WASHINGTON (AP) — Seeking a valid U.S. passport for that 2023 trip? Buckle up, wishful traveler, for a very different journey before you step anywhere near an airport.A much-feared backup of U.S passport applications has smashed into a wall of government bureaucracy as worldwide travel rebounds toward record pre-pandemic levels — with too few humans to handle the load. The result, say aspiring travelers in the U.S. and around the world, is a maddening pre-travel purgatory defined, at best, by costly uncertainty.With family dreams and big money on the line, passport seekers describe a slow-motion agony of waiting, worrying, holding the line, refreshing the screen, complaining to Congress, paying extra fees and following incorrect directions. Some applicants are buying additional plane tickets to snag in-process passports where they sit — in other cities — in time to make the flights they booked in the first place.So grim is the outlook that U.S. officials aren't e...Neil Young delivers a gorgeous, intimate solo show in Los Angeles

Midway through Neil Young‘s lovely and sometimes shambling solo show on Friday June 30, he paused to chat with the audience again during the first of four sold out shows at The Ford in Los Angeles over the next week.“Alright, I hope you’re not in a hurry,” the 77-year-old singer-songwriter told the 1,200 fans in sold-out amphitheater. “I feel bad for you. You have no idea.”But that’s exactly the point of the Coastal Tour, which kicked off Friday night and also includes dates July 15 in Berkeley and July 23 in Napa. No one had any idea what Young would play – he’d previously announced this tour would feature mostly songs he’d rarely, if ever, played live – and at times it felt like Young himself wasn’t quite sure what he wanted to play next.Neil Young performs at the Ford Theater Friday, June 30, 2023.

PARIS (AP) — Unrest across France sparked by the police shooting of a 17-year-old appeared to slow on its sixth night, but fires and vandalism continued to target public buildings, cars and municipal trash cans overnight into Monday.The riots appeared driven by a teenage backlash. The interior minister said the average age of those arrested was 17 and that children as young as 12 or 13 had been detained for attacking law enforcement and setting fires.In all, according to the Interior Ministry, there were 157 arrests overnight out of a total of 3,354 since last Tuesday, and that two law enforcement stations were attacked, among other damage.“We all have to ask ourselves about the responsibility of families,” Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said.There has been little in the way of organized protests beyond a march last week for Nahel, the teenager killed last Tuesday. But many activists say the nighttime riots are a lashing out against a French state that many young people with immi...Miss Manners: My husband bristles when my eyes stray to what he’s reading

PALM BEACH, Fla. (WSVN) —An unknown object, found by a diver on Tuesday, has become a focal point in Palm Beach, as the community questions its origins and purpose.The unidentified object was spotted by David Marger, who was snorkeling with his children when he stumbled upon the mysterious item, approximately 5 to 10 feet deep. Marger initially mistook it for a missile due to its appearance.“I wasn’t really worried, I was kind of sitting out there like it would be crazy to see an explosion, you know, hopefully nobody gets hurt,” Marger recalled.Speculation about the object’s nature has been rampant among locals, with theories ranging from remnants of World War II military equipment to a discarded torpedo. “Maybe a torpedo. I know the Germans had some submarines over here during the war, but I’m no expert,” one resident speculated. “Probably an old WWII torpedo considering the Navy used to have a lot of ships out here during the war,...Police reunite unidentified person wandering in Miramar with caregivers
