The greatest thing africa has going for them is that they so much potential....and that is what the foreigners recognize...and since so many businesses are at their max in their own countries they are beginning to look else where....africa has been through a lot and i no that zimbabwe has personally but it is showing so many signs of improvement.....hopefully we will c them continue to grow and become the next power house...
Africa has been doing quite well lately. Although there are still blemishes facing the continent such as the LRA in Uganda. As a whole Africa has been growing their middle class economically in pretty significant strides. Which is a great deal as a lot of Africans have been either on the extreme upper or extreme lower side of the economic scale. Also many African countries have become more democratic and the recent demise of the Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi is great news for the spread of democracy through out the nations. Hopefully Africa will continue to improve and maybe one day become a very powerful unity.
While Africa is on the rise, they still have a long, long way to reach the strength of Asia. Asia has two countries that help lead the way in China and Japan. There is no clear leader in the Africa continent. The African continent has little to offer as far as commodities are concerned. They need to find a way to bolster their economies through outside trade. Africa will always be far behind other countries for a long while.
Will Africa will be a powerful industrial sector just like China is right now in 50 years from now?
I could not be happier to read this article. Africa has been a country that has always been the butt of jokes by richer countries. Where it sill has a very long way to go it is on the right track to becoming a powerhouse. Maybe then they will be able to gain control and peace over its nations.
Although it probably won't happen for a couple of years, Africa is definitely on its way to becoming the next world power. They are certainly not as strong as Asia with its economy, but there are several countries in Africa that are doing well and are headed in the right direction. Like davidd91 said, I believe this strength is coming from the hard working middle class because this is the fastest growing class in Africa. I believe Africa in total is definitely headed in a positive direction and can definitely catch up to be a world power within the next couple of years.
- This goes back to one of the key point of my previous responses, that is: NGOs are given too much credit (bad or good) for what they actually have the power to do. That's all. I was not commenting on their positive or negative impact, I was just making a point on the fact that NGOs cannot be considered responsible for many of the bad things reportedly happening in Africa, among which the person I directed the comment to included corruption, dependency, lack of empowerment, increased poverty and, listen carefully, no less than war itself! Some may feel proud that many think so highly about our work, but we really don't matter that much, and we often just matter slightly for the small communities we serve, sometimes, I'm frank to admit, rather ineffectively.
- Your idea that western interests ended in Africa at the end of the Cold War is absolutely out of history. First of all, western aid funding significantly increased in the decade after the end of the Cold War, and in fact decreased (although only slightly) in recent years (when according to you we all became suddenly interested again in Africa because of China presence in the continent). Aid remained and increased because western interests not only have always been there, but they just got suddenly simplified and in foreign policy terms they became purely economic interests, spoiled of the ideological and political cover-up of the Cold War era. This is pretty well demonstrated not only by the increase in aid, by also the counter-balancing massive wars that involved Angola, DRC, western Africa, or the tensions in Zimbabwe, Sudan, just to name a few. Read something about the scandals of the French ELF oil company, or De Beers, or arms dealings, you have plenty of examples. In fact, what you have not understood is that I was not condoning western interests, I was just pointing out that western interests can only exist in their actual form in Africa because African leaders and elites are just as happy to be their accomplices for fast gain. Accusing NGOs of bringing war is simply idiotic.
- About China, seriously, I think their way of investing is a great deal, but just for them, and I think they are not a model that is either sustainable of ethically sound. If you don't mind, while there may be a general unethical range of consequences of western foreign policies, I hope you can believe that there are people who are trying to get along in as an ethical way of life as they can. I try to be among them. I'm happy for you to think otherwise, but you can try to do so more politely without accusing me or other to be jobless insensitive exploiters, warmongers and the source of all problems in Africa.
'Desert Flower' portrays a SOMALI woman's life not African women's life. How many times do we have to go on about generalizations?! It is just so annoying!!
I'm glad to see other countries invest in Africa and to see the continent begin to grow. At times a great divide (whether it be economic, ideals, education, or something else) can be seen between African countries, cities and even tribes. This divide can lead to envy, corruption, autocracy and an overall moral injustice in some people. So, that is why I see Africa's growth as a chance to alleviate some of these problems. It's true that it will not happen overnight, but I believe that there is a real reason for optimism.
The figures are heartening, but the logic is not as straight-forward or historical as put-Africa may learn from East Asia and the older Europe, especially how not to do things.
The starting point is "What we don't have and we can't make, we don't need" – or at least we could borrow from our immediate neighbor.
Africans are growing increasingly tired of aid and being told what to do by experts who, as is becoming clearer, often know less than the Africans themselves, but hold the purse strings, nevertheless.
Lumped together is a popular developing distaste for dictatorship, corruption and kleptocracy as well as an appreciation of expendability for non-performance, a kind of accountability if you will.
Kenyan members of parliament escaped a recall clause by the skin of their teeth when interested parties had it deleted before the new constitution was promulgated.
The popular attitude is to bite small and chew finely. The clause will be retabled sooner than later.
In North Africa, the recall was less polite and, for some, permanent.
A combination of demographics and evident hunger for education will inevitably lead to growth, as seen in communications and eventually, manufacture.
In turn, this raw material value addition would stabilize commodity prices to the point where, even without tariffs and legislation, exporting ore becomes gauche.
Currently there is a 933 m people African market of which of perhaps only 20 % have effective economic demand.
This compares poorly to Europe's 723 m, at 100 % demand.
In 2050, the picture changes dramatically with 1.5 economically empowered Africans out of a total 2 billion compared to Europe's 690 m.
The rule books change entirely and it is clear, by sheer size, Africa will be calling all the shots here.
In a sense, with a Pacific Ocean buffer appreciably wider than the Mediterranean, this is what the United States is experiencing with China, whose population is 4 ½ times as large.
