MRI studies have demonstrated differential rates of atrophy in the entorhinal cortex and hippocampus during the prodromal phase of Alzheimer disease (AD). The current study was designed to determine whether a broader set of temporoparietal regions show differential rates of atrophy during the evolution of AD.
Sixteen regions of interest (ROIs) were analyzed on MRI scans obtained at baseline and follow-up in 66 subjects comprising three groups: controls = individuals who were cognitively normal at both baseline and follow-up; nonconverters = subjects with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) at both baseline and follow-up; converters had MCI at baseline but had progressed to AD at follow-up.
Annualized percent change was analyzed with multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA), covaried for age. The MANOVA demonstrated an effect of group (p = 0.004). Post hoc comparisons demonstrated greater rates of atrophy for converters vs nonconverters for six ROIs: hippocampus, entorhinal cortex, temporal pole, middle temporal gyrus, fusiform gyrus, and inferior temporal gyrus. Converters showed differentially greater rates of atrophy than controls in five of the same ROIs (and inferior parietal lobule). Rates of change in clinical status were correlated with the atrophy rates in these regions. Comparisons between controls and nonconverters demonstrated no differences.
These results demonstrate that temporoparietal regions show differential rates of atrophy on MRI during prodromal Alzheimer disease (AD). MRI data correlate with measures of clinical severity and cognitive decline, suggesting the potential of these regions of interest as antemortem markers of prodromal AD.
Longitudinal MRI studies have focused on volumetric changes primarily in the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex. Postmortem studies indicate that additional regions beyond hippocampus and entorhinal cortex are involved in the early phases of Alzheimer disease (AD).1–5 The few longitudinal studies examining temporoparietal changes in subjects with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) who progressed to AD found atrophy in inferior and middle temporal gyrus, posterior cingulate, and precuneus,6 and in medial temporal lobe and posterior cortical regions.7 Two studies have also demonstrated differential rates of atrophy between individuals without dementia with a dominant genetic mutation in comparison to controls in posterior cingulate, medial temporal lobe, neocortical temporoparietal regions,8 and precuneus.9
In this study, we used analysis tools to conduct an assessment of temporoparietal gray matter regions in order to determine which regions demonstrate greater rates of atrophy among individuals destined to develop AD.
Measures of clinical severity and neuropsychological performance were available on the subjects, allowing us to examine the relationship between the atrophy rates and the rate of change in the clinical status. The clinical relevance of atrophy in the MRI measures was also examined by performing power calculations to determine the sample size needed for a clinical trial that used the three regions of interest (ROIs) with the largest effect size.
A total of 66 individuals were examined. The subjects were chosen from the larger population of 339 subject as being the only ones who met the clinical criteria for this study and had two MRI scans that were acquired on a 1.5T GE scanner, obtained with an SPGR sequence. Subjects were originally recruited through the print media. The details of the screening procedures have been described elsewhere.10 All subjects provided informed consent prior to the initiation of the study, in accordance with the requirements of the Human Research Committee of Massachusetts General Hospital (Boston, MA).
The subjects were selected to fit into three groups based upon their clinical status at baseline and follow-up: (A) control (n = 19), cognitively normal at both baseline and follow-up; (B) nonconverter (n = 22), MCI at both baseline and follow-up; (C) converter (n = 25), MCI at baseline (2 were cognitively normal at baseline), but progressed to a diagnosis of probable AD on follow-up (table 1). Nonconverters and converters showed no difference (p > 0.05) in their baseline CDR-SB scores. A comparison of baseline age showed a difference between the groups (p < 0.05). No other demographic or genetic variables differed between the groups. Data from baseline scans for 18 of the subjects have been included in prior publications related to manual ROIs.11,12
The degree of clinical severity was evaluated by an annual semi-structured interview that generated both an overall Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) rating the CDR Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB).13 The mental status evaluation included the Blessed Memory and Orientation Test,14 a set of similarities and differences, calculations, and a standardized language evaluation. Mean inter-rater reliability of the CDR rating was high (r = 0.99, p < 0.0001), as was the inter-rater reliability of the 6 CDR subcategories (r = 0.90).
Annually, a consensus diagnostic process determined 1) presence of sufficient impairment for a diagnosis of dementia, and if so, 2) whether the dementia was consistent with criteria for AD15 or another entity, e.g., frontotemporal dementia, vascular dementia.16,17 Diagnoses were based on clinical history, medical records, laboratory evaluation, and neuroimaging studies (presence of infarcts). Only subjects with a diagnosis of probable AD on follow-up were included in the converter group.
