LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) You’ve come through a difficult period of helping others deal with their problems. Now you can concentrate on putting your energy to work on your own projects. ARIES (March 21 to April 19) The often-skeptical Aries might find that an answer to a question is hard to believe. But check it out before you chuck it out. You might well be surprised at what you could learn. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your resolute determination to stick by a position might make some people uncomfortable. But if you’re proved right (as I expect you to be), a lot of changes will tilt in your favor. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might feel conflicted between what you want to do and what you should do. Best advice: Honor your obligations first. Then go ahead and enjoy your well-earned rewards. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) That financial matter still needs to be sorted out before you can consider any major monetary moves. Pressures ease midweek, with news about a potential career change. LEO (July 23 to August 22) A workplace problem threatens to derail your well-planned project. But your quick mind should lead you to a solution and get you back on track without too much delay. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) An opportunity opens up but could quickly close down if you allow pessimism to override enthusiasm. A trusted friend can offer the encouragement you need.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Forget about who’s to blame and, instead, make the first move toward patching up a misunderstanding before it creates a rift that you’ll never be able to cross. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Good news for the travel-loving Sagittarian who enjoys galloping off to new places: That trip you had to put off will soon be back on your schedule. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A mood change could make the gregarious Goat seek the company of just a few friends. But you charge back into the crowd for weekend fun and games. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) A decision you made in good faith could come under fire. Best advice: Open your mind to other possibilities by listening to your challenger’s point of view. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) You can avoid being swamped by all those tasks dangling from your line this week by tackling them one by one, according to priority. The weekend brings good news.

Though it may sound cliche, Fantastic Sam’s Cut & Color in Coventry can truly be summed up in one word, “fantastic”! Guests who venture into this full-service salon, located in an inviting Capestyle home set off Tiogue Avenue, are immediately drawn into a fantastically welcoming, sparkling-clean, sunny and modern space that is full of energy and activity. A close-knit group of experienced and fantastically talented stylists are seen fussing over their clients ~ as invested in making them look their best as if they were family. Those who frequent this salon say this is exactly what separates this salon from others in the Fantastic Sam’s chain ~ it really feels like an extended family here. The staff work closely together, united in their goal to make everyone feel welcome and to do their best work, time after time. Working in this salon requires a great deal more of its stylists than meets the eye. Guests who come to Fantastic Sam’s are not required to have an appointment, so while appointments are highly encouraged, many guests walk in right off the street. It is the expectation of the salon that guests should be served as quickly as possible. Katie Kelly, the salon’s manager, explains that there are always enough stylists on hand to accommodate as many guests as needed; there are, in fact, seven rotating stylists on the team, so there is always someone there to get you in and out as soon as possible. Most importantly, these professional stylists need to be able to work with any type of hair ~ diversity is key here. Long hair, short hair, textured hair, smooth hair, wavy hair, straight hair. Men, women & children of all ages and walks of life are served here. All levels of styling are offered, from basic cuts to the trendy “fashion colors”, foils, perms, “spiral perms” (special wraps), and ombres. Facial wax-

Why Pelvic Floor Therapy is the
Perfect Gift for Mom this Mother’s Day dealing with as a result of giving birth to your children or that you have begun to experience as you age.
Jessica L. PaPa, Pt, dPt Owner Of ArAnciA PhysicAl TherAPy
How Pelvic Floor Therapy can Help Your Mom
We all know we owe our mothers a HUGE thank you for bringing us into this world. And sometimes finding that perfect gift to express our love is a tricky endeavor. From chocolates, necklaces, or that perfect bouquet of flowers, it can be overwhelming to find that perfect gift that adequately conveys your love for your mom without being too cheesy. But if you really want to give your mom a thoughtful and life changing gift this year, you may want to consider gifting her a pelvic floor physical therapy session. In our healthcare system, issues related to the pelvic floor are not commonly discussed, but many women are suffering with pelvic floor related issues. Research performed by the National Institute of Health found that about 25% of women have pelvic floor dysfunction. And as we age this number increases to include about 50% of women by the time we are 80 years old. This is why your mom may appreciate a pelvic floor therapy session more than you can imagine! You are probably wondering what on earth is pelvic floor therapy and why would my mom need that?! Let’s dive in to understand why pelvic floor therapy is so important for women of all ages and how this is the gift that keeps on giving. What is Pelvic Floor Therapy Before we delve into the topic of pelvic floor therapy, it’s important to understand exactly what makes up the pelvic floor. The pelvic floor is a group of muscles, nerves, fascia and organs like your bladder and uterus that sit within your pelvis. A major cause of disruption to the pelvic floor is pregnancy and giving birth. 24% of women who have had two children and 32% of women who have had 3 children report having issues with their pelvic floor. This is in part because giving birth can result in weakness in the muscles, incontinence, prolapse of certain organs, pelvic pain or some combination of all of the above. Hormonal changes related to menopause, obesity, repetitive heavy lifting or straining, and radiation treatments to the pelvic floor can also result in pelvic floor related disorders. Pelvic floor therapy is a healthcare service that was designed to help treat these issues and many more! A pelvic floor therapist will evaluate and assess your individual needs to help you with any issue you may have been
I’m sure at this point you’re wondering exactly how a pelvic floor therapist can help you or your mom with issues like incontinence or pelvic pain. Depending on your individual needs, your pelvic floor physical therapist can help you or your mom learn how to effectively release tension in the pelvic floor and engage and strengthen your pelvic floor muscles to help with bowel or bladder issues and prolapse. If you are having pelvic pain, your pelvic floor therapist may want to help to relax muscles that are tight and bound up in your pelvic floor to alleviate your pain. And if you or your mom have diastasis recti (a.k.a. separated abdominals) or back pain as a result of giving birth, your pelvic floor therapist can help you reduce the pain and strengthen your core to make taking care of your little one that much easier. The Gift that Keeps on Giving Often after having a baby, women just assume that they will have to deal with incontinence or issues with their core for the rest of their lives. This could not be farther from the truth! A pelvic floor therapist can help women of all ages restore function to their pelvic floor and feel strong and healthy in their bodies so they can live life on their terms again. This Mother’s Day it’s time to ditch the box of chocolates or the expensive roses and instead give your mom a gift that will help her keep up with all the busy demands of her life without her body slowing her down. You just may find that offering her a pelvic floor therapy session is the gift that she’ll never forget! As a Myofascial Release Expert and Doctor of Physical Therapy, Dr. Jess specializes in creating a world where the female body is celebrated at every stage. From childbirth to your twilight years, you deserve to be heard, loved, and respected - even by yourself.

