Blogging in Tamil - தமிழில் வலைப்பதிதல்

Here's what you do:

1. Download the e-Kalappai editor. It is free and if you google, you will hit it quite easily.

2. Once you have it running, you can use notepad to type in Tamil. Just type the English sounds for the Tamil word and voila!

3. e-Kalappai uses a Tamil font called TSC. In order for the blog to be readable in browsers without having the special font installed, the TSC font has to be converted into Unicode. Here's the link for that: http://www.suratha.com/reader.htm

Just paste your tamil blog into the top text box. Choose the font you used (TSC, in this case) and you get your Unicode version in the textbox below.

4. Now, just paste your blog into blogger and you're done!

Exercising Vs Dieting to reduce the body weight

Here are the reasons why exercise - not dieting - is the good method of losing body fat:

1. Exercise – aerobic and weight training - raises your metabolic rate.
Dieting decreases your metabolic rate.

2. Exercise creates a caloric deficit without triggering the starvation
response.

3. Exercise is good for your health. Dieting is harmful to your health.

4. Exercise, especially weight training, signals your body to keep your
muscle and not burn it for energy. Dieting without exercise can result
in up to 50% of the weight loss to come from lean body mass.

5. Exercise increases fat-burning enzymes and hormones. Dieting
decreases fat burning hormones and increases fat storing
hormones.

6. Exercise increases the cells sensitivity to insulin so that
carbohydrates are burned for energy and stored as glycogen rather
then being stored as

So, If someone tries to sell you a program for losing weight and it doesn’t
include exercise (it’s just a “diet”), hold on to your wallet and run for cover.
Even if you could get lean without exercise, you should be working out for
your health anyway, not just for cosmetic reasons.

 3. Third one that is me on the newly build Flyover in Cuddalore. The flyover constructed at the cost of Rs.12 Crores. The fly over constructed to free the traffic jam used to get when the Railway gate being closed in Thiruppapuliyur. I should realy
appreciate the Tamilnadu CM J.Jayalalitha for her achivement of this constructing the flyover, it is one of the ever need demand of Cuddalore residents. This flyover actaully add value to the Cuddalore.

    To reach my home, hereafter i do not have to wait when the railway gate closed. Luckily I got flyover now.

4.  The last one was taken in Cuddalore Port - Singarathoppu Bridge. This bridge resemble Chennai's famous Napier bridge.
I happened to this Singarathoppu in Cuddalore O.T , a 10 years ago. That time i went to the Singarathoppu by boat. Now there is new bridge and picture has changed now. It has got a new look.  Glad to know that the bridge has saved people on the latest Tsunami when attacked Cuddalore on Dec 24, 2004.

  There are lot more loactions to shoot in Cuddalore. I try to shoot and add more.
