Dispatchers at 911 centers would give access codes to callers to open the boxes and explain how to use the drug. Supporters of the plan ran a mock trial recently, placing a dummy on the ground in a busy area and asking volunteers to test the lockbox system.

The lesson was part of the indoctrination inflicted by the militants on boys from Iraq's Yazidi religious minority after the extremist group overran the community's towns and villages in northern Iraq. The group forced hundreds of boys, some as young as 7 or 8, into training to become fighters and suicide bombers, infusing them with its murderous ideology. "Even here I'm still very afraid," said 17-year-old Ahmed Ameen Koro, who spoke to The Associated Press in the sprawling Esyan Camp in northern Iraq... Читать дальше...

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump abruptly fired FBI Director James Comey Tuesday, dramatically ousting the nation's top law enforcement official in the midst of an FBI investigation into whether Trump's campaign had ties to Russia's meddling in the election that sent him to the White House.

BEIRUT (AP) — A top Syrian Kurdish official says the U.S. decision to arm Kurdish fighters with heavier weapons will help legitimize the force, which is denounced as a terrorist organization by Turkey.

Alonso’s second career multi-homer game followed almost on the heels of his first, which was Saturday. In the sixth inning, he took Meyer deep again to pass Khris Davis for the A’s lead in homers and move into a tie for second in the league. Cotton already was teetering on the verge of being sent down to Triple-A Nashville when left-hander Sean Manaea returns next week, and Tuesday’s performance may have settled it. Manaea is pitching on the same turn as Cotton, making a rehab appearance with... Читать дальше...

The series now shifts back to TD Garden for a Game 5 matchup Wednesday night.

President Donald Trump is criticizing Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for comments the New York Democrat made in response to the firing of FBI Director James Comey. Aides to President Donald Trump are defending his decision to fire FBI Director James Comey, saying it was needed to restore confidence in the agency, not about any ongoing investigations. Comey's departure from the federal building fueled speculation that he might still appear at the event, but FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller said he would not be there. Читать дальше...

The confrontation began after midnight Wednesday when Buddhist hard-liners entered a Muslim neighborhood claiming some ethnic Rohingya Muslims were hiding "illegally" in the area, a police officer said on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the situation. Violence in Rakhine state flared again last year when Rohingya launched a small insurgency, leading to massive retaliation by Myanmar's army, which rights groups say has killed hundreds of people and forced around 75,000 to flee to neighboring Bangladesh.

A’s bring up outfielder Mark Canha, cut slumping Jaff Decker The A’s recalled right-handed-hitting outfielder Mark Canha on Tuesday and designated lefty-hitting outfielder Jaff Decker for assignment. Canha, who was 2-for-19 in his first stint with Oakland after missing almost all of last year because of hip surgery, hit five homers and drove in 16 runs in 19 games at Triple-A Nashville. Decker, a good defensive outfielder, hit .400 over his first five games with Oakland but was in a 4-for-35 slide. Читать дальше...

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — From a former president disobeying the supreme leader to open discussion of a 1980s mass execution, Iran's presidential election is pushing the boundaries of what can be discussed in public and done online, a small but noticeable shift in the country's clerically overseen polls. The push doesn't portend a dramatic change to the structure of the Islamic Republic, under which Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has the final say over all state matters and clerics...

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — A man who squashed a lemon meringue pie into Qantas Airways chief executive Alan Joyce's face during a public address in Australia said Wednesday he was protesting Joyce's advocacy for same-sex marriage. Overheu, a 67-year-old Christian and former sheep farmer, released a statement accusing Qantas and other companies that support marriage equality of "corporate bullying aimed at social engineering." Joyce has been singled out for criticism by government ministers for... Читать дальше...

New South Korean President Moon Jae-in has named his nominees for prime minister and the country's spy chief as he quickly moves to replace government officials he inherited from the ousted and jailed former president. Moon's decision on Wednesday to nominate Lee Nak-yon as his prime minister was seen as an effort to further win support from people in the southwest Jeolla region, a liberal stronghold where Lee had served as governor and lawmaker.

