Teaching my nephew math now, I am delighted at the amount of detailed help available online. On looking back, I am sure I would have performed much better, atleast in mathematics if these things were available those days :|
 
Yup. You can actually see visual representation of formulas and other things online today. You can see videos that explain physic theorems and so on. We had nothing like that back then. Plus there are online tutorials from projects like Khan Academy and others which can come super handy to understand logics that you might not in class.
 
No threads are locked for me. Bwahahahahhahahahahaha. Also, I was catching up with the videos from the times I was out of town (Mukteshwar, Nainital and Ranikhet). That's why the spamming during the last couple of days. Should be fine from tomorrow unless of course I end up going out of town again.
 
Three-year-old Mateo wanted cupcakes for dinner, and he wasn’t taking no for an answer.
In an adorable viral video, the tot pulls out all the stops as he makes his case — he doesn’t need to eat dinner because he already ate lunch. Therefore, he should be able to have the hidden cupcakes he found at his grandma’s house.
Mateo asked his mom, who said he couldn’t have the sweets until after he ate dinner. He then turned his attention to Gramma.
But Linda Beltran caught him trying to go behind her back and scolded him. Mateo tried to plead his case and Beltran recorded her son’s spunky response. The result was a hilarious video that has been viewed almost 370,000 times since Feb. 19.
The video may be a hit because of Mateo’s use of his mom’s first name in the indecipherable but impassioned argument.
“Linda, honey, honey, look at this,” he says at one point.
Beltran told the UberConference blog that she and her husband taught their children their first names after they found a lost boy at a theme park who couldn’t name his parents.
“For the most part we are still Mommy and Daddy, but when he is serious and wants to make sure we are paying attention, we quickly become Linda and Kenneth,” she said.
Mateo isn’t disrespectful, Beltran said, but he isn’t one to turn down the chance to engage in a healthy debate.
“I’ve always said Mateo is an old soul. The kid definitely keeps us on our toes and this video depicts him, well, accurately,” she said.

Later Ellen invited the kid and his mom on her show and they had a big surprise at the end.

Found out today that Mika takes Rs. 50 lakhs to perform at a wedding event. That's more than Rs. 25 lakhs per hour! :D
 
Seriously?!! How much film shooting take? Say for example, how much Salman Khan takes per film?
Assuming 75 crore and Salman spends like 30 days on sets = 240 hrs?
Converts to little more than 30 lakhs/hr.
Mika doing VERY VERY well in that case! (No acting, no action, no romance, just singing!)
