Two friends were walking through the desert. During some point of the journey, they had an argument and one of them slapped the other one in the face. The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand: ‘Today my Best Friend slapped me in the face’. They kept on walking until they found an oasis where they decided to take a bath. The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning but his friend saved him. After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone: ‘Today My Best Friend saved my life’. The friend who had slapped and then saved his best friend asked him, ‘After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now, you write on a stone, why?’ The friend replied ‘When someone hurts us, we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. But when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it’. Learn to write your hurts in the sand and t...

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls . He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar . He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls . He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was. The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar . Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous "yes." The professor then poured a cup of coffee into the jar , effectively filling the empty space between the sand . The students laughed. "Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar...

When things go wrong as they sometimes will, when the road you're trudging seems as an uphill: When the funds are low and the debts are high: And you want to smile, but you have to sign; When care is pressing you down a bit . . . Rest if you must, but don't you quit. Success is failure turned inside out, the silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems a far, So stick to the fight when you're the hardest hit . . . It's when things go wrong, that you must not quit.

In one seat a wispy old man sat holding a bunch of fresh flowers. Across the aisle was a young girl whose eyes came back again and again to the man’s flowers. The time came for the old man to get off. Impulsively he thrust the flowers into the girl’s lap. “I can see you love the flowers,” he explained, “and I think my wife would like for you to have for you to have them. I’ll tell her I gave them to you.” The girl accepted the flowers, then watched the old man get off the bus and walk through the gate of a small cemetery.

One night a man dreamed, that he was walking along the beach with the Lord, across the sky flashed scenes from his life, for each scene, he noticed two set of footprints, one belonging to him and the other to the Lord . . . When the last scene of his life flashed b4 him, he looked back at the footprints, he noticed, that many times along the path of life there was only one set of footprints, he also noticed that it happened at that very lowest and saddest times of his life . . . This bothered him and, and he quetioned the Lord abt it: " Lord, u said, that once i decided to follow you , u'd walk with me all the way, but i've noticed, that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints, I don't understand why, when i needed you most, you would leave me." The Lord replied : " My son, I love you and i would never leave you, during your times of trial, when you have seen only one set of footprints, it was then when i carried you...

A university professor challenged his students with this question. "Did God create everything that exists? A student bravely replied, "Yes, He did!" "God created everything?" the professor asked. "Yes, sir," the student replied. The professor answered, "If God created everything, then God created evil, since evil exists. And according to the principal that our works Define who we are, then God is evil." The student became quiet before such an answer. The professor was quite pleased with himself, and boasted to the students that he had proven once more that the faith in God is a myth. Another student raised his hand and said, "Can I ask you a question,professor?" "Of course," replied the professor. The student stood up and asked,"Professor, does cold exist?" "What kind of question is this? Of course it exists. Have you never been cold?" The students snickered at the young man's question. The ...

INTRODUCTION Part-of-speech tagging (POS tagging or POST), also called grammatical tagging, morphosyntactic categorization or syntactic wordclass tagging. It is the process of marking up the words in a text as corresponding to a particular part of speech, based on both its definition, as well as its context—i.e., relationship with adjacent and related words in a phrase, sentence, or paragraph. A POS analysis is the very basic grammatical task of assigning every word in a sentence or text to the correct morphosyntactic category – noun, verb, adjective, adverb, and so on. In POS tagging, labels or tags are added to every word in a text to indicate their category. While it is possible to assign these tags manually, it is highly desirable to automate the process, as otherwise the process of applying a POS analysis to a large corpus becomes prohibitively work intensive. Some of the POS tagger available are : ● Stanford POS tagger ● TreeTagger ● TnT - A Statistical Part-of-Speech Tag...

I took this video this evening in Potters Square, Bhaktapur, Nepal. Potter's Square. A two-minute walk south of Durbar Square brings you to Bolachhen, also known as Potter's Square because of the many potters seen here moulding wet clay into different kinds of earthen ware. It has a display of fresh pottery left out to dry in the open square. (more)

A Birth Certificate shows that we were born. A death certificate shows that we died. Pictures show that we lived! Have a seat.....Relax.... Abd read this slowly. I Believe... That just because two people argue, doesn't mean they don't love each other. And just because they don't argue, doesn't mean they do love each other. I Believe...That we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change. I Believe...That no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that. I Believe...That true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love. I Believe... That you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life. I Believe...That it's taking me a long time to become the person I want to be. I Believe...That you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them. I Believe... Tha...
