Dusk in Mount Lavinia

A beautiful dusk I captured one evening in Mount Lavinia. These subtle colours gracing the evening sky was a pleasure to watch as the sun hid beneath the horizon.













The colours became more warm into the sunset.

Tamil Virtual University - Digital Library

The  Tamil Virtual University is a resourceful site for the Tamil communities living in different parts of the globe as well as others interested in learning Tamil and acquiring knowledge of the history, art, literature and culture of the Tamils. A very appealing feature of the site is the digital library presenting a rich resource of classified books, ancient and medieval literature and also romanised versions of Tamil literary works. 


A section for technical glossaries (claims of approximately 2 lakhs terms uploaded) with Tamil technical terms in all the disciplines including Information Technology/Engineering & Technology can be referenced. 

The tongue!

Its a dull Sunday noon... and I was thinking over the sermon at our church which surrounded the teachings of guarding our tongues... Following are some extracts of passages I referred in the bible telling us about the words we utter...

"Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear." Ephesians 4:29
"Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, you worker of deceit." Psalm 52:2
"Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceit." Psalm 34:13

Whoever I may have hurt in the past with my words... my mom or a friend or whoever it may be... I sincerely asked for forgiveness from God and prayed that I may always and always remember to guard my tongue and words I utter... But sometimes when situations in life require truth or the need to stand up and voice your thought on something that you may feel is not fair... our tongues tend to be sharp...don't they! That too..I decided today..I would try being more careful... I will try... ;-)

These images (by Reuters) extracted from one of the top stories on yahoo news today.... illustrates innocent birds toiling in a oil spill... I wish they had tongues to question us... the 'humans'... on our actions and life styles suffocating them!

My favourite links... random...

One of my favourite sites that give out free images is www.freedigitalphotos.net. They give away quality images especially in the categories of natural world, backgrounds & illustrations and celebration and no registration required!

Whenever I feel like a taking a break with a online-game, I usually seek refuge at www.miniclip.com. A friend of mine once introduced it to me and ever since, I've enjoyed playing some of those among a huge list of games to choose from. Though some are heavy in graphics there are also simple ones you can have fun playing.

A good site to download free piano scores of Yanni’s great compositions is http://my-piano.blogspot.com/... Also has loads and loads of piano scores from Beatles to Beyonce!
