Maldives beat Sri Lankans on their own stadium. Despite their home advantage the Sri Lankan team was unable to score any goal although they had several golden opportunities. The only goal of the match was scored by Maldivian striker Oppo. Sri Lankans played an extremely physical game and powerful tackles were aimed at Ashfag (Dhagadey). However, for some reason most of these fouls were ignored by the referee.
The final match is also to be held in Sri Lanka next Saturday. Maldives will face India who had already beaten Maldives 1-0 during the group matches held in Male’. However, we Maldivians have a greater confidence that our team could win the final. Our self-confidence helped us to win the game against Sri Lanka so will the final.

Ok here is a really cool post you do not want to miss. Using just a Cardboard Box, a low cost Webcam, a Piece of Clear Flat Sturdy Material and a paper, build your own multi touch pad in less than 5 minutes. So how does this work;
It’s really easy and simple. It handles tracking blobs of infrared light, and sends your programs these multi-touch events, such as 'finger down', 'finger moved', and 'finger released'. It includes a configuration app and a few demos to get you started, and will interace with most types of webcams and video capture devices. It currently works only under Windows but efforts are being made to port it to other platforms.

It has been a total disaster all this week since its been raining 24 hrs nonstop. I used to love cold weather and rainy days until a few weeks back lighting struck nearby my house and damaged most of the electronics. It cost 2 TV’s, 2 Decoders, a PC (worth $2500 plus), a USRobotics wireless Router and a few more things like cell phone charger’s etc. Not to mention, my UPS blew up just after the fuse box tripped. Luckily it didn’t harm my system. If it wasn’t for my UPS, I should have cried out loud that day :D
Anyways, since it’s all raining this week, I can’t play with my computer too often and this is the excuse for not updating my blog too. ;) I can’t play with my computer not because its raining all the time but not to take any risks because I had experienced the whole lightening-y thingy.
Actually what happens here is random movement of the electrons; when lightning struck, the energized electrons will be looking for an easier path to reach the ground. This static electricity in the air discharges into any conducting material (i.e. my UPS connected to ungrounded A/C wall outlet).It was under warranty too. But obviously warranty doesn’t cover acts of God so I say better buy a new one without arguing with the vendor.
So folks, I advice you all to hook all your PC’s and other valuable gear and hardware to a surge protector/UPS. And also do check the weather news daily and if you hear about lightning or heavy rain, do unplug your valuable stuffs before you go to bed. Trust me; this could prevent a lot of unnecessary heartache and potentially unrecoverable lost data. Also make sure that your Cable line is protected by a power surge as well. More than power lines, there’s a greater risk of sustaining damage if massive electricity discharge into your phone or cable line.
