Republican Pat Toomey is vacating his seat after two terms. Wealthy and well-connected transplants, as well as Pennsylvanians, are seizing the opportunity in a wide-open race. The primary is May 17. Those running for the seat include Bochetto and Bartos, as well as Dr. Mehmet Oz, Carla Sands and David McCormick. The only candidates who are from Pennsylvania are Bochetto and Bartos. Bartos, the party’s 2018 nominee for lieutenant governor, said it is important the people running for Pennsylvania to be from the state and has raised the issue multiple times, including during a Monday night phone call to town hall....

Oz blasted Fetterman, who is notable among high-profile politicians for nearly always wearing casual clothing during public appearances, for rejecting anything “traditional” during a recent episode of the conservative Ruthless podcast. After one of the podcast’s hosts denounced Fetterman for “stumbling around outside in a hoodie and gym shorts,” Oz speculated that his rival’s choice of clothing included a hidden “deeper message.” The Trump-endorsed celebrity doctor said that he found Fetterman’s “costume” to be “an interesting phenomena” and suggested that it was evidence the Democrat wants to “bust America....

While Oz said that he would back the full Republican ticket in the upcoming elections, Toomey did not commit to supporting Republican gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano, according to Politico reporter Holly Otterbein, who attended the conference. Mastriano has pushed Donald Trump’s unproven claims of election fraud, the Associated Press reported, and has received a coveted endorsement from the former president. Toomey, who is not seeking reelection, was one of a handful of GOP senators who voted to convict Trump on an article of impeachment following the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot....

But Yao didn’t even make it to Indianapolis. Two weeks ago the Chinese authorities barred him from going, telling him that he needed to rest up for the grueling two-a-day Olympic workouts that begin this week. “He is a member of the national team, so he has to obey its decisions, without any conditions,” said Xu Minfeng, spokesman for the Chinese Basketball Association. Yao, who loses his “junior” status this year, can’t hide his disappointment....

Brees and his wife, Brittany, had sued Vihad Moradi of CJ Charles Jewelers in La Jolla, California, claiming he misled them about the value of $15 million in diamonds they purchased as an investment. Moradi denied the allegations in court. He and Brees had a 15-year business relationship. Attorney Andrew Kim, who co-represented the Breeses, expressed support for the jury’s decision. “It was our position that Mr. Moradi breached his fiduciary duty, and that’s essentially what the jury said,” Kim said (via the San Diego Union-Tribune)....

The Saints quarterback said he hasn’t heard a peep about a contract extension from the organization in three months, ESPN.com reported. MORE: Angry, vengeful quarterbacks in NFL “Not sure why things have not progressed,” Brees said. “They made an offer in March, we made an offer shortly thereafter. And besides the Josh Norman deal, there has been no talk about a contract since.” Before the Redskins signed Norman, the Saints talked to Brees about restructuring his contract to incorporate Norman under their salary cap....

Layne Geerdes, 19, from Grinnell, Iowa, flipped a truck while trying to dodge a deer on June 16. Then he shared a video of him lying on the dashboard of the overturned vehicle, which went viral on his TikTok page with nearly 8 million views. In the footage, Geerdes appears amazed that the radio is still working after the crash. As he sobs into his phone’s camera, he says, “I was wondering if the radio stays on when you get into a car accident … and it does … and it’s just playing Drake....

This article explains factors that affect when you can drive again after certain types of orthopedic surgeries and steps to recovery. It also discusses the role your doctor plays in helping you determine when you’re ready to get behind the wheel....

The headlines in Kosovo today are not very different from those a year ago: murders, abductions, bombings. In this round of atrocities, however, the victims are Serbs and Gypsies (many of whom threw in their lot with Milosevic’s thugs during the war). Brutal killings–like the slaughter of 14 Serb farmers 11 miles southwest of Pristina on July 23–have left most Serbs afraid to wander from their homes. Many cower behind doors barricaded by iron bars, tables and chests....

Ozil refuses to rule out Real Madrid return The Charity Commission confirmed in April that they would launch an investigation after the newspaper claimed that £14,115 of £1.7 million donated to the Didier Drogba Foundation had been used to support causes in Africa. The 38-year-old subsequently issued a strongly worded statement in which he condemned the story, insisting that there had been “no lies”, while threatening legal action. The Charity Commission’s inquiry has now drawn to a close and Drogba, emboldened by the outcome, has taken to Facebook to inform his fans that he will be taking action against the Daily Mail....

It may not be the last. There are no good statistics on pharmacy errors; no state requires routine reporting of these mistakes. But the number of prescriptions dispensed has risen rapidly, from 2 billion in 1992 to 3 billion last year. By 2004, the National Association of Chain Drug Stores predicts, the total will top 4 billion. Even if the error rate simply holds steady at 3 to 5 percent, that translates into more individual mistakes–from trivial slip-ups like typos on a label to potentially serious problems like wrong drugs or wrong doses....

“I run a sports radio station in Spartanburg, and I honestly thought, ‘Oh crap, the station’s on fire.’ I mean, that was the first thought out of my head,” Clary said. FAGAN’S HOOPS ROAD TRIP PREVIEW: Year 9 slate includes four games, at all levels It was actually good news.

Pedroia will miss Sunday night’s clash against the Kansas City Royals and may miss Monday’s game against the Tampa Bay Rays as well. The Red Sox will not make a corresponding roster move to take his place. With a chance to tie the MLB record with 12 consecutive hits Saturday night, Pedroia ultimately grounded into a double-play to finish one hit short. MORE: SN ranks all MLB’s managers, 1-30...

One key issue remains before Tsarnaev's trial: whether the case will be tried in Boston. A June 18 hearing was scheduled Wednesday to determine the venue. The trial date decision came down Wednesday. U.S. District Court Judge George A. O'Toole Jr. scheduled it to start Nov. 3, about 18 months after Tsarnaev and his brother allegedly planted two bombs near the renowned race's finish line on April 15, 2013. "I think it is a realistic and a fair one," O'Toole said....
