PARIS Nike Air Max 97 Bianche Scontate , May 30 (Xinhua) -- Noel le Graet, president of the French Football Federeation (FFF) confirmed Saturday to L'Equipe that he voted for Sepp Blatter in Friday's FIFA presidential re-election.
""I voted for Blatter,"" he said. ""For me, it was the best choice between him and Prince Ali.""
Amid tumultuous times for soccer's world governing body Nike Air Max 97 Silver Bullet Scontate , Blatter, who'd been at the helm since June 1998, was granted the presidency for another four years since the only challenger Ali bin Al Hussein of Jordan withdrew after trailing 133-73 in the first ballot.
The 79-year-old Swiss faced confidential crisis after the arrest of seven high-profile FIFA officials on Wednesday by Swiss police in Zurich on the request of U.S. authorities, with allegations of corruption.
""Since we won the bid for organization of the 2019 women's World Cup Nike Air Max 97 Oro Scontate , we worked very well with the employees of FIFA,"" Le Graet explained.
The French boss had told local TV ""Europe 1"" the same reason of him supporting Blatter before Friday's election, but modified to say he might need more thoughts on it after UEFA head Michel Platini asked Blatter to step down as FIFA president late on Thursday.
Platini told media in Zurich that he'd ask Blatter to step down and urged national associations to vote for Al Hussein.
""Ali, if UEFA had not voted for him Nike Air Max 97 Verde Scontate , he would not have much of a voice,"" Le Graet, who had once said Platini could be the best choice for the presidency of FIFA, commented Saturday.

UNITED NATIONS， Dec. 9 (Xinhua) -- The United Nations relief wing has reported that it allocated 58 million U.S. dollars through the Humanitarian Pooled Fund to bolster life-saving activities across the crisis-gripped Middle East country， UN officials said here Friday.
The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) made the allocation amid soaring malnutrition and collapsing basic services in Yemen， a staggering 18.8 million people need humanitarian assistance， the officials said.
According to the UN agency， among the millions of people in need， some 10.3 million require urgent assistance. Moreover， three million people are displaced.
In addition， malnutrition has soared more than 60 percent since 2015， affecting more than three million people， including 460，000 severely malnourished children under the age of five， OCHA reported.
The Humanitarian Pooled Fund is preparing to finance 31 projects in the sectors of food， nutrition， water， sanitation， and health， in order to address the crisis and assist at least three million people in 15 priority governorates and under-served governorates， such as Shabwah， Dhamar， Al-Jawf and Marib.
Nine national non-governmental organizations (NGOs) (7 million U.S. dollars)， 15 international NGOs (28 million U.S. dollars) and six UN agencies (23 million U.S. dollars) will implement the projects. In addition， nine local responders receive support via direct funding with a total of 3.8 million U.S. dollars granted to 28 national NGO's， which includes training and capacity building.
CHA also expressed gratitude for generous donations from Canada， Ireland， Germany， Netherlands， Spain， Sweden， Switzerland and the United Kingdom. However， it stressed that scale of the conflict in Yemen will require more resources and urgent aid， as the 2016 Yemen Humanitarian Response Plan is currently only 58 percent funded.

LOS ANGLESE Nike Air Max 97 Blu Scontate , Nov. 4 (Xinhua) -- To Hollywood's surprise, Chinese films are increasingly enjoying box office success. The Chinese comedy "Never Say Die" has brought in an impressive 326 million U.S. dollars worldwide to date, marking another triumph after "Wolf Warriors II" piled up 877 million U.S. dollars box office.
"Never Say Die" opened worldwide at the end of September and Variety reported that "during its Saturday-Sunday opening weekend, 'Never Say Die' took in 46 million U.S. dollars in its first two days in China."
According to TheNumbers Nike Air Max 97 Ultra Scontate , the overwhelming majority of its worldwide grosses were racked up in China's domestic box office, giving it the record-breaking national cum it needed to move it up to the "#1 Highest Grossing Comedy in a Single Market."
It beat out such U.S. studio comedy blockbusters as Ben StillerRobert DeNiro's dysfunctional family comedy, "Meet the Fockers" (279 million U.S. dollars), Bradley CooperZach Galifianakis' bad boy "Hangover" (277 million U.S. dollars) Nike Air Max 97 Undefeated Scontate , Ben Stiller's fun fantasy, "Night at the Museum" (250 million U.S. dollars) and Jackie Chan's rib-tickler, "Kung Fu Yoga" (250 million U.S. dollars).
The film's global tally has also earned its entry into the rarified ranks of the "Top Ten All Time International Box Office for Comedy Movies."
That's quite an impressive feat for a plucky little underdog sports comedy that only cost 10 million U.S. dollars to make.
"Never Say Die" is a Chinese, body-swapping comedy about a male mixed-martial arts boxer and a high-profile female journalist who mysteriously switch bodies after an electrically-charged kiss.
Some of its runaway success can be attributed to an avid Nike Air Max 97 Ultra '17 Scontate , pre-existing fanbase in China, developed when it began as a popular Mahua FunAge stageplay of the same name. Years of instantaneous audience feedback helped hone its robust humor to maximum effect.
Mahua FunAge, a leading theatrical troupe in China, known for its quirky humor and taking on timely issues Nike Air Max 97 Scontate , has staged over 1200 performances of 15 plays and 2 musicals throughout China since 2003.
The play was adapted and directed for the screen by the successful writer-director comedy team, Yang Song and Chiyu Zhang, who've managed to create an adroit transition from stage to screen while displaying a firm grasp of the cinematic medium.
Comedy doesn't usually travel well. What serves up guffaws for one culture can fall on . |
