Recipe by lutzflcat
"Turn an ordinary stuffed pepper into a zesty main course suitable for a Mexican Fiesta by using chorizo and HERDEZ® Tomatillo Verde Mexican Cooking Sauce."
Watch video tips and tricks
Non-stick cooking spray
2 large red bell peppers, halved crosswise, seeds and membranes removed
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1 large clove garlic, chopped
1/4 cup minced carrots
8 ounces ground chorizo sausage
8 ounces ground beef
3/4 cup HERDEZ® Tomatilla Verde Mexican Cooking Sauce
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced fire-roasted tomatoes
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups cooked long-grain white rice
4 (1 inch) cubes Colby-Jack cheese
1/3 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
Garnishes (optional):
Sour cream
Chopped fresh cilantro
Sliced black olives
Lime wedges
I did change it up a bit though. My kids won't eat the peppers, so I chop them up small and sauté with the onions. I then put it all in a baking dish and cook like a casserole. I also could not find the herdez cooking sauce so I substituted with a salsa verde that had similar ingredients.

Know that humiliation does not weaken you -- it strengthens you.
When you have a sense of belongingness, you don't feel humiliated. The more egotistic you are, the more humiliation you feel. When you are childlike and have a greater sense of kinship then you don't feel humiliated.
When you are committed to truth and not to your ego then you also don't feel humiliated.
If you are afraid of humiliation, you can neither make progress in your material life nor in your spiritual life. When you stand above humiliation, you get closer to the Self - to God. When you are steeped in love, with the Existence, with the Divine, nothing whatsoever can humiliate you.
So, the way out of humiliation is:
Get humiliated!
Be childlike
Be crazy
Get steeped in love with the Divine
Total commitment to Truth-Knowledge

Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
We get into the discussion we were just talking about one of the most explosive moments all of wall was.
And in many places a sort of pat on the back thank you senators say he is -- kind of -- there were a couple of exchanges senator Rand Paul went up to the secretive state.
As did pry him senate are wrong Johnson listened to the exchange now went seven was -- -- say Clinton used that phrase what difference does it make.
We don't misled the -- falsely protest meant something spraying out of that and salt spring out of that.
And that was easily the two but al-Qaeda that was not the fat but -- the American people could've known that within days and ending.
They didn't know with all due respect the fact is we have four dead Americans was al-Qaeda -- protest it was a because of guys out for a walk when I decide they don't kill some Americans.
What difference at this point does it make it is our job.
To figure out what happened and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again senator.
That -- is an interesting moment that -- your attention all over off FaceBook page.
-- all -- our -- Twitter feed and all over the live chat -- keep those comments coming.
We'll get to as many of them as we -- but let some get some college papers.
From a panel -- -- I see you rolling your eyes -- that.
I had a choice of words.
Well you know it reminded me very not -- of the senior administration official in the last administration.
Both analysts -- President Bush and Dick Cheney.
Basically gave the same answer to a question about W and and the and -- that answer was so.
You know so what.
And that's what Hillary tried to do.
Today it didn't work then it's not working now it makes all the difference in the world how it happened.
Why it happened and what the administration chose to say about it -- to say it doesn't matter now because they're dead.
Means happy efforts by the congress to find out what happened to stop stonewalling from the administration.
I continue and.
So I -- -- calling -- that yeah I think it matters a great deal I disagree with Secretary Clinton I think the American public have the right to know what happened.
In a timely manner just like senator Johnson was asking.
I don't accept your argument that it doesn't matter now because their dad I just think she's trying to deflect criticism because she wants to probably run for president when -- sixteen.
She wants to get this behind her I think she basically felt he had to have a tough response yeah.
Penny what was your view of that how -- those woods that you would have advised city using it for a percentage -- committee here.
What -- -- -- -- two different things in it she said it you know what does it matter now and I was actually I think in direct response the line question that Ron Johnson was dealing and that he was questioned whether or not -- appearance.
What Susan Rice.
And you know should she have gone out there when she did in and given you know the fact that it -- the video that -- the uprising.
So that was a line of question that was I think her first emotional response that -- wind right after it -- she says.
You know what does it matter now which was meeting a little bit unfortunate -- what and -- we need to get to the bottom of this we need to find out what happened and we need to bring justice and -- to bring these people -- and deliver justice to themselves.
She was almost saying two things and it unfortunately that one phrase that's what's going to be highlighted in that very next sentence she says we need to understand what happened -- -- -- report.
-- isn't that a reasonable argument that yes.
This appalling.
Tragedy happened.
But focusing on that -- science.
Reason for -- happening at that precise time is less important now than going out that.
Getting the bad guys is that is that not a reason why -- not.
It's it's a reasonable argument but how do you.
Evaluate the proposals that have been made for improving security installations all over the world if you don't know.
How that happens I mean we must understand what happened in Ben -- because it's critical to evaluating.
The independent review panel's recommendations.
Mean -- Hillary Clinton today said.
-- it's wonderful you know we are implementing 64 of those recommendations.
By march were well on track to doing -- -- that.
We need to know whether or not they are truly responsive to the nature of the security problem.
That she acknowledged -- another thing that struck me is really interesting about her testimony.
Was at one point she was saying two contradictory things she was saying yes how core al-Qaeda has been decimated.
But she did not support the second part of the administration's line.
Which is.
In the nation's war is -- -- we are diminishing our presence because she said and I quote.
We're in this rural -- for a long term struggle here so she was kind of backing away from the notion that okay we're done with the terrorists -- challenging.
Let's move on she acknowledges that this is a huge challenge.
Which is interesting and if she -- it struck me that when I was watching this that.
Had we seen this three months ago prior to.
Early November.
It would have -- -- -- -- the president Obama's election.
Seeing that help in January 2013 JD now a lot of this was payback and I am funny 161 event -- I think so you know I wish governor Romney would have the -- -- -- and blessings these senators that.
For Secretary Clinton he might be the president right now I think that that governor Romney had a great opportunity.
For really what's the scandalous thing in this administration.
A lot of people say it's worse than Watergate -- -- fast and -- we have for American -- with the ambassador.
But yet I think that Obama was able to get off the -- they sort of just because the way.
-- he played it that Candy Crowley didn't do much favorite for governor Romney at one of the presidential debates.
But you know one thing I think it's very -- and I wish we hear more about it from his some of the Democrats -- Secretary Clinton for her role how many countries she visited do you remember when she got the other white football helmet and -- Jersey Clinton went well for her staff -- -- back and that illness.
Once you all represented the number of countries she's visiting and I -- that's important I was in the navy over to ten years I've been over -- hundred countries I think that's great however.
I'm not in charge of making sure that all our diplomatic posts are secure around the world and I think she had a misplaced set of priorities.
She's trying to be the best secretary of state ever meanwhile she -- -- her primary duties which -- to keep our.
Embassy say instead wasn't need these meetings in places like Honda and so I think that she hadn't missed -- -- of.
Perhaps -- -- it's it's interesting all of this talk of backed secretary of state Clinton as a great secretary of state tell the travel she's done.
And get me Dana Perino said to me yesterday -- bumped into in the makeup room and she's it.
Can you name any country or region that he's better off as a result of Hillary Clinton's time as secretary of state.
And -- -- it's not an easy question -- -- And we're not an easy times.
We don't I don't know what all the -- -- the conversations in which she had.
I don't know the personal relationships in which she was able to you -- on -- lean on to be able to change dialogue to be able to change the people that -- It actually -- -- people.
Sometimes there was fractions and she has a long history and has served his country -- -- And as far as you know she's only doing the testimony today because she's looking for -- -- sixteen.
That is as crass and unfounded as anything I ever heard.
This woman has spent her life -- the last four years dedicated to make sure that the 70000 people that's you know that serve.
Under her.
Are dealing with it had to be protected she understands that there were mistakes that happen and she wants to get to the -- that the notion.
Now on this one line that she say you know what does it matter now me that she's just going to dismiss the investigation she wants to get to the bottom -- she wants to understand.
Because she wants to ensure that the safety of all the diplomats that are out there brilliantly serving.
You are protected -- so I just you know I I know it's fun to be -- yelling and kind of say these things you know off off off off on and just kind of -- -- -- -- but.
I had to say knowing her and maybe I'm just may be what little bit more emotion having known her for as long as I have in knowing the dedication and which he has done.
It it's just she truly does she use all the emotion in her own testimony.
You saw that -- a point with a two -- calls and what she had to make this was deeply personal to her and he doesn't want to get the bottom of it.
Yeah I I think had nobody would argue that she was very personally affected.
By Jason we thank you for that passionate and well informed.
Defense all any problem.
I'm not defending in any way shape -- form Judy.
Was senator around poll who said you accept responsibility and -- -- -- it being President Obama I would have five.
Yes that was that's pretty enormous senatorial old club like thing to say pretty straightforward.
But not surprising.
From that channel than -- we have heard this kind of thing from him before and I think that.
Most of the people on the panel.
Did not respond that way to her mean if she is in addition to being at very able able secretary of state.
She is a consummate politician.
And I was just fascinated watching her.
Back away from everything that -- tarred her involvement in this affair if you look at what she said.
And what she didn't -- after the effect she was nowhere to be seen and today she was talking about all the positive things that they've been doing.
She was talking about.
Million dollars worth of improvements and upgrades that aren't going to happen if the money is sequestered he has where you know we're moving towards that she was.
Moving forward and she is good enough and shrewd enough.
To both start with tears and usually these senate hearings and didn't -- and she started -- it and then move to work very combative stance when she was challenged when her integrity was challenged.
It was an extraordinary performance and I'm really looking forward to this afternoon.
Yet it then that's a good point we should remind our viewers the -- -- another committee hearing.
Coming up second -- say Clinton moves to the how.
How side of Capitol Hill for the -- for a hit another hearing this afternoon and given the history.
Members in the house is Judy rightly says that may well be even more complicated -- we saw this morning.
A couple of our viewers weighing in as well I want to keep the comments coming in hopeful says for Rand Paul to attack -- the way he did was on cold full when he made the comment about 9/11.
And the topic now at hand his common -- accountability shows me that she is a remarkable woman.
Just to woods says I'd like send my condolences to the families of the brave men who didn't make it -- home.
From -- -- god bless you Pawlenty Harry says are strollers what is the government going to do they'll dump more money into those countries that hate us and want to -- us.
Let's stop sending money to all these countries and take care -- our -- That's a point that is brought up a law JD.
And it it's it gets to the half of this.
The balance of but how much we engage.
Have those who would do us -- We engage those who would protect our -- countries where we have enemies all whether we withdraw and just say okay you're -- on your own it it's a really.
Big eternal question.
It sure is you know I think this administration really had a lion -- in the way they approach the -- spring.
They were awfully behind -- so called democracy movements throughout the Middle East and now that we have the Muslim Brotherhood leading Egypt.
We have islamists in considerable positions of power.
In places like Tunisia Libya Yemen is not working out well course now in Algeria we had this up hostage crisis -- Americans died in that.
We have Molly being taken over by al-Qaeda and not at the French weren't there it probably would be taken -- al-Qaeda and it's delicate balance and I think part of the bank holding Gaza attack was part of -- -- take.
What was ambassador doing -- -- -- when he knew that it was not defensible on 9/11.
Apparently meeting with a Turkish diplomat with a Skelton.
Security group why is that and I wish us Secretary Clinton would address some of those things as well okay.
-- -- have got to get lost coming from -- -- to let you go in DC.
I guess of the flip side of the argument all being made by some is that nothing nowhere no region of the of the world is better all.
Is that we don't know how bad it might be had a second Clinton sectors say Clinton.
And President Obama not -- the policies they happens you've got just your view as we -- Jim spit really say goodbye to the secular state.
All of the last four years in diplomacy.
In thirty seconds of -- I think we have we have great challenges that are out there and -- our country is currently -- and that threat is constantly evolving and and to Judy's point.
That's why she backed away from the administration -- saying that there are still threats she knows the danger that that the world still continues to be at.
And these threats now with the technology and ability to be so mobile.
You know the kind -- can pop up in in in ways that we just didn't even know about you know it's a different way of fighting with a different way in which we have to engage and so.
You know that's they did it to the Secretary Clinton and I hope you know they confirmed secretary actors Senator Kerry quickly he has a lot on his hands.
That's special penny -- Former senior advisor to senator Harry Reid thanks so much good to see it was always penny thanks all right.

