You Tube effect





I am sure every time you see the Julius Yego ad “I am the You Tube athlete” (You Tube man) you wonder what on earth he was thinking to start something like that on You tube. What will make you even wonder more is how many more people launched or were even propelled in their careers by using You Tube. PYS is now the all-time You Tube Superstar; his song “Gangnam style” made him famous as it the hit surpass 1 billion mark view on the same platform You Tube. Now with his new single-Gentleman launched this year is also breaking record on “22 plus million views in less than day” on You Tube’s press release last month. And the best of all who knew Justin Bieber was made from You Tube to concur the world if it wasn’t for his You Tube videos that made Talent manager Scooter Braun to make move on him and actually sign him. That was in 2008 then with that unique boyish hairdo that made waves in Youtube.
A side from entertainment there is the ‘Khan Academy’.  Khan offers over 1,400 tutorials, teaching about everything from Math and finance, to physics, chemistry and biology. So with videos like the Khan academy on You Tube all you need internet access and you’re in class.
The You Tube revolution is pretty incredible from making the world smaller by travelling by just the click of a single button. It takes things a step further on learning about places and cultures around the world from the actual people that live there. Not forgetting the platform for spreading truth and inciting change, posting videos to the world on first-hand what is going on countries happenings.  As to the revolt that sprang up and swept the Arab world demonstrating about their civil issues; You Tube was used very much.

THE VOTE FOR THE MPS


The mpigs on spotlight during the famous parliament demos....


We did wake up early in the morning to vote for them 4th march 2013 you remember yeah right. When the Majority leader made one of the most irresponsible statements I have ever heard that they are the representation of the people and that by asking for the raise they do so in condition it was the people indirectly. What popped in my mind and for sure should also to you WE HAD MADE one grave mistake. The same crop of leaders but different timing. The same game but different faces. To make it worse they are even openly disregarding the salaries commission, the Activist and pleas of Kenyans at large. Am not against them for claiming what they say it’s their rightful position to earn such a handsome sum. As per this week’s motion on their salaries which without a doubt will sail through and enacting new faces in the SRC you will witness one unique spectacle where all the MPs from both divides speaking in one voice. All could have been avoided if we had taken our voting rights a bit more seriously and keenly. Than making all these noise and doing demos about how greedy they are. How many would really ascertain that they made out what all these politicians had in their manifestos.
But on the presidential front we did make some strides the debate; the manifestos were questioned, personal wealth declared. I hope these could be applied to not only MPs, Senators as per the order.  To really scrutinize the leaders we are electing in all these capacities.

The Rise and Rise of Seasons/Series

Ever heard of Vampire Dairies, Nikita, The unit, Spartacus, Client list, Two and half men, Desperate housewives, Dallas, White-collar, Heroes, Lost, 24, Prison break of course yesss you have! Now try to remember what first series that you really got to you and you started to follow. For me I do I think it was ‘Watch over me’ when still being aired in the oldest TV station. It had this thriller, suspense and Love triangle that just made look forward to it back in the day. Then it came ‘How I met your Mother’ and not forgetting ‘House MD’ and ‘Scrubs’ those had comical, drama effect that got to me even more. Back then who thought you could find it on DVD. Bless him who thought of that idea, because I bet we couldn’t have accessed most of them. So truly what interests guys to be avid followers?  Mystical monster, supernatural and urban legend thriller stories which carry powerful magical sense. It carries most of the fan bases you name it Vampire dairies, Heroes, Secret circle, teen wolf. To them there is more than that their Love triangle, mostly all Series have.
 
 
 Then the spy stuff, you know those CIA, underground Secret government intelligence arms, conspiracy written all over. In these subject I don’t think it will ever boring cause their all kind of have conspiracy that are so infectious that always put you to wonder if it’s really fiction or real life every time. But they have rather real possible real life acts expect for a few. As a true fan I can’t get enough of these. For the golden era, those brave and mighty who were portrayed in history and made wondrous contribution to the world based on the historical myths and legends. You know the Greek and English ones just mention Spartacus, Game of Thrones or Rome and it clicks.
 

