Rick, I gifted you some of the best stuff I could and that I thought you might need after looking at your inventory. (but I don't know this game very well yet)
Chris, what is the max for attack, defense, energy, etc.? I haven't put many skill points into health because you can just buy it at the hospital (after you have enough to kill the bosses).
Jobs are getting harder/more expensive so I'm trying to put most points in energy.
L96
Attack: 190
Defense: 190
Health: 162
Energy: 252
Stamina: 72
Influence: 58
Recommendations? Suggestions?
TIA

What do you mean by "everything maxed out"? The businesses? It's really tough to get money in Cuba.
Did you master all three tiers of each level? I'm almost done with NY, but I'm not sure if I should've mastered all 1st tiers available then all 2nd tiers, etc. That will help my strategy for Cuba/Moscow. I like Moscow better than Cuba. There doesn't seem like there's a whole lot of interesting things to do in Cuba and it's very expensive without much money available.
I need more 15%ers.

After more research... I don't think Properties are available to us newer players. I think we only have Rackets. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Account Balance: $636,428,937 --> how much does it take to be allowed to buy property and where can you buy property?
Calculator won't work without Firefox (so it tells me).
Thanks!

Wyoming Antelope club on either Tuesday or Friday night, 4th Sunday and Steel on 3rd Saturday. Great group of locals to help you out and a nice place to learn the ropes.

Cliff Walsh simply can't understand how he could lose a fight with 5 revolvers!

I hate the both Merlin, here's why. I got out of the hospital recently after only an overnight stay only to find my inbox FULL of Facebook mafia wars and other wars crap. I don't like it, and don't like having to delete so much stuff. I've got lots of other things to do like dryfire to get out of D land and house work/ coaching/ and this great forum here.
So I posted a polited request for others to avoid sending me all this junk.
I am thankful that they listened and that this stuff doesn't show up anymore.

Just "Hide" whatever application you don't want to receive notifications from. That will clean up your home page.
I can't recruit anyone in Mafia Wars... I'm out of requests. Argh.

Here is another perspective on Swine Flu vaccination. This guy is sensible and well educated.
http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles...lu-Vaccine.aspx
There are three references listed with the article. I found the third to be very interesting.
I edited this post to point out the above references!
When I got to the statement "the risk of contracting cancer" I stopped reading.

I'm a family medicine resident and thus more likely than most to get exposed either in the office or in the hospital. I have a wife that is almost 34wks pregnant, so we'll have a new baby around for all of flu season. I also work ridiculous hours, so losing a week to the flu is a no go. I'll get any flu vaccine they put out there and ask my wife who HATES shots to get the flu shot(s) for the first time. As someone above mentioned, the young and healthy are most at risk for serious problems. I'm a believer in vaccinations, but to work as they are supposed to, as many people as possible have to take them. When was the last time you heard of a small pox outbreak? The developed world doesn't see much polio anymore. The pertussis part of the tdap vaccine has dramatically changed the number of infants we see with whooping cough.
It frustrates me when people, especially medical professionals, compare influenza to any other vaccine. They're simply not the same. Our current medical approach will never eradicate the flu. Current medicine cannot prevent the spread from animal species (pig, bird) to humans or the combination of genes from human strains with animal strains... unlike the other diseases you've mentioned. Additionally, Smallpox and Polio are viral... but Diptheria, Pertussis and Tetanus are all bacterial. Highly contagious/infectious - yes, comparable - no. Viruses and bacteria are very different beasts.
The influenza virus and evidence surrounding it's transmission and progression is very complex/complicated. The influenza virus evolves rapidly and replaces a previous strain. Each season's flu vaccine is formulated from a previous influenza strain. A current vaccination may or may not produce immunity to a current strain. This is why people who always get the vaccine get sick one year when they didn't last year.
As mentioned earlier in this topic, the younger are at higher risk for H1N1 infection due to the belief that the older population has been previously exposed to a related strain and have already mounted an immune response. You can't say that immunizations are the sole reason for reduced mortality/morbity over the years. Medical advancements in treatment, health care, nutrition, personal and public hygiene, and knowledge are ALL contributing factors as well.
I don't promote or discourage the flu vaccine. If you feel that you need or want any vaccine, by all means, receive it. Personally, I don't receive the flu vaccine and will not receive the H1N1 vaccine. "Standard Precautions" along with common sense and good health practices will go a long way towards prevention. I work in a large hospital with a very vulnerable population. I have seen quite a bit of H1N1 without any related deaths.
Don't get me started on media hype... argh! FWIW, the term "pandemic" refers to cases of infections, not deaths.
Another FWIW, most antibiotics used to treat bacterial infections, kill the bacteria. However, antivirals, like Tamiflu, do not kill viruses.
My response is based on education and experience. However, there is a very interesting (and scary) book about the flu, "Flu - The Story of the Great Influenze Pandemic of 1918 and the Search for the Virus That Caused It" by Gina Kolata. It includes information on the evolution of H1N1 ("swine flu") and H5N1 ("avian flu"). IMO, a must read.
Hope that helps!

