The youthful exuberance of featherweight world titlist Shakur Stevenson is palpable. He is young and talented -- and he knows it. It's hard not to look at the 22-year-old in the ring and envision a long, glorious career ahead.
That he has found professional success so quickly is not a surprise. Stardom was predicted for him by anyone with remote knowledge of his amateur career. He entered the pro ranks with fanfare in April 2017 following his silver-medal-winning performance for Team USA at the 2016 Rio Olympics. He's just 13 fights into his pro career -- 65 rounds in all -- and coming off a one-sided rout of Joet Gonzalez to win a vacant 126-pound belt on Oct. 26 in Reno, Nevada.
Stevenson has so many goals and aspirations that he can hardly contain himself when he talks about them.
"Next year or two, that's where I'm trying to be at -- No. 1 pound-for-pound," he said. "It's kind of pushing it within a year, but two years? Yeah, I can do that."
"He's the second coming of Floyd Mayweather." Bob Arum on Shakur Stevenson
Stevenson had planned to go home -- or at least awfully close to his Newark, New Jersey, roots -- for his first defense against battle-tested three-time world title challenger Miguel Marriaga in the main event of the Top Rank Boxing on ESPN card on Saturday at the Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York.
But even though the show was called off on Thursday due to the coronavirus pandemic, it has not changed Stevenson's long-range goals.
The fight with Marriaga was merely a steppingstone fight in Stevenson's eyes. He approached the bout as though there was no doubt about the outcome. Stevenson (13-0, 7 KOs) thought it was only a matter of how spectacular he would look before moving on to bigger fights and eventually up the scale to challenge for world titles in a variety of divisions.
"I want to be a superstar in the sport, and to be a superstar you have to put on superstar performances, so I plan on this being a superstar performance and putting on a hell of a show for the fans," Stevenson said before the fight with Marriaga (29-3, 25 KOs), 33, of Colombia, was canceled.
Top Rank promoter Bob Arum has seen it all and came off very believable when he handed Stevenson the ultimate compliment as it related to his potential.
"He's the second coming of Floyd Mayweather," Arum said, comparing Stevenson to the all-time great he promoted for most of his career. "Shakur is tremendously confident in his abilities, just like Floyd. He is a superb defensive fighter, just like Floyd, and he is like a genius in the ring, just the way Floyd was.
"Look, we knew he was a talented kid when we signed him, but we've seen talented guys go bust and we've seen talented kids bloom, and he has bloomed."
The plan for Stevenson following the Marriaga bout -- and now even without it taking place -- is for a summer trip to Leeds, England, to face Josh Warrington in his hometown to unify world titles.
"They haven't announced anything on Warrington yet, so I think they're waiting on me," Stevenson said. "I think that's the only fight that will keep me at 126 [pounds] for another fight. If not, I'll move up to 130 and be ready to fight champions there. ... We will try our hardest to get Warrington in the ring next."
Stevenson said he wants Warrington (30-0, 7 KOs), 29, because he believes Warrington has the best résumé in the division -- counting wins against Lee Selby to win the title, former titlist Carl Frampton and Kid Galahad, each since mid-2018 -- and because he is viewed by most as the No. 1 featherweight. And Stevenson said he has no problem facing Warrington in his hometown, where he is a major draw.
"I actually think it would be better for me going to his hometown. I feel like if I go into his hometown and beat him, that's an amazing feeling for me," Stevenson said.
Stevenson looks up to fighters such as welterweight world titleholders Errol Spence Jr. and Terence Crawford. Both won world titles on the road in the United Kingdom.
"That's going to get me closer to that pound-for-pound list," Stevenson said of potentially defeating Warrington. "And in a few years, I'll be pound-for-pound No. 1."
Arum said he was "very confident" that he and Warrington promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Boxing would be able to lock down the fight soon. Arum said he loves Stevenson's desire to fight Warrington on the road.
"Muhammad Ali had that attitude," said Arum, who promoted Ali for many years. "The really great ones want to go and perform in other countries and other cultures. Crawford was like that. As long [as] the ring is square and it's 20-by-20, Shakur will fight anywhere."
Whether the Warrington fight happens or not, Stevenson said he plans to move up to junior lightweight later this year as he looks to also conquer that division.
"My body is ready for 130. I can't keep making 126 anymore," Stevenson said. "The only thing that will keep me here is a big-money fight with Warrington. If not, I'm ready to move up."
Once Stevenson gets to 130 pounds, Top Rank has several top opponents to match him with, including Miguel Berchelt and Jamel Herring, both of whom hold world titles, as well as former world titleholders Oscar Valdez, Frampton and Andrew Cancio. Stevenson said he also would love to fight junior lightweight world titleholders Joseph Diaz Jr. and Leo Santa Cruz.
"I want all those guys," Stevenson said.
Winning a world title against Gonzalez was a "dream come true" for Stevenson but, as he said, "it was just the beginning. I also want 130, '35, '40 and then '47."
In the history of boxing, only two fighters have won world titles at both featherweight and welterweight. Asked if he knew who they were, Stevenson immediately got one of them: the legendary Manny Pacquiao, who has won world titles in a record eight weight classes. The other name did not come to Stevenson.
It is Henry Armstrong, the all-time great who once held titles simultaneously in three divisions in the 1930s, when there were only eight total weight classes.
"I wasn't going to get him. I knew Pacquiao, though," Stevenson said. "But I still want to win titles in all those divisions. That's the plan, that's the goal."
How's that for youthful exuberance?

Coubic has been in the market since 2014, and appears to be a scheduling app for the Japanese market, originally started for the yoga and small class bookings. There are extreme limitations of this application if you are not Japanese. In fact, it is not usable as at the time of this article for non Japanese persons – all the marketing is Japanese, the UI is buggy and reverts to Japanese frequently. The app has a free tier, but it is very limited. The UI tries to be clean but fails to move beyond a simple bootstrapped theme.

