Q: Andrew HardingAfrica correspondent@BBCAndrewHon Twitter It has not worked out quite like that. Instead the brutal conflict has been nudged out of Uganda, and into neighbouring countries like the Democratic Republic of Congo - not the first time the DR Cong has played host to other people's battles - where it has continued to fester in its uniquely barbarous way. There is an interesting new website where you can track the atrocities. Now, as you may have heard, the US is sending 100 troops to Uganda for what some believe could be the final chapter in one of the region's longest, cruellest and most overlooked wars. It is a small, limited deployment by President Barack Obama, in a country where America now has a fairly complex set of interests, ranging from Uganda's new oil fields to its vital role in the peacekeeping operation in nearby Somalia. The Americans will presumably be looking to play a co-ordinating role in the hunt for the LRA's crazed, elusive, Kurtz-like leader, Joseph Kony. Previous outside attempts to track him down have lacked a certain focus. As with Unita rebel leader Jonas Savimbi's death in Angola, this feels like a conflict that could wither away very quickly once the ringleader is removed. Even then, though, I suppose, there is a danger that a rebellion that lost any sense of logic or meaningful motive decades ago will linger on - perhaps finding new regional sponsors - and preying on remote communities as so many other marauding militias still do in the Great Lakes. I thought I would link below to some interesting responses to the US military's latest venture on the continent. But first - if you can cope with such proudly flaunted ignorance - check out the all-too-revealing reaction of one famous American talk-show host. With Darfur out of the news, the LRA has started to attract more attention abroad. Hollywood has even taken up the story - or one disputed version of it. And I believe the topic even featured on a recent episode of "So You Think You Can Dance". On a more serious note, the Washington Post endorsed President Obama's move while the Atlantic Monthly took a more "wait-and-see" approach. This blogger lamented America's short-termism. So did this one. While this article puts a human face on some of the challenges facing American troops, and this website offers a direct message to President Obama from victims of the LRA. As with Kenya's current offensive across the border into Somalia, there is a risk that US intervention in Uganda will galvanise a struggling insurgency, rather than weaken it. But in this instance, I doubt it. Anyone who has seen the LRA's gruesome handiwork will be praying for a quick, decisive finale.

A: Seven years ago Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni confidently assured me that the war against the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) would be over in months.

Q: Matt Haine was commuting from his home in Warminster, Wiltshire to Weston-super-Mare, Somerset when he heard a cat on the roof of his white Transit. He said: "I pulled up and it just slid down the windscreen - so slowly - I saw the tail then the back legs and all of a sudden these big eyes looking at me." It was only after he called his wife at home that he realised the windswept feline was the family's own cat Flo. For more stories about rescued animals follow BBC England's Pinterest board Mr Haine, said he had just arrived at the seaside resort - after a 70 minute drive - when he saw the "silhouette of a cat walking along the top of the roof". "All of a sudden it just slid down the roof and I'm look at it and I'm thinking is that Flo?" he said. "There is a roof rack on the van and the only thing I can think of is that she wedged herself between the roof rack and the pipe tube - where I keep my copper pipes. "She's quite a small cat but she seemed to cling on to the roof rack quite well - I don't know how many claws she's got left now." For the return journey, Mr Haine strapped the young animal in the passenger seat and now says he checks his van over every morning before he leaves. "She's not been on there lately mind - she's learnt her lesson," he said. "I don't think she wants to come back again in a hurry."

A: A cat has survived a 45-mile (72km) road trip on the roof of a van.

Q: The report said ethnic minorities largely performed better academically than white Scots. But they were more likely to be unemployed or in low-paid work, and were under-represented in senior management roles. Here, three people from different ethnic minority backgrounds describe some of the difficulties they have encountered. Joseph Amouzou, 19, from Springburn in Glasgow Born in Togo, Joseph moved to Glasgow aged four and is fluent in English and French. He is also Scotland's under-20s triple jump champion. A former pupil at Bellahouston Academy's Glasgow School of Sport, he volunteers as a sports coach with Shettleston Harriers. For a year Joseph struggled to find work, before gaining a Commonwealth Apprentice with North Glasgow Housing Association, which provides housing and support services to tenants and owners in North Glasgow. He said: "I don't feel like I encountered any barriers during my school years. There were lots of people at Bellahouston Academy from a range of different ethnic backgrounds and I never felt we were treated differently. "The problems started when I left school. I was at college, but getting a job was definitely my goal. "A white, Scottish friend and I would go out together looking for work. We would hand in our CVs, but even though we had the same qualifications, he got the calls. "I thought putting my picture on my CV would show I'm smart and presentable. But then I started to wonder if having my picture - and name - on my CV made the difference." Ola Pawluk, 28, from Glasgow Ola is a Polish national. A university graduate, she has studied and worked in Glasgow for 10 years. She said: "Aged 18, I arrived in Glasgow on a Tuesday and started work on Wednesday. My mother had a catering company back in Poland, so I had a lot of industry experience. "I spoke English and I benefited from a positive stereotype. Employers would say to me, 'you're a Polish girl. You'll be hard-working. We'll take you on.' "That was the positive side. But employers wrongly assumed I didn't have the legal right to work here and that I would work harder for less. I had to fight to get the same contract my co-workers took for granted, and to be paid minimum wage. "My supervisor would make fun of my accent. You learned 'not to understand' certain things. It made life easier. "The occasional client would tell me to 'get back to my own country' if I didn't serve their drink quickly enough. I would respond with a look, but only that. "You don't want to be aggressive or start trouble. But I think I would have encountered greater challenges if I wasn't white. As a Polish national, I blended in." Zarina Ahmad, 47, from Kilmarnock Zarina is a Climate Change and Environment Officer with the Council of Ethnic Minority Voluntary Sector Organisations (CEMVO). She said: "Aged 16, my daughter started to apply for a Saturday job. Her white, Scottish friends have the same educational background; they take part in the same after-school activities and have the same experiences. The only difference is name and skin colour. "It's hard when your daughter sees her white friend applying for a handful of Saturday jobs, then being taken on at £10 an hour, while she makes countless applications, before finally being given a £3.75 an hour job. "She was in tears, asking 'what's wrong with me?' "We're now at the stage where many Asian people living in Scotland are third or fourth generation. Our culture and language are no different from people who identify as Scottish ethnicity. The only difference often setting us apart is skin colour. "I believe that if I had white, foreign parents, I would be seen as British by employers. But that's not the case for me or my children. "Asian people have accepted unfair treatment when we shouldn't accept it. We don't want to 'rock the boat'. We don't want to be seen as 'problematic'. "But third and fourth generation Asians are still not accepted, mainstream or integrated into the world of work. This needs to be tackled. We need strong, proactive leaders in anti-racism, employing similar strategies to the LGBT movement. "We also need to recognise that there exists a culture of institutional racism and this needs to change."

A:
People from ethnic minority backgrounds in Scotland still face "significant barriers" in the workplace, according to a report by a committee of MSPs.
