Cassim Hansa, a seasoned technical underwriter at Firedart Engineering Underwriters, highlighted the critical role of engineering insurance in Africa's infrastructure development. He emphasised the dynamic nature of underwriting, where projects are often insured from the ground up. Collaboration is key, as no single insurer can manage the risks of large-scale projects alone. Hansa is particularly excited about opportunities in East Africa and Malawi, where ambitious projects like the Lake Malawi water initiative are poised to drive significant economic growth across the continent.
There was a plane accident in Malawi Tuesday afternoon involving a C210-type aircraft with three foreign passengers on board. Information Minister Moses Kunkuyu says the plane went down in Lake Malawi, and that a female passenger survived the accident with minor injuries. Malawian Vice President Saulos Chilima died in a plane crash along with eight other Malawians in June. Kunkuyu tells VOA's James Butty that rescue efforts were underway.
Čtrnáct let dělí sólová alba Jakuba Nováka aka Vlčáka. Mezitím hrál v několika projektech jako Vivien's Shadow nebo Out Of Silence. Aktuální deska NOW se natáčela v Tajným studiu Jana Brambůrka v Ústí nad Labem – a tohle místo se do nahrávky zásadním způsobem propsalo. Rozhovor o podzimních mlhách v Novém Strašecí. embed Vlčák vyrůstal v Novém Strašecí. Prostředí malého města se značnou koncentrací kreativních lidí – ale i podzimní sychravosti a nemizející mlhy – Nováka výrazně inspirovalo a motivovalo k uměleckému rozvoji. Debutové EP Justice (2010) výrazně rozšířilo jeho posluchačskou základnu. Po přestěhování do Prahy se stal součástí indie-folkové scény i díky sérii Večerů Jiného Folku. Vystoupil na festivalech Žižkovská Noc, United Islands, pódium sdílel se spřátelenými projekty Kuby Alexy, písničkáři jako Sunbeam, Emozpěv, Ernest Volter či Žofie Kabelková, ale také s kapelou Lake Malawi. Dlouhých čtrnáct let od vydání Vlčákova debutu vyplnil Jakub Novák dalšími hudebními projekty jako Vivien's Shadow, Out Of Silence nebo NOVAKRAUS.

Malawi is a small country that fits like a thin sliver between the Zambia, Tanzania, Mozambique. It's become known as the "beating heart of Africa" for being a sanctuary for people from some of the war-torn and troubled nations nearby. With a population of around 19 million, it's also one of the continent's most densely populated. Mwase's story begins by the shore of Lake Malawi, Africa's third largest lake and a feature of huge importance to the life and economy of the country. Although Mwase grew up in a small town, he was curious about the world and a backbacking trip around southern Africa opened his eyes to other cultures and lifestyles. When he returned to Malawi, he met an Australian volunteer, who he eventually married, and cutting a long story short. lead to his big move to Tasmania in the early 2000s. Tasmania in the early 2000s was only just starting to see a few faces from Africa on the streets, and discrimination and finding a sense of community were just some of the challenges Mwase had to deal with. He became involved with community care work and incorporated his passion and skills in music into this, and has been involved in numerous musical projects in his time in Tasmania.

Why does Namibia have a bizarre panhandle? Why do some Ghanaians talk of being from "Western Togoland"? Much of this has to do with African borders drawn up in Europe during late 19th century. Borders that to this day are still very much contested, and have had deadly consequences. We explore how treaties designed to prevent war in Europe have caused conflict in Africa.

