color="#3366ff"&gt;மின்னஞ்சல் (Electronic Mail (a) Email) என்பது நமது தின வாழ்க்கையில் தவிர்க்க முடியாத ஒன்றாகிவிட்டது. மற்றவர்களுடன் வேகமாக தொடர்பு கொள்ள செலவில்லாத ஒரு தகவல் பரிமாற்ற சாதனமாக விளங்குகிறது.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;img

color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;துவக்கத்தில் மின்னஞ்சல் என்றால் அனைவருக்கும் தெரிந்தது ஹாட்மெயில் தான். முதலில் துவங்கப்பட்ட மின்னஞ்சல் சேவையும் இது தான். இந்த மின்னஞ்சல் சேவையை இந்தியரான சபீர் பாட்டியா தனது நண்பர் ஜாக் ஸ்மித்துடன் துவங்கினார் (ஜூலை 4, 1996) என்பது நமக்கு பெருமையளிக்கும் விஷயம். தகவல்களை பகிர்ந்திட எளிமையாகவும் வேகமாகவும் இருந்ததால் அனைவரிடமும் விரைவில் வரவேற்ப்பை பெற்றது. இதனுடைய வளர்ச்சியைப் பார்த்து பிரபல மைக்ரோசாப்ட் நிறுவனம் இதை USD 400 மில்லியனுக்கு (டிசம்பர் 1997) வாங்கிக்கொண்டது!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;ஹாட்மெயில் உடன் வந்த இன்னொரு மின்னஞ்சல் சேவை &amp;quot;ராக்கெட் மெயில்&amp;quot;. இதுதான் பின்னாளில் &amp;quot;யாஹூ&amp;quot;வாக மாறியது. இன்று வரை மின்னஞ்சல் சேவையில் முன்னணியில் இருப்பது ஹாட்மெயில்... அடுத்தது யாஹூ. தொடர்ந்து ஜிமெயில் சேவை. நம்மிடையே தற்போது ஜிமெயில் பிரபலமாக இருந்தாலும் மின்னஞ்சல் ரேங்கிங்கில் மூன்றாவது இடத்திலேயே உள்ளது.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;துவக்கத்தில் மிகக் குறைவான அளவிலேயே சேமிப்பு அளவு கொடுத்தார்கள். 2 MB அளவுக்குதான் இருந்தது. ஜிமெயில் 1 GB என்று அதிரடியாக இடம் கொடுத்த பிறகு அரண்டு போன மைக்ரோசாப்ட் யாஹூ நிறுவனங்கள், பின் தங்களின் அளவையும் அதிகரிக்க வேண்டிய கட்டாயத்திற்கு தள்ளப்பட்டன. ஜிமெயில் வந்த பிறகு ஹாட்மெயில், யாஹூ மின்னஞ்சல்களுக்கு இறங்கு முகமாகவே உள்ளது. இன்று வரை பயனாளர்களை அதிகளவில் கொண்டு மின்னஞ்சல் சேவையில் முதல் இரண்டு இடங்களில் ஹாட்மெயில், யாஹூ இருந்தாலும் வளர்ச்சியின் அடிப்படையில் ஜிமெயில் முன்னணியில் உள்ளது.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;இந்த நிலையில் ஃபேஸ்புக், ட்விட்டர் போன்ற சமூகத்தளங்கள் பிரபலமான பிறகு பலரும் தங்கள் தகவல்களை இதிலேயே பரிமாறிக் கொள்வதால் மின்னஞ்சல் பயன்பாடு குறைந்து வருவதாக பேசப்பட்டது. இதற்கு சிகரம் வைத்தது போல ஃபேஸ்புக் மின்னஞ்சல் சேவையை துவங்கியது இது &amp;#39;Messaging Service&amp;#39; என்று அழைக்கப்பட்டது. ஃபேஸ்புக் மின்னஞ்சல் சேவை என்பது வழக்கமான மின்னஞ்சல் சேவை போல இல்லாமல் Email, IM, SMS ஆகியவற்றை உள்ளடக்கி அமைத்து இருந்தது. இது &amp;quot;Gmail Killer&amp;quot; என்று அழைக்கப்பட்டது. ஆனால் எதிர்பார்க்கப்பட்டது போல எதுவும் நடக்காமல் புஸ்ஸாகிவிட்டது!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;ஃபேஸ்புக் மின்னஞ்சல், ஜிமெயிலுக்கு எந்த பாதிப்பையும் ஏற்படுத்தவில்லை. இன்னும் சொல்லப்போனால் இப்படி ஒரு சேவை வந்தது என்றே பலருக்கு தெரியவில்லை.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;இவை இப்படி இருந்தாலும் பலர் மின்னஞ்சலை பயன்படுத்தாமல் ஃபேஸ்புக் ட்விட்டரிலியே பேசிக்கொள்வது அதிகரித்துக் கொண்டு வருவது உண்மை. நீங்கள் அதிகம் சமூகத்தளங்கள் பயன்படுத்துபவராக இருந்தால் மின்னஞ்சலில் உங்கள் நண்பர்களை தொடர்பு கொள்வதை விட சமூகத்தளங்களில் தொடர்பு வைத்திருப்பதே அதிகமாக இருக்கும். யோசித்துப் பார்த்தீர்களென்றால் தனிப்பட்ட முறையில் நீங்கள் அனுப்பும், பெறும் மின்னஞ்சல்களின் எண்ணிக்கை முன்பை காட்டிலும் இப்போது குறைந்திருக்கும். குழும மின்னஞ்சல்கள் (Group Mails), அறிவிப்பு மின்னஞ்சல்கள் போன்றவை இந்தக்கணக்கில் வராது.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;மின்னஞ்சலில் இருப்பது போல சமூகத் தளங்களிலும் நமக்கு தேவையானவர்களை பிரித்து தகவல்களை தெரிவிக்க முடியும். அதாவது குறிப்பிட்ட நபர்களுக்கு மட்டும் நமது தகவலை தெரிவிக்க முடியும். சமூகத் தளங்களில் Bubble notification என்ற அற்புதமான வசதியின் மூலம் நம்மால் மின்னஞ்சலைப் பார்க்காமலே நமக்கு வந்திருக்கும் தகவலை உடனடியாக அறிய முடியும். இணைய தொலைபேசிகளில் Push notification என்ற முறையில் விரைவாக அறிய முடியும்.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;ஃபேஸ்புக் சமீபத்தில் நமக்கு வரும் தகவல்கள் அறிவிப்பு முறையில் மின்னஞ்சல் முறையை மாற்றி Bubble notification முறையை ஊக்குவித்துள்ளது. நமக்கு மின்னஞ்சல் வேண்டும் என்றாலும் மாற்றிக்கொள்ளலாம். முன்பு நமக்கு வந்த தகவலை அறிய அனைவரும் மின்னஞ்சலையே ஃபேஸ்புக்கில் பயன்படுத்திக்கொண்டு இருந்தோம். தற்போது Bubble notification எளிதாக இருக்கிறது. அதோடு மின்னஞ்சல்களின் எண்ணிக்கையையும் குறைந்து விட்டது குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது. கூகுள் + ம் இதே முறையில் சிறப்பாக செயல்பட்டு வருகிறது.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;@ சிம்பல் மூலம் நாம் விரும்பும் நபரின் பெயரை கொடுத்து உடனடியாக அவரது கவனத்தைப் பெற முடியும். இதைப்போல எளிதான வசதி இருக்கும் போது மின்னஞ்சல் அனுப்புவது எல்லாம் பழைய ஸ்டைல் ஆகிவிட்டது. இதை எளிதாக ஃபேஸ்புக் மற்றும் கூகுள் + ல் செய்ய முடியும் என்பதால் பெரும்பாலான ஃபேஸ்புக் மற்றும் கூகுள் + பயனாளர்கள் இந்த முறையையே பின்பற்றுகிறார்கள்.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;எடுத்துக்காட்டாக ஒருவரைப் பற்றிய தகவலை ஃபேஸ்புக், கூகுள் + ல் பதிகிறோம் என்றால் நாம் @ &amp;lt;நண்பர் பெயர்&amp;gt; கொடுத்து உடனே அவரது கவனத்தை ஈர்க்கலாம் அதாவது &amp;quot;நான் உங்கள் தொடர்புள்ள செய்தியை இங்கே கூறி இருக்கிறேன் இங்கே வாருங்கள்&amp;quot; என்பதாகும். இதன் மூலம் அந்த நபர் உடனடியாக தன்னைப்பற்றிய தகவலுக்கு பதில் தர முடியும் அந்த செய்தியை தாமாக கவனிக்கும் வரை காத்திருக்கத் தேவையில்லை.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;உலகளவில் அதிகம் பார்வையிடும் தளமாக தொடர்ந்து இரண்டாவது ஆண்டாக தன்னுடைய முதல் இடத்தை ஃபேஸ்புக் தக்க வைத்து இருப்பது குறிப்பிடத்தக்கதாகும். சமூகத்தளங்கள் வளர்ச்சியைக் கண்டு மிரண்ட கூகுள் இதன் காரணமாகத் தான் கூகுள் + சமூகத் தளத்தை துவங்கியது. எதிர்காலத்தில் சமூகத்தளங்கள் முக்கியப் பங்கு வகிக்கும் என்று அனைவரும் கூறுவதால் இதற்கு முக்கியத்துவம் கொடுக்கப்படுகிறது.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;சமூகத்தளங்கள் மூலம் பல நாடுகளின் தலை எழுத்தே மாற்றி அமைக்கப்பட்டு இருக்கிறது. இதற்கு உதாரணமாக துனீசியா, எகிப்து, லிபியா என்று கூறிக்கொண்டே போகலாம். இந்தியாவில் அன்னா ஹசாரே போராட்டத்திற்கு பெரிதும் துணையாக இருந்தது சமூகத் தளங்களே என்பதும் இங்கே குறிப்பிட வேண்டிய விசயமாகும்.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;இது போல போராட்டங்களின் செய்தியை மக்களிடம் வேகமாக கொண்டு செல்ல பயன்பட்டவை சமூகத் தளங்களே! இதற்கு யாரும் மின்னஞ்சலை முக்கிய தகவல் பரிமாற்ற சாதனமாக பயன்படுத்தவில்லை என்பதை இங்கே நாம் உணர வேண்டும். பரபரப்பு செய்தி என்றால் ட்விட்டரில் காட்டுத்தீயாக சில நிமிடங்களில் உலகம் முழுவதும் பரவி விடுகிறது.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;இன்னொரு முக்கியமான விஷயம் தற்போதைய தலைமுறையின் துவக்கமே சமூகத் தளங்களோடு உள்ளது அவர்கள் மின்னஞ்சலை குறைவாகவே பயன்படுத்தி இருப்பார்கள். இந்த நிலையில் எதிர் வரும் தலைமுறையினர் மின்னஞ்சல் என்ற வசதிக்கே போகாமல் சமூகத் தளங்களுக்கே முன்னுரிமை அளிப்பார்கள். இதனால் படிப்படியாக மின்னஞ்சல் பயன்பாடு குறைய அதிக வாய்ப்பு இருப்பதாகவே தோன்றுகிறது.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;கடிதம்.. மொபைல்.. மின்னஞ்சல்... இனி சோஷியல்

