Because the condition can be deadly if it’s left untreated, it’s important to diagnose and treat those with peritonitis as soon as possible. Symptoms Symptoms of peritonitis can be serious and excruciating. Pain can be so intense that individuals resort to curling up in a ball as they try to stay as still as possible....

How confusing this was to those who understood that the poor cannot eat plain talk and that many a straight shooter is antagonistic to gun control. Senator McCain has opposed so many positions that Sen. John Kerry supports that the notion of the two running together was the ultimate Jekyll-Hyde ticket. Women who care about abortion rights knew that McCain had a zero rating from pro-choice groups; African-Americans knew he had been hostile to affirmative action....

Properly called Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD) this condition was named after the healthcare providers who first described the disease in the early 1900s, but the condition still remains incompletely understood. Treatment remains controversial, sometimes requiring surgery in the childhood years, other times being managed with nonsurgical treatments. Younger children often do best with nonsurgical treatment, whereas children diagnosed at a later age may do better with surgical intervention. Research is ongoing to determine the causes, prognostic factors, and ideal treatment of Perthes disease....

During a campaign event over the weekend, student activist Greg Chung asked Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, directly about the concerns. “I wanted to ask if you think that taking big money out of politics includes not taking money off of billionaires and closed-door fundraisers,” Chung asked, in a clip that has circulated on social media. Answering immediately, Buttigieg responded: “No.” The candidate then walked away to talk to other attendees at the event....

So on Monday, he resigned as president and chief operating officer of the Philadelphia-based sports and entertainment company that owns the Philadelphia Flyers, the Wells Fargo Center and a group of sports-related subsidiaries. “I think it’s pretty simple,” Luukko said, during an interview Tuesday afternoon. “I had been with the company 25 years.

We’ll spare you the details of the case but the bottom line for fantasy owners is they won’t see Peterson on the field this week — and possibly several more. He was deactivated for Week 2. This is a serious case, and in the wake of everything else that’s gone on with the NFL lately, you can bet the league will be proactive in disciplining Peterson, whether that’s through the league office or by putting pressure on the Vikings....

Now that’s leadership — and a definitive message sent. Manning, of course, is not known for demonstrative on-field acts, or for having to answer to the league office for anything. But this was a special occasion, and after throwing a touchdown pass to Emmanuel Sanders, he ran down field, got into the face of Swearinger, the Texans’ safety, and unleashed some profane comments. The reason: on the play before the touchdown, Swearinger had been flagged for a blow to the head of Wes Welker, who suffered a concussion for the third time in 10 months and was knocked out of the game....

He took the field with the Broncos trailing 13-7 — and with the offense having turned the ball over five times. The sellout crowd at Invesco Field at Mile High gave him a standing ovation. They were rewarded in less than three minutes: he completed his first pass in a month and a half, to Virgil Green, and the Broncos drove to the Chargers’ 1-yard line. C.J. Anderson finished off the 80-yard drive with a one-yard plunge into the end zone, and Brandon McManus nailed the extra point to give Denver a 14-13 lead....

However, such incident are rare, and experts say the benefits of having the COVID vaccine far outweighs the risks. On Wednesday, Slaoui said according to CNN: “That frequency [of allergic reactions] as it stood yesterday, is superior to what one would expect with other vaccines.” At that time, he was aware of six cases. Slaoui said vaccine manufacturers and the National Institutes of Health were considering starting clinical trials on COVID vaccines involving people with serious allergies to try to determine how common such responses are, and their cause....

Justin Thomas — one of DeChambeau’s playing partners on Friday — said after the round: “The slow people know who they are, and they just need to play faster....

SAN MARTIN, Calif. -- On a day of low scoring, Brooks Koepka kept up his end of the bargain and stayed in the lead at the Frys.com Open.

It added to a 4-under 67 and a two-shot lead over George McNeill and Jason Kokrak going into the final round at CordeValle....

One was a two-putt par. The other was a tough flop shot from 50 feet that he knocked in for birdie on the 17th hole.

Speaking Wednesday at TPC Summerlin in Las Vegas ahead of the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open, the slimmed down 49-year-old golfer shied away from revealing just how much weight he’s lost in recent months. “I feel like a chick in that regard.
