Female impersonation need say nothing about sexual identity, but it has for a long time been almost an institutionalized aspect of gay male culture.
Although sparse in images documenting the gay community, pre-Stonewall gay male photography blurs the boundaries between art, erotica, and social history.
Given the historic stigma around making, circulating, and possessing overtly homoerotic images, the visual arts have been especially important for providing a socially sanctioned arena for depicting the naked male body and suggesting homoerotic desire.
Independent films that aggressively assert homosexual identity and queer culture, the New Queer Cinema can be seen as the culmination of several developments in American cinema.
Renowned photographer, teacher, critic, editor, and curator, Minor White created some of the most interesting photographs of male nudes of the second half of the twentieth century, but did not exhibit them for fear of scandal.
The first international fashion superstar, Halston dressed and befriended some of America's most glamorous women.
An artistic movement that grew out of Dadaism and flourished in Europe shortly after World War I, Surrealism embraced the idea that art was an expression of the subconscious.
Film, stage, and television actor Paul Winfield was openly gay in his private life, but maintained public silence about his homosexuality.
On April 2, 2013, Uruguay's Senate passed marriage equality legislation, placing the country on target to become South America's second nation to permit same-sex marriage nation-wide. Despite fierce opposition from the Roman Catholic Church, the bill passed both houses of parliament by overwhelming votes. The House of Representatives passed the legislation on a 81 to 6 vote in December; the vote in the Senate was 23 to 8.
As Michael Lavers reports in the Washington Blade, the Senate passed the bill after several hours of debate.
During the debate Senator Rafael Michelini compared the extension of marriage rights to same-sex couples in Uruguay as a "profound modification" for society that one could compare to the abolition of slavery and the law that established an eight hour work day.
Before it becomes law, the bill passed by the Senate must return to the House of Representatives to reconcile some minor differences and then on to the desk of President José Mujica, who has pledged to sign it.
If the bill becomes law, Uruguay will become the second country in South America--after its neighbor, Argentina--to provide equal marriage rights to all its same-sex couples.
Mexican gay and lesbian couples have been able to marry in Mexico City since 2010, while a recent ruling by the country's high court legalized same-sex marriage in Oaxaca and promises to establish marriage equality nationally there as well.
Same-sex couples in Colombia will automatically receive full marriage rights in June if the country's lawmakers do not act upon a court ruling that orders them to legislate the matter. Colombia's Senate is considering a measure that would legalize nuptials for gays and lesbians, though the legislation is not expected to pass.
Same-sex marriages are also recognized in some states of Brazil.
Uruguay has been in the vanguard of progressive social change in South America. In 2008, it became the first Latin American country to adopt a national civil union law, the Ley de Unión Concubinaria. The law permits both same-sex and opposite-sex couples to enter into a civil union after living together for at least five years. Couples in civil unions are entitled to most of the benefits that married couples are afforded, including social security entitlements, inheritance rights, and joint ownership of goods and property. In addition, same-sex couple are permitted joint adoption rights.
In December, when the House of Representatives passed the marriage equality bill, Deputy Nicolás Núñez said "We are ending decades of institutionalized discrimination from the state."
"Today, we are a step further toward becoming a more democratic and just society," Álvaro Queiruga of the glbtq advocacy group Colectivo Ovejas Negras said then. "The LGBT population will no longer be denied an essential right such as this one. We are very happy today, and this will empower us to continue our fight for a better Uruguay without second class citizens due to their sexual orientation or gender identity."
The video below reports on the ruling party's endorsement of marriage equality in August.

