Is Rio Carnival on your to-do list for 2015?
You have probably heard about the Carnival in Rio de Janeiro. It is every bit as exciting as what you hear about. If you want to experience this for yourself, you should do some research before booking your Rio Carnival Package. Carnival can be overwhelming for some people who are not accustomed to such excitement. So, if this is your first time, you should plan ahead. There are many wonderful packages out there for you. So as not to be surprised, here is what you can expect from the Carnival in Rio 2015.
Carnival is all about music. When you get there, you will hear music everywhere, up and down the streets. Everyone can be found in the streets dancing and having a great time. Brazilian music is all about rhythm and beats and on every corner you will hear it. Bands will practice for the parade day, or they may be out just having a good time. If you are expecting a vacation of peace and quiet, Carnival is not for you. This is where you come to have fun along with the locals. If you need quiet, just go back to your hotel room. When you are out, get ready to party!
You will see people dancing in the streets, adults and children alike. Samba dancing is the most popular, and you will see some beautiful dancers. There are many samba schools in Rio. Each school will compete during the Carnival parade. So get ready to see some great performances. Each school comes up with its own choreograph, so the style and moves will be amazing. The students love to show off what they have learned, and you can feel their energy as they perform for the audience. The students give it their all, and you will not believe how marvelous their performance will be.
You will see beautiful costumes that are unique and flamboyant. These costumes reflect the cultural influences that make up the Brazilian culture. You will see a mix of African, European and other histories all blended in. The samba schools come up with their own costumes, and every year they wear something new. You will not see old costumes from last year as each year, they strive to be better than previous years.
Carnival lasts all through the Lent season. So, do not count on just staying there for one day. In fact, you should make the most of your time there and book your Rio Carnival Package for several days at least. You will have fun and excitement everyday that you are there. There is nothing like this experience anywhere else.
Carnival is really the most famous and exciting parade in the whole world. About two million people participate in this big event. Not two parades are the same. This is why your Rio Carnival 2015 will be a once in a life time experience if you attend.
An exciting time awaits you in Rio de Janeiro. You have been reading all about it, and this is the time to take action. If you have always wondered about it, wonder no more.

The new Energy Performance Certificate shows the impact of having the solar panels installed and results in the very pleasing score of 100. The only suggested improvement is the installation of a wind turbine (and I'm not going to bother with that).
The estimated 3-year energy costs are only about £500 lower than for my old house (which was thoroughly average in Band D – but much smaller) but the solar PV is predicted to offset those costs almost completely. The score of 100 indicates that the house will generate as much energy as it consumes (at least for the basic services of heating, lighting and hot water) so the net cost should be zero.

Tony Pulis sacked: Where did it all go wrong for the former West Brom coach
WEST BROM'S sacking of Tony Pulis has the "dinosaur" haters raising their spears in triumph. But the critics might do well to remember that Pulis, for all his faults, was Premier League Manager of the Year less than four years ago.
Tony Pulis has been sacked by West Brom
So what's gone wrong since April 2014 when the firmly old-school Welshman was judged to have pulled off the achievement of the year by taking Crystal Palace from the foot of the table to an astonishing 11th place?
Well, quite a lot actually. But in fairness it's probably the last 12 months which have seen the 59-year-old take some punches which have knocked the wind out of him.
Pulis is a scrapper, make no mistake about that. There are a few younger men who have crossed swords with him who seriously wished they hadn't. Yet 12 months ago virtually to the day it was a 70-year-old High Court judge who knocked Pulis to the deck.
Just how much the damning deliberations of Sir Michael Burton took out of Pulis, only he will know. It certainly took a hefty chunk out of his bank balance – almost £5m – and damaged his reputation as Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish won his legal battle for the return of a £2m 'survival' bonus paid to Pulis.
The manager's reputation was in tatters as he left court accused of "disgraceful conduct" and acting fraudulently. He was ordered to pay back the bonus of £2,276,000, plus £1.5m liquidated damages, along with costs – estimated to take the bill to £5m.
Still, Pulis could fall back on the good job he was doing at West Brom with the club comfortably in the top half of the table.
The following January West Brom finally got Saido Berahino off their hands. A gifted striker, Berahino's antics had been a permanent distraction to Pulis.
True, they ended up getting around £7m less than they could have done in selling him to Stoke for £13.5m, but there was a genuine feeling that Berahino not being around could only help team harmony.
Yet from April 1 this year, West Brom have been on a slide that made Pulis's removal inevitable.
Tony Pulis has been sacked at West Brom
The All Fools' Day draw with Manchester United was one of only two points they would take from the remaining 27 available last season.
There was worse to come. No one should under-estimate the damaging effect of skipper Darren Fletcher's departure.
The former United man, viewed by many within the dressing room as Pulis's 'Teacher's Pet', walked out and joined the manger's old club Stoke on a free transfer.
Record £18m signing Nacer Chadli has hardly been seen since he refused to attend Pulis's notorious pre-season training boot camp in Austria.
He has battled with an injury, but there's a strange whiff around why he has managed only two appearances this season – one less than he has played for Belgium.
Darren Fletcher left West Brom in the summer for Stoke
It's against that backdrop, growing crowd unrest and a catastrophic run of results that Pulis started to take that perilous walk to the gallows.
When he came out fighting, armed with countless stats, at what proved to be his final press conference, those of us there sensed he knew his time was up.
He went down fighting – he knows no other way. But with the chips already down and defending champions Chelsea visiting town, there was no escape.
Pulis warned the clubs owners and supporters that they should be careful what they wish for. What they get now remains to be seen.
What Pulis gets now will also be interesting but, chances are, it won't be in the Premier League.

