• The House will consider healthcare repeal next week.


• Protests continue in Tunisia, even as the President Ben Ali makes an offer of concessions.  There appears to be a tacit link between the protests and Wikileaks.


• Opium prices have soared, hindering the U.S. backed anti-drug efforts in Afghanistan.


• The Economist reflects on rape, its ubiquity in war, and its costs.
