Is there a neurosurgeon who has hir own surgical facility where the doctors are making the decisions about who can and cannot get care? Because usually that sort of thing is handled by hospital administrators. And that is why the "we don't want to let anybody get between you and your doctors" argument by anti-health care reformers is a bogus argument.

As far as the part of the column on Medicaid, I then don't know what to think. I can't believe that all or almost all Portland Oregon neurosurgeons are money-grubbers who make it impossible for the poor to get a brain operation. But despite ideas I've previously batted around,...

Though the public too often thinks their chief duties are to find pillows and ferry soft drinks, the primary duty of the nation's more than 90,000 flight attendants is to ensure the safety, health and well-being of passengers. With up to 2 million people on roughly 25,000 domestic flights daily, an attendant somewhere in the skies over the USA is dealing with an incident each day. Many can be matters of life and death. And their responses...

I do notice when I've been playing a lot, my dreams often trend toward the "epic." The whole night will end up being a series of interrelated quest-type dreams. Like you, they aren't directly related to the game or its characters. It actually happened last night after playing Nostalgia on the DS for a few hours before I went to bed.

I did post a link to that effect, but I am skeptical it is just a misunderstanding, especially after reading what erwins wrote, from which I gathered that there may not be such a clear cut-off. I think a simpler explanation is that Kristof took...

If it shows changing patterns (or whatever - I don't not know nuffin 'bout brains) then surely that would indicate awareness on some level. Maybe, but as I said earlier, they probably did a lot of things like this in the first weeks, or months, and during this time he may actually have been in a...

I was both nauseated and quite frustrated that I wasn't well enough to clean anything--and I was desperate to clean something. Anything. Everything. This will be a force for good in my...

Not a dream as such, but after playing far too much Ocarina of Time I do recall driving through some of our more rural areas and spotting the similarities - not just me, Mrs L as well. That looks like... Yes I was thinking that too.

After all that time waiting for appointments, the rheumatologist seems to feel I don't have psoriatic arthritis. He thinks I have spondylitis or lupus. We had been pretty sure something autoimmune was going on, so I'm pretty sure he's right. I've looked at the symptoms, and it seems like lupus is the more likely option. Does anyone know anything that can help? He told me not to worry, and I don't have an appointment...
