What the hell that's just gross !!

2008-01-28T16:41:00.000+05:00

Last Thursday during the break at school I was wandering around the school compound with some of my friend.As we go to school in the morning we were very sleepy and hungry so we decided to buy some short eats from the Canteen.One of my friends went and bought some short eats.I personally don't like the food at the canteen but some of my friends like it.Well they liked it till last Thursday.A friend of mine was eating a masroshi when he got something stuck between two of his teeth.At first he thought it was a piece of bone from the fish.He tried to remove it.After sometime he was finally able to remove it.We were surprised by what we saw in his hand.It was not a piece of bone but a piece of broken fingernail.I was so grossed out that I threw the gulha I was eating onto the ground.My friends did the same two.So we decided that we will never buy any thing from the canteen in the future.

So my advice to you is never eat any thing from a public canteen.

Do not say that I didn't warn you

Criminal minds

2007-08-02T20:23:00.000+05:00

CRIMINAL MINDS revolves around an elite team of FBI profilers who analyze the country's most twisted criminal minds, anticipating their next moves before they strike again. Special Agent Jason Gideon (Mandy Patinkin) is the FBI's top behavioral analyst, working with the Behavioral Analysis Unit lead by Special Agent Aaron Hotchner (Thomas Gibson), a family man who is able to gain people's trust and unlock their secrets. Also on the team are Emily Prentiss (Paget Brewster), the daughter of high-powered diplomats who recently joined the team and must prove her worth to Gideon and Hotchner; Special Agent Derek Morgan (Shemar Moore), an expert on obsessional crimes; Special Agent Dr. Spencer Reid (Matthew Gray Gubler), a classically misunderstood genius whose social IQ is as low as his intellectual IQ is high; Jennifer "JJ" Jareau (AJ Cook), a confident young agent who acts as the unit liaison for the team, and Penelope Garcia (Kirsten Vangsness), a computer wizard who helps research the cases. Each member brings his or her own area of expertise to the table as they pinpoint predators' motivations and identify their emotional triggers in the attempt to stop them.

When morning breaks
We hide our eyes and our love's aching
Nothing's strange

It was in our hands from 6 to 10
It slipped right out again

There'll be no better time
There'll be no better way
There'll be no better day to save me
Save me
Yeah, save me

I hope you see like I see
I hope you see what I see
I hope you feel like I feel

And the world don't stop
There is no time for cracking up
Believe me friend
Cause when freedom comes
I'll be long gone
You know it has to end

There'll be no better time
There'll be no better way
There'll be no better day to save me
Save me
Yeah, save me
Yeah, save me
I hope you see what I see
I hope you feel like I feel
Someone to stand beside me
Beside me
Beside me
Beside me
Beside me

Oceans thirteen

2007-06-01T20:14:00.001+05:00

What are the odds of getting even? Danny Ocean and the gang would have only one reason to pull off their most ambitious and riskiest casino heist--to defend one of their own. But they’re going to need more than luck on their side to break The Bank.Ruthless casino owner Willy Bank never imagined that the odds were against him when he double-crossed Danny Ocean’s friend and mentor Reuben Tishkoff, putting the distraught Reuben in a hospital bed in critical condition. But Bank miscalculated--badly. He may have taken down one of the original Ocean’s eleven, but he left the others standing and, worse for him, gave them a shared purpose: to take Bank down on the night of what should be his greatest triumph--the grand opening of his new casino, appropriately named The Bank. Their strategy is twofold. First they will ruin him financially by turning the tables on the precept that the house always wins. But that’s just money. The knockout punch will be to Bank’s personal pride and joy: his reputation as the only hotelier who has earned the Royal Review Board’s Five Diamond Award on every single one of his hotels. The plan is elaborate, dangerous and damn near impossible--but there are no limits when it comes to one of their own.

