Ahmed Musa gave Nigeria its first win at this year’s World Cup, and gave Argentina a gift.

Nigeria will face Argentina in its final group match on Tuesday in St. Petersburg. If Nigeria wins, it will advance to the round of 16. But if Argentina claims all three points, it can still advance depending... Читать дальше...

During coverage of practice Friday for the Toyota/SaveMart 350, the Fox NASCAR team got into a discussion of “technical” corners on the Sonoma Raceway road course. “It’s really about getting into a brake zone without maximizing the brake pressure,” an analyst said. “The grip level is so low here. It’s about setting the car into the corner, getting to the apex and trying to get the car pointed to get off the exit.” Nobody knows Sonoma’s corners, the devilish hairpins and blind (uphill) twists, like this analyst.

PHOENIX — The human backup driver in an autonomous Uber SUV was streaming the television show “The Voice” on her phone and looking downward just before fatally striking a pedestrian in suburban Phoenix, according to a police report. The 300-page report released Thursday night by police in Tempe revealed that Rafaela Vasquez had been streaming the musical talent show via Hulu in the 43 minutes before the March 18 crash that killed Elaine Herzberg as she crossed a darkened road outside the lines of a crosswalk.

1 Venezuela abuses: Government security forces carry out unjustified killings without any apparent consequences as the rule of law in Venezuela quickly vanishes, a United Nations report charged Friday. The Office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights said Venezuelan officers accused in some 500 questionable killings appear to be evading charges. That is a sign that checks and balances have been chiseled away, leaving state authorities unaccountable, said Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein, the high commissioner. Читать дальше...

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — The main appropriations bill in a $32.7 billion spending package for Pennsylvania's approaching fiscal year headed to Gov. Tom Wolf's desk on Friday, more than a week early and without the partisan acrimony that marked the last three years. Wolf was expected to sign it later Friday, barely three days after House officials made public the first details of a product negotiated behind closed doors between the Democratic governor and Republican majority leaders. The Senate voted 47-2 on Friday. Читать дальше...

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — The Latest on Louisiana's special session on taxes (all times local): 5:20 p.m. Louisiana's legislative leaders believe they may be able to wrap up the state's latest special session on Sunday night. House passage of a tax deal on Friday has paved the way for that possibility. The House agreed to renew 0.45 percent of a 1 percent sales tax that expires July 1, to stave off deep budget cuts. Republican Senate President John Alario says he expects the Senate to approve the tax measure without changes ... Читать дальше...

WAUKESHA, Wis. (AP) — A Wisconsin man who spent more than two weeks on the run after a domestic disturbance now faces additional charges. Forty-three-year-old Jonathan Pogreba appeared in court Friday, the day after surrendering to authorities in Waukesha County. WITI-TV reports prosecutors argued Pogreba is a danger to the public and a flight risk. Bail was set at $150,000 cash, and Pogreba remained in jail. According to the complaint, Pogreba assaulted and pulled a gun on his wife at their Town of Eagle home on June 5... Читать дальше...

BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — Prosecutors say no criminal charges will be brought in the killings of three people who entered a house on Montana's Crow Indian Reservation and were engaged in a shooting that left two occupants injured. Montana's U.S. Attorney's Office said Friday that it was impossible to prove who shot whom and in what order in the August 4 shooting in Lodge Grass. Prosecutors also said they would not be able to overcome claims that the killings resulted from self-defense or defense of another. Читать дальше...

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — The Louisiana House smashed through its gridlock Friday, bridging disagreements about fractions of a penny and backing a sales tax proposal that could keep colleges and state services from seeing steep budget cuts in July. With a 74-24 vote , lawmakers sent the Senate a bill that would renew nearly half of a 1 percent sales tax that expires July 1. The measure, which renews 0.45 percent of the tax that's set to expire, scraped through the House with just four more than the 70 votes it needed to pass. Читать дальше...

Beyond being a slick fielder, superb hitter and fleet of foot, Osiris Johnson is a evidently a pretty good mimic. The 6-foot-1, 195-pound Encinal-Alameda senior shortstop did a remarkable job this season of imitating his mentor, second cousin and former National League MVP Jimmy Rollins. In 26 games, Johnson hit .535 with 46 hits, 15 doubles, two triples and six home runs. He also stole 16 bases in 17 attempts, scored 30 runs and drove in 24 for the Jets (19-8-1). Читать дальше...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Just when House Republicans needed Donald Trump's backing the most — on their big immigration overhaul — he dashed off a presidential tweet on Friday saying they should quit wasting their time on it. It's hardly the first time the president has abandoned his allies in a moment of need. Over and over, Trump has proven himself a saboteur, willing to walk away from promises and blow up a deal, undermining the GOP agenda in Congress. "You just fear that tweet in the morning," said Rep.

(Spoiler alert: Do not read on if you have not seen “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.”) “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom” is chock-full of action and suspense, much of it supplied by CG dinosaurs wreaking havoc. But for star Bryce Dallas Howard and director J.A. Bayona, the most challenging scene to shoot didn’t involve any of the prehistoric creatures at all — but an underwater episode that was as difficult to prep as it was dangerous to shoot. It all happens — spoiler alert — when Howard’s dinosaur... Читать дальше...

A prominent judge and social justice activist has called for the suspension of Bay Area youth leadership retreats that employ reckless methods in the name of empathy-building, a reaction to The Chronicle’s recent exposé of programs that have been attended by thousands of local high school students for decades. The call comes amid conversations among retreat leaders nationwide about how suspect, even unethical practices became so embedded in the so-called Camp Anytown movement, an... Читать дальше...

Opening there Friday, June 22, is Curio (775 Valencia St.), a quirky, art-inspired bar and restaurant where seafood towers, specialty cocktails and live music collide with impunity.
