Your very own Iron Man suite

Wouldn’t it be cool if we can borrow the Iron Man suite for awhile and wreak havoc around the place? Well the a Japanese scientist by the name of Yoshiyuki Sanaki from the Tsukuba University engineering facility has come up with, what I’d like to think of as Iron Man suit stage I :D.

Actually this is old news, and I first saw this last year, but forgot about. Came across it suddenly some days back so I thought I’d put it here.

Named HAL 5, it’s basically an exoskeleton suite that will enhance the body’s capabilities. It can allow a person to lift up to 10 times the normal weight capable by that person. The real use for the suite is to provide mobility to paralyzed people. Other uses include in nursing, factory work and disaster relief.

It’s just in a frame like suite for now, but add on some bullet proof armor and some jet packs and woohoo, instant Iron Man suite. Tony Stark you better watch out. He he.
Isn’t it great that what someone dreamed of nearly 40 years ago are slowly become a reality? After all Iron Man first made his appearance way back in 1963, and what imagination the creators must have had to come up with the concept.

Must start saving now itself, might be able to get one when I’m 50 at least :D

Hal - 5

Well I’m still alive and kicking he he.

Been a couple of busy few weeks at office so haven’t had time to check out interesting and weird things happening around the world. Although I’ve been keeping up with my fav bloggers :) Work wise things are getting back to normal, but me’s got some exams coming up :(. Luckily finished off the assignments so have to hit the books now. Ayi caramba… there’s soooo much to go through.

Read some really moving posts about Black July experiences by Cerno and David Blacker. I was lucky enough to be too young to remember any of it. Can’t really imagine what the victims must’ve felt and gone through. A lot of meaningless violence and destruction. It’s sad really that we humans only needs a very little bit of encouragement to revert back to the levels of the wild animals.

I leave you with one of my all time favorite songs



Peace y’all

What Your Desktop Says About You

Cerno has asked bloggers to put up a post with a screen shot of the desktop.



Well this is mine at the moment. Surprise Surprise, it's a Harley :P

Desktops never stay the same. Changes with the mood of the user. However they do give a glimpse into the interests of the users.

I've had desktops ranging from Garfield, to motorcycles, cars, fighters, and metal bands. On the other hand I'd never put one up of a bunch of flowers, or babies or things of that nature. Cats, yes, but not kids :P

I've had this one for couple of months now, so guess it's high time to make some changes :)

Namal Perera: Media Security in Sri Lanka - Appeal to the Sri Lankan Blogsphere

This is a re-post of Dinidu's post as requested by him. The original post is here. Please feel free to re-post this and link it back to the original by Dinidu. :)

Cheers to all...

As you might be aware, senior journalist and media person Namal Perera was assaulted yesterday evening on his way home from work at the Sri Lanka Press Institute. This comes as a severe blow to the media industry in Sri Lanka, and the freedom of expression of the Sri Lankan people. Namal is currently undergoing treatment under police protection at a private hospital. Daily Mirror carried the story as today’s lead.

A demonstration is organized tomorrow (2nd July) at 12:30pm, at the Colpetty Junction as protest for the continued war against the media in this country, and calling for increased safety and security for the country’s journalists, and for action to be taken against the perpetrators of these crimes. Too many of these things are going unsolved.

Please try to make it for the protest.

As a personal favour, I’m appealing to the blogsphere of Sri Lanka to please repost the above in your blogs, and mail it to your mailing lists. And please link back to this original post so we can keep track of how many people viewed the post. Thank you.

Why do bus conductors charge fares from clergy and not from cops?

Shouldn’t it be the other way around?

Guess that’s the way we are programmed. Suck up to authority and be safe. After all, the policeman can make trouble for you, while what can clergy do? Damn you to hell? Most people are already there so it won’t matter to them.

It’s very rarely I’ve seen a bus conductor not charge clergy. Saw it yesterday, hence the post. On the other hand, never have I seen a cop being asked for money. Bus conductors who normally shout at passenger “Salli ganna, salli ganna”, gets partial blindness when cops get in. Ok most of them are probably cursing the coppers at the end of the day, but if they can let them ride free, why not clergy? I guess it depends on the moral standards of the bus conductor. Unfortunately it is non-existent in most of them.

Can People be this Stupid?

