Earth's Population to Drop by 80 Percent, Says Top UK Scientist
Some like it hot. According to environmentalist James Lovelock, we’ll get plenty of hot between now and the end of the century. “We are so far down the path toward the hottest we have been, since we were 55 million years ago,” Dr. Lovelock, who is also a leading atmospheric scientist, told StockInterview in a tape-recorded interview last week, “that as many of us look at it, it’s not going to make very much difference what anybody does.” In stronger commentary, which he wrote for England’s Independent newspaper, this past January, Lovelock warned, “The Earth is a

Why Character and Integrity Are So Important
It's been said that character is defined by what you do when you think no one is watching. What an illuminating concept that is.Most of us have a public face and a private face. There are parts of ourselves we don't want the world to see. Typically, we tend to hide the aspects that would not be viewed favorably by society. Greed, lust, jealousy, pettiness, fear and so on. We also tend to hide our weaknesses. No one needs to know that we can wolf down a gallon of ice cream in an hour, do they? ;-)I think most people are "good" at their core; decent,

With both Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro and Preakness winner Bernardini out of the race, the 138th Belmont Stakes, horse racing’s final leg of the Triple Crown, appears to be up for grabs.

This year’s best prospect for the Triple Crown, Barbaro, is recovering from a life threating injury sustained in the Preakness. In 131 years of horse racing history 31 horses have gone to the starting gate with the Triple Crown on the line, but only 11 horses have managed to accomplish what is arguably the most difficult event in all of sports.

As the race that can make or break a Triple Crown champion, the Belmont Stakes has established itself as the ultimate test of championship stamina in this country. At a mile and a half, its distance is a rarity in American dirt races although it has been shortened from its original mile and five eights length. First run in 1867, it’s the oldest of the Triple Crown races and the fourth oldest Stakes race in North America behind the Phoenix Stakes (now Keeneland’s Phoenix Breeder’s Cup) in 1831, The Queen’s Plate (Canada) in 1860 and the Travers (Saratoga) in 1864.

Open to 3 year colts and geldings carrying 126 pounds and fillies carrying 121 pounds it truly deserves its soubriquet “the Test of the Champion” as few 3 year olds have the strength or stamina to maintain a winning speed across such a distance. Starting with Silver Charm in 1997 we’ve seen 6 horses enter the Belmont with the Triple Crown within reach, only to see them fall victim to this demanding race. In some cases, like 2004’s Smarty Jones, we’ve seen them end their careers here.

Even without the Triple Crown at stake, the Belmont is deserving of attention for its challenge and tradition, it part summed up by its trophy, a solid silver bowl and cover made by Tiffany & Co. Topped by a silver figure of 1869 Belmont winner Fenian the bowl is supported by three horses - Herod, Eclipse and Matchem, representing the respective superior grandsons of the three Foundation Sires of Thoroughbreds: the Byerly Turk, the Darley Arabia

ake, the Belmont is deserving of attention for its challenge and tradition, it part summed up by its trophy, a solid silver bowl and cover made by Tiffany & Co. Topped by a silver figure of 1869 Belmont winner Fenian the bowl is supported by three horses - Herod, Eclipse and Matchem, representing the respective superior grandsons of the three Foundation Sires of Thoroughbreds: the Byerly Turk, the Darley Arabian and the Godolphin Barb. The trophy was presented by the Belmont family as a perpetual award for the Belmont Stakes in 1926 and the winning owner keeps the trophy for a year until the next Belmont Stakes winner is crowned.

In an era of athletes pumped up on steroids, rampant drug abuse and fixed games, horse racing has come to represent what is great and noble about athletic endeavor. For this year we can only applaud the Belmont winner, wish a speedy recovery and long life to Barbaro and wait for next year to cheer on a new Triple Crown contender.

The Triple Crown stands as the ultimate test of greatness and the Belmont Stakes is the final jewel in its crown.
