love the fact that arum is giving advice on how the mgm should sack its CEO because there not doing as well as the venetian – does that mean he is going to sack himself because TR is not doing as good as GBP? also last time arum started throwing his dummy out and giving advice to corporations he got ross greenberg sacked from HBO look how its ended up for HBO – despite having the bigger budget playing second fiddle to showtime and with the raw talent leaving.Posted April 11, 2014 12:52 pm

100k is a low estimate. 500k is about right. Pacquiao* couldn't crack that number for his comeback bout v. Rios who actually has a fanbase due to his notoriety. it's gonna be tougher to reach v. Bradley who should but doesn't necessarily have a huge and loyal fanbase but maybe it's time for the westside to rally around a native son. if that happens, 500k is possible. 1 million isn't going to happen for this weak card and business-related headliner.Posted April 11, 2014 9:53 am
1.2 million is a low estimate. Manny Pacquiao is without a doubt the biggest, most popular athlete in the entire world. The man creates news where ever he goes. He is the biggest draw ever. Add millions more to the PPV numbers because millions do not purchase the fight, but still love Manny Pacquiao. Manny Pacquaio is the most loved athlete in the sports world. He is th eONLY 8 division boxing champion in history. He is the most exciting and entertaining boxer in history. This fight is all about Manny Pacquiao. Timothy Bradley is who again??? He has no following. Manny is the draw and the appeal in this fight as he is in all fights. I am in Las Vegas and Manny Pacquiao has generated a type of electricity that can run every electrical piece of equipment in it. Manny Pacquiao takes the headache away from aspirin. Saturday night you will see what I have been clamoring about over the last year. The doubters and haters will be on their knees apologizing to Manny Pacquiao. The fighting Filipino is on a mission that will be conquered in stunning fashion. The wait is over. I'm cruising down the street in Manny Pacquiao attire, and all I see is Manny fans. It's a sea of the proud Filipino people. Las Vegas has been taken over by "MANNY MANIA." Forget what's happening all over the world. Manny takes center stage like never before. Sin City has been cleansed by an angel. I will be at the weigh-in tomorrow, and that place is going to erupt with emotions and cheers of "Manny, Manny, Manny, Manny, Manny." And I will be taking the lead. It's an unbelievable feeling just being in a place where the greatest fighter of all time is going to make history. My emotions are running high with anticipation of the biggest fight in boxing history. I am at the casino right now and have put down a chunk of saved money on the knockout to come. I know there will be doubters, but trust me, Manny is punching as lethal as ever. Sparring partners have been sent to hospitals. Shot gun blasts have been heard coming from the gym only to see manny hitting those mitts. The power is there. The passion is there. The desire to take back his title and reclaim the title of P4P the greatest fighter today will be placed back onto Manny's head. This is a legend that does the impossible. Don't bet against him ever. Timothy Bradley is a sheep being led to the slaughter house, someone please tell him. Please have the hospitals and ambulances ready to go. This may end badly for him. Manny Pacquiao is a roaring lion ready to feast on his prey. Manny will win this fight by stunning and brutal fashion. The King is Back! The King is Back! Trust me on this. Manny Pacquiao will take the world by storm, the desert storm that is. Manny is the best!Posted April 11, 2014 3:25 am

Manny* did try and do things the easy way and got taken to school and paddled by Marquez in III. he knew it. it was Pacquiao's* sense of shame and humiliation that compelled him to agree to IV and another lopsided payday in his favor BUT also the worse KO Loss in Boxing History that won't be forgotten for a Millinillion years.Posted April 11, 2014 1:43 am
Napioa aka Plankman
Marquez school Paquioa in all 4 fights. Pacquioa can not fight counterpunchers. In the last one he nearly killed him. Your point? Bradley, Marquez & Mayweather (counterpunchers) would/DID school Pacquioa.Posted April 10, 2014 10:36 pm
Titopa my friend, boxers like Mayweather schooled him, Chris John schooled him, Bradley boxed him and schooled him. Manny is a boxer puncher but wants to fight you 99% of the time. If he wanted to box, he would have ran circles around Marquez as he did against Rios. Marquez is horrible and can't catch up to anyone with movement. He's always off balance. Manny would have shut him out 12 rounds to zero had he wanted to do things the easy way.Posted April 10, 2014 8:21 pm
Last time I saw a fight in Vegas was in 2003, the rematch between De La Hoya and Mosley…if I recall correctly, that fight was sold out which is why I went to a closed circuit. Correct me if I'm wrong.Posted April 10, 2014 7:42 pm

How could that be. On Feb 6th 70% of the tickets were already sold. Where are you getting your info?."
There are only a few hundred seats that are unsold as of today. Remember, the MGM Grand arena seats about 17,000 spectators. Tickets for watching the fight on closed circuit TV in the MGM Grand Ballroom are sold out.Posted April 10, 2014 7:09 pm
"They don't owe Top Rank or Bob Arum anything when it comes to business.

