Antimatter

From the school we are taught a subject known as SCIENCE. For some its one of their favorite subjects. In science we come to know about the three states Matter. Solid, Liquid and Gaseous. There is no other state known to man except these 3 states. I also remember the example of ice, which changes to water in liquid state, and further when boiled changes to Gaseous state. So, man cannot even think of a different type of matter.
Here the question of Antimatter arises. From the word we come to know that it is Anti-matter. Something which is the reverse, the negative of Matter. There are many instances of antimatter in fiction novels. Such fiction novels do keep us on the chair for hours as we go on reading. But are there people who are trying to create antimatter. The consequences of such a thing could be the best or the worst. Antimatter if we consider for a moment will be such a thing that could suck in any type of matter. I mean if for example a crazy fellow does develop antimatter, then how is he going to preserve it. But yeah there are people who love to do such crazy things. Ever heard of a black hole? Actually no one knows about the state of a black hole. But it sure does is a ball of vacuum that sucks everything that comes in its way. Black hole could be according to me a antimatter. Till now no one has found the actual state of a black hole. Some scientists say that the black hole is created when a star gets destroyed. Some times Super Nova also causes black hole. The name might be small but black holes are recorded to be the size of Earth. And they move.
Antimatter and a black hole can be similar in their types. Only the difference could be in their sizes. No one knows where the objects go when a black hole sucks them. People have their own say on this. Many theories are taken into account considering a black hole. But no decisive conclusion is brought to light. Some say that the black holes in space open act as a window to another dimension. Our antimatter is the same I think. There are many people who love to do such crazy stuff. They like to search for the aliens on earth and stuff like that. I have not read about antimatter produced anywhere. But yeah surely one day a psycho will surely produce some grams of antimatter just like the CLONE concept.

RED due to HEAD

Ok...............world cup 2006 is over. Italy is the world champion. And yes, Italy deserves that. Italy has played really fantastic. There was no effect of the recent SERIE A scandal on the Italian players. People were shocked when they heard about SERIE A scandal that rocked ITALY. This scandal haunted Italy for more than 2 months now. But still Italy emerged in their BLUES and knocked out the other Blues who were FRANCE. Now we come to the point. I will try to create some atmosphere and then present my views.
The Final countdown starts. Two teams with high hopes come on the field. One is ITALY and the other is France. Italians are in their blue jerseys and France is in their white jersey. Italy is going for their 4rth World Cup whereas France is going for their 2nd world Cup title. There is one player in France who has the biggest determination of all. Its ZINEDINE ZIDANE. It is his last match he will ever play for his country. In the last match against Portugal It was Zidane's penalty kick that took France to the finals. So all eyes around the world are there on ZIDANE. What's Zidane going to do? Will he give a pass to Henry? These are the types of questions that are the topic of the day for all France fans. The same questions came into my mind too. Being a Real Madrid fan I am also a fan of Zidane. Everyone's talking about Zidane. His play against the mighty Brazil and also his name being recommended for the Fifa player. The game starts with a bang. Both the teams are searching for a hole in the opposite team. At the 6th min Malouda is being tripped down by Italian defender Materazzi. IT'S A PENALYTY FOR FRANCE. And who could better take it. IT'S THE ONE AND ONLY ZIDANE. Zidane steps up to the ball, BUFFON dives to his right. It's a chip by Zidane, which rattles, on the inner side of the bar and bounces inside the box. FRANCE lead 1-0. It's bursting crackers in PARIS.
After this goal there are many attacks from both the teams. But then from a corner kick its Materazzi scoring from a perfect header. France goalkeeper Barthez could not save it. The score is 1-1. Now in the last minutes the France coach makes some substitutions. Henry and Ribery are taken off and Wiltord and Trezeguet come on. And after some time the number 10 France master ZIDANE knocks down Italian defender Materazzi with his head. Zidane shamefully bangs his head on the footballer' s chest. Referee has seen it. And after some seconds RED CARD IS BEEN SHOWN TO ZINEDINE ZIDANE. It's a decision made by the referee and ZIDANE has to walk off the field. What a shame for ZIDANE. The last game of Zidane's career is ending with a RED card due to his HEAD BANG.
MY VIEWS:- It is said that the person who Zidane knocked down uttered some abusive words to him from back. But I think that if Zidane could have kept his cool he could have helped France to victory. As Trezeguet penalty hit the bar in the last Penalty shootouts, Italy won world cup. Just imagine if there was Zidane instead of Trezeguet then what would have happened. All of the France penalty takers had scored except for Trezeguet. I don't understand why Zidane did such a horrible thing when France needed him the most.
But yes obviously Zidane's move was really shameful for him to do.

SUPERMAN HAS INDEED RETURNED

Just came back after watching "SUPERMAN RETURNS". It's indeed a fantastic movie. Being a Superman fan all of my expectations from this movie were fulfilled. Brandon Routh has done an amazing job of playing the man of steel. Superman was declared dead in 1992 comics which was sad. Many people criticized the DC comics for such a step. I watched Christopher Reeves play the character of superman. Reeves had his own type of charisma and flair in his movies. His charm took us with him. His smile flew around the world. I was crazy about the Superman movies at that time. Still now SUPERMAN fascinates me. I watched all the parts of the Superman that time. But the new movie is really well scripted and well directed too. Director Bryan Singer has done a fabulous job of getting Superman back. I never thought that after the Reeves accident I would ever get to see a new superman movie. But here I was with 110% satisfaction sitting and watching superman do his action. Many of my friends thought that it will be a poor movie BUT IT'S AN AWESOME MOVIE TO WATCH. And the bottom-line is that SUPERMAN is the best superhero of all time. Kevin Spacey as Lex Luthor is good too.
For so many actors there was this superstitious thing attached with the superman costume. Actors were offered the superhero's job but they all refused to do it. It is said that whoever will wear the superman costume will have some bad luck coming his way. Top movie industry actors refused to wear the costume. I guess the red color is been turned to a little dark color. Anyway.....The director found this new kid on the block Brandon Routh from Smallville. And there it was the new Superman Movie. I was like jumping on my feet when saw the first appearance of the man of steel. I am 23 years of age. But I don't regret or deny the fact that I am superman fan. I don't care about the people whatever they speak about my behavior. They would call me immature or anything they want. But I like to watch Superman movies. That's me.
The Special effects of this movie are too good to be seen. Such kind of movies you need to watch only in the theatres. And also Lois Lane is good. The entire cast has acted superbly in this movie. I have started my expectations from a continuation for this movie. It's a must watch movie. Your ticket money will not be wasted for sure.
