Ex-Fleetwood Mac guitarist Buckingham says his lawsuit is settled
LOS ANGELES — Guitarist Lindsey Buckingham and his former Fleetwood Mac bandmates have settled a lawsuit he filed after he was axed from a tour, the musician said in a television interview that aired on Saturday.Buckingham, a key member of the British-American band with hits such as "Don't Stop" and "Go Your Own Way," did not disclose the terms of any settlement agreement, but he expressed little hope of rejoining Fleetwood Mac."I'm pretty much figuring that I won't," Buckingham told CBS News.Buckingham filed a civil lawsuit in October in Los Angeles Superior Court, accusing other members of the band of breach of contract and saying the dispute stemmed from a clash between the planned 2018/19 Fleetwood Mac tour and his wishes to play some solo...

On an otherwise quiet movie weekend, 'Ralph' wrecks it again
Hollywood — Disney's "Ralph Breaks the Internet" has again topped North American box offices, taking in an estimated $16.1 million for the weekend to narrowly edge out another family-oriented animation, Universal's "The Grinch," industry tracker Exhibitor Relations said Sunday.On a last quiet weekend before the coming crush of holiday films, the order of the top five films on this three-day weekend was, remarkably, exactly the same as last weekend."Ralph," a family-friendly sequel to 2012's "Wreck It Ralph" with the title character voiced by John C. Reilly, came in just ahead of "Grinch," which sold $15.7 million in tickets. Benedict Cumberbatch voices the grouchy Seuss-inspired title character in that film.In third spot again...

Enter the Bull: Fighters mix kung fu and bullfighting in China
BEIJING/JIAXING, China — Several times a week, kung fu teacher Ren Ruzhi enters a ring to spar with a bovine opponent around five times his weight and capable of killing him.Ren's mixing of martial arts and bullfighting worries his mother, but the 24-year-old has never been hurt. Besides, he says, grappling with a snorting bull is exciting."It symbolizes the bravery of a man," Ren told Reuters in Jiaxing in China's eastern province of Zhejiang.Unlike Spain's more famous sport, the Chinese variant of bullfighting involves no swords or gore but instead fuses the moves of wrestling with the skill and speed of kung fu to bring down beasts weighing up to 400 kg (882 lb).Han calls the bullfighting style he teaches "the explosive power of hard 'qigong'",...

Bug business: Cockroaches corralled by the millions in China to crunch waste
JINAN, China — In the near pitch-dark, you can hear them before you see them — millions of cockroaches scuttling and fluttering across stacks of wooden boards as they devour food scraps by the tonne in a novel form of urban waste disposal.The air is warm and humid — just as cockroaches like it — to ensure the colonies keep their health and voracious appetites.Expanding Chinese cities are generating more food waste than they can accommodate in landfills, and cockroaches could be a way to get rid of hills of food scraps, providing nutritious food for livestock when the bugs eventually die and, some say, cures for stomach illness and beauty treatments.On the outskirts of Jinan, capital of eastern Shandong province, a billion cockroaches are being fed with 50 tonnes of kitchen waste a...
