Celiac is a condition in which gluten, a protein found in some grains, triggers an autoimmune response. With autoimmune conditions, the body mistakenly attacks itself. In this case, the small intestine is the target. When dermatitis herpetiformis also occurs, the skin is being attacked as well. It is easy to mistake dermatitis herpetiformis for other skin conditions. That is why you need to undergo testing by a specialist to confirm the diagnosis and start the appropriate treatment....

“Look, nobody wants to be out there more than Derrick does,” Hoiberg said ( via the Chicago Tribune ). “I know that. I talk to him every day. He cannot explode off that leg.

This will come as a huge blow to both Rose and the Bulls franchise as this is the second time in two years that he has suffered a season ending injury.

But this season too has come to a premature end after only 10 games....

Coman had been expected to start France’s opening match of Group H against Moldova on Friday but injured his back in the warm-up, and it has forced him to withdraw from the squad.

The yearslong odyssey for the Texans to find a true franchise passer culminated in Houston selecting the Deshaun Watson out of Clemson in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft, but it looks like the pairing will soon come to an end, with tumult surrounding the quarterback and the franchise leading to lots of smoke and trade rumors. With organizational chaos dooming the Texans the past two seasons, and ownership reportedly over-relying on the voice and opinions of Jack Easterby and reportedly completely ignoring the voice of Watson, it’s hard to fault Watson for wanting out....

NEWSWEEK: What got you so involved in green design? Cook: It was actually our twin 6-year-old boys who were the conversion experience. My wife and I adopted our boys from Cambodia, and we think of our family as global citizens. In the U.S., we’re using five times the world’s resources, given our population, and if rapidly urbanizing countries such as China continue to increase their consumption of resources, it’s a completely nonsustainable pattern....

Frank Herbert’s classic sci-fi novel, which has also spawned several sequels, is set on numerous planets, features a huge cast of characters, and has a rather convoluted storyline. So it’s no wonder the director himself felt it was a “challenge” to make sure he condensed the story enough that it would not only please fans of the books, but also be understandable to those who weren’t. Speaking at a screen talk at the BFI London on Tuesday, Villeneuve described how he wanted viewers who hadn’t read Herbert’s book feel “welcome....

Court documents state that Dennis Sidorski, 46, was identified by two former employees from video footage taken in the building, where some Trump supporters violently protested the congressional certification of Joe Biden’s presidential election victory. Sidorski, of Ashburn, was allegedly observed walking through the halls of the Capitol during the riot, according to a sworn affidavit seen by Newsweek.

Asked why his reigning champions, chasing a seventh consecutive Scudetto, were not playing well at a crunch moment in the season, the 50-year-old’s face was a picture of perplexed incredulity. “The quality of our play?” he began. “For four years, Juventus have been playing 57 matches a year, you know? I don’t understand. How many do the others play? They’re finished in December. “Good Lord! They go out of the cup, out of everything else....

Derek Jeter’s final home game at Yankee Stadium wasn’t going to end with an anticlimactic 5-2 victory against the Orioles. Nope.
