Staff Writer Sept. 30, 2026 2:57 PM PT Some monetary relief may be on the horizon for Chris Brown, found liable earlier this year for a vicious dog attack in 2020 that left a housekeeper working at his Tarzana home hospitalized with injuries to her face, arm and leg. A Los Angeles Superior Court judge on Tuesday ruled in favor of the R&B star, granting the musician and his team’s motion for a new trial on the nearly $12.9 million in damages owed to plaintiff Maria Avila, the housekeeper a jury awarded the hefty sum in July. According to the ruling, reviewed by The Times, the court found “the jury’s award to Maria Avila is excessive,” citing “insufficient evidence” of the “extensive permanent nerve damage” and of “the value to future pain and suffering” resulting from the 2020 incident. Judge Huey P. Cotton ruled that Avila can either agree to a reduced award of $9.5 million in damages or undergo a new trial for the damages. She has until Tuesday to decide. Neither legal representatives for Brown nor Avila, also identified in court documents as Maria Soledad Avila Marmolejo, immediately responded on Wednesday to The Times’ request for comment.

Ridgedale, MO SMX World Championship FinalMonster Energy SuperMotocross World Championship Okay that’s a wrap on the 2026 SMX season. Goes by pretty quick, right? We’re into year four of this new three-race “playoffs” (where no one gets eliminated) and in my opinion there’s probably been more misses than hits with this thing but at least 2026 ended on somewhat of a good note with the first-ever event held at the Thunder Ridge arena somewhere near the Ozark Mountains. After the pretty much disastrous Columbus and L. A. rounds where no one was really happy with the venues or the racing, the new venue was cool, the track was back to being a true SMX track and the vibes were high. Was the racing great? No, it wasn’t, as the track didn’t offer enough passing opportunities, it was really fast while you were turning and everything led you to the main line. The 180’s before and after the triple offered the best spots to try and get by. Other than that, it was going to be very tough to make a move. I thought the track looked cool on Friday and fun to ride. Then it turned out not fun to race, due to the passing.

Norah O'Donnell is a multiple Emmy-Award winning "60 Minutes" correspondent and co-host of "CBS Mornings. " Previously, O'Donnell served as the managing editor and anchor of the "CBS Evening News" for more than five years, in addition to anchoring CBS News election specials. O'Donnell is also the host of "Healthful with Norah O'Donnell," a CBS News podcast focused on women's health. Women live longer than men, but they also spend more time being sick. Why is that? One reason is that women's health has long been under-researched and underfunded. According to research from Melinda French Gates' Pivotal, for every dollar spent globally on medical research and innovation, only 5 cents are spent on women's health. The Society for Women's Health Research is trying to change that in the United States with a first-of-its-kind, $20 billion,10-year federal road map to improve the health of more than half of the population. SWHR President and CEO Katie Schubert joined me on Healthful to explain the plan and discuss why funding research, education and training for doctors benefits not only women but the nation as a whole.

Buying a property in France while in my 50s helped me find renovation and community in new ways. In May 2022, I found myself longing for a new life. I had spent the last 20 years rebuilding my life after my husband's death in the World Trade Center during the 9/11 attacks — raising a 2-year-old and 6-year-old alone, moving across the country to Seattle, writing books about grief, and rediscovering painting. My kids had both finished college and moved on with their lives, and I was alone and free for the first time since my 20s. I felt adrift. Then, my daughter showed me a YouTube video about a young couple with two small children renovating a chateau in France. They reminded me of my husband and me long ago, and how we'd renovated historic houses in cities like London and Boston while raising young children. As newlyweds, we'd dreamed about one day living somewhere in Europe, maybe a small cottage in the French countryside, but it became a faraway fantasy when he was relocated to the US for work. After watching those videos, that dream came bubbling back — and I realized now might be the perfect time to start chasing it.

The growing number of instances of artificial intelligence agents hacking the websites of governments and other institutions is a warning to countries using American models to do their own safety evaluations, experts said at a Rest of World event in New York last week. An OpenAI agent hacked into an Australian national healthcare database and accessed “public and non-public files,” Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said last week. It was the first such reported case. Days later, OpenAI said it had alerted “dozens” of global institutions that its AI agents had acted improperly to get information from their websites, sometimes circumventing security measures.

This article was featured in MH Flex, our monthly newsletter recommending the one in-depth interview you need to flex your pop culture knowledge. Sign up here to get it first. OVER THE LAST decade, Roman Reigns has established himself as one of WWE’s most iconic superstars. The reigning WWE heavyweight champ stands at 6′3″, weighs in at a chiseled 261 pounds, and generally looks like an IRL superhero—with a comic-style signature finishing move (the Superman punch) in the ring, too. So jacked is Reigns that he says he didn’t even focus on packing on any more muscle for his role as fiery martial artist Akuma in October’s blockbuster film Street Fighter, a colorful, kinetic thrill ride based on the beloved Capcom video game franchise of the same name. And that film, which includes a massive cast of badasses (think: 50 Cent, Jason Momoa, and fellow WWE star Cody Rhodes), might help springboard Reigns to an even bigger career in Hollywood. Yet every so often, when Reigns (real name: Joe Anoi’a) looks in the mirror, he’s just like the rest of us. He notices that his abs aren’t quite as defined as he wants, or that his chest lacks a little pop, or that something’s just a bit off.

A record-breaking 23 zettajoules of heat was sunk into the world’s seas last year, leaving ocean waters hotter, higher and less hospitable, a report has found. The explosive addition of thermal energy, which was almost 40 times greater than all the energy humanity used that year, comes amid far-reaching changes to the deep water bodies fundamental to life on Earth. Sea levels have risen by about 3.8mm per year since 1999, and at a faster rate of 4.2mm per year between 2012 and 2025, according to the 10th edition of the Copernicus ocean state report. It found the global ocean has become 17% more acidic in the last 40 years. Oceans have absorbed about one-third of the carbon dioxide that humanity has spewed and about 90% of the extra heat that greenhouse gas pollution has trapped in the Earth’s system. “The ocean is transforming before our eyes,” said Pierre Bahurel, director general of Mercator Ocean International, which published the report.
