So much for Queen Chelsy Davy. Great Britain's Prince Harry has ended his relationship with the Zimbabwe-born Davy. The prince reportedly ended the five-year coupling amicably with Davy, a post-graduate law student at Leeds University.
The break up takes place three weeks after the pair spent a romantic holiday together in the Indian Ocean nation of Mauritius. "They are remaining friends," said a source. "There have been all sorts of reasons given [for the split] but suffice it to say they felt that it had run its course." This news leaves Prince William and Kate Middleton as the sole, young Royal couple.
Breakthrough Nanotechnology Will Bring 100 Terabyte 3.5-inch Digital Data Storage Disks
Have you ever dream of 100 terabyte of data per 3.5-inch disk? New patented innovation nanotechnology from Michael E. Thomas, president of Colossal Storage Corporation, makes it real. Michael invented and patented the world's first and only concept for non-contact UV photon induced electric field poling of ferroelectric non-linear photonic bandgap crystals, which offers the possibility of controlling and manipulating light within a UV/Deep Blue frequency of 1 nm to 400 nm. It took him 14 years to find a practical conceptualization that would work to advance the storage industry; 3D Volume Holographic Optical Storage Nanotechnology, for which Michael holds the patents. He was invited to present this fascinating discovery to the National Science Foundation in February 2004.
