Download the Water for life - protecting River Red Gums video
River Red Gum forests in Victoria include the largest Red Gum forest anywhere in the world, the Barmah Forest, near Echuca. These forests have evolved for hundreds of thousands of years with regular flooding. River Red Gum forests in Victoria and right across the Murray River are under a lot of threat.
Logging of old Red Gum trees reduces the amount of hollows available for threatened species, and cattle grazing eats plants before they have a time to grow into plants which can be available for other animals to eat. And also for the Aboriginal people that used to traditionally hunt, fish and collect plants within the forests, this has a major impact on their culture which goes back 40 000 years.
The survival of these forests is dependent on the availability of water, without water these forest don't have a future. Water is the key to the health of these wetland forests. What we have at the moment is a prolonged drought compounded by climate change, but we also have a lot of water been taken out of the river, historically for irrigation, and if we're going to get the rivers back to health and these Red Gum forests back to health, we need to address this misuse of water and put more water back into the environment and more water back into these wetlands and into these beautiful forests.
Climate change will impact on the amount of rainfall and therefore the amount of water that is available for these wetlands. We will need new National Parks to make sure that threatened species can move between forests and along the river, but climate change is a great unknown when it comes to the future of these forests and their threatened species.
There are many threatened species within River Red Gum forests. The Barmah Forest is the only breeding site in Victoria for the Superb Parrot. Other species such as the Squirrel Glider, the Murray Cod and the Carpet Python are all listed threatened and live in these River Red Gum forests. Without healthy River Red Gum forests and wetlands these species simply won't survive.
The museum is aware that it's important to conserve water and also for us to raise awareness of this issue.
Also, the Royal Exhibition Building next to the museum, has been landscaped and underwater tanks have been installed in order to recycle rainwater. These are just two of the ways the museum is working to both conserve water and raise awareness. Of course it's up to everyone out there to get on board too!
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.

Excellent Travel Trailer
By Rick Williams(Owner), Apr. 27, 2011I have owned 3 travel trailers and find the X-Lite 26 BHS to be the best built and with more features than the rest. The quality is evident in the materials used in all parts of construction.

I am not sure if I like this one yet. I will have to see it in action. I feel that, on the manequin, it kind of looks like a cheap pinstripe suit.
Nike continues to exploit the followers of the national team with these shameless changes to the jersey at least twice a year. I soooo wish we had an Addidas kit like the MLS clubs and most of the European nations rather than this garbage.

A huge snowstorm is hammering the east coast of the US, knocking out power to more than half a million people, shutting down roads and forcing people to stay home. As much as a meter of snow could fall before it ends.
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has accepted a petition from environmentalists to protect the Arctic against climate change. At the same time, latest figures show ice in the Arctic sea continues to melt.
A new storm has plowed into the eastern US. The current bout of snow, wind and ice has triggered widespread road accidents and flight cancellations and left hundreds of thousands of people without power.
A powerful winter storm pummeling the northeastern US has turned deadly, according to local authorities. Temperatures are expected to drop to below -10F (-23C) in some areas overnight.
Nick Nuttall, spokesperson for the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, tells DW how religious groups are increasingly fighting climate change and how that might have a bigger impact than you'd think.

Mara Explorer, built on a thickly forested river in the middle of the Maasai Mara Reserve, offers the ultimate wilderness retreat. Here you can watch elephants or giraffes drinking from the privacy of your verandah - or your own outdoor bathtub! In the heart of the reserve, Explorer enjoys prime views of the spectacular wildebeest migration between June and September, and rewarding daily game viewing for the remainder of the year.
Client Feedback
The camps we stayed in were all nice but kudos to Oliver's whose location allowed us to be first in and last out of the areas deep within the Tarangire. We also enjoyed the other people at the camp especially Justin & Jacky the managers. We loved being at the fire pit for wine & sharing every evening.
Mara Explorers was an unbelievable camp also – same fire pit experiences and although we were doing shared drives the camp was very empty (5 people besides us). The manager, George knew we had been in Tanzania for a week so put the other first timers in one truck and gave us our own driver!Read More
- Suzy & Ewald Wiberg
We were also thrilled with our decision to upgrade our accommodations to Mara Explorer. We requested Tent 4, which was incredibly located at the river bend where the hippos hung out and the baboons and mongoose came to play in the afternoon. I can't say enough about this wonderful camp. The service, the food, the beautifully appointed tent and the overall hospitality surpassed all expectations. This was truly a highlight of our trip.
The Norfolk Hotel was great. I loved it. I felt very much at home there. They upgraded us on both stays. We enjoyed the restaurants, p articularly the atmospheric Delamere Terrace. I was glad you convinced us to stay in Nairobi.Read More

