Here is a collection of thoughts and experiences collected from my recent trip. There has been widespread civil war in Uganda from voer 20 years. The LRA (Lord's Resistance Army) travel though the Ugandan bush plundering villages and taking young children to raise in the army. The civilians fear the LRA, so they cluster together in camps for protection, sometimes 50,000 strong. Back to top

FISH: Local Music Review
The Sunday Telegraph described them 'as handsome and composed as catwalk models'. Their latest song writing has been labelled 'talented, clean, and confident.' They came second in the national XFM Rock School competition. And unlike so many bands of their age, they don't sound like they came straight out of their parent's dirty garage.Raising The Smoking Age from 16 to 18
You may have already heard that the government will be raising the smoking age to 18 in England and Wales. It has been said that the new age limit would come into effect from October 1st.Back to top

Emo, Goth, Grunger. We've all heard, and probably been called these at some point but does anyone actually know what it means anymore? Has the unique individuality of rock turned into a desperate attempt to fit in and look "cool"? A fair amountof others and I have always seen people dressing differently as a sign of their individuality and a statement of who they are with themselves. It now seems however that the whole point of weird and wonderful fashions has disappeared. Back to top

Every magazine meeting, the group split into two teams and have a debate on any topic we like. One week we decided to have a debate on Tim Westwood. We discussed our thoughts and views about his career, but then realised that we didn't really know that much about him. We then decided we would try and get an interview with him to get to know him a bit more and we did! Back to top

Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus
Humans are split into two species, male/female or man and woman. When studying other species, e.g. rabbits and lions, we take it for granted that this phenomenon will account for two very different organisms that will behave and often appear very different from one another.Do They Even Care?
OK lets start with the facts. Since the American army invaded Iraq in March 2003, about 100,000 Iraqi civilians have died due to the war. And that number has been rising rapidly. The war has cost America around the margin of 200 to 250 billion dollars since the invasion and who knows when the killing and spending will stop.Back to top

Cummon guys and girls, there's no point even trying to deny you love everything video game related. It's just one of those ever-uniting things that any red blooded guy just cannot resist, bend over and spend your cash on, but with so many leeches right now and all the marketing rubbish and the next generation in full swing, what should you go for?

It seems that increasingly we are becoming aware of out health in today's society. Wherever we go it's either you're too fat or too thin. Our bums, tums and bingo wings are constantly being set upon by the media, so, of course, it is perfectly natural and in most cases healthy to be aware of the fitness levels of our bodies; but how do we deal with these issues? Exercise! Back to top
