NAIROBI, Kenya — This Wednesday, Ben Affleck testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee as an expert on Africa. Yes, Ben Affleck: actor-director Ben Affleck, Argo Ben Affleck and, lest we forget, J-Lo Ben Affleck. Ben Affleck, whose tuxedo stands a decent chance of being analyzed on live television during the Oscars this Sunday. He was invited to guide American lawmakers on their policy toward the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Ridiculous, right? Actually, no. Affleck has been involved in eastern Congo for years now. In 2010, he set up an organization called the Eastern Congo Initiative after making repeated visits to the region. It raises money and funnels it to local civil society organizations. Affleck’s commitment and sustained engagement means that if you’re looking for an advocate who has some clue about what’s actually going on and doesn’t need to take his lines from a teleprompter, you could do a whole lot worse.
If you’re going to be a celebrity with a cause in Africa — and sometimes it seems like the continent has been colonized by the A-Z listers — you could do worse then follow Affleck’s lead. A lot worse.
To help you separate the serious from the silly, we present GlobalPost’s Africa Celebrity Do-Gooder Scorecard.
Note: this list is not exhaustive, as it appears to be an unspoken rule that pretty much every celebrity has to say something about Africa at some point. Feel free to tweet your own suggestions using the hashtag #StarsLoveAfrica.
Ben Affleck – Congo/peace
Score: *****
Quiet commitment, strong focus
He does it quietly (the Affleck name isn’t anywhere to be found on the ECI website) and with an unusual degree of humility for a celebrity. Academics, analysts and self-declared experts may scoff at his credentials but he’s spent time on the ground and has shown commitment over time. He’s cajoled American lawmakers before speaking to Congress in 2012 and when he speaks it attracts attention to a place often ignored.

George Clooney – Sudan/peace
Score: *****
Sustained engagement, money where his mouth is
Clooney has shown long-term commitment to Sudan’s restive regions, first in Darfur, then southern Sudan, the disputed territory of Abyei and rebel-held Nuba Mountains. With his own money, he funds the Satellite Sentinel Project [http://www.satsentinel.org/] which tracks and exposes war crimes and human rights abuses along the contested border between South Sudan and Sudan. His protests against President Omar al-Bashir’s regime have seen him (and his father) arrested in Washington.

Mia Farrow – Darfur/peace
Score: ****
Sustained engagement, emotional investment
The actress and ex-wife of Woody Allen has invested herself in Darfur for years and visited the conflict-riddled western region of Sudan in 2004. She’s also spoken on a range of other examples of mass atrocity and manmade human suffering in Africa and elsewhere, although she’s awfully free and easy with the G-word (genocide, that is). There’s little doubting her sincerity and long-standing commitment, but it also begs the question of how effective celebrity-led advocacy is: after all the years of attention and concern the conflict in Darfur rumbles on regardless.

Oprah Winfrey – South Africa/education
Score: ***
Big investment showed money can’t buy everything
The television host and actress opened her $ 40 million Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls (zero points for humility here) in South Africa in 2007. Within a year it was mired in allegations of sexual and physical abuse. After this rocky start the academy got its house in order and has been doing what it was supposed to do: give poor South African girls the opportunity for a better life.

Bono & Geldof – Africa/ending poverty
Score: **
Aid lobby pioneers, “c###s”
The modern celebrity obsession with Africa, or at least being seen in Africa, can be traced back to Bob Geldof’s 1984 Band Aid song and 1985’s Live Aid concert. The U2 frontman and the Irish rocker have long been outspoken activists and advocates for aid to Africa roping fellow celebrities, the rich and powerful into their efforts. Neither are shy of using Africa to make a bit of cash with Bono and his wife advertising Louis Vitton luggage and Geldof setting up a private equity fund. Their brand of musical money-raising to end poverty rubs a lot of people the wrong way but undoubtedly the most invective-filled response comes courtesy of British comedy writer Jane Bussman whose stand-up show “Bono and Geldof Are C###s” sold out both the Sydney Opera House and London’s Frontline Club last year.