FPL contractor trapped after fall
Updated On: Nov 21 2012 12:43:51 PM EST
A contractor performing maintenance work at a Florida Power & Light facility was taken by helicopter to a hospital early Wednesday morning after a fall that left him trapped, WPBF 25 News reported.
Palm Beach County Fire-Rescue crews arrived at the plant near State Road 80 in Loxahatchee about 3 a.m.
Officials said the contract worker was doing routine maintenance work inside the plant when he fell about 5-10 feet and got trapped between piping.
First responders said it took about an hour to rescue the man, whose name and condition were not immediately available. But WPBF 25 News' Chris McGrath reported the man was alert and talking while he was being rescued.
An FPL spokesperson said an internal investigation is under way to determine how the accident happened.

After 15 years in corporate America, Denise Wolfgang decided it was time for a change.
In 2010, Rick Colosimo had a problem. The recession had cut his spa business to a fraction of what it had been a few years previously.
Getting customers to spend substantial amounts of money for improved pool electronics can be a tough sell.
Pools are designed to keep water in, of course — but with vinyl-liner vessels, a central need for builders and service techs is keeping water out.
When it comes to spa service calls, one of the most common is a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) that won't stop tripping
Electrical issues aside, many of the most common spa troubles stem from failures to properly maintain the water's chemistry.
A safety vacuum release system (SVRS) is a system or a device that disables a pool pump's suction ability so that a body or object trapped against the suction outlet is freed.
Get a group of pool servicepeople together in a room, and the subject of salt chlorination will come up sooner or later
Just because salt chlorination is largely an automated process doesn't mean it is maintenance-free.
In today's economic environment, it's easy to focus on purchasing the lowest-priced item available.

Nashua school members' letter prompts an apology
According to city attorney Stephen Bennett, the letter, which was written by David Murotake and signed by Kim Muise, William Mosher, Sandra Ziehm, Elizabeth Van Twuyver, Dotty Oden and former board member Jack Kelley, "violated the spirit of the right to know law."
Although the letter was circulated through email and members never met to discuss it, the six members represent a quorum of the board. Other board members were not given the chance to review the letter.
Bennet warned board members that the letter also may have violated their own bylaws which require any board actions to be taken in public. He also said the state could order the board to refrain from any similar actions in the future.

The challenge of providing retirement security to all citizens is the broader issue behind the debate over what level of public sector pension benefits are both equitable and financially sustainable.

Review of Oi Oi Oi! Second Edition
Review of Oi Oi Oi! Second Edition
By A. Maynard
Oi Oi Oi! was launched earlier this year, an all-Australian anthology comics magazine. What makes the second edition distinctive is that contains strips from female creators only.
The magazine begins with a wordless strip from Madeleine Karutz, and combines the beautiful and the…
A neat review of Oi Oi Oi second edition, which (wooo!) Seven has started serialising in! Check out the rest of the blog, too, they do good work.
Hah, Seven #5 – a short glimpse into my fear and revulsion at the thought of the birthing process.
This turned out super cute (*・艸・)
Did this sketch a while back before the writers started sailing the Fetch Ship, I was really liking the way these two interacted and that Dutch was an interesting character not attached romantically to a male lead. I'm still kind of hopeful this ship will stall (I love both, but it was just so nice to have a non-romantically available female lead character, you know?) but if it doesn't I'll just sigh and go back to writing my own BAMF ladies, I guess.
I just wish a little they'd have super cool friendship adventures like this! Save the bread and balogna!
Yay done with the colours for Clo!
I had scripted Dopplerganger out as 12 pages but with the panel work I want to do it might turn out more, gah! Means I need to work out thumbs before I submit!
REALLY happy with how these came out, I was using the wrong paper for it so didn't do the push pattern I did for Snare with the background but I think it still came out really well! Love Eki's colours, she's all no nonsense and solid defence.
Eki is one of the characters for Dopplerganger, what I think is a mini but might turn out longer with the panel structure I have in mind. I want to submit it to Spike's New World anthology, but if it doesn't make it I'll print myself!
OH MY GOSH IT ARRIVED! Internal screaming mode set to max, what an awesome thing to wake up to on a beautiful Sunday morning!
Practice! I want to have both characters in the mini I'm planning next to be WOC so trying to make sure I have practice, even if it will be in black and white.
Bosslady. Bought myself a new work skirt so felt the need to draw the one I'd really love but will probably never find!
A little bit hallowe'enie? She looks like a super cool person to know, all tousled and taking no shit.

