Fishes inside an Egg

Biologists at the University of Manchester want help in cracking their miracle discovery of three fish inside a sealed egg. The group found the duck egg in a small pond on a field trip to the French Alps and noticed something moving inside it. When they cracked open the shell, three live minnows were inside. They have enlisted the help of other experts, but despite their extensive combined knowledge, the biologists admit they are baffled. m

School of 71 languages

A Secondary school has pupils that speak in a mind-boggling 71 different languages. Southfield’s Community College in Wandsworth, South London, takes kids who have fled war zones around the world and speak no English. Some have never been to school before. But incredibly the college believed to be the most cosmopolitan in Europe has only three translators. It has 1,300 UK and foreign pupils aged 11-18 and 550 of these arrived in Britain speaking no English. So their first lesson was a crash course in our mother tongue. The pupils are then slowly introduced into mainstream classes, supported by the school’s ethnic minority achievement unit. These children have a burning desire to learn. Despite the language barrier the school’s exam results are improving.

Worst Highway

EnglishRussia.com have posted pictures of a very muddy highway that connects Moscow and Yakutsk. The images were taken over a few days and show around 600 cars that got stuck in the mud. It seems that not much is known about the road. Comments on both Digg and English Russia say that it's a winter road, and not a winter road, completed, and not completed, and of course, you've got people shouting photoshopped.

Me: It is Chikungunya?
Dad: what is the relation between cold and mosquito.
Me: I have a boubt
Dad: you are a genius, don’t know why u only think like this. U must have have drinked some thing chill.
Me: I think! :)) (I always have doubt, if I feel some changes with me).

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!!

How chennai was discovered?

Old photo of chennai Central Railway station

In old movies, they will show the Central Railway station and the LIC building in Anna Salai to introduce the Chennai (Madras). Now there are many building higher then the LIC, we can see many Software companies in every corner of the city. Anna salai ones the horse carts was running through this road, and now many foreign comfortable cars are running. The history of the splendid buildings, and the growth of modern comfortable chennai are very long story. August 22nd (today) our chennai age was 367 years and celebrates Madras Day today. The chennai found like this:

British East Indian Company’s Francis day and Andrew Cogan this two persons created the chennai. Today’s chennai was called as chennaipatanam that time, and then it was called as madraspatanam. Before this, Mylapore, Tripilican, Thiruvanmiyur, Thiruvattriur and many areas are small villages, and chennaipatanam was looked like small small cities. Bushes, forest, trees are surrounded this cities in between the rivers like Cooum and Adyar were run. Above 2000 years of chennaipatanam was doing good business on fragrance cent and garments. After the Portuguese arrive, that started to grow. In 1552 Portuguese settled in Santhome and did business.

In chennaipatanam we got high price garment’s primary elements. By aiming on this the British like to kept they foot here. So they send the two-business man’s Francis day and Andrew Cogan to chennaipatanam. After coming to chennaipatanam they search for a land to build a Trade Center. For that they brought a limited land from the king of Poonthamalee Nayakar, in that land they built East India Company’s trade center and St.George Fort on 22nd August 1639. This marks to create the chennai.

Consider the security of the St.George Fort; they built a wall around the fort. After building the Fort many Europeans came and built houses around the areas of St.George Fort and that part was called as white pattenam. In the outer places, weavers form Andhra settled and it was called as Blackpatnam. After some years this place was changed as George Town.

The northern parts of the St.Gerorge fort are called as chennaipatnam and southern part as Madraspatnam. British’s join these two patnams and called it Madraspatnam and Tamilans call it Chennaipatnam. In 1653 chennaipatnam, was changed as chennai province. After that in1702 Muhal’s, and in 1741 Marathi’s attacked it. In 1746 it was in the hand of French. After it was shifted to British hand, again in 1758 it came in French hand. But within 2 months the British redeemed it. After that, till 1947 the chennai province was in under British control.

Chennai province was renamed as Tamil Nadu in 1968. Like this the name Madras was changed as Chennai in 1997. Chennai city, which was grown as population of 30,000, have crossed 60 lakh (6milion) now. The chennai city was extending day-by-day. It was how the chennai discovered. The chennai, which was found on 1639, was reaching its 367 years of age. Every year the citizen of chennai celebrating Chennai (Madras) Day for a week long, there will be many functions this week, which tells about chennai and its tradition.

Flood danger in 11 districts of Tamil Nadu

Cauvery one of the drought less river in south India, which grows in Coorg district in Karnataka, flows through Tamil Nadu and end in Bay of Bengal. It also known as South Ganga. Everyone knows we (Tamil Nadu) face big problem in sharing Cauvery between Karnataka & Tamil Nadu every year. They never release water, we used to urge many times, But last year it was changed and every one in Tamil Nadu pray that Karnataka should stop releasing water form its dam, because of heavy rain in Karnataka & delta areas of Tamil Nadu. So the largest reservoir Mettur Dam in Tamil Nadu was over flowed and created a flood situation in delta districts of Tamil Nadu. Many districts have affected and the houses near the Cauvery delta has sink in the flood, even loss of lives. The flood inundated paddy fields and damaged the crop loss in the delta heartland is much. For the first time in 15 years, Mettur reservoir received 2lakh cusecs and discharged the same quantum of water last October.

