Broadcasting my thoughts
The other day I came across a poster encouraging people for organ donation in one hospital.
It read as under:
DONATE YOUR EYES ..
LET THEM SEE THE WORLD.
DONATE YOUR HEART ..
LET IT BEAT FREELY.
DONATE YOUR LUNGS ..
LET THEM BREATHE FRESH AIR.
DONATE YOUR KIDNEYS ..
LET THEM CLEANSE THE WASTE.
DONATE YOUR LIVER ..
LET THEM GO ON METABOLISING.
PLEASE RUSH TO THE NEAREST ORGAN DONATION CENTRE AND DONATE YOUR ORGANS

We behave differently for a given situation for different reasons. I'll take the example of taking a girl to bed.
What is the difference between girls aged: 8, 18, 28, 38, and 48, 58 and 68?
At 8 - You take her to bed and tell her a story.

At 28 - You don’t need to tell her a story to take her to bed.
At 38 - She tells you a story and takes you to bed. 
At 48 - You tell her a story to avoid going to bed. 
At 58 - You stay in bed to avoid her story. 
At 68 - If you take her to bed, that’ll be a story!!
YOUR BEHAVIOUE DEPENDS ON UR AGE

IS WOMAN WISER ????
A few days back, I posted some quotes, which cannot be termed as very complimentary to ladies. To my surprise some ladies read and enjoyed the humour part of the post. There was a request from one of my lady friends to write something regarding gentlemen.
I was pondering over the subject for some time. I came to the conclusion that ladies are smarter and more intelligent than their male counterpart in dealing with a practical situation. Should I call it, 'Practical intelligence?
The following two stories will prove my point:
THE WOMEN WHO HAD CANCER
A woman went to her doctor. The doctor, after an examination, sighed and said, ‘I’ve some bad news. You have cancer, and you’d better put your affairs in order.
‘The woman was shocked, but managed to compose herself and walk into the waiting room where her daughter had been waiting.' Well daughter, we women celebrate when things are good, and we celebrate when things don’t go so well. In this case, things aren’t well. I have cancer. Let’s head to the club and have a martini.’
After 3 or 4 martinis, the two were feeling a little less somber. There were some laughs and more martinis. They were eventually approached by some of the woman’s old friends, who were curious as to what the two were celebrating.
The woman told her friends they were drinking to her impending end.' I've been diagnosed with AIDS.' The friends were aghast and gave the woman their condolences.
After the friends left, the woman’s daughter leaned over and whispered, ‘Momma, I thought you said you were dying of cancer, and you just told your friends you were dying of AIDS.' The woman said, ‘I don’t want any of them sleeping with your father after I’m gone………
‘Now, that’s ‘Putting Your Affairs In Order.
NO WONDER THAT UR WIFE CAN MAKE U SPIN AROUND HER ALL THROUGH UR LIFE

TO ALL MY INTELLIGENT FRIENDS:
I am sending this only to my smart friends. I could not figure it out and had to look at the answer. See if you can figure out what these words have in common.
1. Banana
2. Dresser
3. Grammar
4. Potato
6. Uneven
7. Assess
Are you peeking or have you already given up? Give it another try….
Look at each word carefully. You’ll kick yourself when you discover the answer. This is so cool…..
Answer: If you are thinking that they all have at least 2 double letters…., you are smart, but not quite there.
GIVEN UP !!!
PLEASE SCROLL DOWN
Answer:
In all of the words listed, if you take the first letter, place it at the end of the word, and then spell the word backwards, it will be the same word. Did you figure it out? No? Then send to more people and stump them as well. Then, you’ll feel better too.

