The Earth day  (or) a Billion Acts of Green is the biggest environmental  green campaign started on 1970 celebrated in  more than 175 countries worldwide.This year it mark on April 22 ,2011 paving way to enormousness outpouring of support both Online and Offline.The Billion Acts of Green campaign continues this year and more at the same date April 22, 2012 encouraging people to live along with Nature.

What do you do on this day ?You can start your own Earth Day Event or join the group who creates one.The Events can be your own (or) 
Plant Trees in group,
Reduce your Power intake at home, 
Reduce your Carbon prints, 
Walk - dont drive on your Car ,
Use Public Transport 
Use Lead/CLF bulbs at home
Encourage use of SOLAR Power
Learn about the FREE ENERGY RESOURCES
Recycle Recycle Recycle
Start your own club with friends and volunteers, and do what you want to save the environment.

My offer for this Earth Day 2012 is the below post: AWARENESS of Free resources of Energy through this blog to those interested .I have blogged about few interesting things for a better Earth that I have come across in the Web recently

Mobilize the Earth™rally

Earth Day Network announced plans for the Mobilize the Earth™rally on the National Mall in Washington, D.C  on April 22nd, 2012 on Sunday.Special appearances by Cheap Trick, Dave Mason, Kicking Daisies and The Explorers Club. The entire rally will be streamed live on the web at www.earthday.org.

What's special about this rally? The rally will include an “EcoVillage” with dozens of interactive exhibits, including renewable energy demonstrations, educational workshops and voter registration sponsorsed by Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations, LLC, and Best Western International.Exhibitors include NASA, the United Nations Environment Programme, Vietnam Veterans of America, the Yasuni Initiative / Embassy of Ecuador, Kids vs. Global Warming, Tremont Electric, Solar City, and Interfaith Moral Action on Climate Change.After the billion of voices heard and reached, Earthday.org takes them to UN Earth Summit in Rio this year  and help to Mobilize the Earth

Want to participate ? Read more Earth Day Campaign 

Go Organic  - (some fun on the way )

I chose Disney Store for this topic because like everyone I love Disney's products and store.It is my fantasy store .Now, to our story. Disney Store has their own pledge of Earth day named " Project Green -Friends for Change " to make a positive impact on people by providong then information, tools, encouragement  in their website.If you are registered with Disney ,you can choose options from checklist  and pledge to do it .You can do an Earth day shop to celebrate Eco friendly selections from them - the organic Tees,Mugs,Bottles and Bags.One interesting point is that you can track where your organic shirt came from by taking the special code from your shirt  and entering them in their website TrackMyT .



TrackMyT Link : Journey of your Shirt 

The animations of the TrackMyT is fun and lets you know birth of your Shirt.Well,I should say here that after the animation video , your shirt then becomes a special one for you.You will never ever make them dirty ;) .If you dont have the unique code,dont worry .You can select the random option and enjoy your tour.Recommended for All .

Note : If you have a great idea in hand and want to propose a project for change in your community ,you can  apply for a grant to help make that project a reality. 


FREE RESOURCES OF ENERGY 

Revolution of SOLAR ENERGY :

I have already blogged in detail of about "What is Solar Energy and How does it work ?" and also about some few companies that offers Free solar panels too.Now, extending that further is my below writings 

Flexible Solar Panels:

Solar Panels are being used as a medium to generate electricity (see the link for more details) in offices, homes and corporate sectors. The price is being reduced with days and yet does not acheive a standard in which a common man can buy it.Then came the flexible solar panels that can help you charge your car battery /phone /ipod and sales at a price of US$141.95.Other afforadable forms generate low power that helps to ignite garden like solar lamps and bulbs (from one pound ) but generate very low power that lasts few hours or so. 


Educational Solar Kits [US $105.50] designed specifically to help people who are new to solar energy long with all you need to create your own Solar Energy - Link here

Vapour-deposited Solar Paper:

Solar energy resource is still a hot topic and more reseaches are going on .One of the invention is "You can print the solar cell just like you do with any other documents in a inkjet / printer".Portable,easy to use and viral ,it brings in a new revolution of Solar Energy .Dr.Karen Gleasen ,leader of the research team at MIT invented a way to print the solar cells in paper .It uses a revolnizing technology  to produce an array of colored rectangles on paper substrate with  Vapor printed electrode which holds a solar cells .The paper could be coated with standard lamination materials, to protect it from the elements for outdoor use.[More details]
Vapor-deposited Solar cells

Print Solar Paper

Yet another breakthrough is that The Institute for Print and Media Technology at Chemnitz University of Technology has developed photovoltaic panels that can be printed on standard paper.(Link here)


Solar Printer:
Using heat energy from the sun itself, this little printer uses the tanning process to print stuff on paper, instead of using the typical ink cartridges,an eco-friendly way to printing and documenting.Named as Tanning paper ,this little machine tans the paper in three steps therby giving you a professional printed paper.


