Vatican officials feel more and more convinced that there is a concerted campaign to damage the Catholic Church and its supreme leader. A senior official reacted with disgust after reading the latest article, saying, "It's obvious the New York Times has its mind made up.

Jan. 12 was, in effect, the starting point for the next phase of competition in China's search market - the battle for Google's share, which is about one-third in terms of search revenue. The most obvious potential foreign beneficiary is Bing, Microsoft's new search entry.
