Hey congrats! Yes, you can carry your title without a license. Of course you can't perform any medical practice of equal qualification unless you're licensed. It's only a title you use on a resume for an overqualified position like nursing. You won't be able to (legally) obtain a job as a pharmacist or anything. You also don't need a license for medicinal research.
Er this is only for Ontario, Canada. It's different every state/province in NA, and I don't know about European nations |

In the US, licensing is a state-by-state issue for medical doctors, lawyers, pharmacists, and other professional classes. In order to practice, one must have a license (which is requires pain-in-the-ass hoops to jump through in an obnoxiously different way from state to state).

Anyway, who know where can I get brass star-shaped cufflinks? I have this habit of refusing to wear any other shape other than stars when I go 100% formal.

I don't think there usually is a requirement to even display which kind of doctor you are.
Most still carry the 'med.', 'rer. nat.' and so on, because it makes sense, but I see enough places where the title is just 'Dr.' |

I got a question regreading Facebook. There is a certain person in my friendlist, who is posting a lot, and on top of it, its only useless trash. I dont want to see his blog entries, but does not want to unfriend this person.
Is that possible?

I have just went to a "prepatory" Japanese Martial Arts class (Kendo and Judo) yesterday with a friend's sister, and I find that there is alot of rotework seemingly emphasised in practicing martial arts.
As compared to the CCTs I have learned in the army, which emphasises alot on "waste no time, strike to kill/maim", I do agree that constant training and practice is required to learn martial arts, however I find that going through the same movements and using only 1-2 moves every situation utterly ridiculous, alongside the ideas of opening stance, defensive stance, etc. Is it right to convince her out of signing up for the class? I have a feeling that these classes are just "fake to earn cash" roteplay and have insufficient all-out sparring to meet with the real deal of street fighting.......I don't think I want to recommend her for the more physically intensive and dangerous Krav Maga.

Is it purely for self-defense? Or just physical fitness advantage? As i watch many of university club of martial arts, many of them just focused on physical exercise with little "intention" of street fighting... Well a quote by Bruce Lee's wikipedia page: Quote:
My advice is discuss with her. If she just want a physical fitness benefit, then no problem. But if she wants a real street fighting technique, direct her to something else... |

Being a victim of bullying in the past, all these karate, taekwondo, judo seem more and more like a set of money-wringing sessions to me (except for Krav Maga, kungfu/taijiquan, Silat demos I have been to - they really take shit seriously). What is the use of learning all these techniques that don't emphasise on keeping your opponent down or make him bleed? Quote:
Since she isn't the sports type, I have asked her to repel those guys by bringing her BL manga to school (she's a dirty little fujoshi), or by calling her brother onii-chan to induce him to escort her to school. But she doesn't want to ruin her image to her classmates, or she wants anything to do with her "useless brother who is only interested in plastic girls" (show some respect girl, your brother is an ex-Guardsman!). Plus that annoying little thing is insistent that my suggestion of "kick between the legs and punching the Adam's apple as hard as you can" isn't enough - I told her to ask her brother again since that guy was trained how to kill people with his bare hands, and had acquainted with plenty of people who had tons of experience in streetfights during his army days.

And as you know, arts require lots of training and their goal is to perfect style , techniques and execution. The border between martial arts, dancing and gymnastics is blurred. |

But if we're talking practicality, in most cases of confrontation you're not going to have the opportunity to utilize your skills. If someone pulls out a gun, it's as good as over; even someone large enough, strong enough, and/or more experienced in fighting, would be able to overpower most people who had trained in martial arts.

1) Debit card - requires account at bank. 2) Secured credit card - requires a deposit held that equals the worth of the card (e.g. $300 for a $300 limit). 3) Some Paypal or Google money equivalent (which may be difficult in itself without bank or cards). Outside of that... not happening most likely, see option zero.
