...reformists struggle to keep the opposition momentum alive at a time when government forces are making it nearly impossible to demonstrate on the streets, Karroubi is taking a different tack from Mousavi. The opposition front-runner announced the creation of a new movement, the Path of Green Hope, but as a broad social movement rather than a full-fledged political party. Karroubi, for his part, has said that he won't be joining the Path of Green Hope. Instead, he's focusing his efforts on holding the government on an issue that has clearly resonated with the Iranian public...

The role of Henry might once have been intended for Brad Pitt, who serves as an executive producer on the film. But it's well served by Bana, switching gears after playing the villain in Star Trek and a much less sympathetic wandering husband (for laughs) in Funny People. Here Bana hits...
...International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), one of the few NGOs still working in South Ossetia, has been trying to find a path through the minefield of identity politics to reunite families that have been split by the war. "Right after the conflict there were lots of requests from people seeking to be reunited with their families," says Marina Tedeti, spokeswoman for the ICRC operating in South Ossetia. Since the end of the war - and with the support of both the Georgian and the South Ossetian governments - the organization has brought 320 people back together with their families through...
