One bit of advice....

[microphage]

Buy a UPS(no, i'm not talking about the postal service). A UPS is an Uninterrupted Power Supply. The apartments around the school have been getting quite a bit of brownouts lately. A bunch of computers fried their motherboards, a laptop died about 3 days after the brownout, a brand new TV was damaged etc, The only thing that can protect against brownouts is a UPS. Buy one, bring it down and be glad you did. It costs around 50-60 bucks from newegg.com or you can just head to your local Circuit City or Best Buy to pick one up. Be sure to buy one with at least 500VA and one that connects to your USB port on your computer. The UPS will help shut down your computer if you aren't home and the power on the battery also goes out.

Brownout=>when the power dips too low, the opposite of a surge. A surge protector can't/won't protect against this. It is afterall, the opposite of a surge.

UPS=>sort of like a big battery and a power strip all in one. It will regulate the power so that there are no surges and no dips. when the power goes out, anything connected to the UPS will still be running on the battery so those devices will not have turned off yet. You'll get about 10-20 minutes of power out of that battery. This will give you enough time to shut down your computer and save all your stuff(you can also use it to power a lamp if the power goes out).
They are a bit heavy so plan to have some weight left in your suitcase for it.

DORK! :P

Actually, it's good advice and cheap insurance, too! I stole the UPS outta microphage's old apartment and it's mine all mine (the owners said so!).

Run ... run fast! Block testing is horrible. Definitely, not doing anybody a favor and demoralizing the student body.
That is my advice ... screw the poweroutages ... how bout screw Block testing!
Vent is done ... till next time. :shock:

Well, we could run around circles here on the rock ... but I have a better idea! :idea: All 200 incoming newbies should run out of the airport departure line before it's too late. Then give MEIO a call and ask them to return their deposit ... 200 deposits ... at 1,000 a deposit might make a few heads turn. Besides, anatomy lab is only so big ... I mean come on ... 200 in our lab. Good luck with that!
Vent on! :evil:

700 VA would probably get your more juice and allow you run your equipment longer or more electronics. The biggest drawback is the 700VA weighs alot. (maybe a few more pounds than the 500, but I'm not sure)

I often read in the forums that there are these black outs. How often are they and how do they affect your studying habits.
Thanks

It's not that bad. The school has their own generator so if you study in school, you'll be fine. If you live in Beacon Hill, it's a daily occurance and it signals when you should take a nap. It's not that big of a deal usually, just go study at school if it ever happens.

[Lmaro0]

We live in Cupecoy and the lights go out on occasion-but when it does happen I take it as a sign that my brain is fried and nap time ensues:-) It hasnt forced me to find another study place so dont worry about it. Also the school has generators so if you are in the dorms you are fine.

[anencephalic]

The blackouts in Beacon Hill are inconvenient at times, but not unbearable. They are actually fairly frequent (at least once per week) and usually last about 15 to 30 minutes. On rare occasion, it is out for 5 hours. It went out on me the other evening while studying for neuro, and just as I got my flashlights and candles lit, the power came back on :evil: .
Like other users have said, if it's a concern, go study on campus...otherwise, nap like the rest of us! :D

We bought the battery thing at cost u less for 60 bucks - it's in the first row with the tv's. :)

Also another tidbit of advice - don't have your spouse join the spouse club unless he/she has dogs or children. As soon as they find out you have neither you are axed from their list of inviting you to anything. I heard 8 women tell me the club was a rumor mill/kiddie farm/gossip herd but went to a few events to see for myself, because some people are gossips themselves. In this case it wasn't gossip.

If you are coming to the island with a spouse and need actual help instead of finding out who lives where and who has what and who does this and who hasn't done that please just read these forums for actual useful info (you can get on a little piece of paper at the spouse breakfast with info about the island- as long as you can stand an hour of totally non useful information and endless "do you have dogs do you have kids" drilling). Spouse club is about as useful or informative as the history of medicine class is to a medical education :roll:

[Lmaro0]

The spouse's club sponsor that we were put in touch with helped us out so much when we got here!!! We could have eventually found all of the things that we needed (such as cell phone, grocery store etc) but it was so great to have their help b/c they knew the ins and outs of everything. We dont regularly attend the events b/c I am busy with school but anytime we have gone we have felt completely welcomed.

Please dont discourage prospective students/partners from getting into contact with the club-let them find out for themselves if it is helpful/informative for their situation.

Have a great day!

