If you've ever tried losing weight, at some point you've stumbled upon this concept – "clean eating".
The idea has been around for a long time, and it's a relatively simple one – by getting rid of all the crap in your diet (donuts, white bread, soda…you get it), you'll automatically start dropping weight.
And in theory, it makes sense. Most of the "junk" food that we eat is not only devoid of any nutrition, but it's also calorically dense, isn't satiating, and for many people, is borderline addictive.
But is it really that simple?
What Is "Clean" Eating?
All of this clean eating talk really begs the question – what exactly constitutes "clean".
While there's quite a bit of food that's still up for debate (the jury's still out on red meat), when MOST people talk about clean food, they're including the following – lean meats, fish, vegetables, fruits, nut, seeds, healthy fats such as olive oil, and whole grains.
And there's no question about it – all of these are FANTASTIC for fat loss. Most of them aren't calorically dense and are excellent for keeping you full (they're also great for keeping your energy up and fuelling your workouts).
But here's the thing – just because you're eating this way, doesn't guarantee that you'll lose fat.
Why Calories Make Or Break Fat Loss
When it comes right down to it, the amount of fat on your body is a byproduct of energy balance. If you're consistently taking in less calories than you're using, your body will start dipping into its stored fat cells for energy, and you'll start losing weight.
If you're taking in MORE calories than you're using, the OPPOSITE will happen, and you'll start to store the excess as body fat.
And while there are a number of factors that influence how many calories are expended (metabolism, hormones, etc), they fundamentally interact with calories in order to produce weight loss or weight gain.
At the end of the day, this is why you can't just rely on "clean eating". Because while eating nutritious, filling foods will certainly give you a better chance of keeping your calories under control, it isn't enough to cause weight loss in and of itself.
Putting Your Diet Together
Make no mistake – we're not saying you shouldn't eat healthy. When setting up your fat loss diet, clean foods (lean meats, veggies, all that good stuff) should really be forming the basis of what goes into your mouth.
BUT…you need to be tracking as well.
The other thing you should consider is a supplement like Vutrali Garcia. Not only has it been shown to reduce your appetite and keep cravings under control, but it also has a beneficial effect on your metabolism as well.
An increased metabolism is tremendously beneficial for weight loss, causing the body to burn more calories at rest (i.e. when you're not exercising) than you otherwise would, giving you that extra edge when the diet gets tough and the scale won't budge.

Happy Easter Sunday!
We did not have anything special planned for today but we ended up having a pretty good day.
We started by driving around Stratford and the Olympic park in the rain and then we discovered this really pretty little studio. The location is called the Sugarhouse Studios and although a bit tricky to find (especially when you are driving...) seeing it in real only brings a smile to your face.
After clicking away for a good few minutes, we then drove away towards Islington to this beautiful little café called SUNDAY. It is usually a very buzzing and busy place during the weekends but being Easter Sunday, I guess not many people thought it'd still be open. Luckily for us it was open and we had a really lovely late afternoon lunch.
For such a little café, I was impressed with the rather extensive menu. Mainly brunch dishes but all seemingly as delicious as the other. We chose the following dishes and they were both delicious.

Last night the LHÍ graduation extravaganza kicked off with the yearly graduation student fashion show. I wanted to make sure that I could actually see something this time, so we came there at 15 to eight…and yes we were able to see the glory of it all. I was a bit impatient waiting for it to start because I was so excited! The show itself didn't start until 15 past eight, but it was well worth the wait.
Each designer had between 7-10 outfits and in total it was 69 walks down the runway.
One of my favorite collections was by Jenný Halla Lárusdóttir, massive chunky knitweat in beautiful colors! It reminded me a little bit of Sonia Rykiel, stripy black & white mixed with colors. Even the stripy stockings were knitted! lovely!
I was also huge fan of Hjördís Gestsdóttir's collection, delicate and feminine flowing pieces. I found her designs to be very wearable, I think they would look good on everyone…flattering for women with a normal figure.
Signý Þórhallsdóttir's collection was casual and sporty and I loved the use of surprising materials, the white wooden ball top looked amazing…and so did the bags! Really cool!
Gígja Ísis designs were a kind of underwear and shoe collection, it made the models look like strong independent women…I can easily imagine some superstar wearing her pieces for a photoshoot or during a concert.
Guðmundur Jörundsson designed a collection for men, it consisted mostly of black leather pieces, bamboo and fur. Interesting.
Everyone's designs were brilliant! Here are some more pictures to inspire you on this Good Friday:
Above Sigga Mæja, below Halldóra Lísa Bjargardóttir

Don't forget to go to the graduation show opening by the product design, graphic design, architecture and art students on Saturday 23.4. at 14.00 in Reykjavik Art Museum Hafnarhús!

