Shipments were suspended beginning Sept. 2 because additional funding to replenish the supply hasn’t been provided by Congress, the website says.

Since January, Americans had three shipments of four tests each available to them, which means many received 12 at-home test kits.

While it might have seemed like a good idea to stockpile, many are now realizing their unused tests are expired. With updated COVID boosters and the cold-weather season right around the corner, here’s what you need to know about your unused, at-home COVID tests:The short answer?

Philadelphia Phillies on the move for road trip - and toward the playoffs

PHILADELPHIA - The trash talk started well before kickoff, several Phillies sat on clubhouse sofas dissecting their fantasy football teams and giving grief to the players already off to slow starts. And after the Phillies waited out a 3 1/2-hour rain delay — a break interim manager Rob Thomson sheepishly admitted he spent watching the NFL — Rhys Hoskins crowed to the media he was beating Bryson Stott in their fantasy matchup."Literally the whole world knows now I’m beating you in fantasy football," Hoskins yelled down to Stott after his interview ended.Who’s hot, who’s not, which QB stinks, it’s all on the table for a lively debate.But inside the clubhouse, one topic largely consciously avoided is Philadelphia’s spot in the NL postseason standings.

Blue Origin capsule blasts away from failing rocket during dramatic in-flight abort

VAN HORN, Texas - Space tourism company Blue Origin had an unexpected test of its rocket’s in-flight abort system during a Monday morning launch, though no people were onboard at the time.The New Shepherd rocket blasted off from west Texas just before 9:30 a.m., carrying a capsule full of experiments on what was supposed to be a 10-minute ride to the edge of space and back. But one minute into the flight, something automatically triggered the emergency in-flight abort system and the capsule fired its escape engine, pulling clear of the booster rocket at about 30,000 feet.Video footage from Blue Origin’s live webcast showed the capsule pull away and drift through the air before safely deploying its parachutes and landing safely in the desert.The moment of failure.

Pennsylvania woman gets 6 to 20 years in presumed 2011 death of husband

YORK, Pa. - A Pennsylvania woman has been sentenced to six to 20 years in prison on charges in the disappearance and apparent death of her husband more than a decade ago — charges based in part on a partial scalp found in a bag along a road.Hours before jury selection was to begin in her York County trial last week, 71-year-old Virginia Hayden pleaded no contest to third-degree murder and tampering with public records. A no-contest plea spares a defendant from having to acknowledge guilt but is treated as a guilty plea by the court.Hayden was charged in 2019 with first-degree murder and 65 other criminal counts, including forgery, theft, and receiving stolen property in the disappearance and presumed death of Thomas Hayden Sr., who went missing in the fall of 2011.Prosecutors say a large section of scalp with hair that appeared to be tied in a ponytail was found along with bloody pieces of cloth in a FoodSaver bag along a road in January 2012.

MLB adopts first pitch clock, defensive shifts limits, larger bases for 2023 season

Pitcher Jacob Rhame #35 of the New York Mets gets set to deliver a pitch as the pitch clock counts down during the ninth inning of a spring training baseball game against the Houston Astros at Fitteam Ballpark of the Palm Beaches on March 11, 2019 in NEW YORK (AP) - Major League Baseball adopted its first pitch clock, limits on defensive shifts and larger bases for next season in an effort to shorten games and increase offense in a tradition-bound sport.The decision on the clock and shift restrictions by the sport's 11-man competition committee was made Friday over the unanimous opposition of the panel's players, who approved the larger bases. The changes had long been pushed by baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred in an effort to combat the increase in dead time over four decades and suffocation of offense in the age of analytics."Throughout the extensive testing of recent years, minor league personnel and a wide range of fans — from the most loyal to casual observers — have recognized the collective impact of these changes in making the game even better and more enjoyable," Manfred said in a statement.Until last winter, MLB needed one year advance notice to make on-field rules changes without approval of the players' association.
