<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. In 1993, Matthew Perry pitched NBC a sitcom he had co-written about a group of twentysomethings called Maxwell’s House. The network turned him down because they already had a similar TV show, Friends, in the works.<br />2. Before settling on Friends, other titles producers considered were Friends Like Us, Six of One, Across the Hall, Once Upon a Time in the West Village, and Insomnia Cafe.<br />3. Originally the show was going to focus on just four characters: Monica, Ross, Rachel, and Joey. Phoebe and Chandler were going to be supporting characters.Also, Monica and Joey were originally intended to be the main couple on the show.<br />4. Ellen DeGeneres turned down the role of Phoebe.<br />5.In the early stages of development, the writers considered making Chandler gay.<br />6.“Shiny Happy People” by R.E.M. was the original choice for the theme song. It was used in the pilot.The show was still called Friends Like Us in the pilot.<br />7.The frame around the peephole originally had a mirror in it. It was accidentally broken by a crew member, but because it still looked good, they decided to leave it there.<br />8.The iconic orange couch in Central Perk was found by a set designer in the basement of the Warner Bros. Studios.<br />9.In the first couple of episodes, Monica and Rachel’s apartment number was No. 5. This was changed in later episodes to No. 20 because the producers noted that 5 corresponded to an apartment on lower floor.Chandler and Joey’s apartment number was originally No. 4 and was changed No. 19 to reflect the change to Monica and Rachel’s apartment number.<br />10. “I’ll Be There for You” was co-written by Friends producers David Crane and Marta Kauffman, along with Phil Solem and Danny Wilde, of The Rembrandts.In 1995, the song was No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay chart for eight weeks.<br />11.The full names of the characters are:<br />• Chandler Muriel Bing<br />• Rachel Karen Green<br />• Ross Eustace Geller<br />• Monica E. Geller (we never learn what the E stands for)<br />• Joseph Francis Tribbiani Jr.<br />• Phoebe Buffay (she never knew her middle name since she had never seen her birth certificate)<br />12.Season 2 is the only season without a Thanksgiving episode.That year, “The One with the List” served as the Thanksgiving episode.<br />13.Jennifer Aniston has stated that she hated the now-iconic “Rachel” haircut.<br />14.Courteney Cox was the only cast member not to get an Emmy nomination for her work on the show.<br />15.Reportedly, Christina Applegate was cast as Amy Green for the Season 9 Thanksgiving episode after Reese Witherspoon was unavailable to reprise her role as Jill Green.Christina won an Emmy for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series for the episode.<br />16.Bruce Willis guest starred on the show for free.While filming the movie The Whole Nine Yards, Matthew Perry made a bet with his co-star Willis that if the film were to open at No. 1 at the box office on its opening weekend, then Willis would have appear on Friends for free. (Willis was already scheduled to appear on the show.)<br />The movie opened at No. 1, and Willis donated the money he earned from Friends to charity.<br />17.Gunther was not originally a speaking part; the actor, James Michael Tyler, got the role as an extra because he knew how to work an espresso machine.James was working at a coffee shop when he got the role, and he kept the job for the first four seasons of Friends.<br />18.The refrigerator in Monica’s apartment actually worked. It was filled with water and drinks for the cast and crew.<br />19.In reality, Joey’s white dog statue belonged to Jennifer Aniston. It had been given to her by a friend as a good-luck gift.<br />20.During its run, the show released two soundtracks.Two soundtracks were released after the show ended: Friends, The One with All the Party Music EP (2004) and Friends: The Ultimate Soundtrack (2005).<br />21.During the first season of the show, each cast member earned $22,500 per episode. By the end of the series they each made a $1 million an episode.<br />22.The final episode was watched by 52.46 million viewers and is the fourth most-watched television series finale in U.S. history.</span><br />

Mark and 3 of his roommates created Facebook while attending Harvard University and launched the site on February 4, 2004 from their college dorm room. Forbes Magazine named Mark “the world’s youngest self-made billionaire” being worth an estimated $1.5 billion due to his creation of the popular website. </p></li><li> <h3>First Investor <p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/webupon/2008/05/27/170145_2.jpg" alt="" /><br /></p></h3> <p> This is 41 year old American entrepreneur and Co-founder of Pay Pal Peter Thiel, who was the first person to invest in Facebook. It’s said his original investment in the social networking site in June 2004 was about $500,000 and as far as I know Peter still owns shares in that site. </p></li><li> <h3>A Country That Doesn’t Allow Facebook<br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/webupon/2008/05/27/170145_3.jpg" alt="" /><br /></h3> <p> I found this fact kind of interesting but also weird. Syria security was concerned to stop a spam campaign that used Facebook to promote false teaching to children about religion and war. Basically most articles I have read claim the country of Syria is afraid terrorist groups and so on have much easier times getting to their children on the social site. All I can say to this is in a way I understand but I’m glad I don’t live in a country that bans what social sites I can visit. </p></li><li> <h3>$12.5 Million Investor<br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/webupon/2008/05/27/170145_4.jpg" alt="" /><br /></h3> <p> The next big company to take a chance and invest in Facebook was Accel Partners. In May 2005, the company made an investment of $12.5 million then April 2006 Greylock Partners decided to invest $25 million in Facebook as well. </p></li><li> <h3>Microsoft’s Investment<br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/webupon/2008/05/27/170145_5.jpg" alt="" /></h3><br /><p> Within 4 years of launching Facebook, became the number 1 social networking site on the web but according to other sources it ranks 2 nd . Finally, in 2007 after seeing all the other major companies investing in Facebook, Microsoft contacted the owners of the site