Number of employees
Mercury Asset Management plc was a leading British investment management business. It was listed on the London Stock Exchange and was a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index.
The Company was established in 1969 when S. G. Warburg & Co., the investment bank, won an investment management contract and set up Warburg Investment Management to execute it. In 1987 25% of the business was floated on the London Stock Exchange as Mercury Asset Management.
Carol Galley, one its leading managers, was credited with facilitating the takeovers by Granada of both London Weekend Television in 1994 and Forte Group in 1996.[1] At its peak more than half the companies on the FTSE 100 used Mercury Asset Management for investment management purposes.[2]
In 1995 the Company achieved full independence when S. G. Warburg & Co. sold its investment banking business to Swiss Bank Corporation and the residue of S. G. Warburg & Co. became a subsidiary of Mercury Asset Management.[3] The Company was acquired by Merrill Lynch for £3.1bn in 1997.[4][5]

LONDON - The buzz of the bumblebee has always been as much a part of the British summer as Wimbledon and candy floss.
But the familiar sound may soon become only a fond memory. Experts say Britain's bumblebee population is quickly vanishing as farmers use more pesticides and plow up pristine wildflower meadows.
Already, three of the 25 species of bumblebees native to the United Kingdom are extinct, with as many as eight others in serious danger of disappearing unless quick action is taken.
As a result, a top bumblebee expert, Dave Goulson at the University of Stirling in Scotland, launched the Bumblebee Conservation Trust, a pressure group designed to save the bumblebee, in late May. In the first week, the effort reaped 500 memberships at a price of nearly $30 a year.
The members' first mission: to track down the elusive bilberry bumblebee, often called the most beautiful of all the British bumblebees because of its mostly orange abdomen.
The trust also has urged gardeners to use more traditional native plants such as rosemary, bluebells and geraniums, which bumblebees find more alluring than unfamiliar imports. Most gardens should be able to lure at least six species of bumblebee if stocked with plants amenable to the creatures, it says.
Ben Darvill, an ecologist and co-founder of the Bumblebee Conservation Trust, said there are many reasons to pay attention to the plight of the bumblebee.
"Bees are very important everywhere as pollinators and, from a commercial point of view, there are lots of agricultural crops that would suffer reduced crop yields without bees," he said. Examples are broad, field and runner beans and also raspberries, he said.
Darvill said there's a massive amount the public can do to help the bumblebee effort.
"Just by recording where you see different species of bumblebee is a big help," he said.
An editorial in the Independent, a British newspaper that's supporting the bumblebee effort, chronicled the many reasons why Britons have such an affinity for the bumblebee.
"They're furry and appear cuddly. They're obviously hardworking. And they're as much a part of our gardens as lawns," it said.
It's not just Britain that's troubled by a dwindling bumblebee population. In North America, too, the numbers appear to be in decline.
"Many farmers in North America are looking to bumblebees to take over as key pollinators of crops now that honeybees are declining in abundance," said Richard Primack, professor of plant ecology at Boston University.
"However, bumblebee populations are also apparently declining, probably due to the loss of their nesting sites, increasing use of pesticides, and possibly new parasites.

Adele – Set Fire To The Rain [MUSIC VIDEO]
Set Fire To The Rain is the fourth single off her very successful second album, 21.
Set Fire To The Rain is the fourth single off her very successful second album, 21.
Adele is on the road to recovery following vocal cord surgery last November, and will be attending the 2012 Grammy awards ceremony in February. Fingers crossed she'll be well enough to sing!
Kesha became famous for her AutoTuned party anthems, but the beard enthusiast loves rock 'n' roll — and has a plan to save it.
"I feel like I don't necessarily agree, but people say that rock and roll is dead, and it is my mission and my goal to resurrect it in the form of my pop music," Kesha told MTV News. "That's the goal. We'll see what happens. That's a very ambitious and lofty goal, but that's my goal."
December is the time when we wrap up the year and take a look back. Every year, DJ Earworm puts together a video mashup that sums up the year in music, and he has just released his 'United State of Pop (World Go Boom)' for 2011.
Besides Katy Perry and Rihanna, the mix features people like Adele, LMFAO, Lady Gaga, and other pop stars of the past year (but no Bieber!)
On New Year's Eve, we'll be playing back the Top 94 songs of 2011, as voted by you. Just to tease you a little bit, I am offering up my 5 favorite songs from this year.
It's human-rights organization Amnesty International's 50th anniversary and to celebrate 80 artists, including Adele, Sting, Elvis Costello, My Chemical Romance, Ke$ha and Miley Cyrus, are covering tunes from the Bob Dylan catalog.
In a week full of strong new entries that included Rihanna's 'Talk That Talk,' a month-old holiday record from Michael Buble tops the Billboard 200. The pop crooner's 'Christmas' album inches up to No. 1, becoming his third chart-topper.
Adele's live CD/DVD 'Live at the Royal Albert Hall' doesn't hit store shelves until tomorrow, Nov. 29. But fans can check out a lengthy preview of the performance right now courtesy of Vevo.
If you were too sleepy — or sane! — to deal with the mall this weekend, fret not! There are plenty of online deals for all the music fans on your list. Viva Cyber Monday!