It is a chronic, relapsing disease that is more common in females. If untreated, it can lead to joint destruction and deformity. Rheumatoid arthritis is considered a systemic disease, meaning it can cause inflammation to other areas of the body as well. Joints that are commonly affected in RA are the hands (knuckles), wrists, and elbows. You can also develop pain in the feet, ankles, and knees. Rheumatoid arthritis spares the lower and mid-back but can affect the neck. Symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis include joint pain and joint swelling affecting both sides of the body. This pain is worse in the morning and is associated with joint stiffness. This can be described as difficulty making a fist or holding a coffee cup in the morning. The pain improves with activity and throughout the day. Rheumatoid arthritis can cause inflammation in other areas of the body including the lungs, eyes, skin, gastrointestinal tract, and kidneys; which can lead to other symptoms besides joint pain, including shortness of breath, hoarse voice, eye inflammation, or rashes. Diagnosis of Rheumatoid arthritis The diagnostic criteria of rheumatoid arthritis include both symptoms, lab work, and imaging. Symptoms include: • swelling of multiple small joint • swelling of large join • symptoms have been present for > 6 weeks Labs For signs of inflammation in the blood, there are 2

KenT hOsPiTAl inTernAl meDicine resiDenT
tests that are commonly used: • Sedimentation Rate (ESR) • C- Reactive Protein (CRP) These are nonspecific markers of inflammation and they can be elevated in the setting of any illness. These lab tests can also be used to evaluate for disease activity when undergoing treatment.
Acute treatment The acute treatment of rheumatoid arthritis works to treat the active inflammation in the joints. This is done with steroids such as prednisone. This medication works well in the short term to reduce swelling and pain associated with rheumatoid arthritis. It is used at the start of treatment and can be used during flares of the disease. Long-term steroid use, however, is associated with many side effects including infection, weight gain, diabetes and osteoporosis (weak bones), hair loss, high blood pressure, diabetes, and thin skin. Chronic treatment
In correlation with symptoms, these antibodies can point to a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis. Early in the disease, sometimes the lab tests will not be positive. Approximately 10% to 20% of patients diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis have negative antibody tests.
The focus of long-term treatment is to suppress the part of the immune system that is creating antibodies against the joints that leads to inflammation and destruction. This is done by using a class of drugs called DMARDs (disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs). Methotrexate is one of the most common drugs used, but there are other drugs in the DMARD class that can be trialed as well. In severe disease or when Methotrexate is not effective by itself, we add a class of medications call biologic- DMARDs. This is a newer class of injectable drugs that act by targeting very specific areas of the immune system. Examples of biologics include Humira or Enbrel. Non-pharmacologic treatment with physical therapy and occupational therapy is an important part of treatment as well.
Imaging
Osteoarthritis vs. Rheumatoid Arthritis
It is also important to look at x-ray imaging of the joints - especially the hands and feet. Rheumatoid arthritis causes destruction of the joint.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is joint pain due to wear and tear of the joint and break-down of the cartilage. It tends to affect the weight-bearing joints like the knee, hips, and back. It occurs with age, but there is also a genetic component as well. The most important way to prevent and treat osteoarthritis is exercise and weight loss. Strong muscles around the joint will help support the joint and prevent pain and damage.
Other labs tests look at antibody production. This includes: • Rheumatoid factor • CCP antibody
Treatment The goal of treatment is to improve pain and swelling of the joints to prevent joint destruction.