கூற வேண்டும் என்றால் முன்பு கடிதம் பிரபலமாக இருந்தது. தற்போதைய தலைமுறையினர் நேராக மின்னஞ்சல், தொலைபேசிக்கு வந்து விட்டார்கள் அதாவது கடிதப் பயன்பாடு என்ற ஒன்றை தொடாமலே!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;அதே போல அடுத்த தலைமுறையினர் மின்னனஞ்சலுக்கு செல்லாமலே நேராக சமூகத்தளங்களுக்கு வந்து விடுவார்கள். அவர்கள் மின்னஞ்சலை முக்கிய சேவையாக பயன்படுத்த வேண்டிய தேவையே இருக்காது அல்லது அவர்களுக்கு பயன்படுத்த அதிகம் வாய்ப்பு அமையாது.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;இதனாலே நிபுணர்கள் மின்னஞ்சலுக்கு சிறப்பான எதிர்காலம் இல்லை என்கிறார்கள்.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&amp;#39;இல்ல இல்ல.... அவ்வளவு சீக்கிரம் அழியாது&amp;#39;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;எப்போதுமே எந்த ஒரு விஷயத்திற்கும் மாற்றுக்கருத்து நிச்சயம் இருக்கும். அப்படி மின்னஞ்சல் சமாச்சாரத்தில் மாற்றுக்கருத்து சிலவற்றை பார்ப்போம்.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;நிறுவனங்கள் தங்கள் தகவல் பரிமாற்றத்திற்கு மின்னஞ்சலையே பயன்படுத்த முடியும். சமூகத்தளங்களை பயன்படுத்த முடியாது.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;  &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;சமூகத் தளங்கள் சீனா போன்ற பல நாடுகளில் தடை செய்யப்பட்டுள்ளது. சீனாவில் நீங்கள் ஃபேஸ்புக், ட்விட்டர் பயன்படுத்த முடியாது. இது போல சமயங்களில் நமக்கு அங்கே நண்பர்கள் இருந்தால் இதில் தொடர்பு கொள்ள முடியாது. இதற்கு மின்னஞ்சல்தான் மாற்று தகவல் பரிமாற்ற சாதனம்.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;அலுவலகங்களில் சமூகத் தளங்களுக்கு தடை உள்ளது. எனவே இதில் தகவல்களை பார்க்க முடியாது. இதற்கு அந்த சமயங்களில் நமது இணைய தொலைபேசி போன்ற சில மாற்று வசதிகள் இருந்தாலும் உடனடி பயன்பாட்டிற்கு சிரமமாகவே இருக்கும்.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;உலகில் இன்னும் பெரும்பான்மையானோர் மின்னஞ்சலையே பயன்படுத்துக்கிறார்கள். அதோடு நம் நண்பர்கள் அனைவரும் சமூகத்தளங்களில் உறுப்பினராக இருப்பார்கள் என்று கருத முடியாது.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;நாம் செய்யும் சிறு தவறு கூட பெரிய அபாயத்தில் முடியலாம். எடுத்துக்காட்டாக சமீபத்தில் ஹாலிவுட் நடிகரான Charlie Sheen பிரபல பாடகரான Justine Bieber க்கு தனிப்பட்ட முறையில் தகவல் அனுப்பவதாக நினைத்து தனது தொலைபேசி எண்ணை அவரை ட்விட்டரில் பின் தொடரும் 5 மில்லியன் நபர்களுக்கும் அனுப்பி விட்டார்.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;சமூகத் தளங்கள் மூலம் நாம் நண்பர்களுடன் எளிதாக தொடர்பு கொள்ளலாம். அதையே தொழில் அலுவலக பணி சம்பந்தப்பட்ட நிலை என்று வரும் போது இதை பயன்படுத்துவது அவ்வளவு நாகரீகமாக இருக்காது. அது சில நேரங்களில் சாத்தியமும் இல்லை. இதைப்போல சமயங்களில் மின்னஞ்சலையே பயன்படுத்த வேண்டி இருக்கும்.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;மேற்கூறிய தகவல்கள் அனைத்தும் சமீபமாக இணையம் முழுவதும் பரபரப்பாக பேசப்படும் விசயமாக உள்ளது. இது பற்றி எழுதாத தொழில்நுட்பத் தளங்களே இல்லை என்கிற அளவிற்கு இது பற்றி அனைவரும் பகிர்ந்து வருகிறார்கள். முடிவாக தகவல் பரிமாற்றத்துக்கு துவக்கத்தில் புறா, ஓலை அனுப்பினார்கள் பின் கடித முறை வந்தது. அது மெதுவாக உள்ளது என்று மின்னஞ்சல் பிரபலமானது. தற்போது அதுவும் மெதுவாக உள்ளது என்று சமூகத்தளங்களுக்கு மாறியுள்ளனர்... நாளை இதை விட வேகமாக இன்னொரு சேவை வரும். அப்போது... தலைப்பு மாறும். அவ்ளோதான்!!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#3366ff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;font

size="4" color="#009900"&gt;Murudeshwara is a popular pilgrimage and beach destination located in the Bhatkal Taluk of Uttara Kannada District, in the South Indian state of Karnataka. Bounded by the Arabian Sea on its three sides and the rolling hills of the Western Ghats, the coastal town of Murudeshwara lies in between Honnavara and Bhatkal, on National Highway 17.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" color="#009900"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" color="#009900"&gt;Murudeshwara town, earlier known by the name 'Mrideshwara', is named after the ancient Murudeshwara Temple of Lord Shiva. The ancient scriptures point to the existence of the town to the period of the Ramayana. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" color="#009900"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" color="#009900"&gt;As per legend, the Demon King Ravana brought Atma - Linga or Mahabaleshwara Linga from Kailasa Parvata but it was placed in Gokarna by Lord Ganesha. Ravana, in great anger, flung the other parts of the idol such as the casket, the lid, the string around the lingam and the covering cloth of the idol to Sajjeshwara, Guneshwara or Gunavanthe, Dhareswara and Kanduka Hill of Mrideshwara respectively. The lid took the form of Vamdev Linga, the thread as Tatpurusha Linga and the cloth became Aghora Linga or Mridesa Linga. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" color="#009900"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" color="#009900"&gt;Knowing about this incident from Lord Vayu, Lord Shiva, along with Goddess Parvathi and Lord Ganesha, visited these places and consecrated the lingas. He declared these lingas as his 'pancha-khshetras' and also that worshipping these idols can wash off the sins of the devotees and transcend them from the cyclical re-incarnation of the soul by attaining Moksha.  &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" color="#009900"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" color="#009900"&gt;'Mrideshwara' was later renamed as 'Murudeshwara' after the construction of the temple atop Kanduka Hill. Murudeshwara Temple is the chief attraction of the place with its 123 feet tall idol of Neelkanta or Lord Shiva and 249 feet high entrance tower, the Raja Gopura. Apart from being a pilgrimage destination, Murudeshwara is also known for the 'Murudeshwara Fort' located in its vicinity, which was renovated by Tipu Sultan. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" color="#009900"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" color="#009900"&gt;Murudeshwara has beaches and activities like swimming, snorkelling, boat rides, etc. Opportunities for trekking are available at Yana, towards the peaks of the Sahyadri ranges - Bhairaveshwara Shikhara and the Mohini Shikhara.

Wikipedia's Italian site came down once briefly in protest to an Internet censorship bill put forward by the Berlusconi government.

But some editors are so uneasy with the move that they have blacked out their own user profile pages or resigned their administrative rights on the site to protest. Some likened the site's decision to fighting censorship with censorship.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;One of the site's own "five pillars" of conduct says that Wikipedia "is written from a neutral point of view." The site strives to "avoid advocacy, and we characterise information and issues rather than debate them."&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales argues that the site can maintain neutrality in content even as it takes public positions on issues.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;"The encyclopaedia will always be neutral.

