Cricket World Cup Theme Song - De Ghumaa Ke

There will be a touch of Bollywood in next year's cricket World Cup in the sub-continent with the celebrated Indian musical trio of Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy composing the event's official theme song titled 'De Ghumaa Ke' with versions in Hindi, Bangla and Sinhalese.

All three versions will feature in the build-up to and during the tournament that will run from February 19 to April 2 in India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh.

The three are one of the most popular and critically acclaimed music directors of Bollywood.

Some of their famous works includes scores for movies such as Dil Chahta Hai (2001), Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003), Bunty Aur Babli (2005), Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006), Don - The Chase Begins Again (2006), Taare Zameen Par (2007), Rock on!! (2008), Wake Up Sid (2009), My Name is Khan (2010) and Housefull (2010).

"De Ghumaa Ke" is a passionate expression that creatively captures the fierce sense of competition and the desire to win. It literally means Hit It Hard. This local cricket euphemism is every fan's wish and every cricketer's intention. It encapsulates all that it takes to win a match," the ICC said in a statement.

The song will be released on December 31 via various radio networks in India and also on ESPN STAR Sports, the ICC's global production and broadcast rights holder.

England retains Ashes with emphatic 4th Test win


England has retained the Ashes in emphatic fashion by completing an innings and 157—run win over Australia on Wednesday in the fourth Test.

England retained the Ashes for the first time on Australian soil since 1986—87. It travels to the final Test in Sydney starting Sunday with a 2—1 series lead, but as the Ashes-holder, England needs only to draw the series to keep the urn.

Tim Bresnan claimed the final wicket and his fourth of the innings when Ben Hilfenhaus was caught behind for a duck to dismiss Australia for 258. Last batsman Ryan Harris could not bat due to a foot injury.

Brad Haddin and Peter Siddle shared an 86—run eighth—innings partnership, but that only delayed the inevitable. Haddin ended the match on an unbeaten 55.

Australia’s loss looked inevitable from day one when it was dismissed for a paltry 98 in two rain—shortened sessions on the first day. A capitulation became inevitable early on the third day when England replied with a first—innings total of 513 for a massive 415—run lead.

Bresnan claimed the vital wickets of Shane Watson, Ricky Ponting and Michael Hussey after tea on Tuesday to become the architect of yet another poor Australian batting performance.

Bresnan, who replaced Steven Finn in England’s bowling attack for the fourth Test, ended the innings with figures of 4—50. Tremlett had 1—71, Anderson had 1—71 and Swan finished with 2—59.

Shane Watson provided Australia’s second highest score of the match with 54, while the England line-up featured knocks of 168 from Jonathan Trott, 85 from Matt Prior and 82 by Alastair Cook, proving the MCG wicket had plenty to offer the batsmen.

Siddle’s bowling provided the only highlight for the Australians, taking 6—75. Johnson, who took 9 wickets in Australia’s 267—run win at Perth in the third Test, was far less effective in Melbourne, conceding 134 runs for his two wickets.

Australia captain Ponting’s future has come under intense scrutiny in the light of the series loss, his failure with the bat, a finger injury and his unseemly remonstrations with the on—field umpires on Monday after having a reviewed decision ruled not out.

Start a YouTube Video at any Specific Time

Do you want to share the most interesting part of a YouTube video with your contacts without wasting their time?


YouTube URLs have long supported the “time” parameter that lets you link directly to any specific time of a video. For example, if you open the following YouTube URL in your browser, the video playback will start at the 1 minute 22 second mark and not from the beginning.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=tUIuTkjY#t=1m22s
What has changed then? Earlier you had to add the “t” parameter to YouTube URLs manually but now you may do that more easily using the contextual menu itself.

While watching a video on YouTube, just right click anywhere inside the video player and select the option that says “Copy Video URL at Current Time” – the copied URL will now include the “t” parameter pointing to the current location of the video.

This however won’t work with YouTube short URLs (like youtu.be/tUIuTkjY#t=1m22s) and, though you can specify any start time, there’s currently no way to end the YouTube video playback at a certain time.

Pathan leads India to five-wicket win over New Zealand in 4th ODI


Just a day after Gautam Gambhir said that Yusuf Pathan deserves more opportunities to express himself, the Baroda big-hitter lived up to the Indian skipper's faith.

