Subtitles Tips

Being an avid frequent downloader (theft)of DVDrip movies from torrents portal like http://www.piratebay.org et al, I'd like to share some of my experience with my fellow bloggers on how to watch movies with subtiles for Divx movies and the like.
Although many downloadable movies whether torrent or from sites like rapidshare,com, megaupload.com provided subtitles, there are some where you its missing. Since, I am that type of person who wanna comprehend 100% of the story behind the movie its essential for me to view them in subtitle. Though, I can make out most of the spoken likes, I prefer watching with the subtitles.

Following are the tips which I found over the internet:
Step 1: First of all download a subtitle program called VS Filter (VobSub )from here or just search it in google.
Step 2: Install that software.
Step 3: Now, go to google.com and search for the subtitle text file. Use the keyword like movie name + subtitles (You will find it easily)
Step 4: Copy that subtitle file in your movie folder and rename it with the name of the movie(Eg: If your movie name is avatar.avi, rename your subtitle file with avatar.srt) Remember the most important thing is the movie name should be same with the subtitle name. There should be difference only in the extension i.e .avi and .srt
Step 5: Job done. Open your movie and you can watch with the subtitles flowing smoothly all the way.

Note: Though this is a good gimmick, yet sometimes you may find mismatch subtitles. That is, the timing of the movie and the subtitle may not be in a harmony. I've also another suggestion for such issues, but for now, I'll finish here. I'll try to post the solutions for such issues in my subsequent blog.

Sweet Child O' Mine

Prologue
I was unable to contribute to the blogosphere since last summer (somwhere in Mar/April) due to the disconnection of my BSNL Broadband services. According to them, I was the defaulter as I didn't care about the bills. However, what could I do since I have never received the billing certificate. Whatever, its been a hectic season then, and since then I felt like a fish out of water with no cyber activities. Fortunately now I am able to browse at the speed of snail thanks to Reliance Webworld. I felt a million times to write an article or two for my blog, but as stated before my connection is like wait till you rot and hence I never did. Well, now things changed and I will do what I have to do. To Blog or not to blog? To blog.
Into the subject


Time goes on and so is life. If life goes on and if we are true human, then matrimony is inevitable. And thus, Mrs. Morgoth came into the picture last April unofficially. Even though, our marriage was against the regular norm of the Church, the Almighty Father is however, merciful and blessed me with a son as the firstborn in the month of Nov. Now, I am a true father, no longer an ordinary specimem of a homo sapiens but a responsible parent. I could no longer booze and fags like a college fellows. According to our tradition, I am a real man now. If a man gets just a wife, he's still not regarded as a man. Neither is he regarded as a real man if he got just daughter and not the other sex. However, if his wife bore him a son especially as the firstborn, then he is definitely male(remember the old punchline of Bajaj Pulsar)
Love @ first sight

I never believed in Love at first sight. But when my little angel ascended onto me, I do. Why? I do not have an adequate answer for that. Why does God chose the Israelites as his nation? Was it because they were better than the others? No. Was it because the fear God? No. No there is no reason at all. God chose them because he did. Thats exactly what came in my mind when my junior see this world. Why did I love him? I love him because I have to. Its the only reason why I am here in this planet.
The big irony with me is that, before I dread infant. I had this phobia during childhood while watching some horror flicks in which the antagonist was an infant zombie. The memory remains throughout my life and I not only dare to touch newborn infant but also scare to look at them. But when that infant is from my own seed, thing changed and the impossible become possible. These days, I keep limiting my hours for work and other activities and spent more and more hours with him which even create jealousy from the mother. Now, I guess I really understand what is a mother love. This had created a great awareness for me in my work for punishment of my students. Previously I used to peform corporal punishment in a way or two. But, now I am unable to undergo such treatment as I saw my students with the eyes of their parents. Thank you God for doing this.
Parenting

I may feel a bit courageous to write something regarding parenting as my kid is just a few months old. But then, now matter how old is your offspring you are a parent nonetheless, so who cares!! This is the subject in which I had no formal education nor informal too. But nature is kind and I am beginning to believe in the saying "Necessity is the mother of invention" Yes, without learning I adjust myself according to the latest development day by day. I aint shy to state that I hadn't perform what most Mizo people will say Thaibawi work.(washing infant clothes drenched with excreta etc). Its not because I am considering myself machismo or manly. Its because I do not believe that external cleanliness is next to godliness.
Nevertheless there are hell lotta work to do other than such handiwork. I prided myself in making lullaby for my son. There are times, endless times when my spouse is unable to put the baby to sleep. In fact, I am the one who do the job 90% or above. How did I do? You will never believe this.
I tried different tactics and strategies. I started with rocking the cradle. Failed. Singing a lullaby live. Failed. Tried classical compositions like Beethoven, Mozart etc. Failed. Hindi filmi. Failed. Then, one day I try with the famous chorus : Hallelujah (Handel). It was a partial success. But my victory came on the second week from its birth. How? With Rock and Roll. I find its hard to believe myself. I tried with a few numbers from one of the greatest rock band on earth Guns N Roses. I was shocked and at the same time relieved when my boy went to a deep and peaceful sleep when the riffs, solos and lyrics of the multi-platinum single Sweet Child O Mine was played. Maybe he envisioned himself as the sweet child. I do not know. He didn;t like the other tracks like November Rain, Don't Cry or Civil War, but with Sweet Child O Mine, he poses no problem for the family at all. Since then, whenever he started crying, I keep playing the track in my cellphone Music Player or whatever is available nearby.
I have read many articles regarding responses of music by plants, animals and infant. But most writers and researchers claimed that sweet classical(western & Indian) music is the positive one in developing the living tissues. But, my boy prefer the harmonious solos and riffs of ROCK.
