Being in the medical community is not at all that easy. Competition is very likely. You compete for patients, colleagues and even established hospitals. There are plenty of dangers in the job too. There are the usual health exposure and malpractice suits. In New York, this might have increased in folds because of the population explosion. Being a physician, you always mean no harm but there are plenty of people, especially those who are mourning, to get into malpractice suits. So get a New York medical malpractice insurance while you still can. Get the kind that has the best and appropriate quote for you. new york medical malpractice insurance, of course doesn’t just apply to physicians but to any other medical practitioners as well. Get protected.

I think… the funkiest birthday present I ever got was a Teacup Orchid plant! I mean it’s a real live fuchsia orchid that still flowers a year later. It’s just the sweetest thing! Everytime I water it, I’m reminded of the giver’s love—my dear husband.  It sits on my office desk and it’s quite therapeutic especially on harried workdays. So this year on my birthday, if anyone of you out there is thinking of getting me a present, another teacup orchid plant would be much appreciated! And you can find some nice birthday plants over at www.proplants.com. Choose wisely and generously!  

The furnitures displayed at maisonbertet.com taught me the meaning of STYLE. Well, see… I never cared for hanging-out much in my patio. I just used it for BBQs when friends come, or birthday parties for the kids. But, my patio was totally transformed by my new modern outdoor furniture. Coming home from work, my husband and I enjoy relaxing there. With our Trina Turk Collection, we can lounge and unwind with style!

When I was a kid, I had a love/hate relationship with summer. I loved how it gave me time to be with my family and friends to go on picnics and go to the beaches. Especially the beaches! I love water! I just love how it hydrates and cools my skin. When we can’t go to the beach, my mom would then take us to my aunt’s house because they had a small pool.

Even though we never had a pool, I know how taxing it was for the helpers to clean it. They need to rake the water for fallen leaves and they needed to put an expensive solution on the water to “treat” it. My mom never wanted a pool because of these reasons. I also had a friend who has two massive swimming pools. I can just imagine the cost and effort to maintain them.

I wished we had Doheny’s before. Now, people can just buy pool supplies and accessories through websites like Doheny’s Water Warehouse. Doheny’s offers pool supplies and accessories in discount prices. They give discounts up to 50%! Their pool accessories include pool slides, ladders, floaters and among others. If we had had a pool, I will be sure to check Doheny’s for any needs.

I watched a great documentary the other day on indiana directv. It was about the food that is served at the White House. It was really entertaining. Often different administrations have different house staff, but they interviewed a pastry chef that had worked at the White house for the last twenty years. It was really interesting. The documentary followed all of the preparation that goes into having a State Dinner. The staff at the White House prepares for weeks and weeks. There are details that you don’t even think about that are involved in the set up. Security is a big issue ( especially after the Salahi incident). The chefs start preparing a menu months in advance. They fly in food from all over the United States the week of the Dinner. Of course the first lady has to approve the dinner and drinks that are served. She helps to decide on the decorations, seating arrangements, etc. I just couldn’t believe how much work went into one State Dinner! Maybe one day I will get to actually attend one!
