Cultural Village Tour

Visit a real Zimbabwean village and learn what true rural life is about, and see how villagers have kept the culture alive

Monde Village - Victoria Falls cultural village tour

Monde Village near Victoria Falls

Victorial Falls cultural village tour - the dish rack made by the villagers

The home-made dish rack

A visit to a local Zimbabwean village is an eye-opening experience and interactive tour, giving insight into the old ways of the Zimbabwean people, essentially taking you back in time. Most rural Zimbabwean folks are subsistence farmers, so they have little interaction with urban centres apart from if they want to sell surplus. Villagers interact more with each other than with the outside world.

The Start of the Cultural Village Tour
You are picked up from your hotel/lodge, and taken through the largest and oldest township in Victoria Falls on the other end of town. Then you are taken to the highway where you will travel 12kms out of town to a dirt road, which takes you to the rural village. It is less than 10 minutes on the dust road to the village. So it is about 25 to 30 minutes to get there.

Monde Village

Victoria Falls Cultural Village Tour - under the shade where the socialising happens

Under the shade where socialising happens

In a quiet side of the rural countryside is Monde Village, where you will meet the local inhabitants, go through introductions, and talk about their culture, customs, history and daily lives. You will be shown the how their homestead is set up, the animals that they keep, what sort of equipment and utensils they use, the way their rooms are set up, they kind of food they eat, and so much more. Depending on the time of your tour, you may participate in preparing food and/or other chores.

The tour lasts about 2 to 2.5 hours (including travel time).

What you will need to bring
• Sunhat & sunglasses
• Camera
• Comfortable shoes
• Groceries and gifts are optional. There are school-going children in the village, so supplies are welcome.

What will you need to know
• This tour is great for families, and is suitable for everyone.
• Tours can be arranged for any time of the day.
• You are not required to bring gifts, but you may do so if you wish.

Dior B Ring

Filed under Jewelry & Accessories

by Fel on January 20, 2008

This super cute & adorable B Ring from Dior is an absolute heart-breaker! I mean, just take a good look at the crystal-encrusted bee at the center of the ring and the heart-shaped cut-outs in its wings… aren’t they lovely? The dangling logo charms also sweeten the whole look.

I’d say, wrap this US$155.00 beauty up for me, please!

Publisher Johnson ignored in death

Published: Wed, August 17, 2005 @ 12:00 a.m.

A giant in American journalism, a recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom and many other honors, died last week -- and attention was not adequately paid.
I speak of John Johnson, the visionary, generous and sometimes ornery founder of the company that has borne his family's name since the 1940s and has published, among other things, Ebony and Jet.
Johnson once said: "We wanted to give blacks a new sense of somebodiness, a new sense of self-respect. We wanted to tell them who they were and what they could do. We believed then -- and we believe now -- that blacks needed positive images to fulfill their potentialities."
He, like Wilbert Tatum of the Amsterdam News in New York, took issue with those of us who worked for the mainstream (a.k.a. "white") press. They challenged us in that tradition of the labor song, "Which side are you on?" Johnson is largely how many black editors, producers, corporate executives, civil rights activists, politicians, playwrights, novelists, entertainers, athletes -- even Bishop Desmond Tutu -- got to where we are by giving us that "sense of somebodiness," cultivating our dreams and celebrating our successes.
Perhaps because Ebony and Jet were always a part of my life -- and that of many black families and black barbershops and black beauty parlors -- I felt rather comfortable deconstructing it and finding it irrelevant during the time when I was full of myself at Columbia University Law School.
When I told Mr. Johnson -- and he was MR. Johnson -- that my law school classmates and I had tried to figure out how to take over his corporation, he laughed. He'd met many an idealistic fool before, and his standard answer was essentially a challenge: Start your own magazine.
While he was the ultimate race man, shining a spotlight on the positive among blacks that mainstream media seemed never to find, he was also the superb businessman. That $500 he borrowed to start his first magazine while working at an insurance company turned into a $500 million empire.
Generous man
I recall running into him at a little grocery store on Michigan Avenue in Chicago and he was using coupons. He knew how to make a dollar go far, raising tens of millions of dollars for scholarships, donating $4 million to a school of communications at Howard University, and presenting $1 million most recently to the state university of Arkansas, where he was born.
He was a proud man who when he built the Johnson Publishing Co.'s headquarters on Michigan Avenue included a cafeteria that not only provided wonderful subsidized food for his employees but, most important, assured that black folks -- entertainers, athletes, civil rights leaders and such -- could eat well and comfortably and not have to guess which white establishments might welcome them or turn them away.
Because of all that he did I am angry, though not surprised, that most of the mainstream American media did not pay attention to his death and life in a manner that it should have.

