Stauffer, Stairs almost ready to play
Young, Blanks not expected back anytime soon
He stretched out to 85 pitches in his last start. He worked an inning in relief Monday night and the idea is for him to work again as a reliever Thursday to show he can work on short rest out of the bullpen.
Stauffer had a 0.39 ERA when he went on the disabled list May 10 after an emergency appendectomy in San Francisco.
Odds and ends
•Pinch-hitter Stairs said he has completed all of the tasks the Padres set out for him to prove his right knee strain has healed to the point where he is ready to come off the disabled list. "I feel I'm ready," said Stairs, who has been sidelined since June 7.
•Closer Heath Bell showed up in the clubhouse Tuesday with an app on his iPhone duplicating the sound of those vuvuzela horns from soccer's World Cup. It was funny for about 10 minutes, before teammates asked him to lose the app.

Thoracic Surgery FAQs
What is a Thoracic Surgeon?
A thoracic surgeon is a medical doctor who treats diseases of the chest including coronary artery disease; cancers of the lung, esophagus, and chest wall; abnormalities of the great vessels and heart valves; birth defects of the chest and heart; tumors in the organs contained in the chest cavity; and transplantation of the heart and lungs. Cardiothoracic surgeons perform operations on the heart, lungs, esophagus, and other organs in the chest.
What kind of training is required to become a Thoracic Surgeon?
Thoracic surgeons are one of the most educated physicians. They graduate from medical school and most commonly go on to complete a five-year general surgery residency. After this they must successfully matriculate through an approved cardiothoracic surgery residency program for either two or three years. Some thoracic surgeons choose to do additional training in a sub-specialized area.
What is minimally invasive surgery?
These are advanced surgical techniques using high definition imaging technology and precision instruments to work through tiny incisions to perform procedures. For example, one of the most common treatments for lung cancer involves the surgical removal of the lobe of the lung, known as pulmonary lobectomy. Traditional thoracotomy and lobectomy require a large incision, often 10 inches. The procedure also commonly results in substantial blood loss and a lengthy and uncomfortable recovery.
What is the benefit of minimally invasive surgery to patients?
In comparison to traditional surgery, minimally invasive surgery generally results in less blood loss, fewer complications, shorter hospital stays and a faster return to normal daily activities. Patients may also experience less post-operative pain and scarring.
When should a patient consider seeing a Thoracic Surgeon?
Your Primary Care Physician, Cardiologist, Pulmonologist, or Gastroenterologist may send you to a thoracic surgeon if he/she feels that you could benefit from an operation to treat a condition involving the heart, lungs, esophagus, mediastinum, or the chest wall.

Chelsea's aim of breaking even as a business by 2010 looked more remote than ever today after the club announced it made a loss of £74 million in the financial year to the end of June 2007.
Although the accounts show the club reduced their losses from £80.2m in 2005/2006 - thanks mainly to reduced spending on new players - chief executive Peter Kenyon admitted the target of balancing the books in the next two years looked "ambitious".
The latest loss, while some way short of the record £140m announced by Chelsea in 2004/2005, takes owner Roman Abramovich's total investment in the club to an eye-watering £578m since he bought the club in a £140m deal in 2003.
But Chelsea reiterated the Russian billionaire's long term commitment to the club and added they were still working on ways to expand their 42,000 capacity Stamford Bridge home to help them compete with Manchester United and Arsenal.
"These figures demonstrate that Chelsea are growing in strength as a business and as a club," said Kenyon. "We have expanded globally as a club, we have reduced our salaries as a percentage of turnover, we have continued to be successful on the field, we have increased sponsorship revenue and we continue to invest in our academy and reduce reliance on transfers.
"With the company also being debt free and our ownership clearly demonstrating continuing commitment to the long term, I am very confident about the future on a football and business level."

Chairwoman of the newly formed Upper Clutha Conservation
Taskforce, Megan Williams, this week told the Otago Daily
Times the task force was the result of a public meeting
in May held as part of the region's Shaping our Future
It was attended by various conservation groups ''just to try
and get some vision and strategy around what people were
doing and encourage more collaboration'', Ms Williams said.
Data collected from the meeting was being developed into the
task force's terms of reference, and a ''draft vision'' was
being formed using existing material as a starting point.
''We're just trying to think long-term and lead the groups to
develop a shared vision,'' Ms Williams said.
Butterfields Wetlands next to the Hawea River, near Albert
Town, had three different conservation groups working on it,
''which haven't actually agreed on what they want the place
to look like in the future''.
One group was planting trees and another was planning to
build a track.
There were also five groups working in the Matukituki Valley
and ''they haven't really been collaborating''.
''So I believe since the meeting in May a group of them have
got together ... It's just encouraging a little bit more
collaboration there to get more done.''
Long term, everyone agreed on the need for ''pristine water
and pristine air'', Ms Williams said.
But the question was how to ensure those things were
Asked about the prospect of another 1400 woodburners being
installed in the proposed Northlake subdivision of Wanaka, Ms
Williams said the task force would ''try and stay out of the
political process at that level and really try to stay
big-picture on conservation issues''.
''All we are looking at doing is leading a discussion with
the Upper Clutha groups to develop a shared vision so that
everyone can work together.''
It was hoped to have a conservation strategy prepared before
the end of the year.
Already it seemed clear more water, soil and air monitoring
needed to be undertaken.
''Whether that's done by volunteers or whether we do that by
lobbying the local authorities - that's the type of action we
will be hoping for.''
Data was needed to establish ''base lines, so that we know
where we are at'', Ms Williams said.
The task force would not be taking over the roles of other
conservation groups but would be complementing what they did.
Ms Williams, originally from Dunedin, has a background in
tourism, and teaches sustainable tourism at the Queenstown
Resort College.
The members of the task force are: John Wellington, Robbie
Lawton, Anne Steven, Andrew Penniket, Calum MacLeod, Natalie
Astin, Alexa Forbes and representatives from the Lake Wanaka
Guardians and Department of Conservation.

