Invented and bankrolled by New York real estate developer Seymour Durst, the 11-by-26 foot National Debt Clock was erected in 1989. When it first was plugged in, the odometer-style clock whirred furiously as the national debt rose by $13,000 a second. Often the last few digits increased so fast they were just a blur. And at one point in the mid-1990s, the debt was rising so fast the clock’s computer crashed.
Under the presidency of Bill Clinton and a push for a balanced budget, though, the clock started ticking in the opposite direction, shaving off roughly $30 a second towards the turn of the century. Durst’s son felt that was “sending the wrong message at [that] point” and the clock was shut down untiul 2002 when the fiscal conservative administration (tongue planted firmly in cheek) of George W. Bush reversed course and brought meaning back to the ticker.

HAVING a romp more often can reduce the need for Viagra.
Recent research shows that men who have regular sex can reduce their risk of developing erectile dysfunction.
The five year study, published in the American Journal of Medicine, analysed 989 Finnish men aged 55 to 75 years old.
It found that men who make love once a week have TWICE the risk of erectile dysfunction compared to those who indulge in steamy sessions three times a week.

The UK`s ‘ultimate fantasy body’ has a name—and no it`s not an Aston Martin! Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Cole won the top vote in a poll carried out by YouGov. The 25-year-old won the survey commissioned by slimming aid Zotrim after she raked in 15 per cent of the votes and destroyed what remains of Posh Spice aka Victoria Beckham, Coleen McLoughlin and the other WAGs (wives and girlfriends of footballers) and celebrities.
The vote also marks a departure from the size zero debate after 11 per cent thought Nigella Lawson was a definite choice.

Kourtney Klein
Marisa Miller
As Sports Illustrated’s 2008 Swimsuit Issue cover girl, Victoria’s Secret’s number one Angel (sorry, Gisele), and the crème de la crème of Maxim’s ninth annual Hot 100 list, Marisa Miller embodies the official return of the all-American supermodel. Not since Cindy Crawford ruled the catwalk has a pinup born and bred on U.S. soil so thoroughly captured the imagination of the American male. It must be strange living a life in which no man can formulate a coherent sentence in your presence. Oh, and if you really need one more reason to love her: Marisa humbly says of her career, “I get a kick out of it, but it would be stupid to let it go to my head. It’s modeling—I didn’t find the cure for cancer.”

The 1983 team earned a place in sporting history, and along with it the title ‘Kapil’s Devils.’ Every Indian team, thereafter, has been compared to these champions.
A memorable moment. One, no words can describe.
Kapil Dev receives the trophy from MCC president Sir Anthony Tuke
‘The spirit among the boys was incredible. I don’t know what specific reasons enabled us to attain that kind of spirit but I believe it was the most vital character of that triumph,’ Mohinder Amarnath said after India’s incredible victory.
‘The victory. How did it happen? How did India overturn all predictions? Why did so many wickets tumble so cheaply? India performed one of the most mystical acts in her long cricket history — Kapil Dev’s merry men swung, seamed and caught their way through the rich list of Caribbean batting talent to win the Prudential World Cup. Joyful Indian crowds swarmed in front of the pavilion. The handsome captain, Kapil Dev, accepted the Cup from the president of the MCC, Sir Anthony Tuke.’
– The Sunday Telegraph, Tony Lewis.
The match-winning moment
Things were starting to look up for the West Indies. After a disastrous start, wicket-keeper Jeff Dujon put on 43 runs with Malcolm Marshall for the seventh wicket. Then came along Mohinder Amarnath to bowl his trundlers. A seemingly innocuous delivery deceived Dujon and India were roaring towards victory once again.
‘In a remarkable game, no batsman made 50, no bowler took more than three wickets, yet the outcome was perfect climax to a competition puntuated by the unlikely and the unexpected.’
– Michael Carey, of the Daily Telegraph
Left: India’s opening batsman Krishnamachari Srikkanth, who top-scored, with 38 runs, in the final.
India denied the West Indies a third consecutive title. The odds against India winning the World Cup before the tournament were 1 to 66, a true reflection of their performances in the earlier World Cups.

