The Indianapolis Star reported the two got into a “heated conversation” following the Colts’ loss to the Saints, but did not provide further details. MORE: Best photos of NFL’s Week 7 | Colts rookie Phillip Dorsett out 4-6 weeks with broken ankle The argument appears justified: The 3-4 Colts are winless outside their division, their quarterback is struggling behind inconsistent line play, and their next three games (Panthers, Broncos and Falcons) feature teams with a combined 18-1 record....

Will the Colts go 0-3 against the AFC West to begin the season or get on the board in the division to help their playoff chances in an all-knotted-up AFC South? Patrick Mahomes vs. Andrew Luck was supposed to be the marquee QB matchup, but Mahomes and Jacoby Brissett — the only passer in the NFL with multiple TD passes in every game so far — can be just as compelling....

The Ghana right-back was in top form during Wednesday’s Major League Soccer Eastern Conference semifinal clash with New York City FC, capping a good night with a spectacular finish. In the second minute of injury time, the 31-year-old intercepted a pass just outside the box, beating four men before chipping his final effort beyond goalkeeper Sean Johnson as crew run out 4-1 victors in the first leg encounter. “Harrison has been good,” Berhalter said, as reported by his club’s official website....

What Are Combination Acne Medications? Combination acne medications are prescription treatments that combine two acne-fighting ingredients. For example, you can get benzoyl peroxide and a topical antibiotic in one medication or tretinoin and an antibiotic. You apply these medications topically and most come in either cream or gel form. Although the concept itself isn’t new, combination acne medications are, relatively speaking. Dermatologists have long prescribed multiple medications for their acne patients to help them get on the fast-track to clear skin....

Though YouTube success is largely measured by views—and in turn, repeated, proven topics and voice—Gonzalez and Gooden aren’t tied to their past, their top releases or any sort of predictability. The pair are known for their comedy and commentary, and they’re often teased for being undeniably similar, both in video content and personal life. In their upcoming tour, fittingly titled the “We Are Two Different People Tour,” Gonzalez and Gooden set out to create an entirely different kind of stage show that supports the wishes of their fans but allows them to grow....

But in reality, their lives have been greatly altered, perhaps permanently. On Sept. 11, just two and a half weeks earlier, the children’s father, Al-Badr Al-Hazmi–a fourth-year radiology resident at the University of Texas Health Science Center–was studying for his boards when he saw the news of the terrorist attacks on TV. “I cried,” says Al-Hazmi. “My eyes filled with tears. It was absolutely evil.” When he went to the mosque that day, as he did every day, Al-Hazmi prayed for the victims....

On Monday, the Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District’s board was reviewing a newly released report on diversity and equity among teachers and administrators when Henry commented on the district’s percentage of Black teachers compared with the Texas average. Henry said that he had looked up the statewide average of Black teachers and found that it was 10 percent. He then said that the Houston Independent School District, which was “used as a shining example,” had an average of 36 percent Black teachers and a 4 percent dropout rate....

Specifically, a variety of chemicals and materials used in clothing can cause allergic contact dermatitis. Contact dermatitis is a very itchy rash that gradually forms small red bumps or even blisters; rash is typically limited to the site of allergen exposure. Nickel Allergy Probably the most common cause of clothing allergy is due to contact dermatitis from nickel. Nickel can be found in snaps and rivets on pants (especially blue jeans), shirts, and jackets as well as on belts and other accessories....

Allergic Rhinitis Hay fever, or allergy to pollen, mold, dander, or dust, can have you running for the tissues. With allergic rhinitis, cells in your nasal mucous membranes release histamine. This chemical acts on various nerves within the nasal mucous membranes, which causes you to sneeze. It also causes other typical allergy-related problems, like a runny nose.​ Antihistamines, in both oral and nasal forms, are often good treatment choices for sneezing caused by allergic rhinitis....

An image of the sign circulated around the internet on Monday, eliciting thousands of reactions across social media platforms. Maine resident Alura Stillwagon originally posted it on Facebook with the caption, “The racism in Millinocket is real.” Her photo showed a piece of paper taped in a storefront window, with print proclaiming, “Juneteenth.” The following lines added, “It’s whatever…we’re closed. Enjoy your fried chicken & collard greens.” A second photo identified the business as Harry E....

Be Aware of the Drama With the current climate in business and the lack of certainty from the political arena, leaders are often asked to deal with situations for which they are not trained. This makes it easy to get caught up in a drama triangle. This concept, described by Stephen Karpman in the 1960s, demonstrates a model of dysfunctional social interactions such as a power game between a victim, a rescuer and a persecutor....

Ahead of Thursday night’s event, the Magic appear to have their eyes set on Jabari Smith Jr., who starred for an Auburn team that won the SEC regular season championship. “Every NBA team we’ve talked with expects Smith to end up being the pick here,” ESPN’s Jonathan Givony wrote in his most recent mock draft. “Any other scenario would be a major surprise to league executives.” If the Magic do follow through and bring Smith to Orlando, he would find himself on a long list of No....

Whether they are chewing up your newest shoes or digging up some freshly planted bulbs in the backyard—those cuddly canines are always up to something. However, on the day that one TikTok user first brought their pet home, they found the little Blue Nose Pitbull Terrier, whose name is Ashe, embroiled in a fight. No, not with the the neighbor’s cat or even a black bear cub, but instead against his own reflection....

Symptoms of Congenital Amegakaryocytic Thrombocytopenia Most people with CAMT are identified in infancy, usually shortly after birth. Similar to other conditions with thrombocytopenia, bleeding is often one of the first symptoms. Bleeding typically occurs in the skin (called purpura), mouth, nose, and gastrointestinal tract. Almost all children diagnosed with CAMT have some skin findings. The most concerning bleeding is intracranial (brain) hemorrhage, but thankfully that does not happen often. Most inherited bone marrow failure syndromes like Fanconi anemia or dyskeratosis congenita have obvious birth defects....

Representative Stephen Lynch of Massachusetts, who chairs the House Committee on Oversight and Reform’s Subcommittee on National Security, and Representative Jackie Speier of California, who chairs the Committee on Armed Services’ Subcommittee on Military Personnel, alerted Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy about the investigation in a letter sent Tuesday.

“In recent years, violent extremist content has proliferated on both large and small social media platforms,” committee chairman Bennie Thompson, a Democrat, and ranking member Mike Rogers, a Republican, said in a joint statement. “At least three acts of deadly white supremacist extremist violence have been linked to 8chan in the last six months. We have questions on what is being done to counter this trend so we can be sure it is being properly addressed....

The FEC’s recommendation was made after a rare unanimous vote and came on the heels of a New York Times report on the Trump campaign’s use of recurring donation tricks to collect more in monthly fundraising during the 2020 election. These prechecked boxes were reportedly added to fundraising solicitations when the campaign was raising less the President Joe Biden’s campaign. “It’s almost like theft,” FEC Commissioner Ellen Weintraub said. “I don’t want to see donors tricked....

America stands out, however, in its limp response to the scandals. Everywhere else, public disclosure of the industry’s cheatin’ heart changed how business was done. New and lower-cost competitors entered the field. Better consumer protections were written into the law. Here, however, the industry clings to the same old incentives to missell. The states, not the federal government, regulate insurance companies, and the states show no collective interest in reform....
