This is the independence message from the Opposition Leader Don Polye on the country’s 41st independence anniversary.

He said this day, 41 years ago, our founding fathers charted a new destiny for this nation.

No other country parallels this achievement.

“It’s time now to take stock of how we as a nation have come this far and plan for the next 41 years.

The Men’s Light (60kg) division fight took place this morning in Rio at 11.00am (12am PNG time) at the Riocentro 6.

It was a David and Goliath battle with the nineteen-year-old lad from Bougainvillean going up against the 26-year-old Russian with a high level of skill and experience.

But Katua showed heart against Abdurashidov with not much separating both boxers in all three rounds.

Victor Barrio, 29, a professional bullfighter, was killed when the bull's horn pierced his chest.

The fight, in the eastern town of Teruel, was being broadcast live on TV.

Also on Saturday, a 28-year-old man died after being gored by a bull during a bull run through the village of Pedreguer, near Valencia.

The singer's father Jeremy Jack Bieber brought in a live tiger from the Bowmanville Zoo for an engagement celebration in Toronto – and Justin documented petting the animal on Instagram.

In response, PETA has condemned the singer and his father for working with the Bowmanville Zoo's owner Michael Hackenberger – whose animal treatment is criticised by animal rights groups (via Entertainment Weekly).

The singer's hugely successful third album is currently poised at 1.97m sales, and looks certain to pass 2.5m sales by the end of 2015.

25 has also, unsurprisingly, recorded a fourth straight week at the top of the UK album chart.

Elvis Presley's posthumous album If I Can Dream is next at 2 in the album chart and Coldplay's A Head Full of Dreams falls to 3.

Justin Bieber is at 4 with Purpose and Jess Glynne's I Cry When I Laugh rounds out the top 5.

As is the case with most of the designer greats—Tom Ford, Christian Dior, Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, etc.—after seasons of spectacular shows and retail success, there comes a point when an accompanying beauty line is imminent. After all, whose cosmetics do you think big-league designers want to use at their runway shows?