System Description of the Mobile LIDAR of the CSIR, South Africa
Date Added: Dec 2009
Format: PDF
South Africa's first mobile LIDAR (LIght Detection And Ranging) system is being developed at the National Laser Centre (NLC) of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) in Pretoria (25?45'S; 28?17'E). The system is designed primarily for remote sensing of the atmosphere. At present, the system is being optimised for measuring vertical atmospheric backscatter profiles of aerosols and clouds. In this paper, the authors describe the complete LIDAR system, including laser transmission, telescope configuration, data acquisition, data archival and post-processing.

Doody's Review ServiceReviewer: William R. Hendee, PhD (Medical College of Wisconsin)
Description: This is the third edition of an introduction to the research, technology, and clinical applications of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that has become standard reading material for radiology residents. The second edition was published in 1999 and the first edition in 1995.
Purpose: The purpose is to provide readers with the knowledge of the tools needed to assess various MRI modalities and to understand and apply the contrast mechanisms inherent in any of the modalities. This information is an essential ingredient in the education of any radiologist. The book meets its objectives very well.
Audience: The primary audience for this book is radiology residents and the book has become standard for residents in training programs across the nation. However, it serves well as an introductory book for anyone wishing to learn about MRI. Certainly, the authors are recognized authors in the field.
Features: The book provides an introduction to the science and technology of magnetic resonance imaging, enabling in-depth assessment of contrast enhancement mechanisms. A final chapter on clinical applications is reinforced by clinical images throughout the book. The authors write well and have chosen their examples very well.
Assessment: This book is a very well written book and has wonderful illustrations of technical principles, many of which are clinical images. New editions every four years might seem to be excessively frequent, but the field of magnetic resonance imaging is changing quickly, both technically and clinically.

Doing the right thing is never free or easy. It can be a costly thing as House Republicans are discovering in Montpelier. Case in point: Democrats want to suspend traditional house budget rules to push through House Bill 275 of 2011.
H.275 proposes to provide a tax credit to Vermont employers who hire recently deployed, unemployed veterans. What started out as a noble-hearted bill has now become the usual partisan "sharpened stick" for jabbing across the aisle.
Last week, House Democrats requested that rules be suspended to bring H.275 to the floor for "immediate, decisive action". What's the big hurry for Democrats? Throughout all of 2009 and 2010 legislators could have done the same thing. Now all of sudden it's so urgent the House must suspend rules of review.
Well, the Democrats' plan will indeed circumvent the legislative process to expedit H.275's passage. But then pushing bills through without review is something Democrats universally seem skilled at accomplishing-at least when they choose to remain in their home state (witness Wisconsin's elected MIAs).
As it turned out, the Republican minority in Montpelier wasn't so quick to sign off on the bill risking negative press about being heartless to veterans. It's not that they are heartless when it comes to veterans-far from it. Vermont Republicans have alwsy been in the forefront of supporting active and ex military personnel. In the case of H.275, it's because they'd like to see how this generous tax credit will be funded. In short, Republicans want the bill to go through its normal legislative process.
According to GOP minority leader Rep. Don Turner (Chittenden-9), "I supported the bill in committee and it is likely that all members of the Republican caucus will support the legislation. However, without the proper vetting process and the lack of information on the bill-as it was being brought to the floor-I was concerned about the financial implications."

Has anyone else got the superb NBA 2K14 for the PS4 and having problems with the audio glitching out (cutting out completely or switching to a bizarre 'popping' noise) when using DTS or DD 5.1 surround sound via optical out? I've found that the only way to have working audio to switch to Linear PCM but then I lose the surround sound as my Sony amp detects it as stereo only audio. I can temporarily fix it by going to Settings while the game is running and switching to another audio format and back but the bug returns. Only using LPCM fixes it at the moment. I cannot believe that this issue has not been patched yet.
This is the only PS4 game that has this issue and I've since found a forum with others reporting the same issue so it isn't a hardware fault.

Re: Help pinpointing a leak
Sorry to hear about your leak. There are many potential sources, you will have to determine the source by the process of elimination. It appears you have correctly eliminated the propeller shaft fitting and probably anything aft of the bilge as the source, although water can make its way forward or aft or laterally throughout the boat. In addition, sometimes, water will accumulate in one area of the boat, then be released and redirected by the movement of the boat through the action of sailing or motoring and the stringers and ribs in the boat.
If you were in salt water, we could advise you to taste the water to determine if it is fresh or sea water, but your boat's location in the Great Lakes makes that test unfeasible.
Check the water tank and all thru-hulls, including the head intake thru-hull, the speedo and depth sounder thru-hull, the sink drain thru-hull, the icebox drain thru-hull, the engine cooling water intake, and any thru-hulls that have been abandoned. Test and examine all seacocks for leakage. You also need to check all hoses and fittings, the engine exhaust elbow and the water pump. In fact, it is a good idea to grab the hoses and manipulate them to determine if the material is still solid. Sometimes, a hose will dry rot or develop a slow leak along the spiral seam, although it appears to be fine. With a new-to-you boat, it is certainly advisable, inexpensive and relatively easy to replace all hoses.
Next, check the potential hull structural elements entry points: the keel bolts, the rudder post, a bow thruster, if the boat has one.
In the meantime, I second Jimgo's good advice about setting up solar power and an automatic bilge pump. You need to work quickly or haul the boat. I know from a previous thread, you were plan to install 2 automatic pumps.
You have gotten some good advice. In lieu of adding food coloring, you could add some red RV/Marine antifreeze to your water tank and pump some through the head.

