  In an effort to help readers get a little more clarity on issues concerning Africa, I've enlisted the help of Bono. I suppose he can be considered a provocative icon when it comes to African causes, however the trends and results of what he's worked on are positive and pretty much indisputable.  This is certainly not intended to be an "African Gospel according to Bono", but I do hope it helps folks to see that Africa…

We see and hear something about the horrific conditions in Darfur on an almost daily basis. So why do these reports become background noise to us, like the previous day's NHL scores?

  Random thoughts & observations.... Duane "Dog" Chapman's obscenity laced taped phone conversation has unleashed (again) the typical "vultures of talk"; and their deliciously pecking of every maggoty morsel left from his road-killed carrion. Before you pass judgment against the son that likely "ratted him out", consider that there is not much more of a hurt then to be spurned by a parent- except maybe a cheating spouse. As for…