Hecdog "Marquez has terrible feet, boxers can easily beat him"…if it's so "easy", why couldn't Pacquiao do it? It took Pacquiao 42 rounds to try to beat Marquez, and STILL couldn't do it. C'mon! Give me a break.Posted April 10, 2014 6:44 pm
Trust me on this gentlemen. This fight will have a lot of action, and both will go at it from the start, but Timothy Bradley has underestimated Manny Pacquaio. He is under the false pretense that Manny has slipped and lost his killer instinct. Timothy believes he has gaine valuable experience in the Marquez and Provodnikov fight, but he hasn't. Provodnikov had him beat, and IMO, did beat him. He showed that a fighter can be concussed and still continue to fight. He didn't improve, but regressed in this fight. Timothy boxed well in the Marquez fight, but Marquez has horrible feet. Boxers can easily beat him. Bradley didn't overwhelm him, he just fought a style that Marquez is horrible with. Both fight styles Timothy Bradley used have no barring on his upcoming fight with Manny Pacquiao. Bradley actually believes that he's seen everything Manny has to offer. He says that Manny can't hit that hard and that he's not that great, and I truly believe that Bradley believes that. Great! This is why I say that Manny will dominate Bradley and beat him in stunning fashion. Bradley is going to not back down and make a fight of it. Joel Diaz also thinks he can mimic Manny Pacquiao's style on the mitts. Great! He's out of his mind. A fight is a totally different challenge, but Joel actually believes he gave Bradley the exact duplicate of Manny Pacquiao. Trust me on this, Manny is going to hit Bradley often and hard from the get go. Bradley will get brave until he gets caught, and then he will look for cover. Manny is going to walk him down and slowly and bruatally chop him down. Manny is as motivated as he's ever been. The jab, straight left hand and the uppercuts will eventually stop him. You will see how a deafening crowd that supports Manny Pacquiao will bring more out of Manny Pacquiao than ever seen before. The crowd around the world, and his beautiful wife Jinkee have given Manny an insurmountable emotional lift that will turn Manny into a monster on April 12th. The MGM Grand will be on fire, and Manny will step up to the plate and give all of us a fight to remember. Manny Pacquiao will take his proper seat as P4P King of the ring. The greatest pure fighter in boxing history. The only 8 division boxing champion ever. Manny Pacquiao takes back his rightful throne. Manny is the best. I'm on my flight tomorrow dressed in full Manny Pacquiao attire. Manny is the best!Posted April 10, 2014 6:40 pm

Exactly!!!!!Posted April 10, 2014 5:37 pm
Octavius Jomar Chatman – Another good point, and that's coming from a Pacquiao fan? That's gotta be the first LOL. You're right, Floyd is NO ONE without his team, his team being his manager(s) and GBP….there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with knowing you can't carry a PPV event by yourself, plus, as boxing fans we don't want ONE good fight, we want 3 or 2 at the minimum…so when people say Floyd "needs" other popular fighters on his cards to sell, I say "that's GREAT that he needs them, that just means we get better PPV cards".Posted April 10, 2014 5:33 pm

Mayweather as good of a fighter he is knows he can't sell a card all by himself; why you think he tries to make sure the card is stacked as much as possible. Sure; when he fought Canelo; folks wanted to see that fight; but it made the card that much better with Mattysse and Garcia battling it out on it. Same with this upcoming card. He got Khan and Collazo on there and some others as well. It's going to be a great show. Folks will walk away feeling they got their money's worth. All parties will be happy because they all making tons of money.Posted April 10, 2014 5:28 pm
Octavius Jomar Chatman – Solid points. I guess it also doesn't help that he's going about this ALL WRONG, talking about the MGM grand to the media is foolish and unprofessional, he was also being disrespectful. If he has a problem with them, he should zip his lips and talk to them…they way he's going about it is just going to make him HAVE to find other venues.Posted April 10, 2014 5:28 pm
Octavius Jomar Chatman
@Titopa; I agree. Some folks let their bias feelings for a fighter cloud their judgement. I feel like MGM is basically sticking it to Arum like Arum stuck it to them. He basically told them to kiss his ass and took his show on the road; when things didn't quite work out; now he comes running back and expects to be accepted with open arms. Secondly; everyone is trying to make money including the MGM. If he wants to have them CHAMPION him and his fighters; he better start doing his job and PROMOTE the event. Don't just give them one good fight give them A HELL OF A SHOW…A GOOD CARD PERIOD!!!!Posted April 10, 2014 5:25 pm
Octavius Jomar Chatman – True. But on the business side of things, I HATE to say this but Bob Arum does have a point…if they MGM decides to stop doing business with Arum, that's fine, but you can't take the money from Top Rank AND the sponsors (Tecate) and then go have their competitors products and posters plastered all around the venue…that's also not right. But it's still pretty funny seeing it happen to ROB Arum LOLPosted April 10, 2014 5:23 pm

