Dawes named as India's new bowling coach

The BCCI has announced that Australian Joe Dawes will take over from Eric Simons as India's bowling coach after the tour of Australia.

Dawes is a former Queensland fast bowler who played 76 first class matches from 1997 to 2005. He was the bowling coach of Adelaide Strikers in the Big Bash League.

Simons has been associated with the Indian team since 2010 when he was roped in by then coach Gary Kirsten. Simons' contract expires at the end of the current tour Down Under.

All is not lost for Simons, however. The South African still has a job as coach of the Delhi Daredevils for the forthcoming edition of the IPL

East Zone create history to win maiden Duleep Trophy title


 East Zone kept their date with history as they crushed Central Zone by an innings and 20 runs to win their maiden Duleep Trophy title in an emphatic manner on Tuesday.

Enjoying a commanding first-innings lead of 237, East Zone pace duo of Ashok Dinda (3/94) and Mohammed Shami Ahmed (4/50) shared the bulk of spoils as Central's innings terminated at 217 for nine. Vineet Saxena, who was nursing a finger injury, didn't come out to bat.

While Shami had the best match figures of 8/123, Dinda will remember this first-class season in which he finished with 59 scalps from nine games leaving the second highest wicket-taker Taduri Sudhindra (44 wickets) way behind.

The Central batsmen didn't show the gumption required to save the match. To make a match of it, patience was the key but Central batsmen weren't prepared to stay at the wicket.

RBI Policy Rates

CRR (Cash Reserve Ratio):


                      Cash reserve Ratio (CRR) is the amount of funds that the banks have to keep with RBI. If RBI decides to increase the percent of this, the available amount with the banks comes down. RBI is using this method (increase of CRR rate), to drain out the excessive money from the banks.







SLR (Satutory Liquidity Ratio):


                         SLR (Statutory Liquidity Ratio) is the amount a commercial bank needs to maintain in the form of cash, or gold or govt. approved securities (Bonds) before providing credit to its customers. SLR rate is determined and maintained by the RBI (Reserve Bank of India) in order to control the expansion of bank credit.


Repo Rate:


                         Whenever the banks have any shortage of funds they can borrow it from RBI. Repo rate is the rate at which our banks borrow rupees from RBI. A reduction in the repo rate will help banks to get money at a cheaper rate. When the repo rate increases borrowing from RBI becomes more expensive




Reverse Repo Rate:


                          Reverse Repo rate is the rate at which Reserve Bank of India (RBI) borrows money from banks. Banks are always happy to lend money to RBI since their money are in safe hands with a good interest. An increase in Reverse repo rate can cause the banks to transfer more funds to RBI due to this attractive interest rates. It can cause the money to be drawn out of the banking system.


Bank Rate:

                        
                            This is the rate at which RBI lends money to other banks (or financial institutions .
The bank rate signals the central bank’s long-term outlook on interest rates. If the bank rate moves up, long-term interest rates also tend to move up, and vice-versa.
Banks make a profit by borrowing at a lower rate and lending the same funds at a higher rate of interest. If the RBI hikes the bank rate (this is currently 6 per cent), the interest that a bank pays for borrowing money (banks borrow money either from each other or from the RBI) increases. It, in turn, hikes its own lending rates to ensure it continues to make a profit.

Inflation & Deflation


What is Inflation?

Inflation is defined as an increase in the price of bunch of Goods and services that projects the Indian economy. An increase in inflation figures occurs when there is an increase in the average level of prices in Goods and services. Inflation happens when there are less Goods and more buyers, this will result in increase in the price of Goods, since there is more demand and less supply of the goods.


 
What is Deflation?
 Deflation is the continuous decrease in prices of goods and services. Deflation occurs when the inflation rate becomes negative (below zero) and stays there for a longer period.

During deflation the price of goods and services is falling and consumers will tend to delay their purchases until prices fall further. This will cause for a lower production, lower wages and demand which will lead to further decrease in prices.



