Lionel Richie flashed a double thumbs up outside a Beverly Hills restaurant on Saturday, his first public appearance since checking himself into a St. Louis hospital's intensive care unit after two on-stage health incidents rattled fans and bandmates alike. The 77-year-old singer arrived at Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills with his longtime girlfriend Lisa Parigi for a dinner party, nearly three weeks after his hospitalization. The outing came after a summer that saw Richie struggle visibly during performances and cancel shows on his joint "Sing a Song All Night Long" tour with Earth, Wind & Fire, a stretch that left those closest to him worried, even as the singer himself pushed to get back on the road. Richie's health troubles surfaced…Open
On this week’s episode of "One Nation Under God," host Susie Pinto speaks with Monsignor Jason Gray of the Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen Foundation about the upcoming beautification of Fulton Sheen.

Gray is the canon lawyer who led the investigation into the miracle that cleared the way, and he breaks down the case: A baby boy born without a pulse who stayed that way for 61 minutes and who is a healthy 15-year-old today.

Gateway Arch officials confirmed the shutdown and set October 1 as the date the lights will return, timed to the tail end of the fall migration window. The decision reflects a straightforward tradeoff: a few weeks of a darker skyline against the documented risk of mass bird…Open