Besides the desirability of that 1.3 billion market, if push came to shove, America would lose – with a struggle, but she would lose all the same.
Maybe this what Presidents Mbeki of South Africa and Kibaki of Kenya had in mind when they led 48 African heads of state eastwards, but they certainly knew that such deals as might come off the trip would be based on trade of some sort, not aid.
With the stream of Sino-African infrastructural investments came a largely unexpected surge in south-south and intra-African trade which compare well with the initial anticipations whose effects reverberate all over the stirring continent.
Many may think that African countries are out of the loop hole when it comes to globalization putting them at a major disadvantage when it comes to gaining economic status and overall status in the world power rankings. This is far from the truth. The documentary film "Bouncing Cats" proves just how much Africa is part of globalization and how a single organization in Africa can spread globally. Don't get me wrong Africa has much work to do before gaining any top status but they are heading in the right direction with a fast growing middle class that is going to lead the countries in the right direction.
If I may ask, how is emulating that you prescribe different from getting aid that you find to be a problem?
Without a doubt, Africa has the potential to surpass the achievements of Europe or any other continent if the right steps are taken. I would however not subscribe to doing things the way of the Europeans. Every continent has its uniqueness, Africa is a unique continent, needing uniquely ingenious strategies for growth. If we go down the path of Europe, we will not get the desired outcomes. China did his and it worked. If Europe had the best ways of doing things, the continent won't be in trouble today! Africans need to understand that to ALL men is given wisdom for exploits. Europe started from somewhere, as beings endowed with high levels of intelligence, must we sheepishly follow the path of others? No! I suggest that we rather find our unique solutions by studying the failures of the past, the failures of our colonial masters and avoiding the same ditch they have fallen into! The system of government is another key issue here, is democracy truly the way forward? I would argue that prior to colonisation, our systems of rulership were very effective, we let go of those systems to start implementing systems of governance that are still not fitting into our very deep traditions. Several political clashes and wars ravaging the continent came from western 'leadership' styles implemented. Before this time, Africa recorded very few wars. Africa is a continent rooted deeply in culture, WE MUST MAINTAIN OUR CULTURE and stand on our values to move ahead. I am not averse to our leaders borrowing a leaf or two from the west but super imposing the western style to a very unique continent will only amount to failure. Above all, Africans need to appreciate that depths of endowment nature has bestowed on us and work with this understanding.
ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT ALL...not all economic development strategies from the west can work for us, we are intelligent people who can by our understanding of our countries break new frontiers in all spheres of knowledge with our uniqueness. Let the story shift from Africa has the potential of growth to Africa is finding her own unique way of resolving the problems we have brought on ourselves by allowing every other part of the world tell us what to do and how to do them! The time to build is now, more than ever before. I hope that in the next few years, articles on Africa will be a lot more inspiring than they are at the moment.
One of my teachers was born in England. He and his wife have travelled in many different places and finally they joined the Zimbabwe nationality! Asked about what he thought about that country, he said he missed it a lot! He told me that people in Africa are very united and care about each other! Although they are still under the dictatorship of a president who would put everyone against him into jail, they are still happy as ever about life!
There is a movie called" Desert's Flower". It shows us a picture of African women's life!
Africa is truly the up and coming country and many of the world powers already know this and they have seen this coming. They know that it is a hot bed for trade and agriculture, I mean why else would India be buying up enormous tracts of land in Africa so that they can farm on them. And not only that but China is also beginning to slowly increase trade in Africa. With this boost in trade the African economy really will begin to boom. Not only that but they have a promising demographic and an extremely strong work ethic. Despite the corruption in Africa many people work hard each and every day and they send their children to school so they can become something better than what their parents are. And these kids in the schools are working hard to be good at what they do. But if you look at something like the L.R.A. and you see that a lot of the reason why Africa is failing is because of leaders who take away the children's advantages for their own self-righteous wants. I think Africa is headed in the right direction and we will see a lot from them in the future.
They're growing slowly, but if they don't nip the inter-nation pandemic of HIV entirely in the bud, you're not going to see the rising middle class taking over the work force as quickly as needed. Life expectancies remaining low just means that that over population isn't going to overtake Africa; that said, Africa's actualization will come when it can reach birth/death rate stability, and can build an infrastructure. America should to send aid? Then they should send it in the form of medical aid, and disease prevention to the max.
Despite all of the positives of the growing African economy, it once again will focus on how Africa builds its own infrastructure and job opportunities. Nations like China will always go into third world nations in order to try and help but eventually China will want what is most beneficial to itself. Every place in the world has these same opportunities to succeed because of the globalization that is ongoing but success will only come from African initiative.
Very good article. I'm a regular reader of The economist and it is qite rare to see such an optimistic view of Africa from this magazine. Slowly but surely people start to realise that Africa is not only about wars, diseases, poor governance and so on; it is also a place of exceptional potential with extremely dynamic and creative young people. Africa's youth are the most important asset of the continent. God bless Africa.
To start the corruption in Africa has to end. Once that does then Africa will be on the right path. Even though there are still very remote and poor areas if cities emerge people will move there and learn things like infrastructure and building techniques which they could bring back to towns and develop those towns. It will be slow at first but growth will expand real fast once it starts just because of the shear number of people in the country. Only time will tell if this can happen though
Even if Africa is showing considerable growth, I can't help but feel that it will struggle to follow in the footsteps of Asia. Growth and a middle class are not enough for a country to prosper. The country needs avid leaders who can not only inspire generations, but lead in times of difficulty that the country will inevitably face. Not only that, but the country needs to prepare for a future. Africa certainly has potential, but it will need the resources, the leadership, and the people to continue to foster that growth in order to succeed.

