Prince Harry filmed diving fully clothed into pool at a club in Croatia (Video)

    Prince Harry was caught on cam jumping with his clothes on into a pool at Veneranda Club on Croatia's trendy Hvar island.

    An amateur video shows the British royalty dancing beside the pool and then diving right into it after he lost his balance a bit. He comes up from the water and dances again.

    Check out the said video below:

    "Harry was dancing around with his arms in the air. He was having a great time and seemed pretty tipsy," a fellow clubber told British tabloid The Sun. "Suddenly he just jumped into the pool and one of his friends jumped in after him. Everyone thought it was really funny and Harry was laughing his head off. He was soaked to the skin but he didn't care. He loved being the center of attention."

    Another onlooker said, "Harry's dancing wasn't great. In fact it was embarrassing. But once they realized who he was, everyone wanted to have a photo with him."

    Prince Harry, 26, who recently broke up with British lingerie model Florence Brudenell-Bruce, reportedly left the club at dawn arm-in-arm with two local models.

    Hvar is said to be a favorite summer destination of celebrities. Gwyneth Paltrow, Gerard Depardieu and Steven Spielberg have reportedly visited the island in the past.Source URL: https://celebrityvma2011.blogspot.com/search/label/world

Bird Flu is back, mutant strain spreading: UN




    Bird Flu resurgence feared
    Bird Flu or the Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza H5N1 cases are on the rise again and the possibility of a major resurgence is being feared. These prompted the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) to advise health authorities around the world to step up surveillance and readiness.

    "Wild birds may introduce the virus, but people's actions in poultry production and marketing spread it," said Juan Lubroth, the chief veterinary officer of FAO.

    Lubroth added, "The general departure from the progressive decline in 2004-08 could mean that there will be a flare-up of H5N1 this autumn and winter, with people unexpectedly finding the virus in their backyard."

    Since 2003, there have been 565 individuals reported to have contracted Bird Flu. According to the UN, at least 331 of them died.

    Because of the Bird Flu, more than 400 million domestic poultry have been destroyed since 2003, damaging $20 billion to world's economies before bird flu was supposedly eradicated from the majority of the 63 nations infected in 2006 (bird flu peak).

    However, H5N1 has continued to be endemic in six countries - Vietnam, Indonesia, India, Egypt, China and Bangladesh.

    The number of domestic and wild birds infected fell from 4000 in 2006 to 302 in 2008. However, over the last twenty-four months, numbers have been steadily rising. 800 cases were reported in 2010-2011.

    A mutant strain of the deadly Bird Flu is reportedly spreading in Asia and other parts of the world. The FAO has described its risks to the human health as "unpredictable."

    At least eight people have reportedly died of Bird Flu in Cambodia this year.  Source URL: https://celebrityvma2011.blogspot.com/search/label/world

Virginia quake rattles Eastern US, Canada

    The magnitude 5.8 Virginia quake on Tuesday was felt as far away as Canada, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio, South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Illinois, New York and Massachusetts, according to reports.

    The quake, which had an epicenter located 14 km (9 miles) South Southwest of Mineral, Virgina, struck the area at 17:51:04 UTC (1:51 PM EDT) at a depth of 6 km (3.7 miles), the US Geological Survey (USGS) reported.

    The intraplate earthquake reportedly was the strongest in Virginia's recorded history since 1897.

    There are reports that many buildings were evacuated in New York and Philadelphia including the Capitol building and the Pentagon in Washington, DC.

    The temblor reportedly caused some damage to the Pentagon, the Washington National Cathedral and the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.

    In Virginia, two nuclear plants were taken offline because of the quake. A couple of airports were also temporarily closed.

    There were no immediate reports of casualties from the quake.Source URL: https://celebrityvma2011.blogspot.com/search/label/world

California earthquake more mellow than East Coast quake




    California earthquake vs Virginia quake
    Wondering why the 6.0-magnitude California earthquake in 2004 was felt only 200 miles away (as far away as San Francisco and Los Angeles) while the less powerful magnitude 5.8 Virginia quake last Tuesday felt as much as 500 miles away (as far north as Ottawa, Canada; as far south as Georgia, and as far west as Chicago)?

    According to U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) seismologist Lucy Jones, it is because of the differing geologic conditions of these two areas.

