Stars and Stripes
When I learned of Jeanne's illness I wasn't going to post these pictures. I think it is really important, though, to stay positive
With that in mind I decided to show the pictures:
: From 2013-07-04 (by Eye-Fi)
I found the blue placemats at Big Lots. I had everything else. From 2013-07-04 (by Eye-Fi)
DD#3 made this cute little guy for her Dad years ago From 2013-07-04 (by Eye-Fi) From 2013-07-04 (by Eye-Fi)
Jeanne, you are in my thoughts and prayers every day.
Thanks for looking
and Happy fourth of July
What a neat table, I like how you did EVERY thing!! Tho that red 'n white runner down the middle really sets off
the table in such a great way! Love it. Dang but you are good at this tablesetting stuff, LOL. ( I never could master it, even with all the great teachers and inspiration here.)
Jeanne knows how much you care, and how concerned you are, Nana. And I know she'd not want any us to 'think twice' before sharing any holiday or celebration stuff. If....when....she pops in to look around, she'll expect to see our gang doing 'their thing'! And it will be a great distraction for her too I imagine.
Under the circumstances, with all the worry for her, I know its going to be really hard to carry on as usual. I am feeling it myself when I post on Facebook or here.
But I think we must 'celebrate' Jeanne's spirit and faith, and make this a festive place for her to come when she feels up to it.
I know how she loves summer in Iowa, and her gorgeous gardens! So any pretty summery tables or vignettes, whatever, to keep us going thru the non-holidays the next few months, would be welcomed by her I'm sure.
We've alway had to 'work' to keep things going during summers, since so many are outside doing stuff. Posts usually consists of tablescapes or shopping finds. Hopefully that will be the case this summer too. Guess I'll have to do some shopping, LOL. I've been trying to get rid of some stuff instead of bringing more in lately.
So have avoided thrift shops. That's is NOT fun at all.
hugs, Karen
Loved your tablescape. I feel all patriotic just looking at it. Made my 4th of July!
Oh, nana ... your holiday t'scape puts a smile on my face! I've been MIA from here for some time & hope to get back to some indoor work when I can't garden.
Love all the linens ...the stripes down the middle, those placemats & napkins ... best of all is that 'cute lil' guy' that your DD#3 made yrs ago!
Oh gosh, Holiday-ers, keep on sharing! Hugs, Jeanne S.
Nana...your 'Stars & Stripes' brought a smile to my face.
Love the bright patriotic colors . Those blue placemats from Big Lots are just perfect...never seen any like them before..and the cute Uncle Same your DD made is also perfect!
I understand you feelings about doing any tablescapes, but Karen is right...Jeanne would want to see us continue..and as she wrote...she enjoyed seeing this.
Thanks nana for once again keep us together.
Blessings to you...
Looking very festive and patriotic! Just needs some Sousa playing The Stars and Stripes Forever March!
Love the new placemats and the runner like Karen said.
Lovely job as usual.
Thanks everyone. It was a fun table to do.
Especially since I remembered to use Little Uncle Sam.
My Daughter got a kick out of it.
I am not an outside person
I plant flowers to have a reason to go outdoors.
So I have time to tables during the summer months.
Jeanne, I am glad you are enjoying your gardening.
Candy, I hope you will have some tablescapes to share with us soon. When you get a few minutes away from golfing.lol
Thanks again .
Nana, you are so great about sharing wonderful tables with us. You seem to have a good collection of items you can pull out to use. There's just something special about a red, white,blue table, just makes you feel like celebrating.
I have been such a "DUD" for so long now, although I did do some decorating for little DGD's birthday in May and put out a few patriotic things for Memorial Day and 4th. My enthusiasm just isn't there anymore I'm afraid, but hoping it will return someday. I certainly spent many happy hours coming here and seeing everyone's creations and trying to come up with some of my own.
It's nice to be able to come here and see pretty things and get our minds off other things. Keep em coming!
Nana, you've done it again. Love your table! I've got to get back to sharing again. So happy all of you make the effort to come here and keep this special Holiday forum active. It makes me smile every time I jump on here and see all the things to inspire me again.

2-D Realization of WiMAX Channel Interleaver for Efficient Hardware Implementation
Free registration required
Executive Summary
The direct implementation of interleaver functions in WiMAX is not hardware efficient due to presence of complex functions. Also the conventional method i.e. using memories for storing the permutation tables is silicon consuming. This work presents a 2-D transformation for WiMAX channel interleaver functions which reduces the overall hardware complexity to compute the interleaver addresses on the fly. A fully reconfigurable architecture for address generation in WiMAX channel interleaver is presented, which consume k-gates in total. It can be configured for any block size and any modulation scheme in WiMAX.

Coetzee's team has been the epitome of consistency and has led his side to an unbeaten run after nine rounds and keeping them focused on defending their 2012 Absa Currie Cup title.
MTN Golden Lions coach Johan Ackermann was in a close second place behind Coetzee with his side featuring among the front-runners in the competition.
Ntubeni has been one of the standout players this season with his relentless work ethic making him an important part in the Western Province machinery. The 22-year-old hooker is growing in stature and is continuing to make an impression in the competition.
Both winners walked away with R10,000 each, courtesy of the tournament sponsor Absa.
MTN Golden Lions flank Jaco Kriel and utility back Marnitz Boshoff were tied for second place.
It is the second time Boshoff has been nominated for Absa Currie Cup Player of the Month award, while Kriel has increasingly caught the eye in the competition making valuable contributions for the Lions.
Absa has been a proud sponsor of the Absa Currie Cup for the past 28 years.
The Absa Currie Cup Coach and Player of the Month competitions are designed to acknowledge and reward coaches for their outstanding leadership and players for their consistency and for notably contributing to the overall performance of their teams.
The monthly winners were chosen by a media panel consisting of respected journalists and commentators.

