				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">Throughout the history of cricket there have been bowlers both feared and revered. Having a huge fan base, these were the bowlers respected by opposition batsmen and their teammates alike. Their ability to turn the match around on its head and take apart even the most explosive of batsmen at their own whim and will was unique and honored. Whether it be their express speed making the batsmen go weak in the knees, their ability to swing the ball or the deadly spin that could boggle batsmen with the highest degree of focus; these were simply the best and the most formidable in the business. A scrutiny of the most ferocious <b>bowling attacks</b> in the history of cricket brings to notice these <a href="http://topyaps.com/">top 10</a> squads listed here.</p>
<h2>10. Kumble and Harbhajan – jumping googlies and spinning doosras:</h2>
<p>In late 90s and the beginning of the new millennium, Kumble and Harbhajan spearheaded India’s spin attack. Reliving the magic of India’s spin quartet days, it was on account of these two that Indians fans started having faith on their spinners once again. Dissecting every batting line-up in their way, particularly destroying Australia multiple times, they spun the ball like none of their contemporaries and bowled mind-boggling spin. Lending fame to the ‘Doosras’ and the googlies, they surely deserve a place in the top 10.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19402" title="Kumble and Harbhajan" alt="Kumble and Harbhajan - Top 10 Most Dangerous Bowling Attacks in Cricket History " src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Kumble-and-Harbhajan.jpg" width="350" height="400" /></p>
<h2>9. Curtly Ambrose and Courtney Walsh &#8211; head hitting bouncers that wreaked havoc:</h2>
<p>These two are definitely among the <a href="http://topyaps.com/top-10-fast-bowlers-in-cricket-history/"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">greatest bowlers</span></a> of all time. Together they formed a pair that was dubbed the ‘Stealth Bombers’. Both bowlers being well above 6 feet, they towered over most batsmen and were perfectly capable of wreaking havoc on their day. Their pace intimidated the batsmen and they worked as a pair to get the best of results. While <b>Curtly Ambrose</b> instilled fear with his sheer pace, Walsh was always meticulous with his line and length and the combination worked wonders for the West Indies.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19400" title="Curtly Ambrose and Courtney Walsh" alt="Curtly Ambrose and Courtney Walsh" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Curtly-Ambrose-and-Courtney-Walsh.jpg" width="450" height="350" /></p>
<h2>8. Allan Donald and Shaun Pollock &#8211; when accuracy complimented speed:</h2>
<p>Giving the meaning of pace-attack a new dimension, Donald and Pollock defined South African cricket team’s success to a great deal during the late 90s. The swinging yorkers of <b>Allan Donald</b> at a deadly pace, and the sheer accuracy and cunning variations of Shaun Pollock had batsmen worrying about their feet rather than the wickets. Making it almost impossible to score off them, they brought the run-scoring to a stand-still, forcing batsmen to make mistakes and lose their precious wicket to their ability. They laid the foundation to South Africa being the formidable side they still continue to be.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19398" title="Allan Donald and Shaun Pollock" alt="Allan Donald and Shaun Pollock - Top 10 Most Dangerous Bowling Attacks in Cricket History " src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Allan-Donald-and-Shaun-Pollock.jpg" width="350" height="400" /></p>
<h2>7. Wasim Akram, Waqar Younus and Shoaib Akhtar &#8211; reverse swinging yorkers:</h2>
<p>The ‘Sultan of Swing’, the undoubted best in reverse-swinging the cricket ball and the ‘Rawalpindi Express’ made <b>Pakistan’s pace attack</b> the best in the world at a point of time. Wasim’s caliber combined with Waqar’s experience gave strength to the young gun Shoaib’s rustling pace and made them a daunting trio. Wasim’s ability to ball six wicket-taking deliveries in an over was superbly complemented by Waqar’s reversing deliveries. The rest was taken care of by Shoaib’s sheer speed. The result: batsmen had no way out of the predicament. Consequently, Pakistan won innumerable matches banking on the three.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19397" title="Wasim Akram, Waqar Younus and Shoaib Akhtar" alt="Wasim Akram, Waqar Younus and Shoaib Akhtar" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Wasim-Akram-Waqar-Younus-and-Shoaib-Akhtar.png" width="450" height="300" /></p>
<h2>6. Bedi, Prasanna, Chandrasekhar and Venkataraghavan &#8211; invincible masters of spin:</h2>
