During a 2014 conversation with radio host Michael Krasny at the Jewish Community Federation and Endowment Fund’s Day of Philanthropy, Albright explained how she received the nickname “Madam Cojones,” which was brought to light on social media shortly after the news of her death. Albright explained during the interview that while she was serving as an ambassador to the United Nations under then-President Bill Clinton in 1996, “Cubans shot down unarmed civilian planes that were flying over international waters, piloted by Cuban-Americans....

That’s right. For the third consecutive season, Tampa Bay is in the final round of the Stanley Cup playoffs. This year, the club is going for a three-peat, with the Avalanche standing in its way. The Lightning not only are playing in their third straight final, but it is their fourth final appearance in the past eight seasons. Led by Steven Stamkos, Nikita Kucherov, Victor Hedman and Andrei Vasilevskiy, the club is aiming for history....

The answer to that depends on different factors, such as the physical activity you choose to do. Physical activity is defined as “any bodily movement produced by the contraction of skeletal muscle that increases energy expenditure above a basal level,” according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Exercise is a “planned, structured, repetitive” form of physical activity that’s performed with the goal of improving health or fitness....

The U.S. bombed Japan towards the end of the Second World War, prompting the Japanese to surrender on August 15, 1945, bringing the conflict to an end. The first atomic bomb—known as “Little Boy”—was dropped on Hiroshima by a modified B-29 bomber christened Enola Gay, after the mother of its pilot, Colonel Paul Tibbets. The 9,000-pound uranium-235 bomb was dropped at 8.15 a.m local time, exploding 2,000 feet above Hiroshima....

After a grueling battle against the Guardians in the ALDS, they’re taking on a rested Astros team. This will be the third time in six years they’ve seen Houston in the championship series. For Yankee fans, however, it doesn’t matter who they’re playing or when. They expect to win. That expectation is well-earned. The Yankees are one of the most storied teams in sports, with a legacy that is synonymous with MLB excellence....

In most people, symptoms show up and go away without treatment. Some at-home remedies and over-the-counter (OTC) therapies can help with symptoms and ease discomfort. Still, no medicine can “cure” this upper respiratory infection. In some people, hMPV can develop into a lower respiratory tract infection, affecting the airways and lungs. In rare cases, it may require hospitalization and medical treatment. This article will look at the treatment options for human metapneumovirus infection, including home remedies, OTC treatments, prescription drugs, and more....

Even the addition of Video Assistant Referees (VAR) has not made things easier, with plenty of controversy surrounding the new technology designed to limit mistakes. Some of the Premier League’s best known referees have gone on to officiate in World Cups and European Championships, with Howard Webb becoming the first person to referee both the Champions League final and the World Cup final in the same year. Webb retired in 2014, and has gone on to have a career in broadcasting with BT Sport, providing analysis on refereeing decisions in live games....

Tipping in the United States isn’t technically mandatory, but it’s usually considered rude not to. Many people go for a 20% tip because the math is easier. Just move the decimal in the final price one spot to the left, then double that amount. Bringing cash also makes it easier to tip multiple people if you had your hair shampooed by a salon assistant, for example. Your barber or salon is taking care of you by offering a discounted cut, so take care of them in return with your gratuity....

When you go to a studio, you aren’t just paying for a piercing—you’re paying for an experienced professional to pierce you safely and with the proper equipment. Leaving a tip is a great way to acknowledge and thank the piercer for doing a service that you couldn’t (safely) do at home. [2] X Research source While it’s great if you can leave a tip, it’s not the end of the world if you can’t, either....

The College Football Playoff committee on Thursday unveiled a proposal for a 12-team format that will be considered later this month. The four-team CFP will not change for at least the next two seasons, but some wrinkles in the planned new playoff would impact the Irish. “We cannot qualify for a bye. It’s limited to the four highest-ranked champions,” Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick said on the College Football Playoff teleconference....

There’s no other way to describe Iowa’s 55-24 blowout at Kinnick Stadium from No. 6 Ohio State’s point of view. Where do you start? It gives the Buckeyes two losses. It complicates the Big Ten’s College Football Playoff picture. It’s one of the most inexplicable losses of the Urban Meyer era at Ohio State (7-2, 5-1). MORE: Big Ten’s playoff hopes take massive hit It started on the first play from scrimmage when J....

Like many families across the world, the royals have their own special Easter traditions, which include church services and family get-togethers. For the past two years, the royals’ official public Easter celebrations have been canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic. Since then the Queen, who will be 96 on April 21, has suffered a series of health scares and increased mobility issues. 2022 will also mark the second year that the monarch’s husband Prince Philip will not be around to take part in the celebrations....

It remains the only time the 95-year-old monarch has visited the country and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine makes it unlikely any royal will consider a tour of the country any time soon. Elizabeth made the 1994 state visit at the invitation of the then Russian President Boris Yeltsin but the three-day trip proved a personal and political minefield for the British queen. The visit marked a crucial time in Russia’s history....

The 95-year-old monarch marks 70 years on the throne in February 2022 and there will be celebrations throughout the year in Britain. The centerpiece will be a long, four day weekend at the start of June when there will be a U.K. public holiday on Thursday and Friday. Five thousand people led by a giant dragon the size of a London bus will march through London to end the four-day bonanza....

If renal cell carcinoma is suspected, diagnosis usually begins with a physical examination and lab work that may reveal blood in the urine and other signs. Imaging studies and a biopsy will also be done to confirm the diagnosis and help guide treatment. This article will explain the diagnostic process for renal cell carcinoma as well as how the cancer is staged. Self-Checks/Screening There are currently no self-checks, at-home tests, or routine screening tests that are helpful in the diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma....

Although the Islamic Republic’s next steps were yet unclear, President Donald Trump has already begun bolstering the U.S. military posture in the region. As Newsweek reported, the U.S. has mobilized its Patriot surface-to-air missile systems in Bahrain and reportedly sent up to 3,500 additional personnel to the region in preparation for retaliation. The U.S. has kept a watchful eye on its adversary’s activities. The Defense Intelligence Agency, for example, laid out a number of Iran’s weaponry in a series of playing cards in August, and in November, the agency released a comprehensive report detailing the Islamic Republic’s military capabilities, along with its history and strategy....

As a result, the approach to diagnosing this condition is made through a physical examination and various imaging tests, such as a computed tomography (CT) scan or an X-ray. Doctors may also perform a biopsy, removing a sample of the tumor to be examined to determine if it contains cancerous cells. This article will detail the specific tests doctors use to effectively diagnose Synovial sarcoma. Self-Checks The earliest sign of synovial sarcoma is often a lump or swelling that seemingly comes out of nowhere....

The girl was found 11 days after her abduction thanks to an organization’s use of face-recognition technology that helped identify her pictures — nude photos posted in online sex ads. Reading this news story was an eye-opener. Working in the identity and fraud prevention industry brought to light the numerous unintentional missteps that occurred along this girl’s horrific trafficking timeline. Had more people been armed with the right knowledge, tools and protocols, this story could have been prevented, not just for her but for the stories happening worldwide....
