And those who do may have “normal” findings on diagnostic tests, further complicating matters.

Tests are only part of making an asthma diagnosis. Your healthcare provider will not only ask about your asthma symptoms (wheezing, chest tightness, shortness of breath, and cough) but also about your family history, personal history and perform a physical exam. Symptoms such as decreased exercise capacity or a night time cough are common among asthmatics. Likewise, symptoms are more likely to be asthma if they occur after exposure to furry pets, after exposure to high pollen levels, or exposure to dust and molds....

But the Hall of Fame linebacker — arguably the best to ever play the game — is still as much a part of football in Chicago than he ever was. Butkus’ retired jersey number, 51, marks how many years it’s been since the draft was held in Chicago before this weekend. And in addition to having the honor of announcing the Bears’ pick during Friday night’s second round of the 2015 draft, he’s returned to acting with Kristin Cavallari — the wife of the Bears starting quarterback Jay Cutler — as his co-star in a new commercial....
Speaking at Beloit College in Wisconsin Thursday night, Cheney answered a student’s question about whether he thought media portrayals would impact his legacy. The former vice president explained that he never saw the movie “Vice,” a biographical comedy-drama focused on his work in Washington, D.C., but added that he got a glimpse into the film from his granddaughter. When he asked the 18-year-old what she thought of the film, Cheney said his granddaughter responded, “Well it says you’re a real badass and that’s cool,” the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported....
The alleged plot never got past the talking stage, and probably never would have. And it would be a mistake for the public to worry too much about every loser and lunatic who talks of terrorism. But the dialogue between the suspect and the undercover cop recording it is riveting. It suggests, among other things, the way publicity about terrorist tactics and methodology can creep into the more conventional criminal culture of the United States....
On Saturday, craving a little miso myself, and figuring I could be as daring as the clerks and shoppers in the usual lunch crowd, I went to Itsu. But by then the door was locked and a scrawled sign was posted where the menu used to be: “As a result of the Russia/KGB business, we are temporarily closed while Scotland Yard investigate. Sorry!!” Litvinenko had died. The poison used on him was determined, at last, to be the radioactive isotope polonium 210....

Aboard the planes there were some 50 migrants, including children, mostly from Venezuela. DeSantis said the plane were part of his program to send “illegal migrants” to progressive states, in protest of Biden administration’s liberal immigration policies.

The Left quickly began using the tragedy as an excuse to take revenge on its political enemies for daring to support President Trump and his policies. At the top of the list is the Left’s favorite whipping boy: evangelical Christians. Never-Trumpers predictably and enthusiastically joined the Left and other media elites who piously blame all the rubes who eat at Olive Garden for falling for Donald Trump’s rhetoric. Washington Post contributor and former George W....
The highly-anticipated - and much-delayed - movie is based on a novel by Joyce Carol Oates and contains fictionalized versions of events from Monroe’s life. Blonde explores Monroe’s marriage to Arthur Miller but also reimagines some other romantic connections, including those with Charlie Chaplin’s son, Charlie “Cass” Chaplin Jr., and actor Edward G. Robinson’s son, Eddy Robinson, Jr. While Blonde’s director, Andrew Dominik, has recently described the movie as “all fiction,” fans are still curious as to what the truth is about Monroe and Chaplin Jr....

It’s just them and the referee. The crowd noise becomes erratic and hysterical, the anticipation of the first bell is at once suffocating and completely exhilarating.

He was traded two years later to the NFL abyss in Cleveland, where he was eventually cut....
A trend is currently circulating on TikTok featuring Olivia Rodrigo’s song, “Happier.” It sees men and women angrily chopping phallic-shaped vegetables, as a symbolic gesture to get back at their ex. Rather than using a standard kitchen knife, the trend, which has amassed more than half a million videos, sees scorned lovers getting creative, using shears, machetes and even graters.
