The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I got hold of another Leonardo Da vinci great book while surfing the web.
The self-help book that Leonardo never wrote, it offers a revolutionary approach to learning and creativity.
Drawing on Leonardo's notebooks, inventions and legendary works of art, this book introduces seven principles for thinking like history's greatest genius.
From the notebook's celebration of an insatiably curious approach to life (curiosita') to the willingness to embrace uncertainty and paradox (sfumato) embodied in Mona Lisa's smile, these principles will seem at once intuitively familiar and surprisingly powerful.
Offering an abundance of interactive, entertaining exercises to help you master each principle, you'll learn how to apply then at work, home, and everywhere else!
"How to Think Like Leonardo da Vinci" has been translated into 24 languages and has sold more than 500,000 copies worldwide.
It has appeared on the best-seller lists of the Washington Post and NY Times and was #1 on Amazon.com when first released in September of 1998.
It was also featured in the movie "The Italian Job"!

And I got even another one I am turning out lucky today to get all these treasures.The notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci equal the importance of his paintings and are perhaps the greatest literary legacy any artist has bequeathed to the world. He wrote about his sketches, inventions, architecture, elements of mechanics, painting ideas, human anatomy, grocery lists and even people that owed him money. Leonardo kept notebooks throughout his life, in which he wrote daily, often in a private

Math and the Mona Lisa The Art and Science of Leonardo da Vinci/by Atalay B (Author)
Math and the Mona Lisa sees the transcendant unity of art and science in almost every aspect of Leonardo's life and work. Atalay seeks the consilience of science and art—painting, architecture, sculpture, music, mathematics, physics, biology, astronomy, and engineering—and the unity of the two cultures. He delves deeply into the underlying mathematics and aesthetics of science and art, paying special attention to the mathematical sequence called the Fibonacci series and to the related notion of the "golden ratio" or "divine proportion"—the keys to understanding the unity of art and nature. 32 b/w and 16 color illustrations.
In this readable, if less than compelling, disquisition on the close relationship of art and science, physics professor Atalay uses as his touchstone Leonardo da Vinci, of whom he says in his prologue: "Had [da Vinci] been able to publish the scientific ruminations found in his manuscripts in his own time, our present level of sophistication in science and technology might have been reached one or two centuries earlier." This assertion sets the buoyant tone for the rest of the book. The author marvels at the symmetries to be found in art and the natural world, discussing the Fibonacci series (0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8...) and the golden ratio related to it designated by the Greek letter phi (1.618...) with illustrated examples ranging from da Vinci's three portraits of women to the Great Pyramid and the Parthenon. He concedes the existence of asymmetry and dissonance, but chooses not to get into such subjects as chaos theory and fractals that don't fit his harmonious view of the universe. While Atalay makes an agreeable guide, he covers too much ground that will already be familiar to his likely audience.

History of Art!!

This work takes a fascinating and thought-provoking look at the major movements in the history of Western painting. It provides information about the topic ranging from the glories of High Renaissance Italy through the Romantics and Impressionists to the radical Abstract Expressionists. It contains a beautiful and colourful illustrated summary of painting's greatest works.

The Silence of the lambs!!

The Silence of the Lambs, by Thomas Harris, is even better than the successful movie. Like his earlier Red Dragon, the book takes us inside the world of professional criminal investigation. All the elements of a well-executed thriller are working here--driving suspense, compelling characters, inside information, publicity-hungry bureaucrats thwarting the search, and the clock ticking relentlessly down toward the death of another young woman. What enriches this well-told tale is the opportunity to live inside the minds of both the crime fighters and the criminals as each struggles in a prison of pain and seeks, sometimes violently, relief.

SaLmania!!

Wanted created history on Eid by recording the highest collections ever on a Monday. Wanted grossed a huge 7.25 crore nett on Monday which is higher than what Ghajini did on its first Monday. But it must be noted that the Ghajini Monday was not a holiday.
The four day nett business of Wanted is now around 25.25 crore nett and 35 crore nett first week is on the cards and it could even go higher depending what happens today.
Wanted had underperformed in parts over the first two days but its business on Eid holiday Monday means the film is a sure hit and if it can sustain from here on it could emerge a Super Hit or better.
The forthcoming musical stars Salman Khan, Ajay Devgan and Asin.
The album contains eight originals and three remixes. While most of the original numbers are interesting, the remixes are average.
"Barso Yaaro" has a total rock feel with heavy percussion and contemporary sounds. A power-packed song, it is sure to attract listeners, especially youngsters. Sung by Vishal Dadlani and Roop Kumar Rathod, the song starts with a bang but mellows down in between when Rathod makes his entry. The music then becomes more Indianised. But it does revisit the rock mode in the last minute as well...A really nice song.
Up next is "Man ko ati bhavey" crooned by Shankar Mahadevan and it combines Western music with Indianised vocals. The number is fast-paced but doesn't impress much.
It also has a remixed version.
Tapkey masti" has youngster Feroz Khan behind the microphone. Though it has a strong musical backing and a Punjabi influence, it ends up as an average number.
This too has a remixed version.
Next in line is "Khanabadosh", another heavily orchestrated track sung by Mohan. Energetic and foot-tapping, this rendition grows on you. It doesn't make an impact instantly, but the more you hear it, the more you will like it.
The remixed version of the song is not that great. The original is much better.
The next track "Khwab jo" is a complete shift from the other songs. Wonderfully sung by two brilliant singers, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and Shankar Mahadevan, it is a soft, pleasing track in the signature style of the composer trio. The number is a mix of classical and soft rock.
Roop Kumar Rathod creates an impact with the next song "Yaari bina", a strong and power-packed song that instantly gives you an adrenaline rush. It has a Sufi flavour and electronic elements as well.
Then we have "Jashn jeet ka" by Abhijit Ghoshal. The track is edgy and energetic. The highlight of the song is the electronic, rock and Arabic arrangements apart from the vocals by Ghoshal.
Finally, there is an interesting track called "Shola shola" sung by Zubeen Garg. It has a dark flavour and gives a sense of intrigue.
On the whole, the composers have churned out really interesting tunes. But Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy have tried to move away from their style and try something different with the music of 'London Dreams'.

Spider Lizard!!!
A lizard that looks startlingly like Spider-Man - Mwanza flat-headed rock agama - has become the latest fashionable pet.
Spider-Lizard, Spider-Lizard, does whatever a Spider-Lizard does Photo: CATERS NEWS
Male Mwanza flat-headed rock agama. Lizard that looks like Spider-Man is the latest pet craze
The vivid red-and-blue colouring is almost uncannily like that of the Marvel superhero, and comic book fans have been flocking to exotic pet shops to snap them up.
Agamas like the Spider-Lizard, as it has become known make good pets, as they become tame and docile if handled regularly. However, they require specialist equipment in the UK to maintain their temperature.
It can grow up to a foot long, and the squeamish may find it a problem to feed ? a balanced diet for an agama includes locusts, crickets, mealworms and waxworms.
Native to Kenya, the rock agama (Agama mwanzae) is unable to throw webs, but can change colour ? the brightly coloured males will change brown at night or if frightened. They can also run on their hind legs, and ? like Spidey ? can scale vertical walls. Amazing isnt it ??
