2. Presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama is not backing away from criticizing Republican contender John McCain for opposing legislation providing scholarships to those serving in the military. McCain says the benefit will encourage people to leave the service after one enlistment.
3. On the streets of two European cities, rioters clash with police. In Italy, the issue is who gets garbage from Naples. In Belgium, groups sparred after a soccer game.
