SAN DIEGO — The Mexican migrant, slouching in his baggy jail garb, was caught crossing the border and the federal judge in San Diego wanted an explanation. “I’ll stay in Mexico and won’t come back again,” said Carlos Arizmendi-Dominguez, 34, a former dairy farmer who was trying to return to his family in Idaho. “I ask forgiveness.” “I’m not here to forgive,” Magistrate Judge William Gallo replied. Across the Southwest border, the crackdown on illegal... Читать дальше...

The best coffee chain in the U.S., as selected by more than 77,000 participants for the Harris Poll's 30th annual EquiTrend survey, is — sorry — Krispy Kreme.

Margot Kidder was one of the first leading ladies of the superhero genre. As Lois Lane in the “Superman” movies opposite Christopher Reeve, Kidder proved she was doing more than just playing a sidekick or a damsel in distress. She was ballsier, saltier and wittier than even some of her male co-stars, and she deserves to be in the conversation with female franchise stars like Carrie Fisher or Karen Allen. But she had a lucrative career outside of playing Lois Lane, including starring opposite Richard Pryor... Читать дальше...

President Trump and his top aides on Monday hailed the opening of the new U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem as a “great day,” a position that roiled the Arab world and fueled deadly protests along the Israel-Palestinian border. The move ends — at least for now — America’s chances of becoming a neutral peace broker in the Middle East. And while the approach was swiftly condemned by Muslim world leaders, Trump’s new policy appeases a powerful pro-Israeli lobby within the Republican party.... Читать дальше...

The staging ground for one of the biggest regulatory fights facing the technology industry is far removed from Washington or Brussels, tucked into an alley next to a wine and cheese shop about 30 miles from Silicon Valley. A barely furnished real estate office in an upscale Oakland neighborhood is the headquarters for backers of a proposed California ballot measure that would provide consumers with increased privacy rights, including the ability to demand that companies do not sell their personal data.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Two people were stabbed and wounded outside a remote Alaska village school by a man armed with a knife and shouting threats who tried to break in to the building, officials said Monday.

NEW YORK (AP) — A once-trusted nanny who was convicted of brutally murdering two small children in her care while their parents were out was sentenced on Monday to life in prison without parole Yoselyn Ortega wept as she spoke briefly — a rare show of emotion in a lengthy trial at which she was convicted of the gruesome October 2012 stabbing deaths of 6-year-old Lucia Krim, known as Lulu, and 2-year-old Leo Krim. "I'm very sorry for everything that happened, but I hope that no one goes through what... Читать дальше...

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — In a jarring contrast, Israeli forces shot and killed at least 55 Palestinians and wounded more than 1,200 during mass protests Monday along the Gaza border, while just a few miles away Israel and the U.S. held a festive inauguration ceremony for the new American Embassy in contested Jerusalem. It was by far the deadliest day of cross-border violence since a devastating 2014 war between Israel and Gaza's Hamas rulers, and further dimmed the already bleak prospects for President Donald Trump's hoped-for peace plan.

SPRINGFIELD, Ore. (AP) — A glut of legal marijuana is driving Oregon pot prices to rock-bottom levels, prompting some nervous growers to start pivoting to another type of cannabis to make ends meet — one that doesn't come with a high. Applications for state licenses to grow hemp — marijuana's non-intoxicating cousin — have increased more than twentyfold since 2015, making Oregon No. 2 behind Colorado among the 19 states with active hemp cultivation. The rapidly evolving market comes amid skyrocketing... Читать дальше...

On the small, scenic Channel Island of Jersey, there’s a serial killer on the loose — not a good time for a young woman to be dating a strange man who looks fresh out of prison. That’s what happens in “Beast,” and even if it has B-movie trappings and the tension wanes in the second half, it’s a stylish psychodrama. After a troubled childhood, Moll is now in her 20s, confined at home with her family, who are so unpleasant that even Charles Manson would seem like good company in comparison. Читать дальше...

“The Guardians” (“Les Gardiennes” in French) is either a masterpiece or a near-masterpiece — time will tell. But it takes its place among the best films of Xavier Beauvois, an eclectic group of exceptional films that includes the crime drama, “Le Petit Lieutenant” (2005) and “Of Gods and Men,” about Trappists monks in Algeria. Like “Of Gods and Men,” “The Guardians” is about people in a seemingly peaceful community who are, nonetheless, under siege. It takes place during World War I... Читать дальше...
