Avax Sphere is now Avaxhome

I had earlier written about the death of one avaxsphere, but I am now gald to say that I was mistaken. They, for some reason, have simply changed the URL to their brilliant web portal to avaxhome. Check it out!! Its the very same avax that we all thought was gone.
It also has come to my knowledge that they have updated their database and now have loads of more excellent softwares and e-books for us.
Cheers to avax!!!

Best torrents search engines

I know that in a lot of places torrents are illegal, these are for the rest of the world who live on torrents. Here are some of the websites where you can get yourself amazing torrents:

1. Mininova: Most of you might already be knowing about this one. Its very popular for Audio and Video search. But if you want to download any software or book you might not want to look here cause that collection is not great in here. This place is particularly good for subtitles for movies, cause before downloading a torrent of a movie it gives an option for downloading the subtitles for the same movie.

2. IsoHunt: Yet again a very very popular torrent search engine. Excellent for Movies, Songs and also softwares. Yes, here you will find a wide range of amazing stuff if you do the searching properly.

3. Piratebay: Again amazingly good. Has pretty much of everything. The only drawback here is the adult advertisements that go on, on the side. Some people are not comfortable with those.

4. Torrentz: Thsi place is like a google search engine for torrent sites. Don't get me? Its like this, if you don't know where to find your download torrent, go to this place and it will point out all the torrent websites which have the download you are looking for. Pretty neat stuff it does.

5. Axxo: He has earned name and fame over the world for his excellent rips of movies. I too agree with the world about his print qualities, thankyou for everything dude!! And if you don't know about this one, please do check it out. He gives the most amazing, brillent quality movies. One thing ill tell about him is that, you can always trust his prints.

6. btmon: Calls itself the worlds biggest torrent database. I do not completely disagree with it, but being frank, sometimes I don't get what I need in here.

7. Torrentvally: I don't have much to say about this cause I never use this one. Its not because its no good or anything, just that I find what I need generally in '1' or '2'.

There are some more like torrent reactor, torrent portal, bit dig etc. but I never got the chance to try them out.

Solar Eclipse.... its annoying in INDIA

Its fascinating to see the moon block the sun entirely. Well you are not supposed to see it though, but there are ways to watch without watching it with the naked eyes. All this is exciting, except for the fact that people are not supposed to go out of their houses during the eclipse period, they are not supposed to eat stuff and not even drink anything. I still haven't figured out the reason for the last two. The first one might be because of the risk of getting your eyes damaged accidentally, but starving....!!!!
Well if anyone has any answers to this I would love to hear them since my mum also doesn't have the answers.

AVAX is DEAD :-( The very same avaxsphere we loved

I don't know how many of you guys used to logon to avaxsphere.com to download e-books and softwares but there is a bad news for all, avax is dead, the website is no longer operational and no one knows the reason as to why. It was one of the best online portals to download stuff which you couldn't find online elsewhere easily. And for those of you who had never experienced avax, well you missed one of the best ones.
avax sphere rocked!!!!

IWC WATCHES

The search is over! The official launch of ViaLuxe (http://www.vialuxe.com) has transformed the luxury jewelry and watch industry(iwc watches). ViaLuxe is the first and only online luxury website dedicated to helping consumers find, research, and purchase the finest in authorized watch and jewelry brands. The launch came just in time for the holiday shopping season. Now, instead of pushing through crowds and waiting on never-ending lines, luxury consumers can research and locate the perfect holiday jewels and watches for their loved ones from the comfort of their own home. Launching during a pivotal time when high net worth consumers are already familiar with purchasing luxury products like cars and vacations online, there are currently no safe online sites for consumers interested in purchasing fine jewelry or high-end timepieces. The vision of two former Yahoo startup execs, ViaLuxe is the only website of its kind to provide an "authorized" environment for high net worth consumers shopping for 100% authentic luxury items. ViaLuxe works alongside the best retailers to bring the consumers the finest luxury products available.Luxury brands will now have access to online consumer data, and the freedom to update and control information provided about their individual brand. ViaLuxe provides brands the ability to market to potential customers in a highly targeted environment, and positioning next to other fine brands within the industry in a well-designed and authorized environment.ViaLuxe aims to drastically improve the online luxury shopping experience, and will soon expand their services to include authorized retailer storefronts, collector communities and clubs. Another key differentiator set to launch in the next few weeks is the ViaLuxe Concierge Service which will enable consumers to get immediate advice and help from a ViaLuxe watch/jewelry expert via phone, email or live chat. ViaLuxe is slated to add an Ecommerce platform within the next few months completing the ultimate luxury shopping experience.

