Makes even the moonlight a pale shadow compared to you

Teri nazron ne dil ka kiya jo hashar asar yeh huwa
Your eyes created such a mess in my heart that

Ab in mein hi doob ke ho jaoon paar yehi hai dua
Now my prayer is that I want is to drown and come to shore in your eyes

Take me somewhere without telling me
jahan tu muskuraye meri manzil wahin
Where you smile, thats where my destination is

vaarayo vaarayo tamil lyrics from aadhavan

Vaarayo song sung my unni krishnan and chinmaye is
pleasant to hear thought it looks repetitive like many
of the previous harris melody numbers.This song could slowly
challenge the pick song of this album hasile fisile
I have penned down the lyrics below

வாராயோ வாராயோ காதல் கொள்ள
பூவோட பேசாத காற்று இல்ல
ஏன் இந்த காதலோ நேற்று இல்ல
நீயே சொல் மனமே

வாராயோ வாராயோ மோனலிசா
பேசாமல் பேசுதே கண்கள் லேசா
நாள் தோறும் நான் உந்தன் காதல் தாசா
என்னோடு வா தினமே
என்னோடு வா தினமே

இங்கே இங்கே ஒரு மர்லின் மன்றோ நான் தான்
உன் கய்யின் காம்பில் பூ நான்
நாம் காதல் யாவும் தேன் தான்

பூவே பூவே நீ போதை கொள்ளும் பாடம்
மனம் காற்றை போல ஓடும்
உன்னை காதல் கண்கள் தேடும்

ஆஹ் லை லை லை லை காதல் லீலை
செய் செய் செய் செய் காலை மாலை

உன் சிலை அழகை விழிகளால் நான் வியந்தேன்
இவனுடன் சேர்ந்ததும் சின்றெல்ல

வாராயோ வாராயோ காதல் கொள்ள
பூவோட பேசாத காற்று இல்ல
ஏன் இந்த காதலோ நேற்று இல்ல நீயே சொல் மனமே

நீயே நீயே அந்த ஜுலிஎட் இன் சாயல்
உன் தேகம் எந்தன் கூடல் இனி தேவை இல்லை ஊடல்

தீயே நீயே நான் தித்திக்கின்ற தீயே எனை முத்தமிடுவாயே
இதழ் முத்துக்குளிப்பாயே

நீ நீ நீ நீ மை பேர் லேடி
வா வா வா என் காதல் ஜோதி
நான் முதல் முதலாய் எழுதிய காதல் இசை
அதற்கொரு ஆதார சுருதி நீ

வாராயோ வாராயோ மோனலிசா
பேசாமல் பேசுதே கண்கள் லேசா
நாள் தோறும் நான் உந்தன் காதல் தாசா

என்னோடு வா தினமே
என்னோடு வா தினமே
என்னோடு வா தினமே

Counter strike - Show no mercy Kill or Die

Counter-Strike is an multiplayer first-person shooter
computer game. Created by the Valve Corporation, the game
has become a popular game with many clans and communities.
This game is very addictive particularly when u play
wit ur friends across the LAN.while i was in college i
used to play this continuously.The thing wid CS is that
it gives u a false feeling that u can control it but in
reality u cant.You would have decided to play CS for 5
or 10 mins and u end up playing it for hours

Some of the new habits that u would come across once u
start playing CS is

1.After returning from college (or any damn place), the
first thing you do after entering is turn on your pc.
You (always staring at your pc) pull off your sandals,
change your clothes n whatever till... till the pc
starts and as soon as it starts, you abandon everything
and open cs.
2.Keep on thinking new strategies while sitting in
classes/offices
3.u also start using cs slangs in daily life :D
4.Usually u would start forgetting food/sleep
5.Your completely cut off from the real world

Inspite of this i still keep playing CS coz
1. I love this game
2. Its kind of relaxer for me and refreshes my mind
3. I can release my frustration without harming any1

My favourite gun is Maverick while playing as a CT
(counter terrorist)(Ofcourse quiet popular with a lot of
ct players) and CV 47 while playing as a terrorists.

Nanbanai partha song lyric from Ninaikthaley inikum

Ninaithaley inikum is a remake of Malayalam movie Classmates.
The film stars Prithviraj, Sakthi, Priyamani,Karthik, and
Vishnupriyan in lead roles.Vijay Antony has composed the
music.The songs in this movies are good with correct mix
of soulful melodies and rocking koothu numbers.Out of that
the song 'Nanbanai partha' specially dedicated to friends
has sprinkles of guitar and some good humming in the
background.lyrics on ‘Friendship’ are heart-touching.I
have penned down the lyrics below.

Would Ancelotti's Diamond midfiled work for Chelsea ?

Chelsea are moving away from the orthodox 4-3-3 that was used
by Jose and later inherited by Grant and Scolari. A bold
decision but a system re haul was very much on the cards.
There are critiques of the diamond and then there are the
ardent believers.

