May The Force Be With You....


Of late I have been learning a lot about the Star Wars Extended Universe, i sometimes stay amazed at the Sheer luck of George Lucas, none of his earlier movies did well but the moment he completed Star Wars, the Original Movie later named as "A new Hope" became an almost cult movie thus laid down the path for him to create the two sequels and the Three Prequels later. But he did not even stop at that! he continued to release animations as well as comic books one after the other depicting heroic tales both prior and after the events depicted in the six films, thus the entire Universe of Star Wars came to existence along with its myriad species both humanoid and non......


There is a detailed Wiki in Wikipedia called the Wookeypedia on the net check it out!

Although I found some of the adventures to be repetitive and taking strong support from the original films in their making also that some concepts are a bit too overstretched which sometimes do become a bit hard to swallow, and are possibly done to cater to the fan's desires and wishes, there is no doubt about the fact that George Lucas has outdone himself as he did everything with a vibrant passion and with such a vision which he had the imaginative capability to dream up first.

Also the inlaid philosophies depicted in the concept is definitely commendable along with the clear distinction of Good and Evil which is so rare in this days of shady super heroes and psychologically challenged cynic mutants and the nihilistic attitude towards the future which the popular culture gives us today.....


Coming back to the point I find Star Wars to be a captivating experience and no matter what he discrepancies it might have I am, after all, and would always be a die hard Star Wars Fan, my dad showed me the first film when i was but a kid and it caught my imagination right away!


Oh! How many happy hours did I ran around the house with a toy sword in my hand(it was real lightsabre then!) and gesturing towards articles which actually flew(in my mind!), I cannot say (In fact I still do it occasionally when I am absolutely sure no one's looking!).....Well, after all I was and still am the greatest Jedi who ever lived.....



To you all I say this
as master Yoda said,"Meditate on this, I will." "Meditate on this, You Should."




The Greatest Jedi



I finish with this simple thing once again said by the venerable Jedi master

"For my ally is the Force. And a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. The force surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you."
Although a long time has passed still Lord Darth Vader is Considered to be the Face of Star Wars.

Planning neo-auditory sensation...

I got a butterfly in my stomach only two weeks left for me to come back, planning to buy a MP3 Player for mom let's see might go tomorrow, not a very expensive one maybe but definitely one with multiple uses, i found one of Sony Erickson which has a two GB memory capacity, works as a mp3 player; has FM, with FM recorder and voice recorder and also acts as a pen drive.. so that's that!
here's a pic of the thing....


Hope you guys like it....

I also thought f taking the Apple i-pod but I found this to be more user friendly, at least to a person who do not like to get into any complexities regarding computers than he absolutely has to!

My future in Blogging...

I have seen a lot of peculiar people in my life but none more peculiar than I myself am, so with every body's permission I guess i shall have to star exercising my literary side of mind, and I am planning to start an entire new BLOG for that, in fact I am planning to start two more blogs, one containing the periodicals of my literary output(as and when i am inspired), secondly I plan to comment from my professional point of view, which would be a totally law related blog, where I shall be putting my comments regarding everything and anything seen from the point of view of a lawyer, but this would have to wait until I start my practise once again, which would at least take another month or two and I am not expecting to write anything in that blog for another couple of months.








As for the other blog I would be starting that very soon, there I would be putting on my plots for everybody and it will be a real pleasure to share my plots with the rest of the world, be assured to visit the wondrous worlds and meet the most exotic of races and learn about their culture and lives, also learn of the great heroes and the legendary expeditions of the greatest of the generals and the mages of the Worlds of AAndurea; Visit the quaint towers of Kaalebarr; take a part in the clashes between the dreaded Occult Confederation and Association of Heroism and White Magic; visit the the world of Yemun and meet some of the most exotic of mythical creatures and see how the great heroes use guile politics, swords, magic and down right lies to fight off the dark forces.........

A lot of stuff to read and a lot of places to go...

Hi guys today the whole day I was busy collecting some pretty interesting documents regarding the controversial "Right to Die", I found an awesome collection both for and against the topic.... I would start adding my finds after I actually find out some more stuff!

Meanwhile I am a bit sad that I could not write anything yesterday but I promise to make it up by adding a number of stuff in the coming month as I plan to go to a number of places during the week ends...firstly I plan to go to Traimbakeswar; then to Elephanta Caves and then to Ajanta and Elora.....and finally last but in no means the least...HOME! SWEET HOME!

