Do You Know Why Italian Striker, Mario Balotelli Wear Three Tramlines of Blue Sticky Tape?

In the Euro 2012 Championship, Italian striker Mario Balotelli was sporting three tramlines of blue sticky tape on his back.

Why are athletes wearing coloured tape?

At Wimbledon, Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic has had his elbow patched up with the same stuff.

                                             So what's behind this latest sporting fad?

The Japanese makers of Kinesio tape say it gives players an edge by mending injuries.

Although it might seem like a new idea, the tape has been around since the 1970s.

The Miracle of Pharaoh in the Holy Books!!

 Pharaoh is one of the most discussed and important character of ancient Egyptian history. He is mentioned in bible, torah and the Holy Quran. The most authentic accounts of pharaoh and Egypt is mentioned in Quran which are exact when compared with tangible historical data. Pharaoh regarded himself as deity and responded with slanders and threats to Prophet Musa’s (AS) calls for him to believe in Allah. The arrogance of pharaoh was punished by Allah and it was mentioned in Quran. Allah says in Quran:

  “We brought the tribe of Israel across the sea, and Pharaoh and his troops pursued them out of tyranny and enmity. Then, when he was on the point of drowning, he [Pharaoh] said: "I believe that there is no god but Him in Whom the tribe of Israel believes. I am one of the Muslims." (Qur'an, 10:90)

This was a prediction done in the Holy Quran 1400 years ago, and in 18^th century the body was found proving that Quran is a divine book revealed to mankind from the Creator of the worlds. The discovery of the Pharaoh’s body took place after an interval of 3000 years (1881-1898). Considering that the Quran had predicted that Pharaoh’s body would constitute a sign, one supposes that it should have been found. Indeed it was found. When and how? Well, after a time gap of 3000 years. What happened though was as the Quran predicted. 

"What, now! When previously you rebelled and were one of the corrupters? Today we will preserve your body so you can be a Sign for people who come after you. Surely many people are heedless of Our Signs." (Qur'an, 10:91-92)

This is one of the many miracles in Quran. Anyone who uses his intellect and logical reasoning can tell that Quran is a divine revelation.

Man-Made, Floating Island Goes On Sale "Orsos Island"

An Austrian firm has come up what it hopes is the next big thing for the mega-rich: a man-made, floating "island" with a list price of $6.5 million. Measuring 20 by 37 metres (66 by 121 feet), the "Orsos Island" has no engine but can be anchored anywhere its owners choose and then towed to another location the other side of the world if they so wish, Hungarian-born Gabor Orsos said.The island is environmentally friendly and fully self-sufficient, with solar panels and wind generators providing power. It can sleep 12 people plus crew and offers 1,000 square metres of living space.The only problem is that no "islands" have been produced yet and that once manufacturing starts it will initially be in land-locked Slovakia.But Orsos expects the first finished products to be ready in 18 months' to two years' time, and for the "islands" to be transported down the Danube river into the Black Sea -- and then to wherever the customer wants