Chelsea line up this season would be something like this

- - - - - - - - - - - - - back V - - - - - - - - - - - -

- - - - - - - - - - - mikel/deco - - - - - - - - - - -

- - - - essien/joey - - - - - - ----malouda/yuri - - -

- - - - - - - - - - - frank/joey - - - - - - - - - - - -

- - - - - - drogba - - - - - - - - - - anelka - - - -

One major positive this formation offers us is the fact
that it allows Ancelotti to play both Drogba and Anelka
upfront in the natural positons. Mid-field is one of our
major strength's. This formation will allow us to use
that strength to a great extent.

This formation looks great on paper, But one of the major
concerns will again be width. We will have to rely on the
full-backs to provide us width again.
When the player who plays behind the strikers (lampard in
our case) gets marked tightly , centre play becomes very
difficult. In this case you have to bank on your wide
players (those on either side of diamond) to bail you
out.you need to have great quality in that department.
It never works against big sides or organised defences
and we end up looking very very narrow.

But Ancelotti has experienced success at AC Milan with this
diamond formation in the midfield.But then AC Milan had two
play-makers Kaka and Pirlo in his midfield which Chelsea lacks.

Lets wait n see how it works out for Chelsea.

EPL season 2009-2010

It only seems a moment ago that the 2008-09 season came to a
close, but the new EPl season is just abt three days to start.
We had a slight trailor to this last weekend itself when
chelsea played with Manchester untied for the community
shield.Chelsea won the game in the penalties after the
scores were level at 2-2.the controversies were fair and
square in the game.

Champions Manchester United (recent slow starters in the
league) will face off against newly promoted Birmingham
at Old Trafford on opening day. Chelsea play with Hull
at StamfordBridge.Spurs against liverpool and arsenal
take on Everton on the opening day.

For a more detailed fixture list please click the below link.
Premier league fixtures list

The new season looks very promising.Manchester city investing
millions of money to get in players like Tevez,Adebayor,
santa cruz,Barry,Kolo toure.I believe there would be stiff
competition for the Top 4 finish.The Big 4 would face
severe competition from Manchester city,Everton,AstonVilla
and the spurs.

Need to wait n see whether losing Ronaldo and Tevez would
cost united.Chelsea have more or less the same team barring
two new additions(Yuri zhirkov and Sturridge).The major
change in chelsea in manager Ancelloti.

Pokkisham

Pokkisham, starring Cheran and Padmapriya in lead roles, talks
about a young couple's romance and deals with love story in the
form of letters.It’s a simple love story set in the 1970s, when
there were no cell phones, SMSs or emails and Love blossoms and
is nurtured through letters.‘Pokkisham’ is finally going to
release 15th August.I believe Pokkisham will refresh all the
love-related precious memories in all of us.After a sequence
of movies with rural background/masala genres pokkisham
would be a fresh relief.

Sabesh-Murali duo have composed music for Pokkisham.This album is
full of melody songs.
The song ‘Varum Vazhi Engum’ sung by Ranjani is awesome.The
flow of emotions that she conveys through her voice really
rolls over the picture in front of our eyes.
Moondru naal aagume soft melody by karthik, with its free
flowing verse and lovely sax phrases is superb.
'Nila Nee Vaanam’ is beautiful, especially the parts by
Chinmayi - wonderfully sung!
I liked the above three songs.The location and the
picturisation of the songs were also done superbly.

You can have a look at the songs over the following youtube link.
1.Varum Vazhi:
2.Nila Nee vanam:
3.Moondru naal:

For the Past 3 year kadantha moonu varushangala ...

would forever be grateful to all my friends who have taught
me everything.

Wish me all guys :)

Maalai Neram Mazhai thoorum .....

Recently i got addicted to this song Malai Neram Song from
Ayirathil oruvan.Its been running non stop in my media-player
for the last few days.This romantic melody is sung by Andrea
and G. V. Prakash.(Andrea’s voice has the extra magical feel
in it).Mild soothing beats and well-organized rhythms make
this song more addictive(esp the starting guitar chords)
and might turn out to be the song of this year The lyrics
of the songs are penned down below.Please do hear it when

The world saw the disappearance of an A330 Air Frane during a trans Atlantic flight between Rio to Paris. Very ironic that a day before I got a mail of the photos taken by a passenger on a flight mins after a mid air collision, and mins before the crash of the said aircraft

Two shots taken inside the plane before it crashed. Unbelievable! Photos taken inside the aircraft that was involved in a mid air collision and crashed.....

It had a mid air collision with the Embraer Legacy while cruising at 35,000 feet over South America. The Embraer Legacy, though seriously damaged with the winglet ripped off, managed to make a landing at a nearby airstrip in the midst of the Amazon jungle. The crew and passengers of the Embraer Legacy had no idea what they had hit. Aircraft
however crashed, killing all crew and passengers on board.