I can't wait to start my new life which is is both new and old for me as it would take me to my beloved world of courts yet in a way I have never experienced yet....

although I am excited I am pretty tensed too, as to how I would be adjusting myself and am frankly, pretty tensed about my future.....

World Within Worlds....a thought...

Hi guys I was going through the blog of the Creator of Spiderwick Chronicles today(by the way I have not yet watched the movie, and couldn't get my hands on the books as of yet!), but I found almost everything there is to know about the Spiderwick Chronicles and I couldn't help myself wonder the various way people create their own imaginary worlds just to bring back the the adventure that has so much gone from our lives, sometimes I do envy our ancients, they did not know about the real of the World and had a lot more to dream on, than even our kids have today, let alone grown ups! I find this disconcerting as what would the condition of our next generation be if there is no food for imagination available...

But why am I talking about this? I planned to write something else...!...SO....


You know the concept of a secret world within Worlds was first successfully created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, in his novel called The Lost world(The name is borrowed for the second Jurassic park Movie, but the story is completely different and believe me much more entertaining!) it was one of the various adventures of professor challenger. Sir Conan Doyle also wrote a very gripping but not very popular short story called The Horror Of Heights, where a scientist discovers a secret world high above in the air , which was a sort of Jungle and when he reaches it he gets killed by the Predators of the Avian forest.


Jonathan Swift also created a number of secret World within worlds in the adventures of Gulliver.


Then came a wide variety of writers who were fascinated by the concept of a secret world residing within our own, in fact the Fantasy Genres started developing by the handful solely based on that eerie plot of having a secret world where one can travel back and forth, live a comparatively mundane life in the real world and have adventures in the exotic, slowly the so called real and definitely mundane world fades into the back ground making the exotic world real as it is there where the characters can live like they always dream of living and have a meaningful life. Usually it is the children who visits these worlds as they are the ones who doesn't want to be bound by the rules of the physical world and rather be free in their dram worlds, sometimes even the adults can go there if and only if they remember how they too were once kids and could imagine. But it is always the kid's prerogative to be heroes in these worlds. it has always been portrayed that these kids who are misunderstood at first becomes a far better person than many and do far more good than one can possibly hope and they do it out of their good hearts and instinct and not from the tuition's given to them regarding what is good or bad!


However, coming back to Spiderwick and Conan Doyle's lost World...did you guys know that Sukumar Ray , father of Satyajit Ray, a master in creating satires and literary nonsense had made a pun of The Lost World and created the novella professor Henshoram Hunshiarer Diary! it is too funny if you could get your hands on a collection of Sukumar Ray read it once, you would find the most interesting combination of humour mixed with adventure and also a clean fun parody of the Lost World and the dark fun of the Secret World!

A World Within Worlds!!

My Favourite Team!

There are many collections of superheroes and super teams but so far The Justice League is one of the most satisfying of all the teams, of established super heroes. You can find all sorts in this Team, brain, brawn, alien technology, aliens themselves, mystical prowess and they do not suffer a constant inferiority complex like those mutants of Stan Lee, in fact they are almost in total control of their powers and they are quite happy to happy to have their powers and no matter what comes they are at peace with themselves regarding their place in the world, that is , they are there to protect the world and fight as the good ones and are free from the psychological traumas and scepticism that seem to infest the more modern heroes. They are in the true sense of the term are true Super Heroes all of them....that is the reason I have taken the pain of finding out real life pics of all the members of the original Justice League as they are seen separately in the various media sources be it television or the big screen...hope you guys like it....





Superman, easily the leader of the team with his near invulnerability and iron strong sense of good and bad and exceptionally high moral values he however can be a little...well hard ass when it's very necessary to take care of the bad guys permanently, also his super strength makes him a bit too obvious and lacking in tact and that certain finesse. However, he is, after the ideal savior of earth the last son of Krypton loves his adopted home more than his own life and would happily take the worst hits just to save the other members of his team, sometimes he is also like the father figure of the team





Then comes the Dark knight the masked crusader of Gotham City, he who is also known as the world's greatest detective. Although he is not a bad person and is perhaps the most suitable one after Superman to become the Leader, Batman, however, always is a solitary creature and is overly sceptical, even about his own team members, he doesn't take the responsibility to lead although he seldom listens to the leader if it is not Superman, whom Batz has given the authority to dictate him. He is the only member of the Team who does not have any Supernatural powers, however, that does not make him any less dangerous as he is devious creature and can pull tricks out of his cape and that multi purpose belt of his to no end.

