...daughter's funeral, according to several witnesses, Pranee looked ill and complained of tiredness. "We thought it was because of the stress of losing her daughter," says a villager. Pranee visited a clinic, but like her child, was sent home, and then returned to Bangkok. Less than two weeks later, Pranee died of bird flu, the country's 10th confirmed victim of the disease?but one with a major distinction.

...municipal council in the posh Paris suburb of Neuilly-sur-Seine. In 1983 he was elected its mayor, and five years later joined Parliament. Sarkozy's commitment and dedication helped make him a Chirac protégé; for a time he even dated Chirac's youngest daughter, Claude. But in 1993, when he was 38, Sarkozy became Budget Minister and spokesman in the government of conservative Prime Minister Edouard Balladur. In the 1995 presidential race, he ditched a 20-year allegiance to Chirac to back Balladur, who was then riding high in the polls. But Chirac ended...
