Parents are busy and it's difficult to get them to show up to a "parent meeting" at the beginning of a new school year. We have important information we want to communicate with them about Young Life. We want to explain club and camp and introduce them to leaders, but the problem is that parents aren't showing up to the meetings.
What if, instead of having a "Parent Meeting," we offered something of even greater value as a gift to parents. If you were a parent of a teenager, which of the three meetings below would you come to?
- Young Life Parent Information Meeting.
- How To Help Your High Schooler Get Into College.
- How To Handle Technology and Social Media- A Seminar to Help Parents Living in a World of Screens.
What if, instead of just having a "YL Parent Mtg," we offered a 2-hour discussion on the topics of "getting into college" or "technology and social media." When we scratch where they're
We could still give out the same info about Young Life and still introduce the leaders, but the focus of the meeting wouldn't be on "our thing," but it would be
How To Help Your High Schooler Get Into College
If you went this route, you could invite an expert or two to come in and share. Connect with the guidance counselor from the high school or an admissions counselor from a local college. Do your research ahead of time. Have college leaders share about their own experience in high school and what motivated them. Offer "college tours" and have some dates set where leaders offer to take kids and tour different colleges in the fall. A big way to motivate kids to study is to actually take them to a college and show them what their future could look like. Make sure it's helpful information that you're providing. Also, listen to parents and find out ways that you can support and encourage them as well as their kids.
How To Handle Technology and Social Media- A Seminar to Help Parents Living in a World of Screens
This is such a tough topic for parents who want to protect their children, but also feel overwhelmed by a world of screens that they often don't understand. If you go this route, below are a few resources I recommend reading/watching to help you plan your parent training time.
Have Smartphones Destroyed a Generation?
Simon Sinek on Millenials in the Workplace
What Have I Created?
The Tech-Wise Family
If you end up going a different route with your parent meetings, let us know how it went! We'd love to also add your suggestions into this post. Email us here.

Many students erroneously assume that they are not eligible for financial aid because they are enrolled in an online program. Fortunately, this is not the case. Students enrolled in accredited, degree-granting online programs are eligible for most forms of federal financial aid. There are also grants, scholarships, fellowships and loan programs designed specifically for teachers who wish to pursue advanced degrees. These programs may be specific to a discipline (science, math, language arts, etc.) or more broad-based. All students interested in receiving financial aid should begin by filling out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This is the form used by government agencies and private scholarship-granting organizations to determine eligibility for their various programs. Teachers should also check with their local school district and their union, if they belong to one, to see if they offer tuition assistance.

Michigan medical marihuana users should be aware of recent changes to the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act. One of the changes went into effect in December of last year, regarding the transportation of medical marihuana. The new law says that medical marihuana must be transported in an enclosed case in the trunk of the car; and if the vehicle does not have a trunk, it must be in an enclosed case that is not readily accessible from the inside of the car.
Other changes took effect on April 1st of this year. The amendments include: doctors must conduct a more thorough medical evaluation of patients before certification, and they must also provide follow-up care to monitor the effectiveness of the patient's use of medical marihuana; the state-issued cards will be good for two years now, instead of just one; and caregivers cannot have committed any felony in the last ten years, or ever have committed an assaultive crime (which includes numerous crimes; including kidnapping, stalking, and assault).
There still remain some unclear aspects of the much-debated medical marihuana system in Michigan. The Michigan Supreme Court ruled in January of this year that so-called medical marihuana dispensaries are not allowed under the 2008 law. There was a bill introduced earlier this year, pending debate, that could legalize the shops though. This could mean more changes to the medical marihuana laws in Michigan.

Question about Sony KV-20S20 20" TV
TV is 12 years old. Just developed horizontal white bands with black diagonal strips across the screen. The bands do not fill the entire screen – probably 40%. This problem appears after a couple of minutes or can be intermittant or just turn to snow. Also, loud static noise. Can this be easily fixed or is it shot?
Posted by vermonter on
Did not address the actual problem. What causes this?
This can't be the only TV that's ever had this problem.
Thanks. That answers my question and confirms my hunch that
it is not worth putting good money after bad!
My experiance is to not put money into a TV that is over ten years
old. TVs stress out their electronic components worse than almost
any other electronic product. After 10 years, there are so many
parts that are ready to fail that your are probably wasting your money
trying to get any more life out of it.
Another option is to wholesale replace the main board by sending it to Module Exchange at 972-298-1212, or PTS Electronics 800-844-7871 ptscorp.com.
Be careful on buying a new one though. Often times, these new technology ones are much worse. Always Google the model number of the set you intend to buy and add the word 'repair' or 'complaint' to see if it is one of the many models that are customer service nightmares being produced by even the most reputable companies today.
Hope ya fix it!
Posted on Feb 08, 2008
What you are seeing are called "hum bars". The scan rate of TV's
is 60hz, same as the 120V line frequency. There are many
capacitors in a TV that filter the power going into the circuitry to
keep this line frequency out. As the capacitors dry out with age
they start to leak and let in the interference and you get these hum
bars. It is difficult if not impossible to track down which one
of them is the problem. One of the main reasons not to fool with
fixing old TVs.

The Court asked Mr. Bickford and James Williams to oversee the allocation of millions of dollars of damages among class members and the division of attorney fees among class counsel.
This lawsuit is about whether lead present in HANO's public housing developments harmed the people who lived, stayed, or visited there. The lawsuit also said that many children who were exposed to lead developed learning, reading, growth, hearing, physical, cognitive, and behavioral problems, as well as permanent brain damage, and some possibly died as a result. The organizations and companies they sued are, HANO, C.J. Brown Property Management, Inc., C.J. Brown Public Housing, Inc., VentanaProperty Management, Inc., and Ventana Public Housing Management, Inc., and their insurance companies.