Yusuf tided past a rain-interruption and made a mockery of an inflationary required-rate while his unbeaten 123 paved the way for India's five-wicket victory over New Zealand in the fourth One Day International of the five-match series at the Chinnaswamy Stadium here on Tuesday night.

Chasing New Zealand's 315 for seven in 50 overs, India finished with 321 for five in 48.5 overs to extend its series-lead to 4-0.

The pursuit was never easy after the law of averages caught up with Gambhir (27) and Virat Kohli. Briefly the Delhi-duo's dismissals seemed a minor aberration as Parthiv Patel (53) biffed around and Yuvraj Singh effortlessly hoisted Scott Styris.

Twin blow
India though suffered another twin-blow when Patel got ambitious and Yuvraj crunched a pull straight to short mid-wicket with Nathan McCullum being the grateful bowler.

Rohit Sharma, who replaced Murali Vijay in the eleven, then played with his customary elan and whetted his appetite with sixes off McCullum and New Zealand captain Daniel Vettori.

Rohit (44) slotted the higher gears while Yusuf (123 n.o., 96b, 7x4, 7x6) preferred the supporting role until he revealed his blistering self with a mighty strike against Vettori.

True to his past of frittering away brisk starts, Rohit scooped Tim Southee straight to Vettori and just as Yusuf and Saurabh Tiwary were settling down, the match was grounded under a wet curtain.

The rain-stoppage lasted an hour but once play resumed with no reduction in overs, Yusuf muscled Vettori over the ropes and struck a massive six off Kyle Mills.

During the batting Power Play from overs 39-43, Yusuf briefly remained tentative against the seamers before he kept the fans in the upper tiers interested with mighty blows against Mills in an over that went for 21 runs.

Tiwary chips in
The tide had turned and an Indian victory seemed as inevitable as Yusuf's maiden ODI hundred that was ushered in with a swat off Andy McKay. In the match-winning unbeaten sixth-wicket partnership of 133 runs, Tiwary too found his voice towards the end.

Earlier, James Franklin's unbeaten 98 (69b, 12x4, 3x6) added flourish to New Zealand's steady tenure at the crease after Gambhir opted to field under overcast skies. Franklin's personal best in limited overs cricket was etched with shots straight down the park and his deft wrists often worked the ball into the gaps.

Walking in at 170 for four in 29.4 overs with Ross Taylor for company, Franklin continued unhindered despite edging a four in the initial minutes against part-timer Rohit.

Taylor (44) cut out the risks and put his hoick past mid-wicket in cold-storage and shockingly for New Zealand, he was out first ball of the batting Power Play taken from the 38th over. In trying to flick Ashwin, Taylor missed the line and the final thrust firmly rested on Franklin and he readily complied.

Cutting loose

The southpaw cut Yusuf (three for 48), square drove Zaheer Khan and lofted Ashish Nehra. Franklin survived a scare on 47 when he spooned a leading-edge but a diving Yusuf faltered. He then nervously reached his fifty, second in ODIs, as he chipped one over a scampering Yusuf at short covers.

Franklin then cut loose with the high-point being the 21 runs he plundered in the final over bowled by Nehra with a stirring sequence of 6, 6, 4, 4 and 1 to help New Zealand dream about a much-awaited victory.

Before Franklin soared, the visitor's innings was blotted by batsmen, ranging from Brendon McCullum (42) to Styris (46), who flattered to deceive against an Indian attack that failed to impose pressure.

France & USA To ban Wikileaks from their servers.

Internet addresses written in Arabic were live on the Internet on Thursday

Earlier talk of giving President Obama the power to shut down the Internet has apparently happened. The U.S. based Internet domain registrar EveryDNS.net has denied Wikileaks the use of the domain .org, widely used by non-profit groups.

Anti-war.com said the domain was effectively shut down because the Wikileaks site had become the victim of attacks. If that is true it means that all that is necessary to do to remove an annoying Web site is to attack it.

Anti-war and others are continuing to provide updated lists of locations where the whistleblower can be found.

This is probably the biggest attack on the Internet since it became a worldwide business, leisure and household tool. Even China didn't try to shut down domains.

