It had been sometimes that I have my iPod touch now. Before this, I was slightly disappointed with its function actually. Don't get me wrong, everything works like how they are suppose to be, but the programs and things that I can do with it is just too limited.And I had been searching for a way to make the iPod help me with my studies. As you know, it doesn't have a windows mobile or stuffs like that, putting a medical software in is just impossible.First I got it unlocked myself, and now, I discovered this!Medical video podcast on iTunes!Let you have a bigger look.Basically you can get all these medical audio podcasts or video podcast from clicking the podcast button on the left bar of the iTunes. Look for 'science & medicine' and click for medicine.The video podcast is still a bit limited. But I personally like the radiology topics, it teaches you how to read xrays films, with videos! Kinda like an animated power point slide shows, but slight better.The other one that I like is the 101 medpodcast (audio). This guy is really creative! He would first disguise his voice into a patient, revealing signs and symptoms, and using his own genuine voice as a doctor. Patient's examination, diagnostic features and managements will be discussed.Most of them last for less than 10 minutes.You can also download some lectures given by the lecturers of US medical school on the topic that you want, just by clicking 'get' beside the topic. Easy and free!Hope you find this review helpful for you iPod/iPhone!

The markets did jump nicely yesterday, but does it really mean anything? Could this just be a bounce, or is the the beginning of the new bull run? According to the charts, the rally could mean absolutely nothing. Take a look at it for yourselves.
by Thomas Sowell When amateurs outperform professionals, there is something wrong with that profession.If ordinary people, with no medical training, could perform surgery in their kitchens with steak knives, and get results that were better than those of surgeons in hospital operating rooms, the whole medical profession would be discredited.Yet it is common for ordinary parents, with no training in education, to homeschool their children and consistently produce better academic results than those of children educated by teachers with Master's degrees and in schools spending upwards of $10,000 a year per student-- which is to say, more than a million dollars to educate ten kids from K through 12.Nevertheless, we continue to take seriously the pretensions of educators who fail to educate, but who put on airs of having "professional" expertise beyond the understanding of mere parents.One of the most widespread and dramatic examples of amateurs outperforming professionals has been in economies that have had central planning directed by highly educated people, advised by experts and having at their disposal vast amounts of statistical data, not available and probably not understandable, by ordinary citizens.Great things were expected from centrally planned economies. Their early failings were brushed aside as "the growing pains" of "a new society."But, when centrally planned economies lagged behind free market economies for decade after decade, eventually even socialist and communist governments began to free their economies from many, if not most, of the government controls under central planning.Almost invariably, these economies then took off with much higher economic growth rates-- China and India being the most prominent examples. But look at the implications of the failure of central planning and the success of letting "the market"-- that is, millions of people who are nowhere close to being experts-- make the decisions as to what is to be produced and by whom.How ...
I think I mentioned this before, but McCain actually does pal around with terrorists. G. Gordon Liddy is a domestic terrorist and McCain joined him on his show in May of 2007 (not when McCain was 8, which is pre-history). Go read Carl Bernstein's post.LIDDY: Your experience in the Hanoi Hilton is remarkable. I mean, I put in five years in a prison [for masterminding the Watergate burglary, and associated crimes], but it was here in the United States, and they didn't torture - the only torture that I had was being forced to listen to rap music from time to time.McCAIN: Well, you know, I'm proud of you. I'm proud of your family. I'm proud to know your son, Tom, who's a great and wonderful guy. And it's always a pleasure for me to come on your program, Gordon. And congratulations on your continued success and adherence to the principles and philosophies that keep our nation great.Care to expand on these principles and philosophies, John?
Lessons From the Bailoutby Walter Williams In my more cynical moments, I think that we Americans deserve what we get from our politicians, many of whom can be generally described as nothing less than loathsome. You say, "Williams, that's a pretty heavy putdown." My question to you is how else would you describe these congressmen who are now blaming the financial mess on the failure of the free market? Starting with the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977, that was given more teeth during the Clinton administration, Congress started intimidating banks and other financial institutions into making loans, so-called subprime loans, to high-risk homebuyers and businesses. The carrot offered was that these high-risk loans would be purchased by the government-sponsored enterprises Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Anyone with an ounce of brains would have known that this was a prescription for disaster but there was a congressional chorus of denial. Five years ago, Congressman Barney Frank (D-Mass.) vouched for the "soundness" of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and said, "I do not see any possibility of serious financial losses to the treasury." In 2004 congressional hearings, where the Bush administration sought greater oversight over Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) said, "We do not have a crisis at Freddie Mac and particularly at Fannie Mae," adding that "the GSEs have exceeded their housing goals." Congressman Gregory Meeks (D-N.Y.) said, "There's nothing wrong with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac." In these hearings Barney Frank said that he doesn't see "anything in the reports that raises safety and soundness problems." Earlier this year, Sen. Christopher Dodd (D-Conn.) praised Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for "riding to the rescue" to help people get home mortgage loans, adding that they "need to do more" to help high-risk borrowers get better loans. The financial collapse of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is not a failure of the free market because lendi ...

Hello there dearest blogging beauties (& non-blogging beauties alike!)!!! It’s time for the 9th edition of the 4bw!

Pics soon in flickr!) … So! What’s in store for the 4bw for this week??
Play Dress up - Remember when we were little kids and we used to mess around with our mom’s clothes & pretend we’re all grown ups? i remember taking this to another level and stealing make up as well and pretending to be some kind of rich princess i loveeee playing dress up!
Sponsor a Tree - Would you like to do some good for your environment? Why not sponsor a tree in your name! You can also sponsor a tree as a gift to someone! Over here in Malta we’ve got the 34u program, where a tree is planted and it’s given a tag with any name you’d live to give it! Check out your local area and see if there’s a similar program near you!!
Do yoga - Definitely the sport for me!! It’s relaxing, it makes you uber flexible & increases your balance as well! Don’t know where to start? Find a beginners guide to yoga book at your local book store … or else find a free ebook online! Start feeling good!
Have no morning - My favorite to do in weekends … just sleep through all the morning, & wake up in the afternoon!
Got any suggestions of your own to be included for the next 4BW (same time, next week!)? I would love to hear from you!! Each idea of course will be credited! Send your brightest most glittering ideas through the usual contact form!
