A British man Chris Grimmer and his three friends have never dreamed that a summer break in Spain would ensure them a place in the books of fishing 
records. Catfish caught by the 35-year-old Chris is the biggest ever hooked 
albino catfish. It was 2.4 meters long and weighs 88 kilograms, just 1 kilogram 
heavier than the previous record holder which was in September 2010. caught 
by blind Shelia Penfold from London.

How 15-minute doses of physical activity can boost your life



Whenever you feel the urge to eat something because of cravings and boredom, get busy by dancing inside your room, or completing your household chores

It is still better to exercise even for 15 minutes a day than to do nothing at all. It is also better to do a consistent 15-minute workout that you can do for the rest of your life, than injure or stress yourself with unrealistic long-duration, high-intensity workouts, only to find yourself quitting exercise in the end.

There have been numerous studies published regarding the physical and mental benefits one can get from consistent short-duration physical activities. These studies are especially important in attracting sedentary or inactive people who usually get overwhelmed with 30 minutes a day of exercise just to get health and fitness benefits.

New Games for 2012



Aion
In 2012, Aion will be closing in on its third birthday, so why is it that I think it’ll be rounding out the top ten? I’m going to go out on a limb right now and say that it really could be any number of games from the crop here in 2009 that could fill this spot, but in my opinion, Aion has the best chance.
Aion is a game designed to appeal to number of different player types: PvP, RvR, PvE, RP and others. Then, you’ve got the fact that NCsoft North America needs Aion to be a success on this side of the world. This first major launch since the cancellation of the company’s previous flagship title, Tabula Rasa, has a lot riding on its shoulders and NCsoft didn’t gain a reputation as one of the premiere publishers on this side of the world by letting opportunities pass them by in a pinch.
The real reason that I put Aion on the top of the heap though is probably the fact that it has the advantage of being a rare imported game that was designed with our market in mind. So often, Western games are marred by buggy launches that take at least a few patches to work out, losing at least some players in the process. Then, after some time has gone by we see news that the same game has launched in an Eastern market or two, more polished and more completed than it was for us. With Aion, the roles are reversed and lessons can be learned on players from another market. Maybe that’s just the shot in the arm this game needs to gain the kind of popularity that will see it on the Top 10 charts in 2012.

The Underground River!

On the romantic tropical island of Palawan in the far western reaches of the Philippines there is a river that is navigable for more than five miles… underground.
Azure waters, crystal clear and inviting, mark the entrance to the world’s second longest subterranean watercourse. An few hours away from the city of Puerto Princesa and a short boat ride from the Sheridan Resort, Sabang, yet a step back in time to an age when the earth was still young.




Limestone karst mountains surround the mouth of the river cave as birds swoop and flutter above your boat. There are 252 species of birds known to occur on Palawan, one hundred and sixty five species of birds have been recorded in the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park including Blue-naped Parrots, Hill Mynas, Palawan Hornbills and the majestic White Breasted Sea Eagle.
