    Hope Solo To Pose Naked? World Cup Star Hints At Nude Photo Shoot On Twitter

    Hope Solo To Pose Naked? World Cup Star Hints At Nude Photo Shoot On Twitter: "

    It appears that the fantasies of many libidinous male soccer fans (and many non fans, presumably) have been answered as the fetching goalkeeper of the U.S. Women’s National Team, Hope Solo, hinted on her twitter account on Tuesday that she will pose naked in the famed “Body Issue” of ESPN The Magazine.

    “The Body Issue” features male and female professional athletes posing naked in a tasteful fashion. Last year’s issue had photos of Serena Williams, Dwight Howard and Adrian Peterson in the buck, among many others.

    As she recently told The Huffington Post’s Jordan Schultz, Solo has been very busy in recent weeks following the conclusion of the Women’s World Cup, in which her U.S. team was defeated in the final by Japan.


    “I flew to LA when most people went home, and I did the media circuit there,” she told The Huffington Post. “I think that’s our responsibility; I need to keep the awareness of the game out there, but I also need to thank our fans.”

    Despite the tremendous outpouring of support the team received during the World Cup and the tireless efforts of Solo and her teammates since returning home, the Women’s Professional Soccer League continues to struggle, seemingly unable to carry the World Cup interest over to the domestic league.

    Windows Mobile 6.5 on HTC Touch Pro 2 and HTC Ozone for Verizon

    Windows Mobile 6.5 on HTC Touch Pro 2 and HTC Ozone for Verizon: "

    Verizon Wireless has released the system software upgrades it promised for two of its Windows phones, the HTC Touch Pro2 and HTC Ozone.

    HTC Touch Pro2 for VerizonThese devices were released last year with Windows Mobile 6.1, but they can now be upgraded to the latest version of Microsoft’s Mobile operating system.

    The HTC Touch Pro2 — a high-end model with a slide-and-tilt WVGA touchscreen and large keyboard — can be upgraded to Mobile 6.5 Professional.

    The HTC Ozone — an inexpensive messaging-oriented model with a QVGA display and small keyboard — can be upgraded to to Mobile 6.5 Standard.

    More about Windows Mobile 6.5

    The latest version of Microsoft’s operating system for high-end phones isn’t a major upgrade. The most significant changes are included in the Professional edition.

    This version of Windows Mobile 6.5 is more fingertip friendly, with many on-screen elements enlarged so users can select them without a stylus. Windows Mobile 6.5 also has more of a focus on consumers, as the Today Screen has been modified to include items like a music player and photo viewer.

    Both the Standard and the Pro editions come with a new version of Internet Explorer, and have access to Microsoft’s new on-device software store.

    An overview of the changes can be found in this article: Windows Mobile 6.5 Review.


    Upgrade Now

    These system software upgrades are available from the website of Verizon’s partner, PCD:

    HTC Touch Pro2

    HTC Ozone

    Both are free to download and use.

    Installing either of these ROM updates will erase everything that’s on the smartphone, so it’s important to back up any files before installation. This doesn’t apply to files that are on a removable memory card.

    Facebook Rewards $500 for Every Bug Reported

    Facebook Rewards $500 for Every Bug Reported: "

    Remember Google’s Chrome “Bug Bounty” program? Well, when Google released Google Chrome 12, it announced on its blog that it rewarded developers/researchers who found vulnerabilities (bugs) in its code. Earlier in August 2010, it was reported that Google gave away a total estimate of $10k of rewards. Mozilla too has the bug bounty program which pays $3,000 in hard cash plus a free Mozilla T-shirt for finding bugs!

    Facebook has joined Google and Mozilla, and is following the “Bug Bounty” program, by rewarding its security researchers. However, the reward offered is way too less. For security related bugs – cross site scripting flaws, for example – the company will pay a base rate of $500, but if they’re highly significant flaws, Facebook has promised to pay more. However, the company executives haven’t revealed the bonus reward.

    “To show our appreciation for our security researchers, we offer a monetary bounty for certain qualifying security bugs,” Facebook stated on its portal.

    Facebook launched a new Whitehat hacking portal where researchers can sign up for the program and report bugs. They have also published a list of about 42 researchers who have made “responsible disclosures” in the past.

    With over 750 million active users, looks like Facebook is highly concerned about its security issues. Facebook hired a computer hacker who was recently sued by Sony for hacking the online gaming system PlayStation 3, last month

    If a bug has been discovered, the researchers are asked to provide as much information as possible. In order to receive the award, a detailed explanation of steps is required and all legitimate reports will be investigated.

    Here’s the company’s policy -


    “If you give us a reasonable time to respond to your report before making any information public and make a good faith effort to avoid privacy violations, destruction of data and interruption or degradation of our service during your research, we will not bring any lawsuit against you or ask law enforcement to investigate you.”

    In addition to that, the researcher who reports a bug first is only rewarded. For instance, if two researchers find the same bug individually, the first one who reports it will be eligible to claim the reward.

    Facebook’s Bug Bounty Eligibility Rules

    In order to be eligible for the reward, researchers must follow to Facebook’s Responsible Disclosure Policy.



    SSC Tuatara: Shelby SuperCars Tuatara, World’s Fastest Production Car

    SSC Tuatara: Shelby SuperCars Tuatara, World’s Fastest Production Car: "

    Shelby Supercars has revealed the name of the car it hopes will become the fastest production car in the world: the SSC Tuatara.

