I am a hobbyist photographer and keen club member; competitive and sometimes creative, but always hungry to learn or to help others.
I've been interested in photography for too long to say...I don't really have the patience for landscape (doesn't stop me trying though) but love urban photos, architecture, plants, beasts and bugs, trees, infrared, night, creative, manipulated images - basically anything.
Noticeably, people are missing from the above. Until a couple of years ago my portraits were mostly candids with a rare shot on a club studio evening - then it changed, having tagged along with some inspiring people, who got me started. I've now worked with 50+ models and attended several workshops - Always keen to work with new people and develop this more.
Probably unsurprising given the above, my most successful images in competitions and international salons have been portraits (though I do still shoot practically anything) - so hopefully this is a trend I can continue.
If you like what you see - feel free to contact me.... if you don't, I'm always open to constructive feedback.
Photography is a love, passion, joy... obsession - long may it continue.

Course Overview
This award has been designed to facilitate the learning of the generic skills and knowledge essential to successful higher clinical practice and careers in academic medicine by applying the principles of the scientific method to studies in both anatomical research and clinically-applied anatomy.
About the course
Anatomy encompasses all levels of structural organisation, topographical, neuroanatomical, histological, cellular and developmental, as well as providing a basis for studies in radiological imaging and pathology.
This approach allows students to integrate recent advances in molecular genetics, cell biology, microscopy, imaging and computer simulation to biological and clinical problems concerning the human body.
Aims of the course
To provide a thorough grounding in the methods and approaches to scientific enquiry and research in the anatomical sciences.
Entry Requirements
You will need to be undertaking a Keele or other UK undergraduate Medical Degree course and wishing to take a year out of your studies to pursue a thorough grounding of scientific enquiry in the anatomical sciences and research methodologies relevant to experimental and clinical sciences.
Anyone applying from a country where English is not the first language is required to show evidence of English language competence, obtaining at least an IELTS score of 6.5 (with no subtest lower than 5.5) or hold a previous degree which has been taught and examined in English.
A comparative IELTS score to other English Language qualifications is available on the International website.
Course content
A total of 180 credits are required to achieve the Master's in Medical Science (Anatomical Sciences) degree.
One third of the credits are associated with the major dissertation/project, one third are anatomy-related taught modules with practical content, and one third comprises a combination of core generic methodology modules and a choice of modules in areas of cell and molecular biology or applied clinical science.
Core Modules (75 credits total)
Four core modules which are compulsory:
Applied Morphological Techniques and Imaging (30 credits)
This module, taken early in the semester, introduces some of the key research techniques employed in anatomical, experimental and pathological investigations, including whole body methods, optical, confocal and electron microscopy, histochemical and immunocytochemical staining methods, and quantitative techniques such as morphometry and stereology. In general, half-day theory sessions are followed by practicals and visits to various research and pathology laboratories and seminars involve critical analysis of the literature and applications to project design and research grant funding.
Applied Clinical Anatomy 1 (15 credits)
This is a six-day module spread over semester one, covering practical, theoretical and applied aspects of the anatomy and development of the muscular, nervous, cardiovascular and respiratory systems. The unit includes anatomy prosection practicals, anthropometry, ultrasound imaging and critical analysis of the research literature particularly in the field of neuromuscular anatomy, variations, anomalies, and applied anatomy.
Applied Surgical Anatomy (15 credits)
This module is taught over both semesters, providing students with the opportunity to acquire a thorough knowledge of anatomy as applied to surgical diagnoses and procedures as a foundation for understanding and developing the scientific and evidence base of current practice. Activities include anatomy dissection labs, small group work and presentations, case-based discussions and critical appraisal work on the anatomical and surgical literature and self-directed learning.
Research Methods in Health (15 credits)
This module aims to develop an understanding of the philosophical and methodological bases of health and social research.
Optional modules (45 credits total)
The decision as to what module would be most appropriate is undertaken in discussion with the course tutor, and tailored to the learning needs of the student:
Neuroanatomy (15 credits)
Statistics and Epidemiology (15 credits)
Medical Education (15 credits)
Stem Cells: Types, Diagnoses and Applications (15 credits)
Cell & Tissue Engineering (15 credits)
Physiology of Neuromusculoskeletal Tissue (15 credits)
Psychosocial Aspects of Pain (15 credits)
Concepts of Neurological Rehabilitation (15 credits)
Physiology and Pharmacology of Pain (15 credits)
Assistive Technologies in Neuromuscular Rehabilitation (15 credits)
Dynamic Ultrasound Imaging (15 credits)
This would typically take the form of one long (nine months) dissection or laboratory-based research topic written up to include a literature review, methodologies, results and discussion. It is expected to be a significant piece of work, and we encourage all students to consider aiming for presentation and/or publication of their findings. Candidates will have a local academic supervisor for their project, but in addition, some projects may also involve a clinical supervisor.
Course content is for guidance purposes only and may be subject to change.
Teaching and assessment
Teaching takes place in the anatomy dissecting rooms and surgical training suite, multiuser and physiotherapy laboratories, seminar rooms and IT facilities. A wide range of clinical and scientific staff contribute to the courses.
The taught modules are assessed in a variety of ways including, for example, written assignments/essays to hand in, powerpoint presentations, anatomy viva, ultrasound practical skills assessment. The research project requires writing a mini thesis to include literature review, methods, results and discussion.
Additional costs
Apart from additional costs for text books, inter-library loans and potential overdue library fines we do not anticipate any additional costs for this postgraduate programme.

