MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Feb. 14, 2018) - The management of SIRIOS (TSX VENTURE:SOI) is pleased to announce the assay results of drill hole #112, that intersected a new zone assaying 41.0 g/t Au over 8.0 m, at a vertical depth of 285 m on the Cheechoo gold property at Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec. This new zone is hosted in a quartz-feldspar vein with visible gold.
In addition, three high-grade zones were also intersected in the same drill hole, including the Jordi zone:
Significant results are listed in the table below.
Certain drill holes will be deepened during the current drilling campaign in order to determine the strike and dip of this new vein, which assayed 41 g/t Au over 8 m.
Jordi Zone
Drill hole #112 intersected the Jordi Zone, with a grade of 29.3 g/t Au over 6.2 m. Along the same section of hole 112, the Jordi Zone was intersected by holes #10 (9.0 g/t Au over 5.6m, press release 01/13/14) and #17 (12.8 g/t Au over 5.5m, press release 09/12/14). In this area the mineralized zone is interpreted as sub-horizontal, becoming steeper in the updip and downdip extensions, as shown on the section. The Jordi Zone is composed of a pegmatite and a gold bearing quartz-feldspar vein.
Details of the intersections described in the table above are available on the company's website at the following link: http://sirios.com/files/Detail-composite-180214.pdf
A map showing the location of drill hole #112 and its cross section, as well as a table with drill hole coordinates are available with the following links:
The winter 2018 diamond drilling program continues on the Cheechoo Project as planned with two rigs.
Sirios' 100% owned Cheechoo property is located in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec, approximately 800 km north of Montreal, 200 km east of Wemindji and less than 10 km from Goldcorp's Éléonore gold mine.
Assay quality control
All NQ drill core was described by Sirios personnel at the Cheechoo exploration camp. The drill core was then sent to Rouyn-Noranda to be sawed in half, with one half sent to a commercial laboratory for assaying and other half kept for future reference. A strict QA/QC program was followed by integrating blanks and certified reference standards to the core sample sequence. The samples were assayed for gold by fire assay with an atomic absorption finish by Actlabs in Ste-Germaine-Boulé. Samples assaying greater than 2 g/t Au as well as drill core samples with visible gold were assayed by fire assay with metallic sieve based on a 1 kg sample.

A Healing Touch
My Taoist teacher, Stephen Russell, once told a story about when he was learning acupuncture/Oriental medicine, his teacher would ask him to simply put his hand on the patient's heart area (while he was preparing the treatment plan).
Over time, he noted that a lot of therapeutic healing happening with this simple, mindful touch.
It need not be exotic like Reiki (though it can be). It need not be complicated like "therapeutic touch" (again, but can be). It just needs to be sincere.
Much to be said for this. A hug, embrace or a kiss has curative properties.
Even animals have this figured out.

Sunflower seed products are an additional highly healthy seed food that people Americans provide generously to the parrots as well as our hens, yet don't utilize within raising the actual standards in our under-par human being diets. Our overall health authorities happen to be passing up a very palatable, first-rate supply of high-grade proteins, B-vitamins as well as urgently required trace mineral deposits by faltering to acquaint the general public with sunflower seed products. This is really a serious oversight inside a country where our overall health becomes even worse as the civilization develops older-and exactly where our past-forty populace keeps growing old prematurely due to poor diet plan. Back within the days from the czars, every Euro soldier out within the campaign field was handed what had been called their daily 'iron ration'-a two-pound tote of sunflower seed products. Because the actual army from its provide bases had been sometimes forced to reside exclusively upon these seed products, the officials furnished their own men with this particular tasty, lightweight food understanding that it gave all of them the nourishment required to keep all of them in good shape. (Besides the actual protein, vitamins along with other minerals, 2 pounds associated with sunflower seed products contain regarding 21 milligrams associated with iron. The typical grown guy requires a minimum of 12 milligrams associated with iron every day for ideal health, while the typical woman needs no less than 15 milligrams. From these types of figures it's not hard to understand how the Russian soldier in those times must happen to be a red-blooded other. )
The actual Russians, Turks as well as Arabs living close to the Black Ocean and within Asia Small chew sunflower seed products as People in america chew chewing gum. Every Euro home for the reason that region includes a bowlful associated with sunflower seeds to become dipped into all the time, as the homes supply dishes associated with bonbons. This custom found its way to some areas of america where immigrants through Russia resolved. In the actual Dakotas, for example, several years ago the college children had been encouraged to consume sunflower seed products, called 'Russian nuts. ' In the last several many years, various scientists within the country possess made studies to determine the dietary values from the sunflower seedling. An test conducted from Indiana College to evaluate sunflower seed products with whole wheat germ, hammer toe germ as well as soybeans acquired these outcomes: Sunflower seedling meal (the type of the seed utilized in the experiment) consists of about 750 percent more niacin compared to best quality of whole wheat germ, and it is 500 percent richer with this important person in the B-complex team than possibly corn tiniest seed or soybean dinner. Also, sunflower seedling meal has got the same complete niacin worth, if no more, than peanut dinner, heretofore, considered a superb source of the vitamin. What this particular experiment way to you is actually that sunflower seed products are a good unsurpassed supply of niacin. Further research revealed which sunflower seedling meal consists of about 60 percent more pantothenic acidity (likewise an associate of the actual B-vitamin loved ones, and sometimes referred to as the 'anti-gray locks vitamin') compared to soybean dinner; and significantly more pantothenic acidity than possibly corn tiniest seed or whole wheat germ. It had been also found that sunflower seed products top the listing of all veggie concentrates, that contains 55. 4 percent high-grade proteins. The statement concluded: 'Sunflower seedling meal is actually unusually full of bone-forming calcium supplement. It is loaded with thiamin, or even vitamin B-i. a. We possess since learned that sunflower seed products are normal storehouses for that minerals silicon, magnesium, fluorine as well as phosphorus, along with their especially generous levels of calcium as well as iron. Due to the flower's near affinity towards the sun, sunflower seed products are an incredibly rich supply of vitamin Deb, being among the very couple of plants that contains this 'sunshine supplement. ' This really is only organic, when all of us stop in order to recall how the sunflower may be the only grow that noticeably turns it's head during the day to follow the road of the sun's rays across the actual heavens. Sunflower seed products may enter your diet plan in a number of ways. The hulled seeds create a delicious confection, having a flavor much superior, for me, to nuts. Sunflower seed products, hulled as well as sometimes toasted, happen to be a delicacy within the Orient as well as in Slavic countries for a lot of centuries. The vegetarians who've tried 'meat loaf' made from ground sunflower seed products declare it to become far exceptional in each flavor as well as nourishment to every other substitute they've found. Sunflower seeds have a protein which approaches beef protein within taste as well as smell. The meal produced from sunflower seed products mixes nicely with additional flours, as well as bakes rapidly. It is actually delicious, as well, when employed for thickening sauces, gravies as well as sauces. Sunflower seed products, together along with millet, ought to be an essential in most vegetarian diet plan, as well as with the diets of these persons who're seeking affordable, easily broken down, youth-protecting meats. The proteins content associated with sunflower seed products and millet is much better balanced and much more digestible compared to that associated with soybeans that, up before present, have created the 'staff associated with life' for many meatless diet programs. If I can not persuade a person vegetarians to incorporate at minimum some meat, fish as well as poultry inside your diets, then go ahead and let me personally recommend that you will get acquainted at the same time with millet as well as sunflower seed products, using them within the ways layed out for you-and with regard to other customers in additional artciles in the future. It isn't any surprise in my experience when passionate reports keep arriving from persons who've adopted sunflower seeds like a regular item within their diets. Especially interesting may be the almost unanimous compliment for sunflower seeds like a food which remedies blood loss gums, and decelerates tooth rot. Of program, the description for this is actually the unusually higher content from the vitamins The and Deb, and the actual minerals calcium supplement, phosphorus, silicon as well as fluorine, them all nutrients directly worried about the healthiness of teeth as well as gums. The calcium supplement of uncooked sunflower seed products is very easily assimilated by the body. This might be one reason eating sunflower seed products was thought by the grandparents in order to cure rheumatism. Although absolutely no extensive research may be done about this belief up to now, still a number of you who are afflicted by this unpleasant ailment may decide to do a few experimenting by yourself. About a little handful associated with hulled seeds may be the average every day amount that may be effective. Obviously, if sunflower seedling meal will come in your neighborhood, then go ahead and also expose this extremely nourishing staple into meals. J. We. Rodale, among the country's the majority of tireless crusaders with regard to better nutrition-and with regard to banning using chemical fertilizers-noticed which after consuming sunflower seeds for around a 30 days he might walk lower a snow-covered road within the bright sunshine without struggling the eyestrain that the dazzling glare experienced formerly triggered. He observed, also, he no lengthier was stressed with blood loss gums following introducing sunflower seed products into their daily diet plan. He had been further very happy to note which his skin appeared to be getting softer. Nutritional technology has demonstrated that calcium supplement and supplement A-both of these generously contained in sunflower seeds-are an important in this diet of an individual who desires a proper skin. Silicon, another mineral supplied by sunflower seed products in abnormally large amounts, enters to the composition of the hair, fingernails, nerves, bloodstream, albumin as well as teeth (aided with this last through fluorine). Laboratory investigation has learned that a lack of silicon-a find mineral-in this diet leads to lack of hair as well as early rot of the teeth, as well regarding a significantly lowered opposition to an infection. From exactly what I've informed you regarding sunflower seed products, you ought to need absolutely no urging to increase your diet plan this cereal that contains much more riboflavin compared to wheat tiniest seed, and is definitely an all-around better supply of the B-vitamins as well as of high-grade proteins than every other grain, other than perhaps millet.

