UK artist Andrew Paul release his first video 20 years after leaving the music industry. Andrew Paul is a reggae singer song writer who began his career chatting on sound systems in his local area of London Town.
Andrew later went on to record a number of hits with Gussy and the well know Fashion Record Label. Andrew says it is the miss management of countries by world leader that has caused him to pick up the mike once more. He says its the poorest of the poor who are being deprived of the necessities of life.
No one seems to want to speak out against the injustice our leaders are inflicting on its poorest people. As a result, he has teamed up with Dub Step producers Deep Fried Pisces to create a classic but modern track that is set to touch a nation. The single and video, which is full of emotion touches on issues relating to social injustice, corruption and poverty.
The video uses shadows, photographic images and special effects to tell a story that is affecting more and more people each day. Whether you agree with Andrew's views or not this is a must see video, as he preforms so well. Also listen to his new single SoundBoy Killer.

Co-star Ayoade helps make "The Watch" worth watching
The new R-rated comedy "The Watch" features a star-studded cast both on screen (Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill and Will Forte) and off (co-written by Seth Rogen). It seems ironic then that the film's saving grace is a relatively no-name British comedian who gets fourth billing and has been tucked to the side in most of the movie's publicity.
The man's name is Richard Ayoade. He's mainly only starred in British television comedies, including the hilarious "The IT Crowd" and the cult-smash "The Mighty Boosh." However, he's due for more attention after his scene-stealing performance in "The Watch" that helps keep the film matinee-worthy despite itself.
Instead of Ayoade, the film follows Ben Stiller as Evan, a small-town do-gooder who minds his time creating and leading various neighborhood clubs and managing the local Costco. His picture-perfect suburban life gets turned upside down, though, when a guard at his store gets murdered. Distraught by the criminal act, Evan creates a neighborhood watch (the original title of the film, but it was changed after the shooting of Trayvon Martin) with the help of Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill and Ayoade.
In between cans of beer and bonding chats, the quartet discovers the murder might be the result of a devious alien plot involving UFOs in disguise as average citizens.
The plot sounds like it could have some entertaining suburban satire along the lines of "Hot Fuzz" or "Edward Scissorhands," but the screenplay by Rogen, Evan Goldberg and Jared Stern barely touches on depth. Early in the film, for instance, Stiller notes in voiceover that he has several minority friends and is searching for an African-American to call his pal. There's a witty satirical idea in there about white America's dependency on minority relationships to prove their worldliness and goodness, but it's abandoned almost immediately after the first 10 minutes.
"The Watch" is far more interested in watching the four man-children run around Suburbia causing havoc, yelling and partaking in extended sequences of profane, probably improvised banter. Director Akiva Schaffer (most well-known as a writer/director for The Lonely Island, who make a cameo appearance) goes after those goals with an admirably goofy, and eventually contagious, spirit that helps some of the film's jokes hit their mark.
Stiller, Vaughn and Hill are all funny enough as well, but their on-screen comedic personas are becoming tired. Stiller is another stiff, easily flustered everyday man, and Vaughn is his usual fast-talking, wisecracking man's man.
Hill, despite being a comparatively new comedy star (his breakthrough roles in "Knocked Up" and "Superbad" came only five years ago), has his predictable jokes and quirks as well. It seems like a contractual obligation for Hill to yell at his on-screen mother at least once per movie (if this, "The Sitter" and the far superior "21 Jump Street" are to be believed).
They still manage to score some laughs, but their routines feel like exactly that: routine. The script doesn't help in some scenes, providing overlong conversation scenes and predictable set-ups, most notably an extended appearance by Evan's uncomfortably complementary neighbor (Billy Crudup) that results in an underwhelming punch line. Rogen and company also have a habit of finding extreme violence a lot funnier than I do (see the last half of "Pineapple Express").
Perhaps that is why Ayoade's performance feels so enjoyably fresh and lively. He's a new face with a new comedic sense. His dweeby presentation and dryly articulate timing and delivery easily results in "The Watch's" funniest moments. He's unfortunately the main character in a clunky mid-film plot revelation, but that's more the script's problem than Ayoade. For the most part, he is the film's saving grace.
And speaking of savings, "The Watch" would like you to know how great Costco is. The product placement in the film is rampant (Michael Bay would be proud). The main characters tout the undying virtues of Costco, as well as its immense selection, on several occasions.
It's not enough to ruin one's enjoyment of "The Watch," but it was certainly distracting as I attempted to enjoy the film with my delicious box of Junior Mints and a refreshing Sierra Mist.

