empty sky: Marriage in Malawi
http://hawk-emptysky.blogspot.com/2015/02/marriage-in-malawi.html
Humanitarian aid. Africa. Food Security. Friday, 20 February 2015. So, Malawi has finally managed. To change an outdated law that allowed girls to be married at 15 with parental consent (H/T DAWNS Digest. This seems to be a good thing - although lawmakers who think. Regulating marriage age is going to solve HIV in Malawi is a little worrying. However, there seems to be a backlash. Wait, it's not what you think; traditional leaders oppose the bill because they think 18 is too young. Marc F. Bellemare.

NICK HAUS: I love winter --
http://www.nickhaus.com/2013/01/i-love-winter.html
I love winter -. But not the dismal slushy mess we've had most of the last week. Why not have some lovely snow instead? I really like that it's been colder today. Send more of this, posthaste. I was photographing a few vases in the Little House (which is not heated; it was lovely and frigid in a way that I perversely enjoy), and I needed some flowers to demonstrate scale and use. These pathetic posies were the best thing my frozen garden could produce:. Jane and Lance Hattatt. We have found you quite by ...

NICK HAUS: January 2012
http://www.nickhaus.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
It's been quiet over here, but I'll get you caught up in the next few weeks. I had the great pleasure to spend the beginning of January in Colombia for my godson's christening - both the people and the place were as lovely as I recalled. Truly a great trip. Heliconias sent as a gift from my godson's grandfather, cut straight from the jungle and propped before the entrance to the chapel where he was baptized:. The interior, with Bonnie (surrogate mother) lurking in the flowers:. Okay, ya got me, it's not ...

RIP Agnes Heywood, Dear Grandmother. My dear grandmother, Agnes Kathryn Heywood nee Weiler, died Tuesday at noon. In infancy she survived a bomb blast intended to kill her entire family in Cheyenne, Wyoming, but was ultimately taken down by age. She was 97. In some ways I am like her, but not enough.

NICK HAUS: May 2012
http://www.nickhaus.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
I couldn't have said it better myself. Mr Sendak was at his finest a shtetl Blake, portraying a luminous world, at once lovely and dreadful, suspended between wakefulness and dreaming. In so doing, he was able to convey both the propulsive abandon and the pervasive melancholy of children’s interior lives." here. I hemmed and hawed and finally pulled about 50 thistles from the lawn, but got lazy and left the ones nearest to the fence for another day; this morning, they looked like this:. An Apple a Day.

empty sky: Ethics and Innovation
http://hawk-emptysky.blogspot.com/2015/07/ethics-and-innovation.html
Humanitarian aid. Africa. Food Security. Sunday, 19 July 2015. Because when was the last time we really though about ethical principles in terms of the work? I don't care. When I sat, trying to decide if I wanted to share these principles with my colleagues (not wanting to upset delicate balances or sensitive people), it was the moment I realised how far our sector may have strayed and how much I want to get back to ethics, not just in innovation but in all aspects of what we do.