On August 2nd 2006 the Mettur reservoir created a Record in its life history, by storing water above100 feet for 365 days. Since August 2 last year, the dam's level has not fallen below the 100 feet mark and has been remaining till now. This year, the dam has set many hydraulic records between August 2, 2005 and August 2, 2006. It has retained the FRL of 120 feet for 81 days, obliterating the previous record of 79 days set in 1964. Okok I know many of u may already know these, just for remaining you:)

The same flood fear circumstance has created now, by over inflow of water to Mettur reservoir. Monsoon rain has been intensity in recent days in Karnataka, because of this, the important dam’s Kabine and Krishnarajasagar has reached its life size, so the remaining water that comes to this dams are full evacuated. In the last 5 days the water release from the Karnataka dams has reached 80,000 cubic feet per second. In this situation, the water release from Mettur for the delta irrigation has increased from 20 to 22 cubic per second. The water level which was 110 on 15th Aug, has increased 4 feet on a single day (Aug16) and reached its 117 yesterday, and it’s expect to touch its maximum lever of 120 in today. So if it reaches its full level the remaining water must be release form Mettur to avoid any danger for the dam. The 11 delta districts of Tamil nadu are in fear of floods like last year. Hope the situation will not be like Gujarat. See when we struggle for water, Karnataka dints give; now giving with our asking! This is time!!

My steps in new caliper & Independence Day

Today walked some steps with the New Caliper. After 3 correct its better now, actually the fault was on the height of caliper. Compare to my left let, right was little short, so I told him that the caliper for the right should be little higher then the left, so it will be comfort to walk. But he totally changed, he make the right short and left height, now we ask him to correct it, but he told cant do anything, making short is easy but height no way. For me the only option is to add extra sheet of bottom and heels to adjust the equal. I feel little strength, and happy, for these day mom and dad feel very stress to handle me, now there stress will be relief little.Hope to go out and watch the kids after some practice with new caliper.

Yesterday is Independence Day, is it? It was like pongal or diwali. I expect some patriotic programs in TV on Independence, but got only disappointment. There are many Indian have achieved in this 60 years of our independence and many leaders have done much for our country, leaving them I don’t know why the TV channels are relaying the interviews of film actor and actress and movies which are no related between Freedom or any social important. Today many youth and children’s are spending their much free time before TV, at least on this day, if they put freedom related programs, it will be useful for them to know about freedom struggles and achievement of India. My day went like this, tie the flag in our front gate, watched the program of the Prime Minister and Chief Minister, flag hosting in the National TV, which I like, watched the comedy chat-hall (Aarathai Arangam) and a film in evening. What u all did on Independence?

Pledge and a Blog on India

Kalam has suggested 7 promises for the youth to remember for the India’s development 2020, in his last night Independence Day Speech in Television. Let we also take the promise for our Nation on this Independence Day.

1. I realize, I have to set a goal in my life. To achieve the goal, I will acquire the knowledge, I will work hard, and when the problem occurs, I have to defeat the problem and succeed.

2. As a youth of my nation, I will work and work with courage to achieve success in all my tasks and enjoy the success of others.

3. I shall always keep my home, surroundings, my neighbourhood, environment and myself clean and tidy.

4. I realize righteousness in the heart leads to beauty in the character, beauty in the character brings harmony in the home, harmony in the home leads to order in the nation and order in the nation leads to peace in the world.

5. I will lead an honest life free from all corruption and will set an example for others to adopt a righteous way of life.

6. I will light the lamp of knowledge in the nation and ensure that it remains lit forever.

7. I realize, whatever work I do if I do the best, I am contributing towards realizing the vision of developed India 2020.


I have start a Blog about Our India (click here), where I like to write about India’s history, its culture, development, struggle, achievements, wonders, current issues ect... This blog is aimed on children’s to know more about India. Hope to give good information’s for them and u. Pls recommend your kids or your friend’s children’s to visit the Blog (Our India)

BE PROUD TO BE AN INDIAN

Even though there can be fight between us now,
But when we were struggling for freedom.
We all have protested consensually
and brought the Independence.
So we can’t leave you friends
and relatives who are living there,
even though you celebrate the Independence Day,
before a day we celebrate.
It’s our Indian's nature to wish you a.

Happy Independence Day my dears from INDIA & PAKISTAN.

Before we wave the Tricolour this Independence Day, let we understand what it means.

