Roger Federer will partner former Wimbledon champion Martina Hingis for Switzerland in the mixed doubles at the 2016 Olympics in Rio Federer, 34, and Hingis last played mixed doubles together at the Hopman Cup in Australia in 2001. The 17-time Grand Slam champion said he is "really excited". "I looked up to her when I was younger, I thought she was the most unbelievable talent," added Federer, who is a year younger than Hingis.  "She's almost my age and she was winning Grand Slams while I was still at the national tennis centre and I couldn't believe how good she was." Hingis, 35, has won five Grand Slam singles titles in her career, including Wimbledon in 1997 at the age of 16.  She came out of retirement for a second time in 2013  and has since enjoyed great doubles success, winning five titles in 2015, including the mixed doubles and the women's doubles at the US Open.  Source: bbc.com/sport

Barbaig community should reopen the case in the international court for retribution|" A disastrous project funded by the Canadian Government is destituting an African people By George Monbiot.

Today the last of the spirit mounds of the Basotu Plains, the Barabaig’s critical wet season grazing lands, are being ploughed up by a development pr

Mt Hanang / Mlima wa tatu Tanzania Wilaya ya Hanang ina bahati ya kuwa na mlima wa tatu Tanzania (Mt Hanang 3,417m) baada ya (Mt Kilimanjaro 5,895m ) na (Mt Meru 4,565m) , milima yote mitatu ikiwa kanda ya kaskazini mwa Tanzania. Mwenyezi mungu ametujalia utajiri wa misitu, wanyama na maji, lakini binadamu wamekuwa mafisadi na wababe, kufikia hatua ya kubadili matumizi ya utajiri huu kwa kutumia mabavu, pesa na rushwa.

Hawa hapa wanaolima Bonde la mto Endamanang lililopo Nangwa - Hanang kwa kulindwa na polisi wa Hanang ; (1)Nino Yahhi, (2)Sikukuu Axwesso, (3)Damasi Yatosh, (4)Disdery Yatosh,  (5)Izraeli
