Hunt for top Luzon boxers on
Already rich with boxing talents in Visayas and Mindanao, ALA Promotions has expanded its search for bright prospects in Luzon.
The Cebu-based professional stable yesterday unveiled the ALA-Cobra Tunay Na Lakas Boxing Tour Luzon—a road show that will showcase little-known boxers in major cities and provinces throughout the region.
ALA Promotions vice president/general manager Dennis Canete said they would use the same framework that allowed the outfit owners Tony and Michael Aldeguer to discover current and potential stars in the Vis-Min area.
"We're pretty sure a lot of skilled fighters can be found here in Luzon. We will tour the area so they can have an avenue to fight," said Canete, who graced the weekly PSA Forum at Shakey's Malate with ALA events manager Claire Anne Lukban.
First stop of the Luzon talent identification search will be on Saturday at Mandaluyong City Gymnasium, where ALA Promotions put up a six-fight card featuring some of the best pro boxers in Metro Manila.
"Hopefully, in time, we'll find boxing idols here in Luzon," said Lukban.
Lukban added that the Luzon tour will also have stops in Pagsanjan, Laguna next month, Makati City in November, Antipolo City in December and Cavite City in January next year.

Why make a new article? hasn't 8.0.1 been out for quite some time now? :/
It was pointless to resist... The DarthMod series of Mods strikes back to destroy all gameplay inconsistencies of the original game and offer you better AI, realistic battles and unequaled challenge.
As I have promised, I may have retired but I will offer DarthMod Empire Patches that will include several gameplay optimizations and launcher fixes.
Posted by DARTH__VADER on Mar 20th, 2013
Step 1
You have to have installed the Full Version of DarthMod Empire v8.0. Find all download mirrors here: DarthMod Empire v8.0 Platinum Download.
Step 2
Open the Launcher and do Settings->Enable Restore Mode->Close Launcher->Select "Vanilla Ready" It is necessary to do this so to be sure that all the gameplay files get updated correctly. (If you have previously installed Beta Update 20+ you do not need to do this procedure).
Step 3
Run the Patch installer and follow the instructions (they are similar to the installer of the full version).
You can now play DarthMod Empire as previously with all the newest enhancements and fixes by using the launcher and re-applying your preferred settings.
PS. To be sure check that the DME_darthmod.pack file has date 20/3/2013. If yes then the patch is installed correctly.You can find the file in the games data folder usually in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\empire total war\data
Why make a new article? hasn't 8.0.1 been out for quite some time now? :/
The beta was available. This is the final version.
It's epic modwork Guest. Buy this game to play this mod.
i love your mods. thanks for working on them all these years =D
Can't access TWcenter :/ Guess this'll wait...
I downloaded Darthmod for Empire today and I installed it like in the description.
But, I have a Problem with the game now: When I start from the launcher, Steam says I'm playing Empire, but I see no screen and after 4-5 sec the Steam-Button is normal again too.... So, it won't start. I tried many things and I don't know why the game isn't working anymore. Thx for the help, and great mods!
Guys the dagestan bug is defenetly NOT fixed!
Man CA is so stupid to ignore you. You really helped make this game.
Thanks for your support, Darth!!
gret mod! i apreciate your job and dedication
I only started playing DarthMod last year, but it has immensely improved Vanilla Empire for me. Gentlemen of the design team, I applaud your efforts in creating one of the most thorough and just epic mods ever.
Great mod, praises and Kudos to you and the team
ottoman fix doesnt work - too bad. but thanks for all your work you put into this excellent mod darth!
I love it rough.
My friend has desynch issues in multiplayer after this release...any known fixes?
Some of my units contains 87,5 men ?
How is it ?
I noticed greece has a lot of unit available in its roster. is it possible to play as greece in the grand campaign?
I think preferred some previous DarthMod versions to platinum: the amount of soldiers in units is odd, my artillery only has one gun in each unit even though it says there are four, there are unusual duplicates eg militias that have 86 or 100 men, etc etc

Arizona Cardinals
Former Cardinals QB Warner 'impressed' with Ryan Lindley
Three years after he retired, the Arizona Cardinals are still trying to replace Kurt Warner.
The latest quarterback to audition is Ryan Lindley, a sixth-round pick in the 2012 draft who received his first NFL start against the Rams last Sunday.
Lindley, who completed 31-of-52 passes for 312 yards with four interceptions, had his struggles.
But according to Warner, who was a guest of Arizona Sports 620's Doug and Wolf Wednesday, he also had some very positive moments.
"I saw a lot of good things," Warner said. "I felt like, especially early in the game, things were really good."
Warner, who is an analyst for the NFL Network, said it appeared things "got away from" Lindley as the game wore on, and the pair of pick-sixes the QB threw certainly didn't help.
"But I was impressed; I thought he made some really good throws," Warner added. "Some tough reads or went to places where you might not expect a rookie to go and deliver the football well."
Warner said Lindley did make some of the classic rookie mistakes, but overall he was "really impressed" with the way the 23-year-old played.

