ஹே ராம் , வேறென்ன சொல்ல?

சத்திய சோதனை (Experimenting with truth) சரி, மஹாத்மா காந்தியடிகள் மேற்கொண்ட பிரமச்சரிய சோதனை (Experimenting with brahmacharya) பற்றி Wikipedia வில் உள்ள தகவல்கள் மனதிற்கு மிகவும் அதிர்ச்சி அளிப்பவையாக உள்ளன.

தனது தள்ளாத வயதில், காந்தி தன் பிரம்மச்சர்யத்தின் வலிமையை சோதனை செய்வதற்காக படுக்கையில் நிர்வாணமாக இளம் பெண்களுடன் உறங்கினாராம். என்னுடைய மனக் கட்டுப்பாட்டினை சோதிப்பதற்கும், உடல் சூட்டில் குளிர் தாங்கிக் கொள்வதற்கும் என்றாராம் மஹாத்மா.
மேலும் அஹிம்சைக்கு அடுத்து அவர் அதிகம் பேசிய தலைப்பு 'பாலியல்' தான் என்கிறது அந்த வலைத்தளம். கொடுக்கப்பட்டுள்ள செய்திகளுக்கு அவர் எழுதிய கடிதங்களையும், பிற நூல்களையும் ஆதாரமாகவும் கூறுகின்றனர். 

மஹாத்மாவே - மனது வலிக்கிறது ஹே ராம் , வேறென்ன சொல்ல?

Korean Mobiles - Quit India !



Phew atlast ! the nail-on-board sounding Korean mobile phones are soon to be laid to rest in peace ! A hot Caffè espresso to Indian Government on me, for waking up at last, atleast in the wake of terror incidents in Mumbai.
It is shocking to know that multitudinous figure of more than 1.6 crores of Korean handset are in use in India alone and their sales constitute about 13.3 per cent (or Rs 4,000 crore) of the Rs 30,000-crore annual mobile handset market in the country. For those who think in the way of "Brand nahi tho Style nahi" and do not know of their existence, these handsets come with all features of high end branded mobiles, but without guarantee and IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity ). While there is no problem with them being sold with nil guarantee, handsets without IMEI pose a serious threat to national security. A genuine IMEI number is registered with a GSM service provider and it facilitates blocking, monitoring and tracing. The terrorists use handsets without IMEI number or one with fake IMEI in order to avoid being caught. The Department of Telecom (DoT) will be instructing telecos to bar calls originating from phones which do not have an IMEI number or have zero as their IMEI number.
I wonder about the possible ways, a currently used Korean mobiles could be put to use. FM radio ? MP3 player ? Phone book ? Toy ? ... A better option would be to dispose it of, in an eco-friendly manner and say a silent prayer.
But , not to forget that , some newer generation junkies do come with fake IMEI numbers and softwares to change IMEI numbers are freely available on net.

P.S: Want to know if you are using a genuine mobile ?
You can retrieve your mobile's IMEI by entering *#06#

Psychopath Serial Killer in Chennai

Humble Request to Police Department:



Please take all the necessary actions to nab the blood-thirsty nocturnal psychopath who's on a killing spree.

But please do not disclose the news of his/her capture...

Our heavy-lidded apartment security and the Ghorka have never been so vigilant and sleepless during duty hours

"பசு அறியும் அந்தச் சிசு அறியும்"

Getting goosebumps while listening to Raja's Thiruvasagam is nothing uncommon, but the following real life incident gave me goosebumps
...


An NRI tamil couple in Germany , happily awaiting the countdown for arrival of their baby had the shock of life when there was no movement from the seven months old foetus . Even the doctors lost hope and prognosed something terribly wrong. Getting back home drenched in tears, the couple played Raja's Thiruvasagam to soothe their hearts.
Thats when the miracle happened. The foetus had moved in response to the soul-stirring composition. The couple unable to take in, checked the reaction of foetus by pausing and playing the CD and found that the foetus promptly responded to the notes of Thiruvasagam leaving the medical team there in awe.
Recently the baby has been born hale and healthy and the proud parents flew to Chennai, met Raja and got his blessings.

Its my 100th

Happy that this is my 100th post and I thank all the visitors to my blog for all the support and encouragement.

Since, Many of my friends and even myself noted that 'Grey matter matters' is knee deep into music, films and other commercial elements , I had an urge to start a blog dedicated to Science and to be exact, " Microbiology", my cup of tea.

So, I flagged off the new blog "Invisible Yet Invincible", with support from my colleague Mr.Sekar. It will have regular updates on scientific breakthroughs, Minireviews, Upcoming Scientific events and Job vacancy alerts.

If you are a Life Science person or by any chance, interested in the world of microbes, pay a visit and bookmark it.

With a bunch of interesting audio releases ahead this month, Grey Matter Matters will continue to enthrall you ... :-)

Save American College (from becoming a Hogwarts!)



If you were a student of “The American College”, Madurai you need no descriptions. If not, speak with any current student or alumni of the College to understand the bond and the unmistakable pride they have developed being an American collegiate. It is one unique place in Tamilnadu where the professors and students share a very casual and friendly relationship, unlike its contemporary institutions.

It’s disheartening to read about the recent happenings in the most prestigious institution. Check out the news coverage in The Hindu. No one with an intact mind would think of erecting a shopping mall and petrol bunk in the place of college’s playground.

Doesn’t the current situation of American college reminds us of the plot in “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix” ?- where the Ministry of Magic takes control of Hogwarts school and the headmaster Dumbledore is replaced with heartless Umbridge arbitrarily imposing strict rules and regulations and punishing those who disobey her rules. Its time to act and defend our college from the dark affairs.

Please help by spreading this message across to yours friends and peers. There is every possibility of some prime areas within the institution to be
sold off for monetary gains. To prevent this, it is time that we acted
unitedly and quickly to defeat these evil designs.
