5 Most Torturous Execution Methods in Ancient History June 3, 2009

The world may seem cruel today and many people believe the death penalty goes too far. But few people realize how different the moral standards of our ancestors were compared to ours. In ages past, the method of death was as integral as the death itself. Extremely severe punishments were given to deter serious crimes, treason, regicide, and other high-level atrocities.
But when you think about it, which side is really the one that is atrocious? Such is the blur between the line of distinction.
Regardless of morality, here is proof that there may be some fates that are worse than death. Here are the brief details of 5 the most torturous execution methods in ancient history.
Click here to read the full article for additional details and history of each method: The Five Most Painful Execution Methods in History
Note: Viewer discretion is advised.
-
Hanged, Drawn, and Quartered
“As explained in British Criminal Law2, first the prisoner is dragged on wooden frame to the site of his execution (drawn). Then he is hung repeatedly by the neck until almost dead and is released before the final moment – this is meant to act as pre-emptive torture. The executioner will then strap the naked prisoner down onto a rack (usually to a public audience) and perform the most gruesome part of the method. He is castrated and disemboweled on the spot, and his respective body organs (genitalia, entrails, and others) are set aflame in front of his very eyes. He would still be alive at that point and will be decapitated. His body parts would then be cut up in four pieces to be gibbeted (put on public display) in different parts of the country to deter future treason.”
-
CRUCIFIXION
“The victim’s hands are outstretched and nailed to the cross, either through the palms or wrists (differing ways existed).7 Sometimes the heels of the feet are were also nailed, which would have caused tremendous pain.8 The victims are then left to die on the cross, exposed to the blistering heat of the sun. Death usually occurred from sepsis, hypovolemic shock, dehydration, or from the pain itself. Asphyxiation9 also occurs since the victim isn’t able to draw air into his lungs due to the difficulty of inhaling, and he would have to draw support with his outstretched arms (or use his nailed feet), leading to increasing exhaustion. The process of death is very slow and painful, sometimes lasting for days.”
-
BRAZEN BULL
“First you were locked inside and a fire was set under the Brazen Bull, causing it to glow yellow hot. You are left to 
slowly roast within the device in agony. In addition to that, the head of the ox was built with a system of tubes and stops so when you screamed, the sounds would be manipulated to sound like an angry bull – hence the name. Your screams of agony would be amplified as you roasted and the smoke would rise in “spicy clouds of incense.” Not a pleasant way to go.”
-
IMPALEMENT
“Public torture and rape usually came before the actual execution. The victim would be tied up and a cut was made between the rectum and genitals, where a sharp pole with a blunt end was driven through. The blunt end ensured the 
damage to the body wouldn’t cause death too quickly by pushing important organs to the side. The other end of the stake came out of the upper half of the body, typically out of the sternum. A person can live for as many as three days as he is hoisted up in the air, suspended to die slowly in agony.”
-
SCAPHISM
“First you are stripped naked and tied inside a back to back pair of canoes (or a hollowed out tree trunk). You are force-fed honey and milk until you develop extreme diarrhea, causing an accumulation of feces inside the compartment in which you are trapped.
Your executioners will then proceed to rub honey on your body to attract even more insects, such as stinging bees. Hands, head, and feet will protrude out of the boat, for attracting hungry insects. Typically, you would be left to the burning sun or forced to float on a stagnant pond of water.
Some indigenous tribes used voracious flesh eating ants to carry out the execution on victims.
The pain would have been unimaginable, especially due to insects breeding within your own gangrenous flesh (including laying of eggs) as you succumbed to physical and psychological pain, diarrhea, delirium, nausea, dehydration, starvation, septic shock, and so on. Sometimes the force-feeding would be repeated to make sure you don’t die too soon, prolonging the suffering.”

Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in older men, right after lung cancer. But few people realize that when detected in its early stages, prostate cancer is quite manageable. The key to successful recovery is determining the specific stage in which the prostate cancer is in, which allows pathologists to figure out an accurate prognosis of the disease.
The stages of prostate cancer are classified according to the TNM (Tumor, Nodes, Metastasis) and the Gleason staging system.
To learn everything you need to know about how doctors use these systems to guage the spread and lethality of cancers, read this article – Understanding the Stages of Prostate Cancer.
Prostate cancer can be deadly, especially when it becomes metastatic. Therefore, it is highly important to determine the correct stage to receive the best treatment and for doctors to predict the prognosis.
Still confused? Visit this link to the website of the National Cancer Institute to learn more about what you need to understand about prostate cancer, such as the extremely important types of tests and treatments that work to classify the stages and more. Do not wait until it is too late. The sooner you visit your doctor and receive proper and frequent check-ups, the more preparation and time you will have to overcome prostate cancer in the event it shows up in the future. Make the healthy choice.