An RAF hero's daughter told today how moves to close a North East air base would cause heartache for her family.
Penny Bailey, 59, had the ashes of her father, retired former RAF squadron leader Eric Woolley, scattered over the airfield at RAF Boulmer in March after he died last Christmas.
She and her sister, Jane Coulon, 63, and Mrs Bailey's daughter Teri Taylor, 30, travelled to the base together on a last mission of love for the airman, who died at the age of 91.
Now the station is currently under a Ministry of Defence review which is looking at four bases across the British Isles and whether they can be scaled back or even closed altogether.
Mrs Bailey, of Ovington, Northumberland, said: "My father was in the RAF all his career and, during World War Two, was awarded the DFC for his conduct.
"He was involved in coastal command during the war, so we thought Boulmer was an appropriate place and the squadron leader there gave us permission.
"It would be very, very sad if the base was closed and concreted over because it was a place where he would have felt very much at home with his background.
"Being in the RAF, you don't have a home town but my father did love the country.
"Boulmer is such a beautiful place and does such fantastic work. It is the sort of place dad would have felt very much at home.
"During the war he flew as a navigator with coastal command on Blenheims and Beaufighters and he won the DFC during a sortie over the North Sea.
"They had spotted a convoy and wanted to attack it. They came up against a lot of fire from the convoy but managed to destroy a good part of it. RAF Boulmer wanted us to do a little piece about him with a photograph that they were going to hang in their messroom as a tribute to him.
"RAF Boulmer does a very worthwhile job up there and should be allowed to continue doing it."
Mr Wooley, who died in an RAF nursing home in Aberdeen, spent more than 30 years in the RAF, after joining at the age of 17, and survived the war years unscathed.
The Boulmer base, near Alnwick, brings millions of pounds to the local economy and provides hundreds of jobs for local people.
The station, which is home to 700 personnel and 200 civilian staff, also includes the national School of Fighter Control, while its radar base and reporting station plays a crucial role in protecting UK airspace.
It brings an estimated £4m into the local economy.

As a music fan, it's easy to overlook Thanksgiving. Halloween is a bag stuffed with creepy goodies like "Thriller," "Monster Mash," "Ghostbusters," and a personal fave, "Werewolf Bar Mitzvah" (co-written by Childish Gambino!) Christmas' selections are too numerous to count - though we can clearly all agree none is greater than Johnny Mathis's "Sleigh Ride," correct? (Fight me in the comments below). Turkey Day has undoubtedly suffered a lack of music that could attach us to it emotionally. Instead, we associate it with parade floats and bad NFC football games.
Thing is, we don't need an entire month's worth of non-stop Thanksgiving music to root us to the holiday. That's a good thing since the pickings are slim. There's a quaint Mary Chapin Carpenter tune that puts you at the dinner table with fellow celebrants and that ridiculous song by Adam Sandler (though, in the era of idiocracy, his "turkey-lurkey-loo" atrocity might be the Thanksgiving anthem we deserve). Fortunately, there's a selection some of us already know and love that could carry the Thanksgiving music banner: Vince Guaraldi Trio's "Thanksgiving Theme."
The song was composed by the late jazz pianist for the 1973 TV special, A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving. The animated special returns for its annual showing tonight on ABC. If you've never seen the special, tune in this evening to see how a dog and a bird create a holiday feast from popcorn, toast and jelly beans (bonus points if any of these culinary masterworks have ever shared table space with yams and giblet gravy at your Thanksgiving dinner).

By the time Guaraldi penned this music, he was an established jazz pianist who brought West Coast cool to the genre with hits like "Cast Your Fate to the Wind." He was also firmly entrenched in Peanuts lore. The Thanksgiving special was the tenth featuring Charles Schulz's beloved characters and Guaraldi had scored them all, beginning with the iconic music from 1965's A Charlie Brown Christmas.
"Thanksgiving Theme" is one of two standouts from the 1973 special, the other being "Little Birdie," which features Guaraldi's rarely heard but extravagantly cool vocals. No vocals in "Thanksgiving Theme" to force upon listeners images of holiday bliss. You get to create your own mood from the texture of the music. It's the sound of stretching freshly washed sheets over the mattress in the guest bedroom just in time for holiday company. It's the sound of the basting brush across the bird's back, or the smell of freshly baked dinner rolls or taste-testing the stuffing. You can practically see the autumn leaves falling to the trinkle-tinkle of Guaraldi's playing. It's a song that stirs all the senses at once, a composition that's up to the task of the sensory overload that is Thanksgiving.
If you've somehow missed A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and have never heard the "Thanksgiving Theme," tune in tonight to celebrate the special's 45th anniversary. Then, keep the music on repeat throughout your day tomorrow and see if it doesn't fit the mood of your every move. When you head out to shop Friday morning, there will be plenty of Christmas music filling the airwaves. You need only this song to properly soundtrack this week's big day. Happy Thanksgiving.

The Flying Dutchman becomes the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The project by Sebeus narrowly sneaks into the Third 2014 Review Stage with the deadline only three days away.
The Flying Dutchman is based on Davy Jones' famous cursed ship which was featured in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest and At World's End. Some details inside the ship include the Captain's quarters with an organ.
The project is part of the last two that have reached the Review Stage which have been holdovers from LEGO CUUSOO. It now joins the Avengers Helicarrier, the Labyrinth Marble Maze, the F7A, The Goonies 30th Anniversary Inferno, The Natural History Museum, Lord of the Rings Set: Minas Tirith, Jurassic Park, and Piano as part of the lineup that is qualified for the Third 2014 Review Stage.

