Disciplinary committee has made mockery of proceedings: Modi

New Delhi: Former IPL Commissioner Lalit Modi on Tuesday came down heavily on the three-member Disciplinary Committee, probing alleged irregularities against him, saying the panel has made a "mockery of the proceedings".

The committee, after recording versions of lawyers representing Modi and the BCCI, said it is likely to give its recommendations to the BCCI by the end of May.

"In hurry to conclude, committee has made mockery of the proceedings. My lawyers wanted one session each to deal with 12 issues," Modi tweeted.

"They have made this enquiry - A SHAM EXERCISE A whole New ways to do Judicial inquiry," he wrote on his twitter handle.

A legal team representing Modi has objected to "undue haste" by the Committee, and he sought to bring it to light.

"Looks like everything is predetermined. What is the undue haste for. Why this hurry. What are they afraid of. Possibly the truth," Modi said.

Directing his ire at the Cricket Board, Modi said, "Even if BCCI were to read headings of documents it would have taken 2 full days to only read heading of those documents.

"Three show cause notices running in 150 pages, my reply running in 15000 pages, live evidence record running into 2000 pages.

"Amazing how BCCI lawyers yesterday took only 40 minutes to argue its full case against me."

Commenting further against the board, Modi said, "BCCI dictates that no member or administrator gives evidence to bring out the truth.

"The persons who wish to appear on my behalf are stopped by BCCI acting under instruction of its President - Srinivasan.

"My application to examine witnesses in defence is not allowed by the committee."

Modi also took potshots at Arun Jaitley Arun Jaitley, one of the three members in the Disciplinary Committee.

"While suit against bias of Arun Jaitley is pending in court, he shows undue haste 2 close proceedings so that I cannot have legal remedy," he wrote.

"Let me tell the truth of these proceedings. The fact that Arun Jaitley was the original complainant in the BCCI was suppressed from me," Modi said.

He said the committee was scared to face him.

"I am not afraid to face the committee, but looks like committee is afraid to face me. And from my legal team.

"The inquiry was instituted against me but looks like the committee does not wish to hear my version," Modi said.

Modi`s legal team had earlier accused the Disciplinary Committee of ignoring its request to present its defence in the case.

"I am constrained to note the working of the committee. It declined to give Modi a chance to present his case via video link. The committee has already refused to take Modi`s response to show-cause notices issued to him saying it was 32 hours late," said Mehmood M Abdi, General Counsel and Constituted Attorney of Modi.

BCCI recommends Kohli, Gavaskar for government awards

Mumbai: The Cricket Board (BCCI) has recommended the names of young batsman Virat Kohli for the prestigious Arjuna award and former captain Sunil Gavaskar for the Dhyanchand lifetime achievement honour to the sports ministry.

Confirming this, BCCI sources said that on Tuesday was the last date for recommending the awards to the sports ministry.

"We have recommended only these two names," the sources informed making it clear that no cricketer`s name has been recommended for the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna award this year.

Gavaskar, the only Indian cricketer recently named by former England umpire Dickie Bird in his select World Test XI, retired from the game in 1987 after a glorious 16-year-long career during which he became the first in the world to score 10,000 Test runs.

In all, he played in 125 Tests and was a member of the victorious Indian World Cup winning team led by Kapil Dev in 1983 and then led the country to another major one-day title, the World Championship of Cricket in Australia two years later.

Gavaskar, who will turn 64 on July 10, is currently a television commentator and a columnist.

====================================================================================

TOSS: MSD has won the toss and he has decided to bat first.

Albie Morkel replaces Dirk Nannes and Suman comes in for Mithun Manhas.

With 7 wins from 9 matches, Chennai Super Kings have once again become a force to reckon with in the Indian Premier League. They are there right on the top of the table courtesy the incredible form of Michael Hussey who was dropped for one match but since then has scored big knocks getting his side to good starts. Wriddhiman Saha who replaced Murali Vijay in the previous match played a short but impactful innings and only if Dirk Nannes can get back into his rhythm, there is no reason why CSK cannot register another convincing victory.

Pune skipper Aaron Finch has been in good form as a result of which he was handed over the captaincy and since then he has put some good shows with the bat. Luke Wright has done a decent job as an all-rounder, so has Mitchell Marsh and these two will have to click together in case if the hosts entertain any hopes of defeating their mighty opponent in front of the home crowd. Meanwhile the team management would want the underrated Steven Smith to score a big knock in the crucial encounter.

Customize Which Apps Show their Notifications on the Lock Screen in Windows 8

One of Windows 8’s niftier features is that it displays notifications on the Lock screen from certain apps—email, social networking, calendar, and more. That way, if you want a quick rundown of what you need to know, it’s right there for you. You don’t even have to log into Windows 8; just check out the Lock screen. Maybe you don’t want to see updates from your social networking sites, but do want to see the current weather, or information from another app. Customizing exactly what shows up on your Start screen is a breeze. Press Windows key+I, and then select Change PC Settings at the bottom of the Settings pane. From the right side of the screen that appears ( See Figure )

 
     Select Lock Screen. Down at the bottom-right of the screen, you’ll see icons of the apps that automatically display notifications, with some plus signs to the right (See Figure).

