The twilight Zone

Last couple of days i have been watching some documentaries about nuclear fusion.
Many people have come up with methods of achieving it,and its interesting to see how ingenious the techniques are.
The most intriguing to me was "the star in a jar" method.A scientist called Rusi Taleyarkhan claimed to have developed a technique using this phenomenon,for nuclear fusion.
His papers were published twice in scientific journals.But as it happenned with fusion scientists before him,his method was rejected.
It was BBC horizon team who carried out the investigation by closely copying his techniques.
I hav only one doubt about he reason they give for rejecting his theory.
BBC people tried to detect the light released by fusion in the bubble,and the neutron released simultaneously in the billionth of a second.But can neutrons travel exactly at the speed of light?
BBC people said that they could not detect the light and neurons at the same time,but if neutrons travel slower than light,they cant be detected exactly at the same nano second.There has to be a time difference between the detection of light and the neutron.

Today two things made me happy.I went to the town center and some Scottish guy wearing kilt was playing bag pipes.I had to stand there and listen to the music.It was brilliant. (No i didn't drop some coins in the box in front of him )
Today i watched "knight rider" and the movie rewind my tape,and i remembered my boyhood when the series used to be shown on Pakistan Tv network,and we almost worshiped the car.Many people had the flashy red light fixed on the radiator grill,copying Kitt
The roads used to be deserted when Knight rider was on the tele,and people sat in front of the TV loving every cool move of the fictional car.
The series gained a massive following and even now cars can be seen with a row of red lights imitating KITT's scanner. It remains the most popular American TV show ever broadcast in the country to date.

One day an out of work mime is visiting the zoo and attempts to earn some money as a street performer. As soon as he starts to draw a crowd, a zoo keeper grabs him and drags him into his office. The zoo keeper explains to the mime that the zoo's most popular attraction, a gorilla, has died suddenly and the keeper fears that attendance at the zoo will fall off. He offers the mime a job to dress up as the gorilla until they can get another one. The mime accepts.
So the next morning the mime puts on the gorilla suit and enters the cage before the crowd comes. He discovers that it's a great job. He can sleep all he wants, play and make fun of people and he draws bigger crowds than he ever did as a mime. However, eventually the crowds tire of him and he tires of just swinging on tires. He begins to notice that the people are paying more attention to the lion in the cage next to his. Not wanting to lose the attention of his audience, he climbs to the top of his cage, crawls across a partition, and dangles from the top to the lion's cage. Of course, this makes the lion furious, but the crowd loves it.

At the end of the day the zoo keeper comes and gives the mime a raise for being such a good attraction. Well, this goes on for some time, the mime keeps taunting the lion, the crowds grow larger, and his salary keeps going up. Then one terrible day when he is dangling over the furious lion he slips and falls. The mime is terrified.

The lion gathers itself and prepares to pounce. The mime is so scared that he begins to run round and round the cage with the lion close behind. Finally, the mime starts screaming and yelling, "Help me, help me!", but the lion is quick and pounces. The mime soon finds himself flat on his back looking up at the angry lion and the lion says, "Shut up you idiot! Do you want to get us both fired?"

What can a tissue paper do?
It can be used instead of a spy satellite or U2 plane.
In may 1974,India exploded its first nuclear device.Neighboring Pakistan was keen to verify Indian claims.So the scientists wiped clean a few passenger aircrafts which passed through the Indian airspace at high altitudes.
They used tissue papers.The radioactive dust that was blown up in the stratosphere,and clung to the plane's body,was found in the tissue papers.
So the humble tissue paper worked as good as a satellite to spy on another country.

