Engg.?We entered the college with lot of dreams,With the first day, came the first shock: NO GIRLS.With this we started the great journey.First half of first year passed getting acquainted;Getting out of school mentality, exploring the campus;Second half entangled in daughters, t-squares, set square, sheets;Eventually ended  by rewriting the drawing rules.Third was the semester of great transformation;Mastering the art of copying assignments,Getting famous for infamous acts;No matter lost only few marks.Then came the fourth semester,The of tech fests, seminars;We were the hearth of all the events;And were rated best till date.Fire began from fifth semester;Suddenly the class was rated the worst ever,And rebels

A dream is being crafted on the dock in Cochin Shipyard. Groups of workers in red and navy blue are shaping a vessel that will make the Indian Navy a truly blue-water force.They are making India’s first Indigenous Aircraft Carrier (IAC).The 22 functional aircraft carriers in the world are owned by nine navies. Only the US, Russia and the UK have built carriers exceeding 40,000 tonnes. India is the fourth country to build a ship in this classWork on the IAC started in November 2006 and 70 per cent of the hull blocks are done. Displacement tests, defining the hull form and structure, space analysis and hydrodynamic modelling have also been completed. The indigenous aircraft carrier project signifies not only an attempt to modernise the Navy, but also a shift in strategy. In the past, India had planned only to counter threats from Pakistan and China. But now it is aiming  at global reach. International maritime laws recognise aircraft carriers as sovereign territories in almost all o

Advanced warning for our Antipodean friends in northern Australia not to panic later today when the sky goes dark and the sun seems to disappear: it’s just a total solar eclipse. As it happens, the best view of it will be in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, so anyone bobbing about in a boat east of New Zealand and directly above Antarctica will enjoy the spectacle for the longest time, but lots of people in countries between NZ and South America will get the chance to see at least a partial eclipse. We love an eclipse here at E&T . When the birds fall silent because they think it’s night time: eerie. Click on the graphic for an expanded view. Total solar eclipse 13-14 November 2012

Every time when one look into a blog or any popular website in the sub-continent or even in the Asia-pacific we could see many discussions in the topic “INDIA OR CHINA”.Patriots from both nations will be joining in and posting their thoughts,and I would like to say that my blog is no different and the motivation to this has certainly come from an book called “SUPER POWER” written by Raghav Bahl,an renowned author and journalist,and one of my favourite CNN-IBN host. So books and mags apart what really makes the difference in these two nations.The first and foremost thing coming to mind will be the nature of  governments, Democratic and communist. Many in the west criticized the way communist handle things and their administration techniques, but unlike other communist missions the Chinese had their own growth model and made sure that their development becomes inclusive. What have we done so wrong which the Chinese did so correctly,simple, we started late. Now, India is a superp

With a bare-bones sticker price of $1.3 million, Suidobashi Heavy Industry will build you a high-tech, robotic suit that might even make Tony Stark a little nervous. Suidobashi’s Kuratas robot stands 13-feet tall and weighs about 6 tons. It comes standard with a leather seat and a “next-generation” V-Sido robot operating system, which allows the pilot to move the this gigantic bot’s arms and drive it around at a speed of six miles per hour. Weapon systems such a pair of BB-firing mini guns cost extra (Click below to see the super suhweet video). The diesel-powered Kuratas can also be controlled remotely through a 3G network.

Having already celebrated the Pacific total solar eclipse earlier today, now seems like as good a time as any to punt these two space-related graphics out there for all to enjoy. It’s all about looking up in to the sky and getting big stuff up there,  For your delectation and edification, we present the new generation of super-telescopes (begging the question as to why everything has to be super these days, whether it’s storms or telescopes) and the European Space Agency’s next-generation heavy-lift rockets. They don’t come cheap, you know. Click on the graphics for an expanded view. New generation of super-telescopes

A Puff Of Dust India’s collective memory plays strange tricks. British Raj no longer evokes outrage or indignation in India, within a few decades after the end of colonial rule. The same British Raj, who were overseers of India’s rapid decline from the richest economy to the poorest in a short span of 100 years. Britain’s rapid decline after the loss of India rarely registers on Indian minds. Inspite of a nuclear neighbourhood, defence issues are not electoral hot-buttons in India’s mind-scape. China and Pakistan apart, the three other nuclear powers, (USA, Britain, France) also have military presence in India’s immediate vicinity. In India’s collective memory, its remarkable rise from the Great Bengal Famine of 1941 to overflowing food godowns in 2011 is lost in the media  din and NGO activism . But then, this par for the course, for  a society that keeps re-indexing  even heroes like Raghu Ramachandra and Yadu Krishna. Walk The Talk … 65 years later, after the end of c
