...French daily le Parisien ran a full-front-page photo of Henry reaching with his hand to control the ball under the headline "Le Malaise." In its Friday editorial, Libération urged French officials to join Irish calls to replay the match. The conservative daily le Figaro, meanwhile, was anything but hyperbolic, with its headline blaring, "Thierry Henry's Hand Has Become an Affair of State...
Eating is as universal and timeless a human experience as exists. Food has always been much more than just sustenance. Throughout human history and across the full range of human cultures, food has always been not just a vital necessity and visceral pleasure, but a social unifier and a cultural signifier.

Any major move will require the resolution of key practical issues such as who owns church property, who can ordain priests, and other risks of dividing parishes over the desire by some into full communion with the Catholic Church. One conservative Anglican leader preparing to make the leap with his followers is hopeful that the Pope's decision to set up separate Anglican "personal ordinariates" - structurally similar to Catholic dioceses, but with married clergy and more democratic church governance - could attract growing numbers of traditionalists...