    "The crust out in the East Coast is older, colder and harder, and does a better job transmitting the energy. So it's felt over a much wider area," Jones told LA Times.

    In contrast, Jones added that in California, "the bad news is we have a lot of faults. The good news is all those faults break up our rock. And just like a cracked bell doesn't resonate as well as a solid bell, our cracked-up crust [weakens] the waves as they pass through. It dies off pretty rapidly.
    "But out there, the rocks are old and cold and hard, and do a lovely job of transmitting the energy," Jones said.

    A USGS article had also explained the phenomenon.

    "Western rock is relatively young, which means it absorbs a lot of the shaking caused by earthquakes. Thus, western earthquakes result in intense shaking close to the epicenter, but fade more quickly the farther the earthquakes travel.

    "In the eastern United States, on the other hand, the rock is far older, and so earthquakes can have a much larger and more widespread impact. Earthquake energy can therefore spread farther and have a greater impact." USGS wrote.Source URL: https://celebrityvma2011.blogspot.com/search/label/world

Bank of America 'most systematically risky' among major banks: NYU professor

    Bank of America is the most vulnerable and the most "systematically risky" of the major banks in the US, NYU finance professor Viral Acharya told Yahoo Finance. According to him, Bank of America will need more capital under some economic scenarios. He added that it is necessary for the government to analyze its books, perform another round of stress-tests, and, if needed, re-capitalize it.

5.8-magnitude earthquake jolts Virginia, USA on August 23, 2011

    Just hours after the Colorado earthquake, another temblor struck a US state Tuesday, the US Geological Survey (USGS) reported.

    According to its bulletin, the quake measured a Richter Scale reading of magnitude 5.8 (earlier reported to be 5.9) and had an epicenter located 14 km (9 miles) South Southwest of Mineral, Virgina at 17:51:04 UTC at a depth of 6 km (3.7 miles).

    The intraplate earthquake reportedly was the strongest in Virginia's recorded history since 1897. It was felt as far away as Ontario, Canada; Michigan; Pennsylvania; Ohio; South Carolina; North Carolina; New York and Massachusetts. Many buildings were evacuated in New York and Philadelphia including the Capitol building and the Pentagon in Washington, DC.

    There are also reports that it damaged the Pentagon, Washington National Cathedral and the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.

    A couple of airports were temporarily closed and two nuclear plants in Virginia were taken offline because of the quake.

Hurricane Greg heads to cool waters, expected to weaken - NHC

    Hurricane Greg is heading to cool waters and is expected to weaken during the next 48 hours, according to the 8:00 p.m. PDT, August 18, 2011 bulletin of the U.S. National Hurricane Center (NHC).
    Hurricane Greg Track Forecast | Source: NHC

    It added that Hurricane Greg was last located at about 380 miles Southwest of tip of Baja, California (18.9N 113.9W).

    According to the NHC, the weather disturbance is packing maximum winds of 80 mph and is moving in a West Nortwest direction at the rate of 14 mph, with an estimated central pressure of 982 MB, 29 inches.

    There were no watches or warnings raised.

    Here's a discussion from the NHC:

    HURRICANE GREG DISCUSSION NUMBER 10
    NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP072011
    800 PM PDT THU AUG 18 2011

    IT APPEARS THAT GREG HAS STARTED TO WEAKEN. THE MOST RECENT MICROWAVE IMAGERY INDICATES THAT THE EYE OF GREG HAS DISAPPEARED.

    GEOSTATIONARY IMAGERY SHOWED THAT THE CONVECTION NEAR THE CENTER THINNED OUT LATE THIS AFTERNOON...BUT SINCE THAT TIME A NEW BURST OF DEEP CONVECTION HAS FORMED OVER THE ESTIMATED CENTER. DVORAK T-NUMBERS HAVE STARTED TO DECREASE AND THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS LOWERED TO 70 KT. THE HURRICANE WILL BE MOVING OVER PROGRESSIVELY COOLER WATER AND INTO A MORE STABLE ENVIRONMENT DURING THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THIS SHOULD CAUSE STEADY WEAKENING AND GREG IS FORECAST TO BECOME A REMNANT LOW IN 3-4 DAYS.

