General Rules Most multi-symptom cold and cough medications should not be combined with each other. If you need to take more than one medication at a time, always check the labels and be sure you aren’t taking multiple medications with the same or similar active ingredients. If you are taking single symptom medications, in general, it is OK to take several medications as long as they do different things. For example, taking a decongestant, expectorant, and pain reliever would be OK, but taking two decongestants would not....

Such is the call of Ch’timania. On Monday “Bienvenue Chez les Ch’tis” became France’s biggest French-made box-office hit since World War II, passing “La Grande Vadrouille,” a 1966 comedy that held the record for four decades. With 17.4 million tickets sold in just six weeks, the little-film-that-could may yet sink the all-time top draw, “Titanic,” which drew 20.7 million moviegoers to French cinemas in 1998. To put those numbers in perspective, the population of France is 64 million....

The first five years after being diagnosed can be particularly uncertain as patients and their healthcare providers figure out the best individualized treatment plan. But as the medical treatment of lupus evolves, many wonder if their lupus can go into prolonged remission. What the Research Says Most research cites remission as the resolution of symptoms for three or more months. This number can vary, with some studies citing remission as a resolution of symptoms for three or more years....

Physical therapy is often recommended as an initial treatment for rotator cuff pain. However, physical therapy doesn’t help the torn rotator cuff tendon heal. So why is this often used as the first treatment? Treatment of a Rotator Cuff Tear The goal of treating a rotator cuff tear is not necessarily to heal the torn tendon. People can often achieve pain relief and improved strength by relieving inflammation and restoring shoulder joint mechanics....

Jackson is the first Black woman to be nominated to serve on the Court after being tapped by Biden last month to fill the seat that is being vacated by retiring Justice Stephen Breyer. Because Republicans changed the filibuster rules on Supreme Court nominees in 2017, a simple majority is all that’s needed for her confirmation. But can Republicans still block her ascension to the Court? “Republican senators can try to delay the process of confirming Judge Jackson through procedural maneuvers, but ultimately they cannot block Judge Jackson’s confirmation as long as Senate Democrats stay united,” Paul Collins, a professor of legal studies and political science at the University of Massachusetts–Amherst, told Newsweek....

But a recent poll shows Mike Huckabee slightly ahead of Romney, with John McCain a close third. And to this Michigan native—one who left nearly 20 years ago but who returns with some frequency—Romney’s struggles back home are not surprising. Romney being Romney, there’s still time for him to change his positions on key issues. But the ground he’s staked out thus far would seem to leave him singularly ill-equipped to do well in today’s Michigan....

Murray was dominant Wednesday in his first match since losing the Australian Open final to world No. 1 Novak Djokovic. The top seed in Rotterdam, Murray won 6-3, 6-2 over French qualifier Nicolas Mahut.

Alberta oilfield company X-Site Energy Services had originally denied any involvement in the sticker mocking the Swedish teenage climate change activist after its existence made international news. The company now says management has accepted responsibility for the decal being distributed. The offending sticker features a naked female shown from behind having her braided pigtails pulled. The name “Greta” is written across the woman’s lower back—an apparent reference to the 17-year-old—with X-Site’s logo appearing at the bottom....

Though initially, Sloly told reporters that it was hard to determine and that he couldn’t guess how many people were in each car, he did provide an estimate. The chief stated numbers were as high as 18,000 and as low as 5,000. Saturday, the most significant number of trucks and demonstrators and dangerous crowds appeared at night with alcohol and other stimulants, according to the chief. The chief said crowds were much harder to manage even though numbers were down....

Coming off a Cinderella run to last year’s Stanley Cup Final, the Habs saw their season go downhill before it even started. The team lost Shea Weber, Phillip Danault and Jesperi Kotkaniemi in the offseason, and Carey Price was out for most of the season with a knee injury. Turns out, those players make a pretty big difference and not having them, well, hurt. A lot. Montreal started the season losers of five in a row; that was a sign of things to come....

While speaking with the New York Daily News this week, 47-year-old Allison Shinn recalled learning that her son, 24-year-old Amani Miller, was murdered in 2016 and said that despite her cancer diagnosis, she is still seeking justice. “Now that I’m on hospice, I’m not on chemotherapy so I’m strong enough to deal with this,” Shinn told the New York Daily News. “We’re still trying to get justice for Amani.”...

Last week, Owens posted on Twitter that she found the treatment Russian citizens in the United States and around the world are receiving is “appalling.” It was a message that was amplified and retweeted by two official Russian embassy accounts. On Monday, Owens said she stood by those words, doubling down on her earlier message. She went on to compare the treatment of Russian citizens abroad to that of Japanese-American citizens during WWII....

The 30-year-old winger has been a key player for the Nerazzurri since joining from Lazio in August 2016 and was quickly linked with a move to the Premier League. Candreva was again rumoured to be on the way out of San Siro in the January transfer window, as his agent said the Italy international would “love” to play in England.

In June, Vancouver acquired forward J.T. Miller from the Lightning in exchange for goaltender Marek Mazanec, a conditional 2020 first-rounder and a 2019 third-round selection, which Tampa used to draft another goaltending prospect in Huge Alnefelt. Miller is one of many key additions that the Canucks have added this summer, which may be enough to help the team climb the standings — and potentially return to playoff position. “I think the biggest thing is how well-rounded the team is now....

“We have become aware of the concerning allegations made about Jake Virtanen,” the Canucks’ statement read. “Our organization does not accept sexual misconduct of any kind and the claims as reported are being treated very seriously by us. “We have engaged external expertise to assist in an independent investigation and we have placed the player on leave as we await more information.” Head coach Travis Green would not address the allegations during his pregame media availability; however, per Sportsnet’s Chris Johnston, Virtanen was not on the ice at the team’s morning skate....