I Laugh This Game

Playing professional basketball at the highest level is no laughing matter. Or maybe sometimes it is.In this picture, Kyle Korver of the NBA’s Utah Jazz seems to be having a sudden attack of the giggles while trying to play defense.NBA fans have long noted that Kyle Korver looks a lot like popular actor Ashton Kutcher, who is best known for his role as Michael Kelso on the hit comedy TV series, that ’70s Show. So maybe Kyle was just channeling his inner Ashton right there. Most of you probably find the picture funny, but his coach, Jerry Sloan, isn’t likely to be too amused if he ever sees this. Coach Sloan has a well-earned reputation for being a stern guy who always emphasizes tough defense and discipline, and he wouldn’t be pleased if he catches one of his players goofing off on the court like that. But I think even professional players should be allowed to let loose with a belly laugh once in a while. After all, they call basketball a game. Games are supposed to be fun, right?

Clown urinal

A lot of people think clowns are creepy. This latest “innovation” from Japan probably wouldn’t help change their minds.
Yes, it’s a male urinal shaped like the head of a Japanese clown with a wide open mouth. If you didn’t like clowns before, you’ll definitely be having nightmares after this.
Japanese engineers are brilliant, but why do they always come up with strange ideas like this? Don’t they have concern for people who suffer from shy bladders? Having a creepy face staring at them while they’re trying to do their business would just make things more difficult, wouldn’t it?And it gets worse. It moves!

Monex Deposit Company

Are you thinking of purchasing gold or any other precious metals? Well Monex Deposit Company (MDC) is the best choice you can ever get. Monex companies have been America's leader in investment of gold and other precious metals for over 30 years. They also give a variety of options on your purchase like delivery or for safe storage at an independent bank or depository. Gold here, as an investment product, is available in the form of coin or ingot. Generally ingots are gold of pure bullion cast in any size and shape required. Coins have a currency value and if they don't, they are ingots.
So the next time you want to buy something as precious as gold, do not forget to come to MDC, because it will make you most satisfied.

Weird excuse to get out of work

We have all done some pretty stupid things to get out of work before, like calling in with the excuse that the dog was hit by a car or a grandmother died. Believe me, I have used some weird excuses also, but nothing beats this man in Pasco, Washington. He took it a few steps too far when he had his friend shoot him in order to get out of taking a drug test at work.

Yes, this is in fact a true story. In order to get out of a drug test he was going to take at work, Daniel Kuch called the police and told them he had been shot by someone in a dark car. After investigating, however, deputies discovered that this story didn’t make sense. It then came out that Kuch had a friend shoot him so that he would be injured and able to stay away from work long enough for any drugs to leave his system. Both men have since been arrested, and hopefully others will learn a lesson from this situation. Working sucks, but serving jail time sucks a whole lot more.

Historical and influential people’s painting

You know how there are loads of fantastic artwork around and as you browse through them, a little voice in you says “Man, how did they do that?”

Well, I stumbled onto discussion about a recent oil painting and, if you don’t mutter “wow” when you see this painting, then you’re probably were choking on gum… or dead. Or both! Haha…

It’s a huge oil on canvas work by Dai Dudu, Li Tiezi, and Zhang An in 2006 where they have painted major historical figures from our time. Talk about jazzing up a history lesson! I’ve included a snippet of the picture I found, just click on this link for a larger image, complete with image maps and wiki links to find out more information about those influential peopl

Share a loo and improve your relationship

Sure, their Human Rights track record looks dingy at best but apparently marital bliss is top of the list for these folks. This nifty, and albeit strange, Chinese invention promises to smooth over a tense marriage.

Well, it’s a twin toilet kinda like a love-seat except you don’t neck. And let’s face it, no one’s going to cuddle on that two-seater.

It’s called TwoDaLoo (yes, you can cringe) and allows both spouses to use the toilet at the same time. And apparently it’s eco-friendly too, where twin bowls of the toilet are cleaned with a single flush.It’s labeled a well meant effort to bring down emotional walls and get each other to communicate. Not unlike the awkward elevator moments when you have to make small talk and pray for no embarrassing moments.So in the end, whoever cleans the bathroom has twice as much toilet scrubbing to do?And you thought leaving the toilet seat up was a nightmare.