Box score | Photo gallery | AP photo gallery
Wisconsin shot 52.6 percent from 3-point range and the No. 4-seeded Badgers advanced to the third round of the NCAA Men's Basketball Championship with a 73-49 victory over No. 13 Montana Thursday afternoon at The Pit in Albuquerque, N.M.
The loss snapped Montana's 14-game winning streak and ended the Grizzlies' season at 25-7.
Wisconsin (25-9) advances to the tournament's third round and will face either No. 5 Vanderbilt or No. 12 Harvard Saturday at The Pit.
Jordan Taylor had 17 points, eight rebounds and six assists to lead Wisconsin. Art Steward had a team-high 18 points for Montana.
Montana took a 5-2 lead in the opening minutes on a Steward basket and 3-pointer by Derek Selvig. It would turn out to be the Grizzlies' largest and final lead of the game.
Josh Gasser tied it with a three for Wisconsin, and a Ryan Evans jumper at the 15:53 mark gave the Badgers the lead for good.
Evans would score nine straight points for the Badgers and finish with 14 first-half points on 6-of-8 shooting. He was the frequent recipient of his teammates' drive and kicks against Montana's zone defense.
The Grizzlies were able to force mid-range jumpers and 3-point shots by the Badgers and keep their bigger opponents mostly out of the paint, but Wisconsin built a 39-29 halftime lead on 51.9 percent shooting.
The Badgers went 6 for 12 from 3-point range in the first half.
"We knew (Evans) would be a key matchup for us. He's too good to call an X factor, but if there was one matchup we wanted to hold down it was him," UM coach Wayne Tinkle said.
"I thought we were a little out of character defensively. We knew we had to defend the 3-point line, and we allowed them to get open looks early, and that got their confidence going."
But it wasn't all Badgers in the first half. Steward scored 12 points in the first half, and a Kareem Jamar jumper at the 4:44 mark brought Montana within four, 30-26.
Wisconsin allowed a Shawn Stockton basket at the 3:05 mark to make it 33-28, then the Badgers showed why they lead the nation in scoring defense at a mere 52.9 points per game.
After Stockton's basket, Montana went more than 10 minutes spanning the first and second halves before its next field goal, and that allowed Wisconsin to slowly build its lead to 16 points, 48-32.
For the most part Montana was able to get the ball to the basket. It was finishing that was a problem. The Badgers' 6-10 junior center, Jared Berggren, finished with a career-high seven blocks.
He was a big reason the Grizzlies only had five second-half baskets and shot less than 30 percent over the final 20 minutes.
"We pride ourselves on creating doubt in the minds of our opponents, and I thought Wisconsin really did a good job of that today," Tinkle said.
"We always preach when you attack, you go through the chin. We didn't do that. We were double-pumping, and on this stage you have to go strong. Our approach at attacking the basket wasn't what it needed to be.
"We had plenty of opportunities within the game where we had shots at the basket that could have stopped their momentum a little bit and maybe gotten us going. If we convert some of those layups, I think that would have allowed us to relax a little bit and not feel like we needed to make the perfect play on every possession."
Mathias Ward finally ended Montana's basketless streak when he drained a three at the 13:01 mark of the second half. Will Cherry pulled up and hit his own triple just seconds later, and that brought Montana within 10, 48-38, and forced Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan to use a timeout.
Out of the break Taylor scored on a drive to the basket, then Mike Bruesewitz hit back-to-back jumpers, one a 3-pointer, to extend the lead back to 17, 55-38, and end any threat of a comeback.
Cherry's triple was one of just three baskets Montana's leading scorer would have on a frustrating afternoon. Wisconsin forced Cherry into a 3-for-14 shooting effort, with no assists and a pair of turnovers.
"The tough part about preparing for (Cherry) is he can quickly get to the rim off a shot fake, or he can catch and shoot threes. He's a complete player," Ryan said.
"We just made sure we tried to run him off the 3-point line and squeeze the court. Make the driving lane smaller."
Steward led Montana with 18 points in his final game in a Grizzly uniform. Cherry finished with nine, Selvig seven and Jamar six.
Evans and Taylor scored 18 and 17 points for Wisconsin, combining to hit 12 of 18 shots. The Badgers shot 47.9 percent and finished with a 32-19 rebounding advantage.
"Just give a ton of credit to Wisconsin," Tinkle concluded. "They were ready to go and shot lights out and were more physical than us.
"But I'm proud of my group. It's been a heck of a year. It was a great run these guys put together, and I'm awfully proud of that. Getting this far is great."

