we are people too . well , some of you are good doctors and good people , certainly . the problem is that the bar has gradually eroded , both for entry into the profession and for educational upkeep as a longtime member . we ' ve got a family quasi - friend who ' s a primary care physician because it ' s what her parents wanted her to do . she hates people , especially sick people , and heaven help you if you wind up with her as your primary provider . my previous physician for several years was an older gentleman named dr . inger . he had an index finger as large as a polish sausage , with a huge gouty - looking knuckle to boot , and he gave me a thorough anal prostate exam with it every time i visited him as a healthy 30 - something for some four years . eventually he moved clinics , and my new doctor just laughed at me as i dutifully dropped my trousers when i first met him . he says they ' ve been doing it as blood tests for years . to be honest , as a relatively healthy white male i ' ve had comparatively few trips to the doctor , but every single one of them could be categorized as either " they had no idea what was wrong with me " , or " they referred me to a specialist whom , had the law and / or insurance regulations been different , i could easily have sought out on my own . " yes , my data is all anecdotal . but i think the health - care industry needs a change . primary care physicians seem to be rapidly becoming a thing of the past , like leeches or itinerant dog barbers . why not replace them with non - m . d . interviewers - - nurses , say - - who can route you either straight to the pharmacist or to a specialist ? if diagnosis is that inaccurate , then we don ' t need doctors doing it . we need algorithms , group - decision panels and other ( multiple ) sources looking at the input data . a single doctor is simply too fallible , no matter how well - intentioned he or she might be . the system is broken . | 1,337,228,471 | 1 | worldnews |

i guess that is what i ' m asking . is richness in the pet rock scenario earned , or imposed , or randomly instilled , or a different word altogether . i ' m asking if the takeaway is that society is more responsible than the individual for the individual ' s wealth . if this is so , then why is this so ? also , the reason i pointed out that i don ' t want to come across like a dick is because i know this is a subject where it is difficult to ask clarifying questions without accidentally sounding accusatory , and that isn ' t my intent . | 1,337,228,654 | 1 | politics |
here ' s a quote from wiki about pompeii : giuseppe fiorelli took charge of the excavations in 1860 . during early excavations of the site , occasional voids in the ash layer had been found that contained human remains . it was fiorelli who realized these were spaces left by the decomposed bodies and so devised the technique of injecting plaster into them to recreate the forms of vesuvius ' s victims . this technique is still in use today , with a clear resin now used instead of plaster because it is more durable , and does not destroy the bones , allowing further analysis | 1,337,228,659 | 3 | HistoryPorn |

i never had any completely identifiable feelings of wanting to be female but i did have extremely powerful feelings of being wrong as i was . i was not aware there were options to become anything other than the male i was supposed to be based on the physical gender of the body i was born into . i didn ' t grow up with female friends or siblings so opportunities to explore that realm were close to nil . i was pretty close to being permanently depressed throughout this entire stage of my existence but once again i accepted that as the norm as i was ignorant of any type of alternative . once i finally reached the point where i could fully explore and resolve my sense of ' otherness ' the clues rapidly accumulated pointing toward the inevitable and monumentally liberating revelation of being transgender . therapy and low dosage estrogen only hrt would definitely give you a deeper understanding of your status and make a good base on which to build further plans . very best wishes . | 1,337,228,321 | 2 | asktransgender |
all right man , here ' s how it goes . there is no danger of you getting in trouble for just buying a vape off the internet . you only need to worry about your end , which is going to be tricky with parents around . what i ' d say is buy whatever it is you want ( probably an mflb if you ' re looking for a vape , they ' re relatively cheap and very discreet ) off a site that specifies that they ship discreetly - - vapeworld . com is one i used , they advertise on r / trees and seem like overall good people . try to schedule delivery so that it will come when you know you ' ll be there - - maybe pay for rush shipping to ensure it arrives on a day you ' ll be home early . aside from that , you could see if your local head shop has any for sale , though they ' ll probably be overpriced . that ' s all i can think of . happy vapin ' | 1,337,228,682 | 6 | saplings |

yeah , that ' s usually how it works - you get into it after a lot of things have already been established and there isn ' t much you can do to make it consistent . i think it ' s a good idea to adopt some standards going forward , regardless of the standard you pick . order . orderid does seem redundant when it is a primary key , but when i design a schema , i like to use the same name for members of a primary / foreign key relationship . if i want to make a relationship to the order table in a different table , i will name that column differenttablename . orderid , keeping the context of what table that foriegn key references in the colomn name . if i used order . id , i wouldn ' t be able to do that . for example , how would i add a foreign key to the customer table ? if you are following that model , you would have customer . id , but in the order table you would need to use order . customerid or something similar since order . id is already in use . it ' s really just a preference , though . i am primarily a dba / sql developer . i do get into the software side of things occasionally , but most of my development time is spent in sql . | 1,337,228,683 | 2 | SQL |