The U.S. isn't the only government to attack Wikileaks. France has said it will ban Wikileaks from its servers.

Given the determination of Wikileaks it seems likely they would result to graffiti on city buildings if necessary. The attacks also are drawing support from others for the group of cyberhackers who believe governments have been lying to their people for decades. Some would compare it to non-Jews wearing the Star of David during Nazi roundups.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation, a group that advocates for freedom of speech on the Internet, noted that the U.S. Constitution does bar "prior restraint," meaning any legal action against someone for publishing something offensive has to come after the act.

EFF noted that Amazon, one of the largest Internet businesses in the world, terminated Wikileaks' use of its servers after U.S. Sen. Joe LiebermanJoe Lieberman's office called them. Lieberman was the first major figure to urge that the U.S. administration be able to black out the Internet during a crisis.

The Obama Administration can argue that it was not involved in the U.S. registrar's decision.

35 Pakistani government websites hacked


At least 35 government websites in Pakistan were attacked Today by a group calling itself the "Army of Cyber India," said a report by the media.
Islamabad: At least 35 government websites in Pakistan were attacked Tuesday by a group calling itself the "Army of Cyber India," said a report by the media.

The government took steps to secure web sites hacked and most of them were restored by the afternoon, an official spokesman quoted by the online news agency.

Among the sites that were attacked was that of the National Accountability (NAB).

A message sent by the hackers - who claimed to have had access to the server hosting the websites of the government - read: "Hacked by Cyber Indian Army."

He was accompanied by a photograph of U.S. soldiers raising a flag on the Japanese island of Iwo Jima during World War II, but the flag of the United States became digitally on the national flag of India.

3rd ODI: Ton-up Gambhir wins India series


Skipper Gautam Gambhir cracked an unbeaten 126, his second century on the trot, to power India to a series-clinching nine-wicket victory over New Zealand in the third ODI here on Saturday.

The Delhi left-hander played a captain's knock that followed his match-winning unbeaten 138 in the second ODI in Jaipur on December 1 as India easily chased down the target of 225 in 39.3 overs to take an unassailable 3-0 lead in the five-match series.

Gambhir, who smashed 16 boundaries with his flicks and drives in the 117 balls he faced, put on 115 runs for the opening wicket with Murali Vijay who made a slow 30 in 50 balls before being run out.

The solid foundation laid by Gambhir, who notched up his ninth ODI hundred in 103 matches, with Vijay was carried forward by number three Virat Kohli, who continued his form from where he left in the previous two matches.

Kohli, who had scored a match-winning ton at Guwahati and a half century in Jaipur, remained unbeaten on 63 in 70 balls with six fours and two sixes. He also hit the winning runs, a six over long on.

The second wicket duo of Gambhir and Kohli put on 114 runs in 125 balls without being separated to help the home team score a comprehensive victory in front of a weekend, capacity crowd.

Today's win, India's ninth successive ODI victory over New Zealand, left the remaining two matches in the five-match series in Bangalore (December 7) and Chennai (December 10) just mere contests of academic interest.

The hosts won the opening match at Guwahati by 40 runs and then took a 2-0 lead with a thumping eight-wicket victory in the second ODI in Jaipur.

Chasing New Zealand's modest score, built around James Franklin's unbeaten 72, India were on the offensive from the first ball thanks to Gambhir who raced to his 50 in only 30 balls with nine fours and then got his next 50 in 58 balls with the help of four fours.

He struck left arm Andy McKay for three successive fours after having dispatched the other new ball bowler Kyle Mills for two in as many balls previously.

The manner in which the 29-year-old Delhi player batted blew away any hopes New Zealand might have nurtured to come back into the match after posting a modest score when conditions were slightly in favour of the bowlers.

Earlier in the morning, another left-hander, James Franklin, led New Zealand's revival with an unbeaten half century and helped the visitors recover from a poor start to post a fighting score.

The visitors made a disastrous start by losing their openers within the first five overs and were struggling at 106 for seven before Franklin (72 not out) and Nathan McCullum staged the recovery act with a stand of 94.

Left-handed Franklin batted sensibly after coming in at 49 for 4 in the 16th over even as continued to tumble from the the other end.