RBI raises bank rate to 9.5%


The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Monday realigned the bank rate to marginal standing facility (MSF) rate in one-time technical adjustment. The bank rate now stands at 9.5 per cent as against six per cent earlier.
Any change in the MSF rate will lead to revision in the bank rate accordingly. The MSF rate is linked to the policy rate or repo rate, which is at 8.5 per cent. “This should be viewed and understood as a one-time technical adjustment to align the bank rate with the MSF rate, rather than a change in the monetary policy stance,” said RBI in a statement.
The central bank said the bank rate would be act as a penalty for banks that fail to meet reserve requirements under the Cash Reserve Ratio and Statutory Liquidity Ratio mandates. According to RBI norms, banks must maintain minimum 5.5 per cent of CRR and 24 per cent of SLR. The bank rate is also used by several other organisations as a reference rate for indexation purposes, said RBI.

Rs 24.5 lakh crore black money in Swiss banks: CBI

Outstripping the presumptive loss in the 2G spectrum scam, Indian black money stashed away in foreign banks is estimated at a staggering $(US) 500 billion or close to Rs 24.5 lakh crore, a revelation made by none other than the CBI, the country’s premier investigation agency.

“It is estimated that around $500 billion of illegal money belonging to Indians is deposited in tax havens abroad. Largest depositors in Swiss banks are also reported to be Indians,” CBI Director A P Singh said after inaugurating an agency to train Interpol officers on how to investigate and recover black money.

Singh’s statement on black money is significant since this is the first time that he is coming clean on Indians’ slush funds abroad.

During the recent winter session of Parliament, Union Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee had promised to bring out a white paper on black money. Quoting figures of Global Financial Integrity, he had said that from 1948 to 2008, about $213 billion was stashed away by Indians in foreign banks. “At the current value, this would amount to $462 billion,” Mukherjee had said.

Noted Urdu Poet Akhlaq Khan 'Shahryar' Dead

Noted urdu poet and Jnanpith awardee Akhlaq Mohammed Khan, who shot to fame for penning ghazals in Bollywood classics like 'Umrao Jaan', passed away here today after a protracted illness. He was 76.

The poet, better known by his pseudonym Shahryar, is survived by his two sons and a daughter.

Khan, who also won the Sahitya Akademi Award in 1987, was one of the most celebrated writers of ghazals and nazm in Urdu language

Born in Aonla town in Bareilly district on June 19, 1936, Khan pursued his higher education at Aligarh Muslim University, before obtaining a PhD and joining the university's faculty in 1966.

He retired as Chairman of the university's Urdu department in 1996.

Khan drew national fame as a lyricist for the words he penned in films like Gaman, Umrao Jaan and Anjuman.

According to a spokesperson of AMU, the poet will be laid to rest at the University's graveyard tomorrow afternoon.

"The Artist” Wins 7 British Academy Awards


There’s no such thing as a “done deal” but “The Artist” looks like it’s headed to a big Oscar night on February 26th. Over the weekend the Michel Hazanavicius directed silent film picked up 7 BAFTA awards from the British Film Academy. The film won Best Picture, Actor, and Director, plus Original Screenplay and Score. There was nothing, however, for Uggie, and nothing for Berenice Bejo, who’s having the unfortunate experience of watching everyone else from “The Artist” win awards while she loses to Octavia Spencer from “The Help” for Best Supporting Actress. Not to take away from Spencer, but Bejo is a marvel as Peppy Miller, the plucky Hollywood ingenue who becomes a superstar.
Best Actress went to Meryl Streep for “The Iron Lady.” This was a pretty controversial choice in England considering Streep played Margaret Thatcher in a way that surprised the Brits. But I do think that Streep is on target now for the Oscar over Viola Davis in “The Help.” Anything could change, but Streep’s body of work and her superlative performance in this film especially should lead to a win. Davis has a lot of of Oscars, Tonys, and Emmys in her future, of that there is no doubt.
As for “The Artist,” the real shock is that Jean DuJardin has picked up this momentum for Best Actor. He’s winning contests against Brad Pitt and George Clooney. I can’t imagine what those two guys must be thinking. They’ve each done their best work ever in “Moneyball” and “The Descendants.” “The Artist” came out of left field, a total shock. But Du Jardin is so appealing and charming in “The Artist,” and he’s obviously appealing to voters looking for someone new to choose from.