Madonna – Malawi/education
Score: *
Half-baked idea, poorly executed
Oh dear. When faced with a torrent of criticism for her preferential quicky adoption of her first Malawian child, a boy called David Banda in 2006, Madonna set up a charity to build an academy in Malawi to improve the lives of those not lucky enough to be rescued by a global music star. The charity all-but collapsed in a riot of corruption allegations and name-calling. Madonna’s falling-out with Malawi seemed complete when State House called her a “bully” (and much else besides). Others, including writer Binyavanga Wainaina, then weighed in with their own scathing assessments of Madonna’s attempted do-goodery. Today the charity limps on, building primary schools and sponsoring kids in Malawi.

Vivienne Westwood – Kenya/fashion (yes, fashion)
Score: *
Wrong-headed
The flame-haired enfant terrible of fashion, dressmaker to the ‘70s punk scene, and designer of vertiginous footware visited a Nairobi slum a few years ago and vamping it up alongside models in a shoot for her Ethical Fashion Initiative, which pays local folk in Kibera to stitch together handbags to sell to wealthy Westerners (for around $ 200). In our humble opinion, it is hard to see how any of this offers the seamstresses of Kibera much more than the opportunity to be the authentically slummy backdrop to a photo shoot.

Elizabeth McGovern – Sierra Leone/Christianity
Score: -
Clueless, embarrassing for all involved
Downton Abbey’s Lady Cora went to Sierra Leone last year as an ambassador for child-sponsoring evangelical Christian charity World Vision. It did not go well. She became a laughing-stock after a journalist from London’s Daily Telegraph invited along to cover her trip reported that she couldn’t tell the difference between Darfur (war-torn western region of Sudan) and Dakar (seaside capital of peaceful Senegal). Nor did she know much about the country she was visiting or the charity she was with. Amanda Taub and Kate Cronin-Furman of ‘Wronging Rights’ comprehensively shredded the whole sorry affair in this article for Warscapes.

The acquisition of personalized biker shirts is not difficult at all these days. These can easily be purchased from both regular and online stores. However, the problem is that they are extremely expensive. So if you truly want to get your hands on customized shirts, try designing them by yourself. Customizing shirts at home does not need anything apart from your shirt, colors and a thought out design.
Bikers are generally found using custom shirts as a way to give out various messages. It is more of like an undying need in them to get their message across to the world. If you think that customizing your shirt is going to be extremely dangerous, than you are highly mistaken. With everything in place, it should not take much time at all. For starters, you must have a plain shirt in your cupboard. But if you do not, than its time for you to go shopping and get yourself one. Make sure that the shirt is either white, or has a dull background. This is because it needs to be used as base and dark colors are just not right.
Before paying up for the shirt that you have chosen, make sure that you read through its tag. Try to workout whether the shirt is color-friendly or not. You need to acknowledge the fact that in order for your design to look good, the base needs to work fine with colors and paints.
The next thing that you need to purchase is fabric paint. These can easily be purchased for a fabric paint shop. Work out which colors you wish to use in order to personalize your shirt. Paper colors must always be avoided as these would destroy the appearance of your clothes. Focus on getting the best fabric paints instead.
Once both of these items have been purchased come back home and browse the internet for cool designs. If you wish to, than you have the option to formulate your own designs. In such a case, instantly grab a pencil and paper and jot down exactly what you want to have on your shirt.
Instead of focusing on lots of designs and coming up with various drawings, you can even just place text over your custom biker shirt. The options in terms of design over these shirts are limitless. Go through as many of them as you can and then decide which one you wish to go for.
As soon as you decide the drawing, design or text that you want on your shirt, take the pencil and draw the same over your shirt. This would need exceptionally high artistic skills. Just in case something goes wrong at this point, your shirt would go to waste so make sure that it is neat and tidy and dark enough for your fabric colors to be filled into.
Now that the outline has been drawn, grab hold of your fabric paints and start filling them into the outline you just drew. Handle this very professionally or you just might end up with blotches of paint on your biker shirts. Let the paint dry and then iron it out to give it that neat and tidy appearance.

If you have no use for the bags, bring them to consignment shops and you can trust that someone will have a liking for it. Just be artistic and clever in promoting the purses so you can recuperate its cost.
Start by gathering the bags. Categorize them by their style, design and value. It would be easier to determine the price for the bags this way.