Octavius Jomar Chatman
I sit here on the pages and other sites all the time and hear people knock Floyd for fighting this one and that one and getting into debates about who sells more PPVs. WELL…Arum needs to swallow his pride and take a page out of his former pugilist book and start putting on a hell of a show and weigh in. Say what you want about Floyd and DLH promotions but they are some marketing geniuses.Posted April 10, 2014 5:20 pm
Octavius Jomar Chatman
@Peej; but that's his fault. It's his responsibility to put on an awesome card. You can't just grab people's attention with just ONE fight; not with the outrageous money being asked for PPV and attending fights nowadays. People want their money's worth.Posted April 10, 2014 5:17 pm

Arum is just upset cause to let sales are lousyPosted April 10, 2014 4:44 pm
Octavius Jomar Chatman
So let me get this straight. Arum is upset with the MGM because they have posters for Mayweather vs Maidana up already. LOL…This is the same man that disrespected the MGM not too long ago and went on a rant about how his fighter was paying too many taxes here in the states; so he was taking his show elsewhere (CHINA). We all know how that went as far as the PPV numbers and what have you; now he comes back and expects them to kiss his ass and show him all this love??? Mind you Floyd had fought in that building TEN TIMES and brings TONS of money to them when he fights; in fact he brings TONS of money to that city when he fights!!!! Bob is FUNNY :)Posted April 10, 2014 4:14 pm

Manny "Fighter of Floyd's prime decade" Pacquiao – Thanks for not being the typical Pacquiao fan who goes on a tangent and starts attacking me personally. Yeah, it's definitely more of a winnable fight for Pacquiao, but I just feel that Bradley's style will trouble him.Posted April 10, 2014 2:38 pm
Bob Arum.., "HBO (BA) makes a BILLION dollars every 3 months.. Showtime struggles to pay it's bills."
Bob likes to boast and denigrate in the same sentence. Why isn't Pacquiao successful at getting his taxes paid? Do you ever sit down and give Pac financial advice? Since you're so successful and such a freakin' genius.
He's basically saying, "Those idiots over there at Showtime don't know WTF they're doing. No wonder everybody likes BA."Posted April 10, 2014 2:35 pm
I was watching Captain America and commercials comes on at the beginning and their is a commercial about Floyd vs. Maidana and showing KO's, powershots in slow motions then Mayweather standing looking at the audience and looking tough and then out of no where a guy shouted hey!, that guy scared of Pacquiao! A few people laugh and heard some says yeah! I give it to Mayweather he is goo in advertising! He must have learned a lot from WWE!Posted April 10, 2014 2:20 pm

Manny "Fighter of Floyd's prime decade" Pacquiao
Titopa im kinda thinking along the same lines as your post but odviously from a Pac fans perspective. I dont see any which way Bradley can win judging by the 1st fight so as a Pac fan im curious to see how good Pac will look. Bradley can certainly make it hard for Pac to look good with his movement especially if he just focuses on that and not looking good himself. I actually think thats gonna be Bradleys main strategy.Posted April 10, 2014 1:44 pm
Bob has finally lost it. LOL Golden Boy and Mayweather Promotions have paid to have their posters up all over Vegas, that's what promoters do before a fight. The MGM Grand doesn't put up anything on it's walls unless they are getting paid to do so. They don't owe Top Rank or Bob Arum anything when it comes to business. Bob Arum needs to be upset at his own people for not doing the same. Perhaps in the future you should book another venue for your fights or decorate the place promoting your fight the way a promoter is supposed to doPosted April 10, 2014 1:22 pm

The One and Only Manny Pacquiao, is the epitome of class and humility, my friends. With World Titles from Flyweight All The Way Up To Light Middleweight, a Truly Astonishing and Astounding never-to-be-repeated Feat, Manny, THE FIGHTER OF THE DECADE of course, will Reclaim his WBO World Welterweight Title on Saturday night as he befuddles and bewilders the brave Tim Bradley to a Clear and Comprehensive defeat in Las Vegas, the entertainment capital of the World. Manny, like Mack the Knife, is back in town, babyyyyyyyy! Back In His Spiritual Home. Ready to Rumble, ready to Rock n Roll, ready to ply his trade as ONLY He can…Manny will, once again, be THE DANCING DOMINATING DESTRUCTIVE DEVASTATING DESTROYER OF OLD, A PEERLESS PUNISHING PRECISE PUNCHING PURVEYOR OF PERFECTION. He's going to bob 'n weave, dance, showboat, spin, punch in high volume as he overwhelms Tim Bradley, hit and not be hit, he's going to be throwing punches in bunches with bad intentions, he's going to be quick and slick, with all the tricks, as he teases and torments his hapless foe. Manny 'The Pacman' Pacquiao will be The Fearless Ferocious Fighting Filipino Phenomenon of old as he Climbs the Mountain yet again to scale the Heights of UNPARALLELED GREATNESS. Manny is, quite simply, THE BEST.Posted April 10, 2014 1:14 pm

