Guest: Jaclyn Tomsic MD DMD FACS https://www.instagram.com/doctorjacci/   Host: Serv Wahan MD DMD https://www.drwahan.com/   Keywords extractions, dental surgery, complications, tooth mobility, dental techniques, patient comfort, dry sockets, anticoagulation, dental tools, oral surgery, Serv Wahan, Jaclyn Tomsic, Dental Influencer, Dental Podcast Summary In this conversation, Dr. Serv Wahan and Dr. Tomsic discuss the intricacies of dental extractions, focusing on techniques, tools, and complications. They explore various approaches to tooth removal, the importance of patient comfort, and the management of complications such as dry sockets and infections. The discussion also touches on the protocols for patients on anticoagulation therapy and the significance of proper communication in dental referrals. Takeaways There's no one way to take teeth out; different techniques work for different practitioners. Mobility of the tooth is crucial before extraction; it helps in the process. Using bite blocks is essential for patient comfort during extractions. Anticoagulation therapy should not be stopped for single tooth extractions. Dry sockets can be managed with specific pastes and follow-up care. Communication with patients about their dental history is vital for successful extractions. Understanding the anatomy of the tooth and surrounding structures is key to successful extractions. Using the right tools and techniques can minimize complications during extractions. Patient education on post-operative care can prevent complications like dry sockets. Experience and adaptability in techniques improve extraction outcomes.  Titles Mastering Dental Extractions: Techniques and Tips Navigating Complications in Tooth Removal Sound bites "You have to have all the sizes."

This week of Deck the Hallmark is presented by Racine Danish Kringles. Exclusive 10% off entire order -  www.kringles.com  // Promo Code:  HALLMARK25---The amazing Dave White joins us to break down this year's animal-themed Hallmark Christmas movie: Christmas at the Catnip Café.ABOUT CHRISTMAS AT THE CATNIP CAFÉOlivia Pierce, a marketing executive, discovers her late great aunt's cat café in New York, which she believes will be a Christmas miracle. As she helps plan fundraising events, Olivia gains a deeper appreciation for the feline inhabitants and the special place her great aunt created.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR CHRISTMAS AT THE CATNIP CAFÉNovember 30, 2025 | Hallmark Movies & MysteriesCAST & CREW OF CHRISTMAS AT THE CATNIP CAFÉPaul Campbell as BenErin Cahill as OliviaBRAN'S CHRISTMAS AT THE CATNIP CAFÉ SYNOPSISThe movie kicks off with a TON of kittens. Suddenly, we flash back 30 years: a young Olivia is walking into her house when she hears something… could it be a cat? And that's it for the flashback—obviously, a necessary flashback.Cut to the present day. Olivia is checking out a place way out of her price range when she gets a text from a lawyer: they need to talk about her aunt's estate. She's been given half of a cat cafe. Olivia's wheels start turning—if she can convince the other owner, Ben, to sell the cafe, maybe she can afford that dream place!But Ben is no ordinary owner. He's an overly generous vet, giving pet care away for free and taking on way too many patients. The good news for Olivia: Ben never says no.She walks into the cafe, plays peekaboo with a cat, and dives straight into business with Ben. She wants him to sell. He's not having it—the cafe is very important to him and also acts as a place to get cats adopted.It turns out Ben lives right down the block from Olivia's aunt's house. He's searching for a binder about Catnip Christmas that's gone missing and is surprised to find Olivia there. She finds the binder, and he explains that Catnip Christmas was his aunt's pride and joy. He's not sure how he can manage it all on his own. Olivia offers to help—but only if he agrees not to delay the sale of the cafe.Ben says he doesn't want to sell. Olivia reminds him he can't stop the sale, only slow it down. She says she'll be all in on the project as long as he agrees to sell. He reluctantly agrees, thinking she won't actually want to move forward with the sale.Olivia quickly realizes she's in for a lot more than she expected: cat puppet shows, story time, and all sorts of festive events. Along the way, Olivia and Ben start getting closer. He even helps decorate her Christmas tree.Through a flashback, we learn that little Olivia once found a kitten outside her aunt's house. Could this cat cafe all stem from that moment?As they spend more time together, Ben opens up about feeling like life's big moments happen for everyone else—babies, milestones—and that he wants something for himself before it's too late. The sparks begin to fly, and while decorating the cafe for an event, Olivia and Ben share a big, sweet kiss.Complications arise when Olivia admits she still plans to sell—the life she has in California can't be ignored. She tells Ben it's hard because she really likes him. He reminds her that they made a deal, so he'll move forward with the sale.On her way out of town, Olivia stops at a mechanic and sees a kitten. The mechanic tells her he adopted it from this cat cafe. Olivia takes it as a sign and rushes back to the cafe—only to find the contract has already been signed with a developer. But the developer is holding a cat, so Olivia asks nicely… and he rips up the contract.Olivia is staying, and the movie ends with her and Ben celebrating—and kissing again.

