Outer reaches of solar system could harbor another planet-or evidence modifying laws of gravity A pair of theoretical physicists are reporting that the same observations inspiring the hunt for a ninth planet might instead be evidence within the solar system of a modified law of gravity originally developed to understand the rotation of galaxies. Researchers Harsh Mathur, a professor of physics at Case Western Reserve University, and Katherine Brown, an associate professor of physics at Hamilton College, made the assertion after studying the effect the Milky Way galaxy would have on objects in the outer solar system-if the laws of gravity were governed by a theory known as Modified Newtonian Dynamics (or MOND).

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Desmond King isn't sure why the Houston Texans cut him last week. The veteran cornerback also doesn't particularly care. It took all of 48 hours for King to find a new gig, one at the other end of the NFL spectrum. King practically sprinted to Pittsburgh, eager to join a defense littered with stars and an organization that hasn't been through a full-on rebuild like the Texans are undergoing in decades. The Steelers signed King on Thursday to give them another experienced voice in a secondary that includes perennial All-Pro safety Minkah Fitzpatrick and eight-time Pro Bowler Patrick Peterson.

MANILA, Philippines — The International Criminal Court (ICC) appears to be 'standing on shaky ground' as it forges ahead in its investigation into the violent drug war of the Duterte administration, Senator Robin Padilla said Wednesday. Padilla, a known ally of former President Rodrigo Duterte, expressed 'full support' for the government's move to 'disengage' with the United Nations-backed tribunal after it rejected on Monday the Marcos administration's request to suspend the drug war probe pending the appeal to reverse the ruling authorizing the resumption of a full-blown investigation.