Flags help Dallas wrap up Browns

Published: Mon, November 19, 2012 @ 12:05 a.m.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo (9) scrambles as Cleveland Browns defensive tackle Billy Winn (90) gives chase during an NFL game Sunday in Arlington, Texas. The Cowboys won in overtime 23-20.

Associated Press

The Cleveland Browns were already hampered with starting cornerback Joe Haden injured.

All those penalties against the defensive backs who did play certainly didn’t help, especially on the drive that allowed the Dallas Cowboys to force overtime.

Safety T.J. Ward was called for unsportsmanlike conduct for a hard hit that knocked a ball loose and one of his teammates out of the game. And Sheldon Brown got a 35-yard pass interference penalty that set up a tying field goal for Dallas, which then won, 23-20, in overtime Sunday.

“Either we start slow or finish pretty strong, or we start fast and don’t finish,” Ward said. “That’s kind of been our problem this year. We just have to figure out how to close things out.”

The Browns (2-8) have now lost five games by a touchdown or less, this one after building a 13-0 halftime lead.

Buster Skrine, who replaced Haden (abdominal injury) in the lineup, was called for illegal contact on consecutive plays in the second quarter. Skrine then got called for pass interference before Dallas scored a go-ahead touchdown in the fourth period.

Ward, who had a pass interference call against him, initially said the defensive penalties weren’t the right calls. Seven were against the secondary.

“Maybe a couple. But not as many as they called. What are you supposed to do when a receiver is pushing you?” Ward said. “I felt like we were playing one-handed out there.”

The Browns got the ball back with 5 minutes left in regulation when Frostee Rucker sacked Tony Romo, forcing a fumble that the defensive end recovered at the Cleveland 28. They were stopped on fourth down from the 1 when tight end Jordan Cameron wasn’t able to catch the ball in bounds.

But after stopping Dallas on three running plays and using all their timeouts, the Browns got another chance.

Joshua Cribbs had a 21-yard punt return, plus an additional 15 yards tacked on for a questionable call against Dallas (5-5). John Phillips was called for a horse collar though the replay showed he actually grabbed hold of Cribbs’ hanging dreadlocks.

Brandon Weeden threw a 17-yard TD pass to Benjamin Watson, putting Cleveland up 20-17 with 1:07 left.

It was then on a pass Romo threw toward Kevin Ogletree that Ward delivered a hit that knocked the ball loose. That also put the receiver and Skrine on the ground and drew a penalty for what officials called a shoulder-to-helmet hit.

Skrine left the game with what coach Pat Shurmur called a concussion, and didn’t return.

Ward said he aimed at the chest, and insisted that is where he hit Ogletree.

Three plays later, Brown was called for pass interference while defending Dwayne Harris along the right sideline. The ball was marked at the Browns 14, from where Dan Bailey kicked the tying field goal four plays later.

“I thought the ball landed out of bounds. I thought we both had hands on one another. I didn’t hit him,” Brown said. “He was lying on the ground hurt. I don’t know how he still got hurt. Then he came back in the next play. There might have been a little acting going on there.”

Bailey kicked a winning 38-yard field goal nearly 9 minutes into overtime after both teams had punted once.