Dubai is ranked as one of the most expensive destinations in the Bloomberg World Airbnb Cost Index of more than 100 cities.
At $180, prices in Dubai rose by more than 7 percent year-on-year to be named the third most expensive in the world, behind Miami and Reykjavik.
The Bloomberg index also revealed that hotel room rates in Dubai over the same period fell by 28 percent to $175.
This backed up research by Knight Frank which said prices in Dubai's hotel market are being hit by more than 4,200 active short-term lets available in the city on Airbnb.com.
The research, published late last year, said that while hotel operators had previously been dismissive of competition in the form of short-term letting websites, many were now recognising the 'Airbnb effect' and in some markets had lobbied aggressively against it.
In April last year, Dubai Tourism signed an agreement with Airbnb to allow homeowners to apply for licences without having to commission a third party as a management operator.
Bloomberg compiled the data for its latest index based on the average daily cost of lodging in private dwellings, regardless of accommodation type, for two guests.
Elsewhere in the Gulf region, Riyadh was ranked 26th ($109), down 25.3 percent on an annual basis, while Kuwait ($107) was placed 28th and Doha ($92) was ranked 39th.For all the latest travel news from the UAE and Gulf countries, follow us on Twitter and Linkedin, like us on Facebook and subscribe to our YouTube page, which is updated daily.

The antediluvian (or pre-diluvian - both meaning "before the deluge") period is that period in Biblical history between the Creation of the earth and the Deluge. The story takes up chapters 1-6 (excluding the Flood narrative) of Genesis.
The antediluvian period
In Christian theology, the antediluvian period begins with the Creation and ends with the destruction of all life on the earth except those saved with Noah in the Ark 1,656 years later. The elements of the narrative include some of the best-known stories in the bible - the Creation itself, Adam and Eve, and Cain and Abel - followed by the genealogies tracing the descendants of Cain and Seth, the third son of Adam and Eve. (These genealogies provide the framework for the biblical chronology, in the form A begat B in his Xth year).
The Bible speaks of this era as being a time of great wickedness. There were Gibborim (giants) in the earth in those days as well as Nephilim; some translations identify the two as one and the same. The Gibborim were unusually powerful; Genesis calls them "heroes of old, men of renown;" (Enoshi Ha Shem). The antediluvian period ended when God sent the Flood to wipe out all life except Noah, his family, and the animals they took with them. Nevertheless, the Nephilim (literally meaning 'fallen ones', from the Hebrew root n-f-l 'to fall') reappear much later in the Biblical narrative, in Numbers 13:31-33 (where the spies sent forth by Moses report that there were Nephilim or "giants" in the Promised Land).
Writers such as William Whiston (A New Theory of the Earth 1696) and Henry Morris (The Genesis Flood 1961) describe the antediluvian period as follows:
- People lived much longer than people today, typically between 700-950 years, as reported in the genealogies of Genesis;
- The Earth contained many more people than the Earth contained in 1696. Whiston calculated that as many as 500 million humans may have been born in the antediluvian period, based on assumptions about lifespans and fertility rates;
- There were no clouds or rain. Instead, the Earth was watered by mists which rose from the Earth. (Another interpretation is that the Earth was covered completely by a global cloud layer; the upper waters mentioned in the Creation. This is commonly called the Canopy theory).
Other uses
- "Antediluvian" is sometimes used figuratively to refer to anything of great age and/or outmoded; H. P. Lovecraft was particularly fond of the term, using it frequently in his horror stories.
- Atlantis: The Antediluvian World is a 1882 book by Ignatius L. Donnelly that attempted to establish that all known ancient civilizations were descended from Atlantis. Many theories mentioned in the book are the source of modern-day concepts about Atlantis.
- In Charles Stross's Saturns' Children the religious order who believe in evolution reference the antedeluvian period as the time in which man lived alongside Tyrannosaurs.

