Brain Cramps

*Question: If you could live forever, would you and why?

New Aliens in Atlantic

It looks like the evil twin brother of the Alien from the 1979 sci-fi classic film, but this creature has just been discovered in a remote stretch of the Atlantic.
The Chauliodus Sloani was found, along with a never-before-seen shrimp, by a British research team during a five-week expedition.

Treasure in Italy

One of Italy's first and most mysterious civilizations, the Etruscans (Etrurians) lived north of Rome in regions of Tuscany and Umbria. Their civilization lasted for about 1,000 years, reaching its height roughly from the 7th to the 6th century B.C., before its cities were replaced by Roman settlements.
Archaeologists have just discovered a more than 2,000-year-old Etruscan tomb perfectly preserved in the hills of Tuscany with a treasured artifacts inside, including urns that hold the remains of about 30 people. The tomb probably dates from between the 1st and 3rd centuries B.C., when Etruscan power was in decline. The main burial room was completely intact. Inside the tomb, a narrow corridor led to a small burial chamber. It housed about 80 objects including vases and mirrors in bronze and ceramic.

Cigarete ipak koriste zdravlju (!)

Kinezi su poceli da obradjuju "lazne" cigarete (loseg kvaliteta pretrpane komadicima drveta) za ekstrakciju solanesola, sastojka duvana, koji se koristi za tretman kardio-vaskularnih bolesti. Ranije su se te cigarete palile do unistenja, sto je uzrokovalo zagadjenje zraka... Kilogram solanesola vrijedi oko $200 (30 tona lista duvana proizvede 120 kg).

LEGENDE BH & EX-YU SPORTA, Part 16.

Za popularisanje teniskog sporta kod nas sigurno je zasluzan Slobodan Zivojinovic, koji je najveci uspjeh zabiljezio kad je dogurao do polufinala Wimbledona gdje je izgubio protiv Ivana Lendla, a u parovima je sa Andres Gomezom uspio osvojiti i US Open. Bruno Oresar i Monika Seles bili su jedini Yugo teniseri koji su osvojili Orange Bowl iliti nezvanicno prvenstvo svijeta u tenisu. Monika je, naravno, jedno vrijeme bila i prva na ATP listi, jedino nikada ne osvojivsi Wimbledone. Moze tome da se zahvali opsesivnom obozavaocu Steffi Graf koji ju je napao nozem u Hamburgu. Goran Ivanisevic je dogurao do drugog mjesta na ATP listi.

Danas teniseri Hrvatske i Srbije, kao sto su Mario Ancic, Novak Djokovic, Ana Ivanovic i Jelena Jankovic imaju respekt svjetske teniske poljane i cini se da je buducnost svijetla za ovaj sport sa balkanske tacke gledista...

FASCINATING PEOPLE, Part 16.

Ernest Holmes (1887-1960) founded Religious Science, part of the New Thought movement. Holmes had an immense influence on New Age beliefs, particularly his core philosophy that we create our own reality. He quit school at 15 saying: I didn't want to be taken care of, so l went to work. What I have gathered has been from reading, studying and thinking, working, experiencing. It is a long, laborious, tough method, but it pays off. I don't believe there is a real other method.
Excerpts from his work (The Science of Mind, Creative Mind and Creative Mind and Success):
*Strange as it may seem, the human thought can affirm only; it can never deny; for, even at the moment of denial, it really affirms the presence of that which it denies. We speak of denials and affirmations as though they were opposed to each other, but such is not the case. Fear and faith are but different ways of expressing positive beliefs about something. Fear is a positive belief that we will experience something that we do not wish to have happen, while faith is a positive belief that we will experience something that we do wish to have happen.
*What is evil?
Evil is the result of a lack of clear seeing, based upon a belief in two powers, and limitation and what we call sin is the result of man's struggle to find himself.
*The person who is to succeed will never let his mind dwell on past mistakes. He will forgive the past in his life and in the lives of other people. If he makes a mistake he will at once forgive it. He will know that so long as he desires any good, there is nowhere in the universe anything that opposes him. God does not damn anyone or anything; man damns everyone and everything.
*See only what you wish to experience, and look at nothing else. No matter how many times the old thought returns, destroy it by knowing that it has no power over you; look it squarely in the face and tell it to go; it does not belong to you, and you must know--and stick to it--that you are now free.

