"My trip to China proved to be an outstanding experience. Each location provided excellent learning and entertainment opportunities. The country was very impressive both in its deep history and in the huge modernization that has taken place in recent decades. The tour guides at each location were well informed and able to answer questions while also offering detailed information at all sites. It was a pleasure to be so well taken care of. The guides and drivers were always helpful. The meals on the tour were delicious and varied. I was pleased with the choice of restaurants. The hotels were comfortable and well located. I will recommend Kensington Tours. "

"We were so impressed with all aspects of the trip that Kensington arranged for us - even at short notice. The itinerary was perfectly planned, full of extra activities like riding an elephant and a water buffalo cart ride. The guides were wonderful in all the places we went and the travel was easy between locations. Vietnam is a wonderful destination and Angkor Wat is amazing too. We loved the overnight on the boat in Halong Bay and the train ride to Sapa. The day we spent trekking between indigenous villages in the mountains of Sapa was one of the most interesting days of my life! We have travelled a lot and this was one of the best trips we have ever taken."

"I have to admit, this was the BEST vacation I ever had. The tour was nothing less than Fantastic! The hotels were great, the guides were great, the transportation was great, the places were great, the people were great, the food was great and last but not least China, itself was out of this world. I'm so glad I booked this tour and would recommend this to anyone. Thanks so much for all your help, your interest and your recommendations. Steve in China was so attentive, he called constantly to make sure everything was fine. We really had a fabulous time and even my jaded husband who normally only seems to care about where the nearest golf course is, was impressed and had a wonderful time.
Thanks again, and unto the next vacation (although I don't know how we would top this one!!)

Latest Dwarf galaxy Stories
Hi neighbors! Astronomers have discovered a 'treasure trove' of 9 previously undetected dwarf satellites (including 3 small galaxies) orbiting around the Milky Way.
A dwarf galaxy recently discovered orbiting the Milky Way appears to be radiating gamma rays, and leading researchers from Brown and Carnegie Mellon universities hypothesize that it could be filled with particles of the mysterious substance known as dark matter.
In four billion years, a mere blink of an eye by universal standards, planet Earth will be part of a galactic collision when our Milky Way will smash into the Andromeda spiral galaxy. Scientists got a preview of that event earlier this week.
Don't look now, Milky Way, but it appears that there's a new dwarf galaxy in the neighborhood.
When galaxies grow too massive to continue making their own stars, they begin cannibalizing other nearby galaxies, experts from the University of Western Australia and an international team of colleagues reported this week in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
Astronomers have discovered a supermassive black hole in the ultracompact dwarf galaxy M60-UCD1, making it the smallest galaxy ever found to host one of these enormous light-sucking objects.
WASHINGTON, Sept.
The discovery that many small galaxies throughout the universe do not 'swarm' around larger ones like bees do but 'dance' in orderly disc-shaped orbits is a challenge to our understanding of how the universe formed and evolved.
While images of the Milky Way or Andromeda galaxies may dominate our mind's image of what a galaxy looks like, the fact is that the largest objects in the Universe come in all shapes and sizes. In fact, most galaxies in the cosmos are known as dwarf galaxies.
New research by academics at the University of Sheffield has solved a long-standing mystery surrounding the evolution of galaxies, deepening our understanding of the future of the Milky Way.
Latest Dwarf galaxy Reference Libraries
The two Magellanic Clouds (or Nubeculae Magellani), composed of the Large Megellanic Cloud and the Small Magellanic Cloud, are irregular dwarf galaxies visible in the southern hemisphere. They are members of our Local Group and orbit the Milky Way galaxy. Persian astronomer Al Sufi, in 964, was the first to have written anything about the Magellanic Clouds proving they have been known since early time amongst the Middle East peoples. Sufi, in his Book of Fixed Stars, calls the clouds...
The Local Group, compromising more than 30 galaxies (including dwarf galaxies and the Milky Way), is a group of galaxies with a gravitational center located somewhere between the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy. With a binary (dumbbell) shape and a total mass of (1.29 ± 0.14) × 1012M the Local group covers a 10 million light-year diameter. The local group is part of the Virgo Supercluster. The two largest galaxies in the group are the Milky Way and the Andromeda both Spiral...
Within the Hydra, Centaurus, and Virgo constellations a complex group of galaxies resides called Centaurus A/M83. There are two subgroups within Centaurus A/M83. The first is Cen A, at a distance of 11.9 Million Light Years, is centered around Centaurus A, a close by radio galaxy. The other subgroup, M83, is at a distance of 14.9 Million Light Years and is centered around the Messier 83. Since there are two subgroups Centaurus is sometimes identified as one group and sometimes two, it will be...
The Abell 520 galaxy cluster is an strange structure formed by a major merger. Due to its odd and chaotic nature it has been given the nick-name the Train Wreck Cluster.

