Stephanie Rice, Queensland Cricket, Brisbane Lions Helps 5-year-old Zachary Archer
0 comments Posted by wedos at 12:16 AM
Australian Olympian swimmer Stephanie Rice is leading from the front for a noble cause. She is leading to help 5-year-old Zachary Archer who becomes the first Australian to receive cutting-edge cord-blood therapy in a US trial.
Five-year-old schoolboy Zachary Archer, who had suffered a stroke aged four months will travel to North Carolina’s Duke University in September for the ground-breaking treatment.
If successful, the cord-blood therapy will reduce muscle spasticity in Zachary’s right side caused by cerebral palsy and ease epileptic seizures.
Rice has donated a signed Australian tracksuit as the Archer family muster items to be pitched at a fundraiser for Zachary. Organisations such as Queensland Cricket and the Brisbane Lions, along with a variety of local businesses, including Stefan Hair and Westfield, have contributed to the school disco fundraiser at StDympna’s Primary School in Aspley on September 3.
But the medical treatment is expensive, with the Archer family not expecting to see any change from $40,000.
To donate, phone Mr Archer on 0403698866.

New Zealand women's cricket captain Aimee Watkins has been rated among the world's 64 hottest female athletes alongside American skier Lindsay Vonn, Aussie swimmer Stephanie Rice and Czech tennis player Nicole Vaidisova.
27-year-old Watkins admitted the ratings by Yahoo!Xtra came as surprise, as she does not consider herself as one of the world's sexiest sportswomen.
"I didn't know anything about it," Watkins said. "I've seen it now. Mum gave me a call and she was pretty excited and told me to go on and have a look. Since then I've had a bit of stick but, oh well. It's all a bit foreign to me."
Sports editor of Yahoo!Xtra, Mike Kilpatrick, the main driving force behind the idea of finding the sexiest sportswoman, said he had been following Aimee Watkins' career since he was at university and she seemed like a natural choice for the top 64.
"We equally appreciate field talent as much as their looks," he said. "I consider Aimee one of the foremost talents in women's cricket.

Caution: Stephanie Rice, Manly Sea Eagles & Melbourne Storm Are Coming
0 comments Posted by wedos at 10:17 AM
Climbing a mountain the first time can be tough but as Stephanie Rice is finding out, it is even tougher the second time round when your motivation isn't what it was. After winning three gold medals, the golden girl of the Beijing Olympics let her hair down – partying as if it was an Olympic sport. She has just resumed training but is finding it's even harder when you switch from the hunter to the hunted.The Manly Sea Eagles are in the same boat. Last year's NRL rugby champions will be up against it to defend their title. No one has successfully defended their NRL rugby league title since Brisbane did it in 1992-93.
Once again the Melbourne Storm should be one of the teams to fear in the NRL league. They have sat on top of the NRL ladder for most of the last three years. NRL results just haven't gone their way when it mattered most. They will be looking to be the first team since the Parramatta one of 1981-84 to make four successive grand finals.
