Tell me again why anyone thinks Barky cares whether he has a mandate or not. We're talking about a guy who thinks he's had one since the moment he was born. We're just not smart enough to realize it. Click Here if you Like this Comment 1 person like this.
He has never had a mandate. That doesn't stop him from pushing socialism and fascism down our throats. I fear for my children and their lack of a future. And I am thoroughly ashamed of this country. Click Here if you Like this Comment 1 person like this.
How far does he push? All the way.The America of our Founding Fathers died last night.55 million people inexplicably voted to reelect a demagogue and unabashed ideologue, with a four year record of radicalism, over a pragmatist and good man. So, Obama will continue to steer the Ship of State toward socialism, and I don't see anything that would cause him to reverse course. He will have four more years to transform America: four more years to trash our economy in the name of fairness; four more years to weaken our military; four more years to make us even more irrelevant in a dangerous world; and four more years to ensure that Republicans never regain the White House. Democracy survived Obama's first term; I don't believe it will survive a second.Yes, Republicans kept the House. So what? An honorable president would be checked by a House held by the opposition. Obama has shown he is not an honorable man, and he will not be bound by that hoary Constitutional concept of "checks and balances."If it's as bad as I think it will be, millions will regret their vote, and our children and their children will curse us for what happened last night. And it won't take long: wait until Obamacare really kicks in; wait until people finally begin to realize that a high unemployment rate and anemic economy are natural consequences of Obama's vision; wait until they finally notice drastically deteriorating race relations.An aside: I am laying down my satirist's pen. Humor involving this man, his administration, and his Party is now, in my view, misplaced. There is nothing to laugh at any more. Click Here if you Like this Comment 1 person like this.

sagman is right. 0bama is going to push all the way, because there will be nothing to stand in his way. See the article posted just below this one from American Thinker today, "Obama's Second Term".

Most of Obama's policies were intentionally back loaded into 2013 and 2014. Be prepared to tell ignorant Obama voters and those who sat out this election "I told you so" a lot in the coming years when they complain about rising costs, poor health care services and no jobs.

#3 I couldn't agree more. If we had only followed the Constitution, Obama would not have happened. Now there is a precedent of ignoring the eligibility clause of the Constitution. Next time the Republicans should nominate Bibi Netanyahu. He comes closer to being an American than Obama. Click Here if you Like this Comment 1 person like this.
As bad as what happened last night was, and what it portends for our future, I must repectfully disagree with our Sagman. The America of our Founding Fathers died in April, 1865.

Even liberals are realizing that the Kenyan now owns it all. No more blaming Bush, and this is only going to get FAR worse. Trillions in debt with more required to feed the socialist beast the bleeding heart liberals created some 75 years ago. Today the #1 industry in this country is government, the looters, and they can only exist on the backs of taxpayers and massive foreign borrowing.Look for the "buyer's remorse" to kick in when the producers see their taxes increase by 20%, their healthcare quality decline, and their kids can't find meaningful jobs.

Sagman, I see this more as an unfinished script. The plot twist that initiates the final chase scene has just occurred. The antagonist has diabolically outwitted the good guys and emerged seemingly in control.

Yes there is hope.It's time to take a deep breath and develop a better plan for moving forward. The first step will be to jettison the northeastern liberal RINO block. They have done nothing for our nation other than to enjoy the years as the faithful minority party that enjoyed playing second fiddle. They gave us Bob Dole, not Ronald Reagan. Then John McCain. And they thought they were doing that with Mitt Romney. Too bad we didn't realize until the first debate that Romney really knew what he was talking about.The old view of not defending yourself against lies and more lies just doesn't cut it in today's world. It's a shame we have a nation of 50% that vote for a man because of his skin color and because he appeals to their narrow desire for what they think will benefit them in the short run.We will need a big picture guy with real vision, not someone to argue about fine tuning laws in place.Now is the time to really get tough in the House and refuse to negotiate with the moron elect. He does not know how to negotiate. Perhaps it is time for Boehner to step aside and let someone Obama hates with a passion, like Eric Cantor, lead the negotiation. We must not allow Obama to decide who the Republican leaders are.Plan for increasing the majority in the House in 2014. Develop a plan and candidates to take the Senate.Along the way we must learn from the Democrats and support our candidates. The Republican leadership squandered two Senate seats that could have been won. Stupid mistakes that will last for six years. Click Here if you Like this Comment

I have been a lurker on this web site since the late 1990s. Ever since, I have started every day by coming to this site and reading the decent,intelligent,insightful, and witty comments. This morning I was in tears, and I have never cried after an election in my life. I cannot tell all of you how much it means to me to have a forum of like-minded people with whom I can share my sorrow and despair. I honestly don't know how to go on from here, but I can tell you one thing: I will never give up. I will never give in to this socialist poison and will go to my death fighting it tooth and nail.