John 8:12-10:21 New International Version (NIV)
Dispute Over Jesus' Testimony
12 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."
13 The Pharisees challenged him, "Here you are, appearing as your own witness; your testimony is not valid."
14 Jesus answered, "Even if I testify on my own behalf, my testimony is valid, for I know where I came from and where I am going. But you have no idea where I come from or where I am going. 15 You judge by human standards; I pass judgment on no one. 16 But if I do judge, my decisions are true, because I am not alone. I stand with the Father, who sent me. 17 In your own Law it is written that the testimony of two witnesses is true. 18 I am one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me."
19 Then they asked him, "Where is your father?"
"You do not know me or my Father," Jesus replied. "If you knew me, you would know my Father also." 20 He spoke these words while teaching in the temple courts near the place where the offerings were put. Yet no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come.
Dispute Over Who Jesus Is
21 Once more Jesus said to them, "I am going away, and you will look for me, and you will die in your sin. Where I go, you cannot come."
22 This made the Jews ask, "Will he kill himself? Is that why he says, 'Where I go, you cannot come'?"
23 But he continued, "You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. 24 I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am he, you will indeed die in your sins."
25 "Who are you?" they asked.
"Just what I have been telling you from the beginning," Jesus replied. 26 "I have much to say in judgment of you. But he who sent me is trustworthy, and what I have heard from him I tell the world."
27 They did not understand that he was telling them about his Father. 28 So Jesus said, "When you have lifted up[a] the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he and that I do nothing on my own but speak just what the Father has taught me. 29 The one who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what pleases him." 30 Even as he spoke, many believed in him.
Dispute Over Whose Children Jesus' Opponents Are
31 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, "If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. 32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
33 They answered him, "We are Abraham's descendants and have never been slaves of anyone. How can you say that we shall be set free?"
34 Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin. 35 Now a slave has no permanent place in the family, but a son belongs to it forever. 36 So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. 37 I know that you are Abraham's descendants. Yet you are looking for a way to kill me, because you have no room for my word. 38 I am telling you what I have seen in the Father's presence, and you are doing what you have heard from your father.[b]"
39 "Abraham is our father," they answered.
"If you were Abraham's children," said Jesus, "then you would[c] do what Abraham did. 40 As it is, you are looking for a way to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham did not do such things. 41 You are doing the works of your own father."
"We are not illegitimate children," they protested. "The only Father we have is God himself."
42 Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on my own; God sent me. 43 Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say. 44 You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. 45 Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me! 46 Can any of you prove me guilty of sin? If I am telling the truth, why don't you believe me? 47 Whoever belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God."
Jesus' Claims About Himself
48 The Jews answered him, "Aren't we right in saying that you are a Samaritan and demon-possessed?"
49 "I am not possessed by a demon," said Jesus, "but I honor my Father and you dishonor me. 50 I am not seeking glory for myself; but there is one who seeks it, and he is the judge. 51 Very truly I tell you, whoever obeys my word will never see death."
52 At this they exclaimed, "Now we know that you are demon-possessed! Abraham died and so did the prophets, yet you say that whoever obeys your word will never taste death. 53 Are you greater than our father Abraham? He died, and so did the prophets. Who do you think you are?"
54 Jesus replied, "If I glorify myself, my glory means nothing. My Father, whom you claim as your God, is the one who glorifies me. 55 Though you do not know him, I know him. If I said I did not, I would be a liar like you, but I do know him and obey his word. 56 Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it and was glad."
57 "You are not yet fifty years old," they said to him, "and you have seen Abraham!"
58 "Very truly I tell you," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!" 59 At this, they picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds.
Jesus Heals a Man Born Blind
9 As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. 2 His disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"
3 "Neither this man nor his parents sinned," said Jesus, "but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him. 4 As long as it is day, we must do the works of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work. 5 While I am in the world, I am the light of the world."
6 After saying this, he spit on the ground, made some mud with the saliva, and put it on the man's eyes. 7 "Go," he told him, "wash in the Pool of Siloam" (this word means "Sent"). So the man went and washed, and came home seeing.
8 His neighbors and those who had formerly seen him begging asked, "Isn't this the same man who used to sit and beg?" 9 Some claimed that he was.
Others said, "No, he only looks like him."
But he himself insisted, "I am the man."
10 "How then were your eyes opened?" they asked.
11 He replied, "The man they call Jesus made some mud and put it on my eyes. He told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed, and then I could see."
12 "Where is this man?" they asked him.
"I don't know," he said.
The Pharisees Investigate the Healing
13 They brought to the Pharisees the man who had been blind. 14 Now the day on which Jesus had made the mud and opened the man's eyes was a Sabbath. 15 Therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. "He put mud on my eyes," the man replied, "and I washed, and now I see."
16 Some of the Pharisees said, "This man is not from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath."
But others asked, "How can a sinner perform such signs?" So they were divided.
17 Then they turned again to the blind man, "What have you to say about him? It was your eyes he opened."
The man replied, "He is a prophet."
18 They still did not believe that he had been blind and had received his sight until they sent for the man's parents. 19 "Is this your son?" they asked. "Is this the one you say was born blind? How is it that now he can see?"
20 "We know he is our son," the parents answered, "and we know he was born blind. 21 But how he can see now, or who opened his eyes, we don't know. Ask him. He is of age; he will speak for himself." 22 His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jewish leaders, who already had decided that anyone who acknowledged that Jesus was the Messiah would be put out of the synagogue. 23 That was why his parents said, "He is of age; ask him."
24 A second time they summoned the man who had been blind. "Give glory to God by telling the truth," they said. "We know this man is a sinner."
25 He replied, "Whether he is a sinner or not, I don't know. One thing I do know. I was blind but now I see!"
26 Then they asked him, "What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?"
27 He answered, "I have told you already and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you want to become his disciples too?"
28 Then they hurled insults at him and said, "You are this fellow's disciple! We are disciples of Moses! 29 We know that God spoke to Moses, but as for this fellow, we don't even know where he comes from."
30 The man answered, "Now that is remarkable! You don't know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes. 31 We know that God does not listen to sinners. He listens to the godly person who does his will. 32 Nobody has ever heard of opening the eyes of a man born blind. 33 If this man were not from God, he could do nothing."
34 To this they replied, "You were steeped in sin at birth; how dare you lecture us!" And they threw him out.
Spiritual Blindness
35 Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and when he found him, he said, "Do you believe in the Son of Man?"
36 "Who is he, sir?" the man asked. "Tell me so that I may believe in him."
37 Jesus said, "You have now seen him; in fact, he is the one speaking with you."
38 Then the man said, "Lord, I believe," and he worshiped him.
39 Jesus said,[d] "For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who see will become blind."
40 Some Pharisees who were with him heard him say this and asked, "What? Are we blind too?"
41 Jesus said, "If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin; but now that you claim you can see, your guilt remains.
The Good Shepherd and His Sheep
10 "Very truly I tell you Pharisees, anyone who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, is a thief and a robber. 2 The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. 5 But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger's voice." 6 Jesus used this figure of speech, but the Pharisees did not understand what he was telling them.
7 Therefore Jesus said again, "Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. 8 All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. 9 I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved.[e] They will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
11 "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it. 13 The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep.
14 "I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me— 15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16 I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd. 17 The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life—only to take it up again. 18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father."
19 The Jews who heard these words were again divided. 20 Many of them said, "He is demon-possessed and raving mad. Why listen to him?"
21 But others said, "These are not the sayings of a man possessed by a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?"