‘Lagey Raho Munnabhai’ sweeps 54th National Awards
===================================================================

project has been set up with the aim of usurping Wikipedia as the web’s leading reference work.Like its rival, the Citizendium site will solicit input from the public. But in a departure from the standard “wiki” model, it will be directed by expert editors, and contributors will be expected to use their real names.
The changes are designed to stamp out the inaccuracies and mischief-making that have blighted Wikipedia, the online encyclopaedia that “anybody can edit”.
The venture reflects a general revolt against unchecked user-generated online content, amid fears that efforts to tap the wisdom of crowds have unleashed a tyranny of the masses.
function pictureGalleryPopup(pubUrl,articleId) { var newWin = window.open(pubUrl+’template/2.0-0/element/pictureGalleryPopup.jsp?id=’+articleId+’&&offset=0&§ionName=NewsTheWeb’,'mywindow’,'menubar=0,resizable=0,width=615,height=655′); }
The movement’s champion is Andrew Keen, who argues in his book The Cult of the Amateur that free but substandard online content risks destroying entire industries. The idea that open collaborative projects can replace the work of professional individuals, he argues, represents an “extraordinary popular delusion”. Citizendium is led by Larry Sanger , a co-founder of Wikipedia, who left that website to become one of its most vocal critics.
“Wikipedia has accomplished great things, but the world can do even better,” Dr Sanger said. “By engaging expert editors, eliminating anonymous contribution and launching a more mature community under a new charter, a much broader and more influential group of people and institutions will be able to improve upon Wikipedia’s extremely useful, but often uneven work. The result will be not only enormous and free, but reliable.”
The pilot Citizendium project is invitation-only. A vetted group of editors, called “constables”, is developing a set of rules for contributors.
Gareth Leng, Professor of Experimental Physiology of the University of Edinburgh, has agreed to serve as a constable. “Public understanding of science needs scientists to help to explain, clearly and objectively, what science can do and what it can’t,” he said.
“At the Citizendium, our role will not be to tell readers what opinions they should hold, but to give them the means to decide for themselves.”
If it succeeds Citizendium may owe a large debt to Wikipedia, which was founded in 2001 and now has more than eight million articles in 253 languages – from Afrikaans to Zazaki.
It was proposed that the new project will begin life by “mirroring” – or reproducing – Wikipedia’s content, a process allowed under the site’s copyright conditions. “Contributors [to Citizendium] will then be able to edit articles,” a spokesman said. “The eventual goal will be to either improve or replace all Wikipedia-sourced content.”
Citizendium’s expert editors will then “bless” versions of articles as “approved” or trustworthy.
The aim is to stamp out the anonymous and sometimes malicious edits that have undermined Wikipedia’s reputation. In 2005 John Seigenthaler, the founding editorial director of USA Today, discovered that he had been linked to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy by a Wikipedia article. Attacking the site he called it an irresponsible haven for “volunteer vandals with poison-pen intellects”.
Last month it emerged that computers linked to politicians and large companies had made sweeping edits of Wikipedia to rewrite or erase embarrassing entries. Jimmy Wales, the site’s founder, has acknowledged Wikipedia’s limitations. “If what you are after is ‘Who won the World Cup in 1984’, Wikipedia is going to be fine,” he said. “If you want to know something more esoteric, or something controversial, you should probably use a second reference – at least.”
He told The Timesat the time of Seigenthaler’s attack that while he “worries a lot about how to make sure that articles on Wikipedia are right”, generally the site “is actually pretty good”.
That judgement was later backed up by Nature, the scientific journal, which reported that Wikipedia was as reliable as Encyclopaedia Britannica – the standard to which it aspires.