New development...
Saturday, July 06, 2013
I've been in a car accident.
I'm sin and a half weeks after my hip replacement surgery and from that I'm doing fine. Last Saturday, I returned to the lake and started walking again. Since last Saturday, I've walked the lake (3.5 miles) 5 times... Yesterday was the fifth and I was kind of sore... I walked with my son and two friends and my back was acting up and I was tired... made the comment that I might have been pushing it, so I said that today I was going to rest and not go to the lake... I dropped off a friend and was taking the other friend home, when we were going through an intersection and were hit by another vehicle. Luckily, the three of us (son in the back seat) were fine. THe other driver was fine as well. However, my car took it pretty hard. It was towed from the scene and I'm waiting to hear what the damage is... I am praying that it can be fixed... it was hit very hard.
As for injuries... we were hit on the front passenger side, so my friend felt the most impact... her leg started bruising at the accident and I spoke with her today and she is sore and her arm is scraped a bit where it hit the door. She didn't mention much else except being sore. She says she's ok. I have a bruise on my left thigh, where it hit the steering wheel, my left leg, where I think it hit the middle of the car and my chest where the seatbelt was... and I am a bit sore. My son has a slight seatbelt bruise on his chest as well, and a small bruise on his hip, I think also from seatbelt.. and that is all. None of us needed doctors yesterday and we all seem to think we don't need any still... but we are watching it. I put in a call to my therapist and am waiting on a call back, but it's the holiday weekend, and I have PT on Monday, so I'll let them know them...
As for the car, it's our only one, so I only hope and pray it's able to be fixed and now I wait.
I am blessed that this isn't worse than it could have been, but with that said, you still worry about the mess you are now dealt with.. ya know?
I'm due to go back to work a week from Wednesday.. I need to get my pc and desk back to where it was... then I should be able to post like I used to... I will get back to sleeping upstairs, not in this makeshift recovery bed that I've setup for myself downstairs... I have about a week to get things back to normal here at home.
My son is in another production... it moves into tech week today. Show starts on Thursday night. Finishes up next Sunday. His band camp starts up August 12th and that'll be his official end to summer, then his official start to Junior year of high school and the businest year yet. BTW, took him with me to a physical therapy session and now he's thinking of making it a career choice... not too shabby. Football season starts up soon and my Friday nights will be spoken for.
IThanks for keeping up with me... as you can see, life didn't slow down at all, I was trying to keep up with my recovery, then bam... another bump in the road... Life is like that, isn't it?

I love getting to the point when the student finally understands the concept and tells me that they want to finish the problem on their own.

Absolutely wonderful! We'll be back!!!
Lovely Place for Diner
It was our first time visiting this elegant restaurant and we were very pleased with the greeting, the service and the food. Very well prepared and very tasty.
On the marsh
We had a delicious dinner, chose the pris fixe and it was an excellent value. Excellent service as well as food.
Amazing food, service and atmosphere

After many experiences, we returned. After ordering a cocktail, we asked for some bread only to be told that it was still in the oven. After our starters were served, we waited 45 mins for our entrees. Since the menu was not varied, the steak I ordered was inedible. My wifes meal was an only choice but was satisfactory. It will be a challange to return.
What a wonderful dining experience just ...
What a wonderful dining experience just outside of Kennebunkport. The setting, the service and the food is all excellent. I would recommend this for a quiet dinner for two or for a fun evening with a larger party.
Excellent quality food and great atmosphere.
On The Marsh in the best restaurant in Kennebunkport -consistent excellent food. The preparation and presentation are first rate.
Perfect evening
Excellent restaurant, great food and perfect ambience.
Lovely restaurant, beautifully decorated.
Love this restaurant. It's a great place tucked away from downtown. The food is great. Service is great! There's a perfect function room upstairs.

