Psych Central’s Senior New Editor Rick Nauert discussed a few days ago a new study in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior that says women find it especially stressful to receive work-related communication at home, even when the phone calls or emails are within the working hours they defined. Much more so than men. Meaning, if the boss emails or calls a guy, even if it’s outside normal working hours, the typical male doesn’t think much of it, takes care of it, no problem. A woman? Even it happens within 9 to 5, she frets a little. Why? Think long and hard, even if you aren’t Catholic… Guilt. And here it is again … Guilt. Guilt. Guilt. Boy do I know that feeling. B...

Recently I’ve had two people remove me as a friend on Facebook. Like that feels good. Was it my annoying status updates? The singing video that I uploaded (“A Few of My Favorite Things” … check it out )? I know I was off-key. Oh, the picture of the old lady that I posted and said it was me. You are that old lady? Geez… Sorry. Frankly I don’t know what’s worse: the e-mails and the phone calls that aren’t returned, or the letter (or really painful conversation) explaining why the friendship is toxic and needs to be terminated. It all feels the same: REJECTION. Like you’re back in the sixth grade again, with bad acne, and the boys want to date your pretty...

First we learned how it was the end of privacy and no less a man than the head of Facebook (who might have some self-interest involved) noted that the age of privacy was over earlier this year. Of course that’s in Facebook’s best interests to make you believe privacy is “over.” Zuckerberg claimed, without a shred of scientific evidence or data, that lack of privacy is now a societal norm. (Apparently when nobody was looking, Zuckerberg got his Ph.D. and did some sociological or epidemiological research.) Nothing could be further from the truth — privacy is very much a societal norm. It’s also a personal and private decision most of us make on a daily basis. For example: How much do I te...

Whether it’s the comfy couches, mellow tunes, or free wi-fi that reels you in, you’re bound to stick around for a while and grab a little nosh. Since coffee shops serve way more than coffee these days, it helps to have a little know-how to help you stay on track with your diet. Check out my video for coffee house healthy eating tips. It’s sure to “charge up” your next visit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDvvVmLXsbE Be careful of the “silent sabotagers” – coffee beverages. Many drinks can have the calorie and fat value of desserts. A large whole milk mocha will set you back 400 calories and almost half your daily limit of saturated fat. If you’re the kind who likes a little coffee with your sugar, try to think “less.” Use less swe...

She has been in the second stage of labour for nearly an hour. She declined an epidural and has had a lot of pain. She is very tired, and becoming emotional. The baby's head is not coming down. She is being managed by John, an experienced consultant obstetrician, who she knows well. John thinks he has a good relationship with Anne. He delivered her first baby. He advises Anne that he needs to assist the delivery by using forceps. With her consent, he gives her a pudendal block and puts the forceps on the baby's head. He starts to pull gently and steadily and thankfully the baby's head comes down relatively easily. He reaches the stage where he knows that one more contraction, one more pull and the bab...

Codeine, the active drug in many cough mixtures, is used by drug addicts as a substitute for hard drugs. The discovery was made by a Health Ministry team yesterday, when it raided a pharmacy in New Town here. The team discovered that up to 1,000 codeine tablets a week had been sold to the coffee shop. Initial investigations revealed that the coffee shop owner had been adding the tablets into his drinks to give his customers an &#822...