I'm originally from West Africa, Nigeria. I moved to the bay area 3 years ago and currently live in Oakland. I'm a full time student in Chabot Community College, majoring in Computer Science. I work part-time with Phat Beets Youth Pickle Co.
De Gud Fix is going to be an avenue for locals to get their phones fixed/repaired for really affordable prices. Youth will also be able to learn how to fix phones and computers, which will keep them off the street and prevent their incarceration.
What really inspired me to create my enterprise was coming from a low income family. I could care for myself with the little profitable income I made from fixing people's phones and computers. I would love to share these skills with other youth to create self employment opportunities for them and keep them engaged with something positive and productive.
If my enterprise is successful, there will be lots of entrepreneurial job opportunities for youth in my community, and the rate of incarceration among youth in my community would decrease because they would rather be doing something productive than being on the street taking part in activities that would lead to their incarceration.
People can support my enterprise by getting their phones fixed through me, as well as by providing funds to start training other youth.

Modern Family Rings True in Heart Echoes
- Susan Ellingburg Crosswalk.com Contributing Writer
- 2012 19 Mar
Author: Sally John
Title: Heart Echoes
Publisher: Tyndale House
I hear this often: "I don't read Christian fiction. Those books are shallow and stupid and unrealistic. Real people aren't like that." Sadly, that's often true. But now I have a two-word answer for that kind of complaint: Sally John.
Heart Echoes, John's latest offering, is anything but shallow or stupid. It's a thoughtful, multi-layered look at the inner workings of a modern family and the secrets that threaten to tear them apart.
Stuck on the interstate during a massive Los Angeles earthquake, lawyer Teal Morgan-Adams feels her world begin to crumble along with the overpass overhead. It was a good world, too—one Teal shares with her husband, River, and her sixteen-year-old daughter, Maiya. They're a blended family bound together by love and mutual respect. Until . . .
River winds up in the hospital with injuries sustained in the quake . . .
Maiya turns up missing . . .
One of River's former at-risk students is involved . . .
And that's just the beginning.
Once the immediate issues get sorted out (River will recover; Maiya's grounded for life, but otherwise OK), the family's fault lines are exposed. Maiya seemingly transforms from sweet girl to rebellious teenager overnight. Teal blames River for exposing Maiya to a bad influence, but mostly she's afraid Maiya will follow in her footsteps and end up a young, unwed mother. (River just tries to deal with all the emotions flying around the house.)
Then Maiya decides it's time to find her biological father. Problem is, Teal never told her who he is. Teal never told anyone who he is. Not even him. The secret that shaped her life now threatens to tear it apart.
Like many women, Teal tries (and often fails) to balance marriage, motherhood, and a demanding career. Her past is full of bad memories. Her relationship with her sister Lacey is complicated. Her home town is the last place on earth she wants to be. It takes a natural disaster and more than one family crisis to get Teal back to Oregon, but eventually she and Maiya end up on Lacey's doorstep for the summer. Luckily, that's exactly where God wants them.
The thing that makes John's writing so good is that every character rings true. They're all complex, flawed individuals just trying to live their lives as best they can. After the heart-pounding beginning there's not as much outer drama, but the internal tension ratchets up with every chapter. Unlike so many Christian novels that preach at the reader, John shows God at work in her characters' lives without feeling the need for play-by-play commentary. Teal and River are neither super Christians nor lost souls; their relationships with God are authentic and believable.
The publisher's press release touts Heart Echoes as "a guide to helping marriages" but you don't have to be married (or a parent) to appreciate this story. Teal, River, Maiya, Lacey, and the rest are engaging enough that you'll be rooting for them from the very first page.

Democrat State Senator Joe Keaveny introduced Senate Bill 786 Monday, which would require state auditors to compare the cost of the death penalty with other sentences.
By Charles Minshew
He says the bill is about the cost of executions and not necessarily about the abolition of the death penalty.
"The purpose of the bill is to examine the situation where we seek the death penalty and to inform people of what this really costs us as taxpayers and as a state compared to other first degree murder cases," Keaveny said.
Keaveny says he feels it is time to explore costs associated with executions instead of cutting funds from higher education and vital state programs. The bill sets a deadline for 2013 for a completed report, but Keaveny says the date could be changed as the bill moves forward.

The crime of shoplifting is defined as removing merchandise from an establishment where it is displayed for sale while knowingly depriving another of such goods without paying the cost. While professional shoplifters account for most of the merchandise stolen, up to half of the shoplifting cases in this country are committed by minors.
A person who has taken merchandise in most cases must be seen leaving the store without paying in order to be apprehended. At that point, a store detective or employee will detain the individual. The store management will contact the police, who will arrest the suspect and take her to police headquarters. She will be charged with theft, and the value of the stolen merchandise will determine the nature of the violation. Her photo will be taken, and she will be fingerprinted. Her fingerprints will go into AFIS, the national database, where they will remain for as long as she lives. If the suspect is a minor, she will be referred to juvenile authorities and released to a parent or guardian.
Juvenile court is the venue for cases of shoplifting by a minor. The judge can determine the penalty. Depending on the minor's past history, the value of the merchandise taken, and other factors, the judge may simply issue a warning or may impose an appropriate penalty.
Penalties for a minor convicted of shoplifting vary, according to the value of goods stolen and whether this is a first offence. Dollar limits will determine whether the offence is a misdemeanour, with relatively light penalties, or a felony, with more severe punishment. Penalties may include restitution, fines, counselling, community service or any combination of these. The convicted minor may be put on probation or sentenced to juvenile detention for up to a year. The owners of the store where the incident occurred may file a civil suit for damages. The minor will likely also be banned from the store where the shoplifting occurred.
Legal Advice
It is essential for the parents or guardians of a minor child charged with shoplifting to seek the advice of a lawyer to ensure that they know the child's rights and the pertinent laws of the state where the incident occurred. Parents of minors convicted of shoplifting can be held liable for money damages as well as court costs and the value of the stolen merchandise.

