Things seem to be going from bad to worse for the six officials of a French non-governmental organization charged with attempted kidnapping in Chad, following their Oct. 25 arrest while trying to airlift 103 children they claimed were Darfur orphans. A total of 16 European nationals will stand trial for involvement in a case that Chadian authorities initially condemned as an illegal money-for-adoption scheme praying on child refugees from war-torn Darfur. If convicted, the six French child aid workers could face 20 years of hard labor in the bizarre affair - which has created an atmosphere...

It is not excusable, but it is understandable for an achiever to fall into a trap...

Where the original had a basketball dance number, the sequel has I Don't Dance, a baseball/hoofing showdown between Sharpay's fey brother Ryan (Lucas Grabeel) and athlete Chad (Corbin Bleu). (The double entendres--"I'll show you how I swing!"--re unavoidable, if unintentional.) The whole production is as blindingly art-directed as a sixth-grader's backpack--Lava Springs looks as if it's made out of chunks of sweet-and-sour chicken, and Sharpay pulls...
