Costly Wedding Dress

A saleswoman shows a wedding dress bearing 9,999 karats of gems at a jewellry store in Shangrao in eastern China’s Jiangxi province

If you think bejeweled wedding dresses are not enough to be an eye-opener, how about a wedding dress bearing 9,999 karats, or about two kilograms of gems?

Such a dress has been put on sale at a jewelry store in Shangrao in eastern China’s Jiangxi province.

A report says it is a work by a well-known Hong Kong jewelry designer.

Its price tag reads 999,999 yuan (132,902 U.S. dollars).

The sky-high price has raised many eyebrows. Admirers said the dress was astonishingly beautiful, but they thought no one would make the bold purchase.

What is Love?????

If you love someone because you think that he or she is really gorgeous...

then it's not love..

it's - Infatuation...

If you love someone because you think that you shouldn't leave him because others think that you shouldn't...

then it's not love..

it's - Compromise...

If you love someone because you think that you cannot live with out his touch....

then it's not love..

it's - Lust...

If you love someone because you have been kissed by him...

then it's not love..

it's - Inferiority Complex...

If you love someone because you cannot leave him thinking that it would hurt his feelings..

then it's not love..

it's - Charity...

If you love someone because you share every thing with him...

then it's not love..

it's - Friendship...

but if you feel the pain of the other person more than him even when he is stable

and you cry for him..

that's - LOVE...

Unbelievable Peoples

The Man who can't get fat:

Mr Perry, 59, can eat whatever he likes - including unlimited pies, burgers and desserts - and never get fat. He cannot put on weight because of a condition called lipodystrophy that makes his body rapidly burn fat.

He used to be a chubby child, but at age 12 the fat dropped off "almost over night". He initially tried to eat more to gain weight, but it had no effect. Mr Perry, of Ilford in Essex, endured a decade of tests before the illness was diagnosed. It finally emerged that his body produces six times the normal level of insulin. Doctors have admitted that the condition would be a "slimmer's dream".

The Man Who Doesn't Feel Cold:

Dutchman Wim Hof, also known as the Iceman, is the man that swam under ice, and stood in bins filled with ice. He climbed the Mt. Blanc in shorts in the icy cold, harvested world records and always stands for new challenges.

Scientists can't really explain it, but the 48-year-old Dutchman is able to withstand, and even thrive, in temperatures that could be fatal to the average person.

The Boy Who Couldn't Sleep: stayed awake 24 hours a day for years.

Rhett Lamb is often cranky like any other 3-year-old toddler, but there's one thing that makes him completely different: he has a rare medical condition in which he can't sleep a wink.

Rhett is awake nearly 24 hours a day, and his condition has baffled his parents and doctors for years. They took clock shifts watching his every sleep-deprived mood to determine what ailed the young boy.

After a number of conflicting opinions, Shannon and David Lamb finally learned what was wrong with their child: Doctors diagnosed Rhett with an extremely rare condition called chiari malformation.

"The brain literally is squeezed into the spinal column. What happens is you get compression, squeezing, strangulating of the brain stem, which has all the vital functions that control sleep, speech, our cranial nerves, our circulatory system, even our breathing system," Savard said.

The Girl Who is Allergic to Water:

Teenager Ashleigh Morris can't go swimming, soak in a hot bath or enjoy a shower after a stressful day's work - she's allergic to water. Even sweating brings the 19-year-old out in a painful rash.

Ashleigh, from Melbourne, Australia, is allergic to water of any temperature, a condition she's lived with since she was 14. She suffers from an extremely rare skin disorder called Aquagenic Urticaria - so unusual that only a handful of cases are documented worldwide.

The Girl Who Eats Only Tic Tacs.

eet Natalie Cooper, a 17-year-old teenager who has a mystery illness that makes her sick every time she eats anything. Well, almost anything. She can eat one thing that doesn't make her sick: Tic tac mint!

For reasons that doctors are unable to explain, Tic tacs are the only thing she can stomach, meaning she has to get the rest of her sustenance from a specially formulated feed through a tube.

தொந்தியினால் ஏற்படும் பயன்கள்...............

தொந்தியினால் ஏற்படும் பயன்கள்:

1. கீழே குப்புற விழுந்தால் முகத்தில் அடிபட்டு மூக்கு உடையாமல் நம்மை காப்பாற்றுகிறது.

