Research launched today by the Startup Genome and Telefónica Digital reveals that while Silicon Valley is still the world's largest and most-influential start-up ecosystem, it no longer wields the power and influence it once did. Flourishing communities in Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia have grown considerably over recent years and are now beginning to challenge Silicon Valley's domination in technology innovation.
The Startup Ecosystem Report 2012 argues that this trend suggests that countries are shifting from service-based economies to become increasingly driven by a new generation of fast-moving software and technology organisations.
The report finds that Tel Aviv, a highly advanced ecosystem, is the leading alternative to Silicon Valley, while on Silicon Valley's doorstep, flourishing communities in New York and Los Angeles mean the USA is home to three of the largest ecosystems in the world. Across the Atlantic, London is by far the largest startup ecosystem in Europe, although its output is still just a third of that of Silicon Valley. Outside of the more traditional markets, Sao Paulo's startup ecosystem is growing rapidly and creates more jobs for the local community than Silicon Valley does for its own.
The report identifies the ecosystem factors which have contributed to the success of Silicon Valley and uses it as a baseline to compare how well suited other cities are to fostering entrepreneurs. On this basis the top 20 start-up ecosystems in the world are:
1. Silicon Valley
2. Tel Aviv
3. Los Angeles
4. Seattle
5. New York City
6. Boston
7. London
8. Toronto
9. Vancouver
10. Chicago
11. Paris
12. Sydney
13. Sao Paulo
14. Moscow
15. Berlin
16. Waterloo (Canada)
17. Singapore
18. Melbourne
19. Bangalore
20. Santiago
In-depth research provides tangible findings for entrepreneurs, investors and policy makers
The Startup Genome, in partnership with Telefonica Digital, engaged with more than 50,000 entrepreneurs across the world to understand how well placed different ecosystems are to support the development and success of startups. Users of the StartupCompass.co - a business intelligence tool for startups - submitted information on their organisations based upon a range of factors, including financial, sales, marketing, product, business model, team, and market information.
Some of the key findings of the report are as follows:
Even well-developed ecosystems such as New York and London are suffering from a funding gap: they each have more than 70% less 'risk' capital available for early-stage, pre-product-market fit startups
Silicon Valley's success to date can be attributed in part to the attitude of its entrepreneurs. Founders in Silicon Valley work longer than anywhere else, with an average day lasting 9.94 hours. Motivationally, they tend to be driven by impact rather than product
New York can claim to be the global capital for female tech entrepreneurs. Nearly a fifth of New York's entrepreneurs are women and it is home to twice as many female-run startups as Silicon Valley
Santiago is a great example of an ecosystem kick-started by policy makers, with Start-up Chile creating a strong support network for entrepreneurs. Santiago startups have 4.81 mentors on average, nearly 25% more than Silicon Valley
Silicon Valley has left its imprint on all global startup ecosystems. Berlin (4%) and Sao Paulo (7%) have the least founders that lived in Silicon Valley, Singapore (33%) and Waterloo (35%) have the most entrepreneurs that were previously based in Silicon Valley
Even though Singapore has a relatively well-established funding environment, the risk tolerance of founders is the lowest within the top 20 ecosystems
Mapping key startup trends around the world
"I am really excited to reveal these insights around how global technology startup ecosystems stack up. Our hope is by completing the first data-driven, comparative study of this global phenomenon we will help to facilitate a constructive public dialogue," explained Bjoern Lasse Herrmann, CEO of the Startup Genome. "We created this report for three reasons: firstly, to put a spotlight on the emerging hotspots of technology entrepreneurship that will be responsible for powering a massive global socio-economic structural shift; secondly, to further democratise the knowledge necessary to help spread the merits of Silicon Valley; and thirdly, to give actionable insights to entrepreneurs, investors, corporate development departments and policy makers."