Wonderful experience. The place had great service and the food was very good. Will definitely make a return visit and am excited to try it again!
We have been there for New Year's Eve and for Easter and have always had a wonderful and enjoyable meals. Food is outstanding and the service is impeccable. This is one not to be missed if you live or are visiting Southern Maine!
Great Food, New York Prices on a Maine Marsh
We loved this place -- great food, wonderful ambiance, and excellent service -- but the prices were wildly high, equal to what we paid in New York City. Will probably not be back, though we enjoyed it very much.
Just ok
The setting is beautiful the decor delightfully quirky but the food alas was boring. This restaurant has multiple Wine Spectator awards hanging on the wall however the last one was in 2006. The amuse bouche was amazing a fried oyster over fried kale. It was stupendous but the rest was bland and tasteless. Too bad I wanted to love this place. But maybe it is because it was February in Kennebunkport and the town is deserted. Perhaps during the season it is better
Excellent ambiance and meal!
This was our first time to this restaurant (valentines day) that was high ranked on Open Table. We were not disappointed. Great ambiance and food. My wife had the haddock and I had the lamb chops. Both were very nicely prepared. I like my lamb medium (many diners like it medium rare) and it came to the table exactly the way I like it. We shared a dessert which was perfect for 2 people who don't want an entire portion. Finish with 2 cups of French Press and it was a very nice evening!
valentine's day
My husband and I had an amazing Valentine's Day dinner here. The server was very knowledgeable and attentive. We both agree it was most likely the best meal we've ever had.
Disappointing Dinner
The host John was very friendly and we were quickly seated. Our table was near a working fireplace. Unfortunately the fake looking electric fireplace did not radiate any heat and we were cold during our dinner. First up, the waitress brought us complimentary sea scallops from the chief, but we had to send them back as we don't eat scallops. Asked that we might have some bread instead and were told it was in the oven. Thirty minutes later she came back and gave each of us a very small piece of bread, I guess we didn't rate high enough to get the "basket of bread". Never send back complimentary food!! Next I ordered some tomato soup, what came out was a thimble sized cup of soup with a crouton!! Starving, I decided to ask the waitress for a second piece of bread, which I was told was back in the old oven. We then ordered two tenderloin entrees. The meat was perfectly cooked and tasted great. Unfortunately the same could not be said of the sides. On the plate with the beef, was a wall of potato bricks/blocks, nasty tasting, probably escaped from a kids happy meal!! The sad red cabbage also went back to the kitchen with the potato blocks. Finally my second piece of bread arrived!! The last surprise of the night was a complimentary shot glass of whip cream with Amaretto, sorry to say we don't like Amaretto. After paying $160 I left broke, hungry, cold, and very disappointed~
My husband and I use to love to have dinner at on the marsh. The last 2 times we've been it was a disappointment. The first time we were disappointed we thought it was just a fluke. But after the 2nd time it was unfortunately not very good. My husband had the duck and he said it tasted as if it had been cooked earlier and reheated. The salad was terrible. We are people who like to dine out and I'm sorry that I won't be returning to on the marsh
Felt Like Home
We enjoyed having a cocktail at the bar. The place was very warm and welcoming. We enjoyed our dinner and the service was excellent. We would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the area.
We chose On The Marsh for our anniversary dinner based on OpenTable reviews, but didn't know much about it when we showed up for dinner. The host (John, I believe) was very friendly and asked if we wanted a quieter table or one more in the middle of things. We chose the quiet option and ended up at what we later found out was the famous "Table 16," and could not have been more pleased! It was tucked away in a back corner and provided excellent private dining. The food was absolutely delicious and our server was the friendliest and most engaging that we've had in quite a while. We even received complementary champagne to start the night and amaretto to finish it. As we were leaving, John asked us to tell two friends about On The Marsh - and we've told about 20! This is a highly recommended place for a nice dinner in KPT, especially if you are celebrating any romantic occasion. A++ all around.
Usually like this restaurant
While I do come to this restaurant often, I think that I will probably not come during Prelude weekend again. While my husband and friend had a decent portion size for their appetizer and entree, mine and my friends husband had an embarrassingly small ceasar salad - about 8 pieces of lettuce leaves and three croutons and the butternut squash ravioli looked like an appetizer portion. They were both very good but compared to the other dishes, it looked like the restaurant had run out. I would usually give this restaurant a 4 or 5 overall rating but today it only deserves a 3. I will say that Keith the bartender, and John the host were the highlight of the evening.
Just Fantastic!
Beautiful decor and ambiance. Fantastic food, presentation and service. A true gem, don't miss this special and beautiful spot!
Perfect Dinig Experience
This was not our first visit to "On the Marsh"and it surely won't be our last. We celebrated our wedding anniversary and the experience could not have been better. The food was amazing, service perfect, and ambiance wonderful. We lingered and relaxed and never felt rushed. The live piano music in the background made for a very special anniversary. This restaurant is a must!
Intimate Dining
We come to On the Marsh two to three times per year. Birthdays , Anniversaries and when we want a nice dinner. The atmosphere and entire experience is exceptional. We have even brought our kids for early dining and have had great experiences.
delicious food. Every detail fabulous.
We also had a great waiter! Everyone here was so nice. We were shown the upstairs function room. To die for.......beautiful! A function here would be heavenly.
Great Restaurant
I had been hearing about On the Marsh for quite sometime but hadn't had the opportunity to go. My husband and I recently celebrated our first wedding anniversary and decided to have dinner here. We were not disappointed! I had requested a romantic table when I made the reservation and the host sat us at a very romantic table tucked away in the corner - he also brought out sparkling wine for us to celebrate. The food was amazing (it is a bit pricey but well worth the price). I would definitely recommend this place for the food, the atmosphere and the excellent service.
This restaurant was spectacular!
We entered this beautiful restaurant and John greeted us, so warmly. We had a beautiful table and our waiter was over the top. We split a wonderful apple appetizer and I had a scallop dish and my husband had a delicious steak. We then proceeded to the bar, and listened to a wonderful piano player. The atmosphere was so pretty, with every detail attended to. We loved our dining experience.

