Doggone it, world's smallest puppy! And doggone it, who left the mic 'on'?

Meet Beyonce, a mixed breed that's possibly the world's smallest puppy. She's a Survivor, all right. She was born prematurely and the vet actually performed CPR to save her life. Here's one story, with a YouTube video:

My own mini schnauzer, Killer, was very small as a puppy (he is still small) but not as diminutive as Beyonce...

Meanwhile, what do world leaders say to each other when they think no one else is listening? Well, at a nuclear security summit in South Korea, US President Barack Obama asked soon-to-be-replaced-by-Putin Russian President Dmitri Medvedev for more time, in the face of Obama's hawkish Republican rivals -- ie, to hold off talks on the planned US missile defence system in Europe until Obama is re-elected. Russia opposes the US missile system bacause Moscow alleges that it is aimed at Russia.

Neither man knew that a reporter's mic was turned on. Who needs WikiLeaks to spill the beans! Here's a link, with an ABC News video, and part of the embarrassing transcript:

President Obama: On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved but it's important for him to give me space.

President Medvedev: Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you.

President Obama: This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility.

President Medvedev: I understand. I [will] transmit this information to Vladimir.

Meanwhile, Medvedev himself became a target of ridicule as a "lame duck" "seat warmer" by many Russians, as a result of his "I will transmit this information to Vladimir" remark above:
