AR.Rehman strikes back with "New York Nagaram"

Once again AR.Rehman has proved he is the best music director & singer with the audio release of “Silunu Oru kadhal“.The song that I’m listening for the last 24hrs is none other than the “New York nagaram” sung by AR.

AR is following the footsteps of his guru Illayaraja in this album also,the songs sung by them becomes a hit first then other songs catch up after sometime.There are exception if its a Rajnikanth movie or a song by SPB,Yesudas these 3 outshine any one.

As far as other songs,”Jilunu Oru Kadhal” is good,other songs are not catchy or memorable,but that’s the usual way with AR music.

List of songs sung by AR.Rehman from Raaga.com,check it out all R gr8 hits.

Lightning caught on my mobile

The weather yesterday at Tulsa was real bad.There was a thunderstorm and me and my friend karthik were driving through heavy rain.

I shot a picture of the lightning…it was within a 2 mile radius from our position for sure.Since I was recording a video,the clarity of the picture is pretty bad.It was hell of a day,we saw at least 3 fire engines moving towards the direction of the lightning soon afterwards.

Windows Live Writer Beta

I’m using Windows Live Writer Beta now to write this Blog.It connected with my blog pretty easily,just a few clicks and here U start blog.One gr8 feature all Microsoft applications have.My first impression,I like it,its easy,its quick and no more editing HTML tags.WordPress Interface was not good..but Windows Live Writer goes a Mile ahead and clearly wins the race.

Airport Security Issue

I really don’t worry abt the new airline security regulation of not allowing liquids on board the aircraft.Unless the air-carrier promises to provides me..

  1. Good water that doesn’t contain an E-coli Bacteria.I remember studying a article by FDA abt the poor water quality served in flight,they mentioned the quality as bad as water from a lavatary.I don’t want to drink that and get sick during my vacation.
  2. Opti free

They have to provide free lens cleaning solutions for those who travel in the flight for sure.generally people fall asleep during flight and its not advisable to wear contact lenses while sleeping,even if u do,eyes r going to burn once u wake up..so its neccessary for people to remove lenses,without cleaning solution..its going to more painful.

If the airliens can do that for me..I’m pretty much happy..otherwise..airtravel sucks…for sure..