On the final Dallas drive, Miles Austin appeared to make a catch, take a couple of steps and fumble the ball that was picked up by Cleveland. But the play was ruled incomplete, and the play was non-reviewable by replay though Shurmur called timeout hoping they would at least reconsider.

“I think I saw it a little bit differently,” Shurmur said.

Romo was sacked a career-high seven times, but completed 35 of 50 passes for 313 yards. Bryant had 12 catches for a career-high 145 yards.

Where Did I Come From? NOT in Malaysia and other things that are totally awesome

Before I post my review for today I wanted to mention a few things. Over the last couple of days, my readership exploded and I couldn't quite figure out why. All the visitors seemed to arrive here by Goggling this book, Where Did I Come From? by Peter Mayle. I was flummoxed as to why that book would suddenly be of interest only to discover later that Maylasia is banning the book for moral reasons. Not just banning it, but if a bookstore is caught selling it, the owners could be jailed for up to three years. Wow. While I do empathize with cultural sensitivities, as far as I'm concerned, nothing happens in that book that doesn't happen in bedrooms all across Malaysia every night of the week.

But hey, whatever floats your boat. Or, rather, doesn't float your boat. ;)

Next, if you don't usually tune into my blog during the weekend, do so on Saturday as I'll be featuring an interview with Jon Klassen, author of the awesome I Want My Hat Back and illustrator of the equally awesome Extra Yarn as part of my weekend contemporary author series. He's an extra awesome person and lover of old books (like us)!

Also, I have my Etsy shop filled again, and over the next few days will be adding more, including some of the rarer titles we own, so check it out.

Happy hump day! (Pun totally intended.)

Read along on Pinterest, Instagram, Facebook, tumblr, Twitter and Etsy.

ahoi! said...

Great. I was hoping you'd interview Mr. Klassen. Looking forward!

Melissa@Julias Bookbag said...

1) You are awesome and funny

2) I totally read this book when I was 7 and found it Very Informative and Entertaining.

3) Hurray for Mr. Klassen! I'll be tuning in!

4) Really Malayasia? REALLY??

Amanda said...

Totally traumatizing book as a child. I remember my mother reading it to me in the car on the freeway so I couldn't run away while she was reading it. Come to think of it, that explains a lot. . .

And why would Malaysia bother with banning an over 20 year old book? I imagine there are a lot more troubling things going on than a biology book for kids.

Anonymous said...

looks like malaysian politicians really know how to riducule themselfes. it's the facts of life - how can they be not appropriate and lead to bad things? not knowing them leads to far worse. sad, sad, sad - and after 40 years (sic!). some brains must work real s-l-o-w.

grrl + dog said...

i recall my smaller brother rushing in to let me in on the big secret after being read the book.

He got to the part where they explained orgasm and it was sooooo cute. I had to keep a straight face on the entire time.

virgin islands on line : St. John : hotel & villa reviews

Esprit Villa 03/31/2008
Reviewers Rating: Good
We rented Esprit through Catered To. Overall, the villa is very nice....very caribbean in style and decoration. Plenty of outdoor seating options for enjoying the view or reading. The living room furniture is very comfy, overstuffed couch and chairs. There's a powder room and laundry room right off the front entrance; very convenient. Very private location, not difficult to get to. Kitchen was well equiped and we like to cook so that's saying something. There are two bedrooms downstairs on the 2nd level, and a very small bedroom on the lowest pool level. Unfortunately the lighting is very poor at night and we never used the pool area except to grill our dinner, not to dine outside or take a night time swim. It was so windy (not breezy--WINDY) that we never were able to use the pool day or night. We called Catered To to fix the pool/grill lights and they did replace a few bulbs. They were very responsive. :) Please email for any details I have forgotten. We have been to St John 9 times and this was our first experience with Bordeauz Mountain. I am told it is always breezy due to the East Trade Winds. It's a nice enough house but we prefer warm sunny areas and we couldn't enjoy the outside very much.

