Bizzare


Florida Marlins rookie slugger Mike Stanton(notes) seems to hit home runs not only with prodigious power, but also impeccable aim.

In front of many friends and family at Dodger Stadium on Wednesday night, the hometown kid launched a towering three-run homer against right-hander Hiroki Kuroda(notes) that landed — generally — in the home team's bullpen.

More precisely, the ball landed inside a catcher's mitt that was resting atop an open equipment bag a few feet beyond the bullpen gate.

Watch closely

Dodgers outfielder Garret Anderson(notes) can be seen tracking the flight of the ball — he kind of wanders, actually — and then gives up after he realizes it's a lost cause. But Anderson, no doubt ever-observant over a long MLB career, saw the ball drop right into the mitt.

And did he give a double-take for the ages.

It might be the first time Anderson was recorded reacting to anything on a baseball field, actually. (He's kind of mild-mannered.) Anyway, Dodgers voice Vin Scully had the perfect words to go with Stanton's perfect placement.

Make a Wish


A 200 year-old tradition from mystical Bahia, Brazil, "Brazilets" are worn throughout Latin America and provide a spiritual significance for all who wear them. Wrap Brazilets around your wrist and tie three knots, making a wish with each knot. When your Brazilets naturally break down and fall off, it is believed that your three wishes will come true! Visit our blog for stories of inspiration...

Brazilets is committed to the environment and supports the Plant A Billion Trees project that sees a tree planted in Brazil's Atlantic rainforest. As its name suggests, over the next seven years this Nature Conservancy project aims to plant one billion trees! With Brazilets, you now have a colourful, attractive way to proclaim your wishes while also making a real contribution to future generations...

El Duo Peligroso de La Habana de Hoy




La inovacion y la comunicacion en la percusion Afro-Cubana de hoy en maestria!

Pienso que ningun percusionista que se dedica a la tumbadora puede escapar de reconocer el trabajo que estan haciendo ellos en este momento!

La rapidez y la technica de Giovanni Hidalgo son respectable, pero las raizes de todo esto viene de Cuba por la tragedia de la esclavitud. Se lo toca con instrumentos que tienen personalidad y el sonido hace la persona.