This a great product for horse feet. I used this on my mare (she passed away in 2007) and her feet looked great! She was 26 years old and her feet were in great shape! I think this was part of the reason her feet looked so nice.
Pros: Great for horse feet!

best $5 or whatever amount it is I've ever spent on a hair product! I used to use this years ago, then stopped, repurchased it recently and wondered why I went so long without using it. It's inexpensive, the spray bottle distributes the product to my hair evenly, it smells good, and adds moisture back into my hair while making the straightener process easier. I used the CHI one previously, and this is so much better than that. I will purchase this forever

I absolutely love this product! I've gone through 5 or 6 bottles of it and have no intentions of finding a new heat protectant. It not only protects your hair from harmful heat when blow drying or curling/straightening but also helps hold whatever style you are using heat to create. It also has a nice smell. The mist is fairly fine, so it doesn't soak your hair when you spray it. It also makes it easy to evenly distribute.

My HG! Goodness, where would I be without this? Makes my hair soft, and applies evenly. The product is never sticky like some other heat tamers (yes I'm looking at you Herbal Essences). The lock on the nozzel is very handy. & cheap for such quality! Just amazing.

Begemann/Emmrich Triumph On Home Soil
Dusseldorf, Germany
by ATP Staff|
German pairing Andre Begemann and Martin Emmrich captured their second ATP World Tour team title on Saturday as they triumphed on home soil at the Power Horse Cup. The unseeded duo defeated third seeds Treat Huey and Dominic Inglot 7-5, 6-2 in the final in Dusseldorf.
"It's my home town; I live 20 minutes from this club. It's a very special moment for us, especially me," said Emmrich. "Winning a title like this in Germany is just awesome.
"It was a really slow start, I was really nervous. We got broken first game. But we came back straight away and then we got confident with the crowd at our back. We played really good tennis and kind of destroyed them in the second set."
Begemann and Emmrich won their first title in October 2012 at the Erste Bank Open in Vienna (d. Knowle/Polasek) and were runners-up at the start of the 2013 season at the Aircel Chennai Open (l. to Paire/Wawrinka).
The 28-year-old Begemann improved to a 2-1 finals record, while Emmrich, also 28, levelled his record at 2-2, having also reached the 2012 Belgrade final with Andreas Siljestrom.
"I'm overwhelmed," said Begemann. "I can't describe my feelings right now, because it's always special to play in front of my Dad and all my family. [This club is] very special, especially winning the title with Martin here."
In the first meeting between the two teams, the Germans converted four of their 10 break point chances and won 81 per cent of points on first serve to claim victory in 68 minutes.
Huey and Inglot dropped to a 1-3 finals record together. Last year they captured the title at the Citi Open in Washington (d. Anderson/Querrey) and reached the finals in Houston (l. to Blake/Querrey) and Basel (l. to Nestor/Zimonjic).

