Amazing Facts!!!

---A huge rock in a village of Al-Hassa region, SAUDI ARABIA raises 11 cms from the ground level once in a year during the month of April and stays elevated for about 30 minutes!!!

They say that 17 years ago, one mujaheed was shot dead behind this rock as he was hidden there. This encounter happened in the month of April 1989. You can see the fresh blood stains on the rock. Most surprisingly, when the rock raises from the ground, these stains become darker, fresher and wet. Local residents tried to wipe off the stains several times, but after some time it appears again on the rock automatically...

Isn't it astounding?

Have a look....

Albert Einstein Biography

-------- ALBERT EINSTEIN-------

Albert Einstein is one of the most notable and influential scientists of the twentieth century. Although he became known as a genius of science and gained considerable fame later in life, as a child he was slow in learning to speak, and had a rebellious nature towards the conventional styles of learning at school, which left many teachers to believe he would amount to little. Inspired by a compass, his "sacred little geometry book", and classical music, his interest in science and mathematics grew and by the age of sixteen he was writing his first research science paper, and attempting to skip the last few years of high school to enter the Swiss institute of Technology. He failed the entrance exam but set a precedent in his life for thinking outside of the box and challenging the rules. His most famous discovery is the theory of relativity, E=MC2, which overturned Isaac Newton's laws by explaining the relation of energy and mass as a consequence of space and time. First introduced in a 3-page paper in 1905, the theory was so revolutionary it couldn't be proven until more advanced technology was available years later.

Born in Germany and raised in the Jewish faith, Einstein strongly opposed injustices of race and religion and often lent himself to the American civil rights movement and the efforts of the Zionist movement to preserve and cultivate the Jewish faith. He was instrumental in setting up the Hebrew University of Israel and was even invited to become Israel's second president, which he declined. Above all else Einstein maintained a non-nationalistic pacifist belief and urged for the disarmament of all nations and the formation of a one-world government. Often credited as the creator of the atom bomb, Einstein merely wrote a letter to President Roosevelt warning of Germany's possible use of nuclear weapons and was actually barred from participating in the United States' development of the atom bomb.

Albert Einstein is not only a world-renowned scientist who left an indelible mark on the world but also an icon of popular culture whose name and image have come to represent genius and intellect.

Rolls Royce Loan

A businessman walks into a bank in San Francisco and asks for the loan officer. He says he is going to Europe on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $7,000. The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of security for such a loan.

So the businessman hands over the keys to a Rolls Royce parked on the street in front of the bank. Everything checks out, and the bank agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan. An employee drives the Rolls into the bank's underground garage and parks it there.

Two weeks later, the businessman returns, repays the $7,000 and the interest, which comes to $19.67. The loan officer says, "We are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little confused. While you were away, we checked you out and found that you are a multimillionaire. What confuses us is why would you bother to borrow $7,000?"

The businessman replied, "Where else in San Francisco can I park my car for two weeks for $20 bucks?"

The Manager's Wish

A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp. They rub it and a Genie comes out. The Genie says, “I’ll give each of you just one wish” “Me first! Me first!” says the admin. clerk. “I want to be in the Bahamas, driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.” Poof! She’s gone. “Me next! Me next!” says the sales rep. “I want to be in Hawaii,relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life.” Poof! He’s gone. “OK, you’re up,” the Genie says to the manager. The manager says, “I want those two back in the office after lunch.”

Moral of the story: Always let your boss have the first say.
