A 16-seed will beat a number one seed in this year’s NCAA Tournament. Just telling you right now, it’s going to happen—this year. It's a 16-seed odyssey. Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, or Syracuse will lose in the first round of this NCAA Tournament. The shot heard around the world. A tiny nobody full of working class heroes will beat one of the vaunted this March, sending the world into insanity. Nothing makes sense. It’s impossible. Never gonna happen, so they say. We’ve seen stranger things happen in the past few years in sports. We have seen the fall of the Tiger Empire, the rise of the King Empire, and upsets in between. All empires must crumble at some point. Appalachian State beat Michigan in football. Le Moyne beat Syracuse in hoops. The USA hockey team, led by one-time Chris Drury in his days of Little League Baseball, almost shocked Canada at its own game. The New Orleans Saints won the Super Bowl.

Latest release from Statistics Canada: The visible minority population of the census metropolitan area (CMA) of Vancouver could more than double from 910,000 in 2006 to just over 2 million by 2031, according to new population projections. The main factor would be immigration, as well as fertility. During the same period, the rest of Vancouver’s population is expected to increase at a much more modest rate of roughly 12%. These projections on Vancouver’s diversity are based on a ‘reference scenario’, that is, the medium assumptions of how the population might evolve as determined by analyzing recent demographic trends.

Recent research carried out by Motally has stated that most people in the middle east browse the internet using their BlackBerry 8520 handset.
