What would the world be like without airplanes? We ask the question; and look at this morning's headlines.

European officials struck a deal yesterday to reopen most of Europe's air space to plane travel as early as this afternoon, assuming Iceland's Eyjafjallajokull volcano continues to subside. This would end the worst peacetime travel disruption in history, a travel crisis that has left thousands of passengers stranded for days and cost the airline industry hundreds of millions of dollars. But in the midst of the chaos and inconveniences, one philosopher took a moment to reflect on what our world would look like without airplanes.

Since Haiti's earthquake earlier this year, thousands of Haitians continue to live in tent cities, which tend to be small, crowded and offer little privacy. As a result, many women have reported being victims of sexual assault or rape. Rape has always been a problem in Haiti, a country where the act was only truly criminalized in 2005, but the breakdown of social structures since the earthquake has worsened the problem.

As Iran and the U.S. continue to square off over Iranian pursuit of nuclear power and more U.N. sanctions, Turkey has offered to try and be a mediator between the two countries.

From airlines champing at the bit to get back in the air over western Europe despite Iceland's volcanic ash, to some dirty dealings at Goldman Sachs, questions of risk and risk-taking are dominating the news cycle this week. But what happens if we avoid risk all-together? Is it even possible?

Tod Briliant is one of the many travellers who has been grounded thanks to ash from the volcano in Iceland. It's stressful for anyone, but Briliant's wife is eight months pregnant. Nonetheless, they've been making use of their time. Tod started a Facebook group called "When Volcanoes Erupt: A Survival Guide for Stranded Travelers," which already has over 1500 members.
