I found many of them didn’t get a single interview after all this effort, I don’t know why, but many physicians started to talk about “Connections”. As a next season applicant with many others Libyan applicants who will apply next September insha, allah, we need to connect with other Libyan doctors.

The term zeitgeber (literally, time giver or time cue) refers to environmental variables that are capable of acting as circadian time cues. These are the cues that influence the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus which famous as the "biological clock" inside us.A simple mnemonic to remember all those cues think "LET'S Eat":1. Light (most powerful).2. Exercise or Movement.3. Temperature.4. Social Cues.5.

• 2.9013 is the ratio of positive to negative interactions necessary to make a team successful. This means that it takes about three positive comments, experiences, or expressions to fend off the languishing effects of one negative. Dip below this tipping point, now known as the Losada Line, and workplace performance quickly suffers. Rise above it—ideally, the research shows, to a ratio of 6 to 1—and teams produce their very best work.• Best positive to negative ratio 3-1 to 6-1.• Interestingly, Fredrickson found that 3:1 was the ratio at which people began to flourish outside work as well. Her research revealed that when people have three positive thoughts to every negative thought, they ar

I would like to share this interesting case from couple of days ago.A 63-year-old African American lady with acute coronary syndrome. During her catheterization, when injecting the left main coronary artery, the catheter slid and jumped into another vessel. That turned out to be the RCA originating just very close to the left main. A repeat cranial view, (angiogram 2.) Clarifies the relationship between to the separate ostia in the left coronary cusp.CX was occluded and RCA has two proximal tandem lesions.We elected to perform intervention on both vessels. Finding a guide catheter for the apparent RCA was a bit challenging, however we used a JR4 guide catheter but needed to engage the ostium
