Please - if you are sexually active and are not ready, at this time in your life, to become pregnant, use a reliable form of contraception. And take advantage of Free EC Day today by getting yourself a course of the stuff and stashing it in your medicine cabinet. No method of contraception (except abstinence) is 100% reliable, but in case of failure, EC is a far better option than an abortion a month or two later.

one-l for the med set


My friend's wife has just published her third book: MD: A Four-Year Journey Through Medical School. I haven't read it yet, so I can't promise it's as funny as her first or second books (on the world of shidduch dating), but her writing overall is excellent. So I'll do a "didn't read the book yet but I like the person" haskama (see uberimma for details) and say that this would make an excellent Festivus gift for that special medical student/pre-med undergrad/disgruntled doctor in your life.