We made all possible preparations,
Drew up a list of firms,
Constantly revised our calculations
And allotted the farms,
Issued all the orders expedient
In this kind of case:
Most, as we expected, were obedient,
Though there were murmurs, of course;
Chiefly against our exercising
Our old right to abuse:
Even some sort of attempt at rising,
But these were mere boys.
For never serious misgiving
Occurred to anyone,
Since there could be no question of living
If we did not win.
The generally accepted view teaches
That there was no excuse,
Though in the light of recent researches
Many would find the cause
In a not uncommon form of terror;
Others, still more astute,
Point to possibilities of error
At the very start.
As for ourselves there is left remaining
Our honour at last,
And a reasonable chance of retaining
Our faculties to the last.
–W.H. Auden, Let History Be My Judge (1928) in: Collected Poems pp. 34-35.

Commercial fishing boats make their way back up the Fraser River to Steveston Harbour to offload sockeye salmon near the end of a 32-hour fishery window in Richmond, B.C., on Thursday August 26, 2010.
The federal Conservative government consulted with both environmental organizations and industry associations before making controversial changes to the Fisheries Act last year, but listened primarily to industry.
When a section of one of the government's massive 2012 omnibus budget bills limited the scope of the legislation governing the protection of fish and their habitats, some ecologists said it was the biggest setback to conservation law in more than 50 years.
(Edmonton, Alberta - Dec 9 2013) Several of Alberta's leading environmental organizations and First Nations have joined the Alberta Union of Provincial Employees, the Alberta Federation of Labour, and many other individual unions in condemning the heavy-handed tactics of the Alberta governments proposed Bill 45 and 46.

On Tuesday October 22, Sierra Club Ontario, Sierra Club Peel Region Group and Credit Valley Conservation hosted a tree planting at Erindale Park, Mississauga. This event concludes Sierra Club Ontario's tree planting for the season. We had a turnout of 11 volunteers and we managed to plant 143 trees, making our Grand Total 925 trees this year! The club joined with Credit Valley Conservation for four tree planting events this year, which took place in Streetsville Memorial Park, Meadowvale Conservation Area, Birchwood Park and finally Erindale Park.
Research is questioning the logic behind the federal government's move to streamline environmental assessments.
After tracking thousands of assessments over a decade, the peer-reviewed findings of Derrick de Kerckhove suggest a great majority of Fisheries Act environmental reviews over the last decade were completed well within recommended timelines.
Nor was there a bottleneck of projects being held up by a clogged review process, he said.
"We didn't find any. Even when the input was high, it seemed to be handled very well."
De Kerckhove, a University of Toronto PhD candidate, analyzed 10 years worth of data from Department of Fisheries and Oceans annual reports on the progress of environmental assessments triggered under the Fisheries Act. That legislation generates more such reviews than almost any other — anywhere from 7,700 to more than 12,000 in a single year.

Sierra Club Canada congratulates Premier Kathleen Wynne for stepping up to save the Experimental Lakes Area (ELA). The ELA is an essential part of Canada's environmental protection infrastructure and necessary for understanding how our environment is impacted by human activity.
"We thought the ELA was an endangered species until Premier Wynne stepped up," said Dan McDermott, Director of Sierra Club Canada's Ontario Chapter.
The ELA was fundamental in demonstrating the how our lakes were being effected by Sulphur emissions from power plants and smelters. ELA research ultimately led to the US-Canada air quality agreement which prompted a significant reduction in toxic emissions, for which Canadians can be grateful.

Another infamous flop from the creative team of producer Howard Hughes and actor John Wayne, who had also teamed on THE CONQUEROR (also available on Google Video).