For Public Release
Butts County School System
January 19 , 2018
As of January 19 , 2018, severe weather has caused the cancellation of 6 school days for our students. This loss of academic time for our children is significant considering that our school calendar is 170 days this year.
In ligh t of these conditions and to protect the academic needs of our students , the Butts County School System is enacting the following school make - up plan and contingencies for students :
1. Students will make up one day of school on Monday, February 5, 2018. This day was previousl y scheduled as a "Teacher Work - Day," and we are now scheduling the day as a regular student school day. All schools will operate normal classroom schedules on that day. Hopefully, most of our parents will find this change to be helpful, as they will not have to ar range day - care for children on that day.
2. If the school system has to cancel one more additional day of school after Friday, January 19 , before the Winter Break (February 19 - 23), students will make up three days of school on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of that week (February 21, 22, and 23).
T he students and staff will still have holidays regardless on Monday and Tuesday of that week (February 19 a nd 20). In summary, if we miss one more day of school due to hazardous conditions before February 19 , the Winter Bre ak will be shortened to just Monday and Tuesday of that week as holidays . The rest of the week (Wed - Fri) will be normal school days.
Again, to clarify, if we miss one more day of school between now and Winter Break, students will have a holiday on February 19 and 20, and they will mak e up three days of school on February 21, 22, and 23.
3. If we miss any additional days between February 26 and March 16, students will make up a school day on March 19, which was previously scheduled as a teacher workday.

Browns to release troubled wide receiver Josh Gordon
The Cleveland Browns are going to release troubled wide receiver Josh Gordon.
The stunning news came Saturday, just hours after the team announced that Gordon would miss Sunday's game in New Orleans with a hamstring injury. Gordon has been suspended for most of the past four seasons because of multiple drug violations.
The 27-year-old missed training camp to undergo counseling and treatment. He played in the season opener last week, his first Week 1 game since 2012, and had one catch for 17 yards and a touchdown.
Browns general John Dorsey said in a statement that the team has informed Gordon's representatives that he will be released Monday.
"For the past six years, the Browns have fully supported and invested in Josh, both personally and professionally and wanted the best for him, but unfortunately we've reached a point where we feel it's best to part ways and move forward," Dorsey said.
Kendricks to play: New Seattle Seahawks linebacker Mychal Kendricks will play Monday night against Chicago despite his pending jail sentence.
Kendricks playing creates an odd situation for all involved considering his guilty plea last week on insider trading charges in Philadelphia. He's not expected to be sentenced in the case until January and the NFL has yet to impose any discipline, meaning he's eligible to play. Kendricks, who won a Super Bowl title with the Eagles last season, was released by the Browns on Aug. 29.

April 1st Portage College Sports & Education Dinner a Huge Success.
A Hockey Hall of Famer and a former NHL player turned broadcaster helped Portage College raise a lot of money for a new endowment fund. Former Winnipeg Jet great Dale Hawerchuk and former Boston Bruin and Hockey Night in Canada personality P.J. Stock headlined the College's 17th Annual Sports and Education Dinner April 1 in Lac La Biche. The pair shared entertaining stories about their careers with a sold-out crowd of 290 people and interacted with fans well into the night. The event helped the College raise $35,500 for the new Spirit of Community Partnerships Endowment, bringing the total fund amount to $118,500. The College hopes the fund will eventually reach $1 million.
"We are so grateful to our sponsors, our speakers, our entertainers, our auctioneer and everyone who attended for making this year's Sports and Education Dinner one of our best ever," said Portage College President and CEO Dr. Trent Keough. "They all contributed to a memorable evening and helped us kick-start an important endowment fund that will benefit young people for years to come."
The Spirit of Community Partnerships Endowment is a newly-established fund aimed at fostering youth community involvement. Scholarships will be awarded to students who give back to their communities by volunteering and becoming role models for others.
"Portage College has always invested in the amazing communities and people that we serve," said Dr. Keough. "The Spirit of Community Partnerships is a continuation of that legacy."
"I can't say thank you enough to our fantastic volunteers, those who donated items and everyone who came out to support the College and the endowment," said Rick Flumian, Manager Community Relations, who did a masterful job organizing his first Sports & Education Dinner event. "It was a wonderful event. I'm already looking forward to next year!"

Apartments La Muralla
The Canary Islands › La Palma › Near Puerto Naos
A small cluster of apartments on the hillside above Puerto Naos, with splendid ocean views from their terraces and from the attractive infinity pool
- 11 Apartments with 1 or 2 bedrooms for 2-4 people
- Self-Catering
- Swimming pool
- Car hire included
Tucked into the hillside next close to the Mirador de Puerto Naos viewpoint, this well-maintained apartment complex affords equally fine views down to this small beach resort and out to sea. Being on the west coast, these views are especially enchanting when the sun sets, and perhaps the best vantage point from which to enjoy the ocean views is the lovely infinity pool. The pool is bordered by a paved terrace and a springy lawn, offering plenty of space to sunbathe and enjoy the views.
In addition to the communal space, each of the 11 apartments, which are staggered into the hillside, has its own large terrace with patio tables and chairs, as well as a pair of sun-loungers. All the apartments have a bedroom with a double bed; and roughly half have a second bedroom with a single bed (there is also a sofa-bed in the living rooms). The open-plan kitchenettes are separated from the sitting areas by a breakfast bar and are equipped with a fridge, a two-ring hob, a coffeemaker and a toaster. Safety deposit boxes and satellite TV (with limited English-language channels) are also provided, and naturally each apartment also has a shower room.
The resort of Puerto Naos, which boasts a beach of dark volcanic sand and a selection of mini-markets, cafés and restaurants is only 1 km away, but as access from the apartments to the resort is along a rather steep road without any pavements, we have automatically included a hire car in your holiday here.

