How to confuse google trends

2006-11-02T20:20:00.000-05:00

Google has now started recording whatever song is played on your computer ... yaa they say that yes you can tell people what you are listening too..

but in the same breathe they are recording your playlist and then they compare the various playlist and come up with google trends.

So it is right.. i dunno..
yes the feature can be disable..

but there is also a method to confuse it..
copy and MP3 file and rename with whatever song you want to be high on trend and play it on window media player... keep the function Share music with trend on..

mute the media player.

google talk will show that you are listening to the song and if you put it in repeat you can easily in a few days bring your song up in playlist.

what do you say about it..

how did i become an average guy

2006-10-26T23:23:00.000-04:00

how did i become an average guy ...

i did not know..
i never knew..

how did it happen..
was it an illusion..

or is that i expect a lot from myself..

or have become very jealous..

or did i always overestimate myself and my capabilities..

hmm..
i do not know..
but whatever it is the truth is.

I have become just another average guy!!

And that is very sad!!!

Death....

2006-10-01T12:43:00.000-04:00

People chat online...

mostly because people are bored and have nothing to do...
and then you meet someone with whom you spend a couple of hours chatting..

then people like a few people they add them..

following which peole chat with those friends when they are bored.

or when they are online and then one feels there is no need to go around chat rooms...

people share emotions.. success failures..

truth sadness...

many things whoch we never share to anyone whom with know offline or our family..

but the online friend listens..

now i am not sure how much does the person listens..

as i many times do not listen to everything what my online friends say.. but in any case i give an impression that i am listening...

probably most people do the same thing and probably emotions are developed..

so why am i posting this post would be something u might wonder...

i have a good friend whose online friend died...

DIED....

what... for me the first shock was probably... that probably that he just ignored him..

but the truth is he really died.. due to COPD and deep venous thrombosis and my friend called his home and his friends and they told he is dead..

even the funeral home displaces his name.

and my friend who knew him for 4 yrs i guess and my friend were chatting together and i got a wonderful friend Kobo..
and he got him..

and he is devasted for the past 2 weeks he is not going to work..
he is not able to see patients..
and all he did was to talk to him through chat and email..

so i guess we do build emotions through chatting...

and death of one does hurt no matter whether it is offline or online...

especially when people cannot understand how important are online friends the pain is even more harder..

there is no one to share the pain.
no one to cry too..

life..

emotions...

that is how i can end this post..

Maths Love LeTTer !!!

2006-09-21T09:17:00.000-04:00

Ever wondered, how a Love Letter would be if the great Mathematecian Pythagoras had written one? Well wonder no more…

Maths Love LeTTer !!!

De-Morgan's Law,

Binomial Avenue,
United States of Matrices.

My Dear Love,

Yesterday, I was passing by your rectangular house in trigonometric lane. There I saw you with our cute circular face, conical nose and spherical eyes, standing in your triangular garden. Before seeing you my heart was a null set, but when a vector of magnitude (likeness) from your eyes at a deviation of theta radians made a tangent to my heart, it differentiated. My love for you is a quadratic equation with real roots, which only you can solve by making good binary relation with me. The cosine of my love for you extends to infinity. I promise that I should not resolve you into partial functions but if I do so, you can integrate me by applying the limits from zero to infinity.

You are as essential to me as an element to a set. The geometry of my life revolves around your acute personality. My love, if you do not meet me at parabola restaurant on date 10 at sunset, when the sun is making an angle of 160 degrees, my heart would be like a solved polynomial of degree 10.

With love from your higher order derivatives of maxima and minima, of an unknown function.

Yours ever

Loving,

Pythagoras

Tom & Jerry in trouble in for smoking scenes

2006-08-23T07:26:00.000-04:00

LONDON (Reuters) - They chase each other at high speed, wielding axes and hammers. But the famous cartoon duo of Tom and Jerry are in trouble in Britain for smoking on screen.

Media regulator Ofcom received a complaint from a viewer who took offence at two episodes involving smoking.

In one, "Texas Tom," the hapless cat Tom tries to impress a feline female by rolling a cigarette, lighting it and smoking it with one hand. In the other, "Tennis Chumps," Tom's opponent in a match smokes a large cigar.

In a bulletin posted online, Ofcom noted "concerns that smoking on television may normalize smoking," and said that the Turner company, licensee for Boomerang which aired the cartoons, had agreed to edit some smoking scenes out of Tom and Jerry.

"The licensee has ... proposed editing any scenes or references in the series where smoking appeared to be condoned, acceptable, glamorized or where it might encourage imitation," Ofcom said, adding that "Texas Tom" was one such example.

But it would not cut all smoking scenes, it added.

Ofcom said it recognized smoking was more generally accepted when cartoons were produced in the 1940s, 50s and 60s, but noted that the threshold for including such scenes when the audience is predominately young should be high.

Is it true there used to be cocaine in Coca-Cola?

2006-05-08T06:25:00.000-04:00

Indeed, a certain stimulant was present in the soft drink back in 1886, according to the Soda Museum, but probably in mild amounts. Coca-Cola was named after its two key ingredients -- coca leaves and kola nuts.

Coca leaves contain small amounts of cocaine, and people in the Andean region of South America have a long tradition of chewing them for their effects as a mild stimulant, appetite suppressant, and altitude sickness remedy. To make cocaine powder, a much stronger stimulant, coca leaves undergo elaborate processing that involves washes by kerosene and several chemicals.

Coca-Cola used syrup from the coca leaves that probably introduced trace amounts of the active substance into the drink. But concern about cocaine addiction grew in the early 20th century, and in the United States, the Harrison Act of 1914 banned the use of the drug in non-prescription products.

When technology improved enough to make it possible, Coca-Cola started using "spent" coca leaves, which go through a cocaine extraction process, rather than fresh leaves, for flavor. It gives a whole new meaning to "I'd like to buy the world a Coke," doesn't it?

unlike the company owned by a rich man...

I appreciate every product of google as it is innovative and i felt they were honest..

but now i really doubt..

One for the men

2006-04-27T01:48:00.000-04:00

A middle aged man bought a brand new Holden Monaro.
He took off down the road, pushed it up to 130 km/hr, and was enjoying the wind blowing through his (thinning) hair. "This is great," he thought and accelerated to an even higher speed.

But then he looked in his rear-view mirror, and there was a Police Car behind him, blue lights flashing.

"I can get away from him with no problem" thought the man and he floored it some more, and flew down the road at over 210 km/hr to escape being stopped.

Then he thought, "What the hell am I doing? I'm too old for this kind of thing" and pulled over to the side of the road, and waited for the Police car to catch up with him.

The Policeman pulled in behind the Monaro and walked up on the driver's side.

"Sir my Shift ends in five minutes and today is Friday the 13th. If you can give me a good reason why you were speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."

The man looked back at the Policeman and said,"Last week my wife ran off with a Policeman, and I thought you were bringing her back."

The Policeman said, "Have a nice day."

Top 10 College Films of All Time

2006-04-21T04:34:00.000-04:00

Suzanne Podhurst
The Princeton Review

If you ever thought your crazy life at college would make a great movie, you're not alone. American filmmakers have long tapped into the drama and energy of the American college scene. Some of these flicks are better than others, of course, so The Princeton Review--in the tradition of its famous college rankings--has narrowed down the top ten college films. What's more, all of the movies described below feature colleges included in The Princeton Review's collection of The Best 361 Colleges. Learn more about each of these colleges by clicking the "Featured school" links.

