LYOTO MACHIDA(with blood) WINS BY A DECISION
Lyoto Machida retained the Ultimate Fighting Championship light heavyweight title, scoring a unanimous decision over Mauricio “Shogun” Rua that didn’t sit well with the large Saturday night crowd in the Staples Center.
The fans booed Machida lustily after he took a 48-47 verdict from the former PRIDE Fighting Championship star. Rua hurt Machida with numerous leg kicks and bloodied his mouth, making Machida look vulnerable for the first time in his career.
Machida was never able to land the counter strikes that have caused problems for his first 15 opponents. Machida was forced to fend off Rua’s kicks and also deal with Rua’s movement.
It was a very tactical fight and both men scored their share of solid blows.
All three Yahoo! Sports reporters on hand scored the fight in favor of Rua, as this reporter and Dave Doyle scored it 48-47 and Dave Meltzer had it at 49-46. Rua seemed to pull out the final round with a solid five minutes.

I have been playing with artificial neural networks for nearly twenty years and thought it would be good to share some of the stuff I have learnt. In these posts, I will be writing about the evolution of neural networks and machine learning, from the most basic Perceptron through to some of the most advanced stock market prediction and image recognition software. All my code samples will be written in C#, as I think it is a fantastic language. If you have any questions or suggestions for future posts, please add a comment. Hope you enjoy.

Chiz Escudero for Presedent by: joemarie alagao
2009 Sona: Sana...Totoo by Chiz Escuderoby Chiz Escudero (videos)
6:06
The 2009 SONA-SANA video seeks to provide a candid evaluation of the Arroyo presidency, which has, for the past seven SONAs, failed to provide an accurate assessment of the state of our nation.
In the video, which will be made available to the public via the internet, opposition Sen. Francis Joseph "Chiz" G. Escudero reports on how the president has failed to meet the very standards she set when she took over the presidency in 2001. And how––despite holding her position for over eight years––the country continues to suffer, particularly in the areas of education, job generation, food security, and good governance.
Aside from giving a somber account of the state of the nation, Sen. Escudero also points out what should have been done to address the country's myriad problems, and looks forward as he presents alternatives so that the questionable policies of the present administration can be rectified.
Lyoto Machida, My UFC Idol (light heavy weight champion of the world)
Lyoto Carvalho Machida (born May 30, 1978) is a Japanese-Brazilian mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter who fights as a light heavyweight in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and is the current UFC Light Heavyweight Champion. As of June 2009[update], Machida is undefeated in his professional MMA career, and in his UFC career has yet to lose a round. He is currently ranked as the #1 light-heavyweight fighter in the world[3] and the #4 pound-for-pound fighter[4] by jomari.
The son of a first-generation Japanese-Brazilian Shotokan karate master, Yoshizo Machida (町田 嘉三, Machida Yoshizō?), Machida holds an undefeated record by jomari.,.hehe
Cory Aquino
GLOBAL ICON OF DEMOCRACY,CORAZON AQUINOAn icon of democracy whose unexpected rise to power in 1986 gave birth to the term 'people power' in the world’s political lexicon. A reluctant president and survivor of six coup attempts. A moral force known for her stubbornness even if told she was wrong.
These are some of the ways that Filipinos are remembering former Philippine President Corazon Aquino, who died before dawn Saturday after a battle with colon cancer. She was 76.
But for many in this South-east Asian country of more than 90 million people, Aquino – a widow who led a popular movement against the dictator Ferdinand Marcos and was later catapulted to power in a bloodless revolt – was simply ‘Tita Cory’ (Auntie Cory).
'She was the only President we called ‘auntie’ because she was the only one really close to our hearts', mused one woman who had come to the memorial park where Aquino’s body was first brought Saturday.
Later on, amid a shower of yellow confetti, the former President’s body was brought to La Salle high school gymnasium for the public wake before the private burial on Wednesday. Thousands, many in yellow – the pro-Cory Aquino colour -- had gathered outside the gymnasium Saturday afternoon.
On Saturday, flags flew at half-mast across the country. Masses were said in churches in this mainly Catholic nation. Volleys of fire in 30-minute intervals, traditionally given when former presidents pass away, took place in military camps in the country.
President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo declared a 10-day period of national mourning and said the country had 'lost a national treasure'. The Aquino family however has chosen not to have a state funeral usually given to former presidents.
While the death did not come as a surprise since Aquino had taken a turn for the worse in recent weeks and she had been a private citizen since stepping down from the presidency in 1992, her death made many Filipinos reflect on the state of democracy and political affairs in their country.
Aquino’s transition from being a partner to her husband Benigno, who had been Marcos’ nemesis, to president began in 1983.