Artwork your own Solar Print
You can print your own design and artwork using Solar Print paper available in Toy storesThe paper is sunlight-sensitive and so, you just lay it down in the bright sun with the objects on top for a moment or two. Then you  dunk the exposed paper in some water to set the print, let it dry and frame it. To get one ,google for Solar kits near your locality.

Dr.Nicola Telson Discoveries 

This person made me enlightened with a world of possibilities and has been a hot topic for me these days.He provoked me to write this post, make tweets and also made me watch every YouTube on the same. Dr.Nicola Telson - his findings on Universal Abundant of Free Energy Resources.

"Electricity power is everywhere present in unlimited quantities,it can drive the world's machinery without the need of Coal,Oil,Gas or any other machinery"-Nicola Tesla


He pictured the sun as an immense ball of electricity, positively charged with a potential of some 200 billion volts.The earth, on the other hand, is charged with negative electricity. In between the two, there is tremendous electrical force what is as called cosmic energy. The one energy that is always present though varied with time and season.

Nicola Tesla - The positive particles are stopped at the ionosphere, and between it and the negative charges in the ground, there is a large difference of voltage - something on the order of 360,000 volts. The region between the ground and the edge of space traps a great deal of energy.But, despite the large size of the planet, it is electrically charged like a capacitor. Keeping positive and negative charges apart by using the air as an insulator.This means that the Earth is surrounded by a Vast Pool of Energy - and we can use it for FREE!

Printable Antennas
Professor Manos Tentzeris shows off his team's creation " .Guess what? It is a Flexible, printable antennas create electricity from thin air"

Companies like RCA have been working on ways to harness the radio waves that are floating all around us.  The company’s Airnergy was shown off at CES 2010, touting its ability to charge any USB-equipped device by tapping into ambeint Wi-Fi signals in our homes and offices.



A group at the Georgia Instititue of Technology has taken this concept a bit further, developing power-harvesting antennas that are capable of tuning in to signals from FM radio all the way up to the same Wi-Fi signals used by the Airnergy.The power produced by this antenna is very small about one milliwatt. and is working to improve at a fast pace.

Magnetic Revolution
Telson's invention does not stop with this.Many of the greatest inventions have been suppressed in the past due of greed for money and power.Another powerful invention of Telson was A motor run solely by magnets in 1905.

"Magnets exert tremendous forces over short distances for long periods of time, with no energy input. “almost free energy” Energy was consumed to align the magnets, but, once aligned, they exert tremendous force."

UFO's flying Spacecraft /Flying Disc
Dr.Nicola Telson had the vision of bring this flying machine to reality 100 of years before.Can you imagine it?He already planned such a flying machine 

“The flying machine of the future—my flying machine—will be heavier than air, but it will not be an aeroplane. It will have no wings. It will be substantial, solid, stable. You cannot have a stable airplane. The gyroscope can never be successfully applied to the airplane, for it would give a stability that would result in the machine being torn to pieces by the wind, just as the unprotected aeroplane on the ground is torn to pieces by a high wind.

“My flying machine will have neither wings nor propellers. You might see it on the ground and you would never guess that it was a flying machine. Yet it will be able to move at will through the air in any direction with perfect safety, higher speeds than have yet been reached, regardless of weather and oblivious of “holes in the air” or downward currents. It will ascend in such currents if desired. It can remain absolutely stationary in the air, even in a wind, for great length of time. Its lifting power will not depend upon any such delicate devices as the bird has to employ, but upon positive mechanical action.”

Click for his Details of his proposal 


We all have the knowledge , the resources and the great minds like Telson's patented inventions of the same but we cannot get a break through in this invention utilizing it as a whole for a conman man use.The Government (so called Politics) and big companies( already minting money from commoners) wont let this happen.But we got one hope.This inventions is no longer a secrecy that has been suppressed through years.Through the viral media of Social networking and Internet , people have started to gain knowledge of this Free resources available and are ready to plans and invest more.

Finally, I am astonished about how the same five elements of nature :WIND ,FIRE,WATER,EARTH AND SKY  which have been all around us for billion of years are the one which generates us our FREE RESOURCES OF ENERGY .


Happy Earth Day April 22, 2012 !