The team, led by Dr Josephine Bowles and Professor Peter Koopman from the Institute for Molecular Bioscience at The University of Queensland, has discovered that derivatives of Vitamin A trigger the beginning of egg and sperm production, a process known as meiosis.
The cells that eventually turn into either eggs or sperm known as germ cells are identical in male and female embryos.
"Whether a germ cell develops into an egg or a sperm depends on the time at which meiosis begins," Professor Koopman said.
"In females, meiosis begins before birth and eggs are produced, whereas in males, meiosis begins after birth and the result is sperm."
Professor Koopman and his team found that retinoic acid, a derivative of Vitamin A, causes germ cells in female embryos to begin meiosis, leading to the production of eggs.
They also discovered an enzyme present in male embryos that wipes out retinoic acid and so suppresses meiosis until after birth, resulting in sperm production.
"This is an extremely important process that nobody has been able to figure out until now," Professor Koopman said.
"It is textbook science and it should provide the basis for a number of practical applications."
Knowledge of what triggers and suppresses meiosis may allow researchers to improve fertility, for example in the case of an infertile couple wanting a baby, or suppress it, in the case of pest management.
Professor Koopman also suggested that an inappropriate retinoid signal might give the wrong instructions to germ cells, which could lead to the formation of germ cell tumours.
"Our research has suggested a possible cause for these common testicular

First and foremost, a website is an online portfolio of you, your background, and your fine art painting or other artwork.
Years ago, artists spent copious time and bundles of money making slides of their work and 8 x 10 prints that they tucked into a leather portfolio case and lugged around with them from gallery to gallery. Those who spent more time and money made multiple portfolios that they sent to locations as opposed to flying themselves and their portfolios of painting works there.
Unless you take the time to blog, write, post, market, and advertise your presence, your amazing website with all your painting work on it will remain undiscovered, like a secret stream in a hidden canyon. Blue Ribbon by Steve Henderson of Steve Henderson Fine Art.
Now, it's all online, available for anyone to view who has the website address. This address you can send to gallery owners, show organizers, fellow painting artists, museums, educational institutions–anyplace or anyone you are approaching about viewing your art. That's the beauty of it.
And here is a reality of it that many people overlook: As beautiful and handy as websites are, they are not self-marketing. Just because you have a website does not mean that people will easily find it, as one artist I chatted with sadly did not realize.
"I'm putting the finishing touches on the website, and once it's up, people will be calling me to buy my art!"
Truth is, there are millions of websites out there, and just because yours exists does not mean that it will show up at the top of the first page of a search engine. That requires additional, ongoing work, which goes to show a basic premise of being an artist who markets your own work. You need to spend as much time marketing as you do creating. Not everyone, like my Norwegian Artist, is married to his or her marketer, but in one way or another, you will be married to your marketing plan.
Be persistent, keep at it, don't get discouraged, and do a little each day. Sounds a lot like living a healthy life, doesn't it?

In a twist that I'm sure Madame Marois did not see coming, Quebec tossed the PQs and her racist minions out on their collective asses.
The provincial election saw a turnout of over 70% participation and elected the provincial Liberals with 70 seats. Marois also did not hold on to her own seat, which will amusingly create lots of drama for the PQs in the next few weeks and months.
While there was perhaps a collective sigh of relief last night, I'm not as optimistic that this will be long lived. Not so long ago, the previous corrupt band of Liberal bribe takers and other affiliated looters had been caught with many hands in many cookie jars and caught transferring many envelopes of cash in folded newspapers. In order for Quebec to really benefit from this change of course, Quebec's economy will have to be stealth strong and the corruption in the province will also have to be eradicated.
Make no mistake, the corruption problem should and will remain in the front of the minds of Quebecers. This fact gives Philippe Couillard and his newly elected Liberals a very thin tightrope of which to walk upon. The rest of Canada and Quebecers are quite aware of the chronic corruption and organized crime connections that lay in wait in Quebec, hoping to regain their stranglehold on the construction industry and other areas of the province. Because past Liberals have been accused of being associated with various goons, this new band of Liberals will be under a large microscope. This newly branded Liberal Party of Quebec have to be more than "pure wool", they have to be as pure as the driven snow. If not, the malcontents and separatists will come back with a vengeance.
So while some may claim that this is the end of the separatist movement, I am again not so optimistic. All that it will take to put it back on the up-swing, is for never-ending corruption to rear its head and form ties to this new gang of Liberals.
We'll be watching and after the smile of the moment leave our faces as we watched Marois get her just desserts, we'll again realize that Quebec separatism is always hiding not so peacefully behind the curtain.

12.6.10 ~ 100 word diary
Yoga got cancelled. I watched Grey's Anatomy, drew some lotuses, made an aubergine and tomato pasta. Correctly predicted the score for the England v USA match and rather enjoyed cheering on USA. Also listened to the Lightning Seeds' Pure on youtube - I hadn't heard it in years. It made me all nostalgic for my youth. Even though I know I was going through hard times then, I clearly remember feeling hopeful about the future. What will I remember about now in years to come? I still feel hopeful, but these days my hopes are for Jake rather than myself.

Random France
Psychiatrists in the South of France
29 November, 2005
The French Ministry of Social Affairs (DREES) recently released a study on the dispersion of professions across the different departements of France. The results are probably of no importance to any of us, but some of the results are interesting.
At the beginning of 2004 there were 14,000 working psychiatrists in France, which is 22 psychiatrists for every 100,000 inhabitants, the highest density of shrinks in Europe. The psychiatrists in France are concentrated in urban zones [naturally, that's where the people are] and in the South of France [that's where the need is?].

