  1. opinion--no carb diet

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to CPB's topic in General Nursing

    By Sbic56 Quite right....................unless they are trying to make a statement about efficacy/safety of the low carbohydrate type diet as if they are a credible source. Especially in a...

  2. opinion--no carb diet

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to CPB's topic in General Nursing

    It seems that the posters that think low-carb is viable have actual numerical data such as pre and post total cholesterol. The posters that think low-carb is a bad idea seem to have only subjective...

  3. Nurses, Would you go into nursing if you had to do it all over again?

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to 4everpeace's topic in General Nursing

    In fact, I would not go back to the only semester of nursing I was in. If I knew then, what I know now, I would never have considered it an option. I worked alongside nurses as a respiratiory...

  4. What does this mean???

    By CCU Nurse While the patient flops around on the floor like a fish pounding his ripe melon every two seconds, check levels, wait on hold for the doc. Boy.........that's some good book learnin...

    Twarlik, Looks like Geekgolightly has some support for the claim. It's a very wishy-washy policy though, don't you think? At least some nurses got together and thought this one up. To be accurate...

    By Agent My advice is to disregard what a nursing counselor or faculty member says. Talk directly to males in the nursing program you're considering. Contact them independent of the faculty to...

    This thread is not off the topic for the intellectuals taking time for thoughtful rhetoric. The character in question goes deeper than the comical implications, both for the actor playing it and the...

    Heeeeee'sss baaaaaack! Bt Marilyn The Blair Handbook is not making a supposition with the statement...... ..........It is stating it as a fact of standard writing. The very important point...

    By Geekgolightly Thank you very much. I appreciate a mind that can recognize that. And thank you Marilyn. I just wanted to say that I probably won't have time this weekend to respond...

    All, I wanted to express that I'm not trying to be angry or mean. The tone of my posts sometimes give the wrong impression. I'm simply trying to use all those fancy-smancy argumentitive techniques I...

    By Geekgolightly It would only be incorrect in the case of nursing programs that claim neutrality of gender in the vocation. A generic "he" is used when a neutral gender is intended. The Blair...

    Marilyn, The above post about what the text communicated with the use of the incorrect but "right" pronoun "she" is what I meant. I wrote to Marilyn In this example, the text is speaking to the...

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to PlanetCaroline's topic in General Students

    By Geekgolightly There is a distinction between being "right" (making sense) and being "correct" (proper grammar). It is clear that a great effort was made in editing such a text. When a...

    By Geekgolightly I guess that you're inferring that the character had a hard time "fitting in". What is important to public opinnion about the subject is how the movie porytrayed the character. GI...

    Marilyn, Ok, I just got done reading all your posts. I really appreciate that you took the time to communicate your point and had some data to go along with it. Good posts. You said: I can say...

    By Twarlik That's great Twarlik. It's good to see that someone at your school at least seems to care about that issue. At my school, which I attended last year, the proper pronoun "he" was not...

    By Marilyn That's a very serious accusation on this board. Calling someone an idiot, although it happends ocassionaly when someone lets thier emotions get out of hand, would be cause for editing...

    Marylin, You said, Like what? I've been gone for a year and maybe I'm just out of touch, or I never was in touch. I didn't notice any sincere attempts to understand why men seem to be avoiding...

    Marilyn, You don't need support from your peer group because you have no such doctrine as a female. A woman that has placed herself in a job traditionaly filled by a man would be descibed as...

    By Twarlik Schroeder's character was a great portrayal of a nurse that happens to be male, although his character wasn't around long because it wasn't very funny. I had forgotten about "Meet the...

    Peeps Mcarthur replied to Ruby Vee's topic in General Nursing
