It was lunchtime in one of Haiti's worst slums, and Charlene Dumas was eating mud. With food prices rising, Haiti's poorest can't afford even a daily plate of rice, and some take desperate measures to fill their bellies. Charlene, 16 with a 1-month-old son, has come to rely on a traditional Haitian remedy for hunger pangs: cook!es made of dried yellow dirt from the country's central plateau.

.............................................................................

"When my mother does not cook anything, I have to eat them three times a day," Charlene said. Her baby, named Woodson, lay still across her lap, looking even thinner than the slim 6 pounds 3 ounces he weighed at birth.

Though she likes their buttery, salty taste, Charlene said the cook!es also give her stomach pains. "When I nurse, the baby sometimes seems colicky too," she said.

나를 위안하기 위해 아래를 자꾸본다.

안타깝다.

According to reports in Zimbabwe's domestic press on Thursday, President Robert Mugabe and delegates to the annual conference of his ruling Zanu-PF Party will chomp their way through 124 cattle, 81 goats and 18 pigs over the course of their deliberations in the central town of Bindura.

Up to 60,000 people in Zimbabwe could become infected with cholera if the epidemic there gets out of control, the World Health Organisation said today.

The United Nations health agency estimates that 589 people have died of cholera in Zimbabwe as of December 5, with 13,960 suspected cases declared, but these figures are based on the number of people reporting to health centres in the poverty-stricken country.

As many health centres are no longer operational, the actual toll is likely to be higher, the WHO said. In a worst-case scenario, up to 60,000 people could become infected. ......................






President Robert Mugabe declared Thursday that there was "no cholera" in Zimbabwe and the country's health crisis was over. (A spokesman later claimed he was being sarcastic.)

Information Minister Sikhanyiso Ndlovu described the disease as part of a "serious biological chemical war ... a genocidal onslaught on the people of Zimbabwe by ... the unrepentant former colonial power [Britain], which has enlisted support from its American and Western allies so that they invade the country."

"The situation is truly grim,"

"One man and his cronies — Robert Mugabe — are holding this country hostage."

the U.S. ambassador to Harare, James McGee said.

Now her children are grown,

and she is ready to move

onto a bigger stage.

  • ROBERT F. KENNEDY JR.,
  • on Caroline Kennedy's interest in the Senate seat being vacated by Hillary Rodham Clinton

1963년 11월 22일

All this will not be finished in the first one hundred days.

Nor will it be finished in the first one thousand days,
nor in the life of this administration, nor even perhaps in our lifetime on this planet.
Now the trumpet summons us again…
as a call to bear the burden of a long twilight struggle, year in and year out…a struggle against the common enemies of man: tyranny, poverty, disease, and war itself.
The energy, the faith,the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country
and all who serve it-and the glow from that fire can truly light the world.
And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.
My fellow citizens of the world:ask not what America will do for you,but what together we can do for the freedom of man.라고

1960년 전 세계를 향하여 외쳤던

한 사람이 총에 쓰러졌다.

어린 남매와 젊은 부인을 두고

총을 쏘았다고 지목 받은 사람은

다시 총에 쓰러지고

그 사람도 다시 총에 쓰러진다.

누가 총을쏘았는지 의심을 품는

그의 동생도 총에 쓰러진다.

누가 왜 그를 죽게 했는지

지금도 논란이다.

영원히 풀지 못할 것이라고 이야기 한다.

그의 딸이 돌아왔다.