Q&A: Joel Anthony loves his BlackBerry
Updated: December 15, 2010, 5:34 PM ETBy Mario Sarmento | Special to Page 2
Joel Anthony, an undrafted center out of UNLV who had been in Miami for three seasons, was re-signed this offseason to provide a little grit to complement the flash of Dwyane Wade, LeBron James and Chris Bosh.
The 6-foot-9, 254-pound center grew up in Montreal before playing college basketball in Las Vegas.

A team of experts from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has arrived in Tehran for talks that promise to start a process, which could help ease tensions between Iran and the West.
The IAEA hopes to achieve some "real results," during the two-day talks, the team's leader Herman Nackaerts, the Deputy Director of the global body, said ahead of his departure to Tehran. "We hope to have a couple of good and constructive days in Tehran."
Monday's talks have begun at a time when both sides may be willing to take a breather during the course of their on-going covert war and concerted drive for one-upmanship.
On Sunday, Iran announced that it was suspending oil exports to Britain and France — two countries which have been at the forefront of targeting Syrian President, Bashar Al Assad, Iran's key ally in the Levant.
The Iranian decision is being mainly measured for its psychological value, rather than its commercial bite. While it does not significantly hurt the two countries — with Britain importing only 1 per cent of its energy requirements from Iran, and France 3 per cent — it does add credence to Iran's threat that it could, in a calibrated manner, cut-off oil supplies to an unprepared European Union, if it does not quickly reverse its decision of boycotting Iranian oil from July this year. Despite facing a steep economic downturn, the EU had announced on January 23 that in a bid to pressurise Iran over its nuclear programme, it would look for alternative suppliers, and stop buying Iranian oil from July.
On Wednesday, Iran introduced domestically built nuclear fuel plates inside the Tehran Research Reactor (TRR), marking a technological advancement that has been scaled only by a handful of countries. Iran had run out of the 20 per cent enriched fuel that had been imported for this reactor, used for making isotopes that are required for the treatment of cancer.
But amid the tough talk, which has included the threat of waging war against Iran, tangible steps have been taken, that promise to ease the seemingly spiralling tensions between the two adversaries. Nuclear talks between Iran and the six global powers — United States, Russia,
China, France, Britain and Germany — could well resume in the not-too-distant future.
On Wednesday, Saeed Jalili, Iran's top negotiator on the nuclear issue had written to the EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashtonexpressing an urgency to resume talks, stalled since January 2011. Mr. Jalili proposed to "resume our talks in order to take fundamental steps for sustainable cooperation in the earliest possibility in a mutually agreed venue and time". He said that Iran's "new initiatives in this round of talks could open a positive perspective for our negotiation".
Departing from the phase of sabre rattling, the Obama administration also appeared to have imparted a tone of sobriety in making its assessment of Iran's nuclear capabilities. James Clapper, the U.S. director of national intelligence, said on Thursday, at a hearing of the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee that, despite acquiring some skills, Iran has remained so far, undecided about pursuing atomic weapons. In a separate testimony, Lieutenant General Ronald Burgess, director of the U.S. Defence Intelligence Agency, observed that Iran has the technical, scientific and industrial capability to "eventually" produce atomic weapons.
While the Iranians have not spelled out in any detail their roadmap for defusing nuclear tensions, some analysts, drawing on the writings of some Iranian scholars, are of the view that Tehran appeared inclined to consider Russia's "step-by-step" proposal. According to the Russian plan, sanctions against Iran would be dismantled incrementally, as it addresses an ascending list of demands of the IAEA. In last August, Iran had agreed to work within the framework of the Russian proposal. "The Islamic Republic of Iran has positively received Russia's idea for a step-by-step solution and is ready to prepare suggestions for cooperation in the nuclear sphere," read the official statement by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, after he had met Secretary of the Russian Security Council, Nikolai Patrushev.

