What a fop to get up his gloves in this style!

He'd made her believe that he was a bored fop with time hanging on his hands.

He is a fop and a runner who has not joined in one battle so far.

And she'd already discovered that despite the fop appearance, he could handle problems.

I began to labour very hard to make myself into a fop, cad.

"I think it is the letter of a fop," said my father, bluntly.

Replacing a hyperactive little man by a polo playing fop.

He had not been impressed by the drunken fop.

I sold it to a court fop for twice what it was worth.

She then slipped away from her partner and padded silently down the street after the fop.

The rich baritone voice and hardened body belonged to no local fop.

The fop of fields is no better than his brother of Broadway.

And since then the elderly fop drives up to the shop almost every day to drink beer.

He's no mincing fop but a man caught in what is finally an unequal struggle.

Dropping it, Kirk shifted sword hands and closed on the second fop.

Kirk didn't make the mistake of dismissing him as a fop, however.

The fop shook his head and went outside.

We meet Carole Ozel, who copes with extraordinary courage with a terrible disease called fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), in which bony tissue forms throughout the body, gradually immobilizing the body in a second skeleton.

The second condition, myositis ossificans progressiva (also referred to as fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva) is an inherited affliction, autosomal dominant pattern, in which the ossification can occur without injury, and typically grows in a predictable pattern.

Hayden suffers from a condition called fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva, or F.O.P. Exceedingly rare, it is one of medicine's ugliest bogeymen: beginning in early childhood, the muscle, tendons and connective tissue of those afflicted simply morph into bone.

He was the first to record the genetic error that causes fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva, and his 1748 Essay on the Art of Healing identified points of interest of breast cancer and referred to the danger of not removing infected lymphatic tissue.

Harry Raymond Eastlack, Jr. (1933 - 1973) suffered from fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), a rare and poorly understood disease in which the bone repair mechanism runs out of control, turning other tissue like muscles and tendons into bone.

In 1942, while the Museum was in Erie, Pennsylvania, Harry Lewiston's performing "stone man" Charles Porter visited a famous local resident also suffering from the disease (likely Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva), and they were profiled in the local paper.
