Kambas best exemplify the name “Sexy” because, besides being some of the MOST BEAUTIFUL Kenyans,they’re also more famously known for one very little,dirty secret; Kamba’s are beasts in bed. And their women? Oh,they blow up the sheets…. And they’re also fabled to looooooove the D. Woi.

Malaa is as Kamba as they come…And, immediately after leaving KTN,She got married to her Jamaa who,ahem,is Luo.

But No,I will not spoil this moment by posting a photo of the two of them here. We’re way too thirsty to want some guy snuggling up next to something so freakishly hot! Malaa had to kick off this list. Look at that beauty. Bro,Just look at it. Sexy as a fuckin’ devil! Oh Lawd!

Like this two revellers who were spotted in Machakos. Scratch my back and I scratch yours must be their motto.

POSITIVE TRIBALISM: These Are The Top Ten Sexiest LUO Female Celebs In Kenya.

Yesterday,we explored the sexiest KIKUYU Female Celebs in Kenya. And it was fun. Or wasn't it? Of course it was! Judging by just how many of You read that article....And seemed to agree...In the privacy of your,er,bedrooms?

And now,in keeping up with the tradition,Allow me to indulge you some more...Sexually,Ok,not exactly.

We shall now embark on the same road...And this time,shift focus to the Daughters Of The Nile as they are so fondly known as.

The Daughters Of The Nile are those sexy mamacitas who reside in-or originate from-the famous land that produced the indefatigable Raila Odinga,the Powerful Barack Obama,the mythical Luanda Magere and the legendary Tom Mboya. I am talking,the Lakeside. Or Nyanza pacho...

One thing is common with these Luo Nyanza sisters,they're fierce,they're sexy,they're bad,they've got an attitude,they're fearless and they're top on their game. Oh,and who can forget,these mamas got ASS. Original,God-granted Ass...No silicone,Nothin'...Just real,raw meat. Tako si tako....

And now,without further ado,here is the TOP TEN list of the sexiest LUO Female Celebs. And unlike with the KIKUYU list,I had much more fun compiling this one...Cuz ,let's face it,Luos rule tha World...One arrogance at a time! Mayoooooo....

Poof! Here we go...

1. LUPITA NYONG'O

Who better to start off this list than the World-Famous,Award-winning,Record-Breaking,Awe-insipring and stereotype-changing Lupita Nyong'o? Hollywood's current It Girl. And the Hottest thing on the Planet? Two years later?

Lupita is not just the daughter of Kisumu Senator Anyang' Nyong'o but also that girl who won that Oscar and made that history. The Queen Of Catwalks...And the darling of Magazine Covers.

This girl's Kenya's best export to the World. We've not had a better one. And we probably never will. She's incredibly beautiful,fierce,fine as hell,talented,sweet,lovable and hot as a mathafucka! Girl leads! The rest meekly follow. Luo name? Nyong'o.

2. CAROLE ODERO

You won't know just how sexy this mama is until You've met her in person. Sat with her and watched her strut her stuff...As I so gladly have. Ahem. Or,better still,You can pick up that Magazine Healthy Womanand catch her on the cover...slaying it with that body like nobody's business.

Girl's been in the Industry for decades...she's been an Editor at Drum Magazine and edited a billion other magazines now. She's also that fierce,flame-haired mamacita that gets to lampoon fashion criminals on that Citizen TV fashion show alongside mean boy number one,Ian Mbugua.

Carole's not just a sweet soul...But also a  confident,driven,purposeful,zealous and successful media Mogul. And isn't that what sexiness really is about? God bless a sister.

Sexy as phuck! And on that Magazine cover,Girl,Oh Girl,Thou slayed it! Daaaamn!

3. LINDA OGUTTU

She's one of KTN'S hottest things for a minute....And she aint aboutta stop. Not with that ass. Not,Not with it.

Besides being quite the melodious TV host,with the coolest smile,business head,sharp fashion sense and calm demenour,Linda also is tabloid fodder...Cuz Girl cannot stop being in demand. Everyday.

Her biggest reason to be on this list? That sure beauty. And,let's be blunt here,that ass. Nobody's got a better one. And,bro,it's all natural. All natural. Bless the Lord...Oh My Soul. Luo name? Oguttu. Vroom Vroom!