(10) Mona Lisa Smile
Featured school: Wellesley College
Starring Julia Roberts, Kirsten Dunst, Julia Stiles, and Maggie Gyllenhaal, Mona Lisa Smile (2003) explores the challenges and value of independent thinking. Setting the film at Wellesley, a small women's liberal arts school, seems a good choice: Students report that the Wellesley experience is "all about finding who you are, even when the world tells you something otherwise." In the film, set in the 1950s, art professor Katherine Ann Watson (played by Roberts) encourages her students to rethink the traditional roles they've been taught. It's professors like this who prompt today's Wellesley women to call their profs amazing and inspiring.

(9) P.S.
Featured school: Columbia University
Ever wonder just how tough it is to get into an Ivy League college like Columbia? Just ask Scott Feinstadt, a prospective Columbia student in this 2004 romantic comedy who has an illicit affair with an admissions officer, played by Laura Linney. Remember, this is just a movie. In real life, while just 11 percent of applicants to Columbia are accepted, students with good grades, high SAT scores, impressive arrays of extracurriculars, and that fire in the belly for learning stand a solid chance. Please note: We do not recommend the Scott Feinstadt approach.

(8) Outside Providence
Featured school: Brown University
In this 1999 coming-of-age drama, teen rebel Tim Dunphy gets into so much trouble that his father sends him off to the Cornwall Academy for Boys with the directive that he must graduate and keep himself out of trouble. While trying to balance the demands of school and steering clear of troublemaking, Tim falls for Jane Weston, a straight-arrow student soon on her way to Brown. What's the appeal of this Ivy? Well, for one thing, students report that "being at Brown means you will never again have to take a class if you don't want to." Think of it as an un-rebellious kind of rebellion. (Dating Tim Dunphy, on the other hand, may be just plain rebellious.) Real Brown students report that Providence is also a lovely place for romance, illicit or otherwise.

(7) With Honors
Featured school: Harvard University
In this 1994 film, a spoiled grad student named Monty (played by Brendan Fraser) somehow finds his thesis in the hands of Simon (played by Joe Pesci), a vagabond who lives in the basement of one of the university's libraries. Simon agrees to return the thesis--which Monty needs to graduate with honors--but insists he will return it just one page at a time in exchange for a series of favors. The unlikely pair strike up a friendship, and Monty learns some of his most important lessons not from his books, but from Simon. As far as book lessons go, though, Harvard students praise their school's "unparalleled" academics and note that there is always something going on. In fact, they say that the hardest part is balancing all of the work with all the other interesting options on campus. Oh, and speaking of university libraries, students boast that theirs are the best in America.

(6) Rudy
Featured school: Notre Dame
Based on a true story, this 1993 movie tells the story of Rudy Ruettiger, an unlikely football player who has long dreamed of playing on the famed Fighting Irish team at Notre Dame despite being relatively small for the position. He ultimately manages to transfer to the university from nearby Holy Cross and even secures a place on the team. Students at Notre Dame share Rudy's enthusiasm for the sport, reporting that football season is the most fun time of the year and that thousands of people come on football game weekends. They also remark that tradition--one that Rudy helped make--is the great strength of their school.

(5) Good Will Hunting
Featured school: Massachusetts Institute of Technology
In this academic love story from 1997, Will Hunting (played by Matt Damon) goes from working as the janitor at the world-famous MIT to being inadvertently discovered for having one of the keenest mathematical intellects of the century. Students at MIT boast that it is "the ultimate academic powerhouse." To that end, the school is "hard to get into and hard to stay in." While Will has no problem proving his capacity to do the most cutting-edge math, he finds it harder to express his love for Harvard undergrad Skylar (played by Minnie Driver).

(4) A Beautiful Mind
Featured school: Princeton
This 2001 biopic about the mathematician John Nash (played by Russell Crowe) offers insights into mental illness, the mathematical analysis known as game theory, and of course, campus life at Princeton. Like Good Will Hunting, this film succeeds at dramatizing the unlikely combination of math and romance. The leading lady in this case is Nash's wife, Alicia (Jennifer Connelly), and though the two face a different set of troubles than Will and Skylar did, they share a similar strength of love, which blossoms on the New Jersey campus. At Princeton, undergrads like having access to Nobel laureates--like Nash--"who teach you and give you appointments" for their office hours.

(3) Animal House
Featured schools: The fictional Faber College is based on cowriter Chris Miller's experiences at Dartmouth College and was filmed at the University of Oregon.
"We can do anything we want. We're college students!" the characters in this classic 1978 film proudly declare. Although the college in Animal House is fictional, it's widely known to be based, at least to some degree, on real-life experiences. This is the movie that brought you the brothers of Delta and Omega and their many toga parties (which, after the movie's release, became increasingly popular at colleges across the country). While some administrators (Dean Wormer, for example) may object to this party-school mentality, many students think of Animal House as a model for how college ought to be.

(2) Forrest Gump
Featured school: University of Alabama
In this classic 1994 film (based on the 1985 book by Winston Groom), Tom Hanks delivers an Oscar-winning performance playing the title character. Despite his below-average IQ, Forrest finds himself in a number of truly remarkable situations: giving dance lessons to Elvis and meeting Presidents Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon, for example. He's also drafted to play on the University of Alabama football team after his extraordinary running ability is discovered by the team's legendary coach Paul "Bear" Bryant. (While at the school, Forrest also witnesses the famous desegregation of the campus as well as George Wallace's infamous blocking of the doors.) Today's 'Bama students confirm that the school's athletic tradition continues: "People really love sports here, especially football. It's a really athletic school with great recreational facilities."

(1) The Graduate
Featured school: UC-Berkeley
This classic 1967 film (based on the 1963 novel) starring Anne Bancroft and Dustin Hoffman tells a tale of an illicit romance between Benjamin Braddock and Mrs. Robinson, the mother of Elaine (Katharine Ross), with whom Ben ultimately falls in love. He even follows Elaine to the University of California-Berkeley. But can his affection for her persuade Elaine to forgive him for his affair with her mother? We'll venture to guess it's not a question that most of today's Berkeley students ponder, even in the "amazing number and variety of classes" offered at the UC flagship campus. The profs there, if asked, might advise that having an affair with the mother of your girlfriend is not the best way to win her heart. They may concede that it does make a classic movie plot, though.

The Spanish Computer

2006-04-20T03:17:00.000-04:00

A Spanish teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike
English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.

"House" for instance, is feminine: "la casa."

"Pencil," however, is masculine: "el lapiz."

A student asked, "What gender is 'computer'?"

Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two
groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves whether
"computer" should be a masculine or a feminine noun.

Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.

The men's group decided that "computer" should definitely be of the
feminine gender ("la computadora"), because:

1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;

2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is
incomprehensible to everyone else;

3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for
possible later retrieval; and

4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending
half your paycheque on accessories for it.

(THIS GETS BETTER!)

The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine
("el computador"), because:

1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;

2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;

3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they
ARE the problem; and

4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a
little longer, you could have gotten a better model.

The women won!

Bananas!

2006-03-23T00:02:00.000-05:00

Bananas!

This is interesting.

After Reading this, you'll never look at a banana in the same way again.

Bananas. Containing three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber, a banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes. But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.

Depression : According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

PMS : Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

Anemia : High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.

Blood Pressure : This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it the perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke

Brain Power : 200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school were helped
through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

Constipation : High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.