I was in the dumps for about eight hours. But realize two things: (1) this is MY country too. I fought for it, I pay for it, I love it (unlike Mr. Revenge), and I am damn sure not turning it over in despair. (2) this was an election. There will be another one in two years, and another one after that. Things will definitely get worse in the near future. But Margaret Thatcher faced worse. Any damage done by man (or Obama) can be undone. It will be harder, and more expensive. But the only way we lose is to quit the field. "Going Galt" is an escapist fantasy, not a policy.

The Republicans need to master the art of rigging elections as the Dems have.Seriously, Republicans do not split their tickets and vote for a Republican House candidate and a Dem president.The House needs to stand their/our ground and defund any and all of Obama's activities which fall outside the Constitution, including gutting our military.The House should begin a "have no mercy and take no prisoners" investigation of the Benghazi terror attack murders.

Band together and fight back, not with weapons but with new ways to reach out to those who WILL not see because they have been lulled to sleep with siren-song of a nanny government. Breitbart has shown the way. Start by neutering Barack's accomplices in the mainstream media. Bankrupt & destroy them so they no longer have any credibility. Support new media.

The first thing I do every day is visit this site. I seldom post, but browse everything. I feel you Sagman and thank you for all you have done. I am tired too. Hey, they Voted for this stuff on their own free will. I don't get it and am very dissapointed. But maybe this thing has to run its course. The pain of this disease/experiment hasn't really hit yet, but it will. Romney would have never had a chance to do anything with the media we have anyhow. Nothing but pain, suffering and bloodshed will ever lead to a true conservative government, and it may not even happen then. They made one huge mistake in the design and that is term limits. Nobody is going to go down there and suggest term limits, but until that happens it will be more of the same. Our whole economy is unsustainable and we are headed for trouble. probably in my lifetime as I am only 51. Bengazi and f&f are jokes, nothing will ever happen there either. I am taking a break from politics as every single issue I believe in never ever works out. I am tired of losing on each and every issue. I still believe in the right stuff, its just that the majority of the country doesn't. I wish the best for us but have my doubts. Click Here if you Like this Comment

I had the best experience with the Codeboxr team. The otherwise working Instragram module had some placement issues. After sending the support request, I got notice that the issue would be taken care of. This was a Friday afternoon. On Monday morning I found an E-mail with an updated version of the module attached. Fantastic!
I bought this extension and contacted support with questions and suggested modifications to the interface. They responded in record speed and accomodated my needs with a custom module overnight. What amazing customer service!
I paid for this app, thinking it would be an easy fit to my site. It was not, so I sent off a support mail to the developers and they replied immediately! They have gone above and beyond to make this app work with my site, and been gracious always.
I am so impressed with the service and what's more, the extension is great!
I would definitely purchase more from these guys.

from the hostile-environment dept.
First time accepted submitter PvtVoid writes in with the story of Julie Ann Horvath alleging a culture of sexism at GitHub. "The exit of engineer Julie Ann Horvath from programming network GitHub has sparked yet another conversation concerning women in technology and startups. Her claims that she faced a sexist internal culture at GitHub came as a surprise to some, given her former defense of the startup and her internal work at the company to promote women in technology."

Research group warns about dangerous toys
Written by Associated Press
COLUMBUS,Ohio -- As the holiday shopping season really gets into gear, the Ohio Public Interest Research Group is warning parents about some potentially dangerous toys.
The organization says it has found a number of toys on the market that they consider hazardous to children, that either pose a choking threat are too loud for young ears or contain dangerous chemicals.
The toys mentioned in the list include the Ninja Turtle Pencil Case, which the group says contains a high level of dangerous chemicals. The group also suggested avoiding a magnetic toy called "The Sizzler" which they say is a choking threat.
PIRG urged parents to do their homework before purchasing toys. There were 11 toy related deaths last year, 27% of which were choking related deaths.
For more information, and to see their report "Trouble in Toyland 2013", go to the group's website: www.ohiopirg.org

This is TELL ME MORE, from NPR News. I'm Michel Martin. The latest unemployment numbers are out and while things are getting slightly better overall, younger people who want to work are still having a very tough time. We reached out to an economist who says apprenticeships might offer one way to offer more opportunity to the younger trying to get into the world of work. We'll talk more about that in just a few minutes.
I'm Michel Martin and this is TELL ME MORE from NPR News. In a few minutes we'll hear more about singer and reality show star Jenni Rivera. She died in a private plane crash over the weekend. We'll hear about why she was such a big star on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border. That's coming up.
But first, among other things, many of her fans admired about her, Jenni Rivera was a mom of five and on this program we check in every week with a diverse group of parents for their common sense and savvy parenting advice.

