Wearing Belisi Is About...

Nobody can deny the fact that accessories are the finishing pieces to any well-heeled look—done the right way, you will end up presenting a polished picture to the world. The image conscious in society not only want to fit in among their peers by wearing high-end accessories, they also want a simple convenient way to give back to society. And if they can accomplish that while looking their best, then they will often be delighted.

That's exactly where Belisi Fashions comes in with its' flashy well designed ties. More recently the fashion house has also delved into scarves and handbags as well.

The Swing State In Kenyan Politics

Recent elections have proved that Ukambani, where Presidential hopeful, Musyoka hails from is the "swing state" in Kenyan politics. It’s like Florida in the American Presidential elections.

In 1992 Ukambani puts its’ weight behind Moi and Kanu as food distribution intensified in the vast semi-arid province in the run up to those first multi-party elections, since 1963. Kanu won.

In 1997 Ukambani stuck with Kanu and Moi who won those elections

In 2002 Ukambani switched to the opposition Narc who won those elections

In November 2005 Referendum Ukambani switched to the “No” camp at the height of campaigns. The No camp won.

So what happens when the swing state fields a candidate? Difficult to tell and this complicates things further for the 2007 Presidential elections.

Can Kalonzo Musyoka Become The Next President Of Kenya?

Kalonzo cannot become President on his own. He needs the support of other major political blocks.

As events unfold it will be interesting to see what happens, especially within Kanu where Musyoka is still very close to former President Moi and the chief chess player behind current heightened moves to snatch back political power for President Mwai Kibaki.

Huge Advantage

The huge advantage of going for an online master degree on the web is the fact that the cost of having to physically be at some campus is eliminated. This can amount to a fairly substantial amount and in effect what the World Wide Web has done is open the doors to education to a large chunk of the population, which would previously not have been able to afford it.

Some of the major names in online universities include the likes of Capella University. This University has been in existence since 1993. Capella is an accredited online university that offers graduate degree programs in business, information technology, education, human services, and psychology, and bachelor's degree programs in business and information technology.

Public Holidays Have Lost Their Meaning In Kenya

I sat through the Jamuhuri day presidential speech today and felt very sad how 43 years after independence the lot of the ordinary Kenyan has actually grown worse rather than gotten better. It is really a humiliating experience to have to admit that the repressive colonial government was more responsive to the needs of ordinary Kenyans

A President Who Is Not A Politician

President Kibaki, despite whatever good intentions he may have at heart, is hardly a politician. His speech this Jamuhuri day was boring, uninspiring and totally removed from the real situation of the Kenyan people on the ground today. He talked of an improved economy when most Kenyans have found it increasingly difficult to put food on the table, let alone find a decent job.

Leading Precious Metals Dealer

Have you heard of a company called, Monex Precious Metals? This is home to a large and dedicated staff of hard asset professionals committed to serving your precious metals investment needs being America's best precious metals dealer for many years.

One of the precious metals dealt with by Monex is of course gold. Buying gold has been recognized for centuries as one of the best ways to preserve one's wealth and purchasing power. Gold bullion is a very unique investment without equal.

Little wonder that throughout history man has taken gold very seriously indeed. From the time of ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans to more modern times, man has had an affinity for gold bullion.

The Sick Cancer Of Tribalism

After I broke the story about the secret that Moi and Biwott have kept from Kenyans for 16 years at great cost, including many people losing their lives (read the story of the millennium for yourself), I got a silly email from a Kenyan accusing me of tribalism. According to him, the reason why I was exposing all this was because Moi and Biwott belong to the Kalenjin tribe and I am in some way against members of that tribe.

This is the nonsense that has kept Kenya behind for so long.

Tribalism Cancer In Kenya

Why is it that a corrupt politician steals money and enjoys it on his own. But when he is exposed, he wants the whole tribe to arise and complain that somebody is out to finish the tribe the thief happens to belong to.

But what is really amazing is the fact that younger generations of Kenyans are also actively promoting this kind of thinking.
