Kandy Vs CR & FC

The mighty Kandy Sports Club won the Caltex ‘A’ Division League Rugby Tournament for the record ninth successive year yesterday @ Longdon Place when they beat CR & FC 13-11.

Dinesh Kumar opened the scoring when CR counter attacked on a Kandy move in the first half. Sheriff’s penalty kick made them lead at Lemon’s 8 to nothing.

However Kandy came back strong in the second half like they always do with Saliya Kumara’s 25m penalty kick and Sheriff also extended the gap with another awesome 40m kick. It was try time when Radhike Hettiarachchi managed to score through the CR defense line which followed with a perfect conversion by Saliya Kumara. Saliya then again managed to take Kandy into the lead by putting over another penalty and the final score waz 13-11.

Kandy has proved that they’re the champz fa da ninth consecutive year and CR would be hoping to have a go at ‘em @ Cliffords..

Mervyn’s playground

It is no secret to us all that Sri Lanka proudly holds the award for having the stupidest and by far the most outrageous politicians in the whole damned world. Mervyn Silva just tops the the list with no competition at all..It’s just hard for the rest of the clan to keep up with his tactics I guess..

After his dumb act @ the Rupavahini Corporation a few months back where he tasted what he rightfully deserved, things still didn’t settle down. Too bad his jackass of a son didn’t get the same treatment. Tormenting journalists & others who weren’t afraid of speaking out the truth and who were actively involved in the incident was his next project and to this very day Mervyn just plays his role smoothly as ever.

Mr. President and his frikin crew however remains silent with no action taken over the happenings involving this filthy parliamentarian. Sometimes I just wonder if Mervyn carried out his fellow gov’t VIPz dirty work under the table which seems to be the only possible reason for their silence.

The newest incident is the attack on Rupavahini’s library Assistant Director Mrs. Ranjani Herath Aluthge and still the fact remains that Mervyn’s untouchable. My question is what’s our dear president (who appointed Bandula Gunawardene as the Consumer Affairs minister) is planning on doing about Mervyn Silva..

All hail to those who speak the truth in this god damned country!!

Inter-Club Rugby Sevens

Hopefully the crowd turnout would be much better than 2007 even with the country’s current situation.

SLI

Ever wanted to know what these three letters meant when you went to buy a Mobo or a power supply?? Well I did.   NVIDIA always comes up wid best graphicz and they overdid it wid SLI.(in a gud way I mean)

 Simply what SLI means is that you could use multiple NVIDIA graphics cards to get maximum performance. Specially if you’re a gamer then you might have already stuffed ya SLI ready Mobo wid a couple of NVIDIA VGAs. With SLI technology now you could experience twice what you did wid a single graphics card.

The newest addition to the SLI family is QUAD SLI which is boosted by 2 x Geforce cards (wid 2 gpus)  which will run high end gamez on high resolution smoothly as ever.

Chk out SLI, 3 way SLI and QUAD SLI @ www.slizone.com to get a more clear picture. Keep in mind that SLI requires a SLI compatible motherboard and a power supply as well.

Say how you sent your CV to them..through one of your friends, email, online submission, post or wateva

02.How did you find out about us?
Make sure to tell them about your friend who works at the company(only if) so that it’ll earn him some credit.

03.Why Us?(any particular company)
This is a trick question. Even though you know nothing bout it just pretend that you do and say something good about the company..works most of the time If you’re just enterin the job market say “first of all I need to start my carrer and I think this particular sector(Banking for instance) is the best to start with” n so on. then go bak to the first part.

04.Anyone you know in the company?
Give a list of ya relatives namez n positions working in the company no matter which branch or office they’re in..Do not and I repeat do not say nething about a screw up relative you’ve got in that company no matter how many times you wonder how that person moved to the top with an attitude like that

05.Say something about yourself
Don’t start with my name is so and so..Start with where you went to school, higher education(college life) and a lil bit of the real you.