Virginia Wine In My Pocket

Our friends over at Virginia Wine In My Pocket have released their iPhone app! I downloaded it and installed it on both my iPhone and my iPad. I spent some time going through the app and finding out all about it. If you are at all interested in or visit many Virginia wineries, this is the app for you.

It is full of information about more than 150 wineries in Virginia. Each listing includes tons of information about the winery, where it’s located, operating hours, tasting fees, phone numbers, websites, directions, and a detailed history about the winery and winemakers. Part of each listing is a slideshow of photos taken at the winery. If you need help getting to the winery you can even click on a link that will take you to Google maps and get driving directions to the winery from where you are! That’s a great feature. You can also keep track of your favorite wineries with a favorites list. My favorites list already has some 70 wineries!

This is a very comprehensive app. I can’t think of anything they haven’t included. Warren and I usually plan out our winery stops but I could see using this app on the road to find a winery we haven’t visited before. Click here to get the app. Below are some screen captures from the app.

"I just wanted to take a moment to let you know that the Vision engraver is an item that has performed as advertised, and has done well for us. The problems have been few, and you have been quite helpful when we did need help. With most machines there is always some letdown when it won't do something that we expected it to. We have not had this with our engraver. Thanks so much for such a good product."

Information about Group Practices

What is a Group Practice?

According to The Medical Group Management Association, a group practice is any relationship between three or more physicians who share facilities, expenses, profits and other resources like support staff and equipment.

Group practices tend to fall into two categories: those that organize around a particular medical specialty and those that encompass several specialties like North Austin Senior Health Ctr that specializes in family medicine.

Why Group Practice?

As medicine became more complex in the twentieth century, the need for group practices made more sense. Physicians found it impossible to know everything about the emerging drugs and technologies on the medical landscape. In addition, the cost of providing a full range of diagnostic services, such as tests and X-rays, in one location became prohibitive to the individual practitioner. Hence, doctors from various disciplines began to team together in order to provide more comprehensive care to their community of patients.

Benefits of Group Practice:

  • Access to doctors from various disciplines for referrals and advice
  • Better coverage on weekends and off-hours
  • One-stop clinics for comprehensive care and testing

Federal regulators to talk about SC nuclear plant

Apr 28, 2010 4:10:00 AM - thestate.com
Federal nuclear power regulators are holding an open house to discuss safety performance at South Carolina Electric & Gas Co.'s facility near Jenkinsville.

Staffers from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission will be at Wednesday's meeting, which begins at 5 p.m. at McCrorey-Liston Elementary School in Blair, about 30 miles northwest of Columbia. The public is invited to ask questions and get an update on the plant's operations.

Regulators say the Summer plant that SCE&G operates with state-owned utility Santee Cooper met all agency safety objectives last year and does not require any additional oversight.

Meek Mill and Cassidy are at it again, engaged in a war of words on Twitter over who would beat whom if they were to ever battle.  Meek tried to clown Cassidy by flashing photos of all the money he has and how he won't battle Cassidy unless he or an outside source will put up $100,000. Cassidy, on the other hand, is confident that he would catch a body if the two ever do face off.  Cassidy thinks Meek is scared, while Meek thinks Cassidy wouldn't be able to compete with his bars.

If they can ever come to a middle ground and face off, who do you think would win the battle?

<i>SpaceShipOne</i> Wins $10 Million X-Prize  - 2004-10-04

The privately-funded craft SpaceShipOne has completed a flight into space after an airborne launch above the California desert. The flight will bring the spaceship crew the $10 million X Prize. The project is being hailed as the start of a new space age.

The combination rocket ship and glider was carried aloft at dawn beneath a carrier airplane. At 14,000 meters, it was released to fire its engines. Thirty minutes later, pilot Brian Binnie brought SpaceShipOne to earth.

The ship was doused with champagne in a runway celebration, and pilot Binnie offered some patriotic words to cheering onlookers.

"I thank God that I live in a country where this is possible," he said.

The team will recoup $10 million of its development costs when it claims the Ansari X prize, an initiative to promote space tourism. X Prize founder Peter Diamandis made the win official just after the craft landed.