Bikes are for the Men.I always ponder upon and sometimes try to scrutinise this fact.Being a mom of two children , a daughter and a son it's no wonder I find a lot of difference in their tastes from the way they behave to choosing their toys.My daughter is very soft in nature , loves pink colour and always love to have fairy tale characters to her addition of toys.I can sense the feeling of love and kindness in everything she does.On the other hand regarding my son , he is the reverse.He is the naughty one in my home, loves blue colour and always prefers to have wheels both on his legs and on his choice of toys.Cars, Bikes,Aeroplanes,Jeeps,Auto, Fire engine...everything that has wheels on it are his only choice .And my son will stand on his leg to buy them for him.He loves to drive in all sorts of vehicles and goes crazy for those stuffs. I always tend to hear these sentences  almost everyday from him .Mama,look up ...aeroplane flying .See, see the car ..whoosh it goes .Ah! what not. It's in his genes ,well I think he was born with an 'Y' to love these stuffs.

I too have been fascinated by bikes when they sport a unique look like the below image.I captured them when I went for a boat ride with my family.I should have captured their owners when they landed down with their bikes on the spot.They wore a look of pride holding their bikes! .And like many out there,I often give a glance or two or even more when those bulky kids stand on their legs on the roads or in the showroom.I 'm always awed by their shape and the way they have been designed.I envy the ones riding on Open High Ways like the Kings of their own land.Men must have a particular taste to select their toy ...yup Bikes.

"I call it Feminine looks. They have lot of curves in them and sure Men loves them.Men do have a lot of control over their bikes.They can gear them at their speed, have freedom of choice to turn, rock , roll over and even do gymnastics with them.That's why they love their babes.Some even go to the extent calling them their baby  : cleaning them everyday ,dressing them up creatively and also portray them with different looks"



I questioned my husband why he is attracted to the bikes from the Men's point of view.He told me that he loves their looks and the advantage of "I am the Hero" style it gives them.Who wouldn't agree with him?

Ride your Bike like a Horse 
Drive your Car like a Man  

Riding bikes tame the aggressive behavior of Men yet adds more pride and majestic look like a horse.

In many films, we see the hero's riding skill with their bike riding them at full speed in highways mostly with their friends or with his lover .You can see remarkable stunts during an incredible fight scene too.Some men have the habit of making a screeching sound with their bike mainly to attract female attentions. As for the women they do get attracted to its speed, the rush of cool air on their faces and nearness of her loved one when travelling on a bike.I have had these experiences when I ride with my husband on his bike.Once I even tried my hand on it ..those were the days .Hope I had a lot of stamina then ;)

Of course, the main reason to own a bike is its ease of  accessibility to every place within 500 kms from Home , its portability within a traffic roads and cost effective use for a middle class family.It comes with Helmet, a life saver for rides .The helmet also serves as an umbrella during rainy seasons.

And the BIKE  STUNTS, wow,only these Two wheeler ones can manage to do these tricks .I created a collage of bike stunts from the wallpapers I got hands of in google search engine.

Do you like my collage ??? -Uma
Stunt me with your looks
Hypnotized me as you took
My heart away with you
A beauty you drew
I wanted to touch you
Own you
Could'nt I ?
You are tagged a price
Now, my pocket money in dice
Well, here I come in queue
To own the new You.

If Woman wants to show off ,they have many options to do so .They are entitled to have a lot of accessorIES from make-up set, lipstick,hair clips, purses,bags, jewels, fancy items etc. But for Men, they are left with only few options.And the most important accessory for them is their vehicle.There seems to be an adrenaline rush from the time they are young (like my son) when they see those magnificent creations .No surprise Men are born to love their bikes .

This entry is a part and parcel of Indiblogger and Castrol Biking 's prompt "The Castrol Power1 Bikers Code "

Now, I wonder " Why Boys tend to prefer Blue colour and the girls tend to prefer Pink colour ?". The Shops Disney and more toy shops use this trick in their business .Guess what!! Even my Home says so .....

Are you the one who feels that some Parents are neglected or been tagged as Home alone parents?. Now there, you are not alone. Many including myself have been feeling the same in many circumstances and mostly at the time when they are sick and they need us.Now, I have to tell you that this post is not only true for those young ones who are living life abroad but sounds true for all who feels so.Not all young ones/couples stay relaxed in foreign land leaving their loved ones back at home far far away. How many children have neglected to care their elderly parents when in need due to their presence far-away from home ?. And should I spdcify those married women who wills but could not take care of their parents at their old age due to the rules in new family circumstances existing still in India?

Money has always been the essential and basic need in everyone's life to live in this materialistic world.Every contests , sweepstakes , bills, discounts and even the basic needs of your life ( food ,water, shelter) revolves around the Money.Without money ,  you are sure to be under the dark spell of electricity cut, dirty water, no phone calls, spread newspaper cuts of cheap rented homes and even going to sleep with an empty stomach. Such is the value for Money. The same Money is what makes young men and couples in India to run abroad  leaving behind their loved parents at Home creating a mystery net of misunderstood and mismanaged relationships.