Subjects were administered a neuropsychological battery.10 Three test scores from this battery were selected for analysis in the present study because they had previously been shown to be sensitive predictors of progression from MCI to AD.18 The three scores were total recall score on the California Verbal Learning Test (CVLT),19 free recall score on the Selective Reminding Test (SRT),20 and time to complete Trail Making Test B.21 Mean interval between acquisition of the MRI scan and the semi-structured interview was 4.7 months; mean interval between acquisition of the MRI scan and administration of the neuropsychological tests was 3.6 months.
MRI scans were obtained at baseline and were repeated, based on a priori criteria concerning progression in level of clinical severity (i.e., subjects who crossed specific thresholds were reevaluated; those who remained stable for specific amounts of time were also reevaluated) (figure). This approach oversamples subjects who are changing the most in comparison to those who remain stable.
MRI scans were acquired on a 1.5-T scanner (General Electric, Milwaukee, WI). T1-weighted three-dimensional spoiled gradient echo (SPGR) scans were acquired using the following sequence: coronal acquisition, repetition time = 35 msec, echo time = 5 msec, field of view = 220 mm, flip angle = 45°, slice thickness = 1.5 mm, matrix size = 256 * 256 NEX = 1.
Each individual's registered scan pair was assessed for problems of movement artifact, adequacy of scan coverage of the whole head, and change in acquisition parameters. Scan pairs were given a grading of unusable (unlikely to give a reliable estimate of volume change) or usable. Any scan pairs with a change that appeared to be due to poor scan pair quality were not included in the study.
The first MRI scan was acquired at baseline for all subjects. For controls and nonconverters, we used the follow-up scan obtained approximately 3 years after baseline. For converters, we used the scan that was obtained closest in time to the consensus diagnosis of AD.
The MRI scans were processed using the FreeSurfer software package (http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu).22,23 The ROIs that were generated were examined for anatomic accuracy and edited by an anatomically knowledgeable operator (R.S.D.), in order to ensure that they adhered to previously published boundary definitions.24 We focused on 14 ROIs from the temporal and parietal cortices. These included 1) banks of superior temporal sulcus, 2) entorhinal cortex, 3) fusiform gyrus, 4) inferior parietal lobule, 5) inferior temporal gyrus, 6) isthmus of cingulate cortex, 7) posterior cingulate cortex, 8) middle temporal gyrus, 9) parahippocampal gyrus, 10) precuneus cortex, 11) superior parietal lobule, 12) superior temporal gyrus, 13) supramarginal gyrus, and 14) temporal pole.
The non-neocortical regions of the brain were edited by an anatomically knowledgeable operator (R.J.K.), as needed, in order to ensure that they adhered to previously published boundary definitions.12 We selected two non-neocortical ROIs: amygdala and hippocampus.
In total, 16 neocortical and non-neocortical temporoparietal ROIs were used in this study. For all of the analyses performed here, the volume of the right and the left hemispheres for each individual ROI were added together. The ROIs from the baseline scans were utilized to help identify regions on follow-up scans.25
To account for differences in the time between MRI scans, the atrophy rate for each ROI was expressed as annualized percent change (APC), using the formula (timepoint 1 volume − timepoint 2 volume)/(timepoint 1 volume) * (time between scans) * 100. This measure has been employed in a number of previous MRI studies.26–28 The APC values for each ROI were analyzed using a multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA), with group as a between subject variable. Since age differed between the groups at baseline, the MANOVA performed included baseline age as a covariate. In order to determine the exact nature of the difference between the groups and control for multiple comparisons, the overall MANOVA was by followed by Tukey HSD tests.29
In order to compare the magnitude of the differences among the groups in terms of rates of atrophy, effect sizes were computed for those ROIs with greater rates of atrophy on the basis of the post hoc comparisons. The effect size was measured using the Cohen d.30
The clinical relevance of these effect size calculations was evaluated by power calculations to determine the sample size needed for a theoretical clinical trial that used the three with the largest effect size. Sample size estimates needed to detect both a 25% and a 50% treatment effect were performed.31 All calculations incorporated the assumption that a clinical trial should have 90% power to detect a treatment effect, with a two-tailed 5% level of significance. Sample size estimates were recalculated to reflect a 10% loss to follow-up, and an additional 10% loss of MRI scans. Similar estimates were calculated for the CDR-Sum of Boxes and the Selective Reminding Test.
Correlation coefficients were used to examine the relationship between rates of atrophy in the ROIs and rates of change in the measures of clinical status for the subjects who were MCI at baseline. Spearman rank correlation coefficients32 were utilized. In order to account for multiple comparisons a p value of ≤0.01 was used for interpreting statistical significance.
