do you really think they cross the border on their own?

All they have to do is sneak over the border,
pop a baby out onto the bathroom floor, and the baby is a US citizen! Give me a BREAK. This country has gotten so F'd.
We get them all the time. They'd sooner drive over the border
and pay cash here for medical treatment than to wait for Canada's healthcare system to kick in.

Bush is speaking tonight on Mexico border at 8
I just heard on TV that Bush will be speaking at 8 pm on ABC insteady of Oprah's Legend Ball, and when he's done, last night's Grey's Anatomy will be rerun and then the 2-hour finale from 9-11 pm EST.....
So if ya missed it last night, you'll get about 3 hours tonight of the Season Finale.......
Puhleez, what exactly is the government doing about illegals crossing the border?
Absolutely nothing. NOTHING! The government sanctions sending American jobs oversees, puting thousands of American workers on unemployment! So why should I or anyone else feel guilty about trying to get what we rightfully deserve?
As far as testing on the phone goes, doxie, you can be listening on an extension and write the answers down for your husband. Don't feel guilty. You're going to pay your taxes.
Is Terra Nova owned by a guy that lives on the border of Maine/Canada? - sm
If so, this guy is a snake. He was willing to pay $0.14/line for the Kaleida account just temporarily until he could get his lines set up to offshore. He told me that on the phone!!!
Breaking news. Bush directs H. Rita to Texas in order to curb illegal Mexicans from entering border.
LOL
God bless the Red Cross
And some people have the nerve to say not to donate to the Red Cross because of not being sure of where the donations are going. Shame on FEMA.
Keep those donations rolling. We had some little kids who set up a roadside lemonade stand a few towns away from us and they made $50.00 to send to the Red Cross. Isn't that sweet?
Our local firefighters were out in Wal Mart parking lot holding up their fire gear boots. No signs or anything. We knew what they were doing. Sure I only had a couple of dollars to stuff in a boot, but if every person entering Wal Mart even put in a quarter, it would make a big difference. What really shocked me was the amount of people that just walked by.
She's not into cross dressers
You want her to come over so you can borrow her pumps maybe?
I'm in Level Cross, NC

Yep, he is from Level Cross
he lives about 1 1/2 miles from my house. See him at the gas station now and again.
A Cross pen or pen set is always safe. :-)

how to handle -- be sure and dot your I's and cross your t's
First you need to be able to substantiate what you are saying.
you need to know who is signing off the report? Is she??? or is the physician???? or is she signing the report off by another physician???? If she is how is she doing it.
You need to get all your ducks in a row so that you dont go to administration and look like a troublemaker making things up.
Personally I would gather all my proof and turn a copy of it in to adminstration anonymously (make sure that cannot trace it back to you because when the fire starts you dont want to get burned in the aftermath).
If doesnt take care of it take that same info, write a letter explaining what you have witnessed and that you reported to administration but it continues and anonymously submit all of this info to JCAHO.

2 cards - FEMA and Red Cross
They haven't gotten to the FEMA ones, I don't think yet, but the Red Cross ran out of their cards today in Houston at the GRB after people stood in line for about 6 or so hours. They thought there would be rioting. Yeah, we are having a great time here in Texas.
How about counted cross stitch
I've been doing it since I was 16-17 yrs old and it is the one thing I constantly go back to after doing anything else crafty.... just so relaxing
or in lay people's terms, a cross between
No and I didn't and don't cross the eyes....sm
And I do it alone in front of a mirror in the bathroom...*lol* - not a pretty pose, you're right - but it WORKS for TMJ.....*S*
Have a nice day!!!!
Red Cross site having "tech. difficulties."
Now that's a surprise! Everyone keep trying.
Red Cross donations= Research before you donate to ANY NPO
I, for one, will NEVER donate to the Red Cross. Why? My father was NEVER notified his mother died. He never got to attend her funeral or say goodbye. . . He found out after he came home from the service. I could tell you other horror stories, but won't. Sure, I'm bitter, but don't need to be flamed. Would you like to come home and find your mother has been dead and buried and you didn't even know? Think about it.
The Salvation Army is my choice. I KNOW all the money is going to the Katrina Victims. If anyone has a chance, they should look at the statistics on how much money donated really goes to victims of a disaster. The sites escape my memory right now, but they are/should be all online.
Blue Cross only pays $25 towards exam. sm
They have coverage for glasses up to $100 (what progressive trifocals cost under $100?) Of course, my doc does not have the frames that come under the $100 program. Natch
Cross country trip to CALIF and
back. My husband and I took three weeks and drove to California and back through the Southwest. Saw Yellowstone and the Giant Sequoias, Santa Fe, Sedona, etc. We had never been there and it was great just driving with no set plans, stopping along the way whenever and where ever we wanted... such freedom.. My second best was a week and a half to Glacier Falls, Montana, but that's been years and years ago. Heck, any vacation is a great one! My bags are packed and ready anytime!
Ahh, Dr. Quinn... a cross between Little House on the Prairie and ER.

I moved cross country, setting up sm
every night in a different motel, and with no laptop, either. I just used whatever table they provided and setup my total PC system, and got the work done. Not the usual situation, but it worked fine. It sure was not a vacation, though, but a cross country move. Had to stop by dark every night and get some sleep, get up a midnight to work 6 hours, then move on. Made a lot of money, at least as much as usual.
International Red Cross started the aid to the Tsunami victims first.
It was over a week before we could start shipping in aid and a couple weeks before we had the telethon. It's only been 2 days so far. I still believe that when it comes down to human suffering people will respond no matter what country it happens in. It just takes time.
What really angers me is that we're hearing on the news that a major portion of the cost of aid in our OWN country will come from donations of US citizens. Where does our tax money go when we need it the most, with situations like these? Our taxes should be used for the citizens of the United States, and whatever is left over for aid to others, not for subsidizing every other country in the world that our govt. pledges it to.
I have Blue Cross through Webmedx. Office visits are $20. nm

I went to the Red Cross to volunteer locally and was told that I needed to apply to the state for a
background check, which will take from 2 weeks to a month to get back. I understand red tape as well as the next person, but is this really necessary? They are asked for people to help load trucks and pack and sort supplies right now, but only from people who are already in "the system." I guess I'll go another route and go to one of the local churches and volunteer, without the red tape.
The Red Cross just HANDED OUT $5 million worth of debit cards in Texas.
FEMA decided to mail them in 14 days if the people knew where they were going to be...couldn't possibly get them out faster...too much work...etc.
Cross stitch kits, square lap looms for crocheted afghans.
Not that I have time.
You can cross-reference generic and brand names and get dosage info at...SM
RXList. I guess buying a drug book every other year wouldn't be a bad idea. When I was a newbie, I used to think I had to buy a new drug book every year until I discovered the wealth of info on the internet and I just write new terms in my books. I know some people like to keep their books pristine, but I make notes in mine all of the time.
Your best bet is your local Blue Cross and/or Blue Shield company, depending on where you live
Here in Idaho, we have both companies but a lot of other states have BC/BS combined. Our family has a policy through Regence Blue Shield that is $196 for my husband and three kids. It has a $25 office copay and it is a limited policy, which is 12 office visits a year and lab up to $300. It works great for us because we never got to the doctor, yet we have it if we need it.
I have an individual policy for major medical, $35 office copay, with our local Blue Cross and it is $59 a month for me and it has prescription coverage too. Not a bad deal. I think they are your best bet for decent coverage at a good price.
Blue Cross/Blue Shield or Mutual of Omaha - Which company pays off claims the best w/o hassle?
