Anand may lose his World Championship title today?

On Thursday, playing with whites, Viswanathan Anand suffered his third loss at the hands of Magnus Carlsen in the World Chess Championship. 

There is just half a point of difference between 22-year-old Carslen and world championship which at the moment looks certain and the Norwegian can seal the title today itself.

Anand went into the ninth game with a two-game deficit and later revealed that there was nothing else he could do but go for the kill in the ninth game on Thursday.



"In general, the match situation did not leave me with much of a choice. I had to give it a shot, I saw a couple of moments where I could exit but I decided to give it a shot. It seemed very dangerous for black," the Anand said after the match.

He said that excitement led him to commit a blunder on the 28th move.

"In a sense it was irresponsible or silly but I spent about 40 minutes on this move and then I suddenly saw his response. And for a second I got excited with this knight move (the blunder) and simply missed. As soon as I played the knight move I saw what I had done," the defending champion said.

Mangalayaan sends first pictures of Earth regarding "Helen"


 The Mars orbiter spacecraft's first images of Earth have reached Isro's Indian Deep Space Network in Byalalu, about 30km from here.

On Thursday, Isro released one image taken on November 19 which captures the Indian subcontinent. It was taken using its Mars Colour Camera (MCC) from 67,975km with a resolutionof 3.53km per pixel. The image was taken as part the payload testing activity which commenced last week.

The MCC, which is meant for optical imaging of the Martian surface, was one of the first payloads to be tested. "It's ideal to conduct a test on the functioning of all payloads before the craft leaves the sphere of Earth's influence. The MCC is working well, as indicated by the images we've received," a senior Isro official told TOI.

The tri-colour camera will send images and information about the Martian surface from September 2014 after the craft reaches its designated elliptical orbit around Mars. "The images and information will be useful to monitor the Martian weather. The camera will be used to monitor two of its satellites, Phobos and Deimos," the official said.

MCC will also provide context information for other payloads aboard MOM, another official said, adding that the testing of the four other payloads will be done next week. "Information received from other payloads may not be published as they're not of public interest. They'll be in the form of scientific data which will be released later," he said.

Here is picture from the Mars mission:


We can clearly see the Helen Cyclone coming towards Andhra Pradesh.

ISRO to put Mars Mission spacecraft into Martian orbit on December 1




Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), chief Dr K Radhakrishnan on Tuesday said the Indian Mars mission spacecraft will be moved from the earth- centric orbit towards the sun-centric orbit on December 1.

“The Mars orbital spacecraft is in good health. The apogee (farthest point from earth of the spacecraft is nearly 1.93 lakh km. On the first of December, we expect to move the spacecraft from the earth’s orbit towards Mars. That’s the main action,” he said.

ISRO has successfully raised the orbit of the Mars Spacecraft for the fifth time since it launch on November 5 this year into the earth-bound orbit by the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV-C25).
The Mars Orbiter Mission blasted off from Satish Dhawan Space Centre in India's Sriharikota with the satellite scheduled to start orbiting Mars by September, searching for methane and signs of minerals.
Only the United States, Europe, and Russia have sent probes that have orbited or landed on Mars. Probes to Mars have a high failure rate and a success will be a boost for national pride, especially after a similar mission by China failed to leave Earth's orbit in 2011.

The probe's 4.5 billion rupee price tag is a fraction of the cost of NASA's (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution) mission, also due to launch in November.

Analysts say India could capture more of the USD 304 billion global space market with its low-cost technology.

Even so, it has drawn criticism in a country suffering from high levels of poverty, malnutrition and power shortages and experiencing its worst slowdown in growth in ten years.
India's ties with its neighbour are marked as much by competition as cooperation. Government scientists deny any space race, but analysts say India has stepped up its programme because of concerns about China's civilian and military space technology.
With the mars mission being successful so far, Dr Radhakrishnan said: “As far as the GSLV is concerned, we are now assembling the vehicle, the first stage has been assembled already, the four strap-ons are getting ready for assembling and by December we must have the flight of GSLV (Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle)-D5.


India's space programme began 50 years ago and developed rapidly after Western powers imposed sanctions in response to a nuclear weapons test in 1974, spurring scientists to build advanced rocket technology. Five years ago, its Chandrayaan probe landed on the moon and found evidence of water.
The relative prowess in space contrasts with poor results in developing fighter jets by India's state-run companies.

The Mars Orbiter Mission plans to search for methane in the Martian atmosphere, the chemical strongly tied to life on Earth. Recent measurements made by NASA's rover, Curiosity, show only trace amounts of it on Mars.

India's mission will also study Martian surface features and mineral composition.

A brief on Sachin Biography



Childhood


      
 Sachin Tendulkar was born at Nirmal Nursing Home on 24 April 1973 to Rajni Tendulkar and Ramesh Tendulkar. Due to his mischievous and annoying tendencies, Ajit introduced him to cricket in 1984. He introduced the young Sachin to Ramakant Achrekar, a famous cricket coach and a club cricketer of repute, at Shivaji Park, Dadar. Achrekar was impressed with Tendulkar's talent and advised him to shift his schooling to Sharadashram Vidyamandir High School, a school at Dadar which had a dominant cricket team and had produced many notable cricketers. In 1987, at the age of 14, he attended the MRF Pace Foundation in Madras (now Chennai) to train as a fast bowler, but Australian fast bowler Dennis Lillee, who took a world record 355 Test wickets, was unimpressed, suggesting that Tendulkar focus on his batting. He was involved in an unbroken 664-run partnership in a Lord Harris Shield inter-school game against St. Xavier's High School in 1988 with his friend Vinod Kambli.

