Miss Israel 2013 is crowned, Yityish Aynaw.
In February, 21-year-old Yityish Aynaw became the first black Miss Israel. Born in Ethiopia, Aynaw was orphaned at the age of 12 and her maternal grandparents, already settled in Israel, sent for her and her younger brother. The rest, as they say, is history. Or it would be, if Israel wasn't still grappling with its own history of discrimination against black Ethiopian Jews since the first planeload were flown into Israel more than three decades ago.

Being 50 minutes late for his first meeting with Pope Francis was nothing unusual for Russian President Vladimir Putin.
That's just the way he is -- a character trait that provides some insight into his attitude toward power. When Putin arrived on time to an audience with Pope John Paul II in 2003, the punctuality was considered a newsworthy aberration: "The President Was Not Even a Second Late," read the headline in the newspaper Izvestia. He had been 15 minutes late for a similar audience in 2000. The waits other leaders have had to endure in order to see Putin range from 14 minutes for the Queen of England to three hours for Yulia Tymoshenko, the former Ukrainian prime minister. Few people are as important in terms of protocol as the queen or the pope, and there is no country Putin likes to humiliate as much as Ukraine.