06.Tell us about any particular scenario you faced and how you tackled the obstacles o something like that..(courtesy of Maduranga Perera IIT)
Go on about how you organized a particular event in ya school dayz..that’s the easiest crap to load ‘em with or say something else if nethin even better comez to ya mind

07.They might give a particular scenario to a group of y’all and just watch
What they’re trying to catch here is ya group wrkn n communication skillz..They’d also note the different approcaches you use to tackle the situation..Just express your ideas with the group and you’ll survive..

08.Do you mind working outstation?
haha..u gotta be kidding me..yahh rite don’t say that.. One answer that might satisty them is “Yes of course, but if I have a choice I’d choose someplace close to my hometown”. Then they’ll go on about how they’re only a few vacancies opened in the main cities n stuff. Keep in mind that if you say “Yes” to this question they might send you further up,down or east frm colombo definitely given that you’ve managed to get the job somehow..

Hope that this’ll be enuf fa now..Please feel free to add more stuff k.

The all new Nokia N95 8GB

There was alotta talk about the N95 when it was released back in September 2006. But in recent times the developers were able to develop a new version of the Nokia N95 which is called NOKIA N95 8gb which is totally outta our reach(@ least mine):)

There are a few singnificant differences on the N95 8gb which makes it a much more better performable phone. I’ll list a few..

01. Battery capacity has been increased to 1200mAH which is a 25% increase.
Has no problem getting through at least 24hrs of use.

02. The screen size has been increased to 2.8 inches from 2.6 inches
Performs better in outside conditions.

03. 8GB Internal flush memory which replaces the Micro SD card slot on the N95 classic.
There’s more space to store your multimedia now.

04. Increased RAM from 64mb to 128mb.
This will make sure that it is able to open any number of applications at the same time. Multitasking is now much easier.

05. Top slide keys are more dimple and has been raised.
Makes it much more easier to press the keys.

06.The control keys have been slightly shrunk but the outer keys have been raised.
This is to accomadate the larger screen but still you could go on about easily as before.

07. No lense cover
Due to the increase of the battery size they’ve decided to remove the lense cap.

08. The Multimedia Menu offers the same applications but in addition it enables a lower level of functionality also.
Makes things much more easier although it ain’t much customized.

09. Software tweaks
Improvements in the Camera s/w, picture taking time, N-Gauge application, search etc.

So the N95 8gb offers the same functionality as the N95 classic but has a significant number of s/w tweaks and the hardware changes has improved user friendliness of the device.

All in all a great multimedia smartphone if you could afford it.

Mercantile Rugby 7’s

Oh yeah..It all happened at the CR & FC grounds last Saturday(17th) and Sunday(18th). Most unfortunately our television viewers weren’t able to follow the matches played throughout Saturday because Channel Eye did not broadcast the tournament live, even though they advertised it on TV repeatedly on Saturday and Sunday. What more can ya expect rite?

 

Anyhow Seylan Bank managed to win the Mercantile trophy for the second consecutive year yesterday beating John Keels Group 34-10. Believe it or not Fazil Marija, Amjad Buksh, Dinesh Sanjeewa, Tuan Shamrock & Mohammed Jabbar, all star national players for Sri Lanka played for Seylan Bank giving JKG no chance in winning the cup.

Buksh opened the scorecard for SB and Thajudeen replied immediately with another for JKG. The score was 17-5 for SB @ the end of the first session thanks to two more tries by Shamrock and Kasun De Silva.

Anuradha Dharmatilake touched down for JKG in the second half while Dinesh Sanjeewa touched twice and Shamrock joined in with another for SB giving JKG no chance at all @ the trophy. Final score 34-10. Fazil Marija recieved the Pemraj Pieris Memorial trophy for the man of the match while Tuan Shamrock was awarded with the Mohan Daniel trophy for the most outstanding player of the tournament.

Commercial Bank beat Emjay international lead by Nalakha Weerakkody for the Plate championship 17-12. Nobody would’ve thought that CB would shoot through the strong big line of Emjay but that’s how it ended up @ the end.

Other Results

Bowl Championship – Ceylinco B Vs Lankabell

Final result was in favour of Ceylinco B. 24-12

Shield Championship – Sri Lanka Insurance Vs Suntel

SLI beat Suntel with a close score of 12-10

Seylan beat Ceylinco A 28-12 & John Keels Group beat MAS 17-14 @ the semis.

