Washington---US lawmakers paused for a moment of silence Friday to honor the victims of recent deadly terrorist attacks in France.
Speaker John Boehner brought the House of Representatives to a standstill for about 10 seconds in the midst of a vote series to pay respects to those killed this week at a satirical magazine's offices in Paris and during a Friday siege at a supermarket in the city.
