Frequent Symptoms Here are some of the symptoms most frequently found in many types of heart disease: Chest Pain or Discomfort Few symptoms are more alarming than chest pain, and while many other conditions can cause chest pain, cardiac disease is so common—and so dangerous—that this symptom should never be dismissed or considered insignificant. Chest pain is an imprecise term. It’s often used to describe any pain, pressure, squeezing, choking, numbness, or other discomforts in the chest, neck, or upper abdomen, and it’s often also associated with pain in the jaw, head, shoulders, or arms....

Black people are disproportionately impacted by diabetes and as a result, have an increased risk of heart disease. In addition, Black people living with diabetes experience more severe medical complications and death compared to the next highest risk group, non-Hispanic White Americans. Differences in genetics, high rates of obesity, insulin resistance, and living in an under-served neighborhood are just some of the factors contributing to this disparity. This article will review diabetes as a risk factor for heart disease and how finding care and using an integrative treatment approach can lower your diabetes risk....

[HTML1] Easily one of the most anticipated titles of 2012, Transformers: Fall of Cybertron comes on the heels of a mixed pair of prior Transformers titles from High Moon Studios. The developer achieved massive critical and commercial success, not to mention the admiration of long-suffering Transformers game fans, with their 2010 hit, Transformers: War for Cybertron (read our review). Unfortunately, newly sated fans were subsequently let-down by the disappointing Dark of the Moon movie tie-in - which, due to a rushed development and thin final product, was mostly par-for-the-course when it comes to licensed games (read our review)....

“Automatic for the People,” the new album by the adventurous folk-rock band _B_R.E.M.,b is a crushed response to crushing times. For the past decade, even on “Losing My Religion,” R.E.M. has distinguished itself for its ability to believe, if not in something as corny as rock and roll, then in the even cornier redemptive power of art. “Automatic for the People” feels dour, like earnestness drained of belief. “Try Not to Breathe” is one song title; “Everybody Hurts” is another....

title: “Hdmi Vs. Optical Which Connection You Should Use” ShowToc: true date: “2022-12-10” author: “Nancy Griffin” Overall Findings Both optical cables and HDMI cables are capable of transmitting multi-channel, high quality audio, with major advantages over more traditional analog audio connectors. However, HDMI supports newer, higher resolution audio standards, like Dolby TrueHD, and DTS HD Master Audio. Optical cables do not. HDMI is also able to transmit video too, and when combined with ARC and eARC technologies, is able to be a singular cable solution for connecting your video and audio sources to a TV and external A/V system, where optical cables can function only as audio transmission cables....

What Is an HDR File? A file with the HDR file extension is a high dynamic range image file. Images of this type aren’t generally distributed, but instead edited and then saved to a different image format, like TIFF. Geographic Information System (GIS) files that contain information on the format and layout of an ESRI BIL file (.BIL) are called ESRI BIL Header files, and also use the HDR file extension....

Speaking after Team USA were thrashed 17.5-10.5 at Le Golf National in October, Reed suggested Spieth had not wanted to play with him during the three-day event outside of Paris. “The issue’s obviously with Jordan not wanting to play with me,” he said, before suggesting captain Jim Furyk should have been stronger and kept Reed and Spieth together after their impressive showings in 2014 and 2016. Nearly two months on and there has been no attempts from either player to put the issue behind them, although Reed says any animosity has been fabricated by the media....

Rodriguez tends to think outside the Hollywood box. Working 1,000 miles from Los Angeles in his native Austin, Texas, he treats moviemaking as his own cottage industry. Not only did he write and direct the delightful “Spy Kids” sequel, but the 34-year-old filmmaker also performed nine other jobs, including composer and editor. What’s more, he wrote and filmed “Once Upon a Time in Mexico,” the final film in his “El Mariachi” trilogy, in just 10 weeks while starting “Spy Kids 2....

Costa has scored just four goals in his past 10 league matches and was wasteful in the Premier League leaders’ shock 2-1 loss at home to Crystal Palace on Saturday. But Conte backed the Spain international, who has 17 league goals this season, and said the 28-year-old’s form is of no concern. “Diego is performing very well this season,” the Italian said. “He’s a great striker and our point of reference in our offensive situations....

LEVY: What’s Microsoft’s next big push? GATES: There’s a lot of breakthroughs we see coming in software to solve some of the boundary problems we think exist today: the boundary between you and your machine… in terms of how you use speech, do you use ink, does the machine remember how you like to do things, the boundary between the different devices. There’s never been a software company spending $6....

That will not be the case as Chiefs coach Andy Reid is not making a quarterback change any time soon. The Arizona Cardinals would actually be fine if Blaine Gabbert, who is filling in for the injured Carson Palmer, was next season’s opening day starter. The New England Patriots have no issues at quarterback with Hall of Famer Tom Brady, who tossed four touchdowns in a win over the Dolphins....

Obscurity used to be fashionable in the Bush cabinet. The president, knowing the trouble caused by such highly visible Reaganites as Edwin Meese III, James Watt and Donald Regan, encouraged facelessness. But the ego-inflating folkways of the capital and the approach of a Bush re-election campaign have inspired a surge of profile raising, especially for “domestic” cabinet officers, who aren’t lucky enough to be on CNN frequently from the gulf....

“The modern world seems to present us with a choice. If we’re not going to fast-twitch from browser window to browser window, [then] we have to live like a hermit, [and] focus on one thing to the exclusion of everything else,” he says in his TED talk. “I think that’s a false dilemma. We can make multitasking work for us, unleashing our natural creativity. We just need to slow it down....

Speaking at a felicitation function for the Commonwealth Games medal winners here, Rathore said there was no dearth of money in Indian sports but the funds will have to be used for justified purposes by both the athletes as well as the federations. “The officials in sports ministry and Sports Authority of India have been tasked to attend to your requirements and resolve your issues at the earliest. At any point in time if I hear that sportspersons are having issues in getting these incentives and funds there are few heads that will roll,” the minister said....

In April, the White House emphatically said no to mandating federal COVID-19 vaccine passports and argued that the rights and privacy of citizens should be protected. “The government is not now, nor will we be supporting a system that requires Americans to carry a credential,” said White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki. “There will be no federal vaccinations database and no federal mandate requiring everyone to obtain a single vaccination credential....

For a long time, the medical community’s focus regarding the treatment of the condition was to uncover how to help patients manage their symptoms while reducing the progression of the disease altogether. In addition to taking preventative measures such as encouraging patients to maintain a healthier lifestyle, mitigating PAD progression and symptoms still remains the primary goal. However, we’re still seeing very high rates of restenosis caused by the overgrowth of scar tissue from traditional stent placement....

The most effective way of treating an affected liver has been surgery, which aims to remove all of the visible cancer. Along with the surgery, patients typically receive chemotherapy or radiation treatments. Unfortunately, in most cases, doctors have been unable to offer patients curative surgery because the cancer is too advanced, there are too many tumors or the tumors are near vital structures. Now, however, doctors are encouraged by a procedure that is growing in popularity across the country....
