Hollywood Product: 'Cloverfield'new
The bottom line: Cloverfield lives up to six months of online hype. Once the bad stuff starts going down, no one in the theater takes a breath for an hour. It even offers a fairly touching story of callow New Yorkers who find love and meaning in the teeth of disaster, amid all the holy-crap monster spectacle.

How Did Kenya Come to the Brink of Civil War?new
Relative to its East African neighbors, however, Kenya has been sitting relatively pretty. Unfortunately, Kenya's semihappy days may be over for a while, thanks to Dec. 27's disputed presidential election.
