I forgot to post last night but this is the norm in our hospital's birth center unless surgery is involved. My ex held one leg and sister the other wearing their street clothes. They just had to sanitize their hands.

And yet these hospital administrators are dumbfounded why MRSA and other staff infections that patients don't come in with but leave with (if they survive) are on the rise?

Duh!

By analyzing genetic material on $1 bills, the NYU researchers identified 3,000 types of bacteria in all—many times more than in previous studies that examined samples under a microscope. Even so, they could identify only about 20% of the non-human DNA they found because so many microorganisms haven't yet been cataloged in genetic data banks.

The DNA was as diverse as New York. About half of it was human. The researchers found bacteria, viruses, fungi and plant pathogens. They saw extremely minute traces of anthrax and diphtheria. They identified DNA from horses and dogs—even a snippet or two of white rhino DNA.

Easily the most abundant species they found is one that causes acne. Others were linked to gastric ulcers, pneumonia, food poisoning and staph infections, the scientists said. Some carried genes responsible for antibiotic resistance.

Also have many a fun thunderstorm at Disney story. My favorite is one at Typhoon Lagoon. It wasn't all that warm of a day, so it wasn't very crowded. Storm came up very quickly, so they didn't have the usual warning time - heck, we were still in the wave pool when the lightening started. The lifeguards quickly herded everyone under the little thatch huts and wouldn't let us out! What a show - 9 lightening strikes on the rods on the top of the huts and the different little buildings on the beach. After it cleared (only about 15 minutes), the guests all left and they kept the attractions closed for another hour. We stayed and had a couple drinks at Let's Go Slurpin' and then once they opened - and the bright sun was back out - we rode every slide, etc with zero wait. Fairly certain there were more CMs than guests and at the top of a few of the slides, they were quite happy to see us.

The best place for those storms, though, is definitely as @MinnieM123 said, sitting on the balcony or deck of your room watching. So relaxing!

Yep, they have to wait awhile. They use a Thor system. It has to give the all clear sound before the guards can let the patrons back in the water.

Once while we on the bus from POR to a park, lightening stuck the pine trees off to the side of the road. I never seen such a large fireball in a matter of seconds. Bus driver very matter-of-factually picks up his radio microphone and calls RC Fire to report the fire and just kept tootling along like it was an every day occurrence, like it most likely is.

Wow! Very interesting!

We sure have long weekends here.

I wish they were longer.. Saturday goes by so fast and Sunday is about 11 hours long. :(

I saw that prototype a few years back in Disneyland back in 2005. Good job, but, still doesn't look like a human. My thoughts go back to Hymie in "Get Smart".

What attraction was it developed into at Disneyland? Or did it never get out of the imagineering prototype phase?

Edit: I can't find it in 2005 at Disneyland, Please provide link please

Yikes! That bus ride you had sounded really scary and unnerving, to say the least. :eek:
Honestly, I was around 10 at the time, and while I was scared while it was happening, the full effect never struck (pun intended) me fully, so after we were safe I've just always been like "Hey, I was on a bus that got struck by lightning!" I think that attitude has served me well because my family has a propensity towards fear of thunderstorms, so now unless the wind is blowing really hard, I'm just like, "Hey I was on a bus that was struck by lightning and nothing happened!" I was terrified of storms before that, but now they don't bother me and when a bad one comes around, I react without getting panicked.

"Hymie?"
"My father's name was Hymie."
"Fine, call him whatever you want."

"Hymie?"
"My father's name was Hymie."
"Well, it's very nice."

"My name is Hymie."
"Hymie?"
"His father's name was Hymie!"

:joyfull:I've watched too much Get Smart
