Liverpool break the deadlock at White Hart Lane, and then one more to lead Tottenham 2-0. Voronin and Torres the goalscorers.
But here is the more important goal. Danny Murphy for Fulham. A lead for the Cottagers at Portsmouth hoists them to 36 points, level with Bolton and Reading. This would see Reading drop to the […]

Reading are having a rocking good outing at Derby. 3-0, and they have done all they can today to ensure survival. Fulham can still pour cold water on such hopes by scoring […]

At half time, Manchester United lead Wigan by one goal and Chelsea by two points (and 18 goals). The Sky Sports commentator is still harping on about a ball that hit Rio Ferdinand’s shoulder. The replays suggest even the Wigan players did not seem interested.
Boro have doubled their lead over Sven Goran Eriksson’s Man City, […]

The final day’s actions in the FA Premier League starts in a few minutes. The big news from the JJB Stadium is that Wayne Rooney is back at the head of Manchester United. I expect United to win 3-0.
The relegation fight could be just as interesting. Promises to be a fabulous day.

In trying to suggest stupid things with a view to change the rules after the game has been played, Avram Grant seems no different from Hillary Clinton.
Chelsea, the football club that is, are so boring this season, in that both their football and their manager are boring. At least when Jose Mourinho was around, folks […]

She didn’t master the rules
She underestimated the caucus states
She relied on […]

I came to read a post from friend Selva’s archives that lists the issues and problems that prevent voters from casting their votes, and then offers solutions. […]

As feared earlier, the Chennai Super Kings are faring poorly without the Aussies in the line-up. Two successive defeats, stemming from paltry totals, have temporarily derailed the Kings. Come on Chennai! Bring home the pride!

I didn’t realize Guam was holding its Democratic primaries today until I came across this article on CNN.
According to the article, Guam is a territory consisting of 19 villages. Reminds me of the fabled padhinettu patti (18 villages) so often cited in Tamil movies. Interestingly, Guam is also holding elections in parallel to elect the […]

While the 2007-08 season has been one of the closest fought in recent years in the Premier League with regard to the top three, the relegation battle has been terribly interesting as well.
This isn’t new. A couple of seasons ago, we witnessed Bryan Robson’s West Brom miraculously survive the relegation dog-fight by jumping from 20th […]

When I started using Office 2007 a year ago, I found the transition not difficult, but frustrating. In fact, even frustrating is a stronger word.
From a design perspective, it was difficult to fathom why the UI designers would not just tinker with, but significantly alter the menus. Considering that the core audience for Office is, […]
