By Sam Webb Threats: North Korea has pledged to hold more rocket and nuclear tests after UN-imposed sanctions. Picture shows a North Korean rocket launch from December North Korea today said it would carry out further rocket launches and a nuclear test that would target the United States, dramatically stepping up its threats against a country it called its 'sworn enemy'. In a statement carried by state media, the top military authority in Pyongyang threatened to wage a 'full-fledged confrontation' against the US for what it calls continued hostility. It comes a day after the UN Security Council agreed to a U.S.-backed resolution to censure and sanction North Korea for a rocket launch in December that breached UN rules.

Following Paul Lambert's sacking at Aston Villa, England's top flight finds itself without a Scottish manager for the first time since 1984 – almost unthinkable for a country that sent down Sir Matt Busby, Bill Shankly, Kenny Dalglish, George Graham and Sir Alex Ferguson to enrich the old First Division and Premier League. Four years ago, Glaswegians Fergie, Dalglish, David Moyes, Alex McLeish, Owen Coyle and Steve Kean traded blows with each other in the Premier League. Paul Lambert was soon to join them, Malkay Mackay and Billy Davies were at the top of the Championship, with Mackay also leading Cardiff to a major cup final.

Four months, fourteen miles and a change of surface separate Wimbledon from this week’s proceedings at the 02 Arena but not much seemed to have altered on Sunday for Andy Murray.

Former president of Poland, Lech Walesa, was a founder of the Solidarity trade union group that helped bring about about the downfall of communism in Poland in 1989. He won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1983 and was the country's president from 1990 to 1995.

(CNN) -- Sigrid Avrillier might be a 65-year-old woman living in Paris, but for four hours each day she is transformed into the legendary Renaissance painter, Peter Paul Rubens. You wouldn't know it to look at her -- a former physics teacher with mousey brown hair and a cheeky gap-toothed smile. But over the last few months Avrillier has come to know Rubens intimately, recreating his every brush stroke, his every color choice. "I live with him," she says. "I become him."

(CNN) -- Despite claims to the contrary, the Syrian government is almost certainly responsible for a blackout Thursday that shut down virtually all Internet service in the country, according to a leading Web security firm. "The Syrian Minister of Information is being reported as saying that the government did not disable the Internet, but instead the outage was caused by a cable being cut," writes Matthew Prince, CEO of CloudFlare. "From our investigation, that appears unlikely to be the case." Fighting again between rebels and forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad disrupted much of Damascus on Friday, and there was no Internet service throughout much of Syria for a second straight day. The airport was closed to flights, and fighting killed another 31 people across the country on Friday, according to an opposition group that counts casualties.

(CNN) -- One was a "nice guy," who was "friendly and very polite" and "just wanted to help everybody." Then there was the "crazed ... animal" -- someone who'd brutally hack to death a man in broad daylight on the streets of London, then tried to justify it and suggested there was more violence to come. Two vastly descriptions, for one person: Michael Adebolajo. While British police have not named any of the men arrested in connection with Wednesday's gory slaying of British soldier Lee Rigby, one of them didn't hide his identity at the time.

Neither did they make a mistake by backing every player bar Matt Prior who let them down so badly at Lord’s. But they did mess up in taking so long to let the public know their third Test plans. There was never any question of Cook jumping or being pushed, but in waiting until gone 3.30pm to announce a 13-man squad for the Ageas Bowl on Sunday, the selectors allowed speculation to run wild.

(CNN) -- Today is the 11th anniversary of the opening of the prison at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba, and like the past three anniversaries, it comes with President Barack Obama's campaign promises to close it unmet. From Day 1, the story of Guantanamo, or Gitmo as it came to be called, has been one of injustice and illegality, the violation of human rights and a stain on America's global reputation. Locked within its walls are the stories of hundreds of men who have lost years -- and, for nine of those men, their lives. In 2013, the story of Guantanamo is not just one of the failure to close the prison after so much time but also one of pragmatic failure of missed opportunities to take available, practical steps to reduce the prison's population.

Syriza leader Alexis Tsipras  (pictured) has rejected suggestions that Athens is under pressure to come to terms with its creditors by the end of next month The euro stands on the brink of its biggest ever crisis today as Greeks vote in their general election – with the anti-austerity party Syriza maintaining a four-point lead in the polls. With the euro at its lowest value against sterling in seven years, a Syriza victory could trigger panic in the EU and the eurozone – risking bankruptcy for Greece and its exit from the euro.

