Problem: he refused to play with.

Maybe he knows something we do not.

They wheel him in one day, octagonal, pants, and white hair, it does not require any re-dye. He said he would be a major obstacle, compared with shooting him 5-1 in the UFC 132 对 Ryan Bader on Saturday night that he will increase the mix to smaller rival Walker.

Then, it may kick you know what is the man, a few nurses to help him on the ground, so that he can perform in front of tapioca pudding, and engraver, and won his grave to celebrate.

Dana White said many times that Ortiz was the best with his back to the wall, but the UFC president can not even imagine that the best kind. Ortiz is the fight in the garden of the MGM Grand in his career, and provide a response in the first round 01:56 Bedford.

Somewhere, hold the person with the name Ortiz and smile lottery bet from here is closer to the ATM.

"To dig, baby," said Ortiz win, and win on the night of viewing. "Lift."

This is impressive because it is shocking, to catch up with Ortiz and the right hand before the onslaught of cold to apply a guillotine choke. How ironic. The struggle of walking Ortiz to build the entire development of upright stature, and the suspension of the blade finally hit a career, to help achieve the UFC in the popularity enjoyed by the current day.

Will be executed life fighting for him to wait for the night. This was echoed by the man who had successfully defended the title five times a light heavyweight in life, breathe and climb to the top of the head of thousands of his name once again all directions.

Ortiz is a sport for many years and the face, and the people who help develop and build a globally recognized from the unknown to the UFC. Sitting in the crowd Saturday night, Liddell and Randy choose fashion, that is associated with Ortiz, to create and develop success in football.

Three of the tournament. Ortiz of the Saturday night life remains.Tito support his career off to a guillotine choke in the first round of UFC 132 young gun Ryan Bader.

In the wake of the victory of MGM Arena in Las Vegas Granden, and called out that he would like Ortiz exuberant octagonal face the next appearance of the familiar enemy. Although he said: "The Huntington Beach Bad Boy" also like Rashad Evans shot at redemption in the upcoming battles Ortiz, first with another former winner: Forrest Griffin.

"I give [UFC President] Dana [White] was an opportunity to find someone hit me and it did not succeed [and] said Bader," in an interview with UFC.com postfight Ortiz. "So, I think I have the first man beat Forrest Griffin, one of my lens [the judge] gave him a split decision, even gave me a chance."

There are two types of fighting light heavyweight, each person has a split decision win in the competition.

Although Ortiz may lead to victory, his opponent for his next Badr few minutes, and few observers believe that the opportunity to Badr Ortiz, before the game. At UFC President said that if the former UFC 132 Ortiz will lose, he might be out of work. To his credit, however, the former world champion to pass, and the most important thing. Fighter that made positive changes, environment and training, and improved general health status and contribute significantly to the victory over the cold.

" iron Renaissance, and I can not hurt and I'm healthy and I have a training camp great and I'm at home, and this is the first time in 11 years, and I did not go the bear I think it's mental focus and helped a lot really," said Ortiz. "I have a personal problem with my family a lot, and I'm very active and the people around you who raised me and showed me the true champion I am really focused."

Left a one-time fighter light heavyweight division and, more importantly, Ortiz fought in the past five years, not only because of 01/04/2010 choked in 2006, won the Saturday night before the battle. However, it management, along with all the fighters on the Stadium Park MGM Grand, and the support he received from his mentor, a by-product.

"He said every day, [my coach] Jason Parillo I think I told you I do not understand this game of MMA, which is very spiritual," Ortiz. "[Introduce] a true hero, and I - [fighter] who put the fighter [small] based at UFC tonight and I work hard and shows that"

Ortiz was able to close the distance early in the round of Bedford, for the promotion of land in the grip of a strong wrestler sweet in its own right. Bedford pounced Ortiz hit once on the canvas, and he did not let up the fighting ended. Although Ortiz was held in the throttle a little too long, because the referee stopped the match, the soldiers said he was a simple display of raw emotion, instead of bad sportsmanship on purpose.

