It was first of June in early 90’s, one of the worst days for many school kids. It was the day when schools would reopen after two months of adventurous summer holidays. Dressed in new uniform with shining new boots and socks and cart load of new text books and notes on our bags, we kids would drag ourselves to school half heartedly. The thought of no more sleeping late at
This little guy came to visit us the other day, landing on my friend’s skirt, and then flitting over to this curtain, where he posed nicely for me. He’s not so little, though. His wing span was almost as long as my hand.
I have sick kids. They’re not too bad, but the [...]

FOOTWEAR TIPS FOR MONSOON Come monsoon season and everybody has to rake their brains as to what to put on and step out of the house.

Somewhere a man walks through a desert
With sand in the folds in his skin
Looking for water
Somewhere there is a high mountain
With thin, dry air
Eagles cry and soar beneath men who stand and watch them
Aware of the great distance below
Aware of how easy it would be to fall
Somewhere a river is running slowly
Small and tame and [...]

Monsoon has already struck its favourite parts in India with great zeal and enthusiasm. Can’t ignore the bumpy splashy precarious rides on the motor bikes through the heavy rain dressed up like an astronaut. Can’t forget the tricky rains which pour out only while you leave for office or while coming back.

With the long periods away from home during April and most of May, I needed a quick break to recharge and spend a little quality time with my family. When there isn't too much time to plan, the default choice is always Goa. So off we went for a week during the last week of May. This time I decided to stay at The Leela, which is located in the southern part of Goa. I chose this resort for two reaso

India is popularly known as the land of monsoons. Scientifically speaking, monsoon winds are caused due to the difference in land and sea temperatures. The sweep of this wind system is set in the rhythm of summer and winter seasons. The land surface becomes comparatively warmer in summer and cooler during winter while the temperature [...]
Just before the start of the monsoon season in the Andaman Sea, I got the chance to visit one of the most talked about diving destinations in Thailand over the last couple of years, Laoliang Island. This is one of the "closed" islands in Thailand where the concessions were granted to the respective concessionaires to develop (or exploit) the resources on those islands.
Mucho se ha hablado de Tokio Hotel por estos días, debido a la suspensión de su gira 1000 Hotels European Tour por Portugal, España, Francia e Italia debido a un problema en al voz de su líder Bill Kaulitz, quien fue operado de las cuerdas vocales el 31 de marzo.Si bien el grupo arrasa en todo el mundo, en Argentina recién ahora están logrando repercusión dado que ya suena y ocupa los primeros puestos radiales en ese país, la canción Monsoon. Los dejamos con el video de esta canción y a modo de bonus track, también disfruten del video de 1000 Oceans.
I was attracted to Robby’s playing on the latest Dig Jelly CD because his playing was an integral part of a group sound. His playing skills were obvious, but he never went out of the way to overwhelm the group, but added the spices to make the album the exciting rock and roll that it is. The only thing I could have asked for on the album was to have one song where the musicians could stretch and share their abilities to jam. Didn’t hurt the album not to have that, but could possibly have enhanced it. Well, here we have Robby stretching and showing off his skills on his own album. There are other players here, but it’s definitely Robby’s show, and that’s alright because his guitar solos never get to the point where they dawdle and start boring the listener. He keeps himself reigne
Early monsoon rains descending on Indonesia's coal producing region of Kalimantan are threatening to cut output from the world's largest thermal coal exporter, Indonesian producers said on Monday. Major Indonesian producers, including PT Bumi Resources and PT Adaro, told Reuters the West Monsoon, which typically begins in December and last to March, started around the beginning of November and could jeopardise production if rainfall gets heavier."The rain season has come a couple of weeks earlier than usual and we're barely making out monthly production target," said a source at Bumi Resources, which produces about a third of Indonesia's total thermal coal output through its subsidiaries PT Kaltim Prima and PT Arutmin."We're getting by on a hand-to-mouth basis. I'd say the situation is quite critical," the source said.Indonesia News Blog: http://indosnesos.blogspot.com

