A case of self-doubt as a shiny new Paramedic, NO WORRIES but First take a Big Breath .. ok thats better. Firstly WELCOME to the City: If you don't mind too much I am going to dissect your post, attempting to show you where your strengths already are . We dysfunctional goofs are not going anywhere .. well accept crazy (er) but thats measured in degrees cheers ps sorry bout the bold thing I exceeded "quotes" again.

SOCKS new fuzzy "non NATO issue" dry socks. And if your GUY can get internet when on land .. a link to this post on EMT city to show how much you care for him and that we do to. btw .... Whats dirty about sex .... Happi ? LOL. cheers

Correction: THEY ARE THE BORG !

AK ... I do hear what your saying and brother I do understand your torment. Whenever one culture attempts to influence another especially in the area of religion it is a recipe for this type of tragic action. When will mankind learn is way beyond me. Violence against each other has been going on since the dawn of time. I truly believe this that organised religion or cultural doctrine IS the root of all EVIL, co-exsistance is proven over and over is quite IMPOSSIBLE. Especially when one doctrine "suggests" or is "interpreted" to suggest that one path vs another path is more "correct" . As every father knows when there is a dispute amonst the children one has 2 option (s) 1- Might makes Right. 2- Separate. That said: As you AK, and your personal attempts at winning hearts and souls and Kudos my brother. I still have a singular iota of hope that things will be somehow better before I die. (thats the Hope for Humanity the little voice in my head) If we all could can drop Blind Faith as the rationale for what we do, most curiously enough mans belief in one deity over another deity is something that can never be proven or dis-proven, but we will die for it ? Maybe this is the way is was destined to be ? I believe we are doomed to stay in the circle of death. (thats the realistic voice(s) in my head.) I was asked once by a common close friend: Would you provide medical lifesaving care to your proven enemy knowing full well that they would never have mercy on your soul ? My "ideological view" and answer to that question has since changed. I so so so miss her council, the tears of "not knowing what became" are ...... Patch: I believe you are very confused and a very torn individual (not to be perceived as adversarial please) many humans world wide are so indoctrinated from the time they understand the spoken word they do not have the capacity to change as they have never been exposed to this idea of change. I would hazard a stab in the dark that you sir have NEVER been shot at by a child soldier that is absolutely convinced that you are the devil himself, if you don't take cover or return fire you will be dead. Fact: bullets do not curveand these children have an AK 47 from age 10. These issue's here have absolutely nothing to do with money in the slightest, perhaps ENVY is what you mean ? This ideological dream that everyone will be peaceful and get along solving problems through dialog is just for Hollywood movie scripts and philosophers when the fact's facing us that will never become utopia world look around. Do you believe that in a blink of an eye mans intrinsic and proven in spades violent mans behavior will ever change ? You wish to have the entire world to conform to your way of thinking ? I wish good luck with that but it may just make you insane on that journey. As always chbare most excellent insightful commentary, one can not comprehend this simple statement until you live it, many times I wasted my breath trying to explain this to no avail and absolute utter frustration. cheers

I have personally witnessed many Doctors screwing around wasting time (when belly's are getting shiny) this in ER or ICU .. its not limited to Paramedics.I often wonder if there was "protocol allowed" to admin O neg in the field if this would make a difference in mortality morbidity, too bad the artificial O2 carrying blood substitutes have been less than promising. Thing is that with the vast majority of "elemental medic educational programs" they leave a paint by numbers philosophy when its actually experience (in many cases) that one needs as a guide just when chillax and to "do no harm" and when to get to "get the hell out of Dodge". cheers cheers.

I just read the Commentary by the others at the bottom of the page .... quite interesting. Pro and the Con. Defiantly worth the click see.

I have no idea what McDonalds vs Chicago is aboot ? (well ok I looked but how this has any bearing on this issue I fail to see. (I do believe every non-criminal should have a gun. btw) Frankly when we need Laywers / Judges to "interpret" the "intent" of the Laws, then we do have a real problem right here in River City. ps and oh yea O.J. didn't do it pfft. Your statement about slavery is kinda out in left field, although I am a slave to pay taxes perhaps we as a majority should take a vote on we want a reduction in tax ... anyone on board for that referendum ? AS IF. But confusing mob rule = democratic process is way over the edge of rational thought process. My personal bottom line is I am totally fed up with political correctness / appeasement of special interest groups when the feelings and wishes of the majority is blown off like a leaf in the wind. Just what issue becomes the "end point" ? The idea that Happi notes of Sept 11 being the grand opening confirms the initial post was quite correct "A Slap in the Face" cheers