1999 BEST French Restaurant
Maison Robert
We liked this Boston institution even before its recent renovation, but it's great to see it at the top of its game. Redecorating its Old City Hall surroundings hasn't hurt, but the real draw is Maison Robert's innovative cuisine. Among the appetizers, its foie gras with sauteed apples and caramelized blinis is spectacular. As for the entrees, its Maine lobster, smoked over applewood, might be the lobster dish in town. French with a twist. Its wine list boasts some terrific values.

Cancer Health Center
Cancer Drug Avastin Linked to Death Risk
Questions About Avastin continued...
If the indication is removed, doctors could still use the drug in an off-label way to treat breast cancer, though it is far less likely that it would be covered by insurance. "Off-label" refers to the legal practice of prescribing medication for a purpose not approved by the FDA.
According to an editorial that accompanies the study, the drug costs more than $50,000 a year.
Genentech is appealing the agency's decision, saying that patients deserve to have the treatment option.
"Avastin has helped people with five different incurable cancers; many have lived a longer time without their disease worsening, and in certain cases, Avastin has extended their lives," says Charlotte Arnold, senior manager of corporate relations for Genentech.
According to IMS health, a company that tracks pharmaceutical sales trends, from October 2009 through September 2010, global sales of Avastin were around $5.5 billion, making it the world's top-selling cancer medication.
Advice to Patients
Patients diagnosed with the cancers Avastin is approved to treat are often told they have a limited amount of time to live, and in that context, a medication that can extend their life for a short time or even simply maintain their quality of life can be a precious glimmer of hope.
Wu says he tries to carefully select the patients he puts on Avastin and he tries to help them understand that taking it is a gamble.
"Normally, I explain to them the risk of this treatment, including the very bad risks that people may die from this treatment," Wu says. "I also explain to them the potential benefits of treatment."
"If we watch them very carefully, it is a reasonably safe drug," he says.
When the cost is considered, however, the picture gets more complicated.
"Available data suggest that [Avastin] is biologically active in most but not all solid tumors," writes Daniel Hayes, MD, an oncologist who treats breast cancer at the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center, in his editorial on the study.
"However, the benefits of extended adjuvant [Avastin] in unselected populations may not be justified by the modest disease-free survival and questionable overall survival benefits reported thus far."

- Introduction
- General considerations
- Social aspects of wind instruments
- The history of Western wind instruments
- The music of wind instruments in western Europe
- Winds in jazz and folk music
In folk traditions
Wind instruments play an important role in the folk music of many cultures. Most folk music for winds imitates vocal models, such as the folk music for harmonica played by Americans, the love songs for flute played by Native American men, and the bagpipe music of eastern Europe, which usually consists of richly ornamented versions of local folk songs. (Many kinds of bagpipes are found throughout eastern and western Europe. These vary from the very simple ones found in Hungary, the Czech Republic, and Poland to the beautifully fashioned instruments with three and four pipes [which serve as drones] found in Scotland, Ireland, and the north of England.)
A few types of folk music are idiomatic to wind instruments. In Poland, perhaps because of the proliferation of instruments, including several basic types of flutes and bagpipes, folk music is dominated by instrumental tunes, most of them for dancing. In the Basque region of northern Spain and southwestern France, dances and processions are often accompanied by a single musician who plays a three-holed flute with one hand and a six-stringed dulcimer with the other. In certain African instrumental ensembles, percussion instruments sometimes are joined by teams of flute or horn players, each of whom plays a single note whenever it occurs in the melody. The Bambuti of eastern Congo (Kinshasa) often use up to six flutes, each playing variations of a different ostinato pattern.

The "Student of the Year" star Sidharth Malhotra, who is seen on the cover of men's magazine GQ India's February 2014 issue, says alcohol is a stress buster for many but he likes to stay away from it.
When asked how the one-film old actor deals with it at Bollywood parties, he said: "By making polite conversation."
"...drinking is a stress reliever for a lot of people (but) I just don't like alcohol...," GQ India quoted Sidharth as saying.
He will next be seen playing a "nice boy" looking for love in "Hasee Toh Phasee", set to release Feb 7. The film also features Parineeti Chopra.
Sidharth will also be seen in filmmaker Mohit Suri's upcoming film "The Villain" where he is playing a "very conflicted character".

