Writing just as pretty with both hands is rarely possible, but 63-year-old Zhou Mingdi, from China€ ¢â' '¹s Hunan province can write just as good with different part of his body. The old calligraphy master is able to right just as beautifully whether he€ ¢â' '¹s holding his brushes in his hands, feet, mouth, nose, or even strapped on his back.
What€ ¢â' '¹s even more fascinating about Zhou Mingdi is that he€ ¢â' '¹s able to write with up to eight calligraphy brushes at the same time, and still get better results than the average man.here are some photos of him showcasing his art in front of a public audience, back in 2005.

An Epitaph for Mother Teresa -Dr. M.K.Sherwani
Posted by: "Sherwani Mustafa" sherwanimk@yahoo.com

August,27,2010
As the year long birth centenary celebrations of Mother Teresa begin, I am sending my old poem which was written at her death and published in many Indian newspapers
********************* ********* ********* ********* ***
€ ¦ An Epitaph for Mother Teresa
( A Poem written at the death of Mother Teresa)
********************* ********* *********
The€ ¦ Mother has vanished€ ¦ from our midst,
Leaving her sons€ ¦ gloomy and aghast;
With eyes to Heaven and€ ¦ hands in air,
They are crying, Mother ! Oh! Mother.
The Ocean may split€ ¦ its deepest depth,
The Earth may tear its bosom apart;
The like of you mother, will never come,
With so high a piety and noble deeds.
The dying will now feel again ,
The claws of death€ ¦ in callous form;
The hopeless will be made to see,
The glorious world from a distant past.
My plaintive heart now prays to God,
The Cherisher of all, The Guardian Lord;
To wrap your soul€ ¦ in a lasting bliss,
And let it visit your mourning sons.
May all the faces, bereft and sad,
Smile, rejoice and cheer again;
The poor may forsake dreary thoughts,
The ardent wish of mother of all.

Haj Pilgrimage in 1953

Haj Pilgrimage in 1953 - Rare Pictures
The pilgrimage is associated with the life of Muhammad, but the ritual of the Hajj itself was considered ancient even during his lifetime in the 7th century. Many Muslims believe that it goes back to the time of Abraham in 2000 BC. Pilgrims would join processions of tens of thousands of people, who would simultaneously converge on Mecca for the week of the Hajj, and perform a series of rituals. Each person would walk counter-clockwise seven times about the Kaaba, the cubical building towards which all Muslims pray, kiss the sacred Black Stone on its corner, run back and forth between the hills of Al-Safa and Al-Marwah, drink from the Zamzam Well, go to the plains of Mount Arafat to stand in vigil, then proceed to Muzdalifah to gather pebbles, which they would throw at a rock in Mina to perform the ritual of the Stoning of the Devil. The pilgrims would then shave their heads, perform an animal sacrifice, and celebrate the three day global festival of Eid
ul-Adha. via:wikipedia

