ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — The man who has been Albuquerque's interim police chief since a new mayor took office last year has been picked to oversee the department moving forward, officials said Wednesday. Mayor Tim Keller announced Michael Geier's appointment as police chief for New Mexico's largest city in a statement that touted the veteran officer's two-decade career with the Albuquerque Police Department, and recent stint as police chief of Rio Rancho, an Albuquerque suburb. The appointment comes... Читать дальше...

At some point in their treatment for cancer, somewhere between 17 percent and 75 percent of patients with malignancies that don’t affect the central nervous system report the sensation that a mental fog has set in. For months or years after their hair has grown back, the exhaustion has lifted and the medical appointments taper off, the “new normal” for these patients includes problems with concentration, word-finding, short-term memory and multitasking. Their doctors nod their heads knowingly... Читать дальше...

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (AP) — The city of Cedar Rapids says a man who lit a firework lost parts of several fingers after the device exploded while he was holding it. Officials said Wednesday in a news release that the incident happened Tuesday evening, severely damaging one of the 19-year-old man's hands.

The Cedar Rapids Fire Department says it responded last year to 13 fire incidents involving fireworks, including three building fires. Читать дальше...

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — The Latest on the war in Yemen (all times local): 11:40 p.m. Four Emirati soldiers have been killed in the Saudi-led operation to retake Yemen's port city of Hodeida from Shiite Houthi rebels. The deaths are the first casualties to be confirmed by coalition forces since launching the assault against Hodeida early Wednesday. The United Arab Emirates' state-run news agency published the names and ranks of the four soldiers, but did not give further details on how they died. Читать дальше...

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Police have released video from cameras worn by officers trying to find a gunman opening fire from a Las Vegas Strip hotel and help victims wounded during the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. The footage was made public Wednesday. It marks the sixth batch of information released after media organizations, including The Associated Press, sued for video, audio and documents from the Oct. 1 shooting. Police and the FBI have declined to comment on any of the information. Читать дальше...

To experience “The Ring of the Nibelung,” Wagner’s compendious operatic treatment of Nordic myth, is to be deluged with information on many fronts. For four extended nights in the theater, a complex drama plays out in parallel onstage, in Wagner’s sonorous libretto, in his vocal writing and in the orchestra. It was that last element that came to the fore on Tuesday, June 12, when the San Francisco Opera’s revival of the cycle got under way with a sleek and tempestuous account of “Das Rheingold” in the War Memorial Opera House.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A federal judge expressed renewed optimism Wednesday about the prospects for change at the notoriously dangerous New Orleans jail as court-appointed monitors credited the lockup's new director with improving staff morale. Enthusiasm was tempered with acknowledgements that the problems that have long-plagued the jail continue, as evidenced by the latest inmate death. Two weeks ago, inmate Kentrell Hurst died while going through detox for substance abuse at the jail. The hearing... Читать дальше...

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has a point when he lambastes Canada for protecting its dairy farmers with hefty tariffs. But the United States is hardly innocent when it comes to farm protectionism. And the very real difficulties that U.S. dairy farmers face can't all be blamed on America's neighbor to the north. And in fact, despite Canada's tariff, the U.S. runs a surplus in dairy trade with its northern neighbor. A look at Trump's complaints and the complicated reality behind them: TRUMP...

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — A NASA rover on Mars has been knocked out by gigantic dust storm that envelops the planet and blots out the sun. Officials said Wednesday they're hopeful the Opportunity rover will survive the storm, which already covers one-quarter of Mars and is expected to encircle the red planet in another few days. It could be weeks or even months, though, until the sky clears enough for sunlight to reach the Martian surface and recharge Opportunity's batteries through its solar panels. Читать дальше...

Vice President Mike Pence gave an often boastful campaign-style speech Wednesday to the closing session of the Southern Baptist Convention's annual meeting, winning several standing ovations even as some evangelicals criticized his appearance. Pence repeatedly made clear that the SBC — the largest Protestant denomination in the U.S. — is viewed by him and President Donald Trump as a vital part of their conservative base heading into the midterm elections. He called the SBC "one of the greatest forces... Читать дальше...

Filmmaker Matt Reeves’ upcoming “Batman” movie will focus on a younger caped crusader, an insider with knowledge of the project confirmed to TheWrap. According to a report in the Hollywood Reporter, Reeves turned in the first act of his “Batman” screenplay during the Memorial Day weekend after working on a treatment for a year. The filmmaker has previously said he set aside an original script written by Ben Affleck and former DC entertainment president Geoff Johns, and is “starting again” on a completely new take.