U.S. Supreme Court Validates Class Action Waivers in Employee Arbitration Agreements
The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that an employer may include a class action waiver in arbitration agreements with its employees. Thus, an employer may validly require that an employee arbitrate disputes on an individual basis, and not as part of a class or collective action.
Some employers require employees to sign arbitration agreements as a condition of employment. These agreements dictate that covered claims by the employee against the employer would be decided in private arbitration, not in court. In some cases, employers have gone further by including a waiver of class action proceedings in the arbitration agreement. This means that the employee does not give up the right to bring a claim against the employer, but may bring that claim only on behalf of himself or herself. The arbitration claim could not proceed as a class action.
The Supreme Court decision resolves a split in authority that has vexed employers for several years. Beginning in 2012, the National Labor Relations Board ("NLRB") has consistently ruled that class action waivers violate the National Labor Relations Act ("NLRA"), arguing that they deprive employees of the right to act collectively. This right applies to both union and non-union employees, so individuals seeking to avoid the class action waiver provision of an arbitration agreement would challenge the validity of that waiver in court or in unfair labor practice filings with the NLRB.
Virtually all federal courts that initially addressed this issue rejected the NLRB argument and upheld the class action waiver. (The first federal Court of Appeals decision rejecting the NLRB argument was a case in the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals in which the employer was represented by Lathrop Gage.) This created a morass of litigation for employers where the NLRB would strike down the class waiver, requiring the employer to sue in federal court to have the NLRB order overturned. More recently, however, three federal Courts of Appeal sided with the NLRB, creating a split of authority and setting up the issue for ultimate decision by the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court decision resolved the split, finding that class action waivers are valid and enforceable.
The Supreme Court's pronouncement will bring some certainty to this issue and eliminate expensive litigation over the enforceability of a class action waiver. An employer still must carefully consider whether an arbitration agreement, with or without a class action waiver, is advisable in its circumstances, and also be aware of other potential challenges to the agreement such as lack of consideration or unconscionability. These are issues which commonly arise when an employee attempts to avoid complying with an arbitration agreement, but are beyond the scope of the Supreme Court's decision.

Assume that you paste a range of cells as formulas into a merged cell in Microsoft Excel 2000, in Excel 2002, in Excel 2003, in Excel 2007, or in Excel 2010. In this scenario, the paste may apply the formula to each underlying cell of the merged cell, if the source range is not also a merged cell of the same size. Excel then calculates the result by using all the formulas in the underlying cells of the merged cell. This is expected. However, because you only see one of the component cells of the merged cell, the calculation result might differ from the result that you expect. Additionally, the results of certain aggregation functions, such as the Sum aggregation, as displayed in the status bar do not match the expected results based on the visible data.
This problem occurs because only the data that appears in the upper-left cell of the copied cells is visible in the merged cell.
To work around this problem, use one of the following methods:
- Use the Paste feature to paste the data.
- Unmerge the cell before you paste the formulas of the copied data. Then, merge the cells.
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
More Information
Steps to reproduce the problem
- Create a new workbook in Office Excel 2007.
- Right-click the status bar, and then select the Sum aggregation.
- Enter 5 in the A1 cell and in the D2 cell.
- In the A3 cell, type =SUM(A2,B2,C2,D2).
- Select the A2, B2 and C2 cells.
- On the Home tab, click Merge & Center.
- Right-click the A1 cell, and then click Copy.
- Right-click the merged cell, and then click Paste Special.
- In the Paste Special dialog box, click Formulas, and then click OK.

Both cards are lovely!!
I love all the texture from the corrugated paper on the first one – topped with that satiny bow and perfect stitching, and the pop of green on the second. Well done!
Welcome to CASE Study – so glad you could join us this week with a stunning card showing great texture 🙂 As a girl who loves everything green; your Play Date Cafe card is also fab!
I love your cards! You are a master of CAS!! Such simple perfection! Thanks for playing along at The Play Date Cafe!

Nexion, the full-service host agency, reports that its new Nexion Town social networking community program saw 15 percent of its 2,100 plus members complete profiles during the first week of its launch.
The Nexion Town program targets the leisure travel sector served by Nexion member agents and links agents to agents. Incentives for using Nexion Town include credits, or 'karma points' for agent's participation.
"Most Nexion agents are home-based, independent travel professionals who rely on other members the way an agent in a brick-and-mortar agency may rely on the agent at the next desk," said Jackie Friedman, Nexion general manager. "Nexion Town makes it easy for them to tap into the expertise of other agents, and the Nexion staff so that they can effectively sell the right product to their customers."
Nexion Town is a pilot program using the same platform that powers cubeless, Sabre's recently announced enterprise platform. Nexion Town takes networking between Nexion members to the next level. It increases collaboration among agents by helping them increase their knowledge base through sharing expertise with others in the community, Nexion says.<
The net result is to save agents time and money typically spent performing research. The program is included in Nexion's membership offering and is a key component of the host agency's commitment to helping agents improve operations.
Nexion Town gives agents the capability to create a profile that captures their unique travel experiences, job skills, destination expertise, areas of specialization, industry certifications and personal information, and upload photos. Agents can perform searches for other agents and network with them to share marketing, sales and travel knowledge. Agents can even take the networks they have built online to their local community and form local networking chapters. For information: www.nexion.com (GD)

