Second, from Russia:China arrests over coup rumours
The internet rumours have spooked China's top leadership
Chinese police have arrested six people and shut 16 websites after rumours were spread that military vehicles were on the streets of Beijing, officials say.
The web posts were picked up last week by media outlets around the world, amid uncertainty caused by the ouster of top political leader Bo Xilai.
The State Internet Information Office (SIIO) said the rumours had a "very bad influence on the public".
Two popular microblogs have temporarily stopped users from posting comments.
An unhappy and unstable China and Russia tend to make unhappy and unstable decisions whilst under pressure.Russian Police Detain 55 Protesters Near Moscow's Red Square

Activists had called for supporters to walk around the square, located outside of the Kremlin, wearing white ribbons as a symbol of the protest movement.
But police closed the square and blocked off its access roads, preventing the gathering.
Russian opposition activists have criticized the government for violating their right to freedom of assembly.
Tens of thousands of activists have rallied in recent months against widespread fraud in the parliamentary election and against Vladimir Putin's election as president last month.
And pressure is indeed ratcheting up on all countries and issues.
With that in mind, according to Obama aides, it's time to blame Romney for Obama's blatant display of fear towards Russia in Obama's "coming second term."
For the love of God, I swear this nation and this planet get more upside down and unrecognizable by the week -- and so few seem to notice or care.