    GREG IS MOVING WEST-NORTHWESTWARD OR 285 DEGREES AT 12 KT. THERE HAS BEEN NO CHANGE TO THE TRACK FORECAST REASONING. GREG SHOULD TURN WESTWARD TO THE SOUTH OF A MID/UPPER-LEVEL RIDGE THAT EXTENDS FROM NORTHERN MEXICO INTO THE EASTERN PACIFIC. THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE RIDGE IS FORECAST TO WEAKENING DURING THE NEXT DAY OR SO.

    THIS SHOULD RESULT IN A SLOW DOWN OF THE FORWARD SPEED OF THE CYCLONE. AS GREG WEAKENS AND BECOMES A SHALLOW CYCLONE...IT IS LIKELY TO TURN TOWARD THE WEST-SOUTHWEST IN THE LOW-LEVEL NORTHEASTERLY FLOW. THE NEW TRACK FORECAST IS ESSENTIALLY AN UPDATE OF THE PREVIOUS ADVISORY AND IS NEAR THE MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS.

Shark attack kills British honeymooner in Seychelles

    A shark attack has killed a British man spending his honeymoon in an island in Seychelles.


    A video report of the said shark attack incident courtesy of ITN News

    Ian Redmond, 30, was snorkeling off the Anse Lazio beach in Praslin when a 6-foot shark attacked and killed him.

    His wife Gemma Houghton, 27, was reportedly sunbathing on the beach when the incident happened.

    "We heard screaming and people started running down the beach towards the water.

    "Someone had seen a fin sticking out of the water, and then we saw a dinghy pulling a man from the water.

    "I saw the swimmer, who was missing a huge chunk of flesh from his left leg, so much so that I could see the bone of his thigh. He was sickeningly pale, but still had his flippers on both feet.

    "At this point, a woman ran over and started screaming. She said, 'That's my husband. We were just married.'

    "Someone grabbed her and tried to keep her away. People all over the beach were just hugging whoever was close to them or trying to keep any children from witnessing what was going on." an American man told Daily Mail.

    Just last August 2nd, another shark attack incident killed a 36-year-old French tourist diving in the area.

    Authorities reportedly had closed the beach and there is an ongoing hunt for the shark killer.Source URL: https://celebrityvma2011.blogspot.com/search/label/world

Noah's Ark theme park project aims to prove Bible stories are true

    Noah's Ark is being rebuilt in a theme park in Kentucky and it is said to prove truth of the Bible.

    Noah's Ark Theme Park

    Here's our featured story from the Canadian Press.

    HEBRON, Ky. - Tucked away in a nondescript office park in northern Kentucky, Noah's followers are rebuilding his ark.

    The biblical wooden ship built to weather a worldwide flood was 152 metres long and about 25 metres high, according to Answers in Genesis, a Christian ministry devoted to a literal telling of the Old Testament.

    This modern ark, to be nestled on a plot of about 325 hectares of rolling Kentucky farmland, isn't designed to rescue the world's creatures from a coming deluge. It's to tell the world that the Bible's legendary flood story was not a fable, but a part of human history.

    "The message here is, God's word is true," said Mike Zovath, project manager of the ark. "There's a lot of doubt: 'Could Noah have built a boat this big, could he have put all the animals on the boat?' Those are questions people all over the country ask."

    The ark will be the centrepiece of a proposed $155-million religious theme park, called the Ark Encounter, and will include other biblical icons like the Tower of Babel and an old world-style village.

    It's an expansion of the ministry's first major public attraction, the controversial Creation Museum. It opened in 2007 and attracted worldwide attention for presenting stories from the Bible as historical fact, challenging evolution and asserting that Earth was created about 6,000 years ago.

    11-year-old mayor names street "Justin Bieber Way" | AP
    Caroline Gonzalez, an 11-year-old girl who won a "Mayor for a Day" contest, renamed a street in her hometown after teen singer Justin Bieber when she took office for a short period of time.



    After a request from the tween mayor, a sign saying "Justin Bieber Way" went up on Main Street during a ceremony in Forney, Texas Tuesday.



    Caroline said she likes the "Baby" singer so much that is why she rebranded the street in his honor.



    "Because I really like Justin Bieber, I like his music and I like him. And I thought, why not have a street in my hometown named after my favorite singer?" she told E! Online.



    According to Press Association (PA), the contest meant to get young people interested in municipal government. It added that Caroline is active in student council, recycling and community service projects.



