Beirut, March 22, 2013:
“One Blood” by Hady Sy: Unity in Diversity
The “One Blood” exhibition by Hady Sy is a vibrant praise of life and tribute to blood, the universal principle of life which unites all men despite their differences.The meaning behind “One Blood” lies in one of Hady Sy’s more pertinent than ever humanist messages: we are all alike on the inside, the same powerful human bond runs in our veins, regardless of our lifestyle, language, shape, race, religion, colour and heritage; and no matter how different we all are, our blood is one and it saves lives.
The “One Blood” project kicked off on June 14, 2011, on World Blood Donor Day.
In figures, “One Blood” is: 546 portraits, people 18 to 93 years old, 393 blood bags, 153 blood drops, 8 blood groups, 153 businesses, 161 origins/nationalities, 140 beliefs, 79 countries/localities, 276 places of birth/homes, 467 first names, 182,000 miles and 102 flights.The “One Blood” installation was first exposed as a preview at the Festival of photo journalism “Visa pour l’Image” in Perpignan in September 2012, before its official launch in Beirut today and its projected world tour which will start with Paris on June 14, 2013, on the occasion of World Blood Donor Day.

Preaching to the Choir
In many of my study tips posts, I suggest breaking up study time so that it’s easier to get through.
Today I realized that I am horribly out of practice when it comes to study marathons.
I’m taking Step 3 next week (as wordsthatididntsay said to me recently, “Didn’t you just take Step 2 like 13 minutes ago?” Nope, it was a year and a half ago.). I’m trying my darndest to get through the 41 practice cases I got, and y’all, it’s killing me. I’m on case # 20 and I feel like I’ve been reading these things for weeks (even though it’s really only been like 3 days).
So I told myself, hey, read 2 cases, play a game of Ruzzle. Read 2 cases, check Tumblr. Read 2 cases, go pee. Y’all know how it goes. I did the same thing while going through 1000 practice questions on USMLE world over the past month or 2. But since starting residency, apparently my attention span has reduced itself to approximately 8 minutes. It’s pitiful y’all.
I’m really not sure how I managed to read 10-12 hours a day just 4 years ago.
Anywho, I’m pretty sure I’ve way overstepped my 10 minute break.
Step 3: T minus 4 days.
If I can just stick with my gut answers and manage my time well, I’ll be fine. Supposedly this is the easiest of the steps.
