Pope Benedict XVI is spending his first day as pontiff; this morning he read Mass for the cardinals who selected him yesterday. We're rounding up media reaction here, in Italy and in the Pope's native Germany. Madeleine Bunting will be arguing that the new Pope, though a hardliner, could oversee change in the church.
We're following the fortunes of Nusa, an Indonesian village devastated by December's tsunami. Yesterday John Aglionby reported on the problems facing villagers as they attempt to rebuild their homes, and today we'll have the latest photographs from Nusa.
We're also launching two new services today. Check out Sofa Cinema, our DVD rental service; and while you're browsing the thousands of titles on offer, you can keep up with the headlines by signing up to our desktop news alerts.
And if you or someone you know is planning to attend university, don't forget to visit our 2005 listings.