Fenerbahce 2-1 Chelsea

Fenerbahce mounted a stunning comeback to shock Chelsea in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final.Chelsea took the lead when Deivid diverted Florent Malouda's cross into his own net and Michael Essien also hit the bar in a one-sided first half.But the Turkish side levelled when London-born Colin Kazim-Richards smashed home Mehmet Aurelio's pass.And Deivid made amends for his early error to win the game with a superb 30-yard strike into the top corner.Teams of the calibre of Inter Milan, PSV Eindhoven and Sevilla have also come a cropper at the Sukru Saracoglu stadium this season but Chelsea's defeat was a huge surprise after the way they began the game.The hostile atmosphere provided by their fans has undoubtedly played a part in Fenerbahce's impressive home record in Europe but the Istanbul crowd were soon silenced here.Zico's tactic of pushing Fenerbahce's full-backs forward left Malouda and Joe Cole acres of space on the flanks in the early stages and it was from that route that the visitors' goal came.Michael Ballack dummied the ball for Malouda to run down the left and his cross flew into the net after hitting Deivid's outstretched leg.Fenerbahce did not learn from that setback and could easily have been 2-0 down within minutes when Essien strode forward unchallenged down the right and crashed a shot against the bar.The chances kept coming for Chelsea too and Didier Drogba headed wide before he forced a great save out of Volkan Demirel from a tight angle.Demirel did well again before the break when he beat Drogba to Ballack's through ball with the home defence again nowhere to be seen.It seemed just a matter of time before Avram Grant's side got a second goal but instead, as the game wore on, Fenerbahce fought back.Their first chances of the game resulted in Alex heading wide when well-placed before Mateja Kezman tested Carlo Cudicini with an overhead kick.And Chelsea looked less than convincing at the back even before Richards, who managed only one goal in the Premier League last season during an ill-fated spell at Sheffield United, came off the bench to play a key role in his side's fightback.The former Bury and Brighton forward gave his side some much-needed energy up front alongside the lethargic Kezman and his pace also played a part in their equaliser.Richards ran clear to meet Aurelio's lobbed through ball and power his shot past a helpless Cudicini.That clearly rocked Chelsea and suddenly they were the side looking vulnerable, while Fenerbahce poured forward.Grant's side seemed to have weathered the storm, however, and they threatened again through Ballack before Deivid turned from villain to hero in dramatic style with nine minutes left.The Brazilian picked up the ball 30 yards from goal and considered his options before unleashing a thunderous strike that flew past Cudicini and into the roof of the net.Credit must go to Zico for masterminding his side's recovery but Chelsea's first defeat in Europe adds fuel to the fire for those who doubt Grant's ability in big games - and leaves the Blues boss with plenty to think about ahead of next Tuesday's second leg.

How to make root beer

1. Using a clean bottle and a dry funnel, add the ingredients in sequence as stated in the steps that follow. First add a level cup of table sugar, (or cane sugar). Adjust the amount to achieve the desired sweetness.

2. Measure out 1/4 teaspoon powdered baker's yeast, and place in the funnel. The yeast should be fresh and active, and any brand that is available will work.

3. Shake well to make sure that the yeast grains are distributed evenly into the sugar.

4. Swirl the sugar/yeast mixture in the bottom in order to make it concave and enable it to catch the extract in the middle.

5. Replace the funnel, and add 1 Tbsp of root beer extract on top of the dry sugar.
Notice how the extract sticks to the sugar. This will help dissolve the extract as seen in the next few steps .

6. Fill the bottle halfway with fresh cool tap water that has only a little chlorine. Pour through the funnel and use this opportunity to rinse extract stuck to the funnel and tablespoon. Swirl to dissolve the ingredients.

7. Fill the bottle to the neck, this time with fresh water, leaving only about an inch (2.54cm) of head space. Securely screw the cap so as to seal the bottle. Invert repeatedly to thoroughly dissolve the contents.

8. Place the sealed bottle at room temperature for about three or four days until the bottle feels hard to a forceful squeeze. Then move it to a cool place (below 65 F (18 C)). Refrigerate overnight to thoroughly chill before serving. Crack the lid of the bottle just a little to release the pressure slowly.

