WASHINGTON (AP) — Rudy Giuliani is leaving his Manhattan law firm to focus solely on his new role on President Donald Trump's legal team. The former New York City mayor originally planned simply to take a leave of absence from the law firm of GreenbergTraurig when he joined Trump's outside team last month. But the law firm released a statement Thursday announcing that the parting would be permanent. Giuliani said that he was stepping away "in light of the pressing demands of the Mueller investigation"... Читать дальше...

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Northern Utah prosecutors are trying to determine which of their pending cases may have to be dismissed because a sheriff's evidence room technician was using methamphetamine at work. Weber County Attorney Christopher Allred told The Salt Lake Tribune that he believes that most of the meth that was tampered with belonged to cases that were adjudicated but his office is trying to review how issues with other evidence will affect cases. He says some cases have already been dismissed but did not know how many. Читать дальше...

Do laundry. Clean the fish tank. Re-grout the bathroom. What do these things have in common? They are much better ways to spend your time than sitting through Melissa McCarthy's uninspired and forced "Life of the Party." The film represents the third time the comedian has teamed up with her writer/director husband Ben Falcone — they previously did "The Boss" and "Tammy" — but not only is the new one the weakest, it also may raise questions about the continued viability of McCarthy starring in these solo films.

LONDON (AP) — Britain acknowledged Thursday that its intelligence agents played a role in the kidnapping and torture of an opponent of the late Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi and the man's wife — a rare admission of wrongdoing by British spies. Attorney General Jeremy Wright told lawmakers that Prime Minister Theresa May had apologized "unreservedly" to Abdel Hakim Belhaj and his wife Fatima Boudchar, acknowledging that Britain's actions "contributed to your detention, rendition and suffering." Belhaj... Читать дальше...

The Wisconsin Republican says people should "give the president some leeway" as he prepares for next month's summit with North Korea's Kim Jong Un.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Pentagon said multiple failures are to blame for the Niger ambush that killed four U.S. service members last October, citing insufficient training and preparation as well as the team's deliberate decision to go after a high-level Islamic State group insurgent without proper command approval. A report summary released Thursday includes recommendations to improve mission planning and approval procedures, re-evaluate equipment and weapons requirements, and review training that...

Georgina Chapman, Harvey Weinstein’s soon-to-be ex-wife, was “so humiliated and so broken” when she learned of mounting accusations of sexual misconduct against the movie mogul. It got so bad, Chapman recalled in an interview with Vogue, that she couldn’t go out in public and rapidly dropped weight. “I was so humiliated and so broken . . . that . . . I, I, I . . . didn’t think it was respectful to go out,” said the designer. “I thought, ‘Who am I to be parading around with all of this going on?’ It’s still so very, very raw. Читать дальше...

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — A 95-year-old Florida woman landed in jail after calling police for help during an argument with her defiant granddaughter. Daytona Beach Police Chief Craig Capri tells the Daytona Beach News-Journal that Hattie Reynolds probably wasn't a threat, but her admission of slapping her granddaughter in the face with a slipper qualified as domestic violence. An arrest report says Reynolds told police Saturday that she wanted 46-year-old Janeen Williams out of her house because... Читать дальше...

“Breaking In” is an effective home invasion thriller, with Gabrielle Union trying to protect her kids from four highly dangerous maniacs, at least two of whom (maybe three, and possibly four) are either murderers or willing to add murder to their anti-social repertoire. It’s an easy movie to disrespect, an 88-minute mini nervous breakdown that audiences, once recovered, will start mocking long before they even make it to their car. Yet even as they’re laughing at “Breaking In,”... Читать дальше...

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — The Latest on a North Carolina House study committee making school safety recommendations (all times local): 11:55 a.m. A legislative committee has agreed to more than a dozen recommendations on how to improve K-12 school safety in North Carolina that leave out any new gun restrictions or harsher penalties for bringing weapons to schools or threatening mass violence. The House panel voted unanimously Thursday for the proposals, which will likely be debated by the General Assembly... Читать дальше...

It’s possible that no one will believe this, but about an hour into “Life of the Party,” I figured out that Melissa McCarthy and her husband, Ben Falcone, wrote the screenplay and that Falcone directed it. I did this without prior knowledge or checking, not through some great flash of critical insight, but because of a family resemblance that anyone could recognize: “Life of the Party” is a little too much like “Tammy.” “Tammy,” from 2014, was a sentimental picture that turned McCarthy into a laugh-clown-laugh figure ...

Lee Daniels is staying put at Fox. The executive producer and co-creator of Fox’s “Empire” and “Star” has signed a new multi-year overall deal with 20th Century Fox Television, the studio announced Thursday. “Lee is not just an extraordinary writer and director, he’s a talent magnet who’s full of creative energy,” Fox Television Group Chairmen and CEO Dana Walden and Gary Newman said. “He’s also one of the most entertaining and authentic voices we’ve ever encountered. From ‘Empire’ to ‘Star,’ when you work with Lee on a project... Читать дальше...

Wednesday was not a particularly high-rated night on broadcast television, but even the lightly watched evenings have a winner. Primetime’s top TV show was “Empire,” despite the hip-hop drama hitting a series low, something NBC’s “The Blacklist” (and numerous other series) also did. Fox finished first last night among adults 18-49 and CBS drew the most total viewers, on average. At 10 p.m., the night’s lone season finale, NBC’s “Chicago P.D.,” took its time slot outright. Here’s a fun fact: The... Читать дальше...

Some tech leaders have pushed the administration to focus more on AI and related issues in science and technology. Читать дальше...

TULSA, Okla. (AP) — A white ex-volunteer deputy released early from prison for fatally shooting an unarmed black man was recently seen drinking at an Oklahoma bar in apparent violation of the conditions of his parole, which prohibit him from consuming alcohol or being in places that serve it. Robert Bates, the 76-year-old millionaire insurance executive who moonlighted for years as a reserve Tulsa County sheriff's deputy, was convicted of second-degree manslaughter in the death of Eric Harris in 2015.

Maas noted it's important that Iran continues to abide by the deal, adding that he discussed how Moscow could encourage Tehran to do that. Maas... Читать дальше...

MEDFORD, Ore. (AP) — The head coach of the top-ranked South Medford High School baseball team has been placed on leave because he consumed alcohol before a game. In his ninth season as head coach, Ray Smith has guided the Panthers to the Southwest Conference championship and No. 1 spot in the Class 6A power rankings as of Wednesday. The Mail Tribune reports Smith admitted having drinks before Tuesday's game, a contest from which he was ejected after arguing a call at third base. Smith says he "messed up big time" and let a lot of people down. Читать дальше...

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A small group of enthusiasts is doing its best to make sure that an unusually varied group of irises doesn't go the way of the passenger pigeon. The Society for Louisiana Irises says development, farming, storms and other factors have been eating away at the wetlands where the beautiful flowers grow. The group has created four repositories where they are growing dozens of varieties: three in Louisiana and one in Tennessee. The idea is to create a store of the plants that can survive even if they get wiped out in the wild. Читать дальше...

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on legislation to revive the nuclear waste dump at Nevada's Yucca Mountain (all times local): 11:26 a.m. The House has approved an election-year bill to revive the mothballed nuclear waste dump at Nevada's Yucca Mountain despite opposition from home-state lawmakers. Supporters say the bill approved Thursday would help solve a nuclear-waste storage problem that has festered for more than three decades. More than 80,000 metric tons of spent fuel from commercial nuclear... Читать дальше...
