Article: There is another popular pathology text that many med students find useful, Dr. Goljan's Rapid Review. This is a 700-page book that covers basic topics in pathology. It also explores the connections between pathology and other disciplines, such as microbiology. You can also find audio recordings of Goljan's lectures on YouTube and other websites. Some publishers even include free study materials when you purchase Goljan's text from them. After you finish reading a section in your First Aid text, open your Pathoma materials and see where they overlap. This may help you to understand your First Aid lectures or information more thoroughly. After all, both texts can't cover everything, but working with them together will increase your coverage and retention. It's really tempting to focus all of your attention on Pathoma and other study options and completely (or partially) skip your class sessions. This approach can really backfire. Attending the lectures gives you yet another layer of information. Plus, take this opportunity to write down any questions that you have and look these up later. Pathoma should be one of the few resources that you immediately turn to if you have a question even tangentially related to pathology. Force yourself to constantly ask questions about what you hear in lectures or have learned from other study sites. For example, if you aren't familiar with a drug's name, look it up in Pathoma.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Compare or use in combination with Goljan. Compare and contrast information with first aid. Continue to go to lectures. Stay curious.

Problem: Article: Don't eat raw vegetables or undercooked meat or seafood during your travels. Steer clear of shellfish, which can upset your stomach. Make sure that all meals you eat come to you piping hot so you can be sure they've been cooked well enough to kill any bacteria. Be prepared to decline some of the local delicacies, especially if they involve raw fish or undercooked meat. Don't eat leftovers or reheated foods, as these are more likely to be contaminated. Refrain from eating food that's been sitting in a buffet, especially if it contains meat or fish, or if it's been sitting in a sauce for a while. Similar to boiling water, pasteurization involves heating up a dairy product to kill off any harmful pathogens. Avoid drinking fresh or unpasteurized milk, or eating dairy products like cheese or ice cream that have been made using unpasteurized milk. If you can't examine a dairy product's packaging to confirm whether or not it's been pasteurized, stay on the safe side and don't consume it. Washing the fruit in local water will only introduce harmful bacteria. Peel the fruit carefully so the outside of the peel doesn't touch the fruit. Stick with easy-to-peel fruits like oranges and bananas, but avoid fruits like grapes and berries that can't be peeled. Only eat the skin of a fruit if you've thoroughly washed it in treated drinking water. Don't eat pre-peeled or sliced fruits, as they might be contaminated. Avoid watermelon flesh which may have been pumped with extra water to increase its weight. If you're concerned about the quality of the food where it came from, how it's been stored, or how it's been prepared rely on packaged foods instead. Find a local grocery store or market where you can pick up some packaged snacks and meal ingredients. Try simple or familiar foods first, like breakfast cereal, uncooked rice or pasta, dried fruits, and canned vegetables. If you have allergies, dietary restrictions, or sensitive taste buds, make sure you bring or buy enough packaged foods to get you through your trip. If it's served at room-temperature, it may have been sitting out for a long time since it was cooked. While street food might look and smell delicious, it will probably upset your stomach. You can't know for certain how street vendors store or prepare their food, so avoid ordering or eating it. Don't buy or eat any fresh or cooked food from any place that has a lot of flies. Even if you're at an established restaurant, refrain from consuming bottled condiments that may not have been stored properly.
Summary: Eat hot, thoroughly cooked meats, seafood, and vegetables. Refrain from consuming any unpasteurized dairy products. Peel all fresh fruit yourself before eating it. Stock up on packaged foods if you're concerned about locally-prepared meals. Avoid eating food served at room-temperature or by a street vendor.

This is the platform you'll be using to code your new operating system. It's a matter of personal preference, but most people either use Windows or a flavor of UNIX. If you're using Windows, it's a good idea to install a UNIX environment like Cygwin or MinGW. You'll generally want to make sure whatever environment you're using includes the following: GCC (the Gnu compiler). If you're using Windows, you can install it in Cygwin or MinGW. Binutils is a collection of tools used for manipulating object files. Again, if you're using Windows, you can install it in Cygwin. A good text editor. Vim and emacs are commonly used in UNIX environments. Windows users can use Notepad, or check out Notepad++ for a multi-tab upgrade. Perl and/or Python. One or both are recommended for string manipulation. Writing an operating system means you'll likely be creating hundreds (or thousands!) of lines of code. When you're working on revisions, this can get confusing. Some options to check out are CVS, Mercurial, and Subversion. If you don't want to create your own, you can use an existing one like Grand Unified Bootloader (GRUB). If you do feel daring enough to code a bootloader, check out Rolling Your Own Bootloader on OSDev.org. The kernel is the core of your operating system, providing an interface between the user and the computer hardware. There are monolithic kernels and micro kernels. Monolithic kernels implement all the services in the kernel, while microkernels have a small kernel combined with user daemons implementing services. In general, monolithic kernels are faster, but microkernels have better fault isolation and reliability. Begin with small things such as displaying text and interrupts before moving on to things such as memory management and multitasking. You can also try making a simple 16-bit Operating System, instead of taking a big leap. You will not have a full system in two weeks. Start with an OS that boots, then move on to the cool stuff. Rather than rebooting your computer each time you make changes or having to transfer the files from your development computer to your test machine, use a virtual machine application. VMWare is a common option that works with both Windows and Linux, and so is Bochs. Check for potential deadlocks and other bugs and repair them as needed. " You can do this by uploading your tested code to your public repository. This will allow people to test your operating system and report back on any issues they run into. There's an entire community of operating system developers congregating on various forums, including /r/osdev on Reddit and the Software Engineering Stack Exchange. One you've gotten a grasp on developing a basic operating system, read existing posts to see what kind of things come up during the development process.
