Watch www.locdlife.com this week for two new stories on loc styles. Coming soon!!!
Looking for holiday styles? Try a side swept style. It's perfect for a casual look, and elegant for a formal look. Adorn it with cowrie shells or loc jewelry. Chunks of color also looks good with this style. Use curlers to add soft waves.
To do, use strategically-placed hair pins along one side, or braid in sections on one side and leave the other side to flow freely. Either way, it's a great way to rock your locs.

New acquisitions in our colecction| On Apr17,2019
The old photographs collection of the Nomina Rosae Foundation was expanded with addition of 20 items this month!
Hence the charm of family albums. Those gray or sepia shadows, phantomlike and almost undecipherable, are no longer traditional family portraits but rather the disturbing presence of lives halted at a set moment in their duration.
André Bazin
For several years now we have been collecting various items related with the history of fashion and the history of Nowy Sącz. Both of these topics meet most often on old studio photographs. We collect old photos passionately and lately our collection was expanded with addition of 20 items. Photographs from 1860s to 1920s taken in the ateliers: Rivoli in Lwów, St. Bizański's in Kraków, in Vienna at Otto Schmidt's and in the Adele atelier, in Copenhagen, Munich and Berlin.
Each one is an unique portrait of a person, of fashion and of photographer's style.

AMHERST, MA – For the third straight year, Amherst College failed to lose a match as hosts of the Amherst Women's Volleyball Classic, as the Lord Jeffs earned a 3-1 win over Middlebury College Saturday morning before wrapping up the weekend with a 3-0 victory over Westfield State College. Amherst finished at 3-0 for the two-day event, while Middlebury, Brandeis University and Westfield State went 2-1, 1-2 and 0-3, respectively.
Amherst earned a convincing 3-0 victory over Middlebury earlier in the season, but the Panthers looked sharp this time around and took a 10-5 lead to force the Lord Jeffs into an early timeout in the first set. The visitors had an answer for every Amherst run, but the sixth lead change of the set would be the last, as the Jeffs took a 19-18 lead and did not look back. First-year Cristy Meier (San Anselmo, CA) had the finishing touch to cap off a 25-20 first-set win.
The Panthers led early in the second set, but Amherst did not relinquish its lead after going ahead 6-5. The Jeffs led comfortably for the majority of the set before being met by a late Middlebury surge, but senior Alison Munzer (Beverly Hills, CA) came up with a pair of kills down the stretch to help Amherst edge out a 25-21 victory.
Middlebury used an early 10-2 run to take control of the third set and lead by as many as nine points. The Jeffs could not find their rhythm and the Panthers did not let up, holding on for a 25-18 win to force a fourth set. Amherst regained control of the match by taking a 17-7 lead in the fourth frame en route to a 25-10 win, with sophomores Katherine Jordan (Los Altos Hills, CA) and Laura Hyman (Glencoe, IL) combining for a block on the match's final point.
Less than 24 hours after setting a new career high in assists, Jordan bested her Friday night total by picking up 45 against Middlebury, adding 18 digs (also a new career high), three service aces and three total blocks in what was another very solid performance for Amherst. Meier and Hyman paced the attack with 13 and 10 kills, respectively, while first-year Katherine Kanoff (Pacific Palisades, CA) and sophomore Rachel Yorke (Los Angeles, CA) each had 16 digs.
Senior quad-captain Hannah Wirth (Pacific Palisades, CA) was dominant at the net for the Lord Jeffs, as she hit at a .500 clip with nine kills to go along with six total blocks (two solo).
Senior co-captain Lindsay Patterson had 13 kills and 10 digs for the Panthers, with classmate Olivia Minkhorst chipping in with 14 digs. Sophomore Lauren Barrett had 33 assists and 15 digs, junior Natalie DuPre added 19 digs and four service aces, and sophomore Whitney Bean had seven kills and five total blocks.
First-year Jane Handel had a stellar all-around match for Middlebury, totaling eight kills, three service aces, 14 digs and a trio of total blocks.
Amherst carried its momentum into its 2 p.m. match with the Owls of Westfield State and cruised to victories of 25-17, 25-19 and 25-11. Meier and Munzer led the Amherst attack with 10 and eight kills, respectively, while Yorke had a match-high 15 digs. Kanoff had seven service aces with Jordan and junior Bethany Belisle (Austin, TX) each adding four, while Jordan added 27 assists.
First-year Alex Wahl (five kills, nine assists, three blocks) led the Owls, with sophomore Nicole Ryan and first-year April Gordon each picking up four kills. Juniors Katie Kurty and Stephanie Bartkus had eight and seven digs, respectively, while first-year Kerin DeGirolamo had four service aces.
The Lord Jeffs return to action Saturday, Oct. 4 to resume NESCAC play with an 11 a.m. match at Wesleyan University.

- Synopsis
- Just like other kids, Zinkoff rides his bike, hopes for snow days, and wants to be like his dad when he grows up. But Zinkoff also raises his hand with all the wrong answers, trips over his own feet, and falls down with laughter over a word like "Jabip." Other kids have their own word to describe him, but Zinkoff is too busy to hear it. He doesn't know he's not like everyone else. And one winter night, Zinkoff's differences show that any name can someday become "hero."

Urban Edinburgh Experience, City Centre living
Wonderful 19th century living in the heart of Edinburgh. This is a spacious flat with an open outlook onto a park, right in the centre of Scotland's beautiful capital. From here, you can get everywhere on foot or by bus. There are plenty of restaurants, pubs and cafes in the neighbourhood.
At 500.000 inhabitants, Edinburgh is big enough to call itself a city but still small enough to feel cosy, a bit like an international village. Edinburgh architecture is truly striking and will leave a lasting Impression: there's the 18th century New Town and the medieval Old Town, a World Heritage Site. The latter is a 10 to 15 min walk from our doorstep, the New Town is about 30 minutes on foot. Of course, there are plenty of buses in all directions and taxis are affordable.
Edinburgh has a beach, an inner city "pet" mountain, former vulcano called Arthur's Seat (some see a guardian lion in it). Arthur's Seat is 10 minutes away from us, it lies inmidst a spectacular huge park with an abundance of Walking or running paths.
There's the Queen's Palace, plenty of (free) museums, an underground world from medieval times, the famous Edinburgh Castle which sits on top of a rock, and much more…
Glasgow is 50km away and also well worth a visit, or two. Needless to say, nature lovers will find plenty to do both south and lorth of Edinburgh. The lowlands in the south are less well known but great for cycling and walking. The Highlands and Western Isles are stunning and deserve their own visits. However, much can be done as a daytrip from Edinburgh, plenty of busses going everywhere.
August is the Festival month when the City turns into one big party and and accommodation prizes rocket.