An interesting stat about the WWE Network has surfaced this week. Vince McMahon decided to air WWE Main Event live on his new subscription service, yet ratings for when the episode aired on ION actually increased from the week before, leading many within the company to believe that fans might prefer to watch things on television instead.
March 7, 2014
WWE Main Event is looking like it will be moved to the WWE Network soon, as the television deal between Vince McMahon and ION is set to expire in a month. Reports have surfaced that the network is not interested in renewing the deal. Since WWE is currently negotiating a lucrative new television deal for Monday Night Raw and Smackdown, other shows are being pushed into the background for the time being.
March 4, 2014
During the start of the latest episode of WWE Main Event, there was a quick mention about the death of Big Daddy V. The company also added a quick tribute to the upcoming episode of Smackdown as well. Still no official word as to why the company purposely neglected to throw up a quick memorial during Monday Night Raw this week.
February 27, 2014
On Tuesday night in Ontario, California, Drew McIntyre taped a match for WWE Main Event, where he worked against Intercontinental Champion Big E Langston. Things did not go as planned, as McIntyre ended up suffering an eye injury during the match. The cut was bad enough where he needed stitches backstage afterwards.
February 13, 2014
In order to give him a little bit of momentum heading into the Survivor Series, Alberto Del Rio was given a victory over Santino Marella on WWE Main Event this week.
November 21, 2013
Justin Gabriel and Tyson Kidd defeated Jinder Mahal and Drew McIntyre in a tag team match at the WWE Main Event taping.
December 19, 2012
Ricky Steamboat defeated Randy Savage in a classic match at Wrestlemania 3 to capture the WWE Intercontinental Championship, but that reign did not last too long. Just two months later, he has now lost the title to the Honky Tonk Man at a television taping in Buffalo, New York. Steamboat is taking some time off.
June 2, 1987
The third match at Wrestlemania 1 was a rather quick one, as Ricky Steamboat defeated Matt Borne in less than five minutes. Both men still managed to get a little offense in before Steamboat was able to scale the ropes and hit his patented flying cross body finishing move to seal the pin fall victory for the Dragon.

According to ABC.es, a Spanish court has issued a warrant for Paulina Rubio's arrest following her failure to appear in court to settle a $62,300 debt owed to Spanish producer Ana Rosa Quintana. The debt in question stems from a 2005 lawsuit brought against Quintana by Rubio. The lawsuit was initiated when Rubio alleged that Quintana's production company used their programs to make defamatory statements against her. However, the court did not rule in the Mexican pop star's favor and instead ordered Rubio to pay Quintana's legal fees.
In the nine years since, Quintana alleges that she has not seen a single penny of the money owed to her by Rubio. In a bid to collect her debt, the judge ordered police to arrest Rubio if she enters the country and Quintana has also requested that the government contact the Mexican embassy for Rubio's address. This is all happening amid Rubio's messy divorce from estranged husband Nicolás Vallejo-Nájera and her ongoing legal dispute with Telemundo concerning her contract for La Voz Kids.

Thalía has officially graduated from children's book author to a Kidz Bop star. OK, not exactly. The Mexican pop star and mom of two is now releasing an album for children, available March 25. The album will also include videos in which Thalía will jump around and sing along with cartoons and stuff. Does this mean the end to awesome songs like "Piel Morena"? Sigh.
For a sneak peek of what this will probably look like, take a look at this GIF of Brazilian singer Xuxa, who made the same crossover in the '90s.

She then saved herself and claimed it was a joke, saying, "That's terrible! I'm just joking. Ben, Puffy, you know I love you. You know that. They know it. It was a good punch line ... This is the worst interview ever. You are crazy. You got me in trouble."
In J.Lo's defense, nobody wants to answer questions about ex-boyfriends from, like, a decade ago. Check out the full interview below.

After the success of her sexy video for "Can't Remember to Forget You" with Rihanna, Shakira must know the video for the second song off her new album has got to be just as amazing, if not better. These photos prove that something incredible is in the making, mainly because the universe's Shaki fans have been waiting for the moment she steps out in a wedding gown — even if it's only a pretend wedding.
Listen to "Empire," below. Shakira's self-titled album drops March 25.

The Org is the latest Latino-produced web series to show network big wigs how a smart and timely Latino-centric comedy series is done. Created by a group called Undeportable Productions, the series is shot in the pseudo-documentary format popularized by NBC shows like The Office and Parks and Rec.
The Org makes light of the otherwise difficult journey faced by immigrant rights advocates. In the first episode, a student named Lucia desperately tries to convince apathetic students to help her fight for immigrant rights', trying everything from die-ins to handing out free pizza to joining forces with her recruitment competitors, the Human-Squirrel Alliance. Watch the series on DreamTV's YouTube channel. Check out the first episode, below.

Hector "Macho" Camacho's mother, Maria Matias, is not pleased that Daddy Yankee might make a movie about her late son. Daddy Yankee has mentioned that he would like to play the famed boxer, and that Camacho, his longtime friend, would have been pleased. But Matias isn't down with it. "Don't be fresh, don't be disrespectful. If he does the movie without coming to me first, I will sue him," she told El Gordo y la Flaca. "That's not right that everyone tries to get a piece of my son, for money. It's disrespectful. Better yet, why not make him a song?"
Daddy Yankee claims the two already had plans to do a movie together before Camacho died.

These elders can't seem to handle (or they absolutely love) Shakira and Rihanna's super sexy music video, "Can't Remember to Forget You."
Here's just a preview of their comments:
"Oh. What's going on here between these two women?"
"She's pointing her gluteus maximus at me."
"They seem to be really good friends."
"I'm glad I watched this."
Just as expected, RiRi and Shak made jaws drop.

