Kenyan intertribal marriages strained by post election violence
Naomi Kering, 41, of the Kalenjin tribe, waits amid a burnt home after her Kikuyu husband Isaac Guthua fled when mobs targeted Kikuyus after Kenya's disputed December 27 vote. The violence has strained or ended intertribal marriages across western Kenya, where tensions flare and families confront tribal identity amid at least 685 dead. Guthua and his brothers disappeared, while Kering and Kinyanjui face social shunning and worry for their spouses, who may be alive in Nairobi or elsewhere.

Federal plan would clear Alaskan forest open to logging
The U S Forest Service released a plan allowing about 3.4 million acres of Alaska s Tongass National Forest to be logged and have roads built. It adds 39 000 acres to old growth reserves and protects 47 000 acres of karst lands while promising tribal consultation. Opponents say the plan repeats past flaws and could enable further roadless area clear cutting.