It also disrupts many alternative theories of modified gravity. Similar to the Bullet Cluster the gas contents and galaxies within the...

It's safe to assume Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson's relationship is soooo over, there's no chance for reconciliation.
Lindsay, who is now back to men and dating Danny Cipriani, dated Sam on and off for 16 months. And while Sam loved Lindsay, she admitted that their relationship was less than perfect.
She said: "I love her as a human being. I'm not gonna sit here and negate everything we had. You know, I could have a thousand times countered s**t with facts. It's just not for me.
But sometimes love just isn't enough. In Samantha's case, being with Lindsay was a big headache.
She added in an interview with The Times magazine: "To be honest, being with her was more of a headache than anything else. Everything I was doing I was already doing (before Lindsay).
"It just meant there were paparazzi pictures documenting it. It sucked, because I'm a pretty private person and I'd managed to stay under the radar for so long. But at the same time I'm not gonna not hang out with somebody that I care about because of that s**t."
If anything Sam should be thanking Lindsay for putting her on the map. She went from making a few hundred bucks on DJ gigs to over $10K a night.

Rani Mukherjee's character in Mardaani takes inspiration from a real life cop posted at Mumbai's crime branch
Rani Mukherjee's character in her film, Mardaani, is apparently based on a real life lady police officer from Mumbai crime branch, who solved several child trafficking cases in the city.
ATS chief Himanshu Roy says, "Rani approached us when she was preparing for her role. She wanted to play it realistically and we have just helped her do that." Roy adds that Rani wanted to know in detail about the challenges faced by cops and the lifestyle we lead. So we put her in touch with two lady officers from the crime branch. She then spent some time with them to get a better idea about their lives." Roy also reveals that the actress went on to meet the lady police offer whose life has inspired Rani's character in the film. "I cannot reveal her name but yes, she was an officer at the crime branch," he says.
It may be noted here that the cast and crew of the film have signed a non- disclosure clause with the production house. This means that they are not at liberty to share any information about the film with the media at this stage.But it is known that the film's story revolves around a teenage girl who is kidnapped and smuggled out the city by child traffickers and how Rani's character embarks on a hunt for the girl.

McMurtrie said it's difficult to forecast how much a compensation law could cost a state each year. If a compensation law were implemented in Washington, the state would likely have to immediately compensate between 10 and 12 recently-exonerated innocent individuals, she said.
A 1996 study by the Ohio State University Criminal Justice Research Center estimated that about 10,000 people in the United States are wrongfully convicted of serious crimes every year, largely because of eyewitness misidentification.
Northrop and Larry Davis, another man convicted in his case, were both falsely picked out of a police line-up by a woman who had been attacked, blindfolded and raped, while working as a housekeeper in La Center, Wash., in 1993.
Bills to compensate the wrongfully convicted are pending in several states, where the debates have broadly highlighted the tension between fiscal effects and the political reality.
Draft legislation in Washington State, which would have provided up to $20,000 per year to Northrop and other innocent individuals wrongly imprisoned, failed to pass a Senate committee this year. Supporters hope it will receive a renewed push next year.
"These people have suffered more than any of us can imagine, on every level," said Brown. "The horror of prison when you're wrongfully convicted is just a new level of injustice. And, obviously, we ought to do everything we can to make people as whole as we can."
Brown says she's hopeful Michigan may become the 28th state to implement a compensation law later this year.

Remember Me
Over their two decade long career, Paradise Lost have not only created and defined genres and styles, but almost immediately transcended them. From the crawling, harrowing doom of their 1990 debut 'Lost Paradise', to the electronic flourishes prevalent in 1997's 'One Second', 1999's 'Host' and 2005's stunning self-titled album, their sound has continued to evolve vastly, but haunting melody and dark rock power has remained at the very core of their identity.
In 1991 the band released 'Gothic', not so much an album title as the definition for an entire genre, while the influence 1995's huge-selling masterpiece 'Draconian Times' – the missing link between Metallica and the Sisters of Mercy - echoes loudly in today's scene, with the likes of Cradle of Filth, Nightwish and HIM owing a huge debt to their knack for injecting heavy rock with their trademark dark sheen.
Recorded at both Chapel Studios in Lincolnshire with producer Rhys Fulber, and also in Canada and was mixed by Mike Fraser (Metallica, AC/DC, Van Halen), 'In Requiem' sees the band taking a slight step away from the moodier leanings of their last few records into more stripped down territory, and continuing to push the envelope of what can be done with the dark side of heavy metal, while remaining as anthemic and recognisable as ever in their shadowy art.
"We wanted to make a heavier, darker Paradise Lost album," says singer Nick Holmes. "But it was also important to write songs that encompass the melody that has become very much an integral part of our music over the last 10 years."
"More raw, organic, less polished," is how guitarist Gregor Mackintosh puts it. "Musically, it is about finding the balance between brutality and empathy, between horror and beauty. Neither a celebration nor a lamentation, simply the emotions that arise, being surrounded by life and death."
'In Requiem' is preceded by the awesome single 'The Enemy' on April 13th, accompanied by a stunning video filmed on the Crimean peninsula in Yalta with acclaimed Ukrainian director Edward 209, famed for his bizarre take on making videos.

'Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus…' Yep, it's that time of year when Ol' Saint Nicholas makes his annual trip around the world delivering joy. But he won't be the only one hittin' the roads this holiday season. Santa's travels are a bit different than ours. He never gets caught in a traffic jam; Santa never has his flight delayed; and Santa is most certainly never provoked into flashing an angry single-finger gesture out of his sleigh window towards fellow commuters. Nope, Santa's travels always seem to go off without a hitch.
Let's take a closer look at Santa's holiday travels in comparison to ours.

Actress and professional hot person Kate Mara shows off her incredibly toned body in Women's Health Magazine. In this spread she wears some workout clothes that certainly is giving me a cardio workout. Her sports bra is full up with her fantastic boobage. I know whenever I watch House of Cards I certainly enjoy watching those bad boys bounce across my screen. She's got a ridiculously fit and toned midsection which you can also see from the workout pics. But let's not forget about her legs. Sweet Lord Jesus, if you are listening, please send her in the night to wrap those silky legs around me. I'll never ask for anything ever again. Amen.
But for serious, she's a good actress too. She's really the whole package: boobage, tight stomach, long legs, and talent. Not necessarily in that order.

About Us
We think you should know that Cookworks is not just a locally owned kitchen shop. Think of us as kitchen enablers - but in a good way.
After all, every moment you spend preparing food for yourself means you are not reviving embalmed meals in the microwave or ingesting manufactured food in fewer seconds than it takes to make. Every minute in your kitchen is time to be conscious of what you are eating, and why, and where your food comes from and all the good that it does. Also, it's fun: learning new things, remembering old favourites, making mistakes, having little victories - every time you eat. Even more, nothing brings friends and family closer than time together cooking and eating. Not even texting.
So we're proud to bring you the best kitchen gear we can find, and you'll be seeing more and more chefs and local food artisans sharing what they know in our classes. But we won't really be happy until we know that you're getting more out of the most important room in your home. Because we really believe that the one thing everyone can make in their kitchen is a better life.

Sometimes we ask ourselves, is it possible we've reached the pinnacle of cheapness?
It's a frightening and depressing thought. What else is there to do in this economy but invent new ways to save what little money we have.
But then we get a refreshing tip like this one from Bonnie Repsher in Tatamy, and our faith in the endless possibilities of cheapness is restored.
"I am sure someone has sent this in, but any time I have to clean my glasses, or anything small that needs a glass cleaner, I always spray the item in front of a mirror or window," Bonnie said. "The glass cleaner then spritzes on the item I am cleaning, and the mirror or whatever behind it. Kill two birds with one stone."
That's right, cheapsters. You read it here first. Bonnie is actually making sure she doesn't waste mist.
We encourage you to give it a try. You'll be surprised to see how much mist would otherwise go to waste when cleaning your glasses.
Bonnie helped us make a demonstration video you can see at http://www.mcall.com/onthecheap. She salvaged enough mist to clean an entire storm door. Some of you are probably reaching for the glass cleaner and your spectacles and looking for a dirty window right now.
As excited as we were about this tip, it presented some real computational challenges for the On The Cheap lab. First, we had to determine how many squirts are in a bottle of glass cleaner: enough to cramp up both of your hands and then some. Then we had to calculate how much of each squirt lands on your glasses and how much sprays beyond.
We haven't had this much trouble since Ed Wanamaker showed us how he saves the salt in the bottom of an empty pretzel bag.
Don't worry. The On The Cheap lab pulled through. We figure this tip would save you $6.98 over 20 years. That's enough for a few bottles of generic glass cleaner. Individual results will vary depending on the surface area of your spectacles.
We're still hearing from folks about what to do with your plastic bags in which the newspaper is delivered. Many readers suggest saving them and returning them to your newspaper carrier to eliminate waste.
And here's another great tip from Ben Ferenchak in Catasauqua.
"Don't throw those newspaper bags away just yet," Ben said. "I am currently using them for another job around the house. They are perfect to slide over a paint roller after painting the first coat. The paint on the roller will stay wet for a day or so until you are ready for the second coat. No need to throw away the roller cover between coats or to clean it off. This saves time and money. Real cheapskates understand the value of both. I also use them to wrap a wet paint brush in between coats."
Ben also uses the newspaper bag to remove the paint roll when he finishes painting to avoid covering his hands in wet paint. And the bags can be used to cover the feet of a dirty ladder if you have to use a ladder inside.
"I recycle the rest that I have by using them for stuffing when shipping something my wife sells on eBay," Ben said. "I don't think I ever threw one away."

