Emptiness!!(Lonely) Rohan Rathore IIT Guwahati LYRICS

BY UMIII UMESH

Oh love of mine, with a song and a whine,
You're harsh and divine like truths and a lie.
But the tale ends not here
I have nothing to fear
for my love is a yell of forgiving and hold on.

In the bright emptiness, in a room full of it,
is a cruel mistress - my heart!
I feel this unrest, that nests all hollowness,
for I have nowhere to go and I'm cold.

And I feel so lonely yeah...
There's a better place than this: emptiness.
And I'm so lonely yeah... 
There's a better place than this: emptiness yeah...

Aa.. aa.. aa...

Tune mere jaana.., kabhi nahin jaana..,
Ishq mera, dard mera.. haaye..
Tune mere jaana, kabhi nahin jaana,
Ishq mera, dard mera

Aashiq tera... 
Bheed mein khoya rehta hai...
Jaane jahaan.... 
Poocho toh itna kehta hai - 

That I feel so lonely yeah...
There's a better place than this: emptiness...
And I'm so lonely yeah...
There's a better place than this: emptiness yeah... ya..

Aa.. aa.. aa...

/*English Translation of the Hindi Section of the Song*/

Tune mere jaana, kabhi nahin jaana, (You, my love, have never ever realized)
Ishq mera, dard mera (my love, my pain) 
Tune mere jaana, kabhi nahin jaana, (You, my love, have never ever realized)
Ishq mera, dard mera (my love, my pain)

Aashiq tera... (Your lover)
Bheed mein khoya rehta hai... (remains lost in the crowd)
Jaane jahaan....  (My dear love, wherever ...)
Poocho toh itna kehta hai - (... asked, he just says ...)

That I feel so lonely yeah...
There's a better place than this: emptiness.
And I'm so lonely yeah... 
There's a better place than this: emptiness yeah...

More about the song and the lyrics:

The track starts with an amazing combination of synthesizer and guitar. The work of the lyricist and singer of this song is simply "awesome". Pain just oozes out through the "alaap" in the reprise.

At last, I would just say that I loved this song, and hope all of you do like this song, I feel sad for the loss of such a promising talent of India, but more than that I feel proud of this guy. Hope the girl realizes the love of Rohan for her, maybe that was what he wished for ........



[NOTE] The authenticity of the story is not confirmed. It is based on what is spread over the internet through various blogs . Other people who claims this song haven't been able tocome up with a proof, until then we have decided to stick to this story. 






As per information on some blogs I got to know that the original composer of this song is Gajender Verma, and due to this very reason he is now claiming legal copyrights to this song. Some of the Emptiness videos on YouTube have been removed due this very reason. Aseem Ahmed Abbasee and Moonami Roy have written this song.  So the whole story about Rohan Rathore has been cooked up for publicity of the track.
[NOTE] Folks I got to know of it from some blogs and social networking sites.





Now here is the true story behind Rohan Rathore




Some of the people( who wanted to earn by charging people for downloading this song) knew the song was good. But an underground track does not reach a wide audience easily.So they needed some means to publicize this song. Then they thought of attaching a story to it. And they munched up a story that had all the elements that typical Bollywood type movie has. It had all the elements COLLEGE, LOVE and then CANCER. It is more or less Karan Johar type masala movie material. Those people very well knew that they should target the younger generation. So they made up a story to target these people. And India these sort of eye-catcher romantic story spreads virally. And finally those morons who wanted to get share out of profits of this cheap and shameful publicity stunt had with them real good marketing strategy. And also the promotion using social networking sites helped them in their viral marketing campaign. So in short the melodrama around so called IIT-G student "Rohan Rathore" is just a cheap marketing strategy.
I can only suggest that youths nowadays should reason the authenticity of such story like "Rohan Rathore" before believing them as most of the times they are the means adopted by some idiots in-order to reap profits.







BUT STILL IN MY HONEST OPINION I WOULD REQUEST EVERYONE TO KEEP ASIDE THE CONTROVERSY BEHIND THIS SONG, AND JUST ENJOY THE TRACK.

Careers in Electrical Engineering Part 1: What do they do and how to become one.

What Does an Electrical Engineer Do?

        Ever thought about being an electrical engineer?  Ever wonder just what you would be doing as an electrical engineer?  An electrical engineer today has an enormous selection of career paths to choose from.  Here are but a few examples:
       Large scale projects
o     Power generation, transmission and distribution – Design equipment like generators, transformers, high power switches and protection devices that connect to the power grid.  This includes the green energy sources like solar, wind, geothermal and tidal.
o     Facility/Building power system design – Work with architects and contractors to design the power, lighting and communication distribution systems and networks in buildings.  You may even have the opportunity to incorporate green energy generation systems in the design.
        Medium scale projects
o     Commercial products and appliances – Electronics are found in everything from your blender to your toothbrush, from cell phones to video games.  Working in this field will challenge you to be very efficient in your designs from a power, cost and size standpoint.  And don’t forget the batteries!
o     Scientific instrumentation – Work in this area can take you around the world and beyond.  In many cases you will be pushing the envelope of the technology to provide that next bit of information needed to study a particular problem or phenomenon.  Your designs will need to be very precise and accurate as well as meet size, power and most likely cost constraints.
o     Aviation and Aerospace – From large-scale power and communication systems to very small, precise circuits for control and monitoring the growing complexity of the aviation/aerospace industry.
o     Military – Large-scale to micro-scale applications with very rigorous environmental and durability constraints. 
        Small scale projects
o     Semiconductor design – You will be designing the components that other electrical engineers will use to design all of the above.  You will be pushing the technology to the limits to create faster processors, larger memories, lower power devices and higher levels of integration to make everything we use smaller, lighter and with more features.
o     Nanotechnology – Take it a level smaller and design new components that will work in all areas of industry.  From self assembling circuits to nano-machines that will help cure diseases to paper thin solar cells and clothing that won’t get dirty.  The opportunities are endless!
          This just scratches the surface of opportunities awaiting an electrical engineer. 

