Jackie Robinson Day at Dodger Stadium
Dodger Stadium will be decorated with prominently placed 42 logos on the pitching mound, dugout, near the foul pole and baselines. There will also be Jackie Robinson Day jeweled bases and lineup cards and a special tribute video that will be shown in-stadium. The Dodgers' uniformed personnel will all wear number 42. The Dodgers will be joined by Jackie's wife Rachel, Sharon and Jackie's son David Robinson. The Dodgers will also pay tribute to Dodger Hall of Fame catcher and three-time NL MVP Award winner Roy Campanella and Dodger Special Advisor to the Chairman, 1956 NL MVP and Cy Young Award Winner Don Newcombe.
The 17-member choir of Dodger owner Earvin "Magic" Johnson's church home, West Angeles Church of God In Christ, will sing the national anthem. Kelley Jakle, the great-granddaughter of Branch Rickey, Brooklyn Dodgers' General Manager who signed Jackie Robinson, will sing "God Bless America."
The ceremonial first pitch will be thrown by Academy Award® nominee Harrison Ford who stars in Warner Bros. Pictures "42" as Brooklyn Dodgers' GM Branch Rickey. Sharon Robinson will officially start the game with "It's Time for Dodger Baseball!"
Tomorrow's Veterans of the Game are two members of the Tuskegee Airmen, the first African American military aviators in the U.S. military, Lieutenant Colonel Theodore Lumpkin of Los Angeles and Major Levy Thorn Hill of Virginia.
Dodger owner Earvin "Magic" Johnson will host several celebrities and local government dignitaries at a pregame reception (4:30 p.m. – 6:30 pm.). Additionally, more than 200 Dodger fans who purchased a special $42 ticket will attend a Loge Terrace reception (5:10 p.m. – 7:10 p.m.) with Dodger alumni Dennis Powell, Derrel Thomas, "Sweet Lou" Johnson, Maury Wills, Tommy Davis and Ron Cey. Johnson will also visit with these fans.
Sharon Robinson will hold a book signing of her new book, "Jackie Robinson: American Hero," from the first through third innings in the Right Field tent store.
The first 40,000 fans in attendance will receive a Jackie Robinson, Don Newcombe and Roy Campanella Statue presented by the film "42" in theatres now.

Can you still get a 42$ ticket? And is it going to be there at the stadium?

@abel - It's at the stadium. You should call and ask if there is remaining tickets.

KiNA's little corner ^^
Just something I've been doing .. All sig are free for use. No string attached. Just dont go around saying that you made them ... I wont do any request, sig is released as is.
All I asked is that you'll tell me which one you want and where you plan to use it. Cookies/+rep for it is encouraged but not necessary. I do this for the fun of making sig. Fair enough? Oh, you can butcher them too if you so wish, I get a good laugh at them and learn from the mistake you'll point
Why I'm doing this? well, sigmaking became a hobby.. and instead of me go around changing sig everyday, might as well release it for public use. Some would be totally out of my personality that I'll never be able to use it as my sig anyway.. Girlish style sig comes to mind . Some would be too ecchi for some peoples .. Cant help there .. I frequent /e/ in 4chan's a lot .. beside /hr/ .. Dont like it, dont come preaching to my ears.
Sig styles would vary, as I like experimenting .. Some style would be whored to death.. some would be plain failure .. some would be animated if I feel so bored ...I'll try to keep it within suki forum rules (if able) ...
I'll update the 1st post so I can marvel at my masterpieces as I made them .. or not Feel free to comment ^^
First up ... Rukia's sig, I've released this on bleach av/sig request thread before.. but totally forgot to check back if anyone claim it
2nd, Kallen of Code Geas .. 2nd choice girl after CC, she's a first choice girl in earlier episodes for me.. then her character gets butchered to be a Zero's fangirl .. >.< .. would not be too bad if she was to become KiNA's fangirl tho
Probably her best scene so far in CG .. IMHO
3rd, Tomoko of Canvas2 .. the other girl I drool in canvas2 .. I've never watch the show tho .. prolly would equal Saaya if it wasnt for the loli tag tho >.<
Edit Post #8
Revy of Black Lagoon. Filter work + a little brushing + smudging. GODDD I hate smudging work =/. I sux at it.
Edit post #10

