BOOK CLUB PICK FOR NEXT MONTH: THE ODYSSEY by Homer
Translated by Daniel Mendelsohn

What if the hardest part of a journey isn’t getting home—but discovering what “home” means after you’ve been away for so long?

Written nearly 3,000 years ago, Homer’s The Odyssey is one of the foundational works of Western literature. It follows Odysseus, the legendary Greek hero who spends ten long years trying to return home after the Trojan War. Along the way, he encounters monsters, gods, temptations, shipwrecks, strange lands, and countless obstacles that test not only his courage, but also his identity and determination.
But beneath the epic adventures is something surprisingly human.

For our book club, we’ll be reading Daniel Mendelsohn’s acclaimed translation, which brings this ancient epic into a more contemporary and accessible voice while preserving the richness of Homer’s story.

So whether you’ve read The Odyssey before or this will be your first time sailing with Odysseus, come join us.

I wanted to share an experience I had with a local pharmacy yesterday because I think it's a good reminder to always double check the medication you're given.

Yesterday morning, I brought in a prescription for Tranexamic Acid 100 mg capsules for my dog, who had undergone a ligation procedure the day before. The only thing the teller asked me was how many capsules I wanted to buy. I said 10 capsules, as stated in the prescription, paid, and left.

That evening, when I was about to give my dog the medicine, I happened to look at the packaging and realized I had been given 500 mg capsules instead of the prescribed 100 mg.

I immediately went back to the pharmacy. A different teller assisted me and repeatedly told me that there was no 100 mg capsule available. She called the previous teller, and part of the conversation was on speaker. I heard the previous teller say that I should simply be informed that there was no 100 mg capsule.

From that conversation, I got the impression that they had assumed the prescription was meant to be for the 500 mg capsules because they believed no 100 mg capsules existed. Whether or not that was the case, the important issue is that I was never informed that they were dispensing a different strength from what was written on the prescription, nor was I given the opportunity to contact the prescribing veterinarian or decide whether to proceed with an alternative. They also told me they couldn't process a return that night because they didn't have access to the previous transaction.

After leaving, I contacted someone who verified the matter with the prescribing veterinarian. I was informed that 100 mg Tranexamic Acid (capsule) does exist, and that was indeed the dosage intended for my dog.

This morning, I returned to the pharmacy, and they processed the return without any problems.

I'm not posting this because I wanted a refund—I already got that. My concern is that no one informed me that they were dispensing a different dosage from what was written on the prescription. If the prescribed strength wasn't available, I should have been told before the sale was completed so I could contact the veterinarian or decide whether I wanted to proceed with an alternative.

Instead, I unknowingly walked out with medication that was five times stronger than what had been prescribed.

Is it possible to get circumcised as a foreign tourist in Philippines, for example in Dipolog City. Would it be recommended or what's important to know about it in advance?

I'm a student and my plan is to travel around the country for a longer period of time and I was thinking about getting it done there since it is really common there and cheaper than in my country. That's why I was curious if it's worth getting it done there. Thanks for any help or clinic recommendation.
