Cardiac arrest is a symptom of a preexisting disease, usually of arrhythmia, which may be cured by...surgery. Arrhythmia is caused by idiopathic process or by disease such as an MI or by trauma. Using a defibrillator will not cure your trauma or your MI. It may alleviate the symptoms until either surgery or "doing nothing" resolves the problem.
Don't worry. Based on my experience working in medicine, in the future you will not get a $50 aspirin or a $1200 lab test. You will see your GP who will tell you to go home, put down your cheeseburger, go for a walk, take your own aspirin and call him in the morning.
There are two things that work in medicine. Surgery and antibiotics. Everything else treats symptoms or confirms you need either surgery or antibiotics.
Motive: Millions of union members of GM and their suppliers depend on the success and will continue to vote for the current government to insure others' lack of success--especially the company that put GM to #2.
Why would lights be relocated? There may be three banks of lights for each of three lane types. There is the bank of lights to turn left (red, yellow, turn-left-green). The people driving straight should ignore this. The center bank is traditional red-yellow-green. The right bank is for right turn only people. It is possible to have the left turn lane red, the center green, and the right turn red. Or only the left turn is green.
Many people, myself included, depend on the parallax of the lens to help shine the light into the proper lane. If I'm in the center lane, I can't see the left or right turn lane lights. It doesn't always work well.
So on many occasions, I drive through an intersection with one green light (straight) and two red lights (turn right/left).
BUT...
If the snow has occluded the turn arrow and all I see is the glow of the light and not the arrow, it may be confusing. I may get "shifted over" in my lane, thinking the turn-left arrow is really the center go straight arrow. It doesn't help that the lines for the intersection may be snowed over and people are driving on faith that the road is still there.
So to your claim that only a quick glance would work out which light is which, I bet you'd be depending on the road lines to help determine which lane you're in? I don't depend on the lines.
So if you come up to a new intersection with two lights, one red (bank of three) on the left and one green and round on the right (bank of three) do you go through the intersection or not?
Yes, it may have done just that. In many intersections of Wisconsin, there is one bank of lights that are red-yellow-green(go straight) and another bank of lights for red-yellow-turn-left, possibly even a red-yellow-green-turn-right.
In other words, in many intersections, there is no 5-light bank, only several three light banks.
OK Wisconsin person, I, too, am from Wisconsin. Just west of Milwaukee in Lake Country. A couple of weeks ago (*that* storm) that had the 50 mph wind, the sleet, and then then more snow? Yeah. That one.
I saw a left arrow look like a full-on green. It wasn't a full-on green, but it looked like it. To someone driving through the area for the first time, I could understand if there was confusion. The red "go thru" light was also glowing--always a sign to stop--but 100% sure the green turn arrow looked like a full-on green.
I am in Wisconsin and saw the partially obscured arrows. It did look like a full green. I knew the intersection, slowed down and could yield. The people who are unfamiliar with the intersection might never have realized it.
Obscured is a misleading description. Better description is "diffused" kind of like a quarter moon behind thin clouds still can look full.
Korea=yes, for the duration Viet Nam= yes, for the duration Cold War = yes, the USSR and USA often flew matching flights. Iraq I = yes (for about 20 minutes) Al Qaeda = yes (4 planes for about 90 minutes) Iraq II = yes (for about 3 minutes)
For the Future: Iran=yes (F-14s, thank you Jimmy Carter), MiG 29
A few suspect emails do not destroy millions of man hours of research. They do destroy faithfulness of the research if the premise those millions of hours spent are false.
I fail to see how Maddow spoon feeding her opinions with her brand of humor has anything to do with free thinking liberal. Does that mean I can make fun of people with Tourette's, Just Like Rachel? Can I call anyone who disagrees with me a racist?
Strong women, lesbian or not, need not rely on scaring the white man if their ideals are just. That's the difference between second wave feminists and the victim-laden third wave feminists.
Victim-styled liberals hate white men who understand history, perspective, and nuance and see past the false wisdom of the chattering carcasses put before them on cable news.