I really think Bradley's gonna make Pacquiao look terrible, win or lose, Pacquiao's NOT going to look like he did against Rios. Unlike Rios, Bradley's has good feet and knows how to move around the ring in angles….if in fact, he did hurt his ankle(s) in the first fight, I can only imagine the movement he's going to give Pacquiao this time around. I can't really say Bradley's going to win cause I'm not quite sure he'll throw enough, but anything's possible. We'll see. It's a toss up IMO.Posted April 10, 2014 11:42 am
Pac is vulnerable when he's too aggressive so he really needs to fight smart.

Dan Rafael scored the previous fight 11 to 1. WTF! I think Pac won the fight but not by that margin. Maybe 8 to 4 or even as close as 7 to 5 but no way 11 to 1. Bradleys not the same dude he faced 2 yrs ago. Ruslan and Marquez will vouch on that. Bradley finds ways to win, he's not pretty, he's not graceful, he's pure Tiger Blood. I dont think Pac is a lame duck Pac has a lot of fight in him. But i think TB has just a bit more in the tank to put this fight behind him. Good luck to both men. No excuses just go out and punch it out!Posted April 10, 2014 10:12 am

I give respect to both Packman and Bradley. I have to pick Pacquiao only because Bradley was hurt a few times in his past 2 fights. He gets rocked too easily for me to see him win this one HOWEVER, this fight could go either way, and if Packman loses he should hang em up. If Bradley wins, he will hang around for a while but he won't rule for a long time, If Packman wins, which again, I think he will, he also won't be around very long… and a Mayweather fight will never happen in my opinion but if it did Mayweather would make him look foolish. So, over all, the future really doesn't look good for either one . Would Bradley ever agree to fight Canelo, .. I doubt it, and if he did, it would be his biggest mistake …Boxingdictionary.com… "The Language of the Ring"… a book for anyone who loves the fight gamePosted April 10, 2014 8:50 am