Women & Their Power..
Posted by: "©Ever Smile J ©" aa_punnagai@yahoo.com aa_punnagai
Thu Aug 26, 2010 11:47 pm (PDT)
Many believe that women
and big politics are not compatible, but history shows that this is not true.€ ¦ We present you a brief overview of
the most important female figures in Policy 20 and 21 centuries from the online
version of the magazine TIME.
Indira Gandhi, India.
She was a true
daughter of the country, brought up and his people and his father, who
was the first Prime Minister of India after years of British rule. Cover
of TIME magazine soon after its election in January of 1966 reads: "The
poor of India in women's hands." These hand held India in the next
decades through many tests: an economic downturn, famine, India's first
test of an atomic bomb, civil war in neighboring Pakistan, and education
(with Indira), a new state - Bangaladesh.
Margaret Thatcher, United Kingdom.
Also known Iron Lady,
Margaret Thatcher was a woman of high principles, short patience and a
fan of whiskey. A housewife from the outskirts into one of the most
influential women in the world, and ruled the country from 1979 to 1990,
Thatcher became the first woman prime minister in Europe, and the first
British permerom, elected for three consecutive terms. During his 11
years in power it has increased the share of private capital and led to
the grave the Soviet Union. Thatcher is as for their personal qualities,
and for the achievements in the state field, the most popular British
politician after Winston Churchill.
Shirimavo Bandaranaike, Sri Lanka.
Fifty years ago
Shirimavo Bandaranaike became the first woman in the foreseeable
history - the head of government. Her victory is so overwhelmed by all
that no one knew how to correctly call. "We need to invent a new word" -
wrote the London Evening News the next day after Shirimavo elected
Prime Minister of Ceylon (then called Sri Lanka). "What's her name? -
Regent? "Bandaranaike led the party after the death of her husband, who
was slain by a Buddhist monk in 1959 after winning her party in 1960,
she took the reins in his hands and rules until 1965. After that she
became prime minister twice - from 1970 to 1977 and from 1994 to 2000.
Her daughter was the first-ever woman president in 1994, she appointed
her mother prime minister for the last time (it should be noted that
this appointment was rather a tribute of respect). Shirimavo resigned in
April 2000 and died in the same year.
Corazon Aquino, Philippines
After the death
of her charismatic husband, pious Catholic widow Corazon Aquino won the
people's love and overthrew the dictatorial regime, who was involved in
the murder of her husband. Millions of people took to the streets, and
in February 1986 Aquino became president. After crushing the attempts of
several military coups, Aquino saved democracy in the country -
something for which killed her husband. In 1986, Corazon Aquino, was
named "Man of the Year" by magazine TIME - the first woman after the
Queen Elizabeth 2, has suffered such an honor.
Benazir Bhutto, Pakistan.
Descendant of
an influential Pakistani dynasty, Benazir Bhutto went into politics
after his father, and died. Young and beautiful, she clearly stood out
from the male Pakistani political establishment. Benazir led the country
as prime minister from 1988 to 1990 and from 1993 to 1996, and both
times was dismissed from office by the President because of corruption
charges which she vehemently denied. Benazir was assassinated in 2007,
when the country was ruled by a military junta. The current President of
Pakistan is her husband, who was also accused of fraud.
Angela Merkel, Germany's Angela.
Merkel - an
exceptional phenomenon in German politics: the first female chancellor,
also grew up in communist East Germany, as well as the youngest
chancellor in history. Its underrated on the continuation of decades,
but it is not broken. "I myself have never underestimated himself" - she
said in an interview with TIME in January 2010 "There is nothing wrong
with ambition, and ambition." She took office in late 2005, and 100 days
after the poll showed that it is the most popular chancellor of all
German history.
Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf, Liberia
In April 2006, First Lady Laura Bush America responded to Ellen as "a
woman who did not stop working for the good of their country." "Her
courage and dedication inspires me and women around the world," said
Mrs. Bush magazine TIME. Johnson-Sirleaf, started her career with the
membership of the Council of Ministers in 1970, then in the 90's became a
senior administrator of the UN, and in 2006 was elected president of
Liberia - the first woman president in Africa. She had to sum up years
of civil war in the country. Allen vowed to fight corruption and build a
brighter future of the country. George W. Bush presented her with a
2007 Presidential Medal of Freedom. Laura Bush said: "Johnson-Sirleaf - a
good example of what can happen if the girls get a good education."
Golda Meir, Israel
Called acute languages "the only guy in the Cabinet" Golda Meir was a
formidable and odious figure in Israeli politics. Tall, lean, sharp and
decisive, it has become for the world's epitome of the Jewish
stubbornness. "There are a variety of women - she said once - that did
not allow husbands to overshadow much of the horizon". After a brilliant
political career, including as Minister of Labour and Minister of
Foreign Affairs and several other senior positions, she went to bed, but
had returned to politics in the age of 70 years and led the country as
prime minister from 1969 to 1974.

How to make a crocodile smile

How to make a crocodile smile: Swim in a pool full of deadly salties with just a perspex cage for protection
By Mail Online
Last updated at 2:39 PM on 26th August 2010
Tourists to this unusual theme park are sure to get some holiday snaps with a difference.Inspired
by the popularity of cage shark-diving, a tourist attraction has opened
that allows adrenalin junkies the chance to swim with killer crocodiles.And, as these incredible pictures show, participants can get up close and personal with one of the worlds deadliest creatures.
Definitely no running, ducking bombing or petting in this pool: Face to face with one of the 125 stone monsters
All that separates thrill-seekers
from the huge saltwater crocodiles is a five-inch thick perspex box
that has, we are assured, undergone 'extensive' safety testing.Fearless participants climb into the clear container - nicknamed the Cage of Death - which is
suspended on a monorail track that runs above four crocodile enclosures.
Two grated doors lock into position
on the top of the 10ft tall box which is then lowered into the water
and comes to rest 2ft beneath the surface.To
ensure that the paying customers get their money's worth, chunks of meat are tied to the bottom
of the cage. The crocodiles instantly drawn to it when it enters the
water.The results vary
from the crocs 'eye-balling' the swimmer, rubbing against the cage or
going into a full on 'aggressive attack' against it.
Snappy snaps: Holiday photos from this resort will be just a little different
Customers
pay about € ¦£100 to spend 20 minutes swimming alongside the crocs; the
largest of the beasts measures a whopping 18ft and weighs over 125
stone,€ ¦
One of the mighty reptiles at the Crocosaurus Cove park in
Darwin, Australia, is named Burt. Film buffs might remember him from the first Crocodile
Dundee movie - he's the one who nearly ate Linda Koslowski's character.Sallie
Gregory, spokeswoman for the park, said: 'Many people find the
opportunity of getting to within a few inches from the jaws of these
crocodiles exhilarating.''People
often get activity ranging from an aggressive attack to a casual
eye-balling and swim past where the crocs are so close that they rub
against the cage.''Most
of the women who take part say they are happy just to watch the
crocodiles while guys tend to want the action and attack.'€ ¦
Smile please: Two thrill-seeking tourists get
up close and personal with one of the saltwater crocodiles at the
Crocosaurus Cove park in Darwin, Australia
She added: 'One of our
directors who has extensive experience with crocodiles wanted a concept
that allowed people to get up close to these ultimate predators in a
safe environment.''The
cage runs on a overhead monorail system, suspended over the enclosures
and is lowered into up to four separate enclosures as part of the 20
minute experience.''The
perspex is about 135mm thick and extensive testing in both the
manufacturing and the way the crocodiles would react to the cage were
carried out prior to the testing team entering the cage.'
The 'Cage Of Death' has been extensively tested
for safety. With one of these prehistoric killers just inches away, one
might hope so..
'The top of the cage has two
grated doors to stop anything entering the cage and a back up motor and
separate chain operates to ensure that in the event of a malfunction,
the cage can continue to operate.''The
cage generally allows about two feet from the surface of the water
though this can be adjusted if people are not strong swimmers and would
prefer to keep their head above water.'€ ¦
Among
the crocodiles people can swim alongside are the mating pair of Houdini
and Bess as well as Chopper, Denzel and of course movie star Burt.But
one of the most popular crocs is Wendell€ ¦ - he's the biggest and is
named after muscular Australian rugby star Wendell Sailor.Crocodile
attacks in the wild are quite rare these days. However, during the
Japanese army's retreat from Ramree Island in February 1945, saltwater
crocodiles are thought to have been responsible for the deaths of 400
Japanese soldiers.
British
troops encircled the swampland through which the Japanese were
retreating, resigning the Japanese to a night in a mangrove swamp which
was home to thousands of saltwater crocodiles.
The Ramree crocodile attacks are listed as 'The Greatest Disaster Suffered from Animals' in The Guinness Book of RecordsSaltwater
crocodiles are the largest reptiles on the planet. Their main habitat
is northern Australia and New Guinea, Indonesia and Borneo. They have
been known to kill and eat horses, water buffalo, and even sharks as
well as the occasional human.