Been here? Rate It!
Saltwater Cowboys: Worth the visit!!
This is a very rustic building on the edge of the intracoastal. It used to be an old fish camp and it's surrounded by saltwater marshes. The atmosphere is WONDERFUL and the food is great!
Favorite Dish: I had the Jambalaya......YUMMMMMMMMMM
Saltwater Cowboy's: Marshland Haute Cuisine
This place goes to all kinds of extremes:
It is extremely hard to find: down at the end of an otherwise residential street.
The atmosphere is extremely 'white cracker' fishing camp (there are pictures of huge 'gators caught by locals and tanned rattler skins on the walls).
The food is extremely refined,tastes excellent, and is reasonably priced (nowhere else have I ever had apple vinegarette salad with walnuts and raisins- very tasty!)
Favorite Dish: Everything is good. Their fried seafood is a highlight.
This is also the place to try 'gator tail which is offered as an appetizer (think 'gator McNuggets).
Saltwater Cowboys: Where are the Gators?
This place suits it's name perfectly! An old fishing cabin set on the marshes, you'd expect to see some gators and an old cowboy singing the blues. No gators but the jazzy blue-sy music in the place sets the ambiance.
Decorated with aligator skin and stuffed possum, very cute in a creepy sort of way!
Josh, our waiter was super friendly and the service was fantastic!
Favorite Dish: I had the jambalya and oyster (oh god, those oysters were DELICIOUS!) but i also sampled the cucumber fish and blackened fish. Everything was yummy so I highly recommend that you take a few friends you you can eat off their plates!
Saltwater Cowboys: Great Food & Service
Love location of this place, on the Marsh, great sunset view. Food is wonderful, fun menu. Servers were really nice. You can call ahead as not to have to wait an hour when you get there. Casual attire and a must see place. It used to be an old hunting lodge.
They need more parking spaces, you will have to wait in your car while waiting for someone to leave before going in. Everything else is great.
Favorite Dish: Seafood, everything
A "Don't Miss" Seafood Experience!
If there is such a thing as a quintessential seafood restaurant… this is it! Salt Water Cowboy's is everything you would want a seafood restaurant to be! It is located about 20-25 minutes from downtown historic St. Augustine – drive south on A1A, turn right onto Dondanville Road, just before Crescent Beach. You pass through a quaint residential area, and the restaurant is at the end of the road, overlooking the natural beauty of a saltwater marsh. They welcome "call-ahead reservations" since the wait can be rather long, especially during peak dinner times and in the summers. We called ahead and only had to wait about 5 minutes once we arrived (around 8:30 on a weeknight). The menu has a "cowboy" flair, with an "Open-Pit Barbecue" menu section, including ribs that looked really good. They also feature items you don't see on your average "tourist" menu – a type of cuisine they list under the heading "Florida Cracker Corner," which includes cooter (soft-shell turtle), gator tail, and frog legs (none of which are of my choice, but if they are yours, these are most likely among the best). All the seafood they offer is prepared either fried (a really light, homemade breading), blackened (not too spicy, and it complements the seafood well), or baked. For the most part, whatever type of seafood you are craving, they've got it – scallops, shrimp, fish (including a "catch of the day"), steamed oysters, crawfish, clam strips, and soft-shell crab. I ordered the "Three-Way Shrimp" the first time we went (we went twice in a short 5-night trip!) – 4 fried shrimp, 4 BBQ shrimp, and 4 stuffed shrimp filled with blue crab meat and smothered in this amazing peppery-cream sauce! We also ordered a ½ bucket of crawfish, which was boiled in a spicy, salty broth (they were good, just not my favorite). The atmosphere was lively, fun, and cozy – you really do feel like you're at a Florida fish camp with the hardwood floors, twig furniture, tin ceilings, and warm lighting. The second time we visited I had their "award-winning" white clam chowder – awesome! – not too creamy and thick, with lots of clam, potatoes, and okra. They also have a spicy red clam chowder, if that's more your style. I heard their key lime pie was a "standard" to measure others by, but we did not have any room left for dessert! You must add this restaurant to your dining experience while in St. Augustine – it's casual, fun, and you won't leave hungry!
Favorite Dish: I ordered the "Three-Way Shrimp" the first time we went (we went twice in a short 5-night trip!) – 4 fried shrimp, 4 BBQ shrimp, and 4 stuffed shrimp filled with blue crab meat and smothered in this amazing peppery-cream sauce! It was nice to have a variety -- and, if it's shrimp you want that night, this is the best "fix" for that!

