SEHWAG' s 219 off 149 balls and TENDULKAR 's 200



Indian opener Virender Sehwag hit a record 219 off 149 balls as India piled up 5-418 in the fourth one-day international    against the West Indies at Indore

Sehwag surpassed Tendulkar’s score when, on 197, he cut Andre Russell to the point fence for his 23rd boundary.
The Delhi batsman hit 25 boundaries and seven sixes before he was caught in the deep off Kieron Pollard.




                                                                                       
                                                
                                                                                                   Tendulkar's 200






84.NOW ....Who  holds the record for highest score in   one ONEDAY INTERNATIONAL innings ? SEHWAG .....no ...my dear friends.....no

                 Sehwag was closing in on the highest score ever in an ODI — 229 by Australian women's cricket     
 legend Belinda Clark — when he was dismissed by Kieron Pollard.
                            Sehwag's innings was the third highest in all limited overs cricket. The record is still held by Alistair Brown, who had made 268 in a county game for Surrey against Glamorgan in 2002.

The only other score above Sehwag's is 222 not out by Graeme Pollock for Eastern Province against Border in 1974-75

Gaddafi-The Libyan Dictator-captured alive and killed-watch original video

                            
Muammar Gaddafi , the autocratic ruler] of Libya from 1969, when he seized power in a bloodless military coup, until 2011 when his government was overthrown in a civil war which consisted of a popular uprising aided by a foreign intervention. His 42-year rule prior to the uprising made him the fourth longest-ruling non-royal leader since 1900, as well as the longest-ruling Arab leader.He variously styled himself as 'the Brother Leader' and 'Guide of the Revolution'; in 2008 a meeting of traditional African rulers bestowed on him the title 'King of Kings'.
On 17 February 2011, major political protests began in Libya against Gaddafi's government. During the following week these protests gained significant momentum and size, despite stiff resistance from the Gaddafi government. By late February the country appeared to be rapidly descending into chaos and the government lost control of most of Eastern Libya. .His military forces killed rebelling civilians, and relied heavily on the Khamis Brigade, led by one of his sons Khamis Gaddafi, and on tribal leaders loyal to him. He imported foreign mercenaries to defend his government, reportedly paying Ghanaian mercenaries as much as US$2,500 per day for their services.
Gaddafi's violent response to the protesters prompted defections from his government. Gaddafi's "number two" man, Abdul Fatah Younis, Mustafa Abdel-Jalil and several key ambassadors and diplomats resigned from their posts in protest Other government officials refused to follow orders from Gaddafi, and were jailed for insubordination.
At the beginning of March 2011, Gaddafi returned from a hideout, relying on considerable amounts of Libyan and US cash that had apparently been stored in the capital. Gaddafi's forces had retaken momentum and were in shooting range of Benghazi by March 2011 when the UN declared a no fly zone to protect the civilian population of Libya. On 30 April the Libyan government claimed that a NATO airstrike killed Gaddafi's sixth son and three of his grandsons at his son's home in Tripoli. Government officials said that Muammar Gaddafi and his wife were visiting the home when it was struck, but both were unharmed. Gaddafi son's death came one day after the Libyan leader appeared on state television calling for talks with NATO to end the airstrikes which have been hitting Tripoli and other Gaddafi strongholds since the previous month. Gaddafi suggested there was room for negotiation, but he vowed to stay in Libya. Western officials remained divided over whether Gaddafi was a legitimate military target under the United Nations Security Council resolution that authorized the air campaign. US Defense Secretary Robert Gates said that NATO was "not targeting Gaddafi specifically" but that his command-and-control facilities were legitimate targets—including a facility inside his sprawling Tripoli compound that was hit with airstrikes 25 April.

 On 20 October 2011,  Gaddafi had been captured that morning by Libyan forces near his hometown of Sirte in a tunnel west of the town ( / 31.195614; 16.521364).] He had been in a convoy of vehicles that was targeted by a French air strike on a road about 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) west of Sirte, killing dozens of loyalist fighters. Gaddafi survived but was wounded and took refuge with several of his bodyguards in a drain underneath the road west of the city. NTC fighters found the group and took Gaddafi prisoner. Shortly afterwards, he was shot dead.  Gaddafi's body was being flown to Misrata.(Taken from wikipedia)

Dennis richie- 'a royal exit'

Dennis MacAlistair Ritchie (September 9, 1941 – October 12, 2011) , an American computer scientist notable for developing C and for having influence on other programming languages, as well as operating systems such as Multics andUnix.He died on October 12, 2011 at the age of 70 after a prolonged illness. He received the Turing Award in 1983 and the National Medal of Technology1998 on April 21, 1999. Ritchie was the head of Lucent Technologies System Software Research Department when he retired in 2007.

Ritchie was best known as the creator of the C programming language and a key developer of the Unix operating system, and as co-author of the definitive book on C, The C Programming Language, commonly referred to as K&R (in reference to the authors Kernighan and Ritchie).
Ritchie's invention of C and his role in the development of UNIX alongside Ken Thompson has placed him as an important pioneer of modern computing. The C language is widely used today in application, operating system, and embedded system development, and its influence is seen in most modern programming languages. UNIX has also been influential, establishing concepts and principles that are now precepts of computing.
Ritchie was elected to the National Academy of Engineering in 1988 for "development of the 'C' programming language and for co-development of the UNIX operating system.

         RICHIE'S  Quotes


  • "I am not now, nor have I ever been, a member of the demigodic party."
  • "Usenet is a strange place."
  • "UNIX is very simple, it just needs a genius to understand its simplicity."
  • "C is quirky, flawed, and an enormous success."(this article is taken from wikipedia)