"I saw his legs buckle, and when I see that [I know] this is my chance and I hit him, one after the other, and then landed two] elbow, and said:" Ortiz. "I believe I am sunk in the guillotine, and when I went to Los Angeles Houwei, elbow and I tighten my grip and I was dry stone, because I do not sweat it right, he wants to withdraw his head, and when I sank it.

"He's digging, and I think he has to pull his head in. This is why I held for a period of time, and I probably should not do that, but just do not want to lose the passion."

Children are dying due to poverty and hunger

More than 22,000 children die every day all over the world.


The silent killers are poverty, hunger, and diseases that are easily preventable diseases, and other reasons relevant. Although this disaster daily / ongoing in size, and they rarely managed to achieve, not to mention the continuation, in peak time, the title.
UNICEF, the world's leading children's organization, part of the United Nations:




Pain and loss of normal life for the continued violation of human instinct to help in the event of a disaster. Just think, if the earthquake was the largest in the world that terrorism is happening, and people did not stop to help the survivors of the watch! But one day of the massacre of more than 30,000 young children in the earthquake response is equivalent to silence annoying. They die quietly, away from the poorest on Earth observation and the removal of the conscience of the world village, and then some. As thin and weak in life, and these people are dying and the death of more intangible. Unfortunately, it seems that the world may not notice. This may be reasonable to expect death and tragedy on this scale should be the main time news. However, these problems only surface when the global conferences or concerts (such as a variety of Group of Eight summit, and make poverty history in 2005, sports, etc.). In addition, year after year, we see that when the end of the meeting, event, so there is no coverage by the mainstream media.


I feel even if some media attention, and those who do not suffer the report, which had the power, but he is a celebrity and news values, so that the leaders of rich countries to the problem of work.

Even in the mainstream media and rarely any of the rich countries that are part of the problem. International politics, and the current form of globalization, rich countries affect rarely show the effects of these processes.

In contrast, the commitment, the country's rich and powerful, and corruption, the poor, who get rich on the good will obviously open, and headlines; a series of repeated promises to do additional unfair, low quality and quantity of aid and the conditions are not.

And often little accountability of recipient countries, as they relate to the current. The role of accountability, such as the World Bank and International Monetary Fund and its funders (wealthy / powerful countries), international agencies, but rarely. The danger is that citizens in these countries get to create a misleading impression, and take appropriate action to be taken in the name of a false sense of security.

This may be harsh to say that the mainstream media is one of the many reasons of poverty, therefore, but the problem is, its influence is enormous. Silence and noise, and can produce results for both. When it was originally written this page, the top of the BBC's prime-time television in Portugal on the British children abducted. There is no doubt that this tragic story in the report, but why, the BBC and other media reports, British and proud of their outstanding international media, not the headlines every day millions of difficulties for children?

Another tragedy recently named Prime Minister and media coverage at the time the last day of shooting on the campus of Virginia Tech University in the United States. Responded to the BBC the lens in the media, and criticized the media coverage of the BBC of reasons for this ongoing, compared with more deaths per day in Iraq and got the return just a few minutes to ask, and it happens every day in Iraq. See the point of view of the media to follow up the shooting at Virginia Tech. Some people worry that appear in these sad stories all the time to listen to fatigue, or will develop advertising and media companies to pressure, and even buy a little more than just entertainment or emotions affect the good news.

There is bad news only? Despite the tragedy, and there is a certain degree of progress, and this may increase the interest of public opinion, will encourage further efforts in these areas, and to shed light on the important issues of relevance.

However, the tragedy in Iraq, and the sad news, but still do not receive the title of the ordinary.

We are concerned, connected to the same news every day, and the lack of excitement, will lead to a decline in television ratings, which may have different consequences, especially in advertising.

Finally, what if people want to hear such cases the unfortunate news. In all the media that this is what viewers want. However, it is difficult to know what they do or do not want to see if an alternative was never an option. If the size of the pain is difficult to continue coverage to the public how to determine if they were ready to watch or not? Estimates for Iraq, the Johns Hopkins study (published in the Lancet) 400 000 950 000 even found that the invasion of Iraq since 2003 (about 655,000 average) had died. 18 divided by 22,156,400,000 particular, given 22,156,950,000 42.9.