Meet Marisol, Saturday Night Live's new Latina character. I'm sorry, did I say character? I meant stereotype. Presented during SNL's "Jewelry Party" skit, Marrrrisol (as this week's guest host, Lena Dunham introduced her) is a loud, over-the-top Latina office worker who was brought over to the "Junited States" by her scrawny American boyfriend, Bruce. What's worse is that Venezuelan beauty queen Marisol is too much of an airhead to even realize that her "men's rights activist" novio might actually be a bit machista.
This is the second time Cecily Strong — SNL's go-to Latina impersonator (who, might I add, is not Latina) — played an epically distasteful and offensive Latina character. Her other notable role includes Mimi Morales, a Latina youth political advocate who came off as a ghetto, unintelligent teen who didn't know the first thing about politics.
So far, there seems to be a huge lack of diversity among Strong's Latina characters, perhaps due in part to the fact there isn't much diversity among SNL's cast members themselves. Though the long-running sketch comedy show recently added one black comedian and two black female writers to the show (an SNL first), they have yet to hire a single Latina cast member during show's 39-year run.

Conservative Ann Coulter and The Daily Caller's Mickey Kaus — a self-identified Democrat — held a debate Saturday that quickly turned into a one-sided argument about immigration reform. Coulter — who argued for nearly an hour about how immigration is essentially the "browning of America" — said reform would only help Democrats.
"You want the Democrats who want more immigrants, particularly illegal immigrants, because they need brand-new voters, just warm bodies, more votes," she said. "Amnesty goes through, and the Democrats have 30 million new voters. I just don't think Republicans have an obligation to forgive law-breaking just because the Democrats need another 30 million voters."
Coulter also said concern about the safety and well-being of children of undocumented immigrants is not an excuse for reform.
"It's not as if people crossing the border illegally in the back of trucks marked 'pico de gallo,' hiding in barrels, running from the border guards — it's not like they did not know what they were doing was wrong," she said.

Five years before she won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress, Mexican-Born Lupita Nyong'o starred in Shuga, a popular African soap opera credited with raising HIV/AIDS awareness in more than 40 African countries.
Nyong'o played Ayira, a tenacious college student torn between two lovers in the first season of the hit MTV-based series. In true telenovela fashion, there were numerous steamy sex scenes featuring Ayira and her two lovers, only to drop a doozy of a bombshell by episode three. After engaging in several hot trysts with her older lover, Ayira finds out that she might have — spoiler alert — contracted HIV, putting both herself and her longtime boyfriend, Ty, in grave danger.
"I think one thing [Shuga] is trying to do is talk about how HIV and AIDS is not a death sentence," Lupita told CNN in 2010. "[HIV] is a condition that can be managed, if one chooses to do so. If one catches it early on you can live a healthy life with HIV. I've been able to be an ambassador for HIV and AIDS."
Though Nyong'o has since left the popular African soap to become Hollywood's new it girl (and everyone's bestie in their own minds), Shuga has continued on its mission to raise awareness of the deadly disease. During Sunday's Academy Awards ceremony, the producers of Shuga gave Nyong'o's rumored novio, Jared Leto, a shout out for highlighting HIV/AIDS in his acceptance speech, before congratulating Nyong'o on her big win.
Here's a peek at Nyong'o like you've never seen her before:

Jennifer Lopez and fellow American Idol judges shared a couple of baby photos on Thursday's episode, and obviously J.Lo wins for most adorable baby ever. The 44-year-old beauty reminisced about her favorite song as a child, "Saturday in the Park," which is about the Fourth of July.
"My birthday is in July so I felt like it was about me a little bit," she said. Que linda!

The Dominican Republic's Ministry of Culture doesn't think it's a big deal that a group decided to dress up as the Klu Klux Klan at its annual carnival parade.
"Every group is free to choose their themes, whether using elements of the Dominican identity or universal culture in their costumes," the ministry tweeted.
KKK en el malecon, Santo Domingo! Que le paso en la cabeza del Ministro de la cultura? pic.twitter.com/2xISnXvuHl
— Baguidy-Gilbert Serg (@sbg55) March 3, 2014
The ministry also added that the costumes were intended to be a criticism of the white supremacist organization. The country has been in the news recently regarding racial issues, specifically relating to its Supreme Court ruling mandating an audit on all birth certificates going back to 1929, which would strip citizenship of any one born to undocumented parents since then. Human rights organizations estimate that it could lead to nearly 200,000 people losing their citizenship, most of whom are Haitian.

Yandel of the duo Wisin y Yandel is heading on his first solo tour De Líder a Leyenda in April, performing in major U.S. cities and several venues in Puerto Rico. This is great news for the Boricua star as both artists have launched their solo careers (Wisin just released a song with Jennifer Lopez and Ricky Martin, too), but it makes me nostalgic for some old-school Wisin y Yandel.

