Who became President in a.

molly in monrovia: a response to "world's worst places"
http://mollyinmonrovia.blogspot.com/2012/01/response-to-worlds-worst-places.html
Monday, January 23, 2012. A response to "world's worst places". West point from the ducor roof. When i first saw morovia at #5 in recently published gadling blog post, “world’s worst places: top ten places you do not want to visit in 2012 ”. I indulged a moment of gloating… take THAT, friends in kinshasa. I am SO MUCH TOUGHER than I was six months ago in kathmandu. Blush and christ on a cracker…the vice guide to liberia is “great”? No no it’s not. On the huff po travel blog? Food safety in glass houses.

molly in monrovia: 30/1/2012: Links
http://mollyinmonrovia.blogspot.com/2012/01/3012012-links.html
Monday, January 30, 2012. These are some links i've liked over the past month (sorry if they're a little outdated, i don't get a lot of internet leisure time):. Liberia's security will not be at risk. As she leaves, the UNMIL SRSG, Ellen Loj, says that the international community will continue to stand by liberia, and cites the improvement of security sector as major remaining priority. while not groundbreaking news, certainly, it is vaguely reassuring, i guess?
