Dan Rafael of espn.com is reporting that former two-division world champion Tomasz Adamek will challenge either Wladimir or Vitali Klitschko in September in Adamek’s homeland of Poland.

“I am ecstatic. I can’t even put it into words,” Main Events CEO Kathy Duva said. “To work so hard with Tomasz with a goal in mind — moving him up to heavyweight, getting a heavyweight title fight. We got him there and we got a good deal.”

Said Bernd Boente, who manages the Klitschko brothers, “We made some changes, their side and our side. We now agree on everything. We have a go from both sides for a fight in September.”

The fight will take place at a new soccer stadium being built in either Warsaw or Wroclaw, Poland. Duva said there are four new stadiums being built in Poland for the 2012 European Soccer Championships and that two of the stadiums are bidding for the fight.

“There is this window of opportunity for this fight because of the stadiums being built in Poland,” Duva said. “It will be a huge event in Poland.”

If both Klitschkos were to lose, the deal with Adamek would be dead. If one loses, Adamek, a former light heavyweight titlist before winning the cruiserweight championship, would face the other brother under terms of the deal, Boente and Duva said.

If both Klitschkos win, the choice of Adamek’s opponent would be decided by the Klitschko side.

“Either one, their option,” Duva said. “We don’t care which one it is. They have to tell us something like 90 days before the fight which one it will be. Tomasz’s attitude is, ‘I want a heavyweight title fight. I don’t care which one of them I fight.'”

“Knock on wood, both brothers win their respective fights and then we will make a decision,” Boente said.

However, if they both win it is likely to be Wladimir against Adamek, both sides said.

Hair coloring tips at home

The New Nation (Dhaka, India) October 15, 2010 Bangladesh, Oct. 15 — Highlighting your own hair at home can be a great way to change your look and save on money. These days, it seems like everyone’s trying to save cash. More and more people are skipping that regular trip to the salon; some people are even cutting their hair at home. If you want to try this for yourself, I strongly recommend How to Cut Hair at Home – it’s a great guide and full of easy tips! brownhaircolornow.net brown hair color

If you just want to give your look a quick update, then highlighting your hair is the answer.

While it does take some know-how and attention to detail, if you decide ahead of time on the look you want to achieve, and get the right products, highlighting your hair at home can be fun and rewarding.

Here are some things you should keep in mind when getting ready for hair highlighting. Here’s how to highlight hair:

1. Take your hair length into consideration. If you have short to medium length hair, a home highlighting kit which includes a cap, hook and brush is probably your best choice. For longer hair, you’ll want to try the highlighting kits that come with specialized brushes that let you “paint” the highlights through your long hair.

2. Decide what hair color you want. Some hair coloring tips for adding highlights at home is that they look best when the results are more subtle than drastic.

If you have dark blonde or medium brown hair color, try using a highlighting kit in blonde tones that are only a few shades lighter than your natural color.

If you have dark brown or black hair, try dark blonde or caramel highlights that will enhance your natural hair color. Red highlights are another option.

3. Work on dry hair. It’s best to highlight your hair when it is dry and not freshly washed. The natural oils in your hair will help protect it from the chemicals that are added with hair highlights.

4. Protect yourself. Since you are going to be working with a chemical, you’ll want to be sure to wear an old shirt with long sleeves and an old towel pinned around your shoulders to protect your skin. Be sure to wear the gloves provided at all times and wash any areas of your skin that come in contact with the mixture immediately.

5. Choose your work space wisely. A bathroom or kitchen is the best place to highlight hair. Some hair coloring advice is to remove anything that might be ruined should the coloring mixture accidentally come in contact with it and wipe up spills as they happen.

6. Read the instructions carefully. Not all home highlighting kits are the same so even if you’ve highlighted at home before, take the time to read the directions entirely. Plus, the highlighting techniques you use may vary according to the instructions and the type of kit you have. highlighting hair 7. The cap method. There are several hair-coloring techniques and methods you should be aware of.

If you are using the cap and hook method for short and medium hair cuts, place the cap tightly on your head and secure it firmly. here brown hair color

Next, starting at the front of the head, use the hook provided to pull through thin sections of the hair. The general rule is to keep the pieces small and pull the hair through every second hole in the cap. If you have very short hair in the sides and back, skip pulling these sections through, as they will come out looking spotted.
