APRIL FOOLS!!!!!!

As we are approaching April 2008, we need to remind
ourselves………… ……… …..!!!
APRIL FOOL

Most of us celebrate April fool day every year and
fool each other. But how many of us know the bitter
facts hidden behind it. It was around a thousand years
ago that

Spain was ruled by Muslims. And the Muslim power in
Spain was so strong that it couldn’t be destroyed. The
Christians of the west wished to wipe out Islam from
all parts of the world and they did succeed to quite
an extent. But when they tried to eliminate Islam in
Spain and conquer it, they failed. They tried several
times but never succeeded.

The unbelievers then sent their spies in Spain to
study the Muslims there and find out what was the
power they possessed and they found that their power
was TAQWA. The Muslims of Spain were not just Muslims
but they were practicing Islam. They not only read the
Quran but also acted upon it. When the Christians
found the power of the Muslims they started thinking
of strategies to break this power. So they started
sending alcohol and cigarettes to Spain free of cost.
This technique of the west worked out and it started
weakening the faith of the Muslims in particular the
young generation of Spain.

The result was that the Catholics of the west wiped
out Islam and conquered the entire
Spain bringing an end to the EIGHT HUNDRED LONG YEARS’
RULE OF THE MUSLIMS in Spain. The last fort of the
Muslims to fall was Grenada (Gharnatah), which was on
the 1st of April. From that year onwards, every year
they celebrate April fools day on the 1st of April,
celebrating the day, they made a fool of the Muslims.
They did not make a fool of the Muslim army at
Gharnatah only, but of the whole Muslim Ummah.
We, the Muslims, were fooled by the unbelievers. They
have a reason to celebrate April fool day, to keep up
the spirit.

Dear brothers and sisters, when we join in this
celebration, we do so out of ignorance. If we had
known about it, we would never have celebrated our own
downfall. So now, that we are aware of it, and now let
us promise that we shall never celebrate this day. We
should learn our lesson from the people of
Spain, and shall try to become practicing Muslims,
never to let anybody weaken our faith.
Please forward this message to as many Muslims as you
know. The more people you forward it to the greater
will be the reward from your Lord in this world and in
the life hereafter. Please try to do it before the 1st
of April, to create awareness that

WE ARE NOT FOOLS ANYMORE.

This image of Ganesha is bound to be familiar to anyone of Tamil origin; however, little is known to many about the fact that this is an image of the rock cut Karpaka Vinayakar Shrine at Pillayarpatti near Karaikkudi at one of the oldest Cave Temples (Rock Cut) temples of Tamilnadu. Pillayarpatti is situated between Pudukkottai and Karaikkudi. The nearest airport is at Tiruchirappalli. Chennai Rameswaram Express and Kamban Express travel to these two railheads.
The town of Pillaiyarpatti is named after ‘Pillayar’ – the tamil name for Ganesha, and this ancient temple houses rock cut images of Shiva, Lingodbhavar and others as well as several other shrines. Steeped in the tradition of Agamic textsthe temple bears testimony to the vibrant temple culture of the Tamil people, passed down through centuries.

Deities: Karpaka Vinayakar or Desi Vinayaka Pillaiyar is the presiding deity here, and he is portrayed with two arms and a trunk curled towards his right in the valampuri mode. This 6 feet tall mammoth image of Ganesha is a bas relief in an excavated cave, off of a hill in the precincts of the temple. Tiruveesar is a Shiva Lingam carved in a similar manner. Other deities in the temple include Marudankudi Eesar and his consort Vaadaamalar Mangai.

Antiquity: Over 15 inscriptions are found within the temple, that help establish the age of the temple. The Stalapuranam published by the temple classifies the growth of this temple into three distinct stages.
The first stage goes back in time by about 1600 years. During this period, the innermost rock cut shrines housing Karpaka Vinayakar and Tiruveesar came into being. The uniqueness of the image of Ganesha is one factor testifying this date; the characters used in the temple inscriptions also help establish this date. The pillars within the shrine are of pre-Pallava origin.

The Pallavas were prolific builders of rock cut temples (Mahabalipuram, Mahendravadi, Mamandur, Mandakapattu, Seeyamangalam, Namakkal, Tiruchi, Nartamalai, Kudumiyanmalai, Tirukkokarnam, Tirumeyyam, Peraiyur, Malayadipatti, Tirukolakkudi, Kunrakkudi etc.). A number of these can be traced to Mahendravarman I (615 – 630 AD) and Narasimhavarman I (630 – 668 AD). However, the inscriptions at Pillayarpatti date further back to the 4th century AD. Also, given the location of the temple in the Pandya kingdom it would only be logical to associate Pandya patronage to this temple, especially in the light of Pandya patronage at the Kazhugumalai temple not too far from here.

There are several inscriptions within this temple that date back to the period between 1091 AD and 1238 AD, making it apparent that the Pillayarpatti Nagarattar became the custodians of the temple during the 13th century AD during the second growth phase of this temple, when Vimanams and Rajagopurams were built.

The third phase of growth is much more recent and it involved the repair, rebuilding and refurbishment of the entire temple complex, including the renovation of the temple tank. The tank and the two Raja Gopurams provide an attractive approach to the temple, in this rather remote town of Pillayarpatti.

It is with great pride that the Pillayarpatti Nagarathar community which has been traditionally involved with the temple – patronizes maintenance of this temple and the scrupulous conduct of worship services.

Worship Protocol: Each day, five worship services are offered to the presiding deity, commencing at 6 AM , and closing down at 9 PM. During the fourth phase of each lunar half month, Pillayar is taken in procession around the temple. Hundreds of pilgrims patronize the temple on these days.