<p>They gave birth to the era of spin in world cricket and India. Each being a deadly specialist in his own right, they worked like a team to carve out victories for India. Never had the cricketing world seen such a combination of spinners who were perfectly capable of turning the game around on any given day. With their competence and dexterity, they saw many a side crumbling to their will and magic. Prasanna with his <b>off spin</b>, Bedi with his slow left arm orthodox bowling, Chandrasekhar with his leg spin and off spinner Venkataraghavan mastered all the dimensions of spin bowling and were seldom seen failing the task.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19399" title="Bedi, Prasanna, Chandrasekhar and Venkataraghavan" alt="Bedi, Prasanna, Chandrasekhar and Venkataraghavan - Top 10 Most Dangerous Bowling Attacks in Cricket History " src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Bedi-Prasanna-Chandrasekhar-and-Venkataraghavan.jpg" width="450" height="300" /></p>
<h2>5. Muttiah Muralitharan and Chaminda Vaas &#8211; spin wizard and ‘miser’ seamer:</h2>
<p>This was a duo that got Sri Lanka recognition on the cricketing map. During the World Cup of 1996, these two gave the meaning of <b>bowling attacks</b> a very different touch. They haunted the opposition and successfully buried them. Continuing their good work, they worked magic for Sri Lankan bowling throughout their careers. Incidentally, out of the top four <a href="http://topyaps.com/top-10-greatest-cricket-odi-matches-ever-played/"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">best ODI performances</span></a> of all time, the top two rest with them. While Murali kept batsmen guessing, Vaas was more known for his economy rate and verity. The combination worked wonderfully for Sri Lanka and was the major contributor towards their being World Champions.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19395" title="Muttiah Muralitharan and Chaminda Vaas" alt="Muttiah Muralitharan and Chaminda Vaas" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Muttiah-Muralitharan-and-Chaminda-Vaas.jpg" width="450" height="300" /></p>
<h2>4. Shane Warne and Glenn McGrath &#8211; flippers and accuracy, hand in hand:</h2>
<p>The enchanting leg-spinner from Australia and his swift and deft counterpart took the country to be the number one position for a successive three World Cups. Warne’s clairvoyant leg-spin entrapping numerous batsmen and McGrath with his spot-on accuracy, while not being on the plane style-wise, was a force to be reckoned with. Batsmen never knew what hit them and were out of the field in a jiffy. Never giving the opponents a breathing space, their relentless precision always worked for the Aussies and kept them at the prized position for years on end.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19396" title="Shane Warne and Glen McGrath" alt="Shane Warne and Glen McGrath - Top 10 Most Dangerous Bowling Attacks in Cricket History " src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Shane-Warne-and-Glen-McGrath.jpg" width="350" height="400" /></p>
<h2>3. Dennis Lillee and Jeff Thomson &#8211; when speed instilled fear:</h2>
<p>Two of the fiercest bowlers Australia ever produced, Lillee and Thomson are a must on any list ever made on the best bowling attacks. With deliveries clocking over 160 km/h, Thompson was easily the fastest of the bowlers of his generation and inculcated fear in the minds of batsmen. His partner in crime, Lillee, was known more for his fiery temperament and never-say-die attitude. Together they made one fearsome pair that is still remembered to be the best by far of any other of Australian origin in <a href="http://topyaps.com/top-10-greatest-batsmen-in-the-history-of-test-cricket/"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Test cricket</span></a>. Their ability to perform extraordinarily and consistently was what has earned them a mention in this list.</p>

<h2>2. Malcolm Marshall, Andy Roberts and Joel Garner &#8211; the trio of destruction:</h2>
<p>The pace battery comprising of these three was actually what saw the <a href="http://topyaps.com/top-10-greatest-cricket-odi-matches-ever-played/"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">West Indies team</span></a> rise to dominate all others in the 70s. Yes, they were always backed up well by their batsmen, but they were what instilled the fear of facing a West Indian team in an opposition. Total annihilation of the contention is what they always had in mind while walking on to the field and more often than not, they succeeded in their goal. The forerunners to a long streak of deadly fast bowlers from the Indies, they were the idols for generations upon generations of aspiring bowlers.</p>

<h2>1. Malcolm Marshall and Michael Holding &#8211; speed kills ‘and’ thrills:</h2>
<p>This is, without the shadow of a doubt, the most intimidating <b>bowling pair</b> ever to have set foot on a cricket field. I can imagine your consternation on having picked <b>Malcolm Marshall</b> twice but he simply was that good. And paired with Mikey, he was downright lethal. Both Malcolm and Michael complimented and supplemented each other perfectly. At the same time, there was certain viciousness in their attack that is unmatched and unsurpassed to this day. The way they bowled made the most competent of willow-wielders duck for their lives and the crowd could be heard chanting, “Kill them! Kill them”. Seeing them running down to bowl a delivery, one can be pardoned for actually thinking they were going in for the kill.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you ask anyone where the world trade centre was or why you can not catch bees but you can easily catch butterflies probably  everyone will be able to give you an answer loaded with their own facts. But there are many things in life we come across daily and hear about them from people with incomplete knowledge, and still mark them as the proper information one can get to hear. This result out as &#8220;taken for granted truth&#8221; and from that point we rely on them instead of researching for true hidden facts. Here are some of the<strong> top 5 firsts that were actually not first. </strong>Enjoy!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>5. The Big Bang Theory:</h2>
