At a ceremony heavy on military pomp, Pena Nieto made brief reference to the events that unfolded on the night of Sept. 26, 2014, when the students from a rural teachers college vanished after being seized by police. On Sunday, one of those entities, a group of international experts sent by the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, criticized the government's second investigation of the case, complaining of leaks and limited access to information. The experts group earlier had largely demolished... Читать дальше...

Making it more difficult for law enforcement to crack open iPhones could also spur legal restrictions on phone security, something that neither Apple nor other technology companies want to see. Requiring longer passcodes might annoy most Apple users, he says, while boosting phone security "sort of amplifies the whole argument that Apple is making things too difficult and frustrating law enforcement officials." In the current fight, the FBI aims to make Apple help it guess the passcode on the work... Читать дальше...

A few hours later, the 49ers made sure they would keep Dial, 25, on the roster for the foreseeable future by signing him to a three-year contract extension that could keep him with the team through 2020. Throughout his first three seasons in the NFL,” Baalke said in a statement, “Quinton has shown consistent development and has become a key contributor in our defense. In 2016, Dial and Arik Armstead, a 2015 first-round pick, will probably start on the defensive line in the 49ers’ 3-4 defense.

The social network announced Wednesday that users will get to choose from five new icons to indicate how they feel, besides the traditional thumbs up—a heart that represents love and faces that show the emotions surprise, anger, sadness or amusement. In a post Wednesday on his own Facebook page, CEO Mark Zuckerberg said that love has proved to be the most popular reaction so far. “Not every moment is a good moment, and if you are sharing something that is sad, whether it’s something in current events...

Warriors’ Kerr tells Curry to keep on shimmying There was a little bit of backlash after Curry shimmied in front of the Hawks’ bench — specifically toward good friend Kent Bazemore — an instant after making a dagger three-pointer in the Warriors’ victory Monday night. “That’s old school,” Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said after Wednesday morning’s shootaround.

Jasmeet Singh, the Sikh comic and YouTube star better known as JusReign, was ordered to remove his turban during an intensive security check at San Francisco International Airport, but the scrutiny of his headgear wasn't what upset him.

MIAMI - Warriors head coach Steve Kerr fulfilled a championship-contingent promise Tuesday, setting up a tee time at Augusta National Golf Club for captains Stephen Curry and Andre Igudoala. Kerr flew with the team to Miami for Tuesday’s optional practice, leaving Curry and Iguodala in Atlanta — about a 150-mile jaunt to one of country’s most famed courses. Curry and Iguodala played with owner Joe Lacob, executive board member Jerry West and Curry’s father, Dell. “If you birdie the first hole... Читать дальше...

A federal judge has sentenced former California state senator Leland Yee to five years in prison after he acknowledged in a plea deal that he accepted thousands of dollars in bribes and discussed helping an undercover FBI agent buy automatic weapons from the Philippines. Yee was charged in a wide-ranging probe of organized crime in San Francisco's Chinatown that led to charges against more than two dozen people. Former California state senator Leland Yee is expected to be sentenced after acknowledging... Читать дальше...

‘Last Man’ an imaginative astronaut biography Today, the only people who know what it’s like to walk on the moon are a handful of old men. An astronaut on the final moon voyage, Apollo XVII, he is the subject of “Last Man on the Moon,” a documentary that tells his story — a personal story that illuminates an important period of scientific and cultural history. In presenting Cernan’s saga, director Mark Craig isn’t content to piece together talking heads and archival footage. [...] Craig uses... Читать дальше...

The apparent agreement follows weeks of negotiations on how to provide emergency aid to Flint, where drinking water became tainted when the city switched from the Detroit water system and began drawing from the Flint River in 2014 to save money. The bill, the first comprehensive energy legislation in nearly a decade, promotes a wide range of energy, from renewables such as solar and wind power to natural gas and hydropower. An agreement would resolve — for now — an increasingly partisan response to the water crisis in Flint... Читать дальше...

Yes, there was a fellow known as Eddie the Eagle, and yes, he looked something like the fellow that plays him onscreen, and yes he was an Olympic ski jumper — but everything else is just made up. The filmmakers set out to make a movie about Eddie the Eagle, because he is an inspirational figure with a great story. Wasn’t that amazing? And then we find out that no, they just took the name and a few details and changed everything else, including his history as a skier, his training, his personal... Читать дальше...

(AP) — An appeals court says additional clarification of a state law governing abortions in Wisconsin isn't necessary, providing in its decision the clarity Planned Parenthood has sought. The Fourth District Court of Appeals Wednesday reversed a circuit court decision sought by Planned Parenthood.

(AP) — Missouri Supreme Court judges, who restrict recordings of their proceedings, heard arguments Wednesday from a liberal activist group asserting that similar recording limitations by senators violate the state's open-meetings law. A state attorney countered that senators can limit videos and photographs of their committee meetings because Senate rules supersede the Sunshine Law. Missouri law says a public governmental body "shall allow for the recording by audiotape, videotape, or other electronic... Читать дальше...

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Ex-California state senator Leland Yee sentenced to 5 years in prison in racketeering case.

(AP) — It took investigators more than a year of painstaking work, but they say they have finally cracked the case of a former high school cheerleader who was found near death in her rural Mississippi hometown after being doused with a flammable liquid and set on fire. District Attorney John Champion announced Wednesday that Quinton Verdell Tellis, 27, has been charged with capital murder in the death of 19-year-old Jessica Chambers. The prosecutor also said he would not reveal to reporters what... Читать дальше...

The Colombian feature “Embrace of the Serpent” is in varying parts an anticolonial screed, an exploration of the “noble savage” concept and a mystical trip down the river into self-knowledge. Shot in bracing black and white, it nevertheless unfolds like a troubling fever dream, a response that South American rivers seem to bring out in imaginative filmmakers (Herzog, for one, who’s an obvious influence here). Director Ciro Guerra is enraged by the depredations to his homeland caused by the European rubber trade... Читать дальше...

(AP) — A large West Virginia underground coal mine owned by Murray Energy is halting production for nearly two weeks, and the rest of the company's mines are running on part-time schedules due to reduced demand from electric utilities, the company's chairman and CEO said Wednesday. Demand for electric power is down as manufacturing moves overseas, and utilities are increasingly turning to natural gas and other alternative sources to generate electricity, Murray said. Murray said regulatory enforcement... Читать дальше...

In a season of injury and disappointment for Stanford basketball, Rosco Allen has continued his remarkably consistent improvement. The Hungarian-born forward can shoot a feathery three or turn into the Budapest Express on ferocious drives to the basket. By now, his defenders can see his spin move in their sleep. If he leaves the Farm after this season and enters the NBA draft, Pac-12 Networks analyst Kevin O’Neill says, I think he’s a second-round pick. Program insiders believe he’ll return next season...
