Something is changing, and most of us can feel it even if we cannot quite explain it.

Life is becoming more convenient, more connected, more expensive, and somehow less alive.

Holidays come and go without the excitement they once carried. Weekends have become recovery rooms for exhausted people. School trips that were once about children seeing the world, laughing with friends and coming home with stories are increasingly conversations about fees, budgets and whether parents can afford them.

Even the things we buy feel temporary. Phones are replaced before memories can attach themselves to them. Cars become financial obligations instead of family companions. Furniture changes. Clothes change. Gadgets change. Everything is designed to be upgraded, replaced or discarded.

We are surrounded by more things, yet somehow we are collecting fewer stories.

Even families are changing.

People are having fewer children. Others are postponing children because rent is high, school fees are frightening, healthcare is expensive and simply surviving already feels like a full time job. In some homes, the age gap between siblings stretches for years because parents are trying to breathe financially before starting again.

And perhaps that is the saddest part.

Money has quietly moved from being something we use to live into something that determines whether we are allowed to participate in life at all.

Want to visit your parents? Money.

Want to attend a wedding? Money.

Want to bury a relative with dignity? Money.

Want your children to experience something beautiful? Money.

Want to sit with friends somewhere comfortable? Money.

Want to be considered a responsible son or daughter? Somehow, even love now arrives carrying a price tag.

We have commercialised almost everything.

Friendship has become networking. Rest has become a luxury. Hobbies have become side hustles. Homes have become investments. Childhood has become a budget. Relationships are increasingly measured by what someone can provide.

And slowly, without noticing, we are turning human beings into economic units.

We work so hard trying to afford life that we sometimes forget to actually live it.

Maybe that is why so many people feel tired even after sleeping.

Maybe that is why celebrations feel quieter.

Maybe that is why people can have thousands of followers and still feel painfully alone.

Maybe the real poverty creeping into our generation is not simply the absence of money.

It is the disappearance of meaning.

And if we are not careful, we may wake up one day having acquired everything we were told to chase, only to realise that somewhere along the way we lost community, family, wonder, time, friendship and the simple joy of being alive.

A colder season may indeed be approaching.

But perhaps our greatest defence will not be more possessions.

It will be finding our way back to one another.

Kudos, for playing your part!
I am sure you read the recent study about honey in Nakuru! Food adulteration has reached epidemic levels. I have read reports about hydrogen peroxide in milk, red dye in palm oil..the lengths to which food producers are willing to go to for a quick buck as insane!

[Dr. Catherine Kyobutungi Muzukulu wa Bityo @CKyobutungi]

Part 3:

Then there is you!
1) Drinking poison from the bar at least 3 times a week
2) Eating food with (pesticide laden) tomatoes three times a day
3) Drinking two cups of milk tea twice a day - everyday (and a microdose of aflatoxins)
4) Putting unhealthy carbs in your black tea, (thinking it's healthier than sugar)
5) Enjoying your kuku choma every Friday (full of antibiotics that are silently driving the AMR epidemic)
6) Serving yourself healthy portions of veggies (with a dose of e.coli and heavy-metals) every day, because the doctor told you to

[Dr. Catherine Kyobutungi Muzukulu wa Bityo @CKyobutungi]

The beekeeper ends his busy day in the bar
The bar owner buys tomatoes every week
The tomato farmer never misses roasted chicken on Saturday
The poultry farmer is drinking aflatoxin-contaminated milk tea everyday
The milk farmer loves honey in his black tea
The beefarmer eats his five servings of vegetables religiously

[Dr. Catherine Kyobutungi Muzukulu wa Bityo @CKyobutungi]

The bar owner is adultering the alcohol
The tomato farmer is using pesticides dangerously
The milk farmer is using aflatoxin-laden feeds
The beekeeper is adding molasses to their honey
The poultry farmer is overusing antibiotics
The vegetable farmer is using sewage water and pesticides......

KQ's largest passenger aircraft, the 400-seat Boeing 777-300ER, has returned to Nairobi after a 10-year sublease to Turkish Airlines.