    The sign, which cost the local government about 20 dollars, was displayed only for the said day, PA said.



    Update: The sign was reportedly stolen. A new sign was made and will be up until Monday, the first day of school. - Dallas Morning News

London Riot Videos

    London riot turns mad!



    Said to be caused by local tensions and anger over economic situation which first flared after a peaceful protest in Tottenham over the fatal shooting of a man by police on Saturday, riots have spread over London the past days. Stores and shops were looted by angry teenagers and buildings were set to fire. They are said to be the worst riots in the British capital for years.

Teens and Facebook: Positive and Negative Effects

    Teens and Facebook: Positive and Negative Effects



    Facebook and other social networking sites can have harmful effects on teens according to a recent study.



    Harmful Effects of Facebook on Teens



    Dr. Larry Rosen, a Psychology professor at California State University, outlined his findings before the American Psychological Association over the weekend.



    “While nobody can deny that Facebook has altered the landscape of social interaction, particularly among young people, we are just now starting to see solid psychological research demonstrating both the positives and the negatives,” said Rosen.



    Here are negative effects of Facebook on kids according to Rosen:

    1. Teens who are heavy gamers or Facebook users have more trouble sleeping, higher levels of anxiety, depression, and stomach aches.



    2. Young adults and teens who spend their days inside Facebook are more narcissistic and show more signs of other psychological disorders, including antisocial behaviors, mania, and aggressive tendencies.



    3. Students who use more technology are likely to miss more school.



    4. The more teens and adults use Facebook, the more likely they are to also use alcohol.



    5. Students from junior high through college age were observed to generally check social networks or text messages every few minutes while studying, leading to lower test performance than students who focus for longer periods of time.



    6. The average teen sends 2000 texts per month, which can lead to problems communicating with family and even carpal tunnel syndrome in a few cases.
    Rosen also laid out the following positive influences linked to social networking:

    1. Young adults who spend more time on Facebook are better at showing “virtual empathy” to their online friends.



    2. Online social networking can help introverted adolescents learn how to socialize behind the safety of various screens, ranging from a two-inch smartphone to a 17-inch laptop.



    3. Social networking can provide tools for teaching in compelling ways that engage young students.
    “If you feel that you have to use some sort of computer program to surreptitiously monitor your child's social networking, you are wasting your time. Your child will find a workaround in a matter of minutes,” he said. “You have to start talking about appropriate technology use early and often and build trust, so that when there is a problem, whether it is being bullied or seeing a disturbing image, your child will talk to you about it.” Rosen advises parents.Source URL: https://celebrityvma2011.blogspot.com/search/label/world

Casey Anthony Trial Live Stream - June 23, 2011

    Casey Anthony's trial will be once again broadcast live via online streaming by WeshTV. Below will start sending live video feeds from the venue of Anthony's court trial at around 9:00 a.m. EDT (9 p.m., Philippine Time).


    Casey Anthony Trial Live Streaming - June 23, 2011 | Live Stream courtesy of WESH

    Casey Anthony was indicted for the murder of her 2 year-old daughter , Caylee Marie Anthony, in 2008. However, Casey claims that she did not harm her daughter and that she is not guilty of any of the charges filed against her.

    Here's a Wikipedia entry of Casey Anthony's Case:
    Disappearance

    Caylee Anthony was reported missing to the Orange County Sheriff's Office (Orlando, Florida, United States) on July 15, 2008, by her grandmother, Cynthia (Cindy) Anthony. Caylee had lived in her grandparents' home with her mother, Casey Anthony, until June 15, 2008. According to George Anthony, Caylee's grandfather, Casey left the family's home on June 16, 2008, taking Caylee, who was almost 3, with her. Cindy asked repeatedly during the month to see Caylee but Casey stated she was too busy with a work assignment in Tampa. At other times, she said Caylee was with a nanny at theme parks or the beach.

    Casey Anthony was first arrested on July 16, 2008, and was charged the following day with giving false statements, neglect of a child, and obstruction of a criminal investigation. The judge denied bail, saying Casey had shown "woeful disregard for the welfare of her child".

