Pirates are back

Jack Sparrow is probably the only gay behaving guy that I will ever find fascinating.and the quality of acting Johnny Depp puts in to carry the character out is unbelievable. Witty and funny, reckless asshole who is selfish and self loathing but still, fascinating.


The funny thing about all the Pirates movie before was that many watched it for Jack Sparrow, I suppose someone should come up with a movie focusing on the cocky pirate itself.


Apart from that, what else that makes Pirates of the Carribean franchise such a mega hit is the setting that it has, some sort the same reason half the world stopped to watch Prince Wiliiam marry Kate Middleton, setting de royale. The set and costumes worn by the Pirates and the story line which includes plenty of fascinating characters are like different flavors to the already fantastic script.


Looking forward to watch the latest edition of Pirates of the Carribean ; On Stranger Tides

Back to the present 1

Missed blogging for a while now, 

there is just 

an absolute feel of satisfaction in writing 

that is 

so powerfully expressive 

that it goes to describe 

every single detail of my world 

that I have never felt anywhere else.

Many doubt on blogging as they have doubts anyone would read it. Guess its not for everyone.

Anyways, back to me.Finally done with my thesis, and oh boy, it took the life out of me, that thesis. Countless hours of worrying, finding million ways to run the simulation, the typing, the formatting, printing and cost.It was like Apocalypto, if you know what I mean.And when I finally got my results for the project, i was beaming proud. I scored an A-.

Other things have been going slow, life has a way of changing direction and talking about life and direction.I realized a simple and effective way of judging how a person views life; by the way they behave on the road.

For me, I love it when Im alone on the road, and I don't need to worry about having a car in front of me, and I especially love to travel at night when the wind is cool and I am the king of my road.

How are you on the road? Is that how you are in life...? If its right, please like at least leave a comment, so I can test whether my supposed theory has any other believers. Till then, thanks for reading and 

GOD BLESS SIR HUMPHRY DAVY.

Champione!

Happy Mother's Day!

Someone wise once said that love every religion that has love and peace messages in it, let it be not your own, as long as it tells people to love one another and be in peace with nature.

Islam is a beautiful religion.Many dont see that way, learn the truth about Islam, it is something beautiful.

And in honor of my mom this mothers day, I quote this from the Muslim scripture:

الجَنَّةُ تَحْتَ أقْدَامِ الأمَّهَات
Maksudnya: “Syurga itu berada di bawah telapak kaki para ibu.”

 Hadith ini diriwayatkan oleh Ibn ‘Adiy (ابن عدي) dan al-’Aqiliy (العقيلي) di dalam al-Dhu’afa’ daripada Ibn ‘Abbas R.’anhuma.

Akan tetapi terdapat hadith lain yang membawa makna yang sama dengan hadith ini, iaitulah hadith dari Mu’awiyah bin Jahimah (معاوية بن جاهمة ) yang datang kepada Nabi S.A.W. dan berkata:
يا رسول الله أردت أن أغزو، وقد جئت أستشيرك, فقالهل لك أم؟ قال: نعم. قال : فالزمها فإن الجنة تحت رجليها
Maksudnya: “Wahai Rasulullah, aku ingin pergi perperang, aku datang untuk meminta pandangan-mu.

 Nabi S.A.W. bertanya: Apakah kamu mempunyai ibu?
Jawabnya: “Ya”. Sabda Nabi S.A.W.: Peliharalah (berbuat baiklah kepada) dia, sesungguhnya syurga berada di bawah dua kakinya.”

It simply means there is heaven at the sole of a mother's feet.Happy mother's day mom! With all my heart and soul, I love you and wish you all the happiness in this world.

Dear God, if you dont bless me, its okay, bless my mom! <3

Havent had a laugh in a long time?

TRADITIONAL CAPITALISM
You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull. Your heard grows and the economy grows. You sell them and retire on the income.

You sell three of them to your publically-listed company, using letters of credit opened by your brother-in-law at the bank…then execute a debt/equity swap with an associated general offer, to that you get all four cows back, with a tax-exemption for five cows.