How to Become an Electrical Engineer

But, how do you get there?  First, you must have a curiosity of how and why things work.  That curiosity will drive you through the many courses you will need to take to achieve your goal; each one giving you more clues and insights as to how the world works around us.  And then…
         You will need math in all of its flavors: algebra, trigonometry, geometry, differential equations and calculus—but don’t let that scare you.  Math is a subject anyone can master; it just depends on how much effort you want to put into learning it.  The more you practice it, the better you will be at it, just like riding a bike or playing the guitar.  That great background in math is going to help you with…
         The chemistry and physics you will take.  These two courses will give you insights into how the universe works and will open up your opportunities for a variety of careers.  Do not underestimate how important these will be, especially if you have any interest in working as an engineer in the scientific community.  To design a circuit to do a specific task is fine but to understand why and how this task is to be done will allow you to collaborate with the scientists and to design a circuit that meets or exceeds their needs. 
         One other key requirement is software.  Everything today has a microcontroller inside (remember that toothbrush?) and it needs software to run properly.  As an electrical engineer you will be designing hardware (integrated circuits, resistors, op-amps, capacitors, etc.) and if you can write the software, create the programs to make that hardware function, you are twice as valuable!
         When you are in college don’t limit yourself to the hardcore courses.  Allow yourself to explore other areas of interest.  Do you like geology?  Take a course.  How about biology?  Take Bio101 and expand your scientific background; you never know when that bit of knowledge will lead you to a wonderful new career path.  That’s what’s great about electrical engineering; everything uses electronics, so you may be able to combine your love for electronics with a passion for some other science or technology.  Also, don’t shun literature and the arts.  You will need to write and present reports and papers.  Hone your writing skills while in college.  It is very disturbing to read a report by a qualified engineer that is fraught with grammatical and spelling mistakes—it takes away from the engineer’s professionalism and brings into question his/her ability to represent your company.  The more well rounded you are the easier it will be for you to take advantage of opportunities as they arise.  Also, you will be meeting lots of different people all around the world, so the more variety you have in your background the easier it will be to interact professionally as well as socially with your new associates.
         So, in a nutshell:  If you’re in high school, take as much science and math as you can.  Seize any opportunity to work along with a professional, even if it’s to visit his/her place of work for a day.  Once you’re off to college keep up with the math and science and broaden your background as much as you can—it will pay for itself time and again once you’re in the real world.  Last but not least—have fun!  The adventure of getting to become an engineer is only a fraction of the fun you’re going to have once you’re doing it as a profession.
         I hope I’ve given you an idea of what electrical engineering can be about and how to get on the right path.  In part two I will try to give you a quick look into what one would do on a typical design project.

Students suspended, expelled over Facebook posts

Summary

Three students in the seventh grade have found themselves either suspended or expelled after posting inappropriate comments about their teacher on Facebook.
Two students have been suspended, and one student has been expelled, over negative Facebook postings they made about a teacher. The individuals are in seventh grade at Chapel Hill Middle School, meaning they are either 12 or 13 years old, according to My Fox Atlanta. The children are accused of violating a portion of the school code that is a “level one” offense, the worst possible: “Falsifying, misrepresenting, omitting, or erroneously reporting” allegations of inappropriate behavior by a school employee toward a student, according to AJC.
Alejandra Sosa, an honor roll student, said she regretted posting a Facebook status calling her teacher a pedophile. She has been suspended for 10 days. “I was just expressing myself on Facebook, because like I said I was mad that day because of what he [did],” Sosa said in a statement. “So, I mean I had no intentions of ruining his reputation.”
Sosa is currently drafting an apology to her teacher. At the same time though, she said her school principal, Jolene Morris, violated her privacy by ordering her to log into her Facebook account at a school library computer. Morris then reportedly read the offending post and ensuing responses from friends before ordering Sosa to delete the posts. As many as 15 children made two dozen posts about the teacher in the Facebook conversation, but their penalties were not as severe (for example, a one-day suspension from school).
William Lambert, also an honor roll student, had the same feelings as Sosa after he was reprimanded for calling the same teacher a rapist. He has also been suspended. “I shouldn’t have done it,” Lambert said in a statement. “Because I could have still been at school, like right now, if I never had commented on the post.”
Taylor Tindle was expelled for posting that the same teacher is bipolar. The student’s mother asked not to be identified but said she believed the school’s punishment did not fit the crime and pointed out that her child did not even get a chance to apologize before getting kicked out.
At least two of the students’ families plan to hire attorneys. Douglas County School officials said the three students violated the disciplinary code but that they could not comment because the parents plan to fight the disciplinary charges in a school tribunal on March 10, 2011. The students could face even harsher penalties, including expulsion and banishment to a school for children with behavior problems.
The case will be very important in deciding what falls under free speech and what the school can discipline students for. We’ll definitely be hearing more about this one as Facebook and other social networks continue to grow in popularity.
While I do agree that what these students said was wrong, I don’t believe they should be punished for what they did. They need to be disciplined, sure, but the school should not have a right to get involved. This is a very fine line we’re talking about.