Venezuelan authorities nabbed three more men in connection with the robbery and murder of former beauty queen Monica Spear,29, and her ex-husband Thomas Henry Berry, 39, bringing the total number of defendants to 10.
José Gregorio Ferreira Herrera, 18, Franklin Daniel Cordero Álvarez, 28, and Nelfrend Antonio Jiménez Álvarez, 21, are the latest suspects accused of robbing and murdering them on Jan. 6. On Feb. 24, Jean Colina Alcalá, 19, Alejandro Maldonado Pérez, 21, Adolfo Rico Agreda, 26, Leonar Marcano Lugo, 32, and Eva Armas Mejías, 39, were also accused of various crimes associated with the case, ranging from attempted robbery to homicide. Additionally, two unidentified teenagers have also been accused of aggravated assault in connection to Spears and Berry's deaths.
Spear, Berry and their 5-year-old daughter, Maya, were enjoying a family vacation in Spear's home country of Venezuela when their car suddenly broke down. Police reports indicate that the family was ambushed on the side of an isolated road between Puerto Cabello and Valencia as they waited for a tow truck. The victims' daughter witnessed the roadside shooting and suffered a gunshot wound but survived. Authorities say she has no recollection of the violent ordeal.

It's no secret that everyone is obsessed with Mexican-born Kenyan Oscar-winning actress Lupita Nyong'o, so obviously Mexico wants to claim her just as much as Kenya does. Her solution is perfect.
I am Mexican and Kenyan at the same time, she told interviewers on the red carpet. I have seen that they are fighting over my nationality, but I insist I am Mexican-Kenyan and I am fascinated by tacos with roasted meat.
Both the Kenyan and Mexican presidents tweeted about Nyong'o's Oscar success last night.

then when i want bring back the music
nice lol it

Considering it only took 2 says to make it isnt the worst, but i reminds me alot about Dragon ball z with the sound effects. 1 thing that did annoy me a bit was when it was sliding along the words went out of the screen, i agree with LegendarySleuthLoki u should get voice actors
For two long days? Geezus man. I've taken animation classes, and I know how hard it can be to animate movement. The movement in this is spectacular. It's fluid and it doesn't seem like you used tweening too much. Keep up the awesome work. (I think you do need to find some voice actors though and someone with a better storyline)
Alright I guess...
But don't you think the animation is a bit... amatuar.
And also, the text doesn't really fit in with the the sort of animation your doing.

Sand bedding works well in maternity area
More videos
Sand is a cooler bedding surface than straw, which is one of the reasons why Opitz Dairy Farms, of Saukville, Wis., has chosen to use it in the maternity area from March through November. During the winter, the farm reverts back to fresh straw. Sand also requires less maintenance - at half the cost of straw, says owner Jeff Opitz. And, sand has helped the dairy solve a problem that it was having with environmental Strep mastitis. "Sand in the maternity area is finally getting us over the hump so we can consistently run at or under a 200,000 somatic cell count," he adds.

Is your glass half empty or full?
My glasses: empty. Sunglasses, that is. That's what I thought when I arrived in San Francisco, stepping into the bright, bright sunlight. I instinctively reached for my sunglasses inside my shoulder bag. Except they were missing. I did find my paper napkin collection and my fleece hat, AKA Cozy Cozy.
I must have lost my glasses in the BART station, I thought, when I pulled out my sun hat. That happened on the train a few years ago. I had pulled my hat out of the bag, flinging my sunglasses to who knows where. Once I discovered them missing, I did not go to the police, but instead mourned quietly (May they rest in peace).
I raced back into the dark of the train station, paced up and down the platform, and retraced my steps, studying the escalator for possible clues. No sunglasses to be seen. I wondered whether someone had found them and turned them in. "Nope," said the tall man in the small booth. Or whether someone had found them and thought, "Finders keepers, losers weepers." I shuddered. That thought was too much to bear.
A few weeks ago, I had gone on a mad chase through Berkeley when I couldn't find my sunglasses in my bag. On that particular day, I was using my waist pack to carry my swim gear to/fro the pool. I had come out onto the street, unzipped my bag, pulled out my hat and sunnies, zipped my bag, walked to the library, unzipped my bag, placed my sunnies inside, storing them until I came out and then I unzipped my bag, took out my sunnies and put them on, until I stopped in a store and took them off. After awhile, I ambled toward home, until I realized I was not wearing my sunglasses. I unzipped my bag. My sunglasses were not resting on top of my swimsuit nor were they tucked inside my red flip flops. "My sunglasses are missing!" I exclaimed. I raced back to the store. No sunglasses. Then to the performer I had listened to earlier. Not there, either. Where could they be? They couldn't just walk off. Or could they?
Then I put my hand inside my pocket and touched the earpieces. I should have known my glasses would be in my pocket, since several years ago I lost a different pair in the exact same place. I have tried, over the years, to reform. I know, I know. I must try harder.
Yesterday, when my sunglasses disappeared, I remembered my experience of two weeks ago. Feeling quite clever, I checked my pockets. No glasses. I also rechecked my bag a few more times, refusing to give up hope. I pulled out a plastic spoon, more napkins, my water bottle, and touched the soft fleece of my hat. Poor Cozy Cozy. It was trembling. No doubt still traumatized from its incident last year when, on my birthday, I had let the hat out of the bag, holding it on my lap in the car as my Non-Marital Spouse and I drove through Sonoma. We stopped on a dark country road to look at the stars. When I opened the door to get out, Cozy Cozy fell onto the highway without my noticing. It was especially tragic when we drove off. Tragic for both of us. Although the good news is we did find it again, Cozy Cozy remains forever scarred. It hates being left behind and any mention of missing objects sends it into conniptions.
Like any good detective, I reflected on my day's activities. Before leaving the house, I had picked up my hats, removed my sunglasses from their special shelf, and put all the items into my shoulder bag. As I went outside, I pulled out my sun hat and glasses and put them on. I was sure of it. Walking home, I thought wistfully of my spare pair of sunnies. Wouldn't they be pleased to know I needed them? They would be grateful for the opportunity to rest on my nose. I opened the door to my house. The first thing to catch my eye was a familiar sight, indeed. "You're here! You're here!" I picked up my glasses from their special shelf, kissing each plastic, polarized lens.
Finding my missing glasses has given my a new perspective on life.
My glasses: full.
Here's looking at you!
I hope you have forgiven yourself for the mishap with Cozy Cozy. I understand about the sunglasses. They help remind me my future is bright.
Thank you for my morning smile.

