Supreme Court to Hear Al-Marri Detention Case
The Supreme Court agreed to decide if the president can indefinitely detain individuals on U.S. soil without charges. Ali al-Marri, a Qatar native seized in Illinois, argues he cannot be imprisoned without trial while the government contends he is an al Qaeda sleeper agent. Al-Marri has been held nearly 5 1/2 years in a Charleston Navy brig as the ACLU argues for due process. The case tests presidential authority over preventive detention and signals potential shifts with the Obama administration.

Blackwater guards indicted in 2007 Iraqi shooting
Five Blackwater Worldwide guards face indictments over the Sept 16 2007 Baghdad shooting that killed 17 Iraqis amid tensions with the United States. A sixth guard has been negotiating a plea. Prosecutors weigh manslaughter and assault charges and possible use of a 1988 drug bill provision for weapon use in a crime of violence. The case tests whether contractors in war zones can be charged in U.S. courts and hinges on immunity deals with State Department witnesses.

Secret Santas in three states spread unexpected cheer
In St Louis a suburban Goodwill employee received two $100 bills from a masked Secret Santa who urged a kind act in return. The act echoed Larry Stewart's famed anonymous gift campaign from Kansas City, who gave about $1.3 million over 26 years before his 2007 death. A protege continues the tradition in his memory.

Russian Orthodox Patriarch Alexy II dies at 79 in Moscow
Patriarch Alexy II of Moscow, who led a post-Soviet revival of Russian Orthodoxy, died aged 79 at his residence outside Moscow. He had long suffered from a heart ailment and led the church since 1990, overseeing a resurgence as the Soviet Union dissolved and religion broadened. The church claimed about two thirds of Russia's 142 million people as adherents at his death, while he warned of pressures from other Christian groups encroaching on believers.