Yes. To start, her revisionism about Herbert Hoover. Calling him (Dec 2008) the "Hoover is a political epithet in bad economic times because his response to the Depression (pause) was to first do nothing and then do stuff that made it worse."
Funny, it's not true. He is set up in Maddows comments to continue the mythology that FDR was the savior of the depression when many (most?) economists believe he prolonged it.
Back to Hoover. Hoover's response to the stock market crash in 1929 was to call for massive federal spending on public works, which is exactly what Maddow wants Obama to do.
She repeated it in March, 2009.
Next example, not so much her owning this revisionism but encouraging it (Oct, 2009):
Maddow: Let me ask you about the statistic I attributed to you in my intro there - I know you have been doing some digging on this issue - of a Democrat joining a Republican filibuster. How, how unprecedented would a move like this be for Senator Lieberman?
Hamsher: Well, we have seen a number of the other party cross overswell we remember the Dixiecrats joining the Republicans in the sixties on civil rights filibusters
Ahem. Did she correct this? No. Why? It was the Democrats creating the problems with civil rights. Democrats voted against 80% of civil rights legislation since 1933. Majority of Republicans voted *for* civil rights legislation in 96%. And in the Civil rights bill of 1964, Republicans favored the bill 138 to 34; Democrats supported it 152-96. That looks like a higher percentage of Republicans than Democrats, no? But Maddow wouldn't let facts get in the way of her agenda.
Next.
Maybe less revisionism and more stupidity. In November, she denied the Constitution has a Preamble. Maddow said, in no uncertain terms, it does not exist. Hmmmm. Boehner (R-OH) was incorrect in his statement, he was quoting from the Declaration of Independence, but Maddow and her more intelligent than thou attitude should fact check.
My 2nd grade niece can quote from the Preamble of the Constitution (We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union,...)
So, what's her excuse for being so low in the ratings? Really, I'd like to hear her say it.
I guess not all of us are as fortunate as you to have the flexibility of disposable, forgettable patients and still yet call the outcome of such experience enlightening.
But take away the expensive diagnostic equipment and lab tests, and they become useless in the field.
You're right. We should skip the MR and go right to exploratory surgery.
Oh, one other thing. In my wife's oncology practice, there are many people willing to have a run of trial therapy. You may call them a guinea pig, but here in the US we still refer to them with respect and refer to them as a patient and "Mr." or "Mrs."
Perhaps the intention with saying "we have guns" is we could annihilate ourselves if we thought it was in our best interest. Game theory intergalactic style.
Game type #1: So imagine you are an alien, all peaceful and loving and just wanting to love a new species. Everything would work out, right? These would be the aliens like ET or Cocoon. Sure, we'd be labeled the North Koreans on the galactic block but at least we have a new place to visit. Maybe they have an intergalactic Dr. Phil who can help establish some trust.
Game type #2 Now what if you were a not so peaceful alien. You want to live on earth, but wow. Those humans are bat-shit crazy enough to destroy the planet. We better treat them kindly because if we fuck with them, they'll torch the place. These would be the aliens from Predator or Transformers.
Game type #3 The third possibility is that they will annihilate us no matter what our response. If we can quickly convey that we are crazy and will salt the earth, at least we might have a dog in the fight. The weapons might be ineffective on the aliens but we know they'll work on earth itself. These would be the Independence Day aliens. Not everyone can place a virus into the mother ship, but there's a reason that the Independence Day aliens chose earth and not Mars.
Being nice will leave you only +1 to the peaceful aliens. Being crazy will leave you +2 or +3.
Western scientists would love to know *why* it failed
Maybe. What might be more interesting is to know the precise machining and designs that worked so that a "signature" NK ICBM was cataloged. This way, if the same machining shows up in Iran, Syria, or others the world community can trace the lineage.

Theistic Evolutionists(Catholics tend to this one) will not have any epiphanies
You're right, it has been addressed by the Vatican. Catholics believe aliens could exist. No epiphanies required.
