Hello online dairy…..I have much to share after a week of working in my new job. I feel super (and super-tired)…..more than 70 customers personally served in a day (each transaction can last a few minutes to 15 min depending on whether I need to enroll customers)….and this isn’t even a bank. Nonetheless, I am [...]
As baby develops during your pregnancy, the weight presses on your cervix.
This leads to opening of the cervix before the arrival of pregnancy due date and without any labor or contractions.
This situation is referred to as incompetent cervix or weakened cervix, which again lead to premature delivery or miscarriage.
Though, incompetent cervix occurs [...]

A new survey suggests nearly half of all doctors don't report observed incompetence in their colleagues.
Researchers mailed a survey and a $20 incentive check to more than 3,000 doctors. More than 90 percent of the roughly 1,500 who answered said that physicians should always report an impaired or incompetent colleague to the proper authorities. But 45 percent also reported that they hadn't always done so.
A third of surveyed doctors also said they would order an unnecessary MRI scan just to get rid of a complaining patient, and eleven percent reported breaching patient confidentiality.

Selling Seagate a national security risk? Grow up!
The xenophobes are at it again. This time they’re freaking out because a Chinese technology company has expressed an interest in purchasing hard drive maker Seagate.“Seagate would be extremely sensitive,” said an industry executive who participates in classified government advisory groups.…

Weird Pownce problem.
For the past few days I’ve been having the weirdest problem using the Pownce desktop application in Vista.I minimized the application and when I clicked on the taskbar to restore the screen it disappeared. It was still running and available in the taskbar but it was not displaying on either

I took Bub to a speech-therapy evaluation yesterday. This was a follow-up to the four months of weekly therapy he received at the beginning of the year; the idea is to test him to see how he’s progressed and whether he qualifies for continued therapy this summer.
Luckily, Bub was in an enchanting mood. I explained that we were going to the building where we used to see Becky, but that today
A recent article in Time Magazine referred to Iraq Troops as being inept, incompetent, and lacking in motivation:An ongoing TIME investigation has turned up several tactics insurgents use to evade detection and get past the security arrangements. Most of the tactics are designed to exploit the ineptitude of Iraqi security forces - the 30,000 soldiers and 21,000 police who are meant to support U.S. troops. Lacking in training, equipment and motivation, the Iraqis are the soft underbelly of the surge. A U.S. military internal assessment of the surge in late May showed that they are often unable to perform the simplest tasks, like manning checkpoints. And insurgent groups take full advantage, easily slipping men and munitions in and out of neighborhoods guarded by Iraqi soldiers and police.Now, I realize that the Iraqi Troops and Police are not even a close match to the US Military, so it is to be expected that they will not perform as well as our brave men and women do, but I find this
Just 19 percent of voters nationwide had a favorable opinion of Mr. Reid in a Rasmussen Reports survey conducted last weekend — down from 26 percent a month ago and still lower than Mr. Bush’s 35 percent favorable rating.
This is the man that is supposed to lead the senate, and what a fine job he has done. Since he took over as senate majority the senate has passed numerous domestic bills, stopped earmarks, and ended the war. At least that is what they promised to do. It is so easy to make promises when you are the minority, but when you have a majority and it’s time to legislate, it’s not always so easy. (more…)
Just a few minutes ago I was eating a couple of slices of banana bread my ex wife had sent over to me recently and reading a Clancy novel. The novel is Executive Orders if anyone is interested. Anyway, I glance over at the monitor on my desk next to me and see a headline saying Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid Calls Joint Chiefs Chairman Peter Pace Incompetent. My first thought was to wonder if Reid was now channeling Jane Fonda Partisan politics has gotten to the point with the Democrats that any individual that is even remotely connected to the Bush administration will be harassed and belittled publicly. The quality of their work is irrelevant as soon as they are recognized as a high value target. People have become little more than stepping stones for our politicians. I am not going to blame the Democrats exclusively for this although they have developed it to a fine art form. I have read a few pieces on Gen. Pace but have no real level of expertise on his level of profic
flangracneig pgoramian I’m rarely in when the postman arrives, usually I’ve already buggered off to work, so I see what little mail I have when I get home from work. I say “mail I have”, there are two R Wynne’s, and occasionally mail aimed at A Wynne is mine too (somehow my dentist has me down as Alun Rhys Wynne, as opposed to Rhys Alun). I had a letter today which was my Boots Advantage Card (Top Tip! When your boss gives you a Boots gift card as a Christmas present, get an advantage card and you can add an extra 20% to the value of it). The address was to me, and that and the name on the front was fine.
 In case you haven’t spotted it, not only has this card become the gayest card in my wallet (even beating “Liberty’s Loyalty Card”) with the pink writing and the flower drawn by a spyrograph, they also spelt my surname “Wynnb”. I’m pretty sure that is unpronouncable in all known forms of languages and dialects.
My personal schedule has been hectic to say the least, but I thought I'd just share some more thoughts on this matter since a couple of people have inquired. Those who have read the 'reports' seem to think PIU were indeed hoodwinked.ScamLet's just say the arguments for PIU in this catergory is really high.1. For starters, where in the world did this third party fictional(?) investment company come from??? All along I (and alot of others) was led to believe that PIU did all the trading. I've never once read on any forum nor in their newsletters that they had outsourced our money to a third party company. They had always inferred that trading and other investment vehicles were done by 'their traders'.Now all of a sudden they dropped the bombshell that they had put our money into another company. Sounds like a desparate attempt to deflect attention. Now, let's say the reports are true, I'm still maintaining that I was scammed. Had I known there was a third party involved, my deci
I have never been arrested and those that have responded to whether or not I am competent– the answer has always been a resounding yes, I am competent.
During consecutive discharge proceedings by an employer which the EEOC told me to expect– my competency was called into question.