Festivals: The grandest of festivals is Ganesh Chaturti in the month of Aug – September, where a ten day celebration brings much gaiety to this temple town. Each day’s celebration is marked by much splendor as Pillayar is taken in procession around town on several of his mounts, as are the other Pancha Murthys. The ninth day of the festival is marked by a chariot procession. In addition, the ten day festival in the month of Vaikasi (May – June) is held in honor of Kongu Nachiyamman, a village deity whose processional image is also housed here. The Margazhi Tiruvadirai festival is celebrated in honor of Nataraja and Sivakami (Dec – Jan).

Nearby Attractions: Pudukkottai houses the Gokarneswarar Temple, and Kunnakkudi houses the hill temple of Shanmukhanathar.

A blood group or blood type is based on the presence or absence of two proteins (A, B) on the surface of red blood cells. Because two proteins are involved, there are four possible combinations or blood types (ABO groups):

· Type A – Only the A protein is present.

· Type B – Only the B protein is present.

· Type AB – Both proteins are present.

· Type O – Neither protein is present (about 40 percent of the population).

In addition to the A and B proteins, there is another protein involved called the Rh factor (Rh for Rhesus monkey, where it was first identified). The Rh factor is either present (+) or absent (-). Therefore, blood types are described as the type and Rh factor (such as O+ , A+, AB- ).

U.S. Blood-type Distribution

· O+
38 percent of population

· A+
34 percent of population

· B+
9 percent of population

· O-
7 percent of population

· A-
6 percent of population

· AB+
3 percent of population

· B-
2 percent of population

· AB-
1 percent of population

There are three forms of the gene (alleles) that control the ABO blood group, which are designated as iA, i B, and i. You have two alleles (one from your mother and one from your father), which are referred to as your genotype.

The inheritance of the alleles is co-dominant, meaning that if the allele is present, it gets expressed. The following genotypes will yield these blood types:

· iAiA or iAi – Both genotypes produce the A protein (type A).

· iBiB or iBi – Both genotypes produce the B protein (type B).

· iAiB – This genotype produces the A and B protein (type AB).

· ii – This genotype produces no protein (type O).

So, your blood type does not necessarily tell you exactly which alleles you have. For example, a person with blood type A could have either two iA alleles or one iA allele and one i allele. It is possible for two parents with the same blood type (A or B) to have a child with type O blood.

Both parents would have to have a mixed genotype, such as one i allele together with either one iA or one iB allele.

Blood types are determined by placing three drops of blood on a glass microscope slide. To one drop of blood, a drop of antibody solution to protein A (anti-A) is added. To the second drop, a drop of antibody solution to protein B is added.

To the third drop, a drop of antibody solution to Rh factor (anti-Rh) is added. The blood drops and antibody drops are mixed and examined for clumps of red blood cells, and the blood type is determined. Clumps mean that the particular protein (A, B, Rh) is present.

For example, clumps in anti-A and anti-Rh, but not anti-B, would indicate a person with type A+ blood.

Blood types are important for giving blood from one person to another (transfusion). The blood types must be matched. If not matched properly, the recipient will form clumps (clots) in response to the donor’s blood. The clots will lead to heart attacks, embolisms and strokes (transfusion reactions). Two blood types are special:

· Type O- is called the universal donor because it can be given to anybody; it has no protein to cause clumps.

· Type AB+ is the universal receiver because the recipient has all of the proteins and so will not form clumps.

Finally, the Rh factor is important for pregnant women. If an Rh+ man and an Rh- woman have a child, the child can be Rh+ or Rh-, depending upon the genotype of the father. If the baby is Rh+, this can cause problems.

While in the womb, some blood cells from the baby will cross the placenta into the mother’s blood stream. The mother will make antibodies to the Rh+ cells. If the woman becomes pregnant again and if the baby is Rh+, the mother’s anti-Rh antibodies will cross into the baby’s blood and destroy its red blood cells, which can kill the baby.

If diagnosed early, it is possible to save a baby under these circumstances by replacing the baby’s blood with transfusions that are free of the Rh antibodies. Also, if this situation is known, it is possible to treat a Rh- woman with anti-Rh antibodies (RhoGam) immediately after childbirth to inactivate the baby’s Rh+ cells and prevent the mother from forming anti-Rh antibodies (desensitize her).

Do you want to impress or confuse clients or Vice versa?…… …use
Techno vocabulary.. It can be called the “Buzzword” writing method. It
is simple.

There are three columns of words involved, as follows:

0. Balanced 0. Management 0. contingency
1. total 1. Organization 1. Hardware (or software)
2. integrated 2. reciprocal 2. projection
3. compatible 3. monitored 3. time-frame
4. synchronized 4.. digital 4. concept
5. optimal 5. modular 5. programming
6. responsive 6. transitional 6. mobility
7. functional 7. Incremental 7. capability
8. parallel 8. third-generation 8. flexibility
9. systemized 9. policy 9. options

Just select any three-digit number; then use the corresponding
Buzzwords from the above grid, e.g., 257: “integrated modular
capability”. Don’t worry if it doesn’t make sense to you; it won’t
mean anything to anyone else either, but they’ll think you’re just
smarter than they are so they won’t say anything!! .. You can propose
“systemized reciprocal options” (929) to achieve “optimal
transitional flexibility” (568), so that we can think of an
“integrated monitored projection” ………… ..and your boss will
probably promote you or your customer will be blown away with your
technological superiority .
