DUBAI nike air max cierne , Feb. 14 (Xinhua) -- Zheng Saisai won her second qualifier match, over Czech Andrea Hlavackova, at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships while her fellow Chinese Wang Yafan and Wang Qiang both bowed out.


The 22-year-old Zheng won 6-1, 3-6, 6-0 to enter Monday's third qualifying group match.


Zheng said she started very well, "but made some mistakes in the second set."


"I played on a high level in the final set," added Zheng, who claimed to be in good shape and injury-free.


Valentine's day brought no luck to Zheng's compatriots.


Wang Yafan lost to world No. 82 Yaroslava Shvedova from Kazakhstan 6-0 nike air max biele damske , 6-3. Upset with the overwhelming loss, the 21-year-old asked to stay alone.


Wang Qiang, 24, had a tough fight with German Anna-Lena Friedsam before losing 7-6, 6-2, 7-6.


"We played almost on the same level and I have to admit that in the tie-break in the final set I had a bit more luck than Wang," said Friedsam.


Commenting on her shaky performance, the 22-year-old world No. 52 admitted she had a cold during the flight from Germany to Dubai two days ago.


"I hope to recover quickly to be fit for tomorrow's match nike air max biele ," she said.


Wang, a Tianjin native, said: "I played hard and gave it all. Unfortunately the match ended like it ended."


The tournament suffered a blow on Saturday when world No. 1 Serena Williams from the United States announced to withdraw because she had a cold.


World No. 2 Angelique Kerber, newly-crowned Australian Open champion, also pulled out of Dubai 2016, citing an injury in her right upper thigh."


SAN FRANCISCO, March 1 (Xinhua) -- Researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine have joined a multicenter clinical trial of a new version of a heart pump designed to allow remote monitoring.


To start with, the Stanford team led by Richard Ha nike air max 95 predaj , a clinical assistant professor of cardiovascular medicine, implanted the new pump, a left ventricular assist device, or LVAD, on Jan. 21 in a patient with heart failure.


Built by ReliantHeart Inc., the new LVAD, called the HeartAssist 5, has built-in wireless monitors designed to alert clinicians if blood-flow problems develop.


"This would be the first device that we could potentially monitor from a distance nike air max damske vypredaj ," said Ha, who is also a heart and lung transplant surgeon at Stanford Health Care and surgical director of the ventricular assist device program.


Since 1984, the LVAD has been used to restore blood flow when the left ventricle fails to pump enough blood to sustain life. Most often, the pumps serve as a bridge to keep patients alive while they wait for a donor heart.


Dipanjan Banerjee, medical director of the mechanical circulatory support program at Stanford, said the new device "has an ultrasound probe incorporated that directly measures blood flow generated by the device, as opposed to other LVADs, which estimate flow."


"More accurate measurements of flow may allow us to fine-tune the device speed to match the patient's needs nike air max damske ," said Banerjee.


The remote-monitoring capabilities could also help patients who live far away from cardiologists with LVAD expertise. Currently, patients are required to make frequent checkup visits in the six months following surgery.


It has some additional features that are expected to improve patient outcomes, including a smaller motor designed to help reduce blood clotting, and a sensor to measure blood-flow speed.


To evaluate the device's safety and efficacy, the randomized trial is being conducted at 15-20 sites, with a plan to involve 192 patients on the heart transplant list. Half will be implanted with the new version of the device, and the other half with the regular version.


Stanford said it plans to recruit 20 heart failure patients for the study, and 10 will receive the new device.


HO CHI MINH CITY nike air max 90 hyperfuse predaj , July 1 (Xinhua) -- About 2,000 motorbikes will participate in the 2015 Vietnam Motorbike Festival in Ho Chi Minh City in August, which will feature performances on Vietnam's largest flat track, local online newspaper Thanh Nien (Young People) News reported Wednesday.


The two-day event, which will kick off on Aug. 14, "will bring back races and motorbike skills that were widely known on the track in the 1990s," said Golden Times Communication Company, the event organizer.


Forty-eight flat trackers will show off their skills on the track nike air max 90 essential panske , which is nearly 1km long, with curves of up to 22m wide. Other activities include a competition for stunt and drift bikes, a display of modern and antique bikes, and a bike decoration contest of which the winning bike will be auctioned to help disadvantaged children in remote areas.


A competition will attract visitors with skillful performances from local and international stunt and drift bikers. Visitors can also find a motorbike or accessories at the Silk Road Flea Market, as well as various game shows with motorbike-related themes during the two-day festival.


The organizer hopes to attract 60,000 riders and enthusiasts to the event.


MELBOURNE, Oct. 14 (Xinhua) -- A Chinese-built replica of ancient Rome's Coliseum could be installed as a permanent tourist attraction in Melbourne, Australia.


Melbourne's city councilors are debating a plan to drop the already-built wooden structure nike air max 90 damske predaj , which measures 18 meters wide by 35 meters long, in the bayside suburb of Docklands.


The structure, already dubbed the "Docklands Coliseum," would be placed under a large glass dome and accommodate 350 people fewer than the 50,000 to 80,000 spectators estimated to have crammed into the original amphitheater in Rome 2000 years ago to witness gladiatorial contests as well as a restaurant.


Connie Paglianiti, the event organizer who funded the mass replica out of her own pocket, believes it could become a major tourist pull for the city.


"It's all here in Melbourne - waiting to come to .
