Ribbon Eel

Blue Ribbon Eel

The world has amazing creatures that we barely know of their existence. We have different of them lying in deep seas, oceans and on land, amazingly, they are unique and mostly beyond our imagination.

The Ribbon Eel is one of the unique ocean creatures that have trumpet like nostrils and a lower jaw with three tentacles. Well, this sea animal has an ability to change sex nature, the male ones regularly become females. The change of color and adopting a nearly yellow hue apparently helps them in suiting in their feminine side.

How to Approach Your Goal

Ever had a target in life? Definitely, everyone has had a burning desire to own something or just to acquire a certain item or goods for some reasons. Anyway, that is the best beginning of a long and winding journey before you have whatever that has been your goal.

Approach To Your Goal
However, everything does not just come the way you want it to be, you have to give it time, energy and hope that one day, you would manage to have it. If you have such drive, the only thing needed is to have a reminder, something to keep your mind at par with your target. Nevertheless, do not give up!

Having your mind at rest, draw a simple plan. This could give you the pros and cons of how you should approach the target.While, keeping in mind that nothing is simple as it appears, give it an attempt and see if your plan might work.

If things go as planned, modify your arrangements or include other approaches relevant to your goal. Relevance matters a lot as it forms a good foundation that can easily transform into your aspiration. The hard the going, the higher the chances of reaching there!

Sometimes you may not realize how far you have pushed for your destination goal, the greatest advantage of letting the drift take the course of your trial is that it takes control of your mind and draws the target much near.

It is also recommended to keep close to people with the same goal, exchange of ideas and learning from each others mistakes could lead into achieving your primary objective much easier that having to go a long way -trial and error.

For anything to be successful, patience and determination should be the leading aspects. With these two, nothing is impossible! Just let your base be your motivation and keep in mind -hope- that success is just at the corner.


Tana Delta Fresh Attacks Claims Over 30 Lives

Tana Rive Clashes Photo From Kenya RedCross

Revenge attacks in Tana Delta has claimed 32 lives as reported by Kenya RedCross: 16 men, 5 females, 8 Children, 9 police,167 houses burnt in fresh attacks on monday Sep, 10 2012. Police and RedCross personnel on ground have also confirmed that  there is over 1000 internally displaced families. 

Who is proudly Kenyan now? Yah, I guess so. With international and local media reports of terrible happenings -massacre in Tana river delta, this is understandable as to why we are quiet now. I don't wanna think about it, but it is beyond my imagination that we are experiencing this in this time of age- twentieth century. Kenyans, does common sense ring a bell in mind? Why fight when diplomacy can work it out nicely! And over what that can be equivalent to shading human blood. This is so disgusting.

 Tribalism? Hell no! This is a minor issue boiling at the epicenter of these clashes, something big is out there waiting to be exposed. Think! Think! Think! We need non partisan leaders, good governance to distribute national resources equally, a national security council that is capable of detecting a brewing hazard before it happens and a unifying leader who feels the hearts of common Kenyans. I hate evil!

New Terror Tactics- Al-Shabaab


When Kenya government launched offensive encounter against Al-Shabaab in Somalia, the main reason was to flush out a terrorism group breeding on our neighborhood. Through this, the government had another plan to stabilize Somalia –a break through to a stable government on the horn of Africa.
Since the merge between Al-Shabbab and Al-Qaida network, there has been an influx of foreign fighters joining the terror group. This has also introduced a new tactic for Al-Shabaab sympathizers in the country; it seems they have switched from hurling grenades (explosives) in crowded areas to the use of explosives and gunshots to accomplish their cowardly acts.
What we should learn from recent attacks in Garissa is that, the terror group is now emerging with a new strategy to create enmity between Muslims and Christians. In attacking churches, they know such action will anger Christians and would cause peace instability between the two religions.
This kind of terrorism has been in the rise in Nigeria as Poko-haram terror group’s main attacking tactic. By now, it seems Al-Shabaab leaders are highly relying on foreigners to lead the way forward for a weakened group. This comes after media houses reported of Poko-haram bomb makers making their way to Somalia to join their fellow terrorists.
With terrorism on the rise in this country- Kenya, even the Mosques are not safe. We have to remember the motive of this group, they do not care about anybody as long as one is in Kenya, that becomes a target and their main goal is to cause maximum damage in this country.
They have already tested how sensitive religion issue is in Northern Eastern part of Kenya. We never know what they are planning next to cause total confusion or even clashes –religious war- in the region.
The only thing we know is they have assaulted one side. Weighing on the outcome, they scored. If my guess is right, they might do the same in a Mosque for it to be seen as retaliation attack by Christians, this would be a big blow to fragile peace between the two religions in the region.
It is good that the government has increased security in most regions in the country. As citizens of this country, we have a duty to work closely with law enforcement arm of the government for our own good.

Kenya's Politics In Question


Relating past political scenes to our current political games will lead us to discover some connections, which our politicians are using to gain fame and power, in so doing, to keep a guardian angel in their dirty tracks. 
If you remember, by the time ODM Kenya was a strong political party in 2007, Hon. Kalonzo Musyoka started some rankles within the party. This led to departure of the other members of the party to rejoin the original ODM party.

  Back to the current situation, we find Hon. Musalia Mudavadi very active in the role that Hon. K. Musyoka played in 2007. The difference is he went ahead and formed a political party to run against his former colleague Hon. Raila Odinga.
Now that we know, who caused political rankles in ODM-Kenya in 2007 by using a ‘political project’ –Hon. Kalonzo Musyoka-; it does make us think our man of the match is once more having a running project. For now, it is just rumors that Hon. Musalia Mudavadi is the one. This maybe true based on newly evolved Musalia we used to know.
There are some facts which most of us have seen, although the main players have denied being ‘political Projects’. This leads us back to Hon. Kalonzo, and how he denied claims of being a PNU project! Nevertheless, everything came to be true when he became the Vice President of this nation –Kenya in President Kibaki’s administration.
In Kenya, we lack genuine politics. Most people we love and support may be someone’s political project. We have external forces that control our politicians, and exchange of money plays a major role in this country’s politics. This is the reason why it is hard to eradicate corruption, as its roots feeds in high-ranking public and private offices.
In every electioneering year, Kenya has always had a ‘hotcake’ politician since the beginning of multiparty system. In 2002, the late Hon. Kijana Wamalwa was a man to tame, then Hon. Kalonzo in 2007, and now we have Hon. Eugine Wamalwa whom every Presidential aspirant wants to snatch, will he choose wisely?
