I do catch the newspaper every now and then. But my preferred mode of reading these days is news.google.com or one of the news channels on TV. But at least for 5 minutes each day I will skim through the newspaper for all the stories and if anything is really interesting I will then read out the article. Unfortunately, sensationalism is eating into the quality of the newspaper articles these day...

It depends on how much weight you want to loose in a month. I would not recommend overdoing it as when you overdo it within a couple of months you will overeat and will add more weights than you lost. Do it gradually set yourself monthly targets and slowly start reducing your weights else you will lose your focus and motivation. Cheers! Ram

That's just human nature, it is easy to simply complain about things. Too late, that people realize that just complaining never solves the problem. Only thing is that others also respond to that negativity and become negative. It has kick on effect on the others and is usually bad for everyone involved. Cheers! Ram

Most people from the free software background will tip Mozilla over IE 8. For me I am using Google Chrome and find it to be better than both. I have used with most sites and it seems to be quite good. I have had problems with Mozilla at payment gateways. IE 8 is too much prone to vulnerabilities and attack from viruses and hackers. Cheers!

I have been very practical about my education in that sense. I have always known what I want to do and when, so I really do not feel the pinch of it. For now I am clear that I do not want anything more. Cheers! Ram

The other aspect missed by our friend Mike Atherton is the video analysis. In Bradman's era there was no video analysis. There were no backup team to analyse and tell you the batsmen's weakness and favorite areas for bowlers to bowl accordingly, while Sachin has had to face that... so I just guess all this all time great talk is just a loose one and one that we should give too much importance t...

BTW, Sachin has 7 hundreds in the finals and whenever he has scored an hundred in the final, India has won. Unfortunately people like to remember his failures rather than his achievements. Cheers! Ram
