Fast paced Highlight of Mike Tyson training, music: Propane Nightmares by Pendulum.
Fast paced Highlight of Mike Tyson training, music: Propane Nightmares by Pendulum.
or be able to punch them in the face, which would nullify the ground attacks.
Of all Mike Tyson videos this is probably the best one ive seen it covers so much technique just by quickly observing
Haha couldn't have put it any better.
Pendulum Propane Nightmares.
ye i only said that cause people were saying mike tyson could clean the house @UFC
the champion forever
That's such a stupid way to put. The MMA fighter would probably win in an MMA fight, the boxer would probably win a boxing match. A golfer would probably beat both of them at fucking golf.
what is this song?
I am fans of both boxing and MMA. Boxers and fencers probably have the best footwork for fighting but footwork in boxing is done to avoid punches and create angles to attack. not to avoid a takedown. MMA's footwork is so much different from boxing footwork
perfect boxer!
2013 excelente
like a flyweight
Very Good Video thanks
when are the videos from when hes fighting in t shirt? i never seen them befor.
music sucks
but hey, didnt mike tyson get KO by a nobody? yea !! he did
yes by one of the best fighters in the planet
didn't velasquez get knocked out in like…3 minutes before? lmao
u're right. we must kill the bad fat and belly first to get the 6 pack. Listen The surprising part is my friend who is not doing much excercises, maintaining his six pack with this secret food items. worth watch here now bit.ly/12wgTF7?=kgqzs
fucked up song
Not saying Tyson ever did wrestling, but most highlevel wrestlers would eat an uppercut if they tried to shoot on Tyson. One of the best ever, no one in MMA right now could have beaten Tyson in his prime. My guess.
Mike with 21year eat both of them in the first round XD
Say what you will about Mike Tyson – there's plenty to say – but if we're talking about him in his fighting prime, it should all be positive. I wouldn't venture a guess at his all-time rank, but no one ever past, present or future would want to face him.
if Mike can be 25 years younger he will eat klitschko brothers in first round ;p
evander holyfield is better much better and lennox lewis better.
Invincible !!!
If I could combine any two fighters, it would be Mike Tyson with Fedor Emelianenko.
His speed and reflexes were unreal. Just watching him drill the dempsey roll makes my eyes cross, I can't imagine trying to zero in on him in an actual fight.
Boxing legend
Ебать он быстрый.Просто машина!!!
bigg mr 1 Mike Tyson
Dude, I'm a boxing fan first and foremost. I've always loved the Sweet Science. I enjoy it far more than MMA. But that doesn't change the fact that MMA is a more complete combat sport. Well rounded MMA fighters have a much greater arsenal to pull from and a far methods to incapacitate you. Many of boxings move and strategies were cultivated to avoid what you see in a ring, namely punches. Even Mike's peek-a-boo style is of little use when a guy's going to kick the legs out from under you.
Nope because in mma if you suck at something you can mask it with something else. Plus half of these MMA fanboys think if they watch it and learn a leg kick and an armbar that they can beat a well trained boxer….
i said that because ppl were saying that mike tyson could beat any MMA fighter which is ridiculos
This isn't a street fight you troll it's called boxing. It's like saying Kobe needs to tackle like the NFL players if he wants to keep up with Ray Lewis. You make no sense.
Kid Dynamite! I don't care what anyone says there is not one man on the planet that could survive tyson in the ring when he was in his prime.
How was my comment directed to you? I was talking to Bombi spank guy…
As a wrestling/mma fan I actually appreciate and admire Mike tyson's footwork so don't put all of us in a box cockboy.
no good footwork?from comment u seemed to be a wrestling fan/MMA.You haven't seen enough boxing to comment like that…
is because of the sun and because the comments below mine