The PC version of the original Lost Planet brought gamers DirectX 10 support, and to follow in its footsteps, Lost Planet 2 will support DirectX 11. Though the game's release date hasn't been announced, Capcom has released a benchmark that allows us to test out both modes, so that's just what we did.
In early 2007, Capcom released Lost Planet: Extreme Condition for the Xbox 360, and about six months later, it became available for the PC. For PC gamers, the "Extreme" delay wasn't exactly appreciated, so to help keep interest high in the title, Capcom unveiled DirectX 10 support for the game.
At the time, many PC gamers were sporting either AMD Radeon HD 2000 or NVIDIA GeForce 8000 series of graphics cards, both of which supported DirectX 10. Given that the DX10 software selection was quite slim, many gamers opted to purchase the game when it first came out, and in the case of sites like ours, it became a popular benchmarking tool also.
The problem, though, was that the game was hit or miss for gamers in terms of likability. Personally, the game did little to grab my attention, and I found myself rather bored a mere hour or two into the game. To make things worse, the game was plagued with performance issues when running under DX10 mode – even the top-end cards were sluggish.
Despite all that, the game sold very well, and paved the way for Lost Planet 2. In almost a rinse and repeat scenario, both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 saw the game's release this past May, with the PC release still tentative. To help make up for the familiar delay this time around, Capcom has introduced DirectX 11 support into the game.
Though the game's official PC release date is unknown, Capcom has gone ahead and released a Lost Planet 2 benchmark that allows you to test both DX9 and DX11 modes. Unfortunately, unlike the Lost Planet: Extreme Condition demo release, which was both a benchmark and playable demo, the one for Lost Planet 2 is strictly for benchmarking. It could be assumed that we'd see a playable demo closer to launch.
As Lost Planet 2 is the latest game to see DirectX 11 support, we thought we'd take the benchmark for a spin and see just how worthy this support really is. Because the benchmark is non-playable, we can't offer opinions as to how good the gameplay is, so we'll leave that for our review of the game at its launch.
In this article, we're going to take a quick look both at initial performance data for both the GeForce GTX 480 and Radeon HD 5870 cards, and also provide screenshots and a video that shows the benchmark running in DX9 and DX11 modes. The reason we opted to only benchmark two cards is simply because the data we have today won't be all too useful. The game has no release date, so by the time it actually lands, there will no doubt be optimizations added in, from either Capcom or the GPU vendors.
This benchmark consists of "Benchmark A" and "Benchmark B", and according to NVIDIA, it's the Benchmark B that should be focused on, as it shows the DirectX 11 elements off a lot better. Benchmark A is better for 3D Vision testing, but that's not something we delved into.
From a DirectX 11 technical standpoint, Lost Planet 2 features heavy use of tessellation and displacement maps, and in many regards, a lot of the comparisons you'll see are likely to remind you of Unigine's Heaven benchmark, where the differences between turning tessellation on and off are rather stark.
In addition, DirectCompute soft body simulation is used, primarily for the level's bosses, which helps make for much more realistic reaction of the monster's skin and other elements. Similar to this, water is also affected with DirectCompute's wave simulation. Physics elements come into play here, where anything can affect the water in a natural manner, from bullets hitting the surface to a character walking through a stream to get to the other side.
It all sounds cool on paper, but just how much better does DirectX 11 help Lost Planet 2 look? Below, we have a handful of comparison shots that simply compare DirectX 9 to DirectX 11 "High" modes. We tried to take the screenshots at the exact same time for each mode, but we weren't perfect, so please bear that in mind. There will be subtle differences that have little to do with the DirectX version.
DirectX 9
DirectX 11
Thanks in part to tessellation, the boss looks much more defined in DirectX 11 mode, especially with regards to his legs and multitude of horns. This is one of those things, though, that I am not sure many people would even notice unless there were two screenshots side-by-side, like here.

Welcome, Guest
Women in Medicine Blogs & Diaries
TOPIC: married momof3 medschool2004
married momof3 medschool2004 11 years 1 month ago #68993
I didn't think my story was all that interesting until I started interviewing for med school. I looked around at all the other interviewees and realized I was a zebra among horses. :laughing: But I also know that there are many women like me who decide to tackle a medical career somewhat later in life. So we may have put the cart before the horse, so to speak, we still have what it takes to get into med school! I thought it might be useful for those of you in a similar situation to read what I've done and what happens when I start med school late this summer.
First, a brief rundown to get me started.
I just turned 34 and I've been married nearly 13 years to a fantastic and supportive man. We have 3 kids. A 9 yr old daughter and 7 yr old fraternal twin boys.
I began my path to medical school when my daughter was a year old. I was inspired to pursue a career I thought was beyond my reach after my daughter had open heart surgery at 5 weeks of age. She had a very serious congenital heart defect that was not caught until she was critically ill. Fortunately, she had her surgery, recovered and is now an athletic and energetic 4th grader.
I was moved by the care that was provided to her, to us, and to the hundreds of families in the children's hospital where she had her surgery. I had always had some interest in medicine, but a very traditional upbringing and some rotten school counselors made me think that women who want kids can't be doctors. (that, and I didn't have enough confidence in my academic abilities!)
So after my child turned a year old, I went back to school to start the prereqs.
okay, that's only scratching the surface! :laughing: I need to think about the best way to write all this without boring everyone to death. More soon!

Re: married momof3 medschool2004 11 years 1 month ago #68994
y'all feel free to PM me with the encouraging notes. I was pleasantly surprised by the feedback!
Now where was I?
Okay, so at 25, with my 1 yr old daughter, I started asking questions about med school. My husband had a friend who was just completing his MD/PhD at Baylor. We had dinner with him and his wife one night and I expressed how I wished I had majored in Bio and gone to med school. He pointed out that it wasn't necessary and that many people were going to medical school these days via less traditional routes. *revelation* I had no idea!
2 months later I was registering for Bio I, Chem I, and Phy I ! I was sure I wasn't smart enough, but I just had to know if I could do it. Well, I did it. a 4.0 that semester. completely shocked myself.
But then I started thinking about all the implications and worrying about my child growing up as an only child. And money got tight. So, the next semester I was only part time and... I got pregnant. Much to my surprise, twins!!!
That really put a wrench in things. I had to drop my Chem II course because I was just physically exhausted and kept getting sick during my 8am class. But I had good news that semester too. My advisor had encouraged me to apply for a summer research position and I got it!
I worked with a Cardiologist that summer while I was in my 2nd trimester. It worked out pretty well. I was primarily doing journal research and gathering info from patient files. I loved the time I got to spend in clinic with the doctor.
Shortly afer my research ended I was put on bed rest and then had my boys at 35 weeks. Not too bad for a mom carrying twins and trying to handle a just-turned 2 yr old!
after the boys were born, I was able to take Bio II at a community college at night. (they were 4 months by then) But my steam and money were running low. I spent a lot of time worrying about how I would raise 3 kids and be a good mom while going to med school. Mommy guilt really interfered with my ability to move forward.
When the boys turned 2, I was ready to hit the trail again. I only needed Organic Chem and a second yr of Bio at that point.
more soon!

