Anyone else lose power in NP? Lost it around 1110am. It’s been windy but nothing crazy. Weird

Just lost power at my house. Anybody else? It’s been pretty windy but nothing crazy.

I just started my first attending gig as a generalist as the west coast. Liking my job a lot so far but curious as to how things work at other academic places. Not interested in the private vs. academic debate that we’ve had a million times.

Here’s how my setup is: -1.0 FTE -180 days/year of regular clinical work (M-F day shift) -45 calls year - call counts as late shifts, swing shifts, in house trauma/OB, pager call (subspecialties, non-trauma hospital call). Expected to take about half of those as in house night/weekend -I requested to work solo a bunch so i so far do about 50% solo, 50% supervising (mix of residents and CRNAs) -Base pay is around 300k and then we get a small percentage

I’m a CA-2 at a big academic center that went to a big academic center for med school. Before this rotation, I had basically zero experience with private practice anesthesiology. Doing a rotation that is staffed by a well-regarded PP group and holy cow has it been interesting to see. Here are some of my observations:

1. Holy cow the nurses and techs are all nice and helpful. I’ve never had so much help transporting patients (circulator brings patient to OR??), placing IVs (I put in the cannula, nurse immediately takes over and connects like and dresses IV while I go back to airway), putting in monitors, or setting up room.

2. Working with attending surgeons (and sometimes high level fellow

Hey everyone,

I'm a CA-2 who has been interested in cardiac for a long time and I am trying to make my decision on fellowship or not over the next couple of months. I have done 2 months of cardiac so far and it has lived up to my expectations - it's definitely the corner of anesthesia that I am most interested in and excited about. My program is a big cardiac center and we do lots of transplants, MCS, late/overnight cases, etc, which I find super interesting but I don't think I want to do as an attending. Our attendings work way more than I want to, and it's ultimately important to me that I'm home with my wife and family at night instead of in the hospital doing transplants overnight. Rath

Deleted in case there was too much info. Thank you for all the comments and discussion.

Hi everyone,

I am looking for an apistogramma agassizii fire red male, ideally close to fully grown. I have a female in a UNS 60u who I would like to find a male for. I also would love to find some local dwarf cichlid breeders in socal in general, if anyone has any good tips or people they have worked with in the past. Thanks!!

Hi everyone,

I have a 20 gallon (UNS 60U) that I set up in September. It's my 3rd planted tank, so I like to think that I've learned a lot about the hobby and have a good idea of how to provide a good home for my fish, but I just lost my male apisto agassizii fire red this morning. I'm pretty bummed. He was in the tank with a female apisto agassizii fire red, 18 cardinals, 3 ottos, 1 blue-eye bristlenose, and 5 amanos. All of the livestock have been in there for a while now and have previously been doing great. The tank is heavily planted, I do 1/2 RO 1/2 tap water water changes (30% weekly, the 1/2 RO and 1/2 tap is what my excellent LFS uses and I got him from there), and I feed a varied
