Leonard Hofstadter: What are you doing?
Sheldon Cooper: Trying to get the hair out of my eyes.
Leonard Hofstadter: Sheldon, you are one day late for your haircut.
Sheldon Cooper: Thank you for captioning my nightmare.

Penny: You know, Sheldon, I used to cut my brother's hair. I could do it for you.
Sheldon Cooper: Penny, I know you mean well, offering the skills of the hill-folk. But here in town we don't churn our own butter, we don't make dresses out of gunny sacks, and sure-as-shootin' don't get our hair cut by bottle blonde...
Leonard Hofstadter: [interrupting] Sheldon, be nice!
Sheldon Cooper: I'm sorry. It's the bad boy attitude that comes with this hair.

Amy Farrah Fowler: Sheldon, you're ruining girlfriend-boyfriend sing-along night.
Sheldon Cooper: I'm sorry, I'm looking for a barber, and I'm running out of time. My hair is growing at the rate of four point six yoctometers per femtosecond. And if you're quiet, you can hear it.
Amy Farrah Fowler: What about Supercuts?
Sheldon Cooper: I tried once. They do men's and women's hair in the same room at the same time. It's like Sodom and Gomorrah with mousse.

Penny: Why did you get bongos?
Sheldon Cooper: Richard Feynman played the bongos. I thought I'd give that a try.
Leonard Hofstadter: Richard Feynman was a famous physicist.
Penny: Leonard, it's three o'clock in the morning! I don't care if Richard Feynman was a purple leprechaun who lived in my butt!
Penny: Where are you going?
Sheldon Cooper: Wherever the music takes me, kitten.















Between the Mosque and the Temple- Boman Desai------ SUMMARY.

Boman Desai's Between the Mosque and the Temple

Introduction

Boman Desai is a famous Indian writer. He has written many novels and stories. The story Between the Mosque and the Temple is about a problem between Hindusand Muslims about placing a dustbin.

Banu’s Morning

The story opens with Banu waking up in the morning. Banu is the chairman of Sanitation Committee. She finds Pemmy, the servant, cleaning the house. Banu gets up and she dresses herself in plain clothes. She wears a plain shoe. She does not wear any jewel. She offers a special prayer because she is going to attend to a problem between the Hindus and Muslims.

The parade

Banu comes out of her house and meets two members of the committee. She decides to walk with them than using the car. She says that the spot is not far away. She feels happy at the two members because they would support her. On the way, Banu meets a few students. The students call her as Banubai. They ask where is going. She remembers the salt march of Gandhi. She calls the students to go along with her. The students are a mixture of Muslims and Hindus. On the way, the students asked others to join them in their walk. When Banu reaches the spot there is a big crows behind her.

The solution

There is a leader for Hindu and Muslim along with their followers. The Hindu leader is surprised to see Banu, because she is a woman. He does not know what to do. Banu says that she would walk from the mosque to the temple and they should count her steps. The dustbin would be placed exactly at the centre place. She walks and the Hindu leader counts the steps aloud. The students join the count. There are 232 steps between the mosque and the temple. Banu orders to place the dustbin at the 116th step. The Hindu leader feels happy. The Muslim leader nods his head.

Conclusion

Banu thinks that the solution is simple but it worked out because of three reasons:

The crowd behind her.
She is not a Muslim or Hindu.
She is a woman.

What is SCIENCE?

Science Definition


The word science comes from the Latin "scientia," meaning knowledge.
How do we define science? According to Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary, the definition of science is "knowledge attained through study or practice," or "knowledge covering general truths of the operation of general laws, esp. as obtained and tested through scientific method [and] concerned with the physical world."
What does that really mean? Science refers to a system of acquiring knowledge. This system uses observation and experimentation to describe and explain natural phenomena. The term science also refers to the organized body of knowledge people have gained using that system. Less formally, the word science often describes any systematic field of study or the knowledge gained from it.
What is the purpose of science? Perhaps the most general description is that the purpose of science is to produce useful models of reality.
Most scientific investigations use some form of the scientific method. You can find out more about the scientific method here.
Science as defined above is sometimes called pure science to differentiate it from applied science, which is the application of research to human needs. Fields of science are commonly classified along two major lines:
   - Natural sciences, the study of the natural world, and
   - Social sciences, the systematic study of human behavior and society.