Madison, N.J. – This year marks the 80th anniversary of the Night of Broken Glass in Germany and two witnesses to the devastation that Nazis unleashed will share their recollections during a talk at Drew University.
The witnesses, Peter Lederman and Erwin Ganz, were young boys when Nazis murdered and imprisoned Jews, destroyed synagogues and leveled the homes and businesses of Jews. The talk will take place Nov. 13 in Room 106 of the Dorothy Young Center for the Arts, beginning at 4 p.m.
The event is presented by the Drew Center for Holocaust/Genocide Study with support from the Jackie Berke Fund, Sylvia Holder Fund and Hedy and Jay Brasch in memory of Alexander, Elizabeth and Eva Ellenbogen.
About the Center
Founded in 1992 through a grant from the New Jersey Commission on Holocaust Education, the Center for Holocaust/Genocide Study offers a variety of events. We schedule—as permanent anchors in our programming—an annual November conference in memory ofKristallnacht (Night of Broken Glass) and an annual Yom HaShoah (Day of Remembrance) commemoration. We also offer films, lectures, performances, workshops and commemorative events dealing with the Holocaust and with other genocides such as those in Armenia, Bosnia, Cambodia, Darfur and Rwanda. We enrich Drew's undergraduate and graduate course work by bringing notable scholars and speakers to campus, organizing visits to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and providing additional resources that enhance the study of Holocaust and genocide. We also support faculty research. For example, we commissioned an English translation of a German text dealing with Nazi slave labor camps. All events are open to the larger community.

Impaired Risk View: Hemophilia
Submitted by matt on Wed, 06/07/2017.
Once a disastrous disease with markedly shortened life expectancy, hemophilia is now both a treatable as well as insurable disease in most instances. It is important to realize that hemophilia not only comes in many types, but also in many degrees of severity.

Life in the Fast Lane
On our way toward Yosemite (actually 8/8/10), we stopped for the day at Mt. Shasta in Northern California. We drove Buster to the top...not sure why this appeared to be a good idea, but it was cool and the view was great. Max and Joe convince me to ride bikes down the mountain with Max. We rode 14 miles downhill, going 20+mph. As we neared the bottom, Max says, "I'm done. Are you done? I'm so done." I was done too.

when we ask each n every women/girl in this world whether they want to be lean or slim or get a beautiful body shape..im sure they will definitely give an answer ' YES ! ' i've read some tips about how to loose weight n i think that tips are also good...yeah..u just control what u eat.exercise, ..but mayb it doesn't work for some people rite..then i found another tips from medical student blog about loose weight while sleeping..here is the content of the article,,,feel free to read~
If your not loosing weight even though you exercise and eat healthy, then you should probably look at your sleeping habits..
If you want to loose weight then make sure that you get enough sleep. A new research at the university of Chicago has showed that people that gets 8,5 hours sleep per night losses 55% more fat than those who only sleeps 5,5 hours.
Sleep deprivation disturb both the appetite and the body's metabolism. It causes the body to secret more of the hormone ghreline, which makes us store more fat and feel hungry.
Even though the participants in the study ate just as much, the ones who slept more lost more weight and kept their new weight more easily.
*** so what is ur opinion??? wateva it is, keep practice a healthy lifestyle..sure u can maintain ur normal body weight...

One of the world's most remote capital cities is aiming to become an electric vehicle "hotspot" and a showcase for green technology, according to the prime minister of the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan.
Tshering Tobgay and other government officials said in Thimpu this week that the plan was to start replacing official government vehicles with the Nissan Leaf, an electric car, by March. Taxis and family cars would be gradually supplanted by locally assembled electric vehicles.
Carlos Ghosn, chief executive of Renault-Nissan, met Mr Tobgay in Thimpu recently for talks on the supply of cars and battery charging systems. Mr Tobgay also has been in touch with other electric vehicle makers including Tesla of the US.
"This government is going to attempt to make Thimpu an electric vehicle hotspot. We are confident that electric vehicles can take off here," Mr Tobgay said in an interview with foreign reporters. Bhutan's main export is electricity sent to India from hydro-electric plants, but the prime minister noted that almost all the proceeds of these clean energy exports were then used to import fossil fuels for transport.
Bhutan, a mountainous and largely Buddhist nation squeezed between India and China, is known for championing gross national happiness (GNH) instead of focusing merely on gross domestic product, and environmental sustainability is an important part of the GNH philosophy.
Some Bhutanese say the car plan is a "pet project" of Mr Tobgay, whose democratically elected government – the second in the country's history – has been in office for only three months.
But Bhutanese officials, as well as Nissan executives and Tashi Wangchuk of Thunder Motors, the assembler of local prototypes, say Thimpu and its population of 120,000 present the ideal opportunity for such a venture: electricity is cheap; most road trips are short; residents depend heavily on a fleet of 3,500 small taxis; and the introduction of hundreds of electric vehicles will have an immediate impact in a small city that would be impossible to achieve in a metropolis such as Tokyo.

Let he who has not been convicted of 24 counts of mail and wire fraud cast the first stone.
Disgraced televangelist and Tasty Pantry Deluxe Plus Bucket salesman Jim Bakker is getting fed up with his critics, especially those who routinely make fun of the self-proclaimed prophet who said the hurricane that recently wrecked Houston and surrounding parts of Texas was a "judgement on America."
"I'm so sick of people saying, well, that prophesy didn't come true!" said Bakker during an episode of "The Jim Bakker Show" highlighted by Right Wing Watch.
He proceeded to discuss how he "got 31 things from God," including a heads-up that 9/11 would occur, and shared that information with people on New Year's Eve 1999.
With presumably as much taste as one of his 7-pound Fiesta Buckets, which he sells along with numerous other survival-related products on his website, he then showed footage of 2 WTC exploding in fire.
Getting suddenly upset, Bakker shouted, "When God says something to you, you don't always know the exact time it's going to happen! And stop beating up the prophets! Because God says woe unto you when you beat up the prophets."
It's unclear if God told Bakker he'd be incarcerated for nearly five years following accusations of defrauding followers of $158 million.
"If you take time to read this book, you'd realize that everybody in this book talked with God!" he continued, waving a Bible around. "Even Satan and donkeys talked to God! The only ones not talking to God these days are some mean people in America. People who are just 'anti-Christ.'"
Finally, he turned his attention to those Bakker haters "that monitor me every day to try to destroy me."
To them, the man accused of raping his church secretary warned, "One day, you're going to shake your fist in God's face. And you're going to say, 'God, why didn't you warn me?' He's gonna say, 'You sat there and you made fun of Jim Bakker all those years. I warned you, but you didn't listen.'"

