What Is Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH)? Familial hypercholesterolemia is a genetic disorder where the cholesterol levels in your blood are dangerously high. Cholesterol is a fatty substance that is made by your body, and it is also ingested from foods containing cholesterol. These foods include meats and dairy products. Cholesterol helps digestion, builds cell membranes, and makes hormones. People with FH are unable to remove the extra cholesterol that builds up in their blood....

Much of the college basketball world was taken by surprise in late March when Buzz Williams announced his decision to leave Marquette after five successful seasons to take over as the head coach of a Virginia Tech program that has not reached the NCAA Tournament since 2007.

Most parents can’t wait until their kids are out of diapers. You say that’s a mistake. Why? There are a lot of pressures on parents today, which are adding to the competitive feelings of toilet training being a marker of their child’s success… Let the child be the leader. What should parents do? Watch for signs of readiness: They’re ready to sit down. They’re imitative. They put things where they belong....

Ochoa-Lopez was nine months pregnant when she went missing from the Little Village neighborhood of Chicago on April 23. Her body was later found at an address at West 77th Place on May 15, with her unborn baby cut from her body. It was later revealed that the baby was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn unresponsive on the same that Ochoa-Lopez went missing and that Clarisa Figueroa claimed the child was hers....

“They’re finally coming to their senses,’’ lawyer and football fan Robin Ficker told Sporting News from his Maryland office. “They’re coming to them 43 years too late, though.’’ MORE: NFL’s craziest fans | Super Bowl XLIX draws record ratings When the NFL went from blacking out all games in their teams’ home markets to instituting the 72-hour sellout rule in 1974, it was because Ficker had been enraged at the prospect of not seeing his hometown Washington team’s home playoff game against the Packers back in December 1972....

“You and three guests will eat like the players do,” states BiddingForGood.com . “Guests will join Pro Bowl center Alex Mack and members of the Browns offensive line, including Mitchell Schwartz, Joel Bitonio and John Greco, for a buffet at the Browns Berea Training Facility.” All the proceeds go to the Browns Foundation. The site says the players going to the dinner are subject to change based on individual schedules but more than likely it will be a combination of the offensive line, so don’t look for Johnny Manziel to drop by....

Pictures resurfaced on social media of Pugh seemingly on the set of the British-based comedy, though her scenes were never used in the Apple TV+ show. Pugh is set to star in the upcoming move Don’t Worry Darling but there has been much speculation regarding the relationship of Pugh with her director Wilde. Social media has been rife with rumors that the two fell out, which was recently exacerbated when a video surfaced of Wilde asking Shia LaBeouf to come back to work on the movie, mentioning Pugh....

We’ll update these rankings at the beginning of every month, while adding/subtracting players every day as needed. Still have questions? Ask us anytime on Twitter @SN_Fantasy. MORE SEASON-LONG HELP: SN Fantasy | Fantasy Alarm’s Assistant GM Tool There’s been modest shuffling near the top of the catcher rankings, but the biggest changes are some potential fantasy difference-makers coming back from the DL. The Brewers’ Jonathan Lucroy (toe), the Orioles’ Matt Wieters (elbow), the Reds’ Devin Mesoraco (hip) and the Indians’ Yan Gomes (knee) are all healthy now, and should finish as top-12 catchers the rest of the way if they can stay on the field....

Fortunately, there's a whole lot of useful fantasy information jammed in between (those two topics, not between a stripper's underpants), so we're proud to offer up the latest Fantasy Source Baseball Podcast (download here or subscribe on iTunes).

This season might be frustrating for fantasy owners who draft closers early, as at least one of the top-end guys seems primed for a fall from grace. But the draft could also reward those who wait for the right emerging pitcher in the middle rounds. Young fireballers, such as Jose Alvarado and Jordan Hicks, may on paper have more potential down the line. They have not yet proven they can translate their raw ability to consistent MLB production, though, for now dropping them several tiers on our initial board....

The list below features a mix of young and old. While both types of players have their risks, fantasy owners usually clamor for the former and ignore the latter. As such, someone like Orlando Arcia could go well before Jose Reyes in an actual draft, but the latter has just as much, if not more, upside. Most of the players on this list can give you a little bit of everything....

As we return to discussing some highly owned trade options, we’ll also return to discussing possible targets for those players. All leagues are different, so the types of players available depends on the settings and owners of your particular league, but these suggestions can help you properly value your player. Like everything in fantasy baseball, values are fluid, and some of the outlooks of these players have changed mightily recently....

While you don’t need the preseason to evaluate players like Giannis Antetokounmpo, Kevin Durant, James Harden, LeBron James, Anthony Davis or Stephen Curry, there are always a handful of players who thrive in a new situation, giving us a sneak peek at what they might have in store for the upcoming regular season. If you’re behind on your studying for your upcoming fantasy draft, we have you covered with a 2021 fantasy basketball cheat sheet that includes top 200 player rankings, positional rankings, breakout sleepers, draft steals and top rookies to watch for....

As you can see, the rankings are also presented in a tiered format, so you have a better idea of when to reach a little bit and when you can let certain players fall and clean up the value other owners leave behind. Both short- and long-term value is factored into these rankings, as well as floors, ceilings, and injury risk.

Even Kane, with his ridiculous 21 goals, has more blanked in more matches (13) than he has scored (11). So where can owners turn? Who can save us from the frustration of watching our Fantasy strikers go goalless week after week? Fortunately, a lot of forwards changed clubs on Deadline Day. There are now six strikers who have either been added to the game or have changed clubs, and with those new clubs come new Fantasy opportunities....

With that said, FLEX rankings can be critical. It’s important to know what tiers players are in relating to their position, but seeing how they group with other skill position fantasy options is also nice. And if you’re torn between taking a receiver or a running back, you can take a look at how they stack up against one another in these rankings and how the board is shaping out below them....
