After weeks of being shut, the restaurant chain has reopened several of its drive-thru stores. The roads soon became gridlocked as people rushed to get their fill of fast food. “I had to take another route to get home because there were so many people,” a 24-year-old local called Josua told French newspaper Le Parisien....

The game is a de facto American holiday, as roughly half the country gathers together to gorge themselves on snacks, judge multi-million-dollar commercials, marvel at the halftime show and, if the game is decent, watch the actual football as well. The television numbers show just how big of a deal the Super Bowl, and American football in general, is in the U.S. With an average audience of 111.32 million, Super Bowl LI was by far the most-watched TV program of 2017 in the U....

With Medicare expected to be insolvent by 2026, the program aims to cut costs wherever it can. It does this by offsetting certain costs to you. The following rules are important for you to understand, especially as they are based more on when things happen than on your health. The Two-Midnight Rule Before the Two-Midnight Rule, hospital stays were based on medical need.

To be eligible for hospice coverage, you must have a life expectancy of fewer than six months. But if you live longer than six months, you can continue to receive hospice benefits as long as your hospice doctor recertifies that you’re terminally ill. The recertification is initially after 90 days and 180 days, and then every 60 days thereafter. Additionally, you must agree to forgo further curative treatment options for your terminal illness, instead choosing treatment options aimed at keeping you comfortable and maintaining as good a quality of life as possible....

Behind his back, GOP staffers call the junior senator from Rhode Island the “Missing Linc,” a pun on his name, an attack on his intellect–but an accurate summary of his pivotal role. The GOP “enjoys” a 51-48-1 edge in the Senate, giving inordinate clout to a tiny band of self-described “centrists” that includes Chafee, McCain and Maine’s Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins. They’ve all spoken out against Bush’s new tax bill, and Chafee is the first Republican to have introduced a competing measure, which would freeze the top tax rate at 38....
