                      Turkish Protesters Clash with Police

   Protesters have clashed with police in the Turkish capital Monday, the
   11th straight day of demonstrations.
   Police in Ankara fired water cannons to disperse protesters, who
   responded by throwing rocks at security forces.
   The latest clashes come just hours after Turkish Prime Minister Recep
   Tayyip Erdogan told thousands of his supporters in Ankara that he has
   limited patience with the anti-government protests.
   Mr. Erdogan said Sunday that marchers would "pay a price," adding that
   he would have to "speak the language" they understand.
   The prime minister urged his supporters to avoid violence and use local
   elections next year to "teach a lesson" to their opponents.
   Three people have been killed and thousands hurt since the protests
   began against government plans to tear down a public park in Istanbul.
   They have since turned into protests against what marchers call the
   prime minister`s imposition of his Islamist views on a secular nation.