Now we'd like to talk about those new unemployment numbers. Last week, we learned that the national unemployment rate has dropped to 7.7 percent. That's the lowest level in four years. But the cheering hasn't started for one group of people, the youngest workers, or would-be workers.
I'm Michel Martin, and this is TELL ME MORE, from NPR News. Later in the program, you might think of apprenticeships as something out of the era of blacksmithing and barrel-making, but our next guest says it's time for this type of employment to make a comeback.
Finally, we want to take a few minutes today to remember Mexican-American singer Jenni Rivera. She died in a plane crash in Mexico on Sunday, flying from a concert to a show taping. She was 43 years old, a mother and a grandmother, and a major star on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border. Here's a bit of a popular song "La Gran Senora," where she tells her man's other woman to back off.
JENNI RIVERA: (Singing in Spanish)
Looking to grab more of "the lucrative New York-to-London market," Delta Air Lines said today that it plans to spend $360 million for a 49 percent stake in Virgin Atlantic.

As weary as many Americans grew of campaign commercials last month, they may be getting even more annoyed this month by endless talk of the fiscal cliff, the massive collection of tax increases and spending cuts set to take effect at year's end.
It's easy to understand the urge to stick fingers in ears and loudly chant "la-la-la-la." The budget problems are indeed complicated, and the negotiations tedious.
But resolving the mess is extremely important: Without a solution, every person who gets a paycheck or has investments will see his or her taxes rise.

Michigan's Legislature is expected to pass legislation Tuesday that would bar contracts requiring employees to pay union dues as a condition of employment. The proposed right-to-work law has infuriated union leaders in a state considered the heart of the union movement.
Republican leaders pushing the bill closely watched the fights over labor rights going on across the Midwest, but it wasn't Ohio or Wisconsin that prompted them into action. Many leaders in the public and private sector looked to their neighbor to the immediate south.

Injured Red Sox DH Ortiz says heels are improving
Boston Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz is shown with Red Sox head athletic trainer Rick Jameyson before their Opening Day baseball game at Yankee Stadium in Bronx, Monday, April 1, 2013. (AP Photo/Kathy Willens) |
NEW YORK (AP) — Boston designated hitter David Ortiz said he is making progress in his recovery from soreness in both heels and he hopes to play in minor league or extended spring training games next week.
Ortiz is on the 15-day disabled list, but he was in New York with the Red Sox on Monday for opening day against the Yankees. He is set to go back to the club's complex in Fort Myers, Fla., to continue his rehabilitation Thursday.
"Feeling good, very good. I'm at the point right now that it's more stable than what it used to be," Ortiz said. "That's good, seems like we're moving forward."
Ortiz has been sidelined nearly all spring with heel inflammation after missing much of the second half of last season with a right Achilles tendon injury.
Boston will be fielding an opening-day lineup without Ortiz at designated hitter for the first time since 2004.
"Opening day's the one time that you want to be good to go, and be ready for the season, definitely. It's just a weird feeling," he said.
Also, manager John Farrell said the team is going through the process of filing the paperwork necessary to get infielder Stephen Drew off the seven-day concussion list and back onto the field.
Farrell said Drew is feeling well enough to play, but he can't until the team gets approval from Major League Baseball.

text: Legendary news anchor Angela Hill has announced her retirement after nearly 40 years of broadcasts on WWL-TV. She will anchor her last newscast next week but remain at Channel 4 to produce documentaries and other special projects, the station has announced. WWLTV.com provides more about the life and career of Angela: After graduating from the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in Journalism in 1972, Angela immersed herself in the field of television journalism and all its challenges. Assuming the roles of Anchor, Reporter, Producer and Assistant News Director at two small television stations in her native Texas, Angela quickly gained the kind of multi-faceted experience that was destined to propel her to the top as one of the industry's most trusted local news personalities. Only months after joining WWL-TV as a consumer reporter, Angela's natural talent soon earned her a coveted chair behind the station's 6 and 10 p.m. anchor desk. Since then, she has remained a cornerstone of New Orleans television broadcasting. In addition to her anchor duties, Angela's career has also encompassed in-depth special reports and prime-time documentaries filed from the world capitals of London, Paris, and Rome as well as from such far-flung places as China, Beirut, and Africa. During her extraordinary career, Angela has garnered numerous local and national industry awards, including a regional Edward R. Murrow award. She has been inducted into the New Orleans Broadcasting Hall of Fame, while the New Orleans Press Club has honored her with its coveted Lifetime Achievement Award. A brass plate in front of the Hilton Hotel lists Angela's name, along with other prominent local civic leaders, as a distinguished member of the city's "Walk of Fame." Other national honors include the prestigious Gabriel Award, the Gracie Award, and a Freedom Foundation Award. For seven successful years, Angela hosted the popular and critically-acclaimed "Angela Show," which ran weekday afternoons on WWL-TV. She created and hosted the daily talk show that highlighted local and national issues while also showcasing local and national talent in entertainment, business and academics. Yet Angela's contributions to her community also extend way beyond the television cameras. Her profound love of animals and people alike has inspired her to give countless hours to diverse organizations ranging from the LASPCA to the United Way. Angela was named the first-ever "Animal Ambassador" by the LSU School of Veterinary Medicine for her tireless work promoting the issues of animal welfare. For years, she has led the diabetes' "Walk for the Cure," and has also chaired dozens of fundraisers. While year after year, she proudly wears her "fashion bargains" on the anchor desk as part of her beloved "Goodwill Week" to support Goodwill Industries. Today, along with co-anchoring both the "At Five" and "At Six" editions of Eyewitness News, Angela enjoys focusing her considerable journalistic skills on both people-oriented features like her "For the Record...with Angela" series as well as her "Animal Patrol" special reports on local animals, animal organizations and animal lovers and supporters.

