Thoughts for the weekend....

Didnt have any serious topics for blogging.Thought i will share some information i gathered during the day...

--> We have a one semester course in "Principles of management and behavourial sciences".Some feel it is not necessary for engineers.But the course is good, you can get to know a lot about management and various other topics,which we busy engineers are not usually aware of.Anyway the faculty was not available today and the substitute faculty shared a few big authors name and about their books with us.Am sure many of you out there know these bigwigs but am hearing about thier work for the first time.I have made it a point to read them when time permits. The following are those books:
1) Thomas Friedman - Why the world is flat??
http://www.thomaslfriedman.com/worldisflat.htm
2) Who says elephants can't dance?? by Louis.V.Gerstner http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0060523794/104-2351553-7159938?v=glance&n=283155

--> Some time for english vocabulary
Fair-weather friend - A person who is dependable in good times but is not in times of trouble.Think some of us can identify with such friends.




--> The audio of Jillunu oru kadhal been released.For those of you who want to catch up during the weekend,spend some time to hear these songs.Am eagerly waiting for this film...especially the chemistry between Jyothika and Surya is going to be amazing.

Ok ppl...thats all for the weekend.Will try to get some other topic to blog during the weekend.

Take care and happy weekend..
