Oh..No..

After making it to the top headlines for the past one week, BCCI decided to offer Graham Ford , the Indian Cricket coach job. But now, there is another twist. Graham Ford has declined the offer.

This is what is called .."Aapu.. Kanna ..Aapu"

Battle of Clay

Rafael Nadal has once again proved himself. He bet Roger Federer in a thrilling four setter to claim the French Open title..third time in a row.

BBC Sports has a nice analysis on how Nadal bet Federer on clay.

Mylapore Karpagambal Mess

This place just stands still in time...It must be an envy for all the big time AD guys..not a penny spent for promotion, yet the Mylapore experience is deemed complete with a visit to Karpagambal mess.

Just today, had the pleasure of Degree Coffee (whatz a degree in coffee?) & hot hot idly sambar.But my biggest grouse is that the hotel can definitely make some arrangements for cleanliness. A first timer will get a heart attack seeing the pathetic way in which it is maintained. The owners are sure raking in money...wish they could spend something on creating a better ambiance.

Mylai Karpagambal mess is bang opposite to Bharathiya Vidya bhavan near Kapaleeshwarar temple.

Tintin - Movie in the making

Can you imagine that 23 of Tintin's adventures were written between 1929 to 1976!!. The author Hergé died midway thro the 24th book. And he had left a will that virtually banned any new illustrated adventures after his death.

But the good news is that Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson would be making three existing Tintin stories as movies. Times Online gives an inside view of whatz cooking up. Wonder which three??

Small Trivia: Tintin creator's original name is Georges Remi. Hergé is the French pronunciation of "R.G.", the reverse of his initials.

Helmet Compulsory

From today onwards Helmet wearing has been made compulsory in chennai (all of tamilnadu -later date?) for two-wheeler riders as well as pillion riders. The helmet shops had a roaring business all through the night.

Guess the traffic police will also have a roaring business - 100Rs. fine if you are not wearing a helmet.