Australia's Great Barrier Reef Endangered by New Threat
Author: Nick Collins
Source: Calgary Herald
November 13, 2012
"Researchers are finding new species at unexplored depths - but the coral has a terrifying new enemy.
Two years ago, the Australian state of Queensland was hit by the worst flooding in living memory. Since then homes have been rebuilt and life on shore is back to normal. But out to sea the legacy of the deluge is yet another threat to the Great Barrier Reef, one of Earth's most important ecosystems.
The floods spewed huge quantities of agricultural fertilisers into the Pacific and as a result millions of Crown of Thorns starfish have appeared in the central reef. The huge, carnivorous echinoderms, covered in poisonous spikes and measuring half a metre across, are capable of wiping out entire reef colonies in a horrific style. By forcing their stomachs out through their mouths they can digest a section of coral the size of a cushion in one gulp."

* Sikh Temple Massacre is the Outgrowth of Pervasive White Supremacism in U.S. Military Ranks (Matt Kennard interviewed by Amy Goodman) * Terror From the Right - Southern Poverty Law Center Special Report (SPLC) ===== Sikh Temple Massacre is the Outgrowth of Pervasive White Supremacism in U.S. Military Ranks Matt Kennard interviewed by Amy Goodman Democracy Now! August 9, 2012 http://www.democracynow.org/2012/8/9/author_sikh_temple_massacre_the_outgrowth Wisconsin Sikh temple shooter Wade Michael Page was open about his neo-Nazi views when he served in the U.S. military from 1992 to 1998. We speak to journalist Matt Kennard, who details the rise of the far-right radicals in the armed forces in his forthcoming book, "Irregular Army: How the U.S. Military Recruited Neo-Nazis, Gang Members, and Criminals to Fight the War on Terror," out next month. "Every base has its problem with white supremacists because they are allowed to operate freely," Kennard says. "This is not a problem that is specific to certain bases ... it's all over the United States. It was all over Iraq and it's all over Afghanistan." AMY GOODMAN: We are talking about the killings of the Sikh Temple in Oak Creek, Wisconsin. Our guest is Pete Simi. He is a University of Nebraska at Omaha criminology professor, co-author with Robert Futrell of the book, "American Swastika: Inside the White Power Movement's Hidden Spaces of [Hate]," Joining us from Omaha, Nebraska. we're also joined by journalist Matt Kennard, author of the forthcoming book, "Irregular Army: How the U.S. Military Recruited Neo-Nazis, Gang Members, and Criminals to Fight the War on Terror." Matt is joining us from Mexico City. Matt, you have been following white supremacists in the military for some time. Can you talk about the reaction to the killings in Wisconsin, and the more you hear about the profile of Wade Michael Page? MATT KENNARD: Well, the interesting thing about Page is, you quoted that "Stars and Stripes" article which said he was completely open about his white supremacist and Neo-Nazi inclinations in the 1990's. It's important to remember that during the 1990s, this was a period after the Burmeister trauma which you mentioned, and also the bombings in Oklahoma which were carried out by Timothy McVeigh, another veteran of the First Gulf War, who was decorated with a bronze star as well. So, military in the mid-1990s was embarrassed by the fact these first the active-duty veteran had committed murder; indiscriminate murder. The narrative is that they were cracking down at this point. Now, Page's example shows this was not really the case. What is [Unintelligible] is that during the War on Terror, even the thin regulations that did exist were completely jettisoned. I spent two or three years talking to veterans, extremist veterans, much like page, and far right leaders, who basically said that there was an open-door policy during the war on terror. You could enter with swastikas tattooed on you, with S.S. boats, with, basically, - basically the military couldn't slow down because the had two occupations to populate and not enough soldiers. AMY GOODMAN: I want to ask you about the military's regulation of enlisted Neo-Nazis and white supremacists. You write about how the Army Command Policy describes the rules for commanders to enforce. It says, "Participations in extremist organizations and activities by Army personnel is inconsistent with the responsibilities of military service." Matt Kennard, can you talk about the Army's regulations? MATT KENNARD: Well, the Army's regulations, and in fact the military - the whole military, every branch - has been ambiguous on purpose, so that at times of chronic troop needs, like the War on Terror, they can basically allow these people to stay in. The regulations are basically reactive. The U.S. military, after a tragedy like in Oak Creek or the Burmeister case, they are embarrassed by the media reaction and the public who basically ask, why is our taxpayers paying to arm and train these right-wing extremists? So, the Army is on the back foot, and then they say, we have tightened the regulation. But, in reality, there is nothing proactive about it. Even the regulations that are in place, which obviously are thin, were basically completely jettisoned during the War on Terror. The quote you used about right-wing extremism being inconsistent with military service - I mean, it was completely consistent with military service during the War on Terror. In fact, I heard from extremist veterans themselves that their command would send them on the hardest missions because, obviously, Neo- Nazis, and gang members as well - which was a big problem, which is worth mentioning as well - that they are seen more as war-like. AMY GOODMAN: Talk more about this. White supremacists in places like Iraq and Afghanistan, and, unfortunately, as we have seen this past weekend, next to a Sikh temple. MATT KENNARD: Well, that is a good point that hasn't been raised enough. What did it what did it mean for the occupied populations to have this army that was riven with white supremacists who saw the people they were occupying as subhuman, as well as violent gang members? Gangs is also a massive problem which we don't hear about as much about, because often the violence committed in the United States is inter-gang violence so it doesn't affect the public. There have been spates of murders between gangs involving veterans and active duty personnel. But, for the populations in Iraq and Afghanistan, we will never know what kind of atrocities were carried out Wisconsin-style. But, I'm sure they happened. I mean, there's a few clues as to what these soldiers were doing over there. One Neo-Nazi veteran, called Kenneth Eastridge, is now serving a 10-year sentence for his part in a murder in Colorado Springs, and he was serving in Iraq with Neo-Nazi S.S. boats tattooed on his arm. [Matt Kennard, investigative journalist now based in Mexico City. His 2009 in-depth report for Salon in 2009 was titled, "Neo-Nazis are in the Army now: Why the U.S. military is ignoring its own regulations and permitting white supremacists to join its ranks." He is author of the forthcoming book, "Irregular Army: How the U.S. Military Recruited Neo-Nazis, Gang Members, and Criminals to Fight the War on Terror."] ========== Terror From the Right Southern Poverty Law Center Special Report http://www.splcenter.org/get-informed/publications/terror-from-the-right At 9:02 a.m. on April 19, 1995, a 7,000-pound truck bomb, constructed of ammonium nitrate fertilizer and nitromethane racing fuel and packed into 13 plastic barrels, ripped through the heart of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City. The explosion wrecked much of downtown Oklahoma City and killed 168 people, including 19 children in a day-care center. Another 500 were injured. Although many Americans initially suspected an attack by Middle Eastern radicals, it quickly became clear that the mass murder had actually been carried out by domestic, right-wing terrorists. The slaughter engineered by Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols, men steeped in the conspiracy theories and white- hot fury of the American radical right, marked the opening shot in a new kind of domestic political extremism - a revolutionary ideology whose practitioners do not hesitate to carry out attacks directed at entirely innocent victims, people selected essentially at random to make a political point. After Oklahoma, it was no longer sufficient for many American right-wing terrorists to strike at a target of political significance - instead, they reached for higher and higher body counts, reasoning that they had to eclipse McVeigh's attack to win attention. What follows is a detailed listing of major terrorist plots and racist rampages that have emerged from the American radical right in the years since Oklahoma City. These have included plans to bomb government buildings, banks, refineries, utilities, clinics, synagogues, mosques, memorials and bridges; to assassinate police officers, judges, politicians, civil rights figures and others; to rob banks, armored cars and other criminals; and to amass illegal machine guns, missiles, explosives and biological and chemical weapons. Each of these plots aimed to make changes in America through the use of political violence. Most contemplated the deaths of large numbers of people - in one case, as many as 30,000, or 10 times the number murdered on Sept. 11, 2001. Here are the stories of plots, conspiracies and racist rampages since 1995 - plots and violence waged against a democratic America.

