Govt. unveils Rs. 1,500 laptops for students

New Delhi: The Human Resource ministry unveiled a Rs. 1,500 (around $30)laptop which is designed specifically for students. The laptop will be available for the students in 2011.

"If more companies decide to manufacture a similar device, prices will come down automatically," Human Resource Development Minister Kapil Sibal said after unveiling the low cost-access-cum computing device here.

When the ministry floated the concept of a low cost laptop some years ago, officials said it would cost Rs.500 ($10). It will now cost about three times the initial projections.

The ministry expects the prices to drop to Rs.1,000 ($20) and reach Rs.500($10) as innovations are introduced.


The device, no bigger than a conventional laptop, is a single unit system with a touch screen and a built in key board along with a 2 GB RAM memory, wi-fi connectivity, USB port and powered by a 2-watt system to suit poor power supply areas.

"This is real and tangible and we will take it forward. Sun will rise for the Indian students in 2011," he said.

The ministry also invited private players to produce similar low cost computers.

"When we started the project, the response from the private sector was lukewarm. Now many are willing to join the innovation," Sibal said.

Facebook crosses 500 millon users

Social networking site Facebook officially has 500 million users, the company announced Wednesday. The milestone means that the six-year old website now reaches eight percent of the planet's population, just 18 months after it passed the 150 million user mark.

Last month Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg said there is a "good chance" that the social networking site could boast one billion users within three to five years.



Facebook has continued adding users at a record-setting pace despite growing concerns about the privacy policies of a site that has more data on its users than any other website.

Facebook marked the milestone with the launch of a special section in which users are encouraged to post their personal stories about how Facebook has affected them.

"Half a billion is a nice number but the number isn't what really matters here. What matters are all of the stories we hear from all of you about the impact your connections have had on your lives," Zuckerberg said in a video message.

"Instead of focusing on numbers, we want to help people around the world hear about these stories for themselves, and we want to let you tell your own story."

Siemens’ systems under virus attack


BOSTON: Hackers have built a computer virus that attacks Siemens AG's widely used industrial control systems, creating malicious software that analysts said can be used for espionage and sabotage.

The German company said the malware is a Trojan worm dubbed Stuxnet that spreads via infected USB thumb drives, exploiting a yet-to-be-patched vulnerability in Microsoft Corp's Windows operating system.

"Just viewing the contents of the USB stick can activate the Trojan," said Siemens spokesman Alexander Machowetz. "Siemens recommends avoiding the use of a USB stick."

Siemens first learned of the problem on July 14, he said.

Stuxnet is among the first to surface that attacks software programs that run Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition, or SCADA, systems. Such systems are used to monitor automated plants -- from food and chemical facilities to power generators.

Once the worm infects a Siemens system, it quickly sets up communications with a remote server computer that can be used to steal proprietary corporate data or take control of the SCADA system, said Randy Abrams, a researcher with ESET, a privately held security firm that has studied Stuxnet.

Analysts said attackers may have chosen to spread the malicious software via a thumb drive because many SCADA systems are not connected to the Internet, but do sport USB ports.

Siemens said it has so far only identified one customer whose SCADA systems were infected by the virus, a customer in Germany that Machowetz declined to identify by name.

Security experts have long theorized that hackers -- including ones working for nation states or terrorist groups -- would one day develop viruses that target SCADA systems. They could be used to steal sensitive data or sabotage major infrastructure facilities by instructing software to attack those plants.

"It could be very valuable to a nation-state for war-like espionage. It could be very valuable to terrorist organizations," said ESET's Abrams.

Microsoft spokesman Jerry Bryant said he did not know when the company would update its Windows software to address the vulnerability that Stuxnet exploits.

Now that the exploit has been publicized, other hackers will quickly rush to develop malicious software programs that take advantage of the same vulnerability, said McAfee Inc spokesman Joris Evers.

Siemens, Microsoft and security experts who have studied the Stuxnet worm have yet to determine who created the malicious software.

Score

India end the day with the score 140/3 in 29.4 overs
Sehwag 85*
laxman 18*


Sri Lanka were rocked early by India's seamers before the sun came out and the hosts counterattacked in style. They built a big score and declared at tea. India will be gutted at having lost three wickets, but Sehwag is still out there and looking very good. Laxman got into the groove as well towards the end, and the way these guys shape up tomorrow against Murali and co. will make for more fascinating viewing. Here's hoping for good weather tomorrow as well and c u tomorrow with the current updates of cricket and news.......

Airtel brings Iphone 4 in India

New Delhi: The much hyped iPhone 4 would soon hit the Indian mobile market if all goes well between the country's largest telecom operator, Bharti Airtel, and the handset maker, Apple.

"We are working with Apple. Hopefully in the September-October time frame we would launch the phone," Sanjay Kapoor, Chief Executive of Bharti Airtel (India and South Asia), told reporters on the sidelines of a CII conference.



Earlier in June, Vodafone Essar had spoken of its plans to launch the iPhone 4 in India, without specifying a timeframe for the same.

On the rollout of Broadband Wireless Access services in four circles - Maharashtra, Karnataka, Kolkata and Punjab - which it bagged for Rs.3,314.36 crore, Kapoor said they were still to decide on the technology that will be used.

