Documenting Observations

We may soon see a parallel of what the Jews did and experience with the encouragement received from Haggai. We surely live to witness most of the events described in the Bible happening. 

Is using tiffins wrong? Somebody, please help. Your help will be much appreciated. 

Scientist suspect and attribute the Antikythera Mechanism and many other ancient technologies and architecture as the handy work of aliens. They mention many of the earthly feats as not belonging to its inhabitant whom they consider as primitive. The mention that they suspect it to be work of aliens keep the layman, especially the atheist, deluded in a world that is unknown. To my mind, the aliens, if they exist, would have never made it to the earth with a computer running on gear mechanism unless they were using it as a backup devise just in case, their digital equipment broke. However, they made the Antikythera Mechanism with bronze. It’s a metal and equipment that has survived 2000 years in a degraded state, but was it really the best metal to build a computer? Or would the aliens who are considered smart enough to travel between galaxies have not known of a better metal? 

After witnessing some instant healing of family members at a Sujok therapy center. I was intrigued to try one of their methods of asthma cure. It was something very simple and involved almost zero cost for me. All that I had to do was to just buy was some paper tape from the pharmacy. We have black pepper growing at home and that was the stuff I could avoid buying. All I had to do was to cut a square piece off the paper tape and put some black pepper on it. The best way to do this is to probably fill the black pepper in a bottle with a small mouth. The mouth should fill in a small circle on the square cut paper tape, leaving enough border to stick to the skin. The paper tape with the pepper has to be placed on the depression on the neck (probably called the jugular notch) at night for eight hours, for three months. Care should be taken to remove the tape after eight hours as the effect of the pepper last only for that many hours. I cannot say for sure if there any negative effect

A man ignorant of an afterlife, does well in life and has all comforts and people he needs around him. However, at some stage he starts realizing that there's something missing in his life and he is not perfect. After, being guided by many he finally learns about Jesus. The Bible instructs him in Jesus' words to sell everything and thus create a treasure a in heaven and then to follow Him to fulfill what is missing in his life. The reference to this is in the Biblical verse of: Matthew 19:21 Jesus told him, "If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me." For the man in our story it might be easy to decide to sell everything and live everyone, including his wife and children, behind and follow Jesus. However, what if a man who has been taught the bible and knows the above verse from early days in his life? Should a man knowledgeable from his youth, never

If somebody tells you that car key battery replacement would cost you ₹450, and it sounds ridiculous to you, do not let somebody argue against that feeling. A cell for you car key would hardly cost ₹25 - ₹40. All you need to do is buy and replace the old one. However, most people would tend to think that these little devices that interact with your car and keep it safe, are gadgets that you should not meddle with it. Well, give it another thought. If you have a key and it’s duplicate and you need to change both you would end up paying about ₹850 for something that you can manage to do yourself. All these little devices, that do not have screws in them are things you can split open and push them back in place like no harm was ever brought to them. You do not have to be scared of thinking that you would break them. You may break them only if you do not check for orientation on certain bigger devices that may not fit in your palm, but for the smaller ones you can just pull t

There are territories beyond the universe. It's a space that did not have a beginning or end. It does not have 'Time' as we know it in our universe. It is in this space that the Universe was created and not necessarily occupies a portion of it. Wow! that precise science. Where else could have the big ban have taken place if there was nothing called eternity?

Humans were ordained to replenish the earth and subdue it having a dominion on every creature living on it. They were thus provided with all resources on it to dig or go deep down inside to find and use. The ability of all creatures to adapt and live in weird environments that they may not have been their original habitats according to our understanding demonstrate their built-in power to survive millennials.   Replenish according to the dictionary is a term that means to ‘fill something that had previously been emptied. And that means there was something like us here on earth before us that had filled up the earth. These creatures were certainly not as blessed as we are. They probably lived under deep waters that was not lit by light from above. There was no firmament and probably there wasn’t air as we know it today. The Sun and the moon had not yet been created and so, there were no signs, seasons, days or years. After this all the beasts of the seas and of the wild

Windows 10 Store Apps installed on your desktop may behave like apps do on mobiles. They do not load when you have minimized the window. However, if its a non-App installation you might enjoy them running the way you have experienced on previous versions of Windows.