Green Lantern, the one who actually does takes up the leadership, in the absence of superman a veteran of crack team of elite alien troopers who keeps law and order in the galaxy. He is an ex army man who goes by all the martial disciplines and is a successful leader in times of crisis his power ring makes his powers only limited by his imagination! Now that is a very powerful thing to possess.






The Flash well everyone knows about him he is just fast...in fact he can go supersonic and can run over water! the prankster in the team, due to his fast metabolism, he is always eating. He also thinks pretty fast so fast that sometimes he is known to act rather rashly. Loves to irritate the Green Lantern, who shows as if he hates his guts but is in fact his best friend!






The daughter of the fierce amazons with the blessings of Hera the mother Goddess, she is the ultimate crime fighting girl and her nobility of character matches to that of Superman, however, she is quite naive as she was not brought up in the ordinary world and is not very comfortable with the real situations of life, she is the ultimate champion of the ladies the greatest girl power of truth and justice....oh..by the way she secretly loves Batman...hows that?...you wanna hear more? batz share the same feelings for her but neither speak of it. The only thing is all the other team members know about it but they don't discuss it!




Aqua man! the ultimate ruler of all the seven seas an Atlantian, a demigod in himself(sorry couldn't get a better pic!)....well I guess that's about it, he has relatively small(although very important) role to play in the team's various adventures, he is not a full time member(come on the guy's a king! he has his duties to perform!), but always comes when the need is dire!





An alien with a very aggressive and bad temper, she is pretty loves the Green Lantern more than her life but when in war this out of town (or planet rather) will give any of the other guys a run for their money, she always accompanies superman whenever there is a need to go berserk and charge head on












Jon the Martian Man hunter is the pure Green Martian(although the last one) he has also adopted earth as his home and he has the plethora of psyonic abilities, he is a master strategist, although he seems to weaken after every little bit of fight(must be the old age!) he is the next most sombre one is the team after Batman





This sums up the Justice League as I have seen it and loved it....may the info is less but I just love these guys.....

let me give you another proposition ...who do you think would (strictly by discussion though!) be the best suited leader of the Justice League, between these two?

I plan to get a pet...can I get a suggestion

I was planning to get a pet for sometime now, what should I get? a Gryphon or a Dragon....or maybe a Phoenix? I am really confused! A baby Gryphon, according to my researches, may be trained like a dog, a Dragon though, behaves like a cat and can be very fussy, a Phoenix would treat you like it's lover and would be pretty jealous and possessive...a Salamander would be too much of a trouble and messy, while cockatrice a would be just too moody and you can't possibly have an Unicorn if you don't have lots of room for it to stretch it's legs. If anybody could help me out about it it would be so nice. I would add a few
pics for people to decide.






I was planning to name it "Lilly", she is a cute little golden dragon very sweet and a quite proud of herself...






This little Gryphon, I planned to call "Fuzzy"... he is very small...yet



This Phoenix is undergoing only it's 300th rebirth so it is pretty young it takes the characteristics of the opposite sex according to it's master or mistress....I thought of calling it "Salma"...for some strange reason...!











I quite like this male young Unicorn foal but, like I said i really don't have that much space to let him run around freely....I would have named him "Rusty".....






This young Salamander is also pretty decent but I am not exactly a wriggling lizard kind of person and also you have to keep a furnace burning permanently and you have to regulate it's diet very carefully, it becomes a very big and serious responsibility as they are very delicate....I thought of calling him "Smokey"!





"Prancer",he is a brick red Pegasus foal very naughty, I might take this...








"Rover", a Cerberus pup, looks very cute doesn't he? But the problem lies elsewhere, Cerberus es look very cuddly when young but they are one master dogs and you need plenty of training to control them properly, they are also pretty aggressive, however I might even get him...



This little Cockatrice was also available but I am not sure i could handle such a fragile creature you have to give at least 8 to 10 hours daily behind its cleaning and feeding I don't think I could spend so much time, also they need special training to to handle, they are after all vicious creatures!...I thought of naming him "Turk"(looks a bit like turkey doesn't he?)

So guys please, if anyone reads this could you help me out by picking a choice or suggesting any one of the creatures (whether mentioned here or not)......