WEST POINT, N.Y. (AP) — Brothers Noah, Sumner and Cole Ogrydziak entered West Point's grueling world of 6:30 a.m. reveille, 60-pound packs and rigorous course loads on the same day four years ago. The three cadets are now preparing to fling their caps together at graduation this month, marking a rare fraternal trifecta at this storied academy. The first duty stations for the future Army officers are still being worked out, but it's clear to the brothers that their years of being just a short march from one another are numbered.

Senators top Rangers, reach East final for first time since 2007 The Rangers pushed and pushed, but the resilient Senators held off New York — all the way to their first Eastern Conference finals in 10 years. Karlsson had a goal and an assist, Craig Anderson made 37 saves and the Senators eliminated the Rangers with a 4-2 victory in Game 6 of their second-round series Tuesday night. The Rangers outshot the Senators 15-5 in the final period, but couldn’t find the equalizer. Jean-Gabriel Pageau... Читать дальше...

On Tuesday, they placed closer Mark Melancon, who signed a four-year, $62 million contract in December, on the 10-day disabled list with a forearm injury that they called a mild pronator strain. On a day the Giants lost their most important reliever and another game — 6-1 to the Mets — general manager Bobby Evans said he remains relatively confident in a turnaround. Evans based his belief on expectations that the Giants’ core players would return to their usual production levels and that winning... Читать дальше...

[...] the Saeds never made the trip to the Atlanta suburbs because their travel documents expired during the legal wrangling over President Donald Trump's executive orders to limit the refugee program and ban travel from several countries, including Somalia. Refugee groups say the drop has forced them to lay off employees while trapping thousands of people in war-torn nations, overflowing refugee camps and dangerous living conditions amid the world's largest refugee crisis in modern history.

Green scored seven of his 16 points in overtime, helping host San Antonio top James Harden and the Rockets 110-107 on Tuesday night to take a 3-2 lead in their second-round playoff series. Leonard had 22 points and 15 rebounds in 38 minutes before exiting with an injured right ankle. The Spurs already were without Tony Parker, who will miss the rest of the playoffs after surgery to repair a ruptured left quadriceps tendon.

OMAHA, Nebraska (AP) — Democrats again fell just short in a closely-watched election as Heath Mello lost the Omaha mayoral race on Tuesday after a fierce debate within the national party over his anti-abortion views. Mello, a 37-year-old Catholic from Omaha's working-class south side, had become a flashpoint for the internal Democratic battle over whether a candidate's position on reproductive rights should disqualify him from support by the national party after its crushing losses around the country last year.

The Giants collected all of two hits Tuesday night, and Jeff Samardzija coughed up four first-inning runs. The unimpressive formula was good for a 6-1 loss to the Mets, extending San Francisco’s skid to five games. Just before the first pitch, the Giants placed closer Mark Melancon on the disabled list with a forearm strain, the latest setback in a season that’s targeted as one of the worst in franchise history. “Losing guys is tough, but we’ve got to fill the gap and figure out how to make it work,” Samardzija said.

ARIES. (March 20 - April 18): There's some behind-the-scenes maneuvering going on. But it benefits you. Now's not the time to stick your nose in other people's business.

The build-up felt formidable: the promise of a zeitgeisty, unapologetically raunchy stand-up comic and a screwball icon taking the female buddy comedy to the “enne”-th power. [...] what we’ve gotten in “Snatched” is an uninspired, scattershot disaster romp that mostly serves the talents of one half of the marquee pairing, underuses the other half, and struggles to blend R-rated humor, foreign misadventure, and oil-and-water mother-daughter dynamic into a cohesive diversion. A onetime wild girl forced to become a single mom... Читать дальше...

A Massachusetts judge Tuesday erased a 2013 murder conviction against former NFL tight end Aaron Hernandez, ruling that case law in the state has long established that defendants who die before their appeals are heard should have their convictions vacated. Bristol County Superior Court Judge E. Susan Garsh said she was compelled to follow precedent in ordering that Hernandez’s first-degree-murder conviction be dismissed in the death of semi-pro football player Odin Lloyd. Hernandez killed himself... Читать дальше...
