iOS or Android??
There has always been a fight between the two. And the result is still unknown; anyhow, depends on personal views!
User interface
Both have an excellent user interface. Android makes the cut above iOS when comes to flexibility and UI range. iOS is simple whereas android features a much more powerful UI letting things u want to do,more easily.
iOS is not much flexible or customisable as android, but appears a whole lot nicer! The android apps aren't much pretty as and when compared! This is because Google doesn't take designs seriously!

RAFAEL NADAL... THE FAMOUS TENNIS PLAYER!!!!!
No Tennis player since Andre Agassi has captivated the world like
Rafael Nadal. He's a rarity in today's sporting arena- a true sportsman who
chooses to let his raw talent, dedication and humility define him.
Rapidly closing in on his friend and rival Roger Federer's record
haul of 16 grand slam victories, Nadal is an extraordinary competitor whose
ferocity on court is made even more remarkable by his grace off it.
Born on 3 June 1986, Rafael Nadal is a Spanish
professional tennis player and world no.1. As of 18 February 2013, he is ranked No. 5 by
the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP). He is regarded as one of
the greatest players of all time; his success on clay has earned him
the nickname "The King of Clay", and has prompted several experts to
regard him as the greatest clay court player in history. At age eight,
Nadal won an under-12 regional tennis championship at a time when he was also a
promising football player. Nadal's father made him choose between football
and tennis so that his school work would not deteriorate entirely. Nadal said:
"I chose tennis. Football had to stop straight away."When he was 14,
the Spanish tennis federation requested that he leave Majorca and move to
Barcelona to continue his tennis training.In May 2001, he defeated former
Grand Slam tournament champion Pat Cash in a clay-court exhibition match.
At 15, he turned pro. Nadal participated in two events on
the ITF junior circuit. In 2002, at the age of 16, Nadal reached the
semifinals of the Boy's Singles tournament at Wimbledon, in his first ITF
junior event.
By the age of 17, he beat Roger Federer the first time
they played and became the youngest man to reach the third round at Wimbledon
since Boris Backer. At 18, he helped pace Spain over the US in the junior Davis
Cup in his second, and final, appearance
on the ITF junior circuit. At 19, Nadal won the French Open the first time he
played it, a feat not accomplished in Paris for more than 20 years. He
eventually won it the first four times he played at Roland Garros. In
2003, he had won the ATP Newcomer of the year Award. Early in his career,
Nadal picked up the trademark habit of biting the trophies he won.
Nadal owns an Aston MArtin DBS V12 He lived with his
parents and younger sister Maria Isabel in a five-story apartment building in
their hometown of Manacor, Mallorca. In June 2009, Spanish newspaper LA Vanguardia,
and then The New York TImes, reported that his parents, Ana Maria
and Sebastian, had separated. This news came after weeks of speculation in
Internet posts and message boards over Nadal's personal issues as the cause of
his setback. He has revealed himself to be agnostic When a young
boy, he would run home from school to watch Goku in his favorite
Japanese anime, Dragon Ball. CNN released an article
about Nadal's childhood inspiration, and called him "the Dragon Ball of
tennis" due to his unorthodox style "from another planet."
Nadal's autobiography, Rafa, written with assistance
from John Carlin was published in August 2011. Since 2005, Nadal has
been dating Maria Francisca Perello, an insurance company employee
from Palma, Majorca with a degree in Business
Administration In addition to tennis and football, Nadal enjoys playing
golf.

The Delhi Gangrape Incident
So, what happened to the Delhi Gang rape incident at last????
Time comes and flies away.
People remember certain incidents for some time, talk a lot, have debates, quarrels, pubic rallies, etc.
There was a time when everyone had no other topic to discuss other than the victim (The so called "Damini"). There were huge rallies including men, women and students. Some attacked parliament. Some showed agressiveness. But as time flies by, nobody cares to look back and see if justice has been done or not.
The position of women in our society is still the same. Men are still on their best! Eveteasing, harrassing and other various ways of their pleasure! No changes in the society at all! So how does it matter if we agitate or not when the security of women in India still remains the same.
The girl died. Who sufferd? Only the girl and her family. People could only talk about them.
Everyday when we read through the newspapers, we still find a rape incident or two or even more.
Minors are the most affected of them. How can someone even imagine to rape a 6 month old? Is he a devil or even more than that!
