       Musicians Alicia
            Keys and Bono have collaborated on the recording
            "Don't Give Up (Africa)," all of whose proceeds will go to
            Keep a       Child Alive, a charity that provides medicine
            to families with       HIV-positive members. The song will
            be available exclusively through       iTunes starting
            December 6. The duo first sang "Don't Give Up
            (Africa)" at a November 3 fund-raiser in New York City for
            the       charity. For more information, go online to www.keepachildalive.org.
