According to Florida officials, the number of manatees that died in the state this year was more than double the last five years’ average annual death rate. The three groups said the algae blooms are to blame for more than 50 percent of this year’s over 1,000 manatee deaths.

Conte’s men clinched a 3-1 win over Slavia on Wednesday to move up to second in Group F, ahead of third-placed Borussia Dortmund on head-to-head record. Two goals from Lautaro Martinez and one from Romelu Lukaku secured the points for Inter, although they had to wait until late the final nine minutes of the game to seal the win. Inter know victory over Barcelona – who have already qualified as group winners – in their final fixture on December 10, on home turf, will book their place in the last 16....

Ragged Barca downed by Celta Diego Costa and Willian’s goals got the Blues back to winning ways, while they also maintained a clean sheet for the first time in four matches as Conte began with a 3-4-3 formation for the first time at his new club. Moses made his first league start for Chelsea since May 11, 2013 and Conte picked out his make-shift wing back as one of the top performers against the North Yorkshire club....

RELATED: Dark Souls 2: All Thrusting Swords, Ranked Much like their real-world counterparts, the axes in Conan Exiles have undergone many iterations based on available materials and player expertise. As a result, some axes are better than others, and knowing the difference between a crude rock-on-a-stick to a well-forged steel weapon of doom is what separates mere exiles from conquerors. 10 Battle Axe of Nergal Damage: 53 Durability: 1324...

The Germany international has seen his future called into question for some time now, with no extension agreed to a contract set to expire in 2018. Arsenal 6/1 to beat Bate & O4.5 goals Arsenal face a similar situation with Alexis Sanchez, and blocked him from leaving Emirates Stadium over the summer. The January window will, however, present a final opportunity for the Gunners to generate a fee for their want-away stars, and it could be that Ozil is the subject of an offer from Italy....

AGA stands for antigliadin antibodies, which are specific antibodies produced by the body in response to contact with gliadin, a part of the gluten molecule. IgG stands for immunoglobulin G, which are general-purpose antibody molecules. A positive AGA-IgG blood test indicates that the body may be mounting an immune system response to gluten ingestion, but it’s considered less specific than other celiac blood tests. However, a positive AGA-IgG test can indicate celiac disease in a patient with IgA deficiency, which is a problem with your immune system that leaves you more susceptible to infections....

Memphis (-2.5, 137.5) vs. Connecticut, FedEdEx Forum, 9:30 p.m. ET, ESPN "How are these teams playing each other in the first round?," was a question heard around the Sporting News office this week. While that's a testament to the quality of the American Athletic Conference, the answer, of course, is that UConn (24-7 SU, 14-13-2 ATS) and Memphis (23-8 SU, 15-12-1 ATS) are the Nos. 4 and 5 seeds, respectively, with Cincinnati, Louisville and SMU the top three....

El Tri had not lost in a CONCACAF U-20 match since 2009 and, unlike the rival Stars and Stripes, rolled through the initial group stage of this competition without difficulty. Yet they were clearly second best Monday at the Estadio Saprissa. Five Things we learned in Liga MX The United States controlled the match in the first half, keeping its opponent from implementing the fluid passing game Marco Ruiz wants his team to show - and that the team put on display in group stage victories over Antigua and Barbuda, Canada and Honduras....

Marriner, 46, will be assisted by Richard West and Stuart Burt at Wembley on February 26, with fellow Premier League referee Kevin Friend named the fourth official. ‘Only Pogba is better than Kondogbia’ The Birmingham-born official was promoted to Premier League duty in 2004 and refereed the FA Cup final in 2013 between Manchester City and Wigan Athletic. Marriner has shown 92 yellow cards and five red cards in 24 games in all competitions this season, though three of those dismissals came in one bad-tempered match between Panathinaikos and Ajax in the Europa League....

Just another grim scene to come out of the Palestinian territories–or so you might think. But there is one difference. No Israelis were involved in the killing of Abdullah and two others that day. For the first time since the yearlong intifada began, Palestinian policemen shot down their own people with live ammunition. The confrontation started when Palestinians rallied in the thousands to support Osama bin Laden and denounce the U....

Congress’s latest budget bill is no exception. It’s a bipartisan national disgrace. Congress is spending $1.7 trillion of our money without most members of the House even fully reading the bill they’re voting on. The legislation is an astounding 4,155 pages and was released by leadership only hours before the first round of voting began. As Congressman Dan Bishop explains, to have read the bill by the time the Senate voted to begin debate, “you would’ve needed to read 4+ pages per minute, without a single break, for 16 hours straight....

While he may have his fair share of critics, there’s no denying the national pride Conor McGregor has for his country.

Starting off at featherweight, the Irishman won the UFC featherweight championship by beating Jose Aldo and eventually became a double champion by winning the UFC lightweight title....

Maddon exercised an opt-out clause in his contract and is leaving the Rays immediately, he announced Friday afternoon. Maddon was making an average of $2 million on his deal, according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times. Topkin reported that Maddon’s decision was “a combination of financial issues and curiosity over what opportunities will present.” As Maddon follows former Rays general manager Andrew Friedman out the door — Friedman signed a five-year, $35 million deal last week to join the Dodgers’ front office as president of baseball operations — early speculation invariably settled upon Maddon teaming up with his old boss in Los Angeles....

In a statement shared on Wednesday by Nashville, Tennessee’s SuperTalk 99.7 WTN where Phil Valentine is a host, his family said: “Out of an abundance of caution, Phil has decided to be put in a ventilator to give his body much needed rest. “We are confident that he will pull through, & thank you for your continued prayers.” The escalation in the radio host’s treatment comes after his brother Mark Valentine said in an interview with Supertalk 99....

The pair had a war of words this season in their press conferences over the winter period but they have since ended their public spat.