SAN FRANCISCO — Security experts have only begun examining the thousands of lines of code that make up Flame, an extensive, data-mining computer virus that has been designed to steal information from computers across the Middle East, but already digital clues point to its creators and capabilities.
Researchers at Kaspersky Lab, which first reported the virus Monday, believe Flame was written by a different group of programmers from those who had created other malware directed at computers in the Middle East, particularly those in Iran. But Flame appears to be part of the state-sponsored campaign that spied on and eventually set back Iran's nuclear program in 2010, when a digital attack destroyed roughly a fifth of Iran's nuclear centrifuges.
"We believe Flame was written by a different team of programmers but commissioned by the same larger entity," Roel Schouwenberg, a security researcher at Kaspersky Labs, said in an interview Wednesday. But he would not say which governments he was speaking of.
Flame, these researchers say, shares several notable features with two other major programs that targeted Iran in recent years. The first virus, Duqu, was a reconnaissance tool that researchers say was used to copy blueprints of Iran's nuclear program. The second, Stuxnet, was designed to attack industrial control systems and specifically calibrated to spin Iranian centrifuges out of control.
Because Stuxnet and Duqu were written on the same platform and share many of the same fingerprints in their source code, researchers believe both were developed by the same group of programmers. Those developers have never been identified, but researchers have cited intriguing bits of digital evidence that point to a joint American-Israeli effort to undermine Iran's efforts to build a nuclear bomb.Continue reading the main story
For example, researchers at Kaspersky Lab tracked the working hours of Duqu's operators and found they coincided with Jerusalem local time. They also noted that Duqu's programmers were not active between sundown on Fridays and sundown on Saturdays, a time that coincides with the Sabbath when observant Jews typically refrain from secular work.
Intelligence and military experts have said that Stuxnet was first tested at Dimona, an Israeli complex widely believed to be the headquarters of Israel's atomic weapons program.
According to researchers at Kaspersky Lab, which is based in Moscow, Flame may have preceded or been designed at the same time as Duqu and Stuxnet. Security researchers at Webroot, an antivirus maker, first encountered a sample of Flame malware in December 2007. Researchers believe Duqu may have been created in August 2007. The first variant of Stuxnet did not appear on computers until June 2009.
Like Duqu, Flame is a reconnaissance tool. It can grab images of users' computer screens, record e-mails and instant-messaging chats, turn on microphones remotely, and monitor keystrokes and network traffic. Even if an infected device is not connected to the Internet, Flame is capable of spreading to other devices by looking for Bluetooth-enabled devices nearby or Internet-connected devices in a local network, according to researchers at Kaspersky Lab.
Flame also shares a quirkier trait with Duqu: an affection for American movie characters. Flame's command for communicating with Bluetooth-enabled devices is "Beetlejuice." An e-mail that infected an unnamed company with Duqu last year was sent by a "Mr. Jason B." — which researchers believe is a reference to Jason Bourne of the Robert Ludlum spy tales.
It will take more time for computer security researchers around the world to discover more. Flame contains 20 times more code than Stuxnet and is much more widespread than Duqu. Researchers at Kaspersky Lab said they have detected Flame on hundreds of computers and predict that the total number of infections could be more than a thousand.
Unlike Duqu and Stuxnet, security researchers say, Flame is remarkable in that it has been able to evade discovery for five years — which was impressive given its size. Most malware is a couple hundred kilobytes in size. Flame is 20 megabytes. "It was hiding in plain sight," said Mr. Schouwenberg. "It was designed in such a way that it was nearly impossible to track down."
Researchers noted that Flame spreads through more conservative means. Researchers say that while Stuxnet had the ability to replicate autonomously, Flame can spread from machine to machine only when prompted by the attacker.
Iran confirmed Tuesday that computers belonging to several high-ranking officials appear to have been penetrated by Flame.
Researchers are still trying to figure out whether the virus has Stuxnet-like sabotage capabilities.
Already, some evidence suggests Flame may be capable of wiping out a computer's hard drive. Researchers at Symantec, an American security firm that has also studied the virus, said Flame references a specific file previously associated with a separate virus, called Wiper, which Iranian officials said had erased data on hard drives inside its oil ministry last month. Researchers are trying to learn whether Wiper was not a virus but one of Flame's command modules.
"This is the third such virus we've seen in the past three years," Vikram Thakur, a Symantec researcher, said in an interview Tuesday. "It's larger than all of them. The question we should be asking now is: How many more such campaigns are going on that we don't know about?"Continue reading the main story

During the entirety of Ion Theatre's production of Stephen Adly Guirgis' The Little Flower of East Orange, Trina Kaplan never stands up; she's either in a hospital bed or a wheelchair. But she stands tall as Therese Marie, the aged, dying mother of two caring but explosive grown children, Danny (Jeffrey Jones) and Justina (Catalina Maynard). By turns playful and warm, delusional and haunted, Kaplan's "Terri" is the life force of Guirgis' partly autobiographical work, directed by Ion's Glenn Paris and Claudio Raygoza (both perform as well). Little Flower, which is nearing the end of its run, is a sometimes-wrenching reminder of the bond between parent and child.
While the play is bloated with characters and subplots—Danny's drugged-out Republican girlfriend (Melinda Miller), a cool-eyed detective (Durwood Murray) trying to learn Terri's identity, a forlorn son (Paris) at his own ailing mother's hospital bedside—the central relationship between Terri and Danny is complex, conflicted and wholly believable. Terri's girlhood secret, and Danny's awareness of it, is chilling.
The Little Flower of East Orange runs through Dec. 8 at BLKBOX @ 6th & Penn in Hillcrest. $27-$33. iontheatre.com
The words "Don't be Afraid" are scrawled on the blackboard scenery in the first couple of minutes of When Last We Flew, winding up its run at Diversionary Theatre. Turns out it's a directive for the restless characters of Harrison David Rivers' play about being judged and oppressed in Middle America at its most judgmental and oppressive. This is the second time this season Diversionary has landed in Kansas—the far-superior Harmony, Kansas preceded Rivers' play, which is directed by Colette Robert.
When Last We Flew is openly admiring of Tony Kushner's Angels in America, but nowhere near as epic. Its account of a couple of confused and truth-hungry high-schoolers is, however, earnest and articulate. Cordell Mosteller is Paul, whose refuge is the bathroom and a worn copy of Angels, and Rory Lipede is Natalie, who in her Catholic-school duds gets to travel by tornado. The flying and feathers allusions are overt, as is some of the magical realism, but When Last We Flew does elevate the mind.
It runs through Dec. 9 at Diversionary Theatre in University Heights. $25-$51; diversionary.org.

