The latest Russian asteriod
First, thank goodness no-one was killed outright, though I did read someone had a spine injury. Recovery hopes for all.
Second, the whole town could have been immolated from the force of the explosion, but the detonation happened just high enough only some came to the surface.
Lastly, had that happened, and we didn’t have dash-cam video to explain it, would Islamists have been the first blamed? Russia has had a bad time with them (though the US led war has seemed to concentrate their attention on us), but there’s no love lost. Nobody predicted this asteroid, so there wouldn’t have been an extraterrestrial...

Press Ganey, meet Wong-Baker
For those not actively engaged in the practice of medicine, this will mean nothing to you. For those of us in the trenches:
I cannot wait for the day the government realizes this misguided effort is costing them Billions (and harming patients and providers).

Fort Worth Officer Shot by Drug Suspect Released From Hospital | NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth
A Hero to me
A Fort Worth officer who was shot three times last week in Haltom City by a drug suspect left the hospital Thursday afternoon.
Officer John Bell was shot in the right eye socket, right hip joint and left hand on Jan. 29 while assisting Haltom City police.

“A whole lot’s been made out of this, and I’m really humbled by it,” Bell said minutes after he was discharged. “Everybody’s so nice and saying, ‘Yo...

IRS: Cheapest Obamacare Plan Will Be $20,000 Per Family | CNS News
“Affordable” Care act.
Under Obamacare, Americans will be required to buy health insurance or pay a penalty to the IRS.
The IRS’s assumption that the cheapest plan for a family will cost $20,000 per year is found in examples the IRS gives to help people understand how to calculate the penalty they will need to pay the government if they do not buy a mandated health plan.
The examples point to families of four and families of five, both of which the IRS expects in its assumptions to pay a minimum of $20,000 per year for a bronze plan.
“The annual national average bronze plan premium for a family of 5 (2 ...

BS Study*: Doctors Feel Patients’ Pain | Empathy | LiveScience
Been a while since I pulled out the BS flag, and this seems entirely appropriate:
Good doctors really do feel their patients’ pain.
Hmm. ‘Good’ doctors?
A study, published today (Jan. 29) in the journal Molecular Psychiatry, shows that when doctors see their patients experiencing pain, the pain centers in the physicians’ own brains light up. And when the doctors give treatment to relieve pain, it activates the physicians’ reward centers.
The doctors were then instructed either to use an electronic device that they believed would relieve the patients’ pain, or to withhold the pain relief....
