    What caught your attention in the world today?

    nursej22 replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I suspect we have a different definition of what a radical is. My skepticism about the details of this encounter is because the reporting seems sketchy, based only on her account. Yeah, the...

    Good morning. Dh was groaning already about the Mariners. They seem to be on again, off again with their level of play. I have to think the cold weather has a lot to do with it. I've thought...

    Would appreciate help from a public health nurse!

    nursej22 replied to StephB0812's topic in Public, Community Health

    My experience is much like monz1987. I also used to field calls from provider offices about appropriate treatment for LTBI and interpreting TSTs and QFTs. We would sometimes make home...

    The Tennessee speaker of the house, who voted to expel 3 legislators, may be breaking the law by living out side of the district he represents:...

    My daughter has decided to run again for her school board seat, partly to push back against this trend to pull public funds into private/charter schools. Even though she has received death threats...

    Hi. Quiet day. Sis came over to use our internet because hers has been down for a week. She had a televisit with the geneticist so she can be tested for the same abnormality that I have. This will...

    Easter Sunday March 9 2023

    nursej22 replied to Joe NightingMale's topic in Daily Diary's Entries

    We went out to brunch this morning, dh and my 3 adult children. It was pretty fancy--they had these huge shrimp, oysters on the half shell, albacore tuna, and some sort of white fish. Dh and the boys...

    Nice editing job. You left out "sort of", the qualifier that says this case was not exactly like the Smollett case. Per your article, the video was taken or provided by Gaines. When I watch it, I see...

    I don't believe I said that media waits for all facts before reporting. Responsible media reporting on an apparent crime would get a statement from the police, all parties involved, and witnesses. The...

    Gray and rainy here too. And windy. The weather app says 50 but it feels like 43. I tried to go for a run, but the wind exhausting. We are leaving soon to tour a daffodil farm. And then I'll come home...

    nursej22 replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    You are comparing what happened to Ms. Gaines to the Jan 6 attack on the capitol? That's quite a stretch. Perhaps less biased media won't cover a story that is based on accounts from the victim,...

    The language used in this article hyperbolic and histrionic, leading me to believe there is a great deal of exaggeration. Using terms like mob, stormed, violently accosted, or ambushed are meant to...

    Seeking Tuberculosis Public Health Nurses

    nursej22 replied to allcatsRgoodkitties's topic in General Nursing

    Public Health nursing can be very rewarding, but also frustrating because of limited resources and trying to overcome health inequities. The hours are nice and I had nice benefits. Pay was quite a bit...

    I just retired from a local health department in Washington State, so I can offer my experience. We had a union, and we worked 8 hour days, Monday through Friday. Overtime was rare, and needed to be...

    nursej22 replied to Joe NightingMale's topic in Daily Diary's Entries

    I had a decent night's sleep, for once. Perhaps it was from walking up and down a hill, in a cold wind and rain sprinkles, where the fruit nursery was, as we did our tour. It was more interesting than...

    Okay, to a point. I still think that rather than an overarching ideology, there are several groups who have coalesced under the Republican banner. Groups like evangelicals, corporatists, and yes,...

    OK, but I don't think Joe Farmer who lives just down the road from me is following an ideology when he votes Republican. I think he wants lower taxes, less government oversight, and wants to keep his...

    I will venture to say the far left or far right ideologies don't really exist as organized systems. They are merely talking points used by politicians, pundits and media. The Democratic Party at...
