Interested about the picture? Autonomous experimental design allows us to answer the question of where to take the measurements. More about it is here...

Hobbies

I addition to the research, I also like to hike, bike, read and play with water color.

Get Ubuntu in your system


One thing I like about my Ubuntu is its color selection.
Pretty warm and nice.
Get a copy of Ubuntu for free! from: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/GetUbuntu/download.

Ubuntu is an African word meaning 'Humanity to others', or 'I am what I am because of who we all are'.

I am sure that you will also love it.

Heading for MaxEnt 2008, Brazil: Today!

I am visiting Brazil for one week to participate in a conference:
MAXENT2008.

http://www.brastex.info/maxent2008/


There, I will be presenting my works.
Last year, MAXENT2007 was held in Saratoga Springs, NY. I was also a part of it as a local organizer. The conference brings a lot of international scientist from different fields into a common place to discuss their works and progresses made during the year. This enables a one-to one interaction with the dignified scientists in the respective field.

I will be flying from JFK, NY, USA to Sao Paulo, Brazil : tonight at 10PM.
WISH ME ALL THE BEST!!!

Nepali Physics Students' Group in Facebook

Greetings!!!

Facebook has been proved to be a great place to hang out. I like it because I can find friends and friends of friends whom I had meet but had no clue on how to contact them (as we could not exchange the email address).

Recently, Pashupati Dhakal et. al. has created a group in facebook.
If you have facebook account and you are a nepali physics student, Please join the group.

Please visit the group by clicking the link below or Please copy and paste the following address in your browser:

Now we have Three genuine groups:
Google Group of Nepal Physical Society
Yahoo Group of Nepali Physicists aboard
Facebook Group of Nepali Physics Students
(apologies, if I missed any)

Great!!!

A Robot Conductor in Stage!

I know, it is all about pre-programmed robot in the video below.
But we all go into training to get ourselves into some familiar sequence of nice notes. That is also a kind of programming. I found a video in which the robot Asimo directing people as a conductor in a nice stage program.

Many people may find trouble to work under robot.
Oh, actually you can find humans working as robots whenever you call to the 1-800 numbers which are usually equipped with real people trained to behave as robot.
The debate on whether robots are going to outsmart people will continue.
Enjoy the video.