4/4. The Perilous Return and Legacy of OSIRIS-REx — Dante Lauretta — The sample return capsule executed its descent over the Utah desert with dramatic complications. Critical anxiety ensued when the drogue parachute failed to deploy at the nominal 100,000 feet altitude, invoking memories of the Genesis mission mishap. The primary main parachute deployed successfully at 60,000 feet, confirming mission success and sample integrity. The spacecraft, subsequently rebranded OSIRIS-APEX, is now en route to asteroid Apophis, now under the leadership of Danny Dea Justina, carrying forward Lauretta's legacy of developing emerging scientific leaders and advancing planetary science exploration capabilities.

Fitness feels way more complicated than it needs to be — but most of that complexity is completely unnecessary.In today's episode, we break down the four biggest sources of needless complication in modern fitness culture and reveal the simple principles that will save you time, energy, money, and frustration while helping you make far better progress.We'll cover:

Our conversation picks back up with an article titled “Patient Outcomes and Return to Play After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair in Overhead Athletes.”  This systematic review, published in the January 2023 issue of JOT, analyzed 20 studies comprising 692 patients with an average follow-up of 40 months.  The authors found that arthroscopic cuff repair led to significant improvements in patient reported outcomes as well as improved shoulder elevation. Overall, 75% of athletes returned to play at a mean of 6.4 months post-op, and 63% returned to their preinjury level of sport. Complication and reoperation rates were relatively low at 7% and 10%, respectively. Then, from the December 2019 issue of AJSM, we review an article titled “Partial-Thickness Rotator Cuff Tear by Itself Does Not Cause Shoulder Pain or Muscle Weakness in Baseball Players.”  This cross-sectional study investigated whether articular-sided partial-thickness rotator cuff tears alone produce symptoms in overhead athletes. Of the 87 collegiate baseball players that were analyzed, 47% had ultrasound-confirmed partial-thickness tears, yet rates of shoulder pain and muscle weakness were not significantly different from those without tears. Most of these tears were small (approximately 5 mm in depth) and were asymptomatic in 83%. Pain correlated instead with scapular malposition, dyskinesis, and poor total shoulder condition – not the presence of a tear. We finish up our discussion today with an article titled “Internal impingement of the shoulder in overhead athletes: Retrospective multicenter study in 135 arthroscopically-treated patients.” Patients underwent a variety of procedures, including cuff debridement or repair, posterior glenoidplasty, labral debridement, posterior capsular release, and anterior capsulorrhaphy. Overall, 90% returned to sports, with 52% returning to their prior level at an average of 9 months. Better return-to-sport outcomes were associated with male sex, presence of a cuff lesion, and simple cuff debridement. Greater tuberosity cysts and anterior capsulorrhaphy correlated with poorer outcomes and higher post-op pain. We hope you enjoy this episode!

No Pause! In this episode, we unpack the uncomfortable truth: for a lot of men, showing genuine love to other men still feels… complicated. Society has boxed us into surface-level dap, jokes, and “you good?” check-ins—but real affection? Real vulnerability? That's where things get tricky. We talk honestly about why brotherly love often feels awkward, how we can break out of those old expectations, and what healthy male connection really looks like. From embracing the “unk” title as we get older to navigating broke dates with our wives or significant others, this episode blends humor, self-awareness, and the kind of conversation men rarely get to have out loud. Tune in as the fellas push past the surface and tap into something real.

