As a longtime supporter of Verywell’s work, I am honored to now serve as Chief Medical Officer of Verywell Health. I’m a board-certified OB-GYN. I’m also a mother. And like many of you, over the past year, I experienced a renewed need for approachable health information as we all struggled to understand COVID-19 and its impact on our lives. My role as a physician is to educate patients on how to address their overall health....

One major point of dispute between the two mayors is that a longtime forensic engineer who was hired by Surfside town officials may be considered a suspect during the initial investigation into the cause of the Champlain Towers South collapse. Engineers and government officials from the offices of Surfside Mayor Charles Burkett and Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava have accused the other of blocking investigators from accessing the site of the 12-floor collapse which left 98 people dead on June 24....

“The president kept firing her and she wouldn’t leave,” Parnas said, “so nobody could understand what was going on. He fired her to my knowledge at least four or five times. He even had a breakdown and screamed, ‘Fire her’ to Madeleine [Westerhout], his assistant or secretary before he fired her. And she said, ‘Mr. President, I can’t do that.’” Parnas said he spoke directly with Trump about the firing of Yovanovitch, including one time during a dinner at the Trump Hotel....

Calhanoglu scored twice in the victory to move Leverkusen up to eighth in the table as the Bundesliga season resumed after the mid-season break. VIDEO: Rod Stewarts performance at Scottish Cup draw He joined up with his Turkish team-mate to celebrate his goals and pay tribute to compatriot Nusret Gokce, the chef who has become a viral sensation known as ‘Salt Bae’ after a video of him sprinkling salt onto a steak became an online hit....

Suddenly, though, the future happened —or, depending on how you look at it, the future never got to happen. A Vancouver firm called Communicate.com approached the U.K.-born Taggar and his partners about buying the start-up and hiring them to revamp the combined companies. (Communicate’s business was making money from the traffic that came from owning prime domain names like perfume.com.) Instantly the dreams of evolving the Auctomatic concept were supplanted by a chance to help out with someone else’s dream—and becoming mildly rich in the process....

But not just the regular versions of themselves, oh no, 99-rated versions of themselves - and the non-Bayern players they’ve chosen have far from evened things out for budding contenders. See the fab four in their element in the video below: Lionel Messi on the left wing seems an odd choice but, let’s face it, the Argentine would probably still be banging them in if you started him at left-back....

The 19-year-old Thompson closed with a bogey-free 4-under 68 at Mission Hills for a three-stroke victory over Wie. Thompson birdied four of the first nine holes to open a five-stroke lead and parred the final nine. Wie birdied the final hole for a 71. She used her driver only four times, choosing to hit fairway-metal stingers on the other 10 driving holes — leaving her as much as 60 yards behind Thompson....

This can occur with a number of neurological conditions, and while it is most closely associated with multiple sclerosis (MS), you may experience Lhermitte’s sign if you have any problem that affects your cervical (upper) spine. Despite being called “Lhermitte’s sign,” the first people who described this phenomenon were Pierre Marie and Chatelin in 1917. Jean Lhermitte was a French neurologist who published an article on the subject in 1924, which led to wider knowledge about the symptom....

The deal allows Ball to become eligible for the G League Draft – set for Saturday, Oct. 23 – where he can be selected by any affiliate NBA team. Ball’s contract with the NBA G League comes on the heels of a decent showing at the 2021 Las Vegas Summer League, where he averaged 9.6 points over five games while shooting 34.5 percent from 3. He scored double figures in each of his first two games, including a 16-point debut while going 5-for-8 from long range against the Portland Trail Blazers....

While Lt. Gen. Lee Levy was described by witnesses as “self-confident, passionate and charming,” others outlined a culture of fear and intimidation that Levy created in the workplace, according to a March 2019 report discovered by the Times. This included leadership which “repeatedly, publicly and personally belittled and berated” his team and inappropriate comments directed at a female airman’s weight and eating habits. Levy disagreed with the allegations and characterizations against him in the report through a statement provided to the Times by his attorney, Richard Stevens....

I expected my neighbors to be politicians, CEOs, and celebrities. Turned out they were salarymen like me, families and old people. No computer or cell phone junkies. I commute in peace on an ice train; I get off in a hot IT town, where I put on a badge that automatically flashes a mosaic pattern to mess up digital snapshots. My company may soon divide offices into hot space and ice space....

Three days after the last regular season match, the quarterfinals begin, and the weekday-weekend pattern continues for three weeks until a champion is decided. Or at least, that’s usually how it works. READ MORE: America to face Tigres in Liga MX final This year, there’s a wrinkle Club America has made the final thanks to a 3-1 aggregate win over Necaxa. Club America also has made the Club World Cup thanks to its 2015-16 CONCACAF Champions League crown....

Spending a long time in front of a computer screen is specifically associated with migraines and, interestingly, not with other types of headaches.

That’s the Rangers’ record in the ultimate deciding game of any Stanley Cup playoffs series. It pairs with this one: 6-0. That’s Henrik Lundqvist’s record in Game 7s. And this one: 0.97 goals-against average, in that Lundqvist hasn’t allowed more than one goal in any of those six games.

The opponent in that series? The Lightning, who defeated the Rangers in seven games to reach the franchise’s second Stanley Cup Final. The Lightning have had arguably the most impressive showing in any series thus far, sweeping the Presidents’ Trophy-winning Panthers....

Those who were not alive in 1980 to see a rookie Magic Johnson transform himself from point guard to center, subbing for an injured Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and slapping 42 points and 15 rebounds on the Sixers in a Game 6 clincher — they’ll have this Giannis masterpiece. They’ll have been watching at home on television, or in a bar or on the lawn outside the Fiserv Forum or, for the fortunate few, in the arena....

The term refers to the word “nepotism,” which means “favoritism (as in appointment to a job) based on kinship,” as defined by Merriam-Webster. Many famous people whose parents are in Hollywood have been accused of nepotism over the years, and many more have spoken out about the challenges they’ve faced despite being born into privilege, including Ireland Baldwin, Kendall Jenner, Lily Collins and others. On Wednesday, Elle published an interview with Lily-Rose, in which the 23-year-old model and actor discussed being raised in the spotlight....

The clip, captioned “Evil is real. And it lives in Jared Kushner,” was posted on the same day that the Republican National Convention (RNC) is set to start in North Carolina. “Evil is real. We ignore it when it seems educated, polite, superficially charming, even sophisticated. We trivialize it, ignore it, and when we do it grows,” the narrator says as the video begins. Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, is criticized for his role in the White House planning meetings back in March on the response to the coronavirus pandemic....

The political action committee of Republicans who oppose Trump claimed that the ad, which was released on December 8, was getting under Trump’s skin. The Lincoln Project shared the video and tweeted that “this is the ad that has @realDonaldTrump turning on @VP @Mike_Pence. It would be a real shame if he had to see this over and over and over again…” The 39-second video starts with a stern voiced narrator saying: “The end is coming Donald, even Mike Pence knows....
