Changes to Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service

Dear Google user,

We’re getting rid of over 60 different privacy policies across Google and replacing them with one that’s a lot shorter and easier to read. Our new policy covers multiple products and features, reflecting our desire to create one beautifully simple and intuitive experience across Google.

We believe this stuff matters, so please take a few minutes to read our updated Privacy Policy and Terms of Service at http://www.google.com/policies. These changes will take effect on March 1, 2012.

One policy, one Google experience __________________________________________________________________

Easy to work across Google

Our new policy reflects a single product experience that does what you need, when you want it to. Whether you’re reading an email that reminds you to schedule a family get-together or finding a favorite video that you want to share, we want to ensure you can move across Gmail, Calendar, Search, YouTube, or whatever your life calls for with ease.

Tailored for you

If you’re signed into Google, we can do things like suggest search queries – or tailor your search results – based on the interests you’ve expressed in Google+, Gmail, and YouTube. We’ll better understand which version of Pink or Jaguar you’re searching for and get you those results faster.

Easy to share and collaborate

When you post or create a document online, you often want others to see and contribute. By remembering the contact information of the people you want to share with, we make it easy for you to share in any Google product or service with minimal clicks and errors. __________________________________________________________________

Protecting your privacy hasn’t changed

Our goal is to provide you with as much transparency and choice as possible, through products like Google Dashboard and Ads Preferences Manager, alongside other tools. Our privacy principles remain unchanged. And we’ll never sell your personal information or share it without your permission (other than rare circumstances like valid legal requests).

Got questions? We’ve got answers.

Visit our FAQ at http://www.google.com/policies/faq to read more about the changes. (We figured our users might have a question or twenty-two.) __________________________________________________________________

Notice of Change

IPL 2012 Schedule , Fixtures and timings

Here is the latest IPL 2012 Schedule as found in the leading websites.
Looks like this edition of IPL is going to be the most exciting one in recent times . It has the best ingredients for success if things are to be seen.

Back to this circus! IPL is the root cause of India’s test failures!

IPL 2012 to start, end in Chennai

The fifth season of the Indian Premier League (IPL), comprising nine teams and 76 matches, will begin and end in Chennai, with the opening match on April 4 and the final on May 27. The teams will play each other at home and away during a league phase consisting of 72 games at 12, possibly 13, venues, beginning with the defending champions Chennai Super Kings playing Champions League T20 winners Mumbai Indians.

There won’t, however, be any matches in Sri Lanka, the BCCI apparently turning down a suggestion by Sri Lanka Cricket to stage a few games there.

The Pune Warriors franchise will host eight games at the new stadium in Pune, subject to its completion. In 2011, Pune had to stage their ‘home’ games at the DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai. Dharamsala and Visakhapatman will also host two games each, and Cuttack is listed as an alternate venue to Hyderabad for two matches.

The first Qualifier, which will be contested by the top two teams in the league, and the Eliminator, contested by Nos. 3 and 4, will be held in Bangalore. Chennai will host the second Qualifier, which will be played between the winner of the Eliminator and the loser of the first Qualifier, and the tournament final.

The tournament is scheduled to begin 12 days after the Asia Cup final and a week after the end of South Africa’s tour of New Zealand. At present there are three international series that will clash with the 2012 IPL and could affect player availability for both the franchises and the countries. Sri Lanka are hosting England in April, while West Indies host Australia and then travel to England in May.

The next player auction for the IPL is scheduled for February 4

Vodafone india IPO

UK-based telecom major Vodafone has moved a step further to list its India operations by roping in investment bank NM Rothschild to assist the listing plans. According to sources, Vodafone India has roped in investment bank NM Rothschild to assist the company in its listing plans. When contacted the company spokesperson, however, declined to comment. Sources said Rothschild will assist Vodafone to clear the regulatory hurdles, help in price discovery and valuation, restructure the complicated shareholding pattern and even help appoint the book-runners at a later stage. Last year, the company had organised in Mumbai a meet of global investors and analysts in which it had disclosed financial and other operational details. Vodafone India Chief Executive Officer Martin Pieters also made an internal announcement to employees, updating them with the IPO plan. India is one of the biggest markets for the company. It has nearly 146 million subscribers. Last year, Vodafone had bought out Indian partner Essar’s 33 per cent stake in the joint venture for USD 5.4 billion. That transaction took Vodafone’s ownership to 75.35 per cent, more than the prescribed Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) limit of 74 per cent. Domestic company Piramal Healthcare picked up a strategic 5.5 per cent in Vodafone for USD 640 million. The Piramal investment helped Vodafone meet regulatory requirements. The Vodafone Group entered India in 2007, after buying out Hutchison’s 67 per cent stake in its telecom venture with Essar for USD 11.2 billion. For the six months ended September 30, the operating free cash flow stood at USD 519 million. The company also awaits the final ruling in the tax dispute wherein the Income Tax Department had slapped a fine of USD 2.5 billion on Vodafone.
