Anna University--Under Musharaff????

The most prestigious institution Anna university has taken disciplinary action for its affiliated institutions.

Ban on cellphones and few restrictions on dress codes.Moreover film based cultural events also restricted. It got a good response from the parents. But from the eyes of the teenagers hot stones were coming out(to break the Vice-Chancellor's head).

All over india, if we consider tamil people are having more faith on their traditional values. Though the western culture invaded into india, the people are following their traditional ethics. To retain that, this sudden (military)step was taken by the university.

At the beginning i thought it is good kind of action. But if u see the western countries, the clothes do not have enough guts to cover thier physical structure. Y should we go there, If u see Bangalore or Delhi the culture is entirely different. Y is there a partiality for the tamilnadu college students?
A 18 year old guy or gal is having the rights to choose the president for their country. Dont they have the rights to choose their own dressing style. Basically this situtation should change.

Some unsavory events might happened, like Delhi school MMS issue. Those are some exceptional cases. Due to these kind of cases, they should not go for this stupid kind of action. Not only this, film based cultural events are also banned. Then what will they do in the cultural events. Do they dance for the Thiyagaraja bhagavadhar songs? (Nadha...Nadha..Nanne..Vanden).
Life is full of Terror
In school, Preparation for the public examinations.
After marriage, all of u know, another terror in the form wife and kids.
Between the both college life is coming like an oasis or we can say it as a heaven.
Full of fun, games, love etc.
At least let them to enjoy in the middle of the both. Allow their hormones to breath for some time. What you people think of this? Post your comments.

(------Siruseri------>Silicon Valley?????------)

All of us know that chennai is going to become a next Silicon Valley after bangalore. After sholinganallur another IT park is going to be constructed at Siruseri which is nearby to the Kancheepuram district. The main thing is the plot values in those areas are increasing day by day at Siruseri.

Most of the IT companies are extending its operation away from the heart of the city. For example if we take siruseri it is 30Kms apart from the city. Now a days it became a real panic for the software employees. Eventhough they provide the transport facility the software people, they need to spend more than 2 hours for their transportation. So my point is like, if they start the companies nearby the cities it would help the employees to reduce their stress as well as the employees can spend more time with their families and friends.

Let us see the details about few facts and the upcoming IT companies in siruseri.State Industries Promotion Corporation of Tamil Nadu Limited (SIPCOT) is a State owned Financial and Development Institution incorporated under the company's Act 1956 in the year 1971-72. SIPCOT is instrumental in making Tamil Nadu one of the most industrially developed States of the country for the past 28 years and extended valuable services. SIPCOT is going to construct the IT park in siruseri.

Tata Consultancy Services has acquired 70-acres of land at a cost of about Rs.13 crore at the new IT Park at Siruseri near Chennai. The company announced plans to scale up its manpower here from 5,000 now, to 7,500 in the next two to three years, and to 10,000 in an year from that.
This is the largest project attracted by the Siruseri park of 1,000 Acres, which is being developed by the State-owned SIPCOT. Already, Xansa of UK had acquired 27.36 acres. Besides, Infosys had requested 30 acres for expanding its Chennai operations.

ELCOT is the operating agency for Electronic Hardware Technology Park (EHTP) scheme in Tamilnadu. ELCOT has 27 joint/Associate companies in areas of components, consumer electronics, communication equipment, power electronics systems, software development. infrastructure development etc. The emphasis in the years to come will be in the following areas:

# Create infrastructure for software development at Chennai, Coimbatore, Madurai and Trichy.
# Encourage Tamilnadu companies to globalise their operations to meet the demands of economy.
# Encourage global companies to relocate their operations in Tamilnadu and to start their new manufacturing divisions in Tamilnadu.# Encourage joint venture initiatives in leading edge technologies.
# Reversal of brain Drain.

Sizzling ONAM

Onam, the harvest festival of Kerala is celebrated during August/September every year. Keralites from all over the world travel to their native land to celebrate this festival as it is an occasion of pomp and merriment derived from gathering with family members and friends.
It is an unusual festival, in the sense that it reveres the memory of a local demon king, Mahabali, who was ousted from his kingdom by Lord Vishnu. So attached was the king to his country and subjects, that he asked for and was granted permisssion to return once a year. Onam is considered to be the day when the king returns to his kingdom.

Onam celebrations which last ten days begin with a colourful reception to King Mahabali. Mahabali is supposed to visit his kingdom on the 2nd day, which is the most important day of the festival.

Earthen mounds, which look somewhat like square pyramids, representing Mahabali and Vishnu are placed in the dung-plastered courtyards and beautifully decorated with flowers. The legend is believed to have happened at Trikkakara, a place 10km from Cochin on the Edapally- Pookattupadi road which according to mythology was the legendary capital of King Mahabali. The temple here, is the only temple in Kerala with the deity of 'Trikkakara Appan' or 'Vamanamurthy' who is Lord Vishnu himself in disguise
Apart from the mythological reason for Onam, it is a festival after the new harvest, when the coffers are abundant with grains and crops ready to sell and eat. The greenery throughout is magnificent. After working under the scorching sun of April and with flood waters of July and August the farmers heave a sigh of relief upon seeing the green lands.

Onam is celebrated by one and all irrespective of caste and creed. The well-to-do donate liberally to the poor as the feeling is that no one should go hungry during Onam. The festival spreads over a period of ten days starting from ‘Attham’ in Chingam, the first month in the Malayalam era.

Fine attire, sumptuous food and a pleasant ambiance are the hallmark of Onam. Houses are cleaned thoroughly and decorated aesthetically with flower petals of all colours and shades arranged in various designs. Children compete with each other in making ‘Pookkalam’ and the eldest in the family gives a prize for the best flower arrangement during the ten days. The eldest member also has to provide new clothes for all to wear on the special day of Onam.

Onam is never complete, as no occasion ever is, without a fabulous feast called Ona Sadya. Payasams, fried items and other dishes of South India are prepared besides Kerala’s specialties, ‘Aviyal’ and ‘Kalan’. Sitting together, and enjoying Ona Sadya served on plantain leaves amidst fun and frolic are pleasant memories Keralites cherish life long. Perhaps no other occasion can provides such camaraderie.
Sports, games and cultural programmes are inseparable with Onam festivities. While women folk engage in Kaikottikkali, Margamkali, Mohiniyattam and other classical and folk dances, men folk engage in Kolkali, Pulikali, Parichamuttukali and Akshraslokam. Processions with decorated elephants and floats depicting mythological scenes and architectural elegance accompanied by Panchavadyam, Nagaswaram, Thayambaka, etc. are an integral part of Onam celebrations.
Houses are cleaned and floral decorations put up to welcome the beloved ruler. A highlight of the celebrations is the famous Vallamkali-Snake Boat Race held at Arunmula in Central Travancore.
Onam is all that and more… Onam is all about happiness, prosperity and joy… Onam is all about the feelings… Something that goes above the barriers of caste , religion and wealth.

Child Labour

Sir..Pl sir..Oru packet vangikanga sir...
If anybody come across the shops behind Pondybazar you might have heared that voice. This is what happened while i was purchasing in that area. They are all one kind of child labours, begging us to get rid off their hunger. Let us try to help them in some way like making donation to the orphanages. We can rescue their devastating smile...

We are guilty of many errors and many faults,
But our worst crime is abandoning the children,
Neglecting the fountain of life.
Many of things we need can wait,
The child cannot wait.
Right now is the time his bones are being formed,
His blood is being made,
And his senses are being developed.
To him we cannot answer "Tomorrow",
His name is "Today"