Great food, and excellent location! This seafood restaurant, with the funny name, serves up some great dishes. We tried Jambalaya and a Blackened Catfish Dish, good stuff!!

Luckily for hotel Kastoria, there are not many other hostels in Thessaloniki. Otherwise this place with cleanliness worse than mountain cottage would not survive for too long.

Location is privileged, close to the best spots in Thessalonika. Personnel is very attentious, they gave us all the information on best places to go in the city, and gave as a map. Building is quite old, and they don´t give you towels nor soap for having bath, but water is very hot and nice showers.

Arizona Cardinals
Beanie Wells: 'Excited' to be back after long absence
When Beanie Wells went down with a turf toe injury back in Week 3 against the Eagles, times were a little more cheerful in the Valley.
After a seven-game absence from the field, Wells will be back in action Sunday against the St. Louis Rams. It couldn't have come sooner.
The Cardinals haven't won in nearly two months and have a lot of youth and inexperience starting on offense.
"Any time, whether you win or lose, it's hard watching from the sidelines," Wells said. "You feel bad. I'm no different. I felt like I could have helped out."
Coming into Week 12, the Cardinals rank No. 30 in the league in rushing offense (82.3 yards per game).
So, Wells should give the running back core an instant boost.
"It feels good and I'm excited about [my return]," said Wells. "It's been a long seven, eight weeks and I'm ready to go out there and play football.
Wells' return comes as part of a new league rule implemented before the 2012-2013 season. Each team is now allowed to put one player on the IR/designated to return list with an opportunity to active that player eight or more weeks later.
Following Wells' injury against the Eagles, second-year back Ryan Williams went down with a season-ending shoulder injury two weeks later in a loss to St. Louis.
While LaRod Stephens-Howling (coming off a career-high 127 yards rush) and William Powell have been admirable substitutes, it's no small task trying to replace a 1,000-yard rusher like Wells.
He's back now, though, and ready to fill the void left from his absence, especially in short-yardage.
"That's one of the places we've struggled in over the past few weeks," said Wells of the team's inability to capitalize on short-yardage situations. "I certainly feel like one of the pieces to that puzzle to help us get going."
If there's anything that can help Wells shake off the rust early Sunday, it might just be his recent history against the Rams.
On Thanksgiving Weekend last season, the former first-round pick out of Ohio State ran for a career-high 228 yards and a touchdown in a 23-20 road win over St. Louis.
Before his injury, Wells had 29 carries for 76 yards.