An auricle is a feature of the anatomy of the heart.
There are two auricles in the heart, one being attached to each of the anterior surfaces of the outer-walls of the atria (that is, the left atrium and the right atrium). Visually, they look like wrinkled pouch-like structures. Their purpose is to increase the capacity of the atrium, and so also increase the volume of blood that it is able to contain.
It is useful to know about the auricles - both to understand the physiology of how they work and contributes to the overall effectiveness of the heart, and also because (in terms of anatomy), other important components of the heart may be described in terms of their position relative to one or other of the auricles.
(They are called auricles because they were thought to resemble dog's ears.)
Visitors to this page might also wish to view the page about the Structure of the Heart and the page about the Functions of the Heart. (These pages were designed to meet the level of detail required by most first level courses in therapies such as Massage, Reflexology and Aromatherapy.)

Section: Slurm components (8)Updated: March 2010
slurmctld - The central management daemon of Slurm.SYNOPSIS
slurmctld [OPTIONS...]DESCRIPTION
slurmctld is the central management daemon of Slurm. It monitors all other Slurm daemons and resources, accepts work (jobs), and allocates resources to those jobs. Given the critical functionality of slurmctld, there may be a backup server to assume these functions in the event that the primary server fails.- OPTIONS
- Do not recover state of BlueGene blocks when running on a bluegene system.
- -c
- Clear all previous slurmctld state from its last checkpoint. Without this option, previously running jobs will be preserved along with node State of DOWN, DRAINED and DRAINING nodes and the associated Reason field for those nodes.
- Debug mode. Execute slurmctld in the foreground with logging to stdout.
- -f <file>
- Read configuration from the specified file. See NOTES below.
- -h
- Help; print a brief summary of command options.
- -L <file>
- Write log messages to the specified file.
- -n <value>
- Set the daemon's nice value to the specified value, typically a negative number.
- -r
- Recover partial state from last checkpoint: jobs and node DOWN/DRAIN state and reason information state. No partition state is recovered. This is the default action.
- Recover full state from last checkpoint: jobs, node, and partition state. Without this option, previously running jobs will be preserved along with node State of DOWN, DRAINED and DRAINING nodes and the associated Reason field for those nodes. No other node or partition state will be preserved.
- -v
- Verbose operation. Multiple -v's increase verbosity.
Print version information and exit.
The following environment variables can be used to override settings compiled into slurmctld.- SLURM_CONF
The location of the SLURM configuration file. This is overridden by
explicitly naming a configuration file on the command line.
If slurmctld is started with the -D option then the core file will be written to the current working directory. Otherwise if SlurmctldLogFile is a fully qualified path name (starting with a slash), the core file will be written to the same directory as the log file. Otherwise the core file will be written to the StateSaveLocation. The command "scontrol abort" can be used to abort the slurmctld daemon and generate a core file.NOTES
It may be useful to experiment with different slurmctld specific configuration parameters using a distinct configuration file (e.g. timeouts). However, this special configuration file will not be used by the slurmd daemon or the Slurm programs, unless you specifically tell each of them to use it. If you desire changing communication ports, the location of the temporary file system, or other parameters used by other Slurm components, change the common configuration file, slurm.conf.COPYING

COOKING / History
Dec 9, 2013 — Historian Maureen Ogle's new book examines the rise of our modern industrial meat system by examining its roots — all the way back to Colonial America. There's a fundamental disconnect, she argues, in our demands for both cheap, plentiful meat and an end to factory farms. Something, she says, has to give.

Oct 27, 2013 — You may blame a love of Snickers for those too-tight jeans, but in the early 20th century, the accusations were more serious: Candy was blamed for moral and physical decay. In Candy: A Century of Panic and Pleasure, Samira Kawash traces our love-hate relationship with sweets.
Apr 29, 2012 — Some of the most popular culinary creations — Granny Smith apples, Caesar salad and nachos — are products of fortuitous discoveries. Josh Chetwynd's new book, How the Hot Dog Found Its Bun, chronicles the quirky history of kitchen favorites.
Oct 9, 2011 — What's the oldest known dessert? According to a new book by author Michael Krondl, it's a fruitcake-like recipe from ancient Mesopotamia. India gave the world refined sugar — and doughnuts fried in sacred ghee. Krondl leads a sweet journey through the history of dessert.

