...even most domestic-policy issues, Democrats are in broad agreement. Early on in the 2008 primaries, it became clear that there just weren't many real issues dividing the candidates.

On Sunday, the central bank had stopped credit lines for customers and told them not to use Internet services to avoid hackers, some of whom had gained access to government sites over the weekend.

A senior Georgian banking official told me that the equivalent of $100 million, or 3% of the country's total deposit base, was withdrawn from the National Bank of Georgia...