This summer, get ready to drink like it's 1699!
Since craft cocktail culture trades in reviving classic recipes, it's no longer terribly surprising to see a throwback drink making a comeback. Most of the drinks we hear about, though, are boozy concoctions from the Victorian, Prohibition or mid-century eras. Shrubs, on the other hand, go back to colonial times and are non-alcoholic since the base for these fruit elixirs is vinegar.
In a way, shrubs are fruit pickles, but in syrup form. Back in the day before year-round produce, people made the most of seasonal fruit (especially berries) by preserving their flavour with sugar and vinegar. Unlike most fruit preserves, however, with shrubs the solid fruit is strained.
"Drinking-Vinegar" might not sound particularly appetizing but, in small doses, it's actually delicious — especially to people with an acidic palate. Bartenders often use shrubs in cocktails instead of citrus, since they add a sweet-tart dimension to a drink. The vinegar and sugar balance each other out nicely.
But wait, there's more. Shrubs liven up still or soda water, and can be used in marinades, salad dressings and desserts. And since it's prime time for seasonal Ontario produce, now is the perfect time to get started on shrubs with local apricots, berries, watermelon, tomatoes, celery, ginger or even hot peppers.
It's probably easiest to work up to savoury shrubs and start off with a berry shrub like this one, adapted from Michael Dietsch's "Shrubs: An Old-Fashioned Drink for Modern Times," published four years ago and still the definitive authority on shrubs.
Blackberry-Raspberry Shrub
¾ cup sugar
¾ cup red wine vinegar
1 cup fresh Ontario blackberries
1 cup fresh Ontario raspberries
Combine berries and sugar in a bowl, cover and refrigerate for a day. Strain through a mesh strainer to remove solids. Mix berry syrup with vinegar. Bottle and store in the refrigerator for a week and then start using. The Blackberry-Raspberry Shrub has a lot of applications but, to me, the most obvious is to use a half-ounce of it in a gin and soda or gin-tonic.
Not all shrub recipes follow this exact formula, which is "cold shrubbing." Many, if not most recipes online use heat instead, which is faster. Essentially, you slowly heat up fruit with water and sugar until the sugar is dissolved, the same way you would with a simple syrup. (The ratio commonly prescribed for "hot shrubbing" is different: one part fruit, one part sugar and one part water.) Cool, mix in with vinegar and bottle.
After experimenting with hundreds of shrub recipes, Dietsch determined that cold shrubs tasted brighter and fresher. Not all shrub recipes use red wine vinegar, either. Many call for apple cider vinegar or balsamic. I personally like playing around with rice vinegar.
If you want to get really into shrubs this summer, Dietsch's book is invaluable since it has specific recipes for sweet, sour and savoury shrubs, as well as 30 or so recipes for cocktails (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic) so that you can drink like a colonial.
An even faster way to get shrubs is to buy them. A range of flavours can be found at The Crafty Bartender or the Cocktail Emporium , or directly from one of two GTA companies that make them, False Ox or Manning Canning.

Considering the popular accounts on the platform, there are profiles that have over 20 million followers! It is some serious number of people following you, surely enough to create an impact. Therefore, you might be interested in knowing about how to Buy TikTok Fans and how to Buy TikTok Hearts. Well, there are different methods of doing it and here we are going to discuss the common ones.
In order to get more tiktok fans and hearts, there are following things that can be done.
You can initiate a like for like method which is essentially about people liking your content and, in return, you go to their profile and like their videos and photos. It is one of the easiest ways to Buy TikTok Hearts and you can obtain a decent number of likes from it. Not only you can list it on your profile and state it in your content but one can also take a look at other individuals that have similar indications on their profiles so that you can obtain a decent amount of hearts for your pics and videos.
Similar to the like for like, the follow for follow means that you follow the person i.e. become fan of the one who has followed you. So, your content will reach to the profile of that individual while his content will come in your feed. It is a tactic that many individuals adopt in order to get their profiles to grow. There are a lot of people who adopt this method and hunting for the musical.ly tiktok users who can follow for follow, you will be surprised to see the amount of accounts that provide you this opportunity.
Another way of increasing your reach and visibility in the platform which helps in acquiring both likes and follows is the comment for comment. It is also same as the method is for the above two as you have to comment on the content of the individual who has commented on your image or video. So, you are being an active user of tiktok musical.ly who comments on the profiles and get the reward in return in the form of comments, likes, and fans. It gives a boost to your visibility and popularity and more and more people get engaged with your content.
One of the biggest reasons why people do the duets is because they are looking to access the audience of each other. If you do a duet with a friend, you get to have access to their audience and present your content in front of them. As a result, if they find your content of interest or it appears to be in a category that they love, they would certainly come to your profile. Therefore, they will watch more of your videos and pictures, liking and commenting on it, and becoming your permanent followers. However, it certainly depends on the individual with whom you do the duet because this directly impacts the number of people you are able to reach.
If you have a strong presence on other networks, for instance on facebook and Instagram, you can simply share your content on these platforms too. Whatever you are posting on musical.ly, you can just take a snapshot and put it on your facebook account, page, groups, Instagram account, and other platforms, giving people an insight to stuff you put up and asking them to watch it. This certainly helps in increasing the reach of your content as more and more people would come across your video and even if a bunch of people see it through other platforms, this still is a success for you.
There are a number of ways you will find when you search for how to Buy TikTok Followers and how to Buy TikTok Likes. While the above are all related to your own efforts and work, the mobile apps are there to help you out. These are computer based programs that will take your profile and start working according to the code listed at backend. They would process your profile and content, assuring that it reaches more and more people and gets the hearts and fans you deserve. However, it does depend on the app you use because not all of them are authentic. In fact, more of them are nothing but a hoax.
There are a lot of online platforms that provide you a chance to get more and more tiktok musical.ly followers and reaches. However, some of them are premium and ask you for a few bucks in return of their services. The amount you are required to pay is directly associated to the number of fans or hearts you are looking to receive. Just be sure that you are not going to some fake person who would run away with the money you are giving, not providing you the desired results and wasting your time as well as money.
So, these are some common ways when it comes to what to do to Buy TikTok Followers and how you can Buy TikTok Likes. Be sure to do as many of these as possible because it really helps your account in growing which would assist you in becoming an influencer with the help of a social platform that can be turned into both awareness creating and money making.

