UTEP Upends Denver to Capture Sun Bowl Invitational Title
Dec. 29, 2013
Photo Gallery by Brian Kanof
John Bohannon had a double-double with 17 points and 15 rebounds and was named tournament MVP as UTEP won the WestStar Bank Don Haskins Sun Bowl Invitational on Sunday with a 60-54, double overtime triumph over Denver.
The Miners (10-5) registered their fifth consecutive victory, going to the line 36 times (making 26) and outrebounding the Pioneers 49-40. That was enough on a night where they shot 32.7 percent from the field but limited Denver to a .273 field goal percentage.
"Obviously we're real happy to get the win," UTEP coach Tim Floyd said. "We started off great [17-4 lead] and had a nice little cushion there. We played a very disciplined team that didn't get outside of themselves when we got up. It was something our team can learn from, their poise offensively. They just kept coming at us, kept running their stuff and eventually broke us down for a three or a back cut and really guarded us."
After falling behind 4-2, the Miners ran off 15 consecutive points. Denver closed the half with a 10-3 run to pull within six (20-14).
The Pioneers whittled an 11-point UTEP lead (33-22) down in the second half, and eventually regained the advantage, 46-44, on two free throws by Cam Griffin with 1:20 to play. Griffin led Denver with 15 points.
The Miners sent the game into overtime when C.J. Cooper hit two foul shots with 51 seconds remaining. The Pioneers' Jalen Love missed a three pointer at the buzzer.
The teams played to a 3-3 draw in the first overtime. Julian Washburn missed a potential game-winning jumper as time ran out.
In the second overtime, Denver scored five of the first seven points to take a 54-51 lead on a layup by Chris Udofia with 3:14 to go. The Miners outscored the Pioneers 9-0 over the final 2:55. Vince Hunter's layup gave UTEP the lead for good, 55-54, with 1:48 left. Hunter added a free throw at the 1:29 mark and Cooper buried a huge three with 41 seconds remaining. Jake Flaggert's free throw with 11 seconds to go completed the scoring.
UTEP made more free throws than its opponent attempted for the fifth straight game. Denver finished 12-for-16 at the line. The Miners turned their +9 rebound margin into a 17-8 advantage in second chance points.
"The key things tonight were we got offensive rebound baskets," Floyd said. "Cedrick Lang came off the bench and really helped us. Vince Hunter started the ballgame and didn't play crunch minutes for the first time in a while. He didn't play the last two minutes [in regulation] and the first overtime at all, and came in three minutes deep into the second overtime and did some great things. He received a pass from Ced in our zone offense and finished a play at the rim. He had a big block late. Ced made a couple of free throws late and C.J. knocked down a big basket late."
For a while, it looked like the teams would have a hard time scoring 40 points. It was 37-35 Miners with five minutes remaining in regulation.
"Baskets were hard to come from," Floyd said. "The key number was they shot 27 percent from the field and we had to go two overtimes, which tells us we didn't shoot it real well ourselves. We won the battle on the boards, which was probably the biggest key in the game, and we got ourselves to the foul line and kept them off the foul line."
Lang (10 points/eight rebounds) joined Bohannon on the All-Tournament Team. Hunter was the Don Haskins Award winner after collecting eight points and 10 rebounds. Cooper scored 15 points. Washburn shot 1-for-9 from the field and scored two points, but helped the Miners immensely on the other end of the floor.
"His defense was just terrific and we told him that in the locker room," Floyd said. "He had a real struggle offensively tonight and you give their defense a ton of credit. But Julian did not get affected by his lack of offense, and it's something Vince as a young player needs to pay attention to, because he's going to have nights like that in his career. Julian went out and affected the game. He had a tremendous defensive rebound late when we needed it. He handled ball well against the press and guarded his guy. Whoever we put him on, he just shuts that guy down. He takes great pride in it."
The Miners will host Angelo State in an exhibition game on Saturday (Jan. 4) at 7:05 p.m. Then it's off to Conference USA play with home games versus Charlotte on Jan. 9 and Marshall on Jan. 11.
UTEP will spend the next week and a half trying to sort out its offensive struggles. The Miners had six assists and 20 turnovers on Sunday night, clearly still adjusting to life without McKenzie Moore.
"We had one assist at halftime and I thought good gosh," Floyd said. "But again, I credit their defense. They did a great job and we're not real fluid right now. We're making adjustments in the backcourt and we don't have a real flow coming into play. It's something we're going to work on. We've got nine days before our first conference game and we plan to maximize that time with our guys and see if we can't get a little better."

