The Sun Fantastic Farah flies to victory MAGNIFICENT Mo Farah stormed to victory in the 10,000 metres last night — and vowed to win a SECOND gold for his twin daughters who are due next month. Mo became Team GB’s first male runner to win a 2012 medal and now has his eyes on the 5,000 metres, which starts on Wednesday. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prime Minister David Cameron were among 80,000 fans roaring the 29-year-old Somali-born hero across the line. MAGNIFICENT Mo Farah stormed to victory in the 10,000 metres last night — and vowed to win a SECOND gold for his twin daughters who are due next month. Mo became Team GB’s first male runner to win a 2012 medal and now has his eyes on the 5,000 metres, which starts on Wednesday. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prime Minister David Cameron were among 80,000 fans roaring the 29-year-old Somali-born hero across the line. And after embracing wife Tania and step-daughter Rihanna, seven, he said: “It’s never going to get any better than this, it’s the best moment of my life. “It was amazing, my legs were getting tired but the crowd gave me a huge lift. “If it wasn’t for the crowd and the support — shouting my name and putting up Union Jacks — I wouldn’t have won.” Mo — the first Brit to win the 10,000 metres — vowed not to talk to wife Tania yesterday so he could focus on the race. But he joyfully draped his arms around her as he celebrated his marvellous win in 27 minutes 30.42 seconds. Looking forward to the 5,000 metres, he added: “I’m going for two medals so it would be great to be able to give the twins one each. That would be amazing.” Mo had earlier seen Jessica Ennis take gold — and used her win to inspire him. He revealed: “I saw Jess as I was doing a few strides and had this feeling, ‘Yeah, I want to win a gold too’. “I was really buzzing when I walked into the stadium, like I’d had ten cups of coffee. I knew I just had to do something because I was so pumped up.” Mo, born in war-torn Mogadishu, was only eight when he was brought to Britain. The only English he knew was “Where’s the toilet?” and “Excuse me”. The family settled in Hounslow, Middlesex, where he attended the Isleworth and Syon School. It was there that his raw talent was spotted. The delighted champion said landing gold in the capital was extra special. Mo, who moved to Oregon, US, with his family last year to step up his training for the Games added: “I came here as a young boy from Somalia but this is where I grew up, in London, and to win it here means so much to me. “This is my country and when I put on my Great Britain vest I am very proud.” Before yesterday’s race he joked that Tania might give birth to the twins during the Olympics, saying: “At least they would be born at the stadium — and there will be a team doctor around.” Source: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/olympics/4472332/Mo-Farah-wins-gold-in-Olympic-victory-at-London-2012.html