Bones

2007-05-01T20:14:00.000+05:00

From executive producers Barry Josephson and Hart Hanson comes the darkly amusing drama Bones, inspired by real-life forensic anthropologist and novelist Kathy Reichs. Forensic anthropologist Dr. Temperence Brennan, who works at the Jeffersonian Institution and writes novels as a sideline, has an uncanny ability to read clues left behind in a victim's bones. Consequently, law enforcement calls her in to assist with murder investigations when the remains are so badly decomposed, burned, or destroyed that the standard identification methods are useless. Brennan's equally brilliant colleagues at the Jeffersonian's Medico-Legal Lab include earthy and bawdy Angela Montenegro, who's created a unique way to render an original crime scene in a three-dimensional computer image; Brennan's assistant, Zack Addy, a young prodigy whose genius IQ actually gets in the way of his finishing the several doctorates he's begun; "the bug guy", Dr. Jack Hodgins, who's an expert on insects, spores and minerals, but conspiracy is his hobby; and Brennan's boss, imposing lab director Dr. Daniel Goodman. Brennan often finds herself teamed with Special Agent Seely Booth, a former Army sniper who mistrusts science and scientists when it comes to solving crimes. Brennan and Booth clash both professionally and personally, but so far the chemistry between them has only played out in a fictionalized account in Brennan's lastest mystery novel.

Veronica mars

2007-04-24T20:12:00.001+05:00

In the wealthy, seaside community of Neptune, California, Hearst College stands as a beacon of higher education, but within this idyllic and sun-drenched campus, higher education is not always what it appears. In between the beer-soaked dorm parties and all-night cram sessions, the student body is facing a terrifying threat. Luckily for them, incoming freshman and part-time private investigator Veronica Mars (Kristen Bell) is used to taking on a few extra-curricular activities.

Hoping to leave the ghosts of Neptune High behind her, Veronica, along with boyfriend Logan Echolls (Jason Dohring) and best friends Wallace Fennel (Percy Daggs III) and Mac (Tina Majorino), are now freshmen at Hearst College. But with each determined to soak up the college experience in their own way, it quickly becomes obvious that some ghosts are here to stay. Even their high school graduation was marred when Veronica’s unlikely ally Eli "Weevil" Navarro (Francis Capra) was arrested and dragged out of the ceremony in handcuffs.

Add to that the increasingly dangerous private investigator business run by Veronica’s father Keith (Enrico Colantoni), and her spreading reputation around campus as a girl who can fix the unfixable, it doesn’t take long to realize the Hearst College has never faced a student like Veronica Mars.

Building on its trademark twists and turns, with a new campus, new faces and new surprises, the third season of "Veronica Mars" promises to keep both old and new fans guessing alike.

All About Naruto - The Series

2007-04-13T20:06:00.000+05:00

Naruto is an anime and manga series created by Masashi Kishimoto centered around a loud, hyperactive, young ninja who is in a constant search for both approval and recognition, and with a great aspiration to become Hokage. First published as a manga series in Japan by Shueisha in the 43rd issue of Shonen Jump magazine in November 1999, the Naruto series has risen in popularity exponentially and has since been licensed in the USA (becoming VIZ Media's top selling title) and nearly two dozen other countries, with the anime series currently airing in 18 countries.

Although the anime series debuted on TV in Japan on October 3rd, 2002 nearly three years after the manga series first appeared it has quickly caught up, as each episode can cover up to two chapters. To prevent the series from being pulled off of the air and cancelled completely with no official story to base it upon, as had been the fate (and death) of other anime such as Rurouni Kenshin, the decision was made to produce original content for the anime series to allow the manga time to get far ahead and keep Naruto fresh in the minds of its many fans. Starting with episode 136 there has been over a years worth of filler episodes which tend to cover the supporting characters of Naruto who may not otherwise be seen often. New episodes of Naruto air every Wednesday night during the Golden Time slot at 7:27PM, and movies based upon the Naruto anime series have been released every Summer since 2004.

Naruto made his first English debut on September 10th, 2005 in an hour long premiere on the US cable channel Cartoon Network during the Toonami timeslot at 9PM, followed by an hour long encore (repeat of the first two episodes shown previously) at 10PM. Currently a new episode of Naruto is shown every Saturday at 9PM with an encore presentation at 2AM, along with reruns airing at 10PM Monday - Thursday. It had been announced previous to the premiere that Naruto would hit Canada (a less editted version than the American) before airing in the USA, on the 9th of September, however, due to licensing agreements the premiere was forced back until the 16th on the Canadian YTV. In the United Kingdom a much more heavily editted version of Naruto airs at 8PM on Jetix.