When you say "African cichlids", you usually conjure up images of "peacocks" from Lake Malawi. This connotation is reductive because it ignores two facts. 1. Cichlidae is one of the most species diverse families of fishes in the world. 2. Africa is the second largest continent in the world. In this episode of the podcast, the Water Colors team try their best to ignore the African Great Lakes (Lake Malawi, Lake Victoria, and Lake Tanganyika) in order to explore the diversity of cichlids in ecosystems across the entire continent of Africa. You can share photos of your real African cichlids with us on the Water Colors Aquarium Gallery Podcast Listeners Facebook group. Corrections: - In this episode, we often use the phrase "Rift Lakes" to refer to Lake Malawi, Lake Victoria, and Lake Tanganyika. The "definition" we are using is more colloquial than it is accurate to the conventional geographic designation for lakes within the Rift Valley region of Africa. It might have been more accurate for us to say "African Great Lakes". - In this episode, Charles said "Rubrolatochromis", which is a genus that does not exist. We were talking about genera split from Pelvicachromis and he managed to erroneously "upgrade" the species Wallaceochromis rubrolabiatus to the genus level. - In this episode, Ben stated that baking soda (AKA sodium bicarbonate) has a "kpH" of 7.8. He was conflating the concepts pKa reaction of sodium bicarbonate carbonic acid, which have the respective pKa values of 10.3 and 6.4, with the 7.4-7.8 pH range that a sodium bicarbonate system will buffer to. Addendums: - The genus Haplochromis was originally coined by F.M. Hilgendorf in 1888 in an attempt to start sorting through the "wastebin genus" Chromis. He utilized Haplochromis obliquidens as his type species, but this entire arrangement was thrown into disarray when it was realized that "Chromis" was already in use for genus of small reef fishes, making it's usage for Pseudocrenilabrinae cichlids a junior homonym. This confusion has resulted in over a century of the taxonomic relations of this clade being redefined multiple times and the relationships between these clades are still misunderstood.

It's a new regular episode of Eurovision Queens featuring 7 more classic songs from contests past with your ESC-obsessed hosts Andy & Ryan. This time we unveil a brand new category as we ditch 2nd placed songs (we've done all the good ones!) for semi-final entries that didn't make it through to the final. It's a rich vein and we start strong with Kate Ryan's seminal Je t'adore from 2006. Two of the songs are performed by ‘fun aunties': Maltese powerhouse Claudette Pace with Desire (which should have won everything back in 2000) and the unstoppable Joy Fleming whose 1975 performance is as memorable as it is terrifying. We also hear from McBusted-esque Lake Malawi with Friend of a Friend and finally get around to celebrating the wondrous Gina G. There's even a mini-quiz in her honour. We return to Melfest for the supremely talented songwriter Cazzi Opeia with the catchy I Can't Get Enough. And then there's the Randomiser… oh dear. He's from Iceland. He's called Daniel. He looks like a creepy Bible salesman. His song is terrible. It secured zero points. You have been warned. So there we have it - another eclectic Eurovision fever dream and we loved every minute of it. Well almost every minute. Until next time.

In 100 years Lake Victoria has gone from an ecological miracle to a fish production powerhouse and now to an ecosystem on the brink of collapse. If the Lake continues on it's current path of pollution and degradation the impacts will be felt far and wide by the 25 million people whose livelihoods are dependent on the Lake. In this episode I speak to Mark Weston, author of The Saviour Fish (links to buy below), who spent two years living on Ukerewe island in Lake Victoria looking into all aspects of the environmental crisis he saw unfolding in front of him. We speak about: The fish that make up the biodiversity of Lake Victoria Why the cichlid numbers started to fall and the impact of this on the communities around the Lake The amazing resilience of the the fishermen and their families What can be done to reverse these trends and restore Lake Victoria to it's former glory Other links mentioned in the podcast: Buy the Saviour Fish here >>>https://saviourfish.net/Organisations working to restore the Lake: Shift 17 (https://www.shift17.co.uk/) in Lake Victoria and Ripple Africa in Lake Malawi (https://rippleafrica.org/)Book recommendation - Darwin's Dreampond by Tijs Goldschmidt (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Darwins-Dreampond-Drama-Lake-Victoria/dp/0262571218)Documentary recommendation - Darwin's Nightmare (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0424024/) Hosted on Acast.

Here is a story of the kindness of God to reach down to save a bitter young man in Africa. Mala grew up in a farming family on an island in Lake Malawi. He tells the story of how the Lord saved him during his college years, recognizing the emptiness of his pursuits. He was attacked, stabbed, almost died, and became bitter in the hospital. But that was only the beginning of the blessing.