He top-scored for the Black Caps with the help of five fours and one six in 108 balls while McCullum made 43 in 53 balls with four fours.

Their eighth-wicket stand off 107 balls took the score to 200 after the Kiwis had lost half their side for 77.

Apart from the eighth wicket pair, only opener Martin Guptill (12) and Scott Styris (22) reached the double figures in a largely uninspiring display put up by the Kiwis after they were asked to bat first by the hosts.

For India, Zaheer Khan (2/31), Yusuf Pathan (2/37 and R Ashwin (2/49) shared six wickets among them while Munaf Patel chipped in with one scalp.

The pitch for the match was a major surprise at a venue that normally provides flat tracks. There was a lot of bounce for the pace bowlers and bounce and turn for the spinners.

New Zealand batsmen, having played on low bouncing tracks after coming to India in early November, were undone by the extra bounce.

Zaheer Khan utilized the bounce to the fullest extent in his splendid first spell of seven overs as he made early inroads into the Kiwi top order.

Coming off after a three-week lay-off, the left-arm paceman struck in the second legal ball of his first over when he prised out danger man Brendon McCullum, who also came into the series after missing the opening two ties because of a back problem.

McCullum was caught in second slip by Murali Vijay off a rising ball that moved away a shade.

Munaf bowled tightly to return with one for 28 while spinners Yusuf Pathan and Ashwin did their but in the middle overs to claim 2 for 27 and 2 for 49 respectively.

When India batted, Gambhir straightaway got into his groove by singling out Mills for special treatment.

Though Vijay crawled at the other end, the aggressive approach by his captain ensured that the hosts were never put under any pressure.

CBI website hacked by 'Pak Cyber Army'

In a major embarrassment, the website of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) was hacked on Friday night by programmers identifying themselves as "Pakistani Cyber Army".

The home page of the CBI website had a message from the 'Pakistani Cyber Army' warning the Indian Cyber Army not to attack their websites.

The CBI website, supposed to be one of the most secure websites, is connected to the command centre of world police organisation - Interpol - 24x7.

The message from the hackers also spoke about the filtering controls provided by the National Informatics Centre (NIC), a body which mans computer servers across the country. It also claims to have hacked another 270 websites.

Intelligence agencies have been often warning the government that proper cyber security was not being ensured in government offices and that no security audit was being carried out.

The website has still not been restored. In a late night statement, the investigating agency said, "CBI is aware that its official website has been hacked and defaced. An inquiry has been launched and necessary remedial measures are underway to restore it."

Speaking on the issue, Supreme Court advocate and cyber law expert Pavan Duggal said the hacking of CBI website is an act of cyber war. "I think this is not a mere hacking incident. It is a step towards a cyber war," he said.

WikiLeaks: summary of the latest disclosures

American diplomats played a high stakes game of ‘Let’s Make a Deal’ with foreign governments to try and empty terror suspects from the Guantanamo Bay prison camp, according to the leaks.

Barack Obama had hoped to shut down the controversial Cuban outpost within a year of becoming president.

But State officials came up against a brick wall both in the U.S. and abroad with fierce opposition over plans to resettle the detainees.

Now, with Mr Obama’s deadline long gone, the cables released by Wikileaks show just how desperate the U.S. became to offload foreign Gitmo inmates.

The latest round of WikiLeaks releases disclose more detail about the US's relationships with allies and foes across the globe. Here is a round-up of today’s headlines.

Prince Andrew criticised a variety of governments, including those of Britain and America, as corrupt, stupid and backward in a conversation with a US diplomat.

In his wave of “almost neuralgic patriotism”, the Duke also made the bizarre claim that British geography teachers are the best in the world.

Families of British servicemen killed in Sangin, Afghanistan have reacted furiously after it was claimed WikiLeaks would disclose dismissive remarks by US commanders on British efforts to secure the town.

The Welsh family of Bradley Manning, the US soldier suspected of handing the classified documents to WikiLeaks, have flown to America but been prevented from visiting him in prison.

The internet has been rife with speculation about which former Labour minister was labelled “a bit of a hound dog” with women by an American official.

David Cameron was seen as “lightweight” by Barack Obama after the first meeting between the two leaders, leaked files will show.

