MOSCOW -- President Vladimir Putin has called Sergei Skripal, the ex-spy who was poisoned with a military grade nerve agent in Britain, a traitor and a scumbag. It was the first time Putin directly condemned Skripal, who spent weeks hospitalized with his daughter after both were poisoned in the city of Salisbury in March.

He reiterated Russia s claim that it has nothing to do with the poisoning.He said on Wednesday the former agent was of no interest to the Kremlin since he was tried in Russia and exchanged in a spy swap in 2010.Speaking last month at an economic conference in far eastern Russia, Putin insisted that the two men identified by Britain as the culprits in the attack were ordinary Russian citizens, not members of the military.

NEW YORK -- Call them k nike dunk low nockoffs. Rock-smashing monkeys in Brazil make stone flakes that look a lot like tools made by our ancient ancestors.Scientists watched as Capuchin monkeys in a national park pounded stones against each other, splitting off sharp-edged flakes that resemble cutting tools used by the forerunners of humans.The monkeys ignored the flakes, focusing on the damaged stones instead. So they clearly werenrsquo;t deliberately making them as tools. But if ancient monkeys did t hoka schuhe he same thing, their unintentional handiwork could be mistaken for deliberate tool-making by human ancestors, researchers said.The scientists are not suggesting that any stone tools attributed so far to human forerunners were instead made by monkeys, said Tomos Proffitt of Oxford University in England. Those tools, which date back as far as 3.3 million years ago, are more complex than salomon gtx what the Brazilian monkeys make, he said in a telephone interview.But as scientists look for earlier and earlier tools, their findings may begin to resemble the monkey flakes more strongly, said Proffitt, lead author of a study released Wednesday by the journal Nature. And the new work shows that such flakes are not exclusively the calling card of our ancient ancestors, called hominins, he said. If somebody finds very old simple flakes, you canrsquo;t assume it is hominin. You have to say it might be produced by an extinct monkey or ape, Proffitt said.