Stayed here for 2 nights during Christmas vacation. The proprietors were friendly and welcoming. The rooms were very clean and maintained. The bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and there was a good variety. The reading room was cozy. To anyone staying there, wear earplugs when you go to bed or expect to be awoken by the village's fire horn that blares when an emergency call comes in. They local gov't really needs to address this issue (I know they're constrained by state regulation regarding emergency signals) as I'm sure it makes a lot of people think twice about staying in the B&Bs in the center of town. I'm certainly not going to knock the AL for something that's out of their control.

We stayed at the Artful Lodger Oct. 16-20, 2013 and found the location excellent and the Innkeepers most attentive and gracious. The autumn foliage was an added attraction. We recommend the Artful Lodger wholeheartedly. North Carolina visitors

We had a wonderful time at this inviting, immaculate B&B, conveniently located in the center of Clinton. We felt pampered but not overwhelmed with too much info and attention. Susan made wonderful gluten-free breakfasts so we could both enjoy our meal. We will definitely be back!
Risposta del proprietario
We're so glad you enjoyed your stay, and we look forward to your return. All the best,

The Artful Lodger is the best Bed and Breakfast we have ever found. Its proprietors, Tim and Susan Sweetland (a name that reflects their personalities), have become like members of the family over the last 5-years in which we stayed in the establishment literally a dozen times or more. While our daughter, Sara, attended nearby Hamilton College, we were lucky enough to win the B&B's lottery for in-demand weekends. Each room is beautifully decorated, affordable, and the housekeeping is meticulous. The location on the idealic Clinton village green makes each weekend magic with wonderful nearby restaurants and shops. Their breakfast table frequently includes elegant hot egg-based casseroles, breakfast meats, yogurt fruit/granola parfaits, and/or cereal, and juice, tea or coffee, and get this, fresh baked oatmeal bread and jam made the evening before (the smell of which wafts through the hallways). The breakfast table often includes friendly intelligent conversation with lumminaries from around the country (or the world) and their bright-eyed sons or daughters making college visitis or attending nearby Hamilton or Colgate. The owners offer a compiled book of local restaurant menus, recommendations and will do anything to make their guests feel at home, including placing fresh-baked cookies under a glass cover in the hallway. The walls frequently include beautiful new rotating exhibitions of paintings from local artists for sale and conversation. We hesitate to tout this small town nirvana any further for fear of shuting ourselves out of room availability for future fall Adirondack weekends now that Sara has graduated.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review. It has been such a pleasure getting to know you over the years. We wish you all the best in all your endeavors and look forward to your next visit.

Rockwell Knuckles - Baking Soda
Artist: Rockwell Knuckles
Producer: Trifeckta
Album: You're F*cking Out, I'm F*cking In
Avg Rating: 2.8 ( 8 total votes )
Just how big is St. Louis repper Rockwell Knuckles fixing to do it in the near future? Let's just say he's gonna be blowing up like Baking Soda and vinegar in a model volcano. On this bubbly new single, the artist drops bars packed with larger-than-life braggadocio over the sax-laced, MPC-heavy production of Trifeckta. Digging it? Then keep it locked for details on forthcoming full-length You're F*cking Out, I'm F*cking In, which has yet to receive a solid drop date.

Online video startup's shift to email marketing tests industry
- Christopher Calnan, ABJ Staff
For example, Invodo Inc. produces videos for online retailers. The company has raised about $7.5 million in funding, and during the last six months, it quadrupled its number of Internet Retailer 500 clients. Invodo, founded in 2007, announced last month that it was opening a 200,000-square-foot video production facility in Dallas and expanding its Austin headquarters.
Also, BizGreet Inc., founded in 2008 by local entrepreneurs Mat Harris and Mark Peters, sells software for producing online marketing videos that include most recipients' first names. The company has generated interest from clients that range from major politicians to minor league baseball teams.
Harris agreed with McGilvray about the inherent difficulties in delivering video in emails. Internet service providers tend to remove such content from emails because they require so much bandwidth. Also, he said the threat of viruses makes recipients hesitant to open messages with other than conventional content.
"The real question is: Would video increase the click-through rate of the email itself?" Harris said. "People are growing wary of clicking on a lot of things when opening an email."

Who's making money in the cloud?
- 25 January, 2013 12:52
Who's really making money in the cloud computing market?
It can be tough to say for sure because most cloud computing companies don't make official revenue and earnings figures available. But, that hasn't stopped some analysts from making estimating at least the revenue results.
Analyst firm Technology Business Research estimates annual revenue for the top public cloud companies in 2012 across infrastructure as a service (IaaS), software as a service (SaaS) and platform as a service (PaaS) markets. As you can see here, only Salesforce.com, Amazon Web Services and Microsoft are believed to have crossed the $1 billion mark for annual cloud revenue. Providers like IBM, HP, Citrix and AT&T still have a ways to go.
