No Matches.... Bringing out Fire.
Things Required:
1)6 Volt battery
2)Flint
3)Magnesium
4)Magnifying Glasses
5)Very Fine Steel Wool
6)Tinder
7)A handgun with ammo
8)knife
Procedure:
------>Before you start gather a variety of tinder,wood shavings, dried grass, lint,
and even small twigs . you must always need to start with tinder.
Ball the tinder up loosely to allow plenty of air flow, and shape it
into a birds nest. Have plenty of bigger sticks to add once the fire starts.
------>Use a little magnesium and flint block , Scrape a pile of magnesium
shavings on your tinder and strike a spark off the flint. The magnesium
will ignite and hopefully start flame in your tinder. Once it begins to smoke,
hold the tinder in your hands to allow oxygen in through the bottom and blow
gently from underneath.
------>Use a magnifying glass , angle the magnifying glass in the sun
over the tinder so that the focal point is directly on the pile. When it starts
to smoke ,blow gently on the tinder from the bottom.
You can also use Broken glass, bottles or eyeglasses , if their focal point is bright enough.
------> Use a 6-volt battery and steel wool ,Tear the wool into a loose mass and touch
it to both charges on the battery. It will connect the circuit and cause
a spark, and cause the steel wool to glow. Once it's hot enough, you can place
it on the tinder until it catches.
------> Remove a bullet from its cartridge and pour half the powder on your
tinder. Put the half-empty cartridge back in the gun (without a bullet), and fire
it at the tinder. Make sure that your tinder is at the base of a tree or in an
enclosed area because the gunfire will likely blow the tinder away and might put
out the same flame it creates.
------> Place the point of a straight stick into a groove in a piece of bark
or flat wood. Ideally, both of these pieces contain no sap or moisture. Rub the stick
vigorously between your hands, while the point creates friction against the other piece of wood.
Eventually the wood will heat until it creates a small ember which you can drop in the tinder nest.
U could bring out fire as shown below.....Enjoy and have fun doing some thing innovative. Looks silly,But once we could bring out fire,We ill feel good.
Try..Try..U could bring fire.Be Energetic.

The Physician's Revenge!!
The men looking after the elephants could not heal their wounds. So the king sent for his own physician.
On the way to the palace the physician lay down under a tree for a nap. Hardly had he closed his eyes than he felt something warm running down his face. He got up with a start and found that a crow that was sitting on a branch directly above him, had spattered him with its droppings. The physician cursed the crow and wiping his face, continued on his way, but in a foul mood. When he reached the palace and the king asked him for a remedy for the elephants’ wounds he replied: "Rub the wounds with crow's fat, lots of crow’s fat!"
And so began a great slaughter of crows. Thousands were shot and it looked as if the slaughter would continue till all the crows in the kingdom were dead. One day, a crow flew into the palace and settled down in front of the king. Soldiers rushed forward to catch it, but the king waved them back.
"Let it be,’ he said. "Perhaps it has come to tell me something."
"I have," said the bird. "I am the king of crows and I have come to tell you that you are doing us a great wrong. You are being led astray by a man bent on revenge against my brethren."
"You are making a serious accusation," said the king." Have you any proof?"
"I have," said the crow. "The proof lies in the fact that crows have no fat, otherwise you would have got bucketfuls of it from the thousands you have already slaughtered."
The king felt ashamed of what he had done and immediately stopped the slaughter of the birds.
This story is adapted from the Jatakas and shows how important it is to evaluate advice before acting on it. It’s good to seek advice & suggestions from others , but it’s very important to evaluate them before putting into action!!