Corporate Communications
One of the most common mistakes video producers make when they post videos on the internet is to not do Search Engine Optimization (SEO) for the video. Search engines cannot see the content of a video and they depend upon the metadata or the closed caption transcript to know what the video is about. This post will describe how to optimize the metadata on YouTube for SEO. I understand why a lot of companies and video producers do not want to post their videos to YouTube, but if you are using video to help people find your company or website then you have to because the largest video search engine is YouTube Search and the largest online search engine is Google Search.
Optimizing your video for search engines is just like SEO for your website and blog. SEO best practices should be used for your YouTube video. The same way you determine what key words and phrases people will use to search for your web pages and blogs you would use to determine the keywords and phrases in your title, metadata, and page description of your videos.
- Title: Include a keyword or phrase in the title of your video. This is one of the first places people will look after a search result and obscure, silly or non-descriptive titles will not help.
- Description: Like the meta description for your website the first two lines of the video description will be displayed on both Google and YouTube searches. Include key words in the first sentence or two. Also include key words and phrases throughout the description. It is also important for videos that include, for example, several speakers, an organization's or brand's name or other information not easily included in the title to include that information in the description. If someone is searching for Frank Smith, the CEO of Global Widgets there is a better chance they will find it if that information is in the description.
- Tags: YouTube lets you enter in tags and keywords that help describe your video. Tags are single words YouTube will suggest and keywords are words and phrases you can include within quotation marks like: "long tail keyword phrase." This is the main place to add key words that people may use to search a topic. Including keywords used in the title and description will reinforce those keywords but also include keywords and tags that may not easily be part of the title or description.
- Categories: YouTube uses 15 categories for its videos. Be sure that your video is in the right category.
The other main area for video SEO is the Closed Caption file or video transcription file. With YouTube's auto caption services this is now a lot easier than it used to be and will be the subject of a future post.
This post is a short introduction to SEO for YouTube videos. You can download a free e-book on Search Engine Optimization for YouTube Videos for a more detailed description and guidelines.

This line hits me "One of the most common mistakes video producers make when they post videos on the internet is to not do Search Engine Optimization (SEO) for the video". The truth is its really not beneficial on your business if you keep on posting videos without even optimizing it. You'll not gain anything from it. Even until now, I still find optimizing my youtube channel effective in many ways. This article might help also http://seo-hacker.com/youtube-seo/
#2 from Ali Jewel on June 13, 2014
Thanks Tim for writing this useful post.
Above post contains quite important thing which is Meta tags, optimising meta tags is always necessary but there are some more points you need to consider. I found a good post http://www.falcon-websolutions.com/you-tube-video-marketing-and-optimisation-guide-part-1/ here pointing all required points.
#4 from Mike Cole on July 20, 2014
Great post! Its a golden technique to optimize title, keywords and category to get views to the youtube video.
#5 from Roland Dodd on September 09, 2014
video tags helps lot when we talk about video promotion in youtube. But there are many ways more which you can use to make your video viral
#6 from Tracy Marks on January 19, 2015
As a YouTuber myself, thanks for this. With YouTube taking down their tool late last year, put a real burden on how to optimize.
The only tool I have found to provide search volume is VideoCents. Any others out there?

