“2 Moons visible on 27 August ’06. Chance of a LIFETIME
Planet Mars will be the brightest in the night sky starting next August 2006.
It will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye.
This will cultimate on Aug. 27 when Mars comes within 34.65 M miles of Earth.
Be sure to watch the sky on Aug. 27 12:30 am. It will look like the Earth has 2 Moons. Don’t Miss it….. The next time Mars may come this close is in 2287. “
treat it as a hoax
since mars, moon are close to sun, so would be visible only early morning & also mars is in conjunction , so it would be much smaller than its usual size.
Mars came closest last in Oct/Nov 2005. It comes close every 2yrs, when earth overtakes in in orbit. Mars was closest in 60,000 yrs on 27th August 2003.

You and your wife will be happy in your life together
Now only if I had a ‘wife’!! miss elusive, where r you?!
I had my most memorable time in life, when flying past himalayas on return from Bhutan, Paro-Katmandu-Delhi flight of Druk Air . One can get the spectacular view by getting the right window seat – ie the left side ones when going delhi – paro & right side ones when returning paro – delhi. Only you have to be the one of the first to checkin to get the window seat! . I even went a step ahead to study the seat arrangement of airbus A319 (their new planes) to select the seat with best view ( got 22A onward & 10F on return)
Some pics of the prominent peaks visible.
Jomolhari (one of tallest peaks in bhutan) & never been climbed.
Kanchenjunga (2nd highest peak in sikkim)

Mt. Everest (need not say!)
Ranges on west of everest.
brazil are out, it seemed as if they didnt have much of a game plan! so probably its going to be Germany’s cup.
If going by the facts & numerology, brazil may win the next cup ( 2010 in south africa ). Facts being no europian nation ever won it outside their continent & brazil has won it five times in five different continents! so they can take the sixth title in sixth continent! & too bad they dont play in antartica
yesterday my delhi cell was stolen, while going in crowded bus, my first time experience of something stolen!
i only felt the loss twice once going down stairs in dark & getting up late realizing hadnt put wakeup alarm on!
