PARIS (AP) — Filmmaker Roman Polanski has abandoned plans to preside over the French equivalent of the Oscars, after protests from France's women's rights minister and feminist groups prompted by decades-old U.S. sex charges against him. "Deeply saddened" by the renewed criticism, Polanski decided not to lead the Feb. 24 Cesars Awards "so as not to disrupt the Cesars ceremony, which should be devoted to cinema and not to the designation of its president," according to a statement from Polanski's lawyer Herve Temime.

SYDNEY (AP) — U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to pull out of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, as promised, is prompting other member countries to seek ways to salvage the trade pact. Trump says he favors one-on-one agreements with other nations rather than multinational pacts like the TPP, which would have included markets comprising 40 percent of world GDP and was eventually meant to be the foundation for a wider pan-Pacific trading bloc. Advocates of the TPP said it would set a "gold standard" for modern trade rules... Читать дальше...

Kansas has been the hottest team in the country, reeling off 18 straight wins since its season-opening loss to Indiana. Both games this week are in two of the toughest road environments in college basketball. West Virginia is a difficult team to play anywhere with its suffocating defense, and the Mountaineers (15-4, 4-3) will be playing angry after losing to Oklahoma and Kansas State their past two games. Kentucky lost point guard De'Aaron Fox to a foot injury against South Carolina on Saturday but still beat the Gamecocks 85-69. Читать дальше...

TOKYO (AP) — Asian shares were mixed Tuesday as uncertainty mounted over U.S. President Donald Trump's trade and regulatory policies.

The series will follow a pair of regular old unpowered parents who discover that their children possess mutant powers (superpowers, for those not in the know) and are forced to go on the run from a decidedly anti-mutant government that wants to lock them up in cages or worse.

To have an [episode] ... where so much is revealed and there's so much talk for the entire time, it felt like doing a one-act play, out there on a ledge with a damn good scene partner.

[...] let's suppose he was telling the truth and that Jesse will appear in the upcoming third season of the series.