2. சமுதாயத்தில் ஒரு மரியாதையை ஏற்படுத்துகிறது. உதாரணமாக பெரிய பெரிய தொந்திகளை கொண்ட போலீசாரை கண்டால் நமக்கு மரியாதை கலந்த பயம் ஏற்படும்.

3. சிறந்த பொழுதுபோக்கு சாதனமாக பயன்படுகிறது. உதாரணமாக வேலையில்லாமல் சும்மா அமர்ந்திருக்கும் சமயத்தில் தொந்தியை மெதுவாக வருடிக்கொடுத்துக் கொண்டிருந்தால் நேரம் போவதே தெரியாது.

4. மல்லாக்க படுத்து இருந்தால் குழந்தைகள் சறுக்கு விளையாட்டு விளையாட மிகவும் பயன்படும்.. மேலும் நமது செல்லப் பிராணிகளான பூனைகள் மற்றும் நாய்க்குட்டிகள் படுத்து உறங்குவதற்கு மிகவும் விரும்புவது குஷன் வசதி கொண்ட தொந்திகளையே.

பாடலாசிரியர் வைரமுத்து கூட,

நீ காற்று நான் மரம்…

என்ன சொன்னாலும் தலையாட்டுவேன்

என்று எழுதிய பாடலில் கீழ்க்கண்டவாறு சில வரிகளை சேர்த்திருந்தால் நன்றாக இருந்திருக்கும்.

நீ பந்தி

நான் தொந்தி

என்ன போட்டாலும் உள்வாங்கிக்கொள்வேன்.

அரசியல்வாதிகளில் பலர் தொந்தியுடன் இருப்பதை நீங்கள் காணலாம். ஏனெனில் ஒருவரது தொந்தியின் அளவிற்கேற்ப அவரது புகழும் வளரும்.

தொந்தியார் குறைந்தால் தொண்டர் குறைவர்.

தொகுதி வளர்க்கும் உபாயம் அறிந்தே

தொந்தி வளர்த்தேன். தொகுதி வளர்த்தேனே..

என்பதே பல அரசியல்வாதிகளின் வேதவாக்கு.

தொந்தி ஏன் சதுரமாக அல்லது செவ்வகமாக இல்லாமல் உருண்டை வடிவத்தில் இருக்கிறது? என்ற வினா பலரது மனதில் எழும்.

தொந்தியானது தத்துவத்தின் சின்னமாகும்.

இந்த உலகமானது தொந்தியைப் போலவே உருண்டை வடிவமானது. இந்த வாழ்க்கையும் வட்ட வடிவமானது. இதை மனிதனுக்கு உணர்த்துவதற்காகவே இயற்கையானது மனிதனின் தொந்தியை உருண்டை வடிவத்தில் படைத்துள்ளது.

ஏழை ஒருநாள் பணக்காரன் ஆவான். பணக்காரன் ஒருநாள் ஏழை ஆவான். இதனை உணர்த்துவதற்காகவே தொந்தியானது அந்த நிலவைப் போல அடிக்கடி தேய்ந்து வளருகிறது.

இவ்வளவு சிறப்புகள் வாய்ந்த தொந்தியை நாம்,

போற்றி வளர்ப்போம்! கண்டதையும் போட்டு வளர்ப்போம்!!

ஜெய் தொந்தி !!!

Telephone to call GOD...!!

An American decided to write a book about famous churches around the World..

So he bought a plane ticket and took a trip to China.

On his first day he was inside a church taking photographs when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read "$10,000 per call".

The American, being intrigued, asked a priest who was strolling by what the telephone was used for.

The priest replied that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 you could talk to God.

The American thanked the priest and went along his way.

Next stop was in Japan. There, at a very large cathedral, he saw the same golden telephone with the same sign under it.

He wondered if this was the same kind of telephone he saw in China and he asked a nearby nun what its purpose was.

She told him that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 he could talk to God.

"O.K., thank you," said the American.

He then traveled to Pakistan , Srilanka , Russia , Germany and France ..

In every church he saw the same golden telephone with the same "$10,000 per call" sign under it.

The American, upon leaving Vermont decided to travel to up to India to see if Indians had the same phone.

He arrived in India , and again, in the first church he entered, there was the same golden telephone, but this time the sign under it read

"One Rupee per call."

The American was surprised so he asked the priest about the sign.

"Father, I've traveled all over World and I've seen this same golden telephone in many churches. I'm told that it is a direct line to heaven, but in the US price there were all was $10,000 per call.

Why is it so cheap here?"