Which professional's serve should I copy?

like Federer does before almost every serve and the angle/pose you start with.
Also, you basically don't pronate on your serve which adds a significant biomechanical and swing path gap between motions like Sampras/Federer etc.
I didn't know bouncing of the ball with the beam of my racquet is a Federer exclusive. Should I stop doing that too as I walk along the baseline to the next point? Hmm, I better think of new ways to get myself into rhythm...
The hold/rock is derived from my observation of Rafter (I had a phase where I tried to emulate Rafter's motion, but holy crap, it damn near destroyed my shoulder). I kept the concept, but just toned it down. Instead of holding it for a period of time like Rafter, I just let it drop and let it "rock" into my motion. It felt more simple to me. The "lock n' loaded", "cocking" (or whatever you want to call it) right before Sampras goes into his motion was just too much for me.
Next time I'll include the complete timeline for the progression of my serve.

Mediacracy: Why the Media is the Greatest Threat to the Integrity of the Political Process
October 17, 2012 by 9 Comments
A free society with open elections is most vulnerable at the interface between the voting public and the political candidates. That is where the Mediacracy has attempted to cut democracy's throat by controlling that interface. Mediacracy is not interested in truth or facts, only in power. It is not interested in providing a service to readers, but in controlling them. Mediacracy is strangling democracy and threatens the integrity of the political process.

Marshall Fine Arts Focus on Interdiscipllinary Skills
By Darst, Paul
HUNTINGTON – Most people probably wouldn't think of a fine arts student as a valued member of the staff at a bank.
But times are changing, and the Marshall University College of Fine Arts is changing with them. A new way of thinking is driving the college to start new courses of study designed to allow its students to work with people in other disciplines, said Byron Clerex, chairman of the Department of Art and Design.
"We offered a 3-D animation course this summer." he said. "It was a response to the demands the students were making. It focused on 3- D modeling, Web site and game design."
Another facet of the new program was new media: film and video and how they can be used in Web page and video game design. He said those concepts can be applied to nearly any industry today.
"This program connects (COFA) with the integrated science and technology programs." he said. "It's a partnership. We share a lot of aspects (of curriculum) and students."
The new program brings together the technical side and the creative side, Clercx said.
"We're trying to make the curriculum more purposeful," he said. "Students could tailor their degrees and take courses of interest to them.
Fine arts students would be more marketable in the work force as a result, Clercx said. Because students would have studied both the technical and creative aspects of Web page design, for example, they would be more appealing to employers.
Although the 3-D animation course taught by Professor Brent Patterson is not yet a regular part of the curriculum, the overall philosophy has been in place for a while, Clercx said.
"It's part of Dr. (Stephen J.) Kopp's interdisciplinary vision," he said. "… The interdisciplinary spectrum is the ideal climate for learning. It gives students a myriad of ways to approach problem solving."
The interdisciplinary approach to higher education is overtaking more traditional approaches today. Clercx said.
"Under the interdisciplinary umbrella, students …are better prepared. They can get the best from each program. It's enriching the intellectual output of our graduates.
"It's a paradigm change. We're recognizing how people problem solve. That's how the global markets are evolving. We need to leave the academy model and go toward the interdisciplinary model if were going to be germane."
Employers today are interested in just those types of workers, Clercx said. Fine arts students can get a taste of that world through internships that put their interdisciplinary skills to the test.
"They get real world experience," he said. "They have good listening skills and good layout skills.
"Sometimes companies see how those students can fit into their business. And students can see how they can fit into a company. It gives them confidence to go out into the real world."
And the college is committed to continuing the march toward interdisciplinary programs, Clercx said. COFA Dean Donald Van Horn has been working toward that goal.
"(Van Horn) makes it possible." Clercx said. "… This is student- driven. We want to provide them with the best possible experience.'

text: This issue contains four stories, all with Paula von Guther as the antagonist, though not always as the enemy. It is revealed in one of the stories that she is acting as she is because her child has been kidnapped and she is forced to be a spy (she takes her job pretty seriously though.) I liked the stories here for being golden age, in that they don't compare to modern comics, but they still aren't going off the deep end in terms of plot. There are a lot of simple things happening - Diana pulling children on sleds with her horse, smashing down a wall to save people from a fire.

VAR function
Estimates variance based on a sample.
Important This function has been replaced with one or more new functions that may provide improved accuracy and whose names better reflect their usage. This function is still available for compatibility with earlier versions of Excel. However, if backward compatibility is not required, you should consider using the new functions from now on, because they more accurately describe their functionality.
For more information about the new function, see VAR.S function.
The VAR function syntax has the following arguments:
Number1 Required. The first number argument corresponding to a sample of a population.
Number2, ... Optional. Number arguments 2 to 255 corresponding to a sample of a population.
VAR assumes that its arguments are a sample of the population. If your data represents the entire population, then compute the variance by using VARP.
Arguments can either be numbers or names, arrays, or references that contain numbers.
Logical values, and text representations of numbers that you type directly into the list of arguments are counted.
If an argument is an array or reference, only numbers in that array or reference are counted. Empty cells, logical values, text, or error values in the array or reference are ignored.
Arguments that are error values or text that cannot be translated into numbers cause errors.
If you want to include logical values and text representations of numbers in a reference as part of the calculation, use the VARA function.
VAR uses the following formula:
where x is the sample mean AVERAGE(number1,number2,…) and n is the sample size.
Suppose 10 tools stamped from the same machine during a production run are collected as a random sample and measured for breaking strength.
The example may be easier to understand if you copy it to a blank worksheet.