The entree selection was limited and heavy on meat dishes that sounded very filling such as venison. We ordered the lobster @$42 each. The menu description of the dish did not accurately describe it. The lobster was served hot on a cold plate of lettuce leaves with avacodo and artichokes with a tasteless dressing on it, not impressed ! We started with a caprese salad, you think the waiter would have said, Do you realize the lobster dish is a salad? Too gourmet, not impressed!

Not up to standards
I expected a lot from this restaurant as it had a rating of 4,2 out of 5... The restaurant outside is very nice looking, but inside it has a very old stuffy feeling, artificial dusty flower arrangements throughout the place. Food was just OK. My raviolis were cold and overcooked, my husban's duck entree was good, but how can you miss duck ? It lacked sauce and was pretty dry. At 8 pm we were the last table left in that place and the chef had left, so when another couple arrived at 8:15 pm they were advised that the kitchen was closed and all they could offer was coffee.

Adam Lambert Tells LGBT Youth in New PSA: 'It Gets Better'
Adam Lambert takes the baton from other stars who have recorded a PSA for "It Gets Better" campaign. The singer sends a positive message to LGBT youth out there from the point of view of an openly-gay public figure, saying even he still got bullied by people with "nasty" comments.
"It seems hard," Lambert said in the black and white video. "I think being different is always going to be a tough climb. There's always going to be people that are going to be scared of it. But at the end of the day, if you give those bullies and those people that are so ignorant and fearful of your lifestyle, if you give them the power to affect you, you're letting them win, and they don't deserve that."
In an attempt to explain how bullying is still pretty much affecting a lot of people, Lambert takes himself as an example. "Even someone like me, someone that has recently come into some success in his career. I'm touring the world, I have a CD out, I do music videos, I'm living my dream. Even I get bullied," he said.
"You look under any comment section on any article, and there's bullies in there telling me that I'm a f----t, that I'm ugly, that I'm gross - 'Ew, gross, nasty, he's a girly' - all this crap. I'm singled out and it's all 'gay, gay, gay, gay, gay,' even though there is so much more to me than just who I choose to sleep with." Closing the video, Lambert said, "It gets better, but it's up to you."
Lambert's PSA comes on the heels of 15-year-old Billy Lucas' suicide due to bullying. "Savage Love" columnist Dan Savage started the video series which was then supported by Ke$ha, Nicki Minaj and Aubrey O'Day among others.

