soulsacrifice.fandom.com/wiki/Centaur?oldid=21296"Raila Odinga has started the journey to political self-destruction if he does not avoid the business of being sworn in as the president of the people. Isn’t Uhuru Kenyatta the president of the people after winning the rerun? Is what Odinga is contemplating feasible and possible?
Raila must know that the term ‘people’ is very ambiguous, relative and vague. Any more than one person is people. Raila must come up with scientific evidence to substantiate that his are people and Kenyatta’s aren’t.
Firstly, being sworn in as president is treason in a country that follows the rule of law. It also portrays Raila as a bankrupt politician. Secondly, can a country have two presidents at the same time? Thirdly, if Raila is sworn in, where is his army, state house and other instruments that make a person president?
In the neighbouring Tanzania, President John Magufuli won by 59 to 41, and there has never been any dialogue despite the opposition rejecting the results that gave Magufuli victory. Raila is lucky to have gone to the Supreme Court that nullified Kenyatta’s first win and led to a rerun. The Supreme Court did not find any merit in nullifying the election again. Raila should therefore abandon his swearing in project. His attempts to stop Kenyatta from being president have floundered. His call for boycotting some goods and services have been to no avail.
Raila has many options. He can retire and exit the political scene honorably. He can soldier on and seek presidency come 2022. He won’t be the first to do so. Next year, Zimbabwe’s current president, Emerson Mnangagwa, will be 76 years old, like Odinga will be in 2022. The former Senegalese president became president when he was 74. Raila can stop the business of running for president and support whomever he deems fit and believes in. He may also bury the hatchet and team up with Kenyatta in curing Kenya’s economic and socio-political ills. He could also pursue international politics and be used as a retired statesman to address global matters.
Raila does not need to shoot himself in the foot by tarnishing the legacy he built for many decades. He must abandon his counterproductive project of being sworn in as the president of the people. It is hogwash and doesn’t fit a person of his caliber. There is life out of state house.

The study, which looked specifically at physical activity in aging populations, examined over 3,500 men and women over the age of 65, and found that despite a commonly-held belief, it is never too late to start being active.
Gardening is as good for your body as it is for your mind: according to the researcher’s findings, the physical movements involved in gardening (lifting, bending, crouching, taking in fresh air) all help improve muscle mass in the elderly, which in turn prevents falls. Physical activity, meanwhile, may help prevent osteoporosis and bone thinning in women over 60.
Earth Easy is just one of several gardening and carpentry outfits that manufacture beautiful elevated planters. Raised beds are ideal for would-be gardeners suffering from back strain or simply those who don’t want to have to bend down to garden. Planter boxes typically offer around 8 square feet of gardening space, with convenient slots for drainage and a built-in storage shelf for pots and trowels.
MSM Powder is a supplement that has grown increasingly popular in Europe and in the wellness sphere of the United States. MSM, or Methylsulfonylmethane, has been shown to effectively combat osteoarthritis, which makes it an appealing supplement for the 65 and older crowd. MSM is high in bioavailable sulfur, which is one of the building blocks of healthy joints. As such, it is often taken as a supplement by people who experience knee or other joint pain, which can occur in gardeners who spend a lot of time squatting. We recommend researching whether or not MSM conflicts with any other medications in your current medical repertoire before adding a new supplement to the mix, but MSM works for us, and we think it can work for you. MSM doubles as a non-invasive anti-inflammatory– the fact that it helps stave off degenerative joint disease is just a bonus.
Uncommon goods’ gardeners tool seat allows gardeners to sit and rest while gardening with a supportive cushion. In addition to being a lightweight, waterproof chair, the seat also doubles as a stylish container for tools, and it looks way more elegant than many of the plastic-scooter alternatives. Those looking for a more “active” way to support their joints while gardening should read our article on How To Prevent Back Strain While Gardening, which has some useful insights on the proper way to bend and crouch to prevent body strain.
Foxgloves have long been a favorite gardening glove for members of the GC team. These durable (and fashionable) gloves are thin, long-lasting, and sewn with SPF-blocking material that keeps sun-aged hands looking young.
A lifeguard-style hat is the safest, surest way to prevent sunburn on the face and upper appendages when out in a sunny garden. The sun is strongest between the hours of 10 AM and 2 PM, so it is recommended that the elderly and other populations vulnerable to heat stroke avoid gardening during those maximum hours of sunlight. And as usual: remember to stay hydrated and wear sunscreen.

Another display of transphobia has occured, this time in Appleton Wisconsin demonstrating how vital it is to have a non-discrimination law which protects gender variance.
"An Appleton transgendered woman filed a lawsuit against a College Avenue club, after she says she was denied entrance due to her gender identity. The complaint says Sierra Broussard, wasn't allowed admittance because "The employee or owner of Park Central then suggested to Sierra, while in a public forum, that she go to another club, one that caters to "her kind" (Womanist Musing).

In a resolution to the legislature, the board cited the success of Sitka’s Fish to Schools program as justification for extending a similar statewide program beyond one year.
Nutritional Alaskan Food for Schools was introduced by Anchorage Republican Bill Stoltze in 2012, and piloted last year.
This year the governor has included funding of $3-million dollars for the program — but only for one year. All schools in Alaska will receive funding from the program, based on student population.
Sitka’s Fish to Schools program was conceived during the Sitka Health Summit in the fall of 2010, and launched the following spring.
School board president Lon Garrison considers it to be one of the pioneering efforts in the state.
“I have to say that Sitka is one of the communities that’s really leading the way with our Fish to Schools program, and a lot of communities are looking at that.”
The Sitka district and Mt. Edgecumbe High School each received about $39,000 in the pilot program. The emphasis in Sitka has been on seafood, though Mt. Edgecumbe used some of its funding to purchase potatoes from Gustavus.
Tracy Gagnon manages Fish to School for the Sitka Conservation Society. She was pleased to hear of the board’s support. She says the bill is an economic driver for both agriculture and seafood in the state, ecologically sensible, and healthy. “It’s a win-win-win,” she says.
The school board’s vote was unanimous (Tonia Rioux and Cass Pook were absent). The resolution encourages the legislature to develop multi-year funding for Nutritional Alaska Food for Schools.
