Dr. Sheldon Lee Cooper

Hello. I am Dr. Sheldon Cooper (In fact I have two doctorates). I am a Theoretical Physicist at CalTech. I will receive Nobel Prize for Physics in the near future, for my discoveries in String Theory (Probability of this happening is 1). I am a Physicist and I am good at Physics alone. BAZINGA!!! Although I am a Physicist, my in-depth knowledge is not limited to Physics, but all fields of Science, Linguistics, Comic books, Science-Fiction programs and also where-to-sit-on-a-freaking-couch. I hate Arts and Geology (Believe me, Geology isn't a real science). Peace Out.

  • Which laptop to go for?

    So I'm gonna be in college in a month or so, and I want to buy a new lappy. Basically I have two options before me according to my budget. Here are the specs:

    1. Lenovo Y510p - 4th Gen Ci5/ 8GB/ 1TB/ Win8/ 2GB Graph/ FHD Display

    2. Lenovo Z510 - 4th Gen Ci7/ 8GB/ 1TB/ 8GB SSD/ Win8.1/ 2GB Graph

    Both are about the same price. I like the FHD Display of Y510p, while I am confused whether I should compromise the i7 processor for it. I will be playing quite a few games, and develop Android apps, and also since I am going for a CS program, there will be A LOT OF PROGRAMMING to do, and also some video rendering for my youtube channel. In this scenario, will i5 suffice? Or should I go for the i7 itself. Keep in mind that I would like that Full HD A LOT.

    P.S. I dont care about the SSD or the OS with which the laptop is coming in.

    Thanks in advance!

    Im a beginner, and am planning to buy Bushnell PowerView 10x50 Bino.

    Although I have elementary knowledge in basic Physics, I don't know much about Star watching.... Please tell me how to select a telescope for beginners (By saying 'beginners' I mean at least able to watch Jupiter's moons, or close. This is because, I heard that "Even small telescopes will show Jupiter's four largest satellites." from a famous website...)...

    Which of these would you prefer for above requirement? :

    a) http://www.ebay.in/itm/Pro-Astronomical-Double-Tel...