Change your boot-up picture

Are you bored of the mundane start-up or shut-down screen provided by microsoft? Well here is a way to customize them.

There are three files which makeup the startup and shutdown screens, they are:

LOGO.SYS - The startup screen, usually located in your C:\ directory.

LOGOW.SYS - The 'Please wait...' screen, usually located in your c:\windows directory.

LOGOS.SYS - The 'It's now safe to turn off your computer.' screen, usually located in your c:\windows directory.

These files are standard 256 color Windows bitmap files with dimensions of 320(w) x 400(h). You can use basically any image editing program to change them (as long as it supports BMP files).

Warning: Before getting started make sure to take a backup copy of all three files (LOGO.SYS may or may not already exist).

1. Copy LOGOW.SYS and LOGOS.SYS to a temporary folder, and rename their extensions to .BMP

2. Using your favorite graphics editor, open the files and modify them to your liking.

3. Once your finished, save the files, change their extensions back to .SYS, and copy them back over the original files in the Windows directory (which you've already backed-up) and you're done.

Alternatively you can create three new BMP files for each screen, just make sure that the proportions of 320(w) x 400(h) are maintained. The file once finished should be 129,078 bytes.

How to lock folders without using any software

Here are the steps to lock (not actually lock but to change the pointer address) a folder in windows xp:

1. Assume I want to lock a folder named 'new' which I have created in c drive.
2. Go to the path (in this case its c:\) create a new notepad entry.
3. Then edit that entry by typing in it the following:
ren new new.{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
4. Save it as lock.bat
5. Now if you run the .bat file your icon 'new' should have changed. Try clicking it now.
6. For creating a key, open an other notepad entry and write:
ren new.{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D} new
7. Save it as key.bat and run it.

Swift DZire - The latest offering from Maruti Suzuki

Maruthi-Suzuki just launched the sedan version of the Swift calling it the Swift DZire which replaces the venerable Maruti Esteem. The car which features the same engine options as the hatchback Swift, 1.3 Petrol and Diesel options will cost around Rs 1 lakh more than comparable versions of the Swift.

Shinzo Nakanishi, Managing Director, Maruti Suzuki India Limited said that the company had decided to stay with the old G13 engine from the Esteem and the Swift because the newer M-series engine family as on the SX4 would have added significantly to the costs. India is the only country where the Swift is sold with the old G-series engine.

The higher end ZXi and ZDi versions of both cars feature several safety features such as Anti-Lock Brakes and Airbags. Mayank Prereek, Head of Marketing, MSIL believes that the car will give a fillip to the moribund Entry-A3 segment of the auto market.

Prices (in Rs lakhs, ex-showroom Delhi):

Petrol 1.3 LXi - 4.49 VXi - 4.97 ZXi - 5.90

Diesel 1.3 LDi - 5.39 VDi - 5.85 ZDi - 6.70

HDPE : "RECYCLED PLASTIC"

HDPE (short for High Density Polyethylene) unlike the ordinary plastic,this is a commonly used plastic which can be recycled. HDPE Scrap is the collected material which is then sold to be recycled.The main advantage being the recycling factor is a promising feature of this category of plastic.It comes all sorts of shapes, forms and colors which is pretty cool.The best part about this is that it can provide a good water barrier unlike the LDPE.The enticing quality of the HDPE for the consumers is that it comes in a variety of forms like the HDPE Film form which can be used for snack food packaging and cereal box liners. The blow molded HDPE form can be used for non carbonated drink bottles and the HDPE injection molded form is mostly used for margarine tubs, deli food and whipped topping.The other uses of this kind of plastics are detergent bottles, milk jugs, garbage containers, water pipes (plumbing) as well as packaging for industrial chemicals such as detergents, bleach and acids etc.So next time when u buy anything plastic related ask the shopkeeper whether its made from HDPE or not.

"I'll be going to bed having nightmares of Sachin just running down the wicket and belting me back over the head for six. He was unstoppable. I don't think anyone, apart from Don Bradman, is in the same class as Sachin
Tendulkar. He is just an amazing player" -Shane Warne.

"I saw him playing on television and was struck by his technique, so I asked my wife to come look at him. Now I never saw myself play, but I feel that this player is playing much the same as I used to play, and she looked at him on Television and said yes, there is a similarity between the two... his compactness, technique, stroke production... it all seemed to gel" -Sir Donald Bradman.

