About Butterfly Hikosuke Tamasu founded Tamasu Co., Ltd. in the small town of Yanai City, Japan in 1950. This was the beginning of a company career which is almost unique in table tennis. A renowned international for Japan, Tamasu fulfilled his dream of a lifetime when he made his hobby his profession. At that time, he could hardly imagine that he would make Butterfly the leading brand worldwide. Creativity, durability, and a profound technical knowledge meant success. 0ver and over again he looked for new possibilities in order to optimize techniques by innovative playing material. Tamasu realized that each player is different and has strengths and weaknesses. By offering individual playing material Tamasu wanted to help players right from the beginning to emphasize their individuality. Since 1983 Butterfly has its own training and research center in Tokyo. Highly qualified scientists co-operate with world class players and coaches for the development of rubber and blade technology. Butterfly's rubbers and blades are used by more than half of the participants at World and European Championships.

For the price, these are great quality, very lightweight, Okay spin, and pretty good control. Weather doesn't affect them too bad but to they get dinged up pretty easy when dropped. Overall pretty good :)

I bought two of these a while ago and they've held up pretty well. Yes, they're 1.5 mm sponges, but it's amazing what you can do with these well crafted paddles. Solid feel and hasn't come apart with more than 5 months of use. I had some very expensive 2.0mm sponge paddles that fell to pieces within a few months. Butterfly paddles are quality and this comes at an excellent price.

Nothing to write home about, but fun for household and non-competitive use. I wouldn't enter a tournament with it though. If you go into the purchase with that expectation, you'll be happy. The handle is quite comfortable and worth the 10 or so dollars over the bargain basement models.

This is a great starter bat for recreational TT/ Ping Pong. Good design of the handle allows proper grip and improve your play. Definitely recommended for the serious amateurs over the flat no-padding paddles that sell cheaply.
Butterfly is the best there is!

I started playing a year ago and I've been playing with a Stiga Ultimate which has a 2.2 mm sponge. I wanted to work more on technique because I had been relying on spin too much. With the 2.2 mm sponge I was sending the ball long when I started to try looping so I figured I'd try the Naifu with the 1.5 mm sponge. It is MUCH easier to control the ball. I can give nice forehand or backhand looping stroke and keep the ball on the table. It's also easier to return a smash with the Naifu because ... Read More

85,000-ton cruise ship, which is scheduled to enter service in 2008, will be
named Queen Victoria. Based in Southampton, England, the Cunard Queen Victoria will be
the second largest Cunard Queen ever built. Together with the current flagship,

Cunard fleet will include three Queens for the first time – truly the most
famous ocean liners in the world.

Queen Victoria will enter service in the company’s 165th anniversary and will

Northern Europe, the Caribbean, and South America. The 1,968-passenger vessel
will feature a covered wraparound promenade deck, a forward-facing observation
lounge, a large Lido pool with a retractable magrodome, and 10 of the12
passenger decks will be served by exterior glass-walled lifts. Like QE2 and QM2,

panoramic views.

The on-board menus, entertainment and lecture program will be geared to British
tastes and the currency will be sterling. Queen Victoria will fly the red
ensign; she will have the name of her home port, Southampton, on her stern, and
she will have a British Captain and Officers.
In design terms the cruise Cunard Queen Victoria will have an undeniably British feel with two British design
teams being responsible for the interior of the Cunard Queen Victoria.
Queen Victoria is being built at Italy’s Fincantieri shipyard in Marghera, near
Venice, with her keel laid on July 12, 2003. One of the most technically
advanced shipbuilders in the world, Fincantieri has built more than 7,000
vessels, including many for Cunard’s parent Carnival Corporation. Originally
ordered as the fifth in a series of five 'Vista' class ships for sister company
Holland America, the contact was signed over to Cunard before the keel was laid
and Holland America then ordered a further ship for delivery in 2006.

lead ship in the series, Zuiderdam, entered service in December 2002.
No cruise schedules have yet been
announced. Her float out is scheduled for May 2007, prior to
her delivery in March 2008.She is scheduled to enter service in April 2008. |