The Lion King Review – Classic Disney Movie June 3, 2009

Even to this day, The Lion King is one of the best examples of damn good animation that both kids and adults can enjoy. It seems like it was yesterday when it was released and started breaking records at the box office, but that was way back in 1994. Since then, the movie has been heralded as a true classic in animation.
Here is a classic Disney movie review of The Lion King:
After murdering Mufasa during a breath-taking wildebeest stampede (one of Disney’s most powerful scenes, deemed a classic) that he had set up, Scar makes Simba believe it was his fault for being the reason for the king’s demise. Unwilling to bear the shame and having the pressure of being next in line for the throne on his shoulders, Simba runs far away to escape his responsibility (and to save his own life). His life takes a drastic turn after two memorable characters, Timon and Pumbaa, save his life and help raise him with a new perspective – Hakuna Matata. Meanwhile, Scar has corrupted the kingdom and allowed the hyenas (the lions’ enemies) to roam free within their territory and hunt their food (now more scarce than ever). Does Simba have the strength to remember who he was, reclaim his rightful place as king, defeat his uncle Scar, and rescue his family from certain starvation?

Best Upcoming Xbox 360 Games in 2009 April 12, 2009

1 comment so far
These are the most anticipated Xbox 360 games coming out this year. Exclusive or non-exclusive, each has the potential to rock the video game industry.
Halo 3: ODST (Halo: Recon)
“Halo 3: ODST will be the latest addition to the Halo series, offering a different perspective to the gameplay in the science fiction universe. You will no longer control Master Chief. Instead, you are a lone Orbital Drop Shock Trooper, one of Earth’s most elite soldiers of the UNSC (they are known as the “Hell Jumpers”). Although you don’t have Master Chief’s reflexes, super strength, and combat awareness, you must battle the Covenant in the city of New Mombasa with all the skills you have – stealth included (but it is not strictly a stealth game).”
Batman: Arkham Asylum
“Batman: Arkham Asylum will be based on the long-time ‘comic mythos’ of the infamous Arkham Asylum, an iconic prison in the DC Universe. The story begins after Batman captures The Joker, following an attack he made on the Gotham prison. This leads to many sane convicts being sent to Arkham Asylum – enemies of the comic hero. The Joker then sets a trap for Batman within the prison, leaving him trapped and vulnerable to Gotham’s worst supervillains, all seeking cold vengeance against the caped crusader.”
Dragon Age: Origins
“Players will be able to choose from three base classes – Rogue, Warrior, or Mage, but you will have an individual ‘origin’ story that will affect the story of the entire game. Gameplay is in real time, similar to Mass Effect, and you will have the ability to pause and issue tactical commands to your party members, who are all major characters to the storyline. Your decisions in quests matter because a simple moral choice (which is more complicated than the beaten to death ‘good and evil’) can influence the way NPCs react to you. Certain rewards can only be attained if you make the right choices. And by right, I don’t mean morally.”
Mafia II
“The setting of Mafia II takes place in the 1940s and 1950s, in Empire City (based on New York City and San Francisco). Hand to hand combat will be smoother, the car chases and gun fights will be bigger, and the story will feel like a 
Hollywood crime drama epic. You assume the role of Vito Scaletta, an Italiancrime with his childhood friend, Joe Barbaro, and propelling his family dynasty to true wealth and power.” American (born to Sicilian family) with his ambitions set on rising through the ranks of organized
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is one of the greatest best-sellers of all time for PC, appealing to this generation. Featuring an engaging story, memorable characters (such as the legendary Captain Price), and highly dynamic war environments, there was no surprise it became the top selling game in the world in 2007.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will continue the modern setting and possibly follow up on the thrilling conclusion of the first game. Does it have what it takes to live up to the original and re-revolutionize the first person shooter genre? The online multiplayer mode itself cannot be missed. Be ready for it this holiday season of 2009. Remember, all dates are subject to change.

