    • BASRA, IRAQ - OCTOBER 18: People gather around a Land Rover as it arrives at the village Al Houta on October 18 2008 near Basra, Iraq. The trip by the 51 Sqn Royal Air Force Regiment Force Protection Wing was part of a 'key leader engagement' (KLE) visit to the village close to the Basra Airbase to recruit local labour and engage with the village shiek. Visits of this type are seen as key in efforts to continue winning the support of the local Iraqi population. Although improved security in the region has brought some benefits such as improved trade and commerce, much of the infrastructure remains in a poor state of repair. Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown has indicated that the number of UK troops could be scaled down - especially as the security situation in the south of the country continues to improve.

    • A man cycles past a Cuban flag in Havana November 5, 2008. U.S. President-elect Barack Obama's promise of change reached across the Florida Straits on Tuesday as Cubans said his victory over John McCain gave them hope for better relations with the United States and improvement in their own lives. Obama's campaign vow to ease the 46-year-old U.S. trade embargo against Cuba and his willingness to consider dialogue with the Cuban government were a breath of fresh air after almost eight years of tough talk and hard-line policies from the Bush adminstration, Cubans said.

  • Science fiction writer Frederik Pohl works on his laptop at his Palatine, Ill. home July 22, 2008. During an interview with the Associated Press, Pohl discussed the book he co-wrote with longtime friend Arthur C. Clarke. "The Last Theorem," due in bookstores Aug. 5, represents a historic collaboration between two of the genre's most influential writers in the twilight of their careers. Clarke died in March at age 90; Pohl is 89. Clarke _ best known for his 1968 work, "2001: A Space Odyssey" _ originally intended "The Last Theorem" to be his final solo project, and began writing it in 2002. Poor health forced Clarke to search for a co-author. From AP Photo by Russel A. Daniels.