Western NE Lease
I'm looking to lease a 400 acre waterfowl and world class turkey property with 1 1/2 mile of Platte River frontage near Bridgeport. It can also be used for a Whitetail property. There are seven blinds in place, dekes so you don't have to haul, and the owner of the property will even show you where the birds are at no extra charge! Alot of work has been done by DU and Wetlands Restoration and there is a roost on the owners property that typically holds 3k-7k birds. It also has a couple of deer stands (small shed type). There is also another 20,000 acres that is prime whitetail/mule deer hunting and some pretty good turkey hunting with decent waterfowl hunting. Another 6,000 acres with good deer/turkey and doing some work to improve the waterfowl hunting. Also, the adjoining 5 miles of river may be leased as well. Let me know if you are interested. Would like to know if I have some takers before I lock myself into a high $ lease. We are currently running a membership special for the next 10 members...$500 down and $50 per month for the first year. This is half price lifetime membership and first year's dues half price.
Currently, have 760 acres in Saunders County and just leased another 360 in Butler County. Will be signing the lease for the waterfowl property near Bridgeport next weekend and will continue to add new properties as membership increases. The plan is to have around 3-5K acres leased by September 1st. Still have 5 memberships left at the discounted price. Let me know if you are interested.
4 memberships left at the discounted price!

It has been a good and bad week for the family Pliny. The "elder" was that unsufferable polymath who wrote the multi-volume Natural History and was killed in the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79 (a combination of curiosity about the eruption and a rescue mission for some stranded friends). The "younger" was his nephew, the eye-witness of the eruption. It is his letters to Tacitus about the event that give us our best account of it -- even though, they were written almost 30 years later (Angelica Kauffman's reinvention of the scene preceding the eruption, with young Pliny and his mother, is at the top of this post).
As for Pliny himself, he would no doubt be disappointed to find himself best remembered for witnessing a natural disaster. The highspots of his career must have been his consulship in AD 100, plus his special imperial commission in Bithynia. He seems to have allowed the letters he exchanged with the emperor during that commission into the public domain -- and a crawling collection they are, with Trajan scarcely able to contain his irritation at Pliny constantly bothering him with trivia (one of the bits of trivia being the inconvenient Christians in his province).
Anyway both "elder" and "younger" got an outing on Radio 4 this week.

I believe that everyone who's interested in getting super strong abs and upper body will love this series. It's really intense though, so if you're someone who is still struggling with a regular plank and push ups, you should keep doing ZGYM workouts for ALL LEVELS before you jump into these eXtreme routines that require a certain amount of strength and stamina as a base. You can try to test your strength and see if this workout is for you. Can you hold a plank for an entire minute? Can you do at least 10 regular push ups? That's the absolute basic requirement for this routine. If you can't keep up completely, don't worry about it. If you don't want this workout to take you forever, than do as many reps as you can for each exercise without pausing the video. Don't worry if you can't do all the reps. Next time you do this workout, you'll do... [more]

The truck in the video below is a "mule", a kind of prototype that comes after a concept vehicle but before a pre-production model. Mules exist to test prototype components—often years ahead of production. They may contain parts from a mix of vehicles and a body from some other vehicle of about the same size. Compared to a mule, a pre-production model is much closer to the final product.
In the video below you can see what happens when the guys from TheFastLaneTruck.com encounter a mule of what is believed to be the 2015 Chevy Colorado. I have no idea how they knew where this truck was being tested or whether or not the whole thing was set up as a publicity stunt.
What I do know is that when the economy was at its worst Ford and GM stopped selling midsize trucks (Ford Ranger and Chevy S10) in the U.S. The result: Toyota and Nissan have been able to monopolize that part of the market. That GM and Ford reversed direction so quickly suggests they realize it was a mistake to stop selling midsize trucks here while continuing to sell them in other countries.