Misunderstood Relationships :

I have seen many parents tend to lack care and affection in their old age.They need no money of yours but only your presence.But parents as always up to their name.They balance life giving more freedom to their kids in choosing their kind of life.And in today's scenario, more and more young married couples settle aboard for good.I can't deny the quality of life and money received in foreign countries.You buy a plot in India ,your kids study at quality schools and your life improves. Your life circle is smooth and easy. But , there are some neglected ones.The ones who were the reason for this type of life.They were the ones who raised you on this earth sacrificing the whole life for upbringing you to this position of who you are now.But,they are left behind after you found a new life whomever you are in regard of  man or woman.Although the truth being is that they love their parents but family circumstances restricts them to do what the parents really need. Love , affection and their children's presence .

But, the catch is here.Not all is happy back at home.Why? Because of unhappy wives.I have met many young Indian women's both from North and South especially from a joint  family who prefer this type of nuclear foreign  life style which is a kind of escape from home and problems.Few men also tend to settle in this type of foreign life escaping bad clashes between his parents and his wife . Should I blame wife here? No, not at all .The wife prefer this lifestyle because back at home in India, these young women's (wives) are the most neglected ones.

So where is the key ?A Man's Attitude towards his loved ones is the only hold for this situation. Family for Men is like a Physical Balance.With wife on one side and with his parents on the other, he should be able to balance them both.He should not completely fall off left or right which is a condition of an unhappy family. And overdoing it, he falls the prey for Depression .

Now having crossed half the bridge, you might have noticed the cycle of chain revolving around Money and problem-less foreign life but somewhere a link is broken under the name of neglected old age parents of both Men and Woman which creates an imbalance to a Happy Satisfied Married Life of both the couples.

The Bloom in Internet Industry and hot use of Webcam/Chats are everywhere now because they act as bridge connecting the broken link of love /affection between family and friends.Most of all, they serve to act as panacea to the lonely hearts back at home.

If there is to be a change , then we have to reprogram  the Human mind to work for regenerating the chain of a happy family.


Only a Happy Home could create a Happy society -> Happy Country -> an Happy World .

There is no pointing fingers at anyone.No one to be blamed here.Because this is what we have been taught and learned in the process of evolution as Human beings which finally has brought us into an unrest Home and unhappy family.We need to change everything that has brought our heart to decay.If you want to change the way you live, then Change it.If you want to recreate a new life , then create it.

There is STILL TIME to bring about this change at least for your future generations ......

Time to Change the attitude of Men of demeaning woman as weaker sex and making them to feel the odd one out in his family.Don't treat her like a servant making her do all the works for your family without any time for herself. If she feels among the one in your family which should be seeded , developed and cultivated by the husband's approach of her in his family , then there is no need for neglected parents or wives.

Time to Change the attitude of woman to safeguard the links between both her birth-place relationship and new found relationships.She has to take care of her family in regard of health wealth and love. If she feels one among your family which should be seeded , cultivated and developed by the husband's approach in his family then there is no need for neglected parents and wives.


Time to Change the egoistic attitude and being flexible to each other needs in a destined bond between husband and wives .

Time to Change for the Human World to know that Value of Love is far far precious than Value of Money.

Time to Change for the December 2012 , that the new era has been inculcated not by Fear but by Love .

Time to Change and Reprogram the Human Mind to see that each one of them is a part of another human being. A piece of  a large puzzle. A connecting link that knows the weight of Love.

And Finally this is the Time of Change to accept that both the genders Husband and Wife have their duty and responsibility to take care of their Parents when in need especially in their Old Age. And you DO it and help someone DO it when you have to .... 

The Love that you Withhold  is the Pain That You Carry For Lifetime

Note : This post was is what I personally felt to be the most needed one in today's life.We work,we live but we forget some people who really made a difference in our life.The reason are circumstances.But why these circumstances has to be a barrier between unconditional love.So through this post ,I reflected my thoughts.
 Also, I as a part of Indiblogger have published this post for Time to Change contest  for "Be the voice of change and tell us what you would want to change around you!." hosted by Indiblogger .I personally thank Indiblogger and StayFree for hosting this contest 
I WISH TO HAVE THE MAGIC WAND TO BRING IN THE CHANGE THAT MAKES THE WORLD TO BE A HAPPY PLACE FILLED ONLY WITH LOVE AND AFFECTION.

T
he Time has come to say good-bye to the irritable things I witness me around .I have been voicing my thoughts in my blog through my writings and this time I have been given a chance to blog about a Cause.Thanks to the sparks brought in by Stay free along with Indiblogger who joined hands to Voice out the Change this world needs.Now, I am a part of this #timetochange voicing out my opinion and hoping to bring about the change I dream of...

