How is a cricketer’s batting average calculated?

Jul 04, 2008 in How


How is a cricketer’s batting average calculated? I have been wanting to know about this calculation. Being a mathematics teacher, I thought I should have learnt it long ago.

In fact, I have been asked this question by my students but somehow I have been evading answering it.

I happen to read about in Times of India and here is the excerpt.

“In cricket, a player’s batting average is the total number of runs he has scored divided by the number of times he has been out. Since the number of runs a player scores and how often he gets out are primarily measures of his playing ability, and largely independent of his team mates, the batting average is a good statistic to describe an individual player’s skill as a batsman. The number is also simple to interpret intuitively, being approximately the average number of runs the batsman scores per innings.”

How to manifest your desires?

May 25, 2008 in How

The exact meaning of manifesting means the things you desire which are already yours and exist in another level, have to show up in physical form.

The moment you desire anything desires you and has presented itself in non-physical form. All you have to manifest it in physical form is to receive it or allow it to present itself.

So simple-right? But what else you have to do to receive it?

Here is an e-book that can reveal to you simple steps you have to perform to manifest anything you desire. 

Everyday Manifesting is an astonishing e-book that has served millions of people including me.

How to increase wealth?

May 22, 2008 in How

In the spiritual realm, it is said that to increase your wealth and get rich, you must develop wealth consciousness.

It is often asked how to develop wealth consciousness when there is no wealth!

Here are some steps that one needs to practice in order to build wealth consciousness.

*Spend your money judiciously. I mean, don’t deny yourself any of your wants and luxuries but don’t buy anything you really don’t want. Don’t try imitate to neighbors in order to impress them.
* When you spend, believe that it will be replaced. Don’t think that it will deplete your balance. Above all, don’t regret immediately after making a spend. To avoid this, think several times before spending.
*When you write a check for a bill, say thanks to God that you have money to pay and again believe that money goes out will be returned several times in your bank.
*Don’t ever utter this, “I cannot afford this”. If you want something but don’t have money at present, say it to your mind that “I will have this, I intend to have this”. The universe will see to it that you are provided.

Please note that, I have not used the word “buy” in the above sentence but used he word “have’.
It means, you are open to receive the product even without spending your money.

How a few messages can change your life for better.

If you are open minded, I am sure you will read fully.

I am sure you might have heard about so many personality development classes that are cropping up in multitudes.

I see advertisements in my local daily every week. I confess I have been tempted a few times to enroll but worked up enough courage to enroll.

Then one day, I stumbled on to news item about subliminal mind power..

Subliminal mind is about programming your subconscious mind positively without your conscious effort. You can program your subconscious mind to achieve anything that you desire.

It is in a sense, tapping your hidden mind power hitherto unused by you.

You never need to give your full attention during this entire process.

It can change your inner personality with in a few days. You can boost your self confidence, enjoy unlimited peace, have wonderfully healthy life and attract wealth.

All you require is only 10 minutes a day. No reading is required on your conscious part. No physical exercise also.

How to lead a stress free life?

Apr 29, 2008 in How

Ah, the stress! It is the most used by word by all of us. Do you know that even a kid studying in 3rd class says this word?

Well, that is a different issue. Let me talk about the stress we feel, talk about, think about and may not really worry about its negative impact on us.

Let me assure that

*I am not going to prescribe any medicine to relieve your stress;

*I am not going to suggest any exercise for which you don’t have time.

*There is no meditation involved to free you of stress.

*And above all, there is no special food.

Then what?

I am just going to point out to you the cause of so called stress and who is responsible?

Yes, you are responsible for your stressed out feeling. I quote Eckhart Tolle below from his book, The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment”
“Stress is caused by being here but wanting to be there. It is insane to live with such an inner split. We are all so busy getting to the future, the next minute or the next hour that the present is just reduced to a means of getting there.”

Now, you got the point? If not, please read it again and analyze your stress feeling when it happens.

How to buy a fuel efficient car.

Apr 24, 2008 in How

Do you know why I have not yet bought a car? Here is my husband’s cliché: “We can buy a car but fuel?”

He is right after all. The world is witnessing today the continuous rise in fuel cost. The so called economists and politicians might vary in their view about the reason for the fuel price escalation but the fact is we only pay the price.

In this scenario, how to buy a ‘fuel efficient car’ tips is worth x00000 dollars. (Replace x with a numeric value that you deem fit).

Do you know that the typical American vehicle racks up about 12,000 miles per year? Based on various reports and statistics, I will give you an idea of how much an 8-cylinder SUV vehicle would cost to fuel at 12,000 miles per year. 1 year: $2806 7 years: $ 19,642

Here is a choice to consider that is often overlooked:

Choosing a lower axle ratio is an intelligent move if you want to reduce the fuel consumption.

Read why…
