Online & Continuing Medical Education Market Update: Demand Soars in Wake of Pandemic
Continuing Education & Certification
Lifetime Learning Requirements Necessitate Online & Continuing Medical Education Test Preparation Services
In the end, medical test preparation and continuing medical education is about providing positive outcomes for patients from when a medical student is first starting their journey until they are ready to retire. The focus must be on efficacy and quality as people's lives may very well be depending on it.
Jacob VoorheesHead of M&A, Capstone Partners
Demand for online and continuing medical education (CME) services has soared in the wake of the pandemic. According to the Association of American Medical Colleges, the number of students applying for medical school increased ~20% year-over-year (YOY), driven by heightened applicant altruism and aspiring physicians capitalizing on the healthcare labor market gap.1 Furthermore, employment in the Healthcare industry has continued to capture the most favorable outlook among occupational groups, with a projected growth rate of 16% from 2020 to 2030, which would contribute 2.6 million new jobs to the American Labor market, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.2 This predicted expansion is namely due to an aging U.S. population requiring additional medical care, exacerbated by the rising demand for healthcare services amid COVID-19. In addition, more than 40% of practicing physicians will reach the traditional retirement age of 65 in the next ten years, with many accelerating retirement plans due to burnout. The sudden shift in retirement patterns, coupled with the long-term demand for healthcare professionals greatly outpacing the supply, has produced a significant shortage of trained physicians.
Merger and acquisition (M&A) activity in the Online & Continuing Medical Education industry increased 47% YOY, with 22 transactions announced or completed in 2021 to-date. Strategic and private equity buyers have both expressed a strong interest in the space, each accounting for 45.5% of deals to-date with educational institutions comprising the remaining transactions (9%). Industry participants with mobile learning and virtual class offerings have particularly piqued buyer interest, with premium valuations being paid for interactive capabilities such as on-demand help and instruction, gamified platforms, and simulations. In August, Surgical Science Sweden (OM:SUS) acquired Simbionix USA for an enterprise value of $305 million, equivalent to 7.4x revenue. Simbionix provides simulation, training, and education services for medical professionals, specializing in robotics-assisted surgery simulation. The acquisition complements and strengthens Surgical Science's Education business with simulation services in the endovascular, urology, orthopedics, and ultrasound areas.
In 2021, Blueprint Test Preparation completed several transactions in the Medical Education sector, including Cram Fighter and Med School Tutors which provide time-saving study planning tools for the USMLE, COMLEX, and Shelf exams with expert tutoring and residency consulting. Additionally, Blueprint acquired Rosh Review, a leader in high-stakes test preparation and continuing education for medical students, physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and nurses. The complementary acquisitions serve the life-long educational needs of professionals, beginning with their medical programs and continuing throughout their medical careers. A leading investment bank in the Education & Training industry, Capstone Partners served as exclusive financial advisor to Rosh Review during its transaction.
High-Stakes Exams Drive Demand for Medical Test Preparation
Becoming a board-certified medical professional requires a serious educational commitment, with a typical process taking 11 to 16 years, including four years of college (undergraduate school), four years of medical school, and anywhere from three to eight years of area-specific training depending on the student's intended specialty. Throughout this process is a series of high-stakes exams students must pass in order to advance to the next stage, with a minimum of five tests regardless of specialty. As each exam covers independent material, demand for tailored test preparation solutions has increased considerably.