The milk rights of the six cows are transferred via an intermediary to a Cayman Island company secretly owned by the majority shareholder, who sells the rights to all seven cows back to your listed company.


The annual report says the company owns eight cows, with an option on one more. You sell one cow to buy a new president of the United States, leaving you with nine cows. No balance sheet is provided with the release.


The public then buys your bull.

The boys in red march to Wember-leyy....

43 years after first lifting the European Cup at the old Wembley,a new Manchester United side consisting of a a Dutch, a Serbian, a Frenhman, three Brazilians, a Portugese, a Mexican, a Korean and countless other nationalities are attempting to make that dream come true once again.

I shed tears of extreme joy when I saw Van Der Sar save those penalties in Moscow and felt the pain in tears of sadness in Rome when we were outclasssed by Barcelona.

We are the boys in red and we are going to wember-leyy...

My heart says, we will win it this time, ill write about it more in the future, but for now.......im going to bask in the glory of Man United...!!

GLORY GLORY MAN UNITED!

Happy May 4th

See, watch, listen but always believe what you want to believe

Its almost ten years since I first heard about Osama Bin Laden and how he is a terrorist and all that he is linked too,yet I have never actually looked at him like he is guilty or what so ever.The reason is because I have never been shown conclusive proof of his link to 9/11, if they want me to believe, they should show me the proof or otherwise innocent till proven guilty.(the American public should think the same way too)

But anyways, I do understand why the US found Osama as a scapegoat.

Can you see any other way for a mighty nation like the U.S to be attacked so viciously in broad daylight with their own planes come out with anything else than telling the world it was a major plot by a major terrorist group led by this fearsome long bearded,millionaire Arab named Osama Bin Laden?

What suprises me is the ignorance of the people who buys their stories?!
Seriously, the only reason the media report it in a way that its going to cause apocalypse is because they know it would sell like hot cakes and as for news channels, its all about the viewer ratings, ratings,ratings,nothing else.Heck, even the most reliable channel, CNN provides us with the same news over and over again,fashioned in different ways including experts,news reports,just to attract us so that we would sit and watch it like our lives depended on it.For those who spend less time thinking and more time buying into these propaganda's ,with all due respect, I am sorry.I am sorry for your ultimate ignorance to read too much into mass media and believing them.Especially the British press.
Thus, FUCK U BBC.

Anyways, back to what I was saying about the media and its bullshit, the media's role in society is a very misleading one, eventhough the media appears to be the link and access to information, one should ask not whether it is link to information or not but about the validity of the information provided?

For example, read this article by AP (associated press)  http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/42859650

Its about the information by the media quoted from various U.S officials including Barack Obama himself, stating that Osama Bin Laden was killed in Attotabad,Pakistan late Monday night (in Pakistani time) and was shipped onto USS Carl Vinson before the a burial procedure where thebody was prepared on a flat board,tipped up and eased into the North Arabian Sea. (its hard to check the vailidity of the statements here,so keep on reading the article till u reach >>>)

"It was not clear Monday whether the Obama administration intended to release its photos of bin Laden's body."

>>>THIS IS THE TIP OFF THAT SHOWS THAT THIS IS ALL SOME FUCKING HOAX BY THE OBAMA ADMINSTRATION.

CMON, YOU WERE HAPPY TO TRIAL SADDAM AND SHOW PICTURES OF HIM DEAD AND HIS SONS TO MIKE,JOE AND JOHN FUCKIN DOE BACK HOME IN ALABAMA SO THAT THEY CAN CELEBRATE IT WITH A COUPLE OF BEERS AND RE-ELECT YOUR ASS BACK INTO SEAT THE NEXT TERM,WOULDNT YOU RELEASE THE PICTURE TO DEFAME THE VERY MAN WHICH YOU CLAIM HAVE ATTACKED YOUR CONTRY AND INSULTED YOUR COUNTRY?