"In an over I can bowl six different balls. But then Sachin looks at me with a sort of gentle arrogance down the pitch as if to say 'Can you bowl me another one?'" - Adam Hollioke

You might pitch a ball on the off stump and think you have bowled a good ball and he walks across and hits it for two behind midwicket. His bat looks so heavy but he just waves it arounad like it's a toothpick? -Brett Lee

You have to decide for yourself whether you're bowling well or not. He's going to hit you for fours and sixes anyway? -Micheal Kasprowicz

Technically, you can't fault Sachin. Seam or spin, fast or slow ? nothing is a problem? -Geoffrey Boycott.

His life seems to be a stillness in a frantic world... [When he goes out to bat], it is beyond chaos - it is a frantic appeal by a nation to one man. The people see him as a God... ? Mathew Hayden, on Sachin Tendulkar.

I (Embarrassed laugh) am a normal person who plays cricket. I am nothing more than that? - Sachin Tendulkar, on being told of above quote.

"The fact of the matter is that India still need Sachin in a big way. All this talk of the youngsters taking over is very foolish. The reason why Tendulkar is so important for the team is because of his ability to inspire others and make them perform under pressure" - Some day on "Times of India".

Cricket is the religion and sachin is the God Team India without Sachin is like Temple without God.

And, this is the best!!! (A True fan of Sachin carried this Banner in a test match at Sydney..)

"Commit all your crimes when Sachin is batting. They will go unnoticed because even the Lord will be gone to watch him bat!!!."

Toilet bowls have replaced chairs

Valentine’s Day has just pasted. For many lovebirds around the world, a romantic candlelit dinner is the perfect way to celebrate. But you probably wouldn’t want to take your date to this particular Taipei restaurant.

Limerick on the Admin's cousin

There once lived a dude called sherminator
who's nothing like the actual terminator
he goes by the name of sai
who we dont quite know if a girl or a guy
perfectly at ease flirting with both sexes
stuff with baunny and others, proof in excess
he comes into class perpetually late

and blames his recurrent mishaps on fate
his command on hindi is something to behold
birke-martini and sickocho near his heart does he hold
his style of clothing; everyone beware
with his pants somewhere south of his Jockey underwear
his style of clothing; everyone beware
with his pants somewhere south of his Jockey underwear
supposedly skillful with his bike between his legs
but drives like a dipsomaniac chock full of pegs
for on one occasion did he execute near college a bend
as a result of which he has been on the mend
a wave of relief, everyone around him had
when they realised - "no more harebrained schemes about going to Hyderabad!!"

Srinivasa Ramanujan: 1729

Srinivasa Ramanujan was a mathematical prodigy."I remember once going to see him when he was lying ill at putney,"the mathematician G.H.Hardy once remarked."I had ridden in taxicab number 1729 ,and remarked that the number seemed to me rather a dull one and that i hoped it was not an unfavorable omen."'No,' he replied ,'it is a very interesting number;it is the smallest number expressible as the sum of two cubes in two different ways."'["Every positive number,"Hardy later remarked, "was one of his personal friends."Despite recieving little formal education,Ramanujan was discovered by Hardy,to whom he sent some of his first papers.Hardy later gave Ramanujan a rating of 100 on his own scale of "pure talent."Hardy's own rating/25.]

Super Windows Administrator Hacks

Say you are in a place with a computer (Some people I know will have a very shrewd idea about the place I am talking about :D) where you do not have the access some folders, drives or some options like RUN, SEARCH etc and also you don’t know the password to access the admin account to open these.

First of all there would have been a reason for the administrator to block such options, but you like me either have a very special purpose for accessing it, or want to do it just for fun. Well, guess what? I am going to teach you some neat hacking tricks here to do some really cool stuff.

P.S The tricks I am about to teach you are very hard to find, also on the other hand always remember the system administrator is definitely smarter than you (its not so in my case ;P)

In general cases the above mentioned restrictions are generally controlled by the WINDOWS REGISTRY. But if the administrator is a smart one he would use the main server to do it. If the second case is true then the below mentioned tricks might not work. I will teach you network hacking in later sessions.

The admin uses a tool called the POLICY EDITOR or PLOEDIT to alter the changes in the windows registry. This software does not install with windows, but one has to install it from the windows disc. This policy editor imposes restrictions by modifying the user.dat file.