According to Technavio, The U.S. Test Preparation market is forecasted to reach $10.7 billion by 2024 recording a 6% compound annual growth rate (CAGR), with the largest share of the growth (34%) driven by test preparation offerings for university, medical school, and other higher education exams.3 The increasing number of tests administered, and credits required in the pursuit of licensure has necessitated the services of test preparation providers covering the following exams:
Medical College Admission Test (MCAT): The MCAT serves as a standardized exam for prospective medical students in the U.S., Australia, Canada, and Caribbean Islands and marks the first test required post-undergraduate studies. Admission officers interpret MCAT scores to determine if the student holds the foundational concepts and reasoning skills necessary for medical school. The test includes four sections: Biological and Biochemical Foundations of Living Systems, Chemical and Physical Foundations of Biological Systems, Psychological, Social, and Biological Foundations of Behavior, and Critical Analysis and Reasoning Skills. The number of MCAT exams administered in 2021 to-date has exceeded 80,000 and is set to outpace 2020 (100,000 exams), fueling demand for MCAT test preparation providers.
Of note, former Capstone client, Blueprint Test Preparation, a provider of MCAT tutoring and test preparation services, acquired CramFighter, a provider of USMLE study plan techniques and MedSchoolTutors, a provider of technology-enabled MCAT tutoring and advising. Blueprint also launched two new MCAT products, MCAT Live Online (January 2021) and MCAT Flashcards (May 2021) to bolster its online course offerings and mobile-friendly test preparation materials, according to the company's website.4
All students, regardless of specialty, must complete four years of medical school after passing the MCAT exam and application process. Technology-enabled higher education institutions serving healthcare fields have been well-situated to capture heightened demand at this initial stage of medical education, with students selecting accredited schools as a platform for a successful career. In February, Capstone advised American Sentinel University, an elite higher education institution providing high-quality, online advanced degree certification programs in the Healthcare industry, on its sale to Generation Partners-backed Post University. "We are very pleased about becoming part of Post University and believe this merger is in the best interest of our students to ensure growth and innovation in light of the rapidly changing healthcare and higher education landscape. While we are a thriving institution today, joining Post University will make us stronger with access to enhanced support, expertise, and resources. We believe our students, faculty, staff, healthcare partners, and schools using our digital simulations will all benefit from this agreement," commented Mary Adams, President of American Sentinel University, in Capstone's press release.
Clear winners in the Online & Continuing Medical Education industry have incorporated services aligning with multiple steps in the medical education process, generating high levels of customer retention as students can utilize the same provider in each phase. Of note, MedSchoolCoach, a technology-enabled provider of medical school admissions consulting and tutoring for the MCAT and USMLE, has coached more than 15,000 students on admissions and the exams administered throughout medical school, according to the company's website.5 By implementing this end-to-end education model, MedSchoolCoach has garnered a 98% client satisfaction rate with more than 500,000 coaching hours logged.
United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE): The USMLE is a three-step examination for medical licensure in the U.S., assessing a physician's ability to apply knowledge, concepts, and principles, and to demonstrate fundamental patient-centered skills that constitute the basis of safe and effective patient care. Step 1 is typically taken at the end of the second year of medical school (M2) and emphasizes the knowledge of basic sciences including anatomy, biochemistry, immunology, and pharmacology. Step 2 CK (Clinical Knowledge), taken in the fourth year of medical school (M4), ensures that an examinee is competent to practice medicine under supervision through an understanding of clinical sciences, health promotion, and disease prevention. Step 3 represents the final exam in the USMLE, assessing if first year residents are capable of practicing medicine unsupervised.
In July 2021, the USMLE Composite Committee reduced the number of attempts allotted to examinees for each step from six to four to protect the integrity of the exam and more closely align the attempt limits imposed by state medical boards.6 This policy change has amplified the importance of test preparation for the USMLE, positioning accredited providers as attractive targets in M&A. In a recent example, Truelearn acquired Picmonic for an undisclosed sum (June). Picmonic develops a visual learning platform with animated test preparation resources for medical exams such as the USMLE, COMLEX (Comprehensive Osteopathic Medical Licensure Examination), and NCLEX (National Council Licensure Examination) for nursing students. The acquisition enhanced Truelearn's interactive capabilities and broadened its suite of digital course offerings.
Board Certification Exams: Although there is no legal requirement for a medical professional to be board-certified, the majority of hospitals, clinics, and private practices require students to complete a board certification exam to demonstrate expertise in their medical field following their residency or fellowship program. The American Board of Medical Specialties (AMBS) is the recognized leader in developing and setting the gold standard for physician specialty certification in the U.S., with more than 920,000 certified physicians in 40 specialty fields, according to its 2019-2020 Board Certification Report.7 AMBS awarded 31,933 new specialty certificates in 2020, an increase of 12% compared to 2016, exemplifying the widespread adoption of board certification requirements among healthcare providers.
Leading medical exam preparation and CME provider, Rosh Review, announced four new specialty board exam offerings throughout 2020 for emergency nurse, OB/GYN, internal medicine, and psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner certifications, according to the company's website.8 Rosh Review's digital platform provides learning material in more than 25 specialty areas for medical students, physicians, physician's assistants, nurses, and nurse practitioners, available via its web and mobile applications. Founded in 2011, the company has utilized its subscription-based business model to grow its customer base to more than 250,000 learners in 2021.
BoardVitals, a provider of test preparation services for the USMLE and board exams, has also capitalized on the tailwinds of board certification requirements with enhanced digital capabilities such as mobile applications for iOS and Android (launched January 2021). As a result, BoardVitals' subscriber base has exceeded 30,000 physicians since its inception in 2012, according to the company's website.9 The company has also continued to expand its online question bank with the launch of its full-length practice board exams for general practitioners and specialty physicians.
State-Mandated Continuing Medical Education Credits Produce Lifelong Students
Participation in accredited CME helps physicians meet requirements for maintenance of licensure and certification, credentialing, membership in professional societies, and other professional privileges. Almost all (48) states mandate specific CME requirements that must be completed every one to two years, depending on the state's license cycle, in order to remain compliant with the states' governing medical board. As this offers a high degree of revenue visibility for industry participants, CME providers have become optimal targets in M&A. Of note, NexPhase-backed KnowFully Learning Group acquired ChiroCredit in August. ChiroCredit offers online CME for physical therapists, podiatric and naturopathic physicians, and other healthcare professionals. KnowFully, a leading provider of end-to-end professional education in the Accounting, Finance, and Healthcare sectors, pursued the acquisition to strengthen its PharmCon division with high quality, easily accessible CME offerings and support medical professionals throughout the entirety of their career.
CME companies with digital capabilities have been at the forefront of the sector, delivering elevated levels of education content and certifications. US HealthConnect, a global medical education and CME provider, has demonstrated this with more than 12,000 on-demand education programs deployed across six continents through its proprietary platform.10 US HealthConnect serves more than five million healthcare professionals through ten operating subsidiaries including Global Learning Collaborative and Prova Education. Leading CME provider Northstar Creative (NSCI) Group also utilizes digital learning with TotalCME, integrating online and live programming optimized for the modern, mobile healthcare professional. TotalCME includes MedEd On The Go, a mobile application for published CME content, and Impact, offering more than 100 certified, on-demand lectures per year.11