Wentworth Miller Fans Rejoice! The Hollywood Heartthrob Signs for Prison Breaks 5th Season
3 years ago
Posted by Alex
Wentworth Miller Fans Rejoice – The Hollywood Heartthrob Signs for Prison Breaks 5th Season
When Michael sacrificed himself in the Season 4 finale of Prison Break, fans hearts were broken all over the world. Now six years later after much speculation, the cult show is coming back to our screens and Miller is apparently coming back with it. The star has signed alongside his onscreen brother Dominic Purcell to return but it has left one huge question for fans…How will the writers explain the devastating death of Miller's character at the end of the last season?
Fans offer their own theories on how it will play out
The news of Wentworth's return has caused much speculation as to what actually happened at the end of season 4. The leading theory is that Michael faked his death. To some this is unrealistic as it would mean he didn't actually let his family know he was alive in the years following. It does seem unlikely for the character we've come to know and love. However, it isn't the first time this storyline has been used so it does seem to be the most likely scenario.
The other plotline fans have come up with is that the voltage wasn't actually high enough to kill him. So instead he's been in a coma. This would explain the level of time he's been away, but still seems like a big leap.
The producers of the show have stated when the idea was presented to them it did seem very believable and logical. Whatever happens, the news that Michael and Lincoln are going to be back on our TV screens is extremely good news and well worth tuning in for.
A release date hasn't been given yet, all we know is that it is definitely happening. It will be reportedly returning to our screens in 2016.
We're currently working on a complete revamp of the site ready for 2016. So stay tuned for all of the latest Prison break news and gossip.

President Goodluck Jonathan also stated that he had no interest in joining issues with the former President.
President Goodluck Jonathan has said that former President, Olusegun Obasanjo is still a father to him despite recent utterances made by the latter.
Jonathan also stated that he had no interest in joining issues with the former President.
The President made the declaration during an interview with editors from The Tribune on Thursday, February 19.
"First and foremost, Obasanjo is a father to me. By divine providence and the grace of God, I am the President of Nigeria today. It is not by my strength. But God uses human beings to actualise His own blessings on human beings. And He used so many Nigerians, including former President Obasanjo, to play one role or the other for me," Jonathan said.
"I became the deputy governor of a state, became the governor, the vice president and president. I have no issues with him, and I really don't want to join issues with President Obasanjo. I think it is not necessary. But I will use this opportunity, because you asked, to just plead with my father that he is a leader, a former president of the country. He has led the country more than anybody — eight years of democratic governance and almost four years of military governance. No other person has that kind of record," the President added.
"The stability of this country is critical in terms of the economy of this country. Rating agencies downgrade countries that are going into elections because the feeling is that there would be crisis. When you paint the colour of instability for your own nation, you are doing so much injustice to the country because it affects the economy of the country, not just affecting the country in terms of security and social issues alone. It affects the economy directly. So, I plead with very senior citizens that Nigeria is dear to us; we don't have any other country than Nigeria," he continued.
"So, actions and inactions, or utterances, should be guarded so that we don't expose our country to the international community as if it is a country in danger, a country that is about to collapse. You are frightening investors, especially those who invest hot cash, to pull out their money from the country and that would affect the stock market and it would affect the economy," Jonathan said.
The President also urged Obasanjo to guard his utterances for the good of Nigeria.
"For one reason or the other, Obasanjo may disagree with me as his first political son. You can even disagree with your own biological children, as a human being, not to talk of disagreeing with your political children. So, he can agree or disagree with me, but the utterances have to be managed in a way that it does not affect the economy and security of this country," Jonathan said.
Jonathan said further that the destruction of Obasanjo's Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) membership card had no effect on him (Jonathan).
Obasanjo ordered an associate to rip the card in shreds saying that he was no longer interested in party affiliations.

SOUTH PORTLAND, Maine— The Southern Maine Community College (SMCC) baseball program prepares to defend its Yankee Small College Conference (YSCC) title beginning this fall with a 14-game slate released Thursday, August 10th.
Head Coach Jordan Yanni will return for his second season following an 11-14-1 mark a season ago. The SeaWolves open their fall campaign in Portsmouth, N.H. and square off against Great Bay Community College (GBCC) to begin the Herons' inaugural season on September 8th.
SMCC begins a four-game home stand, first in a double dip with Central Maine Community College (CMCC) on September 13th. The SeaWolves will look to build on a 14-4-1 record they hold over the Mustangs spanning the previous five seasons. SMCC will play host to New Hampshire Technical Institute (NHTI) in an afternoon doubleheader on September 16th. The SeaWolves ride a seven game winning streak against the Lynx at home.
The SeaWolves play YSCC doubleheaders against the same CMCC and NHTI, this time on the road—first in Auburn, Maine on September 20th and then in Concord, N.H. on September 23rd.
SMCC is set to travel to Holyoke Community College on September 24th in hopes to extend its three game winning streak against the non-conference opponent. The SeaWolves will round out September and their regular season when they welcome GBCC for a YSCC doubleheader on the 30th.
SMCC is scheduled to host the YSCC Fall Invitational, a one-day postseason tournament on October 7th. Seeding will be determined upon the results of the conference regular season.

It's not normal for an exact release date to still be unknown this close to launch, is it? I haven't heard of this happening before. Or has an exact date been revealed and I just missed it? A quick Google search came up nothing.