Zpívající klavíristka, skladatelka, producentka a několikanásobná držitelka Andělů i dalších hudebních ocenění v těchto dnech vstupuje do českých kin prostřednictvím svojí hudby, kterou zkomponovala k životopisnému filmu Zátopek režiséra Davida Ondříčka. Její záběr je však nesmírně široký od liturgie, kterou složila pro Evangelický kancionál, po osnovy pro první české vysokoškolské studium jazzové hudby v Česku, které napsala společně se svým mužem, producentem Patrikem Karpentskim (Baromantika, Toxique, Lake Malawi) pro Janáčkovu akademii múzických umění v Brně. Hlavenková však spolupracovala i s kolegy jako Aneta Langerová, Lenka Dusilová, Dorota Barová, Yvonne Sanchez, David Koller a řada dalších. O tom všem bylo povídání v dalším On Air. Jak se píšou skripta pro jazzovou hudbu? Jak vzpomíná na to, že si na ni učitelka klavíru v „lidušce” stěžovala, že není moc pilná studentka? A proč sama sebe spíše nepovažuje za virtuóza? Poslechněte si celý rozhovor. ON AIR je talk show hudebního publicisty Pavla Kučery s hudebníky a lidmi z hudební branže. Nový díl je uveřejněn každý týden na YouTube kanálu kytary.cz.

Freetown is the capital city of Sierra Leone, a country in Western Africa. The name of the city has links to its origin as a British colony used to repatriate freed black people from across the British Empire (Jamaica and Canada) as well as other places as far and wide as The Congo and Lake Malawi. Britain insisted Freetown represented humanity, justice, and freedom but it didn't represent any of those things. It stole land, got local chiefs to sign dodgy contracts, and highlighted the false ideology of European superiority. In this episode, we look at how Britain annexed land in Freetown, and later on, Sierra Leone. Follow us on IG: itsacontinentpod and Twitter: itsacontinent.

Maria Coffey is the author of twelve internationally published, award winning books, the co-owner of an adventure travel company and an adventurer in her own right. Growing up in England, Maria always dreamt of having a freewheeling life, with no real idea of how she could make that happen. In her twenties she fell in love with an elite Himalayan mountaineer, Joe Tasker, and her adventures became vicarious ones, as she waited at home during his long expeditions. When Joe disappeared on the NE Ridge of Everest, in 1982, Maria was devastated. “His death blew my life apart,” she says, “but ultimately it jolted me alive.” A few years later she moved to Canada. She met a man who shared her dream of travelling the world, and together they began to make it a reality. Shortly after marrying Dag, Maria wrote her first book, Fragile Edge: Loss on Everest, an account of her relationship with Joe Tasker and her own journey to Everest in the wake of his death. The writing was pure catharsis, an untangling of emotional knots in her past so that she could move into the future. Originally published in 1989, Fragile Edge became a classic in mountaineering literature and has won several prizes. Years later Maria wrote Where the Mountain Casts its Shadow: The Dark Side of Adventure, about the emotional toll of climbing, which won the Jon Whyte Literature Prize at the 2003 Banff Festival and a 2004 National Outdoor Book Award. She completed what she calls ‘an unintentional trilogy' with Explorers of the Infinite, an examination of the link between adventure and spiritual experience. For these three books she was awarded the 2009 American Alpine Club's H. Adams Carter Literary Award. In the meantime Maria was publishing books about her exploits with Dag. Throwing up secure careers, they became expedition kayakers and a writer/photographer team. They paddled through the Solomon Islands, down the River Ganges, up Lake Malawi, and around Vancouver Island. They travelled the length of the coast of Vietnam on local boats and bikes. Dag, who is a large animal vet, did seasonal work in rural areas of Wales and Ireland, and they were head-hunted by a US travel company to develop international kayaking trips. In between all this kaleidoscopic activity, their home base was a tiny island in British Columbia, from where they commuted to the nearest town by kayak. In 2000 they set up Hidden Places, a boutique adventure travel company, taking small groups of like-minded travellers to remarkable corners of the world. When they weren't leading trips, they were still exploring themselves. After Dag had a life-changing experience with an elephant in Rajasthan, they established Elephant Earth, advocating and fundraising for elephant conservation and welfare in Africa and S.E Asia. After Explorers of the Infinite was published, Maria took a break from writing. She is now back in her author's skin, working on a memoir about choosing to be an adventurer instead of a mother. In the growing body of literature about the childfree choice, her book will fill an important niche, giving the perspective of an older woman – Maria is in her late 60s - who has led, and is still leading, an extraordinary life. When they are not travelling, or sailing aboard their tiny boat, Maria and Dag divide their time between downtown Victoria, BC and a medieval village in Catalonia, Spain.