Prefering 4xERSL over the HSL.
As the name states, it does have the highest DPS available at 100-150 meters meters. It is intended as a flanker or a to quickly destroy / cripple an enemy mech. Avoid being focused, stick with your team and focus the same targets.
ALT: replace HSL with Micro Pulse lasers. They have slightly better DPS, slightly lower HPS and lower duration, but slightly lower range and way less alfa strike... MGs already have better range compared to HSL, so it could actually be a nice add because this mech is not intended to fire at anything over 150+ meters.
Really, ERSLs over HSLs? I've been finding HSLs god tier weapons in general. Why ERs?
Just my preference. I often am the guy popping enemy UAVs or pop tarting from 300 meters out.
That's fair, they do give you those options.
Nice punch, excellent dps. A slower piranha with jump jets!


Conservativity.com -- Malkin Echo Syndrome?
I just heard Rush speaking about the extreme Left's idea of "mainstream" thought: A Molotov cocktail thrown at a San Francisco anti-war rally. I then decided to sweep my normal reads, starting with Michelle Malkin. Now I know who Rush's source is! See this article. Michelle deserves all of the kudos she gets from right-thinking Americans. She routinely covers things that don't make news elsewhere. For example, it was Michelle Malkin who got traction for the story about Air America getting over three quarters of a million bucks via an apparently-illegal interest-free "loan" of federal money intended to help out disadvantaged kids and senior citizens.
"In this case, Michelle has scooped yet another true but scary story of the ultra-extreme Left's idea of mainstream protesting. Her new book, Unhinged, which I am eagerly awaiting from Amazon, details the greater and greater insanity which pervades the conduct of the extreme Left."
In this case, Michelle has scooped yet another true but scary story of the ultra-extreme Left's idea of mainstream protesting. Her new book, Unhinged, which I am eagerly awaiting from Amazon, details the greater and greater insanity which pervades the conduct of the extreme Left. Tires slashed, homes vandalized, Bush campaign offices shot up, GOP office candidate subject to hit-and-run assasination attempt. To the Left, all of this is justified and normal. If it were not, wouldn't the leaders of the Democratic party, as well as people like Michael Moore, Ralph Neas and George Soros come out and condemn such action in the strongest possible terms? The silence of the Left's leaders signifies their assent.
So, these extremists are now getting more violent. Out comes the first Molotov cocktail. These wackos are getting more and more extreme. Luckily for us, the bright light of truth destroys the vampire of Liberalism. And Michelle Malkin is there, every day, vigilant, shining that wonderful light.