Gonzalo Martin-Villa, CEO of Wayra, Telefónica Digital's global startup accelerator, said: "These results tangibly demonstrate how entrepreneurship is flourishing all over the world. We are now seeing emerging ecosystems beginning to act as real viable alternatives to the traditional centres of technology innovation. This is incredibly exciting, since it suggests that, increasingly, the necessary support infrastructures are in place the world over for bright minds to turn their ideas into reality."
Steve Blank, a Silicon Valley serial entrepreneur and contributor to the report, said: "The democratisation of entrepreneurship from Silicon Valley and from Startup Ecosystems all over the world is creating new strategies and structures for innovation and disruption. The strategy lessons that we learn from these startups will light the way for a massive restructuring of all corporate organisations in the next 40 years. Only then will we look back and realise that we were just beginning the economic revolution of the wired world."

About the Startup Genome
The Startup Genome (http://blog.startupcompass.co/) was inspired by the global explosion of entrepreneurship and Kauffman's landmark study from 2010 that showed U.S. job growth was driven almost entirely by startups. In 2011 the company set out to help address the continuing very high failure rate of startups and to accelerate the pace of innovation by transforming the business world from gut-driven to data-driven. The Startup Genome's business intelligence product, Startup Compass (http://startupcompass.co/), is now being used by tens of thousands of software businesses around the world, providing benchmarks and recommendations to help entrepreneurs and executives to make decisions and allocate resources under conditions of high uncertainty. Since its inception the Startup Genome, together with researchers from UC Berkeley, Oxford, and Stanford, and entrepreneurial thought leaders like Steve Blank, has also released a number of well-regarded reports on the startup lifecycle, the success and failure of startups, and startup ecosystems, that have been adopted into the curriculum of more than 100 universities, incubators and accelerators.

Bonser, Lowrie to start season on D.L.
|03.31.10 at 1:25 pm ET
Red Sox pitcher Boof Bonser and infielder Jed Lowrie were both placed on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to March 26. Bonser, who missed all of 2009 after undergoing shoulder surgery, landed on the D.L. with a right groin strain that he incurred on March 22 in an outing against the Rays. Lowrie landed on the shelf due to his ongoing recovery from mononucleosis.
Lowrie was already expected to start the year in the minors, so his presence on the disabled list does not significantly impact the team's major league roster. Bonser's trip to the D.L., on the other hand, removes him (at least temporarily) from the competition for the Red Sox' last two bullpen spots. That competition currently features right-handers Scott Atchison and Joe Nelson and left-handers Alan Embree and Scott Schoeneweis. Atchison is the only one of those pitchers with options remaining, suggesting that he would be the easiest to move between the majors and minors if Bonser is expected to be available shortly after the start of the season.
Bonser was 0-2 with an 11.57 ERA in four Grapefruit League appearances (7 innings) this spring. Lowrie was 2-for-9 in nine Grapefruit League plate appearances, and last played on March 11.

Self pity? No, Owen is sorry for his mates
PAUL HAYWARD in Baden-Baden, Daily Mail
Last updated at 10:52 22 June 2006
Self-pity was absent from the swirl of emotions that attacked England's senior striker as he faced up to at least five months on the sidelines. Guilt, though, played a heavy role, despite the freakish nature of his injury.
Even those closest to him were astonished to find him feeling sorry for others but not himself. Owen flew back to England yesterday already plotting his recovery and saying he wanted to phone his supporters to express his regret at being carted out of the tournament.
For the country's current leading scorer, who will be 30 when the next World Cup comes round, a few days of wallowing would have seemed excusable to those who saw him crumple less than a minute into Tuesday night's 2-2 draw with Sweden in Cologne.
After buckling just inside the touchline, Owen rolled off like a wounded soldier seeking shelter in a trench.
As someone who fought in boxing rings at the age of 10, he learned early how to conceal pain. Only proper agony could have prompted him to roll off the field and clutch his face. But in his camp yesterday, there was no sense that he sees this latest injury as a personal tragedy or a threat to his career.