proposing an investment in return for 5% stake in the company. At the time they giant software company was offering up to $500 million for the investment. Owners of Facebook declined that offer but on October 24, 2007 Microsoft announced that they had purchased 1.6% of Facebook shares for the sum of $246 million. </p></li><li> <h3>Amount of Facebook Users and Applications</h3> <p> As most know, one of Facebook’s biggest downfalls is the applications that you’re requested to add every time you log in or do a quiz a friend has sent you. According to a study that was done in Nov 2007 there where over several thousands applications with another 100 being added daily. Crazy! In December 2007 to about the end of January of 2008, Facebook had seen its first drop in visitors in 3 years which was due mostly to the application spam within the site. The same study also showed that there were over 70 million daily active users to the site. </p></li><li> <h3>Pictures Uploaded Daily and Web Address Price</h3> <h3><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/webupon/2008/05/27/170145_6.jpg" alt="" /></h3> <p> Most people who have an account with Facebook know the amount of pictures their friends post and so on but did you know that daily number of photos uploaded is over 14 million? I had no idea the number was so high but it does explain all the errors you encounter when using the site. Also the social network has been always named “Facebook” but it officially became Facebook.com in August 2005 when it purchased the web address for the sum of $200,000. </p></li><li> <h3>Failure of Google and Yahoo Buy Out<br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/webupon/2008/05/27/170145_7.jpg" alt="" /><br /></h3> <div class="single-prev-next-float" style="float: left; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-right: 10px;"><br /></div><p> I don’t know how it came about but either Google and Yahoo where feeling threaten by the up and coming of the social network or they seen a way they could make a mass profit but in late September 2006 talks with Yahoo where underway and is rumoured they offered $1 billion to buy out Facebook where Google offered about $2 billion. Facebook owners where either holding out for more money or they realized they could make more in the long run from the site and decided to decline the offer from both sites. </p></li><li> <h3>Eleventh Richest Man in the World Invests In Facebook<br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/webupon/2008/05/27/170145_8.jpg" alt="" /><br /></h3> <a name="5min"></a> <script type="text/javascript"> var playerSeed = new PlayerSeed('SmartPlayer'); playerSeed.sid = 332; playerSeed.width = '300'; playerSeed.height = '250'; playerSeed.videoControlDisplayColor = '#363636'; playerSeed.categories = '16,28'; playerSeed.fallback = '6285970'; playerSeed.overlay= true; playerSeed.autoStart= false; playerSeed.cbCustomID = '5min-companion-ad'; playerSeed.hasCompanion=true; //playerSeed.Load(); </script> <script type="text/javascript"> var fiveMinChecks = 0; function check5Min() { if (fiveMinChecks > 20) clearInterval(check5MinId); else { fiveMinChecks++; var fiveMinLoaded = false; var fiveMinPlayer = document.getElementById("SmartPlayer"); if (fiveMinPlayer) fiveMinLoaded = fiveMinPlayer.innerHTML.indexOf("undefined") == -1; if (fiveMinLoaded) { clearInterval(check5MinId); if (document.getElementById("titleseed")) document.getElementById("titleseed").style.display = "block"; } } } var check5MinId = setInterval("check5Min()",250); </script> <p> This is Li Ka-shing also known as the World’s 11th richest man. This Chinese business tycoon has had his hand in a little bit of everything business orientated. He even had shares in Canada’s Imperial Bank of Commerce in 2005 which was worth about $1.2 billion. After following Facebook for a year the Chinese business man decided he wanted a part in the social networking site and on November 30, 2007 invested $60 million dollars. </p></li><li> <h3>Total Employees and Overall Value</h3> <p> In March 2008, Facebook had over 500 full-time employees on their payroll and according to other sources the total value of the company is now worth a easy $15 billion. Not too bad for a program a guy in his dorm room created from a project for school</p></li></ol>World's Funniest Facts and pictures.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15245703137553994596noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-214676483511084760.post-58391256389381843282010-06-04T20:48:00.000-07:002010-06-04T20:57:01.826-07:00<p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 204); text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size:130%;">#The First Japanese car in the United States was the Honda Accord manufactured in November 1982.<br /></span></p><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 204);font-size:130%;" ># Chevrolet Imphala was one such car that had enjoyed a breaking sales record of more than one million in 1965.</span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 204);font-size:130%;" ># The first cars used</span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 204);font-size:130%;" >lever instead of steering wheel.</span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 204);font-size:130%;" ># The first Porsche 911 was introduced in 1964 and generated a power output of 130 bhp.</span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 204);font-size:130%;" ># An airbag takes only 40 milliseconds to inflate after an accident.</span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 204);font-size:130%;" ># Ferrari makes a maximum of 14 cars every day.</span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 204);font-size:130%;" ># The world's longest traffic hold-up was between Paris and Lyon on the French Autoroute in 1980. it was about 110 miles long.</span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 204);font-size:130%;" ># The first auto insurance policy was purchased in in 1897 in Westfield, MA.</span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 204);font-size:130%;" ># Tata breaks the world records by producing the world's cheapest car, Tata Nano.</span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 204);font-size:130%;" ># Windshield wipers were introduced by a woman.</span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 204);font-size:130%;" ># The first self-propelled car was invented by Nicolas Cugnot in 1769.

