Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, right, hands a folder to U.S. Secretary
of State John Kerry before the start of the NATO- Russia Council
meeting at NATO headquarters on Tuesday, April 23, 2013, in Brussels, Belgium.APSecretary
of State John Kerry is headed to Russia next week for talks
on Syria, Iran and terrorism concerns that have spiked since the Boston
Marathon bombings.Kerry will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin
and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.Their conversations will also touch on
a host of bilateral tensions between Washington and Moscow.They include
the Kremlin's halt on U.S. adoptions of Russian children and new Russian
restrictions on civil society groups.And the talks will definitely address
the ethnic Chechen brothers suspected of killing three people and injuring
over 200 in Boston earlier this month.Kerry told reporters Tuesday his upcoming
trip to Russia is "overdue."

1 opening.The park services decision will save U.S. taxpayers roughly $150,000,
but it would have cost the cites of Cody and Jackson Hole
much more because they depend on park-related tourism.In response, city
officials held a joint fundraiser and collected enough money to pay the
state to clear the roads, ensuring the gates will be open on
time.We needed to act, and if there was a way that we
could make a difference we wanted to do that because people rely
on that opening date, said Mayor Nancy Tia Brown. And the moment
that the park gate opens, things are different in Cody."Officials told Fox
many of the donations came from businesses that stood to lose revenue
if the gates didnt open on time for the tens of thousands
of visitors."We work on a 20-week tourism season, and if the first
two weeks are going to be taken out because the park's not
open, that's a big deal," said James Blair, of Blair Hotels.In central
Florida, a Head Start program directed to cut 5 percent from its
budget as a result of sequester decided to temporarily stop contributions
to the employee-retirement fund, instead of cutting services. The decision
was made with support from staffers, according to The Tampa Bay Times.The
program provides child care and other services for preschool children from
low-income families and for disabled children from families of all incomes.

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">ised Watt as a first-rate selection. Both were
classmates at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Bowles, the
Democrat in a debt-tackling partnership with former Republican Sen. Alan
Simpson of Wyoming, said Watt brings "a bright mind, great work habits
and an understanding of how Washington works to the job."Hugh McColl, former
Bank of America chairman and CEO, also welcomed Watt's nomination. McColl
said he has known Watt for four decades, first meeting him through
his brother-in-law, former Rep. John Spratt, D-S.C., who attended Yale Law
School at the same time as Watt."What he brings to everything, doesn't
matter the subject, is an open mind," McColl said. "He has clarity
of thought."Charlotte is a major banking center, and the top donors to
Watt's political campaigns over the years have been bank political action
committees and bank officials and employees.His nomination comes nearly
a year after DeMarco, who has been acting director, stood by a
decision to bar Fannie and Freddie from reducing principal for borrowers
at risk of foreclosure, resisting pressure from the administration. DeMarco
long has opposed allowing the mortgage giants to offer principal reduction.In
March, attorneys general from nine states, led by Democrats Eric Schneiderman
of New York and Martha Coakley of Massachusetts, sent Obama a letter
saying that Fannie and Freddie under DeMarco have been a "direct impediment
to our economic recovery."
tion, finished third despite putting
$150,000 of his own cash into the race.While Gomez easily outraised his
challengers he also loaned his campaign at least $600,000.The campaign,
the third U.S. Senate race in Massachusetts in the past four years,
was marked in part by the relatively low voter turnout. That turnout
was likely hampered by the April 15 bombing and the search for
the bombers, which consumed the attention of residents across Massachusetts.In
the town of Wayland, in Markey's congressional district, voters trickled
in to polling places.Holly Zaitchik, a retired Boston University professor,
said she voted for Markey because he's "he's done a terrific job
of being there when anything important happens" in Washington.Zaitchik also
thought the marathon attack might discourage turnout among voters."There
are a lot of people who are still down and not wanting
to participate in things," she said. "It's disheartening."Markey, who's
from Malden and has served in the U.S. House since 1976, and
Gomez will be on the June 25 special election ballot along with
Richard Heos, an independent from Woburn.Democratic Gov. Deval Patrick had
named his former chief of staff, William "Mo" Cowan, to fill Kerry's
seat on an interim basis until after the special election.
