Victory Party Address: Catherine Fleming
Thank you for nominating me to do this! I appreciate your trust in me, it really means a lot! When I was told I had to do this speech, I immediately googled "how do I write a commencement speech" and all sources told me to start it off with a quote, so here's my opening quote:
"It was the best of times! It was the worst of times!" -It's funny because I was going for highbrow Charles Dickens, but when I was practicing in front of my students yesterday they told me that this quote was not Charles Dickens, but instead that I got it from Mac and Devin Go to High School starring Wiz Khalifa and Snoop Dogg – but nevertheless, "It was the best of times! It was the worst of times!"
I had the pleasure of teaching Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie during the third quarter of this year, and in her speech "The Danger of A Single Story" she said something that stuck with me. She said "the single story creates stereotypes, and the problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete, they make one story become the only story." And it's true. There is danger in promoting a single story. Because there is ALWAYS more than one story. I asked some of my classmates for words that described this residency year, and these are some of the responses I got:
- Rollercoaster of emotions
- Humbling
- Exhausting
- Uncomfortable
- Trying
- Hectic
- Nonstop
- A battle
- And "basically always being that messy version of Frodo where Sam has to carry him up Mount Doom so the world doesn't end"
It's been a rough one y'all. While it was the best of times…for some of us, it was the worst of times. Not all of us had idyllic years. Some of us had negative experiences at our internships, not all of us had the best experiences with our coaches, not all of us felt supported holistically, some of us experienced tragedy. Some of us felt unsupported by our own classmates, and for that I am so so sorry. If you have ever felt that any of us have made assumptions about you or the content of your character, I am so, so sorry. Also not all of us were physically well.
I need to take this moment to shout out Trey Weise. Trey Weise was diagnosed with cancer in the Fall. He endured multiple rounds of chemotherapy, he had to miss out on some classes, and he had to move to a new internship site post remission, and he's still here. That's right, Trey Weise was diagnosed with cancer and still completed this residency year. —I'm so proud of you, and I'm so happy you're here with us.
For those of us who have not had an idyllic year, I hope you know that you should feel all the more accomplished to be seated here today, to struggle for an entire year, and to triumph, you've done well.
So back to those responses I got from my classmates when I asked them to describe this residency year. Another one I got was "Dense- lots to do, lots to learn, and lots of people in it with you." Even if some of us had negative experiences in certain aspects of this year…we had each other. I guess that name game and the emphasis on community must have paid off because we have our own little 2019 community. Now, we don't all have 60+ best friends, but I can guarantee you that all of us have made at least one dear, dear friend through this experience.
Thank you David, for getting this whole MTR thing going and for providing us with the opportunity to enter our own classrooms in August effectively serving the kids here in Memphis. Thank you Erin and Yolunda for being our residency directors and looking out for us. Thank you to the coaches for all the feedback (even if the immense number of comment notifications stressed us out from time to time). Thank you to our professors for teaching us. Thank you to the rest of the staff for being there for us and supporting us. Also, shout out to Ms. Regina for keeping us looking good, and for celebrating our successes with us!
I started with a quote and now I'm ending with an excerpt. From who other than James Baldwin. He delivered this speech to a conference full of school teachers on October 16, 1963 in New York City, as "The Negro Child – His Self-Image". It's so incredibly timeless, which is one of many reasons why I love Baldwin:
"Let's begin by saying that we are living through a very dangerous time. Everyone in this room is in one way or another aware of that. We are in a revolutionary situation, no matter how unpopular that word has become in this country. The society in which we live is desperately menaced, not by Khrushchev, but from within. To any citizen of this country who figures himself as responsible – and particularly those of you who deal with the minds and hearts of young people – must be prepared to "go for broke." Or to put it another way, you must understand that in the attempt to correct so many generations of bad faith and cruelty, when it is operating not only in the classroom but in society, you will meet the most fantastic, the most brutal, and the most determined resistance. There is no point in pretending that this won't happen.
It would seem to me that when a child is born, if I'm the child's parent, it is my obligation and my high duty to civilize that child. Man is a social animal. He cannot exist without a society. A society, in turn, depends on certain things which everyone within that society takes for granted. Now the crucial paradox which confronts us here is that the whole process of education occurs within a social framework and is designed to perpetuate the aims of society. Thus, for example, the boys and girls who were born during the era of the Third Reich, when educated to the purposes of the Third Reich, became barbarians. The paradox of education is precisely this – that as one begins to become conscious one begins to examine the society in which he is being educated. The purpose of education, finally, is to create in a person the ability to look at the world for himself, to make his own decisions, to say to himself this is black or this is white, to decide for himself whether there is a God in heaven or not.
To ask questions of the universe, and then learn to live with those questions, is the way he achieves his own identity. But no society is really anxious to have that kind of person around. What societies really, ideally, want is a citizenry which will simply obey the rules of society. If a society succeeds in this, that society is about to perish. The obligation of anyone who thinks of himself as responsible is to examine society and try to change it and to fight it – at no matter what risk. This is the only hope society has. This is the only way societies change."
We did it y'all.

