Michelle Obama rolls eyes at John Boehner, sets Internet a
flame

Monday’s post-inaugural luncheon was a case study in body language--and nearly all of the physical evidence centered on House Speaker John Boehner. One interaction in particular already became an Internet meme: Michelle Obama rolling her eyes after listening to a comment from the Ohio Republican congressman.

Tumblr blogger “Mattyrab” was the first to capture the eye roll in action, sharing video of the exchange in a display described as a “historical moment in shade throwing.” The video has already been shared thousands of times across social media sites with viewers speculating on what sparked the First Lady’s facial expression.
We don’t have audio of their exchange so, for now, it’s impossible to know exactly what Boehner had said. In fact, it’s entirely possible that Michelle Obama's eye roll was simply a reaction to an innocuous joke from Boehner.
That moment was only one of several interactions involving the House speaker. For example, after Boehner’s brief and gracious remarks during the luncheon, he shook hands with President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden. Anyone watching the two exchanges closely would notice a distinct difference: While Boehner and Obama look friendly enough in the actual handshake, at no point do they appear to make eye contact; in contrast, Biden and Boehner appear to share a warmer greeting, smiling at each other and pulling in close.
Of course, any analysis is inevitably colored by one’s own estimation of these three men. But it certainly appears to correlate with the understanding that Biden has far more amicable relations with Congress than Obama.
Interestingly, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor even appeared to have a warmer exchange with Obama after his remarks than the president had with Boehner, as the two men looked each other in the eyes and traded what appeared to be firm, but friendly, greetings. If that indeed is the case, it’s noteworthy since Cantor is viewed as being even more ideologically opposed then the House speaker to Obama’s political agenda.
What do you think? Are political audiences overreacting to Michelle Obama’s facial expression? Or was it a candid moment captured on film showing that even during the most benign of political events, personality conflicts and personal feelings rise to the surface?

Rais wa Zanzibar a lipokutana na Viongozi wanaosimamia zao la karafuu Wete Pemba

Jumla ya shs Billioni 71 wamejipatia Wakulima wa Zao la Karafuu Kisiwani Pemba baada ya kuliuzia Shirika la Taifa la Biashara Zanzibar (ZSTC)  Karafuu zao zao katika msimu wa Karafuu unaotarajiwa kumalizika hivi karibuni.

 

 Rais wa Zanzibar na Mwenyekiti wa Braza la Mapinduzi Dkt Ali Mohamed Shein ameyaeleza hayo   leo hapo katika ukumbi wa Baraza la Wawakilishi  alipokuwa akitowa shukrani kwa Viongozi mbali mbali wa Mkoa huo wakiwamo vikosi vya ulinzi vya Polisi,JKU,KMKM,,ZIMAMOTO,VALANTIA, MAFUNZO, MASHEHA, WANANCHI NA KIKOSI KAZI CHA TAIFA CHA  USIMAMIZI WA ZAO LA  KARAFUU ZANZIBAR.

 

 Amesema kuwa kiasi hicho cha Fedha kimo mikononi mwa Wananchi ambapo kwa kiasi kikubwa zinaweza kuwasaidia sana katika maendeleo yao.

 

Dkt Shein amefurahishwa na juhudi mbali mbali mbali za Maendleo zinazochukuliwa na Wakulima kwa kuweza kujenga Nyumba  za Kisasa baada yakupata Fedha hizo za Karafuu ambapo pia amewataka kuchukuwa kila juhudi yakusafisha  Mashamba yao na  kupanda Mikarafuu mipya.

 

 Aidha Dkt Shein amefurahishwa na juhudi ya pamoja ziliochukuliwa na Viongozi mbali mbali, Wananchi, Masheha pamoja na Vikosi vya Ulinzi katika kuhakikisha kuwa msimu huu zao la Karafuu halitoroshwi kwa njia ya Magendo.

 

Amesema kuwa kosa juhudi za pamoja mafanikio hayo yasingeweza kupatikana ambapo mwaka jana  Mkoa wa Kaskazini Pemba ZSTC ilinunuwa jumla ya Tani 25 .6 tu wakati msimu huo katika Mkoa huo jumla ya tani 2180.5 za Karafuu zimenunuliwa.

   

Ameeleza kuwa kutokana na kazi nzuri iliofanywa safari hii hakuna hata Mkulima moja ,wala taasisi za binafsi na Serikali ambazo inalidai Fedha Shihirika la Taifa ZSTC.

 

Hata hivyo aliliagiza  Shirika la ZSTC kuziangali changamotozilizojitokeza katika msimu huu na baadae kuzipatia ufumbuzi ili msimu ujao uweze kwenda vizuri zaidi

 

 Changamoto hizo ni  kwa Vituo vya kununuwa Karafuu kujitosheleza katika hali zote  zikiwamo sehemu za kujisaidia ,Vifaa vya kukalia na pia kuweka Umeme katika vituo.

  

Mapema Dkt Shein amesema kuwa kwa upande wa Serikali itajitahidi katika kutengeneza Barabara za Vijijini   ili zao  hilo na mengine yaweze kupita bila ya matatizo na kusisitiza kuwa vita dhidi ya Magendo ya Karafuu ni lazima kwa Wananchi kuendelea kupiga vita ili nchi izidi
kufaidika kwa zao hilo am,balo ni tegemeo kwa Uchumi wa Nchi na Taifa kwa ujumla.

