Anna and our brother the corruption

 

Universality and equality is not possible, as long as the heart and brain remains unique; I mean the personal desire and personal opinions. It is no surprise to see many intelligent’s criticize Anna on “against corruption” movement and the Lokpal Bill.  Many of those anna’s criticizers even talking about democracy and human rights; including the so called social icon like Arunthathi roy.

 


This attitude needs no explanation! that is… wether it is good or bad, you will have few supporting your side and few the other-way. 


Corruption is a global concern, were States & Governments are corrupting each

65th Independence day, story book donations

Few months back, I had a wonderful opportunity to visit Advesa trust run libraries in north Chennai.  Interactions with those below 12 years children really made  me happy. Specially when emphasizing about importance of education.   Education a tool which can change the life status and style.   These libraries hold huge collection of story books donated by many volunteers. Which made me to think and created a desire to donate good story books to elementary schools nearby my village.   


This 65th Independence day, with help of Ambharishpuram village youths(அம்பரிஷ்புரம் நண்பர்கள்) Rajendran, Saravanan, Kirankumar, Gopi, Pondurangan, Suresh Babu, Sugumaran, Janaarthanam,

Something about Rajini, human attitude & perception about cinema professionals.

I watch movies & my favorites are hollywood collections, few of Tamil, Telugu and Hindi movies. My best categories or action, science fiction & social. Mostly the movies with unique scripts and creativity. I go to theaters at least once in 3 months. On weekends  watch hollywood collections on HBO & Star movies. Yup.. It relaxes me a bit, create some energy too.

About Human Attitude :-
Well coming to this blog post, I have been repeatedly wondering about the fan and followers of cinema actors!  Even told to few of my friends that a there is a need of

Touch Tamil Keypad Standard for touch based devices, TI2011 Conference Paper

Tamil keyboards have faced many approaches since the introduction of Indic languages into font encoding standards. Depending on the operating systems like Windows, Linux & Mac OSx. Further font encoding standards like TAB, TSCII, TACE & UNICODE & respective keyboard layouts have added lot of complexity to the Tamil computing. Mainly because many entrepreneurs with interest to find a solution; have introduced different keyboards like Typewriter, Tamil99, Bamini, Anjal, Google & Unicode etc.  Most of them are based on the platform of the English phonetic type. They followed English typewriter structure & English characters usage calculations. I strongly doubt about …

iOS 5, Top features expected

  • Notification Center: Probably the most significant improvement to iOS. The notifications definitely remind you of Android, but are more informative and practical.

  • Lock Screen Notifications: Another feature “borrowed” from other platforms. Windows Mobile did this and so does Symbian, but again, Apple did it better.
  • Better Facetime and Over 3g!! Here is something I missed. iOS5 has enhanced video quality for Facetime calls and will now work on 3G and not just Wifi. Of course, with Microsoft having bought Skype, Apple realized they need to get with the times and offer 3G video calling.
  • iMessage: Free messaging for

CocoaHeads, Cocoa Developers Chennai Chapter

iOS  & Mac OS X is very new to India, prior to iPhone launch, not many were in need of learning Cocoa programming and use Mac OS X based Macbooks and iMac. After the iPhone & iPad Success, Indian market is turning into Cocoa Developers. For the past one year many new programmers are getting into Development only through self learning. I really thought why not to form  a professional forum where Cocoa programmers can join together and have weekend sessions and exchange good practices & work on collaborative projects. With association from CocoaHeads.org I will be  hosting Chennai Chapter …

Who is the dictator? Gaddafi or UN

Rural Children Library Development and Che Guvera


“I must say I find television very educational. The minute somebody turns it on, I go to the library and read a good book.”

“The library is the temple of learning, and learning has liberated more people than all the wars in history.

“Read a book for few hours to get years of experience”.

This weekend, I had a wonderful opportunity as a Guest Story Teller. I have shared few moral stories  with the students/children’s of Alphonsa library Mathur, Don Bosco library Basin Bridge, and Children from Shelter home.

These libraries are privately managed by Advesa Charitable Trust, an organization …