Prince Charles does not command the same respect as the Queen, according to a senior Commonwealth official.

International

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian president, dismissed claims that Arab countries had asked the US to attack his country as a deliberate attempt by the US to destabilise the Middle East.

Released Guantánamo Bay prisoners should have electronic tagging devices implanted so that they can be followed by security officials, the King of Saudi Arabia suggested to a White House official.

Silvio Berlusconi responded to leaked claims by American diplomats that he has a penchant for “wild parties” by claiming he only throws parties in a “proper, dignified and elegant way”.

One of the more unlikely stories to surface from the leaked documents was that of a 77-year-old American dentist who fled Iran on horseback after the 1979 Islamic Revolution.

American officials suspect that North Korea has been secretly aiding Iran in its attempts to build nuclear weapons under the auspices of the Chinese government.

Colonel Gaddafi was believed to be very close to a “voluptuous” Ukrainian nurse who followed him everywhere he went, a US cable claimed.

An exile from Iran was living in London when he was targeted in an assassination plot by an Iranian agent, who was later arrested in America.

India beat New Zealand in Guwahati ODI

Virat Kohli's sparkling century helped India script a 40-run win against an injury-hit New Zealand to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series.

Chasing India's challenging score of 277 at the Nehru Stadium, New Zealand were short on experience with skipper Daniel Vettori and explosive opener Brendon McCullum missing out due to back injuries as the visitors were all out for 236 in 45.2 overs.

Stand-in skipper Ross Taylor top-scored for the Kiwis with a fighting 66 from 69 balls studded with three sixes and three boundaries.

Scorecard

At 169 for eight, New Zealand looked to give up easily but Nathan McCullum (35 from 35 balls, 4x4) and Kyle Mills (32 from 28 balls, 2x4, 2x6) produced a 67-run ninth wicket stand to give India some tough time in the middle.

But Sreesanth (three for 67) broke the partnership dismissing Nathan and Mills with te former being brilliantly caught by skipper Gambhir as India won the match with 28 balls to spare.

Under intense scrutiny, Yuvraj Singh failed with the bat but he was really effective with his bowling claiming three for 43 from his full quota of 10 overs, while off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin took a career-best three for 50 to help India take the series lead.

Thanks to a compact 105 by in-form Kohli, the new look Indian side under Gautam Gambhir put on 276 as they were bowled out in 49 overs after the hosts were sent in to bat.

Fresh from his back-to-back centuries in Ranji Trophy, the Delhi lad played a neat and chanceless knock from 104 balls with 10 boundaries for his second consecutive and fourth overall one-day century.

But Kohli's dismissal brought in a stunning Indian collapse as the lower-order managed 26 runs from last six overs something that exposed the new look side's inexperience at this level.

At 250/4 in the 44th over, with Kohli going great guns, a total in excess of 300 looked within easy reach but it was not the case after the centurion's dismissal by Andy McKay.

But New Zealand fought back with a planned and calculated bowling in the fag-end especially by left-arm seamer McKay who returned with a career-best figures of 10-1-62-4.

New ball bowlers Kyle Mills and Daryl Tuffey claimed three for 42 and two for 56 respectively.

With no McCullum, the New Zealand openers of Jamie How and Martin Guptill lacked the firepower as the visitors were slow and cautious to start with.

Nehra broke the opening stand for 32 scalping How (9) as his partner Guptill, after being dropped twice by Murali Vijay, did not last long departing for 30.

Stand-in skipper Taylor held the fort even as wickets kept falling in at the other end with Yuvraj doing a great job for India with his slow left-arm orthodox spin.

Taylor and Kane Williamson (19) looked good during their 67-run third wicket stand but Yuvraj did not let the partnership going.

Just when Taylor was beginning to look dangerous with his towering sixes, Ashwin gave the crucial breakthrough as New Zealand were reduced to 154 for seven after 33.3 overs.

Earlier Kiwi new ball bowlers, Mills and Tuffey, extracted some fine seam movements early on as openers Vijay (29 from 32 balls, 5x4) and Gambhir (38 from 38 balls, 6x4) survived some anxious moments in the early morning start.

