The Confederates were forced to evacuate the Norfolk area, and the Virginia was trapped. The ship rode too deep to go upriver, and the Union blockade sealed any sea escape. The crew blew up the Virginia...
Standing at an angle to his performances, leaping from style to style, manipulating his physical appearance, Elvis gave the impression of a man enduring beyond whatever external conditions fate pitched in his path.

At the opening hearing for five men accused of allowing a massacre at a church in Suai, the five army Chiefs of Staff attended with their wives, a dramatic reminder that those supporting the defendants are more powerful than those who will decide their fate. On Thursday morning, the trial of Yudyat Sudryato, a commander of the military's Kopassus special forces, was in session. About 40 Kopassus members faced the judges from the gallery, decked out in full uniform, red berets tucked under shoulder straps and daggers hanging from their belts despite...