Spring has sprung this week and the warm sunny weather begs for some fresh wines. Wines that are floral, fruity and informal. And wines that can be sipped or served at picnics, barbecues or whenever you want to feel a spring in your step.
Here's a new wine that fits the bill for spring sipping: the 2016 Lafage ($17.99) from the Cote'Est in the Pays D'Oc of southern France. It's a blend of Grenache Blanc and Vermentino. Grenache Blanc was a mutation of red Garnacha in Spain and spread across the Pyrennes to Roussillon and the Rhone. Its wines are characterized by high alcohol and low acidity, with citrus and or herbaceous notes.

Home Practical English Similarities Between English and Spanish
Similarities Between English and Spanish
December 21, 2017 , Jecinta Morgan , Leave a comment
Both English and Spanish are some of the languages that are used to convey information verbally, either through signs or in writing. The two styles share a significant number of similarities as discussed below.
What is English?
English is a West Germanic language that was originally spoken in medieval England. Moreover, it is predominantly expressed in Great Britain and the United States as a native. Currently, many people speak English, which makes it be one of the most commonly used languages around the world.
What is Spanish?
Spanish is a language that can trace itself from the Latin America and some parts of Iberian Peninsula, especially after the fall of Roman Empire. There are many dialects that are similar to the primary Spanish language, which is predominantly spoken in Española and other countries.
Similarities Between English and Spanish in terms of "Parts of Speech"
One of the main similarity between Spanish and English is that both have parts of speech in their sentences. These pieces of speech include nouns, verbs, verbs, adjectives, and prepositions among others. It is also worth noting that the part of speech in both English and Spanish are used similarly. That is, a verb represents a doing word or actions in both sentences. However, the arrangement is not the same, which is one of the main contrasting differences. Additionally, both Spanish and English make their plurals by adding an S at the end of the sentences.
Similarities Between English and Spanish in terms of "Dialects and Accents"
Dialects and accents represent language as spoken by a native speaker in comparison to when it is expressed to a speaker from another language. It is essential to dictate that when the same language is spoken from the perspective of a native and second language speaker, different languages and accents are likely to appear. This case is similar to both English and Spanish where the Spanish spoken in Spain has changed words and some of the letters as compared to the Spanish, which is spoken to other parts of the world. The same is seen in English where the English spoken in England has some different features as English spoken in the United States.
Similarities Between English and Spanish in terms of "Word Order and Sentence Structures"
The other similarity between English and Spanish is that the word order and sentence structure is very similar. When one compares a Spanish sentence to an English sentence, there are so many similarities in the way words are arranged, or the way sentences appear. This cannot be seen when one compares the Spanish sentence with a sentence from other languages spoken in the world. However, it is worth noting that the adjective comes before the noun in an English sentence while the adjective comes after a noun in the Spanish sentence.
Similarities Between English and Spanish in terms of " Letters and Character Sets"
As one types of research between different languages that are used around the world, one realizes that the letters and character sets used are different from those used in English, which makes it very hard for one to learn other languages like Japanese and French. Surprisingly, the letters and character sets used in Spanish are very similar to those used in English. However, one will have to understand that there exist some character sets and letters that are used to denote accent and word pronunciation, which brings about a slight difference.
Similarities Between English and Spanish in terms of " Cognates"
One of the main similarity between Spanish language and English language is that there are very many similar words that are shared between the two languages hence making it easy to understand. Moreover, several books have been written showing all the similar words and how they are used in the two languages. It is also worth noting that one will find many words in Spanish ending with a corresponding ending in an English word. For example, all the Spanish words that end with 'acion' represent the English words that end with 'action.' Furthermore, the English words that end with 'ology' are the Spanish words that end with 'ologia.'
Any person who is training Spanish needs to utilize the similarities shown and will have it easy in the understanding of the two languages.
Spanish is apparently more comparable to English than most any different language you would scrutinize. So it's good to be informed of this and use it to your advantage.

Today's a special day for my mom. It's her birthday. Not that she is excited about getting a year older, but the rest of us are happy to celebrate it with her.
While she was away my sister decorated the house with balloons and banners. She also put streamers outside and a sign in the front yard.
Happy 60th Birthday to the best mom a girl could ever ask for. You have been there when I needed you and when I haven't. Your an awesome grandmother to Aubriella. I don't know where I would be without you in my life, loving and supporting me in whatever I decide to do.