"It is our pleasure to announce today in Mojave, California, that SpaceShipOne has made two flights to 100 kilometers, and has won the Ansari X Prize," he said. "Congratulations."

X Prize rules required two trips to the edge of space within a two-week period, with a pilot and ballast equal to the weight of two passengers, 180 kilograms. The crew performed the task twice in five days.

Aerospace designer Burt Rutan developed SpaceShipOne. It is one of dozens of efforts around the world to develop private craft the space industry. He is now working on a larger ship that will seat five passengers, under contract with Richard Branson of Virgin Atlantic Airways. Mr. Branson hopes to ferry tourists to space by 2007.

Tickets will be expensive at first, costing $200,000. Later, says Mr. Rutan, the price will go down. His challenge, he says, is to develop a craft that is safe, and he pledges to do it.

"I absolutely have to develop a manned space tourism system for Sir Richard Branson that's at least 100 times safer than anything we have ever flown manned to space, and probably a lot more," he said. "I have to do that."

Virgin chief Branson, on hand for Monday's flight, called it "a magnificent achievement."

SpaceShipOne is barely larger than a private airplane. Its unique hybrid engine burns rubber and nitrous oxide. Financial backer Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft, was also on hand for the flight, and he called it an "incredible feat of technology."

"This is amazing. This is rocket science, OK," he said. "This is real first-class, top-line rocket science executed to an incredible degree of precision, and this flight couldn't have been any smoother."

Monday's flight was the third by SpaceShipOne past the edge of space. Pilot Mike Melvill was awarded civilian astronaut wings June 21 for the ship's first spaceflight. Last Wednesday, he made his second space flight, the first of two required for the X Prize.

Dozens of Rohingya Muslim 'Boat People' Escape Thai Prison

  • VOA News

Thai officials say dozens of Rohingya migrants from neighboring Burma have escaped from a detention facility where they were being held for illegally entering the country.

Police said Tuesday at least 86 Rohingya broke out of the facility in southern Sadao district. Media reports say they punched a hole through the ceiling and climbed out using a rope made of clothes. Officials say at least two have been rearrested.

Thailand is holding about 2,000 Rohingya "boat people" in immigration facilities across the country. The Rohingya have fled sectarian violence and government discrimination in Burma.

The Thai government originally said it was looking for other countries that would take the Rohingya. Recently, it has considered a plan to move the migrants to refugee camps along the border with Burma.

That plan was slammed Tuesday by Human Rights Watch, which called for Thailand to release the Rohingya from what it called "inhumane detention" and allow them to seek migrant worker status.

The New York-based group says many of the immigration centers holding Rohingya are severely overcrowded and lack access to medical care and other basic services.

The group says Rohingya men are being held in small, cage-like cells, where they barely have enough room to sit. It says some of the women are subject to sexual and other types of exploitation.

Thailand has intercepted many Rohingya boat people at sea, redirecting them to third countries such as Muslim-majority Malaysia or Indonesia. Human Rights Watch says Thailand is failing to offer the migrants protections guaranteed under international norms.

Tens of thousands of Rohingya have fled Burma's western Arakan, or Rakhine, state, where violence broke out with majority Buddhists last year.

In addition to the violence, Rohingya are also denied citizenship and other basic rights in Burma, where they are considered immigrants from Bangladesh. The United Nations considers them one of the world's most persecuted minority groups.

Court: Pakistani Dr. Jailed for Militant Ties, Not Helping CIA

  • Ayaz Gul

Pakistani surgeon Shakil Afridi (File Photo)

Pakistani surgeon Shakil Afridi (File Photo)

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan - Court documents obtained by VOA say the Pakistani doctor who helped the United States track down Osama bin Laden was jailed last week not for working with the CIA, but for links to militants. Shakil Afridi’s conviction has dealt a serious blow to already strained ties between the U.S. and Pakistan.

