An acute injury is usually the result of a specific impact or traumatic event that occurs in one specific area of the body, such as a muscle, bone, or joint. Medical providers use the term “acute” to describe symptoms, a disease or a condition in one of three various ways.

Schiff spoke with Firing Line host Margaret Hoover in an interview that aired on Friday, and ripped on Republicans for blindly following anything Trump has tried to do to disrupt the impeachment process. In a December 5 tweet, the president claimed “We will have Schiff, the Bidens, Pelosi and many more testify, and will reveal, for the first time, how corrupt our system really is.” Schiff rejected the idea of himself testifying before the Senate as a fact witness as “absurd....

Schiff, the lead House manager prosecuting the case against Trump, said that the president had been promoting Russian propaganda designed to erroneously pin the blame for 2016 election interference on Ukraine. He repeated a Putin quote that Rep. Sylvia Garcia (D-Texas) had used in her earlier presentation concerning the debunked conspiracy theory. Putin made the comment during an economic forum in Moscow on November 20, 2019. “‘Thank God,’ Putin said, ’thank God nobody is accusing us anymore of interfering in U....

Silver is apparently ready to continue the fight of his boss into his own administration — raising the minimum age limit for players to reach the NBA from 19 to 20.

Don’t officeholders who take favors ever pause to think about the motives of their benefactors? The motives of business leaders who provide basketball tickets to basketball fans (e.g. Mobil lobbyist Barney Skladany to Rep. Bob Mrazek) or 2,600 steaks to Texas carnivores (Chevron Corp....

The sound is vibrant, and the materials are sport-friendly. The headphones are a product that could work well for soccer practice, a garage workout session or an afternoon jog. Their best feature for this type of use, a snug and secure fit, is also one of their few downsides.
