Back in Moruongor, as the day gets to its hottest, two men shout that the hand-outs have gone all wrong. "The ones who need food most can't fight for it," says one, Losike John D'Porox. "Widows, orphans, they should be fed first." Then everyone else, he asserts, should be enrolled in food-for-work programs, improving the roads, digging water ponds and farming. "That's what can help people," he says - and he may be right. Long-term, WFP's only way out of Karamoja will come when the region is self-sufficient once again. Getting there...
...about to let you in on a secret I've not shared with anyone, not even my nearest and dearest. If I'm going to succumb to that occupational hazard of movie reviewing - the noddies - it's most likely to occur in the hottest and highest-action sequences. I know this is counterintuitive. After all, those are the parts of the movies that are the noisiest and the most visually splashy - all flash cuts and zip pans, encouraging a lot of rapid eye movement.

Spain's finishing was nothing less than exquisite, raising expectations yet again that this will be their year. And Holland, stamping itself as the hottest team of the tournament, showed a little bit of everything in a 3-0 dismantling of Italy that had controversy, luck, skill, star performances and a total team effort...
...having sex. I could audition for Beauty and the Geek, but I was neither beautiful enough to be a beauty nor geeky enough to be a geek. So much for national fame; I couldn’t even make it onto FM’s Fifteen Hottest Freshmen list. As unique as I made myself seem in my college admissions essay, I was way too normal to be famous. And the competition was steep. Tons of students were striving for the same campus-wide fame I was, from UC presidential candidates to world record holders to that kid who wore...