A de-asphalter is a unit in a crude oil refinery or bitumen upgrader that separates asphalt from crude oil or bitumen.
The de-asphalter unit is usually placed after the vacuum distillation tower. It is usually a solvent de-asphalter unit, SDA. The SDA separates the asphalt from the feedstock because light hydrocarbons will dissolve aliphatic compounds but not asphaltenes. The output from the de-asphalter unit is de-asphalted oil ("DAO") and asphalt.
DAO from propane de-asphalting has the highest quality but lowest yield, whereas using pentane may double or triple the yield from a heavy feed, but at the expense of contamination by metals and carbon residues that shorten the life of downstream cracking catalysts.[1] If the solvent is butane the unit will be referred to as a butane de-asphalter ("BDA") and if the solvent is propane, it will be called a propane de-asphalter ("PDA") unit.

Defendant in this case was alleged to be involved with others in a so called "Cash for Crash" Fraud. In particular, it was alleged that he and others had conspired to deliberately crash their vehicle in order to make false insurance injury claims. Repeated requests for disclosure resulted in the Crown serving a large quantity of material on the morning of the trial. In an extraordinary turnaround that material demonstrated that it was in fact the Complainants who had been involved in no less than 5 road traffic accidents between June 2011 and October 2012 and had made a series of dubious personal injury claims. The Crown immediately offered no evidence and Mr T was acquitted of all charges. The discovery, which only arose as a result of a pro-active and focused approach being taken in respect to disclosure, resulted in the Judge ordering that the complainant's conduct be referred to the DPP for consideration as to whether they ought to be charged with perverting the course of justice. We strongly believe that had it not been for our diligent approach the outcome may have been different.

Message: Hello, well I don't know where to start, one thing that I find difficult is to let go of things. A lot of people see me as a very strong girl so they feel the need to insult me or throw words at me of things I suffer with (such as my weight I have PCOS, and calling me a slut because apparently, I look good). It builds up in me and I feel like a crushed cookie inside. I always feel the need for acceptance and become quite desperate for others to like me. I know I may sound all over the place but I feel I am all over the place.
Dear Female, 23
First, thank you so much for opening up and for your trust.
Your message, I must admit, angered me a little bit. But not because you are feeling the way you are feeling but because of the society that made you feel like this. Believe it or not, one too many times I have to try to help undo the damage society opposes on us. We all have the need to bond and belong somewhere and if we don't have this soft place to fall to build healthy self-esteem and self-confidence we end up fishing for attention and compliments to compensate what we couldn't really get in the first place. Acceptance.
But this is a double-edged sword because even though we need a secure and healthy social network, we should not depend on it too much. I tell you to know what many self-help books preach. Acceptance begins from within. Every single person who roams this planet carries insecurities you wouldn't know of. And some even master the art of hiding it, that one would think the don't have a worry in the world. But the reality is much different. Those models you see on the covers of many publications are often haunted by demons you wouldn't know of.
Being a target of hatred and ridicule isn't easy and it can lead to serious cracks in the own world view and the way people around us are perceived. As though they were a better version of the human kind. But remember this one thing, almost everything that has been ever said to you, was also a projection of the things the other person was feeling/seeing. Happy, or let's say settled and content, people don't spread hatred and pain, they act with kindness and when advice is sincere, they will make you understand that advice is sincere, you will simply feel it as it will not be an attack against you. People who sincerely care about you and your well-being will listen to you and try to help you find a solution for inner and outer conflicts.
Now, do all people who mock you and make fun of you, or even insult you, hate you? Certainly not, some of them can be the closest people in your life, such as your parents or siblings for instance. They do love you. But they are, much as you, in too much pain to realize that they are hurting you too. Or maybe, they realize that they hurt you but they don't want to be the only person in pain.
People in despair are not simply people in despair. Many awful crimes are committed by people who cannot stand their pain anymore and never learned how to regulate it.
I have two little tips for you to go on about your day whenever you are under attack and you feel too weak to stand up for yourself. Or maybe you feel that in the moment you are not witty enough to say something back to take control of the situation. Before you allow pain to get to you. Do this:
The first one is easier than the other. Rationalizing simply means to follow a guideline of well-put steps. And they always include questions you must as yourself. Like, is this attack really about me and the way I look? Is there, even in the slightest, a possibility that the person addressing you is not feeling good about themselves? How was their upbringing? Is that maybe the only way they were ever taught to bring up things they dislike? By using harsh criticism. You will realize very quick, that things are not always necessarily about you. And when you find a bit of truth in what they say to you, ask yourself, do you want to change this? Or is this worth saying, this is who I am and whoever dislikes it, can just go away?
Regulating emotions is much harder but strongly linked to rationalizing the situation. To regulate an emotion or make you feel okay with a situation it requires some self-work. Be certain of who you are and who you want to become. This does include everything from a personal and professional point of view. Once you have an idea who you are, it will be easier to detect feelings that not necessarily part of this vision. You can exercise by detecting any emotion during the day and try to actively change it by distracting yourself or telling yourself that a situation is not what it seems. Let's say you are afraid of flying and on that day you have a flight to catch, remind yourself that flying is actually one of the most secure ways of transportation and that accidents happen less often than car accidents for example. That will quickly calm you down.
One last thing that crosses my mind while writing is talking to the person who hurt you. Sometimes people are not really aware of what they are doing. We all are the main character of our individual lives. We see things from our own perspective most of the time. And sometimes we do not realize that words or actions can hurt someone else around us. If you feel comfortable enough to speak to that person because you see them as someone important to you, you should bring it up next time you are having a good moment together. Their reaction may surprise you. You may realize that their intentions were pure but the execution was poor.
One last thing, you are beautiful. No matter what. We are born unique, the more we adapt to our environment the more we forget that.
I hope I could help you out a little.