NEW ORLEANS For much of this spring, outdoor lights have remained mostly swarm free.
The Formosan termites that typically haunt New Orleans late spring nights haven't shown themselves.
But while the respite has been a relief, don't expect this to mean this old city has escaped unscathed.
The recent cooler weather has merely pushed the activity to a later date.
'In the next few weeks,' said Dr. Carrie Cottone, a research entomologist who heads the city's termite division. 'I think as soon as it gets warmer. Typically this time of year we get really, really warm weather and it's a night after a good rain, that's when we typically see them, especially as the winds are calm.'
Both Cottone and Dr. Claudia Riegel, the director of the New Orleans Mosquito, Termite and Rodent Control Board, said that while the cooler weather has kept the swarms from appearing, termites are still a problem.
In fact, both stressed that termites are active year round, just out of sight underground or in the wooden structures that make up the buildings of the city.
Termites thrive in warm, humid, calm areas, Cottone said, which New Orleans is beginning in April most years.
New Orleans has about 35 traps spread throughout the French Quarter, ones that have ensnared only a few termites so far this year.
In spite of the end to Operation Full Stop, a federally funded program that helped treat the French Quarter that finished its run in 2012, there are enough funds for the city to keep an eye on the pests. The money currently comes from the general fund and other work contracted by the Control Board, Riegel said.
'It's a pretty minor expense,' Riegel said. 'Just a few folks checking on a routine basis every couple of days, checking the sticky traps in the quarter.'
From April 1 through July 1 roughly termite swarm season the city monitors those traps, baiting them in an attempt to help control the colonies. Termites, Riegel said, are a social insect that will share its food with others.
The bait has an active ingredient called a chitin synthesis inhibitor, which keeps the termite from molting.
The board can't rely on this cool snap to eliminate them.
In other words, enjoy it while you can. Sooner rather than later they'll be out, swarming around the lights.
'They haven't been bad this year but I have to say they haven't been bad yet,' Cottone said. 'They're still coming.'

SEATTLE Richard Sherman was successful in his defense again.
On Thursday, the Seahawks Cornerback learned his appeal on a positive drug test was upheld. It means he will not face a suspension.
They corrupted the result and that s why it was a positive test, Sherman said at Seahawks Headquarters in Renton. There was a lot of mistakes, on top of me not taking anything.
Sherman faced a four game ban after the NFL said he tested positive for prescription drug Adderall back in September. He has played in every game as he appealed the decision.
Robert Wallace, a former NFL executive who handled drug test appeals, reversed the decision on Thursday after a long investigation. He found flaws in the testing procedure, and wrote that it is indisputable that this collection was not ordinary.
He cited testimony from both Sherman, and the technician who took Sherman s sample at the Seahawks Headquarters back in September. Wallace said both the technician, identified as Mark Cook, agreed that a cup was broken in the testing process and Sherman s sample was put into another cup. Sherman had also noted that he noticed several used cups in the vicinity of the test.
Wallace says Cook didn t acknowledge the broken cup, until asked about it by a supervisor in October, and contradicted himself in testimony about the incident.
It s crucial the league learns from that and that it not make that mistake in the future, said Michael McCann, Director of the Sports Law Institute at the Vermont Law School.
He notes that the case may open the door for other players who also test positive.
(They) could also file an appeal and it would seem based on this precedent it would have success, he said.
McCann also believes the issue could be a positive for the NFL and the Players Association because it shows the appeal process is legitimate .
The NFL did not return a call seeking comment.
Larry Rosok, who runs ArcPoint Labs in West Seattle, says it is standard operating procedure to separate a sample into two different tubes for testing, but you need to make sure they are closed securely and they very seldom leak.
He says Sherman s case can remind people who are going through a similar process to closely watch those handling the sample.
Keep (it) in your view. Watch the collector when they re doing it , said Rosok, who stressed that he was unsure how different his process is from the NFL mandating testing procedure.