Men and women with a double chin or a round baby face that is hereditary, understand that diet and exercise alone cannot improve these features. Submental liposuction can effectively reduce jowls and double chins. Houston facial plastic surgeons, Dr. Kridel and Dr. Sturm use liposuction to remove fat and excess tissue from the neck and jawline to help patients achieve improved jawline definition and a thinner, sleeker overall appearance.
What Sets Us Apart
Dr. Kridel and Dr. Sturm are award-winning, board-certified facial plastic surgeons specializing in aesthetic surgery strictly for the areas of the neck and up. Dr. Kridel has published over 30 scientific journal articles and book chapters on facial rejuvenation, including articles involving facial liposuction with Dr. Sturm. Our patients and physicians refer others, as well as their own family members to Dr. Kridel and Dr. Sturm for their recognized surgical skill and expertise in this area.
Facial Liposuction Reviews
"I had chin liposuction with Dr. Kridel, and my results are phenomenal! I look natural but there is a huge difference. But not only am I pleased with the results, I also really enjoyed being a patient of Dr. Kridel and his staff. They were always professional, kind, and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Kridel and Associates. If you are thinking of having facial plastic surgery, he is definitely one of the top plastic surgeons in Houston."- A. / Google / Dec 22, 2013
"To choose a surgeon once because of her skill and achievement at such a young age is one thing . Last year I was Dr Sturm O'Brien Patient for FFS . Her results were the proof to me to call back and ask The Very intelligent caring patient coordinator to see her again for alloderm -lip lift and extensive lipo suction . once the bandages came off I looked beyond minor bruising and said I feel Gorgeous for the first time in many years . I feel very fortunate to have met Her and Her wonderful Staff"- E.M. / Healthgrades / Jan 19, 2017
"Any surgical procedure has risks associated with it. Dr. Kridel and staff are excellent at what they specialize in. Information and concerned for you every step of the way resulted in a comfortable procedure with excellent results. A wonderful experience. A talented surgeon. I am very happy. It reduced appearance of a double chin."- K.K. / Office Visit / Dec 09, 2014
Surgical Technique
During submental liposuction, the surgeon makes a tiny incision under the chin and "vacuums" out excess fat through a suction catheter, known as a "cannula", which helps to loosen excess fat cells and suction them out. After he closes the incision, he applies a turban-like dressing, then removes stitches and bandages four days later. The procedure takes about an hour depending the size of the area and the amount of excess fat needed to be removed.
During/After Surgery
Liposuction is performed under general or "twilight" anesthesia at an accredited outpatient surgical facility or our AAAHC-accredited, in-office surgical suite. Immediately after surgery, patients can begin to see a more youthful jawline with jowls and double chins reduced. It takes about a full week for the bruising and swelling to dissipate, and can take several months for the final results to appear. Liposuction will produce scars where the cannula incision was made, but these are very small and will fade over time. After five days, you can return to work.
Expected Cost
Liposuction of the face will vary in cost depending on how many areas of the face (cheeks, neck, chin, etc.) are being addressed. For the liposuction part alone, the cost can range between $2,000-$4,000. This surgery is sometimes combined with a lift or augmentation technique. The costs will increase if another procedure is performed at the same time.

Liposuction FAQs
Will Lipo Tighten Skin?
Liposuction is a surgery that removes fat, but it does not address imperfections caused by loose skin. During your consultation with Dr. Kridel and Dr. Sturm can also review all of the options for skin tightening and skin texture if you would like.
How do I Know if I Need Lipo?
During your consultation with Dr. Kridel or Dr. Sturm, they will fully evaluate the face and neck area. We will also take photographs and complete digital computer imaging so that patients can discuss their aesthetic goals and review what can be achieved through submental liposuction or other facial rejuvenation procedures. Dr. Kridel and Dr. Sturm will only provide you with a surgical plan tailored specifically to you and your goals for the most successful facial rejuvenation outcome, which may or may not include liposuction.
What About Scarring?
Dr. Kridel and Dr. Sturm take great care to place the incisions in inconspicuous spots, such as under the chin, to keep scarring to a minimum and virtually undetectable over time.
Weight Loss First?
Liposuction creates a slimmer facial appearance and is ideal for those who are at a healthy weight, but still have stubborn areas of fat resistant to diet and exercise. Liposuction is not an alternative to a diet and exercise weight loss plan, nor is it a surgical treatment for obesity. For patients that have lost a great deal of weight and have loose skin as a result are good candidates for facelift surgery, but not facial liposuction.
Combining Procedures?
Submental liposuction is commonly combined with facelift surgery to remove the fatty area directly under the chin or with chin augmentation surgery to improve jawline definition. However, it can also be done as a single outpatient procedure.