8 boys arrested for threatening to beat up Akihabara 'otaku' in extortion plot
Eight boys have been arrested for allegedly extorting and attempting to extort money from people on the streets of Tokyo's Akihabara electric store district, police said Thursday.

SDF officer arrested for drunk driving after fleeing police
SAITAMA — A Maritime Self-Defense Force officer was arrested Sunday in Saitama Prefecture for drunk driving after his car hit a roadside electricity pole as he attempted to flee from police.

The Tokyo District Court ruled Thursday that teachers and librarians are not obliged to sing the Kimigayo national anthem at school events despite Tokyo authorities' instruction to do so. Judge Koichi Namba said the Tokyo metropolitan government and its education board's notice to force teachers to sing Kimigayo in front of the Japanese flag infringes on freedom of thought and is against the basic education law.
'I can't believe we got such a great ruling from the court. I am really glad that I fought through the adversity,' said Ayako Kawaguchi, 48, a teacher who says her colleagues were reprimanded for refusing to sing Kimigayo at their school. The suit was filed by 401 incumbent and former teachers and librarians against the metropolitan government and its education board after they issued a notice in October 2003 demanding that public school employees stand and sing the national anthem in front of the Japanese flag during entrance and graduation ceremonies at schools."

New LDP chief Abe vows patriotic education, bigger international role
New LDP chief Abe vows patriotic education, bigger international role Chief Cabinet Secretary Shinzo Abe, who eyes a larger role for Japan on the world stage, won a landslide victory in the ruling party's leadership election Wednesday, paving the way for him to be picked as Japan's youngest postwar premier next week in parliament.
Abe vowed in his first news conference as Liberal Democratic Party president to place priority in the upcoming parliament session to extend a special law enabling Japanese troops to support U.S.-led antiterrorism operations in the Indian Ocean and pass a bill to drastically reform education to instill patriotism in Japanese classrooms.
'I declare that I will, as the first party president to be born after World War II, take over the flame of reform,' Abe told a gathering of LDP lawmakers after the results were announced. 'I vow to devote myself in working with you all toward creating a new and beautiful nation.'
Abe said he will decide on the party leadership lineup Monday and his new cabinet on Tuesday, when the Diet will pick him as Japan's new premier to succeed Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi. A focus of attention is whether Abe will bow to party politics and distribute posts among factions, a traditional practice that Koizumi broke.
Winning 464 of 703 votes from party lawmakers and members, the 51-year-old Abe defeated Finance Minister Sadakazu Tanigaki and Foreign Minister Taro Aso to become the LDP president. Aso scored 136 votes and Tanigaki got 102. One of the 403 lawmaker ballots was invalid.
But while he won with an overwhelming victory with two-thirds of all votes, it was short of his camp's target of getting more than 500 ballots.
With a three-year term to September 2009, Abe will be faced with the daunting tasks of repairing Japan's soured relations with China and South Korea, and raising taxes to rebuild debt-ridden state finances and fund social welfare. The LDP is also expected to face a"

