What’s a ‘No Deposit’ bonus?
One thing about betting at the online casino as opposed to offline is that you are able to win yourself a wide range of bonuses. Yes, they are only bonuses and not the reason to gamble online, but they can definitely make for a more exciting and obviously, more profitable online gambling experience. One of the best kinds is the ‘No Deposit’ bonus, which is basically what it sounds like – sign up to an online casino using one of its exclusive casino bonus codes, and you will get free money without even having to male a first deposit! It’s one of the many ways they try tempt you into opening an account – but hey, free money is free money in my eyes!

HOW STRONG IS TENNIS IN INDIA
The debate has once again begun — who after Leander Paes and
Mahesh Bhupathi? This poser has become a constant teaser following
the regular failure of the Indian players to live up to
expectations. Tennis standard in Asia is not comparable to what
prevails in the developed world, yet the fact that the Indian
players, particularly the men, struggle to hold out their own, in
the singles event in particular, is indeed a cause for worry.
What has happened to all those high-brow tennis academies, who
charge a fortune to train the players, and promise to churn out
"stars by the dozens" and the myriad "schemes" initiated by the
All-India Tennis Association (AITA)?
Paes won an Olympic medal. And Indians seem to have decided
there can be no-one like Leander or Mahesh and they cannot be,
should not be emulated.
Rohan Bopanna, Harsh Mankad, Prakash Amritraj and some of
the younger lot seem to be high on expectations and low
Is the Indian tennis cup board bare, sans Leander and Mahesh?

GOING FOR IT!!!!!
It was the district track meet- the one everyone wanted to win, the one for which everyone worked and trained hard the rest of the year. But i recently had an operation in my foot and it hasn't healed yet. I, even had a dilemma whether i should attend the meet or not. But, there i was preparing for the 800 metres.
Ready.....set.... the gun popped and we were off. The other girls darted ahead of me. I realised i was limping and felt humiliated as i fell farther and farther behind. When the first runner up crossed the line and the crowd cheered her with the loudest one I have ever heard, I was one whole lap behind. " Maybe I should quit," I thought. But, something inside me kept me going and when I finished, I got a cheer as enthusiastic as for the first girl who crossed the line. I din't understand what it was all about. I turned back and saw the boys preparing for their race. " So, that must be it. they must be cheering for the boys," I thought. I decided that I will never come to the tracks again.
I went straight for the dressing room where a girl who bumped into me said,"Wow! You are great. If it had been me, I would have quit in the first lap itself. What happened to your foot? Did you hear us cheering you?"
I just couldn't believe it. A complete stranger was cheering for me because she wanted me not to give up and keep going. A new hope sprung inside me and I decided to stick with the track the next year too. That day, I realised that strength and courage are not measured in medals and victories, but in the going for it.

TANGIER
Tangier is one of the most famous places to visit in Morocco. It has so many places of attraction which include pristine white beaches, wind surfing acrobatics and camel rides. The other places of attraction include Place de France, the Mendoubia Gardens,The Caves of Hercules and Grand Socco. But,the night life of Tangier is something to get excited about. Except for a few good bars and discos, the night life is not something too good to talk about. Getting around Tangier is also pretty easy with taxis and city buses. Accomodation is also pretty cheap with a lot of hotels and pensions in the Medina and the Ville Nouvelle. It also has two campsites, the Camping Miramonte and Camping Tingis. They are situated to the city centre and at a walking distance from the beaches.

Air Force on the lookout of new fuel alternatives
The US air force seems to have finally found out an 'alternative
fuel', it has landed up on the age old traditional fuel - coal !!! It has
decided to tap the country's large reserves of its coal. This will make
the air force less dependant on the imported oil making the air force
self sufficient. With the rising oil prices, this decision would help
reduce the country's expenditure on defence forces . But this decision
has put the environmentalists under a red alert . The decision to use coal
will definitely add to the problem of global warming and air pollution.

Kumble declines any drift within the squad
hi friends,
India's Test captain Anil Kumble on Saturday accused the media of creating the "senior-junior" controversy and said the team was committed to work for success in both forms of the game. "I think senior-junior (controversy) is not with the team members... it is the media that has made it out to be. I don't know why they talk of cricket players like this," he told at a press conference ahead of the first Test against South Africa starting in Chennai on March 26.He said the players had been playing good cricket and performed exceptionally well in the last one year. "I can assure you that there is no question of junior-senior. It is all about ensuring that we play to our potential, be committed to our roles and work for the success of the team. That is what is happening in both formats of the game," Kumble
cheers!
