More Lesotho on the BBC

For those of you who don't have the BBC Africa page bookmarked (and I am in that category as well), they have updated some of their stories from St. Rodrigue, Lesotho--which is the community where I taught high school in 2002. It is a story about how people in rural Lesotho are coping with the HIV/AIDS crisis. It is extremely well written, dare I say beautiful. The link below takes you to the story of a primary school teacher. The other links are on the right side of the page. Only the first four have been updated since the first time I posted this link, but if you haven't checked them all out, please do so.

Stay well.

Hi John! I just read the BBC article. I love how it captures people's real voices and feelings, not an outside perspective or a polished and edited position. Thanks very much for your blog. It helps me stay connected to Lesotho!

Hope you're well,

Penny stocks said...

I have a web site where I give advise on penny stocks and stocks under five dollars. I have many years of experience with these type of stocks. If theirs anyone interested in these type of stocks you can check out my web site by just clicking Penny stocks. I would like to comment about the future of the stock market theirs always bargains in the stock market you just have to be willing to take the time to find them. Speaking of stocks under one dollar that worked out for me. I recently sold my shares in vonage holdings corporation for 5 dollars. I bought the shares in 2009 for 37 cents. This was a rare exception to the general rule most of the stocks trading under 1 dollar are not good investments. The way that you find low priced stocks that are worthy investments is to have as much knowledge and experience as possible about these type of securities. Only than can you profit tremendously from these stocks.
