সত্য বলতে, হাতের লেখা ‘ সুন্দর ’ বা ভালো করা মোটেও কোন কঠিন কাজ নয়। হাতের লেখা ‘ সুন্দর ’ করতে মূল তঃ যে তিনটি বিষয় প্রয়োজন সেগুলো হলো : ১ . ‘ সুন্দর ’ করে লেখার বিষয়ে নিজের আগ্রহ বা ইচ্ছে থাকা, ২. হাতের লেখা ‘ সুন্দর ’ করার সঠিক ও সহজ কৌশল বা উপায় জানা, ও ৩. নিয়মিত হাতের লেখার চর্চা করা। হাতের লেখার মাধ্যমে বোঝা যায়, মানুষের মনোযোগ, স্থিরতা ও চিন্তা করার ক্ষমতা।   ‘ সুন্দর ’ হাতের লেখার প্রশংসা সবাই করে। আর হাতের লেখা ‘ সুন্দর ’ হলে পরীক্ষায়ও ভালো নম্বর পাওয়া যায়। নীচের পরামর্শগুলো অনুসরণ করলে হাতের লেখা অবশ্যই ‘ সুন্দর ’ হবে। ·          প্রতিটি অক্ষর বা বর্ণ স্পস্ট হতে হবে, যাতে আলাদা-আলাদা ভাবে বোঝা যায় যে, ঠিক কোন অক্ষর লেখা হয়েছে। বাংলা লেখার ক্ষেত্রে, মাত্রা র সঠিক ব্যবহার করতে হবে। ইংরেজির ক্ষেত্রে ‘ ক্যপিটাল ’ ও ‘ স্মল ’ লেটার সঠিকভাবে লিখতে হবে। ·          লেখার স্টাইল বা ধরণ (যেমন, সোজা/খাড়া বা বাঁকা/কাত) যে রকমই হোক না কেন, অক্ষরগুলোর আকার ও আকৃতি একই রকম হতে...

Background Someday in early 2008, I was traveling in an SUV (Sports Utility Vehicle) from Dhaka to Moulavi Bazar (in Bangladesh) for a field visit. One of my colleagues, who was a Geophysicist, was also accompanying me in the trip. It was about 7-8 hours journey and we were talking most of the times. Discussion topics were diverse and one of the topics was alternative energy. At that point of time oil price was in its pick, probably about 150 US$ per barrel. All of the windows of the car were closed as because the AC was on. However, for some reason, the driver opened an window while the car was moving at about 80 km per hour. So, a huge blow of fresh air entered in to the car and splashed in to my face. Suddenly I realized that our car is generating huge amount of friction with the air! In other words, if I was out of the car and sitting or standing somewhere in the same spot of the road, I might not feel that much of air speed. But while the car was moving at a certain speed it wa...

Few days back my wife taught our daughter, who is about 25 months old by now, that “PET” (a Bangla word) in English is “ belly ”. Today my wife questioned our daughter again to understand whether she can still remember the English term for “PET”. Unfortunately my daughter forgot the exact English word but she replied promptly that it is “SHAPLA”! (Probably because, she was taught earlier that the English term for “SHAPLA” is “ lilly ”!) What a correlation!

APA (stands for American Psychologocal Association) is one of the most commonly used to cite references, particularly in social sciences. A comprehensive APA formatting and style guide could be found in the following link. APA Formatting and Style Guide The guide has been published by Purdue University Online Writing Lab (OWL). In this guide I have found good examples of the general format of APA research papers, in text citations, endnotes/footnotes and the reference page. This guide has been revised according to the 6th edition of the APA manual. To learn more about APA style you can visit it's website at http://www.apastyle.org/