9 arrested after deadly Tanzanian church bombing
ARUSHA, Tanzania—Tanzania has arrested three more people over a deadly church bombing, bringing to nine the number of suspects detained, including several Saudis, President Jakaya Kikwete said Tuesday.
"Nine suspects have now been arrested," Kikwete told reporters at Kilimanjaro International Airport near the northern city of Arusha where an attack on a church mass killed three on Sunday.
He was speaking after visiting some of the 64 wounded as well as the bereaved families.
Those arrested are five Tanzanians and four Saudis.
The bomb attack, which no group is known to have claimed yet, was described by Kikwete as "an act of terrorism" and was one of the worst such incidents to hit the east African country in years.
The president also urged Christians to continue attending church services every Sunday.
"If we don't do so, we will have given victory to those who carried out the attack," he said adding that the government will provide security around all places of worship.
None of those arrested have yet been charged, said Arusha's governor Magesa Mulongo.
Officials have given no indication as to who might have carried out the attack, but tensions have been high between Tanzania's Christian and Muslim communities in recent months.
"We must protect national unity, peace and tranquility of our country at any costs," Internal Affairs Minister Emmanuel Nchimbi said Monday.
The blast occurred outside Saint Joseph's Roman Catholic church in Arusha, a town popular with tourists visiting the Serengeti national park and snowcapped Mount Kilimanjaro.
The newly built church, in the Olasti district on the outskirts of Arusha, was celebrating its first ever mass at the time of the attack. The building was packed and faithful were sitting on benches outside.
The Vatican's ambassador to Tanzania, Archbishop Francisco Montecillo Padilla, was attending mass at the church but was not harmed.
Kikwete, who said he was "shocked and deeply saddened" by the incident, called on people to remain calm while police investigated.
In February, a Catholic priest was shot dead outside his church on the largely Muslim archipelago of Zanzibar, the second such killing in recent months. A church was also set on fire on Zanzibar in February.
In March, 52 followers of controversial Muslim cleric Sheikh Issa Ponda were jailed for a year over October riots in the commercial capital Dar es Salaam, sparked by rumours that a 12-year-old boy at a Christian school had urinated on a copy of the Koran.
Around half of Tanzanians are believed to be Christian, and around a third Muslim, although there are no official figures.
In neighboring Kenya—whose troops invaded southern Somalia in 2011, prompting warnings of revenge by the Al-Qaeda linked Shebab insurgents—several churches have been targeted in attacks similar to the Arusha blast.
While Tanzania does not have troops in Somalia, it is home to Islamist groups connected to radical groups in the wider region including the Shebab, according to United Nations experts.

From anti-Marcos pals to post-Edsa family
Four friends share passion from marches to menu
They have come a long way since their activist days in the years leading to the Edsa People Power Revolution.
From being comrades in the struggle against the Marcos regime, Annie Santoalla, Lan Mercado-Carreon, Joel Saracho and Egoy Bans are now lifelong friends and, more recently, business partners.
They were just in their early 20s when they crossed paths: Carreon, Santoalla and Bans were marching on the streets, while Saracho was a newspaper reporter covering human rights issues and the mounting protests against the dictatorship.
Santoalla was then with the Ecumenical Movement for Justice and Peace, while Carreon was with the Bagong Alyansang Makabayan (Bayan), whose members included Santoalla's future husband, Ed. Bans was then with a student Christian organization.
"Those shared experiences during those dark days kept our friendship alive to this day," Saracho recalled some 30 years later.
Their bond grew strong as Saracho not only covered the anti-Marcos protests for Malaya newspaper but also the fact-finding missions conducted by his three friends' respective organizations, mainly on human rights violations and the militarization in the countryside.
Carreon had already gone underground when the Edsa revolution, whose 27th anniversary is being marked today, broke out. Saracho recalled doing desk work for Malaya in a "safehouse" during the bloodless four-day upheaval.
That camaraderie didn't end with the fall of the Marcoses. In the first few post-Edsa years, the four friends again found themselves together bearing witness to history.
Following the January 1987 Mendiola Massacre that left 13 people dead in a farmers' march near Malacañang, they helped one another in coordinating indignation rallies and in issuing press statements.
Later that year, in September, student leader Lean Alejandro was shot dead outside the Bayan office in New Manila. "Ed and I heard the shots and were first on the scene when Lean was killed. Afterwards we marched to Annie's EMJP office on Balete Drive. We were all working together in arranging the funeral, etc.," Carreon recalled.
The following year, Carreon went missing for "nine months" after being abducted by a group of men who "suspected me of being a government spy." She said she was held captive, tortured and moved to different locations in Manila and Nueva Ecija province.
In an interview with the Philippine Daily Inquirer, she declined to give further details about her abductors, and just recalled with gratitude how her colleagues in the movement became "my search party."
But Santoalla was more forthright about this episode, saying her friend was abducted on suspicions that she was a government spy during the split in the Philippine Left, a period marked by "purges" which they thought already claimed the life of Carreon.
"We could have chosen to be selfish. But we really looked for her and pressured people to surface her," Santoalla recalled.
Carreon and Santoalla are now both with the Philippine office of the international antipoverty group Oxfam, while Bans is working in a government TV station. Saracho is now a theater and TV actor, having honed his stage skills as an occasional performer at Bayan rallies.
At one point, Santoalla and Saracho worked at the TV network ABS-CBN in different departments.
"But perhaps one more thing we have in common, aside from being activists, is that we all love to cook and eat. We were a bit crazy," Carreon said with a chuckle.
She said her daily "allowance" then from Bayan was P10 a day, so she and her colleagues would often pool their money to prepare their own meals.
With the passing of the years and their ties now extending to each other's families, the four friends have opened a new front for another common cause: Good food.
They are now co-owners of a small restaurant in UP Village, Quezon City, called "Ed's Table," a 30-seater place named in memory of Santoalla's husband who died of leukemia in 2011.
"We wanted to have a place where we can hang out and enjoy each other's company and relive stories from the old days, and where we can share our favorite pastime—eating. So we thought, why not put up a restaurant?" Santoalla said.
Ed's Table opened in October last year, offering mostly the so-called lutong-bahay fare. But more intimately for Saracho and company, it can be considered a testament to their enduring friendship, one that was forged in darker, stormier times.
"We are godparents to each other's children, and even the children are now friends with each other. We have an unspoken pact to take care of each other," Saracho said.
"We may not be family by blood. But we choose to be in this family, where the members look out for each other," Carreon added.

