1. Business: Bird Flu in Kenya?
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Bird
Flu has claimed more than 100 lives, according to the World
Health Organisation, and has spread to birds in at least
five countries in Africa -- Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Egypt,
Niger and Nigeria -- which is considered especially vulnerable
to human outbreaks.
The
Rift Valley countries of Ethiopia, Kenya and Tanzania in
East Africa are considered particularly at risk from bird
flu as they host millions of migratory fowl. To read the

2. Business: Future Plans for East Africa
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda aim to become one sovereign state
with a three-year revolving presidency by 2011 and an elected

3. Business: Mâori Television in New Zealand
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Mâori
Television was launched in March 2004 with a mandate to
promote and revitalise the Mâori language and culture
to a wider audience. Proving to be popular television for
its New Zealand audience, a second studio for daily news
production was commissioned in early April 2006 further
adding to its indigenous broadcasting capabilities. To read

4. Business: What Can We Do To Help The Poor?
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
African
ministers responsible for housing and urban development
have been discussing a 10-point action plan at a United
Nations-backed conference in Kenya, aimed at reducing urban
poverty, defusing potential social unrest, and reversing
the perception that governments are not doing enough on
a continent where over 70 percent of city dwellers live
in slums. To read the full report, go to our NEWS

5. Education: A Victorian Anthology
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Back
in the salad days of the British Empire, there was a Queen
named Victoria. She defined an age in a way that few could
do today, and certainly not for sixty years. While her writings
are not represented in this fine online collection, it contains
writings of many who flourished during her long reign. Bartleby.com
recently placed the complete Victorian Anthology, 1837-1895
here, and visitors will be most delighted when they browse
through its contents.
Edited
by one Edmund Clarence Stedman, this magnum opus contains
1274 works by 343 authors. It should be noted that the entire
work is comprised of poems, so those seeking lines from
Lord Jim or Martin Chuzzlewit may need to look elsewhere.
Of course, those who are temped by the quatrains of Yeats,
Arnold, or Rossetti will want to linger awhile. Visit
this site.

6. Education: How to Prevent Bird Flu
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Restoring
tens of thousands of lost and degraded wetlands around the
world could go a long way towards reducing the threat of
bird flu pandemics by keeping disease-carrying wild birds
away from infecting domestic poultry, according to a United
Nations report released today. To read the full report,

7. Education & Health: Fight Against Malaria in
Africa
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, has supported
Malaria Clinical Trails Alliance (MCTA) with $17 million
grants to fight malaria. MCTA is a new alliance to build
African capacity for malaria drug and vaccine research,
formed at Accra, Ghana. The international IND-EPTH Network,
announced that the establishment of MCTA will help conduct
clinical trials of new drugs and vaccines to fight malaria,
a disease that kills 2,000 African children everyday. To

"This
plant is Masai deodorant," chirps Cecelia, a confident
25-year-old from the Masai Mara game reserve in Kenya, as
she clamps a bunch of leaves, freshly snapped from the leleshwa
tree, under her arm. "It acts as a natural detergent
with similar properties to tea tree oil, so we rub it under
our arms to keep our sweat sweet," she says. To

9. Education: Victoria and Albert Museum in London
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Sitting
down to spend a few minutes browsing The Victoria and Albert
Museum's website is a bit like spending a few minutes at
a lavishly-prepared banquet that contains masterful examples
from the world's diverse culinary traditions: It cannot
be done. Fortunately, the website can be visited many times,
and given the impressive amount of fine content here, one
probably shouldn't just make one visit. First-time visitors
might want to take a look through the Collections area,
which allows them the opportunity to view material from
their architecture, ceramics, fashion, and design holdings.
Those
interested in the behind the scene operations of the museum
will want to slide on over to the Research & Conservation
area. Here they can learn how heavy sculptures are moved
throughout the museum and how the slightest and most delicate
objects are conserved. The homepage also contains basic,
yet essential, information on visiting any one of the three
museums, along with offering specialized websites that profile
current and upcoming exhibitions of note. Finally, if users
are feeling a bit overwhelmed, there is always the welcoming
blankness presented by a simple search feature in the upper-right
hand corner of each and every page within the site. Visit
this site.

10. Immigration: British Problems with Illegal Immigrants
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
= =
Criminal
gangs trading in people and fake ID are 'out of control',
senior police officers have told the BBC. The officer leading
the fight against organised immigration crime in London
said people-trafficking now amounted to a 21st Century slave
trade. Det. Ch. Insp. Bob Murrill said despite successful
prosecutions, passport factories now operated under franchise.

11. Immigration: Illegals now pouring into the Canary
Islands
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
= = = =
Illegal
immigration is now becoming a worldwide problem. Boatloads
of destitute Africans on rickety fishing boats are turning
up on the beaches of these Spanish resort islands nearly
every day, gaunt and exhausted from days at sea. They are
the lucky ones. Hundreds of others have died attempting
the ocean journey, and authorities are worried about a looming
crisis as summer approaches and more people make the trip.

12. Immigration: Legal Immigrants pouring into Ireland
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

Ireland
has had an influx of some 160,000 overseas immigrants over
the past 21 months. The majority of these migrants have
sought and received Personal Public Service numbers, and
are making a visible contribution to the economy. The majority
of immigrants are young adults, so from the 160,000 that
have entered Ireland to work, foreign labour makes up approximately
8% of the workforce. This figure is without comparison any
where in Europe. To read the full report, go to our NEWS

Washington
(AP) -- The Supreme Court on Monday thwarted a white
South African woman's efforts to seek asylum in the United
States on her claim that her family was persecuted by blacks
who worked for her allegedly racist father-in-law. To read

14. Immigration: South Africa Skills Shortage
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
The
Delamere Group has received growing complaints from international
business firms about South Africa's immigration rules. They
say bureaucracy and red tape are making it harder for them
to do business in the country because it's difficult to
find workers with the skills and experience they need. To

15. Travel: On Safari in Kenya with John Walsh
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Safaris,
thankfully, are no longer the glorified turkey-shoots they
once were, but John Walsh finds plenty of blood and gore
in Kenya as he goes out and about with the Masai. To read

16. Travel & Education: Contra Opinion of "Out
of Africa"
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
=
We
received this opinion from one of our readers this past
week. "One of the most dangerous books ever to come
out of Africa is, without doubt, this deceptively objective
tale of Karen Blixen's life in Kenya at the beginning of
Africa's century of colonisation."
Millions of Europeans and Americans who read Out
of Africa in the last century had Blixen's image of
native Africans permanently etched on their minds. To them,
all African became savages for whom it was the sacred duty
of the white man to come and "civilise", and to
exploit without scruple. To read this full report, go to

17. Travel: Your Next Vacation- Masai Mara Game Reserve
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
= =
What
strikes me most about the Masai Mara, a massive game reserve
in Kenya, is the amount of wildlife still roaming its grassy
plains. Hundreds, sometimes thousands, of animals dot the
landscape - from elephants and lions, to cheetahs, giraffes
and the always cranky wildebeest.
The
Delamere Group will be arranging for 3 free tickets at our
next management meeting. Please contact us for more details.