How to Make an Italian Soda Bar
Last Friday Nate and I hosted our second annual lip sync/deaf man's karaoke party (which was hysterical, by the way). Anyway, for the first annual lip sync party I created an Italian soda bar. It was delicious and fun, so I decided to make it a lip sync tradition and did it again this past weekend. Today I'm sharing some quick tips for how to make an Italian soda bar so you can do it, too! It's perfect for summertime parties, but my kids love making their soda any old time. 😉
What you need for an Italian soda bar:
- Club soda or sparkling mineral water. Seltzer water works, too, but the club soda/sparkling mineral water has a little more flavor that compliments the Italian syrup nicely.
- Italian flavored syrup, like Torani. I went to Cost Plus World Market to buy my syrup, but you can also find it on Amazon. I provided six flavors for people to choose from. FYI: Vanilla goes nicely with every flavor, so that's a good one to have.
- Half & Half or Cream: Both half & half and cream work, and it gives your Italian soda a certain je ne sais quoi (or however you'd say that in Italian).
- Cups & Straws: The people need something to mix their drink in and with! I buy clear plastic 16-ounce cups with lids. For some reason the lids really impress people. The straws work for stirring and drinking.
- Ice: Be sure to have a big bowl of ice at the ready for your guests!
- Vodka (optional): If you want to spike your soda, vodka is a good neutral-flavored option.
How to Make an Italian Soda:
- Fill glass halfway with ice.
- Add about 6 pumps of syrup for a 16-ounce cup. Feel free to mix and match flavors!
- Add club soda, leaving about an inch at the top of the cup. If using vodka, add 1-2 ounces of vodka to the cup before adding the club soda.
- Add a splash of half & half or cream (about 1 tablespoon).
- Stir gently with a straw.
- Enjoy!
That's it! Creating an Italian soda bar is seriously super easy and it looks impressive at a party. {You're welcome.} Plus, the syrups last pretty much forever, so that's nice, too! Enjoy!

The Ultimate Car Camping Checklist
Last November my friends Catherine Connors and Tracey Clark invited my daughters and I to go camping in Joshua Tree for Catherine and Tracey's very first Project Girl Quest adventure. Catherine and Tracey told us to simply bring ourselves and they would take care of the rest. It ended up being an amazing weekend that completely inspired me to give camping another try. You see, Nate and I historically have not been great campers, and, to be honest, I always felt a little guilty that we weren't giving our kids more camping experiences. After camping with Catherine, however, I was totally ready to give it another go. She's an expert and I learned a lot from her that weekend. I've gathered all of that wisdom and created the ultimate car camping checklist, which I am sharing with you today!
After sending Catherine many texts and pretty much copying everything she and her husband Kyle did, our little family went camping in Joshua Tree for spring break and it was the best! Since it went so well, I feel it is my duty to share with you my checklist, as inspired by Catherine Connors.
Click on the image above to download a PDF of the checklist.
Please note: this is all about car camping, friends. You know, your-car-is-10-feet-away-from-your-tent type camping, not backpacking-10-miles-into-the-wilderness-to-find-a-remote-place-to-rough-it camping. I don't know that we'll ever attempt that latter type of camping because the car camping is just so perfect with kids. Maybe one day, but not now with littles under foot.
The list is pretty self-explanatory and I imagine I may be the person who uses it the most in the future. If you click on the image of the list above you can download a PDF and use it yourself! I do want to expound on a few of the items that you see on the list, so here we go:
- FOOD. Here's the deal, Nate and I were the worst when it came to food and camping. NO MORE! We bought a camping stove, which makes all the difference. And with some strategic food planning, we ate very well on our trip. For dinners I picked meals that could either be made ahead and frozen and then simply cooked in a pot (like chili or soup), or I chose items that keep well (like spaghetti, which doesn't require refrigeration, and hot dogs, which are super easy). We had lots of good snacks, simple lunches, and planned on cooking breakfast (eggs and sausage) just one of the mornings, with oatmeal and cereal for the other mornings. Oh, and freezing a lot of the food ahead of time (including bread and muffins) was super helpful. The food keeps longer and helps keep the cooler, well, cool.
- Instant Canopy: An EZ-Up is critical since most campsites lack permanent shade (especially in the desert!). We kept it anchored over the main picnic table at our campsite.
- Multiple Tents: When we camped with Catherine she had one tent that was dedicated exclusively to supplies. When Nate and I went with our kids, we brought 2 tents and had the kids sleep separately from us, which left lots of space for luggage and supplies in both tents. It's just so much easier to stay organized and find stuff with that extra space.
- Tent Heater: This isn't always necessary, but depending on the time of year it may be. We recommend only turning it on as you are going to bed and when you first get up in the morning.
- Extra Tables: If you are staying at an established campsite, there will be at least one table, but it's so nice to have more. I have two folding tables and we had them both set up.
- Binoculars: We purchased a pair of Celestron 15×70 binoculars, as recommended by Catherine, and they are SO FUN to have, especially at night! Not necessary but definitely a nice-to-have!
- Solar-Powered Twinkle Lights: Yes, these are cute and make your campsite pretty, but they are also very useful. I strung up a strand of these lights around the pop-up canopy over our table, so at night there was always a light source in our campsite. It wasn't too bright but could help guide the way. I loved having these, plus they come in useful for other things, too (like decorations for my lip sync party here at home last weekend)! Just make sure the solar panel is exposed to the sun during the day.
- Power Bank Charger: I have an external battery charger that can charge things for hours and hours. I bought it for plane rides but it is awesome for camping, too.
- Outdoor mat or artificial turf: Some friends lent us a big piece of artificial turf and another friend lent us an outdoor mat (like for a patio). We placed these at the entrances of our tents and they were SO AWESOME TO HAVE.
- Coffee When Camping: If you are a coffee drinker, there are two suggestions for you. First, instant coffee packets (like Starbucks VIA) totally work. But the second suggestion is just as easy and makes much better coffee: take an Aeropress. Easy cleanup and perfect for camping.
Everything else on the list should be pretty easy to figure out, but let me know if you have questions! And, as always, feel free to share your own tips below in the comments! I am certain there are some awesome car campers reading this who have secrets to share!
Before we go, I have one final tip: Joshua Tree is the best place ever for camping with kids. (Indian Cove Campground and Jumbo Rocks are our favorite campgrounds.) Joshua Tree is truly magical. The granite boulders are incredibly grippy, making it easy to hike and climb. And, with an emergency whistle and walkie talkie in tow, the kids can explore this otherworldly place and feel like true adventurers. My favorite part is that the desert is so DRY, so nothing gets damp or wet! (I am such a mom.) I know this last tip isn't helpful for everyone, but I just felt like I needed to sing the camping praises of Joshua Tree National Park. If you ever have the chance to camp there, take it!