Crystal Maiden from the DotA game
erm, ..no, dont expect me to pay tribute to sexy beach 3 game here
Haruno Sakura from Naruto .. post timeskip Sakura is pure .. well, still cant beat my fishnet Temari tho .. but overall HOT
It seems that I'm addicted to c4d renders! O_O
edit post #14
Fatechan of Nanoha Why do she have different body? sometimes a loli body.. sometime she's a fine "droolable" babe? Keep her in droolable state laaa
edit post #15
Wow.. just wow, never expected to be making a sig of him, honestly.. I'm more of a fanboy to his bro D: ... well, anyway, still, capture his personality and determination there... Oh, that quote wasnt suppose to be readable.. its I avenge my clan anyway :O
edit post #18
Signum of Nanoha.. the other girl apart from adult Fatechan .. the others are rori .. Roricon = BAD
Poor poor Athrun.. He's lucky Cagalli and Kira are twins .. Thats why he is an emo kid in GSDisaster.
edit post #19
Nerinechan .. Cause someone keep asking me to make one or he wont come and comment!
edit #21

Hahaha.. actually, my ISP going wonky on me tonite .. I actually wanted to play dota online.. but what the heck >.< .. Have a chibi Ama.. pure innocence, no BG work ... LOLOLOLOLOL
edit post #27
A level up to the above sig.. Just slapping some pictures together and called it my sig.. I'm sooo cool =x
edit post #31
LenaLee of D.Gray-Man .. or RinaRii @_@ .. So hard to search for this beauty's picture... Luckily, a good anon under nick HAL9000 provide some of his MT stash over at 4chan.. Blessed him for that
edit post #33
Please welcome the guy who gets the unexpected power level up to continue Bleach saga ....
j/k.. Ikkaku is soo coool ^^
edit post #36

Haven't see you post in this section for a while, it's good to see you are back.
Anyway, from the ones you posted here so far, the Canvas 2 one is the best IMO; Never got around to watch that show though.

@ Skane .. Hai Haiz .. After I clear out all my animes to empty dvds.. I'll consider Canvas 2
@ BigDave .. , strangely, none of the signature display here is done with brush BG .. except the 1st Rukia sig.
No time to make a sig yesterday... Probably no time to make one today as well :'(
Edit : Scratch that .. here's something I cooked up recently ... Seeing DK keep bombarding this forum with his Fatechan I figure i tried myself to do one myself.
Sorry if she goes out of personality in this sig ..she kinda look a tad evil as I cant bring myself to watch loli filled anime >.< Altho, I must admit, signum makes it really tempting to watch