The aircraft will operate Nairobi–Mombasa flights from July 13 with fares discounted by up to 50% before returning to the Nairobi–London route on July 17.

Over the next decade, subscriptions, digital fees, licences and recurring charges will consume a growing share of household income. Remaining completely dependent on the system will become increasingly expensive.

Buy affordable land wherever possible. Grow part of your food, keep a few animals, harvest rainwater and explore reliable water sources. Self-sufficiency will become a form of financial security.

Learn a practical skill that cannot be switched off by an app, disrupted by automation or taken away by an employer. Farming, construction, repair, fabrication and food production will remain valuable.

The future will reward people who can produce, repair, build and survive beyond monthly payments. Prepare quietly, reduce dependency and create assets that can sustain you when economic conditions become harder.

[Prime Minister of Israel @IsraeliPM]

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Remarks at the @JNS_org International Policy Summit 2026 #JNS26

“Thank you, Mark Levin. I wish I could use you as my advisor. Every day. You know, in the United States they say that President Trump does everything that I ask him to do, and in Israel they say that I do everything that he wants me to do. Well, neither is true. We're leaders of independent and proud countries. We stand for our interests. I stand for the interests of Israel, and for its security. And often we see eye to eye. Sometimes we don't. But we respect each other's sovereignty, leadership and commitment to our people.

Last year, standing on this stage, I saw some of you. I can't see any of you right now. But I saw some dear friends who are here. Richard. Thank you. We also have the Serbian president of Bosnia Herzegovina. Thank you, Madam. We'll have an opportunity to talk tomorrow. There are so many dear friends here. And I mean that.

So last year standing on this stage I spoke about decisions.
Difficult decisions.
Historic decisions.
Decisions that many at the time, Mark, many of those running against me, said I shouldn't have taken at the time.
They told me not to enter Rafah. I entered Rafah.
I was told not to strike Hezbollah. We struck Hezbollah.
They told me not to confront Iran. We confronted Iran.

And today, I want to begin with a simple question: What have we achieved?
Because these same people and their cronies in the press are trying to diminish our achievements. In fact, they are trying to erase them completely.
So what is it that we achieved. Here's what we achieved.
We have prevented Iran from carrying out a plan to annihilate us, and today they would have had a nuclear weapon, an atomic bomb to do so. We prevented that from happening. We removed an existential danger. And had we not acted in Operation Rising Lion and then in Operation Roaring Lion, Iran would have had atomic bombs. And let me tell you something, they would have used them. That's what we prevented.

Together with our American friends, the American Airforce, the American military, we carried out the largest air strike in our history.
We destroyed Iran's nuclear infrastructure.
We knocked out 20 of their top nuclear scientists. 12 in Rising Lion, another 8 in Roaring Lion. And when you take out the nuclear scientists, it's very hard to make a nuclear weapon. Exceedingly hard.
We decapitated the leadership of the terror regime.
We shattered their missile industry. We knocked out their nave, we knocked out their air force. We attacked their military industries, their bridges, we attacked so many targets that the cumulative damage that we did to the IRGC economy is not counted in the millions, it's not counted in the hundred millions, it's not counted in the billions, It's counted in the hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars. And it will take them a long time to recover. A long time. And they may not recover. Because once you deal these blows, and once the rift between the regime and the people is so deep, you cannot tell when such a regime will fall. And I think we created the condition for its future fall. That is what will be the real triumph. When the Iranian people take their own destiny in their hands and they knock out this brutal regime that is terrorizing them and terrorizing the rest of the world.

But we didn't just confront Iran. We shattered Iran's terror axis.
We took out Sinwar.
We took out Haniyeh.
We took out Deif.
We took out tens of thousands of terrorists.
And despite those who said it could not be done: We brought back to Israel every single hostage. Every last one of them.

That too, some of my critics, they don't want to be reminded of this, but they said stop before Rafah. Make a deal. Let's get the terrorists, let's get our hostages out. We don't have to enter Rafah. We don't have to take the Philadelphi Corridor. We don't have to take down Hezbollah and for God's sake we shouldn't take on Iran. We didn't listen to them and we did it. Because we put our brave soldiers, our incomparably heroic soldiers right into their stronghold in Gaza and they capitulated. We brought back every last hostage and I think it's an achievement that the entire people of Israel and the entire people of the free world should be proud of. We brought them back.