To more sensitive souls, Owen's awful luck added a human dimension to England's faltering efforts to win this World Cup.
Sven Goran Eriksson lost a forward who has brought him 25 goals in five seasons. The country lost an assassin who is only 13 behind Sir Bobby Charlton's all-time England record of 49.
Newcastle United lost a £16million acquisition who was meant to be Alan Shearer's successor as the idol of the Toon. Since August, when he joined from Real Madrid, Owen has made 10 Newcastle starts and a further one appearance as a substitute.
Last but not least, the Owen clan had their family dream snatched away.
As England edge towards a 4-5-1 formation, with Wayne Rooney as the lone striker and Owen Hargreaves in a midfield holding role, Owen may look to Shearer's favourite knee surgeon, Dr Richard Steadman of Vail, Colorado, who is credited with saving the Geordie legend's career.
Shearer's recovery from cruciate ligament damage will be Owen's template. Natural burning pace will be the hardest asset to protect.
Glenn Roeder, the Newcastle manager and a survivor of major brain surgery, said: 'Nobody knows better than me what it's like to be struck by a thunderbolt and how suddenly your life can be chopped away from under you.
'But the measure of a man is how he picks himself up and comes back. In that sense, Michael Owen is a big man and he will come back.'
'I'm clearly sorry to be leaving the lads in Germany, but I'm convinced they can go on and achieve success'
Roeder emphasised Owen's mental strength, which will provide a barrier against those predicting the end of his reign as England's No 1 in the position.
One cold day in January 2004, Owen's now wife Louise was crushed by a horse that reared up and collapsed on top of her. Her pelvis was shattered and she lay in the dirt, shaking violently.
Owen was first on the scene and was organised, almost businesslike. Later he recalled: 'Though it hurt me to see her in such agony, she needed me to think, not break down sobbing. She needed me to cope.'
That steeliness was apparent in his reaction to Tuesday's calamity, which left him needing an operation plus long months of recuperation. Since Christmas, he has lost four months to a broken metatarsal and now must trudge through more weeks of repetitive leg exercises and physio. All the more reason to marvel at his sanguine reaction to this brutal mishap.
Owen loves horse racing, as well all know, but not enough to see watching Royal Ascot on his home TV as an adequate replacement for playing in a World Cup at the age of 26.
In a statement, he said: 'I'm clearly sorry to be leaving the lads in Germany, but I'm convinced they can go on and achieve success. I'll be following all the matches very closely and giving them my full support, hopefully all the way to Berlin.'
When the stretcher bearers carried him off, a few other England players felt the rumble of time's chariot. David Beckham will be 35 in 2010 and is a rank outsider to be in the England squad for South Africa. Even Euro 2008 looked beyond him in Cologne.
Gary Neville, too, is 31. Frank Lampard was 28 on Tuesday. The children of the 70s don't have long left in their prime.
For several of Eriksson's most senior players, Germany could be the end of the World Cup line. For them, the now-or-never rhetoric is more than hot air.
In a fatalistic culture, few of us plan far ahead. Owen, the ultimate stoic, can still glimpse Euro 2008, 2010 and Charlton's England record, but they probably seemed less well-defined through the moisture that pain brought to his eyes.

Utah Democratic Party's LDS caucus calls for a day of fasting and prayer
David Goldman, ASSOCIATED PRESS
SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah Democratic Party's LDS caucus announced a call Tuesday for a day of fasting and prayer this Sunday to help heal the nation's political divisiveness.
"Bipartisanship and civility are Christian values so it makes sense for us in a religious sense to be fasting for these values," said Crystal Young-Otterstrom, chairwoman of the LDS Dems Caucus.
She said members of the caucus considered holding the fast earlier this fall but chose to wait until after the election so it would be clear the intent was not to favor a particular political party or candidate.
"With this fast, we're not saying God favors one party over another, or that God favors one candidate over another," Young-Otterstrom said. "But we are saying these are values, everybody's values, and we think they're important."
