      Obamaโ€™s Last 100 Days: Cuba and Castros edition

      Ever since the administration of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, presidents have been judged on the successes they notch during their first 100 days. Now, as Barack Obama prepares to end his star turn on the political stage, Yahoo News is launching The Last 100 Days, a look at what Obama achieved during his consequential presidency, how he navigates the struggles of his final months in office and what lies ahead for him after eight years filled with firsts. As Obama himself is fond of noting, he also spent his two terms as father to daughters Malia and Sasha and husband to first lady Michelle Obama.

      IS leader in Afghanistan and Pakistan killed in US strike

      The Islamic State group's leader in Afghanistan and Pakistan, Hafiz Saeed, was killed last month in an airstrike in Nangarhar province, the Pentagon said Friday. Saeed was named head of IS's "Khorasan province," which includes Afghanistan, Pakistan and parts of neighboring countries, early last year when a group of Pakistani Taliban switched allegiance to the jihadist group.

      Judge tosses fired band director's suit against Ohio State

      A federal judge dismissed the civil-rights lawsuit filed by Ohio State University's fired marching band director Friday, putting an almost certain end to Jonathan Waters' two-year legal fight. Federal Judge James Graham rejected Waters' argument that he was treated differently than a similarly-situated Ohio State female employee who faced allegations about "sexualized behavior" on the cheerleading squad. The judge also rejected Waters' argument that he was scapegoated to help resolve an ongoing federal Title IX investigation at Ohio State, which was dropped shortly after his firing.

      This Bollywood Star Keeps Getting Stopped at U.S. Airports

      For Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan, a third time trying to enter the United States has proven not to be a charm. Khan, known as the โ€œKing of Bollywoodโ€ and one of the most famous men in Asia and across the Indian diaspora, flew into Los Angeles on Thursday. In 2009, Khan was stopped by officials at the Newark airport en route to Chicago for a parade to mark Indiaโ€™s independence day.

      French City Outlaws โ€˜Burkinisโ€™ on Beaches

      The mayor of the French city of Cannes has banned the wearing of burkinis โ€“ full-body swimsuits worn by some Muslim women โ€“ on its beaches. Mayor David Lisnard issued an ordinance forbidding beachwear that doesnโ€™t respect โ€œgood morals and secularism,โ€ noting that swimwear โ€œmanifesting religious affiliation in an ostentatious wayโ€ could impact public order while France is the target of terrorist attacks, the BBC reported. A spokeswoman confirmed to NBC that the ordinance applies to burkinis but the mayor told local media that other religious symbols, including the kippah (Jewish skullcap) and the cross, would still be permitted.

      Trump discovers the media canโ€™t take a joke when it comes to Obama and ISIS

      Ratings challenged @CNN reports so seriously that I call President Obama (and Clinton) โ€œthe founderโ€ of ISIS, & MVP. The business mogul first used the line at a rally on Wednesday, saying Obama and Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton were โ€œco-foundersโ€ of ISIS and that Obama deserved the โ€œmost valuable player awardโ€ for letting the terrorist group gain traction.