Hangovers : One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.

Heartburn : Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

Morning Sickness : Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood
sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.

Mosquito bites : Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the
affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

Nerves : Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.
Overweight and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria
found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and
crisps. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady

Ulcers : The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders
because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

Temperature control: Many other cultures see bananas as a "cooling" fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand , for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

Seasonal = Affective Disorder (SAD) : Bananas can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood enhancer tryptophan.

Smoking: Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.

Stress : Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat,
sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance. When we
are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be balanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.

Strokes : According to research in "The New England Journal of Medicine,
"eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%!

Warts: Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with the yellow side out. Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!

So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around. So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, "A banana a day keeps the doctor away!"

The Languages That God Speaks

2006-03-12T22:26:00.000-05:00

From : Warrior of The Light Issue No.105
By : Paulo Coelho

A Spanish missionary was visiting an island when he came across three Aztec priests.

“How do you pray?” asked the priest.

“We have only one prayer, “ answered one of the Aztecs. "We say: “God, You are three, we are three. Have mercy on us.”

“Beautiful prayer,” said the missionary. “But it is not exactly the prayer that God hears. I shall teach you a much better one.”

The priest taught them a Catholic prayer and went on his way to spread the Gospel among others. Years later, on the ship taking him back to Spain, he stopped at that island once more. From the deck he saw the three holy men on the beach – and waved farewell to them.

At that moment the three began to walk on the water towards him.

“Father! Father!” shouted one of them, approaching the ship. “Teach us again the prayer that God hears, because we can’t remember it!”

“It doesn’t matter,” said the missionary, seeing the miracle. And he asked God to forgive him for not understanding before that He spoke all languages.

Below are some of those prayers:

Dhammapada (attributed to Buddha)
Instead of a thousand words,
Better just one,
One that brings peace.
Instead of a thousand verses,
Better just one,
One that shows beauty.
Instead of a thousand songs,
Better just one,
One that spreads joy.

Mevlana Jelaluddin Rumi, 13th century
Out there, besides what is right and what is wrong, there is an enormous field.
That is where we will meet.

Prophet Mohammed, 7th century
Oh Allah! I come to you because you know all, even what is hidden.
If what I am doing is good for me and my religion, for my life now and later, then let the task be easy and blessed.
If what I am doing now is bad for me and my religion, for my life now and later, then keep me far from this task.

Jesus of Nazareth, Matthew 7;7-8
Ask, and it shall be given you;
seek and you shall find;
knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
For every one that asks receives;
and he that seeks finds:
And to him that knocks,
it shall be opened.

Jewish prayer for peace
We shall go the mountain of the Lord, where we shall walk with Him. We shall change our swords into plows and our spears into baskets for harvesting fruit.
Let no nation raise its sword against another, and let us never learn the art of war.
And no-one should fear his neighbor, because thus spoke the Lord.

Lao Tsu, China – 6th century B.C.
For there to be peace in the world, the nations must live in peace.
For there to be peace among nations, cities must not rise up against one another.
For there to be peace in the cities, neighbors must get on well with one another.
For there to be peace among neighbors, harmony must reign in the home.
For there to be harmony at home, it must be found in your own heart.

Stories of affairs

2006-02-05T21:10:00.000-05:00

The 1st Affair

A married man was having an affair with his secretary.
One day they went to her place
and made love all afternoon.
Exhausted, they fell asleep
and woke up at 8 PM .
The man hurriedly dressed
and told his lover to take his shoes
outside and rub them in the grass and dirt.
He put on his shoes and drove home.
"Where have you been?" his wife demanded.
"I can't lie to you," he replied,
"I'm having an affair with my secretary.
We had sex all afternoon."
She looked down at his shoes and said:
"You lying bastard!
You've been playing golf!"

The 2nd Affair

A middle-aged couple had two beautiful daughters
but always talked about having a son.
They decided to try one last time
for the son they always wanted.
The wife got pregnant
and delivered a healthy baby boy.
The joyful father rushed to the nursery
to see his new son.
He was horrified
at the ugliest child he had ever seen.
He told his wife: "There's no way I can be the father of this baby.
Look at the two beautiful daughters I fathered!
Have you been fooling around behind my back?"
The wife smiled sweetly and replied:
"Not this time!"

The 3rd Affair

A mortician was working late one night.
He examined the body of Mr. Schwartz,
about to be cremated,
and made a startling discovery.
Schwartz had the largest private part
he had ever seen!
"I'm sorry Mr. Schwartz," the mortician
commented, "I can't allow you to be cremated
with such an impressive private part.
It must be saved for posterity."
So, he removed it,
stuffed it into his briefcase,
and took it home
"I have something to show
you won't believe," he said to his wife,
opening his briefcase.
"My God!" the wife exclaimed,
"Schwartz is dead!"

The 4th Affair

A woman was in bed with her lover
when she heard her husband
opening the front door.
"Hurry," she said, "stand in the corner."
She rubbed baby oil all over him,
then dusted him with talcum powder.
"Don't move until I tell you,"
she said, " pretend you're a statue."
"What's this?" the husband inquired
as he entered the room.
"Oh it's a statue," she replied,
"the Smiths bought one and I liked it
so I got one for us, too."
No more was said,
not even when they went to bed.
Around 2 AM the husband got up,
went to the kitchen and returned
with a sandwich and a beer.
"Here," he said to the statue, have this.
I stood like that for two days at the Smiths
and nobody offered me a damned thing."

The 5th Affair

A man walked into a cafe,
went to the bar and ordered a beer.
"Certainly, Sir , that'll be one cent."
"One Cent?" the man exclaimed.
He glanced at the menu and asked:
"How much for a nice juicy steak
and a bottle of wine?"
"A nickel," the barman replied.
"A nickel?" exclaimed the man.
"Where's the guy who owns this place?"
The bartender replied:
"Upstairs, with my wife."
The man asked: "What's he doing upstairs
with your wife?"
The bartender replied:
"The same thing
I'm doing to his business down here."

The 6th Affair

Jake was dying. His wife sat at the bedside. `
He looked up and said weakly:
"I have something I must confess."
"There's no need to, " his wife replied.
"No," he insisted,
"I want to die in peace.
I slept with your sister, your best friend,
her best friend, and your mother!"
"I know," she replied,
" now just rest
and let the poison work."

HOW TO : Turn a pinball machine into a light-up coffee-table

2006-01-20T00:12:00.000-05:00

Here's a HOWTO for converting a pinball machine's light-up playfield into an electrified coffee-table; the recipe calls for a beat-up playfield from a nonfunctional pinball machine, which is cool, since it avoids the guilt associated with decommissioning a glorious old pinball machine.