On another 'note' this link is interesting / intriguing : http://www.wpix.com/news/wpix-jewish-leaders-ground-zero-mosque,0,4584604.story Oddly enough proceeded by a commitment of BP to clean up the mess and destruction of GOM. (We will make this Right HUH ?) I digress. Still 61% of New Yorkers polled are opposed to this building of this structure. Should this NOT be a major definitive factor in a country dedicated to a democratic process or let the courts interpret the First Amendment ? The voters say NO ... so hold a plebisite / referendom is the only FAIR thing to do IMHO. cheers TN the Racist or Equalist (you decide)... is that a word ? .. well it should be !

Topic #1: The justification of juxtaposition of the "good books" JPINFV: This is your personal value judgement ONLY, but let us keep supporting the oppressive nature of the "hide the womens faces group" then 'keep the uneducated masses down and controlled" and interpret the "good books" for those followers, heck its just the Taliban / Al-Qaeda way. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al-Qaeda Topic 2 the Invasion of Canada. Ahem: Best look to your history books .. we Kanukistanian's yea Ok so we conscripted a few Brits too, came down for a "visit" in 1812/1814 and burned your White House OUT. A direct result just because YALL pissed us off wasting perfectly good tea ! We left because we ran out of booze and went home, can you blame us ? (this tax thing is just evil foreshadowing in the grand scheme of my long winded point) Sooo: DON'T MAKE US DO IT AGAIN ! And our Canadian Security Intelligence Service ( CSIS ) well what can I say, they are brilliant they have located the booze cabinet and where you hid the silverware from last time ... just a caution to YALL USA has Night Vision Goggles. Canada has SNOW (just try to hide in that)<insert very evil laugh> During 9/11 an Air Cabbage Flight that was planned to be hijacked, but it "broke down" and this is how we know that "stashed" box cutters were used to overpower the Hijackers, go figure EH must have been CSIS figured that one out ? Topic 2: The crazy before coffee ramblings. And agreed no ONE country did attack the trade centers it was a Jihad movement and using one of the "good books" to justify their attack. Now because of very lax immigration laws (Canadian Government being dang near criminal) then factor in the North Americas Industrial Might and "globalization plan" to rape and plunder the primary resources as fast as possible/profitable, importing low income laborers once again based on the tolerance and religious freedom concept. Would you like to hear my theory on just why there was an economic global resection, nah you would not believe that the oil barons were attempting to control the biggest "piece" of the expense pie labour. Topic 3: The conspiracy theory. BTW I heard that an "out of work architect" said that the twin towers fell "too fast" So just how fast will an loaded with full fuel Airline size aircraft impacting a building at cruise speed is supposed to fall a building 9is there an EBM study ?)well that is way beyond my diminutive comprehension. Some claim this attack was staged by BUSH himself to start a War against the Axis of Evil ... ah you got to love the whacker conspiracy theorists. Topic 4: bureaucratic domination. Meanwhile back with feet planted firmly on the ground. Thanks to Richard B. and his "in-sight" that the bureaucrat's and building codes in NYC will stall the entire process is almost humorous. So a Question: Has this peace loving and sensitive to the feelings of New Yorkers, has this Muslim group applied for "tax exempt status" and have they applied for a "development grant" this is what is occurring in Canada. MY tax dollars are given to "groups" to build their "houses of worship" and I have zero say in it all (called vote buying by some) So in my hood the minarets are popping up everywhere I look and the grain elevators are disappearing at an alarming rate ... ! cheers

Agreed: And to add that 2 BASE jumpers (very similar senario) had to be rescued near SQUAMISH CHIEF WALL just this week .. yup these clowns should pay for their "misadventures" ... but who do you send the bill to when they are ded ? Their Mothers ? Meanwhile back in AB I returned from a search (mentioned prior) with parts missing from my boat and aggravated an old injury ... (all on my head) theres no way in hell that I will send my "expenses" to a family in light of a very tragic accident. Wear a PFD (even if one is a strong swimmer) when around water that is fast moving .... PLEASE.

In regards to BEorP comments is this CTV story just based out of our Nations Capital where there is ALS ? PNN did not provide a link to the CTV story ... it just got my goat I guess.

