Maasai Cricket Warriors batting for HIV awareness — The Maasai Cricket Warriors visited the School and met with Professor Peter Piot to discuss HIV/AIDS prevention, during a trip to the UK where they have been taking part in the Last Man Stands amateur cricket world championships.

The team, made up of Maasai from several remote Kenyan communities, use cricket as a method of spreading information to young people in their communities about important health issues and women’s rights, addressing topics like female genital mutilation and child marriage, as well as HIV/AIDS. The team have been in the UK for a week, playing cricket matches in the tournament to help raise awareness of their work.

The Maasai Cricket Warriors and their South African coach, Aliya Bauer, who introduced cricket to these remote villages, were given a tour of the School’s library and labs and met with Prof Piot.

The Maasai Cricket Warriors visited the School and met with Professor Peter Piot to discuss HIV/AIDS prevention, during a trip to the UK where they have been taking part in the Last Man Stands amateur cricket world championships.

Team captain, Sonyanga Ole Ngais, explained part of the team’s philosophy, using cricket to adapt the ABC HIV prevention technique: Abstinence (in cricket the batters must abstain from hitting the ball in the air otherwise they’ll get caught out); Be careful (the batters must be careful with their shots or runs as they may get themselves of their partners out); Condom (refers to protection; the batters are aiming to protect their wickets so they can stay in as long as possible).

Professor Piot joked: “I don’t know anything about cricket, but luckily I know a lot about AIDS.” Praising the team for their great work promoting HIV awareness he said: “I must congratulate you on what you are doing. Young people in Africa are at particular risk of HIV, especially through unprotected sex.

Abandoned Olympic Venues Of 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing

With the current debate in Brazil about how much hosting the Olympics helps the local economy despite the enormous construction costs, we thought we would look at how another country has utilized their Olympic structures. China hosted the summer games in Beijing in 2008. Surely they put all those fields and stadiums to good use, right? Well, if the plan was to create the biggest permanent set for a post-apocalyptic movie, then they were right on target! Someone call Kurt Russell, we’re going to need him to dust off his Snake Plissken eyepatch for Escape From Beijing.

The Limbless Warrior



11-year-old Dayton Webber lost all his limbs when he was just 11-months-old, due to a life-threatening infection in his body.
But it couldn't stop him from living a normal life.
His parents say it was all his idea to try himself in different sports.
Now he rides skateboard, ice-skates, drives go-karts.
But the most amazing part is that he competes for The Rampage Wrestling Team, in Waldorf.
He wrestles with healthy kids and even wins.
When someone asks him about his arms he says “it’s no big deal”.
Amazing story and a very strong kid. More pix after the jump.
