The keepers managed to rescue the worker and brought him out of the exhibit, Biswajit said.

While waiting for the ambulance, the zoo veterinarians attended to him but Nordin had succumbed to his wounds, he added.

Quantum of solace (2008)..




'Quantum of Solace' continues the high octane adventures of James Bond from 'Casino Royale'. Picking up literally days where the previous film left off, after being betrayed by Vesper, the woman he loved, 007 fights the urge to make his latest mission personal. Having captured Mr. White, and in pursuing his determination to uncover the truth, Bond and 'M' interrogate Mr. White who reveals the organisation which blackmailed Vesper to steal Bond's casino winnings is far more complex and dangerous than anyone had imagined.

Forensic intelligence links an MI6 traitor to a bank account in Haiti where a case of mistaken identity introduces Bond to the beautiful but feisty Camille, a woman who has her own vendetta. Camille leads Bond straight to Dominic Greene, a ruthless business man and major force within the mysterious criminal organisation known only as 'Quantum'.

On a mission that leads him to Austria, Italy and South America, Bond discovers that Greene, conspiring to take total control of one of the worlds most important natural resources, is forging a deal with the exiled General Medrano. Using his associates in the organisation, and manipulating his powerful contacts within the CIA and the British government, Greene promises to overthrow the existing regime in a nameless Latin American country, giving General Medrano control of the country in exchange for a seemingly barren piece of land which is, however, a main source of the South American water supply. In a minefield of treachery, murder and deceit, Bond allies with old friends in a battle to uncover the truth. As he gets closer to finding the man responsible for the betrayal of Vesper, 007 must keep one step ahead of the CIA, the terrorists, and even 'M' herself, to unravel Greene's sinister plan and stop Quantum from getting its way.

it's a cool movie guyz... Hav you watc it?

Always remember those who served....

In the days when ice cream sundar cost much less, a 10 year old boy entered a hotel coffee shop and sat at a table. a waitress put a glass of water infront of him..

'How much is an ice cream sundae?' he asked

'Fifty-cents,' replied the waitress.

The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and studied the coins in it.

'Well, how much is a plain dish of ice cream?' he inquired.

By now more people are waiting for a table and the waitress was growing impatient.

'Thirty-five cents,' she brusquely replied.

The little boy again counted his coins.

'I'll have the plain ice cream,' he said.

The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on the table and walked away. the boy finished the ice cream, paid the cashier and left. When the waitress came back, she began to cry as she wiped the table. There placed neatly beside the empty dish, were a 10 cent and a 5 cent coins.......

As you can see, he couldn't have the sundae, because he had to have enough left to leave her a tip.

The cleaning Lady..

hi, i've received this email from my friend.... yeah juz wanna share with u guyz...



During my second month of college, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student and had breezed through the questions untill I read the last one:

'What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?'
Surely this was some kind of a joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, darked-haired amd in her 50's, but how would I Know her name?

I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Just before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our quiz grade.

'Absolutely,' said the professor. 'In your careers, you will meet many people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say hello.'

I've never forgotten that lesson. I also learned her name was Dorothy.
