19. The method according to claim 10, and further comprising the step of providing a multiplexer which senses, as a function of a search task, only selected receiving loops.
This invention relates to a method and to a probe arrangement for the electromagnetic detection of metal objects. According to the invention, an electromagnetic signal is emitted and excites the object to be detected so that it emits a secondary signal. The secondary signal is received with several loops in the form of several loop-specific secondary signals and is object-specific evaluated and displayed.
DE 42 42 541 Al discloses a method and a probe arrangement of the aforementioned type. Within a support device, four juxtaposed transmitting and receiving coils are moved over an area to be examined so that a larger surface can be scanned. The information from each individual coil is sensed and supplied for processing.
With the known method and probe arrangement there is a parallel scanning with four independent transmitting and receiving coils. The signal evaluation is not of an optimum nature and the position information of the object to be detected could be produced with greater accuracy and over a wider range.
The object of this invention is to provide a method and a probe arrangement of the aforementioned type leading to a particularly good evaluation of the signal information and to a very precise position detection of the sought object. According to the invention, this object is achieved by emitting an electromagnetic signal and exciting the metal object to emit a secondary signal. The secondary signal is received, with several loops, in the form of several loop-specific secondary signals. The secondary signal undergoes object-specific evaluation and display. The loop-specific secondary signals undergo an interconnection for determining interconnection signals. The interconnection is performed in an object-specific manner and the interconnection signals are supplied for evaluation and display.
A particular probe arrangement is provided for the electromagnetic detection of metal objects. The probe arrangement has several loops which are constructed for the reception of magnetic field signals. The loops are arranged in a matrix-like manner and constructed as receiving loops. A transmitting loop is provided and is arranged around the matrix-like receiving loops.
In accordance with an essential basic concept of the invention, an electromagnetic signal is emitted and excites the object to be detected. The object to be detected, in turn, emits a secondary signal, which can, as a result of the reception, be interconnected and emittedevaluated in planned manner in a number of receiving loops. In the probe arrangement, several receiving loops are arranged in a matrix-like manner and are able in each case to receive the secondary signal emitted by the object to be detected. As a result of the different distances and the spatial arrangement of the different receiving loops with respect to the object, loop-specific secondary signals differing from one another are measured.
These difference measured values are then interconnected or compared. In this way, precise information on the location and position of the object to be detected can be obtained.
It is advantageous to initially store the secondary signals received and then jointly evaluate them. However, it is equally possible to supply each individual secondary signal to the interconnection, where it is intermediately stored. The intermediately stored result is then processed with the next received secondary signal. Preferably, addition and subtraction take place when evaluating the secondary signals. Thus, all the received secondary signals can be summated in order to obtain a stronger location signal than would be possible when processing a single signal.
It is preferable to summate one part of the received secondary signals so as to form a first sum, summate a further part of the received secondary signals to form a second sum, and form a differential signal from said two sums. In this way, it is possible to obtain information on the precise location and position of the object to be detected. Thus, with this method, not only is it possible to prove relative conductivity changes in the ground, but also spatially distributed electrical differences.
Direction information is obtained by a subtraction from a number of secondary signals. With the aid of the direction information, it is also possible to automatically track in said direction the complete probe arrangement.
As a result of the spatial nature, the measurement and the processing of the individual secondary signals received, it is possible to produce computer-assisted shadow images of the search objects. It is preferable to select the secondary signals received and which are to be summated so that a ground or soil compensation is automatically performed. For this purpose two groups of secondary signals must be elected. In the absence of an object to be sought, these groups give in soil-specific manner the same sum. The difference of the two groups consequently gives "zero" for as long as no object modifies the received secondary signal and consequently gives rise to a result differing from "zero". This can take place, for example, by subtraction of two directly juxtaposed receiving loops.
The method is preferably performed in pulse induction (PI) technology. Frequencies between 10 Hz and 10 kHz can be used. However, it is preferable to use bipolar pulses, although it is also possible to adopt a continuous operation.
When using single pulses, it is particularly preferable to initially scan each individual, received signal with a sampling and multiplexing process and process the scanned values. This can take place for the scanned values of each individual, received secondary signal in the same way as described above for all the secondary signals. Thus, a secondary signal, which has already been prepared and processed, is obtained in each receiving channel. Thus, for example, on summating the individual scanned values, secondary signals are obtained. Each of these secondary signals has a sensitivity increased by up to 30% compared with the normal, received secondary signal. With the thus prepared individual values is carried out the further method and the interconnection of the received and prepared secondary signals. This can be performed with mono-single pulses, but preferably is performed with bipolar single pulses.
