While shoulder arthroscopy is considered a very safe surgical procedure, there are possible complications that should be considered before undergoing surgery for treatment of your condition. Patients should be aware of the possible complications, and the likelihood of these complications occurring.

The two Koreas could be trading more bombs in the near future–from bottles, not bombardiers. On June 12, if all goes according to script, the leaders of the rival states will sit down in Pyongyang for the first inter-Korean summit talks since civil war ended in stalemate in 1953. The meeting between North Korea’s reclusive strongman, Kim Jong Il, and South Korea’s Kim Dae Jung could tear down the cold war’s last wall....

Certain foods can trigger indigestion symptoms, such as fried, fatty, or spicy foods and chocolate. Informally, indigestion is known as upset stomach; formally, it’s known as dyspepsia. This article explains the difference between indigestion and heartburn, describes indigestion symptoms and causes, and outlines indigestion treatments. Indigestion vs. Heartburn and GERD It’s common for people to confuse indigestion with heartburn and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). But these are separate conditions.

Anatomy The sciatic nerve’s roots leave the spinal cord in the two lowest regions of the spine—the lumbar and sacral regions.

The mood was cheerful and the entire boxing contingent, which is at the center of the syringe controversy, took part in the ceremony this evening. Five-time world champion MC Mary Kom was seen shaking a leg while the likes of javelin star Neeraj Chopra merrily posed for pictures at the event. “We are focussed on the training, nothing more. We don’t know anything else,” said a boxing coach with the team....

Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Kingdom Hearts 2’s versions of Tifa share a lot of similarities, such as their general personalities and the bonds they have with other characters from the FF7 cast.

Released at the start of 2020, Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem clearly took a page out of the book of other ARPGs like Path of Exile or some of the games in the Diablo series. Although aspects of the game were praised, like Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem’s graphics and freedom of customization when creating characters, it did lose some points with buggy gameplay and some less than original features that felt derivative and secondhand....

The Rytec AMR is an “experimental” anti-material rifle, meaning it is more suited to taking out vehicles and kill streaks than just sniping players, for which many of the other snipers and DMRs would be a better choice. The ability to use massive .50 caliber rounds is par for the course, but it also has 25x59mm explosive and thermite ammunition, which makes it one of the most unique and powerful weapons in the game....

The first question, the one with three choices at quarterback, will have a final answer in training camp. The second, however, doesn’t come with a tangible value no matter how many times it’s addressed. How do you avoid complacency and repeat as national champions? “At this point I am watching that very closely,” Meyer said before Saturday’s spring game. “I’ve been in situations where complacency and entitlement seep into the program, but I’ve not seen it yet....

Kim, however, doesn’t appear all that interested in diving into another diplomatic process with Washington. The Biden administration has tried to contact the North Koreans multiple times in the hope diplomacy could be resurrected (the U.S. and North Korea haven’t had direct meetings since October 2019). Overtures in February 2021 went unanswered—and if the words of North Korean officials are an accurate barometer of the future, opportunities for a sit-down between these two historical enemies aren’t particularly bright....

Digital Audio All audio that is recorded or played through a computer system is digital, but all audio that is played out of a speaker system is analog. The difference between these two forms of recording plays an important role in determining the ability of sound processors.
