नेपालको संविधान, २०७२ को प्रारम्भिक मस्यौदामा मेरो सुझाव:

१. नेपाल धर्म निरपेक्ष्य हैन हिन्दू राष्ट्र नै हुनुपर्छ।
२ स्थनिय निकाये देखि प्रधामन्त्रि सम्म नै प्रतक्ष्य निर्बचित् हुनु पर्नेछ।
३. समानुपातिक सांसद खारेज हुनुपर्ने ।
४. सबैले शिक्षामा समान अवसर पाउनु पर्ने र योग्यताको आधारमा मात्र पदोन्नति गरिनुपर्छ।
५. मौलिक अधिकारको ग्यारेन्टी ।
६. सभासद् तथा मन्त्रि हुनको लागि सैक्षिक् योग्यता को सिमा निर्धारन् गरिनुपर्छ।

Rebar couplers/mechanical splice

Mechanical rebar connections, also known as mechanical splices, are used to join lengths of rebar together. Building code requirements for masonry construction now require longer lap lengths for some bar sizes.
Rebar Coupler:
These changes mean more congestion in masonry cells and more difficult construction. To alleviate this problem, builders can either use open-cell blocks, which are more expensive, or use mechanical rebar couplers to eliminate the lap. Reinforcing bar coupling has all of the features desirable in a rebar joining system combined with unequalled simplicity of installation. Couplers are designed to splice the same diameter bars where one bar is free to move and can be rotated.
Benefits of using a mechanical rebar connection include:
A self-aligning taper-threaded design provides continuity and structural integrity
Spliced bars behave as continuous lengths of reinforcing steel bars by providing full strength in tension and compression and stress reversal applications
Quick and easy to install
Develops higher tensile strength than lap splicing in reinforced concrete.

She lurks in the dark (against_poverty)

That gloomy afternoon
I saw stains that smelt of raw poverty
And her eyes, mist of the colour grey
Dark grey. 
I saw her firmly framing her blackened curves
Saw her covering her slashed heart
With a pint of hatred the world gifts
A pint of pity

A slap of volunteered abuse


An ounce of serenity.
That gloomy afternoon
I watched her
As she silently fought against her own stained fate
As she armoured herself for a battle she could never win
The victory belonged to her
Yet it was a battle she would never win......

World Highest Suspended bridge from HFL(Kushma-Gyadi Bridge)

Kushma-Gyadi Bridge/Kushma-Katuwachaupari Bridge/Modi River Bridge Kusma Located at                                         Parbat District, Nepal of 384 feet high / 117 meters high and 1,128 foot span / 344 meter span Announced at the beginning of 2008 and completed in early 2010, the huge Kushma-Gyadi catenary suspension footbridge is one of the world’s highest of its type. Crossing 384 feet (117 mtrs) above the Madi River, the trail bridge is also one of Nepal’s longest with a span of 1,128 feet (344 mtrs).
The map shows the probable location of the bridge crossing just south of Kusma over the unmarked Modi River gorge. The mighty Kali-Gandaki River lies just to the west.

Another 2 jolts of Rocking Earthquake @11:34 PM @ Kathmandu


A moderate earthquake hit the Kathmandu Valley at 11:40 pm on Friday night, sending people out of their homes.
                its almost about 2:20 am............ but the fear of Earthquake at this night was still hunting me and it might be hunting to many other people as well. US geographical survery claimed that the 4.9 RS-magnitude quake that hit almost all Surrounding ktm valley including it was one of the terrible one .
             After shock many people came into road. Along with many destruction some people injured as well.  Life was like stopped in some point, phone lines were dead, electricity was cut and mind was blank. People say and talk about safety methods about the earthquake, but i realized, how helpless you get in front of Nature. Living in the narrow lanes inside this deepnagar tole at Koteshwor was so scary, and hearing the sounds from the walls, roofs, seeing the mud coming down, shaking the windows pannels/study tabel/door really scared me a lot. 
check the picture out which i didn't click myself but i had collected  from some source  & thought that should keep it,
Location Map

M 4.5+Earthquakes(68 Earthquakes / past 7 days)

So Stay Safe ......Be happy :)

Looking for my Parallel Universe!




The Quantum Theory is something that technical, scientific and any-big-term-phobic ‘me’ would generally stay miles away from. Heck, I don’t even know if it is more concerned with science or technology or both. But I’ll tell you what my modest ‘big-on-advice-n-little-on-information’ brain has understood of it through a lesson I teach in Class 11th, through the mind-blastingly awesome flick ‘Source Code’ and through my discussions about it with a dear friend.

