No other sporting event captures the world's imagination like the FIFA World Cup. Ever since the first tentative competition in Uruguay in 1930, FIFA's (Fédération Internationale de Football Association) flagship has constantly grown in popularity and prestige. A group of visionary French football administrators, led in the 1920s by the innovative Jules Rimet, are credited with the original idea of bringing the world's strongest national football teams together to compete for the title of World Champions. The original gold trophy bore Jules Rimet's name and was contested three times in the 1930s, before the Second World War put a 12-year stop to the competition. When it resumed, the FIFA Wo...

By : Himanshu Pathak
s.baalu  |  Supported idea  " Obsession with cricket and non interest in football"  |  2 years ago
TOO MUCH OF IMPORTANCE IS GIVEN ONLY TO CRICKET WHICH RESULTS IN PLAYERS NOT TAKING A KEEN INTEREST IN OTHER GAMES.THE CURRENT SITUATION IN OUR COUNTRY WILL GIVE ANYONE A FEELING THAT CRICKET IS OUR NATIONAL GAME.
Shashi Kumar U  |  Added idea  "lack of professional interest in sports"  |  2 years ago
Except cricket ( which only a few countries in the world play ) and few individual achivements here and there India is not a sporting nation. We do not take sport as a career since we do not have the kind of support for it. We lack the required...

1 Jabulani ball
2 Underdogs better prepared than champions
By : Yash Singh
Rathin Deb  |  Supported idea  "Jabulani ball"  |  2 years ago
I agree with Yash on this subject. The World Cup this year is really subdued and one of the reasons or the main reason is this unknown Jabulani ball by addidas.
Vinay Desai  |  Supported idea  "Underdogs better prepared than champions"  |  2 years ago
Watch The matches it is all clear. The Teams We All Thought are there to fill the vacant seats and and go away soon. But these teams not only Have stayed there But also have Made  [lace in Both people's heart and FIFA.

Pakistan has a much smaller manpower of 1,449,000 personell which is proportionally higher than India in terms of their population ratios. Pakistan’s ground forces are equipped with American or Chinese weapons like FIM 92 Stinger SAMs, BGM-71 TOW anti-tank missiles, T-82 tanks and other equipments. Indian ground forces are equipped mostly by home-made or Soviet technologies like IR guided 9K35 Strela-10 SAMs, 3rd Gen IR guided Nag anti-tank missiles, UAVs and a large inventory of tanks and support vehicles. In terms of numbers and equipments, both Indian and Pakistani ground forces are on an closely equal footing.

In world of financial engineering , I have this information to share with you . Well the financial risks could be averted by adopting these measures . Have a look at these measures and you will know ..... The concept of livelihood insurance, where contracts will protect individuals from long-term economic risks such as the loss of a paycheck or the depreciation of one's home value. The concept of what he terms "macro markets" - where individuals, corporations, and governments alike can trade or hedge risks associated with the fluctuations in GDP or national incomes. The concept of income-linked loans - where lenders will make loans to governments, corporations or individuals whose repayment terms are tied to the incomes of these entities. Such repayment terms could be a certain percentage of one's income, which would cause the outstanding balance to decline if income levels decline. This would reduce the change of bankruptcies but will also alleviate our fears of taking more risks...

Facts about "Jana Gana Mana" - Just a thought for the National Anthem! How well do you know about it?     I have always wondered who is the "adhinayak" and "bharat bhagya vidhata",    whose praise we are singing. I thought might be Motherland India! Our current National Anthem "Jana Gana Mana" is sung throughout the country.   Did you know the following about our national anthem, I didn't.   To begin with, India's national anthem, Jana Gana Mana Adhinayaka, was written by Rabindranath Tagore in honour of King George V and the Queen of  England when they visited India in 1919.   To honour their visit Pandit Motilal  Nehru had the five stanzas included, which are in praise of the King and  Queen. (And most of us think it is in the praise of our great motherland!! !)   In the original Bengali verses only those provinces that were under British rule, i.e. Punjab, Sindh, Gujarat, Maratha etc. were mentioned. None of  the  princely states were recognised which are integral parts of India...

India has formally cleared the biggest-ever Indo-US defence deal, the $4.1 billion contract for 10 C-17 Globemaster-III giant strategic airlift aircraft. All decks for the almost Rs 19,000-crore deal, which will support over 22,000 jobs in the US as Barack Obama himself put it, were cleared last month. On Monday, the Cabinet Committee on Security chaired by PM Manmohan Singh gave the final go-ahead for the contract, under which the 10 Globemasters are to be delivered to IAF between 2013 and 2015. The $4.1 billion deal, in fact, could well become even bigger at a later stage. "They are fantastic aircraft, which we chose after a deep study of what all was available in the world market...After the first 10 Globemasters, we will examine the option to go in for another six,'' IAF chief Air Chief Marshal P V Naik told . Capable of carrying a maximum payload of 77.5 tonnes, which can include combat vehicles, artillery guns and battle-ready troops, the Boeing-manufactured Globemasters will...
