Two of the female tourists suffered facial injuries during the late morning attack at Marseille's Saint Charles train station and one of the two also had a possible eye injury, a spokeswoman for the Marseille...

NEW YORK (AP) — The Stephen King adaption "It" continues to scare up record ticket sales, taking in an estimated $60 million in its second week and leaving a paltry $7.5 million for Darren Aronofsky's audacious genre-bending psychological thriller "mother!" New Line and Warner Bros.' "It" remained easily the top draw in North American theaters. It slid 51 percent from last week's unexpectedly sensational opening of $123 million. Most had expected "It" to open to about half that. Paramount Pictures' "mother!" has horror elements... Читать дальше...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Florida's economy has long thrived on one import above all: People. Until Irma struck this month, the state was adding nearly 1,000 residents a day — 333,471 in the past year, akin to absorbing a city the size of St. Louis or Pittsburgh. Every jobseeker, retiree or new birth, along with billions spent by tourists, helped fuel Florida's propulsive growth and economic gains. Yet Hurricane Irma's destructive floodwaters renewed fears about how to manage the state's population boom as the risks of climate change intensify. Читать дальше...

HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — At Connecticut's only maximum-security psychiatric hospital, staff members put a diaper on a patient's head, threw food at him, poured water over him, put salt in his coffee, kicked him and placed a mop on his head after cleaning a floor, according to a state report. Thirty-one staff members at the Whiting Forensic Division hospital in Middletown have been suspended, and nine have been arrested. More arrests are expected, police say, and calls are pouring in with more allegations of misconduct and abuse... Читать дальше...

If you were able to watch the entire three-hour show of the 2017 Emmy Awards, you are officially the hardest of hardcore TV fans. If not, don't worry. You're totally not alone, and we got your back. Most people were excited to see the highlights of the 69th Annual Emmy Awards -- the Trump references and the best Stephen Colbert jokes, or even just the one or two really groundbreaking wins -- but let's be honest: not everyone has the time these days to sit around and wait for it. That's where we come in. Читать дальше...

It's not that long ago that Stephen Colbert was a goofy fake-news correspondent for The Daily Show or hamming it up as "Stephen Colbert," host of The Colbert Report. But his career has taken off like a hummingbird in a rocket ship who is late for dinner reservations, and his gig as host of CBS' Late Show has afforded him TV's greatest honor: emcee of the Emmys! But how did Colbert do on Sunday night? A rousing opening number was well-received by fans and showcased some talents most didn't know he had, namely his singing and dancing! Читать дальше...

Netflix: Streaming shows were eligible to compete at the Emmys in 2008. Netflix entered the game in 2013 with House of Cards and fielded another three drama series nominees this year. Hulu finally entered the race this year with The Handmaid's Tale, which then became the first streaming show to win a series award. Netflix probably isn't too happy and you have to believe it's in the middle of a huge postmortem right now -- given how it's been rapid-fire canceling shows left and right lately -- and figuring out not only how to change the game...

No one is more thankful for a Donald Trump presidency than Saturday Night Live after its slew of Primetime Emmy wins. The sketch show now has a total of 66 Emmy trophies after this year's six trophies. Kate McKinnon broke the show's major acting category curse last year, but a tumultuous year of political sketches thanks to the never-ending parade of Trump scandals put SNL front and center at this year's award show. On Sunday night, the series took home prizes for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series... Читать дальше...

The presenters are usually the least memorable part of any awards show, and the Emmys is no different -- unless the stars of 9 to 5 are the ones reading the teleprompter, in which case all bets are off. And when Dolly Parton, Lily Tomlin, and Jane Fonda took the stage midway through the 69th Primetime Emmy Awards to announce the award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series, they came ready to roast a certain somebody... albeit not by name. As the women took the stage, Jane Fonda opened... Читать дальше...
