Kenya: Citizens Dominate Africa Media Awards
Five Kenyans have in the past walked away with the overall prize in the continent-wide journalism competition established 16 years ago.

"The judges elected this story in its category, but also unanimously agreed this was the overall winner of the CNN MultiChoice African Journalist Awards 2011. It is an investigative story about the Al-Shabaab, which brings to the fore an insight view about the militia group, through comprehensive accounts from its own recruits and representatives, as well as through the journalists own experience of a dramatic encounter with armed militiamen in Somalia. Thanks to Fatumas excellent writing skills, the story also emerges an engaging piece of reading," said the judges citation presented to Fatuma by Albert Essien, the group executive director of Ecobanks corporate banking for winning the general news print [detalii...]

Poker: Look after your stack
At the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas, its almost always about the chips ...Im in Las Vegas at last, for the World Series of Poker. Its a bit like arriving late at the Edinburgh Fringe: from one look at a persons face, you can tell if their show is getting good audiences (ie tournament cashes) or no audience (grinding day after day for no financial return). Either way, all the talk is glumly anecdotal about knockouts and bad beats.Generally, people will restrict their story to the exit hand: "My aces were cracked by 89 of hearts!" or "I ran a massive bluff; how could he find kings in that spot? Lucky fish . . ."But this is rarely the whole story. Its natural to want sympathy, but remember to be honest with yourself. The "story" of the tournament is almost always about chips. If someone can afford to call your all-in with 89, or knock you out when you make one mistimed bluff, chances are you let your stack get too low. Did you call too often? Fail to keep an eye on the rising blinds? Make knee-jerk continuation bets on dangerous flops?In the 1000 NLH event, Warren Wooldridge was sitting with 11k in chips - more than double average. Six people limped on his button, so he called along with 79. The flop came 568. They checked to Wooldridge; he bet and got called by the only other player with 11k. The turn was a 4 and (with back-and-forth betting) they got it all in. His opponent held 88 and rivered the full house.That is a true horror story: one huge, sick hand, where fate sets up all the variables to make a knockout unavoidable.But thats unusual. When you tell friends your "bad hand story", always ask yourself quietly: what was the chip story? Thats where youll usually find your lesson for next time.victoriacoren.comPokerWorld Series of PokerVictoria Coren guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

Hackers attack Buttons website
Buttons spokesman condemns distasteful hoax Site had reported driver was in critical conditionA story posted on Jenson Buttons website claiming that he had been seriously injured in a car crash was a "distasteful hoax", his representatives have said.The story emerged on the Formula 1 drivers site last night stating he was in a "critical condition" in hospital following a "serious accident" in Hungary. However, the website was taken down soon after the post emerged, with his spokesman stating it had been the work of an online hacker who had breached its security."The story is completely untrue and is a very distasteful hoax," the McLaren drivers spokesman said. "The website was immediately taken down and its security will now be reviewed."Jenson was asleep in bed when we were made aware that someone had hacked into his site and made the untrue claims. He is still totally oblivious. We can assure people that he is completely fit and healthy and will be taking part in todays race."The hacker posted the story on jensonbutton.com. The drivers representatives were made aware just after 11.30pm on Saturday night.The story read: "Jenson Button, 31, is in a critical condition after being involved in a serious accident. Jenson was taken to Budapests AEK hospital where he is undergoing medical attention.

Uganda: Give Ordinary Peasants a Voice
Politics everywhere tends to be rigged in favour of the powerful. But in Uganda it has been made worse. Last week, the mass media reported that the vast majority of rural Ugandans are at risk of malnutrition, especially in the northern region. It was a simple footnote of a story in New Vision and did not generate much public debate. It "died" immediately after it was published. Yet a story about a verbal duel between the coordinator of intelligence services, Gen. David Tinyefuza and the executive director of Kampala City Council Authority Jennifer Musisi or one between Kampala Mayor Erias Lukwago and Musisi tends to dominate public debate in Uganda, especially in Kampala, all out of proportion to its significance in the lives of most [detalii...]

Uganda: Aids Policy - Evidence, Ideology and the Making of an African Success story
The growing notion that for any policy -including social policy - to be successful it must be evidence based or informed, has been shattered by Ugandas successful story of a largely well controlled and managed HIV and AIDS epidemic. John Kinsman, in this groundbreaking book, which boldly departs from the usual evidence/science-is-supreme flow, argues that Ugandas spectacular ABC (abstinence, behaviour change and condoms) strategy originated from no more than a "hunch". Intrigued by what could actually have guided AIDS control in Uganda, the author investigated a flagship research which was set up in the early days of the epidemic to guide [detalii...]

Risen: The Howard Winstone story - review
Drama about boxer Howard Winstone who fought his way to the top against the odds after an industrial accident. By Phelim ONeillTheres an interesting story here, in the true-life tale of Great Welsh Hope boxer Howard Winstone who fought his way to the top after an industrial accident smashed one of his hands. Unfortunately the film doesnt quite get to grips with it on anything other than a superficial level, seemingly too charmed by the polite, respectful lead character to get down and dirty with any bigger issues, so punches are pulled in the drama.Rating: 2/5DramaPhelim ONeill guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]