The United States has been demanding that Pakistan release Afridi, calling his detention unjust and unwarranted. A U.S. Senate committee even symbolically voted to cut aid to Pakistan by $33 million, for every year of the doctor's sentence.

In its detailed judgment released Wednesday, however, the Pakistani tribal court says Afridi was found guilty of having close ties to militant groups waging war against the state. The verdict says that as the head of a government hospital in his native Khyber tribal district, Afridi was facilitating treatment of wounded militants linked to the outlawed extremist group, Lashkar-e-Islam, and was funding the group's subversive activities. The document says the association made the doctor liable to be tried for treason.

The surprising revelations come a week after the controversial court announced its brief verdict. It was widely believed at the time that the doctor was punished for helping the United States track down Osama bin Laden. Afridi was accused of running a fake vaccination campaign to confirm the al-Qaida leader's presence at his compound in the Pakistani city of Abbottabad.

Analysts like Hassan Askari Rizvi say the judgment and subsequent 33-year sentence has surprised many in Pakistan because several well-known clerics have ties to militant groups involved in terrorist attacks.

“It seems that he has been framed under those charges in order to avoid the issue of his role in the Osama bin Laden case and his conviction as well as sentence seems exaggerated, unrealistic, and there is a need to provide him an opportunity to go to the higher court,” said Rizvi.

Professor Rizvi said the latest court details are unlikely to stop the United States from pressing Pakistan to release Afridi.

Human rights groups also have urged authorities to give the doctor a fair trial, reiterating their long-running demand that Pakistan repeal the tribal justice system, which does not give defendants access to a lawyer.

Alexander McQueen

location Paris, 29 February 2008
location Paris, 29 February 2008

INSPIRED by British colonialism, regal triumphs and his recent trip to India,  Alexander McQueen proved himself a veritable C.S Lewis of the catwalk today – the same day, in fact, that he announced his Gucci-owned company had hit profit for the first time and, after a show like that, who could have cause to doubt it?

McQueen's has arguably been one of the most desirable show passes every season since he started out 14 years ago and, if that's the case, the autumn/winter 2008-9 one will be the golden ticket. More than 1,000 of us sat spellbound as the one of the most beautiful fashion fairytales of our age was unveiled, accompanied by an intoxicating soundtrack of Mozart, Hadyn and Nirvana.

"I've got a 600-year-old elm tree in my garden and I made up this story of a girl who lives in it and comes out of the darkness to meet a prince and become a queen," the designer explained backstage. What emerged was a darkly gothic creature with huge backcombed hair, wearing head-to-toe shrink-wrapped black leather with a skeletal branch as her crown.

Minutes later, she was a crinoline princess, wrapped in a whirl of knotted chiffon dripping with jewels from her forehead all the way down her intricately tucked bodice. Sari silks had feathered chiffon fountains bursting from beneath them, silken robes were embroidered with delicate peacocks whose beaks met at the strapless neckline and colonial velvets and ermine coats were richness personified.

Court couturiers Norman Hartnell and Sir Hardy Amies both had a place in this historical collection, but McQueen more than ever managed to whip up the most covetable of the British and Indian couture details and stir them into an incredible fantasy by way of his highly skilled tailoring techniques.

He was even kinder than usual to his models this season. They could walk - and breathe - more easily than ever, making this possibly McQueen's most romantic, unmissable collection to date. (February 29 2008, PM)

Jerusalem - Livni Renewes Attacks On Netanyahu As 'Post' Poll Shows Her Party Sliding

Published on: January 11, 2013 08:44 AM
Change text size Text Size
Tzipi Livni, head of the Israeli Tzipi Livni, head of the Israeli

Jerusalem - The Movement party head Tzipi Livni on Friday renewed her campaign against Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, saying he was “leading to an end of the Jewish state,” just a day after a new Jerusalem Post/Globes-commissioned poll revealed that her party was losing ground to the joint Likud-Beytenu list.

“The Israeli citizens face a choice between extremism and Zionism,” she said. “The State of Israel is in grave danger and everyone must wake up now,” she said.