Double dutch routine from Adam Sandler's Jack & Jill movie.
Double dutch routine from Adam Sandler's Jack & Jill movie.
122 jumps on a unicycle. DOUBLE DUTCHING on ONE WHEEL!!! Amazing feat of jump roping right here.
Way to go Mr. Kim Anthony Jones!!!
'Jump Rope Girls Project'
More than 20 years ago some spirited 11-year-old girls in Brooklyn used a love of double Dutch jump rope and rap-infused cheers to cope with the harsh aspects of their neighborhood, making them the subject of a newspaper article by Susan Hartman. Several years ago Ms. Hartman revisited the young women — some now with children of their own — leading to a 2008 follow-up article and the beginning of a multimedia project. At 7 p.m. Ms. Hartman and Nancy Kaye, who took photographs for the original article, will join some of the young women for a slide show and discussion that will also feature a question-and-answer session.
Dweck Center, Brooklyn Public Library, Grand Army Plaza at Flatbush Avenue and Eastern Parkway, Prospect Park, (718) 230-2100, brooklynpubliclibrary.org/events/culture-arts; FREE!
Yup, even Padma Lakshmi, the judge on Top Chef gets her jump rope on. She can jump on one foot, in heels. Nice!
(Don't blink or you'll miss her jumping)
From the LA Weekly article about the newest Top Chef season—
7) Padma keeps a jump rope in her suitcase.
Padma's been asked many times how she keeps so trim despite a job that requires her to eat so much, and in addition to boxing and running up and down flights of stairs, she carries as jump rope in her suitcase wherever she goes. Why not two? Double dutch anyone?
Padma, if you wanna learn to double dutch GIVE DDE A CALL!
Get ready for the world championship of Double Dutch. Hosted by The National Double Dutch League, 2011 will be the 20th Annual competition. TWENTY YEARS, OH MY! The perfect setting at The Apollo Theater in Harlem for the best double dutch you could ever dream of!
See the best of the best on December 4th from 1pm-4pm, from single speed double dutch to incredible fusion team routines. If the last few years taught us anything, the event normally ends around 6pm and it's usually a wild snowstorm outside, so wear warm clothes and bring a snack or two. It'll be a long day that will fill your heart with joy and your eyes will be in awe. Inspiring and magical, get your tickets now!!!
Registration is open until Monday, November 14th, so grab your team and enter!!!
DDF on Double Dutch Night from Planet Jump Rope on Vimeo.
DDF is a double dutch crew based in Belgium. They host, perform and create jump competitions and usually take the top spot. DDE ❤'s DDF
Protesters in London pass the time by jumping rope. YES!
Use physics to select the correct jump rope. Get smart and fit at THE SAME TIME!!!
Wired tells you how.
Thanks to impressive athleticism, high-speed video and clever computer modeling, two researchers have unraveled the hidden aerodynamics behind the playful task of skipping over a speeding rope.
"Now we can say what's a good or fast jump rope: one that's lightweight, has a small diameter and is short" and smooth, Aristoff said. "That gives you the lowest drag and highest speed."
Stunning double dutch spread in Italian Vogue.
All day I dream of fashion and double dutch. This is the MOST AMAZING THING EVER!!! More please!
Congrats to the jumpers — Tim, Ted, Joseph and Sebastian. Looking good fellas!

