Tonya Couch's trip to Mexico with son Ethan was anything but a mother-son holiday getaway. Her shorter hair wasn't just a new 'do. Ethan's dark-brown dye job was no trip to Sports Clips. Mom and son had been on the lam, and their capture in Puerto Vallarta ended an international manhunt for Ethan, who was wanted for violating his 10 years' probation. Ethan, now 18, was found responsible for a drunken-driving crash that killed four people in 2013. He was sentenced to probation after his defense team claimed the then-16-year-old suffered from "affluenza," a condition contracted from coddling parents that leaves its victims without any sense of consequence. When Mexico returns the Couches to the USA, prosecutors say, mom Tonya will face charges of hindering apprehension because she planned the escape — which was complete with a going-away party.
A new "sailing season" is beginning in Southeast Asia. The phrase sounds benign — like a nice day on the water. It's so not that. As the monsoon season passes and the sea calms, tens of thousands of Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar make a grim decision to sail eastward on boats run by smuggling syndicates. Their goal: securing work in Thailand or Malaysia. Many die at sea. Those who don't are often swept into human-trafficking rings infamous for rape, extortion and burying those who can’t pay ransoms in jungle graves. As the West copes with a highly politicized influx of families fleeing Syria and Iraq, this lesser-known Asian crisis still simmers.
But not just any Olive Garden. It's the Olive Garden in Times Square, and for $400, you get drinks, a DJ and food. (We hope there are breadsticks. Lots of breadsticks. Mmmm.) While some may shake their head at the idea of spending $400 to ring in the New Year at Olive Garden, others think the price tag isn't so bad. Maybe easy access to a bathroom and an open bar is worth it. Can't digest spending that cash? Here are some other weird things that drop at midnight.
We knew not to bring our hoverboards to the airport. Some people didn't get the memo, and they aren't happy about the ban on flying with the devices. By "some people" we mean Russell Crowe. The actor (who is not shy about things that make him unhappy ) took to Twitter after he showed up at the airport and found out he couldn't bring along his hoverboard. Virgin Australia's response? We say it was pretty reasonable. Crowe? Still pretty unhappy. What's clear: Hoverboards are causing damage all over the place. They must be stopped.
Talk about puppy love. A British couple are now the happy parents to not just one, but two clones of deceased canine pal Dylan. Laura Jacques, 29, and Richard Remde, 43, of Yorkshire, England, welcomed the second pup — Shadow — to the world Sunday, a day after they filmed the first moments in the life of clone No. 1, Chance. It didn't come cheap: The couple doled out $100,000 to a South Korean tech company for the pups. Not everyone's thrilled about the new little yappers, reports USA TODAY Network's Mary Bowerman. There are no regulations on cloning pets, but the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals told The Guardian the practice is "concerning." Puppy love, indeed.