Classic 80s Movies – Transformers the Movie Review April 12, 2009
Posted by vikasreddyd in Entertainment.Tags: 80s classic movie, 80s movie review, classic movies, movie review, transformers, transformers the movie
1 comment so far
Transformers the Movie (1986) is one of the greatest classic movies of the eighties, when animation was on still on the rise to mainstream audiences (and arguably had better quality and darker themes). Not only is it a defining cinematic presentation of the franchise, the movie has one of the greatest metal soundtracks. Just watching the movie and listening to the music (timed perfectly with the action scenes) triggers some major nostalgia, especially if you were a kid growing up during the time.
When the movie was released in the 80s, it failed to achieve mainstream success. However, it is one of the most critically acclaimed animated cult movies, having a loyal fan base to this day.

Top 5 Upcoming PS3 Games of 2009
__________________
Enough time has passed so far in 2009 to know which PS3 games have the greatest potential to please the critics and gamers – and make some money in the process. After all, if a game doesn’t take a share of the video game industry, it can mean the death of the franchise.
Some of the best games are based on the power of the original – the foundation of the franchise. The upcoming games this year are highly anticipated and expected to bring something new to their respective genres. With the receding economy more obvious than ever, it’s good to see video game sales haven’t changed. I’ll be damned if they do.

5 Deadliest Killer Ant Species in the World
___________________
Few people know that ants have a real ability to kill and heavily influence the environment around them. They are one of the most successful species of organisms on the entire planet, having adapated to varying climates and locations in nearly all seven continents. Some have even evolved to develop wings.
The secret to success lies in numbers – huge numbers. Out of the 12,000 species of ants currently classified, these five make it to the top for being the deadliest killer ants in the world.
FIRE ANTS
“Fire ants (0.24 inches long) have been a widespread problem in the United States after they were accidentally introduced in the 1930s. Known for their large ant mound colonies and aggressive nature, they attack in swarms following pheromones released by the first ant’s sting. So if you are stung once, you are bound to get attacked by the entire colony if you can’t get away quick enough. Small animals such as birds and even larger mammals like newborn calves often become victims because they cannot escape in time before they are devoured en masse.”
ARGENTINE ANTS
“The Argentine ant (1/10 inch long) is highly social ant species, known for extensive organization of its colonies. In 
fact, the ants are so genetically similar that individual ants can walk into a range of nearby colonies without being killed for intrusion. Merged supercolonies are destructive, especially if near human settlements. The problem with Argentine ants is that they are among the world’s top 100 animal invaders, known for killing off competing ant species in non-native geographical areas, such as in Australia. In the article linked above, the scientists state that an Argentine ant supercolony thousands of miles wide can form across southern Australia if the native ants of that region have the same genetic makeup and behavior.“
SIAFU ANTS
“The ants march through the forests in groups of millions, eating anything that moves and severely impacting the local environment (even elephants run from them). The term “killer ant” usually applies to this species simply because of the magnitude of the colony sizes (over 20 million individuals). When in large transit, the ants travel in long columns on the forest floor, with the stronger class of ants on opposite sides flanking in ready position – jaws ready. They are so strong in fact, that you can tear the ant in two after it bit into your skin and its jaw will still be locked in position. In East Africa, emergency situations call for using the actual jaws of the Siafu ants as ’stitches’, sealing off open wounds.”
Bulldog Ants
“Even scarier is the numerous predatory skills they have compared to other ant species, such as excellent vision (they can spot and follow you from a meter away), highly painful stings that can cause anaphylactic shock in allergic people, and they are very aggressive to intruders, including humans. This combination makes them responsible for the deaths of people every year in Australia.“
Bullet Ants
“Bullet ants of South America are known to have the most painful sting of insects on the entire planet, rated at the highest of the Schmidt Pain Index at 4.0+. The name of the ant is derived from the intense 24-hour pain the venom from the stings cause. Bullet ants are also giants, ranging from 18 to 25 mm long (1 inch). The venom is highly neurotoxic, causing excruciating pain when injected into mammal smooth muscle. When attacked, these killer ants release a musky order, swarm together to defend against the intruders, and literally grab and sting them to death.“

The History of Easter: Centuries of Controversy
______________________
Easter is one of the most confusing holidays in the world, mostly because it’s hard to find a relation between bunny rabbits and decorating eggs and the Son of God. The truth is that Easter is one of the most religious holidays in the Christian calendar. It also holds the record for being the most controversial.
Easter commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ, three days after his death.
Easter has been around for centuries but it has gone three phases of controversies. It is currently going through its fourth phase now. To date, there has been no unified date to celebrate Easter. Different Church denominations have chosen different dates but in modern times it has been consolidated to fit two dates for two sides of the globe.
Want to know more about the true history of Easter, the symbolism behind the rabbit and the eggs, and how centuries of controversy have made the holiday more obscure than ever?
The Easter bunny represents the growing fertility of the Vernal Equinox during springtime, where vegetation and flowers flourish. It is also the season when they perform their wild mating dances. This new exuberance of life on Earth parallels to the victory Christ had over sin when he was resurrected three days after his death.
Eggs also represent fertility but there is a much deeper significance. Eggs were not allowed to be eaten during Lent by Catholics, explaining why there were so many on Easter (when Lent ends). The practice of coloring eggs and placing them in baskets for children to find became very popular.