The world others are using flags too. Somewhere a signalman has stopped a train with his red flag. A soldier is ending a battle by holding up the white flag of surrender. A few weeks ago, football fans held up flags to support players at the FIFA World Cup. They are all communicating in one of the oldest ways ever through the language of flags.

The Indians and the Chinese invented flags nearly 3000 years ago. Since then flags have conveyed all kinds of messages. Initially they bore the insignia of Asian and European kings. Peasants always knew a nobleman by his flag. The flag of Richard the Lionheart had three lions on it. By the 15th century, countries had their own flag. Every nation's flag is a coded message about the country's culture and history. Former British colonies like India and the U.S. have horizontal stripes on their flags. Former French colonies usually have vertical-striped flags take Canada for instance. Islamic nations like Pakistan have green in their flags. Communist countries like China use red.

Flags have other meanings too. The white flag with a red cross indicates medical aid and is used by the Red Cross Society. A yellow flag signals an infectious disease, and a red one danger. Every seafarer fears the ship that flies the Jolly Roger the black flag with the skull and crossed bones used by pirates. Even the position of a flag tells a tale. Ships fly their flags upside down when they are in trouble. The flag of the winning country at the Olympics flies higher than the rest. But all the flags in front of the United Nations headquarters fly at the same height, for, all nations are equal. Ships have a system of communication using flags at different positions. This is called semaphore. A flag may look like a simple, brightly patterned piece of cloth. But it tells a complex story.

About our Flag

The Indian flag was designed as a symbol of freedom. The late Prime Minister Nehru called it a flag not only of freedom for us, but a symbol of freedom to all people. The flag is a horizontal tricolor in equal proportion of deep saffron on the top, white in the middle and dark green at the bottom. The ratio of the width to the length of the flag is two is to three. In the centre of the white band, there is a wheel in navy blue to indicate the Dharma Chakra, the wheel of law in the Sarnath Lion Capital. Its diameter approximates the width of the white band and it has 24 spokes. The saffron stands for courage, sacrifice and the spirit of renunciation; the white, for purity and truth; the green for faith and fertility.

When we salute the flag this Independence Day, we are keeping up a tradition. The Tricolour will remind us of your nations past and our present way of life, we will be speaking the language of flags.

Save a school for our future generation

This is the current situation of the Rasoolpura School

Zilla Parishad High School is the biggest government school in Rasoolpura, Hydrabad. Unfortunately, the existing infrastructure at the school is woefully inadequate and does not even cater to the existing number of students (at least 700), leave aside the new enrolments.

The schools original land space was 6,000 sq yards, but in recent years it was encroached illegally by land grabbers and it reduced to 2,000 sq yards. Now it has been changed into a garbage dump and is also used as public toilet and anti-social activities. So to stop these, the Bhumi (an NGO which formed my a group of youth’s) has planed to construct compound wall and bathroom, to secure the land from encroachment. Like how we (India) got independence in midnight, this construction will also start on Aug 14th midnight and end on the next day (Aug 15th) morning 8am. This project will cost them around 5 laksh and they managed to raise a Lakh. If you are interested to do some help for your society pls u are wecome. It doesn’t matter how much, but if you are willing to help little? Let they know your response as soon as possible as because there are less days. If u need further details and information about money transfer, mail my Friend Shuuro (who is involved in this group) : shuuro@gmail.com or contact 919866609953.

The biggest benefit we get form our help is to motivating over 20,000 child labors to go school. You can get more details of the project here. Our little helps are the steps for our India's development.

How Wield am I and How about you?

My lovely Friend Arjuna has tagged me

Five Wierd things about me:

Kindle: If some one talk to me very kindle sure I will melt. This is the plus point for my cousins. If they need to get some work form me they used to flow the love, after their work is finish, they will not hear my words and just tell kojam iruna (just wait brother). If anyone tell me something kindle, I use to hope what they said is true. If I come to know that was false, I can’t control my mind, sit sadly and think, why are we so innocent, I dint have sense.

Obey the rules: (just like Anniyan ambi). It’s from my childhood. In school day, I like to go in time for school, in evening I expect my mom to be near gate as soon as our evening prayer finish. Because I don’t like to wait out side my school gate till she pickup me. I like to obey the traffic rules; it can be my dad or bro who ever it can be, if they cross the traffic rules I don’t like and scold. If some time the signal was in Red and road was empty, my dad tries to cross it, but I strictly tell him we should not. He show other’s for the example of against the rule, but I deny him that if they fall in the pit, we should also fall on that.

Care on films : I used to avoid seeing movies in piracy CD’s, every one of my family used to watch it, but I will not and scold them, if u continue watching the movies in CD, in a situation their will be no films to release. Who is hearing my words, I like to watch movies only in theater, but my bad luck, I can’t go to theaters, except Drive-in. so I have a policy, to watch movies in CD only after the movie cross 100th day of release. I also try to avoid downloading songs form Internet, and buy original.

