Neelathamara Review:

Neelathamara is the remake of a 30 year old Malayalam movie. The movie revolves around Kizhakumbattu an ancestral home in a village. There is a temple near the home. Kunhjimalu (Archana) and Sharothe Ammini arrive there daily to offer prayers . There was a belief among the people that, if anyone offers special prayer to the deity at this temple, a blue lotus will bloom in the pond near the temple. Kunhjimalu was Appukkuttan’s uncle’s daughter.

One day Kunhjimalu was brought to Kizhakumbattu Malukutty Amma’s house to do household work by Appu Kuttan. Haridas (Kamlesh) who was the only son of Kizhakumbattu family. He returned home after completing higher studies. Later he falls in love with house maid Kunhji Malu.

CAT 2009


As the final countdown for Common Admission Test 2009 has begun, it is important for the students to keep the nerves calm. Now only two days are left for ten days CAT 2009 window to start. For the first time in 40 years long history of CAT, it is going to be Online.There was some confusion initially regarding the CAT exam whether it will be Computer Adaptive Test similar to GMAT and GRE. But as per the guideline provided by the IIMs, it is now clear that exam is going to Computer Based Test. That means that the test will be stored offline in the computers and it will not be an adaptive test, in which the difficulty level of questions increases with the each correct answer.

Now coming to CAT 2009, we will be providing extensive analysis of the CAT 2009 over the next two weeks. During this period we will be publishing memory based questions and discuss them among the student community. As this time we will not have hard paper with the students, so students will not get the idea of their score after the exam.

Also we have expert opinion and comments from the Top B-school students and alumni.We have expert from various IIMs, FMS, XLRI, SPJAIN, MICA, IIFT and CAT coaching center faculties for the CAT analysis and discussion. So we are looking forward for providing guidance to students and help them getting through the final hurdle.

aibea wage revision latest news

The Indian Banks’ Association (IBA) and United Forum of Bank Unions (UFBU) have agreed to meet on November 27 to take the wage bipartite talks forward. Over 7 lakh public sector bank employees will keenly wait for the outcome of the meeting. Wage revision for them is due from November 2007.

Incidentally, both negotiating parties have agreed on a 17.5% wage hike. They have also in principle agreed to offer monthly pension to 2.66 bank employees, who did not opt for it in 1993. But their last meeting in the final week of September remained inconclusive as they could not arrive at the accounting methodology of pension.

“Issues like accounting for the cost of pension and the cost sharing arrangement between bank management and employees, the proposed introduction of New Pension Scheme (NPS) and variable pay are some issues that need to be resolved,” said All India Bank Employees Association (AIBEA) president Rajen Nagar.

UFBU — the umbrella organisation for nine leading bank unions — is not also comfortable with IBA’s proposal to introduce NPS for bankers joining after April 2010.

IBA and UFBU jointly finalise the pay hike plans for public sector bank employees. Talks on the eighth bipartite meeting has been on for quite sometime now. Public sector banks including State Bank of India have 2.44 lakh officers and 4.68 lakh workmen employees who are awaiting a wage revision now- FROM ECONOMIC TIMES |

BAKRI - ID

Also Known As : Idul Adha

Celebrated On : The Tenth day of the month Dhul Hijja.

Religion : Muslim

The feast of sacrifice, Idul-Adha, in India pronounced Idul Azha and popularly known as Baqri Id, is celebrated on the tenth day of the month Dhu'l Hijja. It is the sacrifice made by the pilgrims and performed as part of the ceremonies of the great pilgrimage. While the pilgrims are making their sacrifices at Mina, the ceremony is observed simultaneously by Muslims everywhere. It is prescribed in the Quran.

"That (is the command). And whoso magnifieth the offerings consecrated to Allah, it surely is from devotion of the hearts.
Therein are benefits for you for an appointed term; and afterward they are brought for sacrifice unto the ancient House.
And for every nation have We appointed a ritual, that they may mention the name of Allah over the beast of cattle that he hath given them for food; and your God is One God, therefore surrender unto Him. And give good tidings (Muhammad) to the humble.

Whose hearts fear when Allah is mentioned, and the patient of whatever may befall them, and those who establish worship and who spend of that We have bestowed on them.