Snake Bite Treatment: Life Saving Steps and Myths
_______________________
Not all of us are medical professionals. Suppose you get bitten by a rattlesnake right now in the middle of nowhere and you have a couple of friends with you. Chances are, none of you guys would have a clue what to do and what not to do to keep you alive.
Over the years, certain ‘unorthodox’ methods such as manually sucking out the venom have been shot down to be medical myths. But it is simply one out of many methods that have no inhibitory effect on the snake venom and instead, end up doing more harm than good.
The idea of snake bite treatment is to use methods that are proven to work and not endanger the bitten victim instead. While there are trivial things such as the rule that you should not drink alcohol (since it causes vasodilation of the blood vessels, increasing the rate at which the venom passes through the bloodstream), there are many other practices to consider – including certai myths you might not know about.
According to Science Daily, atleast 100,000 people worldwide are killed by bites from venomous snakes annually, with double of that statistic permanently disabled as a result of the venom. To fight this problem, life saving snake bite treatment steps must be learned and all the medical myths (practices once used) must be done away with for the safety of everyone.

Giant Insects – Japanese Giant Hornets, the Killer Insects of Japan
There are some pretty scary things living on planet Earth, usually the bigger ones having the bad reputation. The problem is that there’s a completely different realm of things to be scared of.
When I say “scared of” I mean you should turn around and run in the opposite direction if you come anywhere too close. I’m talking about giant insects. Typically huge insects are not deadly to humans but there are certain varieties of wasps and hornets that make the use of venom in their stings. This venom is extremely potent, depending on the type of species. The Japanese Giant Hornet (also called the Asian Giant Hornet) is the record holder for the largest hornet in the world.
A single one of these insects can be fatal to an adult, especially if there is an allergic reaction. If you have been stung once before by one, the chance of anaphylactic shock is much higher if you get stung again. This hornet’s sting contains venom much more potent than typical wasps, bees, and hornets of other species. The stinger is a ¼ of an inch long – that is the size of the tip of a pencil!

But before you do, be sure to watch how only 30 of these can destroy a colony of 30,000 European honey bees in a single descisive battle. Note: The Japanese Giant Hornet’s execution method of choice – decapitation by mandibles.

Davone Bess: Dolphin WR On a Mission From Hawaii to Miami – Game Sports Realm
_____________
Davone Bess at Hawaii
“Davone Bess has endured a long and difficult road to make it to the NFL. Growing up with a single mother, losing his football scholarship to Oregon State, and doing time at a juvenile center were not enough to keep Davone down.“
Davone Bess: ““I didn’t get drafted. And it was frustrating. But I didn’t give up. I knew whatever team I was going to, I was going to give my all and give my best. I set specific goals for myself when Miami signed me. They called me in the fifth round and I thought that was going to be my round. But they said they didn’t have any other picks and had to use their picks on, like, a lineman or a running back or something. So I was, like, OK.
Then right after the draft my phone was ringing off the hook. Like 12 teams called me after the draft but I had actually verbally committed to coming to Miami during the seventh round. So I ended up saying, ‘I’m just going to go to Miami.’ I did know the situation and I felt this was the best spot for me to come in and contribute.”

Miami Dolphins: Top 5 Offseason Needs for 2009 – Part II
For Part I, click here.
Ted Ginn is primed for a breakout season for 2009.
“Miami’s top 5 needs this offseason include NT, C, DB, LB and RT if free agent V.Carey leaves. After a strong draft last year, Miami will look to further solidify the offensive line and the defensive front 7. Dolphin wideouts are young and talented, leaving this area of need less urgent than initially thought.”
“The advantage of playing with Pennington is that Ginn gets to work on his areas of weakness exclusively, such as short to mid-range routes and reading defensive coverages. This will only make Ginn a more complete, dangerous weapon when Chad Henne does comes in. Besides entering his 3rd season, the “breakout” year for most WR’s, Ginn for the first time will enter the offseason with stability at the QB position so fans should expect great thing from Ted next year.”

