In a forum thread dedicated to asking players how they would fix Roadhog in his current state, Principal Designer for Overwatch Geoff Goodman announced that Blizzard is working on a solution that could make all parties happy. The character’s offensive strength is likely to remain the same, but the Australian gun-for-hire might be seeing a boost to his defense. Prior to the nerf, Roadhog was able to dish out an enormous amount of damage with his hook/shot combo, which was more than enough to finish off squishy heroes, as well as dealing significant damage to powerful tanks....

"It was a possibility for which we were always prepared," says Pirates general manager Neal Huntington. "We’ll see how it plays out, but we hope (Francisco) Liriano, (Gerrit) Cole, (Charlie) Morton, (Jeff) Locke and Wandy (Rodriguez) will stay healthy." With the possibility that Jameson Taillon and Nick Kingham are ready by mid-season to contribute in the manner Cole helped pitch the Pirates into the playoffs in 2013. A half-dozen different general managers have offered the opinion that other than Masahiro Tanaka, A....

It is a situation that leaves Mexico coach Juan Carlos Osorio a bit perplexed because when he takes stock of Chicharito, he thinks of him as a weapon to build El Tri’s attack around, and a player worthy of praise rather than criticism. “We think Javier is one of the best finishers in the world and we think he’s unjustly criticized,” Osorio told reporters at a roundtable interview in Manhattan on Thursday....

Wang reached the semi-finals of the Wuhan Open after being crowned champion in Guangzhou and took just 55 minutes to beat Ostapenko - who was troubled by a wrist injury - 6-0 6-0 on Tuesday. Sabalenka won the biggest title of her career in Wuhan on Saturday and showed no signs of fatigue as she saw off Muguruza 7-5 6-4 with another outstanding performance. Angelique Kerber earlier battled her way past Carla Suarez Navarro 7-6 (7-4) 6-1, while US Open champion Naomi Osaka - who qualified for the WTA Finals for the first time on Monday - thrashed Danielle Collins 6-1 6-0....

This article discusses the types of fractures that are most common with osteoporosis and how to prevent them. What Causes Osteoporosis? Osteoporosis has several different risk factors, based on the following two categories: Primary osteoporosis occurs in those who are postmenopausal and deficient in estrogen. Secondary osteoporosis can be caused by age, certain diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, long-term use of medications like steroids, and lifestyle factors such as smoking....

There are still many features Switch owners would like to see, however. Folders, or “groups” as the interface refers to them, were one such feature. It seems as though Nintendo is either unaware of or is ignoring the desires of its player base, as there are plenty of other features that have been more widely requested than folders. Each of these particular features would enhance the Nintendo Switch’s performance in different ways....

Anatomy Ganglia are groups of nerves, typically with related functions, that meet up inside a capsule of connective tissue. They serve essentially as nerve relay stations, shuttling information back and forth between different parts of the nervous system. The brain contains 12 ganglia on each side, in symmetrical pairs, but they’re generally referred to in the singular. Eight of the cranial nerve ganglia are sensory, while four are parasympathetic, including the:...

Today, that confusion between the realms of nature and choice continues to plague efforts to develop a sensible health-care system. Nowhere is it more evident than in our attitudes toward medicine and mortality. As a health-obsessed society, we do not know what to do with death, other than to try to control it. In all of the debate about health care, virtually no one has confronted this central problem: our determination to prolong life has distorted the mission of American medicine....

The two Warriors stars have helped lead the team to back-to-back NBA championships and both have been instrumental in the team’s 9-1 start to the season. Durant discussed playing with Curry when he met with reporters on Monday. “Our games match. They mix and match on the court,” Durant said. “When Steph is not shooting the ball well, I feel like I can kind of come in and give him some help, and vice versa....

Even his admirers admit that Jean-Bertrand Aristide is difficult to deal with. Haiti’s once and perhaps future leader can be prickly, imperious, vacillating and whiny. After three years of comfortable exile in Washington, the soft-spoken priest still has not lived down the reputation he acquired during his seven months in office: an anti-American demagogue, an unsteady left-wing populist who threatened private enterprise and condoned violence against his political opponents. A moralist on a mission, Aristide is still more a parochial activist than a national leader....

New Delhi, May 15 (PTI) Afghanistan captain Asghar Stanikzai believes the ‘world-class’ spinners in his team will pose a serious challenge to the much-vaunted Indian batting line-up in the historic one-off Test in Bengaluru from June 14. Afghanistan will make their much awaited Test debut at the Chinnaswamy Stadium and Stankizai said the aim is to give a good fight to India, who will be without their regular skipper Virat Kohli....

But even the surliest, most devoted Mitchum fans understand something fundamental: that he, alone among his peers, lived in shadow. Mitchum made it his life’s work to remind us of the world’s darkness. From his great ’40s noir turns in"Out of the Past" and “The Big Steal,” through ’50s rabble-rousing roles like ‘Thunder Road" and"River of No Return," right up to gritty ’70s dramas like “The Friends of Eddie Coyle” and “Farewell, My Lovely,” Mitehum captured shades of cynicism, disillusionment and reserve that have yet to be matched....

“Real luxury,” Lo said, “no work two whole days.” Still not used to such luxury, Lo said she doesn’t know how to use the time, so she often just sits in her favorite chair at home or goes to a second mass at church. And because Sam’s workweek is now 40 hours, instead of the 70 he used to put in, he explained that he has time to attend to his Brooklyn garden–growing Chinese eggplant, “much better than American eggplant,” he insisted....

Then Darren is off to play another game, his dad now watching him regularly at last after all those years of Baker managing in the major leagues and bouncing around the country. He lost his job with Washington after last season, even after the Nationals won a second straight NL East title. It has been a blessing of sorts for Baker. “I haven’t been home to see the hills green in Sacramento here in a long time,” Baker said....

The 28-year-old Cerci will stay in Genoa until the end of the current season, Genoa declared on Friday, reports Xinhua. Atletico Madrid signed him in the summer of 2014, but he moved to AC Milan on loan in the middle of the season. 0 votes

The death toll in China from the disease has risen to 132 and the number of confirmed infections has gone up to 5,700. There have been five cases in the U.S. and others confirmed in over a dozen other countries, according to USA Today. For some Facebook users, the tone of the advertisement by The House on Hood bar in the North Island city of Hamilton, about 70 miles south of Auckland, jarred with the seriousness of the disease, which has put a number of cities in China into lockdown....

Otago Volts have had a rough campaign thus far this season. They are out of reckoning for the final, and are currently fifth in the points table with 15 points. With nothing but pride to play for, they would like to express themselves in the remaining games and go out on a high. Meanwhile, Auckland Aces need to win this game to make it to the last two. They are coming off wins over Canterbury Kings in their last two games....

The scammers offered COVID-19 tests in order to get the Medicare numbers of unsuspecting patients and then charged them for other expensive medical procedures. The billings exceeded $140 million. Chris Schrank, assistant inspector general for investigations with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), said these schemes have “evolved to another level.” “At a time when most Americans pulled together… a small percentage of individuals have decided to steal from programs valuable to those who are most in need,” he said....