“Do You Need A New Roof?
If So, I Bet The Last Thing You Want To Do RIGHT NOW Is Spend $15,000-$25,000 Or More On A New Roof!” Call the Roof Assistance Hotline at 401-954-9012 to learn how you may qualify to replace your old roof for $5,000-$6,000 of your own personal funds, regardless of roof size. This is not a loan or a grant so there is no application to fill out and no home appraisal required. Qualifying is strictly based on a free assessment of your current roof. Who this program is for: 1. Homeowners with medium, large or extra-large roofs 2. This program is not based on financial hardship. In fact, many homeowners that we assist are considered somewhat affluent 3. Homeowners with a roof that is between 10-35 years old are ideal 1. 2. 3. 4.
Who this program is NOT for:
Homeowners with smaller than average roofs Homeowners that have replaced sections of their roof over the years, piece by piece Homeowners with roofs that are less than 10 years old Homeowners that a have a roof in absolutely terrible condition that probably needed to be replaced many, many years ago
“I received something indicating that it was possible to replace my roof for a fraction of the actual cost. Now, my roof was over 13 years old and I thought no way, but what the hell I’ll call and find out more. Best phone call I have ever made. These guys have a system that was a joy to watch. I could go on and on I mean these guys saved me $15,000. So do yourself a favor, if you need a new roof call them first.” Brian Bouthillier – North Kingstown, R.I.

The door to the shop Music Magick ~ Movies & More swings opens as new customer Julie Duggan steps inside. Immediately Duggan is transported in time to the 1970’s when she hears the iconic Allman Brothers Band’s song “Melissa” playing in the background. The bluesy voices of brothers Gregg and Duane fill the air in this unique shop in West Warwick. Music has a way of transcending time and place, bringing you back to those moments in your life that exist only in your memories. Music Magick is the brainchild and second home to its owner Marc Ciora, a music lover and collector of CD’s and DVD’s that have now found a second life in his shop on Main Street. Marc opened this eclectic haven for all things mu-
sic and movies six months ago, but it is not his first time around the block in the business. This is Marc’s second shop where he sells and buys gently-used CD’s and DVD’s ~ his first shop was located in North Providence where it stood for nearly twenty years! Today, Marc’s passion for music, movies, and collecting continue here in our neck of the woods. His shop is a time capsule where shoppers can explore the shelves for literally hours, perusing through their memories like the pages of a book. Music Magick is home to over 10,000 titles of virtually every music genre. If you are a fan of Rock & Roll, you will find your favorite recording artists here. If you are a fan of Jazz, Hip Hop, Folk or

The list of CD’s goes on and on ~ and Marc is here to help you find the ones you love. Marc explains, “We don’t call it Music Magick for nothing!” It is almost as if some other force guides Marc to what his customers are looking for, connecting them with the memories that music evokes. He knows his inventory and will direct you to where you can find that long lost CD from your past! The BEST thing of all at Music Magick is that everything costs only TWO dollars!!! That includes all the DVD’s as well! The DVD selection at Music Magick is equally as impressive, topping 5,000 copies. Think about all the classic films that are nearly impossible to find anywhere else. Come here to find the unforgettable films that have defined every moment of your life. The breadth of films include the Vintage “oldie but goodies” to Westerns, Dramas, Adventure, Family films and SO much more!

• On May 13, 1607, some 100 English colonists arrive along the east bank of the James River in Virginia to found Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement in North America. Dispatched from England by the London Company, they had sailed across the Atlantic aboard the Susan Constant, Godspeed and Discovery. • On May 14, 1796, Edward Jenner, an English country doctor, administers the world’s first vaccination as a preventive treatment for smallpox. Scientists following Jenner’s model developed new vaccines to fight diseases such as polio, whooping cough, measles and tetanus. • On May 12, 1932, the body of aviation hero Charles Lindbergh’s baby is found, more than two months after he was kidnapped from his family’s Hopewell, New Jersey, mansion. Kidnapping was made a federal crime in the aftermath of this high-profile crime. • On May 15, 1942, gasoline rationing begins in 17 eastern states to aid the American war effort during World War II. By the end of the year, President Franklin Roosevelt had made gas rationing mandatory in all 48 states. • On May 9, 1960, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approves the world’s first commercially produced birth-control pill, Enovid-10, made by the G.D. Searle Company of Chicago. Clinical tests of the pill had begun in 1954. • On May 10, 1980, Treasury Secretary G. William Miller announces the approval of nearly $1.5 billion in federal loan guarantees for the nearly bankrupt Chrysler Corporation, at the time the largest rescue package ever by the U.S. government to an American corporation. The loan terms required Chrysler to raise another $2 billion on its own. • On May 11, 1997, chess grandmaster Garry Kasparov resigns after 19 moves in a game against Deep Blue, a chess-playing computer developed by IBM scientists. It was the sixth and final game of their match, which Kasparov lost two games to one, with three draws. © 2022 Hearst Communications, Inc. All Rights Reserved