Gordon Voidwell, Lucy Wainwright Roche, Bombadil and More Set for Joe's Pub, 7/9-20
Joe's Pub at the Public Theater has announced its shows, running July 9 - 20, 2014. Details below!
Wednesday, July 9 at 7:30 PM
Kamara Thomas is a song-speller and storyteller. Her newest work Tularosa is a song-cycle and musical theater work-in-development that explores the mythology of the American West and the cultural, economic, religious and environmental movements that have shaped the American Dream. Thomas performed, recorded and toured nationally and internationally for over ten years as singer-bassist in the rock band Earl Greyhound, and fronted Americana group Kamara Thomas & The Ghost Gamblers, who in 2013 released their debut album EARTH HERO. In 2005 Kamara returned to her roots in theater and began writing, developing and performing musical storytelling experiences. Her work BULGARIA, a dark fairy-tale examining rock-n-roll mythology and the feminine creative experience, has seen numerous workshop presentations in New York.
BRIDGET EVERETT: ROCK BOTTOM (special preview performances)
Wednesday & Thursday, July 9 & 10 at 9:30 PM
In Rock Bottom, Bridget Everett, who The New York Times has called "a pure id on the rampage," barrels through life tip-toeing toward disaster, wine bottle by wine bottle and man by man. Instead of succumbing to her chardonnay-induced stupor, Bridget embraces a series of revelations that lead this voice of an angel to redemption. Rock Bottom is what happens when you're too passionate to give up, and too big to fail. The show will feature new original songs plus a few old favorites from Everett's wildly popular monthly showcase at the Pub with her band the Tender Moments. These performances are special preview performances preceding the full theatrical run of Rock Bottom, which opens The Public Theater's 2014-2015 season.
Thursday, July 10 at 7:00 PM
Nora York, singer, performance artist and Joe's Pub favorite, presents her new multimedia concert, Fables and Yarns, which combines the work of post-pop history painter Jerry Kearns and York's music compositions. Fables and Yarns joins the vision of these two iconic artists, as they, "keep an eye on things." York will jump cut through American culture as she fact checks rapid fire shifts in the narrative. Her two musical adventures, Water Water Everywhere (Joe's Pub 2013, commissioned by the Robert Rauschenburg Foundation) and Jump (Under the Radar Festival 2011) embraced Baroque and Classical operatic musical sources. This show marks her return to Rock and Roll, Country and Gospel music. Her band is Jamie Lawrence, piano; Dave Hofstra, bass; Steve Tarshis, guitar; Peter Grant, drums; and Sherryl Marshall, voice.
Friday, July 11 at 7:30 PM
The Amigos return to Joe's Pub, joined by virtuoso percussionists for a show fusing deep grooves of various cultures with the Amigos' Americana grab bag of original and traditional songs. The Amigos deliver foot-stomping, accordion-infused Americana music blending folk-rock, zydeco/cajun, and hot jazz. Rockin' solos, dare-devil harmony singing, and wild western-wear have taken the Amigos from sold-out shows at Lincoln Center to the Philadelphia Folk Festival and Nashville's Music City Roots. Fresh off of a six-week tour of Southeast Asia, The Amigos are gearing up for an exciting summer schedule that includes opening for the Carolina Chocolate Drops and Tab Benoit, and performances at the Kerrville Folk Festival, Ola Belle Reed Festival, and Oklahoma International Bluegrass Festival.
Friday, July 11 at 9:30 PM
Henry Wagons returns with his band, which is aptly named Wagons. Drawing on a broad range of influences, the Wagons show is a high sensation roller coaster ride that ranges from the bluster of sequin jumpsuit-era Elvis, post-karate kicks, to the somber, drunken malaise of Lee Hazelwood. They can touch on the tenderness of a recently heart-broken Roy Orbison while simultaneously embracing the menace of Nick Cave, bloody and embryonic after a Halloween séance performance. Wagons has shared stages around the world with Lucinda Williams, Justin Townes Earle, Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zero's, Calexico, Bill Callahan, Will Oldham, Okkervil River, John Hiatt plus more along with SXSW, Canadian Music Week and Americana showcases. Their latest and sixth studio album was produced by Mick Harvey (Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, PJ Harvey) and mixed by Matt Linesch (Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros).
Friday & Saturday, July 11 & 12 at 11:30 PM
PAM ANN returns to the Pub with her show, Fly, her most UN PC, filthiest, topical, funniest, most explosive show to date. Pam will hit the JFK tarmac Asiana style, and take passengers on the flight of their lives from check-in to security, boarding and (hopefully) landing with filthy material guaranteed to make your toes curl and have you gagging for more. With enough chutzpah and insider knowledge to rival a Qantas CEO, no one - bar no one - does airline satire quite like Pam. Her genius mix of camp, culture, humor and Pucci-clad fabulousness has seen her crew Elton John's private jet, share a stage with Cher, and count Madonna in her legion of cult-like dedicated fans worldwide.
Saturday, July 12 at 7:00 PM
Mother/daughter duo Suzzy Roche and Lucy Wainwright Roche are celebrating their first album, Fairytale and Myth, and were recently featured on NPRs Mountain Stage. Suzzy Roche is a founding member of The Roches, the much beloved trio of three sisters. Lucy Wainwright Roche will release her fourth solo recording, There's a Last Time for Everything, in the fall of 2013.
Saturday, July 12 at 9:30 PM

