Our Visit to Georgia Aquarium

The world 6th largest aquarium is Georgia Aquarium in US with more than 10,000 animals of 500 different species in more than 8.1 million US gallons approximately 31,000 ms. With my family I visited the world largest aquarium last year and my experience was awesome, amazing and I have no words to express it. It is a completely different world of amazing creatures. There are many wonderful sea animals, which are both bigger and smaller in vibrant colors. Its like really going underwater in the ocean.

Two enormous whale sharks about 20 feet long and growing are the main attraction for this aquarium along with other species like sawfish, red snappers, stingrays and hammerhead sharks. Beluga whales Nico and Gasper are exhibit in Cold Water Quest and they are treated as they are in their own home. They live with several other belugas to form a breeding program. It is a perfect destination for both children and adults.

I Don't Like To Watch WWE

I don’t like to watch WWE, simply because the game includes violence. This kind of games should not be encouraged because by seeing this kind of games people are habituated to aggressive behavior. This game involves just hitting each other. By seeing this we feel passion to fight with others. These games mostly attract children. And they will have impact mainly on those un-matured minds.

Many channels are trying to make this game more popular to maximize their profits. But, I think this kind of programs should not be tele-casted in TV. Parents should not encourage their children to watch these kinds of programs which make their children to think more aggressively.

Watching of this kind of violence programs will have aggressive impact on the society. Then there will be increase in criminal activities. As we are the responsible citizens of the country we should feel responsible for the peace in the country.

How Pop Music Evolved Into History?

How do you define pop music, if you ever had to? If I were to answer that question, all you need to do to create pop music are some scary shouts and senseless lyrics and some appealing music. Altogether you have a song made of pop music.

The major feature that made the pop music so popular is that people don’t really have to strive much to create it. You sit near a place where there are a group of birds shouting continuously since some time. There, you get some inspiration for your new album. And believe me there are some albums which exactly depict the situation.

Another thing that makes the pop music so popular is that it has the capability to deafen a person who says himself as a fan of pop music. Because he is exposed to such violent music for so much time, it is very obvious that he is going to deafen some day.

The artists in the pop music album have no such fear because they hear it only while creating it.

Taphephobia, is fear of burying alive. It was very popular with people during 18th and 19th century. It was because the medicinal support for people was not as accurate as today’s. People sometimes had to rely on doctors with not much practice in their field. It is in these cases that people were sometimes mistaken as death and buried alive. Though history has no apt evidences for this premature burial, there were Urban Legends which circulated wildly through out the society and left an epidemic of terror even within the wise and rich of the society.

Stock markets teach investors a valuable lesson

It has been a big crush of markets, not only in US, but all over the world. Many of the major stock markets went crushing and many others trembled. It is the stock market investors that have lost a lot in this play. Many have lost their fortune while many have lost their earnings. There were wails all over the stock markets.

This was actually inevitable on some day. It would have happened some day in the future if it was not today.

It was going very fine since some years; so well that even the profited were astonished at their fortune. Even a good for nothing pile of stocks were exaggerated at some pretty good level. It is human nature not to think of bad things when every thing was going very well.

But it all seemed to happen suddenly. Actually it is not all of a sudden at all. If you were a good investor you should have alarmed yourself with overwhelming situations which started with this very year. This has some silver lining on its part. Next time people will think well before investing blindly.