Airtel, which won 13 circles in the auction of airwaves for third generation (3G) telephony spectrum, shelling out Rs.12,295.46 crore ($2.73 billion), has also started gearing up its network to enable a quicker rollout of such services.

Bharti Airtel already sells iPhone 3GS in India priced at Rs 35,500 for the 16 GB model and Rs. 41,500 for the 32GB model.

Apple had last month announced the launch of the iPhone 4 with a sharper screen and video-chat features in an attempt to ward-off competition from devices running Google's Android software.

"As far as 3G is concerned, a very large amount of the network is 3G ready. We are working towards an aggressive timeline," said Kapoor.

Indian Seamers strikes

Srilanka 398/7
Sharma and Mithun 3 wic and Sehwag one wic..


On the first day, the pitch looked flat, the bowling insipid and the Sri Lankan batsmen were queuing up to have a go at the Indians. Everything changed today. Yesterday's storms and overnight rains had left a damp and seaming pitch and the Indians were on song today. After a long time Ishant Sharma looked threatening as a bowler. It was that kind of a morning. Unexpected things happened. The ball talked. The Indians smiled. And Ishant roared. However, it wasn't all gloom for Sri Lanka. Angelo Mathews sparkled with a lovely cameo and Sri Lanka moved past 350 which can be a daunting total in these conditions.

The story of the morning, though, was Ishant and to an lesser extent Abhimanyu Mithun. The Indian seamers harassed the batsmen in two spells - first with the old ball and the next with the new cherry. In between the spinners were ineffective in a seven-over spell between them and Sri Lankans added 23 in that period. It was the only period where they could breathe easy.

Ishant, in particular, produced his finest spell in recent memory. He struck with his second delivery: It kicked up from short of length and tilted away from Tharanga Paranavitana who replied with a lame fatal poke. Next up was Thilan Samaraweera. Ishant struck him on his helmet with a bouncer on the first delivery and had him jabbing at the next couple of incutters.

While Mithun picked up Samarawaeera, Ishant returned later to trouble Jayawardene with the new ball. The first over was a gem. He got the third delivery to leave Jayawardene late. It was a peach of a legcutter and you wondered whether he could maintain the pressure for a series of deliveries. The next one cut in and Jayawardene seemingly left it on the bounce. Or was he expecting it to go other way? You couldn't be really sure. The next delivery darted back in, cut Mahela into half and somehow missed the off stump. Jayawardene lunged forward desperately the next ball to take out the lbw out of the equation and was hit on the inner thigh by another incutter.

The over ended but the battle had just begun. Next over, Ishant got just one ball to bowl at Jayawardene. He hurled a legcutter and produced an edge but the ball ran past gully to the boundary. Next over, Ishant troubled Jayawardene with yet another legcutter which prompted an appeal from the men behind the stumps. The contest ended next delivery as Ishant seamed the ball back in to catch Jayawardene in front of the leg stump. It was a wicket well earned and a battle worth watching.

Then, Angelo Mathews showcased his cricketing acumen. He had been pushing and prodding until then. Survival was at the forefront of his mind. With Jayawardene's departure, he jumped to Plan B and began the counter attack. It was classic old-school cricket. As that cliché goes, attack is the best form of defence. Sometimes it is indeed so. He walked down the track and pulled Mithun to the midwicket boundary. He then carved Ishant to the point boundary, lifted him over mid-off and slashed him through covers.

Ishant, though, struck just before lunch with a delivery that straightened outside off. Mathews, caught on the crease, pushed away from the body and VVS Laxman took a smart catch to his right at second slip. The break couldn't have come sooner for the hosts.

Sehwag misses Murali

I will miss facing Murali. He is the most difficult bowler I played against. I am happy that I don't have to face him again, but at the same time I am disappointed he will not be around anymore in Test cricket.

He was difficult because I could never plan against him. I would try to watch his hand, and if I could pick him, I would play. Otherwise I would watch the ball closely to try to get an idea of the type of delivery he had bowled.

The first time I faced him, in the tri-series in 2001, was a nightmare because I could hardly pick any of his variations. At times he would spin it at right angles, making my job nearly impossible. I tried to play him defensively and cash in against the other bowlers, because I was never comfortable against Murali. That's something that never changed.

One of the reasons I could never prepare against him was because he varied his pace smartly. In that tri-series, my original plan to combat him was to dominate, try and hit some sixes. But he figured that out and had me caught easily at long-off. Then in the 2003 World Cup, when I was batting well on 66, I hit him over midwicket without picking the doosra and was caught at long-on. There were so many occasions like that when I was confused about whether it was his offbreak or the doosra, and didn't have the time to adjust my body position or my mind to play accordingly. That is how he controlled me.

He would never give you any easy balls; you had to remain patient and improve your skills. He would be quick first up, then he would introduce the doosra, then he would suddenly bowl a really slow ball.

He was always at you, keeping you guessing. Over the years I learnt I needed to be patient. I think that helped me get those three centuries I made against Sri Lanka in the last three years - a double-century in Galle, a century in Kanpur and another double in Mumbai, last December - though I must admit his pace and spin were not as lethal in those matches as they were when I played him for the first time. In a way, those hundreds sort of offset the troubles I had against him previously.

