Presley got a guitar in 1946 and honed his musical skills enough that soon after he graduated high school in 1953, he cut a demo as a birthday present for his mom. His official debut single arrived in 1954, and within a few years, he was the biggest rock ’n’ roll star and a huge movie draw. Tragically, Presley died in 1977 at the age of just 42 from heart disease....
The 5:2 diet is another way of intermittent fasting, but instead of breaking fasting periods up by time blocks, it has guidelines surrounding entire days. With the 5:2 diet, followers eat normally for five days of the week and for the other two days, they cap calorie intake at 25 percent (typically between 500 and 600 calories). This is an extreme style of intermittent fasting, and if you’re considering giving it a try, registered dietitians say it’s important to think carefully about how this will truly affect both your body and mind....

In this sweet holiday movie, a group of children bring Frosty to life with an enchanted hat and help him in his quest to reach the North Pole so he doesn’t melt.

The original 1969 special is not currently available to watch on streaming services like Netflix or Disney+, but there are still ways to get your Frosty fix this holiday season....
It was Christmas Eve, 1991, and 12-year old Kristin Harmel (now one of the authors of Friends & Fiction) sat in the back seat of a Toyota Previa minivan with her 9-year-old sister and 6-year old brother. They held hot chocolate and candy canes, and their mom drove them around St. Petersburg, Florida to see all of the area’s best Christmas lights. Jingle Bells and Frosty the Snowman played from a cassette tape, and the three siblings snuggled in the back seat with the joy of Christmas between them....

“Honestly, I did not know anything about Martha,” admits Roberts in Starz’s production notes. “I think these stories are fascinating because they are the ones we don’t know when we think we know everything. It’s a whole new way to see something we felt had nothing left to reveal.” Based on Slate’s Slow Burn podcast, Gaslit shows how not only was Mitchell a victim of what we’d now call gaslighting, but the entire nation was as well: She was so well erased from the story that 50 years later, most people don’t even know her name....

That meant the winner was either Aidan Bryant or Dustin Tavella— and the $1 million prize went to Dustin Tavella! Update Sept. 12, 2021: Both Golden Buzzers Jimmie Herrod and Victory Brinker still have a shot at winning season 16 of America’s Got Talent, but if the voting for the semifinals is any indication, the two are not the sure thing they seemed earlier on in the competition....
—John Yakel, Cave City, Kentucky The sensation may occur when you have other metal in your mouth from dental work, such as certain fillings or crowns. When the two metals come in contact with each other, especially in the moist, salty environment created by your saliva, a minuscule electric current is produced. This current travels instantly into the highly sensitive root of your tooth, and you feel like you’ve been zapped with lightning....
