Germans arrest suspect in neo-Nazi murder ring (AP)

BERLIN ? German prosecutors say they have arrested a 36-year-old man suspected of helping a neo-Nazi terror ring carry out six suspected murders over the course of a decade.

Federal prosecutors said in a statement that police had arrested a man identified only as Ralf W. early Tuesday on suspicion of abetting six counts of murder and one of attempted murder, in connection with the slayings by the far-right National Socialist Union of several victims with Turkish and Greek roots.

Prosecutors suspect the man of being "closely connected to the three members of the NSU since the 1990s." He is further suspected of having helped organize money and weapons that helped the group to live undetected for years.

Two NSU members are now dead, a third is in custody.

SteelSeries Limited Edition Fnatic Sensei gaming mouse | Ubergizmo

Your choice of a gaming mouse is very important when it comes to making sure you are able to get the right shot in at those crucial moments, even more so when you are involved in a team game, as you might need to cover someone else?s back, and a failure in equipment on your part (no, your ego would never have admitted to a failure in skill) might spell the difference between disaster and success. Well, SteelSeries? latest offering to the world would be the Limited Edition Fnatic Sensei gaming mouse, where it will come in an ambidextrous form factor, sporting orange, black and white colors at the same time to keep it stylish ? at least according to SteelSeries? own design house.

Touted by SteelSeries to be ?the most customizable mouse to ever hit the competitive gaming industry?, the SteelSeries Sensei in its limited edition form factor will feature three zones of 16.8 million color illumination options, where the Fnatic logo is not spared. This is no dumb mouse ? it also sports its very own 32 bit ARM processor that is enough to power sophisticated calculations that are done on the mouse directly. There is also no need for any software drivers to have it going. Apart from that, sensitivity settings can also be changed in increments of one from 1 to 5,700 CPI, where there is also an ?overclocked? Double CPI feature that enables one to crank it up all the way to 11,400 DCPI. You won?t have to break the bank for this puppy though, since it retails for just $99.99 ? at the equivalent amount in Euros if you?re living across the pond. [Press Release]

(AP) ? Republican presidential contender Newt Gingrich looked to turn an endorsement from New Hampshire's largest newspaper into momentum elsewhere, heading to South Carolina for a three-day campaign swing with tea party members.

His leading rival, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, did not schedule campaign appearances on Monday, but his advisers were working to downplay The New Hampshire Union Leader's backing of Gingrich in Romney's back yard. The newspaper's rejection of Romney, who enjoys solid polling leads in that state and has worked to line up activists, stood to potentially reshape the entire campaign.

"We don't back candidates based on popularity polls or big-shot backers. We look for conservatives of courage and conviction who are independent-minded, grounded in their core beliefs about this nation and its people, and best equipped for the job," the newspaper said in its Sunday front-page editorial.

The Union Leader's editorial is a sign that conservative concerns about Romney's shifts on crucial issues of abortion and gay rights were unlikely to fade. Those worries have led Romney to keep Iowa's Jan. 3 caucuses ? where conservatives hold great sway ? at arm's length.

At the same time, the endorsement boosts Gingrich's conservative credentials. He spent the week defending his immigration policies against accusations they represent a form of amnesty. On Monday, Gingrich was to begin a campaign swing through South Carolina, the South's first primary state. There, he will have a town hall meeting with Rep. Tim Scott and tea party activists in Charleston.

Romney, taking a few days' break for the Thanksgiving holiday, has kept focused on a long-term strategy that doesn't lurch from one development to another. Last week, he picked up the backing of Sen. John Thune, a South Dakota conservative, to add to his roster of supporters.

Romney planned to return to the campaign on Tuesday in Florida.

The Union Leader's rejection of Romney wasn't surprising despite his efforts to woo state leaders. The newspaper rejected Romney four years ago in favor of Arizona Sen. John McCain, using front-page columns and editorials to promote McCain and criticize Romney.

Romney, the former Massachusetts governor who has a vacation home in the state and has been called a "nearly native son of New Hampshire," absorbed the blow heading into the Jan. 10 vote that's vital to his campaign strategy.

Yet with six weeks until the primary, The Union Leader's move could again shuffle the race, further boosting Gingrich and driving a steady stream of criticism against his rivals. In recent weeks, the former House speaker has seen a surge in some polls as Republicans focus more closely on deciding who they consider best positioned to take on President Barack Obama.

