![]() Granted, this is much easier said than done. For example, in this card that I created for a student several years ago, you can see that I connected, but because I was able to integrate all of the information together, I only had to make two cards instead of the 8 they had been trying to make.įor this one example, I was able to reduce the number of cards I had to make by 75%! Just think if you are able to do this for all of the topics in First Aid, how many fewer cards you would have to make, and how much better you would know the information for your test! Instead, if you can connect the various facts together, you can dramatically reduce the number of cards that you make. For this topic alone, you can easily generate eight cards, forward and reverse for pathogenesis, presentation, time course, as well as radiographic appearance. ![]() To do this effectively, however, you would have to make separate cards for each of these things, so as to not put too much information on any given card. The vast majority of students on forums and other places you will see online simply go to First Aid, and make simple flashcard-type memorization cards on things like pathogenesis, presentation, time course and whether they will cross the falx cerebri or not. Let’s take for example subdural and epidural hematomas. On the flip side, the worse you know a particular subject, and the less depth and integration you have, the more cards it will take to understand it. The same applies to making Anki cards the more connections you can make, the fewer cards you end up making. You’ve probably noticed that the better you know something, the fewer words it takes to describe it. Make pathogenesis presentation cards to improve retention and reduce the number of cards you make Here I share 5 tips I’ve picked up to make spaced repetition work for you. If you haven’t had a chance, you can read my previous tutorials on how to make Anki cards, more advanced Anki tips, as well as other frequently asked questions. That may seem like a lot, and it certainly did at the time, but I’ve heard from students who are doing more than 1000 cards in a day, and are feeling burned out and unable to keep up with their current block, let alone all of their old cards from previous blocks. During my second year of medical school, I was doing upwards of 350 to 400 old cards a day, with roughly 45 new cards I was adding to my reviews daily. I, too, have felt overwhelmed by the number of cards to review. How many cards approximately should I have in each deck? Should I just be making cards for key topics? And how many cards did you do each day? Specific advice would be greatly appreciated! I was wondering if you could offer advice on how to keep up with numerous decks at once. my reproductive deck alone contains 400 cards), and I am feeling overwhelmed. Over the last few months, I have accumulated a few thousand Anki cards on a small number of topics (i.e. ![]() Hey Alec, I have been closely following your website as I prepare for Step 1. Here is a question that I got recently from a student, which could have been from dozens of other students that I’ve heard from, or worked with personally, who struggle with feeling trapped under a mountain of Anki flashcards. ![]() So what can we do to make sure that we use Anki for its good aspects, but prevent ourselves from being overwhelmed? How can we turn spaced repetition into a tool for good, without being buried under a deluge of flashcards? However, it can also be overwhelming, and even detrimental to the point of taking away time from doing other, more important things. It has single-handedly changed my approach to medicine, and is one of the key factors for me scoring 270 on the USMLE Step 1. Anki can be one of the most amazing programs for medical school and the USMLEs. ![]()

We all know someone whose roof home could use a little attention, especially their roof. ![]() ![]() Paulina Porizkova, Kim Kardashian, and Jennifer Aniston are just the tip of the iceberg - read on for more women who posed nude over the age of 40 and see how their fabulous photos turned out. And it’s about time we started appreciating them as such. These photos don’t just take a stand against our ageist, sexist culture, but prove a very important point: Women in their 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, and beyond are sensual, beautiful, and highly, highly appealing to look at naked. But nearly 15 years later, we’re seeing more and more celebrity women over 40 take the plunge and share their own nudes, whether they’re posing for magazine covers or sharing home-made snaps to Instagram. And it seems this logic is starting to catch on - when Jennifer Aniston posed naked for the cover of GQ in 2008, it was a big deal that a 40-year-old woman would show herself so fully. ![]() Porizkova’s logic makes perfect sense to us: a society that encourages teenagers to sexualize themselves while denying women in their 50s the same right is not a world we want to continue to live in, on either end of the spectrum. ![]() I may be 56, but I’m as fully a woman as I was thirty years ago, in fact, I’d argue: more so.” This is a major societal taboo which is precisely why I post what I post. “ An older woman is allowed wisdom, humor, patience - but not sensuality. Back then, I couldn’t be proud of who I was because I didn’t yet know who I was,” she continued. “I have done the same sort of photos since I was fifteen. By what standard is it ok to ogle a nude teen, but not a mature woman?” No one tells them to put their clothes on. I’m doing it because you see thousands of images of younger women in the same situations. ![]() “I don’t do this for compliments or likes. “I post bikini and nude photos because I finally feel good in my skin,” she wrote below one nude November post. Paulina Porizkova, who frequently speaks out on Instagram about navigating her changing appearance as a former supermodel in her 50s, has posed nude countless times to prove how much beauty she has to offer in this iteration of herself, and to share commentary on how we’ve treated nudity in media for so long. Luckily, our current crop of celebs have been fighting back hard against the idea that you should have to look one specific way in order to feel good about showing off your body, and they’re putting their own figures on the front lines of Instagram trolls and outdated critics to prove just how messed up it is to think that 19-year-old models should be encouraged to strip down for the camera while 55-year-old models should be hiding their features. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() No Adult Content - direct those to /r/nsfwasmr.