Against the backdrop of a country reeling from difficult economic ties and a growing communist rebellion, Filipinos’ anger deepened after Corazon’s husband was assassinated upon his arrival at the Manila airport on Aug. 21, 1983. Opposition grew over the next years, until Marcos called a snap election on his rule in February 1986.
Massive cheating occurred and Filipinos found in Corazon Aquino the symbol of the end to Marcos’ 20-year dictatorship they wanted.
Within four days in February 1986 – the ‘People Power’ revolt -- top military leaders withdrew their support from Marcos. Millions flooded into the city’s streets, demanding that he step down from power and on Feb. 25, with the nudging of the U.S. government, Marcos flew into exile in Hawaii.
Aquino was president for six years, during which she oversaw the drafting of a new Constitution, restored democratic institutions and reopened Congress that Marcos shut down during martial rule, began the unfinished process of recovering billions in dollars in Marcos’ ill-gotten wealth, and restored press freedom.
She had her critics, from those who said she did not introduce radical enough reforms to others who said she was not presidential material.
But in retrospect, Aquino’s legacy goes beyond those, some say, to her brand of integrity.
'Aquino will always symbolise the pure, understated power of just causes and how the justness and sheer righteousness of a cause can make plain housewives triumph over powerful tyrants,' Teodoro Casino, party-list representative in the lower house of Congress, said in an interview.
Casino recalls that as a student activist, he was disappointed by Aquino’s failure to institute social and economic reforms. But 'her failures, which left me frustrated and disillusioned, will always pale in comparison to that singular triumph of People Power,' he said.
Like Casino, University of the Philippines professor and former anti-Marcos activist Pamela Fernandez is critical of aspects of Aquino’s presidency - including the failure to pass a genuine land reform programme. But 'she’s part of the actualisation of the destiny of our nation, ' Fernandez said, because of her part in restoring democratic institutions in the country.
'It was her moral ascendancy, impeccable integrity and sincere love for country,' Gwen Garcia, governor of the central province of Cebu, said of her legacy. 'Whether we agreed with what she was doing or not, we knew that she loved the Philippines and she truly believed that it was the right thing to do.'
In her retirement, Aquino set up a foundation that sought to help people with microfinance and empowerment. She had also taken up painting.
Aquino mostly stayed out of politics. But in December 2008, she caused a furore when she apologised to former President Joseph Estrada for supporting a popular movement in 2001 to oust him from office on accusations of corruption. 'We all make mistakes, so please forgive me,' she said to Estrada. Supporters later said her remarks had been misinterpreted.
She had also been critical of incumbent President Arroyo, whose resignation she sought in 2005 after allegations of electoral fraud.
As heavy rains poured over the Philippine capital, hours after Aquino’s son Benigno, a senator named after his assassinated father, announced her death, 40-something year-old domestic worker Norma Nicol cried. 'It’s raining. Everyone’s weeping because Cory died.'

colgate the #1 brand recomended by dentists
http://thm-a02.yimg.com/image/4414ba915b71cb3eHistory
In 1806, William Colgate, himself a soap and candle maker, opened up a starch, soap, and candle factory on Dutch Street in New York City under the name of "William Colgate & Company". In the 1840s, the firm began selling individual bars in uniform weights. In 1857, William Colgate died and the company was reorganized as "Colgate & Company" under the management of Samuel Colgate, his son. In 1872, Colgate introduced Cashmere Bouquet, a perfumed soap. In 1873, the firm introduced its first toothpaste, an aromatic toothpaste sold in jars. His company sold the first toothpaste in a tube, Colgate Ribbon Dental Cream, in 1896. By 1908 they initiated mass selling of toothpaste in tubes. His other son, James Boorman Colgate, was a primary trustee of Colgate University (formerly Madison University).
In Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the "B.J. Johnson Company" was making a soap entirely of palm and olive oil, the formula of which was developed by B.J. Johnson in 1898. The soap was popular enough to rename their company after it - "Palmolive".[1] At the turn of the century Palmolive, which contained both palm and olive oils, was the world's best-selling soap, and extensive advertising included The Palmolive Hour, a weekly radio concert program which began in 1927. A Kansas based soap manufacturer known as the "Peet Brothers" merged with Palmolive to become Palmolive-Peet. In 1928, Palmolive-Peet bought the Colgate Company to create the Colgate-Palmolive-Peet Company. In 1953 "Peet" was dropped from the title, leaving only "Colgate-Palmolive Company", the current name.
Colgate-Palmolive has long been in fierce competition with Procter & Gamble, the world's largest soap and detergent maker. P&G introduced its Tide laundry detergent shortly after World War II, and thousands of consumers turned from Colgate's soaps to the new product. Colgate lost its number one place in the toothpaste market when P&G started putting fluoride in its toothpaste. In the beginning of television, "Colgate-Palmolive" wished to compete with Procter & Gamble as a sponsor of soap operas. Although the company sponsored many shows in part, they were most famous for being the full sponsor of the serial The Doctors.