Madonna has been branded 'disrespectful' after apparently comparing herself to Martin Luther King Jr, Nelson Mandela and Bob Marley in a bid to promote her new album. In a series of Twitter and Instagram posts, the 56-year-old singer compared her '#rebelheart' to those of the civil rights activist, South African anti-apartheid revolutionary and reggae musician. The Queen of Pop did so by transposing her new album's artwork - which features her face covered in black rope - onto iconic images of the trio, before posting the Photoshopped pictures online. Alongside the photo of King - who famously delivered his 'I Have A Dream' speech during the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom - she wrote: 'This #rebelheart had a dream!'

In a one-time conservative 'red' state whose map now looks pock-marked with 'blue' enclaves, Terry McAuliffe, the former Democratic National Committee chairman and long-time Clinton confidante, won a close governor's election Tuesday that is expected to set the tone for broader political battles in 2014 and 2016. McAuliffe, the fundraising envelope-pusher who cooked up the idea to sell access to the Lincoln Bedroom under President Bill Clinton, is now positioned to navigate Virginia into the Democratic Party's column when Hillary Clinton runs for the top job in 2016. The governor-elect had held solid double-digit polling leads over Ken Cuccinelli, the state's tea party-backed Republican attorney general.

Secretary of State John Kerry on Monday promised ‘intense and sustained’ U.S. support for Iraq, but said the divided country would only survive if its leaders took urgent steps to bring it together. Hours before Kerry arrived in Baghdad, Sunni tribes who have joined a militant takeover of northern Iraq seized the only legal crossing point with Jordan, security sources said, leaving troops with no presence along the entire western frontier which includes some of the Middle East's most important trade routes.

(CNN) -- Out with seekers and brooms. In with stirrups and hooves. This is horseball, where rugby meets basketball on horseback -- but players have more fun comparing it to quidditch, the sport of Harry Potter's wizarding world. "I usually ask people if they've seen the Harry Potter movies," says British horseball player Jamie Gibson. "Quidditch is the nearest comparison I can think of. That usually gets people going." While Potter and teammates pick up gruesome injuries with disturbing ease playing quidditch, full-contact horseball does at least feature helmets. "It looks a little bit violent, but it isn't," says Frederico Cannas, the sport's president, who began playing as a teenager in his native Portugal.

United Nations (CNN) -- Arab and Western diplomats spoke in support Tuesday of a U.N. Security Council draft resolution that calls for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to step down, while representatives from Russia and China slammed it as meddlesome. More effective than the resolution, Russia and China said, would be the fostering of dialogue within the country. "The council cannot impose the parameters for an internal political settlement," said Vitaly Churkin, Russia's ambassador to the United Nations. "We are convinced that at a time of intense internal political crisis, the role of the international community should not be one of exacerbating conflict, nor meddling by use of economic sanctions or military force."

By David Mccormack and Associated Press Reporter Capt. Gregory McWherter, a former commanding officer of the Blue Angels, is accused of 'tolerating an inappropriate work environment' in two spells as leader between 2008 and 2012 A former commanding officer of the U.S. Navy's flight demonstration squadron, the Blue Angels, has been removed from his current post after accusations that he ‘tolerated an inappropriate work environment.’ Capt. Gregory McWherter allowed, and in some cases encouraged, sexually explicit humor and inappropriate comments among members of the famed precision flying team, the U.S. Navy contended on Wednesday. McWherter was relieved of duty as executive officer of Naval Base Coronado on Friday after a complaint was filed with the Navy's inspector general about an ‘inappropriate command climate’ at the Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron based at Naval Air Station Pensacola, Florida.

(CNN) -- Tibetans have long occupied a special place in the heart of the West. But that has not done them very much good. Over the past year, as the world focused on the Arab uprisings, and as China's growth shadowed over a weak global economy, the Tibetan struggle for autonomy entered a disturbing phase. From a distance, it might have looked as if China thoroughly succeeded in crushing Tibet's hope. But at home, in a western part of China, Tibetans are giving notice that their struggle is not over. Chinese authorities would do well to reconsider their strong-arm approach, because with or without Western attention, the Tibetans will continue their fight.

