    Sure. Every autistic kid is getting ABA therapy with slaps and a cattle prod. Please stop talking.

    And yet she died 34 years after she discovered it.

    I have a question: Is the problem with new technologies the cost? Is there something safer (not talking about technologies that might be obsolete in a decade due to supply concerns) but we’re not taking the steps because of the money factor?

    Thank you! This is why I come to Gawker.

    I loved that scene. And while I don’t find that show funny, there was one where they challenge that professor with a lisp to a series of sports challenges in order to win an office. My son, who hates sports of any kind, was dying of laughter.

    Just look at today’s news. Syria is undergoing a siege where people are literally starving to death.

    No, he would have been a terrible king. He’s a good ADVISOR. As a king, you need the perception of strength in a theocracy, otherwise you’re doomed.

    Well, Tyrion is a better ruler, but no one lets him rule for long. Right now he’s adrift, probably never to rule again.

    Kathleen Kelly? Is that you?

    I can’t entirely quit Facebook, but the formatting makes it virtually excruciating to wade through. Somehow everyone has latched on to this “TASTY” blog or some such that shows videos of someone cooking the unhealthiest things in america (layer cheese, butter, cheese, then dough from a can, then sprinkle sugar and

    Hospitals will spend millions of dollars building a custom-built EMR, only to find that they can’t import outside records from doctors’ offices due to programming limitations.

    As someone in healthcare, you have no idea how much fraud there is out there. Hospitals and Medicare actively keep it quiet, but it exists and it costs millions upon millions.

    It’s intriguing, in light of what possibly happened at the French Drug Trial that killed six. (six?) I think the danger is a cytokine storm when you mess with the immune system in this way, although my science could be off. Anyone want to comment?

    I live in LA, and people who say that they miss the seasons mystify me. You miss...what exactly?

    Same thing happened to Sally Field.

    I got my Ph.D in the hard sciences, and in graduate school, I had a kid. Cue the Dean of Students telling me that it meant I didn’t REALLY commit to science. My PI told me to quit and be a mother. I should have known then what I was in for, but at the time, I internalized it and thought they must be right, and they

    This is making me so depressed. I’m not actually in tech, or supposed to be in tech, but they fired the CIT, and made this incompetent (male) boob the CIT, and basically I’m his “assistant”, but in many respects, I know more than he does by osmosis, practice, and time. Guess who gets twice the salary of the other,

    I searched for this comment specifically just so that I can pat you on the back and tell you how right you were. YOU WERE RIGHT. All the comments in this thread should take a hard look at themselves and the premise of “INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY.”

    I keep thinking she’s the person from Father Of The Bride.