► Activin/Nodal signaling distinguishes between primitive and definitive hematopoiesis ► T cell development identifies definitive hematopoiesis in human pluripotent cultures ► Primitive hematopoiesis can be distinguished by CD41a and CD235a coexpression ► Demonstration of human T cell development from hiPSCs
The efficient generation of hematopoietic stem cells from human pluripotent stem cells is dependent on the appropriate specification of the definitive hematopoietic program during differentiation. In this study, we used T lymphocyte potential to track the onset of definitive hematopoiesis from human embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells differentiated with specific morphogens in serum- and stromal-free cultures. We show that this program develops from a progenitor population with characteristics of hemogenic endothelium, including the expression of CD34, VE-cadherin, GATA2, LMO2, and RUNX1. Along with T cells, these progenitors display the capacity to generate myeloid and erythroid cells. Manipulation of Activin/Nodal signaling during early stages of differentiation revealed that development of the definitive hematopoietic progenitor population is not dependent on this pathway, distinguishing it from primitive hematopoiesis. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that it is possible to generate T lymphoid progenitors from pluripotent stem cells and that this lineage develops from a population whose emergence marks the onset of human definitive hematopoiesis.

Specialist Rank on Hat
I posted this under I know a little as well so pardon the dual post. I just noticed while watching an old black and white Skynyrd video that on one of Ronnies black hats (couldn't tell if it was the snake banded one or not) that he had the US Army rank of Specialist on the hat.Its subdued rank so its black as well so you have to look for it. My question is was there significance to this? These guys do alot for the military, and I as a soldier appreciate what they do.Ronnie had this on back in the early 70s during Viet Nam when it wasn't super popular to be troop supportive,which says to me the gratitude they have for the military isn't just hype its genuine and generational. Thanks guys for what you do for us in the military !!!