Scrubs

2007-04-10T20:03:00.000+05:00

This half-hour comedy focuses on the bizarre experiences of fresh-faced medical intern John "J.D." Dorian (Zach Braff) as he embarks on his healing career in a surreal hospital crammed full of unpredictable staffers and patients – where humor and tragedy can merge paths at any time.

Joining the rumpled J.D. in his exhilarating brave new world are his college buddy, Chris Turk (Donald Faison, "Clueless"), an intern with a more elite surgical group, and J.D.'s fellow medical intern, the beautiful and driven Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke, "Roseanne"). Keeping the new interns on their toes are: The fatherly chief of medicine, Dr. Bob Kelso (Ken Jenkins); the abrasive, worldly Dr. Perry Cox (John McGinley), and the caring but slightly jaded nurse Carla Espinosa (Judy Reyes). The hospital janitor (Neil Flynn) also never seems to miss an opportunity to harass his target.

Scrubs is filmed in a real-life hospital. It's the North Hollywood Medical Center, which has gone under severe reconstruction to fit all the equipment and represent Sacred Heart Hospital. Interesting trivia: Sacred Heart was the name of the school that Christa Miller worked; in one episode Zach Braff accidentally calls the Janitor Neil Flynn, which is the actor's real life name.

10 Ways to Annoy a Telemarketer

2007-04-04T18:10:00.000+05:00

10. When they ask “How are you today?” Tell them! “I’m so glad you asked
because no one these days seems to care, and I have all these problems; my
arthritis is acting up, my eyelashes are sore, my dog just died…”

9. If they say they’re John Doe from XYZ Company, ask them to spell their name.
Then ask them to spell the company name. Then ask them where it is located.
Continue asking them personal questions or questions about their company for as
long as necessary.

8. Cry out in surprise, “Judy! Is that you? Oh my God! Judy,
how have you been?” Hopefully, this will give Judy a few brief moments of
pause as she tries to figure out where she could know you from.

7. If MCI calls trying to get you to sign up for the Family and Friends Plan,
reply, in as SINISTER a voice as you can, “I don’t have any friends … would
you be my friend?”

6. If they want to loan you money, tell them you just filed for bankruptcy and
you could sure use some money.

5. Tell the telemarketer you are on “home incarceration” and ask if they could
bring you a case of beer and some chips

4. After the telemarketer gives their spiel, ask him/her to marry you. When
they get all flustered, tell them that you could not just give your credit
card number to a complete stranger.

3. Tell the telemarketer you are busy at the moment and ask them if they will
give you their HOME phone number so you can call them back. When the
telemarketer explains that they cannot give out their HOME number, you say “I
guess you don’t want anyone bothering you at home, right?” The telemarketer
will agree and you say, “Now you know how I feel!” Say good by - and Hang up.

2. Insist that the caller is really your buddy Leon, playing a joke. “Come on
Leon, cut it out! Seriously, Leon, how’s your mom?”

And first and foremost:

1. Tell them to talk VERY SLOWLY, because you want to write EVERY WORD down.

6)Become your own twin brother and tell your roommate that you and your brother never appear in the same place at once. Tell your roommate the same thing again after leaving and coming back into the room.
7)Begin to accumulate a used gum ball. Weigh it every day. Accuse your roommate of stealing gum.
8)Borrow your roommate's clothes. Offer to wash them, then act like they were yours all along.

Scooby-Doo artist Iwao Takamoto dies

2007-01-10T19:00:00.000+05:00

Japanese-American animator who designed Flintsones characters and Scooby-Doo was 81.

Iwao Takamoto, the Japanese-American animator who created the looks of famed cartoon dog Scooby-Doo, died Monday in a Los Angeles hospital. The 81 year old was at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for a medical checkup when he suffered a massive coronary.