A conversation that happened in a Liquor store in Hawaii

Cashier: “Aloha, how are you today?”
Tourist: “Oh, I’m sorry, I don’t speak Spanish. Could you talk in English please?”
Cashier: “Hello, how are you today?”
Tourist: “Fine, we just flew here from America today.”
(The cashier rings up the tourist’s few items.)
Cashier: “That will be twenty five dollars and eighty five cents.”
Tourist: “Do you take American money here? I only have American money. I have not been able to get to the currency exchange yet.”
Cashier: “Ma’am, we are in the United States. We take dollars here.”
Tourist: “Oh really? You take this money?” *holds up her $20 bill*
Cashier: “Yes, ma’am, those are dollars, and being a US state we do accept those.”
Tourist: “Well that’s very nice of you to accept foreign money.”
Cashier: *puzzled* “Mahalo, have a great day!”
Tourist: *under her breath* “I told her I didn’t speak Spanish!”

Conversation between a Pizza parlor and a customer

Customer: “Hi, I ordered a pizza from you guys a while ago, and they delivered the wrong one.”
Operator: “Oh, I’m sorry! What was your order?”
Customer: “Mushrooms and green onions… the one we got had sausage. We can’t eat sausage! We’re vegetarians!”
Operator: “Okay, do you still have the pizza? We can come by and switch them for you.”
Customer: “No, we ate it.”
Operator: “You ate it?”
Customer: “Yes! Now, I’d like to get my money back. It was the wrong pizza.”
Operator: “So… you want me to give you your money back… for a pizza you already ate.”
Customer: “Well we didn’t LOOK at it, we just ate it.”

Tech Support

(Back story: the customer was getting a blue screen of death on their computer.)
Operator: “Hello, thank you for calling tech support. How can I help you today?”
Customer: “I was wondering if you could tell me who general failure is and why he is trying to read the C drive on my computer?”
Operator: “Ummm…excuse me?”
Customer: “I said that some guy named General Failure is reading my C drive.”
Operator: “…How did you come to this conclusion?”
Customer: “When I booted up my computer I get a big blue screen that says “General failure reading drive C,” and I demand to know who this person is!”
Operator: *stifling laughter* “Okay, if you don’t mind I am going to place you on hold for about 10 minutes while I do an investigation as to who this person is…”
(I placed customer on hold and told my co-workers. We laughed our asses off for 10 minutes.)
Operator: “Thank you for holding. I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is I was able to find some information for you. The bad news is that I wasn’t able to confirm who this ‘General Failure’ is; I am sure he doesn’t work for us. The other thing is that your hard drive is fried, and I would advise you to try to pull any data you can off the drive and invest in a new one. Is there anything else I can do for you today?”
Customer: “Um…no thank you.”

In a Supermarket

Customer: “What the f**k, you shortchanged me!”
Cashier: “Ma’am, I gave you the exact amount of change that is on the receipt.”
Customer: “BULLS**T! YOU SHORTCHANGED ME YOU STUPID LITTLE F**K! I DEMAND THAT YOU GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK RIGHT NOW!”
Cashier: “I’m sorry, ma’am. I will go get a manager for you right away.”
Customer: “F**K YOU, YOU LITTLE PIECE OH S**T! I WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS. YOU WILL PAY!”
(At this point the customer began to storm down the aisles. She lit a cigarette and began setting merchandise on fire. Afterwards she ran from the store because she realized that she had in fact had gotten the right amount of change!)

This were real conversation that had happened between customers and shopkeepers. There’s a whole site dedicated to these called http://notalwaysright.com/, and I seriously suggest everyone to go through them. :) It’s a great pick me upper when those blues kick in.

Equation for Men and Women

Got this in email today. It’s true aint it? :)

----> Equation 1

Human = eat + sleep + work + enjoy
Donkey = eat + sleep

Therefore,
Human = Donkey + work + enjoy

Therefore,
Human - enjoy = Donkey + work

In other words,
Human that don't know enjoy = Donkey that work

----> Equation 2

Men = eat + sleep + earn money
Donkeys = eat + sleep

Therefore,
Men = Donkeys + earn money

Therefore,
Men - earn money = Donkeys

In other words,
Men that don't earn money = Donkeys

----> Equation 3

Women = eat + sleep + spend
Donkeys = eat + sleep

Therefore,
Women = Donkeys + spend

Therefore,
Women - spend = Donkeys

In other words,
Women that don't spend = Donkeys

----> To Conclude:

From Equation 2 and Equation 3
Men that don't earn money = Women that don't spend.