The succession of Japan'simperial throne
Princess Kiko, the wife of the emperor's younger son, gave birth
to a boy on Wednesday morning, securing the succession of Japan's
imperial throne for another generation.
In an event that had been anticipated for months, the princess gave
birth by Caesarean section to a boy weighing 2.5 kilograms - or 5
pounds, 10 ounces - and measuring 49 centimeters, or 19.2 inches, at
8:27 a.m., the Imperial Household Agency reported. Newspapers here
scrambled to print extra editions to mark the birth of the
still-unnamed child, the first male born in the royal family in 41
The birth of a male heir will shelve for the foreseeable future a
politically explosive debate over whether women should be allowed to
ascend to the throne. It has solved for now a succession crisis that
had taken its most direct human toll on Crown Princess Masako, 42, the
Harvard-educated former diplomat whose inability to bear a boy
contributed to her depression and withdrawal from the public.
Under the current succession system, only men in a direct line to the
emperor can inherit the throne. So Kiko's child will become third in
line to the throne, after Crown Prince Naruhito, 46, and the child's
own father, Prince Akishino.
The crown prince and crown princess have a daughter, Aiko, 4; Prince
Akishino, 40, and Kiko, 39, have two daughters, Mako, 14, and Kako,
11. But none are eligible to ascend the throne.
Last year, with seemingly no resolution to the succession crisis,
Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi convened a panel of experts that
recommended that a woman and her offspring be allowed to ascend to the
throne. The change would have allowed Aiko, as well as her first-born,
regardless of sex, to inherit the throne.
Before the bill could be introduced in Parliament, however, news of
Kiko's pregnancy in February led Koizumi to put the proposal on the
back burner.
Shinzo Abe, the nationalist chief cabinet secretary who is almost
certain to succeed Koizumi later this month as prime minister and is
known to have opposed the proposed bill.
It stirred unexpectedly fierce opposition from Japan's conservatives,
who argued that the male-only succession is the Chrysanthemum Throne's
defining characteristic. Japan has had eight empresses in the past,
but they did not have offspring who succeeded them.
Instead, the throne always reverted to a male relative who was related
on his father's side to a previous emperor. That, conservatives
argued, had always guaranteed the purity of the male bloodline - or,
in more modern terms, the male Y chromosome.
According to this logic, conservatives did not oppose changing the law
to allow Aiko to ascend to the throne but refused to countenance a
revision that would allow her offspring to do so. (The Japanese public
overwhelmingly supported Aiko's ascension, according to polls, but
grew more ambivalent about a matrilineal line.)
Japanese emperors have not had political authority since Emperor
Hirohito renounced his divinity after World War II.
Among possible solutions to the succession crisis, conservatives
proposed that other branches of the imperial family, abolished during
the post-World War II American occupation, be resurrected to find a
relative of the emperor with the right Y chromosome. Prince Tomohito
of Mikasa, 60, a cousin of the current emperor, argued for the revival
of the concubine system, which in the past had made plenty of
child-bearing women available to the emperor.
The birth may also end the psychological drama surrounding the royal
family, especially Masako. When she gave up a career in diplomacy to
marry the crown prince in 1993, she was heralded as a modern Japanese
woman who could perhaps even modernize the imperial institution. But
the princess was soon confronted with the reality that she was now
expected to do only one thing: bear a male heir.
When the couple finally had a child, it was a girl, Aiko. The Imperial
Household Agency, the powerful bureaucracy that oversees the royal
family, kept up the pressure to have another child, and Masako
eventually slipped into a depression.
Her plight led the crown prince to hold an extraordinary news
conference two years ago, in which he stated that he would not let his
wife be sacrificed for the greater good of the monarchy. "There has
been a move," the prince said, "to deny Masako's career and
Akishino, who had always lived in his older brother's shadow,
criticized his brother and sister-in-law by saying that they must put
their public duties above all. Around the same time, the Imperial
Household Agency publicly exhorted Akishino and Kiko - who had last
had a child a dozen years ago - to try for another baby.
Kiko, the daughter of a university professor who never had a career
before getting married, has become the darling of the Japanese media.
By contrast, Masako has increasingly become a target, routinely
criticized by the conservative media for her supposed selfishness and
lack of common sense.
Ordinary Japanese welcomed the rare piece of good news about the royal
family, though they were split as to whether the birth should affect
the debate over female succession.
"I'm glad it's a boy," said Ryoji Inoue, 33, a salaryman interviewed
at a subway station here. "I want the male succession to be
maintained. That's because Japanese society is still led by men. I
hope a couple of more boys will be born. The imperial law can be
changed when we don't have any choice in the future."
But Nanase Fujiwara, a 23-year-old housewife pushing her 6-month-old
daughter in a stroller, supported the idea of matrilineal succession.
"There's no problem with a female throne," she said. "But I think
people around the imperial family tend to have old ideas and are stuck
on male succession."
Japan imposes additional sanctions on N Korea over missile launches
Japan imposed financial sanctions Tuesday on North Korea by prohibiting remittances to 15 entities and one individual linked to the North's missile and weapons programs, in line with a U.N. Security Council resolution condemning missile launches by Pyongyang in early July.
'By implementing these measures, we will demonstrate the resolve of the international community, as well as Japan, in line with the U.N. Security Council resolution,' Chief Cabinet Secretary Shinzo Abe said. 'Japan takes this occasion to once again urge North Korea to accept the resolution, halt its missile-related activities and observe the missile launch moratorium, as well as immediately return to six-way nuclear talks without preconditions.'"
Man slashes 13-year-old girl with knife in Aichi
KASUGAI — A knife-wielding man attacked a 13-year-old girl in the parking lot of an apartment block in Kasugai, Aichi Prefecture, on Tuesday morning. Police said the girl was slashed three times on her left arm around 7:10 a.m., but described her injuries as minor.
The assailant, who fled the scene, was described as being in his 50s and with silver-gray hair. He wore a face mask. Police said there is a distinct possibility that the perpetrator is the same man who slashed another high school student in May in the same town. In that incident, the attacker used a pair of scissors."
Honda Opens New China Factory
Honda Opens New China Factory to Keep Ahead of Toyota
By Kelvin Wong and Tian Ying
Honda Motor Co., Japan's third- largest automaker, opened a new factory in China, as it seeks to maintain its lead over Toyota Motor Corp. and Nissan Motor Co. in the world's fastest growing major vehicle market.
The new factory, located in the southeastern city of Guangzhou, will have a capacity of 120,000 vehicles a year, the company said in a statement. Guangzhou Honda Automobile Co., Honda's venture with Guangzhou Automobile Group Co., invested 2.2 billion yuan ($277 million) in the factory, which will make Accord models.
Honda, the first Japanese carmaker to set up a venture in China, is opening the plant after capacity shortages stunted its sales growth in the first half. The factory may enable Honda to maintain its lead over Toyota and Nissan, which are also investing in the world's third-largest vehicle market.
Honda set up its first venture in China in 1998, five years ahead of Toyota and Nissan. The company had about 5.7 percent of China's passenger car sales in the first half, compared with Toyota's 4.5 percent and Nissan's 4.1 percent, according to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers. Market leader Volkswagen AG had a share of 17.1 percent, the carmaker said.
Honda sold 143,519 vehicles in the first six months of the year, less than half its full-year target of 350,000 units, because of capacity shortages, it said in July. The company's sales were 22 percent higher than a year earlier.
The new factory will give Guangzhou Honda a total capacity of 360,000 units a year.
Toyota's Growth
Toyota expects its sales in China to rise 52 percent this year from last year to 278,000 units, Executive Vice President Yoshimi Inaba said in July. The world's biggest automaker by market value has invested 215 billion yen ($1.8 billion) in China and it is aiming to boost i"
Gov't to impose stricter regulations on cash bank deposits in crackdown on laundering - MSN-Mainichi Daily News
Gov't to impose stricter regulations on cash bank deposits in crackdown on laundering - MSN-Mainichi Daily News: "Gov't to impose stricter regulations on cash bank deposits in crackdown on laundering
People who try to make deposits in person of more than 100,000 yen in cash at financial institutions will be required under a law to show identity that proves they are the holders of the accounts, according to revised regulations.
The Cabinet on Tuesday adopted revised regulations designed to lower the limit of accepting cash payments at institutions without identification in a bid to block money laundering and fund transfers to terrorist organizations.
Currently, those who deposit more than 2 million yen in person at counters have to prove their identity.
After the revised regulations take effect on Jan. 4 next year, people who try to deposit more than 100,000 yen in cash will not be able to do so at automatic teller machines (ATMs). Instead they have to prove their identity by showing identity cards such as driver's licenses over the counter at financial institutions.
Account holders won't need to show identification to transfer money from account to account as they would have already proved their identity when setting up the accounts. (Mainichi)"

Yoshinoya serves up 1 million U.S. beef bowls; one man lines up from Sunday night
Monday, September 18, 2006 at 13:56 EDT
Customers eat U.S. beef at a Yoshinoya restaurant in Yurakucho on
TOKYO — Fast-food restaurant chain Yoshinoya D&C Co resumed sales of 'gyudon' beef-on-rice dishes Monday, about two years and seven months after removing the mainstay dish from its menu due to Japan's ban on U.S. beef imports over fear of mad cow disease. Yoshinoya prepared some 1 million gyudon bowls at about 1,000 shops across Japan for Monday's sales resumption. It will continue to sell gyudon bowls Tuesday and after on a limited basis for the time being as U.S. beef imports remain slack since Japan lifted its ban on the imports in late July.
'I was waiting for this moment,' said Takanori Umeki, 24, a University of Tokyo graduate student who was first in line at Yoshinoya's Yurakucho shop in central Tokyo. He said he had been waiting outside the restaurant since 11 p.m. Sunday night.
The Yurakucho shop prepared 1,000 gyudon dishes, with the regular bowl priced at 380 yen, up 100 yen from February 2004, when Yoshinoya was forced to remove gyudon from its menu due to the U.S. beef import ban. Despite light rain, about 50 people formed a line before the shop began gyudon sales from 11 a.m.
As shop staff announced the start of the sales, people eagerly rushed into the shop with smiles on their faces.
'I have almost forgotten the taste of gyudon. I want to remember its taste today. I'm not absolutely sure about the safety of U.S. beef but I am not too worried,' said Umeki, adding the price hike of about 100 yen is unavoidable.
Tadao Kato, the 33-year-old chief of the Yurakucho shop, said, 'We are confident that the beef is safe because it has been fully checked. Now, we have to win customer trus"
Defense Agency to open Washington office
TOKYO — The Defense Agency has decided to open a liaison office in charge of military data in Washington to strengthen ties with U.S. intelligence agencies, a Japanese daily reported Sunday. The Mainichi Shimbun said the agency will send a senior defense policy bureau official to Washington later this year to open the office early next year.
The office will operate independently from the Japanese Embassy in Washington to better coordinate with the U.S. intelligence community, particularly with the Defense Intelligence Agency and the National Security Agency, the report said."