The vice chairman of the caucus, Steven Olsen, said there was concern that any pre-election effort might be confused with a private email reportedly circulated through Western states urging LDS Church members to fast in support of GOP presidential candidate and fellow Mormon Mitt Romney.
"That was definitely part of the discussion," Olsen said. He said now that Romney has lost, Mormons "are in a unique position to lead the nation in healing the divisiveness that has plagued our nation the last few years."
He said he hopes a fast will serve as a spark "to put aside our political ideologies and be more humble and look for common-sense solutions based on the teachings of the gospel."
There are about 1,700 members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who are Democrats on the caucus email list, Olsen said.
Longtime Democrat Jan Douglas, a volunteer for the party's U.S. Senate candidate, Scott Howell, came up with the initial idea for the fast. She said she wanted LDS Democrats to fast and pray for candidates and the sacrifices they make.
Douglas wasn't enthusiastic about having to wait until after the election.
"My first thought was, 'Eh, you're a day late and a dollar short,'" she said. "I think we have this mindset that, 'Oh, we can't do that because we're mixing state and church.' But that's what it's all about. We've got to come together."
LDS Church spokesman Scott Trotter said, "While the Church does not have a comment on the proposed fast, Church leaders have invited Americans everywhere to pray for elected officials and other public servants as they lead us through difficult times."
Utah State Democratic Party Chairman Jim Dabakis said the party doesn't get involved in caucus activities but he said he liked the idea of the fast.
"I'm a Utah Democrat. We accept and are grateful and appreciative of help anywhere we can get it," Dabakis said.
Utah GOP Chairman Thomas Wright was also supportive of "any movement to restore civility and eliminate divisiveness in politics. That's what we should all be striving for."

'What Val and I have is unexplainable': Kelly Monaco and partner's sizzling chemistry fuels romance rumours on DWTS... as she narrowly escapes injury after nasty fall
Their chemistry and flirtatiousness has already been the talk of this all-star season of Dancing With The Stars.
And Kelly Monaco and her partner Valentin Chmerkovskiy did nothing to dispel the rumours of romance during Monday night's sizzling showdown.
In behind-the-scenes rehearsal footage, the couple flirted with each other, with Val declaring that dancing with Kelly had been: 'A life changing experience for me.'
Sizzling chemistry: Monday night's edition of Dancing with the Stars did nothing to quell the rumours of romance between Kelly Monaco and partner Val Chmerkovskiy, who ended their dance with a mock proposal
'Professionally, clearly I've never been as successful on the show as I have this season,' he said as he enjoyed a drink with his dance partner.
'And personally. - I hope that we
continue to stay in touch and do a lot more things after the season,' he
said with a flirty smile, leading Kelly to grin back: 'Of course I feel
the same!'
She then added later to the camera: 'I did not expect to have such a great connection with Val. What Val and I have, it's unexplainable. People don't know what it is, and we kind of don't know what it is - it just works.'
Real life romance? Val and Kelly discussed their 'unexplainable' relationship during rehearsals before taking to the floor in perfect synchrony
Solid scores: The couple's foxtrot and cha cha cha earned them a 27 total from the judges
However, things didn't all go
smoothly, with Kelly nearly suffering a serious injury as she slammed
face first into the floor from over six foot during rehearsal for a
group dance.
The actress, who made her name on TV's General Hospital, was lucky not to end up in a ward herself as cameras caught her slamming into the ground after partner Valentin Chmerkovskiy threw her over his head during rehearsals.
Luckily she landed on a padded mat, but the nasty accident seemed to show her neck snapping back as she landed - and left her in tears, sobbing: 'It hurts to breathe.'
But he actress was soon back on her feet - and amazingly escaped serious injury.'I'm super hurt,' she told Val. 'I'm just tough.'
Flirtatious: Val and Kelly said they had a great relationship but could not explain their sizzling chemistry
But they also made it clear such intense emotions are not always easy to control.
