New World Order - Asia

I found this interesting video from twitter and has been tweeted by Bill Gates 19th Dec 2010. Visualized presentation is very cool and fats too (I assume facts are correct). So watch by your self and see what is it about.



While most the western countries are benefiting all the resources people from many other countries are struggling to live.

Tell me you don't like this

Dear Readers , I found this song about two months ago from one of my facebook friend. I really liked the rhythm  of this song and listened over and over again. Then I looked for more songs of  this singer, he is "Chris Rea" and one of the  world’s best slide guitarist. And then I managed to find more songs of him, I have to say those are the most soothing songs I ever heard and very nice to hear while relaxing.

Now here is the song that I mentioned that I found.

Texas from Chris Rea


And here are some of my favorite songs from Chris Rea and my rating.

On the beach  - 8.5/10
Loving you  -  7.5/10
I can hear your heartbeat - 8/10
Josephine - 8/10
Its all gone - 8/10
Driving home for Christmas - 8/10
Winter song - 8/10
Nothing to fear - 8.5/10
The blue cafe - 9/10

There are many but these are some of songs that I like and hear often these days. Hope you would like too.

My First Prawn Curry

Since I'm living away from my home country Sri Lanka some time I badly want to eat foods in sri lankan way. Since its difficult to find sri lankan restaurant unlike Indian restaurants all over I decided to make foods myself. So I made this and it came very nice, I enjoyed with the basmati rice I made perfectly (another achievement for me :-P and I followed this). Later I may explain how I made my prawns :-)
Its a different experience when you cook something good and eat rather than going to expensive restaurants.

Ad free windows live mail

If you are using windows live mail you may already have experienced the MSN Ad appear in right side of screen.
Photobucket

Since I'm using my live mail account often this space taken by Ad was a headache for me. So today I found a solution to remove that Ad space from my screen (So dont have to close that Ad every time it appears).

1.)This works in Firefox only becoz its done by a Firefox add-on called Greasemonkey. I do not know much of the things that can be done by this Fierfox extension but I know that it can change the webpage layouts we load dynamically by configuring a script in it. So download this and install in your Firefox browser.

2.)Then you have to download this user script from http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/8228. Down load this using Firefox and it will get installed in to Greasemonkey when you installing. This is the script that does the trick removing MSN Ad giving more space. Then load you live mail again, and it will look like this.(see the Greasemonkey icon in bottom right hand side corner of my browser screenshot)

Be careful using Greasemonkey becoz scripts add from unreliable sources can be harmful.And you can enable disable it by clicking on Greasemonkey icon on your browser.

Use your live mail with more freedom using full screen with out Ads and don't have to pay for upgrading too

;-)

Enjoy !!

Best App iPhone for Cricket

The best iPhone app game to play cricket is CRICKET from SPINFAST. I have been playing this game for about one year now but still not fed up with it. Its super cool becoz of the way that we can play shots using touch gestures and how the game plays shots that we want (so natural). It behaves randomly sometime giving difficult time and we have to be damn precise with release time of short in order to hit a successful shot (I have purchased only batting).

And game has its own community area and which stores our statistics of each game, so we can check whats our statistics are and other people statistics too, for e.g. what is your position when considering average score of a batsmen from the games so far played. Users can play limited over matches like 3,6,10,20,50 over matches and if you win or loose a game the next match you play will have a target depend on the score that you scored in your last game. So for beginner it wold be easy. There are 4 levels of the game
1. Easy  2.Medium  3.Hard  4.Elite
if you are supper good with timing you can play Hard or Elite. But playing 3 over matches in Easy mode is fun and does not take much time too.

Here are some screen shots.