Japan mulls dispatch of GSDF to Lebanon
Japan mulls dispatch of GSDF to Lebanon:
U.N. mission hinges on fragile ceasefire
The government is thinking of dispatching Ground Self-Defense Force troops to Lebanon to offer logistics support to the U.N. Interim Force there monitoring a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah militants, government sources have said.
A ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israeli troops in southern Lebanon went into effect Aug. 14 following the passage of an earlier U.N. resolution urging an end to the hostilities.
It remains uncertain, though, whether Japan will give the go-ahead for the deployment, given strong concerns in the government that fighting may erupt again in southern Lebanon.
The final say is expected to be left to the new Japanese government that will be formed later this month after Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi steps down, the sources said.
The fighting erupted July 12 when Hezbollah militants abducted two Israeli soldiers and killed three others in a cross-border raid.
The U.N. Security Council adopted a resolution Aug. 11 that calls for a 'full cessation of hostilities' between Hezbollah and Israel -- specifically demanding that Hezbollah end its attacks. It also says Israel should cease its 'offensive military operations.'
The ceasefire came into effect a few days later, and both parties basically accepted the resolution.
With the establishment of a ceasefire and other conditions under the five-point principle Japan stipulates for engaging in peacekeeping missions, the government has begun considering a GSDF deployment in view of the 1992 Japanese law governing participation in U.N.-led peacekeeping operations.
Japan has sent missions under the U.N. peacekeeping framework to areas including Cambodia, Mozambique and East Timor, and Japanese troops are currently providing logistic support in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights in southern Syria.

3 Japan banks to refrain from deals with Iran in line with U.S. sanctions
TOKYO — The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Mizuho Corporate Bank and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp will refrain from doing business with Iran's state-run Bank Saderat Iran in line with U.S. financial sanctions, officials at the three Japanese banks said Saturday.
The United States has imposed a ban on U.S. bank transactions with Bank Saderat Iran, insisting that Iran is channeling funds to Hezbollah in Lebanon through the export bank."
Economist magazine praises Koizumi
LONDON — The forthcoming leadership election of Japan's Liberal Democratic Party on Sept 20 has sparked interest on an international level, not least because it will mark the beginning of the end of Junichiro Koizumi's reign as a 'remarkable' prime minister, according to the British weekly magazine the Economist.
The magazine, in its latest issue published Friday, says that while the premier may be stepping down from his office, his legacy as a reformer of policy and his country will reverberate around both Japan and the world long after his successor has filled his considerable shoes. 'During his tenure Japan's governing apparatus has been transformed, its economy has emerged from long years of degenerative decline, and its dealings with the world have been energized and emboldened. For all that, Junichiro Koizumi remains an enigma,' the magazine says."
U.S. honors SDF's Adm Saito for helping beef up alliance
— The United States awarded the Legion of Merit with a degree of commander Friday to Adm Takashi Saito, chief of staff of Japan's Self-Defense Forces, for his contributions to strengthening the bilateral security alliance and defense cooperation.
U.S. Naval Operations Chief Adm Michael Mullen handed the award to Saito at a ceremony at the U.S. Defense Department. 'Admiral Saito displayed strong leadership and exceptional vision in guiding the MSDF's policies of strong cooperation, close operational coordination, robust interoperability with the U.S. Navy in support of the U.S.-Japan alliance,' the citation said."

The Supreme Court rejected a special appeal filed by the defense counsel for Aum Shinrikyo cult founder Shoko Asahara on Friday, finalizing the death sentence against him over his involvement in the 1995 sarin gas attack on the Tokyo subway system and other charges.
The move came after the defense lawyers had missed the Aug 31, 2005, deadline for submitting a statement to the Tokyo High Court to give the reason for their appeal against the capital punishment handed down to Asahara, 51, at a lower court in February 2004."

SANO — A 33-year-old male elementary school teacher in Sano, Tochigi, is facing criminal charges after being accused of fondling all the girls in his class. According to the Tochigi Board of Education, the teacher has made all the girls sit on his lap during recess since April.
The case surfaced when the parents of some girls filed a complaint with the school, saying that their daughters didn't like being touched by the teacher. The teacher admits to the complaint. 'I did it because the girls are adorable. I wanted to build a close relationship with them, in which they would not hesitate to tell me everything,' he was quoted by investigators as saying."

