Bradley Manning Says He Wants to Live as a Woman - ABC News
 

 By declaring himself a feminine by birth and having feminine nature in him he committed another crime (sounds like that) by joining the US national forces.. It means that he joined forces as a boy and served for several years. Does it mean he was recognised as a gay? That's really astonishing!

An efficient and competent leader of the nation must have adequate power of taking decision. Decision making is a great art. A leader who lacks too much of decision making should get away from the key position he or she may be holding and let the other competent one / ones do this super excellent job.

It's the fact that young children of today need to be healthy and for that they should participate in pretty good exercise daily right from kinder-garden and school ages to groom up themselves fit moderately so that when they grown up as healthy adults they can have themselves adjusted in any professional filed like army, navy air-force, police or whatever nature of work that may be.

Jazz legend Marian McPartland dead at 95 | ENTERTAINMENT - geo.tv
 


ENTERTAINMENT:

WASHINGTON:Marian McPartland, a jazz pianist who was a glittering fixture in her musical genre over a career spanning six decades, has died at the age of 95, her record label said.

English-born McPartland also hosted a program on National Public Radio called "Piano Jazz," which at more than 30 years was the longest running cultural program on the popular US radio station, Concord Music Group said.

McPartland died of natural causes at her home in Long Island, New York on Tuesday night, NPR said.

She recorded over 50 albums and the honors she received included the George Foster Peabody Award, the National Music Council's American Eagle Award and a GRAMMY Trustee's Award for lifetime achievement.

On her radio program, she interviewed practically every major jazz musician of the post World War-II era, NPR said.

She told the station in 2005 that her interest in music started when she was a young girl, after hearing her mother play piano.

"From that moment on, I don't remember ever not playing piano, day and night, wherever I was," she said.

"At my aunt's house, at kindergarten -- wherever they had a piano, I played it. Of course, on the BBC they played all the hits from over here [in the US]. They played them, I heard them and I learned them," McPartland said.

Birds sense speed limits on roads: study | AMAZING & INTERESTING - geo.tv
 

AMAZING, INTERESTING & KNOWLEDGEABLE:

OTTAWA: Birds sense posted speed limits on roads and react to avoid collisions, according to a study out Wednesday.

Researchers said birds appear to have adapted to the local speed limits as a feature of their environment, such as the risk of predators.

Strict enforcement of speed limits could therefore significantly help with conservation, especially for endangered species in populated areas, Pierre Legagneux, a behavioral ecologist at the University of Quebec in Rimouski, told AFP.

"I realized that the birds were not reacting to the actual speed of my car, but to the average speed of cars on these roads, to the posted speed limits," the lead researcher said in a telephone interview.

The birds "associate road sections with speed limits as a way to assess collision risk," he added in the study published in the Royal Society journal Biology Letters.

"So strictly enforcing speed limits could reduce bird collisions."

Legagneuxsaid he was tracking ducks in western France for other research when hecame across a bird on a road that forced him to stop to avoid it, and caused him to wonder how birds think about cars and avoid collisions.

Legagneux began studying bird responses during the long drive home from his laboratory in a small white Peugeot 205, a route that took him through croplands, forests and small villages between November 2006 and November2007.

With colleague Simon Ducatez, he monitored and analyzed the
responses of 21 species of birds on roads with posted speed limits of
20, 50, 90 and 110 kilometers per hour (12 to 68 miles per hour).

The process involved noting when a bird took off to avoid his approaching car and how long it took the bird to reach its final position on the ground. (AFP)
