.- A government commission established to study the question of abortion in Brazil has made its official recommendation that the practice be legalized. Members of the commission met on Monday to hammer out the final details of a proposed law which was sent yesterday to the Special Secretary for Policies for Women, Nilcea Freire. A radical feminist, Freire is renowned in Brazil for her efforts to legalize abortion and the morning-after pill through reinterpretation or modification of existing laws.
At the conclusion of Mondayâs meeting, she stated approval of the commissionâs proposal would be one of the priorities for feminist groups in the country.
Congresswoman Jandira Feghali, a supporter of the measure and member of the Communist Party of Brazil, said the approval of the proposal âwould not be easy.â âThe different social movements need to move quickly in order for the proposal to be considered this year. If it is postponed until 2006, which is an election year, the chances of it being approved will be even less.â
Brazilâs Health Minister, Saraiva Felipe, said if the proposal is approved by Congress, he would not put any obstacles in the way of its application, but in no way would he work for its approval.
On the other hand, pro-life Congresswoman Angela Guadagnin expressed disappointment at the commissionâs conclusions. âSuch conclusions by the commission were to be expected since most of the members were in favor of the legalization of abortion. They certainly do not represent the will or the desire of society.â
At the same time, she said, the commissionâs final report will have little importance. âAs opposed to what happened with the Commission, the situation in Congress will be different. In fact, there is a sharp divide over this issue and the proposal will not go forward,â she predicted.

A Doctor in physics holds the fate of the euro zone in her hands. Find out how she's connected to Latin America's favorite pop star (of Lebanese ancestry, by the way).
May 27, 2010 1:45 by shafeer
A physicist from provincial East Germany holds the reigns of the euro zone in her hands. Call her the brains behind the operation, and you won't miss the mark. Angela Merkel earned a doctorate in Physics before going on to work as a chemist in east Berlin. At the age of 36, Merkel reportedly became involved in the nascent democracy movement following the fall of the Berlin Wall. A year later, she joined the Christian Democrat party, traditionally the province of Catholics from West Germany.
The protestant woman secured a place for herself in the CDU, analysts contend, when she broke publically with former Chancellor Helmut Kohl, calling for his resignation when he was snagged in a financial impropriety scandal. Analysts say she is better characterized by pragmatism and compromise than ruthlessness, however. She was elected as Germany's first female Chancellor in 2005, a position once held by…

Sulit.com.ph loses sulit.ph in landmark WIPO case
The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) has handed down the decision regarding the dispute between Sulit.com.ph and the owner of sulit.ph.
A copy of the resolution was provided by Atty. Rod Vera (counsel to sulit.ph) which details the entire case.
The resolution went down on a technicality, including one very critical point — that the term "sulit" is a generic word and is also being used by a lot of other websites in their domains.
It's also interesting to note that Sulit.com.ph offered to buy the domain sulit.ph for as much as $2,000 but after negotiations failed, they had to file for UDRP. Read the document above to fully appreciate the decision.

