ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — The University of New Mexico has announced it is suspending head football coach Bob Davie for 30 days in connection with alleged physical abuse of football players. The school said Thursday that Davie was suspended after a Chicago law firm could not conclude that football coaches or staff obstructed criminal investigations or misconduct cases involving players.

STARKVILLE, Miss. (AP) — On May 5, 2017, Kaelin Kersh walked across the stage in Humphrey Coliseum on Mississippi State University's campus to receive her bachelor's degree. Little did her family know, that would be Kaelin's final accomplishment.

Tesla customers who waited in line in March 2016 to place deposits for the first Model 3s will have to be patient even longer after delivery dates for many reservation holders have slipped again. Several would-be drivers said they received emails from the electric-car maker on Wednesday night — after the Palo Alto company reported its fourth-quarter earnings — saying their expected delivery dates had been pushed back. Some Day 1 reservation holders are now seeing “late 2018” for... Читать дальше...

Fatou Bensouda, a prosecutor for the international court, said in a statement that the inquiry would gauge whether there was enough evidence to build a case.

Whether or not “The Shape of Water” wins the Best Picture trophy at the Oscars next month, it’s already inspired a different kind of statuette. This one’s a dildo. XenoCat Artifacts is selling a sex toy inspired by Amphibian Man — a.k.a. The Asset — in their Etsy shop. The 100 percent silicon dildo is essentially a mockup of what artist and co-owner Ere and her partner Ink believe the big-screen sea creature’s penis — alluded to but not seen in the film — would look like. Naturally, we had to talk to them all about it. Читать дальше...

SAN JOSE, Costa Rica — Religious and social conservatives in Costa Rica have found a lot to object to from President Luis Guillermo Solis’ government. A decision to allow in-vitro fertilization. A plan to recognize civil unions for same-sex couples. The publication of sex education guides by the Education Ministry, and the announcement of courses that would include discussion of sexual diversity. In 2014, less than a week after Solis took office, the rainbow flag... Читать дальше...

If you’ve ever scratched your head over the nominees for Best Short Subject — not recognizing a single, solitary film — you’re not alone. We’ve come a long way from the era in which short live-action, animated and documentary movies were a staple at the local movie theater, and nowadays you typically have to seek them out. Fortunately, “The 2018 Oscar-Nominated Short Films” are playing at select theaters across the country, so watching them all is a snap. The only problem, of course, is that these... Читать дальше...

At its best, Magic Theatre’s “Reel to Reel” has the wisdom of the gods. Witnessing John Kolvenbach’s play can be like sitting with someone who’s listened to the universe since its first rustle of life — someone who can shake you out of your small-minded selective hearing and make you take in your life as it is: a too-brief slice in the continuum, every banality, every humiliation as precious as a first kiss, or a last one. And the relevant sense is emphatically hearing, not sight... Читать дальше...

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — The New Hampshire House has passed legislation aimed at protection inmates from sexual assault. The bill was filed in response to a case in which a deputy sheriff had sex with a female inmate he was transporting to prison. He was convicted of rape under a law that prohibits sex between prisoners and those with director authority over them, but the state Supreme Court overturned his conviction because he was employed by the county sheriff, not the prison or jail. The bill that... Читать дальше...

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Federal prosecutors are asking a judge to reconsider the dismissal of the criminal case against a Nevada rancher who led a 2014 armed standoff with government agents. Dayle Elieson, the interim U.S. Attorney in Nevada, wrote in a court filing Wednesday that states' rights activist Cliven Bundy and his sons Ryan and Ammon Bundy have a right to their beliefs but don't have a right to obstruct federal law enforcement officers. Chief U.S. District Judge Gloria Navarro last month dismissed the criminal case against Bundy... Читать дальше...

The Dow is 10 percent below the record high it set just two weeks ago, putting it in what is known on Wall Street as a "correction."

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — New Hampshire residents who share someone's private sexual images without permission won't have to register as sex offenders any time soon. The House voted Thursday to further study a bill sponsored by Republican Rep. Yvonne Dean-Bailey of Northwood. Current law requires registration for a variety of crimes, including sexual assault. The bill would have expanded the list to those convicted of distributing private sexual images without someone's consent. The House Criminal Justice... Читать дальше...

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Florida legislators have passed dueling budgets that have wide differences in how much money should be spent in the coming year. The Florida House and Senate voted on Thursday for rival versions of a new $87 billion state budget. They have until early March to work out the differences in order to end the annual session on time. While the two chambers are spending roughly the same, they are not spending the same amount in key areas, including on environmental programs, public schools and on state universities.

The Macomb County sheriff's office says Thursday that detectives spoke with school district employees who said they witnessed disciplining of the students. The... Читать дальше...

Selling Girl Scout cookies is meant to accomplish more than just distributing Samoas and Thin Mints to the world. Ideally, the girls would learn about setting goals, teamwork, money management and communicating with adults, among other things. If the girls can develop some business acumen, all the better. And one young scout in San Diego has received nationwide plaudits for her shrewd entrepreneurial sense, setting up shop last week outside a marijuana dispensary. The girl... Читать дальше...