To prevent unscrupulous users from making copies of the songs, each digital file on Rhapsody is encoded with Janus -- a so-called "digital rights management" technology provided by Microsoft.
Rob Glaser, RealNetwork's founder and chief executive officer, said the move to offer free listening is designed to entice the digital music fans who still balk at paying for online music.
"Essentially, we've taken away the barrier of, putting your charge card in to use it," said Glaser. "Now all you have to do is download the software and you're off to the races."
Industry watchers note that RealNetwork's latest announcement could also help lure more music fans to legal online music services -- including Rhapsody's own $10 per month unlimited music service.
However, detractors note that while Rhapsody's free plan might be easy on the wallet, it's not a clear slam-dunk. For example, only digital music players that support Microsoft's Janus technology will be able to access Rhapsody's tunes. That means the growing number of Apple iPod owners will probably stick to Apple's iTunes service.

Urban Escape Salon and Day SpaRead MoreBecky M. Hogge, a licensed cosmetologist for more than 24 years, sees Urban Escape Salon and Day Spa as a space outside of time. She and her staff view their venue as a sanctuary where clients can recline and recharge before walking back into busy schedules. Managing such an oasis is not as restful as visiting one, however. To update her repertoire of services, Becky attends hair shows and continuing-education classes throughout the year. Her resulting expertise allows her to style all hair types, to imbue strands with fresh color, and to craft formal updos for special occasions. She is also certified in keratin straightening treatments and staunchly believes in the aesthetic value of professional salon products. Formulas from Redken, Pureology, and Bioelements all contribute to her trimming and texturizing appointments. In addition to haircare, the spa hosts a catalog of relaxing body treatments. Massage techniques range from Swedish and deep-tissue modalities to hot-stone work and reflexology. Nail technicians beautify hands and feet with mani-pedis and paraffin dips, a more professional moisturizing method than wearing lotion-filled mittens. Custom facials, facial waxing, tanning, and makeup applications round out the menu of pampering services.6215 B Chesapeake CircleNew Kent, VA US
One Touch of ParadiseRead MoreLounging amid the salon's robin's-egg blue walls, guests undergo full-on makeovers via 3-D nail designs and cut and color treatments. One Touch of Paradise is also a multicultural salon, which means that each stylist is an expert in all hair types, regardless of color or texture.4881 Finlay StreetHenrico, VA US
Relax & RejuvenateRead MoreRelax & Rejuvenate helps clients relax and relieve stress in a peaceful environment. With certified massage therapists on staff, Relax & Rejuvenate offers Swedish, deep-tissue, and therapeutic massages to help ease its clients' tight muscles and tired backs.105 W Williamsburg Rd.Sandston, VA US
A New Length Salon & Day SpaRead MoreA tranquil experience awaits clients who waltz through the doors of A New Length Salon & Day Spa, where attentive staffers greet them with an array of hair, skin, and massage services. Five stylists scurry across the salon floor, skillfully tending to manes with customized haircuts, highlights, and straightening treatments utilizing more than 15 brands of beauty products including Keune and Bio Ionic haircare. Inside a private treatment room, an aesthetician tends to skin, peering into pores to decipher skin types and predict next week's lottery numbers. Visages can be balanced and restored to more youthful appearances with the aid of traditional aesthetic services, such as brow tinting and waxing, or more advanced medi-spa treatments such as Diamond microdermabrasion. Faces are further beautified at the hands of a trained makeup artist wielding True skincare and cosmetics, a line of products infused with a free-radical fighting antioxidant. During makeup applications, artists narrate every brush stroke so clients can recreate the look at home. A New Length's staff also uses their beautification skills to pay it forward by donating proceeds from haircuts, facials, massages, and pink polish to the Virginia Breast Cancer Foundation.6078 Mechanicsville TpkeMechanicsville, VA US
Escape MassageRead MoreThe certified therapists behind Escape Massage knead away curmudgeonly knots seven days a week inside 10 private and two couples massage rooms. Three-inch high-density foam massage tables cushion bodies while warm waves of heat fend off goose bumps as they disperse through custom fitted microfiber sheets and quiet heaters. After therapists dim the wall sconces, they manipulate sinews with Swedish massage techniques, and optional deep-tissue, aromatherapeutic, and hot-stone techniques, concluding each session with hot towels upon request. Escape Massage also provides prenatal massage tables, which come with specially designed padding and pillows that allow moms-to-be to lay face-down and solicit parenting advice from Mother Earth. Escape Massage has three locations and is open 7 days a week.9225 Atlee RdMechanicsville, VA US
Misti Belle's Hair & BeautyRead MoreAt Misti Belle's Hair & Beauty, savvy stylists sculpt and cut hair to complement each client's unique personality and facial angles. With a specialty in hair coloring, the team members use top-shelf products to bring out rich, natural-looking colors and can inspire hair to become as smooth as Kenny G's speaking voice with quality keratin-treatment products.7038 Mechanicsville Tpke.Mechanicsville, VA US

