A look at the history of boxing in the Philippines
At the turn of the 20th century, Filipino martial arts were not just sports; they were techniques for survival. Three Americans, however, found a way to attract Filipino crowds by creating American-style Filipino boxers. The rest was history.
Originally Published: June 25, 2008By Don Stradley | Special to ESPN.com
JOEL NITO/AFP/Getty ImagesWhen Manny Pacquiao fights, the Philippines stand still. But PacMan isn't the first fighter to capture the island's imagination.Manny Pacquiao has thrilled boxing fans around the world, but that's not enough for him. "It's very important to me and my country to put my name into boxing history," Pacquiao said last week, referring to his upcoming challenge of WBA lightweight titlist David Diaz. But Pacquiao is already part of history. In a way, Pacquiao's achievements are the culmination of a 100-year cultural journey that encompassed martial arts, Spanish oppression and Yankee influence, all of which combined to create Filipino boxing as we know it today. Perhaps most important to the evolution of boxing on the islands was the unified vision of three men: Frank Churchill and the Tait brothers, Stewart and Eddie.
|Lethal Combination
|TV lineup up for the HBO PPV card on Saturday night (9 ET) from the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas: • Lightweights: David Diaz (34-1-1, 17 KOs) vs. Manny Pacquiao (46-3-2, 34 KOs), 12 rounds, for Diaz's title • Featherweights: Steven Luevano (35-1, 15 KOs) vs. Mario Santiago (19-1, 14 KOs), 12 rounds, for Luevano's title • Heavyweights: Tye Fields (40-1, 35 KOs) vs. Monte Barrett (33-6, 19 KOs), 10 rounds • Junior lightweights: Humberto Soto (43-6-2, 27 KOs) vs. Francisco Lorenzo (32-4, 14 KOs), 12 rounds, for a vacant interim title -- Dan Rafael
While Tait hustled the sweet science like snake oil, Churchill established the Olympic Club, described by some as a converted cock-fighting pit, complete with a thatched roof and bamboo poles, followed by the more grandiose Olympic Stadium in Manila, which opened for business in 1918. By 1921, boxing was legalized and flourishing in the Philippines. Churchill hired Stewart Tait to manage the Olympic's finances, and Eddie acted as matchmaker. Joe Waterman, another promoter stationed on the islands during the first World War, acted as a scout who would send young talents to Churchill. According to legend, the first Filipino to fight publicly wearing gloves was Churchill's driver, Leoncio Bernabe, in 1916. The teen, whose job was to pull Churchill around Manila in a rickshaw-like contraption, made his debut at the Olympic, where Wednesday nights were reserved for inexperienced locals. "These boys would storm the club on Wednesday night, begging for a chance to go on," Churchill said in 1924. "Many of them didn't have enough money to buy an outfit of ring togs, so we always kept a supply of trunks, shoes, etc., available for them. Lots of 'em wouldn't use shoes. They were accustomed to going barefoot and shoes cramped their style." From this wave of eager beginners emerged such stars as Speedy Dado, the Flores brothers Francisco, Elino, Macario and Ireneo, Pete Sarmiento and the almost mythical Pancho Villa. The American press of the day was fascinated by Filipino fighters, depicting them as exotic little warriors hell-bent on pleasing the audience. In fact, the island audience was just as fascinating as the fighters were, as California writer Jim Brann chronicled in a 1924 report from the Olympic Club:
[+] Enlarge
Topical Press Agency/Getty ImagesPancho Villa was one of the boys eager to join the Olympic Boxing Club.
Twice during the early stages of the fight, fans clinging to rafters became so excited that they lost their grip and tumbled directly into the ring, delaying the fight momentarily. But it was only for a moment, for they were instantly thrust out, without even pause to see if they were injured.

Major developers are transforming student housing
Send this to a friend
- Staff Baltimore Business Journal
Add student housing to the list of things you wish would have been this nice when you were younger. Major developers are planning to build resort-style student apartments at college campuses across the country, the Wall Street Journal reported.
Toll Bros. Inc. of Philadelpha, for instance, has bought land near the University of Maryland's College Park campus for a new student housing project.
Gone are the stained walls and disgusting brown carpeting that students have long accepted. Instead, developers are drawing up luxury apartment projects with amenities such as swimming pools, tanning beds and ice-skating rinks. These projects are almost enough enough to make you want to go back to college.