Table 2 presents the mean APC for each of the ROIs. The MANOVA revealed an effect of group (Wilks' lambda = 2.04, df = 32, p = 0.004). Post hoc comparisons demonstrated that six ROIs were different between converters and nonconverters: hippocampus (p < 0.001), temporal pole (p < 0.001), entorhinal cortex (p < 0.01), fusiform gyrus (p < 0.01), middle temporal gyrus (p < 0.01), and inferior temporal gyrus (p < 0.01). Post hoc comparisons between converters and controls demonstrated that six ROIs were different, including hippocampus (p < 0.001), entorhinal cortex (p < 0.001), temporal pole (p < 0.001), middle temporal gyrus (p < 0.01), fusiform gyrus (p < 0.01), and inferior parietal lobule (p < 0.05). None of the 16 ROIs proved to be different in the comparisons between controls and nonconverters.
Table 3 shows the effect size calculations for each ROI with a significant APC, based on the post hoc comparisons (d values greater than 0.73 correspond to an effect size of p < 0.05). Between converters and controls, large effects were observed for hippocampus (d = 1.69), entorhinal cortex (d = 1.53), temporal pole (d = 1.51), fusiform gyrus (d = 1.01), and middle temporal gyrus (d = 1.0). Between converters and nonconverters, large effects were observed for hippocampus (d = 1.39), temporal pole (d = 1.17), middle temporal gyrus (d = 0.88), fusiform gyrus (d = 0.87), and entorhinal cortex (d = 0.84).
We calculated sample size estimates needed to detect 25% and 50% reduction for the ROIs that demonstrated the largest effect size for comparison of controls vs converters (i.e., entorhinal cortex, hippocampus, temporal pole). Estimates were calculated for each ROI individually and for a ROI that combined the three. All subjects categorized as MCI at baseline were included in the analysis. The estimated sample sizes were smaller for the three ROIs in combination than for any of the ROIs individually (table 4). Moreover, the sample size estimates for each MRI-based ROI were notably smaller than any clinical or cognitive measures.
For the correlations between the ROIs that differed and the annualized change in clinical measures, all of the ROIs, except the inferior parietal lobule, demonstrated a strong relationship (hippocampus [r = −0.52, p = 0.001], entorhinal cortex [r = −0.51, p = 0.001], temporal pole [r = −0.47, p = 0.001], and middle temporal gyrus [r = −0.46, p = 0.002]) with CDR-SB. With CVLT, only hippocampus (r = 0.44, p = 0.003) showed a relationship. With SRT, none of the ROIs showed a relationship. With Trails B, only entorhinal cortex showed a relationship (r = −0.37, p = 0.01).
Results show that specific temporal and parietal cortices have greater rates of atrophy in MCI subjects who progress to AD within 4–5 years than controls who remain cognitively normal and MCI subjects who do not progress to AD within this time frame. Three regions that were most discriminate were hippocampus, entorhinal cortex, and temporal pole. Of clinical interest, atrophy rates in these regions correlated with changes in clinical severity and declines in cognition. Utilizing the atrophy rate from a combined measure of these regions reduced the estimated sample size needed for a clinical trial in MCI.
The hippocampal APC had the largest effect size overall. The entorhinal cortex had a large effect size in comparison of controls vs converters. These findings corroborate reported progressive atrophy in these medial temporal regions in the evolution of AD.33
These results emphasize the importance of other regions within the temporal and parietal lobes as antemortem markers of AD. In particular, atrophy within the temporal pole has not been previously reported. Additional regions as markers of AD include fusiform gyrus and middle temporal gyrus. Examination of other reports reveal that these regions were included within areas identified by comparing groups of converters and controls, using voxel-based morphometry6,34 or fluid registration methods.7
The atrophy rates of controls and nonconverters in this study were not different from one another. Atrophy rates of nonconverters fell midway between those of controls and converters for most ROIs (table 2). We found that the effect size of the entorhinal cortex approached statistical significance in the comparison of controls and nonconverters indicating that more work needs to be done to better understand the differences between these groups.
A concern in this study pertains to the difference in baseline age between the groups. Since converters were older than the other groups at baseline, one possibility is that age could be a cause for the increased rates of atrophy observed. In order to investigate this possibility, a MANOVA, using intracranial-corrected volumes for each ROI at the baseline timepoint, with baseline age as a covariate and group as a between subjects variable, was conducted. This analysis showed that the hippocampus, entorhinal cortex, and temporal pole did not differ between the groups indicating that disease progression, not age, is the underlying factor.