The idea for KOSIN came about after a post surf coffee but is built on 20 years of friendship, shared values and the desire to share our stories and create something different... a brand that Andy & Joel truly believe in. Spending so much time together over the years has forged a very strong bond. Their similar experiences came from two very different places...

Follow explorer Mario Rigby on a 7,500-mile trek across the entire length of the African continent. Travelling on foot from Cape Town to Cairo, through South Africa, Mozambique, Malawi, Tanzania, Kenya, Sudan, Ethiopia and Egypt, Mario sought to understand the lives of African people better, to learn from them, sleeping where they slept, eating where they ate, living side-by-side, step-by-step. Born in the Turks & Caicos islands of the Caribbean, he also sought to learn about his roots and inspire other black men and women that though they may be shamefully under-represented in the outdoor and adventure industries, they too can be explorers. nnnBut it was more than that too. At the age 30, Mario found himself lost. He was living in Canada, unhappy with his job, uncertain of his future, uncertain how he could make a difference, how he could live a life of meaning and purpose. Then he remembered a hero from his childhood. Before T’Challa, otherwise known as the Black Panther, could become king he had to go on a journey, a ‘walkabout’ as he called it. He did this to learn how to be a better leader, a better person, to learn how to contribute to society and humanity as a whole. As a child Mario dreamed of doing the same thing, but as an adult he knew it was just a fairy tale. But what if it wasn’t? What if he too could go on a walkabout to learn about Africa, and himself, to change his life and start a new path?The way was unclear. He had no guarantees and very little money. He was daunted by the prospect. But nonetheless he plucked up the courage, flew to Cape Town, and began his own walkabout. In doing so, he would inspires all of us that anything is possible. He would inspire us that dreams don’t have to be fairy tales. Highlights include:· Hear the inspirational story of how Mario changed his life by setting out on a ‘walkabout’ in search of answers about himself and his place in the world· Find out how Mario became a Mozambique TV Star· Kayak with him nearly 400-miles across Lake Malawi, dodging crocodiles and hippos, camping out on remote villages, many of which had never seen a foreigner before· Walk among a troop of 1000 Gelada Baboons in the Simien Mountains of Ethiopia· Cross the deserts of Sudan, meeting the women who would later spark the revolution to overthrow the government, and the child refugees who were inspired by his story to find their own courage too· Discover what Mario learned, the answers he came too and how the journey changed his lifeGo and connect with Mario right now, his social media is awesome!

Ve 20. epizodě byl mým váženým hostem Albert Černý z kapely Lake Malawi. V prosinci vydal singl Nová Láska, který je jako první v češtině. Prozradil, pro koho původně tento singl napsal, a jak se bude jmenovat další song, který bude také v češtině. Probrali jsme také cestu na Eurovizi. Singl Friend Of A Friend, se kterým Lake Malawi reprezentovali Českou republiku původně pro tuto soutěž napsaný nebyl. A v neposlední řadě se Albert také zastavil u čísel na sociálních sítích. Jaký názor na to má, se dozvíte v podcastu. Hudební tipy:Del Water Gap – Ode to a Conversation Stuck in Your Throatalbum Miley Cyrus – Plastic Heartsalbum Shaw Mendes – Wonder
Když jsem před jedenácti lety v rádiu do hitparády uváděl kapelu Charlie Straight několikrát jsem se musel přesvědčit o tom, že je zpěvák skutečně z Česka. Když jsem našel Třinec pochopil jsem, že v tomhle kraji musí být něco s vodou, protože dal v poslední době Česku spoustu talentů. S nadšením jsem sledoval jeho další dráhu s Lake Malawi a s nadšením budu vyprávět o jejich neskutečném úspěchu na loňské Eurovizi, kde tahle nesmírně pracovitá parta získala úchvatné jedenácté místo v nesmírné konkurenci. Na kontě má Slavíka i Anděla a přitom je mu stále pouhých jednatřicet. A v roce 2020 poprvé zpívá v češtině. Singl Nová láska je venku a je k ní i klip a Albert Černý je naším hostem. Dobré ráno!