Amir Iqbal Khan (born 8 December 1986) is an English professional boxer. He is a former two time world champion by winning WBA, WBA (Super) and IBF Light Welterweight titles.[1]
Amir Khan is the youngest British Olympic boxing medalist, winning silver at the 2004 Athens Olympics at the age of 17. He is also one of the youngest British world champions ever, winning the WBA Light Welterweight title at age 22, the first-ever British Pakistani boxing major world champion.

Early life
Khan was born and raised in Bolton, England. He was born to a Rajput (janjua) family with roots in Punjab.[2][3] He was educated at Smithills School in Bolton,[4] and Bolton Community College. Khan is a Muslim,[5] and a member of the Naqshbandi sufi spiritual order,[6] along with being an active supporter of the Muslim Writers Awards.[7]
Khan has two sisters and one brother, Haroon "Harry" Khan, an undefeated Professional boxer.[8] He is the first cousin of English cricketer Sajid Mahmood, related through a paternal grandfather, Lal Khan, who moved to England after being discharged from the Pakistan Army [9]
Amateur career
Khan began to box competitively at the age of 11, with early honours including three English school titles, three junior ABA titles, and gold at the 2003 Junior Olympics.[10] In early 2004 he won a gold medal at the European Student Championships in Lithuania, and in South Korea several months later he won world junior lightweight title after fighting five times in seven days. One of his notable early amateur fights was against Victor Ortíz, whom he defeated in a second round stoppage. Overall, he compiled an amateur record of 101-9.
2004 Olympic Games
Khan qualified for the 2004 Summer Olympics by finishing in first place at the 1st AIBA European 2004 Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Plovdiv, Bulgaria. He was Britain's sole representative in boxing at the Athens Games, winning a silver medal at the age of 17 in the lightweight boxing category. He was Britain's youngest Olympic boxer since Colin Jones in 1976. He lost in the final to Mario Kindelan, the Cuban who had also beaten him several months earlier in the pre-Olympic match-ups in Greece. In 2005 he avenged the two losses by beating the 34-year-old Kindelan in his last amateur fight.
- 2003 – Won a gold medal at the AAU Junior Olympic Games.
- 2004 – Won a gold medal at the European Student Championships and the World Junior Championships.
- 2004 – Won the Strandja Cup to qualify for the Olympics in Athens
- 2004 – Won an amateur match against Victor Ortíz, who was stopped in the second round.
- 2004 – Won a silver medal at the Olympics, beating Marios Kaperonis, Dimitar Stilianov, Jong Sub Baik and Serik Yeleuov. He lost to Mario Kindelan in the final.
- 2005 – Beat Craig Watson on points in the ABA Championships.
- 2005 – Won the last match of his amateur career beating Mario Kindelan 19–13 at the Reebok Stadium.
Professional career
On 2 February 2008, Khan was scheduled to fight Martin Kristjansen, but illness forced the Dane to withdraw and instead Khan beat Australian Gary St Clair in a contest for the Commonwealth lightweight title at the ExCel Arena in London. This was his first fight to last all 12 rounds and was won via a unanimous 120–108 scoring from all three ringside judges.
On 5 April 2008, Khan beat Kristjansen in the seventh round of a WBO lightweight Title Eliminator. Before the contest, the fighters had been ranked third and fourth respectively by the WBO. After Khan's victory, he was ranked second, behind only Joel Casamayor.
Following the fight, Khan split from his trainer Oliver Harrison, the trainer for all of his previous 17 professional contests. The break-up was blamed on Harrison's concerns that Khan's public engagements were interfering with his fight preparations.[11] Khan's spokesman told reporters there was "nothing personal" between Khan and Harrison.[12] Dean Powell, who has trained former world champions Duke McKenzie and Lloyd Honeyghan, worked with Khan until a decision on a permanent trainer was made. In the same month, Khan had a training session in Las Vegas with Roger Mayweather, trainer and uncle of Floyd Mayweather, Jr.[11]
Khan fought on 21 June 2008, at the National Indoor Arena in Birmingham against Irishman Michael Gomez. Gomez, a super featherweight champion who was reaching the end of his career and had lost the last one of his six fights, was described as a "backward step" in Khan's quest for a world title.[13] Khan stated "I think I'm above this level now" and made it clear that he expected a fast and explosive finish to the fight knocking down Gomez two times in the fight and a great finish. However, after the fight, Khan said he felt he had moved up a level by "fighting a good fighters like Gomez".[14] Khan received criticism for being knocked down in the second round, but proved his resilience by coming back stronger after this. Former boxing champion Barry McGuigan seemed unimpressed after the fight and said Khan needed at least two more fights before he should consider a world title bout. Many journalists[who?] echoed McGuigan's opinion of Khan's needs to work on his defence.
A month after the Gomez fight, it was announced that Jorge Rubio would become Khan's new trainer. Rubio was chosen because Khan thought that he had very good chemistry with the Cuban trainer. Khan said, "Rubio was showing me all these new training techniques, and I felt so comfortable because it suited my style. I knew I had the hand speed and the footwork to do it and I knew it was going to make me a much better fighter". Many boxing experts thought that Rubio needed to concentrate on improving Khan's defence, especially in keeping a high guard, and Khan's father agreed that he was showing great defensive skills during his training.
