...days ahead. Up until now, his list of endorsements has been split between party elders like Phil Gramm and Howard Baker and newspaper editorial pages. (Aides sometimes refer to their boss as "president of the ed boards.") On Wednesday in California, Rudy Giuliani is widely expected to bow out of his candidacy and endorse McCain, his old friend...
...regulations issued by SARFT and China's Ministry of Information Industry (MII) could be putting an end to that free ride - and sending a shot across the bow of sites who host unauthorized content. Starting January 31, 2008, online video posting will be limited to state-owned or state-controlled video providers; clips that contain violence or sex or are considered "detrimental to the nation's security" will be deleted immediately.

Getting into the church was easy. The thieves probably walked in through the front door, posing as a few more of the faithful who come to bow their heads in St. John the Evangelist, the most important church in Capranica, 35 miles (56 km) north of Rome.

...travel up the Rift valley, the scale and fury of Kenya's southern division becomes ever more apparent. We enter a village called Kamosong, and 15 men surround the car. One is carrying a foot-long knife, another a hockey stick, a third a bow and arrow, a fourth a wooden club. A man who introduces himself as Thomas tells us the men are from the Kalenjin tribe of former President Daniel Arap Moi. "Have you got anyone in the back?" they ask Preston. "What's your name? Are you Kikuyu?" A few minutes further on, there is another roadblock...