Thanks for the post!
There are a lot of business competition, including the imitation of exact product or domain to attract followers. I am sharing a lot regarding business and selling. To know more about it click the Jonaflormicfren
well since ganun na nga nangyari, wag lang sana gawin ng sulit.ph na same yung type ng business ang gagawin nila, worse pati itsura ng sulit.com.ph eh gayahin na din nila…wag lang ma-confuse yung mga loyal sa sulit.com.ph…
well dun pumapasok ang BOOKMARK :)
Astig… entertaining read (PDF). No offense meant to both parties, pero, nakaka-aliw yung case na 'to. Something worth noting and remembering. :P
sulit talaga XD
thanks for sharing!
Interesting to know we have these domain disputes as well in-country. Reminds me of that whole pldt.com thingy back then.
Big local (brick&mortar/semento@haloblak) companies should really pay more attention to their online presences in this modern day and age. I've seen too many local companies have crappy, outdated, inactive websites.
Kung talagang gusto ni Sulit.com.ph yung domain ni mr sheker dapat tinaasan pa nila yung offer nila. US$2000??? Alam naman siguro ni mr sheker yung value nyan. hehe
Good win for Sulit.ph. And I'd say "tama" ang decision kasi the domain name was being used in its essential sense of giving sulit deals.
I somewhat kept track of the original pldt.com dispute. Grabe, that took at least 3 years before both parties finally settled.
If Sulit.com.ph's lawyer was good, they could have won this case.
It's obvious that Sulit.ph copied Sulit.com.ph's business model.
Are you implying that only SULIT.COM.PH as the only onlide classified ads?
They could take it to the local courts, but really if they offered $2k, the decision to spend for a WIPO case was the next move.
I guess they'll be making a more serious offer now for Sulit.ph and it will probably have to be a lot higher considering the trouble they put the domain owner through to defend against WIPO.
Also now the value of Sulit.ph is now a lot higher now that the arbitration case was won in favor of Sulit.PH, the domain owner could sell it to another interested buyer.
PH domains are becoming more and more valuable. We recently sold weather.ph for $5000.
I agree. Sulit.com.ph is super RICH, yet they only offered $2,000 to buy Sulit.ph. Parang gusto lng nila lokohin sa presyo may ari ng sulit.ph. hehehe. O______O
doh weather.com.ph pala
This is a real landmark case. It could happen to anyone. Sulit.com.ph will just have to make sure he provides a better service than his competition. Loyalty will be a factor here.
$2000 for a domain? kuripot!
Lalo nang tataas pa yan ngayon dahil natalo na yung sulit.com.ph sa official dispute case. Bad move.
Hmmm, mabilis talaga ang karma haha. Di po kasi makatarungan mga nagpapalakad ng sulit.com.ph. How does it feel na ma-agrabyado? Now you guys got a taste of your own medicine.
Greetings! Very helpful advice in this particular
post! It's the little changes that will make the most important changes. Many thanks for sharing!

The difficulty is increased if relief forces from various countries have to work together in large-scale crisis situations. The multitude of different IT systems causes the electronic communication of information across organizational boundaries to be inefficient or not possible at all, as unified standards for interfaces or, in some cases, the necessary infrastructure for data transmission are lacking.
The EC-funded project IDIRA addresses precisely these issues. 18 organizations from 7 EU countries are searching for solutions over a project duration of four years. German partners involved in the project are the Fraunhofer Institute for Transportation and Infrastructure Systems IVI and the German Red Cross, Saxony branch.
On 22nd November 2012, an official review meeting was held in the German Red Cross headquarters of Saxony in Dresden, where the first IDIRA results were successfully demonstrated to representatives of the European Commission. This important milestone is paving the way for the project consortium to continue their work in the coming months. The project results will be tested and validated within small and large-scale exercises in 2013 and 2014. Thereby, flood scenarios in the bordering regions in Poland and Czech Republic will be the main focus for the partners from Saxony.
After completion of IDIRA in 2015, it will show in how far European countries have become closer in the field of disaster management.

A team of European researchers have developed a model to simulate the impact of tsunamis generated by earthquakes and applied it to the Eastern Mediterranean. The results show how tsunami waves could hit and inundate coastal areas in southern Italy and Greece. The study is published today (27 August) in Ocean Science, an open access journal of the European Geosciences Union (EGU).
Though not as frequent as in the Pacific and Indian oceans, tsunamis also occur in the Mediterranean, mainly due to earthquakes generated when the African...
In mountainous regions earthquakes often cause strong landslides, which can be exacerbated by heavy rain. However, after an initial increase, the frequency of these mass wasting events, often enormous and dangerous, declines, in fact independently of meteorological events and aftershocks.