With a name as big as her sound, Audra Isadora makes soulful glam pop all her own and is ready to unleash her booming voice and vivacious vibrato that echo Kate Bush's eccentricity and Annie Lennox's sensational solo efforts. Armed with a full instrumental band on her self-titled EP, the NYC-based sultry powerhouse is sure to make a splash with five wildly colorful tracks that showcase her apt ability to create a delectable journey of tunes for your earbuds to feast themselves on.
New Orleans-based rapper Boyfriend is bold and unabashed, perverse and artistic. Her audacious and uncensored rendering of hip hop, a genre which she has affectionately coined, "rap cabaret," is so wrong, it's right. Spitting rhymes that reference everything from Kurt Vonnegut to period sex, Boyfriend sounds like what Marilyn Monroe would have sung to President John F Kennedy, if no one were listening. Her hyper-sexual and shamelessly nerdy lyrics have been praised by her local tastemakers, NOLA Defender, Where Y'At and I Heart NOLA, as well as Playboy Radio. She is renowned for her self-produced visual accompaniments to her satirical tracks like "Swanky" and "Jealousy."
Sunday, July 13 at 7:30 PM
Armed with a badass rock band and the voice of a fallen angel, Adam Enright takes the stage for a killer cabaret in Good Bitch Goes Down. Witty original songs, stylized pop covers and playful mash-ups tell the ludicrous tale of one man's descent from a prudish moral high ground to the dark side. Join him on a brutally funny journey to self-discovery. Good Bitch Goes Down showcases a comic and subtly moving performance about losing yourself on the way to finding out who you really are. Enright's previous performances include the title role in HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH (Los Angeles), Progressive Theatre Workshop's GOD HATES THIS SHOW at HERE Arts Center and can be seen singing at Damn The Light Productions' monthly party MIDNIGHT SPECIAL.
Sunday, July 13 at 9:30 PM
One year ago, the country was shocked by the not guilty verdict rendered in the George Zimmerman trial. The New Black Fest responded by commissioning eight diverse artists to respond to the themes of race and privilege in America. What resulted are six gorgeous ten minute plays, some hilarious and some sorrowful. With the wide range of perspective they bring, the plays incite serious discussion in our collective communities around these urgent issues.
On the anniversary of the Zimmerman verdict, the Public Theater and National Black Theatre in association with The New Black Fest are proud to present free readings of these plays in Joe's Pub. The six plays, which will be directed by Saheem Ali and Patricia McGregor, were written by Dominique Morisseau, Winter Miller, Dan O'Brien with Grammy winner Quetzal Flores, Marcus Gardley, Mona Mansour and Tala Manassah, and A. Rey Pamatmat.
Presented by the Public Theater and National Black Theatre in Association with The New Black Fest
Facing Our Truth is NOT associated with the Trayvon Martin Foundation.
Monday, July 14 at 7:30 PM
The riveting songstress Floanne returns to the Pub with her magnetic solo show Love is French. Floanne has an unparalleled passion for lyrics and acoustics - she is an instrument, resonating songs with her chanteuse and coloratura sound. Her show contrasts old-fashioned romantic songs in a didactic presentation, dissecting with humor and wisdom the cliché that love can be. Floanne has been one of our regular performers since 2012. With her acting and improv chops, she lifts the concert experience to a theatrical presentation: the perfect Bastille Day affair for the culturally hungry New Yorker.
Monday, July 14 at 9:30 PM
With a repertoire of timeless standards with a hot twist celebrating France, love and music, Avalon Jazz Band has established itself as the ambassador of Parisian swing spirit in New York City. Avalon's co-leaders, the charismatic vocalist Tatiana Eva-Marie, who has been called "one of the best young singers around" by The Wall Street Journal, and the virtuosic le jazz hot violinist Adrien Chevalier, create a beautiful balance between freewheeling Gypsy energy and the deep sensitivity of French jazz. This tribute concert for the French National Day (aka "Bastille Day") celebrates the music of the Zazous, the wartime swing kids of Paris who adopted swing as their lifestyle in a cry for freedom and expression of nonconformity. Come discover obscure French tunes and enjoy classic favorites made famous by Charles Trenet, Yves Montand, Juliette Gréco with a fresh gypsy jazz sound inspired by Django Rheinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli. Avalon Jazz Band will be joined by a young Manouche guitar master from Finland, Olli Soikkeli, and one of the most prolific clarinetists on the hot jazz scene and a specialist in French swing, Dan Levinson.
Tuesday, July 15 at 7:00 PM
The Dupont Brothers are two brothers reunited after years of geographical separation through a fortified collaboration in music. Blending the contemplative winters of the northeast with the solitary beauty of south western desert, Sam and Zack DuPont are co-conspirators in a shared passion that runs deep in their family. Lush finger-style guitar work is complimented by elegant prose and a vocal blend that could only be matched by blood relation. The sound is Vermont Made Folk-Americana.
Tuesday, July 15 at 9:30 PM
Intricately epic, viscerally cerebral: Deb Oh & the Cavaliers are a powerful study in contrasts. With orchestral, piano-driven arrangements that have grown fiercer over time, this NYC-based band boasts a singular sound led by Deb Oh's equally singular voice - a subtle mix of soul and sheer drive. The Huffington Post said, "Deb Oh and her troop are quickly making a name for themselves in the NYC music scene with their richly layered arrangements and commanding vocals, drawing comparisons to acts such as Feist, London Grammar and Daughter."
Wednesday, July 16 at 7:30 PM
Bombadil, the whimsical, chamber/pop/folk North Carolina-based band, returns to Joe's Pub to celebrate the vinyl debut and re-release of Tarpits and Canyonlands (June 21, 2014). The highly-praised album, which has a sad, strange and triumphant story, was originally released in 2009. The band is James Phillips (drums), Stuart Robinson (piano, ukulele) and Daniel Michalak (bass, piano, harmonica). Tarpits was poised to be Bombadil's breakthrough album but major health problems for Michalak, the band's driving force, brought the trajectory to a standstill. After years of doctors and treatments, Michalak came back to music and performing. Since then, the band has been building up their momentum - releasing two full-lengths All That The Rain Promises (November 2011) and Metrics of Affection (July 2013), and a limited edition 7-inch Thank You (June 2012). Finally, Tarpits and Canyonlands gets a second chance.

