Early birds are still available for in Auckland for what are two inspirational days of the year for sparking that little something that's been sitting dormant through the monotony of the daily design grind. Then there's the after party, where the real work starts.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.semipermanent.co.nz/">www.semipermanent.co.nz</a>Jay http://www.blogger.com/profile/09789314708960491170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8237692864931684116.post-56942576907693271442010-06-14T13:06:00.001-07:002010-06-14T13:06:59.245-07:00#085 the Lost Boys<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_MGodX8E7wyE/TBaGiBPfjKI/AAAAAAAAAis/Vt0Xsth1ZC0/s1600/boys.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 212px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_MGodX8E7wyE/TBaGiBPfjKI/AAAAAAAAAis/Vt0Xsth1ZC0/s400/boys.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5482717515377249442" border="0" /></a>After the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lo77w_71hA0&has_verified=1"><span style="font-style: italic;">Missionaries of Hate</span></a> doco, I went on a documentary binge with the U.S. series <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Vanguard</span>. Their latest installation which airs in the U.S. tomorrow, follows the secret cost to young African's trafficked to Europe, under the guise of gaining European contracts.<br /><br />It's estimated that 20,000 young West African players are currently stranded throughout Europe--trafficked there by predatory agents who snatch them off the fields of Ghana and Senegal and Cameroon promising contracts with big European teams and then abandon them when those tryouts either don't materialize or don't go well.<br /><br />Vanguard travels from the soccer pitches of Ghana to black market soccer games in Paris exposing the shady underworld of the sport at the forefront of the world mind.