The protest is aimed at the Stop Online Piracy Act in the House and the Protect Intellectual Property Act under consideration in the Senate.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;"If passed, this legislation will harm the free and open Internet and bring about new tools for censorship of international websites inside the United States," the foundation said.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;Both bills are designed to crack down on sales of pirated American products overseas, and they have the support of the film and music industry. Among the opponents are many Internet companies such as Google, Facebook, Yahoo, Twitter, eBay and AOL. They say the bills would hurt the industry and infringe on free-speech rights.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;Social news website Reddit.com is shutting down for 12 hours on Wednesday, but most companies are staying up. Google said it will display its opposition to the bill on its home page in some fashion.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;Dick Costollo, CEO of Twitter, said he opposes the legislation as well, but shutting down the service was out of the question.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;"Closing a global business in reaction to single-issue national politics is foolish," Mr. Costollo tweeted.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;Since Wikimedia depends on a small army of volunteers who create and update articles, it's particularly concerned about a lack of exemptions in the bills for sites where users might contribute copyrighted content. Today, it has no obligation under U.S. law except removing that content if a copyright holder complains. But under the House version of the bill, it could be shut down unless it polices its own pages.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;The plans for the protest were moving forward even though the bill's prospects appeared to be dimming. On Saturday, Representative Darrell Issa, a California Democrat, said the bill would not move to the House floor for a vote unless consensus is reached. However, Lamar Smith, a Texas Republican, said work on the bill would resume next month.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;The White House raised concerns over the weekend, pledging to work with Congress to battle piracy and counterfeiting while defending free expression, privacy and innovation in the Internet. The administration signalled it might use its veto power, if necessary.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;That the bill seems unlikely to pass is another reason Lawton opposes the blackout.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;"I think there are far more important things for the organization to focus aside from legislation that isn't likely to pass anyway," he said. He's been contributing to Wikipedia for eight years.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;Danny Chia, another contributor to the site, said he had mixed feelings about the blackout. The neutrality applies to the content, but a lot of people interpret it as being about the site as a whole, said the Los Altos, California, software engineer.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;In an online discussion, others raised the same point about the blackout: Appearances matter, and if the audience sees Wikipedia taking a stand, it might not believe the articles are objective, either.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;Wikipedia has seen a small decline in participation, from a peak of 100,000 active editors a year ago to about 90,000 now. Wikimedia Foundation blames this mainly on outdated editing tools, and believes it can get the number growing again with software upgrades.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;Courtesy_&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace" size="4" style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" color="#ffffff"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.thehindu.com/sci-tech/internet/article2810633.ece?homepage=true"&gt;http://www.thehindu.com/sci-tech/internet/article2810633.ece?homepage=true&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2205733108784791021-3631567007662444234?l=snippetsaffairs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://snippetsaffairs.blogspot.com/feeds/3631567007662444234/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://snippetsaffairs.blogspot.com/2012/01/wiki-usa-tries-to-stop-free-and-open.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2205733108784791021/posts/default/3631567007662444234'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2205733108784791021/posts/default/3631567007662444234'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://snippetsaffairs.blogspot.com/2012/01/wiki-usa-tries-to-stop-free-and-open.html' title='Wiki: USA tries to stop the free and open Internet sources'/><author><name>Selvam</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14480553937816286351</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_c70ddy4JCqw/R8BRjoe9NvI/AAAAAAAACng/9VOjOo7HE1Q/S220/Siva+Kempfort.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-O4aSJp6LHwM/TxbEMsWc8JI/AAAAAAAAZpg/8i5PwxTSfUU/s72-c/wikiblack_jpg_896170f-782409.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205733108784791021.post-420965897976244019</id><published>2012-01-18T18:06:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2012-01-18T18:07:17.558+05:30</updated><title type='text'>What Bank IFSC Code stands for?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="gmail_quote"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana,sans-serif"&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Indian Financial System Code (IFSC).&lt;/b&gt; It is used for electronic payment applications like &lt;b&gt;Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS), National Electronic Funds Transfer (NEFT) and Centralised Funds Management System (CFMS)&lt;/b&gt; developed by&lt;b&gt;Reserve Bank of India (RBI).&lt;/b&gt; Code has eleven characters &amp;quot;Alpha Numeric&amp;quot; in nature.

