(AP) — The Mormon church is scaling back the Sunday time commitment expected of its members from three hours to two.Russell M. Nelson, president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, announced the change Saturday at the faith's twice-yearly conference. He says the new "home-centered church" strategy reflects the faith's increasingly global membership where not all Latter-day Saints live close to a chapel or even have a chapel.Since 1980, church members have been expected to attend a one-hour sacrament worship service each Sunday, followed by two hours of meetings such as Sunday school and men's and women's groups.RELATED: Latter-day Saints dropping the 'Mormon' monikerUnder the schedule change, which takes effect in January, members will continue attending the one-hour Sunday service but then have only one additional hour of meetings.Quentin L. Cook, a member of a Mormon leadership group called the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, says church leaders have been aware for years that the three-hour block was difficult for many.The news comes as the leaders recently announced renaming the famed Mormon Tabernacle Choir to drop the word Mormon.The decision to rename the singing group the Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square was the first major move since Nelson in August called for an end to the use of shorthand names for the religion that have been used for generations by church members and the public. 1442

(CNN) -- California is the latest state to allow people to take home and eat animals they accidentally hit on the road, including deer, elk, pronghorn antelopes and wild pigs.Senate Bill 395 was among a handful of other bills Gov. Gavin Newsom signed into law last week.The bill, brought forth by Sen. Bob Archuleta, authorizes the state's Fish and Game Commission to develop a pilot program which, through the help of an online portal, would issue free permits to anyone who wants to take the animal they killed on the road home to eat.To get permits, residents would have to record in the portal "the location, type, and description of the animal salvaged, the date and time of salvage, the basic characteristics of the incident and a description of the vehicle involved... and the destination where the carcass will be transported," the legislation says.More than 20,000 deer are hit on California roadways each year, the bill says."This potentially translates into hundreds of thousands of pounds of healthy meat that could be used to feed those in need."The program will not start immediatelyThe commission can only start creating the pilot program -- which would cover limited areas of the state -- once it receives funding from the legislature.The legislation merely gives the commission authority to create the program, and once created, it would cover a maximum of three areas identified as having a high number of vehicle-animal collisions.The commission will have until January 1, 2022 to create the program, if it receives funds.Archuleta says the law would help the California Department of Transportation and the Department of Fish and Wildlife "identify where roadway defenses can be enhanced and where future wildlife highway over-crossings should be located."Once this experimental program concludes, the bill says, officials will report to the commission the number of collisions during a certain time period, barriers to their collection of data and whether it's possible to make the system state-wide, as well as the estimated costs.The information, it says, could help find ways to prevent collisions.This is not a new ideaRoadkill salvage legislation has been passed in more than 20 states across the country, including Florida, Washington state, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.Illinois passed its roadkill salvage law in 2012.Most states, like California's rules, provide provisions on which animals may be taken for personal use and clarify whether a permit is required.Montana's law, for example, allows free salvage permits to be issued only for deer, elk, moose and antelope that were killed by cars.Michigan, which adopted its roadkill legislation in 2014, listed feedback received on the bill, including exposing residents to potential health risks."Drivers and law enforcement officers may not be able to make a determination of whether meat from game killed in a motor vehicle accident is safe for people to handle or eat," a memorandum says. "Furthermore, fresh meat must be properly dressed and stored relatively quickly in order to avoid the growth of potential pathogens."Legislators also warned that poachers may use the new law to unlawfully kill wild animals.Other states that allow the practice include Arizona, New Jersey, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Idaho, Oregon and Vermont.The pros and cons?Some animal rights activists seem to love the idea.PETA says eating roadkill is a "superior option to the neatly shrink-wrapped plastic packages of meat in the supermarket."Eating roadkill, the organization says, is much healthier than packaged meat as those animals most likely haven't consumed antibiotics, hormones and growth stimulants.It's also more humane, PETA said, as the animals who were killed on roads did not have to endure things like getting "castrated, dehorned, or debeaked without anesthesia" and other traumatizing conditions."Perhaps the animals never knew what hit them," the organization said.But other groups have raised concerns.The new legislation may prompt elk and antelope hunters who struggle getting a tag in the state to now kill the animals and report it as roadkill, the California Fish and Game Wardens' Association has previously said, according to CNN affiliate KOVR.Another concern the association raised was the safety of drivers who would stop on roadways and exit their vehicles in order to collect the animals. 4392