At 4.4 percent, Mzuzu is the fastest growing city in the country.
In fact, its boundaries have been extended to Dunduzu Roadblock on its northern margins and plans are underway to relocate its main bus depot and market to the virgin land on the city's northern margins where government plans to build Mzimba North District Hospital.
For residents of Ekwendeni Trading Centre, almost 20km from Mzuzu, this is good news as the city is edging closer.
They expect the two commercial hubs to merge in less than 10 years.
However, fears are deepening that the unregulated, expansive trading centre may deteriorate into an irredeemable slum when they merge.
No growth plan
According to Mzimba district Commissioner Thomas Chirwa, Ekwendeni, like the rest of the districts, does not have an urban structure development plan to regulate future developments.
"This has led to haphazard development and emergence of slums," he says. "The problem is that there is no paperwork to guide the local people. Chiefs allocate land haphazardly and development is neither regulated nor orderly."
This is the problem faced by many district councils, with Mponela in Dowa, Thondwe in Zomba and Bvumbwe near Blantyre growing into potential slums.
M'mbelwa District Council has since engaged physical planners to develop the plan for Mzimba Boma and emerging trading centres, says Chirwa.
"Our wish is that the Boma and all trading centres should be planned areas," he explains.
However, only Jenda Trading Centre has an urban development plan—thanks to the Rural Growth Centre Project funded by the African Development Bank.
Promising trading centres, especially Ekwendeni, Enukweni, Edingeni and Embangweni will have similar plans when consultants complete the plan for Mzimba Boma.
"We want people to construct houses and structures following the urban structure plan of their area although the land will remain customary," he explained.
He reckons the land will remain customary after the zoning and mapping although chiefs will be told to stop allocating land anyhow to ensure buildings are constructed in designated places only.
The plan will include space for future sewer lines, water pipelines and roads.
Luchenza trunting
When former president Bingu wa Mutharika declared Luchenza a municipality in April 2012, he wanted the growth of the trading centre in Thyolo to be as regulated.
In his mind, the fallen leader wanted Luchenza to become modern city – bigger, busier and tidier.
Luchenza is the commercial hub of a south-western strip which plays home to vast tea fields, Malawi University of Science and Technology (Must) and Mount Mulanje, the second-largest tourism attraction in the country.
Five years on, Luchenza, declared a town on February 1 1987 when it had 8 842 people, remains a stunted town dominated by metallic silos built in 2009 and ancient shops left by Asian businesspeople banished to cities and towns at the height of founding president Hastings Kamuzu Banda's autocratic rule.
The municipality is silently being reduced to a slum like any other as over 30 000 residents scramble for land and build homes without following its urban plan.
This waters down the joy Fyson Mangazi, 80, had when Bingu unveiled his dream to turn Luchenza into a world-class city.
As great expectations denatures into frustrations and a long wait, the octogenarian, who runs a shop near Luchenza Bus Depot, asks: When will the flourishing city take shape?
"We aren't reaping fruits of the new status yet. We are paying high ground rates, but companies are not investing here. There are no jobs, limited business opportunities and the town is growing like a village," he says.
The municipality between Mulanje and Thyolo is showing no signs of growth—save for a bus depot under construction.
Near the construction site, Sambagalu and Lolo settlements are quickly deteriorating into slums contrary to Luchenza Municipal Council's bylaws and proposals to transform Luchenza into a modern city.
But the council's director of administration Anthony Mapungwe remains optimistic that Bingu's dream will come true by 2023.
The council is vying to extend the municipality boundaries to Mangunda Trading Centre near Thyolo and Musisi close to Mulanje.
But Namadzi, Namisanga, Sambagalu and other populous settlements are growing out of hand—albeit with no running water in sight.
"We are updating our urban structure plan. Once it is approved, no more squatting. Low density residential areas will be around Namadzi and Namisanga, the north-western part of Luchenza, while high density will be Sambagalu and Lolo area, one the western side," says Mapungwe.
The reforms are moving at a slow pace, he says.
"We are understaffed. Besides, we don't collect much revenue and we are underfunded," he says.
Future challenge
At stake is the council's strategy to make Luchenza an "orderly, developed and self-reliant" business destination.
To reverse the trend, the municipal authorities are doing land banking by allocating some plots for future use before squatters encroach it. However, the rise of illegal settlement mirrors scrambles for land amid rapid population growth and urbanisation.
Two years ago, the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development released a Malawi Habitat Report which named urbanisation among future challenges and issues for a new urban agenda.
The researchers warn: "It is likely that informal settlements and poor urban infrastructure provision will only worsen if sufficient measures are not taken to prioritise urban development issues in the face of continued rapid urbanisation."