Oops (I did it again)

Kanadski teniski savez uputio je Novaku Đokoviću službeno izvinjenje zbog gafa na proglašenju pobjednika Rogers Cupa u Montrealu. Nakon što je u finalu pobijedio Rogera Federera, Đokovića je na svečanosti proglašenja pobjednika službeni spiker predstavio kao hrvatskog tenisera (!) No, vrlo brzo “Tennis Canade” se izvinio navodeci da je do greške došlo slučajno (hmm!) Đokoviću se licno izvinio i dotični službeni spiker... -Priznajem grešku i biće mi drago ispraviti je sljedeće godine, kada Novak osvoji svoj drugi trofej na Rogers Cupu.

Nekoga potjeraju psi, a druge...

Izgubljen u divljini Queenslanda 53-godisnji australski stocar, povrijedjen u padu sa konja, u bijegu pred krokodilima popeo se na stablo eukaliptusa. Ondje je međutim morao ostati nedjelju dana dok ga nisu pronašli spasioci, jer su gladni krokodili gotovo neprekidno vrebali na svoju potencijalnu žrtvu. Samo u nekoliko navrata preko dana uspio se nakratko spustiti sa stabla kako bi uzeo vodu iz obližnje lokve. "Noću sam vidio samo parove svijetlih crvenih očiju direkno ispod mene", izjavio je. Spasio ga je pilot helikoptera koji ga je opazio na stablu. U nedjelji dana pojeo je samo dva sendviča koji su mu se našli u džepu.

Zulfikar - Zuko Dzumhur

*Kasaba na granici: U svakom stotom ćepenku pod uvjerenjima i esnafskim pismima, uz tuce propisno poništenih taksenih maraka, pečalbari po jedan naš Tetovac, Gostivarac ili Bosanac, ubijajući godinama bijele dane za žute pare. Pečalbarski se štedi previše, živi premalo i razmnožava pretjerano.
*Putovanje po besmislu: Granice između civilizacije i varvarstva leže duboko zakopane u pijesku pustinje...

...Italijani bi na ovom svetom brijegu podigli crkvu, Amerikanci bazu, Francuzi hotel, a Libanci kockarnicu. Bugari bi ovdje sagradili veliki naučni institut za borbu protiv zagraničnog sujevjerja. Turci bi po običaju podigli karaulu, a Beograđani bi otvorili kafanu "Kod prvog greha". Arabljani nisu podigli ništa...

...Stare turske hanove po drumovima zamijenile su automobilske stanice na autostradama. Romantičnih drumskih razbojnika, koji su nekada napadali usamljene putnike i karavane, više nema. Zamijenile su ih velike međunarodne kompanije koje napadaju čitave narode. Hajdučija se polako sa carskih džada preselila u međunarodnu politiku...

...Čovjek nigdje tako intenzivno ne misli na neodjevenu ženu kao u pustinji.
*Zapisi pod gorom: Hotel je pun američkih nevjesta i đuvegija. Nedjelju provedu u maženju ili čitanju besmislenih romana. Njihove nevjeste su lijepe na neki naročiti način. U ljepoti američkih žena ima nečeg konfekcijskog. Svi ovi bogataši svijeta sve više liče jedni na druge. Svi oni pate od obilja istih poroka i od nedostatka istih vrlina. Izgleda da se među sirotinjom mnogo više održalo šarenilo svijeta.
*Trube u Jerohinu: Francuz je propjevao zbog žene, Italijan radi publike. Grk pjeva za bakšiš. Nijemac pjeva na komandu, a Srbin propjeva uz piće. Arapin je zapjevao od straha. Pustinja uplaši i junake i divove. Pustinje se jedino ne boje pjesnici...U pustinjama čovjek je propjevao da ne poludi. Možda se svaka poezija i svuda u svijetu rodila u pustinjama.

