The “Star Trek” franchise is boldly going where it hasn’t gone before: the Library of Congress’ National Film Registry. “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan,” a 1982 release, was among the 25 films added to this year’s registry, the Library of Congress announced Tuesday. It is now among 900 titles in the registry, a list of films selected by the National Film Preservation Board. “Beverly Hills Cop,” a 1984 comedy and action film, marked star Eddie Murphy’s first feature film to make the list. “The wealth of American film history is sometimes rather overwhelming, and people often wonder: how do you recommend this film or that film?” Jacqueline Stewart, chair of the National Film Preservation Board, said in a statement.

The communication breakdown happens as the social platforms launched in the 2000s have taken on larger lives than anyone anticipated. The candid nature of group chats gives them value and tethers people with looser connections together, but that can also make them unwieldy. Group chats can languish for years; there's no playbook for leaving or kicking out someone who's no longer close to the core group. If a couple breaks up, who gets the group chat? But his group chat might still have the best vibes of all.

☆ Trump hush-money conviction survives his 'immunity' challenge — for now

A NY judge Monday denied Trump's demand that his hush-money case be dismissed on immunity grounds. Judge Juan Merchan said the SCOTUS immunity decision found a president is not above the law. Donald Trump's 11th-hour bid to toss his hush-money case prior to Inauguration Day — on presidential immunity grounds — was rejected Monday by a Manhattan judge. Presidential immunity does not apply to the hush-money case because the case hinged on "decidedly personal acts," Merchan found, agreeing with arguments by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. They also argued that presidential immunity, as bestowed by SCOTUS in June, extends to presidents-elect.

Vladimir Putin has been quiet about Syria since the end of Bashir Assad's rule. During an annual televised meeting between President Vladimir Putin and Russia's top military officials on Monday, Putin was keen to keep the focus firmly on incremental successes in Ukraine. AdvertisementBut he was conspicuously silent about recent events in Syria — where longtime Kremlin ally Bashar Assad was deposed by rebels earlier this month. AdvertisementYet, with Russia's military stretched by its costly war in Ukraine, Putin appeared unwilling or unable to divert forces to save Assad. The collapse of Assad's government could have wider implications for Russia's global military footprint, which might help explain Putin's silence on the matter.

Whether you choose to drink or not is an individual decision. “Alcohol does a lot of things: the reaction time impact, the motor coordination impact, the impact on judgment — these are all legitimate pharmacological effects of alcohol,” he said. Members of one group were told they were getting drinks with alcohol, and they did; participants in a second group were told they were getting alcohol-free drinks, and they did. For those who thought they were getting alcohol but didn’t, the group dynamic appeared quite active, according to Kilmer. If you do make the choice to drink, he suggested lessening alcohol’s impact by alternating each alcoholic drink with a glass of water.

Former talk show host Carlos Watson was sentenced Monday to nearly 10 years in prison in a federal financial conspiracy case that cast his once-buzzy Ozy Media as an extreme of fake-it-'til-you-make-it startup culture. So extreme that another Ozy executive impersonated a YouTube executive to hype Ozy to investment bankers — while Watson coached him, prosecutors said. Watson even listened in and texted talking points while his co-founder posed as a YouTube executive to praise Ozy on a phone call with potential investors, prosecutors said. Ozy Media was his second startup, coming a decade after he sold a test-prep company that he had founded while in his 20s. Meanwhile, Ozy gave prospective investors much bigger revenue numbers than those it reported to accountants, according to testimony and documents.

Secure messaging apps use end-to-end encryption to protect communications from hackers, surveillance and unauthorized access, so even messaging app providers can't read your messages. There are also paid messaging apps that are end-to-end encrypted, such as Threema. For example, RCS messages using Google Messages are automatically upgraded to end-to-end encryption, but Apple's implementation of RCS on iPhones is not end-to-end encrypted, Horwitz said.
