Running-Related Foot Pain Treatment in NYC
What are the most common conditions experienced by runners?
From foot pain to ankle pain, if you are a runner, you may already know that not every run is a walk in the park. Although running can help you meet your cardio needs, improve your leg and lung strength, and help reduce stress, it is also a high-impact sport that can put damaging levels of stress on your joints. As time goes on, the added stress can lead to certain conditions associated with running. Some of the most common running-related foot and ankle conditions include:
Achilles tendonitis
Achilles tendonitis occurs when the Achilles tendon — located at the back of your leg — is overstressed and becomes inflamed. Achilles tendonitis can occur if you intensify your training too soon, or if your calves are weak. Symptoms of Achilles tendonitis may include:
- Aching or stiffness of your Achilles tendon, usually in the morning
- Pain in the back of your heel that intensifies with physical activity
- Thickening of your Achilles tendon
- Affected area is swollen with the swelling increasing as the day goes on
- Bone spurs
Plantar fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis occurs when the shock-absorbing tissue in your foot, called plantar fascia, becomes inflamed due to frequent stress or tension placed on your feet. You may be more prone to plantar fasciitis if you have certain foot traits, such as a high or low arch. You may also be more likely to develop plantar fasciitis if your feet roll inward or outward more frequently than normal. Symptoms of plantar fasciitis include:
- A shooting pain in your heel that usually starts in the morning
- Heel pain after standing for an extended period of time or after exercising
Shin splints
Shin splints occur when the muscles, bone tissue, or tendons surrounding your shinbone become inflamed due to excessive or frequent stress. Changing your running routine or increasing the intensity of your runs without proper training can lead to shin splints. Having certain foot characteristics or not wearing proper footwear while running can also increase your risk of developing shin splints. Symptoms of shin splints may include:
- Aching pain in your shinbone
- Pain in the shinbone while you run or after you run
- Pain that increases when the affected area is touched
In addition to the above conditions, running may also result in certain foot and ankle injuries, such as fractures and sprains.
How are running-related conditions treated?
From conservative treatment options to certain surgical treatment options, there are an array of options to help alleviate your pain and get you back on your feet. Depending on your condition, treatment options may include:
- Resting
- Icing the affected area
- Wearing compression bandages
- Wearing proper footwear
- Foot and ankle strengthening exercises
- Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicines
- Physical therapy
- Cortisone injections
- Certain procedures

It was hardly vintage Liverpool, with Brighton fresh from their victory over Manchester United last week, well-organised at the back and frequently frustrating Juergen Klopp's front three.
But it was the kind of hard-fought three points that Liverpool will need to pick up throughout this season if they are to mount a real challenge to Manchester City in the title race.
Klopp said he had little interest in the league table at this early stage but was pleased with the 1-0 victory.
"Nine points after three games, there's never anything negative about that. But if you watch the games, you will see we have a lot of work to do," said the German.
Liverpool made a strong start, and Brighton's Australian keeper Mathew Ryan did well to keep out a Roberto Firmino header before Trent Alexander-Arnold rattled the crossbar with a 15th-minute free kick.
The breakthrough came when James Milner robbed Yves Bissouma as Brighton tried to play the ball out from the back and a quick exchange of passes from Sadio Mane and Firmino ended with a clinical finish from Salah, last season's top scorer with 32 league goals.
With Georginio Wijnaldum dominant in central midfield, left-back Andy Robertson charging down the left and Salah buzzing around, Liverpool looked capable of ripping Brighton apart.
But it never quite happened.
Brighton kept a disciplined formation, frustrating Liverpool and as the second half wore on the home side began to lose their fluency.
Brighton's efforts were mainly rearguard and apart from a creating little until a Pascal Gross header in the 88th minute forced a good save out of Liverpool keeper Alisson Becker.
Alisson also showed another side of his game, coming off his line to meet a back-pass under pressure from Anthony Knockaert, chipping it over the Brighton winger and laying off a pass to Virgil van Dijk.
