Madurai

It is narrated in legend that Madurai was originally a forest known as Kadambavanam. One day, a farmer named Dhananjaya who was passing through the forest, saw Indra (The king of the gods), worshipping a swayambhu (self created Lingam ) under kadamba tree. Dhananjaya, the farmer immediately reported this to King Kulasekara Pandya. Kulasekara Pandya cleared the forest and built a temple around the Lingam. A city was soon planned with the temple as its centre. On the day the city was to be named, Lord Shiva is said to have appeared and drops of nectar from his hair fell on the town. So, the place was named Madurai - mathuram meaning "sweetness" in Tamil.

Turbo - The snail with speed!

Written By Unknown on Saturday 20 July 2013 | 07:55



David Soren introduces Turbo a.k.a Theo, the garden snail.

Produced by DreamWorks Animation and distributed by 20th Century Fox The 3D computer-animated sports comedy film, revolves around the snail, who dreams big of becoming a great racer in the world, just like his hero Guy Gayne, the 5 times Indianapolis 500 champ.

Unlike other snails, Turbo is obsessed with speed and wants to get out of the slow life of the snail community. He becomes a constant embarrassment to his careful older brother, Chet Things take a turn, when in an accident, he gets sucked into a supercharger of a drag racer, fusing his DNA with nitrous oxide on a Street Race. He suddenly gets a lot of power of speed and accuracy. Not just that, to give the animation film a true touch of the genre, he gets the characteristics of a car, where his eyes turn in headlights and a shell that blinks red like taillights and makes car sounds and music from a radio.

This is when Tito, a "Dos Bros" taco truck driver spots Chet and Turbo and gets them for a race with other snails. Impressed by snail leader Whiplash, he is accompanied by the rest of his crew Smoove Move, Burn, Skidmark, and White Shadow. Turbo is on his way to fulfill his dream.

Written by David Soren, Robert Siegel and Darren Lemke, the film stars Ryan Reynolds, Paul Giamatti, Michael Pena, Snoop Dogg and Maya Rudolph, amongst the others.