    The Tuatara is the second hypercar from the American manufacturer, and marks a revolutionary advancement over the SSC Ultimate Aero TT.

    The 792kW/1357Nm Ultimate Aero TT set the record for the fastest production car in September 2007. Its speed of 412km/h (256mph) eclipsed the previous record, which was held by the Bugatti Veyron.

    The French manufacturer returned fire in June last year with the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, which shattered the SSC at a blistering 431km/h (268mph).

    Reports suggest Shelby Supercars is aiming to reach 275mph (443km/h) with the 993kW 7.0-litre twin-turbo V8-powered Tuatara.

    Shelby Supercars is yet to announce when the Tuatara will hit the road, although some have suggested it could be planning a record-breaking run before the end of the year.

    The Tuatara name is inspired by a reptile from New Zealand, which is a direct descendent of the dinosaurs. Translated directly from Maori it means ‘peaks on the back’ – fitting given the aerodynamic winglets at the rear.

    The Tuatara also has the fastest evolving DNA in the world, a trait that SSC founder Jerod Shelby believes his company shares.

    “Most manufacturers essentially use the same basic model and body shape for up to 10 years, while only making small refinements to it each year,” Mr Shelby said.

    “After only three years in production with the Ultimate Aero, SSC’s Tuatara is about to monumentally evolve in the areas of sophistication, design, aerodynamics and shear all‐around performance. We felt that the fastest evolving DNA was a perfect definition of SSC’s latest project.”

    Expect more details of the SSC Tuatara to be revealed in the coming months.

    Until then, let us know what you think of the name and the design.

    INDIAN Model Poonam Pandey Vows To Go Nude If India Wins Cricket World Cup

    INDIAN Model Poonam Pandey Vows To Go Nude If India Wins Cricket World Cup: "
    So… The biggest sporting event in the world that no one in America really cares about (except many New York taxi drivers, bodega owners, and Dunkin’ Donut clerks everywhere) happened earlier today: India defeated Pakistan to advance to the 2011 Cricket World Cup Final. That’s a pretty big deal in the Asian subcontinent since, you know, the two countries kinda, sorta hate each other and have gone to war four times in the last century. (In an initial gesture of potential reconciliation, the two countries’ prime ministers sat together at the game.) Anyway, one of the more interesting aspects of this year’s World Cup is how Indian model Poonam Pandey is taking a page straight from Larissa Riquelme’s playbook of fanatical national sports pride. The 20-year-old actress and model is vowing to strip naked. According to the Times of India, she’s doing it “to excite our boys to play better” and has “no qualms about undressing in the stadium, if law permits.” She adds, “I’m a cricket fanatic and I’m a diehard supporter of my nation. India needs a lot of support and this is my way of supporting the team.” The more important question: In terms of looks, is this chick even in the same league as Riquelme? Judge for yourself with more of her bikini photos the jump.

    ‘Swinging With The Finkels’ Trailer: Mandy Moore Gets Raunchy

    ‘Swinging With The Finkels’ Trailer: Mandy Moore Gets Raunchy: "

    She’s best known for her teen popstar days and sweet films such as “American Dreamz,” “A Walk To Remember,” and “The Princess Diaries.” She’s even voiced a Disney Princess, Rapunsel in “Tangled.”

    Now, Mandy Moore is growing up on the big screen — by getting super raunchy.

    The 27-year old singer/actress stars in the upcoming comedy, “Swinging With The Finkels,” as one half of a sexually stagnant couple looking for answers to their relationship drag. Her solution? She proposes to husband Martin Freeman (of UK “The Office” and “The Hobbit fame) that the two become swingers — or, a couple that has sex with another.

    In this trailer for the flick — which has already come out in the UK — Moore shows her new side with an especially embarrassing vibrator scene that involves Jerry Stiller. Not that any vibrator scene with Jerry Stiller wouldn’t be embarrassing, but this one is especially cringe-inducing.

    As Kelly was surrounded by shirtless men, her bra rode up and exposed her nipple as she performed several dance moves.

    She handled it in good spirits and after the show she tweeted, “New Jersey crowd was amazing!! hope you enjoyed the show and didnt mind the peekaboo LOL!!! #kanyeshrug #stuffhappens”

    Let’s just be happy that Kelly’s peekaboo moment is something that we can just shrug off, because stuff does happen!

    Gold rate today: Yellow metal at Rs 25,540 up Rs 298 from its previous close

    The October contract on the Multi Commodity Exchange of India was at Rs 25,540, up Rs 298 from its previous close.

    In morning benchmark gold futures extended gains by more than 3 per cent and hit a new peak of Rs 26,198 per 10 grams, tailing a rally in the world market and on a weak rupee. It has risen over 11 percent in August.

    Rupee fell sharply to its lowest in 10 weeks as a selloff in global equities ignited fears of foreign fund outflows.

    International spot gold gained more than 2 percent on Tuesday, roaring to all-time highs for a second consecutive session to stand above $1,750 as equity markets dived on growing fears of a global recession following last week's US credit downgrade.

    Asian shares tumbled on Tuesday as investors scrambled to adjust to a rapid downgrade in the outlook for US and global economic growth, but later staged a sharp rebound from early lows, helping cushion expected losses in Europe.