Rep. Barney Frank to retire, closing long career (AP)

WASHINGTON ? Democratic Rep. Barney Frank of Massachusetts does not intend to seek re-election in 2012, his office said Monday, closing out a career of more than three decades in Congress capped by last year's passage of legislation imposing new regulations on Wall Street.

Frank, 71 and a lifelong liberal, won a House seat in 1980 was one of the first lawmakers to announce that he is gay.

He scheduled an early afternoon news conference in Newton, Mass., to make a formal announcement of his retirement plans.

Sixteen other Democrats have announced plans not to seek new House terms in 2012, compared with six Republicans.

As chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, Frank was instrumental in passage of the Dodd-Frank bill, which contained the stiffest restrictions on banks and Wall Street since the Great Depression. The measure clamped down on lending practices and expanded consumer protections to prevent a repeat of the 2008 meltdown that knocked the economy to its knees.

Over the years, Frank consistently came down on the liberal side of public issues, opposing the war in Iraq and bills to cover its expenses.

More than two decades ago, Frank was reprimanded by the House for using his congressional status on behalf of a male prostitute whom he had employed as a personal aide, including seeking dismissal of 33 parking tickets.

"I should have known better. I do now, but it's a little too late," Frank said at the time.

Democrats rebuffed Republican calls for Frank's expulsion, and instead, the Massachusetts Democrat resumed a career that far outlasted many of those who had sought his ouster.

Airlines cancel flights to UK over strike

Airlines said Monday they are canceling some flights in and out of London's Heathrow Airport ahead of a nationwide public sector strike this week that will include employees who check passports.

As many as 2 million public workers in Britain are expected to join a one-day walkout on Wednesday ? from immigration officials to teachers to garbage collectors ? in an escalating row over planned changes to public-sector pensions.

Civil service staff and contractors will be brought in to cover for striking immigration officials at Britain's borders, though most airlines have advised passengers to reschedule any journeys planned for Wednesday into the U.K..

Heathrow's owner, BAA, warned last week of possible 12-hour delays at immigration halls at Europe's busiest airport as U.K. Border Agency staff join in the action, and asked airlines to fly half-full planes into Heathrow during the strike.

Gatwick Airport has warned passengers to be prepared for "significant disruption" at immigration. The strike also could affect flights in and out of the London area's other three airports ? Stansted, Luton and City ? which handle many flights to and from continental Europe.

Middle East carrier Etihad Airways said Monday it has canceled two flights from Abu Dhabi into Heathrow and one flight from Heathrow to Abu Dhabi "to spare the airline's guests the expected disruption at Heathrow airport and the long delays in waiting to clear immigration."

Etihad said it is operating another flight with reduced passenger capacity.

Greece's Aegean Airlines said it canceled one Heathrow to Athens flight and one from Athens to Heathrow because airport authorities warned of "potentially huge problems with delays."

Aegean said there were possible delays to two of its other flights departing from Heathrow to Athens on Wednesday, plus a flight to Cyprus.

British Airways said it had not canceled any flights on Wednesday and hoped to run a full service, while Virgin Atlantic said it had cut its passenger numbers for the day of the strike by more than 1,000.

British Airways and Virgin both agreed last week to waive the normal charges for passengers looking to rebook their flights for Wednesday.

The walkout is expected to top the scale of Britain's 1979 strikes ? when tens of thousands of people halted work over pay disputes. Some labor unions claim the action could even eclipse Britain's 1926 general strike, when about 1.75 million people joined walkouts.

In the latest dispute, workers oppose government demands that they work longer before receiving a pension, contribute more money each month and accept a pension calculated using their average career salary, rather than their final salary.

LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) ? Millennium Films has acquired the rights to the Chris Baldi comedy "Guys Night" and has slated a spring production start date.

Cluster munition talks reject US proposal (AP)

GENEVA ? A group of 50 nations led by Norway, Austria and Mexico has defeated a U.S. effort to enact a worldwide ban on cluster munitions produced before 1980.

Two weeks of diplomatic talks ended late Friday night with the U.S. government saying it was "deeply disappointed by the failure."

The U.S. mission to the U.N. in Geneva said in a statement Saturday its proposal would have reined in about 85 percent of the world's stockpiles of cluster bombs, artillery shells and missiles.

But opponents including activist groups say that would undermine an international law that took effect last year to phase out cluster weapons, which are packed with "bomblets" that scatter indiscriminately and often harm civilians.

More than 60 nations have adopted the law so far.
