A Look Back At Classic British Super Middleweight Fights Ahead Of Smith Groves

The pair had met months earlier down at 160lbs for the WBO belt where Eubank took the spoils via majority decision, but this time they were a division north competing for the same title....
A Lot Of People Had Aaron Rodgers Cameo In Game Of Thrones Dead Wrong
Ahead of Sunday night’s fireball of an episode on “Game of Thrones,” we were made aware Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was going to make an appearance. He said as much during an interview at the Kentucky Derby, so NFL fans were on the lookout for Rodgers all episode. The problem is that a lot of people in this show apparently look like Aaron Rodgers. MORE: Updated NFL Power Rankings after the NFL Draft...
A Man On The Move
As a basketball player, Bradley’s skill was to move without the ball. He let the flow of the game come to him. He was slower than other guys, and short for his position. But he knew where to be when the game was on the line, and used sharp elbows to get there. As it was then, so it is now. After twice shying away from running for president–in 1988 and 1992–Bradley, at 55, sees the game coming to him....
A Man Shamed His Girlfriend Into Shaving Her Legs And The Women Of The Internet Are Not Having It
The post was uploaded to the Twitter account @AITA_reddit and quickly gained nearly 1,000 comments with loud opinions. Here’s the rundown of what this guy published online: He said he was showering with his girlfriend when she noted that she should shave her armpits. The man then suggested that she start shaving her legs next. In his defense, the man claims the woman suggested she shave the hair on her legs, too, which was getting long....

A Nuclear North All Over Again
Last October we learned that once again American intelligence caught the North cheating–the goal this time was not plutonium but highly enriched uranium. As before, the inspectors were thrown out, the North said it was pulling out of the NPT, and it has again resorted to saber rattling. The similarities between the two nuclear confrontations are striking–but so are the strategic differences. First, this time North Korea admits it has a secret uranium-enrichment program, and claims it already has some nuclear weapons....
A Nuclear War Between India And Pakistan Could Kill Twice As Many People As Wwii Study Finds
The study, co-authored by researchers at Rutgers University, quantifies just how catastrophic a nuclear conflict between the two nations would be. In addition to the 100 million-plus death toll in the immediate aftermath, the study authors warn we could expect global vegetation growth to decline 20 to 35 percent as ocean productivity fell 5 to 15 percent—a result that would cause mass starvation, ecosystem disruption and more deaths. It could take over a decade to fully recover from the impacts, they say....
A One Two Vs. Cancer
Invasive cervical cancer is expected to strike 12,800 women this year, killing one third. For decades, doctors have treated the disease by surgically removing tumors or by targeting the pelvic area with radiation. Chemotherapy, a bodywide assault, seemed unnecessary. But the new studies suggest that chemo works synergistically with radiation, inhibiting cancer cells’ ability to repair themselves after treatment. And it has only moderate side effects, such as nausea....

A Princess In Disguise
The woman who brought her fragile, indelible grace to “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” (1961) and “Charade” (1963), “My Fair Lady” (1964), “Sabrina” (1954) and “Two for the Road” (1967) died last week of cancer at 63 at her home in Tolochenaz, Switzerland, outside Lausanne. As much an epitome of class in life as on screen, she had tirelessly devoted herself since 1988 to her work as an ambassador for UNICEF. Last year her trip to Somalia helped focus the world’s attention on that tragic land....
A Pro Western Azerbaijan Deserves American Support Opinion
However, we unite in our support of Sunni-majority Turkey’s Shi’a ally, Azerbaijan, an unabashedly pro-Western country, as it is unfairly smeared in certain political, diplomatic and media circles for having the audacity to defend itself in the latest round of bloody fighting with its neighbor, Armenia. Both nations reside in the South Caucasus region, which borders Iran, and had declared their independence from the imploding Soviet Union in 1991. The Soviets had a policy of instigating and backing sectarian tensions, and a Kremlin-backed Armenian invasion of Azerbaijan immediately followed, resulting in the capture of some 20 percent of the latter’s territory (the Karabakh region and seven adjacent territories) and ethnic cleansing of the region....
A Question Of Foul Play Off The Court
Police are especially interested in Dennehy’s relationship with one of his roommates, Carlton Dotson. Neighbors say the two were very close, and went practically everywhere together. Last week a friend of Dennehy’s told police that the men may have bought guns. Dennehy had complained that a mysterious man named “Harvey” was threatening him, and he may have wanted to protect himself. Those guns could prove critical to the case. According to court documents released last week, an informant told investigators that Dotson said he and Dennehy had gotten into an argument while the two men were shooting guns on a property 21 miles north of the campus....
A Reddit User Correctly Predicted The Ravens First Round Draft Picks A Month Early

A Regional Race Into Cyberspace
Yes, even with Latin America mired in recession, there are jewels to be found there–provided you look in the globe’s most promising industry. StarMedia isn’t the only Internet service provider doing so. Yahoo!, AOL, PSINet and other U.S. giants are all on the prowl, too. But with its U.S. roots and its Latin focus, New York and Miami-based StarMedia may be the most interesting of the companies racing to bring Latin America online....
A Reward For Good Behavior
Next month, Ibrahim’s eponymous foundation will announce the first winner of its Achievement in African Leadership Prize. It will be by far the world’s most generous annual philanthropic prize, worth three times as much as the Nobel: the winner will receive $5 million—spread out over 10 years—and $200,000 per year beyond that, until death. Only democratically elected sub-Saharan leaders can qualify. They will be judged by how well they’ve performed in eight categories, including offering security to their citizens, as well as promoting the rule of law, economic opportunity and political freedom....
A Rocket Man Falls To Earth
For a while, Ismail did sound like he had quite a set of pompons. “I’m here to have some fun in the great north,” he reportedly said, while his fellow Argos, whose combined salaries do not equal his, sweated through camp. “It’s just not that serious a thing.” Ismail’s very contract, which called for him to receive a $50,000-$100,000 car and a part ownership of the franchise, looked like an act of arrogance....

A Sleeping Sickness
In my mid-30s I gave up on Western medicine, which had never really helped me, and began seeing an acupuncturist-herbologist. In no time this drippy-throated, “soupy” body of mine felt better. In fact, if I was vigilant with my diet (like a lot of people I seem to be very susceptible to gluten, which caused an increase in postnasal drip, dried out my throat and made me lethargic) and kept up with the herbs, I could pretty much keep things at bay....