In early August, the lightweight Breidis Prescott was chosen by Rubio as Khan's next opponent. Rubio had trained a fighter who had narrowly lost to Prescott before and thought that Khan would be able to handle the bigger Prescott, who had a prolific knock-out record of 17 KOs in 19 contests. On 6 September 2008, Khan was a huge favourite and was hoping to win a world title by the end of the year. Prescott came out fast in the fight and landed some good shots; a stiff jab jerked Khan's head back and foreshadowed what was to come. Prescott landed a left hook that jabbed Khan's temple; dizzying his senses. Instead of holding, Khan tried to punch back, but instead was punched on the head by a left hook, right hook combo, sending him crashing to the canvas. He managed to get to his feet, but was wobbling like bambi on ice. Prescott ended it for good with another left that put Khan down again. This time, he was unable to get up. It was officially over in 55 seconds.The fight was at the Manchester Evening News Arena on Khan's Sky Box Office debut.[15]
Following his defeat to Prescott, Frank Warren sacked Khan's trainer Jorge Rubio and replaced him with Freddie Roach. Khan began training with Roach in the United States, where he sparred with then WBC lightweight champion and pound-for-pound champion Manny Pacquiao, who is also being trained by Roach. On 6 December 2008, Khan recorded a comeback win against Oisin Fagan in a second-round stoppage. With victory, Khan won the vacant WBA International lightweight title. Khan knocked Fagan down twice in the first round and Fagan's corner threw in the towel in the second, after being knocked down again.
Khan vs. Barrera
In early 2009, it was announced that Khan would fight former seven-time and three-weight world champion Marco Antonio Barrera on 14 March, at the Manchester Evening News Arena.[16] Frank Warren promoted Khan's fight against the veteran Barrera, perhaps Khan's highest-profile opponent to date. Barrera was ranked No. 1 and Khan No. 5 in the WBO world lightweight rankings. Previous IBF and WBO lightweight title holder Nate Campbell was stripped of the belts after moving up to the light welterweight division and Khan's promoter Frank Warren and Barrera's promoter Don King lobbied the WBO to elevate the Khan-Barrera fight to a world lightweight title eliminator.[17] However, the world-title status was instead given to the fight between Juan Manuel Márquez and Juan Diaz, ranked No. 2 and No. 3 respectively by the WBO.[18]
On 14 March 2009, at the MEN Arena in Manchester, England, Khan defeated Barrera, by a technical decision. The fight was stopped towards the end of the fifth round due to Barrera suffering a cut in the first round, which resulted from a clash of heads. With Barrera deemed in no position to fight on by the ringside doctor, the fight then went to the scorecards where Khan was ahead on all three (50–44, 50–45, 50–45). With victory, Khan defended his WBA International lightweight title and also won the vacant WBO Inter-Continental lightweight title.
Frank Warren was sufficiently impressed with Khan's performance that he vowed to land a world title fight for him before the end of the year.
There was a lot on his shoulders, but I always felt he could rise to the big occasion. I'd like to see him get a belt round his waist by the end of this year.[19]
Khan also commented on the fight, saying:
I felt so completely easy, catching him with jabs. I felt like I was on a better level than him. The jabbing and patience – I felt so strong. You could see the difference. I had to take some shots in that match. I made some mistakes in the past and I'm not going to make them again.[19]
Light Welterweight
Khan vs. Kotelnik, Salita
On 18 July 2009, Khan moved up to the light welterweight division to fight Andreas Kotelnik at the MEN Arena in Manchester for the WBA light welterweight title. Khan won by a unanimous decision, 120–108, 118–111, 118–111, and became the third-youngest Brit to win a world title, at the age of 22.[20]
On 6 October 2009, Frank Warren confirmed that Khan would defend his WBA light welterweight title against undefeated Ukrainian American boxer Dmitry Salita, the mandatory challenger, on 5 December, at the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle upon Tyne, England.[21] Due to Khan being a practising Muslim and Salita being an Orthodox Jew, the fight was hyped as a religious clash by the media, referring to it as a "battle of faiths" or "holy war", though Khan and Salita have both denied such claims.[22][23] On 5 December 2009, Khan defeated mandatory challenger Salita in 76 seconds, winning by TKO in the first round. Salita was knocked down three times, the first time after just 10 seconds into the fight.[24] It was the first ever loss of Salita's career.[25]
On 17 January 2010, Khan announced he had split with British promoter Frank Warren and signed a deal with Oscar De La Hoya and Golden Boy Promotions, with Khan's fights moving back to ITV.[26]
Khan vs. Malignaggi, Maidana
On 9 March 2010, Golden Boy Promotions confirmed that WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan and former light welterweight world champion Paulie Malignaggi would hold a press conference in London to announce their world title bout set for 15 May at The Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York. This was Khan's first bout in the United States of America. The fight was for the WBA light welterweight title, which Khan won in the 11th round.[27] "He (Khan) is stronger, bigger and faster. He was very busy, I couldn't keep up with him" stated Malignaggi in his post-fight interview. Immediately after the fight, Khan stated he wanted to fight Marcos Maidana next, and that he would not be leaving the light welterweight division until he had unified the various belts, suggesting that the way to do this would be for him to fight Maidana, and then go on to face the winner of a Devon Alexander vs. Timothy Bradley match.[28]