The regions that did not differ between the groups in the prodromal phase of AD are also of interest. They include amygdala, banks of superior temporal sulcus, superior parietal lobule, superior temporal gyrus, supramarginal gyrus, precuneus, and posterior and isthmus portions of cingulate cortex. Differential atrophy in three of these regions (precuneus, posterior and isthmus of cingulate) has been reported in other studies.6,7 Differences between those studies and this one that may influence the outcome include clinical characteristics of subjects, size of groups, and image analysis techniques.
Differential atrophy within temporal lobe regions during prodromal AD reported here (i.e., entorhinal cortex, hippocampus, temporal pole, middle temporal gyrus, fusiform gyrus, and inferior temporal gyrus) are consistent with neurofibrillary changes reported in postmortem cases.1,2 Differential atrophy within parietal lobe regions (i.e., inferior parietal lobule) may be more related to both amyloid and tangle pathology. The preponderance of accelerated atrophy within temporal lobe regions may, in part, explain reports that neurofibrillary tangle number correlates better with cognitive performance than amyloid pathology.35
Correlations between atrophy rates in the three regions with the largest effect size (i.e., hippocampus, entorhinal cortex, and temporal pole) and change in the measures of clinical severity (i.e., CDR-SB) suggest the potential of using these MRI measures as surrogate markers of underlying disease. Correlations between changes in atrophy of hippocampus and changes in episodic memory (CVLT and the SRT) are consistent with the fact that declines in episodic memory are reported as predictors of progression.
The atrophy rates reported here correspond to previous reports. For entorhinal cortex and hippocampus, the APC for controls was less than 1% per year, and for converters 3–4% per year. This is comparable to rates reported by investigators using voxel-based morphometry techniques.6 It is slightly less than that reported by investigators who have outlined these regions manually.28,36
The sample size estimates presented here are greater than those in another study.36 This difference may be related to the nature of the subject population. For example, the mean MMSE score of the subjects in the other report was 26, whereas MMSE score of this sample was 29. This indicates that the subjects in the present study were more mildly impaired than those in the prior study. Differences in conversion rates across studies are likely the result of the same phenomenon.
Taken together, the findings in this report represent a novel approach to the analysis of MRIs among cases of prodromal AD. The MRI data presented here correlate with measures of clinical severity and cognitive decline, and can feasibly be utilized in therapeutic trials of MCI, affirming the utility of this approach for identifying antemortem markers of prodromal AD. The results also suggest that a broader range of structural MRI measures than have previously been identified may be useful as surrogate markers for the evolution of neuropathology in AD.37

Cookin with The Columns: A little help from my friends
Off and on since my birthday in March, I've been giving you recipes that my friends brought me that day. These are the last two recipes, I think. They were in no particular order, and I am printing the Breakfast Casserole recipe from Rubye Walton, but I saved the funny one for last. It's from Wendy Smith who is well-known in our church not as a cook but as a "buy it already cooked" person. Her "recipe" is for Donuts.

Why do you think Scott Layel will not be elected again?
Posted in the Rutledge Forum
#1 Jun 10, 2013
He has failed us all
Since: Aug 12
Location hidden
#2 Jun 10, 2013
Failed us all is a broad statement. He hasn't failed us all. The criminal element is thriving under Layel's administration.
We the tax payers are the ones he has failed. We watch as our neighbors are robbed nightly and sometimes in broad daylight. Their belongings are not recovered, they do not receive restitution and justice is not served. We watch as more and more young people become addicted to drugs and turn to selling drugs or robbing us to support their habits. We watch as innocent lives are taken and others are changed forever. We watch as people say they have tried to get ahold of our sheriff with no results. We watch as people say they have called the police and no one showed up. We watch as the television news exposes his lies to us. We are watching when he doesn't show up to court or to major crime scenes within our county.
The main reason Scott Layel should not be re-elected to office is because we, the tax payers, deserve better. I would like to think that the people of Grainger County are smart enough to kick the garbage to the curb. If something is not working, you either fix it or get rid of it. He has had a long time to fix it, and has not. So, it is time we replace him.
#3 Jun 10, 2013
I stand corrected, you are absolutely correct in your comment. I am so upset with him and what he has not done. He pulled the wool over my head and that upsets me dearly. I have been reading about that Hanna from Bean Station, he sounds so intelligent and he sounds like he will do us all some good. What a mess he will have if he gets elected. We need to pray.
#4 Jun 10, 2013
I can't tell you why he won't be reelected, but I can tell you why he'll not get my vote. He has done a very poor job tackling the war on drugs. He makes a "big bust" ever once in awhile and makes sure he's on scene before the press takes pictures, and thats about it.