 
 Click a plus sign to reveal a list of apps that can display notifications. Simply pick one and it will display alerts and other information on the Start screen.

 Note: When you click a plus sign, you’ll see both the apps that already display notifications, as well as those that don’t. If you choose one that already displays its notifications on the Start screen, nothing new happens—the app still displays notifications, with no change.

Windows 8 Tips & Tricks

Windows 8 Tips

 
& Tricks


There are some things that Microsoft hasn’t told you about Windows 8. We’re here to help.

 Windows 8 is replete with new features and unexpected behaviors that it’d take a while for even the most experienced of Windows users to master. After using the OS  extensively for the last few months, here are five tips and tricks that both newbies and power users should find useful.

         Login to Desktop Mode Directly

 The key to this trick is to have the Desktop tile as the first tile on your Start screen.

Most of us here like the new tile-based Start screen in Windows 8, especially the dynamic live tiles that put information we care about front and center. But we also recognize that there are those who can’t stand the Modern UI. While there are third party apps like Start8 and RetroUI that allow booting directly to the desktop, we’ve a trick that does the same thing but doesn’t require any extra software:  •  Put the Desktop tile at the left uppermost position on the Start   screen. •  Restart your PC. •  At the login screen, enter your password. •  Instead of pressing Enter, hold down the Enter key. •  Because the Start screen always puts its focus on the first tile,   holding down the Enter key will launch the Desktop ‘app’    immediately.

 During login, after entering your password, hold down the Enter key to jump straight
into desktop mode.

                       Faster Shut Downs

 Create the shortcut on the desktop; you can assign an icon to it.

 When you invoke the Settings Charm, and click on the Power button, you’ll be presented with options to shut down or restart the device, or put it to sleep. If you’re on the desktop, pressing Alt + F4 will bring up the shut down menu. However, a much faster way is to create a shut down shortcut which you can place on the desktop or pin it on the Start screen: •  Right-click on the desktop and select ‘New > Shortcut’. •  Enter ‘shutdown /s /t 0’ (without the quotes), and then give the   shortcut a name. •  Click ‘Finish’ and you’ll find a shortcut on your desktop. •  Optionally, you can right-click on this shortcut, select ‘Properties’,   and click ‘Change Icon’ under the Shortcut tab to assign an icon to   the shortcut. •  To make this shortcut also appear on the new Start screen, simply   right-click on it and select ‘Pin to Start’.

Pin the shortcut to the Start screen, and you can shut down with just one click.





               Snap Three Apps Side-by-Side

 Snap allows you to place two Modern-style apps side by side on the same screen.

 Multi-tasking in Windows 8’s Modern UI environment is achieved by a new feature called ‘Snap’, which places two Modern-style apps side by side. The drawback of Snap is that you can’t have more than two apps on the same screen. However, because Windows 8 treats the desktop as an app, if what you want is to have two desktops apps (or windows) and one Modern-style app on the same screen, there’s a way to do it (you need a screen resolution of at least 1,366 x 768 though): •  On the desktop, drag the title bar of a window to the left or right   side of the screen to expand the window. •  Repeat step 1 with another window to arrange both windows side   by side. This feature is called Aero Snap. •  Next, bring up the app switcher (swipe in and back out on the left   edge). •  Select the Modern-style app you like to ‘snap’ with the desktop app,   and drag its thumbnail towards the right. •  You’ll notice that the main app will now make room for a stripe that   appears on the left; here is where you dock the secondary app in.   Drag the thumbnail further to the right if you want to dock it on the   right side.

 If you combine Snap with Aero Snap for the desktop, you now can have three apps
side by side.

How to See the iTunes Track in the Dock on Mac OS X Lion

Here’s a handy little tweak for the Dock that will cause a pop-up window

to momentarily appear each time iTunes begins playing a new track (see Figure above). It’s so useful that it’s hard to believe it isn’t activated by default or is at least an official preference option. But it isn’t. 

Quit iTunes if it’s open, then open a Terminal window (Finder >Applications >Utilities >Terminal) and type the following:

 defaults write com.apple.dock itunes-notifications -bool TRUE;killall Dock 

Then start iTunes and try playing a track. Neat, eh? The pop-up fades away after a few seconds.
                                 
 To add the iTunes icon to the pop-up window, type the following into a Terminal window: 

defaults write com.apple.dock notification-always-show-image -bool TRUE; killall Dock 

To deactivate the pop-up at a later date, quit iTunes again, then open a Terminal window and type the following two lines:

 defaults delete com.apple.dock itunes-notifications 
 defaults delete com.apple.dock notification-always-show-image;killall Dock
