Brian Wilson, an eclectic genius whose sunny Beach Boys songs helped define a revved-up era of American popular music, has died at age 82.

Wilson's family announced his death on social media Wednesday, June 11, and did not cite a cause.

1 person killed in explosion outside Palm Springs fertility clinic; police say act was ‘intentional’

Palm Springs explosion

An explosion at a fertility clinic in the upscale California city of Palm Springs appears to have been intentional, local authorities said. One person was found dead, and the FBI said it was sending investigators, including bomb technicians, to the scene.

Palm Springs Police Chief Andy Mills said in a statement Saturday that the blast “appears to be an intentional act of violence” and that several buildings damaged, some severely.

“There has been one fatality, the person’s identity is not known,” Mills’ statement said.

The act was being investigated as a possible car explosion, said two law enforcement officials briefed on the matter who insisted on anonymity to discuss preliminary information from an ongoing investigation. One of the officials told AP that investigators believe the person who died is likely the person who set off the explosion, but cautioned the investigation is still in its early stages. Authorities have not disclosed a motive.

Boat crash off San Diego

Three people were killed and seven others, including two children, were missing after a small boat capsized in choppy waters off the coast of San Diego, California, on Monday.

The fatal disaster appeared to be an apparent migrant smuggling attempt, officials said. Four other people were rescued after the “panga”-style open fishing vessel washed ashore near Torrey Pines state beach were transported to hospital, according to US Coast Guard officials.

A search was ongoing for the seven people who remained unaccounted for, said a Coast Guard spokesperson, chief petty officer Levi Read. He said two children were believed to be among the missing. Of the four rescued from the panga capsizing, one was listed in critical condition when rescued, according to a statement from the city of Encinitas.

Federal Judge Says Texas A&M Can Host Drag Show

Texas A&M

A federal judge has stopped Texas A&M’s board from banning drag shows on campus.

Lee H. Rosenthal, who was appointed as a federal judge by former President George H. W. Bush, wrote a Memorandum and Opinion on Monday that any student who finds the “Draggieland” performance “offensive has a simple remedy: don’t go.”

“The Board, and some members of the A&M community, are offended by the Draggieland performance,” Rosenthal wrote. “To ban the performance from taking place on campus because it offends some members of the campus community is precisely what the First Amendment prohibits.”

Trump freeze on resettlement funding leaves new refugees scrambling to adjust in U.S.

new immigrants on their own

When 21-year-old Jefferson arrived in the U.S. in December, a case manager from a resettlement agency met him at the airport and took him straight to an apartment. Within a month, the manager also helped him land a job operating a machine that packs lettuce.

Jefferson's new life in America was taking shape. Then suddenly, in late January, his case manager disappeared.

"I was left alone, with no one to provide guidance in this new country," he says, speaking in Spanish because he doesn't yet know much English.

It turned out the case manager had been let go — and their work phone shut down — after the Trump administration froze refugee resettlement.
