Seventy-three seconds into its January 28, 1986, flight out of Cape Canaveral, the Challenger violently broke apart, resulting in the deaths of all seven astronauts aboard.

When you’ve been diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer, the most important step you can take to maximize your outcome is to find a good doctor and cancer center. With surgery, studies have shown that outcomes of lung cancer surgery are better at cancer centers that perform large volumes of these surgeries. Once you have met with a lung cancer specialist, it’s also very helpful to get a second opinion....

The individual health insurance market is vastly different today than it was before the ACA (aka, Obamacare) was implemented. And while the changes have not been as pronounced in the employer-sponsored health insurance market (particularly the large-group market), there are numerous aspects of the ACA that apply to the health plans that employers offer to their employees. This article will explain how the ACA applies to employer-sponsored health plans, and how its provisions have affected the health coverage that’s used by millions of American workers....

Every age has its illusions. Ours has been this fervent belief in the power of prosperity. Our pillars of faith are now crashing about us. We are discovering that we cannot, as we had once supposed, create prosperity at will. We still remain prey to the economy’s euphoric expansions and dispiriting declines. Worse, we are learning that even great amounts of prosperity won’t solve all our social problems. Our Good Society is disfigured by huge blemishes: entrenched poverty, persistent racial tension, the breakdown of the family and staggering budget deficits....

Growth hormone helps a child’s body grow and mature. The condition is usually diagnosed once a child’s growth stops or is significantly slow. Because there are several reasons why a child may be short for their age, an accurate diagnosis can take time. There is no one test that can diagnose pediatric growth hormone deficiency, so diagnosis usually requires a combination of physical exams, X-rays, and lab tests. Self-Checks and At-Home Testing There are no reliable self-checks or at-home tests for diagnosing pediatric growth hormone deficiency....

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle leveled racism allegations at an unnamed royal who they said expressed concern about how dark baby Archie’s skin would be before he was born. However, the couple were quick to rule out Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, Prince Philip, as possible suspects.

So how did Mitt Romney decide to exit the race? Eric Fehrnstrom, the former Massachusetts governor’s traveling press secretary, said the first clue came at a meeting of about 10 senior staffers at headquarters in Boston yesterday. At that session, Fehrnstrom says, Romney indicated that he “didn’t want to do anything that would hurt the party or hurt the nation.” That comment gave Fehrnstrom, a longtime Romney aide, an inkling that something was up....

Critics accuse Sarkozy of personalizing his power. What’ s changed in terms of where the power lies in France under this president? French institutions are such that, when the president has a majority in parliament, he has very, very strong power because the parliament is nothing like the American [Congress], inquiry commissions are nothing like American ones. That makes for a concentration of power that is pretty rare in other democracies....

Pastors and other religious leaders have attributed this trend to many factors: young people being raised outside the church, an unfamiliarity with liturgy and church culture, even COVID-19. We found another answer in our national survey to probe the underlying reasons for this growing unbelief: a misunderstanding of science. Perhaps surprisingly, our survey discovered that the perceived message of science has played a leading role in the loss of faith....

That still didn’t stop Bills fans and neutral NFL observers from criticizing Buffalo coach Sean McDermott, whose coaching decisions again came under scrutiny on the Monday night stage. MORE: Bills vs. Patriots final score, results: Patriots hold on for victory against Bills, stay atop AFC East No single play or decision by McDermott stood out more than others in the Bills’ 14-10 loss, but rather myriad decisions and lack of in-game adjustments that helped contribute to the Buffalo defeat....

And for the more than dozen senators who served during former President Bill Clinton’s trial and remain in office today, several of them have made contradicting remarks when it comes to the question at hand. Their shift in position is yet another reminder how lawmakers in both political parties argue that the current political climate and impeachment proceeding is different from the last. Democrats contend that in order for a “fair trial,” they must hear from witnesses, specifically four current or former administration officials, including acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney and former national security adviser John Bolton....

There are two basic types of microdermabrasion—crystal microdermabrasion and diamond microdermabrasion. They both offer similar benefits, but the process between the two is slightly different.

On the first drive where he made an appearance, Lance put the 49ers on the board with their first touchdown of the season, snapping off a 5-yard touchdown pass to Trent Sherfield. The following week?

After Sunday night’s listless, 37-10 loss to the NFC East-leading Cowboys in Dallas, fingers are being pointed, and a few notable pundits are screaming from just about every direction toward Philadelphia during the NFL’s typical weekly hot-take circus. The Eagles’ slow starts. Doug Pederson’s silly guarantees. Carson Wentz’s efficiency struggles. DeSean Jackson’s abdomen injury. Zach Ertz’s diminished role. The running game’s general ineffectiveness. The offensive line’s gross underachieving. The locker room’s rumored dissension....

Be careful not to tear any existing fabric while you remove the seat cushion. If you’re going to refinish the wood of the chair too, remove the upholstered seat first but wait until you finish the wood to reupholster and attach the seat again. If the seat is not screwed on, look for other hardware holding it in place and remove it with the appropriate tool. For example, if it is bolted on, use a wrench to loosen the bolts....

This lever is usually right next to or underneath the steering column. Typically, it’s about 4 in (10 cm) long. In some electric vehicles, the process for adjusting your steering wheel is different. If you’re in a Tesla, hit Controls > Steering, then use the arrows to move your steering wheel up and down. Adjust the steering wheel so that the top of the wheel is about as high as the top of your shoulder....

1. Establish Boundaries When leaders are experiencing the perfect leader trap, they are stretching themselves too thin. The first adjustment leaders need to make is to establish boundaries with all their stakeholders. Some leaders have trouble establishing boundaries because they feel like they aren’t being present for their people. Others have trouble because it feels uncomfortable to have those conversations with those they lead. Regardless of the reason, a leader who isn’t establishing boundaries isn’t doing anyone any favors....