WHAT?YOU WONT? OR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SAYS ITS NOT CLEAR YET...............WHY ISNT IT CLEAR? IS IT HARD TO MAKE YOUR MIND ON IT? BUT I THOUGHT YOU GUYS WERE THE U FUCKIN S.A?



Bottom line: Dont simply read or listen into the media, look for information yourself, surf the net, check out wikileaks, and most important of all, make your own decisions, dont let BBC, CNN OR AL JAZEERA make it for you.They just want you to believe into things that the powerful people want you too, so that it will be easier to handle you, how else would 5% politicians control 95 % of the population.......right? right?



of course im right.................because im not spreading propanda here.have a good day guys.

Welcome to the Obama administration,how can I "help" you?

Peace

People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered.

Love them anyway.

If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.

Do good anyway.

If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies.

Succeed anyway.

The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.

Do good anyway.

Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.

Be honest and frank anyway.

The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds.

Build anyway.

People really need help but may attack you if you do help them.

Help people anyway.

Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth.

The light bulb myth

Did you know that Thomas Alva Edison might have been the greatest inventor in history with up to 1093 patents but did not actually invent the light bulb?

The idea behind the ingenious idea of light bulb belongs to English scientist Sir Humphry Davy,who invented arc lighting (using a carbon filament). For many years, numerous innovators would improve on Davy's model. The only problem: none could glow for more than twelve hours before the filament broke.

So,why is it always credited to Edison?

Edison together with his technician's in the lab were the first to find the right filament that would burn for days on end.Definitely a major contribution but not the inventors.

Might be a few years late but anyways,its time to honor the rightful inventor of the light bulb,

Sir Humphry Davy



Sir Humphry Davy (caution:pic might be mythical too :P)



Gotta love the geordies

Finally,im writing about football again,there's always an itch to write about football,it just never goes..haha...anyways,after United's last game against Newcastle, there was something that I realized.
St.James's park or whatever that fat,chest-baring nut of an owner might have named the place is just a great stadium to play at.It has the atmosphere football had in England back in the 90's.It was just like then,when I  remember watching Cantona,Shearer,Zola,Henry,McManaman and many other lite up the stage of English footballl with a backdrop of passionate cheering supporters.You just dont get those kind of supporters anymore today, except for a few places like in Britannia,Molineux and especially at St.James's.

49,025 fans in black and white strip, geordies you call them,respect I give them.

And damn,wasnt it a tough game there last night,passionate,passionate play by the team.Alan Pardew did promise that his team will fight all the way, and by having Tiote back, there were in full swing, and oh that boy Barton, he proved that he can play football too,Collocini and Guttiriez were magnificent as usual.Come to think about it, with better management, and better than Pardew(somebody please) the boys in black and white have a better future in the league.9th place doesnt really reflect their potential, a team that can bounce back from 4-0 down at home are a team that is of belief.And belief son, in any sport, can take you right to the top.

Yes you are legend Sir Alan Shearer,perhaps England's finest striker in modern day football

and to commemorate the loyal,passionate fans of Newcastle United, I'll give to you,some of their finest terrace chants.(CAUTION:You may be offended.hah!)

On their amusement of how fast Carroll stepped on them to Liverpool

He's not your friend

he's not my friend

he beats his girlfriend

andy Carroll!

 

 

 

On the love for Newcastle

 

Newcastle, Newcastle, Newcastle,

Newcastle, Newcastle, Newcastle,

Newcastle, Newcastle, Newcastle,

NEWCASTLE, NEWCASTLE!!

 

 

 

Again,the passion

 

"this club is my club

made out of two club

to form united

oh what a great club

we'll always be there

win, lose we dont care

we are the geordies of NUFC"

 

 

 

and finally,on their 'love' for Sunderland..haha

 

When I was a little bitty boy

My grandmother bought me a cute little toy,

Two Sunderland fans, hanging on a string,

She told me to kick their f*cking heads in.

Mackems on a string,

Mackems on a string,

She told me to kick their f*cking heads in.