Time Passes Quickly
I'm back in America now. World Tour 2010 is officially over and done. I'm hardly finished with touring this year. I have a new book coming out in September, Sex, Sin, and Zen: A Buddhist Exploration of Sex from Celibacy to Polyamory and Everything in Between, and one I edited and co-wrote with Nishijima Roshi, Fundamental Wisdom of the Middle Way: Nagarjuna's Mulamadhyamakakarika. So I'll have a lot of touring to do ahead of me once those come out.
Still, it's a weird feeling to be done with something that, before I started on it seemed overwhelmingly big. It reminds me of the words you see written on the hans -- wood boards pounded to call people to zazen -- at Soto Zen monasteries all over the world.
Shou ji ji dai
Mu jou jin soku
Kou in oshimu beshi
Toki hitowo matazu
Great is the matter of Birth and death;
Life slips quickly by;
To waste time is a great shame;
Time waits for no one;
There are various other translations. At Tassajara they have a different English translation on each han.
It's astounding how quickly even the most amazing events of your life are over and gone. I had a great time seeing the world. I sat zazen in places I never even thought I'd visit. It's a truly incredible world. I'd have a hard time picking out any highlights because it was a trip filled with nothing but highlights. I kept a diary every day of the tour. So one of these days I'm sure there'll be a book about it.
One of my great problems in life is that I'm the kind of person who feels like he always has to be doing something. I don't relax easily. Zazen for me has been, in part, a way to relax and still not feel like I'm wasting time. Vacations are not fun for me because they feel like a waste of time. I want to always be making some kind of progress.
Of course, this is an illusion. But we all have our illusions. The funny thing about Zen practice is that it will show you that your illusions are illusions. And that is a very big deal. That is tremendously helpful. Most people never get that at all.
But zazen will not get rid of your illusions. It shows them for what they are. But it's up to you to do something about that.
What I'm gonna do about it is zazen. In just over a week I'll be at the Great Sky Zen Sesshin. Registration is closed, so you can't sign up anymore. But think of it this way. Gempo Roshi charges folks $50,000 for five days in his presence based on the idea that five days with an "Enlightened Master" will help you make years of progress in just a few days. Well there are five (5) Masters at Great Sky, all with the same Zen credentials as Genpo has, the same level of recognition as an "Enlightened Master." And you get seven, not five, days with ALL FIVE OF US for a twentieth of Genpo's price! Think of how much progress that will get you! What an incredible bargain!!! Someone ought to do the calculations to see how much money you save!
Anyway, after Great Sky I'm heading for Tassajara where I will spend a month or so as a work-practice student. So I'll be up at 4:30 AM and in bed at 8:30 for the next five or six weeks. Zazen every day. Meal chants at every meal. Assigned work schedules. Lots of restrictions and regulations. And I am doing all of this voluntarily when I could be doing pretty much anything else. I'm a writer for Christ's sake! We can do our work getting up at two in the afternoon and staying in pajamas all day! We can even do it dead drunk.
I got no boss. I got no time clock. I'm living the dream, baby! Flying around the world, hanging out with exotic and weird people, eating bizarre food, the whole ball of wax!
Yet I am choosing deliberately to put myself in a position that is very much like the nine-to-five work-a-day grind I spent so much time, effort and energy to finally escape from. Why would anyone do such a thing?
I think the reason so many human beings do the kind of routine drudgery we all complain so much about is because we like it. We like stability and routines. We don't want to live like we're on vacation 24/7. Most writers I know have to force themselves to follow weird artificial strategies in order to simulate what "normal" folks deal with all the time -- what I dealt with until a couple years ago. It's the only way most of us get anything done. This recent tour got me so out of my routines that I feel like I need something fairly drastic to get back on track.
What this means to you folks out there is that this blog will be going on hiatus for a while. You won't see many postings here between mid August and mid September. There's no Internet access at Hokyoji or Tassajara. Maybe I can find a way to phone in entries. I don't know. But more likely the blog will just go dark for a while.
I'm not going away yet. But that's a heads up to let you know what's in store.
Gotta run! See ya!
P.S. The photo this time was taken while driving in to Tassajara two years ago during the big fires there. It's completely unretouched and un-Photoshopped.

A Sandwich A Day: Bimbibao Bun at BaoBQ
A new sandwich every day.
In this great city of ours, one could eat a different sandwich every day of the year—so that's what we'll do. Here's A Sandwich a Day, our daily look at sandwiches around New York. Got a sandwich we should check out? Let us know.—The Mgmt.
West Village spot BaoBQ specializes in a super affordable spread of Vietnamese street eats, including fun-sized steamed buns. Banh mi and lunch combo meals aside, the bao make an enticing appearance on the rather long-winded menu. At three dollars a pop, you can get a few, with room to spare for a side or two.
The bimbibao bun ($3) is a tasty melange of pulled pork, kimchi, and hot bean sauce. In other words, it's an Asian take on a classic American staple, the pulled pork sandwich. Spicy kimchi adds some necessary spice to the bao, which despite featuring tender, well-cooked pork, could use a bit more more flavor. A sprig of cilantro and a surprise slice of jalapeno also keep it a bit more interesting, and within the Vietnamese flavor spectrum.
The bao is marketed as having "bulgogi-style pulled pork", although it should be noted that Korean-style bulgogi generally refers to beef, and a certain marinated barbecue flavor. Nomenclature aside, the boas here still go down easy, especially when paired with one of the refreshingly simple green papaya salads.

