Lake Nessi AKA Loch Ness: Water Water Everywhere...

 


Brentwood (United Kingdom), 26 August: The next day we went to see Lake Nessi also pronounced as Loch Ness in Sweedish. Loch Ness is a freshwater lake. It extends nearly to 37 kilometres and flows from North to South. 


Cryptozoological Loch Ness monster: It is also famous for its claimed sighting of the cryptozoological Loch Ness monster, also known as the Nessie. It is one of a series of interconnected murky bodies of water in Scotland River. Ness leads to the North Sea via Moray Firth. 


Not been proven authentically. Loch Ness is also known as the home of the mythical character Loch Ness Monster. Though many claims have been made regarding its existence, due to a lack of proper proof, it has not been proven authentically.


The feeling of watching a sea: The Lake looks very huge and at times gives the feeling of watching a sea. We spent some time on the beach and proceeded way back to the Caravan. We came across so many hillocks and all along we could witness waterfalls dipping down from the top. The same slender falls later get transformed into streams and it is a great experience watching them flowing down and forming streams. 


A rare sight of beauty: We can see water everywhere and moss with grass growing on it making it a rare treat to the eyes, which is why the tourists throng to have a glance. One can find countless lakes as far as the eye can stretch. On the whole, it is a rare sight of beauty. 


Countless snaps to do landscape paintings: Suri and Maruti kept themselves busy by clicking countless snaps to do landscape paintings after returning home. 


Admission to see closed: On the way back we went to a whiskey distillery. Unfortunately, admission to see the factory was closed. However, they were offering the whiskey samples for tasting. 


Group of tourists found scrambling for whiskey samples: There was a group of tourists from India who were found scrambling around for whiskey samples!

When Punjab Chief Minister's Son Was Paraded On Underwear

Year, 1959, Place Amritsar. Some Indian Army Officers & their wives went to the Railway Station to see off one of their colleagues. Some goons made lewd remarks against the women & tried to molest them. The Army Officers chased the goons who took shelter in a nearby Cinema Theatre. The matter was reported to Commanding Officer Col Jyothi Mohan Sen. On learning about the incident, the Col ordered the Cinema Hall to be surrounded by troops. All the goons were dragged out, the leader of the goons was so heady and drunk with power; he was none other than the son of Chief Minister of Punjab, Pratap Singh Kairon, a close associate of the then PM, Jawahar Lal Nehru. All the goons were stripped to their underwear, paraded in the streets of Amritsar & later interned in the Cantonment. The next day, the Chief Minister became furious & tried to release his son from Indian Army's incarceration. Do you know what happened? His vehicle was not allowed to go into the Cantonment a

Dear Friends! I am Dr P K Samantaray, MBBS, MD from AIIMS, New Delhi. I am working as Professor and HOD Psychiatry, at Jagjivan Ram Hospital, Mumbai. I would like to make a small request to you. Before that, I would like to share a small piece of information with you. Many of you might have read today's newspapers that EMRI results say a majority of people having Heart Attacks are less than 50 years old. *You will be surprised to know the culprit is Palm Oil.

Dr Godwin Shiri: An Accomplished Theologist, Author, Research Scholar and Social Scientist..

Dr Godwin Shiri as the name itself suggests is truly a Godly person who won the hearts of people all along and wherever he went across the globe. He is a well-read, widely travelled religious personality having contributed any number of books and translations of eminent philosophers. He is turning 79 today and looking back there seems to be a huge list of accomplishments worth cherishing on the way. Priest on his own inclination: Dr Godwin Shiri himself voluntarily opted for the priestly vocation of becoming a Pastor at a young age, much against the wishes of his family. The sight of the Cross of Lord Jesus Christ and the scenario of thousands of workers marching holding red flags in his native town Mangaluru had a lasting effect on him as a young boy. Recalling the good old days Godwin Shiri admits-"Perhaps they sowed in me the seeds of compassion and social justice".
