These signs, exhorting the faithful to read the Thirukural, are all over Cantonment parts of Bangalore.
I went to the farm yesterday. We're growing a lot of sweet corn this season, many many acres to give many many tons.
The calf was adorable, with the most gorgeous eyes, yet I found myself thinking, "Veal Chops!"
I had posted a while ago on the Red Rain that hit Kerala. Here is an update to that post. The article is from Popular Science.