'We have a great relationship but it
doesn't mean that we come in here and we're all just smiles and
laughter,' Val admitted, over clips of them fighting.
'We're always like a hairline away from
ripping each other's faces off. But because we are respecting individuals
we always deal with it in a civil manner.'
Kelly admitted: 'Rehearsals can get a little intense because Val and I care about the competition, we care about each other and we care are both really passionate about what we are doing.'
Rehearsal mishap: Kelly went flying through the air during a practice for the group dance marathon
Face first: Kelly told Val it hurt to breathe after falling face first during practice
Tearful: Val comforted Kelly after the throw went wrong in rehearsals
Even co-host Brooke Burke Charvet quizzed them on their relationship following their fusion dance 'I don't know what's going on with the two of you but you're making me fall in love with you.
'I mean, Val's proposing, you had steamy
moments in the contemporary dance, a passion kiss in the tango - at the
rate the two of you going what can we expect in the finale?'
'Children,' Val replied instantaneously with a wink.
The judges had been impressed with their dance, with Bruno gushing: 'Oh my darling
you've got that bootie working overtime haven't you. That was a flashy
cha cha. Plenty of flash, and plenty of dash. You maintained the sophistication of the foxtrot and the cheekiness of the cha cha cha.'
Carrie Ann also called it 'tight and sexy and overall beautiful' as they got a 27 score.
What is next for you? Brooke Burke quizzed the partners on their relationship, telling them: 'I'm falling in love with you'
The night wasn't free of injury for the professionals, with Derek Hough having to step down for the week due to a recurring neck injury.
His partner, ex-gymnast Shawn Johnson reunited
for the week with Mark Ballas, the dance pro she partnered up with on her previous season.
The challenge was not only to perform two different dance styles for 'fusion week' in one routine, but Shawn also had to listen to both Mark and Derek's ideas for the combination of a tango with a Pasa Doble.
Sitting it out: Doctors advised Derek Hough to take a week's rest, leaving Mark Ballas to help choreograph his dance with Shawn Johnson
Bend it like Johnson: The gymnast showed off her flexibility during her dance with Mark
'They're both throwing ideas out about
what's going to work best, but it's kind of like having two chefs in the
kitchen,' she complained. 'It's really difficult to follow.
'This week is chaos. I have to learn two
full dances, we have the marathon dance, Derek's hurt, I have a new
partner, and not to mention I'm still dealing with my knee injury - so
it's pretty crazy.'
But the star - wearing a stunning long
black dress with a skin-coloured patch making it look fully open at the
front - stunned the trio of judges.
'If there's a picture or a video of what Dance Fusion is supposed to be in the dictionary - THAT was a fusion,' Carrie Ann Inaba gushed. 'So seamlessly intertwined, not a step missed - fantastic!'
A two man girl: Shawn told Brooke she would 'choose her' as her dance partner after being asked which professional she preferred
Meanwhile referring to the presidential
election, Len Goodman said: 'I tell you, I'm an English person - I can't
vote tomorrow but I'm voting for you, that was fantastic.'
Bruno was equally as excited: 'Shawn, the queen of the night. As fusions go that was flawless. It was just sublime.'
After they got their perfect tens, Derek hid any jealousy, saying: 'I'll be back next week - it was tough sitting out but I'm so proud of them.'
Shawn refused to compare her two
dance partners. Asked by Brooke which of them was the better partner,
she instead diplomatically hugged Brooke and said: 'I'll take you!'
Nearly perfect: Melissa Rycroft and Tony Dovoloni's rendition of the tango and cha cha cha earned them a ten and two 9.5s from the judges
Despite getting a perfect score of 30, the gymnast still did not end the night at the top of the leader board, as she only came third as all the competitors danced in a Swing Dance Marathon, getting seven points to winner Melissa Rycroft's 10.