Episode 207: Understanding Hypertension and Diabetes (Pidjin English)Written by Michael Ozoemena, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.HypertensionSegment 1: What Is Hypertension?HOST:Let's start with the basics. Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of your arteries. Think of it like water running through a garden hose—if the pressure stays too high for too long, that hose starts to wear out.Hypertension, or high blood pressure, means this pressure is consistently elevated. It is measured using two numbers:Systolic: the pressure when the heart beatsDiastolic: the pressure when the heart relaxesNormally reading is around 120/80 mmHg. Hypertension is defined by the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) as 130/80 mmHg or higher.The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) defines hypertension as persistent elevation of systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure, with the diagnostic threshold for office-based measurement set at 140/90 mm Hg or higher.Segment 2: Why Should We Care?HOST:Hypertension is known as “the silent killer” because most people have no symptoms. Even without symptoms, it steadily increases the risk of:Heart attackStrokeKidney diseaseThink of high blood pressure as a constant stress test on your blood vessels. The longer it goes uncontrolled, the higher the chance of complications.Segment 3: What Causes High Blood Pressure?HOST:Hypertension usually doesn't have a single cause. It often results from a combination of genetic factors, lifestyle, and underlying medical conditions.Modifiable FactorsHigh-salt diet and low potassium intakePhysical inactivityTobacco useExcessive alcohol intakeOverweight or obesityChronic stressPoor sleep or sleep apneaNon-Modifiable FactorsFamily history of hypertensionBlack race (higher prevalence and severity)Age over 65Hypertension may also be secondary to other conditions, such as kidney disease, thyroid disorders, adrenal conditions, or medications like NSAIDs or steroids.Segment 4: How Is It Diagnosed?HOST:Diagnosis requires multiple elevated blood pressure readings taken on different occasions. This includes office readings, home blood pressure monitoring, or ambulatory blood pressure monitoring.If you haven't had your blood pressure checked recently, this is your reminder. It's simple—and it could save your life.Segment 5: Treatment and ManagementHOST:Lifestyle changes are often the first line of treatment:Reduce salt intakeEat more fruits, vegetables, and whole grainsAim for 150 minutes of moderate exercise per weekManage stressMaintain a healthy weightGet enough sleepLimit alcoholQuit smokingIf these steps aren't enough, medications may be necessary. These include:Diuretics, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, Calcium channel blockers, Beta-blockersYour healthcare provider will choose the best medication based on your health profile.Segment 6: What You Can Do TodayHOST:Here are three simple, actionable steps you can take right now:Check your blood pressure—at a clinic, pharmacy, or at home.Pay attention to your salt intake—much of it is hidden in processed foods.Move more—even a 20-minute daily walk can help reduce blood pressure over time.Small steps can lead to big, lasting improvements.SummaryHypertension may be silent but understanding it gives you power. Early action can add healthy years to your life. Take charge of your blood pressure today.Diabetes1. Wetin Diabetes Be and Wetin E Go Do to Person Body?Q: Wetin diabetes mean?A: Diabetes na sickness wey make sugar (glucose) for person blood too high.

What is the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes? Diabetes affects more than 300,000 people in New Zealand and costs the country $2.1 billion a year in health costs (0.67% of GDP!). It occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin to control blood sugar. Type 1: Usually begins in younger people; an autoimmune reaction destroys the pancreas so it can't make insulin. Type 2: More common with age; the pancreas wears out over time and doesn't produce enough insulin. What is happening with Type 2 diabetes in New Zealand? Over 250,000 New Zealanders have Type 2 diabetes, previously seen mostly in people over 50. Over the past 25 years, it is increasingly occurring in younger people – even those in their early teens and children. It's particularly effecting Māori, Pasifika, and Asian young people; this pattern was not seen 30 years ago. This is a new and concerning trend. Why is this occurring? The exact cause is unclear, but it is seen worldwide, especially in Indigenous populations. It is complex – caused by more than just lifestyle. Likely involves genetics, strong family history, maternal diabetes in pregnancy, and some lifestyle factors. More research is needed. Why should we be worried? Early-onset Type 2 diabetes seems to have a more aggressive course. Complications such as kidney disease, heart disease, and strokes occur earlier. It's a significant cost to the health system, and an even greater cost to patients, whānau, and communities. What can we do about it? Improve awareness and education. Provide strong wrap-around support for young people with diabetes. Know the symptoms and see your GP – weight loss, tiredness, frequent urination, and excessive thirst. Remember: diabetes can occur at any age. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this solo episode, Darin Olien explores one of the most overlooked yet revealing health topics: the truth about wisdom teeth.

Publication: Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2020; CD003879 Key Finding: There is insufficient evidence to support or refute the routine removal of asymptomatic impacted wisdom teeth, and no eligible studies reported on the effects of removal on health-related quality of life. Public Health Critique on Prophylactic Extraction Study Title: The Prophylactic Extraction of Third Molars: A Public Health Hazard Author: Jay W. Friedman, DDS, MPH Publication: American Journal of Public Health (AJPH), 2007; 97(9):1554–1559 Key Finding: Approximately two-thirds of extractions may be unnecessary, calling mass extraction a "silent epidemic of iatrogenic injury." M3BE Study Study Title: Prophylactic vs. symptomatic third molar removal: effects on patient postoperative morbidity Key Finding: Older patients are more at risk for complications (such as nerve injury and persistent pain), confirming that removal has real consequences. Clinical Guidelines (AAOMS) Source: American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) Title: Third Molar Surgical Guidelines Key Finding: Identifies Pericoronitis as one of the most common indications for surgical removal. Pathology Studies (Cysts/Tumors) Subject: Odontogenic cysts associated with impacted third molars Key Finding: While rare, cysts can erode jawbone and damage neighboring teeth, making this a valid medical reason for removal. Retrospective Complications Study Study Title: Retrospective Oman study: Complications of Third Molar Extraction Key Finding: Referenced in the context of risks and complications associated with extraction.