    US S&P 500 index futures pulled back sharply from earlier lows and crept into positive territory, while European index futures also pared early losses and were trading down around 0.5 percent.

    ‘It’s Always Sunny In Philadephia’: Fat Mac Explains Weight Gain At TCA Tour

    ‘It’s Always Sunny In Philadephia’: Fat Mac Explains Weight Gain At TCA Tour: "
    “It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia” has broken a lot of television rules over the years, with its assault on societal mores, racial boundaries and religious taboos. Like a demented, extreme Seinfeld, its stars are all fundamentally selfish, and, in pushing past its bourgeois New Yorker predecessor, are inherently unlikable to a a prude stranger to masochism.
    Now, the next frontier: getting fat.

    Series co-creator Rob McElhenney, who stars as the self-absorbed, very vain Mac on the show, gained 50 pounds for the upcoming season, creating a juicy storyline which sees his character try to deal with the sudden onset of obesity. But his intention wasn’t just to nail some easy fat jokes; at the Television Critics Association tour over the weekend, McElhenney said he was trying to make a statement with his expanded waistline.

    “It came when I was watching a very popular sitcom, and I noticed the people were getting better and better looking as the seasons were going on,” McElhenney said (via TV Guide). “I always thought that what we were trying to do on Sunny was the deconstruction of the sitcom.”
    To get there, McElhenney said that he ate 5,000 calories a day; he has since lost 20-25 pounds, but is still a far ways from his old weight.

    Its a similar sentiment to one he gave to Collider in July, and part of a larger theme for the show. Operating on a tight budget, the crew, which also includes Charlie Day, Glenn Howerton and Katilin Olson, tried to bring the sitcom back to its basics.

    “Our philosophy from the very beginning is when you’re making a situation comedy that it really is just a group of people sitting in a room talking to each other,” McElhenney (via The Hollywood Reporter). “We thought, ‘Well, let’s just figure out a way to do that as cheap as possible… we just wanted to break it down to its basics.”

    orge Posada Benched: Yankees Catcher Says ‘It’s Very Disappointing’

    Slumping Jorge Posada was pulled from the New York Yankees’ lineup Sunday night against Boston and manager Joe Girardi suggested the five-time All-Star might be on the bench for a while.
    “We’re going to see how this works,” Girardi said.
    A former catcher, the 39-year-old Posada has been the Yankees’ primary designated hitter this year against right-handed starters. But Girardi had Eric Chavez as the DH against Red Sox righty Josh Beckett.
    “It’s very disappointing. You want to be out there,” Posada said. “But right now it’s about winning ballgames. He told me he wants to put the best lineup out there.”
    Posada is just 3 for 18 this month and is hitting only .230 overall with nine homers and 31 RBIs. Chavez, who was activated from the 60-day disabled list on July 26, is batting .323.
    Said Girardi: “We think Jorge’s going to be a big part of the team. He was disappointed. You could see it.”

    JORGE POSADA
    It’s not the first time that Posada’s lack of production has affected his spot.
    In June, Posada asked out of the lineup when he was dropped to ninth in the order in a game against Boston in New York. Posada apologized the next day.
    “He’s just struggled to find a way to get his hits,” Girardi said. “It’s just been a tough year for him. … Jorgie and I have a relationship. That has gone a long way.”

    Real Wedding of the Week: Anna and Chris in Audubon, PA

    Photos: Lorraine Daley Wedding Photography and Allure West Studios
    Anna and Chris met in Chicago in 2007—they were teammates on a co-ed softball team and the couple became engaged in the fall of 2009. "Chris slipped a ring on my finger while I was sleeping," says Anna. "When I woke up, he was on one knee, asking me to check my finger." For their wedding day, she chose a silk organza gown with a sequined bow by Cymbeline, purchased at the salon in New York City. "It was the first dress that felt like 'me,'" Anna says. She made her hair accessory using netting and a vintage pin. Following the ceremony, cocktail hour was held in the nineteenth-century fieldstone barn. Guests enjoyed bluegrass music by Noggin Hill and sipped spiked Arnold Palmers—the couple's signature cocktail—in old-fashioned mason jars.

    The Worst iPhone Case Ever

    The Worst iPhone Case Ever: "

    We’ve seen our fair share of weird and creepy iPhone accessories, but this one might reach a new height. Coming from Japan, let me introduce you to the Hand Case.

    We don’t know much about this case. I can’t tell you where you can get it or how much it costs, but that shouldn’t be too much of an issue as I doubt you’d be interested in buying it anyway… (...)

    Week in Review | The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

    To wrap up this week, we decided to sift through the news and share what we are excited for, what we are sad about and what we just don't understand. Here is this week's The Good, The Bad and The Ugly:

    The Good: Karl Lagerfeld made headlines when he announced he was doing a second fast fashion collaboration (his first was with H&M in 2004). We were pleasantly surprised by his upcoming fall collection for Macy's: cheap, chic and it even has Cathy Horyn's stamp of approval. We're sold.

    The Bad: The Alexander McQueen exhibit, "Savage Beauty" at The Metropolitan Museum of Art was extended until August 7th. Haven't seen it already? Don't bother. The line is so long anyone who enters the museum has to wait an hour even if they aren't seeing the exhibit. Too bad.

    The Ugly: Kate Bosworth always looks chic. We love her Isabel Marant booties. What we are not loving? Her new dip dyed do. Or should I say "don't." So ugly.

