MACHU-PICCHU - now its one among the wonders of the world

If we want to travel and know the history of the world, Machu Picchu could be our alternative tourist destination. Machu Picchu is one evidence of amazing ancient human civilization. Machu Picchu is located in the mountains with altitude 2450 meters above sea level, precisely in the Urumamba Valley, 80 km north of Cusco, Peru State.

Machu Picchu means Old Mountain in Quechua language, which is sometimes called the Lost City of the Inca. Machu Picchu is the most famous symbol of Inca Empire that ever existed in the ancient South America. Location of Machu Picchu was a secret and remote, in the mountains near the precipice, as a form of natural defense.

Construction of buildings in Machu Picchu proves that ancient human civilization has advanced. Machu Picchu was built by the ancient Inca architectural style with walls of polished stone. The main building is Intihuatana, Temple of the Sun and Three Window Room. These places are sacred area of Machu Picchu. There are thousands of very high value artifacts that found there. The central building of Machu Picchu has the classical architectural style with stone wall which is neatly arranged.






Incas were recognized in the world as the best in terms of buildings, including irrigation. Irrigation system was built to bring water from the holy spring to each house in turn. Because the structure of state land in Peru earthquake prone, then the construction of buildings in Machu Picchu built without mortar. The stones were arranged till they can move a little but did not collapse. Design of doors and windows are trapezium-shaped with a certain slope so that spared from the earthquake. How the Inca people can put a large stone blocks on top of the mountain remains a mystery until now.
Now some of the artifacts used for research in order to know more about the history of the Inca tribe. Machu Picchu is estimated to include the generation of the 9th Inca who ruled in the mid-15th century.

All about Rajini.. Once a super star... Always a super star

I am a ardent fan of Rajini...

My tryst with Tamil cinema began when I frequented my aunt’s place at Sillarahalli (Dharmapuri District, Tamil Nadu). Summer holidays simply meant a month-long stay at Sillarahalli and everything Tamil. This little village had one TV meant for public viewing and the evenings never once had a dull moment for all residents, the young and the old, the restless wife-beaters, alcoholics, parents as well as lovers who perhaps got free entertainment during their precious courting time.

A black & white TV (the one with wooden shutters) under a banyan tree fitted with loudspeakers made sure all village folk were thoroughly entertained with Tamil film songs, news and movies. At times, a VCR or a VCP (Video Cassette Player in case people have forgotten them) reduced reliability on Doordarshan. This, coupled with frequent visits to nearby towns to catch a Tamil film got me hooked to, well, Tamil films. To me, Tamil films simply meant two individuals – Rajnikanth & Kamal Haasan. Nothing else really mattered. As I look at Endhiran, Rajnikanth’s next magnum opus out on September 10th, I pinch myself and wonder how this man has held fort as THE superstar down south for 35 long years.

Padma Bhushan Shivaji Rao Gaekwad, better known to all of us as superstar Rajnikant’s rise to superstardom is a classic rags to riches story. His style and mannerisms got him an entry into Tamil cinema when K. Balachander took note and gave him a break in Apoorva Ragangal (1975). There has been no looking back ever since.

Rajni’s rise to fame has largely been his mass appeal. Pretty much all of his hits in the 80s were a rip-off of Amitabh Bachchan classics. These include films like Padikkadavan, Mr Bharath, Thee, Billa, among others. Each of his roles was something the common man could relate to. My father made sure I never missed even one film of his in Bangalore. A regular worker in the industrial sector, a bus conductor (which he really was when he worked in Bangalore), an auto driver, the village brat and a plethora of such like roles made Rajni an instant hit with the masses. Of course, this came with all the attitude and mannerisms that no one could replicate, be it the way he lit his cigarette or his stunts with guns and knives. Rumour has it that Aishwarya Rai, who stars alongside the superstar in Endhiran deliberately ensured that there were several re-takes for a particular shot, only to keep watching Rajni pop a cigarette into his mouth effortlessly.




Rajni’s philosophy on giving back to the society through philanthropy, his take on life and lessons to be learnt on simplicity and humility have always given him a cult-like status. Almost every time he is given a chance to speak, fans scream loud enough to make sure you don’t understand what is being said. More importantly, modesty acquires a whole new meaning when he starts uttering those first few words, be it on-screen or off it. His noble acts like compensating the producers of Baba & Kuselan for the losses they incurred, as well insisting that he won’t charge a penny for Endhiran until it is declared a superhit (as claimed by the producer who recently went on record) indeed catapults him to superstar status.

When Muthu was dubbed in Japan as Muthu: The Dancing Maharajah, Rajni even became a rage in Japan. Such is his fan-following that people even travelled from Bangalore to a nearby town in Tamil Nadu when Sivaji did not release on time in Karnataka. When they did make it to the theatre on time, the theatre owner first displayed a picture of the superstar on-screen, much before the censor board certificate appeared. This is purely for the benefit of the fans who actually performed a full-fledged pooja (along with a priest seated in the front stalls) before the projector rolled. If the audience immensely appreciates a song, especially the classic Rajni entry songs that are common to his films, the audiences even ensure that it is repeated. A friend even narrated an incident where this die-hard fan made it to Chennai, all the way from Australia, only to make sure he caught the first-day-first-show. Most single theatres in Tamil Nadu began the first show as early as 5 am in the morning. Several single theatres thus ran over 10 shows in a day, all booked to the last seat.

At the recent launch of Endhiran’s music in Kuala Lumpur, ace Tamil lyricist Vairamuthu summarized the life of the superstar stating this was the only actor who has managed to connect with all four generations of moviegoers. In Vairamuthu’s own words, Rajni sang for his first song as a lyricist. Rajni continues to do that 35 years later. Only this time, Vairamuthu’s son debuted as a lyricist for his first Tamil film – Endhiran.

Although Rajni has clearly indicated that he will no more play a hero and rather don roles that are more attuned to his age after Endiran, he is and shall always remain the quintessential superstar.

Worlds Tallest Dog 7 feet taller.. GREAT DANE

Standing at nearly 43 inches tall from paw to shoulder and weighing a staggering 245lbs could this be the world's new tallest dog?

Pictured here in the parks of Tuscon, Arizona, George, a four-year-old blue great dane, looks more like a miniature horse than a dog.

Now George's owners, David and Christine Nasser, are awaiting confirmation from Guinness World Records to see if he has achieved the lofty heights. 'He's 42.625 inches at the shoulder,' said David. 'He's very very unique.'




Dr. William Wallace of the Buena Pet Clinic in Tucson, who witnessed the documentation necessary for the Guinness record, said: 'In my 45 years of experience working with giant breed dogs, without question, George is the tallest dog I have ever seen.'