The Indian duo however did not look under any pressure in absence of Virender Sehwag as they stitched 44 for the opening wicket before Vijay was done in by Tuffey with wicketkeeper Gareth Hopkins taking a brilliant catch running backwards.

Kohli settled soon his second-wicket partnership of 48 did not last long with Gambhir falling in a soft dismissal to McKay.

Due for a big knock, Yuvraj was slow and watchful to start that saw India scoring just 17 in the five overs in the bowling powerplay from 10-15 overs.

Having consumed 28 balls for his first eight runs, Yuvraj opened up to the New Zealand spin attack that missed Vettori sorely as Nathan McCullum and Kane Williamson bowled their conventional off-breaks.

Kohli, meanwhile, raced to his ninth half-century in a rather nondescript way but he ensured that they were on track for a big total.

In their 88-run stand for the third wicket, Kohli was compact and flexible in rotating the strike while Yuvraj looked to score in boundaries before he edged one behind the stumps.

India look to nail Kiwis in ODI series

A jaded Suresh Raina (13, 1x4) continued with his poor Test run into the ODIs, as the southpaw lasted 18 balls before becoming Mills' victim.

After Kohli's dismissal for 250 in the last ball of 44th over, the Indian inexperience showed as the lower order collapsed.

Yusuf Pathan played a cameo of 29 from 19 balls laced with three fours and one six, as debutant Wriddhiman Saha (4), Ravichandran Ashwin (0), Ashish Nehra (0) and Sreesanth (1) were dismissed cheaply.

But the total was enough to rattle New Zelanders who missed their regular skipper Vettori and opener McCullum badly to trail in the five-match series 0-1.

India have rested their star performers including skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag, Zaheer Khan and Harbhajan Singh who were not considered due to injury concerns.

SEO basics getting manipulated with content: Is it really “fresh” or just “new?”

How “fresh” is a fresh content? – Now this is something to make us think as to how compromised deeds got included into the scope of SEO boosting. If a content genesis was something like eavesdropping and ingeminating, fresh is not the word for it, but this is in the SEO concept of today. If done an interesting job of getting to the original roots of a so-called fresh content, “distortionary” facts will come out. There are various software being published by leading software development company for content spinning specifically for SEO providers.

Odyssey of a net publication could be: “Freshly” spoken at a conference to someone, that “someone” posted it to a forum, someone else read it and blogged it, some other then tweeted it, whereupon it got blasted via Ping.fm and Hootsuite. This cycle undergoes a repetition for “n” number of times. Another route is something of a convoluted game of telephone. One gives information to another, that “another” conveys it to someone else with his/her own interpretation, this goes on in a chain of communications, the final person has a message quite lost in the original essence of it. Nothing but this could at least retain an underlying definition only if “Chinese whisper” could deliver the original. Forget “fresh.”

An erroneous belief the process has aired around is that tweak pages for the sake of it and you get something worth a “fresh” content, expecting that it will attract search-engine crawlers and will get more and more “search” visible.

Conscientiously, you are doing no favor to your customers and more importantly to “yourself” with fiddling of this kind. What’s genuine is always “originally new” – created, optimized, and promoted authentically. It will let in only updated news, updated links, and refined on-page keywords. Why not have local genuine creations on your web pages with text and media use to create a rich user experience and invite others to feel like linking to it!

As we all know that free web hosting is nothing new in the current online market, but still because of its several advantages it has been continuously

As we all know that free web hosting is nothing new in the current online market, but still because of its several advantages it has been continuously doing great day by day. Although there are so many controversies about free web hosting services even then it is most popular among the novices.

This is human tendency to play safe when it comes on investing money especially when you are a newbie. Free web hosting is the best option if you believe in learning before taking a big decision for your online business.

Free web hosting is not always counted the best one because of its limitations and back-draws, but this is only going to matter for you if you want a fully functional web hosting service for your website.

Here I am going to discuss the cons along with pros of free web hosting.
1. Advertisements

If you go for free hosting get ready to have lots of advertisements on your website. Yeah! Web hosting company that provides with free hosting service will only be able to provide you with it, if it earns something from you. Getting ads on your website is the best way to earn. You can’t stop these ads to be shown over there.

