Question
As a parent if your Children are competing against each other , where would your support lie, with the younger or the older child?
If you were the father/mother of Serena and Venus, how would you have supported both girls in the last Australian final?
How would you have balanced the support so that each child wouldn't feel you tilted to the other sibling(during the game of course)?

Rare turtle dies after being turned into a living wishing well
Omsin, a 25-year-old female green sea turtle passed away in Thailand on Tuesday, paying the price after years of eating coins thrown at her by humans seeking good luck.
Omsin was found seriously ill at a conservation center in Thailand's Chonburi province, with a stomach full of coins. She was sent to Chulalongkorn University for emergency surgery, after her shell had broken because of the sheer amount of coins inside her. After a seven-hour operation, her rescuers were left stunned when they found there were 915 coins inside her, weighing five kilograms.
Ironically, Omsin means “Piggy Bank” in Thai. Green sea turtles are an endangered species, with 100,000 killed for meat every year in the Indo-Australian archipelago, according to WWF.
From March 13 she was taken to Veterinary Medical Aquatic Animal Research Center in Bangkok and placed in intensive care. However, she finally succumbed to years of human neglect, dying of blood poisoning eight days later.

Romance never gets old: Students snap senior couples in 'wedding' shoot
They never expected such a romantic moment. After decades spent together, this couple thought there was nothing left in life that could surprise them. But they were happily proved wrong.
Last Friday, a group of college students in northwest China's Shaanxi Province offered to shoot wedding photos for this senior couple, and the scenes they captured soon created a buzz online.
Chang Benfu and his wife Zhao Xuefang are in their 80s. They have lived their lives in peace and quiet, surrounded by a big, happy family. Their only regret goes back to the beginning of their happiness, when, as Chang complained while at his grandson's wedding ceremony, “we had nothing at all and we just got married.”
Upon hearing that, student Li Huan and a group of his classmates came up with the idea of taking wedding photos for the couple, naming the project “Wedding photos for Grandpa and Grandma”.

The gentle morning sunlight saw the group of youngsters shoot a series of warm and moving pictures of the senior couple last Friday. The images took inspiration from the couple’s daily habits, only that they were dressed up in their wedding gladrags. “Grandpa was shy. We suggested that he kiss grandma on her forehead, but he wouldn’t do that.”
When they were young, weddings were simple affairs, with a certificate given to the couple the only evidence of their marriage. But their happiness has been solid and profound. They have built such a big home that 53 names appear under theirs on a very large family tree.
The wedding photography industry is big business in China today, and worth some 205 billion yuan (30 billion US dollars.) The entire wedding industry itself is worth 800 billion yuan (130 billion US dollars).