We have been running our business renting our holiday homes and b&b for over 20 years and have a number of houses and apartments to suit all tastes and pockets in winchester and in Cyprus.
Owner purchased this house in 2014
This is a simply stunning contemporary house, fitted out to a high specification and filled with light from every direction. Walking distance from the centre of Winchester.
The house has an unusual 'upside down' layout with the two bedrooms on the ground floor opening onto a secure terrace, the open plan upper floor has a kitchen with all high quality modern appliances, sitting area with L-shaped sofa bed/chaise longue,and a dining area, all opening onto a balcony. There is also a games area with a table tennis table.
We also provide two bikes for guests to use.
Our family of three from California spent 6 nights at The Pavilion in mid-February. It is well-maintained, in excellent condition, modern and spotless. The photos are accurate - light-filled, even in winter, spacious and clean. The location is very convenient, a 10 minute walk to Waitrose and 10 minutes the opposite way to downtown Winchester. The owners, Caroline and David, are professional and responsive - emails answered within the day.
Two good-sized bedrooms are located on the first floor where you enter. The master has a queen bed and en suite bathroom with large tub and handheld shower. We had a mechanical issue with the bed, but Caroline and David responded to and corrected the issue promptly and thoroughly. The bed is now very comfortable, firm and supportive. The other bedroom contains two single beds, both very comfortable. Both beds have thick lofty quilts which kept us toasty on the cold winter nights. The second bathroom has a roomy rain shower with excellent water pressure. Both bathrooms are impeccably clean and modern. There is an outside enclosed patio with table and chairs that runs the length of the both bedrooms; floor to ceiling windows let plenty of light in. There is a road and bus stop located just on the other side of the patio; while it was very quiet most nights, Saturday night had late night foot and car traffic.
The second floor is a very flexible open living space with a dining table; a comfortable sectional sofa (that expands) and flat screen tv; and a large modern kitchen with island with stools. There is a sliding door to hide the kitchen area but we enjoyed the open loft feel. There's plenty of light, even in winter, thanks to a balcony that spans the length of the whole room. Sliding wood panels on the balcony modulate the sunlight and give privacy at night - an excellent solution that we used regularly even in winter.
The kitchen is fairly well-appointed. A rubber spatula and measuring utensils would have made it complete but otherwise it met all of our cooking needs. Be aware that the oven seems to run a bit hot so watch your croissants in the morning. Dishwasher, stovetop, washer/dryer and heating system all work well. The heating system is on a timer so you need to remember to override it in the winter if you are at home during the day.
Thank you to Caroline and David for the clean, well-kept modern home that provided us with a home away from home while in Winchester.
Great location and we'll equipped. Perfect for 3 people, though could easily accomodate more.
The house is ideally located - a a couple of minutes walk to the local aminities (Waitrose, Fish and Chip shop, Newsagents), walkable distance to the train station and the town centre. The house was lovely, well maintained, clean and had everything that we could ask for - even table tennis in the court yard.
Our stay was perfect and the owner was friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this property.
Our family greatly enjoyed our stay. The location is perfect. It is lovely and clean with good parking. It is an easy walk into town and close to the shops.
There is good privacy and it is very secure.
The kitchen is magnificent. The eating area is very adequate.
The beds are comfortable.
2 bathrooms are good.
We highly recommend this property.
We've totally enjoyed staying in this lovely and modern house during new year holidays! The area is quiet, and close to city centre and train station (just 10 min walking to get on train to London). Very spacious and stylish living room and big balcony with nice view.. Well-ecquipped, clean, warm and comfort house! Landlords are very hospitable and friendly.
The Pavilion is the perfect home away from home. It is beautifully decorated and maintained and lacking in nothing to ensure your day to day living is 'ready to go' from the moment you step through the front door. Details such as a fully equipped kitchen, books, linens and flowers make the property feel like your own. The owners are a phone call away to answer any questions and their diligence to ensure information is on hand allow you to enjoy your stay from day one. The property is a stones throw away form the town, train station, local supermarket and great pubs and also major road links. This is a stunning property and I would recommend it to any of my friends....but I shan't in case too many get to know about it and I won't be able to get my next reservation!!
Winchester is a great base for exploring all of southern England.
Within one and a half hours you can reach Stonehenge, Salisbury, Bath, Bristol, Bournemouth, Isle of Wight, Portsmouth, New Forest,
Jane Austin Country, Highclere Castle, home of Downtown Abbey,

What if I told you that you could transform your body in just four minutes? I bet you think I sound like a cheesy infomercial right now, and might just be about to pitch you the "Ab X-Ploder 3000" or some equally ridiculous product, but just hear me out - this is no cheap sales ploy.
Still with me? Awesome. While my promise of four minutes a day might sound too good to be true, it's legit. All you need to do is take the 28-day Plank Challenge, originally featured in Women Daily Magazine. Slowly but surely, this program will help increase your strength and endurance. It's not a quick fix, but honestly, you should be wary of anything that is - either it's a lie or it'll seriously mess up your health. If you're willing to put in a few minutes a day for a month, you will see results.
The Challenge
This challenge must be completed over the course of four continuous weeks. At the outset, you'll simply hold a plank position for 20 seconds. Over time, you'll gradually build up your stamina until you're planking for four whole minutes by the end. Here's how to do it:
Day 1 – 20 seconds
Day 2 – 20 seconds
Day 3 – 30 seconds
Day 4 – 30 seconds
Day 5 – 40 seconds
Day 6 – Rest
Day 7 – 45 seconds
Day 8 – 45 seconds
Day 9 – 60 seconds
Day 10 – 60 seconds

How To Do A Proper Plank
The challenge above won't do you any good if your form is off. Improper form will either result in injury or fail to provide enough stress to actually condition your body. Here's how Physical Living's advice on how you should execute a proper plank:
- Position yourself correctly. Your elbows should be directly under your shoulders so that your weight is properly distributed.
- Keep your spine straight. Be very mindful of not rounding out your spine, as this can put undue pressure on your neck and back.
- Tighten your core to maximize the benefits of the exercise.
- Spread your legs slightly apart. You hips should not feel any additional pressure during this exercise, so adjust accordingly if you find that's the case.
- Breath slowly and deliberately, keeping your body relaxed and your core engaged.
Why Planking?
You may be wondering why is a program that only consists of a single core-building exercise so good for you? Planking is for your abs, so how is it helping the rest of your body? As it turns out, in a lot of ways! Here's what planking does for you:
- Tones Your Tummy: This one might seem a little obvious. Planking is all about building strength in your core; you have to really engage your abs to perform a good plank. Planking helps train your transverse abdominis, also known as the "girdle" muscle or the "Spanx" of your abs. It'll give you a naturally toned and tight stomach.
- Promotes Good Posture: Your abs are essential to good posture, as they help stabilize your body throughout almost any movement. Strengthening the core helps you stand up straight and tall, and increases overall your range of motion.
- Increases Flexibility: As you work your back and shoulder muscles (both of which are engaged during a plank), your flexibility increases. Planking actually helps stretch your shoulder blades out to promote a bigger range of motion.

Hello everyone, Brad here!
This past week I've been somewhat inactive on iHeartGuys. I only logged on here to chat once or twice, but it was for a good reason.
I've been cramming some studying in to take an exam for certification as a physical therapist. That whole process is being taken very seriously because becoming a P.T. is basically my dream job!
In addition to all that jazz, I've been doing an intense training routine. So far it feels like it's been incredibly brutal on my body. My arms feel like they're about to fall off, but after a few more months I'll probably be looking better than I have in my whole life.
It's sort of an investment for my fans because I love to look good for the gay guys I chat with on iHeartGuys!
Short-term goals I have
This week I have a goal to do at least 5 gay chat sessions over the next 7 days. I'll probably log on right after I get back from the gym so you guys can see me looking extra ripped with a nice pump. I'm already hyped to get started! Hopefully, I can get a few more fans with some extra long cam sessions.
See you tomorrow!
-Brad Tomlin