You are in for a treat, enjoy those samples and ready your wallet for a purchase.
It's hard to believe, but I have never smelled either. Part of me worries I'll be disappointed, part of me worries I'll be smitten!
As a longtime basenoter, I figure it's my obligation to at least sample these legends. I ordered two samples of each from luckyscent.
You are in for a treat, enjoy those samples and ready your wallet for a purchase.
Thanks to a formidable BNer PalmBeach I have my dear vintage Norma Kamali Incense(1982) on its way.
Still ahven't tried Puredistance though.
I wonder if he's playing Thin Lizzard?
Sartorial in my mind is another Duchaufour masterpiece. And Invasion is pretty special as well. Never smelled Puredistance, but plan on buying the smallest size bottle blind by the end of the year.
My bet is that you will love Invasion Barbare.
Both nice fragrances. Neither are in my top 10 or anything, but they are both very nice. I'm sure you will enjoy them. Certainly a must-try for anyone in the hobby.
Count me in as another one who has not tried these yet. Have to get a sample of these.
The two best scents on the planet in current production IMHO.
They are both worth sampling for sure. IB is very nice, though it's a little too light for my personal taste. M on the other hand has a nice richness to it, though the specific scent profile doesn't appeal to me. I'm not a big leather fan though.
I got both in my last sample order and they are terrific (and expensive!)
I also got Sartorial and will buy it soon.
Puredistance M is excellent, just beautiful. I need to revisit IB as I didn't fall immediately in love like everyone else seems to. First sample of IB was a dab so I need another sample to decant into a 3ml atomizer. I'm not giving up on it just yet.
Invasion Barbare is my SOTD. While it is a very nice scent, my first impression is that I'm a bit underwhelmed. For it's price tag, I expected more. I used a lot from a sample vial, so we'll see how it progresses today.
My comparison scents: When I put it on, KL Homme came to mind. Two hours in, I get Spazio Krizia Pour Homme. Last night, it actually smelled like Bond No. 9 Central Park on my hand. It does seem to morph a lot.
First impression of M was that it is very close to Bel Ami, but I have not given it a proper wearing.
So far, I think my wallet will be quite safe. They're nice scents, but not ones I would go out of my way to drop a lot of dough on.
I have the vintage Bel Ami and M and I do get the resemblance, M though is more plush and opulent, leathery and floral. Though I find Bel Ami more versatile and I like the leather note more, it smells like a leather jacket/ leather cowboy boots where M's leather is more dark.
OTE=1280adam;2922588]I had the same impression of IB.
I was expecting way more.
Very nice indeed but just not worth the price tag for me at the moment, maybe it'll grow on me.
I'm sampling M today![/QUOTE]
I think I'll give M a go tomorrow.
First thing I'd suggest is slow down!
Your olfactory system is far more complex (and often deceptive) than the fragrances. Try them off and on for the next few months and then report back. I can't even begin to count the number of 180's I've done on fragrances. Sometimes it's years before the the thing hits you. There's no denying the quality of IB, but it wasn't something I wanted to wear. Irritated the hell out of me actually. But now I like it a lot. Give the things (and yourself) some room. :-)
A very generous SA siphoned off some IB for me and that was enough really. It's very nice, but I didn't feel it bottleworthy at that pricepoint.
I think this Holy Grail pursuit is a myth for fragrance lovers -- there's always something nicer out there.
Is the juice worth the squeeze?
In case if you like Invasion you can get it direct from MDCI 10ml bottles. 5 bottles 90 euro delivered. good deal
After wearing it all day, I will say that at least "initially", I prefer Sartorial and YSL Rive Gauche. But to be fair, I will give it multiple wearings.
Great stuff OP! Another one to consider if you haven't already to complete a "holy trinity":
Clive Christian C for Men
Enjoy your samples
And you're not missing much. I mean, they're both decent, but I would put Divine L'homme Sage and Amouage Interlude against Pure Distance, and Maison Francis Kurkdjian APOM against Invasion Barbare. If you haven't tried those, try them alongside the ones you're sampling and let me know what you think...
- - - Updated - - -
Chuck, I haven't sampled either and not sure i need to but I'll probably jump in to see what the fuss is about. Given your thoughts so far though I have a feeling I won't love them either.
"As you walk down the fairway of life you must smell the roses, for you only get to play one round."
--Ben Hogan
Invasion Barbare: The first time I sampled this I was surprised at how much I disliked it. Then I looked at the pyramid: VIOLET LEAF! duh! I could have saved myself the trouble if I'd looked at the pyramid before I ordered. Violet Leaf is the note that makes popular fragrances like Grey Flannel and Bleecker Street such horrors, at least to me. I definitely smell Grey Flannel in IB. Many users actually like violet leaf or at the least they don't dislike it, (note how much love GF receives among frag users after so many years) but it's my personal fragrance kryptonite.
I'm sampling M again just as I finish writing this. Smells pretty good.
Last edited by Dernier_Cri; 10th April 2013 at 06:16 AM.
Just look at the people above - EVERYBODY is wearing these things
Question: I sampled Invasion Barbare from luckyscent and did not like it. Should i get another sample, but this time test it with a sprayer? I didnt completely dislike it, and i have found since that frags do tend to smell differently when applied as they should be.
On Monday, I told my wife that I got some Grey Flannel out of it! Must not be my favorite note. My wife likes IB a lot on me, but my extended wear yesterday did not wow me. I'll see how M fairs today.
QUOTE=Dernier_Cri;2924145]My 2 cents: Pure Distance M: Really nicely made. User friendly. I could never be passionate about it and I think it's just that little bit of cinnamon in there. It's a quibble, I know, but when you have a quibble you're not gonna come up with something you want to wear let alone a holy grail.

