Unfortunately, Israelis are not as smart as the Iranians... We have to rely on "made in U.S.A." junk... ( not even stealthy :dunno: ) Poor us...

My personal opinion is that if you REALLY want to become a pilot and have aviation in your blood - you will always find a way to raise the money... Becoming a Private Pilot in the U.S. is really a piece of cake when you compare the astronomical costs and endless exams required abroad... I...

Emergency care providers are confronted with that kind of dilemma on a daily basis. Most of the time, your patients are stable, you do not need to intervene ( except maybe for O2, IV access and monitoring )... There are times however, when you need to draw the big guns and provide...

You fully understood what I said and meant - if her neurologic, airway, ventilation and hemodynamic parameters were OK - and you have the right training, experience and equipment, you can start treatment and reevaluate the patient after a while...as long as the patient is stable there is no need...

+ 1 She needs to travel in a pressurized astronaut suit...

An experienced emergency care provider can generally perform a reliable evaluation of the case severity... The patient didn't appear to be crashing...if she was fully conscious, without a dramatic tachypnea - and with a good hemodynamic status...I would have taken a similar decision... The...

Not sure what the airlines carry today in their medical kits... Back in the nineties, EL-AL had Solu-Medrol ( methylprednisolone )and Ultracorten ( Prednisolone ) in the emergency pack...

The physician was an experienced anesthesiologist. He had access to advanced life support gear. If the patient's condition had worsened, he could have performed endotracheal intubation and ventilated the patient with a BVM ( Ambu Bag ) and supplemental oxygen. He established IV access...

We pay around 50 cents per capsule - it's probably the ONLY item that is actually cheaper here...:D The capsules are made of aluminum - not plastic ( Indeed, the combination of hot water and plastic would be a very bad idea...) At first I was skeptical about the tiny Nespresso...

In my case they sprayed the attic's floor, not the roof... I was advised against applying the foam under the tiles / shingles.... Sprayed foam ( closed cell ) will provide the best insulation for a very long period of time...it's worth every penny. I wouldn't use anything else...

Adam, I totally agree with Tony...polyurethane foam is the best insulation you can get - it's worth every penny. If your roof / attic is properly ventilated ( and it should because it really helps keeping temperature under control during the summer ) then the polyurethane vapors shouldn't be...

I use a Nespresso machine ( Néstlé ). They are very popular in Europe and in Israel. It's worked flawlessly for the past 5 years... It's extremely easy to use and maintain....works with coffee capsules ( espresso, lungo...) There is a large choice of coffee varieties, all of them...

I purchased a Zagg shield for my Ipad a year ago... I didn't like the product...sticky and very difficult to apply... I then purchased a standard shield at Wal Mart and was very satisfied...it only took a few seconds to apply. Before applying the shield, THOROUGHLY clean the screen with...

That's true - try not to strain... Not true...holding it off for too long causes constipation and worsens the situation...

From what I read.... 1. Eat a LOT of raw vegetables ( cabbage, lettuce, beet, spinach ) and lots of fiber ( oatmeal, bran flakes, etc..) - REAL vegetable soup is fine too ( not the poison you buy in cans or bags at the supermarket ) 2. Don't eat meat, sausage, processed foods, white bread...

You can get a Breitling Aerospace for around 3K.... Very stylish, very light, almost indestructible ( made of titanium ), very reliable... It's the most functional aviation watch IMHO - and the choice of many Israeli pilots...