It is also preferable to perform evaluation with digital methods and microprocessors in order to be able to utilize the multiplicity of available measurement and interconnection possibilities.
For performing the method, the invention provides a probe arrangement with several receiving loops arranged in matrix-like manner and around which is formed a transmitting loop. It is advantageous in this arrangement to use a large transmitting loop passing around the receiving loops and which is able to transmit a wide magnetic field into the ground so that the penetration depth of the magnetic field into the ground is greater. It is also technically advantageous to work with separate transmitting and receiving loops.
Preferably the receiving loops are in the form of a bidimensional matrix, which, in its smallest form, is a 2�2 matrix. As a result of the evaluation of receiving loops arranged in this way, it is possible to find a position and depth with respect to the object more precisely. There is preferably a separate sensing of the receiving coils in the x and y directions. It is possible to detect object concentrations at certain locations of the loop with the search route.
The receiving loops can be further subdivided. Individual receiving loops can be interlocked to form a so-called main loop and, in each case, the individual receiving loops and also the main loop are sensed as a whole. The values of the individual receiving loops and the main loop can be compared with one another and interconnected. In a preferred embodiment, there are four main loops. Each of these main loops comprises four or eight receiving loops. The advantage of this arrangement is that, as a result of the size of the receiving loops, an adaption to the search task is possible. If only large objects are sought, then it is sufficient to merely sense the values of the main loops. However, with smaller search objects, it becomes necessary to sense smaller search loops. The depth range can also be controlled by the choice and use of the receiving loops.
According to a further development of the invention, the large transmitting loop is so constructed that it can both transmit and receive. A received value can be related to the individual received secondary signals and, consequently, an additional interconnection can be brought about, leading to increased precision of the measurement. The diameter of the large transmitting loops can, for example, be between 1/2 and 5 m. Conversely, there are cases in which it is preferable to construct the small receiving loops and/or main loops as transmitting loops.
In a preferred embodiment of the probe arrangement, each of the receiving loops, each of the main loops and also the transmitting loop used as a receiving loop is connected to a sample and hold device for scanning and storing the received secondary signals. The sample and hold devices have analog switches and capacitors.
According to a further development of the invention, it is also possible to use receiving loops of different sizes. Within a main loop, for example, there can be a very large receiving loop and several smaller receiving loops arranged around the latter. Thus, with the larger receiving loop a higher sensitivity can be obtained. The smaller receiving loops are then used for more precise position location.
Advantageously, the complete probe arrangement is housed in a portable or travelling metal-free apparatus by which it is possible to adjust the loop height with respect to the ground. Adjustability offers the advantage that the influence of highly interfering soils can be reduced by a greater measuring distance. In addition, to a certain extent, small metal parts can be masked out. Such a masking out of undesired parts can also take place through a computer-controlled signal selection. In certain cases it is also possible to use a floatable and/or submersible probe arrangement construction when seeking objects under water. For this purpose, the probe arrangement, with the associated electronics, is placed in a watertight, encapsulated casing. The results are displayed in a display, which can be seen by the user and is controllable from the probe arrangement by radio or cable connection. The floatable and submersible probe arrangement is equipped with floodable tanks, with which the buoyancy or submersion depth can be controlled.
The invention is described in greater detail hereinafter in connection with FIG. 1, which is a block circuit diagram illustrating the operation of the probe arrangement.
FIG. 1 is a block circuit diagram of a probe arrangement and shows a transmitting loop 1 which is connected to a transmitter 11. The transmitter produces single pulses which can be emitted far into the ground over the large, surrounding transmitting loop 1. The receiving loops 2 are arranged in matrix-like manner within the transmitting loop 1. Each of the receiving loops forms a receiving channel. In each case, eight individual receiving loops 2 are combined to form a main loop 3, which can once again form a receiving channel. The transmitting loop 1 is also constructed as an additional receiving channel and, therefore, there are, in all, 37 receiving channels: 32 for the individual receiving loops 2, four for the main loops 3 and one receiving channel on the transmitting loop 1. The main loops 3 are connected to the multiplexer 5, sensed by means of the 37 receiving channels, i.e. the 37 secondary signals received and supplied to an interconnection of the individual values and further processing. The loops are normally constructed as coils.
The preparation of the individual measured values, which are received by a data logger during the search and are intermediately stored, takes place at a later time by computer-assisted processing. The documented search process can be implemented in random form by suitable software. A direct, analog display during the search is also possible to provide, for example, an indication of the part of the loop in which there are metal objects.
It can be gathered from FIG. 1 that the individual receiving loops 2 and also the main loops 3 in each case have a receiver 6 and a sample and hold device with analog switches 7 and capacitors 8 for time-related and/or amplitude-related scanning and intermediate storage of secondary signals.

