iTs a BiRd, oH no iTs gOOgLe's V.P

meet Dr. Alan Eustace, Google's V.P for knowledge and the only man crazy enough to jump and free fall 135, 908feet. He set a world record today. I have just one word to describe him- 'BALLZ' if thats even a real word. It may not be a big deal to some until you remember that commercial airplanes fly most of their journey at 30,000 feet.

some call it technological advancement, but i find it particularly baffling that the world is becoming even more at peace with the idea of suspended Motherhoods. Last night i read on NBCnews.com website that two tech giants: Facebook & Apple have programs that allow female personnel to get paid for freezing their eggs. Yes! you read that right 'FREEZING EGGS'.

To put this in perspective, what this entails basically is that people are getting incentives to put career building ahead of child bearing. So say you work for a great company and you are looking to build a career by staying relevant to the company without the 'burden' of motherhood, both companies now offer up to $20,000 to women under the Fertility/Surrogacy benefits program of their individual companies.

I think the world is going mad a lot faster than it should. This constant need to do away with the natural order of things is becoming quite too much for me to bear. According to that NBC article, freezing eggs doesn't come cheap at about $10,000 per round and a $500 annual storage fee this whole endeavor seems to be a potential goldmine for the medical industry.

But here is my problem with this way of thinking, as the Millennials keep coming up with these 'bright' ideas i wonder sometimes if they ever stop to consider long term consequences, or if they realize that for as long as humans are involved anything could go wrong. soon some cotton wool brained scientist will come up with the idea of implanting human embryo in animals. 

I think this idea is stupid especially for women who have no challenges with conception or cancer, but then again it all kind of makes you wonder if freezing eggs isn't better than aborting babies career women never planned to have. 

The blessings of the Lord makes one rich but He adds no sorrow with it. God is the only inventor who creates fully aware of all possible consequence. Humans will never get to that point, the best we can do is fix consequences as they appear. While it may be convenient for career women to freeze their eggs and have long careers, you cannot deny the fact that the risks of fertilizing deformed eggs still exist or that there are crazy scientists who wont hesitate to experiment on humans.

Alas! something exciting to blog about.

Forget your ISP or Mobile Data service provider!!! 

Google is about to change the way we receive & use the internet. It is this out of the box approach to challenges that has made Google a global leader in search technology. Though the company may not be perfect it has managed to innovate amidst stiff competition and anti trust restraints.

Enter The Loon Project. A balloon based internet distribution service that literary thrives on Balloons floating in the Earth's stratosphere which allows internet access even in remote terrains that are extremely difficult to reach. This concept is a beautiful blend of Meteorology, Physics, and Technology.

I saw this video of the technology behind this innovation and i thought i should share it. Yes i sound like a geek right now, it may have to do with the fact that before i settled into entertainment fully i had an Information Technology background. I believe strongly that this technology should interest even the least tech savvy individual. Please let me know your thoughts after you have seen this video:

Bez- More You

>>Dagrin

Enough has been said about Dagrin the car crash and finally his death. I believe its very natural for people to say lots of positive things about the dead. But in all the comments i have read or heard about Dagrin's death there is one very common factor, the fact that Dagrin was a very likable person. If you had a very bad day that left you frowning all the way, a chance meeting with Dagrin would at least calm ur nerves simply cos he was always smiling plus his goat styled laughter was easily recognizable by all.

In such a short period his explosion was felt by all what if his career then lasted over 50yrs what would he have done?

In my opinion, I think for someone who survived that long after such an accident, Dagrin shouldn't have been kept at LUTH. For God's sake whatever happened to the Reddingtons and St. Nicholas's in this country. I think for some reason the medics may have been sloppy in some way. I do not wish to be insensitive to the pain felt by every one right now, but i just wonder, if Kanye could survive Jaw reconstruction after a more ghastly accident, and 50 did also wande coal did, would it have been too much to give Dagrin some better medical attention?

I realise nothing we can ever say or do can bring him back, but one thing is certain we won't have another Dagrin. I sincerely desire Eternal rest for Olaitan (Dagrin). Find below a freestyle by Dagrin over the pon pon pon beat. This is a clear picture of his kind of person off stage.
