(HAVE A GRIN) Engineers V Doctors.

7 Engineers and 7 Doctors are travelling from PUNE to Mumbai.
So they, both groups, gather at Pune Station.
Both groups are desperately trying to prove their superiority and outsmart eachother.


SCENE 1 (PUNE- MUMBAI) :

7 engineers take only 1 Ticket and 7 doctors buy all 7 tickets.
Doctors are desperately waiting for TC to come.
When TC arrives,
All 7 Engineers get in one toilet So when TC knocks , one hand come out with the ticket and the TC goes away.
NOW on return Journey All of them don't get a direct train to PUNE. So they all decide to take a Passenger till Lonavala, from there they can easily get a LOCAL to Pune.


SCENE 2 (MUMBAI - LONAVALA) :


Doctors decided, " this time we will prove that we too are equal ". All 7 Doctors take 1 Ticket. Engineers don't buy any ticket at all!
The TC arrives.

ALL DOCTORS IN ONE TOILET. ALL ENGINEERS IN THE OPPOSITE ONE!!

One engineer gets out and knocks the door of Doctors toilet, One hand comes with the tickets, he takes the ticket and comes in Engineer's Bathroom.

TC DRIVES out ALL the doctors from the toilet and they are heavily fined!

SCENE 3 ( LONAVALA) :

SO now both the group r on LONAVALA station. Doctors planning their move for last chance, they board the local to Pune.
This time doctors decide that they will play the same(1 ticket) trick.
ALL Doctors take 1 tickets...Engineers BUY all 7 tickets this time,
SO TC Comes.
All Engineers showed their tickets...

...and Doctors are still searching for toilet in the LOCAL train.!!


Conclusion: Technically intelligent people are genius, but don't mess with Engineers !!!

Did you throw your frozen pizzas out yet?

Posted by Robin Mather Jenkins at 10:35 a.m. CDT

By now, you’ve probably heard that 5 million frozen pizzas, most sold under General Mills’ Totino’s and Jeno’s labels, have been recalled because of an e. coli contamination problem in pepperoni that was produced by an outside contractor. If you haven’t heard, you can read the Tribune story.

As of this writing, the 21 lab-confirmed cases have affected people here in Illinois, and in Missouri, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Virginia, South Dakota and Wisconsin. At least 10 people have been hospitalized.

Not to toot my own horn (much), but in Good Eating’s cover story this week, "Takeout, Take That!," I included instructions on how to make a pretty darned good pizza at home. For the time being, though, it might be a good idea to skip the pepperoni and substitute ham, sausage (or just vegetables) instead.

(Formal Version, NO Slang) The Day when I visited the Indian Navy...

...was the 22nd of August and was one of the most exiting days of the semester for the few students, including me, who were chosen to pay a visit to the Indian Navy Warships, who extended their invitation to the IIS-Jubail and the Indian Diplomatic Community and were docked at the Jubail Commercial Port which’s just across our locality.

After getting the school for grouping, we headed off to our allotted buses, and departed to the point were the INS Kaput and INS Betwa were anchored. Before entering the port we underwent a security check which demanded us to get off the ride. After making sure that we had no “Boom-Boom” devices, the security forces let us in. The port which is one the biggest and busiest port of the kingdom was incredibly big and expansive.

Several Cargo Ships and good vessels were anchored at the port and the loading\offloading process was in full swing. After an approx. 2-mile ride inside, we arrived at the berth where Capt. A.K. Jain and Capt. Ajay Bhutanis’s destroyers were relaxing. The very first glimpses of the ships had a “jaw-dropping” effect on everybody. It was the first time, that I saw these fiery warships from a close-up. We got off our buses and shaped ourselves into teams, which were guided by class-advisors. As we came closer we were able to hear the roaring voices of the engines which kept the ships and its crew alive.

Our group was first taken to INS Betwa, a Class II frigate equipped with the latest thingamajigs and weapons. It was designed by the Indian Navy: Directorate of Naval Design was programmed to be an anti-submarine frigate and was commissioned into the Indian Navy in 2004. As ships do not die its ancestor, the previous INS Betwa had participated in the 1971 war against Pakistan. The feel on the dock of the ship was awesome and as we climbed, we were welcomed by some of the crew members who wore white navy outfits with some weird-colored badges and stuff. Pilot Engineer D. Prem began briefing us about the magnificent frigate and its tools.

