கவியரசு கண்ணதாசன்: ஆசையே அலைபோலே

ஆசையே அலைபோலே நாமெலாம் அதன்மேலே ஓடம்போலே ஆடிடுவோமே வாழ்நாளிலே! (ஆசை) பருவம் என்னும் காற்றிலே பறக்கும் காதல் தேரிலே ஆணும் பெண்ணும் மகிழ்வார் சுகம் பெறுவார் அதிசயம் காண்பார்! நாளை உலகின் பாதையை இன்றே யார் காணுவார்? (ஆசை) வாழ்க்கை எல்லாம் தீர்ந்ததே வடிவம் மட்டும் வாழ்வதேன் இளமை மீண்டும் வருமா மணம் பெறுமா முதுமையே சுகமா! காலம் போகும் பாதையை இங்கே யார் காணுவார்? (ஆசை) சூறைக்காற்று மோதினால் தோணி ஓட்டம் மேவுமோ வாழ்வில் துன்பம் வரவு சுகம் செலவு இருப்பது கனவு! காலம் வகுத்த கணக்கை இங்கே யார் காணுவார்? (ஆசை) Kovil Pillai P.

HashMaps inside the interface

Have you ever needed to have HashMap as constant values in the interface, but couldn't do because you do not know how to do it. Here are the two ways I got. First: Define class that returns unmodifiable map. class ConstMaps { static Map maps = new HashMap(); static { maps.put("mobile", getMobileMap()); maps.put("car", getCarMap()); } private static Map getMobileMap() { Map hm = new HashMap(); hm.put("NOKIA", "Nokia 6121 Classic"); hm.put("SONY", "Sony Ericsson TM506"); hm.put("MOTOROLA", "Motorola Aura"); hm.put("IPHONE", "Apple iPhone 3G"); return hm; } private static Map getCarMap() { Map hm = new HashMap(); hm.put("FORD", "Ford Capri"); hm.put("VOLKSWAGEN", "VW Scirocco"); hm.put("TOYOTA", "Toyota SpaceCruiser"); hm.put(&quo

Catch M21

M21 runs in Tambaram - Vijayanagar route. It stops at Vijayanagar bus terminus. It stops there for about 5 minutes for the conductor to sign in his office. Then the bus goes to the other side to go to Tambaram. It stops there for another 5 - 10 minutes - break time for the driver and the conductor before they start. So there is about 20 minutes time for a passenger to get into the bus. People get into the bus at different places and time. Here are few… Directly go the terminus, regardless of whether there is M21 or not, and get the bus. + Fairly comfortable travel + Good time for mobile conversation - Extra waiting time - Have to miss the other buses even if they are not crowded Wait at the other side and go the terminus iff M21 arrives. + Works well on the worst case, i.e., no M21 for a long time + Even though late, possibilities for getting the seat is nearly 100% - Might be oblivion of the traffic and run to catch the bus - Tend to be double minded

Yahoo!Cricket

Better than CricInfo? I am watching live score update on Ind Vs WI match ( 20-20 at Lord's, London, ENG, 12 Jun 2009) here (http://cricket.yahoo.com/cricket/livematch?mid=3211#tab2). Really wonderful. They have video for wickets. I think I don't have to watch TV for watching matches ;-) More videos @ http://cricket.yahoo.com/cricket/videos/home Kovil Pillai P.

Why should old people struggle?

No matter how much you train yourself, there are things, when it really happens, makes what you pretend to be to vanish and the true nature of your to come out. Generally, it destroys your happiness. For me, one such thing is seeing old people and beggars who awkwardly handicapped struggling. I really don't want to bother about these people. I just want to move on as if I had not seen them or it is just another ordinary person in this world. I want my heart to be still. But it never happens. It hurts. Even if it is for a second, its target is at the softest and deepest. I used to provide food and offer coins. I thought I would make a difference at least for a day. I thought it would add if God exists and if He counts it. But then that was long time back. I am no longer interested in doing these. No real reason to share - I am one of those who accept their thoughts without much questioning. In fact, the moment I see these people, the first question I ask myself is 'why these peo
