Here’s the clinical definition of ASD: A complication of spine surgery that can be seen on an X-ray, CT scan or MRI as changes in the motion segments (i.e. the vertebral levels, or intervertebral joints) above and below the surgery site. No one knows for sure if spinal fusion actually causes adjacent segment degeneration. Certainly, there are other factors at work in the development and progression of this condition, particularly advancing age....

The decision comes after years of legal wrangling between the Austrian government, the private citizen who owned the house, and politicians who had differing ideas about what the house should represent. Hitler was born on April 20, 1889, on the top floor of the three-story home in the small Austrian town of Braunau am Inn on the German border. The home was seized from private ownership by the government in 2016 after a legal battle between the Austrian government and owner Gerlinde Pommer stalled out....

It did not go well. Everything about this is terribly cute. The boys run into the banner, failing to break through while creating a pile at the end of the line. Meanwhile, the rest of the team keeps on crashing into them because the two women holding the banner never made the rational, adult choice to simply let go of the ends. My favorite part of the whole video is at 0:26, when two players can see that the dust has cleared on the dogpile in front of them and still decide to just jump on in....

A ButcherBox ad ran during Thursday’s Hannity. Biden received her doctorate from the University of Delaware. Her dissertation focused on retaining students at community colleges.

Call it a hunch based on more years of covering American politics than I’m comfortable acknowledging, but media-conducted public polls that match candidates head to head have grown increasingly unreliable even as they’ve grown in importance. The more of them there are, the less they can be relied upon, at least for their value in predicting outcomes. There are many documented reasons for this, including the ways data are manipulated after being collected and the trend away from landlines to cell phones....

The three points on offer were claimed by the South Korean outfit, thanks to their 29-year-old striker Kim Shin-Wook who notched a hat-trick. Though Tianjin Quanjian took the lead early on, Shin-Wook headed home the equaliser from Lee Yong’s cross to make it 1-1. Later on, he scored twice in quick succession to make it 5-1. First he bundled home a finish off his thighs before finishing off Kim Jin-su’s cross....

Taliban officials said schools must remain closed because it has not yet been decided what uniform students must wear, the BBC reported. The announcement came as some girls had already returned to the school, and many girls who had hoped to resume their education were in tears, the BBC said. Girls’ education has been a key issue since the Taliban took power in Afghanistan in August 2021. Although the Taliban government has said it will respect women’s rights more than it did in the past, it was feared that these were just empty promises....

ISIS has claimed responsibility for the attack after several countries warned yesterday of “very credible reports” the group was targeting the airport. Countries, including the U.S., continue to press ahead with the final phase of evacuations before Tuesday’s withdrawal deadline. The Pentagon said there are “specific and credible” threats for future terror attacks in Kabul. During a press briefing Friday, Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby said the U.S. “expects future attempts....

Though the withdrawal was inevitable, planned by his predecessor President Donald Trump, the botched handling by the Biden administration was not a foregone conclusion. Accordingly, the ignominious scenes from Kabul airport coincided with Biden’s flip to negative net approval. It has stayed negative since. Per the 538 tracker, which takes a weighted average of the polls, Biden’s approval rating is 43.4 percent and his disapproval is 51.4 percent as of December 22, putting him at a net rating of minus 8 percentage points....