Since the time of Cartier-Bresson, documentary photographers have been hunting images on the streets and crossing paths with tourists and the places they congregate. It's inevitable that in the process of capturing the life of a city there is an intersection between the photographer and these observers of culture and places. The world of travellers.
You are a Tourist references this interaction. An interpretation by four Calgary based photographers of what this interaction means to them. Whether through their own travel or at home, they capture the clash of society and its interlopers. (Colour)
Cary Schatz
Cary is a SAIT graduate with a focus on Documentary photography.
"I try to capture not just moments but a feeling in each photograph. There is a hidden communication that occurs from the subject to viewer and I want to tap into that."
JC Yepes
JC was Manila-born and Calgary-raised. His curiosity leads him to forever indulge in the bliss of people-watching. Whether here in Calgary or elsewhere, he is always attempting to capture little snippets of the theatre of life.
Philip David
Photography for Philip is a time capsule, memories that have come and gone. Framing his world, as the decisive moment happens.
"Each day is a minor eternity of over 86,000 seconds, depending on how we think of them, our lives can be infinitely long or infinitely short." ― Robert Grudin, Time and the Art of Living
Brandynn LP
Brandynn LP is an artist that is currently based out of Calgary, Alberta but spends only about half their time in the city. Many of the images that they take are while on tour with various musicians, whether it is the more candid or from the live performances. Photography is meant to be a collaborative effort between Brandynn as a photographer as well as the subject, passionate people working together to create a still of a moment in time.

clean up crew
When shooting staff portraits for the new Hastee Pay website at their London offices, we always knew it was going to end up as a simple white background.
However, occasionally we also need to shoot full length without the benefits of shooting in a pro-studio. We are used to finding quick solutions when out 'in the field' and in this case used a white sheet on the floor knowing it could be cleaned up during post production editing.

Guadalupe Fur Seals (Arctocephalus townsendi)
Guadalupe Fur Seals are uniform dark brown to black with adult males considerably longer and larger-bodied than the females. Females give birth from early June through early July, with a peak in late June. Guadalupe fur seals are not common along the West Coast of the United States as they are primarily seen at Guadalupe Island, Mexico. However, their presence along the West Coast has increased and the last several years more and more pups are born on the Channel Islands off of Southern California. Historically (1500-1700 AD), these animals were seen as far North as the Northwest Washington Coast. These animals started showing up in the Pacific Northwest again around 2005 and in 2007 NOAA Fisheries had an unusual mortality event (UME) where 19 animals stranded.
The current primary threat to the Guadalupe fur seal is entanglement; however commercial sealing did reduce the population to only a few dozen animals by the 1800's.

(Editor's Note: Arena Media, as the digital AOR for the Maxi-Peel Tunayserye campaign, was and is responsible mainly for its online campaign development. Publicis Jimenez Basic, as their creative agency, was the originator for the idea and content for the campaign.)
The fairy tale is all too familiar: the hopeful duckling magically transforms into the confident swan. But what goes on between the first page and the happy ending? That is the real story. Maxi-PeelÔÇÖs gutsy Tunayserye campaign goes raw and real as it tells the story in-betweenÔÇöthe day-by-day journey to achieving renewed beauty. Through Maxi-PeelÔÇÖs partnership with Arena Media, we saw this first-of-its-kind transformation story unfold online.
The Tunayserye campaign was created to solidify Maxi-PeelÔÇÖs position as the undisputed leader and trusted solution in its category by proving beyond all doubts that Maxi-Peel works. For 55 days, Tunayserye followed the life of Jeff Serrano, a young Filipina who dreams of being a celebrity, but whose opportunities have been repeatedly hindered by pimples. Jeff saw a new hope as Maxi-Peel proved effective after months of daily use, clearing out her pimples and giving her skin renewed beauty.
Tunayserye was more than just about the daily progress of JeffÔÇÖs skin; it was about chronicling her emotions as she went through the process. More than the evolution of her face, Maxi-Peel showed the evolution of her personality. Digital was the answer, and Arena Media was appointed as the agency who would bring the transformation story alive on digital and social media.
The episodes were uploaded online, following JeffÔÇÖs journey day-by-dayÔÇöfrom her first days still plagued by acne, to her emotional days of peeled reddish cheeks, to her final days of confidence and clear skin. Various forms of social media content were born out of each Tunayserye episode: how-to guides, inspirational posts, Facebook Live sessions, memes, and quirky hashtags.
Each digital platform had its own special content, creating a unique and engaging multi-channel experience. While the episodic vlogs were housed in Maxi-PeelÔÇÖs YouTube channel, the brandÔÇÖs official Facebook page shared memorable moments and tips for curious fans. On Instagram, the go-to app for beauty enthusiasts, it was all about highlighting JeffÔÇÖs ever-evolving beauty. Creating this multitude of content was no simple task. A campaign that chronicled daily life on multiple channels with various types of content required constant and continuous collaboration between the brand and the agencies involved.
Through Arena MediaÔÇÖs digital and social media efforts, JeffÔÇÖs story spread like wildfire the across the Filipino internet community. Facebook users swarmed to the Maxi-Peel page to send Jeff messages of encouragement and ask about product usage. Even some of the most influential Filipinas on Twitter and Instagram, including beauty bloggers and celebrities, posted their reactions to JeffÔÇÖs adventures and cheered her on. Online news sites raved about TunayseryeÔÇÖs authenticity and relatability, with Inquirer.net calling it honest, unpretentious and surprisingly addicting.
As a result, Maxi-PeelÔÇÖs social media engagement jumped from 9% pre-campaign to 49% by end-campaignÔÇöa staggering 900% growth. At the peak of its campaign, Maxi-Peel's engagement┬áout-voiced its closest competitor by 50%.
More importantly, the brand's Facebook pageÔÇöalso managed by Arena MediaÔÇösaw a quadruple increase of product usage inquiries during the campaign period.
Jos Ortega, Chairman and CEO of Arena MediaÔÇÖs parent agency Havas Ortega, expressed his excitement over the partnership. ÔÇťWeÔÇÖve been at the forefront of digital for a while now, producing pioneering solutions for brands that are just entering the digital sphere. With the integrated services of our agencies as well, its very easy for us to pull resources from our different specialities as needed. WeÔÇÖre excited to connect Maxi-Peel with their existing loyal fanbase and an even newer generation of consumers in a more direct and exciting way, and use digital media to strengthen the relationship further,ÔÇŁ Ortega said.
With Maxi-PeelÔÇÖs boldness to create game-changing campaigns matched with Arena MediaÔÇÖs expertise in digital and social media, Tunayserye achieved an enviable featÔÇöinspiring Filipina dreamers to take on the journey to newfound hope with the trusted and proven solution to their beauty and self-esteem issues.
Meanwhile, Jeff opens the next chapter to her story with a song also penned by Arena Media. The song, titled ÔÇťBagong Ganda,ÔÇŁ is the anthem of JeffÔÇÖs newfound hope: ÔÇťNgayong may confidence, ÔÇśdi na nagtatago / Mga pangarap ko ay nagagawa ko.ÔÇŁ Indeed, her story is not over yet. Follow JeffÔÇÖs continuing journey with Maxi-Peel on facebook.com/MaxiPeelSkinCare.