It's not possible to add 2FA to MyMonero because of the client-side nature of MyMonero. Doing so would make us custodial, which is something we don't want.
If we added some form of MFA we'd need to be custodial (hold the keys), which we want to avoid. Workarounds, like holding an encrypted version of the keys, are still open to the same non-recovery issues, so then we may as well just not.
The issue is key recovery when someone loses access to their 2FA device. For that we have to store the key unencumbered. That said, we're busy playing around with an idea based on multisig, where the user has one key, their 2FA device has one key, and we have a backup key. If they lose access to their 2FA device we can help them move the funds to a new account, without being custodial of their keys. We also can't steal their funds, since we only have 1 of the 2 keys we'd need.

What our client says
Paru was awesome. I'm very picky and have been driving over 30 miles for years.
It's amazing to finally have someone in the NW suburbs that does as great of a job and not have to go to the city. Salon is clean, economical and she's so friendly and listens to you. Highly recommend
I bought the groupon for the eyebrow threading I was not disappointed.
I called literally ten minutes before I wanted to go and they were able to take me. They did great with my eyebrows. I still have a groupon so I can go two more times and I hope to have the same outcomes!
Ever since I moved to Schaumburg I was in search for the perfect eyebrow threading place.
I gave beauty by design a shot and I was amazed with the result. The ladies here are a pro in threading. Very well done without any pain or marks and for the price of $6. I highly recommend this place.
Love this place for eyebrow threading and even waxing! They remember me every time I come in and are super nice.
I always get told my eyebrows look good after getting them threaded here. Their prices super cheap, especially when comparing price and quality to other threading places.
Oved this place. I called ahead to see if I needed an appointment, and was greeted with a cheerful woman who gave me very precise driving directions and says walk-ins are welcome.
She asked me what kind of shape I wanted and took some time to get to know me when I walked in. The actual threading was quick (my entire visit was only 15 minutes) and nearly pain-free, and she did such a good job that I actually got compliments at work the next day! $6 for such a pleasant, convenient experience? yes!
I am new to the area and have been looking for an eyebrow place.
i saw a few positive reviews on yelp so i decided to try them out. i was very pleased with the price. I got my eyebrows threaded and tinted, total $14. Not only was the price great, i was also very pleased with the way they turned out. my eyebrows look fab, and she made sure to work with me to get the perfect color that would work with my hair and skin tone. i would recommended this hidden treasure to any of my friends and i will most defiantly be going back.
Great place to get eyebrow threading done.
I find that it difficult to find someone who listens to what I want. Ms. Paru listened to what I wanted and told me she would fix the damage that was done to my eyebrows by another place I had been to. She was very nice and did a great job. The prices are very reasonable.
Since moving to Schaumburg I needed a place to get my eyebrows done (I normally go to Beauty Concepts in Westmont but that's a little far to travel just for eyebrows).
So I decided to give this place a try and I must say I have been satisfied each time I've gone. There is hardly ever a wait and the price CAN NOT be beat ($6 for eyebrow threading....the place inside of Woodfield Mall charges I believe $10-$15....ridiculous) and I and truly pleased with the outcome.

Council denies letting flowers die under loyalist murderer poster
A council has denied deliberately leaving plants hanging under a banner glorifying a UVF killer to die.
The wilted flowers were replaced by Mid Ulster District Council after complaints from residents in Moygashel.
"It would seem that some of the council's flowerpot men do not approve of certain loyalist signs in the village and have purposefully decided not to water this hanging basket," one resident told the Tyrone Courier.
"Questions must be asked of Mid Ulster District Council about why this has been allowed to happen and a full explanation given."
The banner features an image of Wesley Somerville, the UVF crest and an image of a the terror group's flag.
It also bears an image of two masked gunmen with the words 'Mid Ulster Brigade' .
Somerville died alongside fellow UVF man Harris Boyle when a bomb they were planting on the Miami Showband's tour bus exploded prematurely near Banbridge in 1975. Three musicians were shot dead following the explosion.
The disgruntled resident accused the council of deliberately discriminating against unionist communities by any means possible.
They also alleged that when a council worker was approached about the withered flowers, they muttered and drove off.
"This basket must be replaced and the individual responsible for watering should not be permitted to decide which plants to water," they added. "This council is making certain unionist communities believe that this is now a cold house for Protestants."
Somerville is also suspected of being part of a gang that shot dead Patrick Falls (45) in Aughamullan, near Coalisland, in 1974.
Earlier this year, Mr Falls' sons, Brian and Aidan, branded the erection of the banner, which has caused "distress" to their family, a hate crime and criticised police for failing to act.
Wesley's brother, John James Somerville, was sentenced to life in prison for his part in the murder of Patrick Falls.
A council spokesperson dismissed the allegations as unfounded.
"The location of this particular hanging basket, outside a shop, has caused access issues during the weekly watering cycle because of parked cars and this has resulted in limited watering," they said.
"While we have replaced the basket in the interim, its location and maintenance issues will be reviewed ahead of the 2020 season to avoid a repeat occurrence."