An Eddie Murphy movie needs to do only one thing: provide the comedian with a collection of authority figures--preferably white, overweight and gun- toting--that he can mouth off to. In the past, Murphy has made do with gallery owners, hotel clerks and a lot of policemen in various guises. In ``The Golden Child,`` the ante has been raised absurdly to include--or so it seems--Satan himself.
``The Golden Child,`` directed by comedy specialist Michael Ritchie
(``Smile,`` ``The Bad News Bears``), is a weirdly out-of-scale movie that constantly juxtaposes the trivial and the cosmic, less to comic effect than to a mounting sense of muddle and uncertainty.

A ship from China rests at Pireaus port, in Greece, last month. China COSCO Shipping Corp became the major shareholder and operator of the port in August. The project is seen as an example of strategic cooperation between the two countries. It is described in Belt and Road Initiative blueprints.
One month and counting.
More than 20 heads of state and government, as well as 1,200 delegates from countries around the world will descend on Beijing for the Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation, which will be held on May 14 and 15.
It's a landmark event for the Chinese initiative, launched by President Xi Jinping in 2013.
Since then, the initiative-which consists of the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road-has resulted in cooperative agreements with China from more than 40 countries and international organizations, and Chinese companies have invested some billion in mainly infrastructure projects.
One of the aims of the forum is to move the concept from being a China-led initiative involving bilateral agreements to a multilateral concept that will help foster greater global connectivity.
Xi made his ambitions for the Belt and Road Initiative clear at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, in January, when he defended globalization and called for countries to work together to tackle the world's many uncertainties.
"We should join hands and rise to the challenge," he said. "History is created by the brave. Let us boost confidence, take action and march arm-in-arm toward a bright future."
The main tangible elements of the initiative so far are the Silk Road Fund, for which the Chinese government pledged billion in 2014 for investment in countries along the routes, and also the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, whose founding members include many Western countries, including the UK, France and Germany, along with leading Asian countries such as India, Pakistan and Vietnam.
Hugh White, a professor of strategic studies at Australian National University who was an adviser to former Australian prime minister Bob Hawke, believes the forum will be about making clear that the initiative is for everyone, not just China.
"For it to work, it has got to be something that has wider ownership and acceptance than just being a Beijing initiative," he said.
"It has the potential to be something very significant. The countries participating will be involved in creating a vision and framework for globalization for the next few decades. So it is of immense significance."
Joint development
Tom Miller, senior Asia analyst at Gavekal Research and the author of a new book, China's Asian Dream: Empire Building Along the New Silk Road, agrees the aim will be to make clear that the initiative is very much about joint development.
"The mistake you can make about the Belt and Road Initiative is to think it is purely a Chinese project," he said. "It can't be just that, because whatever China is doing, it is doing with enterprises in other countries. So it has to be about joint development."
Edward Tse, founder and CEO of management consultancy Gao Feng Advisory, believes the Belt and Road is still at the formative stage, and the forum will include a progress review and provide a forward vision.
"It is critical for the whole initiative. These leaders are coming together to discuss where to go next. Belt and Road started off as a concept, but the concept changed very quickly into some very tangible ideas like the AIIB and the Silk Road Fund and some very real infrastructure projects," he said.
"We don't have 100 percent clarity as to what it is or will evolve into; on the other hand, the participants have a lot of aligned interests and will want to be part of it."
Some critics of the initiative have seen it as China trying to exert greater geopolitical influence.
Shen Dingli, professor of international relations and executive dean of the Institute of International Studies at Fudan University, rejects this notion.
"We have no geopolitical agenda. It is not a strategy. At first it was bilateral, but it can also be China working with two or more countries, and it can also include projects in which China is not involved at all," he said.
"If they want to be involved, Japan can also bid for projects and be part of it. It is a global interconnectivity initiative. China does not have to be involved at all, but it is the country that initiated it, that's all."

Inside 'Techno City': Melbourne's clubbing history with Dave Pham
Back in the 90s, Melbourne was acclaimed by many titans of the scene – from Derrick May to Luke Slater – as being the world's 'Techno City', such was the special energy and passion for techno in Australia's southern capital.
As part of our on-going series looking into the back-story of the clubbing scenes in Australia's major cities (check out our chat about the birth of Sydney clubbing with Stephen Allkins and features on the early Brisbane rave scene and the evolution of Adelaide's clubbing underground), inthemix spoke with Melbourne techno veteran Dave Pham, who came up during the city's '90s heyday, and still holds the torch aloft with a slate of regular gigs like the upcoming Likes of You Reunion at Brown Alley, When The Smoke Clears at Loop and Drumatix at My Aeon. Listen in as Dave tells us about the DJs that forged Melbourne's scene and the seminal parties they threw.
So you came up in the 1990s techno scene in Melbourne. When did you first start going out?
Around [age] 17 was when I started to venture out, mainly to clubs at that time – I didn't really start to experience the raves until the year after… I'm from a pretty strict Asian family. I had to do some fancy talking! To be staying out past midnight and stuff like that, I still don't know how I managed that to this day, but I did. At the time it was to experience a couple of clubs that were talked about on a radio show that I was listening to, and seeing where I could actually hear this type of music.
What kind of music?
It was a mix between a lot of techno, acid house, maybe some tech-trance, piano house, some big beat as well. But the stuff that I recollect listening to and what really drew me in was the techno, definitely. Very fast-paced at that time as well…very upbeat, very driving, very up-tempo, loads of energy. And I was just really excited by all the sounds that were hitting me in the face.
What were the names of the clubs?
OK, so there was Pure – that was at the back of the Palace. There was Sector 3 as well, that was in Flinders Lane in the city…. Unfortunately couldn't stay there the whole night as much as I would have liked to, but I would have had hell to answer for. That was it for me for the first year, not too much, just a little taste. But the following year as I was turning 18, that's when I was able to go out to all the licensed venues properly, and that's when I started going out to big events… That's where it started for me, around '94.
And that's when it really took hold for you?
Definitely. I was just a kid in a candy store. I was amazed, wide-eyed, bushy-tailed – I didn't know what was going on, except that I was truly excited by it, and I hadn't felt that excitement for a long time. A little bit of background on me: I grew up playing tennis, and lived and breathed the tennis world since I was six years old. So by the time I was 17, I sort of was a little bit burnt out by it. Almost made pro, but couldn't quite jump the fence for that next league; and once that dissipated, music and that culture really almost gave me another birth, so to speak.
It made me see that there was something else apart from tennis, and all of a sudden my love for the music, the sounds, and just the environment, what you felt when you were there, what you could share with a big group of people you didn't know…it had a massive appeal, and a massive influence on the rest of my life in the end, too.
Who were the DJs?
For me, probably the guy that really hooked me in was William Keelan, AKA Will E Tell. He was a guy that was playing at all the early clubs that I was going to… It was him that probably had the most influence, and Richie as well – Richie Rich. Just going to all these parties, I couldn't help but be in awe of what that guy built…his equal love of Detroit techno and German trance was something that I really related to as well. I really liked both sides of the fence there, and I liked the fact that he pushed both sides and everything in between too.
They were definitely amongst my favourite DJs, amongst a few others: Jeff Tyler, Steve Robbins. These guys also had a huge influence on me. But the two guys that I followed pretty religiously were Will E and Richie – them supporting each other at all the events, and obviously all the Hardware shows and all the subsequent shows that came from that – Will E was resident there, so it was easy to follow those two at the same venues around Melbourne for years.