Cooking in Your Car- Bay Area Homelessness in 2018 and the rise of the Unhoused Middle Class
Salt, grease and fried meat filled the air. with just hint of burnt sugar thrown in. My mind wandered to breakfasts past sizzling in a greasy diner. The only thing was, i was on my bike, riding past an empty lot in East Oakland at 6:30am. No houses or restaurants were remotely close. And then i saw the smoke,and heard the sizzle. It was coming from one of a long line of late model Subarus, Hondas, BMW's, Acura sedans, and even a Mercedes, no car older than 2015, parked along this hidden street.
Violent Transportation- Ode to Nia Wilson & all our folks who lost their lives on BART
So Much Violence
As a kid, I found difficulty finding logic in why people committed brutal acts of violence and the motivation behind the crimes. From ordinary citizens to law enforcement the "jones" for violence and death has become the frightening norm for today's way of life in our "sodom and gomorrah" -like country.

A Grieving Mother June 15 2018
Grieving mother ... today faced with my own cross to bear. I'm realizing more and more that the hell that God speaks of may be the very personal experience that one relives here on Earth. I had the opportunity to Bear Witness a 18 year old young man transition out of here by train. His life was taken. I didn't see it personally but the tragedy has hit the news in the hoods neighbors family and friends of Miss Christa Holloway. Her son Victor is a great ancestor now ...
The Organized Poor Pt 2 Poor People March on Washington and HUD in honor of Dr/ King's March on Washington
"We are surrounded by Black Cops", said Leroy Moore, with POOR Magazine and Krip Hop Nation about the 15 black cops who surrounded us houseless and formerly houseless mamas, uncles, children, and elders from the Poor People's March when we walked humbly into the Washington DC office of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to demand our housing back.

"Accounting is the language of business." Warren Buffett
Profit and Loss account shows the profit a business earns. But this could be illusionary if the entrepreneur is not aware of the accounting.
Usually, companies play with the profit to satisfy the bankers and to evade taxes. This is a fine balance. For bank projected profit is important and for tax purpose deflated profit dishonest entrepreneurs aspire for.
There was a time when two sets of books of accounts were maintained. One for the bank and one for the tax department. Now with the integration/sharing of the data across the Govt departments, this practice has reduced substantially if not stopped completely.
Yet financial frauds like Satyam, Enron, ILFS, and Toshiba are about accounting jugglery and not declaring the true financial picture. Public companies fool investors by wrong disclosures. Most of the large corporate accounting frauds are about overstated profit, sales, and revenue.
"If lies are more comforting to you than facts, you need to get out of your comfort zone."
As mentioned above, all private companies and small businesses also play with the accounting data to evade tax and to justify their limits with the banks.
handpicked related post: Dear Entrepreneurs, Cashflow Is Not Your Money
Two data which are usually manipulated and remain manipulated are:
- Inventories
- Sundry Debtors
Higher Inventory:
Inflated inventory helps in higher working capital drawing power. It also helps in higher profit data.
Bank's working capital cash credit limit is arrived by adding account receivable and inventories and subtracting accounts payable.
Inventory valuation also impacts the profit figure. Therefore, there is a tendency to inflate inventory and continuing bad debts in sundry debtors' figure.
Higher profit is many times necessary to manage ratios and projections given to the banks. Lower profit and relevant affected ratios affect the credit rating of the company.
Higher Debtors:
Writing off bad debts reduces debtors and profit figure. Higher debtor's data helps the company to maintain the working capital drawing power.
There are some sales which just book entries. With the introduction of GST the practice of fake sales might have reduced. But the profit component of these sales is also book entries. This practice also tends to show more than actual book profits.
This allows the company to keep higher drawing powers (DP), but if an entrepreneur does not understand the data and assume the profit shown in Profit and Loss account as the real profit, there is a serious issue.
Imagine the data:
Turnover Rs. 250 mn,
Net Profit of Rs. 20 mn.
The bad debt of Rs.5.00 mn (2% of sales) and
Carrying a dead/very slow-moving stock of Rs. 4.00 mn (2% of Purchase).
In the above case, the real profit is Rs.11.00 mn and not Rs.20.00 mn
Net Profit Rs.20.00 mn
Minus Bad Debts Rs. 5.00 mn
Minus Dead Stock Rs.4.00 mn
Real Profit Rs. 11.00 mn
Every year the balance sheet is inflated by about 50% profit. This inflated data is represented by Capital on the liability side and Inventories, and Debtors on the asset side.
The Solution:
If you do not write off bad debts and dead stock periodically, the balance sheet becomes unreliable. Your bankers may be happy and you are also happy with higher drawing power, but your working capital is financing your dead investments, not your working investments.
Though bankers are now cautious about financing overdue debtors, your reliance on wrong data could prove a costly mistake.
Every business which goes out of business for manipulating the data, affect the lenders and creditors but the highest casualty is for the entrepreneur himself.
The entrepreneur goes out of business; no lenders or creditors would lend him. It becomes difficult to build a business after a failure.
The solution is knowing your data well. Understand the implications of data manipulation, and keep the record straight. Do not get swayed by short-term benefits. Correct books of accounts will help you incorrect analysis of the data. Manipulated data will fool the system first but in the end, it eats away the business itself.
"Managers thinking about accounting issues should never forget one of Abraham Lincoln's favorite riddles: How many legs does a dog have if you call a tail a leg? The answer: Four, because calling a tail a leg doesn't make it a leg." Warren Buffett
Do not be happy with your bottom-line figure. Adjust it for the real profit. Your wrong belief is not going to increase the real profit. The real profit is the profit which really is.