In my most recent blog on the Huffington Post UK – called Medical Mistakes and the Intuition Factor – an amazingly courageous and forthright doctor spills the beans about errors in medical practice, but touches on a quality that might make a difference. Here is an excerpt from the article.
How then can the element of "human error" be kept to a minimum?
In recounting his story of Mrs Drucker, Dr Goldman touched on a quality which he clearly felt would have made all the difference that day: the humility to trust intuition.
He recalled that in sending her home prematurely he "disregarded a little voice, deep down inside, that was trying to tell me 'Goldman, [that's] not a good idea, don't do this'".
A comment posted by another physician about her own Med School experience echoes this need to listen to that intuitive sense. "I was never warned against my inner voice during my training, just that intuition should be backed by study, sound medical evidence, and experience."
The acknowledgment that an "inner voice" and knowledge are both viable components of health care is significant…

Many PC games are controlled both with the mouse and computer keyboard. Take shooters for example, the mouse is used to look around and perform actions like shooting while the keyboard is used to walk around, jump, reload or access the game menus.
Most gamers have the right hand on the mouse, and the left on the keyboard. Unless they are left-handed, of course as it is often the other way round then.
Most web browsers offer keyboard controls , like scrolling up and down, reloading a page or switching between open tabs.
Most of those controls are however located on the right side of the keyboard. The cursor keys are for instance used to scroll up or down. This means that the user needs to move the left hand to the controls to activate them.
Gamer's Control adds gamer friendly keyboard shortcuts to the Firefox web browser. The standard WASD layout is filled with shortcuts to scroll up or down, and switch to the next or previous tab in the browser. R reloads the page, q and e go back and forth in page history, and c closes the current tab.
Those controls are obviously inactive when forms and text input fields are active; writing this article would be hell otherwise.
w: scroll up
s: scroll down
a: previous tab
d: next tab
shift+w: scroll to top
shift+s: scroll to bottom
space: page down
shift+space: page up
q: history back
e: history forward
r: reload
x: stop loading
f: new tab
c: close tab
shift+c: undo close tab
The developer has promised to add key customizations in one of the next updates. It would be interesting if keys could be switched or disabled, in case they are not needed at all.
Gamer's Control is an add-on for the Firefox web browser. It is compatible with all Firefox versions from 2 to 3, and it is likely that compatibility can be forced in Firefox 4.
Update: The extension is still compatible with all recent versions of the Firefox web browser but it has not been updated since 2010 which means that it may behave erratic in some regards.

You remember it, the little brown box with brassy ornamentation, the vanilla-colored buttons, the black knobs, the lighted glass panel showing great cities of the world all in green: Singapore, Tallinn, Johannesburg. You know, the radio.
I've always mistrusted the visual even as much as I loved it. Seeing was never believing. I never really accepted cartoons, movies, or paintings. Even as a child looking at pictures, I had the feelings of a husband cuckolded: she's beautiful, but she's not telling the truth!
The radio you could believe. Words and sounds were honest. You knew where you had them. (You can cheat with sounds, too. Years later I fabricated for a play in Copenhagen an imitation of the sound of a crackling fire by recording broken glass sliding around in a metal pot. But let us stick to my age of innocence for now.)
For example, Saturday mornings in Oklahoma. I wiled away the time from seven (where my parents were still asleep) to eight (where official pacts had ensured me the right to turn my radio on - quietly) by thumbing through The Book of Knowledge, one volume each month for twenty months, back to A and through yet another time. Pictures, pictures, pictures. But at eight o'clock I was allowed to turn on "Let's Pretend" where I got lost in all kinds of fantasy worlds and then "Big Jon and Sparky" that always started with The Teddy-Bears' Picnic and then went through a myriad of adventures with a doll that I never saw, except through my mind's eye.
At ten years of age I heard baseball from New York as retold by a local radio journalist reading out loud from a ticker tape sent from New York. He backed up his colorful commentary with taped cheering, applause and the occasional boo. I could see Mickey Mantle when his Achilles tendon snapped on the way down first base line. No wonder the number seven still is my favorite to this day.
At twelve I received a little plastic gadget from my uncle, the disc jockey. You could clip it onto any window screen, put the plastic knob in your ear and hear any nearby radio station. I lay awake at night listening - as announced in a heavy Oklahoma drawl - to Johnny-Lee Wills and His Westarn Swing Boyz from the Cimarronnn Ballroom in Telsey, Oklahoma. Take it away, Johnny!! I was there!
We moved to Connecticut when I was fourteen. On Saturday afternoons we heard the Metropolitan Opera matinée and built fantastic machines out of my Erector Set. Since then, I've heard ten times as many operas as I've seen, and I still don't quite know where to look when I actually attend one.
Later I drove around in our little Renault listening to pop music on the radio, dreaming of bobby-soxed cheerleaders and cheek-to-cheek dancing. I even became a disc-jockey on a high school radio program called Hi Teens! That is, until I played Thelonius Monk on the air one Saturday and got fired.

