[Verse 1]
Hhhmm
Kama Unanipenda sana
Umaarufu weka Mbali
Na ile nyumba ni ya mama
Hivyo usiwaze Madale
Isiwe kesho madrama
Napigiwa simu na Tale
Hadi Insta natukanwa
Umeshaanzisha kwale

Mwepesi kupenda ila ngumu kusahau

Moyo wangu
Nateseka sana nayempenda akinidharau

Moyo wangu
Hodari wa kugawa wa kunipa sina

Moyo wangu
Ndio maana nasisitiza usije na wewe


[Chorus]
Baila Baila Baila

Storm Brian

Yesterday Storm Brian was officially named by the Met Office as a weather bomb formed in the Atlantic Ocean.
A double dip in low pressure has brought a yellow weather warning of strong gale-force winds and the predications of heavy rain.
Winds will begin to pick up over Ireland from early on Saturday morning as it sweeps in from the ocean.
The Met Office said: "A spell of strong southwesterly winds is expected. Some coastal routes and communities are likely to be affected by large waves, with potential for flooding of properties.
"Some transport disruption is likely across the warning area, with delays to road, rail, air and ferry transport. Short term loss of power and other services is also possible
It warned some coastal areas in the UK could be affected by large waves, with the potential for flooding.
Some transport disruption was "likely", with delays to road, rail, air and ferry transport all possible, the warning added. Short term loss of power and other services is also possible, it said.
The Met Office's chief forecaster Dan Suri said the worst of the storm was likely to be felt in Ireland.
"At the moment, we don't expect the same level of impacts for the UK," he said.
"Gusts exceeding 50mph are expected widely within the warning area, with gusts of around 70mph along exposed coastal areas. These are expected to coincide with high tides, leading to locally dangerous conditions in coastal parts."
The Met Office said it currently has no plans to issue an amber warning for any part of the UK, but the situation was "under continual review".
Met Éireann said there was a risk of coastal flooding in some areas of the Irish Republic.
Under storm naming guidelines, the Met Office and its partner agency Met Éireann name any storm with an amber - or orange - wind warning.
A storm - the tail end of Hurricane Ophelia which travelled across the Atlantic Ocean from the Azores - caused significant damage to the Republic of Ireland, Scotland and north Wales last week.
The Met Office and Met Éireann do not rename the remnants of storms that have moved across the Atlantic, if they have already been named.
On Monday, three people in Ireland died in the storm. Thousands of people were also left without water and power.

Diwali -Govardhan Puja 2017

This year Govardhan Puja, would be celebrated on 20th October 2017, the Puja is dedicated to the worship of Lord Krishna who came to the aid of his fellow villagers by lifting a mountain on his little finger and saving them from a thunderstorm.

Devotees create a hillock using cow dung, that symbolically refers to Govardhan, the mountain Krishna had lifted. The small hillock is adorned with flowers and devotees circumambulate the hillock and pray to Lord Govardhan, asking him to protect their families.

Diwali is a five-day festival and each day holds a special significance. The fourth day of the mega-festival, Govardhan Puja is marked. Also known as the ‘Annakoot Puja’, it is a Hindu festival when devotees pay obeisance to Lord Krishna on this day. Usually celebrated a day after Deepavali, it is commemorated as the day when Lord Krishna defeated God Indra. This year the festival falls on October 20.
According to Hindu mythology, it is believed that Lord Krishna protected the people of Braj from heavy and dangerous rainfall by lifting the huge Govardhan hill with his finger.
According to Bhagavad Puran, the people of Braj (the adjoining areas between Mathura and Vrindavan) used to worship Indra, the god of rain and storm, as well as the king of all gods during the autumn season, thanking him for the bountiful rains and good harvest. However, Krishna thought that instead of thanking a distant God, they should thank the Mount Govardhan that stood in the middle of the habitation. Irked by people praying Govardhan, Indra decided to punish the locals with heavy torrential rain, it then when Krishna lifted the mountain to provide shelter and protection to the people. After much trial and tribulation, Indra accepted that he could not harm the villagers and realised that he had let his ego dictate his actions, thus, conceding defeat.
Govardhan Puja Vidhi
When Krishna urged people to thank Mount Govardhan for his offerings, he asked people to create a mountainous offering of food and delicacies for a ‘giri yagna’. It is said that Krishna himself, then assumed the form of a mountain himself and accepted the villagers’ offerings.
Thus, on this special day, people prepare elaborate vegetarian meals of 56 or 108 different kinds of dishes made with wheat, rice, gram flour. Delicious food using leafy vegetables, milk, pulses, and fruits are also cooked and offered to Lord Krishna on this day.
Also, people create a hillock using cow dung, that symbolically refers to Govardhan, the mountain Krishna had lifted. The small hillock is adorned with flowers and devotees circumambulate the hillock and pray to Lord Govardhan, asking him to protect their families.

