Another one goes.

US Secretary of State Colin Powell has said he is resigning, his department has confirmed.
He will step down from his post once President Bush has chosen a successor, officials were quoted as saying.

The 67-year-old, long rumoured to have planned to serve only one term, is said to have submitted his resignation to President George W Bush last Friday.
