We have that here too in the U.S. And the rich always get better access to care here, regardless of insurance. I say that as an experienced RN.

What an incredibly broad and markedly unintelligent comment. Are there nurses who are dumb. There are many "insane and markedly unintelligent" people all over who have various careers.

Size 11 here! I agree...for me about cool jewelry and sweaters. Oh and a great haircut.

Jim Lahey's no knead bread recipe is the bomb! No breadmaker needed, just a dutch oven.

I mainly grew up in CT and could not wait to get the hell out. I live in Philly now. Its not perfect but I love it. However our roads are pure shit. I miss CT roads.

Oral Flagyl and Vanco are first line antibiotic used to treat C.diff. Fecal transplants are used when C.Diff does not respond to these antibiotics. Cdiff is no joke. It can spread like wild fire in hospital, C.Diff spores can remain on environmental surfaces for months.

And if you don't have insurance, that ambulance ride can easily cost $500+. That's just the ride, not even counting the medical care plus hospital bill.

Anything that touches a patient should be sanitized (not sterilized- thats for invasive procedures) prior to patient contact. Alcohol pads don't do much. Most hospitals use hydrogen peroxide or chlorohexidine wipes. As a RN, I have to say nurses, doctors and patient care techs need to do a better job at this.

I clearly remember my Barbie and Ken doll getting it on. A lot.

As a knitter, spinning and weaving are on my new year's resolution list. And use that awesome sewing machine I have.

I don't even understand how this is legal or ethical. And I'm a nurse.

THIS.

She does have some valid points but they get lost. Obesity is a problem, but I think she promotes a very unrealistic image for most women, especially working moms.

Kids on sidewalks is acceptable and legal. Adults on sidewalk are jerks.

Further correction- Philadelphia is in Pennsylvania. Harrisburg is in Pennsyltucky. I say this as a former resident of the Harrisburg area and currently live in Philly.

As they started singing, one of the groomsmen said "Oh shit", you can hear it in beginning of video. He was right, at that point we ladies were crying! I think my brother cried as well. It was such a cool moment on a very awesome day.

Now playing

My brother got married in D.C in May. While taking wedding photos at Lincoln Memorial, the Touchtones from Cornell offered to sing to us. I managed to not cry during the ceremony but not during this.

Another proud Philly girl here! I have nothing more to add than what has already been said. Though, I am getting annoyed with my conservative friends who are insisting there is some media black out. When I tried to point out it has been covered, I was told I am making things up.

I wish it was that simple. I used to get cramps that wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. Cold sweat, yup. Uncontrollable vomiting and diarrhea, yup. Vomiting my pain medicine, yup. Dizziness and fainting, of course. And the pain, well it felt like someone was twisting and squeezing my insides. For years, every

Oiy, that one email in all caps...I couldn't read it, all shouting.