Re: married momof3 medschool2004 11 years 1 month ago #68995
phew! It's hard work to get all the info in. :laughing:
Let's see, I have now gotten up to the Fall 1998. My daughter was 4 and the boys turning 2. I taught preschool at the kids' school so that I could afford for them to go. I worked MWF and then had a friend watch the kids while I took Organic I that semester.
That semester was a disaster. I was working hard but overwhelmed by the demands of the family and my class and my husband worked all the time. His job was terrible and he was miserable.
He announced he was quitting (for good ethical reasons) in October. I should have dropped the class at that point, but I didn't. We were living in Houston at the time and he came home in early Nov. to announce he'd been offered a job in New Hampshire. I had to look at a map to see which state it was!!!!
My house was on the market by Thanksgiving. I escaped Organic I with a C. (yup, a C) before that, all my prereq's were A's and I felt like a failure. I also felt that the only way to keep the family together and take care of everyone was to give up on medicine. So I did. Even though I only needed to take Org II in the Spring and the MCAT in order to apply, I quit.
We moved right after New Year's and it only took about 2 months for me to become really depressed. I tried to think of another career that would satisfy my interests and wound up applying for a Master's in Communication Disorders. (speech pathology) I got into the program. Began the Master's in Fall 2000. a year after we had moved, the company decided to relo their offices to Houston. Yes, we had to move back!
I had to give up the speech program and I was furious, even though I had already realized speech wasn't going to fulfill my needs. I decided to wait a year before I made anymore career decisions.
Various other events continued to disrupt our lives. I wound up working as a speech therapist for a while. That experience cemented my desire to pursue medicine.
In Fall of 2002 I bit the bullet and returned to take Biochem and Genetics. got A's. screwed up my courage in 2003 and tackled Org II without repeating I and after 4 years away from the subject. I hired a tutor and worked with him twice a week. I also took the Kaplan course for the MCAT. Got a 'B' in Org II, of which I am very proud! :laughing: Sucess with the MCAT as well.
Next time I'll write about the application experience. Feedback is appreciated!

Re: married momof3 medschool2004 11 years 1 month ago #68996
This one may be brief since the kids are already home from school. I'm in this weird transition year. I'm home fulltime and my kids are all in school fulltime! I didn't work this year because of the application cycle (needed to be free to interview) and because my husband travels to CA every week for his work. I'm the only parent around, so sick kids and all the other details of family life are soley on my shoulders during the week. But it's kinda feast or famine. Either I'm incredibly busy with the kids' lives and volunteering, or I'm dead bored!
So, to let you know what my stats looked like. (I suppose there's no point in being modest, since I know I was dying for specific info when I was applying last year.) I had an overall ugrad GPA of 3.49 (Anthropology 1991) a prereq sci GPA of 3.72 (due to Org, all others were A's)and a 33 MCAT (10P 14V 9B).
Overall, it wasn't bad, but I was very nervous about the fact that I hadn't had a fulltime job in nearly 9 years and hadn't been in school fulltime since the brief grad program in 2000.
Oh, and for those of you who haven't applied yet, one of the BIGGEST headaches of the application process for me was the letters of recommendation. I had volunteered at a hosp. once a week for about 9 months by application time, so my Vol Director wrote one of them. I shadowed a pediatrician over a 3 month period and he kindly provided a letter as well. the tricky part was getting letters from professors. I only had a couple of recent classes, Biochem, Genetics, & Org II. Well, with the B in Org, I didn't feel comfortable asking for a letter. My genetic prof enthusiastically wrote me a letter, but the premed committee wouldn't count it towards the academic letter requirement because she wasn't actually on the faculty, but a visiting lecturer.
Then there was the Biochem prof. I did very well in his course. He know me, he saw me there everyday. I asked him for a letter and he said yes. I waited, I emailed reminders per his request, and I even dropped by a couple of times. Did he ever write the letter? NO! Did he ever say he wouldn't , of course not. jerk. He was on the premed eval committee, too!(didn't know that 'til later)
My other letters came from profs who hadn't seen me in 4-6 years but who were willing to write letters based on my resume and lengthy conversations. One prof even wrote the letter in less than a week's time when I realized the Biochem prof wasn't coming through. Bless that prof's soul. Anyway, at that point it payed off that I had attended classes regularly and asked questions because the prof's remembered me!
I applied to the TX med schools, which have their own application, TMDSAS and to AMCAS, the central application service for most other allopathic med schools. I think the applications alone added up to $300 or so. (10 schools overall) Most AMCAS schools have additional fees for the secondary apps.
Oh yeah, the personal statement. My mom is a published writer, so after I wrote the essay, she helped me refine and edit. She also helped edit my larger essays for secondary applications. If you have access to professinal editors/writers, I strongly recommend using them! Havind a well-crafted essay that is pleasant to read is sooooo important. It doesn't have to be fancy, just make sure that it paints a picture of you and is readable.
okay, enough for today. Maybe I can write about the interviews this weekend.
Thanks for reading and forgive the typos and errors!