By Ted Sares - Photo by Tom Casino / Showtime -- I'm ready to give Joe [Calzaghe] the opportunity to draw the curtain on his great career in front of his family and friends and 70,000 fans," and "It's the best fight in the light heavyweight division between two undefeated champions. --Chad Dawson
Pound for pound, [Chad Dawson] is the best fighter in the world Floyd Mayweather Jr.
there is nothing offensively in a boxing ring that Chad Dawson cant do. --Al Bernstein
Most fans remember this one as a dominant 117-110 , 117-110, 118-109 UD for Bad Chad Dawson. 27-0, who fights out of New Haven, Connecticut.. He now holds the IBF and IBO light heavyweight titles and many are touting him as the next coming as well as a Joe Calzahes conqueror in waiting (which may be one and the same). Against a fading Antonio Tarver, he controlled the pace, landed most of the meaningful punches, and was more far more active as he methodically wore out the Magic Man. All in all, he turned in an outstanding performance in which he lived up to his nickname.
But in retrospect, I am not totally sold on the current hype that asserts Chad Dawson could be the best light heavyweight in the world for years to come. Yes, he is indeed a gifted fighter with a full array of skills including a fighters mentality, incredible hand-speed, the rare ability to launch multiple (and I mean multiple) punch combinations which results in an impressive punch output, and a solid defense. However, sometimes a fighters strengths can be his weaknesses.
The Twelfth Round
Tarver, though throwing one punch at time, started coming on in round eleven as Bad Chad showed a bit of fatigue. As the twelfth round unfolded, a story within a story almost occurred and exposed (at least to me) some weaknesses in Dawsons gaudy dossier.
At the bell, Chad came out strong, despite being told by his corner to be careful, and with 2:11 left in the round, scored a knockdown of sorts against Tarver, but it was more stumble than substance. He then went after the Magic Man with a fury. In so doing, he displayed a fighters mentality, but thats exactly what he should not have been doing. He had the fight locked up and should have known that tough as teak Tarver had never been stopped. Moreover, Dawson, though gritty, does not have that kind of late round power. His real mistake here, however, was that he did not have the smarts to stay out of harms way.
With a sense of urgency, Tarver opened up at around the 2.00 mark and seemed to stun the less experienced Dawson with some jolting shots. With 22 seconds remaining, he stalked Dawson down landing some uppercuts, but they lacked the pop to do much damage.
ESPN writer Dan Rafael said in an October 11, 2008 piece, in part: Dawson didn't finish him, but if there were any questions whatsoever about the outcome, he put them to rest in a dominant final round, when he dropped Tarver to his backside with a right hand.
I have reviewed the youtube ad nauseam and I did not quite see it like that. Yes, Dawson did win the round cleanly, but the manner in which he did it might just have given his future opponents something to work with.
Calzaghe and the Future
Chad Dawson has the tools to remain a great champion. He needs to know his limitations (unless he thinks he has none); he must work on his stamina (which also was an issue in his close and controversial decision win over Glen Johnson); and he needs to stay focused for each and very round. Bad Chad tends to fight in spurts and then takes time off to recoup his energy--unlike, say, a Joe Calzaghe or Glen Johnson who fight and fight and fight with no time offand as does another guy who lurks by the name of Adrian The Shark Diaconu.
If, in fact, Dawson is Calzaghes next opponent (assuming Joe fights on), will his style be made to order for the Pride of Wales? Will he be able to cope with Joes constant pressure (remember how Chad struggled in the Johnson fight), remarkable stamina (which allows for incredible punch volume which allows for taking an opponent out of his game), and his high ring IQ?
Time will tell if there is a new king in town who can clear out a light-heavyweight division seemingly full of aging legends.