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Human rights groups are asking President-elect Barack Obama to pay early attention to the crisis in Sudan's troubled Darfur region, where government forces have waged a bloody war against militias that some international critics have characterized as genocide. Sudan President Omar al-Bashir has agreed to a cease-fire with rebels, which could give the U.S. an opening. "We've seen the military surge in Iraq. We've seen the development surge that NATO's announced for Afghanistan," said Darfur activist John Prendergast. "What's really needed in Sudan and the broader Horn and East Africa region is a peace surge." Prendergast's ENOUGH organization to combat genocide is a project of the Center for American Progress, a Democratic think tank run by Obama's transition co-chairman, John Podesta.

Washington (CNN) -- Jewish voters, a typically reliable bloc for the Democratic Party, are now the focus of Democrats intent on keeping their support and Republicans who see an opportunity to pull them in after New York's recent special congressional election. Longtime New York Democratic strategist Hank Sheinkopf said the election, in which a Republican won the historically Democratic district, was in part a reaction to the president's approach to Israel. Sheinkopf said the contest served as a "liberating device" for Jewish voters and not just Orthodox Jews, who tend to be more socially conservative. "It is very unlikely he gets large portions of the pro-Israel community back; it's too late. Something extraordinarily miraculous would have to occur," Sheinkopf said. "There is a general sense of betrayal that this guy just doesn't understand who these Jews are.

Washington (CNN) -- Dashing the hopes of Democratic lawmakers Sunday, Sen. Joseph Lieberman signaled he would oppose a health care bill that includes a proposal to expand Medicare to people as young as 55. The independent Connecticut senator has told Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada, that he would vote against the Medicare at 55 proposal. He also said he would oppose cloture and work with the GOP if it ends up in the final version of the bill, two Democratic sources told CNN Sunday. Unanimous Republican opposition so far means Senate Democrats need all 60 votes in their caucus, which includes Lieberman, to pass the sweeping bill.

CLARKSDALE, Mississippi (CNN) -- Pat Davis was just 10 years old when two black men came into his father's barbecue joint in the heart of the Mississippi Delta in 1947. A huge fuss ensued, with four racists shouting every name in the book. Pat Davis operates Abe's BBQ. His father was a Lebanese immigrant in Mississippi and defied segregation. "My daddy went over to their table and said, 'These are people who want to eat just like you want to eat. You don't bother them. You leave them alone,' " Davis says, the incident seared in his mind six decades later. "They told Daddy he could lose his business by letting black people come in."

Editor's Note: This is the fourth in a five-part series exploring Judge Sonia Sotomayor's background and life with those who know her, revealing the experiences that might shape her views as a Supreme Court justice. Sonia Sotomayor is flanked by her supervisor, Warren Murray, and D.A. Robert Morgenthau, right, in 1983. NEW YORK (CNN) -- Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor graduated with honors from Ivy League schools. But she may have learned some of her most memorable lessons as a young prosecutor, following police into abandoned tenements and tracking down witnesses on the grimy streets of New York. Sotomayor joined the Manhattan District Attorney's office in 1979 during an epic crime wave. Muggings, burglaries and assaults were rampant; homicides topped 1,800 a year. She was recruited from Yale Law School by Robert M. Morgenthau, Manhattan's district attorney. She was 25, and her starting salary was $17,000.

(CNN) -- It's a rare thing for the threads of an ongoing crisis to be pulled so closely together in a discrete event, compressed in time and space as if they were part of a dramatization, as they were when President Obama met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu this month in the Oval Office. This session had it all: primal Israeli, Iranian, American and even Arab interests; nuclear proliferation and global energy supplies; existential dangers; war and peace. The meeting was no doubt made more difficult by the strained relations between the two leaders, but in truth, this one needed little personal antipathy to make it hard. Even though both men had announced that Iran's acquisition of a nuclear weapon was unacceptable, there was no final agreement on how to prevent that from happening. In many ways, I suspect, the two men talked past one another.

(CNN) -- Sometimes it feels like President Clinton never left the public spotlight. Although there were moments during the 2008 campaign when it seemed he was as much of a target within his own party as were the Republicans, these days Clinton is everywhere and Democrats want him by their side. Members of President Obama's campaign team say Clinton will offer them his services next year. The re-emergence of President Clinton in Obama's circles has been gradual. It has taken time to recover from the tensions that flared during the 2008 Democratic primaries, when some Democrats accused Clinton of making racist remarks following Obama's victory over Sen. Hillary Clinton in South Carolina. But over the past year, the White House has brought him back on more and more occasions to strengthen Obama's standing.