Sachin - The Master Blaster
@Hashim Amla ---South African Batsman.
"Nothing bad can happen to us if we're on a plane in India with Sachin
Tendulkar on it."
@yaseer hameed
"Sometimes you get so engrossed in watching batsmen like Rahul Dravid and
Sachin Tendulkar that you lose focus on your job."
"To Sachin, the man we all want to be"
- What Andrew Symonds wrote on an aussie t-shirt he autographed specially
for Sachin
Beneath the helmet, under that unruly curly hair, inside the cranium, there
is something we don't know, something beyond scientific measure. Something
that allows him to soar, to roam a territory of sport that, forget us, even
those who are gifted enough to play alongside him cannot even fathom. When
he goes out to bat, people switch on their TV sets and switch off their
lives "
BBC on Sachin
But the finest compliment must be that bookmakers would not fix the odds -
or a game - until Tendulkar was out.
"Tuzhe pata hai tune kiska catch chhoda hai?" Wasim Akram to Abdul Razzaq
when the latter dropped Sachin's catch.
@Brian Charles Lara again
Sachin is a genius. I'm a mere mortal.
Mark Taylor
"We did not lose to a team called India...we lost to a man called Sachin" -
Mark Taylor, during the test match in Chennai (1997)
@M. L. Jaisimha:
"The more I see of him the more confused I'm getting to which is his best
knock."
@McGrath
"The joy he brings to the millions of his countrymen, the grace with which
he handles all the adulation and the expectations and his innate humility -
all make for a one-in-a-billion individual,"
@Wife Anjali
"I can be hundred per cent sure that Sachin will not play for a minute
longer when he is not enjoying himself. He is still so eager to go out
there and play. He will play as long as he feels he can play,"
HAYDEN - I feel is the best SACHIN QUOTE
"I HAVE SEEN GOD, HE BATS AT NO.4 FOR INDIA"
My Personal Best
"Even my father's name is Sachin Tendulkar."
Tendulkar's daughter, Sara, tells her class her father's name after the
teacher informs them of a restaurant of the same name in Mumbai
KUMBLE : I am fortunate that I've to bowl at him only in the nets!
@ shahrukh
quoting Shahrukh from an interview
Que: Who do you think as most important celebrity ?
Shahrukh: There was a big party where stars from bollywood and cricket were
invited. Suddenly, there was a big noise, all wanted to see approaching
Amitabh Bachhan.
Then Sachin entered the hall and Amitabh was leading the queue to get a
grab of the GENIUS!!
@Navjot Singh Sidhu
India me aap PrimeMinister ko ek Baar Katghare me khada kar sakte hain..Par
Sachin Tendulkar par Ungli nahi utha Sakte..
@waqar younis
He can play that leg glance with a walking stick also .
A banner once said-' I WILL SEE GOD WHEN I DIE BUT TILL THEN I WILL SEE
SACHIN ' that quiet defines Sachin-The greatest.
Allan Donald...
Sachin Tendulkar has often reminded me of a veteran army colonel who has
many medals on his chest to show how he has conquered bowlers all over the
world .
In one of the interview....
I was bowling to Sachin and he hit me for two fours in a row. One from
point and the other in between point and gully. That was the last two balls of the over and the over after that we (SA) took a wicket and during the group meeting I told Jonty (Rhodes) to be alert and I know a way to pin Sachin. And i delivered the first ball of my next over and it was a fuller length delevery outside offstump. And I shouted catch. To my astonishment the ball was hit to the cover boundary. Such was the brilliance of Sachin. His reflex time is the best I have ever seen. Its like 1/20th of a sec. To get his wicket better not prepare. Atleast u wont regret if he hits you for boundaries.
Peter Rebouck - aussie journalist
On a train from Shimla to Delhi, there was a halt in one of the stations.
The train stopped by for few minutes as usual.
Sachin was nearing century, batting on 98. The passengers, railway
officials, everyone on the train waited for Sachin to complete the century.
This Genius can stop time in India!!
NKP Salve, former Union Minister
This was when he was accused of ball tempering
"Sachin cannot cheat. He is to cricket what (Mahatma) Gandhiji was to
politics. It's clear discrimination.
Andy Flower:
There are 2 kind of batsmen in the world. One Sachin Tendulkar. Two all the
others.
Feel Proud that Sachin an Indian....

