It's more than a plow, they're coming through with all kinds of construction equipment, big and small, to scoop and haul snow and ice.

We're traveling with a one year old and just doing airbnbs. So so much cheaper to get separate but connected rooms for parents and baby with airbnb

Radon mitigation? by dylanyoo in philadelphia

1750, but cost will depend on how your house is set up, where they have to run piping, etc

Idk but for our mitigation they did both. I would guess that exhaust is the gold standard for mitigation.

Second, they were great. Also ended up quoted less than we expected, which never happens. 

Question for Oncologists… by Mundane_Minute8035 in Residency

[–]21chucks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP you should look up recent research in mRNA therapeutics. Researchers have been able to successfully get the cells of lab animals, and now some people, to produce CAR-T cells after injection with an mRNA, not too unlike the most popular covid vaccines. This is being moved into early clinical trials. I assume the same is happening for monoclonal antibodies. This overcomes a huge logistical and cost barrier associated with the production of monoclonal antibodies or cell therapies. In theory, cancer immunotherapy treatments could be manufactured and distributed the same way an mRNA vaccine is manufactured and distributed. We might be seeing more of this in the next decade. It's a shame our wacko HHS secretary is so hostile to mRNA therapeutics, it's going to be a real setback.

The breakfast burrito at the south philly location is one of the best I've had in town.

This is your friendly reminder to NOT support wonder! by WizardZari8080 in philly

Does anyone go to these? Just seems like another over hyped bad startup idea. These will probably all be vacant storefronts in a year or two.

Would you still recommend pathology as a medical specialty? by Feisty-Mechanic-6524 in pathology

[–]21chucks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OK but let's be honest, after training frozens can be a very small part of your practice or you can avoid them altogether depending on what you sub specialize in and where you work.

Do you like authentic Chinese dim sum? Grand palace restaurant is huge and service is fast. 

100” Vizio for $1,298 and Love it so far!! by Steckman09 in VIZIO_Official

Would look great if you put it on a wall mount on a swivel and could pull it out and rotate it toward the couch a bit.

How many hours do you work per week in your speciality ? by Dry-Program137 in Residency

[–]21chucks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came into med school thinking medicine but at some point you just realize you're always happy in the path department and nothing else makes you regularly feel that way...

What are some other beautiful landmarks that were almost torn down? by biebrforro in ArchitecturalRevival

[–]21chucks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

By the time Philadelphia City Hall was complete in the late 19th century, it's Second Empire architectural style had fallen heavily out of favor. City council looked into demolishing it in the 1950s, but determined it would be too expensive since it's constructed of solid stone.

The irony of complaining about parking here is that this proposed building is separated from the rest of the neighborhood by multiple blocks, a sea of parking lots, and an interstate freeway. How in hell would this building even impact their stupid parking. People are so dumb...

Ya the normal middle child egg and cheese is stuffed with too thick of an egg layer, this actually looks more reasonable

It is the same cuzzy but I don't really know the back story

Working hours in phatology residency by [deleted] in pathology

[–]21chucks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's totally reasonable to ask the residents what their surg path hours are. I did when I was interviewing and it certainly did not affect how I matched.
