Keno game 101- what you absolutely need to know

By Mansi gupta | Published 11/28/2005 | Entertainment | Rating:
‘Keno’ is a well known game nowadays. It is frequently played and appreciated by people in America. However, the game was not born in America. It is a gift of China. The game has a long history, which also reveals the benefits that people of China accrued of this game. Keno is an invention of a Chinese named Cheung Leung. Through the revenue of this game he wanted to help the soldiers of his town with arms and other material to ward off an attack. He succeeded in his motive and the game started to spread and develop. For some time the game was also known as the ‘White Pigeon Game’ when a white pigeon acted as a postman carrying the list of results of the game from village to village. But the game was not of numbers at that time as it is today. It was in fact based on a traditional Chinese poem called- “The Thousand Character Classic”. Later the game traveled to the land of America with the Chinese immigrants. There it was widely known as ‘Chinese Lottery’ and then ‘Horse Race Keno’. The term ‘horse’ was coined as a code word to numbers in the game. The language of the betting was in term of horses and not numbers. This was done to keep aside any legal action for playing an illicit game.

What you need to know about - Disney world

By Mansi gupta | Published 11/28/2005 | Travel & Adventure | Unrated
Have you ever marveled how will an evening be when you are dining with some of the interminably beloved stars (of young and the old) in the cosmos-Mickey Mouse, Alice, Uncle Scrooz, to name a few. The experience would be incredible and exceptional, so is the place- Disneyland. Walt Disney, the father of the Disneyland established the first Disneyland theme park in Anaheim, California in 1954. The park was inimitable and thronged by visitors of all age groups from toddlers who had just learnt to walk to the grey haired men and women. The charisma of the place didn’t let it rest at one place. A replica of Disneyland was made by the name of Disney World in the eastern half of the United States in Orlando, Florida in 1971. Noticing the diaspora across the world for this place, Japan kicked off its own Disneyland in 1983 and christened it as Tokyo Disneyland. Lately, in 1992 another model of Disneyland was premiered in Paris, known as Euro Disney.
