Ohio Official Docked Vacation Time For Stolen Tape 218
Lucas123 writes "The missing tape, stolen from an intern's car, contained data on all 64,467 state employees, 19,388 former employees and 47,245 Ohio taxpayers. The state believes the incident will cost them $3 million. So after four months of deliberation, the Ohio Department of Administrative Services
announced today that they decided to take a week's vacation away from Jerry Miller, their payroll team leader and the guy in charge of the missing data."

It's okay. He's from the government.

I wouldn't be so sure. It took them four months of deliberation to make that determination. From that, I'm guessing they're using some kind of magic-8-ball-fueled-fractal-algorithm to come up with these figures, which means you very well could end up earning a salary in turkish lire, if you're not careful.

Yes, we should. The medical profession would have us believe that they know what they are doing, when in fact they really have no clue. 50% of medical students cannot pass organic chemistry.
Doctors are biologists (NOT SCIENTISTS). Biologists simply name and memorise structures they do not comprehend, there is no real science involved.
The best medical attention is no medical attention. (Aside from common sense hygiene, bandaging, tourniquets and amputations that any dexterous person can perform - anything else is pure guesswork at this point.)