Khan successfully defended his title for the third time against WBA interim champion and mandatory challenger, Marcos Maidana who held a record of 29 wins, 27 knockouts and only 1 loss. Amir Khan was heavily criticized for having a glass chin, as he was stunned mid-way through the 10th round by a heavy right hand. Nevertheless, Khan over came heavy punishment and walked away with a unanimous decision.
Khan vs. McCloskey, Judah
Khan took on Paul McCloskey in his next fight. The 31-year-old Northern Irishman was unbeaten in 22 fights and was ranked world number 10. Khan said: "I am delighted that this fight has finally been put together following some tough negotiations. This is a matchup the British public want to see and will be a fantastic fight between two of the best light-welterweights in the country." [29]
Khan won a sixth-round technical decision after Paul McCloskey was cut by an unintentional head-butt and could not go on in the estimation of the ring doctor.[30] The heads of Khan and McCloskey collided about two minutes into the sixth round, causing a bad cut on the inside of the Irishman's left eyebrow. Another tactical few rounds followed, with Khan the main aggressor. In the decisive sixth, a five-punch combination from Khan staggered McCloskey and moments later the pair went toe-to-toe before McCloskey wheeled away and noticed blood coming from around his left eye.[31]
Khan had some trouble with the awkward and resilient southpaw, who was difficult to hit cleanly, but he was both too quick and too busy for McCloskey, winning all six rounds on all three cards.[32]
After a war of words with Judah on Twitter, Amir Khan agreed on 31 May 2011 to fight Zab Judah in attempt to unify the IBF and WBA Light Welterweight titles in Las Vegas on 23 July.[33][34] Amir Khan started the fight with a left jab. Round 1 saw a busy Amir Khan as he fought from the outside and kept Judah away with jabs and straights. All four rounds were taken by Khan. Ultimately on the fifth round Zab was taken down with a right uppercut to the body, in which at first commentators believed it was a low blow, since Judah was showing signs of agonising pain, but when it was seen from a different camera angle, it was right on the belt, leading to an 18th knockout for Amir Khan in his career so far.[35]
Khan vs. Peterson, Garcia
Lamont Peterson defeated Khan for the WBA and IBF light-welterweight titles in Washington DC on 10 December 2011 by split decision.
Khan was deducted 2 points in rounds 7 and 12 by the referee Joe Cooper for pushing. Peterson and Khan both boxed well and two judges scored it 113–112 to Peterson, with the other 115–110 to Khan (originally announced as 114–111 to Khan). It was later found that, Peterson had tested positive for peds was stripped of the IBF title. Lamont Pederson admitted to the use of steroids shortly after.
His next fight was on 14 July 2012, in Las Vegas, against the undefeated Puerto Rican-American Danny Garcia for the WBC Championship.[36] At the pre-fight press conference on 4 June, Khan and Garcia's fathers got into a heated exchange resulting in both fighters promising to knock the other out on 14 July. Khan also stated his desire to move up to the 147 lbs division if successful against Garcia, for potential bouts with high-profile boxers like Floyd Mayweather and Timothy Bradley, although Bradley has previously rejected a fight with Khan in order for a fight against Manny Pacquiao.[37]
Khan entered the Garcia fight as a heavy favorite and through the first two rounds and most of the third he seemed to be on his way to a decisive victory as Garcia was not offering much of a defense. However, the tide turned against Khan very late in the third round as Garcia was able to land a hard counterpunch off a missed right. Khan hit the canvas and after appearing to be on his way to an easy round victory suddenly had to fight to stay alive as Garcia's punch had left him wobbly. Only the bell saved Khan from a second knockdown, but Garcia kept pressing early in round four and Khan was forced to take a second standing eight count after he touched the canvas with his glove. Khan regrouped and was temporarily able to go back at Garcia, but with less than a minute left in the round Khan was dropped a third time. Referee Kenny Bayless stopped the fight despite Khan assuring him he could continue, deciding enough was enough.[38]
Khan vs. Molina
Soon after Khan joined with new trainer Virgil Hunter it was announced that he would make his comeback fight against undefeated Mexican-American, Carlos Molina (17–0, 7 KOs). The fight was aired on Showtime, on 15 December 2012, and took place in the LA Sports Arena in California.[39] Khan defeated Molina by TKO in the tenth round and won the WBC Silver Light Welterweight title.[40]
Khan vs. Diaz
Following his victory over Molina, Khan returned to the UK, for a fight against Julio Díaz on 27 April 2013 in a 143 lbs 'catch-weight' bout. Khan was able to control some of the fight and managed to survive a fourth-round knockdown from Diaz. Khan managed to hold on throughout the fight to go onto win the fight by a very close unanimous decision. The scorecards; Phil Edwards 114–113 – Steve Gray 115–113 – Terry O'Connor 115–112.
Khan vs. Collazo
Khan fought Luis Collazo on 3 May 2014 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, MGM Grand Las Vegas, Khan fighting at a measured pace knocked Collazo down 3 times en route to a dominant unanimous decision win.
Amir Khan vs. Devon Alexander
Amir Khan is set to face American Devon Alexander in his next fight on December 13 at the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino, in Las Vegas Nevada [41] The winner of this bout will be the front runner for a fight with Floyd Mayweather.

