I have been so distant with myself lately. Like i even do not know about myself. I have asked myself since a fortnight ago, “What do I really want with my future? What kind of man am I going to be? Am I going to sit aside and watch others tell their stories and let mine disappear in the richest knowledge bank in the world, my grave?” I do not know about you or the kind of issues you are going through. Everyone has his/her own demons to deal with. But that does not mean I should not live life. That does not mean i should find my purpose for living and neither

AN ACT LEGALIZING INDUSTRIAL HEMP.
A bill to end hemp prohibition in Connecticut has become law without the governor’s signature. The measure was passed by the state’s Senate unanimously 36 to 0, and was approved by the state’s House of Representatives with a 142 to 2 vote. The new law – which goes into effect on July 1st – ends hemp prohibition in its entirety, removing hemp from the state’s list of controlled substances.

Sacco’s and Chama’s have a become a very powerful financial institutions and backgrounds in the African economies. As a matter of fact they have opened up most people to general accounting rules and more people have become aware of savings.

SPEECH BY CEC-LIVESTOK AT THE LAUNCH OF TAITA TAVETA COUNTY LIVESTOCK MULTIPLICATION PROGRAM AT LMD BACHUMA ON 3/3/2014.
This task has not been easy for this department. The Livestock sector is one of the sectors which used to receive very little funding from the national government. The number of technical staff has kept on dwindling at the expense of direct extension services to our people. The infrastructure we have in the county is at deplorable state. When I visited this station in August last year I found it was scrub and bush, there was no water, no sign of life, and so on. The only sign of life was elephant dung and destruction to fences and water points by the same as they were searching for water. However, I had a sigh of relief when I saw some little development in terms of a feed lot and some one or two machineries courtesy of the Economic Stimulus Program under the Ministry of Livestock and Fisheries Development.
I also learnt that Bachuma Holding Ground has been selected as one of the Disease Free Zones in the country and has been chosen to be the first in establishing it so that it can match the international standards of a disease free zone.
Ladies and gentlemen, we also have the Mwatate Livestock Multiplication farm. Again when I visited it-it was also in a deplorable condition in fact worse than Bachuma holding ground. Now here I am with my staff and our Governor has already announced different livestock are arriving soon in our county….
…However, with the support from our Governor, early last month we managed to restock this station/farm with 78 heads of boran and sahiwal breed of cattle, that is 18 bulls and 60 heifers. Also 90 galla goats have been procured that is 10 bucks and 80 does. This is far below the carrying capacity. We project to gradually increase the carrying capacity through improvement of pasture production and utilization, intensive reseeding , improved water supply to strategic grazing areas, rehabilitation of farm structures, staff houses, fencing, firebreaks and so on.