OK, about and hour and a half into M. Goes on like Bel Ami, then became a skin scent on me. I can't detect much of it, maybe others are getting more. I dabbed it on to both sides of my neck, once to my belly and twice to my chest. I really like to enjoy more of a scent for myself. Again, I'm trying to be patient and give it a chance.
IB was an all day wear for me yesterday. This morning, I slipped on the same t-shirt I wore last night after reapplying for a concert. So I wore IB for a good 14 hours yesterday. I'll say this, it had more presence on my skin than M does. I could smell it easier.
Just based on my initial one time wearings, for the same types of scents I prefer Bel Ami and Rive Gauche.
I'll also say this: in this world, some people are connoisseurs. They savor fine dining, enjoy art at high levels. That's probably not me.
While I'm too picky for low-end scents, I am a Ruth's Chris Steakhouse, Jos. A Bank Suits, Lower End Niche Scent (Creed and Bond) type of guy. I'm not McDonald's, I'm too snobby for meat and potatoes, but I'm not fancy enough for the Spagos of the world.
I don't think I have the appreciation for notes and subtleties in scents that these cologne require. I may just require simpler scents that are much more straight-forward.

The West is going after Kagame now, because he has been giving nationalist speeches since the recent past months or a year! I don't like Kagame as he is a Criminal genocidaire of Hutu and even Tutsi. He cares less of Tutis survival and he did, he could have started since a decade a healing between Hutu and Tutsi. The question is: why is the West now, going after him? Never trust imperialists, never! Probably they are planning to put a Hutu puppet in power in Rwanda as Hutu are majority in Rwanda. Hoping any future Hutu president of Rwanda need to listen to his people and not the west!
Interesting read. The West has had a love hate relationship with Kigame for sometime now. I dont expect it will stop.
As a Rwandan, we should show some consideration for people dying on their borders and for the conditions of ALL Rwandans within our borders.
I mean it seems like the genocide taught them nothing and they are now doing the same thing they say was done to them. The current regime is just as oppressing if not more than the previous.
How is that ok
We need to comment on the multiple and severe human rights abuses committed by the current regime within the country, on Tutsis and Hutus alike.
Political prisoners and murders when intimidation and black mail doesn't work.
The current power is out of touch with the reality of a country like Rwanda.
ICT,is not what people need. Forcing the farmers to practice monoculture ( only grow coffee for example) when the land is tiny IS NOT in touch with the reality of the country and the needs of the farmers. And a few modern farming machine bought with foreign aid will not change that reality.. the land is small.
Displacing people and expropriating them to create homogeneous neighborhoods of rich and poors, only so that the west can take pictures of a clean city IS NOT in touch with the reality of the country
Claiming that you have solved the ethnic differences by deleting titles from ID and yet practice segregation when you speak of the genocide refusing to acknowledge the suffering of one side of innocent hutus who done nothing and aren't killers is dangerous and it IS NOT in touch with the reality of the country.
Going to a war of greed in the Congo when what you get from it only goes to your pockets and the ones of those who support your folly IS NOT in touch with the reality of the country
Restricting freedom of speech and even murdering journalists IS NOT in touch with the reality of the country.
The current regime is OUT OF TOUCH with the reality of Rwandan people and their vision is not one that will bring a long lasting balance and the fact that you can't tell them nothing is even more disturbing.
The smaller and resource poor the country, the more benevolent the power must be to bring the people
together and create an effective system of power that is in touch with the traditions, the sensibilities and the cultural differences of all Rwandans and of what the country is. EQUILIBRIUM
Right now, its failing. Rwanda has simply achieve to reestablish an economic balance that already existed before they messed it up in the 90's but they have plundered the culture and brought more hate.
They have also ruined Rwanda's historic friendship with Congolese people within 18 years.
And ruined the image of Rwandans worldwide and forever.
The narrative of good savior is a big lie and this is a knows facts within hutus and tutsis alike.
Ask DEO MUSHAYIDI, genocide survivor, tutsi. who is now incarcerated in a Rwandan jail for life for trying to bring about that dialogue. They are stuck on stupid on painting a reality that is not what Rwanda really is and this is why in only 18 years they have managed to reduce Rwanda to the laughing stock of the international community once more. It is obvious we are devious.
These people attacked in 1990 and distracted a fragile balance that had taken a long time to be established. And at the time, Hutus and Tutsis lived together in peace. There was no issue.
Today nobody knows who is Rwandan and who is Ugandan or god knows what else.
Those who argue that every single person who criticizes Kagame wants the genocide is a brainwashed fool. NOBODY wants the genocide.
And it is precisely the regime that continuously associates everything else that isn't Kagame to genocidaire that is pushing an ethnic agenda. Do you realize that?
One side you say we are all Rwanda and on another you emprison Rwanda who disagree with you and its always on the basis of Genocide? The genocide is over and you aren't even allowed to use it as an excuse to kill others. What is the lesson learned?
The world needs to always remember that in 1990 Rwanda was ATTACKED.. the genocide and the war and the trouble started because the current regime, then rebels attacked and used of all sneaky tactics to destabilize Rwanda. They weren't happy with Arusha peace treaty allowing them to come back in the country and be part of the political space. They preferred to break everything and everyone and start over. And now they are still at war.
We believe FDLR is not a threat at all. Rwanda is in a war of greed unleashed by the evil axe they form with Uganda, same thing they've always done. They didn't care about Rwandans hutu / tutsi dying. They still don't care about Congolese dying.
They have no respect for the human life and their god is money and power. #FACT
There are OUT OF TOUCH with the reality of a peaceful Rwanda, and the world needs to monitor them closely.
And for both of them ,we can only hope that they would consider ending his scam of a democracy and 20 years in power, in dignity and exist.
Kagame is one of the African leaders who has learned to put a veneer of democracy on a deeply autocratic regime. He is also adept at guilt-tripping the west every time questions are asked regarding his actions in the near-abroad. The suffering of the people of Eastern DRC beggars description. It is appalling that the choice here is measly development progress against egregious violations of human rights at home and abroad.
As a "Western-born" expat living in Rwanda, I am flat out embarassed by this article. Not because Kagame is perfect or deserving of blind praise, but because of the tenor of extreme moral superiority oozing from this and so many other articles published these last few days.
When the West is able to stand up to the same level of political scrutiny as is being current levied on Kagame and GoR, I will perhaps be willing to read such an intense critique. Until that happens, I remain profoundly offended.
Western governments come under the same level of scrutiny from their own press as well as that of the rest of the world, not to mention from opposition political parties. Look no further than the endless barrage of criticism leveled at Barack Obama from Fox News and the Romney campaign to prove my point. I am profoundly offended by such coverage every single day, but such is the price of living in a democracy.
As a Rwanda it is sad to see that this past we keep trying to move past through education, better health care and overall growth is constantly brought back. Before 1994 our country had identity cards which stated your ethnicity because even I can't always tell one from another. It will be very hard to go back to the old days because of all the outsiders that have come back(myself included), we know that hatred and war is a huge waste of time, money.
The biggest issue to the stability to our nation though is those who still fill shame for the atrocities they committed and still reside in Eastern RDC, they've formed militia and are our single biggest threat to stability.