MEDICINE
PRACTICAL
EXAMINATION
It is interesting to reminiscent some funny anecdote of younger days. This particular episode relates to my Medicine Practical Exam. I must give you some background regarding the conduct of the examination. Basically a student has to face two cases, one long and one short. You are given enough time for the long case. You take history, do a detailed clinical exam, note down your finding and suggest possible diagnosis. The short case is trickier. You are given only ten minutes and are asked to examine one system thoroughly. There were many long standing patients with rare disorders who were called during the exam for a small remuneration. The Ward Boys (Attendants) of the hospital used to exploit the situation. They knew the patients well and would tell the diagnosis if you could fill his pocket.
One of my previous candidates, Amit Sen (name changed) struck a bargain with the Ward Boy for five Rupees. His patient was a case of Tabes Dorsalis (type of tertiary neuro syphilis) as told by the Ward Boy. He was overjoyed because all the findings of Tabes Dorsalis were at his finger tip.
He did not feel the need of confirming his findings of nervous system examination. As the examiners approached, he started rattling,
"Sir, my patient has tabetic wise man look with wrinkles of forehead and drooping eyelids. He has high steppage gait, Charcot's joints, Argyll Robertson pupils and tropic ulcers in the feet.. Ankle jerk is absent. There is complete loss of joint and vibratory senses".
The examiners listened to him patiently with an impassive ex-pression. When he finished his presentation, they said, "My son, your knowledge of Tabes Dorsalis is outstanding. Unfortunately, this is a case of Parkinsonism (nerve disease involving extra pyramidal system). The previous patient was a case of Tabes Dorsalis"
After this happening, I felt it was too dangerous to depend on the Ward Boy. I approached my patient with trepidation and a fast palpating heart. I was told to examine the cardio vascular system and offer my diagnosis. The patient was grumpy old man. I was not prepared for the rude shock the moment I touched his wrist to feel his pulse. He shouted in an irritated voice, "Stop this nonsense. Don't even touch me. I had enough of it. Before you three to four idiotic monkeys aspiring to be doctors poked my body everywhere and made me sick". I did not know what to do except to put up a long face. I was on the verge of tears. It was certain that I would not be able to clear my medicine that time. I prayed to have a more cooperative patient or a more reliable Ward Boy next time. For reasons unknown to me, the old man softened and took pity on me.
He said, "Look here my boy. You are a simpleton. You don't seem to be as roughish like the others. Please don't try to examine me. Listen to me carefully and repeat the same to the examiner".
Then he said like a parrot, "I'm a case of Mitral Stenosis with Auricular Fibrillation and Congestive Cardiac Failure. My pulse is irregularly irregular. I have raised JVP (neck venous pressure) and pedal oedema. Liver is tender and just palpable. Mild degree of ascetic fluid is present. In aortic area, there is loud split second sound. In mitral area, mid diastolic murmer along with an opening snap and pre systolic accentuation is present. The murmer is conducted towards axilla".
He took a pause and added, "I would advise you to omit the opening snap and split second sound. Many of the MD candidates miss it.
I had really no other option but to repeat the same as told by the old man verbatim to the examiner. As advised by him I omitted the opening snap and split second sound. When asked by the examiner whether the opening snap and split second sound were present, I humbly replied that I expected them to be present but could not hear them clearly. The examiner smiled and said, "Well done". I don't know how much of it was due to my borrowed knowledge and how much was due to my sincerity. To cap it all I got a distinction in medicine.