receiving missed calls from international numbers, think twice before calling back, says telecom operator Vodafone. The operator has been witnessing cases wherein people get missed calls from international numbers and when the user calls back they are charged a huge sum for the call. A Vodafone representative said people in Uttar Pradesh were getting such calls yesterday and today people in Tamil Nadu are receiving these unsolicited calls on mobile phones. Vodafone said it is investigating the matter.&lt;br&gt;  &lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;Some Vodafone customers in Tamil Nadu have been receiving missed calls from international numbers lately. We would like to inform all our customers in Tamil Nadu that this issue has been brought to our notice and we are currently investigating the same,&amp;quot; Vodafone India said in a statement. The company has also asked its over 140 million subscribers in the country to ignore such calls.&lt;br&gt;  &lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;We would like to urge our customers to kindly ignore such calls and not call back on those numbers. In case a customer gets such a call, we request them to call the customer care and report the number to us,&amp;quot; it said. &amp;quot;We want to assure our customers that security is our highest priority. Vodafone takes the safety and security very seriously and we have invested considerable resources to continually evolve our system and improve security,&amp;quot; the statement added.&lt;br&gt;  &lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="color:rgb(255,0,0)"&gt;Courtesy_&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.newsbullet.in/india/34-more/23961-vodafone-warns-against-calls-from-international-numbers"&gt;http://www.newsbullet.in&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="color:rgb(255,0,0)"&gt;Also read the related stories in Dinamalar at:&lt;/span&gt;

This private port, located in the Union Territory of Puducherry, can serve nearby industrial belts such as Erode, Salem, Tiruppur and Trichy.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;Infrastructure and real estate player Marg Ltd is developing the Karaikal port. According to Mr G.R.K. Reddy, Chairman and Managing Director, Marg, the nearby industrial towns would be able to cut short their transportation by at least 150 km if they use the Karaikal port instead of the ports in Chennai and Tuticorin.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;"Customers can overall save up to Rs 700 per tonne by using the Karaikal port over the neighbouring ports," he said. "There will be an average saving of about Rs 300 per tonne on transportation alone if one considers the (distance) differential of 150 km between Karaikal port and the other two ports."&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;Besides, port efficiencies such as lower holding time of just about a day compared with 4-5 days of typical holding time in other ports, and stock variation of less than the standard norm of 1 per cent add to the cost savings of customers, said Mr Reddy.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#FF0000"&gt;Second phase&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;The port, which is currently operating two berths for coal and general cargo such as cement and fertiliser will have five more berths ready by October.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;This is part of the second phase of its expansion — costing Rs 1,569 crore — to create a capacity of 21 million tonnes of cargo per annum. Dredging of the harbour basin, along with construction of berths, is in full swing at the port. While the port&amp;#39;s draft will be increased to 16.5 m, the breakwater will be extended and the channel and turning circle will be widened to handle large vessels.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;The new berths will handle liquid and general cargo. Mr Reddy hopes to clock 17 million tonnes of cargo by FY-13, after the second phase of expansion. After the third and final phase, which is expected to be completed by FY-17, the port is envisaged to have nine berths capable of handling 47 MTPA. The port will be capable of handling all types of cargo such as dry bulk, break bulk, liquid bulk and containerised cargo in independent zones, he said. Karaikal Port had a year ago entered in to an agreement with Chennai Petroleum Corporation (CPCL) to allow the latter to put up a pipeline linking the port to the company&amp;#39;s pipeline.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;CPCL has a captive terminal at Nagapattinam to import crude and export refined products. They have a jetty, which is about 1 km into the sea. The refinery has been operating below capacity for want of crude oil. With this agreement, CPCL will be able to increase its capacity by bringing crude oil from the Krishna-Godavari basin.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;The pipeline link, according to Mr Reddy, has got environment clearance to be laid across the Vettar river and the project can be expected to be completed by June 2011.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;On apprehensions of local people about the environmental impact of laying the pipeline across the river, a port official said as the pipeline will be laid deep under the river bed, there was no cause of worry. This was also conveyed to the people of the locality, which has a small fishing harbour.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#FF0000"&gt;Nagore-Karaikal connection&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;According to Mr Reddy, Karaikal port could also see increased volumes once Karaikal city is linked by rail to Nagore. The port is currently linked to Nagore, which is about 3 km away.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;The rail link between Karaikal City and Nagore is being developed by Southern Railway. This link will connect Karaikal port with the cement, steel, chemical, aluminium, textile and other major manufacturing industries in Ariyalur, Trichy and Salem districts and the upcoming industrial nodes around Mayiladuthurai, enabling heavy freight movement in the near future.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;While there is a link from the port to the south, the new link will connect the northern belt.

