The HPV vaccine can protect against cancer-causing forms of this sexually-transmitted infection. Despite this, some families opt to forego giving it to their children for a variety of reasons. While a common one is the contention that it encourages girls and boys to be more sexually active, the persistent—though unfounded—belief that the HPV vaccine can cause ovarian failure in young women has helped fuel lower-than-expected turnout rates among American schoolchildren....

Rescue experts in Fort Worth recovered the dog last week after a call from a concerned citizen and noted in a Facebook post it had been thin, wounded and “horribly matted.” And after some investigation, it emerged the small mix breed had been missing for over a decade. The wounded canine, named Remington, or Remi for short, was traced back to original owner Aaron Webster, who lives with his family in Houston....

The video shared on TikTok on September 28 by the dog’s owner, under the username iamrachelmarch, shows the 13-year-old golden cocker spaniel cuddling with his human one last time, resting his head on her shoulder seeking comfort. The clip comes with a caption that says: “Update: Officially RIP Bowie [baby]” followed by three hearts and a crying face, following a series of updates on the last few days of Bowie’s life....

“He needs to back off and let the FBI handle it,” Cecily Chapman told The Sun. Cecily Chapman, 28, is the daughter of the reality television star’s late wife Beth Chapman. Since their mother’s death in 2019, she and her 22-year-old sister Bonnie have been estranged from Duane Chapman, who has now remarried Francie Frane. Now Duane Chapman is leading a high-profile search for the missing boyfriend of Gabby Petito while a nationwide manhunt is underway....

The scenario is simple: we follow the owners and handlers of five dogs (a Weimaraner, Norwich terrier, bloodhound, Shih Tzu and standard poodle) headed for the prestigious Mayflower Dog Show in Philadelphia. The cast, which includes Parker Posey, co-writer Eugene Levy (as a man with two left feet), Catherine O’Hara, John Michael Higgins and Guest as a Southern bloodhound owner and aspiring ventriloquist, is uniformly wonderful. But best in show may have to go to Fred Willard as the dog show’s boisterously inappropriate announcer Buck Laughlin....

The Duke of York is locked in a standoff with the D.O.J. over whether he will give evidence to the investigation into the New York financier. However, sources close to the royal in October told Newsweek he will clear his name and then make a return to public life. Barry Levine told Newsweek that investigators could compel Andrew’s testimony if they first obtained evidence from the Special Operations 14 Metropolitan Police unit that provides royal protection....

Some know her best by growing up up listening to her music, such as the classic “Jolene,” “9 to 5,” and “I Will Always Love You.” It’s also worth noting that she can play the dulcimer, the autoharp, banjo, guitar, electric guitar, the fiddle, the piano, the recorder and the saxophone, as per The List. She notably wrote “9 to 5” by rubbing her acrylic nails together to re-create the sound of a typewriter....

Dolph Ziggler cut, in my opinion, one of the best WWE promos in a while for an interview on the WWE App. It would really be a shame if they didn’t air the promo on RAW. In some ways, it reminded me of one of my favorite wrestling promos of all time which was the promo below when Randy Savage was in ICW. It took a basic wrestling angle and combined intensity, reality and emotion in a way that you don’t really see anymore....

The incident occurred during the Florida aquarium’s Flipper Dolphin Show on April 9. Photographer Shannon Carpenter—who was at the show with his family—captured the moment and posted it to TikTok. In the footage, which can be seen here, a trainer in the water suddenly appears to be struggling to stay afloat. It then seems as if she is violently pushed forward. She then attempts to make her way out of the pool, however, she disappears below the water....

Miami’s punter completed a 14-yard pass to Kamu Grugier-Hill during a Week 15 matchup with the Patriots. It was good for a first down on fourth-and-seven in New England territory. But the referees threw a flag because Grugier-Hill didn’t report as eligible. It wasn’t just bad luck for Haack on this occasion. Two weeks ago, the Dolphins punter had a rushing touchdown called back because they aligned in an illegal formation....

A banner that read “Stop rape & domestic abuse. Beat FSU” flew over the stadium. It’s an interesting combination of messages but maybe saying just one isn’t enough. MORE: Steve Spurrier makes joke about Clemson | Boy drops to his knees after missed FG | Ice cream eating in the snow One is definitely a good message and depending on who you root for, the other could be seen as one too....

This article discusses the interaction between hormonal birth control and Lamictal and other birth control methods to consider. Lamictal and Birth Control Research has found that those using combined hormonal OCs (birth control pills that contain both synthetic estrogen and progestin hormones) experienced a greater than 60% reduction in the effectiveness of Lamictal. It was later discovered that this is due to the estrogen in combined hormonal contraceptives. Estrogen in OCs can increase the speed of Lamictal’s metabolism in the body by inducing the liver enzymes involved....

Double masking can impact comfort and wearability which in turn can decrease compliance, according to Michelle Ogunwole, MD, health disparities researcher and social epidemiologist based in Baltimore. “We had so much concern about wearing a mask and being able to breathe,” Ogunwole tells Verywell. “I think part of it is worrying that asking people to do an extra step will be even harder.” Currently, there is no data that supports double masking....

But is he a Hall of Famer? That question was brought up by a random Twitter user, and it caught the attention of Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, who you’ll remember took home the NFL MVP this season after breaking Vick’s single-season record for rushing yards by a quarterback. Jackson has been compared to Vick for obvious reasons, and he seems to be of the mind set that the Falcons legend is absolutely a Hall of Fame player....

Part of what makes the performance so powerful is how much she makes us as an audience care for her character despite her many flaws. We are even on her side right at the end, when Nina (played by Dakota Johnson) gets her revenge on Leda (Colman) by stabbing her with a hatpin. Exactly how much damage that hatpin does is left ambiguous. We see that Leda is hurt enough that she crashes her car, but it is not entirely clear what happens at the end....

The Questions About Soy and Breast Cancer Before launching into the controversy about soy and breast cancer, it’s important to point out that this is about more than one question. Many of you have heard that soy may lower the risk of breast cancer, but that breast cancer cells grown in a dish grow more rapidly if fed soy. What is that all about? Some of the separate questions include:...

Some people are wondering if Kamado Tanjiro becomes a demon in the series. He is a character who swore to kill every demon and free humans from their tyranny. Those who have read the manga will have a fair idea as to what the answer is. This article will refer to the manga and provide some information on whether Tanjiro really becomes a demon in the series. Disclaimer: This article contains major spoilers from the manga series....

These were the words of one of Pakistan’s most prolific batsmen, Younis Khan, as he stepped away from International cricket. Unsurprisingly, this wasn’t the first time a batsman had said that. Michael Vaughan, Brendon McCullum, among others have reflected on how they let captaincy affect their batting. This brings us to question whether or not the burden of captaincy affects a batsman’s performance with the bat. Indeed, this is not a new question....

The clip, shared by TikTok user @adelin.mrt, shows just the face of a dog fast asleep on a classroom table. The dog appears to be wrapped inside some type of blanket or perhaps a person’s coat, with its eyes closed and just one of its paws sticking out. A study by researchers at North Carolina State University, which was published in December 2020 in the peer-reviewed Scientific Reports, found that most dogs have two windows of “activity peaks” during the day....

The trend sees pet owners use a popular sound on the app, documenting a comedic voice confronting someone over “talking smack” about them. TikTok users often mouth the audio animatedly in the face of a person, but some have chosen to use their dogs as the role. According to dog behavior experts and vets alike, however, the trend could be incredibly stressful for dogs and dangerously result in the dog biting the owner’s face, they warned Newsweek....