907P - Confirmation of the prognostic value of modeled PSA clearance after radical prostatectomy: results of the validation PSAMODEL study
|29 September 2012

Early predictors of relapse after radical prostatectomy are needed. We previously showed that mathematical modeling of PSA kinetics during the first 50 days after surgery provides a parameter, PSA clearance (CLPSA), which may be an independent early predictor of relapse [1](You et al; Prostate 2009;69:1325). Prospective validation of these outcomes was warranted.Methods
PSAMODEL was a prospective validation study including prostate cancer patients treated with radical prostatectomy. Modeled individual CLPSA was estimated with 4 values of PSA centrally measured during the first 50 post-operative days, using the bi-compartment model previously reported [1] with NONMEM program. The prognostic value of modeled CLPSA regarding 3-year biochemical relapse-free survival (3 y-bRFS) was assessed using survival univariate and multivariate analyses.Results
Total 119 patients were included in PSAMODEL study. Among them, 13 patients (11%) experienced a relapse after median 6.5 months. Despite high inter-individual variability, individual PSA decline profiles were well fitted by the model. CLPSA, categorized by the 0.048 cut-off previously reported [1], was a significant prognostic factor of 3 y-bRFS using log-rank test (3 y-bRFS: 97% vs 66%, p = 0.009). Moreover it had independent significant prognostic value when adjusted on D'Amico score items using multivariate Cox model (p < 0.05).Conclusion
We confirm modeled CLPSA estimated with 4 PSA values in the first 50 days after radical prostactectomy is a prognostic factor of relapse, independently on d'Amico score. The role of post-operative modeled CLPSA in adjuvant treatment decision will be assessed. [1] You et al; Prostate 2009;69:1325Disclosure

