Pan from spectators to dignitaries in the Maracana Stadium STORYLINE Fireworks exploded and Rio de Janeiro's cherished Maracana soccer stadium erupted into a throbbing samba rhythm as Brazil launched the Pan American Games on Friday. President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and a crowd of nearly 90-thousand packed the stadium to officially open the Games, the biggest sporting event in Rio de Janeiro since the World Cup in 1950 and a test of its ability to become a major player on the global sports stage. Security was so strict however many fans could not get into the newly renovated stadium in time. The ceremony began late with many seats empty, and hundreds of would-be participants stuck in lines stretching for streets outside, waiting to pass metal detectors and inspection. Thousands of fireworks exploded from 127 launching points in the stadium and one thousand lights with computer-coordinated effects coloured the field, all to the pulsating anthem called "Share the Energy" composed for the games. Among the dignitaries at the opening was Governor General of Canada, Michaelle Jean, who remained on her feet waving and cheering as the Canadian delegation marched around the stadium The President of Panama, Martin Torrijos, was also present during the ceremony. The Rio 2007 Pan American games will run from 13-29 July with more than five thousand athletes competing from 42 countries. About 3.5 billion (b) reals (1.7 billion (b) US dollars) was spent to prepare the city for the games, several times more than originally projected. The remaining lack of infrastructure at some of the venues however upset some fans. Traffic jams and difficulties buying food and finding bathrooms inside the venues prompted about one hundred fans to protest to organisers on Friday. More than one thousand doping tests will be conducted at the Pan Ams, according to the World Anti-Doping Agency. At least two hundred have already been completed with three Mexican athletes and a Brazilian volleyball player suspended after testing positive.

His sentiment was shared by people from all corners of the world. A guest from Germany said Boyle's vision "was one of the warmest opening ceremonies" while Brazilian Tutty Gomes said he enjoyed being at the ceremony and was hoping "to attend the Games in Rio in 2016."

Mid of sign showing caricature of Pena Nieto wearing dress, with breasts representing logos from Televisa, Mexico's largest television network 17. Tilt down from Angel of Independence monument to wide of demonstration STORYLINE The front-runner in Mexico's July 1 presidential elections has rallied tens of thousands of supporters at his first mass campaign event in the country's capital, saying he will respect Mexico's democracy and govern for all if elected. Candidate Enrique Pena Nieto is running for the Institutional Revolutionary Party, which governed Mexico for 71 years until 2000. His candidacy has sparked protests in the capital, which is governed by the leftist Democratic Revolution Party. Another anti-Pena Nieto protest filled the city centre Sunday, as thousands marched against what they said would be a return to the authoritarian past. The candidate struck a conciliatory note at his campaign rally in a crowded football stadium, saying he was part of a new generation and wouldn't return to old practices. He said he will respect Mexico's newfound democracy and govern for all if elected. Pena Nieto urged his supporters to use their vote to "overcome this critical phase of economic stagnation, social gap and violence" in Mexico. The Aztec Stadium has a capacity of about 105,000 spectators and it appeared to be almost full with only the upper ring of seats empty. Other parties, such as the ruling National Action Party, have had trouble filling stadiums. Supporters were mainly trucked in by busloads from the surrounding State of Mexico, where Pena Nieto served as governor until last year. The stadium was awash in red and white shirts, the party's campaign colours. Without referring to his opponents by name, Pena Nieto criticised the National Action Party and the Party of the Democratic Revolution candidates. "One party represents more of the same: insecurity and violence, unemployment and more poverty for Mexico. The other represents the authoritarian populism, which is not accountable and does not respect rules, and despises the (government) institutions," he said. Meanwhile, thousands of anti-Pena Nieto protesters gathered in the heart of Mexico City to demonstrate against what they claimed would be a return to the past under the candidate, who leads all major polls in the race. "He is a candidate who represents the imposition by the television networks and a very closed group of power," said Maria Regueiro. In it's seven decades in power, the PRI often governed by a mix of hand-out programs, repression and vote fraud.