Hauntingly Painful Melodies,
This review is from: In Loving Memory Of America (Audio CD)
I accidentally stumbled across Gilad Atzmon's live performance of In Loving Memory when I went out for an evening of Jazz at the Wesley Church in Oxford. I had no idea who Atzmon was but had read a good review in the Guardian and thought I'd give it a go; afterall, standard, professionally delivered modern Jazz is always a treat.
Arriving just as Atzmon's string quartet was playing an interlude, when Atzmon lifted his Soprano sax, I was literally blown away. I had never heard anything like his composition or his playing before. And as a Jazz fan both live and recorded, of 30 years, I've heard some sounds. Atzmon is incomparable, he is an artist actually living every moment of his notes as he plays them, sculpting and conducting his compositions on stage as we listen. And his melodies are seductive, they seem almost familiar and safe until he lulls you into a melody that twists sad, then bitter and then tragic. The man has felt some pain in his life and he doesn't mind sharing. The refrain of musick had me close to tears and stayed in my ears for days after wards. His politics and his anger come through in his playing but are transformed by his technical virtuosity into an articulate sadness and disappointment with, well, with humanity. There is an uplift in moods, as if Charlie Parker had been born and raised in the Middle East; but ultimately it is the sadness of his compositions and his playing that reach the level of a profound aesthetic and emotionally devastating statement.
Abbey Lincoln once said that before therapy there was Jazz.
Gilad Atzmon proves her point.
Go get some therapy, we can all use it!

Priceline, Orbitz profits top estimates on travel demand
(Reuters) - Online travel agencies Priceline.com (PCLN.O) and Orbitz Worldwide Inc (OWW.N) posted higher-than-expected quarterly profits on Thursday, pointing to solid demand for travel.
Rising reservations for rental cars and hotels bolstered Priceline, which has the highest market capitalization among online travel agencies, while Orbitz benefited from an increase in bookings of higher-margin hotel and vacation packages.
"The travel space is doing well, pretty much across the board," said Edward Woo, a research analyst with Ascendiant Capital Markets. "People are traveling, spending money and these companies are benefiting."
Shares of Orbitz jumped more than 36 percent to a new year's high of $12.62. Priceline, which reported results after markets closed, gained more than 5 percent to $984.50 in extended trading.
The online travel industry has rebounded after a depressed few years, as cash conscious buyers seek out bargains and the U.S. economy has stabilized. But the online travel segment has shown signs of becoming more competitive.
Two weeks ago, Expedia Inc (EXPE.O) posted profit that fell short of estimates because of competition and poor performance with its Hotwire.com discount site.
But Woo said the Expedia results likely reflected company-specific issues. "It's likely that the travel market is healthy for most players right now ... and Priceline has tremendous momentum," Woo added.
Both Orbitz and Priceline are expected to ride that momentum into the rest of the year.
Orbitz raised its 2013 revenue view and said strength in its hotel business was continuing into the current quarter [ID:nL1N0G90I6].
"There's still so much opportunity in this market" as consumers increasingly book travel on mobile devices, said Orbitz Chief Executive Barney Harford in an interview. "We continue to invest very aggressively in this area to take advantage of this transformational shift."
Priceline said profit for the current third quarter could exceed analysts' estimates, and forecast $15.30 to $16.30 a share for the period. Analysts are expecting $15.86 a share.
Priceline owes much of its success to international bookings on its Booking.com travel site, which has a relatively high concentration in Europe. It is now investing in TV advertising in the United States to increase awareness of Booking.com, its biggest brand. It also recently acquired meta-search site operator Kayak Software to increase traffic.
"The advertising campaign is having a positive effect on the growth that Booking.com is experiencing in the United States," Priceline Chief Executive Jeffery Boyd said in an interview.
"The most differentiated feature about this market is how highly competitive it is."
Priceline has boosted earnings and revenue for the past five years, outperforming Expedia and Orbitz. Its shares have gained 51 percent this year, and on Thursday closed at $933.75 on Nasdaq. Some analysts speculate that the shares will cross $1,000 soon, which would be a first for an Standard & Poor's 500 stock.
Even at its current level, Priceline's stock is still shy of its all-time high. Adjusted for a 1-for-6 reverse split 10 years ago, the price reached $990 in April 1999 before falling to a low of around $6 in October 2002.
"Just because the stock price is absolutely higher than what we see from most other stocks in the market, it doesn't mean that the stock is more expensive," said Scott Kessler, an analyst with S&P Capital IQ. He said Priceline is trading at roughly 25 to 30 times his firm's estimate for 2013 earnings.
Boyd, Priceline's CEO, said stock splits have been considered by the company's board from time to time but haven't been seen as a move that would bring major shareholder benefit.
"That's not to say we would never do one," Boyd said.
Net income at Priceline was $437.4 million, or $8.39 a diluted share, in the second quarter, up from $352.3 million, or $6.88 a share, a year earlier.
Adjusted for one-time items, profit was $9.70 a share, more than the $9.36 average estimate by analysts polled by Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
Gross bookings, or the value of travel services customers bought, rose 38 percent to $10.1 billion in the second quarter.
Quarterly revenue at Priceline grew about 27 percent to $1.68 billion. Hotel room nights booked increased 38 percent, while rental car days booked rose 46 percent.

