That kind of criticism may further be undermined by the manner in which Sarkozy described the converging views he and Obama exchanged during their t?te-?-t?te before meeting the press. The discussion ranged, they said, from Iraq to Iran, Afghanistan to Darfur, and issues like global warning to what Sarkozy called the "moralization of capitalism's financial markets." The men said they also agreed on the need to continue strengthening transatlantic relations and searching for multilateral solutions to global problems...
...young daughters: "Typically they last about 15 minutes at one of these exhibitions." One-and-a-half hours later, Stetson's children were still busy turning their own faces into digitized kaleidoscopes on a computer installation.

Maybe, but the U.S. President evidently regards straightforwardness as the highest praise he can bestow on his counterparts--at least until he decides it no longer fits the bill...
...nouvelle cuisine and watch first-run movies on personal DVD players, while recumbent on fully flat, 78-inch-long beds. The bed is the centerpiece of the positively decadent 21 square feet of space allocated to each passenger, which also features a companion seat and a retractable table for t?te-?-t?tes. The benefits aren't just limited to the air. With so few passengers to process, boarding, disembarking and baggage retrieval should be a breeze...