Melissa Rycroft and partner Tony Dovolani ended the night top of the leader board following their dance and also winning the Swing Dance Marathon to close the show.
Tony was seen on Skype with his wife
Lina Dovolani, who is still on the East Coast with their children after
Superstorm Sandy and who told him: 'We were stranded in the house
because there were a lot of tress down, a lot of power-lines down.
Everyone kind of in a state of shock.'
Top of the pops: Melissa and Tony's determination to do well this week paid off when they ended up top of the leaderboard
Nearing perfection: The couple were overjoyed to receive their first ten score
Melissa said hearing the conversation encouraged her to reach new heights.'Seeing Tony connect with his family back east really put things in perspective for me,' she said.
'Especially now, I don't want to let Tony down and I want to make him proud. So probably more than ever I am determined to get this dance this week.'
After scoring an incredible 29 for the individual dance, Tony admitted: 'It was a difficult week - I've got to tell you, being away from my family was very difficult - but this woman kept me going through it.'
He also encouraged viewers to give to a special ABC donation fund that has already reached $50 million.
Inspiration: Melissa said she was inspired to do better after seeing partner Tony speak via video phone to his family on the east coast following the hurricane
Their individual score ended up highest of the
night thanks also in part to an impressive combination of a tango and cha
cha getting them a 10 from Carrie Ann and two 9.5s from the male judges.
Melissa started her routine in a long black
dress and knee-length black boots - then whipped off that dress behind a
smoke screen t reveal a sexier super-short light dress.
'I thought Beyonce all of a sudden came
out here,' Bruno joked, adding: 'You were on fire. The shapes in the
tango were absolutely fantastic. The cha cha cha - you've never been
sexier. You turn me on!'
Carrie Ann told her that 'Tonight you are a star,' while Len said: 'I thought it was beautiful all the way through. Proper fusion.'
What a pro! Melissa was likened to Beyonce after her energetic routine
The devastation on the east coast of America in New York and New Jersey was also on the minds of Maksim Chmerkovskiy and brother Valentin, both of whom grew up there.
Maksim said: 'This hurricane relief is important to me because the entire neighbourhood where I grew up is pretty much devastated. I want to help out as much as I can and give back.'
Val, meanwhile, was clearly emotional as he was asked about the situation in New York.
'They're holding up - it's New York City, the east coast, the strong coast, they kept it together,' he said. 'Anything people can do, whether it's a dollar or 100,000 dollars, or a blanket or just a warm message - I think everybody should go out to do that.
Scores on the board: Judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli were most impressed with Melissa and Tony this week
'This is my childhood, this is the place that America introduced me to and this is where I grew up and this is where a lot of my opportunities began. I love you New York and I love you Brooklyn.'
Maksim and partner Kirstie ended up bottom of the leaderboard, after receiving the lowest votes for their dance as well as the first to be booted out of the dance-off.
Aware that she had done so much to help hurricane Sandy victims, the judges clearly found it being tricky being too harsh on her blend of quick step and Samba.
Charity drive: Kirstie Alley put efforts into helping the victims of Superstorm Sandy in New York this week, saying it was her priority
Full focus: Kirstie was joined by the DWTS dance professionals in her efforts to help the victims of Sandy
'This is hard because your heart is so pure and so wonderful,' Carrie Ann said. 'But the second half of that dance you just lost it. The quick step was nice but I just felt that the samba fell apart. But I love you for all that you're doing for New York.'
Len said there were 'one or two incidents going on' but insisted: 'I thought it was an admirable effort.'
tried even harder to be nice, saying: 'Whatever you do is always
entertaining - I mean only you can turn Cinderella into a stripper! You
went into a stripping mode and you lost timing. But always, always
entertaining to watch you.'
Kirstie later said it was 'very easy' to get hurricane relief ready as 'everyone wants to help'.
'Much easier than my syncopation and my timing - and there were a few incidents,' she joked.