4. TALIA OYANDO

Let's call it like it is...And give credit where it's needed. Talia's not your everyday Radio Host. Besides being a Radio Vet,Talia also is that girl who never ages. Her sexyyyyyy voice has floored jamaas for almost a decade now...Hence why Radio Honchos always put her on Reggae shows...And we know WHO listens to Reggae; Guys.

Talia's God's Gift to Nairobi Men...And from the look of things,and her evergreen Radio shows,the Men are NOT complaining.

She's super sexy,absolutely beautiful,got the voice of a nightingale and the allure of a female Lothario...I am hooked. Just like You. Luo Name? Oyando.

5. JUDY ANYANGO

Well,well,well,what do we have here!!? I am not-and have never been-a fan,follower,admirer or friend of this Mama. No,Never! I'd hate myself after that. But still,that doesn't mean that Cabu Gah's poison cannot be some other guy's dinner. Or does it?

This girl ain't shit to me...But to many men...From Nairobi to Kisumu to Mombasa,she's got it. Yup,she does.

Why,to be blunt...It's because of that ass. And which jamaa doesn't love a good dose of ass on a cold Monday morning? Plus she's sexually provocative...And,even though her weaves are as ugly as a cemetery,still,she pulls them men. And keeps them wanting-and panting-for more. Hands deeply tucked into their boxers...Yes,I said it! Luo name? Anyango.

6.NINA OGOT

She may not be thaaaaat popular...But still,Girl got game! Real game! She's a singer-very talented one,at that-and an actress and a TV host and a million other things. Oh,she's also a killer...Men killer.

She's not controversial,neither is she constantly in the news...But still,she manages to ooze sexiness like sumthin' else. And keep it classy...Beyonce style.

Nina's got the voice of a cherubim,the charm of a shaman and the gift of a seraphim. I would bang her. Anytime. Anywhere....So would the guy sitting next to you as you read this article. Luo name? Ogot.

7. MERCY MYRA

Yes.Yes,Yes,she had to make it to this list! Cuz,guess what,this mama is THE ORIGINAL SEXY MAMA from Luoland. Before all these girls knew how to wrap around a lyric-or a sanitary pad-this girl had been here already. Killin' it,slayin' it,murdering it and deliverin' it. Raw. Real raw.

Mercy's been droppin' it like it's hot for decades now...And even after that hiatus,and lengthy trip to USA,Yes,and that baby,still,Mercy never lost it. She's still got the mojo,the allure,the mighty voice,the skill,the notoriety and the bad girl image. And that body? Hell,it's still fit! And hot! As hell. Girl is a pro. A legend. Hats off! Luo name? Ummm,Myra? Haha.

8. JOYCE OMONDI

Jehovah! This is the BEST OF THEM ALL! Oh,the Best! Yes,she's born again and everything lakini still,isn't she just sexY? Madly sexy? Daaaaamn! She is.

Joyce is my personal favorite. And I could marry her any day,spend the most ridiculous amounts on her and cross heavens to win her. I am madly madly in love with this veeeeery sweet,beautiful,calm,talented,brainy and godly thing! And which man wouldn't want such?

She graduated recently in the USA. And has the best,best,best vocals in the whole Kenyan Gospel Industry. Plus that smile? Lord,save me now! Please!

Joyce is the Queen...But ameokoka...so....let me tone down the thirst. Luo name? Omondeeee

9. AKOTHEE

You probably dunno her. And will die having never known her...Maybe. But still,to her 'legions' of fans,this girl is the shit.

First off,she's as wealthy as hell. Filthy filthy rich. And even though her music's severely horrible-and nauseating-still,that doesn't take away her allure. And her charm. She's bold,fashionable,wealthy,media-savvy,connected,fierce,driven and exciting! And this bitch is a baller! Phuckin' Baller!

She dresses provocatively(Probably to mask her lack of singing talent) and wines and dines with the Richest and The Mightiest. She's the Reigning Queen Of Luo Showbiz. Hapo ni ukweli. Luo name? Akothee...I guess.

10. ADELLE ONYANGO

Adelle's that super gifted Radio Host at Kiss FM...And she's not just a radio head only. She also is a singer. Whose actually recorded some pretty nice shit.

Adelle's also quite the Social Media Queen..With quite the array of devoted internet fans who follow her religiously. Her fashion sense is out-of-this-world. And she isn't afraid to confront her haters and detractors. And is also not shy to speak about her past,embrace herself,love herself,accept her foibles and even laugh at herself where need be.

