Micheal Moore's wife kiddnapped in Ethiopia
I hope this turns out OK.

At Least 12 Europeans Seized in Ethiopia

One of those kidnapped was Rossanna Moore, the Italian-born wife of Michael Moore, director of the British Council in Ethiopia, according to a diplomat who also spoke on condition of anonymity. Rossanna Moore holds dual British and Italian citizenship, according to the Italian Foreign Ministry, which said it was cooperating with the British government on the case.

Michael Moore refused to comment when reached by The Associated Press.

5. aww.. don't really read the article and ruin the freepers'
circle jerk!

Faux noise is going with it too, LOL!

I mean, sorry for these people, and this Michael Moore fellow, but it's not our fat loveable galumph that gets in corporate rats faces and makes them scream mercy. Some British guy. One of the most common given names combined with one of the most common surnames, and freepers heads can't wrap around it. Some of them actually think that Anna Nicole's baby daddy candidate is Howard Stern, ---the shock jock. DOH!

7. Just to confuse things further, there are 2 Michael Moores associated with the British Council
The director in Ethopia: http://www.britishcouncil.org/ethiopia-about-us-contact-us.htm

and the MP who is on the advisory board: http://www.chathamhouse.org.uk/index.php?id=15#michael

That's not mentioning the ex-PM of New Zealand and ex-head of the WTO: http://www.primeminister.govt.nz/oldpms/1990moore.html

A common name, indeed.

8. There's still time to edit your subject line.
Might make it more clear who you're referring to.