Or, the Two Minute Workout. Sounds hokey, I know, but while in a train on the way home from work last Monday (June 6), I've read in the free daily Melbourne-based newspaper MX a short article titled Get fit in two minutes. It immediately got my attention.
Here is a quote from the MX newspaper article:
Only two minutes of intense exercise a day does as much to improve fitness levels as two hours of moderate training, according to research.
The article suggests that the workout is aimed at average healthy men and women between the ages of 25 and 35. Given that, here is the workout, also called the "Sprint Interval Training": You need a stationary bike and you must cycle as fast and as hard as you can for 30 seconds. This is followed by four minutes of rest. Then repeat the process three more times so that in the end, you would've cycled a total of two minutes for a total session time of 14 minutes (by my calculations).
This is certainly welcome news for me as I definitely need to exercise but don't want to spare a lot of time to do so. Right now, I have a 45-minute workout riding our stationary bike while playing a game on the PS2. I play a game at the same time to take my mind of the fact that I'm exercising.
I looked up the workout on the web to get more details about it before I get myself into it. Here are some links that turned up the same story:
- Fitness in 6 Minutes a Week from the WebMD Health website.
- Six minutes of exercise a week 'is as good as six hours' from the Telegragh UK website.
If you intend to do this workout though, be sure to read the WebMD article at least so that you will get a better idea of its intricacies first.
And be warned, according to the same article, "If you're going to try this technique, remember that it's important to consult your doctor before beginning any kind of exercise."

A triad of female warriors bound
together as a family, committed in union to one another and to the two
males who are staying at home in their village. This is the tale of
their adventures; their training and bonding while becoming the
personal staff of the Empress of their Motherland.
My musings traveled to the
long distant past, when it was unheard of for a couple to choose males
together. Males were usually selected after the joined pair won their
places as warriors. Once the joining had occurred, the couple would
live, love, and breed together as a family. It was rare, in this day,
that young women chose the path of the warrior. Theirs was a hard life.
They would have one house together here in the community and would
travel the country as directed by the leader of the warriors. The
warriors had common houses in all the large cities in the Motherland,
but their males would stay home and tend to their herds, raise their
male children, and the female children would be placed in homes with
their mother's families until they reached the age of five, and then be
placed in foster homes by the joined couple.

What is Static Electricity? Well Google tells us it is "a stationary electric charge, typically produced by friction, that causes sparks or crackling or the attraction of dust or hair."
To the rest of us, it is the constant annoyance that plagues our winter season. It causes clothes in the dryer to stick together and zap you when you try to separate them. It makes you hesitate before you touch the light switch because you know it's going to zap you, or zaps you unexpectedly when you try to hug or kiss a loved one. Scientifically, static electricity is an imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material. The charge remains until it is able to move away by means of an electric current or electrical discharge.
The best, most effective, and easiest way to reduce static in your home is to get a Whole Home Humidifier.
To stop the transfer of charge you could walk around your house in leather sole shoes instead of rubber, but this obviously doesn't work outside of your home. You could wear less conductive clothing. For example wool, polyester and silk clothes are a big no-no when trying to avoid static. You could even spray your clothes and furniture with antistatic sprays (again, and again and again). The most effective way to reduce static is to increase your home's humidity. The best, most effective and easiest way to do that is to get a whole home Humidifier.

Why Motor Control Makes You Stronger
"Mo·tor con·trol" (mō'tŏr kŏn-trōl') is "the process of initiating, directing, and grading purposeful voluntary movement." From: Medical Dictionary for the Health Professions and Nursing © Farlex 2012. In lay terms, motor control is your mind and nervous system intentionally telling your muscles what to do. The better you can control your body's actions, the stronger and faster you can be. We can further describe "motor control" as the product of four sub-elements:
Coordination – The ability to combine several distinct movement patterns into a singular distinct movement.
Agility – The ability to minimize transition time from one movement pattern to another.
Accuracy – The ability to control movement in a given direction or at a given intensity.
Balance – The ability to control the placement of the body's center of gravity in relation to its support base.
Notice that Coordination, Agility & Accuracy all address what happens with the body while it is in motion. Balance can be either holding still or moving, but has a dramatic impact whenever the body is moving. If you lose your balance, it tells us that you did not have optimal control of the movement pattern you were executing.
CrossFit put motor control back into the workout because the "fitness" you acquire in isolation will not help you do the complex movements that real life requires.
The workout machines in most gyms are specifically designed to eliminate motor control as an element of your workout. You sit on the machine and isolate whatever muscles you are trying to work. CrossFit put motor control back into the workout because the "fitness" you acquire in isolation will not help you do the complex movements that real life requires. You can get really strong biceps doing preacher curls, but they can't move your sofa all by themselves.
Related: What Do You DO at a CrossFit Box?
Learning new movement patterns, how to combine movement patterns, establish and maintain balance while moving, and control the force applied during a movement are all challenged daily in CrossFit workouts. Whether heavy lifting or a bodyweight "met-con", CrossFit challenges you to move your body systematically and efficiently. CrossFit does this by using movements that are what we call "functional" – movements that require us to move at multiple joints, with each applying the right amounts of force, in the right directions, at the right moments to complete the movement as a whole.