Palestinians in Gaza speak of life under Israeli occupation.
From Nollywood to politics: Nigeria's Kate Henshaw
16 Dec 2003 18:00 GMT
US special envoy James Baker and French President Jacques Chirac held talks on Tuesday on how to tackle Iraq's estimated debt of $40 billion, owed to countries that make up the 19 Paris Club countries.
The US and France had been deeply divided over the invasion of Iraq in March and the role of France in the postwar period.
Both countries agreed that a deal to reduce Iraq's debt should be reached by the Paris Club of creditor states by 2004. The Paris Club, is made up of countries and agencies with claims on indebted countries; France chairs the group.
Key role
On Monday, the French foreign minister, Dominique de Villepin, said France was keen to carve out a key role in aiding Iraq and was prepared to write off some of the war-torn country's debts.
Sources close to the Paris Club said recently there were two major prerequisites to any deal: a fully recognised government in Iraq and a basic agreement between Baghdad and the IMF on the country's economic strategy. One source said the US-led occupation authority in Iraq would not be deemed as sufficiently legitimate to sign legal debt deals concerning the write-off and rescheduling of repayments over decades, as well as issues such as oil output.
Members of the Iraqi delegation that were in Paris welcomed the French offer to push for debt relief with the creditor countries.
Russia, another major creditor, appealed on Monday for a debt deal to be worked out under the auspices of the Paris Club, clearly keen to ensure that every creditor recieved a fair share of whatever money was paid back in the end.

To Be Human
July 16th, 2015 · La Vida
Ah to be human. I love my life, right now, right here. I love the cool breeze that comes in my skylight window (that opens!) at the break of dawn. I cuddle underneath my comfortable, excited to wake and be in this predawn safe place, with my coffee, stirring before the awake-ness of Denver shoots into motion.
I can almost see the earth moving. It moves so fast. The time changes so fast. I want to bottle the predawn and keep it forever. So I have it always. I could go for about 5 hours of it everyday.
Its cold. Feelings of fall fill me. what?? fear of cold and what that means. I find myself suddenly out of the mode trying to cool the house down and jump into the mode of thankfulness. Thankful that I can count on it being warm today. that it is still summer. that I can ride my moto today. that I can swim. that I can wear a tank top, that I can go to city park and run with my barefeet in the grass, that I will be hot!
I take a hot shower. I love my shower. It makes me think of Spain, even though I've never been. Blue tile everywhere, light streaming in from the skylight. Quirky, small. Blue. I love it. How lucky am I? To have found this special European, quaint space in the middle of mid-western city on the plains. Home to suburbia and condos, breeding ground for right angles. Good ole Denver. Where people curiously seem to want to move to.
Crashing sound outside. Car crash? My imagination runs wild. blood, mangled bodies, blood curling screams, people's days ruined, no weeks ruined……wait, no years ruined. Ugg no more thinking about this. Good news, there was No crunchy metal sound though (forever etched into my sound memory) so I think its not a car crash, thank goodness. construction worker probably just dropped something onto something. (lots of constructing going on) I gotta get outa the city. Crashes, crowded, condos going up everywhere I look, stop and go traffic to get to the mountains, marijuana and marijuana loving people all numbed out everywhere, me anxious, fear of crashes, fear of someone stealing my bike or moto, fear of landlord raising my rent, yeah I want to go to where I hear the birds singing.
Why haven't I heard the birds singing recently? In the spring they are a chirpy bunch but…..I haven't heard that for awhile.
half hour later a bus turns onto my street. That never happens. why is a bus turning onto my street. Traffic is being redirected down my street. crap. it was a crash.
I step out my door and onto the iconic Colfax ave, my backyard. Police cars, flashing lights (why didn't I hear the sirens?) I walk past the smashed cars and the lingering 2 groups of people who were each in one of the smashed cars. ah man. I avert my gaze. I would be so uncomfortable if I just crashed my car, having people curiously peer at my smashed car, then to me, then back to my smashed car. I turn as soon as I can down the next street.
I think about how in an instant, the all important things that they were rushing to get to have to be changed. They have to. No matter how important they were, they can't get there. Their cars are smashed and they are lucky to be alive. Those things they needed to get to…..well, they just have to wait. and they CAN wait. miraculously. They CAN wait. It will work out, somehow, someway. always. small miracles.
Tears come to my eyes. I feel sorry for them, for all they are suddenly faced with. and………I am terribly scared of crashing. More so…..of people, I love crashing. Here I am moto chic, promoting everyone to get on their moto and zoom. feel the wind in your hair and taste the freedom on your finger tips. Yes!! Yess! mooore Pleeease!!
but I am terrified of crashing.
I haven't walked down this block in awhile. Whoa! I love love love the landscaping in the yard of that red barn shaped house. All the green looks spectacular against the Red. The the big old beautiful tree in front makes dreamy shade. What are those people like? How do they have time to tend their yard? How is it, that aesthetically and feeling wise, they have entirely nailed it. There scene is peaceful, beautiful, shady, delicious smelling, rejuvenating. Perfection. Seriously. How did they manage to absolutely nail it with the amazingness of their yard? A lot of touches came together seamlessly, for it to feel and look the way it does. The people in the house must be amazing. Maybe she is a shaman. Well,they definitely have a green thumb.
Drink coffee out of my special mug. Today feels special. I am to leave my home soon, in a quest to create a healthier home. I love it here. I will miss it. Yesterday I rode my bike 20 miles and went swimming. Yes. Nothing I rather be doing than that! I'm simple like that. That, is my favorite thing to do.
Thank you for my life. I am happy to be alive. I love it. It is beautiful….this being human thing, though precarious as it is….is truly a beautiful experience :-).