From the Panhandle's home for good news and great mornings, Chef Bud Andersen's recipe for Top Secret Taters.
Ingredients:6 ea 70 ct Idaho potatoes
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp McCormick coarse black pepper
2 tsp grated parmesan cheese
2 Tblspn extra virgin olive oil
Blue Cheese Beef
1 C sliced choice sirloin
½ C quartered mushrooms
10 ea asparagus heads, blanched
1 tsp chopped garlic
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
2 Tblspn bleu cheese
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
Sesame Chicken
1 C boneless skinless chicken breast, cubed
½ C broccoli florets
¼ C mushrooms, sliced
1 Tblspn sliced almonds
2 Tblpsn chicken broth
1 tsp sesame oil
For the potatoes:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees
Mix together the extra virgin olive oil, kosher salt and coarse black pepper. On the tray you are going to bake your potatoes, pour the mixture and roll the potatoes in the oil, sprinkle with the grated parmesan cheese and bake for 1 hour or until potatoes are fork tender.
While potatoes are still warm, split in half and spoon out the meat of each half. The meat of the potato can be saved and is great for smashed potatoes or whipped potatoes. When all the halves have the meat of the potato removed set aside.
Heat over medium high heat 1 qt of canola or vegetable oil When oil is hot, carefully drop each potato half in the oil and cook until crispy and golden brown. Remove from the oil and let drain on a paper towel.
Blue Cheese Beef:
In a sauté pan, add the extra virgin olive oil and the garlic. Over medium high heat cook the garlic until it is fragrant, then add the strips of choice sirloin. Cook the sirloin until medium to medium well about 2 minutes, add mushrooms and asparagus tips and a splash of Worcestershire sauce. Let sauté until product begins to brown. Spoon out of the sauté pan in to the potato shells and top with bleu cheese. Make sure to top the grilled product with the bleu cheese right away to allow the cheese to melt.
Sesame Chicken:
In a sauté pan, over medium high heat add the extra virgin olive oil and the garlic. When the garlic becomes fragrant add your diced chicken breast and cook until done all the way through 3-4 minutes. Add the broccoli florets and mushrooms and sauté with the chicken. As the pan gets warmer and moisture begins to reduce, deglaze pan with chicken stock and add the sesame oil. Continue to sauté allowing the sesame oil and chicken stock to reduce, when all liquid is almost gone add sliced almonds and toss to mix well with the sauté. Spoon the Sesame Chicken into the potato shell as soon as the almonds have been incorporated with the dish.