In fact, among doctors, the region has earned the sobriquet 'stone belt&amp;#39; due to high incidence of kidney stone cases.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;Physicians argue that this unique pattern is due to the typical tropical climatic conditions prevalent in the region. And despite high incidence, awareness levels on treatment and preventive steps are less among public. "Public have to take simple measures to easily manage and avoid such a condition. Spreading awareness is important," feels associate professor, Nephrology Department, NIMS, Dr. R. Ram.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;Kidney stones are formed when urine contains too much of substances like calcium and oxalates. These substances combine to form crystals in kidneys. The small crystals, over a period of time, will form kidney stones, leading to complications like blocking the flow of urine from kidneys.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;The common symptoms of kidney stones include sudden severe pain in the groin and abdomen area, change in the urine colour and even blood in urine. "Kidney stone patients should have strict control of diet. Public will have to make sure that they take adequate amount of water daily," Dr. Ram Suggests.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;Roughly, per day, physicians suggest, public should take more than one litre of water to keep the body hydrated and kidney stones at bay. Doctors also assert that food items, having high concentration of oxalates, must be avoided because they mix with calcium to form crystals.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;Foods like spinach, cabbage and tomato are rich in oxalates and they should be avoided by patients. General public should make sure that the urine colour is always white, advises senior Nephrologist, Dr. Pradeeep Deshpande.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;On most occasions, small kidney stones will pass through urine. "Stones of less than one cm usually pass through urine.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;

line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;  AS reviews of Tintin&amp;#39;s newest filmic rendition pour in, it is clear that Steven Spielberg&amp;#39;s 3D version, The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn, has failed to cheer the vast legion of Tintin fans the world over. Estimates may vary, but more than 350 million comic books of Tintin have been sold to date, proving the series&amp;#39; lasting popularity. While responses to the film have been mixed, the disappointment is great when one pits Spielberg&amp;#39;s "motion capture animation" against the original "straight line" drawing that Hergé used for the Tintin comic books. The disappointment is even more intense for those Tintin fans who went seeking their childhood hero whose fantastic exploits continue to fascinate them even when they are grown up.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;In his review, Baradwaj Rangan, the film critic of The Hindu, writes: "In short, The Adventures of Tintin, with the hero and his cohorts on the trail of treasure from a sunken vessel, could just as easily have become an Indiana Jones movie: Raiders of the Lost Barque. And it has. This is more Spielberg&amp;#39;s Tintin than Hergé&amp;#39;s." Reviewing the film for &lt;a href="http://www.rediff.com"&gt;www.rediff.com&lt;/a&gt;, Raja Sen writes: "If I&amp;#39;d never read or loved or heard of Tintin before, I admittedly would not have been thus outraged (though I see no point in pretending to be ignorant or American) but even if Spielberg&amp;#39;s film was called The Adventures Of JackJack, it would be a forgettable standard-issue action romp. A few colourful characters, some visually lush backdrops, some ha-ha gags. Nothing offensively bad, but nothing special. But it is not called JackJack, and robbing Tintin of being special is as offensive as it gets."&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;This dismay with the filmic version is also a time to go back and understand Tintin better and to get a stronger sense of what made the boy reporter such a perennial hit. From the time the early Tintin stories began to be serialised in Le Petit Vingtième, a Belgian newspaper, the adventure comics became popular all over the world. Of the 24 graphic tales of Tintin that were produced, 21 are popular and are easily available across most bookstores in India. All the comics have been translated into several languages internationally, including Bengali and Hindi.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Hergé, a Belgian working in Brussels whose real name was Georges Remi, started working on the Tintin comic series in 1929. His first two works, Tintin in the Land of the Soviets (1930) and Tintin in the Congo (1931), bring out the world view of the young Hergé (he was 21 years old in 1929) and stand apart from his later works in their rawness. Even the style would surprise those who are used to his later works.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;These two works also easily invite criticism from contemporary readers – the plots are shaky, the characterisation is incomplete and colonial and anti-communist prejudices are liberally present. The Congolese are depicted as backward people who need the patronage of the "fatherland", Belgium (Congo was a Belgian colony at the time). But these works set out the premise and the main idea behind Tintin: he is a boy reporter with a quiff, who is gutsy and adventurous. He is a journalist and his faithful companion is a white fox terrier called Snowy. Almost asexual, he remains the intrepid fantasy of a young boy, with his masterly ability to crack cases and his resilient resistance of the most devious of dons.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;The short-book length comics that Tintin readers are used to begin with Tintin&amp;#39;s third adventure – Tintin in America (1932) – when the young reporter arrives in Chicago during the time of organised crime and the Great Depression. Hergé&amp;#39;s meticulous research was becoming evident now as he creates the underworld of Chicago. Al Capone, the legendary gangster, also features in this comic album.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;font size="1"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.frontlineonnet.com/images/20111216282508702.jpg" align="center" width="350" height="242" border="1"&gt; &lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;TINTIN AND HIS pet dog Snowy in Herg‚&amp;#39;s comic book.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Tintin continuously travels across the globe in his subsequent adventures. Advances in intercontinental transportation by the early decades of the 20th century obviously make Tintin&amp;#39;s job a lot easier. (It is ironic that Hergé himself never travelled to all the lands that he so vividly illustrates in his comics. It was only later, after the publication of several Tintin albums, that he sets out to see the world.)&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;After every adventure, Tintin returns to Brussels where he lives at 26 Labrador Road (in his later adventures one can also see Tintin living and working out of Marlinspike Hall) before setting out for his globe-trotting adventures. America is followed by Egypt and India in Cigars of the Pharoah (1934). India, of course, is depicted as a country of thick forests, fakirs and rajahs. Hergé followed this adventure with Tintin and the Blue Lotus (1936), which is set in China.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;With an awareness of the work of scholars such as Edward Said, who published his seminal work Orientalism in 1978, it is easier to understand the early work of Hergé. The author of Tintin was demonstrating the paradigm of his time in the way in which he understood the world outside Europe. The 1930s was a time of relative peace, considering that the Second World War was yet to envelope Europe, and epoch-changing ideas were still being discussed and formulated.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Hergé wrote Tintin&amp;#39;s adventure in China during that period, and we see a clear change in his depiction of the "Other". While he persists with insulting caricatures, he also meets a young Chinese man who helps him correct his oriental prejudices. We see a vast change in his work from then on even though he persists with some of his zealous caricaturing – of Jews, for instance, inviting allegations that he was anti-Semitic.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;The Chinese man whom he met would refigure in one of Hergé&amp;#39;s most liked works – Tintin in Tibet (1960). Hergé wrote this work when he was going through a traumatic period in his life and set it in snow so that it would reflect his current mental state. India also figures fleetingly in this volume. When Tintin and Captain Haddock travel to Kathmandu on their way to Tibet, they have an encounter with a "sacred cow" in a medieval-looking bazaar in New Delhi.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;font size="1"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.frontlineonnet.com/images/20111216282508703.jpg" align="center" width="350" height="187" border="1"&gt; &lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Tintin in the Spielberg movie.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;The mention of Captain Haddock should merit a slight digression into the supporting cast who accompany Tintin on several of his adventures. There is Captain Archibald Haddock, whom Tintin first meets in his ninth adventure – The Crab With the Golden Claws (1941) – and continues as Tintin&amp;#39;s constant companion in his subsequent tales. Two bumbling detectives – Thompson and Thomson – are a constant source of comedy and slapstick humour. An almost deaf scientist, Professor Cuthbert Calculus whom Tintin first encounters in his 12th adventure – Red Rackham&amp;#39;s Treasure (1944) – also adds to the general chaos at times.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;A host of other characters fleet in and out of the graphic tales: there is the Milanese nightingale, Bianca Castafiore; the typical South American caudillo, General Alcazar; and the well-natured but annoying insurance salesman, Jolyon Wagg. There are several Tintinologists (an informal term for people who study Tintin) who argue that Tintin is indeed great literature. One has only to look at the suspense-filled The Castafiore Emerald (1963) to see this.