Re: married momof3 medschool2004 11 years 1 month ago #68997
This isn't the interview experience I promised, but thoughts on med school approaching...
I was reading the thread in medical students about being a mom in med school. I understand every woman's fears about not being "enough" for her family if she pursues an intense career. That fear was a big part of what kept me from finishing my prereq's 5 years ago. OTOH, I have never been satisfied as a SAHM. I love my kids, I love my home, I love my time with everyone. But, I don't love being defined as "only" a mom and homemaker. I crave challenges and I crave the ability to touch lives, to make things better or easier. And I love medicine. I just do.
So given all that, I have to say to myself "You can do this and do it well. You won't be the top student in your class and you won't be the mom with the most volunteer hours with the PTO. But neither of those things will make you happy anyway. What makes you happy is having a happy healthy family while pursuing your own dreams and aspirations." (I often tell this to myself while working out so there's plenty of time to get all those words in! :laughing: )
I haven't felt this complete as a person since I went to college. Somewhere along the way I thought being a wife and mother meant sacrificing my own needs. But no longer. And I am so much the happier and fulfilled for finally realizing i was wrong. And of course, getting into my most desired med school helps a lot too!

Re: married momof3 medschool2004 11 years 1 month ago #68998
I'm having trouble getting motivated to write about interviews. odd. I'll just start and see how far I get.
Thanks to my very early applications, and TX earlier interview process, I got my first interview phone call around the 4th of July! It was from TCOM, the osteopathic med school in TX. I think I sounded like a complete idiot when I heard the news from the nice woman in the admissions office! But I was grinning from ear to ear! I had really thought I might sit and wait a very long time because of my nontrad status, both in age and education.
But no sooner did I get that call then I got an email from UT Houston that very same day. Needless to say I was on cloud nine. :yes:

what camera can we use for taking photos for uploading here? can we use simple camera like sony DSC -W580?
@GraphicsPencil What main is not the Camera .. Yes you have to know your limitation but the main thing is the Man behind the Photos .. and the Quality Of photos..
Yes, you can. But main thinks the photo's subject or quality, not camera matter. Must need to meet of your photos the following issues: – Blur – Poor focus – Excessive or distracting motion blur – Softness So your photos are OK for uploading here, if all issues done. Thanks
But it matters the resolution right ? Im also having a little canon powershot camera.. and dreaming of taking some photoes.. as those 6000D DSLR cameras a re highly expensive….
From my own experience, go for the best you can buy. I started out buying a Canon Powershot also. $500 (cuz I was too cheap to go higher). Found that it could not get decent enough pictures to get many accepted. Upgraded to a Canon Rebel XT for $700. Ho-hum acceptance. Went to Canon 5D for $1700. Suddenly my pics went from less than 60% acceptance to roughly 85%, using same techniques and exposure, etc. But then the 5D Mark II went on super sale for $1800 and I jumped. My acceptance is now around 95% and the quality shames whatever my 5D put out (picture quality not composition quality, mind you). In all, I spent $3000 more than I should have if I had just bought the 5D Mark II in the first place. There is value in the full frame camera with acceptance by stock sites. I am not saying smaller, cheaper cameras do not work, but it will be more difficult.

Emerging technologies alter the way agencies, industry do business
The federal market is in flux. New companies are popping up, and established contractors, big and small, are altering the way they do business to take advantage of emerging technologies and the way that technology is delivered. As part of Federal News Radio's special report, A New Era in Technology, we examine the sea change that will force federal agencies and contractors to think differently as they learn how to master these new technologies together.

Let's Reclaim Our Voice!
Just about a year from now, we will cast votes for the President, a U.S. Senator, numerous county and city offices, and a new Minnesota legislature. I am announcing my plans to, once again, run for a seat in the Minnesota Senate. This election is not about getting my "old seat back." This election is about reclaiming a voice for Senate District 25 and all Minnesotans. The current party in power in the Minnesota legislature fails to listen. This past summer's government shutdown proved they are more concerned about their party platform than the constituents who elected them. I worry about the tone of today's politics and our basic priorities.
We talk about recession…yet ignore the needy
We talk about test scores…while ignoring educational funding.
We talk about wanting quality health care, yet over 400,000 Minnesotans go without.
We talk about local control, yet we starve our cities and counties.
We talk about Republicans and Democrats yet we forget about Minnesotans
I believe the basics include a job, a quality education, affordable college, a clean and healthy environment, equality for all, and a right to grow old with dignity.
We are facing a critical time in Minnesota. We can no longer allow extreme political agendas to divide us — the success of our state and our communities depends on our ability to find common ground on many critical issues.
We can do this together. When we stop working together… government ceases to work. Again, let's make Minnesota proud!
Siddhartha Mukherjee's "The Emperor of All Maladies"
I recently finished reading Siddhartha Mukherjee's The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer. I recommend it highly to those who want to know more about cancer.
It's a long and challenging read, but it's worth it. The main thing I learned: cancer is a many-headed hydra. Each type of cancer is a different disease that requires a different type of treatment.
What we deserve
The rich, the well-connected, the privileged, and the powerful have given themselves the society that they deserve. The rest of us deserve better.
Hopes and Dreams
On November 22nd, all of the members of Norcoh met for their second programming meeting. These cards with simple but effective drawings helped express their hopes, dreams, and goals for the neighborhood.
The cohousing design discussion on November 5, 2009, was well-attended and lively conversation sprouted afterward. Attendees included ages from very young to retirement-age, which is a perfect match for our goals for our community.
In February, we will be offering a Community Ed course in four sessions for those who would like more information. Also, stay tuned to this blog for more opportunities to engage!