New Soho Map
Hey – A couple of months ago I was delighted to be asked to do the SohoCreate festival map for 2015 – illustrating the ever-changing Soho, central London. While trying to document some later developments, we – that's me, SohoCreate and sponsors Barr Gazetas – also wanted to make sure that Soho's historic landmarks and a whisper of the more colourful aspects of Soho past and present were still there. It's out in the latest SohoCreate magazine which is available In Town.
I've done many maps now, the North London Cultural Map, the Kentishtowner map including one for Prince of Wales road.

The green house effect is the rise in temperature that the earth experiences because certain gases in the atmosphere trap energy from the sun. PowerPoint Presentation of Green House Effect.
Green House Effect vs. Global Warming By; Ravi Patel Green house effect • The green house effect is the rise in temperature that the earth experiences because certain gases in the atmosphere trap energy from the sun. Global Warming • An increase in the earth's average atmospheric temperature that causes corresponding changes in climate and that may result from the greenhouse effect. Green House • One of the causes of the greenhouse effect is deforestation. • Another source of the greenhouse effect are the emissions of gases like nitrous oxide, carbon- dioxide, methane, ozone and water vapor. Global warming One cause is the release of carbon dioxide from everything such as air planes, buildings, power plants Another cause like the Greenhouse effect is water vapor increasing in the air and deforestation Greenhouse Consequences • Due to greenhouse gases, the atmosphere absorbs more infrared energy than it re- radiates to space, resulting in a net warming of the Earth-atmosphere system and of surface temperature • Without the Greenhouse effect our temperature would drop and we would freeze Global Warming Consequences • Global Warming has a lot of consequences, It can cause the following: • Extreme Weather • Increase Evaporation • Sea Level Rise • Temperature to Rise • Economy such as, Agriculture, Insurance, Transportation • Ecosystems such as, Forests, Mountains, and Ecological productivity • Health by increasing the risk of spreading disease Effort to stop Global Warming • Prevent global warming by minimizing drafts in your home. • Prevent global warming by reducing your waste electricity use. • Prevent global warming with more efficient light bulbs! • Prevent global warming by turning down your hot water heater. • One good way to prevent global warming is choosing to use power produced by alternative means rather than by the burning of fossil fuels, which give off large amounts of carbon dioxide. Solar energy can be a good alternative to use.

Drink between: 2001 - 2010 (Add My Dates)
Stunning, still amazingly youthful. Lovely nose of candied red fruit. Mouth took a bit of chewing at first but opened up fantastically.
Needs time to open up. Little fruit upon opening. Surprisingly, second day much better. Nice mature fruit with good weight. Youngish deep ruby with a little brown edge.
Dinner at Oscillate Wildly (Oscillate Wildly, Sydney): This seems more Cabernet-like at the moment, even though I know it isn't a large % of the wine. Blackcurrant, cherry, smoke/ash and chocolate. Medium bodied palate, it isn't super complex but it has some slightly plush fruit and the tannins still provide it with grip. Had a small amount left over two nights later and it was still drinking really well, so it likely has some time left to develop.
Very fresh forward styled with sweet ripe black berries and blue berries with a body of ripe cherry tomatoes. A few strips of leather but lesser than I would have thought a tight should show. Grippy tannins. A firm structured yet moreish wine.
A "Blended" Birthday Dinner (Garibaldi, Purvis Street, Singapore): A decently good wine, but not in the same class as either the 1980 Sassicaia in the earlier flight, nor the 1970 Graud-Larose that this was put next to. The nose had a mature feel to it, with a woody note along with dusty earth and dried herbs and flowers and aromas of dried plums and cherries. Not bad. The palate took on much of the same tones - it was very woody and spicy, with dusty tannins wrapped around cassis and dark cherry flavours, with a little touch of tomato at the edges. This was speared though with very bright, almost citrusy acidity that drove the the wines into a high-toned finish, where dark cherries were tied to dried herb, orange peel and more woody spice notes. Not fantastic, but it was a decently good drink. Very Italian in terms of its flavour profile, but a bit one-dimensional for a "premium" wine. It should improve over the next 6-8 years though.

