A Duck affair and the world year of physics.
So i had this duck once way back into the 90’s. I loved it so much. Then one day it was killed by a “Shial” or “Jakle” (which has itselt become an almost-extinct species). After that the ducks i’ve seen were only in my dining table.Those simple days were so mesmerising. Thats why i’ve named this cyber-duck “chor” or “thief” cuz it stole away one of my most precious,one of my most cherished memories in my life.
PS:Feed it by clicking the “more” button and then feeding em the bread. You can also poke the duck by clicking on it and see what happens

Eh, i almost forgot about todays dedication….
Dedication:
Today’s dedication is towards the greatest bangali Physicist the world has never actually heard of.
A man so immensely talented, so paradigmatic in his research and so incredibly stupid that he’s legacy is almost forgotten. A man so deviant, so in search of the truth and yet so foolish in nature…a guy who was so sleek with the realms of physics , so energetic with inventions and yet so paranoid about being anonymous…yes i’m talking about none other than Acharjo Sir Jagdish Chandra Bose . The year 2005 has been declared as “WORLD PHYSICS YEAR(yeah up yours chemistry!)”..and in this year none but the great J.C Bose comes to our mind when we ask ourselves “what have we done for physics and the linear world we live in”…im quite proud to be born in the same city, “Mymensingh” where this protege was born. Check out more about him over HERE. Alas his foolishness deprived him of the international recognition he and his country deserved. Serves him right, cuz usually (i’m saying usually cuz if i say -’always’ then another heated discussion would sprung up blaming me for treason and stuff like that
) talented beings ar not considered worth caring and funding for in Bangladesh. For example, if a BUET team has developed an alternate and more efficient way to utilize Nickel-metal hydride cells (Ni-MH cells) they seldom get the funding necessary to continue their work….but lets say if some student-leader need a lot of money to buy a 0.5 bore sniper rifle like a machhata-56 lX , he’s instantly granted that renumeration. I know , i know..i shouldn’t be pissed of at BD all the time…but people always mistake my somewhat ciphered messages…i never hated the land..but i hated those who dwell and wreck havoc in it.



I always wondered who J C Bose was as my Dad always mentions him in terms of Bengali Luminaries. I was only in Desh at about the age of 9/10. But you know regular trips back made me appreciate it for what it is. Thanks for dropping by. Your blog makes some interesting reading.

Nice to hear that people abroad still mention visionaries like “J.C.Bose” as “Bangladeshis to heed homage towards”….the sheer shock of seeing Khaleda Zia or Sheikh Hasina’s name on the list of the “top 10 living Bengali” is so excruciating. How can we even think of awarding political vamps who have plagued our land with so much wretchedness….guess we dont think before we act… Actually the Bangladeshis worth mentioning are long dead..and those who actually got the recognition had to either buy it out or use “the force”(much like master windu…but for the dark side) to attain that renumeration.
