          7 aum Arivu - Film about India's advanced science

          Today Morning I watched  the movie 7 aum Arivu in theater. I got more interest to watch the movie from first scene onwards. 



          From the movie I got to know about Bodhidharma and his history. It's interesting to know Bodhidharma is from India and particularly from Kanchipuram, TamilNadu.And also I got to know Kung Fu was initially taught by him.



          In film director not only told about Bodhidharma and also about advanced Indian science.In one dialog he mentioned about Panjangam which gives accurate information of full moon day and Lunar phase(பௌர்ணமி,அம்மாவாசை). We can see still the information provided in Panjangam are accurate but the forecasts calculated modern days are some times not happening.

          As per my understanding the director tries to reveal the India's advanced science either through Bhodhidharma's Martial Arts or Medicine techniques.Moreover he expressed his anger on our poor knowledge about India's history. In last scene he told about each and every activities of Indian has a scientific reason. We should aware of it,learn it as a science and follow it in our life. 

          By this film I came to know the importance of knowing history. India's history is not only the history, India's history is Science.

          My first travel on Namma Metro


          After a long wait, Bangalore Metro rail opened for passengers from last Thursday October 20th 2011. The current reach one of phase one covers the stations from Mahatma Gandhi Road to Byappanahalli.

          Yesterday I traveled in Namma Metro from Byappanahalli to Mahatma Gandhi Road with my friends.It was a pleasant day for all of us, I experienced few new things in this travel,

          Tickets as tokens

          There are ticket offices with Ticket office machines in the railway stations to provide tickets. Surprisingly tickets are not printed paper rather tickets are provided as tokens.

          Automatic Gates

          Passenger has to flash the token in the automatic Gates. This gates allows a passenger only if the token is valid. 

          Travel Charge

          The current plan from Mahatma Gandhi Road to Byappanahalli covers with minimum charge of 10 Rupees to maximum charge of 15 Rupees.

          User friendly Elevators

          I felt the elevators at the railway station are more user friendly by giving wide space when it starts and ends at up and down which helps the users who are new to elevators.

          Air-conditioned

          All the coaches in the Metro rail are fully air-conditioned. This made me to feel a peaceful travel.

          Automated Doors:

          Automated doors helps users to feel comfortable. The automated doors are opened automatically at each station and closed when train starts from the station.

          Display screens

          There are lot of display screens in all the coaches, they displays the timing and station information which helps passengers to know about the current station and upcoming station information. Apart from showing train information these display screens plays information about important places near Bangalore and important places in Karnataka. This made my travel as more informative one.

          Token collecting Boxes

          There are boxes in the destination station in where the passengers has to drop their tokens provided as tickets for the travel. These tokens are reused by metro rail corporation. It reduces the cost.


          I personally feel if metro rails are implemented in all the cities in India, it will be more peaceful for the employees who are traveling with in the city.This will help each and every  person to do their work more peacefully. This will make more efficient India.By serving people Namma Metro plays an important role to create a developed India.

          கொஞ்சம் அரட்டை கொஞ்சம் சேட்டை

          எங்கள் வீட்டில் இரவு 9 மணிக்கு சேட்டை ஆரம்பித்து விடும் என்று எனது தந்தை சொன்னார் தொலைபேசியில்.

          நானும் சேட்டையை பார்க்க ஆவலுடன் கடந்த வாரம் என் வீட்டுக்கு சென்றேன். அரட்டையுடன் கலந்து வந்த சேட்டையை ரசித்தேன்.

          கொஞ்சம் அரட்டையும் கொஞ்சம் சேட்டையும் - இது மக்கள் தொலைக்காட்சியின் வேடிக்கை நிகழ்ச்சி.வேடிக்கையோடு இதில் கேட்கப்படும் கேள்விகள் சிந்திக்கவும் வைக்கின்றன.



          எங்கள் வீட்டில் அனைவரும் பார்க்கும் ஒரு தரமான நிகழ்ச்சி.

          Gmail asked me to solve mathematical problems



          Few months back I composed mail using Gmail at midnight 11.00 PM. When I clicked Send button, 
          Gmail asked me few simple mathematical problems. I am more interested to solve mathematical problems.I had just answered correctly. My mail had been sent. 

