Massive flooding in Pakistan has killed at least 430 people as monsoon rains continue to bloat rivers, submerge villages and trigger landslides, according to rescue and government officials.

At least 291 people have died in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province, in the country's northwest, since Wednesday, said Mujahid Khan of the Edhi Foundation, a privately run rescue service that operates morgues and ambulances across the South Asian country.

Provincial officials called the flooding the worst in 90 years.

Pakistan's poor infrastructure has been unable to stand up to the terrible weather.

Under-equipped rescue workers have struggled to reach up to 400,000 stranded villagers, while the highway connecting Peshawar to the capital city Islamabad had to be shut down.

There are also only 48 boats available for rescue.

Pakistani TV showed striking images of people clinging to fences and other stationary items as water at times gushed over their heads.

In Pakistani-controlled Kashmir, at least 22 people had been confirmed dead as of Thursday evening, the area's prime minister, Sardar Attique Khan, told reporters.

The death toll from the deluge was expected to rise because many people were still missing. Poor weather this week also may have been a factor in Wednesday's Airblue plane crash that killed 152 people in Islamabad.

In the Swat Valley, residents were forced to trudge through knee-deep water in some streets.

A newly constructed part of a dam in the Charsadda district collapsed, while the UN said it had reports of 5,000 homes underwater in that area.

Pakistan's poorest residents are often the ones living in flood-prone areas because they can't afford safer land.

China has overtaken Japan to become the second-largest economy in the world, a senior Chinese official says.

CBC News : July 30, 2010 : China has overtaken Japan to become the second-largest economy in the world, a senior Chinese official said Friday.

"China, in fact, is now already the world's second-largest economy," China's currency regulator, Yi Gang, said in an interview posted on the agency's website.

Estimates from the IMF, World Bank and independent economists predict China will likely supplant the United States' economy as the world's largest by 2025.

While the country's massive manufacturing base makes that a likely bet to happen in the next decade, a lot hinges on what China decides to do with its undervalued currency.

China does not allow its currency to float on the open market, a practice that critics say undervalues it and allows it to artificially boost its exporting clout.

The Chinese economy has grown by an average of more than 10 per cent per year for much of the past decade. Rampant growth like that raises the spectre of inflation, which in turn eats into growth.

The country has also only begun to tackle complex labour and environmental issues as its economy develops, and it's unclear what impact those factors might have on its explosive economic growth.

Earlier this month, the International Energy Agency estimated that China had already supplanted the U.S. as the world's largest consumer of oil, a claim Beijing disputes.

Official data from China is always viewed with a healthy dose of skepticism, but China is generally believed to have passed Germany as the world's third-largest economy some time in 2007.

President Barack Obama appears on the daytime TV talk show 'The View' in New York City July 28, 2010. From left are Whoopi Goldberg, Barbara Walters, Joy Behar, Sherri Shepherd and Elisabeth Hasselbeck.REUTERS/Kevin Lamarque /

Thu Jul 29, 2:14 PM :By Patricia Zengerle: WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama tried to revive his common touch on Thursday with a mainly light-hearted appearance on daytime television where five women hosts grilled him about his Blackberry, Lindsay Lohan and the Afghan war.

His appearance was the first by a sitting U.S. president on a daytime talk show. It allowed Obama to appeal directly to a targeted audience as he fights flagging poll numbers while he and his fellow Democrats try to avoid big losses in the November congressional election.

"The View" typically draws 3-4 million viewers and is particularly popular with women who are home at its late-morning air time.

In a wide-ranging interview, Obama defended his Afghan war strategy and efforts to lift the country out of recession, but said he expected things would get better, if over time.

"If we get our mojo back over the next several months, then I am absolutely confident that we are going to be doing terrific, but we're going to have to make some fundamental structural changes as we go along," he said.

He said he was frustrated with the anger of political debate, and blamed the media for a recent "phony controversy" that led to the firing of a black Agriculture Department employee who appeared to be making racist comments in an edited videotape that was shown repeatedly by conservative media.

"When you feel as if every single initiative that we're doing is subject to Washington politics instead of 'is this good for the country,' that can be frustrating," he said.

WAR AND POP CULTURE

The Afghanistan war is worth fighting, Obama said, when asked about the recent leak of documents painting a bleak picture of the unpopular conflict, which bitterly divides his own Democratic party.

"If you've got chaos ... in this region where there's no functioning government and warlords and terrorist affiliates are able to operate, that is going to be that much tougher for us to make sure that they are not attacking us," Obama said.

