President Barack H. Obama's Inaugural Speech


The 44th president of the US was sworn yesterday and its a very exhilarating experience. Though the swearing ceremony was riddled by mistakes in the side of President Obama, it does not stop the crowd in cheering and applauding the newly sworn leader of the country. His inaugural speech was staggering and lots of Americans watching on the grounds of the White House and from the TV had tears in their eyes. With emotions running high, a record-setting crowd bearing witness and an unprecedented number of former presidents – Carter, Bush, Clinton and Bush – looking on together on the Capitol Steps, Barack Obama placed his right hand on Abraham Lincoln's Bible on Tuesday and stirringly affirmed: "I, Barack Hussein Obama, do solemnly swear that I will execute the office President of the United States faithfully."

Even Mother Nature seemed under Obama's spell. By the start of the ceremony, the skies over Washington, D.C., were clear but for the thinnest wisps of cloud, as a blinding sun kept winter temperatures tolerable. As one Obama aide put it, "if Barack Obama can deliver 70 degrees and sunny in Chicago for Election Day in November, we never had any doubt the sun would shine on his inauguration."

Here's The Speech Of President Barack Hussein Obama:

My fellow citizens:

I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.

Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents.

So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans.

That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.

Taylor Lautner Wanted To Save His Role In Twilight


Will Taylor Lautner remains as Jacob Black, the werewolf friend/lover of Bella in Twilight? Or Scorpion King 2 lead actor, Michael Copon will replace the fan favorite as the more mature Jacob Black in the upcoming Twilight sequel New Moon?

Eversince the replacement of Catherin Hardwicke by Chris Weitz to direct New Moon, there has been rumors that its not the end of the replacement sessions. Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart had been signed up for the lead role of Edward and Bella but the others had not been so sure in maintaining their roles on the fan favorite Twilight saga.

Taylor had been reportedly working out to add up some pounds to sustain his Jacob Black role. He told MTV on Wednesday night at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association's Salute to Young Hollywood party, "I have been working out. I've been working out since the day we finished filming Twilight. I just weighed myself today; I've put on 19 lbs."

He will have a meeting to the new director Chris Weitz to make up his case. Though he's the fan favorite for the role he's not yet signed for the same role on New Moon. Lots of fan really want him to be Jacob Black till the end of the series and all his co-stars too.

Death Toll In Mumbai Killings Have Reached 160



Nightmare had been unleashed in the city of Mumbai two days ago. A number of unknown men had invaded the financial capital of India and spread terrorist attacks at a number of its prominent places including Taj Mahal Hotel, Oberoi Hotel, Chabad House and lots more. It has been reported by CNN that around 160 people are already killed including three Germans, an Italian, an Australian and one Chinese among the at least 15 foreigners killed -- with a further 327 injuries.

Bhushan Gagrani, Maharashtra state official, said the death toll is expected to rise further and includes civilians, 16 police and two commandos. Eleven terrorists have also been killed.

Eleven terrorists are already been killed. The war is still raging at the Taj Mahal Hotel at this moment. One gunmen is still hiding inside the hotel throwing grenades and shooting an AK- 47 on the commandos. Some hostages in the hotel have managed to get out.

The identity of the gunmen is not yet known. Some witnesses said that they came from a waterfront by boats and they are all in their 20s. One organization called the Deccan Mujahideen took credit of the attacks in e-mails sent to several Indian news outlets.

Twilight Sequel, New Moon, Will Be Shown On 2010


Twilight fans will be happy from now on. Due to the success of the first movie from the Twilight Saga, its director Catherine Hardwicke is now gearing up for the sequel. All main actors and actresses have already sign up for the 2010 sequel New Moon. New Moon will be center on the friendship of two of the main characters: Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Jacob (Taylor Lautner). However Twilight fans are worried if Lautner is ready to be Jacob Black, the werewolf character in the movie who is growing bigger by the minute.

On her interview with USA Today, director Catherine Hardwicke, told the paper that Lautner might be chanting for himself to grow bigger. He said that he has actually gained 14 pounds since the director last saw him and he's only 16. So don't worry Twilighters, I assume that Taylor will grow as big as his Jacob Black character.

Twilight had pound movie sales with its $70 million opening week. And its shows that Ms. Hardwicke is doing her job right.

The vampire love story with a new twist, Twilight, is written by Stephenie Meyer. The saga is composed of four books - Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. Though the first movie receive mix reactions it was still a big success.

Your Vote Matters! - 2008 US Presidential Election


Who will win the 2008 US Presidential Elections? Is it the seasoned Republican senator from Arizona who has years of experience on the senatorial seat, John McCain or is it the Democrat candidate Barack Obama who is a junior senator from Illinois and a very charismatic ideologist who's talking all about change he could make when he will be elected on the post.

Running with the two presidentiables are VP nominates Senator Joe Biden on the Democratic Ticket and a senator from the state of Delaware and Gov. Sarah Palin from the state of Alaska who's running for the Republican Ticket.

In two years of the start of the caucases and now the election we had seen the platforms of the two budding persons for the US presidency. We have arrive on the verge of being angry with the dirty politics played by the Republican Party and the misdemeanors of their vice presidential candidate who even doen't know the role of the vice president. We have watched the debated and how calm Obama was during all the three debates and how McCain despises Obama and even called him "That One".

We even saw how the press and international newspapers, dignified individuals and known celebrities openly support Barack Obama on his quest. We even criticized the way McCain's undignified campaign and how he fell short in choosing Palin as his running mate which was obviously the wrong choice.

Now, its election day November 4, 2008 - the world will see this as a big change in history, on how the American have chosen. I just hope America will vote wisely but the important message here is to stand up NOW and vote out! Your vote count. Goodluck America.
