Asta Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Just throwing it out there: if we need to fundraise to get a better server or something, I'd support that. This community has helped me so much, I'd give something back (keep in mind I am a student). See you all in a week - SPRING BREAK!!!!!!!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1428 Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 yeah that is true None of the moderators have it now that he has moved around over the last few years Do we need to contact Ian Wong?

future_doc Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 obviously we are not fully back yet though, but we are pushing rmorelan, it is essential that you have equal authority to Ian as Administrator. Something I suggested ages ago but it is critical. I missed our home sooo much and am willing to make a financial contribution to ensure this episode does not continue to repeat itself. Having said this, it is noteworthy that Lee, Adminstrator of http://www.studentdoctor.net went out of his way to accommodate us premed101.com guys and he even set up a new Canadian Section for us. We owe Lee and studentdoctor.net a Huge Thank You for all their amazing help and support. ALSO, guys you should know that ww.studentdoctor.net is our default website in case of breakdown again. They are not trying to compete with or copy us, merely to support us in our time of need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
future_doc Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Until I can, PM me at http://www.studentdoctor.net under username of futuredoc1004 and all should set up an account there now just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehumanmacbook Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 It's just one problem after another this year. Evidently I owe Mac more money, and somehow my bursary amount isn't showing up. *flips desk* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychoswim Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 3 midterms out of 7 done.. head/thorax/cardiovascular anatomy Monday, then physiology & genetics the week after. Can't wait for March break!! I went back to the gym this week (obviously no work on the left side). So nice! And I can tie my hair up (with contortions) and put loose shirts over my head haha. We're working on getting my shoulder range of motion back in physio and it seems to be moving along nicely. I missed pm101, but certainly was more productive during that time! (seeing as I don't really enjoy sdn I was just off my computer more) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(seeing as I don't really enjoy sdn I was just off my computer more) Oh you're going to enjoy the break -- very well deserved! On another note, I have spent quite some time this week thinking about life and what I want out of it. Maybe I am crazy, but sometimes I think that it's important to realize how often we say "I want" in a given day. Yes, I want to be accepted into medicine. Yes, I want to travel to Paris and Tokyo. And yes, I want to get married one day, and possibly own a special pet in the future. And I wish so badly I could have my Jasmine back. But, somewhere in the midst of past and future wishes, there lives the present. And I'm sad to say that I've nearly forgotten about today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a "want list" as well obviously (like finding a significant other that's right for me and getting a house and pet too), but I do try to live in the present and take pleasure of each day as it passes. Otherwise you wake up one day and realize you've wasted years of your life aiming for some goal that lasts too little time. I think this applies to med school as well... The process to get to med school, to get to residency is just as important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
future_doc Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Every today is the road upon which we build our future. And it is important that we try to enjoy our todays, after all our tomorrows today will be our todays tomorrow. Live in and enjoy the present as we build for our future.

<abstract> Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Yay for reading week! I have successfully slept in for two days in a row! (that hasn't happened since the christmas break!).. Well, starting tomorrow I am getting back on the study schedule, but at least there is no pressure this week, which is a nice change. Great to see PM101 back.. although SDnet is nice, it is just not the same! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tooty Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Other than this site I don't have a way of contacting Ian Wong - which is obviously I bit silly I am not sure if this is why it restarted but eventually I tracked down the hosting company and pushed up the food chain to the someone I could actually convince there was as issue. obviously we are not fully back yet though, but we are pushing What was the issue Rob? It has been down quite a few times now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmorelan Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 What was the issue Rob? It has been down quite a few times now. looks like a complete server crash to me - hard to be completely sure without the logs. It appears the mysql server is up and running (good) but the table holding PM was corrupted in the crash (bad). The table can likely be repaired, or at least a backup and restore it but that will have to wait. I tracked down the server the site is run on, tranced back to the admins and requested support for the failure. Sorry that took so long - I am on gen surg right now and thus a bit sluggish. 12 hours after the request the system started working again - could be just coincidental but seems unlikely. I have sent additional requests regarding PM but I suspect that is a higher level repair than I can get to as an outsider. I have requested they make direct contact with Ian as without PM we are a bit cut off! Overall I think the system has become increasingly unstable - there are a variety of reasons that could be going on but such system tends to without repair become more unstable with time. I am sure however we will cut that off before it becomes an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerena Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 do share! flashchat later? sorry I missed your message last night! Hmmm wondering how much to divulge but basically, today showed me the importance of working with a medical team to make such important, ethical decisions, but still being a leader as a physician. You are not alone (just like the MJ song). And sure thing! FC later sounds great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
