Proud of our cub scouts! Spent our Sunday afternoon collecting food for Neighborhood House, St. Paul, Mn! Our neighbors did not disappoint in their generosity!

I will continue to treat my scouts the way they deserve with compassion, respect, & kindness. I will continue to address my scouts with their preferred names and genders.

Pentagon and Scouting America reach deal to keep ties after Hegseth's anti-DEI push The Pentagon has made a deal with Scouting America that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says would maintain their century-old partnership but refocus the organization away from “woke” policies.

Disappointed with Scouting America.

As an Eagle Scout and Cub Scout leader, we need to do better for our scouts.

Scouts in our pack care about each other and our leaders will continue to foster a culture of belonging.

So a Function Health ad same across a timeline…

Love getting my ECG & my spirometry from my standard blood panel… 🤦🏼‍♂️

Yes, lets list panels of tests on one side & list out each of the individual tests in those panels on the other…

What is the cost incurred by the false positives?

Now you just need Hellebuyck to play that well for the Jets!

I was intermittently watching it when I was seeing patients so I saw only a few moments…

I may have shouted “no!” Loudly when I thought Canada was going to score in the end of the 3rd… thankfully my patient was sedated so they were not startled

Yes…Agreed.

Both men’s and women’s games were exceptional!

Megan Keller's OT goal lifts U.S. past Canada for Olympic gold Megan Keller scored the golden goal in 3-on-3 overtime as the United States women's hockey team won Olympic gold after beating archrival Canada 2-1.

Amazing win by US Women’s hockey! Canada played their hearts out. Heck of a game!

USA vs. Canada is the women's Olympic hockey rematch everyone was waiting for How did both teams get here? Who are the players to watch? We break down some of the storylines as the two powers in women's hockey are set to go head-to-head for gold.

Excited for the Women’s Hockey final today!

Congrats to my fellow U of Minnesota Med School grad, Regina Martinez, on being a boss & representing Mexico in the Winter Olympics!

She is a wonderful human. Volunteered alongside her providing child care to essential workers during COVID.

She’s a solid human, went to med school with her and volunteered together.

Road to Hana was great! Thanks for the recommendation! Birding not great due to rain but first time here so even the Common Myna is enjoyable 😂

Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Lyric Video) YouTube video by Bruce Springsteen

It would be a real shame to just play Bruce Springsteen‘s new song “Streets of Minneapolis“ on repeat all day long to ensure that it becomes the number one song in the country… 😉

St. Peter police chief intervenes, prevents federal agents from arresting resident The police chief of St. Peter intervened to prevent federal agents from taking a local resident who was observing ICE enforcement actions into custody. It is believed to be the first time local police...

“He tells the agents not 2 search her car because they don't have a warrant & it would be an illegal search. The agents appear dismissive of his constitutional concerns.”

Our government - “I'm not getting into the legality of everything"

Proud to join ~500 other MN docs in signing on to this @nejm.org piece.

Proud of my colleagues. Proud of Ben Trappey for signing his name to it and taking the inevitable heat from some quarters.

Stand up and be counted 💪🏼💪🏼

I hate to share a Facebook video but @glaucomflecken.bsky.social isn't posting here lately and this seems useful.

I hadn't thought of adding baby shampoo to the water when flushing pepper spray from the eyes. Makes sense but can't find evidence for it.

Any other eye/ER docs with advice?

Haha good. We would like for you to continue to have said shelter
