  Well I scooped this very interesting one.. What an amazing video! A perfect summary of life. Passing on the metaphor of life that to get anywhere we will have ups and downs, trips and decisions, ups and downs...Such is life. Never give up on trying to succeed. It was designed like that. Just keep trying *

 

 I find this incredibly interesting and creative,a most intriguing campaign and promotion for a product and a habit.This idea or approach is one of those that could have shot out from the blues,reminiscent or having the same effect of  lighting making in a flash, with an electric intensity,a domineering and dignified presence in the clouds but this time striking in the mind and head space of an individual or a team.Then again it could have been the product or outcome of weeks and hours of painstaking brain storm by one unassuming "genius-mind" or an assemblage of creative minds. Any which way,I see it as simply brilliant and ingenious, taking from the perceptive of the subtle pitching  or reliance on the subliminal  and "subliminality" of it all,rather than a direct  onslaught that stirs the consciousness.This was achieved in the comparisons made with beer and two other exalted,lovable,irresistible,grand and noble products that are found at the very top of the l...

 

 

Karim Benzema,French Footballer and Real Madrid power house and goal scoring machine has been awarded the Ballon d'Or for 2022 Season and Calender year. The footballer whose career can be best described as a mixed bag of inconsistencies,controversies and frictions on and off the field has surprised many by maintaining an unflinching and solid consistency in self believe, rising above it all to become one of finest goal poacher and all -round footballer the world has witnessed. Under the guidance and an obvious trust in his prowess and capabilities  by Coach Zinedine Zidane he blossomed and flourished and cleaned up his persona and distorted  public perception to become wholistically accepted and even admired,earning his club's Captain's band and earning a recall to the French national team  and mending a friction laden relationship with Deschamps, the  French national team coach. He shone like a thousand stars in the 2022 football calender year with superlative perfo...

 

 

 

Deep so much story in this Painting this is the seer I love it for it speaks volumes,it speaks deep. If find yourself in the situation depicted in this painting,what will you do ? This painting is called 'Deluge scene' You see a person trying to save his father and completely ignoring his wife and kid (son) who are closer to him.  The wife represents the present life, the son the future and the father on the other hand represents the past, which the man clings. Thus losing his present life and future. A perfect metaphor of what many go through on daily basis.  Scene of the deluge, 1827 by Joseph Désiré (1797-1865) Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android

 

 

  Here is a great Man,great musical talent and depth,great composition and vocal dexterity...DAN MARAYA JOS! Not many of you might relate with him now but he was a Great Man while he was here,still with us.We present with his classic Ode to Teachers.

Eliud Kipchoge, the world’s fastest marathon runner 2 hours 1 minute and 9 seconds. That’s how long it took Eliud Kipchoge to complete the 42.195 km Berlin Marathon. He broke the world record, which he already held. In 2018, also in Berlin, the Kenyan had set the record in 2 hours, 1 minute and 39 seconds.  An extraordinary performance that seems almost inhuman on closer analysis. To realise how fast the athlete ran, you have to imagine the course divvied up into 100 m sections. To achieve Eliud Kipchoge’s time, you would have to run 100 m in just 17 seconds, and then keep on doing so 420 times in a row without stopping. The two-time Olympic champion remains modest about his historic performance, however. “Berlin is a place where everyone has a chance to push their limits. I have always said that I don’t believe in limits […], I always say that no human is limited,” he said at the press conference.  Courtesy ENVOLS www.en-vols.com ENVOLS  ENVOLS

A slow brass band funeral dirge plays in the background as White drives past flood-wrecked cars, and piles upon piles of decaying household appliances, furniture and debris.  “No red lights. No people,” he observes. “It’s like the city is dead.” White is soon processing all that he’s lost inside his ruined home: his extensive library, where he kept decades’ worth of his own writing and resear...
