The Economist January 12th - January 18th 2008

Did you know :: In The Simpsons episode \"Catch \'Em If You Can\", Homer is traveling by air in first class and says \"Look at me, I\'m reading The Economist. Did you know Indonesia is at a crossroads?\" and when questioned by his wife, he simply replies \"It is!\" Four days later, with its customary dry wit, The Economist alluded to the quote, and published an article about Indonesia referring to the \"crossroads\". The title of the issue was \"Indonesia\'s Gambit\". About seven months later, The Economist ran a cover headline reading \"Indonesia at a Crossroads.\" Leaders ======= America\'s election Up in the air Colour revolutions in the former Soviet Union A bit faded but still bright enough Emerging-market multinationals Wind of change America\'s economy A long slog America in the Middle East George Bush drinks in the last-chance casbah Letters ======= On Kenya, beauty, Canadian workers, Muslims, words, shopping malls United States ============= The Democrats The Comeback Kid, part two The Republicans The Mac is back Primary colour On the campaign trail Obamamania Has the magical mystery tour hit the buffers?

an anyone get hold of Courrier International? Not in audio but as a pdf? If you can read French this is one of the most informative newspapers you can imagine,
