    anesthesiologist draws on pt's face while she is knocked out and took a pic

    I have some interesting stories to add here. Back in high school I job shadowed an anesthesiologist for a few simple hernia surgeries. A few things went on that I was appalled by. The surgeon was the culprit. 1. The laparoscopic tool they use has a camera on it. The surgeon pulls the...

    Doctors of atot..is this staph? gross pic inside edit: new pic

    I had something similar and took care of it myself. Head to CVS/Walgreens or someplace similar and get some drawing salve. The brand I got was Prid. The main ingredient just needs to be Ichthammol. You spread it on the spot and cover it with gauze and tape. It draw all the crap out of it...

    Best Active TV Show

    I think Breaking Bad wins for best writing/ability to completely mindf*ck you. GoT wins for sheer constant entertainment value.

    What kind of mattress and where to buy?

    Several people have already mentioned Simmons BeautyRest but I'll bring it up again. I am a very picky sleeper and no foam/latex mattress worked. Also had a 60 day trial of a Sterns and Foster I hated. We bought our King size mid/high end Simmons BeautyRest for about 1700 including the box...

    Good point. Do you know if they offer a day pass or cheap option for the train for someone who will only use it a few times?

    What to do in Chicago/Mag Mile

    Thanks for the good, honest advice. We will probably check that Museum if it's as good as you say. Does Chicago have any kind of indie/alt rock music scene of any kind? Any links to a specific place that has live music every weekend? We are planning on doing Wendella boat tour and...

    What to do in Chicago/Mag Mile

    Not a huge budget. We will probably eat on the go most of the time so we can see more of the city/attractions. As far as dinner is concerned, I'm not too keen on spending hundreds of dollars on a meal that will be shit out in 12 hours, so something affordable but delicious if possible. Maybe 100...

    What to do in Chicago/Mag Mile

    Leave the Loop for where? First time ever in the city so getting on a train with no destination is a bit counterproductive. And, we are tourists after all so Mag Mile might be just what we want.

    What to do in Chicago/Mag Mile

    Wife and I are spending Fri-Sun in Chicago and I wanted a locals opinion (or someone who visits often) of things that should really be done while in town. We will be staying downtown Michgan/Wacker and won't have access to our vehicle while we are there so suggestions within walking distance or...

    small rant: folk rock revolution is killing my ears

    The majority of music on hit radio stations is complete garbage, in my opinion. It's either autotuned, dubstep, or very unoriginal music written by someone other than the artist. I would wager that >80% of music on hit radio stations fit into one of those categories. The reason folk rock is...

    gas prices up 30 cents day after elections...

    Hilarious :) The president has no control over the price of gas when we aren't using the reserves. Anyone who thinks otherwise just likes to complain about he president or is completely ignorant.

    Basic SQL Training

    Thank you! The job doesn't require any changes be made to the data, just querying to collect data. I will take a look at that resource. I watched someone working in it and it seems pretty easy but wanted to know the syntax going in. Thanks again!

    Basic SQL Training

    Couldn't find a better place to post this so here goes... Does anyone know of a good, free resource that has basic SQL query training/tutorials/etc? There is a job opening in my department and they do quite a bit of querying daily and it would be nice to brush up on some basics of SQL to...

    NOW CLOSED ; List some movies you've watched recently. Theatre, rental, TV... and give a */10

    21 Jump Street - 8/10 - Plot is iffy but some really hilarious moments. Had me laughing for the duration. Jeff, who lives at home - 4/10 - Loved the cast, but the movie was bland and unimaginative. Not the greatest and tries too hard to be indie.

    Ivy or sandy? I7 or I5??

    IB is faster than SB. If you have the money spring for IB. As far as the BF3 thing goes. I play on an i5 2500k at those settings on a GTX580 OC and I assure you it's not "unplayable" in the least. the last time I checked BF3 could only utilize 3 cores/threads max. So having a quad-core over a...

    Couple Halloween Costume Ideas

    Not saying those ideas aren't good, I like the pirate idea. But I was thinking more like bambam and pebbles or batman/catwoman. I am going to try to find some cheap pirate costumes that I like though. Thanks for the idea.

    One thing I hate about mathematical classes

    I hate the fact that for one semester my professor will assure us we need a calculator to pass the course and doesn't show how to do anything by hand. Then, I go into a harder class the following semester, and the prof doesn't let us use calculators and I am completely lost. /rant off...