Week 488 Weekly Menu
Hello friends! It's late and I just pulled in from another trip to Joshua Tree (we're addicted!) and either have the worst case of allergies ever or picked up a cold. So, I'm going to bed. But I promise to update this tomorrow with an actual menu for the week. But in case there are diligent meal planners out there dying to post their menus in the comments, wanted you to have a place to do so! So, please share your menus if you already have them done!
As for my menu, I promise to get it up here tomorrow! 😉
UPDATE 9:30 pm on Monday: I still haven't planned the menu for the week. This does not bode well! 😉 As soon as it's pulled together, I will get it up! Thanks to those who are sharing menus, you're the best!
UPDATE 10:01 am on Wednesday: Well, here we are, halfway through the week and still no menu! I love that a few of you are still posting, despite the fact I'm a slacker AND it was a holiday weekend. Bravo to you!
The end of the school year is apparently kicking my butt. I'm hoping to swing by the store today and I think this week we'll probably have meals like BLTs, Malibu Melts and other super easy stuff.
UPDATE 8:08 pm on Thursday: Oh my goodness, I typed the update yesterday and then never even hit publish! Needless to say there is not a meal plan coming. But this might be my favorite weekly menu post ever.

Snapshots from Malawi: Connectedness
It's been one year since I returned home from my trip to Malawi with ONE and Heifer International. One year since I dropped my kids off at school on my first full day back then fled to my car and wept. One year since I could not figure out how to process all that I had seen and learned. Over that year I have thought a lot about the experiences I had in Malawi and talked with many people about the trip. As I've grappled with a way to explain it all, I think I have finally found the word that encapsulates what our visit to Malawi was all about: connectedness.
I did a quick Internet search on the word connectedness and found on Wikipedia that in mathematics "connectedness" is used to refer to properties meaning "all in one piece." Bingo. That's it. This entire world and all the people in it, all in one piece.
I wrote many posts last year about the trip but never finished sharing everything that I wanted to. I probably never will share it all, but today, one year later, I want to offer a few highlights that represent connectedness.
Connectedness happened…when a woman named Josephine in a remote village in Malawi gave her phone number to me, embraced me like a family member, and shared the amazing work she does organizing village savings & loan groups that give people the opportunity to lift one another through pooling resources. Her work is transformative.
Connectedness happened…when the women in Josephine's savings & loan group decorated the folding table set up for the meeting with a tablecloth and vase of flowers, as women do pretty much anywhere there is a group of them surrounding a table.
Connectedness happened…when we visited a hospital in Monkey Bay and unexpectedly entered a pediatric room with two children inside, one a toddler, who was all smiles, and another older child whose body was visibly affected by malaria, even in sleep. The child's father sat at the bedside with a look so worn and heartbroken I felt we had entered, uninvited, into a harrowing yet equally sacred space.
Connectedness happened…when we saw first hand the impact that the Global Fund (where all of (RED)'s funds go) and PEPFAR have had in saving lives. So many lives.
Connectedness happened…when we took a boat ride on the Shire river through the Liwonde National Park, home to some 2,000 hippos and countless crocodiles, living in a pristine, untouched body of water. All I could think about on that boat was how desperately I want for the people of Malawi to experience development and prosperity, but that I hope we as humans can evolve and creatively find new ways to develop that won't destroy these natural resources like we have done pretty much everywhere else.
Connectedness happened…when we sat with a group of HIV-positive mothers holding their HIV-free babies, babies saved by CRT therapy that is stopping HIV transmission from mother to child. It is nothing short of miraculous. PEPFAR's goal of working towards an AIDS-free generation is about to happen and it is a thing to behold.
Connectedness happened…when a farmer named Mr. Mtika showed us his family's new kitchen, a separate structure from their home complete with a clay oven that burns wood more efficiently than an open fire. Mr. Mtika mentioned that their family uses one-third of the wood they used to, allowing them to reduce their carbon footprint. The Mtikas don't even have electricity and Mr. Mtika is acutely aware of climate change and his impact on it. (I'll just let that sink in for a moment…)
Connectedness happened…when we visited a small labor and delivery room in a medical clinic on the shores of Lake Malawi. They explained the clinic did not have the resources for c-section operations and emergent patients must travel 30-40 minutes over bumpy roads to get necessary surgery. Under those circumstances I would most certainly not have my youngest son in my life today. The sorrows that room had seen we could only begin to imagine.
Connectedness happened…when we spotted a herd of elephants, with strikingly dark grey skin, walking through the forest.