Mackems on a string,

Mackems on a string,

She told me to kick their f*cking heads in.

A russian wedding

This post might be a little offensive and a whole load of tragicness,but what the heck,its funny.lol.
Have a read and maybe you will be somewhere else today thinking back,laughing to yourself about it.


In 2010, a Russian wedding ended in tragedy after a game of Russian roulette went wrong, leaving one guest with a life-threatening gunshot wound to his head. A home video of the wedding in Astrakhan, southern Russia, shows a grinning friend of the groom unexpectedly pulling a pistol from his waistband, putting it to his temple and squeezing the trigger. The gun emits only a clicking sound and the smiling gunman asks who else wants to try his luck.



Another guest is shown taking up the offer, but this time the trick goes wrong. The second man pulls the trigger and immediately collapses to the floor as the gun releases a rubber bullet into his skull at point-blank range. He was reported to be fighting for his life.


The gunman, a 33 year-old Chechen man, insists he was sure that he had emptied the pistol's chamber of every bullet and says he only wanted to enliven the wedding. But local police do not believe him and have opened a criminal investigation into the tragic incident.

Here is a video of the event.....hahahahahahaa....

She's not the same!

When you meet someone so eerily similar and you wonder why that is,you tend to find out how could it be.and when you cant,you try to deny it is similar.but you are denying it because you are afraid there is someone just like you,who walks talks acts like you and would think the same like you,and there wont be anywhere where you could be yourself because that person is just like you,and he will be there too.

isnt that right preets?

do you feel scared??

come to papa....


haha,but seriously, you were equally as shocked as I was,isnt it? its like we know we think alike and have the same interests,i kind of read your so called personality description of a dreamy idealist, and I am that too....maybe I got it all wrong, maybe its that when you find someone like you,you wish it was someone more like you than ever before,because for once, there wont be a need to explain more,they'd just understand,they wont be a neccessity for a lie,they wont be a reason for changing the topic,it would be all the simpler...

it is quite puzzling....whatever it is,im awesome....and she is not so bad,kinda nice girl....really good friend,and smart too,adorable when she is angry and loosing to me,but still adorable and kinda fun to be with,bet she is smiling from ear to ear now.

This picture further creeps me out...

Little Boy and Fat Man

You'd be fooled if you thought this post is about some small boy or a fat man.

Little Boy and Fat Man are the code names of the two atomic bombs used by the Americans to pound their fist and officially register as the first nuclear arseholes at Hiroshima (Little Boy) first and Nagasaki (Fat Man) later.


No prizes for guessing which is which


The impact on Hiroshima killed an estimated 80 000 people and the casualtiy by the end of 1945 was 90-14000 and countless from radiation later on.

The impact on Nagasaki killed an estimate 79 884 and the casualties from radiation later on was never really known.

Eventhough its common knowledge that the Japanese were  cruel  when they invaded other countries, the answer to that is never violence, especially to those innocents leaving in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

why dont you just hold those involved in the Japanese Military for trial in manslaughter?

Nuclear weapon is never the answer,or the matter of fact,any weapon.Biological,chemical,nuclear, nothing.


As the Great Bob Marley once said,

We should really love each other in peace and harmony, instead we're fussin' n fighting like we ain't supposed to be



Free the world from slavery

though the traditional slavery is gone,slavery is still very much with the world.do you know there are kids in india who put in 15hour shifts a day to earn as little as two dollars?the world would want you to believe all is fine and the only wrong is global warming and nuclear catastrophe.BUT WHAT ABOUT THE CATASTROPHE OF SLAVERY AMONGST MAN, AND MORE SADDENING,AMONGST KIDS?



