Kim Kardashian Steps Out with Her New Man!
Looks like Kim Kardashian has wasted no time nabbing herself a new man after calling it quits with model (and Halle Berry ex) Gabriel Aubry. The reality star was spotted out with NBA player Kris Humphries in NYC last night!
On the left: Kris Humphries (Getty) They partied together at Provocateur lounge in the Big Apple after Kim made an appearance at the Z100 Jingle Ball at Madison Square Garden, where she canoodled with Justin Bieber backstage! Then it was off for some adult fun at the swanky NYC hotspot, where Kim K and Mr. Humphries apparently partied until 2am!
They tried hard not to be photographed together, but were unable to avoid the cameras as they were stepping foot into Kim's hotel after the evening's festivities drew to a close.
After splitting with on-again, off-again beau Reggie Bush earlier this year, Kim's dating a handful of gentleman, including NFL star Miles Austin. Looks like she's back on the pro athlete circuit after dating the model with Humphries, a 25-year-old player for the New Jersey Nets. However, Kim says she's not specifically looking for athletes, "I'd rather date someone with a good heart," she told Us magazine.

Compact Shadow Of The X10
The recently concluded 2010 Mobile World Congress had Sony Ericsson showcasing its latest Android smartphones starting with the miniaturized XPERIA X10 handsets. One of them, the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini Pro, sports a QWERTY slider form factor that should live up to its "pro" designation albeit with a diminished feature seat we've known from the delayed X10.
Miniature Features
Nothing best exemplifies what a Mini is than the watered-down features of its Android derivatives.
Your 1 GHz Qualcomm QSD8250 Snapdragon used in the X10 is now just 600 MHz Qualcomm MSM7227 running the same Android Cupcake version with the UX user interface.
Sony could have done its markets a favour by using the later Android 2.0/2.1 Éclair.
Imaging resolution gets axed from a defining 8 megapixel camera to a plebeian 5 megapixel snapper with no image stabilization and touchfocus features on the X10. You still get autofocus, LED flash, geo tagging and video light. Its press release it is silent on the video recording details but it can't possibly be of the same WVGA resolution as that in the X10.
That's because you only get a QVGA 2.55-inch display, down from the X10's glorious 4-inch Wide-VGA display. At least you now get 16 million colors against the 64k colors on the X10, a gravity accelerometer and scratch resistant surface.
Phone memory almost disappears from a generous 1GB to just 128 MB in the Mini Pro but you still have microSD expandability of up to 16 GB.
Apart from those grossly diminished X10 features, the Mini Pro shares many other hardware and software goodies with the X10.
It's the same quad band GSM/GPRS/EDGE on the 2G network and a 3G with dual band UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA. Data connectivity gets WiFi 82.11 b/g, Bluetooth 2.1 with EDR and A2DP and microUSB 2,0. There's a built-in A-GPS, stereo FM receiver with RDS, Bluetooth A2DP and 3.5mm headphone jack for either wireless or wired headset listening.
On the software front, the Mini Pro has Timescape that aggregates all your communications and SNS updates on Facebook and Twitter in one location as well as Mediascape that draws together all your handset media content and those from the PlayNow music store and YouTube.
Conclusion
Sony Ericsson may have started a product strategy trend to affix the "pro" to create models with QWERTY sliders. The Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini Pro is just the first with the Vivaz Pro as second. Admittedly, its unabashed pretense to being a pro with a simple "pro" appended to the X10 Mini name is more of a caricature with a next to useless QWERTY keyboard.
Good of Sony to retain the virtual on screen QWERTY using a stylus for a faster keying of data. But admittedly, even a diminished X10 feature set makes the Minis a capable smartphone by any definition. It should attract a younger crowd who prefer smaller and more pocket-friendly.

Noah's Ark Found in Turkey?

