Wow...you are on a roll! No argument here though on your points above. The Benghazi crisis was given an absolute pass by this nation due to it was swept under the rug by our nation's "unbiased" media. Could it be a McVeigh-like nut job? Yes. Could it also be Islamic extremists? Yes. If you have an opinion in any way shape or form, you have "rushed to judgement" so some of you need to put down your stones!!!

More random thoughts... Si from Duck Dynasty will overthrow the Bieber as this teenage generation's hearththrob by year's end. How good is Chopped that someone could actually make a 5 star entry out of pig's feet, cream soda, parsnips and Afuegu'l Pitu cheese??? Speaking of "ball drop"...never a pleasant surgery for any young male when one has undescending testicles. Just saying...

This will be the lastest crest of the Red River...EVER. This will be the lastest in the spring that Fargo will register a high of 50...EVER. This month as a great chance of being the coldest April on record for Fargo...EVER. If this is "global warming"...turn up the heat even more please!!!

Nothing like leaving this site to take one's "talents" to over to that intellectual cesspool at USCHO!!!

Hahaha...was waiting for that one!!!

Rumor I heard thru some people in "the know" is that city officials think 38' is a given but 40' is a stretch.

Neither do most hospital/clinic administrators!

Your 1st sentence is key in any discussion involving healthcare.

Or the worship of Allah and wanting to see the destruction of the USA.

And as heard at the local Sr. citizen center..."That's a good a good bingo!"

You think ONE drink is going to help!?!?!?

Trust me...I'm very well aware of this!

And this is why the anology of this thread holds water...and not just at Sanford. RVUs drive the bus and are a "measure" of work done. Doctors are compensated now on RVUs produced times a $$$ given to 1 RVU value. Carrot in front of the nose...produce more RVUs, i.e. see more patient, make more income.

Fargo now taking their flood protection up to 43'. Flood stage is 18'.

Now throw in the fact that most big healthcare systems base their budgets on funny numbers, i.e. RVUs, and not real dollars and thing really get jacked up!!

No doubt...I'm sure as he was spooning Eddie last night they hashed it all out and have a firm grip on the situation!

Obama doesn't use the term "terror or terrorism" in his address to the country yet minutes later a WH source does. 2 bombs go off...more found and an apartment is searched of a person of interest who is Saudi. As 3 lay dead and 140+ are injured I'm sure Obama wanted to pick his words carefully as not to offend anyone?!?!?

Let me try to dumb this down a little bit. If hospital/ clinic system takes/accepts (you pick a #) different healthcare plans and each plan pays a certain $$ amount for a procedure or clinic visit or ect... the "system" will find the highest payment "allowed" from all these plans and set the fee at a penny above as to not leave any money on the table that they could get reimbursed for by any plan they accept. This cause someone without insurance to really get drilled. That's the 101 version.

Spot on with those comments

Just heartbreaking... The total disregard for human life is so disturbing.

Let's call it like it is...guns, bombs, ect...don't cause these senseless tragedies we repeatedly witness but it's the sick, deranged, f-ed people armed with these devices that are the problem.

I'll go with Mafia's above recommendation then...one black and one "Midnight Heather". Coincidently those two words together...in their full literal context...seem to bring back some memories! Just saying... No moniker.

9.5" in south Fargo and still snowing lightly. Buddy in Bismarck said they got 18"+.

You better stop while you are ahead. You are making way too much sense!