Components of the Criminal Justice System
The Criminal Justice System refers to the process by which persons committing criminal offenses are arrested, followed by systematic investigation to determine proof. After which charges are laid, defense is raised, trials conducted and sentencing rendered if found guilty or acquitted if innocent. Criminal offense is an evil act or omission punishable by law; and/or a long record of crime. An offense can be a minor or major violation, example of minor offense is jaywalking and some major offenses are murder, arson, and treason. Crime, offense, and criminal offense are used interchangeably. Mens rae (awareness of guilt) and actus reus (the act) are two important elements necessary to prove a crime.
Criminal conduct is the violation of the law of a state or country which prohibits certain conduct. Criminal conduct evaluates the individual's behavior in the criminal offenses raised and is not based on whether the individual was prosecuted or convicted.
Criminal offenses are usually investigated by researching the facts and/or incidents, situations, scenarios, to prove the guilt of the individual. Thorough investigation is carried out systematically, capturing minute details, analyzing and scrutinizing information to arrive at a conclusion to prosecute the individual committing the criminal offense. The evidence collected determines the charges laid against the individual, and a defense is made to oppose or defeat the prosecution of the criminal offense.
The trial is a judicial examination of the issues between the parties, whether they are issues of law or facts, presented in court before a jury or judge. This evidence is examined by the judge in order to determine guilt in the criminal proceedings. He takes into consideration the law of the land, the facts presented, or the law put in the case for the purpose of determining the outcome.
If the defendant is found guilty, other facts are considered, such as: the nature of the crime; the defendant's criminal history; remorse or regret shown by the defendant; and the defendant's socio-economic and personal circumstances; inputs from the prosecutor and also the defense before handing down sentence. Imposition of punishment may be incarceration, probation, community service or suspended sentence. The defense or prosecution can make an appeal against the sentence or trial or both.

Practice: Commonwealth Place
After class on Thursday night, I went out for my usual night shoot, this time at Commonweath Place. I wanted to try out a 58mm diffusion filter with light sources, and a classmate showed me some photos a friend of his had taken at Commonwealth Place that looked really very cool. The diffusion filter spreads out highlights in an image; the stronger the highlight, the more spread out it becomes.
The effect can be seen in this pair of images – the image on the left is unfiltered, and the image on the right is taken through the diffusion filter. Each light source in the diffused image seems to "glow" – this might be a useful effect for my "Shedding Illumination" photos, to create a "halo" effect on some of the subjects. However, the diffused image is also less sharp than the non-diffused one, so I'll have to be careful using it or I'll just end up with fuzzy pictures.

Week one ...Let it begin!
Today you all had an opportunity to learn a little bit about how your class operates. You also had a chance to meet each other. Each day I'll post what happened in class as well the homework that is due. Sometimes I'll post extra credit opportunities as well. So, if you are ever absent, always check this spot so you kind kind of get an idea of what you missed.
IB Biology - In addition to what every class must complete by Monday (below), on a separate sheet, please identify and explain where the independent variable, dependent variable, constants, and controls were in the experiment we did today. If you believe some of these were missing, say so and then explain why you think that.
Biology - See below
Honors Biology - See below
Tonight I need you to go to the website (scisavvy.weebly.com) make sure you understand everything found there. Once you've done this I want you to create a cover sheet should have:
1) Which "Biology" course you take on it,
2) Your full name,
3) Using four colors create at least four different images related to four different sections of our syllabus.
NOTE: The whole page should be full and should only have pictures related to the subjects we'll study this year so you must look at that syllabus on the website.
Next I need you to make a plan to get a durable 200 page (5 section) notebook like the example I showed in class. You'll need it by Monday.
Lastly, complete the safety contract/survey at the bottom of the Laboratory Safety page. 1) Look over the site, 2) Plan to get a notebook, 3) Create a cover page for your notebook, 4) Sign the online survey/safety contract .
IB Biology - Today you had a chance to collect information on how far we could jump. Tonight what I want you to do is to take the data and to make a graph that would best display the information and answer the question we started with, how far can a senior jump? How you do this is up to you and I will post all of you class data in a spread sheet at the end of the day. It will be found below. Yes, the data from both classes should be used. Oh, and don't forget that we need you to complete the work from Monday.
Biology - So today we did a project where you looked at a bunch of molecules and you needed to sort. You then asked some questions about what you want to know to answer this question better. Tonight you need to research the question you were assigned and come back with some answers. These answers should be on a new sheet, not the one you made in class. ALSO, be sure to describe if what we did today was "good science" or not? This goes on the bottom of today's notes. We set it up for you. Lastly, don't forget about all of the things listed under Monday. It's all due on Monday.
Honors Biology - Same as regular bio above
IB Biology - Today we took a look at the various graphs you came up with for the data you collected (as well as the other class). We then discussed issues with the graphs and how our experimental design affected the data. lastly we looked at a power point called "Ugly Graph" posted below and analyzed the graphs. Tonight I want you to go home and create a box and whisker plot of the two classes data. This site will help with the box and whisker plot: https://www.varsitytutors.com/hotmath/hotmath_help/topics/box-and-whisker-plots
Biology - Today we looked at the work you completed last night and then added corrections and then reflected in small groups. Next we looked at the nature of science using a handout (posted below), and then lastly we answered those lingering questions that you didn't have answers to. Tonight, based off of what we discussed in class using the handout, you should create a "Tweet" (Using 140 characters or less) on what good science is. This will be on the bottom of the 4 person reflection you completed today.
Honors Biology - See above in biology
IB Biology - Now that we have our books we need to start covering some content, but not until we finish this statistical analysis starter. Today we learned how to construct a simple box and whisker plot. Tonight I would like you to create a box and whisker plot using a hand drawn method. Sort the numbers using the spread sheet I provided, but create the box and whisker by hand. This site will help with the box and whisker plot if your notes aren't helping: https://www.varsitytutors.com/hotmath/hotmath_help/topics/box-and-whisker-plots
Biology - Today we looked at some chemical reactions and listed all sorts of chemical information to learn more about those macromolecules we have been looking at. Tonight, on a separate piece of paper, I would like you to create a statement that describes the relationship between the terms: Organic, Atom, Bond, and Molecule. This statement is probably only about 2+ sentences long.
Honors Biology - See above in biology, but instead of writing a statement about the terms; Organic, atom, bond, and molecule, I want your writing to include the connection with exothermic and endothermic reactions.
Please also don't forget to complete the class safety contract, and get a notebook and make a cover by Monday!!! The safety contract is now working. :)

The 17th annual Coats for Kids campaign, organized by the Greater Vancouver Home Builders= Association (GVHBA), resulted in the collection of more than 3,000 winter coats, sweaters, scarves and mitts for needy children, teens and adults. Toys were also donated.
More than 38 GVHBA-member companies as well as several schools and sports teams allowed their premises to be used as drop-off locations in 14 municipalities from Nov. 19 to Dec. 7. Their involvement will help to ensure a brighter B and warmer B holiday season for many families in this region.
The clothing and toys will be distributed by the Lower Mainland Christmas Bureau and various agencies throughout the Greater Vancouver Area. Many of the adult-sized coats will be distributed through agencies which specifically assist homeless adults.
The response to Coats for Kids was phenomenal. We applaud our participating members and the men, women and children throughout the Lower Mainland who contributed good-quality winter apparel, including some brand new items. The Christmas spirit was alive in the hearts of those generous people,@ said GVHBA Chief Executive Officer Bob de Wit.

