What are the Important Acronyms to Understand? CICO is an acronym representing “cannot intubate, cannot oxygenate”. This is a critical moment when your healthcare provider is not able to provide oxygen to you during an emergency situation. In this situation, non-invasive (CPAP or high-flow nasal cannula), minimally invasive (extraglottic airway devices) and invasive (endotracheal intubation) methods of providing oxygen have failed. While this occurrence is relatively rare, CICO is an emergency and requires immediate intervention because failure to oxygenate the brain can lead to brain injury that can result in death....

Having made his debut for Portugal in 2003, Ronaldo is now his country’s record-holder for both goals and appearances, as well as their captain and leader....

The Portuguese is still held in the highest regard at Old Trafford following a productive six-year stint in England between 2003 and 2009 that delivered three Premier League titles, a Champions League crown and the first of five Ballon d’Or triumphs.

State-owned Correos España released a set of four stamps this week with different skin-colored tones. The lighter the stamp, the more expensive; the darker the stamp, the less expensive. The whitest stamp is marked at $1.95, while the darkest stamp costs $0.85. The problem is the implication that light skin is worth more while dark skin is worth less. Moha Gerehou, a former president of SOS Racismo Madrid, told the AP, “At the end of the day, an anti-racism campaign has put out a clearly racist message....

During a phoned-in interview to Newsmax’s Greg Kelly Reports on Monday, Nichols complained that he and other riot participants had been “targeted” by the government and insisted that, instead of participating in violence as the government alleges, he heroically worked to rescue women and Fanone on January 6. Fanone has not indicated that he received any help from Nichols....

You may remember this move from noted BFFs Elvis Andrus and Adrian Beltre of the Rangers. But let’s be honest, this doesnt get old, and perhaps this is the start of a beautiful friendship.

Until that night at Busch Stadium, three months from Monday, the teams appear content merely to chat about their NL Central rivalry — especially in recent days at their respective offseason fan fests. “You’re seeing guys take less money to come here and you’re seeing guys who want to be a part of something special,” pitcher John Lackey told the Chicago Tribune during the Cubs Convention. “It has become that....

And yet that is what Dodgers catcher Yasmani Grandal says he fears as the series heads to Los Angeles, tied at a game apiece. According to the Los Angeles Times, Grandal used Game 1 as an example, with the Cubs’ Ben Zobrist on second base, Addison Russell at the plate and the Dodgers’ Joe Blanton on the mound. “All the sudden, Russell is not taking good swings at sliders, looking like he’s looking for a fastball and in a certain location,” Grandal recalled....

He will coach the final game of the season, which is Friday against Tulsa. Johnson has struggled to create a winning atmosphere, going 15-33 since 2012.

To be sure, the sepia-toned hype of those days wasn’t all hot air. Marconi’s “magic box” and its contemporaneous inventions kicked off an era of profound changes, not the least of which was the advent of broadcasting. So it does seem strange that a century later, the buzz once more is about how wireless will change everything. And once again, the commotion is justified. Changes are afoot that are arguably as earth shattering as the world’s first wireless transformation....