The Warne, Murali dispute

Recently the media has gone frenzy bout the Warne, Murali story. At the beginning of the tournament they both were smiling at the camera and the next thing you know Warne’s questioning Murali’s action again.

Well according to an article I read recently, it was just a miscommunication between the tewo of ‘em. However Warne’s idiot of a coach was quoted saying that the authorities had never tested Murali’s action on the field itself which again brings up the question “When will they ever give up?” Aren’t u frikin tired of hearing about Murali’s action over and over again?

The same people who blamed him in the first place tests him and gives him a clean bill and then again go on forever about his action. Kinda lame don’t ya think?

So actually what had happened was when Warne said that “you should get to your common sense when questioning an action”(and this is not the exact words he used) Murali had thought it was about him n returned the favour by saying “Warne’s a miserable, sad man”.

Anyhow things are ok, i mean great between Warne and Murali coz they had a laugh over the matter after realising what had just happened. So we too should move on with that although their cricket loving Prime Minister and so many other criticz would go on forever on Murali’s action.

Hope to see the tournament end in a draw..even tho fairy tale like it seems..

Singer SL Rugby Asiad

oh yeah..The rugby Asiad is still on progress as we speak @ da CR & FC grounds and the Royal Sports Complex. It’ll continue until the 10th of November where the finals will take place between the best two teams and I’m hoping one of ‘em might be the Lankans.

If you watched the opening match of Sri Lanka’s against China you got all the reason to have faith on our guyz..For the second time we beat China convincingly 26-10. Two tries by Lakala Perera and 1 from our winger Sanjeewa Jayasinghe. It rained during the match and there waz alotta ball handling errors mostly by our dudes tho.

Kazakhstan beat Thailand the same day 69-21. No point in talking bout that match beacuse for one Kazakhstan are far more superior than Thailand and secondly when it comes to sportsmanship they aren’t a team which sets high standards.

Yesterday, Sunday India took the game to the Pakistanis and scored 19 points to nothing. It looked nothing like India being the best team because they both lacked the basic skills big time.

Hoping to see more Rugby during the week so I’ll keep ya updated..

Yesterday’s Update

Things have gone from good to very good fa us Lankans coz China beat Malaysia bigtime 56-6 yesterday which means, we’ll also be able to beat ‘em and go straight to the cup finals..jus like that.

Meanwhile Chinese Taipei beat Thailand 27-16. Tomorrow(7th) Wednesday we’ll meat Malaysia and Kazakhstan will play Chinese Taipei and there’s no doubt that Kazakhstan will advance to the finals with hopefully Sri Lanka being the other team.

News from 8th November

Sri Lanka managed to kick ass @ their semis by thrashing Malaysia 77-3. So we’ll be advancing to the finals unbeaten. Radhike Hettiarachchi, Kasun De Silva, Amjad Buksh, Lakala Perera, Shamil Mohammed, Kisho Jehan, Saliya Kumara, Sanjeewa Jayasinghe, Avantha Hettiarachchi and Lasintha De Costa scored tries and they were converted by Buksh, Radhike and Senthil Kumar.

We went onto score the highest number of points in the tournament and will hopefully do our best against Kazakhstan on the 10th @ da finalz.

 

Finals 10th November 2007

Dissappointment and so many mistakes. Nevertheless awesome game against the strong Kazakhstan team. It took at least 2 defenders to bring down da forwardz who were trying to penetrate through our line.
The ref akways found us a way to get in the game by spotting Kazakh errors buhh we just couldn’t hang onto the ball long enough. Senthil Kumar opened our account with his penalty and the first try came 2 mins before the match ended by Saliya Kumara when we were already playing @ extra time.
The final score was 17-24

China managed to clinch the BOWL championship beating Chinese Taipei who actually were dominating the game in the first half. If it was not for their dumb mistakes there would’ve been two more tries added to the Chinese Taipei total. Could you imagine how a player can’t just touch the ball to the ground when he’s already over the try line? lmao. Final score 28-22