Louis Vuitton climbs Himalayas, brings back fur
It was a decadent line-up featuring six different pelts

Could it be the recent death of Maurice Herzog, the first man to scale the 8,000-metre Annapurna peak, that inspired Louis Vuitton to climb the Himalayas for his winter menswear outing?
Or perhaps just a love of exotic, far-flung destinations for the house most famous for its travel bags?
Whatever the reason, it worked — with designer Kim Jones turning out an effortless, luxury collection for autumn-winter 2013 in Paris.
He came down to ground level, bringing with him with lashings of fur and the Asian region's snow leopard as a motif. This accompanied the house's bread-and-butter sharp suits in a muted palette underneath the wintry outerwear.
But it was the snow leopard who stole the show — whether in needle punched jacquard on a light double-breasted coat, or in collars, neckties and pocket squares, and even in one show-stopping laser cut mink coat — the sky-high feline kept popping up.
Furs made a comeback; the programme notes listed some six different pelts: astrakhan, sheepskin, shearling, shaved beaver, fox used on blousons, overcoats and parka trimmings — and as lining.
Louis Vuitton shows are often exhaustive.
The final part included sumptuous prints in silk and cashmere on tuxedos and nightgowns thanks to a collaboration with Turner Prize nominees, the Chapman Brothers, who fused baroque floral print with Himalayan traditional arts.
It was a decadent line-up, with a little for every taste.

Hartland Plaza development adding retail, parking structure
Send this to a friend
- Mary Alice Kaspar
- Austin Business Journal Staff
A project that's the western gateway to downtown Austin is getting new retail and parking space, opening up room for more development.
Austin-based Sage Land Co. has started construction on a $4.2 million, 340-space parking garage with 13,000 square feet ground-floor retail space just west of Hartland Plaza. The land is the site of a former parking lot just west of MoPac Expressway between Fifth and Sixth streets.
Once complete, the project will open up for development another prime parcel located just south of Hartland Plaza and across Fifth Street, now used for parking.
Construction of the garage is expected to be finished in February.
The changes are part of a development plan that's been in the works for more than 20 years, known as the Hartland Plaza planned unit development. That plan originated in the 1980s and was updated in the early 1990s. It covers both sides of West Fifth Street east of MoPac.
"There were plans for an office building there [west of Hartland Plaza] and a below-ground parking garage. Then along came the bad times, and it never got done," says Bill Burrow, president of Sage Land. "We want to have all of our parking between Fifth and Sixth, and it will also be covered. And then we'll be independent from the land across Fifth [Street]."
In addition to the existing 167,000-square-foot Hartland Plaza, the site plan allows for another 75,000 square feet across Fifth Street to the south.
Burrow says Sage Land will make a decision on the parcel south of Hartland Plaza, which is connected by a bridge that extends over Fifth Street, once the new garage and retail space are completed. The occupancy rate of Hartland Plaza is in the mid-90s.

Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.
Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.
Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.
This group is not intended to compete with other groups on topics they cover but to "fill in the cracks." Whenever a discussion dwells at length on a topic for which there's an existing group, we urge you to provide members a link to that group to continue along their tangent.
A comment is a shout-out, which will get lost in a few days, because the comment wall is just a random stack.
Please start a discussion to share stories, photos, and videos. Replies will pop up in your "latest activity" and a conversation can develop from the feelings and thoughts you contributed. Groups are built on discussions.

I love the item about DNA, Ian. But the real fundies among them would die first than admit it.
I always looked at the Noah's Ark story as a blow-up of a local thing. Bronze Age farmers didn't travel very far - so if your small valley flooded and you escaped with the family, the goats and a few chickens on a raft...
Looks like a good book, SST. As far as I understand things the Hebrews were nomadic herders who wandered as far as Egypt in times of drought simply because of the Nile river. They must have reached a cultural high point at some time though. The temple is proof of that. Also saw a Nat Geo documentary some years ago that said, r.e. DNA, Israelis and Palestinians are basically the same people.
@Secular School Teacher: I MUST get my paws on that book! I have read in several different sources that the Israelites were never enslaved by the Egyptians, and that the Exodus never happened. The stories of the plagues are just ridiculous...almost as dumb as Noah's Ark (How did 8 people feed and clean up after all those animals? I asked that question in Sunday school when I was about 6 or 7, and got a hell of a tongue-lashing from the teacher, but she couldn't give me a reasonable answer.)
As far back as the 19th century there were speculations that the whole story was a myth, or propaganda, and that Jericho hadn't even been established at the time that "Joshua (suposedly) fit de battle."
I have also read that the "City" of Nazareth didn't exist until late in the 1st Century, or early in the 2nd Century CE. Whoever wrote Matthew (I think it was that book) was trying to fit his story to "prophecies" in the OT, and one of them hinted that a hero or messiah would be a "Nazarite," which was some sort of religious sect, not a citizen from a town in Galilee.
The writers of those novelettes were as ignorant as the people who still believe those stories today. Flat-Earthers.
Thanks for posting that story SST. Interesting! :)

Patricia, that's wonderful that your neighbors look after you.
I'm opposite of you on temperature. I can stand the heat more than the cold. That's why I'm trying to find a way to move south.
Patricia, that's interesting that you got in the paper without knowing it, and not being asked. From that distance they probably thought no one could recognize you, but I'll bet a lot of people you know would.
A few years ago, on a slow-news-day sunday, a newspaper photographer caught me riding my recumbent tricycle, but he asked me if he could publish it. I didn't notice him, and he ran after me to ask me. Said he had a hard time catching me even though I was going uphill and not pumping hard. : )
Mindy, love that image about the truth being worth it.
Patricia, that is so cool that it is an actual picture of you! I agree with Chris, beautiful surroundings. :)

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Three former dairy workers with Idaho's largest dairy operation have been charged with misdemeanor animal cruelty after undercover video shot by an animal rights group showed workers stomping, dragging and beating cows inside a milking barn.
The video was shot using a hidden camera by a member of Mercy for Animals who got a job at Bettencourt Dairies' Dry Creek Dairy in Hansen for a few weeks this summer.
It shows workers at the dairy beating cows with a pink cane as the animals slipped and slid on the wet concrete floor; workers kicking and stomping cows that have fallen between the metal bars in the milking stalls; and a cow being dragged out of the barn by a chain around her neck as she lies on the concrete floor.
Twin Falls County Prosecutor Grant Loebs said he filed misdemeanor animal cruelty charges against Jesus Garza, Jose Acensio and Javier Victor Rojas Loayza in late August after an investigation that was prompted by the video. If convicted, the men face fines of up to $5,000 each and six months of jail time on a first offense.
Luis Bettencourt, the owner of the dairy, said that when the Idaho Department of Agriculture told him about the video and allegations, he was "sick about it." Bettencourt's dairy operation is the largest in Idaho, with 13 facilities and about 60,000 milk cows.
"We don't tolerate animal abuse. That's a big issue for us," Bettencourt said. "Animal care is a No. 1 issue in our facilities."
Bettencourt said he fired the five workers seen in the video the day after he viewed the footage. He's since installed video cameras throughout his facilities and hired an additional supervisor.
"And we also showed the video to all the rest of the employees in our dairies, all 500 employees, and they had to sign a deal that said they understand that there's zero tolerance for animal abuse in our dairies," he said. "We've been in business 30 years, and we've never had this happen before. We're all devastated here."
Nathan Runkle, the executive director of Mercy for Animals, hopes the video will convince Kraft Foods, Burger King and other companies to stop using products made from milk from the Idaho company and send a "clear message to the industry that animal abuse will not be tolerated."