Step 1 Materials List

Here are the materials you will need for this project

1 pinball playfield
2 side pieces of wood cut to fit
2 end pieces of wood cut to fit
Moulding to be used for the top to hold the glass on
Tempered glass cut to fit
Four legs and hardware to attach
6V battery
Rocker switch
Screws and nails
Wood glue
Drill

EGYPTIAN PRINCESS

2005-11-21T08:19:00.000-05:00

Of all tales of the supernatural, this one is perhaps the best documented, the most disturbing and the most difficult to explain... The Princess of Amen-Ra lived in 1050 B.C. When she died, she was laid in an ornate wooden coffin and buried deep in a vault at Luxor, on the banks of the Nile. In the 1880s, four rich young Englishmen visiting the excavations at Luxor were invited to buy an exquisitely fashioned mummy case containing the remains of the Princess of Amen-Ra. They drew lots. The man who won paid several thousand pounds and had the coffin taken to his hotel. A few hours later, he was seen walking out towards the desert. He never returned. The next day, one of the remaining three men was shot by an Egyptian servant accidentally. His arm was so severely wounded it had to be amputated. The third man in the foursome found on his return home that the bank holding his entire savings had failed. The fourth man suffered a severe illness, lost his job and was reduced to selling matches in the street. Nevertheless, the coffin reached England (causing other misfortunes along the way), where it was bought by a London businessman. After three of his family members had been injured in a road accident and his house damaged by fire, the businessman donated it to the British Museum. As the coffin was being unloaded from a wagon in the museum courtyard, the wagon suddenly went into reverse and trapped a passer-by. Then as the casket was being lifted up the stairs by two workmen, one fell and broke his leg. The other, apparently in perfect health, died unaccountably two days later. Once the Princess was installed in the Egyptian Room, trouble really started. Museum's night watchmen frequently heard frantic hammering and sobbing from the coffin. Other exhibits in the room were also often hurled about at night. One watchman died on duty; causing the other watchmen wanting to quit. Cleaners refused to go near the Princess, too. When a visitor derisively flicked a dust cloth at the face painted on the coffin, his child died of measles soon afterwards. Finally, the authorities had the mummy carried down to the basement, figuring it could not do any harm down there, while leaving the lid of the coffin on display. (The lid of the coffin (Exhibit No. 22542) is still there!) Within a week, one of the helpers was seriously ill, and the supervisor of the move was found dead on his desk. By now, the papers had heard of it. A journalist photographer took a picture of the mummy case and when he developed it, the painting on the coffin was of a horrifying, human face. The photographer was said to have gone home then, locked his bedroom door and shot himself. Soon afterwards, the museum sold the mummy to a private collector. After continual misfortune (and deaths), the owner banished it to the attic. A well-known authority on the occult, Madame Helena Blavatsky, visited the premises. Upon entry, she was sized with a shivering fit and searched the house for the source of "an evil influence of incredible intensity". She finally came to the attic and found the mummy case. "Can you exorcise this evil spirit?" asked the owner. "There is no such thing as exorcism. Evil remains evil forever. Nothing can be done about it. I implore you to get rid of this evil as soon as possible." But no British museum would take the mummy; the fact that almost 20 people had met with misfortune, disaster or death from handling the casket, in barely 10 years, was now well known. Eventually, a hardheaded American archaeologist (who dismissed the happenings as quirks of circumstance), paid a handsome price for the mummy and arranged for its removal to New York. In April of 1912, the new owner escorted its treasure aboard a sparkling, new White Star liner about to make its maiden voyage to New York. Because the reputation of the mummy was well known, the owner, who was a chess player named William T. Stead, was afraid that his cargo would not be loaded. Therefore, he secretly arranged for the mummy to be hidden under the body of a new Renault automobile, which was being transported to America on the ship. Stead did not reveal the truth about his cargo to the other passengers until the night before the next disaster. On the night of April 14, amid scenes of unprecedented horror, the Princess of Amen-Ra accompanied 1,500 passengers to their deaths at the bottom of the Atlantic.

Read this question, come up with an answer, and then scroll down to the
bottom for the result. This is not a trick question. It is as it reads.
No one I know has gotten it right - including me.

A woman, while at the funeral of her own mother, met this guy whom she
did not know. She thought this guy was amazing, She believed him to be her
dream and she fell in love with him right there but did not ask for his
number and no matter how hard she tried she could not find him.

A few days later she killed her sister.

Question: What is her motive in killing her sister?



Give this some thought before you answer.


(Scroll Down)
















Answer:

She was hoping that the guy would appear at the funeral again.

If you answered this correctly, you think like a psychopath. This was a
test by a famous American Psychologist used to test if one has the same
mentality as a killer.

Many arrested serial killers took part in the test and answered the
question correctly. If you didn't answer the question correctly - good for you.

If you got the answer correct, please let me know so I can take you off

What is Diwali

2005-11-01T09:32:00.000-05:00

Diwali

Diwālī or Dīpāvali (also transliterated Deepavali; Sanskrit: row of lights) is the Hindu Festival of Lights.
Diwali is one of the most popular and eagerly awaited festivals of India. It is celebrated for 5 consecutive days in Hindu month of Ashwayuja which usually correspond to the months of October or November. Hindus, Jains and Sikhs celebrate Diwali and use the occasion to celebrate life and strengthen relationships.
Typically, celebrations focus on lights and lamps, particularly traditional diyas , although electric lights have become widespread. Fireworks may also be associated with the festival in some regions.

Significance in Hinduism

The festival marks the victory of good over evil.

On the day of Diwali, traditionally, the old and the young, rich and poor, wear new dresses, share sweets and also burn firecrackers. The North Indian business community starts their financial new year on Diwali and new account books are opened on this day.
Hindus find cause to celebrate this festival for different reasons:
In North India, Diwali celebrates the return of the Rama, King of Ayodhya, his wife Sita and brother Lakshmana to Ayodhya from a war in which he killed the demon king Ravana. It is believed that the people lit oil lamps along the way to light their path in the darkness. In North India, the festival is held on the final day of the Vikram calendar. The following day marks the beginning of the North Indian new year, and is called Annakut.

In South India, it commemorates the killing of Narakasura, an evil demon, by Lord Krishna. In South India, Diwali does not coincide with the beginning of a new year as South Indians follow a different calendar, the Shalivahana calendar.

In Bhavishyottara and Bramhavaivarta Purana, Diwali is associated with the Daitya king Bali, who is allowed to return to earth once a year.

The Five days of Diwali

Diwali is celebrated over five days in most of North India as:

First day

The first day of the festival is known as Dhan teras or Dhantrayodashi. Dhan means "wealth" and Trayodashi means "13th day". Thus, as the name implies, this day falls on the 13th day of the first half of the lunar month. On this day, it is believed that Lord Dhanvantari emerged from the waters of the ocean holding the knowledge of the spiritual medicines of Ayurveda, to help mankind fight against sickness, disease and death.
On this day people purchase valuables, light lamps using oil-filled clay cups and worship the Goddess of Wealth. They also worship Yama, the Lord of Death, seeking protection against untimely death. Parents and elders accompany children to the market looking for firecrackers and sweets, if they have not bought some already. Those who have brought them home spread the crackers in the sunlight and allow them to dry, so that when the time comes they perform well.

Second day

Diwali has emerged as one of the most famous Hindu festivals. An integral part of Diwali decorations, Rangoli is a colorful pattern drawn on the floor.

The second day of the festival is known as Naraka Chaturdasi. (Narak means of a new era of Light and Knowledge. Chaturdasi implies fourteenth day.)
Lord Sri Krishna, supported by his consort Satyabhama and his huge army, is said to have killed the demon Narkasura, in a legendary battle between the gods and demons, and released the world from the darkness of fear and oppression. In the process, He also set free the 16,000 divine energies of the Mother Goddess, held hitherto in possession forcibly by the evil demon.

On this auspicious day, people usually take a ritual bath before sunrise, using traditional herbs and materials, just as Lord Krishna is believed to have done after He returned victorious from the battlefield. They spend the remaining day restfully in the company of friends and family. It is also believed that on this day, Lord Vishnu was incarnated upon earth as Vamana and set his third step on the head of the demon king Bali to send him down into the nether worlds to free the worlds from his rule and release the goddess Lakshmi from his control.

