Tas... the anatolian restaurant!

tilt2009 — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 19:29:17 +0000

Everyone knows London is so multicultural that you have the possibility to try here the most different restaurants and food, so some weeks ago we went to TAS, a turkish chain of restaurants. Of course we love Houmous and Tabule, but because we didn’t really know all the rest we decided to go safe with a set menu: Sahan menu… just 8,95 each.

This menu give you four options for starters: Lentil soup, Tabule, Houmous and Ispanakli Yogurt, but we were so in love with all of them that we choose Soup, Houmous and Tabule: everything was really good and served with a special pitta bread, soft with sesame seeds and absolutely tasty.

For main course we had instead Kofte and Chicken Guvesh with a very nice couscous in both. The Kofte are pieces of minced or ground meat — usually beef or lamb — mixed with spices and/or onions. The taste is quite strong but all was grilled and it was really good. The Guvesh instead is a kind of stew or chicken casserole made with mushrooms, onion and tomato.

So finally the dinner was really interesting, different from what i normally eat, not heavy or particularly greasy at all and the flavors were really nice. If you also consider then the very cheap price and good service, i think you can have a try!

PS. Mamy qualche tempo fa ho provato un ristorante Turco: volevamo mangiare qualche cosa differente e abbiamo visto che non era molto costoso e siamo andati. Vabbe’, considerato il fatto che io e Julio andiamo matti per l’houmous e il pane pitta che usano loro, diciamo che avvicinarci alla loro cucina non e’ stato poi cosi difficile e la carne ed il couscous come lo cucinano loro e’ proprio buono. Sono sicura piacerebbe anche a voi!

The exam must be getting close, because I’ve cracked.

Today, Dr. Waters gave our final lectures in embryology, which covered the male and female reproductive systems. This is the last bit of new material we’ll learn before our big exam on Friday. As part of it, she occassionally shows diagrams and slides of embryos and asks us to identify parts. At the end of her first lecture, she then puts up the following picture:

(from onshuffle.wordpress.com)

”What is this?” she asked. Like everyone else, I stare intently for a full minute, trying to discern the structures, and I draw a blank.

“It’s a picture of the planet Venus!”

She’d shown a photo of the Venus de Milo at the beginning of the lecture, so she’d put that in as a closing slide. We all groan out of shame. Apparently I and many others cannot tell a planet apart from an embryo.

***

Truth be told, though, though there’s been a lot of info, it’s amazing how much we’ve absorbed. Take Dr. Waters’ lectures, for instance. At the end of her last lecture, she pulled up a diagram of an embryo, pointed to various parts and asked us which germ layer (endoderm, mesoderm or ectoderm) they came from. We got them all right.

But there’s an exam on the horizon, so now we need to review. And that meant that the rest of today was spent in various review sessions.

The first such session I went to was a TA-led Histology review of the male and female reproductive systems, where we went over what each part looks like under a microscope. To quiz us, then, they’ll put up an image, and they’ll ask us to identify it and explain why. Here are two questions and the actual responses.

“What is this?” “Active breast tissue.” “Why?” (Medium-length pause before response.) “…because it looks more full.”

“What is this?” “It’s prostate.” “Why?” “Because it looks like prostate! I don’t know! I just memorize the pictures!”

***

Then in the afternoon, there is another “Open Help in Gross Lab” session. This, you may recall, is the time when all the gross lab TAs and lecturers come in for two hours. Groups of students will huddle around one of these instructors, who will then go to various bodies, tag different structures on it and then quiz us.

Ellen the Magnificent is there, and she spends a little more time on physiology. If you want pure anatomy tag review, then Betsy (i.e. Dr. Ezerman) or Jean (i.e. Dr. Szilva) is the way to go. Traditionally, I’ve gone with Betsy. Today I try Jean, who is as perky and excitable as she has been throughout the entire course.

So we tag. There are always a few things you have to brush up on, but in general I feel stronger in anatomy than I ever have. We also ask questions about how they’ll want us to phrase various answers. For instance, one of the first rules we learned is that you always have to specify your answer as a ”nerve”, “bone”, “artery”, “vein”, “ligament” or other structure. If you put “internal pudendal” as an answer, you’re wrong, since the full answer is “internal pudendal artery”.

So someone asks this question after we correctly identify something as the portal vein: “Would you want us to say hepatic portal vein?” Jean replies, “That would be nice. But it’s Christmas! So we won’t be too picky.”