The book's title refers to Gilliatt's journalistic approach, as articulated in her introductory essay. "The face is three-quarter turned to us in leisure and in friendship," she writes. "But a vital quarter is always inexplicable except through paying attention to a man or woman's talk, small-talk, gestures, way of living, choice of intimates, professional endeavors." Gilliatt thought that a mixture of journalistic observation and novelistic reflection could unlock something secret and profound about the nature of creative genius. If James Agee appointed himself cinema's prophet, Gilliatt volunteered herself as the caretaker of its auteurs. "The point of a profile is to record exact expressions of focused and very particular minds," she once wrote. She was referring to her subjects, but she might as well have been talking about herself.
Gilliatt was born in London in 1932 and raised in Northumberland, where her father was the director of the BBC in the North East region from 1938 to 1941. At 14, frustrated by her parents' separation, Gilliatt claims to have run off to America, on a freighter ticket she funded in part by selling scripts to the BBC. Both of her parents thought she was with the other. Gilliatt attended Queen's College in London and then earned a scholarship to Vermont's Bennington College. She worked an office job in New York until winning a writing contest conducted by the British edition of Vogue and returning to London, where she eventually became an editor at the magazine. In 1961, Gilliatt began writing about film for The Observer. She published her first novel, One by One, in 1965; the book later served as source material for Sunday, Bloody Sunday.
Following the collapse of her second marriage, to the playwright John Osborne, Gilliatt relocated to New York right as William Shawn was doubling down on the New Yorker's efforts at cultural criticism. The arrival of Kael soon thereafter—another woman, and another truly idiosyncratic writer—said something about just what radical terrain Shawn felt cinema to be. The two frequently disagreed, and could not have been more different, stylistically and ideologically. Shawn had a nearly adversarial relationship with Kael; he was over-protective, even indulgent, with Gilliatt. Kael sometimes wrote as if she were making up the medium on the fly. Gilliatt was not only a true believer in the European canon, she prized the sort of access and elitism that was completely at odds with Kael's sensibilities. Kael wanted to convince you of things. Gilliatt took it as a given that certain people, places, and things were worth discussing, and wrote as if the reader ought to share those assumptions.
This assumed consent can make much of her writing feel somehow encoded, insular. Her point of view may be somewhat fussy, and she can seem smug and unbearable at times ("Jean Renoir said something of this sort to me in Paris when we were shopping for gigot of lamb"), but the way she goes about drawing characters—at once stark and impressionistic—makes her profiles read fresh, even today.
You can't appreciate Gilliatt without understanding the way she worked. For one thing, she thought a writer had to be almost unhealthily obsessed with her subject in order for the profile to be any good. "Impossible to write adequately of anyone who doesn't haunt the writer's thought," she wrote. "It is a joyful affair to report accurately on the inner vernacular of someone whose work and character one cherishes." And that "inner vernacular" couldn't always be captured by traditional journalistic means: though Gilliatt would spend great spans of time reporting her stories, she felt strongly that note-taking had limited value and admitted that she took liberties with her subjects' quotes.
In the introduction to Three-Quarter Face, she describes profiling and reviewing as a "fictional process," an unfortunate choice of words given her later professional difficulties. Nevertheless, it's a valuable insight into why good reporting alone doesn't always make for a compelling story. A reporter's notebook can be filled with facts and figures; but unless some effort is made to squeeze meaning out of those details, and the author is willing to take an interpretive risk, no amount of research will make the story land. This doesn't mean interpreting wildly for the sake of effect, or forcing connections where they don't necessarily exist, but rather taking note of gestures, phrases, and other stray details that, in themselves, say something larger about the subject. The fiction writer creates characters entirely, and this level of control allows the author the fine-grained detail that the journalist can't always muster.

Science SPORE Prize November 2011
The Open Source Physics Project is supported by NSF DUE-0442581.
Return to the Using hardware thread Login to post to this thread
EJS has now new a Model Elements to control Arduino boards.The best way to learn how to use it is to inspect an examples. See attached zip with an example.Before you start, you need to download and install Arduino standard software from http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Software. This allows you to install the drivers for your computers AND install in your Arduino board the script StandardFirmata. Both things are a must before using the example attached. You install the script by running the Arduino software and selecting "File->Examples->Firmata->StandardFirmata. Then, click the "Upload" icon (looks like a small right arrow) in the task bar of the Arduino software. This step needs to be done only once (per board).Now, open the attached Arduino example in the latest EJS and inspect the example (in particular, the Model -> Elements tab).You need additional hardware for making things work. The boards just act as I/O boards. Whatever software you attach to them makes the real work. But if you are playing with these boards, you know this already.Good luck!Paco

Hi Franciso, I`m now experimenting wiht Arduino Leonardo and I have a question.In your example you're using linux and the following sentencearduino.connectSerial("/dev/tty.usbmodem1421")Should ¡ld I replace It for arduino.connectSerial("COM6")?Because I'm using windows and my Arduino board was installed in COM6 and connected through USB port.Thank in advance for your help.
Yes, that should be it. Remember to install the Arduino drivers.I don't think we have tested the Leonardo board, though...Paco
Paco, thank you for your help. I replaced the line you suggested and It works perfectly well.I used the temperture example but with some modifications because I´m tryin to perform a remote laboratory turning on and turning off a laser diode and illuminate a difraction slit.Now I´m moving to work in the Moodle integration.Surely I´ll be requesting for your help again.Thank you very much in advance for that.

