  1. There are just 100 days to go for another brilliant season of the Olympics. This time it is going to be held in London and the Olympic committee has set aside a budget of $14.8 billion. London happens to be the first city ever to host the Olympics three times in the modern era.Source: http://edition.cnn.com/2012/04/18/sport/olympics-100-days-london-2012/index.html?hpt=hp_mid
  2. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ The famous American TV host: Richard Wagstaff Clark”, passed away yesterday (18/4/12), due to a heart attack, he was 82 years old. He started his carrier in 1947 with WRUN-AM, NY as an office worker, who was later asked to fill in for the weatherman temporarily. In 1952 he began broadcasting a show called Bob Horns Bandstand, which later took the name American Bandstand. In 1972 he produced and hosted New Year’s Rocking Eve. He also spent a good time hosting the Top-40 radio countdown. In his personal life he was married three times. He suffered a stroke in 2004, where his speech was impaired. He also had type-2 diabetes.
  3. Yeah: Solar energy, hydro and winds energy etc. are good alternatives to fossil fuel which are already in use and being developed even further but I feel it is good to venture and look into less traditional means and explore their viability.
  4. Thanks, you do have a point there about people who care-less about a few things and give ridiculous attention to other contrary things. In the city of Mumbai too I have noticed an increase in the cat population and the decrease in number of sparrows. I remember I once built a sparrows nest out of a shoe box and kept it above my door but there are no sparrow coming to my place now. I live in an apartment on the 3rd floor, cats often come up and liter the place and sometimes rummage through garbage boxes that are kept outside. Very often we have male and female cats growling and fighting at night. The people here say that if you kill a cat you need to make a cat out of gold and present it in a temple they also say that when cats growl someone is going to die. I don’t know who gets on my nerves more, these cats or these people.
  5. yeah Yordon, he was a handsome dog, a mix, had a little setter blood in him. He was a good guard dog to.
  6. Alcatel is known for making mobile phones, which are value for money as well as sophisticated. The Alcatel Onetouch 990 runs on Android 2.2 Froyo OS. It has a 3.5 inch screen and weighs 144gm. The touch is very smooth and sensitive and the finish of the phone is good, for a phone that Rs.10000 online. The resolution of the phone is good but the photos all have a bluish tinge, even though it has a 5 megapixels at its disposal with LED flash and auto focus. The phone cries out for more internal memory, as every time you download an app, it shows low phone memory. Considering that not all apps can be shifted from phone memory to memory card, this becomes a problem. When the phone memory is low, even the text messages are rejected. This phone is 3G ready up to 7.2 mbps; it also has a Wi-Fi support, which is all powered by a 1300mAH battery. The earphones that come with the phone are not appealing at all and the phone does seem power efficient.
  7. With fossil fuel rising in price by the day, the tremendous pollution that comes with it and related environmental concerns, it is time that the world invest more in alternative means of energy than fossil fuel. Here are a few ideas: With the human population growing in number, what you are left is feeding more people more food but that food mostly reaches those who already have plenty. As there already is medication that makes a person pass his fat as stools, why can’t this be used as a source of oil? At-least this way the fat people will lose weight which they will like and that oil can be used as some source of energy. The world population is about 7 billion of which 65% is overweight or obese, which will be a lot of oil. Neutrinos: These are electrically neutral particles origination mostly from the Sun’s nuclear activity. These are so much in plenty that 65 billion pass through an area as big as a man’s thumbnail per second. Since these particles are electrically neutral, they pass greater distances through solid objects. If we could harness this energy then this energy would power the whole world inexhaustibly while still giving us clean energy. Thunder and lightning are also huge power sources, why can we use them too or generate environments where we can use them
  8. Do you know cats around the world have spoiled so much of the natural ecosystem? For example in New Zealand or Australia, cats have been known to diminish so much of the natural wildlife that the best thing the country has sought to do is shoot them. The shooters then proudly wears the cat’s fur as head gear.I hate cats because, they are unappreciative animals. A dog will never bite the hand that feeds it but you cannot expect the same from a cat. I think the best place for cats are Veitnam, at least there they will be put to good use and the fur can be sent back as nice soft hand bags for the ladies.If you ever have a problem of an unwanted cat at your front door, you can just take a cap of concentrated phenyl and throw it on its face. The cat with immediately run away due the strong smell.As I am not allowed to shoot the cats that tear my garage cover and bike seat, I just give them a nice solid football kick and see them do 2 to 3 amazing cartwheels in the air.P.S: A rifle is the best tool to bring a cat down, that is stuck-up in a tree.
  9. Sometime you figure that the girl is not giving you what you want and you feel like someone who has left home to buy oranges and you are stuck with someone who is selling only apples. They say that the only true love is unrequited love. I don’t think that is true in its entirety because that is like punching a bag and calling it a boxing tournament.I believe everything has a purpose whether you want to see it for its purpose or not. I also believe that everything is predestined with a purpose, right from the moment we spend in deep trash to the happier ones. When a relationship sees failure, I don’t think there is any better thing to do than ‘move on’ but this is so difficult. The hurt is like an emotional maggot wound and keeps us painfully anxious.Sometimes I wonder if I am called to be alone and if these failures in relationship are the thorn in me that keeps my humility in check. All you can do in these times is live of moment and leave the rest in God’s faithful hands for everything has its own time and He will make sure that you don’t brood when that time is up over and out.
  10. Within just a week of the 6.5 magnitude earthquake in Michoacan, Mexico, there is now a 5450m evacuation around Popocatepetl volcano as the alert level has now reached the ‘yellow stage three’. I guess this will take its toll globally as well, especially considering the rise in global warming. Source: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-17750891
  11. You guys ought to check this out! source: http://www.cnn.com/2012/04/17/tech/iphone-app-aims-to-program-your-dreams-inception-anyone/index.html This will make nice tool for those who are disturbed and would prefer to have a pleasant dream. I wonder how well this really works and if people can influence your dreams, they how far is the iPhone from influencing your thought process. It seems free will sell soon at the cost of IPhone.
  12. My pet dog Rip (as in Rip Van Winkle) because of the amount he slept.
  13. It is unclear from where kickboxing started but Muay-Thai is the best free hand martial art for self defense and street fighting. It also helps you burn huge calories and even builds you in strength. In Thai kick boxing, a person uses his heel, instep, shin, knee, fist and elbow, making the most of his body a deadly weapon.You may also consider Krav Maga, if you can arrange for a good teacher. Alternatively even boxing will help you lose a lot of weight.
  14. Yordon, your right in saying that buddy,Along with increasing the lens size, I think those lenses which are used in night vision that draw in maximum light would also come in handy especially in low light conditions.