Even later it was WJZZ where the jazz they aired had been especially chosen by Dave Brubeck. And he didn't get fired.
Now - to hop over quite a few years in this chronology - I seldom hear the radio here in Copenhagen. It's all TV or CDs or DvDs. But I still miss just that enticing, unillustrated sound, my brain taking off into its own universe to paint its own pictures on the good, old Tabula Rasa. Sight unseen.

What Even Is The Enneagram?
The Enneagram of Personality (what most people just call the Enneagram) is a psycho-spiritual personal development tool. It is a map of your inner landscape, or even something like the owners manual for your personality. The Enneagram marks out nine basic styles of the human personality, an expression that influenced Dante's The Divine Comedy and Homer's Odyssey. Each personality archetype is determined by its patterned and habitual over or under use of each of the "Three Brains" or centers of a human, intellectual center, emotional center, and instinctual or moving center. (These are sometimes interpreted as head center, heart center, and gut or body center.)
By naming how each Archetype thinks, feels, and acts in habitual and patterned reactivity, the Enneagram aids in nonjudgmental self-observation and in turn opens the door for true transformation. Each one of us leads with one specific type. In psychological terms this type is a set of effective coping mechanisms turned reactive, patterned behavior. Spiritually, our types show us both the path to our truest selves and the nine different ways we block against being receptive to what the Universe (God, Allah, Supreme Being, etc) has for us. As we come to know our patterns and the shadows they protect us from, we learn to see, accept, and love all of who we are, and are given a chance to live a life full of meaning and possibility.
As with all personality systems, understanding the Enneagram can help you understand the people in your life, but the most profound thing it does is give you a deeper understanding of yourself. It may be easy to recognize your behavior, but the Enneagram dives deeper than most personality systems into the unconscious motivations that drive our behaviors. Clearly seeing your own motivation makes it easier to shift and change the behaviors and patterns that are no longer serving you.
So, what's the first step to understanding yourself through the Enneagram? While most people assume they can learn their number through a test, every reputable Enneagram teacher will tell you that the test are ineffective at best, and harmful at their worst. No one can tell you your Enneagram type, not even a test. So, it's up to you to discover through personal self-observation and self reporting which Archetype most resonates with you. Most people discover their number by reading the simple descriptions available in most books or on this website. Some schools of Enneagram teaching like The Narrative Enneagram, though, have developed an interviewing system that provides a space for participants to learn more about themselves and discover their number by having themselves reflected back by a trained professional. Continue reading to learn more about each type, and if you still need help finding yours, send us an email to schedule your own typing interview.
The Nine Types
find who you are really meant to be
Type 1
The Reformer/The Perfectionist/The Improver
1's are driven by the need to be right or good. Their attention is focused on correcting errors and improving themselves, others, or situations. They deal mostly with anger that shows up in their lives as irritation and resentment. 1's are idealists at heart and are willing to put in the work to make things exactly right. They can sometimes come off as harsh or critical to other people, but that is often only because they are dealing with their own overbearing inner critic.
What They See
Type 1's are always striving to be the best. They not only want to do the right thing, they want to be a good person. They seek to correct errors and put things in their proper place. They seek to align themselves with some sort of higher order or ideal and won't rest until they've achieved perfection. 1's critical mind and attention to detail mean they don't settle for less than 100%, and that means these are the people we need building our bridges and doing the calculations to send astronauts into space (and really any time things need to be perfect).
What They Miss
Because 1's are always comparing things to an ideal they hold within themselves, they often miss the ways in which things are working out more perfectly than they anticipated. They have also blinded themselves to their own anger, because let's face it, anger isn't good, and 1's have to be good. Leaving their anger under wraps means that it can seep out as irritation and resentment, which promise to be far more damaging to relationships than anger expressed honestly. The real catch for 1's is that their desire to help others be better often comes off as harsh and critical making the relationships their trying to improve more strained.
Their Work
The work for 1's starts on the inside. Self-acceptance and Mindful Self-Compassion are earth shattering practices for the 1. Being in the Body Triad, though finding enough space to practice these things will be hard with out some physical practice first. Yoga and meditation are great tools for 1's to relax into the serenity that's waiting for them past their judging mind.
Type 2
The Helper/The Giver
2's are driven by the need to be helpful or even indispensable. They are warm and affectionate and are keenly aware of the needs of others. They deal mostly with shame and work to overcome it by becoming helpful and endearing themselves to others. Their attention is habitually focused on other people, and often this causes them to lose sight of themselves and their own needs.
What They See
2's are deeply relational, their attention is always focused on how to make their relationships work and work better. They have an ability to sense the needs and feelings of others and work to meet those needs and tend to those feelings. 2's works tirelessly to support those they love and often know what others need before they do. They use this skill to try and earn the love and acceptance they crave. Naturally caring and empathetic, 2's energy is warm and inviting and they bring a positive feeling wherever they go.
What They Miss
With their focus firmly on other people, 2's often miss out on what they feel/need/want themselves. This leads to an experience of pride, assuming because they don't see any of their needs they must not have them. They can also experience an inflated or deflated senes of self-worth depending on their external approval rating. 2's can lose themselves reaching towards others and even "help themselves to death". In average or unhealthy ranges, they engage in "give-to-get" kinds of helping and end up frustrated that others aren't holding up their end of the deal, causing rifts in the relationships 2's value most.
Their Work
2's work lies in self-inquiry and self-examination. They need to get in touch with their own needs and turn that amazing nurturing energy on themselves for a little while, or better yet, allow someone else to help them and meet their needs for a change. (*gasp!*) This practice of humility brings a healing balance to the important relationships in the 2's life.
Type Three
The Achiever/The Performer/The Chameleon
3's are driven by a need to be successful and achieve the goals they've set for themselves. Their attention is focused on tasks, goals, and their own accomplishments. They most often deal with shame, although they have repressed this feeling in favor of earning their worth through success and achievement. 3's know how to get the job done in the most efficient way possible and take little time to celebrate their own success. They are prone to burn out and, if they aren't careful, they may cut corners to be the first to cross the finish line.
What They See
3's are goal and task oriented, and have an ability to get things done as efficiently as possible. They have a deep desire to be seen as successful. They are image focused, meaning they are tuned in to how they are coming across to others and they want to meet and exceed the expectations of others. 3's are extremely hard workers and know how to read a room and shift themselves accordingly to maximize success. 3's drive and ambition show us the quickest way forward to a new and beautiful future.
What They Miss
Type 3's have lost the message that love is not something that is earned through what you do, but is freely given to you because of who you are. They often miss out on their own personal experience and inner world because of their laser focus on the outer world and trying to be successful. 3's are usually not available for the depth of intimate connection available to them because of their constant drive to move forward. Without these deep, intimate connections, the success that they believe will win them love and affection leaves them feeling empty.
Their Work
The 3's work is to slow down and find the connection, validation, and meaning they're looking for in the world around them inside themselves. 3's may never rid themselves of their goal orientation, but it can be helpful to focus on setting goals that have a benefit for more than just themselves and bring more meaning and value into their lives.