Obama also showed he has some grasp of popular culture. He knew that actress Lindsay Lohan had been sent to jail, although he said he had not heard of "Snooki," the star of a popular reality television show, and dodged a question about tapes of angry telephone calls by actor Mel Gibson.

Obama also lamented his inability to enjoy technology.

He is the first president to use a Blackberry, but he can't enjoy the jokes and pictures that fill most inboxes.

"I have a Blackberry, but only 10 people have (access to) it," he said. "And I've got to admit it's no fun, because they think it's going to be subject to the presidential records act, so nobody sends me the juicy stuff."

The few days we don’t hear gunfire or explosions, we feel really happy."

Shield Pakistan’s civilians from the horrors of living inside a human rights-free zone.

Dear M.T. ,

Northwest Pakistan, including the Swat valley - once known as the "Switzerland of Pakistan" for its scenic and natural beauty - is now the center of a deadly triangle between the Taliban, Pakistani army forces and U.S. drone attacks.

Relentless fighting between these groups has left millions of civilians homeless and unable to care for their families. Countless more have lost their lives in this appalling, human rights-free zone.

As Parveen, a girl's school teacher who now holds her classes in a tent after the original school building was bombed by the Taliban, sees it: "The few days we don't hear gunfire or explosions, we feel really happy."

The innocent men, women and children trapped in the middle of this violence are not acceptable casualties of war. The harm caused to them during such indiscriminate attacks is a clear reason why we must draw a line now.

Act now to ensure that the civilians of northwest Pakistan won't be forgotten.

The human impact of conflict in Pakistan

Young girls stand outside makeshift tents which now act as schools after the Taliban bombed the original building site.

Donate Now!


We created the website eyesonpakistan.org to help give private citizens and policy makers access to these previously inaccessible conflict zones. Our thinking was that if we could help people visualize the extent of the violence and human rights abuses in the region, then decisive action would be taken to correct it.



In just a matter of weeks, thousands have visited the website and by using our interactive maps have been able to see the destruction of Pakistan's schools, hospitals, and homes with their own eyes. The BBC, Huffington Post and other news sites have reported widely on our efforts to expose abuses committed against civilians in the region.

Now that attention is finally starting to focus on Pakistan's civilians, we must ensure that clear action steps will follow.

Your support means that we can continue to provide compelling imagery and analysis of human rights abuses in Pakistan. This research reinforces our case that the Pakistani and U.S. governments must do more to protect human rights in their strategies for northwest Pakistan.

With your help, we can keep our eyes on Pakistan's civilians, even when it seems like the rest of the world has forgotten them.

Thank you for taking action,

RCMP Commissioner William Elliott gestures during an interview in his office in Ottawa in Senior RCMP officers, including Commissioner William Elliott, say they are working through their issues, following complaints about Elliott's management style, according to an internal memo. November 2009. (Pawel Dwulit/Canadian Press)

CBC News : July 28, 2010 : Senior RCMP officers, including Commissioner William Elliott, say they are working through their issues, following complaints about Elliott's management style, according to an internal memo.

The memo, obtained by CBC News, is signed by Elliott and other top RCMP officers, including deputy commissioners Tim Killam and Raf Souccar. Killam and Souccar were among those who complained to the public safety minister and to the Prime Minister's Office about Elliott's conduct.

The memo, sent to the force, states that the senior brass is "working through the issues underlying the complaints."

In it, Elliott and the others say they welcome the workplace assessment of the force that Public Safety Minister Vic Toews has ordered to be done by an independent adviser and that they will co-operate "fully and with candor."

"We are part of the RCMP family. As with any family, there are occasions where we have difficulties," the memo says.

CBC News first reported this week that some officers have accused Elliott of being verbally abusive, closed-minded, arrogant and insulting. One complaint described an enraged Elliott throwing papers at an officer.

The Opposition Liberals weighed in on the issue on Wednesday, saying Prime Minister Stephen Harper triggered the current "chaos" by naming a civilian to head the force.

Liberal MP Scott Brison said the prime minister is "in hiding" at a critical time when leadership is needed to fix the force.

"Mr. Harper appointed a civilian to head up the RCMP and should be accountable for the chaos caused by that appointment," Brison told reporters in Ottawa on Wednesday.

"It ought to have been obvious to the Harper government that appointing a civilian to head up the RCMP was a recipe for disaster."

