After only one training session and a cancelled reserve match Dia - who was not even Liberian but French-Senegalese -was called to the bench for a Premier League game against Leeds United.When Matt Le Tissier picked up an injury after half an hour, Dia was brought on and his headless-chicken performance quickly showedthat someone had been pulling Soueys leg.Taken off after three quarters of an hour, Dia turned up for some physio the next morning, left, and never came back. It turned out he wasnot a Senegal international, had never played for Paris Saint-Germain and that Weah didnt have a clue who he was. A short spell back innon-league followed before he did the decent thing and went back to university.

It is often used in parallel computing to predict the theoretical maximum speedup using multiple processors. John L. Gustafson pointed out in 1988 what is now known as Gustafsons Law: people typically are not interested in solving a xed problem in the shortest possible period of time, as Amdahls Law describes, but rather in solving the largest possible problem (e.g. the most accurate possible approximation) in a xed "reasonable" amount of time. If the non-parallelizable portion of the problem is xed, or grows very slowly with problem size (e.g.O(log n)), then additional processors can increase the possible problem size without limit.Tuesday 16 August 2011 134.

"Why is the net wired randomly?", asked X "I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play," Sussman said. X then shut his eyes. "Why do you close your eyes?" Sussman asked his teacher. "So that the room will be empty." At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.Tuesday 16 August 2011 141. 2 Marvin Minsky-The AI guyTuesday 16 August 2011 142. 3 If India ever nds its way back to the freedom and democracy that were proud hallmarks of its rst eighteen years as an independent nation, someone will surely erect a monument to X.------- NY Times. Tthis issue was at the heart of the case of the Additional District Magistrate of Jabalpur v. Shiv Kant Shukla, popularly known as the Y case, which came up for hearing in front of the Supreme Court in December 1975. Given the important nature of the case, a bench comprising the ve seniormost judges was convened to hear the case. The others being future Chief Justices of India----JusticesA. N. Ray, P. N. Bhagwati, Y. V. Chandrachud, and M.H.Beg, stated in the majority decision During the arguments, X at one point asked the Attorney General Niren De: "Life is also mentioned in Article 21 and would Government argument extend to it also?". De answered, "Even if life was taken away illegally, courts are helpless". Justice Beg even went on to observe: "We understand that the care and concern bestowed by the state authorities upon the welfare of detenues who are well housed, well fed and well treated, is almost maternal." However, X resisted the pressure to concur with this majority view. He wrote in his dissenting opinion: The Constitution and the laws of India do not permit life and liberty to be at the mercy of the absolute power of the Executive . . . . What is at stake is the rule of law. The question is whether the law speaking through the authority of the court shall be absolutely silenced and rendered mute... detention without trial is an anathema to all those who love personal liberty.

Much like Flatlandwhich explores the idea of multiple dimensions. In this new world, Felix encounters famous scientists and mathematicians such Albert Einstein and Y , who all reside in a hotel that is basedon X. Felix stays there after Kathy leaves him; the hotel is full, but Felix has the desk clerk move everybody one room up, leaving an emptyroom for him. The paradox is not a paradox so to speak more of a method of counter-intuitive thinking a hypothetical hotel with countably innite manyrooms, all of which are occupied that is to say every room contains a guest. One might be tempted to think that the hotel would not be ableto accommodate any newly arriving guests, as would be the case with a nite number of rooms. Y especially has a lot to do with the funda behind X since he came up with the concepts of countably innite sets and one of Ys theoremsstates that the power set of a countably innite set is uncountably innite. Suppose that the Grand Hotel does not allow smoking, and no cigars may be taken into the Hotel. Despite this, the guest in room 1 goes to the guest in room 2 to get a cigar. The guest in room 2 goes to room 3 to get two cigars - one for himself and one for the guest in room 1. In general, the guest in room N goes to room (N+1) to get N cigars. They each return, smoke one cigar and give the rest to the guest from room (N-1). Thus despite the fact no cigars have been brought into the hotel, each guest can smoke a cigar inside the property. The fallacy of this story derives from the fact that there is no inductive point (base-case) from which the induction can derive. Although it is shown that if the guest from room N has (N+1) cigars then both he and all guests in lower-numbered rooms can smoke, it is never proved that any of the guests actually have cigars. The fact that the story mentions that cigars are not allowed into the hotel is designed to highlight the fallacy. However, unless it is shown that in the limit there is a guest with innitely many cigars, the proof is awed regardless of whether or not cigars are allowed in the hotel.

Part-II X is a phrasal template word game where one player prompts another for a list of words to substitute for blanks in a story, usually with funny results. The game is especially popular with American children and is frequently played as a party game or as a pastime. X was invented in 1953 by Leonard Stern and Roger Price, who published the rst X book themselves in 1958. It resembles the earlier games of Consequences and Exquisite Corpse. X books are still published by Price Stern Sloan, an imprint of Penguin Group, cofounded by Price and Stern. The origins of X are as follows :Tuesday 16 August 2011 216. The idea for X came from Ys work in a certain area with Colourless green ideas sleep furiously being one of the main examples A criticism of the above was given by Z.Tuesday 16 August 2011 217. Z (June 25, 1908 December 25, 2000) was an American philosopher and logician in the analytic tradition. From 1930 until his death 70 years later,Z was continuously afliated with Harvard University in one way or another, rst as a student, then as a professor of philosophy and a teacher of mathematics, and nally as a professor emeritus who published or revised several books in retirement. He lled the Edgar Pierce Chair of Philosophy at Harvard from 1956 to 1978. He won the rst Schock Prize in Logic and Philosophy in 1993, for "his systematical and penetrating discussions of how learning of language and communication are based on socially available evidence and of the consequences of this for theories on knowledge and linguistic meaning."Tuesday 16 August 2011 218. The name "Z1" was coined by A , in his popular science book B, in the honor of philosopher Z (19082000), who made an extensive study of indirect self- reference, and in particular for the following paradox-producing expression, known as "Yields falsehood when preceded by its quotation" yields falsehood when preceded by its quotation.Tuesday 16 August 2011 219.

All these theories and programs and philosophy nd their root/origin/ reason in the following : The D effect is named after the image on the tins and boxes of D cocoa powder, one of the main Dutch brands, which displayed a nurse carrying a serving tray with a cup of hot chocolate and a box with the same image.This image, introduced in 1904 and maintained for decades with slight variations, became a household notion. Reportedly, poet and columnist Nico Scheepmaker introduced wider usage of the term in the late 1970s. Another famous use of this is E dened by E1 that, when graphed in two dimensions, can visually reproduce the formula itself(seen above). It is used in various maths and computer science courses as an exercise in graphing formulae.Tuesday 16 August 2011 221. F is the name of the annual conference on computer graphics. The rst F conference was in 1974. The conference is attended by tens of thousands of computer professionals. Past F conferences have been held in Los Angeles, Dallas, New Orleans, Boston and elsewhere across the United States. G is organized into over 170 local chapters and 35 Special Interest Groups (SIGs), through which it conducts most of its activities. Additionally, there are over 500 college and university chapters. The rst student chapter was founded in 1961 at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. Many of the SIGs like F, sponsor regular conferences which have become famous as the dominant venue for presenting new innovations in certain elds. The groups also publish a large number of specialized journals, magazines, and newsletters.