Takamoto was born in Los Angeles in 1925 and was sent to an internment camp during WWII. There, he learned how to draw from his fellow Japanese campmates. Upon his release, he became an apprentice illustrator at Disney. There, he assisted the productions of Cinderella and Peter Pan.

In 1961, Takamoto jumped to a new animation studio formed by ex-MGM animators Joseph Hanna and William Barbera. At Hanna-Barbera, Takamoto designed the entire cast of characters of the long-running animated series Scooby-Doo: Scooby, his hippie master Shaggy, and the Mystery Machine gang Velma, Daphne, and Fred. He also helped create the design for Josie and the Pussycats, The Great Grape Ape Show, Harlem Globe Trotters, and The Secret Squirrel Show.

Takamoto said he drew inspiration from the last line of the Frank Sinatra song "Strangers in the Night" for Scooby's name and came upon the dog's distinctive look by taking the typical Great Dane physique and turning it on its ear.
"I decided to go the opposite and gave him a hump back, bowed legs, big chin, and such," Takamoto said last year. "Even his color is wrong."

In addition to Scooby, Takamoto designed the characters Muttley the dog and Astro the pet on the Jetsons. The Flintstones' nemesis The Great Gazoo was also a Takamoto creation. He also directed the 1973 animated film Charlotte's Web.

Takamoto was a vice president at Warner Bros. Animation and had recently storyboarded a Tom and Jerry cartoon. He had also been involved in creating the characters for the new animated series Krypto the Superdog.

Hanna-Barbera co-founder Joseph Barbera died three weeks ago, on December 17, at the age of 95.

Ten Ways To Annoy Your Roommate

2006-12-10T18:56:00.000+05:00

1)Administer last rites as she/he sleeps.
2)Adopt an iguana. Collect the skin peelings. Give them to your roommate as a peace offering from Peter (the iguana).
3)Always flush the toilet three times.
4)Announce everything you do as a group activity. (i.e. "We're going to bed now.") If your roommate fails to do whatever you said, accuse him/her of not being a "team player."
5)Announce on the answering machine that your roommate has moved out. Tell anyone who calls for him/her not to call here anymore.
6)Arrange thirteen toothbrushes of different colors on your dresser. Set one aside from the rest. Laugh hysterically at the one toothbrush. When your roommate asks about it, refuse to discuss the situation.

7)Arrange your pillows and blankets every night to make it look like you are asleep. Do this for three weeks. Buy a cantaloupe and a knife. Stick the knife in the cantaloupe. Lay it on the pillow where your head should be.
8)As soon as your roommate turns the light off at night, begin singing famous operas as loud as you can. When your roommate turns on the light, look around and pretend to be confused.
9)Ask your roommate if Bob, your invisible friend, can stay the night. If s/he agrees, ask your roommate if s/he can turn down the music. Explain that Bob has a headache.
10)Ask your roommate if your family can move in "just for a couple of weeks."

Beware of these new Computer Viruses

2006-12-09T18:48:00.000+05:00

ADAM AND EVE VIRUS - Takes a couple of bytes out of your Apple.

AIRBAG VIRUS - Can only cause harm if you are a petite computer operator who sits too close to the screen. Provides a handy ON-OFF switch in most current release.

AIRLINE LUGGAGE VIRUS - You're in Dallas, but your data is in Singapore.

Al Gore Virus - Claims that it is the Internet. Causes your computer to just keep counting and re-counting.

Pokemon Virus - Sucks up all your money and only renders 3rd rate animation.

POLITICALLY CORRECT VIRUS v 1.0 - Never calls itself a "virus," but instead refers to itself as an "electronic microorganism."

POLITICALLY CORRECT VIRUS v 2.0 - Rephrases the "Abort, Retry, Fail" prompt as "Choice, Retry, Success-Impaired".

Ponzi Virus - It logs onto your bank's computer and transfers $1 into the accounts of the owners of the last 10 computers it was on. It then attaches itself to the next 10 items of mail you send.

POPE JOHN PAUL VIRUS - Deletes all your dirty files and blesses the rest.

Pornography Virus - Consumes all available hard drive space, but leaves the computer's owner with a warm sense of contented well-being.

