WASHINGTON， June 23 (Xinhua) -- The Houston Rockets selected China's Zhou Qi with the 43rd overall pick in the NBA draft on Thursday night.


Zhou， 20， led the Chinese Basketball Association in blocked shots for the second straight season， averaging 3.2 in 2015-16 for Xinjiang.


The 7-foot-1 forward also averaged 15.8 points and 9.8 rebounds while showing an improved offensive game， making nine of his 15 3-point attempts after going just 1 for 10 the previous season.


He also shot 58 percent during last summer's FIBA Asia Championships， helping China qualify for the Olympics.


LONDON Nike Huarache Green , Oct. 15 (Xinhua) -- The British unemployment rate dropped to 6.0 percent in the three months leading to August 2014, down from 6.1 percent in the three-month period ending in July, marking the lowest level since late 2008, data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) showed Wednesday.


The unemployment rate was slightly lower than the market estimation consensus of 6.1 percent. And London economists reckon that the British labor market is starting to improve.


PAY INCREASE


There were 1.97 million unemployed people in the three months leading up to August, down 154,000 from the previous quarter and 538,000 fewer than a year earlier Nike Huarache Grey , the figures showed.


The employment rate for those aged 16 to 64 for the period from June to August was 73.0 percent, 0.1 percentage point higher than that in the period from March to May 2014. There were 30.76 million people in employment aged 16 and over, 46,000 more than for March to May 2014 and 736,000 more than a year earlier, the government's statistics department reported.


Claims for unemployment benefits fell by 18,600 from the previous month to a total of 951 Nike Huarache Red ,900 in September. Compared with 2013 figures, it was down by 394,500, said ONS.


Meanwhile, in the same period, British employees' total pay was a mere 0.7 percent higher than last year. Pay excluding bonuses for employees was 0.9 percent higher, data also showed.


PRODUCTIVITY INCHES UP


The latest UK labor market figures indicate that the economy is finally starting to see a "pick-up" in productivity that is required for the recovery to maintain its present momentum Nike Huarache Black , reported Samuel Tombs, senior UK economist at Capital Economics, in an analysis piece.


The headline rate of annual growth in average weekly earnings, which edged up again from 0.6 percent to 0.7 percent in August, will see a more substantial acceleration soon and might even exceed inflation in a few months' time, said Tombs.


"A pick-up in real earnings next year should enable the economic recovery to broadly maintain its current pace despite the eurozone's stagnation and onset of rising interest rates," he added.


Martin Beck Nike Huarache White , senior economic adviser to the EY ITEM Club, commented in a note that "the long-awaited recovery in productivity may be finally under way. Employment rose by a modest 0.1 percent in the three months leading up to August, while the number of hours worked didn't change.


"Our estimate of GDP growth at 0.8 percent over the same period implies output per worker is picking up and, as pay rises are still very weak, unit labor costs should fall. Overall, a sustainable and low-inflation expansion should remain on track," he said.


Spanish tennis player Nike Huarache , Rafael Nadal was this Tuesday named the greatest Spanish sports star in history.


The winner of 13 Grand Slam's and the current number 1 in the ATP world ranking, received the award at the Gala for the 75th anniversary of the Spanish sports paper Diario Marca on Tuesday.


Nadal was voted for by readers of the paper ahead of five times Tour de France winner, Miguel Indurain and basketball star, Pau Gasol, who is without doubt the greatest Spanish basketball player of all time.


Nadal's feats had been recognized by the readers of Marca in 2007 when he won the Marca Legend award.


The tennis ace has enjoyed a fantastic 2013, coming back from a career threatening knee injury to win events such as the French Open, as well as claiming his 25th and 26th ATP Masters 1000 titles in Montreal and Cincinnati Nike Air Huarache Triple White , before then winning the US Open, beating Novak Djokovic in the final.


Djokovic would have his revenge by beating Nadal in the China Open, but the fact he reached the final of the event meant Nadal ends 2013 back at the top of the world rankings once again.


Apart from the special award for Nadal, the Marca gala also recognized the performances of many other Spanish sports stars, such as Formula 1 driver, Fernando Alonso and rally driver, Carlos Sainz Nike Air Huarache Triple Black , Gasol and the former captain on the Spanish women's national team, Amaya Valdemoro, cyclist Alberto Contador, Spanish national football team coach, Vicente dl Bosque and Real Madrid goalkeeper, Iker Casillas, among many others.


There was also time to remember some of the stars who no longer alive Nike Air Huarache Burgundy , such as golfer Severiano Ballasteros, footballers, Ricardo Zamora and Telmo Zarra and former basketball coach Antonio Diaz Miguel.