{Claps}. Bravo!
That is great!Another person (i think it was on here) used a Mega1284, which was probably easier relatively speaking. One thing-there is a VGAout library somewhere. You might be able to output to a vga screen and have a command line!
Simply awesome!!!But why didn't you use a SPI RAM extension?
Where is the source? ;-)Would like to give it a try..Very interesting to use a 64kb area on sd card to mimick ram memory.I assume the 4 floppy images are dd-ed on 4 partitions of the sd card?Please keep this code as a separate (version 1) project, before you introduce ps/2 kb und display.thx,Peter
Thx. Would be glad if you upload also your sd card image so that one can write it directly with dd on a card.Peter
I've got stm32duino (stm32F103zet6 board) with 64kB internal and 512kB of external sram (wired via FSMC). The 512kB of sram could be used for the heap. I can allocate the 64kB of CP/M's RAM with malloc() in that 512kB space easily.So I may try to run your code on it, when available..FYI: External sram on stm32duino

WASHINGTON (AP) — The highest earning Americans would pay a top rate of 23.8% for capital gains and dividends next year under a $272 billion, one-year extension of tax cuts that Senate Democrats are circulating among themselves.
A draft of the proposal shows that Democrats would keep income tax rates where they currently are for families earning below $250,000 a year and individuals making less than $200,000, as President Barack Obama has proposed. Obama and Democrats would let the tax cuts enacted a decade ago on those earning more than that expire, leaving them facing a top income tax bracket of 39.6%t.
The draft provides initial details of a bill that Democratic lawmakers have been describing in more general terms for months, and mostly follows Obama proposals. The measure is an embodiment of Obama's re-election theme that it is only fair for the wealthy to contribute to efforts to reduce federal deficits.
About 98 per of households earn under $250,000 yearly. Boosting taxes on those earning above that amount would raise around $800 billion over the coming decade, the Treasury Department has estimated — a tiny fraction of the budget deficits expected during that same period.
Democratic aides have said the Senate will debate the legislation as early as next week. Minority Republicans who say the tax increases will hinder job creation are virtually certain to derail the measure by forcing Democrats to produce 60 votes to prevail, which they will not be able to do.
When the debate occurs, Republicans are expected to offer their own measure extending the tax cuts for a year for everyone. The GOP-run House is expected to vote the week of July 30 on legislation renewing the tax cuts for everybody for a year and establishing a process aimed at pressuring Congress to overhaul the entire tax code next year.
Democrats plan a Senate vote this week on a separate, far smaller bill that they hope will send a message to voters.
A measure by Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., would forbid companies from deducting the expenses of moving workers or operations overseas from the U.S., and offer a 20 percent credit for the costs of shifting workers back home. GOP aides said Republicans were still deciding how to respond to the roughly $90 million bill, but passage seemed unlikely.
The draft of Senate Democrats' broader tax-cut extension bill would set the top rates on capital gains and dividend income at 20 percent in 2013, with Obama's health care law adding another 3.8 percent for the highest earners. The top rate on both those sources of income is currently 15 percent.
Under current law, the rate on long-term capital gains is to rise to 20 percent next year, the same as in the Senate Democratic bill.
But Obama had proposed letting the top rate on dividends revert to 43.4 percent, including the additional 3.8 percent from the health care law. The draft Democratic legislation cuts that proposal nearly in half.
The Senate Democratic bill would also:
—Gradually end the personal exemption for households making over $250,000, and limit their itemized deductions;
—Impose a maximum 45 percent estate tax on estates worth more than $3.5 million. Currently there is a top rate of 35 percent on estates worth over $5.1 million;
—Extend the $1,000 child tax credit and the $2,500 American Opportunity Tax Credit for a year;
—Adjust the alternative minimum tax for inflation for another year so millions of additional taxpayers would avoid the extra levies, which were originally designed to assure that the wealthy do not escape taxation.

Budget Talks Appear to Pick Up Steam

Photographer's Note
It is the temple of Lord Shiva. I captured this shot in my home town, i.e in Berhampore. It is almost 300 years old temple with three layers at top. All the layer are filled with nice art of terracotta. The name of this temple is 'Byaspur Shiv Mandir'. The colour of this temple is originally not like that you can see in my main photo. It was restored and recoloured latter. I tried to show you the ORIGINAL COLOUR IN WORKSHOP. Please See It. Hope you like these shot.
PS- Due to network problem I couldn't write the note earlier. I am sorry for that.

