Of Mountains and Men. 8220;I lift my eyes to the hills, where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth”(Psalm 121:1-2). Saturday, December 1, 2007. In an earlier post I talked about the Aripo Savannahs being designated an Environmentally Sensitive Area and about what that meant for the communities that live in or around this protected area.

Of Mountains and Men. 8220;I lift my eyes to the hills, where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth”(Psalm 121:1-2). Wednesday, September 30, 2009. Civil Society Forum - Sept. 24th , 2009. Are we really that far off? And so, I felt compelled to attend the Civil Society Forum held at the Communication Workers Union Hall this Republic Day to find out what 'WE' as owners of this nation need to do to stop the madness before we can hardly recognise ourselves anymore.

African Shirts: June 2007

http://africanshirts.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html

Wednesday, June 20, 2007. Today marks the 100th day since the BBC Gaza correspondent, Alan Johnston, was abducted. I was at work on Monday, March 12 when the news. A long time by Palestinian standards. And this wasn't 1980s Beirut where Terry Waite was held for four years. We were sure he'd be out soon. It seemed ironic that he was three weeks from finishing his posting to Gaza, but it was a FOOC. Then on Sunday, April 15, a random group, previously unheard of, said they'd killed him. This is perhaps one...

African Shirts: December 2007

http://africanshirts.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html

Sunday, December 23, 2007. It's 1927hrs in Doha, and I'm sitting in transit. My flight to Gatwick doesn't leave till 0210hrs, and right now that feels like the other side of the moon. Ordinarily, I'd have gone on a whistlestop tour of Doha ( à la Istanbul. While in Kathmandu, so I'll continue it. The start of the book set in the Himalayas chimed perfectly with my stay in Nepal - neither Doha nor London quite cut it. Friday, December 14, 2007. Nigeria, are you listening?

African Shirts: Sometimes I think I'd be sad if you died

http://africanshirts.blogspot.com/2013/05/sometimes-i-think-id-be-sad-if-you-died.html

Wednesday, May 15, 2013. Sometimes I think I'd be sad if you died. My body clock has a few misaligned cogs and wheels as a result of the nights, so I've been up since 2.30am trying to decide whether to do this. I've mostly looked at the clock projection on our ceiling, listened to you hum right beside me, and try to figure out what to say. Are anything to go by. All I wish to do is to remind you that it's a milestone, not a millstone. You can. An achievement. It won't win you an Oscar or a Booker, or...

African Shirts: Pisani on AIDS in Africa

http://africanshirts.blogspot.com/2008/05/pisani-on-aids-in-africa.html

Wednesday, May 28, 2008. Pisani on AIDS in Africa. Elizabeth Pisani has been doing the junket since her book, the Wisdom of Whores, was released. Reviews. And interviews galore. The book, I suppose, is trying to batter conventional wisdom on what we think we know about AIDS transmission and treatment. I haven't read the book, so I hope this isn't too much of a simplification. The reviews should give more of an idea. Is africa actually the worst in HIV/AIDS in the world? 03 September, 2008 07:28.