guarantees. >> you have laid out a perfectly conceivable scenario. i couldn't have done that. i didn't see that deal. now i do. >> okay. all right. >> jothank you for joining us. >> thank you, lawrence. >> chris hayes is up next. good evening from new york. i'm chris hayes. president obama hit the road today traveling to the laboratory of obama care. the state of massachusetts, to defend his signature law today. >> i'm confident the market places will work. because massachusetts has shown that the model works. yes, this is hard. because the health care system is a big system. and it's comb pm complicated. if it was hard doing it just in one state. it is harder to do it in all 50 states when governors of a bunch of states and half of the
11:01 pm
congress aren't trying to help. yeah. it's hard. but it is worth it. >> the president was in boston trying to reboot the conversation around the new health law. house republicans were back in washington, hard at work. investigating the laws troubled debut. >> republican colleagues trying to scare everybody. >> will the gentleman yield? >> i will not yield to the monkey court. >> the mun keonkey court was in session with health and human services secretary kathleen sebelius fielding questions, of congressmen. did you know for example that kathleen sebelius used to be governor of kansas. >> madam sec scaretary you are kansas. >> you were governor in kansas. >> which is also the site of an iconic american film. >> there is a famous movie called the wizard of oz. >> i know we are not in kansas.
11:02 pm
>> people went to see the wizard because of the wonderful things he did. >> some might say we are actually in the wizard of ozland. >> that land you speak of, sir is called oz. but sebelius wasn't born in kansas which means she could not have run into the 90-year-old texas congressman ralph hall on a tricycle in meade, kansas. >> were you born in meade, kansas. >> no, in cincinnati, ohio. >> i was in third grade thought i saw you on a tricycle. >> who was the kathleen sebelius look alike in depression area kansas. we may never know. republicans moved on to the relative morality of an ad put out by a colorado nonprofit. >> do you agree with this advertising for obama care. >> i can't see it. >> a college student doing a keg stand. >> if the colorado exchange. >> do you approve of the
11:03 pm
advertising? >> i don't see it. >> pretty big picture of a keg. >> she took a pro-bro, and using the toby keith song -- >> some people like to drink out of a red solo cup. >> stepping in to carry the pro bro torch. >> correct me if i am wrong do men not have to buy maternity coverage? >> congressman billy long had other reason for boycotting the website? >> i could not bring myself to do that from what i have heard from john macafee. >> john macafee, the security mogul turned fugitive, certifiable creep. >> people ask me did you really sleep with ten 17-year-old girls you are a 67-year-old man. yes, i did. the rollout of the aca has been rocky to say the least. don't worry, congress is on it.
11:04 pm
joining me is congressman, leonard lance, republican from new jersey. and congresswoman donna christianson, democart, the u.s. virgin island & a doctor herself. congressman, lance, i am confused at this point of the sort of republican objection from a approximately see standpoint is the idea that health insurance scum pans should not be able to cancel policies in the individual market? >> that is correct. and, that is the substance. first we want to make sure that the procedure works. which is the website. i want to work with the administration to make sure the website is up and running fully as quickly as possible, chris. >> well that's great. i think that is, everyone, who cares about it, feels that way. just to make sure i am understanding you. the republican, your position, republican party position is that private health insurance scum pa companies should not be canceling policies in the individual market. something they are not allowed
11:05 pm
to do? >> i think that those who are satisfied with their health care policies should be able to keep their health care approximately sees. that's what the president said repeatedly. unfortunately, in many circumstances. that will not be the case. >> you are aware that just for instance, one house study sthoed that in five years, in the mid 2000s, that 20,000 policies were canceled by insurance companies. that is what the president said repeatedly, and unfortunately that is not the case in many circumstances. and i think that should be the case. >> congresswoman christianson, did you feel like you got a better sense, got your hands around what was going on with the health exchanges in today's hearings? >> well, i've always known that
11:06 pm
the health exchanges have been worked on from day one, when the problems first surfaced. that improvements are being made. we see that more people are being able to apply. and the paper, those who are doing it by paper, those paper applications are being entered at higher numbers now. so i think yes, i am very, very comfortable that the changes that need to be made are being made. and that it will be ready, hopefully by the end of november. but -- >> and what is your reaction to the criticisms from your colleagues in the republican party about the fact that some people are seeing their current plans in the individual market cancelled? >> well, you know, there are plans that -- if they were in place at the time that the law was passed, they can be grandfathered. but some insurance -- as a
11:07 pm
physician, i saw patients with insurance policies that when they got sick, they were of no use. and what we're doing -- what is happening with the affordable care act, is we're raising the level of insurance. we're improving the services that are provided. we're making insurance more secure. and if there are any -- policies that don't meet the high standards, they may not be able to continue to see patients, write policies for patients. but most of them are going to be grandfathered. only about 5% are not meeting that standard, and are dropping patients. but as you said, chris, insurance companies drop their insured all the time for a variety of reasons. and i guess in some cases, they felt that this was a good excuse, whether it was warranted or not. >> congressman leonard lance and congresswoman donna christianson, i thank you both
11:08 pm
for your time. joining me now, of the department and ceo, a firm for better technology and building signs for better government. clay, i wanted to have you on. you have been tweeted about watching these hearings. they're all out of healthcare.gov, you worked on trying to do big projects. what was your takeaway from the hearing today? >> my takeaway is that we have a congress that is dangerously illiterate when it comes to technology issues. i mean, looking at this thing as a programmer and technologist, it was rather like watching people who can't read or write trying to be a book critic. i had no fundamental on what was even good or bad, it was baffling. >> what did you see that emerged -- seems to me, republicans have
11:09 pm
moved past criticisms of that. yet, that seems to be the implementation order that this law needs to get over. >> it is interesting for sort of fiscal conservatives to move on, and worry about this issue, whether or not people can keep their health insurance. you know, the system that we use called the federal procurement process, in order to buy and build healthcare.gov is broken. and that is responsible for $500 billion a year of spend by the federal government. >> wait, i'm sorry -- $500 billion a year? >> yes, a half a trillion dollars a year. ts and bs is what we're dealing with. >> goes through the federal procurement system, the system that got the various contractors that built out this website. >> right, you think it is fundamentally broken, when you look at a website like healthcare.gov, the cost, $200 million. this idea that that is
11:10 pm
acceptable is clearly false. and so i think you have to take a step back and look at the thing that created it. you have to look at the idea that maybe we're not selecting the best vendors or the best people are not working on this. look, when you build a technology project, you need three things. you need money, you need time, and you need talent. we had plenty of money and we had plenty of time. so -- >> that is an interesting critique. do you think that there is any way to reform that process so that in the short term needed to get implementation up and running -- is this a bigger thing that the big tech companies and government will have to do down the line? >> look, the standings group came out last week and said that 94% of federal i.t. projects up above $10 million fail. the federal i.t. project -- >> wait a second, wait a second, 94% of federal i.t. above $10 million fail? >> right, and the federal i.t. budget is $80 billion a year.
11:11 pm
so i don't know why the republicans are not up in arms about trying to fix the federal procurement process. because what they could be doing is really working hard on that, being of service to the idea of fiscal conservatism. and opening the door to thousands if not millions of small businesses to compete on projects like healthcare.gov. and they would probably do a better job at it. >> and yet, we've seen them kind of move past the website. i mean today, the thing that was notable about the hearing, i thought there was going to be a lot on the website, here they have kathleen sebelius, who was notably responsible for this, and it didn't get a lot of play. >> and it was interesting last week at the conference, marsha blackburn was asking about error logs and that sort of thing. this time she was talking about red cups and crystal straws. as a person who wants to see the federal procurement system changed, myself, i was sort of sad to see the left actual move
11:12 pm
on from the actual website. >> well, the monkey court attention span is short. clay johnson, thank you so much. >> coming up. >> i get a letter from someone in my district, adrian, she says she lost her coverage. she is going on the exchange. she doesn't qualify for a subsidy. she feels -- she feels betrayed by her government. now, she has to sit there asking herself, is this fair? >> meet the newest republican line of attack on obama care. we'll tell you the whole story ahead.

