KEY WEST, Fla. (AP) — Things are weird, as usual, in Key West. A pair of Vikings push a stroller full of stuffed chimps down Duval Street. A man with a ponytail swallows a steel sword. People dressed only in body paint and glitter wander and jiggle from bar to bar. Fantasy Fest — one of Key West's major tourist draws of the year — is in full swing. And that's a relief for Florida Keys business owners trying to weather the economic storm that hit after Hurricane Irma battered the middle stretch of the tourism-dependent island chain.

(Major spoilers ahead for season 2 of the Netflix series “Stranger Things”) There was one nagging item in “Stranger Things” Season 1 that left a chunk of the show’s massive stable of fans feeling dissatisfied: the way the show kind of forgot Barb (Shannon Purser) existed after she was killed. There was one brief scene in the finale where Nancy (Natalia Dyer), Barb’s best friend, cried while she watched her brother celebrate the return of his friend Will from the Upside Down because it finally sunk in that Barb wasn’t coming back.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Associated Press has learned that the Education Department is considering only partially forgiving federal loans for students defrauded by for-profit-colleges.
