Football greats - Zidane

Football greatness is now a trinity with Zidane joining Pele and Maradona with his astounding comeback from retirement in this worldcup.
So celebrate this trinity of football greatness.
Well Pele and Maradona are greats, no doubts about that, there are pre recorded action as proof. but i have only seen only one great in live action and that is zidane, his astounding comeback 4m retirement in the world cup was just great. Not even the above greats have been able to do that. And when it comes to achievements zidane tops the list compared to the other 2, with 2 league titles with juventus,2 with real madrid, 1 each champions league wit juventus and real madrid,98 worldcup triumph, 2 euro cups, 3 confederations and leading of his outwritten les blues into the final of worldcup. And believe me if it was not for his injury in 2002 france would have fared a lot better in 2002 worldcup.
So folks, its time that zidane joined Pele and Maradona as the new great of soccer.Soccer greatness is a trinity now.

KITCHEN QUEENS !!

It had started out as just another regular day. But I was determined to not let it end that way. It wasn’t going to be the movies or the coffee shop yet again. Racking my brains desperately, I stumbled upon an idea to break the monotony, while having lunch in college. The reason it struck me while eating lunch was that the idea was lunch!Well,not literally. I’d just thought of spending the evening with a few friends,um, cooking. Considering the fact that none of us had any culinary skills to be proud of,it was a pretty dumb idea! But as the others responded enthusiastically, we decided to go ahead.

On our way to a friend’s place after college, our excitement knew no bounds. We agreed upon two dishes-one hot and one sweet-so gulab jamuns and pav bhaji it was! The combination was strange,but highly suited for preparation by first-time chefs! On reaching our friend’s place,we split the work and set about doing various tasks-chopping ,shredding ,boiling ,frying ,mixing and what not! We were in a frenzy-running about ,secretly wondering how our moms get through this ordeal everyday ,and sincerely admiring them.

Soon, after mistakes and mix-ups,adjustments and appropriations, squeals and sighs, we accomplished our mission.It was extremely satisfying to sit at the table and eat food that was actually cooked by us. It just gave us renewed self-confidence – if we can cook, hey, we can do anything!!! We were exhausted but happy because the food tasted great. Maybe it wasn’t all that amazing, I can’t say for sure. It might have been something else that brought cheer-maybe it was just the fact that we’d done something different, and that we’d all chipped in. Maybe it was the team spirit, friendship and energy in the air that was exhilarating . Not maybe. It was,and I know it!

MY KINGDOM FOR INSPIRATION

I find myself unable
To pen a decent line
The words they come
But disappear
Before I make them mine

Unfinished beginnings
Are now quite abundant
A phrase I choose
Will soon become
Invariably redundant

The rhyming scheme I follow
Does not stick to my norm
I would prefer
A b c b, but now that
Aint the form

And so a traitor to the art
Bows her head in shame
And writes instead
Of lost talent
That she once used to claim

U-pack, they drive

We often move from one place to another place. When moving from one door to an other door, there are many issues, questions and concerns that come up. I have found one blog which discusses about the do’s and do not’s while moving. Its more like a relocation guide. They will advice you what to do and what not to do. You can actually ask queries and get your doubts clarified. They also have a packing service called ABF moving guide. But their service is something different from usual rental truck. They ask you to do the complete packing work and they will drive the load to the destination location. So, this greatly reduces the prices compared to rental trucks for long distance moves. So, guys! If you are interested you can also write about your own ways of packing and let people to know.

Decide your PC configuration!

At the time of buying a computer,the 1st thing you should keep in mind is your necessity,i mean,what is the reason of you buying a computer.If you are going for just email checking,browsing & surfing sites,doing some internet jobs,or just doing works in word,excel or power points,then you may go for a minimal configuration.

If with the above mentioned things,u r going for a bit of graphical jobs,such as Photo shop or Corel draw,then u may go for a bit higher configuration.
And if you are related to high end graphics,such as high end gaming,graphics designing,animation in MAYA or 3d Max,then u should go for a high end machine

You may go for any of the above mentioned configurations according to your needs.Being an engineer I'll recommend you to go for AMD based processor since it is much faster than intel though it's price is lower than Intel.

Lie down on back with legs folded at knees. Put hands at the back of your head..Fingers interlocked. Now sit up and raise your head, shoulders and back up to touch your forehead to knees and hold it for a second. Come down slowly. Do 35 reps at one go. Maintain normal breathing.. Do not allow your feet to move. Do not ask any person to grab your feet. Do not anchor your legs with anything. Keep them easy. I'm sure you will get a good result within a month. But avoid fat, restrict carbohydrates... God bless!!!!
