ICC plans to undermine Sri Lanka`s Test status Saturday, 26 September 2009 - 12:51 PM SL Time
 
In a move widely speculated by the world`s media, International Cricket Council (ICC) is likely to launch a world Test championship that would see Sri Lanka relegated to Tier B along with lesser powers of world cricket both on cricket strength and financial strength, but Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) officials are still blissfully ignorant of the plans.

`This is news to me. We have not heard anything about this. It may be mere speculation in internet media reports. I cannot comment anything on it` said SLC interim committee chief D.S. de Silva.

Sri Lanka Tamils fear UK deportation Saturday, 5 September 2009 - 10:10 PM SL Time
 
Sri Lankan Tamil asylum seekers in the UK have accused the British government of double standards - trying to send them back to Sri Lanka on the one hand while accusing the island`s authorities of human rights violations on the other.

Nadarajah, a former Tamil Tiger rebel, says the British government tried to deport him to Sri Lanka before the High Court granted him permission to apply for a judicial review against the decision to remove him.

`My father was abducted in Colombo in 2007 while I was here. I was abducted and badly tortured while I was in Sri Lanka in 2002 and am still getting counselling and medication,` he told BBC Sinhala.

Man `forged marriage certificate to have sex` Wednesday, 19 August 2009 - 11:08 AM SL Time
 
Dubai: A lawyer has accused a businessman of cheating his female client by forging their marriage contract and convincing her that she was his wife before sleeping with her.

Records said the 32-year-old Emirati businessman forged the marriage contract with the 30-year-old Uzbek female saleswoman before he slept with her.

`The businessman, H.K., has cheated my client, S.A., and deceivingly convinced her that she became his lawful wife before having an ordinary husband-wife relationship. The suspect allegedly tampered his original marriage contract [to another woman] by wiping out his real wife`s name off the contract and replacing it with S.A.`s name. My client is innocent of having consensual sex with H.K. who should have been charged with having sex against S.A`s will,` lawyer Yusri Sa`ad told the Dubai Court of First Instance yesterday.

Cricket in Panama anyone? Friday, 14 August 2009 - 7:57 PM SL Time
 
This was the remarkable sight many took in at a cricket game in Panama. As for the game? Well who really cares. I`m more interested in what type of paint was used to put their pants on. As for the authenticity? We like to think they are real, but we aren`t particularly convinced.

So let`s not get over excited here and start booking our flights to Panama and buying tickets to their next cricket match. We can`t be sure that this is a regularity. But it`s possible, and that may just be enough to get Googleing for the next cricket event in the central American state at the earliest opportunity.

DVD offers 1.6 terabytes of space Wednesday, 8 July 2009 - 10:40 AM SL Time
 
Scientists in Australia have developed a DVD that can store up to 400 times more information than a standard disc.

The technology records in an unprecedented five dimensions and is capable of packing away 1.6 terabytes of data.

It has immense possibilities for the archiving of digital material as well as offering changes to the way movies are enjoyed at home by allowing viewers to watch individual scenes from a variety of viewpoints.

If you have, for example, nine angles that you can choose to view the movies then you require nine separate movies to be recorded into a single disc. That means you need nine times more space for this technology to be possible, said James Chon, a senior lecturer at Swinburne University`s Centre for Micro-photonics in Melbourne.
