Rani Mukerji (Bengali: র া ণ ী ম ু খ া র ্ জ ী ) born on March 21, 1978, is an Indian film actress who works in Bollywood movies.

Making her acting debut with Raja Ki Aayegi Baraat (1996), Mukerji had her first commercial success with Karan Johar`s romance Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998), her biggest hit so far, and won a Filmfare Best Supporting Actress Award for her performance in the film. She later starred in many films, most of which fared below expectations. She re-invented her image with Saathiya (2002), which was commercially and critically successful.

Obama Tempers Good Economic News With Caution Sunday, 1 November 2009 - 8:17 PM SL Time
 
(WASHINGTON) President Barack Obama on Saturday tempered excitement about a growing economy with a sober outlook that more people will lose their jobs. He called that a heartbreaking reality and cautioned that even a burst of upbeat news `does not mean there won`t be difficult days ahead.`

Obama`s straddle served to set expectations for a nation emerging from recession but anxious for an economic security that has not nearly returned.

Dhoni and the No. 5 slot Saturday, 31 October 2009 - 9:08 PM SL Time
 
refer to


No. 3, No. 4, No. 5, or No. 6? Plenty of opinions have been pouring forth on which batting position is the best one for India`s captain, MS Dhoni. Many former players have suggested the one-drop position, since he has been India`s best batsman this year and the No. 3 slot will allow him the chance to play the maximum number of overs. Dhoni has steadfastly stuck to his belief that Gautam Gambhir and Yuvraj Singh are best suited to come in immediately after the openers, and has chosen to push himself up the order only if either or both of those players aren`t available.

Death bowling a worry for Australia Thursday, 29 October 2009 - 7:34 PM SL Time
 
Australia in India 2009-10

After two matches in the series, the Indian fast bowlers can breathe easier with the spotlight shifting to their Australian counterparts. If India`s fast men were the weak link going into the series, the death overs have indeed spelt doom for the Australian quicks now.

MS Dhoni and Suresh Raina took 108 in the last 10 overs in Nagpur - Australia`s worst showing since 1999 - and the 82 conceded in the last eight overs in the previous match in Vadodara was their sixth-worst.

Obama Signs Defense, Hate Crimes Bill Thursday, 29 October 2009 - 2:24 AM SL Time
 
(WASHINGTON) Trumpeting a victory against careless spending, President Barack Obama on Wednesday signed a defense bill that kills some costly weapons projects and expands war efforts. In a major civil rights change, the law also makes it a federal hate crime to assault people based on sexual orientation.

The $680 billion policy bill authorizespending but doesn`t provide any actual dollars. Rather it sets guidance that is typically followed by congressional committees that decide appropriations. Obama hailed it as a step toward ending needless military spending that he called `an affront to the American people and to our troops.` Still, the president did not win every fiscal fight. He acknowledged he was putting his name to a bill that still had waste.

What Are the Dangers of Drilling for Natural Gas? Thursday, 29 October 2009 - 1:40 AM SL Time
 
New York`s recently released review of the environmental risks (PDF) posed by natural gas production in the Marcellus shale offers the clearest picture yet of the chemicals used in the drilling process called hydraulic fracturing.

The document makes public the names of 260 chemicals, more than eight times as many as Pennsylvania state regulators have compiled. The list is the most complete released by any state or federal agency and could help answer concerns about hydraulic fracturing in Congress and in states where gas drilling has increased in recent years.

Waiting for the Vaccine: Scenes from an H1N1 Emergency Tuesday, 27 October 2009 - 11:54 PM SL Time
 
Shortly before 9 a.m. last Saturday, more than 400 people waited in line outside the Balboa Sports Complex in Encino, Calif., anxious to enter one of several Los Angeles County Public Health clinics offering free H1N1 vaccines to those considered high-risk. The first person in line had arrived at midnight, while many others had assembled well before dawn to ensure they would get the vaccine when the clinic doors opened at 9. Over the next several weeks, the county will distribute the 300,000 doses of H1N1 vaccine it received out of the 1.3 million doses sent to California by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). However, Dr. Jonathan Fielding, director of public health and health officer for Los Angeles County, says the county will need at least 5.5 million doses to cover those in high-risk categories for flu-related complications.

How Skype Is Changing the Job Interview Tuesday, 20 October 2009 - 12:17 PM SL Time
 
Get ready for a closeup: your next job interview might be on webcam. Looking to save time and money, companies are turning to video-chat software as a cheap, low-hassle way to vet job candidates. That means a growing number of people looking for work are meeting their prospective new bosses not at the office but in the comfort of their own home.

Naturally, the transition from in-person to online isn`t without its hiccups. Fuzzy transmissions, dropped calls (especially on wireless networks) and unusual disruptions are all par for the course. Tip No. 1: Get your dog out of barking range before you start the interview. (We`ll return to the pointers in a bit.)

7 Star Hotel for Arugam Bay planned? Monday, 19 October 2009 - 6:18 PM SL Time
 
By Dhananjani Silva

The dawn of peace in the north east region has given people an opportunity to freely move around in these once war- ravaged parts of the island.

With the end of war, a major change in tourism will take place. There will be a natural influx of people to the country and Sri Lanka will not only become a tourist destination but it will be a place, for instance, like Hawaii or Penang island where people will come and build houses or have apartments, said Prasanna W. Jayewardene, a pioneer in the hotel industry. One of his latest initiatives is a massive hotel development project islandwide including in the north and east.

How to Get More Bicyclists on the Road Monday, 19 October 2009 - 3:51 PM SL Time
 
Getting people out of cars and onto bicycles, a much more sustainable form of transportation, has long vexed environmentally conscious city planners. Although bike lanes painted on streets and automobile-free greenways have increased ridership over the past few years, the share of people relying on bikes for transportation is still less than 2 percent, based on various studies. An emerging body of research suggests that a superior strategy to increase pedal pushing could be had by asking the perennial question: What do women want?

A Florida Medical School`s Effort to Boost Primary Care Sunday, 18 October 2009 - 6:40 PM SL Time
 
When Patricio Lau came to the U.S. from Nicaragua eight years ago as a teenager, it didn`t take him long to notice one of his new home`s more glaring paradoxes. Despite the country`s vast wealth and medical resources, the working-class Miami neighborhood where his family settled had scant access to family physicians and most people saw a doctor only when a costly emergency hit. To Lau, it didn`t seem much different from the situation back in his impoverished Nicaraguan hometown of Chinandega. `Miami has a lot of problems, but the biggest is that too many people don`t get primary medical care,` says Lau, now 23. `There`s a bit of a mind-set that being a doctor here means taking care of pretty people on pretty beaches.`
