India Hopes To Make A Fresh Start With New Telecom Policy
2012-02-17 09:13:00 Indian government announced a uniform telecom license-fee under the New Telecom Policy (NTP). In an attempt to weed out the scam tainted image of the Telecom sector, Communications and IT Minister Kapil Sibal provided access to higher Spectrum of up to 10 MHz to all service providers. The spectrum allocation works in a reverse way. Hence, now the operators will be able to offer service in the lower & efficient 8 MHz Spectrum too. Sadly, Delhi & Mumbai still have the 10 MHz limit. Furthermore, healthy competition is encouraged through open auctions to acquire additional frequency beyond the prescribed limit in the open market. The Govt. though has set an upper limit of 25% of the bandwidth available in the region. This restriction seems aimed at promoting competition by preventing the monopolization of the market through heavy fund allocation. So, how did the Govt. tackle the tricky service agreements that they were accusing Airtel & Vodafone earlier? Telecom Companies...

Zuccarello Hopes to Help Steer Whale out of Skid
2012-01-26 23:47:00 By Bruce Berlet After a 5-3 victory over the Springfield Falcons on Dec. 31, the Connecticut Whale (19-15-3-5) had a six-point lead over the Adirondack Phantoms in the AHL?s Northeast Division and were within two points of the Eastern Conference?s top spot. But entering a game at the XL Center on Friday night against the surging Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins, the Whale is on a nine-game winless streak (0-5-1-3). Despite the slump, the Whale still has a nine-game points streak (5-0-1-3) at home since a 5-3 loss to the Hershey Bears on Dec. 9 and a one-point lead over the Bridgeport Sound Tigers, who had an eight-game winning streak ended in a 4-3 shootout loss to the visiting Atlantic Division-leading St. John?s IceCaps on Wednesday night. The Whale is two points ahead of Adirondack, which hosts Bridgeport on Friday night, and Albany, which is at Binghamton. No one has been more frustrated during the recent tough times than wing Mats Zuccarello, who has missed the last four games an...

UConn Spoils Rutgers Big East Title Hopes
2011-11-26 21:22:00 The Rutgers Scarlet Knights came into this game looking to secure a share of the Big East title and a possible BCS bid. The UConn Huskies were looking to salvage their season and get closer to becoming bowl-eligible as well as sending off the seniors with a final home win. The Huskies were able to take advantage of some early Rutgers turnovers and good field position on their way to a 40-22 win over the Scarlet Knights in front of 37,857 on Senior Day at Rentschler Field in East Hartford, CT on Saturday afternoon. The Huskies improve to 5-6 (3-3 Big East) while the Scarlet Knights finish their regular season at 8-4 (4-3). Last week, the Huskies allowed the Louisville Cardinals to take the opening kickoff back for a touchdown and that essentially took themselves out of the ball game. Saturday was a different story as the opening kickoff went out of the end zone. The Huskies quickly turned the tables on Rutgers when Sio Moore forced a fumble by Rutgers RB Jawan Jamison that was recove...

Greg Norman hopes Adam Scott gives Tiger Woods a Presidents Cup thrashing
2011-11-15 17:26:00 A face-off between Tiger Woods and Adam Scott at the Presidents Cup tourney in Royal Melbourne GC would certainly make great "must see TV" but is Greg Norman using the Aussie to unload his own sour grapes? The Aussies (?...ha) are "sick and tired of losing," said Norman, whose International team hasn't won the Cup since 1998. Furthermore, Greg Norman was "dethroned" by Tiger Woods in the 1990's to become top-golfer in the world. This isn't just a case of "my yacht is bigger than your yacht," this is personal. "Tiger and Greg don't speak," said a source who knows both men. "There's a lot of animosity between them." Greg Norman has turned The Presidents Cup into a battle between Australia (not necessarily the "International Team") and the USA. Doing so, however, has had it's ramifications, with Couples now comparing Aussie golfers to Woods. After Tiger Woods was slammed by Norman, Couples retorted with a comparative dig at Melbourne golfer Robert Allenby. "Robe...

Getting to know Utah, in the hopes that it may actually help Notre Dame win
2010-11-12 08:08:00 Considering that most weekends they're not televised coast-to-coast like some traditional Midwestern and Southern powers, one of the more incredible things about the triumphs of non-BCS schools such as Boise State, Utah, Hawaii, and TCU is not just that they have gained recognition as programs, but that their style of play has become so incredibly imprinted on the nation. Back in 2004, when their coach was Urban Meyer, Utah's spread option attack was considered revolutionary, but by last season had been adapted by 9 other teams, and contributed to the larger popularization of the spread to over 40% of the nation. Which brings us full circle to now, where in 2010, a behind the times Notre Dame team is clumsily trying to play catch-up.

And I said that the White Sox needed to sweep the Minnesota Twins in their final head to head series to have a sliver of a chance....and they screwed that up on the first friggin night. So yeah...7 games out...18 left....it is super, extra over. The White Sox will not overtake the Minnesota Twins for the the division title, and are much, much farther out from the Wild Card. To witness the death in person, it was simultaneously more rewarding and more painful. The White Sox showed their mettle in rallying from 2 runs down to take the lead, and displayed a double-play combo for the future in Beckham and Ramirez.

Carmelo and Denver heading for divorce? Don't get your hopes up

League sources say it is now a matter of when, not if, Anthony and the Nuggets will go their separate ways.Anthony is weighing whether to sign a three-year, $65 million extension offered by the Nuggets. His dilemma, league sources say, is what affords him the best chance of continuing his career elsewhere. Anthony could sign with Denver and convince the team to then trade him. His other option would be to not sign the extension, thereby forcing the team to move him rather than risk losing him next summer as a free agent....

0-0 Draw Dents Manchester United?s Title Hopes
2010-04-11 17:38:00 The last 12 days would either make or break Man United?s season. A 2-1 loss and 3-2 win for United was enough to knock us out of the Champions League. After a 2-1 loss to Chelsea last weekend and a 0-0 draw against Blackburn Rovers today, it looks like it could have ended United?s fourth consecutive Premier League title hopes. With Wayne Rooney out injured after a reoccurrence of his ankle injury, Sir Alex Ferguson opted to put 18-year old Federico Macheda up front along with Dimitar Berbatov. Patrice Evra was rested; he had been replaced by John O?Shea, who had made his first appearance since November 2009 last Wednesday against Bayern Munich. Sir Alex may have gone for youth in the second leg against Bayern but Paul Scholes, Gary Neville and Ryan Giggs were brought back into the side to add some experience Throughout the game United had most of the possession but only really creating a few good goal scoring opportunities.