And the camels! We have appointed them among the ceremonies of Allah. Therein ye have much good. So mention the name of Allah over them when they are drawn up in lines. Then when their flanks fall (dead), eat thereof and feed the beggar and the suppliant. Thus have We made them subject unto you, that haply ye may give thanks.

Their flesh and their blood reach not Allah, but the devotion from you reacheth Him. Thus have We made them subject unto you that you may magnify Allah that He hath guided you. And give good tidings (0 Muhammad) to the good."'

The above passage of the Koran has this foot-note of explanation :

"The slaughter of animals for food for the poor which is one of the ceremonies of the Muslim pilgrimage is not a propitiatory sacrifice, but is in commemoration of the sacrifice of Abraham which marked the end of human sacrifices for the Semitic race, and which made it clear that the only sacrifice which God requires of man is the surrender of his will and purpose - i.e. Al-Islam."

The sacrifice offered on the day of Idul-Adha has been instituted in commemoration of Abraham's willingness to offer up his only son Ishmael. The sacrificial offering is divided into three portions, one being set apart for household consumption, another for friends and relatives and the third for the poor and needy. The distribution of the offering enjoined by the holy Law is designed to provide a substantial meal to the poor on this festive occasion.

The animal sacrifice can be offered on the first day of the festival or any time later till the afternoon of the third day following it. For four days on this occasion, i.e., from the morning of the ninth to the afternoon prayer of the fourteenth of Dhu'l Hijja, special praise and glory to God is recited after every prayer. The formula is this:


who invented the optical fiber

In 1854, John Tyndall demonstrated to the Royal Society that light could be conducted through a curved stream of water, proving that a light signal could be bent.In 1880, Alexander Graham Bell invented his 'Photophone', which transmitted a voice signal on a beam of light. Bell focused sunlight with a mirror and then talked into a mechanism that vibrated the mirror. At the receiving end, a detector picked up the vibrating beam and decoded it back into a voice the same way a phone did with electrical signals. Many things -- a cloudy day for instance -- could interfere with the photophone, causing Bell to stop any further research with this invention.

In 1880, William Wheeler invented a system of light pipes lined with a highly reflective coating that illuminated homes by using light from an electric arc lamp placed in the basement and directing the light around the home with the pipes.In 1888, the medical team of Roth and Reuss of Vienna used bent glass rods to illuminate body cavities.

In 1895, French engineer Henry Saint-Rene designed a system of bent glass rods for guiding light images in an attempt at early television.In 1898, American David Smith applied for a patent on a bent glass rod device to be used as a surgical lamp.In the 1920's, Englishman John logie baird and American Clarence W. Hansell patented the idea of using arrays of transparent rods to transmit images for television and facsimiles respectively.

In 1930, German medical student, Heinrich Lamm was the first person to assemble a bundle of optical fibers to carry an image. Lamm's goal was to look inside inaccessible parts of the body. During his experiments, he reported transmitting the image of a light bulb. The image was of poor quality, however. His effort to file a patent was denied because of Hansell's British patent.

n 1954, Dutch scientist Abraham Van Heel and British scientist Harold. H. Hopkins separately wrote papers on imaging bundles. Hopkins reported on imaging bundles of unclad fibers while Van Heel reported on simple bundles of clad fibers. He covered a bare fiber with a transparent cladding of a lower refractive index. This protected the fiber reflection surface from outside distortion and greatly reduced interference between fibers. At the time, the greatest obstacle to a viable use of fiber optics was in achieving the lowest signal (light) loss.

In 1964, a critical (and theoretical) specification was identified by Dr. C.K. Kao for long-range communication devices, the 10 or 20 decibels of light loss per kilometer standard. Kao also illustrated the need for a purer form of glass to help reduce light loss.

In 1970, one team of researchers began experimenting with fused silica, a material capable of extreme purity with a high melting point and a low refractive index. Corning Glass researchers Robert maurer, peter Schultz, Donald keck invented fiber optic wire or "Optical Waveguide Fibers" (patent #3,711,262) capable of carrying 65,000 times more information than copper wire, through which information carried by a pattern of light waves could be decoded at a destination even a thousand miles away. The team had solved the problems presented by Dr. Kao.

In 1975, the United States Government decided to link the computers in the NORAD headquarters at Cheyenne Mountain using fiber optics to reduce interference.