Tegegnework Gettu hails from Ethiopia. Since March of 2013, he has served as United Nations Under-Secretary General for General Assembly Affairs and Conference. The UN official says his first year as Under-Secretary-General was productive.
"I just finished my 10-month report to the Secretary General and he seems to be happy. I had six priorities, all of them addressed during my first year. So overall, it was very challenging, but I think I managed to do very well," he says.
The six priorities included managing last year's General Assembly session, reorganizing the department, promoting integrated global management, accelerated implementation of technological innovations, and work-sharing with offices in Geneva, New York, Nairobi and Vienna.
Public Service
The UN official says public service is something he grew into as his career evolved.
"Getting trained in development administration and management skills and practically using it - in academics, international organizations and government - I managed to get exposure that progressively attracted me to it," he explains.
He says he has benefited greatly from the opportunities afforded him and from his long years of public service.
Tegegnework is one of a handful of Africans to have held the post of Under-Secretary General - an experience he says he finds humbling.
"As an African, I feel proud I was given this chance," he says. "I have the double responsibility as an African to make sure that I succeed in this. It also shows that Africans are quite capable of competing and (performing) this kind of a job, and that more opportunities have to be opened up for more Africans."
Some view UN officials as people who live cushioned lives and are detached from the realities of the world. Tegegnework considers such portrayals as inaccurate.
"The UN is not a monolithic organization; it has structural limitations and bureaucratic weaknesses," he notes. "But it has played a very critical role in many parts of the world, and quite a large number of (UN) people have sacrificed their lives. So to reach such a conclusion is unfair."
Tegegnework says despite the wear and tear, the UN has served the world well the past 68 years - especially the poor, refugees and the dispossessed.
The Ethiopian-born international diplomat has served with the world body for years - especially on issues that pertain to Africa. So how does he assess the continent's status today - some 50 years after independence? Tegegnework sees a mixed picture with a promising outlook.
"We have lost decades of conflict, lost decades of dictatorships and lost decades of unaccountability in Africa," he laments. "But the past few years, Africa has been making progress. The continent needs to focus now on continuing economic growth - not only from the service sector, but in the industrialization in agriculture and the creation jobs for the large youth population that is the majority in Africa today."
Tegegnework says while economic development should not be held hostage to political issues, both democratic governance and economic growth are critical to Africa's future.
"Economic progress, one way or the other, must be done in Africa because we have good natural endowment and huge labor force. But democratic institutions, accountable government and economic development are critical for Africa now," stresses the Under-Secretary General."
The UN diplomat says Africans need to move "from a survival to a stability mode, and on to a successful model mode." That, he says, will lead Africa to become "significant" in global affairs.
Tegegnework is married and has two children.

Imelda Marcos' former aide charged in stolen Monet
More News from Agence France-Presse
NEW YORK–The former personal secretary to Imelda Marcos was charged Tuesday in New York in an alleged conspiracy to sell a Monet painting that had belonged to the former first lady.
Vilma Bautista, 74, was one of three people accused of "illegally conspiring to possess and sell valuable works of art acquired by" Imelda Marcos, and "keeping the proceeds for themselves," the Manhattan district attorney DA's office said.
They are also accused of seeking to hide the gains from the US tax authorities.
The Monet, which sold for $32 million in 2010, was part of Imelda Marcos' hoard of artworks and other luxuries accumulated during the rule of her husband Ferdinand Marcos, who was ousted in a popular revolt in 1986. The Philippine government moved to recover the property in the aftermath of the revolution, but much of it vanished.
"A significant amount of artwork and other valuables disappeared from Philippine government property, including from the Philippine Consulate townhouse in Manhattan," the DA's office said.
Beginning in 2009, Bautista and her two nephews allegedly began trying to sell the Monet water lily, "Le Bassin aux Nympheas," and three other valuable works that the Philippines government was trying to repossess.
They succeeded with the Monet, selling it to a London gallery and dividing the $32 million, with Bautista "keeping the largest share of the money herself," prosecutors said.

It looks like the Controller thread has disappeared with the downtime....
What buttons are you remapping?
Here is what I have found so far:
The following is the keys for the xbox 360 controller
Joy1 = Start button
Joy2 = Back button
Joy3 = Left thumb depress
Joy4 = Right thumb depress
Joy5 = Left Bumper
Joy6 = Right Bumper
Joy7 = Left Trigger
Joy8 = Right Trigger
Joy9 = A Button
Joy10 = B Button
Joy11 = X Button
Joy12 = Y Button
Joystick1_up / Joystick1_down / Joystick1_left Joystick1_right = Left thumb stick
Joystick2_up / Joystick2_down / Joystick2_left Joystick2_right = Right thumb stick
Have not really remapped the joysticks yet. Backwards seems to be broken on left thumb stick.
I have not found the D pad bindings yet.
These can be mapped natively in game using the /bind command.