    Blood Falls



    Blood Falls: "

    Blood Falls

    Natural time capsule containing an alien ecosystem
    This five-story, blood-red waterfall pours very slowly out of the Taylor Glacier in Antarctica's McMurdo Dry Valleys. When geologists first discovered the frozen waterfall in 1911, they thought the red color came from algae, but its true nature turned out to be much more spectacular.

    Image of Blood Falls located in Taylor Glacier, Antarctica | Blood Falls pouring into Lake Bonney. A tent can be seen in the lower left for size comparison. Photo from the United States Antarctic Program Photo Library.
    Roughly two million years ago, the Taylor Glacier sealed beneath it a small body of water which contained an ancient community of microbes. Trapped below a thick layer of ice, they have remained there ever since, isolated inside a natural time capsule. Evolving independently of the rest of the living world, these microbes exist in a place with no light or free oxygen and little heat, and are essentially the definition of 'primordial ooze.' The trapped lake has very high salinity and is rich in iron, which gives the waterfall its red color. A fissure in the glacier allows the subglacial lake to flow out, forming the falls without contaminating the ecosystem within.

    The existence of the Blood Falls ecosystem shows that life can exist in the most extreme conditions on Earth. Though tempting to make the connection, it does not prove, however, that life could exist on other planets with similar environments and similar bodies of frozen water—notably Mars and Jupiter's moon Europa—as such life would have to arise from a completely different chain of events.

    Even if it doesn't confirm the existence of extraterrestrial life, Antarctica's Blood Falls is a wonder to behold both visually and scientifically.


    Foods that Trigger Rheumatoid Arthritis Flare-Ups

    Do restaurant meals and snack attacks leave you with rheumatoid arthritis aches and pains? Certain foods – some of your favorites, like steak and cookies – may be causing flare-ups. Find out what you should stay away from and how to pick tasty substitutes. Plus, what’s your inflammation IQ? Take our quiz to find out…

    When you have rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a restaurant menu or open refrigerator can seem like a test: Can you find foods that satisfy your cravings without making joints swell, ache and stiffen?

    Definitely. It’s easier than you think.

    You can still eat meat – as long as you choose leaner cuts. Crave salty snacks? Eat nuts instead of chips.

    The key is following an anti-inflammatory diet, which helps you avoid RA flares. And these smarter food choices aren’t necessarily boring ones. Antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables, high-fiber grains and healthy fats can all help you reduce RA aches – in a matter of days.

    “I start my RA patients on a general anti-inflammatory diet, and they feel better within a week,” says internist Leo Galland, M.D., whose book The Fat Resistance Diet (Three Rivers Press) is based on anti-inflammatory foods.

    “Their pain and stiffness is greatly reduced.”

    Charlize Theron's Style Evolution (PHOTOS)


    Charlize Theron could make any mundane activity look glamorous, with her perfectly groomed blond mane and enviably long legs. Case in point: the South African-born beauty's many red-carpet hits over the past several years, while celebrating roles in films such as Monster, for which she won an Oscar.

    In honor of the Dior devotee's 36th birthday today, we've rounded up some of her most memorable looks. And expect to see plenty more of Theron on the awards show circuit: Her upcoming film Young Adult, which premieres at the Toronto Film Festival next month, has already been deemed Oscar bait by The Hollywood Reporter.

    Selina Kyle Catwoman Pic For 'The Dark Knight Rises

    Having already introduced Tom Hardy as Bane to the world with that creepy over the shoulder shot back in May, Christopher Nolan and the team behind his third and final epic Batman film, "The Dark Knight Rises," have secretly revealed another first look at a new star.
    Found in the official website, here is the first image of Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle, the alter-ego of the famous Catwoman. Hathaway, to say the least, looks much different than past Catwoman actresses, with the glasses, lack of any ears or mask and gigantic powerwheels motorbike setting her apart from Michelle Pfeiffer and Halle Berry.
    This is the latest release from the film, though the previous ones weren't exactly approved; paparazzi shots got clear images of the new Batmobile, as well as some epic fight scenes between the Dark Knight and Bane.
    For more, check out the film's first teaser trailer.
    UPDATE: More photos of Hathaway as Catwoman have surfaced from the set; see them below!

    ये किसने दुआ की थी बारिशों की!

    ये किसने दुआ की थी बारिशों की!: "
    भट्ठी से तप रहा शहर दोपहर को अचानक मीठी सी ठंडी लहर से झूमने लगा था।ऐसा लगा कि भगवान ने आसमान मे अपना एसी चालू कर दिया है।तभी दोपहर की चमकदार धूप पता नही क्यों शर्मा कर देहात की नई-नवेली दुल्हन की तरह अपने आप मे सिकुड़ने लगी और जनरल बोगी मे चिरौरी कर सीट के कोने मे बैठे बादल ने पसरना शुरू किया।थोड़ी ही देर मे आसमान पर उसका कब्जा था और मैं टाटा के शोरूम मे बैठा गाड़ी की ज़ल्दी डिलेवरी की दुआ करने लगा।मुझे आई(मां) के हाथ के बने प्याज के गर्मागर्म पकौड़े की याद सताने लगी थी।बरसात मे भीगने के बाद गरम पकौड़े खाने का मज़ा ही कुछ और होता है।