Bristol Academy 4 (Weir 7,46, Murray 28, Pinto 78) Liverpool 2 (Short og 23, Dowie 86)
Bristol Academy ended their stay in FA WSL 1 with an impressive 4-2 victory against Liverpool at Stoke Gifford Stadium.
The Vixens took the lead with the game's first meaningful attempt on goal, as Caroline Weir fired home Loren Dykes' cross from close range after just seven minutes.
After a slow start Liverpool found themselves level midway through the first half when Lucy Staniforth's whipped cross was headed into her own net by Hannah Short. Despite relegation being confirmed last week, Bristol continued to press and after a spell of pressure Christie Murray restored the Vixens lead with a well sculpted lob over Danielle Gibbons.
Willie Kirk's side confidently took their advantage into the break and wasted no time extending their lead after half time. Just 90 seconds after the restart it was 3-1 when Sophie Ingle's inch perfect cross was confidently slotted past Gibbons by Weir for her second of the night.
Liverpool dominated the remainder of the game but fell further behind after 79 minutes when Tatiana Pinto fired home, before Natasha Dowie stabbed in a late consolation which failed to stop Bristol ending an otherwise disappointing season in style.
Bristol Academy: Mary Earps, Loren Dykes, Hayley Ladd, Hannah Short, Frankie Brown, Tatiana Pinto (sub Nadia Lawrence 84mins), Georgia Evans (sub Emma Tustin 90mins), Sophie Ingle, Caroline Weir, Christie Murray (sub Evdokia Popadinova 88mins), Angharad James. Subs not used: Hannah Reid, Sharla Passariello, Gabby Bird, Katie Jones.
Liverpool: Danielle Gibbons, Martha Harris, Gemma Bonner, Satara Murray, Maz Pacheco (sub Ashley Hodson 45mins), Ingrid Ryland, Lucy Staniforth, Katrin Omarsdottir (sub Asisat Oshoala 62mins), Rosie White, Katie Zelem, Natasha Dowie. Subs not used: Rachel Darbyshire, Mollie Green, Shannon Beckwith, Hannah Dale.
Attendance: 721

Unfortunately, Zoo Tycoon 2 fails to reach a level of "fun factor" greatness that surpasses the first Zoo Tycoon. Sure, the eye candy is a lot better and there are more options, but the gameplay hasn't really improved. In fact, the user interface, particularly when first loading the game, has become more confusing and less user friendly. In addition, there is no music during your gameplay; only sub-par sound effects that can sometimes get annoying.
What was Microsoft thinking?
There are aspects to Zoo Tycoon 2 that are absolutely brilliant. I love that I can assume the role of a worker or zookeeper and do chores that I would usually hire staff to do. That is awesome. I like that animals aren't so picky about their environment as they were in Zoo Tycoon. In fact, Zoo Tycoon 2 revolutionizes the ability to create the right environment through its environment paintbrush called Biome. It quickly and easily paints the new environment right into the area you select.
Another nice feature is that you can work in pause mode. I like being able to have full control of the options when the game is paused.
But perhaps the biggest innovation in the game is for you to literally assume the role of a worker or guest and walk around your park seeing everything from the eyes of those visiting your park. While some other games do this, Zoo Tycoon 2 takes it one step further by allow you to "work" while in this mode. You can empty trash cans, replenish an animal's food or water, open gates, groom animals, and even scoop up... uh... poop.
Zoo Tycoon 2 is definitely on the right track, but somewhere in the race it stumbled. For example, why are the user interface and camera controls for Sea World Tycoon 2 much easier to use than those of Zoo Tycoon 2? Zoo Tycoon 2 is a much bigger game with many more options. Why does Sea World Tycoon 2 have music during gameplay, but not Zoo Tycoon 2? Have you ever watched a movie without music? It's not as engaging. Zoo Tycoon 2 should not be comparable to Sea World Tycoon 2 because it has much more programmers, options, and depth, not too mention a much bigger budget. Yet I find myself enjoying the gameplay of Sea World Tycoon more, while yearning for the options nad features of Zoo Tycoon 2.
Some of the campaigns of Zoo Tycoon 2 also have fundamental problems. For example, in the Wolverton Animal Rehabilitation Center campaign you are tasked to heal the ill animals and make them happy. No problem. I got both of those goals checked off in 10 minutes of gameplay. Then it added a new goal - make your zoo into a three star zoo. So I spent 50 minutes improving my zoo. Guest love it, the animals are more happy than ever, and the staff are doing an amazing job. Suddenly, my American Beaver dies "from old age." Immediately a window pops up saying "Scenario Failed! An animal has died! Healthy animals are an essential part of a successful zoo. Due to this unfortunate circumstance, it is impossible for you to achieve your goals."
The animal died of old age, not neglect! That happens not only in zoos, but in the wild too (just in case Microsoft game developers didn't know). The scenario didn't adjust for that factor, thus any animal in your zoo dying from old age will automatically fail you in the scenario, despite you already having completed the objectives.
It's little (and big) things like this that are annoying during gameplay. The developers didn't make building a zoo easy this time around (except for the terrain editor). Even a simple task like rotating and placing an object becomes a chore because of the game's multiangular rotating system. And some buildings have an option to move them (without selling them), while others don't. All buildings and objects should have this option.
Somewhere along the line, the developers thought it would be a good idea to remove the gamer's ability to set prices. No longer can you set your own price for entrance into the park, food sales, item sales. Nope. Zoo Tycoon 2 gives you three buttons - Low, Moderate, High. Hardly intuitive.
Perhaps most sad about Zoo Tycoon 2 is that it doesn't incorporate some of the truly fun aspects of bigger zoos. For example, the San Diego Zoo has a sky ride, taking you high above their zoo. They have a miniature train you can ride. The San Diego Wild Animal Park has a tram that goes through its different lands. These are fun and intuitive and missing from Zoo Tycoon 2. Innovation of new guest interactive features in Zoo Tycoon 2 consists of stuff like a "donation box" that you place by your exhibit for guests to put money in. How many zoos do you see those at?
Zoo Tycoon still has a ways to go to hit the same fun factor as say... Roller Coaster Tycoon... or to have an outstanding user interface and camera controls as say... Sea World Tycoon 2. That's the bad news. The good news is that they can virtually only get better from here.
I give Zoo Tycoon 2 an 8 rating because it is highly interactive (with some amazing features like first person "worker" mode) and huge in scope despite leaving a lot to be desired as far as gameplay and the user interface go.

