    Honda posts first loss ever after EV pullback

    I thought it was a restyled Civic. It should have been more avantgarde.

    What are you doing right now?

    Likely a different species and extra green due to the fertilizer. I think it will look better in 2 weeks and after a mow. Hasn't been mowed in 6+ weeks either. I didn't want to lift up any seedlings or the straw protecting them.

    What are you doing right now?

    This is more what I have been doing, for the past 6 weeks +, than what I am doing right now. Had some work in the yard last year which required digging up the lawn. Planting grass was much harder than I thought! 1st batch of seeds took hold and maybe covered 40%. I used Scotts with...

    Has technology failed you today? List the ways and how often it happens to you.

    I've watched a few videos of techs fixing cell phone circuit boards; identifying and replacing tiny failed capacitors/components using thermal imaging, looking up or reverse engineering schematics, just old fashioned diagnostics. Sending the board out for repair might be a good option.

    Nursing school owner pleads guilty to selling nearly 3,000 fraudulent nursing diplomas

    OK so we are having an AI battle here. It can go on and on. IDK about you, but if I had a choice between: Nurse Practitioner (NP): Approximately 500-1,500 clinical hours total. Typically requires a Bachelor of Science in Nursing plus 2-3 years bedside experience, then an MSN-NP program...

    Nursing school owner pleads guilty to selling nearly 3,000 fraudulent nursing diplomas

    They don't though. It's an nursing admin degree that adds little to nursing experience. Is it more clinical or administrative: The DNP is officially defined by the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) as a practice doctorate emphasizing organizational leadership, healthcare...

    Nursing school owner pleads guilty to selling nearly 3,000 fraudulent nursing diplomas

    Here's some juicy stats for you @6.7 CTD. I look forward to yours. Performance gap on standardized assessments: When NPs have taken physician board examinations like Step 1 or Step 2 of USMLE on a voluntary basis, the documented pass rates have been dramatically lower than medical students...

    Nursing school owner pleads guilty to selling nearly 3,000 fraudulent nursing diplomas

    A DNP is an administrative degree, not medical. "The DNP (Doctor of Nursing Practice) was originally developed as a practice-focused doctorate emphasizing clinical leadership, healthcare administration, policy, and systems-level work rather than original scientific research. Many DNP programs...

    Nursing school owner pleads guilty to selling nearly 3,000 fraudulent nursing diplomas

    Having years of experience should be the mandate. The fast tracking/online schooling is what I have an issue with. Also if a nurse spend 5 years in the OB department and became a dermatology NP, how does that make sense. Many hospitals use mid-levels as a force multiplier to see extra...

    Labor rates went down as well due to the invaders willing to work for less.

    Nursing school owner pleads guilty to selling nearly 3,000 fraudulent nursing diplomas

    I think 2 reasons: 1. avoid 4 years of schooling. 2. Fast track to starting your own "practice". Also they don't care about nursing actually just the job. Indeed, there is a lot of administrative bloat vacuuming up what could pay for 2 or 3 nurses or additional doctors. There is a...