David R. "Dave" Kidd is one of those who fell under the spell of fine music at an early age, and as always happens, has never been able to escape, not that he has tried. He feels that this is an area in which one may find more real pleasure than in almost any other.
Born in Haverhill, Massachusetts, Dave found himself a member of a family which included a wealth of musical talent. Both mother and father were excellent amateur musicians, his older brother still performs professionally as a fine pianist.
Dave believes that all young people first show interest in whatever music is available to them, and strongly feels that the present day low in teenage taste is caused by the fact that the majority of adults fail in their stewardship of culture in caring or knowing themselves, and in passing it on to their youngsters.
Of course, at the beginning of his formative years, Dave was subject to the s ame kinds of simple music that other children were subject to. However, when in his early teens, by happenstance he had the opportunity to hear two of the very greatest large jazz bands of the day, the Fletcher Henderson band, and the Glen Gray Casa Loma band. From this rapidly grew an intense interest in jazz, which led to an interest in knowing more intimately how it was made. Dave subsequently studied reed instruments, mainly the clarinet, from a former Boston Symphony Orchestra clarinetist. The influence of this man led to an introduction and an increasing interest in orchestral music of the concert hall. Dave studied theory and harmony, and held down saxophone chairs in various area bands in Massachusetts from the mid-thirties until he joined the Navy in World War II. During the way, he played in a band on a battleship which included almost all "name" musicians, and was noted in the Pacific for its way with large band instrumental jazz offerings. At war's end, Dave returned, but did not return to the public performance on reed instruments, due to an increasing aversion to the performance of commercial music.
During all these years from the very beginning, phonograph recordings were of prime interest to Dave. Of course, they have always been the way to learn what the most advanced people are doing, short of being on the scene. During post-Depression years, when nobody had any money, Dave nonetheless managed a couple of dollars each week for records, and he was fortunate to like the kind that survive, as he uses some of the selfsame jazz recordings during his radio presentations.
Dave has maintained an active interest in all the fine individual musicians and the development of more modern styles and techniques. He has acquired an encyclopedic knowledge of the records and the musicians involved. He has a personal jazz record collection in excess of 50,000 titles, and he is conversant about each of them.
The Dave Kidd Jazz Show, in which Dave discusses jazz performances and shares his recorded music, is heard on WGY, Schenectady, each Monday evening for two and a half hours beginning at 8:05. It is heard each week up and down the entire Eastern seaboard, and as far west as Milwaukee, if listener response is a criterion.

Q: Update preinstalled pip on macos I was going to install anaconda on mac to use python via spyder. Now, in terminal I noticed that my mac already has python 2 and python 3.7.3 installed. So I figured that I wouldn't need anaconda anymore.
Then, I tried to install numpy via pip which gave me this message:

Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Library/Python/3.7'*
Consider using the --user option or check the permissions.
  You are using pip version 19.0.3, however version 20.2b1 is available.
  You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.*

Using
pip install --upgrade pip --user
worked but after trying to install numpy again with --user I got this:

WARNING: pip is being invoked by an old script wrapper. This will fail in a future version of pip.
  Please see https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5599 for advice on fixing the underlying issue.
  To avoid this problem you can invoke Python with '-m pip' instead of running pip directly.
  Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable

    Consider adding this directory to PATH or, if you prefer to suppress this warning, use --no-warn-script-location.*

To avoid issues I uninstalled pip with
python3 -m pip uninstall pip

and uninstalled numpy which I think reverted everything back to normal.
Now, I was also able to do a user install of numpy without the path issues. But my question now is: how do I update the preinstalled pip? Would it be better to install python via homebrew or get anaconda and would that come with its on pip?

