3 EMTs were fired for their response to the fatal police beating of Tyre Nichols.

Three EMTs were fired yesterday after an internal investigation found they violated multiple department policies and protocols with their "actions or inactions" in response to the fatal beating of motorist Tyre Nichols on Jan. 7, the Memphis Fire Department said. The investigation found that two of the EMTs "failed to conduct an adequate patient assessment" of Nichols after arriving on the scene. Officials found that Nichols was not treated and taken to a hospital for 27 minutes after the EMTs arrived. Nichols died three days later from his injuries. Seven police officers have since been relieved of duty, including five who have been charged with second-degree murder. Here is the latest.

Cindy Williams, who played the straight-laced Shirley in the hit sitcom "Laverne & Shirley" from 1976 to 1983, has died at 75, her family confirmed yesterday. Williams and co-star Penny Marshall, who died in 2018, played roommates who work at a brewery in late '50s Milwaukee. Williams (above, right) also starred in the critically acclaimed films "American Graffiti" and "The Conversation" in the 1970s. "She was one of a kind, beautiful, generous and possessed a brilliant sense of humor and a glittering spirit that everyone loved," her two children said in a statement.

How do you know if you're ready to have kids? One Twitter thread has the answers.

It's one of life's weightiest questions — how do you know if you're ready to have children? One Ohio woman, Carissa Caples, 25, wanted some specifics before making her decision, so she asked people on Twitter how they knew they were in a good place to have kids. She made sure to add the caveat that they couldn't answer "no one is fully ready," writing she would like "goalposts" to shoot for. Caples, who has been married for three years and does not have children, received a host of thoughtful responses, with people specifying when they felt financially secure enough to have their first child as well as information on insurance and the psychological impact of pregnancy or infertility. See all the responses here. And if you're considering having children, here are 5 questions to ask yourself before getting pregnant.

When you only have so much time with the boys during your weekly meetup at the local bar, you have to get right down to business. One man has taken dad efficiency to a new level by bringing a printed agenda, complete with bullet points of conversation topics, to his "board meeting" with his friends for a few cold ones every Friday. His daughter tweeted a photo of a recent list, which included topics like "Bud vs. Bud Light," "the never ending Aaron Rodgers saga," and made sure to allot time for "general discussion." The man's daughter, who goes by Kenzi on Twitter, later tweeted that when she told him TODAY had posted about his agendas on Instagram, he replied, "I don't have instant gram." This only makes us want to get an invite to the weekly "board meeting" even more.
