Obama Appeals to Wary Lawmakers on Syria Sep 6th 2013, 23:21, by webdesk@voanews.com (Cindy Saine) As members of Congress return to Washington from their summer recess, President Barack Obama is lobbying skeptical lawmakers for the authority to use military force against Syria as a response to chemical attacks.

Olympics-Baseball/Softball Hope for Last-minute Olympic Home Run Sep 5th 2013, 21:42, by webdesk@voanews.com (Reuters) Outsider sports, baseball and softball, bidding to rejoin the Olympics as one sport, are hoping to reel in International Olympic Committee [IOC] votes on Saturday with a financial lure. The two sports, excluded from the Olympics in a 2005 vote, have since merged into one federation to boost their chances of re-entering the Olympics in 2020. But with frontrunners wrestling - cut from the 2020 Games program in February only to make the shortlist - and squash battling for inclusion, the ...