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Tom McCarthy, the British novelist, is one person who has argued strongly that Tintin indeed qualifies as literature, and of great quality at that. In his book Tintin and the Secret of Literature, he "shows the themes Tintin&amp;#39;s stories generate are the same that have fuelled and troubled writers from the classical era to the present day". His conclusion is that Tintin&amp;#39;s ultimate secret is that of literature itself.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Other studies by Tintin aficionados, such as Michael Farr, have tried to pick the stories apart in trying to interpret the themes by placing them in the context of Hergé&amp;#39;s life. Others, such as Jean-Marie Apostolides, have used their training in the social sciences to argue that Tintin was Hergé&amp;#39;s notion of a "superchild". But for most Tintin fans these arcane analyses do not hold too much meaning. It is Hergé&amp;#39;s world that they turn to when they need to enjoy a great story well told.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Tintin&amp;#39;s world is also reassuring for all those who are dismayed by the homogeneity that globalisation brings in its wake. Tintin&amp;#39;s world is modern, and sometimes flawed if seen in the politically correct eyes of our time, but it retains a childish fascination even after several decades.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;All of this should provide an idea of what Tintin means to many of his fans. Spielberg&amp;#39;s film takes too many liberties and strays far away when it tries to bring incidents from three of the volumes together.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;So while there are some scenes that are true to the comic book panels, Spielberg&amp;#39;s distinctive touch mars the experience. The well-known director discovered Tintin only as an adult when a review compared the Indiana Jones character to Tintin. If he had discovered him as a child, perhaps he would have remembered that there are some childhood memories that need to retain their innocence and that when they are retold in 3D they lose their novelty and become impure. That is exactly what has happened with Spielberg&amp;#39;s Tintin.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;Courtesy_&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px;

Yes it is 100% true..!&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.forwardedemails.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/electricity_through_flash_light.jpg" alt="Electricity through flash light"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This is a true incidence reported of a boy aged 19, who was studying in 1st year of engineering, who died in Keshvani Hospital, Mumbai. He was admitted in the Hospital as a burned patient. Reason ??????&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;This boy had gone to Amravati (a place located in State of Maharashtra ) on a study tour, on their return they were waiting at the railway station to catch the train. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Many of them started taking pictures of their friends using "Mobile Phones" and / or "Digital Camera". One of them complained that, he was unable to capture the full group of friends in one frame in the Digicam.&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This boy moved away to a distance to get the whole group.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;He failed to notice that at an angle above his head, 40,000 volts electrical line was passing through.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;As soon as he clicked the digital camera? 40,000 volt current passed through the camera flash light to his camera and then from his camera to his fingers &amp;amp; to his body. All this happened within a fraction of a second. His body was half burned.&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;They arranged for an ambulance &amp;amp; his burned body was brought to Keshavani Hospital, Mumbai.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For one &amp;amp; half days or so he was conscious &amp;amp; talking. Doctors did not have much hopes as there was a lot of complex issues in his body. He passed away later.&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now how many of us are aware about these technical threats &amp;amp; dangers? Even if we are, how many of us are adhering??&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now should we call ourselves as educated and knowledgeable people?&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;???????????????????????????????&lt;/div&gt;

color="#CC33CC"&gt;Chennai, Nov 22 (PTI):&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt; Two political parties in Tamil Nadu MDMK and PMK today demanded a ban on the release of Hollywood film &amp;#39;Dam 999&amp;#39; in the country, saying it depicts the scenario of the collapse of century-old Mullaiperiyar Dam over which the state is locked in a row with Kerala. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;MDMK leader Vaiko, in a statement, said the film, financed by Keralites, starring Indian and Hollywood actors and directed by Sohan Roy has been named &amp;#39;Dam 999&amp;#39; referring to the legal rights held by Tamil Nadu over the Mullaiperiyar dam for 999 years. Vaiko said he has appealed to the South Indian Film Chambers, Tamil Film Producers Council and the South Indian Artistes Association not to allow the screening of the film in Tamil Nadu. If cinema houses in the state screen the film, his party would organise demonstrations against it, he said. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" face="&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, monospace"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3366FF"&gt;PMK founder Dr S Ramadoss said the film was screened before the Supreme Court appointed expert committee, headed by retired judge Justice A S Anand, to back Kerala&amp;#39;s claim that the reservoir was unsafe and needs to be replaced. He urged Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa to take up the matter with the Centre. The dam, located in the Iddukki district of Kerala, is under the control of Tamil Nadu Government and meets the irrigation needs of farmers in southern districts bordering Kerala. While Kerala had proposed construction of a new dam to replace the old structure saying it posed a danager to the people living downstream, Tamil Nadu has been opposing the move. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Banerjee, who has a B.Tech in metallurgy from the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur and later earned a PhD in metallurgical engineering, asserted that "nuclear power will give the country long-term energy security."&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Excerpts from the interview:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;The Kudankulam issue seems to have reached a deadlock. Where do we go from here?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;The names on the experts&amp;#39; panel have been given by the DAE to the Tamil Nadu government. From the press, other media and websites, we have collected the questions raised by the local people. We have seen these questions and we are trying to answer them. If the DAE personnel themselves answer these questions, the protesters say, "We will not accept them and we want an independent opinion." It is in this context that the government has given a list of 15 experts, and we have identified their domain of knowledge and expertise. This will actually make it convenient for deliberations to focus on specific issues and try to find answers to them.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;We have identified specific subject areas such as how safe the plant is in case of a seismic event or when sea-water level rises by processes such as a tsunami, how the plant affects the livelihood of the people residing in the neighbourhood, and what the safety features of Kudankulam vis-a-vis some of the other VVER reactors are. You may be aware that we had negotiated with the Russians to provide additional safety features for the Kudankulam reactors.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;What are those safety features?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;I will come to that later. Then there is the question of radiation in the environment that is going to affect the people. There is yet another question about the discharge [of coolant water] into the sea. There are two kinds of apprehensions here – that the sea water will become hot and that it will become radioactive. For each of these, we have quantitative, well-founded and accurate answers. With these answers, we would like to explain to the people around [the plant] that we are not going to bring anything which is dangerous either to their lives or to their livelihood. All this is only for the benefit of the people around and elsewhere because 2,000 MWe of electricity will be generated from Kudankulam – 1 and 2 will feed the southern grid. Out of this 2,000 MWe, 925 MWe will go to Tamil Nadu and the rest to neighbouring States.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;font size="1"&gt;A. SHAIKMOHIDEEN &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.frontlineonnet.com/images/20111202282403302.jpg" align="center" width="500" height="237" border="1"&gt; &lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;A view of the two reactor units of the Kudankulam Nuclear Power Project.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;The State government will conduct the meetings. Our panel will answer the questions. If there are questions which need further studies, the experts on the panel will collect the questions and perhaps have a second session to answer them. So I don&amp;#39;t consider it a deadlock. Nothing has happened to call it a deadlock. There will always be an open discussion on points, and it is our responsibility and duty to satisfy the queries coming up in the minds of people. The best way [to go about this] is to organise an open meeting near Kudankulam. When talking specifically of the Kudankulam plant, there will be specific questions, and we can address each one of them. If people are unhappy or not satisfied, let us try to answer them again with facts and figures and all the tests that have been done, which are backed by a huge amount of information. Through that, we will be able to allay the people&amp;#39;s fears.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Some leaders of the PMANE insist that the work at the project should halt first and that the experts&amp;#39; panel can talk to people later to allay their fears.