CLEVELAND, Ga. (AP) — A Baptist college in northeast Georgia won’t reinstate its president after an investigation into whether he ignored claims that a former administrator was abusing students.Trustees at Truett McConnell University in Cleveland announced Friday that Emir Caner won’t return.

FARMINGDALE, N.Y. (AP) — Rory McIlroy waited two years to play again with Tommy Fleetwood at a Ryder Cup. It took mere minutes for them to look like the perfect teammates again.They weren’t the only ones. Jon Rahm hit a splendid shot out of the rough to bail out Tyrrell Hatton on the sixth hole. Hatton did the same for Rahm moments later, when a stick inches away from their ball threatened to derail the duo on the seventh.While captain Luke Donald did not run it back with the exact lineup that won in Rome in 2023, he kept Europe’s…
In my work as a veterinary pharmacologist, I never know exactly what I’m going to get when I open my email. It could be a request from a veterinarian asking my team to determine the concentration of a drug to treat the shell of a turtle infected with fungal disease. Or it could be an inquiry from a researcher wondering whether we can help them figure out the dose of antacid they should give goats and sheep with ulcers.In one email, a veterinarian wanted to know whether we could determine the concentration of an extended-release antibiotic in tigers to determine…
Earlier this year, Apple introduced its Foundation Models framework during WWDC 2025, which allows developers to use the company’s local AI models to power features in their applications. The company touted that with this framework, developers gain access to AI models without worrying about any inference cost. Plus, these local models have capabilities such as guided generation and tool calling built in. As iOS 26 is rolling out to all users, developers have been updating their apps to include features powered by Apple’s local AI models. Apple’s models are small compared with leading models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or Meta.…
FARMINGDALE, N.Y. (AP) — Everyone wanted to see the first shot. The last one told the story better.Justin Thomas needed to make a 5-foot putt on the 15th green to keep the biggest match of Friday morning going at the Ryder Cup. But that putt — like so many others — skimmed the edge.Thomas slumped his shoulders and headed over to shake hands with Jon Rahm and Tyrell Hatton after the European team’s 4-and-3 win over the U.S. power pairing of Thomas and Bryson DeChambeau.A match that was supposed to build momentum did just that — but for Europe, not…
Monday’s claim by President Trump that the use of Tylenol during pregnancy is linked to a “very increased risk of autism” left medical and autism communities reeling. While Trump announced that the Food and Drug Administration is “strongly recommending that women limit Tylenol use during pregnancy unless medically necessary,” medical organizations like the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the American Academy of Pediatrics are pushing back, saying robust data suggests that Tylenol use during pregnancy is safe.Many parents in the autism community are taking to social media to express their frustration that the administration has tried to pin…