George Henry Lesch was president, CEO, and chairman of the board of Colgate-Palmolive in the 1960s and 1970s, and during that time transformed it into a modern company with major restructuring.
In 2005, Colgate sold the underperforming brands Fab, Dynamo, Arctic Power, ABC, Cold Power and Fresh Start, as well as the license of the Ajax brand for laundry detergents in the U.S, Canada and Puerto Rico, to Phoenix Brands, LLC as part of their plan to focus on their higher margin oral, personal, and pet care products.[2]
In 2006, Colgate-Palmolive announced the intended acquisition of Tom's of Maine, a leading maker of natural toothpaste, for US $100M. Tom's of Maine was founded by Tom Chappell in 1970.
Today, Colgate has numerous subsidiary organisations spanning 200 countries, but it is publicly listed in only two, the United States and India.
In June 2007, counterfeit Colgate toothpaste imported from China was found to be contaminated with diethylene glycol, and several people in eastern U.S. reported experiencing headaches and pain after using the product.[3] The tainted products can be identified by the claim to be manufactured in South Africa by Colgate-Palmolive South Africa LTD, they are 5oz/100ml tubes (a size which Colgate does not sell in the United States) and the tubes/packaging contain numerous mis-spellings on their labels. Colgate-Palmolive claims that they do not import their products from South Africa into the United States or Canada and that DEG is never and was never used in any of their products anywhere in the world. The counterfeit products were found in smaller "mom and pop" stores, dollar stores and discount stores in at least four states.[4]
[edit] Educational and community involvement
In 1890, Madison University in New York State was re-named Colgate University in honor of the Colgate family following decades of financial support and involvement.[citation needed]
Also, for the past 34 years[citation needed] the Colgate-Palmolive Company has sponsored a non-profit track meet open to women of all ages. This event is called the Colgate Women's Games. The Colgate Women's Games is the nation's largest amateur track series open to all girls from elementary school through college. Held at Brooklyn's Pratt Institute, competitors participate in preliminary meets and semi-finals over five weekends throughout January. Finalists compete for trophies and educational grants-in-aid from Colgate-Palmolive Company at New York City's Madison Square Garden in February. The goal is to provide an athletic competition that helps the participating young girls and women develop a strong sense of personal achievement, self-esteem, instill the importance of education and provide a training ground for those who might not otherwise participate in an organized sport.[citation needed]
[edit] Environmental record
The Ethical Consumer Research Association once recommended that its readers do not buy Colgate because of its use of animal testing, though this is no longer the case. The Ethical Consumer Association has also urged a boycott on many other products, including all products from the country of Canada. Ethiscore.org has rated Colgate a 5.5 out of a possible 20.[5] However, the company has made important steps and according to PETA "in March 1999, Colgate-Palmolive established a moratorium on animal testing for adult personal care products (this includes deodorants, shampoos, fragrances, and shaving creams)."[6]
Colgate-Palmolive, as a successor to The Mennen Company, is one of about 300 companies held potentially responsible for hazardous waste at the Chemsol federal Superfund site in Piscataway, New Jersey.[7] Their involvement in this site may have contributed to the contamination of an estimated 18,500 cubic yards (14,100 m3) of soil with volatile organic compounds (VOCs), PCBs, and lead off-site. A proposed $23 million agreement with the government and state of New Jersey would require Colgate-Palmolive and the other involved companies to pay for the cleanup of this hazardous waste that is contaminating the soil as well as the groundwater.[8] On a positive note, the company completed a LEED Silver certified manufacturing plant in Morristown, TN in March 2008 which was the first of its kind in the U.S.[9]
[edit] Corporate governance
Current members of the board of directors of Colgate-Palmolive are: John T. Cahill, Jill Conway, Ellen Hancock, David W. Johnson, Richard Kogan, Delano Lewis, J. Pedro Reinhard, and Stephen I Sadove.
Chief Executive Rueben Mark retired July 1, 2007. Ian M. Cook, President and CEO, replaced him.
[edit] Employment diversity
Colgate-Palmolive was named one of the "100 Best Companies for Working Mothers" in 2004 by Working Mothers magazine

Colgate Palmolive has closed or is in the process of phasing out production at certain facilities under a restructuring program initiated in 2004 and has built new state-of-the-art plants to produce toothpaste in the U.S. and Poland.[10][11]
[edit] Advertising
The iconic hand on the Palmolive dishwashing soap label belongs to Elizabeth Barbour. The image is a highly illustrated photograph taken in 1985 when the Colgate-Palmolive Company updated the image and hired Barbour who was a hand model with the Ford Agency in New York City.
