    In light of the Yankees win, I had to pick a NY City, although this is not anywhere near Manhattan!

    Enterprise is a city in the southeastern part of Alabama in the Southern United States. The population is estimated to be 23,653

    Enterprise is famous for the Boll Weevil Monument, a large monument of a woman holding a Boll Weevil, which is located in the town square. The city erected the statue because the destruction of the cotton crop had led to agricultural diversity, starting with peanuts and more prosperity than had ever come from cotton alone. It is said to be the only statue to an insect pest in the world. Enterprise is also right outside of Fort Rucker, an Army base which is the home of Army Aviation.

    Oxford, MA is my hometown, and while it is considered by many just a "bedroom town" for Worcester, it holds and important place in the field of medicine. It is the birthplace of Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross, and birthplace of Elliott P. Joslin who is considered the pioneer in diabetes. He was the first doctor in the U.S. to specialize in the disease, and this distinction is the first of many “firsts” associated with him. Everyone who works in the diabetes field at some point learns about EPJ. What makes him unique is both his early interest in a little known disease and his vision as to how to treat it.
