Facts and Figures-61: "Antarctica losing 190,000,000,000 tons of ice per year!"

A news item in Harper's Weekly (Harper's Weekly Review, November 24, 2009) says that Antartica was now losing, hold your breath, 190,000,000,000 tons of ice per year! I am curious how scientists arrive at these mind-boggling figures.

Eyecatchers-143: "Global Warming Science is a Fraud?"

A collection of emails from leading climatologists was stolen by hackers and released online; climate-change skeptics said the emails demonstrated that global-warming science is a fraud, while the scientists said that that's just what science looks like.

My Video Album-1: My 60th Birthday Celerbations



This video was taken by one of my relatives, Mr.Sivasankaran, during my 60th birthday celebrations. He has added some background music, a Tamil film song, and sent it to me by email. Then I posted it to YouTube and again uploading it here for the benefit of the visitors of my blog. This was a joyous occasion for me, my friends and relatives. We were always enjoying ourselves which you can see it for yourself.

Grateful thanks to Mr.Sivasankaran and YouTube.

Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,

To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.
