How to Monetize Internet Traffic From Bolivia

April 19th, 2010 by pacapao

Bolivia, officially The Republic of Bolivia, was named after Simon Bolivar, and is a landlocked country in central South America. It is bordered by Brazil on the north and east, Paraguay and Argentina on the south, and Chile and Peru on the west. It has a population of some 9.5 million people, approximately one million of which have access to the internet at this time.

One of the poorest and least developed Latin American nations, Bolivia has the region’s lowest credit card penetration rates and remains a predominately a cash based economy.

Mindful of this, cash-based processor Ukash recently announced that Bolivia is the latest country where their vouchers will be available at convienient local shops, thus allowing Bolivian consumers to start spending online.

Bolivia also has low mobile and second lowest fixed-line teledensity. Mobile telephony suffers from poor quality of service and inadequate network capacity, and whilst premium SMS (PSMS) is not yet a viable billing mechanism in this market, pay-per-call billing via international premium rate numbers is.

In February this year Oruro became the first Bolivian entity with full mobile telephony coverage. Bolivia also plans to launch its own satellite, to be named Tupac Katari, primarily to provide telecom services in isolated rural areas.

In conclusion, if you are currently receiving traffic from this emerging market, you should consider deploying cash and phone payment methods as your primary, not secondary, billing mechanisms.

Doing so will ensure that you are in a position to capitalise on traffic that you receive from this growing market.

Splashing Tetra Fact Sheet

April 17th, 2010 by pacapao


Image : http://www.flickr.com

A Fish with Extraordinary Breeding Behavior.

The “Splashing Tetra”, “Copeina arnoldi”, is like many of the more peaceful tetras to keep, but its breeding behavior is extraordinary. This is described near the end of this article.

This lovely fish comes from South America, including the lower Amazon and Paru rivers. It grows to a length of about 3 inches (7 cm) and will live for 3 years.

Other common names it has been called include “Splash Tetra”, “Jumping Characin”, “Spraying Tetra”, “Arnolds Splashing Tetra” and “Spraying Characin”. Some other scientific names that have been used for this fish are “Copeina arnoldi”, “Copeina callolepis”, “Copeina eigenmanni”, “Pyrrhulina filamentosa” and “Pyrrhulina rachoviana”.

Water Conditions

The Splashing Tetra’s natural habitat is warm tropical. Unlike some of the fish of the upper Amazon which is sometimes fed by melted show and can have some temperature drop, the Splashing Tetra’s cannot take lower temperatures very well. The Splashing Tetra can take the 24 degrees C (75 degrees F) I usually recommend for a mixed tank of tropicals, but this is the lowest temperature I would suggest for this fish.

Neutral Ph is suitable, and a moderate amount of hardness does not seem to harm this fish.

Food

The preferred food of the Splashing Tetra is small live food, including aquatic insect larvae and Daphnia. They will also eat most normal aquarium fish foods and frozen bloodworms.

Companions

The Splashing Tetra is happy with other small peaceful fish like Neon Tetras, Cardinal Tetras, Green Neon Tetras, White Cloud Mountain Minnows, Cherry Barbs, Penguin Tetras, Pristella Tetras and Glowlight Tetras. They would probably also be OK with Siamese Fighting Fish.

I would be a little more cautious about putting them with slightly more aggressive fish like Red Eye Tetras, Silvertip Tetras, Gold Barbs, Rummy Nose Tetras, Scissortail Rasboras, Lemon Tetras, Emperor Tetras, Head and Tail Light Tetras, Glass Bloodfin Tetras, Swordtails, Platies, Mollies, Zebra Danios, Black Widow Tetras, Rosy Barbs, Tiger Barbs, Paraguay Tetras, Buenos Aires Tetras Colombian Tetras; although these may well be all right with Splashing Tetras.

Sexing

The males grow a little bigger than the females. The female, when in breeding condition, is plumper than the males. Some people believe they can see the actual eggs inside a female with eggs although I have never actually seen this myself.

Breeding

The Breeding behavior of the Splashing Tetra is extraordinary. They do not even lay the eggs in the water. A pair of Splashing Tetras will be together underneath vegetation which has a leaf a few centimeters above the water surface. Once they are ready they will jump onto the leaf, holding on for a few seconds. The female lays some eggs while the male fertilizes them. The fish drop off. This is repeated until the female has laid all her eggs. This could be up to 200 although it is usually less.

The male chases the female away; and for the next day and a half he regularly splashes the eggs on the leaf, keeping them moist. The eggs hatch and the babies are washed off by the splashing and quickly find hiding places amongst the plants in the water.

The babies are small and will eat infusoria (protozoa) at first. A good supply of small live foods is a major factor in successfully raising the babies.

If you can set up the rather specialized breeding tank, with plenty of plants, including ones with good sized leaves out of the water, this fish is a ready breeder.