<p>We really don&#8217;t want to displease our readers but this is something you need to know about the other side of the<em> Big Bang Theory</em>. One of the former US secretary of State Dean Rusk mentioned &#8221; The best way to actuate people is by your long angry comment on internet &#8220;.  Fr. Georges Lemaitre was the Belgian priest who projected his hypothesis on how the universe expand in 1927 but he was really not sure about it so he met Albert Einstein to talk over about this theory. He was not successful to convince Einstein and was rather told that despite of his good calculations in physics he still needs to improve but later he added that saying no to his theory was his biggest mistake of his life. The name of this theory <strong>Big Bang</strong> was used by skeptic physicist, Fred Hoyle, who was continuously applying this name as an approach to make the whole concept look absurd.</p>
<p><a href="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/bigbang-firsts-409x600.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19364" alt="Top 5 Firsts That Weren't Actually First" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/bigbang-firsts-409x600.jpg" width="409" height="600" /></a></p>
<h2>4.  The First Light Blub:</h2>
<p>We know the man Thomas Edison who invented the first light bulb but today we are sharing something more that you need to know. Before he invented the light bulb, bulbs were in existence but due to the expensive platinum used in them, they failed to come out in circulation. Sir Humphry Davy (the man in the picture) created light by passing electricity through platinum in 1801 &#8211; that means 78 years before Edison&#8217;s incandescent bulb! But for the first time platinum was used in vacuum by Warren de la Rue just like we used bulbs in modern days. So, now its kind of undigestable stuff to believe that Thomas Edison was the first to invent light blub.</p>
<p><a href="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/lightbulb-firsts-450x600.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19365" alt="Top 5 Firsts That Weren't Actually First" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/lightbulb-firsts-450x600.jpg" width="450" height="600" /></a></p>
<h2>3. First Man To Bypass The Globe:</h2>
<p>You might not believe this but we are going to share the &#8216;dark side&#8217; of this article. According to the history books  Magellan was the man who circumnavigated the globe but the fact is that he himself died before he became popular for his feat. His ship did completed the globe but without him in command. Enrique De Malacca was board on that crew who was a slave of Magellan&#8217;s and was a benefit for them as a interpreter. Many people rely on the fact that he was actually Fillipino who was never displayed as a hero.</p>
<p><a href="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/globe-firsts.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19366" alt="Top 5 Firsts That Weren't Actually First" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/globe-firsts.jpg" width="350" height="498" /></a></p>
<h2>2. The First Printing Press:</h2>
<p>It was the biggest invention that came into prominence for spreading up information storage and sharing. It was developed by Johannes Guttenberg in 1439 which can make 240 pages an hour with high quality. There are some people who still believe that  Guttenberg brought this technology from Korea during the time when Mongols where trying to destroy their religious texts and Koreans were trying to save them. But we are not able to find the certain information based on truth. Nevertheless, there is always a probability that Guttenberg only took the idea and never created it himself.</p>
<p><a href="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/printingpress-firsts-570x473.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19368" alt="Top 5 Firsts That Weren't Actually First" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/printingpress-firsts-570x473.jpg" width="570" height="473" /></a></p>
<h2>1. First Non-stop Transatlantic flight:</h2>