Toews seeks 'quick resolution'

Toews called all the people involved "very competent individuals" and noted the force has been going through "some pretty dramatic changes."

The RCMP has faced strong criticism following the damning conclusions from separate public inquiries into the death of Robert Dziekanski and the 1985 Air India bombing.

"I know both the commissioner and I know the others involved who have brought forward the complaints," Toews said. "I respect all of them, and I think what I want to see is a quick resolution of this issue in a mature manner."

But Brison said Toews must have been aware there was a problem among the ranks of the Mounties but didn't act until the complaints became public.

Elliott a 'man of extremes': former deputy

Former senior deputy RCMP commissioner Bill Sweeney defended the officers who spoke out, saying many felt the commissioner's behaviour was "inconsistent" with the courteous, respectful conduct front-line officers are expected to maintain.

Sweeney said members of the force were criticized in 2006 for not speaking out after reports emerged about former commissioner Giuliano Zaccardelli's management style.

"Today we find a cadre of senior officers who are acting, I believe, with the most honourable intentions, saying, 'We're in a situation that we find intolerable and we feel compelled to raise it and to deal with this head on and not to ignore it and quietly go about our business,'" the recently retired Sweeney told the CBC's Alison Crawford in an interview on Wednesday.

While he called Elliott a "strong advocate" for many issues facing the force, Sweeney also spoke of the commissioner's "rather unique" management style and refused to comment on their working relationship.

"He's a man of extremes," Sweeney said of Elliott. "He's extremely dedicated. He's extremely intelligent and committed to the task at hand, but sometimes he pays less attention to the conduct that others find offensive and have complained about."

Last year, Elliott attended a $44,000 course in Arizona that dealt with behavioural barriers to success.

He subsequently acknowledged to employees in a memo that he learned his actions "can and did have unintended, sometimes negative impacts."

Elliott, the first civilian to lead the Mounties, was appointed by the prime minister in July 2007 after Zaccardelli resigned over his conflicting testimony at the Maher Arar inquiry.

At the time, then-Liberal public safety critic Sue Barnes decried the appointment, labelling Elliott a "Conservative political insider" who was "intimately involved" with Zaccardelli's testimony.

But Elliott, who previously served as national security adviser to Prime Minister Paul Martin, also received high praise from a former Liberal cabinet minister, David Collenette.

Pettersson has long been one of the PGA Tour's almost-there stars, a guy who has the talent to win but not necessarily break away from the pack. He's also part of a long lineage of portly golf champions, from Craig Stadler to Mark Calcavecchia to John Daly. He's listed at 5-11, 195 pounds, which seems like someone might be shaving a few strokes off that figure. And to hear him tell it, getting fit was the worst thing that could happen to him.

In 2008, his game came together, as he won once, made 25 of 29 cuts, and earned a tidy $2.5 million in prize money. And then he did the unthinkable: He decided to lose a little weight and come back even stronger in 2009.

"I was thinking: What can I do to get better?" he said over the weekend. "Obviously I was a little overweight and I thought, well, I’ll get fit. I actually lost 30 pounds and my game completely left me. I guess the timing of the swing and everything was thrown out and I really struggled in '09."

That's like saying country-fried steak and gravy might be a tad unhealthy. In 2009, Pettersson made only 15 of 29 cuts with but a single top 10, and earned "only" $564,000. But, once off the fitness bandwagon and back on the Krispy Kreme truck, or whatever his poison of choice may be, Pettersson found his game again. He's already got four top-10 finishes and he's nearly quadrupled his 2009 earnings.

He's also of a much calmer mindset. He was looking at missing the cut on Friday afternoon at the RBC. So to ease his nerves, he headed to the St. George clubhouse. "And I walked in the locker room and Jay Williamson had all the scenarios written out, and he’s like, ‘Grab a beer.’ Before you know it I’d had seven beers (and) made the cut." Two days later, he was the champ.

"I’d love to be fitter," Pettersson said, "but I’m not going to go down that road again."

Hey, whatever works. He's already a millionaire. And if he can figure a way to teach a gut-momentum golf swing, he'll be a billionaire.

Game-play can teach you valuable leadership and strategy skills.


SAN FRANCISCO -- Elliot Noss, chief executive of domain name provider Tucows, has spent the past five years training to become a better leader. How? By playing "World of Warcraft" for six to seven hours a week.