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Physically, the work has halted. But it is not advisable to do that. What exactly do they mean when they say the work should halt? The reactor has high-temperature systems, flowing coolant and high-voltage systems. So it is not a matter of switching off the whole thing and bringing it to a halt.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Whenever you have a coolant in circuit and you make it stagnant, then there is the possibility of some undue corrosion effect on some of the components. Obviously, this is not normally done. You always run the coolant and this requires the attention of technicians as well as the supporting people.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;So far as the progress of work is concerned, we were actually expecting to bring the criticality of the first unit by September or October after the fuel loading. We were just waiting for the fuel-loading clearance. So this has essentially been halted. There is no big dispute on this issue. If by halting you mean that not a single person should enter the plant, then we are allowing a major asset of the country to degrade, and this is not acceptable. Really speaking, as far as the programme of work is concerned, we have halted. People are unable to go inside [the plant]. We need several thousands of people to work inside during the last phase of the work. But we are unable even to enter the place. So this is the situation today. So I don&amp;#39;t see there is any real reason or real point of controversy on whether work has been halted or not. But you must run the essential facilities for the safety and long-term service of the equipment.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;In your opinion, why did the agitation erupt now when, as you said, you were so close to starting up the first reactor?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;I would say that it was a little unexpected because when you go in for a project, you have to have a cordial relationship with the people around. That cordial relationship existed all along. There was an excellent relationship with the people living around, and our engineers have been visiting them regularly and taking part in their social and educational programmes. We have actually been looking forward to further enriching our relationship with the people. Today, when we talk of this kind of a project, we expect the reactors to run for 40 to 60 years. So the relationship between people working inside the plant and those who live outside has to be excellent because it is a kind of social relationship. That had been achieved earlier. So, for me it was a big surprise that people around started agitating like this. I really do not know why this is happening.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;font size="1"&gt;A. SHAIKMOHIDEEN &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.frontlineonnet.com/images/20111202282403303.jpg" align="center" width="302" height="350" border="1"&gt; &lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;A demonstration against the nuclear power plant in Palayamkottai, 80 km from the project site, on November 5.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;  One of the reasons could be that people saw the Fukushima event and it has brought about a sense of fear that a nuclear accident may.… Fukushima happened against the background of a natural disaster. Maybe, 20,000 died [in the earthquake and tsunami] but not in the Fukushima [nuclear] accident. In the Fukushima accident, the radiation casualty is still none. Zero.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;In the Fukushima nuclear accident, are the casualty figures due to exposure to radiation really zero?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;  In Fukushima, the casualty due to radiation exposure is not there at all even today. The Fukushima reactors were 40-year-old vintage reactors. Not that they were unsafe. They could not stand the severity of the natural events, not one but two successive events – the earthquake and the tsunami. Even then, you would have noticed that all the reactors stopped at the first signal of the earthquake. So there was no nuclear fission energy release in these accidents. They were quite safe on that.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;The problem was because of hydrogen fire. Hydrogen got mixed with air. The removal of the decay heat [in the Fukushima reactors] was not possible because there was no power in the whole area and so no pumps operated. Decay heat means there is some radioactive substance in the reactor and it decays even after the reactor is shut down.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Today, reactors, particularly the VVER reactors, have a passive safety system, which does not need electricity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;The VVER-1000 reactors at Kudankulam have passive safety systems, do they not?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;These issues were addressed in Kudankulam long before Fukushima happened. It is possible for us to explain each of these points to the people in the simplest language to convince them that one need not worry.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;The second reason [for the agitation against the Kudankulam project] was that a drill had to be conducted, which was a requirement as per the Atomic Energy Regulatory Board [AERB]. That is, before you start up a reactor, you ensure that, in the remotest possibility of an accident, you should be able to evacuate the people from the nearby area. This exercise was being planned, which again caused undue fear among people.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;font size="1"&gt;A. SHAIKMOHIDEEN &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.frontlineonnet.com/images/20111202282403304.jpg" align="center" width="400" height="297" border="1"&gt; &lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;The containment dome of the second reactor building of the project seen through the barrel hole of the first reactor building. A December 2008 photograph.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;There was another event. When you reach standardisation, steam is produced. In the hot run, before the fuel is loaded, steam is created and is let out. Normally, the steam goes to the turbine to generate electricity. But here [in the hot run], it was let out. In the process, it created a noise which again was falsely understood by some people to be an accident. But it was a very normal operation. It could be yet another trigger point which caused fear.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Why was Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL) unaware that such a situation was building up?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;  The point is the situation did not build up in a gradual manner. There was no indication that there would be serious unrest around that area. There was no inkling of that. There is definitely an anti-nuclear lobby [at work]. It suddenly used the situation to organise a relay hunger strike, which amassed a large number of people to make a protest. We cannot go against people. It is not a question of shouting and counter-shouting. How can we do that? As a [government] department, we have to act in a responsible manner. We can only say that we are ready to answer any question. We are ready to meet everybody individually and explain the situation. We have all the facts and figures and [we can] explain these to them. That is where we stand. We can also remind people what damage they are doing [to the reactors] with this kind of action. When there was an anti-nuclear protest after the Chernobyl accident, some countries stopped their VVER reactors. After 10 years of inaction, they revived these reactors to make them operational. So imagine the economic loss, which is in terms of not only the years lost but the kilowatts of energy lost. The economic loss has to be seen in terms of development loss.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;We are an impoverished country in terms of power supply. Tamil Nadu today has a serious power shortage. Tamil Nadu is also a State which is aspiring for major industrial growth, which will happen only when there is power. Now you have 2,000 MWe ready for delivery. But a situation has been created which is not allowing this to happen. Basically, this is a step towards decelerating the economic growth process, the growth of livelihood of people and their quality of life. There was only limited employment in those areas. So it has to be seen that we are providing power, which is the most essential and important ingredient for economic and industrial growth.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;The leaders of the PMANE say that the DAE has not made public the environment impact assessment (EIA) and site selection reports of the first two units. It wants them to be made public. This seems to be an important demand.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;When the EIA assessment was done for Kudankulam 1 and 2 sometime in 1998 or 2001, there was no requirement for a public hearing. So it was not done for Kudankulam 1 and 2. Subsequently, public hearing was done in detail for Kudankulam 3, 4, 5 and 6, and there is no difficulty in sharing all this information because it is already available. If some more details are required, that is not a problem at all. So this is not at all an obstacle to explain the questions raised by the protesters. All this can be shown right away because much of it is already on the website. Whatever is not there can also be shared. These are not secret documents that cannot be shared.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;font size="1"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.frontlineonnet.com/images/20111202282403305.jpg" align="center" width="700" height="754" border="1"&gt;&lt;/center&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;But a very detailed EIA was done as per the normal DAE notification. Public hearing was conducted. Responses from the stakeholders were taken, the review of the appraisal committee of the Ministry of Environment and Forests was taken. Notification was done in 2006. So there is total transparency in the process in the latest condition.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;All this was discussed during [the public hearing] for 3 and 4. The entire site was cleared then. The site selection process continued over a long period of a decade or so. Only the State government offers the sites.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;The State government offers the sites?