Excavations at Barcın Höyük
NIT Research Project Early Farming Communities in the Eastern Marmara Region
How did the first farming communities develop in northwest Anatolia, more than 8000 years ago? How did these people make a living, in what kinds of settlements did they live, how did they treat their dead, and with which communities nearby and far away did they interact? And, at a broader temporal and regional scale, what was the role of northwest Anatolia in the spread of farming from the Near East to Europe in the Neolithic Age?
These are some of the central questions of the long-term research project Early Farming Communities in the Eastern Marmara Region launched by the Netherlands Institute for the Near East (NINO) and the Netherlands Institute in Turkey (NIT) some 25 years ago. For a better understanding of the westward spread of agriculture, the study of the Marmara region, located on the geographical boundaries of Asia and Europe, is of key importance. Yet, this region has long remained a blank on the map of prehistoric archaeology.

At the beginning of the Early Farming project stood the excavations at Ilıpınar, launched in 1987 by Jacob Roodenberg. This was the first systematic attempt to find out when and how the alluvial valleys of this region were colonized by early farming communities. It was discovered that the site, which could be dated back 8,000 years, had a full-fledged farming economy. The mound of Menteşe was studied as a second step in the Early Farming project in order to be able to evaluate the evidence from Ilıpınar in its regional context. This site had begun to be occupied in the second half of the seventh millennium, making its initial settlement several centuries older than Ilıpınar. A third mound, Hacılartepe, was investigated because of presumed links with nearby Ilıpınar. This site yielded only Early Bronze Age material, however.
The NIT Excavations at Barcın Höyük (2005-)
The third step in the Early Farming project was the launch of excavations at Barcın Höyük in 2005. The site is located 5 km west of the town of Yenişehir along the road between İznik and Bursa. This mound, with evidence for occupation in Byzantine, Hellenistic/Roman, Early Bronze, Late Chalcolithic, and Late Neolithic periods, promised finds perhaps even predating the oldest phases excavated at Menteşe and Ilıpınar. As the research continues, it is hoped that a thorough study of the Neolithic layers will provide significant information on the earliest phases of settled life in the area. This in turn will help elucidate the role of the Marmara region in the processes of Neolithization of northwest Anatolia and southeastern Europe.
As with so many prehistoric sites in Anatolia, Barcın Höyük first entered the literature through the work of James Mellaart and David French. The site was included in the surveys of Mehmet Özdoğan in the 1980s. No further study was undertaken until 2005, when excavations were begun by NIT/NINO under the direction of Jacob Roodenberg and (in 2005 and 2006) under the auspices of the İznik Museum. The site, hitherto known as "Yenişehir II" was renamed "Barcın Höyük" after the village in the vicinity. Excavations continued annually since then, since 2007 under the direction of Fokke Gerritsen of the NIT.

Hands-On With The Longines Conquest Heritage 1954-2014, A 35mm Vintage-Inspired Marvel
When we first heard about the Longines Conquest Heritage, we had to do a double-take; was Longines really re-releasing a 35mm dress watch to celebrate its 60th anniverary? The answer is a resounding yes and we couldn't be happier with the results. Sure, vintage tribute watches have been something of a trend as of late, but rarely do we see something that remains this faithful to the original inspiration. The Conquest Heritage is a limited edition available in steel, yellow gold, and pink gold, and here we have a closer look at all three.

In this paper we study inexact inverse iteration for solving the generalised eigenvalue problem A x=λM x. We show that inexact inverse iteration is a modified Newton method and hence obtain convergence rates for various versions of inexact inverse iteration for the calculation of an algebraically simple eigenvalue. In particular, if the inexact solves are carried out with a tolerance chosen proportional to the eigenvalue residual then quadratic convergence is achieved. We also show how modifying the right hand side in inverse iteration still provides a convergent method, but the rate of convergence will be quadratic only under certain conditions on the right hand side. We discuss the implications of this for the preconditioned iterative solution of the linear systems. Finally we introduce a new ILU preconditioner which is a simple modification to the usual preconditioner, but which has advantages both for the standard form of inverse iteration and for the version with a modified right hand side. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the theoretical results.