"'You have these events [in "World of Warcraft"] that are very leadership-driven," Noss says. "For example, when you're in a raid that's poorly led, it's really easy to see how valuable are skills like managing the social dynamic, making sure there was the right level of preparation and making sure that there was a clear hierarchy in terms of who is performing what roles."

They ask for financial and logistic supports from Canadian government. The use most of countries for illusionary jobs, and their intelligence groups are working under the influence of temptation of wealthy people of the Arabian Gulf and the dictators of the World.

In "World of Warcraft," each action, even a small task like hunting an animal, has a purpose and fits into a broader framework. Similarly, Noss has set up frameworks at Tucows that allow employees to understand how day-to-day tasks impact the company.

He does this, in part, by giving employees a broader narrative and context for their work. Noss does a regular lunchtime series called "Tucows Lore." Around 20 employees come to each session. Noss plays the company poet, telling tales of Tucows over the years--its heroes, villains, battles with large telecommunications companies or the early days of the domain registration market. "The feedback is fantastic. It helps people feel they are part of something bigger," Noss says.

Noss' efforts seem to be paying off. He says he has seen employee satisfaction rise and turnover decrease by a noticeable percentage.

From Expressen TV, here's footage from the Zetterberg Wedding. Sadly, at no point do the Chicago Blackhawks show up in Snidely Whiplash mustaches, attempting to tie guests to train tracks.

Congrats to the happy couple, who we hear are currently vacationing in a "Where's Waldo?" book. By the way, it's a medical fact that if the Red Wings' Swedish players wore these outfits on the same ice as the Canadiens wore their barber pole sweaters, your optic nerves would burst into flames.

To be sure, videogames have long been thought of as distractions to work and education, rather than aids. But there is a growing school of thought that says game-playing in moderation, and in your free time, can make you more successful in your career.

"We're finding that the younger people coming into the teams who have had experience playing online games are the highest-level performers because they are constantly motivated to seek out the next challenge and grab on to performance metrics," says John Hagel III, co-chairman of a tech-oriented strategy center for Deloitte. Hagel has been studying the effect that playing videogames has on the performance of young professionals in the workplace.

Hagel cites Stephen Gillett, a gamer who became chief information officer of Starbucks while still in his 20s. By playing "World of Warcraft" Gillet developed the ability to influence and persuade people through leadership rather than trying to order them around.

A book published in April called "Your Career Game" discusses how online Xbox games like "Modern Warfare 2" can teach players about game theory. The strategies gamers learn in interacting and competing with others in games, assessing different motivations and finding and utilizing mentors can help employees get ahead in the workplace or help job-seekers get an edge in their search. The book was co-authored by Nathan Bennett, a management professor at Georgia Tech, and Stephen Miles, vice chairman of executive search firm Heidrick & Struggles.


Hagel also says games can cultivate "dispositions" that are valuable in a corporate setting. Videogames are often a trial-and-error process where players become accustomed to failure, and learn from it.

Games can also present players with unexpected challenges and new situations. Gamers learn to respond to, and even seek out, new challenges in order to progress. They also learn to improvise, and are thus more likely to be able to solve problems creatively when there is no solution to be found in a manual.

Games can train you to manage and organize high volumes of information. Luis Corujo, an archivist at the Portuguese National Archives and a professor at a private university in Portugal, credits playing history game "Europa Universalis 2" with helping him learn how to research historical information and sift through archives.

And of course, games are competitive. "There's a player-vs.-self aspect: 'I want to beat my high score or keep the streak alive,'" says Ross Smith, director of product testing at Microsoft's Unified Communications Group. Smith says he has seen some impressive productivity gains using games as a way of motivating product testing teams.

Videogames can also inspire entrepreneurship. In 2004 then 22-year-old David Storey entered the Guinness World Records as having bought the "most valuable object that is virtual," a virtual island in the online game "Project Entropia," for a whopping US$26,500. Far from being a digital sucker, Storey had moneymaking in mind: He now runs the island as a virtual game preserve, making $100,000 a year from taxes he charges hunters on his island. Being a virtual property owner, says Storey, has taught him a lot more about business than he ever thought a game could.

Does that mean entries like "guild leader" or "virtual island business owner" will become more common on resumes? Not yet, but maybe soon. Says Hagel: "I anticipate in the not-too-distant future this will be as standard a part of your resume as where you went to school."