Type 4
The Romantic/The Individualist/The Artist
4's are driven by the need to be special or unique. Their attention is habitually drawn to what is missing in any given situation. They are deep and often moody, keenly aware of their own emotional state. They deal mostly with sadness and shame, and are comfortable sitting with their own melancholy. 4's are creative and expressive, often talented artists, and they bring their own aesthetic into everything they do. They have trouble being present to what good things they have as they often lose themselves in nostalgia.
What They See
4's are driven to be authentic. They have a flair for the dramatic that brings an energy and intensity to everything they do. They are keenly aware of what's missing in any situation and they experience a deep sense of longing. Often 4's are creative and stylish and like to be seen as such, but aren't overly concerned with being "liked" by others. They are searching for depth and meaning in their work and relationships, and can't stand to be stuck on the surface of things. 4's have no trouble plumbing the depths of their darker emotions and have an innate ability to help others do the same.
What They Miss
In always seeing what's missing in any given situation, 4's can often miss what's actually there. They, like their 1 counterparts, have set an internalized ideal as something to be achieved and experience extreme disappointment when life doesn't live up. 4's experience their emotions as the core of who they are, and can easily be swept away by the mood of the moment. Often 4's will shy away from the happier and lighter side of the emotional spectrum because it doesn't feel real enough, this leads them to wallow in their melancholy.
Their Work
4's work is to develop a more grounded presence, this is often achieved through getting more in touch with their bodies. As 4's learn to identify less with their emotions and more as a holistic being, they experience a sense of equanimity. They're emotions may still be moving and shaking on the inside, but 4's won't be taken for the ride.

Type 5
The Investigator/The Observer
5's are driven by a need to know or understand. They are focused on gaining knowledge and information. 5's prefer to sit on the sidelines and observe from a distance before engaging in new activities or situations. They deal mostly with fear and anxiety, generally relating to feeling incompetent, unprepared, or depleted. 5's have strong boundaries and are particularly averse to emotional intrusion. They are often extremely knowledgeable and come into relationships without an agenda. 5's have trouble taking the information they've gathered and taking necessary action around it.
What They See
Well, what don't they see? 5's tend to stand on the outskirts of things and observe from a distance, and they are *very* observant. They have a strong desire to gain knowledge and expertise, and seek to "corner the market" on information about the topics they love. 5's love systems and organizing information so they are always prepared for any intellectual gun-fight that might ensue. They are deeply concerned with their own personal autonomy and seek to be as self-sufficient as possible. 5's embody the hermit archetype, storing up wisdom and knowledge, and at their best they are generous with them and can put them into action.
What They Miss
5's focus all of their attention and energy into their heads, often leaving their hearts and bodies sorely neglected. In their quest for deep understanding they can become emotionally detached and lose connection with the world around them. While their need for autonomy keeps them individuated, it also isolates them. Their continued focus on gaining more and better information runs on a loop and prevents them from taking effective action with the knowledge they have. It's been said that knowledge applied is wisdom, and 5's thirst for wisdom, but they miss out by not applying the knowledge they already have and continually searching for more.
Their Work
5's spend their time in their heads, but they need to journey down into their hearts if they want to have the meaningful emotional experiences that make life worth living. That's not an easy task for a 5, though. Instead of going head-first (ha! You see what I did there?) into the heart, bodywork is an amazing way for 5's to become more comfortable in their own skin and therefore more comfortable with their emotions. Yoga is very popular among 5's because of it's philosophical connections. They just need to make sure they don't become the yogi stuck in the cave.