Sometimes it is worth going for a closed framed and detailed shot, so that we can see how elaborate the artwork is, just as on this image
Have a nice day JY

Namaste Subhendu,
The work of carving of this front of the temple is impressive, and you have caught it very well in this framing in low-angle shot.
The light was very difficult, but you have obtained a good graphical and chromatic result.
The complementary photo of the WS is also very interesting due to its different framing and to the original color.
It's a good work, my friend.
Best regards,

beautiful detail of this ancient temple devoted to the God Shiva. Thanks to the perfect photographic quality it is possible to appreciate the details of these sculptures, pleasantly colored. I have seen the WS, but perhaps these colors are more beautiful, even if less ancient.
Ciao, have a nice Sunday!

Namaste Subhendu,
wooowww! Impressive details on the beautiful façade. I wonder how long it took to complete this artwork. I like your composition, the tight framing and the colors. The image in ws is a nice variation. Well done!
delpeoples (60326) 2010-05-17 20:22
Hi Subhendu, even in thumbnail, this photo stood out. The rich colour and details are excellent. Im sure you've noticed the slight over-exposure at the top, but given your POV it was very difficult to avoid and certainly does not damage the photo. TFS and I wish you a wonderful week, Lisa
Namaste Subhendu,
An architectural detail with the rather pleasant sweetened colors. I will have perhaps accentuated contrasts on the level of the lights to accentuate the reliefs of this carved scene. But it is a detail because symmetrical framing is effective. Interesting glance and thank you Subhendu for the instructive note.
With all my friendships and with soon,

LOS ANGELES, Calif. - NBC is pulling the drama series "Do No Harm" after two low-rated episodes.
The show is a take on the story of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and stars Steven Pasquale of "Rescue Me." He plays a respected neurosurgeon who turns into a dangerous alter ego each night. Other cast members include Alana De La Garza and Phylicia Rashad.
"Do No Harm" started with a historically small audience for a major network debut and then dropped further in its second Thursday airing.
NBC will replace "Do No Harm" with reruns of "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" for the next two weeks.

China's soaring demand for ultra high temperature pasteurized milk offers an export opportunity for U.S. suppliers, and U.S. Dairy Export Council is ready to help processors capture that market.
Called UHT milk, it has a shelf life of six to nine months. Consumption of UHT milk in China jumped from nearly 18 million pounds in 2010 to 331 million pounds forecast for this year. Demand scenarios suggest China's appetite for imported UHT milk could grow fourfold to more than 1.3 billion pounds by 2020, according to a new USDEC study.
The Chinese UHT import market was worth $76 million in 2012. In just the first six months of 2013, that value topped $85 million. China is the largest packaged fluid milk importer in the world, and it is growing, the study found.
China is not a huge buyer of skim milk powder, cheese or whey — commodity products that are helping to push U.S. exports to 20 percent of domestic milk production — but it has become a big buyer of UHT milk, said Ross Christieson, USDEC senior vice president of market research and analysis.
The U.S. produces about 2 million tons annually of UHT dairy beverages, such as Coffee-mate and Nesquick products and milk for fast food restaurants, but has only played a minor role in supplying China's booming demand for the product, he said.
Producing UHT milk for the Chinese market would grow exports with a value-added, branded product, and Chinese buyers have expressed growing interest in the U.S. supply to meet its demand, he said.
Christieson said he expects a greater push for the U.S. industry to expand UHT milk processing capacity. Capturing any of China's demand for UHT milk is at least a year away, he said.
Most U.S. processors he's talked with are interested in the Chinese market, as well as other Asian markets. As yet, however, they haven't found the right combination of pricing, product mix and purchasing partners, he said.
"They need to understand the building blocks to get business done in China, and we can help them," he said.
Finding the right partners is key, and understanding China's regulatory environment, which is often daunting to U.S. exporters, is also important, he said.
Part of the drive for UHT is the quality issue China has had in its dairy industry The country has also been unable to produce enough milk to meet domestic demand, he said.
At the heart of all growing global food demand, however, is economic growth. And dairy is almost universally considered the best food product available, he said.
To gain a larger share of the foreign imported UHT sector, U.S. suppliers need to develop products that better match Chinese expectations. For example, U.S. UHT milk is primarily consumed in half-pint and pint boxes and bottles, but the Chinese UHT market is dominated by 1-liter boxes, according to USDEC's research.
In addition, the U.S. industry needs to build capacity dedicated to exports that is closer to shipping points, as well as find a way to offer more competitive pricing for longer-term contracts, Christieson said.
The opportunity for U.S. dairy is broader than strictly UHT milk and China. USDEC also sees potential in other Asian markets, including the Philippines, and for additional products such as UHT cream and lactic acid beverages.

