French President Nicolas Sarkozy called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a "liar" in remarks to US President Barack Obama overheard by journalists. "I can't stand him any more, he's a liar," Mr Sarkozy said in French. "You may be sick of him, but me, I have to deal with him every day," Mr Obama replied. The exchange at the G20 summit was quoted by a French website, Arret sur Images, and confirmed by other media. The remarks - during a private conversation - were overheard by a few journalists last week but were not initially reported, the BBC's Christian Fraser in Paris says. Journalists at the bilateral press conference had been ...

A cleaning woman at a museum in Dortmund who mistook a Martin Kippenberger sculpture for an unsightly mess has destroyed the valuable artwork beyond recognition. The cleaner at the city's Ostwall Museum went to work on the Kippenberger installation entitled "When It Starts Dripping From the Ceiling" which was valued by insurers at €800,000 ($1.1 million), a museum spokeswoman said on Thursday. The late contemporary master had created a tower of wooden slats under which a rubber trough was placed with a thin beige layer of paint representing dried rain water. Taking it for an actual stain, the cleaner scrubbed the surface until it gleamed. "It is now impossible to ...
Nails on chalkboard noise mystery solved

A team of German and Austrian scientists say they’ve identified why the sound of fingernails on a chalkboard is so annoying. It’s a combination of the shape of the ear canal and the power of suggestion. The researchers, Michael Öhler of the Macromedia University for Media and Communication in Cologne and Christoph Reuter from the University of Vienna, first picked out two sounds they determined were the most annoying to people: scratching fingernails on a chalkboard and squealing chalk on a slate. They then played the sounds to a group of volunteers, half of whom were told their real origin and the other half who believed they came from contemporary music. The researchers ...

Rolando Arafiles Jr, MD, today pled guilty to criminal charges in a state court in Winkler County, Texas, for retaliating against 2 nurses who had anonymously reported him in 2009 to the Texas Medical Board (TMB) over the quality of his patient care. The case set off a national conversation on the protection afforded healthcare whistle-blowers. The 2 nurses, Anne Mitchell, RN, and Vickilyn Galle, RN, had worked with Dr. Arafiles at Winkler County Memorial Hospital in Kermit, Texas. Once they were identified as the whistle-blowers by a county investigation that Dr. Arafiles instigated, the nurses were charged with misuse of official information, which is a third-degree felony, and fired. ...

BEIJING, Nov. 7 (Xinhua) -- Xiao Yan and her sisters walked more than 300 km from Xi'an to Yan'an, then a Communist stronghold in northwestern Shaanxi province. Xiao didn't expect she would become one of the first radio-broadcasters of the Communist Party of China (CPC). After two years of study in the city of Yan'an, Xiao became an announcer for Xinhua Radio Broadcast Station in 1941. China was at war with the Japanese, and the Nationalists, or Kuomintang (KMT), had blocked the supply and communication lines to and from Communist-controlled areas. Communist newspapers and magazines could not reach Japanese- or KMT-controlled areas. So the CPC Central Committee set up a ...

WASHINGTON — The Iranian government has mastered the critical steps needed to build a nuclear weapon after receiving assistance from foreign scientists, The Washington Post reported. Citing unnamed Western diplomats and nuclear experts familiar with new intelligence to be released to the United Nations, the newspaper said a former Soviet weapons scientist had allegedly tutored Iranians on building high-precision detonators of the kind used to trigger a nuclear chain reaction. Crucial technology linked to experts in Pakistan and North Korea also helped propel Iran to the threshold of nuclear capability, the report said. An intelligence update will be circulated among International ...

MONTREAL – Another Montreal defence lawyer has fallen victim to violence. Gilles Doré, a lawyer who has represented clients in many high-profile cases, was assaulted outside his home in Outremont Friday night, according to police sources who said the victim was hospitalized with a serious head injury.

Montreal police Constable Raphael Bergeron could not confirm the identity of the person who was attacked. As a policy, the police force does not identify the victims of assault. But Bergeron was able to say that a ...

For nearly a century, Americans have been springing forward and falling back, and this year will be no different. Come Sunday morning, we'll all be snuggled soundly in bed when the clock falls back an hour. Daylight saving time is the seasonal surprise that borrows an hour from our circadian rhythm in the spring and gives it back in the fall. (This year, you'll need to adjust your clocks on Sunday, Nov. 6.) But whether or not we should disrupt the rhythm at all has spurred passionate debate from many disparate groups. Quick Poll How do you feel about daylight saving time? I love it! The extra daylight in the summer is great. It's an acceptable nuisance — I understand why ...

MOBILE, Ala (Reuters) - The owner of a large southwest Alabama car dealership derided as "Taliban Toyota" by a competitor has been awarded $7.5 million in damages after a jury trial for his slander claim. Iranian-born Shawn Esfahani, owner of Eastern Shore Toyota in Daphne, Alabama, sought $28 million in compensatory and punitive damages from Bob Tyler Toyota, claiming employees at that Pensacola, Florida-based dealership falsely portrayed him as an Islamist militant to customers. "The feeling I received in the courtroom for the truth to come out was worth a lot more than any money anybody can give me," Esfahani told Reuters on Tuesday. Esfahani's lawsuit said ...

BAGHPAT, India - When Munni arrived in this fertile, sugarcane-growing region of north India as a young bride years ago, little did she imagine she would be forced into having sex and bearing children with her husband's two brothers who had failed to find wives. "My husband and his parents said I had to share myself with his brothers," said the woman in her mid-40s, dressed in a yellow sari, sitting in a village community centre in Baghpat district in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh. "They took me whenever they wanted -- day or night. When I resisted, they beat me with anything at hand," said Munni, who had managed to leave her home after three months only on ...
Violence more common among kids of combat veterans

ATLANTA (AP) — A new study suggests that when parents are deployed in the military, their children are more than twice as likely to carry a weapon, join a gang or be involved in fights. And that includes the daughters. "This study raises serious concerns about an under-recognized consequence of war," said Sarah Reed, who led the research of military families in Washington state. Last year, nearly 2 million U.S. children had at least one parent serving in the military. Deployment can hurt a family in a variety of ways. There's stress while that parent is overseas and in danger, as the remaining parent has to shoulder all responsibilities and family roles shift. There ...