It was a moment that the Anfield crowd loved, roaring their appreciation, although a later piece of footwork from the Brazilian almost got him in trouble and his manager was not too impressed with the chip.
"For sure I need to get used to it... The little chip he did was quite exciting. I don't need that. But I have never had a Brazilian goalkeeper before so maybe I have to get used to that too," said Klopp, who added he as more impressed with the save from Gross that secured the three points and an early taste of the Premier League summit.

Don't be intimidated when asked.
With increasing frequency, the quality and cost of healthcare is debated with concern that both cannot be sustained at current levels. It is not surprising to anyone that a reengineering of our healthcare system is required to affect a meaningful change; and, that change will not be effective nor meaningful if the discussion fails to encompass all stakeholders, and that includes me and you regardless of on which sided of the healthcare equation we fit.
Healthcare reform will never be a one size fits all solution; the agreement of what healthcare should be after reform is not supported with common expectations. Providers struggle in pursuit of alternative means to deliver less expensive patient care while reductions in payment threaten to erode quality and reduce availability of services.
The cost-quality issue must be in balance to assure access in any healthcare delivery venue. This is the basis for most transformation discussions. The necessity to examine and evaluate all evidence to support proposed solutions is paramount. So far the approach has been predominately cost focused and will continue, but the quality side of the equation must be considered to impact healthcare value. Assessment and analysis will raise the discussion to effective and efficient with cause and effect demonstration.
Providers in the inpatient rehabilitation business certainly stand to feel this scrutiny as performance and quality measures become mandated for payment. Currently quality is not defined for hospitals providing inpatient rehabilitation (IRFs and IRUs.) In the absence of standard quality definition and measures the perceptions of quality varies across the post acute continuum. Loosely defined expectations of quality opens the door to varied perceptions of what is acceptable care, especially when describing which hospital is best.
And finally, what should this all mean to the doctors, nurses and therapists who spend the majority of their efforts addressing patient problems in attempt to heal and restore what has been injured? Knowing ones effectiveness should not be minimized, it is the basis for all improvement. When asked, a clinician must not cower or shy away from the question. Instead, be prepared with valid response to satisfy and convince whoever asked. The response must be thought through and previously considered to demonstrate the professional's commitment to self assessment of their professional role. "How effective am I and how could I improve?" is the first step to transforming healthcare with personal accountability and attention given to the effectiveness-efficiency issues of care delivery.

Hide Forgot
In zsh RPM /etc/zprofile has the following lines:
# source profile
if [ -f /etc/profile ]; then
source /etc/profile
/etc/profile in turns sources all .sh files under /etc/profile.d. If such a file
contains an sh compatible if-evaluation, zsh initialization fails because zsh is
not in sh-compatible mode:
if [ "$VAR" == "VAL" ]
The error printed is:
/etc/profile.d/test.sh:5: = not found
This probably should be fixed in /etc/zprofile by using this:
load-sh-profile() {
emulate -L sh
. /etc/profile
Reference to a thread in zsh-users:
(The problem for zsh is "==", it is expecting "=".)
Also /etc/zshrc has something similar.
Oh, crap.. /etc/zshrc MUST NOT source /etc/profile or /etc/profile.d/*.sh - if
so, they will override user settings in ~/.zprofile!
Please consult zsh mailing lists if in doubt but the current behaviour is simply
FWIW, my suggestion to fix this is that change /etc/zprofile as shown in comment
1 and remove these lines from /etc/zshrc:
# from bashrc
if [ "x$SHLVL" != "x1" ]; then # We're not a login shell
for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do
if [ -r "$i" ]; then
. $i
unset i
Ignore comment 3 as I opened a new bug for that case, see Bug 226344. Thanks.
Can we keep all this zsh incompatibility stuff in this bug, please? If you need
reopen, change something or anything you cannot do (I have no idea why you were
not able to reopen it, because reporter should be always able to reopen her own
bug), just make a comment here, and I will fix it.
All these bugs are really confusing to me, and I am not sure what the problems
are now. Could you, please, upgrade your zsh to the last version (it is
zsh-4.2.6-1 here) and restate what in your opinion is wrong with our default
Thank you very much.