You spoke of young people, I'm one of em'. I'm a 22 year old OIF veteran, legally armed citizen, and registered voter. And I'm sick and tired of the damn dealers and junkies in my area. I've been to the police 3 times with names and the best times to catch them, and absolutely nothing has been done about it. That, my friend, is why I will not vote for Scott. Jim Hannan seems to have a solid plan for eliminating this problem, that's who will probably get my vote.
#5 Jun 12, 2013
Hoot, you certainly nailed that. I really enjoyed your comment. I agree with you, I have been reading about Hannan and his plans, he has got it together. He got my vote to !!
United States
#6 Jun 12, 2013
He has shown NO LEADERSHIP that is zero for we the people he needs another job that's my opinion
United States
#7 Jun 22, 2013
I agree with u hoot, I think hannan is going to b my choice too. he sounds very inteligant. before I would vote for layel again I would prefer to go 4 years with out a sheriff
#8 Jul 1, 2013
I'm guessing he won't be re-elected due to lack of votes....now that's just a guess, lol.
As for Hannan, you make comments he is 'very intelligent' but can't type a coherent sentence. Due to the fact that criminal prosecution and law in general, is very dependent on accurate wording/statements, I would say he's in trouble in that department.
United States
#9 Jul 5, 2013
because he is an rectalapature.
#10 Jul 6, 2013
I heard he only beat harville by less than 100 votes last election I'd say we should be tired of ex troopers by now and no count sheriffs, has anyone woke up yet, maybe ya'll like whats going on in our county, ya think
United States
#11 Jul 6, 2013
Casper will not be re-elected because he will not be able to beat Jim Hannan. He won't be able to beat him because Jim has the better plan for taking back our county, he has better experience in dealing with hard-core, entrenched criminal activity, and he will get tough on crime.
There will be no Holiday Inn in the Justice Center while Hannan is in office, but there will be integrity and honesty in the sheriff's office. There will also be openness in dealing with the public.
Some have stated that he can't seem to type a coherent sentence, and, I'll admit, he makes a lot of typos, but wait until you see his hands....they're HUGE! That might be why he can't seem to fit his fingers to the keyboard, but I am not certain. They can certainly fit a gun trigger, and he will take aim at crooks. That's why I support him. We need the criminal activity and the nepotism stopped in this county.
There have always been way too many back-hall deals and favors in the court house, and it needs to stop. Big Jim Hannan will stop that, I can tell you.
He's a great man, and I can't wait until he takes the sheriff's office and airs the place out. A new broom sweeps clean.
#12 Jul 6, 2013
He is out of touch...out of touch, not a leader,
not qualified, no integrety, no morals and not a Sheriff never there...waste of tax money....arrests
or participates in drug arrests for same as his habits best I can understand...no interest in crime just arresting addicted people

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry has delivered her first child, a girl, People magazine reported on Sunday.
The location and the baby's name were not disclosed, but the report quoted a spokeswoman for Berry as saying that the 41-year-old actress was "doing great." The father is Gabriel Aubry, a 32-year-old model.
Berry, who won an Oscar in 2002 for her lead role as the lover of a white prison guard in "Monster's Ball," adopted the daughter of her second husband, singer Eric Benet. The couple broke up in 2003 after less than three years of marriage.

The Bachelor of Health Sciences degree program offers excellent preparation for students interested in a career in medicine. The courses offered provide students with differing perspectives across the spectrum of health sciences concentrations, and our graduates are well-prepared to apply for admission to medical schools both inside Canada and internationally. The information below provides an overview of the admission process to medical schools in Canada, and students are encouraged to do their own research into the specific medical schools in which they are interested.
Before the Application
Do What You Love
If you do, you'll tend to thrive! Choose a university program that interests you since you will usually attain better marks learning something that fascinates you. Be aware that you do not have to be enrolled in a health sciences program in order to apply to medical school. Most (but not all) schools require specific pre‐requisite courses–however, they can be completed in conjunction with any degree program.
Research the Profession
Consider conducting information interviews with doctors, medical students and residents. Ask your family physician for an appointment to discuss your career goals and his or her experiences in the field. Know the realities of the day‐to‐day work and how it fits with what you know about yourself. Be realistic and informed by exploring other career options in addition to the role of physician.
Meet the Prerequisites
Know what courses are required and obtain them at any time before you apply. To test out your fit with the medical school curriculum and to enable you to apply to many schools, you may want to consider including the desired prerequisites for a variety of schools in your program. Each medical school has slightly different prerequisites so always check the specific schools to ensure that these general suggestions will allow you to meet the most up‐to‐date admission requirements. As of this writing, more and more medical schools seem to be dropping specific course prerequisites.