Time: I am person who check the time every at least once in 15 or 20-minutes. I have fixed time for eat, read, watch TV, listen music, walking ect…. If some one tell me that I will finish this in this time, I expect it on time. It also fit for me. When I was suppose to do any work for others, the first thing I ask them was, when I have to finish it, so it will be easy for me to put plan and finish. If I have any disturbance in my plan, I get very angry, (some times I too have cried for it).

Sight: Is there any life with out sight. I am a young who likes to visit Beaches and restaurants every Sunday to Sight beautiful girls. What a beauties! Don’t know why the girls whom I look are very beautiful;). If we go beach, my dad used to go walking, so I was alone sitting in the car, and watching girls (I think there is nothing wrong, in seeing any person or any thing looks beautiful), who knows even my dream girl can be their. Not only seeing girls, what ever it can be, if it impress my hear I watch. I have much beautiful love and kissing dreams many days.

Worry & Happy

In my life, if I was happy next movement their will some worry. Worry & Happy are equal parts of our life, but it’s playing well with my life. My chill dint continue…

Yesterday when my dad was driving my brothers Bike he was involve in small accident. Purely there is no fault on him; the van, which was passing in front of him, put a sudden brake to avoid hitting the underground drainage suspense. My dad also put sudden brake and when he was trying to control, another bike, which come to his side, also put bake, but that man loss his control and fall on my dad’s bike and my fall down. In this my dad got injure on his knee, lips and half teeth has broken. Good time the injure was mild.

In this what was a nice thing means, the person who fall on my dad was a doctor. So he helps him and took him to his hospital where he was working and did medical treatment for him. I was really appreciating his kind hear, if some other hit us, they will try to escape, but this person, being a doctor who realize the pain of my dad, accepted, that the accident was created by losing his control. I don’t know how many people are they to accept their fault like him, many will try to argue only to deny their fault. When I was worrying about my dad, I was little happy their are some people like him to help others. My dad have very little pain on his lips and teeth, but the injure in his knee was very pain, he feel very hard to walk, the knee was swelling. I was shock & upset when I saw him in bandage, but I dint show out, if he see me worry and be sad, that pain will be big than his pain from wound. Being a diabetes patient I know if any injure happen it will take time to get cure. I was Praying to God that his injure should cure soon with out any pain. Pls Friends, u too pray for dad, he will be Happy if u do it.

You all were a shoulder for me to cry,
When ever I need a support.

You share with me form across miles,
to make me joy and feel warm smiles.
I have forget what’s important to you,
But you remember what’s important to me.
You can hear my fear, which was hidden,
inside my heart and try to easy my fear.

I was shy on the phone but you would still call,
and enquire about my health and life.
U call and discuss what we wanted to be
and u know how I felt and how happy I was.
I could tell you all my dreams,
and you would keep on listen to me.

You know how I feel,
when you touch my heart with your words.

and I know you feel the pain I never shown.
Soon u cracks me with laughter,
and solaces my pain with your kindness.

I am always thankful for you friends,

These words are not mine, but it was arranged by me
To wish my friend’s a HAPPY FRIENDSHIP DAY

Mistakes make me fear

As u all know that my caliper was broken and it’s gone a month I walked. Waiting for 2 week for the guy to make the caliper and finally he brought it last night. In my first view itself I thought this one should be difficult for me, as I thought it has many difference compare to my last one. I can’t even stand with that, and it was weight too. Really I was feared, that I have lost my balance or its caliper’s problem. When we compare with last one, this one was very broad and some curves are tight and some are loose. So again he took it for correction, I don’t how many days he will took for correct the mistake. My mom was also worried, when I can’t stand on that. I think if he brought back also, it will take at least a month to settle with that. I pray it should not be very hard for me to walk with the new. I missed my walk and lose the walking freedom for a month long now.

Colored Clouds

So Beautiful Sky

Rare, mother-of-pearl colored clouds caused by extreme weather conditions above Antarctica are a possible indication of global warming.

Known as nacreous clouds, the spectacular formations showing delicate wisps of colors were photographed in the sky over an Australian meteorological base at Mawson Station on July 25. Such clouds are occasionally produced by air rising over Arctic and Antarctic mountains in high polar latitudes during winter. Nacreous clouds can only form in temperatures lower than minus 80 degrees Celsius.

A weather balloon in the vicinity of the clouds in the stratosphere about 20 km above the Earth's surface measured temperatures as low as minus 87 Centigrade. These rarely seen clouds, also known as polar stratospheric clouds, were more than just a curiosity. They reveal extreme conditions in the atmosphere, and promote chemical changes that lead to destruction of vital stratospheric ozone. Temperatures in the stratosphere, between 8 and 50 km above Earth, would be expected to drop as global warming increases. Over that time there has been a small decrease in temperature and that change is actually occurring faster than the warming at the surface of the Earth. This delicate cloud colors are created at sunset when fading light passes through tiny water-ice crystals blown along on strong jets of stratospheric air. at the same height winds were measured blowing at almost 230 km/h.

