Revenue pressure was even brought down to the level of nurses – some of whom say they have been pushed to charge for the smallest of items from Kleenexes to batteries. One 2022 email, obtained by the Guardian, shows a supervisor at Parkview DeKalb telling nurses that she had reviewed their charts for the week and found they had “missed” $50,000 in charges as a team. The following year, managers told staff to be more stringent about how many linen towels they handed out to patients – an initiative they termed “linen stewardship”.

...

This fiscal year it found roughly $140m to pour into capital projects across greater Fort Wayne – investments that, a Moody’s report from July noted, will help further its goal of regional expansion.

Also mentioned in the article....some hospitals have their own private police forces.

Aww. Looks like her fur is standing on end. But she's pretty brave, getting so close to the Ungeheuer (monster). Nice to see her exploring her new home.

It's a lot, but the sandwiches are huge. NYC is the only place I've been where the sandwiches are usually big enough for 2-3 people.

It's also one of the cheaper cities to eat as a tourist. No need for restaurants, just grab a sandwich that lasts all day. Or cheap street food, or something from a hole in the wall. I love it there.

Yeah. Those keys on the piano are E and F. You can see those notes in the sheet music for the title track. Those long rows of notes are a bunch of E's and F's.

If you hit the play button in the bottom left corner, you can hear a computer-generated version of the song. Real version here.

I started learning a little about music theory. I've been interested for a while, but always thought I wouldn't be able to understand it. But it's doable, a little at a time.

And I've been going outside more. I spend too much time in front of the computer. It's nice to have fresh air and read, listen to music, or just take in the surroundings.

Good posture also helps you breathe better, which can help you feel more energized and concentrate better. Your diaphragm doesn't work right when you sit hunched over, so your breath gets more shallow.

If you ever need to talk a lot for work or some other reason, good posture is essential so your voice sounds good and doesn't get tired too easily.

And it helps strengthen your core, which is good for balance and other things.

Pünktchen is a very cute and fitting name.

Und doch verbleibt er die flauschige Zicke die ich immer lieben werde.

I love this sentence and your translation "sir floofs-a-lot." He looks too cute to be a jerk, but I guess appearances can be deceiving :)

Beautiful! What city is that near? And do you know if the mountains are always that red?

For me, it would have to be something nice, but not so interesting that I want to stay awake (Ariadne auf Naxos). Or something I've heard a million times (The Magic Flute).

Beethoven has always been calming for me, so maybe Fidelio too.

If you're looking for beautiful music, maybe Tosca or Rusalka.

There are others that I wouldn't necessarily fall asleep to, like Don Carlo, Pagliacci, Rigoletto, or La Traviata. This is a pretty good list of some of the best known operas.

They have been for a while now. It started before the API thing with subreddits that were basically mirrors of English ones. But (badly) auto translated into German.

A few weeks ago, the Google results got flooded with auto translations. You can still find stuff that was written in German, but you have to limit the search to German subs (site:reddit.com/r/de, for example).

Or check the sub name in the search results. If it's in German, you should be good. If it's in English, or if it doesn't show up at all, it's usually a machine translation.

Three months isn't a lot of time, so I would talk to a lawyer sooner rather than later. Google employment lawyers in your area, or "attorney referral service [your state]." You should be able to get a free consultation.

Some lawyers may be able to tell you right away if they'll take your case, but it may take a little time. And you may want to get more than one opinion. If you have any documents, round those up and hang onto them.
