Graham touted his membership in the bipartisan Climate Solutions Caucus while warning that going “down the AOC road” could “destroy the economy” during a final debate with Harrison on Friday. In a tweet responding to a video of Graham’s remarks, Ocasio-Cortez declined to directly address the senator’s “climate denialism” while launching a blistering attack on what she believes is his lack of character. “@LindseyGrahamSC I’m not sure you believe in anything except preserving yourself,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted....

Having lost four of their past five, including two at home, the Blue Devils fell from No. 24 to receiving just six points in the “others receiving votes” category. It’s the first time since the preseason rankings of 2007-08 that Mike Krzyzewski’s squad hasn’t been ranked. SN EXCLUSIVE: Big 12 will talk expansion this week Despite having to rally Saturday to avoid an upset against unranked LSU, Oklahoma remained No....

Before prescribing Arava, your healthcare provider will weigh the potential benefits against the risks. First approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1998, the drug now carries black-box warnings from the FDA for potential life-threatening liver disease and fetal harm. Uses Arava is used for moderate to severe cases of RA to tamp down inflammation associated with the disease. An isoxazole immunomodulatory agent, Arava inhibits dihydroorotate dehydrogenase, an enzyme involved in the excessive immune response that spurs inflammation in RA....

Until three months ago, that is, when authorities nabbed a grave robber who had broken through the wall of a crypt in Akhmim’s cemetery. They recovered the head of a large Ramses statue and notified Zahi Hawass, the head of Egypt’s powerful antiquities department. Hawass’s exploratory excavation established that this was, indeed, the site of the famous temple. Next year he plans to begin exhuming and moving thousands of graves to get at the temple, whose size can only be guessed at from the distance between where Meritamon’s statue was found and the Ramses head: 492 feet....

However, one man has found success on the app with a very different tactic; by using it to share his stellar archery skills. Josh O’Dell, known as Arrow_sniper, has amassed more than 1.7 million followers and 38.1 million likes on videos of him using a bow and arrow to shoot miniscule items out the air—and the internet is very impressed. In one video, posted on April 24, the professional archer and custom bow maker manages to shoot his arrow through a water droplet, after being challenged by a follower....

The package contains roughly $40 billion in emergency aid for communities recovering from disasters, financial assistance to Ukraine and provisions designed to make retirement easier. However, the bill is missing one key element many had hoped would be included: a child tax credit (CTC) expansion. Democrats pushed for the COVID-era CTC expansion, which would give eligible recipients $3,000 per child over the age of 6 and $3,600 per child under the age of 6....

While Memorial Day became an official federal holiday in 1971, Americans have been paying tribute to military members who died in service since the late 1860s, following the Civil War in which ended in spring 1865. On Memorial Day, The National Moment of Remembrance will take place a 3 p.m. local time, and Americans are asked to pause for a minute to remember those who died in service. Are banks open on Memorial Day?...

Uses Cortisone can be used for a variety of orthopedic and rheumatological problems. The medication works by decreasing inflammation. Anti-inflammatory medications can be taken orally, but doing so distributes the medication in very small doses throughout the entire body. A cortisone injection, on the other hand, places a large, powerful dose directly at the location of the inflammation. Therefore, the medication acts very powerfully against the problem. Furthermore, systemic side effects of a local cortisone injection are uncommon....

First-ever green card awarded in Italy Chelsea has been good, but not great, under its new manager, who is trying to haul his side into Champions League contention after an abysmal 10th-place finish last season. However, despite the Blues remaining in the EFL Cup and only being three points off fourth place, they were heavily criticized after defeats by Liverpool and Arsenal left them with question marks over a suspect defence who were conceding too many goals....

That’s the danger that best-selling author and futurist Rob Reid predicts could arise from the field of synthetic biology, which combines biology and engineering to create artificial biological systems, from genetically-modified crops to custom viruses. Synthetic biologists have been modifying the DNA of pathogens with alarming speed and efficacy over the last decade, Reid notes, opening up a new frontier in virology, public health and global security. “I’m a big SynBio fan,” says Reid, who believes in the promising applications of DNA modification, such as solutions for climate change and breakthroughs in life extension....

Before she walked away forever on the Netflix reality show, Jessica told Mark that she loves him and that he will “always have a special place” in her heart. But the finale episode didn’t show a final conversation between the two, just the pair going home in separate cars. Jessica and Mark were one couple among many who had the opportunity to get engaged before ever seeing each other in person....

Yesterday the National Association of Home Builders reported handing over just 774,000 sets of new house keys in 2007, a 26 percent drop from 2006, which is the biggest decrease in at least four decades. Forecasters see the continuing weak sales and high inventory as signs that the market for residential real estate is unlikely to turn around soon. Next week a Congressional committee will question Countrywide CEO Angelo Mozilo, whom the New York Post has called “the public face of the subprime mortgage mess....

Given many have a day off on September 6, it would make sense to also enjoy some leisure activities with those closest to us, like seeing the latest blockbuster at the movie theater. However, with many stores closed due to the celebrations, movie fans will have to make sure their local multiplex is open and still showing films. Luckily, most movie theaters are open on Labor Day, and given the new releases coming out they will likely be busy places....

The lawsuit says Mars has failed to disclose the health risks of titanium dioxide, a compound used as a brightening agent in Skittles. Titanium oxide is what makes Skittles shiny. It has the same effect on paint. Naturally, candy lovers and parents of candy-loving children are now in a tizzy over these allegations. Is our beloved rainbow-colored candy truly toxic and unsafe for human consumption? Or is the level of titanium dioxide negligible and not something to worry about?...

The suit filed in October said that the “Whole Grain Frosted Strawberry Toaster Pastries” packaging shows strawberries in words and depicts the product’s “bright red filling, matching the color of strawberries.” “The strawberry representations are misleading because the Product has less strawberries than consumers expect based on the labeling,” the suit alleged. According to the ingredient list on the box, this particular Pop-Tart contains 2% or less of dried strawberries....

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act deferred certain student loan payments and interest until September 30. After Democrats and the White House were unable to reach an agreement by the self-imposed Friday deadline, Trump signed four executive orders, among them an extension for student loan deferment. Deferments only apply to people with federal loans held by the Department of Education, according to the memorandum, but it’s not required....

The evidence linking vitamins to better health is considerable. No one denies that folic acid (one of the B vitamins) can help prevent birth defects. And epidemiologic studies, which track broad patterns of diet and disease in the population, suggest that vitamin C can reduce the risk of mouth, throat and stomach cancers, that vitamin D may help prevent breast, bowel and prostate cancers, and that vitamin E can reduce the risk of heart disease....

I wish I could laugh. But I, too, like many Japanese, have slipped into “premium program” slavery. Retail stores and services now routinely offer a small gift, discount or store credit in exchange for points tallied on wallet-size cards. In fact, you can’t buy a carton of milk or fill up your gas tank these days without gaining points of one sort or another. In addition to regular shopping points, one supermarket gives me an eco-stamp when I bring my own shopping bag....

DAVID ROBERTSON: @Yankees, the official Twitter account of the 27-time world champions, has had four tweets this week. One was the news that Robinson Cano, Curtis Granderson, and Hiroki Kuroda declined their qualifying offers and are full-on free agents now. One was a retweet of an MLB contest to win a CC Sabathia autographed baseball. One was a chance to meet Mariano Rivera. Then there was this: " ‘I’m not sure if Robertson is capable yet....
