Vogue’s editor Anna Wintour has never directly explained why she decided not to put Trump on the cover when her husband was in the White House but, in a 2019 interview, she did discuss how the magazine chooses political figures to appear in its pages. “Obviously these are women that we feel are icons and inspiring to women from a global perspective,” Wintour told CNN, referring to Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton and Jacinda Ardern, the prime minister of New Zealand....

The questions your healthcare provider asks about your medical history and current symptoms, as well as the results of your physical examination and any additional testing, will help you get an accurate diagnosis.

When surgery is used, it is not always the first step. Chemotherapy (with radiation) may be given either before surgery, to reduce the size of the tumor, or after surgery, to clean up any cancer cells that may have been left behind. If there is a chance that a cancer has spread to lymph nodes, a lymph node dissection is often done. Reconstructive surgery with skin, muscle, and/or bone grafts may be needed....

Types of Pain Scales Because pain assessment resists standardized measurements, healthcare providers can use one or more of several different rating methods, including: Numerical rating: Usually based on a scale from zero to 10, this scale assigns a measurable number to your pain level.

To alleviate the problem, scientists are going to the source by genetically modifying plants to produce fewer allergens. Sachin Rustgi, PhD, assistant professor of molecular breeding at Clemson University in South Carolina, works to reduce the gluten content of wheat to make it more edible for people with celiac disease and gluten sensitivities. He presented his team’s research at the 2020 ASA-CSSA-SSSA Annual Meeting in November.

In a new video posted to the official Star Trek site, prop master Jeff Lombardi described how he brought back together Data’s far-flung body parts—or, more precisely, the body parts of B-4, a prototype android that Data uploaded all of his memories into before his death. “We’re the people who manage and build the materials that an actor uses, physically, on the set,” Lombardi says in the video, describing a prop master’s role on set, which nearly as often involves finding items the actor may never touch....

China’s primary influence in Africa comes from its economic weight, though ideological factors do play an overlooked and evolving role in China-Africa relations. Over the past decade, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has increasingly promoted its authoritarian governance model in the developing world. The PRC no longer exports a coherent, universal ideology like Maoism, as it has no such ideology to offer. While Xi often evokes Mao, he is no revolutionary....

Rhetoric around the use of such weapons has ramped up on both sides, culminating in President Joe Biden’s warning of nuclear “Armageddon” on October 6. There is no intelligence to suggest an attack is imminent—but what would happen to the world’s most-populated cities if a nuclear war began? “It really depends on the size of the weapon,” Moritz Kütt, a research associate at the University of Hamburg’s Institute for Peace Research and Security Policy, told Newsweek....

Note, though, that signing Judge was “one of the bold moves” the Yankees needed to make to compete for titles in 2023. Because even with Judge mashing all season — did you know he hit 62 home runs? — the Yankees’ lineup had multiple weak spots in 2022. There’s more work to be done. The Yankees paid Judge to stay. Now they need to pay a few more players to leave....

It wasn’t for a further three years that Perez got a new goalkeeper, but it was Courtois, not de Gea, who signed. This came after Keylor Navas had made himself Real Madrid’s number one and many viewed Courtois’ arrival as unnecessary. The Belgian wasn’t helped by a shaky first season for his new club. Since then, though, Courtois has grown to the point that he is now considered among the best goalkeepers in the world....

Instead, the 26-year-old was put on a waiting list because the COVID-19 pandemic had created a backlog of applicants. This gave him time to think. “I actually wanted to do something more creative,” he told Newsweek, “but I just didn’t have the confidence or know-how on what to do.” Bored at home in Dubai, U.A.E, he started posting cooking videos to TikTok, having had modest experience preparing food as a chalet boy when he was 18....
