“Indecision and delays are the parents of failure.”- George Canning, British premier, Apr-Aug 1827
I recently stumbled on a fascinating article titled the
Anatomy of Military Incompetence. Its thrust is that failure to make any decision is almost as bad as making a poor decision.
Expressed mathematically, indecision = lousy decision.
The author supports this thesis with a whole platoon of hopeless war generals whose indecisiveness caused disaster, grief, and preventable deaths.
Comparing and contrasting what is worse between making a wrong decision and indecision, Maimonides (a medieval Jewish philosopher and codifier of Jewish law) asserts that the risk of a wrong decision is preferable to what he terms the “terror of indecision”. ....

Talking Blues: A whiff of Chakwera's Valentine Day's bouquet of roses | Malawi Nyasa Times


February 28, 2021

As with all Valentine Days, this year’s day was not uneventful. Covid-19 notwithstanding, a lot happened.

The True Story Behind Viola Davis Character in Ma Rainey s Black Bottom
Kayla Keegan
On December 18, Netflix released the new film
Ma Rainey s Black Bottom, a drama adapted from a play of the same name, written by late Pulitzer-winning playwright
August Wilson. Produced by
Viola Davis, the movie centers around real-life blues pioneer
Gertrude Ma Rainey, on the day that she and her band record a song called Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom.
Watching Viola depict Ma, it s clear the Oscar-winning actress did a lot of preparation to portray the powerful, bawdy, and charismatic singer. Although Viola worried she wouldn t be able to sing well enough to play the iconic Mother of Blues, after reading the script she knew she had to get involved. ....