Samantha brings diverse experience from her entrepreneurial career from Aircraft Interior Refurbishment to discovering Mumbo Island on Lake Malawi whilst on a kayaking expedition and starting Kayak Africa. Her story is legendary in the sense that she spent 5 month traversing the deserts of Namibia where her brand originated. Her desert salt adventure started by packing bags on her dining room table. She has a 12 year old son Kiran. She is passionate about Salt and regards it as an underrated seasoning. Her products have been well received in most restaurants and retailers due to their organic nature. Before starting Orynx, Samantha ran an NGO for seven years, which used music to spiritually and emotionally uplift children in rural communities. Looking for a business opportunity after the birth of her son, she happened to come across this natural mineral-rich salt from the Kalahari Desert. While Skyring has broken the retail ceiling, she hasn’t wavered from her personal commitment to run a business built on uplifting lives. In this episode she talks about her journey to founding her company, things that keep her grounded and why she loves travelling across the different African countries.
Albert Černý found fame at a young age when his first band Charlie Straight won three Czech national Anděl music awards following the release of their debut LP. The lively singer-songwriter later formed Lake Malawi; the group's biggest moment to date was representing the Czech Republic in last year's Eurovision Song Contest, where they finished a very creditable 11th. In recent times Černý (31) has also been doing some modelling and TV work.
Mario Rigby is a modern day explorer that's not afraid to push physical and mental limits all while addressing the issues of diversity, poverty and sustainability. Mario has completed an astonishing 12,000 km trek northward across eight African countries, entirely by foot and kayak. He was tested physically and emotionally in ways that would make anyone stop short. He contracted malaria, kayaked 550 km across Lake Malawi for two months, dodged bullets with government soldiers in a war zone, was attacked by wild dogs, and was jailed for several days near a small village, to name just a few of the many challenges he faced. In 2019, he cycled unsupported across Canada, traveling 73,000 kilometres from Victoria, British Columbia to St. John’s Newfoundland and now during ,the pandemic summer of 2020, he kayaked the length of Lake Ontario. Rigby was chosen as one of the 200 nominees for the Most Influential People of African Descent global 100 list and is a Fellow-elect of the Royal Canadian Geographic Society.

A South African man has set two world records after completing a 54-day swim across Lake Malawi, the third largest lake in Africa. Forty-five-year-old swimmer Martin Hobbs now holds the Guinness / ˈgɪn ɪs / World Record for the longest solo swim in a lake after swimming 580 kilometers in 54 days. He was able to break the previous record, which was 480 kilometers in 45 days. Apart from this, Hobbs also got the world record for becoming the first individual to swim the entire length of the lake. Following these achievements, Hobbs was able to raise $10,000. He plans to further raise money by giving speeches and writing books about his experiences until he reaches about $35,000. The Solo Swimmer, as people now call Hobbs, intends to donate the money to the Smile Foundation, a charitable organization that helps children with facial deformities. Hobbs's journey was not an easy one. Lake Malawi is known to be home to wild animals and harmful insects, such as crocodiles and mosquitoes. The swimmer admitted that he was terrified of the crocodiles in the lake. In addition to this, Hobbs also had to endure inclement weather. At one point, he and his team even experienced a tornado. The efforts of the swimmer have greatly helped the Smile Foundation. Even before Hobbs finished his course, an organization has already pledged a donation amounting to about $6,900. The Smile Foundation is very grateful to Hobbs for his help. Hedley Lewis, the Smile Foundation CEO, congratulated and thanked the swimmer for raising awareness and funds for the children under the organization's care.

„Eurovizi jsem také kritizoval. Změnil jsem názor. Ten, kdo poslouchá jakoukoliv hudbu, by tu soutěž neměl odsuzovat. Každý rok ji sleduje přes dvě stě milionů lidí. Má to obrovský počet fanoušků. Na základě zážitků, které s Eurovizí zatím mám, můžu říct, že je to strašně přátelské prostředí,“ říká v Rozhovoru Martina Minhy zpěvák kapely Lake Malawi a letošní reprezentant České republiky na Eurovizi Albert Černý.