A TEAM of evangelical Christian explorers claim they've found the remains of Noah's ark beneath snow and volcanic debris on Turkey's Mount Ararat.
But some archaeologists and historians are taking the latest claim that Noah's ark has been found about as seriously as they have past ones—which is to say not very.
"I don't know of any expedition that ever went looking for the ark and didn't find it," said Paul Zimansky, an archaeologist specializing in the Middle East at Stony Brook University in New York State.
Turkish and Chinese explorers from a group called Noah's Ark Ministries International made the latest discovery claim Monday in Hong Kong, where the group is based.
"It's not 100 percent that it is Noah's ark, but we think it is 99.9 percent that this is it," Yeung Wing-cheung, a filmmaker accompanying the explorers, told The Daily Mail.
Noah's Ark Location in Turkey a Secret
The team claims to have found in 2007 and 2008 seven large wooden compartments buried at 13,000 feet (4,000 meters) above sea level, near the peak of Mount Ararat. They returned to the site with a film crew in October 2009.
Many Christians believe the mountain in Turkey is the final resting place of Noah's ark, which the Bible says protected Noah, his family, and pairs of every animal species on Earth during a divine deluge that wiped out most of humanity.
"The structure is partitioned into different spaces," said Noah's Ark Ministries International team member Man-fai Yuen in a statement. "We believe that the wooden structure we entered is the same structure recorded in historical accounts. ... "
The team says radiocarbon-dated wood taken from the discovery site—whose location they're keeping secret for now—shows the purported ark is about 4,800 years old, which coincides roughly with the time of Noah's flood implied by the Bible.

Dinosaur Feathers Changed With Age 
Newfound fossils of a feathered dinosaur suggest that the extinct reptiles might have possessed a diversity in plumage types that puts modern birds to shame.
Farmers in northeastern China have unearthed two roughly 125-million-year-old specimens of the dinosaur Similicaudipteryx, a member of the group called the oviraptorosaurs, which are believed to be ancestors of birds.
The species, most likely a plant-eater, was first described in 2008. It had robust jaws similar to those of other oviraptorosaurs, but with two unusually large buck teeth.
The two new fossils belong to a pigeon-size juvenile dinosaur thought to be just a year or two old and a three- to four-year-old duck-size youth.
The younger animal's fossil included short ribbonlike feathers. On its tail, each feather was just 1.6 inches (4 centimeters) long, while on its arms a typical feather was less than 0.8 inch (2 centimeters) long.
By contrast, the older dinosaur sported long quills, with each tail feather measuring 13.7 inches (35 centimeters) long and a typical arm feather measuring roughly 9.8 inches (25 centimeters) long.
The findings suggest feathered dinosaurs might have been undergone a flurry of changes as they matured—unlike anything seen in modern birds, said study co-author Xing Xu of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing.
Dinosaur's Ribbonlike Feathers "Really Bizarre"
Modern birds continuously replace old feathers with new ones. But birds completely change the types of feathers in their coats just once their entire lives: when they switch from warm down to their adult plumage.
Very young dinosaurs are thought to have been covered in down, so the new find suggests that dinosuars went through at least three stages of feather types: full down, to a mix of down and "ribbons," to down and quills.
The long quills on the older Similicaudipteryx are much like those seen on modern birds, and they might have served as ornaments or to help the dinosaur balance itself as it ran.
The younger dinosaur's ribbonlike feathers are superficially similar to some specialized plumes seen today, for example, on birds of paradise. But the ancient feathers are actually a type that has been lost in the course of evolution, and the role they played on the younger juvenile remains unknown.
These extinct feathers would not have been useful for warmth, for example, given how flat they are, Xu said.
While the "ribbons" might have served as ornaments, "in modern animals, structures used for display generally develop relatively late, when the animal is mature, for attracting mates," he added. "Their appearance here is at the wrong stage—it's really bizarre."
Similicaudipteryx's odd changes suggest that early birds and feathered dinosaurs experimented with a diversity of feather types and a variety of ways to use them, "which only later stabilized to the more conservative system we see now with modern birds," Xu said.
"There were very, very strange structures in the history of feathers."

