The sudden decision to get tough appears to be driven by criticism that capitalist South Korea was tilting toward “socialism.” Roh took office in February as the first president whose inner circle is staffed by the “386 generation”—Koreans in their 30s who were born in the 1960s and grew up amid the massive protests against military rule in the 1980s. Roh himself is a former human-rights lawyer who, before last week, had declined to roll out riot police against strikers, as his predecessors did....

Some people will have to work on Christmas Eve and Day and will be grateful to have a caffeine fix within easy reach. Others might want an excuse to stretch their legs and go out to buy an eggnog latte. Many coffee stores and fast-food restaurants are closed for Christmas, as it is a federal holiday, but fortunately for some, Starbucks will remain open. Select Starbucks will be open on Christmas Eve and Day, but not every café....

Get PSG’s Ligue 1 title odds In the second half of the quarterfinal match between the U.S. and El Salvador, Henry Romero was matched up against U.S. striker Jozy Altidore on a set piece. While the two were grouped together, Romero twisted the nipple of Altidore, sending the striker to ground. Altidore popped up and shoved Romero back. Then moments later, Romero went back for more, as cameras caught him biting Altidore....

“These storms have delivered above average snowpack for this time of year, as well as above normal river flows,” Haley Paul, Arizona policy director for the non-profit environmental organization the National Audubon Society, told Newsweek. The data can be visualized using an interactive map by the Colorado Basin River Forecast Center, which shows above average snowpack and a significant rise in water levels at many of the center’s data reading stations....

It seems that way. With new technologies like satellite and microwave battling cable and telephone for control of the Information Highway, Gore has set himself up as a high-tech traffic cop. Unfortunately, his speech did little to clear up the confusion about the road ahead. Only a Luddite could find fault with his general direction–more private investment and competition, open access to still-undefined “networks,” flexibility in regulation and a democratic approach to the flow of information....

Such was Dr. King’s legacy, a federal holiday is now observed on the third Monday in January, to coincide with his January 15 birthday. However, the holiday is often sometimes not observed on this exact date, as is the case this year. Americans consequently have an opportunity to pause and remember Dr. King’s efforts in combating racial inequality on January 17, 2022. As a result, some banks are closed on MLK day, while some private businesses may also shut their doors—but are stock markets open on this federal holiday?...

It should make for a special event, one of the types of moments that helps American soccer as it continues the healing process after missing the 2018 World Cup. Some high-profile candidates in Brad Friedel and Carlos Bocanegra should draw more attention to this year’s class, while also overshadowing the sad reality that the process being used to select U.S. Soccer Hall of Fame inductees remains flawed. The past two Hall of Fame classes saw only one person inducted (Brandi Chastain in 2016 and Briana Scurry in 2017), leaving us with a total of four enshrinees over the past three years via the traditional voting route (this isn’t including Hall of Fame picks chosen via the veterans or builders categories)....

This Saturday, the Texans will visit the Buccaneers, the Bills will visit the Patriots, and the Rams will visit the 49ers. The advantage of Saturday games over Thursday games, of course, is more physical recovery time for players and game plan construction for coaches. Often this year, Thursday night has featured sloppy play, such as when the 49ers nearly lost to the Cardinals in Week 9 and when Browns upended the Steelers in Week 11....

U.S. Postal Service The USPS is closed on May 31 but mail delivery services will continue the following day. The exact hours of operation differ by location.

It has not been pretty, especially for the teams throwing the baseball around the infield. The gaffe in the Pirates-Cubs game near the end of May was an all-timer. Even now, I still feel for Pirates first baseman Will Craig, who to his credit faced the music and admitted his mistakes a day or so later. We’re not going to harp on that one today (here’s a full recap of the “You’ve gotta be kidding me” play)....

Unquestionably one of the five best fighters in the history of the sport and arguably the greatest to ever grace the cage, the 37-year-old finished his career with an astounding 26-2 record, having avenged both of his losses, and he won 13 consecutive contests dating back more than a decade.

Now, the Dolphins will be looking to earn their first playoff win since 2000, and they will have to do so against a team they have already faced twice: the Bills. Buffalo and Miami split their season series. The Dolphins beat the Bills 21-19 at home in a Week 3 scorcher while Buffalo won the duo’s rematch 32-29 on a cold, snowy night in Week 15. The grudge match will take place in Buffalo, and that will give the Bills an advantage....

1. Villanova seems like the quietest candidate for a No. 1 seed we've seen in some time. Are we giving the Wildcats enough due? DeCourcy: I hope nobody misconstrues this, because I absolutely love the way this Villanova team plays the game, but it’s possible even discussing them for a No. 1 seed was giving them too much credit. And that was before the Wildcats lost on a buzzer shot to underdog Seton Hall....

The cause of vitiligo is not well understood, but experts believe that a genetic component may be at play. Read on to find out more about how genetics drive vitiligo development. What’s the Difference Between Genetic and Hereditary Conditions? “Genetic” and “hereditary” are terms often used interchangeably despite their having two different meanings. While hereditary conditions are passed down from generation to generation, genetic diseases can be developed with or without a hereditary component....

The good news is that taking a walk can offset those health problems. “If walking is all someone does, it could be sufficient,” Melody Ding, PhD, MPH, associate professor at the University of Sydney with expertise in epidemiology and chronic disease prevention, told Verywell via email. Health Benefits of Walking According to Benjamin Bengs, MD, an orthopedic surgeon and Director of Special Surgery at the Center for Hip and Knee Replacement at Providence Saint John’s Health Center in Santa Monica, California, a short daily walk can confer several health benefits, including:...

Aside from James Wiseman, who has been ruled out for the season, the three injury concerns the Warriors had heading into the opening game of the Finals - Andre Iguodala, Otto Porter Jr. and Gary Payton II - were all available to play vs. the Celtics. Payton, who has become a defensive ace for Golden State, suffered a fractured left elbow and ligament damage after he was on the receiving end of a flagrant foul in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Grizzlies....

But when it comes to these two popular forms of exercise, is one method better for your back than the other? A Brief History of Yoga The 3,000-year-old Indian practice first appeared in Yoga Sutras, considered the foremost text on the subject and written before 400 CE. While it’s popularly known for it’s flowing movements, yoga also prioritizes conscious breathing, meditation, lifestyle and diet changes, and visualization practices. Beyond building strength, flexibility, and muscle, yoga was intended to cultivate compassion, self-control, and calm....

Causes Fibromyalgia is a disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain accompanied by fatigue, sleep, memory, and mood issues. While we still don’t know exactly what’s going on in the body that leads to fibromyalgia, we do know that chronic pain can cause changes in the brain and central nervous system that lead to central sensitization—essentially making the body overreact to pain and other stimuli (noise, smell, bright lights, etc.). That’s why it’s believed people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), lupus, multiple sclerosis (MS), and other chronic pain conditions frequently develop FMS....