<p>Ask anyone who cross the Atlantic first and the only name that will pop up is of Charles Lindbergh. But in reality John Alcock and Arthur Whitten Brown were ahead of Lindbergh by almost eight years. On July 14, 1919 they left from Newfoundland but on their way, they were knocked out and after 16 hours of flying they landed in Ireland. Their plane was badly crashed and their names, along with their journey, ended there.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Human mind can be compared to a computer program based on the fact that it can function in any possible manner. Some have a normal mindset where they work their way towards a normal enjoyable life while a few cannot do anything apart from performing unlikable activities. And then comes the third variant i.e. the murderers. Killing other people is definitely the most cruelest activity that one can think of. If we think about the reasons then revenge, hatred, jealousy and other personal reasons come to mind. Over the course of history mankind has seen several brutal cases where people went on a killing spree with or without any solid reason. The slick minds of those killers portrays the lowest grade to which a human can make himself comfortable with. Perhaps they get a feeling of pleasure but destroying somebody else&#8217;s life is the most grievous act of crime. The following 10 cases of unidentified serial killers are explored with an intention of understanding few of the most twisted minds the world has ever seen. In all these cases the murderer&#8217;s identity remains unknown till this date, although various possible identifications of varying credibility have been proposed.</p>
<h2> 10. Alphabet Murders</h2>
<p>This was a very peculiar case that took place in the early 70s in Rochester, New York. The murderer raped and killed <a href="http://www.democratandchronicle.com/article/20090301/NEWS01/903010314/-Double-initial-murders-remain-mystery-after-35-years?nclick_check=1">three young girls</a>. Also known as <em>double initial murders</em>, the case got its name from the fact that the first name and last name of all of the girls murdered started with the same letter (Wanda Walkowicz, Carmen Colon and Michelle Maenza). Another amusing similarity that was noted was that the dead bodies of those girls were found in a city whose name started with the same letter as the girl&#8217;s last name (Walkowicz in Webster, Colon in Churchville  and Maenza in Macedon). Over the years hundreds of people, including Carmen Colon&#8217;s uncle (committed suicide in 1991), have been interrogated but the killer is not caught yet. Joseph Naso, a professional photographer hailing from New York, is being looked upon as a person of interest in the Alphabet Murders case. He was arrested on April 11, 2011 for four murders in California dating back to the 70s. His alleged victims are Pamela Parsons, Tracy Tofoya, Roxene Roggash and Carmen Colon (absurd coincidence but she was a different person, not the one from Rochester).</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19295" title="Alphabet Murders" alt="Alphabet Murders" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Alphabet-Murders.jpg" width="600" height="300" /></p>
<h2>9. Boston Strangler</h2>
<p>This is the name depicted to the murderer of 13 women (aged 19-85) in Boston in the 1960s. It is still not confirmed whether these murders were committed by one particular person or several people. The killer was known for his strange ability to persuade women to allow him to enter their apartments as no sign of forced entry was detected. Most of the victims were sexually assaulted and strangulated to death. It was also realized that the women killed by the strangler belonged to various ethnic groups and also his act of operation varied. The media attention to the case persuaded many frightened women to leave the town and despite all the publicity the killings didn&#8217;t stop. Later on the crimes were attributed to Albert DeSalvo after his confession but  none of the parties who have been investigating this case were satisfied and believed that these crimes were not committed by one person. Not even the <a href="http://www.trutv.com/library/crime/serial_killers/notorious/boston/19.html">people who knew him personally</a> believed that he could have carried out such heinous crimes. The mystery might have been closed by the court (he was sent for life imprisonment in 1967) but all those who have been studying the case are still not satisfied.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19296" title="Boston Strangler" alt="Boston Strangler" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Boston-Strangler.jpg" width="450" height="300" /></p>
<h2>8. Original Night Stalker</h2>
<p>This is the name attributed to a series of murders that were committed in Southern California from 1979 to 1986. Law agencies have linked around 50 murders in the Sacramento County and Contra Costa County to this case. DNA tests have associated 10 murders to the <em>Original Night Stalker</em> and the researchers believe that at least three more murders were carried out by him. The suspect is also referred to as  <em>The East Area Rapist</em>. He had most probably started out as a burglar and later on committed rapes. He broke into the houses of the victims (primarily the women lived in a single story house) and prowled his way to the victims. Criminologists studied the crime scenes and created a psychological profile of the stalker. The key points from his profile are:</p>
<ul>
<li>Age between 26 to 30 when the crimes were committed</li>
<li>Had a means of income, but did not work in the early morning hours</li>
<li>Dressed well and would not stand out in upscale neighborhoods</li>
<li>Would appear harmless</li>
