TUPAC SHAKUR : TIGER OF RAPPING

HEY GUYS THIS A BLOG ABOUT THE “TIGER OF RAPPING”....... 2PAC SHAKUR, HOPE YOU LIKE IT!!!!!!!

Tupac Amaru Shakur (/ˈtuːpɑːk ʃəˈkʊər/ TOO-pahk shə-KOOR)[2] (born Lesane Parish Crooks; June 16, 1971 – September 13, 1996), also known by his stage names 2Pac and Makaveli, was an American rapper, poet and actor.[3]Shakur sold over 75 million records worldwide, making him one of the best-selling music artists of all time.[4] His double disc albums All Eyez on Me (1996) and his Greatest Hits (1998) are among the best-selling albums in the United States.[5] Shakur is consistently ranked as one of the greatest and most influential rappers of all time[6] and he has been listed and ranked as one of the greatest artists of any genre by many publications, including Rolling Stone, which ranked him 86th on its list of The 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.[7] On April 7, 2017, Shakur was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility.[8]

Shakur began his career as a roadie, backup dancer and MC for the alternative hip hop group Digital Underground, eventually branching off as a solo artist.[9][10][11] Most of the themes in Shakur's songs revolved around the violence and hardship in inner cities, racism, and other social issues. Both of his parents and several other people in his family were members of the Black Panther Party, whose ideals were reflected in his songs. During the latter part of his career, Shakur was a vocal participant during the East Coast–West Coast hip hop rivalry, becoming involved in conflicts with other rappers, producers, and record-label staff members, most notably The Notorious B.I.G. and his label, Bad Boy Records.[12] Aside from his career in music, Shakur was also an actor, starring in six films and one TV show in the 1990s, including Poetic Justice (1993), Gang Related (1997) and Gridlock'd (1997).

On September 7, 1996, Shakur was shot four times in a drive-by shooting at the intersection of Flamingo Road and Koval Lane in Las Vegas, Nevada.[13] He was taken to the University Medical Center of Southern Nevada, where he died from his injuries six days later.[14]

EARLY LIFE:

2PAC, was born on June 16, 1971, in the East Harlem section of Manhattan in New York City.[15] His birth name was Lesane Parish Crooks,[16][17][18] but in 1972, he was renamed after Túpac Amaru II,[19][20] the 18th-century Peruvianrevolutionary who was executed after leading an indigenous uprising against Spanish rule.[21] Shakur was African American.[22]

His mother Afeni Shakur (born Alice Faye Williams in North Carolina) and his father Billy Garland were active members of the Black Panther Party in New York in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Lesane was born a month after his mother was acquitted of more than 150 charges of "Conspiracy against the United States government and New York landmarks" in the New York Panther 21 trial.[23][24]

Many people in Shakur's life were involved with the Black Liberation Army; some were convicted of serious criminal offenses and imprisoned, including his mother. His godfather, Elmer "Geronimo" Pratt, a high-ranking Black Panther, was convicted of murdering a school teacher during a 1968 robbery, although his sentence was later overturned. His stepfather, Mutulu Shakur, spent four years at large on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list beginning in 1982. Mutulu was wanted for having helped his friend (no relation) Assata Shakur (also known as Joanne Chesimard), Tupac's godmother, to escape from a penitentiary in New Jersey in 1979. She had been imprisoned since 1977 for killing a state trooper in 1973. She lived as a fugitive for several years before gaining asylum in Cuba in 1985. Mutulu was caught in 1986 and eventually imprisoned for the 1981 robbery of a Brinks armored truck in which two police officers and a guard were killed.[25]

Shakur had an older stepbrother, Mopreme "Komani" Shakur, and a half-sister, Sekyiwa, two years his junior. Mopreme performed in many of his recordings.[26] In 1986, his family moved to Baltimore, Maryland.[27] After completing his second year at Paul Laurence Dunbar High School, he transferred to the Baltimore School for the Arts. There he studied acting, poetry, jazz, and ballet.[28] He performed in Shakespeare plays and in the role of the Mouse King in the ballet The Nutcracker.[25] Shakur, accompanied by one of his friends, Dana "Mouse" Smith, as his beatbox, won many rap competitions and was considered to be the best rapper in his school.[29] He was remembered as one of the most popular kids in his school because of his sense of humor, superior rapping skills, and ability to mix with all crowds.[30]