Heute ist Eberhard Forcher, Ö3-Moderator, Musiker und Eurovision Song Contest-Scout, zu Gast in der ersten Episode des "Merci, Chérie" Podcasts. Im Gespräch mit Marco Schreuder und Alkis Vlassakakis erzählt er, wie er den perfekten Eurovision Song Contest-Song findet. 2016 war er für zehn Acts für eine nationale Vorausscheidung in Österreich verantwortlich, aus der Zoë als Siegerin hervorging. 2017 bis 2019 suchte er den Act bei internen Vorausscheidungen, aus denen Nathan Trent, Cesár Sampson und Pænda hervorgingen. Welchen Unterschied machen eine offene oder eine geschlossene Vorausscheidung? Wie geht er vor, einen guten Act als Vertreter Österreichs zu finden? Solche und andere Fragen werden in dieser Episode beantwortet. Zudem diskutieren Marco Schreuder und Alkis Vlassakakis über Anfeindungen gegen den französischen Vertreter Bilal Hassani (hier seine Performance), über neue Komponisten von Nettas Toy und über die tschechische Vorausscheidung für den Eurovision Song Contest 2019 mit dem Siegersong von Lake Malawi hier. Am Ende wird in der kleinen Song Contest Geschichte am Schluss verraten, wie der Hörbiger-Clan den Eurovision Song Contest gewann.

Overlanding Africa with kids: would you do it? This week's guest just finished an amazing trip through six African countries — all in a Land Rover. If you're interested in what it's like to drive across the African continent, listen in! Overlanding Africa with Kids If you've ever thought about driving across Africa, then this is an interview for you. Jenny Lynn and her family have just returned from overlanding Africa for months. They started in South Africa. Then they drove through Mozambique, Tanzania, Malawi, Zambia, and Namibia. ::: Like what you’re hearing? Then please subscribe, rate & review Epic Education Radio.

We talk planning, budgeting and the on-the-ground experience of overlanding Africa. If you're interested in exploring places like Mozambique, Tanzania, and Namibia with kids, then listen in. Or look for more overland travel stories The last time we spoke to Jenny, she and her family were living in India. As we catch up, she tells me about the changes since we last talked. Her husband decided to take a voluntary redundancy package so they could plan an overland trip in Africa with their two young boys.

LINKS & RESOURCES Tracks4Africa Books & Maps Drive Moz FIND THEM ON TraveLynn Family | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | Pinterest What is Overlanding? The term "overlanding" is the idea of driving yourself from country to country. No planes. The term is often used when talking about driving across continents like Africa, Australia or South America. However, I consider any long-term, multi-country trip where you drive yourself the entire way to be overlanding, or overland travel. That could be by car, train, boat or bicycle. It could be on foot. As long as you stay on the ground and cross over the land that way, let's call that overlanding. How to Plan an Overland Trip One of the trickiest parts of the planning became an act of pure luck and serendipity. A South African friend rented them their own Land Rover, complete with stove, fridge, and tents that pop up on the top. They camped their way through Mozambique, Tanzania, Malawi, Zambia, and Namibia, stocking up at local markets along the way. She describes their ride and the patterns of life in more detail in the podcast. Did they have any experience overlanding in Africa? Not really. They had backpacked in various African destinations before kids. They had also had driven a 2-wheel-drive car there. That said, they learned that overlanding Africa is a completely different thing. Did they have any 4-wheel-drive training? Not before they left. They learned along the way. It was a challenge but worth it, she said. There were roads turned to slush because of massive rains. There were sandtraps where local kids helped them push the landrover out. Overlanding in Africa is not for the faint of heart, but at the same time, it's not as hard as one might think. Is Overlanding Africa Safe? Many of you are probably asking yourself: is overlanding Africa safe? According to Jenny, absolutely yes. Sure, there are hazards to navigate: wildlife, bad roads, and the corrupt police are a few. That said, Jenny says that it was much easier than you might expect. As for health and safety, we discuss immunizations and first aid. Aside from a few scrape and bruises (kids are kids after all), they had no incidents. As for food, Jenny says that they could always find things some of their staples. Things like eggs, potatoes, and bananas were common, with other things available in different places. We also talk malaria: a genuine concern in many countries in Africa. She talks about the medicine they took and her reasoning behind it. Overlanding Mozambique with Kids According to Jenny, many had warned them that Mozambique would be a challenge. That they would be stopped frequently by local police and other irritations. However, this turned out not to be the case for them at all. They had no issues overlanding in Mozambique and enjoyed some of its amazing beaches. In fact, Jenny says that they rival the beaches of Australia — a bold statement to be sure. Overlanding Tanzania with Kids For the Lynn family, it turns out, overlanding in Tanzania was the real challenge. For one thing, there are political changes happening in the country. This made some interactions with police and government officials more awkward. Then there were the prices. For example, everyone wants to see the Serengeti, right? So did Jenny and family. However, the prices and paperwork made it a no-go. However, they chose a lesser-known National Park (Tangiri) for a self-drive safari. The result: it was a 10th of the price but with plenty of wildlife. Another challenge in Tanzania was the weather: the country was having the worst rains in a decade. This made overlanding Tanzania even more of a struggle. They ended up speeding through the country and leaving earlier than they planned. But not before seeing Mount Kilimanjaro, which made the visit all worth it. Overlanding Malawi with Kids Jenny says that despite some initial issues with their entry visa, they loved their time in overlanding Malawi. The people were warm and welcoming, she says and there are some great hikes that even little kids can do. The country is dense, so it's easy to get from one place to the next without long drives. Of course, Lake Malawi is another highlight. Overlanding Namibia with Kids Out of all the African countries they visited on this trip, Namibia is where she recommends to first-time visitors to the continent. Overlanding Namibia is easier, she says. There are better roads, good medical care, and affordable self-drive safaris. What's more, Namibia has some of the most unique and otherworldly landscapes in the world. There are deserts and jaw-dropping landscapes. Then there is the Skeleton Coast, with its many shipwrecks just off of the beach. Have You Been Overlanding in Africa? I'd love to hear your stories, tips, and advice for overlanding Africa.