in response to mbinatlanta:
Let's look at the real reason Memphis has stuggled, while Louisville has made it big time.
Most Memphis fans are SEC fans first and Memphis fans second. That is not true in Louisville. The fans support them, not the Big 10 or SEC. They know that it is good for their city.
The city of Louisville supported the university in getting their own staduim. They did not force them to play in a city owned stadium just to keep that stadium open.
Louisville had great corporate backing, Memphis has not until the last few years, and that may have come to late. The local News papar and TV stations support the city University, not the one's outside the city.
The biggest problem is the fan base that puts Memphis second. The prove is in the stands when memphis plays any SEC school. The stands are normally full of area people, with their SEC colors on.
People support winners and progress. That's why we can sell out season tickets to Tiger Basketball, and pray we get 10,000 for a football game. We live in the south, football is King. The day we build a real sustainable football program, is when you will see a change in fan/school orientation. All of these Tiger Basketball/NotreDame football Alabama Football UT Football fans, etc... will become Tiger football fans as well.

Cover Story Africa
Why a new breed of African Leadership beckons
Ripe for Change
Without a doubt, 2011 was one of the most unforgettable and momentous years in postindependence Africa.
Needless to repeat what the so-called Arab Spring begat, in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya, the results of which still reverberate over a year on. But nearly half way into 2012, a year in which Africa i s expected to become the secondfastest growing region in the world, the issue of leadership – good leadership, that is (a principle factor in the downfall of the Ben Ali, Mubarak and Gathafi governments) – could not be more paramount.
As can be seen from our coverage in the proceeding pages – and there are also a number of general elections scheduled to take place in the next six months, notably in Zimbabwe, Kenya, Ghana, Angola and Egypt – a lot has been happening and will be happening, in terms of the transfer of power on the continent. Despite the regrettable military take-overs (in Mali and Guinea Bissau, and just as the two countries were about to hold elections) and the sad passing of a leader, which has however produced Africa's second female president (in Malawi), the pragmatic consensus and lessons still being learnt for the Arab Spring indicate beyond doubt that the time is ripe for changes in African leadership.
With an estimated 60% of the African population aged under 30, Africa is not only the youngest continent in the world, but these demographics also call for a new dispensation in African leadership. What, however, should the "changing face" of African leaders be or look like?
In his book Africa: Altered States, OrdinaryMiracles, journalist Richard Dowden wrote: "Leaders do not emerge from nowhere." And as he critically asked himself: "Could it really be coincidence that all of Africa's forty-odd leaders who came to power at independence were bad rulers who took bad decisions?" The veteran journalist found his own answer explaining and admitting that not all post-independence African leaders were like that:
"Many were decent men who believed that what they were doing was the best... The new presidents inherited total power from colonial rulers, but the states they ruled were made up of old African societies, once self-governing and still held together by their own networks of power and influence. Trying to use the tools of a Western-style state to control these rooted societies was like trying to herd cats with a dog-training manual," he wrote.
Indeed as he elaborated, African independence restored power to Africans, but the countries created and the systems that the Europeans imposed on Africa as they left, were not rooted in African culture or experience and the European influence remained. Fast-forward to 2012 and this scenario still remains, but a lot has changed in Africa both politically and economically. The continent is not only getting younger and more savvy, the global world is becoming smaller and smaller.
In its upcoming issues, NewAfrican will explore the topic of "new" African leadership in this "new world order", a debate we are also throwing out to you for your participation. "Ripe for change" is the argument, and we would like to know if you agree or not that the time for a new breed of leadership in Africa beckons more today than ever before.
As once popularised by former US president Bill Clinton, who wanted the proponents to devote themselves to "democracy and economic reforms", the term "new generation of African leaders" is truly back in fashion.
Our cover stories in this edition, on what is happening in Kenya, Malawi, Senegal, and Mali (the news on Guinea Bissau came as we went to press), as well as the never-dying media fixation of relating rumoured "deaths" (there have been quite a few) of Zimbabwean president Robert Mugabe (and a leadership succession battle), are clear indications that the debate on leadership, like the muchtalked about need for change, is also ripe. Let the debate begin.

eBay Today: Cool New Tommervik Painting
Posted by D_Martin on
April 6, 2012
at 03:57 AM CST
The first thing you have to do when looking at
the auctions of surreal artist Tommervik
is disregard the Buy It Now prices. We've seen these paintings sell with Best Offers of as little as $100 (and who knows if offers of less would be accepted), and for one of a kind
Star Wars
art that often doesn't look like
Star Wars
art to the casual observer, you really can't beat them. While the one linked above certainly does stand out as
Star Wars
art we couldn't help but showing it to you.

