Jack-O-Lanterns Story

Irish children used to carve out potatoes or turnips and light them for their Halloween gatherings. They commemorated Jack, a shifty Irish villain so wicked that neither God nor the Devil wanted him. Rejected by both the sacred and profane, he wandered the world endlessly looking for a place to rest, his only warmth a glittering candle in a rotten turnip.


Check This out Top selling product of Jack-O-Lanterns

The way to make a Jack O' Lantern out of a Pumpkin is to cut off the top and stem, clean out the interior and seeds, hollow out the shell and decorativley carve the pumpkin, usually with shapes of funny or scary looking faces. More recently, different complex designs may be carved by using stencils and special carving instruments. Traditionally a real candle, either a votive candle or tea light is placed inside the Jack O' Lantern to light it up like a Lantern and cast erie shadows all about during Halloween season. If real candles are used, they should never be unsupervised, and a chimney should be carved into the lid to let heat escape.

The term Jack-O-Lantern actually means Night Watchman or Man with a Lantern, with the earliest use in Newfoundland in the mid-17th century, regarding the will-o'-the-wisp type phenomena, rather than a carved Jack O' Lantern. Will O The Wisp refers to ghostly lights that hover over damp ground or bogs in still air during twilight or at night,which looks like a flickering lamp and seems to go away when approached. There are scientific possiblilities for this, but folklore says that it is mischievous spirits of the dead or supernatural beings who try to lead travellers astray, also know as "Corpse Candles" , "Hobby Lanterns", or "Jacky Lanterns". In America, the Carved Pumpkin was also long associated with the harvest season even before it became a popular Halloween emblem. Now the Jack O' Lantern has become one of the most beloved Halloween Icons, with children and adults alike enjoying carving out their Jack O' Lanterns in the most simple and intricate designs.

Trick or Treating - History and Origin

Trick or Treating came from All Soul’s Day(also known as Hallows Eve) parades in early England. The poor citizens of England would line up on the sides of the street as the richer members of the community paraded by and threw them pastries called soul cakes. The starving citizens would accept these cakes in exchange for praying for the richer class’s dead family members.

Indian scientist spots UFO

When a team of geologists went on an expedition to the Himalayas, they were hardly prepared for an encounter of a different kind. A scientist of the ISRO's Space Application Centre here, who was part of the team, now claims that the team members sighted an unidentified object at 14,500 feet that "could be a UFO." ISRO is now studying photographs of the 'object' taken by team members.

Anil Kulkarni, a marine and water resources scientist at SAC, said it could also be an object used for spying.

Members of the team, which also had professors from different universities and students, were on a mission to study the Samudra Tapu glacier.

Kulkarni says he is aware of some countries reportedly using spying devices like satellites, balloons and even flying objects. "We can confirm whether it is an object from outer space or a spying device only after the photos are analysed by experts and the other team members give their versions."

"It was around 6.45 am when one of the team members saw a balloon-like white object. He warned others mistaking it for a yeti. When we went closer, it was something different."

Paper Planes MIA With Lyrics

Artist:- Mathangi Maya Arulpragasam (born July 17, 1977) better known by her stage name M.I.A., is a British songwriter, record producer, vocalist and visual artist of Sri Lankan Tamil descent.


Lyrics


I fly like paper, get high like planes
If you catch me at the border I got visas in my name
If you come around here, I make 'em all day
I get one down in a second if you wait

Sometimes I think sitting on trains
Every stop I get to I'm clocking that game
Everyone's a winner now we're making that fame
Bonafide hustler making my name

All I wanna do is (BANG BANG BANG BANG!)
And (KKKAAAA CHING!)
And take your money

Pirate skulls and bones
Sticks and stones and weed and bongs
Running when we hit 'em
Lethal poison through their system

No one on the corner has swag like us
Hit me on my burner prepaid wireless
We pack and deliver like UPS trucks
Already going hell just pumping that gas

All I wanna do is (BANG BANG BANG BANG!)
And (KKKAAAA CHING!)
And take your money

M.I.A.
Third world democracy
Yeah, I got more records than the K.G.B.
So, uh, no funny business

Some some some I some I murder
Some I some I let go
Some some some I some I murder
Some I some I let go

World's fastest bowl / bowler Cricket

World's fastest bowl / bowler

Pakistani bowler Shoaib Akhtar has broken cricket's equivalent of the four-minute mile, sending down a 161kmh (100.04mph) delivery. The ICC is yet to endorse the record, which breaks Jeff Thomson's longstanding record.

Akhtar's achievement was cast into doubt because the broadcaster's speed gun, developed by Electronic Development House, was out of order. The 100mph delivery was measured on a device supplied by a Lahore hi-tech company, Cybernet.

It fell to earth, I knew not where;
For so swiftly it flew, the sight
Could not follow it in its flight.

It fell to earth, I knew not where;
For, who has sight so keen and strong
That it can follow the flight of song?


Long, long afterward, in an oak
I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end,
I found again in the heart of a friend."