is this a history assignment from school ? : p ok . i ' ll give it a shot . militarism : this part reflects the massive buildup of arms and armies in the decades leading up to the first world war . after germany ' s unification in 1871 at the end of the franco - prussian war , germany became the owner of the largest land army in europe . in order to compete , other nations , such as russia , france and england began to build up their armies . in addition there was the deadnought arms race between germany and england as both sides attempted to build bigger and bigger ships to beat each others . this was much like the cold war missile buildup . these arms races made the war much larger then it might have been . alliances : in order to defend themselves from germany the nations of europe formed alliances with each other , often in very complex ways . this often resulted in nations which had little animosity towards each other getting involved in other nations problems . the best example is the alliance which got france into the war . france was allied with russia who was allied with serbia . when the crown prince of austria got assassinated the austrians declared war on the serbs , the germans joined in , russia declared war on the both of them and france then jumped in to help russia . england got involved because the germans decided to go through belgium . nationalism : this part can be explained in a number of ways . first of all you have the serbian nationalists who , with their ties to russia , helped kickstart ww1 by committing an act of terrorism in order to get serbian independence from the austrian empire . you also have germany who felt the need to prove superiority against the french and the english . you see some elements of this in the arms race . basically the germans were proud to be german and wanted tell everybody that . this nationalism comes back later during ww2 . imperialism : this really explains why germany was spoiling for a fight . because it had unified so late in the game germany had almost no overseas colonies . these overseas colonies were massive sources of income for the countries that had them and thus the germans want to get some . germany hoped that by defeating france it could potently be able to get some of france ' s colonies . assassination : this is the spark that lit the powder keg . serbian nationalists , who wanted independence from austria decided to assassinate the crown - prince of austria - hungary . they managed to do so ( more out of luck then anything else ) and the austrians , convinced that serbia was behind the attack , declared war on serbia . then , as explained above , everyone else got involved and ww1 started . | 1,337,228,632 | 2 | history |
these remind me of my early days in nursing when we went down for our gross anatomy labs . best day was the first day . our teacher made sure everyone had eaten and that no one was feeling faint and made it clear that if anyone felt like they were going to be sick , they were allowed to leave . she pulled off the sheets and lying there was this body of a 70 something woman and she was just hacked to pieces by the med students . she tries to show us something on the cadaver ' s arm and the whole arm ends up coming off and a girl in the back just passed out . teacher didn ' t even care , it was awesome . glad to hear you had such a great time there , keep on traveling my friend ! = ) | 1,337,228,131 | 13 | WTF |
i am of the opinion that it is not fair for anyone to hold hostage the sexuality of another person . if you are in a relationship of mutual agreement to be with only one another , than it is a two way street . but the moment it is no longer 2 way , it is no longer fair to expect monogamy . it sounds to me as though the fundamental aspects of your relationship have been altered . it is good of you to continue to care for her , and that much is maybe fair to expect of you given your relationship at the time of the accident . however , it is both unfair and unrealistic to expect your romantic and sexual aspects to be hostage to this situation . you have a life to live , go live it . | 1,337,228,601 | 3 | AskReddit |

so you are doing well with the clothing options for deciding to take the athletic clothes ( synthetics ) . i ' m not sure what kind of weather you will be experiencing , but it ' s always good to go with synthetic clothing as opposed to cotton for hiking or camping . synthetics pull the sweat away from your body and they dry fast . for hiking pants i ' d go with convertible pants . convertible pants are just pants with zippers around the knee area where you can zip them off and turn them into shorts if you wanted to . the nice thing is that it ' s a 2 - 1 system , you don ' t have to carry a pair of shorts in addition to a pair of pants . when i hike i wear them and if i get a little hot i unzip the zipper a little bit so they are almost shorts , but i keep it zipped enough that they stay pants ( unzip maybe halfway on each leg ) . this helps vent your pants and keep you cooler if you get a little hot . then if you get really hot you can just unzip them all the way and make them into shorts . some of them have ankle zips too , which is a nice feature since you can unzip the ankles and pull the bottom parts of the pants off when you go into shorts mode and you don ' t have to remove your boots . so ideally look for a pair for synthetic convertible pants . they are kind of hard to find , especially depending on your budget . to find them i would just start at thrift stores , you can ' t imagine how many nice hiking clothes i ' ve found there and all at an extremely steep discount i might add . if there ' s no luck there i ' d go to a bass pro , cabela ' s , dick ' s sporting goods , or whatever else you may have in your area . bass pro sells these pants pretty cheap ~ $ 30 . they can get pricey though , for example a pair of north face ones could run you almost $ 70 . the good thing is they last forever and you really only need one pair . if you had more time i would suggest you ordering from [ sierra trading post ] ( http : / / www . sierratradingpost . com ) , they have sales all the time and you can pick up some nice ones for very reasonable prices . | 1,337,228,705 | 5 | CampingandHiking |

