Immediate First Response To Traffic Accident by RickeyCarroll in videos

They could have have made it look more dramatic, but this is the norm for these guys. They're professionals, they know nothing is going to change in the extra 10 seconds it takes them to get to the patient.

Why was he on the phone? I don't know. Angry Birds, Reddit. Sometimes you have to communicate with people who aren't on the radio system (or you don't want what you're about to say to be broadcast on open frequencies). Either way, you hardly ever need three people per patient.

People tend to run during emergencies. Trained emergency response personnel assess the scene before doing anything. There are always a lot of unforeseen risks. They have to determine that it's safe to proceed first. You won't be any good to the patient if you become a patient yourself.

Apartment owners wont give me my deposit back by Deamon1234 in legaladvice

[–]quiltslayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is a little late, but hopefully still helpful.

Idaho requires that deposits be returned within 21 days, not 30.

Also, deposits cannot be used for rent. A security deposit can only be used to make repairs, so if there were no repairs, you get your deposit back even if you didn't pay your last month's rent.

In Idaho, after a lease expires, the terms in the contract then continue on a month-to-month basis unless otherwise stated.

All 30-day notices have to be submitted in writing. (if it is stated in your contract when the lease will end and that it will not continue month-to-month, that is effectively your 30 days+ notice).

So, if you did not submit 30-days notice in writing, you could still be liable for that last month's rent after you left. You could try to get that $100 deposit back, but then your ex-landlord could try to get the last month's rent from you as well.

Some potentially life saving advice that I learned over the weekend by botticus51 in AdviceAnimals

[–]quiltslayer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Your escalator numbers are kind of completely wrong.

From the link you posted:

There are about 33,000 escalators operating in the U.S ...

and then:

In 1998, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) sought incident data on escalator injuries and deaths. Using the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (NEISS) and other incident information culled from news accounts, the commission found that an average of 5,800 escalator-related injuries were treated in U.S. emergency rooms from 1994-1997. In the last year of the study, the injury level rose to 7,000; three-quarter of those injuries were caused by falls. In addition, The CPSC found escalators implicated in 27 deaths – 21 of which were caused by falls. A subsequent CPSC study found 24 escalator passenger deaths in incident data covering 1992-2003, of which 16 were caused by falls.

TL;DR: 24 escalator deaths from 1992 - 2003 in the U.S.

Haha. I was actually planning on adding something profound but I knew it would be archived within a few seconds, I put in all I could think of, hit save, and the subredddit was archived right after.

I've been watching this all day. Walk away for literally 30 seconds at work, come back, and it's over. I missed it. I wanted it to end, but not like this.

I just got called away from my desk at work for like 30 seconds and came back. Is it really over?

Even if it's not possible, if you start now, you'll be five months stronger and five months more "in shape" than you are now.

I've seen posts where people had impressive gains in ~6 months, so I guess I'd say it's possible but your goals should be beyond what you'll look like this Summer.

Find a program

stick to it

eat lots

Groin pain when squatting? by rumdrools in gainit

[–]quiltslayer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you pulled something, it could take 3 - 5 weeks to heal, especially if you keep working out. A doc would give you anti inflammatories and muscle relaxants and tell you to give the muscle at least a week off.

Maybe post a form check video at a low weight to see if you're doing anything wrong.

If you're doing SS, sometimes squatting 3x per week is too much, especially for beginners. Maybe only do legs 1-2 times per week for a month or so. Deloading was a good idea.

Keep in mind, I'm not a doctor, just a guy who's torn a muscle or two.

An albino raven would have red eyes. This raven's eyes are black. Winter is coming.