    थोड़ी ही देर मे गाड़ी के मिलते ही लगा कि मौसम के साथ-साथ भगवान भी मेहरबान है।गाड़ी मे बैठ कर बाहर निकलते-निकलते बारिश की बूंदो ने गाड़ी की छत को म्यूज़िकल इंस्ट्रूमेंट बना कर नया तराना छेड़ दिया था।उस अलौकिक संगीत मे डूबा हुआ मै कब घर पहुंचा पता ही नही लगा।गाड़ी से उतर कर सीधे अंदर भागा।आई ने पूछा आज इस समय्।मैने कहा कुछ नही थोड़ी देर मे भजिये बना कर खिलाओगी क्या?उन्होने कहा अभी बना देती हूं।मैने कहा नही अभी मे छत पर जा रहा हूं।बड़ा हो गया है बच्चा नही है तू…… मैने उनकी बात सुनने की बजाय छत की ओर भागना ज्यादा मुनासिब समझा।आई की आवाज़ मेरा पीछा करते हुये आई और कान मे फ़ुसफ़ुसा के कहा कि पता नही कब सुधरेगा।

    तब-तक़ बारिश की बूंदों ने भी धीरे-धीरे मतदान की तरह रफ़्तार पकड़ ली थी।अब उनका संगीत किसी विदेशी संगीत की तरह न समझ मे आने वाला होकर भी कानो मे मिश्री घोल रहा था।बूंदो के बोल समझ मे नही आ रहे थे मगर वे पैरो को थिरकने पर मज़बूर कर रहे थे।सर से लेकर पैर तक़ बारिश की बूंदों के रंग मे रंगने के बाद होश ही नही रहा कि समय कैसे बादलो की तरह उडता चला जा रहा है।बूंदे भी लगता है कि थक़ गई थी और उसकी रफ़्तार दम तोड़ने लगी थी।रह-रह कर गरजने और चमक्ने वाली बिज़ली भी खामोश होकर कही छुप कर बैठ गई थी।

    नीचे से आई की आवाज़ ने बारिश के संगीत का जादू तोड़ा।अरे भजिये लाऊं क्या?मै आ रहा हूं आई, कह कर मै नीचे उतरा।कपड़े बदले और गर्मा गरम भजिये की प्लेट और टमाटर और हरी मिर्च-धनिये की चटनी लेकर उपर आया।बालकनी मे बैठ कर फ़िर से ज़ोर मारती बारिश की बूंदो की छमाछम सुनते हुये भजिये का स्वाद लेने लगा।वाह क्या बात है?दुनिया मे इससे अच्छा भजिया और कोई बना ही नही सकता होगा,ऐसा मैने सोचा और अलौकिक संगीत के साथ स्वाद के समंदर मे गोते खाने लगा।

    अचानक़ बिजली रानी ने फ़िर से अपनी ताक़त दिखाना शुरू कर दिया और थोड़ी ही देर मे वो छतीसगढ के उत्पाती हाथियो की तरह आऊट आफ़ कंट्रोल होने लगी।उसकी उद्दंडता को देख बरखा रानी भला कंहा चुप रहने वाली थी।उसने भी अनुशासनहीनता मे कोई कमी नही की और अब गुलज़ार के गीतों सी मधुर बरखा रानी रामसे ब्रदर्स की फ़िल्म सी लगने लगी।रह-रह कर कड़कड़ाकर चमकने वाली बिजली ऐसा लग रहा था टार्च जलाकर देख रही हो कि है कोई जो उसका मुक़ाबला करने बाहर निकले।

    अरे अंदर आ जा,नीचे से आई की आवाज़ ने ध्यान बंटाया।मैने कहा आ रहा हूं।इतने मे फ़िर बिजली चमकी और ऐसा लगा कि सामने थोड़ी दूर कंही गिरी है।अरे उस तरफ़ तो झोपड़पट्टी है।ओफ़ बुरा हाल होगा वंहा तो।अभी तो शुरूआत है। बारिश जब जवान होगी तब तो और कहर बरपायेगी।अचानक़ मै कई साल पीछे चला गया।याद आ गया मुझे बारिश के मौसम का हाल बयान करना।तालाबों का ओव्हर-फ़्लो होना,नालियो-नालो का फ़ूट जानां। निचली बस्तियों मे पानी भर जाना।रात-रात भर जाग कर गुज़ारना। दूसरे अख़बार मे छपी, नवजात शिशु को छाती से लिपटाये मां की तस्वीर देख कर संपादक का बड़बड़ाना। और, थोड़ा और,थोड़ा और ह्यूमन स्टोरी लिखने के लिये कहना।रात भर टपकती छतों के पानी को गिनती के बरतनों मे जमा करके ऊलीचना। भूख से बिलखते बच्चो को, परेशान होकर चुप कराने की बजाये पीटना।झडी यानी लगातार होने वाली बारिश मे दूसरे और तीसरे दिन भी चुल्हा नही जला सकने की हताशा।रोज कमा कर खाने वालो के चेहरो पर गहराती निराशा।

