@placeholder may not have been at the table, but the summit's message was clearly directed at Russia.
(CNN) -- U.S. President Barack Obama had stern words for his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin over Russia's actions in Ukraine, following a meeting Thursday of G7 leaders in Brussels, Belgium, at which Russia was excluded. Putin "has a chance to get back into a lane of international law," Obama said. But for this to happen, he said, Putin must take steps over the coming weeks that include recognizing Ukraine's new President-elect Petro Poroshenko, stopping the flow of weapons over the border into Ukraine and ceasing Russian support for pro-Russia separatists in Ukraine. "We cannot simply allow drift," Obama said, speaking alongside British Prime Minister David Cameron following bilateral talks. @highlight NEW: State media: Russia's ambassador will attend Poroshenko's inauguration @highlight Obama says Putin has a chance to "get back into a lane of international law" @highlight G7 leaders warn Russia they are ready to impose more sanctions over Ukraine @highlight Russia's Putin and Ukraine's new President-elect do not rule out meeting in France

These attacks by al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, which has long clashed with Yemen's military, happened in the Arab nation's Shabwa province, more than 100 miles to the east of the capital, which has been in political strife for weeks after minority Houthi rebels took over. Also Friday, at least three more nations announced they were temporarily closing their embassies in the Yemeni capital of Sanaa because of deteriorating security conditions, including neighboring Saudi Arabia. @highlight Three of six freed AQAP prisoners were facing death penalty @highlight Saudi Arabia, Germany and Italy join the U.S. and other nations in suspending embassy operations in Yemen @highlight The moves come after Houthi rebels took control of Yemen's capital

"It can be very depressing," she said in @placeholder, in and around which tens of thousands were killed in the quake.
(CNN) -- Hours after January 12's earthquake in Haiti, Drs. Claude and Yolene Surena were treating more than 100 wounded people -- not in a medical facility but outside their own Port-au-Prince home. City medical facilities were decimated or overwhelmed, and makeshift triage areas like the one in the Surenas' yard tried to keep patients alive long enough to get the next available hospital bed. Yolene called her daughter in Maryland to assure her the couple was fine and to make a request.

TSA says on its blog: "If you are taking pictures at or near the checkpoint, don't be surprised if someone (@placeholder, airport police, or a curious passenger) asks you what you're up to.
(CNN) -- Armed with just a video-enabled cell phone and a YouTube account, California resident John Tyner sparked a nationwide controversy over new TSA backscatter imaging machines and pat-down procedures during the busy holiday air travel season. Tyner is the man who told a TSA agent not to touch his "junk" while he refused a pat-down search November 13 at a San Diego, California, airport. As Americans fly to and from holiday gatherings this season, some travelers -- anxious about their rights at airport security checkpoints -- may try to follow Tyner's lead and video their TSA encounters.

Morgan noted that @placeholder similarly underwent a pattern of drug and alcohol abuse not unlike Sheen's.
(CNN) -- "I met him (Lance Armstrong) once at a party," Charlie Sheen told Piers Morgan, "and I'm assuming he was in a bad mood, because he wasn't the friendliest guy in the world." The Hollywood veteran spoke candidly to the CNN host about Lance Armstrong, Lindsay Lohan, battles with "Two and a Half Men" executive producer Chuck Lorre, fatherhood, becoming a grandfather, toning down his bad boy ways, and more. "He was rude to you?" asked Morgan. "Yes. I'm sure people have said that about me from time to time; not too often, though, because I'm pretty approachable." Sheen recalled that the encounter occurred about five or six years ago. @highlight Charlie Sheen: "When I look back at the pilot of 'Two and a Half,' it was an absolute gem" @highlight On 'Men' today: "I think you don't realize how important your anchor is until you don't have it" @highlight Fame and excess "everything that you thought it was going to be" followed by "emptiness"

One individual came in and out of the house between when @placeholder last saw the toddler and reported him missing, but that person is not considered a suspect.
(CNN) -- The parents of a Texas toddler are struggling for answers days after their young son mysteriously disappeared from a house full of people. Sabrina Benitez, the 18-month-old's mother, said she believes the boy was abducted -- insisting it would have been all but impossible for her boy to go outside. Even if he did, Benitez said, the toddler would have been smart enough to try to get back in or would have been spotted by now. But New Braunfels Police Lt. Michael Penshorn said as of Monday, it's most likely that young Joshua Davis Jr. left the home without anyone noticing or taking him. @highlight Family members and Texas police are looking for 18-month-old Joshua Davis Jr. @highlight Joshua's mother says the boy went to another room and hasn't been seen since @highlight She fears the toddler was abducted, while police say the boy most likely left unwittingly