Raiders wins

The Chiefs took the opening kickoff. They went to their star rookie running back up the middle on their first four plays before taking to the air for a 16-yard pass from Alex Smith to Demarcus Robinson to put them in Oakland territory. Another connection with Demetrius Harris put the Chiefs in field goal range. They would get no closer and open the game with Harrison Butkerconnecting on a 53-yard field goal to take a 3-0 lead.
The Raiders responded in a way they haven’t all season long. Carr went to Amari Cooper on the first play for 12 yards. Two plays later, Carr rolled right and threw for Jared Cook on the move for 24 yards. The next play, the Raiders went with some trickeration, going with the flea flicker. Marshawn got the ball, tossed it back to Carr who went up top to Amari Cooper for a 38-yard touchdown just over the left pylon.
The Chiefs would answer with a long drive culminating in a leaping touchdown grab by Travis Kelce from ten yards out.
The back and forth continued with the Raiders going on another drive which featured a one-handed grab by Cordarrelle Patterson to convert on third down. A few plays later, Amari Cooper got wide open against the zone, Carr saw him and put the ball in his hands. Coop turned on the jets, turned the corners and went 45 yards for his second touchdown of the game.
And that was just the first quarter.
Come the second quarter, a masterful punt by Marquette King was downed at the one-yard-line. Then the Chiefs went 99 yards in three plays to take a 17-14 lead. The touchdown came on when Chiefs’ speedster Tyreek Hill got behind David Amerson and Smith found him for a 64-yard score. Reggie Nelson was too late to help out.
Then shit got cray cray.
What began as the return of the Raiders high flying offense, descended into chaos just before halftime.

mckayla maroney sexually abused

Olympic gymnastics gold medalist McKayla Maroney says she was sexually assaulted by a USA gymnastics doctor and was sexually abused for several years starting at age 13.
Maroney shared her story on Twitter and posted under the hashtag #MeToo.
"I had a dream to go to the Olympics," she writes in a statement posted to Twitter, "and the things that I had to endure to get there, were unnecessary, and disgusting."
"Dr. Nassar told me that I was receiving 'medically necessary treatment that he had been performing on patients for over 30 years,' " she writes. "It started when I was 13 years old, at one of my first National Team training camps, in Texas, and it didn't end until I left the sport." She says the abuse continued in London during the 2012 games.
Maroney says the scariest night of her life happened when she was 15 years old, when the team traveled to Tokyo. She says Nassar gave her a sleeping pill to help her sleep on the flight, and when she awoke she was alone with him in his hotel room, "getting a 'treatment.' " She does not describe his specific actions.
"I thought I was going to die that night," she writes.
Maroney retired from gymnastics in 2016, at age 20. She sprang to fame with strong routines at the 2012 Olympics, and her look of dissatisfaction at her silver medal performance in the vault final gave rise to the "McKayla is not impressed" meme.
Her story of molestation by Nassar echoes the accounts of many others. More than 125 women have sued the former team doctor, alleging abuse.
Attorneys representing Nassar had no comment on Maroney's accusations.
"People should know that this is not just happening in Hollywood," Maroney said. "This is happening everywhere. Wherever there is a position of power, there seems to be potential for abuse. I had a dream to go to the Olympics, and the things that I had to endure to get there were unnecessary and disgusting."'
Maroney's full post can be read below:
"Everyone's words over the past few days have been so inspiring to me. I know how hard it is to speak publicly about something so horrible, and so personal, because it's happened to me too.
People should know that this is not just happening in Hollywood. This is happening everywhere. Wherever there is a position of power, there seems to be potential for abuse. I had a dream to go to the Olympics, and the things that I had to endure to get there, were unnecessary, and disgusting.
I was molested by Dr. Larry Nassar, the team doctor for the US Women's National Gymnastics Team, and Olympic Team. Dr. Nassar told me that I was receiving "medically necessary treatment that he had been performing on patients for over 30 years." It started when I was 13 years old, at one of my first National Team training camps, in Texas, and it didn’t end until I left the sport. It seemed whenever and wherever this man could find the chance, I was "treated." It happened in London before my team and I won the gold medal, and It happened before I won my Silver. For me, the scariest night of my life happened when I was 15 years old. I had flown all day and night with the team to get to Tokyo. He'd given me a sleeping pill for the flight, and the next thing I know, I was all alone with him in his hotel room getting a "treatment." I thought I was going to die that night.
The Olympics is something that brings people hope, and joy. It inspires people to fight for their dreams, because anything is possible with hard work and dedication. I remember watching the 2004 Olympics. I was 8 years old, and I told myself that one day I would wear that red, white and blue leotard, and compete for my country. Sure, from the outside looking in, It's an amazing story. I did it. I got there, but not without a price.
Things have to change...but how do we begin? I'm no expert but here are my thoughts;
One: Speaking out, and bringing awareness to the abuse that is happening.
Two: People, Institutions, Organizations, especially those in positions of power, etc. need to be held accountable for their inappropriate actions and behavior.
Three: Educate, and prevent, no matter the cost.
Four: Have zero tolerance for abusers and those who protect them.
Is it possible to put an end to this type of abuse? Is it possible for survivors to speak out, without putting careers, and dreams in jeopardy? I hope so. 
Our silence has given the wrong people power for too long, and it's time to take our power back.
And remember, it's never too late to speak up."


