Is it though? All data visualization involves choices. Here, starting from the first day of an arbitrary annual calendar; a continuous line would show that the beginning of 2026 looks like the latter part of 2025. Sure. But the point is annual cases in, say, 2023 versus the cases in 2026 to date.

In Kyoto for a ceremony for three friends who have been authorized to teach the historic/foundational shakuhachi repertoire. Have been visiting temples, meeting fellow aficionados, hiking on beautiful mountain paths, with more to come. A wonderful way to celebrate a milestone birthday.

It’s awkward posting for something nominally in my honor but this is really an event to support the large, dedicated, compassionate and transformative team at the Seaver Autism Center. Please support our wonderful team! And stop by if you can!
This was certainly not the main point of the post :-) but I see your point and will try to check with the church next time I am on the square. Will edit the post.

If you thought MAHA was going to at least look at environmental risk in an unbiased way. Nope.

The bell in First Congregational Church in Falmouth, MA was forged in 1796 by Paul Revere. It has been rung over 30,000,000 times. Today the congregation rang it especially for the No Kings event.
Nine years ago I was honored to be inducted into the National Academy of Medicine. But the president of NAM has been so muted about the devastating impact of the current administration on health sciences. I look forward to working with Dr Bertagnolli, the incoming president of NAM, from July 2026.