Thanks for dispelling that, Lindsay...I am sorry that some may feel excluded because they don't have children or pets (as a majority of members do!), however, I am sure that the activities planned by the Spouses' Club are geared to be as inclusive as possible (movie nights, game nights, spouses breakfast, etc.). Spouses may just find it easier in the transition to associate with people with similar interests...that's all. Not everyone in the spouse's club had children or pets or both. If there's something you don't like in the club, be proactive and find a way to get your concerns addressed. You are probably not the only one that has that perception.
It's also a good point that the spouses club does "sponsor" new families to help them get adjusted with life in SXM, a service that many people find invaluable.
As for gossip...it's no different than with the students...

I take it you have a personal issue with the Spouse's Club and it's members. Everybody has their own personal issues but when you make it public, how does that make you any better than the gossipers and such?

My wife and I have no kids or pets or any other pet/child-like devices around(No Sony Aibo or other robotic dogs, but we did have a Poo-Chi when it came out.... We just took out the battery when it annoyed us) and they all seem to treat her ok.

And yes, I agree with Lmar0 and Jon, attend a few events and if you don't find that they are the type of people you'd associte with then fine but don't tell everybody to dismiss them without even knowing them.

[secret.asian.man]

when we came down here blindly our sponsor from spouse's club escorted us from day one and took us around to find a hotel, rental car, stores, apartment, cell phones, etc... for a whole week! we hope we'll be as good as a sponsor as they were. my sponsor don't have kids either...

[JewishDr'sWife]

I'm glad some people got info out of that club, I'm only expressing I did not and had bad experiences. :D

I didn't get any information out of that club that I couldn't get here. All I got was who not to talk to, who is rumored to be pregnant ect ect which I really could care less about and most other new people seemed not interested in that either. My whole experience during each of my interactions was if I was dogless or childless the member would find someone else to talk to. :oops: There was also things said about people who were not even there that I thought was really rude, one of which was my own neighbor that I had come to know. :evil: I got a bad taste in my mouth from both events and do not recommend it for other people, unless you want to be talked about.

There's this bubble above the club that I feel should be popped and it's irritated some people. Then again, some people put a bubble over AUC too until they talk to people there to weigh the good with the bad. To some there are distinct benefits over the downfalls to AUC right? The same can be said for the spouses club. I simply feel there are not benefits to be had as some other members do and that's fine. :)

Maybe it's because we made sure we were set before coming to the island, instead of coming unprepared that makes me not idolize the club. I was looking to make friends and do things on the island with new people. I did not find that at the spouses club whereas others did and that's perfectly ok.

And as for statements for me to shut up/keep my opinions to myself, maybe then everyone should shut up about griping about block testing woes, car troubles, student checks getting screwed up, posts to rant, ect. That club is not flawless and I am putting in my two cents for those who have not gone yet that it's not all that great. Other people have put in there two cents that it is soooo great. I happen to think they just haven't been talked about yet and that's why they have this sunny disposition about the club. Once someone confronts you about a rumor they heard from someone else in the spouses club, perhaps their opinion will change then. So to conclude, I have my experiences, you have yours - don't tell me to keep my opinions to myself and I won't tell you to keep yours to yourself. Thanks.

[SnowRat]

My name is Trisha, and I am the coordinator for AUCs Spouse Club. I personally am very grateful for JewishDrswife's opinions and observations of the spouse club. This is only my second semester as coordinator, and from the beginning, my goal has been to make sure this club serves as many spouses/sig others that need our help. Without criticism, how can we improve ourselves? Thank you for bringing your concerns to my attention. I too have noticed gossip at times, but this is a personality issue of some the members, and something I have been trying to make sure doesn't happen during events/activities etc. Like Jon mentioned.. it's not a characteristic of the club.. it happens with all the students... it's a part of human nature! Still, I apologize for whatever offenses came your way! You should have not been made to feel so unwelcome, and I am sorry!!

Like I mentioned before, this is only the second semester that I've been running the spouse club. In my first semester there were no fundraisers, no preschool, only two activities that I was aware of, and no sponsor program. I have been extremely impressed with the spouses/sig others who have stepped up and volunteered to start a preschool, hold fundraisers, sponsor incoming students, organize activites/events... the display of talents and generosity have been overwhelming at times! Are we a perfect club?? No way... but we are doing good things, and we are doing our best to take care of the spouses/sig others. If we've failed, it's not for not trying! It's good to hear from some of the others above that we have made a difference for them.