People who left the country in the 90's are also out of the loop, seems like they're still stuck in these colonial ideologies of hutus and tutsi. I admit there's always much more to do, but we will never kill each other like what happened in 94. Rwanda is a very different country. There's just too much to lose.
I have a strong admiration for the corrective mechanisms in western democracies. Look at the political fallout of the NOW scandal in Britain, Sarkozy may stand in the accused box. In the west, they have an obsession with the truth- talk about the inquiries in the US and UK in the aftermath of the Iraq war.
You are talking about western governments not being able to stand the test of scrutiny but do you think deaths that what is happening in DRC can be tolerated in any Western country? What about Kagame's vice-like grip on power and the ruthless suppression of opposition?
If this article profoundly offends you leaving you flatly embarrassed while you remain indifferent to the plight of Congolese across the border, then you are schizophrenic. Kagame is propped up by people like you, Clinton and Blair and some complicit western governments as pointed out in this article.
The fact that ID cards don't mention tribe does not mean that Rwanda has ethnic is one ethnically homogenous. The fissures could be even deeper. DRC is not a threat to Rwanda's stability- the monolithic power structure that Kagame has built. When he's gone, it will all unravel. The world knows the thuggish leaders in the region that are abetting chaos in E. DRC to squirrel away minerals.
Sarah, are you also embarassed of Kagame to sending Victoire ingabire to Prison because she was an opposition leader, expressing her freedom of speech. Would you feel okay if Obama sends to Prison now, before the USA November elections, the Republican presidential nominee, Mitt Romney, because of breaking the law, paying less taxes and enriching himself using the money stolen by a group of Central American oligarchs?
By the way, may I ask, Sarah. Are you one of those well paid western consultants who live of AID given to the Third world countries?
It is great that the west is trying to push H.E Paul Kagame to do the right thing.
This situation is a complicated one and I applaud even this mosquito bite because that is all it is.
At the end of the day it is well known by Rwandans across the board that Paul Kagame also has a huge responsibility in the killing of Tutsi because he made the conscious choice of disregarding the Arusha negotiation knowing very well what the outcome would be.
But in the name of his grand design of taking over the country he preferred that final solution so this puts him in the same camp as the extremist Hutus who murdered thousands.
His circle of extremist Tutsis is well aware of this but they prefer to turn away because they were promised a country and he delivered.
The powers who masterminded this refuse to take their responsibility.
So we cannot believe that the idea of reconciliation and peace is now fully implemented in the minds of Rwandan. You can tell by the silence and the fearful atmosphere in the country that people are unhappy but afraid to speak up.
How can you build on lies? Do you think you will be able to brainwash everybody? Impossible.
This government 's mottos for everything is "the tusti genocide" but they have killed their own tutsi people. It is a known fact. not a myth, not lies to distract the government, it is a lie and it is the poison in Rwanda's society today. A paper thin building that will catch fire any minute.
Unfortunately anyone who dares say this under RPF government will be put in jail accused of "revisionism"
Paul Kagame has an excellent PR team that paints his achievements and hides his wrong doing.
But this leaves out the average Rwandan and we cannot say how the economic progress is truly trickling down to him can we? Especially when Kagame personally owns the most lucrative businesses in the country. Rwanda is like his private estate and Rwandan minds must sing his praises only.. or at least be part of RPF.... Or rot in jail.
Paul Kagame will unleash his supporters world wide to terrorize Rwandans ( hutus and tustis alike) who aren't walking the line. Weather it is intimidation or isolation they use sneaky tactics to silence and confuse you. This is a fact. Under Kagame's rule neighbors must watch each other. A constant surveillance in a military state because a paranoid and guilty man is in power.
The west is very hypocritical in this situation as well.
They are hitting on Kagame 's hand lightly only because Congolese are starting to rise up.
We don't believe this is a genuine intention to take him down & halt his actions because Western corporate lobby's partnered with Kagame in this mess. To find the culprit, follow the money and find who is benefiting. Kagame might just be a minority share holder in Rwanda.inc and Congo.inc
Kagame is only becoming an embarrassing partner. Just like Mobutu, just like Habyarimana. They all had friends once too. Kagame himself threatened to spill the beans if they don't leave him alone.
We are only hoping that now he is realizing the importance of allowing his people to express their opinion equally because when everything was good, they had to keep quiet and let him lead.
Now that things are falling apart, he calls on "Africans for Africa"
Aren't Congolese Africans, aren't his own people Africans?
Keep in mind that Kagame might be swearing and assuring that he will step down in 2017 but this doesn't mean the RPF will step down.
No other party will be given the right to candidacy in the next elections and no one who is not abiding to the RPF will be allowed to take the lead. Do not be fooled.
Kagame is a smart man and his plan was designed a long time ago and for a long term.
We can only hope that things go without bloodshed.. and those who want to come out and speak the truth, citizens, journalists, ex officers risk their lives, find themselves beheaded in a ditch, riddled with bullets, or sentenced to life. Their family also suffer the consequences and loose their Rwandan passport and nationality. HILARIOUS and TRAGICAL. But the PR TEAM continues to report on everything else but that.
Clinton feeling guilty after abandoning Rwanda is now pausing with Kagame as is Kagame was the embodimment of all Rwandan's opinion. Not at all.
I blame the Western medias for letting this fake of a democracy go on for so long, sometimes even claiming that "in those countries" a dictatorship is necessary for economic progress.
How can anyone believe this? Was America even build on that notion? Never.. so what imagine that this can work in Rwanda?
I blame the cowardliness of African for following blindly and acting so disempowered towards the affairs of their own continent and always putting money before love.
It is time that Rwanda and Rwandans start doing the right thing. Same thing for Africa.
Enough is enough.
God bless us all.
+ 1 regarding what you said about Kagame disregarding the Arusha peace process back in 1993-1994, which is at the roots of all evils that took place in Rwanda. President Habyarimana was working towards a compromise between Hutus and Tutsis (not that he liked the Tutsis, but he realized that there could be no military solution). Kagame and his RPF, however, saw that the Arusha peace process would marginalize them, given that the Tutsis are only a minority in Rwanda, and so a democratic Rwanda would arithmetically be ruled mostly by Hutus, and so they consciously chose to sabotage the peace process, even if they knew it could trigger a genocide from extremist Hutus who didn't like Habyarimana's policy of compromise with the Tutsis.
In the end, it is the Tutsis who will suffer from Kagame's past and present Machiavellian tactics, because it has never been seen in the history of the world that a minority can rule for ever over a majority, so it's only a matter of time before the Hutus recover power in the country where they still form by far the majority of the population. I fear some settling of accounts when that happens.
You are wrong. Young Rwandans don't distinguish themselves by ethnicity any more. All are Rwandans.
People like you talk about events 18 years ago as if there are still scores to settle. There is only one logical conclusion to this and I support Kagame's efforts to prevent it.
How can you make anyone believe that ethnicities have magically been erased in just 18 years in Rwanda as if with a magic wand? Even in a unified state like Germany, which has been unified for more than 100 years already, people still distinguish Bavarians from Saxons from Swabians, etc., and clichés and stereotypes still persist (listen to what Bavarians say in private about the Northern Germans for example). And you would have us believe that an entrenched ethnic division like the one between Hutus and Tutsis has magically disappeared in Rwanda in only 18 years?
I'm afraid this magical outcome exists only in the regime's propaganda.