Lives In The Balance

Cristopher Polo

Marko Polo je možda otkrio Ameriku prije Kristofora Kolumba, prema karti iz Kongresne biblioteke u Washingtonu. Dokument, koji je u biblioteku 1933. donio američki državljanin italijanskog porijekla, "prikazuje brod pored karte na kojoj su prikazani dijelovi Indije, Kine, Japana i Sjeverne Amerike", prema opisu iz tog doba. Na dokumentu nazvanom "Karta s brodom" nalazi se grb - isprepletena slova imena Marko Polo. Moreuz koji razdvaja Sibir od Aljaske glavna je tema karte. Po svoj prilici Marco Polo, koji se u Veneciju sa svojih putovanja vratio 1295., u Europu donio prve informacije o postojanju Sjeverne Amerike, osim onih do kojih su došli nordijski osvajači. On je u Ameriku stigao dva vijeka prije Kolumba i iscrtao moreuz koji razdvaja Aziju od Amerike četiri vijeka prije njegove pojave na evropskim kartama. Marco Polo u opisima svojih putovanja nikada nije govorio ni o kakvom otkriću kopna na području Aljaske, a na samrti je svojim prijateljima kazao: "Nisam napisao ni polovinu onoga što sam vidio".

Kad "svinjo jedna" dobija drugo znacenje

Japanci su stvorili kloniranu svinju potomka tri generacije klonova. Prvi puta su naucnici uspjeli klonirati životinju te veličine u nekoliko uzastopnih generacija. Mislilo se da je kloniranje životinja kroz nekoliko generacija problematično jer se genetski materijal jezgre celije davatelja pogoršava sa svakom novom generacijom. Amerikanci su već uspjeli klonirati šest generacija miševa, ali japansko otkriće je važnije za ljude, jer je svinja bliža čovjeku od miša po svom genetskom sastavu. Cilj istraživanja je da se jednoga dana dodje do organa za transplantaciju i celija kloniranih svinja koji bi se koristili za liječenje nekih bolesti kod ljudi.

1001 ljepota zivljenja...

Više od 200 ljudi u čijem se vlasništvu našao alkohol ili droga tokom racije na rock koncertu satanske muzike uhapseno je protekle srijede u Iranu. Svake godine obave se racije obično ljeti, i tada država pokušava spriječiti nemoralno ponašanje, zabranjuje alkohol, narkotike i partyje na kojima se okupljaju muškarci i žene, tj. momci i djevojke, koji još nisu u braku. Zapadnjačka muzika je najomraženija pojava . Tokom klupske večeri kada su nastupali lokalni DJ-i i rock i rap bendovi policija je pohapsila uglavnom mlade i bogate ljude koji su se na ovoj zabavi okupili kako bi slušali provokativni sotonistički koncert.Pozivnice za zabavu bile su razaslane putem interneta, te su se među pozvanima nalazili Britanci i Šveđani. U raciji je pronađeno 150 boca alkoholnih pića, 800 opscenih CD-a i nekoliko različitih vrsta droge. Također, pronađene su i neprikladne haljine, koje su organizatori događaja poklanjali gošćama.Zaplijenjeno je oko 20 kamera.
Zene su obavezane nositi odjeću koja pokriva njihovu kosu i cijelo tijelo, inace mogu biti bičevane, zatvorene ili novčano kažnjene...

Fiona Apple

(T)ko bi to mogao biti?