Middleburg Reliance Hose Company recently celebrated a year of sharing Paramedic and EMT services with Evangelical Community Hospital.
The combined services came when the two partners realized there was an opportunity to improve access to services for community members, lower charges provided to patients needing Pre-Hospital services, offset staffing challenges for the local fire company, and make better use of resources for both the fire company and the Hospital.
Starting in November 2011, Evangelical began placing a paid paramedic and EMT on initial 911 calls. The decision provided consistent staffing on rotation to the ambulance and allowed the elimination of the costs associated with a second response vehicle. Under the new structure, the EMT and Paramedic serve on location at the fire company; when an emergency call comes in they respond through the coordination of services under one roof.
The transition has been smooth and positive with a huge impact in efficient service and lower cost for patients. The occasional confusion of seeing personnel with Evangelical apparel or name tags is easily explained with patients knowing they are receiving the quality emergency care they expect when the ambulance arrives on scene.
Jared Mizer, Ambulance Captain of Reliance Hose Company, said, "Reliance Hose Company has always made serving the community its top priority. The partnership with Evangelical has proven to be a perfect fit for that mission, with our community members having available to them rapid-response Advanced Life Support coverage 24 hours a day, 7 days a week."
The year of partnership has included a total of 1,045 ambulance calls comprised of 737 medical calls, 268 trauma calls, and 40 stand-by situations such as a fire or accident where there is a chance for ambulance need.
Nicholas Klose, Director of Pre-Hospital Services for Evangelical, said, "We constantly look for the most efficient ways to get patients the emergency care they need while keeping in mind cost and resources involved. This partnership with Middleburg is similar to one we've had with Mifflinburg, Milton and Watsontown. In total, Evangelical has 88 employees in Pre-Hospital services serving our communities."
Klose continued, "Reliance Hose Company has a long history of providing excellent emergency services to Middleburg service area and now through this partnership they support rural areas like Richfield, Beaver Springs, Troxelville, and Kreamer. By building on that experience and working together we are assuring accessible ambulance services continue for a long-time to come."
Evangelical Community Hospital is a non-profit organization that employs approximately 1,300 people and has more than 170 employed and non-employed physicians on staff. The Hospital is licensed to accommodate 127 overnight patients, 12 acute rehab patients and 18 bassinets. The Hospital serves residents throughout the Central Susquehanna Valley, including those living in Snyder, Union, Northumberland and Lycoming Counties.

gGadget > HP® Raises The Bar On Lowering Power Consumption
Hewlett Packard is setting out to change the way companies like Facebook and Amazon power their servers. In a conference in 2009, Facebook's VP of technical operations, Jonathan Heiliger, explained his dissatisfaction with the current offerings from the leading chipmakers in the world.
Heiliger's complaints stem from the huge amounts of power that are sucked up by the massive servers of companies like his. Powering a single chip, even with the most efficient units on the market, still eats up about 8 watts. That's for an energy efficient model. For a standard run-of-the-mill chip, you're looking at 45 watts of power consumption.
Enter the Calxeda EnergyCore chip. This is the Prius of computer chips, meaning there is a tradeoff. Mostly that comes in the form of lost performance power in favor of incredible energy efficiency. The chip requires about 1.5 watts to operate and while it won't have the performance of its energy-gobbling competitors, it will be enough to power the huge servers of Facebook, Amazon and other server farms.
HP, a company that is badly in need of a win after the debacle of their quickly-canned TouchPad tablet, recently announced it has designed a 288-chip rack unit that is only seven inches tall. This could be the beginning of something very good for the company.
The rack unit is part of a new program HP is calling Project Moonshot. The project is geared toward improving energy efficiency. The Pathfinder Program is one part of Moonshot that is especially interesting. The program has essentially created an "ecosystem" of industry leaders that will allow companies like Calxeda, AMD and Intel to collaborate and exchange ideas on how to develop the most effective, low-energy chips and servers possible.
If the EnergyCore takes off and does end up powering servers of huge companies like Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg might just convert the Sweden-based server farm he recently announced plans for into his summer vacation home.

|I think it's very important that a non-"natural" birth be recoginzed as a valued, potentially wonderful event. A c-section birth is unnatural...and that's why it's great. Women and babies dying in childbirth is natural; babies malpositioned such that they can never be born, so they die in the womb, that is natural. That doesn't make it good.
|I personally don't consider most hospital births natural, even if there were no pain meds. Being pumped full of Pitocin, monitored, forced to stay in bed, pushing flat on your back, and having a three-inch cut in your perineum is NOT natural, even if it was unmedicated.

