Yes, they really are pretending 'Vitaminwater' is water. Nearly as much "sugar" as Coke, which is why they're being sued over it. This is especially frustrating to me here on the Navajo Reservation where diabetes cripples the community and people try so hard to make healthy choices.
They say they are not trying to use deceptive marketing with Vitaminwater.
What do you think from this picture?
automatum asked: Can you comment on the quality of Brown's medical school?
Brown has an excellent medical school.
They give a huge range of flexibility and options to medical students to pursue their own goals (the famous flexibility that Brown is known for in general) and offer all of the resources you would expect from an Ivy League medical school. You will have the opportunity to learn and train from the people who write the textbooks.
The school recently opened a gorgeous new facility in the Jewelry District of Providence, and the affiliated hospitals are excellent and include specialty hospitals like Women & Infant’s and Hasbro Children’s Hospital.
Providence isn’t Boston, but it’s a great ‘little big’ town, with really wonderful food and good proximity to everything in New England.
Good luck!

Virtue, integrity and courage are my priorities. I can be approached, but never pushed; befriended but never coerced; killed but never shamed."

Nothing.
Instead I come home and have a 4 egg omelette on greens.
Today it's a Kim-chee omelette with tomatoes and onions on a bed of greens with a sesame oil-chili pepper dressing, a cup of green tea, and a small handful of dried banana and pineapple chunks.
All made on the hotel sink!
the power of a dance party when on the Reservation.
Dan and I did this for Christmas 2 years ago and it was totally worth it. It is amazing to get progress reports to see how our water projects are doing in real time.
You can have a new flat panel TV, or you can change life for hundreds of people.
Its really up to you.

Three Things I Love
Welcome to one of the most exciting things I've been wanting to do with Heart Hands & Eyes!
I think we all have a hard time now and again, and sometimes we feel beat down for days, weeks, or months at a time. Sometimes I don't want to go in for another admission when I'm on call, or explain something to a student for the 23rd time. Sometimes I'm just done with gloomy weather. It's life and you and I get over it, but sometimes we're just grouchy or down. One of the ways I've decided to deal with this is through a little exercise in gratitude.
Three Things I Love is a project I've had in mind for some time. There is an idea that a mediation of gratitude can change your brain physically and functionally. There are so many things I'm grateful for, besides just getting to be on this journey.
Each week I want to reflect on three things that just make me happy. Small things like gear, a service, a good batch of beer, a computer application, a person, or a movement. You get the idea.
Focus on gratitude.