Adele Wins 6 Grammys

 
British R&B singer Adele was rolling in awards at the 54th Grammy Awards Sunday in Los Angeles, winning all six categories in which she was nominated.
Her album 21 won the top prize of album of the year, as well as best pop vocal album.  Her song Rolling in the Deep won record of the year, song of the year and best short-form music video.  Adele also won best pop solo performance for Someone Like You.

The Cockney singer's highly anticipated performance at the Grammys was her first live performance since having surgery in October on her vocal chords.

The Grammy Awards show began on a somber note as host LL Cool J offered a prayer for Whitney Houston, the iconic singer who was found dead Saturday. The 48-year-old singer and actress was a six-time Grammy award winner. Police say they are still investigating the cause of her death, but said there was no evidence of criminal involvement.

Academy Award-winning singer Jennifer Hudson sang a soulful rendition of Houston's hit I Will Always Love You as a tribute.

Singer Whitney's death

The 48-year-old singer, who had battled years of addiction, was found dead in her room at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles hours before she was due to attend a star-studded party downstairs.
Two bodyguards, a hairdresser and stylist were believed to have been in her room at the time and discovered her body, with her head under water, after becoming concerned that she had been in the bathroom for more than an hour.
Prescription drugs, but no illegal drugs, were found in the suite. Houston was known to take Xanax, a drug to ease anxiety that can cause drowsiness. Anti-anxiety drugs Valium and lorazepam were also believed to have been found.
Paramedics tried to resuscitate her for 20 minutes but she was pronounced dead at 3.55pm local time on Saturday. Police said there were no "obvious signs" of criminal activity.
The death of the winner of six Grammys cast a shadow over the 54th edition of the awards last night. Houston was to have attended the ceremony.
Soul legend Aretha Franklin, who was Houston's godmother, said: "It's so stunning and unbelievable. I couldn't believe what I was reading coming across the TV screen."
"She will never be forgotten as one of the greatest voices to ever grace the Earth," singer Mariah Carey posted on Twitter, while Dolly Parton said: "Mine is only one of millions of hearts broken."
Last Thursday, witnesses said Houston had displayed erratic behaviour, including doing handstands by the Beverly Hilton Hotel pool. Later that night she was seen looking dishevelled at a nightclub. A video showed her performing briefly in a faltering voice. On Friday night she was also seen "partying hard" in the hotel bar with friends.
She had also attended rehearsals for the Grammys, and her behaviour there was described as erratic. She was said to have been sweating and alcohol was smelled on her breath.
She spoke to her mother, Cissy Houston, by telephone half an hour before she died and was said to have been looking forward to the party. Her daughter Bobbi Kristina, 19, was also at the hotel.
As news of Houston's death spread, tributes poured in from fans across the world. The Grammy Awards were transformed to include tributes, including one to be sung by Jennifer Hudson.
From the mid-1980s to the late 1990s, the gospel-trained Houston was one of the world's best-selling recording artists. She mesmerised audiences with her powerful vocals, released seven studio albums and sold 170 million CDs, singles and videos.
Songs like I Will Always Love You and Saving All My Love became global hits and Houston starred in films, including The Bodyguard with Kevin Costner.
But her career began to unravel as she battled drug addiction, spent spells in rehab and embarked on a tumultuous 15-year marriage to singer Bobby Brown. In a 2002 interview, Houston said: "The biggest devil is me."
Her marriage to Brown ended in 2007 and two years later she made a comeback, but many fans were unimpressed.
SkyNews reported late last night that Bobbi Kristina had been taken to hospital due to stress.