Miami Dolphins: Top Offseason Needs for 2009: Part I
J Peezy, the heart and soul of the Miami defense.
“Miami spent last year upgrading the trenches. Look for the same this year as holes remain along the offensive and defensive interiors. Miami’s approach to it’s own free agents will play a part in dictating the route Miami takes during the NFL Draft and the NFL Free Agency period.”
Well it’s been a great run for Miami following the aftermath of the Superbowl. Even though their season was cut short after the loss to Ray Lewis and the Baltimore Ravens, the offseason is the next opportunity for the team to identify its core strengths and weaknesses.

Ted Ginn: Speed Kills – Game Sports Realm.com
Players can't even catch this guy's shadow.
“Ted Ginn Jr., one of the fastest players in the NFL, has made great strides in his 2nd yr and now stands poised to make the next leap in his 3rd yr as one of the elite WR’s of the NFL.”
Written by Sidd Reddy, one of the main sports writers of Game Sports Realm.
_____________
The Miami Dolphins is the team to follow for 2009 because of the superior acceleration it has on the field with the help of Ginn, as well as Chad Pennington’s expertise with his passes. Together they make a good team but the full extent of the partnership depends on how well they can bounce back after losing to the Baltimore Ravens in the 2008 Playoffs.
Ted Ginn Jr. is young and Chad Pennington is still new to the team. The Dolphins have made a vast improvement compared to last year. All that remains to be seen is if they have the ability to follow through.

Online MMORPGs don’t get much respect because of that monthly payment. Come on, 15 dollars isn’t that bad. You have 31 days to get 15 bucks. Some kids get a daily allowance close to that, more or less. I never got an allowance. My middle school days were filled with getting deep in the Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh trading cards business.
Charizard was one of the best Pokemon cards in ye olden days.
In high school me and my brother saved our two bucks of daily allowance for lunch for a few years and added it to our funds to buy a PS3, at a bargain price around the time of its release.
Upgrade.
But I digress; the rewards were great. And part of our Pokemon blood money went to paying for the subscription for Star Wars Galaxies (pre CU), World of Warcraft, EvE Online, and so on for like four years but we never had enough to pay for all months successively.
One of the best games I ever played on the internet, aside from Neopets, is Travian. It’s a browser game that takes some serious strategic skill not just in the game but in real life. You are working together with real players from all around the world and fighting real enemies. Players can buy gold with money (using PayPal) for added bonuses to resources gathering rate, upgrades, and others, which are important if you want to remain in top contending alliances. It’s the survival of the fittest. Survival isn’t easy depending on where you are in the four quadrants of the game server.
I played on the S3 server on Travian.com from Fall 2007 to the summer of 2008. The strategy involved to winning the World Wonder race takes serious skill, PR relations, time investment, and patience. I learned how to time 10-20 attacks of thousands of troops from veterans of the game (people who played more than one server) within a fraction of a second, because the guy I’m attacking somewhere in Europe or the US was trying to time his reinforcements to kill all my waves. You have to be precise.
Paying with PayPal gets you gold, which can buy bonuses such as being able to build two buildings at the same time.
The other part of Travian was communication with other players. If you didn’t have Skype, you missed out on a lot. Backstabbings, corruption, betrayal, martyrdom, damn, everything happens over a year. I’ll post all about it in the future. Just go to the official Travian forums one day and read some of the drama topics. Travian is one of the best online MMORPGs out there. I call it an MMO because it is massive and it involves thousands of players trying to outsmart each other and forming alliances to get a piece of the World Wonder in the end.
But I digress that digression,
Sam Kothalanka, my older brother’s friend and one of the writers on my website, Game Sports Realm, understands that there’s a whole lot of s**t involved when you need to make money because you can become too committed. That’s why there are free MMORPGs. Runescape is one of the best, Travian is an award winning text browser game, and there are other pretty good online free MMORPGs. Dungeon Runners is as polished as a game can get, with smooth graphics and seamless gameplay that reminds of World of Warcraft.
Dungeon Runners has that WoW look but it's the real deal.
But here it is. It’s one of the best free MMOs out there and our website Game Sports Realm has a little preview. Click here to see some screenshots and a gameplay video taking you straight to the action.
In the future Game Sports Realm will have a full review of Travian and some of the depth of its gameplay. Historical stories, wars, backstabbings, betrayals, and drama included.