Krenuo je sa Antonom Vrdoljakom - 'U gori raste zelen bor' (1971) igra manju ulogu da bi se kasnije proslavio ulogama u filmovima i TV serijama 'Kiklop', 'Mirisi, zlato i tamjan'. Glumio je lukavog prosjaka Matana u 'Prosjacima i sinovima' koji su 1971. zabranjeni. Iste godine zabranjena je i drama 'Crveno klasje' Živojina Pavlovića, sa kojim je jos saradjivao na 'Hajka' i 'Dezerter'. Potom slijede istorijski film 'Banović Strahinja' Vatroslava Mimice, krimić Zorana Tadića 'San o ruži' i 'Čovjek koji je volio sprovode', prvi jugoslavenski horor 'Variola Vera' Gorana Markovića. Početkom devedesetih, nakon antiratnih nastupa u Sarajevu i Beogradu odlazi za suprugom Lenkom u Ljubljanu, a zadnji predratni film u Zagrebu mu je 'Kontesa Dora' Zvonimira Berkovića. Glumi po pozoristima u Sloveniji, pa sa svojom predstavom gostuje i u Londonu gdje upoznaje Milča Mančevskog, koji mu nudi prelomnu ulogu makedonskog fotografa koji bježi od rata u Before the rain(1994). Film dobiva Zlatnog lava u Veneciji, a on i posebnu nagradu kritičara. Vrata Hollywooda otvara mu Oscar kojeg je film dobio kao najbolje strano ostvarenje. 1997. zajedno sa kćerkom Lucijom glumi u The Saint(1997.) Philipa Noycea, kod kojega će glumiti i u The Quiet American(2002), a uloga ruskog magnata jedna je od prvih uloga Rusa koje će kasnije često igrati. Najveći holivudski nastup mu je sporedna uloga u Kubrickovom Eyes Wide Shut(1999.). Upoznaje Toma Cruisea što će mu osigurati i honorar za nastup u Mission:Impossible II(2000). Ostali holivudski filmovi: Snatch(2000) Guya Ritchiea, Space Cowboys(2000) Clinta Eastwooda, remake The Fog(2005) i kratko pojavljivanje u Batman Begins(2005).

Mamma mia!

Majka je na Siciliji oduzela ključeve stana 61-godišnjem sinu, ukinula mu džeparac i odvela ga na policijsku stanicu jer je kasno došao kuci. Već umorna od sinovljevih nepodopština, umirovljenica iz grada Caltagirone na Siciliji obratila se za pomoć policiji kako bi doveli u red "tog glupana". Sin se opravdavao tvrdeći da majka ne zna kuhati i da mu nije dala dovoljan nedjeljni džeparac. "On me uopste ne poštuje, ne govori mi kuda ide ni kada će se vratiti kući", rekla je majka. "Nikad nije zadovoljan onim što skuham i naprestano se žali. Svega mi je dosta!", dodala je.
Veliki broj Italijana u tridesetim godinama živi u porodicnom domu i koristi blagodati mamine kuhinje, pranja i peglanja, ali slučajevi sinova koji ostaju s majkama u šezdesetim godinama ipak su rjeđi.

Zbogom Antonioni!

Italijanski avangardni reziser Michelangelo Antonioni pokopan je u četvrtak u svom rodnom gradu Ferrari na sjeveru Italije. Smatrali su ga majstorom i čarobnjakom svjetla. Preminuo je u 94. godini. Svjetsku slavu stekao je 60-tih godina filmovima kao što su "Blow Up" i "Zabriskie Point". Nakon moždanog udara 1985. godine, kretao se uz pomoć invalidskih kolica i teško je govorio. Vazni filmovi: L'Avventura, La Notte, Le Amiche, The Passenger, Beyond the Clouds

Kolicaj brze!

Posada ruske podmornice postavila je rusku zastavu na morsko dno Sjevernog pola. Zastava, izrađena od titana i otporna na rđu, postavljena je 4 261 metar ispod morske površine u Sjevernom polarnom moru. Rusija želi proširiti teritorij pod svojom kontrolom na Arktiku sve do Sjevernog pola. Vjeruje se da regija sadrži velike količine nafte i plina. Prema međunarodnom pravu, pet zemalja čiji teritorij dodiruje arktički polarni krug (Rusija, SAD, Kanada, Norveška i Danska) polažu pravo na eksploataciju ekonomske zone 320 kilometara od svojih obala. Međutim Rusija pokušava dokazati da ima pravo na eksploataciju područja sve do Pola. To argumentira činjenicom da je arktičko podmorje dio istog kontinentalnog grebena kao i Sibir. Jedan od ciljeva ekspedicije je i dopuštanje proučavanja morskog dna okeanografima kako bi utvrdili da je Arktičko morsko dno i Sibir zapravo dio istog grebena.
Sovjetske I američke nuklearne podmornice često su putovale ispod polarne kape, ali nijedna do sad nije došla do morskog dna ispod Pola, gdje dubine iznose i do 4 kilometra. Vođe ekspedicije kažu kako im je sad najveća briga da izrone kod iste rupe u ledu gdje su i uronili. Naime ta mala podmornica nije dovoljno jaka da razbije led na Sjevernom polu.
