Sydney, March 1: Australian batsman Mike Hussey believes the spate of controversies and the verbal duels with India will not distract his team when they go into the cricket tri-series finals on Sunday.

The war of words between the two teams took an ugly turn this week with Australian opener Matthew Hayden calling off-spinner Harbhajan Singh an ‘obnoxious little weed’ and the Indians lodging a written complaint with Match Referee Jeff Crowe against the hosts for their provocative behaviour.

"I think it is important that we don't let all of the distractions play any part in our mind, if we play on emotion sometimes those distractions can have a detrimental effect on your performance," Hussey said.

"So it is important that we just concentrate on our plans, our goals and execute our skills as well as possible."

Hussey also hoped that Hayden and Andrew Symonds, who have been at the centre of most of these unsavoury episodes, were able to throw the issues out of their minds.

"What I can say is that they are extremely professional cricketers. Extremely mentally tough cricketers, and I am sure they will be able to put any controversy out of their mind and concentrate solely on cricket," he said.

Content management systems were initially developed internally at organizations which were doing a lot of content publishing. In 1995, CNET spun out its internal development offerings into a separate company called Vignette. The company started offering the software as a web-based content management system, allowing sites to create templates of the presentation of their content on the web. In 1998 , Pencom Web Works, a consulting company, introduced the Metaphoria Data Transformation Server, allowing Java developers to write applications that would be tied with content and target the content output to different channels. The product failed but the concepts that were introduced by it made their way into most modern systems. The term Content Management System (CMS) was first synonymous with a UK company called Site kit, who exhibited their 'instant web publishing' (latterly CMS) at Cebit in Germany. The term was originally intended for web site publishing systems and web site management systems, however the term is now used to refer to a vast range of technologies and techniques, including portal systems, wiki systems and web based groupware.There are several recognized types of content management systems: * Web content management systems assist in automating various aspects of web publishing, such as wikis. * Transactional content management systems (T-CMS) assist in managing e-commerce transactions. * Integrated content management systems (I-CMS) assist in managing enterprise documents and content. * Publications management systems (P-CMS) assist in managing the publications (manuals, books, help, guidelines, references) content life cycle. * Learning management systems (L-CMS) assist in managing the web-based learning content life cycle. See also managed learning environment. * Document imaging systems are also generally considered under the family of general content management. * Enterprise content management systems (E-CMS) vary in their functionality. Some support both the web and publications content life cycle, while others support the web content life cycle and either transactional content or customer relationship management content. The definition of AIIM for ECM includes methods and tools that "capture, manage, store, preserve and deliver" content across an enterprise. "Manage" contains components like document management, collaboration, business process management, records management, email management, workflow and web content management. The ECM concept is not restricted to web based technologies but includes client/server and hosted/ On-demand solutions. - web designer, web design company
