The times, they are a-changin'

Into what, well, remains to be seen.

but:

Castro stepping down (brother probably taking reins)

Pakistan's ruling party voted out


and some things sort of don't:

more trouble in the Balkans: Kosovo


power corrupts, etc:

The Supreme Court rejected an ACLU challenge to Bush admin's wiretapping/domestic spying program
