This weather could be better

What is climate change? Climate change is a long-term shift in weather conditions identified by changes in temperature, precipitation, winds, and other indicators. Climate change can involve both changes in average conditions and changes in variability, including, for example, extreme events. The earth's climate is naturally variable on all time scales. However, its long-term state and average temperature are regulated by the balance between incoming and outgoing energy, which determines the Earth's energy balance. Any factor that causes a sustained change to the amount of incoming energy or the amount of outgoing energy can lead to climate change. Different factors operate on different time scales, and not all of those factors that have been responsible for changes in earth's climate in the distant past are relevant to contemporary climate change. Factors that cause climate change can be divided into two categories ­- those related to natural processes and those related to...

The return of the port

Youth unemployment is a major issue for Kenya, forming one of the top priorities of the Kenyan government. Education and skills development have long been seen as central to creating jobs. In Mombasa, Kenya’s second city and the largest trading hub in East Africa, the rate of youth unemployment is, at 44%, extremely high and risks denying Mombasa the benefits that its demographics should offer. The Port of Mombasa is Kenya’s busiest and largest seaport, serving the hinterland by exporting important agricultural products and supporting the foundation of the Kenyan economy. In addition to serving Kenya, the port serves countries in inland Africa like Uganda, Tanzania, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Southern Sudan, Rwanda, Sudan, Ethiopia, and Somalia. Inland transportation is provided by truck and train, and special railtainer services operate from the port to inland container depots. The Port of Mombasa has a wide variety of shipping services that travel to important destinations...

Cheating is a choice not a mistake

 When you start dating most will have a mask on, you don’t get to see the real person because they hide themselves.  If you’ve read the “Honeymoon Effect” by Dr Bruce Lipton you’ll know what I mean  However you’ll start seeing “Red Flags” you know when you sit their questioning things  when you start questioning it’s because your nervous system is picking up vibes that don’t feel right… your body picks up on the vibrations. Things don’t add up, ACTIONS speak LOUDER than WORDS… and then you have to look at the fact we often make a person out to be someone they're not… I mean we can make up in our own heads they are our dream partner  We often dismiss the red flags  because it’s something we really want in our lives, this causes more pain later on.  We all deal with every situation in the best way we know how and the best way we can. So we must not be too harsh on ourselves. The best way to deal with a toxic person or situation is to turn around and walk...

When football fans run mad

 More than 120 football fans have reportedly died after chaos and violence erupted following an Indonesian league football match. Supporters of the Javanese clubs Arema and Persebaya Surabaya clashed after Arema were defeated 3-2 at the match in Malang Regency, East Java. The head of the Malang Regency health office, Wiyanto Wijoyo, said more than 120 people had died. Officials were still collating the numbers of injured victims, he added. The Associated Press has reported that 127 people were killed, including two police officers. “More than 120 people died, they died of chaos, overcrowding, trampling and suffocation,” Wiyanto confirmed, adding that the total injured were definitely more than a hundred and were referred to different local hospitals. Fighting reportedly started when thousands of Arema fans rushed into the field after their team lost. Persebaya players immediately left the field, but several Arema players who were still on the field were also attacked.