I am not into any politics nor do I have interest in them but as a normal human being I felt that still the people of India have been lacking in the basic needs of their life.Even the foremost basic need of Water, Food and Shelter is still a dream for thousands and thousands of Indians.Now joining hands is the need of electricity too.Where have we headed too?? Is it behind thirty decades back......

One can still see the beggars all around the city of Chennai and Mumbai while travelling.He/ she is still deprived of his basic needs and the need of being treated as a Human .Whose fault is this?Even the woman and small children are not left out.

How would you feel when you are nagged by a woman asking for money when you are about to cross the road or hurrying up for an important meet.I have observed people who ignores them , shouts at them and yet some who pity them.Whatever your reaction may be, she/he is never going to leave you behind.Because she  never wants to reads your mind-set whether you are sad or happy but all she/he knows that she can expect to get a one/two ruppee coin from you that may serve her a tea that evening.

There are times I get irritated by their presence in almost every places I visit. Omnipresent they are!.And when I think about it later, I used to tell my friends of how poor and illiterate India still is.I remember my friend saying that only we people encourage them to beg by giving them the money they need .Encourage?? How ?? Yes,in a place where the rate of people visit is high say in a temple or in a traffic , these so called beggars tries to get the salary as a normal fruit-seller (or) fish-seller would do in a day.

If you enquire any of them why they beg, they would say that they are not young enough to go out in the sun and earn money for their daily breads.This is very True.Normally, we can see the people who beg are OLD or SOMEONE who is an handicapped.But, even some handicapped people chose to earn his bread by selling water and juice packets under the sun instead of just begging in the streets. Why this difference??

The difference lies in their self-respect.But, yet those who still begs have crossed the limit of self-respect because Hunger is killing them stronger in their body than their self-respect.And so except for Hunger, they are deprived of other worries and dreams. But, this is not the way to Live Life.This attitude must and have to change.Though they(beggars I would text here) dont heed to give respect for themselves ,what about us? We have the need to respect them at least for their age or as in the sense of humanity. A mere one rupee coin or two rupee coin would never bring that change.

C
hange is an inevitable thing and this kind of change will surely make Dr.Abdul kalam dream of powerful India. Jobs are everywhere ...the right use of them makes us a living.For,this people (beggars) should be guided by another people or by the Government and show them the right path.An initiative to bring awareness to people including the beggars may also be fruitful.People should learn to share resources and ideas if we expect to survive in the long run. They should learn to respect and grown humanity among all beings.

This change would have an effect at least for the next generations to come.And people from other country would visit a beggar free India.This change would definitively bring a positive change around us and the place where we live.Because ,this is not the case of a single place in Chennai or Mumbai .It is the case seen all over India.A small idea of change can make India , a beggar free country.


One idea is to , 
create banners that says "Say NO to Begging ,Join the Revolution to create or make Jobs" and giving them a link (or) id that points to a group of people who are ready to work as a consultant helping those who contact them to get to work in small scale companies/jobs.These people can be a Government appointed ones (or) those who loves to do social works.These groups should be encouraged to develop and communicate to the masses of beggars . They can be contracted for household helps too ( I know many who really needs a house help ...Yes! Jobs are everywhere.)

As for the Old people, the government should make sure they are put into Old age homes where they are taken care of.

My second thought ,
is that to encourage Beggars to display their skills instead of saying the repetitive line " Amma Thayae , picha poddu ma" [Ma , Please give money ]. Here, I would like to point out that Beggars are not only in India. There are beggars in the rich country like UK and US too but they dont carry the tag "Beggars".Because, they display there skills ,their talents entertaining people coming to the public places and public events .And as a token of appreciation, people themselves put the coins into their hat or spread cloth. 

The difference here is that, in UK/US , people don't nag another people for money . Beggars are still everywhere .Instead of just throwing away the money for to the begging people , we should encourage people below poverty line to hone their skills/ talents and in- turn earn a living through them.

Finally we should teach our children to kindly treat the beggars and in the worst case, to just avoid them.We should encourage to provide works to these people as lack of steady income is the main reason to chose this type of begging work. There are yet some people who begs for other reasons too : Lack of skills and lack of hard work.These people should be aware that there is NO FREE FOOD .Social responsibility by the Government and individual people would definitively clear out the beggars in and around the public places .The most influential being , we are developing Oneness in Humanity.

It will produce a tremendous change in the way we live and treat people.Ripples of awareness brings the Change we need to see in our own country .I finally thank the people who made me write a post and making it into a stream where hundreds of bloggers and other people read.If you really encourage my voice of thought, kindly share this post to your friends and let me know your thoughts.

This entry is a part of BlogAdda contests in association with Zapstore.com
Love – Adventure – Miracle

The below episode is my TRUE EXPERIENCE where I felt all the above three words taking its shape .You might wonder on a particular word above : Miracle.What miracle would I have experienced ?.All along my post, I have highlighted particular words as it was needed for this post.Ah ,well I can hear what you say.Okay friends , here you go .....

