World-News

Michael Hirsh, Newsweek: "Not long ago, a group of skeptical Democratic senators met at the White House with President Obama, his chief economic adviser, Larry Summers, and Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner. The six senators - most of them centrists, joined by one left-leaning independent, Vermont's Bernie Sanders - said that while they supported Obama, they were worried. The financial reform policies the president was pursuing were not going far enough, they told him, and the people Obama was choosing as his regulators were not going to change things fundamentally enough."

The Bush Six

Jane Mayer, The New Yorker: "About a year ago, a book came out in England that made a fascinating prediction: at some point in the future, the author wrote, six top officials in the Bush Administration would get a tap on the shoulder announcing that they were being arrested on international charges of torture."

David Gespass, Truthout: "For those of us who were in Durban, South Africa, in 2001 for the World Conference Against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance, the decision of the United States to leave before the conclusion was disheartening, but not surprising... There were two issues in particular the US did not want on the agenda. One was that of reparations for the slave trade and the other was the plight of the Palestinian people. While the US withdrawal was predicated on the latter, it remains an open question how much of a role each played in its decision."

Police Killing Shakes Louisiana Town

Michael Kunzelman and Mary Foster, The Associated Press: "For 73 years before his killing by a white police officer, Bernard Monroe led a life in this northern Louisiana town as peaceful as they come - five kids with his wife of five decades, all raised in the same house, supported by the same job. The black man's shooting death is attracting far more attention than he ever did, raising racial tensions between the black community and Homer's police department."

Schockierende Satellitenbilder - Globaler Wandel - die Erde aus dem All.
Satellitenbilder machen sichtbar, was sonst verborgen bleibt: Auf der Erde findet ein stetiger globaler Wandel statt. Ein Bildband zeigt Aufnahmen, die die Herausforderungen unserer Zeit festhalten und trotz ihrer Ernsthaftigkeit immer auch eins zeigen: wie schön und erhaltenswert der Planet Erde ist.

Das wahre Bild der Erde

Bilder sagen mehr als tausend Worte. Englische Forscher machen sich dieses Motto zu Nutze: Anstatt mit nackten Statistiken und Zahlenkolonnen auf globale Missstände hinzuweisen, entwerfen die Wissenschaftler neuartige Weltkarten. Das Ergebnis: ein neuer und oft erschreckender Blick auf unseren Planeten.
