Kenya Hip Hop MC Kah Talks with Davey D
No Bullshit! No Compromise! are two phrases that accurately describe MC Kah who is one of the primary rappers in the 24 man supercrew called Ukoo Flani Mau Mau. The Kenyan born hip hop emcee hails from Dandora aka Hip Hop City which is a section in Kenya which has given birth to some of the country's dopest artists. Sharp on his politics as he is on the mic, Kah gives an insightful breakdown as to how Kenyan artists strive to keep a strong connection to the spirit and legacy of their Mau Mau freedom fighter grandfathers and grandmothers who went into the forest 50 years ago to organize and overthrow British colonizers. History shows that the Mau Mau paid a heavy price as this unarmed resistance force were killed, imprisoned and wounded in high numbers, however their unwavering commitment to 'die on your feet than live on your knees' is a mindset that has been transferred into the lifestyle of people like MC Kah and his crew.
Resolve not to give up on setting goals this year
Wednesday marks the end of the national Get Organized month and probably the end of many New Year's resolutions made in the wee hours of Jan. 1. Recent studies show though, that perhaps sticking to that resolution to exercise more, eat healthier or read the Bible more frequently is not as simple as having strong willpower. Forty to 45 percent of Americans make at least one resolution at the beginning of the year. By February, only 60 percent of those people are still following through. Psychologists from Waterloo University have studied the way humans make decisions. They found that the ability to follow through with a decision or resolution has almost nothing to do with willpower or IQ, and everything to do with the way a person's brain is wired. Don't be discouraged if you skip three days of exercising, lose your homework for the second time this week or eat that donut you promised yourself you were avoiding.
Lee Dodd’s No.1 way to become a more efficient webmaster: A Free Blog
Lee Dodd has written an article entitled 10 ways to become a more efficient webmaster in which he lists his favourite tools and services to make his sites run more smoothly. Right up in the number one slot is "A Free Blog". Lee advocates grabbing hold of a hosted Wordpress or Blogger blog: First, I feel like every webmaster should have a blog. Whether it is more of a personal blog for fun or something you plan to use to promote your business and even make money, I think you need to be doing it. Secondly, what Blogger and WordPress have done for the blogging industry is absolutely HUGE. These other tools are awesome and will save you time, headaches, and money, BUT the free blogging system these two big players are offering completely rock. Whilst it's great that he rates blogging so highly, what surprises me, given the audience he seems to be writing for, is that he encourages the use of a free platform.