9 years ago,i was staying in a reasonable flat in the city of Karachi.Life was good,and i was updating my certificates and getting ready to join a large shipping company.I received a call from a friend.He was in Panama,and told me that he is flying back home,and wanted me to receive him at the Karachi airport.
The next day,around mid day,i was at Karachi airport,and he came out of the arrival lounge.We saw each other after a long time.I asked him to stay at my flat overnight as he was to catch a flight back home in northern Pakistan.
On the way to my flat,we kept talking,and revived old memories,which was fun.
I noticed him coughing mildly at times.After arriving at my flat,i asked him to make himself comfortable,while i went out to a nearby hotel to buy some good food.
It took me a while,and when i arrived back at my flat,i found him half conscious,and burning with fever.I was puzzled,but assumed that he had caught something from Panama.Immediately i called a doctor.The doctor arrived,and gave him some injections,and his fever was under control in a few hours.But still he was not feeling well.
He asked me to book a the next flight for his home town in Northern Pakistan.I arranged that,and despite being ill,home sweet home,made him to travel even in that condition.
As i was coming back from the airport after his departure,i started feeling ill.Within a few hours,i was burning with high fever.
I was staying alone,and kept the temperature down by taking showers frequently throughout the night.
At around 10 Am,the local clinic opened and i was the first man in.The doctor took blood samples and sent me home with some mild medication for my fever.
Through out the day,the fever did not subside,and i was back to the clinic in the evening.The blood tests were all clear.The doctor was unable to understand my illness.
He referred me to the District head quarter hospital,but the appointment was for the next day.
The next day i was checked by well experiences physicians,and all body fluid tests were carried out.They asked me to come back the next day.
The next day was my third day in high fever,and my body temperature was not going down with any medication.I was doing it on my own by taking cold showers.
The next day i went back to the hospital,and i was surprised to know that all tests carried out were clear,and the doctors couldn't diagnose my illness.I was weighed,and i found that i lost 3 pounds of weight in three days.The doctors asked me to admit myself to the hospital.
It was decision time for me,and i somehow dragged myself to the airport,covering my face with a mask all the time,and bought a ticket back home.My hometown is about two hours flight,north of Karachi,and the climate is colder,due to elevation.
As i came out of the Islamabad airport,i was not able to drag my luggage,as i was extremely week due to rapid loss of weight.
But i did feel a change.
My dad was there to receive me,an drove me back home.After a few hours of leaving the moist and humid climate of Karachi,i was already feeling better.
The next day,my persistent high fever was gone,but i had lost almost 7 pounds of weight in four days.
Presumably,i caught some airborne virus from the fiend who came from Panama.
Since Panama has similar warm and humid climate as Karachi,the virus thrived,and made him sick.
The sudden change of environment,saved us both.We traveled by plane to our home towns,and there the climate was dry and cold.The virus subdued.
Many tests were carried out by the doctors,in my hometown,and despite having years of experience,and testing me for all known diseases with similar symptoms,they could not identify the bug.
It took me 2 months to fully recover.Although the fever was gone immediately,but the weight loss was extensive,and made me very weak.
I was up and running after a few weeks,and apparently without any side effects.

Today kids can watch cartoons 24/7 on so many different channels.When i was a child(although i still don't feel like a grown up ) the PTV in Pakistan used to show cartoon three times a week,for five minutes only.
The cartoon was shown at around 6 o clock,and on the cartoon day,all five of us kids would annoy our elders all day,asking "is it 6 o clock yet?"

Are there any constants in real life?

If you want to know,who has been looking at your blog profile,just press Alt+F4 on your keyboard. Enjoy

10. You check your blog stats a LOT. You occasionally get up in the middle of the night and sneak a peak.

9. Your significant other suspects you are having an affair with your blog. Even when you’re alone with your special person, you do find yourself thinking what your blog might be doing right then…

8. You “mental blog” while driving or on the train, and sometimes even when you are alone in the shower.

7. You filter everything through your post-writing. You can’t watch a movie, see a play, read an article, or share a sweet moment with your child without thinking of whether it’s blog-worthy.

6. You suffer from “blog envy” when another blogger posts something juicy before you do. You suffer “comment envy” when said post gets 40-something comments – the jerk!

5. You “binge blog” 3 or 4 posts at once—only to feel guilty and empty afterward.

4. You ditched all your real friends for blog friends, because, well, “they understand.” You bypass Bowling Alone at the bookstore (who really cares?) while you reach for Naked Conversations.

3. You think, “I can stop at any time.”

2. Your lunch hour has become your “blog hour.” You keep a few posts tucked in your desk in case you need them during the day.

1. After 5 minutes of meeting someone really interesting you ask, “So - do you blog?”

This is where time starts.The prime meridian in Greenwich.

So a friend came to the UK last week,from Pakistan.It was his first ever visit to any European country.
At the heathro airport,he was looking for the money changers as he had all 50 pound notes,and he was told that the shopkeepers don't accept them.
He saw a small money changer inside the airport building.The woman on the counter was counting some money,and a lady customer was filling some forms.He approached the counter,and before speaking anything,reached for his pocket,and pulled out an envelop,then stick his hand inside the small hole in glass window.
The woman on the counter,looked at him for half a second,and pushed the panic button
Immediately the police were there,and he was pinned down on the floor.The woman on the counter,worryingly pointed towards the thick brown envelop which the man had pushed inside the glass window of the counter.
The police scrambled to call the bomb disposal squad.
The man was handcuffed,and as he was being taken away for interrogation,he was so confused that although he can speak very good English,he was speaking to the police men in pure Punjabi.
The police called an Asian police man,who could speak Punjabi,and then the whole story was uncovered.
The bomb disposal people cautiously opened the big brown envelop,only to find a bundle of 50 pounds notes,which the man wanted to change into some smaller currency notes.
He was released unharmed