Msese wetmill is part of South East Mzima Cooperative Society and is one of a few washing stations that form the coop in the Msese zone in North-central Malawi. The mill processes an average of 15,000kg of coffee cherries per year sourced from 60 farmers of the Ngoni & Tonga tribes. These producers are subsistence farmers for whom coffee represents an important part of the local economy. They also grow maize, beans and soya - though premium specialty coffee remains a vital cash crop allowing these farmers to provide for their families. The Mzuzu Co-operative Union's aim is that all small-holder farmers are guaranteed... Accommodation which is iron-roofed, cement-floored, plastered and well-ventilated Food security (three decent meals a day) Adequate clothing and bedding for their families Education for their children The coffee is wet processed, where the fully ripe cherries are... Pulped Fermented for 12-48 hours (depending on climatic conditions) Washed Dried slowly over 2-3 weeks on raised African beds The coffee is then delivered to the dry mill where it is rested in parchment before being hulled, cleaned, graded by bean size and handpicked before being bagged in GrainPro for export. Msese is located on the Southern tip of the South Viphya Plateau, between the Kahingina Forest Reserve & the Viphya Complex Forest Reserve. The altitude generally ranges between 1,200 & 1,300 metres above sea level with some areas rising up to 1,700m. To the east is Lake Malawi, one of the ‘African Great Lakes' constituting the Great Rift Valley which runs through the east of the continent. Malawi is one of the world's least developed countries. In many places the roads are poor, making the area very difficult to reach in the rainy season. Electricity is scarce and access to drinking water and medical facilities still presents a challenge to the local population. In the cup this starts off very floral with a delicate fruit sweetness, this shifts towards kiwi fruit before finishing with a big glug of chocolate milk.

