Haryanvis in bejing olympics 2008


Haryana has given many players to india.Sports is an important part of life for poeple in haryana.This is despite not many state of art facilities,infrastructure like the big cities in some other parts of india.

Nine players out of a 56-member Indian contingent for Beijing Olympics, belonged to Haryana. Four out of five boxers, hailed from Haryana.
Having made the cut for Beijing, the foursome—Akhil Kumar, Vijender Singh, Jitender and Dinesh—are now the poster boys for Bhiwani,Haryana a new powerhouse of Indian boxing.

Chief National Boxing Coach G.S. Sandhu calls Bhiwani the "Cuba of India", a title the town has earned in the last decade by doggedly nurturing a deep-seated passion for boxing among its rural youth.


Saina Nehwal who won the 2006 Philippines Open, to become the first Indian woman to win a four-star badminton event is also an Hisar,Haryana born.Both her parents were former state champions in Haryana.She has been the runner-up twice in the National women's single event, losing both times to Aparna Popat in the final.
She holds the Under-19 women's single title.

Sandeep Sejwal, a 19 yr old Delhiite jat also has his roots in haryana, he has become the first indian breaststroke swimmer to qualify 4 d beijing olympics.

Zigbee in mobiles

The ZigBee Alliance is expanding into the telecom market with a new initiative extending mobile telephone networks while providing new capabilities for mobile phone users.

The new ZigBee Telecom Profile is designed to feature secure mobile payment, information delivery, health care monitoring, peer-to-peer small data sharing and other location based services and features.

ZigBee mobile devices include mobile telephones and personal digital assistants with embedded ZigBee technology or using a ZigBee subscriber identity module (SIM) card.

These devices act as a mobile terminal and/or as a sensor control device anywhere there is a ZigBee network or ZigBee access point.


Pantech&Curitel showcases world first Zigbee phone at Zigbee Alliance Festival. Zigbee is one of the wireless data transmission solutions with home networking automation function. Korea’s Korwin and Orange Logic share its credit in the development – home networking and location based services(LBS) respectively.

The festival was hosted by Zigbee Alliance, an association of companies working together toward future Zigbee products on global standard. At the ceremony, Pantech&Curitel exhibits the world’s first Zigbee-applied mobile phone.
According to Mi-Hyang Han, a person in charge at Pantech&Curitel, “The worldwide IT industry is progressing toward wireless ubiquitous environments. A mobile phone, becoming more like a commodity, is likely to be a hub of upcoming ubiquitous era.”

Zigbee technology, for example, makes it possible to control the home network. At the festival, the Zigbee-applied P1 of Pantech&Curitel will demonstrate intellectual home/building networking service such as controlling electrical appliances, alarming mail receiving, checking temperature and humidity, sending mobile messages to alarm in case of trespass.

4G Standards

While most wireless operators are still struggling to understand how to properly setup and utilize their third generation wireless networks, the race for fourth generation network technologies has already begun.
This is not a contradiction as current 3G networks will be operated and enhanced for many years to come. Furthermore, specification, development, rollout and mass production of 4G devices all take their time. Thus, most 4G systems are at least five years or more away from the mass market.
So why will there be a need for 4G networks and which standards are competing on a global scale?


There are two main goals of 4G wireless systems. First of all, more bandwidth and Secondly, 4G networks will no longer have a circuit switched subsystem as current 2G and 3G networks. Instead, the network is based purely on the Internet Protocol (IP).

Currently, 3G networks are transforming into 3.5G networks as carriers add technologies such as HSDPA and HSUPA to UMTS. Staying with the UMTS example, such 3.5G systems are realistically capable of delivering about 6-7 MBit/s in a 5 MHz band. Numbers which are twice as high are circulating as well. However, these speeds can only be reached under ideal conditions (very close to the antenna, no interference, etc) which are rarely found in the real world.


Three different standards are being put together at the moment:WiMAX:
Air interface specs are already pretty well put together and the technology definitely has a technical lead over the competition as far as this is concerned. The WiMAX forum however is still working on standards for the radio access network and the core network which narrows its lead over other technologies. UMTS Long Term Evolution (LTE):
This standard is developed by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), the same standards body already responsible for the GSM, GPRS, UMTS and HSDPA standards. EVDO Rev C:
This standard is developed by the Third Generation Partnership Project 2 (3GPP2), the body responsible for CDMA and EVDO.

Bajaj to launch Ninja Soon


Bajaj auto is readying itself to launch Kawasaki Ninja ,the 250 CC bike in india pretty soon.
It was also displayed by bajaj auto at the auto expo in delhi.
The expected price of this bike will be around 2lk.
Since its inception in 1986, the Ninja 250 has been among the best-selling bikes in Kawasaki’s line up. In fact, Kawi sold more little Ninjas in 2007 than anything else in its lineup! Most buyers are beginners, but many keep the highly fuel-efficient little Ninja for commuting.
Some of the vital stats of the beauty:

Engine Type Four-stroke, liquid-cooled, DOHC, parallel twin
Displacement 248 cc
Maximum Torque 18.1 lb-ft @ 10,000 rpm
Transmission 6-Speed
Fuel Tank Capacity 4.8 gal.
Dry Weight 304 lb.
Color
Candy Persimmon Red, Metallic Phantom Silver, Ebony, Candy Plasma Blue
I am looking forward for its arrival.
