This magnificent array of waterfalls is located in Southern Brasil in the state of Parana on the border between Argentina and Brasil. They stretch for 2.5 miles plunging 269 feet (82m) into Iguaçu River. They are absolutely “deslumbrante.” Numerous rocky and wooded islands on the edge of the escarpment over which the Iguaçu River plunges divide the falls into some 275 separate waterfalls or cataracts. The name of the falls comes from the Guarani Indian word meaning “great water.” In 1986 Iguacu Falls were declared a Natural Heritage of Mankind by Unesco. The vegetation of the region is rich and varied, ranging from semideciduous to tropical. Contrasts are also abundant, with orchids growing next to pines, bamboos next to palm trees, and mosses next to lianas and colorful begonias.

640GB Flash based Hard Drive
640GB Flash Hard Drive For a Paltry $19,000
Sure, it costs $30 a GB, but Fusion-io’s new ioDrive flash card promises ridiculous 800MB/sec (Read) and 600MB/sec (Write) sustained data transfer rates. That would mean performance on par with DRAM, which would be about a thousand times faster than any existing disk drive. Basically, it’s like packing an enterprise SAN into a PCI express card. However, if $19,000 is a little too rich for your blood, you could always settle for a 80GB, 160GB, or 320GB when the ioDrive is released in Q1 2008. 80GB for $2400? Now, that’s value.

Trisha like to act the role of Ramya Krishnan in Padayappa
Trisha, the leading south Indian actress, usually doesn’t like to appear for one song or doing a cameo in a film. But she has accepted to do so in ‘Vellithirai’, as a friendly gesture. She does this for the sake of her friendship with Prakash Raj.
In ‘Vellithirai’, she acts her real self. She appears as Trisha, whom the hero Prithviraj, a director as per the story, meets to narrate a story. However, she fears that others would ask her to do cameo in their films.
While Trisha doesn’t like to do cameo roles, there is a role which she loves to do. She has revealed that she wants to do a role like the one done by Ramya Krishnan in superstar Rajinikanth’s ‘Padayappa’. Like many actresses, Trisha too considers the role as her dream role.
Is any director ready to offer her such a role?

After the success of Billa, attempts to remake old hits have become the latest fad in the industry. Discussions are on at various levels to choose the right film which will have a contemporary feel and Kadiresan, producer of Polladavan has obtained the remake rights of super star’s Moondru Mugam which was a blockbuster hit during those times.
Now he is in the process of choosing the correct hero for the new venture and is considering Ajith and Vikram.
Currently Kadiresan is producing a film with Dhanush and Vetrimaran and after this venture gets completed, the project of Moondru Mugam will commence if he gets the call sheet of any one of these actors.