Gord Downie Dies

Gord Downie, singer of The Tragically Hip, died of complications from brain cancer Tuesday night at the age of 53. His death was announced in a statement from his family.
Born in Kingston, Ontario, Downie loved playing hockey and became a lifelong fan of the Boston Bruins, which was strengthened by his godfather, Harry Sinden, serving as the team's coach and general manager.
But he loved music and songwriting even more.
Formed in 1984, the Hip, as the band is commonly called, became one of Canada's premiere groups with hits such as "Wheat Kings," "Bobcaygeon" and "Ahead by a Century."

In the first week of January 2016, the Canadian singer-songwriter Gord Downie paid a visit to the Bathouse, the recording complex that his band, the Tragically Hip, owns in a small town outside Toronto. Rising early each morning, he put on a snowsuit and walked a short distance from the studio to the frozen shores of Lake Ontario, where he sat and hand-wrote lyrics in the cold.
About 10 days earlier, Mr. Downie had told friends that he had an aggressive, deadly form of brain cancer, which ultimately ended his life on Tuesday night at 53. Nearly six more months would pass before he shared the news of his illness with the public, in May 2016, followed by a short summer tour with the Hip, as the band is known, whose emotional finalewas watched by millions worldwide. But first, Mr. Downie wanted to make one more album.
“Gord knew this day was coming,” Mr. Downie’s family said in a statement Wednesday. “His response was to spend this precious time as he always had — making music, making memories and expressing deep gratitude to his family and friends for a life well lived, often sealing it with a kiss … on the lips.”
The solo album that Mr. Downie spent his final months working on — “Introduce Yerself,” due out Oct. 27 — is a strikingly intimate record of an artist processing the shock of his own mortality. In this sense, it stands alongside recent farewells like David Bowie’s “Blackstar” and Leonard Cohen’s “You Want It Darker,” both released just days or weeks before those artists’ deaths. But as with much of Mr. Downie’s finest work with the Hip, there’s a feeling of specificity that sets it apart: The lyrics he wrote for its 23 tracks aren’t metaphors or prayers but detailed love letters addressed to friends, family members, old flames and other key figures from his life.




Fotos De Santiago Maldonado Muerto

While the judicial case seems to be stagnating, the networks polarize all kinds of hypotheses about the young man's whereabouts. A month after his whereabouts, the mystery about where and how Santiago Maldonado is is on the way to becoming a debate increasingly polarized and defined by political interests. While Justice is leaning towards the hypothesis of a forced disappearance at the hands of National Gendarmerie troops, some say that the case is used by opposition sectors to change the outlook before the October general election.
"Where is Santiago Maldonado?". That question is what a multitude held yesterday in marches in the main cities of the country and, without real advances on the part of the researchers, seems to have no answers.
False data. In the last hours, social networks echoed a photograph that circulated anonymously , with the intention of strengthening one of hypotheses: Maldonado could have died of a stab during a fight with a staller in a camp. According to this line of thought, her body would have been hidden to "put a dead body" on the national government and, in a timely manner, on Security Minister Patricia Bullrich, who from the beginning of the case openly expressed her impression that the Gendarmerie had not state involved in the disappearance of the craftsman.
"He appeared dead in Esquel with a knife by Benetton's henchman. The RAM took it and they died, "is one of the messages shared in chains of Facebook and Whatsapp . Some accounts on Twitter echoed this, although they later erased the messages. "The K knew he was dead. They only used it to dirty the government, "they say, with no other evidence than the image of a corpse that would not match the artisan's appearance. In the middle, it is linked to the Cow Narvaja, exmilitantes Montoneros and relatives of Helena, the granddaughter of the expression Cristina Cristina de Kirchner.
It is not the first time that Maldonado's search is surrounded by false information. Days ago, it was rumored that his body had appeared in Chile, information that was denied by Interpol .
In the report, which was sent to the delegation of Interpol Argentina, they said: "In the framework of our cooperation and responding to your request, it is reported that consultations were held at the morgues of southern Chile, where date has not entered any body with the characteristics of the Argentine citizen. "
Days before, an anonymous report alerted the police of the locality of Epuyén of Chubuton the presence of a corpse in the zone, something that quickly made force troops deploy a rake.
The search did not return any results. The Chubut Police confirmed to the local radio FM Del Lago that raids were made on the river by a telephone complaint, which warned about a supposed body floating in the vicinity of Arroyo La Mina. The place is close to the point where witnesses said they had last seen Santiago Maldonado.
"It was a false accusation," confirmed Oscar Currilen, intendant of the Chubut town of El Maitén. "A complaint was received at the police station in El Maitén and immediately the raids were made where they had indicated that the body would be, but this information was completely discarded," added the commander in dialogue with the El Patagónico portal.