The Likud-Beytenu list has gained support for the first time in more than a month, according to a Smith Research poll conducted this week for The Jerusalem Post and the financial newspaper Globes. The poll found that Likud Beytenu rose two seats from 32 to 34, while The Movement fell from 10 to eight.

“Right-wing voters are returning, because they are starting to understand that in this election, it is important to strengthen the Likud in the face of attempts by the Left to return to power and push Israel to divide Jerusalem and return to pre-1967 borders,” said coalition chairman MK Ze’ev Elkin, who heads the party’s campaign in the national-religious sector.

Livni made headlines this week for efforts to consolidate a Center-Left bloc ahead of the January 22 elections. She met with Labor head Shelly Yacimovich and Yesh Atid head Yair Lapid in an effort to present a united opposition as an alternative to another Netanyahu-led government. The tripartite meeting ultimately failed to reach its goals, with Yacimovich and Lapid accusing Livni of using them as “fodder for a calculated spin.”

On Friday, Livni also warned that Netanyahu is trying to dupe the Israel public into believing there is no Palestinian partner for peace. “Netanyahu will do everything to say that there is no partner and that there is no hope for peace,” Livni said. “But I was at the negotiating table. I led the talks. I know that a deal can be reached.”

She continued: “Netanyahu is aiming in every direction and is using any means necessary to convince everyone that there is no hope for peace. He says that the whole world is against us, that everybody is anti-Semitic, that there is no partner, and when I speak against his poor policies he and his government accuse me of collaborating with the enemy.”

Livni’s comments came just a day after Netanyahu reiterated his stance that Palestinian Authority Mahmoud Abbas was not interested in peace. Abbas met with Hamas leaders in Cairo earlier this week to discuss reconciliation, which Netanyahu said was evidence that he is not a serious peace partner.

Livni, when she was foreign minister, was instrumental in getting the Quartet to set three conditions for engagement with Hamas: recognition of Israel, forswearing of terrorism and acceptance of previous Israel-Palestinian agreements.

She wanted the girls to study, but they are not studying because of the pressure of some people. The people, who are doing this, think that there is nothing in study for girls.
On 9th October 2012 when she was coming back from her school, men fired on her and the bullet crosses her forehead and now the bullet is in her shoulder. She was injured with her friends. Her friends are now safe but she is in the critical situation. Please pray for MALALA.

Penélope Cruz Joins Ben Stiller in Zoolander 2

Deadline reports that Penélope Cruz has hopped on the Zoolander 2 train and will star with Ben Stiller. Justin Theroux is attached to pen the script, and Stiller will perform double duties as the movie's director and non-ambiturner, ridiculously good-looking lead. Rumors that Will Ferrell and Owen Wilson will return as Mugatu and Hansel, respectively, have still not been confirmed, and there's no word on whether Cruz will be playing a super model. (But here's to hoping Cruz makes a Nespresso for Mugatu and something weird happens.) As Cinema Blend notes, Stiller has been teasing the follow-up for roughly a decade. No pressure, guys.

Viper Motorcycle Club hands out Thanksgiving boxes

Viper motorcycle club members also gave out Thanksgiving food boxes to people in need in Albany Tuesday night.

They held fundraisers throughout the year and collected canned goods.

They normally ride their motorcycles to the homes where they deliver food, but they took a van tonight because of the rain.

They look forward to this every year.

“It's part of our mission and what we do as a motorcycle club. Our club members take great pride being able to do something in the community to give back,” Marvin Thomas, President.

The motorcycle club will deliver food again around Christmas when they'll also give out toys and clothes for children.

Bridge construction continues -, South Georgia News, Weather, Sports

Bridge construction continues

Construction on a new Highway 32 bridge is now 33 percent complete.

Georgia Department of Transportation crews have been working since last year to build a wider and stronger bridge to accommodate heavier traffic.  The current bridge, which connects Lee and Worth Counties, is nearly 60 years old.

The project will cost about $9.7 million and is expected to be completed around this time next year.
