Journey to the center of my native..


Today, my family decided to go to our native since it's been quite a long since we visited the place last time. Being the head of the family, my dad made all the necessary arrangements for the 1 and a half hour journey. We decided to go by my sister's car which was quite small to give room comfortably for even 4 adults. In total, there were 6 adults including the driver who was here since none of us know car driving. Now, the all the eyes turned at me and I understood where I am going to have my place in the car. At the front, one more person can sit beside the driver comfortably. I was made to sit between the driver and my mom, which means I was literally sitting on the gear board. For the first few minutes of travel, I didn't find anything uncomfortable except for the way people outside peeped into the car to find where I was sitting. But, as the journey continued and sun started to scorch the roads, I felt a slight pain on my back. I realized that it was just the start since not even half of the total upward distance was not covered y then. I decided to sleep even though I was put in a completely uncomfortable position inside the car so that towards the end of the journey when the back pain becomes unbearable, I wouldn't feel a thing about it. Unfortunately, the hot atmosphere, both within and outside the car, didn't allow me to have the nap I wished to have. So, I had to undergo a physical strain on my back when we reached the end of the road. I had a big sigh of relief when I popped out of the car and had a good walk under the hot sun for about 10 minutes before entering my uncle's place. I was so happy since the pain had so after effects and I was able to move properly. When we were about to start our journey back to Chennai, again, I was the most unfortunate in the car next to the four wheels that had to roll down the white hot roads. I had no choice. I again tried to get some sleep on the gear board setup. But, I was not in a good position to do what I liked. The journey came to an end few minutes back and I can still feel the pain in on my right knee which was completely covered by the driver's left leg. To add to the tragedy, the driver had his left leg rested on my right knee for the whole journey back home. Now, I am going to try some thermal treatments on my knee and I'll get back to the business (Blogging) very soon!

Animal World




As an animal lover, I always tell people that this world belongs to animals since they have been living here for millions of earth. They have been inhabiting earth even before human beings started developing societies. The best part of such a wonderful, beautiful and awesome animal world is dog. Dogs are the most loyal creatures on earth. I grow a Dalmatian which is so loyal that it comes back to me even after I treat it harshly. I stumbled upon the site dedicated to dogs and especially to yorkie breed of dogs. teacupyorkiedogs.com is site that contains a whole lot of information about various kinds of cross bred dogs. I loved the way the resulting puppies are named. For the naming purpose, the author of the site has used the names of both the parent dogs so that the naming convention becomes too easy that one can get to know the breeds of the parent dogs just by knowing the pup's breed name. For instance, when a yorkie is bred with a maltese, the resulting pup's breed would be called Morkie which sounds so quirky and unique! There are so many yorkie cross breed temperaments that have been listed on the site that tells you everything about yorkie pups. After browsing the pages of the site, I was interested in discovering some new breed names. I wondered what would happen if a Dalmatian is made to breed with a yorkie. The resulting pup would have long strands of hair around its face and the whole body would be quite soft and fluffy like a fur ball. But, the pup would possibly be having the shades of a Dalmatian with black spots all over the body! I tried imagining how such a pup would look like in real life. It would look so cute and small which would be completely adorable for even the cruel animal killers. I have even found a name for such a pup, using the same naming rules as the moderator of the site did. The pup should be called Darkie which sounds as cute as the pup would appear if it really finds its way to earth!

Arrogant atheists..

Atheism has become more a kind of trend for people than what it should really mean to those who call themselves atheists. Opinions differ. Atheists don't accept this. Opinions should be individualistic and one should not try to inflict it on others. Atheists do this. They not only stop with calling God an imaginary creation of man but they also call those who worship God fools and everything senseless.

I am affected..Thanks to the Indian politicians..



There are so many happenings in the country to prove that most of the politicians in India are totally inefficient, incapable and irresponsible illiterates. The American economy seems to be crumbling to pieces but the politicians over there are smart enough to pump $700 billion into the business to save the nation. But, our FM who lauds himself to be a genius when it comes to finance couldn't help the nation by providing proper aides to free it from the tightening clutches of inflation and price rise. All he does every time the media comes with the figure of inflation which keeps rising everyday, is to appear in front of the press and address the nation with a single statement:

"Indian banks and financial bodies are immune to the rising crisis"

May be he is insulated from these problems but not the common man. There were days when petrol was sold at Rs.35 per liter. But, I was so unfortunate that I was riding a bicycle at those times and now, when I love bike riding, my parents are not ready to waste money on petrol since the price has gone up to almost 56. And my bicycle is also rusted now. How can I use it again? Now, all my means of transportation are blocked! This is what our Indian FM has done to me.