I was travelling from UK to Chennai airport all alone with my two kids.I have booked the flight ticket online for Air India flight from London Heathrow Airport to Delhi ,Indira Gandhi International Airport. And from Delhi my destination is to Anna International Airport ,Chennai.


Before boarding the plane,I took out my newly gifted HTC Wildfire Mobile Phone by my hubby and PHONED(called) him to inform him that I have finished the security check and now standing near the Gate 2 to board my plane.Though I have travelled alone on flights, this was my first flight which was not the direct flight and so he repeated again and again that I have to remove the luggage and then recheck in at the Delhi counter and get a domestic boarding pass.After a finally adieu with love, I boarded the plane.Making myself and my kids comfortable on the three-seated window seat of the plane,I MESSAGED my hubby of my take-off and upon request from the air-hostess intro section ,I switched my mobile phone to the AIRPLANE MODE .Soon,I was travelling high in the air with the company of my two little and naughty kids.
Taking Off.....
All through my long travelling , I was entertaining my kids with inbuild movies on the plane seat and with my Downloaded GAMES/VIDEOS from my HTC Wildfire Mobile Phone till the time they slept tight.Finally,we landed at the Delhi airport and was 15 minutes late due to some air turbulence .

The time was 11.00 p. when I landed in Delhi and I had solely one hour to board my next flight .that is 12.00 p.m.Immediately my made my way into the airport with my hand luggage and my kids.I then was waiting on the belt line to receive my other baggage ,two to say correctly.It took nearly twenty minutes to see the glance of my luggage.When it came finally on my hand, I searched for any signs to again for transferring to the domestic lines.Since I was completely new to the airport ,I had a hard time finding it asking everyone with a sign on their ID card but sadly none responded in the most correct way.By God sake, I found at last .I was running to the sign that said”Transfers “ with my two kids and the luggage.

I was transport to a lift (waiting for it coming down) .I saw the CLOCK on my Mobile phone pointing to 11.40 just 20min to the take off.I was nervous .I finally landed on the lift praying all the way.

To my disappointment, I was a line of check –in counters addressing each fight from end A to end F( that’s what they named each line/row of counters).I was again trying to read my Airport AI in every counter.Finally I got it, and went as fast as I can to the counter and produced my Tickets.


This is how it looked ..all in a row with each for a Airplane
The women on the counter looked at my tickets and with a frown on her face toks me that the fight has been boarded and I cannot take that flight.

That’s it.I was finished.I was stranded at the airport in a new place all alone with my kids.I could sense my fear rising and I helplessly was looking at my kids who were tired and exhausted all through the way.Gathering all my strength, I asked them again when was the next flight to Chennai so that I can be transferred to it telling them what all that I have undergone just to land here at this spot.

To my shock ,they replied that there is only one flight to Chennai ,that too at 4.30p.m and I can't board it because it is full.So I have to take the flight only on the next day.Till then I should make my own arrangement of staying elsewhere out of the airport .

Before they could finish those words,I could feel tears developing near my eyes.I was struggling to gather words asking them to help me since Delhi was a new place to me and I have no one else to support me either.Damn!..even my Mobile was out of network since I did not activate my international ROAMING on my Mobile phone.Now, I cant even inform my state to my family who will be waiting for us the Chennai Airport.

But all I got was a complete and still silence from them.They were clear that it was like a normal check-in process no matter whether I boarded the international fight to domestic flight and they can do nothing about my state.I was completely blank looking at my kids who were not able to understand the circumstance they were in.They were already exhausted and said they were hungry.I was praying for some help.

Just then a Miracle happened.

Yes,I should name it as a miracle.I was not the only one stranded at the airport .There was yet another women who was arguing on the same.She was now standing on my side and arguing that it was not her fault that she missed the plane.Seeing her that she was also from London ,the same air plane that I had boarded .She too was travelling to Chennai ,again through the same flight number.Now,thankfully I felt at ease,I had a company.(Should I say how relived I was??)

The Miracle did not end here.We were not alone.A few more joined us one by one and finally we were 14 of us including me and my kids.All had the same destination and have to board the same plane AI 002.There was one old couple, and one women(the lady I met first) and others were working men ( incl. me and my two kids).As we say that Unity is strength, the mens argued with the employers that they had very little time to take the baggage which came late and then also had little time to check in into the counters (which was true).Even the flight was 15 minutes late.Finally the Air India people agreed to find suitable arrangement in the next 4.30 flight. We were asked to submit the tickets and get booked for the next fight.

