PHOENIX (AP) — In his 24 years as metro Phoenix's sheriff, Joe Arpaio survived scandals and dodged investigations that would easily have sunk the careers of many politicians. He locked up journalists and made criminal cases against political adversaries who tangled with him, investigated judges and misspent $100 million in jail funds. He let investigations into child rape cases languish because officers were pulled away, in part, to help in Arpaio's immigrant efforts. Arpaio was found to have violated... Читать дальше...

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — An Idaho-born landscape painter who traveled the world on the strength of his sales, had one-man shows in New York and commissioned a studio by famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright is mostly forgotten now. Except by a southern Idaho historical society that owns 600 of Archie Teater's oil-on-canvas paintings and is working to revive interest in his art. Paintings by Teater, who died in 1978, once sold for thousands of dollars each. "They've lost their value because not a lot of people have heard of him," said Mike Owsley... Читать дальше...

BOSTON (AP) — It's getting to be that time of year again: The time when college students begin moving back into their apartments and dorms and clog up Boston-area streets in the process. State officials say parking restrictions will be in effect on several roadways during the period leading up to the official "Move-in Day" on Sept. 1. Electronic message boards reading "Permitted Drop Off Only" will be posted. Students who aren't familiar with traveling around the Boston area are also being reminded... Читать дальше...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Vice President Joe Biden has leveled harsh words at President Donald Trump for placing blame on "both sides" for the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia. In a commentary published Sunday in The Atlantic, Biden wrote: "Today we have an American president who has publicly proclaimed a moral equivalency between neo-Nazis and Klansmen and those who would oppose their venom and hate." He said Trump has "emboldened white supremacists with messages of comfort and support." Biden... Читать дальше...

NORTH HUNTINGDON, Pa. (AP) — To Shawn Teamann, posting a sign of the Ten Commandments in the front yard of his North Huntingdon home is an affirmation of his faith and his stance against what he sees as an erosion of religious freedom in America. "It's just standing up for what you believe in. We feel religious freedom is being taken away," said Teamann, a member of the Immaculate Conception Church of Irwin. Immaculate Conception has joined with the two Roman Catholic churches in North Huntingdon — St. Читать дальше...

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is accusing Canada and Mexico of being "very difficult" at the negotiating table over the North American Free Trade Agreement, and threatening anew to terminate the deal. Trump tweeted on Sunday morning that NAFTA is the "worst trade deal ever made." Trump said at a rally last week in Phoenix that he would "end up probably terminating" NAFTA "at some point." The U.S., Mexico and Canada began formal negotiations earlier this month to rework the 23-year-old... Читать дальше...

With no major new releases coming out this weekend — or next weekend — box office numbers have reached an annual low, as Lionsgate’s “The Hitman’s Bodyguard” took the No. 1 spot with $10 million in its second weekend and a 10-day total of just under $40 million. It’s the lowest total for a No. 1 film in any weekend this year. Several factors contributed to the weak returns in the final days of the summer season. Among them was Hurricane Harvey, which forced theater closures and resident evacuations... Читать дальше...

BARRE, Vt. (AP) — The Vermont city defined by the stone pulled from within its surrounding hills is hoping to use that granite to commission a piece of art conceived more than seven decades ago honoring one of the nation's first Boy Scout troops. A local Boy Scout historian is leading the effort in Barre, a city known as "the granite center of the world," to complete the project — a granite statue of a scout carrying a person on his shoulders. The original project ceased following the 1941 death of Italian-born artist Carlo Abate... Читать дальше...

NEW YORK (AP) — Taylor Swift isn't nominated for an award, but she could own the night at the MTV Video Music Awards. The pop star who made headlines all week as she teased her new single will debut a music video at the show Sunday. She dropped the juicy song, "Look What You Made Me Do," on Friday, causing a stir online as fans and others deciphered the lyrics, with many interpreting it a diss toward Kanye West. Others felt Swift's song took shots at Katy Perry, who is hosting the VMAs. It was not clear if Swift is attending the show... Читать дальше...

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — More judges are carrying weapons than most people realize, even though attacks on judges remain rare, surveys and experts say. The question of whether judges should be armed got renewed attention this week after an Ohio judge who was carrying a gun was shot outside his courthouse and fired back. Jefferson County Judge Joseph Bruzzese is recovering from the shooting Monday in Steubenville, along the Ohio River roughly 30 miles (48 kilometers) west of Pittsburgh. "We carry guns,"...

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — When Alexis Kozmon and her husband decided to get a dog for their 6-year-old daughter, they chose to adopt rather than buy from a breeder to teach the child the value of rescuing. Four weeks later, the puppy the family named Sugar was dying painfully from distemper, and despite $3,000 in veterinary treatments, the only humane option was to put her down. Two of Sugar's siblings met the same fate. Kozmon faulted the volunteer-based rescue that had trucked the puppies from Texas... Читать дальше...

DURHAM, N.H. (AP) — More than 400 incoming University of New Hampshire students are attending the school tuition-free this fall. The students, who receive federal Pell grants, are getting assistance through the Granite Guarantee program.

The Granite Guarantee remains in place for four years, provided the student is enrolled full-time, remains Pell eligible and makes satisfactory progress toward their degree.

TIRANA, Albania (AP) — Albania's Prime Minister Edi Rama has named a restructured Cabinet with a goal of increasing the country's economic growth from 3.8 to 5 percent in four years. Rama on Sunday told his Socialist Party leadership on Sunday that his Cabinet would be reduced from 20 to 14 ministerial posts, making it "a smaller but more cooperative one." The left wing Socialists secured a second mandate in a June election, winning 74 seats in the 140-seat parliament, but can't run the government without allies.

LONDON (AP) — Britain's main opposition party announced Sunday that it backs the U.K. staying in the European Union's single market and customs union during a "transition period" after Brexit, arguing that would give much-needed certainty to businesses and consumers. The Labour Party says the ruling Conservative Party's Brexit position — taking Britain out of the EU single market immediately after March 2019, when Britain formally leaves the bloc — would be "unnecessary" and "a highly risky path...

LINCOLN, Neb.

Romero. “Sad to hear the passing of Tobe Hooper,” tweeted James Wan, director of “Saw” and “The Conjuring.” “One of the nicest people. A sweet, gentle soul of a man. Your legacy lives on.
