Roughly nine million Americans report Polish ancestry, close to 3% of the population, and the map shows how tightly that is packed into the industrial belt that recruited them, running from Chicago and Milwaukee through Detroit and Cleveland to Buffalo and the mill towns of
Many of you have seen The Odyssey or are about to watch The Odyssey, and if you’re familiar with the tale, you know Penelope’s weaving - and her unweaving - of a burial shroud are key parts of the story. I’ve known this epic since I was a child, and I’ve always wondered...
they lure you in with the beautiful neogothic buildings and then when you actually get your timetable it turns out you’re gonna be seeing a lot more of this guy
Look, I'm not an oncologist but I am frustrated by the way this dog cancer story is being interpreted from a bunch of different angles and I think basically all of this can be cleared up if people understood like...six things.

Statement from Sen. Fetterman’s Spokesperson:
“During an early morning walk, Senator Fetterman sustained a fall near his home in Braddock.
Out of an abundance of caution, he was transported to a hospital in Pittsburgh.
Upon evaluation, it was established he had a ventricular fibrillation flare-up that led to Senator Fetterman feeling light-headed, falling to the ground and hitting his face with minor injuries.

He is doing well and receiving routine observation at the hospital. He has opted to stay so doctors can fine-tune his medication regimen.

The medical term for this is a panic attack.