Sometimes you just have to try a place for yourself and not rely on reviews. This past Sunday Chris and I found ourselves enjoying probably the best breakfast/brunch that we have had since moving to Brevard just about a year ago. Quite honestly it was a bit of a fluke.
We were headed to a mid afternoon concert at the Brevard Music Center and had planned to do a few stops on the way into town including getting brunch. We have driven past The Inn at Brevard hundreds of times since moving but had never quite figured out when they served meals to the public. This day a sign placed conveniently on the sidewalk in front let us know that we were right on time to enjoy brunch so we pulled in and headed into the historic inn instead of going into town to another restaurant.
I had read several less than glowing reviews in various places about the quality of the food at this place so I was not sure what we would find but quite honestly we were both thrilled with our meals. Sometimes you just have to try a place yourself and not rely on reviews. I imagine some of the reviews I read were justified but on the day we visited service and food were top notch.
The Inn at Brevard was built in 1885 and was the private home of Mrs. Woodbridge who was a widow from Virginia. She entertained a great deal in the lavish home and around 1940 the Inn was sold and became The Colonial Inn for several years. The Inn is on the National Register of Historic Places and is currently owned by Howard and Faye Yager of Atlanta who have a great deal of their massive art collection on display throughout the beautiful colonial home.
We were not there to book a room but instead for brunch and when we arrived it appeared that we were the only ones there other than the gentleman (Brett, I think) who served behind the desk and who also served as our waiter. He graciously set a table for us outside as we wanted to sit on the front porch and was friendly and offered us a bit of the history of the place.
The food—oh the food. The pictures will show you a bit but it can not capture the tastes. You will have to imagine those on your own.
Freshly made croissants served with pear jelly made from the fruit of a pear tree on site was gobbled up quickly.
Chris chose the Crabcake Eggs Benedict and raved about the flavors.
I chose the Quiche selection and was thrilled to find that not only did my quiche come with a generous side of fresh fruit but we also had a bowl of grits and some amazing vegetables to share as well.
I love how the serving dishes are all different –no matchy matchy here and it works perfectly to showcase the food.
I have become a bit of a connoisseur of grits these days and our waiter told me that these chunkier grits were Yelton grits which I have since purchased a big bag of at Ingles. Guess what we will be having this weekend?
The vegetables included fat slices of heirloom tomatoes peppered to perfection and an interesting blend of sautéed squash, asparagus, spring onions and mushrooms. It topped the meal off perfectly.
Our meal was leisurely and so enjoyable and even if we were the only ones there that day we felt like we had found a little slice of heaven in The Inn at Brevard. Of course we opted to share a dessert and were pleasantly surprised when we were served with our own Berry Cobblers (they just cut the flakey biscuit in half) .
If you are ever in the area I would recommend stopping at The Inn at Brevard. They currently serve brunch from 11:30-2:30 Thursday through Sunday. While their main focus is their guests who book accommodations the public is also welcome for breakfast daily during a limited time so make sure you call to check ahead of time to check on serving times.
I am definitely going back to take a look at the artwork and the Inn itself so you can expect to see a post on that at a later date.
To read more about The Inn and all that it offers make sure you check out their website here.
Looks like you found a gem! A couple of my favorite restaurants have mixed online reviews – as you know, they are not always right. The meal looks so fresh.
It was so fresh and tasty. I think sometimes you just have to experience things for yourself. I am usually pretty forgiving and give a place a couple tries before I make a decision about service and food. This place won me over right away.
It's interesting to read about the food you ate. Our choices are so limited in a smaller community like Faribault. However, a new restaurant is opening soon in an historic building and I am excited about the possibilities. They are promising more than the standard fare for these parts.
I've never eaten grits. I believe they may be an acquired taste for someone from Minnesota.
Oh my goodness—-you have NEVER eaten grits??? I don't know how you have lived this long and never had grits! 🙂 There are so many varieties to choose from and every place makes them just a little bit differently. But I am a huge fan. As you can tell. Your new restaurant sounds promising. Hopefully it will make a go of it. Brevard is a small town of only around 8,000 but it has an amazing selection of both things to do and restaurants mainly because of the huge tourist industry. We are really impressed with everything it has to offer for a small town.
Grits have become one of our dinner-time favorites! Never had it before moving here!
There is nothing like a well prepared bowl of grits. Got some of those lovelies to make for Saturday brekkie!
What a fantastically lovely place you have found! I love that Chris' lemon has a little hat to keep the seeds in! The tomatoes look scrumptious and that dessert…divine! What a delicious trip!
He commented on that very thing but he called it something a little cruder than a hat. 🙂 It was delicious. No doubt about it.
This is my kind of place. The Crabcake Eggs Benedict looks so good and I love that you got grits and some wonderful veges with your quiche! Everything looks so fresh. It is also nice to get all that individual attention when you are the only ones there.

How is Ally able to move to the front, and throw the punch with her upper-right hand when she's on the left of Grax when he's coming through the door?
This doesn't make much sense, because you'll have more power if you're turning into the punch. The third panel makes it even more apparent that Ally would be initially standing on the other side of the door (Grax's right) -- she has time to turn 180 if she was there; otherwise, she'd have to get in front, punch, then turn.
Thankfully, the fix is easy: Redraw the first panel with Ally on the right.