Belgrade has only recently sneaked its way on to the budget airline map - Wizz Air flies there directly from Luton airport. It'll never go down as one of the most beautiful cities in the world but, like other arguably ugly cities (such as Berlin), it more than compensates with a feverish nightlife. If you go for the buzz rather than the sights, Belgrade's riverboat clubs are just the ticket - although there are some more conventional highlights, such as the fortress in Kalemegdan park, to take in, too.
In response to Kyriakossss: The expression of self, of who you are, and what identity and name you wish to go by is not 'stupid and provocative propaganda', it is the basic human right of self determination. I am always confused about this Tito 'creation myth', as if he plucked an ethnicity, culture, and nation from post world war II Balkans. For example The Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization (a revolutionary national liberation movement whose aim was autonomy for the geographic Macedonian region) was founded in 1893, one year after Tito's birth. The 5 basic principles of this organisation were:
- The revolutionary organization should be established within Macedonia and should act there, so that the Greeks and Serbs couldn't label it as a tool of the Bulgarian government.
- Its founders should be locals and living in Macedonia.
- The political motto of the organization should be the autonomy of Macedonia.
- The organization should be secret and independent, without any links with the governments of the liberated neighbourly states, and
- From the Macedonian emigration in Bulgaria and the Bulgarian society, only moral and material help for the struggle of the Macedonian revolutionaries should be required
Again many apologies for using this forum to address these issues. Respect.
I dont agree that Belgrade is an ugly city, far from it. It may have an eclectic mix of old and modern and there are still some signs of the NATO bombing campaign as a reminder. Its a city of real character.
The views from the Kalemegdan fortress are stunning over the confluence of the Danube and Sava rivers.
It is a great place to visit on a short break. The cafe culture & nighlife are brilliant, people are extremely helpful and friendly. Its still reasonably cheap to eat out.
Would thoroughly recommend it.
Hi can vouch for Bled and Belgrade! Fantastic places!
Belgrade is a bit like a cross between New York and Paris, I know that sounds wierd but its very cafe culture but in wide open boulavard roads with cable hung traffic lights. Its open late and quite well lit at night so pretty vibrant. Word of advice though if your a veggie be prepared to eat a fair bit of rubbishy salad as meat is a staple of many of these sorts of country! lol
Bled is awesome in the summer, its full of adventure sports activities and lots of paths for cycling and walking. Its also great for swimming or boating...or if you can't call your skills good enough to be considered boating (like ours weren't) then you can just mess about on the water with some oars ;-) The island is worth a visit and you can row there yourself or take a giant gondola ride and just lie back and trail your hands in the green blue waters. I have seen pics in the winter and as I ski I am considering going back to see it in the flesh with snow and use the ski slopes nearby.
Montenegro is nice too, some decent coast and lovely inlets where the old towns and citadels are just great for relaxing with coffee or beer. We stayed in Kotor old town on one of these inlets and the boats that come in are BIG! Lovely views especially with the old fortress all lit up at night. A nice quiet out of the way spot to just relax, potter about and take in the views for a couple of days and then head off to somewhere brighter and more vibrant
I would also say there are some great places in some of the other countries too. My father lives in Skopje and loves it and Croatia although touristy has some serious coast for yaghting, especially the out of the way island based hidden cove restraunts! Even Kosovo has some lovely hiking in the mountains, although Pristina the capital is not great.
We went to Slovenia this year and visited Lake Bled which is beautiful, also went to Lake Bohinji which is not as well known but just as stunning. We loved the country and the people
are great, friendly and helpful. Would recommend visiting . Also not to be missed are the Postojna caves, truly amazing.
Kwasi - the article is about unsung places in Europe not yet spoiled by the crowds. It's not a political comment on the beliefs of the country. Information is being provided for us to make a choice about whether we may wish to go there and open our eyes to the places not commonly known or on the beaten holiday track. Surely that's what a holiday article is about? There are lots of lovely places in the world where I may not agree with its culture or values, but it's my personal choice therefore to decide whether or not I spend my holiday pound there.
'The Republic Of Macedonia' to give the country its constitutional name, is currently called 'The Former Yugoslavian Republic Of Macedonia' by the UN, and is refused entry to NATO and ironically the EU by Greece. This offensive term is forced upon it by its southern neighbour, who would like to monopolize the term and identity 'Macedonia' for itself. Rather than except that a country and people have the basic human right of self determination, and that a history and culture is not just based upon a despot and self proclaimed god from 2000 years ago, the powers that be in The Hellenic Republic choose to ignore the fluid, complicated history, culture and ethnicity that is Macedonia. For example, you very rarely hear them speak of the Macedonian uprisings of the late 19th Century, the partition of Macedonia in 1913, or the ethnic cleansing of Macedonians from Greece during the 1940s. Maybe one shouldn't be surprised by this view from a society that claims ethnic homogeneity.
Anyway, I can't recommend a visit more! I have been many times and am always amazed at the new and exciting experiences and places I've encountered. Hospitality is second to none, the food and drink are fantastic, the prices are cheap. Oh, and make sure you try the Rakia!

This is my "signature" dish. Always get raves on them. They are a bit time consuming, especially if you decide to make your own Pico de Gallo and Guacamole, but well worth it. I sip on a margarita to make the experience most authentic! * I find that I barely have enough cream sauce, you might consider doubling it for ease. * Here is a recommendation for the order of prepping things... *Start chiles soaking (30 minutes) *Cook chicken (I just boil chicken thighs in chicken stock...they need to cool before you can shred the meat) *Drink Margarita *Butter 13x9x2 baking dish *Preheat oven to 350°F *Slice and sauté mushrooms *Drink Margarita *Make sauce *Make filling *Assemble *Cook and eat (and drink Margarita)!