In its most basic form, insurance is a way to spread the risk of a catastrophic event among a large group of people. Everybody pays a little bit into a pool of money and then if something "bad" happens to one of those people, that one person gets the money from the pool. If you find out that you have cancer, you might be forced to pay for extended hospital stays, surgeries, chemotherapy, and so forth. The bills would be so big that it would bankrupt most people. Yes, the odds of being diagnosed with cancer are relatively small, but if the unthinkable happens, it is pretty catastrophic financially (among other things).
To protect against this loss, most people buy health insurance. You, along with thousands of other people, might pay $5,000 a year towards this insurance. The insurance company collects money from you and thousands of other people and sets the money aside. Then, if one person's gets ill, the insurance company takes some of the money they collected and uses it pay for the medical care that you need to get better.
The benefit of this type of arrangement is enormous. While $5,000 a year is not chump change by any stretch of the imagination, writing that check gives you the peace of mind to know that you'll be able to afford to get the medical treatments that you need. That, certainly, is worth $5,000 a year.
One of the potential pitfalls of this arrangement is known as "Adverse Selection". Adverse selection is when a person buys insurance only when they know that they'll need it.
Let's say that you don't have any health insurance whatsoever. You experience sharp pains in your side so you go to the doctor. The doctor examines you and says that your appendix is about to burst and that you need to go to the hospital immediately to have it removed. Faced with a $25,000 medical bill, you immediately dial up your local insurance agent (preferably while you are en route to the hospital) and purchase health insurance so that you can cover your impending five figure bill.
If you could actually do that, one of two things would happen. Either the insurance companies would go bankrupt, or premiums would be so high that it would be just as expensive to just pay the medical bill out of pocket. Why is that? The whole premise of insurance is that you collect premiums from the many and pay claims to the few. That way, the relatively smaller premiums from the larger group are able to pay for the relatively larger medical bills of the smaller group. However, if only the sick buy insurance, then this math doesn't work anymore.
To combat this phenomenon, insurance companies do a number of things. One thing they do is that they don't pay for medical bills on so called "pre-existing conditions". This prevents you from buying insurance when you need it. You can't just pick up the phone and buy a policy when you are faced with $25,000 worth of medical bills. You have to buy it when you are healthy.
Of course, this pre-existing condition clause casts a wide net. While it does prevent somebody from buying insurance only when they need to make a claim, it also prevents people who might lose their job or who retire early or who are too old to be covered under their parents' health insurance. In this case what happens is that these people avoid going to the doctor altogether. In the long run, this might make their medical condition even worse. Eventually, they might end up in the hospital in a life-or-death situation. In this case, the hospital ends up footing the bill, since they are obligated to save the patient's life. The cost of this care isn't free, since it gets added to the hospital bill of each and every one of the paying customers. Additionally, this care costs more than it would have cost if the person had just been able to go to the doctor for routine checkups.
To prevent this from happening, one could do away with this pre-existing condition clause. Now if you did that, then premiums would go up from everybody since now you'd have people only buying insurance when they absolutely needed it. We have a dilemma here. There are two options:
- Either we have to keep the pre-existing clause clause and let people go uninsured which makes things more expensive for everybody in the long run, or
- We get rid of the pre-existing conditions clause which drives up insurance premiums which makes things more expensive for everybody in the long run.
Get rid of the pre-existing condition clause so that everybody can access insurance, but require everybody to buy insurance so that people can't buy it when they need it.
It is an elegant solution to a tough problem. Not only does it extend coverage to more people, but it keeps the insurance premiums lower. From an economic standpoint, this aspect of Obamacare makes perfect sense.
Now I understand and acknowledge that there is something inherently fishy about the Government requiring people to buy a product from a private company. However, health insurance is something that is unique among most commercial products. Unless buying a TV or something, there is a public policy component to health care, as its rising cost impacts society as a whole. If somebody can't afford a TV, well then tough luck. Not being able to watch the latest reality show really doesn't cause society as a whole any harm. However, when people cannot afford health care, that's a different story. People will get health care with or without insurance. If they don't have insurance and they cannot afford to pay, we all pay for it. We pay for it through higher premiums. We pay for it through higher taxes. Therefore, rather than burying our heads in the sand and not deal it because of some dogmatic belief, we need to somehow figure out a way to solve this issue.

Suprise Delivery
In 2007 Sara gave birth to her first child, a 9lb healthy baby boy. Even though her labor was induced, she was more than happy with her experience.
"After I gave birth to my son I thought to myself that I can't wait to have another baby," said Sara. "My experience at Sutter Memorial Hospital was amazing."
A couple years later Sara was pregnant with her second child. She again went through her pregnancy with Elizabeth Gonzalez, M.D., her OBGYN with Sutter Medical Group in Elk Grove. Everything was progressing normally until she started having contractions during her 25th week.
"Because my first child was induced, I had no idea what early labor felt like," said Sara. "I went to the hospital worried and the labor and delivery team did everything they could to try to stop the contractions. When my nurse finally examined me she gave me a hug and told me that I was 6 cm dilated and my daughter was ready to come out. But she assured me everything would be ok."
Sara's daughter, Mary Elizabeth, was born weighing exactly 2 pounds and was only 13 and ½ inches long.
"I remember reading that preemies who hit the two pound mark have a better chance at survival, and that gave me a sense of hope," recalled Sara. "And I was really impressed that the doctor still put her on my chest and did all the normal steps they do after birth to help with the bonding."
While in the NICU Sara worked with her nurses to start a regime to exclusively use fortified breast milk to nourish her daughter instead of formula because she knew premature babies need the extra nutrients to support their immune system. Her neonatologist Arthur Lyons, M.D., supported her request and worked with the team in the NICU to use only breast milk, and then provided lactation support when Elizabeth was ready to breastfeed.
"I was able to exclusively breastfeed my son for the first year and I saw no reason why I shouldn't do at least that much for Elizabeth."
Ninty days later, two weeks before her official due date, Mary Elizabeth was able to go home with her family weighing over 6 pounds.
"I felt like Sutter Memorial was my home for so long," said Sara. "Every time I drive by the hospital I feel like I should stop in and say hi to the team that supported my family during Elizabeth's stay at the NICU, and sometimes I do."
Elizabeth is now a happy and healthy one-year-old…and soon to be a big sister. Sara is expecting her third child this winter.
"We now know there is a 50/50 chance with each pregnancy that I may have another early labor due to the formation of my uterus," said Sara. "But I feel confident because I know Sutter is there to take care of me and my baby."

