Pee Med Pre Med

2021.8 by Elleen Xue When the crystal ball isn’t so clear . . . . . . one looks to the murkiness in the sphere. Having one foot in the eastern hemisphere and one foot in the western one, in real time, afforded me a unique view of the pandemic. I know, I know, you have read a trillion articles on the pandemic (and here I take the liberty of using hyperbole by exaggerating by orders of magnitude the numbers of cases of the crown prince pestilence) but alas I digress… Just how was it that data...

I suspect this is the case because the idea of “selection” quite naturally conjures...

The Founder's Notes:

Nov 2019 by Elleen Xue Beware the dreaded Mei ban fa in Chinese, whose mere utterance is experienced like a punch in the stomach, and is among the most dreaded of expressions in the Mandarin language. But the saying is more than just words; it expresses a requisite lack of emotion and learned helplessness, or acceptance of fate that my parent’s generation seems to have embraced from their parents, and an attitude my generation abhors, but can understand. Mei ban fa roughly translates to...