the marketplace. and then many will get new health to pay for these plans and make them actually cheaper. if you leave that stuff out, you're being grossly misleading, to say the least. >> the president is respond to >> the president responding to what has become the leading line on republican's attack to obama care in the last week. which is no longer a glitzy website, it is now policy cancellations. republicans, you see are worried about cancelling the plans and obama forces them to sign up for the plan. but it is not clear that is actually what is happening. >> the provider recently sent her this notice reading because of the requirements of new laws. we can no longer offer your current policy. >> all i want is what i currently have. i want to keep my doctors and i would like to have lower premiums. >> the insurance company is offering her a new plan that would cost $484 a month versus
11:18 pm
her current $293 premium. a 65% increase. >> so 65% increase, that looks bad, that was a report from nbc nightly news. but the contributing editor saw the report and wanted to know what her other options might be. he did a little digging and discovered that by going on the california exchange, he got quote, nine different choices for a plan. the average cost was $258 or $35 less than what she is paying for her bare bones plan. he found she could get a silver plan, only $23 more than what she is paying now. one of our producers also hopped on the california exchange website and came up with similar results. that is assuming the woman was 45 years old and had an income high enough she didn't qualify for subsidies. now, the other context here is that insurance companies don't seem to be giving people the full menu of options in the letters they're sending to announce the policy cancellations.
11:19 pm
in fact, those letters seem like they're pushing people to join a higher cost plan. it is like saying your toyota is recalled, we can supply you with an avalon for higher the cost. what they don't seem to be showing is they are providing a plan that is about the same as what they're paying right now. now senior analyst of republican integrity. wendell, i want to start with the baseline, which is what we had had before the affordable care act. which i think is what is getting lost. how common was it for insurance companies to cancel policies in the individual market in a given year? >> well, it is very, very common. in fact, it is one reason i left the industry just because of that practice. in fact, my own son was a victim of that. in 2009, before the affordable
11:20 pm
care act was passed, he got a letter from his blue cross plan in pennsylvania telling him that his plan was being cancelled. and his options were to go into a plan that was somewhat comparable, but his premiums would increase 65% or he could shift into a very high deductible plan, shifting to one that had a $5,000 deductible plan, with an increase. that is what he was able to do. this has been going on for many years and just is now coming to light. reporter's really have not focused on this in years past, so insurance companies have been able to get away with it. >> what is driving this? one is, plan that is are being cancelled have to be replaced with a plan that is compliant with the affordable care act, but i have now seen a bunch of these letters through these stories which have become a kind of genre, the insurance companies saying you can enroll
11:21 pm
in this plan b, and it is a lot more expensive. but it is also not clear this is the only plan they're offering. >> right, it is exactly right. it is a classic example of what i used to do for a living. that is, obscure the facts and use selective disclosure of facts to present something and make people think that they will not be able to get something that is better, and probably for less money on the exchange. they don't want you to know that. >> what kind of -- just for people to kind of understand the overall context of the health insurance market, what sliver of the population are we talking about when we talk about people who are in the individual market right now that have plans that are not grandfathered in, that are being cancelled? can you give us a picture -- there are over 3 million americans, what are we looking at here? >> less than 4%, 14 to 15 in the individual market, it is small for two reasons. one, because insurance companies
11:22 pm
have been able to engage in practices of black balling people because of pre-existing conditions. people can't buy policies at any price, in many cases on the individual market because of being sick in the past. and also because they're able to cancel policies when they want to. and -- or price them so high that people can't afford them. and so we're talking about a very small percentage of the population. here is the other thing, too, though. people in the current market probably can get coverage that is better than what they have now. because a lot of these people are enrolled in junk policies that companies that i used to work for have sold in the past. in fact, the majority of them will qualify for tax credits or subsidies to bring the cost down. so they will be paying less for better coverage. >> quickly, did the administration overpromise when they said repeatedly if you like your plan you can keep it?
11:23 pm
>> well, it was unfortunate language. because the president nor congress in this law can really control the insurance companies that well, that effectively. they control the health care system in many ways. they're able to get away with this, and they are, as we're seeing. >> right, it was a promise that they're seeing they could not themselves keep. wendell potter, thank you very much. all right, congressman barney frank's name was brought up, cited as the authority, the man supporting the bill. but that is not exactly the case. he will be here to react coming up next. it's a growing trend in business: do more with less with less energy. hp is helping ups do just that. soon, the world's most intelligent servers, designed by hp, will give ups over twice the performance, using forty percent less energy. multiply that across over a thousand locations, and they'll provide the same benefit to the environment as over 60,000 trees. that's a trend we can all get behind.