Though I've managed to make some runs against him, I could never pick his doosra. It might sound strange but I can pick that delivery off any other spinner, but with Murali I was stumped. In the 2008 Galle Test, I decided to treat every ball as if it was a doosra and play it towards cover. I didn't hit the ball hard, just used timing to direct it towards cover. Along with that, I waited for loose balls to play shots on the back foot.

Murali doesn't spin the ball so much any more. It's hard to believe this was the same man who could, at one time, pitch it well outside off and get the ball to hit the stumps. That changed when he began bowling a lot of doosras and straighter ones; they probably affected his turn. Yet the doubt remains in my mind. Tomorrow if I walk out, I cannot say for certain that I will score against Murali. I can say that for other bowlers. And that applies through a match: against other bowlers, I usually find it easy to score over a period, but with Murali it did not matter if I was on 0, 10 or 100 - he was always a challenge.

I don't think any bowler likes to show his hand to a batsman, especially to one like me. But Murali is a very good friend. I don't know if he was joking or being serious but he once told me he did not bowl slower deliveries to me because he believed I would hit him out of the ground. He bowled quick so as to not allow me much time to hit or pick the doosras from the offbreaks. It was nice of him to say that. He knows I like to dominate bowlers, but he was equally dominating.

The first thing a young spinner could learn from Murali is a lesson in humility. His patience was also amazing. He told me sometimes he had to bowl 40-50 overs to get a five-for and at times he got it in just 15 overs. To excel at the highest level, you have to be able to exercise patience and have a strong character. That is the best thing anyone can learn from Murali.

I was lucky to be alongside him in the World XI team that played Australia a few years ago. It only confirmed my opinion of him. His best quality is his simplicity. He is down-to-earth; he doesn't make you feel he is a world record-holder. He always makes you feel comfortable in his company. On the field I've never seen him get aggressive or yell at anyone. He always challenged the batsman in a nice manner and motivated his team with a smile and through hard work. Even for an opponent, he was a shining example.

Top secret abt Endiran

Shankar





Come July 31st and we would get to hear the Endhiran songs! The audio launch function, which will have a host of celebrities attending it, will take place at Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia.
So which audio company managed to lap up the audio rights of this biggie? Well, that is kept a well-guarded secret till now. However, sources report that audio rights have been sold for a whopping Rs. 7 crores, a sum that has not been paid for any of the films’ audio rights so far.
This leads us to believe that AR Rahman has scored some wonderful songs that would soon turn out to be chartbusters

Theft in T.Nagar

CHENNAI: The sensational robbery case in T. Nagar here early this month in which an armed gang robbed two employees of Pothys textile showroom of Rs.81 lakh has been solved with the arrest of ten accused persons. Part of the cash and some gold jewellery were seized.
Most of the suspects were claimed to be associates of Manalmedu Sankar, an alleged gangster who was shot dead in an encounter with the police in 2007.
Commissioner of Police (in-charge) Sanjay Arora said the tip-off came from the Organised Crime Intelligence Unit of the State intelligence. Special teams formed to crack the case did methodical work leading to the arrest of the suspects. “It was days of painstaking investigation by a number of police personnel that led to the detection of the case. The breakthrough came when we got information that the suspects under cover in a town had bought a four-wheeler. Police carried out a search of the entire town to locate the vehicle,” he said.
Investigators recovered cash, gold jewellery and some vehicles worth about Rs.36 lakh. Of the 13 persons involved in the robbery, ten were arrested and efforts were on to apprehend the other three persons.
“Ten suspects who came on five motorcycles committed the robbery. They were monitoring the movement of cash from Pothys to the bank for a couple of days. After committing the crime, they split into teams and went to different places.”
‘Kovai' Praveen, Illakiaraj and two others belonging to Nagapattinam and Tiruvarur districts were professional criminals.
“The other six suspects were also involved in various crimes over the years. They met while they were in prison and conspired to commit major offences,” he said.
Asked whether the gang had planned to commit any crime with the robbed money, Mr.Arora said the matter was under investigation.

Rain washes the second day

Sri Lanka's attempt to compile a massive first-innings score and pressurise India was put on hold as the entire second day in Galle was washed out due to intermittent showers. Overnight rain had ensured there was no play possible before lunch, and the conditions deteriorated further with bad light and sporadic downpours. There was a period when the covers came off after a dose of sunshine, but an inspection scheduled for 2.30pm never happened as the rain refused to relent.

The hosts had reached a dominant position at the end of the first day, finishing on 256 for 2, with centuries from captain Kumar Sangakkara and opener Tharanga Paranavitana, who is still batting. With Mahela Jayawardene giving Paranavitana company, and Thilan Samaraweera, Angelo Mathews and Prasanna Jayawardene to follow, things look bleak for the Indian team. Spectators who had flocked to the Galle International Stadium on the first day in the hope of watching Muttiah Muralitharan bowl in his final Test were made to wait longer. Play is scheduled to resume at 9.30am on Tuesday, weather permitting