Kimbo doesn't deserve a 'Slice' of the MMA pie
Street fighting legend Kimbo Slice is a mixed martial arts mess. For starters, the YouTube sensation is a terrible grappler with technically flawed hands.
His punches have about as much technique behind them as Charles Barkley's golf swing. His ground game isn't much better. Watching Kimbo jockey for ground position is like watching an elephant try to pull its feet out of quick sand.
Bluntly put, Kimbo Slice is a marginal fighter with limited ability.
With that said, why in the world would an organization like EliteXC put all its hopes on the shoulders of such an incomplete, unimpressive fighter? Why, oh why, would a company with a bleak financial outlook bank on such an underwhelming commodity?
It's a question many inside the MMA community are trying to answer. As Kimbo prepares to fight UFC Hall-of-Famer Ken Shamrock in the featured bout of EliteXC's Oct. 4 card on CBS, many are wondering if the fledgling organization's commitment to the Miami native will ultimately lead to its demise.
It's no big secret that EliteXC is struggling to make ends meet. The company recently had a mild management shakeup and reportedly is on the verge of collapse. Many analysts consider EliteXC's relationship with CBS as its saving grace. Still, one must wonder if fans will continue to flock to watch Kimbo battle has-beens and nobodies.
For example, consider the validity of Kimbo's three-fight career for EliteXC.
It started last November right here in Corpus Christi. In his debut, Kimbo blew away an unheralded Bo Cantrell in a fight that some believe to be fixed. It is hard to fault those that questioned the bout's authenticity. After all, replays showed that Cantrell was barely grazed by the Kimbo punch that sent him tapping to the canvas. In essence, Kimbo won by scaring Cantrell into submission.
Kimbo, real name Kevin Ferguson, didn't look much better in his second bout earlier this year. Facing an old, out-of-shape, washed up Tank Abbott in February, Kimbo scored a knockout victory. But come on. He knocked out 43-year-old who has gone 2-8 since 1998.
The progression of Kimbo wasn't evident in his most recent bout against former Pride fighter James Thompson in May either. Kimbo wallowed for three boring rounds, often looking completely clueless when the fight went to the mat. Although he eventually scored a stoppage victory that evening, Kimbo's weaknesses were exposed worse than Thompson's cauliflower ear.
All of this leads to Kimbo's showdown with Shamrock (26-13-2) early next month. Once deemed "The World's Most Dangerous Man," Shamrock only has looked like a danger to himself in recent years. Since 2004, the 44-year-old has recorded just one victory, a TKO win over a fading Kimo Leopoldo at UFC 44. Following the win over Kimo, Shamrock suffered five straight knockout losses. Not exactly an impressive or safe way to end what was once a legendary career.
Some how, some way, a bout between Shamrock and Kimbo was considered appealing. For whatever reason, EliteXC believes that by spoon-feeding its Bas Rutten-trained star another fading veteran, it will continue to grow the Kimbo Slice allure.
EliteXC is sadly mistaken. Kimbo Slice is a mess. Even a relationship with CBS can't clean him up.
n Great UFC card from Nebraska on Wednesday. Nate Diaz, a former Ultimate Fighter reality show winner, looked sharp in his victory over a sturdy Josh Neer. Clay Guida, who like Diaz is a contender at 155 pounds, looked equally impressive against Mac Danzig. It is clear judging from the mid-week card that the lightweight division is as stacked as they come.
n We hear that Houston Alexander's first-round submission loss to Eric Schafer could spell the end of his UFC career. After defeating Keith Jardine and Alessio Sakara in dramatic fashion in his first two bouts, the light heavyweight was thumped by Thiago Silva and James Irvin. Last night's loss, his third straight, will not help Alexander in terms of job security. In the land of Dana White, you must win to remain on the roster.

James Cameron's Malibu land may get conservation tag
'Avatar' director owns several hundred acres of pristine wilderness that conservation groups are eager to preserve.
Fri, May 30, 2014 at 11:54 AM
Land baron and occassional movie director James Cameron is at the center of an effort by several groups in California to secure 703 acres of largely undeveloped land near Pepperdine University. The idea is to preserve the large tracts of wilderness, much of it owned by the "Avatar" director and vital to several species, as a public conservation corridor. The $12M price tag is being funded with $4.5M by the Wildlife Conservation Board, $5.265M from the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, and an expected $1.5M from the state Coastal Conservancy.
Cameron began buying up the land sometime after 1997 - amassing nearly 730 acres in three years. While his intitial intention was to create a family retreat affectionaly called "Tranquility Base," he later abandoned those plans and moved to sell the lot for $25M in 2007. In a decision that would appear uncharacteristic today given the director's staunch environmental views, Cameron even promoted the land as having potential for real estate development.
"Now that he's in production on the sci-fi thriller 'Avatar,' however, Cameron wants to focus on filmmaking instead of real estate development," the LA Times reported in 2007. "The filmmaker, 52, sees his land as an opportunity for a buyer who is passionate about developing a family retreat or a community of half a dozen estates."
To the relief of conservationists, that land sale never happened. The fact, however, that it still carries the development tag was enough for them to move presently to protect it.
"Because it's privately owned, there are some entitlements on that property that, if they had been developed by real estate developers, would've disrupted all the environmental resources and values that that land is being purchased for," County Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky told KPCC Radio. "This preserves a piece of very important, sensitive wildlife habitat."
Cameron and his family still own a 100-acre ranch in Santa Barbara, as well as thousands of acres surrounding their farm in New Zealand, and nearly 100 acres in his native Canada.