OpenIDEO has launched a new challenge to push the boundaries of sustainable design and material and chemical innovation to solve a prevalent global waste issue. The NextGen Cup Challenge asks innovators, suppliers, designers, and problem-solvers to reinvent the fiber cup system.
Solutions entered into the Challenge must be recoverable and address the fiber-based hot and cold cup; however, ideas may also include cup lids, sleeves, straws, liner innovations, and/or consider reuse and alternative delivery systems. Ideas may also consider hot and cold cups separately.
Up to six top ideas will have the opportunity to enter into a business accelerator program following the challenge. The deadline for submissions is November 16, 2018.
The fiber cup is everywhere. In 2016, 250 billion were distributed globally, and it's estimated that number will increase to 266 billion by 2022. While convenient for enjoying a hot coffee or cold beverage on the go, too many fiber cups end up in landfills, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and wasting valuable resources.
There are two core issues with fiber cups: how they're made and how the materials they're made of are valued. Most fiber cups have a plastic liner to prevent leaks. The fiber and plastic are recyclable once separated, but limitations and inconsistencies in recycling infrastructure around the world mean that in most markets these materials aren't easily recovered. While recycled fiber and plastic are valuable, what's currently recoverable from cups doesn't sell for much, so there's no strong incentive for recyclers to recover the materials.
The foodservice industry has been working toward a more sustainable cup for many years, but have yet to find a solution that addresses the structural and commercial systems that produce, collect and recover our cups, while also meeting industry standards.
We need a new solution.
The NextGen Cup Challenge aims to push the boundaries of sustainable design and material and chemical innovation to solve a prevalent global waste issue. We are calling on innovators, suppliers, designers, and problem-solvers to join the Challenge and reinvent the fiber cup system.
Let's get started!
The Challenge
The goal of the Challenge is to identify and commercialize existing and new cup solutions designed to be recoverable at their highest material value. We are seeking solutions that will accommodate the infrastructure of different global regions and, when recycled or composted, produce quality materials that carry high economic value in recovery markets around the world.
Solutions must be recoverable and address the fiber-based hot and cold cup; however, ideas may also include cup lids, sleeves, straws, liners, and/or consider reuse and alternative delivery systems. Ideas may also consider hot and cold cups separately.
Materials used in solutions should aim to be ethically and sustainably sourced, contain recycled content, and consider how the disposal of this product will be accessible to differing recycling and composting infrastructures around the world. Any cup designs developed through this Challenge must meet or exceed foodservice industry health, safety, and environmental performance standards.
Please review our Additional Resources to help you get started.
Designing a sustainable fiber cup that's accessible to the entire food-service industry requires cross-sector collaboration from designers, entrepreneurs, suppliers, scientists, seasoned experts and more. The NextGen Cup Challenge is here to help make this happen.
Throughout the Challenge, participants will be supported with:
- Access to technical and material information to support the material selection and testing process.
- Toolkits outlining research, prototyping, and product design processes to support the innovation journey.
- Access to experts to source knowledge from leading minds within the circular design, retail, waste, and recycling industries.
- One-on-one mentor sessions. Up to 30 solution teams that move into the Refinement Phase of the Challenge will be paired with industry expert mentors for guidance and support throughout the prototyping process.
- New connections and the opportunity to meet co-creators while growing your network via the OpenIDEO platform and Circular community.
The NextGen Cup Challenge is an open innovation initiative seeking to identify and commercialize existing and future solutions for the single-use, hot and cold fiber cup. The Challenge is the first part of a multi-year, multi-industry global consortium that aims to accelerate the design, commercialization, and recovery of packaging alternatives.
Learn more about NextGen Consortium.
What Happens to My Idea?
NextGen Consortium members including Starbucks, McDonald's, and Closed Loop Partners' Center for the Circular Economy, commit to advancing the identification, acceleration, and commercialization of new cup solutions.
As a participant in the Challenge, you will retain intellectual property ownership of all your Challenge submission ideas. There is no transfer of intellectual property rights to any third party as a condition of participating in the Challenge. Please review our full Terms & Conditions before submitting a concept.
Please do not submit confidential information as part of your application to the NextGen Cup Challenge.
- Early Generation Award: Early stage concepts will be eligible to receive funding of up to $25k.
- Middle Generation Award: Mid stage concepts will be eligible to receive funding of up to $100k.
- Next Generation Award: Later stage concepts will be eligible to receive funding of up to $200k.
Top Ideas will receive funding, with up to six of the most promising early- and growth-stage winners also receiving the option to advance to a business accelerator program to receive further assistance in scaling and commercializing their solutions. These solutions will receive exceptional foodservice and recovery-system industry access to test, pilot, and enhance their solution through partnerships, with the potential for capital investment in the accelerator and licensing through Consortium members. Large companies who do not participate in the business accelerator program will also have access to testing and piloting opportunities.
The cup supplier community will play a key role in activating the promising solutions identified by the Challenge. The Consortium will engage this expertise throughout the accelerator, testing and piloting phases to identify opportunities for knowledge-sharing and collaboration with Challenge participants.
Startups invited to advance to the business accelerator program, who choose to participate, will permit Closed Loop Partners (the Consortium managing partner) the option to enter an equity share agreement.
Winners who are not eligible or interested in participating in the business accelerator will still have access to a customized business development associate to help advance their solution.
Evaluation Criteria
Solutions entered into the Challenge must be recoverable and address the fiber-based hot and cold cup; however, ideas may also include cup lids, sleeves, straws, liner innovations, and/or consider reuse and alternative delivery systems. Ideas may also consider hot and cold cups separately.
When devising your concept, we encourage you to ask yourself: How might this solution make life better for users, businesses, and the world?
Submissions will be evaluated according to the following criteria:
- Cup + Cup System: Solutions will innovate for the hot and cold fiber cup, which can include liners and the whole cup system with a lid, straw, and sleeve. Reuse and alternative delivery systems are also welcome.
- Performance: Solutions must meet or exceed the industry's current health, safety, and environmental performance standards pertaining to cups. Review our Additional Resources to help you get started,
- Ecosystem: Solutions should seek to be relevant across the entire foodservice industry, rather than exclusive to one product or business type.
- Recoverable: Solutions seek to enable the recovery of raw materials at their highest possible value across multiple global infrastructures (e.g. recycling, composting).
- Recycled Content: Solutions should seek to include recycled material and minimize virgin material and resource use along the entire development chain.
- Sourcing: The material content of solutions should be sustainably (including renewable) and ethically sourced (including both virgin and recaptured materials).
- Adaptable: Solutions will be adaptable—designed to be commercially viable in the near-term, while also considering rapidly changing recovery infrastructure and technology in regions around the world.
- Global: Solutions will consider the global marketplace. Solutions can be designed for implementation in priority markets of North America, Europe, and Asia, with a secondary focus on South America and Africa, OR consider a local approach to solve regional issues with the to-go cup.
- Experience: The solution should seek to improve the cup experience for customers, businesses, and the world at large.

You will be invoiced for your booked consultation after our initial call. After the consultation we will discuss what follow up steps and payments will look like based on the project scope. Preferred payment is through e-transfer.
- What is the typical timeframe for projects?
I will typically try to book our phone call shortly after receiving the request online or by email. If you'd like to proceed with an in-home consultation, these are booked within 2 weeks of the call. Timeframes for any plans or services to follow will be discussed at the consultation.
- I don't live in the greater Waterloo Region, will you travel to my house?
Our consultation fee is based on homes in the greater Waterloo Region. Additional travel fees may be added for homes outside this radius. Comprehensive design plans are available to be sent online and are a great choice for homeowners a
- Does project size matter for pricing?
Our initial consultation is a flat fee that includes up to 2 hours in your home. This time can include looking at just one space or your whole home if you prefer. Pricing for design or services to follow will be determined by project size and scope.
- Do you use templates or reuse designs for clients?
I know many designers that are embarking on e-design will use templates or reuse designs for various clients to save them time and money. This is something I don't do, as I believe every space and family is unique and their personal solution should reflect such.

