. Happy Chemist Day! .

I like the Google Logo today!!



Its Robert Wilhelm Eberhard Bunsen Birthday today(31 March 1811 – 16 August 1899).

Bunsen was born in Göttingen, Germany, as the youngest of four sons of the University of Göttingen's chief librarian and professor of modern philology, Christian Bunsen (1770–1837).[5] After attending school in Holzminden, in 1828 Bunsen matriculated at Göttingen and studied chemistry with Friedrich Stromeyer, obtaining the Ph.D. degree in 1831. In 1832 and 1833 he traveled in Germany, France, and Austria, where he met Friedrich Runge (who discovered aniline and in 1819 isolated caffeine), Justus von Liebig in Gießen, and Eilhard Mitscherlich in Bonn.

Bunsen was one of the most universally admired scientists of his generation. He was a master teacher, devoted to his students, and they were equally devoted to him. At a time of vigorous and often caustic scientific debates, Bunsen always conducted himself as a perfect gentleman, maintaining his distance from theoretical disputes. He much preferred to work quietly in his laboratory, regularly enriching his science with useful discoveries. On a point of principle, he never took out a patent, despite the fact that his new battery and new laboratory burner would surely have brought him great wealth. Bunsen never married.

When Bunsen retired at the age of 78, he shifted his work solely to geology and mineralogy, an interest which he had pursued throughout his career. He died in Heidelberg aged 88.

. Legendary Actress Elizabeth Taylor Dies at Age 79 .



Elizabeth Taylor, whose acting talent and made-for-tabloids personal life combined to make her one of Hollywood's most alluring and lasting figures, died Wednesday at age 79. Taylor's publicist, Sally Morrison, confirmed that she died of congestive heart failure at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where she had been hospitalized for six weeks.

Taylor's four children, Michael and Christopher Wilding, Liza Todd and Maria Burton, were by her side at the end.

"My Mother was an extraordinary woman who lived life to the fullest, with great passion, humor, and love," Michael Wilding said in a statement. "We know, quite simply, that the world is a better place for Mom having lived in it. Her legacy will never fade, her spirit will always be with us, and her love will live forever in our hearts."

The 'Cleopatra' star was hospitalized last month for heart failure, and also underwent heart surgery in 2009.

In a recent Harper's Bazaar interview with super-fan Kim Kardashian, Taylor opened up about her many husbands, jewels and philanthropic work.


"I never planned to acquire a lot of jewels or a lot of husbands," Taylor told the 30-year-old Kardashian sister. "For me, life happened, just as it does for anyone else. I have been supremely lucky in my life in that I have known great love, and of course I am the temporary custodian of some incredible and beautiful things. But I have never felt more alive than when I watched my children delight in something, never more alive than when I have watched a great artist perform, and never richer than when I have scored a big check to fight AIDS."

Taylor made her on-screen debut at the age of nine in the film 'There's One Born Every Minute,' but first came to national attention in the film 'Lassie Come Home,' opposite lifelong friend Roddy McDowall. Her star-making role, however, came a few years later, when a then-12-year-old Taylor took on the titular role of Velvet Brown in 1944's 'National Velvet' – a film that in 2003 was selected for entry to the prestigious National Film Registry by the Library of Congress for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant."

After a string of successful films as a teenager, Taylor transitioned to adult roles with turns in hits like 'Father of the Bride' (1950) and George Stevens' 'A Place in the Sun' (1951), co-starring Montgomery Clift. Her well-reviewed turn in 'Place' established Taylor as an actress to be reckoned with, and would propel her into more dramatic fair like the 1956 epic 'Giant,' opposite James Dean and Rock Hudson, and 'Raintree County,' the 1957 film that earned her the first of five Best Actress Oscar nominations.

Following 'County,' Taylor starred in a pair of classic Tennessee Williams adaptations, 1958's steamy 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof,' with Paul Newman, and 'Suddenly, Last Summer' (1959), both of which earned her Academy Award nominations.

By 1960, Taylor was arguably the most famous actress in the world, a status reflected by her paycheck for 20th Century Fox's 'Cleopatra,' Joseph Mankiewicz's massive telling of the love affair between the legendary queen of Egypt and Roman warrior Marc Anthony (Richard Burton). Taylor was paid $1 million for the part, making her the highest paid actress in the world and the first to be paid a million dollars for a single role. The production of 'Cleopatra' was famously troubled -- Taylor became very ill on set, requiring a tracheotomy to save her life, and the production ran enormously over budget following production delays, swelling the budget to $44 million (roughly equal to $310 million today). When the film was finally released in 1963, it became that year's highest grossing film, though at $26 million, it failed to recoup its cost.