By the way, the rejection of George Bush and many other of the Lancet study lacks credibility, and the use of methods to discredit, but the use of statistics, Iraq Body Count (in 30000, although it said at present about 66 000).

Whether to use statistics from Iraq Body Count, then the number of days that children died after the match the number of deaths in Iraq in 2003, only two or three days. And often criticized the Iraq Body Count statistics because they are in the media, a thorough review by the U.S. administration in Iraq rely on. However, it provides a study of Johns Hopkins University and criticized (often referred to as the Lancet study, which was published).

The study's authors point out that this is the method they use to defend the United States government is to teach others (and therefore refused to use Bush's claims of credibility). Full report in The Lancet also notes that many reports of casualties during the war seriously underestimated, so their numbers may not be acceptable, such as initial sound. The reason for this controversy when he announced in October 2006, and more details about this site, including some of the media and links relevant to Iraq.
Things are looking up for Dr. Catherine Webb, a cardiologist at Children's Northwestern University in Chicago. "When I was training in the 80s`, this specialty was very frustrating, "adding" but not anymore. "

It is true that the proportion of deaths from heart disease among children, nearly half what it was in 1980, according to a compendium of statistics from federal child health issued last month.

Also dropped by almost half of the mortality rates of children from birth defects, cancer and heart disease, pneumonia and influenza, as well as mortality related to injuries resulting from car accidents, drowning, fires, and weapons are firearms, suffocation.

Decreased mortality from all causes 53 percent among children aged 1-4 and 45 percent among children aged 5-14, and add up to stay for about 8,000 children a year who have died in 1980.

"It's fantastic news," said Harry Rosenberg, retired chief of the mortality statistics branch of the National Center for Health Statistics, which is part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The best medicine and new safety measures get a lot of the credit, so the government sought no health insurance coverage for disadvantaged children, which gives them better access to medical care.

Credit for parents, too, said Dr. Frederick Rivara, a professor of pediatrics at the University of Washington in Seattle who specializes in reducing injury. They are less drinking and smoking, for example, reducing defects, fires and car accidents.

"Parents have got away from the idea that the occurrence of accidents, and can not be prevented," said Rivara. "They know that child safety seats save lives and bike helmets prevent head injuries, and believe, parents, and that they can protect their children, and this significant change."

Killer and the only one which leads - murder - has not slowed significantly.

"They are cases of abuse, really," said Rivara.

And all ethnic groups showed similar declines 1980-2004 - the latest year reported - but the mortality rate for black children remained nearly 40 percent compared with those for Hispanics, Asians and non-Hispanic whites.

As a matter of concern: Most of the declines flattened by the year 2000, for reasons that are not clear.

The recorded rates of death from all causes in the "America's children: Key national indicators of well-being, 2007," which can be read online at http://www.childstats.gov tables describe trends leading to the killers of a year from 1980 through 2004.

Different interpretations lies behind all down and here are some of the key:

- Vehicles; mortality decreased from 7.4 to 3.3 per 100,000 for children aged 1-4; down from 7.5 to 3.7 for children ages 5 to 14.

The safest cars are a factor, but child safety seats and seat lift is the big teams. Used properly, safety seats and reducing child mortality by 71 percent, according to the management of the National Highway Traffic Safety.

Ballesteros cites indirect factors in the low incidence of drowning, also including: a reduction in drinking among adults, and one that cuts two ways - the children who live less active, less - cancer; mortality decreased from 4.5 to 2.5 per 100,000 for children who ranging in age from 1 to. 4; down from 4.3 to 2.5 for children aged 5 to 14.

Brenda Edwards and Lynn Rees, and researchers in monitoring the National Cancer Institute, attributed the rejection of early detection in addition to aggressive treatment of the very best medicines and chemotherapy. Leukemia and acute lymphatic leukemia in particular, and the most common form of cancer in children, and was the first crop, said Dr. Alan Wayne, director of clinical treatment of tumors in children in the National Cancer Institute.

"In the '60s, AL leukemia was considered the death penalty," said Wayne. Brain tumors and cancer, the most common the following: "Now the rates of survival five years approach 80 to 90 percent." Resulted in a fairly new surgical techniques and better radiation therapy, and Wayne said, "but the improvement was less dramatic."
