Adam Fire Cat to open drive-thru coffee shop in Fayetteville
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (KNWA/KFTA) — Adam Fire Cat, a frequent candidate in local elections, has received approval to open a drive-through-only coffee shop in Fayetteville.
The Fayetteville Planning Commission voted unanimously on May 27 to grant a conditional use permit (CUP) for the business, which will occupy the former Bank of Fayetteville building on School Avenue in the same lot as Mountain Man Supplies and Pawn.
Fire Cat said he plans to operate the shop daily from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m., with three employees per shift and three designated parking spaces for staff. The 4,400-square-foot building will require minor modifications, including a sliding service window, new outlets, signage and a replaced sink.
The business will serve hot coffee and prepackaged food with no onsite cooking.

'This business model is simplistic and will not require any special features of note to impact the building as it stands currently,' Fire Cat wrote in his CUP application.
Fire Cat has previously made unsuccessful campaigns for mayor and for city council.

Trump's fresh White House portrait sparks interest amid controversy over National Portrait Gallery leadership
Nearly six months into his second term, President Donald Trump has a new portrait posted to the White House website. White House officials posted an eight-second video to social media on Monday, showing the new portrait being hung on the wall at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building on the White House Campus. In his previous presidential portrait, which was unveiled just days before taking the oath of office for his second term, Trump could be seen wearing a blue suit coat, white button-up shirt and blue tie. The president showed no expression in the previous portrait, compared to an official portrait taken of him in 2017, in which he was smiling. In the portrait unveiled on Monday, Trump is wearing a blue suit coat, white button-up shirt and a red tie. In both images, he has an American Flag pinned to his coat. The president also shows little expression in the new portrait. White House officials told Fox News Digital the photo was taken by White House photographer Daniel Torok. As of Monday evening, the photo is hanging in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, and it will eventually start rolling out to other offices and federal buildings. Trump's new portrait was unveiled just days after he announced that he was firing Kim Sajet, the director of the National Portrait Gallery, for being a "strong supporter" of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). He announced Sajet's termination in a post on Truth Social on Friday afternoon. "Upon the request and recommendation of many people, I am hereby terminating the employment of Kim Sajet as Director of the National Portrait Gallery," the president wrote. "She is a highly partisan person, and a strong supporter of DEI, which is totally inappropriate for her position. Her replacement will be named shortly. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" A White House official told Fox News Digital that Sajet had donated $3,982 to Democrats, including the presidential campaigns of former President Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton. Sajet also reportedly donated to other Democrats, including former Vice President Kamala Harris. The White House also pointed to the gallery's photo of Trump, which was curated by Sajet. The caption of the photo reads, "Impeached twice, on charges of abuse of power and incitement of insurrection after supporters attacked the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, he was acquitted by the Senate in both trials. After losing to Joe Biden in 2020, Trump mounted a historic comeback in the 2024 election. He is the only president aside from Grover Cleveland (1837-1908) to have won a nonconsecutive second term."