Aim High Academically
Be sure to keep the doors open. The reality of medical school applications today is that undergraduate grades (even if you have continued your education beyond undergrad) are an extremely important part of the process. A few programs calculate GPA in unique ways (e.g. best two years or without lowest three grades) so check each program to help you strategize about where (or when) to apply.
Stay Involved
Become active in your community and with activities that mean something to you. Physicians are active and visible members of their communities, despite very busy working lives. The ability to balance academics with employment, volunteer work, sports, community and extra‐curricular interests is a trait that application committees are looking for in prospective medical students. Successful candidates often show a commitment long‐term to some activities and showcase their ability to progress to leadership positions. They also try new things that test out and allow them to demonstrate diverse interests, too.
Application Basics
Although the application for each medical school differs, the following items often form part or all of the application process. It is estimated that depending on the number of schools to which you apply, the process can take anywhere from 10 to 30 hours to complete so planning ahead is essential for success.
Deadlines for each school differ but applicants using the Ontario Medical School Application Service (OMSAS), which is required for applying to Ontario medical schools, must usually create an account by mid-September and the final deadline to submit has historically been October 1. There is also a final date that you can "attach" your MCAT results with your submitted applications. VERIFY ALL DEADLINES for the year you wish to apply. Schools outside of Ontario each have their own dates and deadlines, as do those outside of Canada. Some schools require an intent to apply for registration.
Whether you are applying through a central application service like OMSAS or directly to the school, you will need to arrange for transcripts. All the transcripts from high school and any post‐secondary programs you have attended have to be sent directly from those institutions to the medical schools to which you are applying. There is generally a fee associated with this so, factor that into your application budget. If required, contact your current and former educational institutions early to avoid last‐minute problems at deadline time.
Decide (if and) when you will write the MCAT (Medical College Admission Test)
Many students elect to take the MCAT the year prior to the year they actually apply. This can give time to re-take, if necessary and also to know your score before you actually submit an application (factors into your application strategy). Not all medical schools consider the MCAT as part of the process but most do. MCAT is an exam that takes place roughly 20 times each year. If you elect to write it, decide whether your learning style is more conducive to an MCAT preparatory course or to self‐study. Both methods have worked for students in the past. Accommodations for disabilities are also possible. Make sure to read up on the test day rules before going in for the exam!
Medical College Admission Test (MCAT)
– Schools that use the MCAT as part of the assessment process may have minimum criteria for each sections of the exam as well as an overall score. Check with the schools each year for that year's specifics about minimum requirements. It is not uncommon for students to write the MCAT more than once and each school treats this differently. For example, some programs will only consider your highest mark, while others consider the most recent mark submitted. As of this writing, students are permitted to write the MCAT up to three times per year but, may want to discuss the best strategy for this with others. In 2015, the MCAT changed its format and content, with new sections being added and some removed. Take this into account when studying. Most schools set an expiry date for MCAT results (often 3-5 years) so it is wise to check the program's guidelines early to ensure that you do not need to re‐write the exam, if you took it in the past.
In order to prepare for the MCAT, it is suggested that Bachelor of Health Sciences students take the following courses:
- General Chemistry (CHEM 113 / CHEM 114)
- Basic Physics (PHYS 118)
- Psychology (PSYC 100)
- Mammalian Cell Physiology (PHGY 170)
- Molecular Biology (BCHM 218)
In addition, the following courses would also be beneficial for MCAT preparation:
Please note that these are suggestions for MCAT preparation. It is recommended that students spend time researching the entrance requirements for specific medical schools, and also review information provided by the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), the association that administers the MCAT.
Autobiographical Sketch / Resume / CV
Many schools will ask for an itemized list (with descriptions) of activities. This can include employment, volunteer work, education, awards and accomplishments, extra‐curricular, research and other activities. You may also be asked to include the name and contact information of a person who can verify the activity. Be sure to use current contact information for the verifier so that medical schools can easily connect with them, if needed. Graduate student applicants are often required to submit additional materials such as a letter from their supervisor/program.
Personal Questions / Essay / Supplementary Materials
Some medical schools will ask applicants to submit answers or essays to general or specific questions about their goals, experiences and fit with the program. Students applying in a category such as a graduate student or aboriginal student may also be required to submit additional materials, letters or essays. This part of the application can be an extremely time‐consuming part of the application process so it is wise to start early and have others read your writing along the way. Flawless grammar and spelling are essential. Pondering the personal statements portion of the application sometimes highlights for students that they may be having difficulty articulating their specific reasons for choosing a career as a physician and defining what makes them different from other well‐qualified candidates. Tell succinct but vivid stories that enable the reader to get to know you and to see your potential contributions to the occupation of physician and to their medical school.