Malaika Fest
‘Malaika Fest’ Set to become a Kenyan Brand?
The residents of Rong’e Juu Location and Taita Taveta County in general
are bracing themselves for a major ‘Mwazindika dance’ and a heartfelt
rendition of Fadhili William ballads come Saturday, May 25th, 2013 to
mark the late music icon’s 12th Anniversary since his demise.Fadhili William, to whom the Kenyan ‘Malaika Festival’ is a tribute, is
the acclaimed author-composer of the World-famous song ‘Malaika’ whose
original composition the late South African songstress Miriam Makeba
erroneously and, unfortunately, attributed to a Tanzanian. Other
Artistes, like Benin’s Angelique Kidjo, also, have unwittingly repeated
Makeba’s original ‘sin’. Starting with ‘Ukifika Taita’-arguably Fadhili’s
most evergreen Kiswahili song in praise of Taita Hills and their lush
pastures that is gradually becoming one of the Festival’s signature tunes
besides ‘Malaika’, the fete promises to deliver aesthetic, sound and
culinary tastes that have so far characterized the growing Malaika
Festival.In February 2011, although curious revelers at the Grand event were
initially at pains to comprehend the real meaning of the unfolding
cultural event being held in Rong’e Juu, Taita Taveta County after a
seven-year hiatus since its last performance in Nairobi City, the sheer
sound of ‘Malaika’ the song and the unmistakable voice of the late
Fadhili William, served to re-kindle old memories of the departed
songster who caused ripples in Kenya, East Africa and beyond from the late
50s to the mid-seventies. But, the presence of ‘banana chapatis’, Kimanga,
Kipunde, Mkango, the local Taita brew ‘M’bangara’ and ‘Mwasina’ and, the
eminent ‘Mwazindika’ Drums and ‘Kishawi’ dances all went a long way to
convince the patrons of the sustained blend of Fadhili William’s legacy
and faltering Taita cultural practices which serve as a reminder not
only of Fadhili William’s rich music legacy but, also, of his deep
Taita roots.Strangely though, at first, some local Christians had thought of
‘Malaika Fest’ as a form of the long-forgotten ”ancestor worship’
among the Taita, before they could safely conclude that the event was no
more than a pure celebration of the life and music times of their own
departed son, whose remains they wished they had interred in his Rong’e
ancestral home, instead of far away in Nairobi’s Cosmopolitan Kariokor
Cemetery.Fadhili William had grown up and settled in the Eastland’s side of
Nairobi, before moving to the United States of America in 1983, where he
was to remain for thirteen years.In his younger days, the late Fadhili
composed lyrics and sang in his Taita language, besides Kiswahili and
English. ‘Niko Kireti’, ‘Ngamba Niagesha Wasi’, and ‘Munilaguye Saru’ for
instance, are some of his Taita songs whose rendition caused even aging
nostalgic female fans to gyrate and sweat out at the height of the last
event which is gradually gaining local acceptance and, fanatics. Last
year’s event attracted a huge crowd, both young and old, with host School
Mwanyambo Secondary School students leading the way through their
scintillating drama, songs and dancing styles performed in their
multi-colored School uniforms. To cap it all, even aspiring politicians,
including Taita Taveta Governor aspirant Engineer John Mtuta Mruttu,
Women Representatives Joyce Wanjala Lay and Anna Nyambu, got pulled
away from another social event held nearby, to throbbing Malaika Festival
sounds and Mwazindika Drums.In the unfolding ‘branding’ of Malaika Festival, Kenyan style, whose
Fadhili William image is, singularly, its most conspicuous mark besides
the red, cream and pink colors associated with the late musician, the
sounds, traditional foods, dances and surrounding scenic beauty of the
Taita Hills closely resembling the Swiss Alps, all combine to create
what is fast becoming the Kenyan ‘Malaika Fest’ brand promise with all
its trappings!“It is not complete without first slaughtering a Bull for us to feast
on!”, says an old Fadhili William fan during the climax of last year’s
festivity. Although he alone openly voiced his concern, this apparently,
was the general feeling of most fans of the celebratory occasion. “This
will be in keeping with the old customs of remembering our departed
souls!”, added Mzee Silvano Nyambu, a retired police officer from Rong’e
Juu who also plays the Mwazindika Drums as a pastime. But, will this too,
become a future expectation?As a pointer of better things to come, the Organising Team of the
forthcoming Third edition of the County Festival has given notice, through
the aptly-framed theme of ‘Promoting Peace & National Cohesion through
Music”, of the full Kenyan brand potential comprised in appealing
patriotic songs like ‘Kenya Nchi Yangu’ and ”Harambe Harambe’ in which
Fadhili contributed both lyrics and guitar works, and dances by various
groups from across the cosmopolitan Taita Taveta County representing “the
face of Kenya”, spiced, of course, by the everlasting ‘Malaika’ song,
if the Festival Team’s appeal to local Corporate sponsors including
Kenya Commercial Bank, Silent Guest Resort and Wildlife Works, bears more
fruit.Needless to say, however, guarantees of peace and security, besides the
availability of traditional Taita foods, drinks, and Mwazindika Drums
and Taveta Uruasi dances and foods, as well as, possibly, other Kenyan
sounds, will be uppermost as “givens” or “cravings in the minds of
tourists, both foreign and local expected at the Fete, which was
initially held in Nairobi but subsequently “devolved” to Taita Taveta
County three years ago where it is set to be anchored in more fertile
ground. Ironically, although the event’s devolution to Taita Taveta
County was aimed at boosting the County’s potentially rich cultural
profile, it may very well, fortuitously, become a ‘Kenyan Brand’ whose
popular ‘malaika.co.ke’ website domain already reflects its future trend.Duncan Mwanyumba

Sorry for the huge review, but I’m really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it’s the right choice for you.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.
