WASHINGTON (AP) — Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia says he will oppose the nuclear deal with Iran. Manchin says Tuesday the Iranian regime has shown no signs of changing its behavior and the deal involving world power does "nothing to guarantee that behavior changes." The deal already has the necessary votes in the Senate to sustain President Barack Obama's veto of a resolution of disapproval, with 38 Democratic and independent senators backing it. Manchin is the fourth Democrat to oppose the international accord, joining Sens. Читать дальше...

NEW YORK (AP) — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is slamming New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, saying his "liberal" law-and-order policies have increased crime in the nation's largest city. Christie and de Blasio appeared separately on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on Tuesday. The Democratic mayor argued that the streets are safer in New York under his watch, though he acknowledged there have been more homicides there so far this year than there were at this point in 2014. Christie says that people are getting... Читать дальше...

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration says it is "actively considering" ways to be more responsive to the global migrant crisis, including refugee resettlement. Peter Boogaard, a spokesman for the National Security Council, said the United States is in contact with countries in the Middle East and Europe grappling with the influx of more than 340,000 people from the Middle East, Africa and Asia.

BART service across the bay resumed normally Tuesday as repairs that shut down the Transbay Tube over the weekend were completed in time for the busy morning commute, officials said. As scheduled, the Transbay Tube reopened at 4 a.m. after being closed over the weekend to allow work crews to replace rail ties, tracks and switches in West Oakland. The closure followed a similar one last month. But at 5 a.m. Tuesday, BART officials said there was a “major” delay on... Читать дальше...

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick (7) throws against the Denver Broncos during the first half of an NFL preseason football game, Saturday, Aug. 29, 2015, in Denver. (AP Photo/Joe Mahoney) Here is a review of all 20 of Colin Kaepernick’s drop backs during the preseason. A number of things stood out. 1. He threw 13 times, was sacked three times and ran four times. 2. The most glaring observation – Kaepernick’s inability to step up when he’s pressured. Often his first reaction to pressure was either to step sideways or backwards ... Читать дальше...

Is 1530 Grizzly Peak stunning in a good way, or is the opposite true? At 6,000 square feet of Colonial grandeur, this home makes us a little too overwhelmed to decide. Remodeled from the studs in 2005, the 5 bed, 4 bath manse includes a separate, fully functional guest cottage. It rests on .3 acres

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (AP) — Hillary Rodham Clinton is calling for a "concerted global effort" to assist the hundreds of thousands of refugees from the Middle East, Africa and Asia seeking refuge in Europe. In an interview with The Associated Press, the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination said Monday that "everyone should be asked to do more" to help the migrants, many of whom are fleeing the civil war in Syria and from areas in that country and in Iraq under the control of Islamic State militants.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Congressional proceedings are routinely convoluted, often inscrutable and sometimes bizarre. Even by those standards, the upcoming vote on the Iran nuclear deal stands out as particularly bewildering. It's a situation, by design, where the Democratic minority will rule the Republican majority. The winners of the initial vote will end up the losers. And President Barack Obama stands to be repudiated by at least one chamber of Congress on his top foreign policy priority — yet will emerge triumphant in the end. Читать дальше...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Lawmakers returning to Washington from their summer recess are plunging immediately into bitter, partisan debate over the Iran nuclear accord. The deal struck by Iran, the U.S. and five world powers in July is aimed at curbing Iran's nuclear program in exchange for hundreds of billions of dollars in relief from economic sanctions. Republicans who control the House and Senate strongly oppose the pact, saying it makes dangerous concessions to Iran. They hope to push through a resolution of disapproval this week.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Nobody knows Citizens United quite like Hillary Rodham Clinton. The name of the conservative advocacy group, which five years ago won a landmark Supreme Court case governing campaign finance, has become the preferred shorthand for talking about money in politics. That decision led to the creation of the super PAC — groups that can accept contributions of any size and will spend hundreds of millions to influence the outcome of the 2016 election. "I want to tell you, Citizens United... Читать дальше...

LACONIA, N.H. (AP) — Jeb Bush wanted to run for president as a joyful front-runner, above the fray of the pack. Instead, he heads into the fall campaign as a fighter with a foil: Donald Trump. There's a new urgency in Bush's tone as a candidate. It's moved from frustration and annoyance with Trump's constant needling to a willingness to confront the brash billionaire and call him out for his antics. And though he still relies on the policy-driven arguments that suit his wonkish style, the son and... Читать дальше...

Teen daughters not happy that Mom’s pregnant On a recent second-honeymoon trip to Sweden, I became pregnant. Far more important than how your immature and self-centered daughters feel about your pregnancy is how you and your husband feel about it. Teenagers don’t like to consider their parents as sexual beings, which may be part of the reason for their reaction. [...] my husband takes her food shopping and wherever else she has to go. From the tone of your last remark It’s clear you and your mother-in-law aren’t close. Читать дальше...

Today, U.S. health providers use a system of roughly 14,000 codes to designate a diagnosis, for reimbursement purposes and in medical databases. To get more precise, the updated system has about 68,000 codes, essentially an expanded dictionary to capture more of the details from a patient's chart. Unusual accidents aside, the government says the long-awaited change should help health officials better track quality of care, spot early warning signs of a brewing outbreak or look for illness or injury trends.

Marble Falls, Texas, police said in a statement Monday there have been no arrests. The Northside Independent School District is conducting its own investigation into the incident Friday and has suspended the two players from the school and the team. Video showed the referee watching the play, and his head snapping back when he is leveled from behind. Читать дальше...

Braxton Miller has found a new home at wide receiver, and No. 1 Ohio State has another playmaker. Miller scored two touchdowns — one on a 54-yard catch, the other on an electrifying 53-yard run — and the Buckeyes began their title defense with a 42-24 victory over host Virginia Tech on Monday night. “I really would have preferred that third quarterback be over competing for a quarterback job rather than out there as an athlete,” Virginia Tech head coach Frank Beamer said.

Firefighter Stephanie Preheim had only just arrived at the storage facility she was assigned to protect from a massive wildfire near the tourist town of Chelan, Washington, when the winds shifted, pushing the blaze back her way. Told to stand down, the suddenly sidelined Preheim did what any idled 19-year-old would do — she got out her cellphone, snapped a photo of the smoke-filled scene and posted it on Instagram. "People always ask 'How was it?' and it's impossible to describe what it's like fighting a fire," said Preheim... Читать дальше...

BART officials say riders are experiencing 20-minute delays system-wide, though the cause of the delays remains under investigation.

NEW YORK — Victoria Azarenka and Stan Wawrinka, both two-time Grand Slam champions, make trips to the U.S. Open quarterfinals an annual affair. Azarenka, whose ranking is down to 20th after two injury-plagued seasons, is starting to look like the player who took Serena Williams to three sets in the final at Flushing Meadows in 2012 and ’13. Donald Young had come from behind in his three previous matches, twice rallying from down two sets, but Wawrinka’s power and poise didn’t give Young much of... Читать дальше...
