Amused by Trivia
Anil Shrivastava "Musafir"
What good is trivia? On the surface, trivia is unnecessary and it does not put groceries on the table. When will it come up in later life that we need to know the difference between an isthmus and a peninsula or how does it matter that Martin Van Buren was the first U.S. born President of the United States?

Humor

Keep Away!
Anil Shrivastava "Musafir"
I know a bunch of folks who have nothing better to do than waste other people's time asking absurd questions. Beware when someone in your family or circle of friends approaches you with futile question such as, "What is the meaning of life?" That is a red flag right there.

Perspective

Where on Earth is Kiribati?
Anil Shrivastava
The International Date Line (IDL) is an imaginary line on the surface of the Earth, that runs from the north to the south pole and demarcates one calendar day from the next. It passes through the middle of the Pacific Ocean, roughly following the 180 degrees longitude but it deviates to pass around some territories and island groups.

Mostly, the International Date Line and the moving point of midnight separate the two calendar days that are current somewhere on Earth.

Food, Education & Pursuit of Healthcare
Bala Prasad
Last two months have been very educational. Every world leader has an opinion as to what ails the US and what is the best cure for it. Furthermore, there are great differences of opinion as to what are the most serious problems affecting mankind. This in turn depends on who we are and where on the face of the earth we are standing. Obviously the problems of sub-Sahara Africa will be different than America.

American Scene

Not So Trivial
David Beagan
There are many who take delight in trivia. One of my favorites is, "What is the southernmost state?" Lest you think it is Texas or Florida, the answer is Hawaii -- and by quite a bit. I would be hard pressed to think of a situation where this knowledge would be useful, I guess that's why it is called trivia. But when you think about it, trivia is not such a trivial thing. In so many situations, knowledge that was once thought to be of no use turned out to be valuable.

Essay

What Happens After Death?
Cara Santa Maria
Hi everybody! Perhaps you're one of the eight million Americans who claim to have had a near-death experience. Did you see a bright white light at the end of a tunnel? Maybe you floated above yourself in an out-of-body experience. Overwhelmingly, people who've had so-called near-death symptoms report a calmness, lack of fear, and feeling of being one with the universe.

Point - Counterpoint

Should We Destroy Iranian Nukes?
Bala Prasad
Israel is threatened with annihilation once the Iranians have their bomb and their delivery system is finally developed. What choice do they have but to stop this situation, no matter what. The U.S., as their most dependable supporter, recommends that they wait and let sanctions work. We think that an Iranian attack is not possible in the next two to three years. But Israel believes that their window of opportunity is shortening - no more than a year - after which their chances of success of a pre-emptive strike will be very low.

Mental Exercise

Secret Stone
David Beagan
A person has three stones, white, gray, and black, and secretly puts one in his fist. The person says you must guess the color of the stone by asking one question. He will answer the question with one of three answers:

�Yes �
No
I don't know.

What single question can you ask so that you know the stone's color?

The Unkindest Cut of All
Niru Prasad, MD
Given the tremendous increase in crime in the United States, it's likely more patients are being treated with stab wounds. Management of these patients can sometimes prove challenging, M Stabbing victims may have also suffered blunt trauma from being kicked or otherwise beaten.

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY A stab wound is a penetrating injury that often results in haemorrhage from a major vessel or solid organ. Depending on the injury sites, the patient may present with altered mental status, hypoxia, paralysis, shock and active major bleeding.

Commentary

Why Obama Will Lose
Robert Bickmeyer
The Republican presidential contenders have selfishly attacked one another, providing ammunition for the Democrats to woo Independent voters. Meanwhile, may I provide a few facts suggesting why many Americans should not re-elect President Barack Obama? In 2008 Obama secured 52 percent of Independent voters. In a recent poll their approval rating of Obama stood at 35 percent.