THE WORLD IS SUCH FUCKED THAT WE DONT MOVE TILL ITS OUR FAMILY.AND WHEN IT IS OUR FAMILY,WE WANT THE WORLD TO MOVE.WHY BE SUCH HYPOCRITES?REALIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF THE WORLD AND PEOPLE IN IT.THERE ARE 27MILLION SLAVES IN THE WORLD.THERE IS NO MIRACLE THAT WILL HELP THEM TO FREE THEMSELVES.WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING.DONT ASK ME WHY?ITS CALLED HUMANITY AND BEING HUMAN,YOU SHOULD KNOW THIS BY NOW.IF YOU ASK ME HOW,I CAN LET YOU KNOW.

CLICK AT THE LINK BELOW TO Free the Slaves Foundation:

Who We Are

Free the Slaves is a not for profit organization made up of people who don't want to live in a world with slavery. And they're willing to do something about it.

We don't waste time debating which kind of slavery is worse -- brick kilns or carpet looms, sex or domestic, new or old -- it's all horrible. Slavery is a dark slash across the heart of all humanity.

We believe there are no easy answers to eradicating slavery. But there are answers from the people who are enslaved and those helping them to freedom. There is no single path to liberation - the paths are many - we will tread them all before our job is done.

BE HUMANS.DO SOMETHING.DONATE.IF YOU CANT,PASS THE MESSAGE.AT LEAST DO SOMETHING

AND BE A HUMAN.

Paper Money

Look at the below image,look at the kids,look at them playing ,but try to look bit closer to notice what are they playing with.....

yeap,thats right, its a picture of kids in Germany during the 20's playing with stacks of money

Never knew that was possible,right? It is,and the cause for this is hyperinflation and thats exactly what caused the German bank notes to be so worthless that the paper it was printed on became more expensive than the money itself.


I myself dont know much about hyperinflation but the terms would generally means inflation at a hyper rate.Let me back it up a little bit for those who dont know what inflation means.


Inflation is just the level of change in the value of money, lets say,for example, an apple in 2010 would have cost 95cents and today a dollar.So,it goes to say that the level of increase in price is inflation.

To calculate:


(1.00-0.95/1.00) X 100% = 5%


Meaning, the inflation rate from last year to this is about 5%.

Now,we are talking about hyper-inflation, and hyper-inflation is a much more severe case of increase in price, from what I have read, generally, its at a rate of about 50% every month.So, if we take the apple earlier, the price of the apple could increase by 47.25cents every month, and by the end of the year, it could cost roughly about 11 dollars...and so on....if this goes on, smaller notes become too little to be bothered, and worthless....the banks would then start printing larger value of notes......untill you see a enermous value on a bank note,like the one below...

This is a picture of  a 100 million Hungarian Pengő note and was the highest denomination of banknote ever issued, worth 10²⁰ or 100 quintillion

And thus, the dubious honor of having the largest bank note ever printed and used by the public belongs to the Magyar Nemzeti Bank of Hungary.

If you dont know how much 100 quintillion is, start counting the zeros,its about 100 000 000 000 000 000 000.

This was at the peak of hyperinflation of Hungary, which went through the worst inflation ever recorded between the end of 1945 and July 1946.

Gotta pity those hungarians,i bet the hyper-inflation produced many hungry hungarians  ;)

I Wiki-pedia'd myself through uni...lol

Ahhh,talk about my sweet pal Wikipedia...he is the best buddy any lazy procrastinating student "who's in deep shit and needs to submit assignment in few hours "can find on the internet and together with my other buddies ,Copy and Paste,so often  they have left me smiling to myself...

On a more serious note, I personally believe Wikipedia is just a brilliant idea of knowledge sharing,try searchin anything on Google and chances are that a Wikipedia page would be one of of your first answers.The good thing about the site is that the manner information is presented,its made consise and there is a content review before it starts.Thats something I really do appreciate and I appreciate even more when Im trying hard to complete an assignment due the next day,(I hope my lecturers don't read this.lol).

Anyways, there are three other reasons I love it:

• Its free....yeap,im being Indian
• Its supported by a non-profit organisation, Wikimedia 
• Its written by volunteers

Infact, in honor of the superb job done by this people, in 2006 Time magazine decided to give their annual Time Person Of The Year award to all of You who have contributed to the articles on Wikipedia, together with those of Youtube/Myspace and Facebook.

this goes out to my form 5 chemistry teacher who said I'll be a failure in life,bitch.