Marriage


       On 24 May 1995, at the age of 22, Tendulkar married Anjali. She is six years his senior. They have two children, Sara (born 12 October 1997) and Arjun (born 24 September 1999).

Career

       Tendulkar made his Test debut against Pakistan in Karachi in November 1989 aged just 16 years and 223 days. Tendulkar further raised his reputation as a future great during the 1991–1992 tour of Australia held that included an unbeaten 148 in the third Test Sydney and 114 on a fast, bouncing pitch in the final Test at Perth against a world-class pace. Tendulkar's performance through the years 1994–1999 coincided with his physical peak, in his early twenties.

       Sachin Tendulkar continued performing well in Test cricket in 2001 and 2002, with some pivotal performances with both bat and ball. Tendulkar made 673 runs in 11 matches in the 2003 Cricket World Cup, helping India reach the final. Tendulkar was awarded as Man of the Tournment award. The drawn series as India toured Australia in 2003/04 saw Tendulkar making his mark in the last Test of the series, with 241 not out in Sydney, putting India in a virtually unbeatable position. He followed up the innings with an unbeaten 60 in the second innings of the test.
       Tennis elbow then took its peal on Tendulkar, leaving him out of the side for most of the year. Sachin  told that he  thought it was the end of his career and he was unable to pick his son’s plastic bat also for four months. At that time so many friends helped him to recover from that phase.
       During this period from about 2002 to 2006–7, Tendulkar's batting often seemed to be a shadow of its former self. He was inconsistent, and his big knocks mostly came in sedate, accumulative, uncharacteristic fashion. He seemed to have either cut out or lost the ability to play many shots, including the hook and pull and many other aerial strokes. He also developed a tendency to go without scoring much for long periods and become overtly defensive. However, after the 2007 World Cup, his career had a second wind and his consistency and form returned.




       He achieved all his desires in last four years only.  In 2011 world cup which was hosted by Bangladeh, India and Srilanka From February to April, Scored 482 runs at an average of 53.55 including two centuries, Tendulkar was India's lead run-scorer for the tournament . India defeated Sri Lanka in the final.Shortly after the victory, Tendulkar commented that "Winning the World Cup is the proudest moment of my life. ... I couldn't control my tears of joy."

       Tendulkar scored his much awaited 100th international hundred on 16 March 2012, at Mirpur against Bangladesh in the Asia Cup. He became the first person in history to achieve this feat. Incidentally, it was Tendulkar's first ODI hundred against Bangladesh. He said "It's been a tough phase for me ... I was not thinking about the milestone, the media started all this, wherever I went, the restaurant, room service, everyone was talking about the 100th hundred. Nobody talked about my 99 hundreds. It became mentally tough for me because nobody talked about my 99 hundreds."

IPL


       In 2010 edition of Indian Premier League, Mumbai Indians reached the final of the tournament. Tendulkar made 618 runs in 14 innings during the tournament, breaking Shaun Marsh's record of most runs in an IPL season. He was declared player of the tournament for his performance during the season. He also won Best Batsman and Best Captain awards at 2010 IPL Awards ceremony. In 2013 Mumbai Indians won both the IPL and Champions League Twenty twenty trophies .

Retirement



       Sachin Tendulkar has announced his retirement from limited-overs international cricket on Sunday (December 23). Tendulkar spoke to N Srinivasan, the president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, and conveyed his decision to retire from the one-day format, a BCCI release said.
“I have decided to retire from the one-day format of the game,” Tendulkar said in a statement.  “I feel blessed to have fulfilled the dream of being part of a World Cup-winning Indian team.  The preparatory process to defend the World Cup in 2015 should begin early and in right earnest.  I would like to wish the team all the very best for the future.  I am eternally grateful to all my well wishers for their unconditional support and love over the years.”
Later sachin has announced his retirement from test after 200th test which held at Mumbai(6th Nov to 10th Nov 2013). He left the Ground with teary eyes and made millions of his fans cry.

Achivements

Google Transparency Report: India second to US in requesting user data

Google said in its Transparency Report that since it began sharing user information in 2010, requests from governments have increased by more than 100 percent.

“This comes as usage of our services continues to grow, but also as more governments have made requests than ever before. And these numbers only include the requests we’re allowed to publish”, Richard Salgado, Legal Director, Law Enforcement and Information Security wrote in a official blog.




According to the Google Transparency Report, India ranks second after the US in requesting user data. While US had 10,918 requests of which 83 per cent were procured, the Indian government had a total of 2,691 requests of which 64 per cent were procured.
Next come Germany, France and UK with 2311, 2011 and 1,274 requests respectively.
Google said it is including additional information about legal process for U.S. criminal requests: breaking out emergency disclosures, wiretap orders, pen register orders and other court orders.
“We believe it’s your right to know what kinds of requests and how many each government is making of us and other companies. However, the U.S. Department of Justice contends that U.S. law does not allow us to share information about some national security requests that we might receive. Specifically, the U.S. government argues that we cannot share information about the requests we receive (if any) under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. But you deserve to know” Richard Salgado said.