In 1977, the first optical telephone communication system was installed about 1.5 miles under downtown Chicago, and each optical fiber carried the equivalent of 672 voice channels.

Today more than 80 percent of the world's long-distance traffic is carried over optical fiber cables, 25 million kilometers of the cable Maurer, Keck and Schultz designed has been installed world wide.



review of de dana dan

De Dana Dan is a forthcoming Hindi language comedy film directed by Priyadarshan.
Star Cast: Akshay Kumar, Katrina Kaif, Suniel Shetty, Sameera Reddy, Neha Dhupia, Johnny Lever, Paresh Rawal, Archana Puran Singh, Aditi Govitrikar, Shakti Kapoor

De Dana Dan Movie Review:

De Dana Dan is a comedy movie directed by Priyadarshan. The film stars Akshay Kumar as Nitin, Sunil Shetty as Ram and Katrina Kaif as Anjali

The story is about Two hapless men Nitin (Akshay) and Ram (Shetty) who are good for nothing, their bank balance is zero. Each of them has a rich girlfriend , try to impress their respective girlfriends (Katrina Kaif and Sameera Reddy) by making a quick buck.

Tired by their attitude towards life, their rich girl friends now give them an ultimatum to earn enough money or forget us forever. Broke and desperate these two need to make a lot of money and fast.

They kidnap a dog. Yes you heard it right. They do indeed kidnap a dog. But not any dog as this is a spoilt pet belonging to Archana (played by Archana Puran Singh). For its safe return they want money. But a series of mishaps lead the police to believe that one of the two kidnappers (Akshay Kumar) is the one kidnapped. Confused? Well don’t be as the story pens out on the screen in an unconfused manner that even the little kids will understand.

The supporting cast, including the likes of Paresh Rawal, Johnny Lever, Rajpal Yadav, Asrani and Neha Dhupia, perform above-standard. One would assume that with such a massive cast of stars each would be at a loss but that is not the case. Every one of these character actors perform well and it is an enjoyment to watch them take precedence during the second half of the film.

As the two try to get their hands on the ransom money, they meet characters like a Chinese Don, a hired assassin, an ACB officer, a club dancer, an ambassador, a young frustrated wife, a letch, a drunken waiter and a dead body nobody wants.

Arya movie review




Arya (Allu Arjun), is an orphan, with strong conviction in the morale of friendship. During childhood, though he gets the opportunity to get adopted by a rich couple, Arya sacrifices the same in favour of his friend Ajay (Navadeep). As the reels move on, Ajay turns into a rich guy. However, Arya gets into a software company of his friend. There, both the friends fall in love with an employee Geetha (Kajal Agarwal).

Allu Arjun is full of energy as the guy caught in the powerful current of love. Though he plays the part with negative shades, his characterization could evoke a lot of sympathy from the audiences. His dances are mind-blowing and he excels in emotional scenes.

A befuddled girl, Geetha is left high and dry as to who should she chose? Giving a perfect twist that fits the bill of a Telugu film making, the heroine happens to be the daughter of a dreaded factionist Rajireddy (Mukesh Rishi), who fixes her marriage with the son of another factionist. Now, the two friends are desperate to undo the marriage. Whether they succeed in the game? Who is the choice of Geetha between the two? It forms the crux of the film.

Kajal looks pretty. Navadeep’s in a passive role has nothing much to do, while Shraddha Das ends up as a glorified extra. Brahmanandam as HR manger cum psychiatrist provides good laughs before the interval. Erina in an item song sizzles but lacks oomph factor like a Mumait or Abhinaya Sri. Mukesh Rishi does the role of a factionist with ease. Ajay as Subbireddy is good.

The basic problem is its unnatural script, where the hero’s characterization is marred by negative shades. As a matter of fact, those who would reach the theatres with expectation that Arya-2 is really a sequel to the blockbuster Arya, they would sure find themselves in a soup. On the whole, director Sukumar fails both as a writer and director as his plotline is confusing and his hero’s characterization is negative. The film’s hero, Allu Arjun, acts like a psycho and his obsessive love and admiration towards heroine Kajal and his friend Navadeep evoke many suspicions. Although it starts off well, second half, especially towards the climax, is contrived