So do we discount what JewishDr's wife says.. of course not! She is intitled to her opinions and her feelings are real and just! She observed some negative aspects of the club, and I am glad it has been brought to my attention. The only thing I can disagree with is that the club is only for those with pets or children... I'm sorry that you have this impression! We have a spot open on our activities committee if you would like to take part in helping to plan activities geared more to people that don't have children or pets. Also, we have many spouses who attend kids club events even if they don't have kids... what it comes down to is how involved you want to be and how patient you will be in finding friends among us that have the same interests as you. Am I trying to talk you into the club? No... you mentioned that it's not for you, and that is fine. It may not be for everyone....but to others out there... give us a chance. It's been a great support system for many of us. We are a very diverse group... we've got it all in color, size, religion, station in life, etc...

The spouse club was created to be a support to those who need it. I welcome criticism and praise alike so that we can know how to best take care of each other. And again.. thank you so much to the wonderful spouses who give so much of themselves... I learn daily from you!

Please feel free to contact me in the future with any concerns! I look forward to hearing from any of you that care to write: aucspouse@hotmail.com

Thank you and enjoy the heat, Trisha Snow

PS For those of you who have wondered where I've been...I've had my baby and will return to SXM in a week... sure miss you all!

JewishDr'sWife,
I don't believe that there was anyone that replied to your post that "told you to keep your opinions to yourself". On the contrary, one of the reasons people (yourself included) find this forum so helpful is because it allows multiple aspects of an topic to be presented and allows readers to make their own educated judgements.
I am sure you'll agree that there exists a very tangible difference between fact and opinion. It is a fact that many students performed poorly on the second set of blocks. It is an opinion that the spouses' club has a bubble above its head that needs to be burst.
You've tried it and determined it wasn't for you. At least allow others the privilege of making that distinction for themselves.

ok let me get this straight: you put a dozen women in a group and expect there not be any gossip and talking about people? call me crazy but isn't that the whole bonus of being a woman? its gotta be the socially accepted trash talk, not having to really forgive anyone, gossip marathons! it surely can't be to hang out with us testosterone filled mongrols....

women just aren't happy under any circumstances:

1) you make more money than her she says "the world isn't fair why do you make more than me its a glass ceiling" she makes more money: "you are such a bum, why do i have to support you"

2) she has to work: "i can't beleive i can't stay home and take care of the kids, they are gonna grow up to be criminals" she stays home: "the world isn't fair why should i stay home why can't i work"

3) you want to have sex:"you only like me for my body, you are such a pig" you don't want to have sex: "you don't find me attractive anymore, you are cheating on me"

4) spouses club gossips: "all these women do is gossip and talk why can't we just hang out" they don't gossip: "these women are so boring i can't beleive they just hang out and don't talk why can't we talk about the neighbor who threw a bottle at her husband as he left for biochem?"

women just can't be happy, they have this insane sadistic drive to try and fix crap even when it isn't broken there is some offshoot detail that needs to changed....don't try and understand it fellas all you can do is be aware of it and learn how to ignore it and use the power of the platinum card to your advantage; just give it to her and she will leave you alone.

Ordinarily, I would probably be considered a candidate for the feminazi club, however, I agree with the points that Rich has made. I've heard the same things so many times by my female friends that I'd like to throttle some of them for it. Particularly regarding work/not work, more money/less money. It's enough to drive a sane person batty.

Hope block exams get a little better for all of you.

but two things work in my favor:

1) she doesn't listen to me, this is so profound that when she knows that i'l make one of my trademark sarcastic remarks she will just pull a Bush and not even ask or care what i want
2) she has really bad aim, she's like a T-rex i actually get hit if i run but standing still i may as well be invisible.....

A Look into the Mind of a Woman:

In this life I'm a woman. In my next life, I'd like to come back as a bear. When you're a bear you get to hibernate. You do nothing but sleep for six months. I could deal with that.

Before you hibernate, you're supposed to eat yourself stupid. I could deal with that too.

When you're a girl bear, you birth your children (who are the size of walnuts) while you're sleeping and wake to patrially grown, cute, cuddly cubs. I could definitely deal with that.

If you're mama bear, everyone knows you mean business. You swat anyone who bothers your cubs. If your cubs get out of line, you swat them too. I could deal with that.

If you're a bear, your mate EXPECTS you to wake up growling. He EXPECTS that you will have hairy legs and excess body fat.

Yup, gonna be a bear!