We were relieved.Again for me the problem did not end there.Now I had misplaced my ticket with all the fuss that I undergone alone running with my tickets for help.Every one had their seat booked for the next flight.I was still searching mine.Finally, I told them that I misplaced my ticket and showed them my boarding pass from London to Delhi and other details .They were cross and demanded the ticket to board the fight or to wait till the head officer comes( the time was unknown).I saw that the other stranded people got the boarding pass being issued and they were ready to be on the way .They saw my pledge and supported me to get a copy of my ticket through Internet since I had used online ticket booking.(Salut!..to internet)They were like a saviours for me.The lady at the counter , a delhi wala can't believe what she saw.She replied in a strong and true voice “You should be lucky to get these people.Your people are really supportive.”As she said those words, I could see her eyes filled with astonishment.At that time.I felt what I normally read in school ”Tamil Patrru/Naatru Pattru” meaning Love and belonging to the same community(à®’à®°ே ஊரு à®®à®•்கள்  -தமிà®´்நாடு à®®à®•்கள்  ) .

Then after getting the boarding pass,we all went together and had our lunch in the Airport lunch corner.We introduced our self .After a chat,we become from acquaintance to friends and we exchanged numbers. I happily stored them in my Phone CONTACTS with their names.I, with the help of the old couple also called my family to inform what had happened and my arrival time.Then,we all spend the rest of the hours together feeling like a little family. “ Neega Tamila, ada nanum Tamilian thaan “.Somewhere ,we felt we had a Love of our same community and language .Purachimani ,the lady I first met and I became close friends.We even took snaps and videos of each other as a token of remembrance of this memorable incident while waiting for boarding the Plane with the help of our Mobile Phone CAMERA and CAM-RECORDER(wow, how multitasking is this Mobile invention).We all flocked together helping each other till we boarded the 4.30 p.m AI flight.


At the Delhi Airport-Friends Na...
Our final destination came and we landed Chennai.I have read and heard stories of friend ship when travelling on Train(as we say "Rail Payannum”).Like it, I felt I had such friendship in Air.We 14 people had traveled the same flight from London to Delhi for 10 hours without even knowing each other.But during this small halt of 30 minutes in Delhi had paved way a beautiful friendship with some reliable and unknown faces.I learned to make sure to receive my boarding pass for the domestic flight at the London airport itself in future and also helped my husband who travel on the same route/plan as mine.

I even introduced some of my newly found friends to my family members waiting for me at the airport.

I had two extreme of adventure with a sad and happy moment at  the Delhi airport.I witnessed the Love that people have for their own people especially when in some foreign land or in a new place /unknown language.I also had witnessed a miracle of being rescued from a bad incident(Luckily it turned out to be a memorable one).I understood how people come forward to give hands to its own people whether they know them or not.Finally, I have found a new friendship that bloomed into closer  one.(Voila ..We still keep in touch ).I am even surprised now of how strange and sentimental the whole episode is!

Sunday, January 1, 2012

The New Year 2012 has started and we are reaching our way to Dec 21,2012 marked as the end of the world with deceiving popular beliefs that corresponds to the subsequential catastrophic events occurring all around the world . The 2012 phenomenon.  

The 2012 phenomenon ?? WHAT and WHY ?
It is a known fact that is been circulating from 1998 that the world is reaching its end very soon in the year 2012,  through all forms of medias and best-selling books.


REASONS :
Mayan Calender :
The Mayan civilization devised a calender called as the long count calender which uses units of 20 to calculate each cycle using the format  0.0.0.0.0 .
1 uinal - 20 days
18 uinals - 360 days - 1 tun 
20 tuns - 1 k'atun
20 k'atun - 1 b'ak'tun-144,000 days

So, it means that the Mayan Calender 6.2.5.9.12 means 6 b'ak'tuns, 2 k'tuns,5 tun ,9 uinals and 12 days.The Long Count's  "0 " date was set in the past marking the end of the third world and the beginning of the current one corresponding to 11 August 3114 BC in the proleptic Gregorian calendar. So now, this means that the fourth world will also have reached the end of its 13th b'ak'tun, or Mayan date 13.0.0.0.0, on December 21, 2012.The Mayan calender ends on this particular day marking the end of the era , a destruction or a catastrophe with the end of the world.Whereas , some scholars depicts it as a new era marking a new spiritual arisal of humankind in earth.


Planet X (or) Nibiru :
One of the belief is that there is a Planet X or brown drawf that is trailing  its  path towards the earth at the speed 40 miles per hour .It is calculated to hit the earth on Dec 21,2012. But before that, as it reaches the galatic center of the earth ,earth will undergo a lot of transforamtion under its effects with catastrophe of earthquake, tusnami,polar shifts , etc marking the end of the world.