In Lebanon we exploded, I don't know if I should call it the beepers or the pagers. What do you use in America? Beepers. We exploded the beepers. We took out Nasrallah.
We decimated Hezbollah's military machine.

We prevented the Radwan force from invading the Galilee.
We destroyed over 90% of the 150,000 rockets and missiles Hezbollah amassed against us.
We established a security zone in Gaza.
We established a security zone in Syria.
We established a security zone in Lebanon.
And we shall keep it as long as is necessary to protect our people.
I'll tell you what other achievement which in many ways, as Sara tells me… You know what they say in the Bible. Everything Sarah said to Abraham, you know, God said, everything that Sarah says, you should listen to it. I'm not Abraham, but I listen to my Sara.

I think the greatest achievement that we've made is to break through the barrier of fear. For years people told us you cannot attack the soil of Iran. Yes, you can do Mossad operations and we did quite a few. I authorized many. But you cannot send our military to Iran. But we changed that. We sent our brave pilots over the skies of Iran and they took out targets, regime targets, terror targets, Missile batteries, Missile production sites, and nuclear sites.

We changed Israel's security doctrine.
We initiate.
We attack.
We surprise.
And we attack those enemies that seek our destruction, that seek to kill us. We attack them before they have a chance to do so. If you know Hebrew, הקם להורגך, השכם להורגו. Kill them first.

I came here on the 50th anniversary of my brother's fall in Entebbe, from Mount Herzl, at his grave site. Yoni fell in Entebbe, leading his soldiers in what is regarded as the greatest rescue operation of modern times. Entebbe showed that a free people, if they mobilize their courage and muster their strength, and they will, they can overcome the worst tyrannies in the world, however threatening, however challenging. And indeed after the Entebbe rescue, the rash of hijacking that was covering the entire world, that rash of hijacking stopped, almost stopped completely.

But the terror regimes did not disappear. And in fact they continue to grow, and the worst of them is Iran, the greatest sponsor of terrorism on the planet.
35 years after Yoni fell in Entebbe, in 2010, my father celebrated not far from here, at the Begin Institute, he didn't celebrate, they celebrated for him, his 100th birthday. Historians spoke of his historical research on the Spanish Inquisition and the origins of Zionism.

And those who knew the story of his actions in the United States to muster support for the Jewish state during World War II, his meetings with Eisenhower and many others, they spoke about that too. And a day's worth of lectures and compliments and praise, my father came to the stage, unaided, he was 100 years old, and he said this. He said, thank you for your compliments. Thank you for these kind words. But time is short, so let me get right to the point. And here's what he said. Here's the point. "Iran vows to destroy the Jewish state. The people of Israel are showing the world how a nation should behave when faced with an existential threat. Stare unflinchingly at the danger, calmy consider what needs to be done and what can be done, and be ready to enter the fray at the proper moment."

And then he ended his words, these are the last public words in my father's life, "This leads to my certain belief," he said, "that our people will roll back this danger to our existence."

Well, 16 years later we did just that. And I say to you now what I said at my brother's grave a few hours ago, today. I said, no matter what happens in the talks, with an agreement, without an agreement, I pledge to you that Iran, as long as I am Prime Minister of Israel, will never have a nuclear weapon. Never. As long as I am the prime minister of Israel, I will not let that happen.

And I said something else about Lebanon, and I repeat it here a few minutes ago, as long as we need to protect our people, we will remain in the security zone in South Lebanon. And the reason is perfectly understood. No country would be asked to do otherwise. Can you imagine the United States across the border, you have an army of thousands of terrorists who pellet your cities and your town with rockets and ballistic missiles and killer drones. They kill your soldiers, they kill your citizens, they kill your children. And they threaten them every day. Well, what would America do? Would it say, well, there's nothing we can do? Let's hold our fire? Is that what America would say? No!

You know damn well what America would do. It would cross the border, create a security zone, kill the terrorists and protect its people until the threat is removed. That is exactly what we are doing.

