There are 32 cuca shops in Tsumkwe. In the whole of the Odjozondjupa region, formerly Eastern Bushmanland, in north-eastern Namibia, there are only three other shops. In the desert town of Tsumkwe, "cuca shop" is local
\nslang for a drinking house.
\n
\n"The Ju/'hoansi have the highest murder rate of any people in Namibia, and it is not because they are naturally like that," says, Ruud Klep, tourism advisor to the Nyae Nyae conservancy in which many of the local indigenous San people, the Ju/'hoansi, now live. "They are naturally a peaceful people. It is the alcohol that causes it."
\n
\n"The day after pay day, you can forget it, there are no workers," says Arno
\nOosthuysen, owner of Tsumkwe Lodge, one of the few businesses in the dusty
\ntown. The people are all in the cuca shops. "People have no work attitude," says Oosthuysen. "These people have had everything for free up to now, they don't have to work because aid agencies will just
\nbail them out."
\n
\nThis is the crisis the Ju/'hoansi San people find themselves in at the beginning of a new century, a crisis brought on by the impact of the modern market-economy on a traditional hunter/gatherer existence. Up until 40 years ago, the Ju/'hoansi were nomadic people successfully eking out an existence in the vast reaches of the Kalahari desert which forms the border between Namibia and Botswana in southern Africa. Sadly, it has, more often than not, been the very programmes designed to help them, that have led them into the crisis.
\n
\nN/ann!ao Kiewet is chairman of the Nyae Nyae Farmers Co-operative (NNFC) the only body in the region which gives the Ju/'hoansi any collective representation. He says the traditional lifestyle began to disintegrate in
\nthe 1960's when the commissioner of the area decided to bring about 900
\nmembers of the various bands of Ju/'hoansi from their hunting/gathering areas into Tsumkwe, not far from the Botswanan border, so they could be educated and learn to farm. Moving

FEATURE - 1957: Hüte für Gentlemen bei Lock's in London
Lock's - The Hat Shop
There are exclusive shops in most of the world's great cities , but in few cities are the most exclusive quite like those of London . It would be almost true to say that the more exclusive a London shop , the less impressive it is from outside . Many of them , particularly those around St . James's - '' Club Land '' - in the West End , look more like well - preserved pawn - brokers ' establishments in dock area . One such is Lock's the Hatter's . From the street , the shop looks like a relic , slowly design from lack of custom . There is no bustle , no neon, and certainly there's never a queue ; yet it is to Lock's that the Duke of Windsor , the Duke of Edinburgh , the Duke of Norfolk , Sir Anthony Eden , and most of the names from Debrett come for their headgear .
Picture shows:- .... The hat is dried off ; when dry it will retain the shape imposed upon it by the block .

THIS ISN'T A ' PIPE DREAM ' -
The girls really are handing out pipes and tobacco (specially blended for discerning customers) in a New York store. They are Wilke sisters, Anna and Louisa, now efficiently run the New York tobacco business founded by their grandfather in 1872. Since her own father had no sons, he told his daughter's the secrets of pipe making and tobacco blending. Fruits of their studies are shown in their morning mail - practically every day orders arrived for the special pipes, some with specifications and blueprints detailing manufacture. The sisters, ably assisted by a master craftsman, fulfil every order. in the shop they have racks of pipes ranging in price from £1-£100.
Besides this, the girls have developed their own tobacco blends, and they have a card index listing the personal preferences of 15,000 customers , including F.B.I.chief Herbert Hoover.

No swimming, no surfing: how a summer of sewage is ruining the British seaside day out.
Red flags are going up on beaches from Scarborough to Whitstable as pollution levels soar and businesses are forced to close due to sewage discharges.
Yorkshire Water says it has spent more than £100m in recent years improving local processing facilities.
Meanwhile, the sewage keeps coming. A massive discharge near Blackpool on Tuesday comes after 69,000 such events last year across the UK’s north-west from United Utilities. Yet the company still found the money to pay £300m in dividends to shareholders.

Revealed: the 'shocking' levels of toxic lead in Chicago tap water
Tests performed for thousands of Chicago residents found lead, a neurotoxic metal, in amounts far exceeding the federal standards.
One in 20 tap water tests performed for thousands of Chicago residents found lead, a neurotoxic metal, at or above US government limits, according to a Guardian analysis of a City of Chicago data trove.
And one-third had more lead than is permitted in bottled water.
This means that out of the 24,000 tests, approximately 1,000 homes had lead exceeding federal standards. Experts and locals say these results raise broader concerns, because there are an estimated 400,000 lead pipes supplying water to homes in the city, and the vast majority were not tested as part of the program.
The Guardian worked with water engineer Elin Betanzo - who helped uncover the Flint water crisis that resulted in many, mostly Black residents being poisoned by lead in the Michigan city - to review the results of water tests conducted for Chicago residents between 2016 and 2021.
A line of homes in Chicago’s Northside neighborhood of Belmont Cragin on August 25, 2022. Belmont Cragin is home to many Latino families, many of the homes have lead service lines leading into their home, resulting in high levels of lead in their water.
