Mar 9th 2013, 02:57

In spite of the old image of long, tall Texans in 10-gallon hats, most people in the Lone Star State do not wear cowboy hats very often. When it's rodeo time in Houston, though, the hats are everywhere. There's a saying here in Texas about someone being "all hat and no cattle." At the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, plenty of people have both hats and cattle. But more than 80 percent of Texans now live in urban areas. The rodeo gives them a chance to get into the cowboy ...

Mar 9th 2013, 02:16

Soldiers around the world who fight in war zones often face similar issues once they return home, including trying to get back to their normal routines. They may have problems readjusting and experience severe anxiety known as post-traumatic stress that can even lead to suicide. Psychological counseling may help, but so may interactive videos designed to help soldiers deal with combat stress. One video is helping some US soldiers who return from war.

Provisional Results in Kenya: Kenyatta Wins, Barely
Mar 9th 2013, 01:10

Provisional results in Kenya give Deputy Prime Minister Uhuru Kenyatta a razor-thin victory in Monday's presidential election. The early results say Kenyatta won with 50.03 percent of the vote. Prime Minister Raila Odinga is in second place. Getting more than 50 percent of the vote is critical to avoid a runoff election. Kenyatta appears to have achieved that margin by just 4,100 votes out of a total 12.3 million cast. Kenya's electoral commission has not yet finalized the results ...

Two American sailors who died when their historic Civil War ship sank 151 years ago were buried with full military honors Friday at Arlington National Cemetery.

Mar 8th 2013, 22:29

Immigrant and gay rights activists in the United States are both fighting for greater freedoms and protections, but what they don't often see, advocates say, is that the two causes are intertwined. There are an estimated 904,000 lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) adult immigrants in the U.S. today, 30 percent of whom are undocumented, according to a new study published this week by the California-based Williams Institute.