What would be some good exercises to develop more power in a Wing Chun chain punch? Is it as simple as working on my triceps?
When developing any technique, there are pairs of muscles that must work together. In the case of punching, and this kind of a punch, your recoil from the punch is just as important for absorbing the impact as the actual delivery itself. To practice the punch, start with the technique in open space and focus on delivering the energy of the punch to the same open space target with accuracy and speed and retracting to the same starting point with the same degree of accuracy and speed. Be aware of your breathing and how much breath you need on each move so that you become aware of your requirements for oxygen on each delivery and how long it takes to recover from each one. After your accuracy in delivering the technique improves, then increase the rate at which you can deliver the blows with either hand. For example, develop a routine for punches and breathing that allows you to work up 2 successive punches with right, then left then both hands, then break and then repeat. Work this up to 5, then 10 and then 20 and then 50, etc. Even without training your muscle groups, a routine such as this will train the various muscle groups without straining them, so that they work together as you hone the technique. Then apply resistance to your punches by either holding a lightly weighted 'weight' or holding them on your wrists. Make sure they are secure and don't move or rub. I recommend holding a weighted implement with the weight either side of your fist so your technique can remain as true as possible. Remember to keep both the delivery and the recoil together in your technique. When working with resistance weights, remember to start your routine from the bottom up, such as 1 punch at a time, then 2, then 5 etc, or you risk causing painful damage to muscles, ligaments or tendons that are not trained to handle the load yet. With most training of your body, start with technique, accuracy, speed and then resistance. You will always, then, be working with your body and not making your body work with something else. | |||||
While not what most would think of as a "weight lifting" exercise (body weight rather than external weights), push-ups on your fists will help with Wing Chun punches as it promotes strong wrists and forearms (along with the standard push-up muscles). In order to train for the explosiveness of the punch you can practice these push-ups with an explosive movement when pressing upwards. Later on, add more weight via the use of a weight vest. Don't go overboard with developing muscles for this punch as it is more quick and explosive than slow and about the application of brute strength. Additionally as a Wing Chun punch is vertical and is usually delivered with no recoil before the punch core and hip muscle development will help as power and support for the punch come from low in the body. | |||
IMO no; just tris isn't be enough--it's basically a press (at a weird angle), which involves shoulders, tris, chest, and core. When I was studying I really enjoyed isometrics against a wall, at various extensions. Isometrics give you a chance to check your alignment, posture, and rooting and the same time. Cable punches, or various "pressing" machines you can stand and use, are the best equipment. I don't like the cables, much, because (a) they're pulling you back, which is different, and (b) there's a cable. | |||||
Some people are warning about weightlifting slowing you down. This is only true in a limited sense: High repetitions with moderate weight will build more slow-twitch muscle. Powerlifting workouts--high weight, with low repetitions and longer breaks between sets--build fast-twitch muscle. You can actually assess your ratio of fast-twitch to slow-twitch muscle using weights. With that said, building fast-twitch muscle can help, but you will only punch well if you practice punching well. Do it a lot, with someone checking your form. | |||
Use light weights to build arms, shoulders and back, not huge but just so you build power. Do a lot of core strength exercises as everything is driven from your core. (planking, static stance training, etc) And then punch the three sectioned wall bags and punching bags as fast as you can, focusing firstly on correct techniques and secondly on speed. You will end up with good solid strikes. Yes speed is important, but without power a fast strike will be meaningless, so we want to train speed and power. | |||
It is not actually about where the punch ends up or in fact what style, or type of punch you use. When you are talking about a very rapid series of punches, or indeed a constant circular flow of punches (CHAIN), or perhaps just a few effective punches in a row, it may seem wise to maybe look at where the punch comes from (chamber/ or simply anywhere !!!!). I trained once with a traditional Okinowan player, who was very serious, and trained very hard with the Makiwara. Impressive...with the strength and power of his strikes...But he seemed to me to be SO S..L..O..W..!!!! Observation of his technique showed that he was OBSESSIVELY focused on the target (Makiwara)....Ahhh....FOCUS !!!! Upon being invited to "ave a go" he looked at my soft hands and stated that I shouldn't 'whack' the Makiwara too hard in case I damaged my hand !!!! Needless to say I adopted an appropriate delivery stance (stood relaxed in front of the thing), Looked at my starting position and proceeded to 'whack' the crap out of the Makiwara !!!! I didn't look at it once, hit it many times in rapid succession - and BROKE the bloody thing !!!! LOL. After my mate settled down a bit... I explained that it wasn't how big and strong the punches were..it was all about how quick I could get my fist back to the starting point so that I could unleash hell upon it once more. My SOFT hands were not even red, or damaged !!!! The starting and ending point were only in fact momentary 'blips' in a CHAIN of motion that was never ending. Think of the 'MOBIUS STRIP' a constantly flowing, forward moving cycle. In the 'Siniwali' systems you may appear to go backwards at times, but in fact you forward motion never actually stops. Ponder if you will. Straighten the circle and curve the straight. SIMPLE> | |||
This technique is not about power, it's about speed! You shall try to deliver punches as fast as possible. I think some of the body-building excercises can actually slow your hands down. Also remember that the explosive strength is not what you train in e.g. in bench press - this is a static power. For chain punch technique, I think it is best to train your hands to be flash fast and "strike-strong" (i.e. explosively), e.g. by practicing with weapons like jo or nunchaku. Remember that this technique is not for 1 strong KO strike. Also watch this: | |||||

Place your bets...
I. When does it happen?
II. Does he once again pretend he's in talks with people about things?
III. What's the reason he makes up for "walking away"?
IV. Does he pretend he was being offered a raise?
I : I assume he will talk about it when the next season starts. By that NBC will surely have announced who the judges are.
II : Of course! His agent will keep planting stories in the press
III : The schedule is too much for me. I want to concentrate on this show.
IIII : This again is an easy one. Of course he will pretend that NBC offered him more money.
If Howard does not come back, NBC will look so bad. Especially when you consider they moved the show to NYC for him!
Since these days he's fully subscribed himself to the Marci Turk Power Of Silence™ approach to conflict and negativity avoidance, I'd lay money he simply doesn't talk about it, just like he stays silent on the ratings as they've been swirling the drain.
And if he does open his yap it'll be a lot of nervous, lesbian-like banter about how the "grueling schedule" was taking too much out of him and he felt if he went on for another season then the "radio show might have started to suffer".
He really should just impale himself on one of those fist dildos for all the good he's done the suckers that bought into the sirius scheme and still pay a subscription fee every month. You factor that he allegedly had them move the show to new york so he could "keep his schedule", only to turn around and take days off anyway and bitch that he's got to GO ACROSS TOWN. He's tragic.