The UFC has announced their full lineup for the December 27th event, dubbed "The Ultimate 2008." This card is stacked from top to bottom, with two titles on the line and many other explosive matchups.
Rampage Jackson faces Wanderlei Silva in what promises to be an MMA fan's dream fight. As many may remember, Silva won the first two times these gladiators faced off; both times in the Pride Fighting Championships and both times in impressive knockout fashion.
Wanderlei would like to put together a win streak and build upon his last victory, while Rampage looks to avenge his two previous losses to Silva, and hopefully get back in line for a shot at the UFC LHW Title. As most know, there is genuinely bad blood between these two so look for sparks to fly.

When Robyn Young first called fellow Pacific Hills mum Michelle to ask whether Michelle's son BJ would like to come over for a playdate with her son Josh, she never expected the response she received.
BJ had made it to Year 5 without ever being invited over for a play or party. He'd been to class parties but that had been the extent of his out of school interactions. The unexpected call from Robyn had moved Michelle to tears. The thought that another family wanted to love her son and open their house to him, had deeply impacted her.
One in every 600 babies is born with an extra chromosome resulting in Down Syndrome. BJ is that one in 600, and this is probably why he had never been invited for a play or party. People just aren't sure they'd know how to deal with children like BJ.
Before New Hope School was established, BJ attended Pacific Hills with his siblings. Michelle explains, "BJ always loved Pacific Hills and his class and teachers had been beautiful. Being in a mainstream class really helped his speech and social skills. I know the teachers would have had to work a lot harder to manage his short attention span! BJ learns differently, slower and requires lots of repetition. He learns visually and by doing not listening. When BJ started prep, I remember he hi-fived at least fifty people on our way to the car each day!"
Since starting at New Hope School, BJ has flourished into a very social 15-year-old who likes to sing, dance and act. He also loves to throw a ball around with friends from Pacific Hills who come and visit some lunch times. He's now enjoying horse-riding every Tuesday too!
Five years have passed since that first phone call and Josh and BJ remain friends. They continue to visit each other during the school holidays, BJ's had Josh over and they've gone to the movies together.
Michelle says, "I like how Josh treats BJ as normal, all the kids in his class did. My husband Andrew and I go on the school camps and for the Year 5 camp, there was a bonfire. I was watching BJ and another student Adrienne Bloom interact with one another. It filled me with joy seeing their conversation flow. BJ will talk a bit at home but in public he will often sign or thumbs up but will not talk. With Adrienne, their conversation was amazing."
Like so many other Children with Down Syndrome, BJ is loving and caring. "I remember we were on the train one day going into the city and there were a group of five elderly people. One man in the group had a hat on and a walking cane and he looked really grumpy. I realised that he was blind and was maybe having an off day. BJ sensed something was wrong so he went up to him, took his hat and within a minute or two, they were laughing and talking. BJ knows when somebody is sad. He will go and sit with that person and hold their hand. He just makes you feel better and he does that everywhere he goes".
Michelle finishes up by saying: "When I think of superheroes, I think that BJ is super love. God is love and BJ shows love to everyone. He loves people and he doesn't get angry or hold any grudges if people hurt him."
All the people named in this story are "Hope Heroes". Who knew the power one simple phone call would have on the life of someone else and their family? Yet this is what love looks like in a Hope context. Turns out that embracing one another in friendship is a beautiful representation of God's kingdom on earth.

An annual study recently conducted by the Family Medicine journal showed that publicly funded medical schools are not producing much-needed family physicians.
About 1 in 5 physician's office visits in the U.S. annually are to family physicians - which translates to about 214 million visits per year. That is 48 percent higher than the next most-visited specialty.
The study, titled "Entry of U.S. Medical School Graduates Into Family Medicine Residencies: 2014–2015," revealed that of the 3,595 medical students who entered residency training for family medicine, less than half went on to graduate from medical school in the United States.
Additionally, the study found that 62 percent of schools that offer MD degrees were publicly funded, and that twice the number of family medicine graduates came from these schools as from private colleges and universities. The 11 medical schools that didn't offer family medicine still saw 26 students move into the field.
Of all the nation's public and private medical schools, 21 of them produced 20 or more graduates who chose to go into family medicine.
A higher percentage of family medicine students originated at doctor of osteopathy schools.
"The unique position of the U.S. medical schools as the gateway to the physician workforce, and considerable public financing, demands that schools be held accountable to the needs of the population," Dr. Stanley Kozakowski, the author of the study, wrote. "Creating a primary care workforce to address those needs must be an important part of their compact with society. This annual report highlights the failure of the US MD-granting schools to deliver on a key measure of social responsibility that is to deliver a primary care workforce that meets the needs of the population."