Got owned in my stock wagon by a SVT cobra mustang, from a light i pulled on him in 1st as he was spinning. Then he went by me like i was sitting still. So i pull up to him at next light and we exchange the thumbs up and i ask him stock? He says it runs 11s, and i bet it does.
So then i come home, its a beautifull day. Decided to take my 87 GN for a spin, T76/T4 1.15AR P trim turbine, 96lb injectors, cam, built TH350 trans, 5k rpm stall with line lock and 2 step, stock block motor never opened, 10.5" DOT drag slicks etc etc etc. Best pass on 16psi boost was firstname.lastname@example.com...... Not looking for any races as im just taking a cruise, these 2 punk kids in a C5 keep tailing me, i doubt they were over 18 years old. Finally we come to a light and they keep reving on me, so i get annoyed and hit the 2 step POP POP POP POOOOOOOP, scare the crap out of them while building boost, light turns green im stalled 5k rpm with 10psi of boost, i let them get the launch with them thinking they won but then i let all hell break loose on them and put atleast 15 cars on them by 100. Point is i hate cocky kids in their daddys vettes, dont play with a GN
Sorry i dont street race, havent done it in years or ever plan on it. But today the sh*t hit the fan.

|Dear Mr Amature Appliance Repair Person.
Your White, twenty two cubic foot, 2001 model, GE fridge has a known defect. I tried to tell you how to go about getting it fixed for good and possibly for free.
Here is the break down you asked for. This is your chute door solenoid. Be sure and at least check it before you order a new one. Plan on replacing it about every year and a half.
I have seen several times where the sweating on the electronics has taken out the dispenser board.
When the dispenser boards have shorted out they have held the fill solenoids open until they've burned out too. Of course there was a little water on the floor.

Jens Lehmann's anger is not only acceptable but understandable, according to Arsène Wenger.
The Arsenal keeper was quoted this week as saying the Club's Champions League exit was "a disaster" especially as he had been watching it from the substitutes' bench. Manuel Almunia has taken over the No 1 spot this season and the Spaniard's future seems assured after he signed a new long-term contract last week.
However, speaking at Friday's press conference, the Arsenal manager maintained that Lehmann's irritation was perfectly normal for a player out of the side and he still enjoys a cordial relationship with the 38-year-old German.

Jens," said Wenger. "I have had arguments yes, but always
full of respect. Frankly I don't need the newspapers to learn
that he is angry because he doesn't play. But I make my
decision and that is nothing to do with Jens' personality.
"What is important for me is that he works every day like mad to win his place. I prefer someone like that than someone who doesn't talk and doesn't produce. Every day, at 9.30am, he is in the gym. When he goes out, he gives 100 per cent. I respect that.
"He fights to get his place. I don't expect him to say 'yes I am very happy that I don't play'. He doesn't play, he is unhappy. But he did know that and he decided to stay. I told him 'if you stay, you might not play'."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

The guest will be held responsible for any loss or damage to the villa property caused by themselves, their guests or any person for whom they are responsible.
Villas were large, comfortably appointed and for the most part - quite clean. Location was good for exploring little side walk stores and massage parlors. Full kitchen facilities - two thumbs up for that. My whole family group occupied 4 villas - there were 20 of us - and there were no major complaints.
Bathrooms/Toilets may need a little bit of updating - they were a little dated. Out of the 3 bedrooms in our villa - one had a very weak aircon system - again, not a major flaw - just an observation - that could have made our stay even more comfortable had it been fixed. Private pools were a huge draw - again - out of the 4 villas - 2 private pools had murky water and slimy pool bottoms. This isn't a big deal for us - but can become a deal breaker for others.
Overall, I do feel this is a pretty decent villa set up - however, a little bit more attention to hygiene and maintenance of the actual working order of things rather than only in the decorative display elements would make this a perfect little slice of private paradise.

