Take, for example, the longtime reliance of Hollywood on the movie junket. Some years ago, I watched Tom Hanks move from table to table at once of those affairs, answering the same couple of dumb questions literally scores of times. His smile never cracked for a second but, as those things piled up over a lifetime, it must have sucked away a part of his soul. On another occasion, at the peak of the fame of “The Sopranos,” I watched Lorraine Bracco do a series of TV interviews in Florida, answering repeated questions about her own mental health and experience with psychologists, for goodness sake.
Herbstreit, 51, tweeted on Dec. 29 that he tested positive for the coronavirus earlier that week. Despite him contracting the virus, he contributed to the network’s “College GameDay” and called the Ohio State-Clemson College Football Playoff semifinal from his home on New Year’s Day.
Chenetta Ray, a warehouse worker at a recycling company, who has cancer, prepares dinner with her daughter at home in Houston, May 28, 2021. Ray had an unforgiving budget even before business closures reduced trash collection and cut her hours by a third — the stimulus checks helped her afford to treat her cancer.

Theodore Hilk, 30, was found in his seventh-floor apartment, at 240 E. Illinois St., March 24, after a relative — unable to reach Hilk for several days — called police to request a well-being check, Chicago police said at the time. A death investigation was launched to determine how the Massachusetts Institute of Technology graduate had died, but initial autopsy results were inconclusive, the medical examiner’s office said.
Maybe instead of whining about Osaka’s privilege (But she’s rich!) or clinging to custom (But the rules!), fans could view her decision as groundbreaking — an attempt to propel the sport into a better, more inclusive future, not unlike King defeating Bobby Riggs in 1973′s Battle of the Sexes.

As part of the effort to drive Americans to get shots, the White House is borrowing some tools from political campaigns, including phone banks, door-knocking and text banking. The administration says more than 1,000 such events will be held this coming weekend alone. Additionally, it is organizing competitions between cities and colleges to drive up vaccination rates.
“I think that will shed the light most prominently on the issue here for us,” Brewster told the Associated Press by phone. “The whole basis for listing betamethasone is because it’s injected into a joint and they want you not to inject the joints too close to the race, so the whole substantive basis is out the window if it’s a salve, and it can be proven scientifically and empirically to be the salve.”
“Virtually all of the Chicagoland area is running a precipitation deficit for the calendar year, and most of that deficit has come in the past 90 days. The deficits are much worse in the northern half of the area. For example, stations in Elgin, Mundelein and Barrington are running 8- to 9-inch deficits since Jan. 1, but around 90% of that deficit (7 to 8 inches) is only in the last 90 days.” Trent Ford, Illinois state climatologist