Gosh, must've been '95-'96? I can't remember. I had just moved back home (SLO) from San Diego. Chuck and his girlfriend came out to my dad's restaurant and I comped him some steamed clams.
Mmmmm, SLO Brew... Loved that place! And Garden Street was always fun and interesting.
It's funny the things we remember.

Not the same picture you're talking about, but I like this one too!

As an innocent bystander observing these competitors being DQ'd on Stage 11... and some of them my friends/acquaintances...
I really think there was a problem with the stage. Why set up the shooter for DQ? Was it really necessary? What shooting challenge did it provide? Would it have made that big of a difference if they just had the shooter start downrange? Why post a RO in an area that was obviously an area capable of causing problems. Remove the problem with the stage, not the shooters. ESPECIALLY if you want to claim safety infractions.
On the flip side, if you see a RO specifically stationed in an area to DQ people... save the 0.05seconds on your draw and stay in the match.
11 DQs on Stage 11... There's something wrong with the stage and the officiating. I think the shooters were set up for failure and that's sad.
BTW, although I didn't shoot, I WAS in attendance and a witness to this issue.

Watching Chuck Liddell on Dancing with the Stars. I LOVE it! Haven't seen Chuck since the last time we hung out at The Library (bar) on Higuera Street, ... Thursday nights in SLOw town.
Just makes me grin ear to ear!

I just put a couple on there (Squad 9 and Doni/Yael), the upload worked much better.... Thanks Sharyn
You're welcome! I apologize for the delay. I'm not overly familiar with that software (yet!). Thanks for the additions! Let me know if 100MB is enough. I have unlimited HD space.
Love the picture of you and that flag, its awesome !I really wish I could have spent more time talking with J Scott (www.actionshootingpodcast.com). He's a great guy and his website/photography/podcasts, etc. are fantastic! I was just a little preoccupied with trying to make the webcast work... even standing on the top of that hill and holding my laptop! (I look a little pissed... but I was CONCENTRATING!)

I finally figured out how to change the quota... it was in a very odd place.
Users now have 100MB upload-ability (well, 97.6562MB) Please contact me if you have still have trouble. Thank you all so much for your help with the Women of USPSA coverage! Great videos and pictures, Paul and Paul!!!

Well, it's interesting to be on the other side of the "offended" fence. As I'm sure most of you know, that was purely meant in good humour. I apologize to the offended as it wasn't my intention.

Healthcare bullcrap
in What I Hate
Posted · Edited by Sharyn
OK, so we have this mandatory education inservice so we can improve our "customer satisfaction" rating...
We're told that with upcoming healthcare reforms, hospitals will only be reimbursed from government funds if they have a "high customer satisfaction" rating.
Then we're told that if the hospital isn't reimbursed with government funds, we won't get paid either. Direct quote: "Patients pay your salary."
So... my question is... since about 80% (not exaggerated) of my patients are Medicaid... if I don't get paid, who will pay for their healthcare?
ARGH!!!