If you are a newbie who just wants to learn how a web hosting service works and what you may require in future for your website then you don’t need to worry about these advertisements on your website. Take it like you are practicing with hosting services you will actually need. Don’t put your most important stuffs on this free hosting space, so that you could do it on your paid space.
2. Support

These free web hosting services may not offer any support services for free clients or if they provide that will be less priority. Keep in mind you are practicing, so make a list of problems that you face during your free web hosting experience and whenever you turn to the paid services ask them if they provide the complete solutions for those problems. Isn’t that a great way to learn?
3. Hosting Features

When you will run your website on the free hosting servers you will automatically come to know what features you require to treat with your clients & visitors requirements. As you will get fewer features with a free web hosting service this will be a good time for you to know about all the features that you exactly require for your website.

There are so many pit-holes in free hosting services, but still I would prefer to use them to host your non-profit sites or websites that are in their opening stages. If you plan to own a website of personal interest free web hosting will be the best media to explore your interest. You can use it just like social media websites.

Out of the 21 results declared, the JD(U)-BJP had won 18 seats while the RJD-LJP alliance was just one seat in its kitty. Independent candidates won the other two seats.

Gambhir captain for entire series


Gautam Gambhir has been appointed captain for the entire five-match ODI series against New Zealand, not just the first two games.

Confirming this on Sunday evening, a well-placed source of The Telegraph said: “The press release issued by the Board (late on Saturday) didn’t specify that, but the selectors have decided on Gambhir for all five matches.”

The series, the last at home before the World Cup, will be played in Guwahati (November 28), Jaipur (December 1), Vadodara (December 4), Bangalore (December 7) and Chennai (December 10).

What is also clear now is that Sachin Tendulkar, regular vice-captain Virender Sehwag and Harbhajan Singh won’t be featuring in any of the matches. Besides, obviously, regular captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

All four are likely to leave for South Africa around December 5/6, arriving about 10 days before the start of the three-Test series.

Rahul Dravid and V.V.S. Laxman would be boarding the same flight. Possibly Pragyan Ojha and Cheteshwar Pujara too.

However, there’s no clarity on Zaheer Khan. “There’s a chance that Zaheer will play the last three ODIs, otherwise he’ll land in South Africa with no match practice at all... If he does play, then he won’t be going with the advance party,” the well-placed source pointed out.

The Board, one learns, would take a call on whether rookie quicks Jaydev Unadkat and Umesh Yadav also need to reach South Africa early.

Dhoni and Co. will be accompanied either by coach Gary Kirsten or bowling consultant Eric Simons. Both have played for South Africa, with the latter having coached the Proteas too.

Meanwhile, there’s no official word, but it seems Dhoni has bruised fingers, while Sachin and Sehwag have a shoulder problem. Harbhajan, it’s gathered, has a shin injury, while Zaheer is recovering from a groin strain.

Except Zaheer, the other four are turning out in the final Test against New Zealand.

The bowler who troubled Tendulkar the most

Tendulkar, surprisingly enough favors England over Australia in the Ashes an names Eoin Morgan as the key man. This is enough reason for me to revisit my own impression of the Ashes - I think Australia will win with reasonable ease, though I don't see either side winning more than 2 out of the 5 Tests. If the wickets are sporting (i.e. they favor bowlers at least in some way), then this might change.

As for the bowler who has troubled him most in Tests. I'm going to stick my neck out here and suggest that he's going to name Hansie Cronje. Note that I write this on Friday evening, before the interview is published. He has said before that he hates facing part time bowlers more than anything else, and Cronje has dismissed him 5 times in Tests.

The man himself says, as I suggested he might, that it was Hansie Cronje who troubled him most. In comments and chats, Abdul Razzaq, Pedro Collins, Glenn McGrath and Dion Nash came up. A few years ago, there was a theory doing the rounds that Tendulkar was bothered by orthodox left-arm spinners, especially Raymond Price of Zimbabwe. Yet, we are presented with Hansie Cronje.