Rated 4 out of 5 by AM421984 Great little vacation! We just came back from the Westin and had a great time there. Starting with the not-so-great/average, I think the resort should improve on several items: - pool hours, from 8am to 6pm. I can guess a few reasons for this, but at least the adult-only pool should have extended hours. I would have enjoyed watching the sunset (at 6pm) on the beach and be able finish the afternoon with a drink at the pool... - the beach center (third-party run but on Westin property), where the bikes are destroyed and helmets broken – this is rather annoying (broken pedal, chain going away) and unsafe; also, you can get these bikes or kayaks only when it's way too hot to enjoy it (830am to 4pm). Extended hours would be very nice. - the activity center, where you are promised new ping pong rackets "tomorrow" the whole week... playing with wood sticks isn't great at all; - the wildlife control sound around the main pool (Caracola/Spirula) – I guess I'm one of the few sensitive people to that sound, and had a hard time at lunch time. Lowering the volume (or stopping these) during lunch hours would be appreciable (and I'm sure the staff would enjoy as well) - last, the photo center. While the photograph team is really great (we dealt with Mariana and Gabriel), the pricing is quite high to say the least… (To be fair, this isn't part of the Westin, but is a service on the property) Now, going to the good stuff, we really appreciated the facility for the following: - the location – what a nice property; while said to be pretty full we didn't feel like it was crowded (like you would in Mexico or Jamaica…). Best, take a stroll along the beach to get away from everybody have all the space you want! (note though that there isn't much shade and the beach staff won't let you get an umbrella – but some trees will let you have some shadow) Fun nature around as well – few monkeys, lots of coatis, raccoons and iguanas. (btw, very nice golf cart tour at 3pm from the lobby! Bird/monkey seeing) - the room, awesome! We got a suite in one of the towers, very spacious, silent and comfy… really great! (it's a Westin after all!) - good to great food! Great lunch options at the pool area (Caracola) as well as the Pizzeria place – the reviews about the pizzas are true! For dinner, I was disappointed by Cauri (and its fake 'french' recipes – "chevre chaud" means "hot goat cheese"; and accras are a very different thing…) – but quite impressed with the others, most notably Candelas and Faisanella. Also, while deserts could be improved at all places, the Nutella candy is a cool trick we enjoyed! As for the bar, drinks (with a bit of direction) are really nice, including some fresh fruit juice options. - finally, I wanted to recognize some awesome staff members who made our stay so much more enjoyable, with top of the list Mario and Errol – thanks a lot to both of you! Thanks as well to Cyntia, Israel, Roger, Andre, Raul and Jose – very nice to chat and be cared for with genuine people! Cheers! April 27, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Phipp Very pretty hotel and friendly staff Just came back from a 5 day visit with my family. The resort offers many choices for activities and the pool is really nice. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful but we had an issue with dining reservations like so many others. There is a nice selection of restaurants and food/drinks are good but there is an issue making dinner reservations. Upon arrival, we were advised to make dinner reservations for the days we will be staying, but that was impossible because the restaurants were full and not taking additional reservations. We discussed this with several staff members and after multiple frustrating conversations they were able to obtain reservations for all nights except for our first but the restaurants and times were not our choice. We accepted these reservations because we were just happy to have them, we did not want to have a buffet for dinner. This is a big issue and Westin needs to seriously address this problem. Our Junior Suite was nice but not well thought out for travelers. There is not enough adequate storage shelves in the closet to accommodate 3 people. and although there are night stands and two desks in the room, none are with drawers to allow you to store personal items or accommodate for the lack of closet shelves. There needs to be more hooks in the bathroom area and better placement of towel racks. This may sound picky but when you are traveling and you have a large room, you want to have your personal items accessible and not all shoved into a small number of shelves or left in luggage because of lack of storage. The room is large but just not well planned out for travelers. Spa service and their help was very nice. April 14, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by GanBal Awesome Stay One of the best stays we have had. Courteous staff, well-maintained resort, great pool, terrific restaurants and a beautiful golf course - all make for a great all-inclusive vacation. April 13, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Singhfamily Luxurious Relaxation Just ended a 7 day stay at this wonderful resort with my kids. We had a great time. weather was wonderful but it was the caring staff and great resort amenities that made the trip. Room service was amazing and anything we needed was kindly provided ...without any expectation of tips. A great selection of restaurants (Cauri was our favorite) made each night different. The location is secluded so the excursions require long bus rides but are well organized and safe. Our only disappointment was the recommended transport company Rizo- although we spent $500 to go from San Jose to the westin and back...we got delays, lack of air conditioning and poorly kept interior. As a platinum guest I felt I got the extra attention we look for. Would love to come back soon! April 11, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Steve10abc Great property! Just returned from a week at Playa Conchal and had a great time. The property is beautiful and the staff outstanding! We did several excursions while we were there which gave us a sense of the surroundings off the property. Fishing was fun and the zip line and water slide combo was a blast. We also rented jet skis and ATVs on the beach in front of the hotel. The service at the hotel was outstanding. Giovanny at the Abalone bar was a pleasure and Israel our waiter at the Italian restaurant were both top notch! The only glaring shortfall of the hotel is the dinner reservation process which many other reviewers have commented on. It is a bit frustrating and confusing and seems like something a Starwood propriety should be able to address much better. Overall a great experience in a fabulous setting. Highly recommend!

Can a 240 V power supply work in an iMac G5 Model A1076?
I have had the disaster of bringing my iMac G5 (model A1076) from San Francisco to London UK, not knowing that the machine only had a 120 V power supply unit in it, so it blew up - big spark, big bang - when it was plugged in to the English electricity system.
Now I am attempting to figure out if it will work with a new 240 volt power supply unit (IF one could be found to fit it) or if I have to get a 120 volt power supply unit sent over from the USA and find an external voltage control gadget to bring the power down from the normal 240 volts delivered here in this country. I am talking about the INTERNAL POWER SUPPLY unit, not the plugs!
Or do I have to decide that it is now dead and gone and the only thing to do is find someone who can get the data off somehow and work with a rented machine or buy a new one (not desirable here in UK where prices are about double what they are in the US)? This seems the only other option to get working again....
Any ideas/tips/suggestions? Will be very grateful as this is really a big bummer and I need files off this machine ASAP.
|Sep 6, 2009, 12:45 PM
thoughts in no particular order;
don't know the model number you mention - but am surprised the psu was 120v only - thought all macs were 120-250V. Then again maybe it's laptops only.
I'd think you could put in a uk supply and it would work - but plan on £100 +. At least they were around that, when i looked a while back for my own G5 ALS.
if you need quick access to the files, you can just remove the hard drive from the imac and install it in an external case. But then you'd need another mac to plug it into.
if the price difference us to uk is v high and you go the new mac route - can you get someone to ship you one from the US as a 'gift'? It might still be more cost effective even after paying the taxes. You'd need to be sure the psu was universal tho.
If it were me and I was looking for a quick fix, then i'd get a new macbook from the refurb store on apple uk (or the US gift route). I'd get the hard drive out of the imac and install it in an external case. I'd ship the imac home without the hard drive and deal with it when i left the uk - your post seems to suggest a short stay with the rental comment.
it might cost you more but it'll be the simplest.
|Sep 6, 2009, 01:59 PM
Thanks very much for this contribution. I know about getting the HD out of the iMac and then plugging into another machine, so yes, the plan is now to compare prices of fixing the old iMac or getting something at a lower cost here to keep me going while I am here - an unknown duration at this point in time.
Thanks again
|Sep 6, 2009, 03:57 PM
here's some sites i'd bookmarked previously when i had a problem with my imac/power supply;
some more thoughts;
if you're looking to keep costs down and you're technically minded then you could go the hackintosh route for a replacement.
There's always ebay for a used replacement - not a risk i'd take with a G5 but might be inclined to go for an Intel as think they have generally been more reliable. Anyway i'd definitely do some reading on whatever particular model i was looking at - to make sure there weren't any known issues.
I have no experience of what happens when you plug in a US power supply to the uk mains - but i wonder if there's a chance you might have damaged another part of the imac - hopefully you might just have blown a fuse! Maybe someone else with some knowledge can chime in here.