PRO-CHOICE VIRUS - Although it presents the standard "Abort, Retry, Fail" prompt, it pressures you to choose "Abort", telling you the process being terminated is just "a blob of bits" which has no value.

RODNEY DANGERFIELD VIRUS - Gets no respect. Only allows data do be displayed as one-liners.

David Duke Virus - Makes your screen go completely white.

RUSH LIMBAUGH VIRUS v 1.0 - Probably the most dangerous virus we've ever seen. It occupies 50Mb, complains about all the other files, than eats them. It's so stupid you don't take it seriously until it's too late.

RUSH LIMBOUGH VIRUS v 2.0 - This virus produces an amplified, continuous, babbling sound in Dolby Stereo as it grows to fill all available space on your hard disk. Fortunately, its virulence is low as it has difficulty finding willing code fragments that will support its replication.

SADDAM HUSSEIN VIRUS v 1.0 - This virus, first developed in the software labs of Western democracies, attacks its closest neighbors first and then fragments to hide it's most virulent components in the hidden folders of your disk drive. As a defense mechanism, it claims that commercial virus detection software insults its national dignity.

Saddam Hussein Virus v 2.0 - Won't let you into any of your programs.

Saddam Hussein virus v 3.0 - spawned other viruses and was believed to create Programs of Mass Destruction (PMD). Some of the spawned viruses are still in existence but are gradually being eradicated by the George W. Bush virus. PMDs spawned by the Saddam Hussein virus, if they exist, have yet to be found because they have the "hidden" attribute set. The Saddam Hussein virus wasn't seen for a long time because of the rapid spread of the George Bush virus. At the end of 2003, the George Bush virus found every instance of the Saddam Hussein virus, which was discovered to have mutated into a harmless, ugly graphic hiding in the Trash/Recycle Bin.

Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here Lyrics
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from hell,
blue skies from pain
can you tell a green field,
from a cold steel rail,
a smile from a veil
do you think you can tell,
did they get your to trade,
your heroes for ghosts,
hot ashes for trees,
hot air for a cool breeze,
cold comfort for change
did you exchange,
a walk on part in the war
for a lead role in a cage.

How i wish, how i wish you were here
we're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year
running over the same old ground, have we found, the same old fears,
Wish You Were Here

