Victoria Beckham on the cover of Vogue UK. |
Wannabe her lover? Victoria Beckham recalled meeting husband David Beckham for the very first time in the October 2016 issue of British Vogue. The fashion designer, 42, penned a letter to her younger self, titled "What I Wish I'd Known," in the magazine. |
Victoria opened up about her love life in addition to insecurities and advice she would have given herself about fashion. "Yes, love at first sight does exist. It will happen to you in the Manchester United players’ lounge — although you will get a little drunk, so exact details are hazy," she wrote. |
"While the other football players stand at the bar drinking with their mates, you will see David standing aside with his family. (He’s not even in the first team at this stage — you are the famous one)," she continued of the former soccer pro. "And he has such a cute smile. You, too, are close to your family, and you w... |
The couple hit it off at the height of Victoria's Spice Girls fame in 1997. They later married in Ireland in 1999 and are now parents of sons Brooklyn, 17, Romeo, 14, and Cruz, 11, and 5-year-old daughter Harper. |

The Senate has announced several committees will be participating in a pilot project using Twitter to provide real-time updates on the progress of committee hearings. |
The Senate Committees on Higher Education (HRE), Consumer Protection (CPC), and Health (HTH) will be sending messages to let followers know that the hearing has convened, the bill or measure being discussed, and when the hearing adjourns. |
“The new social media is the perfect tool to “tweet” real-time updates during our hearings to keep the public informed,” said Sen. Jill Tokuda, chairwoman of the Committee on Higher Education. |
A new study has shown that the arm bones of Neolithic women were 11-16% stronger. |
Elite rowers train 21 hours-a-week, rowing an average of 120 km. |
PREHISTORIC WOMEN HAD stronger arms than modern-day rowers, likely due to the rigours of early farming which included tilling fields and grinding grain by hand. |
A study in the journal Science Advances is the first to compare the bones of women who lived 7,000 years ago in Central Europe to women of today — specifically championship rowers and British college students. |
Previous studies have compared female to male bones, but this approach likely underestimated the workload of women because men’s bones “respond to strain in a more visibly dramatic way than female bones,” said the report. |
Repeated exercise, or lack of it, can affect bone density, curvature and shape. |
Researchers found that the arm bones of Neolithic women — who lived from 7,000 to 7,400 years ago — were 11-16% stronger for their size than rowers from the elite Cambridge University Women’s Boat Club. |
These rowers are mostly in their early twenties and have been training for seven years. Each week they practice for 21 hours and row an average of 120 km. |
The primitive female farmers’ arms were almost 30% stronger than typical Cambridge students, said the report. |
“By interpreting women’s bones in a female-specific context we can start to see how intensive, variable and labourious their behaviors were, hinting at a hidden history of women’s work over thousands of years,” said lead author Alison Macintosh of Cambridge University. |
Unlike rowers, who perform repetitive motions, prehistoric women performed such a vast scope of tasks that researchers found it difficult to identify any one particular activity from analysing their bones. |
“Prior to the invention of the plough, subsistence farming involved manually planting, tilling and harvesting all crops,” said Macintosh. |
Women were also likely to have been fetching food and water for domestic livestock, processing milk and meat, and converting hides and wool into textiles. |
A major component of female work was also converting grain into flour, using two large stones called a saddle quern. |
“Our findings suggest that for thousands of years, the rigorous manual labour of women was a crucial driver of early farming economies,” said senior study author Jay Stock, a researcher at Cambridge University. |

