Every major pulp fiction hero, worth his salt, established or took forward an investment bank in the 60 years these book usually span. He went to Harvard, he has to go to Harvard, nothing less would do, and then he landed up in a chairman`s chair kept hot for him by his Dad (who by the way too went to Harvard nothing less does.)
"Lehman is dead, Bear and Merrill sold; and Goldman and Morgan have announced that they were retiring, as it were, telling the Fed that they were fundamentally restructuring themselves and asking —asking! — to be regulated as commercial banks.That wouldn't do, would it?"
If you want to sell an application on the iPhone, you must do so through Apple's online store and you must get Apple's permission. Google is launching something called Android Market, a free-for-all site where anyone can create an application and post it online for others to download.
In techie circles this contrast is known as "the cathedral and the bazaar," based on an essay by a hacker named Eric Raymond in 1997. Raymond was writing about ways to create software, but the concept applies to the market as well. He argued that the old, hierarchical, highly controlled approach where development is controlled by a priesthood of experts (the cathedral) would be outpaced by the freewheeling open-source approach where anyone could contribute (the bazaar).

In 2005,
Batman Begins
was released.
He asked the elder sister out for first day late night show.
In 2008,
The Dark Knight
was released.
He asked the younger sister for first day late night show.
“MY DEAR fellow,” said Sherlock Holmes as we sat on either side of the fire in his lodgings at Baker Street, “life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We would not dare to conceive the things which are really mere commonplaces of existence. If we could fly out of that window hand in hand, hover over this great city, gently remove the roofs, and peep in at the queer things which are going on, the strange coincidences, the plannings, the crosspurposes, the wonderful chains of events, working through generations, and leading to the most outre results, it would make all fiction with its conventionalities and foreseen conclusions most stale and unprofitable.”

I love the time when sessionals' come around.
- Their are no family errands to do. You can get away from doing chores because you have to "study".
- Their are no social gatherings, movies, trips, dinners, lunches and other forms of fultoo tp because everyone is busy studying.
- I get some time off from the multiple (ad)ventures which i have become part of.
- The multiple clubs which are becoming very difficult to juggle cease their activities.
My schedule for the weekend before sessionals has hardly varied since i started giving sessionals.
Saturday is spent re-re-re-revising the canon of Sherlock Holmes. My reading habits which once consisted of archer, grisham, banker, gutman, and every biography and current affairs book i could lay my hands on ( besides the daily newspaper reading) are now limited to saturday reading of sherlock holmes, every 40 days.
Sunday is spent re-re-re-revising seasons of HIMYM. My TV habits which once consisted of Heroes,Lost,Boston Legal, Monk, Ghost whisperers, 10 rules..., JAG, NCIS, Criminal Minds, and every current affairs show anchored by a female(esp. NDTV) are now limited to sunday watching of HIMYM, every 40 days.
Life is fun in college but it is busy too. Sessionals are just the time when you can pause and have fun. BTW, as a result of weekend described above, i rarely score in double digits in any of the sessionals'