How does an Evaporative Cooling system work?
Fresh air from outside is drawn into the home through the cooler located on the roof. The cooler has a water supply that wets four pads, the air is then drawn through resulting in air being cooled through the process of evaporation. As an example if you wet your finger and then blow on it you will feel the cooling effect of evaporative cooling.
This cooling system is ideal for dryer climates.
Does an evaporative cooling system use much water?
The amount of water used is in direct relation to the outdoor humidity level. If it is a hot dry day the unit will use more water through evaporation. The water usage is minimal and you will not notice the impact of using an evaporative system during Melbourne's summer period.
How much electricity does an evaporative cooler use?
The use of electricity is very low. It's needed to drive a fan and a small water pump.
Can an evaporative cooling system be zoned?
There is no zoning option on the evaporative cooler. However a simple method that is very effective is to control the air by slightly opening windows in the room you want the cool air. The evaporative system slightly pressurises the home therefore an open window immediately directs the air to that area.
What information should I have ready before I talk to my heating and cooling specialist?
In an ideal situation a house plan with accurate room dimensions we will need to provide an accurate quotation. In some cases this is not possible and a site visit is required to draw up a floor plan and take measurements.
Will an evaporative cooler keep my house cool throughout an extreme summer period?
It will cool your house on most days however when there is high humidity the evaporative system does not work as effectively.
A refrigerated system will provide cooling throughout extreme heat as it is not impacted by humidity levels.
How does a refrigerated air conditioner work?
This is the most effective form of cooling. The process is to transfer heat. Heat is absorbed into a refrigerant gas (what?? Chamber??) and dispersed in another area. In summer the heat in your home is collected by the refrigerant in the indoor fan coil unit and dispersed outside through the condenser unit. It works on the same basic principle as your refrigerator.
In winter a reverse cycle system heats instead of cools your home.
Can I have the windows and doors open with a refrigerated cooling system?
For refrigerated cooling system this is not recommended, however if you have an evaporative cooler installed then it is a requirement to have the windows and or doors open for operation.
What size air conditioning cooling system do I need?
Our heating and cooling specialists do an on-site visit and calculate the heat load on your home. We are then better placed to recommend the right heating and cooling system to suit your home.
What is a split system?
A split system is a unit that can heat or cool a room/area but not the whole house. They are generally wall mounted.
Are there ways to reduce my energy consumption while running the unit?
Yes. Home insulation, window coverings, open doors and windows as well as the set point all affect the running costs considerably. For example, every 1 degree temperature difference should result in approximately a 6 percent increase in running costs.
How does gas ducted heating compare to other central heating systems?
Gas heating can be cheaper to run in Melbourne however Heat Pump technology and sensible zoning now means reverse cycle systems can be as cheap or cheaper to run.
Can I operate my ducted heating and cooler from the one controller?
Generally yes however it depends on the brand and number of units. There are systems that require two controllers.
Where is the gas heater installed?
It depends on whether your house has been built on a slab or on stumps. Heaters can either be installed in the ceiling space, under the floor or external to the house with only the ducts running underneath the property.
Is Gas ducted heating suitable for people with allergies?
Yes you may require additional filtration to assist in managing dust etc but generally they will be suitable.

Are injections better than pills for erectile dysfunction?
Last reviewed: 19 Feb 2019
Order erectile dysfunction treatment
No results found.
Please check your spelling or try another treatment name.
Are you looking to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), but would prefer something other than tablets like Viagra? Caverject is an injectable medicine that can reliably produce erections in 5 to 15 minutes without the need to take tablets.
Find out how Caverject works, where to get it, the risks, and how it compares to other options for treating ED.
How does Caverject compare to medications like Viagra?
Viagra is a medicine taken by mouth from a family of drugs known as PDE-5 inhibitors. The main difference between PDE-5 inhibitors and Caverject is that Caverject is normally only prescribed when other treatments have failed to work, or aren't appropriate.
Caverject and PDE-5 inhibitors both work by increasing blood flow to the penis, but due to the direct way in which Caverject is used, there are some key differences:
How long does Caverject take to work?
5-15 minutes
How long does it last?
Depending on the dose, an erection will usually less than an hour.
Do I need to be sexually stimulated for it to work?
How often can you use it?
Daily, but not more than three times per week.
What if I have other conditions?
Caverject cannot be used in certain conditions affecting the blood, or if you have abnormalities of the penis.
How effective is it?
Around 94% of men report successful sexual activity after use.
Is it convenient?
The injections can be time-consuming or painful.
Caverject isn't the first choice – but, if you have tried PDE-5 inhibitors in the past and have not been satisfied with the results, Caverject may be a suitable alternative. Compared to PDE-5 inhibitors, Caverject can work faster and does not rely on the need to be sexually stimulated to have an erection.
Fewer whole-body effects – as the medication in Caverject is released directly into the penis, the chances of experiencing side-effects in other parts of your body is reduced. You may want to consider using Caverject as an alternative to PDE-5 inhibitors if you have experienced side-effects such as:
- Headaches
- Flushing
- Indigestion
- Nasal congestion
- Dizziness
- Abnormal vision
- Back pain
- Muscle pain
You may have been told that PDE-5 inhibitors are not suitable for you based on a medical condition you have. Depending on your situation, Caverject may be an alternative that could be safe to use.
How does Caverject help ED?
The active ingredient in Caverject is alprostadil; it is very similar to a natural hormone in your body that controls the blood vessels. For people with ED, it can make it easier to have an erection by widening the blood vessels and increasing blood flow to the penis, usually within five to fifteen minutes after use. Around 94% of men report successful sexual activity after using Caverject.
The medicine comes in two parts: a powder and a liquid solution. The powder is dissolved in the liquid and injected directly into the penis. You will be told what dose is right for you by a doctor and recommended to use either vials with syringes, or a dual chamber injection device. Detailed instructions how to do this are included in the information leaflet in the packaging.
If you have the vial and syringe pack, you will need to:
Squirt the liquid from the syringe into the vial with the powder and mix the two together
Draw the mixture back into the syringe and adjust the plunger until the correct dose is left in the syringe
If you have the dual chamber device, you will need to:
Attach the needle to the tip of the device and twist the plunger to mix the powder from one chamber with the liquid in the other
Select the dose by pushing the plunger all the way down and twisting it until the correct dose is displayed in the window
When you are ready to use the medicine:
Gently squeeze the penis with your fingers underneath and the thumb on top to push out the side
Insert the needle into the side of the penis as shown in the information leaflet, avoiding any obvious veins
Release the medication by pressing down on the plunger
Pull the needle out and massage the penis to spread the medicine around
Where can you buy Caverject?
Caverject is a prescription-only medicine, but it is not generally available on the NHS. To buy it, you will need a private prescription. This can be done by visiting a doctor in person, or by using an online doctor service.
You can buy Caverject:
- From a pharmacy with a prescription from:
- Your local GP
- A specialist, such as a urologist
- A private consultation
- Online with a prescription from:
- Your local GP
- A private consultant
- For about £10-30
- To pick up the same day or with next-day delivery
Depending on the dose that you need, you can expect to pay between £10 and £30 per vial or device. Also, you may have to pay a fee to see a doctor face-to-face for either a private consultation or for writing a private prescription.
To book a face-to-face consultation, you'll need to get in touch with your doctor and arrange an appointment. The doctor will ask you questions about ED as well as your general health and other conditions you have or medicines that you are taking. If they're happy for you to use the medicine, they will write you a prescription that you'll need to take to a pharmacy. The pharmacist will check the prescription and order the medicine for you, to pick up the same day or a little while later.
Are there any risks to using Caverject?
Risks to using Caverject include:
- Poor injection technique
- Pain
- Scarring
- Bruising
- Colour change
- Rash
- Penile abnormalities, like Peyronie's disease (scar tissue causing the penis to be bent when erect, not straight) or fibrosis
- Erections lasting too long or when not wanted (priapism)
If you're considering using Caverject, bear in mind that using the syringe or injection device can be quite difficult – this is especially if you have problems with your hands or do not like needles. More people decide to stop using Caverject because of the technique than because of poor results. To make the process easier, it might be worth both you and your partner learning how to prepare and give the injection.
The most common side-effect of Caverject is pain in the penis after the injection – about 30% of people experience pain in their penis at least once after using Caverject. However, it is described as mild or moderate pain in most cases, and only three out of every 100 people stop using the medicine because of the pain.
There is also a risk of scarring, bruising, colour changes or rashes to the skin of the penis following an injection. It is important to follow the instructions carefully to reduce the chances of this occurring.
Long-term use – using Caverject long-term is generally safe, but there is a small risk that over time you could develop abnormalities in your penis that may mean you have to stop using it. Peyronie's disease or penile fibrosis are conditions where scar tissue in the penis can cause pain or bends in the penis. Caverject should not be used if you develop a problem like this.
Priapism – a risk shared by most medicines used to treat ED is having an unwanted erection that lasts a long time. With Caverject, 4% of people have reported having an erection that lasts for four to six hours. In most cases, the erection will go away by itself with less than 1% of people experiencing an erection that has lasted longer than six hours. This is an emergency and medical help should be sought immediately if this happens. The duration of the erection depends on the dose so your doctor will start you on a low dose to try to avoid this problem.
What are the alternatives to Caverject?
The main alternatives and first choice medications for erectile dysfunction are PDE-5 inhibitors:
- Viagra (sildenafil) – was the first PDE-5 inhibitor on the market. Its effects start 30 to 60 minutes after taking the tablet but can be less effective if taken after a large meal. The effects can last for up to twelve hours with 60 to 80% of people experiencing improved erections during that time. Headache and flushing are the most common side-effects. You can also get generic Sildenafil and now Viagra Connect over the counter.
- Cialis (tadalafil) – may start to work slightly faster than Viagra, after about 30 minutes. The effects tend to last longer than Viagra too, up to 36 hours, and aren't affected by the food you eat. 70 to 80% of people taking Cialis experienced improved erections. Headache and indigestion are the most common side-effects. You can also get generic Tadalafil and Cialis Daily.
- Levitra (vardenafil) – is a slightly newer PDE-5 inhibitor than Viagra or Cialis. It works after around 30 minutes, but the tablet form can be affected by heavy meals. An orodispersable tablet version that dissolves on the tongue is available that isn't affected by eating, and is good for people that find it hard to swallow tablets. 70 to 80% of people experienced improved erections. Headache, flushing and nasal congestion are the most common side-effects.
- Spedra (avanafil) – is one of the newest PDE-5 inhibitors. It can more precisely target the penis when it is swallowed so there should be fewer side effects in other parts of the body. 60 to 70% of people taking Spedra have been able to have sex within 15 minutes of taking the medicine. Headache is less common than with the other PDE-5 inhibitors, but it is still the most common side-effect of this medicine.
There are some other treatment option available too:
- Vacuum erection devices (penis pumps) – can be a suitable alternative for many people, especially those that cannot take medication for health reasons. The device is like a pump; it uses suction to keep blood in the penis and trigger an erection. While it can be very effective at producing an erection, some people have reported lower levels of satisfaction due to pain, numbness or not being able to ejaculate.
- Penile prosthesis – a device which is implanted into the penis. This method offers a permanent solution to ED without needing the continuous use of medicine. The device is an inflatable implant which can be manually switched on to produce an erection and then switched off again. You may want to consider an implant if all other methods haven't worked for you. 90 to 100% of people are satisfied with the result.
- Lifestyle changes – if you are overweight then losing weight is known to help with ED. It can help to quit smoking or doing recreational drugs. If you drink alcohol, try cutting back to see if this helps. Stress is linked with ED, so changes to your lifestyle to bring your stress levels down may help. Regular exercise can help reduce stress, help with weight loss, and reduce ED
- Controlling your other health conditions – ED is sometimes a symptom of another condition or a side-effect of a medicine. If you have a condition like diabetes, depression, high blood pressure or thyroid problems, talk to your doctor about your situation. By working together to control the condition, you may find that ED will improve. If you suspect that one of your medicines is causing the ED, your doctor may be able to switch it for something else.
- Psychosexual counselling – can help with erectile dysfunction and psychological therapy may be especially helpful if you have anxiety or depression, and this is something you can do alone or with your partner. Some people report getting help from acupuncture therapy, but there is not much evidence that this works.
- Herbal remedies – these are not generally considered to be very effective. If you are thinking about using herbal medicine, make sure to buy one with a Traditional Herbal Registration number and speak to your doctor or pharmacist first.

