In this Nov. 9, 2013, photo, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, third left, meets with EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs, Catherine Ashton, center, and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, third right, at the Iran Nuclear talks in Geneva, Switzerland. The deadlocked international effort to sign a nuclear deal with Iran has spurred a global blame game over who walked away from the negotiating table and why. It's a war of words playing out in public statements from top officials and across social media, with a bluntness that stands in stark contrast to the secretive and diplomatic nature of the negotiations themselves. And it raises questions about whether the debate will compound the years of mistrust between Iran and the West when the parties reconvene in Geneva for another round of talks next week.

This photo taken Jan. 3, 2013 shows Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, right, with Sue Birch, Executive Director of the Colorado Department of Health Care Policy and Financing, center, speaking with an attendee of a news conference where Hickenlooper announced a plan to expand Medicaid coverage for adults as called for by President Barack Obama's federal health care law, at the state Capitol in Denver. The underdog of government health care programs is emerging as the rare early success story of President Barack Obama's technologically challenged health overhaul. A yearslong effort to reach eligible residents apparently succeeded in generating the increased demand. The state has installed self-service kiosks in community clinics, hospitals and libraries to sign people up. And a year ago, nurses statewide agreed to help by promoting Medicaid to low-income uninsured patients. "We said to our nurses: 'OK, you're our bounty hunters. You go find our patients,'" Birch said.