Culture of Acid attack

Acid was a chemical, which used for domestic and industrials purpose. Acid is dangerous liquid; we have to handle it safely, or it will affect our tissue, damaging respiratory organs, eyes, skin and intestines. We have been reading in newspapers, watching in TV (mostly in the films), where the acid are used illegally for attacking humans, some even fill the acid in the empty egg cover and pore on the face. According to Wikipedia, Acid attacks are primarily occur in the parts of South Asian countries, especially in Bangladesh.

Acid throwing remains a major problem in Bangladesh. Mostly these attacks are pointing women’s. For example If a girl refused the man’s proposal or avoid the sexual relationship with him, she will be punished my acid. The acid eats the skin down to the bones, and the woman's chances of living a normal life after such an attack are virtually nil. The acids which use for these attacks are sulfuric or hydrochloric acid. These women’s never leave their homes without wearing a burka (a black dress cover the whole body) and a piece of cloth on their head covering everything but their eyes. Even the school going children’s were affected in this attacks.

In 2002 the death penalty was introduced by Bangladesh government for throwing acid after the number of victims rose to nearly 500 a year. There is also legislation to force businesses that use acid to store it safely. Even though 267 people were still attacked last year. Very cruel issue was a month old kid Durjay was made to drink acid years back, last week he had heat failure but was revived, after a series surgery now he was breathing through a hole in his throat. When he cries the air wheezes in and out. No one has been brought to justice till now. There are much cases like this in Bangladesh, but many cases have not took to court, because of no money to get a Lawyer to get justice. There is even a special hospital and rehabilitation center for victims in the capital, run by a charity called the Acid Survivors' Foundation. The first known acid attack in Bangladesh took place in 1967, and the number of attacks has been rising constantly since the mid-1990s. The solace news is at least the NGO’s are fighting for these poor soul, God bless u people.

What I have earned in my life is a lovely parent, sweet brothers and sisters and wonderful friends like you. Thanks every body for being with me every time, and share my happy and sad times.

23rd King Pulicasi (Tamil Movie)

Finally went to the palace (I mean Drive-in theater) to see our Emsai Arasan 23rd Pulicasi. The climate was very nice last evening, with cloudiness, and cool breeze form the sea.

Emsai Arasan 23rd Pulicasi was a movie based on the history, the period of the British’s in India. The story: twin princes born to Veera Chozhapura Palayam King, as 23rd child (22 child have born and died), but the queen’s brother, evil mind Rajguru, hold the elder child (who was innocent) with him and separate the young child (who was intelligent) and gave it to kingdom’s doctor to leave into the Vaigai River. Rajguru craves to have the control of the kingdom in his hand, so he grows the elder son as foolish king and keep in his control. The young children was got in the hands of doctor’s wife, and like to take him as their son and give him good education and grow him as a brave and valiant warrior. The elder son was named as 23rd pulikesi, and younger son was Ukkrabuddhan.

By the advice of his Uncle Rajguru, Pulikesi join hands with British and sign many things like digging gold, selling Liquor, and paying tax for them, by these activities the people in the country disliked the heartless king and a revolution force was organized by the young Ukkrabuddan to destroy the rule of Pulikesi, and the king’s relation with British. In this situation, the younger Ukkrabuddan, saw the king, and wonder he was like him and comes to know of the past and realize that Pulikesi was his brother. In between the Commander-in-chief try to kill the king for his cruel rule and the king was caught by revolution force and Ukkrabuddan impersonation and went to kingdom as Pulikesi and changed the rules and broke the hands with British. And the Elder Pulikesi was sent to prison, to realize how was his punishment to the people. Did the twins meet? What happed to the Rajguru is he dies or realizes his fault? What happen to the kingdom? Is the remain story.

Vadivelu as Pulikesi and Ukkrabuddan (twins), an appreciating acts. The vadivelu not even need to talk any dialogue, we laugh when see him on the screen. His funny questions and punishments make us laugh, where ever the scene when the minister with pulikesi, is very comedy, esp. the scenes when Pulikesi get angry on the security for not tell the dialogue rajathi raja, raja marthanda… (Me too forget…. Pls don’t give me any punishment pulikesi) properly, so the minister will tell I will kill him now, where is my sword, sorry king, I have forget to bring the knife. The minister’s face expression make us laugh here.