The most striking weapon was the tank-like movable turret gun which would fire shots as well as warning ones and behind it was the radar controlling the gun. Huge networks of steel chained were used to anchor this 20000 tons vessel. Everything on board was extraordinary and peculiar. As we moved to the second deck, the guy, Mr. Prem, tutored us about how the missile batteries function and unleash their latent fury. When I forwarded him a question regarding the range of the projectile, he smiled and informed me that it was supposed to be kept as a secret in a foreign land. (We somehow got to know the range, which was 150kms) The powerful missiles were guided by the radar located at the top of the main cockpit and could be even be altered into heat-seeking ones. “A right hit would blow 80% damage to the enemy target” said Pilot Prem, gesturing as he spoke.

After explaining more about the same we moved ahead. At this point, the neighboring vessel, the INS Rajput’s naval bands began to hit the notes and started playing the Indian National Anthem, which pumped patriotism into our hearts for a while. This was when our tutor informed us about the band and that it was the Navy’s best band. After moments of standing still and hearing them, we went on with our “investigation”. We inspected how the missile batteries were positioned and drew out picture in our mind about the reloading-process.

The next important “must-see” component was the main ship cockpit deck or the control panel which features the most important component: the chair of the powerful frigate Captain. As we entered the towering cockpit, we were set aback by the interior looks of it: Numerous Networks of cables and cords for controlling the whole of the vessel, Enormous Compass and other measuring and calculating devices, 4-5 semi-super computers for helping and assisting them in their computation. Quite Amazingly, the vessel’s ‘insides’ were kept very cool powered by the ship’s A/C Units. When, I asked them why they jus can’t pull down their normal windows was when they replied that it would turn the ship into an Iron Box. I now used my physics-inspired mind to understand the logic. << Conduction

He, the guide, began explaining the ship goodies and how they are made to function. After spending some minutes in the cockpit, we decided to leave and head for the main shed (...don’t know what they call it, so used the word “shed”, because it looked like storage shed). They Navy men had arranged some kind of party there exclusively for us, It seemed. We hurried downstairs to the main mast enjoying the attractive view of the Jubail waters.

We reached the ‘shed’ and this time we were dumbfounded by...

...a combat Helicopter!

The Reason of my excitement was probably because I never saw a helicopter on a Water-Vessel. The last time I saw a helicopter when the SWAT teams were called in to exterminate the terrorists who had killed 5 people in Yanbu in 2005. Then, snipers, as my building was a tall one in the area, climbed up and shot them from there. This had happened after I returned from School. I was really exited seeing the firing going outside and then the bomb disposal teams defusing the bomb package. Well...enough of that, let’s get back.

They, the navy dudes had arranged some kind of party there. With some cookies in one hand a cup of orange juice in the other, I had my day. I quickly quaffed the drink down as the temperature that day exceeded 40 C. It was an excellent feeling, but it went heartbreaking as soon we were announced that we had to part off.

The ‘men in white’, stood in a line resembling the ‘guard of honor’ as the school teams began ‘ejecting’ off the vessel. They bid us farewell while we were busy pulling their snapshots into the cameras. So, finally we were off board.

After minutes of walking to our buses, I found myself sitting back in bus. As the bus began its ‘exit’ tour I turned my head as much as I could to take the last glimpse of the frigates.

We were encountered with another security check and after that we just ‘bussed’ to the place, where else...

...The same old school!!

Sorry!

We r really sorry for small 'particles' of spelling errors in articlez. usually while writin, we don't take much notice, Butwhile readin them after postin, feel to bored to edit them again!

Sorry Again, Huh

-La Communiqué™

Not Really!!

Oh! I jus discovered, that the news of Ambani becumin the world riched guy is inaccurate. So take it easy, my article down there titled "The mos' moneyed guy in Pitiable India".

Media, when I does not get anythin to play wit, It pickz up some: thing, body ..etc n makez a BIG deal outta it.