The rest falls under comedy, drama.... These are the once you can sit back and relax. Most of the time doesn’t have very very complicated to understand scripts which you can actually follow without that much keen concentration. Though not all, but do sure have clean views no nasty action packed. With all these going on our Tellys’ no one shouldn’t really wonder a lot why spend so much time watching and drooling on them. How else can you explain the addictive and infectious nature to watch watch and continue watching? On DVD comes with the advantage of pausing and viewing at your convenience, so take walk for a break and don’t forget your chores because the seasons premiers and finales are here to stay.

MEDIA ROLE REVIEW

There are always two sides on the coin, the bad and the good. What role do the media play if I may ask in your life? Does is it always affect you positively or negatively? How will life be without media? By answering those questions you may really wonder how life without will be, quite unbearable haah. In 2008 most guys know that media played one major role in propelling ethnic tension but who so far graded this year’s media role. I would say it ensured one peaceful election and transition despite (which was quite a breather) some hullabaloo of here and there. I guess they learned from their past mistakes. This goes as the Standard Media winning an International award for launching a Peace initiative early this year.  So with all badness that comes with media I would say if life is much better having media. Just the other day Nairobi governor acted on K24’s expose’ on how Nairobians are harassed and beaten in the night by the Kanjo officers. So apart from entertainment, information, notification and not forgeting the educativeness its all about us we are the real media we digest and create those stories so without us where will the media be. The media is the direct mirror of the community at large, all the stories they run all comes from us then back to us. With rapid rate the media is growing means we to are growing and our hunger information fuels the media to be at par with our requirements and remain relevant.
I for sure appreciate the role of the media, it’s critical and with the freedom it comes with it then it one good time to be a Kenyan privileged with the media’s role.

Movie - JURASSIC PARK 3D



In his mind he says the movie was shot in 3D, it’s only the technology that didn’t allow. Directed by Steven Spielberg Jurassic park 3D is a reproduction of the mid 90's sequel. The Dinosaurs are much bigger and better at least that’s what I have heard.  The ways Spielberg is so passionate about the Dinosaur movie and with his trademark fine and detailed its worth going back and relive the past creation. For those near theaters it was made for theater.

Movie - FAST & FURIOUS 6




Curtains once again are raised as Dwayne Johnson teams with Vin diesel. Dwayne Johnson didn’t have to save or reignite this franchise (which is becoming his specialty); he was brought in to make the enduring and morally ambiguous adventures of Dominic Torreto and Brian O'Conner even more appealing to worldwide audiences. And that certainly worked, as Fast & Furious 5's all-world box-office tally can attest. Elsewhere, we are anticipating the soap opera-like narrative device that will bring Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) back into the story. And we're wondering if we'll get to see a sequel to Seth Rogen and Andy Sandberg's hysterical parody of the series

AFC’S FIRST WIN

So AFC recorded their first win, pheew what a relief.  Being under pressure from the heavy investment and with a new foreign coach was a really not a good time to be an AFC Leopards supporter. The implications of maybe if they lost the march were maybe they would fire coach then the Technical bench. Not mentioning that elections were near so soaking up even more pressure to the incumbent Board. The win was deserved as of late AFC was playing pretty nice football.

LAST SATURDAY JAM



On every Saturday when you spend time in the house and flip the remote from mid-morning to afternoon you will be rocked by all kinds of music in all TV stations. Some stations even go further to make it funky by bringing on artist for interviews, places to have fun and hot entertainment news. This particular Saturday Prezzo was being interviewed which all you know his got ‘swag’ and with latest hits banging. What was intriguing he refused to leave the interview and went along and forced to be one of the presenters? In due process forced one of the presenters to back out and leave. That’s the King of Bling normal controversial day as he even went ahead to even to offer to pay the bills for not to have commercial breaks. Who else can do that?