When vadivelu talk the Kattabomman diagouge to the British captain, it was fully comedy, and the British captain’s Tamil words are very very funny. If Shivaj was lived now, sure Vadivelu will be wised by him. What a acting, riding the horse, showing White flag on the war time to their enemy country, going to the bear hunt, and got shame by the bear. There are two heroines who come only for the song. Nasser as Rajguru, his face expression was very new, and too his hairstyle. Songs take us to the 60’s 70’s, every song are different, the first one Aada va pada va (come to dance, come to sing) was super, vadivelu was lucky to play with the girls in the harem. The female voice in this song was very sweet, esp. the voice for this lyrics alagu rasi nerunge enthan pakkam va da, avasarama ennku oru mutham thaa da….. The background music was wonder, Music director Sabesh-Murali; part was very a big support for this film. The climax statement by the king Pulickesi to the people remembers our politician’s election’s promise. The film was directed by Simbu Devan, we have to appreciate his idea of taking a film based on the history, the clean Tamil dialogue was a plus point for this film. The art director’s settings show the real fort before us. My favorite Director Shanker has produced this film, thanks for taking a whole comedy film. I enjoyed well, by eating Ice-crème, popcorn, even finished the dinner in the theater.

Thanks for read this long post:)

Latest SMS's

After getting a cell I got a new work that is reading the sms and pass it to others. Mostly I get sms from Prasanna and my dad’s colleague Elango. I have a cousin in Chengalpat( a small city near chennai), he dint have TV in his house, so every day morning I will send him the headlines today, through SMS. he is waiting for Chief Minister Karunanidhi to give free tv, as he announced in his election proclamation. Here are some funny sms, I got recently.

SMS’s

Shivaji Punch dialogue: Nee adichaa naan aluven, but Naan adichaa nee almaata, unnai suthi naalu peru aluvaanga (Translated in English: if u beat I will cry, but if I beat u, u will not cry, four people will cry surround you.)

My cousin Punch dialogue: Nee kadichaa naan kattu poaduven, but Naai kadichaa nee nalu uosi thopula suthi poadanum (Translated in English: You bite me, I will put bandage, but, Dog bite you, you have to put four injections surround you navel)

???

If money doesn’t grow on trees, then why do bank have branches?
Why does a round pizza come in a square box?
Why doesn’t glue stick to its bottle?
Why do you still call it building when it’s already built?
If it’s true that we are here to help others, what are others here for?
If you aren’t supposed to drink and drive, why do bars have parking lots?
We are a funny bunch of people living in a seriously funny world! Think about it! Have a thoughtful day

Nice example

A sculptor made a statue of God in a single rock. The withered parts of the rock were used to make footsteps of the temple. The footstep asked the statue, brother we are from the same rock but u r worshipped and I am stamped, why? Statue said I with stood thousands of hit, by the sculptor. But you withered by a single hit. That why I am worshipped & you are not.
So never feel for overcoming hardship, it will surely take us soon to our success.

Prince saved

The two-day tension of the whole nation has got relief last night, when the Army rescued a 5-year-old Prince form a 60-feet pit. The boy prince was playing with his neighbor friends near his house (a village) in Haryana. Some days back some irresponsible people have dig a bore well, and forget to close the pit, so in this situation, the prince fell into the pit. His friend run into the village and said this to his parents, and the village people try to save him out of the pit, but their attempt failed, so the called the army. The army tried very hard to save the child my creating a well near the pit. They send oxygen and food like biscuits, chocolate to for him and using a CCTV system till they save him monitored. In between the rain was disturbing the rescue, and they brought modern machines form mumbai and rescue them at 7.00pm IST.

The whole nation prayed for him including Prime Minister, our prayers dint fail. Every one in the village has thanked the Army for their hard work to rescue the Prince. Prince looked dazed but did not appear to be in any pain, really we have appreciate his brave mind, to live alone in the pit for 2days. His parents was swimming in the happy flood when they saw their son rescue form the pit, I feel how the mind of the parents should be for the last 2days. The Chief Minister of Haryana has announced 2 lakh for his future as a gift. At least hereafter the people who dug pit, should carefully close after their work finish. Thanks dear soldiers for your kind helps.

A statue for Acting

After a weeklong chaos, will the Actor Shivaji Ganesan Statue be laid on the Marina Beach or not, because some have complained that the Shivaji statue is hiding our Mahatma Gandhi’s statue, which is on the side. The case when to count and the Tamil Nadu government brought order on its preferential.

The Statue was open by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and a childhood friend of Shivaji Ganesan, M.Karunanidhi, from a stage near the statue, when he pressed a button the yellow screen opens and Shivaji statue which was made in bronze, shines in the pleasant evening yesterday, with much Film personalities and some political leaders, including Shivaji’s family members surrounded. It was live show in Sun News, an emotional function. There are many statues in the seaside of history persons and some freedom fighters, but Shivaji is the first actor form Film industry to have a statue in the Marina Beach. A request for the Government, u have kept the statue, every one who has love him will be happy; don’t think your work has finished. We all have seen, only government shows interest to bring a statue, but forget to maintain and clean, many black statues are now like half painted in white, the white’s are the waste of crows and some birds. Pls try to clean the statues at least one in three months.