    Investigation

    When Detective Yuri Melich, with the Orange County Sheriff's Department, began investigating Casey Anthony, he found discrepancies in what she had told law enforcement in her signed statement. When questioned, Casey said her child was with a nanny. The nanny, however, was never seen by Casey's parents or her friends, boyfriends, family, or acquaintances.

    On August 11, 12, and 13, 2008, tips of a suspicious object found in a forested area near the Anthony residence were called in to police by a utility worker. After another report on December 11, 2008, the remains were found in a plastic bag. On December 12, the remains were tentatively identified as Caylee's.

    On August 21, 2008, Casey Anthony was released after one month of incarceration. She was released from the Orange County jail after her $500,200 bond was posted by California bail bondsman Leonard Padilla.

    She was arrested again on August 29, 2008, on charges of forgery, fraudulent use of personal information, and petty theft for forging $700 worth of checks and using her friend's credit cards without permission. Leonard Padilla subsequently rescinded the $500,200 in bail due to a lack of cooperation from Casey Anthony.

    On December 15, WFTV reported that more bones were found in the wooded area near where the skull was discovered. On December 19, 2008, medical examiner Jan Garavaglia confirmed that the remains found were those of Caylee Anthony. The death was ruled a homicide and cause of death was listed as undetermined

    Casey Anthony was indicted for the murder of her 2 year-old daughter , Caylee Marie Anthony, in 2008. However, Casey claims that she did not harm her daughter and that she is not guilty of any of the charges filed against her.

    Here's a Wikipedia entry of Casey Anthony's Case:
    Disappearance

    Caylee Anthony was reported missing to the Orange County Sheriff's Office (Orlando, Florida, United States) on July 15, 2008, by her grandmother, Cynthia (Cindy) Anthony. Caylee had lived in her grandparents' home with her mother, Casey Anthony, until June 15, 2008. According to George Anthony, Caylee's grandfather, Casey left the family's home on June 16, 2008, taking Caylee, who was almost 3, with her. Cindy asked repeatedly during the month to see Caylee but Casey stated she was too busy with a work assignment in Tampa. At other times, she said Caylee was with a nanny at theme parks or the beach.

    Casey Anthony was first arrested on July 16, 2008, and was charged the following day with giving false statements, neglect of a child, and obstruction of a criminal investigation. The judge denied bail, saying Casey had shown "woeful disregard for the welfare of her child".

    Investigation

    When Detective Yuri Melich, with the Orange County Sheriff's Department, began investigating Casey Anthony, he found discrepancies in what she had told law enforcement in her signed statement. When questioned, Casey said her child was with a nanny. The nanny, however, was never seen by Casey's parents or her friends, boyfriends, family, or acquaintances.

    On August 11, 12, and 13, 2008, tips of a suspicious object found in a forested area near the Anthony residence were called in to police by a utility worker. After another report on December 11, 2008, the remains were found in a plastic bag. On December 12, the remains were tentatively identified as Caylee's.

    On August 21, 2008, Casey Anthony was released after one month of incarceration. She was released from the Orange County jail after her $500,200 bond was posted by California bail bondsman Leonard Padilla.

    She was arrested again on August 29, 2008, on charges of forgery, fraudulent use of personal information, and petty theft for forging $700 worth of checks and using her friend's credit cards without permission. Leonard Padilla subsequently rescinded the $500,200 in bail due to a lack of cooperation from Casey Anthony.

    On December 15, WFTV reported that more bones were found in the wooded area near where the skull was discovered. On December 19, 2008, medical examiner Jan Garavaglia confirmed that the remains found were those of Caylee Anthony. The death was ruled a homicide and cause of death was listed as undetermined

    The uncut gem weighs around 2.27 kilograms (5 pounds) and has up to 15,000 carats. It was found 12 years ago in the Muzo mines in Boyaca, 75 kilometers (47 miles) north of Colombian capital Bogota.

    The precious stone kept in its original form and named after an indigenous god whose tears turned into emeralds, Fura is said to be valued at around 45 million dollars. It is owned by a firm called Coexminas.

    According to reports, only up to 15 people at a time are allowed to view Fura, with five guards looking on.

    Colombia produces most of the world's emeralds. More than half of the world's emeralds are mined in the South American country. In 2008, Colombia produced 2.7 Mcarats (540 kg) of the said stone.Source URL: https://celebrityvma2011.blogspot.com/search/label/world
