The Incredible Bruce Lee
Tuesday, 30 July 2013
Lee was challenged by a man who had a grudge against him in 1962 at a YMCA in Seattle. After being pushed and provoked for months, Lee finally agreed to fight the man who did karate and had a blackbelt in judo. The fight would be three two-minute rounds, with the winner being the one who knocked his opponent down our out in two of the three rounds.
They met at the handball court at the YMCA with Jesse Glover as the referee and Ed Hart as the time keeper. Lee strode into the fight wearing street clothes and held a Wing Chun stance. His opponent arrived in a keikogi, or fighting uniform, and held a karate stance. Lee deflected an initial kick with his right forearm and simultaneously punched the man in the face with his left hand.
He deflected a couple more punches and landed several of his own until he had the man pinned against the wall. The man tried to grab Lee’s arm, but instead he got double fist punch to the chest and face by Lee and then a kick to the nose. The man’s nose started bleeding and got knocked out by the kick, and Glover stopped the fight. Ed Hart said the fight lasted exactly 11 seconds long and Lee got 15 punches and a kick in. They thought he’d killed the man.
Indian Man Builds a Mini Taj Mahal Memorial for His Late Wife
Tuesday, 16 July 2013
True love, as they say, never dies. Even if your partner has already left this world, your love for him or her can still make you do things you never thought you could do.
And that’s exactly what Faizul Hasan Kadari’s love for his wife did to him.
After his wife passed away in December 2011, this 77-year-old retired postman decided to create a replica of the great Taj Mahal in honor of his beloved wife. Yes, the Taj Mahal –- and not just a small sandcastle-like replica, but a life-sized structure for that matter.
Months after starting the project, the structure now stands on a piece of land measuring 5,000 sq. feet, in Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh, India. Standing at 561 feet high, this magnificent replica already cost Mr. Kadari almost US$37,200, with plans on spending more.
“I used to think that Shah Jahan insulted the common man by building a magnificent monument to love. But after the death of my wife in December 2011, I realized that it had more about the intensity of love than the money,” he said. “Since we were issueless and I had no other liabilities, I started construction of my own Taj Mahal on a piece of land [that] was not useful for agricultural purposes.”
When his time finally comes, he wishes to be buried inside his masterpiece — beside his wife.
“I have written in my will that my graveyard should be besides her.”
Now that is true love.

Facts About Coke
Saturday, 22 June 2013
Coca-Cola is one of the most popular soft drinks in the world. In fact, over one billion cans of Coca-Cola are consumed every day. But this magical drink can be used in many more ways than just an ordinary cold refreshment.
1. Coca Cola was first invented by a pharmacist name John Pemberton as a medicine to cure headaches.
2. Coca-Cola is called “Coca-Cola” because of the original ingredients used in the medicine, Coca leaves and Kola seeds.
Wine was also added in place of sugar similar to the coke we drink today.
3. When Mentos is added to Coca-Cola, the carbon dioxide in the coke will be rapidly released, causing
the coke in the bottle to burst out. Diet coke works the best.
4. Coca-Cola can be used to help cure jellyfish stings.
5. Coca-Cola can also be used as a cleaning solution, cleaning anything from rusty pans to dirty toilets. It can also be used to remove odor.

7.While someone was having a competition “who can drink the most coke in one go” they drank 8 bottles of coke and died on the spot. This was because he had too much carbon dioxide and to less oxygen in his blood.
8. Coca cola was first green in color.