BMA-Minnesota to Explore the Use of Social Media within the B2B Marketing Arena
A panel of social media experts will discuss how business-to-business organizations can effectively use social media strategy to help achieve business goals
MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Minnesota chapter of the Business Marketing Association (BMA-Minnesota) will host a panel discussion on how business-to-business (B2B) marketers can use social media to boost their performance metrics and support a customer-centric business model. The session will be held on March 11, 2009 at the Metropolitan Ballroom & Clubroom in St. Louis Park, Minn. from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m.
Featuring local social media experts, the session will provide an overview of social networking sites, search engine optimization and emerging new media to watch for as well as discuss what's working, what's not and what's here to stay within the social media universe. Moderated by Beth Fischer, market research advisor from The TCI Group, panelists include:
- Mark Palony, marketing manager of SAP Solutions at SoftBrands
- Jared Roy, president of Risdall Integration Group
- Tom Pick, author of WebMarketCentral.com and marketing executive at KC Associates, LLC
"We've all heard about business-to-consumer companies joining Facebook, Twitter and blogs to generate consumer business and brand loyalty but there is little discussion about how the same strategies can be applied for B2B companies," said Chris Schermer, president of BMA-Minnesota. "This panel will dispel the misperception that social media can't be applied in the B2B arena by illustrating how tools like Twitter and blogs can be applied to monitor, communicate and engage audiences."
Sponsored by Minnesota's only professional organization dedicated exclusively to the needs of business-to-business marketing professionals, the event will be held at the Metropolitan located at 5418 Wayzata Blvd, Minneapolis.
The program will run from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. with registration and continental breakfast beginning at 7:30 a.m. The cost of the event is $25 for BMA members and $40 for non-members.

| September 11, 1996
|Circular No. 10872
--For Unexpired Portion of Term Ending December 31, 1996
To the Member Banks of the Second Federal Reserve District:
A special election will be held under the provisions of section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, to fill the vacancy in the office of class B director of this Bank for the unexpired portion of the term ending December 31, 1996, from which Sandra Feldman, President of the United Federation of Teachers, New York, N.Y., has resigned. At the same time, an election for the following three-year term of that office, ending December 31, 1999, will be held, also under those statutory provisions.
Ms. Feldman was elected by member banks in Group 3 and her successor(s) will be chosen by this group. Member banks in Groups 1 and 2 will not participate in these elections.
The classification of member banks for the purposes of nomination and election of class A and class B directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is as follows:
Group 1 consists of banks with capital and surplus of more than $1 billion;
Group 2, of banks with capital and surplus of $30 million to $1 billion, inclusive; and
Group 3, of banks with capital and surplus of less than $30 million.
For purposes of these elections, a member bank's classification will be determined by its capital and surplus as of the date of this circular, even though its capital and surplus may change before the polls close. The list of banks comprising Group 3 begins on page 3.
Except in the case of any member banks that are subsidiaries of the same bank holding company,¹ each member bank in Group 3 will be permitted, in both the special and regular elections, to nominate a candidate for class B director.² The nominations should be made by resolutions of the boards of directors of the nominating banks (or by resolutions of the banks' executive committees, if such committees are empowered to take such action), and certified copies of such resolutions should be sent so as to reach this Bank on or before 3 p.m. on Thursday, October 10, 1996. The enclosed printed forms show the appropriate form of resolution; one executed copy of each form should be returned to this Bank in the envelope provided for that purpose.
On October 15, 1996, copies of the list of candidates in each election (indicating by whom nominated) and preferential ballots will be mailed to the banks in Group 3. The law provides that the ballots shall be cast within 15 days after receipt of the list. The polls in each election will open at 10 a.m., October 16, 1996, and will close at 12 noon on Thursday, October 31, 1996. Upon the closing of the polls, the ballot box will be opened in the board room of this Bank, the votes counted and checked by tellers, and the results of the elections announced. The candidates may, if they so desire, be present or represented on that occasion.
In order to be counted as valid, the ballots must be executed by an officer authorized to cast the vote and must be received by this Bank at or before the time thus fixed for the closing of the polls (i.e., at or before 12 noon on Thursday, October 31, 1996). The officers heretofore designated for this purpose by each bank in Group 3 are shown on the list beginning on page 3. Any Group 3 bank that desires to change its authorization should do so by resolution of its board of directors; a certified copy of such resolution must reach this Bank before the polls close. A form for this purpose is enclosed.
Because banks in Groups 1 and 2 will not participate in this election, this circular is sent to them without forms and for their information only.
¹Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, reads in part as follows:
. . .That whenever any member banks within the same Federal Reserve district are subsidiaries of the same bank holding company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, participation in any such nomination or election by such member banks, including such bank holding company if it is also a member bank, shall be confined to one of such banks, which may be designated for the purpose by such holding company.
Pursuant to the foregoing provision, a nomination by any bank that is a subsidiary of a bank holding company having other subsidiaries in the same voting group cannot be accepted unless there is on file with this Bank evidence that such bank has been so designated.
²Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, reads in part as follows:
"Class B shall consist of three members, who shall represent the public and shall be elected without discrimination on the basis of race, creed, color, sex, or national origin, and with due but not exclusive consideration to the interests of agriculture, commerce, industry, services, labor, and consumers....No director of class B shall be an officer, director, or employee of any bank."
"No Senator or Representative in Congress shall be a member of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or an officer or director of a Federal reserve bank."
[The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System has expressed the opinion that it is inappropriate, as a general rule, for directors of Federal Reserve Banks to hold partisan political or public office in the service of the United States, or of any State, Territory, county, district, political subdivision, or municipality thereof, to act as members of political party committees, or to serve as officers or directors of political action committees or as members of the governing bodies of such committees. The System's policy is to avoid any situations that might give the appearance of associating the Reserve Banks with political activities.]
Elections of Class B Director
