Littlewood's law:

You know that I was studying this topic called Synchronocity and antisynchronocity. For layman.. Synchronocity* means how certain things are so coincidental that they are beyond explanation. As if they were meant to be… and Anti Synchronocity means how the exact opposite happen and It is so coincidental that everytime things are parallel, They just happen to be the opposite..

Well on my study on the same subject, I recently came across an interesting article called the littlewoods law, which states that an average individual can expect a miracle to happen at the rate of one per month.. And there is a mathematical proof for it as well.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Littlewood%27s_law

And this miracle though seemingly miraclous for most people, occurs with a reason. :D

Def: Synchronicity

Synchronicity is an interconnection with the Universe with an underlying web of linkages that brings people and events together in a way not based in a traditional comprehension of causality (cause and effect)


PS: read also the " The full Circle " blog on http://sathishxls.blogspot.com/2005_07_01_sathishxls_archive.html

Squaring the circle

Do you know that it is impossible to square the circle, that is, it is impossible to construct, using compass and straightedge alone, a square whose area is equal to the area of a given circle.

And the reason behind it is that.. π(PI) is transcendental. This means that there is no polynomial with rational coefficients of which π(PI) is a root. An important consequence of the transcendence of π(PI) is the fact that it is not constructible. Because the coordinates of all points that can be constructed with compass and straightedge are constructible numbers, it is impossible to square the circle, since π is the ratio of the circumference of the circle to the diameter.

And the reason why I am suddenly interest in Pi is because I was born on March 14th. ( can you see the relationship). And the same day Albert Einstein was born exactly 99 years ago.. Thus my interest. :)

Punch me and I'll Bleed.

Have you seen spider man 2. Saw it the fifth time yesterday,

You know what's in the movie, it’s a story about how poor Spidey looses everything, (but only till the climax where he gets everything back and much more) , but anyway when he loses things what happens is

§ He does bad in studies ( though he is very intelligent) - Just like me
§ Mid way thru the movie, he no longer can fly - Just like me, I never could.
§ Again mid way thru he can no longer climb walls - Just like me, I only climb stairs.
§ He wears a specs- just like me.
§ His best friend is Mary Jane, who doesn’t know - hmm just like me
§ He lives all alone in a big city - Just like me in B'lore now.
§ He hates evil- yuck, just like me, I too hate evil.
§ He is good and smart looking- I am good and Ok I am somewhere there on the smart looking part. ( and I wont accept whatever you say)

And before I feel that's where the similarity ends, cause then in the movie suddenly he receives his powers all again and becomes spidey again. And I am just Sathish, old ( ok not so old, quite young) Sathish Muthu.

and just as peter parker tells MJ.

"Punch me and I’ll bleed."
