[Francis Hook]

This may be somewhat OT - but
1) its a Kenyan blog (ergo content - no good content)
2) it touches on how we sometimes view these "development" reports

http://diasporadical.com/2011/11/07/kenya-is-the-143rd-richest-country/#more-6224

Definitely worth a read (and a good laugh for Monday).
