REMEMBERING THE NUCLEAR MARTYRS: HIROSHIMA & NAGASAKI ATTACKS


I dedicate this post to all those who, even though were innocent, still suffer the greatest curse of all times- The victims of the Hiroshima & Nagasaki nuclear attacks. It has been more than 6 long decades now when mankind confronted its darkest day following the rage of revenge over the Pearl Harbor attack in the USA- The Hiroshima & Nagasaki nuclear attacks. Japan faces the curse even today and the suit will continue in future as well.

TECHNICAL ASPECT:

It was on 6th August, 1945 that the "Little Boy" wrecked havoc in the city of Hiroshima. It was a nuclear bomb weighing 600 kg and could result in a destruction approximately equal to the explosion 17-19 kilotons of TNT. It gained this immense power from the nuclear fission reaction of U235- an isotope of Uranium.

FIREFOX CROSSES ONE BILLION DOWNLOADS : FACT OR FICTION


I was just going through some Technology news content on Yahoo! and what did I find- Firefox crosses 1 Billion downloads (article indexed from PCWorld). I just wondered how this could ever happen, because it was not more than around a week ago that I posted on Firefox crosses 50 Million downloads mark. It made no sense that the people around the world are now downloading Firefox at a rate greater than a rate at which they were downloading it the were downloading it at the time of its launch. So I tried to figure out the point in it.
