Emhoff’s presence appears to have once again garnered outsized attention — this time from conservative voices like Charlie Kirk and right-wing social media accounts who shared her photo and called her a “freak.” Body.Alexis Coe, a presidential historian and author of George Washington’s biography “Never Forget Firsts,” said, quoting Chelsea Clinton, “I don’t think Democrats are going to put a child in the White House, especially a daughter.” “When I gave birth, I saw brutal attacks from the right.” And the Obamas.Ms. Emhoff said her tattoos and body hair are somewhat unusual in the modeling world, and does not meet…

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown continues to earn a significant amount of work alongside Zack Moss. Could he immediately take over the backfield as the team’s true RB1?

It feels like there are more elite quarterbacks and wide receivers than ever before, while the number of consistent, reliable running backs is decreasing. This makes it all the more important to find value in running backs in fantasy football. To help with that, I’ll be taking a weekly look at backfields that are gaining attention based on recent…

In 2022, the Indiana Pacers and Sacramento Kings have negotiated a blockbuster deal that will drastically change the trajectory of both teams. The deal helped the Pacers reach the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time since 2014, and the Kings ended their infamous 16-year playoff drought. Six players were involved in the deal, but the two who played the biggest roles (so far) were Tyrese Haliburton and Domantas Sabonis. Since their signing, both have enjoyed great success. But like it or not, the two will remain connected for the rest of their careers. Ironically, more positive news came Tuesday…

Tech giants drive market sentiment Tech companies’ earnings have been in the spotlight this week, with Alphabet’s strong quarterly results providing a positive tone. Google’s parent company reported better-than-expected profits, driven by strong revenue from its cloud division, sending its stock up more than 5% in after-hours trading. But not all tech stocks were so lucky. AMD’s stock price fell 8% in the pre-market session after the company’s fourth-quarter revenue forecast was lower than expected, which also weighed on the overall semiconductor sector. The divergence highlights the market’s selective reaction to technology earnings, with focus shifting to upcoming reports from…

It wasn’t the part of her closing message that drew the most headlines, but during her remarks at the Ellipse, Vice President Kamala Harris took time to talk about health care policy.“If Donald Trump finally gets his way and repeals the Affordable Care Act, you will end up paying even more money. “It would take us back to the days when there were exemptions from health insurance and insurance companies had the power to deny health insurance to people with pre-existing conditions,” the Democratic candidate said. “Well, I’m not going back.”These were not scare tactics. Rather, it was a final…

H5N1 avian influenza is circulating. It is moving from animals to humans in a way that has never been seen before. It is spreading to new species and new locations, and this spread is happening largely unnoticed.So far, 34 cases have been reported in six U.S. states: California, Colorado, Michigan, Missouri, Texas, and Washington. These are just the cases known to health authorities. Not all states test people or animals. Tests for the virus are flawed and in short supply.Most health officials say they are not too worried at this point because H5N1 influenza is very rare in humans compared…

Written by Billy Lineberry Anirudh Mepperla knows that as a college student, sometimes you need a place to relax during a day full of classes and work. This month, in collaboration with one of his professors, Meppella’s efforts culminated in the installation of four nap pods on campus. One was installed in the Commons and three were installed on the fifth floor of Grace E. Harris Hall.