<li>Intelligent and well spoken</li>
<li>Would have been described by those who knew him as arrogant, domineering, manipulative, and a chronic liar</li>
<li>Had some knowledge of police investigative methods and evidence gathering techniques</li>
<li>Engaged in sex with prostitutes</li>
<li>Hated women for real or perceived wrongs</li>
</ul>
<p>Based on the profile it is believed that most likely he committed suicide later on.</p>

<h2>7. Doodler</h2>
<p>Also known as the Black Doodler, the killer is blamed responsible for 14 murders and 3 assaults on men in the gay community of San Francisco. He was given this nickname because of his weird habit of sketching his victims before having sex with them and later on stabbing them to death. The murders took place between January 1974 and September 1975. The killer supposedly met his victims at gay nightclubs, restaurants and bars. Out of all the victims, three people (one was a diplomat and another one an entertainer) managed to survive the slayings. Police captured a suspect but could not testify him as the survivors were not ready to appear in the court. Even the suspect cooperated with the Police but did not admit to the murders. Due to lack of evidence nobody was charged with these murders and it has turned into a cold case and is still open in the concerned homicide division.</p>

<h2>6. Phantom of Heilbronn</h2>
<p>Also known as the &#8220;Woman without a face&#8221;, a female serial killer was held responsible for various crimes ranging from theft to murder between 1993 to 2009. Authorities expected a female suspect based on the laboratory tests of the DNA evidences found at 40 crimes scenes in Austria, Germany and France. In March 2009, investigators came to a conclusion that the so-called <em>Phantom killer</em> did not exist and the <a href="http://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/q-tip-off-police-fear-serial-killer-was-just-dna-contamination-a-615608.html">DNA evidence</a> that was found was already present on the cotton swabs that were used to retrieve DNA samples. A research concluded that a particular type of mitochondrial DNA is found in people from East Europe and neighboring Russia. Thus DNA reports cannot be used in criminal proceedings to determine anything other than sex. It was later realized that all the swabs came from the same factory which employed European women who fit the type of DNA sequence. This misleading caused due to the DNA samples proved fatal for the authorities as they went on the wrong course and the real killer easily avoided detection.</p>

<h2>5. Freeway Phantom</h2>
<p>In this case six African-American girls (aged 10-18) were kidnapped, raped and then strangulated to death by an unknown killer. The killings took place in Washington D.C. from April 1971 to September 1972.</p>
<div class="quote-wrapper">
<div class="quote"><i>This is tantamount to my insensititivity</i> [sic] <i>to people especially women.</i><br />
<i>I will admit the others when you catch me if you can!</i></p>
<p><i>Free-way Phantom</i></div>
</div>
<p>This note was found kept inside a jacket along with the dead body of his fifth victim Brenda Woodward (aged 18). Authorities concluded that this note was dictated to Brenda by the killer and she wrote it down by tearing off a piece of paper from her notebook. His second victim Brenda Crockett (aged 10) called her sister after being abducted and said, &#8220;A white man picked me up, and I&#8217;m heading home in a cab&#8221; and gave a hint that she was probably in Virginia.</p>
<p>Several investigators have showed a keen interest in this killer but <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/06/25/AR2006062501086.html">none could find out who he was</a>. Numerous tips were given by common public by the use of a phone hotline operated by Metropolitan Police Department and by the U.S. postal service. All the tips were studied and logical conclusions were derived. Many individuals and a group called Green Vega Rapists were considered and interrogated but none were convicted due to the lack of significant evidence. At that time the case files used to be kept by the Detectives assigned to the case and not the Police. As time passed, various case files along with the leads were lost and many investigators who studied this case either retired or passed away and the case never got solved.</p>

<h2>4. Servant Girl Annihilator</h2>
<p>This serial killer haunted the city of Austin, Texas during 1884 and 1885. <em>Texas Monthly</em> reported the death of seven women (5 black, 2 white) and one black male. Also, two men and six women were seriously injured. All of the victims were attacked inside the house while they were asleep. According to the reports, all of the victims faced a similar brutal beat down and a sharp object was found inserted into the ears of six female victims. The killings stopped after the murder of two white women in December 1985. During the next one year at least 400 individuals were arrested and interrogated. Many people including authors Shirley Harrison and Phillip Sugden believed that the Texas murderer and <a href="http://www.trutv.com/library/crime/serial_killers/history/servant_girl/10.html">Jack the Ripper</a> were the same person (Texas killings took place three years before Jack the Ripper murders). In June 2000, <em>Texas Monthly</em> reported that there was an eye witness who said that he saw the murders taking place. But his statement was not testified as he reported logically opposite details to the Detectives and Police. It was also believed that the killer worked with an aide or could have even been a part of a gang. The murders stopped after the Police force was expanded, rewards were declared for those who provided information and the citizens formed a surveillance committee to patrol the town at night.</p>

