Srilankan Batting Lineup Shatters

2009-06-21T07:43:00.001-07:00

The top order batsmans of the srilankan team are out for a low score as abdul razzaq and mohammed aamer shattered the batting lineup of srilanka in the finals of worldcup T20 held at Lords. After winning the toss, skipper sangakkara has decided to bat first. But the starting of the game was not as expected by him. Tilakaratne Dilshan the man of the match in semifinals against west indies had been caught by hasan on the excellent delivery bowled by Aamer in his first over. Losing the wicket of dilshan at zero runs, srilanka lost its second wicket at 2 runs. Abdul razzaq dismissed Mubarak, Jayasurya and jayawardane in successive overs. Srilankans are currently playing at a score of 44/4 at the end of 8 overs. I didn't expect this kind of a starting from the srilankan players.

With this scoring the result is almost favouring the pakistanian side. If kumar sangakkara whos is currently at the crease has showing some miracles, the score can boost up and the srilanka can give a tough job for Pakistan in the second half.

Srilanka in T20 Finals

2009-06-20T04:07:00.001-07:00

Srilanka has entered the world cup T20 finals in a stylish way. In the second semi – final held yesterday srilanka played against West Indies. Batted first the Srilankan players thrashed a score of 158 for 5 in 20 overs. Especially the opening partnership of Tilakaratne Dilshan and Sanath Jayasurya. Dilshan has exploded a score of unbeaten 96 in 57 balls with 12 fours and 2 sixes in it. Bravo has taken 2 wickets for 32 runs in his 3 overs. Taylor, Benn and Pollard took one wicket each.

The starting of West Indies was in trouble. Angelo Mathews struck thrice in his first over. Taking the wickets of Marshall, Simmons and Bravo he couldn't believe his eyes with stumps shattering for all three wickets. Except Chris Gayle all other players had score in single digit and laid the way for victory of srilankans. Srilankan's batting, bowling and fielding are up to the mark yesterday. Angelo Mathews and muralitharan took 3 wickets and udana, malinga took one wicket each. Dishan was named as man of the match for his unbeaten 96.

The Srilankans are taking off against Pakistan in final tomorrow. To remember the Pakistani's had entered the finals in last T20 world cup also. Asian countries are successively dominating T20 Cricket for the second time. Both the teams are tough sides and the final will be hotter and unpredictable than the previous games.

Happy B’day

3D Indiana – New evolution in technology

2008-06-20T06:53:00.001-07:00

The combination of the world of medical and engineering has produced a marvel which will revolutionize the approach of the doctors. A team of medical experts and engineers in Kerala have introduced a 3 dimensional virtual human body named as 3D Indiana which could replace cadavers in medical colleges. The 3D Indiana is an exact replica of our human body and resembles all tissues and organs in our body.

This project took more than 3 years to complete and fifteen professionals have worked together in bringing out this wonder. This simulation tool is considered better than the 1986 model developed in US called Visible Human Body Project. The application is completely user friendly and matches the human body in all respects. The model is carefully sculpted after complete research and study from various real time surgeries, scans and text books. All the doctors who had an opportunity to work with this software are extremely delighted and have rendered their support for this creation. Infact this virtual body will be more visible and accessible from a surgeon's point of view than a cadaver. The product will be very useful in performing robotic surgeries and will assist in precisely locating the position of the particular part or organ. The positioning system is based on the principle of 'volumetric anatomy' which uses three intersecting axes to locate the organ based on mathematical calculations. Even the smallest bone in the human body called stapes could be identified and operated upon using this model.

The virtual human model will pioneer new inventions and provide a conceptual platform for students and scientists to work on. The next development would be to introduce new pathogens into the virtual body and explore the possible treatment options. This invention is without a speckle of doubt is a landmark feat in the field of medicine and good times will follow soon.

Germany into the Quarter-finals

2008-06-19T05:31:00.001-07:00

Germany at last entered the quarter finals of euro cup 2008. Germany, Italy, France and Portugal are the four most expected teams of the Euro 2008 football cup. And just now the league matches are over and Germany had entered into quarter finals with lot more expectations. The senior players are suffering from injury and it seems to a pretty weaker team now. Tomorrow Germany meets Portugal which is a stronger team than Germany compared to this state. And Italy after a long struggle played with France yesterday and won the match at 2-0. Their goal keeper buffon is the key player of their team and France has lost to Italy consecutively for the second time.

Alternate For Petrol

2008-06-18T07:07:00.001-07:00

Wow.. They had found an alternate to petrol. It has been a headache to the ruling peoples of the countries all over the world on the gigantic hike of petroleum products, and now a barrel of crude is about us$140 and surveys says it can increase upto us$200. An alternate for petrol has been found by the Japan Company which uses cold water as the fuel for the car they had designed. The car can move at a speed of 80kmph for an input of one litre of water. This car haven't came to market yet. I hope this car will soon come for sale.

Stick cricket

Are you a cricket fan…? Them I'm sure you would like to play cricket in online. Just a few days before I came to know across this site and I'm amazed to see its graphical content. We do have different options like head2head, tournament, all star slog and world domination, the recently released IPL. All the options are really cool and we just have to chase a particular score in limited overs. We can't bowl in this game and the only thing is we have to chase. Stick cricket has latestly been integrated by AOl.in

Opera 9.5 launched

2008-06-18T01:18:00.001-07:00

The new HTC Touch Diamond phone has Opera Mobile 9.5 as the web browser which has attracted several people. The company believes that the Opera browser will do much better than Microsoft's internet explorer. Opera Mobile 9.5 gives you a browsing experience which is very close to browsing on your desktop.

