For some, it's called Lake Natron. For others, it's called 'The Lake That Turns Animals Into Stone'. And for this flamingo that tried swimming across the 12-by-30 mile Tanzanian lake, 'turn into stone' is exactly what happened. A thread on the most dangerous lake in the world:

Mt. Kenya under the stars. Due to its location along the equator, Mt. Kenya offers great views of both Northern and Southern hemisphere skies. The mountain could be a potentially great site for astro-tourism.

My outgoing governor, Granton Samboja, has just launched a 'fully equipped mechanical engineering workshop' at a youth polytechnic in my village. A poorly built 10m by 10m classroom with plastic chairs, some old tables, scrap radiators and car parts, cups, plates, and spices.

Sub-Saharan Africa has lowest (almost stagnant) Agricultural productivity in the world, way below world's average. It's not surprising therefore that Sub-Saharan Africa is World's most food insecure region despite having largest proportion of workforce engaged in agriculture.