You Forget 90% of Your Dreams</h4> Within 5 minutes of waking, half of your dream is forgotten. Within 10, 90% is gone.<br /><h4>2. Blind People also Dream</h4> <p>People who became blind after birth can see images in their <strong>dreams</strong>. People who are born blind do not see any images, but have <strong>dreams</strong> equally vivid involving their other senses of sound, smell, touch and emotion.</p><br /><h4>3. Everybody Dreams</h4> <p align="justify">Every human being dreams (except in cases of extreme psychological disorder). If you think, you are not dreaming, you just forget your dreams.</p><h4>4. In Our Dreams We Only See Faces, That We already Know</h4> <p align="justify">Our mind is not inventing faces – in our dreams we see real faces of real people that we have seen during our life but may not know or remember. We have all seen hundreds of thousands of faces throughout our lives, so we have an endless supply of characters for our brain to utilize during our dreams.</p><h4>5. Not Everybody Dreams in Color</h4> <p align="justify">A full 12% of sighted people dream exclusively in black and white. The remaining number dream in full color. Studies from 1915 through to the 1950s maintained that the majority of dreams were in black and white, but these results began to change in the 1960s. Today, only 4.4% of the dreams of under-25 year-olds are in black and white. Recent research has suggested that those changing results may be linked to the switch from black-and-white film and TV to color media.</p><h4>6. Dreams are Symbolic</h4> If you dream about some particular subject it is not often that the dream is about that. Dreams speak in a deeply symbolic language. Whatever symbol your dream picks on it is most unlikely to be a symbol for itself.<br /><h4>7. Emotions</h4> <p align="justify">The most common emotion experienced in dreams is anxiety. Negative emotions are more common than positive ones.</p><h4>8. Recurring Dreams</h4> <p align="justify">While the content of most dreams is dreamt only once, many people experience recurring dreams—that is, the same dream narrative is experienced over different occasions of sleep. Up to 70% of females and 65% of males report recurrent dreams.</p><br /><h4>9. Animals Dream Too</h4> <p align="justify">Studies have been done on many different animals, and they all show the same brain waves during dreaming sleep as humans. Watch a dog sleeping sometime. The paws move like they are running and they make yipping sounds as if they are chasing something in a dream.</p><h4>10. Body Paralysis</h4> <p align="justify"><em>Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is a normal stage of sleep characterized by rapid movements of the eyes.</em> <em>REM sleep in adult humans typically occupies 20-25% of total sleep, about 90-120 minutes of a night’s sleep. </em></p> <p align="justify">During REM sleep the body is paralyzed by a mechanism in the brain in order to prevent the movements which occur in the dream from causing the physical body to move. However, it is possible for this mechanism to be triggered before, during, or after normal sleep while the brain awakens.</p><h4>11. Dream Incorporation</h4> <p align="justify">Our mind interprets the external stimuli that our senses are bombarded with when we are asleep and make them a part of our dreams. This means that sometimes, in our dreams, we hear a sound from reality and incorporate it in a way. For example you are dreaming that you are in a concert, while your brother is playing a guitar during your sleep.</p><h4>12. Men and Women Dream Differently</h4> <p align="justify">Men tend to dream more about other men. Around 70% of the characters in a man’s dream are other men. On the other hand, a woman’s dream contains almost an equal number of men and women. Aside from that, men generally have more aggressive emotions in their dreams than the female lot.</p><h4>13. Precognitive Dreams</h4> <p align="justify">Results of several surveys across large population sets indicate that between 18% and 38% of people have experienced at least one precognitive dream and 70% have experienced déjà vu. The percentage of persons that believe precognitive dreaming is possible is even higher, ranging from 63% to 98%.</p><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);">So good night and sweet dreams!
