I’m having a bad week

Telkom Wireless Privacy

Well, it seems like Telkom reserves the right to use personal data it collects about its clients or possibly even share(they do NOT expressly say otherwise) it for whatever they deem as “marketing and research related activities”.

Geez, the guys will/are going to keep actual records of calls/sms’s/data! I haven’t had a look at Celtel’s and Safcom’s yet buy after seeing this, its about time I begun scanning the fine-print for this nonsense.

NCC: same old, same old

Monday, 2:00 AM:
Six men, four of them in AP uniforms walk up to the guards at City Hall and introduce themselves as police officers on patrol. They proceed to tie them up and, working for hours with a welding machine, manage to gain entry into the cash office and open three safes. They to get away with the deputy mayors mace, chain, 15,000 in cash, 185,000 in cheques and a computer’s CPU. CCTV cameras in the cash office have been out of order for some time.

Tuesday:
Town clerk John Gakuo announces that although investigations are underway, the council will be tendering for a replacement chain and mace and that council business will continue as usual despite the absence of these key ceremonial items.

Hmmmmm, the investigators have barely locked onto the scent and they’re already talking about replacements! I wonder who stands to benefit from the council’s ‘excellent’ tendering process?

As with all council affairs, this one smells of a rat. However, now the rot seems to be even more blatant with time.

feed icon that sounds kenyan

A couple of weeks back I decided to get an icon/flag/badge/something for the kenyan blogs I have on my aggregator and this is what I came up with(I’d tried this on the standard feed icon and it just looked wierd). I don’t have mad ‘photoshop-etc’ skills but I am proud of this and hey, what are blogs for if not for sharing?

Hash suggested having it in a zip file in different sizes; now that’s a neat idea. I put the standard 128×128 thru to 16×16 andfor anything else the orginal SVG file is also in the zip.

Do improve on this if you can.
cheers