Shakur developed a close friendship with Jada Pinkett (later Jada Pinkett Smith) that lasted until his death. In the documentary Tupac: Resurrection, Shakur says, "Jada is my heart. She will be my friend for my whole life." Pinkett Smith calls him "one of my best friends. He was like a brother. It was beyond friendship for us. The type of relationship we had, you only get that once in a lifetime." A poem written by Shakur titled "Jada" appears in his book, The Rose That Grew from Concrete, which also includes a poem dedicated to Pinkett Smith called "The Tears in Cupid's Eyes." During his time in art school, Shakur became affiliated with the Baltimore Young Communist League USA.[31][32] He began dating the daughter of the director of the local chapter of the Communist Party USA.[33]

In 1988, Shakur and his family moved to Marin City, California, a suburban community located 5 miles (8 km) north of San Francisco.[27] He attended Tamalpais High School in nearby Mill Valley.[34] Shakur contributed to the school's drama department by performing in several productions. In an English class, Shakur wrote a paper, "Conquering All Obstacles," in which he said: "our raps, not the sorry story raps everyone is so tired of. They are about what happens in the real world. Our goal is [to] have people relate to our raps, making it easier to see what really is happening out there. Even more important, what we may do to better our world."[35]He began attending the poetry classes of Leila Steinberg in 1989.[36] That same year, Steinberg organized a concert with a former group of Shakur's, "Strictly Dope"; the concert led to him being signed with Atron Gregory. He set him up as a roadie and backup dancer with the hip hop group Digital Underground in 1990.

DEATH OF THE “LEGEND” :

On the night of September 7, 1996, Shakur attended the Bruce Seldon vs. Mike Tyson boxing match with Suge Knight at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. After leaving the match, one of Knight's associates spotted Orlando "Baby Lane" Anderson, an alleged Crips gang member from Compton, California, in the MGM Grand lobby. Earlier that year, Anderson and a group of Crips had robbed a member of Death Row's entourage in a Foot Locker store. Knight's associate told Shakur, who attacked Anderson. Shakur's entourage, as well as Knight and his followers, assisted in assaulting Anderson. The fight was captured on the hotel's video surveillance. After the brawl, Shakur went with Knight to Death Row–owned Club 662 (now known as restaurant/club Seven). Shakur rode in Knight's 1996 black BMW 750iL sedan as part of a larger convoy, which included many in Shakur's entourage.[145] At 11:00–11:05 p.m. (PDT), they were halted on Las Vegas Boulevard by Metro bicycle police for playing the car stereo too loudly and not having license plates, which were found in the trunk of Knight's car; the party was released a few minutes later without being ticketed.[146] At 11:10 p.m. (PDT), while they were stopped at a red light at the intersection of Flamingo Road and Koval Lane in front of the Maxim Hotel, a vehicle occupied by two women pulled up on their left side. Shakur, who was standing up through the sunroof, exchanged words with the women and invited them to Club 662.[146] At 11:15 p.m. (PDT), a white, four-door, late-model Cadillac with unknown occupants pulled up to the sedan's right side. Someone inside rolled down a window and rapidly fired gunshots at Shakur. He was hit four times, twice in the chest, once in the arm, and once in the thigh.[147] One of the bullets went into Shakur's right lung.[148] Knight was hit in the head by fragmentation. The bodyguard, Frank Alexander, stated that, when he was about to ride along with the rapper in Knight's car, Shakur asked him to drive the car of Shakur's fiancée, Kidada Jones, instead, in case they needed additional vehicles for the drive from Club 662 to the hotel. The bodyguard reported in his documentary, Before I Wake, that, shortly after the assault, one of the convoy's cars drove off after the assailant but that he never heard from the occupants.[149] After arriving at the scene, police and paramedics took Knight and a wounded Shakur to the University Medical Center of Southern Nevada. Chris Carroll, the first Las Vegas police officer to arrive on the scene, heard Shakur's last words, "fuck you". Carroll reports that he refused to say another word to him or another officer.[150] According to an interview with the music video director Gobi, while at the hospital, Shakur received news from a Death Row marketing employee that the shooters had called the record company and threatened Shakur.[151] Gobi informed the Las Vegas police but said that the police claimed to be understaffed.[151] No attackers came. At the hospital, Shakur was heavily sedated, was placed on life-support machines, and was ultimately put under a barbiturate-induced coma after repeatedly trying to get out of the bed.[14] While in the intensive-care unit, on the afternoon of September 13, 1996, Shakur died from internal bleeding; doctors attempted to revive him but could not stop the hemorrhaging.[14] His mother, Afeni, made the decision to tell the doctors to stop.[148] He was pronounced dead at 4:03 p.m. (PDT).[14] The official causes of death were noted as respiratory failure and cardiopulmonary arrest in connection with multiple gunshot wounds.[14] Shakur's body was cremated the next day. Some of his ashes were purportedly later mixed with marijuana and smoked by members of the Outlawz.[152] However, E.D.I. Mean claimed in an interview in 2014 that, despite his belief at the time that the ashes were those of Shakur, he later found that the ashes did not belong to Shakur, which has led some people to believe that Shakur didn't die at all.[153]