Kagame's human rights record has ALWAYS been grubby. Anyone who is trying to convince us that this is a new phenomenon is being utterly dishonest. There are countless (even more scathing) UN reports that implicate him in systematic slaughter of civilians. Perhaps the bigger question is why it has taken the West this long to wake up?
It is a welcome gesture to finally see the west holding this tyrant accountable. This is long overdue. However, do not expect the process to be easy. Kagame, as ungrateful as he is, will try to frustrate any push towards reform. However, there is no option. His destabilizing factor is reaching the hilt. We can't waste any more changes. He must be halted IMMEDIATELY!
Kagame planned the 1994 genocide, his army has killed thousands of Hutu refugees in Congo, and 8 millions congoleses dead are on his shoulder, as the master mind of all rebel groups in Eastern Congo. There are also economic crimes commited in Congo by this criminal. Paul Kagame is acting as a Tsi saviour, but never forget that the Congolese people will retaliate one day, it may take longer but Tutsi should know that they will pay back one day. There will be no tranquility until justice is done for Congo and Congolese.
Ok..so he planned genocide of his own people,then killed interahamwe genocidaires by spreading cholera in the camp-the evidence clearly states most of those people died of a cholera outbreak,and he is the mastermind of over 15 rebel groups in Congo...are u listening to yourself...okay lets assume he actually did all that,how do u say that u will revenge by exterminating everyone who comes from his tribe..brother u need help
Something is definitely wrong somewhere, with all these people talking about Rwanda and her president as if they know what it takes to fix a nation whose 1million has been massacred and another 1 million has exiled its self out of presumptuous fear that there will be revenge.
Special circumstances require special approaches, dont come with the one size fits all nonsense. I am certain all these is done with deliberate intentions to keep your Jobs.
I do not disagree that aid is supporting many of our people but my bigest disagreement here is that
this aid just as it is help our people it helps the donner far more than it helps the recipient.
I guess no details required on this who ever reads this know just as much, if you understand how this aid stuff works.
Back to DRC and Rwanda,
why is it that no one cares about the FDLR happily running in the jungles of Congo and their leaders
moving up and about in the capitals of the richest nations that promote justice and peace for all humanity and yet they know what these FDLR leaders of done in 1994 during the Genocide of the Tutsis. the entire UN and the people making noise about Rwanda know so well what will culminate should these FDLR reach kigali, anyhow no one whats to even think about it.
if every one knows about this, why does the MONUSCO seems at peace and at ease with FDLR and merry making at all times, they trade minerals with them for guns, medicine etc
and then you turn around you ask RWANDA about the M23, how does the UN have the audacity to make such an arrogation. this is sickening hypocrisy.
I know we may write, we will recommend etc etc
your conscious is not clear and all is done deliberately.
Rwandans saved themselves during the 1994
and so shall they during this time
as a matter of fact, these times are not the hardest we as Rwandans have faced.
You can keep denying your involvement in DRC. Tutsi are liars by nature. You should know that better than I, but that's not the point. What I want the world to know is that revenge is coming.Tutsi will pay back for what they are doing in Congo, no Congolese will tell you otherwise. Justice must be done and justice will be done by any means possible. Am a Congolese, and believe me or not, Tutsi will have a very rude awakening soon.
Thank you Mustson!
Abandi muri he? Dushyigikire ukuri, twiheshe agaciro. Ntitugaceceke ukuri kandi tukubona.
Humura Rwanda yacu ntacyo uzaba.
Why are Rwandan not worried about Journalists and opponents being killed? Or do they think that Economic development trumps freedom?
There is no way around freedom, ask Tunisians. Sorry if Kagame cannot allow room for critics, well he is simply a plain DICTATOR, one more that we African DO NOT NEED.
Rwandans are worried, but they cannot speak openly, because there is no freedom of speech in Rwanda, and if you criticize the regime you risk to compromise your future, perhaps even your life. The Rwandans that you usually find in the comment sections of Anglophone media are the Anglophone supporters of the regime. The silent majority cannot express their view, but sooner or later a revolution will take place and the regime will be toppled, as happened in Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt, and as is currently happening in Syria. You can only coerce a population for some time, but not for ever.
I totally agree with you John Garfiled! Rwanda and its "visionary" leader should know better. You can't just get away with systematic abuse of your fellow citizens. Sooner or later, you will be held accountable for the permanent disruption of civil life in the great lakes region. Rest assured that if human justice cannot handle this great task, Mother Nature will take care of it.
You people are crazy.
This is exactly why i like the chinese,their interest is purely economical,and they dont hide it.However, the west always wants to impose their power disguising as democracy and free-speech.Free speech provides for them an opportunity to influence opposition and easily remove a leader,hence maintaining control.For example,the previous congo elections cost $780m,this amount could uplift millions of congolese out of poverty.So how can one pretend to care so much about your freedom of speech but be relatively comfortable with your abject poverty...just wondering
Ironic that the line above reads "The Economist welcomes your views" and yet this article's main premise is everything but inclusive of those talked about in this article(i.e. Rwandans). It seems Eastern DRC is not worthy of asking the simple questions.For example,does it make sense that the "expertise" of six individuals escape any semblance of accountability simply because of the magic letters U and N. Or does no one wonder about granting automatic legitimacy to an organization who after failing to stop a preventable genocide, nicely accompanied the perpetrators across the border where they then got away with setting up the largest peacekeeping mission under which the only measurable result is the 1billion dollars that has been spent? To add to the logic of it all,the same organization then appoints a group of expert (in true UN Fashion,experts=expats) to write a report on the situation that could have been avoided if people could stop pretending that the UN will ever be effective in bringing peace and security anywhere. If there is one thing we can give them credit for though is the ability to write reports. And not any kind,only the kind that carefully avoids demanding results for almost two decades of "peacekeeping" in the same exact place and ensures that largest peacekeeping mission is never out of a job. Wait, maybe writing reports that provide no solution to the Eastern DRC crisis is part of a bailout plan for the Department of Peace Keeping Mission?
I am not sure this article makes sense at all...and i honestly don't know how to educate this writer who comes out confused and uninformed.
Something I find interesting in the aid industry is that donors have given up on the punishment option and therefore there are few or no incentives from recipient countries (called partners...) to comply with basic conditions (do not be corrupt, respect human rights, etc.).
Unlike markets, the donors do not punish cheaters (in game theory speak). You can cheat again and again because you know that donors cannot go back to their NGOs and say: yes, we just withdrew all our funds from [insert country]. And in the case of countries like Rwanda they can't because they won't be able to claim all the successes the claim for themselves (child mortality, number of kids in school, etc.).
The Aid Industry needs the recipient countries more that the recipient countries need them. Donors need to spend the money they have appropriated from the public purse. NGOs, think tanks, and consultancies want the contracts to spend the money. Why would they turn to their funders and say: 'no, we won't work there' or 'no, don't increase the aid budget'?
Recipient countries know this and play the industry to their advantage. Maybe if they were more interested in principles than in targets...
Nice perspective. If the threat to tighten to purse is not credible, then Rwanda will continue to ignore it. This is where I find admirable the Netherlands sequence of emergency intervention/aid, repeated and flagrant human rights abuse documented, threat to curtail aid and support conveyed to the GoR, and then actually acting on the threat!