Being Present
A part of being human means that we have the capacity to imagine. We are the only species on this planet that can do that.[1] We can reflect on things, dream, plan, and picture things in our minds even when they're not in front of us. This is perhaps a blessing and a curse, and we often forget to be present because we're too busy making plans for the future, or worrying about something that happened in the past.
I think it's important to try to find ways to be present that work for you in your daily life. It can be a different thing for each of us. Meditation is great, and I'm going to write more about that later, as it's been a big deal to me personally, to realize what meditation is really all about. I think there are a lot of misconceptions about it out there. But being present can mean to simply engage in an activity that you find enjoyable, and which requires the right amount of focus so your mind doesn't start to wander.
Some ideas: making art (it doesn't matter if it's good or if anyone else will see it - it's just for you!); dancing to music you love; enjoying food while you're eating it (yes, this actually can be challenging); swimming in the ocean; taking a walk in nature; even cooking or doing other housework can be very calming actually, and makes you focus on what you're doing. My own favorite "being present" thing to do is dance, and I am dreaming of a big dance party on the beach... But in the meantime I'm just going to close my eyes, put on some awesome music, and imagine I'm at such a party - because I'm human so I can! :D

Happy Vibes
It's funny how in life, the lens through which we look at things is so highly affected by the mood we're in at the time – well, being a highly sensitive and emotional person, at least this is the case for me. A few months ago I went through a phase where I perceived everything through a super positive lens. During that time I saw love everywhere, laughter, happiness… It was so wonderful, and it truly made me realize that all this is there, but it just requires us to see it. Of course, at the same time I was aware of all the awful things that are constantly going on in this world, and I thought "Why do we focus so much on the negative?" When it comes to our inner selves, most of us are our own fiercest critic. We don't cut ourselves much slack. It might sound simplistic or like a cliché (then again, I've already stated that I believe clichés exist for a reason), but one of my key beliefs is that if everyone could love themselves, they would be much more capable of loving others. This also means not hating so much. This world isn't fair. I don't need to tell you in what way – you already know – but I often find myself almost feeling guilty for how privileged I am, to be born in a country of endless possibilities, (mostly) functioning systems, and cleanliness. Not only that – money has never truly been a problem in my life. That is more than can be said for most of the world's inhabitants. I constantly keep questioning myself about whether I'm doing the best I can to improve this world, whether I'm making a difference with this one life I have, whether there's more I could do, etc.
So while I was going through this "positivity phase", I decided to start Happy Vibes Project. The goal was nothing in particular at the time – it's the journey that matters, and I think we're often way too focused on the end goal of everything we do – but the intention behind it was to contribute to spreading happy vibes, and aim to do that in everything I do. Not always an easy task, and I'm of course only human, but keeping this thought in mind has helped me a lot when going through difficult times ever since then. Trying to get ourselves distanced from this "human condition" that we live in is a daily challenge, when we even remember to pay it some thought.
In this blog, I am focusing on happy vibes, but I write about other topics and struggles as well. I also share our newsletter posts, and welcome guest bloggers. Hope you enjoy!
Happy Vibes Project is, first and foremost, a space where I share my excitement and fascina-tion about being human. I have a tendency to fall into research rabbit holes on almost any topic from science & technology to film ma-king, philosophy, cultu-re, art ... and, of course, holistic health. Happi-ness only gets better when shared, so feel free to reach out if you have an interesting story or would like to con-tribute in any other way! <3

Sometimes, you have to explain what publishing is to people that aren't very interested in books. These people tend to have trouble getting their head around the fact that there's this whole industry behind the scenes and this industry isn't just Author, Editor, Bookshop.
So here's a rhyme. Memorise it. You'll thank me when you don't have to have this conversation again:
"So what do you do for a living?"
"I work in publishing."
"Huh. Books. Yeah. So…you edit books?"
*sigh* "Yeah. Yeah, I edit books."
You're welcome.

