I was thinking about my childhood the other day and some unique jobs I had and privileges that came my way. Everything I did pointed to a career in electronics and engineering. Of course, as a kid, I made money mowing other peoples yards. We had an old Reo green and cream colored push lawn mower. I had perhaps half-dozen yards I would regularly mow. Probably at $1 each. About the same time, I had a paper route. My favorite job as a kid, and I probably started at age 12, was to change the tower...

HOUSTON (AP) — In a quest to help Harvey victims, Kelli Shofstall and her son set out on a 165-mile drive from Austin to Houston that led them through neighborhood after neighborhood where the streets were dry and no one seemed to need assistance.

"My son and I joked that we sucked at relief efforts," Shofstall said. Christian Carr...
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump on Tuesday began dismantling Barack Obama's program protecting hundreds of thousands of young immigrants who were brought into the country illegally as children, declaring he loves the "dreamers" who could face deportation but insisting it's up to Congress, not him, to address their plight. Trump didn't specify what he wanted done, essentially sending a six-month time bomb to his fellow Republicans in Congress who have no consensus on how to defuse it. The president tried to have it both ways with his c...

The newspaper said the Red Sox told MLB investigators that Boston manager John Farrell, general Dave Dombrowski and other team executives were not aware of the scheme. Commissioner Rob Manfred, wh...
The White House took a firm stance on Tuesday in outlining why an immigration program created by President Barack Obama needs to be eliminated.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Lawmakers returned to Washington Tuesday facing a daunting to-do list and three months left in the year to show that Republicans can actually get things done. President Donald Trump immediately added a huge complication by rescinding immigration protections for younger immigrants and ordering Congress to come up with a fix. The immigration issue has defeated Congress' best efforts in the past and proven enormously divisive for the GOP. But for now there's not even room for it on the front burner as lawmakers, just back from a...