Product description
The classic study of post-Cold War international relations, more relevant than ever in the post-9/11 world, with a new foreword by Zbigniew Brzezinski. Since its initial publication, "The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order "has become a classic work of international relations and one of the most influential books ever written about foreign affairs. An insightful and powerful analysis of the forces driving global politics, it is as indispensable to our understanding of American foreign policy today as the day it was published. As former National Security Adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski says in his new foreword to the book, it "has earned a place on the shelf of only about a dozen or so truly enduring works that provide the quintessential insights necessary for a broad understanding of world affairs in our time." Samuel Huntington explains how clashes between civilizations are the greatest threat to world peace but also how an international order based on civilizations is the best safeguard against war. Events since the publication of the book have proved the wisdom of that analysis. The 9/11 attacks and wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have demonstrated the threat of civilizations but have also shown how vital international cross-civilization cooperation is to restoring peace. As ideological distinctions among nations have been replaced by cultural differences, world politics has been reconfigured. Across the globe, new conflicts--and new cooperation--have replaced the old order of the Cold War era. "The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order "explains how the population explosion in Muslim countries and the economic rise of East Asia are changing global politics. These developments challenge Western dominance, promote opposition to supposedly "universal" Western ideals, and intensify intercivilization conflict over such issues as nuclear proliferation, immigration, human rights, and democracy. The Muslim population surge has led to many small wars throughout Eurasia, and the rise of China could lead to a global war of civilizations. Huntington offers a strategy for the West to preserve its unique culture and emphasizes the need for people everywhere to learn to coexist in a complex, multipolar, muliticivilizational world.

Product description
It's the end of World War II. FDR's New Deal has redefined American politics. Taxes are at an all-time high. The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki has brought a fear of total annihilation. The rise of secret government agencies and sanctions on business has many watching their backs. America's sense of freedom is diminishing and many are desperate to take that freedom back. Among them is a great dreamer, an immigrant who pulled himself from the depths of poverty to become one of the wealthiest and admired men in the world. That man is Andrew Ryan, and he believed that great men and women deserve better. And so he set out to create the impossible, a utopia free from government, censorship, and moral restrictions on science--where what you give is what you get. He created Rapture--the shining city below the sea. But as we all know, this utopia suffered a great tragedy. This is the story of how it all came to be and how it all ended."

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 11/25/12
The Chicago Bears will be just fine if they keep playing like this - and don't lose any more players to injuries. Jay Cutler threw for 188 yards and a touchdown after missing a game because of a concussion, and the Chicago Bears broke it open early in a 28-10 victory over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. Injuries to Devin Hester, Matt Forte and Charles Tillman, however, tempered some of the good feelings this win created. Tied with Green Bay for the NFC North lead and just a game ahead of Minnesota (6-5) coming in, the Bears (8-3) grabbed a 25-3 halftime lead with Cutler connecting on just about every pass. The defense held Adrian Peterson in check early on, although he did finish with 108 yards rushing. Chicago also came away with three more takeaways to increase its league-leading total to 30. The rather easy win came after back-to-back losses to Houston and San Francisco that left many questioning how good this team really is. But it also came with a heavy price. The Bears ...

We meet at the German club at sit down around a table with a drink and talk in French. It can be broken or impure French as long as the conversation flows! I believe that most language courses stress perfection too much and that getting comfortable in a language is more important than striving to do it 100% right. (after all, language should be an EQ not an IQ experience!).
I base my ideas about language learning from my previous experience in Africa where there were "Francais expatrie' avec francais rouille'", Zairois, Belgians, Pieds-Noirs, Mauriciens etc etc., as well as people that studied the grammar but needed the "verbal oil" to become fluent. We all spoke with defects but it flowed and we all learned without effort.
Why the German Club? My experience with organising meetups in Adelaide made me choose the local German club but in future we may change it if anyone can make a suggestion.

It was filled with suspense, and life for the characters was not without its problems. At times it seemed too worldly for my liking but prior to becoming a Christian we all make poor choices so in that way it is very realistic. The author does a great job of holding the reader's attention throughout the entire book. I'm looking forward to reading book 3 in the series and may even have to go back and read book 1 at some point.

The next time you have a free weekend, Düsseldorf is definitely somewhere you should check out as an option. The hotels in Düsseldorf are now among the most attractive in Germany. If you are spending some time in Düsseldorf, you should check out the Gehry buildings in the Media harbor. Mokey island is also worth a quick visit if you have the time. For a little retail therapy you should check out the Schadow Arkaden shopping mall which is one of the biggest in Germany. The Aquazoo-Lobbecke Museum is also a great place to visit with your family.