If piles of clothes keep toppling over you every time you open your closet, perhaps it's time you gave it a little makeover and got rid of all the clothes you don't need. While it might be difficult to say goodbye to some of your favourite pieces, let's face it, if they're completely worn-out, they should no longer have a place in your closet. Here are several tips to help you sort out your clothes and store away seasonal clothes and pieces you don't currently need. Not only will you have more space in your closet, but you'll also create a clean and structured look.
Start by decluttering
Before storing away your clothes in boxes and bags, you should face the most difficult task of them all – decluttering. This will be a challenge because you might have to part ways with some of your all-time favorites. However, you need to power through this process and get rid of all the pieces that you haven't worn for some time now, because, let's face it, you won't start any time soon. Furthermore, if you have some clothes that are worn-out beyond repair, they shouldn't take up your closet space. The best approach is to sort-out your clothes into different piles, for example, to keep, to donate and to throw away. You can also separate your seasonal clothes that you'll later store away.
Repurpose your storage units
Instead of letting your old bookshelves, trunks, and armoires collect dust in the attic, you should repurpose and introduce them as additional storage units. Not only will you have more space to store away your seasonal clothes, but you'll also introduce a sense of novelty to your room. You can use old trunks for the clothes you don't need at the moment and place them by your bed instead of nightstands. What was once an old bookshelf can now be transformed into a storage solution for your folded clothes, such as sweaters, pants, T-shirts, etc.
Maximise your closet space
If your closet has a lot of unused space, you should think of different solutions to maximize your closet storage. While additional shelves can help you maximise the top part of your closet where you can store seasonal clothes, you can introduce boxes and drawers for the bottom area. If there's plenty of space beneath your hanging rack, you can use it to store old purses, shoes and other pieces you don't currently need. Finally, if you have a lot of accessories that take up too much space in your drawers, you can add hooks to your closet doors, hang them and then use the drawers for your seasonal clothes. However, if you think you need something special, you can easily open for custom made wardrobes. For example, many Aussies usually go to their favorite stores and they often seek for wardrobes in Brisbane, which can offer them a chance to find wardrobes that suit all their needs.
Take advantage of the unused space
You probably have a lot of free space in your bedroom that can be used for storing the clothes you don't need. Take a look around and think of functional solutions that will help you increase your storage space without disrupting the overall décor. For example, you can introduce drawers under your bed where you can keep your seasonal clothes, old purses, and shoes. You can also install a clothes rod to your ceiling and use it for your everyday outfits while freeing up your closet space for pieces you don't currently need.
Label up
Storing away your clothes in plastic bags is a practical solution, but make sure to label them. A simple piece of paper with "winter clothes" written on it will make your life much easier when you need to find a particular piece. Instead of unpacking all the bags, you can just grab one you need and avoid dealing with piles of clothes.
Think outside the room
You shouldn't be constrained by your bedroom walls when it comes to storing clothes. If you don't have enough storage space in your bedroom, you can use storage units in other rooms. Your living room sofa with a hidden compartment is a perfect place for storing your seasonal clothes. However, to avoid cluttering your home, you can always rent a temporary storage unit for the clothes and other items you don't need. Make sure to find a reliable company in order to ensure the safety of your belongings.
By storing away your old and seasonal clothes, you'll free a lot of space in your closet and give it a structured and organized look.
Happy Storing!

Last week, the Mayor and Council unanimously passed an amendment to Peachtree City's Leash Law, eliminating the option of "voice command" for animals off the owners' private property. Animals on Peachtree City's streets, paths, and in parks (with the exception of the fenced area of the Dog Park) must now be leashed. This ordinance is in effect NOW – it went into effect upon its adoption on September 16, 2010. Council has also directed staff to develop rules and signage for Drake Field to make the area a "pet-friendly" zone that allows voice command. This will allow those with pets who obey voice commands to access Lake Peachtree.

