The Biggest Lego Model Ever : Taj Mahal !

Hello humanoids . Lego , my favorite pastime when i was a kid , its was  so much fun : Make your own skyscrapers , make your own limousines , make your own 7 star Hotel , and lots more ! I remember i did make a Sky scraper and yeah made a tank too and blew the building up , mwahah evil ? :-/

Ah so back to the topic ,you must have seen people messing around with Lego and making Huge and creatively artistic structures . But this structure is the Big daddy of them all , yes this structure is THE BIGGEST LEGO STRUCTURE EVER !

Here is how it looks :


Here is some interesting fact about the Lego Taj Mahal :
Lego have launched the biggest toy in the company's 74 year history - a 5922 piece model of the Taj Mahal. The model includes replicas of the minarets, domes and arches. Lego spokeswoman Jenny Brown said the Taj Mahal model was designed only for very experienced enthusiasts.
She added: 'It will certainly present a worthy challenge to most Lego fans - but a fun one.'
The model measures 3ft wide and 2ft tall. It has 800 more Lego bricks than the company's next biggest model - the Star Wars Millennium Falcon.
Here is another view of the jaw dropping Lego structure :


So much hard work .....how do they do that so efficiently ?Making this structure needs hard work  , concentration and definitely ability to be creative and perfect . !


In case you  did forget how Taj Mahal did looks ( You won't forget it of course , but there maybe people who are not aware of it ) .

Here is the true and original beauty of my country , India and yeah Its on of the Seven Wonders of the World :)



I still cant believe how the Lego guys and gals made it . Its on auction for  £200 so you better go and hurry before this gets out of your hands and yes the original Taj Mahal, in northern India, was built in the 17th century in memory of an emperor's wife. It took 22 years and 20,000 workers. How many would have made this ?

UPDATE Here is another masterpiece of Taj Mahal made out of Logo made by Arthur Gugick .

Best Rock Songs Ever - An attempt to remember Rock hits

You and i know what Rock is ( not the stone neutral ) . We have been influenced by thousands and thousands of songs but still some are pure legendary. This is an original post and if you find this similar to any post then , I DONT CARE.

Lets have a look at My all time favorite Rock Songs :

  • Bohemian Raphsody :

It is a song by Freddie Mercury and originally recorded by the band Queen for their 1975 album A Night at the Opera. The song is in the style of a stream-of-consciousness nightmare, and has unusual musical structure for popular music (it has no chorus, instead consisting of seemingly disjunct sections including operatic segments and an a cappella and heavy metal part). Despite this, it was released as a single and became a huge commercial success. In addition, the song is widely hailed as Queen's magnum opus, and it marked a decisive point in the band's career and set them on the way to become one of the world's most popular music groups. The single was accompanied by a groundbreaking music video (then termed a "promotional video") which helped establish the visual language of the modern music video. A truncated version of the song was included in all Queen's subsequent live concert performances (it is impossible to reproduce live in its entirety, being a complex studio creation) and still enjoys great popularity around the world. It is ranked #163 on the Rolling Stone magazine's list of "the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time". But people call it the best song ever written , for me it is True.
You wanna relive the moment and see the legendary freddie and his band queen sing the best rock song ever ? Here you go :



  • Stairway to Heaven :
  • Like a Rolling Stone :
    Like a Rolling Stone" is a Bob Dylan song from the album Highway 61 Revisited. It was released as a single in 1965 and is one of the most widely recognized and influential of Dylan's songs. Rolling Stone magazine ranked it as the greatest song of all time. In his 1988 speech inducting Dylan into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Bruce Springsteen remembered, "The first time I heard Bob Dylan, I was in the car with my mother listening to WMCA, and on came that snare shot that sounded like somebody had kicked open the door to your mind". Website Acclaimed Music also ranks it #1 on its Top 3000 songs list.

  • Satisfaction : I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" is a hit riff-driven rock song written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards for The Rolling Stones and produced by Andrew Loog Oldham. Rolling Stone magazine ranked the song as number 2 on its 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, while VH1 placed it at number 1 on its "100 Greatest Songs of Rock & Roll" list. In 2006 it was added to the Library of Congress National Recording Registry.
  • Purple Haze : Purple Haze is a song recorded in 1967 by The Jimi Hendrix Experience, released as a single in both the United Kingdom and the United States.

    The single peaked at number three in the UK but only number 65 in the US, where it was released in June 1967, a month after the UK LP "Are You Experienced" and three months after the UK single. In March 2005, Q magazine ranked "Purple Haze" at number one in its list of the 100 Greatest Guitar Tracks. The Rolling Stone magazine placed the song at No. 17 in their "500 Greatest Songs of All Time".

  • Hey Jude : Hey Jude" is a song by the English rock band The Beatles that was recorded in 1968. Originally titled "Hey Jules", the ballad was written by McCartney—and credited to Lennon/McCartney—to comfort John Lennon's son Julian during his parents' divorceHey Jude" was released in August 1968 as the first single from The Beatles' record label Apple Records. Over seven minutes in length, "Hey Jude" was at the time the longest single ever to top the British charts. It also spent nine weeks as number one in the United States—the longest run at the top of the American charts for a Beatles single. The single has sold approximately eight million copies and is frequently included on professional lists of the all-time best songs.
  • Smells like teen spirit : Smells Like Teen Spirit" is a song by the American rock band Nirvana, and the opening track and lead single from the band's 1991 breakthrough album NevermindTeen Spirit" was Nirvana's first and biggest hit, reaching number six on the Billboard Hot 100 and placing high on music industry charts all around the world in 1991 and 1992.The song was dubbed an "anthem for apathetic kids" of Generation XIn the years since Nirvana's breakup, listeners and critics have continued to praise "Smells Like Teen Spirit" as one of the greatest rock songs of all time.
  • Hotel California :Hotel California is an album released by the American rock band The Eagles in late 1976 (see 1976 in music). Hotel California was the Eagles' fifth album of original material and became a critical success and a major commercial hit; since its release in late 1976, it has sold over 16 million copies in the U.S. alone. The album was at #1 for eight weeks in early 1977 (non-consecutively), and included two tracks which became #1 hits as singles on the Billboard Hot 100: "New Kid in Town", on February 26, 1977, and "Hotel California" on May 7, 1977.Hotel California is one of the top 15 best-selling albums of all time in any category.