Given Howard's new penchant for starting new fires while trying to douse current ones, and the fact that the fragility and size of his ego has reached epic proportions, I think the lie around NBC not re-signing him will be a whopper. Something along the lines of..................
"NBC is begging me to run the network; I CAN'T DO BOTH!!!"............................this is if he wants to go "victim of his own "success""-Howard
"Clooney wants me to direct a film he's producing"
""Sports Illustrated" is asking me to shoot their swimsuit calendar"
buddy movie with Jim Carrey
Jay-Z collab
You get the picture.
He should hire a professional lie-teller/keep-straightener.
No FUCKING WAY this is going to happen.
When it's over, it'll be Howard's decision, whether it's Howard decision or not.
No way is he going to say NBC didn't re-sign me.
But -- and I'm being honest here -- I don't see NBC ever dumping Howard.
Despite him not giving AGT a ratings boost, I think the Peacock likes the aura of having somebody like Stern on the show. I mean, it gives the show an angle, a danger -- whether he actually provides that or not.

Army of Pepito!
You know Robin, all I wanted to do is judge.
Howard is going to claim NBC begged him to come back, but he owed it to his fans to dedicate all his time to the radio show. The radio show is his first love and he just can't do both anymore. I agree with the sentiment that Howard is going to spin it as his decision.
I agree with what is said in the thread. There is a 50/50 chance that he just doesn't talk about it at all. It is one of the "verboten" topics, to go along with the other 50.
Right now he's dead silent about the show getting SERIES LOW ratings and viewer numbers and repeatedly losing throughout the week to stuff like Under the Dome and Duck Dynasty.
That, or he just lies his ass off.
1. They wanted me back (lie)
2. They offered me a pay raise (like Howard would turn down marbles)
3. "What can I say? I gave it up for the show! Just like chess, I gave AGT up for the show.
What a mensch I am. The show comes first, Robin! I cherish your blithering on ISDN lines."
No way can Howard just say nothing. AGT is too big of a part of the show. He will have to acknowledge it in some way. He will go the spin route.
Also, Howard addresses it pretty quickly after the season is over. NBC will probably clean house after the ratings this season and Howard wants to get his BS story before NBC let's it known that they didn't want any of the judges back. Also, look for him to say after they clean house that NBC wanted to build the show around him making him the primary judge.

Maybe a spin-off of this thread would be":
"Excuses Howard would NEVER Make If NBC Shit-Cans Him"
"No more overnight travel as I need to keep a closer eye on my wife's wandering one"
"NBC actually wanted me to work harder/skate less to the point where it interferes with my leisure time"
"The network claimed the ratings decline didn't justify what they were paying me, let alone what I demanded and deserved on a new contract "
"This whole AGT thing has really disrupted my Porky's remake. I need to concentrate on that."
Tim was never a big part of the on air show. It is easy to ignore the fact that Robin isn't physically in the studio since she still is there via ISDN. Howard did address Artie by saying he would not talk about him for respect to him and his family. He acknowledged the whole situation, but used the "respect for the family and their privacy" excuse to go into any details.
Howard has to address AGT. NBC is most likely going to clean house. If he doesn't give his own BS spin that he turned down NBC for another year, it is going to be spun in the media that he was fired and that he was a failure. Howard always addresses these type of things because he always has to spin every public failure into a success.
Like his CBS Saturday night show. It wasn't that it was a failure. In fact, "it was #1 in every market it was on and beating SNL". It was because the affiliates are chickens and were afraid to air his content.

October he'll start hinting about NBC wanting an answer, offering big things...
January He'll say that he owes it to his radio fans to step away from AGT as all that running around was just too much when all he wanted to do was be america's judge.
The above statement is being made of my own free will. This site neither condones nor agrees to anything I post but for my right to post what I feel.
I might agree with you, but I think NBC will force Howard to speed up the timeline If other shows are any indicator (like Idol and X-Factor), NBC is going to be quick to throw the current judges under the bus for the low ratings and announce that they are blowing things up and going younger and hipper with their judges. Howard won't be able to drag this thing out into next year.
I personally think Howard will announce soon after the current season of AGT ends that, despite NBC's hard court press to re-sign him and even giving him extra perks to stay like a primetime development deal, he is going to pass on a third year. He needs to keep ahead of NBC for the spin of why he is leaving the show. NBC isn't going to put their search for a new judge on hold while Howard pulls off the long con on why he is leaving the show.

CAMILLUS -- People got a behind the scenes look at a controversial plan in Camillus Wednesday night. The Department of Environmental Conservation and Honeywell held a public tour of Wastebed 13. About half a dozen people took part.
Part of the Onondaga Lake cleanup plan includes dumping contaminated sediment from the lake into Wastebed 13. A pipeline will bring sediment from the lake to the field.
Neighbors fought against the proposal for months, saying the sediment would be dangerous to the area. Recently, the Environmental Protection Agency ruled sediment from the lake is safe for people living near Wastebed 15.
The DEC says the lake dredging project will start in May of 2012. When the dredging is done five years later, the DEC says Wastebed 13 is safe enough to even become a park, with trails or recreational fields.
Construction at Wastebed 13 will start in August to get ready for the dredging project.

STUDIO CITY - Du-Par's Restaurant in Studio City, which is normally open 24 hours a day, was closed today because of a fire left a male worker with smoke inhalation and damaged the kitchen and an office.
A total of 51 firefighters responded to the blaze at the restaurant at 12036 Ventura Blvd., near Laurel Canyon Boulevard, said Brian Humphrey of the Los Angeles Fire Department. The fire, which was reported at 10:57 p.m. Tuesday, was knocked down in 18 minutes, Humphrey said. The injured worker was taken to a hospital in good condition, Humphrey said. A news photographer at the scene said the patient identified himself as the restaurant manager.
The fire burned mostly in an outside storage area in the rear of the restaurant, but smoke also damaged the inside, including an upstairs office, Humphrey said.
Damage was also done to the restaurant's kitchen, the photographer reported.
The restaurant will remain closed pending a health department inspection, Humphrey said.