IPhone -Meraki Network Insight Technology now Fingerprints Apple iPads
Raju Shanbhag
TMCnet Contributor
Assisting wireless network administrators in analyzing and supporting their networks,
, the cloud-based wireless networking company, has announced that its Network Insight technology now fingerprints
Wireless LAN products from Meraki help the customers to centrally manage access points from an intuitive browser interface. It also offers powerful features with point-and-click simplicity and the user does not have any controller hardware to buy, neither any software to install.
Offering application-level inspection on wireless traffic and capturing forensics information used by network administrators to analyze network activity and troubleshoot client issues, Network Insight is a technology unique to Meraki's Enterprise Wireless LAN. The technology identifies network events (DNS, ARP, HTTP, etc), and client information such as the NetBios name, MAC address, operating system, and device make and model.
"There is incredible excitement around the iPad, yet network administrators are eyeing it with caution," said Kiren Sekar, Product Marketing Manager at Meraki. "After the iPad's well-publicized DHCP renewal bug, as well as the potential for significant bandwidth consumption, administrators need visibility into their networks to see the iPad's impact and to support their users. Meraki's enhancements to Network Insight make this simple."
Network Insight distinguishes Apple (
) iPads from other devices running the iPhone OS, namely iPhones and iPod Touches, with its current announcement. Network Insight identified iPads as a significant driver of wireless traffic in use at MIT (
) CSAIL network (covering MIT's largest interdepartmental laboratory). iPads made up 9 percent of all iPhone OS devices on the network yet consumed more than half of the bandwidth for the week ending May 21st.
In November 2008, the company
its new Residential WiFi (
) Pack. This latest offering is expected to enable property managers and owners to provide broadband wireless access throughout apartment complexes, condominiums, hotels and more. The pack features Meraki's newest WiFi device, the Meraki Wall Plug, designed for deployment in large residential complexes. The demand for Wifi at an apartment, condominium and dormitory complexes is on the rise.

Rome, Italy
My Rating
Total disaster. We spent three hours shuffling through the museum Sistine and St Peters. One person fainted and another fell down some steps. The motivation seems to be 27000 visitors per day at 22 euros per head! The way this trip is organised would not be allowed in most other countries. They need to adopt an approach which extends external queues and minimises internal over crowding.