Ok, sorry for the noise. I'll list the two issues below. (I was not reporter of
those other reports so I could not change their status, but for this bug I can.)
Anyway, with zsh-4.2.6-1 there are two issues with zsh init scripts:
1) /etc/profile is sourced from /etc/zprofile, this is correct. For some reason
sourcing of /etc/profile.d/*.sh was also added to /etc/zshrc, which is wrong
since those get sourced always via /etc/profile. This prevents user to override
any settings inherited from /etc/profile in her ~/.zprofile. Files /etc/zshrc
and ~/.zshrc are for aliases, functions, completion control, etc, not for
general environment variables, those should be in /etc/zprofile and ~/.zprofile
in most cases. zshall man page has details about the order how these init
scripts are processed.
So to fix this, just remove the duplicate lines from /etc/zshrc (starting with
"from bashrc" comment. I can't see any problems doing this.
2) The other is related to sourcing the file /etc/profile which should be a sh
compatible scripts, as well as scripts under /etc/profile.d. zsh is not set into
sh compatible mode before sourcing /etc/profile so some scripts that are sourced
correctly with bash fail with zsh. An example of such a case was in comment 1.
The fix was mentioned also above, in /etc/zprofile, replace current sourcing with:
load-sh-profile () {
emulate -L sh
. /etc/profile
This sets zsh into sh compatible mode, sources /etc/profile, and restores shell
related options afterwards since this is done within a function. More about
"emulate" and its options can be found from zshall man page.
Thanks a lot.
Any progress with this one? Or do you need some more details? I'll happily
provide any additional information. Bug 126539 is related but I think comment 6
summarizes the current situation with zsh init scripts pretty well.
*** Bug 126539 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
This problem still exists in new zsh-4.3.4 package. Please consider fixing.
Comment 6 best describes what is the problem.
This bug is now about two things, is messy in content, and partly a duplicate of
Bug 430665 which is now closed (although its resolution is not agreed by
everyone). I'll close this one as a duplicate of Bug 430665 and open a new one
after Fedora 9 is out and the dust has settled.
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 430665 ***

Good news, people! Scientists have discovered that "the Yellowstone super-volcano is a little less super than previously thought". Bad news, people! The Yellowstone super-volcano is "more active than previously thought". So it's closer than you think.
According to the the researchers from Washington State University and the Scottish Universities Environmental Research Centre, the next eruption may not wipe out half of the United States, covering the other half in a metre of ash — according to a previous study from the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters — and pushing the world into hundreds of years of nuclear winter, challenging human civilisation to a game of death and survival.
But on the other hand, as Ben Ellis — co-author and post-doctoral researcher at Washington State University's School of the Environment — says, "the Yellowstone volcano's previous behaviour is the best guide of what it will do in the future. This research suggests explosive volcanism from Yellowstone is more frequent than previously thought."
Multiple eruptions
Their new research shows that what scientists thought was Yellowstone's biggest eruption, the origin of the the two-million-year-old Huckleberry Ridge deposit, was actually two eruptions 6000 years apart from each other. They used a new high-precision argon isotope dating technique to find this difference. This technology, says co-author Darren Mark, is "like getting a sharper lens on a camera. It allows us to see the world more clearly."
The result is that the first eruption that created Huckleberry Ridge was "only" 2200 cubic kilometres, roughly 12 per cent less than what geologists thought. Then a second eruption happened 6000 years later, adding the remaining 290 cubic kilometres.
For comparison, Mount St Helens produced one cubic kilometre of ash in its 1980 eruption. And the latest comparable eruption registered in the United States were the 116 cubic kilometres of ash produced by Mount Mazama in Oregon, 6850 years ago.
Somehow, the idea of the Yellowstone super-volcano eruption being 12 per cent less powerful than previously thought but more frequent doesn't make me feel much better.

Florida in the Civil War? Believe it!