- ]]>Amiloride]]>
- Combination agents ( ]]>Dyazide]]> )
Also called "water pills," diuretics help promote excretion of water and sodium from the body. This reduces the amount of work the heart has to perform.
Possible general side effects include:
- Altered potassium levels, which can cause muscle cramping and abnormal heart rhythms.
- Low blood pressure
- Dizziness
Aldosterone Receptor Blocker
Common names include:
- Eplerenone]]> (Inspra)
Aldosterone receptor blockers are generally used to treat ]]>hypertension]]> . Inspra is the first drug in this class to receive additional FDA approval to treat patients who develop congestive heart failure following an acute ]]>heart attack]]> . Patients who received Inspra, along with other appropriate treatment, had a lower risk of death.
Possible general side effects include:
- Headache
- Dizziness or lightheadedness
- Abdominal pain
- Diarrhea
- Cough
- Fatigue
- Flu-like symptoms
- Breast enlargement or tenderness
Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE inhibitors)
Common names include:
- Captopril]]> (Capoten)
- ]]>Enalapril]]> (Vasotec)
- ]]>Lisinopril]]> (Zestril, Prinivil)
- ]]>Benazepril]]> (Lotensin)
- ]]>Quinapril]]> (Accupril)
- ]]>Ramipril]]> (Altace)
- ]]>Fosinopril]]> (Monopril)
- ]]>Moexipril]]> (Univasc)
- Tandolapril
- ]]>Perindopril]]>
ACE inhibitors prevent the body from creating angiotensin II, a substance in the blood that causes vessels to tighten and raises blood pressure. As a result, ACE inhibitors relax blood vessels, lower blood pressure, and ease the heart's workload. A number of studies have shown that ACE inhibitors are beneficial in reducing symptoms and prolonging life in patients with CHF. These medications should be considered in all patients who have CHF. Talk with your doctor to see if an ACE inhibitor is right for you.
Possible general side effects include:
- Cough and occasional rash
- Altered sense of taste
- Increased potassium levels, altered kidney function
Common names include:
- Isosorbide dinitrate]]> (Isordil)
- ]]>Nesiritide]]> (Natrecor)
- ]]>Hydralazine]]> (Apresoline)
- Nitrate drugs
- ]]>Minoxidil]]>
Vasodilators help dilate or enlarge blood vessels. People with CHF often have blood vessels that are constricted, which causes the heart to work harder pumping blood through the vessels. Vasodilators address this problem.
Possible general side effects include:
- Sudden drop in blood pressure
- Dizziness, fainting
- Headache
- Flushing
- Racing heart or palpitations
Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers (ARBs)
Common names include:
- Losartan]]> (Cozaar)
- ]]>Irbesartan]]> (Avapro)
- ]]>Valsartan]]> (Diovan)
- ]]>Candesartan]]>
- ]]>Eprosartan]]>
- ]]>Telmisartan]]>
- ]]>Olmesartan]]>
These are a newer class of medications similar to ACE inhibitors, but with a significantly lower frequency of cough as a side effect. The general side effects in angiotensin II receptor blockers were similar to that of placebos in most studies. Like ACE inhibitors, they may have very rare, but severe side effects. Doctors may prescribe this class of medicine for patients who cannot tolerate ACE inhibitors because of cough or other side effects. In selected groups of patients with severe CHF, ACE inhibitors may be used along with ARBs.
Common names include:
- Metoprolol]]> (Lopressor, Toprol-XL)
- ]]>Atenolol]]> (Tenormin)
- ]]>Carvedilol]]> (Coreg)
- ]]>Bisoprolol]]> (Zebeta)
- ]]>Propranolol]]>
- ]]>Sotalol]]>
- ]]>Pindolol]]>
- ]]>Penbutolol]]>
- ]]>Acebutolol]]>
- ]]>Timolol]]>
- ]]>Nadolol]]>
- ]]>Betaxalol]]>
Beta-blockers help slow the heart rate and reduce blood pressure. They are used for mild to moderate CHF and are often used in conjunction with other medications such as diuretics, ACE inhibitors, and digoxin. Ask your doctor if a beta-blocker is right for you.
Possible side effects:
- Decreased sexual ability
- Dizziness or lightheadedness
- Trouble sleeping
- Unusual tiredness or weakness
- Low blood pressure
- Decreased ability to participate in strenuous physical activity
Common names include:
- Digoxin]]> (Lanoxin)
- Digitoxin
Also known as digitalis, this medication increases the strength of the heart contractions, slows the heartbeat, and controls abnormal heart rhythms, such as atrial fibrillation.
Possible side effects include:
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Confusion
Special Considerations
Whenever you are taking a prescription medication, take the following precautions:
- Take them as directed— not more, not less, not at a different time.
- Do not stop taking them without consulting your doctor.
- Don't share them with anyone else.
- Know what effects and side effects to expect, and report them to your doctor.
- If you are taking more than one drug, even if it is over-the-counter, be sure to check with a doctor or pharmacist about drug interactions.
- Plan ahead for refills so you don't run out.

I was sent a pack of 6 filters for the Mavic 2 Pro to test out – ND 4,8, 16 and associated rotatable CPL-ND4,8 and 16. Like previous reviews, we will start with the packaging:
The packaging displays well the difference between installing the Pro and Zoom lenses.
The lenses are well packaged. Just the small details that demonstrate attention to quality.
Focusing on the individual filters:
We can see that they are on average of a high quality. The adonizing is consistent, and multicoating consistent from visual inspection across the lens. Cheaper lenses often demonstrate non-consistent application of multicoating.
Looking at the sides of the filters, there are dimpled edges, which do actually help in holding the filter, and making it easier to put on and remove the filter compared to smooth edged filters as I'll show below. But first, a picture of the back of both CPL and ND filters:
Again, fairly high quality construction at first, BUT, unfortunately, there is a small quality control issue. Looking at the filter, a faint line of glue was visible that was smeared beyond the glass edge into the visible area, something I have not noticed with the Skyreat filters I have reviewed previously.
From my tests, this does not affect image quality, but is just a pity of below average quality control. This was only present in the ND filters, NOT the ND-CPL filters, which I found rather intriguing.
On further analysis, I decided to compare these filters with the ones I received from Skyreat:
They're virtually the same! Apart from some cosmetic changes, they are virtually the same filters. No doubt, they were made in the same factory. On testing of photos using these filters, there is no difference in quality between these and the Skyreat filters, which I reviewed previously here:
Skyreat Mavic 2 Pro ND and ND-PL Filter Review
Here are some sample photos with the ND4-CPL filters. I won't bother posting up all the images, as the results are no different from the Skyreat review, but needless to say the optical quality is outstanding, with virtually no quality degradation and minimal casting, that the drone will compensate for anyway.
They are in jpg to make viewing easier, but are at full resolution, with no post processing. For those of you observant, it's visible the variable effect of the ND filter depending on what angle the drone is relative to the sun. With a fixed linear polarising filter, this would be uncorrectable.
However, with a rotatable CPL filter as we have here, this is easily ameliorated by rotating the filter to achieve maximal polarisation before sending the drone up into sky. Just aim the drone on the ground, rotate til you note maximal contrast and colour saturation on the screen preview, and send the drone up!
These filters fit the camera front assembly perfectly, and are very easy to put on and remove, aided by the dimpled sides which help grip the lens filter. There was no play with the filters I received between the filter and the lens body. The gimbal initialized with no issues, and the gimbal cover fit on without any hinderance like was present in first generation filters from these 3rd party suppliers.
Conclusion: A very good filter set, with excellent optical quality. The fit is spot on, and dimpled edges make this personally the easier of the two filter sets I've reviewed to put on and remove. It's a pity about some of the quality control issues present on the ND filters (not CPL filters). However, this does not seem to affect the optical quality. For the price, this, like the Skyreat filters, is undeniably an excellent purchase, and something I cannot recommend enough for the Mavic 2 Pro.

Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis Don't Have to Ruin Your Love Life
Studies show that psoriatic disease can take a significant toll on sex and intimacy.
The physical and emotional effects of psoriatic disease can put a strain on even close personal relationships. The thick patches of red, dry skin caused by psoriasis and painful, swollen joints associated with psoriatic arthritis make intimacy challenging. But there are things you can do to have a satisfying sex life.
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) usually occurs in people with skin psoriasis, but it is possible to have one autoimmune disorder or the other. About 15 percent of people with psoriasis develop PsA, according to the American College of Rheumatology. In a 2015 study by the National Psoriasis Foundation, nearly one-third of people said that their psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis interfered with their love life.
Physical Pain Is a Major Concern
"Arthritis can cause physical discomfort and limitations," says Ana-Maria Orbai, MD, a professor at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, who specializes in arthritis and rheumatology.
For people with skin psoriasis, skin inflammation can cause pain and bleeding and affect how a person experiences sex.
A 2013 study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine found that women with genital psoriasis "have more significantly impaired sexual function compared with either those without genital lesions or those with lesions elsewhere in the body."
How the Conditions Affect Self-Esteem
While the physical symptoms can be quite painful, an even bigger challenge for many psoriatic patients has to do with self-image. "A lot of the issues arise because of poor body image and self-worth," says Dr. Orbai.
A common concern for people in new relationships is appearance. "This can be very important to people and impacts how they feel about themselves, and whether they feel judged or not," says Orbai.
Issues of self-esteem and self-worth related to skin conditions can lead to avoidance of intimate situations even in long-term relationships, according to a 2010 study published in the journal Psychology, Health, and Medicine. How a person deals with these feelings can be very different depending on age, personality, and gender.
"Sometimes men can be insecure about their skin and try to overcompensate with their performance," says Vinicius Domingues, MD, a rheumatologist in private practice in Daytona Beach, Florida, and a medical adviser to CreakyJoints, an online patient community for people with arthritis.
"Some of my male patients take erectile dysfunction drugs, even though they don't actually need them, because they are feeling insecure," says Dr. Domingues. "They want to make sure that they can perform." According to a 2013 study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, men with psoriasis are at an increased risk of developing sexual dysfunction.
If you have active plaque psoriasis it can definitely mess with your confidence. Couples in established, long-term relationships feel less insecure about their condition, according to Domingues. "For a new relationship though, the prospect of revealing your body for the first time can be pretty daunting," he says.
Communication With Partners, Loved Ones, and Doctors Is Key
When you are ready to discuss your condition with your partner, be open and honest. Be ready to answer any questions, because they may not know much, if anything at all, about the disease.
"You need to accept who you are right now, and so does your partner," says Domingues.
Don't be shy about reaching out to friends and family when you are experiencing negative feelings about yourself and your condition, says Orbai. "How a person makes use of their support network and relationships is important as well," she explains. "This includes not only your relationship with your significant other, but also your family and your healthcare provider."
According to a 2012 study published in the Journal of Dermatological Treatment, doctors treating the medical symptoms of psoriasis don't necessarily talk to patients about its effects on their personal feelings and body image. If you want emotional support and advice from your healthcare provider, you may need to initiate the conversation.
Weighing the Emotional and Mental Effects
"The emotional impact is really challenging," says Orbai. "Many times, people think the problems are mostly physical, but what I hear a lot in clinic and in my research is that the emotional impact is even larger than the physical impact," she says.
A 2010 study published in the Archives of Dermatology found that psoriasis patients were at an increased risk of depression and anxiety, and 2014 research in the Journal of Rheumatology found the same to be true of people with psoriatic arthritis.
First and Foremost, Find the Best Treatment for You
Of course, getting the proper treatment for psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis is critical to managing the disease's effects. If the condition's symptoms are under control, the effect on a person's personal life and relationships can be significantly reduced.
As Orbai puts it, "If your disease is controlled and you are almost back to your normal state, the condition should become less relevant."
Remember, says Domingues, "there's a good chance this will get better with treatment."

The following is excerpted from a letter to investment clients sent out on January 20, 2010.
The Recovery(?)
In a client letter written in April 2009, we made the bold (at the time) suggestion that regardless of the long-term structural issues facing the US economy, it was entirely possible that the jaw-dropping levels of economic stimulus underway at the time could create some sort of cyclical economic rebound. This claim seems less crazy now, as there has clearly been a rebound in various sectors of the economy.
People focus on unemployment, which remains quite high, but employment is a lagging indicator of economic activity. This graph that I put up at voiceofsandiego.org shows that going as far back as the data allows, unemployment has never begun to decline until after the recession was over. (I even checked this for the Great Depression and got the same result).
In contrast, many of those data points that tend to be leading indicators of economic activity have rebounded strongly. There's little question that an economic rebound of some sort is underway. The question is how strong and enduring that rebound will be.
That is a valid concern. As I mentioned, the US faces deep structural issues that will almost certainly impede future growth in a significant way. The most important of these is the tremendous amount of debt we owe to foreign nations, but others include our giant deficit, our unfunded entitlements, heavy-handed government intervention in the economy, potential state and municipal bankruptcies, the complete lack of a private-sector mortgage market, and a political class that is bent on propping up asset prices to the detriment of real productivity and a stable currency.
It's difficult to envision a truly robust economy under these conditions. But the fact is that a sufficient amount of debt-financed government stimulus and money printing can create a cyclical boom even under (shall we say) less-than-optimal circumstances. We think this is what's happening now. It doesn't fix any of the deeper problems, and as a matter of fact, it makes some of them much worse. But on the long path towards working through our issues and imbalances, it's entirely possible that we could get the occasional stimulus-driven cyclical boom here and there.
People talk about what "shape" a recovery might be. A V-shape (a rapid recovery), a U-shape (a slower recovery), or an L-shape (no recovery at all, just stagnation). The best shape-metaphor we have heard, however, is a square-root symbol.
Don't worry, I'm not going to make you do any math. The square-root sign (which looks like this) is simply a good shape to trace out potential economic activity. It would entail a fairly sharp recovery, engendered both by government stimulus and inventory replenishment as a world that had ground to an economic halt gets moving again. However, the recovery wouldn't last for too long, and it would be followed by stagnation (the flat part of the square root symbol) as the structural issues come back into play and put downward pressure on economic activity.
To that last point, the problem is that economic recovery in this situation is self-limiting to an extent. As the economy improves, the likely outcome would be that energy prices rise, general price inflation increases, and rates rise on the heavy debt load we carry. These factors would all be bad for economic growth. The result is that as soon as the economy started getting a head of steam, rising rates, energy prices, and inflation could arrive to a degree that could arrest further growth or even smack the economy back down again.
So, unfortunately, we think that the square-root recovery is probably the best that we can hope for. It's certainly possible that the economy will do worse than that, and dip back into outright recession -- though it's also possible that it could surprise on the upside, at least for a while. The recovery-to-stagnation scenario seems most likely to us, but in such a huge, complex, and heavily government-manipulated economy, nothing is a sure thing.
Fortunately, from an investment standpoint we don't need to depend on a given economic outcome taking place. We invest based on fundamentals and valuations and on the long-term returns they portend, not on being right about every shorter-term twist and turn in the economy.
The US Stock Market
From a fundamental standpoint, the US stock market as a whole does not hold much appeal. I recently put up a website article noting that the US stock market was overvalued by our favorite measure. When I wrote the article in October the market was about 28% overvalued; at this point the market is closer to 38% overvalued!
This just isn't a market where we want to have a lot of exposure. Our country's massive debt load will provide a major headwind to future economic growth, so if anything, this climate would call for lower-than-usual stock valuations. Yet here we are with stocks being 38% overvalued based on their historical relationship with underlying earnings.
This explains why we were reducing our stock exposure (and especially US stock exposure) in the latter half of 2009. Of course, the market proceeded to increase further -- and it may increase further still. But holding an overpriced asset in the hopes that it will get even more overpriced is not the kind of investment we like to make. We have to be prudent about prospective risk and reward, and the elevated valuations tell us that it's best to err on the side of caution as far as the broad US stock market is concerned.
Of course, it is a giant market consisting of many different industries and businesses. While we think the US market as a whole is overvalued, we continue to believe that certain sectors and companies are priced to deliver very good returns. These include those sectors that are poised to benefit from higher inflation and so-called "quality" companies with reliable cash flow and low levels of debt. Additionally, we expect better potential returns in many international stock markets, especially from emerging markets and other countries that are not huge external debtors like the US.