Atopic Dermatitis (Eczema)
(Atopic Eczema; Infantile Eczema)
(See also Definition of Dermatitis.)
Atopic dermatitis primarily affects children in urban areas or developed countries, and prevalence has increased over the last 30 years; up to 20% of children and 1 to 3% of adults in developed countries are affected. Most people with the disorder develop it before age 5, many of them before age 1. The unproven hygiene hypothesis is that decreased early childhood exposure to infectious agents (ie, because of more rigorous hygiene regimens at home) may increase the development of atopic disorders and autoimmunity to self-proteins; many patients or family members who have atopic dermatitis also have asthma or allergic rhinitis.
All of the following contribute to the development of atopic dermatitis (AD):
Genes implicated in AD are those encoding epidermal and immunologic proteins. A major predisposing factor for AD is the existence in many patients of a mutation in the gene encoding for the filaggrin protein, which is a component of the cornified cell envelope produced by differentiating keratinocytes.
Known epidermal barrier defects in skin affected by AD also include decreased ceramides and antimicrobial peptides and increased transepidermal water loss, which increase penetration of environmental irritants and allergens, and microbes, triggering inflammation and sensitization.
In acute AD lesions, Th2 T cell cytokines (interleukin [IL]-4, IL-5, IL-13) predominate, whereas in chronic lesions Th1 T cell cytokines (IFN-gamma, IL-12) are present. Numerous other cytokines, including thymic stromal lipoprotein, CCL17, and CCL22, play a role in the inflammatory reaction in AD. New treatments targeting specific cytokines are helping to identify the specific immune pathways in AD.
Common environmental triggers include
Symptoms and Signs
Atopic dermatitis usually appears in infancy, typically by 3 months.
In the acute phase, lesions are red, edematous, scaly patches or plaques that may be weepy. Occasionally vesicles are present.
In the chronic phase, scratching and rubbing create skin lesions that appear dry and lichenified.
Distribution of lesions is age specific. In infants, lesions characteristically occur on the face, scalp, neck, and extensor surfaces of the extremities. In older children and adults, lesions occur on flexural surfaces such as the neck, and the antecubital and popliteal fossae.
Intense pruritus is a key feature. Itch often precedes lesions, and itch worsens with allergen exposures, dry air, sweating, local irritation, wool garments, and emotional stress.
Secondary bacterial infections (superinfections), especially staphylococcal and streptococcal infections (eg, cellulitis and regional lymphadenitis) are common. Exfoliative dermatitis can develop.
Eczema herpeticum (also called Kaposi varicelliform eruption) is a diffuse Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) Infections occurring in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD). It manifests as grouped vesicles in areas of active or recent dermatitis, although normal skin can be involved. High fever and adenopathy may develop after several days. Occasionally, this infection can become systemic, which may be fatal. Sometimes the eye is involved, causing a painful corneal lesion.
Fungal and nonherpetic viral skin infections (eg, common warts, molluscum contagiosum) can also occur.
Patients with long-standing AD may develop cataracts in their 20s or 30s.
Frequent use of topical products exposes patients to many potential allergens, and contact dermatitis caused by these products may aggravate and complicate AD, as may the generally dry skin that is common among these patients.
Diagnosis of atopic dermatitis is clinical. See table: Diagnostic Clinical Features in Atopic Dermatitis* for the modified clinically relevant diagnostic criteria proposed by the American Academy of Dermatology in 2003.
Atopic dermatitis is often hard to differentiate from other dermatoses (eg, seborrheic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, nummular dermatitis, psoriasis), although a family history of atopy and the distribution of lesions are helpful. The following distribution patterns can help with differentiation:
Psoriasis is usually extensoral rather than flexural, may involve the fingernails, and has a thicker and whiter (micaceous) scale.
Seborrheic dermatitis affects the face (eg, nasolabial folds, eyebrows, glabellar region, scalp) most commonly.
Nummular dermatitis is not flexural, and lichenification is rare.
Because patients can still develop other skin disorders, not all subsequent skin problems should be attributed to atopic dermatitis (AD).