Third day (actual day of Diwali)

The actual day of Diwali is celebrated on the third day of the festival, when the moon completely wanes and total darkness sets in the night sky. It is in this darkness that Diwali finds its true expression. On this day people worship Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, and express their gratitude for previous favors.
Usually the puja is performed both in the morning and again in the evening when the sun is ready to set or has already set. It is believed that the Goddess would not visit a devotee's house if it is not kept clean and properly lighted, so everyone strives to keep their houses clean, the doors and windows open and all the lights and lamps glowing brightly.
During the worship, devotes make offerings to Lord Vinayaka and Mother Goddess also, in addition to the principal deity, with traditional chants, rituals, purified water, new clothes, fruit and flowers, sweets, light, sandal paste, incense, rice, turmeric and vermillion. Money and valuables are placed before the principal deity during the invocation.
At the end of the worship, prasadam is offered to the family members and visitors. In wealthy households, the assistance of a temple priest is sought to conduct the worship according to the scriptural injunctions. After worshipping the goddess in one's own house, people start making rounds to the nearby temples, and the houses of friends and relations to see how the celebration has been going on and distribute sweets and gifts. Elsewhere, the goddess is worshipped ceremonially in temples, public places, business houses and offices.
As the evening comes, houses and streets are decorated with innumerable lights, lamps and candles. People keep the doors and windows open and all the lights on, expecting the goddess to come inside and take a survey of the things that have been done for her sake. Outside, people gather in the streets and front yards to burn firecrackers, or watch others burning them or keep an eye on the oil lamps. Some habitual card players use the occasion as an opportunity to play cards and gamble their money.

On this day Lord Krishna is believed to have completed His incarnation upon earth and left this world, leaving the pandavas and his kinsmen in utter confusion. According to Jain tradition, Lord Mahavira, the last of the Thirthakaras attained Nirvana on this day. It is also said that on this day, young Nachiketa of the Kathopanishad received divine and secret knowledge of immortality from Lord Yama, the Lord of Death.

Fourth day

The fourth day is variously known as Padwa, Varshapratipada and Kartika Shudda Padyami. At the behest of Lord Krishna the people of Braj worshipped the hillock Govardhan on this day to save themselves from an impending storm unleashed by the fury of Indra, the Lord of Heaven.
Even now, in northern India, in the region of Braj, people continue the tradition of worshipping Govardhan on this auspicious day. This is sometimes interpreted as an act of invocation to appease the forces of Nature to prevent the occurrence of floods and cyclonic storms, a tradition that is probably rooted in the Vedic times.
In the temples of Mathura and Nathdwara, priests give a special bath to the principal deities on this occasion and decorate them with glittering robes and eye-catching jewellery. They offer many food preparations to Krishna and later distribute it (the prasadam) among the devotees.
In some traditional households, women give aarti to their husbands and receive gifts and blessings in return. Business people open new account books for the new financial year and offer prayers for luck and prosperity.
[edit]

Fifth day

On the fifth and final day of the festival, which is known as Bhayiduj, Bhayyaduj, Bhaubeej or Bhayitika, brothers and sisters meet to express their love and affection for each other. Sisters put a ceremonial mark, usually with vermillion, on their brothers' foreheads and wish them long lives. According to a legend, the tradition began when Yamuna, the sister of Lord Yama, honored her brother with a tilak on his forehead and wished him long life.
In South India, naraka chaturdashii is the main day of celebration, with a lot of firecrackers at dawn, while in North India the main celebration is on Amavasya evening with Lakshmi Puja followed by lighting of oil lamps in and around the house and bursting of crackers.

A Hundred Dollar Story!

2005-10-23T01:16:00.000-04:00

A tourist walks into a curio shop in San Francisco. Looking around at
the exotica, he notices a very lifelike, life-sized bronze statue of a
rat. It has no price tag, but is so striking he decides he must have
it.


He takes it to the owner: "How much for the bronze rat?"


"Twelve dollars for the rat, one hundred dollars for the story," says
the owner.


The tourist gives the man twelve dollars. "I'll just take the rat, you
can keep the story."


As he walks down the street carrying his bronze rat, he notices that a
few real rats  crawl out of the alleys and sewers and begin following
him down the street. This is disconcerting; he begins walking faster.
But within a couple blocks, the herd of rats behind him grows to
hundreds, and they begin squealing.


He begins to trot toward the Bay, looking around to see that the rats
now numbered in the MILLIONS, and are still squealing and coming
toward him faster and faster.


Concerned, even scared, he runs to the edge of the Bay and throws the
bronze rat as far out into the Bay as he can. Amazingly, the millions
of rats all jump into the Bay after it, and are all drowned.


The man walks back to the curio shop.


"Ah ha," says the owner, "You have come back for the story?"


"No," says the man, "I came back to see if you have a bronze
politician!"

This is what Oprah has to say about men...

2005-10-22T00:47:00.000-04:00

If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away.

If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.

Stop making excuses for a man and his behaviour. Allow your intuition
(or spirit) to save you from heartache.
Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to
be.
Slower is better.

Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly
happy.

If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you
deserve then heck no, you can't "be friends". A friend wouldn't
mistreat a friend. Don't settle.

If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is.
Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at
yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.

The only person you can control in a relationship is you.

Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women.
He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, why would he treat you
any differently?

Always have your own set of friends separate from his.
Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you,
speak up.

Never let a man know everything.* He will use it against you later.

You cannot change a man's behaviour.* Change comes from within.

Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are... even if he
has more education or in a better job. Do not make him into a quasi-god.

He is a man, nothing more nothing less.

Never let a man define who you are.

Never borrow someone else's man.

If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.

A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.

All men are NOT dogs.

You should not be the one doing all the bending...compromise is a two
Way street.

You need time to heal between relationships...there is nothing cute
about baggage... deal with your issues before pursuing a new
relationship

You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you...a relationship
consists of two WHOLE individuals...look for someone complimentary...not
supplementary.

Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.

Make him miss you sometimes...when a man always know where you are, and
you're always readily available to him - he takes it for granted. -
Isn't this TRUE!!!!!

Never move into his mother's house.

Never co-sign for a man.

Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you
need.* Keep him in your radar but get to know others.

Share this with other women... You'll make someone smile, another
rethink her choices, and another prepare!!!

You Are The Opposite of Machiavellian

You don't have a cynical, power hungry bone in your body.

You Are Somewhat Machiavellian

You understand how the world works, even when it's an ugly place.
You just don't get ugly yourself - unless you have to!

Father passing by his teenage daughter's bedroom was astonished to see the>bed was nicely made and everything was neat and tidy.

Then he saw anenvelope propped up prominently on the centre of the pillow. It>was addressed "Dad". With the worst premonition, he opened the envelopeand read the letter with trembling hands :-

Dear Dad,
It is with great regret and sorrow that I'm writing you, but I'm leaving home.
I had to elope with my new boyfriend Randy because I wanted to avoid ascene with Mom and you.

I've been finding real passion with Randy and he is so nice to me. I knowwhen you meet him you'll like him too even with all his piercing, tattoos, and motorcycle clothes. But it's notonly the passion Dad, I'm pregnant and Randy said that he wants me to have the kid and that we can be very happy together.