World's shortest man dies at 21 
BEIJING, March 16 -- He Pingping, the world's shortest man, has died in Rome aged 21. He who was just 74.6cm tall was born in 1988 in Wulanchabu, China, with a form of primordial dwarfism, and was officially recognized as the world's shortest man in 2008.
He was admitted to hospital two weeks ago after suffering a chest complaint and died on Saturday. However, his death has only just been announced. He Pingping was in the Italian capital to take part in the filming of a television program called The Record Show.
Guinness World Records editor-in-chief Craig Glenday, who measured Pingping in Inner Mongolia to confirm his status as the world's smallest man, paid tribute to him.
"From the moment I laid on eyes on him I knew he was someone special - he had such a cheeky smile and mischievous personality, you couldn't help but be charmed by him. He brightened up the lives of everyone he met, and was an inspiration to anyone considered different or unusual," Glenday said.(Agencies/ Rob Welham/Xinhuanet))
Subhanallah!
"It is He who let the two seas (side); that is fresh and fresh again the other salt and bitter, and He made between them and the boundary walls that block." (Q.S Al-Furqan: 53)
IF you are someone who likes watching the TV program `Discovery ' must know Mr.Jacques Yves Costeau, he was an expert diving oceanografer and leading candidate from France. The man, white-haired old man who was throughout his life diving into the ocean floor around the world and make a documentary about the natural beauty of the sea to watch the whole world.
One day while exploring the underwater world, she suddenly found several groups of freshwater springs, a very delicious fresh taste that is not mixed / not blend with the salty sea water around him, as if a wall or membrane which limits both.
Strange phenomenon intriguing Mr. Costeau and encouraged him to seek the cause of the separation of fresh water from salt water in the middle of the ocean. He began to think, lest it was only a fantasy when halusination or diving. Any time passed after the incident, but he never got a satisfactory answer about the strange phenomenon.
Until one day he met a Muslim professor, then he was told it was an odd phenomenon. Professor was reminded of verses of the Quran about the meeting of two oceans (the letter-Rahman Ar verses 19-20) is often identified with the Suez Canal. The verse reads "Marajal Bahraini yaltaqiyaan, yabghiyaan la bainahumaa barzakhun ..." It means: "He let the two seas meet, among them is a barrier that can not be penetrated." Then read surah Al Furqan verse 53 above.
In addition, in some book of interpretation, the verse about the meeting of two seas but no water mixture is defined as the location of the river mouth, where a meeting between fresh water from rivers and saltwater from the sea. But that interpretation does not explain the following verse from the letter Ar-Rahman verse 22 which reads "minhuma Lu'lu Yakhruju` u wal marjaan (Out of the two Pearls and Coral. " And at the mouth of the river is not found pearls).
Mr.Costeau fascinated hear the verses of the Qur'an that, beyond admiration to see the magic scenery ever seen in the deep ocean. The Qur'an is impossible compiled by Muhammad, who lived in the seventh century, an era when there was no sophisticated diving equipment to reach remote locations in the depths of distant oceans. It's really a miracle, the news of the strange phenomenon of the past 14 centuries finally proved the 20th century. Mr. Costeau would say that the Qur'an is true scripture containing the word of God, the whole implies absolute right. He immediately embraced Islam.
Allahu Akbar ...! Mr. Costeau get guidance through the phenomenon of marine technology. Truthful Almighty Allah. Shadaqallahu Al `Azhim.Rasulullah s.a.w. He said: "Verily the human heart as it will rust the iron rusted by water." If one asks, "Is how to make this carefully clean again?" Messenger s.a.w. He said, "Always remember the dead and read the Qur’an."
If you are a diver, then you should visit the cenote Angelita, Mexico. There is a cave. If you dive to depths of 30 meters, the water is fresh water (fresh), but if you dive to depths of more than 60 meters, the water turns salty water, and then you can see a "river" at the bottom, complete with trees and foliage leaves. 
Some reviewers said the river was not unusual, it is a layer of hydrogen sulfide, looks like a river ... amazing is not it? Look at how great the Almighty God's creation .***