10.04.07 - By Gabriel DeCrease: Before I dive into the fray of the heated and long-standing Joe Calzaghe-debate that has had pundits beating each others brains out in a brutal war of words on the pages of every boxing publication in the civilized world, let me say, I haveas many of you knowbeen a vocal depreciator of Calzaghe for years. I have saidof the pre-2006 Calzaghethat he was sloppy on defense, prone to occasional, loose-fisted slapping, tentative against hard-punchers, and sometimes unwilling to hunker-down and get physical enough to finish a beaten or sub-par opponent.
That said, the press and public are, in the wake of his unsurprising easy-bake victory over Peter Manfredo Jr., denying Joe the praise he rightfully deserves and focusing completely on Manfredos lame-duck performance in which he looked less like a top-tier boxing contender, and more like a guy that played one on television. Hmmmm? There are also, naturally, those cries that the stoppage was outrageous and prematurethat Manfredo was denied a fair shot at champion-status.
All the talk is about Manfredo: the questions about his credibility as an opponent, and about the credibility of the stoppage. None of the talk is about Joe, so I am thus compelled, despite myself, to take the occasion to deal out some kudos to Joe Calzaghe.
If the fight itself is to be viewed separate from the various preliminary controversies surrounding the two fighters, what is to be seen? A well-conditioned, fresh-looking, smooth-moving Calzaghe felt out his opponent in the first-stanza. Manfredolooking uncomfortably-soft in his 168-pound bodyappeared to be utterly off-kilter, and unwilling to swim the deep-waters of a world championship boxing fight. It was obvious immediately that several rungs on the ladders of quality and talent separated champ from challenger. Calzaghe was not instantly dominant, but it was the little things, the sweet, well-oiled machinery of Joes punches, and the fear and shaky-trepidation in Manfredos postureit all seemed to lay the groundwork for landslide domination. This was not Evander Holyfield v. Dwight Muhammad Qawi in 1986. No. Calzaghe v. Manfredo looked, from the outset to be much more like Bernard Hopkins v. Morrade Hakkar in 2003. But, I should note, the unified, synthesized, fearsome ability of the champion represents half the humiliation-equation in such mismatches. It was Calzaghes a-game that kept Manfredo punkd and back on his heels from the start. If the champ gave any indication of vulnerability, the challenger (and the referee) might have been motivated to let it ride.
In the second, Joe started to increase his productivity, putting together those sharp, chopping combos while moving in-and-out before Manfredo could concentrate enough to properly defend or gather the gumption to think about countering. An emboldened Calzaghe really took hold of his prey in the third and began to land at will. Joe backed Manfredo up and worked him over against the ropes with busy, if not fully-loaded flurries. Manfredo did not answer back and seemed utterly without an answer to any of the punishment he was taking. He was tagged a few times, but probably not seriously rocked. But, Peter, if you are not out on your feet, then you are probably able to punch back, and probably should or, as you now know, the referee might get the wrong idea that you need saving. Ref Terry OConnor probably could have let the fight go on, but I do not call the stoppage an erroneous judgment. Manfredo gave him nothing but calls to watch for the need to intercede from the opening bell. And Calzaghe, the boxing champion, was dominating a fighter who seemed not to want to be there. If Calzaghe were looking less sharp, and Manfredo were looking more game, a different light might have been cast on the stoppage.
After the fight, Manfredo responded to the question of whether or not the stoppage was premature, Of course it was. Did