Go USA!!!! ~ continued ~

It was truly a Wonderful thing, USA winning the world cup! I feel so much connection to the game of soccer. I love the worldly competition and I love that women playing soccer seems so normal thanks to tons of TV coverage. If only I had this when I was playing soccer, I really think it would have improved my game (and my enthusiasm for the game!)

I spent June 20th in a cabin* in the mountains * with Amy and Julia. It was a beautiful place to be with goof *and muse* I was especially happy to be there, having escaped the bustle of the busy* city, sweltering in the beginning days of good ole summer time heat.
We slept out on the deck and gazed at the wondrously beautiful sky filled with stars.
And we Ate
*cabin – very large. In fact it wasn't a cabin it was a muy grande, open awesome house (cabin sounds better)
**mountains – lush, green,calm, delicious breezy cool air, wild life everywhere, streams burbling luring you to sleep at night
***goof – Amy
****Muse – Julia
*****Very – lots and lots and lots and lots of people seem to be moving to Denver…..lots. hmmm maybe our new marijuana laws? or the plethora of pristine mountain adventures to be had, or the art? or the music? or the good food?…..who knows. but Denver is booming and so is the traffic.

That would be a dream (of sorts) come true for me.
I wouldn't want to spend all the time it takes to be a professional at acrobatics…….thus missing out on all the other experiences life has to offer – BUT – what I wouldn't give, to be able to swing around at death defying heights and have such a tuned body that I can do amazing magical shit!
yes. I would love that
But maybe….I could do something like this! (stayed tuned for pictures! especially you bobcat…I'm thinking this would be an excellent contender for a cape photo)
not quite sure I could pull this one off though…….
Scott and I just went to a performance. (Kurios) Whoa. cirque du soleil really pushes my idea of reality, what I think is humanly possible, my imagination. Wow. so much WOW. My dreams were outrageous that night and super inspiring. Now to integrate this WOW inspiration into my life……….

