Daniel Tammet got the record to memorize pi to 22,514 digits in over 5 hours.He also speaks a variety of languages including English, French, Finnish, German, Spanish, Lithuanian, Romanian, Estonian, Icelandic, Welsh and Esperanto. Tammet is capable of understanding new languages really rapidly. I am very interested for individuals with an incredible mind. He was born with congenital childhood epilepsy. To prove this for the Channel Five documentary, Tammet was challenged to learn Icelandic in one week. Daniel Paul Tammet is gifted with mathematical calculations, sequence memory, and natural language learning. Seven days later he appeared on Icelandic television conversing in Icelandic, with his Icelandic language instructor saying it was "not human." He experience synesthesia forming numbers of colors or sensation, specifically Daniel's imagery of these numbers is specific. Tammet not only verbally describes these visions, but also creates artwork, specially watercolor paintings, such as his painting of Pi.

In his mind, he says, each quantity up to 10,000 has its own distinctive shape and feel, that he can "see" results of calculations as landscapes, and that he can "sense" whether a amount is prime or composite.

Learning Embedded Systems - by Asang Dani

It’s a common misconception that only those with electronics background can learn embedded systems. Although sutdents with electronics background do have some advantages - learning embedded systems meaningfully requires good knowledge of electronics, computer architecture, operating systems and sound programming skills. Naturally no one is born with these skills and most colleges in India today don’t impart such skills as a part of single course. Like most other things in computing one can aquire this knowledge if he/she is willing to work hard for it.

Many filipinos and many more of our people see the injustices, the poverty, the underdevelopment, the lack of peace, the pollution, the damage to the environment that are all facts of daily life. They are moved to respond to such realities.

Many people in our country are victims of violence, injustice, exploitation and oppression. They find themselves helpless for they simply do not know where to go or what to do.

In war-torn Mindanao, Peace is the dream, the quest and the solution to many problems.

The environmental damage is pervasive. Pollution increases. Land, seas and rivers so necessary for life are becoming hazards. The reality of destructive logging programs, un-ecological agricultural practices, unhealthy mining and coastal mismanagement all cry out for our attention

Through the years, there have been many difficulties, frustrations, and pains but we must not be sober and reluctant and have transcended them as opportunities for growth and possibilities

The rootedness of a filipino values, work, and lifestyle in spirituality and charism require a common effort. Secularism, consumerism, and economic globalization challenge our spirituality and calls for solidarity with the poor of the world.
