Niels Henrik Abel (1802-1829) was a brilliant Norwegian mathematician who accomplished an amazing amount of brilliant work in his short lifetime. Abel died of tuberculosis at the age of 26 after being forced to live in miserable conditions because of his inability to obtain a university post. The offer of a professorship in Berlin was not forthcoming for four years, by which time it was too late. The letter arrived two days after Abel's death, informing him that he had been offered professorship at the University of Berlin.

In GOD's own country
Visited Vimal Jyothi engineering College, Chemperi, near kannur, Kerala. This college, located in a remote and isolated village, in the midst of a thick forest of rubber trees, gives a paradise like feeling. I hope to be able to visit this place more often.