And let me tell you something else. No country would do it better. Because the terrorists, not only target civilians' they also hide behind their own civilians. They are, by the way, committing a double war crime doing that. So the question is what do you do about that. We target the terrorists, but there are some civilian casualties in every such #JNS26 every such urban warfare. And normally the ratio of combatants to non-combatants killed, non combatants to combatants killed is about 7 to 1, 8 to 1. In Gaza it was much much lower than that, despite all the lies and vilifications aimed at Israel. But I asked our people, our research arm in the Defense Ministry. I said, what is the ratio in Lebanon? And they said to me, today, I just got the document today. Prime Minister, it's 5 to 1. No, not 5 civilians killed for every terrorist, 5 terrorists killed for every civilian that is harmed in the process. 5 to 1. Unheard of. Because no army goes to such lengths like the Israeli army to target terrorists and minimize civilian casualties. We should be commended for it, not condemned.

We do everything in our power to protect our people. We don't have a war with Lebanon. We have a war with Hezbollah who terrorizes Lebanon and seeks our destruction. And when that proxy of iran is no longer a threat, whether it's dismantled or disarmed, yes, we'll have peace with Lebanon and I look forward to signing it. By the way Mark, I intend to be here for quite a while. I want you to know that.

These and other matters are the interests of the security of the State of Israel. I've devoted my life to protect the security of the State of Israel and nothing will change that. Nothing. Absolutely nothing.
And I can do so because I have the support of my dear family, my wife and my children, but I have the support of the vast majority of the people of Israel. Our people are so strong. They're so strong. Our soldiers are brave. There are no braver soldiers on the planet. They're so heroic. And we are determined, we are resolved to protect our country whatever the cost.

But let me tell you something else, that I know troubles every one of you.
We see the rising tide of terrorism. It afflicts every country in the world right now, and it afflicts the United States of America.
Now let me tell you how antisemitism works down the ages.

Ever since we lost our country and became defenseless, we were defenseless not only against physical attack, but the vilifications that often and always preceded them. So we were faced in one countrywith such vilifications and that led, eventually, to either one of two things. Either exile or massacre. And then we went to another country and we faced exactly the same thing, after the vituperations and vilifications, that we are poisoning the wells, that we drink the blood of slain children, that we carry vermin.

And by the way, these are the exact lies that continued right up to the Nazi Holocaust. So we were faced with these vilifications and then we were massacred and then we were pushed to another country, and another country, and the same thing happened over and over and over again. Well, here's where the change happened. It happened with the rise of the State of Israel and the creation of the Israeli army. We may not be able to stop the vilifications. They come and go in a predictable cycle, as my historian father told me. But the change is that when they come to slaughter us, we fight back. We don't let them do that. We fight back and we roll them back. Exactly as we have done now in the last three years.

I pledge to you, that we will also fight this battle of antisemitism around the world. We will fight on the eight front as well. The battle against delegitimization, the battle against the calumny that is directed against the Jewish people.

But I ask you, the Jews of America and the Jews of the Diaspora, to do one thing. Stand up. Don't cower. Don't be afraid. Fight back. Because people will only respect us if we respect ourselves. When they level lies at us, throw back the truth, and do it standing up. Stand up for the truth, stand up for Israel, stand up for the Jewish people. Stand up for the Jewish future.
Thank you, all”.

DT Sacco has been ordered to pay Ksh 250,000 to Bosco Otieno for sending him messages yet he wasn't even a member.

The SACCO claimed to have investigated the matter, identified the source of the problem, and resolved the issue by removing the Complainant's mobile number from the member's account. They apologized for the inconvenience caused.The ODPC refused their apology and ordered them to pay 250k.

@GeorgeNatembeya This the curse of GOLD. Minerals tend to benefit a few who come up with cover up strategies on how to displace locals either by force( use militia groups).

Buy stocks whose historical revenue and share price diverge (Revenue ↑ while Share Price ↓)

Avoid stocks whose historical revenue trends downward, even if the share price is trending upward (Revenue ↓ while Share Price ↑)

Note: Use this alongside other fundamentals to get a fuller picture.
