My Biased Eyes: Staind-Zoe Jane
http://my-biased-eyes.blogspot.com/2008/03/staind-zoe-jane.html
Interesting/Inspiring stuff I see around. Monday, March 31, 2008. One of my recent favorites - Staind-Zoe Jane. Good guitar music and very beautiful lyrics. The thing I liked most about this song is that it is dedicated by a father to his daughter. I could not recollect any more songs of this type. [Comments Welcome :)]. Here are the lyrics :. Well i want you to notice. To notice when i'm not around. And i know that your eyes see straight through me. And speak to me without a sound. I want to hold you.

Of a convex polygon. The maximum area of a triangle that has. As a side and is contained in. Is at least twice the area of. With a...

My Biased Eyes: January 2008
http://my-biased-eyes.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Interesting/Inspiring stuff I see around. Sunday, January 27, 2008. I have read a lot of literature on the working of brain, artificial intelligence, hierarchy of intelligence levels in mammals with humans at the top etc.etc. But never got motivated to write down my views on intelligence. OK so the reason I am doing it now is because this is my homework assignment for the "Autonomous Agents" course. Thought it will be a good idea to share with others and get their opinion on this. About the Human Brain.