Few months back, I made it a habit to play cricket everyday in the morning, no matter what the weather guy told about the weather. Water packets are essentials for us. As a result of inflation, even the cost of a water packet has gone up by 50 paise. It may sound so silly since the cost is too low to compare with what the American Government has planned to invest in the market to bailout the sinking ships. But, when you consider the amplified image, you would find even a single penny making a big difference. Today, once again, our FM has released a statement according to which our markets are stable, strong and sound. Dear FM, if that is the case, can you tell me why inflation is going up faster than NASA's spacecraft and why the food and oil prices have increased by several folds???

Red loses its face..:-P

The situation of the Central Government and the state of the state Governments in India are really pathetic and awful. When other countries are talking about space science, aliens, UFOs and time tunnels, we are talking about 2nd Green Revolution, reservations in educational institutions and other issue that would add nothing to the nation's image in the Internationals arena. The only good development in terms of technical development of the nation came in the form of N-Deal. But, whenever something good happens, a villain jumps into the scene from nowhere. The RED party had no clue about this and they knew the deal would take India to great heights which they don't want to see happening because Politics is their only profession and they can't survive if India develops and people become shrewd enough to understand the technicalities of various advancements in the nation that would be following the deal. Hence, they opposed the N-Deal and made all the possible attempts to tumble the Government which successfully survived the trust vote. Communists in India are made to bite dust and lick the grounds. This is a hard lesson for the communists who are not really following the principles of Karl Marx but have designed their own guidelines flexible to their needs and expectations so that they can make maximum use of the name communism and gain a lot. If there is a big hindrance for the development of the nation, that would be these unwanted elements belonging to the RED party which should immediately be dissolved in order to move closer to the goal of making the country a developed nation by 2020. If this doesn't happen, communists in India would make this country a living hell by talking rubbish and inflicting their shapeless philosophies which are nowhere closer to real communism on the people of this nation. According to real communism, all are equal irrespective of their status. But, our defamed communists feel that all our equal and they slightly take the edge over others by forcing others to follow what they follow and calling those who refuse to do so anomalies of the society. And they call this communism. Communists in India are weeds which should never be encouraged if you want the fields to thrive.

Reach out to the space!!!



NASA has come up with an excellent idea that would look really lucrative and creative. This is what they are planning to do. They have built a website which can be accessed by anyone across the globe. On entering the site, you would find an e-form which should be filled up using your details and whereabouts. This form won't contain anything too personal from you and hence you can feel free to fill it up with genuine information about you. After submitting the online registration form which takes nothing out of your pockets, you will receive a certificate from NASA available in a printable format. If you wish to store it as a soft copy, you have the option to download the participation certificate from NASA in PDF format so that you can have a print of the certificate from the most prestigious space research organization. I am done with the registration and I received a mail from NASA stating that my name would be transferred to a microchip that will be made use of inside the vessel that would float around the earth to measure the amount of aerosol particles suspended in the earth's upper layer of the atmosphere. The mission also serves various other studies the results of which will be updtaed as and when any new data is obtained on NASA's official website. I've already made sure my name reaches the space. Take your turn. Just 58,000 people have registered so far. Any number of names can be installed in the chip, says NASA. To make your name fly in the space for several years to come, follow this link:

Politician or joker???

It has always been an old fashion adage that black is better for those who have a little bit of extra weight because it slim people down. This is an old wives' tale. While black can be rather slimming for those who are already slim, buying plus size jeans in black is not going to make you look thinner. While a certain color can be flattering to your face, it is more important to pay attention to tailoring, cut, and style rather than a certain color. It may sound hard to believe, but black is not always the best choice it is simply a choice like blue, white, or any other color in plus size jeans.

The famous opinion when it comes to fashion is that black has always looked good for all those with few extra pounds since it makes them look slim. This is an old wives’ tale. Though black makes one look slim, buying black plus sized jeans won’t make one look slimmer. Rather than attaching importance to the color, it is always advisable that the priority be given to the tailoring, cut and style. Though it may sound alarming, the fact is that black is not the best of choices and it is just another color like blue, white or red in plus sized jeans. Size is all that matters and not color.

