Torrents

, , ,

What's happening to all the major torrent sites? The Pirate Bay is a bit rubbish nowadays, Mininova has 'gone legal' and Isohunt is looking to follow.

I've just found a list of alternatives to Mininova, published by Torrent Freak. The list includes Kickass Torrents and BT Junkie - but none of the ten suggested sites even have a real copy of The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus on there. Gutted.

The worst part about it all is that I wouldn't mind so much if there was actually a good quality legal source where I could purchase hi-definition copies of movies... but there's not.

If anyone has any serious recommendations of where I should be looking for illegal downloads, let me know in the comments - or if you're paranoid that the Internet Police will catch you, send me a message.

Vibe Snipe

I love getting hate mail on my blog. Everyone should be able to have their opinion and freedom of speech - but if you're going to stand up and be heard, at least have the guts to put a name down too.

If you hate me immensely, but still loves to read my blog, please continue your messages of hate - it's good that you have an outlet - but in future, comments are closed to registered users only.

Mahout

, , , ...

Image of a man stood on an elephant underwater.

Nazroo, a mahout (elephant driver), poses for a portrait while taking his elephant, Rajan, out for a swim in front of Radha Nagar Beach in Havelock, Andaman Islands. Rajan is one of the few elephants in Havelock that can swim, so when he is not dragging timber in the forest he is used as a tourist attraction. The relationship between the mahout and his elephant usually lasts for their entire lives, creating an extremely strong tie between the animal and the human being.