It was happening

A cute little was watching the sky innocently
Form the glass windows, with wonder in his mind
and tears in his eyes what’s that, a fire like a ball
before he think the ball fell near his residence and
burst with tearing sound. the glass window
the glass window smashes into pieces in the vibration
the pieces stab on the cute’s body with holes
the white skin turned into red skin
my heart bleeds, feeling the pain of the cute.

This was an incident happening in the Lebanon; really I worried when I saw that kid photo somewhere.


A country which faces bloody incidents, everyday
Many innocent lives loss every day in the blast's
The Armies go on searching for the humans,
Who are not fit for living, we call them as terrorist
Army’s form countries, sacrifice their lives
Even though, the country (Iraq) dint gets peace to live

Before this, another country is facing a situation like them now
This was different; it was not the fight between Armies and terrorists
This fight was to save two persons, who belongs to Israel,
Who was captured by Lebanon based Hezbollah militants
For this the loss was innocent lives, who were not connected to this
They are playing with bombs and weapons, in this
Many innocents are killing; many leave the country to save the life
Warning comes; the attack will be in full breath
Save your life, go some where, will not care if u die.

Rain and Mom

Dark clouds surrounds my house today evening

It was like a normal day with the hot sun at 38 degree C
By the time of kids arriving their home form the school
The sun hides behind the black clouds,
The raindrop was touching the earth in silent mode
When the mud smell reaches my nose, the rain started heavily
Mom was in a sleep, put me as a security,
If rain comes give a sound, rain is coming
But mom wake up before the word comes form my mouth
Gave a shout at me, and went to pick the clothes,
Which are hanging on the back of our house
Before she pick it have wet half.
One side happy about the surprise rain,
Another side, sad to see mom, worries about the clothes

Green peace caution on Indian Ocean

Green peace is an organization, which was activating Amsterdam as its headquarters in Holland. This organization is struggling to secure the sea living animals and plants. For this, the team was touring all over the world to create awareness.

As one of its part, the green peace’s My Esperanza (A ship) organization starts his tour form Mediterranean region, last month and arrived chennai 2days back. This ship has been halt in the Chennai harbor, to highlight the fragile beauty and vulnerability of India's coastal and marine ecosystems. This is the Esperanza's maiden voyage to India, although the country has played host to the Rainbow Warrior and the Arctic Sunrise, part of the Greenpeace fleet, on three prior occasions. The Esperanza was welcomed with our traditional music (mela dhalam) and flower necklace (poo malai). The message form the team was the Indian Ocean’s resources have some unknown wonders inside it. This organization has rinse and researched, how many plants and how many different lives are living under the sea in the many sea places, in this world. But in Indian Ocean there are lots of wonders have been hide. When compare to other oceans, Indian Ocean is very deep. But in some secured seas, the environments have spots.

In the name of developing tour, in many places the sea resources have been polluting. In the name of improve the economics; the works, which are conduction on the sea, will affect the Nature resources. They warned us, by the Seathusamuthram project, many will get employment opportunity, but, how the other parts of this world were affected by the activities like this, the same situation will also happen here. By digging the sea many coral rocks and rare plant will be destroyed, its an action opposite nature. The green peace organization have been collected the information from there research, in that they have come to know the miscellaneous affect have happen, in the gulf of mannar, sea horse have been hunting. In Orrisa, sea cows have been hunting. In some places more quantity of fishes are catching, many places sewage are mixing in the sea.

It is taking long time to post

From my part

What to do, every one has post about the blog blocks. For my part I will tell some thing. Everyday million of people start blogs, and share their thoughts with others. Mostly the people like me who can’t move out can entertain by this blogs. But the Indian government’s action is against us. For examples the terrorist are realizing many bloody videos through sites and there are many adult links too, why can’t they block these sites. There are many things to block in our nation, first close them esp. the Tasmac (wine shop), to make the drinker family feel happy. At least we are doing this blog usefully to communicate each other in good manner. Some bloggers don’t know the other way to open blog; and just sit don’t know what to do. Jeevansworld is requesting the government to clear the block soon, because we feel hard to read our friends blog.

Use this SiteSite to read the blogs till the blog block clears

Nathu La (border trade)

As soon after the leaders of China and India reopened the boarder trade through the Nathu La pass on July 6, the Chinese Army officers shake hands, hugged and posing for photographs with Indian soldiers, most of them infantrymen form the Black Cat Division raised way back in 1941 to guard the Sino-Indian boarder along Sikkim. After all, 2006 is nothing like 1967, when there was an artillery duel on the 14,400 feet high pass. Border trade was halted long before that in the wake of the 1962 India-China war. These are different time, Last September; our soldiers play volleyball right in Nathu La with Chinese army men. Indian-Chinese soldiers make eye-to-eye talk with each other everyday, that one day the two Asian giants will reopen the trade, and are always on maximum alert. Because of the soldiers Hope in boarder, the Nathu La has reopened.