As the QE2 docks in Dubai, its owners hope that the ship will join the likes of Burj Al Arab and Burj Dubai, as one of the city's icons and draw tourists from across the world.
November 27, 2008 11:46 by kippreport
As the massive Queen Elizabeth II (QE2) came into sight at the Mina Rashid port in Dubai on Wednesday, the crowds waiting at the dockside began cheering loudly, waving British and UAE flags. Their cheers were accompanied by the sound of a police marching band, as well as music a traditional UAE dance troupe swayed to.
For the gathered press, it was a sigh of relief. An Emirates A380 plane was supposed to fly-by at 3:15 pm, the QE2 was supposed to dock at 4:30 pm, but they were delays, and as the sun began to set, photographers and camera crew were worried they wouldn't get good shots of the ship.
The A380 did fly- by, though because there was no announcement, many of the press missed it. The ship however did dock at around 5:40 pm, and its arrival threw all the gathered media into a frenzy; cameras flashing, video cameras rolling and reporters trying their best to get interviews from authorities.
After 40 years at sea, the luxury liner will be docked in Dubai permanently. QE2's previous owner, shipping company Cunard , sold QE2 last year to Dubai World for approximately $100 million. Its current owners say that in two to three years, the QE2 is going to be transformed into a hotel with dozens of rooms, several restaurants, a performance theater and a spa. Some of the cruiser's famous quarters, like the Queen's Room, the Captain's Quarters and the Bridge will not be altered.
But the transformation is bound to cost a lot of money, and during the current economic crisis, when many companies are canceling projects, is Nakheel, the company carrying out the development, adequately funded?
"Let me put it to you in perspective," says Manfred Ursprunger,the CEO of QE2 Enterprises. "We are fully committed to the vision, the development. And we are committed to delivering it in two to three years."
While we will have to wait to watch whether that happens, here are some interesting facts about the QE2.
· She has circumnavigated the world 25 times, crossed the Atlantic more than 800 times and carried more than 2.5 million passengers including many international celebrities. She has traveled more miles than any other ship ever built
· QE2 weighs approximately 70,000 tons, which is the equivalent of 14,000 elephants
· The ship consumes around 18 tons of a fuel an hour, or 433 tons per day.
· The amount of fruit juice used annually on board QE2 would fill the ship's swimming pools nearly eight times over. 2,500 tea-bags are used each day, and passengers consume nearly 20 tons of lobster and 1 ton of caviar each year.
· QE2 cost slightly more than AED 160 million to build in 1969, since then around 15 times that amount has been spent on refits and refurbishments.
· She is 294 meters in length (the equivalent of 30 London buses parked end to end), 32 meters in width (equal to seven London taxis parked end to end) and 62 meters tall from keel to masthead.-AN

DDAVP (desmopressin) is a man-made form of a hormone that occurs naturally in the pituitary gland. This hormone is important for many functions including blood flow, blood pressure, kidney function, and regulating how the body uses water.
It is a synthetic analogue of the natural pituitary hormone 8-arginine vasopressin (ADH), an antidiuretic hormone affecting renal water conservation.
The effect it has on water regulation, kidney function and blood pressure is the reason it causes weight gain.

I had not eaten here in about a couple of years and the food is still good! The service is good and the sports bar is small but I enjoyed it.
What is there to say?! One of my favorite Mexican eateries in Los Angeles! From their burritos to carne asada plate! Just try your best to not fill up on their homemade salsa and chips! I do my best to eat here at least twice a month. A must visit if you have the opportunity.
I have friends who really enjoy going here.The food is tastey and reasonably priced, but it is your typical Cal/Mex style of food, not authentic Mexican, creative or gourmet , but fresh and will fill your tummy up.
Very friendly service and large portions of good Mexican food. Large, varied menu. Very good value. A negative: very noisy, many large groups celebrating. Lighting is harsh and overly bright, an annoyance for me.
Was introduced to this establishment by a friend and since then, I've brought others and been back several times and never disappointed. Servings are generous but most important, it's clean and frequented both by Latinos, which is a good indicator, and Non-Latinos and always a crowd during Meal Times. Parking is good as its located in a Strip Shopping Center...
Have lived in the area for year and had never tried eating at the Burnt Tortilla until a good friend had her briadal shower there I was quit surprised with how good and affordable the food was. Since that time I've been back twice within a month. This is now one of my favorite mexican food resturants.
We've been going to Burnt Tortilla for years. The food is definitely comfort food. The portions are generous and satisfying.
The BT has made another attempt to go upscale (remember the place on Artesia?). It's great that wanted to move into a nicer location but I don't feel the increase in prices is justified.