What to plant with saffron crocus
firstname.lastname@example.com added on October 22, 2013 | Answered
They are dormant in summer time so the bed will be just dirt in the summer. I need companion plants.
Answered on October 22, 2013
I would suggest appropriate annuals and perennials for the location that will not crowd or overtake the crocus. Your choices will depend on your USDA hardiness zone, size, colors, sun, soil type and many other variables.

Closing month, Just right Samaritans from Los Angeles noticed a kitten seeking to move the road in a high-traffic residential space. She was once very frail.
They safely stopped the site visitors to protected the kitty.
TNR Now
They reached out to their native TNR (trap-neuter-return) rescue, TNR Now, for lend a hand. "The kitten was once malnourished… slightly the dimensions of my already small palm. She was once all bones beneath all that fuzz," TNR Now wrote.
Her eyes have been crusted close because of a serious higher respiration an infection. She was once so hungry that she scarfed down the entire meals she was once given to make up for the misplaced foods. After you have her eyes and face wiped clean and handled with drugs, the kitten may in spite of everything relaxation that night time.
In the meantime, Nikki Martinez, a rescuer primarily based in Las Vegas, was once contacted in regards to the kitten wanting an skilled foster. "I do know that shelters and rescues across the nation are overflowing with cats and kittens, and Los Angeles specifically has an enormous want for foster houses. Each foster and rescue I knew of for my part was once complete," Nikki advised Love Meow.
TNR Now
"I took place to be visiting Southern California on the time and requested a chum if she may shipping to the place I used to be staying. She did, and I used to be in a position to take her house with me to foster her."
She named her Sugarbug. The kitten was once very small and vulnerable, weighing simplest 0.6 kilos (272 grams). Nikki right away began syringe-feeding her and treating her an infection with antibiotics. "I fed her a mix of kitten meals made into 'soup' to stay her hydrated, and supplemented her with dietary gel formulated for kittens."

All through the primary few days, the kitten simply sought after to sleep. Her little frame was once exhausted from dwelling in the street for see you later with out meals. Nikki gave her quite a few blank and comfortable blankets to stay her heat and relaxed.
With around-the-clock feedings and widespread face washing and eye meds, Sugarbug started to achieve extra power.
Watch her complete rescue adventure on this video:

"She was once a champ about having her face wiped clean and having her eye meds installed. Having a blank face and blank bedding is necessary to lend a hand her battle off her an infection."
A couple of days later, Sugarbug began to play. On a daily basis, she were given somewhat more potent and extra playful. By the point, she regained energy in all 4 legs, she could not forestall enjoying and pouncing at the toys.
Nikki Martinez
"She likes to play, and when she will get sleepy she cuddles up subsequent to me at the settee. She has one of these candy and delicate disposition. I will be able to't believe her dwelling in the street on my own and scared and hungry," Nikki advised Love Meow.
In lower than 3 weeks, Sugarbug has made an out of this world transformation.
Nikki Martinez
"Las Vegas has an estimated 250,000 stray/feral cats dwelling in the street. Los Angeles has roughly 3 million! If there are stray cats dwelling on your space, step up and get them spayed/neutered," Nikki mentioned.
Little Sugarbug has been in foster maintain 20 days, she has tripled in dimension and her eyes have utterly cleared up. They're blue and lovely.
Nikki Martinez
"From roaming the streets on my own in downtown Los Angeles and ravenous, to a lifetime of comfy blankets and a meals dish that is by no means empty — Sugarbug indubitably enjoys indoor dwelling," Nikki mentioned.
"Fostering saves lives and TNR saves extra."

The journey so far: Lexi Novitske, principal investment officer, Singularity Investments
- Details
- Published: Friday, 30 June 2017 10:54
- Sourced by SolutionsTeam
Alexandra "Lexi" Novitske is the principal investment officer at Singularity Investments, which she launched in 2014 in Nigeria. She oversees the firm's operations in Africa. Singularity invests in visionary entrepreneurs in technology-enabled, early-stage companies in sub-Saharan Africa.
Tell us about one of the toughest situations you've found yourself in, and how you overcame this challenge.
When I first moved to Nigeria I faced tremendous disapproval and biases from family and friends. My parents worried for my safety while my mentors were concerned that my promising career in the investment world would shift into charity work. While these anxieties were driven by genuine care and unawareness about Nigeria, the lack of support behind my decision to dedicate my career to growing African investments made the choice much harder.