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher admits this could be his last season.
The 34-year-old has played more than 700 games for the club he joined as a schoolboy, including over 500 in the Premier League, but his contract expires next summer and it appears increasingly unlikely that he will be offered a new deal.
"There is a chance that I will retire at the end of the season," Carragher told the Daily Express. "It is the last season of my contract and the club have not said anything to me yet.
"I am open-minded, but I would not play on if I was killing the team when I played. I would not be hanging on for money or anything.
"And I would not go anywhere else. It is Liverpool or nothing for me."

We know that Mmusi isn't afraid to stand up to Jacob Zuma, given his eloquent attack in the aftermath of the State of the Nation fiasco, but he may yet have a few more tricks up his sleeve.
So what should we expect this time around then? Will we see absolute chaos or have parliament learnt their lesson from the debacle that was SONA? Only time will tell.
They say hell hath no fury like a woman scorned and it seems Jacob Zuma may have found that out the hard way after reports have surfaced that one of his wives poisoned him.
Jacob Zuma dropped a bombshell Sunday when he claimed he had never been nervous in his life before. Roll up your sleeves Julius, there is work to be done.
Nkandla has been the epicenter of controversy for the past few years and has caused chaos in the National Assembly recently. Guess what? It's about to cause a whole lot more…
Will Zuma's Nkandla woes be answered when his #bestfriendforever throws a fundraiser for him?
I don't know about you, but your average South African definitely cannot afford to pay for Nkandla on behalf of Zuma… Apparently this guy wants to though…
Nkandla story heats up. Hong Kong protests fizzle. Driver undergoes brain surgery following F1 crash. Bitcoin suffers massive crash. Maddie McCann internet troll found dead. Facebook introducing mobile payments..
Jacob Zuma might not be able to add in the Disney castle he has always dreamed about, now that he has to possibly pay back a tiny percentage of the money… Shame.
Please enjoy these images of Khulubuse Zuma and bride Fikisiwe Dlamini having a little razzle at the country's expense.
The Mail & Guardian have performed a tongue-in-cheek investigation that undoubtedly proves that public protector Thuli Madonsela is, in fact, a spy
At least someone in a high position is questioning Jacob Zuma and his Nkandla scandal. Sadly, Thuli Madonsela is not finding this to be the most easy task.
The EFF and the ANC almost had a dance off in the National Assembly yesterday. It ended with police being called to control the situation. Please enjoy this video on how to behave properly as an MP.
Jacob Zuma's Nkandla-gate has caused such a stir that he has responded via song, taking on Jay Z's "99 Problems" in his own unique way.
Jacob Zuma has finally submitted his response to Thuli Madonsela's Nkandla report and he made all 20 pages of it public yesterday afternoon. Here are the key points – he only gets to them in the last 3 pages!
Okay – so President Zuma has now officially entered himself into the 'unofficial' competition known as , " World Leader Most Capable Of Insulting The Population's Intelligence" . This guy really doesn't get it, does he? The media has been awash with non-stop criticism about the obscene amount of money being thrown into Zuma's Nkandla [...]
George Clooney engaged. ANC shuts down Nkandla committee. Paul Simon arrested. South Korean PM resigns over ferry disaster. Max Clifford guilty of teenage girl sexual assault. Morgan Tsvangirai suspended by own party. LA Clippers owner's racist comments dominate US news. Billy Joel talks heroin.
Public Protector Thuli Madonsela's Nkandla report has a lot of ANC figures and lawyers coming out of the woodwork in Jacob Zuma's defence. But she's not scared. Madonsela thinks that people should stop protecting the president as if he was a "child or a victim."
Beleaguered president Jacob Zuma has indicated that his R246 million homestead in Nkandla, KwaZulu-Natal could face listing on the real estate market in the coming months, as the president struggles to raise the millions owed to South African tax payers following the construction of a swimming pool, amphitheatre, and chicken run at his private home.
Apple v. Samsung – it's getting messy. ANC tying itself into Nkandla knots. House music legend dies. Durban bidding for games. Hollande's party loses election. Zuma withdraws from AU-EU summit after accepting. Gwyneth and Chris' are hiding secrets. Is Miranda Kerr bisexual?
Jacob Zuma has responded to a damning report into the construction of his R246 million Nkandla homestead by the Public Protector, who found that Zuma had "benefited unduly" from the construction of non-security features including a swimming pool, amphitheatre, kraal, cattle culvert and chicken run, and that he ought to pay back the money used in their construction.
With the report by the Public Protector finally out, let's take a walk down memory lane and see where R246 million ended up being spent. Nkandla's humble beginnings to the extravagant compound that it has become, have been documented in a series of photographs.
The "Secure in Comfort" report by the Public Protector is over 400 pages of devastating findings, that will in most likelihood be used as loo paper by the government. The ANC refuses to see it at all. Even if the results end up being benign, as journalist Richard Poplank puts it, Zuma "will be forever remembered as a thief, a fool, and a Zulu man who was incapable of managing the affairs of his kraal."
The report by Public Protector Thuli Madonsela has found President Jacob Zuma has misled Parliament when he claimed the Zuma family paid for the costs of buildings in Nkandla.
French First Lady in hospital following husband's affair. License to kill near-extinct black rhino sold. Cannibalism as CAR implodes. Rubber bullets and tear gas in Nkandla. Wolrd First Bitcoin insured vault launches. Tina Fey grills Leo at Globes.
While the ANC was busy pointing fingers at Thuli Madonsela for leaking the Nkandla report, South Africa slipped to its lowest-ever spot on the global corruption charts.
Public protector, Thuli Madonsela, has come through with the goods yet again. This time, they come in the form of three damning reports that expose gross misconduct, deceit, unlawful acts and outright corruption at the highest level of government.
Thuli Madonsela, you biscuit. The public protector's provisional Nkandla report has found that our president has "derived substantial personal benefit from works that exceeded security needs,"and must repay the state.
In what is yet another flagrant disregard of the government's supposed ban on publishing pictures of JZ's Nkandla residence, Eye Witness News has unearthed photos that reveal just how much work has gone into our president's compound.
The government security cluster has advised members of the media and the public that publishing pictures of Jacob Zuma's Nkandla homestead could lead to arrest. Thus far the reply has been a resounding "bring it on". We'd like to add our voice to that chorus.

