WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) — The plea deal in Hunter Biden’s criminal case unraveled during a court hearing Wednesday after a federal judge raised concerns about the terms of an agreement that has infuriated Republicans who believe the president’s son is getting preferential treatment.Hunter Biden was charged last month with two misdemeanor crimes of failure to pay more than $100,000 in taxes from over $1.5 million in income in both 2017 and 2018 and had been expected to plead guilty Wednesday after he made an agreement with prosecutors, who were planning to recommend two years of probation. But U.S. District Court Judge Maryellen Noreika, who was appointed by President Donald Trump, raised multiple concerns about the specifics of the deal and her role in the proceedings. The plan also included an agreement on a separate gun charge — Biden has been accused of possessing a firearm in 2018 as a drug user. As long as he adhered to the terms of his agreement, the gun case was to be be wiped ...Another USC basketball player had cardiac arrest at practice a year ago. Here’s what happened

By Sylvia Hui | Associated PressLONDON — Sinéad O’Connor, the gifted Irish singer-songwriter who became a superstar in her mid-20s but was known as much for her private struggles and provocative actions as for her fierce and expressive music, has died at 56.“It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Sinéad. Her family and friends are devastated and have requested privacy at this very difficult time,” the singer’s family said in a statement reported Wednesday by the BBC and RTE.Recognizable by her shaved head and elfin features, O’Connor began her career singing on the streets of Dublin and soon rose to international fame. She was a star from her 1987 debut album “The Lion and the Cobra” and became a sensation in 1990 with her cover of Prince’s ballad “Nothing Compares 2 U,” a seething, shattering performance that topped charts from Europe to Australia and was heightened by a promotional video feat...Carl Sagan’s personal recording of Voyager record for sale

By Ashley Strickland | CNNOne of the most iconic pieces of space exploration history is up for auction.When NASA’s twin Voyager probes lifted off to explore the solar system just weeks apart in 1977, they carried identical golden records designed as the first recorded interstellar message from humankind to potential intelligent life in the cosmos.The records had both audio and visuals that aimed to capture Earth’s diversity of life and culture, including greetings in 59 human languages and 115 images of life.Now, a copy of the master recording for NASA’s Voyager Golden Record — the one kept by the late astronomer Carl Sagan and his wife, producer Ann Druyan — will be for sale at Sotheby’s New York on Thursday.The recordings, contained on two double-sided reels of audiotape, are expected to fetch between $400,000 and $600,000.

The Pac-12’s pursuit of a media rights contract is not, in fact, the conference’s longest unresolved saga. Remember those allegations of recruiting violations levied against Arizona State back in the summer of 2021? The NCAA still hasn’t ruled on the matter.Granted, the media deal will impact the collective, not a single member, and frame the future of the conference. But the outcome remains a first-class mystery.Meanwhile, the endgame for ASU’s football program seemingly gained clarity thanks to the NCAA’s ruling in a different scandal.Tennessee dodged a bowl ban despite an unprecedented series of recruiting violations, indicating the NCAA might go relatively easy on the Sun Devils, as well.We’ll address ASU momentarily, but let’s summarize Tennessee’s situation for those who have not followed closely:Simply put, it was one of the most egregious cases in NCAA history.
