Now, with the KNEC website down and the SMS 5052 not even answering a single query, what is the way forward? Who is hosting the website? Who is the SMS provider? Both must be charged with sabotage! -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Damn!!

Adios Khushwant Singh (Khush)
by David Kiania | Asentric Consulting Ltd 28 Dec '10

It's with heaviness of heart that I pay tribute to Khushwant Singh (http://facebook.com/Khush1Singh) a man I had the privilege of working with at ISP Kenya and KDN. He was a dedicated and committed Techie who taught as much as he learned. On a personal note, he showed me how to connect to a Cisco Router, Colour Coding of cables and many other techie competencies, which I have kept to this day. His skills were unquestionable and he leaves a many clients and friends saddened by his departure. For as many as know him join me in paying tribute to him and prayer for his parents who are still in hospital and have to deal with the loss of their children. Adios Khush you lived your life well and thank you for giving your best!

As I make that gentle progress towards silverlight, I'd like to ask any fellow programmers if they have done any work on the subject and could suggest any links. Rgds.