UK- Based Glow Digital Media Closes $1.3Million Seed Round Of Financing; Expands To U.S. Market And Selects Los Angeles As Its New U.S. Headquarters.
Los Angeles, CA, Jan 31, 2013 (PRWeb.com via COMTEX) -- Glow Digital Media, a provider of Facebook ad technology solutions to marketers, announced today that it has received $1.3m in seed funding. Glow's proprietary social ads platform, Glow Machine, helps direct response advertisers build and manage their Facebook advertising campaigns to reach their target audiences more effectively.
Founded in 2009, Glow has experienced rapid growth, most recently spurred on by the announcement in September 2012 that the firm has been named one of only twelve Facebook Strategic Preferred Marketing Developers (SPMD) worldwide, the highest accreditation Facebook gives to marketing developers. According to CEO Damian Routley, "Our status as one of Facebook's strategic preferred marketing developers is testament to the nimble and innovative team at Glow and will be one of the key drivers of growth for us in 2013." Glow's latest funding has not only enabled it to hire key new senior executives in the UK, but to expand into the U.S. marketplace by opening a new regional headquarters in Los Angeles. The new headquarters is headed by David Wamsley, who is both an ad tech pioneer and a 15-year veteran in the high-tech startup world. In the late 90's, he founded Adauction.com, the first online advertising exchange to offer dynamic pricing and bidding for digital media, and campsix, a venture backed, full-service incubator that focused on SaaS startups. Most recently, David was a co-founder of GravityEight, a health and wellbeing consumer internet application that integrated with Nike Plus, Fitbit, the ZEO Sleep Machine, and the Facebook API.
After over three years of continuous development, the Glow Machine has become the ideal platform for large direct response advertisers, as well as the digital agencies who serve that clientele.
Glow has bolstered their senior team with key positions overseeing Data Science, Business Development, Product Management as well as David Wamsley in the role of VP, Sales & Strategic Partnerships, US.
ABOUT GLOW DIGITAL MEDIA Glow sells a self-serve license for its Facebook advertising platform, or is available as a fully-managed solution. Currently it provides services to over 80 sophisticated performance customers and global agencies around the world, including King.com, Omnicom, Blue Ant Media, Bacardi, Kraft, and Mercedes Benz. Glow is a privately owned and independent company with industry expertise in Gaming, eCommerce, Financial Services, Travel, and Automotive.

