Ahead of the Curve: The next 7 days
updated 1:53 PM EST, Sun December 9, 2012
Nobel laureates receive their prizes Monday during the 2012 Nobel Prize Award Ceremony at the Stockholm Concert Hall in Sweden. Here's a look at some of the other stories CNN plans to cover this week.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will travel Tuesday to Marrakech, Morocco, to participate in a meeting of the Friends of the Syrian People. The meeting will offer Clinton a chance to meet with governments in the region and discuss how to support the Syrian opposition and bring an end to the violence plaguing the country.
A star-studded lineup will perform at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday to raise funds for Superstorm Sandy relief. Bruce Springsteen, The Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton and Alicia Keys are some of the artists slated to take the stage.
The nominees are in. On Thursday morning, nominees for the 70th Annual Golden Globe Awards will be announced. Amy Poehler and Tina Fey will host this year's award show, putting an end to the reign of Ricky Gervais, who hosted from 2010 to 2012.
On Friday, TIME Magazine will announce its Person of the Year. Readers can vote for their choice until 11:59 p.m. on Wednesday. As of Sunday afternoon, Kim Jong Un was the far and away favorite.
Egyptians will vote Saturday to approve or reject a draft constitution -- a potentially pivotal moment for the North African nation that underwent a revolution last year and, more recently, has seen its president become the target of fierce protests.
