Cinematic Gender Divide In Hollywood Films
Friday, 24 September 2010 08:12
Taken in 30-minute doses, "Sex and the City" the TV show was OK. Tolerable, even. But as a 142-minute movie, it was a nightmare, a shrill ode to narcissism and materialism and cute little $300 throw pillows. (Some) women loved it. Personally I don't know any of these women and, to be honest, I don't really want to know any of these women. I was only dimly aware of the hundreds of girls-night-out parties where the alcohol undoubtedly flowed freely enough to take the edge off the movie's depressing shallowness.

Sunday Poem: End of Time
Friday, 24 September 2010 08:12
End of time
After a while
it was the end of time
A time immemorial that lies beneath
Lost in its twists and twirls
curves and holes, it has fallen
finally freed from the black hole
i feel alive and living
just like the olden days
though I know,
forlone are the golden days
Memories that won't die
Stories that will not lie
A treasure trove have I kept
of the yonder years that has gone by!

My First Poem - A rendition 37 years later
Friday, 24 September 2010 08:12
This poem is about my little sister who was having problems understanding why the sky would turn dark and the rain would start pouring after the brambroum of thunder and the shattering lighting on the tree branches. She clutched a mango leaf thinking it would save a tree from the thunder...and I wrote the poem on a piece of newspaper cutting. This version is a modern one indeed as the first was written 37 years ago!
The Last Rose
Friday, 24 September 2010 08:12
I started writing poetry at the age of 13, rhyming words at the end of sentences that spoke mostly of love, respect, passion and the play time that embraces the mind of a child from the 1960's.

Eyes in Sky - This video will really scare you
Though we do not really know who took the videos and where it originates, we have the information that it was taken after the Indonesian earthquake in Padang, Riau. If you look patiently at the video, you will see a pair of eyes that is formed in the clouds overlooking a village in Indonesia. It will really shock and scare you!
However, apparently this video was taken a few years ago in Russia. Hence the source is unknown and the location too but it is a very real video, not a graphic picture.