You can't call it a conventional Blog.
It may seem like a lecture in Maths.
I published it b'coz I felt there are
so many small little things our
teachers tried to teach us
and we resisted.
IF IT IS NOT USEFUL TO U, IT MAY
BE OF HELP TO
SISTERS, SONS, DAUGHTERS,
GRANDSONS AND GRANDDAUGHTERS.
PRIME NUMBERS
The prime numbers are interesting, whimsical and
mysterious and puzzled the mathematician for centuries.
Although the ancient Egyptians and Chinese had
some ideas of prime numbers, the credit for defining
it goes to the great Greek mathematician Euclid (300 BC).
It obeys no law. The difference between 2 and 3 is 1,
3 and 5 is 2, 7 and 11 is 4, 23 and 29 is 6,
but between 29 and 31 is again 2.
Till today there is no clear cut formula
to define a prime number.
DEFINITION: All of you are aware that
a prime number has two factors 1 and
the number itself.
e.g. 5 is a prime number
since it has only two factors 1 and 5,
where as 6 is a composite number since
its factors are 1,2, 3, and 6.
SOME FACTS ABOUT PRIME NUMBERS:
A. 1. 2 is the only even prime number.
2. All prime numbers except 5 ends in 1,3, 7, or 9.
3. If the differences between two prime numbers are 2,
they are called twin prime.
Examples: 3 & 5, 5 &7, 29 & 31.
4. Composite numbers can be expressed as sum of
two prime numbers.
Example: 100 = 11 + 89
10 = 3 + 7
5. At least there is one prime number between
a prime number
and its double.
6 At least there is one prime number between squares
of two consecutive
numbers.
7. If you add one to the square of an even number, normally
you get a prime
number.
8. If two numbers have no common factors except 1,
they are called co prime.
Example: 9 and 16.
If a number is divisible by two co prime numbers, it will be
divisible by their products also.
9. In any fractional number, if the denominator has
only 2 and 5 as the prime
Factors the decimal fraction will be terminating.
If the denominator has any other prime factors other than 2 and 5,
the fraction will be recurring.
Example: 1/20 is terminating since 20 = 2 x 2 x 5
1/30 is recurring since 30 = 2 x 3 x 5
B. For a long time 1 was considered as a prime number.
Now it is considered neither prime nor composite. It does not
fulfill
all the requirement of prime number.
1. It has only one factor and not two.
2. More importantly, each number has a unique
prime factorization. The balance will be broken
in case 1 is considered prime.
e.g. 30 = 2 x 3 x 5 (Unique)
30 = 1 x 2 x 3 x 5 or
30 = 1 x 1 x 2 x 3 x 5
C. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PRIME NUMBERS:
It is generally seen that the difference between two adjacent
prime numbers increases as the number becomes bigger.
BETWEEN TO NO OF PMIMES PERCENTAGE
1 10 4 40%
1 100 25 25%
1 1000 168 16.8%
99,99,901 1,00,00,000 9
1,00,00,001 1,00,00,100 2 (1,00,00,019 & 1,00,00,079)
D. PRIME NUMBER ENDLESS
The natural question arises that there must be a number
beyond which there is no more prime number.
by a simple mathematics that prime numbers are infinite.
Let us assume that n is the biggest prime number. Next we
multiply all the earlier prime numbers upto n.
2 x 3 x 5 x 7 x 11 x 13 x 17 x . x n
If you add 1 to this number, we shall get a new prime number.
Largest Prime Number so far discovered is : 243112609 ' 1
consisting of 12978183 Decimal digits.
E. FORMULA FOR PRIME NUMBERS:
Various formulas have been framed to get prime numbers,
but none is found to be completely satisfactory.
1. Mersenne's Prime:
2p ' 1 is a prime number, where p is prime.
211 -1 = 2047 is not a prme, because 2047 = 23 x 89
225964951 -1 is a prime (7816830 digit number)
2. Fermat's prime:
2n
2 + 1 is prime, where n is a natural number
True for 1,2,4, but 216 +1 is composite.
3. Chinese Hypothesis:
An integer n is prime if and only if the number 2n -2 is divisible by n.
2341 ' 2 is divisible by 341, although 341 is a composite number
(341 = 11 x 31)
4.
If the number 2n -1 is a prime number, the number 2n-1 (2n ' 1) is a Perfect.
Number i.e. the sum of its factors equals the number. Example 6, 28, 496 .
5. f (n) = n2 'n + 41 yields prime numbers for n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 40, 43,
It yields composite numbers for n = 41 and 42.
6. Sophie Germain Prime:
A prime number p, when (4p + 1) is also a prime
e.g. 3, 7, 53 etc.
7. Goldbach Conjecture:
Even whole number is always the sum of two prime numbers.
8. Factorial Prime:
n! ' 1 is primee for n = 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 30, 32, 33, 38, 94, 166, 324, A002982
n! + 1 is prime for n = 0, 1, 2, 3, 11, 27, 37, 41, 73, 77, 116, 154, 320, A002981
F. HOW TO FIND OUT THE PRIMABITY OF A NUMBER?
1. SIEVE OF ERATOSTHENES:
The most dependable way of finding out a prime number was
outlined by the great Greek mathematician Eratosthenes.
You cross No 1, No 2 & all its multiples, No 3 & all its multiples,
No 5 & all its multiples, and so on with the prime numbers
until the square root of the number.
The other methods are probability primality test. This has the interesting property that if it tells you the number is composite,
then it is definitely composite, though it won’t tell you any of the factors. If it doesn’t tell you the number is composite, however, it only tells you that it is probably prime. The degree of certainty is very high, however to the tune of 99.99%.Some of them are:
2. Fermat's Little Theorem
3. Miller Rabin Test
G. DISTRIBUTION OF PRIME NUMBERS:
If we plot the prime numbers in a circular fashion, it has a
compelling spiral image.
The sum of all prime numbers ending in 1, 3, 7 or 9 in
any repeating samples of prime numbers are roughly equal.
e.g. Upto 5023, there are 671 prime.
Ending in Total No
1 166
3 174
7 167
9 164
H. SOME ORDER AMIDST DISORDER:
Euler introduced a formula showing a direct relationship
between prime numbers and natural numbers.
RELATION BETWEEN PRIME NUMBERS AND NATURAL NUMBERS 1 1 1 1 1 1 + __ + __ + __ + __ + __ + . . . . . . . . . 2n 3n 4n 5n 6n 2n 3n 5n 7n= ________ x _________ x ________ x ________ x . . . . . . . . . . . .2n ' 1 3n ' 1 5n ' 1 7n ' 1
Based on Euler'formula Reimann formed his
famous Zeta Hypothesis. Reimann's Hypothesis: (1859) 1 + _____1_____ + _____1_____ + _____1______ ___ ___ ____20.5 + n/-1 3O.5 + n/-1 50.5 + n/-1
+ ____1______ + . . . . . . . . . .= 0 ____ 70.5 + n/-1His formula has not been proved mathematically, but it has been
tested for various values of n and found to be true.It is not possible to say whether a given number is prime, but one
can calculate the total number of primes upto that number
by Reimann's hypothesis.
Upto 10,000,000,000(10 Billions), there are 455052511 Prime Numbers.Clay Mathematical Institute of USA has declared a cash prize of 1 million dollar for giving a correct mathematical proof for Reimann's Zeta Hypothesis.J. USE OF PRIME NUMBERS:
Apart from their use in mathematical applications, prime numbers
can be useful in commercial commodities because of their
importance in encryption algorithm such as RSA algorithm.
R Schilling obtained US patent for two prime numbers.

My wife is getting operated for Colon Cancer on 3rd Mar 09. I want my islander friends to put a word of prayer to God.
P.S. I’m really grateful to all friends who stood by my side at the time of crisis and offered prayers and best wishes. I offer my sincere thanks from the depth of my heart. Please do not mind I could not individually write to all of you at the moment.
The operation of total transverse colectomy has been successful. My wife has been shifted to General Ward from ICU this afternoon.
