Homestyle Newsletter Stay home. Stay safe H23APRIL2021omestyle What’s The Best Places to Visit in Zimbabwe Inside My freedom to dare dream Editor's Homestyle Note Hello Many of us are tense wondering just what the rising Covid-19 infections in boarding schools portend. The dreaded third wave appears to be here and that is so not good. But on the bright side, so far what we have in schools is just a spike in confirmed cases with no reports of severe illness or fatalities. Generally, the world over, young people and children seem to fare better with Covid-19 infection and it looks like Zimbabwe is no exception. But that does not mean we should be complacent. No one wants another lockdown. Lockdowns are not just bad for us mentally and emotionally; they are also a major disaster for the economy. So we all need to play our part to keep Covid-19 infections down. Let us continue to follow the WHO recommendations. Let's limit our contacts and keep our distance from the next person as much as possible. And for those at high risk of severe illness, let us get vaccinated soonest. Moving into this week's edition, we continue to celebrate Zimbabwe with a snapshot of some of our awesome resorts. There is no time like the present to enjoy them. With the limited Homestyle numbers, you will get the royal treatment. Team Ride with Exevia Maoneke as he takes us on a journey of his life. Glowing skin is all the rage now.

  • Emeagwali Voted History's 35 Greatest African
    Emeagwali Voted History’s 35 th Greatest African Comment: Emeagwali (third from bottom right) ranked 35th and the greatest African scientist ever . Emeagwali Voted History’s 35 th Greatest African LONDON - Philip Emeagwali was voted the 35th greatest African of all time in a survey for New African magazine, it was announced on August 26, 2004. Emeagwali also ranked as the greatest African scientist ever. The technology category was topped by Imhotep, the multi-genius that designed Egypt's first pyramid. The science category was topped by Emeagwali famed for helping give birth to the supercomputer, the technology that gave rise to the Internet.

The tournament had seen fleeting glimpses of Egypt and Morocco previously, but there was generally a greater familiarity with teams from the north of the continent due to its proximity to Europe, and the fact several players from the region had already migrated to European clubs. Zaire, on the other hand, was far further south than many in the global north would have even been aware of, let alone travelled to, and was certainly an unknown entity as far as football was concerned. However, it isn’t as though they had simply wandered in off the street to compete at the World Cup.

    Seydou Keita: Moja drużyna marzeń AS Roma - Polski Serwis Romanistów - ASRoma.pl - News Pomocnik Giallorossich, Seydou Keita, złożył dla oficjalnej strony Romy swoją jedenastkę marzeń. Nie zabrakło miejsca dla jego byłych kolegów z Barcelony, ale też takich piłkarzy jak Abedi Pele czy George Weah. VICTOR VALDES Grałem z nim cztery lata i mogę tylko powiedzieć, że jest wielkim bramkarzem. Jest naprawdę mocny w grze nogami i zawsze zaliczał świetne występy. Jest bez wątpienia jednym z najlepszych na swojej pozycji. DANI ALVES Gdy tylko przeszedłem z Francji do Hiszpanii, grałem z nim przez rok w Sevilli: jest prawdziwym fenomenem, prawym obrońca, świetnym w grze na całym skrzydle. Wychodzi do środka pola, do ataku, potrafi zdobywać bramki. Jest jednym z najlepszych piłkarzy, z jakimi grałem. FANCO BARESI Gdy byłem mały był wielki Milan, a on pokazywał na boisku swoją elegancję. Środkowy obrońca, który potrafił grać piłką, bardzo inteligentny. Naprawdę mocny, jeden z najlepszych na swojej pozycji. PAOLO MALDINI Piłkarz, który grał do 40 roku życia cały czas w tych samych barwach, który zaczynał na boku, a potem został środkowym obrońcą. Był siłą natury i ma cały mój szacunek. ERIC ABIDAL Mówimy tu o przykładzie walki o życie, miał dwie poważne choroby i pokonał je dzięki swojej sile woli. Wrócił do gry na wysokim poziomie: Barcelona, Monaco i Olympiakos. Co można więcej dodać? Jest fenomenem i przykładem, jako człowiek i piłkarz. Jest dowodem na to, że trzeba walczyć, aby iść do przodu. 1 / 3 Seydou Keita: Moja drużyna marzeń AS Roma - Polski Serwis Romanistów - ASRoma.pl - News ABEDI PELE Mój idol z dzieciństwa, gdy zaczynałem grać w piłkę nożną, był w tym momencie najlepszym piłkarzem w Afryce.

    africa.worldfootballsummit.com CONFERENCE CONCEPT KEY TOPICS 1 - 2 WFS AFRICA 2020 THE LEGACY OF THE 2010 FIFA WORLD CUP IN SOUTH AFRICA In 2010, South Africa became the first African nation to host the FIFA World Cup in a prestigious win for football across the continent. Brin- ging about a sea change from the grassroots to top tier football in va- rious countries, the World Cup has changed the world-view of Africa completely. Ten years later, now the time has come to evaluate how the tournament was organised and the overall legacy that the world’s biggest football competition has left in the country and the continent – both in terms of infrastructures and tourism development, as well as human capital and know-how. IMPLEMENTING DIGITAL CHANGE: THE ONSET OF CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGY IN AFRICAN FOOTBALL A continuous cost decline, the penetration of smartphones and tablets into the market, fan-based content creation, availability of transfer market data and the latest refereeing regulations introduced by FIFA have put technology in the world’s spotlight, let alone the continent of Africa. As the world implements technologies like Video Assistant Referee to performance data analysis and broadcasting production, the same opportunities for African football properties and academies to further develop the game across the continent via technology are now limitless. This begs the question, has the onset of digital trans- formation finally arrived in Africa? KEY TOPICS 3 - 4 WFS AFRICA 2020 KEEPING PAN-AFRICAN COMPETITIONS FRESH: RESHAPING THE CONTINENT’S GAME In a continent with 56 national associations, the Confederation of African Football has always looked to promote the growth of club and national team competitions.