The two photos attached were apparently taken by one of the passengers, just after the collision and before the aircraft crashed. The photos were retrieved from the camera's memory stick. You will never get to see photos like this. In the first photo, there is a gaping hole in the fuselage through which you can see the tailplane and vertical fin of the aircraft. In the second photo, one of the passengers is being sucked out of the gaping hole.



These photos were found in a digital Casio Z750, amidst the remains in Serra do Cachimbo. Although the camera was destroyed, the Memory Stick was recovered. Investigating the serial number of the camera, the owner was identified as Paulo G. Muller, an actor of a theatre for children known in the outskirts of Porto Alegre. It can be imagined that he was standing during the impact with the Embraer Legacy and during the turbulence, he managed to take these photos, just seconds after the tail loss the aircraft plunged. So the camera was found near the cockpit. The structural stress probably ripped the engines away, diminishing the falling speed, protecting the electronic equipment but not unfortunately the victims. Paulo Muller leaves behind two daughters, Bruna and Beatriz.

Deception Point Novel review

Deception Point," Dan Brown's novel, is about the political
consequences of a NASA claim to have discovered a historic
meteorite embedded in ice for more than three centuries.It
has so many twists and turns, is packed with fast moving plots,
visual descriptions and ofcourse tidbits of romance.Brown's
description about the people, locations, machineries etc are
just perfect.This is the fourth Dan brown novel am reading
after DaVinci code,A&D and Digital Fortress

Deception Point is a story of a senator’s daughter who gets
trapped in a complete mess which also includes the most
powerful men in the world "the President of the US", "Head
of the NASA","The head of NRO".The story revolves around
the political individuals driven by a unstoppable ambition
to grab the Presidential seat of government.

It proceeds with the same exciting, stunning fact-filled
writing like all other Dan brown's.It is a page-turner,
fast-moving and entertaining.Now, the real fun is trying
to figure out who is the prey and who is the mastermind!
Actually I didn’t get it right and I am sure even you
wont get it either. Trust me, it is an absolute cracker.
One more advantage of this book is there are not too
many parallel plots which keeps u stuck to the main plot.
Though in this novel i found it hard to believe that the
President of only super power country, who is aware of
all the things happening around the world does not know
what happens under his nose.

The main plot deals with power, authority, and obviously
well-developed deception. It is a gripping thriller and
adrenalin pumping read that I recommend you.

LTTE Srilankan Issue as i see

Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam as they are popularly called
as LTTE founded by Velupillai Prabhakar, is a tamil rebels
organisation that was mainly started coz of the discrimination
of sinhalese dominated srilankan government against minority
tamil community.when the LTTE became influential militarily,
they developed greed assuming that they have established Tamil
Eelam in the North and East of Sri Lanka.After acheiving this
they shud have challenged Sri Lankan government thru politics
too . But they never showed interest in political front nd
they were mislead by their Single dominant leader.His arrogance
has cost lives of lakhs of people. Of course India too has to
share the blame by supporting them initially.We paid the price
by loosing Rajiv.This civil war btwn sinhalese govn and ltte
is goin on for the last 30 years.

Recently there is an intense war goin with the srilankan govt
taking a vow to completely eliminate LTTE from their soil.
Numerous human lifes has gone down.

Srilankan Governtments Point of view:

War is something which LTTE forced the Sri Lankan government
to take that extreme step and was unavoidable.They point out
that the LTTE has assassinated more Tamil leaders than the
SriLankan army has, leaders such as Amrithalingam, Yogeswaran,
Neelam Tiruchelvam, and even militants such as Sri Sabaratnam.
Srilankan Govt says it is the failure of the Tamil leadership
to allow the likes of Prabhakaran to get away with murder and
mayhem.LTTE forcibly kept civilians and innocent in the war
area using them as humanshields forcibly and shoot them if
they tried to escape.LTTE deliberately placed its heavy weaponry
close to civilian installations and fired at government forces.
Young boys and girls, children of poor parents are forcibly
recruited by the LTTE and sent to the battle front without much
trainings.The LTTE suicide bombers have been killing a lot of
innocent people almost on a regular basis.

LTTE's point of view:

LTTE believes sternly that the Sri Lankan government will only
be happy when every last Tamilian have been killed by the force of
violence.LTTE accuses the Sri Lankan government unilaterally
withdrew from the Norwegian-brokered ceasefire a year go which
provoked the current war.The lives of hundreds of hostages
(including children) were sacrificed in the process of killing the
so called terrorists.LTTE complain the innocent people are being
bombarded with heavy artillery by government forces,coz of
which there are huge casualties and the most of these traumatised
people have been jailed in camps where they are separated from
loved ones, facilities are minimal, and allegations that women
have been raped and killed

Indian Governments stand:

Indian govt says The Sri Lankan Tamil Issue is an internal issue
of Sri Lanka.But the TN politicians are playing a cheap voting
games to try to earn popularity in TN and the latest is fasting
to death. But on the real no steps are been taken and they dont
fucking care abt the people dying there and all they want is
cheap publicity.


