When Nestor Montalvo woke up last September, he knew something was wrong. He had a headache, and his vision was blurred. The symptoms felt like a “really bad hangover,” but he hadn’t been drinking the day before.  When he tried to stand, the right side of his body was numb.”Everything started spinning. I went to stand up, and I fell,” Montalvo, 61, recalled. “I just didn’t understand what was going on. I couldn’t understand it. I didn’t know why I was feeling that way.”His wife helped him up and immediately called 911. Paramedics gave him alarming news: He was having…

LONDON (AP) — As well as Jannik Sinner is playing at Wimbledon, he doesn’t appear to need much in the way of help. Still, he got some Saturday when his opponent, Pedro Martinez, was dealing with a problematic shoulder and often put in first serves at so-so speeds.The No. 1-ranked Sinner has dropped a total of 17 games so far, made his way to the fourth round for the seventh consecutive Grand Slam tournament — he’s collected three such trophies in that span — and never was truly in trouble during a 6-1, 6-3, 6-1 victory over No. 52 Martinez.“We…

It’s just not enough to cold apply for tech jobs anymore, said Aashna Doshi, a two-time intern turned software engineer at Google.

Unlike other kids in Massachusetts, students living in one Boston suburb won’t be able to go back to school next month unless they’ve had their chickenpox and measles shots, as well as other routine childhood vaccinations.“Any student not fully vaccinated without exemption will be excluded from school,” Newton Public Schools Superintendent Anna Nolin wrote in a memo last month. The directive followed a chickenpox outbreak among students, as well as rising threats of measles, Nolin said.But unvaccinated students without medical reasons to forgo the shots can still get a pass to attend class in Massachusetts: a religious exemption.According to state…

My iPhone threatens to ruin my reputation, career, marriage, friendships, or entire life. Several times a week. Sometimes, I look down to discover it’s been — unbeknownst to me — recording an audio message.With one wrong move, I could accidentally send that accidental audio message to, well, anyone.What might have been in those few minutes of surreptitiously recorded audio? Most likely, just ambient white noise coming from inside my purse or pocket. But it could be terrible! Maybe I was singing along (badly) to the radio. Maybe I was loudly discussing some scandalous social gossip or confidential work information. Maybe…

Tesla’s robotaxis are finally on the road — and on camera.The lucky few who got to ride Tesla robotaxis after last month’s launch posted videos of their rides online, and it didn’t take long for viewers to identify possible errors by the driverless vehicles.

NEW YORK (AP) — Jeff McNeil, arms clasped behind his back, tossed his bat and shouted toward the New York Mets dugout, starting up the first base line as his go-ahead, two-run homer in the seventh inning off Luke Weaver sailed into the second deck at Citi Field.Twenty-five minutes later, the second baseman sprinted a half-dozen steps to his left, sprawled onto the outfield grass and with an outstretched glove angled toward the right-field corner snagged DJ LeMahieu’s one-hopper. McNeil popped to his feet and threw to first for the second out of the ninth.“The homer was sick,” McNeil said…

SEATTLE (AP) — On the spot, Cal Raleigh compiled a laundry list of players he would consider for a Mount Rushmore of Seattle Mariners following their 6-0 victory over Pittsburgh on Friday.Ichiro was one of the first names off the board, followed by the likes of stud starting pitchers Felix Hernandez and Randy Johnson. When identifying who is the face of the Mariners, though, Raleigh immediately landed on Ken Griffey Jr., who he tied for the franchise record for home runs before the All-Star break with 35 with a pair of blasts.“To be mentioned with that name, somebody that’s just…
