...attendees themselves were even more strident. "The bonus bubble burst tonight," said Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt, whose country holds the E.U. presidency. He said inaction on bonuses would be a "provocation in Europe, especially when set against a steep rise in unemployment." And British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said there would be no return to the bonus structure of the past. "I am personally appalled by some of the practices that have been going on at some institutions," he said...
That theory is far from certain. While it's clear that humans absorb weak radiation through handsets (the EWG report noted the particular vulnerability of children, whose skulls, according to a French study, absorb twice as much cell-phone radiation as those of adults), what's not clear is whether that radiation causes harm. Scientists are waiting for the publication of a $30 million, 14,000-person international study called Interphone, which is meant to nail down the answer once and for all.

Summit meetings, in particular those with 20 heads of state in attendance, are usually scripted, staid affairs. That's especially true when these get-togethers involve Chinese President Hu Jintao, whose private persona varies little from his public style. As befits someone who is running the world's most populous country, he is intensely disciplined and extremely cautious. On Tuesday, he will meet one on one with U.S. President Barack Obama on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly in New York City before heading off to Pittsburgh, Pa., for the G-20 summit on Sept. 24-25. This...