          I tried second time with wrong answers, but Gmail asked me few other similar problems. Gmail allows the composed mail to be sent after giving correct answers.

          When I send mail to the same friend next day morning, Gmail didn’t ask me the same questions. I had a 
          question in my mind “Why Gmail is asking me mathematical problems only at night time?”
          I never made effort to know answer for this question rather I assumed it’s for security reason.

          Again Last week I used Gmail at late night. Gmail prompted the same kind of mathematical problems when I clicked send button. This time I want to go beyond my thinking and eager to know the answer for my long-lasting question. I got to know this is a Gmail Lab feature. This feature name is,

          Mail Goggles:

          In default this feature will be shown only on weekend “Friday” and “Saturday” from 10:00 PM to 4:00 AM.
          We can change the day and time of this feature in ‘General’ tab in Settings.

          Default 'Reply to all':

          In default Gmail’s reply button replies only to the sender of the mail. If you want to send reply to all the recipients’ mail ids including those presented in CC. You can choose this feature.


          Undo Send:

          This is an interesting feature. I feel most of us need this feature. Within a few second after we pressed send button we think we made a mistake. But our mail would have gone. If we enable this feature Gmail will prompt us an option to do undo. This feature is disabled in default. We need to enable this feature in Gmail Labs.


          Custom Keyboard shortcuts:

          By enabling this feature, we can create our own shortcut for Gmail. After enabling this feature we can create shortcuts in “Mail Settings” --> “Keyboard Shortcuts” link.







          To enjoy more Gmail Lab features Click the Settings Icon in the top right corner of the Gmail and Click Labs menu.

          Do you know who are contesting in your constituency in this election?


          Assembly elections are coming. How many of us know who are the candidates contesting in our constituency other than two or three main candidates?

          This is the second time I am going to cast my vote. Previously when I voted in Lok sabha elections,I got to know list of candidates who are contesting in my constituency only on the election day after going to Polling station.One pathetic news is, before knowing the full list of candidates, I have chosen whom to vote from the list of known candidates.

          So this time I planned to know about the list of candidates before election days.Now a days most of the information available in internet.So I started browsing. I got the list from   http://www.elections.tn.gov.in/Form7A2011.htm .

          The list is categorized by Districts.I clicked the link for my district,I got the list of candidates for all constituencies from my district. I chosen to see my constituency from the opened PDF.

          Moreover I got to know Affidavits filled by each candidates by clicking the link, Affidavits filled by Candidates. This includes income and other details of each candiates.

          Don't you know whether your name is there in electoral list or not? You can verify that too by choosing your district and constituency by clicking this link Verify your name in Electoral list.



          I confirmed my name is in the electoral role. [ Image : This is how my name listed in electoral role ]

          Moreover, I have the list of candidates for my constituency in my hand. Now I have to decide to whom can I vote? I feel casting vote is important.Yes, I can decide my leader by casting my vote.


          My suggestion to each and every one of us is, please consider the election day as a your family function day and plan your schedule to cast your vote. Your single vote can make a huge difference to our nation.

          Why to follow any one in Twitter?

                Now a days if I visit any website, there is a button saying "Follow us in twitter". I had a question "Why I should follow them in twitter?" Like some of my friends, I too felt its waste of time following any one or any product in twitter.

                I had an another question,"Am I against twitter?". I am not against twitter or any one following twitter.Then why should I think,using of twitter is waste of time?

                I decided to follow few products which I am interested and related to my daily life in Twitter.My daily life is dependent on "Microsoft Windows", a single product which I am using most of the time in my daily life.

                I started following Microsoft,Windows and Bill gates. With in a minute I got lot of updates from them. Latest updates I came to know from Microsoft twitter pages are "Microsoft suggesting to stop using Internet Explorer 6", "IE 9 Set to release" which are useful information for me.

                As per my understanding goes, If we start using twitter effectively by following what is related to us, "Twitter is a single place where we get plenty of information about what we like and what we need".

            You can follow me in twitter here.
