The jackpot had not been won since September 16, making it the longest jackpot run in Powerball history, as Wednesday night was the 36th drawing since the previous jackpot had been won....

A large tornado hit near Highway 159 just south of Winterset, Iowa, where a gas leak was reported afterward. Another tornado was reported just south of Norwalk, which is an outlying suburb of Des Moines. All air traffic was suspended in the area, and a tornado warning had been issued for Des Moines.

The committee of 100 was formed just over a decade ago by architect I.M. Pei, Yo-Yo Ma, Shirley Young and a few dozen other notable Chinese-Americans; over the years it has grown to a bit over one hundred members, all variously distinguished in their fields and committed to improving Sino-US relations. The conference topics ranged from culture to geopolitics-but much of the focus was on business and technology. That’s not surprising: In the midst of the US and European slowdown, you can’t attend a business gathering these days without hearing about the importance of the Chinese market, especially in high technology....

Preauricular Pit Symptoms A preauricular pit or opening is the beginning of a sinus tract that weaves itself underneath the skin of the ear. Sometimes the tract is short and other times it can be long with multiple branches coming off and zigzagging throughout the ear tissue. It may appear only on one side or on both. While this sinus tract and pit are not supposed to be there (it’s a congenital defect), the good news is that in most instances, the pit is benign (harmless), isn’t associated with other medical issues, and is generally not something to worry about....

The world has become increasingly crowded, interconnected and interactive, accelerating the impact of events (e.g., pandemics and climate events) in one region or sector on other regions and sectors. While global crisis events cut across regions and sectors without regard for boundaries, the data needed for cross-sector analysis to anticipate events and provide decision-makers with the time and intelligence needed to plan effectively has remained largely siloed. From 1950 to 2020, the world population increased by 300% from 2....

Sereinat’e Henderson was driving in a car with her baby son, her mother and her siblings just before 7 p.m. on Wednesday at Prince Street near Ellis Street, her family told local media outlets.

A blood pressure reading includes systolic pressure and diastolic pressure levels. The American Heart Association (AHA) defines normal blood pressure as a reading below 120/80 mm Hg for adults. With high blood pressure, the systolic pressure is 130 or higher, or diastolic pressure is 80 or higher. Blood pressure readings for prehypertension occur between normal and high blood pressure levels. This stage, which the AHA defines as “elevated” blood pressure, includes systolic readings between 120-129 and diastolic levels less than 80....

He’s BACK! Pogba delivers on the big stage Limited opportunities for local footballers has been a gripe among several supporters in England for years and it appears as though little is about to change any time soon. Figures from CIES Football Observatory have revealed that just four Premier League teams have used homegrown players in more than 50 percent of their minutes so far this season. Bournemouth leads the way on 81 percent, while Burnley (62 percent), Crystal Palace (53 percent) and Everton (52 percent) follow behind....

After narrowing his list to four schools last week, St. Louis Eagles wing forward Jayson Tatum had an extremely successful weekend in Hampton.

When the dust settled, he finished his stop in Hampton with averages of 20....

Some schools are still requiring masks, others are requiring vaccines for those who are eligible, and yet others are continuing to provide at-home or hybrid options for families.

The song belongs to a musical sub-genre—practically a cannon—of mournful mash notes to the city. Others would include Fats Domino’s “Walking to New Orleans,” “It’s Raining,” by Irma Thomas," and “Louisiana” by Randy Newman. Even before Katrina hit, it was impossible to separate New Orleans from its rich, and utterly unique, cultural heritage: birthplace of jazz, the French Quarter, Creole cooking, second line funereal marches , Mardi Gras. Without the music or the gumbo there can be no New Orleans....

The MoveOn petition, launched by Elizabeth Rowin in October, had 385,547 signatures—just 14,453 signatures away from its 400,000 goal—at press time on Saturday. Originally Rowin was seeking just 75,000 signatures. However, social media solidarity has helped the petition receive signatures far beyond her initial goal as people all across the country have encouraged others to sign by sharing the trending hashtag #ObamaAve. Over the weekend, dozens of people took to the platform to suggest Obama’s many accomplishments as commander-in-chief were more than enough reasons to honor him with a street in the Big Apple....

Obama attended Tuesday’s NBA season-opener between the Chicago Bulls and Cleveland Cavaliers, and he did so not only as the chief executive, but also as a Bulls fan.