As we all know, life is not straightforward; it takes time to figure ourselves out, get the perfect job, and find our other half. Therefore, life was not any different for Maria Teresa Cobar.
She was born in Guatemala and moved to the United States as a 27-year-old single mother and worked for many years as a nanny and housekeeper. She occasionally dated, but "found it hard to find the right man," and since her priority was her daughter. "I really didn't need anybody else," she said. But when she least expected, she met Carlos Suarez.
Suarez had moved from Cuba to Miami over five decades ago with his wife and their son. He then started a jewelry business, which now belongs to his nephew, and in 2006 he became a widower, but he never lost hope of finding love again. Soon enough he met Cobar, and the two connected right away. Suarez said that "When she came out with her walker in front of me, I thought, 'Not bad,.'" So "when she came by, I said, 'I'm not letting her get away.'"
So it happened, they became inseparable; Suarez attended Cobar's favorite arts and crafts activities in the nursing home. They watched TV together, danced at parties; Suarez leading from his wheelchair. And they also watched many sunsets together. Everyone in the nursing home called them "the lovebirds."
"That was their nickname. You knew exactly who someone was talking about when they said that," said Allison Almirola, activities director for the Aventura Plaza Rehabilitation and Skilled Nursing Center, where the couple lives.
No longer after their meet-cute Suarez proposed by saying, "let's get married'. And Cobar said yes. She walked down the aisle wearing a white veil and champagne-colored lace dress, while Suarez wore a long-sleeved, cream-colored guayabera. They exchanged vows at the nursing home where they met.
Cobar's daughter, Ana, took care of the decorations and flowers while the nursing home provided the arch and balloons. It was an actual wedding said Katrina Suarez, granddaughter of the groom:
"I don't think I've been to friends' weddings that were this elaborate. Everybody was ecstatic and all the old people were so happy. It was just so nice to see something so sweet."
The nursing home employees all chipped in to surprise the newlyweds with a mariachi band; the music inspired Suarez to get up from his wheelchair and dance with his lovely bride.
"It's not every day that you get to witness love like this, and especially at this stage in life," said Ilene Zweig, executive director for Plaza Health Network Foundation, which supports some of the programs at Aventura Plaza.
The couple now shares the same room, and they couldn't be happier. Cobar said it was worth waiting for Suarez, and she also told her daughter Ana that "Men like him do not exist anymore," and that "She thought he was very polite, very considerate, very special."
Their first trip as husband and wife will be for Thanksgiving dinner at Cobar's daughter house. She is absolutely thrilled that her mother found love; she said "They're such wonderful people, they found their soul mates. It shows there's no age limit for love."
The couple also has plans to have a beautiful honeymoon, out of the nursing home, and enjoy life together as much as they can. A heartwarming reminder that love has no limit, it is stronger than color, culture, sexual orientation, and definitely age.

AMD - Asynchronous Module Definition API. This is powerful and flexible mechanism of the framework which allows you to define module, load it and its dependencies asynchronously.
Register module
Register module files with unique identifier. And it also defines module dependencies which will be loaded before module.
If module module id do not be unique it will overwrite existing one.
id: 'liveChat',
depend: {
js: ['http://chat-domain.com/js/chat-api.js'],
css: ['http://chat-domain.com/css/chat.css']
file: {
js: ['modules/my-chat.js'],
css: ['modules/my-chat.css']
beforeInclude: function() {},
afterInclude: function() {},
loadOnScreen: ['md', 'lg'],
onWindowLoad: true
id- Module identifier. It should be unique. In case it already exist, it will overwrite existing module.
depends- Module dependencies. Usually your module can depend from another third party scripts, e.g. jQuery plugin.
Here you can include it before module, to be use it will be available on module initialization.
file- Module main files. These files will be loaded only after dependency files.
beforeInclude- This callback will be executed before all files (depend + file) including.
afterInclude- This callback will be executed after all files (depend + file) will be included and loaded.
loadOnScreen- Define what screen size your module will be loaded automatically.
If screen size does not fit, module do not be loaded automatically, but still available to load via
Also module will not be loaded automatically if it is registered in
data-load-modulebecause it will be included after content of element be loaded.
Possible values:
lg. Values dimensions are setup from
breakpointsinitialization option.
onWindowLoad- Indicates whether module will be loaded on window
Include module
Registered modules are included automatically when DOM is ready by
loadOnScreen option if it exists. And there is a ways to do it manually.
This is programmatic via Moff API
Moff.amd.include method. If module was included before, callback will be executed immediately.
Moff.amd.include('liveChat', function() {
// This callback will be executed when all files be loaded
}, {reload: true});
The method gets three arguments:
id- Id of registered module.
callback- Function which will be executed when all registered file be loaded.
options- Object with the only property
reload. Forces to re-include all registered files.

The moon went full last Saturday night. Did you feel some big feels? I definitely did.
I'm fascinated by the moon. Maybe because it's the only satellite planet to Earth. We're entwined with its orbit. It pulls our tides. And its got this feminine "mystical beyond."
Looking up at that glowing orb after the sun sets, in the fullness of its reflected light, I can't say I'm in darkness or light... it's really both: I feel the illumination it brings and the dark shadows it casts. And even so, all those hard lines we create seem to soften into mystery when I look up at the moon.
On Sunday (the FULL WOLF moon, this time in LEO) our artist-in-residence Sarah Faith Gottesdeiner led us in the Moon Beaming workshop -- and it couldn't have been a more apt time to discuss the palpable, powerful energies of the moon!
Not surprisingly, there was a common thread around the table: an interest in exploring the physical / emotional / mystical connections to the moon, and a desire to increase intuition through studying its cycles.
At the start of the workshop, Sarah covered some basic facts about the moon as well as various cultural beliefs and traditions. (Most of these discussion points are covered in her labor of love, the TWELVE MOONS workbook!)
Lots of cultural and spiritual traditions have observed the moon, and the moon has had a distinct connection to humanity in feminine terms throughout history. As a diety, the moon has taken many forms as goddesses, and not to mention its cycle is linked to menstrual cylces (both around 28 days). Lunar and menstrual cycles have been relied upon for marking time as well. (month=moon=menses)
Astrologically, the moon resonates with the deeply emotional parts of ourselves, and it rules the house in our chart that relates to our private, inner, intuitive, unconscious, "shadow" selves… some even would use words like "dark," to discuss these hidden parts and "feminine" to describe these emotional sides in ourselves.
Although we have seen these cycles linked and celebrated, we have also seen them condemned, where luna (Latin for moon) has become attached to negative terms like "lunacy" and "lunatic" : "As patriarchal institutions took hold, the power affixed to the life giving attributes of the female and her monthly cycle disintegrated…and their wisdom decreed "lunacy." [taken from the workbook]
But to any of us who identify as women or who love and respect women: we HONOR the cycles and their wisdom, DUH.
So naturally, Sarah introduced us to the moon as a triple goddess. According to Wiccan tradition, it has three archetypes corresponding to its phases:
This triple archetype helps us to see the changing nature of a cycle, with the progression of growth and wisdom. IT ALSO KEEPS REMINDING US HOW BADASS CRONES ARE!
Then we went over some basic marked phases of the lunar cycle:
We discussed rituals and incantations that can be done during these phases, and ended the workshop with a guided candlelit meditation. (The workbook includes more explanations and helpful suggestions, with journalling prompts for each New, First Quarter, Full, and Last Quarter Moon.)
Looking to the moon and understanding its phases and rhythms is a way of grounding ourselves, essentially. By working with the energies of the moon, we can "harness" its forces, as Sarah says, in calling attention to our hopes and dreams. Not exclusive from our physical cycles (or the self-care related to that) we can begin to understand what each phase is a helpful time for manifesting.
This workshop shed some light (pun intended?) on the moon as a powerful guide, and a force that we can tap into for listening to ourselves, deepening our intuition, and loving ourselves more fully.
By the end of the workshop, we had better understanding not only of the moon's power, but also our own!!
Sarah will be available for tarot readings TODAY at the shop! [Sarah's moon magic and intuitive advice can be found at visualmagic.info]

