Obama's Iraq address: Afghan war looms large over speech

At what time he speaks from the Oval Office on Tuesday nighttime, Barack Obama will transport one of the hardest addresses of his government. All right, he's had hard ones previous to - on Afghanistan, health care and the BP oil spill.

The Obama direction had hoped that by now a third democratically designated government would be performance in Baghdad, but five months after national elections in March, a following stalemate drags on.

Younger brothers delay girls' sex drive - scientists

Scientists at the University of Western Australia found girls with a younger brother have sex an average 14 months later than those without. Girls with both younger brothers and sisters become sexually active 23 months later.

The explanation could be that older sisters are preoccupied with looking after their younger brothers because sons require more care from their families than daughters do - a theory supported by evidence from other mammals.

Boys tend to be born later than girls, weigh more at birth, and be weaned at a later age. Other evidence suggests that girls tend to help to care for their younger siblings more than boys do.

The study also found that girls with older brothers first menstruated 11 months later than those who did not.

The study, which questioned 273 adults about the age when they had become sex active, is published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society.

Pakistani floods could further hurt unstable nation as military focuses on aid

The floods have flooded an area approximately the size of Italy, displaced 12 percent of the inhabitants and destroyed billions of dollars worth of communications and crops.

White House: Blast won't derail Iraq transition

The deadly suicide bombing outside a Baghdad army headquarters won't halt Iraq's transition to democracy — or the U.S. troop withdrawal, the White House said Tuesday.

Deputy Press Secretary Bill Burton said both are "firmly on track."

U.S. troops in Iraq are scheduled to end their role in major combat operations by the end of the month. The remaining force of 50,000 is to focus on training, backup and counterterrorism.

Tuesday's blast, which killed dozens of recruits waiting to enlist, was one of the bloodiest in months. And it came as Iraqi political leaders remain deadlocked on forming a government five months after parliamentary elections.

"There obviously are still people who want to derail the advances that the Iraqi people have made toward democracy," Burton told reporters aboard President Barack Obama's plane, as Obama headed for a day of politicking in Seattle. "But they are firmly on track. And we're confident that we're moving toward the end of our combat mission."
