clinical skills is a huge portion of our licensing exams though they’re not too heavily marked on. usually just a tool to see if we can obtain information and communicate with a patient to come up with an assessment and plan. but in all of my interactions with other residents, students, and attendings, I’ve only met…

The Double Fine documentary series is one of the best resources anyone’s ever created for game development, so of course it led to Gamergaters and other cretins attacking Double Fine CEO Tim Schafer and other people there.

The horse handled it with equinimity, one would say.

How about a civil war hero like Mary Elizabeth Bowser, who was a free black woman who was a spy for the union, posed as a slave and worked in Jefferson Davis’ household? She was a key figure because she shared confederate military plans/strategy with union military figures. Davis knew there was a leak/spy but never…

i’d second this advice. my husband and i have two rescue dogs. the first one, a beagle/pointer mix, was very easy from the start, partly because she was only in a shelter situation for a week or two before going to a foster. she’s a great dog, and we love her.

Finally, someone posting a picture of their pup.

Some also teach the 3 days 3 weeks 3 months. approach.

Here’s how Germany commemorates the spot where Hitler died. Maybe Southern towns could take a tip from the pros.

I’d add one more thing: if your dog has serious issues and the first trainer doesn’t help you enough, try finding one with experience with extremely difficult behavioral problems before you re-home.

Just throwing this out there because this woman finally understood, it’s not entirely what we want from the dog, but what the dog needs from us. And that takes time:

The problem is that “well hung black guy” means to VERY different things depending on which flag you’re waving. Other than that, I can see the confusion.

Keeping in mind that I could be totally wrong on this, what I got was that we need to always remember that racism does not hurt us nearly as much as it hurts POC. We can - and should! - strongly condemn the racism and absolutely confront the racists in our circle and call them on their shit, but we will never truly…

But I thought Chip Kelly addressed all that locker room stuff. He said he was great and when he was benched for Gabbert, he wasn’t a distraction.

That was the part that killed me. This is yugely unconstitutional, but I’ll sign it anyway because I’m just such a go-along-to-get-along kind of guy. Fuck that shit. If you really think it’s unconstitutional, don’t sign it and make congress override your veto. (Of course, if he didn’t sign it, then that would only…

Your tinfoil hat is too tight, sweetie.

There is nothing like catching a kid butt-ending or slew-footing another kid and giving him 5 (or 4-4:30 depending) to think about it. I always skate over to the kid’s coach and tell him that shit is taught, not imitated, and any more bullshit the coach is in the showers.

Absolutely, could not agree more. To all the morons calling Crosby a bitch or dirty, trying going to an actual game and watching the action behind the play, where the puck is not - AKA where the camera isn’t focused. This shit is done by practically every player on every shift. The difference is they don’t have a…

being annoying and instigating stupid penalties is always sound hockey strategy.

Again, as a squirts, peewee, and bantam referee, I have had to break up scrums among 10-year-old kids and not because they are imitating the pros, but because hockey is a game of constant aggravation, tiny whacks (meant or not) to the exact spot where there’s no padding, fantastic amounts of trash talk, and just the…

He’s pretty awesome! He swam since he was wee all the way through college and even there’s a definite advantage for men’s physiology in swimming, there are plenty of women who can get in the water and SMOKE their male peers.

I think the thing people can’t get about riding is that you can’t pick out the best rider from…