Actress Victoria Lebene has revealed that she never had sex with veteran actor, Kofi Adjorlolo, during their one-and-half-year relationship.
She told KOD on the Zone that although Mr. Adjorlolo tried on several occasions to have sex with her, she never gave in.
"We never had sex though; because we were waiting for the marriage before that. I was really bent on that because I was looking forward for him to fulfill (marriage). He did ask me for sex but I always pushed him back because I wanted to wait."
The actress also disclosed that while dating the veteran actor, he did not provide everything for her, like people keep saying indicating that she had to hassle for all that she has.
"He didn't do much for me; like buying me a car or supporting me to buy a car. I took care of my own trips and took care of myself, I paid for my trips around the world through my hard work"
Lebene and Adjorlolo broke up early this year after father of the actress insisted his daughter should end her relationship with the 'old man' because they may be age mates.

|Eastern Weyr - Upper Bowl
|Uveline helps Vanielle haul tubers, and insists the girl claim her rank as an apprentice.
Sunset streaks the sky with colored streamers, the high clouds painted vivid reds, oranges and purples by the lowering sun. Light still falls in the bowl, but there is a diffuse, soft quality to it that suggests the light will fade quickly. Shadows have grown long, reaching toward the bowl center. Dinner is still in progress, but several early, or perhaps just fast, diners have departed the caverns to make use of the remaining light. Uveline is one of them, and she is standing there in the center of the bowl, looking into the sunset with a delighted expression upon her face. She hums softly, an simple but sweet melody, as she watches the lowering sun cast vivid colors across the sky.
Watching the sky, the sound of a voice makes Vanielle turn. "Pretty voice miss." she says as politely as she can. She's out for a stroll, hauling a sack of tubers and other root vegetables.
Smiling warmly, Uveline shifts her gaze from the sky to the laden girl. "Thank you. It's a pretty sky, too," she says, her voice soft but melodic. She blinks her eyes clear of the sun afterimage and tilts her head. "Would you like a hand?" she offers, stepping closer to the girl.
Vanielle nods. "Sure." shesays quickly. "Well met, thank you for helping me with this particular chore- you'd think after raising runners, tubber carrying would be easy pie, but.. .they're heavier than I expected. The name is Vanielle."
Uveline nods, crossing the rest of the distance and reaching to help heft one end of the sack. "Runners are a different kind of work. This is sheer, stationary weight, and all the worse for it," she says in reply. "I'm Uveline. Nice to meet you, Vanielle. Have you been here long? And, where are we taking these tubers - the kitchens, or the store rooms?"
Vanielle shakes her heads. "Actually I need to break this down into more managable size, so partly to the kitchens for the next few days- tubber salad! The rest in small containers to the store rooms, not that it'll last long."
Uveline nods and jerks her chin, indicating Vanielle should lead the way. "There are worse things than tuber salad. Like salted fish." Uveline makes a face before continuing, "And I imagine they will vanish into a number of things, like soups, stews, and other such dishes. You never know what is hiding in those."
Vanielle nods. "Yeah. But I think a good herd-beast, with tuber stew with lots of vegetables… is much taster than the water-stuff I had when I lived with the higher-up in the hold- they mashed it really fine- you could /taste it/ but it wasn't…. substance."
"That does sound pretty awful," Uveline agrees with a slight shudder. "What is the point in making it that thin? Were they just trying to flavor a soup?" She starts to shrug, but the load is a bit too awkward for her to finish the motion. "How long did you say you had been here, in the South?"
Vanielle pauses. "A few days, feels like less reaslly." she pauses a little slowly on though.
Uveline slows a heartbeat after Vanielle, nearly dropping the bag as she tries to stay balanced. "I know the feeling. I've been here for, oh, a while now, i guess, but it never seems like much time has passed," she says with a smile as she straightens herself out. "Where'd you come from?"
Vanielle smiles. "Up North. A Keroon-girl, though I've lived a bit at Harper Hall, I came home after a bit…"
"Did you now? Hmm, must have been while I was too busy to socialize much," Uveline muses. "Well, if you don't mind me asking, what brought you South? I came as part of the Hall's posted group, myself, or I would probably have never made it South."
Vanielle nods. " Umm I ahh.. came down because family seemed to have finagled things- but I am something of a drudge- but I work with runners too wherever there's something that needs running or moving."
Uveline chuckles, nodding. "Nothing ever turns out quite how we expect, hmm? Well, I imagine the headwoman would be willing to help you work your way up, if you are a solid worker and don't mess around," she says. "The stable could probably use a hand as more people make their way here."
Vanielle smiles. "Yeah. I want to breed, runners and try my hand.. sort of at breeding good intelligent, firelizards. You know like you do with firelizards?"
Uveline tilts her head slightly, frowning. "Well, no, I suppose I don't quite understand. Firelizards are just as intelligent as they are. Breeding doesn't have a thing to do with it. Training might make them more biddable, but firelizards are what they are."
Vanielle thinks on that. "I guess. I don't know. I thought they might be more like runners, but they're dragon-kin so they are different… indeed."
Uveline nods again. "As far as I know, they don't change much from the time they hatch to whenever they die. I think only the animals brought here when our forefathers came here are like that - improving with breeding. But maybe you can do it with firelizards. I don't think anyone has ever tried."
Vanielle thinks. " I suppose Flights even firelizard ones make it hard to breed them like runners."
"Somewhat. They aren't much like canines or runners, where you can limit their exposure to males when in heat," Uveline agrees. "It took tinkering with eggs to develop the dragons, after all. I imagine you'd have to do much the same to improve the firelizards themselves."
Vanielle thinks. "But does that mean we can.. I mean.. Landing is just west of here, but…"
Uveline lifts one shoulder in a half-shrug. "I don't know. You'd have to ask at Landing to find out. I've no idea what all is being done right now, and what we will be able to regain learning for," she points out.
Vanielle nods. "True. It'd be nice though.. to learn what they knew- the Ancients I mean… I mean, they seemed to have incediable stuff, but I wanna know what they're lives were like… I mean they were people, but… they seemed.. incontrol of their world in a way we aren't." she shakes her head. "I don't know."
Uveline shakes her head slightly. "They had more knowledge than we do, but they most certainly weren't in more control. If I understand what I've been taught about AIVAS, they actually were so little in control of their first world that they came here to have more control, and found themselves on a planet with a lot of things they couldn't control in the least."
Vanielle nods. "Yeah I remember those lessons. And yes.. I suppose so. But maybe they realized it coming here- they can't be in control… not in the least. They learned to flow… like water. It doesn't smash rocks, it wears the away little by little."
Uveline raises a brow at the younger girl. "You certainly seem to have listened to your lessons. That should serve you in good stead as you move forward. Why don't you apprentice into the Beastcraft if you are so interested in the animals of Pern?"
Vanielle smiles. "I am sort of. An apprentice, but I guess what ever happened to the bits— the information about it didn't get passed along with me. The order to go south came from my family, my parents are both Beastcrafters… and so am I. We run a runner holding in Keroon, breeding, training and what not."
"Didn't you bring your badge and knot, and a letter of introduction with you?" Uveline asks, puzzled. "If you lost them, it shouldn't be a problem to send out a request for confirmation from your family, or your Hall?"
Vanielle says, "My family said they'd sent them ahead. Who am I to question it.. I didn'tthink anything of it… and I don't mind working a little harder until I can find the right time to talk to the right people about this.""
Firmly, Uveline says, "You should bring this up to the headwoman. She can send a message out, and get it straight. You should be working where you are most useful, at your craft, rather than doing drudge work. There's no sense in not getting this fixed as soon as possible."
Vanielle says, "True," softly.
"Well, let me know if you need any help with that," Uveline says after a pause. "I'd hate to see you stuck doing the hauling and such any longer than necessary. You have good ideas, and I'd love to see you get a chance to explore them," she adds. "Shall we finish getting these tubers to the kitchens, then?"
Vanielle smiles. "Thanks," she says quickly walking off to play catch up with the people in charge.
Above the pair there is a loud trumpeting before a shadow passes over them. Zhiyth, lean and blue banks to come back towards them, his rider waving from beneath full gear. Dropping down a couple dragonlengths away he dips up at the last minute, sending a shower of dust up around himself. The figure on his back gives an affectionate pat on the neck before unhooking and sliding down his leg.
Vanielle watches as the dragon descends. She raises her head. "Heyla!" she calls loudly coughing though as the dust cloud rolls her way.
Uveline watches Vanielle move off and shrugs, shouldering the burden of the tuber sack herself. The journeywoman then continues moving across the bowl, but slows when the blue dragon, one which she is starting to become familiar with, passes overhead. She smiles when Atsya waves, calling out to her, "Hi, Atsya," and waving back, though the guesture rapidly turns to shading her eyes against blown dust.
Atsya runs her hand up Zhiyth's neck before giving him a good rub and a scratch, then pulls her helmet off and starts towards the harper. "Sorry about the dust," she calls out as she gets closer, the dragon, wings folded ambling along behind her. "We're do some rain soon, which should help. Are you carrying tubers?" she asks curiously.
Vanielle nods, and slows her pace turning around. "I was going to head to see the higher ups, to see how I can improve my chance of getting my original not back- A beastcrafter."
Uveline chuckles, as she nods, smiling warmly. "I imagine it will. Ah, yes, I am." She balances the sack with a shrug as Vanielle turns back. "The lass has other tasks to attend to, so I thought I'd take care of this. Her introduction papers were lost on her way over, and she's working as a drudge rather than a crafter," Uveline explains.
Atsya smiles at Vanielle, taking a quick moment to recognize in full light the girl she met the day before. "That is wonderful," her voice much closer now to its usual quieter volume, "or quite silly, depending on which way you look at it. As if you'd pretend something like that." She frowns a little as she looks back and forth between the pair. "If it would help I could run to the crafthall sometime and try to get another copy for you."
Vanielle nods. "That'd help a lot Atsya…"
Uveline nods to Atsya, saying softly, "That's much what I told Vanielle - there are plenty of ways to get her back on track." Glancing at the slowly darkening sky Uveline sighs. "Well, I need to be getting to a meeting, so if you'll both excuse me, I'll take this on over to the kitchens and what not. Atsya, Zhiyth, good to see you both. Vanielle, good luck with getting that all cleared up." And she moves off toward the tunnel to the kitchens.
Atsya waves, and the giant head above her seems to nod at the departing harper before lowering to rest against his rider's shoulder. She laugh and looks back before beginning to scratch. "Would we need to go the Beastcraft hall, or to where you were apprenticed?"
To be completed by Atsya!