The author of the acclaimed "Mucusless Diet Healing System", Prof Arnold Ehret once said, "If one way is true…it is the way of Nature!" It will be an understatement to say he was and is so correct.
In this day and age when everyone desires to be slim or slimmer as the case may be, only very few people know that one sure-fire, all natural, method can lead to a slimmer and more importantly healthier person.
This method is as old as the mountains and is known as Fasting.
It is by far a greater cure of our ills-both physical and mental-than all of the drugs of the medical fraternity combined and when combined with an exclusive mucus-binding (alkaline forming) diet of mainly fruits, leafy and root vegetables (raw and cooked) and even basic exercises that involve the use of one's own body weight for resistance such as Yoga, Calisthenics and Pilates, a well-conducted fast can reap untold benefits for those seeking to lose weight.
There are several types of fasts that can be beneficial for weight loss.
- The complete water fasts: This, admittedly, should be conducted with extreme caution or in a specialized sanitarium if undertaken more than 3 days.
- The Juice Fast: This is much easier for the general populace and can be undergone as long as you feel like it.
- The Fruit Fast: This, well, is really not a fast per se…but when one lives exclusively on SEASONAL ORGANIC fruits for days on end…meaning mono meals (2 at the most ) of only one kind of fruit say Apples in Fall, Melons in summer for a week plus, you will be bound to see the benefits.
- The Dry-Fast: This is another camouflaged fast where one consumes ONLY dry fruits such as dates; figs etc for 3 days or thereabouts and then breaks the fast with a laxative. Though highly praised in some quarters, it's not so common.
The second and third choices are by far my personal recommendations for those seeking to lose weight. A friend of mine tried the second choice after months of badgering and was able to eventually see the awesome cuts in his abdominal cavities. You should have heard him exclaim on the phone to me: "Foras…I got a six-pack man…and I didn't even do no sit-ups…!" Moreover, his supposed hereditary red-eyes cleared up after several eye-doctors had told him it was just a genetic trait…yeah, right!
Here are a few tips if you are fasting for weight loss:
- Though not a conclusive list of the dos and don'ts of fasting be well informed that when undertaken properly, you'd not only lose the undesired weight, but you'd be well on your way to a cleaner and better you in no time. Prepare yourself for a fast by gradually tapering off of acid-forming aka "junk foods and commence to consuming raw and cooked fruits and veggies to begin a milder cleansing process as these items are the best intestinal brooms for the colon.
- Every now and again, 3 hours after supper and say an hour or so before retiring to sleep, drink an herbal tea laxative such as "Smooth Move Herbal Tea" during this preparatory stage.
- Drink 1-2 quarts of unflavored lemonade in the mornings to balance the chemical reactions within the body and to restore it to an alkaline state.
- Be mentally prepared for the task ahead of fasting.
- Take things a little easier while fasting or on a mono-diet of fruit.
- Avoid using microwaves at all costs. I touched on this subject in the free section on controlling acne in my site.
For weight loss, Fasting, my friends is the 'fastest' way to improved health!

Beauty and the butt: … as considered in a modeling contest in Uganda, according to an Africana.com article passed around on the Afrofuturism mailing list two months ago. Yes, I don't clean out my in-box often. Why do you ask?
The modeling industry is a frequent target of criticism for promoting an unrealistic and unhealthy image of beauty among women and girls worldwide. Critics of the modeling industry argue that "real" women of all races are hardly represented by the women we see on the catwalks and on the pages of fashion magazines. Fashion stylists and designers respond that models are essentially clotheshorses, and are in no way meant to reflect reality. The clothes hang most ideally on a lanky, skinny female form, they argue, which is why it's so important that the girl/women's body parts all fit certain stringent measurements.

A Chronicle of Maternal Crimes, Minor Calamities, and Occasional Moments of Grace
By Ayelet Waldman
213 pp. Doubleday. $24.95
Writing about motherhood is a little bit like writing about sex — in both cases, the author confronts the challenge of finding something new to say about a subject so powerful that all but the most inspired language sounds either trite or overblown.
In an essay she wrote for The New York Times back in 2005, Ayelet Waldman found something new to say about both sex and motherhood, or at least something rarely heard spoken aloud: that she loved her husband even more than she did her four young children.
Some readers probably cringed at the way Waldman wrote about her own sex life ("vital, even torrid"), but they weren't the ones who tore into Waldman on "Oprah," or criticized her on the rabid parenting Web site UrbanBaby. Mostly, her attackers were indignant mothers, and they forced Waldman into what she calls, in "Bad Mother," her new book of essays about maternal guilt, the "Bad Mother perp walk," a public and painful drubbing for declarations that — among other things — her children might not appreciate.
Bold though it was, the actual message of Waldman's essay probably wasn't quite as controversial as her presentation. Waldman didn't do much to soften the stance, taking her point of view to a rhetorical extreme — she could survive the loss of a child, she felt compelled to spell out, and life would go on, so long as she had her husband. The reverse would not be true.
It wasn't the writing that riveted or repelled people in that essay, it was an immoderate honesty, which is precisely what makes "Bad Mother" occasionally absorbing reading. At its worst, that unedited quality translates, in Waldman's prose, into lazy cliché: She writes of her "briefcase traded in for a diaper bag" and makes jokes about her sagging breasts. (I'm begging here: can we please have a moratorium on that particular image in maternal memoirs?) In an essay in which she congratulates herself and her husband for sharing housework (a task made that much easier by the maid they employ), she reminds readers that "there is nothing sexier to a woman with children than a man holding a Swiffer," an insight Redbook has probably been espousing, in one form or another, for, oh, about 30 years. She even makes tired jokes stereotyping her own identity (on ordering in dinner: "I'm a Jewish girl from the New York area, after all").
And yet it's the same uncensored rawness that made me reluctant to speed through any of Waldman's essays, for fear I'd miss some of the more jolting zingers. "Let's all commit ourselves to the basic civility of minding our own business," she concludes in an essay exhorting mothers to stop scolding one another in public. "Failing that, let's just go back to a time when we were nasty and judgmental, but only behind one another's backs."Continue reading the main story
What really makes Waldman's book interesting, as voices on motherhood go, is Waldman herself — the intensity of her positions and the way she thinks. In an essay on teaching her kids to feel good about sex, she writes about her decision to put a colorful bag of condoms on one of the top shelves in the kids' bathroom, just so they get used to the idea for when the time comes (her youngest is now 5). Objecting to her kids' playing dodgeball, she calls the gym teacher to quote, chapter and verse, the official opposing position of the National Association for Sports and Physical Education. (You might think this was in an essay on the perils of overparenting; it's actually one in which she realizes that she can't foist her own childhood anxieties onto her own socially adroit children.)
When she screws up she screws up royally, and fesses up. After a mother on one of her kids' preschool e-mail lists sends her a sanctimonious note, Waldman forwards the exchange, along with some expletive-filled commentary, to a friend. "Except I didn't hit the "forward button," she writes. "I hit 'reply to all.' " Waldman, hotheaded and opinionated, digs herself into ditches, and with "Bad Mother," sends candid shots from the pit.
Some of the essays in the collection, like one in which she worries she's failing her daughters because she lets her husband change the light bulbs, feel not just slight but neurotic, given their inclusion in a collection called "Bad Mother." And like many women who write about the difficulty of balancing work and family, Waldman does so from the privileged position of someone who has few money worries and flexible hours, which means she never has to face some of the agonizing challenges so many women do.
But that doesn't mean Waldman never puts herself on the line. In an essay called "Rocketship," Waldman takes brave risks that make the title of the book seem less like a feminist wink and more like a tortured cry of self-doubt. She describes the choice she made, over her husband's initial objection, to terminate a pregnancy when a genetic counselor informed them there was a small — but bigger than usual — chance that their son would be seriously developmentally and physically challenged. Waldman is never more moving than when she describes reading aloud, on Yom Kippur, before her entire congregation, a letter of atonement to the little boy or girl who would have been her third child. "I atoned before my husband, and my baby," Waldman writes. "I begged Rocketship's forgiveness for being so inadequate a mother that I could not accept an imperfect child." She wants no consolation from the abortion-rights crowd ("Rocketship was my baby. And I killed him"), and she's clearly unafraid of what the anti-abortion propaganda machine will do with what she has written.
Waldman doesn't always tie her essays up in a neat bow, which seems appropriately messy given the subject matter. They say that a good mother is one who doesn't need her kids to like her all the time. Of writers and their readers, Waldman's book leaves me thinking, the same might be true.