<h2>3. The Axeman of New Orleans</h2>
<p>From May 1918 to October 1919 a guy popularly referred to as the <em>Axeman</em> went on a killing spree in New Orleans and nearby areas. Just like the pseudo name tells us, the killer used an axe to attack his targets. Although bizarre, but in few cases the axe belonged to the victim itself. In many of the cases, the murderer made his way into the victims house by destroying the back entrance and then attacked the residents using an axe. Most of the victims were Italian-American which gives us an hint that the killer might have been racially influenced. Criminologists have inferred (hypothetically) that the <em>Axeman</em> killed men only when they tried to block him from attacking the women resident of the house. Few suggest that he might have been a sadist who seeks female victims. Another bizarre theory is that he committed murders in an attempt to promote jazz music as he stated that he would spare the lives of those who would play jazz music in their houses in one of his letters.</p>
<p><strong>Excerpts from his letter -</strong></p>
<div class="quote-wrapper">
<div class="quote">They have never caught me and they never will. They have never seen me, for I am invisible, even as the ether that surrounds your earth. I am not a human being, but a spirit and a demon from the hottest hell. I am what you Orleanians and your foolish police call the Axeman.</div>
</div>
<div class="quote-wrapper">
<div class="quote">Now, to be exact, at 12:15 (earthly time) on next Tuesday night, I am going to pass over New Orleans. In my infinite mercy, I am going to make a little proposition to you people. Here it is:<br />
I am very fond of jazz music, and I swear by all the devils in the nether regions that every person shall be spared in whose home a jazz band is in full swing at the time I have just mentioned. If everyone has a jazz band going, well, then, so much the better for you people. One thing is certain and that is that some of your people who do not jazz it on Tuesday night (if there be any) will get the axe.</div>
</div>

<h2>2. Jack The Ripper</h2>
<p>This is the name given to the serial killer who targeted the areas in and around Whitechapel district of London in 1988. The attacks primarily focused the prostitutes in the slums of London. The <em>modus operandi</em> of the killer was quite treacherous as he used to first slit the throats open and then heavily damage the abdominal parts of his targets. This act made the investigators believe that the killer possessed surgical knowledge. A few letters received by the media agencies at that time contributed to the notoriety as the writer of those letters claimed to be the killer. These letters were disregarded and considered to be  an hoax initiated by a journalist in an attempt to brighten the interest in the story. Eleven cases of murder ranging from 3 April 1888 to 13 February 1891 took place  in Whitechapel but all of these are not believed to be the acts of <em>The Ripper</em>. Only 5 out of the 11 murders are believed to be the works of <em>The Ripper</em> and they are popularly referred to as the &#8220;Canonical Five&#8221;. He is definitely not the first serial killer but his crimes grabbed massive media coverage worldwide. Background studies reveal that England witnessed the arrival of thousands of immigrants during that era. As a result even the Whitechapel area turned highly overcrowded and a compelling low class of society developed. Thefts, assaults and alcohol dependency turned common and poverty led many women to turn into prostitutes. These tough conditions are attributed as the source of motivation of the killer by many investigators. The investigation was carried out from house to house and several forensic evidences were studied. More than 2000 people were questioned, over 200 were interrogated and around 80 were apprehended in this case. But even after sensational investigation and media coverage no one was ever charged with these murders.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19290" title="Jack The Ripper" alt="Jack The Ripper" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Jack-The-Ripper.jpeg" width="350" height="500" /></p>
<h2>1. Zodiac Killer</h2>
