Why is this such a suprise to anyone? My daughter cannot even get into the nursing program at Cuesta until the Fall of 2007 or Spring of 2008. She was immediately accepted to Boise State University, but she would have to leave all of her support system in the form of her family and friends. This with a husband and two small boys. In addition, the pay for nurses here is well below the average in other areas (as is the pay to doctors). How do you suppose they are to support themselves and afford housing?? The issue needs serious consideration and appropriate action, not consistently stating the obvious. Work on resolution, increase school funding to accomodate more students and pay nurses appropriately for their hard work and dedication. That, in the least, would be a start
waaoommmmmm

Every citizen in every state should do following to see how your health department measures to public health ethic: Truth in Reportability
Ask what if anything is done to promote safe X-rays, disappearance and unreported radioactive materials, worker exposure to chemicals and radioactive waste which is stored on site, about water with high radon/radium levels, radon tests and mitigations that you are not aware are doing you more harm than good.
For example Delaware's high cancer incidence and high mortality rates are due to reasons known to all of us in Health Agencies. It gets answered by bandaid deals like cancer task after cancer task....what are they doing whiling away their political term, yet to give the state more childhood cancers, rare forms of cancer. What does the health agency do: just destroys data or keeps that registry incomplete or better yet avoids taking data into consideration.Every citizen in every state should do following to see how your health department measures to public health ethic: Truth in Reportability

Daily Horoscope for June 1

Leo

Try not to over-commit yourself at this time. If you can establish a few limits you will be really pleased with the end results. You're flying high -- which is great, but try not to get ahead of yourself and lose the advantage of the good opportunities surrounding you. Why not relax at home tonight? Have a few friends over for some pleasant banter.