Denver Storm
June 26th, 2015 · La Vida
A big storm came through Denver yesterday. Flooding, tornadoes, huge hail and Lighting. Sooo exciting. Storms can be so utterly delicious. It came in quickly, just after we had moved my dining room table outside for the summer (thanks for your help Dad!) And he snapped some photos, so I have the rare experience of having a before and after shot! roughly 2 hours in between them.
And the one below, is during. Woopie!
At this point, people were cramming to get into a covered garage so their cars didn't sustain hail damage (huge bits of hail were torpedoing down) and whole food employees were hectically (freaking out-edly) shuffling shocked customers into the tornado shelter (the basement) and sirens were going off and you couldn't see a thing!! And the breeze. ah the breeze on my face as I looked out at the scene. blissful. ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!

Peace requires compromise and please show me what compromise or concessions the palestinians are willing to make. NONE. 97% of the west bank , Jerusalem as it's capital was apparently not enough. Instead an intifada. The sooner they realize that right of return and certain other issues are just not happening the sooner there might be peace. But then again, who are the Israelis making peace with at this point? Does anyone know? Is it hamas or fatah? How do you make peace with a gov't that calls for your destruction? Please help me with this all you Israel haters. If withdrawing from Gaza and getting rockets in return is what peace looks like, let there not be peace.

The Good News When Your Partner Doesn't Push For Sex!
The Good News When Your Partner Doesn't Push For Sex!
The Good News When Your Partner Doesn't Push For Sex!
Leon and Maya liked each other and felt comfortable around one another. They could talk about anything and had talked about past relationships. Somehow they found comfort in each other, commiserating, feeling understood, and cared for. They had one night of sex, enjoyed it, but then it stopped.
Leon spent hours and hours with Maya at her place, wrapping himself around her in bed, eating, watching movies, going out and just hanging around. It was warm and honest. When he left Leon kept in touch by phone and text messages, as did Maya. Their connection remained continuous, but Maya found herself obsessed with Leon's lack of interest in having sex.
- Maya focused on the absence of sex, not on his hours of affection and warmth.
- Maya focused on the absence of sex, not on his giving of himself to her for days and nights.
- Maya focused on the absence of intercourse not Leon's exclusive choice of companion and confidant in her.
Maya's dissatisfaction and irritability brought a tension to the relationship making it uneasy causing damage to the delicate emotional bond that was forming. Leon felt he was wanted just as a stud to service Maya and the pressure made him back off. Maya felt rejected - undeservingly so, and chalked it up to yet another failed encounter with men in the romantic arena.
Why was sex so important to Maya?
Having a man in the intimate act of sex was the ultimate act of possession and exclusiveness. He couldn't possibly be elsewhere if he was having intercourse with her. During the sex act Maya could bask in the security of owning him, mind, body, and soul.
A few minutes later when the sex act was over and he left, she was bereft again, waiting for the next time they had sex. She never had the experience of having an emotional connection and then adding the physical intimacy later. Maya had it backwards, starting from sex and then working up to the bond.
Why no sex was the crucial step in developing the solid bond
Leon and Maya had a lot going for them. They were friends, confidants, in the same professional circles and fond of the same leisure activities. That too was a great set of compatibility factors to mess with. The sex would have separated their emotional and social bond making it about releasing physical tension, not about loving and caring. So the sex stopped to make sure that the foundation for a healthy, long term stable relationship could be formed, where sex would be included as a wonderful addition.
As Maya began to value what Leon was giving her other than sex, she felt loved and cared for, taking the pressure off Leon. He too felt that he was wanted for himself, not just his sexual prowess.
Maya and Leon are now in a long term stable relationship, close emotionally, and enjoying a satisfying healthy sex life that's about love and connection. Not just an act of fulfilling an expectation that was screwed up in the first place.

