Clearly, if a conscientious shopper like Jakubowski could have been bamboozled by a food label, what’s happening to the rest of us? More than a third of all the new products introduced last year carried some kind of health-related buzzword or claim on the label-lite, 30 percent less fat and others-with no indications as to what those words really mean. No wonder Health and Human Services Secretary Louis Sullivan called the supermarket a “Tower of Babel....

While insisting that Jason Kidd would be on the staff with whichever head coach was brought on was weird in and of itself, this new rumor may be even more unusual. According to a report from Newsday, which cites a person familiar with the Lakers’ process, Los Angeles hired Kidd with the hopes of attracting Giannis Antetokounmpo when he hits free agency in 2021. This report has a lot of intrigue to it, including the fact that LeBron James could leave the Lakers after the 2021 season as well, but as it says, it really is just speculation at this point and something for two years down the road anyway....

The ruling is in response to a woman who filed a lawsuit after being evicted, saying the owner of the apartment changed the locks and instead of letting her take her property and valuables, like a computer used for her job as a paralegal, and family keepsakes, the landlord threw most of her things in the trash. U.S. District Judge Michael P. Mills issued the order Tuesday, saying the “unpredictable and absurd” law is harsher than any other eviction law in the country....

The researchers behind the study hope the findings will put an end to the notion that ivermectin could ever be an effective COVID-19 treatment, encouraging people to turn to prevention and treatment methods that are safe, proven, and authorized instead. But they know they can’t change everyone’s minds. “Our clinical trial is the largest one yet of ivermectin for the early treatment of COVID. It did not show a statistically significant benefit,” Edward Mills, PhD, study author and a professor at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, told Verywell....

Seattle is laying the largest point spread of next weekend’s divisional round, so – on paper at least – has the easiest path to the conference championships.

Stephen Paddock opened fire into a crowd of 22,000 country music fans from a hotel room at the the Mandalay Bay casino hotel in Las Vegas in 2017 and later took his own life before police could arrest him. Five years on from the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history, many believe there are still questions to be answered about the shooter’s motive and the police response. The shooting led to a federal ban on bump stocks, which the shooter had used, which is still subject to legal challenges....

In contrast to the common belief that surviving for five years after cancer treatment is equivalent to a cure, with hormone-sensitive (estrogen and/or progesterone receptor-positive) breast tumors there is a steady rate of recurrence risk for at least 20 years after the original diagnosis, even with very small node-negative tumors. An awareness of the risk of late recurrence is important for a number of reasons. People are often shocked to learn that their breast cancer has come back after say, 15 years, and loved ones who don’t understand this risk are often less likely to be supportive as you cope with the fear of recurrence....
