South Africa must be the luckiest country on planet during the current global financial upheavals.It is hosting the Conference of the Parties(Climate Summit 2011) in Durban,barely a year after hosting  a successful World Cup last year.Earlier this year,SA was invited to join the emerging economies club usually known as BRIC(Brazil,Russia,India and China).Well,perhaps this was an informal motive of having an African representative on board,and when it comes to Africa's voice,no one does it better than this powerful African Nation.But it goes without saying that Africa is not treated as  a continent,but as  a country.This is ridiculous.Africa is  a continent with 56 Countries and one size does not fit all;having a single mouth piece is not doing her any good. So,the Summit will be revisiting the Kyoto protocol which was passed almost 20 years ago in Kyoto,Japan.The treaty has a commitment of wealthy countries to cut their carbon emissions by 5 per cent since the 1990s to next year

I am not a great pizza consumer neither am i one of its greatest fan ,but once in a while,i do try one at Pizza Hut's especially when there is a 'buy one get one free' promotion.I am a lover of freebies especially if whatever is at stake can make me save a few euros to see me through the month. I am not worried about my pizza unconsumption,but if what the Grandfather pizza guru cum Republican Presidential Candidate Herman Cain says is something to go by,i think i will advise my man to consume more of pizza. This is what he had to say; “The more toppings a man has on his pizza, I believe the more manly he is, because the more manly man is not afraid of abundance.” “A manly man don't want it piled high with vegetables! He would call that a sissy pizza.” Now this guy has not only a passion for pizza, but also a penchant for women.Just a few days after declaring his interest of occupying the White House,Cain has been accused of  sexual harassment by five women,the sixth

Chambon -sur-Lignon,Haute -Loire, France Agnes Marin,a 13 year old College student at an Elite Protestant French College had a great vision for a bright future.Described by her college mates as warm,sociable,kind,bold,intelligent and  hard-working,Agnes wanted to become a FilmMaker.But that was never to be;her young life and ambitions were cut short on wednesday 16th Nov 2011 by a 17 year old student,Mathieu,who was in the same college.It was only two days later after an intensive search that her lifeless body was found in a thicket.It was actually Mathieu who led the anticrime squad to the scene of crime,and confessed to having murdered Agnes.It was all clear now;he had first raped her before killing her and setting her body ablaze. Loreto Convent Msongari ,Lavington,Nairobi 29th July 2011 was a fateful day in the life of this prestigious,well reputed learning institution.About 80 pupils that were travelling to what was supposed to have been a great excursion in Samburu w

Kenyans are known for their hard work and determination towards  prosperity.They believe that success is determined by an individual's ability and achievement,a clear indication why many school mottos stress on hard work  and success.It is for these reasons why many struggle towards attaining a better and richer life by seizing any viable opportunity. The country also has a high number of self made millionaires,who,surprisingly started from very humble beginnings.These millionaires,mainly businessmen the likes of Njenga Karume,Chris Kirubi,S.K Macharia amongst many  have inspiring stories that are sought after and true to this,a lot of self made entrepreneurs have been born and are doing great. Why many Kenyan struggle to achieve can therefore be attributed to their backgrounds,the humble backgrounds where you grew up seeing others living a good life in big houses,and therefore kept saying 'when i grow up,i will build a house like that one of Mr so and so'.Some people

Recently,i received inboxes from my virtual friends on Facebook inquiring about a message i had supposedly sent to them.Many were as furious,giving rude feedbacks about the unintended message,but none dared tell me what the context of the message was.The thing is,i never at any time inboxed anyone on anything whatsoever,not to the best of my knowledge.Apparently,i am the only one privy to my password,and i have a habit of opening mails on my laptop only,almost all the time.How the hackers got privy of my Facebook account and details of my friends still remains a querry,but to say the least,i am getting concerned by the rate at which this internet technology is making and breaking the world at the same time. Every internet consumer can bear me witness of having been at one a time  a victim of this hacking business;and it even gets worse when a sexual video of yourself is circulated to all your friends.This is especially dangerous since some of us have our bosses,parents,children, spou

Kenyans are really wonderful people.Besides boasting of one of the best well educated human capital in Africa,we also have probably the best innovative and smart brains.As i have mentioned earlier in my blogs,many Kenyans have been working with genius Companies such as Apple and not forgetting one of our own,Liz Mucheru who almost made it on the Apprentice Today,our funny,somehow laid back President is turning 80,and what has Kenyans done?The have composed him a birthday song or poem or whatever they may call it.This poem has been doing rounds on the web since this  afternoon,and it has a full message that Ubako should receive on such a day.If you haven't seen it,here it goes; Happy Birthday Mwai Kibaki may you live to blow 1001 candles. too bad we can't bake you a cake, the gas is finished n price doubled too bad we can't cook you stew, kerosene imepanda mbaya too bad we can't come visit, the fare just got hiked, too bad we can't call you, calling rates zi