By the time that David Livingstone died on the banks of Lake Bangweulu, his name was already legend -- first, as a great explorer, becoming the first European to lay eyes on Victoria Falls and Lake Malawi, and second as a fierce advocate against the slave trade. But we often forget that he was a medical doctor, and made significant contributions to the nascent field of tropical medicine. In Episode 18 of Bedside Rounds, I recount his innovations in fighting malaria and discuss all the fun (by which I mean quite gross, and very deadly) tropical diseases that he described in his journals. Even though the phrase was almost certainly made up, you should still listen to "Dr. Livingstone, I presume?"
Grown in the Viphya North Hills on the grassland plateau overlooking Lake Malawi, this micro lot is a mix of Nyika (which is a dwarf hybrid of Catimor 129 developed in Malawi) and the much prized Geisha vareital. Geisha is an ancient and very rare coffee variety that has gianed a lot of favour of late, but is very low yielding and vulnerable to disease and pests. The Nyika is the opposite, high yielding, hardy and strong, but catimor is less desirable to the coffee buyer who doesn’t taste. Luckily for this coffee it was part of a competition where the lots are all cupped blindly called the Taste of Harvest (ToH) competition. A competition that is held in a few african countries, and this one won outright coming first this year for Malawi. Located on the Viphya plateau which is in the eastern part of Mzimba district, Northern Malawi. Approx 85km south of Mzimba town, and 165km south of Mzuzu (the regional capital). After pulping, coffee is fermented underwater (using clean water from local rivers) for between 12-36 hours, in order to remove remaining mucilage. Post-fermentation, coffee is washed and graded in sorting channels. Processing water is redistributed into seepage pits. Parchment is then placed on pre-drying beds for 2-3 hours, until any surface water has evaporated, before being transferred to African raised beds, in layers of 3-5cm. In order to prevent parchment cracking, it is turned regularly, and covered at midday heat, to ensure uniform drying. When moisture levels reach 10.5-11%, it is removed from drying tables and placed in conditioning bins, in the parchment shed. In the cup expect a lovely clean lemon citrus, and huge floral hit. But then this coffee surprises you as it takes a left turn into toffee sweetness and a mouthfeel and taste that only reminds me of my childhood and Nesquik chocolate milkshake.

Background: The Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) is an arthropod-borne phlebovirus. RVFV mostly causes outbreaks among domestic ruminants with a major economic impact. Human infections are associated with these events, with a fatality rate of 0.5-2%. Since the virus is able to use many mosquito species of temperate climates as vectors, it has a high potential to spread to outside Africa. Methodology/Principal Findings: We conducted a stratified, cross-sectional sero-prevalence survey in 1228 participants from Mbeya region, southwestern Tanzania. Samples were selected from 17,872 persons who took part in a cohort study in 2007 and 2008. RVFV IgG status was determined by indirect immunofluorescence. Possible risk factors were analyzed using uni-and multi-variable Poisson regression models. We found a unique local maximum of RVFV IgG prevalence of 29.3% in a study site close to Lake Malawi (N = 150). The overall seroprevalence was 5.2%. Seropositivity was significantly associated with higher age, lower socio-economic status, ownership of cattle and decreased with distance to Lake Malawi. A high vegetation density, higher minimum and lower maximum temperatures were found to be associated with RVFV IgG positivity. Altitude of residence, especially on a small scale in the high-prevalence area was strongly correlated (PR 0.87 per meter, 95% CI = 0.80-0.94). Abundant surface water collections are present in the lower areas of the high-prevalence site. RVF has not been diagnosed clinically, nor an outbreak detected in the high-prevalence area. Conclusions: RVFV is probably circulating endemically in the region. The presence of cattle, dense vegetation and temperate conditions favour mosquito propagation and virus replication in the vector and seem to play major roles in virus transmission and circulation. The environmental risk-factors that we identified could serve to more exactly determine areas at risk for RVFV endemicity.

Old World Cichlids, comprised primarily of fish from Africa, are a large and very diverse group of fishes in the aquarium hobby. Aquarium enthusiasts are familiar with many of the beautifully-colored species from Lake Malawi and Lake Tanganyika, including the peacock cichlids, red zebras, and brichardi. These same fish also hold great interest for scientists because of their fascinating reproductive biology, ecology, behavior, and evolution. Laif DeMason, a well-known importer and breeder of African cichlids, is the owner of Old World Exotic Fish, Inc., based in Homestead, Florida. Laif has been breeding cichlids since 1969 and currently specializes in production and importation of African cichlids. Laif has authored numerous aquarium fish articles and writes a regular column for Cichlid News entitled "What’s New Around the World?" Join us, as we talk to Laif about his business, his favorite fish, and what hobbyists need to know to succeed with African cichlids.

The Amateur Traveler talks to Joseph about his recent trip to Malawi in Southern Africa. Malawi is not know for its game parks like other countries in the region for for the relaxing shores of Lake Malawi as well as the lush green highlights. It is a country heavily influenced by David Livingstone and the Scottish Presbyterian church and one benefit of this legacy is welcoming church guest houses to stay in. So join Joseph and I as we talk about the people, the politics and the minibuses of Malawi.
