Football is definitely the King of Sports at present but it has a strong competition with cricket specially after the success of Indian Premier League. IPL has the potential to outrun football and make cricket number one in this race.

Finally a good news for the Indian cricket after the Mumbai attack. England team has decided to play the upcoming test series in Indian soil after getting the assurance of high sucerity for them. Stephen Harmison and Andrew Flintoff have also decided to be part of the squard which means Englang will be coming with their full strength. Earlier it was said that even if English team comes to play in India, their senior players will not be with them. But now as they are coming here, its a good news both for cricket and its fans.Hope we see a tight series ahead.

When I hear the word Europe, what comes in my mid is the eiffel tower and the other monuments that I saw on tv in my childhood. Another thing is the tasteless food there. All kinds of Europian food tastes same to me. Apart from food, I have a very pleasent image of the continent.

Running!!! Must say that it is the best excercise to build stamina and endurance. But I feel too lazy to do that so have not made any attempts since long. During m school days, we being part of the sports team, were forced to run for 15 minutes daily . This part of the excercise I hated the most.

How about a movie about the recent Mumbai attacks? You can show everything in it: International linkages (India, USA, Israel puttig pressure on Pakistan to handover the terror organizations), global terrorism (LeT and Al Quida), the political developments taking place after the attack (instability in the India government and new deals signed among nations to fight against terrorism), action (fight against the terrorists and the NSA), tragedy (the slains and the victims of the terror). You can also include a love story of a couple held as hostages in the Taj.

Good work. Let me add two more languages to your arenaOoria : Mu tumoku baalo paaeNagameese : Aami tumoku muram kare

I was lean and joined a gym for 3 months. The instructor asked me to eat anything I wanted but he also suggested some compulsary items to be added in my list. I am a vegeratian so ignoring the meat part, I was asked to have bananas with milk in the morning in addition to my regular breakfast. He also asked me to have paneer and pulses as they are rich in protien.But to others, he asked not to have fried and fat rich food. Carbohydrate, protien and fibre rich food was suggestd

To avoid someone, you can either tell him in face about your dislike so that in future he/she doesn't bother you. Or else, you can make the person feel that you are avoiding him by your acts. Now these acts depends on the openness of the culture and the person to be avoided. for example, in some cultures, its perfectly fine not to speak to the person when you encounter him but in others, it may be a huge blow to his ego. But personally I suggest that nothing could be solved by ignoring a person. Its just that you are hiding form yourself. Instead, you can meet him and sort out the issues. If you are successful in closing the issues, its well and good otherwise bring your relationship to an end with mutual concent.

MbaFactory, I would like to differ a bit on this. The average age in China is much higher than India and the situation is going to go worse in the next two decades or so. This gives a definite advantage to India as currently, the main strength of both the countries is their manpower. It is expected that by next 35 years, India will overtake China at financial fronts. China will face the problems that Japan is facing these days.

To your surrise, the worst game for me is age of empiresPeople who have played stronghold crusader can understand why i am saying this. Those who started playing crusader before age of empire can never like that game.

I would like to summarize the political aftereffects of the Mumbai AttackThe Home Minister Shivraj Patil resigned from the post. Resignation accepted. P Chidambram made the new Home Minister of India.The National Secrity Advisor Mr M K Narayan also resigned but the resignation was not acceptedThe Chief Minister of Maharashtra Shivraj Patil and Deputy Chief Minister R R Patil resigned from the post owing moral responsibility but due to internal conflicts within Congress, they were asked to remain on the seats. This decision was condemned by the allies of congress as they were already demanding the esignation of the CM due to the inctiveness of the government in the aggetations against the north Indians by the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena and Siva Sena workes. Under pressure from the allies, the congress high command pulls back their decision of keeping shivaj patil as the CM of maharashtra.Contest between Ashok chavan and Shinde for the seat of the chief minister of maharashtra.

Culture is the gift an dblessings fro our ancestors to us... It is their experience and learnings of decades that they have given us in heritage... A culture is a path of vision for a person to understand the difference between the right and wrong. It is a shield which protects us from all the sins and the evils and also guides and dictates us the ethical behaviours that should be followedIt is the most valuable asset and should be conserved and followed in ups and dwns of life

My favourate sport is cricket... i have been playing this game since my childhood and the passion of this game has always increased for meleast favoutare game accordin to me is hockey... I find this game boring so i dont play... this is what i tell people when asked(actually i cant handle the ball with that stick so am not good at it thats why i dont like to play hockey... )

best sport to watch is wrestling... the thrill and the excitement they create is far ahead to other sports... people may say that wwe is fake but according to me sports are for entertainment and to create excitement among the viewers and wrestling does the same better than any other sport

Almost all the religions prevailing in the world are worshiped here... Stillwe can proudly say that we are all unitedProud to an Indian

I am interested in nalysing and discussing the political and economical developments taking place all over the world (especially Inda)... like every other Indian, I am also passionate about cricket...Well, thats all about me... looking forward to make new friends here...

Ya... its sad and true. we cant blame them as whatever the security BCCI provides them with, we were not in a position to convince them. Taj and Oberoi were also considered secured. Its good for the Indian cricket that the challenger trophy teams were not here during all this.They were suppossed to stay in the Taj.I just pray that everything goes fine in the test series. and hopefully we will repeat success story of the one day series.