REDIFF - Jean-Baptiste Méric est cancérologue au Centre hospitalier de Bligny (Essonne). Il reçoit un jour en consultation une patiente opérée avec succès d'un cancer du sein. Sa convalescence devrait bien se passer et pourtant, dès qu'il l'aperçoit dans la salle d'attente de l'hôpital, il comprend tout de suite "que ça ne va pas." Elle est vêtue d'un jogging informe et garde ses lunettes de soleil. Elle semble très abattue, marche très lentement. "Elle n'y croit pas", se dit alors le cancérologue. Diffusée à quelques jours de la journée mondiale de lutte contre le cancer, l'histoire de cette patiente illustre bien les défis de l'oncologie aujourd'hui. 20 à 25% des femmes atteintes d'un cancer du sein interrompent aujourd'hui leur traitement par hormonothérapie, au risque de récidiver.

Let's open the Scriptures together and rekindle our hearts by the fires of God's love. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Let's not make it difficult. That's the heartbeat from today's reading, echoing from the council at Jerusalem and resounding in the gospel itself. James spoke those words in Acts: let's not make it difficult for people to come to God. And yet, so often, our human nature, our systems, our religions, much like those early believers who wanted to add circumcision to the requirements of faith, try to put hurdles in the way. The question was, Who is in and who is out? Is it by human effort, tradition, or ritual? Is there some check box, some work or procedure, some pedigree that makes us right with God? But if we're not careful, the simple invitation of Christ becomes a complicated checklist. The apostles—Paul, Peter, James—they recognized how quickly we can move from freedom into burdens. But the truth, straight from the heart of God, is that nothing stands in the way of experiencing His love through Christ. God's life, His gracious gift, offered to all—Jew and Gentile, man and woman, young and old—is received by faith alone, not by effort, not by merit, not by works, not by anything we can add. The letter that went out from Jerusalem is a letter for us, too. It's a call back to simplicity, to childlike trust. “He made no distinction between us and them, for He cleansed their hearts through faith. We believe that we are all saved the same way, by the undeserved grace of the Lord Jesus.” That's the message. Don't let your heart or religion complicate what Christ has made simple. Even the things we cling to as saviors—our rules, our observance—cannot save us. Lay them down. Receive the gift: the righteousness that comes by faith in the finished work of Christ. Put away the extra burdens, the additions, the anxiety of performance. Trust Him. Rest in His love. Walk in the gift that's been given to you—full acceptance, full forgiveness, full belonging—in Christ alone. Live in the sufficiency of God's life in you, today and every day. That's a prayer I have for my own soul. It's the prayer I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL

Host: Cindy Allen Published: October 17, 2025 Length: ~11 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center This week, Cindy Allen — the Taylor Swift of Trade — opens with the song "Wish List" from Taylor's latest album to frame a candid look at the current landscape for international trade professionals. Cindy launches with a snapshot of the ongoing U.S. government shutdown and its impacts on trade facilitation, CBP operations, and agency holds, noting which agencies are coping and where the pain points are starting to show. She also discusses the latest on vessel and container fees targeting China-linked shipping, and the rollout of new environmental "green fee" proposals gaining traction with international regulators. Cindy moves on to cover major industry developments, from continued Section 232 duty adjustments on pharmaceuticals and heightened scrutiny on origin-specific duties, to the broader market response as recent tensions with China appear to cool—at least for now. Wrapping up, Cindy connects this week's trade turbulence to the themes in “Wish List”—emphasizing the profession's desire for a return to routine and the growing “Make Trade Boring Again” movement among customs brokers. What You'll Learn in This Episode: U.S. government shutdown: Trade impact and operational status by agency Week three status update on CBP, FDA, CPSC, USDA, and smaller agencies How agency holds and exams are affecting shipments New vessel/container fees and carrier rerouting after China-related restrictions October 14 implementation and compliance guidance for carriers Cost impact—and what's (not yet) being passed on to importers Section 232 pharma update and reciprocal duty challenges Delayed new tariffs for pharmaceuticals and incentives to manufacture in the U.S. Complications for brokers: layering, exemptions, and compliance tools China trade relations and tariff risk Why the threatened 100% duty on Chinese goods for November 1 is unlikely Market reaction to de-escalation signals New “green fee” proposals and the U.S. response IMO, WTO, and WCO push for environmental surcharges President Trump's stance and potential U.S. actions Customs brokerage in the spotlight How recent media coverage has changed the industry The call to “Make Trade Boring Again”—and why that's on Cindy's wish list Key Takeaways: The shutdown has yet to cause a major breakdown in trade flows, but agency-specific disruptions are mounting. Vessel/container fees are being absorbed through creative routing—importers haven't seen extra charges, but the future is uncertain. Section 232 duties remain a compliance headache, especially with new exemption and layering rules. Signs of a U.S.–China trade thaw this week bring relief and market stability, halting expectations of major new tariffs. Trade professionals everywhere are wishing for normalcy: less drama, fewer surprises, and a return to boring, reliable compliance work.
