Description: On some country pages (e.g. Germany and Australia, but not Peru or Slovakia), a blank News section appears next to the Latest datasets published.
The News block shouldn't be there ever. There is already a separate high level tab for News. ]]>

The addition of the "News" section in the right hand side of the "Latest datasets published" block appears to be introduced, when a country has a registered news/rss feed.
E.g. Germany has News/RSS
http://www.gbif.org/country/DE/news
But and has an empty News block beside latest datasets published:
http://www.gbif.org/country/DE/publishing
On the other hand, Peru has no news/RSS:
http://www.gbif.org/country/PE/news
And has no News block beside latests datasets published:
http://www.gbif.org/country/PE/publishing
Do similar comparisons between Denmark (has news), and South Africa (SA) and you'll see the same inconsistency.

I'll check the new theme to ensure JavaWeb still gets what's needed from Drupal.

[~mraymond] we show the node news on the summary page and also in the news tab:
http://www.gbif.org/country/DE
http://www.gbif.org/country/DE/news
Is it good enough to just show them on the news page and remove the news sidebar on summary and the publishing page?