It is an amazing theory that implies parallel universes could exist simultaneously along with our own, having their own history, events and often a completely poles apart turn of reality as compared to the one that has materialised in the otherwise normal world, as we know it. The ever eternal debate between reality and what we deem as real!

What is reality? Something that we are experiencing as of now or is this, the big, fat dream that would burst someday like a bubble and we would wake up to a different scenario?

I’ll first share with you the gist of this chapter I teach to Class 11th students and that evokes the maximum number of yawns and protests from most of the slackers. So if you yawn in betweendon’t you dare open your mouth for anything besides a mesmerized gape, we’ll know where you stand!

It is the story of a History professor/writer/lecturer who one day wakes up to find himself in a train that is heading from Pune to Bombay. There are some Anglo-Indians on board and the train bears the symbol of the East India Company. Flabbergasted, he first presupposes that he has somehow travelled back in time, but it is not so. He is in the same time zone and era but in a world that is unfamiliar to him. Upon a little investigative stunt, he finds out that this is a different India, in contrast to the one as we know. Here we have not been ruled by the Britishers for a hundred years and are instead self reliant and extremely progressive. Whatever pocketful of English influence is there on the Bombay soil, it is in way of trading and entrepreneurship.

He goes to the central library to search for the turning point of the events and from where had history become different in this world to our own. Upon digging his self written history books, he finally converges it all to The Battle of Plassey where Vishwas Rao, the Maratha ruler missed the English bullet by a fraction of a hair, leading to the subsequent morale boost of his army and victory against the English in the 1800’s. The British influence thereafter was reduced and Indian Marathas ruled the nation for half a century before it became democratic.

While OUR History reveals that Vishwas Rao was killed by the British army that eventually led to an irreversible expansion of the English empire, whereby they ruled us for the next century! The professor absent-mindedly keeps the note of the information in his pocket, moves out and gets embroiled in an argument with an angry crowd, beaten up to the point of becoming subconscious and wakes up again to find himself on his bed in the world that he calls his own.

He is then explained to that since the last two days he was in coma, after a collision with a truck and the near death experience-which he realizes may have somehow made it possible for him to make that transition. However, the professor has evidence of that note in his pocket to prove to the detractors that they are wrong and what he was relating was not his insane imagination or wishful thinking.
The movie ‘Source Code’ also revolves around a similar web whereby one person travels through time and space to find himself in a body unknown to him, to save the world from a potential bomb threat and thereby able to create different realities by going back and forth in time for eight minutes on each round. Sounds complicated? Read the storyhere.
                         
Is that not an amazing leeway?
The assumption that varied realities exist in the universe where different histories I never thought I could use this term in plurals are being made based on a turn of events or diverse decisions that might have been taken. If I put my own life at this parameter it makes me dizzy to just imagine the possibilities.

Forgetting the global potential, it makes me wonder if there is another world, where I may be living a different life based on some road less travelled that I decided to sojourn on. There could be a world where I may not be married but running my own media channel, as was craved by me some fifteen years ago when I stepped out of the threshold of school. Selfish na, you think....But that was the first crossroad that I had stood on, debating and churning within till I finally gave in to family pressures. And many a times I am confounded by the 'what if?' that could have transpired there.

 

How amazing if we could peer into these different worlds as though into crystal balls and then pick and choose which alternative best suits our disposition and perhaps live there happily ever after. It is even more awesome than the supposition of visiting our future through some time machine because that cannot be altered while here we get options. And I have yet to find a human being who dislikes the idea of options for anything and everything!

“There is no one reality. Each of us lives in a separate universe. That's not speaking metaphorically. This is the hypothesis of the stark nature of reality suggested by recent developments in quantum physics. Reality in a dynamic universe is non-objective. Consciousness is the only reality.”-says M.R. Frank, from the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada.

I find myself wondering at the concept of multiple realities. How do parallel universes connect? What are the exact processes by which mind interacts with matter at the quantum level? Would we ever be able to travel through time, space and realities like this? And would a technically-duhme ever be able to comprehend fully, leave alone use this scientific break-through, if ever achieved in our history? The universe that we live in has such a fascinating nature and there is after all something more complex than the brain...or is it really the brain’s complexity again, after all?
