What Are You Researching / Looking Up?

[DLR_Mysterion]

Yes.

Which as of late Sept though Dec. Masters degree or higher needed to gain access for foreign people. Then as of this year Jan. Doctoral degree needed.

Which just makes me think that either they are doing over education or just want to have more "hometown" workers.

Since I went and looked at some schools around here. Every one I looked at had a "Bachelor's" and makes me think that so someone with a "Bachelor's" can get a job while someone that has the same experience and degree can't? Which is just confusing and stupid.

Did you qualify outside the US?

I am in the US.

Doing research for my significant other who only has a Bachelor's as of April of 16. Sept 17 - Dec 31st need a Masters. Jan 1st+ Doctoral.

So the harder it gets the more frustrating it becomes.

Medical License exams and stuff and all the work that has to be done for that.

My wife had a BSN (Bachelor of Science - Nursing) when she was a nurse in the ER for 15 years. Even though she was damn good at her job (they had to hire two nurses to replace her when she quit), there's no way she was prepared to practice under her own license.

She now has her doctorate (DNP - Doctor of Nursing Practice) and can practice under her own license, performing procedures, FDA licensure to prescribe medications, etc.

There's no way I'd trust ANYONE without that level of education to perform those tasks.

Unless I'm completely misunderstanding what you're researching.

I am but for physical therapy?
Really need a doctoral degree for that?

I've been a Vet. Tech working at the Feline Medical Clinic in Vancouver, WA for the past 15 years.

I have had the fortunate opportunity to be involved in several different drug studies specifically designed for cats.

A huge percentage of drugs that we use on our companion animals come from human medications. It is very rare that a drug is made specifically for animals. And it's even more rare for a cat only medication to be made/tested.

The drug studies I've been involved in include new drugs for CKD (chronic kidney disease) and feline hypertension (high blood pressure).

My most recent study involves cats which have non-regenerative anemia. A simple blood screening test allow us to see which cats meet the study requirements. If cats show 29% PCV/HCT (packed cell volume and hematocrit) on initial bloodwork then we ask if they would like to enroll the cat into the study.

Cats will come into the clinic once a week for 4 consecutive weeks for bloodwork and to administer the test drug if it is indicated by the test results. At the end of four weeks we will have another evaluation and bloodwork done, and have the option of continuing on in a follow-up, returning monthly for 3 more months.

The drug is something we have wanted for years. We currently use a human product to help with red blood cell formation, but it is risky and cats do not always tolerate it well (they can have severe life-threatening reaction) so we've rarely used it in the past. Cats that have chronic anemia tend to eat poorly, are less active and have more rapid deterioration of their organ function parameters if left untreated. This drug my revolutionize some of how we manage our old kidney disease cats (the most likely population to need this drug). This particular drug is a mimic of the actual feline hormone, feline erythropoietin and because this is the feline version, should be considerably safer to use long term.

I've only had one cat qualify so far. It's a little scary giving a cat new/experimental drugs and watching for adverse reactions. Happy to report that the cat is responding fantastic to the drug with little to no side effects reported by the owner!

Well the change in FCCPT has made things a bit easier now if other things happen in a more easier way.
Valid until 2020 so that should have lots of time.

I like to research a lot of lore in games and anime.

Right now, looking at the origin of Solaris (main villain of Sonic 06) and how he split into 2 beings, 1 represting his raw strength (Iblis) and 1 representing his mentality (Mephiles). With 06 being a incomplete mess, I think the story of Solaris and his parts is interesting as well as Silvers connection with Iblis and Shadows connection with Mephiles, more better than Sonic saving Elise for 4 times in 1 game. Also looked at an interesting theory that while the events of Sonic 06 were erased, the essence of Mephiles remained in the form of Time Eater in Sonic Generations.

I'm looking into which brand/type of tyres are the best for lateral & longitudinal grip in wet conditions.

They also have to fit my 18"x 7.5" rims so, 225/45R18 91W.

There are a coupe of Australian magazines, Wheels & Motor, that conduct annual Tyre Tests but, unless a tyre manufacturer agrees to submit their rubber for testing, they don't make it into the field of competitors.

Since my last post, the research has thrown up two leading candidates.

Continental ContiSportContact 5P

&

Dunlop Sport Maxx RT

The Michelins, while an excellent tyre, don't like standing water.

Sorry to hear about the unsavoury element on Craigslist.

Absolutely something to be leery of. My dad once had some guy try to take off with tools he had listed on Craigslist. Ever since that day, he's always done his small deals at the post office across from the police station here. The only exception to that rule was when my dad sold one of his Jeeps, and he didn't even help that guy load it until he verified that the money was there. If you think someone is trying to rip you off on the car when they look at it, I would suggest having someone else in the house write down any plates from people who look at it so if the deal does go South, you at least have the information to submit to the police ready to go.

Of course, 99% of the deals he does are hassle free and go smoothly, but it's always a concern especially with a big item like a car.

Trying to pull the old "I need the title for the test drive" line eh?

Just show them a picture of @Pako or @Michael88 and say they're your "cousins". That should set them straight.

I was absolutely planning on getting plate numbers.

I purchased and sold things here and there from Craigslist with no issues whatsoever, including buying the car, but I've never sold anything this big.

No, the "I'll send you money through PayPal and you can ship it to me" routine.

I should brush up on my Photoshop skills and edit them into my family picture and hang it out in the garage! 💡

Although I have no experience with PayPal, anything I've sold online hasn't made it off the property until the funds are safely in my bank account.

I also like @AnthonyD1993 suggestion of conducting business outside a Police Station.
Anyone other than authentic will think twice about that.

Yup. Police/fire station is the safest place to go.

Im selling my lawn mower right now but where i live there are cops to my left and right all day with their cars outside. Good deterrent from getting ripped off.
