People use to say ringing the bell is to wake the lord but god never sleeps. Whether it might be the intimation to god that I have entered your place but god knows whatever we do then why we ring the bell. Actually bell is ringed in the temple during the poojas are done reason is while ringing the bell sound will be produced. ‘Om’ is the sound produced when we ring the bell. ‘Om’ is the universal name of the god. There should be auspiciousness within and without, to gain the vision of the lord who is all auspiciousness.

Even while doing the ritualistic aarati we will ring the bell. It is some time accompanied by the auspicious sounds of the conch and other musical instruments. An added significance of ringing the bell, conch and other musical instrument is that they help drowned any inauspicious or irrelevant noises and comment that might disturb or distract the worshippers in their devotional ardour, concentration and inner peace.

Smoking is banned from Thursday in various places like Hotels, restaurants, pubs, offices and even the international airport would be out of bounds to light up the rolled tobacco from Thursday with the ban on smoking in public places coming into effect.
The ban, the implementation of which is effective from Mahatma Gandhi’s birth anniversary, will cover even hookah bars and pubs as well as private offices and public places like bus stops.

Union Health Ministry issued a notification for the ban under the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products, prohibition of Advertisement and Regulation of Trade and Commerce, Production, Supply and Distribution Act 2003. The Centre, meanwhile, is also not ’so sure’ about the implementing agencies of the ban. While anybody can complain to authorities concerned if a person is found smoking, there is no hard and fast rule as to where the Rs 200rou fine would be deposited.

Dasara festival is celebrated with great pomp and happiness across Mysooru as well as across Karnataka.

So, here’s wishing everyone a very very happy Dussehra.
And friends, if you have not been to Mysooru for the dussehra, then you would better rush, as it is a place, where dassara festival takes place officially.

The second film from ‘Mungaru Male’ producer E.Krishnappa coming on the screen after a battle with the regional censor board with U/A certificate from Tribunal is good in some parts. The routine style of narration of teenage girls crossing limits and parents getting worried is out of date subject. Having four cases of teenage girls the director tries to hold a mirror to the society in an avant-garde style. The style of narration is not absorbing and it is easily imaginable. It is a freak out time for teenage girls and boys but highly tension ridden life for parents.

Director Shashank catches up with this and makes a prolonged narration. At drop of a hat everything is understandable today. For such atmosphere here there is no point in consuming more time. The home work of the director Shashank who directed ‘Sixer’ in the last year is not of high quality. The high quality he gets from cinematography and music department of course there are some pretty looking girls on screen.

Passing out SSLC girls Renuka Devi (Shuba Punj) and Chanchala (Radhika Pandit) join the Queens College for pre university study. After initials pranks from Sanjana (Sangeetha Shetty) and Deeksha (Manasi) the first year degree students all the four become thick friends.

Insistence on having a boy friend for Renuka and Chanchala although not acceptable is enforced in the film by the director Shashank with no social responsibility. After having a boy friend what is the state of affairs in life? It is ditching for Renuka Devi who commits suicide while Chanchala showing affection to singer Rahul (Yashas) withdraws from her decision at this stage to prosper in her studies. Facing the dejection is the situation of popular singer Rahul now. Rahul waits after a beating but in the end to get back Chanchala.

Radhika Pandit the newcomer is a treat to watch. She has the right ability and surely reaches the top spot. Shuba Punj in an innocent role is very attractive. Manasi and Sangeetha Shetty are cool in their roles. As the caring parents Achyuth Rao and Sudha Belawadi show good support. Master Kishen the child prodigy in a small role is attractive. Among the new boys Jedi Nagaraj has the perfect looks. Others are fit for supporting character roles. Sharan comedy is boring and senseless.

With the cool and winter months ahead, we can look forward to being outdoors, and enjoying some great climate. However, we also need to protect ourselves from mosquitoes, ticks, and other insects. With the West Nile virus scare, along with the general discomfort of mosquito bites, it’s important to protect our skin and stay as safe as possible. Here are some tips and recommendations to make sure you make it through mosquito season without any trouble!Make sure doors and windows have well-fitted screens. You may need to update your screens for the summer, but do make the effort to repair or replace holes and breaks. Getting bites overnight is not fun! Use mosquito repellant. There are a variety of repellants to choose from, but do be sure to do a test-run on a small patch of skin to make sure you are not allergic to any ingredients! Avoid wearing scented perfume. Mosquitoes are attracted to the sweet scent, and will also be attracted to you if you have fruit or sweet residue on your hands or clothing.Stay away from wet areas when mosquitoes are most active. The most active times are at dusk and dawn, so its best to stay out of dense, humid, and wet areas at these times when mosquito bites are almost guaranteed.
