Legal DVDs vs Pirated DVDs

noreply@blogger.com (Rajtilak Bhattacharjee) — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 00:12:04 PDT

I guess this picture says it all. So if you are planning to buy pirated DVDs, be prepared to start watching the movie from the word go. No time to get the bucket of pop-corn. Too bad huh! And you should always avoid sites like Pirate Bay and Torrent Freak else you might end up spending thousands in downloading free illegal movies and music et al from these sites. It would also start crowding

The Mies van der Rohe Doodle

noreply@blogger.com (Rajtilak Bhattacharjee) — Tue, 27 Mar 2012 21:16:55 PDT

Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, or Mies as we commonly know him, celebrated his 126th posthumous birthday yesterday. Google paid a homage to him with their new Doodle.

Charulata (2011)

noreply@blogger.com (Rajtilak Bhattacharjee) — Sun, 04 Mar 2012 23:57:02 PST

Based on the Bard's Noshto Nirh, Charulata by Agnidev was a stale attempt to recreate the magic that was woven long back by Satyajit Ray, Soumitro and Sharmila Tagore Madhabi. I know it would be foolishness to compare the Charulata of Ray with the Charulata of Chatterjee, but even if we don't, still this story of the bored housewife of the 21st Century can't do justice to the original story.

noreply@blogger.com (Rajtilak Bhattacharjee) — Mon, 27 Feb 2012 18:57:01 PST

You might think that the cardinal sins of first dates are discussing what went wrong with your last (beautiful) girlfriend, or maybe enthralling your date with the details of your balance transfer credit cards. They are, but there are a few other total non-starters when it comes to first dates, and this list could just save your blushes somewhere down the line. 1. Women hate walking in high

noreply@blogger.com (Rajtilak Bhattacharjee) — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 22:13:50 PST

In the light of the, rather unfortunate, events where a woman was raped in Park Street, Kolkata and 2 girls were raped by 17-18 men in the Betma rape incident, security of women (and men for that matter) have become a serious concern. I know there should be law and order to protect women, but instead of going on a debate about the same I think every woman should be concerned about their own

The Dark Knight Rises, and so does Bane. Today, their Facebook fan page offered this poster for all of its fans. I must say that Bane is rather pretty impressive. One of Batman's more physically and intellectually powerful foes. A virtually unstoppable juggernaut, he is best known for breaking Batman's back in the "Knightfall" story arc.

If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee. (Hardly seems worth it.) If you farted consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb. (Now that's more like it!) The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet. (OMG!) A