Cinderella moment: Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Kirstie Alley put their all into their fusion but it didn't impress the judges
A few incidents: Kirstie 'lost timing' during the dance, after completing a stripping move
Skater Apolo Anton Ohno and Karina Smirnoff, who got 10s last week, only managed three nines with their Cha Cha and Paso Doble.
And even that appeared to come from a secret weapon - whipping off his shirt and showing his amazing physique.
Starting his routine with a white dinner jacket, he soon whipped it off and ended by flexing his muscles in a bodybuilding-style pose.
Fusion experts:: Apolo Ohno and partner Karina Smirnoff danced the cha cha cha and Pasa Doble
Female favourite: The skating champion ended his dance by stripping his white tuxedo off
'When you took off your shirt all the women in this section stood right up,' host Tom Bergeron told him.
'It's amazing to see that you are still pushing yourself this way - I mean to take off your shirt, you've never done that before have you,' Carrie Ann said. 'But the dance was fantastic. It started off strong and it ended stronger.'
Len joked: 'I tell you what, it's like looking in the mirror when I see your body there. You came out and really attacked this. Apolo Ohno I'm saying Apolo Oh-Yes.'
Thinking pink: Emmitt Smith and Cheryl Burke performed both the rumba and samba on Monday night's show
Approval: The football player won praise from the head judge after his energetic performance
Bruno also praised his 'muscle power', joking: 'I tell you, you should be in Twilight.
Asked later by Brooke Burke Charvet why he waited seven weeks to strip off, Apolo quipped: 'It's very cold in here.'
NFL legend Emmitt Smith and Cheryl Burke were both dressed completely in pink as they performed a Rumba Samba, with the American footballer admitting: 'You think that learning one dance is difficult, how about combining two dances. This week is getting a little bit more stressful.'
He got two 9.5s for his performance, with Carrie Ann weakening his score to 27.5 with an 8.5.
A bright spark on the floor: Emmitt won all-round solid scores from the judges w3ho praised his dancing skills
'What was lacking to me was your upper body, I felt that you were in your head a little,' she told him.
'At the end you gave us the man in pink but in the middle I think it kind of got internal.'
Bruno, however, praised the 'smooth and balanced blend' of two completely different styles of dance.
'It's so difficult to do because the motions are so different - one is smooth and long, the other has a bounce to it, totally contrasting, and you did it with such ease. I'm telling you - that was wonderful.'
Len even joked that he was only wearing a pink tie because of Emmitt and Cheryl.
Suave: Apolo and Peeta were hoping to up the sensuality factor during their dance
Combination factor: Gilles performed the salsa and the tango - the dance he was most nervous about
'I wore pink because I thought in case you got injured then maybe I could take over.But I tell you what, I'm glad you didn't - because I don't think I could have done it as good as that.'
Gilles and Peta got an impressive 28.5 with three 9.5s for their marriage of a samba and a tango.
And while he remained clothed for the dance, viewers got to see him flex his muscles as he posed shirtless for a muscle magazine with UFC star Cheick Kongo, who he called "my dearest friend for the longest time".
Having said he wanted the judges to 'smell' the 'sensuality, the sexuality' of the dance, Bruno praised it as 'sultry and intense and exciting and erotic'.
Splits in the air: Cheryl Burke and partner Emmitt Smith lost out to Melissa and Tony in the swing dance marathon
Only four couples left: Len declared the dance marathon 'The Survival of the Fittest' with the couples putting their all into the routines
The show ended with the swing dance
marathon, where the judges dismissed pairs as they danced - with the
last ones standing declared victors.
Despite an amazing display of acrobatics, Shawn and Mark were beaten by both Kelly and Valentin as well as Melissa and Tony.
Len admitted it had been 'survival of
the fittest' and Melissa and Tony won because they 'kept the energy

When my love sweares that she is made of truth,
I do beleeue her (though I know she lies)
That she might thinke me some vntutor'd youth,
Vnskilful in the worlds false forgeries.
