While a physical examination is never enough to diagnose PMP, it can be a helpful starting point to point your healthcare provider in the right direction.

NEWSEEK: Is this the real thing? Alon Liel: I think it’s a breakthrough. Do you think this was done with an American blessing? I think it was coordinated with the Americans. The fact that the three leaders agreed on the Madrid framework means that the Americans will be a part of it. Not only would the Americans be involved, but the Palestinians. The leaders see the talks as including the Syrians and the Palestinians, which is very, very meaningful....

Erstwhile Reading Rainbow host Burton followed an exhaustive list of stars when he took to the lectern for the final week of July, arriving to much fanfare as fans and fellow celebrities alike expressed their support for him landing the permanent job.

Mono may be the sole cause or a contributor of persistent fatigue. But if you’re not getting better, your healthcare provider may also want to consider sleep disorders such as sleep apnea. Mononucleosis Causes Mononucleosis is not a sleep disorder but it can cause fatigue that’s just as debilitating. Mono is sometimes called the “kissing disease” due to its easy transmission via saliva, which means a lot of people catch it through a kiss or by personal contact, as well as sharing food and dishes....

For the second consecutive season, San Francisco lost its starting running back to a knee injury in Week 1. Elijah Mitchell (six carries, 41 yards) lasted longer this year than Raheem Mostert (two carries, 20 yards) did in 2021, but the 49ers still find themselves tapping into their backfield depth chart as the NFL calendar turns the page to Week 2. Mitchell has been oft-injured during his brief NFL career, so seeing him exit early wasn’t shocking....

Megalodon (Otodus megalodon) is an extinct shark species that lived between 23 million and 3.6 million years ago.

Samantha Grant was first told her sister was dating a descendant of Queen Elizabeth II during a telephone call in 2016. Thomas Markle asked her “are you sitting down?” before revealing Meghan—then an actress on Suits—was “dating a prince.” In memoir The Diary of Princess Pushy’s Sister, Samantha Markle describes taking the call after she “got in the door from the grocery store.” The book states: “I answered it, and to my surprise, it was my dad....

In most cases, metastatic cancer is diagnosed after a cancer has already been treated at an earlier stage....

Regardless of whether that ambitious number is accurate, it’s the 1.1 percent of calls that are missed that make NFL viewers wonder how much the referees and other game officials are paid. NFL officiating is a thankless job, but referees, umpires, down judges, line judges, field judges, side judges and back judges make pretty good money considering their pro football jobs are part-time gigs. For two years from 2017-18, the NFL had a program in place that made roughly 20 percent of its officiating roster full-time league employees....

The new Chainsaw Massacre is the latest in a long line of so-called “legacy sequels”—in just the last year, we have had Halloween Kills and the new Scream. In the Netflix film’s case, this means that it sets itself up as the sequel to the first film but disregards a lot of stuff from the later sequels—easy to do with this franchise, where Leatherface’s origins, motivations and even name have pretty much changed with every film....

How Decisions Are Made Where an ambulance crew ultimately takes you depends on the system used. The determination is sometimes made automatically the moment you call 911. In other cases, you may be routed by a coordinator tasked with distributing patients evenly between regional hospitals. Unless someone steps in and provides a rationale for change, you may be rushed across town even if your local hospital is just blocks away....