So, Men earn money not to let women become Donkeys! (Postulate 1)

And, Women spend not to let men become Donkeys! (Postulate 2)

So, we have?
Men + Women = Donkeys + earn money + Donkeys + spend money

Therefore from Postulates 1 and 2, we can conclude

Man + Woman = 2 Donkeys that live happily together!

It’s One of Those Days

Yep, one that right royally screws you up early in the morning.

I take the train in the morning coz I’m a fan of riding the rails, and I usually take the express coming from Matara, since it only stops at two of the stations out of the eight between where I get on and off. It’s about 15 minutes faster than a slow train. As I came to the stations it was announced that it will be 15 minutes late, which is not unusual. So there’s a slow train that goes right after the express and it came and left, then out of the blue another slow train comes up, with no sight of the express in sight. So a lot of the usual express crowd get on that one, including me. When it stopped at one of the stations, where the express also stops, some of the people got down saying that the express was right behind. If this is the case then the slow train is held up until the express passes, so thought why wait and got down. Five minutes go by, ten minutes go by, but still no express in sight. After about 15 minutes it slowly makes it way to the station, by which time the previous train, the one I got down from, so that I can go faster, might have already reached its destination. So what else to do but get on the late express, and what happens, the bleeding engine gives up and the train doesn’t budge. Yes how wonderful.

The thing is that if I had stayed on in the earlier train, then it would have been definitely stopped to let the express pass on, but since I got down, oh no everything has to go wonky. Mind you this station is about 2.5 km’s from the Galle Road, so you have to take another bus to get to the Galle raod. Waited for another half hour in hopes that the engine will start and we’d be merrily on our way, but no such luck. Because of this fiasco all trains coming behind are also stuck.

I wait for about half an hour and decided to take the bus, and guess what happens after the bust starts to go. Yep you are right, the broken train starts to move. I tell you my timing is way off today. Apparently they’ve brought in another engine to push the broken down one from behind. Well what else to do but go ahead in the bus, with all the traffic and all.

These railway people need to be taught a lesson in information dissemination. Would it kill them to let the passengers know if the problem is solvable or not, and give some kind of time estimate? Whether they are even trying to solve the problem or not?

Anyways wasted 3 hour on the road on what is normally a 1 hour commute. I usually come to office early so it didn’t really matter, still managed to come as same time as others. Luckily the office doesn’t have strict working hours and we can waltz in any time we please. :), but what about the other people who have to get in before the “Rathu Ira”?

Normally something like this would have really pissed me off, but funnily enough I was highly amused by all this, and laughing to myself. Two conclusions, either I’m becoming more Zen like or I’m totally losing it, and I sincerely hope it’s the first one.

Sieben

(Ok couldn’t think of a witty title so Sieben = German for Seven)


Aiy caramba…been tagged again, to write up 7 weird facts about moi. Aye, such brutal honesty stuff makes me feel like I’m running nekid through a crowded street. Oh what the heck eh?

I’m supposed to display the rules as well. Don’t ask me why.

- Link your tagger and list these rules on your blog
- Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.
- Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blogs.
- Let them know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog

Hmmm here goes…

- I have this imaginary fantasy world, a cross between LOTR and Star Wars (go figure), where I can have my own little adventures. I usually go there when I pissed off at the real world, which I find myself doing quite a lot recently.

- I’m not much of a talker. Talking bores the hell outa me, especially idle chit chat. What annoys me is that people mistake that, coupled with shyness, as being a stuck up snob, which I’m not. It’s just the way I am. However, come up with an interesting subject, and will talk for ages. Otherwise get me drunk as a skunk.

- I’m not comfortable with letting people get close to me.

- Had a thing for tattoos since I was a kid. Wasn’t until recently that I was able to get them done. Already have two, and the number will definitely go up.

- I have a feeling that even though the body is growing the mind stopped growing somewhere around the age of ten.

- Fascinated by mythology, the occult and the dark side of things. The light side is so overrated and boring.

- Most of the time I feel disconnected with the rest of the world, and funnily, it doesn’t bother me either.

Ok there we go. A selected few ;)

I’m going to be the evil one here and will not tag anyone else, not because i dont care about you, but mainly coz everyone I know has already been tagged and secondly, I want to see what curse will befall me Mwuahahaha…

I invite any one who wants to write up some facts about themselves and take up the tag.

Cheers y'all

Tom, Dick and Harry

Disclaimer: This is NOT a review!

