General
Playing piano, cooking, writing, photography (including underwater and 3-D), doing random acts of kindness, Hanging out with my pets, studying (I haven't found a subject in med school I didn't like), and drawing. I like virtually everything outdoors (skiing- downhill, horseback riding- Jumping and more...Dressage, hiking, climbing, swimming, cycling, running, inline skating- especially umping stairs, volleyball, ultimate frisbee, camping, orienteering, etc.). less | My Tunes
Anything goes as long as it's not heavy metal, hard rock, rap or hip hop. My favorite artists include Yanni, Enya, Depeche Mode, Erasure, Doctor J. (Austrian artist), Belinda Carlisle, Men at Work, Sting, The Police, Celine Dion, Phil Collins, Art Garfunkel, Mannheim Steamroller, Andrew Lloyd Webber, more...Windham Hill artists, Peter Gabriel, Steven Wiseman, PInk Floyd, and tons of random acoustical mixes. I also have a couple of Monty Python CD's, but I only play those as a joke. hmmm. Might be a fun thing to put to a slide show here! less | My Movies
Between work and medical school, I have very little time for movies and Television. Some of my favorite movies are Lord of the Rings, Men in Black, Duma, Whale Rider, Billy Elliot, Running Brave, Lorenzo's Oil, The Power of One, The Sixth Sense, Dante's Peak, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Finding more...Forrester, Secondhand Lions, The Terminal, The Aviator, Forrest Gump, and Finding Neverland.
When I do watch television, I tend to gravitate toward family viewing. I hate reality television, except for Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. I generally watch things on Discovery, History, The Learning Channel, and Discovery Health. On the show end of things, I like Babylon 5 (the ultimate space epic), The Dead Zone, Battlestar Galactica, Strong Medicine, ER (it's improved lately), JAG, NCIS, Numbers, Smallville, and Everwood. less | Love to Read

My greatest joy is helping others. I am currently working in research and putting myself through medical school in hopes of volunteering for Doctors Without Borders one day.
I hope as many people as possible will participate in the 12 Days Program that is the topic of one of my videos (featured by LiveVideo a year ago). The more people involved, the better. So watch the video, add it to your favorites, add it to your channels, and share it with your friends!
Kindest Regards,
CircaRigel

| | Monday, February 18, 2008 at 4:32 PM | | I'm trying to see how I can add my own music to my music channel, so please stay tuned. I will announce it when it is up and running. In the meantime, you can access my music at my music MySpace at the following link: CircaRigel Unplugged
On other news, I've created some code that allowed me to add one of my "Starring You" JibJab videos to my LiveVideo channel. I hope you like it. The original code wasn't compatible with LiveVideo, so I had to tweak it a but. The JibJab video is on the header of my video page more...as well as in the "Who Is" section of my profile page less | |
| Sunday, December 9, 2007 at 6:54 PM | | Once again, if you send out mass bulletins that are totally pointless, I will delete you. I like to be able to see what all my friends have to post, not post after post of pointless drivel (spam). That's not what the bulletin system is for. | |
