Ethiopia Calls Abdullahi Yusuf and TFG Prime Minister Responible for Somalia's lawlessness

The Ethiopian Foreign Minister accused the Somali Prisident and the Somali Prime Minister of being responsible for the unrest in Somalia.
 
Melez Zenawi's Foreign Minister accused the Somali TFG's President and Prime Minister of being behind the civilian displacement and the country's unrest.  He said that the two top heads of the TFG lie to the Zenawi government and to the International community when the claim that anti-government groups are causing the civilian unrest in Somalia.  On the contrary, the Ethiopian minister that that they do not do their responsibilities to the Somali government properly, but rather busy themselves with propaganda to deceive the International donors. 
 
The minister continued that the two persons have no experience in managing a unity government and that they mostly look out for the their respective relatives and sub-clans.
 
The Ethiopian minister's accusations arise at a time the TFG President and Prime Minister are in Addis Ababa, the Capital city of EThiopia, as they get rebreifing from their so called boss, Melez Zenawi.  The majority of the Somalis call the TFG a cover-up puppet government that is put together to legitimize the Ethiopian invasion of Somalia.
 
It was early this week that Abdullahi Yusuf ordered his militia to bombard the biggest market in Somalia, Bakaraha, with heavy artillery including BM shells.  The Bakaraha is located in the heart of Mogadishu housing the majority of capital city's residents.  It is also the heart of the financial district of Somalia.  The TFG militia routinely target Bakaraha to conduct robberies and collect tariffs while they rob banks, money transfer companies, and small Qat shops on a regular basis.
 
Abdullahi Yusuf is also linked to pirates operating in Puntland region.

Want to Download Streamed Videos? YouTube, MSN, GoogleVideo, AOL Videos, All Streaming Media?

How to record streamed music and videos and to your computer?

[DnldAndRcrdMngr-744163.JPG]Today I will to teach you something new to most of you.  Ok, wait, maybe it is only new to some of you because this is being around for sometime.  But it is still relatively new and that's why those of us who are not Internet savvy or a techie did not figure it out yet.  I am talking about getting the Music and the other Media on the web copied to your computer.  So lets set the objective of this article straight.  After going through this reading, you will know how to save any video from Youtube.  You will also understand the technologies behind the media you will be dealing with.  If you get anything out of this article, let it be that you can save those favorite videos of yours from Youtube and other similar web sites into your computer so you can either store them in a CD or just keep them for any other purpose.

Introduction to Youtube.

I will concentrate on the Youtube example, but I will try to show you other examples later if possible, to make it easier for beginners because Youtube is probably the most famous web sites ever, of course after Google web site.  Don't argue on that statement, and of course it is not an important point of the lesson here.  Any ways, the background on Youtube is that it is a video sharing web site.  This means if I upload a video and you get to see that video as well as other millions of users can watch the same video at the same time.  So, it is simply a storage for virtually unlimited number of videos. 

Until recently, Youtube users only either uploaded videos on Youtube or watched what others had uploaded.  But nowadays, there are numerous ways to also download videos from Youtube with the help of computer programs.

Using Programs to download Videos

The best method I discovered so far is to use RealPlayer, which is one of the most popular media players out there in the market.   If you haven't heard the name, then you probably spent the last decade or so in a deserted Island where there is no Internet connection.  No pun intended!

If you are familiar with RealPlayer, go and download the latest version at the Real Networks web site.  The version I use, which is the only one that will allow streaming media downloading, is v11.03, apparently the latest one.  This is a free program unless you want to buy it for more additional commercial features.

Once you have downloaded Real Player, you need to install it, then you can start downloading.  Of course I will walk you through the necessary steps to perform the task I mentioned here.  So, sit back and read more.  Now look, I know this article can get lengthy and you may not have time to read it all at once, so I recommend you Add to Favorites,

  1. Click on Favorites
  2. Click on Add to Favorites
  3. Click on Ok

How to download Real Player

The steps of downloading RealPlayer 11.03 involves visiting the download web site and then registering with Real Networks (Free Registration) and then when provided with the download link opening the link and saving the download file into your computer.

  1. Go to Real Player Download Link

  2. Under Basic Player heading click on Get Your Player --> button
  3. Once the File Download box shows up on your screen click on Save button
  4. Select the desired folder you want to save the RealPlayer Installation program
  5. Click on Open button again.  Internet Explorer will start the download.

Installing RealPlayer v11.03

Once the download finishes, Internet Explorer will prompt you whether or not you want to run the program or open the folder containing it.  Click on Run button to start installing it.  Some time during the Installation, RealPlayer program will ask you if you want to activate the option to download Streaming Media from the Internet so you need to check the box that says Yes.

That is it.

How to Download the Videos On Youtube

You now have RealPlayer v11.03  installed and ready to download any video.  Whenever you start[DownloadVideoBtn_RPlr-743617.JPG] watching a video, RealPlayer media recording function will start and ask you if you want to download the video.

  1. Click on Download This Vidoe Button
  2. Allow the RP Download Manager to finish downloading[DnldAndRcrdMngr-744163.JPG]

Now to Find the vidoe,

  1. Start Real Player
  2. Click on My Library
  3. Select Downloaded Recordings

You should then see a list of the videos you have downloaded onto Real Player.  Please remember that all Youtube videos are in .flv format which is the standard Flash Player format.

From here on, what you do with the videos you have downloaded is up to you!  However, I will try to explain how you can move it your mobile phone or burn it into a CD to watch it on your VCD/DVD/Vidx player.  But all that in due time.

Abdullahi Yusuf Orders His Militia to Destroy Biggest Market in Mogadishu with Heavy Artillery

The Somali Ethiopian backed TFG President ordered his guards to destroy the Financial market of the city, the Bakaaraha Market which is known to be the biggest market in Somalia.  Abdullahi Yusuf ordered his guards to bombard Bakaraha with heavy artillery as retaliation after his militia had been attacked by Al-Shabab and other anti-government forces in his compound in Somali Villa. 
 
Several important structures were hit with mortar shells.  Among the buildings damaged by the TFG militias tanks and BM shells include the Hormud Telecommunication office building and Amal bank.  No word of the number of casualties despite the Bakaraha market being one of the most populated areas of Mogadishu, Somalia's Capital city.
 
As Dalkanews.com reports, the anti-government forces are in battle with the Ethiopian army in several fronts in many districts in Mogadishu's north-west to the southern part of the city.  Although the Bakaraha Market is being targetted by Abdullahi's militia, no fighting is happening there at the moment on Thursday August 21st.
 
On August 20th, several Somali TFG militia (the Copy-Ethiopia militia) were killed by remote controlled land mine.  They were said to have being conducting armed robbery on civilian vehicles that were headed to Bakaraha Market.