How to de-escalate the Ukrainian crisis:
1) EU should loudly support (main TV news) and push a new Ukrainian law which recognises Russian, Romanian and Bulgarian as regional languages. Those people are just as much Ukrainian as the ones from Kiev.
2) EU should also push for unity between Western and Eastern Ukraine by encouraging the Federalisation of the country. For the moment, they are polarising the situation by association Eastern Ukrainians to Pro-Russian vs Western Ukrainians as Pro-EU.
3) EU should take a balanced approach when talking about Putin rather than letting through the idea that he is just a macho dictator and that Russians are poor stupid people who don't understand all his manipulations.
All this is just pure and simple logic. I can understand some Ukrainians hating Russians for the moment, but I can't see why the EU isn't doing anything to stop this sentiment...

I hope that this comment help People understand that while all conflict situations are serious, there are some conflicts that are more serious than others.
I am not saying that Most Americans who comment on Ukraine are aware that they are being Deceived, but they need listen to Unbiased News Sources.
There is a saying that for some things that, People should be careful for what they wish for, because they just might get it.
The People of the World, which includes the People of America, do not want WW 3, and that means that they do not want their Politicians and the Mainstream Journalists to risk enabling that.
While some Gullible Americans will believe whatever their Mainstream Media says, we need to know that in this day of the Internet and of private researchers and proper Investigative Journalists, that you Cannot fool all of the People All of the time, and one good Accurate News Website is the Activist Post Website at http://www.activistpost.com/ , and another is the Global Research Website at http://www.globalresearch.ca/ .
While Americans may remain calm over some situations, there just Could be enough Americans that will do a Preemptive Strike on American Federal Politicians and some Mainstream American Journalists to Prevent WW 3.
I am not encouraging any Human to do a Preemptive Strike on American Federal Politicians and some Mainstream American Journalists.
We know that it is impossible in a Democracy to have 100 % agreement on anything, and so I just say that there just Could be enough Americans that will do a Preemptive Strike on American Federal Politicians and some Mainstream American Journalists to Prevent WW 3.
It is Never a time for Partisanship, and it is Never a time for some Perverted Sense of Patriotism, when it comes to WW 3.
If we look at Euro-American History after the collapse of the Soviet Union, then we will see that America led NATO has been surrounding Russia, and the Intention is to try to break Russia up or risk WW 3.
If Russia looks like it is going to be broken up, then there might not be any way to account for half of Russia's nuclear weapons, which might be given to Euro-America's enemies, and they can fit in a suitcase.
We know that drugs are easily smuggled in suitcases, and who knows if the Soviet Union left nuclear weapons in Eastern European Cities that were in the Soviet Union, in case they are ever needed as a last resort in Defense of Russia if NATO causes WW 3.
If we look at what has happened in Ukraine, then it was a Deliberate Scheme by Euro-America to cause a Coup, using Ethnic Ukrainian Neo Nazis as the European Version of Al Qaeda, which is America's Ally in the Middle East and in places like Libya.
America may suffer Economically, and in Terms of Trade, because the World is seeing the Insanity of the Anglo-American Politicians, and they do not like the Instability and Uncertainty that the Evil Schemes of Anglo-America are causing in Europe.
America has broken every Democratic Principle, and Violated International Law, and told Numerous Lies regarding Russia and Ukraine, and if America keeps out of this, then the Russia, Ukraine, and the European Union may be able to come up with an acceptable compromise.

What size should cold air return grille be?
I am adding a cold air return in my house in the floor. The ducting will be 8 inch round leading back to the main trunk. How large does the grille need to be in the floor to accomodate this duct and not choke anything down?
Also, is it alright to use a grille that is louvered for the return? Or should I stick with the egg-crate type? Thanks for the assistance!
They need to have the same area (area of 8 inch circle and area of the rectangle grille) so about 200 square inches.

Re: Palmyra Atoll
Hi there. Saw your post and decided to sign up so I could reply to it. I sailed to palmyra atoll about 15 years ago. I understand that it has changed hands but you can still go there. If you can go, GO! Bring all your own supplies because even if they have a bit of goods to sell, there isin't much. The place is pure paradise. 3-4 days sail South of Hawaii. Couple it with visits to Hawaii where you would leave from, Wotje in the Marshall Islands(4-5 days S-W sail from Hawaii), and Tarawa, Kiribati (4-5 days sail South from there).
Let the nature conservancy know when you'll be there. One there, the "caretaker" will have you sign a waiver to release them of legal responsibility, and enjoy. 3 lagoons. Rich in sea life so you can basically live off fishing. Tricky to get in to the with the boat. When I went, the caretaker actually sailed out in a little dinghy and directed us in. Gave him some gifts and we were best friends. Swimming, snorkeling, diving off the pier. Lots of sea life but everyone is so well fed that you can basically swim with the sharks.