Even though Randy is much older than me (anyway, 42 isn't so old thesedays is it?), and has no money,really these things shouldn't stand in the way of our relationship, don't you agree?
Randy has a great CD collection; he already owns a trailer in the woodsand has a stack of firewood for the whole winter. It's true he has other girlfriends as well but I know he'll be faithfulto me in his own way. He wants to have many more children with me and that's now one of my dreams too. Randy taught me that marijuana doesn't really hurt anyone and he'll begrowing it for us and we'll trade it with our friends for all the cocaine and ecstasy we want. In the meantime,we'll pray that science will find a cure for AIDS so Randy can get better; he sure deserves it!!
Don't worry Dad, I'm 15 years old now and I know how to take care of myself. Someday I'm sure we'll be back to visit so you can get to know your grandchildren.

Your loving daughter,
Rosie.

At the bottom of the page were the letters "PTO".
Hands still trembling, her father turned the sheet, and read :

PS : Dad, none of the above is true. I'm over at the neighbour's house. Ijust wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than my report card that's in my desk centre drawer. Please sign it and call when it is safe for me to comehome. I love you!!!

Enjoy!!!!!!!!! Its must ...

A nice story

2005-10-06T08:50:00.000-04:00

His name was Fleming, and he was a poor Scottish farmer. One day, while trying to make a living for his family, he heard a cry for help coming from a nearby bog. He dropped his tools and ran to the bog.
There, mired to his waist in black muck, was a terrified boy, screaming and struggling to free himself. Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what could have been a slow and terrifying death. The next day, a fancy carriage pulled up to the Scotsman's sparse surroundings. An elegantly dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced himself as the father of the boy Farmer Fleming had saved. "I want to repay you," said the nobleman. "You saved my son's life." "No, I can't accept payment for what I did," the Scottish farmer replied waving off the offer. At that moment, the farmer's own son came to the door of the family hovel. "Is that your son?" the nobleman asked. "Yes," the farmer replied proudly. "I'll make you a deal. Let me provide him with the level of education my own son will enjoy. If the lad is anything like his father, he'll no doubt grow to be a man we both will be proud of." And that he did. Farmer Fleming's son attended the very best schools and in time, graduated from St. Mary's Hospital Medical School in London, and went on to become known throughout the world as the noted Sir Alexander Fleming, the discoverer of Penicillin. Years afterward, the same nobleman's son who was saved from the bog was stricken with pneumonia. What saved his life this time? Penicillin. The name of the nobleman? Lord Randolph Churchill. His son's name? Sir Winston Churchill. Someone once said: What goes around comes around. Work like you don't need the money. Love like you've never been hurt. Dance like nobody's watching. Sing like nobody's listening. Live like it's Heaven on Earth. It's National Friendship Week. Send this to everyone you consider A FRIEND. Pass this on, and brighten someone's day. AN IRISH FRIENDSHIP WISH: You had better send this back!! Good Luck! I hope it works... May there always be work for your hands to do; May your purse always hold a coin or two; May the sun always shine on your windowpane; May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain; May the hand of a friend always be near you; May God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.

Foetuses found at Bogota airport (Scary huh?!?!)

2005-09-29T23:18:00.000-04:00

(Something I just read in http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/4293934.stm , it is scary)

Police officer holds the bodies of two of three human foetuses found at Bogota Airport
Police said the foetuses might have been meant for Satanic rituals
Colombian police have found the bodies of three human foetuses hidden in statues destined for the United States.

The discovery was made by officers searching for contraband at Bogota Airport on Tuesday.

The corpses were wrapped in plastic and concealed inside statues of Christian icons, which were smashed open.

Colombian police chief Gen Jord Alirio Varon said the four- to five-month-old foetuses could have been intended for use in Satanic rituals.

Gen Varon said the foetuses were found alongside crucifixes and medals.

He said officials are trying to find out who sent the packages, which came from Barranquilla in Colombia and were destined for Miami in the US.

The story of two Nuns..

2005-09-09T05:38:00.000-04:00

TWO NUNS

There were two nuns...

One of them was known as Sister Mathematical (SM),

and the other one was known as Sister Logical (SL).

It is getting dark and they are still far away from the convent.
SM: Have you noticed that a man has been following us for
the past thirty-eight and a half minutes? I wonder what he wants.
SL: It's logical. He wants to rape us.
SM: Oh, no! At this rate he will reach us in 15 minutes
at the most! What can we do? SL: The only logical thing to do of course is to walk faster.
SM: It's not working.
SL: Of course it's not working. The man did the only
logical thing. He started to walk faster, too.
SM: So, what shall we do? At this rate he will reach us in one minute.
SL: The only logical thing we can do is split. You go that way and
I'll go this way. He cannot follow us both.

So the man decided to follow Sister Logical.
Sister Mathematical arrives at the convent and is
worried about what has happened to Sister Logical.

Then Sister Logical arrives.
SM: Sister Logical! Thank God you are here!
Tell me what happened!
SL: The only logical thing happened.
The man couldn't follow us both,so he followed me
SM: Yes, yes! But what happened then?
SL: The only logical thing happened. I started to run
as fast as I could and he started to run as fast as he could.
SM: And?
SL: The only logical thing happened. He reached me SM: Oh, dear! What did you do?
SL: The only logical thing to do. I lifted my dress up.
SM: Oh, Sister! What did the man do?
SL: The only logical thing to do. He pulled down his pants.

SM: Oh, no! What happened then?
SL: Isn't it logical, Sister?
A nun with her dress up can run faster than a man with his pants down.

And for those of you who thought it would be dirty,

I'll pray for you!

break ups..

2005-08-25T06:56:00.000-04:00

breaks ups this name brings fears into ears of people in love..
i never faced an issue ever in my life...
but recently one of my friends is going through one..
i felt that the feeling of one person missing in one's life is missed the most
but there are many other prespectives..
one of the main things that play a role is gift..
gifts are given
when there is a break up what to do with them comes th question..
many remind of the incidence what made u get the gift from you ex..
so u may feel like giving it back to the owner..
whereas some gift would have become ur part of life that u start loving that thing
so u do not want to be apart from it..
wow see lot of pains..
i learnt from this experience.. if i get a girl friend give her gifts that are edible...
hahahaaaa

A nice Question

2005-08-19T09:35:00.000-04:00

Do read it and try to solve:::
Once there was a bus conductor, who was very rude to his passengers.
One day a beautiful young girl, of around 18 years,tried to board the bus,
but he didn't stop the bus. Unfortunately the beautiful young girl came
under the bus and died on the spot. Angry passengers took the conductor to
the police station, who in turn took him to the court.
The judge was not at all impressed with him and gave him capital
punishment.He was taken to the electrocution chamber. There was a single
chair in the center of the room and a single banana peel at one corner of
the room.
The conductor was strapped to the chair and high voltage current was given
to him. But to everyone's amazement, he survived. The judge decided to set
him free, and he returned to his profession.
After a few months, this time, a good looking middle aged woman tried to
board the bus but the conductor didn't stop the bus.
Unfortunately, this time also,the good looking middle aged woman came under
the bus and died on the spot. Again angry passengers took him to the police
station, who in turn took him to the court. The judge took one look at the
conductor and gave him capital punishment.
The Bus conductor was taken to the same electrocution chamber where there
was a single chair in the center of the room and a single banana peel at one
corner of the room. He was strapped to the chair and high voltage current
was given to him. This time also to everyone's amazement, he survived. The
judge decided to set him free, and he returned to his profession.
A couple of months later, an elderly gentleman tried to board the bus. This
time the Bus conductor, remembering his earlier experiences, stopped the
bus. Unfortunately the elderly gentleman slipped and died due to his
injuries. The conductor was taken to
the police station and then to the court, to the same judge. Though he
hadn't done anything wrong, but considering his past record the judge
decided to set an example and gave him capital punishment.
The Bus conductor was again taken to the same electrocution chamber where
there was a single chair in the center of the room and a single banana peel
at one corner of the room. He was strapped to the chair and high voltage
current was given to him. This time he died instantly !!!!!!!!!!!

