RAIN: A SPECIAL FEELING

Rain is the best thing which helps us cherish every lovely moment of our lives…When it rains…The earth becomes a paradise… and watching it from my windowpane is a special feeling….The pure smell of dry earth giving forth its intoxicating aroma when moistened by rain is deeply enshrined in the heart. Yes, listening to the rain drops, fall on the tree leaves… it’s magnificent… a heavenly feeling fills every living soul. The feeling is as passionate as falling in love. When I miss my love with all my might… the rain brings me all lovely thoughts soothing my heart…

Rain….on my Windowpane

There I watch the rain…
        From my window pane

The pitter-patter of those drops…
        Dripping down the tree tops

How it clatters along the roofs…
Like the tramp of hoofs

The cool breeze blows along…
        Adding rhythm to the holy song

The rain….
Showering down my windowpane…

My heart turns gray…
As I long for yesterday

When I looked into your eyes…
        Revealing the refrained love…
       
Listening to the rain…. on my windowpane……….

I know that I need you…
        In the time that I stray

But Now I stand alone….
        And watch for the rainbow

Then those sweet words take hold
        Open your eyes to the love around you…

You may feel you’re alone
But I’m still here with you

You can do what you dream
Just remember… to listen to the rain…
………on my windowpane

Just reinforce my belief (after I read it see here) that most of the innovative concepts in the EDA industry come from graduate research. And the big sharks buy them. Thats understandble in a way I guess. Calls for more industry acedemia relationship?

Point to myself—-gotta understand how the EDA industy acedemia relationship is currently structured.

and yeah….long live the start-up business model. :P

Hmm….that a bit disheartening isn’t it? But then again this is a personal space for me rather than a business opportunity. Again this is nothing but just indicative of how many ppl are linking to your blog  i think

 

I have been reading on a lot of things regarding ad-sense and I can understand that there is a lot of money to be made….if you are really serious about it….but I guess I have got bigger fish to fry ;)

 

Well check it out for your blog

Clock buffer vs Ord Buffer

Filed under: TECHbabble — cafm @ 10:18 pm May 14, 2007

OK….I just caught this at a news group….with this adsense thing and all I feel like posting more and more :P i guess it will take 2-3 days for this wear out ;)
Ok…what the difference between a clock buffer and a ordinary buffer?
Clock buffers are generally designed so as to give 50% duty cycle hence equal rise time and fall time…where as ordinary buffers are not
Also power is a important consideration since 40% of power of a chip can be lost in its clock tree network.
enthusiastic rant over :)

Greedy greedy….

Ahem…after all the initial hypocrisy regarding google adsense I am finally decided to join it :P

Yeah yeah I know both sides of the little guy argument…on one hand it makes it possible for even the little guy to have a good revenue stream and on the other hand mostly the "little" guy will mostly not have enough clicks/impressions generate any worthwhile revenue….:P

But then again, its not the first time I am signing up for a affiliate program. When I was in 11th standard I had signed up for commissions central with my teenznet(?).50g.com. it had no content what so ever except for bare bones HTML and some clipart’s from the net. Having not much idea about cookies and all that stuff I remember waking up early in the morning at 4-5 ,since the phone calls cost less then, and signing up for langoo.com and all that :P to get the referral money. They played along with me till the 25 magic figure was hit at that moment they sent me a violation mail and unceremoniously kicked me out…..I deserver it I guesss

BUT This time around I believe myself to be much wiser and more importantly….ITS NOT ABOUT THE MONEY ….ok ok let my try to believe that myself by saying it out loud few more times….P. But truthfully speaking…its never not about the money….but at least this time its not ONLY about the money, actually in the priority list it comes pretty late. Its more about having a online presence and oh yeah…wishful thinking makes me believe that google adwords have become so much a part of the web that my blog looks better? with it on it…..more internety or whatever….

By the  way since I joined this anyway…i did some googling and found out that there is a chance that I might not get any money unless some one clicks on the links….dont know if its true…but it seems reasonable…but then again other say that you do earn for just impressions(that for just loading the site in layman terms) on a per thousand impressions basis….but that would be ttttttttoooooo low…..

So anyways…will update on what kind of dough I get from this….if any…..he he