The launch of a design guide for a South Belfast conservation area marks a "step change" in the approach of the Planning Service to protecting architectural and historic character here, according to planners.
Speaking at the release of the Malone Conservation Area Design Guide last Friday (December 16) representatives of the Planning Service told members of the community and politicians that the unveiling was the latest stage in an attempt to "manage the change and evolution" of the Malone area.
The new design guide sees 13 sub-areas designated, stretching from the Lisburn Road to Broomhill and Deramore, and from Wellesley Avenue to Balmoral. They will each be granted their own identity, based on the unique setting of each area.
It means each area will have its landscape statutorily safeguarded due to its "positive contribution" to the conservation area. The retention of "historic fabric" will also be promoted, with "appropriate materials and historic construction methods" being used for any repairs and alterations to existing buildings.
Danesfort, Queen's Elms and the grounds of Stranmillis College have been excluded from the design guide.
Neil Dunlop, divisional planning manager with the Planning Service, told attendees at the launch at Lisburn Road Library that the guide would be a "great benefit" when contemplating future planning decisions.
"We are doing this guide to help the development of the area. It will be of great benefit for us who will be making regular decisions in the future, to make sure this attractive area is enhanced in future.
"This guide has emerged after a very comprehensive review of the area. The review leading up to it was very inclusive and we spoke not only with Belfast City Council and the Historical Buildings Society but also local residents and other people who have an interest in the Malone area."
When questioned by members of the audience, Anne Garvey, deputy secretary of the Department of the Environment's planning in local government group, admitted the guide would be forefront in planners' minds when deciding on future applications.
"This makes the information we use very clear. This marks a step change for the Planning Service because we now have something sitting in front of us that makes it clear what can and can't be done.
"The detail in this guide makes the information we have now very solid. It is the first time we have had a detailed assessment for this area so we can take forward decisions much more easily.
"We can now say to developers this is what we expect and you need to match that in order to put in new developments into this area. We will be looking at everything now with this guide in mind."

OK so he's the record signing. But he's anonymous in games. But having said that, when he does get on the ball he looks classy, good control, keeps the ball and lays it off well. He does not graft or get involved, but has he ever had too?
In Germany he played a totally different game, mostly with a strike partner. We have Antonio and the lesser spotted Ajeti. So why does Wurzel insist on playing Haller up front on his own like a dick in the wind?
His body language is awful, he must be dejected as we are not playing to his strengths. When Wurzel was at Citeh, he played Dzeko and Tevez as a two. I thought he would play the same way here but no.
I honestly feel the talent is within the squad. But the tactics are woeful. Surely the Dildos have had enough now?
Time for a change, and lets get these players playing properly!!
Dicks is the man
Thu, 05/12/2019 - 12:12
lets also not forget this is his first season in the prem. I think he's a good player but I agree this is not the season for him to be expected to shoulder the entire attack on his own. my problem is there's no one really to go with him. forget Ajeti, Antonio is the only option but im thinking we should've kept chick pea as he would be ideal to finish off the chances.
Dartford Bhoy
Fri, 06/12/2019 - 07:08
Spot on Ditm, Chick Pea was perfect for that role!
Dicks is the man
Thu, 05/12/2019 - 14:48
hes playing Anderson just behind from what I can make out but that's clearly rubbish. Anderson needs to be out wide, able to have some space to run with it, hes no Bergkamp. that said, hes not done anything this season anyway. we should've scored last night, how snodgrass messed it up I don't know, then blamed a knock. overall, toothless is the right word.
Fri, 06/12/2019 - 18:31
I think we should of signed Mario - he was much better in the midfield role busting into the box than Fornals
Sat, 07/12/2019 - 15:18
Assombalonga would of been a bargain and saved us a huge transfer fee and big wages but nope wont happen....keep an eye out for another striker Ivan Toney plays for Peterborough just like Assombalonga used to and this Lads got it all but we wont take a chance on him Bournemouth are tracking him and it would not surprise me if they sell Callum Wilson for big dosh and get this Lad in for £12 million and he will be a hit....you heard it here first
Dicks is the man
Sat, 07/12/2019 - 19:04
I looked him up, he cost boro 14 mill. he's scored just 5 in 19 games? lol, hes pants mate.
Sat, 07/12/2019 - 20:49
Lol Britts in a god awful side but he's getting on but Ivans the future:-)
Sun, 08/12/2019 - 13:06
Over paying £7.5million for Antonio how it was to much for a championship player etc etc well look how that turned out and plenty of other decent players down there who can do more than an adequate job in the prem....Ajeti £8million what a waste yes Hugill was way overpriced and Moyes paid the price my guessing because Moyes brother was his agent.....but look at Stuart Dallas at leeds he's a helluva player yet we got Zabaletta on a free his age never questioned or fact his legs had gone.....Our board like making loud noises about what they spend and Marquis names but i would rather they looked a little closer to home than going for a cheaper Foreign option and when splashing the big bucks for god sake get proper reports on the player not only on there ability but personality and ability to play in the best league in the world.