For the first time in almost 20 years, Rwanda's cunning lies are being exposed as what they truly are, and Paul Kagame's regime is in dire need of re-inventing itself to survive.
"The UN report, written by a panel of experts with no obvious axe to grind..."
Are you kidding me?!?! It's headed by a genocidaire sympathiser!!!
This is ridiculous. The more the likes of the Economist keep acting like this, the faster they lose their credibility.
As for the Rwandan government, decisions will have to be made about which development partners offer a win-win arrangement rather than a relationship of master and slave.
Continuing to attach Rwanda and his President based on false, fabricated and controversial report made by FDLR advocate Mr. Hege is inadmissible. GoR works hard to reduce poverty for 12% in last decade, many social economic programmes going on, health insurance, infrastructure,... And today, western media are believing in false accusation and still advocate for Rwanda aid withdraw! Is Rwanda sanctioned because of his good accountability and transparency in aid use? What are human rights are talking about? Why you don't believe that Congolese people can stand up and fight their corrupted government which doesn't care about thousand of Congolese refuges. Rwandan people are proud for the achievement of their country, all bad spirit and evil lawyers are writing all worst stories on Rwanda and are based on rumors! Rwandan people with good leadership of Paul Kagame will still stand up, no one can steppe us down! WIth aid or without aid Rwanda will survive! We are not proud for all that money we don't deserve and sometimes we don't ask for. NGOs are almost behind this campaign because GoR for the accountability and transparency asked all donors to support throughout the national budget. So, Many of them have lost their way to mismanage the funding for their highest salaries and fabricated reports. Today, we are following a conspiracy, but I am sure that this will end up and Rwandan people will come out freely and proud! Some commentators are manifesting their hate to Rwanda, but we can never be discouraged by that.
The Rwandan regime has people working on the internet to influence comments in Anglophone media I see. Funny!
I find it bizarre that this article is a complete turn of perspectives than what has been written in the past by the Economist-"Rwanda:Singapore of Africa". In it the article extends high praises to the growth and economic development achieved by Rwanda under the current government. Now it seems like hard facts and rationale are being thrown away by unconfirmed/biased reports by certain groups and media outlets deemed to be seen as trustworthy truth on the situation in Eastern Congo.
My hope is for all this concerted attention to be placed at the people who are need of real help and peace in their regions, ordinary citizens. Pointing the blame will get us no where. Let us focus on the core systemic issues that need to be resolved in bringing stability and development to the Great Lake Region.
Of course it was unforeseen that issuing an arrest warrant for Ntaganda would result in destabilizing the region and undoing the hard-won gains in peace brought about by Rwanda and Congo's cooperation. Of course!
Qui bono? Who gains from undoing all this hard work of Rwanda and Congo, but particularly Rwanda? Qui bono? A good detective starts by asking the relevant questions.
If the economy is doing so fine, then he doesn't need our aid. Dilemma resolved.
Nothing has changed and UK and other donors should stop supporting this corrupt regime. In my time in Rwanda I only saw the rich getting richer, the fatter getting fatter and the poor getting poorer.
The Rwandan Govt and their ruling elite are the most arrogant people I have had the displeasure of meeting with a pathological ability to lie and and deceive.
This article from the 'last time' tells it well and is worthy of a read.
Why does the Economist keep repeating the lie about Kagame's economic performance? Subtract massive aid and pillage and you get negative growth every year. A higher percentage lives in poverty now than when he came to power and inequality has more than doubled. How can you call it one of the least corrupt governments when the money is coming from a mafia network manipulating aid and stolen bounty from next door? How can you talk about his "progressive" of women when all he has done is give window dressing to a repressive regime. More important than seats in the toothless parliament are the beating and imprisonment he inflicted on his main opponent for president, Ms Victoire Ingabire and the millions of women and children raped and killed because of his policies. Finally, how can you call people like Clinton and Blair "well intentioned" when they ignore all these crimes? The proper term for them is "war criminals" for supporting someone like Kagame, as laid out in the statute creating the International Criminal Court...
Rwanda gov is currently one of few remaining oppressive regimes in Africa. Continuing supporting Kagame is to support his continuous sponsorised crimes in Africa Great Lakes region. The best way to support Rwanda is to support democracy, freedom. A free Rwanda would not cause trouble in DRC. Kagame has been linked and accused to have committed a lot crimes. Thus he is extremely fearful about what might happen to him when he is not on power or controlling it. By undertaking inter-Rwandan dialogue guided by truth telling and spirit of reconciliation, Rwanda would achieve forgiveness, peace which will lead to harmonious communities and strong democracy. If this happens Kagame will go down in history as a former dictator who reconciled a broken country and bring about peace in his region. But if he decides to continue on his current path, he better start to book a room next to Charles Taylor and a page next Adolphe Hitler in the history book.
Mugenzi, so, after your stage-managed hunt by Rwanda Government operatives failed to work, you are now determined to throw as much mud as possible at the regime? well, keep trying and i can assure you, you will die trying. a handful of disgruntled greedy fugitives ranting from western capitals cannot worry this regime. Majority of Rwandans in Rwanda and abroad are happy with what this regime is doing, we can see what is happening elsewhere in Africa and none compares to the governance in Rwanda where everything is organised, people have access to water, healthcare,education and you tell me people aren't free? how would you even know that?
Access to water, healthcare and education is now new in Rwanda.
Rwanda was once called Africa's Switzerland, maybe now they want to make is Africa's Singapore. I wish it would just be Rwandan's Rwanda... that would make more sense.
What is wrong is not the idea that Kagame has improved many things since the genocide, and rebuilt the country. The "since the genocide" starting point is majorly important because Rwanda was before that and all wasn't wrong. But to justify the power take over, and the bloodshed you must paint the country in a totally bad light.
But painting Rwanda as a jungle without infrastructure before him is a big myth that shows once more how ego maniac the new character and his helpers are... and it serves to enlarge the economic progress. Progress is good. But stop lying too.
It would be interesting to compare the track record of both dictators and see what's good. He is no very different from Habyarimana. Started with good intentions, certainly accomplished many things but is now slipping into grandeur and paranois. The only difference is maybe that Habyarimana has less blood on his hands... and he let people live and make their business... he was also able to negotiate with his enemies and opposition... ah, and Congo was peaceful too.
There is a booming increase in GREED under Kagame.
Kinyarwanda is lost too. Nobody knows what language people in Kigali speak. It is not Kinyarwanda, it is not Ugandan, it is not English, it is a bad mix of all three, the good culture is lost. And Rwandan culture is very important to maintain the good and kind tradition of humility, respect, compassion.
Money money money... ha. let's see where it gets you. I see by your name that you are the lion everyone fears... it makes sense, u fit right in !I ve seen your name on many blogs always speaking aggressively . Instead of discussing ideas and solutions and fact, you threaten because that is all you know.
( when you tell the poor Rene C Mugenzi) "you will die trying" is that an actual threat? or just a way of speaking?
Is Rwanda a land of psychopath now? How can you not discuss with people like a human, listen to fact and responds with facts. You take this way to personally and you loose all sense of brotherhood with your own people. You are turning into a terrorist and these are the type of people who make average Rwandans walk the official line and talk the official talk. You see how you operate? Like I said.. you fit right in!