Another student then responds, “Can you tell Dr. Carson Cornbrooks that too? That way, I can just put ‘cell’ down for all the Histology questions.”

We’ll see how easy they go very soon, I suppose.

Tas Helm Pengaman Helm Anda

jawaban011 — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 01:29:51 +0000

Pertumbuhan jumlah penjualan motor sebesar 6 juta unit pertahun juga ternyata mendongkrak penjualan dari aksesoris pendukungnya seperti helm karena adanya wajib menggunakan helm. Bertambahnya pengguna helm ini tentunya akan menimbulkan hal baru yakni tentang keamanan dari helm itu sendiri.

Sudah sering terjadi dimana helm di letakkan ditempat parkir motor akan hilang pada saat si pemilik kembali. Hal ini tentunya membuat keresahan tersendiri bagi pemilik helm. Hal yang banyak dilakukan selama ini yakni menitipkan helm ke tempat penitipan helm (bila ada) atau membawanya sendiri dengan cara dijinjing yang mana cara ini dirasakan tidak terlalu nyaman untuk sementara orang.

Namun kini anda tidak perlu repot lagi dengan helm milik anda karena sudah tersedianya tas helm yang akan membantu anda untuk mengamankan helm kesayangan anda.

Tas helm ini berbentuk tas punggung yang dapat distukan dengan tas punggung anda. Untuk memberikan pengamanan ekstra juga disediakan pengait didalam tas helm itu sendiri. Tas helm ini juga dapat digunakan untk membawa bola futsal atau bola basket.

Harganya yang relatif terjangkau juga akan memudahkan segala lapisan untuk memilikinya. Untuk itu juga tersedia cara bagi anda yang ingin memanfaatkan peluang ini sebagai peluang usaha baru yakni menjual tas helm.

Je hele hebben en houen in een tas

suheartono — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 21:46:29 +0000

Donderdag 3 december werd de campagne ” Je hele hebben en houen in een tas ” geopend door prinses Maxima in Rotterdam!

foto: Marielle van Uitert

Ik ben de afgelopen maanden stad en land afgereisd om verschillende tassen van zwerfjongeren te fotograferen. Het idee erachter is dat je deze jongeren anoniem portretteert waardoor de drempel om het verhaal te vertellen lager is. Tegelijkertijd laat je zien dat de tassen van dak- en thuisloze jongeren er hetzelfde uitzien als ” normale” jongeren.

Momenteel werk ik aan een making of video, omdat dit zich beter leent om je een beeld te geven hoe de campagneuitingen tot stand zijn gekomen.Voor nu verwijs ik door naar de site van stichting Zwerfjongeren Nederland.

FTHB Tax Credit Installment #5

rmbpmp — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 19:57:35 +0000

Today’s update talks about the Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) Process. The TAS process is to provide a taxpayer an escalation path (in theory independent of the IRS) for when the normal tax processes fails. If you have been following this blog I think you would agree that the normal processes failed. In October after after four month of no progress with the IRS on my FTHB Tax Credit request, and after the IRS closed my case, and after all communications failed I finally broke down and called the TAS. Each State has an office and you can call them. In my case when I called I was met with a challenge. “Why are you calling?, “Is your reason for calling a hardship? “, “Has it been at least 16 weeks?”

Taxpayer Recommendation #5

Wait 16 weeks before you escalate to TAS. Ignore the tone of the person answering the phone if they appear to be coping an attitude (this includes their phone tree). Have a summary of you issue and relevant dates and issues, ask for an Advocate to represent you.

Assuming they agree to take your case TAS will assign you a Taxpayer Advocate in about a week.

Learnings you (the taxpayer) should know:

a. Once the TAS takes your case any IRS process you have been doing is stopped (in theory – not quite true since I still get an occasional mailing from the broken processes mentioned previously, even though my case was closed and is now under TAS control). Your task advocate now has the ball.

This is great from the point of view that you now have one person to deal with and one person you can call.

This is bad if your Advocate drops the ball. There is no escalation path identified for when TAS fails (more on this in later updates)

b. My Advocate was very friendly, listened to my story, asked questions, and requested all my communication history. She committed to acknowledge the receipt of my information and promised to call me back and discuss next steps and She did.

At this point I need to digress for a moment.

Definition of an Advocate:

A person who argues the case of another, such as a lawyer in a court; A person who speaks in support of something; A person who supports someone to make their voice heard, or ideally to speak up for themselves; To argue for someone else; To encourage support for something

TAS Web Site:

The Taxpayer Advocate Service is Your Voice at the IRS!

The Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) is an independent organization within the IRS whose employees assist taxpayers who are experiencing economic harm, who are seeking help in resolving problems with the IRS, or who believe that an IRS system or procedure is not working as it should. Here are seven things every taxpayer should know about TAS:

1. TAS is your voice at the IRS.

2. Our service is free, confidential, and tailored to meet your needs.

3. You may be eligible for TAS help if you have tried to resolve your tax problem through normal IRS channels and have gotten nowhere, or you believe an IRS procedure just isn’t working as it should.

4. TAS helps taxpayers whose problems are causing financial difficulty or significant cost, including the cost of professional representation. This includes businesses as well as individuals.

5. TAS employees know the IRS and how to navigate it. We will listen to your problem, help you understand what needs to be done to resolve it, and stay with you every step of the way until your problem is resolved.

6. TAS has at least one local taxpayer advocate in every state, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. You can call your local advocate, whose number is in your phone book, in Publication 1546, Taxpayer Advocate Service — Your Voice at the IRS, and on our website at Contact Your Advocate. You can also call our toll-free case intake line at 1-877-777-4778.

7. You can learn about your rights and responsibilities as a taxpayer by visiting our online tax toolkit at www.taxtoolkit.irs.gov.

Given this commitment my expectation was high, Why wouldn’t it be, given the above mission?

My actual experience:

I had my first action meeting with my Advocate. She told me and my wife that she had received all of my information and that She was expecting to have our case resolved by November 30th (45+days out) and she would call on or before November 19th with an update.

Well November 19th came, no call. I called her the last 15th minutes of the day and did get a call back. The conversation went like this. “Thanks for the call. I did request and received your examiners report, but have not reviewed it, and oh I will not be making the November 30th date. My new estimate is to have this resolved by Dec 30th and I will call you back on Dec 21st.”

Simply Unbelievable Occurrence (SUO) #3

My Advocate lied to me, did virtually nothing for 45 days, she wants another 45 days, and she didn’t even have the courtesy of letting me know she would NOT be meeting her promise, not to mention her call back.

Now what the heck do I do?

Options:

A. Wait another 45 days

b. Escalate to the next level.

c. Give up and start writing a blog.

d. All of the above.

What I am doing:

D. All of the above.

Let me start with C. Give up and start writing a blog. If you found this blog I hope some of my story resonates and is helpful. Have I totally given up on the credit? No, but clearly both the normal and the escalation processes are broken and I have zero faith in either the IRS or the TAS leadership at this point. Blogging has help me dealing with this BS.

B. Escalation. As far as I can see there is no process to escalate my case to. I have sent a Letter of Disappointment to my Advocate asking for the escalation procedure. That was two weeks ago, no response. I also sent a letter to both the heads of IRS and TAS again no response. I also visited my local IRS office and asked for their advice. I will discuss that meeting in tomorrow’s blog.

A. Waiting. I am waiting to see if my Advocate has lied to me again. My expectation is very low.

Recommendation to TAS #1

If you can not meet a forecasted commitment then call and let the Taxpayer know ASAP, don’t let them discover it. This is Customer Support 101.

Recommendation to TAS #2

An advocates power is based on trust first and results second. You miss either you fail. Change you metrics.

Recommendation to TAS #3

If you can’t do your job then report that to congress.

Lastly we are now in week 28.

How Superhearing Works (12/2/09)

joshpothen — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 03:50:00 +0000

(Courtesy of www.smallvilleph.com)

7 AM. Finished eating breakfast. Decide to check Secure Exam score. Find out I passed. Thank goodness.

***

9 AM: Doctoring Skills. This week we’re learning how to do an abdominal exam. In the introductory lecture, Dr. Rubin asks whether anyone’s had various conditions. Lots of classmates have had heartburn. Only one of us has had their appendix removed. Dr. Rubin asks her why she had it taken out. “I got into a car accident in Spain,” she tells us. (Nothing major). “The hospital took it out without telling me. They wanted to take out my spleen too, but my Mom wouldn’t let them.” (Thank goodness.)

We break to meet with our SPs. We’re also doing a male genital exam, which is a tad awkward, but goes over well. The SPs are very gracious and helpful.

As part of it, we have to put our finger up the inguinal canal in the thigh to check for hernias. “Be careful not to go too fast, ” our SP cautions. “If you go too far, I’ll have inguinal pain for two weeks.”