Former PA to Premier League boss Scudamore says she blew the whistle on his sexist emails because they left her feeling 'humiliated, belittled and disgusted'
- Richard Scudamore's PA says she felt 'humiliated' by sexist emails
- Rani Abraham, 41,'felt a duty' to reveal his messages about women
- The Premier League boss joked about women to male colleagues
The woman who exposed sexist emails by football chief Richard Scudamore said yesterday she blew the whistle because she felt 'humiliated, belittled and disgusted'.
Rani Abraham, Scuadmore's former PA, said she felt a duty to reveal his crude messages about women.
In public, Scudamore, the £2.5million-a-year chief executive of the Premier League, likes to be seen as a champion of equality.
Scroll down for video
Sexist: Premier League boss Richard Scuadmore's former personal assistant Rani Abraham, 41, said she felt a duty to reveal his crude messages about women
But he may face action as a backlash grows to sleazy emails he wrote mocking 'female irrationality'.
A crunch meeting of football chiefs is to be held Monday and Tuesday, another meeting will be chaired by Football Association director Heather Rabbatts – the most powerful woman in English football - who has already called for Scudamore to consider his position in light of 'growing evidence of a closed culture of sexism' at the Premier League.
Scudamore has already apologised for his emails, sent to senior male colleagues, in which there were jokes about 'big t****d broads', 'irrational' women and one in which he dubbed a former girlfriend a 'double decker' – because she was 'happy for you to play upstairs but her Dad got angry if you went below'.
Miss Abraham, 41, said she had read the emails because they were automatically forwarded to her as part of her job as Scudamore's PA. She first revealed them in the Sunday Mirror a week ago.
Yesterday she explained to the same paper she had done it because she was shocked by the emails. She said: 'I found it disgusting, vulgar and very disrespectful. I felt I didn't want to see Richard if that was how he felt about women.
Sexist: Premier League boss Richard Scuadmore has apologised, but may face action as a backlash grows to sleazy emails he wrote mocking 'female irrationality'
'I was brought up in a family where women were treated with respect.' She added: 'Scudamore started talking about China's one-child policy being a way to stop women becoming more irrational after having children.
'I thought, he's had five children. He's talking about his wife. How does his wife feel? His wife has been humiliated, so have his daughters.'
She said: 'For those people who've attacked me for saying they were just "jokes", I wonder how they would feel if their wife or girlfriend or daughter had to read messages like that.
'And how would they feel if those messages were written about their wife or girlfriend or daughter?' She said she felt the Premier League, 'with all its money and influence', was trying to 'turn the fire on me to deflect from what he's done'.
Scudamore – described as the most powerful man in English football - has been boss of the Premier League since 1999.
The row has thrown a spotlight on his claims that it strives to be 'at the leading edge' of the 'whole equality agenda'. He has pledged £2.4million to invest in women's football.
But Casey Stoney, England women's captain, said: 'We are trying to get to a world without discrimination and to have somebody in such a high position in football making derogatory comments about females is not acceptable.'
Sorry: The £2.5million-a-year chief executive of the Premier League has apologized for the emails, which were sent to senior male colleagues joking about 'big t****d broads'
And Anna Kessel, chair of Women in Football, said: 'Women are shocked and dismayed both by the content of those emails and by the reaction of the football authorities in dealing with this matter.'
Dame Tessa Jowell, former Olympics minister, has said his remarks 'undermine' his championing of women's football.
Critique: England women¿s captain Casey Stoney said the comments made by Scudamore were unacceptable
Several other England women internationals have expressed outrage too, while FA chairman Greg Dyke called them 'totally inappropriate'.
Sponsor Barclays has also expressed its 'disappointment' to the Premier League - raising the stakes ahead of Monday's meeting of the League's audit and remuneration committee, which has the power to reprimand Scudamore.
The football boss, who lives with his wife Catherine in a £1.8million home in Cirencester, has apologised for his 'inappropriate' emails but said the messages were 'private email exchanges between colleagues and friends'.
Yesterday the Premier League said in a statement: 'We do not recognise this characterisation of the working environment at the Premier League, nor do we believe that it can be supported by the facts.
'The chief executive has already apologised for any offence caused and a proper review of all the evidence is now under way within the Premier League's established and rigorous procedures.
'This process is not yet concluded and it is therefore not possible to offer comments in detail at this stage.
'However we will make a further statement in due course 'The Premier League continues to be fully committed to treating all staff fairly and on merit, regardless of gender.'