So if you want to bypass or terminate such restrictions what do you do? Edit the policy editor what else. To do this first launch the registry editor.

Now go to the key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/CurrentVersion/Policies

Search and find a key names ‘explorer’ under the above key. Now under this ‘explorer’ key we can create new DWORD values and change its value to 1 for restricting it. Similarly if you want to remove a restriction simply change the value to 0 or delete the DWORD.

Here are some examples of some DWORD values that can be created for restrictions:

NoRun: Disables RUN command

NoFind: Disables FIND command

NoDrives: Hides all drives

(There are plenty of more commands to restrict various other stuff, for more commands you are welcome to leave a comment about what you want.)

So you see how simple it is. But there is one glitch here. What if the administrator blocks the REGISTRY EDITOR? Are you in a fix? Don’t worry, cause the solutions here.

Go to the windows directory, delete either the user.dat file or the system.dat file and reboot. When windows logs in, it will show a warning or error about windows registry. Overlook the message and press CTRL+ALT+DEL to get out (Do not press OK)

There is much more to this hack, but I am going to tell you this much right now. If you really wish to know more, you are welcome to comment about you suggestions.

P.S If you liked this article and want me to post more of such cool stuff, please encourage me with your comments.

How to block your cell number

What came before Google?

Search engines are apart of internet user's daily life. Obviously, Google is currently the mother of all search engines, but it was not always this way. Intially it wasn't the huge companies which were not creating search engines but rather college students were.The first tool for searching the Internet was called “Archie” which was created by Alan Emtage, a McGill University student in 1990. Archie was a program that downloaded a listing of all files located on public anonymous File Transfer Protocals (FTP). The list was generated into a searchable database for users to access.

Some Untold Tips about Windows

Here are some really interesting tricks in windows which are not banal....

(All of these work in windows 98, me. For windows xp one has to do some minor changes. If not able to interpret, can always ask me for help.)

1. Quick shutdown: Generally you have to move your mouse to the start button, click on it and then click shutdown. Yet again windows asks you whether to shutdown, logoff or go to standby mode. Well here's a method by which you can shutdown your windows in a click of your mouse.

Create a new shortcut in the desktop, then in the command line of the shortcut type:
c:\windows\rundll.exe user.exe,exitwindowsexec
(NOTE: The path might differ according to the drive which has windows.)

Now all you have to do is to click this shortcut to shutdown windows.

There are a lot more stuff I would like to share and explain but right now am a bit occupied, so excuse me for late postings.

DNA 'barcode' revealed in plants

Species of orchid or any other plant ,flower can look the same but can be genetically different.Scientists have developed a "barcode" gene that can be used to distinguish between the majority of plant species has been identified.This gene can be used to catalogue plant life as it has a slightly different code between species but is nearly identical within a species. Species that look the same to the human eye can be told apart with a small leaf sample. DNA barcoding is already a very well-established technique in animals.

Hand of God goal

The Hand of God goal (Spanish: Mano de Dios) was scored as the result of an illegal (but unpenalized) handball by Diego Maradona in the quarter-final match of the 1986 FIFA World Cup England and Argentina, played on 22 June 1986 in Mexico City's Estadio Azteca. Argentina won 2–1 and for some English people the legacy of this event perhaps best symbolizes the rivalry between the two teams, and is usually mentioned whenever the two sides meet.

Goal
Six minutes into the second half, the score was 0–0. Maradona cut inside from the right flank and played a diagonal low pass to the edge of the area to teammate Jorge Valdano and continued his run in the hope of a one-two movement. Maradona's pass, however, was played slightly behind Valdano and reached England's Steve Hodge, the left-midfielder who had dropped back to defend.
Hodge (who swapped shirts with Maradona after the game) tried to hook the ball clear but miscued it. The ball screwed off his foot and into the penalty area, toward Maradona, who had continued his run. England goalkeeper Peter Shilton duly came out of his goal to punch the ball clear, with his considerable height (6'1" or 185cm) making him clear favourite to beat Maradona (5'5" or 165cm) to it. However, Maradona reached it first—with the outside of his left fist. The ball went into the goal, and the referee, (Tunisian Ali Bin Nasser), not having seen the infringement, allowed the goal. Many people, including Shilton, did not initially realize it was a handball. Some television commentators thought the objections of the English defenders were claims for offside (Maradona could not have been offside because the previous touch was by an England player), and it was only clear from other camera angles—not the original one—that there had been an offence.
The Argentine players and fans celebrated (video shows Maradona looking toward the referee; he later said "I was waiting for my teammates to embrace me, and no one came . . . I told them, 'Come hug me, or the referee isn't going to allow it.While the English players protested to no avail.
Incidents of players seeking to gain an advantage by skirting the laws of the game, in the hope that the referee does not see, are common. This incident has derived its notoriety largely from the importance and closeness of the match, the animosity between the nations, and the responses of Maradona and the English media.

