LAS VEGAS — Rachel Howard was at the bottom of the euphoric dog pile last season when sixth-seeded USF upset top-seeded BYU in the West Coast Conference tournament championship, and she’d love to relive that moment. “I think it’s vital to actually speak about it,” the senior guard said after Sunday’s practice. During the stretch, Howard has averaged 25 points per game, including a 37-point outburst, and is shooting 18-for-36 from three-point range.

Another asked the Academic All-American if he also played piano (he does). [...] the running back was asked if there was anything he couldn’t do. “There’s a lot I can’t do,” McCaffrey said, smiling.

SEOUL — North Korea launched four ballistic missiles from its long-range rocket launch site early Monday, the South Korean military said. The launch prompted South Korean security officials to call for the early deployment of an advanced U.S. missile defense system that has provoked China. The type of missile fired was not immediately clear, but Noh said it was unlikely that they were intercontinental ballistic missiles, which the North had recently threatened to test-launch. During a meeting of the South Korea’s National Security Council... Читать дальше...

In his first start since a five-shot victory at Riviera that made him No. 1 in the world, Johnson grabbed his fourth World Golf Championships title Sunday by blowing by some of golf’s biggest names and then delivering his best shot at the end to secure a one-shot victory over Tommy Fleetwood of England. Johnson won for the fifth time in his past 15 starts on the PGA Tour, including a major and two World Golf Championships. [...] at nearly 7,800 feet above sea level at Chapultepec Golf Club in Mexico City, Johnson kept soaring. Читать дальше...

In this week’s episode of “The Walking Dead,” Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and Michonne (Danai Gurira) hit the road in an attempt to fulfill the promise of guns they made to the mystery junkyard group. “Richonne” fans got plenty of fodder this week, as we see the pair camping out, scavenging, fighting walkers, and — ahem — getting intimate more than once.

Showtime drama’s Iranian intelligence chief hits the shores of New York on Sunday’s episode Though many fans were happy to see Shaun Toub, the show’s Machiavellian Iranian intelligence chief Majid Javadi, return to the Showtime drama’s sixth season, his presence is not without its consequences.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is preparing to sign a revised executive order temporarily barring the entry of people from certain Muslim-majority countries and halting the nation's refugee program.

According to a draft version... Читать дальше...

Like I’m yelling at all the nice people walking by. In response to Hugh Jackman saying Reynolds was “lurking in my shadow”: Referencing “The Notebook” parody that had Reynolds locking lips with Conan O’Brien: Someone should bottle the unspeakable emotional terrorism between Brides and Maids of Honor. No matter which kids book I read to my screaming baby on an airplane, the moral of the story is always something about a vasectomy. After this morning’s diaper, my daughter finally earned the teardrop tattoo on her face.

NEW YORK — The Warriors noticed something was different during pregame warm-ups Sunday. “We were trying to make our own beat on the court,” Stephen Curry recalled with a smile. Speaking to reporters after Golden State’s 112-105 win over New York, he railed against MSG’s decision not to have any in-game entertainment during the first half. To completely change that, to me I think that was disrespectful to everyone from Michael Levine to Rick Welts, all these people who’ve done all these things... Читать дальше...

The Warriors’ head coach showed Curry that, despite the two-time reigning NBA MVP’s continued shooting woes, his plus-minus was solid. Having the ball in his hands more allowed Curry to do what he does best: create his own shot and make open jumpers. By the time the Warriors left Sunday for a five-city, eight-day road trip, Curry had long assuaged concerns about how he fits in with Golden State’s prized offseason addition. [...] even some of the best shooters in NBA history aren’t immune from the occasional shooting rut. Читать дальше...

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea on Monday fired "several" banned ballistic missiles that flew about 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) into waters off its east coast, South Korea's military said, an apparent reaction to huge military drills by Washington and Seoul that Pyongyang insists are an invasion rehearsal. Seoul and Washington call their military drills on the Korean Peninsula, which remains in a technical state of war because the 1950-53 Korean War ended with an armistice and not a peace treaty, defensive and routine.