Citibank's 'Don't Bank Don't Tell' Policy Exposed By Fabulis Social Networkby Ron Callari
In the year 2010, is it possible for a financial institution to close a business account of an organization due to race, creed or sexual preference? Since Citibank has taken this unprecedented step with a gay social network due to what they deemed as "objectionable content" posted on the new startup fabulis' blog - wouldn't logic indicate they could do the same thing to a church group or a black civics organization?

Are they too late to the the social networking party or will the Twittahoo alliance resurrect this Rumpelstiltskin?
Google Buzz Class-Action Lawsuit Could Cause Cloudburst?by Ron Callari

Even though Google responded quickly to remedy the situation, some feel it was too little to late from a company that consistently makes up its own rules.

Former Friendster Founder Launches PlacePopby Ron Callari

While a good number of Location-based social networks (LBSs) with their check-in functionality and game-like components are filling this void, is there room for latecomers like PlacePop to enter this already crowded field?

Lineups out: Can Lewandowski, Reus work Dortmund miracle against Real?
Apr 8, 2014, 2:16 PM EDT
It is, of course, possible that Dortmund overcomes a three-goal deficit to beat Real Madrid in their UEFA Champions League quarterfinal second leg on Tuesday. Stranger things have happened than a strong offensive team scoring a bunch of goals.
But there's no question it will not only take the return of Robert Lewandowski but also a pure performance that's as perfect as it is potent.
Real counters without Cristiano Ronaldo but with plenty of experience and Gareth Bale, who's fresh off a long-range hammer goal.

Short Cuts
Archbishop of Cologne, Germany, slain by hired assassins and venerated as a martyr. He was the son of the count of Berg and became the possessor of many benefices. Engelbert was excommunicated but was restored into union with the Church. He became the archbishop of Cologne in 1217, at the age of thirty. In this office he proved his mettle and became tutor to the son of Emperor Frederick II. In 1222 he crowned Henry King of the Romans. Engelbert was slain by his cousin Frederick, whom he had thwarted in an attempt to steal from the nuns of Essen. Engelbert was ambushed at Gevelsberg and murdered on November 7.

Noriaki Kasai wants to ski jump until he's 50
Apr 4, 2014, 10:06 AM EDT
Father Time-defying ski jumper Noriaki Kasai is nowhere near finished with his career at age 41.
"I'll be 45 at the time of the next Olympics, and 49 for the one after that," Kasai said Friday, according to the Japan Times. "It [managing that] would be no different from what I've been doing up until now.
"If my body permits, I want to keep going until I'm 50."
Kasai is coming off his seventh and most productive Olympics. He won silver in the large hill in Sochi and bronze in the team event, his second and third Olympic medals to add to his 1994 team event silver.
Kasai could very well be the best Japanese ski jumper for the next few years. He was the only Japan man to finish in the 20 of the World Cup standings this year (he was fifth) and the top 10 in both individual Olympic events.
In Sochi, Kasai and Russian luger Albert Demtschenko became the first athletes to compete in seven Winter Olympics.
The Summer record is 10, held by Canadian equestrian rider Ian Millar, who competed in the London Olympics.