yes and no ? pretty much , getting counselling is asking someone to help remove the faiths and beliefs you have which are causing you harm . help you realize what is happening , and how you can be different . generally we tend to live with the ones which aren ' t causing us harm , because they ' re good beliefs to have . among these i include optimism . i think it is a subset of faith . i am trying to say that optimism is a form of ignorance , because it is not realistic . on the scale , in my head it goes from optimism ( + ) to realism ( 0 ) to cynicism ( - ) . both optimism and cynicism in this sense are ignorant of reality , one having a good effect on your attitude , one having a bad effect . i don ' t dislike optimism , i ' m just saying it isn ' t a real interpretation of the world . and to maintain optimism , in any sense you need to have a bias , or a faith , that the world is good . that ' s why i brought up the problem of evil , those who recognize it as legitimate probably have a much more realistic world view than those who would argue it is all for a greater good . this , i am convinced is an entirely faith based position . it ' s confusing because i ' m trying to argue that this sort of optimism is usually a faith - construct . that tactic actually worked for me for long term weight loss , which only 10 % of people who try manage to do , as a side note . i ' m glad to hear you overcame your health problem . it must have taken some great amount of willpower and determination . | 1,337,228,474 | 1 | DebateReligion |

i ' ve played about a half - dozen games with him as well , and while i go mid or jungle often in ranked games , i find he is absolutely nasty in lane with leona . his w - magic damage on hit , is supplemented by leona ' s passive . if leona initiates with w + e , after a shot or two from varus , there ' s usuallly 2 - 3 stacks on the enemy carry - perfect for landing an e , and then having leona proc her q to stun them in the healing - less puddle . from there , they ' ve taken a boat - load of damage and are basically forced to burn flash to leave . if you can get a couple more auto - attacks in , your q can pop them for a pretty fair amount of damage . he trades like a boss if you can pop your w stacks . i really , really want to build a rageblade on him - his insane ap ratios on his r and w allow him to do a little extra damage once he ' s spooled up , and the extra attack speed and damage are never a bad thing . in teamfights , his r is great , but not quite the amumu ult i feared it would be when it started . it ' s also a slow - ish skillshot , and it takes some practice to land . you still have to land 2 - 3 autoattacks before popping them with q or e , which means you have to position like a boss in teamfights to be useful , but once you ' ve picked up that first kill your passive means you ' ll probably pick up the double . i ' d go for varus whenever you ' re tempted to take vayne to counter a health - stacking champ , but are not willing to sacrifice your laning phase for a hypercarry end - game . | 1,337,228,741 | 10 | LeagueofLegendsMeta |

is it just me that thinks this match means so much to both teams for 2012 ? essendon are playing great footy but aren ' t showing strong against lower opposition , their wins against high opposition have had big influences from injuries . a win against richmond who are playing well and have no injuries will prove that essendon is the real deal . will be considered close to flag favourites from a good win . richmond on the other hand have suffered losses against the high rated opposition and won convincingly in the games they were expected to , the only game that might have shown richmond was the real deal this year was against sydney but that could be written off as sydney not playing well at the big g . richmond need to prove they are who they say they are , the rest of the comp will need to watch out if they win . i think the big thing will be the margin at the end . a big win to essendon will see richmond fans writing this year off and looking to next . a big win to richmond might shatter essendon . i ' m hoping it ' s close but tipping 60 % : 40 % in essendon ' s favour , we ' re just not there yet . dreamtime factor may play the biggest part yet ! | 1,337,228,591 | 9 | AFL |

it ' s different for an attending and a resident / fellow . in my career , i expect that days on service will be around 10 - 12 hours , depending on how busy the unit is . i fully expect to have to cover some night shifts at least until i get more senior . those would run the balance with overlap on both ends , so figure 14 - 15 hours probably a few times a month . in internal medicine , jobs vary widely . for academic hospitals , most people wear more than one hat . i ' m trying to find a job where i will be mostly in research . figure 8 months a year supervising a lab , then the balance on either pulmonary consult service , pulmonary outpatient clinic , and in the icu . alternatively , you could be a clinician most of the time and split your time inpatient and outpatient . part of the varied nature of the job is what attracts me to it . the job is also not shift work ( although icu work is moving more that direction every year ) which means that some days may be short but some days may be very long . i don ' t personally love outpatient clinic . i don ' t like diabetic feet . i don ' t like stinky people . i like managing complex disease . i love teaching students . i actually really enjoy most family meetings . while on service , there is a structure but there may be dead time during the day . while off service , there ' s lots more flexibility . most places have pretty flexible scheduling . some days on service are very busy and sometimes you have to skip a seminar or a meal . sometimes you have to work 30 hours straight . do something you are interested in before starting . you ' re gonna learn all of the biology you need in med school . my bs in biology was perhaps not the best use of my time , especially since i did a phd in molecular genetics . also , i ' d agree with teedy . keeping up to date is very hard . the learning never stops . i don ' t know how i would do it if i wasn ' t in a hospital and given free food at seminars and grand rounds all the time . | 1,337,228,731 | 1 | askscience |
