But in stark contrast, the second most popular was a controversial view of 
  modern America - USA 2008: The Great Depression, looking at this year as the 
  country's second great depression. Mirrored by another on being Down and out 
  in Las Vegas. Neither of which matched the horror of the earthquake in 
  Beichuan: a vision of hell.

Rather more romance was to be found in your reading of the tale of a man who 
  found out that his lover was a killer (I fell in love with a female 
  assassin) - less so in the Fury at $2.5bn bonus for Lehman's New York staff, 
  the bonus culture outlasting even its collapse. Stories of oil and riches 
  appeared with the Saudis promising We will pump more oil, while Secret plan 
  to keep Iraq under US control were also revealed.

Mandela's 80th birthday party and The Independent's successful campaign which 
  finished with Pervez death sentence quashed by Afghan court, a happy ending 
  for Sayed Pervez Kambaksh at least.