In this year of Knowing God and Knowing Others, we have focused on knowing God Our Father. Now, we are focusing on knowing Jesus Our Lord. Our God is one God in three persons—Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It is so important that we understand the person and work of each member of the Godhead—and in understanding, that we embrace and engage in knowing each member particularly and powerfully.
Jesus, the man, our Lord, Savior and King must be known, loved and imitated in every way if we are to influence and impact the world the way He did. The divine Christ that is high and lifted up, seated at the right hand of the Father, is the One we bow to and yield to as our example and our life-giver to represent Him well in a worthy manner in our world. The Apostle Paul tells us that we must know Him in His humanity, divinity and royalty. He says that we are called to fellowship with and be joined to Him in His life, death, resurrection, ascension and glorification (Phil. 3:7-11; 2:5-11).
This week, we are talking about our Lord In His Humanity. Jesus was fully God and fully man. As such, He gives us a pattern to follow and a path to walk. He calls and compels us to observe His way of life and obey His walk in life. Knowing Jesus in His humanity is an exercise in and expression of imitation, instruction and impartation. In His life, Jesus left us a path and pattern that is to be followed fully and faithfully.
Our Lord Lived A Life Of Submission Jesus our Lord submitted to the will of God our Father in everything at all times. He came to earth, according to the will of the Father, to become the sinless sacrifice for the sins of fallen mankind. He did whatever the Father was doing—He said whatever the Father was saying—He submitted Himself to divine authority as the divinely anointed One. In order to know the submitted Lord, we must submit to His lordship in every detail of life. He, and He alone understands the purpose of submission to divine authority and the power it produces. Pray that we would clearly discern what it looks like to live a life of total submission to the absolute authority of Jesus our Lord.
Our Lord Lived A Life Of Selflessness The essence of divine love is selflessness—a complete commitment to sacrifice anything and everything for the sake of another. This is what Jesus has done for us, is doing for us and will continue to do for us forever. This is what we must do, by His love and grace, for everyone who is in our lives. A life poured out in selflessness is a life put forth in sacrificial service to others—this is our call—this is our cause—this is our commission. Selfishness only produces harm—selflessness produces help, healing and health for everyone it touches. Pray that every area of selfishness would be exposed that every area of selflessness could be expressed.
Our Lord Lived A Life Of Suffering Jesus came to earth to engage, embrace and enter into the suffering of those He created. He suffered every indignity, infirmity and injustice to fully identify with the human condition. He suffered, not merely as a martyr, but as the Messiah who would show that suffering for the sake of righteousness was the path to purpose, purity and power. The sufferings of the Lord present to us a model for living and a method for liberation—the realization that suffering for what is right will produce a glorious freedom that nothing else can produce. Simply put—suffering is not suffocation—it is sanctification of the highest order. Pray that we would have a fresh revelation of what it means to fellowship with Jesus our Lord in His sufferings, and the grace and growth that it brings.
Remember: The life that our Lord lived while on earth is a path and a pattern to be followed fully and faithfully. To know Him is to imitate His way of life and His walk in life, always in full submission to His divine authority and dependence on His divine anointing.

The whole process of traveling can be divided into many phases, the most important of which are listed below:
1. Initial Planning: This involves arranging for all the physical travel, arranging for accommodation and plenty of other logistics. Probably the most important component since your entire trip depends on it. This requires browsing through tons of sites out there to look for the best deals, and actively inquiring with other people where they stayed, whether they would suggest something different.
2. Knowing the place: What are all the places to see over there, what interesting events happened over there in history, digging the place on wikitravel and reading other travel logs. This is a much more solitary activity as compared to the first one, you go through the time line and visit that place while sitting in front of your computer screen. You do ask people which places to go, and value their feedback but it is something that is very subjective. Someone who is interested in historical monuments will not tell you about myriad of other adventurous things to do, and someone who is a night animal will completely forget about various day activities.
3. Navigation: Once you are at that place, you can save yourself a lot of time if there is someone with you with a good sense of direction. This problem, I think, has now been mitigated by the arrival of Smartphones and GPS based apps but if you do not have them, it can become pretty difficult to navigate in a new area. Saurabh once told me how there are cultural differences in terms of asking someone for directions, while in India, almost all the navigation relies on human GPS, people in US are much more reluctant on asking and being asked.
I am ridiculous in points 1 and 3. The reason for 1 being there is always someone better to do that part for me i.e Rahul in Europe, Priyank/Saloni in Bangalore, Malik in Singapore. So I have never really tried it. And I just cannot remember directions! I am, somehow, always able to lose my way. I need to get an Iphone/Galaxy II soon.
I consider myself good in 2. Not great, but I can be your interactive, informative guide who loves to explain stuff and hear 'ooohh' from you. 🙂