Taylor won her first Best Actress Oscar for her turn in 1960's 'Butterfield 8,' which co-starred her then-husband Eddie Fisher. Taylor famously left Fisher for her 'Cleopatra' co-star Burton, which at the time was perhaps the biggest celebrity scandal in history, and with whom she would go on to make several films together, including 'The V.I.P.s' (1963), 'The Sandpiper' (1965), 'The Taming of the Shrew' (1967), 'Doctor Faustus' (1967), 'The Comedians' (1967)' 'Boom!' (1968), 'Under Milk Wood' (1972) and 'Hammersmith Is Out' (1972).

The pair's most acclaimed film together was far and away 1966's Mike Nichols-directed classic 'Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?' The film brought Taylor her second Best Actress Academy Award for her turn as Martha opposite Burton's George in the adaptation of the famed play by Edward Albee.

Though Taylor's film career began to taper in the late '70s, she continued to appear periodically in a variety of well-received TV movies and miniseries, from 'North and South' (1985) and 'Sweet Bird of Youth' (1987) to 'The Simpsons' (Taylor famously voiced Lisa Simpsons' first word) and most recently 'These Old Broads' (2001), with Debbie Reynolds and Shirley MacLaine.

Taylor's last theatrical film was the hit 1994 live-action remake of 'The Flintstones,' where she played Wilma's meddling mother, Pearl Slaghoople.

In her later years when acting roles became less frequent, she was a spokeswoman for humanitarian causes, notably AIDS research. That work gained her a special Oscar in 1993.

She should toss and turn in front of the mirror at home before she step out the house. To be different and to reveal more skin is no hard but if your Brastick is showing that's not cool dude.

. 3 Ways To Make Him Fall In Love With U .

Have you ever found yourself falling for a man you were dating and wondered if he was feeling the same way? Did you find yourself trying to prove what a great catch you are by being sweeter, funnier and smarter in hopes that he would fall in love with you? Focusing on what a man wants and ingratiating yourself in this way may feel like the natural thing to do, but it's the worst way to try to make a man feel romantic love for you.

Love isn't a reasonable emotion - and being “nice” and “understanding” and “a good sport” won't get you where you want to go. Here are some ways that will:


Tip#1: Don't give a man more than he gives you.

Love, and inspiring a man to fall in love with you forever, is all about you being able to receivelove.

Most of us only know how to give. We give for lots of reasons - because we're taught that's the way to get to a man's heart (it isn't) because we see other women do it, and because deep down, it feels uncomfortable and scary to be vulnerable enough to really get love.

“A man is actually turned off when he gets more from you than he gives.”

A man is actually turned off when he gets more from you than he gives. When you shower him with affection, attention, dinners, gifts, and always go out of your way to drive to his place, it makes him think of you as a mother or a friend instead of inspiring his emotional desire


Tip #2: Don't give away exclusivity if he hasn't yet committed.

We become totally, emotionally invested in a man when we're exclusive with him because he has all our time and attention. There's no way we can stop wondering about where the relationship is going. But the more we think about it and talk about it, the more we push a man away.

When you can think of it in these terms, it's easier to keep your options open and keep your personal power in the relationship. Rather than talking about the relationship or threatening him with ultimatums, you can continue to keep your options open bydating other men. This way, you keep your class, your power, your boundaries, and he has to work to get you!

Tip#3: Don't give him gifts, make him dinner or pay for dates.

Yes, this sounds unfair, and yet, who pays is often the difference in his mind between friends hanging out together and a “date.”

If a man complains about paying for everything, let him know you don't care what you do, you feel great being with him, and you don't want to pay. Walking, hanging out in bookstores, having a picnic in a park can all be fun, romantic ways to get close to a man.

(And forget about cooking dinner, or trying to make dating “reciprocal.” A bowl of popcorn and something to drink is fine.)

When you give a man gifts, give him all your attention and energy, and give MORE than you receive, you're OVERFUNCTIONING.

Overfunctioning is doing more than your fair share and stepping up to rescue a man because you know you can do a better job. It's arriving from your masculine energy. It feels aggressive and forward to a man. And it's totally unattractive to him.

In my newsletter, I explain exactly why overfunctioning triggers a negative response in a man, and what to do to stop doing so much and instead get more love and more affection from your man by doing LESS.
