Now that I am back to swinging a Line [When you are a Trader and the
markets are like that Golf Course I once played on in Arizona - green
and yours - then you have to pounce when the opportunity allows] I
like [and need] my Hannah's blessing and her smile. Last Night I got
home and asked
''Where is my Hannah?''

Hannah Horseriding at @FairmontMtKenya Africa |
And her Mother said ''Don't You know she is at the School Disco.''
And when she came home she was so flush in the Face and I just sat
down and watched her. You know those times when we were all a lot
younger and we might have gone out and had a Great Gatsby like party
“There was music from my neighbor’s house through the summer nights.
In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the
whisperings and the champagne and the stars.”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby
“For a transitory enchanted moment man must have held his breath in
the presence of this continent, compelled into an aesthetic
contemplation he neither understood nor desired, face to face for the
last time in history with something commensurate to his capacity for
wonder.”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby
And the Girls' cheeks are flushed and everything is possible.
Well thats the Face she had and it was a pleasure to just bask in its glow.

China's Navy to Send More Ships to the Indian Ocean H/T @Kimiri_Stephen Law & Politics |
During a press conference on January 29, a spokesperson of the Chinese
Ministry of National Defense (MND), announced that China will step up
its deployment of a range of warships in the Indian Ocean. IHS Jane’s
reports that Senior Colonel Yang Yujun, after being asked a question
on PLAN submarine movements in the Indian Ocean, tried to downplay
Chinese naval activities in the region, characterizing them as
“normal” and emphasizing that “there is no need to read too much into
them.”
“[T]he Chinese military has sent various kinds of naval ships to the
Gulf of Aden and the waters off the Somali coast to conduct escort
missions since 2008. And in the process, we have notified relevant
countries of the escort missions of the PLA naval ships, including the
PLA naval submarines,” Yang said in his remarks. “In the future, the
Chinese military will send different kinds of naval ships to take part
in the naval escort missions in accordance with the situation and the
requirement to fulfill the task.”
The presence of Chinese submarine forces in the ocean has the other
great regional power, India, worried. Indian military officers have
stated that the deployment of nuclear subs would cross a redline and
trigger a naval arms race.
As my colleague Shannon Tiezzi pointed out this morning, many Indian
and Western analysts believe that China is pursuing a clear-cut
long-term naval strategy to dominate the Indian Ocean. In 2005, the
U.S. consulting firm Booz Allen Hamilton came up with the “string of
pearls” hypothesis, which posits that China will try to expand its
naval presence by building civilian maritime infrastructure along the
Indian Ocean periphery. Those ports in turn could be put to dual use
eventually and serve as naval ports for ships of the PLAN.

U.S. envoy urges Congo to set date for presidential election Africa |
Democratic Republic of Congo should promptly set a date for a
presidential election in 2016, a senior U.S. envoy said on Monday,
increasing international pressure on President Joseph Kabila to step
down at the polls next year.
Last month, street protests killed 42 people and forced lawmakers to
drop an electoral reform bill the opposition said was aimed at keeping
Kabila in power.
The attention has now shifted to the National Independent Electoral
Commission (CENI) which has yet to set a date for the election.
"We would like to see that global calendar as soon as possible,
including in particular the confirmation that the presidential
election will be held before the end of 2016," the U.S. special envoy
to Africa's Great Lakes region Russ Feingold said.

10-NOV-2014 Ouagadougou's Signal to Sub-Saharan Africa Africa |
The tipping point for this accelerated sequence of events was
President Compaoré stacking parliament in order to extend the
presidential term limit. There are plenty of African presidents who
are seeking to pull off the same magic trick and events in Ouagadougou
have surely put them on notice.
