Ray Romano “lucky” to be alive after health scare
Everybody Loves Raymond from 1996-2005 as well as films including Ice Age, The Big Sick and The Irishman, spoke about his health scare in a new interview on WTF with Marc Maron.Romano spoke about how he’d suffered for years with high cholesterol – something that led to a 90 per cent blockage in his main artery.He said: “I had high cholesterol 20 years ago and my guy always told me, ‘Why don’t we start going on the statin?’ Every time, I said, ‘Let me do it myself.'”Romano said he would go home and try to eat healthier to reverse the cholesterol himself, but admitted that it wasn’t successful – a pattern that lasted for 16 years.He said he “would go home and eat a little healthier and get it down a couple ticks”, but then his doctor would say: “It was 280 and now its 220 – you gotta get it down even more.”“But I’d go home and think I was hot shit – that was the cycle,” he continued.The actor said that he had to “have a stent put in” because he had “90 per cent blockage” in the artery deemed “the widow-maker”.“I got kind of lucky that we found it,” he continued, saying that he “would have gone on the meds” sooner had he realised how serious it was.Talking about getting older, he said: “Saying 50 was weird, but saying 60 sounds foreign, it sounds fake. In my head I don’t feel that old.

Richard Glossip: Oklahoma court upholds man's murder conviction, paving way for execution

(Credit: Oklahoma Department of Corrections, File) OKLAHOMA CITY - An Oklahoma appeals court on Thursday upheld the murder conviction of death row inmate Richard Glossip, paving the way for Glossip to be executed on May 18, despite the state attorney general’s concerns about some testimony and evidence.Glossip can still plead his case for clemency to the five-member Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board, which could recommend that the governor spare the prisoner’s life by commuting his sentence to life in prison without parole.Glossip has been scheduled for execution before and three separate times came within hours of being put to death.The Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals' ruling said his case "has been thoroughly investigated and reviewed," with Glossip given "unprecedented access" to prosecutors' files."Yet he has not provided this court with sufficient information that would convince this court to overturn the jury's determination that he is guilty of first-degree murder and should be sentenced to death," according to the ruling written by Judge David Lewis.Glossip's attorney, Don Knight, said he will continue to seek a new trial."It is unconscionable for the court to attempt to force the State to move forward with his execution," Knight said.
