...There had been the dull ache of a divided family, split by the 1947 partition and the Line of Control established in 1949 after the first India-Pakistan war. But that seemed to evaporate with summer?s family reunion. Yet even that recent happiness is a distant memory now. Asked whether he had word from Muzzafarabad, the epicenter of Saturday's earthquake where an estimated 11,000 people died, Qumayom said absently: ?We have had no communication with them...
...LEADER - YET. The Tory image should sharpen when a new man takes charge in December. The party conclave got its biggest boost from the spirited horse race among five contenders vying for the job; much will depend on whether the stumbling front runner David Davis (widely deemed dull) holds off the hard-charging old gaffer Ken Clarke and the up-and-coming new boy David Cameron, who is only 38.

There's politics and religion too, as well as some of Nashville's best musicians, though...
...towers of Gaza City emerge from the blue Mediterranean haze as our chopper glides down from Tel Aviv. The red and white striped communications tower of an Israeli military post marks the northeast corner of the fence surrounding the Gaza Strip. Beyond, where 1.5 million Palestinians live in the dull concrete of densely-packed apartment blocks. The gray is punctuated with blazing strips of sand - these are the open spaces farmed by Israeli settlers who raise crops in greenhouses to counter the barrenness of the dunes...