Generous pours, good food and a great place to meet up with friends. This place is a nice addition to the community!
Small place but nice. Decent pricing and good food. The service was rather slow but the staff was very nice. I would definitely visit again.
Was pleased to see they added menu choices that are designated as gluten-free now so I don't have to ask! Had a lovely meal with friends and everyone cleaned their plates. Everything was fantastic! Also, the cider on tap from my hometown in Oregon is a huge plus. I will be back for more soon!
To be honest, when we walked into this place we almost turned around and walked out to visit a nearby restaurant. This is because it was darker and more bar like than we were expecting. Luckily we decided to forgo our initial judgment and take a seat. We ordered the hamburger and fish and chips to split amongst the three...
Pub atmosphere with delicious food and unique options! Kids loved the fish and chips and other members in our party had ahi tuna tacos that were out if this world! Will visit again!
We had some friends staying in Big Sky from out of state and we met them at First Place Pub. We had never been before but will definitely be back! The staff was so friendly and helpful but not overwhelming. The food was excellent. The menu had a great variety with many choices I didn't expect at a "Pub." Very...
A bit of split personality going on here. Some menu items hint at an experienced and experimenting hand in the kitchen while the ambiance (and the two large TV's in a small space) screams "sports bar", also reflected by the burgers on the menu. Since it was the NBA final, we opted for the burgers - which were quite good...
Excellent food, service, and very friendly people. The burger is the best anywhere! The Pinot Noir was excellent as well.
I would highly recommend eating at The First Place Pub. The atmosphere is fun, the food is delicious, and the staff is nice. We ate here with another family and all walked away very happy with our orders. We even wanted to go back the next night to try dishes people in our party had tried. The menu isn't very...
ordered the pork medallions which were outstanding, tender and sweet. others at table ordered hamburger and fries which were also excellent. it is a local hangout and sports bar so perhaps not ideal for children though it is so informal and the food so good that I would still consider taking the little ones

Why Work Out Till You Puke?
Thursday, August 07, 2014
Between Crossfit, P90X and the Tough Mudder races, extreme work outs (that sometimes cause participants to vomit or otherwise injure themselves) are growing in popularity. Julie Beck, senior associate health editor at The Atlantic, and Gretchen Reynolds, author of the "Phys Ed" column for the New York Times Well blog, explore the motivations behind this form of exercise and wonder if it's even healthy.
Guests:Julie Beck and Gretchen Reynolds

These people make me laugh. Never worked out; never will!
Why I work out hard, by the minute, big milestones: min#2: Before I even get to the park my chest is open, I am breathing, feeling an immediate rush. Min5-10: Hard work getting revved up to sustaining 85% of my max HR. Min 17 Ahhhhh endorphin release starts: Joints feel better, muscles loose, the music sounds greater than ever, it is propelling you. Endorphins even make intervals tolerable! Revving up with max effort and cooling down for minutes 20-35 would be painful but after the 17 mins mark it is a rush! Min 35: in summer outdoors keep it brief! Head for a 2.5 mins jog home. If you were keeping up with my workout in Wash Square Park tonight you would have burned 616 calories in 37.5 mins. Tonight I will go through a recovery hormone re-balancing that will make me feel incredible for the next 24 hours, and I will have leptin and ghrelin levels that will suppress my urge to eat all of the time. NONE of that happens, in my experience, with a workout pace of below 800 calories per hour. Gretchen Reynolds talks about all this in her 1st 90 minutes book...
Hi, NYC is my gym. I walk and walk in NYC and I have never vomited. I must have a very strong constitution because I am very thin (about 93 pounds). I walk a lot because money is very tight with me and because my lower back hurts a lot. When I walk, it often feels better. I have walked from Brooklyn through the Brooklyn Bridge to Manhattan and back. Eugenia Renskoff

