Vibram FiveFingers

Vibram FiveFingers shoes have been around for a couple of years but the word is spreading that they are good. You will find them on Amazon.com in many styles and colors for around $75.00. Even if FiveFingers aren't the perfect running shoe it seems they would be great for bike riding, weight training, and kayaking just to name a few fitness activities. Each style has suggested sports that the shoes would be suitable for.
Right here in Concord, Massachusetts the company, Vibram, teamed up with Dr. Daniel Leiberman of Harvard University for scientific research of barefoot and/or running without too much on the foot. They came up with FiveFingers. They remind me in a way of Crocs. People said they were ugly. They now come in many styles and so many colors! They are the most comfortable shoe I've worn and I think they're cute. I will have to let you tell me about your experiences with FiveFingers.
"Motion studies demonstrate that when running barefoot, one naturally lands on the forefoot, directly below your center of gravity. This results in optimum balance, increased stability, less impact, and greater propulsion. According to Dr. Ivo Waerlop of the Vibram Biomechanics Advisory Board, “Running in FiveFingers improves agility, strength, and equilibrium, plus it delivers sensory feedback that allows runners to make immediate corrections in their form. This greatly improves running efficiency.”

Omer Bhatti Pictures

Michael Jackson’s secret son 25 years Omar Bhatti Norwegian rapper (mother Pia Bhatti) is no secret now, you will found him in most of the recent family photos. Even couple of weeks ago Omar Bhatti was allowed to sat in the front row circled by the Jackson family at the Michael Jackson’s memorial service at the Los Angeles .
Presently Mr Bhatti is seeking a DNA test to prove that he is really Jackson’s son. Jermaine Jackson Michael’s brother had announced that Omer Bhatti will be welcomed into the family if he could prove that he is the fourth child of Jackson. A Fox News report in 2004 claimed Michael had been telling his friends he was the father, but they were unsure whether or not to believe him.
Jermaine also added that he is not yet sure whether Omer is his brother’s son. But if he is a Jackson, he would be treated exactly the same as Michael’s three younger children, Prince Michael, 12, Paris Michael, 11, and Blanket (Prince Michael II) seven. However, Omer’s appearance and his physical similarities to Michel ’s official son Blanket, has indeed fuelled speculation that he might be the son of Michael Jackson( see picture at the top).

Anabela Mota Janke

Anabela Mota Janke might well go down as one of the great free speech cases of our time. Or as an alternative, you might think that Anabela Mota Janke's (some are spelling it Jenke) case will end up displaying the absurdity that the defense of the First Amendment has now become. The essential background is that Anabela Mota Janke also performs as a porn "star" (we believe that "star" is the correct signifier for anyone in this industry:
almost no one is ever described as a bit part player in porn films) under the name Jazella Moore. She even has her own website (here) which contains what might be called light cheesecake shots (certainly nothing so revealing as Playboy these days) and some dribs and drabs of cod philosohphy: I discovered that by approaching sexual pleasure resolved of guilt and fear and with need distilled to shared, creative adventure, the paradox of the Madonna/Whore was broken and with that the power of ecstatic joy could triumph.
Err, yes dear: it's not all that unusual for girls educated by nuns to grow up into women who are indeed interested in sex. The Catholic Church would have many fewer adherents in this generation if that were not true. However, this is not what has brought Anabela to fame from her origins in Portugal. No, she is married to Scott Janke, something which is no doubt very nice for both Scott and Anabela. Scott, until very recently, worked as the City Manager for Fort Myers Beach in Florida.