At the 2 degree C, a drizzle anything, hundreds of guests on the Indian side shiver, but the warmth of the occasion was palpable and trade were eager to take the fabled Silk Route used by merchants in the 19th century. What about the trade itself? The people in Sikkim were amazed that India, and China two powerhouses are hoping to boost business by trading in things like Yak tail & Hair. Most of the things we can import form China are yak tail, yak hair, goatskin, sheepskin, horse, goat, sheep common salt and china clay. India’s export list includes, blankets, bicycle, tea, coffee, liquor, herbs and hardware. There was a long queue of some 80 Indian traders awaiting the nod to be driven over to the China. Many like to import Electronic goods. India-China trade rose to 18.7 billion $. This year it expected to reach 22-23 billion $. Nathu La, the third boarder trading point to be opened, is the most important because it controlled almost 80% of trade in the pre-war era. India likes to have a friendly relationship with neighbor countries, hope this trade must give us some.

India's Young Scientist

An Old man is happy that he sparked the genius in his grand son. The Old man from Chhattisgar (India), was suffered a paralytic stroke six months ago and his physical incapacity made his 16 year old grandson Apurv Mishra to think of an invention to help the disable. The device, Glabenator, was adjudged the world's third best engineering project at the International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) at Indianapolis, US, from May 7 to 13.

ISEF, the world's largest pre-college scientific research-based competition, had 1,500 participants from 47 countries this year. Apurv, a class 12 student of DAV School, Bhubaneswar, was among eight teenage scientists who represented India. “Glabenator” (from glabella, which means the smooth part of the forehead above and between the eyebrows) is a device for the immobilised to operate a mini computer. Originally in the shape of a helmet, Glabenator has gone through many improvisations. The present model, the fifth, can be fitted like a pair of spectacles. A twitch of a muscle is all it takes to operate it. A sensor and a transmitter are connected to it. If the disabled person wants to communicate that he needs water, he has to move the eyebrows to get the toolbar on the message menu on the screen. The person can then scroll up or down to select the water option and a voice in the computer will say I need water. Apurv has tested his invention on 83 patients. He is now exploring other possible uses of Glabenator such as switching on fans and lights, and operating switch panels on planes or during military combats. The young inventor is looking for sponsorship to get a patent for his device, which, will cost only Rs 1,300.

Apurv, who started using a computer when was in class 5, invented a device four years later that won him recognition of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research. Finding that students who shared bottles ran the risk of infection, he invented an attachment that could be fitted to the bottle to drink water without one's lips touching the mouth of the bottle. His next concept is water computer or computation using water flow. Apurv Explains that Paul Sermon of MIT is working on fluids for computation. On that basis, now in am working on how water can be manipulated to use for computation. It is yet to be completed. I have to balance study and research. He has his goal set, to be a scientist to develop new technology aimed at a deeper interface between man and machine. He has no fascination for IITs, which he says merely make students employable. Apurv wants to go abroad for higher studies. The boy keeps in touch with international scientists via email. Steve Mann of the University of Toronto, known as the father of wearable computers and the first cyborg in the world, guides Apurv to some extent. He considers Steve and Dean Kamen, a famous inventor in the US, his role models.

Little Happy

Last day, a day I have laugh for some times, after a long time. I forget to tell about a new person who has been with me everyday for at least an hour. It was my new physiotherapist Sumithra. It was very nice to sociable with her; I like to talk with her while doing exercise, some times it will be enjoyable, her exercises will be like playing. Very understandable person, if I feel difficult to do some exercises, she use some play techniques to make it easy.

We discuss some issues and news what’s happening in the world, and she asks my thoughts on that, and she tells, what she thinks about that. She encourages me to continue my news writing. Last evening she did a new exercise, its catch and throw, I feel happy to throw and catch, I enjoyed it a lot. After my caliper was broken, I can’t even take 1 step with my bare foot, but today tried my best to walk form bedroom to hall, really feel happy like got some strength. For the last 2 days I was enjoying my old favorite songs in my new DVD player (because now only I got a remote for that), with high volume, by getting sweet scold form mom (for putting volume high).

Cute Ammu

This is Ammu (click the photo to see big)

This is ammu, my neighbor kid. I have see many kids cry when they play, but I never saw this kid cry, always have a beautiful smile on her face. I love this child when she walks, it’s like robot walk:) It has been a week I saw this kid playing, (because my caliper have been broken last week, so till I get a new one, I cant watch this kid). When I was waking everyday outside my house, this kid used to play with other kids. Is their anything-happiest movement in this world with out see the kids plying? Everyday I will be waiting for the evening to see this kid and her friends.

Took this when she was walking
