Last Friday night I watched Francois Truffaut's Finally Sunday in UTV World Movies.It is a black white movie with a brilliant combination of film noir and comedy with a tinge of romance.This is the story of Julienne Vercel who is the prime suspect of his wife and her lover's murder and Barbara,Julienne's secretary who tries to prove his innocence.One particular sequence in that movie left me thinking for the past one week.This is the scene where Julienne tells Barbara that his wife's death has become inconsequential in the context of solving the mystery to prove his own innocence.

Uncertainty Principle - Few Thoughts
The "Uncertainty Principle" proposed by Werner Heisenberg in 1927 states that we cannot precisely measure both the position and momentum(velocity) of an electron.This is because we normally observe things as light(photons) bounce back from that object.To observe a tiny particle as an electron we need electromagnetic waves of smaller wavelength like gamma radiations.Now photons of the gamma radiation colliding with a tiny electron can alter it's position and momentum introducing a factor of uncertainty into the measurements.

Few thoughts on language
"Today late afternoon in the illusive shades of the twilight I saw a beautiful lady dressed in white.Someone like the Lady of Shallot.What to say.. Belle de Jour?.I am just not able to find right words to describe"
The above statement is interesting but vague.It tells something at the same time hides away many things.Many of us has come across such a situation where we do not find the right words to express or find that the words we have used are not enough to express what we actually felt.Also there are many occasions where we say something and it gets interpreted in an absolutely different manner.So what ever be the language the words fall short or becomes vague to portray our thoughts in satisfactory and unambiguous fashion.

This week was a rather dismal one.Project issues/problems.Bad news from the financial markets.Future of IT industry looks uncertain and gloomy.Today another massive terrorist attack in Pakistan.God knows how many seals are still left to be opened.
So bored with all these bad news,movie channels repeating same old stuff I started random search using Google and some blog directories(the greatest cognitive tools I have found till date)