January 13, 2019 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm| Free
The Lightner Museum and the Florida Humanities Council are thrilled to welcome The Palm Beach Post reporter, Eliot Kleinberg, as part of the Florida Humanities Speaker Series. Mr. Kleinberg will discuss how Florida played a far more strategic role in the Civil War than most history books let on. While Florida might be the most "northern" southern state now, it was the the third to secede, and very significant during the war. Learn about Florida's role in the blockade, its critical battles, the tragedy of its governor, and the veterans who founded many Florida cities, and how some people are still fighting the war. As well, find out why the war is the reason Florida has 21 million people!
Mr. Kleinberg, born in South Florida, has spent nearly four decades as a reporter, including more than a quarter-century at The Palm Beach Post, featuring his weekly local history column, "Post Time".
As of 1.9.19, this event has sold out. Be sure to register early for our other events in the Speaker Series.
This program is sponsored by the Florida Humanities Council with funds from the Florida Department State, Division of Cultural Affairs and the Florida Council on Arts and Culture. Also supported by The Historic Inns of St. Augustine and St. Johns County Tourist Development Council.

How wonderful to have National Scrapbook Day and Mothers' Day fall on the same weekend! I've been wanting to design a scrapbook about my mom since she passed away several years ago. I know it would be extremely healing for me, and perhaps now the time is right for me to tackle that project.
Today I am re-posting a couple of layouts from my family's Heritage Album in which I attempted to capture the essence of my mom, Edith. I found it therapeutic just to rifle through the numerous photos of her to choose the ones that most reflected who she was at different stages of her life.
Growing up as an only child in a broken home, she dedicated herself to her marriage and her four children...determined to give her family many of the gifts and stability she lacked in her own childhood. She chose a hard-working, dependable, very handsome, country-boy-turned-engineer, Peter, to create her family with.
She was most proud of keeping a clean, well-run household and well-groomed, well-dressed children, as evident in this family portrait -taken shortly before our lives were altered forever by the political events of the time -mainly the failed Hungarian Revolution of 1956.
I still marvel at my mom's courage as she agreed to leave behind her homeland, her parents, her friends, and all her earthly possessions to seek a life of freedom for her children. Amazingly, through it all, my mom managed to lead her brood from refugee camps to a fruitful life in America, the country she fell in love with mostly through Hollywood movies.
Before, she passed away in February of 2003, she created a wonderful life for herself, active in local women's clubs and church organizations, staying in touch with a multitude of friends all over the world, and traveling to her heart's content. She had her challenges, and was far from perfect, but she raised her children well and loved her eight grand-children deeply...and undoubtedly, she was always well-meaning and did her best.
In honor of Mothers' Day, I thank you and I salute you, Anyu!
Wishing moms, teachers, and childcare providers everywhere a happy and restful Mothers' Day, Enikö

Government and the four unions involved in health care have reached an agreement today, March 13.
"Health-care unions have worked with us to reach this important agreement, and I thank them for their willingness to come to the table," said Premier Stephen McNeil.
Four councils of unions will be established to bargain on behalf of each bargaining unit — nursing, health care, support and administrative professionals.
All unionized health-care workers will remain members of their existing unions, and pay dues to those unions as they do now.
Each of the four unions will lead one bargaining process, as follows:
— Nursing (registered nurses and licensed practical nurses): Nova Scotia Nurses' Union
— Health care: Nova Scotia Government and General Employees' Union
— Support: Unifor
— Administrative professionals (formerly clerical): CUPE
This agreement will streamline the number of bargaining processes significantly, from 50 to four. Having one union leading negotiations for each of the four bargaining units ensures clarity for employers during the negotiation process.
Each of the existing unions will continue to represent their members. This agreement means there will be no runoff votes.
"We've asked the Nova Scotia Health Authority and the IWK Health Centre to create meaningful change in the way we deliver health care in this province. This agreement will allow them to focus on that important goal," said Health and Wellness Minister Leo Glavine.
Arbitrator James Dorsey's previous decisions on the composition of the four bargaining units, seniority, and other underlying issues will stand. Existing collective bargaining agreements will remain in place until new ones are negotiated.