<p>The Zodiac Killer operated in the Northern California region during the 1960s and 1970s. The name originated in the series of letters that he had sent to several press offices in the San Francisco Bay Area. His letters included four ciphers which he claimed would help to identify him. But only one of his cipher was decoded and the rest still remain a mystery. This case has been marked as inactive and re-opened several times at different Police departments till now. The chain of letters started on August 1, 1969 when three letters written by the killer were received at the <em>San Francisco Chronicle</em>, the <em>Vallejo Times Herald</em> and<em> The San Francisco Examiner</em>. The killer demanded that the letters must be published on each newspaper&#8217;s front page or else he would go on a killing spree. <em>San Francisco Chronicle</em> published the letter on page 4 along with a note by Vallejo Police Chief Jack E. Stiltz saying &#8220;We&#8217;re not satisfied that the letter was written by the murderer&#8221; and asked the killer to send another note to confirm his identity. Meanwhile rest of the letters were published and on  August 7, 1969 another letter was received at the <em>Examiner</em>&#8216;s office in a response to Chief Stiltz&#8217;s request. Over the time many other letters were received at different places from the killer where sometimes he confessed to murder he committed and in others warned the authorities about the murders he was about to commit. For many years he continued to communicate with various authorities by using letters, greeting cards and even called a talk show once. His last letter was received by the <em>Chronicle</em> (postmarked &#8216;January 29, 1974) in which he praised &#8220;The Exorcist&#8221; as &#8216;the best saterical comidy&#8217; that he had ever seen. Many more letters from people claiming themselves to be the <em>Zodiac Killer</em> were received but their ownership is highly doubted. In total the killer has taken the responsibility of 37 murders but the investigators have linked only 7 attacks to him out of which 2 of the victims survived. Over the years the curious case of the <em>Zodiac Killer</em> has captured the interest of numerous investigators but all of them have failed to identify him.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">It is a tough task to distinguish and differentiate between an intellectual and a <b>pseudo-intellectual</b>. Both seem knowledgeable and articulate at the same time. A pseudo-intellectual is someone who pretends to be someone else in an attempt to outsmart everyone. They project themselves as “know-it-all” materials but the fact is that they do not have real brains. Just sounding profound to impress others, is not particularly difficult, those who actually master the art of being profound, make an impression easily. The moment people start shrugging facts they don&#8217;t appreciate or start using ill-logic to draw fictitious conclusion from the facts and presenting them as true, is where one starts acting like a pseudo-intellectual. With an overview of a pseudo-intellectual’s personality type, here are the <a href="http://topyaps.com/">top 10</a> ways to become a pseudo-intellectual, if you want to be so.</p>
<h2>10. Copy someone else’s comments:</h2>
<p>If you come across some real serious conversation, which impressed you extraordinarily, you may copy those statements and use them later in your own conversation. The trick is, do not forget to include your mentor’s name. As keeping his/her originality intact, you add value to your said statement and build trust among your set of audience, at no extra cost.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19308" title="Copy someone else’s comments" alt="Copy someone else’s comments" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Copy-someone-else’s-comments.png" width="450" height="300" /></p>
<h2>9. Talk on vague subjects:</h2>
<p>A pseudo-intellectual often takes up a really mysterious or mystical topic as his forte, which is not relevant to many. These topics include <a href="http://topyaps.com/top-10-prominent-scientific-theories-given-by-indian-dudes/">quantum physics</a>, the nature of consciousness, cosmology, etc. Some resort to saying big words, which trigger the audience to give them either money, adulation or both. They usually hardly know much about the subject that they are talking about, but they pretend to be really knowledgeable. You can sum them up as con-artists.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19306" title="Talk on vague subjects" alt="Talk on vague subjects" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Talk-on-vague-subjects.jpg" width="400" height="500" /></p>
<h2>8. Read Science and daily newspapers/political magazines:</h2>
<p>Be a voracious reader. Develop a knack for science-related stuff though you do not have to go in deep, only surface-level understanding is sufficient. Also read topics on art or culture and scan the daily newspaper. Try to develop that “out-of-the-box” thinking and you can apply the ideas on the <a href="http://topyaps.com/top-10-social-networking-sites/"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">social networking sites</span></a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19304" title="Read Science and daily newspapers political magazines" alt="Read Science and daily newspapers political magazines" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Read-Science-and-daily-newspapers-political-magazines.png" width="350" height="400" /></p>
<h2>7. Prove “things” which audiences want:</h2>