Just a note: The kitchen burnt down. Ironic right considering it's named Burnt Tortilla. The TO GO restaurant is open but the main restaurant will have to be fixed before it opens up again.

Gift ideas for providers
Comments (5)
I am bringing in breakfast for the staff one morning (coffee, fruit salad, bagels and cream cheeses).
They loved it last year!
As a former preschool teacher, and now an in home provider, I will tell you what I personally would like
LOTION. Washing hands all day with so many kids leaves my hands cracked. I mean, nice good lotion. Udder cream or Neutrogena. Thick, good stuff. Also, nice soaps from B&BW for when I wash my hands 895 times a day, something that smells nice.
Also, I personally have a starbucks addiction, so that always works for me.
Some of the best gifts I got when I was teaching were accompanied by thoughtful letters thanking me for working with the kids. I still remember the cards/letters, but not often the gifts.
Just some ideas!
i always do gift cards either AMEX,bath and body works,target etc... I usually do $25 per provider. I used to do $50 but with 2 kids that would get really pricey for us since they have multiple teachers.
Brianna 3/10/09 Sarah 4/12/11
I have 5 morning-care providers, 2 actual "teachers," and then 2 after-care providers to get gifts for! This is what I am planning:
-Breakfast for the morning-care ladies, like PP suggested, they don't get a lot of time with DD and there are so many of them! I am going to make a big card to put in the middle of the food that thanks all of them - they got the worst of it when DD was getting adjusted to full-time care a couple of months ago!
-Probably $50 Amazon gift cards and some fancy chocolates for the two teachers. Is that too much? I figure this is the only gift they are getting from us all year...
-Probably $20 Amazon gift cards and chocolates for the 2 after-care girls.
If I can get to it this weekend, maybe I'll bake something special to give instead of the chocolates - I just sort of doubt it will happen! And I have to give everything by Dec. 14 because most of the teachers will be off the next 2 weeks (even though DD will still have care that time, it is scaled down because a lot of the students are not "year-round" the way we are...)
Mom to 2 girls S (4/2011) & M (3/2014)
Our acronyms: NUCB, EBF (exclusive), BW, BLW, and EBF again (extended)!
Also - you may want to check out the Working Moms board - there have been TONS of thread on this issue for the past few weeks!

Comments Thread For: Garica: A Rematch? I Would Knock Amir Khan Out Again!
Danny Garcia and Amir Khan will share a Showtime telecast April 27.
If Garcia gets by Zab Judah at Barclays Center and Khan overcomes huge underdog Julio Diaz in a fight thatll be broadcast on delay after the live telecast of Garcia-Judah, there is a strong possibility a Garcia-Khan rematch will be scheduled for later this year. Garcia doesnt think its necessary because he won their first fight definitively, but the undefeated Philadelphia fighter is willing to face the popular British boxer again.
I really dont understand why people want to see me fight him again, Garcia told BoxingScene.com. It wasnt even a close fight. I knocked him out in four rounds. But this time, Im more seasoned, Im stronger, Im a lot faster. I feel like the second time around its going to be the same outcome. But if he wants to do it, Im down for it. [Click Here To Read More]

Clearly the fight was close, and Danny's face was busted up after two rounds and his whole corner was worried sick.
He landed a punch perfect shot and we got a little war.
I would love to see that fight again, in fact i'd probably by it on PPV.
So let's get it on. I got Khan.

Can Khan stay away from Danny's left hook for 12 rounds? I doubt it but if he can he cruises to an easy UD.

Im a Garcia fan but I dont like the fact that all I hear out there mouths are Mayweather, Khan, and Broner. Sooner or later you better start focusing 100% on Judah, Matthysee, & Peterson. All of those guys are dangerous, espically the final 2

Garcia has Khan's number. Fight will be easier for Garcia now that he knows Khan. Khan has had numerous trainers in his pro career. He is who he is.

Benn Steil's essay in the July/August issue of Foreign Affairs looks at the international consequences of U.S. monetary policy action.

As this amounts to "currency manipulation" in the eyes of U.S. policymakers, trade tensions are apt to grow.