So you believe that a double standard should exist well thats completely an oxymoronic statement . Congratulations BFO you just did a knee jerk post and made yourself foolish I think its a realistic comment its simply a caution, sensitive to others beliefs but just how family planning entered into this is beyond me frankly, just an illustration perhaps. Just a simple question(s): Do you live in North America ? Do you live in NYC ? Were you involved directly with a blatant attack on the USA's economic infrastructure as that would make your very emotional responses a bit more justifiable. More question (s): Did you view the U-Tube factual historical perspective and opinion (without hate in the mans heart) Then backed by reference's from the Koran ? I think not because the history is irrefutable. Peoples actions prove far stronger than any words ... my Fathers old adage has never failed me yet. Irrelevant and intended to be abusive, I personally have no named deity, so just how do you respond to that agnostic view PLEASE don't bother answering that, your knowledge of theology may be seriously challenged. Oh so dropping the F bomb and flaming is now a tangible way to influence a professional group striving to be recognized as an respected group of health care providers. I can see the emotion in your rant care for an ativan. Well stated Lone Star I don't believe the "radicals" are sensitive in the slightest. I believe they are gloating in their victory not only of the cowardice act but now very pleased that a sign that have won for Jihad. I am bookmarking these posts from Bushy, as it will be very interesting for my children to read in 25 years. I started this thread ... now due to the very strong emotion perhaps we should just now watch wait ... (إن شاء الله)

So ... did R-J have permission to post www.emtcity.com reference and details ? If this becomes legal precedent then what will happen is R-J trying to change the age of information ? Is this why they call newspapers like this a RAG ?

What is "legal" is not necessarily politically correct or sensitive or even respectful of other religions like the ones that actually built and shaped North America ? This situation will be repeated once the precedent has been established, as in the the minaret (just look to the UK [where today one can see the minaret right next to the Houses of Parliament] now a minaret next to the Twin Towers memorial ? Or that lovely and hardly "keep women down" Burka just what womens lib group are supporter of this sign of oppression ? http://network.nationalpost.com/np/blogs/holy-post/archive/2009/10/07/muslim-group-calls-for-burka-ban-in-canada.aspx Radical Muslims or not, IMHO this a recipe for ongoing controversy and hatred .. not tolerance its a one way street apparently, this building of a mosque goes much deeper. Now factor in the these most serious controversy's in Belgium, Italy, France, OZ to mention a few this protest of many New Yorkers is not without merit. The difference in philosophy of the USA (a melting pot) compared to the rights insane Kanukistan (multiculturalism) no blending of culture it is most seriously becoming just isolated communities and very tribal in nature (man has not developed enough) just look to the "cultural gangs" being the true litmus paper. We have observed what has happened in Bosnia/Rwanda ++, those "cultural differences" did start civil wars ... FACT ! http://www.cogwriter.com/news/religious-news/burqa-banning-in-belgium-italy-france-and-australia/ http://journalistaward.stop-discrimination.info/fileadmin/ja08/Winning_articles/198_JA_EN.pdf http://www.unitedhumanrights.org/genocide/genocide_in_rwanda.htm http://www.islamawareness.net/Europe/Bosnia/ Or maybe I am completely off base ? I dunno but time and "repeating of history" will tell all .... at the end of the day. cheers

Yikes and I thought I was long winded ...

Yea its kinda confuzzing at the best of times .

Many places are "contracted" out.

http://www.loudat.com/deadmau5-chopsnmash-doctor-werewolf-uber-edit/ I got to get me one of these ... Bhwaa Haa Ha !

I read the link and what a load of shyte, put anything on the web and your bound (almost an expectation) to have people cut, copy, paste Hell it increases circulation fer F***'s sake ... how daft is this RJ group anyway are they loosing circulation to the point of relying on revenue from lawsuits ... they should be thanking not suing I believe I do owe EMT CITY support for keeping my "relative" sanity over the many years, the links, the debates, valued paramedical opinions, the contacts +++ ... so count me in !!! This SCOT is up for wee fight as William Wallace once stated ... FREEDOM and where is the donation page ? Contact PM for other alternative strategies as in a "web war" Bhwaa Haa Ha <insert evil laughter> as others are considering filing a counterclaim I say go for it ... the news article "linked" was first advanced to myself on EMS1.com NOT EMT City . CHEERS