    ओफ़ मै ये क्या सोचने लगा। मैने सिर को ज़ोरदार झटका दिया और उन खयालो को बाहर निकाल फ़ेकने की भरपूर कोशिश की।पर वो खयाल तो न चाहते हुये भी युपीए की सरकार की तरह रिपीट होने लगे।भूख से बिलखते बच्चे।गीले कपडो मे तरबतर घरों मे भरे पानी को बाहर फ़ेंकते लोग्।बिमारियो का संक्रमण रोकने के लिये मुंह पर मास्क पहने दवा बांटती मेडिकल टीम्।फ़ोटोग्राफ़र और विडीयोग्राफ़रो की टीम के साथ प्रभावित ईलाको का दौरा करते जन?प्रतिनिधि। अख़बारो मे गरीबी को छापने की होड़।मै परेशान हो गया ये क्या हो गया है मुझे।मै तो सारे काम-धाम ड्राप करके मौसम का मज़ा लेने घर आया था।तभी नीचे से आई ने आवाज़ दी, भजिया और दूं क्या बेटा?नही आई,पता नही, ये नही, मेरे मुंह से कैसे निकला।मुझे याद आया। एक ऐसी ही तूफ़ानी बारिश की अपनी रिपोर्ट का शीर्षक्।'ये किसने दुआ की थी बारिशों की'।मैने कुर्सी से उठते हुये प्लेट मे बचे भजिये के आखिरी टुकड़े को मुंह मे ड़ाला।पता नही क्यों आज आई के हाथ के भजिये मे वो स्वाद में वो मज़ा नही आया.

    आखिरी मुशायरा

    आखिरी मुशायरा: "
    मार्च २००९ में मुशायरा और कवि सम्मलेन करवाया गया था. २०१० में मंत्रालय की अनुमति नहीं मिली.
    इस साल मार्च , २०११ में अनवर अफ़ाकी साहब यहाँ -वहाँ खूब भाग दौड कर रहे थे कि किसी तरह इस साल अनुमति मिल जाये .मैंने दिगंबर नासवा जी को भी निमंत्रण भेजा था कि वे भी भाग लें परंतु उन्हें उस तारीख को शहर से बाहर जाना था.

    अलेन में मुशायरा और कवि सम्मलेन करवाने की शुरुआत ग्यारह साल पहले इंडियन सोशल सेण्टर में अब्दुल सत्तार शेफ़्ता जी ने की थी. मुझे भी इस मंच पर पहला अवसर देने का श्रेय उन्हीं को जाता है.शेफ़्ता साहब पिछले कुछ सालों से अबू धाबी शिफ्ट हो गए थे .
    तय दिन के ठीक दो दिन पहले आयोजन के लिए अनुमति मिल गयी.२४ तारीख को शाम सब एकत्र हुए.कम समय के नोटिस पर भी हर साल से कहीं अधिक भीड़ इस बार दिखाई दी.९ बजे से १२ बजे तक की अनुमति थी तो १० बजे किसी तरह कार्यक्रम शुरू हुआ. स्वागत भाषण के बाद कवियों /शायरों का सम्मान [रवायत के मुताबिक प्रोग्राम के आखिर में होता है वह इस बार पहले ही कर दिया गया]शेफ़्ता साहब को सेंटर में दी गयी उनकी सेवाओं के लिए खास सम्मान दिया गया.सांस्कृतिक और साहित्यिक गतिविधियों में उनकी भागीदारी सराही गयी.

    प्रोग्राम रात १० ३० बजे शुरू हुआ ..पहले स्थानीय [अलेन के ]कवियों को आमंत्रित किया गया उसके बाद दुबई /शारजाह/अबू धाबी के कवियों को पढ़ना था.खुद अनवर साहब जो प्रोग्राम के संचालक थे उन्होंने अपना कलाम पढ़ा.फिर अब्दुल रज्जाक साहब ने तरन्नुम में अपनी गज़ल सुनायी.अब जैसे ही शेफ़्ता जी को आवाज़ दी गयी..हाल तालियों से गूंज उठा.उनकी लोकप्रियता हिन्दुस्तानी और पाकिस्तानी दोनों ही सुनने वालों में खूब थी.उन्होंने अपनी ताज़ा ग़ज़ल सुनायी..माहौल बहुत खुशनुमा हो गया था.

    उनके बाद मुझे मंच पर पढ़ने के लिए बुलाया गया .मैं ने अपनी एक नज़्म [फसाना-ए-शब-ए-ग़म'
    ]
    पढ़ी ,नज़्म की अंतिम पंक्ति थी 'आगोश में तुझको ,कज़ा के ही
    अब तो चैन आएगा!'

    जिससे सुनने के बाद एक अलग सा वातावरण हो गया..जहाँ ' कज़ा '[मौत] की बात आये वहाँ ऐसा ही होता है ..
    मुझ से श्रोता गण गीत -या गज़ल तरन्नुम में सुनाने की फरमाईश करने लगे ..मैं ने अपना गीत 'बरखा और बाँवरी 'शुरू ही किया था ..एक पंक्ति के बाद माईक में डिस्टर्बेंस होने लगी .शेफ़्ता साहब उठे और संचालक का माईक ले कर मेरे माईक से बदल दिया ..फिर भी एक पंक्ति के बाद गडबड हुई तब वह साउंड अरेंजेर/ मिक्सर के पास बैठे व्यक्ति के पास गए ..उससे दूसरा माईक लिया और मुझे दिया मैं ने पूछा...अब ठीक है???उन्होंने कहा...हाँ ,अब ठीक है ,आप पढ़िये .
    वे मुड़े और गिर पड़े , एकदम मेरे पाँव के पास मेरे पीछे...मुझे लगा कि शायद मंच के कारपेट में पाँव उलझ गया होगा.परंतु वे मंच पर बेहोश पड़े थे.एक अजीब सा सुकून था उनके खामोश चेहरे पर .मुंह पर पानी के छींटे दिए गए मगर कोई हरकत नहीं हुई.

