...more traditional 4-4-2, the Azzurri pressed the attack with direct balls and along the wings in the first half, but the Romanians never panicked, maintaining their compact, fallback defense. Against the run of play Romania went ahead when Adrian Mutu anticipated Gianluca Zambrotta's back pass and blew a shot past Gianluigi Buffon in the 55th minute. Then Romania made the basic mistake of relaxing after scoring a goal. A minute later, Christian Panucci converted a corner kick at the far post to knot the score. Mutu could have won the game when the Romanians were awarded...

"A friend was liquefied in the driver's position on a tank, and I saw everything," was a typical comment. Another: "A huge f______ bomb blew my friend's head off like 50 meters from me." Such indelible scenes - and wondering when and where the next one will happen - are driving thousands of soldiers to take antidepressants, military psychiatrists say. It's not hard to imagine...

They produced a series of photographs in which Rob used a revolving camera to capture impressions of light and color from landscapes around the world. They painted tiny oil abstracts, photographed them and blew them up to 50 times the size of the originals before destroying the paintings. It was the photos that would be the art, after all. The paintings? Merely a means to it. "All the work is about light, color and form," says...
...charitable organization Save the Children UK effectively blew the whistle on itself and other aid organizations on Tuesday by publishing findings that a number of aid workers and United Nations peacekeepers engage in sexual abuse of some of the world's most vulnerable children. Hundreds of cases of sexual misconduct with children ranging in age from six to 17 were reported in disaster and war-torn regions around the world. And according to the report, a far greater number of cases go unreported...
