Diagnosis Related to Weight Loss Surgery The most common diagnosis that leads to weight loss surgery is obesity. That’s because carrying extreme excess weight on your body can lead to other serious medical conditions, including metabolic syndrome, sleep disorders, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and others....

Golden weapons have been a part of Overwatch since the original game was released in 2016, and they often symbolize accomplishment with a specific hero. These sought-after cosmetics are earned through spending 3,000 Competitive Points, which, as the same suggests, are gained through playing Competitive matches. While Overwatch 2 just came out, one player has already unlocked one of these guns, albeit unintentionally and temporarily.

Building on and refining the open-world formula established by previous Elder Scrolls games, Skyrim’s addictive gameplay and seemingly endless series of adventures to take part in even managed to draw in some gamers who typically shunned RPGs....

Unlike many other AAA releases that suffered from a cacophony of technical issues, Skyrim remains an outlier for several members of the gaming community. On top of being absolutely hilarious, many of the glitches in Skyrim are quite beneficial to players, with the overwhelming majority of Skyrim speedruns relying almost exclusively on glitches. Although, this most recent glitch involves a seemingly inebriated bear. RELATED: Bizarre Skyrim Clip Seems to Show NPCs Attacking a Child...

It can withstand the heat of a direct flame; engineers use it for insulation on oil rigs and for warmth in the insoles of hiking boots worn in the coldest temperatures on Earth. NASA uses it to trap comet dust blowing through the universe at six kilometers per second. It even works as casual, sporty jewelry—AeroGem sells a key chain with an aerogel bob on the end, and a pendant “hermetically sealed inside silver-over-titanium end caps for added strength and long-lasting, waterproof durability....

According to the police, the woman threw her drink and food bag at the Wendy’s employee.

The Gunners last finished outside the top four in 1995-96, when they had to settle for fifth place the season before Wenger’s arrival. However, Arsenal now sit sixth in the table with 10 games left and are in real danger of missing out on Champions League football for the first time under Wenger. The Frenchman refuses to throw in the towel just yet, though, and hopes a strong run in April can see them bridge the seven-point gap to fourth....

Alshon Jeffery, WR, Bears. How did Jeffery follow up his career game in Week 4? With another career game against the Saints, catching 10 passes for 218 yards and a TD.

Fantasy owners have to wonder if Marshall’s hip is hurting more than the Bears are letting on....

So far, the answer is a resounding "no." Through five games, the Broncos quarterback is on pace for an astounding 64 touchdown passes, which would shatter Tom Brady's NFL record of 50 from 2007, and has racked up roughly 196 fantasy points in standard, six-point passing TD leagues. That's 55 points more than No. 2 QB Drew Brees and more than double the fantasy output of Brady. Don't expect Manning to slow down at all this week against Jacksonville....

A Week 8 matchup with the Bears could look intimidating, but they just got run all over by Latavius Murray. Chicago is without defensive line star Akiem Hicks, who went on the IR. In the six or so quarters since he’s been out, Josh Jacobs and Murray have gashed the Bears’ defense on the ground. So, maybe that makes Gordon a good play, but it shouldn’t even affect Ekeler in fantasy owners’ minds going forward....