Friendly, rural, Mayberry-style marathon. I'm starting to like these smaller races more. They're more affordable, and they have a quaintness you don't get in the big guys. This one was on Saturday and raised proceeds for a local non-profit to fight crime. But Waushara County seems a quiet farm community, and a lot of the farmers are Amish, so... what crime?! There were only 70 participants for the full marathon, and it felt really weird standing in the front of the pack at the start. A local woman with a really sweet voice sang the national anthem. Then there was a nod to the Boston Marathon bombing victims. Also a Christian prayer, which was unusual, but I guess no big deal for Waushara County. The course was on rural roads through piney woods, small ponds and marshes, farmland. The day was very hot, and some of the non-shady stretches proved grueling. Water, Gatorade and gel stops every two miles. At mile 22 a pickup truck glided close and a big hand held out a full bottle of cold water, which I really needed at that point. The finish area was at a barn at the county fairgrounds and featured hot shredded roast beef or turkey sandwiches, potato salad, corn, soda. Great long-sleeved tech shirt and finishers medal (the ribbon is prison-garb black-and-white stripes!). The only drawbacks were minimal spectators and some lonely stretches of road. On the bright side, it's nice to occasionally run a peaceful race. I think I was the only out-of-stater, but I befriended some 'Wisconsonians' during the race - Mel, Bill, Andy, and Jessica - and they made it much more enjoyable than it otherwise might have been. Thanks to everyone for a pleasant time. Wisconsin's a beautiful state, so I plan to return once I conclude my 50-state quest!
Of my 9 marathons so far, this was definitely one of my favorites! Even though there were less than 50 full-marathon finishers, the volunteers at the aide stations were enthusiastic and wonderful (while standing in the rain) - what more can you ask for really??! One-loop well-marked course with highly-visible personnel at all turns, Cytomax and Gu available frequently on the course, great swag (tech shirt, medal, water bottle and cinch-bag)... and a shiny new PR! It was a pretty great day! I will be back! Thanks!!
This is a very well done event. It is a small event, but worth coming. AWESOME finish line food! So few marathons have good protein at the finish, so the succulent shredded hot beef and turkey sandwiches hit the spot. Nice aid stations, gu at most of them starting at mile 6 or so. Quality t-shirt, decent medal, beautiful Amish Countryside. The only complaint I would have would be the camber of the roads, but the roads were so quiet that this is the only race I've done that I felt very safe running toward the middle of the road.
If you love small marathons in rural settings you'll love this race. There are some nice small things that I really enjoyed about this race. Prior to the race several police and ems vehicles were there with sirens and lights flashing which I thought was a nice touch. One of the people who was going to run the marathon sang the national anthem, which I always think is cool. Course is entirely in the country and has what I would call rolling hills which are tough but not too tough. Nice to get out in the open country and enjoy all the smells good and bad. Even saw a few amish buggies go rolling by during the race! Course has 11ish water stations, I think each one of them had gu, gaterade and water. People and support staff at each of the stations were very encouraging and helpful!! Post race meal isn't amazing but is satisfactory. Weather was also just about perfect, if it hadn't rained. Bottomline, this is not Chicago or Boston, or New York but if you want a nice small race, where any proceeds go to a good cause I would recommend this race.
I ran this race as part of my quest to run a half marathon in all 50 states. What a wonderful race. The course was beautiful, well organized, aid stations every 3 miles, cool weather, mostly flat and well marked course. The medal and tech shirt were very nice, especially since it is such a small race. The volunteers were so kind, supportive and thanked the runners for coming out. Heck, even the traffic control police officers would thank you for running. The marathon leader even offered words of encouragement as he passed me on the course. Unheard of. I highly recommend anyone considering this race to sign up and do it. It beats any large race hands down!
This is an ideal marathon for a PR and a 50-stater. Gentle, rolling hills; perfect weather; great organization; early start; 1-loop course; and small field. In addition, I got a great shirt, medal and hot meal afterward. The race director is right there to answer questions, volunteers were so friendly, and aid stations were well stocked (although there were only 8 stations). My advice: bring some of your own fuel, enjoy the scenery, and run this race.
The cool weather is great for a fast time. The course has some rolling parts, which help to vary your stride and speed to keep your legs fresh. Hills were never steep or long. The first two-thirds of the course runs through wind-breaking evergreen forests and the rest has some Amish farm areas. Green and beautiful with cranes calling. No spectators except hard-working, friendly folks at the stations. All miles marked with straw bales you can't miss. Only 8 rest stops, but it was 50 degrees and breezy, and most stops had energy gel, water, and sports drink. Very efficient organization, great meal, and awards were even given ahead of scheduled time. Only 36 marathoners, the little traffic and few spectators made it great to be able to focus and concentrate on the actual running of the race. No jostling or elbowing or worrying about speeding traffic - just a few horse droppings. This is not a mega-event marathon, but a great little race.
I ran the inaugural last year, and they did an awesome job on it. Great hot food after the race. Nice staff. A good, long, country run. Proceeds go to Crime Stoppers. Hopefully the weather is better this year. Anyway, this was a very cool marathon that I plan on returning to. Do some hill work, but it's not too bad.

All our many peoples have had to fight since the first Europeans set foot on our lands hundreds of years ago. We fight to keep our lands, to let us be who we are, speak our languages, teach our children as we believe & on & on I could go.
We are always having to fight for something we believe in & that grows tiring, but brothers & sisters far & wide, if we stop we will have not one inch of land or water to worship the Creator on! What we need is our causes heard by those who can actually get the changes we need to happen.
We need the media on our side, people of influence to listen & believe what we have to say is so & we need our own peoples to help encourage us in any way they can. The alternative is not acceptable. Our demise.
We need our wise ones to pray, our peoples to pray & our own families to pray to the Creator to help us all each day. The Creator CAN make changes happen! That is all I have to say on this matter.