Connectedness happened…when the man from whom we purchased hand-carved wooden jewelry and key chains on the beach of Lake Malawi emailed us weeks after the trip, to tell us that he and his family are doing well, how happy he was to have our support that day and that he hopes we will not forget him.
Connectedness happened…when, time and time again, we stepped off of the bus into a new community and were welcomed with smiles, songs, embraces and love. Genuine love.
Connectedness. That what it is all about. That's why all of this matters, why ONE and Heifer International took a group of writers halfway across the world to see the issues, the problems, the solutions, the impact of foreign assistance, so we can continue to spread the word, to reaffirm our connectedness, the very fact that we are all in one piece.
As part of our trip we had the opportunity to meet with Oliver Pierson, Resident Country Director at Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC), and Patrick Kadewa, Systems Operations and Power Trading Manager, Electricity Supply Corporation of Malawi (ESCOM), as well as take a tour of the National Control Center for ESCOM. As a follow up to the trip I had the chance to interview the CEO of MCC, Dana Hyde. To refresh, MCC is an organization created by Congress in 2004 with strong bipartisan support to fight poverty by providing U.S. government foreign assistance in really smart and targeted ways. All countries that work with MCC are extensively vetted and each project takes 18-24 months to come to fruition. In addition, each country receives a scorecard, which you can (and should) check out here.
Dana and I talked extensively about why Americans should care about foreign aid. Dana pointed out that foreign assistance is not only the right thing to do and reflects our country's values, but it is also in America's best self interest to provide it to poverty-stricken areas of the world. Dana outlined three ways that U.S. foreign assistance has an impact, all three things that MCC is very good at targeting:
- Economic: The untold story of our government's assistance is that, when done right, it can help provide markets and opportunity for trading partners for American business. We live in a global economy and aid helps with the growth of other economies, which in turn fuels our own.
- National Security: Extreme poverty leads to instability, so investments in fighting extreme poverty reduces the need for investing in security. (Dana referenced comments by Defense Secretary Gates from early in this administration about this very issue – click here to read his thoughts on the matter, which are awesome and make so much sense.)
- Shared values and a moral perspective. This one is self explanatory – assistance is, quite simply, the right thing to do.
So, I've shared my stories and experiences. Dana has explained why foreign assistance is good for everyone. Now what?
Believe it or not you and I can have an impact. There is always the option of donating money to different causes and organizations like Heifer International and supporting programs like (RED). But your voice is also as powerful as your checkbook. Organizations like ONE and the US Global Leadership Coalition are constantly informing citizens about legislation and actions we as citizens can take to make sure our government continues to fund foreign assistance programs.
For example, just today I received a text from ONE letting me know that the Global Food Security Act (S. 1252) is coming up for vote in the House. By responding to the text, ONE automatically connects me with my representative. That's all it takes, a phone call to say you support the legislation! (Click here to find your representative!)
Malawi will forever hold a unique place in my heart. I hope to return. My daughters write letters to Mr. and Mrs. Mtika's daughters, who are the same age as they are. I hope these girls can stay connected and meet in person one day. But beyond Malawi, I hope that the fire I felt after that trip to tell the world how intimately and beautifully we are all connected never fades. (This is to say that if you ever ask about my trip to Malawi, get comfortable.)
Malawi, you truly are the warm heart of Africa. Thank you for sharing your sorrows, your joys, your people, your love.
I traveled to Malawi as an expense-paid guest of The ONE Campaign (www.one.org) and Heifer International (www.heifer.org). We visited to see the economic progress—and the lives changed—made possible by U.S.-funded programs and Heifer International's donor-supported programs.
ONE is a campaigning and advocacy organization of more than 6 million people taking action to end extreme poverty and preventable disease, particularly in Africa. Not politically partisan, ONE raises public awareness and presses political leaders to combat AIDS and preventable diseases, increase investments in agriculture and nutrition, and demand greater transparency in poverty-fighting programs. ONE is not a grant-making organization and does not solicit funding from the public or receive government funding.
Heifer International's mission is to end hunger and poverty while caring for the Earth. For more than 70 years, Heifer International has provided livestock and environmentally sound agricultural training to improve the lives of those who struggle daily for reliable sources of food and income. Heifer is currently working in more than 30 countries, including the United States, to help families and communities become more self-reliant.