So,in short,thanks Wiki for me going waikikikiiiiiiiiii jolly on my assignments.I am graduating this month,so I guess,this is it...the sad break up.Any other relationship's I will have with you will have to be referenced.And everybody knows,referencing just doesnt do it...Kudos man...

Six degrees of separation

They say theories are derived by geniuses and most of them are boring.Well,what if I say to you, that there is a theory that says that you are a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend of Barrack Obama?


What?! you and me...? blehh

or the Pope,the Queen, Osamma bin Laden or any other person for that matter of fact.
How u ask me?

Its something which is known as the Six Degrees of Separation.It refers to the theory that any two random people in this world are on average six steps away from each other, or easier said, you could be a six degree friend or less than that to any other random person in the planet.And yes,it includes the terrorists.it includes the Pakistanis,im not suggesting anything.It includes everybody in the planet.

It was originally thought of by this guy Frigyes Karinthy, who's brilliant idea even made it to become a play, which was so good that it was nominated for the Pulitzer Price and later a movie featuring a very young Will Smith,which was also so good that it helped actress Stockard Channing win the Oscar's in 1994.

The theory was even researched by Researchers at Microsoft, who studied records of 30 billion electronic conversations among 180 million people in various countries.They figured out that any two strangers are, on average, distanced by precisely 6.6 degrees of separation. In other words, putting fractions to one side, you are linked by a string of seven or fewer acquaintances to Madonna, the Dalai Lama and the Queen.

I beg your pardon,is this even possible?

Well Your Majesty it is, they even found a way through your facebook account, a few years back, some dude by the name of Karl Bunyan came up with a facebook platform application named "Six Degrees", which calculated the degrees of separation between different people. Using about 5.8 million user accounts,the average separation for all users of the application was found to be 5.73 degrees.So, if the Queen is really on fb, she just got owned.haha.

and guess what, its so awesome that there is a trivia game based on this concept that links any actor in Hollywood to Kevin Bacon through six degrees or less ( a degree is calculated from any movie where the actor has played a role with or alongside Kevin Bacon).Thus,creathing the game named.....yeap,u guessed it..........Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon!

So, the next time you feel useless, think again, at least you know somebody famous like Slash or Santana through 6 people,isn't that alone good enough to make yourself feel good......?!!

The Vitruvian Man

Ever seen the picture below?
 

The Vitruvian Man


This is a world renowned drawing created by the great Leonardo Da Vinci, it is called the Vitruvian Man, as its based on the notes of body proportions created by the famous architect named Vitruvius.
Drawn in 1847 by Da Vinci using pen and ink with washover metal point on a 34.4cm long paper which has 25.5 cm width.

Whats interesting about this man?
-The interesting thing about it is that it shows that our human body is made in proportions.Or in simpler terms, says that the parts in our body were made in relations to one another.

For example:
1)The size of your foot = Length of forearm (from elbow to where your palm starts)
This really helps especialy if you're buying a shoe,place the shoe on your forearm to know whether its the right size for you....awesome rite?


2) The size of foot x 6 = Your height
   Isn't much easier to know your height this way?

3)Or even better, open your ams wide.......done?......and now thats how tall you are :)

4) Wanna know how long your nose is?.........Try giving a thumbs up.....yup,it is as long as your thumb..

There are plenty more proportions including the Golden Ratio, which is also known as Phi,but lets leave that for another day.

The Vitruvian Man is really a piece of extraordinary art by Da Vinci but credit goes to the man behind the idea of body proportions by the ancient Roman architect Vitruvius in his book (Book III of his treatise De Architectura.)

The symbol of Vitruvian is world famous and is even on the italian 1 Euro coins.

Italian 1 Euro coin

To Da Vinci and Vitruvius, seriously man....... hats off!