Bobby Fong is president of Butler University.
- Filed Under
The president of Butler University, joined by college presidents nationwide, is calling for lawmakers to consider lowering the legal drinking age from 21 to 18 as a way to discourage binge drinking on campus.
Groups dedicated to fighting drunken driving said that they were strongly opposed to the idea and that lowering the drinking age would lead to more fatal car crashes.
"I wish that college presidents would attempt to deal with the problem rather than ignore it," said Jim Noffsinger, Indiana coordinator for SADD -- Students Against Drunk Drivers. "The (age-limit) law has been heralded ...

Wes Welker on playing for Bill Belichick: 'It was just kind of hard'
During Wes Welker's free agency this offseason, he knew he was going to sign with one of two teams: New England or Denver. Apparently it turns out one of the advantages for Denver was that they're not coached by Bill Belichick.
Welker, who's on the cover of Sports Illustrated this week, said one of the reasons he left New England was because Bill Belichick "got on him in a way he never had before, admonishing him in front of the team," SI's Chris Ballard wrote.
First Peyton Manning made a rap video, now he's on the cover of Sports Illustrated. That's a strong week: http://t.co/XGNPOha4WY— John Breech (@johnbreech) August 7, 2013
"It was just kind of hard," Welker told SI, via the Boston Globe. "One of those deals where you have to endure him, put up with him… But he does it to everybody, it's the way he is."
Another subject Welker touched on: the Patriots' media policy.
New England's players are known for giving vanilla, nondescript answers to almost every question asked and that's by design. That's part of Belichick's media policy, a policy that seems to still haunt Welker.
"When I'm answering questions from the Denver media, I'm not worried about what the Broncos' people are going to think," Welker said. "I'm worried about what Belichick will think. Isn't that crazy?"
Belichick apparently isn't the only demanding person in the Patriots organization, quarterback Tom Brady is too. Especially when Welker first joined the team in 2007.
"He was very intense, wanted it done a certain way and was like, 'You can't do it a different way,'" Welker said, describing his first-year with the team.
And as you might assume, Welker's had to adjust a little going from Brady to Peyton Manning.
"In New England, if the middle of the field was closed, I'd run a seam route," Welker said. "It's something I've been doing for six years now, so I have to teach my brain to do it the way [Manning is] expecting me to do it. At the end of the day you run it the way he wants it, or he won't throw it to you."
Welker will have a chance to tell all of this to Belichick in person on Nov. 24 when the Broncos travel to New England.

Sea-Level Rise from the Late 19th to the Early 21st Century
- John A. Church,
- Neil J. White
- … show all 2 hide
We estimate the rise in global average sea level from satellite altimeter data for 1993–2009 and from coastal and island sea-level measurements from 1880 to 2009. For 1993–2009 and after correcting for glacial isostatic adjustment, the estimated rate of rise is 3.2 ± 0.4 mm year−1 from the satellite data and 2.8 ± 0.8 mm year−1 from the in situ data. The global average sea-level rise from 1880 to 2009 is about 210 mm. The linear trend from 1900 to 2009 is 1.7 ± 0.2 mm year−1 and since 1961 is 1.9 ± 0.4 mm year−1. There is considerable variability in the rate of rise during the twentieth century but there has been a statistically significant acceleration since 1880 and 1900 of 0.009 ± 0.003 mm year−2 and 0.009 ± 0.004 mm year−2, respectively. Since the start of the altimeter record in 1993, global average sea level rose at a rate near the upper end of the sea level projections of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's Third and Fourth Assessment Reports. However, the reconstruction indicates there was little net change in sea level from 1990 to 1993, most likely as a result of the volcanic eruption of Mount Pinatubo in 1991.

Geax Tubular MTB Rim
0 Reviews | Write a Review
With more and more racer-types opting for tubular wheel set ups, it is inevitable that this craze becomes standard for XC events and XC trail riders looking for the optimal ride quality. Tubular wheels roll better, corner better, grip better and allow the rider to run a lower tire pressure without the risk of pinch flatting. Until now, the only rims available for 26" tubular tires have been super expensive all carbon rims that are hard to come by. Geax now introduces their tubular rim, designed for their Saguaro tubular tire (the Dugast Rhino MTB as well as other tubular MTB tires work as well) but still affordable enough to make that Tubie MTB wheel set a reality. Take advantage of this great price and jump on the MTB tubular bandwagon! Available in 24, 28, 32 holes. 26" only.
