Mark Zuckerberg married without hoodie

Rascojet — Sun, 20 May 2012 02:46:29 +0000

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg got married to his longtime girlfriend Priscilla Chan on May 19, 2012 (24hrs after Facebook went IPO). No wonder he rang the bell remotely yesterday during the IPO, he was busy with the wedding preps. 27 year old Priscilla Chan graduated from University of California Medical School on Monday 14, 2012 when Zuckerberg turned 28.

Mark Zuckerberg added his wedding picture to his timeline as a life event. He was suited up on his wedding day instead of his regular hoodie. The wedding was held in Zuckerberg’s backyard with about 100 guests in attendance. This must be a very busy week for Zuckerberg and his wife. Happy Married life to you both!!!

Chelsea FC – Underdog takes it all

Chelsea won the 2012 UEFA Champions League by defeating Bayern Munich on home soil via penalties after the game ended 1-1 at regulation time. It was a game between the underdogs and the bulldogs and Chelsea is now the 2012 European Champions. Congrats to Chelsea and their fans.

This is not the best Chelsea team in recent times but the most successful. Roman Abramovich finally fulfilled his long time ambition of winning the Champions League [Sacking Works]. Now Tottenham is not going to the Champions League after struggling to finish fourth. I remember the adage “Life is not fair get used to it”.

Facebook goes to market in grand style. The shares of facebook entered the Nasdaq market making the third largest initial public offering in the history of the United States. Mark Zuckerberg rang the opening bell remotely from the company’s headquarters. The share price set at $38 on Thursday night gained $4 through the night and trading started @$42. Facebook IPO sets a record of $500million shares on its first day of trading.

Eight year old Facebook with twenty-eight year old CEO is now a $104 billion company [bigger than Amazon, Cisco, Visa, Citigroup and a host of other BIG companies]. Now Facebook can buy any company on planet earth and beyond . We hope to see what’s next with Facebook as the company goes public hoping it won’t become MySpace of tomorrow. Good luck to Facebook Company as Mark Zuckerberg became the 29^th richest person in the world.

Gianluigi Buffon – The best goalkeeper ever

Rascojet — Wed, 16 May 2012 02:01:59 +0000

Gianluigi Buffon is probably the best goalkeeper of all time. The 38 unbeaten games in the Serie A with Juventus in the 2011/2012 season added to a glorious career of this Super Goalkeeper. His notable awards include IFFHS Goalkeeper of the 21st century, IFFHS Goalkeeper of the decade [2001-2010], IFFHS Best Goalkeeper of the last 25 years [1987-2012], Serie A Goalkeeper of the year [8 times], European Footballer of the year [2006], FIFA World Cup [2006], and many others. In the history of the soccer game Gianluigi Buffon and Lev Yashin have been the most impressive of all time but Gianluigi Buffon is probably the best ever.

Manchester City a worthy champion of EPL

Kudos to the Manchester City team for making history by winning the English Premier League [EPL] the first time in 44 years after beating QPR 3-2 @Eastlands in their last game of the season. With two incredible late goals from Edin Dzeko and Sergio Aguero Manchester City proved that money can buy anything by winning the competitive EPL with their expensive team.

Manchester City are worthy champions of the EPL and would possibly dominate the game in the future. What a way to end a wonderful season [I was speechless when Aguero scored the third goal]. English Premier League is not only the most entertaining league but also the best. Congrats Manchester City!!!

Obafemi Awolowo – Gone but not forgotten

Rascojet — Wed, 09 May 2012 17:03:57 +0000

Obafemi Awolowo aka Awo was a Nigerian economist, lawyer, journalist and politician. He was born on March 6, 1909 and died on May 9, 1987. Obafemi Awolowo was Nigeria’s Premier of the Western Region and founder of the famous [Action Group] political party. He introduced free education in the Western Region during his time.

Chief Obafemi Awolowo was a rare genius. After his death he was embalmed for years in his hometown @Ikene and I remembered the day we made a trip to see his body. The day he was finally laid to rest (May 11, 1996) happened to be the day Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe died in Nigeria (I still can’t figure out this puzzle). Continue to rest in peace, Obafemi Awolowo, you are gone but not forgotten.
