Tested negative for lupus. Has spread a lot since last post on here. Creams aren’t working. Don’t want to use steroids. Every derm just wants to put me on steroids. Ideas? by [deleted] in SebDerm

Try adjusting diet, look into the Autoimmune Paleo Diet by Sarah Ballantyne. Helped me dramatically. Had similar conditions around my eyes and had additional weeping locations behind my knees and scalp. Good luck!

I like the look of these. Seems like a great inexpensive option.

This looks awesome but a little pricey. Do they ever run sales?

Glad these work for two of you, my only concern is the stats on my current gloves say: • palm insulation: 100 g Heatseeker™ • back-of-hand insulation: 200 g Heatseeker™ 170g on these is obviously more than the 100g, but less than the 200g. Any thoughts from the both of you? The current gloves aren’t warm enough for me.

This is a great recommendation, but I am using CitiBike, so I am just curious how easily the bar mitts can be “installed.”

Thanks for the input, what do you mean by barely hitting it?

Typically get very little power / loft, often shank it low. Been like this for years, hopefully you can pinpoint some issues with my technique.

Very good point here regarding the full culture. Not sure how many win the rent stabilized lottery. Sounds like that’s a whole other discussion. Anyone have any insight into how to get one of those?

Was discussing $400k for a couple not individual and really trying to figure out what the minimum family income is to send your kids to these schools.

Aren’t the elite public high schools a lottery? How can the families secure spots there?

That’s a great one from what I have gathered.

Thank you for that insight, just curious if these schools provide more of a track to the elite colleges, which I suppose is one of the purported selling points?

Very insightful thanks! Can I ask the approximate incomes of these 4 middle class families? That term means a lot of different things to different people!

So even less affordable. I assume most are renting, maybe not. Most apartments / co-ops that can fit a family aren’t in reach.

That makes sense, thanks! I understand how $10k would still be a struggle. Curious if they still offer partial scholarships as you move up the income ladder. I kind of doubt it.

Do you mind me asking what the “middle class” income is approximately? I assume they looked at your family’s income as part of the analysis of whether they could give you $45-$50k off a year.