There is no definitive laboratory test for AD. However, precipitating environmental allergens of AD can be identified with skin testing, measurement of allergen-specific IgE levels, or both. Routine cultures for S. aureus are not done because that organism is present in skin lesions of > 75% of AD patients (vs in < 25% of unaffected people). However, nasal and skinfold cultures are done in patients with recurrent, unresponsive, and possibly antimicrobial-resistant infections.
Atopic dermatitis in children often abates by age 5 years, although exacerbations are common throughout adolescence and into adulthood. Girls and patients with severe disease, early age of onset, family history, and associated allergic rhinitis or asthma are more likely to have prolonged disease. Even in these patients, atopic dermatitis (AD) frequently resolves or lessens significantly by adulthood. AD may have long-term psychologic sequelae as children confront the many challenges of living with a visible, sometimes disabling, skin disease during their formative years.
Treatment of atopic dermatitis can usually be given at home, but patients who have exfoliative dermatitis, cellulitis, or eczema herpeticum may need to be hospitalized.

Supportive care
Skin care involves the following measures:
Bathing should not be done more than once daily. Bathing with diluted bleach 2 times/week plus nasal application of mupirocin can reduce S. aureus colonization and decrease the severity of atopic dermatitis (AD) (1). Colloidal oatmeal is sometimes soothing. When toweling dry, the skin should be blotted or patted dry rather than rubbed.
Moisturizers (ointments such as white petrolatum or hydrophilic petrolatum [unless the patient is allergic to lanolin] or thick creams) are applied immediately after bathing to help retain skin moisture and reduce itching.
Wet wraps (a topical corticosteroid or immunomodulator applied to wet skin, wrapped with a moist layer, and then overlaid with a dry layer) are helpful for severe, thick, and recalcitrant lesions.
Oral antihistamines can help relieve pruritus via their sedating properties. Options include hydroxyzine 25 mg 3 times a day or 4 times a day (for children, 0.5 mg/kg every 6 hours or 2 mg/kg in a single bedtime dose) and diphenhydramine 25 to 50 mg at bedtime. Low-sedating H1 receptor blockers (such as loratadine 10 mg once a day, fexofenadine 60 mg 2 times a day or 180 mg once a day, and cetirizine 5 to 10 mg once a day) may be useful, although their efficacy has not been defined. Doxepin (a tricyclic antidepressant also with H1 and H2 receptor blocking activity) 25 to 50 mg at bedtime may also help, but its use is not recommended for children < 12 years. Fingernails should be cut short to minimize excoriations and secondary infections.
Avoidance of precipitating factors
Household antigens can be controlled by the following measures:
Using synthetic fiber pillows and impermeable mattress covers
Washing bedding in hot water
Removing upholstered furniture, soft toys, carpets, and pets (to reduce dust mites and animal dander)
Using air circulators equipped with high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters in bedrooms and other frequently occupied living areas
Using dehumidifiers in basements and other poorly aerated, damp rooms (to reduce molds)
Reduction of emotional stress is useful but often difficult. Extensive dietary changes intended to eliminate exposure to allergenic foods are unnecessary and probably ineffective; food hypersensitivities rarely persist beyond childhood.
Topical corticosteroids are the mainstay of therapy. Creams or ointments applied twice daily are effective for most patients with mild or moderate disease. Moisturizers are liberally applied after corticosteroid applications to all skin. Systemic corticosteroids should be avoided whenever possible, because disease rebound is often severe and topical therapy is safer. Prolonged topical use can lead to thinning of the skin and striae. Prolonged, widespread use of high-potency corticosteroid creams or ointments should be avoided in infants because adrenal suppression may ensue.
Other therapies
Crisaborole 2% ointment is a topical phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitor. It can be used for mild to moderate atopic dermatitis in patients 2 years of age or older. Crisaborole is applied to areas of eczema 2 times a day. It cannot be used on mucous membranes. Burning or stinging after application is the most common adverse effect.