If you have the executable update, just run it from your windows and it's updated when it has finished running! 

Just two days back I had this unnerving experience of feeling that my 10 month old PC was about to say a goodbye. With depleting resource, I did not have the hope that I would have enough finances to get it repaired. When I check online for warranty support the system seemed to have recorded my warranty as expired. I take my machine back to the purchase center where I had also got some additional RAM installed. I had a feeling that the RAM was broke. The system would shut down abruptly and once had a screen stuck with a noise that wrenched the heart. The RAM was still under warranty. After doing a few test on the memory the Dell showroom guys ruled out memory (RAM) issues and updated the BIOS. My system has been running smoothly ever since and hope it does like most Dell users. 

How do you make your children feel how a snap with claws feels? How do you make them realize the pain when punched on your belly or when the jump on your back when you are sleeping? As parents, you just cannot do what they do to you. However, here's what you can. Be a good parent and let them mingle freely with their siblings and friends and class mates. Every fight they make in their younger years make them realize the pain, but only one of its kind may not be enough, the need to fight again and again. During some fights, they ignore all the pain and continue to strive for declaring dominion. By the time they realize the pain from the clashes they had, the might have forgotten about the fight altogether. It’s a slow learning process and as they get more and more involved in fights and see others suffer in fights they learn the pain and start thinking on how to avoid situations. As parents, you just need to tell them sternly that it’s not good to fight and warn t

Simplicity in our lives meant: Having similar plates for the young and the old, but then came the age of colors and the children had a different set, then came the marketing gimmick of pink for girls and blue for boys, soon children felt they could fight for different colors for their changing mood, and the table became noisy, and the uncles and aunts wanted to gift the perfect gift and brought in more colored items on shopping shelves, now the children had too many choices and they learnt to discard, and its not just the plates and bowls but also the food in them. now the kitchen is a junkyard and tables a graveyard with the dinners buried deep in their gadgets The way to peace is simple, just bring back the simplicity of one type of plates for all, do not have more than that in your house, uncles and aunts just visit, please do not bring gifts other than toys if you will, else the fight for colors is thus, the choices are now shifting to rainbow, that very color is t

My Dell Computer purchased on November 2016, is about to say goodbye to my needs even before spending an year with me. The computer has several times shut down with messages that it did not start successfully. It has been constantly under attack by ants. However, the materials used even in the keyboard seems to have put up a better fight that the keypad on my HP laptop. These systems might resistant to circuit damage because of the presence insects. However, its not clear who long they would be able to resist the nastic ties of little creatures. To make sure recent Windows updates have not caused the trouble, I tried restoring the system to an available restore point. However, the system could not restore not even in the supposed safe mode of Windows 10. Later, I uninstall some of the games, I had installed from the Windows store. That seems to have solved the problem for now. I have had no trouble for about half hour now. It's not yet time to tell if Dell Hardware or Window

'I Love Singapore' products will not make you love Singapore

Mobile phones must not be used at a gas stations but what are the options for a woman reeling under danger at a place as dangerous as that. My cousin has driven to one for filling up her two-wheeler petrol tank. She demands for a refill for Rs. 252. Now, there is a concern of consumer in India that the fuel dispensing machine are manipulated to deliver a little less in quantity for standard round figures such as for Rs 250. That explains why she opted for Rs 252. Most gas stations in our country are available for self-service only if the consumer is impatient for the absence of a service guy or if he is daring enough to handle machines that he is not supposed to (the rules being never rigid, nor the need to ever worry about the consequences of breaking a rule if at all). Now the guy that filled up my cousin's tank, meets a friend (for this is a country where any and everybody is a friend and more so when there is an opportunity to chat) and gets busy talking. Cu

Search in Microsoft Explorer now seems much better that the search results from google. Nevertheless, I appreciate googles blank window of google to the default pages with random worrisome pictures that msn presents. I browse can without worry of what may be overseen from behind. I would never want people to think that I am interested on everything that is thrown on my screen. They may mistake my choices and make my world more complicated. I still love google, that lets me chose my world view rather than the MSN duty of presenting my choices on my behalf.

The recent video on WhatsApp of the peculiar behavior of a conch shell, that finds it way to the surface when buried under a sack of rice grains may make some believe that the conch in itself has magical powers. The idea may not be farfetched as it's used as device to please gods in some of the eastern cultures in religious rituals. Some minds may immediately think that the shape of the conch itself may make the rice grains flow underneath the shell and since the flow must happen from the vicinity of the shell itself this would happen along it's surface and ultimately from it's top thus pushing the shell upward. In the west people would use computer graphics and probably fix camera to the conch shell to see the ground reality. Now if all those scientific experiments leave people clueless, the chemical engineers might pitch in to investigate if the shell reacts with the rice to form any gas that fill up the shell from the bottom and makes it rise above the rice in w

With the prices of pulses and cereals sky-rocketing, it might be tough on farmers to feed their Ducks and Hens. There are some varieties that feed on grass, but they do not eat that all time and look forward to the farm owner to feed them. But did you know that: 1. Papayas can chopped and boiled and your egg laying birds will love them? 2. Peels like those of Banana will be discarded, even if they are of the small varieties, the peal of which look tiny. If however if you cut them into small pieces they fight for the quantities they may grab. 3. Check out what other fruits discarded by them may be presented to them in a different manner. There always seems to be an alternate way out when you face poverty.

My dad was looking forward to upgrade to a touchscreen phone when he found all around him in his age group, below and beyond, all looking smart tapping on theirs. His curiosity was not just about the taps and camera clicks on the device that he knew was meant only for calls, but also about all the talks about Facebook and Viber and the connectivity and information that they seemed to be exposing to a generation he was exposed to. I am not talking about the distant past when these apps and technology were at its infancy, but about the year 2014 when these tech lingos were common place. However, we still do have jungle dwellers and it should be no surprise if people advanced in their years are yet to get an exposure to all that is out there.   Coming back to his fantasy to learn about the new stuff, my father’s timing was perfect when I was looking forward to upgrading my phone as well. However, after been left with the experiences of ill-fated purchases of: a Blackberry wi

The world comes crushing down at crucial junctures in our lives. And sometimes you just feel that when you discover on a shoestring budget to a distant city that your mobile battery is dying out rapidly. You may be surrounded with shops selling mobiles but you do not have cash to spend (and that sometimes seems to be good for we do carried away with the power of wealth at times). But if this is a sudden discovery you may have hope to take control of the situation. You are aware of notorious spurious products if you live in the Asian sub-continent and your culprit could be one such spurious memory card in your phone. You could have changed brand on being cheated by a Toshiba memory card (After having ended up with a rather expensive TV broken down and a laptop that I had to exchange thrice and then thankfully replaced with another brand by the seller and a memory card that lasted not 3 months, I can only say that I am cheated by that brand, the name of which was alone sensational at o

My previous blog on ‘ Babu - The Auto Driver in Chennai ’ brought to you proof of how God turns apparently bad situations into one that turns out to be a blessing. Did God bless me on my second trip? I will be honest and not hasten to give a testimony that sounds affirmative. I enquired on the way with co-travelers on the bus and landed at where I had to. A college guy on the bus who had overheard my conversations checked with me if I would like to join him one the journey further for we were headed towards the same direction. His idea was to split the taxi/autorickshaw expenses. There was nothing suspicious with the situations or the expressions of the guy and I could probably manage him if he created a situation and so I affirmed that we would go together.   He pulled out his mobile and checked for the cheapest plan. That was when I learnt ‘OLA’ had so many features and not just the defaults that I had tried on my last trip as a first-time user with my fast discharging mobi

A night before Amaziah could not sleep easy as he had done all these years. It was holiday and it was partly a rainy day too. He was being cranky about not being allowed to play on the computer and he demanded for new games as well. I obliged, and downloaded a few new games for him to explore. It was unusual of me to do the same, but he must also get a chance to explore what’s available on the internet. I prefer to keep my children offline most of the time but thought to relax the rules for a day. The result he spent about four hours playing in the digital world. And when it was time for bed he cried “I am seeing computer and the games if I close my eye” he screamed. For a moment it seemed like a big problem. There are sermons that are told about how the devil finds his way to little minds in ways that even adults may not understand if ignorant of that being. However, being a little kid, we could distract him and help him sleep. Friends do take time to consider children who do not g

Joy and the Boy was engrossing and today's children have the option of demanding to see movies over and over again. But back in the 80's when my father took me for 'My Dear Kuttichathan' the first 3D movie of Indian Cinema. It was once in a life time experience for kids of middle-class family of those days. The impression left on the mind was so captivating that, it was only recently that I searched, if the movie was available on 'Youtube'. And to the utter dismay the print looked so bad that it was sure to create no impression on the mind of the young ones today. But is that really the case, to prove that you would need to put your assumptions to test. Kids today spend much of their time seeing repeat telecast of their cartoon shows along with advertisements that they really are not much bothered about. As they realize that not all Yummy advertisements sell things that are really Yummy, they start complaining about, senseless ads that break their TV shows th

We know atoms and molecules make up matter. However, do we really understand what elements in matter cause substances to smell? If any particular arrangement of matter cause things to smell, what is given off from it to stimulate our olfactory senses. And if something is really given off from the matter, does that result in weight loss of the substance or does it alter the substance chemically. There seems to be not much available on google relating to these questions. Can somebody answer?

15  Behold now behemoth , which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. 16  Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly. 17  He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. 18  His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron. 19  He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him. 20  Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play. 21  He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens. 22  The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about. 23  Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth. 24  He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares. 41  Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down? 2  Canst thou put an hook into his nose

On a tight string budget, I had an urgent trip to make to Chennai, the capital city of Tamil Nadu, one of the most crowded place that I have so often travelled. I was on a 5-day business trip as was I told by the person who had invited me to the city for a business. As I boarded the bus, I booked the return ticket, with the help of dispatch guy who had come to examine our tickets. Five days later it would be the weekend for harvest festival ‘Onam’ in Kerala. All Keralites working in Tamil Nadu would be returning home for celebration with family and friends. I was happy to be handed over a return ticket at preferred location on the bus for such an eventful weekend. Large cities these days keep changing its look and feel in a matter of couple of years and I was revisiting the city after about four years. Chennai being a metro city will have many corners that you may not have travelled even if you have stayed there for a year or two. Chennai looked more crowded even on the city ou

Atheism, a non-belief or doubt in the general trendy believes of people of the social circle an atheist belong, is probably a response to the extremism of traditional practices that look absurd. The person grabbing on to an atheistic belief might be, choked and suffocating, and condemning practices that he considers imprudent and vile. When hurt personally, his or her reaction, is often a ‘stay away from me’ threat. As the person builds his personal fire wall to protect oneself, he or she might next observe other who are going through an analogous situation. It would be natural for him or her to share their experience with the person being tormented to help them fight back. What drives this bonding between the firewall enabled individual and suppressed has enormous effect on the course of the culture and society that these individuals live in. If the bonding is aimed at making the society aware of its atrocities in a loving manner, it would bring about a transformation that would

360-degree vision would have been the dream of every warrior that fought enemies in ancient era. Men or women with four heads helped serve that purpose. However, if the creators had pondered over the degree of vision we have at our disposal (210 degrees horizontal and 150 degrees vertical), they might have settled for three heads if not two. They rather were more used to hearing of the four directions and that could have led them in creating the four head we see on some of the deities that we discover in ancient art and sculptures. While the Biblical fallen angels might have had the capacity to change forms and appear before men in weird forms, giving them inclination to think of beings beyond what their eyes normally met. Those not having such encounters or tales of such must have had two sources of inspiration that led them to creating multi-limb figures and figurines: The first could have been, group dance performers, who with perplexing alignment of their bodies give impressio

Ants rubbed on a piece of cloth (table cloths for example) or on a piece of paper, do not leave behind stains while a mosquitos body will leave behind stains from all it's body parts like the perfect fossil of leaf.  

Modern day water filters throw away a lot of water. If you channelize and redirect it to your garden you are probably feeding it with more minerals. If you collect it in a bucket you invite thirsty birds and help them survive. If you let the water to fall on ground and evaporate you help some place to get mist and rain. If you drain it underground you give it back to the earth. None of our activities every waste water, it’s just like holding sand in a tight fist. Yet like any other resources managing your use of water is essential for a smooth life. Everything is provided yet man must labor. Read the ‘Greatest Disaster – It’s Not’. Its chapter ‘The Resource War’ will help you stop struggling with life.