Apple Releases Mac OS X Lion and New Thunderbolt-equipped MacBook Airs
As expected, Apple today released Mac OS X Lion on the Mac App Store for $29.99. Also debuting are new Sandy Bridge MacBook Airs, which are said to be "up to" twice as fast as the previous generation (on which I'm typing this), and now include high-speed Thunderbolt ports, Bluetooth 4.0, and backlit keyboards. The Mac Mini also received a refresh, dropping its optical drive and adding a Thunderbolt port, and Apple also released a new 27″ Thunderbolt display. For filmmakers, Lion and Thunderbolt are the main stories.
More on OS X Lion in a bit; for now, my main question about the new Airs is whether they're fast enough for mobile video editing. The answer would seem to be yes, as my current MacBook Air runs Final Cut Pro (both X and 7) relatively well, as long as we're talking ProRes footage. But the new Airs also move away from discreet nVidia graphics to an integrated Intel HD Graphics 3000 chipset, which shares memory with the laptop's main RAM. While Apple notes it has a "on-chip engine for video encoding and decoding," which Final Cut Pro X will presumably take advantage of with its OpenCL architecture, no one will know how well these laptops fair until they're in the wild.

New Macbook Air 13″ vs a Macbook Pro 15″ for on the road, run and gun with FCPX? Mac air looking the lighter better option now, what you think Koo?
I think that the 13″ MacBook Air would serve well as a complimentary machine for some quick demo edits on the shoot. Sadly, I fear that it's ability as the GPU just isn't fantastic. Maybe when we get a GPU Dock like the Sony Vaio Z where we could plug in a better GPU into it's Thunderbolt Port… Then I would consider it as a good Video Editing Device. (If the GPU isn't big and bulky…)
I want to convey my passion for your kindness in support of individuals that require help with the study. Your very own commitment to passing the solution along has been rather effective and have really permitted those just like me to realize their targets. The invaluable guide can mean a whole lot a person like me and even further to my office workers. Thanks a lot; from everyone of us.

Student Center >> Considering Nursing >> RN-BSN Question
RN-BSN Question
6 posts back to top |
Posted over 6 years ago In researching different nursing degrees I keep seeing RN-BSN. Is this degree for RN's with just an Associate's in Nursing who are wanting to upgrade to a Bachelor's? And here's another question...I have an Associate's, but not in Nursing. Plus I have several other upper level courses completed - none of which are Nursing related. Is it possible to go for a BSN and get credit for most of my previous college work and not have to do 4 years? I'm signed up to take a CNA course next month to help determine if this is truly the route I want to go. I don't want to do 4 years of college (I'm 40 years old). Would you recommend just doing another Assoc. degree to become an RN? What would you do in this case? |

| Posted over 6 years ago A Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) is considered more skilled than an RN. All RNs must be licensed by the state where they live, but technically only an Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) should be required. I've seen several other postings on NursingLink suggesting that the CNA route is the best way to determine whether nursing is your thing. Check out this posting on Career Strategies. This site should also be helpful. |

| Posted over 6 years ago Jon, This site have been very helpful already! Thank you for your reply - I didn't really understand the dif between ASN and BSN. I'm leaning more towards the ASN route even though it most likely means starting from scratch. I'm ready to start this career. It's been a long time coming (making the decision of what I want to be when I grow up). :) Would you pursue the ASN or the BSN? I mean is the beginning salary much different? Just trying to determine if I'm thinking correctly on this. |

| Posted over 6 years ago Jillcoastie, it is definitely possible to apply your previous college credits to getting BSN. You should check out an ADN (Associates Degree in Nursing - same thing as an ASN) program and compare it to a BSN program. Sometimes the two programs can be completed in the same amount of time if you have previous college credits. The main advantage that a BSN has over an ADN is that it is often required for management level positions. But the starting salary is generally the same for a BSN and an ADN nurse. And Jon- I have to correct you - there should be no difference in skill level between an ADN educated nurse and a BSN educated nurse. The only difference is that with a BSN degree, there are more academic requirements. |

| Posted over 6 years ago Just reinforcing you, Beth. I am currently an ADN nurse working on my BSN as a requirement for the ER Educator position I am in. I actually chose, once upon a time, to pursue the ADN program vs. the multiple BSN programs here in town because of the quality nurses it puts out and the vast difference in tuition. ADN programs historically focus on bedside nursing and pathophysiology and leaves out the management, research...etc of the BSN programs. I can give you quite a list of BSN nurses I have worked circles around these many years. |

