That trek to South Dakota on your Harley isn’t going to get you a tax deduction. Sorry.

The Society of CPAs did a study on the ridiculous things people have tried to use as deductions – and it’s pretty funny. Business deduction fails: Someone tried to write off their pop-up camper, calling...

The men were 40 or...

While Gaga did indeed do the leap without a stunt double's help, this part of the show was performed in advance. After it aired, the cameras cut to Gaga somersaulting as she soared swiftly through the air to a podium to continue the show. For those inside the arena the show began with Gaga hanging from her guide wires, in the dark. Footage shot from fans shows a motionless Gaga suspended from the wires. Suddenly a spotlight shines on her, and she starts her descent. Intel which was behind the drones used in the pre-recorded feat blamed the need to...

First it was Deflategate and now Tom Brady is enmeshed in Jerseygate — and a Texas official has the state’s storied Rangers hot on the trail.

Brady told reporters he last saw his game-used threads in the New England dressing room Sunday night in Houston, following the Patriots’ stunning 34-28 overtime win. “The jersey, I put it in my bag and I came out and...

Early during tonight’s game, Google’s ad for the Google Home aired on millions of TVs. We’ve actually seen the ad before: loving families at home meeting, hugging, and being welcomed by the Google Assistant. Someone says “Okay, Google,” and those familiar, colorful lights pop up. But then my Google Home perked up, confused. “Sorry,” it said. “Something went wrong.” I laughed, because that wasn’t supposed to happen. I wasn’t the only one.

President Donald Trump, who entered the White House with historically low approval ratings, continues to receive record high disapproval ratings compared to his predecessors. Two weeks into Trump’s presidency, a majority of people (53%) disapprove of how he is handling the job, while just 44% approve, according to a CNN/ORC poll released Friday.

By comparison, former President Ronald Reagan’s initial approval rating of 51% was only slightly higher than Trump’s, but his disapproval rating (13%) was not nearly as...
