Guns n’ Roses might have gone platinum with a single about a fictional November rain, but Kathmandu residents on Monday were dealt an unrelenting helping of a December downpour that saw mercury plummet to around 4 degrees. Kathmanduities today could be seen trudging through the sludge on the streets while the number of vehicles plying the road was visibly reduced.
Tosay’s rain marks the beginning of a season change towards winter. The chief cause of the rain is a “Western Disturbance”.The weather itself will gradually improve in the coming days.
According to the Meteorology department, the afternoon’s temperature will hover around 16-17 degrees while it will gradually plummet in the coming days. According to weather.msn.com weather report,
Morning downpours have been reported in other parts of the country as well. The minimum temperature in Jiri today reached 0.5 below zero while that in Jumla was -2.0 degrees. Likewise, thermometers read 10.2, 8.2 and 12.6 in Pokhara, Nepalgunj and Biratnagar implying a higher temperature drop in the western region as compared to the east.

Long or short-term mobile phone use is not associated with increased risk of cancer, a major study has found.
Mobile phone antennas emit electromagnetic fields that can penetrate the human brain. But a Danish team found no evidence that this was linked to an increased risk of tumours in the head or neck as had been feared. The study, of more than 420,000 mobile phone users, appears in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
The researchers, from the Danish Institute of Cancer Epidemiology in

This is so cooooooooooool. I am loving it so much more. FLOCK has almost all the features a person may want and much more.
With FLOCK, i can integrate my del.icio.us bookmarks into My News feature. Then there’s this feature called web snippet. You can save links, text and pictures as snippets so that you can blog about it later
Snippets are especially handy for re-blogging bits of text from web pages. When you drag a snippet into a blog post, it is automatically formatted as a blockquote with proper citation.
