9.72 seconds, this is what Usain Bolt from Jamaica took to complete his 100m sprint in Reebok Grand Prix, New York. Usain broke the world record. There previous record was 9.74 seconds created by Asafa Powell, another sprinter from Jamaica.
Seems like Usain bolt’s form is very good at the moment. The only question is if he can extend his good form till Beijing Olympic, which is in 2 months time. No matter waht, he is definitely one of the strong contenders for Beijing Olympic 100m sprint gold medal.

Forbes recently had compiled a list of Hottest Young Royals over the world. Prince William, the son of Prince Charles and Princess Diana, is on top of the list.
Quoted from Forbes:
To compile the ranking, Forbes counted international Web and media presence as well as family wealth. Only unmarried royals under the age of 35 were considered.
The 20 royals on Forbes’ Hottest Young Royals list represent nearly $60 billion in wealth and 15 royal lineages. While a few own or operate their own businesses, the majority are students or involved in serving their countries through, for example, diplomacy, athletic competition or military service–proving there’s more to hotness than wealth, power and good looks, though none of those things hurt.

It was said that there was a report from Korea Daily, saying that researchers ans historians from Sungkyunkwan Univeristy, after much researches, have come to conclusion that Sakyamuni was actually from Korean race.
The historians claimed that, during B.C. 700, Koreans living at the southern part of Korea peninsular started ventured across the ocean. Some of them reached Japan and became forming part of current Japan cultures. At around B.C. 650, Koreans reached Straits of Malacca. Then these Koreans passed through Straits of Malacca and reached the area of current Bangladesh.
Sakyamuni was from a royal family in northern India, did not belong to Aryan. Based on the researches into Sakyamuni’s daily habits, activities, they found that it was very “east-asian” style. Also, they found that many of the words from Buddhist scriptures look like a “transfrom” of Korean words.
A reporter from Korea Daily is doing follow-up with this report. A book on this topic is expected to be released end of this year.
I could not find any reliable source for this report. However, if you do a search on “成均馆大学”, “釋迦牟尼” in Google, you will see the many Chinese are talking about this.