| Posted over 6 years ago Jillcoastie writes: "In researching different nursing degrees I keep seeing RN-BSN. Is this degree for RN's with just an Associate's in Nursing who are wanting to upgrade to a Bachelor's?" Answer: It is simply a degree for those who already have an RN who want to "upgrade" to a Bachelors. How you got your RN is of no consequence. Some gained their RN through 2 year colleges, and others via Diploma Programs. "And here's another question…I have an Associate's, but not in Nursing. Plus I have several other upper level courses completed – none of which are Nursing related. Is it possible to go for a BSN and get credit for most of my previous college work and not have to do 4 years?" In short yes, but keep in mind that those that already have a 4-yr. Degree will generally qualify for fast track programs to earn their BSN. These programs are sometimes only 18 months. Remember that various colleges and universities have their own criteria on what credits they will and won't accept. For instance, some colleges will accept Introductory Chemistry, others absolutely will not for the BSN. I strongly recommend contacting and sending your xnscripts to the colleges/universities that you might be interested in attending. If you're interested in attending only a 2-yr. program to get your RN, a non nursing associates degree will help you in some of the basic courses required for the AA degree in nursing (because the core courses are usually identical to most other majors), but not much for the 2 yr. Associates of Science Nursing Degree because other than Psychology, Sociology and a few Humanity courses.. the AS degree focuses on actual nursing and basic bio courses (Anat/Phys, Microbiology, etc.) This again depends on the particular institution. "I'm signed up to take a CNA course next month to help determine if this is truly the route I want to go. I don't want to do 4 years of college (I'm 40 years old). Would you recommend just doing another Assoc. degree to become an RN? What would you do in this case?" I absolutely would not do the CNA course unless it was a requirement for some very particular programs (University of North Dakota for instance requires prior experience which CNA in short, is a qualifier). My question to you is why waste months on a CNA program, when you could be investing that time into getting your actual RN? Even if you wind up not liking the RN program, its a difference between $20+ dollars an hour and getting paid only a few dollars above MINIMUM WAGE in many areas. Put a price on your time and education. Do not waste it figuring out what you want to do. I tell many students this... which is smarter, to major in Engineering and have a job earning $58,000 per year while you "figure out what you want to do", or play musical majors part time, while working a retail job for $10 per hour? :) I think it is important to note why the BSN curriculum varies from the typical 2-year ASSOCIATES OF SCIENCE nursing programs. The difference between these programs conjur up much confusion with those wishing to pursue a degree in nursing, but are not quite familiar with some of the basic differences between getting a Associates or Bachelors of ARTS vs. an Associates or Bachelors of SCIENCE". 1. An ADSN (Associates Degree of Science Nursing) allows one to get the take the NCLEX upon graduation, become an RN and start work. To obtain this degree, you will have to do all the nursing clinicals, etc., take classes in Pharmacy, etc.. You will not usually have to take classes like General Chemistry or College Algebra or higher math, etc.. 2. An AA degree in Nursing is purely designed for those who want to pursue a BSN. You will typically not take any nursing courses, might have to take General Chemistry, College Algebra as a minimum, Statistics and other purely academic courses. Again, this is a major that purely PREPARES a student to pursue a higher degree.
3. The BSN is hugely important if one wants to go futher in nursing. It is *typically* the most basic requirement to even get into the advance schools (Nurse Practitioner, Anesthetist, Mid Wife, etc.)... these are also GENERALLY considered the "good jobs in nursing" ;) Off the top of my head, I'd estimate that these advance degrees would typically boost a nurses pay $15k per annum at a minimum (10th percentile)... and easily $40k per annum more (10th percentile) for Nurse Anesthetist. |

| Posted over 6 years ago I agree with you, Teila, but as far as actual bedside Nursing practice, a BSN program gives you no edge over an ADN graduate. If a nurse's personal goal is to advance out of bedside nursing and into administration or such, then you find the true advantage of a BSN degree. In my practice, I could not even begin to guess which degree is held by the 75 nurses I work with. It makes no difference in actual clinical practice. It is absolutely the individual nurse which makes the difference. I like the quote about education trumping experience, but it can hardly be applied to clinical practice. As nurses, we are as "educated" as we're going to be after graduation and all of the required certification courses, but when can you apply the knowledge and use critical thinking? A good basement membrane of knowledge, which is all most nursing programs can offer, and years of experience are a winning combination.

| Posted over 6 years ago RNdude, correct me if I'm wrong, but are you saying that nurses don't have a chance to apply their knowledge and use critical thinking? Because I use critical thinking every single day in my clinical practice (in the MICU). Taking care of a critically ill patient is a constant series of negotiations (with the docs, pharmacists, transport team, diagnostic services, family members, time constraints, etc.) Without critical thinking and knowledge, I'd be lost. Jillcoastie, this article may be helpful. |
388 posts back to top |
| Posted over 6 years ago I don't think RNdude was saying that nurses don't use critical thinking. He was saying that a BSN doesn't fully prepare you for the real world of nursing - this is very true, and is true of most bachelors degrees. Critical thinking is probably very helpful when it comes to nursing and most professions, but I wouldn't think that critical thinking alone does not adequately prepare you for nursing, or any other profession for that matter. |
628 posts back to top |
| Posted over 6 years ago In that portion of my post I was responding to the obtuse statement "Education virtually ALWAYS trumps experience" which, when applied to clinical nursing practice is just absurd. We all use critical thinking whether it's floor nursing, ICU or ER. My point was that critical thinking does not come from nursing school. Nor does the ability to fully utilize what you learned in school. Being able to fully apply what you have learned, both from school and the job itself, takes time. To further explain my point regarding this quote, let's say a BSN grad passes boards, begins work in the ER, becomes certified in Basic Dysrhythmia, ACLS, Hemodynamics, Tncc, Enpc and Pals. This is as "educated" as this nurse is going to get at this point in their career. Another nurse working beside the new grad is an ADN nurse, has the same certifications and 10 years experience in the ER. Now, tell me that education trumps experience. This is my exact point. Beth, I can certainly maintain an amount of decorum, but you will have to excuse me when I get a bit riled by someone who is speaking about something they truly have not experienced. |