my legs buckle? The referee didn't even say: 'Throw some punches or I'm going to stop it.' There were no warnings, just a 10-second barrage by him, if that. I was starting to duck and move out of the way and come back to hook. Manfredos account seems to overlook the fact that it is not up to the referee to warn you that he might wave off your boxing title shot while you are otherwise distracted by the punched bouncing off your forehead and ribcage. The Pride of Providence went on, "I'm a fighter. I'm a gladiator. I want to get killed to get out of that ring. [OConnor] had no right to stop the fight. I wasn't hurt. I'm still in shock. I can't believe he stopped it that quick. The sentiment is admirable, but not enacted by Manfredo when he was actually in the ring. That is, not to say, he was not trying, or he is a tomato can. That is not the case. He was being dominated, much to his surprise, by a supremely-conditioned, veteran world champion, whothough no one seems to have noticedwas fighting at his slick, quick-fisted best, not that he needed to.
Calzaghe said of the stoppage, "It could have been slightly premature. I'm not the referee, I'm just in there throwing punches. It's not my call. He is right, and though he oversimplifies and reduces his effort, he makes a good point. He was throwing punches in bunches, and well. Manfredo was not.
In what fight there was to watch, Calzaghe was spry and vigorous as a much younger fighter, and showed the ring-generalship of a much more stiffly-tested champion. He was imposing his own game-plan, his own twelve-round story-arc, on Manfredo without allowing the challenger the opportunity to protest. Manfredo simply wrote himself out of a tale that seemed to prohibit a happy-ending in which he would leave the arena victories. In this way, Calzaghe answered some questions that have been hanging over his head like dark clouds threatening to dampen his legacy. Joes tepid decision win over Sakio Bika had the masses wondering if that career-defining domination of Jeff Lacy was a fluke, or perhaps a late flash of brilliance for an aging, protected boxing champion that had since began to rust at the hinges. He claimed a hand injury was to blame and folks immediately started wondering if injuries would slow him down in subsequent fights. For my part, I am willing to take what he showed against Manfredo as a down-payment on proof that Joe has a considerable amount of gas left in the tank and has recuperated from injuries-past sufficiently to go into a fight without being nervously aware of some hair-trigger brittleness. Barring some training disaster or sudden biological-breakdown, hes ready for whatever comes next.
Diverting slightly, I must also defend Joe against some of the criticisms that were heaped upon him after the Bika fight. All the detractions seemed to focus on the larger issues of Calzaghes career. No one was interested in Bika before, during, or after, the fight in question. But they damn well should have been. Even without the injury, Bika would have been a handful. It was not that Calzaghe was unmotivated, or under-performing. It was, in fact, that Bika, unheralded and untested as he was, rose to the occasion. What Bika lacked in fistic-technique and balance, he made up for with a combination of drive, determination, chin, pressure, and innate ruggedness. The Scorpion even appeared to accidentally fall into the role of ring-general at times as a byproduct his aptitude for using pressure-punching to cut off the ring against a quicker opponent.
The fight should be seen as a credit to Bika, not a subtraction from Calzaghes late-surge onto the world-stage. In fact, Calzaghe should be lauded, lightly, for brawling effectivelywith an injured handon the inside, taking more leather than usual to enable his hobbled hand speed in spaces that accommodated his injury.
There, painful as it was, I upheld Joe Calzaghes banner, and perhaps, to some degree, his honor. He earned it, this time, and seemed to be getting the shaft. But his legacy remains incomplete. His doubters are many, and, despite this latest tribute, I stand with no shortage of company on the periphery of the doubts that seemed an indelible stain on Calzaghe before he made mincemeat of Jeff Lacy on worldwide television. If the purses and paychecks can be agreeably negotiatedwhich is, at present, not likelythe destiny of the boxing division could be determined in a single unification clash between Calzaghe and Mikkel Kessler. Keep your fingers crossed. In such a fight, Kessler would have the opportunity to dethrone the old Welsh dragon in his late-glory and become a unified champion with the international recognition that has so far evaded him. And Calzaghe could, if he won, end his career by letting the heir-apparent know his predecessor is not to be outdone and make a closing statement of his willingness to take hard, precarious fights against top-competition.

