"Africa needs Leaders who have good Values"
Signs and symptoms of change are already becoming evident in this beloved motherland, home to almost 1.5 billion people. In Africa, the younger generation now comprises a significant portion of the population, yet they are often governed by leaders who hail from a vastly different era. These leaders, shaped by a time with different challenges and perspectives, may struggle to connect with the aspirations and values of today's youth.

Why drop Meteorites
To date, about 1,100 meteorites have been observed to occur and about 40,000 have been found but not read. It is estimated that perhaps 500 meteorites reach the Earth's surface each year, but fewer than ten are recovered. This is because most fall into the ocean, land in remote areas of the Earth and in places that are not easily accessible or visible. From a model animation, it appears that many small asteroids/large meteors pass close to Earth every day. Most of these remain undetected, but recently, three 5-10 m asteroids have been discovered and passed well within the Moon's orbit. Also, recently, an asteroid with a diameter of about 500 meters passed about 2 million kilometers (five times the distance of the Moon) from Earth. It is estimated that one or two 5-10 meter objects pass through the Moon's orbit every day, and there are perhaps 30 million near-Earth objects! Most of these are too small to cause any harm. Five to ten meters is probably the smallest object that can pass through Earth's atmosphere.

Gold Stars and Losing Streaks
This week marks 26 weeks of consistent writing, a streak that is exactly half a year long. Except it doesn’t. Somehow, between weeks 24 and 26, I missed a deadline or something because even though I published a piece every week- whether it was a poem, an essay, a chapter from my book, or just a little blurb- I got an email saying congratulations on your ONE WEEK STREAK.

Loving This: Reflections on "A Story Every Day" So Far (June Edition)
The Nuts & Bolts As of the last day in June: it's now 182 days in to the yearlong Story Every Day challenge, which started on 1st January. Halfway there, as of 1st July! Still in it! I've posted a short story every day this year so far. My word count for June: 13,726. That's a little less than average for me. It includes all my micros, (sans the authors note), my look back at May, challenge entries, updates on my unofficial Fucked Up Fairytales challenge, musings about the 3am challenge, a recipe, and a review. Stats: My monthly peak at my stats shows that my read count has gone up a bit, but still not at the peak it was a few months ago. Reads: Busted past the 11k mark in June, so there's that. My most-read , most-liked story in June was story #157, "I am Jack's Tumour". It's not actually very well read, or very well-liked; it's on page seven of the stats. Top Stories: Only two this month! Jack's Tumour was the first one, then #172, The Syrup Dream. Sleeping Beauty was published on the 30th, but not made top story until a day or two later, so it should probably be in my July count.
