This is uncharacteristic of the loving couple the public has come to know and love and their fans are already sharing their sadness at the news. Here’s what he posted so far this morning, starting about 20 minutes ago.

Why to List Diabetes Management on Your Resume

Image
Brett Griswold Optimistic and opportunistic diabetes advocate. Managing diabetes is a skill. It takes practice, focus, patience, and time to improve. But, as much as you will improve, chances are that you will never be perfect. There are simply too many variables such as pump site failures, not rapid enough insulin, and misleading food labels that are working against you. Perfect diabetes management is an unrealistic goal that will leave you disappointed quite often. Rather, I think it is more helpful to focus on problem solving and learning how to achieve in range blood sugars more often than not. By focusing on problem solving and how to get consistent blood sugars you may become a more optimistic person because your focus is forward thinking, instead of dwelling on the unchangeable past. So many of us spend too much time beating ourselves up over what went wrong. “My blood sugar is 300, I shouldn’t have had that piece of cake!”

OPEC losing force on oil market control

Image
The Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) is gradually losing its force and control on the oil market. The collapse of oil producers meeting in Doha, Qatar was a worrisome signal because the presence of the organisation’s leader, Saudi Arabia, couldn’t make a difference. Although the organisation counts 13 countries among its membership, but Saudi Arabia has long reigned as a first among equals, coming handy whenever there was need to intervene in the global oil market especially at periods of low oil. Saudi Arabia produces about 10.2 million barrels per day (bpd), which is about a third of OPEC’s total output, and about 11 per cent of world supply.