BEIJING (Reuters) - China Unicom, the country's second-largest mobile carrier, expects to begin selling Apple Inc's latest iPhones this year and has set an ambitious target of having 100 million 3G users by end-2012 as it tries to attract high-end users to lift profits.
"The iPhone 5 is currently being tested by the authorities, and we'll begin selling it once it has been approved," China Unicom chairman Chang Xiaobing told a news conference.
China Unicom (Hong Kong) Ltd was the first Chinese mobile operator to carry iPhones in 2009, but lost its exclusivity when China Telecom Corp Ltd signed a similar contract with Apple this year.
Helped by iPhones, China Unicom has seen its number of 3G users rise steadily, reaching 66.9 million in the first nine months, representing about 30 percent of total subscribers, company data showed.
Chang said the carrier, which sold 33 million smartphones through its network so far this year, aimed to have 100 million 3G users this year, which will be a huge jump from the current figure.
The country's three carriers -- China Mobile Ltd, China Unicom and China Telecom -- have been trying to upgrade their mobile networks to boost data usage among increasingly tech-savvy Chinese consumers.
China Mobile, whose 3G technology lags its two rivals', has been building its 4G network and conducting trials. Industry observers expect China to only start giving out 4G licenses in late 2013 and 2014.
"China will eventually have a 4G mobile network; the only question is when. Whether China chooses to build it sooner or later, I believe the decision made will be the correct one," Chang said.
China Unicom's shares traded down 1.3 percent, lagging China Mobile, China Telecom and the main Hang Seng Index.

You do have a rating. Scroll down your live and on line page and look at "current". If you run your cursor over your name above it will show your live rating.
I honestly have never cared for a rating and never will. The strength of a player is all in their head. One who plays well plays well, and one who does not, will lose. That's my philosophy, and I have never deterred from it. Now ratings can give you a general idea of the strength of a player, but they can never be the thing that dictates our strength. Just look at GM Walter Brown losing to a 1500 player on the Ruy Lopez Berlin Wall Fishing Pole trap. It's inituition, quickness, tactics, and strategy that win games.
its all the good u said!!
@BLS, what you say is correct with the underlying phrase being 'that ratings do not dictate ones strengh'. They are an indicator and help greatly in tourneys when players are matched up. Having said that, there are always the mis-matches and these are the ones that have the potential to create upsets and so often do.
I did say that were indicators.
As did I in statement # 1170!
Damn, this is a long thread. ;P
In playing my first game on Chess.com, I received a rating of 1200, before I played. Why, and how was that arrived at?
dont play WET GLOVES>he is very unprofessional

Please tell me why? i'd never lie every one in the fight
Tour Mui Ne
hey u got the right criteria of a good chess fighter as u will never tell a lie!! hats off !!!
Indeed a chess rating does not really measure "Chess Strength" because such a thing does not even exist. All it does is measure past performance. End of story.
The only thing that matters in Chess is the moves on the board. Never let a number or a title defeat you or let it intimidate you in anyway. Again, all that matters is the moves on the board.
Best moves is key to win.
I was going to mention the difference in the ratings you can get on different chess sites, but there are so many variables, including how much time you devote to the games, that comparisons are meaningless.
variables may be sort of recipe but devotion and correct move remains there as pivotal!!
Try to avoid wet gloves!! appriciate. Rating 1200 was a standard starting point!! U need to accept a certain point to be ur stand to start.Pl go thru CHESS .COM'S introductory discussion by Erik on the top of this forum page to make ur understanding certain.
Computer analysis most often gives my games 30+% of inaccuracies, mistakes and blunders, and yet I am rated in the top 2% (turn-based). Players rated 2200+ still make their share of mistakes. When I am stuck for a good move, I try to avoid making a really bad move. Making the "best moves" constantly is a pipe dream.
My humble goal within 3 years is to reach 1500 Elo. I don't think I will beat many players. Is it still possible to get a reasonably accurate rating?
I assume you mean over the board chess. You'd need to play a large number of games (maybe 50) against a variety of opponents to achieve a reasonably accurate rating, IMHO. According to my turn-based Glicko RD = 61, meaning there is a good degree of confidence that my playing strength is + or - 122 points, (between 1892 and 2136) and I've played about 300 games.
I will be prepared to play dozens and dozens of games. ;) Thanks.
for that we wish u get thru success!!