Then there’s also the new camera system that now has 5megapixels (from 3mp), 5x digital zoom and a “backside illuminated sensor”. It allows for 720HD video recording at 30 fps, and brings tap to focus in video mode. |
Other than all these, there’s the new iOS4 (iPhone 4 OS) that will bring high resolution text and buttons to apps. |
Bassist Rozzano Zamorano died last week at 44. |
Rozzano Zamorano, a gifted bassist capable of brilliantly played jazz, funk, rock and soul, died at his Montrose home last week. He was 44. |
The Corpus Christi native was a longtime regular on Houston's music scene. He played in a variety of groups, including the funky, soulful Fondue Monks, for which he was best known. |
Zamorano helped found the band in the early '90s with his brother, drummer Ronnie Zamorano; guitarist Steve Olson; and Denver Courtney. |
Courtney was the band's singer, but Zamorano was its driving force. His bass playing did more than anchor the band's songs and keep time - it drew attention for its nimble and distinctive sense of melody. |
"He was the furnace of the band in a lot of ways," Olson says. "If you were playing something white hot, he was right there. If you pulled back and slowed it down, he was right there. He played with so much fire and love and drive." |
The band's success in Houston landed it opening slots for Jimmy Buffett, Little Feat and Eric Johnson. Other times rising bands were openers for the Monks. Olson recalls three teens called Los Lonely Boys opening for the group at the Velvet Elvis. |
Gigs outside Houston didn't necessarily go as well, but Olson says Zamorano kept the band going. |
"I remember driving back from Laredo in the middle of the night after a crappy gig at a pizza restaurant where we probably made $20," he says. "But Rozz was always there to keep the spirits going. Middle of the night in Nowhere, Texas, and he always had everybody's back." |
Zamorano told the Chronicle in 2005 that he "used to get real down" about the band's inability to break nationally. "But," he continued, "I've changed over the past couple of years. Everyone says 'I have to be in a band; I have to get a record deal; I have to be famous; I have to be on a TV show; I have to win a Grammy... |
Zamorano started playing at age 12 on a bass guitar his father gave him. His work on the instrument defied boundaries and genre. |
In addition to the Fondue Monks, Zamorano also led a jazz trio, was part of the Spanish rock band Yokomono and regularly recorded and performed unaccompanied on bass. |
Among his solo recordings is a remarkable album called "Eudamonia," which he released in 2001. It includes plenty of hard-driving progressive jazz that showcases a daring instrumentalist. But the title track, exhibiting Zamorano's range, is the standout, a composition of stirring restraint and beauty, performed elegant... |
The Fondue Monks celebrated both Zamorano brothers' birthdays two weeks ago with a show at Dan Electro's Guitar Bar. |
"I'm so thankful that we got to have that show there, a place we've played for so many years," Olson says. "We had a really good crowd that night. I mean, God, I've never had a marriage as long as I've been in this band. You go through ebbs and flows of support. You see the fan base grow and then fall back. We've playe... |
A memorial service for Zamorano will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday at BridgePoint Bible Church, 13277 Katy Freeway, with a reception to follow. A second gathering and celebration of Zamorano's life and music will take place at Dan Electro's, 1031 E. 24th. |
A benefit concert will be held on March 15 at Warehouse Live, 813 St. Emanuel. Details for that show will be announced later. |
In addition to his brother, Zamorano is survived by his parents, Roland and Esveidi Zamorano; sister-in-law Sherry Zamorano and niece Savannah. |

Poland's controversial reform law will force out about 40 percent of sitting judges at its highest court. |
Warsaw, Poland - The European Commission formally launched infringement proceedings against Poland one day ahead of the implementation of a controversial reform that would force out about 40 percent of sitting judges at its highest court. |
On Tuesday, Poland will lower the mandatory retirement age of Supreme Court judges from 70 to 65, prematurely ending the terms of 27 of the 72 judges, including the first president of the court. |
International organisations and activists have accused the ruling Law and Justice party (PiS) of using the reform as a way of controlling what for three decades has been an independent judiciary system. |
"The Commission is of the opinion that these measures undermine the principle of judicial independence, including the irremovability of judges, and thereby Poland fails to fulfil its obligations under Article 19(1) of the Treaty on European Union," the European Commission wrote in a statement on Monday. |
In December, the commission took the unprecedented step of invoking Article 7 in an attempt to determine whether Poland had breached the rule of law and last week government officials sat through a three-hour hearing in front of the General Affairs Council. |
"Given the lack of progress through the rule of law dialogue, and the imminent implementation of the new retirement regime for Supreme Court judges, the Commission decided to launch this infringement procedure as a matter of urgency," the statement continues. |
The Polish government will have one month to reply to the notice, it said. The matter could then end up in the European Court of Justice, the EU's highest court. |
"As a member of the European Union, the European tribunal is also our court, especially at a time when PiS is threatening our system, so the European tribunal is the only independent institution left that may assess the Supreme Court laws in an honest way," said Kamila Gasiuk-Pihowicz, a member of parliament for the op... |
The passage of the Supreme Court law on Tuesday is only the most recent in a string of attacks on the Polish judiciary since PiS took power in 2015. |
The nationalist government has already decimated the independence of the Constitutional Tribunal, fast-tracked appointments of party-affiliated judges and used state funds to run billboard smear campaigns against judges. |
Under the reform, many worry that the government will have control over an institution in the Supreme Court that has the power to validate future elections as well as reach into the past to overturn any decisions they do not agree with. |
"It isn't an accident that the chamber to which there is a need to appoint new judges under the reform is exactly the chamber that takes on the constitutionality of the Polish elections," Gasiuk-Pihowicz said. |
With the new law set to come into force, Poland has experienced growing countrywide protests over the past few days with thousands of people expected to gather in front of the Supreme Court in Warsaw on Monday evening. |
