A profanity-laced argument that almost turned into a physical altercation. An auditorium full of people turning their backs and humming to drown out an anti-transgender protester. A defiant rendition of “This Little Light of Mine.”The near-constant disruptions stretched the November meeting of a Manhattan parent council to nearly four hours. About halfway through, Maud Maron, a conservative activist and the council’s best-known member, paused to admonish the crowd. “Next month will be the 10th month of these histrionics.”Ms. Maron’s critics say she’s the one putting on a show.

An illegal hit on Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence led the player to be carted off the field, sparked an ejection as well as a confrontation between Jacksonville and Houston Texans players on Sunday. Lawrence had run for a first down with four minutes to play before halftime during the Week 13 game and had begun a feet-first slide to end his play. Houston linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair continued to run toward Lawrence and hit the quarterback with his forearm, knocking Lawrence’s head backward, and it later bounced off the turf. The hit occurred in front of the Jacksonville sideline and Jaguars teammates immediately ran to confront Al-Shaair. Al-Shaair was ejected for the hit and was led off the field by team personnel to boos throughout the Florida stadium.

Property companies say the quality of the skiing is not the only criteria for some Alpine buyers. Instead of winter sports, wellness is taking priority for many seeking an Alpine chalet. AdvertisementYet, for some wealthy chalet buyers in upmarket towns such as Gstaad and Courchevel, it seems skiing is no longer the only draw. Pristine slopes are not the only draw for Alpine chalet buyers. Rollason added that if the uber-wealthy are buying a chalet, "then it's not just a chalet — it's an all-encompassing leisure object."

Carnesecca coached St. John’s to the NIT title in 1989, although by then the tournament had long been a poor cousin to the NCAAs. In 1958, he took an assistant’s job at St. John’s, his alma mater, where he had played baseball but not varsity basketball. Essentially, St. John’s was getting ready for a road trip to Pittsburgh in January and Carnesecca was under the weather.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence was carted off the field and later ruled out with a concussion after Houston Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair delivered a late, hard hit while Lawrence was sliding in the second quarter of Sunday’s matchup. Immediately after the hit, while Lawrence remained on the ground, Jaguars tight end Evan Engram shoved Al-Shaair in retaliation, igniting a fight between Jaguars and Texans players while medical personnel attended to Lawrence. Al-Shaair and Jaguars cornerback Jarrian Jones were ejected from the game for unnecessary roughness and Engram was given a 15-yard penalty for unnecessary roughness. Trevor Lawrence was hit late while trying to slide, which led to exchanges between Jags and Texans players. Prior to the injury, Lawrence had 41 passing yards on 4-of-10 passing with an interception.

With hindsight, Strangio’s career can appear like it’s been hurtling toward this week’s Supreme Court appearance. Esseks often gets asked, he said, whether the ACLU tapped Strangio to present its case before the Supreme Court because he’s trans. The Supreme Court ruling also could be life-altering for physicians like Dr. Izzy Lowell, whose telehealth practice, QueerMed, provides hormone therapy and other services for transgender and nonbinary people. “I think about all of the arguments that have that have been held in the Supreme Court over just the basic dignity of people.

While physical activity offers mental and physical health benefits for most people, working out has become so closely associated with weight loss that an exercise gift can come across as thinly veiled body-shaming. The risks for childrenThe risks are even higher when giving fitness gifts to children and teenagers. For parents who feel a sense of responsibility to encourage an inactive child to get moving, it’s tempting to think a fitness gift could be the perfect catalyst. While gift-givers might assume they’re offering motivation to be more active, surprising someone with a fitness gift can interfere with the ability to engage in exercise, according to Schilling. Giving such a loaded gift “might actually prolong someone from engaging in health behaviors because they feel hurt by it,” Schilling said.