To a funeral and a wedding in the same weekend. Just some moments strung together in sun-shined air conditioning through the deep south. Through masses of Mississippi kudzu, clusters of Arkansas oaks and miles of soldier straight pines, stoically observing all who pass. Observing us ploughing down the road with 4 adventurous, happy, thoughtful and healthy boys.
Looking forward to visiting seldom seen family and close friends. Thankful for ties that bind. For hearts that remain close in spite if great distance. Thankfully connected to the tribe of people God's plunked me down in the middle of.
Thankful to believe the best is yet to come. Thankful my newly-buried grandmother will be there to introduce me to that heavenly best-ness when my moment comes.
Thankful to be surrounded by love on all sides.

(CNN) – A gay couple says a shuttle bus driver in Albuquerque, NM told them to sit in the back of the bus because they were holding hands.
Ron McCoy and his partner, Chris Bowers, flew into Albuquerque from Portland, OR on June 28. Their arrival came two days after the U.S. Supreme Court made its historic rulings for same-sex couples, and the day before Albuquerque's "Pride Fest."
The couple was in New Mexico for a long-awaited road trip through the Southwest, but their excitement soon died, McCoy said.
The couple sat in front of a shuttle bus holding hands, when the driver, McCoy said, discriminated against them.
"I saw him look at us, look down at his hands and he looked so angry. He just blurted out at me, "He goes, 'OK if you're going to do that," McCoy said. "You're going to the back of the bus."
The couple did not want any trouble, and obeyed the driver's command. They did ask the driver why he had them move once the shuttle stopped.
"I said 'I think it was because you didn't like the fact that I was holding my partner's hand.' He goes, 'see now you're telling on yourself.' My partner responds, 'well that's discrimination.' And the driver responds, 'you're telling on yourself again,'" said McCoy.
Witness Bernadette Aguirre stepped in between the couple and the driver.
"I told the bus driver that I was completely appalled that anybody would be treated this way," said Aguirre.
McCoy said the driver responded by telling what he thought was appalling, and pointed at the couple.
The owner of the shuttles, Sunport, was embarrassed by the driver's behavior. Sunport shuttles are contracted out by a private company, Standard Parking.
"First and foremost, it's absolutely unacceptable," said Sunport spokesperson Dan Jiron. "We immediately got in touch with Standard Parking to assess what exactly happened. They acknowledged this was a mistake on the part of the driver."
McCoy says no one has attempted to apologize to him or Bowers, and says neither he nor his partners have any closure from the upsetting experience. When the couple traveled home, they had a different shuttle driver and travel went without incident as they held hands.
The couple has since filed a complained with the American Civil Liberties Union. A company manager from Standard Parking said the driver was inappropriate and got "carried away."
The company is now requiring all drivers to take sensitivity training.

Facebook, Twitter, Groupon – Social media sites grab the headlines as their valuations continue to skyrocket based on the perception that these sites significantly influence how we work, play, and shop today. But how influential are they, really?
We know about Facebook and what a HUGE country its participants could now form; its growth continues unabated. More people spending more time on games, vacation pictures, and stalking former flames.
Twitter is truly a new media outlet with fast-breaking, world-changing news being tweeted 24×7. Look at how Twitter helped to bring down an entrenched dictator in power for over 40 years in Egypt to get a sense of what unfettered access to information can do – even if it is only 140 characters at a time. In its less world-changing form it is also a source of ongoing banality that can numb even the most avid tweeter.
And Groupon – yes Groupon continues to grow quickly as well. With its most recent foray into China the company is in 43 countries and has 51M subscribers (source: Economist) but with other group coupon sites springing up like weeds in springtime, its competitive advantage has been severely eroded. The concept has, however, changed shopping in ways that weren't even anticipated only three years ago.
So what's a retailer to do? And perhaps, more importantly, how can retailers make money in social media?