Rurouni Kenshin – Fall From Grace (Episodes 75-78)

April 16th, 2010 by pacapao

Rurouni Kenshin – Fall From Grace (Episodes 75-78) We do know why Kenshin went blind and why he got his site back. Think back two disks to disk 16 and to the original fight where he was blinded; remember how the sword’s light hit him, the move called Rairyu-Sen? That was the warrior spirt of Shogo directed in a beam at Kenshin. The strength of it made him go blind. It could also be said that Kenshin’s warrior spirit at the time was weaker than Shogo’s and that is why the attack worked. In order to break the spell, his warrior spirit would have to overcome Shogo’s – watch Episode 75 again for the conclusion of the fight.

On the question of why Kenshin was fighting Shogo – it was a two fold reason – think back two disks ago, at the beginning of the Shimabara Saga. The first reason is to get rid of the “imposter” of the Hiten Mitsurugi style; there should only ever be one master and apprentice of the style at any time, and Shogo wasn’t either. The second reason was to save lives. Kenshin states repeatly that in this new era, that to persecute anyone, including the Christians would just be repeating mistakes of the past. For those reasons he fights Shogo.

Personally I like the last two filler episodes on the disk. The first one “Himura Dojo in Shimonoseki?” I thought was just a good display of the loyalty of Kenshin’s group. They don’t wany anyone to tarnish or use his name. Kenshin if you remember back in the first or second disk, said that he didn’t have a strong attachment to the name Battousai, he doesn’t mind giving it up… This just reaffirms that statement. I admit that this episode did seem to drag a bit, but overall, I don’t think it was that bad.

The fourth episode was just awesome! I am a complete fan of the completely light-hearted episodes, and this one is my most favorite one of them all! If you have watched the last episode of “Firefly’s Wish” called “Kaoru Ecstatic!” in which there is a bit of match-making and other romantic hilarity going on, then this episode is for you! I was laughing so hard throughout most of this episode. Watch for the bathing scene in the hotspring, and for the scene in which Sanosuke gives the artist his task. Oh my word, those were just hilarious. Given that this is basically a series for males (that was the targeted audience), I am glad that they throw in stuff like this – stuff that I believe was targeted towards females! Long live the Kenshin series! Media Blasters: Studio: Media Blasters Inc. Release Date: 05/28/2002 Run time: 100 minutes

Atlético Nacional de Medellín, Campeón Copa Libertadores 1989 (PEPELOTAS)

April 15th, 2010 by pacapao

En la década de los ya famosos ´80 comienza el despegue del fútbol colombiano. En 1987 obtenía el 3er lugar en la Copa América disputada en la Argentina, frente al seleccionado local, con Maradona & Cía. Pero fue en 1989 cuando Atlético Nacional de Medellín rompe todos los esquemas en la Copa Libertadores de aquel años. Hasta esa fecha la Libertadores estaba reservada a los equipos del Atlántico (Argentina, Brasil, Uruguay y Paraguay), pero ante el gran Olimpia de Paraguay logra torcer la historia, en una dramática definición a penales, donde René Higuita detiene 4 penales, Atlético Nacional de Medellín abraza el sueño de muchos equipos del pacífico y se transforma por vez primera en Campeón de la Copa Libertadores de América. Años después Colo Colo de Chile, Once Caldas de Colombia y recientemente Liga Deportiva Universitaria de Ecuador tendrían el mismo privilegio. 5-4 fue el resultado final y los nombres de René Higuita, Andrés Escobar, Arnoldo Usuriaga y Leonel Álvarez engalan las vitrinas de los nuevos éxitos del fútbol con aroma a café el colombiano.

Soccer Dribbling – The Move That Made Leo Messi Famous

April 14th, 2010 by pacapao


Image : http://www.flickr.com

There’s no question to every body that loves football (soocer), loves to see a world class dribbler. The player that can run past defenders with ease. They set the crowd a light, the fans want to see them, young player want to be them. Every player wants to know their secret, the simple tricks is hard work, dedication and sacrifices. During your football training (soccer training) either individually or as a team you must try to get as many touches on the ball as possible. There are a vast a ray tricks and dummies world class players use to beat there opponents, but the truth is that you really only need to master a couple to be an effective dribbler. Look at Leo Messi consistently goes past defenders like they were standing still, the weird thing about Messi is that defenders know what his going to do but they still can’t stop it. Why because his perfected and worked hard to hone his technique.

The Body Swerve

An all time favorite of Messi. You start by dribbling at slow to moderate pace toward a defender, then feint both with body and feet to take the ball one way. You drop your shoulder, leaning to take the ball right or left, then quickly changing direction and accelerating away from the defender.

You should first practice during your soccer training sessions by your dribbling toward another ball, cone or leaf it doesn’t matter. perform the move slowly, and as you start to feel more comfortable start to increase the speed, while also keeping an eye on making sure that you will put the defender off balance by your feint. The quicker running pace you can perform this move effectively the more you will have the defender on his heels making it easier to put him or her off balance. The next key step is the acceleration away from the defender, you don’t want to be repeatedly beating the same defender, thats why acceleration after you beat the defender is so crucial. You must learn to perform this move with both feet, this will make unpredictable to defenders.