<p>After giving some arguments in favor of your own statement, agree with things which your audience wants to hear. But you should not be in a hurry to hand them over their own thought. You cook these thoughts for a while and test their patience, but at last provide evidence at their behest.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19303" title="Prove “things” which audiences want" alt="Prove “things” which audiences want" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Prove-“things”-which-audiences-want.gif" width="450" height="450" /></p>
<h2>6. Don’t back down:</h2>
<p>If someone points out an error in your writing, or what you said, do not get offended. Intelligently, portray your error as a more enlightened form of truth. Postmodernists have been getting away with it for decades, so you can take a cue from them as if they are your role model. We have witnessed the false prophet who had this prophecy that the world will come to an end, it was atypical of people who questioned his prophecy. <b>Pseudo-intellectual</b>s are no different.<b></b></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19311" title="Don’t back down" alt="Don’t back down" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Don’t-back-down.png" width="450" height="500" /></p>
<h2>5. Keep straw men as your real friends:</h2>
<p>It is said that a man is known by the company he keeps. But pseudo-intellectuals always keep straw men as their real friends. They do not reveal their true self to anyone. Use sophisticated straw men arguments as fool-proof theories of your own, and you will witness the growing list of your admirers.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19302" title="Keep straw men as your real friends" alt="Keep straw men as your real friends" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Keep-straw-men-as-your-real-friends.png" width="400" height="500" /></p>
<h2>4. Do not be open to criticism:</h2>
<p>Display a wisdom which everyone thinks they have. Even if you have some critics, none will take the risk of appearing stupid by asking you what you are talking about. The basic principle being: anyone who disagrees with you is either stupid or wicked, or both.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19309" title="Do not be open to criticism" alt="Do not be open to criticism" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Do-not-be-open-to-criticism.jpg" width="450" height="300" /></p>
<h2>3. Do not take others’ views seriously:</h2>
<p>To become a <a href="http://www.newsyaps.com/the-rise-of-pseudo-intellectuals-on-social-networking-sites/3599/">pseudo-intellectual</a> you must have a completely pared-down, tunnel-vision focus on what you said. Flatly ignore what others are saying, even if there’s some relevance. Try to pick their thoughts and present it precisely in your distinct form, which will be appealing. One of the fundamental traits of a pseudo-intellectual mind is always to make others feel inadequate of their own mental capacities.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19310" title="Do not take others’ views seriously" alt="Do not take others’ views seriously" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Do-not-take-others’-views-seriously.jpg" width="450" height="300" /></p>
<h2>2. Be a netizen:</h2>
<p>Surf the web for complete detailing of the subjects you plan to discuss. Be an admirer of web and internet. You know that it is you, who will have a monopoly on truth. Words said by you are not crossed, even if they seem dubious.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19307" title="Be a netizen" alt="Be a netizen" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Be-a-netizen.jpg" width="450" height="300" /></p>
<h2>1. Skim through world-class books on Philosophy:</h2>
<p>Even if you are not interested in philosophy, do not mind having a glimpse into the ideologies of some world-class philosophers like Arthur Danto, Jean Paul Satre, Michel Foucault, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Friedrich Nietzsche, <a href="http://topyaps.com/top-10-people-behind-propagating-communism/"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Karl Marx</span></a>, Rene Descartes, etc. You are not advised to study them in detail, what is required for a <b>pseudo-intellectual</b> is to know a little of everything.<b> </b></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-19305" title="Skim through world-class books on Philosophy" alt="Skim through world-class books on Philosophy" src="http://topyaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Skim-through-world-class-books-on-Philosophy.jpg" width="450" height="300" /></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">There have been many serials in the history of world television that have ruled the roost for quite an extensive period just because of their gutsy narrative and creative plots. Many serials pick up in the beginning, make big money during the early seasons but lose popularity within no time when script-writers and directors end up confusing the audiences with mingled up storylines and nonsensical plots. Few serials, over the decades, have managed to top the charts throughout and end the long stories in a perfect way. Here is a list of <a href="http://topyaps.com/">top 10</a> <b>TV Series</b> that had a perfect ending.</p>