Buyers would not be impressed when you are selling a defective purse.

Having given up on trying to persuade Americans that taking guns away from law-abiding citizens will reduce the murder rate, Democrats have turned to their usual prohibitionary argument: “Why does anyone need (an assault weapon, a 30-round magazine, a semiautomatic, etc., etc.)?”
Phony conservative Joe Manchin, who won his U.S. Senate seat in West Virginia with an ad showing him shooting a gun, said, “I don’t know anyone (who) needs 30 rounds in a clip.”
CNN’s Don Lemon, who does not fit the usual profile of the avid hunter and outdoorsman, demanded, “Who needs an assault rifle to go hunting?”
Fantasist Dan Rather said, “There is no need to have these high-powered assault weapons.”
And prissy Brit Piers Morgan thought he’d hit on a real showstopper with, “I don’t know why anyone needs an assault rifle.” Of course, where he comes from, policemen carry wooden sticks.
Since when do Americans have to give the government an explanation for why they “need” something? If that’s the test, I can think of a whole list of things I don’t know why anyone needs.
I don’t know why anyone needs to burn an American flag at a protest. The point could be made just as well verbally.
I don’t know why anyone needs to read about the private lives of celebrities. Why can’t we shut down the gossip rags?
I don’t know why anyone needs to vote. One vote has never made a difference in any federal election.
I don’t know why anyone needs to bicycle in a city.
I don’t know why anyone needs to have anal sex at a bathhouse. I won’t stop them, but I don’t know why anyone needs to do that.
I don’t know why anyone needs to go hiking in national parks, where they’re constantly falling off cliffs, being buried in avalanches and getting lost — all requiring taxpayer-funded rescue missions.
I don’t know why Karen Finley needs to smear herself with chocolate while reading poems about “love.” But not only do Democrats allow that, they made us pay for it through the National Endowment for the Arts.
In fact, I don’t know why anyone needs to do any of the things that offend lots of people, especially when I have to pay for it. I don’t mind paying for national monuments and the ballet, but if “need” is a legitimate argument, there’s no end to the activities that can be banned, forget “not subsidized by Ann.”
If your dream career is to become a model, then you need to understand the important role that Dallas modeling agencies will play in your career. An agency will help you locate profitable modeling jobs that you fit the criterion for. They will work with you to hone your skills, helping you launch your career to the caliber that you want it to be at.
There are different types of agencies that take on different types of models. The first thing you need to do is identify what category that you fit into. Some of the most prevalent categories are female models, male models, children models, and plus size models. Once you have identified the category that you fit into, then you can start searching for an agency that can help you launch your career.
It is important that you have a career goal in mind for the career that you are in the midst of entering into. For example, if you want to be the next up and coming plus size model, you need to look for agencies that are known for hiring these types of people. If you try to apply to the wrong type of agency that does not fit your modeling category, you could end up getting turned away.
You want to work with an agency that is willing to accept you as you are. If an agency tells you that you need to change certain things about your looks in order to land a job, move onto the next. An agency that fits into your appropriate category will be more than obliged to take you on as you are.
After you have correctly identified the proper category that you fit into, then you can start scouting for an agency that is located around your area. There are many different ways that you can go about locating an agency. You can find an agency through referrals from other models that are presently employed by the agency, or you can search on the internet for a few agencies around your area also.
If you decide to take the internet scouting route to help you locate an agency you need to be careful. There are a lot of scams on the internet, and you could end up being pushed into one. You should never contact an agency that reaches out to be prospective models by posting ads in classified websites or placing posters around public areas.
Once you have successfully located an agency that is legitimate and fits your criterion, the next thing you will need to do is fill out an application. The application portion of applying for an agency can be extremely tedious and stressful. You are going to have to relay personal information about yourself, as well as include some professional photographs with your application.
Choosing to become a model is hard work. You have to be willing to go after your dreams, in order to make something of yourself in this type of career. Getting in contact with Dallas modeling agencies that are on the lookout for models is going to be your best bet at landing lucrative jobs in the field.