My Favorite SB Commercial [VIDEO]
Hey it's Dan. As we gear up for the Big Game...here is my favorite Superbowl commercial of all time.
Hey it's Dan. As we gear up for the Big Game...here is my favorite Superbowl commercial of all time.
Who do you think will win the Super Bowl? Which animal do you trust the most? Why are people even bothering to play football when we could all spend our time watching adorable animals instead??
He has actually won a Superbowl and has the experience to tell us weather or not the air pressure of a football makes a difference. We're talking about New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees who recently appeared on The Conan O'Brian Show on TBS.
Are you tired of one unhealthy food after another being advertised during the Superbowl? Rejoice fruit lovers, this year, for the first time, it's all about the avocados! By the way, guacamole is made from avocados, which is a fruit. It's a stretch, but we'll take it.
He's dreamy.
He's married to a supermodel.
He's the most hated man in Buffalo.
Ok, that last statement may be a stretch, but judging from your Facebook comments and Tweets, you don't like Mr
Here's one Super Bowl commercial that will give you chills.
Forget about the depth of the running game, the quality of the passing attack or the intensity of the defense. If you want to figure out who'll win the Super Bowl, watch this.
I don't know who this Jason Bojangals is....but I do believe I love him.
Ok, maybe just his panache for writing funny parodies. And when one includes A) a hit song Mix 96 plays, B) a dig at Tom Brady, and C) many Bills fans
Super Bowl ads are usually pretty controversial...and this year it seems there are even more than usual. Is viewership dipping? Or are advertisers just desperate to get their $360 million-worth!?!
This is how you make a statement.
Before the "DeflateGate" silliness, the NFL had a REAL scandal on it's hands...a flurry of assault and abuse cases involving players, and the league's seemingly reluctant approach to dealing with them.
It's hard to believe that the biggest story before the Super Bowl is about the amount of air in some footballs, but Deflategate continues to be the scandal that won't go away. With that in mind, the New York Times decided to do some investigative reporting to show fans just what goes on in a Wilson football factory.
Did Lance Armstrong learn his lesson? It doesn't sound like it.