An assortment of beverages is also offered, including coffee, lattes and bottled sodas as well as beer and wine for the 21 and over crowd. You can even purchase a bag of their specially made bread to take home with you! They also offer a breakfast menu which includes omelettes and French toast and is served 7-10:30 a.m. Everything, from the bread to the pastries are made fresh from scratch. The menu options are a bit pricey for example, my sandwich and pasta were $9.95, but the quality and size are definitely worth the price. It was the perfect way to top off my meal.Īlthough everything is served on plastic plates, do not be deceived-you are receiving a high quality meal. The crust was just the right amount of crunchy. You can definitely tell it’s pumpkin pie. From the first bite, the flavor was rich and extremely moist. I couldn’t resist a slice of the pumpkin pie with some whipped cream on top. There was a variety of pies: Apple, Pecan, Pumpkin and Strawberry Rhubarb. When ordering food, one cannot help but look at the display of the many desserts offered at Simple Simon’s. The cold pasta contrasted nicely with my warm sandwich. The red bell peppers gave it a hint of spice which made for a zestier flavor. Not wanting to neglect my pasta salad, I took a bite and was instantly pleased. The pesto sauce, which is made of basil-an herb especially popular in Italian dishes-also consists of olive oil, which is why those two flavors were very rich. Although the other ingredients complemented each other well, the bread and the pesto are what made the sandwich. The sandwich also came with provolone cheese, tomato, romaine, Parmesan, pesto and Caesar dressing. The olive oil that I had smelled was coming from the bread, which was warm and crisp, yet moist. And the next, and the next, and so forth-you get the idea. The distinct smell of olive oil and pesto instantly hit me. The moment I picked up my tray, I caught a whiff of my food and instantly my taste buds were dancing. ![]() Not surprisingly, the comparisons stop there. ![]() No more than five minutes later, my name was called over a microphone which reminded me of a fast food restaurant like McDonald’s or Burger King. After getting a fountain drink, I made my way to one of the wooden booths along the wall to wait. I then walked along the long counter to pay at the register. At the suggestion of the person helping me, I ordered the Grilled Marinated Chicken Breast sandwich which came with my choice of potato salad, pasta salad, fresh fruit or raw veggies I chose the pasta salad. There was also a variety of soups and salads. Each one made my mouth water more than the next through its description. Grilled Pastrami, Tuna Melt with Swiss, Italian Grinder, Chicken Apple Sausage, Vegetarian and many more. The person taking my order was friendly and patient as I glanced at the many choices, especially the sandwiches. The menu was displayed on two large green hanging chalkboards behind the tall long counter which reminded me of an old fashioned soda shoppe. The atmosphere was relaxed, which immediately made me feel welcomed. Tall wooden booths were lined up against the walls with tables scattered in between. Red bricks lined the walls with a wide open industrial ceiling. Right away my ears were greeted by the loud chatter of the 1 o’clock lunch guests as I surveyed everything around me. From the outside, Simple Simon’s Bakery and Bistro in downtown Riverside looks like a high-end sit down restaurant with floor to ceiling windows and a fancy logo, which is why I was shocked once I actually stepped in. ![]() ![]() While he sounds top-notch for the vast majority, this particular stretch of sound seems to defy any other explanation than his actually intending to sound as awful as possible. This is egregiously exacerbated by some hideous falsetto singing from Shears. It’s a heavy sigh-inducing letdown, and it makes everything a bit too gaudy and garish. “Big Bushy Moustache” starts with a delightfully brittle guitar line and abundant colorful soundcandy, only to get butchered by a chorus that hits too soon and plays too big. These are qualities that remain largely consistent throughout the album, to its great merit. The opener is remarkable for the effortlessness with which it seems to pull off both its catchiness and its attention to instrumental detail, the latter always sounding as if played by musicians who are having an absolute blast. It’s more glam, more outlandishly festive and jubilant, and bearing the influence of Shears’ new Southern home. Moreover, it’s a drastically different take on the sensibility than the Monkeys’ Alex Turners’. So Shears’ adopted sound comes across as fresh. ” Could it be that we are on the cusp of a large-scale resurgence? Whatever the odds, it’s an aesthetic that’s currently light years away from become standard retro fare. The loungy ‘70s piano man was a specimen any reasonably-minded individual would have dismissed as long gone for good, but we’ve already seen an excavation of the type earlier this year on Arctic Monkeys’ “ Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino. At first strike, the sound can be a slightly jarring anachronism, making one baffle at what exactly is going on. He channels the very spirit of John, often picking up his distinctive inflections. It’s in the crafting of the songs, with their piano-heavy styles, their country-tinged sounds, the rounded, decadent vocal harmonies, even in the quirks of Shears’ crooning. Shears and John are friends, and the rock legend’s influence has seeped in big time on this record. While worlds away from the indie electronic stylings of Scissor Sisters, Shears’ self-titled album does have the same unbridled festive creativity, and is a fascinating record in its own right.