Exploration: Captain’s Log (Translated Transcript): Earth Date 2^nd February, 2020

We have been in uncharted territory for seventy days now, and have entered a new Galaxy as logged thirty days ago. This galaxy is now known as the Derekrion Galaxy, after my Navigator who pointed out the new galaxy. I believe that this will be a perfect opportunity for exploration on the Exploration (I feel so happy for using that pun. You hate me, but I don’t care for you, do I?).

The Knowledge Team has discovered a star system with eight planets. It has been logged as the Larbantos system because Worker Larbantos was the one to bring it to Head of Department Ishkhalmar’s attention. He, in turn, brought it to my attention. The third planet, according to Ishkhalmar and Larbantos, shows considerable potential, which somehow went without the Government’s notice. That is probably because of the large distance between Arkhalmanosk and this system. Life has been indicated, therefore we will send a message down to the planet in all language forms. I see no point, since it is uncharted territory, this life may have a different language form from what we know, but the Government has a law stating that we have to communicate before transporting down. We’ll see how this goes.

“Greetings, life form. We wish to communicate. Please comply.”

Sounds a little blunt. How about, “Greetings. We come in peace. We wish nothing but to communicate with your honourable community. We are ready to send down a team of seven Arkhalmanosks to learn about your culture and community, while honouring whatever policies you wish. We are ready to teleport whenever you are ready to receive us. Warmest regards, Renevorkh: Captain of the Spaceship Exploration.”

Much better.

Exploration: Captain’s Log (Translated Transcript): Supplemental

The message has been sent, but we have received nothing. We’ve traveled halfway around this planet at standard orbit speed, and no answer. What has happened to this planet?

We see a considerable number of spaceships with weird symbols on them. I suspect a language, but after teleporting one of these spaceships on board, Head of Culture, Galmanormus cannot recognize these symbols. They are of many types. One seems to have some symbols repeating, so they mean something. A certain phonetic maybe. All this can be seen under the Cultural log of Planet 3: Larbantos. I think there may have been several life forms on this planet(intelligent life forms, I mean), or several species of one life form, or several cultures of one life form. Whatever it may be, space travel seems to be achieved by them. Judging by the number of spaceships here, it was achieved a good amount of time ago.

However, these spaceships are too small to contain any life form that can achieve such tasks. Conclusion: They were unmanned. They were orbiting the planet, like us, but unmanned. Orbiting the same planet. Inference: Satellites, Conclusion: The life on this planet was an intelligent, civilized race.

On these satellites, we see rectangular images with pictures on them of different colours. Probably the equivalent of our flags. Inference: They needed something to identify groups of people of different cultures. Conclusion: There were several cultures. But this is just one planet. No other planets in this system show any signs of life. Conclusion: Many cultures of one life form.

I remembered when I was a commander in the Seventh Lignatish War, Year of Barald, a ship had come. It was over a thousand days ago, but that’s what started this mission. A stray spaceship had been found in the space surrounding my home planet, Slignith 7, which the Government failed to identify. The rectangular symbol on it was identical to the one on the satellite we brought in. That was most certainly an incredible coincidence. It has exactly fifty, five-pointed, white figures in a smaller blue rectangle in the top left, with stripes of red and white across the rest of the rectangle. I looked again at the satellite, looking for a symbol with the following four symbols on it. I have drawn them in the written log corresponding to this one.

NASA

As we can see, the second and fourth symbols are identical. It is the written form of a language. I am absolutely sure of it. It may not correspond to our language, but I’m sure as hell going to try.

I was up late yesterday taking pictures of the rest of the satellites. The language form has a lot of different symbols, so I segregated them into a few sections. It was backbreaking work, and I could only finish Part 1 of Larbantian. Written log contains Part 1.

This planet is intriguing. No signs of a life form are there, but a life form lived here. There was definitely life on this planet.

Don’t need any space equipment. As of now, the planet has the general atmospheric composition as Arkalmanic atmosphere, which is extremely convenient.

Larbantos will be getting a huge load of publicity back home. I wonder whether this has reached Arkhalmanosk?

Hello, dear readers. Just a bit of information:

I’ve been working on a story, and I wish to share it little by little. I’ll be posting it here chapter by chapter. Maybe once a week, maybe once a month? Whatever it is, I’ll be posting the first chapter shortly.

“Larbantos” is a word I made up. It’s a name, so don’t be confused.

Thanks.

I’ve looked over the past few blogs and cringed at each one of them. What was I thinking with this story? What kind of language is that? What stupidity made me do this? I was but a little kid at the time of writing those, and they are truly embarrassing. Now, I am a little older. My vocabulary, along with my body, has grown, and I know how to write good stuff. Maybe.

I’m pretty sure I’ll come here again sometime next year and think to my self, What the heck? But for now, this is it.

I write for myself, and those who read it can read it at their pleasure. If you don’t like the matter, leave a comment. If there are some better words for me to use in some places, leave comment. If I made a grammatical or spelling error, leave a comment. If you find a better way to express something, leave a comment. If you differ from my point of view, leave a comment, and we can have a little debate of our own. I’m here to improve, not show my superiority. Not that I have much of that … but you get my meaning.

