Hi Skunks, I was trying to flash my Vodafone 845 to install a newer version of android, to be specific Cynanogen 7.0. I already have the Z4 Root Application...and the operating system...I am lacking the ROM manager. Anyone with a site where I can get the ROM manager application other than the android market. regards Stephen. -- My Blog <http://iwanjau.wordpress.com> | @uwanja <https://twitter.com/#%21/uwanja>| Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/swanjau> | This message represents the official view of the voices in my head.

Kenyan pupils second to Mauritius in Maths?
by Laban Mwangi 11 Dec '11

11 Dec '11

http://www.nation.co.ke/News/Kenyan+pupils+top+in+Africa+/-/1056/1286490/-/… There are lies, damn lies and dreamed up numbers being passed as statistics. I think this is the archetypical case of : - Bad sampling - Guessing numbers based on other numbers that ought to be correlated but they aren't (HDI for example). The average standard 8 student would beat the average O level student in Mauritius. An average O level student there wouldn't know what to do with long division or long multiplication .
