I some how feel that the Heritage event conducted by ATP just before the start of US open this year made many former champions to alive, I mean it actually waken up the proud feeling that they already had the honor of champion, and they have nothing to loose. Hewitt played inspiring tennis yesterday and showed the world that he should not be left behind. Kudos Hewitt.
This is why I still play. To have moments like this. I was obviously trying to regroup but the conditions were tough out here. He was struggling with it for a set and a half, and then he started to find his range a bit more and I was sort of playing a bit more defensive. I had to try and turn the tables. I felt physically I was starting to get a little more on top of things through the fourth set. He played a great game to break me when I served for the fourth set as well. I played one of the best tie-breaks of my life. It’s amazing. I was pumped up when I won my first-round match because I knew obviously playing del Potro, a past champion and a great player as well, there was an opportunity to play on Arthur Ashe. I don’t know how many years I’ve got left in me, I keep getting asked the question, so I was just hanging to get out here and play on this court again and try to put on a great show" - Lleyton Hewitt

"I think tonight was a really tough battle for both, but in the end he play better. He played impressive. The tie-break on the fourth set he made very good passing shots. He's a great champion and a great fighter. For the second round, it's a really difficult player" - Juan Martin Del Potro

MeeBhoomi - A good initiative from AP Govt.

By
We bring nothing when we come to this world and we take nothing when we died. But still, what we have in the life will be valuable at least for the time we live. Wait, why I'm saying this now, because most of our valuable time is well spent on the land issues. And there is so many things need to happen to know the present owner of the land. Recently AP (Andhra Pradesh) government announces a portal for public to access all the land details.

Who we are? And what we are doing here on the Earth?

By
Ever wonder who we are? and what exactly we are doing on this Earth, the lonely planet revolving around this furious Sun along with a bunch of bros (I mean planets). Wait, this Earth? Do we have more than one Earth? Who knows, in this humongous vast space, can't we find another Earth? The probability is surely greater than Zero. Humans are evolving like anything. We invented the fire, the wheel and what not? We make our lives easier day by day. Sometimes, I feel we are also like ants.  Ants? Yes, Ants. Most of the time, many of us will not observe their movement. Perhaps we are also like ants or any creature and we are being ignored/watched by some of the invisible entities of outer space. Sometimes, I feel we are machines embedded with intelligence. Just like the robots embodied with Artificial Intelligence (AI), we are also programmed and delivered to Earth. The programmed chip may be called as DNA. A question comes in my mind, how come our children ...

Google's Stadia, the GAME changer!

By
Having a high-end computer or any one of the boxes (Xbox, PlayStation) is not necessary to play high end games in the near future. Recently Google announced a new product from its armory related to gaming at GDC2019, called Stadia . Stadia offers to stream the game in the web browser itself. The game will be loaded and run on the server side, only the video will be played on your computer/mobile. This can be called as Cloud Gaming or Game as a Service (GaaS). All we need is a decent internet connection and probably a subscription for Stadia. No need for any boxes. The traditional premium boxes will be second thought. Since they are expensive for a casual gamer, Stadia will be the best option to experience big games. High tech spec GPUs, high speed processors and all the expensive hardware part will be saved. Hmm, it sounds awesome!! This is another master plan by Google to rule the digital world. Already Google and it's echo system is way more penetrated...
