Hot Calendars ????

These days the indian corporate are aping the west in creating limited edition swimsuit calendars. I dont know why they declare it "limited edition"...whats the point. A few years back it would have been the most wanted item but nowadays with technologies at hand, these so called limited edition calendars could be done at home with models you love to have. I would have Micheal Jordan, Thiery Henry, Beckham, Salma Hayek, Tom Cruise, Heidi Klum looking down at me on my desktop. If i feel bored , i would throw them away and get a new calendar with whoever i wish to choose from the internet and print them on paper better than those of the limited edition specials....The youth in India is no longer having a "must have feeling" for these old gimmicks. Advertising agencies you mighty well know the above facts....Maybe its a lifeline for those people who want to make it big....Now do these calendars matter ?????

StreetBall

Basketball is one of the ultimate games which provides entertainment not only to the people on court but off court as well. We are fed with constant dose of the games through NBA. Those moves, dribbling, dunks, crossovers we see are amazing but all those tricks were not developed on the court but on the streets. Streetball is the heart of Basketball. There are some amazing things players do on the street which is almost non existent in NBA. There are certain videos worth watching like the AND1 MixTape Series. You have to see it to believe it. I have pushed my game one notch up after viewing these videos. Try IT / Practice IT

Today the ATP Tour "Chennai Open" came to an end with the Croatian Ljubicic dethroning the king "Carlos Moya". Its sad that it had to get over this fast but there is something else people from chennai can expect to happen in the near future. A proposal for WTA event is underway and from what IMG top managment are saying Chennai will surely be the top contender for hosting this event. Until then its Adios for Tennis at the moment and lets hope to see some top women talent play in chennai next year.
