The Juventus forward has vehemently denied the accusations – with his lawyer, Peter Christiansen, telling AFP the request was standard procedure. “Mr Ronaldo has always maintained, as he does today, that what occurred in Las Vegas in 2009 was consensual in nature, so it is not surprising that DNA would be present, nor that the police would make this very standard request as part of their investigation,” he said in a statement....

Carbohydrates or carbs are sugar molecules that form essential nutrients found in one’s diet. Our body breaks down these carbs into glucose, which in turn acts as a means of energy for our organs, cells, and tissues in the body....

Researchers have found that high glycemic index foods (think white bread, potatoes, and sugary junk foods) seem to make acne worse. A diet rich in low glycemic index foods, which includes wheat bread, wheat pasta, legumes, and other whole grains, seems to improve acne. Much more research needs to be done though, as the info we have is still preliminary....
Earlier this year, India completed an extended tour of England that included Tests, ODIs, and T20Is. While India did not particularly have a fruitful tour, the experience the players got in playing in those conditions will ultimately serve them well as they embark on their journey to conquer the World Cup next year. India’s record in ODIs in the last two years has been exceptional. With the exception of a narrow defeat against England in England and a hiccup in the final of the Champions Trophy, they have performed seamlessly in this format, as a team....
Plans for the winter window are in the process of being drawn up by clubs across the Premier League, with one final opportunity to add in 2017-18 set to present itself. City 9/2 to win Champions League City could be tempted to splash the cash again on the back of a big-spending summer, with suggestions that reinforcements could be sought at the back. John Stones has picked up a hamstring injury which is set to keep him out for up to six weeks, while club captain Vincent Kompany has struggled with fitness issues once again this season....
Examples Examples of statins include Lipitor (atorvastatin), Lescol (fluvastatin), Mevacor (lovastatin), Pravachol (pravastatin), Crestor (rosuvastatin), and Zocor (simvastatin). How Statins Might Inhibit Cancer Growth Statins have several effects in the body. They are pro-apoptotic, supporting the process of breaking down cells, including tumor cells. They are anti-angiogenic, acting to prevent cancers from developing a blood supply. Without a blood supply, tumors cannot grow and invade other tissues. They sensitize tumor cells to natural killer (NK) cell activity....

However, even in states with some of the most restrictive bans — such as Alabama, where illegal abortions are classified as a Class-A felony— abortion bills still allow for an exemption: in the case of the life of the mother. All state abortion bills at this writing include this exemption, allowing a qualified physician to make the decision to proceed with an abortion if they believe bodily harm, including cases of organ failure or death, could come to the mother if they continue to carry the pregnancy to term....
Every year, about 618 people in the United States die as a result of exposure to extreme heat. However, experts at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC] caution, that number is likely to rise precipitously as climate change continues to alter weather patterns. By 2090, for example, California is likely to record two to seven times more annual heat deaths than it does now. Earlier this summer, the Pacific Northwest was hit by a historic heat wave that melted power lines, mangled roads, broke local temperature records, and flooded hospital emergency rooms with people suffering from heat-related illnesses, according to Reuters....
They’re making another run at that elusive title. Only this time, Manny Machado is along for the ride. The slugging shortstop hit a three-run homer that wrapped up a 6-2 victory over the Atlanta Braves on Monday, sending Los Angeles to the NL Championship Series for the third year in a row and fourth time in six seasons. This is what the Dodgers had in mind when they acquired the free agent-to-be from the lowly Baltimore Orioles back in July....

“Super Saturday” at the US Open cannot end fast enough to suit reigning champion Novak Djokovic, who railed against the idea Sunday after booking a spot in Monday’s final against Andy Murray.

DNC members voted down a resolution which would have allowed 2020 presidential candidates to attend debates devoted to one specific topic, a piece of language which was inserted by climate change activists at a controversial Resolutions Committee last Thursday. As it stands, the Democratic Party presidential candidates are not allowed to appear together on stage outside of official DNC-sanctioned debates. A 222-137 DNC vote overseen by Chairman Tom Perez defeated the Thursday resolution which called for a standalone Climate Crisis debate....
