SPECIAL BLOG: Sachin is the most deserving candidate for Bharat Ratna in india

2011-04-06T11:10:00.000-07:00

Sachin Tendulkar is the most deserving candidate for "Bharat Ratna". This statement was told by world cup winning captain M.S.Dohni.
World Cup winning Indian cricket captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni on Wednesday joined the growing calls to award batting ace Sachin Tendulkar the Bharat Ratna, saying no cricketer deserves it more than him.

"Yes, 200 per cent, because he is an ideal candidate, he has served the country for 21 years with a few more to come. As a cricketer, you know, if he doesn't get it, then I don't think there's anyone who'll get the Bharat Ratna ever," Dhoni said.

"I think he's done really great things for the country, taking cricket to the next level. He's known even in places where they don't know about the game, so I think it's a very big achievement taking the country forward. He's done remarkably," the Chennai Super Kings skipper said at a press meet to kickstart the IPL's fourth season, starting on Friday.

What do you think, Sachin"God of Cricket" will be honored by "Bharat Ratna", or not?

2011-03-20T22:31:00.000-07:00

Dhanush and Prithvi-II Missile Image

India on Friday morning successfully test fired two nuclear-capable missiles, both of them are ballistic missiles. A similar exercise involving Dhanush and Prithvi-2 missile was successfully conducted in a "salvo mode" off Orissa coast on March 27 last year.Dhanush is also called as the naval version of Prithvi, is a single-stage missile with liquid propellant. It has a pay load capacity of 500 kg and is capable of carrying both nuclear as well as conventional warheads.

These missiles can hit both sea and shore-based targets with a very high accuracy. In term of dimensions, It is 10 meter long, one meter in diameter and weighs six tonnes.

The test-firing of the surface-to-surface missile was "a routine trial conducted by the personnel of Strategic Force Command (SFC)". Prithvi was the first missile developed under India's prestigious Integrated Guided Missile Development Programme (IGMDP).

The surface-to-surface missile has proved its robustness and accuracy repeatedly during many trials earlier since the first test in 1988.Prithvi missile equipped with sophisticated guidance systems have hit the specified targets with a very high degree of accuracy.

"On Friday,First Dhanush was test fired from Indian naval ship, INS suvarana off the coast of orrisa at 10:30 am and then next missile Prithvi-II was successfully fired at 11 am from Integrated test range(ITR) at chandipur".

.NET FRAMEWORK ARCHITECTURE

.NET FRAMEWORK ARCHITECTURE

This blog is very crucial if you are going for an IT interview. You should read it once before your interview.

Before going to .net framework architecture, We must have to know what exactly a .net is?
.NET is a general-purpose software development platform, similar to Java. At its core is a virtual machine that turns intermediate language (IL) into machine code. High-level language compilers for C#, VB.NET and C++ are provided to turn source code into IL. C# is a new programming language, very similar to Java. An extensive class library is included, featuring all the functionality one might expect from a contemporary development platform - windows GUI development (Windows Form s), database access (ADO.NET), web development (ASP.NET), web services, XML etc.

Framework mainly consist of two main components:
1. Class library
2. CLR (Common language runtime)

Class Library includes Random, File, smtpclient and Graphic. Random work with generate random number, file work with files, Smtpclient enable to send emails, Graphic work with different images.

In CLR Framework, When we write an application for .net framework in a language such as C#, our source code is never compiled directly into machine code instead C# convert our code into a special language called MSIL (Microsoft intermediate language) which is understand by .net framework. MSIL code is then compiled by a special compiler Known as JITTER (Just in time compiler) to convert Microsoft intermediate language generated codes into machine codes.
