Mpox infections can also be painful, causing unsightly crusting rashes and intense flu-like symptoms. Although less common, complications like diarrhea, vomiting, and eye infections also can occur. Adding to the burden is the emotional stress that mpox can inflict. This can develop due to the stigma that some people feel when diagnosed with a disease that can be passed through sexual contact. Others struggle with having to isolate themselves during recovery to prevent the further transmission of infection....

Wilkerson was late to the team meeting at which his teammates were going to present the cake. When Wilkerson didn’t show, the Jets defensive players didn’t let the cake go to waste. The meeting was before the team’s final walkthrough ahead of New York’s Oct. 23 game against the Ravens. Wilkerson skipped the walkthrough altogether, according to NFL Media.

Carlos Trejo was taken into custody in the early hours of Sunday morning, before officers scrambled to investigate whether his grim story checked out.

The German centre-back, who joined the club from Valencia in August, has been somewhat of a good luck charm for Arsene Wenger’s side this term, with all four of their defeats coming in his absence. Wenger: I won’t rush Welbeck And while the 24-year-old understands that maintaining that record for the remainder of the campaign will be tough, he does believe it is achievable. “I hope I can keep that statistic until the end of the season,” he told Sky Sports News....

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute in the U.K. published a study in the journal Science advances about a combination therapy for cancer that is now at the clinical trial stage. Only about a quarter of people diagnosed with lung cancer survive more than five years after diagnosis, while about 1.8 million people die from lung cancer every year. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death globally....

America’s horsepower arms race is escalating. And it’s not just sports cars and SUVs. Tame family cars like the Nissan Altima and the Toyota Sienna minivan are packing power once found only in muscle cars. For all the overwrought talk of an SUV backlash and the rise of “green cars” like the Toyota Prius, Americans are actually pumping up the juice in all kinds of cars. But unlike politically incorrect SUVs, the traditional car with massive horsepower is virtually guilt-free, a stealth excess....

That was my “click of awareness.” Another six months went by before Dad complained to his doctor of feeling disoriented in unfamiliar surroundings, like hotel rooms. It was in the fall of 1994, at the Mayo Clinic, that my father was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. The click of awareness. A woman drives to the supermarket and sits in the car for 30 minutes because she can’t remember how to open the car door....

In truth, I’m innocent. My domain name is being used as a phony return address by spammers wishing to hide the real origin of their come-ons. I discovered this when I suddenly began receiving dozens of bounced e-mail messages and out-of-office replies referencing mail I hadn’t sent. (My ISP forwards all stevenlevy.com mail directly to me.) Sometimes the original message was sent along, and to my horror, each one was a carnival-barker plea to buy the penny stock of some obscure enterprise, like the tiny company with some mineral rights in British Columbia that was shifting its focus to entertainment and media opportunities in China....

With a deployed Army husband and time on my hands, I started the quilt. After the kids were in bed each night, I’d gather some squares from the box and spend my evening sewing. The needle clicked against the thimble in an otherwise quiet house as I sewed the patches together. And as I sewed, I got to thinking about the memories connected with each one. Eleanor Roosevelt once said, “A woman is like a tea bag....

How did this come to be? What was wrong with me? I had tried to quit numerous times, only to succumb to the seduction of my old friend Copenhagen, in the black can with the tin lid. Those white letters were imprinted on my psyche as well as the can. I was chewing a can of Copenhagen every day. Each failure to quit brought a new round of shame and humiliation....

Livestreams shared on Burmese media showed people gathering in different parts of Yangon, including the U.S. embassy, as the internet blackout imposed the previous evening appeared to lift. On Monday, more than a dozen police trucks with four water cannons were deployed near Sule Pagoda in Yangon, where many of pro-democracy protests have been taking place. The footage shows people, many of them young, holding placards with slogans such as “we don’t want dictatorship”, “We need the U....

This disorder affects both men and women. It can occur at any age but usually is diagnosed in people between 50 and 70 years old. Only about three people out of every 200,000 will develop this disease, which comes in several different forms. Is It Cancer? A lot of websites refer to myelofibrosis as “a rare blood cancer.” That’s a simple way to sum it up, but it’s not technically correct....

An NFL spokersperson said the league looked into Garrett’s allegation but “found no such evidence” Rudolph uttered a racial slur, per Schefter. Garrett, however, indicated Thursday night on Twitter that Rudolph did say something objectionable. Rudolph earlier Thursday denied Garrett’s allegation through a Steelers spokesperson, who said Rudolph “will not discuss this accusation any further” and added “his focus remains on preparation for Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals.”...

Myositis-type inflammation is caused by lymphocytes, white blood cells that typically protect the body’s immune system. With myositis, lymphocytes and foreign substances invade healthy muscle fibers. Chronic (ongoing) inflammation, over time, destroys muscle fibers, causing muscle function loss, immobility, and fatigue. Because of its rarity, a diagnosis of myositis isn’t always easy to make, and the cause of it is not always known. According to The Myositis Association, all forms of myositis affect an estimated 50,000 to 75,000 Americans....

Lindell had previously been criticized for continually pushing Trump’s baseless claims of widespread voter fraud in the election. He also appears to have backed the insurrection at the Capitol on January 6 and was photographed holding a note before a meeting with Trump following the attack that seemed to advocate the imposition of martial law. “Today 01/15/2021 the MyPillow founder met with President Trump and suggested instituting martial law after the twice impeached president staged a coup,” a description on the petition page reads....

Gorbuntsov appeared in a new documentary, titled Secrets of the Oligarch Wives, that showcases the female partners of Russian oligarchs and allows them to share what they have witnessed in their proximity to President Vladimir Putin’s regime. “A killer comes up with his own method when he’s ordered to take out a family,” Gorbuntsov said while speaking about the oligarch deaths, according to an English translation. “Similar methods but each slightly different—an axe here, a gun there....

Lindell, Trump and other allies of the former president continue to promote the conspiracy theory that Biden won the presidency through widespread voter fraud or “hacked” election machines. No evidence has emerged corroborating their claims, while election and cybersecurity experts have consistently debunked their allegations. Numerous audits and recounts have reaffirmed Biden’s victory as well. None of that has deterred Lindell, however, who continues to travel the country to promote the so-called “Big Lie” that the election was “stolen” from Trump....