The question is why didn't he die on the first two occasions, but died
instantly the third time?? Try to solve it yourselves. This is rather
interesting and answer is perfectly logical. If necessary read the puzzle
once again. Still if you can't, then look below.........

think hard

Answer:

During the first two times, the conductor was a Bad Conductor, therefore
electricity didn't pass through him. But during the third time, he was a
good conductor, electricity passed through him freely and he
died!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ha Ha Ha ha !!!!!!!!

Don't look for me to beat.

friendship

2005-08-16T08:46:00.000-04:00

I got a true stroy about how good is friendship...
i would like to share with you all

Hope this will make petra smile..

Horror gripped the heart of a World War-I soldier, as he saw hislifelong friend fall in battle. The soldier asked his Lieutenant if hecould go out to bring his fallen comrade back. "You can go," said theLieutenant, "but don't think it will be worth it. Your friend isprobably dead and you may throw your life away. "The Lieutenant'swords didn't matter, and the soldier went anyway. Miraculously, hemanaged to reach his friend, hoisted him onto his shoulder and broughthim back to their company's trench. The officer checked the woundedsoldier , then looked kindly at his friend. " I told you it wouldn'tbe worth it," he said. "Your friend is dead and you are mortallywounded." " It was worth it, Sir," said the soldier. "What do you meanby worth it?" responded the Lieutenant. " Your friend is dead." "YesSir,"the soldier answered, " but it was worth it because when I got tohim, he was still alive and I had the satisfaction of hearing himsay...."Jim...I knew you'd come." Many times in life, whether a thingis worth doing or not,really depends on how u look at it. Take up allyour courage and do something your heart tells you to do so that youmay not regret not doing it later in your life........

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

2005-07-30T23:45:00.000-04:00

Twice a day, on his way to and from school, little Charlie Bucket had to walk right past the gates of the factory. And every time he went by he would begin to walk very, very slowly, and he would hold his nose high in the air and take long deep sniffs of the gorgeous chocolatey smell all around him. Oh, how he loved that smell! And oh, how he wished he could go inside the factory and see what it was like.

- Roald Dahl
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Acclaimed director Tim Burton brings his vividly imaginative style to the beloved Roald Dahl classic Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, about eccentric chocolatier Willy Wonka (JOHNNY DEPP) and Charlie Bucket (FREDDIE HIGHMORE), a good-hearted boy from a poor family who lives in the shadow of Wonka's extraordinary factory.

Most nights in the Bucket home, dinner is a watered-down bowl of cabbage soup, which young Charlie gladly shares with his mother (HELENA BONHAM CARTER) and father (NOAH TAYLOR) and both pairs of grandparents. Theirs is a tiny, tumbledown, drafty old house but it is filled with love. Every night, the last thing Charlie sees from his window is the great factory, and he drifts off to sleep dreaming about what might be inside.

For nearly fifteen years, no one has seen a single worker going in or coming out of the factory, or caught a glimpse of Willy Wonka himself, yet, mysteriously, great quantities of chocolate are still being made and shipped to shops all over the world.

One day Willy Wonka makes a momentous announcement. He will open his famous factory and reveal "all of its secrets and magic" to five lucky children who find golden tickets hidden inside five randomly selected Wonka chocolate bars.

Nothing would make Charlie's family happier than to see him win but the odds are very much against him as they can only afford to buy one chocolate bar a year, for his birthday.

Indeed, one by one, news breaks around the world about the children finding golden tickets and Charlie's hope grows dimmer. First there is gluttonous Augustus Gloop, who thinks of nothing but stuffing sweets into his mouth all day, followed by spoiled Veruca Salt, who throws fits if her father doesn't buy her everything she wants. Next comes Violet Beauregarde, a champion gum chewer who cares only for the trophies in her display case, and finally surly Mike Teavee, who's always showing off how much smarter he is than everyone else.

But then, something wonderful happens. Charlie finds some money on the snowy street and takes it to the nearest store for a Wonka Whipple-Scrumptious Fudgemallow Delight, thinking only of how hungry he is and how good it will taste. There, under the wrapper is a flash of gold. It's the last ticket. Charlie is going to the factory! His Grandpa Joe (DAVID KELLY) is so excited by the news that he springs out of bed as if suddenly years younger, remembering a happier time when he used to work in the factory, before Willy Wonka closed its gates to the town forever. The family decides that Grandpa Joe should be the one to accompany Charlie on this once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

Once inside, Charlie is dazzled by one amazing sight after another. Wondrous gleaming contraptions of Wonka's own invention churn, pop and whistle, producing ever new and different edible delights. Crews of merry Oompa-Loompas mine mountains of fudge beside a frothy chocolate waterfall or ride a translucent, spun-sugar, dragon-headed boat down a chocolate river past crops of twisted candy cane trees and edible mint-sugar grass. Marshmallow cherry creams grow on shrubs, ripe and sweet. Elsewhere, a hundred trained squirrels on a hundred tiny stools shell nuts for chocolate bars faster than any machine and Wonka himself pilots an impossible glass elevator that rockets sideways, slantways and every which way you can think of through the vast and fantastic factory.

Almost as intriguing as his fanciful inventions is Willy Wonka himself, a gracious but most unconventional host. He thinks about almost nothing but candy - except, every once in a while, when he suddenly seems to be thinking about something that happened long ago, that he can't quite talk about. It's been said that Wonka hasn't stepped outside the factory for years. Who he truly is and why he has devoted his life to making sweets Charlie can only guess.

Meanwhile, the other children prove to be a rotten bunch, so consumed with themselves that they scarcely appreciate the wonder of Wonka's creations. One by one, their greedy, spoiled, mean-spirited or know-it-all personalities lead them into all kinds of trouble that force them off the tour before it's even finished.

When only little Charlie Bucket is left, Willy Wonka reveals the final secret, the absolute grandest prize of all: the keys to the factory itself. Long isolated from his own family, Wonka feels it is time to find an heir to his candy empire, someone he can trust to carry on with his life's work and so he devised this elaborate contest to select that one special child.

What he never expects is that his act of immeasurable generosity might bring him an even more valuable gift in return.

Pictures presents, in association with Village Roadshow Pictures, a Zanuck Company / Plan B Production of a Tim Burton Film: Johnny Depp stars in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, based on the book by Roald Dahl, and also starring Freddie Highmore, David Kelly, Helena Bonham Carter, Noah Taylor, Missi Pyle, James Fox, with Deep Roy and Christopher Lee.

has anyone else noticed similar symptoms...

heheehee

( i am bored and i guess no one reads this blog so i am having fun)

Decision making

2005-07-01T01:26:00.000-04:00

The story given below is quite interesting and
really gives us an insight into DECISION MAKING.
Which one will you choose?

