Exposure Trip 2010

The CyberTech Club under the Department of Computer Science organized an exposure program for all its members (students and teachers).
The 24th September 2010, was a day well started with the beauty of sunlight. All the teachers and students of the department gathered in the college campus very much excited to start the tour. At 10:00 a.m. we all started off from the college and travelled by bus firstly to Don Bosco Museum, Mawlai.
We all seem to be wanderers in our own motherland and discovered many things reaching there. The museum for us was actually like a treasure house. We were really amazed to see wonderful and different galleries in the museum. Some of them are-The Pre-history gallery, The Basketry gallery, Land and People’s gallery, Musical instruments gallery, Costumes and ornaments gallery and many more beautiful galleries. We could find the joy of being there in everyone’s face and all were praising the beauty of the museum.
We experienced a skywalk and we could see everyone was becoming photogenic in that place. We came to an end of our discovery in the museum and as we were praising its beauty, our stomach was singing side by side. We then realized we were very hungry.
Coming out of the museum, we didn’t at once were able to fulfill our stomach needs. Mr. Rain started and did not agree to stop. Then our lovely teachers gave an idea to have lunch in the open-air stadium in N.E.H.U. Campus. We all were really happy to see the place. We then move on for lunch. We felt like we all as a family were having lunch in a big dining hall.
“Sharing is Loving”. We could really see that bond among teachers and students. Our teachers were really amazing. We had lunch together and wow! What a variety of items we could see, can’t stop without tasting all. Come on…’Variety Is The Spice Of Life’.
Finally the rain stopped and we continued with our journey towards Computer Center. We were really amazed to see the Super Computer, PARAM SHEERSH. Well how lucky we are that the Super Computer is here in our state and we are lucky to see it.
After Computer Center, we then move on to Science Center. We felt like we were entering another world-Of course ‘A World Of Science’. Many wonders of science what we just heard, the exposure programme gave us a vision to all what we have read. Everything inside the Center was so well displayed that we all were attracted to the Wonders of Science.
The sun was nearly setting and we set off back to our college. On the way inside the bus we were having the time of our life. We danced and danced and danced to every rocking music that was played till it seems that an earthquake was shaking our bus.
Finally, our journey came to an end when we reached our college with lots of “Thank You” and “Bye bye” that we said to each of our teachers and friends.
Oh!! What a wonderful and memorable day that was. Hope we would be able to experience some more wonderful journeys in the coming days.

THANKS TO THE CYBERTECH CLUB, DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE.

A Lovely Day - By Meboreen M. Thongni

Early morning, I smiled and say,
Thank you Lord for this beautiful day;
With a new beginning, I left behind,
All my worries and frightened mind.

Along the day, I smiled and say,
What an experience I gained from yesterday;
What pain I met, for failures I wept,
It seems to me like I am dead.

No dark cloud remains forever,
Time changes and so does weather;
I smiled and thank, for yesterday
I learned to overcome a darkened way.

I started to understand the beauty of life;
Is full of joy; I tried to strive,
I started to laugh, to dance and sing,
It made me happy, and pleasures it brings.

I end up the day and continued to say,
Thank you Lord for the wonderful day,
The day showed me a different way;
And so I called it “ A Lovely Day”.

OUR THOUGHTS REALLY MATTERS

Suppose if Sir Isaac Newton would divert his thought to something else, not questioning the fall of apple. What would happen?
There would be no “law of gravity”.
What I want to show here is that we should not be misled. We should stick to our high goal. We should not follow the world. We are here to live for ourselves, for our own happiness.
Happiness which is far better from what the world can give.

The world can give satisfactions but it will be momentary. Regrets after regrets, confusion after confusion will follow us.
Just imagine if M.K. Gandhi would follow the world and lived a comfortable life, we wouldn’t have enjoyed Independence.
If Mother Teresa would be happy with luxurious things, the world won’t know her. If Abraham Lincoln falls out with several failures and lose heart, give up his career. The greatest leader would never be found. If Sachin Tendulkar listen to his pain and exhaustion and deny to play the next. He would not have been the best batsman in the world.
Well pleasures are not only found in fashions, drinks, music, dances, drugs, money and comforts. Satisfaction can be found somewhere else if we give time to listen and dare to think different.
Fear must be overcome and we should dare to think different. We might be rejected and one day we ourselves will rejoice for that. Do things which are not for rewards but for happiness in your life. Make a change. Set your dreams on high grounds. You’ll have less time to waste, less time to hate and judge but maximum time to shape your dreams.
Possibility is in our mind, our thought and our will. Mind is the finest resource of earth from all ages. But even the most intelligent person here on earth uses only 1/100 percent of its capacity. So there’s lot of space where we can still work wonders. And all these depend on our thoughts.
So to make or act different we need to THINK DIFFERENT!
Hence “OUR THOUGHTS REALLY MATTERS”

Is Windows a virus?

With the recent problems being encountered by Windows users all across the country, people are begin to ask themselves if windows is a virus. In response to the high demand for an answer to that question a study was done and concluded the following.

1. Viruses replicate quickly.
Windows does this.

2. Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so.
Windows does this.

3. Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk.
Windows does this.

4. Viruses are usually carried, unkown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems.
Windows does that too.

5. Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware.
Same with Windows, yet again.

Maybe Windows really is a virus.

Nope! There is a difference!

Viruses are well supported by their authors, are frequently updated, and tend to become more sophisticated as they mature. So there! Windows is not a virus.

Computer: A male or female?

A language instructor was explaining to her class that in French, nouns, unlike their English counterparts, are grammatically designated as masculine or feminine.
"House," in French, is feminine = "la maison."
"Pencil," in French, is masculine = "le crayon."
One puzzled student asked, "What gender is 'computer'?"
The teacher did not know, and the word wasn't in her French dictionary. So for fun she split the class into two groups, appropriately enough by gender, and asked them to decide whether "computer" should be a masculine or feminine noun.
Both groups were required to give four reasons for their recommendation.
The men's group decided that computers should definitely be of the feminine gender ("la computer"), because:
  1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;
  2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else;
  3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long-term memory for possible later retrieval; and
  4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.
The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be masculine ("le computer"), because:
  1. In order to get their attention, you have to turn them on;
  2. They have a lot of data but they are still clueless;
  3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; and
  4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you'd waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.
(Sociologically, this seems like a good example of a pervasive technology serving as a mirror to spoof cultural attitudes.)