I am not normally a dress person. If I had it my way I would live in denim minis and skinny jeans every day, but for my 21st I wanted something special. I went all round the shops on many trips with no luck until one rainy saturday I spotted the perfect dress in the window of Monsoon.
Monsoon knows what it is doing when it comes to formal wear. The dress I purchased was the Jessica Beaded dress. As soon as I slipped it on in the fitting room I felt like princess. I loved the feel of the 100% silk fabric and couldnt help but twirl round due to the layers of netted underskirt. In the lovely fitting rooms the sales assistants were very happy to fetch me a pair of Monsoon’s gorgeous heals to give it the full effect.
Initially my eyes were drawn to it because it was a classic black formal dress with a twist which i suppose is just like me. I loved the modern feel given to it by the pink and black belt. I also loved the beaded detail at the very top of the dress adds a bi

Monsoons, for some, are all about cloudy skies with little sunlight, fast spreading water-borne diseases, and almost a depressive state of mind. And how can you forget about the increased mosquito menace? But there are ways to beat the blues and enjoy the beauty and wonderment of this season with a sunny smile. Refer to some of the tips and suggestions by clicking here. Here are some more tips:

Take care of your skin in Monsoon‘Rain’ – to hear this word for the first time, the foremost thing which comes to our mind is cooling effects and relief from scorching heat. But it has also some negative effects on our skin, just like the way we suffer in other seasons. The foremost harmful effect is the fungal infection, which basically occurs in toes and armpits due to wet clothes and footwear. So everybody should take care of their feet. Use anti fungal soap while bathing and apply anti fungal powder after bath. It is easily available in any medical store. To get soft and smooth feet, rub petroleum jelly and wear socks (if possible, since it will help to soak up the jelly) before going to bed. To get rid of bad odor of feet, mix rose oil, lavender oil with milk and apply it onto your feet.Because of humidity, our skin gets easily attracted to pollution and dirt. So, proper cleansing, toning and moisturizing are required at a regular basis for healthy and glowing skin. Some hom
Heavy rains compel you to stay indoors most of the time but don’t let that bother you. You can utilize that time in tackling unfinished chores at home front, which you had always been putting off citing lack of time. Another flip side to the monsoons – it brings along a surfeit of problems and ailments like viral fevers, sore throats, colds, diarrhea, and fungal infections in the toes etc. So you
Trata-se de 4 jovens alemães... Editaram recentemente o seu single de maior sucesso em inglês... Eu já gostava da versão em alemão mas sem dúvida que assim se percebe muito melhor o que eles dizem... Uma musica inspirada... lol LetraI'm staring at a broken door, There's nothing left here anymore. My room is cold, It's making me insane. I've been waiting here so long, Another moment seems to 've come, I see the dark clouds coming up again. CHORUS Running through the monsoon, Beyond the world, To the end of time, Where the rain won't hurt Fighting the storm, Into the blue, And when I lose myself I think of you, Together we'll be running somewhere new Through the monsoon. Just me and you. A half moon's fading from my sight, I see your vision in its light. But now it's gone and left me so alone I know I have to find you now, Can hear your name, I don't know how. Why can't we make this darkness feel like home? CHORUS Running through the m

Israel won't enjoy longlasting peace if its government keeps humiliating Palestinians. Just like Bush's Amerika, Sharon-and-now-Olmert's Eretz Israel openly mocks at intra-and-international laws, exacerbates hatred, fuels radicalism, extremism and terrorism, loses all respect and credit from moderates.Just like Sharon got rid of Arafat, Olmert can wack Hammas but it doesn't matter since the annilihation of each of every one constructive hope today means the creation of thousands of new ennemies tomorrow.
And all this for what ? Just artificially keeping a minority of ultra-conservatives and fundamentalists alive ; species bound to extinction in a peaceful world.
Where on Earth are Israel's moderates ? Why are they keeping silent ? At least, we know why the US are not doing anything to stop this sick joke...
Another night has passed but it barely seems to be a new day.With the downpour unabated we have seen no sunlight since three days. The Rain God has been too generous.It pours. Just pours. Spurt after fresh spurt barraging the already rain-swept streets. Sporadically, the wind joins forces with the torrents.The metropolis doesn't care for sun or rain. Life ticks here, perhaps, faster than the clock. When the showers ebb a little, a motley group of boys plays football in the slush. The hawker selling roasted corn cobs makes brisk business. Happy, shiny young couples sit by the promenade taking in the spray of the sea and the drizzle. When the torrents return everyone scampers back to their cubbyholes.The rain usually makes me feel happy and renewed. But a glum feeling overwhelms me today. It doesn't help to have had a rough day in such gloomy weather. Sad, stung and scathed, my spirits are as dampened as the world outside. There is a chill in the air. From my window, the world is a s