We flew out to Rarotongo and stayed at the Edge Water resort. However, we had a surprise excursion to Aitutaki.
We flew with Air Ratotonga leaving Rarotonga at 0800 on a small Saab turbo prop.
After flying for 40 minutes we started our decent into Aitutaki. We flew over the lagoon and approached the island from the north, landing on an air strip built by the Americans in 1942 during World War 2.
The airport at Aitutaki is a little bit basic (an under statement!) but the welcome was very warm.A man playing in his ucayali welcomed our arrival to the island - Pacific Islanders know how to make people feel very welcome!
Our tour host for the day was a man called Phil who was originally from the island and was a mind of information - he seemed to know most of the island inhabitants.
1900 people live on the island. Power is provided between 0600 and 2359 by two diesel generators. The container ship comes once a month, but if it is too rough it doesn't stop and steams onto Auckland.
The bus took us to the main town and we had chance to walk around.
After a short time we joined our boat and cruised around the lagoon for the rest of the day.
The TV series Shipwreaked and Survivor is filmed in Aitutiki and we payed a visit to 'Sharky Island'. We went snorkling and enjoyed a tuna lunch. After which we sailed to One Foot island.
One island has no inhabitants but it has a post office (UK eat your heart out!) so it was a great opportunity to sit under a palm tree and write my post cards while drinking a cool beer.
Alas, it was time to go home so we went back on the boat, steamed back to Aitutiki and caught the flight back to Rarotonga.
I'll be going again ...... but next time I will take my wife, Yvonne!
How I miss Holme-on-Spalding Moor!