The sector is predicted to grow at an annual rate of 6.8% to ₹28.49 lakh crore (US$440 billion) by 2027 (10% of GDP).[1] In October 2015, India's medical tourism sector was estimated to be worth US$3 billion. It is projected to grow to $7–8 billion by 2020.[2] In 2014, 184,298 foreign patients traveled to India to seek medical treatment.[3]

About 88.90 lakh (8.89 million) foreign tourists arrived in India in 2016 compared to 80.27 lakh (8.027 million) in 2015, recording a growth of 10.7%.[4][5][6] Domestic tourist visits to all states and Union Territories numbered 1,036.35 million in 2012, an increase of 16.5% from 2011.[7] In 2014, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh were the most popular states for tourists.[8] Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Agra and Jaipur have been the five most visited cities of India by foreign tourists during the year 2015. Worldwide, Delhi is ranked at 28 by the number of foreign tourist arrivals, while Mumbai is ranked at 30, Chennai at 43, Agra at 45, Jaipur at 52 and Kolkata at 90.[9]

It mentions that India has quite good air transport (ranked 32nd), particularly given the country’s stage of development, and reasonable ground transport infrastructure (ranked 29th). The country also scores high on natural and cultural resources (ranked 9th).[10] Some other aspects of its tourism infrastructure remain somewhat underdeveloped however. The nation has very few hotel rooms per capita by international comparison and low ATM penetration.[11] The World Tourism Organization reported that India's receipts from tourism during 2012 ranked 16th in the world, and 7th among Asian and Pacific countries.[12]

The Ministry of Tourism designs national policies for the development and promotion of tourism. In the process, the Ministry consults and collaborates with other stakeholders in the sector including various Central Ministries/agencies, state governments, Union Territories and the representatives of the private sector. Concerted efforts are being made to promote new forms of tourism such as rural, cruise, medical and eco-tourism.[13] The Ministry also maintains the Incredible India campaign focused on promoting tourism

LATEST TECHNOLOGIES

HEY GUYS.... THIS IS MY FIRST BLOG AND HOPE YOU LIKE IT!!!!!....

The use of technology is increasing day by day, we all depend on technology  and we use various technologies to accomplish specific tasks in our lives. Today we have various emerging technologies which impact our lives in different ways. Technology is being implemented in almost every section of  our lives  and business structures.  It does not matter which industry you’re dealing in, technology will be of use in a certain manner.  So embracing it and learning how to use technology in what ever we do is very important and recommended.  As the world keeps on developing, technology will be changed, what is working today might not work not be efficient tomorrow. So it is better to stay up-to-date with new emerging technologies and  learn how to embrace and use them in your daily life.

Below Are Some Of The Uses Of Technology Today:

1.   Use of Technology in Business: Today businesses can save money by using technology to perform certain tasks. When you compare the amount of money spent on hiring an individual to perform a certain task and to guarantee delivery on time, it is totally expensive. When it comes to technology a small business can scale out and deliver more with less human resource.

For example: If you operate a manufacturing business, instead of hiring so many people to work in certain section , you can replace that labor with a ”PLC” programmed production line which will automate the all process of manufacturing . The benefits of using a ”PLC” , is that productivity and accuracy will be better and first compared to using individuals.

Lets take another example: For retail inventories, they don’t have to employ more people to manage and keep track the number of inventories. All they have to do is to use database systems which can be accessed remotely. This will make inventory data more accessible to whoever needs it with in the company. This will cut off delays in delivery of this information and makes the work.

In conclusion businesses will need to use technology to speed up their services and cut down on costs. Though technology can’t do certain things, but it reduces on time and money.

2.  The Use of technology in communication:  Unlike in the past when communication was limited to letter writing and waiting for those postal services to deliver your message. Today technology has made the field of communications so easy.  Now you can draft a business message and email it or fax in a second without any delays, the recipient will get the message an they will reply you instantly.