One of the biggest issues that wearable brands are facing these days is how to stick them onto the human body without it looking like you're a massive tech nerd.
Smartwatches sort of solve the problem, but they're still mostly behemoths on the wrist compared to your day to day timepieces. So how do you create something that will give you the fitness data that many people crave but somehow stay invisible?
Samsung's new wearable range aims to solve that problem, going down the modular route that many other manufacturers have taken.
The 'Samsung Charm' (which I only gleaned from the app itself, with Samsung representatives telling me there was no name yet) is a small device that can be clipped in and out of different jewellery-based holders.
This means that you can stuff it in a cufflink, wear it around your neck or even have it as a ring if you want to get the maximum fitness data but still want to look stylish with it. Well, sort of… this thing isn't tiny.
There are two versions of the Charm, with the aforementioned one being more multi-faceted than the bracelet version, which is a larger module that adds in wider functionality.
The smaller charm seems to be pretty compact though, given that it's supposed to be able to track steps (and presumably sleep) and give you notifications when they come through.
Sadly, the smaller module can't buzz to let you know when something has come in for your attention – it'll just flash with a notification light to let you know it's time to get your phone out.
The larger bracelet version can do all the haptics though, so if you're looking for something a little more functional then that's the option.
While there were cufflinks on offer to show how versatile the Samsung Charm is, this felt again like a wearable aimed at women, with a necklace, ring and slimline design of the larger bracelet version looking a lot more like female jewellery.
If you're thinking this seems a lot like what Misfit is offering then, well, you're not too far wrong here. The smaller module moves around just like the other brand's does (although it's slightly more compact, thus making it more applicable for things like rings) and the bracelet version mirrors very closely the new Misfit Ray – although given both were launched at the same show it's likely that's just mere coincidence.
Early verdict
I was only able to pick up the bangle version of the smaller Samsung charm, so wasn't able to see how easily it flitted in and out of different holders. It didn't seem overly clunky though, and while it would be a larger ring to wear, it wouldn't look ridiculous.
The key question here is how accurate it could be, given it's placed at random places all over the body – can I get the right amount of step tracking information from my finger as around my neck?
It'd be great to see more male-centric places to use this as well to make it properly unisex, as I really like the idea of shoving it in a pair of cufflinks. There's no word on price or release date as this seems like just a concept at the moment – but a cool one that shows the bigger players are thinking about how to get wearables more seamlessly into our lives.

Eagle Tower might be the one dungeon where I felt it was wasting my time a tiny bit, but that's the only one.
In the original game I'm almost certain you can break sequence after dungeon 3.
Not going to play this, but I'm going to play either Link's Awakening or A Link To The Past.Which?!
Which version Jack? Colo/ur?
Well, as the classic Zelda structure goes, this is shaping up to be one of the most refined and well paced, so you'd no doubt love it. It's basically Link to the Past, with a more low-key, melancholy story.
After hours of nonstop adventuring I think the momentum has finally slowed on the Eagel Tower dungeon. Just too many fucking ideas happening at once - multiple floors, carrying the ball around, the towers, the switches, the circular paths. Am I right in thinking this is the first dungeon with multiple floors? And they introduce the concept of multiple floors by starting with four?I know exactly what I have to do next but I can't for the life of me find my way back round to the bit I need to return to. I don't think this is meant to be a puzzle - just lost the bloody path. Can't imagine how anyone ever beat this on an actual Game Boy, it's doing my head in.
How many pillars have you knocked down?
And have you forgotten that there's a door in the south east of the dungeon (on the floor you come in on) that takes you up to rooms you can't reach via other routes?
Also, did the chess pieces get WORSE in this? It's such a weird, deterministic thing.
Well at first you try throwing them around randomly, and then you think "I guess they need to be thrown in a way that's like a knight's chess move" so you spend ages doing that and it doesn't work, and then you discover that Nintendo doesn't know how the knight moves in chess.
At least the Face Shrine music is heart-wrenchingly beautiful, though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RrYJ5z-be8
That whole mood got me quite in the zone - the zone I would have preferred to be in for the final hours, but disappointingly wasn't.

On Sunday evening we had our invitational service at church entitled 'Mission Incredible'. As explained during the evening, we couldn't call it Mission Impossible because with God, all things are possible! However, the Nativity is incredible and actually deeply shocking (we'll not expound on that right now). The evening was great and as ever at such events we were left marvelling at the sheer array of talent we have in the congregation. Wesley gave a short, simple but punchy gospel presentation so hopefully some of the many visitors will respond to the gospel at some point.
Enjoy the photos:

Here are the perennials and shrubs I've found that bloom in August in our zone 8 Pacific Northwest garden, bridging the gap between summer and fall.
Finding perennials or shrubs for August blooms was a goal of mine a few years ago when I realized my flower borders were looking mostly green after the flush of all the June blooms that lasted only through July. I started looking at other people's gardens in our area as well as online and in gardening magazines.
Since our flower and shrub borders hold colors of yellow, pink, purple, and white – and never orange or red- this list does't include August's Gaillardia or other hot-colored perennials. So this list could be even longer if you're happy with every color available.
But I have been able to find plenty of August blooming plants in my color palette, and if you're like me, I thought you would appreciate what I have found that blooms reliably. Here are the twelve I have in my garden and some thoughts about them!
Shrubs & Perennials with August Blooms
Pictured above clockwise from top:
- Hydrangea, Endless Summer. I have four of these that line the front of our porch – LOVE.
- Fleabane. This is a reseeding perennial that sometimes doesn't make it through a rough winter, but I love how it fills in blank spots and that it's sweet little daisy-like flowers always seem to compliment anything next to it.
- Malva (from the Mallow family) – I don't know this variety since I got it from my sister's yard. It can reseed a LOT (in her yard) or not, like in mine, but it is not fussy about soil or water and blooms when (and where) others don't, so I really am enjoying it!
- Purple Aster. I cut this back a bit around July 4th to get it to bloom in August when I need the color. This is another plant I have in dry shade, full sun, and partial sun and it looks great everywhere. I'd never be without a perennial aster!
- Japanese Anemone. I have a light pink and a white version and the pink starts blooming mid-July and goes through September! Although I read they are shade plants, these grow in full sun just as well in my garden. I was given the pink variety from a friend who got it from her grandmother, so it's pretty hardy for such a delicate-looking plant.
This is a rose-and-perennial border that was full of color in June from the clematis and roses, and while the roses are budding in preparation for another show in a few weeks they are serving as a backdrop to (left to right):
- Verbascum– I love the flower spikes in June and wish the later ones would stay more upright. It needs staking, obviously.
- Stella d'Oro daylily– Known for blooming it's head off all season.
- Coreopsis 'Moonbeam'– Another plant known for reliable season-long blooms.
- Fleabane
- Sweet William (the pink just peeking above the fleabane)- This doesn't always make it through the winter for me, but it's usually easy to find again to plant, just for the summer bloom.
- Pastel Yarrow– This is a must for late summer blooms and they make great cut flowers that last.
A background of spring flowering shrubs and roses forms the basis of this bed that has the same purple aster as mentioned above as well as my favorite August bloomer:
- Black-eyed Susan (rudbekia). I pretty much plant this somewhere in all my beds for that great pop of yellow at the height of the summer. That it's easy to grow and replant from rootings is just a bonus.
Yes, well…hydrangeas. I don't even want to tell you how many I have – I love them. Not only is this bed blooming with more Stella d'Oro daylilies, but also with:
- Hardy geranium, 'monster.' I have to keep this baby in check here, but after I cut it back, it just puts out more blooms.
- Little Lime Hydrangea (bottom left). I wrote all about this plant last year – my newest favorite hydrangea.
- PeeGee Hydrangea standard. LOVE the peegees, but not sure why mine has never looked like others I've seen – the flowers should be much more cone-shaped and large (this plant is about 5 or 6 years old). Oh, well, I enjoy it anyway!
I'm including a photo of this shrub, Spirea (which is one of my all-time favorite shrubs, by the way), for two reasons:
- It's actually a July bloomer in my yard – which you can see from all the brown blooms that I haven't deadheaded.
- BUT if you shear all those blooms off, you will get a second August bloom – which you can see all around the bottom and a few here-and-there that I clipped. I was just shaping this shrub when I sheared it back and didn't really think about it blooming again – note to self: half-trimmed plants look ridiculous when they rebloom!
Oh, did you spy the huge thistle growing up through the middle of the bush? You know that saying to "plant thickly to keep weeds away?" Um, I could show you many areas in my yard where that just doesn't ring true – I've pulled about 20 of these thistles around and in this plant already this season!
Is it just me, or do you have weeds grow in your "thickly planted" areas, too?
I'd love to know what perennials and shrubs you grow for late summer blooms!

Good morning, my friends. Your liberal professors and in-the-tank media keep trying to tell us how awful our country is, but at the end of the day, people still want to be here, still want to become citizens (waves at Tushar), still know in their hearts that Reagan was right. A sincere thank you to all who serve and who have protected this way of life.
Thank you for your attention, and y'all have a good day.

Pronunciation: \ˈstim-yə-ləs\
Function: noun
Inflected Form(s): plural stim·u·li \-ˌlī, -ˌlē\
Etymology: Latin
Date: 1684
: something that rouses or incites to activity: as a: incentive b: stimulant 1
Okay, how hard is this? It's very simple, really; does it stimulate or incentivize the economy with money to get that same money into the hands of the people who will spend it on goods and services? Does it produce jobs in the short term, say within six months and specifically within a year?
Business/corporate tax cuts, "tax" rebates (yes, even if some receive that are not entitled) and grants for business start-ups or honest-to-God shovel-ready projects that require immediate new hires. Everything else is a wish list and desires; it does nothing to stimulate the economy and only gives those that want a socialist government what they've wanted for forty years. That is not stimulus, that's social engineering and payoffs to the unions and supporters.
So, easy enough–
If it gives the incentives to stimulate job production: Keep it!
If it does not: Scrap it!
All these other programs and items in the Bill, especially the infrastructure repair and expansion, should be addressed separately in individual bills or in a spending bill.
We all need to see what our Senators are doing regarding this Stimulus Bill, and inform them what we believe should be done. Let them know (see contact link below) we want no Pork, no Social programs, and if it doesn't produce a job in the near term, put it in a different bill, including the Republicans stupid proposal to bail out the Foreclosures–that should come out of the TARP–wasn't that part of that plan?