    सुनने वालों में इत्तेफाक से अलेन के सब से बड़े सरकारी हस्पताल के सीनियर कार्डियोलोजिस्ट [सलाहकार] डॉ.सिद्दीकी भी बैठे थे.उनके साथ एक और बड़े डॉक्टर थे .वे दोनों तुरंत मंच पर आये ..उन्होंने कृत्रिम साँस और कार्डिएक मसाज दिया , हस्पताल शिफ्ट किया गया.वेंटिलेटर पर रखा. उन्हें होश नहीं आया था.
    यह सारा मंजर मेरी आँखों के सामने हो रहा था और मैं कुछ समझ नहीं पा रही थी.हम सभी प्रार्थना कर रहे थे कि उन्हें होश आ जाये.लेकिन नियति को कुछ और ही मंज़ूर था ..

    शुक्रवार के दिन सुबह के २ बजे उनके परलोक सिधार जाने का दुखद समाचार मिला.उनकी मृत्यु के एक हफ्ते बाद अब्दुल रज़्ज़ाक साहब का दिल के दौरे से इंतकाल हो गया.इन्होंने उसी दिन दूसरे नंबर पर ग़ज़ल पढ़ी थी.ये दोनों ही बहुत अच्छे दोस्त भी थे.
    आज तक वह सारा मंज़र मेरे ज़हन से हटता नहीं है.सच ही है ,समय कब किस का हुआ?

    48 वर्षीय शेफ़्ता साहब की लोकप्रियता इतनी थी कि उनके अंतिम दर्शन के लिए हस्पताल में रिकॉर्ड लोग जमा हुए थे.सेंटर में उनके लिए शोक सभा रखी गयी. मैं नहीं जा सकी क्योंकि मैं इंडिया गयी हुई थी.
    शेफ़्ता साहब २३ सालों से यू ए ई में सपरिवार रहते थे.वे स्कूल में गणित और अंग्रेज़ी पढाया करते थे .
    हिंदी -उर्दू में लिखने वाले एक शायर के रूप में उनकी बहुत लोकप्रियता थी.अपने अच्छे स्वभाव के कारण भी वे लोगों के प्रिय हो जाते थे.रात -बिरात किसी भी समय शेफ़्ता साहब को काम बता दीजीये वे दौड -धूप कर के अपने सारे प्रयास लगा देते थे.

    उनके मधुर स्वभाव और हर किसी की मदद करने की आदत को आज भी याद किया जाता है.
    उस मुशायरे की विडियो क्लिप नहीं मिल सकी, न ही तस्वीरें..चूँकि उस दिन शाम को मुशायरे में जाने का मेरा बिलकुल मन नहीं था इसलिए मैं अपना केमरा साथ नहीं ले कर गयी थी.
    अपनी आँखों के सामने कुछेक पलों में सब कुछ घटते देखा और लगा कि वक्त के आगे हम सभी बेबस हैं.

    शेफ़्ता साहब की यह ग़ज़ल पढ़िये जो उन्होंने उस आखिरी मुशायरे में पढ़ी थी.यह ग़ज़ल मुझे उर्दू में लिखी मिली थी जिसे ग़ज़लकार दानिश [मुफलिस ] जी ने देवनागरी स्क्रिप्ट में बदल कर दिया है.साथ ही उन्होंने उर्दू के शब्दों के अर्थ भी दिए हैं.दानिश जी का दिल से आभार प्रकट करती हूँ.
    शेफ़्ता साहब आप जहाँ भी हैं वहाँ खुश रहिये.ईश्वर आप की आत्मा को शांति दे.आप को हमारी भावपूर्ण श्रद्धांजलि ...

    Value that is found in friendships is often the result of a friend demonstrating the following on a consistent basis:

    The tendency to desire what is best for the other

    Sympathy and empathy

    Honesty, perhaps in situations where it may be difficult for others to speak the truth, especially in terms of pointing out the perceived faults of one’s counterpart

    Mutual understanding and compassion

    Trust in one another (able to express feelings – including in relation to the other’s actions – without the fear of being judged); able to go to each other for emotional support

    Positive reciprocity – a relationship is based on equal give and take between the two parties.

    Friendship is a little more trust,

    A little less try,

    A little more laugh,

    And a little less cry,

    A little more WE and a little less I.

    Happy Friendship Day!!!

    Kajal Agarwal not insecure by Ajay’s presence in ‘Singham’…: "

    South actress Kajal Agarwal, is all set to make her debut in Bollywood alongside actor Ajay Devgn this Friday, with ‘Singham’. The beautiful actress isn’t really insecure about Ajay Devgn grabbing the entire limelight, instead, she says she had a blast working with the actor.

    Kajal says, “Its not the amount of screen space that I have but it is the quality of work that I deliver. Yes, its an Ajay Devgn film but I will stand out with my performance. I am sure after watching the film people won’t stop loving me.”

