Patric viera's inspired display brings France along with all the former champions barring Urugway who didn't qualify in to the knockout stage. Argentina struggled against Mexico and herdly looked like the same side that mauled S&M.their passing was indifferent and worst their ball possession, the hallmark of this argentime team was hardly inspiring. However with a dazzling shot from Rodrigues allows them into a clash with the increasingly peaking Germans who sealed their way into the quarters against Sweden in the first 12 mins of the game itself with goals from Podolski who partnered with Klose for a very great finish. This partnesrship is looking deadly for their opponents. Brazil is lucky enough that they don't have germany or argentina in their way to the final.

Podolski, Ballack add to the glittereing forwardline..add this to the well known German grit and you have a team ready to go all the way in this world cup.. my predictions: fina...

That the very name synonymous with poverty and ignorance today was once a citadel of growth and development.Such is the travesty of destiny that most biharis themselves are unaware of what a great and indomitable lineage they belong to.A small attempt is hereby made to highlight the past glory that once this region knew and proudly belonged to. Nalanda (in the pic), founded in the 5th century AD, is famous as the ancient seat of learning. The ruins of the world's most ancient university lies here which is 62 km from Bodhgaya and 90 km south of Patna. Hieun Tsang stayed here in the 7th century AD and left detailed description of the excellence of education system and purity of monastic life practiced here.
