Boeing's CEO is missing out on a $7 million bonus because the company's new large jet is behind schedule. But Boeing said Friday that CEO David Calhoun still got compensation valued at $22.5 million for 2022. The company says the $7 million bonus won't vest because its new 777X jetliner won't be ready to enter service by the end of this year. The company expects the plane to begin flying in 2025, or five years later than originally planned. Boeing lost $5 billion last year including write-downs, as it dealt with setbacks to its 787 Dreamliner passenger jet and defense projects.

It took just two days at the PNC Championship for Tiger Woods to show he can still hit all the shots. He just can't walk to them at the moment. A few shots stood out to him. One was a 3-iron into the 18th green on Saturday. Another was the drive he hit some 15 yards past Justin Thomas. That prompted Woods to leave a note for Thomas in the fairway to remind him the old guy can still play. It was enough to raise the possibility of Woods doing something special after he recovers from plantar fasciitis.

The Biden administration has been conspicuously silent about how migrants should enter the United States when Trump-era asylum limits end, fueling rumors, confusion and doubts about its readiness.

Wang Yu has already been arrested, imprisoned and harassed by the Chinese Communist Party for her work as a human rights lawyer representing activists, Uyghur scholars and Falun Gong practitioners. This year, her movements also have been restricted by a color-coded app on her phone that’s supposed to protect people from COVID-19. The health codes have become ubiquitous in China in recent years as the country has struggled to contain the novel coronavirus, pushing the public to a breaking point that erupted in protests late last month. Last week the government announced it would discontinue the national health code, but even after lockdowns end, some dissidents and activists predict the health codes will remain in place in some form.

When Rita Wilson was young, her mother encouraged her to think about lyrics from new perspectives. The actor and singer-songwriter brought that idea to her new album, “Rita Wilson Now & Forever: Duets,” in which she and her collaborators reinterpret '70s-era songs, mostly ones not originally recorded as duets. She worked with Willie Nelson, Smokey Robinson, Keith Urban, Jackson Browne and many more for the album. Wilson said she and her co-producer looked for great songs that could sound like a conversation between two people. She says making music lets her ”stay in that creative conversation and in a very connected way."