    The actress adds, “Its better for me to act with Ajay as acting is second nature to him. We have rehearsed together and he is very co-operative. He does not need rehearsals he gave me very important tips.”o

    Kevin Pietersen Hits Double Century(202*) against INDIA

    Kevin Pietersen Hits Double Century(202*) against INDIA: "

    Kevin Pietersen was not out on 202 when England declared.The consensus seems to be that Pietersen probably should have been given out when he tucked the ball down to Rahul Dravid, but we care more about what happened after that. He wasn’t given out and India had another 196 opportunities to dismiss him, but didn’t.

    Kevin Pietersen

    As many of you know, we never really accepted that Kevin Pietersen was in some dire run of form, but he still surprised us a bit with this innings. To go all Tour de France for the third time this week, he drifted along in the slipstream of Bell and Prior, conserving his energy in the mountainous morning and evening sessions. Then, when the England peloton approached the flat of an evening session featuring three fully-knackered frontline bowlers, he burst out and sprinted like Mark bloody Cavendish.

    On Sky, they called Matt Prior the catalyst, which may well be true, but it’s worth keeping things in perspective. Kevin Pietersen scored three times as many runs as Prior.

    As for England’s declaration, 474 really doesn’t seem like that many runs to us. We’d have been tempted to try and inflict some more wear and tear on the immense Praveen Kumar being as we’re at the start of an overly rapid four-Test series, but maybe we’re going too far with the long range planning with that. After all, the guy who wins the Tour de France will have done so by picking the right times to attack.

    Download OS X Lion 10.7.2 Build 11C26 (Beta): "

    Apple may be releasing OS X 10.7.1 to the public in a matter of days, with developer signaling that version 10.7.2 is already being made available for download through the iCloud for Lion beta section.

    People in a position to know are signaling that a combo Lion update labeled Build 11C26 is now available for download.

    Unlike all previous OS X seeds, Mac OS X 10.7.2 is being distributed through the iCloud for Lion beta channel.

    It’s a combo update required to test Apple’s suite of web services set to make a public debut this fall.

    “You must install OS X Lion 10.7.2 in order to use iCloud for OS X Lion beta 5,” Apple tells those enrolled with its $99-a-year developer program.



    “This pre-release version of OS X Lion is being provided solely for testing iCloud. (Mac Developer Program membership is required),” reads Apple’s note to developers.

    Also offered through the same channel is iCloud the iCloud Add-on installer for OS X Lion which installs iCloud Beta 5.

    Earlier this week, Apple rolled out iOS 5 Beta 4, a new test build of the company’s mobile operating system for developers to play around with.

    Just like iCloud, iOS 5 will be available publicly this fall.

    Both OS X Lion and iOS 5 are tightly integrated with iCloud, “a breakthrough set of free new cloud services that work seamlessly with applications on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac or PC to automatically and wirelessly store your content in iCloud and automatically and wirelessly push it to all your devices,” as Apple itself puts it.

    iCloud will replace services like Dropbox on many users’ computers as it wirelessly syncs pretty much every type of file on all of a user’s devices almost instantly whenever anything changes on one of them.

    Uruguay Wins Copa America 2011, Beats Paraguay 3-0 Photos

    Uruguay Wins Copa America 2011, Beats Paraguay 3-0 Photos: "

    Diego Forlan scored twice and Uruguay won the Copa America for a record 15th time after beating Paraguay 3-0 Sunday.

    Luis Suarez also scored for Uruguay, which followed up a semifinal appearance at the 2010 World Cup by winning South America’s championship for the first time since 1995.

    “We played as a group,” said Suarez, who was selected as the best player of the tournament. “I think when groups are united like this, everyone together and going for the same thing, you can get things done.”

    At roughly 3.5 million people – about the population of Connecticut – Paraguay has the lowest population of teams in the tournament.

    Argentina and Brazil were upset in the quarterfinals of the Copa. Uruguay ousted Argentina on penalties and Paraguay eliminated Brazil, also in a shootout.


    Argentina has won the title 14 times, Brazil eight. Brazil had won four of the past five titles.Uruguay was the clear favorite going into the final, wrapping up a tournament filled with surprises.

    Not only had Brazil and Argentina been sent home early, but Venezuela reached the third-place match on Saturday before losing 4-1 to Peru. Those two countries have been the weakest in the region in recent years, but they suddenly look formidable going into regional World Cup qualifying later this year.

    Uruguay’s squad featured 20 of the 23 players it took to the World Cup a year ago, showing teamwork and unselfish play with none of the vast star power of Argentina or Brazil.

    “The important thing was getting started well,” said Suarez, who had four goals – one fewer than Peru’s Paolo Guerrero. “With two goals in the first half, I think it was very difficult for them to come back.”

    Suarez gave Uruguay the lead in a match it dominated in the opening minutes. Receiving a pass in the area, the Liverpool forward beat defender Dario Veron to score from a deflected left-footed shot that went in off the far post behind goalkeeper Justo Villar.

    Uruguay could have even have led in the second minute, when Villar stopped Diego Lugano’s point-blank header.

    Forlan, who was voted the best player at last year’s World Cup, made it 2-0 by lashing a left-footed shot from 12 yards that left Villar flat-footed. He was set up after teammate Egidio Arevalo Rios had stolen the ball from a Paraguay player near midfield.

    Uruguay won fairly and played better,” Paraguay defender Paulo Da Silva said. “Uruguay is a beautiful champion.”