The Harsh Truth :

But the real truth that no one can deny is thousands of
innocent people are being killed every day in the murderous
conflict between LTTE and Sri Lnakan government.Both Srilankan
govt and LTTE are killer forces that do not give a damn to
death of innocents. What sin the srilankan people especially
the tamilians there have committed to experience this agony
all these years,and how long do they need to go thru this?If
they are in the war zone they get bombarded by the army. If
they are wounded and go to hospital they get bombed.If they
somehow manage to escape they would end up in the Nazi like
detention camps. Civilians are suffering injuries and dying
because both the Tigers and the government troops are violating
international humanitarian law

The war’s sheer brutality has created new realities.Tamils all
over the world are boiling in anger.they seem to seem to surpass
the Muslim anger over the dragging middle-east wars.

I also feel that this war would not be the end of the Tamil
struggle for independence.Clearly, it marks the beginning of
the Tamil Era which is in the making, and the signs are that
the next chapter is going to be even more destructive than the
LTTE.If the Srilankan Governments target was to save the
country from splitting into two, this war has sown seeds to
bring the exact opposite result.

I personally feel that by supporting the LTTE’s cause we don’t
do anything for ourselves not do we do anything for the misplaced
Tamils.They still live in refugee camps and are no better than
our own poor whereas the top LTTE leaders are still living a
cosy life somewhere in canada or else where.

Am left out being helpless all i can do is pray to the almighty.
Hope he brings a positive change sooner

Missing ur friends Just hear it

Mansellam unnidam koduthen, this song is from the movie Kulir
sung by SIMBU.Music is composed by Bobo Sashi.This song is
melodic and blended with some nice Rap.

I listened to this song after my friend suggested it.I loved
it instantly.This song is about friends and the pain of missing
them in life.
the lyrics of the song goes as so


Hey yo this song is dedicated to everyone, who miss their friend,
this is how it feels...

மனசெல்லாம் உன்னிடம் கொடுத்தேன் என்ன உயிர் தோழா
பழசெல்லாம் நினைவுக்கு வருதே நேரில் வாடா
வான் என்று உன்னை நினைத்தேன் வானவில்லாய் மறைந்தாயே
திருக்குறளாய் வந்து என் வாழ்வில் இரு வரியில் முடிந்தாயே

கண் மூடினால் இருள் ஏது நீயே தெரிகிறாய்
நான் பேசினால் மொழியாக தானே வருகிறாய்

its been while last since we met
cant forget what happened until the last breath
i regret my actions what we did the last thing
hey no joke man my heart comes fresh

எனக்காக பிறந்தாய் பின் ஏனோ பிரிந்தாய்
உன்னாலே நினைவுகளாலே மோதி விடுகின்றதே
உயிராய் நீ இருந்தாய் கனவிலும் தெரிந்தாய்
நண்பா உன் நினைவால் நடைபிணம் ஆகிறேன்

so coming back....

கரை மோதும் அலைகளை போல நினைவுகள் மோதிடுதே
ஊதுகின்ற சிகரெட் துண்டுகள் கதைகள் சொல்லிடுதே
தண்ணீரில் குமிழியை வந்தவன் போனானே
விளையாடும் மைதானங்கள் மயானம் ஆகிடுதே
இங்கு எனக்கென்று ஏதும் இல்லையே
என் பள்ளியே முற்று புள்ளியே
இனி முழுவதும் நான் அழுவதும் உன்னை நினைத்தே தோழா

கண் மூடினால்...(2)

i'm walking down.........so all coming back
dont ever forget me man thats all i ask
you gotta control my thoughts and emotion
wats the real thoughts but it back in motion


நீ எங்கு போனாலும் உன் நினைவாய் அலைகிறேன்
என் நண்பனே உனக்காக கிடக்கிறேன் என் நண்பனே
கரைகிறேன் உன் நினைவிலே
உன்னை இழக்கிறேன் என் நண்பனே


i dont know, the word friend had an END.

Thousand Splendid Suns Book review

Thousand Splendid Suns is second Novel for Khaled Hosseini after
Kite Runner.“The Kite Runner” focused on fathers and sons, and
friendships between men, his latest novel, “A Thousand Splendid
Suns,” focuses on mothers and daughters, and friendships
between women.Like Kite Runner this novel also deals with diff
generations of Afghanistan right from its once-rich past which starts
disintegrating rapidly as the rule of power moves from the Soviets
to the Mujahideen, the Taliban and finally the US-backed government
with Hamid Karzai.

Thousand Splendid suns is the story of two strong women, Mariam
and Laila,born about nineteen years apart, and the strange love
they come to share after being thrown together under complicated circumstances.Mariam,uneducated illegitimate girl coming from a
rural Herat and Laila city born educated girl from Kabul both
meet each other and their stories converge when they married
Rasheed at their respective teenage.the transition in the
relationship between Mariam and Laila was pictured superbly.Its
about love, hope, the unexpected inner strength and bonding
between two women who, though not related byblood, are intimately
related by circumstances.

