Sperm parameters declining among men aged 25-40, warn Mumbai doctors

When it comes to fertility and reproductive health, male infertility is often ignored but needs serious attention, especially in light of the surge in cases of declining sperm parameters among men aged 25-40, according to health experts.

Is Alamo Drafthouse’s New ‘All In’ Plan Worth the Extra $10?

If you haven't been to the movies in a while, you...actually probably won't be surprised to learn that, like everything else, tickets are getting more expensive. According to The Numbers, a seat for the average movie in the U.S. now costs $11.31, up from $9.16 in 2019. Depending on where you live, or if you're seeing a show in a premium format, it might be a lot more. (In Brooklyn, I count myself lucky if I can see a Saturday night show for less than $20.)That's why theater subscription services like AMC Stubs A-List can save you a lot. For a flat fee, they allow you to see a set number of movies per month. If you hit up the theater often enough—as little as twice—it will pay for itself, but you have to make sure you do the math (and account for all the fees involved) so you don't wind up ...

Trump attending the US Open. Any boos may not be seen on TV – National

NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. President Donald Trump is attending the U.S. Open on Sunday as a guest of Rolex despite imposing steep tariffs on the Swiss watchmaker’s home country and with organizers seeking to keep off-court disruptions — such as audience members booing him — from being seen on the TV broadcast. Trump has built the bulk of his second term’s domestic travel around attending major sports events rather than hitting the road to make policy announcements or address the kind of large rallies he so relished as a candidate.He’ll be watching the men’s final between second-seeded Carlos Alcaraz, a 22-year-old Spaniard, and No. 1 seed and defending champion Jannik Sinner, 24, of Italy, from Rolex’s suite.The president’s acceptance of Rolex’s invitation comes mere weeks after the Trump admini...
