Police are searching for a criminal who broke the window and front door of an establishment in Miami. Ms. Cheezious, a restaurant located at 7418 Biscayne Boulevard, has fallen victim to another mischievous crime after surveillance video captured a man walking in front of the building moments before the business was damaged. The owner of the restaurant, Brian Mullins, discovered the damage Thursday morning and took to Instagram to find the identity of the man.“[This was] a random person with a bag of rocks repeatedly smashing a window trying to, I assume, get in,” said Mullins. “He was here for a while continuously hitting the window. He hit the window probably 13 or 14 times.”Police are now investigating the incident after they received the video footage. Ms. Cheesious, known for its award-winning grilled cheese, has been targeted in May when a different person broke a window with a rock. In one month, the owner has dealt with approximately $6,000 worth...Meta releases clues on how AI is used on Facebook and Instagram

Washington (CNN) — As demand for greater transparency in artificial intelligence mounts, Meta released tools and information Thursday aimed at helping users understand how AI influences what they see on its apps.The social media giant introduced nearly two dozen explainers focused on various features of its platforms, such as Instagram Stories and Facebook’s news feed. These describe how Meta selects what content to recommend to users.The description and disclosures came in the face of looming legislation around the world that may soon impose concrete disclosure requirements on companies that use AI technology.Meta’s so-called “system cards” cover how the company determines which accounts to present to users as recommended follows on Facebook and Instagram, how the company’s search tools function and how notifications work.For example, the system card devoted to Instagram’s search function describes how the app gathers all relevant search results in response to a user...Hot car deaths can be prevented with this new technology

(CNN) — One hot June day in Louisiana, Tyler Cestia was supposed to drop his son off at a babysitter before continuing on to work. His two-year-old boy, Thomas, asked to ride in the “big boy seat,” the child safety seat his older brother usually rode in, the one right behind the driver’s seat. Once he was buckled in, it was nearly impossible to see him from the driver’s seat, and he didn’t make a sound.“He was pretty quiet whenever we’d ride,” Tyler Cestia said. “I keep it in my mind that he was asleep.”Cestia, a manager at a welding company, had a big financial audit coming up at work that day, and he had a safety presentation to give in the morning. With Thomas silent and not visible, the stop at the babysitter just slipped his mind. The outside temperature peaked at almost 90 degrees that day. Temperatures inside of Cestia’s parked GMC Sierra pickup would have been well over 100 degrees.Thomas died strapped into his safety seat, as his small body was simply overcome by ...Prosecutors drop Varsity Blues charges against 2 parents after appeals court ruling

Federal prosecutors are dropping charges against two parents whose convictions in the sprawling college admissions bribery scandal were overturned by an appeals court, prosecutors said Thursday.The 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in May tossed all the convictions against Gamal Abdelaziz and all but one conviction of another parent, John Wilson. The Boston-based appeals court upheld Wilson’s conviction on a charge of filing a false tax return.The Massachusetts U.S. attorney’s office told the judge in court papers that it’s dismissing those charges tossed by the 1st Circuit, and asked to set a new sentencing date for Wilson on the tax count.Wilson had been sentenced last year to 15 months in prison and Abdelaziz was sentenced to a year behind bars, after jurors found them guilty in 2021 of buying their kids’ ways into school in the first case to go to trial in the so-called “Operation Varsity Blues” scandal. A court later agreed that they could re...Russian general is believed to be detained in aftermath of Wagner mutiny, AP sources say

By TARA COPP and NOMAAN MERCHANT (Associated Press)WASHINGTON (AP) — Gen. Sergei Surovikin, the deputy commander of the Russian group of forces fighting in Ukraine, is believed to have been detained days after mercenaries staged a revolt inside Russia, two people familiar with the matter told The Associated Press on Thursday, citing U.S. and Ukrainian intelligence assessments.The people spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.It’s not clear whether Surovikin faces any charges or where he is being held, reflecting the opaque world of the Kremlin’s politics and uncertainty after the revolt. But his reported detention comes days after Wagner Group mercenaries took over the military headquarters in the Russian city of Rostov-on-Don and were heading toward Moscow in what appears to have been an aborted insurrection.Wagner head Yevgeny Prigozhin has spoken positively of Surovikin while criticizing the country’...NFL suspends 3 players indefinitely for violating the league’s gambling policy, 4th player sidelined for 6 games

Justin Flores didn’t grow up in Everett, but lived close enough to know of the legendary history of the football program.The Woburn native confirmed that he has accepted the head football position at Everett, replacing Rob DiLoreto, who stepped down after three successful seasons.“Everyone knows the history of the Everett football program, they are the winningest program in the state and one of the top 20 in the country,” said Flores, who spent the last six seasons as an assistant at the University of Maine. “There is a lot of talented kids in Everett and I’m looking forward to working with them.”Flores grew up in Woburn and followed a family tradition of playing football for former Tanner coaching legend Rocky Nelson from 2006-2010.“My father (Oscar) and all my uncles played for him,” Flores said. “Rocky always taught us to be tenacious and never give up. That’s something which has always stuck with me.”Flores did a postgraduate year at Tilton before going onto th...Did the pandemic make us worse drivers?

If you get the sense you’ve been seeing more bad accidents on the road lately, you probably have. Crashes claimed an estimated 42,795 lives on U.S. roadways in 2022, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), a fairly dramatic increase over 2019 by more than 6,000 deaths.Though traffic on U.S. roadways plummeted in the first year of the pandemic, roadway deaths did the opposite. Traffic fatalities experienced double-digit growth four quarters in a row beginning in the second half of 2020.And death rates haven’t really improved since then. “Driving is back up almost to normal, but fatalities are continuing to go up,” says David Zuby, executive vice president and chief research officer at the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).This is a paradox that spurred U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg to call it a “national crisis of traffic deaths”.What’s to blame?A deadly cocktail of speed, carelessness and massThere isn’t one contributing...Latest news
