What's Next
o TSA Loosens Rules
A little liquid is O.K. on airplanes
Travelers, keep your lotion. The TSA has eased its ban on liquids in carry-on luggage. No longer banned: sample-size toiletries (that's 3 oz. or less)--too small, officials say, for major explosives.
o Troops to Darfur
A.U. force to stay until January
The U.S. warned Sudan last week to accept U.N. peacekeepers or face sanctions. In the meantime, the cash-strapped African Union pledged to stay a little longer--and send 4,000 more troops.
o Vote MySpace '06
Networking site touts polls
Click the vote! MySpace plans to target its 114 million users in a youth-voter-registration drive this month. Users will be able to post links on their pages to encourage friends to register online.
o Fox News Turns 10
A happy birthday? You decide
Fox News is marking 10 years on air with a 10-city "Thank You, America" tour, ending Nov. 14 in Detroit. One stop last week: Atlanta, where Fox broadcast from a park in sight of rival CNN's studio.
o Iron Mike's Back
Bankrupt boxer launches tour
Cover your ears. Tickets go on sale this week for the Mike Tyson World Tour, a series of bouts starting Oct. 20. The ex-champ hopes to pay his bills and said, "I'm going to feel better about myself."
