Why is everything that I try to do challenged. And I was not asking for a whole lot. I said to myself that going forward from today I shall attempt to blog regularly. And to that, I wanted to put in atleast a few lines. And here I come to the blogger site and before I can sit to write these few lines, I had to visit www.blogger.com 5 times, hit refresh 7 times and wonder if changing my browser security settings had anything to do with what I was going through.
So getting back to my resolution, I am here to auto-suggest that blogging is a good thing, it doesn't take a whole lot to pen down your musings regularly and that by commiting to regularity you are not making it a daily affair if thats not what you want it to be.
By the way, I was reminded today that the joy of things unexpected is unparalleled. I was driving back home during the lunch hour and out of nowhere came these 3 sneezes that seemed to liberate the most of me (starting with my nasal vents) beyond expression. Ah, what a feeling!
For now, ending this with a prayer...May God grant me the serenity, commitment, resoluteness, diligence, time & space, ... and above all, the joy of things unexpected, all this, just so that I can blog!

What is address bus? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary
What is address bus? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary: "A collection of wires connecting the CPU with main memory that is used to identify particular locations (addresses) in main memory. The width of the address bus (that is, the number of wires) determines how many unique memory locations can be addressed. Modern PCs and Macintoshes have as many as 36 address lines, which enables them theoretically to access 64 GB (gigabytes) of main memory. However, the actually amount of memory that can be accessed is usually much less than this theoretical limit due to chipset and motherboard limitations."

Earthquakes rearranging Earth's map
Finally, after a prolonged absence in the blog world, I have mustered the courage and the stuff to post something new.
In the backdrop of the recent Tsunami disaster, this article on CNN gives a very informative look at some of the forces of nature.
Talking about earthquakes similar to the high-richter Sumatran earthquake that caused the Tsunami, below is what the article puts forth:
In human time, earthquakes that powerful are rare, but in the vastness of geologic time, they are commonplace. "An earthquake of this magnitude, in this part of the world, has probably occurred about a million times since the breakup of Pangea," said Chris Scotese, a geophysicist at the University of Texas-Arlington. "No exaggeration."