Kilimo kinawezekana tukiunganisha nguvu zetu kwa pamoja

Na Rashid Nchimbi wa Jeshi la Polisi Arusha

Mkuu wa Polisi wilaya ya Arusha Mrakibu Mwandamizi wa Polisi Gilles Muroto amewaambia wakazi wa Mtaa wa Sanawari waliopo Kata ya Sekei iliyopo halmashauri ya jiji la Arusha waunganishe nguvu zao pamoja ili waweze kuushinda uhalifu.

Hayo aliyasema jana katika mkutano kati jeshi la Polisi na wananchi hao uliofanyika katika uwanja wa wazi uliopo mtaani hapo ikiwa ni muendelezo wa mkakati wa jeshi hilo juu ya utoaji wa elimu ya polisi jamii kuanzia ngazi ya mtaa na vitongoji vya Mkoa huu wa Arusha.

Mkuu huyo wa Polisi wilaya alisema kitendo cha watu wachache kujitokeza kuhudhuria katika mkutano huo ambao ulikuwa unajadili mambo mbalimbali ya maendeleo ya mtaa pamoja na masuala ya ulinzi ni dalili tosha kwamba baadhi ya wakazi wa eneo hilo hawana umoja.

“Hii inashangaza yaani mkutano ambao umetangazwa karibu kila nyumba na una lengo la kujadili maendeleo ya mtaa ambao umehudhuriwa na viongozi wa mtaa pamoja na Diwani wa kata lakini watu wachache, hii ni hatari na hamtaweza kusonga mbele.” Alionya Mkuu huyo wa Polisi wilaya.

Alisema hali hiyo ya utengano ndio inayotoa mwanya kwa wahalifu kufanya uhalifu kwani mpaka hivi sasa mtaa huo hauna vikundi vya ulinzi shirikishi kwa kuwa wananchi hawahudhurii katika mikutano ili waweze kushirikiana na jeshi la Polisi kujadili suala hilo.

Mrakibu huyo Mwandamizi wa Polisi alisema kwamba, suala la ulinzi si la kiitikadi za kisiasa bali watu wa vyama vyote wanatakiwa washiriki kwani mhalifu anapovamia sehemu hamuulizi mwenye mali kama ni kiongozi, mwanachama au shabiki wa chama gani bali anaangalia kile anachokiihitaji.

Aliwataka wananchi wa Mtaa huo kuanza kuchukua hatua za kupambana na wahalifu kwa kuanzisha kikundi cha ulinzi shirikishi ambacho kitaendeshwa kwa michango ya kila mkazi ambaye atapaswa kufanya hivyo kwa ajili ya kuwalipa posho walinzi pamoja na ununuzi wa vifaa kama vile tochi, sare na kadhalika.

Aliongeza kwa kusema ili kikundi kikamilike inatakiwa wawe na silaha ya moto ambayo itawasaidia katika shughuli za doria badala ya kutumia marungu pekee. Alisema kikundi hicho kitakuwa kinafanya kazi hiyo kwa kushirikiana na jeshi la polisi ambapo pale wanapoona kuna matatizo watakuwa wanawasiliana na yeye au viongozi wengine wa jeshi hilo moja kwa moja ili waongezewe nguvu.

Mkutano huo uliohudhuriwa na Diwani wa Kata ya Sekei Mh. Chrispin Tarimo, Mwenyekiti wa mtaa huo Godfrey Mollel, Mkuu wa Kitengo cha Polisi Jamii Mkoa wa Arusha Mrakibu wa Polisi Mary Lugola, Polisi Tarafa ya Themi Mkaguzi Msaidizi wa Polisi Zuhura na askari wengine toka kitengo hicho ni utekelezaji wa ahadi aliyoitoa Mkuu huyo wa Polisi wilaya kwa wenyeviti wa mitaa ya halmashauri ya jiji Arusha ya kufanya mikutano na wananchi ili kuimarisha ulinzi ndani ya wilaya ya Arusha.

‘Seven Wonders of Nature’ promoter is no more

The man who has been undertaking the promotion of ‘Seven Wonders of Nature’ in Tanzania, Mr Herman Minja, died last weekend and was buried at his Marangu home village in Moshi rural district, Kilimanjaro region on Saturday.

Of late, Mr Minja, who was also the Managing Director of ‘Minc Company Limited,’ had been encouraging local Tanzanians to vote for the three local entries into Africa’s Seven Natural Wonders of Nature in which 12 features from all over the continent have been enrolled.

Tanzania has fielded Serengeti National Park (Great Wildebeest Migration), the Ngorongoro Crater and Mount Kilimanjaro, the three features that have made it into the top seven in the initial wonders placing.

Through his company, Mr Minja had set up a number of voting booths in Arusha, Kilimanjaro and Dar-es-Salaam in which he would help local residents to cast online votes for the three Tanzanian entries and the efforts have been going on well.

“Most Tanzanians do not have access to computers, let alone the Internet and the voting for ‘Seven Wonders’ must be done online, therefore I have taken the initiative to assist them to vote in our booths free of charge,” Minja once told the media here.