Star Wars universe going to expand

The "Star Wars" universe, already substantially rendered by computer generated imagery, is giving in all the way to animation.George Lucas wanted to explore more "Star Wars" ideas. "The Clone Wars" is the result.

"Star Wars: The Clone Wars," an animated film, will open in theaters August 15 and be followed by a TV series of the same name, to air on the Cartoon Network and TNT this fall.
"I felt there were a lot more 'Star Wars' stories left to tell," said "Star Wars" creator George Lucas in a statement. "I was eager to start telling some of them through animation and, at the same time, push the animation forward."Produced by Lucasfilm Animation, both the film and TV show will be distributed through Time Warner Inc., which owns TNT, the Cartoon Network and the film's distributor, Warner Bros. (Time Warner is also the parent company of CNN.)
Lucas, who serves as executive producer, is also planning a live-action television series spinoff of the franchise, which he began working on last fall. The animated series has long been in the works, though the theatrical release was only announced late Tuesday.
The movie and subsequent series takes place between the ground covered in episodes II and III of the "Star Wars" films: "Attack of the Clones" (2002) and "Revenge of the Sith" (2005). It will include cartoon versions of many familiar characters, including Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Padme Amidala and General Grievous.
A new character named Ahsoka, Anakin's padawan, will be the first female Jedi to be a character of focus.
"It turned out to be an idea that George wanted to explore," said Dave Filoni, director of the "Clone Wars" movie and supervising director of the series. "Henry Gillroy (a writer on the series) and I very much wanted to have a female Jedi in more of a lead role because you've had all the boys."More than 30 episodes are planned, though Filoni declined to say exactly how long the show will run. He acknowledged it's a finite timeline before encroaching on "Revenge of the Sith" story lines.
Though the "Star Wars" films have been extraordinarily lucrative, the force won't be expected to be as strong in cartoon form. The film and series are clearly aimed at younger viewers, though Filoni hopes to also entice the many "Star Wars" die-hard fans.
"An animated series always appeals more to a younger audience," said Filoni. "But at the same time, we've tried to do some sophisticated things and ensure that we are going to satisfy the broad spectrum of 'Star Wars' fans."
Though Lucas farms out various "Star Wars" projects in what's known as the " 'Star Wars' expanded universe," Filoni says that Lucas ensured "The Clone Wars" has "that 'Star Wars' feeling."
Fans will also remember other animated series following the first time Lucas completed a "Star Wars" trilogy. After "Return of the Jedi," the series "Ewoks" and "Droids" ran in the late '80s.

Playing For Pizza: John Grisham

Rick Dockery was the third-string quarterback for the Cleveland Browns. In the AFC Championship game against Denver, to the surprise and dismay of virtually everyone, Rick actually got into the game. With a 17-point lead and just minutes to go, Rick provided what was arguably the worst single performance in the history of the NFL. Overnight, he became a national laughingstock and, of course, was immediately cut by the Browns and shunned by all other teams. But all Rick knows is football, and he insists that his agent, Arnie, find a team that needs him. Against enormous odds Arnie finally locates just such a team and informs Rick that, miraculously, he can in fact now be a "starting "quarterback. Great, says Rick— for which team? The mighty Panthers of Parma, Italy. Yes, Italians do play American football, to one degree or another, and the Parma Panthers desperately want a former NFL player— any former NFL player— at their helm. So Rick reluctantly agrees to play for the Panthers— at least until a better offer comes along— and heads off to Italy. He knows nothing about Parma— not even where it is— has never been to Europe, and doesn’ t speak or understand a word of Italian. To say that Italy— the land of opera, fine wines, extremely small cars, romance, and Football Americano — holds a few surprises for Rick Dockery would be something of an understatement.