It comes as no surprise to note that humans tend to waste a lot of energy on a daily basis. The drastic levels at which energy is being consumed and wasted can leave future generations with nearly no energy resources. Thankfully, a number of individuals and firms are coming forward to project a better, cleaner future with energy efficient inventions that could power our daily needs without consuming too much energy. The Lumen Flashlight falls into this category.
The Lumen is an energy efficient flashlight that needs heat and not batteries for power. And this heat the flashlight gets from your touch. That's right! The Lumen flashlight is a light source that can function with just the heat generated by your touch and not any other external energy source. The eternal light source can function with the same efficiency as the torch on a smartphone.
The Lumen flashlight comes with a small ceramic bar on the surface. It contains a thermoelectric generator which can convert the heat absorbed from your hands into electric current. The generator works on the principle of temperature differences, and produces enough current to power an LED bulb. The flashlight's metal body acts as a radiator to absorb heat from your body and transfer it to the thermoelectric generator.
Of course it is easy to understand that the Lumen flashlight works on body heat. This means it cannot power high output LEDs with the thermoelectric generator. In standard conditions where the user's body temperature is 92 degrees Fahrenheit and the air temperature is 82 degrees Fahrenheit, the Lumen flashlight can produce a power of about 15 [email protected] This power will be enough to power a 5mm Cree LED that produces a light output of 3000 mCd.
In case the temperature difference is greater, more power is produced by the generator. This surplus power is stored inside a capacitor and will be used to power the flashlight whenever needed.
Another salient feature of the Lumen flashlight is its ability to glow in the dark. The flashlight is available in two materials, aluminum and titanium. An optional addition allows the flashlight to have an inbuilt Tritium vial-glass tubes. These tubes come with a phosphor layer and tritium glass. The phosphor will glow in the dark, with the tubes producing enough light for even a decade. This way, it will be very easy for one to locate the Lumen flashlight even in total darkness.
The Lumen flashlight is an energy efficient light source that gets its power from the heat absorbed from the user's body. It can function eternally and even comes with a glow in the dark feature for one to locate it easily.

Ceremony for MLK Day in Franklin to include update on 'fuller story'
By John McBryde
Local pastors and a historian have advocated for putting historical makers in the Franklin town square where the Confederate statue known as "Chip" currently stands. // File photo
For Franklin Community Church Pastor Kevin Riggs and others who have been involved in what is known as the "fuller story" project, now is the time to hurry up and wait.
Though it's been several months since the Franklin Board of Mayor Aldermen voted to approve the placement of historical markers on the Franklin town square that would tell more of the city's role in the Civil War, Riggs said the project is continuing to move forward despite the holdup caused by the issue's having gone to court. Before the Franklin board had endorsed the placement of the four markers — three plaques would include information on slavery and a fourth would explain the history behind the Confederate statue known as "Chip" that stands on the square — an attorney for the Franklin Chapter 14 of the United Daughters of the Confederacy threatened legal action should the markers be placed on land he insisted belongs to the UDC.
Doug Jones met with preservationists later, but the Nashville attorney refused to budge on the issue, citing an old court decree stating the UDC owns the square of land where the markers would be placed. As a result, the city of Franklin sued the UDC Chapter 14 in Williamson County Chancery Court seeking clarity on the ownership issue.
That was filed last Aug. 28, and the matter remains unsettled. "There is nothing new to say," a spokesperson for the city of Franklin said in an email. "Nothing has been scheduled with the Court."
The judicial stalemate notwithstanding, Riggs said the project continues to gain momentum.
"The wording for the markers is really close to being done," he recently said. "The money has already been raised to pay for the markers. … We feel confident that the wording has gone through appropriate vetting and the wording will be reflective of the bigger picture of what we're trying to do.
"Once the wording is finalized, hopefully in the next month or, the markers will be fabricated and then we'll store them until the court rules on the ownership of the land. Once the issue of ownership is settled, we've been told by the city it won't take long to put the markers up."
Riggs had joined with two other pastors in Franklin — Hewitt Sawyers of West Harpeth Primitive Baptist Church and Chris Williamson of Strong Tower Baptist Church — and Battle of Franklin Trust CEO Eric Jacobson to present the idea of the fuller story and the placement of the markers as well as a statue of a United States Colored Troops soldier. The group plans to present an update and tell a little more about the project during the scheduled service and ceremony on the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday on Monday.
"I think MLK Day is going to be extremely important and historical for our city," Riggs said. "The goal is simply to get people excited about what we're doing and to bring everyone up to date on what our vision is and where we see the statue and the markers going."
The markers will tell the stories of a former slave market on the square, a race riot, the era of Reconstruction and, in a revision from the original plan, the Confederate statue currently standing on the square.
"I hope people see it as a goodwill gesture that we're going to pay for another marker," Riggs said, "and this marker is going to talk about the historical aspect of the monument. We're not trying to tear anything down. Chip's not going anywhere. Most people see the monument and don't think a whole lot about it, and so a marker that explains when it was put up, and how the Daughters of the Confederacy raised money to put it up, will help tell the whole story."
Money is still being raised to have the USCT statue sculpted, and it will also include a marker that will stand beside it. Riggs said the statue will be placed somewhere in the downtown Franklin area and not on the center square where the other markers are proposed to stand.
Support for the plan has been overwhelming, Riggs said, and many in the community believe the gesture is well overdue.
"People have been talking about telling the complete story for years," said Alma McLemore, lifelong resident of Franklin and president of the African American Heritage Society of Williamson County. "It does need to be a part of the history in downtown Franklin. Because when people come here from out of town to visit, they need to see and hear more than just the Confederate statue because that references just one thing.
"So I personally feel like if we can share other stories and we can contribute some of the success and also some of the things these slaves had to endure, it would make a more complete story instead of just one statue right in the center of downtown Franklin."
MLK Day ceremonies will include a service at Franklin's First Missionary Baptist Church at 11 a.m., with a march to follow from the church to the Williamson County Courthouse in downtown Franklin.

