    • I am not sure they are allowing outsiders at the moment. I am verifying the details. Would love to visit them for breakfast or lunch.

  1. Kea bloggers–gs_18 herbal comments brought me in..nothing much to cheer..its hot outside..no rains in sight although SS’s planet combos are encouraging and I also sincerely believe that we are going to have bumper rains in the last 10 days of 2012 and possibly the first 5-10 days of 2013..

  4. @maheshchennai – can you create a blog regarding your health experiences ? Would like to know how you solved your health problems. Thanks.

    • hi gs , i really dont have any health problems now. extremely fit. I got acidity of stomach because of my profession. I used to sail for Mitsui Shipping of Japan. Our route was usually from far east ( japan , taiwan , hong kong and sail for US ports) . Now there is something called biological clock. if we are in Japan we almost have indian time of habits ,bfast till dinner, but after 15 days we reach US and there the timings change. Dinner becomes bfast. Body cant adjust to this in a short timing. again after one wek in US we sail back to Japan. So clock is reversed. so this affects the digestion and sleep. I got cured by pirandai and manathakkali keerai. i hope your doubts are clear.

  5. Update on Dec11 mjo: The dynamical forecasts of the MJO are starting to indicate a strengthening of the MJO pulse by the end of the month over the Indian Ocean, but the short-term forecast is for the MJO to remain weak with little to no contribution towards tropical weather…

  6. 4179 Toutatis passing closer to Earth today, happens every four years, and geminid meteor shower on dec 13,14, almost every year. These are usual happenings… No need to relate these wid the doomsday :p just enjoy the 12-12-12

  10. Many models suggest a good system after Christmas this time around,as usual.It is not unexpected.Beginning 18 or 19th onwards,we should start getting substantial rain in order to make up for a part of the deficit.
    Chennai’s make or break is December.

  11. India’s sitar maestro Ravi Shankar has passed away.
    He was active in music till his last breath,being nominated for The Grammys this year along with daughter Anoushka.
    This is sad news,indeed.

  12. Vinodh, Sivaji 3D was awesome… It was too gud to watch in 3D….. same kinda fun.. excitement, etc… also saw naduvula konjam pakkatha kanum.. was laughing throughout the movie.. such a gud entertaining movie… 😉

  13. Another long dry spell similar to november after the wet start in the month…
    Hope this time it will be shorter than that was in november

    • Sharma to Cook, OUT

      Shamra has got one. That never looked out. Poor umpiring. Length ball, angling away from off, hitting him outside the line too. Atrocious call

      Pressure on the umpires too.
