The U.S. government shut down on Saturday after a spending bill that would fund the government through Feb. 16 was voted against in the Senate. The shutdown continued for a third day as the Senate on Sunday failed to reach an agreement to break an impasse before the work week began in Washington. (Xinhua/Yin Bogu)
