Berson's Corollary of Inverse Distances
The farther away from the entrance that you have to park, the closer the space vacated by the car that pulls away as you walk up to the door.
Feeling much better now, but am still trying hard to get over it.
I suppose its just a lesson that life poses to us once in a while; to experience the "harsh realities" of life.
Am trying to do what we call as proffing, whereby we email professors in the Universities to which we are applying, convincing them to make us part of his/her research team. For doing that, we go to the professors' web sites on the departments to find out about their research interests, the projects they are doing, whether they are looking for students, whether they have funds (this is an important part)... you get the idea. This is an important part of an application because they are the ones who decide whether the given candidate gets a research assistantship; which provides for valuable aid during the graduate education. This process usually drags on for a couple of months, till we hit jackpot. Hope it goes fine.

Winamp last week. IT REALLY KICKS THE LLAMA'S ASS - as they say it. It has so
many desirable features, and it really rocks. Here are some of the salient features that I liked.
- It is much faster than Winamp 3 - which BTW was really sluggish, much slicker than Winamp 2. Infact, they skipped Winamp 4 because Winamp 2 + Winamp 3 = Winamp 5.
- It offers 3 versions, a Lite one (650kb), the Default Winamp 5.01 (4.1 MB) and the Winamp 5 Pro (which is 15$).
- It really looks wonderful, with its default skin created by none other than the man behind the MMD3 Skin for Winamp3
- You can use all the classic and modern skins on it; without any problem - those swearing by MMD3 can use it here; those still holding on to the classic Winamp 2 skins can switch over to Winamp 5 without any problems.
- The preferences dialog box of Winamp 5 has attained the classic look of Winamp 2. In Winamp 3, the preferences box was very bad - You could not access the plugins windows at all. Now with its classic look, you would have no problem at all
- The plugins developed for both Winamp 2 and Winamp 3 work fine with Winamp 5
- It supports CD ripping - albeit at low speeds (U need to upgrade to Pro by paying a little fee to get much higher speeds)

Why Dont you check it out.
If You are still not satisfied, all I can say is that you dont listen to music the way it should be heard.
