US FORCES JOIN KENYAN BATTLE


Al Shabaab militants were on the back foot on Saturday evening as they faced heavy bombardment from multiple fronts from a combined force of Kenyan troops, US drones, African Union peacekeepers and Transitional Federal Government fighters.

There was progress on the diplomatic front, too, when the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (Igad) member states endorsed the military offensive against the militants during a special conference held in Addis Abba Ethiopia on Friday.

The Igad Council of Ministers urged the United Nations Security Council to impose a blockade on Kismayu, a move which will effectively cut off billions of shillings collected by the militants to fund their insurgency.

The Kenya army alone is reported to have deployed at least 4,000 soldiers backed by Transitional Federal Somalia Government troops for a ground invasion of Kismayu.

Navy ships fitted with heavy weapons are reported to have arrived in the Somalia territorial waters and set up base around Bajuni Islands of Kudai, Ndoa, Chuvaye, Koyama, Fuma Iyu na Tini and Nchoni Islands


and the battle continues

@ Prince: Those black girls who wear "go get'ems" get gotten and played by men all the time. It may be appealing but the price they pay is a lot of vulgarity and disrespect. I'd rather be pretty, presentable, and tasteful. Save the sexy for my future husband, thank you.

Another pain: Squeezing in to things that don't fit, but thy look so nice. I've had my share of dressing room blues.

Politics › In Nigeria, Corruption Roots In Local Governments--foreign Tabloid. by Relax101(op): 4:03pm On Oct 22, 2011
[code][/code]BY JON GAMBRELL

ASSOCIATED PRESS

LAGOS, Nigeria -- Trumpets and car horns sound first, then local gang members rush by screaming and chugging cheap liquor as a convoy of campaign vehicles push through the crowded streets of Nigeria's main city carrying local candidates asking to represent the people in a system rife with corruption.
Races to run Nigeria's 774 local governments represent politics at its rotten core in the oil-rich nation, where crude sales prop up politicians and the neighborhood councils become their personal fiefdoms. Those living in the megacity of Lagos voted Saturday for their local representatives, but the results appeared to be a foregone conclusion as political fortunes are made and lost based on personality and muscle in Africa's most populous nation.
"I know they will change, (but) there's nothing we can do if they don't change," said B.G. Said, a 62-year-old voter who waited at a polling place that opened two-and-a-half hours late Saturday.
Nigeria inherited local governments from British colonialists and kept the system in place after gaining independence in 1960. Little changed under Nigeria's military dictatorships and when democracy took hold in 1999. The governments, run by council members and overseen by a chairman, remain responsible for road maintenance, sewage systems and markets, as well as assisting in health care and education in their areas.
[size=8pt]Yet even on Ikoyi Island in Lagos, which once housed the nation's federal government, potholed roads with little asphalt run past some of the most expensive real estate in all of Africa. Public schools remain dilapidated and overcrowded. Passers-by relieve themselves in open drains.
Area chairman Wale Adeniji, running for re-election under Lagos' ruling Action Congress of Nigeria, said his administration worked hard in its last three-year term. However, when interviewed this week by The Associated Press, Adeniji struggled to offer any specific improvements completed by his administration. He also repeatedly declined to say how much money his area received from the state as part of the federal funds allocated to local governments.
Still, as he campaigned and met with the public, no one asked him specific questions. Many surrounded him chanting the party's acronym ACN, and youths offered shouts of "Well done, sir!"
[/size]

Adeniji is one of the "Big Men," the "oga" in the local language, smiling amid the squalor and broken streets, asking once again to represent a people who long ago gave up on the government.
At a crowded local market near an army barracks, Adeniji made no promises of improving services when speaking to elders there. His entourage passed out gift bags filled with notebooks and unmarked boxes. Others received shirts and caps bearing his image.
"We will vote for ACN this Saturday," market leader Jokotade Logun Tairat promised after hearing Adeniji describe the voting process in her sweltering, dark office.
But she hinted at the Bosom-for-tat politics of the country: "We are like Oliver Twist: we keep asking for more. Please don't forget us."
Such exchanges, whether monetary or for favors later, remain common in local politics, said Foluso Idumu, the program coordinator for the Orderly Society Trust, which advocates for better governance in Nigeria.