So, what will you get here? Whatever I see fit. Whatever I want to write. You read what I write and you give feedback.

A variety of essays will be posted here: instances from my day, essays about something that impresses me or makes me angry, and an occasional story.

So, dear reader, I implore you, read. I hope you’ll enjoy yourself.

We all regard video games as a way to spend free time. But our parents have different views such as, “Games are making you ignore studies,” and “Games are making you dumb and anti-social.”

The negative points of playing video games are known by everyone everywhere, but did you think that there are positive points to video games? In fact, video games can actually make you smarter!

Before we continue it is important to note that too much of anything is bad. Even water. Seriously, water toxication actually exists. The things said in the rest of the article are only true if used in moderation. I’m not talking about video game addiction.

With that being said, let’s continue.

There have been many studies that have proven that video games actually do make you smarter. One study held in the Max Planck Institute had people play Super Mario ’64 for 30 minutes a day for two months. After these two months, the studies showed an increase in grey matter in areas associated with memory, strategic planning, and fine motor skills of the hands. They are actually using video games as therapy for disorders affecting these areas.

Surprisingly, action games can increase attention to detail in individuals. This is better explained in the YouTube video “Can Video Games Make You Smarter?” by AsapSCIENCE. This article is based on this video.

There are also many educational video games. They help in the education of both young and old. Examples include Mojang‘s most recent Minecraft: Education Edition which is the most loved among students.

There are even video games that may help children with dyslexia read more effectively. In one study by J.D Gabrieli, dyslexic children who played regular video games were shown to read faster and more accurately than the ones who did not.

Other studies show improvements in eyesight. Not only can gamers read smaller fonts, but they also have an easier time differentiating levels of grey. Better practised action gamers were 58% better at seeing fine differences in contrast than the people who do not play video games.

Video games have improved memory in the elderly with special brain teasing video games. These specially designed video games have slowed the aging process of the brain by 7 years.

Video games can help you focus more. This is also better explained in AsapSCIENCE’s video mentioned earlier.

As advancement in medicine occurs, surgeries are being completed remotely. This has many parallels with video games because it has a screen and a remote control. Studies have also shown that surgeons with previous exposure to video games showed less errors and faster completion of surgeries than those without.

There you go: playing video games will make you a better surgeon! Tell that to your parents.

Of course these skills are only useful if you use them, which you can’t if all you do is play video games. So enjoy your video games, but in a controlled time and go outside occasionally and explore diversity, because that’s how you’ll win at the game of life.

@Mod(modid=Generic.MODID, name=Generic.MODNAME, version=Generic.MODVER) //Tell forge “Oh hey, there’s a new mod here to load.”
public class Generic //Start the class Declaration
{
//Set the ID of the mod (Should be lower case).
public static final String MODID = “generic”;
//Set the “Name” of the mod.
public static final String MODNAME = “Generic Mod”;
//Set the version of the mod.
public static final String MODVER = “0.0.0”;

@Instance(value = Generic.MODID) //Tell Forge what instance to use.
public static Generic instance;

Thank You for watching my videos in Advance and have a good day!

The Video Competition is ON!!!

I have published the video on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlfuE_jMXY0

LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE!!!

It was the Biology class in school when it happened.

I sit alone on my desk, next to a wall. Sometimes I just lean on the wall. I was doing exactly that when our biology teacher, Vandana Ma’am called out, “who is into video making and editing?”

Just for the heck of it, I put up my hand. “O.K., there is a competition for you, come here,”

At that moment I said to myself, “Phas Gaye Yaar…”  I went over to her table. She had a paper with something written on it. She told me that it was a link and told me to copy it. “What?” I said to myself, “copy a  link?”

It was www.lpi.ursa.edu/humansinspaceart/challenge

when I got home, I saw that it was an INTERNATIONAL competition.

 

 

 

Now, I am almost done and you can see the video on YouTube on the 30th of November.

 
Thanks,

ABU.

Have you ever seen the X-men movies?

What would you be able to do if you were a mutant?

This is my view…

 

My codename would be Arshinator. My awesomeness would probably show that I am worthy of that name.

My powers would be Telekinesis, that is the power to control all kind of stuff, and the power to turn into any sort of animal. ANY sort of animal.

This would seriously drive fear into the hearts of my enemies. I could assemble pieces of metal into a robot at the drop of a hat. I could create bullets the same way.

But none of this exists. I am doing this blog for the heck of it.

Goodbye

Dear readers,

In this post, I make an extremely IMPORTANT Announcement, SO LISTEN UP!

My last book was completely a mess, so, I’ve decided to write another book. This book is about a superhero. I have finished three chapters and have no intention to trash it.

I walked into the grove,
Which had the smell of Mangoes,
The aroma was sweet,
I looked up to see, The Ripe mangoes to eat.

A farmer came along,
Singing a song,
And told me to sing along,
So I said to him,'Hang on!'

'I don't know your song,
Just run along,'
As I walked out of the grove,
which had the sweet smell of Mangoes.
