Europe on EDGE!!!

First it was the Euro currency declining in value due to the overwhelming dept in Greece, then there was the huge oil spill in the Gulf, for which British Petroleum been handed majority blame, and then there is the active volcano that keeps spitting out ash that’s bringing travel across the Euro zone to a halt. It seems that Europe just can’t catch a break.  The issues mentioned above are just the top of the iceberg when it comes to Europe’s woos, with many European nations considering adopting austerity programs to tame their monetary debt and the Pope attempting to address the sexual abuse cases of the Church in Europe.

Mosley gets Whupped by Floyd Maywether!!!

Floyd Mayweather, a.k.a The Scientist of Boxing, introduced Mosley to his punch lab. 

Shane Mosley has always been a great fighter but never became a true champion by successfully defending his titles.  He never looked comfortable in the spotlight either.  He basically had to approach Mayweather and ask for the chance to fight instead of the other way around.  “Sugar” Shane did rock “Money” Mayweather in the 2^nd round with a couple of strong right punches, but Mayweather held on (literally) and came back with an overall spectacular performance.  This was a great fight, which was much needed by the boxing establishment as the UFC and MMA continue to gain ground with fight fans all over the world.

2 Million Ipads sold and counting!!!

Move over Amazon Kindle, get out of the way Sony PSP, step aside netbooks, and make way for the incredible iPad.

 The numbers speak for themselves.  The Kindle has been on the market for at least 4 years in various configurations but has yet to reach 2 million units sold.  The PSP has an undersized screen and fails to take advantage of Sony’s wide array of media content including its movies, music, and internet in a user friendly format.

This is very sad, because long before Apple began to build its iTunes media content, Sony already had a huge catalogue of media.  This is a prime example of how poor vision and execution can prevent a company from capitalizing on an exploding market potential.