We know that Terminator 5 is on the horizon, rumored to be called Terminator: Genesis. We also know that it's going to be shit. No, not the shit… shit. Although Jim Cameron's use of the word 'piss' to describe where the Terminator franchise went to without his direction is also suitable. Good man, Jim!
Anyway… despite the poor outlook for that movie, one man wants in – Jean Claude Van Damme. He took to his Facebook to tell his 5.7 million followers that, yes, the petition to get him cast in the next Terminator movie was a good idea and had his backing: "Answering your questions, I would definitely like to join the Terminator franchise with Mr. Arnold Schwarzenegger." As if keen to emphasize the point, Van Damme again came back with… "I would love to! Let's see if the studio is interested. Thank you." Well, take ManlyMovie's word on this one. Not. Gonna. Happen. Petition or no. The studio are in reboot territory with younger faces wanted. Van Damme isn't who he used to be.
Still. Sound off, sign that petition.

Strike struck
Students at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem hit back at their striking
teachers last week by cutting off the electricity supply to the university's
life sciences institute, disrupting research. The students were protesting
against a staff strike that was then entering its tenth week. Student leaders
say they will continue to disrupt research until a settlement is reached.
Yehoshua Ben-Arieh, rector of the university, described the action as
'bordering on criminal'. 'A longer cutoff could cause serious damage that
cannot be measured in monetary terms,' says Etana Padan, head of the Alexander
Silberman Institute of Life Sciences.
Faculty members at all seven of Israel's universities stopped teaching
two weeks before the end of the autumn term, demanding a 100 per cent pay
increase; the government refuses to pay more than 30 per cent. But while
classes were cancelled, staff continued with their research.
At first the student unions supported the staff. But with the entire
academic year in danger of being cancelled, student leaders are now demanding
that the staff union go to arbitration to reach a settlement.

SUNRISE (CBSMiami/AP) — The Florida Panthers are getting hot at the right time.
Aleksander Barkov scored twice, including the go-ahead goal late in the second period, to lead Florida past the Vancouver Canucks 3-1 on Tuesday night.
Jamie McGinn also scored for the Panthers. Harri Sateri made 26 saves for his fourth consecutive win.
Markus Granlund scored for the Canucks, and Jacob Markstrom stopped 37 shots.
Barkov gave the Panthers a 2-1 lead with 3:52 left in the second. He corralled a loose puck in the high slot, skated in and sent a backhand off Markstrom's pad and into the net. Barkov has 14 points in his last 13 games and is tied for the team lead with Jonathan Huberdeau and Vincent Trocheck at 18 goals.
Barkov added an empty-net goal with 41.5 seconds left to make it 3-1.
Vancouver tied it 1-all on a short-handed goal by Granlund, who grabbed a loose puck in the neutral zone, skated in and put the puck between Sateri's pads with 8:20 left in the second.
McGinn put the Panthers ahead 1-0 with his power-play goal with 3:32 left in the first. McGinn pushed the puck from the right side to the center of the crease and it bounced off the blade of Vancouver defenseman Christopher Tanev and into the net.
NOTES: Panthers goalie James Reimer returned to practice Monday for the first time since injuring his groin on Jan. 23 in Dallas. Reimer's return is tentatively slated for Friday against Los Angeles, coach Bob Boughner said. … D Ian McCoshen returned to the lineup after being a healthy scratch the previous nine games. … Canucks C Sam Gagner was back in the lineup after missing one game with an upper-body injury.
Canucks: Visit the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday.
Panthers: Host the Los Angeles Kings on Friday.

Let's dive in:
- Spent Memorial Day weekend in Maine and New Hampshire. Both states are beautiful and chock full of seafood, so you should probably go as soon as you can.
- Used $200 from my United TravelBank account to book a discounted ticket to San Francisco for Labor Day weekend, which brought the price from an already-good $397 to a better $197. The $200, of course, is really the $200 airline credit from my AmEx Business Platinum card that I receive each calendar year. I made the purchase with my AmEx Premier Rewards Gold card, which receives 3x points per dollar on airline spend and has a $100 airline credit per calendar year. Hopefully, the PRG Gold credit will knock the price of the ticket down from $197 to $97, which is highway robbery for a summer NYC-SFO roundtrip. The miles earned from the flight I will credit to my Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer account instead of United MileagePlus, earning me 5,172 Krisflyer miles versus 1,500 United miles. #Unitedsucks
- Waiting on my good friend See, Think, Explore to figure out her wedding site in Phuket for next summer. She recently snapped me photos of the Naka, a Luxury Collection SPG hotel, and they were stunning (hotel's IG at end of post). Fingers crossed she will somehow let me use my SPG card to pay, since as an SPG Gold member I earn 1 point for every $2 spend on the wedding…(of course, this is a big, silly ask!)
- Figuring out how to make sure my parents will spend all 23 of their nights in Japan on points. I will conservatively estimate the value of these nights at over $12,000.
- Getting into the world of bank account bonuses, courtesy of Doctor of Credit. I will report back when I have earned something tangible, but it looks to be lucrative.
Stay tuned for more and in the meantime, it's summer, go hit the beach!