State-level officials put trusted lieutenants or lackeys into local governments, who tailor their opinions and operations to suit their political "godfathers," Idumu said. Those who don't obey lose out on unmonitored government money, while those who follow orders end up with SUVs, she said.

Idumu's organization had to abandon a grant-funded effort to honor innovative local government leaders when a survey of more than 70 areas found no one worthy of the award.
"It's a national malaise, really," Idumu said. "We really still don't have democratic principles being adhered to and followed duly."
Opposition candidates, even for the nationally dominant People's Democratic Party, rarely campaign for office in ACN-dominated Lagos. On Ikoyi Island, the national party's candidate Ibrahim Babajide Obanikoro bucked the trend, campaigning one day with a host of buses, cars and motorcycles following him.
At one stop, many young, unemployed men known as "area boy" gang members drank from bottles of local liquor and jostled in close enough to touch the candidate.
"As you can see, I'm a man of the people," Obanikoro told the AP. "They have access to me and all the time they have my back."
Some of those men in the crowd attended Adeniji's campaign the day before.
On Saturday, voters waited on one rubbish strewn dirt road in Lagos Island, the commercial hub of the city, waiting to vote amid water-filled potholes. Nearly all said they voted for ACN and seemed content with the party.
"ACN is doing this democracy well well," said Risikat Jinadu, 63. "They are trying."

Many support the party for its most prominent politician, Lagos state Gov. Babatunde Raji Fashola, who they say is responsible for many of the improvements seen in the once crime-ridden city. Yet Fashola himself cast his ballot Saturday in front of a worn grammar school in his Surulere neighborhood, where daylight peeked through holes in the ceiling and worn wooden benches sat among litter on the cement floors.
Asked about local leaders being unable to even say how much government money they receive, Fashola told the AP: "That's no reason to make the conclusion he has 'chopped' the money, if he couldn't tell you why."

Still, the run-up to Saturday's election remains likely the only contact many in the Lagos public will have with their local leaders. Surveys by the Orderly Society Trust suggest more than half of the nation can name at the most one or two of those leaders, if any at all.

@ Relax: I suppose if you would like to converse beyond the pain of beauty then we should take it elsewhere out of the respect of the purpose of the OP.

Back to the topic at hand: I was a tender-headed child, so I hid the combs and brushes under the mattresses where my mom and aunties couldn't find them. "Amaka. . .Where's the combs? I know you hid them"

I never got free of painful hair experiences until I started doing my own hair, then I began to understand how it all works.

Things I've done: waxing, relaxing, braiding, weaving, high heels, pants that never fit

Things I won't do: piercing, tattooing, lazer treatment, plastic surgery, bone removal of any kind

Things I current do: low tension braiding, no relaxers, shaving, eyebrow threading (still hurts), lower heels

Beauty can be painful and expensive, but I think we are collectively moving towards safer and better options. Natural looking beauty is all the rage, so women have more minimalist options (this does not mean to let all of your regimens go). Yay for ladies!

Politics › Protesting Lasu Students Barricade Lagos-badagry Expressway! by Relax101(op): 12:58am On Oct 22, 2011
Lagos State University students, LASU, protesting the proposed hike in tuition fees, recently announced by the insitution, have barricaded the Lagos-Badagry Expressway.
The sudents locked the road with a seized BRT bus and an articulated truck, as movement on the road, as at the time of this report, is at a stand still.
Vehicles going out to Badagry are stuck just as incoming vehicle into the mega city cannot move beyond the school gate.
Trouble started this morning when students union executives of the school mobilised their colleagues for the protest. Other students were chassed out of the examination halls in the ongoing 2010/2011 2nd semester examinations.
Vanguard gathered that[b] the increase is over 700 percent .[/b]
According to a bulletin(INFO/PR/LASU/1192 issued by LASU’s Information and Public Relations Unit of the Vice Chancellor’s office on October 12 entitled “Proposed Increase In School Fees for the  2011/2012 Academic Session: New students admitted into the Arts/Education  faculty will pay N[b]193,750[/b]; Social and Management Faculty tsudents will pay[b] N223,750.[/b]
For Faculty of Law, the proposed fee is N[b]248,750[/b]; Part 1 students in Communications/Transport will pay, N[b]238,750[/b];  Science , N[b]258,750,[/b] Engineering, N[b]298,750 [/b]while College of Medicine  students will pay N[b]348750[/b].
