This so popular dial-up sound until the end of the 90’s, was once part of the lifestyle of many people around the world. Sadly though, the newer generation will never hear it.

Ethan Hunt is on a rolling run this time. Having falsely regarded as the bomber of Kremlin in Moscow, Ethan is in danger of being labeled a terrorist. His only chance is to prove himself otherwise – with bare minimum resources, and a very few friends. His adventures begin in Russia, moving on to Dubai and India, and back to the United States, that contains hair-raising action sequence. For instance, a head-on chase of a certain individual in a sandstorm in Dubai, and a jump-off from Burj Khalifa. The examples are unending; but after many realistic and spectacular action sequences, he might still be too late to stop a disaster.

I have been a fan of Tintin since childhood, but then who isn’t? And then I watched Tintin today, done by Spielberg. I was not exactly impressed. The story opens steady – it is like the director trying to freshen up in the viewers’ mind, the looks of characters from the comics, a job very well done. Then again it moves forwards to introduce Tintin, the faithful Snowy, the ship Unicorn, Thomson & Thompson and of course Captain Haddock. Daniel Craig voices Sakharine, the main villain of the film. Captain Archibald Haddock (and also his ancestor Sir Francis Haddock) is enacted and voiced by the brilliant Andy Serkis (aka Gollum and King Kong). Tintin himself is portrayed by Jamie Bell, a promising young actor. This movie is of course 3D; with better experience as compared to other concurrent ones. Well done! Given that this story is done out of three comic books (The Secret of the Unicorn, Red Rackham’s Treasure and The Crab with the Golden Claws), it is a nicely done plot, with a ...

Qi, according to ancient Chinese philosophy of medicine, is the energy that flows throughout, in and around us. Qi is what is responsible for all things alive. Now, building around this philosophy, the Wireless Power Consortium has done some remarkable research into inductive charging behaviour. Unlike traditional conductive charging, that makes use of wires, this new technology is able to generate electricity without the use of wires. As a result, devices can be charged wirelessly. Here’s how it works, basically: There two coils, a transmitter coil and a receiver coil. An alternating current in the transmitter coil generates a magnetic field which induces a voltage in the receiver coil. This new technology is at the present, targeted towards low-powered devices, such as mobile phones, that require less than or equal to 5 Watts. But further research into inductive charging is able to produce as close as 120 Watts. Wireless Powerless Consortium has in its alliance, leading consumer ...

Bruce Nolan is a small-time TV reporter with some big-time expectations. When things begin to go against his expectations in his career, he sees his life rolling down a hill. And there’s no sign of him trying to stop or to get his life back on track. Thus, with great inner force he accuses God as the primary reason of his downfall. He complains to him, he calls him names, and on one occasion he calls him a mean Mighty Smiter. And thus God appears. Dressed as Morgan Freeman, he summons Bruce to his office, and bestows all his powers upon Bruce. He also gives Bruce a very good tip, “that’s the beauty of things: no matter how dirty they get, you can always clean them up”. God is happy, and Bruce is happy – but there is only one catch. Bruce can enjoy all powers, but meanwhile he is required to carry out the responsibilities of God. Can he do it? Can Bruce solve all the problems of the world? Or does he realize that being a God is not as easy as it seems; after all; with great power come...