Personal life
In addition to boxing, he enjoys participation in cricket, basketball, and football where Khan supports his local Bolton Wanderers team and had previously used the club's training facilities.[43] In 2012, he was pictured on his Twitter account with Manchester United players such as Rio Ferdinand, Alex Buttner, Michael Carrick and David De Gea.,[44] despite being pictured in a United shirt, he said: 'Still a true Bolton fan all the way.'
On 29 January 2012, Khan became engaged to Pakistani-American student, Faryal Makhdoom of Staten Island, NY. A thousand friends and family were in attendance, including boxer Ricky Hatton.[45] The couple finally married on 31 May 2013 at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City. The couple then flew back to Khan's hometown of Bolton where a second celebration, a traditional Walima, took place in Manchester which included 4,000 guests.[46][47] Their first child, a daughter named Lamaisah, was born in May 23, 2014 at 4:10am [48]
Charitable and community work
Khan has past and present involvements in supporting charitable and community causes. After the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, he was among those who raised £1 million for its victims,[49] and in the following year he visited Pakistan to dispense food in a camp set up after the Kashmir earthquake.[50] He has also been involved with a campaign that promotes child safety around British railways[51] one that seeks improvements to the criminal justice system,[52] and another that encourages men to play a role in ending violence against women.[53]
Additionally, Khan is involved in various philanthropic initiatives,[54] including the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC), National Literacy Trust, and Great Ormond Street Hospital.
In December 2013, Khan hosted a fundraising dinner to support Islamic Relief's Philippines Appeal in the wake of Typhoon Haiyan, raising £83,400.
- Khan was involved in a TV programme for Channel 4, Amir Khan's Angry Young Men, which consisted of three 50-minute episodes. The programme centred around troubled angry men and aimed to use the disciplines of boxing, coupled with faith and family values, to help re-focus their lives and steer them away from trouble in the future. It was screened in August/September 2007.
- Khan was nominated for the 2011 BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award.[55]
Motoring offences and incidents
On 23 October 2007, Khan was convicted of careless driving at Bolton Crown Court and given a six-month driving ban and a £1000 fine. The conviction related to an incident that occurred on 2 March 2006 in the centre of Bolton, when Khan's car hit and broke the leg of Geoffrey Hatton, a pedestrian who was using a pelican crossing while Khan was travelling at 47 mph in a 30 mph zone and overtaking in the wrong lane.[56] He was cleared of dangerous driving but charged with the lesser offence of careless driving[57] and the pedestrian received an interim payment of £40,000.[58] Geoffrey Hatton never fully recovered from the incident and died two years afterwards from a gastrointestinal bleed with Khan passing on his sympathies.[59] Khan was also summoned to appear in court in Rochdale on 26 October 2007, accused of travelling in excess of 140 mph on the M62 motorway on 31 December 2006. He failed to appear and the case was adjourned to 2 November 2007, with the District Judge warning that he would issue an arrest warrant if the accused did not appear by then. He was also charged with not producing his driving licence and insurance certificate.[60] On 7 January 2008 Khan was fined £1000 and banned for 42 days for the speeding offence.[61]
On 12 July 2009, Khan was once again involved in a motoring incident, this time a collision with a young cyclist. However, no action was taken against Khan after police concluded that he was not to blame for the incident in Moor Lane following interviews with a number of witnesses.[62]
- Oliver Harrison (July 2005 – April 2008)[63]
- Jorge Rubio (July 2008 – September 2008)[64]
- Freddie Roach (October 2008 – September 2012)[65]
- Virgil Hunter (September 2012 – present)[65]
He was a 2005 nominee for the Laureus World Sports Award for Breakthrough of the Year. He was a nominee for the 2011 BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award after defeating Zab Judah.