Many prefer to live in places with temperate climate and high quality of life. Likewise, many wish to get settled in the United States as they believe that it is a land of opportunities. United States has been a country of immigrants and many have immigrated and are immigrating to the United States for various reasons. Many believe that the education system of the United States is better than that of the other countries and that is the reason why they prefer America. Well educated foreign nationals easily get jobs in the United States as the country lacks people who are good in maths, science and engineering fields. Individuals with disabilities, school drop-outs and old people easily get opportunities to enroll in colleges and to study, at any time. Likewise, there are people who study in America and get back to their home countries and the individuals who study in the United States get better job opportunities in their home countries.
Apart from that, people look forward to work in America as the country pays them more and because the dollar is higher than the currencies of most foreign countries. United States is well known for freedom and the people living in America can do anything but they must not break the laws of the country. Apart from people who come to America for education and for employment, many from poor countries come to America in search of a better live. Many also travel America to escape poverty. United Sates permits the people to practice any religion and so many who want to live in freedom and practice their own religions, are attracted towards America. Another aspect that is drawing the attention of many foreign nationals is the quality of life and many believe that America is the same as the Hollywood shows. Though many other countries are also developing, many are still crazy about America.
Some get into America to live with their family members who are residing in the country. Likewise, a person who gets a Green Card in America or becomes a US citizen, can sponsor his/her relatives and bring them to America. Immigration through marriage is quite easy and this also permits them to experience the good life the country offers. Moreover, people in America are creative and the cultural and racial diversity are two important factors that make people love the country. Many hate to live in countries with no international influences and such people choose to get into America as the country has people from various places and different cultures. Likewise, people in America can write and speak anything they wish and they may not be penalized for doing so. But this may not be possible in many other foreign countries and people in China who dare to speak against the government, may be assassinated and Iran puts bloggers in jail as the government of Iran does not like their blogs. These are few best things about the United States that draws the attention of almost all the foreign nationals.

Remember Harper, the deformed puppy rescued from a garbage bag in Central Florida and given lots of specialized help by strangers? We decided to check in and see how she's been faring since her rescue a little more than six months ago, aaaaaaaaaaand ... good news! Harper the puppy is deformed no more.
In fact, Harper is a happy, 35-pound ball of energy who loves romping through fields, playing tug-of-war and instigating mischief with the older dogs in her home. Once afflicted with a rigor-mortis-like condition dubbed "swimmer puppy syndrome" and viewed as an animal that would need to be put down — or, at the very least, require extensive and costly medical care — Harper has received an all-clear by veterinarians at the University of Florida.
"There's literally nothing wrong with her now," said Erica Daniel, 27, the woman who provided Harper with a foster home last September and arranged for her to receive hydrotherapy, massage therapy and other care. "Her blood work's perfect. Everything's perfect. ...
"And she's a big goofball! She's a lunatic! She's a typical puppy, you know? She's eaten a couple of pairs of shoes. But she's awesome. We love her so much. I just look forward to waking up and seeing her face every day."
That's right: After everything they went through together, Daniel couldn't bear to give Harper up for adoption — so Harper's foster home became her permanent home, and Daniel and Harper are an inseparable team. These days, Daniel often finds herself chauffeuring Harper around to public appearances and volunteer events. Some examples:
No more doggie wheelchairs? New drug offers hope
Harper Howard's mother, Penny Howard, said her family's connection with Daniel and Harper the puppy has helped and inspired them tremendously.
"Harper the dog had a rare disorder and was not expected to live, [and our] baby Harper has a rare disorder with an unknown life expectancy," she said. "Erica's Harper has progressed and is developing into a normal dog, which brings us great hope for our Harper's outcome."
Daniel said she continues to be astonished by the media attention her doggedly determined pup Harper receives. The publicity has resulted in generous donations for Daniel's year-old pit-bull-rescue organization, Dolly's Foundation. It's also landed her a deal for a future book.
"We've been so fortunate," Daniel said. "We want to kind of share the wealth and help other organizations if we can."
Daniel's dream is to transform Dolly's Foundation into a full-fledged facility north of Orlando that focuses on all things dog-related: spaying and neutering, education, training, boarding, agility events, trails, off-leash play, and, of course, adoptions.
"We'd love to have every room set up like living rooms with TVs and couches and stuff," Daniel said. "You could come on a weekend, hang out, watch a movie or watch Sunday football with the dog you're thinking about adopting. You know, try it out for a couple of hours and see how you guys get along."
And can you guess who would always be allowed on the facility's couches? You know it: Harper.
"She's our baby!" Daniel said. "She still loves it when we hold her like a little baby. My husband holds her like that all the time on his recliner."
TODAY.com writer Laura T. Coffey wants to play tug-of-war with Harper RIGHT NOW. Come here, girl! Come here!