įrom the first full song, “Good Friends,” the music screams Elton John. Also shaping the sound heavily was Shears’ relocation to New Orleans and absorption of the city’s rich musical heritage. Such as was the case with Panic! At the Disco’s Brendon Urie, who preceded Shears in the very same role, Shears’ music has taken an unabashedly theatrical turn. Shears, in the meantime, has taken up numerous projects, most notably starring in “Kinky Boots” on Broadway. The band has been on hiatus since 2012, other than the exception of one isolated single last year. ![]() Jake Shears is best known as the frontman of electroclash sensation Scissor Sisters.

Genesis has a lot of these agreements, including God’s covenant with the post-flood world (Genesis 9:1–17) and his covenants with Abraham (Genesis 15, 17).Ĭovenant is what moves the story forward in Genesis. Covenants usually involve promises, conditions, blessings for keeping the covenant, and curses for breaking it. Let’s take a quick tour of Genesis’ foundational themes: CovenantĪ covenant is a solemn, binding agreement that makes two or more parties one (you can get a more in-depth definition here). See Bible verse art for each of the other books of the Bible. I will establish my covenant as an everlasting covenant between me and you and your descendants after you for the generations to come, to be your God and the God of your descendants after you. In fact, if the main thrust of Genesis were summed up in one verse, it would be these words that God said to Abraham: Specifically, it’s the story of the promises God made to humans-promises that God begins to carry out through the rest of the Bible. But the story of Genesis is really all about setting the stage for the rest of the Pentateuch: it’s the long, long prologue to Israel’s beginnings as a nation. The book of Genesis is full of stories we know from Sunday school, like Adam and Eve, Noah’s Ark, and Jacob’s Ladder. His brothers sell him into slavery, but through his God-given wisdom, he ascends to the position of second-in-command over all Egypt. ![]() He is also able to interpret other people’s dreams. Joseph-Jacob’s favorite son, who has prophetic dreams of greatness. He has twelve sons, which the twelve tribes of Israel trace their lineage back to. Jacob tricks his father and brother, finagling his way into receiving a special blessing. God makes a covenant (a special binding agreement) with Abraham-which is where Israel’s story as a nation truly begins. Abraham journeys through the land of Canaan, which God promises to give to Abraham’s descendants. God is still at work to bring the world back to “very good” status again-and chooses to begin this work through a man God names Abraham.Ībraham (formerly Abram)-a Mesopotamian whom God chooses as the patriarch of a special nation. The humans rebel against God, bringing a curse on the world and growing so violent that God destroys everyone but Noah and his family. God makes all things “very good,” but when both humans and divine beings rebel against God, the world slips back into chaos. God (Yahweh)-the creator of heaven and earth, including the humans Adam and Eve. ![]() But in terms of getting an overview of the book, these four characters are the most important ones to know about: If you want a look at the most-mentioned characters in Genesis, Adrien pulled the nerdy data together here. That means there are a lot of characters in Genesis. Genesis is the second-longest book of the Bible (after Jeremiah). The Torah is Israel’s origin story: it’s the history of how the nation of Israel got its population, its land, and its religion. It’s the first installment in the five-part Torah (or Pentateuch), which is the foundational work of the Old Testament. ![]() ![]() On its own, the book of Genesis reads like a string of epic stories: a semi-tragic saga of a world that just keeps going wrong, despite its Creator’s intentions. The book of Genesis is the first book of the Bible, and opens with one of the most famous first sentences of any literary work: “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” It’s where we find the famous stories of Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Noah and the ark, Abraham and Isaac, and a well-dressed dreamer named Joseph. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Our Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles.
