The 160 secondary school students who crossed the line last night had
run the equivalent of a half marathon each day for the past five days.
Their 120-kilometre effort raised more than $100,000 for CanTeen, a

Australian cardinal faces the Vatican's law of the jungle

In bureaucracies everywhere, when someone's interests are threatened
by a cycle of reform, one time-honored resistance strategy is to dig
up dirt on the reformers. We've already seen it under Pope Francis
with regard to Monsignor Battista Ricca, a 58-year-old Italian cleric
tapped by the pontiff in June, 2013 as his delegate to the Vatican
bank, monitoring a clean-up operation intended to spare the bank
future scandals. Now a bigger target seems to be in the sights of the
Italian news magazine l'Espresso, in the form of Australian Cardinal
George Pell, the secretary for the economy under Francis and
effectively the pope's finance czar...