You may be asked to provide written recommendations. In Ontario, referees are asked to complete a Confidential Assessment Form (which you download from the OMSAS or university website) and write a letter, both of which are submitted to OMSAS. If you are given the option of who to choose, choose referees carefully. It is important to distinguish between "I am willing to write you a reference", and "I am willing to write you a positive recommendation". Try to solicit references from people who know you in different contexts (as opposed to 3 teachers, for example) and who will write about specific and positive qualities you possess. Choose people who know you well. Set up an appointment to discuss your goals, your recent activities and to help them remember specific incidences in which your best qualities stood out. Thank them in writing afterwards and let them know your progress.
After succeeding at the initial application stage, you may be invited to attend an interview at the medical school. Need help? Attend a Medical School Interview Workshop at Career Services. They are held regularly from January to April each year.
Applying Out-of-Country
Because of the extremely competitive nature of medical school entrance requirements in Canada, some applicants consider attending a medical school in the U.S., Caribbean, or elsewhere internationally. There are many factors to consider when making this decision including increased tuition and living expenses, ability to secure necessary residency training and the challenges of living in an another country.
If you want to return to Canada to practice medicine, be advised that as of this writing, that is an extremely difficult process. Read this 2010 Report from the Canadian Residency Matching Service for the latest statistics and barriers facing Canadian students studying abroad.
The process of applying to and paying for medical school can quickly become onerous with OMSAS fees (for those applying to Ontario schools) as well as fees for applying to any additional schools. There are also costs for transcripts requests from Queen's and travel & clothing expenses for interviews.
Medical school tuition ranges but can be over $20,000 per year. There is, however, some help available for both the application costs and tuition and expenses. Some of the sources mentioned here are Ontario‐based but similar programs may be available in your home or medical school province or country.

Ontario Under‐serviced Area Program: http://health.gov.on.ca/en/pro/programs/northernhealth/
Contact Student Awards at the university to which you are applying for other sources of funding.
Canadian Medical Schools
Check with each medical school to ensure that you have the most accurate and up‐to‐date admissions criteria. If you are applying to another province, ask about the number of spots available to out‐of‐ province students then build that knowledge into your application strategy. Some past information may be in the Association of Faculties of Medicine of Canada (AFMC) Admissions guide.

Monday, July 21, 2014
Earlier this month, I moved out of my parent's house and had a plan: a deposit for an apartment to move into the first week of July. The plan was to stay with my grandparents for a few weeks until it was time to move in. They were out of town for two weeks so it worked well all around. Now my grandpa's company has made some changes and they are actually planning on being gone for two weeks of every month. I've decided to live with them for the next year while they commute back and forth to Omaha for two weeks at a time. I was hesitant at first as I was so looking forward to having my own space to make my own but am so happy to be here. It's relaxing, there's a fully stocked fridge at all times, a beautiful garden, a pool, and it's close enough to my family that they're able to pop in and going out to their house for dinner doesn't seem like a trek.
I've learned that life is funny. Nothing has gone how I would have imagined and expected it to. Sometimes, even just remembering the past is painful. Wondering how things may have turned out differently is painful. Those thoughts that come late at night, clouding my mind with sadness and anger. They'll always be part of life but I can feel myself moving on from them. Just in the past few weeks, I've been more motivated and happy. Happy with litte things, like the flowers on my bedside table, my vanilla candle, a surprise delicious burger, the perfect temperature at night. It truly will always be the little things.
I'm quite enjoying my time here and am looking forward to using this time as a transition period where I have the ability to not be completely tied down. To a person, to a place, everything can change if I want it to. I see some of my friends, siblings, that have paired off so early in life and started having kids and responsibilites that they just don't seem ready for but think it may heal them. I'm so happy that I know how to be by myself and be happy with me. It's been a journey but I'm so glad to be here. To keep going and building myself and my life that I'm happy with.
Happy almost Tuesday you all. And hooray to late nights that won't let me sleep.

I was back in Nashville last week to speak at the Tennessee Center for Performance Excellence annual conference, and couldn't believe how much change the city has gone through in a few short months. In this installment of the Practically Mindful live video series, I talked about how we can learn to manage this change, however it looks.
My Personal Daily Gratitude Practice
I started a daily gratitude practice in earnest once I dedicated more of my life to the examination of living mindfully. Everywhere I looked, there was a new study telling me that the happiest, most successful people meditate and practice gratitude regularly. This single, small practice changed my life.
Make Your Workplace a Grateful Place
Workplace gratitude can be a surprisingly difficult topic to talk about. On one hand, we shouldn't have to argue much for the merits of recognizing others' efforts at work. Each of us can point to a time when we were recognized and how great it felt. At the same time, taking time out of our day to thank others can feel like a burden. Here are a few ways you can boost the gratitude meter at your work.