Because unions and government have reached an agreement on representation, Mr. Dorsey's decisions on which union will represent health-care and support workers will not apply.
Government will introduce legislation sometime in the spring sitting to formalize this agreement.

Athleisure is one of the best women's clothing niches for sellers in 2019.
When choosing a target audience for this seamless bra, you can reach women in various ways. You might experience with different age groups and types of fitness activity. For example, you might try "running," "yoga," "zumba," "crossfit," and other various fitness niches to find the ideal target audience for your product.
Consider your target market when deciding on a niche for your fitness clothing store. For example, do you want to target a general fitness audience or do you want to zero in on a specific niche so you can better cater your marketing to that audience?
You can always expand your niche to serve a bigger audience overtime. But entering the dropshipping market with a specific focus allows you to build an early audience easily.
Sometimes the most popular women's clothing isn't flashy, but comfy. And boy does this lambswool coat look and feel comfy! This is a great women's clothing product to sell in the cold winter months. It's one of the fastest growing women's fashion clothes too.
This product has been purchased over 1200 times in the last 30 days. It comes in 9 colors from red to army green. It's also available in sizes S to 3XL allowing you to sell these items to women of all sizes.
Want to bundle up more women in trendy clothes like this coat? Reach out to influencers on Instagram, such as fashion bloggers who have massive audiences. Offer them compensation to take a picture wearing your product and tag your brand in the post.
Customers will likely post comments like "I need this" or "I want this" in the post's comment section.
Reply to their comments or send them a DM to let them know your store carries it in case they don't automatically check your brand's brand page. On the day the influencer posts about your dropshipping store, change the URL in your bio to that exact product page so that customers clicking your Instagram bio link find the exact product quickly.
Women's clothing like this oversized sweater proves that even practical sweaters can be considered trendy clothes. This long-sleeved pullover is oversized meaning that you can add extra layers underneath for the colder months.
It comes in five different fashionable colors including brown, red, beige, black and white. There have been hundreds of orders on this single sweater in the past 30 days, and thousands in the past six months.
The way to attract more customers to this oversized sweater is by creating ads on Instagram and Facebook. You'll need to test out a variety of targeting options. Since you're selling sweaters, you'll likely want to target countries that are currently having colder, winter weather.
For example, in January, Canada and northern states have colder, harsher climates. However, a country like Australia is having their summer during the same month. Be sure to keep that in mind when marketing your products.
With the right coat, any woman can look chic with little effort. This thin coat may be used for winter or spring/autumn months depending on how cold it gets. For example, this isn't the ideal coat for the traditional Canadian winter.
However, it may be just what you need during a spring or autumn day.
This coat, like many fashion items, is an impulse buy as you might search for the product but ultimately buy it based on its appearance. This coat comes in four different colors: black, brown, gray and dark gray. And has amassed nearly 1,000 orders over the past month proving its popularity.
Bundle up your customers with this chic coat by reaching out to influencers during peak coat season. For example, you might reach out to fashion bloggers with big Instagram followings.
Ask that influencer wear the coat, take pictures, share those pictures with their audience and then tag you. Like this, you'll be able to attract some sales to your store.
If you're looking to minimize your risk, you can offer an affiliate link instead of compensation, so that the influencer gets paid per sale. You'll get more rejections from influencers this way. However, it lowers your overall risk as you only pay influencers when they bring you a sale.
Whether a woman's just given birth or has put on a couple extra pounds, she may feel uncomfortable with the appearance of her stomach. As a result, she turns to a product like shapewear to help create a better figure.
Wearing shapewear underneath clothing helps tighten the appearance of your tummy and helps create a slimming silhouette. According to Google Trends, "shapewear" searches have been climbing for a couple of years now.
Direct women towards this shapewear by targeting Facebook ads towards women who are classified as "New Parents". By doing this, you'll find women who may feel self-conscious about their midsection after birth.
This can help them fit into their clothing without buying a new wardrobe or spending hours at the gym.
Some fashion trends, like this ponytail beanie hat, come up so quickly that if you blink you may miss out on sales.
