Football – or soccer, as many of us call it – is the most widely played sport in South Africa. What people love about it is the pace, the rhythm, the commitment. The most obvious sign of this play is the number of goals. The vuvuzela is here to stay and, in the interests of people, it has to be a good thing. Every World Cup needs its distinguishing features. And really, they’re not that bad.
From zeenews.com:
It is time for FIFA to introspect what the World Cup really means? Is it only a tournament of 32 teams or something else? Why was it decided to give this World Cup to Africa? According to my experience, World Cup football is perhaps the greatest carnival under the sun, where people from all over the world over unite with spontaneous burst of emotions and spirit, irrespective of their different backgrounds.
This was the first World Cup on African soil and came with a promise to be an exceptional show. At the same time South Africa had a point to prove that they were capable of hosting such a big event successfully, which they have indeed done, but World Cup 2010 turned out to be a simple competition, not a spectacular carnival. One reason for this might be that the Africans are too impulsive or in South Africa, fear prevailed over the joy. All the emotions of South Africans vanished soon after the exit of “Bafana Bafana”, and after the departure of Ghana, they simply detached themselves from the tournament. Some excitement would have still been there, if Latin American giants Brazil and Argentina could have made it to the semi finals. Two-third of the football fans who gathered in South Africa were from these two countries and from Mexico, another Latin American outfit. Since their departure, World Cup is looking forward to a scheduled completion, without much galore and glory. In Cape Town, the picture perfect city and the host of first semifinal, I found it really difficult to get around. One could not understand anything unless someone provided information, but the people around seem to be least bothered.
Perhaps, FIFA thought that the first ever World Cup in Africa would boost the development of soccer in this continent. But they should have taken into account that in a country like South Africa, where law and order is always an area of concern with an undercurrent of xenophobia, might affect the spirit of the game.
So the expected jubilation of the football fans from different countries was missing. Even before the semifinal, one could hardly find colourful supporters around. And the much spoken about ‘Vuvuzela’ orchestra ceased to resound, turning to silence with the exit of the host country.
I am in search for the known faces of the World Cup. Can someone help?
Football seems to suffer from poor attendances but there are still grounds for regarding it as one of the most exciting games. What can we do to encourage more people to support their national teams?

Statistics show that short people find it difficult to get elected to public office, find a mate, and make less money. A new study has some more bad news for short people.
According to an analysis published in the European Heart Journal, shortest short people (men under 5 feet 5 inches and women fewer than 5 feet) are roughly 50 percent more likely to have a heart attack or die from heart complications when compared to the tallest people.
From Edition.cnn.com:
A new study suggests that it gets worse: The shortest short people — men under 5 feet 5 inches and women under 5 feet — are roughly 50 percent more likely than the tallest people to have a heart attack or die from heart disease, according to an analysis published in the European Heart Journal.
Why? Probably due to a combination of underlying factors that contribute to both short stature and poor heart health, such as age, the researchers say.
“Older people are shorter,” the lead author of the study, Tuula Paajanen, MD, a researcher at the University of Tampere, in Finland, points out in an e-mail. “Also, you have to remember that height is at least a combination of genetics, socioeconomic status, and nutritional factors. So when using height we are also thinking about some confounding factors.”
Paajanen and her colleagues analyzed data from 52 high-quality studies that included more than 3 million people. Hundreds of studies dating back to 1951 have explored the link between short height and heart disease, but this is the first systematic review and analysis of all the good studies on the subject.
Michael Lauer, MD, the director of the division of cardiovascular sciences at the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, however said that the findings are hardly any proof that people with short height are more prone to heart diseases.