Topical tacrolimus and pimecrolimus are T-cell inhibitors effective for AD. They can be used for mild to moderate AD or when corticosteroid adverse effects such as skin atrophy, striae formation, or adrenal suppression is a concern. Tacrolimus ointment or pimecrolimus cream is applied twice daily. Burning or stinging after application is usually transient and abates after a few days. Flushing is less common.
Repair of the stratum corneum and barrier function may help alleviate AD. Research has shown that skin affected by AD is particularly deficient in ceramides and that a deficiency in ceramides increases transepidermal water loss. Several ceramide-containing emollient products are considered helpful for AD control.
Phototherapy is helpful for extensive AD. Natural sun exposure ameliorates disease in many patients, including children. Alternatively, therapy with ultraviolet A (UVA) or B (UVB) may be used. Narrowband UVB therapy is proving more effective than traditional broadband UVB therapy and is also effective in children. Psoralen plus UVA (PUVA) therapy is reserved for extensive, refractory AD. Adverse effects include sun damage (eg, PUVA lentigines, nonmelanoma skin cancer). Because of these adverse effects, phototherapy, particularly PUVA, is avoided when possible in children or young adults.
Dupilumab is a fully human monoclonal IgG4 antibody that blocks the signaling of IL-4 and IL-13, both proinflammatory Th2 cytokines, in atopic dermatitis. It is given subcutaneously as a 600-mg loading dose, followed by 300 mg every 2 weeks; for patients weighing < 60 kg, a 400-mg loading dose is followed by 200 mg every other week. Dupilumab is available for the treatment of moderate to severe atopic dermatitis in patients 12 years and older and is recommended for patients whose disease is not adequately controlled with other prescription and over-the-counter drugs and topical preparations.
Systemic immune modulators effective in at least some patients include cyclosporine, interferon gamma, mycophenolate, methotrexate, and azathioprine. All downregulate or inhibit T-cell function and have anti-inflammatory properties. These agents are indicated for widespread, recalcitrant, or disabling AD that fails to abate with topical therapy and phototherapy.
Antistaphylococcal antibiotics, both topical (eg, mupirocin, fusidic acid [applied for ≤ 2 weeks]) and oral (eg, dicloxacillin, cephalexin, erythromycin [all 250 mg 4 times a day for 1 to 2 weeks]), are used to treat bacterial skin superinfections such as impetigo, folliculitis, or furunculosis. Nasal mupirocin can also be used to decrease carriage of S. aureus and the severity of AD.
Eczema herpeticum is treated with acyclovir. Infants receive 10 to 20 mg/kg IV every 8 hours; older children and adults with mild illness may receive 200 mg orally 5 times a day. Involvement of the eye is considered an ophthalmic emergency, and if eye involvement is suspected, an ophthalmology consult should be obtained.

Key Points
Atopic dermatitis is common, particularly in developed nations, affecting 15 to 30% of children and 2 to 10% of adults.
Common triggers include airborne allergens (eg, pollen, dust), sweat, harsh soaps, rough fabrics, and fragrances.
Common findings include pruritus and erythematous patches and plaques and lichenification in the antecubital and popliteal fossae and on the eyelids, neck, and wrists.
Superinfections (particularly S. aureus infections and eczema herpeticum) are common.
Atopic dermatitis often improves by adulthood.
First-line treatments include moisturizers, topical corticosteroids, and antihistamines as needed for pruritus.
For disease unresponsive to topical therapy, consider dupilumab, immunosuppressants, and phototherapy.

Frontman Matt Bellamy told BBC 6Music that he wanted to create a Rage Against The Machine-inspired group with Skinner, although he had not approached the solo artist with the proposal yet. "I think we would like to do something with Mike Skinner," he said. "We haven't asked him yet, but we would like to do England's answer to Rage Against The Machine. "Like London rap-rock, just like a little one-off. It might be a laugh!" Source : nme.com/bbc radio6 :stunned:
