Swifties are clearly enraged. And so are policymakers. State attorneys general and several members of Congress called out Ticketmaster for exploiting consumers through its position as an effective monopoly. The Justice Department opened an investigation into potential antitrust violations. Even President Joe Biden chimed in, tweeting out a message criticizing the “hidden junk fees” that are tacked onto already pricey tickets. The anger is justified—as is political action. But Ticketmaster isn’t the only company profiting from its outsized market share....

If you or your child has hearing loss, it’s important to consider how to incorporate exercise into your life. What Is Hearing Loss? Normal hearing can discern sounds at least at 25 dB, which is less than a faint whisper.

The renin-angiotensin system, working together with the kidneys, is a vitally important part of the body’s blood pressure regulation system. More specifically, this is done through the classical renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) pathway. Inappropriate activation of the classical pathway can also lead to some harmful effects such as hypertension, which is sustained high blood pressure, and the development of vascular disease. However, the renin-angiotensin system also promotes protective, anti-inflammatory responses through its alternative renin-angiotensin pathway....

Castellanos has established himself as one of the more “unlucky” players in MLB over the past few seasons. It’s not necessarily because of his ability on the field — Castellanos earned his first All-Star nod last year with the Reds — but rather because he just can’t seem to stop disrupting touching moments on broadcasts.

I DON’T MEAN teenagers in a failing urban high school. It’s political parties that have the real problem. In recent weeks, two high-profile politicians have flamed-out spectacularly. Sen. Robert Torricelli’s abrupt withdrawal from his re-election race came soon after Andrew Cuomo quit the New York Democratic gubernatorial primary last month. These dropouts represent a new phenomenon: candidates who fold after reading bad poll results. Far beyond the pyrotechnics of the New Jersey race, this trendlet could transform the way candidates run for office....
The liturgy that gathered and directed our emotions was familiar and color-coded. For funerals, the priest wore black vestments symbolizing death, just as he wore red for feast days of the martyrs and–on ordinary Sundays–green for the hope that all Christians have of life eternal. The music varied, too. Long before I learned a modern language, I knew by heart the somber Latin funeral hymn ““Dies Irae’’ (““Day of Wrath’’)....

At 64, according to the study, she would have an account so large that she’d be penalized with an extra tax....