My Visit To The Pirate Bay of India ..




After reading this you must have thought i would be talking about a new Desi torrent website.But you are so wrong my friend ! I am talking about the Real Pirate Bay of India, Delhi to be precise.Give up ? I am talking about the Palika Bazaar of New delhi.Yes thats right.

I have been going to Palika market since i was 9 years old.At that time i never knew whats pirated stuff,what a grey market and how would u identify if its an original stuff or not .Everybody living in delhi must be knowing about this mart but those who dont know about it needs to know what stuffs we get in that market.And the Simple answer is Pirated,Second hand,Illegaly Imported and sometimes fake and useless stuffs.

AS soon as we enter the market the first thing we see are pirated softwares and imported stuffs.actually the majority of stuff in palika is made of pirated PC,console game and movie DVD and CDs and ofcourse Imported stuff at low price.While the minority consists of Cloth sellers and Food courts (they are just shops , i called them shops to make it sound a modern place ! )
.Its not a modern place its just an old style market which is a basement actually !


I went to Palika after 2 years so i did some queries...I asked for prices and what i found was that a Crysis PC game DVD was of : 280 INR ( Indian National Rupees) and btw its original cost is like 2,500 INR ! So thats the case up there.A mobile worth 12,000 ( N-73 ME ) was available for 9,500 INR .But i dont trust them seriously ! i have experienced lots of fake up there so its not worth but hey u can grab up a GEM called Apple I-phone !!! and that too for just 14,000 or even 12,500 INR if you are lucky ! Wondering why its so less ? Because its most probably a used piece or an imported piece from a place like Arab or even Japan or even CHina .Its common by the way .I-phone will be released in September in India but you will see some people in Delhi having those piece of beauty ! You can get the PS3 for just 14,000 INR from there ! And they have humogenous sale ! but remember no warranty or guarantee. Its your luck ! If it doesnt work , the seller wont take it back !

I saw every game DVD there, they had an amazing collection of games! it was so amazing to see sellers having whatever game we want,but i knew what would work and what wont bcoz i am a PRO buyer in palika ! and if u r not and thinking you would go there and buy costly stuffs for mere prices ..BEWARE ! Bcoz the probability is that if u buy 5 items from different shop 3 of them wont work ! and if u dont trust me then see for yourself and if all of them work , they wont last for long !!So i think buying any stuff from an original price seller is an important thing !

Well except for this, i ddint do anything there ! Oh wait, i saw some amazing T-shirts of LInkin Park,Rolling Stones,U2,50 cents,etc and WWE superstarts too but i dont think these T-shirts suite me now !

Well that was my trip to the Palika Bazaar there and i just wanna say that if u want great stuff at least price go there and DO ONE THING FOR SURE - Make the Seller check our item or ur CD before selling it to you because once its sold they wont take it back and then you would surely cry for your lost money !

My Birthday gift - Windows Vista Ultimate !






Note - Click on the Picture To Get a Better View.


That was the most exciting day of my "Computer" life. Before getting this i had my Windows XP computer fully customized to Windows Vista Ultimate.I was waiting to get Windows Vista since it arrived. I had my exams so i knew i wouldnt be successful so i didnt try asking about it.But after my exams, we went to Delhi and there the great thing happend to me . I was gifted Windows Vista Ultimate !







AS soon as i got hold of it , i installed it on my computer . I had to upgrade my ram to 2GB as without it Ultimate would have slowed down my pc too much .As soon as i installed it i was completely blown away by it.outstanding Welcome Screen,Amazing graphics,Shiny glossy icons,great sound waves..it completely mesmerised me.It has sooo many features that i still havnt checked em all !





When i didnt have the OS VISTA i used to read lot about it and obviously knew about Windows Dreamscene. And the first thing i installed was DreamScene :)
Now my Desktop looks so amazing with a video wallpaper!





The thing i enjoyed the most was Windows Switcher which switches Different Applications








And about The Addons, i was suprised by a brilliant game called INK BALL.Its so addictive! I think it seriously will replace the traditional Space Cadet Pinball for xp ( its no longer in vista now ).













Windows Firewall and Windows Defender take care of my PC well and i have faced no problems in updating Defender.











Multimedia Features include DVD maker,Movie Maker,Media Center,all new paint and many more. All Of them are so amazing and well scripted.Specially the Windows Media Center





Windows Update is pretty smooth too ! its very easy to use so i have no problem in that.The Search Tool is 100 times better than xp and its 100 times quicker.My internet Conncetion too faced no problems and My pc has no speed problems too like people keep yelling. Dont believe them. Vista ultimate runs smoother than anything on 2gb ram and 128 mb graphic card.




In the End, whatever people say about Windows Vista , I am proud to have this Vista. I truly Believe Windows xp should be immediately replaced by Windows Vista ( Especially Ultimate Version) . If you dont you would seriously miss the ' WOW' factor.