US teen Duval stuns Stosur in US Open 1st round
"It's not a good memory, so I've tried to forget as much as I could about it," she said. "I don't remember too much of it anymore, which is great."
In 2010, when a massive earthquake struck the island country, her father, a doctor, was buried in rubble for nearly 12 hours. His legs were broken but he survived and got off the island thanks to an American friend who was able to get a helicopter to bail him out.
All of this makes tennis seem not so important.
"There's a lot to be thankful for," she said during her on-court interview after the win. "I don't take anything for granted. You never know what can happen any day. My dad's fortunate to be here. ... I thank God every day for everything that's happened. Life is short."
On this night, however, it felt as though life as a tennis star was just beginning: She received a text from Billie Jean King. Got a shout-out on Twitter from Lil Wayne.
"I don't have Twitter," Duval conceded. "I'm going to go hit that up. Maybe I have to create one and be like `(at)weezythankyou.'"
Before that, though, more tennis.
And maybe a new role to play - as America's next up-and-coming tennis star.
"That's what I'm working for," she said. "If God will let it, then let's go."

Ahead of US President Barack Obama's proposed announcement on gun control measures, Vice President Joe Biden has said that the steps would include universal background check and a ban on assault weapons.
These details were provided by Biden when he invited a group of 12 diverse leaders from various religions including Sikh and Hindus, said Rajwant Singh, Chairman of the Sikh Council on Religion and Education.
During the meeting, Biden shared some thoughts on the White House's proposal to curb gun violence, which includes universal background checks and bans on assault weapons with a possible ammunition component.
Biden also expressed the need for faith leaders to appeal to all Americans to eventually pass legislation that will meet that goal.
"We are looking forward to working with Vice President Biden, the Obama administration and Congress to find the comprehensive solution that makes our society more secure where we can raise our children free from any fear of violence," Singh said in a statement yesterday.
"Given that a lot of the gun violence is concentrated in urban and poor neighborhoods, it is the responsibility for any comprehensive approach to recognize that and to pay attention to that," said San Francisco based Rev Michael McBride, the head of PICO National Network's Lifelines to Healing Campaign — an effort to reduce inner-city gun violence.
Leaders of the Catholic, Protestant, Jewish, Muslim, Sikh and Hindu religions, as well as Evangelical and Pentecostal Christian communities, were represented in the meeting which was chaired by Joshua DuBois, head of the White House faith based Initiative.
Among other topics raised by the faith leaders were: protection of religious buildings and religious intolerance.
"In the first week of February, Sikhs will be marking the six month anniversary of the shooting at the Sikh Gurdwara in Wisconsin with a major initiative to speak against the promotion and perpetuation of indiscriminate violence in the popular culture. We will offer prayers not only for the victims of Sikh community but for all the victims of this senseless shootings," Dr Singh said in the meeting.
He suggested to Biden that the nation should have a major educational initiative to teach kids against indiscriminate violence and there needs to be major push at the state and the federal level.
In addition, the ex-servicemen ought to be given mental health counseling so they do not become target of recruitment by the violent groups.
Singh also suggested that Obama should call religious leaders from across the nation to join him in this critical issue to raise nation's consciousness.

I write about autism a lot. Much of what I write has to do with autism-related research, and I keep tabs on what comes down the pipeline every day–because a new autism finding turns up every day. Some of it seems pretty reasonable, but a few things I've seen linked to autism–always a mathematical relationship, never a causative one–just leave a reader thinking, "Eh?," possibly with a little stereotypical head-scratching added in. Or maybe the occasional throwing of items within reach.
Over the years, I've accumulated quite a list. Here are the 10 weirdest–and in some cases, most dangerous–factors I've seen linked to autism.
1. No worms. Without question, my all-time favorite autism-linked factor has to be "an absence of worms." It's a wriggly hypothesis that lacks even a correlation to drive it, but it sure did get a lot of attention. I can confirm anecdatally that I've never heard of an autistic person who had worms, but I also haven't known non-autistic people who have, either.
2. Lyme disease. This idea, also lacking a correlation as a hypothetical springboard, fails in any number of ways, most of which consist of having no evidence base. It first hit the radar via a local Fox Fox news channel, and it's got a lot of die-hard fans who periodically pop up to defend it. [Disclosure: I am a volunteer editor at the linked site.]
3. Relative finger length. According to my own relative finger lengths, I am either male or a lesbian. I am neither. Of course, at the link, we're promised that our finger lengths will also predict our tendency to develop cancer. Cancer, autism, homosexuality–hey, there, one of the 10 signs of pseudoscience!
4. Too much money. Counts us out. Of course, what the study really indicates is that having resources–like money–means readier access to services and diagnostic testing.
5. An amino acid. I think. I'll quote myself on this one: "You know that modern art that you stare at, trying to figure out why it's supposed to be art? This is the science version of that."
6. Too much air pollution. A.k.a, "living near a freeway." Has anyone checked for super-double-plus-high autism prevalence in the nations of the world with the worst air pollution, like Iran, Mongolia, India, China, or Pakistan? Or noticed that in the US, pollution's actually decreasing?
7. Too much androgen. Not as in "in the womb," but just a presumption of an overwhelming amount of androgen that at least one delicensed doctor (it's kind of trendy in the world of autism pseudoscience to be delicensed) tried to parlay into a patented treatment that involved using a chemical castration agent on children without medical indication.
8. The Internet. It was a completely ridiculous thing to say, but it sure did start an entertaining Internet meme: I point to Baroness Greenfield, I point to viral memes. That's all.
9. Vaccines. It's dead, Jim. Stop flogging the poor, dead hypothesis. Let's just bury it in a simple, private ceremony.
10. Mothers. Not that mothers are necessarily strange, but everything we do seems to be linked to autism: Having children close together, having them in a certain order, being a certain age, having antibodies, having children in summer, having wombs and gestating embryonic and fetal humans in them, using Clomid, IVF, terbutaline, or labor induction, being pregnant near freeways, donating bad mitochondria to offspring, partnering with older fathers, passing genes to our children, eating, treating depression, getting an infection during pregnancy, including the flu, not getting an infection, being depressed, or behaving like refrigerators.
The list of maternal factors linked to autism is actually much longer than this, so I thought I'd just say "Mothers" and leave it at that. So from now on, instead of elaborating on new research findings, the news media can simply write, "We point to mothers, we point to autism. That's all." Don't worry. It'll be OK. We're pretty used to it.