In March the retailer reported a 40 per cent fall in interim net profit after underwhelming summer sales.
Top international news
- US stocks surged yesterday, with the Dow up roughly 1 per cent and the Nasdaq at a 14-year high as home-builder confidence increased and hopes for receding tensions between Russia and Ukraine brightened investors' view of the outlook for equities.
All three indexes extended gains from last week. The tech-heavy Nasdaq, up about 0.9 per cent, had climbed above the key 4500 mark, a level it has not seen since April 2000, and the S&P 500 was back to within 1 per cent of an all-time high in early afternoon trading.
Home-builders' stocks rose after the NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Market index showed that home-builder sentiment rose for the third straight month in August.
The PHLX housing sector index climbed 1.4 per cent, lifted by a rally in major home builders, including Pulte Group, up 2.2 per cent at $18.67, and D.R. Horton Inc, up 0.9 per cent at $21.02.
Ambiguity lingered in Russia, where tensions with Ukraine have recently rattled markets. Russian officials said yesterday that while all issues related to the country's humanitarian convoy to Ukraine had been resolved, no progress had been made on reaching a ceasefire.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose 167.75 points, or 1.01 per cent, to 16,830.66. The S&P 500 gained 15.26 points, or 0.78 per cent, to 1,970.32. The Nasdaq Composite advanced 40.15 points, or 0.9 per cent, to 4,505.08.
Something else for your morning
- What is the loneliest job in the world?
Could it be a field officer at the French-Italian Concordia research station in Antarctica, built on an ice plateau 3200 metres above sea level, and one of the remotest places on Earth? Or perhaps a scientist at the Northeast Science Station in Siberia, Russia?
The prize for lonely jobs could go to the average salesperson for a Kiwi exporter, especially in sectors like hi-tech. We send them off into massive foreign markets, against large and well-funded competitors, selling their wares armed with little more than a few glossy brochures and our good wishes.

The historic agreement on climate change marked a major milestone on Friday with a record 175 countries signing on to it on opening day. But world leaders made clear more action is needed, and quickly, to fight a relentless rise in global temperatures.
A jump in global temperature of 2 degrees Celsius would double the severity of crop failures, water shortages and heatwaves in many regions compared to a rise of 1.5 degrees Celsius, according to a study released Thursday.
Decades ago, the sight of seagrass swaying beneath the waters off south Florida conjured romance for those who dangled their fishing lines in hopes of catching redfish, snook or mangrove snapper.
Australia's Great Barrier Reef is suffering its worst coral bleaching in recorded history with 93 percent of the World Heritage site affected, scientists said Wednesday, as they revealed the phenomenon is also hitting the other side of the country.
Earth's record monthly heat streak has hit 11 months in a row -- a record in itself.

Coral bleaching has been detected in Sydney Harbour for the first time, Australian scientists said Tuesday, blaming the damaging phenomenon also found in the Great Barrier Reef on warming sea-surface temperatures.
