THE BRAND AS JIHAD
Some mornings she would wake up positively dying for a ciggie, and she would think she didn’t have any, and she’d walk angrily through the house only to find that, yes, Douglas had hidden a pack away somewhere just for this emergency. He had seen enough times her mood swing into darkness when she learned there was not a Kent for her to smoke anywhere in the house. Cigarettes, Douglas had quickly discovered, were a reliable pacifier, that major catastrophe could be averted if he made certain there was always a smoke to be had. He also quickly learned that her first two hours of the day were delicate, barometric and tentative, and that she reacted badly to any intrusions in her routine. He took to setting her a place at the table each morning, having the kettle hot, and a cup and spoon and the instant coffee out and ready for her.

Africa’s Infrastructure-Incremental or Entrepreneurial?
Ordinarily, when I run into the opening phrase, ” what Africa needs is…” my mind is then prepared to hear all manners of conjecture next-maybe because the phrase connotes one big homogeneous landscape, where there is uniformity throughout the furthest reaches of the continent. However, that all changed the moment that I stumbled onto Andrew Mack’s blog, yesterday. For his post seemed to start in a similar way, but what came next made a lot of sense to me.