Thankfully, we didn’t.

***

Wednesdays are nice because I get done around 11 AM. There is an embryology lecture later on that day, but aside from a secure exam review, that’s about it. So I get lots of time to study. I hang out with one of the Histology TAs during lunch during her office hours. Later, I grab a classroom and study. (I like to draw diagrams on the whiteboard or pretend-teach the lecture notes.)

One of my classmates stops in and tells me a fascinating story. Turns out on his flight back to Burlington at the end of Thanksgiving break, he met a woman who had an ear infection that had affected her tensor tympani muscle.

This muscle is responsible for dampening vibrations in the ear when you’re exposed to a really loud sound. Otherwise, you’ll hear them as, well, really loud sounds. Apparently hers couldn’t do its job effectively as a result of the infection, so her hearing was very sensitive. She couldn’t even eat food without hearing her jaws chewing as a painfully loud noise.

But this also gave her the ability to hear noises that were very far away. “She could hear the neighbors talking in the house next door!” he told me. “It’s like having a superpower!”

Now I know how superhearing works. I need to check if The Science of Superman says anything about control of the tensor tympani muscle.

HSF Block 3: Epicurus (11/30/09)

joshpothen — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 03:30:00 +0000

(from www.motmplus.com)

It’s time for a change. Clearly, writing on Saturdays (my only day off from studying) isn’t working. It’s time to transition to daily writing. It’ll take less time, give me my Saturdays completely off, allow for more reflection and up the number of posts on the blog. Everyone wins!

***

It’s the day after Thanksgiving break. It’s hard to get up. Thankfully, I spent part of yesterday studying, and so I feel a desire to get back and learn more.

I get to UVM around 7:30 and spend some time reviewing the Red Book (our anatomy book) and our Dissector before class at 9.

***

9 AM begins Block 3 of HSF. As I walk in, I find the customary packet of printed lecture outlines for each lecture in these next few weeks. I grab it and take a seat.

Betsy (i.e. Dr. Ezerman) welcomes us back and reminds us to do evaluations so we can see our grades. She reminds us that Block 1 was “Motors, wires and chassis”, i.e. lots of muscles and what innervates them, while Block 2 was ”Plumbing and climate control”, i.e. respiration, cardiology, the endocrine system and homeostasis.

Block 3, she informs us, is about the gastrointestinal system, i.e. “Eat, drink and be merry!”

She then introduces Dr. Haeberle and his “barf cart” to simulate the digestive system. For some reason, it looks to me like the bottom part of a concession stand cart with a bunch of scientific apparati on it.

He’s a bit of a character. To demonstrate that chewing produces a cohesive bolus (a ball of food that won’t stick to your esophagus), he ground up some food, rolled a bit of it into a ball and threw it into the audience. It did stick together after landing.

He also utters this phrase during the lecture: “Au contraire, my gastrointestinal neophyte.”

Dr. Mawe then comes to give two lectures about the impact of a meal on the gastrointestinal system. Pretty straightforward. But you gotta love a guy who shows us pictures from his colonoscopy as part of his lecture. (Not to mention an image from when his son swallowed a quarter.)

***

Lunchtime comes. This time, I take it with the Reproductive Rights interest group, who are having a seminar with free pizza. Cate Nicholas, who heads the Doctoring Skills part of HSF along with Dr. Rubin, talks with us about how she worked as an abortion care provider for several years and discusses her experience and thoughts.

Even though it was somewhat lighthearted in discussion, it still is sober to discuss. It has to be. What I walk away with is the fact that the abortion issue is much more complicated than most people on either political side realize.

***

From 1-4, I have Histology. Thankfully, most of this is redundant with what we talked about in the lecture today.

The two course TAs come in to lead this session. We love it when TAs lead because they’re concise, they hit everything we need to know for the exam and they’re super-helpful with helping us identify structures.

Watch this name: Isabella Martin. My understanding is that she’s going into pathology. If so, she will not only be an excellent pathologist, but she will also be an effective and enthusiastic teacher.

***

Afterward, I go to a classroom and spend some time teaching myself information from the RedBook. Then I go home, have dinner with my housemates, and prepare for lab tomorrow, do some Imaging and review Histology / today’s lecture notes.

As I review the lecture outlines, I find this paraphrased phrase: “I was going to put an exclamation point here, but didn’t upon remembering the Seinfeld episode that mentioned that topic.”

I rethink whether Dr. Mawe is antic-free.