Replicating Guitar Reality
I would like, if I may, to take you… on a strange journey. Actually on a weird, wild, perhaps futuristic guitar trip. What we're dealing with here is an electric guitar that the designer reports has all the pros of electric sound with none of the downsides of a non-analog. Pickups and frets with digital imputs which work on a MIDI-signal that's adaptable to replicate any guitar and amp setup. And what's weird about that? No strings – but your fingers wont believe it.

Represented by Alana Herron and the Twisted Agency
Scottish experienced model who has a passion for creativity and enjoys pushing myself further. Over four years of experience. I can pose with or without direction and work to increase my flexibility and strength to pull off some dynamic poses. I really enjoy being given challenges and interesting concepts to work with. I am quite versatile, extremely reliable, never no show, have a professional attitude, and I'm well organised. I have experience as a studio tuition model on a one to one basis and in larger groups as well as some PR experience.
A few things about me:
Experienced corset wearer having 18/20 inch corsetted waist
I do pole dancing and yoga as a hobby so I'm rather bendy!
Experience in artistic bondage including inverted and single point rope suspensions (Please note I work with trained riggers and only shoot artistic rope bondage rather than anything else).
I can do my own make up/hair to a good standard if needed but happy to work with MUA's.
I own a rather large collection of authentic quality latex/PVC/gothic/burlesque/steel boned corsets/retro/underwear and shoes including custom made items from top designers that cost a couple hundred of pounds each. I now have blonde and brunette (with honey blonde streaks) wigs.
I have a tattoo on my lower back of three roses. I have no implants and my skin is very pale.
My current hair is shoulder length black but I often wear hair extensions. My stats are 35(30FF)-24-36 (37.5 full hips).
Happy to travel folks so drop me a message if you would like to work with me.
Sorry guys but this is a job for myself so not interested in tfp assignments. Open to trade for good quality clothes (especially latex ) or shoes though.
rates are (including styling, hair and make up and outfits)
Half day £140
Full day £230
Discounts available if you are just looking to shoot fashion.
Please note I do shoot classy/high end erotic/sensual/fetish nudes but I not shoot adult levels or open leg (no pink on show), thank you.
Happy to work in studios, homes or on location. If non studio work is required then I will ask for:
several references from models or clients
A smoke free working environment. I'm a non smoker
A note on pubic hair: It varies depending on my mood if you have a particular preference either way feel free to contact me.
Current mood: Shaved
I charge a 30% cancellation fee if cancelled with less than 48 hours notice plus any expenses incurred (e.g advance booking of travel regardless of the amount of notice given). This has been due to people cancelling on me when I have booked travel/accommodation that can not be refunded based on people's confirmation. Please only book me if you are serious about working with me!
I'm also looking into doing some studio days in the future so any recommendations for good studios would be very welcome.
Looking forward to hearing from people.

