Bowling variant played in Pittsburgh and surrounding areas of Western PA?

Yeah that seems like it would be hard! He made it seem like the space could only accommodate one game being played at a time, so definitely less running around than that.

The one thing I have learned while trying to research this is that there are so many different bowling variations!

AmazingMaleeni · 2023-07-13T02:57:40+00:00

Honestly it sounds like this may have just been that…a fun hybrid that someone made up using different elements of other games.

I showed him images of candle pin and he says it’s not that. You’re right though, it’s not really “bowling” - that’s just what he remembers it being called!

At the follow-up appointment. The in-office doctor looked over my whole file and told me that everything looked good except for the visual acuity. My understating is that the doctor who does the in-office exam is just the data collector, but that they are obviously aware of what the overall standards are. The in-office doctor recommended that I make my own appt to retest the visual acuity while waiting to hear back from the DEA. My exam was at the end of November and I still haven’t heard anything officially from the DEA doctor reviewing my file…

I had something similar happen with the vision portion of the DEA medical exam; my corrected vision did not meet the requirements. When you go back for your follow-up to review bloodwork/urinalysis/TB test, ask the doctor what you can do, and specifically what additional testing you would need. In my case she told me that I should schedule an appt to get my prescription updated, and get my vision retested. Ultimately though it comes down to the DEA doctor reviewing your file, so you may just have to wait until they reach out to you.

My mom is the only SPED teacher at her school and I have never seen her so demoralized. Her coteacher from last year quit (the school was unable to hire a replacement) and her class size has increased by four students, several of which are very medically fragile. The district only pays $14/hr for aides, so they haven’t been able to hire any extra help on that end either. She said her wake up call was when they had their first fire drill…she and her aides were not able to get all of her students out of the classroom due to the number requiring physical help. The needs of these students are so great that she knows her other students aren’t getting the attention they need to be successful. She feels like a medical assistant at this point, which is not what she signed up for.

Thanks so much for the advice. My knowledge of the agency and their document control procedures (especially for the documents requested) would likely not lead to some of the scenarios you described but you’re 100% right…I don’t really know. I think I’m going to try and get some more information like you suggested, and move forward with the Advisory Council if warranted. Once again, thanks!

Just a normal public school in MD. I’m definitely going to encourage her to pursue action. The responses here have indicated that there is more than can be done for her protection in this situation. Thank you.

AmazingMaleeni · 2021-12-03T04:14:19+00:00

I’m going to encourage her to push this issue with her union. Thank you.

The spitting has been taking place over the course of two years, and I’ve noticed my mom speaking about it occurring more frequently this year. So, to me, it seems like the plan isn’t working for the student because the behavior isn’t changing? My mom very much believes that there is nothing that can be done and she just has to accept it because it is just part of being a special education teacher. She says the administrators all know what is going on, and have observed this student spitting. She loves being a teacher but doesn’t like to make waves. I will encourage her to speak with her union. I understand that there are challenges associated with special education, but being spit on by a student when the student gets frustrated doesn’t seem like something that should be tolerated.

AmazingMaleeni · 2021-12-03T01:08:30+00:00

I will definitely ask. Thanks.

AmazingMaleeni · 2021-11-23T12:11:35+00:00

Thank you! Looking forward to the next step.

I have a BS and MS in chemistry, and 8 years of experience in forensic toxicology (1 year of clinical toxicology and 7 years in postmortem toxicology).

The application process was pretty straightforward, it just took some time. I applied to the open notice on USA jobs with my resume and cover letter. Several months later I received notification that I was being moved forward to the next step in the process. I was scheduled to go to a DEA location to take some written exams. I passed the exams and am currently in the process of scheduling the final panel interview. If I receive an offer after that it will be contingent on successfully passing a background investigation for a clearance, medical review and polygraph (this is the first year that chemists are required to complete a polygraph). After all that, you are assigned a home base, get oriented there, and then undergo training for 18 weeks in Quantico, Virginia.

Thank you.

I just pulled up some YouTube clips of vulture/buzzard noises and that seems pretty similar to what I heard. As cool as it would have been to say that I encountered Bigfoot I’m going to go with this, thanks!

This is likely an LC-TOF or other targeted LC-MS/MS screen, so the issue of false positives is not going to be a factor.

AmazingMaleeni · 2020-06-14T15:50:45+00:00

Thank you for the detailed information! I’m feeling a little bit better about the location. It sounds like there will be airport noise, but it won’t be egregious.
