At least 50 major retailers have jacked up interest rates on store-branded credit cards to all-time highs — even as inflation continues to dog shoppers nationwide, according to an explosive new study. Big chains including Macy’s, Gap, TJ Maxx and Petco hiked APRs on their store-issued credit cards before the Federal Reserve began slashing rates in September, according to a CNBC report that was based on Bankrate.com data. The retailers are pushing rates to 30% and above — an all-time record that breaks an unspoken APR maximum of 29.99% for the first time in years. That’s despite the fact that…

The Pelicans’ rough start to the season continues to get worse. Zion Williamson has been sidelined — since last appearing in a game on Nov. 6 — with a hamstring injury that now appears more serious than initially thought. ESPN’s Shams Charania reported Friday that Williamson has “undergone multiple treatments on his left hamstring” and is “not close” to a return to the court. The oft-injured star is one of many Pelicans this year who have spent time away due to various setbacks. The Pelicans are 4-12 ahead of their home contest Friday against the Warriors. Williamson has been limited to six games this season. Starting guard CJ McCollum, who is out again on Friday night with a thigh injury, has only played in four games this season. His backcourt teammate, DeJounte Murray, got injured in the first game of the season, breaking his hand. Jordan Hawkins, who had been getting extended minutes in McCollum’s absence, has only played eight games due to a back injury. Jose Alvarado, who had also been seeing more minutes due to the injuries, has been out due to a hamstring injury, which could sideline him for several more weeks. Starting forward Herb Jones has…

Experts tracked the health and well-being of adults aged 45 to 85 over a period of 20 years to understand how their marital status impacted their health — looking at a list of markers to determine whether or not each participant had aged “successfully.” Physical health,…

The only emperor penguin known to have swum from Antarctica to Australia was released at sea 20 days after he waddled ashore on a popular tourist beach, officials said Friday.

He was released from a Parks and Wildlife Service boat on Wednesday. The boat traveled for several hours from the state’s most southerly city of Albany before the penguin…

According to teammate Marcus Foligno, Zuccarello is on the mend after a truly painful experience. “We thought he was gonna lose one nut, but it actually survived and he’s got them both still,” Foligno told the 93X “Half-Assed Morning Show” on Wednesday. “Poor guy got hit where the sun don’t shine and it ruptured his testicle. He can’t even lift anything.” Still, there…
