Red Bull-Gives You Wings

Nice advertisement,conveys the message effectively.A few might find it a bit grose.I personally think its funny-

Kolkata Knight Riders

Shah Rukh Khan recently announced his IPL team-Kolkata Knight Riders.I know that there are lots of mad SRK fans out there who will be supporting this team.But,I am neither a SRK fan nor do I support the Indian Premier League.SRK seems to be investing a lot on the team and his team is the most publicized team in the IPL.It could turn out to be a good investment.

To know everything about the Knight Riders,you can visit their website.One thing I find very funny that SRK or more probably the guy from Red Chillies who registered the domain didn't care to register it privately which means that all SRK fans know where you can contact him.

The whois information says-

Here's the knightriders anthem(Korbo Lorbo Jitbo) video-


Here's just the audio-


If you have visited their website or have watched the video,you would've noticed the golden helmet and its unique poor design.I wonder if the little portion in the middle hinders the visibility.I know that the helmet has been designed to go with the theme but after all the guys have to bat wearing that helmet and I don't think the visibility is too great.

New F1 Regulations 2008

There have been some changes in the regulations this season.This is a brief account of all these changes.

Engine-No change in the regulations related to engine changes.One engine needs to last for 2 races.If an engine is changed before a race,a penalty of 10 places on the starting grid will be awarded.However,the engine can be changed if a driver fails to complete a race due to some engine failure.

Gearbox-The new regulations say that a gearbox has to last for four races.Penalty for a gearbox change is 5 places on the starting grid.However,a gearbox can be changed if a mechanical failure prevents the driver from finishing the race.

No more Traction Control-A Traction Control System basically is something which is designed to prevent loss of traction and the control of a car when excessive throttle or steering is applied.According to the new regulations,every car must have a standard ECU(Engine Control Unit) issued by FIA.This ECU does not have traction control capabilities.This can be a problem for some drivers as they'll have to be extra cautious.

With traction control,drivers can apply full throttle and turn simultaneously without losing traction.Without traction control,they just can't go flat out on turns without losing control of the car.The 2008 season will be a true test of the skills of the drivers though I feel that driving with TC isn't easy either.

Traction control has always been a big topic of discussion.Different people have different views about it.I personally feel that TC should be used and checking if a driver is able to drive like a machine is pointless.

F1 Season 2008

The 2008 F1 season starts tomorrow,15th March 2008.Its needless to say that the first race is the Australian Grand Prix.Qualifying starts at 8:27 am IST.The race starts at 10:00 am IST.This is the last Australian GP morning race.Next season onwards,Australian GP will be held in the evening to make it convenient for Europeans.

This season will have a total of 18 races and will be very exciting.To bridge the gap between the last season and this one,I've decided to give you a list of teams(constructors) along with the drivers.Quite a few drivers have moved so its time to get used to this new list.

1.Ferrari-No changes in the scarlet horse team with the usual drivers Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa.I'll be supporting Ferrari throughout the season.Not to forget,they'll have Michael Schumacher behind the pit wall. :-D

2.McLaren-Lewis Hamilton had a great last season and will continue with McLaren.Alonso has moved to Renault after having a bad season as a number 2 driver of the team.This gives Heikki Kovalainen a seat in the silver car.

3.Force India-India finally have a team in the F1 circuit.Vijay Mallya's Force India will be making its debut this weekend.I expect a few championship points from the team and ask my fellow Indians to keep a limit to their expectations.Adrian Sutil and Giancarlo Fisichella will be the two drivers driving Force India.My prediction is that Force India will get better as the season progresses as they have no lack of funds.

4.Renault-If you ask me what I expect from Renault,I'll say nothing.Even though Fernando Alonso has returned,I don't think Renault will not be good enough.Alonso's teammate will be newcomer Nelson Piquet.

5.Honda-They might improve their performance as they have Ross Brawn as their team boss.Rubens Barrichello and Jenson Button will be desperate to perform after a bad season last year.

6.Red Bull-David Coulthard and Mark Webber will be driving for the Red Bull team.

7.Toro Rosso-Two Sebastians will be driving the STR cars namely Sebastian Vettel and newcomer Sebastian Bourdais.

8.Williams-Nico Rosberg will try to perform like his father in the Williams car like last year.He has a new teammate,Kazuki Nakajima.

9.BMW Sauber-Nick Heidfeld and Robert Kubica seem to be happy with BMW Sauber and with each other.Thus they haven't signed any new contracts.

10.Toyota-Jarno Trulli and Timo Glock will be driving for Toyota this season.

11.Super Aguri-Last in my list and perhaps last in the constructors championship too.This is a perfect description of the Super Aguri team.Anthony Davidson and Takuma Sato will continue to drive for Super Aguri.My advice to them-Keep Looking for new contracts.

Back To JEE Preparation

Now that I have 9 free days before my Maths Bored Exam,I can get back to my JEE preparation.English,Physics and Chemistry went fine.I can't expect anything in English.I'll get something like 60/70 in Physics and 65/70 in Chemistry.English was really simple and if things work out well in terms of checking,I'll get a decent score.Lots of things to revise so I'll keep this short.

Google Search Box-Bloggers Beware

What I'm writing in this post is way too elementary but important.You can find a Google Search Box at the top of my blog.If you want such a search box for your blog,sign up for Google AdSense.You can earn from the search box under AdSense for Search.You can also get it from the official Google site- http://www.google.com/sitesearch

I recently came across this fake website (http://www.googlesearchbox.info ) owned by Alexander Spiteri according to Whois.The domain and favicon suggest that the website is a Google website but don't be fooled by that stuff.The guy plans to earn from other websites.The code provided by him has his publisher id in it.If you check out the footnote it says-

Google do not allow changes to the code so please do not modify any part of the code other then the url of the site search (www.cnn.com above).

It is evident that the guy is going against the TOS.Well,i must say that this guy could have done better than this.He uses eXTReMe Tracking.You can find the icon at the bottom left of the page.

Try Googling 'google search box', the website is the fourth result.Surprisingly, AdSense is the fifth result.Yahoo is better in this regard.While composing this post,I came across another such fraud website-http://www.googlesearchbox.co.uk which is even worse than the previous one.There are many more websites.

Thus it is needless to say that don't use the code provided by any other website unless or until you plan to let someone else earn on your behalf.