It’s a good template that you’ve chosen for the site. The header looks cool. But, to start with, you need to reduce the font size of your header. Also, try to change the font color of the same. Changing it to green instead of dark blue or red would be my suggestion. Secondly, the bullets that you have used are yellow/orange in color, which looks quite odd against the general template theme that is light green in color. The content is highly informative and flawless. Everything else about your page is perfect. I would give it 8 on 10.

If you have been stuck in your position in the competitive management field, you might research online management classes. In the type of business you are in, there are numerous employees who possess the same job skills you have as well. The extra skills you attain in these courses can give you the step ahead of your competition.

What is your duty?


Few days back, I was involved in a serious discussion with one of my intimate friends. It was about India and the level safety we Indian citizens enjoy. Ironically, we don't find safety to enjoy. It's literally missing in the country. According to one of the media reports, 89% of the people in the nation's capital have quit going out for shopping after the blasts which ambushed the city. Sadly, both the Chief minister of the state and Central Government are left helpless but not clueless. The clue has actually the answer in itself. People covering themselves using the blanket of cowardice belonging to Indian Mujahideen claimed responsibility for the blasts and they even had the nerves to send an e-mail 5 minutes prior to the bomb blasts that said "This time we are taking on the Hindutva Hub of your nation. Yes. It's the green City we are talking about. Delhi is the target". Thus, after the bombs went off, everyone was sure of who planned the attacks but not our Indian Intelligence and Home ministry.

7 minutes after the blast, highly efficient team of police arrived at the places where 100s of unfortunate corpses were lying limbless scattered on the ground. The police was here just to do what Neel Metal Fanalca in Chennai does to clear the road off trash and other wastes. They helped the medical team to get the corpses and few live human beings with fatal injuries into the ambulances. When I told this to my friend, she asked me "What else do you think the cops should do? Instead of dragging them over the coal, why don't you think of appreciating the bomb squads for defusing the remaining bombs which constituted more than 50% of the total number of bombs that were actually planted by the militants?" I was not surprised because most of us think the bomb squads deserve appreciation. Yes. I do accept that they should be praised for putting their lives at stake just to save the common man. But, there is another side to look into. Why should someone be praised just because they do their duties? They are supposed to work that way and they should continue doing that even if their bravery is not recognized properly. Call it destiny, fate or whatever bad you can think of.

Coming to the Indian Intelligence part makes me even madder. I was not aware of the disaster before it happened. And even the Intelligence Bureau had no clue about the terror plot. If this is the case, then why can't I be called an Intelligence Bureau official? Why doesn't the Government pay me what the I.B people get? It's the total intelligence failure that led to these unprecedented miseries. The intelligence level of Indian officials is at rock-bottom which can be justified by the statement released by the Home ministry, which was:

"We are investigating seriously to find out who are behind these attacks and focus is on some of the militant organizations that have been banned in India but still carry out terror plots across the nation".

Why should they work hard to find out which organization was the one behind the blasts when the very organization involved in the blast surfaced with a strong statement "We are behind the blasts that would rock the capital in another 5 minutes. Indian Intelligence can try doing whatever they can"? It's already very clear who the masterminds behind the unfortunate blasts are. Then why did Home ministry release such a senseless statement?

Intelligence agencies are so inefficient and ineffective that they will be alert only after a blast occurs. Immediately after any blast, they would inform the home ministry of 'POSSIBLE' threats even if they don't have any strong proof for the threats they are talking about. Intelligence in our country is no different from a news reporter. Both keep talking all the time. Intelligence bureau has lost the trust of people who are now afraid to even peep out of their windows!

Terror unleashed..

Having your own deep fat fryer at home will allow you to control the ingredients you use to make items like your own, homemade potato chips, luscious doughnuts, or chicken nuggets. This is especially great if anyone in your family needs a special diet due to food allergies. It is dangerous for these people to eat restaurant foods in which the ingredients are unknown. However, at home you can choose your own recipes and ingredients which you know won't present a health risk to someone with allergies.


It is very important when buying kitchen appliances to buy only what you will use. It is a waste of money to buy the latest gizmo or a device that will only be used once or twice a year and take up valuable counter or shelf space.


Some may often get ambiguous over the appliances that they should have in their kitchens. Some might fear buying appliances which they might never use after removing them from the box. There is no doubt that cooker is a mandatory appliance in every kitchen. It alerts one after the rice inside has been cooked. Hence the housemates can be sure of being served with hot, fluffy, perfectly prepared rice when they’re ready to eat. Kitchen appliances like cooker should be bought only if one really has a need of these appliances. It’s quite odd to get an appliance which will hardly be used only twice or thrice a year.