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;After it offers, you make a detailed investigation because you want to minimise the displacement of people. In this case [Kudankulam], there was no displacement issue because nobody was living there. Secondly, you take geotechnical information. You see the potential of an earthquake or a tsunami occurring there. Then you see the water level rise… at what level you should build your plant. The meteorological studies are done. It is a very extensive study. We did one more thing in 2001-02, which was not necessary. We did a thermal ecology study.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;About coolant water being let into the sea?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Yes. This is a very important issue. We cannot use European standards because the European sea temperature is low. Our average sea temperature being higher, we did our own study. To do that study in detail, we have the Board of Research in Nuclear Sciences. I was the BRNS Secretary when the study was done. We wanted an independent opinion. Seven or eight universities were given the job of doing thermal ecological studies. They periodically did the sample collection during all the seasons. Every two months, they did a survey of the area.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;They studied the sea temperature around Kudankulam?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;There was a study not only at Kudankulam but wherever nuclear power stations were already operating [in India]. The studies were done on the temperature rise in the outfall [in the sea] near Kalpakkam and Tarapur, and the river Kali near the Kaiga nuclear power station. They also collected samples to see what organisms, including microorganisms, were present in those areas because fish depend on them for food. So this extensive survey was done over a period of five years. They found that the maximum rise in the temperature by the coolant water being let into the sea could be kept at 7 {+0} Celsius. Since we have a very good mixing zone [in the sea], it does not reach that temperature. It is lower than that.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;It does not reach 7 &lt;sup&gt;0&lt;/sup&gt;C?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;It goes to a maximum of, in the worst months, 5-6 &lt;sup&gt;0&lt;/sup&gt;C. Not more than that. You also have a system of mixing in a zone with a diameter of 300 metres to 400 m where there will be a slight rise in the temperature. Slight, not much. So this has been ensured in the design. Plus a very expensive water-intake structure has been created. When you take the water from the sea, fish will come along with it. So there is a fish-return mechanism. When the water comes in, there is a mechanism by which all the fish can be returned to the sea. An interesting thing is that this [coolant water being let into the sea] is not new. Tamil Nadu has had nuclear power reactors at Kalpakkam for over 30 years. They know that in Kalpakkam or Tarapur, there has been no degradation in fish catch. The fish have not been harmed. That part is well understood. We can prove it. Again, I don&amp;#39;t see any reason why the fishermen around Kudankulam should feel that their livelihood will be affected.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;font size="1"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.frontlineonnet.com/images/20111202282403306.jpg" align="center" width="700" height="607" border="1"&gt;&lt;/center&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Another issue that is being raised is that the radiation level goes up significantly around a nuclear power station. This is absolutely unfounded. The natural average radiation value that you get anywhere is 2,400 millisievert [mSv] a year. That is the kind of dose in nature.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;But this average fluctuates considerably [from place to place]. I am talking of Kerala, where it is much higher. At Tarapur station, it is 2,413 mSv; 2,400 is from nature and there is an additional 13 mSv near the Tarapur Atomic Power Station. What is the AERB&amp;#39;s limit? A thousand above 2,400 is the AERB limit. At Narora [Atomic Power Station in Uttar Pradesh], it is 1.1. At Kaiga, it is 1.7.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;So it is just 2401.1 mSv at Narora?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Yes. If you go to Hyderabad, there is a much higher radiation level. So it is totally unfounded [that the radiation level around a nuclear power station is high]. The monitoring is done in a systematic and extensive manner. But if you take a flight from Delhi to Mumbai, you get a high radiation dose. If you take an X-ray or CAT scan, you get a tremendously higher radiation dose. Then you realise that it is an unfounded fear and if you keep saying this to people who have no access to information or knowledge, then it creates confusion. This misinformation [campaign] is most unfortunate.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;We have environment survey laboratories [in each nuclear power station]. They are reporting [the radiation doses] regularly to the AERB, which puts it on the website. These are transparent data, which are available. They can be verified by anybody. There is no issue on this. There was the issue raised about the waste.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;How do you manage the nuclear waste from the reactors?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt; In our case, the high-level waste [HLW] is in the spent fuel. In the Indian system, spent fuel is never just stored. It is reprocessed to get plutonium, and that plutonium is used in fast reactors. So we produce much less waste compared with countries that have a once-through fuel cycle. The spent fuel reprocessing set-up is not in Kudankulam. There is no plan for such a thing to be built there.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Kudankulam is only for reactors. Who is thinking of a reprocessing plant there? Reprocessing plants [will] come up in other places and they also do not create waste. We try to see that we get plutonium out of reprocessing and that plutonium is pushed into fast reactors.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Ultimately, there is a very small quantity of HLW. Since the quantity is very small, it can be converted into vitrified form – glass form – and it can be stored for a long time in a suitable geological repository. For short-term or intermediate storage, it can be kept in an underground vault, which is air cooled. This is how it is being maintained at Tarapur.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;I went there recently.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;You have seen how much empty space is there to keep it. At Kudankulam, there will be no issue about nuclear waste.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;People fear the storage of liquid waste. I have seen liquid waste being stored in underground tanks at the Kalpakkam Reprocessing Plant (KARP). Solid waste can be converted into glass. But how can this liquid waste be disposed of?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Even the liquid waste at KARP is reprocessed, and there is finally volume reduction. From there, it is converted into small-sized solid waste. There is no question of discharging anything into the sea. There may be some very small quantity, within the AERB&amp;#39;s or the IAEA&amp;#39;s [International Atomic Energy Agency] limit and only that is to be discharged. There are very, very stringent regulations not to release anything above the stipulated limit. So there is no question of discharging anything into the sea. If people think that we discharge our radioactive waste into the sea, anybody can detect it immediately. If we do that, we are committing a very serious offence. These are all just fears that have got into the minds of people.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Why have you postponed the decision to buy the EPR-1650 reactors for Jaitapur? French Industry Minister Eric Besson has quoted you as having said that India would import only reactors certified by its own authorities and that you now want Fukushima certification. What do you mean by Fukushima certification?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;It is called post-Fukushima certification. It means that if we experience any beyond-design-basis event, every system has to withstand it. Different stress tests are given. That is, you allow certain seismic waves to come in and see what components can withstand the seismicity. If there is a flood, you see where the equipment is and whether it will get flooded? These kinds of assessments need to be done for every piece of equipment in the whole plant area and then you can certify that they will withstand not only design-basis accidents but also beyond-the-design-basis accidents.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;We will not be buying the full reactors. We will be building them ourselves with some components from outside. We will have to get a complete certification first of all from the country of origin. These countries also have regulatory bodies which have to first say, "We have checked and these systems will withstand these kinds of extreme natural events." That is the prerequisite. Once we have that, our regulatory authorities will check on that. Plus the DAE and NPCIL will check whether everything is acceptable to us. This is called beyond-Fukushima certification because we have seen something happen in Fukushima and so we now have to see how plants will withstand each of these external events. We are waiting for that analysis to come and once it is released, we will be able to consider it.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;When is the Pressurised Water Reactor, which uses enriched uranium as fuel, on board India&amp;#39;s nuclear-powered submarine, Arihant, going critical?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;I was actually hoping that it would be started up by the end of this year, but I am told now that it will be commissioned in January or February 2012. Some things are yet to be settled.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;You are having problems at Kudankulam and Jaitapur. West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has said "no" to the Russian reactors coming up at Haripur in her State. There may be problems at Kovvada in Andhra Pradesh where imported reactors will be built. Are you looking for an alternative site to Haripur?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;Yes. We are looking for alternative sites. That is not an issue.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; "&gt;  How are you going to meet the target of 60,000 MWe of n