What a Shame! Media.

Shut Down

Thatz the verb I m gonna perform on “La Communiqué” soon.

I logged on 2 ‘wordpress.com’ the other day, n waz overwhelmed by the way it waz organized and its every ‘nut-n-bolt’ is well-defined. Well thatz definitely NOT the case with the other bloogin spaces like blogger, live journal etc.

So I hav at the end of the day made my mind...

...to switch to Wordpress.com, n start postin there. The features talked frankly about the idea of startin a blog with the same.

Blogger.com on the other hand is well short of features like Privacy Options, Sidebar Widgets, Multiple Blogging, multiple pages n much more.

The transition may take sum time as I got to export, but with Wordpress on my, therz nutin to worry. Meanwhile, I gotta start reading my coursework as my examinations are nearby (in Dec. 07). So, I can cum back right after that n can unleash a new look of “La Communiqué 2” on a new domain, www.wordpress.com.

Gud Luk to my SELF, for the Examination n the exporting!

Grand

Did ya'll c the Oil Prices climbin the graph up. Itz US$94.40 a barrel, MAN!

Lookz liek the US$100 Mark not too far!

Oil Producin countries mus' b enjoyin while the poorer ones gotta shell out more buckz for less MUGs of Crude

The mos’ moneyed guy in the world in Pitiable India!??

Is the gossip goin around here about Mukesh Ambani becoming the richest man in world accurate? Well, I waz jus surfin around online wen I came across a website screenin that famed Indian tycoon, Mukesh Ambani is worth a whooping US$63.2 billion, overtaking the celebrated Architect of Microsoft, Bill Gates who is now worth US$62.29 Billion. I was stunned beyond measure, cuz of the fact that India, jus 4 decades ago used to breathe with the aid of USA and is still the country listed as the mos’ loaned country.

Guess itz due to the recent high Oil Prices, [As high as US$92.2 a barrel] by which, Reliance Industries, primarily related to the Oil sector, mus’ hav gained a great deal. I consider this weird cuz India is considered as one of the mos’ poor nations n has its 25-30% children malnourished.

This gap between the rich n the poor is gonna increase unless the government, the high-class, the local society steps to root this menace n filth out of the INDIAN SCENE. Now this Ambani dude probably earns about US$280 per sec. while sum people don’t even make a rupee in the same time. The rich get richer while the poorer get poorer.

I hope Mr. Mukesh Ambani understand this n uses his fraction, if not half, of his fortune for a gud cause, so as the other “Top-Cheese” in the country.

Trendz...

In my 365.25 approx. dayz of readin an’ understandin blogs, newspapers, articles, posts…, I’ve cum to a conclusion that mos’ of the bloggers (duh, not all!!) follow a particular theme for when postin articlez. Then, the’re more inclined to postin in agreement to the blog theme. The themes may only restrict their wits to only think, construe and put pen to paper, only selected articles. Likewise, writers and poets too follow a suit.

Perhaps, it might be the feelin of bein dissimilar to the other bloggin competitors or maybe because of their “wanna-be” nature.

To prop up my second opinion, lemme giv ya’ll an paradigm of my ‘opposite of foe!!”, . He is indeed a real, big, supernatural, extraordinary, astonishin chap, who probably think only about the IT all 24X7. When he cum’s across a guy who is willin to listen to him, he launches his IT blah, blah, blah…outta his “oral cavity”. He once was very pissed off @ me, for != not listen his story =, about overclockin the graphics cards. I totally do NOT oppose his continually lectures about computers, but whos gonna pay attention to somethin ur interest rates @ at a moderate level? I sit next to this guy an’ now he’s in a “CODE RED” mode with me, but the other ‘Charles Babbages’ in my classspace respect him a lot. I named him “Binary Agent” and probabaly the entire school knows him as “THE HACKER”. While hez not from the “i-mind” sort, people crack hilarious stories against him.

Now, this fella is one of the many men who restrict themselves, interests, desires and hobbies to only selected subjects…and there are many who have the same ‘gene’. This is one of the many factors why many people don’t get lured towards majority of the blogs in spite of they bein hosted on top domains.