Great Design
posted 7 years ago
We used this for all of our dogs when they were puppies, but now that they are older we use it only occasionally - perhaps if we are having a party and want the dogs to stay out of the way. It is nice to have something that folds down so it doesn't take up a bunch of room when it isn't in use.
Pros: easy to fold down and store, easy to keep clean, sturdy
Cons: none

Zeiss. . . . .ㅠㅠ
I've got Carl Zeiss on my Nokia Lumia 920. Best camera phone on the market.

Its good because it has zeiss. A glass that has awesome low light performance. You can find it in the Nokia Lumia 920
Manual Focus correct?

Sudfeld Secures Spot on Manning Award Watch List
August 14, 2014HOOSIER SPORTS 365
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Indiana junior quarterback Nate Sudfeldearned a spot on the preseason Watch List for the Manning Award, sponsored by the Allstate Sugar Bowl, it was announced on Thursday. The list includes 32 of the top quarterbacks in the nation heading into the 2014 season. The winner will again be selected by a voting panel, which includes national media and each of the Mannings, after the bowls.
Sudfeld enters the 2014 campaign second in completion percentage (60.2) and seventh in passing touchdowns (28) on IU's career lists. He completed 194-of-322 (60.2 percent) for 2,523 yards with 21 TDs, nine interceptions and a 142.0 pass efficiency rating in 2013.
The 6-5 gunslinger out Modesto, Calif., posted three 300-yard games and multi-touchdowns seven times. He finished fourth in TDs and completion percentage, seventh in yardage and ninth in completions on the Hoosiers single-season charts.
Sudfeld was third in the Big Ten in yards per completion (13.0) and yards per attempt (7.8), fourth in passing yards per game (210.2) and completions per game (16.2), tied for fourth in passing scores, fifth in pass efficiency, passing yardage, total offense per game (207.4), completion percentage and points responsible for per game (11.2).
The Manning Award was created by the Allstate Sugar Bowl in honor of the college football accomplishments of Archie, Peyton and Eli Manning. It is the only quarterback award that includes the candidates' bowl performances in its balloting.
"This is always a great time of year with college football ramping up once again," said Archie Manning. "We have a very strong group of 32 quarterbacks on our Watch List this year and we've seen them all in action, but every year there are new guys who jump right in and become stars. That's what makes college football such a wonderful sport - you never know what might happen once the teams get out on the field."
"We have had the opportunity to recognize 10 outstanding quarterbacks with the Manning Award," said Paul Hoolahan, Allstate Sugar Bowl CEO. "It is truly a great honor for the Allstate Sugar Bowl to sponsor this award and we wish the best of luck to every quarterback and team in the country for another great year of college football."
The Manning Award will be recognizing its 11th winner this year. USC's Matt Leinart was the inaugural winner of the award in 2005, followed by Texas' Vince Young in 2006. Both went on to be top 10 NFL draft picks. In 2007, LSU's JaMarcus Russell earned the award and was the NFL's No. 1 draft pick. Boston College's Matt Ryan claimed the award in 2008 and was drafted No. 3, quickly becoming the starting quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons. In 2009, Florida star Tim Tebow earned the honor - he also went on to be selected in the first round of the NFL Draft. The 2010 winner was Texas signal-caller Colt McCoy, at the time, the winningest quarterback in college football history, who was selected by the Cleveland Browns in the draft. Auburn's Cameron Newton earned the award in 2011, prior to being selected No. 1 overall in the 2011 NFL Draft by the Carolina Panthers. The 2012 honoree was Robert Griffin, III, from Baylor, who was also a top NFL draft pick (No. 2 overall by the Washington Redskins). The 2013 and 2014 winners were also the first freshmen to collect the honor - in 2013, it was Texas A&M's Johnny Manziel, and he was followed by last year's winner, Jameis Winston from Florida State. Both freshmen also collected the Heisman Trophy after their sensational debut seasons.