It’s important that you continue to hone and maintain your skills, during your soccer training. Never become complacent, always strive to be better, thats why players like Messi are the best in world, because the worked harder and smarter then anyone else to be the best. The more you put into your soccer training the more you will get out of it.

Futbol Club Barcelona

April 13th, 2010 by pacapao


Image : http://www.flickr.com

With supporters of FC Barcelona located all around the world and a massive global following, it will come as no surprise to most people that one priority for many visitors to Barcelona is to see the team in action at the Nou Camp.

Interest has become especially keen over the last few years when players like Ronaldinho, Messi and Eto’o have displayed the kind of on-pitch magic that makes the final result almost irrelevant. Luckily for supporters and the team though, this spectacular football goes beyond just show and the team is able to score too.

The result of this is that Barcelona have won the Spanish La Liga for the last 2 seasons and took home the Champions League trophy in 2006 and the result means that Futbol Club Barcelona is a bigger draw than ever.

The club’s most eagerly awaited matches are against Real Madrid, the archrival of Barcelona. The matches are always hard fought, with the honour of each club at stake and the matches are always sold out quickly. Other more recent rivals include Chelsea after a number of clashes over the last few years in Champions League, and after the Champions League defeat of Arsena, that club can surely be added to the list of arch rivals.

With tickets going on sale to the public just 2 weeks before a match and 130,000 club members vying for 98,000 tickets it often makes sense to book from one of the ticket agents with a guaranteed allocation for each match.

David Leigh lives in Barcelona and works on several websites covering a range of topics, including one that allows you to buy Barcelona FC tickets online.

Ronaldinho VS Cristiano Ronaldo – Who is Better?

April 12th, 2010 by pacapao


Image : http://www.flickr.com

Cristiano Ronaldo and Ronaldinho have both displayed their phenomenal skills, audacity in their style of play and their ability to change a football game in a matter of seconds. Both have been seen as the best player on the planet, both have displayed how deadly they are when attacking a defender and both have guided their club teams in Manchester United and Barcelona respectively to back to back domestic titles and the prestigious Champions league title. Both players are an asset to their respective clubs and both have been the centre of world cup controversy.

There isn’t much to separate these two major players in world soccer, however the Brazilian Ronaldinho has been named both FIFA World Player of the Year and World Soccer Player of the Year in 2005 and 2006, European Footballer of the Year in 2005, UEFA Club Footballer of the Year for the season 2005-06 and he won the coveted FIFA World Cup in 2002 with Brazil in Korea and Japan. In comparison the Portuguese winger, Cristiano Ronaldo has been named PFA Players’ Player of the Year in both 2007, 2008, PFA Young Player of the Year in 2007; he also placed third in FIFA World Player of the Year and World Soccer Player of the Year in 2007.

In terms of accolades the Brazilian midfield maestro has the edge; however the Brazilian is in the twilight of his career at age 28, while the Portuguese sensation is still very much in the spring of his football career at age 23. The Portuguese also has the opportunity to be the most expensive footballer in the history of the game if he signs a contract with the galacticos, to play at the Santiago Bernabeu next season for a record transfer fee of 90 million pounds.

With the world at their feet both players will be looking to prove that they are without question the best player in the game when their respective season begins. After a terrible season at Barcelona plagued with injury problems which saw him missing most of Barcelona’s games in 2007-2008, the Brazilian will be looking to reassert himself as one of world football’s top players and erase any doubt that may linger in the minds of his fans. The Portuguese will be looking to repeat the form he showed in the season 2007-2008 and cement his skills in football history as the world’s best player.

Glasgow Rangers Football Club

April 10th, 2010 by pacapao


Image : http://www.flickr.com

The 1919/20 season heralded the dawn of a new era for Glasgow Rangers as manager William Wilton and number two William Struth initiated a Glasgow Rangers dominance that was to last until the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939. Though winning this season with 31 wins out of 42 games and scoring 106 goals, it was overshadowed by the subsequent death of manager, William Wilton.

William Wilton

When the Scottish League was formed in 1890, Wilton became its first treasurer as Glasgow Rangers shared the title with Dumbarton.

The season before he was appointed to his dual-role,Glasgow Rangers had achieved the first ever 100% league record, winning all 18 games and scoring 79 goals. No team before or since has ever achieved the same, although several teams have gone unbeaten in a league season since, including Arsenal in 2004.

Rangers were to win 8 league titles with Wilton as manager

Sadly,Wilton did not see the full extent of the team’s success. The day after the final match of the season in 1920, he left or the Bank Holiday, which he planned to spend at Gourock, but he died in a boating accident on the first day of his holiday.

Taking over the manager’s job was William Struth, Struth guided Glasgow Rangers to a further 14 titles before the war. This period was also noteworthy for the attendances. On the 2nd January 1939 a British league record was broken as 118,567 fans turned out to watch Glasgow Rangers beat Glasgow Celtic in the traditional new year holiday old firm match.

Glasgow Rangers is a great football club with a great history.