"A good tasting drink made with amaretto."

2 fluid ounces
amaretto liqueur
3 fluid ounces
cranberry juice
The first time I made this, I thought is was too sweet, and my husband commented that it tasted like cough syrup. The second time I made this, I halved the amaretto, and it turned out much better. A splash of ginger ale or Sprite wouldn't be a bad idea either.
I ordered this in a restaurant (not by name, I doubt they would have known what it was) and it was sickeningly sweet. I would try it again with some additions... maybe some sour mix to cut the sweet.
5 Ratings
This was great. Next time I will try using equal amounts of amaretto and cranberry juice.
Interesting drink. I am in the middle--I'm not sure I liked it but I was glad for the opportunity to try it.
Loved it! Just enough tangy and sweet to balance each other out.

Have monstose Epi., P. ramulosa, L. monacanthum, B. rosea
Epiphyllum guatamalensis "monstrose": babies from seed, these make an awesome hanging basket! Long curley fronds, plant looks like madusa's head!
Lepismium monacanthum: also listed as a Rhipsalis. Babies from seed. A bit more prickly than I like but the beautiful orange flowers make it worth keeping!
Pseudorhipsalis ramulosa: babies from seed. I love this plant! Bright green in the shade but put it in the sun and it turns bright red! Can really set off a mixed hanging basket or stand alone by itself!
Billbergia rosea: babies from seed. My first time producing these. Cool tubular bromiliad around 2' tall.
Check out my trade list and profile... make an offer! Most wanted: ghost bones, Epiphytic ferns (ant ferns), hot weather bulbs and Tabebuia. Any Rhipsalis or Lepismium I don't already have. Ummm, bromiliads too!

On April 13, 2005 the House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly, 272 to 162, to permanently repeal the federal estate tax, also known as the death tax. But in the ten years since, they have all but dropped the issue. A stunning 236 of the current members of the House have never had an opportunity to vote on it. Fortunately, the Ways & Means Committee under Chairman Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) will soon consider a bill, H.R. 1105, written by Reps. Kevin Brady (R-Texas) and Sanford Bishop (D-Ga.) that would repeal the death tax. House leadership should bring it to the floor ...

I doubt your car CD player interfaces with your satellite radio to obtain track names for the CD. The more likely scenario is that the CD was burned with CD-Text info that your car's CD player read in order to display the names.
I will be out of the office until February 1st. Ill be checking email infrequently. But if you need immediate help, please contact Kelsey Allen (email@example.com)
Maybe so. but I am practically certain that there was no CD-Text burned with the CD. if so, then my other CD players would have recognized it. In fact, my player is in a satellite system (XM) which can access GN data.

AV Newbie....just saying hello! :O)
I just bought some African Violets today at the store.
This is my first attempt at getting them to grow.
I was excited, so I checked out the forum. lol
Sooo, hello everyone! :O)
Welcome to the wonderful world of violets! You'll really enjoy this forum if you get hooked on AVs...and that's only a matter of time! I found this out when I started about a year ago. The folks on this forum gave me some pointers, and tah-dah! now I'm scrambling to find room for my plants (my family call them my babies)!
If I had to pick one pointer that I would've loved to have when I started growing violets, it would be that they don't like their feet wet. I almost killed my first violet by over-loving (and thus over-watering) it! Now I make sure that the soil is always at least a half perlite mix, so that it doesn't retain water as much, and that I let them dry out a little between waterings. When the pots feel light in my hand compared to when I watered them, it's time to water again. I find that my violets are much happier that way.
Hope this helps you on the start of your venture! Enjoy the flowers, and the little thrills of watching them grow! And again, welcome to the forum!

J.R. Carrington Videos Favorite

Sin City Video
JR Carrington looks exactly like what she is – a California-born stripper and porn star. Standing 5'5" tall and sporting a fabulous pair of DD-cup tits on a 36-24-35 frame, JR's name is a combination of characters from Dallas and Dynasty. She was born in Tahoe n November 22, 1968, grew up in Newport Beach, and returned to Tahoe and Reno to work as a stripper. When no less a personality than Jenna Jameson urged her to get into porn, she made the first of more than 100 movies in 1994 at the age of 26. JR was famous for her love of anal in a time when most stars shied away from it, even going so far as the occasional double penetration. Although she retired from porn in 1999, she still strips, occasionally escorts, and works sometimes in Reno at a legal brothel.

The "Painted Wolf" (Lycaon Pictus), also known as the African Wild Dog or Painted Dog , is one of Africa's most fascinating and highly endangered mammals. They have a highly co-operative family social structure and are extremely persistant and effective hunters. They are our inspiration. We support the conservation of this intriguing and beautiful animal with a contribution from every bottle of wine sold and through our communications.