And that,to me,is sexy. Plus she's tall...And brainy. Doesnt that add to her already very decorated sexiness hat?

Willy Paul even wanted to date her. Badly....Ok,Willy Paul is no Vin Diesel but still,he counts,right? Adelle's fierce..And hot...And sexy...And winning! Luo name? Onyango.

The murder that gripped the world

The strangled body of Hae Min Lee lay buried in a shallow woodland grave for almost four weeks before a passing stranger discovered it. Smart, sporty, beautiful and popular, the 18 year old had disappeared on January 13, 1999, sending shockwaves through the community of Woodlawn, Baltimore, US.

A few days after her remains were found, an anonymous phone call to police pointed the finger at Hae’s ex-boyfriend, Adnan Syed. He was 17 and, like Hae, a senior at Woodlawn High School. Police interviews led them to a friend of Adnan’s called Jay Wilds, who claimed Adnan had confessed to him that he’d murdered Hae.

Despite Adnan’s protestations of innocence, in February 2000 he was found guilty of first-degree murder and sentenced to life plus 30 years in prison. Apart from the grief of Hae’s heartbroken family and friends, the murder was all but forgotten. Case closed.

Until last year, that is, when Adnan’s friend, lawyer Rabia Chaudry, contacted American journalist Sarah Koenig and asked her to look into it. The result was a podcast that investigated the murder in 12 weekly episodes – and swiftly became a worldwide phenomenon that has now been downloaded an incredible 84 million times.

Booth Middle School robotics team wins Lego U.S. Open

Overcoming long odds, the World Class Warriors, comprised of six 7th- and 8th-grade students from J.C. Booth Middle School in Peachtree City scored the historic victory in only the second year of the middle school robotics program’s existence.

In a story worthy of a television special, the team persevered after the first two of three robotics rounds ended in disaster.

On the first run, their robot, dubbed “Shoebox,” had a system crash and scored only 75 points out of a possible 857.

With two rounds left, the team did not despair, but rather got to work re-installing all the system programs. The second run was going along beautifully until disaster struck late, limiting their score to just 390 points.

With only one round left a Korean team named “Best Core” had a commanding lead with 750 points.

With only one hour between the second and third round the team could only make minor tweaks to the pneumatic system that had failed in round 2 and limited their score.

The team was comprised of Robbie, Jacqui and Caitlin Van Zyl along with Samuel Liu, Parker Korn and Owen Henahan.

As a First Lego League team, the robot performance is a critical component of success, but not enough to ensure victory. The other critical elements are Core Values and a research project designed to provide a solution to a social problem.

Core Values include Gracious Professionalism, “Coopertition”, Integration, Inclusion, Discovery and Having Fun! The team created a presentation to demonstrate how they incorporated those values into their team that was presented to the judges.

This year’s project was to come up a solution to student disengagement. The team built a solution called “Braingagement,” that used the latest in neuroscience and technology.

They interviewed Columbia neuroscientist Josh Davis, Ph.D., researched the literature on why video games are so engaging and then crafted a solution that took elements of both into a new way of engaging all students in learning and providing individualized feedback to students to strengthen weak areas.

The team achieved very high scores in the Core Values, Project and robot design presentations, but without a good robot score, there would be no chance of high finish overall.

On the final run, the two robot controllers, Robbie and Caitlin Van Zyl, manned the obstacle course table preparing to give the robot run a last shot.

At right, the winning robotic project, “Shoebox.” Photo/Submitted.

Their robot “Shoebox” had to navigate a series of challenges that involved speed, precision and efficiency to achieve a high score. As the clock ticked down to the start of the final round they prepared Shoebox and hoped all their hard work would finally pay off on the table.

Shoebox performed flawlessly earning the team the high score in the competition with a 763.

At the awards presentation, the team was awarded the trophy for best robot performance and then waited anxiously to see if their performance in the other areas were enough to win the overall.

When the announcement came of the team’s overall victory, they and their coaches celebrated with the hundreds of others that had participated in the 2015 FLL US Open at Legoland in California.

The World Class Warriors are the first-ever winners of the competition from Georgia. They could not have done it without their coaches and sponsors. Special thanks to Coach Jason Bingle, assistant coaches Gerrie and Kathy Van Zyl and the sponsors, Yamaha, Chick Fil-A, Panasonic and Hella.

Below, the Booth robotics team with its Lego winners’ trophies.