Fri Jul 23 06:29am PDT: Do not adjust your monitor: This is an actual photograph from the pre-wedding festivities for Detroit Red Wings star Henrik Zetterberg(notes) and his TV presenter lady-love Emma Andersson in her Swedish hometown of Molle, located on the Baltic Sea. And really, what says "till death do us part" better than dressing like you're on a Depression-era chain gang with George Clooney?

ept_sports_nhl_experts-685961547-1279890977.jpg?ymhoyfDDaAWFmLtV

ept_sports_nhl_experts-442221426-1279891007.jpg?ym_oyfDDE1HQGBj6The Swedish newspapers Expressen and Aftonbladet published these hilarious images from Thursday's wedding, featuring the happy couple in their respective Dread Pirate Roberts/Amish criminal get-ups.

Also featured Red Wings players like Andreas Lilja(notes), Johan Franzen(notes) and Nicklas Lidstrom(notes) rocking these striped nightmares. In the photo above, you can spy Pavel Datsyuk(notes) on the far left with Valtteri Filppula(notes). (Why do we imagine Dats brought his own bath wear?)

So what's the deal with the greatest hockey theme wedding since Jim Carrey showed up dressed as Fidel Castro to Dan Hinote's(notes) nuptials with Jenny McCarthy's sister? George James Malik of Snapshots worked long hours Thursday night translating and researching, revealing the backstory. Turns out the 120 guests didn't realize what they were in for when bused to the shore:

[Molle] apparently known for the fact that its "baths" were public and open to both men and women as early as the late 19th century. So, as Emma tells Aftonbladet's Johanna Helsten, the wedding party got to poke fun at tradition, probably mandatory bathing attire included. [...]

You might want to note in the group photo that some of the attendees are wearing fake moustaches, fake Coke bottle glasses and vintage-1900 hats. It's a big gag on tradition, and Hank and Emma obviously sprung it on the wedding guests. A very knowing joke.

Alastair Larwill sent me this off-the-cuff poem the other day. Very nice of him. I must surmise that it's inspired by the jwcurry's birthday bowling evening from last week, and two words that lil' Matthew's been saying recently: Action Power! Matt, incidentally, turns four at the end of this month. Here, I believe, Alistair references my super bowling ability to hurl the ball down the lane, practically without touching the floor...oops. And I was wearing my über-cool blue Hawaiian (bowling) shirt that night. Also in the poem, there's a stanza referring to a photo I captured of the alleged bag thief à la movie Blow Up. Can you believe it? Some dude, in the cover of darkness and crazy lights of the bowling alley, has the stones to sit among us and steal a brief case. Wow.


Camera man

Poetic cyclops
Lobs rocks
At those that
Stand still
With a back spin
To kick them up

Flashing lights
Disco music
And a festive
Tropical shirt
Fires cannonballs

With apples
French toast
Cheerios
And hope

Catches the
thief
Before the roll
Is revealed
The
bag lies
Dormant

Each moment
Caught in time
Of the celebration
Of the big Five-O
This is no Saturday

It’s
ACTION POWER
day.

Insurgents claim to be holding 2nd U.S. sailor

A leaflet distributed by the U.S. military to civilians in Logar province, east of Kabul, on Sunday shows an unidentified missing U.S. navy sailor, with an offer of $20,000 US for information on his whereabouts. (Associated Press)

CBC News : July 25, 2010: The Taliban now claims to have abducted one U.S. navy serviceman and killed another after an ambush in Afghanistan's Logar province.

Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid told The Associated Press on Sunday that the American was killed during a brief gunfight in an area of Logar province that is under insurgent control, while a second American was captured.

Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, declined to comment on the report and would only say that a search was continuing for the missing Americans.

NATO has confirmed the two failed to return to a military compound in Kabul on Friday.

The U.S. military has been broadcasting radio messages offering $20,000 US for information leading to their safe return.

The Taliban has reportedly contacted Afghan officials, offering to exchange the body of the dead soldier for the release of several insurgents.

Afghan police said they saw the Americans driving in an armoured SUV, which failed to stop when police tried to wave it down to warn them of Taliban activity in the area.

The Americans went into a bazaar; as they drove away, they were ambushed, police said.

Their disappearance comes amid warnings from Afghan security officials that Taliban insurgents are initiating a campaign of kidnappings and assassinations in response to the ongoing NATO surge.

Specialist Bowe Bergdahl of Hailey, Idaho, was captured by the Taliban in Paktika province in June 2009. He is the only known American in the Taliban's hands and has appeared in videos posted on Taliban websites.