Many believe that the browser has more features than the Safari browser used in iphones. The Safari browser was lauded initially but it had its own downside which had difficulty in downloading files and didn't support certain file types on the web. The new Opera mobile browser has the capability to display the full version of web pages rather than the compressed WAP pages. The browser allows you to zoom in and out by taping on the particular portion of the web page and lets you scroll up and down the page with the help of your fingers. It allows you to open new pages as tabs within a single browser window. The browser lets you store web pages enabling you to work off line and reduce your GPRS bills. It has inherent downloader software and enables you to cut and paste text from web pages to text editor. Some additional features are MMS and dialing any phone number on a web page.

Despite all these features the browser is not the fastest and it is designed for touch screen devices which run on Windows Mobile 6. We would have to wait and see whether it will be available for older model phones and symbian phones. This software is not a freeware unlike Opera Mini and is still not commercially available. This little genius could well be released in a few weeks time.

Currently I'm using this version of software in my mobile for browsing and its so coooooool to use.

Apple Launches 3G iphone

2008-06-18T01:06:00.001-07:00

Apple has unveiled its new brand of iphones which will work on third generation mobile technology. 3G technology will change the way we look at mobile phones. From high speed internet browsing, music, gaming and multimedia to real time true GPS data availability the Apple 3G iphones will be a big deal in the near future.

Apple has reduced the price of the equipment substantially relative to the 2G model phones but they will be available for sale only in Apple and AT&T outlets..These phones are the perfect blend of a phone, iPod and a fast internet device. The phone supports several features like MS Exchange, App Store and email services. The phone has the capability to get GPS information directly from the satellites and this information is very useful for routing and calculating the distances. The phone will be compatible for some third party applications and will also be available in white color this time.

As far as we in India are concerned things are looking bleak. The 3G auction has to be completed first and then the necessary infrastructure has to be developed. 3G phones bought from other countries will have most of their applications not working at all. Even the original 2G model iphones will be officially released in India by September only. Apple has signed a deal with Vodafone and Airtel to land in India smoothly. The Indians might feel left out of the technology race unless the government comes up with something special.

Billgates launches an alternate for mouse

2008-06-18T01:03:00.001-07:00

Microsoft Corporation is working on a system that will eliminate the usage of the computer mouse inorder to interact with the computer. The genius believes that the way we interact any electronic system will change radically over the next couple of years. Input devices like the keyboard and mouse will no longer be necessary to control your system.

The future computers will be equipped with voice recognition systems and touch sensitive screens making it more user-friendly and time conserving. All these new systems will be embedded in the Microsoft Windows 7 software which will be released in 2010. Windows 7 users can input commands to the system by touching the screen with their fingers rather than using the mouse or the keyboard which is the predominant practice since the seventies. Microsoft is keen on moving towards the touch screen technology after the success of the technology with Apple's iphones. The number of touch screen devices is going up day by day such as in mobile phones, satellite navigators, PDAs and in remote control. Recently Microsoft has also introduced a few touch screen products and also has successfully demonstrated the "Touchable Paint" application.

Both voice recognition and touch screen technologies require precision and accuracy which are complex to develop. But the technology has grown and capable to predict and detect the correct input and neglect the accidental ones. For a person like me who types at the speed of a snail these advancements will be more than useful.

Finally Gujjar’s Problem comes to an end

2008-06-18T00:54:00.001-07:00

At last gujjar agitation had came to an end in Rajasthan. In Rajasthan gujjar caste people are in second minority in population and they are asking government of Rajasthan to move them to tribal caste so that they can acquire all the privileges given to tribal castes. But they aren't worth for it and so Rajasthan government hesitated to give the privilege for them. The gujjars started this problem on looking on the general elections that's forthcoming in Indian constituency and their agitation had gone further like blocking roads and railway lines, burning all the government properties like buses, cars and autos. For the past one month this problem has been a headache for the government of Rajasthan and at last today they have come for an agreement with the gujjar leaders. Many trains have been diverted and about 30 to 40 trains had been stopped on regarding this issue. Now the problem has come to an end and I hope people of rajasthan will live peacefully.

Finally viewed IPL match

2008-05-28T21:59:00.000-07:00

After a long struggle, and in between my exam tensions,i went for the ipl match between Banglore and chennai in M.A Chitambaram Stadium,chennai. The match held was an important match because that was the important match for chennai super kings to enter into the semi finals because the forthcoming matches are against Rajasthan and Hydrebad which are pretty stronger than chennai. We went with a lot of expectations, but Dhoni Lost the toss and dravid elected to bat. The bowlers of CSK did a very good job by controlling them to 126 in 20 overs and it was a very easy total to chase in 20 overs.
During the chasing part of chennai, the opening gave by fleming and patel was excellent. they scored 40 runs in 4 overs,scoring at a run rate of 10 per over.but things changed after dravid brought kumble into the attack.and the batting order was also changed fully. the CSK men are pretty over confident and they end up with 116 in 20 overs scoring only 70+ runs in the remaining 16 overs.we went with a lot of ex[ectations but all failed.only about 4 sixes were hit in that batting track. dravid's men flourished with victory and kumble was awarded man of the match for his dacent spell of 14 runs in 4 overs.