Neil Patrick Harris has formally (read: Twitter) apologized to Rachel Bloom for his tweet about her during the Tony Awards. “Sincere apologies to @Racheldoesstuff for my Tony tweet,” Harris tweeted on Wednesday. “I failed to research her before pressing ‘send,’ and what I thought was a funny comment in our living room must have been far from funny to read, backstage, mid show,” he wrote. “As a performer and a parent, I should have know [sic] better.” Also Read: Rachel Bloom Calls Out Neil Patrick Harris Over Tonys Tweet...

SAN MIGUEL LOS LOTES, Guatemala (AP) — El 3 de junio amaneció como un domingo cualquiera en la aldea de San Miguel Los Lotes, donde los vecinos se dedicaban a sus tareas habituales. Al atravesar el caserío, uno imagina varones jugando al fútbol, madres calentando tortillas en un comal, abuelos mirando televisión, jóvenes recorriendo las calles de tierra en bicicleta y niños ayudando a tender la ropa antes de la lluvia estacional de la tarde. Elmer Vázquez recorría las parcelas de su jardín cuando... Читать дальше...

MONTAUK, N.Y. (AP) — Caterers in Washington tweeted a photo of maroon sashimi appetizers served to 700 guests attending the governor's inaugural ball last year. They were told the tuna was from Montauk. But it was an illusion. It was the dead of winter and no yellowfin had been landed in the New York town. An Associated Press investigation traced the supply chain of national distributor Sea To Table to other parts of the world, where fishermen described working under slave-like conditions with little regard for marine life.

“Fox & Friends” co-host Pete Hegseth was way off target with an axe-throwing stunt, according to a lawsuit filed by a man who says he was injured in a 2015 incident. In the suit, filed Tuesday in New York Supreme Court, Jeff Prosperie says he was injured during the June 2015 incident, during which Hegseth “negligently attempted to throw an axe at a ‘target'” during an episode of “Fox & Friends.” According to the suit, the target “was negligently placed in an area which put pedestrians and other individuals...

A beautifully renovated Pacific Heights mansion once owned by high-society philanthropist Vanessa Getty is selling for $30 million.

Less than 72 hours after the Warriors swept Cleveland in the NBA Finals for their third championship in four years, Oakland-based graffiti artist Vogue put the finishing touches on a giant mural outside Golden State’s practice facility. There, in big cursive lettering, were the words, “Dubs Dynasty,” flanked by a head shot of Kevin Durant and three Larry O’Brien trophies. The intent was clear: to remind anyone on the corner of 10th Street and Broadway in downtown Oakland of what the Warriors have built. Читать дальше...

Rare is the sports star who is described in terms of someone you might seek on Craigslist. But that’s Andre Iguodala. The Warriors forward is alternately described as an “organizer” or the team’s “babysitter.” Iguodala doesn’t get the love or pub that the other four members of the “Hamptons 5” receive. He hasn’t been an All-Star since 2012. He doesn’t rack up eye-popping numbers or jump out of the box score. He’s not particularly demonstrative on court. ... Читать дальше...

NBA players can get awfully tired of the postgame media sessions during the playoffs. Familiar, predictable questions come forth, and the majority of stars go through the verbal motions, anxious to just leave the podium and head into the night. Draymond Green rarely looks too thrilled by the process, but he has become the Warriors’ prince of perspective. Viewed by outsiders as a borderline psychotic on the court, with his angry gestures, trash-talking and endless squabbles with the officials... Читать дальше...

This was not an easy season for Stephen Curry. Curry’s unflappable demeanor, a certain Zen-like calmness, sets an important tone for the Warriors. He’s the face of the franchise, after all. If Curry doesn’t seem worried, why should any of his teammates fret? But his pleasant, carefree manner received a stern test this spring. There went the Warriors, slogging to the finish line of a long regular season and springing to life by dispatching San Antonio in their first-round playoff series. Читать дальше...

Steve Kerr likes to say of Klay Thompson, “Klay isn’t low-maintenance, Klay is no-maintenance.” But Kerr has no idea what it takes to pamper prima-donna Thompson behind the scenes. A few years ago, Thompson was in a minor slump and feeling some anxiety. Nobody in the outside world was aware of this because Thompson, even in the most trying of times, doesn’t exactly reek of stress. But his mother knew, and she had a suggestion for her oldest son. At the time... Читать дальше...