The Gujarat University was conceived in the nineteen twenties in the minds of public-spirited and learned men like Gandhiji, Sardar Patel, Acharya Anandshankar B. Dhruva, Dada Saheb Mavlankar, Kasturbhai Lalbhai and many others. However, the University could come into existence only after the achievement of independence.In 1949, the University was incorporated under the Gujarat University Act of the State Government as a teaching and affiliating University. This was done as a measure of decentralisation and reorganization of University education in the then Province of Bombay. During the course of its life of more than five decades, the University has seen the establishment of seven more Universities which were carved out of the jurisdiction of the Gujarat University, viz., Sardar Patel University, Saurashtra University, Bhavnagar University, South Gujarat University, Gujarat Ayurveda University, Gujarat Agricultural University and North Gujarat University. Even then, the Gujarat University is the largest university in the state catering to the needs of higher education of more than two lakh students scattered over 235 colleges, 15 recognised institutions and 24 approved institutions. There are 34 Post-Graduate University departments and 221 P.G. Centres. Gujarat University is an affiliating University at the under-graduate level, while it is a teaching one at the post-graduate level. Indeed, the responsibility for post-graduate instruction has been statutorily given to the University, and accordingly it has evolved a plan of co-ordinated instruction under the direct control and supervision of the University so as to ensure efficient and diversified instruction. An important feature of this University is the system of external examinations in the Faculties of Arts and Commerce, both and under-graduate and post-graduate levels. The external examinations were introduced with a view to enabling working students and the others who could not afford the high cost of university education to realize their dream. Gujarat University has developed phenomenally in the last 57 years to be recognized as a premier University in the country today. It provides education in one of the widest range of disciplines to about two lakh students.

Seven Best Broward Ghosts
2. Napoleon Broward"LOOK AT MY MUSTACHE. LOOK AT IT!"
Died: October, 1910
Broward is the most ghostly-looking of all the ghosts on this list. Plus the county is named after him. So for those reasons, he makes the list. Napoleon will haunt you with his beady-eyed gaze and his thick quality mustache. He's also known to haunt the Everglades, where he continues to try to drain the water so he can build stuff on it. Broward left a legacy of crapping all over Florida's wilderness and nature, and now that spirit has carried over to Rick Scott, who doesn't give a shit about the environment and the continual spreading of invasive species into the area. Scariest of all, though: You just got a HISTORY LESSON!
1. Anna Nicole Smith"Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.. wwwwwehhhh."
Died: February 8, 2007
The ghost of Anna Nicole Smith still haunts the hallways of the Hard Rock, probably. Instead of the usual ghostly haunted boos, her spirit will just make lazy whiney noises until you notice her. She's known to haunt old rich tycoons until they die, and then takes their money. She will also eat all your food when you're sleeping. Also when you're not sleeping. Also when you're literally eating. Anna Nicole's ghost is a hot fat mess, and more of a nuisance than an actual scary entity. The best way to exorcise her is just to ignore her. If... you... caaaan...