If you're looking to find a clear-cut winning product, this beanie is the perfect item to stock. Unlike most beanies, this hat allows you to wear a ponytail with it – and this slight alteration results in big sales.
Peak season for this product will be in the winter months, so target this product towards customers in the southern hemisphere from May to August, and towards customers in the northern hemisphere from September onwards. This hat comes in 20 different colors so your customers will have plenty of options to choose from.
You can promote this beanie a number of ways. For example, you can create ads on Facebook and Instagram, as it's an impulse product.
Another smart strategy would be to reach out to fashion bloggers and have them share the product on their blog or social media channels. Additionally, you can ask influencers to post product photos of them modeling the beanies so that customers can see what the beanie hat looks like when worn.
One of the biggest women's fashion trends of late 2018 and early 2019 is color blocking. This trend can be found in many garments, from t-shirts to sweaters to even jewelry. The design consists of blocks of colors or patterns within a piece of clothing as part of design.
The simplicity of color blocking makes it perfect for everyday wear.
Just take a quick look at this Google Trends data, which shows that search volume for "color block top" has been increasing steadily for the past five years. But remember, this fashion trend isn't limited to sweaters so don't forget to add other women's clothing items that match this pattern.
Since this is a popular fashion trend, the easiest way to give it attention on your store is to create a category of trends in your website's top navigation. Some retailers like Suzy Shier add a section called "Trends" which includes a list of the top trends of the current season. That way, if customers are looking to shop the latest trends they can see which collections you have.
The cool thing about this is that if customers love a specific trend like say color block, they may buy multiple products within the same style which will help you increase your average order value. Plus, over time, you might start ranking for the trend in search results since you're constantly adding or removing products from within that collection.
With over 360,000 monthly searches for "leather jacket", it's pretty safe to say that this evergreen fashion trend is one that you can count on being popular in 2019 and years to come. For this section, we're going to share two leather jacket styles that you can sell on your store in spring 2019.
This red leather jacket has had just over 100 sales in the past 30 days – a sure sign that people's interest in this spring jacket is picking up. It also comes in four other colors: black, pink, sky blue and red giving your customers a pretty decent choice selection to choose from.
This motorcycle jacket is also another popular leather jacket to sell on your store. It's had over 4200 sales in the past six months. It comes in a few different colors. Help your customers add an edge to their look by promoting these leather jackets on your store.
A great way to promote them would be to reach out to influencers. The jacket style is attention-grabbing, especially the vibrant red jacket.
If customers see influencers wearing the jacket, they're more likely to envision themselves wearing it. You can create ads using the influencer's photos, as long as you've got their permission, and you can use their influence to help sell more of them on your store.
You can also try working on an SEO strategy by creating content about leather jackets on your store's blog. Keep in mind that you'll need to devote a few months to this practice so be sure to start a few months before the spring and autumn seasons arrive.
Nothing says spring and summer 2019 better than floral patterns taking over your wardrobe. Fortunately, there's a never-ending selection of floral women's clothing on Oberlo.
You can stock up your store with products like this floral spring jacket which has had over 100 orders in the past month or this floral skirt which also shows a lot of potential.
And of course, you can also sell floral dresses, bathing suits, and other women's clothing items with a floral pattern. Google Trends shows that between March and July search volume is at its highest for the keyword "floral clothing" so that would be the best time of year to sell women's clothing with floral patterns.
You can create Facebook and Instagram ads targeting women in their twenties and thirties to help promote your floral apparel. Create ads that lead directly to the product page of the product you're selling (the one in your picture) so that customers can find the exact product with ease.
You might end up adding a floral section under a Trends collection for the spring and summer seasons that customers can browse as well. You could also add recommend products that feature a floral pattern for customers to see the other designs as well.
By the time most people figure out fashion trends, there's so much competition that they just don't stand a chance next to big box retailers. Fortunately, this trend is still so early that it currently has less than 1,000 monthly searches for the "padded swimwear" keyword.
Peak season for these searches come between May and July. Google Trends shows that there's a slight growth with each season. And considering how influential influencers can be at making a trend happen, it's only a matter of time this keyword really takes off.