| Posted over 6 years ago I'll add to this fire....I decided to go ASN over BSN. Why? In northwest Florida there are 3 ASN and 1 BSN programs, and a couple more each in nearby Alabama. The BSN programs required more prerequisites and more money up front. I have a Bachelor's Degree already, so my question was what program was going to get me done quicker, into nursing quicker, and cheaper. Unfortunately, the answer was both ASN and BSN. I took my time for prerequisites and even took the chemistry and psych for the BSN and aced them all. So money played a part in the decision: the VA pays me thae same whether I go to a university or to community college. I chose a community college with an accredited program and will pocket some cash. I will still become an RN, and with my Bachelors degree already in hand, can go for my MSN (at U of Florida or South Alabama: ASN with BA will get you into an MSN program). So I think I win either way: I will have the education (ASN) and I have critical thinking and problem solving skills (BA and military). And 10 years experience as a hemodialysis technician when I do become an RN; which will probably only help if I stay as a dialysis nurse, but can't hurt on a resume. |

| Posted over 6 years ago I think the problem is when words like "always" are used, as in "education ALWAYS trumps experience." It's easy to find good and bad examples of both the experienced nurse with an ADN and the inexperienced nurse with a BSN. It really depends on the person. It is true that a BSN will aid you in career advancement, while an ADN typically will not. On the other hand, an ADN prepared nurse who chooses to work nights, weekends, and the occasional OT shift can typically earn a lot more than his Nurse Manager, who may have a Master's degree. As far as clinical hours taught in an ADN vs. BSN - I believe they are equal, but I'm sure it varies from program to program. I am currently researching this and I will share the results. One interesting thing is that in my state, (Maryland) ADN programs have a higher pass rate for the NCLEX than BSN programs do. |

| Posted over 6 years ago Jillcoastie... I'm in a two year ASN program and it's a good choice if you want to be out in the work force sooner. We learn a lot in a small amount of time. It's a challenge, but it's well worth. |

| Posted over 6 years ago Here's an article on the differences between a BSN and an ADN and the advantages/disadvantages of both. |

| Posted over 6 years ago With all the on-line RN to BSN programs out there I don't think there is any question to it. Get the Associates then get you Baccalurate, if so inclined, while in the work force. I agree with Telia that there is no reason to go CNA first. If you find that hands on Nursing isn't for you, there are other job opportunities for RN's that don't exist for CNA'a or LPN's. |

| Posted over 6 years ago In response to dmorse6...what you're telling us is that you feel it would be more prudent to take the time and money to achieve an ADN, which takes more than 2 years, typically, and THEN decide that nursing isn't for you?? Even when you can obtain a CNA in as little as 10 days, begin working in a nursing environment immediately, and find out sooner and cheaper that nursing isn't for you? I'm sorry I just don't see that making any sense. Especially when I just had one of our pct's turn in his notice and pull out of nursing school because he found out it wasn't for him. I'm pretty certain he's happy he found out now before going through the entire nursing program. Now he can spend the time he was going to be in nursing school deciding what he really wants to do. |

| Posted over 6 years ago RNdude brings up an excellent point. Why do some prospective nurses avoid CNA programs altogether? It does seem like it would be the logical first step to see if nursing is really for you? |
40 posts back to top |
| Posted over 6 years ago A few points to make here. I started my nursing career as a CNA and then while working I went to school to become a nurse. I do think that becoming a CNA first makes you see what nursing is like. I have worked with a few good nurses and a few horrible nurses. I can tell you from experience the ones that have been a CNA first are not afraid to get their hands dirty. They also are not the type to go in to a room and see that a urinal needs empty and walk out to tell the Aide. I currently only have my Associates degree but by the end of the year I will have my BSN. I don't see any difference in the nursing skills between these two degrees. I learned critical thinking in my ADN program and have only built on it while working. Going through my BSN has only taught me more about community nursing and research. Yes you need a BSN to move up to management, and to move up the education ladder but other than that it doesn't make you a better nurse. |
