DailyLit.com is an interesting service that takes classic books and chops them up in to bite-sized pieces that you can read in just a few minutes. It then emails you one piece at a time until you finish the book. You can customize how often you get the emails.

I just finished “The Art of Money Getting”, by P.T. Barnum. It has a lot of practical advice, and predates (by 100 years) a lot of what you see these days in self-help books. There are a lot of gems in here, but this is one of my favorite quotes:

Strict honesty, not only lies at the foundation of all success in life (financially), but in every other respect. Uncompromising integrity of character is invaluable. It secures to its possessor a peace and joy which cannot be attained without it–which no amount of money, or houses and lands can purchase.

I can’t wait to figure out what I’m reading next.

I gave the residents a talk on osteoporosis at noon conference on Friday. Here’s the powerpoint slides that I created, in case they might be useful to anyone. They’re licensed under a Creative Commons license and available in 2 formats - ODP (good) and PPT (bad).

Medical information changes constantly, so hopefully these will be useful until at least the end of 2006. I’ve also uploaded slides from previous talks on Abnormal Liver Function Tests and Adult Immunizations.