"I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is throwing you into confusion will pay the penalty, whoever he may be." NIV translation
Paul reassures the Galatian believers that he has confidence that they will stand on the gospel of grace which he preached. He also explains that the one that is trying to put them back under the law will answer for his actions. This reminds us of the responsibility of leaders in the body of Christ and the fact that they must be grounded in the gospel and not traditions.
"Brothers, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been abolished." NIV translation
As Saul (before Paul came to Christ) he preached circumcision (the law) and even hunted down Christians. The religious leaders liked him then but now that he was preaching about the grace of God they did not like him. When he talks about the "offense of the cross" he is talking about the fact that, to people that are trying to teach the law for salvation, the idea that Christ paid for our sins on the cross is offensive to them. It is the same even today when you speak about the radical grace of God. Many will still be offended by the fact that obedience to the law cannot bring salvation and the grace of God brings freedom from the law.
"As for those agitators, I wish they would go the whole way and emasculate themselves!" NIV translation
Paul says that he wishes that the Judaizers would go the whole way and trust completely in the law instead of compromising the gospel of grace.
That is what Jesus was saying to the church in Laodicea when He said that He wished they were either hot or cold (see Revelation 3:15 & 16).
"You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather serve one another in love." NIV translation
Because of God's grace, we are free from sin and its penalties and that is the freedom that we have. Once we are free, we can choose to serve others in love or we can choose to focus on ourselves and what we desire. Paul urges the Galatian believers to focus on serving others out of the love that has been shown to us through Jesus Christ.

Mesothelioma Research
Scientists conducting research on mesothelioma are studying new drugs, new combinations of chemotherapy, and combinations of chemotherapy and radiation therapy before and after surgery. Other research is being conducted to assess the effectiveness of biological therapy in treating mesothelioma. People who join research studies may benefit from treatments that have shown promise in earlier research.
Mesothelioma Research: An IntroductionDoctors and scientists all over the country are conducting mesothelioma research. These studies are designed to answer important questions and to determine whether new approaches are safe and effective. Research on mesothelioma already has led to many advances, and researchers continue to search for more effective methods for dealing with the condition. But controlling mesothelioma remains a challenge. Research scientists continue to search for more effective ways to treat this disease.
Current Areas of ResearchIn trials with people who have mesothelioma, doctors are studying new drugs, new combinations of chemotherapy, and combinations of chemotherapy and radiation therapy before and after surgery.
Biological therapy is also under investigation. Sometimes referred to as "biologic therapy," this is a treatment that uses the person's immune system to fight cancer. Substances made by the body or made in a laboratory are used to boost, direct, or restore the body's natural defenses against cancer. This type of cancer treatment is also called biotherapy or immunotherapy.
Potential Benefits of Participating in Mesothelioma ResearchIn order for research on mesothelioma to be conducted, volunteers are needed. People who join research studies have the first chance to potentially benefit from treatments that have shown promise in earlier research. They also make an important contribution to medical science by helping doctors learn more about the disease. Although mesothelioma research trials may pose some risks, researchers take careful steps to protect their patients.

My Winter goodies from OHWTO arrived a few days ago! Huzzah. I have to admit I was a little worried, my order didn't ship until a good while after the stated TAT, but now I've got my grubby mitts on it just the same so in the end I'm satisfied. Plus there was an extra full-sized bottle of perfume oil included in my order, I guess just because Becca is amazing and super generous? It's happened before, actually – I've gotten extra goodies in my orders a few times, and while I would never expect it it's certainly a wonderful surprise. This time I got a full bottle of a scent called "Stuffed Stockings," which I can't find a description of to save my life – it's not in the winter listings on the OHWTO website or anywhere. So I don't know anything about it, except that it smells AMAZING. Like it might be my favorite thing in the whole order and I didn't even order it. Ridiculous.
Here's what I got, and initial "first sniff" impressions. Full reviews to come!
It's Just Fruit: Buttery fruit. This one is so yummy. (Full review)
Samovar: Tea and something herbal and a little sweet. (Full review)
Holiday Cheer: Sweet and spicy. (Full review)
Not Your Grandma's Fruitcake: Light and fruity. Very fresh for a winter scent. I smell banana. (Full review)
Orenjipai: Creamsicle. (Full review)
The Cake is a Lie: Delicious lemon cake. (Full review)
Winter Vacation: Spicy cocoa and something minty. This one is kind of chilly. (Full review)
Stuffed Stockings: Rich and sweet and almost a little fizzy? I definitely get orange, and maybe chocolate. It smells incredible.
O Holy Night: Church.
White Lily: Inoffensive floral.

Gov't Shortchanged Youth. Again!
The government has once again backtracked on the promise made during the campaigns to empower the youth if the recent parastatal chiefs' appointments are anything to go by.
It started early this year with the appointment of Cabinet and Principal Secretaries, which failed the youth representation test.
Another failed attempt to empower the youth is the directive to give them public tenders. This has failed to materialise due to lack of a sound policy framework, and the presence of powerful cartels in government departments that are still controlling procurement processes.
The recent appointment of 36 heads of parastatals, largely drawn from among retired civil servants and politicians, is a clear indication that the government is more concerned about consolidating power than addressing youth unemployment.
Why is the government overlooking the youth in public service appointments? If one looks at the role they are playing in the private sector, it is clear they are the ones driving the economy.
When the President announced the new Cabinet, he did not create a ministry dedicated to youth affairs. Instead, the President promised to form a youth directorate to oversee their programmes, which has not materialised to date.
Debate on the recent appointments has gone viral in the social media, with young people expressing outrage at how the government has lost touch with their plight. Considering the role they play in elections, this is not a good political capital for the government.
Kenya, like many African countries has a huge proportion of the youth as its population. Young people aged 35 and below constitute 78 per cent of the population. However, appointments and promotions in the public service are not commensurate with this reality.
The common misperception, which has refused to go away over the years, is that youth are inexperienced as opposed to elders who are considered wise and experienced. But leadership is not just about experience. There are other strengths such as focus and creativity that young people can inject in public service.
While it is vital to tap into the experience and the wisdom of elders, it is equally important to integrate the vigour of the youth. As Kofi Annan has rightly noted; "Any society that does not succeed in tapping into the energy and creativity of its youth will be left behind".
As a country, we will not make headway unless and until we recognise the enormous potential of our youth. The country has created enough education opportunities and without creating policies that both encourage absorption in the public sector and support of entrepreneurial skills, the efforts will go down the drain.
The government must match its words with action. Most important, it should move fast and implement the promises it made to the youth during elections.