Prison Break

2006-12-03T16:35:00.000+05:00

Finally the long wait is over and the second season of “Prison Break” is premiering tonight on Fox, even loyal viewers might be forgiven for thinking they’ve tuned into the wrong show. The great escape finally happened at the end of the first season, and while it’s exactly what fans wanted and were starting to grow a little impatient for, the result is a bit disconcerting.
There are no more blue jumpsuits, no more cells. There’s hardly a prison any longer.
“Prison Break’s” new season promises to be a complete reinvention, as the gang now known as the Fox River Eight goes on the lam.
For those who’ve been locked in solitary confinement since the show’s fall 2005 premiere, the escape plot began when Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller) staged an armed bank robbery to land himself inside the Fox River Penitentiary. His plan: to bust out his brother, Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell), who was framed for the murder of the vice-president’s brother, Terrence Steadman.
The conspiracy aimed to get Burrows’ father out of hiding, where he retreated after divulging classified information. Scofield, a structural engineer, designed the prison and in a display of ink that makes Tommy Lee’s flesh look squeaky clean, had the blueprints famously tattooed onto his body. Scofield and Burrows picked up company as other inmates caught on to the plan or could offer money and special access.
The brothers are headed down Mexico way, but will swing by Utah to find the $5 million that old-timer Charles Westmoreland (a.k.a. D.B. Cooper) claims is buried under a silo. The rest of the gang should split off quickly, but with that kind of cash hanging over these kinds of guys, they’re sure to cross paths again.
The season two changes come quickly. Audiences immediately are introduced to FBI agent Alexander Mahone, played by William Fichtner. Although the actor never did get to the bottom of that glowing light in the water on ABC’s canceled “Invasion,” he could be smart and crafty enough to track down Scofield and friends.
Vice-president turned president Caroline Reynolds won’t be seen for a while, but is not completely out of the picture. Actress Patricia Wettig is now on ABC’s “Brothers and Sisters,” but producers say her character’s presence will continue to be felt and still may appear later in the season. Actor John Billingsley, featured only briefly as the not-murdered-after-all Terrence Steadman, has found a new home on ABC’s drama, “The Nine.” Steadman is now played by Jeff Perry, who most recently appeared as Thatcher Grey, Meredith’s father on ABC’s “Grey’s Anatomy.”
Who will stay free?
“Prison Break” may be focusing on the “break” instead of the “prison” in its second season, but there should be enough complex plotting and close-ups of Miller’s squinty, steely eyes to keep viewers coming back. But will the escapees themselves be coming back to Fox River? Some of them certainly have a better shot at staying free than others.
Michael Scofield
Where he’s been: Staged an armed bank robbery to get in to the prison where his brother, Lincoln Burrows, sat on death row. Scofield is an engineer who designed the place and dons the most famous tattoo on TV, which holds the blueprint to the big house.
Where he’s going: To Utah, en route to Mexico. Scofield is chasing a $5 million stash of cash before taking his brother south.
Odds he’ll make it: He’ll stumble along the way, but he won’t be going back to Fox River.
Lincoln Burrows
Where he’s been: Convicted for a murder he didn’t commit, he was believed to have killed the vice president’s brother, Terrence Steadman. He was set up as part of a huge conspiracy intended to uncover Burrows’ father, who had leaked some classified information.
Where he’s going: To Utah, en route to Mexico, but various scores that need to be settled could throw him and Scofield off course.
Odds he’ll make it: The most recognizable and most wanted face of the bunch, he’ll benefit from his brother’s smarts.
Theodore “T-Bag” Bagwell
Where he’s been: All-around bad guy, serving life sentence for kidnapping, rape and murder.
Where he’s going: Presumably will try to track down a girlfriend, the woman who called him into the cops after seeing him on “America’s Most Wanted” in a brilliant display of FOX cross-promotion.
Odds he’ll make it: If he doesn’t bleed to death from the stump that once held his recently axed left hand in place, the career criminal will soon land back home in prison.
John Abruzzi
Where he’s been: One-time mob boss who’s lost some clout while in prison, serving a life sentence for murder and conspiracy to commit murder.
Where he’s going: Wants desperately to find Otto Fibonacci, the man who went into witness protection after his testimony put Abruzzi behind bars.
Odds he’ll make it: Still has enough clout and protection to stay in the clear for a while.
Francisco Sucre
Where he’s been: Proud Puerto Rican who was only sentenced to five years for robbery, but busted out to be with his pregnant girlfriend.
Where he’s going: To New York to find his woman.
Odds he’ll make it: Not the sharpest knife in the drawer, he’ll soon find himself serving an extra 10 years, minimum.
Benjamin Miles Franklin
Where he’s been: Dishonorably discharged as a U.S. Army sergeant in Iraq after reporting illegal torture. Began delivering stolen goods in Chicago and got caught. Told his family he was sent back to Iraq, but is really serving his sentence.
Where he’s going: Wants badly to start a new life with his family, possibly in Mexico.
Odds he’ll make it: His desire to reconnect with his wife and kids could lead him right into the arms of the law.
David “Tweener” Apolskis
Where he’s been: Pickpocket and Vanilla Ice look-alike, was serving five years for grand larceny. Snitched on the escape plan before joining it.
Where he’s going: Last seen jumping into a horse trailer en route to St. Louis, but this greedy little guy will likely chase the cash in Utah.
Odds he’ll make it: Too young and dumb to last long on the lam.
Charles “Haywire” Patoshik
Where he’s been: Psych ward inmate sentenced to 60 years for second-degree murder for killing his parents. Got in on the escape when he figured out what was happening. Was ditched by the group in the first-season finale.
Where he’s going: Who knows? He stole a little girl’s bike and just started pedaling.
Odds he’ll make it: Not good. Without medication, and wearing a red football helmet on a girl’s bike, he’s likely to stand out in a crowd.