(AP) — As vice president in 2012, Joe Biden endeared himself to many LGBTQ Americans by endorsing same-sex marriage even before his boss, President Barack Obama. Now, as president-elect, Biden is making sweeping promises to LGBTQ activists, proposing to carry out virtually every major proposal on their wish lists. One is to lift the Trump administration’s near-total ban on military service for transgender people. Biden also is backing a bill passed by the House last year that would extend federal anti-discrimination protections to LGBTQ people nationwide. But most Senate Republicans are wary, due in part to opposition from religious conservatives who say the measure threatens religious liberty. 711

(CNN) -- An American graduate student, who had been held for three years in Iran on suspicion of being a spy, has been freed and is headed to an American military base in Europe.Chinese-born Xiyue Wang, a Princeton University PhD student, was conducting research in Tehran when he was arrested there on espionage charges in August 2016. Wang was sent to Iran's notorious Evin Prison and sentenced to 10 years.Iran's Foreign Minister Javad Zarif said Saturday that Wang's release comes as a prisoner swap between the two countries. In exchange for Wang's release, the US freed Iranian scientist Massoud Soleimani, Zarif said on Twitter, sharing a photo of himself accompanying Soleimani home on an Iranian plane. Soleimani, an Iranian stem cell scientist, was arrested by US law enforcement upon landing in Chicago in fall 2018, according to Iran's state-run Press TV.Zarif said Soleimani and Wang would be "joining their families shortly."Because the US and Iran do not have diplomatic relations, the Swiss government had provided consular services to Wang and reported back to the State Department.The White House announced Wang's release in a statement early Saturday, thanking the Swiss for their assistance in negotiating with Iran. US officials have not replied to CNN's request for comment regarding Iran's claim of Soleimani's release."Freeing Americans held captive is of vital importance to my Administration, and we will continue to work hard to bring home all our citizens wrongfully held captive overseas," President Donald Trump said in a statement.Wang was headed to a US base in Europe and then eventually will travel back to the US after being freed from an Iranian prison, a source familiar with the matter told CNN. The source did not provide details about the location or the reason for the stop at the base, but in past instances Americans who have been held overseas in foreign detention have been taken to such locations for a medical evaluation. The source could not say how long he might spend at the base before returning to the US.Wang was flown on a Swiss government airplane to Zurich from Iran, a different source familiar with the matter confirmed to CNN. Brian Hook, the State Department's special representative for Iran, met him in Zurich, the source confirmed.The New York Times first reported the details of the Zurich arrival.'He was simply a scholar'Wang was born in 1980 in Beijing and immigrated in 2001 to the US, where he became a naturalized citizen in 2009. Wang's wife, Hua Qu, and his young son, Shaofan, are Chinese citizens.Wang is a student of late 19th and early 20th century Eurasian history, according to Princeton University. With funding from the university, Wang went to Iran to study Farsi and conduct scholarly research for his dissertation.Before traveling to Iran, Wang laid out his research plan in letters to the Pakistani Embassy in Washington, DC, which issued his visa."He was not involved in any political activities or social activism; he was simply a scholar trying to gain access to materials he needed for his dissertation," the university says.Iran accused Wang of being "sent" by Princeton to "infiltrate" the country, charges which the university says are "completely false."In 2018, a United Nations panel on arbitrary detention said that there was no legal basis for Wang's arrest and imprisonment, and called for his immediate release.'Bargaining chip'In August, three years after he was imprisoned, Wang's wife, Hua Qu, issued a plea for Trump and the international community to help free her husband."My husband is an academic researcher. He's a father, husband. He is not a political figure and he is definitely not a spy," Qu said at at the National Press Club in Washington, adding that she felt Wang was being used as a "bargaining chip" in a "geopolitical dispute" between the US and Iran.While Qu said at the time that she was in regular contact with the State Department, including Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs Robert O'Brien, she was looking for the administration to do more. She referenced the fact that Trump had dispatched O'Brien to Sweden on behalf of A$AP Rocky, noting that the arrested rapper "quickly got released."On Saturday, Qu celebrated her husband's release, saying in a statement: "Our family is complete once again. Our son Shaofan and I have waited three long years for this day and it's hard to express in words how excited we are to be reunited with Xiyue."After news of Wang's release broke, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo wrote on Twitter Saturday that the US would "not rest until we bring every American detained in Iran and around the world back home to their loved ones." 4708