I loved these lines in the book

“Like a compass needle that always points north, a man’s accusing finger always finds a woman. You remember that Mariam jo.”
(This would be said by Nana Mariam's mother to her)

"she was leaving the world as a woman who had loved and been loved back. She was leaving it as a friend, a companion, a guardian. A mother. A person of consequence at last."
This is about Mariam before she is beaten to death

On the whole i felt it is an Ok sort of book,Can read it once.This
story is not written with such deliberate detail as The Kite Runner.
I would recommend the book to anyone who wants to read a
touching novel and is willing to be moved to cry :).

Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerTimeoutException .Net error work around

Last week I had a problem when I tried to use advance smart search panel in my

code. I got this error: "Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerTimeoutException.

The server request timed out" from the Ajax Extension framework. Its occurred

because the smart search took a little longer time (something like 2 minutes) and

the Ajax Extension Callback framework had a timeout.

How to solve this problem?
To solve this problem we can increase the timeout. You can change the timeout

time by adding a new property to the script manager control. This property is

called AsyncPostBackTimeOut and it can help us to define the number of

seconds before the request will throw a request timeout exception*.

For example if you want that the timeout will take maximum 10 minutes your

code should be look like this:

<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server"

AsyncPostBackTimeOut="600" >

asp:ScriptManager>

* The default value of the AsyncPostBackTimeOut property is 90 seconds.

Digital Fortress - Dan Brown Book Review

Digital fortressis cyber-thriller novel by Dan brown.This is the 3rd
novel of Dan Brown am reading after "Da vinci Code" and "Angels
and Demons"."Digital Fortress" doesn't look to have the edge or
the constant action found in "The DaVinci Code" or even "Angels
& Demons." But overall its a good fast paced adventurous novel.

This thriller revolves around the quest for an unbreakable encryption
algorithm's passkey and the extent to which people would go to in
order to acquire it.This unbreakable encryption algorithm called as
Digital Fortress was written by ex-NSA cryptographer Ensei Tankado
who had blackmailed to make it available for public use if the NSA
didn't make TRANSLTR's(incredible code-breaking machine which
can even turn the best computer encryption software useless)
existence known to the general public.The plot takes a twist when
Ensei the only person who knew the Pass-key to break digital
fortress died .

Only the end of the novel let me down.It was like watching some
Hollywood action movie's climax, it was too artificial.

I found the book fast-paced and engaging.If you like cyber-thrillers
I highly recommend you pick this book up and read it.

Angaadi Theru Aval Apdi Ondrum Song Lyrics

Started hearing this new album Angaadi Theru by GV.Prakash/VJ Antony.
The movie is directed by Vasantha Balan of Veyyil fame.Out of this album
this one song Aval Appadi Ondrum impressed me a lot.Lyrics was penned
by Na. Muthukumar Song opens with a beautiful Keyboard and Flute music.
That sets the tone for this soothing song.It has cheesy lyrics with some
classical tune and backgrounds which are very different and at the same
time its very simple.I am sure this song is sure to make adolescent men go
crazy.

The R word is ruling(ruining) everywhere(everyone)

R word -- Recession. This word is been uttered almost everywhere.
Whatever happens around u am sure at the end of day it will be hookep
up to this word.

These are some of the ways the recession has affected me I keep hearing
from my company how they're cutting back on payments, I'm hearing rumors
of people getting cut, etc. It's already affected me pay wise(Both hike and
bonus has been freezed till Mar-10) and I'm just hoping that I won't get cut
all together. For now, I still have my job and I'm grateful.

I wanted to go back to B school but I am going to have to put that off for a
little longer. Most of my savings which i had invested in sharemarkets have
become a petty amount.Inspite of this i still invested more this year
considering market would recover and it would nullify my previous years
losses.(FACT everytime i started investing in the markets considering it
has reached its bottom, it managed to go even less & hope its not the
same this time around.)

The only positive thing i noticed coz of recession is People eat more
healthy foods in recession, drive less either as an economy measure
or because they are no longer commuting to their jobs.

What did this Recession teach us ?

The "ant principle" i.e If we worked hard and right during the "great" days,
we should have stored our goods for the winter (hard times). If we fail to
plan, we plan to fail. I would think that every generation goes through a
financial crisis. The key of living through this is planning and preparing for
them.

When i was writing this post i got a joke based on this recession.
Though its funny it could happen to u. It can happen!*

XYZ Office * A fire alarm rang at 6 PM when almost all shift employees
are in office(approx 5000). As usual entire office was evacuated within 3
mins & every employee gathered outside office. 10 mins passed............
5 more mins passed. Security Officer - Announcement started, "Dear
Employees - With melting heart I am making this announcement that for
many of you it will be a last evacuation drill, as we are laying off almost 80%
employee. While moving in whoever's ID card won't work are laid off & all
their belongings will be couriered to them tomorrow. We followed this
approach as we don't want to fill email box size with layoff mail in thousands
& also to avoid any fight inside office". Hope you have Nice career ahead.
Please move in & try your luck.