India had launched the medical missions in Kabul. The attacks in Kabul had claimed the lives of nine Indians including a doctor and the operation was a failure due to lack of staff and security.
Indian medical mission was treating over 3 lakhs patients in Afghanistan, mostly women and children. They were giving free treatment as well as medicines to the patients.
From Timesofindia.com:
KABUL: India is set to resume its much-acclaimed medical mission work in Afghanistan which was scaled down following the terror attack in Kabul early this year that left nine Indians dead, senior officials said here on Tuesday.
“There is no scaling back. We are in the process of resuming full-fledged operations in Afghanistan,” a senior Indian official said.
India launched the medical missions in Afghanistan in 2001-2002 and was operating five such missions in Kabul, Herat, Kandahar, Jalalabad and Mazar-e-Sharif.
Though the Mazar-e-Sharif medical mission is functioning normally, the other four missions spread around the war-torn Afghanistan were temporarily suspended, the officials said.
The operation of the Indian medical mission at Kabul was suspended temporarily as the required staff and security was not available after the February 26 coordinated suicide attacks by Taliban at two hotels in Kabul that killed nine Indians, including two Major rank Army officers.
Of the 11-member medical team, one of the six doctors was killed in the attack and others injured.
The medical missions in Kabul and Kandahar are expected to resume full-fledged operations soon, the sources said.
“We are putting in extra security measures to ensure that our operations are not hampered in future,” an Indian embassy official here said.
The Indian medical mission in Afghanistan has treated over 3 lakh patients, mostly women and children so far. The patients were given free treatment as well as medicines.
During external affairs minister S M Krishna’s talks with Afghan national security advisor Rangin Dadfar Spanta here on Monday, the issue of security for Indian nationals working in the country figured prominently.
Krishna sensitised the Afghan government on the Indian government’s concern over security for its nationals in Afghanistan and sought adequate security for them.
Spanta assured Krishna that the afghan government would take whatever steps it could to ensure that the “Indian guests” who have been doing impressive work in Afghanistan would be given adequate protection.
Nine years after US-led troops toppled their government, the Taliban have made a comeback and have inflicted heavy losses on foreign forces and has attacked foreign aid workers in the country.
The Taliban have repeatedly turned down past peace overtures from the Afghan government, saying they group will engage in peace talks only when all of the 140,000 foreign troops leave Afghanistan.
We hope that medical missions in Kabul and Kandahar will reassume soon with extra security measures to make sure that the operations are not hampered in the future.

A proper physical therapy is needed to those who have injured themselves while playing.
All physical exercises give damage or hurt to the body if not executed properly. Preventive or rehabilitative measures should be done to minimize sports injuries. You can include safe practices for exercising; wear right equipment and appropriate clothing and shoes. Awareness of proper diet and hygiene should be maintained for those who are undergoing strict sports regimen. For a sports person it is essential to stay physically fit.
Sports professionals undergo strenuous workouts which might lead to injuries. Physical therapists are employed to provide therapies for sports people for recovery. One should never neglect a small injury occurred while playing, cause it can cause problems later.
A physical therapist is the best to consult at this time. He will be the best guide to a sports person for right exercise and faster recovery. Once a surgery or treatment is undergone by the injured person he/she should still prefer a consultation with a therapist. The physical therapist is good at muscoskeletal anatomy and can brief you best on proper exercise after the treatment.
Researchers have also studied that along with perfect physical health you also need to work on the mental health. It is proved that with strong mind and mental state the bones heal faster.

Los Angeles based billionaire James Otis is putting blood report of Mahatma Gandhi for auction within a week. The report contains hemoglobin level, blood color index, and red blood cell count of Mahatma as recorded ten days before his assassination by Nathu Ram Godse.
Otis is expected to use money raised from the auction to fund the non-violent overthrow of the dictatorial regimes of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Nicaragua.
From in.news.yahoo.com:
A yellowed sheet of paper containing the results of a blood test conducted on the Mahatma on January 21, 1948, at Irwin Hospital (now known as the LNJP Hospital) lies in a bank locker owned by Otis, who is a descendant of the man who invented the elevator.
Otis last made headlines in March 2009 when he put up for auction Gandhi’s iconic spectacles and Zenith pocket watch dating back to 1910, for which liquor baron Vijay Mallya coughed up $ 1.8 million ( Rs 9.3 crore at rates prevailing last year).
With the money Otis raises from the present auction, he says he will fund the non-violent overthrow of the dictatorial regimes of El Salvador, Guatemala and Nicaragua.
The announcement by the maverick art collector and documentary filmmaker was met with predictable anger by the more vocal descendants of the Mahatma.
Tara Gandhi Bhattacharjee, vicechairperson of the Gandhi Smriti and Darshan Samiti and Kasturba Gandhi National Memorial Trust, says, “The blood report is a personal document. I really don’t know how to react to this. Otis says he is very wealthy. If so, why doesn’t he use his own money to fund non- violent struggles, instead of resorting to such auctions?” The place for the blood reports, says Bhattacharjee, is a museum and not an auction. But the Mahatma’s great-grandson, Tushar Gandhi, says he couldn’t be bothered about the auction.
Tara Gandhi Bhattacharjee, vicechairperson of the Gandhi Smriti and Darshan Samiti and Kasturba Gandhi National Memorial Trust, said Otis is expected to keep auctioning valuable items belonging to Mahatma Gandhi.
