Man identified in I-85 murder-suicide, Anderson Co. sheriff speaks out
SUMMARY: Nathan Cureton, 38, kidnapped and killed 24-year-old Tayler Maraj on Interstate 85 in Anderson County, South Carolina, before shooting himself; both died at the scene. The two had a prior relationship. Sheriff Chad McBride criticized the judicial system for allowing Cureton, with a history of violent crimes including attempted murder and kidnapping, to remain free. Law enforcement urges victims of abuse to resist and seek help. Danny Varat, CEO of Safe Harbor, highlighted challenges victims face leaving abusive relationships and promoted resources like Safe Harbor and the National Domestic Violence Hotline for support.

Dealing with denied health insurance claims
SUMMARY: If your health insurance denies a test, treatment, or medication your doctor recommends, don’t pay out of pocket immediately—you have the right to appeal. In 2023, nearly 20% of in-network claims and over a third of out-of-network claims on healthcare.gov were denied. First, call your insurer to check for simple errors. If denied for other reasons, request the reviewer’s explanation and file a formal appeal with your doctor’s supporting letter and documentation. Appeals can take 30 days or more, but you can request expedited review for urgent care. If denied again, insurers must explain the denial and appeal options, including independent review or legal help for Medicare claims. Always question surprise medical bills before paying.
Don’t rush to pay for treatment out of pocket. You have the right to appeal a denial.

The Big Mac was nearly called something entirely different
SUMMARY: The Big Mac, introduced by McDonald’s franchisee Jim Delligatti in 1967, quickly became an iconic menu item nationwide. Inspired by competitor burgers like the Big Boy, it almost had names like “Blue Ribbon Burger” or “The Aristocrat.” The name “Big Mac” was suggested by 21-year-old secretary Esther Glickstein Rose, whose contribution was only recognized 17 years later. Originally priced at 45 cents (about \$4.40 today), the Big Mac has remained largely unchanged, with some spinoffs like the Chicken Big Mac. McDonald’s sells approximately 550 million Big Macs annually, celebrated on International Big Mac Day, August 2.