I guess in the last 2 - 3 weeks the global economy shows sign of recovery.
Whether its a complete recovery or just a spike in the downward moving
economy lets wait n c.

"Next" novel Review

I just completed Michael Crichton's novel, NEXT, which deals
with the business behind genetic engineering.Next has plenty
of inputs on the moral and financial implications of human
genetic engineering, but none of them add up to a meaningfull
and involving story. The chapters are short , some moments
even thrilling, but it’s hard to predict where the story is going.


The main plot of the story revolves around the patenting of
genes, and how that is at contraty with regular patent law.
How can you patent something that already exists in nature?
This practice leads to companies controlling entire lines of
research as they will sue if anyone attempts to touch their
genetic "property rights".

The narrative is difficult considering that Next almost never
stops bringing new characters, till the end of the novel
barring last few chapters.At some point of the plot there
were two kids with the same name and it confused me
pretty much whom he is referring to.There is no main
character which makes the plot less interesting. The very
short chapters have you moving from story to story
without making much advancements on each, and some
story lines aren't re-visited for quite a while, leading to
more than a few 'who is this character again?' moments
makes it very irritating . If you're going to read it, it's
best to do so in as much less sittings as possible.

The climax of the story, if you can call it that, is when a
few of the characters come together as the "chase" plot
is over. But after it was all over, I was left with a feeling
of "What the F***, that's it?".

The positive aspect with this novel is that its a well
researched one and very informative as with all
Michael Crichton novels. The internal mechanisms
of the pharmaceutical,biotech,legal, marketing and
genetic labs are explored in great detail.

Overall, i would rate this novel as one of Crichton's worst
works.

VodaFone IPL Ads - Zoo Zoo

The new vodafone ads thats being telecasted during IPL matches
are pretty awesome.I liked them all, especially the beauty tips AD,
that kid comes shouting 3 times superbly. Really Innovative to say.

I got a mail regarding these Ads.Thought i will share across with
u guys

Some info abt these characters. They aren’t animated characters.
They are human beings who were made to wear body suits. “The
design of the characters is such that one gets fooled into thinking
it is animation,” shrugs Rao, which was indeed the very illusion
that had to be created.“In a sense, it is ‘live’ animation!” he quips,
referring to the fact that it was all shot live. Prakash Varma, ad
filmmaker,Nirvana Films, has directed the commercials, and
reveals that the Zoozoos were a big challenge to create. The
practical aspects of how they will move, talk, gesticulate and
emote were very important. Essentially, costume design and
artwork were crucial elements.

“It took me three weeks of pre-production to understand how
it will work,” says Varma. There were two fabrics that were
considered for the body suits, and one was rejected for it had
too many wrinkles and was shiny. The wrinkles would have
shown when the characters moved, thereby shattering the
illusion of animation. “So we chose the more practical, thicker
fabric,” Varma explains.The production team divided the
outfit into two parts: the body and the head. The body part
of the outfit was stuffed with foam in some places, while the
head was attached separately. To make it look bigger than a
human head, a harder material called Perspex was used,
which in turn was stuffed with foam (with scope for
ventilation).

If one wishes to understand the size of this head, here’s a fact:
a human head would typically reach up to the mouth level of
this giant Zoozoo head. “We kept the hands and legs thin,
which is why we cast women – and occasionally children –
wearing the costumes,” says Varma. The thin limbs, contrasted
with big bellies and a bulbous head, all add to the illusion that
these creatures are ‘smaller’ than humans. Sets were created
to suit the size of the Zoozoos.

Cinematically, this ‘size’ was a trick: the creatures look smaller
than they actually are on screen, to portray a different world of
sorts. For this, the speed of shooting was altered: Nirvana shot
it in a high-speed format to make them look the size that they
do. Furthermore, simple sets/backdrops were created and spray
painted with neutral Greys – a colour of choice so that attention
isn’t diverted from the main characters. For a supposedly
‘outdoor’ shot, even the shadow of a Zoozoo was kept ‘live’ and
not done in post production: it was painted in a darker shade of
grey on the ground. An even lighting was maintained throughout.
There was virtually no post production work done.

The films were shot by Nirvana in Cape Town, South Africa, with
the help of a local production house there, called Platypus.
Incidentally, the same combination of people also worked on the
‘Happy to Help’ series last year. When asked whether Cape Town
is fast becoming a tourist spot for Vodafone and Nirvana, Varma
laughs, saying, “Oh no! It’s just that we are very comfortable with
the team there and know what sort of work to expect from them.”

Nagpal adds here that the production cost had to be minimal for
unveiling such a large number of commercials. “Otherwise, our
production costs would exceed media spends,” he quips.

