Michael Phelps - Olympics Rio 2016

Waking up to see this in the morning (Sri Lankan time 10th August 2016) ^_^


21 Olympic Gold Medals and counting... ^_^ He is no wonder the most decorated Olympian of all time!!
I personally love the Butterfly stroke and because of him I love it more!

* About the above picture.. When someone see this while being in the race they realize already the race is over ;) He might have thought "I must watch how beautiful he swims" :D

It is indeed a nice sight to see Michael Phelps swimming! He has not lost often in the Olympics.


 “I was pretty fired up after that race,” Phelps said, adding, “I didn’t say anything to anybody else, but there wasn’t a shot in hell I was losing that tonight.”

 I feel that Michael Phelps was actually created for swimming by the gods of water O:)

And on the podium during the awarding ceremony he stood up with little teary eyes. 

 Wish to see Phelps’s legacy continues throughout in the beautiful world of swimming...


I saw this comment somewhere in the internet and thought it's interesting :D
"How to become stupid? : Challenge Michael Phelps!"

Terence ❤

He is a dust-talent Disney fairy, who hands out pixie dust to other fairies each day so they may do their magic, and is calm and kind.  So he is a dust-keeper sparrow man. He has blonde hair and blue eyes and wears an acorn cap on his head.

Terence is Tinker Bell's best friend. He has a strong crush on her, which she is unaware of. (As a male fairy, he is sometimes referred to as a "sparrow man", a term Disney invented in an attempt to avoid calling them "fairies"). He is generally calm and logical, who thinks things through carefully, unlike Tinkerbell.

 He seems to have an eye for detail and appreciates beautiful things...

How to keep a GitHub fork repository up to date?

You might come across many instances where you will have to fork a github repository and commit your changes as pull requests to the original master repository.

If you are to commit changes every now and then you need to make sure that your local repository is up to date with the master repository. Else if there are other commits made by users and you do not have the recent changes you might get commit conflicts once you make a pull request.

So to avoid this, you need to follow two steps.

1. Configure a remote pointing to the original repository.
2. Sync your local repository with original repo.

Configure a remote pointing to the original repository
You can configure a remote  like below.

1. Open the terminal and go to your local repository location.
Next type below command.
You can replace content with the url of your original repository.

git remote add upstream https://github.com/yourRepository.git

2. Next you can verify that a remote upstream repository got added, by giving following command.

git remote -v

  This command should list down the remote you added in previous step.

Sync your local repository with original repo
After you completed creating a remote upstream, now you can update your local repository by giving following commands.

1. Below command will fetch all the changes/updates of your original repository.

  git fetch upstream

2. Next checkout your local master branch.

 git checkout master

3. Next merge the changes of your upstream repo to your local repo.
This will sync your forked local repository without giving up your local changes.

git merge upstream/master