In Catholic thinking every appetite requires moderation, which is a wide range. To exercise to the point of throwing up would be abuse of the body, though.
I tried P90X the video, but my brain gave up after so many bad jokes and the guy in saying silly things nonstop. Are there new videos without this feature?
"I am now injured and can no longer do intense sport."
There's a lesson in the Blair, see if you can figure it out.
"Throw Back Thursday"? Shouldn't that be Throw Up Thursday?
Sad you feel need to emphasize puking. It is such a minor part of working hard to get in shape. You have to know your limits and not eat improperly before the workout. Athletes have struggled forever with early stages of training when resuming after an off-season. Like most things, balance is the key.
Look at most major predators, like lions for example. The sleep and rest of the day but then when the hunt at night they must push themselves to the max to catch their fleeting prey. That is their exercise. If they don't catch prey often enough they lose weight and strength and starve.
When I need a good workout - I work! Thirty feet of garden row chopped up with a mattock (no need for any machines or jogging) or 10 minutes with a stack of big rounds of maple or ash and a splitting mattock - so much fun! so much panting energy. Or if I'd like some household task - giving the floor a good hand wash - get's it really clean and lots more panting. Sometimes working out is boring but getting a heavy task accomplished is always rewarding. Try Real Work!
Not sure why the show is focusing on this. It IS such a first world problem. As a fit person (weight training, ran a marathon, cycling, yoga), the problem I see with these things is safety. Why aren't you talking about the safety Brian? Someone said it right here, form is so important to safety. Most people doing these fitness craze things are in it for the fad and aren't really life long fitness people. It's all very dangerous and stupid. I'm not surprised that one of the commentator's friend had a heart attack.
Could it be also a fear of death? No one has provided meaning to the person?
Had to laugh out loud when the caller who talked about getting shocked after running was asked to explain why he replied "I don't know."
As John Prine says, "It's a big old goofy world."
It can be overdone: is it a lack of availability of greater pursuits? In Catholic thought, unless you are training for a competition, etc., it would be a form of gluttony: too much attention to the body and food and it's needs. Moderation.
I've always been an athlete and have always driven to work out as hard as I can. I do it to improve compared to my last practice/workout. Possibly I also have a high tolerance for discomfort if I feel I am in control of that discomfort.
I once threw up after a workout. It was the first swim team practice of the season when I was about 11 or 12 years old. Never again. I know the edge and I am able to ride close to it, mostly in dance classes, but I back down before dizzy queasiness takes over. (I'm turning 40 this year.)
I also like obstacle course races, but no electricity or claustrophobia for me. I appreciate the fact that they ask for balance and upper body and core strength, not just running ability.
I really would not characterize my love of working out hard as superiority or narcissism. It's more a form of discipline and release of tension. I come from a family of choral singers, and I think what I get out of exercise is similar to what they get out of singing.
I want to puke listening to this nonsense!!
Why cover this "story"?!?!
I am way out of shape, but I love crossfit. I did it for the challenge and the social support at my box- they were great. I loved pushing myself hard, even though I finished last at every WOD. I am now injured and can no longer do intense sport. I miss it horribly and I want to go back every day, even after a year.
puking is not the biggest problem. I have heard horror stories about muscle injury and and back injury that has caused permanent damage.
Electric shock breaks during tough mudder?
People are NUTS. Masochists!
Does Pukey the Clown replace Uncle Rhabdo (also a clown)? Seems like CrossFit (and possibly other programs like it) might have some issues with limits.
(Article from last year on the issue of rhabdomyolysis in CrossFit: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/eric-robertson/crossfit-rhabdomyolysis_b_3977598.html )
What is the physiology of vomiting after intense physical exertion?
Water made the Grand Canyon, not puking.
Learn something from the Tao Te Ching.
Ted Talk with cardiologist James O'Keefe about the benefits of *not* working out to the extreme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6U728AZnV0
My good friend (name withheld) became very enthusiastic about Cross Fit but did not consult his physician before starting. He over-did it one day, and fortunately made it to an Emergency Room where he had a massive coronary that cut off 100% of the blood to his heart. Thanks to the good work of the hospital, he survived.
Now he does yoga at the YMCA.
I don't work out until I puke but I do push myself as hard as I can. Doing CrossFit, each workout feels like a small victory. It strengthens me mentally and physically, enabling me to try accomplish my goals outside the gym.
As far as crossfit is concerned, they are doing full body olympic lifts for high reps or until failure. Most of the people who are doing these lifts have no idea about the kinesiology or the correct body movements that are required to do a complex olympic lift. I have been training olympic lifts for 10 years and form is still of paramount importance. When going to failure, form breaks down and people get injured, especially with the poor supervision at crossfit.
Frankly, the very thought of working out makes me want to vomit.
Perhaps this topic should be renamed "Let's Talk About a Handful of Narcissists!"
Who cares?!
Let idiots be idiots…just watch where you step!
This is such a first world problem. Trying to elevate your workout regime into some kind of higher meaning is a little offensive to me.
This is gross and stupid.
A fit(ting) mascot for a buncha clowns.
Unless you're an athlete or a bodybuilder, etc., most extreme exercise is totally stupid and wasted. It won't help you later in life. Most people should START exercising in their 40's and up. It's when you get older, into your 50's, 60's, 70's, that you really need a balanced program of not-too-stenuous but effective exercise regime. Young kids and old people need exercise. People in the middle years need very little unless they eat too much and have to work some calories off.
Lactate build-up is absolute measure that your body has had as much as it can take. Macho bullsh*t as far as I am concerned. No wonder Paul Ryan likes P90X.
Sometimes I think that these types of extreme workouts is due to some type of superiority complex over people to do, say, yoga vs actual health benefits.
But! You know what's funny? For me, yoga + any amount of food means nausea and/or puking. (Examples have included a banana and baby carrots.)
