These New Yorkers are working themselves to death, literally.  Sure, earning an honest living is laudable, but it can also be lethal depending on the occupational hazards that come with the job.  And, unfortunately, in and around NYC, the hard workers who wear hard hats have the highest rates of work-related fatalities, per grisly new data.  “The construction and extraction occupational group had 55 fatal workplace injuries,” revealed a March 2026 report from the US Bureau of Statistics and Labor, in part, of employee deaths throughout New York State in 2024. “Falls, slips and trips resulted in 24 of the…

This is a meteoric rise for the No. 9 pick in the 2024 MLB Draft since Pittsburgh drafted him out of Jackson Preparatory School in Mississippi. Prep…

Scrolling for sex advice? Stop right there. On TikTok, a pelvic floor exercise long popular with women is being repackaged as a fix for erectile dysfunction (ED) in young men, with influencers promising stronger, longer-lasting results between the sheets. But doctors warn it’s no magic bullet — and for some patients, it can make problems in the bedroom even worse. “[This] is one of the most common and consequential misconceptions I see,” Dr. Justin Houman, a urologist with Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, told The Post.