A group of children were playing near two railway
tracks, one still in use while the other disused.
Only one child played on the disused track, the
rest on the operational track. The train came, and
you were just beside the track interchange.
You could make the train change its course to the
disused track and saved most of the kids.

However, that would also mean the lone child
playing by the disused track would be sacrificed.
Or would you rather let the train go its way?
Let's take a pause to think what kind of decision we could
make................

No cheating...
>
>
>
>
>
>
>
>
>
>
>
>

>
Most people might choose to divert the course of
the train, and sacrifice only one child.
You might think the same way, I guess.
Exactly, I thought the same way initially because to save
most of the children at the expense of only one child was
rational decision most people would make normally and emotionally.
But, have you ever thought that the child choosing to play on the disused
track had in fact made the right decision to play at a safe place?

Nevertheless, he had to be sacrificed because of his ignorant friends who
chose to play where the danger was. This kind of dilemma happens around
us everyday. In the office, community, in politics and especially in a
democratic society, the minority is often sacrificed for the interest of
the majority, no matter how foolish or ignorant the majority are, and how
farsighted and knowledgeable the minority are.

The child who chose not to play with the rest on the operational track was
sidelined. And in the case he was sacrificed, no one would shed a tear
for him.

The friend who forwarded me the story said he would not try to change the
course of the train because he believed that the kids playing on the
perational track should have known very well that track was still in
use,and that they should have run away if they heard the train's sirens.

If the train was diverted, that lone child would definitely die because he
never thought the train could come over to that track!

Moreover, that track was not in use probably because it was not safe.If the
train was diverted to the track, we could put the lives of all passengers
on board at stake! And in your attempt to save a few kids by sacrificing
one child, you might end up sacrificing hundreds of people to save these
few kids.

While we are all aware that life is full of tough decisions that need to be
made, we may not realize that hasty decisions may not always be the right
one.

"Remember that what's right isn't always popular...
and what's popular isn't always right."

Everybody makes mistakes; that's why they put
erasers on pencils.

The internet world......

2005-06-30T22:14:00.000-04:00

Of late i have been noticing my behaviour
and the effect internet is having on my behaviour

i notice that i have been spending quite some time on this internet

I noticed...

people spend time much more than needed in people who they have never met
over the internet
make good friends and loose friends whom are available
just because ur online friends write good things and send wonderful emoicons...

but now i question....

do they really mean it.....

do people whom u never meet say more lies than people whom you can meet??

Do people who know that they will never be identified and you can never meet them in your life time... flirt with you fearlessly and play with your heart... and do not care with your feelings.....

wheras people who know u can meet them... take ur feelings more seriously...

what do u have to say about it....

Children.....

2005-06-27T01:04:00.000-04:00

Hmm.... Children... have you thought about it

when they are young have you seen them as they follow the parents

trying to catch their parents foot steps...

can u guess while they are walking behind them in a beach them where do they step on sand

9 out of 10 times on the foot prints of one of their parents.....

then they grow bigger... bolder they try to walk alone...

they think that they are different --- this is teenage... when u feel u can do things better than others and all you see is barriers and a feeling as if no one understands you.....

time passes......

you come to twenties .... you become mature.... but u still want to be different....
but you can identify similarities... with their parents

once one crosses 30's every year the person becomes more like their parents as they were.....

eating in a similar way... liking similar food...

talking similar way.... and mainly thinking becomes similar....

And then time passes the young boy who is now a man tries to walk confidently on the sand like his father although he knows his parents are not walking in front of him but beside him...

and from the corner of the eye he sees the his new young chap trying to walk his steps and smiles...

This is life...

im sooo sorry

2005-06-26T01:04:00.000-04:00

COOKING

2005-06-25T20:58:00.000-04:00

I have noticed of recently something about cooking and here i share with you all...

First let me tel you about myself ... I have never had any formal education when it comes to cooking....
My mom never told me too cook...
But yes I am My Mama's Boy and I ever since I remember I always walk behind my mother caring a book telling her everything I read in the book...
So I would say a major part of my School studies occured in the Kitchen..
So there has been many opportunites in which my mom will tell me to have an eye on what she is cooking and put of the LPG stove when it is done.....
that is all i know about cooking....

Now recently I learnt cooking from a person anmd the style of cooking is quite different from my mom's...
Also I have of recently started taking receipes from friends on what they cook and how they cook as I knew i need to learn to cook as it is needed...

So it happened as expected I had to began cooking....
and I have noticed even after learning cooking from people who food tastes different from my mom's
I have ended up making stuff like my mom...
Some even tastes like hers.... wow....

Now what is the reason behind this--
1. Like a few things knowledge of cooking can also be got subconsiously... so i learnt subconsiously

2.I guess all people food taste similar and i had my mo's food for a long time so all i can colaborate my taste of food to my mom...

3. I am bad learner that even after learning cooking from people I screw up and to be satisfy myself I tell that it tastes like my mom's..

what do u all think..
give your views...
also if anyone who reads this cooks please do tell me do you cook food similar to your mom or is it totally different from what ur mom cooks...

What Girls think.... A man's view Part 1

2005-06-24T22:06:00.000-04:00

It has been from eternity that never has a man understood what a woman really thinks... what is behind that eyes that glow and sparkle when necessary....

To began this series a few things I have noticed about boys and girls...

Part 1- Friendship

Two boys can be closest friends but may not even talk
all they do is throw a ball to each other... go to a bar together... sit and watch tv together
communication is not necessary between two guys to be the closest friends
as long his best friend can sit with him all through a ball game and support his team they will be the best friends....

I recently met a close friend of mine i guess we met about 8 yrs later we had no communication but 3 minutes into the meeting we went back to same old pal situation no issues and we are still the best friends....

this episode made me think do girls think the same thing have life simple like a boy...

And the answer is NO

Girls by nature are not so simple creatures
I guess they are not because they are the epitome of a relationship
all relationship in a family surrounds around one female.. always
It is as if that Male is just a person whose responsibility is to bring food regualarly
family contacts, maintainance of relationship
upbringing of a child depends on a woman...
even in the man dominated family ( which is decreasing day by day) woman are the anchor...

so with this basal knowledge how do u expect two girls who are friends to behave
do they behave like boys sit around watch TV nd become good friends
the answer is no...

girls need to talk.. talk anything from gossip to gossip
like to be appreciated and want to be supported ( all though girls need support from their friends for a friendship but men are the ones who need support and caring in a relationship..isn't it an irony)
A woman needs another woman but a man needs a woman...

friendship in girls breaks if communication is lost
and when they remeet it takes more than 3 min to be best pals again..
A girl needs to know what her friend support not some team in a ball game but her view point in the surrounding environment
Is she worthy enough to have an alliance...

That is the reason a guy can sit watch TV and not think as he does not see the weight playing around in the surrounding but enjoy the moment...
unlike a girl who in her basal state thinks about how to interact with a particular person...

The question is in this complex society will it be simple if girls start behaving like boys...
or will it go worse...
what do u say...

A wonderful poem touching my heart...

2005-06-23T09:49:00.000-04:00

Don't hide

Don't hide the secret in your heart,
my friend!
Say it to me,in confidence.
You,who smile so kindly,
say it whispering,
my heart will listen to it,
not my ears.
The night is deep,
the house surrounded by silence,
the birds' nests shut up during sleep time.
Reveal to me,
in the middle of hesitating tears,
in the middle of tembling smiles,
in the middle of pain and shame,
the secret or your heart.

(Rabindranath Tagore )