The BOB Protector is a unique new product designed specifically for Smart ForTwo Cars. This innovative product twists into the chassis of the vehicle using screw mounts that currently exist in the ForTwo model. The BOB (Bounce of Bumper) Protector then acts as a buffer between the rear of the car and obstructions helping to prevent scratching and denting to the bodywork.
Founded in 2012 by Rob Leake, after experiencing issues with his own Smart ForTwo being used as a bumper car outside his home in Portsmouth, the BOB Protector has come along way since its initial conception. After winning the 'Stop Dreaming, Start Believing' competition fronted by Fareham based business entrepreneur, Stuart Mundy, Rob was able to receive the financial backing needed to turn his idea into a reality. Now in 2015, the BOB is available to purchase and it is the only product on the market offering effective protection at an affordable price to Smart car owners. Designed to fit securely into the existing holes on the Smart car, attaching the product onto the vehicle is completed in two easy steps by removing the bumper caps and simply screwing the BOB Protector into place. BOB is available in a variety of colours to suit different tastes and the ergonomic design creates a stylish finish whilst remaining functional.
Talking about his product and winning the business backing, Rob Leake comments, "Winning the business backing and support from Stuart was an amazing feeling as it has enabled me to turn what had only been a dream for a long time, into a reality. Now our patent is in place, I am looking forward to launching the Bob Protector to Smart car owners, enthusiasts and dealerships and hope that all Smart Cars of the future will be sporting a BOB Protector very soon."

U.S. President Donald Trump's Hollywood Walk of Fame star has been vandalized again and this time with a mocking golden toilet.
It seems like Donald Trump is becoming the favorite target of a nationwide political street artists' movement which recently made its way to Hollywood. TMZ reports that at some point between Saturday and Sunday, the artists behind the latest vandalism in Trump's Hollywood Walk of Fame setup their gimmick.
Photos obtained by the news outlet depicted a golden toilet intentionally placed right next to Donald Trump's iconic star. The toilet was also defaced with "something wet and gross." A portion of the tank was also broken off, which mockingly reads, "Take A Trump." The broken piece was then placed on the walkway.

— TMZ (@TMZ) May 7, 2017
The golden toilet's stenciled designs — a pig wearing a crown both on top of and inside the lid — are strikingly similar to designs marked on installation pieces created by the Artfinksters.
The Artfinksters is consists of about 100 political activist artists across the United States who aimed to draw attention to their dissatisfaction with Donald Trump's government through art pieces.
"Our future projects will bring more awareness to policies, legislation, foreign policy, et cetera. This was just the ice breaker."
"Our goal and object is to bring awareness to people, to inform them about the current state of affairs," one of the artists from Artfinksters stated. "We all are strongly opposed to the current occupation of the White House and have come together to bring about change through our work."
It was also revealed that the idea of coordinated installation art pieces came after the Women's March across the U.S., just a day after Donald Trump's inauguration. Apparently, the artist "contacted almost 100 people and almost everybody was on board."
According to the artist, packets of stencils with a uniform design were sent out for the vandals. The teams will then place the golden toilets somewhere "that were highly visible, lots of foot traffic, that would get a lot of eyes and photos and conversation." That being said, Donald Trump's Hollywood Walk of Fame star fits perfectly as their venue.
"Most people just go with the status quo, and we'll play that role of being that bump in the status quo. We've brought it upon ourselves to inform the public about what's really going on."

This is not the first time that Donald Trump's Hollywood Walk of Fame star has been defaced. It can be recalled that the 70-year-old mogul faced vandalism incidents on his iconic star multiple times in the past.
In October 2016, millionaire James Otis, 53, took a pickaxe and sledge hammer, obliterating Trump's career hallmark. Otis, who did not contest the felony vandalism charge, was fined $4,400 and ordered to complete 20 days of community service. He was also put on probation for three years.
Otis revealed that he originally planned to remove the star to protest Donald Trump. He admitted that he hoped to sell the tribute and give the money to the 11 women who publicly accused President Trump of "groping" them.
However, the millionaire failed to remove the star. He then smashed it instead, claiming that he "underestimated" its durability. He later turned himself in to authorities and was released on $20,000 bond.
Some chose to express their dislike to the president by writing "F*** Trump" on his star last April while others opted to use it as protest venue on multiple occasions ever since he started his career as a politician.
So far, reports revealed that authorities are not yet investigating the latest toilet prank. Sources also claimed that no one has reported the vandalism. The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce as well as Donald Trump have not addressed the golden 'Take a Trump' toilets as of this writing.