Will the new Vodafone ads set a new trend in Indian ad industry?
Lets wait n see

Kite Runner - Book Review

The Kite Runner is a novel written by Khaled Hosseini an afghan writer
settled in USA.The theme of the novel swivels around family relationships
(particularly father and son),love,friendship, the inhumanity of a rigid class
system, the horrific realities of war,betrayal and the subsequent redemption.
The moment i hear of afghanistan what i picturise in my mind is war and
terrorism.But only after reading the book i realized that even afghansitan
was peaceful country and it had its own cultural heritage.But then due to
repeated wars it was ravaged.The story takes you through decades of change
in Afghanistan starting from the removal of the monarchy until the fall of the
ruthless Taliban.

The main character of the novel is Aamir from the high society class in
afghanistan.His father is Baba who is discontented with aamir partly coz he
was not as brave as him and partly he also blames aamir for his wife's death
(aamir's mother).Hassan the servant Ali's son is Aamir's best friend.Though
Aamir constantly abuses their friendship on many levels and also physically
abuses hassan coz he is jealous of the love that his father shows towards
Hassan.At some point of time Aamir betrays Hassan coz of that incident
both are separated from each other.And I do not want to break the twists
and suspense of the novel by goin thru the entire plot.The story goes on as
how aamir redeem his self afflicted sins and how he turns out to be
courageous rescuer from a sheepish cowardice.

There are two phrases that impressed me when i read thru this novel one is
always said by hasaan to aamir whenever aamir told him of some work.

"For you a thousand times over"

and the other one was said by aamir

“There is a way to be good again”

And if you want to be good again, if you have some hidden guilt in the
corner of your heart then get inspired to nullify the haunting guilt from
your life

Moreover, you will find yourself laughing and crying through every chapter.
Overall, Kite Runner is a thoughtful novel and I have absolutely nothing bad
to say about it.The novel was well written ,all the characters were suitably
developed and straightforward, which made the narrative easy to follow.
The writing style appeals to readers’ emotion a lot.Atleast for me, I was
extremely touched by sad scenes.


Heard the author's next book 'Thousand Splendid Suns' is also equally good.
Didn't get a chance to read it.Though i will read it soon and then post u guys
the review for it.

Forest Mokkai

Mokkai can be defined as a totally irrelevant statement of ultimate
creativity that is a complete nonsense statement and it brings complete
destructiveness to whomever hears it.If there are more than one listeners
to a mokkai they end up saying why blood?? same Blood !! It can also be
said as a PJ(PoorJoke)Otherwise.

Any profession there will be the best set of  professionals.
Like u take swimming Michael Phelps and in sprinting Usain Bolt.Likewise in
this art of delivering continuous mokkais i would rate my roommate to be the
best. Though i wouldn't like to disclose his name he l thrash me off if he
finds out.Lets say he is Ramu.


X: Nee en kaalla vilundhu kettaalum mannikka maattaen
Ramu: Ennadhu un kaalla ulundha??? (arisi,paruppu,ulundhu)
X: :(


Ramu : time ennada?
X : 9 40 aachu
Ramu : 9 eppidi da 40 aachu???


X : (after scanning the laptop for matter pics and videos) he asks ramu
Enna da ..intha Laptap la onnumaye illa.....?
Ramu asks X to wait he takes the laptops mouse goes to the calendar in
 taskbar sets date to 1st May and says..ippo 1 May irruku da...it took
 some 10 mins for  x to come back to normal.

X:dei vala-palam[Banana] venum
Ramu:Appa sava(to die) enna venum?

X:Franch oil Engappa?(where vs franch oil)
Ramu:ennathu franch oil unga appava?


Though his mokkais might give a sense of irritation when one first hears it
later on when we sit back and relax we all used to sit and laugh reminding it.
Then slowly all our roommates got used to him and everyone slowly they
developed their mokkai delivering levels.

Recently at our house we were just browsing thru the channels.
Apparently in one of the channels they were showing an old movie in which
"saukaar jaanaki" acted.Suddenly a friend of mine gets up and asks Guys do u
know why saukaar janaki is called as saukaar jaanaki.After thinking for a
long time we said no idea.Then he said since she used to have 100 (sau) cars
she is called as saukar janaki

One more colleague of me cracked these ones.
Y is ten afraid of  seven ?
as usual i gave after thinking for few mins.
The answer was 7 ate 9 (7,8,9) thats y (WTF was my reaction hope the same
with u guys.)

Dairy Industry Harsh realities

I have heard a lot from so called animal lovers or environmentalists or vegeterians about the meat industry and how it brutually tortures animal.I accept these facts. But why dont these people always neglect or forgot the suffferings done by the dairy industry ? .I would say if they truly care about these animals then they wont consume milk related products either.If eating meat or egg is sin then i wud say consuming milk is also an equal sin.

