Tokyo’s flying girl

Have you ever dreamt to fly? Leaving high-pressure and tight life in campus… Japanese girl Natsumi Hayashi was a one person as like us dreaming to fly until she found a way-out. How is it possible, does she really levitate?

First of all, this cute girl is professional artist and photographer who living with two cats. One day, she happened to take a picture of man leaping, and she felt that he suspended in mid-air. She named the picture “Today’s levitation”. Soon Natsumi Hayashi started posting her levitating photos at her own photo blog and facebook, which was previously saying to viewers about ordinary girl’s ordinary life. Then, Natsumi started posting self-levitating-portraits, the results are amazing, visitors to her blog has become thousands; also bring her popularity.

I honestly hope that you did not take expectation to fly against the earth gravitational pull. And for the facts: People do not levitate. Natsumi Hayashi does not levitate. She just takes the photographs and beautiful photographs at that.

How she take these levitating pictures. It is nothing to do with invisible wires and Photoshop. It is very simple and graceful process: she leaps. She takes-out her camera in the Tokyo streets and looking for inspiration. Once she found, she starts leap until find perfect and realistic picture. Sometimes she claims to jump hundreds of times. By doing so, she manages to share a sense of mysterious wonder that made her work much appreciated to the world.

Once she said in “Japanese times” newspaper about her pictures “I wanted to express myself in the picture as someone free from earth’s gravitational pull. I also want to feel as I am not tied to many things and able to be my true self”.

Ongoing days she more posting her realistic and perfect leaping pictures, on her website. You can read of her interview from “My modern metropolis”, “Japanese times”, and visit her blog; also hopefully you will be really surprised by her levitating pictures.

About Mongolia

Have you ever heard about Mongolian People’s Republic? Mongolia is an independent which declared independence in 1921 from China, democratic and landlocked country located in North-Central-Asia between Russian Republic and People’s Republic of China. Approximately, Mongolia have 2.5 million population and 1.5 million square kilometer area. Topographically, Mongolia is a plateau averaging 1.560 meters above than sea level, which three basic mountain systems are superimposed known as Altai Massif, Gobi-Altai, and Khangai Mountains.

The climate is extremely continental modified by altitude, which a average annual temperature is -25°C to +20°C, precipitation is low, ranging from 100 to 400 mm per annum, mostly raining in July to September.

Much the most important form of land use is the raising of domestic livestock including cattle, horses, sheep, goats and camels, although settled agriculture, especially the cultivation of dwarf varieties of wheat, is gaining importance in economic. Industrial development and related activities such as coal-mining, mineral extraction and generation of power are confined mainly to the region around capital city of Ulan Bator and northwards to the Russian border. Traditional daily food is included with a soup, and grilled sheep, beef meats prepared in variety of fashions, may accompany with side dishes of carrots, cabbage, potatoes and other vegetables.

Domestic pollution like air pollution may become serious issue in certain heavily populated areas, in the Tuul River around Ulaanbaatar city.

Mongolia is a rapidly developing and mysterious country, although the population is low now, it is increasing rapidly. With this increase, there is no doubt that industrial development, mineral exploitation and intensive forms of agriculture are increasing.

A Missed Call

The practice of "beeping" or "missed calling" between mobile phone users! Beeping is simple: A person calls a mobile telephone number and then hangs up before the mobile's owner can pick up the call. If the beeper's name and number have been programmed into the recipient's mobile, then the recipient will see the beeper's name on the call log as a missed call. The missed call is often intentional; the beeper has sent a signal to the recipient without saying a word or typing a character. Better yet, sending a beep is absolutely free!

Missed calls have become in some way, part of society. Most beeps are requests to call back immediately, but they can also send a pre-negotiated instrumental message as “Where are you?” or a sign such as “I’m thinking of you”, “I’m down waiting”, “Come fast”, “It's time we leave”. Sometimes it’s taken to the zenith. For example a couple madly in loves sent this message to their lover “Your missed call is the beat of my heart... so please keep my heart alive love”.

This cost-saving behaviour has blossomed so dramatically in the 21st century. People have actually mastered the art of the missed call. It’s analogous to how people have mastered the art of text messaging—they are so perfect they can type out a message with their eyes wide shut. Similarly people simply look at their cellphone screen and as soon as they understand that the call is connected they press the red button and wait for the desired response to take place. Their timing being perfect, just like that of a tennis player getting the perfect forehand winner.

So this “missed calling” thing will soon create a revolution in telecom department. The idea being to communicate without spending units to call or to send a text message. And today 25% of mobile traffic in India is due to missed calls. Yes its true. A known fact.

This phenomenon is common trend among the youth, spreading like fire. Go ahead and become a part of this soon to be revolution!
