...weekend's top newcomer, didn't exactly underperform; its opening was in line with the first weekends of other Aniston and Butler comedies. But with a cruddy 9% score from Rotten Tomatoes' survey of movie critics and a B-minus CinemaScore rating, the film can't expect much repeat business. At least it did better than Repo Men, whose re-poor $6.2 million made it suitable for foreclosure. Shelved for more than two years after its late-2007 shoot, the picture deepened the red-ink bloodbath at Universal, which has suffered from a year of flops, including Green Zone, down...
While it's already possible to stream a feature film in real time, in the best-case scenario it takes about two hours to download to a personal film archive, at home or on a mobile device, for repeat viewing. With the predictable slowdowns and interruptions now so common, the process can eat up four hours or more of computer time - to say nothing of time lost managing the process...

While Ethiopia was indeed in the grip of a drought, Mengistu Haile Mariam's government, which was fighting an insurgency at the time, restricted NGOs from helping famine victims in certain areas and forcibly moved hundreds of thousands of people from one place to another in a repeat of Soviet-era collectivization campaigns, exacerbating their plight. The rebels, who came to power years later, are partly responsible for people's suffering, too. A CIA report cited by the BBC found that money raised by the insurgents, ostensibly to help the starving, was "almost certainly" diverted for military purposes...
