Brian Lara could play a role in reviving West Indies' morale, says Shane Warne

Legendary Australian leg-spinner Shane Warne believes an intervention from the legendary Brian Lara is warranted in order to save the West Indies' troubled tour Down Under from becoming a full blown crisis.
Speaking after witnessing the Windies innings and 212-run defeat inside three days in the opening Test in Hobart, Warne said Lara could play a role in reviving team morale.
"Lara is in the country. They need to get him involved, spend some time with the team in Melbourne," said Warne on Tuesday, who snared 708 wickets from 145 Tests.

Lara is the highest run-getter for the West Indies in Tests with 11,953 runs in 131 matches, and remains the world-record holder for the highest scores in Tests at 400 not out and first class cricket 501 not out.
He is currently in Australia after featuring in a Festival of Cricket Twenty20 match in Western Australia last week.

Dr Laennec's stethoscope bears little semblance to the modern stethoscope. Unlike those used today, Dr Laennec's stethoscope was not a set of ear pieces connected by a plastic tube to a chest piece. His stethoscopes were simple cylinders made from wood and metal. The doctor using it would simply place it directly over the area in question and listen at the other end. 2. His first stethoscope was a rolled up piece of paper Described in his 1819 treatise on this device, Dr Laennec invented the stethoscope while treating a young woman suffering from symptoms of heart disease. 3.

Lenovo Vibe K4 Note First Impressions

Lenovo has kicked off 2016 with the new Vibe K4 Note smartphone. Those familiar with Lenovo's Note series might get puzzled with the addition of the Vibe moniker to the name, especially given the success of Lenovo K3 Note last year. Head of Product and Marketing at Lenovo Smartphones in India, Anuj Sharma, clarified that the new K4 Note has been integrated with the Vibe series of smartphones. While we are not sure if this has anything to do with the rumours that Lenovo may discontinue its Vibe range to prevent cannibalisation of Motorola sales, Sharma yet again asserted "Vibe" range is not going anywhere .