Thus vainly thinking that she thinkes me young,
Although I know my yeares be past the best :
I smiling, credite her false speaking tounge,
Outfacing faults in loue, with loues ill rest.
But wherefore sayes my loue that she is young ?
And wherefore say not I that I am old :
O, Loues best habit's in a soothing toung,
And Age in loue, loues not to haue yeares told.
Therefore I'le lye with Loue, and loue with me,
Since that our faultes in louve thus smother'd be.

In five easy lessons
From the April 2015 issue
i. stand with israel
I listen to a lot of conservative talk radio. Confident masculine voices telling me the enemy is everywhere and victory is near — I often find it affirming: there's a reason I don't think that way. Last spring, many right-wing commentators made much of a Bloomberg poll that asked Americans, "Are you more sympathetic to Netanyahu or Obama?" Republicans picked the Israeli prime minister over their own president, 67 to 16 percent. There was a lot of affected shock that things had come to this. Rush Limbaugh said of Netanyahu that he wished "we had this kind of forceful moral, ethical clarity leading our own country"; Mark Levin described him as "the leader of the free world." For a few days there I yelled quite a bit in my car.
The one conservative radio show I do find myself enjoying is hosted by Dennis Prager. At the Thanksgiving dinner of American radio personalities (Limbaugh is your jittery brother-in-law, Michael Savage is your racist uncle, Hugh Hewitt is Hugh Hewitt) Dennis Prager is the turkey-carving patriarch trying to keep the conversation moderately high-minded. While Prager obviously doesn't like liberals — "The gaps between the left and right on almost every issue that matters are in fact unbridgeable," he has said — he often invites them onto his show for debate, which is rare among right-wing hosts. Yet his gently exasperated take on the Obama–Netanyahu matchup was among the least charitable: "Those who do not confront evil resent those who do."
Average number of Americans who are injured by chain saws each year:
National Safety Council (Chicago)
A farmer in Kenya bit a python who tried to eat him.
A former prison in Philadelphia that has served as a horror-movie set was being prepared as a detention center for protesters arrested at the upcoming Democratic National Convention, and presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump fired his campaign manager.

SAN MARCOS, Texas — Utah ended a lengthy road skid Friday with a 74-69 victory at Texas State.
Jarred DuBois scored 21 points, Jason Washburn added 18 and Jordan Loveridge finished with 17 as the Utes prevailed away from the Huntsman Center for the first time since a buzzer-beating win at New Mexico on Feb. 19, 2011 — ending a skid of 14 consecutive setbacks on the road.
"It's a huge monkey off our back, got that first road win on our first trip of the season and we couldn't be happier," Washburn told ESPN 700. "We've got a lot of areas to improve on, a lot of things we can fix, but for the most part that was a solid effort."
Trailing 55-54, Utah took the lead for good on two free throws by Loveridge with 7:07 left to play. The true freshman from West Jordan High School, who grabbed several key rebounds during the decisive stretch, added another pair of foul shots 19 seconds later to ignite a 14-2 run that gave the Utes a 68-57 edge with just over two minutes remaining.
It proved to be more than enough for Utah (5-2) to withstand a late comeback bid by Texas State (3-4) and secure the victory, two days after dropping a 62-55 decision at SMU.
Utah coach Larry Krystkowiak told ESPN 700 that he was pleased with how his team responded to Texas State's pressure
"For the most part we took care of the ball," Krystkowiak said. "I thought we got a great lift out of a couple of guys and managed to hold on down the stretch."
Utah held a 33-30 advantage at halftime after weathering a rally by Texas State in the closing minutes. The Utes, who led 26-16 with 5:31 remaining in the half, were paced by 12 points from Washburn and 10 by DuBois.
The Utes return home to face Boise State on Wednesday. They'll travel to BYU next Saturday.
"It's on," Krystkowiak said. "I think this week feels a little bit like Pac-12 basketball."