Also technology has made business meetings so simple, with the introduction of video conferencing; you no longer have to worry to be late for a business meeting. Now with this video conferencing technology, you can be in the meeting in a virtual form and engage with your partners directly.

Also technology has made it simple to get feed back from your clients on instant:  This has been aided by the introductions of online business to consumer portals like ’’Facebook Business Pages’’.  As a business, you will can get responses and suggestions from your customers via social network portals.  All you need is to create your business page and promote it, so your clients will always post what they want on your wall and suggest areas of improvement.  This will save you money on direct mail surveys and other means of getting information from your consumers.

vidyo.com : This is a leading provider of personal  tele-presence for big enterprises. Their technology enables HD multipoint video conferencing and video collaboration

4.  Use of technology in education: Today, technology has made a very big change in the education world. With the invention of technological gadgets and mobile apps which helps students learn easily.  Now days you can access a full library via a mobile app on any smart phone or ipad. Before inventing this technology, students had to go to physical libraries to get the information they need. some of these library Apps include

Apps for Education:

. The Library App – It brings the library in your hands.

. My Library: With this app , you can catalog your books by scanning the ISBN with your ipad camera and it helps students get access to free eBooks.

5.   Use of technology in purchasing:  Technology has also made the buying and selling of good so flexible. With the introduction e-payment systems like Paypal.com  and Square Wallet App , users can easily purchase any thing online without living the comfort of their homes.

For you to use paypal , you will have to sign up with the site for free, then connect your debit card details so that money is transferred from your physical bank account to your electronic PayPal account. So when you go to a store like Amazon.com , you can use your PayPal electronic credit to buy anything on AMAZON.COM . This has made purchasing of items so easy.

6.  The Use of technology in agriculture: With the invention of Mobile App for farmers, they can use an App like ”FamGraze” to work faster and be more accurate while in the field and off the field. For example, ”FamGraze” app will help a farmer manage their grass more effectively by suggesting the cheapest feed for their livestock. This app will calculate the amount of grass your animals have in the field. You will need no paper or any spreadsheets to do all this. Saving you more time while in the field.

Then we also have the ” Horse Ration App ” , with this app the farmer accurately calculates the amount of feed t give their horse and avoid the obesity in their animals and health problems which can be cause by less or over feeding.

Then comes the use of technology in manufacturing fertilizers and tools for farmers, all this cuts down on the time and increases productivity. Get these two farmers Apps here

Also technology has changed the agricultural industry by replacing human labor with machines that are operated or controlled by people or other machines.  In the agricultural industry , productivity is a key factor. If production is high the farmer will make more profits so technology has helped farmers replace the old ways of farming with machines that can do the job in time right from the day of planting to the day of harvesting.  Lets take a simple example.  An animal-drawn plow replaced the dig-ging stick. Then later , that plow was replaced by the horse drawn moldboard plow. Currently, we have the large tractors that pull complex tilling machines. But, even these machines are being replaced by no-till or minimum-till farming practices, which reduce the amount of work it takes to prepare the soil for planting.

7.  Use of technology in banking: Now electronic banking moving money has become so simple. The invention of VISA ELECTRON  has made  it simple to move with more money with out having any fears of getting robbed on the way. You can buy any thing with a Visa Electron card, so in this case you don’t have to move with cash.

Banks use the Visa neutral network software to spot fraud and determine which of their customers might default or go bankrupt. This neutral network is very good at spotting patterns, so if your profile looks like that of people who have defaulted, the bank will take action and save you from getting robbed.

8. Use of technology to control and harness natural forces:   Natural forces affect and disrupt human life and daily economic activates.  For example; Floods wash away farmland and homes, they carry out fertile top soil and disrupt the growth of crops. Also fires burn buildings, crops and forests which affect human life. However, technology has enabled humans build large dams which can harbor excess water and use that water to generate power.  Also fire is tamed to heat our homes and process industrial materials. Wind is being used to generate electricity.  We have converted solar energy to power which is being used in homes and businesses.  All this is a result of using technology to control natural forces.

9: Use of technology in transportation:  Transportation is one of the basic areas of technological activity. Both businesses and individuals have benefited from the new technologies in the travel industry. Time is money , so we must have first and efficient means of transport.   Try to imagine life without well developed transportation systems.  I think of transportation in the same light as food, clothing and shelter. It has become a basic need , because we use advanced transport means like cars , trains , airplanes to go to work , to transport goods , to go shopping, to visit friends and families and so much more.   However, the transportation technology has been changing since 1800 to the recent years. Lets take a good example in the picture below.