The Daily Telegraph Mo Farah makes history as first British man to take gold in Olympic 10000m It will be a picture to live with British athletics for ever and a day. Mo Farah, open-mouthed, eyes bigger than saucers, banging himself on the head with both hands four times, unable to believe that he had just put the golden crown on the most fantastic day in his country’s Olympic history. He had just sprinted into athletics legend with what must go down as the most accomplished, perfectly executed and dazzling track triumphs by any British athlete in Olympic annals. So, yes, why not? It really was time for the “Mobot”, that daft bonce-slapping ritual, to go quite global. When you have a night like this, so surreal that you can barely take it all in, it seems almost unfair to pick a favourite moment. Yet after 100 years of attempting to win a global gold medal in the longest track discipline, it felt utterly perfect that here in the land of the harrier, Britain’s greatest male endurance runner should deliver at last in a home Games. With a practically perfect race. ncredibly, no Briton has won an Olympic distance event since Emil Voigt landed the gold in 1908 here in London in the five miles, an event now completely redundant. And what a way for Farah to deliver. Not only did he outsprint the best in the world with his searing and courageous last lap of 53.48sec but he had done so by defeating simply the finest distance runner the sport had ever seen. Kenenisa Bekele gave it everything, pushing for a third consecutive Olympic crown but when Farah decided to push the button with 450 agonising metres to go, the mighty Ethiopian was left trailing in his slipstream. There was no argument, no excuses. This was a passing of the torch, Bekele beaten for the first time in a 10,000m race that he had completed. There is no question now about the world’s finest distance man. There really are not many more difficult events to win in the entire Games than the 25-lap classic and you cannot overstate the difficulty of the task for Farah, in the first 10,000m since he was defeated at the World Championships in Daegu last year, to have to cope with the mental and physical toll of this contest. The Eritreans, Ethiopians and Kenyans all worked their wiles, all enjoyed nudging and trying to put him off his elegant stride in the early exchanges as the 29-strong field chopped and changed, yet every change of pace, every little bit of intimidation was serenely ignored by the Londoner. Farah just kept to his own path, his own steady pace to ensure that when the leaders started to crank up the speed ever more relentlessly, he covered the key moves expertly. Then came the perfect moment to strike. This took rare nerve. Last year, he kicked 50m further out and was hunted down in a sprint finish by the little-known Ethiopian, Ibrahim Jeilan. This time, with 450m left, he hit the button marked glory and began to stretch away from his pursuers. It was agonising to watch, because each time it looked as if he was about to push away decisively, the gap seemed to become breachable again. “With 200m to go, I had to push it again,” Farah reckoned. And as he hit the home straight, the final danger, ironically, came from his Oregon training partner and one of his best buddies, American Galen Rupp, who has a devastating finishing kick. They had been working together earlier as a mini team to counter the African trios ganging up on them and, Farah admitted, had agreed “it would be every man for himself” if it came down to a sprint finish. But inspired by the crowd’s roars, Farah was never going to be caught and surged further and further clear to win in 27min 30.42sec, almost half-a-second clear of Rupp (27-30.90). The Bekele boys came in third and fourth, Tariku taking bronze and Kenenisa finishing some two seconds behind Farah in fourth. Farah looked to the skies. “Did I really finish first?” he asked himself, before he ended up embracing wife, Tania, and daughter, Rihanna, at trackside and was allowed to pinch himself. Then it dawned. “This was the greatest moment of my life,” he said. An amazing journey had been completed which had lasted much, much longer than 10,000m, a journey which took an eight-year-old boy all the way from Mogadishu, Somalia, via Djibouti after civil war had broken out in his native land, to London and now to the top of the world. And if it really was his finest moment, what price now that he could yet have another one to rival it next Sunday when he aims to finish these Games by joining the immortals? Five men have won both the Olympic 5,000m and 10,000m titles in the same Games: Hannes Kolehmainen, Vladimir Kuts, Lasse Viren, Miruts Yifter and Bekele. Who could possibly now bet against the 29 year-old, who sets out on Wednesday in the heats, accompanying them in the pantheon? “To win the Olympic Games in my home city is beyond words. This is my home, this is where I grew up,” he said. And this is where a mischievous kid became a legend, a good lad who also turned into one of the greatest runners these isles of wonder have ever embraced. Go, Mo, it is your time!

I understand, but lots of people can argue that, what Shariif believed in 2006 and what he believes now can be called hypocrisy and a man with no principals. But I think people can change their views if they realize they were on the wrong path. "Shariif shaley, Shariif Maanta". Bal ka tali adiga tan

Horta SOL fairness maxaa u diidey? Labada nin ha u kala hiillinina ee cayaartana qashqashaadda ka daaya. That's what I predicted, if the TFG and the IC still deal with Caalin "business as usual", then that would encourage him and make him even challenge more with Qaybdiid which is bad for Galmudug as that will prolong the standoff and will divide the community even more. But as you said lets wait and see how Qaybdiid deals with this latest set back.

India set to launch Mars mission in 2013 The mission would mark another step in India's ambitious space programme, which envisages the Asian giant's first manned mission in 2016. "We will embark on the Mars mission after the Department of Science gives the green signal and decides the schedule early next year," Deviprasad Karnik, director of the state-run Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) told AFP. A 320-tonne Indian Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle rocket will be used to carry the orbiter spaceship, blasting off from the ISRO launch site at Sriharikota in the southern state of Andhra Pradesh. Another senior official at ISRO, requesting anonymity, estimated the cost of the mission at 4.0-5.0 billion rupees (£45-58 million). The central government earmarked 1.25 billion rupees for the project in the last federal budget. India began its space programme in 1963 and has developed its own satellites and launch vehicles to cut dependence on overseas agencies. In September, 2009, India's Chandrayaan-1 satellite discovered water on the moon, boosting the country's credibility among established space-faring nations. But the space programme suffered a major setback in December 2010 when a satellite launch vehicle blew up and fell into the Bay of Bengal after veering from its intended flight path.
