Dorian still sits in the western Atlantic Ocean and just east of the Bahamas, where hurricane warnings have already been issued. Forecasters still do not know the true path Dorian will take as it aims for Florida’s eastern coast. The forecast cone reaches from South Florida in Miami northward to Jacksonville and all areas in between. “The biggest concern will be Dorian’s slow motion when it is near Florida, placing some areas of the state at an increasing risk of a prolonged, drawn-out event of strong winds, dangerous storm surge and heavy rainfall,” NHC said, according to the Sun-Sentinel in Ft....

However, the reinvigorated Ian is not expected to bring the same level of destruction as it continues northward....

In a dazzling political gambit last week, Francois Mitterrand sacrificed a knight and promoted a pawn to queen. Cashiering Michel Rocard, his capable but low-key prime minister, France’s president named Edith Cresson-the first woman in French history to get the post. Mitterrand came off looking like a bold reformer, putting an end to the largely token role of women in national polities. And by appointing a tough and outspoken prime minister, the president strengthened his hand in two formidable battles: bolstering France’s competitiveness in preparation for 1992 and giving a face-lift to the Socialist Party’s sagging image before legislative elections in March 1993....

This particular question, posed by a CNN reporter, turns out to be especially pertinent: “What is the medical evidence?” Three days before, on April 3, the publisher of the scientific paper that first brought the drug to the attention of public health experts–and President Trump—cast doubt on the reliability of the original research. “The article does not meet the [publisher’s] expected standard,” said the International Journal of Anti-Microbial Agents in a statement....

When your body needs energy, it releases the triglycerides. Too much cholesterol and triglycerides can contribute to serious health problems, such as heart disease and stroke. When fat builds up in the arteries, which transport blood from the heart to other parts of the body, the arteries become narrow, reducing or blocking blood flow....

And so it began, my lifelong obsession with straight hair. In addition to the daily reminders from Grandma, I had the media to help me along in my self-loathing. The models in fashion magazines all had flowing coiffures that bounced and behaved, not tight, coarse coils like mine. Advertisements targeted at black women promise freedom from the oppression of the hot pressing comb with the use of harsh chemical relaxers....

The blame was put forward when the coach was asked for an update on the fitness of Romanian midfielder Andre Ionescu. “Andre could not train in the last 2-3 weeks due to injury in MPL. I tried to complain and defend our players in MPL. I tried to advise the Mizoram FA and the referees, to protect our players. Aizawl FC represents Mizoram. I advised many times but nobody cares and we don’t have our best players,” accused the coach of the defending I-League champions....

Next in line are Aizawl FC, who are hoping to defend the title under the tutelage of Portuguese tactician Paulo Menezes. Aizawl FC reached the pinnacle of success by clinching the championship in the previous season, a feat even the staunchest of Aizawl supporter would have laughed off at the start of the season. But whenever a new team exceeds the general expectations they are raided by the footballing giants, and Aizawl was no exception....
