Its March, its F1 time

Its March 2007 and we will be witnessing two major sporting events kicking off this month: The ICC Cricket World Cup 2007 and the F1 2007 season.

Just a couple of quick thoughts though:
  • Is this the biggest cricketing world cup yet??? I'd rather say that it is definitely the Longest. 16 teams and one is rest assured that the first half of the event is going to be booring.

  • Will F1 be the same again without Schumi? They might say it will get more competitive but as our Mr. Siddhu would have said, "F1 without Schumi is like giving Kiss without a Squeeze."

How many kisses have u experienced so far :-) ???
F-1 has been boorin for th previous few years, and so has the Cricket been.
My interest in sports has evaporated to a considerable amount

a different view as opposed to desh.. F1 without Schumi could turn out to be great for one reason, now everyone would be on the same level. Schumi's dominance had literally ruined the sport and it only got revived coz of Alonso's victories.
But now only thing lacking in F1 is missing superstar like Schumi, Hakkinen who could draw huge crowds.

Anyways I am eagerly waiting for the season to start. This season its gng to be a great contest between kimi and alonso. But my money is on Kimi!

Desh, you should have heeded our Munna's advice and watched the 2006 season. It was everything but booring and I am sure even moron would agree to it.
And just wondering, what happened to the die-hard Alonso fan?

Gmail Chat Disabled

The fact that it happened does not surprise me but that it took so long for our network administrators to figure it out does. And if you are wondering how do you disable Gmail's chat features on your network, you only need locking DNS lookups to chatenabled.mail.google.com , by returning 127.0.0.1 .

Community effort to create a single persistence model for the Java community

A community effort led by Sun Microsystems is aiming to create a single 'Plain Old Java Object' persistence model to provide a single object/relational mapping facility for Java app developers in J2SE and J2EE. Paul Krill writes In a letter to the “Java Technology Community” on Friday, specification leads on Java Specification Request (JSR) 220, which is the proposal for Enterprise JavaBeans 3.0, and JSR-243, for Java Data Objects, state that the two technologies feature divergent persistence models. “This divergence has caused confusion and debates among Java developers, and is not in the best of interest of the Java community,” said JSR-220 leader Linda DeMichiel who also is a Sun employee, and Craig Russell, a staff engineer at Sun who leads JSR-243. “In response to these requests [for an end to the unwanted divide], Sun Microsystems is leading a community effort to create a single POJO (Plain Old Java Object) persistence model for the Java community,” the letter said.