Craig-Kim Combo....
Kim Kardashian has set her goals to fly high in the entertainment business. The former BFF to Paris Hilton, who shot to fame as the superstar sex tape girl with hip hopper Ray J, wants to expand from her current reality show project and become the next 007 Bond Girl. "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" is the beginning of Kim's acting career and while Kim is the star of upcoming theatrical release of the spoof film "Disaster Movie."
I wonder how many people will take her lofty goal of acting next to the respected Craig. "The Bond Girls are still recovering from Denise Richards' turn in the legendary film series," stated one Hollywood agent, "I can't see producers making the mistake of hiring a pseudo-celeb whose claim to fame is being Paris Hilton's former party buddy and star of a sex tape and treating her like a legitimate actress."
Still, our girl Kim has hope. "I want to be a Bond Girl and film a love scene with Daniel Craig after he's rescued me," she said. "I would be drowning, wearing a bikini with a gun in a sachet, and he would dive in and get me - that would be really sexy."
Hope for a Sexyyyyyyy Show Kim.......

Man United vs Porto - Awesome Energy Show.
Mariano Leveller stuns Red DevilsManchester United face a tense battle to retain their place in this Champions League after failing to hold on to the late advantage provided by Carlos Tevez in a 2-2 draw against Porto.
Although United were outplayed in the first half, Wayne Rooney's fortuitous 14th goal of the season had ensured the Red Devils were level heading into the final stages.
When Tevez turned home Rooney's back-flick five minutes from time, Sir Alex Ferguson's men must have thought they had come through a very difficult evening.
Porto had served notice that their speed and slick passing game was going to be difficult to contain.
The young Northern Ireland defender has drawn warm praise for the way he has stood in for both Rio Ferdinand and the returning Nemanja Vidic this season.
But against Aston Villa last Sunday came the first sign that the strain is starting to tell on the 21-year-old.
And after one escape, Porto were in no mood to offer another as a slack pass from Cristiano Ronaldo put United under pressure, just as it did on Sunday.
Lisandro swung over a cross that Evans should have dealt with comfortably.
Instead, he prodded the ball straight to Rodriguez, who took a stride forward before calmly curling a shot into the bottom corner.
Lisandro tested Van der Sar again shortly afterwards as United again found themselves indebted to the keeper who, at 38, was preventing a total collapse.
It was the same kind of mauling United inflicted on Inter Milan at the San Siro during the first leg of their last 16 meeting in February.
Ferguson left Milan that night wondering how his side had not come away with a victory. Porto counterpart Jesualdo Ferreira must have been feeling exactly the same at half-time given United had managed to drag themselves level.
There was certainly no need for an inquest as to how the home side got their goal. There was not a hole big enough for Alves to leap into as he contemplated his catastrophic mistake.
Alves presumably thought he was doing exactly the right thing when he turned Aly Cissokho's square pass back to Helton.
Unfortunately for the Portugal international, he had not bothered to look and therefore spot Rooney in a position that required only the finish, which the England striker delivered with nerveless authority.
It was another 20 minutes before United created an opportunity by themselves, which Darren Fletcher cannoned into Cissokho.
The intervening period had been spent chasing shadows as Lisandro, Hulk and Rodriguez made a mockery of Porto's status as competition outsiders.
Ferguson used the interval wisely judging by the way his team began the second period, showing a bit more of the finesse Old Trafford is used to.
Still, it took a moment of inspiration from Rooney to threaten the visitors' goal as Helton touched the striker's sublime chip over.
Ryan Giggs' corner brought a more routine opportunity as Vidic climbed highest only for Helton to prove the equal of a powerful header.
For all United had gained a solid foothold in the contest, Porto were still an electrifying attacking force. Lisandro and Cissokho both brought decent saves out of Van der Sar before Carlos Tevez, chasing back shortly after being introduced as a substitute, seemed to chop Hulk down in the area.
Porto finally ended with great show in Manchester United home.
Lets see what happens in Porto s home.

Zaheer's five-for gives India control
India holding 1-0 series lead after a 10-wicket victory in the first game in Hamilton, were 51 for one at the close after Zaheer Khan's seventh five-wicket haul helped bowl the hosts out for 197 in their first innings.
Zaheer finished with five for 65 from 18 overs as New Zealand conceded a 182-run lead after they had bowled India out for 379 earlier in the day.
The Indian team extended that lead with only the loss of explosive opener Virender Sehwag, who blasted three boundaries in his seven-ball innings of 12.
Lets hope for the India's glorious victory against the host team.