a big day for congress today, back in the swing of things, back to work. house of representatives holding one of its first floor votes since the government shutdown ended two weeks ago. and what did they vote on? they voted to gut a major part of dodd frank reform. >> i think we're a day in front of halloween, and here we are handing out treats to the likes of j.p. morgan chase city, and bank of america. you know, it is fitting on this day that we should be doing the people's business. and yet, here we are, handing out treats and goodies to huge banks. >> the bill, which would allow the mega banks greater leeway that caused the big crash, to prevail. the senator, with all but three republicans, in a touching display of moxy. but get this, the improvement
11:28 pm
act was pretty much written by city bank along with its big bank co-horts, here is what was written, and here is the final bill, as voted out of committee six months ago and passed today at the full house. two crucial paragraphs were copied nearly word for word. in justifying his support of the bill, the current chairman of the house financial services committee cited the former chair of the committee, barney frank. >> and those who are loathe to ever amend dodd frank, no less of an authority, than barney frank himself, former chairman of the committee, say it addressing the valid criticisms of section 16 without weakening the important safeguards or provisions on bank proprietary trading.
11:29 pm
>> joining me, former chair, and cited many times today in the house debate as someone who favored this bill. barney frank, did you favor this bill? >> no, i never did. and i am touched by this invocation. it reminds me what i have always felt about a lot of republicans. they have a great fondness for dead democrats. you know, harry truman, john kennedy. they always like them -- i guess they have developed a new fondness now, for nonmembers of the house. because that is certainly not a deference any of them paid to my judgment when i was there. the fact is, i did say in 2009,
11:30 pm
2010, when the bill came out in the senate, that i didn't think it was necessity, we could do it other ways. what i did say, one of the critical elements in the bill, it is a great mistake to start picking it apart. one of the things that the tea party fundamentally missed in the effort to relitigate the health care bill, there is an important issue in the legislation, when you passed something, you had your fight and won or lost, you don't immediately undo it. they say oh, it needs predictability, well, they shouldn't change things, things have evolved. it became part of the expectations. so no, i never did say that it wasn't one of the critical elements. at the same time, i consistently said i didn't think it should be
11:31 pm
repealed on the principle that it is too early to start undoing this. there is another factor, the restriction on the derivatives, giving them to the banks, well, if we have in place a very strong rule that keeps banks from doing this, that may after some years of experience lead you to a different conclusion. but we're not there yet. so this is frankly a fairly hypocritical invocation of me, the imputation of me, of great wisdom, which i never noticed when i was there. no, it was out of context, i never voted for the bill, i was against the bill. and i called maxine waters, repudiating that. >> and in case america forget, j.p. morgan reminded all of us of the importance in setting limits on bank activities. in 2012, four years after the

crisis, j.p. morgan chase, london well caused the bank to lose more than $6 billion in a few months. >> and here is one of the things about dodd frank. it was crafted in such a way so that a fair amount of the granular rule making was left to regulators. and my question is, how do you come back to essentially micro-manage the stuff that was intentionally left in the bill for regulators to make decisions on. >> first, let me defend that because you're right. first of all, things evolve. things change. we didn't want to just prevent the bad practices of the past. we wanted to empower regulators to deal with new evolving practices in the future. secondly, the more specific you make a provision, the more it can be evaded. you just change a few pieces of it.

here is the real problem, i am happy about that. but this is what most bothers me and this is why i would never be for this kind of legislation right now. once again, if you have the rule, an adequate set of regulations, i'm willing to author this again, here is the problem, biggest grant to the bill, the trading commission, which has a responsibility for regulating the financial derivatives, they were set up to do agricultural things. now they got into this very complicated situation, the serious attack the republicans have been unfortunately successfully making so far, is they refuse to fund, they wouldn't fund the futures commodities trading commission. so that is the problem, they choked off the regulator to keep them from doing this. that, while taken together, i would never support a bill like this. >> really important point, congressman, thank you so much. we'll be right back with click

that's why, at barclays, our ambition is to always realize yours. this friday, 47 million poor people are going to have their benefits cut. you probably haven't heard about it, but food agencies that are struggling to feed the growing ranks of america's hungry are in full-out panic mode. it is called the hunger cliff, and as you're about to see in our exclusive report we are about to go over it. >> the sun has not come up yet. outside the river fun food pantry in queens, new york. but many of the hundreds who line up here every saturday have already been here for hours, bundled up against the cold. they come before sunrise for free food, vegetables, cereal, sometimes meat to feed their kids.
11:44 pm
for many on food stamps, it is not enough. >> the line is so long. i try to come at 10. the line is all the way to the corner. and i spent four hours on the line. >> last year, 47 million people, a full 15% of the population, depended on food stamp assistance. and their lives are about to get harder. when provisions for the 2009 stimulus package expire tomorrow night, $5 billion in cuts to the food stamp program will take effect. that means a lot to the people who need food the most. average food stamp recipient gets about $133 in benefits per month, or less than a $1.50 per meal. for a family of four, the cuts coming down the line work out to fewer meals each month. >> there will actually be a cutback, i reached the point i
11:45 pm
didn't know what to do. i don't know, maybe i may have to go somewhere else to see if i could get more food. or -- i really don't know. but it would really hit me hard. >> the cuts to food stamps also called snap benefits, are the first big hit in what activists have taken to calling the hunger cliff. the second hit may come soon. in washington, a committee met today, starting to reconcile the house and senate version of the farm bill, which has long been the vehicle for food stamp legislation. the senate version of the bill cuts more than $4 billion to food stamps over a decade. the house wants to cut a whopping 39 billion people to the program. while president obama promise to do veto the cuts to the program, it is likely the cuts are coming. some republicans tried to thin these cuts, as humane, the
11:46 pm
representative from florida told "the washington post" that being dependent on food stamps makes you more vulnerable. paul ryan suggested that cutting food stamps is benefitting the poor. >> we don't want to make that a hammock for people to become dependent on it. >> others seem to want to punish them. that was steven fincher, a republican from tennessee, who himself has taken nearly $3 and a half million from taxpayers to subsidize the farm bill, the same program that helps the recipients of food stamps, more than four out of ten live in a household where someone works. many of those without a job desperately want one. elizabeth ferrera is a single mother with a master's degree. >> i need food stamps in order