New stores selling swimwear or beach products will want to create a collection targeting the "padded swimwear" or "padded swimsuits" keywords to get a jump start on this product before others start catching on.
In the past 30 days, there've been over 250 orders for this specific padded bikini set. So, what's the easiest way to make this fashion trend take off?
Start with influencers who post a lot of beach photos. Reach out to several influencers on Instagram and have them change the link to your padded bikini set product in their bio. The secret is to get them to add a UTM tag so you'll know exactly which influencer is bringing you sales so you know whether to work with them in the future or not.
By reaching out to several influencers with engaged followers, you can increase the odds of driving sales back to your website. You can also have a retargeting ad running on your store so in case customers don't buy the first time, you can win them back with your ad.
Chiara and Gloria Piscedda, Fashion Designers of ChiGlo, says "We think that long and tiered dresses – an expression of romanticism and femininity – will remain a huge trend for 2019. We also predict that pure all-white outfits, which effortlessly make sophistication come alive, as well as the blazer, an element that adds character and is capable of transforming every look, will be very popular go-to choices in the upcoming season."
Heather Loduca, fashion stylist and personal shopper, says "BEIGE is the biggest colour, and wearing full monochromatic outfits with the colour is how to execute this trend. Soft suiting (matching pants and jacket with a loose almost athleisure fit) is huge and can be worn traditionally with a dress shirt or more modernly with a crop top pr sports bra underneath. Finally, the 'Wet Suit' is a big one this year. Bodysuits, shorts and fitted crop tops in "scuba material" are being worn with regular day wear such as jeans, tee shirts and hoodies. We're mostly seeing these pieces in bright neons and primary colors."
Naomi Ellis, Professor of Fashion at Arizona State University, says "2019 is going to be all about shorts, short shorts and bike shorts that is. Top influencers and celebs are wearing them everywhere. Even Chanel's Spring runway show paired bike shorts with blazers for a more chic look. However, if bike shorts just aren't for you, short shorts, renamed mini shorts, are also making their way back to us for 2019."
Beata Hajde, Co-Founder and Chief Editor at Give Me a Bag, shares "Fashion always seeps into bag designs, and I've been seeing a few notable patterns during our reviews. I think 2019 will be the year of bold and colorful styles. One of the most chic style will be 'loud leopard' print on everything: think pairing a leopard printed coat with leopard printed shoes and bags and you already get the idea. If you want to choose more of a low-key style, neon and lavender colors are definitely the way to go. If you want a more feminine look, you'll love coats and blouses with puffed shoulders. Then again, if you want to go wild, I think the neo-gothic style will return with it's dark and moody vibes to shake the world in 2019."

Varicose veins: You could prevent these unsightly bulges by doing this
VARICOSE veins treatment normally involves surgery or a procedure where needles are inserted into the protruding blood vessel. Compression stockings are also used to improve circulation and stop the veins getting worse. You could prevent varicose veins by doing one particular thing regularly - solving symptoms which include pain and itching.
- Varicose veins treatment can be painful and sometimes involves surgery
- The veins can be caused by problems with valves in veins, causing blood to flow backwards
- You could prevent the condition by walking more regularly
Varicose veins are protruding blood vessels that can cause itchiness and pain.
Treatment usually involves surgical procedures where needles are inserted into affected blood vessels.
However, there are steps you can take to prevent the condition.
Professor Mark Whiteley, a venous surgeon, told Express.co.uk that taking exercise will help prevent varicose veins.
Varicose veins are expected to affect as much as 30 per cent of the adult population, and Professor Whiteley warns they could strike at any time.
To keep your leg muscles in working form, try not to sit in the same position for long periods and go for walks regularly.
"Lifestyle changes will not stop you from developing varicose veins," he said, "but there are a few measures that can be taken to help you suppress their development.
"For example, when you sit for extended periods, the muscles in your legs that normally help pump blood aren't used very much.
"As a result, in patients with varicose veins or hidden varicose veins, the blood falls backwards down the leg veins.