It’s been awhile since I went for a play so thought I’d drag my lazy self to see the “Silent Hands” production of Ray and Michael Cooney’s Tom, Dick and Harry at the Wendt. If I’m correct this is not the first time they are doing it, but this time it’s for some worthy causes. The proceeds of the first night, Friday the 30th of May, went towards the vehicle fund of Methodists College and the Saturdays performance was in aid of the Welfare fund of St. Peters College. Don’t know about the third night :)

Well it was just what the doctor ordered to drive away the blues of a depressingly wet day. Laughed my head off from the beginning till the end of the show. It was a hilarious script, and wonderfully delivered by a great cast. Credit for Jehan Bastiens and Neidra Williams for a great job in adapting it with a local flavor, and directing the play.

A big round of applause for all the guy and gals for putting on a great show.

Cheers!!!

A Piano with a Tech Boost

The piano or pianoforte is one of the most versatile musical instruments available, capable of making beautiful music. From the classics to rock and roll, it has made great contributions to music throughout history.

The beginnings of the Piano dates back to the early 1700s’, where a man called Bartolomeo Crsitofori from Padua, Italy is credited with its invention. Later during the period from 1790 – 1860, it went through a lot of changes, which led to its modern form. Well you can read more about the piano here if you are interested :)

In this day and age where everything has gone hi tech, it’s quite appropriate that the humble piano to get a facelift as well. The latest such instrument is the Yamaha Disklavier Mark IV version 3.0 upgrade, which is billed as the world’s most advanced piano.

One of it’s main features is its audio recording capabilities in .WAV format, not just in MIDI, so people can use it as a recording studio to capture not just the instrument, but external sound like vocals and other musical instruments as well. All recordings are stored in the piano’s hard drive (he he who would’ve thought that we’d ever use the words ‘piano’ and ‘hard drive’ in the same sentence) and can be easily transferred to a PC via USB.

Other cool features include:

- Can be controlled by Pocket Remote Controller along with PC’s and Mac computers

- Video outputs can be viewed by connecting monitors. Piano Soft Plus Graphic files combine MIDI, audio, text and graphics to offer true multimedia experiences

- Easier search function to quickly find songs

- Improved timer play controls

- Improved support for DisklavierRadio and DisklavierMusicStore. DisklavierRadio is a streaming radio which includes a MIDI feed in each channel, which enables the instrument to play live. DisklavierMusicStore offers songs with both piano and MIDI accompaniment tracks, which users can purchase and download.

- An open-ended software-based architecture built on Linux operating system. Updates can be downloaded directly from the net. Comes with a 80GB hard drive.

All in all, this is one cool piano. Imagine if Mozart was alive today what kind of music he could create with this baby.

Now the important question is how much would all this gadgetry set you back? Well the Disklavier Mark IV, version 2.0 starts around $35,000.00. Well frankly, I’d rather spend that on getting a customized Harley and stick to playing an old fashioned traditional piano, but then again that’s just me :D

A Study in Miniature

Since of late, have this urge to buy toys, especially these model cars. I seriously think my brain is doing some funny stuff.

When I was a kid, had this fascination with recreating accidents so naturally my toys never had a long life span. It bothered me if they didn’t have any kind of damage in them, and I’d find inventive ways to cause them damage too. Luckily lost interest in toys early in life, and moved on to books… er reading them, not burning them.

Oh what the heck, what’s life without these little oddities he he :D

Cheers y’all

Southern Gems

Went down to Galle with the gang during the Vesak hols for a bit of sun, sand and sea. It's been a long time since we went down south, since we usually head for the hills during holidays, so this was a nice break.

Not many people were vacationing down south so Unawatuna beach was not very crowded, which was ideal.

Greetings for Vesak | ෙවසක් ආසිරි

I should say the most important day of the Buddhist calendar, and for Buddhists all over the world, celebrating the birth, the enlightenment and the passing away of Lord Buddha.

Even though I’m not a Buddhist, I greatly admire the teachings of Buddhism. If lived according to its teachings, it is the ideal way to live. I personally believe that no matter what religions there are, the most basic truth of them is “to be nice to your fellow man”. Ok maybe not in the same words, but it’s do. If we can follow that, then this world would be a much better place.

Unfortunately not all humans think alike. For some people it is “as long as I survive, damned be the rest”. Fortunately a majority of the people are good by nature, it’s just a few bad apples that upset the whole cart. These bad apples can cause a major damage even though their numbers are few.

It doesn’t matter what religion or faith you follow, as long as you think a bit about your fellow man. That can make a very big difference in the world.