Big Game Eyecon QuikShot 5.0MP Infrared Game Camera is rated out of 5 by 1.Rated 5 out of 5 by MARTIN from This is the 2nd Eyecon camera I have ordered. The shots I got with the 1st were amazing. 2 separate elk, 3 whitetails, 3 separate bears and 2 coyotes. Getting the photos has really made up my mind on where to hunt this year. It was amazingly simple to set up and the pics. were superb, day or night.Date published: 2013-08-08

Samsung shifts 22-vibrate-mode handset
Samsung has taken touchscreen vibration feedback technology, dubbed Haptic Touch, one step further, by unveiling a phone with no less than 22 different types of vibration. Samsung_Anycall_Haptic Samsung's AnyCall Haptic SCH-W420 has 22 vibration styles The AnyCall Haptic SCH-W420 gives off different kinds of vibration …
Now all we need is a surface that deforms to form buttons as the need arises.
I was also thinking, I wonder why no company has marketed a handset/mobile phone that offers a vibration mode for, uh, more intimate purposes.
Why bother?
I'm not sure I see the point of all this touch-feedback stuff, surely you can see if the control has changed? If you can't, due to the way you use the phone, then you might as well use one with standard keys.
Samsung meet LG
22 Different vibrations from Samsung, real feel skin silicone gubbins from LG... Bound to sell.
@Why Bother
There's a similar issue with car indicators - they always used to click as a direct function of the way that they worked.
When they were converted to use electronics, it was deemed appropriate/necessary to implement a click to keep people happy - otherwise they didn't know whether the lights were working or not.
There are advantages to using a "dynamic" control method that are not limited to the lack of motion in the keys - the ability to change the size/shape of the controls to match the running application for example.
(as for "intimate purposes", a friend of mine once let his phone just keep ringing when he was half asleep on the train - it felt too good to answer, apparently). Irritated the hell out of me, I needed to ask them a question...
Good for blind people?
They're supposed to have sensitive fingers. I know for sure I don't even get close to reading Braille.
RE:Good for blind people?
"They're supposed to have sensitive fingers. I know for sure I don't even get close to reading Braille."
Some blind people perhaps but certainly not all. I know of one lady who lost her sight due to diabetes and the same condition meant that she had very poor sensation in her fingers. Cruel eh?
Car indicators
The reason the clicking stayed, was to remind the more absent-minded driver that the indicator was still functioning. If only they had replaced that reminder with a boxing glove to the chest/bollocks. There should also be a backside electrode that is operated if you don't indicate when turning the steering wheel more than 45 degrees.
take it one step further. Have it shoot barbed electrodes into the genital