IBM, Infineon to Advance Revolutionary Memory Technology
Dec 7, 2000 | Market News
Joint News Release by IBM and Infineon
East Fishkill, N.Y., and Munich, Germany -- December 7, 2000 -- IBM and Infineon Technologies AG (FSE/NYSE: IFX) today announced plans to jointly develop a breakthrough memory technology that could significantly increase battery life of portable computing devices and lead to "instant-on" computers.
The two companies have signed an agreement to collaborate in the development of Magnetic Random Access Memory (MRAM), which uses magnetic, rather than electronic, charges to store bits of data. MRAM may significantly improve electronic products - from computers to cell phones to game systems - by storing more information, accessing it faster and using less battery power than the electronic memory used today. MRAM also retains information when power is turned off, meaning products like personal computers could start up instantly, without waiting for software to "boot up."
IBM Research pioneered the development of a miniature component called the "magnetic tunnel junction" as early as 1974, eventually adapting it as a means to store information and to build an actual working MRAM chip in 1998. Using this IBM technology, coupled with Infineon's considerable expertise in creating very high density semiconductor memory, the companies believe actual MRAM products could be commercially available as soon as 2004.
"MRAM has the potential to replace today's memory technologies in electronic products of the future," said Bijan Davari, IBM Fellow and Vice President of Technology and Emerging Products, IBM Microelectronics. "Today's announcement represents a major step forward for MRAM, quickly moving the technology out of the pure research stage into product development."
IBM and Infineon have more than 10 years experience successfully developing new chip technologies together, including traditional Dynamic RAM (DRAM), logic and embedded-DRAM technologies.
"Infineon and IBM are combining their technological capabilities and resources to help bring MRAM technology to maturity on a fast track," said Wilhelm Beinvogl, Senior Vice President of Technologies and Innovations, Memory Products, Infineon Technologies. "Our proven track record in the joint development of advanced memory and logic technologies is thus further extended by a very exciting and new kind of technology. For Infineon, MRAM technology offers equally interesting potential both for embedded logic products and standalone memory chip applications."
MRAM combines the best features of today's common semiconductor memory technologies -- the high speed of Static RAM (SRAM), the storage capacity and low-cost of DRAM and the non-volatility of Flash memory.
This non-volatility carries significant implications, especially for emerging pervasive computing devices. Memory technologies like DRAM and SRAM require constant electrical power to retain stored data; when power is cut off, all data in memory is lost. A laptop computer, for example, works from a copy of its software stored in memory. When turned on, a working version of the software is copied from the hard disk drive into memory so the user can access it quickly. When power is turned off and then back on, the process has to start over. By using MRAM, the laptop could work more like other electronic devices such as a television or radio - turn the power on and the machine jumps to life.
Non-volatility can save power as well. Since MRAM will not need constant power to keep the data intact, it could consume much less than current random access memory technologies, extending the battery life of cell phones, handheld devices, laptops and other battery powered products.
A combined workforce of approximately 80 IBM and Infineon engineers and scientists will be assisting with the project. Development work will be conducted at IBM's Thomas J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, NY., IBM's Almaden Research Center in San Jose, Calif., and the IBM Microelectronics Semiconductor Research & Development Center (SRDC) in East Fishkill, NY., with additional design and test activity at IBM's facility in Burlington, VT.