Billboard magazine has decided to create a new Americana and Folk Albums chart in a move that recognizes the rise of artists — such as Jason Isbell and the Lumineers —who have enjoyed commercial success.
Billboard announced the chart change on Thursday, effective June 4, in an email to record executives. The chart was previously called the Folk Albums chart, leaving some Americana artists without a go-to chart.
The move comes a few months after heated debate when the country-folk band Green River Ordinance was left off the Country Albums chart, but slotted on the Folk and Rock charts. And the new chart serves as another piece of recognition for the rise of Americana, the broad umbrella of a genre that covers American roots music from multiple sub-genres — country, rock, blues, folk and jazz, among others.
"This change recognizes the growth of Americana and the prominent rise of the term overall, both within the industry and in widespread music coverage," said Gary Trust, co-director of charts for Billboard in email forwarded to The Tennessean.

Consensus Exhortation
One of the many aspects of the apostolic exhortation, Amoris Laetitia, that I find particularly noteworthy is that it expresses the Holy Father's engagement with the bishops who attended both the 2014 and the 2015 Synods on marriage and all of the material that was a part of those two gatherings that spoke about marriage, the challenges to marriage and of course the beauty and blessings of marriage.
Following the mind and words of the Second Vatican Council, Pope Francis has placed great emphasis on his unity with the bishops as they carry out their teaching and governance role in the Church. The Council reminds us that bishops, always with and never without Peter, share a responsibility for the life of the Church. Pope Francis has called upon all of us, but especially bishops, to recognize that it is not just one voice that guides the whole Church but the action of the Holy Spirit working in the hearts and minds of the faithful but particularly in the work, ministry and charism of the bishops.
The Holy Father has highlighted, once again, the role of bishops in collaboration with him in the overall responsibilities for leadership, teaching and pastoral ministry of the Church. You may recall that in February of 2014, the Holy Father, at a consistory of the cardinals, asked us to begin to reflect on the challenges to marriage today. He then called for a Synod in 2014 that addressed the difficulties that marriage faces and reminded us of the heavily secular culture we live in, of the materialism that is a part of the mentality of many people, the individualism that dominates our culture, particularly in the Western world and in the United States, and the relativism that is at the heart of so much of the moral judgment that is made today. Here the Pope noted that it is precisely in this context that our people live and that our teaching must help them move beyond.
In the 2015 Synod, the focus was on the substance of the Church's teaching on marriage and family and its relevance today. The Synod affirmed that there is a difference between the teaching on the indissolubility of marriage, a doctrine of the Church, and the pastoral judgment concerning relationship to the Sacraments. The two realities are greatly related but they are not the same thing. I pointed out in earlier writings, blogs, interviews and in other communications that we must be careful not to mix together as if there were no distinctions among: God's revelation to us in Jesus Christ; the Church's articulated doctrine; Church law which attempts to apply the teaching, and the evaluation of the specific concrete situation of each believer. The context of both Church law and the pastoral assessment is the loving, pastoral assistance of the pastors of the Church.
What this post-synodal apostolic exhortation is highlighting is both what the Synod in 2014 said about the challenges to married people and the cultures in which they live, and then what the second Synod in 2015 also said about the beauty and the blessing of marriage and our need to foster and share that wonderful teaching.
What I find so instructive in this apostolic exhortation, Amoris Laetitia, is how our Holy Father has relied on a number of theological sources including: Saint Thomas Aquinas, the Common Doctor of the Church; the Magisterium of the Church, and in particular the teaching of Saint John Paul II. Then in the efforts to hear how that teaching is lived and applied today, Pope Francis relies greatly on the consensus that came out of the two Synods and found in the relatio synodi of 2014 and the relatio finalis of 2015.
What this says is that the Pope together with bishops from around the world have for two years discussed, prayed, listened, reflected and discussed again and again how to present the Church's teaching on marriage in a way that it is inviting and compelling and at the same time engage people who live in a marriage that does not reflect perfectly and entirely in the Church's teaching.
Pope Francis gives an example for all of us that if we are involved in the work, ministry and particularly in the pastoral life of the Church, we have to be aware of the teaching, of the need to internalize that teaching and at the same time of the individual circumstances in which that teaching is lived.
At the end of all of the discussions and all of the reflections carried out over two full years, there emerges now this apostolic exhortation that I would call a "consensus exhortation."
It is important to note, notwithstanding some of the news articles and blogs, that every paragraph of the final relatio of the Synod was approved by a two-thirds majority of the bishops and that nearly every paragraph received close to 95% support. What this apostolic exhortation is confirming for us is the validity and the value of the Second Vatican Council's call for collegial reflection, that is the bishops coming together and working together, always with and never without Peter.
This apostolic exhortation highlights in an extraordinary manner the importance of the consensus that the bishops arrived at and that he as Peter, head of the Church, and in communion with his brothers, now affirms and confirms.

Note: text in square brackets is added for clarity and was not part of the location's name.Station code: CBC National Rail ScotRail
This is a three platform station located immediately north of Coatbridge Junction. The southbound platform is an island.
The south end of the station is partly on a bridge, (formerly crossing the Monkland Canal).
To the north of the station was a direct link into the Summerlee Iron Works - a better connection than that from the Monkland and Kirkintilloch Railway which required a reversal to reach the same spot.
The present layout dates from a cut back version of the 1899 reconstruction of the station. The bridge to the south was rebuilt allowing the platform to be extended south onto the bridge and increased the length of the loop on the east side. The northbound platform was extended northwards and sidings in the west side goods yard modified. This was a four platform station, there was a bay at the north end of the northbound platform. A new large signal box was provided.
A Caledonian Railway building, two storeys with a Dutch gable and dating from the reconstruction of the station, remains on the east side of the station, now in other uses. The building has been used as a pub or restaurant on a number of occasions and has also regularly been derelict. It no longer features its street level entrance canopy. No platform level buildings survive. These were similar to those at Gleneagles and Eglinton Street. The large canopies were braced across the centre tracks. The signal box closed in 1973.
Summerlee Museum of Scottish Industrial Life is not far from the station.
