Hooked On Hookahs

Of course, the water pipes known as hookahs, narghiles, sheeshas or hubble-bubbles have been around for centuries. But the smoking experience that was once the domain of old men in Middle Eastern cafes is now attracting new and younger audiences all over the world. Cafes from Kiev to San Diego are offering hookahs to their patrons; Paris alone has more than 50 sheesha cafes with evocative names like the Bagdad Cafe and Salon Egyptien....

Horizons Unlimited

Banks’s first solo album, “The Hunger for More,” isn’t a travelogue in the sense that a Peter Mayle would understand, but it’s a tour of his own obsessions: with love, death and, of course, success in the world of hip- hop. Featuring guest appearances by Banks’s childhood buddy 50 and production help from Eminem, it should lure rap fans back north in a year dominated by such Southern acts as OutKast and Ludacris....

Hospitals Have Lost Fewer Employees In 2021 Than 2020 Despite Nursing Shortage Crisis

Since the outset of the pandemic, one goal of “flattening the curve” has been to prevent health care systems from being overwhelmed by increased hospitalizations. However, each wave of COVID-19 cases has pushed hospitals to a breaking point, and the added strain on health care workers, particularly nurses, has caused many to rethink their current job. The pandemic has exacerbated a shortage of nurses, and as resources were deployed to the hardest-hit areas, some nurses saw a financial opportunity....

Hot Reads Key Super Bowl Matchup Isn T What You Think

In his latest Hot Reads video, Hall of Fame quarterback and Fox analyst Troy Aikman says he’s as interested as anyone to see whether Peyton Manning can overcome a Seahawks defense “that really doesn’t have any weaknesses,” but a critical, less-hyped element to the game will be Denver’s ability to slow Marshawn Lynch. The Broncos struggled defensively during the first part of the season, but in the team’s last four games, it has allowed just 70 yards rushing per game....

House Report Calls Out Billions In Ppp Loan Fraud Mnuchin Says Treasury Working To Recover Funds

A report led by Democrats on the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis outlined nearly $3 billion in potential Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan fraud, waste or abuse due to “a lack of oversight and accountability” from the Treasury Department and the Small Business Administration. Still, GOP lawmakers showed little concern during a hearing with Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin, with the Trump administration official vowing that the agency would recoup most of the lost funds and Republicans criticizing their Democratic colleagues for highlighting the waste in an otherwise successful initiative that saved millions of jobs....

Houston Texans Draft Needs Jadeveon Clowney Trade Rumors At No. 1

Early this offseason it seemed a passer could be destined for Eastern Texas with the first pick. Now it's likely to only be the case if Texans general manager Rick Smith and new head coach Bill O'Brien can find the right deal to move down for their guy. Houston also possesses the top pick in each ensuing round. Sporting News' Eric Galko sent Clowney to the Texans in his recent mock draft: "By all indications, Houston taking a quarterback first overall isn’t in the mix, and the Texans are working hard to trade down from the first overall pick....

How A S Manager Bob Melvin Laid Groundwork For Another Second Half Surge

“Let’s go, Curacao,” Australia native Hendriks shouted, missing the mark on the island nation’s pronunciation but doing his best to support Profar, who played for Curacao as a child and whose youngest brother, Jurdrick, is now a star player. Moments later, Soria, from Mexico, and Petit, from Venezuela, ribbed the unrefined body movements of Curacao’s catcher, mimicking the youngster’s exaggerated pitch-framing style. Their friendly mockery turned to celebration when the club clinched a 5-3 win over South Korea....

How Brothers Equanimeous Amon Ra St. Brown Reached The Nfl From Bodybuilding Family

That said, the St. Browns are a unique brother-brother pair. First of all, they both play in the NFC North. Equanimeous, the oldest of the three St. Brown brothers, plays for the Bears. Amon-Ra, the youngest, plays for the Lions. The fact that that duo squares off in divisional battles is cool, but even that’s not the best fact about them. It’s their roots. The St. Browns come from a bodybuilding family and their father, John Brown, has worked to keep them in shape throughout their lives to reach the NFL....

How Carrier Dome Maintenance Crews Are Preventing A Roof Collapse

In fact, Carrier Dome employees have been working feverishly -- literally -- to keep the Carrier Dome's roof from collapsing. They do that by cranking the building's heat up to 90 degrees when fans aren't around. Syracuse's women's basketball team played on Thursday night right before winter storm Pax dropped seven inches of snow on the arena's 6.5 acre roof. The inside temperature was slightly higher than normal, in the mid-to-high 70s....

It’s certainly a positive sign.” Tippett said there is no timetable in place for Doan’s return. “We’re in uncharted waters here,” Tippett said when asked when he thinks Doan could return. “Hopefully soon.” Doan has 23 points in 27 games but hasn't played since Dec....

How Diego Costa S Dream Return To Atletico Madrid Has Turned Into A Nightmare

But as his painful drought continues the question must be raised: just what is going wrong for the Atletico Madrid favourite? Costa made an instant impact at the Wanda Metropolitana at the start of 2018, as he sealed a move away from Chelsea amid a brutal falling-out with former boss Antonio Conte. Atletico’s decision to bring him back to the club where he starred prior to that move to Stamford Bridge appeared a masterstroke....

How Earth Might Be Saved If An Asteroid Was Headed Straight For Us

This isn’t the only method suggested for the diversion of an asteroid, however. Space agencies have a range of potential diversion methods from the seemingly obvious, like blasting an asteroid with a nuclear missile, to obscure ideas like painting its flank. Professor Bong Wie, director of the Asteroid Defense Research Collaboration at Iowa State University, told Newsweek two things are key to the success of such missions: “The warning time or mission lead time, as well as the asteroid size, plays the most crucial role in asteroid diversion....

Following announcements that the U.S. and Germany would send 31 M1 Abrams tanks and 14 Leopard 2 main battle tanks, an advisor to Ukraine’s defense minister, Oleksiy Reznikov, said that securing the fighter jets would be the “next big hurdle” for Kyiv. Yuriy Sak emphasized that Ukraine was hoping next for the fourth generation of military jets, which includes the F-16 multirole fighter jet. “If we get them, the advantages on the battlefield will be just immense,” he told Reuters....

How Good Can The Browns Be With Jacoby Brissett As Starting Qb Outlook For Cleveland After Deshaun Watson Suspension

That ostensibly lines up his debut with against Browns division rival Baltimore on Oct. 23. In Watson’s absence, the Browns will be helmed by journeyman backup Jacoby Brissett, who is no stranger to starting games in the stead of starters. Indeed, he started an entire season for the Colts after the abrupt retirement of Andrew Luck left Indianapolis scrambling, posting a 7-8 record in 15 games. He also started for Luck in 2017 when the former Colts QB missed a season with a shoulder injury....

How Kate Middleton S New Uniform Takes Style Cues From Hillary Clinton

Aside from a new title, Kate has started 2023 with a new core work project advancing public understanding of the importance of early years childhood development. At a recent event promoting this project, titled “Shaping Us,” the princess wore a striking red pantsuit, an accessory that has become a favorite fashion staple of the royal’s working wardrobe. Kate’s new pantsuit uniform allies her to another notable female public figure, and perhaps unlikely style muse, Hillary Clinton, who adopted the use of pantsuits in the 1990s as an “anti-distraction technique,” to keep the focus on what she was saying, rather than what she was wearing....