Excessive Urination at Night (Nocturia): Causes and Treatment
Nocturia, or nocturnal polyuria, is the medical term for excessive urination at night. Nighttime peeing is considered excessive if it's disruptive to your sleep. During sleep time, your body produces less urine that is more concentrated. This means that most people don't need to wake up during the night to urinate and can sleep uninterrupted for 6 to 8 hours. However, some people may need to urinate more often during nighttime hours. And this frequent need to pee during the night may require treatment if it's causing long-term sleep deprivation. While it is more common among older adults, nocturia can occur at any age. Read on to learn more about nocturia, its causes, symptoms, treatment, and prevention strategies. What causes nocturia? Nocturia can happen as a result of certain lifestyle choices or medical conditions. Medical conditions A variety of medical conditions can cause nocturia. Common causes of nocturia are a urinary tract infection (UTI) (UTI) or bladder infection. These infections cause frequent burning sensations and urgent urination throughout the day and night. Treatment requires antibiotics. Other medical conditions that can cause nocturia include: Nocturia is also common in people with organ failure, such as heart or liver failure. Pregnancy Nocturia is a fairly common symptom of pregnancy. It can develop at the beginning of pregnancy, but it also happens later, when the growing womb presses against the bladder. Medications Some medications may cause nocturia as a side effect. This is particularly true of diuretics (water pills), which are prescribed to treat high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, or any type of fluid retention. You should seek emergency medical care from a doctor if you lose the ability to urinate or if you can no longer control your urination. Lifestyle choices Urinating too much over 24 hours is called polyuria, which can be caused by excessive fluid consumption, typically more than 40 milliliters per kilogram (mL/kg) per day. As part of that, you may also have nocturia or excessive urination at night. Alcohol and caffeinated beverages are also diuretics, meaning drinking them causes your body to produce even more urine. Therefore, consuming alcohol or caffeinated beverages in excess can lead to nighttime waking and needing to urinate. Other people who have nocturia may have developed a habit of waking up during the night to urinate. How do doctors diagnose nocturia? Diagnosing the cause of nocturia can be difficult. Your doctor will need to ask a variety of questions. The doctor will also usually ask you to record what you drink and how much, along with how often you need to urinate in a 24-hour period. Questions your doctor may ask you also include: When did the nocturia start? How many times per night do you have to urinate? Are you producing less urine than you did before? Do you have accidents, or have you wet the bed? Does anything make the problem worse? Do you have any other symptoms? What medications are you taking? Do you have a family history of bladder problems or diabetes? They may also have you undergo testing such as: blood sugar test to check for diabetes other blood tests for blood counts and blood chemistry urinalysis urine culture fluid deprivation test imaging tests, such as ultrasounds or CT scans urological tests, like cystoscopy tests to check if your bladder is fully emptying when you urinate How is nocturia treated? If your nocturia is caused by a medication, taking the medication earlier in the day may help. Treatment for nocturia can sometimes include medications such as: anticholinergic drugs, which help lessen the symptoms of an overactive bladder. However, recent research has associated these drugs with an increased risk of dementia in older people. Beta-3 adrenoceptor agonists, like mirabegron (Myrbetriq), can help relax the bladder muscles and reduce symptoms of overactive bladder desmopressin (Nocdurna), which causes your kidneys to produce less urine at night However, nocturia can be a symptom of a more serious condition, such as diabetes or a UTI, that could worsen or spread if left untreated. Nocturia due to an underlying condition will usually stop when the condition is successfully treated. What can you do to prevent nocturia? There are steps you can take to lessen the effects of nocturia on your life. Reducing the amount of liquids you drink 4 to 6 hours before going to bed can help prevent you from needing to urinate at night. Avoiding drinks that contain alcohol and caffeine may also help, as can urinating before you go to bed. Some foods, such as chocolate, spicy foods, acidic foods, and artificial sweeteners, can irritate the bladder. Kegel exercises and pelvic floor physical therapy can help strengthen your pelvic muscles and improve bladder control. Pay close attention to what makes your symptoms worse so you can try to modify your habits accordingly. Some people find it helpful to keep a diary of what they drink and when.

ACLU of Michigan dismisses lawsuit against Trump administration over revoked international student visas
The ACLU of Michigan announced it has reached a deal with the Trump administration in a federal lawsuit over the termination of four international students' visas. The students attended Wayne State University and the University of Michigan when the administration revoked their visas. Campus staff typically discovered an individual student's status by checking the federal government's web-based database, the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System. On Monday, the ACLU said it dropped the lawsuit after those visas were restored. "If it were not for the courage of our clients – and the hundreds of others across the nation – we could not have challenged this callous and ruthless attack on students who are simply trying to learn and enrich our community," said ACLU of Michigan attorney Ramis Wadood in a statement. "The aim of this lawless administration is to attack the rights of some, especially vulnerable communities like our clients, and to terrorize us all. The Trump regime will continue to come for our rights, and the ACLU will be just as relentless in pushing back on every front with all that we have." Earlier this year, several colleges and universities across the U.S. reported that the federal government had revoked international students' visas. The move resulted in the Trump administration facing dozens of lawsuits, including in Michigan, over the visa cancellations nationwide. President Trump eventually reversed the action to terminate registrations for thousands of those students. Federal officials said more than 4,700 students would have their visa records reinstated. In late May, the State Department ordered U.S. embassies to halt scheduling new student visa appointments while the administration expands social media screenings for applicants. Meanwhile, international students working to attend college in the U.S. are advised to remove any posts on their social media accounts that could attract the State Department's attention.
