BSN vs BS major in nursing
>>
http://allnurses.com/forums/f17/bsn-vs-bs-major-nursing-104537.html
The technical difference in the 2 degrees is usually in the administrative oversight of the school -- and that rarely makes a difference in the quality of the program.
A BS is a degree offered by the university as a whole. They offer bachelor's degrees in a variety of different majors, but each program is governed by the school as a whole. In most cases, the top faculty/administrator in each department has a title such as "Department Chairman" or something like that. A "Dean" is then over multiple different departments.
A BSN is offered by a professional school that is separate entity unto itself. If the school of nursing is part of a larger university, there will be connections between the larger school and the school of nursing -- but the school of nursing will have its own "Dean" and more political independence.
In most cases, it makes no difference to the students or to the design/quality of the program. If the program you are considering is part of a reputable university and accredited, then I wouldn't worry about it either way. Some people prefer one organizational structure -- others prefer the opposite structure.

craigslisting instead of studying...
An actual post on craigs list. i love craigs list. so much amusement.
under free stuff, titled: breast milk
Hi,
my baby is two mnths old and we're moving to California. I have about 20 baggies about 1-3oz. each of good milk that I can't take with me since it's frozen and needs to be kept that way. The flight is just too long. Too bad.
I'd like to pass it to a woman in need, if perhaps you can't produce milk or whatever other reason.
..willing to meet somewhere closer to you, but am moving on Fri.
please, ONLY SERIOUS REPLIES
thank you
...goodness. just think of the immunoglobulins some other baby would get from this woman!

hilarious craigslist post
Craig's list post -Wall Street Analysis of Gold Diggers.
ORIGINAL INQUIRY
What am I doing wrong?
Okay, I'm tired of beating around the bush. I'm a beautiful (spectacularly beautiful) 25 year old girl. I'm articulate and classy. I'm not from New York. I'm looking to get married to a guy who makes at least half a million a year. I know how that sounds, but keep in mind that a million a year is middle class in New York City, so I don't think I'm overreaching at all.
Are there any guys who make 500K or more on this board? Any wives? Could
you send me some tips? I dated a business man who makes average around 200 - 250. But that's where I seem to hit a roadblock. 250,000 won't get me to central park west. I know a woman in my yoga class who was married to an investment banker and lives in Tribeca, and she's not as pretty as I am, nor is she a great genius. So what is she doing right? How do I get to her level?
Here are my questions specifically:
- Where do you single rich men hang out? Give me specifics- bars, restaurants, gyms
-What are you looking for in a mate? Be honest guys, you won't hurt my feelings
-Is there an age range I should be targeting (I'm 25)?
Why are some of the women living lavish lifestyles on the upper east side so plain? I've seen really 'plain jane' boring types who have nothing to offer married to incredibly wealthy guys. I've seen drop dead gorgeous girls in singles bars in the east village. What's the story there?
- Jobs I should look out for? Everyone knows - lawyer, investment banker, doctor. How much do those guys really make? And where do they hang out? Where do the hedge fund guys hang out?
- How you decide marriage vs. just a girlfriend? I am looking for MARRIAGE ONLY
Please hold your insults - I'm putting myself out there in an honest way. Most beautiful women are superficial; at least I'm being up front about it. I wouldn't be searching for these kind of guys if I wasn't able to match them - in looks, culture, sophistication, and keeping a nice home and hearth.

THE ANSWER
Dear Pers-431649184:
I read your posting with great interest and have thought meaningfully about your dilemma. I offer the following analysis of your predicament. Firstly, I'm not wasting your time, I qualify as a guy who fits your bill; that is I make more than $500K per year. That said here's how I see it.
Your offer, from the prospective of a guy like me, is plain and simple a cr@ppy business deal. Here's why. Cutting through all the B.S., what you suggest is a simple trade: you bring your looks to the party and I bring my money. Fine, simple. But here's the rub, your looks will fade and my money will likely continue into perpetuity...in fact, it is very likely that my income increases but it is an absolute certainty that you won't be getting any more beautiful!
So, in economic terms you are a depreciating asset and I am an earning asset. Not only are you a depreciating asset, your depreciation accelerates! Let me explain, you're 25 now and will likely stay pretty hot for the next 5 years, but less so each year. Then the fade begins in earnest. By 35 stick a fork in you!
So in Wall Street terms, we would call you a trading position, not a buy and hold...hence the rub...marriage. It doesn't make good business sense to "buy you" (which is what you're asking) so I'd rather lease. In case you think I'm being cruel, I would say the following. If my money were to go away, so would you, so when your beauty fades I need an out. It's as simple as that. So a deal that makes sense is dating, not marriage.
Separately, I was taught early in my career about efficient markets. So, I wonder why a girl as "articulate, classy and spectacularly beautiful" as you has been unable to find your sugar daddy. I find it hard to believe that if you are as gorgeous as you say you are that the $500K hasn't found you, if not only for a tryout.
By the way, you could always find a way to make your own money and then we wouldn't need to have this difficult conversation.
With all that said, I must say you're going about it the right way. Classic "pump and dump." I hope this is helpful, and if you want to enter into some sort of
lease, let me know.

"Life is one Big Nursing Note"
Today I'd liked to share my clinical opportunity:
I learned that different colored IVs mean different gages. WHo never told me this?
18-green
20-pink
22-blue
24-yellow
(blood can only be given in pink/green or larger) fyi
also, nice quote i thought i'd post:
"Life is one Big Nursing Note" thanks to laurel
And then I'd like to officially apologize to my nursing friends who suffered b/c i arrived at clinical 1 min late and they had to stay 1 min later all because of me. Needless to say, I'm learning about the repercussions of my actions.

After living in the library, I've realized . . .
-it only feels good to sit in the rolly chairs
-i can hear ppl even though they are in separate rooms
-markers make the boards colorful
-ppl with earphone's still yell at other ppl to be quiet
-i can spend a full hour of good study time checking facebook
-the temperature never gets warmer
-the bathrooms always have that one door that never shuts all the way
-my water bottle runs out before i do
-there's always that stupid alarm that goes off after 12a
-vending machines, instead of giving u something to eat, eat your money
-laptop batteries die quicker at the library
-i go to the bathroom way too much
-google is my friend
-there's a lady that actually lives here...in the library
-my two twin boyfriends in the library, finally changed their study
locations (i think i scared em with my lucious lips)
-i can hear rochelle laugh from two floors away :)
-young and al like to talk to their boyfriends
-u can never have enough snacks
- the 3rd sink in the restroom never shuts off
- there are certain groups of people here all the time
- study rooms were made to socialize
- almost everyone with a laptop/computer in front of them is not studying
-anyone who is smiling is not studying
-i spend more time here then i do in my actual home