Oranutan Mother

A mother's love: The look that proves that maternal affection is
universal as Orang Utans are reunited after baby spends ten days in an
incubator
By Mail Online
Last updated at 3:20 PM on 26th August 2010
Orangutans have long been seen
as very close to humanity in terms of their intelligence. Even their
name is derived from the Malay for 'Man Of The Woods'.
Orangs
have been observed to use tools and medicinal plants and even have a
primitive sort of economy, assigning value to (mainly food) gifts and
items shared by other orangs and keeping a running total of the balance
owing over time.But there
has rarely been a more explicit reminder of the narrow gap between
ourselves and our jungle cousins than this superb and affecting picture
of look that a mother gave her child.
It was touch and go for little Hesty the baby
orang utan for a while. The look her mother gives her seems to reflect
that special tenderness that we feel for the loved ones we almost lost
Hesty the baby orangutan has
just made her public debut at Denver Zoo. She is the first Sumatran
Orangutan born at the Colorado zoo in 25 years.
She
was born on June 19 but less than two weeks later had to be taken from
her mother Nias and put in an incubator because she was dehydrated,
weak and unresponsive.
Orangutans not only use tools but even use leaves as a primitive 'musical instrument' to amplify their calls
She was bottle fed by animal
experts until she was able to feed herself. Now both Nias and Hesty can
be seen by visitors to the zoo.€ ¦
It
is estimated that there are only about 6,000 Sumatran orangutans left
in the wild. They can only be found on the island of Sumatra in
Indonesia.
It's wrong, of course, to assign too much human
emotion to animal behaviour but it's hard not to see a glint of
innocent mischief in Hesty's eye here as she plays hide and seek with
the camera

Subject: [Have-A-Heart] Why? Why? Why?
€ ¢Â
Why do we press harder on a remote control when we
know the batteries are almost dead?
Why? Why? Why?
Why do banks charge a fee on 'insufficient funds'
when they already know there is not enough money?
Why does someone believe you when you say there are
four billion stars;
but have to check when you say the paint is still wet?
€ ¢ã' '
Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?
Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest,
but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?
€ ¢ã' '
Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?
Whose idea was it to put an 'S' in the word 'lisp'?
If people evolved from apes,
Why are there still apes?
Why is it that no matter what color bubble bath
you use the bubbles are always white?
€ ¢ã' '
Is there ever a day that mattresses
Are not on sale?
Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with
€ ¢Â hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?
Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times
with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up,
examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?
€ ¢ã' '
Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try?
How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?
€ ¢ã' '
When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with
a shopping cart then apologizes for doing so, why do we say, 'It's all right?'
Well, it isn't all right, so why don't we say,
'That really hurt, why don't you watch where you're going?'
€ ¢ã' '
Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something
that's falling off the table you always manage
€ ¢Â to knock something else over?
In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm
as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?
How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?
And my FAVORITE......
The statistics on sanity is that one out of every four persons is
€ ¢Â suffering from some sort of mental illness.
Think of your three best friends -- if they're okay, then it's you.
