As reluctant as I am to join the general scrum that resulted from the president's desultory performance in last Thursday's debate, the shebeen does have certain public responsibilities. However, let me say that rarely has my profession behaved so badly, and rarely has my low opinion of the Democratic party's essential backbone been so thoroughly justified. Exhibit A on Point One: On his way to a fundraiser in the Hamptons, the president was greeted by six people carrying signs urging him to resign. Within minutes, at least five respected members of the political media—and you know who you are—leaped onto the Xwitter machine to share a picture of these pasty jamokes like their presence meant something. |

You have to respect Kevin Costner's loyalty to the old-fashioned western. Since the earliest days of his career in Hollywood, the actor and director has done well by the genre (Silverado, Wyatt Earp, Open Range), and the genre has done well by him in return. But watching Horizon: An American Saga—Chapter 1, the opening installment of a planned four-part cycle, you can't help but wonder if his loyalty has turned into folly. After all, Costner has already sunk $38 million of his own money into the frontier epic. And it's not as if audiences in 2024 are lining up outside multiplexes waving signs for more westerns. If I were his accountant, I'm not sure that I'd advise him to keep plowing ahead with this passion project. While Horizon is, at times, a maddeningly flawed film, I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy it. |

I'm never doing that again. This was the first thought that went through my head as I crossed the finish line of the New York City Marathon, my very first. It was a brisk, sunny day in November 2023, and my skin was encrusted with salt. Muscles felt like old rubber tires. I really wanted a banana. After a few more steps, I was handed a finisher's medal. Some pretzels. Gatorade. No banana, but slowly, I started to feel more human. I was transformed, though. These 26.2 miles were the most I had ever done. The accomplishment started to sink in. Dude, you just ran a MARATHON! My attitude toward running another one began to change. This was one of the good days. Complete strangers would shout my name–in an encouraging manner! How often does that happen in NYC? If I ran a bit easier, next time could be more fun, less suffering. |

Periods are normal, but kids pointing them out in their sketches is something else. Australian woman Penny Rohleder shared a photo of her son's drawing on the Facebook page of blogger Constance Hall on Jul. 25, which well, says it all. SEE ALSO: James Corden tests out gymnastics class for his son and is instantly showed up by children "I don't know whether to be proud or embarrassed that my 5 year old son knows this," Rohleder wrote. "Julian drew a family portrait. I said 'What's that red bit on me?' And he replied, real casual, 'That's your period.'" Well, at least he knows. To give further context, Rohleder revealed she had pulmonary embolism in October 2016, and was put on blood thinning treatment which makes her periods "very, very bad," she explained to the Daily Mail .

For centuries , humans have used fish oils, orally or topically, to treat a wide array of ailments, from aches and pains to rickets and gout. The popularity of this supplement has shifted over the years, as have its primary uses. But over the past couple of decades, the hype around fish oil has arguably reached an all-time high. According to National Institutes of Health statistics , in 2012, at least 18.8 million Americans used about $1.3 billion dollars worth of fish oil, making it the third most widely used supplement in the nation. (Sales reportedly flattened out at about that level around 2013.) Today, many use it because they believe it will broadly help their heart health , but others hold that fish oil can help with renal health, bone, and joint conditions, cognitive functions and mental wellness, and any number of other conditions. But is fish oil really as good for you as millions of Americans believe it is? Who should be taking it and when? We dove into the research and