A culture of official secrecy is entrenched throughout Britain's public services, claim regional newspaper editors.
According to the initial findings of a survey carried out by the
Newspaper Society, official bodies routinely use data protection as an
excuse to withhold information and hide behind press officers.
Courts make unnecessary reporting restrictions and there is
scepticism about the ability of public authorities to comply with the
Freedom of Information Act when it comes into force next year. Editors
have also reported secrecy issues surrounding new-style council
Mike Glover, editor of the Westmorland Gazette, said: "The culture of secrecy and anonymity is rampant.
The real problem for the media is that the public at large is sympathetic with this tide.
"All the debate is driven by high-profile national examples of
intrusion. The public at large doesn't understand the impact that
secrecy and privacy have on their community newspapers."
The Newspaper Society press freedom survey concludes on May 9. The full findings are expected to be released later in the year.

Cybersecurity is now one of the top concerns for organizations across all industries as the number of malicious attacks and growing sophistication continue to rise, according to recent research.
The report conducted by EY – formerly Ernst & Young – "Under Cyber Attack, EY's Global Information Security Survey 2013," found that the rising threat of cyberattacks is changing the way businesses prepare and defend against external hazards.
Nearly three-quarters of organizations surveyed noted "information security policies are now owned at the highest organizational level," the report cited. The reality of IT security is leading companies to adopt more proactive data protection approaches to counter growing risks.
EY categorized cyberattacks into three divisions, according to Forbes contributor Tom Groenfeldt:
- State actors attempting to steal intellectual property
- Organized crime aimed at stealing money
- Hackers disrupting organizations for belief in some cause
From cybercrime syndicates in China to hacker groups like Anonymous, the rewards of network intrusions can be bountiful, and businesses need to make the necessary adjustments to prevent potential IT security breaches of stored data.
"Data protection is no longer being treated as another line item in a contract or something that organizations simply assume third parties do," the report cited. "Three-quarters of respondents indicate that their organizations mandate self-assessments, or commission an independent external assessment, of the information security measures performed by external partners, vendors or contractors who have access to their data."
Advanced solutions are crucial to overall security, especially since many organizations continue to run on legacy technology that is sometimes 15-years-old, creating an easy target for hackers looking to gain access into stored data.
The importance of secure data storage cannot be overstated. For businesses that lack in-house expertise or infrastructure, deploying solutions offered by credible service providers can be the most dependable method for protecting stored company data.

I decided to take a couple days off from blogging. My weekend was jam-packed.
I spent most of my time at my dads, taking pictures of my younger sibs. My little sister is just too cute not to photograph, and I ended up getting some killer shots.
And spending time with that sister only gets me more excited to see my other sister.
4 days.....

David Haye and Wladimir Klitschko, Boxing Box Office Hit in the MakingDecember 4, 2010
David Haye is one of the most successful boxers to come out of United Kingdom after Lennox Lewis. Haye is someone who impressed as a cruiserweight when he turned professional in 2001.
After soaring up the rankings in the next couple of years, in 2004 he made a failed attempt to capture the IBO cruiserweight title. After impressing for a couple more years, Haye challenged Jean-Marc Mormeck for the WBC and WBA cruiserweight titles in 2007.
He won by technical knockout (TKO) and emerged as a genuine title contender. In 2008, after impressively defending his cruiserweight titles against Maccarinelli (another British boxer), Haye announced he was moving to the Heavyweight division.
His first fight as a Heavyweight was back in 2006 when he had beaten the Number 11 ranked polish boxer Tomasz Bonin but he switched back to the Cruiserweight division after the fight. This time he was to stay as a Heavyweight.
When Haye beat Monte Barret in late 2008, there was news that the Klitschko brothers wanted him. This was confirmed by the Vitali in a news conference that he would take on Haye for his WBC Heavyweight title. The date and venue were going to be 20th June 2009 in Stamford Bridge London.
What followed was dramatic to say the least. As fans waited patiently for the match, it was declared that the fight would be between Vitali's younger brother Wladimir and Haye.
The fight was shifted to Germany but the date was to remain unchanged. In the end, to the disappointment of fans around the globe, Haye pulled out citing a back injury as the main problem.
Since then Haye has been crowned as the WBA Heavyweight Champion. He beat Nikoley Valuev in a match dubbed as 'David and Goliath' due to the size difference of the two fighters. Yet Haye more than made up for it with speed and agility.
The world title meant two things, firstly Haye was a very good fighter secondly everyone wanted Haye vs Klitschko. This also silenced the Klitschko brothers for a while as after Haye's withdrawal from their initial fight they had repeatedly announced that Haye had chickened out. Haye was in no hurry to face either of the brothers and hence he chose to fight the American John Ruiz.
After beating Ruiz by TKO in the ninth round, it was Haye's turn to get in the Klitschko brother's minds. Haye immediately said he wanted both the Klitschko brothers and belittled their recent challengers Eddie Chambers and Chris Arreola saying these fights were a disgrace to boxing. He also claimed that the Klitschko brothers were to blame for the Klitschko vs Haye fight not taking place. Haye decided to fight Harrison for the time being and knocked him out in two rounds.
Since then the Klitschko brothers have agreed to Haye's demand of a 50-50 pot. This was confirmed by their manager Bernd Bonte. He also claimed that Haye vs the Brothers would be a very big match, he went as far as to say that this would be "even bigger than Pacquiao-Mayweather".
Bonte cleared that although Haye was ready to split the pot but he wanted to keep his pay per view television money to himself which would make it a virtually 70-30 split in Haye's favour. This was not acceptable to the brothers.
There is no doubt that the fight is going to be huge if either of the brothers faces Haye. The money involved will also be huge as Haye is a top fighter and the Klitschko brothers have been the cash cows of Heavyweight boxing for the last few years. The fans can only wait and hope that the fight takes place before the end of next year, otherwise it might never happen as Haye claims he wants to retire next year.
