double the fun
Pop Quiz: What do these two people have in common?
1. They’re both rock stars?
2. They’re both trendsetters?
or, 3. They have the same birthday?
Although #1 and #2 are debatable, #3 is definitely true.
so…HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Mick Jagger and Taylor Momsen!
And even though the two are exactly 50 years apart, we predict both will be attending a pretty fun bash tonight.

Iconic Photo: Food Theft
In 1998, yielding to the international pressure, the Sudanese government allowed good aid to be distributed to the south. British photojournalist Tom Stoddart travelled with Medicins Sans Frontieres (MSF) to a camp in Ajiep, where more than 100 people were dying every day. There he took the above photo of a crippled boy who had queued hours for food, only to find it robbed away from him by a fit man who strides confidently away.
Stoddart received overwhelming criticism for his image, people demanding why he did not intervene. He responded, “I am a photographer, not a policeman or an aid worker. All I can do is try to tell the truth as I see it with my camera.” However, Stoddart requested that the papers that print his Sudan photos run the credit card hotlines of aid agencies next to the photos. On the day the above photo appeared in the Guardian, MSF had 700 calls and £40,000 was pledged. The Daily Express raised £500,000. Le Figaro ran 10 pages of his pictures,Stern magazine nine pages.
On a deeper level, the photo is a symbol of Africa’s continuing problem — the big man with the stick rules. Large amount of food aid disappears from the camps in much needed areas and appears for sale in the market places in neighboring countries. Not to be anecdotal but I once volunteered in an African country that should remain nameless. Food and medical aid that Western governments sent there were regularly pilfered by corrupt bureaucrats and sometimes aid is withheld or rediverted to areas that don’t need them because the governments there like to use foreign aid as a bargaining chip to subdue/cleanse tribes and ethnicities they don’t like. Yet, Western governments and aid agencies continue sending aid because sometimes getting a little aid to affected areas is better than cutting off aid.
Sad.

Oh, Rosie!
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (right), as you all know replaced Megan Fox in the third Transformers. She has an unusual beauty about her, I like it. And those lips, jeeeez. Will she replace Megan's status as the msot desirable woman? Who knows. However, it's only looks that matters when it comes to being the girl on Transformers movies, so whatever. She'll do fine, I reckon.
