Two years ago Cassie Ventura posed nude for Allure magazine. And now nude photos of her have been leaked last week for all to see. Apparently some smart ass hacked her computer and leaked the Cassie's photos. We have had our share of scandals in the past: from Vanessa Hudgens to Vanessa Minnillo. Meanwhile, Cassie has acknowledged that these photos are of her both in her twitter account and her official fan website:

From Cassie's Twitter about her leaked naked photos:

The recent personal pictures that have been leaked on the internet of me were hacked and stolen out of my computer. These photos were obviously never intended for the world to see and it’s sad that people would really take time to steal and post them, it’s just evil. At the end of the day breasts are breasts, mine weren’t the first you’ve seen and they won’t be the last… people need to grow up, let’s move on. Thank you.
Cassie

And from her Twitter:

It seems that someone has hacked into my computer… that’s really foul and evil. Now stop acting like you haven’t seen a titty before.

Cassie had a hit song a few years called "Me & U". She released a single a few weeks ago but it didn't do too well in the R&B charts. Some conspiracy theorists are wondering if this "leak" was a planned publicity move.

I'm not sure if this was a mistake by the programmers by not automatically deleting previous backups but I've amassed about 10 Gigabytes for obsolete - old Lightroom catalog backups. Perhaps this is a use for having multiple backups at hand - but since I have a strong backup routine with all my other files, I think I can risk just having the last backup or simply to dump the whole backup catalog process.

So where do you find and delete these old Adobe Lightroom catalog files? In Windows its in your documents under the Photos folder then /Lightroom/Backups... So if you find yourself short of disk space (these backup catalog files/folders take up about 500 to 1 Gigabyte each!!!) you can find these folders and just delete them. While you're thinking about cleaning up your catalog, it may be a good idea to also "Optimise your catalog" to make it run faster (And defrag your computer while you're at it).

Who are the Top Ten Pound For Pound Best Boxers of All Time? Of course there is the International Boxing Hall of Fame where all the great boxers of all time have been inducted. We previously looked at the boxing term "pound for pound" and also Current Top 50 Boxers Pound For Pound. Again these lists are purely subjective.

2. Muhammad Ali - "Louisville Lip" 56 wins, 5 losses, 37 KO

We previously had a look at what the term "pound for pound" meant. This time we look at the current top fifty (50) Pound for Pound Boxers in this point in time. Remember this list is PURELY SUBJECTIVE. Perhaps a mathematical equation can be used to find out who is the best boxer pound for pound. ([Number of Wins - Number of Losses - (0.5 * Number of Draws)]/[Weight (Pounds)]) Or maybe something more complicated to add in other variables such as KO's, TKO's, length of match, number of punches thrown and landed, etc...

Current Top Fifty (50) Boxers Pound For Pound

1. Floyd Mayweather Jr. (147)
2. Manny Pacquiao (140)
3. Joe Calzaghe (175)
4. Juan Manuel Marquez (135)
5. Israel Vazquez (122)
6. Bernard Hopkins (175)
7. Shane Mosley (147)
8. Paul Williams (154)
9. Rafael Marquez (122)

"Pound for pound (the best boxer)" in boxing means to subjectively rank all the boxers disregarding weight class. So taking the boxer's skill/style/etc except their weight class who would be the best? "Pound for pound" is also used in mixed martial arts and other combat sports to describe a fighter's value in relation to fighters of different weight classes. (By the way - in the photo are Pacquaio and Mayweather Jr.)

The origin of the "pound for pound" terminology was coined to describe world Welterweight and Middleweight champion Sugar Ray Robinson. Robinson is one of the most accomplished fighters of all time, but his supporters realized that, while he could beat anyone in his own class, as a Middleweight he would not be able to beat a top Heavyweight. Hence, Robinson was called the pound-for-pound best without being expected to beat much larger fighters, under the belief that he as a Middleweight was still a better quality fighter than any fighter fighting at heavier or lighter weights than him.
