(AP) — Investigators say a man accused of shooting his wife to death in front of the couple's children on the Wind River Indian Reservation was upset over an argument about painkillers. FBI special agent Christine Coble says three of the couple's eight children saw Johnson shoot Sapohoors while pinning her down on the floor in a bedroom Saturday.

Mostly, Tova sticks to the sort with spiral bindings. On a recent Saturday afternoon, at a park in West Oakland, a man introduced Oakland’s youth poet laureate to an audience. When you think that their reign is over,/ they’re already down your throats./ The modern European empire, has forced us back onto slave ships/ but instead of sea vessels/ they’re collecting in devil vehicles of metal. [...] she walked off the stage, letting the poetry float, undisturbed. Imagine then, Tova, now a junior at Bentley School... Читать дальше...

LOS ANGELES — “Fruitvale Station” writer-director Ryan Coogler is sending a love letter to his father in the form of the latest “Rocky” film. [...] as Coogler told a story about a father-son relationship between Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone, of course) and Adonis Creed (Fruitvale star Michael B. Jordan), the young filmmaker and his cast found themselves being coached off-screen by Rocky himself. Adonis never met his father, but he wants to be a professional fighter, so he goes to Philadelphia to seek Rocky’s help. Читать дальше...

Alums, discipline have Balboa High in S.F. football title game The scoreboard last week should have been evidence enough for Poutoa Fuega, a longtime Balboa ROTC instructor turned first-year varsity football coach. The San Francisco Section semifinal victory vaulted the Buccaneers to Thursday’s title tilt — the annual Turkey Day Game — and came four weeks after Lincoln, a longtime section power, had defeated Balboa 52-40. Big, tough Balboa kids tearing up wasn’t what Fuega, 50, pictured when he took the job shortly after the 2014 season... Читать дальше...

Season of Sharing helps Bay Area residents in need [...] all Xavier knows about the medical routine is that he has tubes attached to his chest and that he takes a lot of trips to the hospital. [...] he knows he can’t go outside much, visit the zoo, travel far or have play dates. At home with Mom and Dad — which is where he spends virtually every hour outside of a hospital bed — Xavier cavorts through his hours like any other little boy, kicking balls, whizzing toy cars, punching iPad games.

In captivity, the limited size of the colonies — and the need to perpetuate a genetically diverse species — make human intervention necessary. The Association of Zoos and Aquariums runs a “species survival” program among the nearly 50 facilities with African penguin colonies, including the science center here. Scientists gather the genetic information on more than 800 birds held around the country and make breeding recommendations based on which are least related to one another. Because penguin...

Right now, he is enjoying the spotlight as the title character in longtime producer Josh Mond’s semiautobiographical directing debut, “James White,” for which Abbott has received a best actor Gotham Award nomination. “On a personal level, it’s to try my best to expand myself, to try and learn something from doing this job,” he says on a trip with Mond to San Rafael. Josh and I were kind of able to go down the road, whether it was improvising a little bit or to explore those weird parts of one’s psyche that I find it interesting. Читать дальше...

Sam Whiting has been to enough weddings to know there is always an awkward disconnect between the toasts and the first dance and the party dancing and the after-party. The master of ceremonies and emcee of the toasts turned out to be the bandleader and lead singer. [...] the bandleader came back out as DJ and worked his iPhone for another hour of dancing. Whiting caught the name of the bandleader, Jefferson Bergey, and tracked him down to a monthly showcase of his band, the Lucky Devils, which hosts once a month at a bar in the Richmond.

Laura McQuade, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri, said the organization would sue the state Department of Health and Senior Services if it revokes the clinic's abortion license.

The mandate for the upcoming holidays is a deeper appreciation for people who really matter. Aries (March 20-April 18) Time now for the fa la la stuff. Taurus (April 19-May 19) Venus high beams your one-on-one relationships just as the sun/Mercury merger accents shared resources. Like it or not, money makes the world go round.

Giorgio Moroder, out of retirement and feeling the love Thanks to a little nudge from Daft Punk (see 2013’s “Random Access Memories”), mustachioed disco genius and dependable pop hit maker Giorgio Moroder, 75, came out of musical retirement this year with “Déjà Vu.” [...] that you’ve had some time to live with it, are you happy with the way “Déjà Vu” turned out? Slowly, I’m thinking about the next album and starting the whole process again. [...] you were so prolific in the time leading up to your break. Читать дальше...

Julia Wolfe’s Pulitzer Prize-winning oratorio “Anthracite Fields” is a thrillingly versatile tribute — by turns elegiac and celebratory, rambunctious and reflective — to the world of coal mining and miners in the composer’s home state of Pennsylvania. The work’s five movements are scored for chorus (the superb Choir of Trinity Wall Street led by Julian Wachner) and instrumental sextet (the Bang on a Can All-Stars), and Wolfe uses those musical resources, along with a wealth of evocative found texts...

Album review: Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings, ‘It’s a Holiday Soul Party’ If the idea of hearing another dreary Christmas album by the latest “American Idol” flunky makes you want to hibernate through March, take a listen to Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings. “It’s a Holiday Soul Party” is a freewheeling, swinging set by Brooklyn’s finest retro-soul band that defiantly opens with “8 Days (Of Hanukkah)” — easily the funkiest tune ever written about the Festival of Lights — and turns standards like...

DownBeat, the venerable jazz magazine, had never written much about country music during its first 46 years until it put Merle Haggard on the cover of the May 1980 issue. The four-page article inside, titled “Country Jazz Messiah,” traced the influences of jazz on the country singer-songwriter’s music and that of his sidemen. The letters-to-the-editor page of the June issue was filled with letters of outrage from readers criticizing the periodical for having featured a country musician. “I draw... Читать дальше...

With its highbrow title, a riff on the Alfred Lord Tennyson poem “Lady Clara Vere de Vere,” the 1949 British movie “Kind Hearts and Coronets” offers abundant lowbrow comedy derived from murderous — and farcical — mayhem. Film critic Bosley Crowther, as so many did, raved about Guinness when the movie opened in the U.S. in 1950 (“with this one film he should garner three or four awards for fine support”) and said of the movie that “such a story of unmitigated contempt for the fundamental laws of...

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — After his father died, Ahmad Saeed took over the office on the ground floor of the family’s storied bookstore here, Saeed Book Bank. “They all apologized and said they had tried to see my father while he was alive, but his office was always too crowded and they were embarrassed,” Saeed said. The man himself became an oracle to those looking for advice on books, taking time to establish a personal connection and to urge favorites on visitors. Saeed Book Bank has 42,000 square...

The picture quality is the only reason this 1979 “Masterpiece Theatre” piece doesn’t get the highest rating. The images on this DVD have the resolution of a fading VHS tape from 30 years ago, and if this truly is the best restoration that can be made of this 166-minute production, that must be counted a minor but distinct tragedy. For the generation that first saw these programs when they were new — and for anyone willing to ignore the technical imperfections of this DVD — Kate Nelligan is the Thérèse Raquin to end all Thérèse Raquins.

Whenever I’m invited to talk about the strengths and weaknesses of various artists in general terms, I feel uncomfortable. Life is huge and art is small, and even a creative genius is only going to get a small slice of the pie. What matters is getting that slice of the pie right and making it delicious. In Tarantino’s case, his cinematic literacy and imagination have enabled him to accomplish his aims just about every time out. By vulgar impulses I emphatically don’t mean vulgar language, because...
