'Dear Diary' (@placeholder, 1993) "Moretti is a film maverick who first emerged in the mid-1970s, whose films are always in some way autobiographical. | LONDON, England (CNN) -- Over the last few weeks, there has been a definite Italian flavor pervading "The Screening Room" offices.

Italian film has also expanded its horizons this year. Paolo Sorrentino's "Il Divo" and Matteo Garrone's "Gomorrah" wowed critics at Cannes film festival, fueling, once again, talk of a resurgence in Italian cinema.

Species such as rhinos, elephants and tigers are being poached in Africa and Asia, while antique collections, museums and even zoos in the UK are at risk from criminal gangs attempting to steal rhino horn, conservation group WWF said. Exhibits of rhino heads at Haslemere Educational Museum, Surrey, and Norwich Castle Museum have both been targeted by thieves as criminals seek to cash in on increasing demand for rhino horn as a cancer medicine or 'hangover cure' in Asia.

@placeholder, a province of Sudan, has suffered the worst humanitarian crisis in the world, according to aid groups. | (CNN) -- The United Nations humanitarian chief urged Sudan to allow aid workers into a Darfur refugee camp that has been closed for nearly two weeks, limiting access to 80,000 displaced people. Sudanese authorities prevented aid agencies from entering Kalma camp and its surrounding areas after violence broke out earlier this month. The closure came despite reassurances that restrictions had not been imposed. "I am extremely concerned about the welfare of the IDPs at Kalma camp, to whom we have not been able to deliver relief for 13 days," John Holmes, U.N. Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, said Friday. "Deliveries of food and fuel for water pumps have for example not been possible. Sanitation is also a major concern as it is the middle of the rainy season. Many thousands of IDPs from Kalma remain unaccounted for."

@placeholder was not defending and I almost caught him unawares.’ | Dramatically, and perhaps decisively, Lewis Hamilton poked the nose of his Mercedes ahead of Nico Rosberg to win the American Grand Prix. The moment the Briton seized the race – and moved significantly closer to the world title itself – came in the 24th lap at the Circuit of Americas, his run down to the inside of left hairpin at the end of the back straight too brisk and too daring for his team-mate to withstand. Hamilton’s victory under the Texan sun was his fifth in succession and 32nd of his career – making him, in terms of grand prix wins, the most successful British driver in Formula One history, eclipsing Nigel Mansell, and in 41 fewer races.

The friends' claims that @placeholder is still alive was reinforced by others who says they know Rehana and have spoken to her in recent days. | The female Kurdish fighter who became a poster girl for the Kobane resistance before allegedly being beheaded by Islamic State militants is actually alive and well, it was claimed today. The woman, known by the pseudonym Rehana, was celebrated as a symbol of hope for the besieged Syrian border city after an image of her making a peace sign was retweeted over 5,000 times. That picture was followed days later by a gruesome photograph of an ISIS terrorist holding the severed head of a young woman, sparking rumours that Rehana had been savagely murdered. But now friends of Rehana have told MailOnline that the dead woman in the photograph is in fact a different Kurdish resistance fighter, adding that Rehana managed to escape Kobane during intense fighting there last week and is now believed to be living in southern Turkey.

... Now we are going to see, who is @placeholder, truly?" | On both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border, key questions are lingering after Mexico's presidential vote. Election authorities projected Enrique Peña Nieto of the Institutional Revolutionary Party, or PRI, as the winner Sunday night. But his closest competitor, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador of the Democratic Revolution Party, or PRD, has not conceded. The election results raise issues rooted in Mexico's complicated political past that will play a critical role in shaping the nation's future, analysts say. Has the PRI, a political party that critics accuse of being authoritarian and corrupt, changed its approach in Mexico? Will Lopez Obrador and his supporters protest the election results as they have in the past? And will Peña Nieto's proposal to decrease violence mark a significant shift in U.S.-Mexico drug war policy?

In April 2006, two Iraqis mourn a relative slain in sectarian violence in the city of Falluja. He wants cold, hard justice for the killers of his son, Raed, a 25-year-old business school graduate, "cut to pieces" by Mehdi Army militia members in their Baghdad neighborhood. The Wissams are among the hundreds of thousands of Iraqis caught in the maelstrom of the militia violence that rippled across Iraq after the 2006 bombing in Samarra of the Askariya Mosque, a Shiite shrine. The kind of trauma and pain endured by the Wissam family is kindling an interest in a social healing process adopted by countries around the world -- truth commissions. They are bodies across the globe that have provided a forum for victims and perpetrators to give cathartic public testimony on human rights abuses and come up with policy recommendations to correct the root cause of the abuses.