Sri Lanka considering to remove child care from the duty list of migrant housemaids
Sun, Jan 20, 2013, 09:42 pm SL Time, ColomboPage News Desk, Sri Lanka.
Jan 20, Colombo: The government of Sri Lanka is studying the possibilities of excluding childcare from the duty list of Sri Lankan housemaids employed overseas.
Sri Lanka's Ministry of Foreign Employment Promotion is considering to make the employment agencies to sign agreements to guarantee that the Sri Lankan housemaids will not be employed for caring of children.
The Ministry will also introduce new legislations to raise the minimum age for all housemaids migrating abroad for employment to 25, says Amal Senadhilankara, Chairman of the Foreign Employment Bureau.
Sri Lankan organizations agitate demanding suspension of deploying Sri Lankan women as housemaids abroad especially following the beheading of Sri Lankan housemaid Rizana Nafeek by Saudi Arabia for charges of killing a baby she was looking after.
The Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment (SLBFE) however, said there were no plans yet to suspend Sri Lankan women from going to Saudi Arabia as housemaids, despite pressure from women's rights groups.
The Ministry says it is promoting the employment of skilled workers to avoid situations similar to Nafeek's case and is in the process of identifying the weak and neglected areas pertaining to unskilled domestic workers and strengthening their skills.
Remittances from migrant workers are a major contribution to the country's economy and the majority of the expatriate employees are housemaids in Middle Eastern countries.

Radical Islamic Cleric Calls To Destroy The Sphinx, Other Great Pyramids In Egypt

By IBTIMES STAFF REPORTER | November 14, 2012 5:19 AM EST
Egyptian authorities have stepped up security measures to protect the Sphinx and the other great pyramids of Giza after a radical jihadist leader broadcasted on an Egyptian TV station that he hoped to destroy the marvels.
The Jerusalem Post reports that Murgan Salem al-Gohary, a prominent Salafist Muslim with links to the Taliban, told the privately-owned Dream TV2 network that the pyramids are idolatrous and harmful to Islam.
"The idols and statutes that fill Egypt must be destroyed," al-Gohary said. "Muslims are tasked with applying the teachings of Islam and removing these idols, just like we did in Afghanistan when we smashed the Buddha statues."
In 2001, the Taliban, along with al-Gohary's assistance, blew up a number of large Buddha depictions and smashed other art in Afghanistan to erase memories of the country's Buddhist history.
Al-Gohary had traveled to Afghanistan after serving two prison sentences in Egypt during Hosni Mubarek's presidency. After destroying the statues and being injured by a U.S. air strike in Afghanistan, al-Gohary ventured to Syria, where he was arrested and extradited back to Egypt.
While Egyptian media spoke to administration officials who guaranteed the safety of the structures and said the government had taken all the necessary precautions, Egyptian tourism officials feel not enough has been done. Egypt's Coalition to Support Tourism said the threats alone would maim the country's travel industry. The coalition threatened lawsuit against Mohamed Morsi and Egypt's tourism minister if further steps were not taken to protect the pyramids.
The Sphinx, the world's largest monolith statue, has become a target of Salafi and Islamist threats in recent time, reports the Jerusalem Post.
Last week in Tahrir Square, according to U.K.'s Independent, Salafis gathered to call for Sharia Law in Egypt. The Salafist Party is the second most powerful in the country behind the Muslim Brotherhood.