We generally believe that cows produce milk ‘naturally’ and they cherish getting milked. Its really surprising for many to learn that the life of a dairy cow is characterised by years of physical and emotional suffering.Dairy industry is always projected as happy cows with bellies grazing happily through grasslands where in actual case they r not so.Dairy cows do not automatically produce milk as many of us believe.Like any other female species—cows have to give birth in order to produce milk.The newly born calves are seperated within few hours or even after just few minutes from their birth, so that we can consume the cow's milk.This is very very stressfull for the cow and insecure for the calf as it is on its own having seperated from its mother.Also these calves are slaughtered for meat and more specifically for a substance called rennet which is used as a coagulant of milk in the process of making cheese.Male calves are of little value to the dairy industry, so dairy farmers sell them to the notoriously cruel meat industry.Most of the calves in the meat industry are mainly from the dairy industry.A byproduct of the dairy industry is a calf per year per cow.

To produce enormous amounts of milk cows are genetically manipulated,provided with high
energy feeds as well as drugged which will result in a metabolic strain on the animal.Also the great weight of the animal it l also acuse frequnet tears of ligament and foot problems like laminitis.

With advancement in the technologies most of the dairy industry now use milking machines
which causes infection to the cows at their mammary glands.The front teats may be subjected
to vacuum pulsing for up to two minutes after the quarter has been emptied and while the hind teats are still yielding. This is believed to be painful for the cow, and may also weaken tissue. The nature of the vacuum milking process is known to increase the possibility of infection.

Across few dairy farms the tails of the cows and the horns are amputated coz the dairy farmer do not want the dirty tails of cows to be swished in their face or the horns to hurt them.This causes severe pain,infections as well as nerve damage which might result in a chronic pain.

As time passes on if either the cows ability to produce milk declines or if they find difficult getting pregnant or it has any other disease then they are slaughtered. There is huge amount of wastewater and manure produced on dairy farms that pollutes rivers and underground water.A study by the University of Florida estimated that 100 cows can produce over 100,000 gallons of wastewater each week!

While I was browsing across sites to gather information i read this at one site i was really surprised by this fact .It says "The most alarming figure is that it takes 4000 glasses of water to produce just one glass of milk! (source: Fred Pearce, science advisor to New Scientist Magazine). This figure includes the water used to irrigate the crops grown to feed the cows, the water consumed by each dairy cow, and cleaning of the machinery and milking facilities."

Dont have a misconception that these kind of cruelties happens only on abroad.

Congrats to Dravid

Rahul Dravid, the former indian captain made the world record of highest catch taker in Test Cricket. Rahul Dravid achived this world record in Test match against New Zealand at Wellington on April 6th on the fourth day of the final testmatch dismissing Tim McIntosh.Dravid standing at third slip fumbled a bit before securing this record equalling catch.India won the series 1-0.He broke MarkWaugh's 181 catches record.The other cricketers who have catches nearby Dravid are Mark Waugh with 181 catches, Ricky Ponting having 148 catches, Jacques Kallis and Jayawardene with 147 and 142 catch respectively.
Though his batting records were always been overshadowed by sachin , he is quiet on his own in the slips

Also Dravid had a good Test match series against Newzealand scoring consistently though he couldnt convert any of them to a century

The atmosphere at anfield was simply amazing and the liverpool fans were making a great noise.
this is why liverpool is so strong at their home games and particularly when they play champions league.

chelsea were lil nervy initially and then a superb back pass by kuyt to arebola whose cross perfectly found Torres within the D line and el nino doesnt misses such simple chances and a fine finish took liverpool to lead under 6 mins.I was damn pissed off .To make my worries more ,drogba missed a sitter a one on one with reina.then Liverpool took a majority of possesion frustrating chelsea players.And again a long pass from ballack found drogbas left foot with no defencer around him one more one on one with reina this time drogba fired it above the post.
I was beginning to believe it wasn't our day.



Then ivanovic turned out to be a savor for chelsea striking his foal goal for chelsea impressively.
He made swift movement accross the penalty box before heading into the net.Moments later Drogba had one more chance and almost succesfully netted into the goal if at all carragher didnt had made a imposible save.Man i thought this was not Drogbas day at all.Ivanovic's second header took chelsea to lead.and a fine cross later from malouda found drogba who didnt find difficult to launch it inside the nets.That almost finished of the match.

Essien was the man for chelsea he was like a shield surrounding gerrard preventing him from moving much.With Gerrard contained by Essien and Mascherano's absence liverpool's midfield lacked pace and width.The replacement for mascherano Lucas was a disaster.

Liverpool in the last 20 mins tried scoring in vain except for one decent effort from Alonso else chelsea were pretty much in control.It was a night when everything went perfect for chelsea at anfield except for Terry's yellow card which forces him to sit out the next leg at home.
I guess chelsea are almost sure to reach the semifinals if at all for some brilliant display form
Gerrard and torres


A special mention to Petr Cech with his ' out of this world ' catching and two world class saves from Alonso and Kuyt

Still meeting Barca in semis is very ominous considering the display they showed against Bayern munich.Lets wait n see :) .