"It can then pool in the lower leg, increasing swelling and the risk of making varicose veins even worse.
"To keep your leg muscles in working form, try not to sit in the same position for long periods and go for walks regularly."
Varicose veins: You could prevent the condition by doing exercise regularly, such as walking
The NHS says that varicose veins are "usually caused by weak vein walls and valves".
"Inside your veins are tiny one-way valves that open to let the blood through, and then close to prevent it flowing backwards," they said.
"Sometimes the walls of the veins become stretched and lose their elasticity, causing the valves to weaken.
"If these don't function properly, this can cause the blood to leak and flow backwards, collecting in your veins which become swollen and enlarged, causing varicose veins."
You are more at risk of the condition if you are female, overweight, have a job involving long periods of standing or have a close family member with the condition.
Treatment for the lumps often starts with compression stockings, which squeeze your legs to help blood flow.
However, Professor Whiteley said, "although these stockings may relieve the pain and swelling, as soon as you remove the stockings the veins will return, as they do nothing to correct the underlying problems".
Surgery to get rid of varicose veins includes endogenous laser ablation, which destroys veins causing the problem, and venaseal, when the main blood vessel causing varicose veins is closed.
If treatment is necessary, the NHS advises your doctor may first recommend up to six months of using compression stockings, taking regular exercise and elevating the affected area when resting.
Other common treatment options include endothermic ablation - where heat is used to seal affected veins are surgically removed.

Recommended Singapore Plumber – The Best Plumbing in Singapore
May 16, 2013 By
Many homeowners today understand the importance of finding a highly qualified and reputable professional to provide service in their home. For any type of repair or contract labor work, you want to ensure that the professional that you contact will provide you with quality service and will charge you a fair and honest rate for the service provided. With this in mind, when you need plumbing repair service in your home, you may be asking friends and family members for the name of a recommended Singapore plumber. Whether you need an urgent or emergency plumbing service or need a plumber for standard service or even help with a home upgrade or minor home improvement project, you want to find a recommended Singapore plumber to provide you with quality assistance. Where to Look for Recommendations One of the most common sources to turn to for help finding a recommended Singapore plumber is your own friends and family members who live in the area. Many people have had great experiences with plumbers in Singapore over the years, but others may have had poor experiences with plumbers that you may want to know about before you decide which company to call. By speaking with friends and family members, you may learn which plumbers to steer clear of and which may be contacted as a highly recommended Singapore plumber. If you cannot get a good recommendation from those who you know in the area, consider reading online reviews to learn more about a specific company before you call them to schedule repair service in your home. The Right Services While some of your local acquaintances may have given you the name of a recommended Singapore plumber, you do want to make sure that the plumbing company offers the type of services that you need before you schedule service. For example, in Singapore, plumbers are required to have a license when providing services on clean water pipes and fixtures. If a plumber does not have a license, he or she may only be permitted to work on waste water pipes and fixtures. You should carefully read more about the types of services the recommended Singapore plumber provides to ensure that the plumber does offer the type of service you need. When in doubt, it is always best to choose a licensed plumbing company over an unlicensed one. Other Factors to Consider In addition, there are other factors to consider before you call a recommended Singapore plumber for assistance. For example, you want to consider if the plumber offers emergency service for urgent plumbing repair issues. Some plumbing companies will offer a next available opening for service, but they may not work on nights and weekends. If you have emergency repair needs, you want to look for a recommended Singapore plumber to assist you with your needs. You also should take the extra step to find a plumber who will provide you with an upfront quote before charging you money for your plumbing repair service. As you can see, you do want to take a moment to talk to those you know in Singapore to find the name of a recommended Singapore plumber for pipe burst. However, you also want to take the next step and learn more about the plumber or plumbing company before you call. Some plumbers may provide you with a better overall experience than others, and your effort spent searching for a quality plumbing will be rewarded. As one of the most highly rated plumbing companies in the area that is licensed and that offers 24-hour emergency service, we are often highly recommended by our previous clients. If you are looking for a recommended Singapore plumber, you can contact our office to schedule service.