Firstly: Please take off the BCAS blinders as the CUPE rose coloured glasses it is are not becoming of you. Are you suggesting that kiwi does not have one iota of knowledge concerning the recent events in BC .. pfft. I believe that his "general statements" are most correct that the union busting environment in BC by Comrade Campbell is more than obvious AND that change is in the (very smoky)WIND ! Besides the Union action of putting a holding practicums is akin to shooting yourselves in the foot ! So would that be first hand enough for you ? btw some take great offence at critical, constructive observation from a short distance . So: Perhaps you can give us the "skinny" on just how many successful jurisprudence exam writers at the PCP and ACP Level from other provinces and under the AIT agreement in the last year ? Welcome to "globalization" in passing and please add in the USA REMT-P that have been given BC licensing. ______ numbers svp ? Comment: Its my bet your looking at at LEAST quadruple the number of grads that your presently producing. So back on topic for fun shall we ? The resultant fall out of reducing scope of practice in Ontario. Just what is your opinion about this situation ? Do you think that the rather impressive and well educated PCP from ONT (but now rather dismayed and many unemployed or semi employed) will not seek "greener pastures" in an area where they are allowed to practice to their full scope, say for example BC ? I wonder how many grads are pumped out of ONT programs ...Oh yes dont forget and Holland College too. Just how many CAF sponsored student are disillusioned ... just search and read their forum site to hear what they are saying. http://forums.army.ca/forums/index.php?topic=86579.30 Now with recent events in BC and those looking for viable alternatives in education (NOT TIED to Union actions) how many BC PCP have gone to "fast track" their education to ACP across the "pine beetle defended" AB/BC border ? ____ numbers svp? Do dare open my yap in the BC super unionized environment to say that CUPE 873 president John Strohmeier has failed you miserably to the point of an EPIC FAIL ? Point being having field practicums and educational institutes and union married together is folly for any forward progressive development for Ambulance Service in BC. No, I guess I will not I would not like to be reprimanded from someone actually living and paying HST in BC, thats just living the dream I guess ? I visited a very Northern Ambulance Station Ft. Nelson with travels to Nelson as well and just recently to find a deplorable "attitude" generally speaking and especially towards out of province practitioner's that are now licensed in BC. I guess its pretty scary thing looking down the barrel of private EMS operations on the door step and those that have superior medical abilities and are not limited by BC regulations/ legislation, I highly suspect that Campbell wishes to "revisit" the Emergency and Health Services Act and Emergency Medical Assistants Regulation as with the sweep of his magic wand (as in Bill 21) things WILL CHANGE. Most Honestly the Part Time vs the Full Time inter departmental fighting is JUST what the government types are hoping for: Its called the divide and conquer technique of Union Busting ... for shame falling into that Leg hold trap. That said: I sat with a Peter an ACP (Flight) out of PG at the Edmonton ESSO FBO (just yesterday) to find a completely different attitude, very positive, open and very professional. In fact attempting to recruit experienced flight side personnel as I was informed the whiny YVR types did not wish to relocate to PG and there has been openings for the last year ... hmmm interesting. Well if I polish my crystal ball just a bit an attitude adjustment is coming the BC way IMHO. cheers

This from an island with flightless and funny looking birds,thats half the size of AB ? te he. Kiwi your observations are correct, overcoming the hurdle of standardization is most difficult as health care delivery is provincial jurisdiction. Now reciprocity (provincial) could become even be more complex when ONT has restricted scope of practice at the PCP/EMT level ... even though the PCP in ONT is far better educated. Then the group nepotism of our College Council believing somehow that AB ACP are the leaders in a regulatory body .. hell they don't teach malaria, cholera, marine stings or snake bite treatment in the schools .. hey maybe the council needs a real ACP to lead the way <insert heavy sarcasm > Here is another oddity .. RSI for ACP is pretty much a "given" in AB but in BC and ONT (best of my knowledge) RSI is limited to flight side ONLY .. that said with transition to the perfect government operated service (AB AHS) and limiting the medical directors to just a handful, I can see the guidelines become regressive as well, much to my personal disapproval. I believe that the EBM studies generated of the USA are negatively affecting Canadian Standards and scope of practice .. damn that Wang et all ! As for the "spy talkers" ie Kabec. I don't believe the rest of Canada really cares what they do ... as they do everything ass backwards anyway and do not "listen well" in english. At the end of this day, it is a sad day for the advancement of the Paramedic Profession in Kanukistan and moreover for the Canadian public that we serve. I am hoping that someone from out east in ONT could explain the rationale behind this newest retarded move. no joy
