190 Years A Dallas anesthesiologist was sentenced Wednesday to 190 years in prison for injecting a nerve-blocking agent and other drugs into bags of intravenous fluid at a surgical center where he worked, leading to the death of a coworker and causing cardiac emergencies for several patients. The emergencies began 2 days after Raynaldo Rivera Ortiz Jr., MD, was notified of a disciplinary inquiry into an incident during which he allegedly "deviated from the standard of care" during an anesthesia procedureopens in a new tab or window when a patient experienced a medical emergency. Ortiz, who had a history of disciplinary actions against him, complained to other physicians that the center was trying to "crucify" him. Court documents show that Ortiz, who was arrested in September 2022 and convicted in Aprilopens in a new tab or window, waived his appearance at sentencing in federal court.

Be merciful. Kill her.

Lol

Jon would still hit it. Tulsi, that is.

Therein lies the rub. At any given point, you're three days away from society starting to crumble in any urban area.

@Klaus said in Why you stay fat: I don't quite understand how this is supposed to work. The body can't make fat out of thin air. Unless you eat more than you burn, you won't get fat. So you'd only get fatter if either that "memory" somehow causes you to eat more, or somehow causes you to burn less. Without reading the study, I'd say that the fat cells are more efficient at converting any extra calories above the ketoric state into fat.

Very cool!

The only people that think the criminals are the smartest people in the room are the criminals.

@George-K That does look like fun, but unfortunately I (and probably you) dont have that kind of money. @jon-nyc Too funny.

@Jolly said in Meanwhile, in Pittsburgh...: I don't think Leno has much of a star complex He's always struck me as being a nice and humble guy. Wealthy AF, but basically a kind person. He's taken over custodial care of Mavis, his wife, who is suffering from dementia.

Heh… “Hi Vlad. How ya doin?”

@LuFins-Dad said in Watching football 6 hours a day must be 16: I think the genuine disinterest was a big part of it. If I had done it specifically to meet girls it wouldn’t have worked. Yeah there's a fine line which apparently I cross. @Horace You will be delighted to know that while I cannot quantify this line, I consider it uber-coherent to acknowledge its presence and that I indeed crossed it!
