I'm pretty sure that if you hyphenate a word to fit it on two lines, you're supposed to break it between syllables. You know, maximum readability.

The Express today hyphenates "globetrotting" between the first O and the B. I can forgive the small paper with extra-tight deadlines -- it's not like a program would catch a mistake like this -- but I find it unduly amusing. Is there an alternate four-syllable pronunciation?

...There is now.