11:48 pm
>> their medicine is 5 to ten per prescription. you put that altogether, what is left. so if you can get food, some of it is just a dire need to meet the essentials. but some of it is actually trying to put together a picture that they can survive. i know a lot of people think that people come here for food, a lot of times they hear the word moocher. i have to say it is offensive to me. i want to challenge anybody out there, come here at 3:00 in the morning, stand in this line and wait for food. >> if house republicans have their way, that line will only get longer. >> every day you come to get money, if you have $307, you come, you spend 300 this week, you can't go over. once you go over, then before the month is up, it is three or four days sometimes you don't have enough food to eat. so it is very hard. if they cut it, you know, a lot of people will suffer. >> what about all the years i paid taxes?

committee co-chair house hunger caucus. joe i want to start with you, $5 billion in cuts happen on friday. that money goes away. now, it is an $80 billion a year program more or less. that is a little more than 5%, but how big a deal is this, really? >> this is the biggest of deals. you know, just in new york city alone these cuts will wipe out 76 million meals from people who need it the most. already, we know that a family -- they have their benefits. their food stamps. it will last until about the third week without the cuts. you know, before the week that they decided to do this, it is for thanksgiving, for hanukkah. it makes absolutely no sense, especially since we know that nothing has happened differently with our economy. >> can private charities kick in? i give money to food banks, people give money to food banks. and you should.
11:54 pm
but no one should be fooled into thinking this can solve the problem. every food bank, soup kitchen, food pantry in america distributes about $5,000 worth of food. so this goes into effect as if all of these charities didn't exist for a year. >> the cuts that happen on friday, automatically that no one is talking about, they're not like a political issue. those are equal to the sum total of privately charity funded food assistance in the entire nation. >> as media matters pointed out, this is the first network show to even discuss 48 million people losing food. and the house cuts on top of this would be eight times what charities distribute in a year. >> then congressman, i want to go to you on that. the republicans proposed a $39 billion cuts to programs a year. what is interesting, it seems like food stamps there was something there was a political consensus around, until recently. i wanted to show you an image
11:55 pm
from fox news who has been doing a lot of reporting. 96% of them have a refrigerator. the implication being they are not really poor, they don't really need this. have you seen the political consensus around this very basic necessity, erode? >> yes, there used to be any hunger, the consensus is that we should be committed to it. unfortunately, it disappears. we have seen republicans belittle poor people, and diminish their struggle, and basically use them as pawns in their struggle. any time they try to find
11:56 pm
savings, it comes from programs like snap and programs that try to help poor people. it is really sad. if government stands for anything, we ought to be there for the people who are most vulnerable. >> is there going to be any way to avoid further cuts when you are considering reconciling a senate bill that has $4 billion in cuts over ten years and a house bill that has $39 billion in cuts over ten years? >> well, i'm on the conference committee of the farm bill. i said today, i'm willing to be flexible and reasonable. but i'm not going to support a farm bill that makes more people hungry in america. we ought to at least agree on that. and i don't believe that we should have anymore cuts in snap. we should be talking about how to end hunger, not just talking about trying to protect the program. we ought to have the white house leadership and the conference to bring people together and actually have a road map to end hunger. that is where our discussion should be focused. not on these cutbacks to snap. but we're going to fight hard to
11:57 pm
make sure there is no further damage to snap. but it is an uphill battle, given the makeup of the house of representatives. >> one of the things that has attracted kind of the political attention by conservative and fox news and republicans is that there has been massive growth in the food stamp program. that is not a right wing lie. that is more expensive. $80 billion is a lot of money, we shouldn't mince words about the size of the program. why has the size of the program expanded so much? >> the size of the program reflects the size of the problem. it is not growing off on its own. it reflects there is a huge crisis, the problem is we're treating the issue as the people, rather than the issue of why is hunger this bad in this country? everybody should be upset about this, not upset at the people fighting through it. >> why is it so bad in this country? >> living wages, jobs, people complaining about food stamps and snap having to fill in the gap are the very same people that wrecked the economy.
11:58 pm
they're not really anti-government, they're anti-government for other people. the congressman admitted he received benefits earlier in life. so my organization sent him a letter with a mirror in it, and said if you want to see what a food stamp recipient looks like, check this out. >> they said look, the majority of people on food stamps are senior citizens and children. of the able-bodied you know, people that can actually work, a majority of those people work. many of them work full-time and they still earn so little that they qualify for this benefit. so we have a lousy economy, when the economy gets better, fewer people will be on food stamps. >> but congressman, to push you on that, we are now four years into the recovery. and when we're going into the reporting of this and looking into the numbers, 15% of americans are poor. 47 million people, i look at that and say america, this is not working. what we are doing right now, our system, the system we're running is failing.
11:59 pm
47 million people in poverty, failing in this country, is a failing grace. the american capital is not producing at this moment. broad gains for people. it is not. >> that is why we need a broader discussion, a white house conference on food and nutrition to talk about how you end this problem. not just how you put band aids on it. but how to increase minimum wage, how you extend letters of opportunity to help people get out of poverty. in the meantime, we need to be there to make sure people have at least enough to eat. boy, what a radical idea, that people in this country, the richest country in the world ought to have enough to eat. surely we ought to be able to get a bipartisan consensus on that, and unfortunately in washington that idea has blown up. >> we declared the war on poverty, and then just decided to turn tail and run. margaret purvis, from food bank in new york, thank you for joining us.