Polar Shifts
Earth's magnetic field has flipped its polarity many times over the millennia and it follows a pattern of a pole reversal about every 200,000 to 300,000 years,That means the current North pole will become the new South Pole and vice versa.Is THIS true?? Earth's polarity is not constant.It is moving faster and scientists has estimated that the pole is migrating northward about 40 miles per year, as opposed to about 10 miles per year in the early 20th century.


The doomsday theory assumes that a pole reversal would momentarily leave Earth without the magnetic field (as it gets weakens ) which protects us from solar flares and coronal mass ejections from the sun marking the end of the world.


Planetary alignments or Galactic alignment:

It is believed that a cosmic alignment of the sun, Earth, the center of our galaxy  or perhaps the galaxy's thick dust clouds on the winter solstice could for some unknown reason lead to destruction.We all live in a moving and a circulating path called the milky way (galaxy) which hosts our Earth and other planets.Our galaxy has a galactic center about 28,000 light years away which has a black hole weighing about 4 million imes the sun's mass.


So on. Dec21,2012 , the sun will pass about 6.6 degrees north of the galactic center (about 13 times the full moon's apparent size) and it's actually closer a couple of days earlier. The notion is that as the sun enters the Dark Rift (i'e. as it bisects the galactic disc in the galactic plane , the influence of the galactic tide is weaker), it comes under the influence of the far stronger "disc tides" creating likelihood of a devastating comet impact.Such alignment occurs in Dec 21,2012 where the sun and Earth aligns themselves with the black hole in the galactic center allows some kind of massive gravitational pull on Earth destroying Earth.

Solar Storms :
Solar activity  are regular ones that occurs every year and peaks itself approximately every 11 years.On 2001, it had its peak effect ,so it is assumed that the next Solar Storm should occur after 11 years ,that is on 2012 .Solar flares can cause some interruption of satellite communication and disrupt cellular connections  though no other devastating activities are calculated.


The  above are all some of the believes  with half truth and half assumptions though none have been proved to be the exact predictions.Some regular events becomes devastating events and yet some vice versa.


Soothing all the above events is the below summary that I found to be more agreeable that states the reality of humankind or say the end of the world.

Indian Prophecy of 21 December 2012
21st December 2012 is now just a little over a year away. A crescendo is going to built up as we approach D Day. I have been studying and writing about this much awaited event for some 3 years now.There is definitely going to NO END ON 21 DECEMBER 2012.Having said that, I do not mean that there is going to nothing; a lot is happening and is going to happen in the very near future.


21st December 2012, marks the peak of the Kali Yuga [the age of darkness which is underway at the present moment].according to HINDU COSMOLOGY.In the Kali Yuga the sum total of the frequencies of truthfulness decrease by 75%. .What this means is that, there is imbalance in THE THREE FORCES OF GOD, Brahma [creative], Vishnu [protective] and Mahesh [destructive].These are the three forces; the sum total of which is Existence. As of now the balance has tilted 75% in favor of the destructive forces. The origin of ancient Indian cosmology or Hindu cosmology has never been traced; unlike other systems like, the Mayan Calendar. Indian cosmology is normally believed to be of divine origin.The real significance of this prophecy, decoded by me is that the elements of destruction, can never exceed 75% of the sum total of all the frequencies which make up the cosmos; this is THE TRUTH; the real truth. If this limit is attempted to be breached, there is auto correction and the consequences are disastrous.

What this means is as of now the destructive elements, with the New World Order ,right at the top, have reached their limit. As per the Laws of nature, they cannot exceed this limit. Any attempt to do so would open the flood gates of destruction, the same way as a Dam bursts open, after the limit is reached.There are no signs of slowing down by the destructive elements, in fact more and more effort towards destructive pursuits is going on. The economic giants who control the world, now faced with collapse, after having reached the limit, are desperately trying to find more and more sources of income.

21st December 2012 as I said earlier is a date when the destructive forces peak. The period of correction[strife] began some time back. Those who wait for natural disasters,Allens and comet hits, need not do so. It is man and man alone who is responsible for the current state of affairs and the unimaginable destruction is going to be caused by man and nothing else.


The much awaited change will be caused by a huge war or World War 3.The disasters like famine and plague will be the after effects of this huge war. Mankind will survive and the world wont disappear; but life after the coming World Climax will not be the same as we know it to be now. This is the Indian prophecy which I have decoded on - 21st December 2012

On Conclusion, if we are headed towards the Doomsday , then yes, we should be prepared both mentally and spiritually to be Humans first .Each part of the world has loosen its peace in form of cultural devastation, wars for money and jobs,Humans pointing another Human within a fraction of a second.So it is really necessary to see that destruction SHOULD NOT BE caused by Humans ( through Terrorism, Nuclear weapons, Political Pitfalls ,Wars for Resources like Water and Land )  although Natural calamities are beyond our hands.
