Here are some news related to world Records


A 14-year-old Khagendra Thapa Magar, a Nepali boy who is only 50 centimeters (20 inches) tall and weighs only 4.5 kilograms has been put forward for a Guinness world record as the world's smallest person. Already a Jordanian boy holds a record in the Guinness Book of World Records and he is 25.5 inches tall. But Khagendra is 5.5 inches smaller than the Jordanian guy, so his parents have send application to the Guinness Book of World Records. Khagendra Thapa Magar Foundation is an organization set up to collect funds for the boy. His father has decided to show him in exhibitions to collect fund for his education, health and future. He was only 600 grams at birth and his hobbies include playing with pebbles and worshipping Buddha.
Maria Esther de Capovilla, the oldest person on Earth, according to Guinness World Records, has died at 116 years of age. She Born on Sept. 14, 1889 (the same year as Charlie Chaplin and Adolf Hitler born), Capovilla was married in 1917 and widowed in 1949. Guinness World Records will have to make an official for all practical purposes; the next oldest person is going to be presumed to be Elizabeth Bolden, She is 116, but she was 11 months younger than Capovilla. Capovilla was confirmed as the oldest living person on Dec. 9, 2005, after her family sent details of her birth and marriage certificates to the British-based publisher. Emiliano Mercado Del Toro, of Puerto Rico, retains the title as oldest man. He turned 115 last Monday. 3 of Capovilla's 5 children are still alive, along with 12 grandchildren, 20 great-grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren.


Pictured above is Will Sharp fromWashington, wearing 121 t-shirts. He wore them as part of a world record attempt for wearing the most t-shirts at the same time. The old record of 107 was set in the UK last year. Sans t-shirts, Will Sharp weighed 210lbs. With t-shirts he weighed 285lbs. Judging by the pictures of him sweating he probably lost a few pounds whilst wearing them.

My home Pilliaiyar (Ganesh)


Our Pillaiyar (Ganesh)

This is Hashu (Harshavarthini) my uncle’s 2 and half year daughter. Last evening she visits my place. It was surprise to have here yesterday; she was very respectful on us. She sings devotional song in her sweet voice before the pillaiyar statue and she used to talk with the statue and tell to eat pillaiyar. There was a Pillaiyar procession from our nearest Piliaiyar temple, she went and brought the sacred ash put it on our forehead, she was very quiet. So happy to see her playing and her innocent speech. It’s an awesome evening for me. She like's to wear only Pants and Top’s; it’s a month long she wears gown and skirts, and also avoide to put bangles and pottu (dot on forehead) if she wears Pants. In this small age itself she likes to wear modern dress, I think sure she will become a modern girl soon.

An achievement in Tamil Film History


Shivaji Productions a film company of great actor Shivaji Ganeshan. By celebrating its golden jubilee last year. It produced a movie Chandramukhi as Super Star Rajini Kanth as hero. In this movie Prabhu, Jothika, Nayantara, Vadivelu and more have acted. It was directed by P.Vasu and music by Vidhyasagar.

This movie was released in April 14 last year (2005) on Tamil New Year Day. It released above 200 theaters all over World. This movie succeeds by crossing for 200 days in 57 theaters in Tamil Nadu. In 7 theaters it crossed 300 days. But in Chennai’s Shanthi Theater alone chandramukhi is still running. Today it reached its 500th day and still running. This was a new achievement in Tamil Film History. Before this Haridhas in the only Tamil film, which achieved by running for long days as 365 (one year), it was acted by Thiyagaraja Bagavathar. That achievement was break by our Superstar’s Chandramuke and created a new record.

It haven’t stopped here, Chandramukhi has done another achievement silently. As we know the movies, which was acted by Rajinkanth, have a big welcome in Japan. Chandramukhi has translated in Japanese language. It releasing form today. First of all this film’s success should go to Jothika, who brings an excellent acting. In today’s situation of pirate VCD’s around every corner, a film runs successfully for 100 day is wonder. Chandramukhi’s record break is a head smash for the pirate VCD distributors and its supporters. Hope every good movie like this should reach our people in a good way thought standard theaters. If the theater owners reduce there high fare on tickets, sure the pirate CD’s will destroy, and more poor people will visit theaters and enjoy. And the Tamil Nadu government’s order for No-Entertainment tax for movies, which have Tamil names and tax-free for low budget films, will encourage the film industry to grow more.

Wish u all a Happy Vinayagar Chadurthi

New Enemies


Mosquito!! Mosquito!! If we tell this name in chennai every one fear like hearing some terrorist name. Like how it threat’s our people. For this we also not an exception. Our latest enemy is blood-sucking Mosquitoes, in our place after 6pm we are like home arrest people, can’t go out of our house, if we open our door there will be a bunch of mosquitoes waiting like war soldiers to attack us. You know we are putting separate budget for these small mosquitoes. There are thick plants in front of our house (un constructed ground!), in the recent rain many mosquitoes have hatch eggs in the plants and developed they kids. In day times we can’t see any, but when the sky get dark, they come out, and start they work. We use many Tec nick to kill them, but no use, they are very strong. You know they are brilliant actors, if we spray the Hit medicine on them, they used to fall down and when the power goes they started to dance. Then we use the coil, even thought to no use, when the time reach 6 switch on the liquidators, the only medicine protect us form the Mosquito’s are Odomos, before we leave to seep we use this cream on our hands, legs, and face to avoid the bite. Last night found a new way of treatment, by taking the mosquito mat in a compus, burn the mate and spread the smoke all over the room, with in 15 minutes every one fall down we sweep it and put it outside the house. Even though we put mosquito net for windows.

Why we (the people of Tamil Nadu) suddenly afraid of mosquitoes now? Chikungunya.

As of August 2006, nearly 1 lakh people were affected in Tamil Nadu, by this new disease, Chennai, is one of the worst affected. Mostly this disease are worst in suburbs of chennai like kottivakam (just a 200 meter form my house), thorappakam, kanthanjavadi, Thambram ect…for this many child’s are affected. News had come that 2 kids were died in this disease in north chennai, but the health minister who objected this news said that Chikungunya has affected Tamil Nadu 40 years ago. Now the patients who affected by this disease, has reached 1200 a day in chennai & its suburbs. In south & western districts of TN the disease is spreading quickly. The sad thing was without knowing the seriousness of the dieses the politicians are arguing about the previews government, and hiding the truth. The central health minister as an MP form TN, not bringing the seriousness of this, we can’t get full relief form the disease. As we are near the monsoon, if they dint control the disease now, the situation will be worst.

What is Chikungunya? Chikungunya is a relatively rare form of viral fever caused by an alpha virus that is spread by mosquito bites from the Aedes aegypti mosquito. Its attacks? Infection in Aedes aegypti salivary glands is symptomatic and life long. Humans are subjected to severe joint pain. Transmitted by Aedes aegypti in human transmission highly infectious. Characterized by sudden onset of chills and fever, headache, arthralgia, arthritis and rash. Many rarely cause hemorrhagic fever, esp. in children. Few deaths, though symptoms may persist for several weeks. Currently there are no vaccines available. Be careful on mosquitoes, that all I can tell!!