Type 6
The Loyal Skeptic/Devil's Advocate/The Buddy
6's are driven by a need to be secure. Their focus is on outer authority and they can either submit themselves to it wholeheartedly or push against it in rebellion. They have questioning minds and often seek out second, third, and fourth opinions. They deal mostly with fear and anxiety, having lost touch with their own inner guidance. 6's are loyal and devoted friends who are always prepared in a crisis. They have trouble with overthinking and can getting caught up in worst case scenario planning.
What they see
6's have a finely tuned eye for seeing what could go wrong in situations. They can anticipate problems and find solutions. 6's are driven to always be prepared for any contingency. They are well equipped to both develop and challenge ideas, structures, and systems. They desire to be deeply loyal to worthy people and groups. 6's at their best are the glue that hold organizations together and can also be effective leaders.
What They Miss
6's have lost touch with their own inner guidance and authority, and because of this they seek out guidance and authority from others. This creates a lack of faith or trust in themselves that they project out on to other people. This leads to the 6's pushing and testing their relationships, be it at home, work, or with friends, and can often create a self-fulfilling prophesy. The 6's questioning mind is a wonderful asset when used appropriately, but when it's running the show it can undermine the relationships that 6's hold dear.
Their Work
6's have to tap into their own inner knowing and guidance. While this proves to be their greatest struggle, once they learn to tune in, listen, and follow their inner voice, everything about their life changes for the better. Before that giant goal is achieved, though, it can be helpful for the 6 to practice making a decision even if they don't have all the answers and moving forward without the self-doubt and second guessing.
Type 7
The Enthusiast/The Epicure/The Adventurer
7's are driven by a need to avoid pain or discomfort. Their attention is focused on possibilities and positive future planning. They deal mostly with fear and anxiety, but they distract themselves from it through their many fun and enjoyable experiences. 7's strongly dislike feeling trapped or limited in any way. They are fun and energetic and are masters of finding silver linings. They can miss out on meaningful experiences in life because of their drive to not feel pain either physically or emotionally.
What They See
7's are all about living an enjoyable life. They keep their eyes on the future and like to keep their options open. They have an uncanny ability to see the possibilities and excellent potential in all things. They are incredible planners and want to always stay ahead of the game. 7's are incredibly high energy and are always on the lookout for the next big adventure, sometimes even before the adventure they're on is over. 7's have an almost magical ability to see the positive in even the darkest of situations, and their energy and excitement for life bring joy wherever they go.
What They Miss
With their energy always moving forward, 7's have maybe the hardest time being present of any of the types. If they overuse their gift of finding silver linings, they can come off as shallow, aloof, and emotionally distant, making it hard to sustain the more meaningful intimate relationships that emotional presence facilitates. In their search for more (of basically everything) they can miss out on the beauty and value of what's in front of them, ensuring that they always feel that looming sense of lack and limitation. Their ever-positive outlook leaves little room for the darker or heavier side of the emotional spectrum, which can keep them from developing into emotional maturity.
Their Work
7's have to learn and experience that sadness won't kill them. Neither will pain, discomfort, or any of a long list of less than happy emotions. To do this, though, they need to slow down and funnel some of their energy into their heart space. This is difficult without consistent, disciplined practice, and since those are not the 7's strong suit, finding a way to make their practices like yoga and meditation fun and enjoyable. Often having someone to keep them accountable makes the largest impact.
Type 8
The Challenger/The Protector/The Boss
8's are driving by a need to be strong. Their attention is habitually turned to their own personal empowerment and expressing their power in the world. They deal most with anger and are often seen as aggressive or overbearing. They are deeply intolerant of injustice and are defenders of the underdogs. 8's are powerful, charismatic, and natural leaders. They can be emotionally insensitive to others and are often out of touch with their own softer emotions.
What They See
8's are tuned into power, who has it, who doesn't, and how it's being used. They have a an eye out for the underdogs and have no tolerance for injustice. 8's preoccupied by their own personal empowerment, and then seek to empower others. They are deeply motivated to have an impact on their surroundings and are always ready to take action, even it it means engaging in conflict. 8's are always ready for a battle, but they're going to make damn sure it's a level playing field for everyone involved. At their best 8's are magnanimous and heroic leaders who are willing to sacrifice themselves for those they love.
What They Miss
With their focus so keyed into their own personal power, 8's tend to shy away from acknowledging any of their softer, more vulnerable parts. This often means the 8's are out of tune with their own emotional landscapes and therefore have difficulty dealing with other's emotions as well. This lack of emotional connection is the 8's biggest challenge. If 8's aren't careful, they end up leading groups to suppress the feeling that they can't *truly* be apart of them. This is also where the greatest miscommunication happens, 8's see themselves as loving and dutiful while the ones they love can see them as demanding, controlling, or bullying.
Their Work
8's need to slow down enough to get in touch with their own emotions, and make the time and space to be present to other's emotions as well. Rigorous but mindful exercise is often necessary to burn off excess bodily energy before they can move into the stillness and softening they desperately need.
Type 9
The Peacemakers/The Mediators
9's are driven by a need to be peaceful and harmonious. Their attention is often diffused, and they can have trouble focusing on any one particular thing. They are brilliant mediators and have a gift for seeing and understanding both sides to any argument. They struggle most with anger, forgetting it for months or even years at a time only to have it resurface in an explosive way later. 9's are kind, gentle, and easygoing. They often have trouble speaking up for their own needs and desires, keeping quiet in favor of "keeping the peace."
What They See
9's, having their place at the tip-top of the Enneagram, have a knack for seeing all sides of an issue. They are driven to create and experience peace and harmony in their lives and in the world around them. 9's are gifted therapists and mediators because of their ability to create space for other people and make them feel seen, heard, and validated. They have a belief that all conflict can be resolved. Honestly, if it weren't for the 9's in the world right now, we probably would have all died in a nuclear holocaust already.
What They Miss
With their keen focus on keeping the peace, 9's often miss out on their own thoughts, feelings, and desires for fear of creating or experiencing conflict. 9's avoid conflict like the plague, and since conflict is an inevitable part of life on this planet, they will often remove themselves, either emotionally or physically, from their own life. In their haste to smooth over the conflict they do experience they can short-change themselves and those they love by not letting the real desires and emotions of the situation surface.
Their Work
The real work for 9's is first getting in touch with what they really want and need. This often looks like getting in touch with their long-dormant anger. Getting comfortable with anger is a slow and scary process for 9's, but once they make friends with their anger, they can channel it to fuel real and meaningful engagement in their own lives. 9's need to know what they want, and stand up for it in order to know the true meaning of harmony.