This choice is far from innocent on Tendulkar's part. This is not to say that it is a sly choice. It is true that Cronje had as much success against Tendulkar as Donald did. But then, by that count, Muttiah Muralitharan has dismissed Tendulkar more times than any other bowler - 8 in 19 Tests. Tendulkar also average 48.9 in these Tests and took 5 Test hundreds off Murali. Against Warne and McGrath, Tendulkar has played 2 major series - a 0-3 defeat in Australia in 1999-2000, and a 2-1 win in India in 2000-01. In 12 innings, he reached at least 50 6 times in those series. The mammoth innings eluded him - 126 at Chennai and 116 at Melbourne being his three figure innings. By contrast, Brian Lara played 47 innings against McGrath and reached at least 50 13 times. One of those, was his best ever Test innings in my view - 213 at Sabina Park.

What Does the Apple iPad to do with Archeology ?

You may not see an instant relationship between the Apple iPad and Archeology at first thought. Archeology refers to the scientific study of ancient, prehistoric fossils and ruins. The IPad is on the leading edge of new technological innovation. How can these completely different disciplines interact? Well the versatile and portable design of the Apple iPad, along with its slender and convenient to carry form factor, make it well suited for utilization in the field work Archeologists perform on a daily basis. The user friendly direct input screen is ideal for recording the sophisticated data that archeologist gather in the course of work. Notes, sketches and drawings, that used to be written by hand on paper are now recorded and maintained in a digital format.
Practical iPad Use in the Field of Archeology

ipadinhandhomescreen What Does the Apple iPad to do with ArcheologyDocumenting data faster and with higher accuracy is a priceless tool for researchers. Being able to input data straight to a digital format increases transfer of data and creates a more effective operation. Envision how much more slowly the archeological was previously. First an archeologist working away at a site would generate notes concerning his critical findings. These written notes would be carried around throughout the period the archeologist was working in the field. In the event anything got misplaced it would be lost forever and the researcher would have to attempt to reconstruct from memory their discoveries. Once in the lab the data would be uploaded to other individuals to study. By using an iPad, data is now shared instantly. With a decent disaster recovery plan set up, even if the Apple iPad was misplaced or damaged the information collected would undoubtedly be backed at a remote site database.
Not merely in theory

On the Apple site you can find an article regarding an actual archeological crew making use of the Apple iPad in their field activities. A lot of the built in applications that are standard in the iPad are now being utilized by the team. This demonstrates that ideals regarding how technology can have practical uses in the lives of various professionals, even the most unexpected, can turn to reality.

Sometime soon many applications that are currently being developed will eventually become realistic and feasible apps for iPad’s customers.

The beta program of this software is still under process of experimentation. office365 Microsoft introduces Office 365 with the help of Cloud Software

Shortly, Microsoft Dynamics online CRM will be added to this software and another new version will be launched in future for the benefit of schools and colleges. Office 365 also has Exchange 2007 and Share Point 2007 features which is in support of 2010 edition. But Lync exists as the improved version of OC online.

GM of Microsoft has pointed out that the launch of Office 365 will provide support to Cloud service and all its customers will see progress because of it. And it will operate to integrate some of the Cloud applications as BPO, and Live@edu. It would cover all the existing major applications and tools. Apart from computer it is available in leading cell phones. Initially it was looked as an opponent by Google Applications which has once exerted great pressure on Microsoft. Later it was strengthened and confirmed as a rival of Google Apps which would try and find various other ways for survival. And in this event Google may loose the game also.

In this connection, Research Nuclear analyst Cain has pointed out that Microsoft will have to work hard to meet the expectations of its customers. However, there has been mixed response coming from the users of Office 365. Depending on this feedback, Microsoft would make effort to lure big organizations in the run.

From their perspective, Microsoft is sure that this would be a huge success but its future products will be using Cloud software. The President of Microsoft also agreed to this view and informed that Microsoft is sure of using cloud services in its products.

Office 365 is formulated to supplement the existing versions of Share Point, Lync and Office. Microsoft firmly believes its new launch will bring progress in unique way and the innovative features will be primarily launched on Cloud services only.

Research analysts Mathew Cain and Silver also announced that only after some years the Cloud software will face the demands of any type of company whether it is small or large.

Betsy Webb, General Manager of Microsoft declared that after the worldwide launch of Office 365 next year, Microsoft will take all efforts to improve the present condition of its customers to upgraded Window and it will teach and help them in all possible ways.