You may be one of the many California residents who purchased a home in order to make it your own. You can paint the walls, decorate any way you like and otherwise put your personal touch on it. You may want to put up a fence for your pets, paint the exterior of your home or finally have a place to park your RV or boat.
Wait, back up for a minute. Did you read the covenants, conditions and restrictions, commonly referred to as CC&Rs, for your neighborhood when you bought the house? Do you pay dues to a homeowners' association? If you live in a gated community or closed subdivision, you could encounter difficulties in making certain changes to the exterior of your home. You may even find restrictions regarding the use of your home such as having a home-based business.
What are CC&Rs?
CC&Rs include certain rules between you, your neighbors and the homeowners' association that restrict you from doing certain things to your property. When you found and decided to purchase your home, you probably thought you found a safe, beautiful and well-maintained neighborhood. You may not have realized that this is due to the CC&Rs of the community.
These rules and regulations often include issues such as the architectural designs of the homes in the community, fence heights and other restrictions that tend to keep the community looking uniform. Common rules include those regarding lawn care, parking vehicles and even putting up a basketball hoop.
Why didn't I know about this?
Unfortunately, obtaining the CC&Rs often ends up as an afterthought. In many cases, copies of them only reach you at or near the closing. At this point, your investment in purchasing the home may keep you from paying close attention to any covenants, conditions and restrictions placed on you when it comes to your (about to be) new home.
Once you become aware of them, read them carefully. If you need help interpreting them, you could seek the advice and assistance of an attorney. Unfortunately, it may be too late to back out of the purchase now if you disagree with the CC&Rs, but it may be possible to negotiate with your HOA to determine whether amending or revoking a certain provision could occur.
If you are already involved in a dispute with your HOA over a particular covenant, condition or restriction, you may benefit from discussing the matter with an attorney. It would behoove you to enlist the aid of an attorney who has spent years (or decades) handling these matters for both homeowners and HOAs. He or she would understand the particulars of the law regarding CC&Rs, could advise you of your legal rights and advocate for you with the HOA or even in court, if it comes to that.

I was on assignment and met Paul Motian at Birdland on March 15, 2006, the eve of my birthday. Later, we discussed the proximity of our birthdays and the Pisces/Aries thing: Paul's birthday was coming up March 25.
Paul Motian, I'd read, could be cantankerous and dismissive of interviewers—I had prepared for this the only way I knew how: by repeated listening to the nuances in his phrasing, abundant in recordings with, say, Bill Evans and Bobo Stenson. I kept hammering away on matters of his drumming vocabulary, his gentle touch, and his use of sparkling timbres until his icy demeanor melted like the atypically heavy snow that had fallen outside. Our interview was published in the German magazine Drums and Percussion.
Motian drew me to Birdland next night like a magnet, his second night of a short run with pianist Bobo Stenson. Imagine it, spending my birthday with my wife and Paul Motian. At Birdland. How cool is that? The interview excerpt below, and the photos, are for your eyes only. They have never seen print in Germany or elsewhere, although a similar shot (the view under the grand piano lid) made it to the pages of MD and D & C. In the absence of any info to draft a proper obit, I offer the following in good faith and tribute to Paul Motian.
As Jon Christensen had remarked to me many times previous, Paul could strike his ride cymbal but once and succeed in stating the time indelibly. He worked with pulses, not drum beats, and with spaces, which he was apt to fill with timbres no one else detected and certainly no one would have expected.
That night pre-gig at Birdland, Paul displayed a devious sort of pride when showing me his "stick bag". He'd beaten the system by hustling a couple of Virgin Airline plastic carriers and pressing them into service as stick bags. Functional and inexpensive. And waterproof!
FF to a my post regarding the mantra "I play for the song". At the last minute, just before publishing that article, I felt an overwhelming need to include a photo of Paul Motian; indeed, I placed it near the top of the piece. That was two nights ago. And just last night, hours ago, it came to me again in the dark, this overwhelming presence. Paul Motian…he offered me the opportunity to keep in touch and I didn't do so. I should have because I will never see Paul Motian again. And the phone rang with the bad news this morning.
One of the last things Paul told me, witness my Mini Disk transcript:
"In my neighborhood, there was a kid my age who asked me over to his house. I could hear some drums being played and there were six or seven kids on the stoop checking it out. His brother was playing drums and I asked him to give me lessons. He said, 'The first thing we do is play a roll', and he showed me the way to hold the right stick and left stick; and then showed me 2 on each hand: mama dada mama dada. Then he played a record, Gene Krupa playing 'Sing, Sing, Sing'. Eventually I got a real teacher, Emilio Rugasta, and we went through the rudiments and books.
But even today my reading is terrible. I don't want to see the music. At this point in my life, what am I going to read music for? I'm using these man: the ears on each side of my head!"
Post Script in Dressing Room
PM: I've done fifteen interviews in the last month… and I've given you more time than any of them
TBW: Hours, yeah. Why did you go the distance with me?
PM: Because you're an inquisitive pain in the ass!
Paul, bluntness aside, was a master of the unspoken word and I am grateful I got to spend two nights with him at Birdland, listening to him allude to army days, to Bill Evans, to the necessity of refreshing one's musical perspectives, all the while approaching the drumset with respect, sensitivity, and dynamics, lest it become routine. And hearing the ways and rationales for him playing that old Paiste and Zildjian…. Tbw.

Mississippi State University's Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems Extension Office took home a top honor from the University Economic Development Association's annual meeting in Reno, Nev., last month.
Based in Canton, CAVS Extension was the winner of the 2010 Award of Excellence in Business Assistance and Entrepreneurship for its work with the Navistar plant in West Point.
"UEDA's Awards of Excellence winners earned this prestigious recognition through their superior performance," said Steve Holland, the association's outgoing president and director of the Montana Manufacturing Extension Center at Montana State University. "Our country is facing serious economic issues, and our colleges and universities are well suited to serve as thought leaders and to help find solutions."
The winning project, officially titled "The Role of MSU's CAVS Extension in Supporting Rapid Commercialization at Navistar Defense's Plant in West Point, MS," is an example of Mississippi State's commitment to service, said Clay Walden, director of CAVS Extension and a research professor at the land-grant institution.
"CAVS Extension and the university as a whole are actively engaged in the lives of Mississippians," he said. "Our work with Navistar illustrates the assistance we provide and the partnerships we develop with employers in the state."
In West Point, CAVS Extension engineers led by Glenn Dennis designed and implemented the manufacturing system, including the use of advanced modeling and simulation techniques, to help Navistar enhance production of the company's mine-resistant armored protection vehicles, commonly called MRAPs, for the U.S. Department of Defense.
"All of us are very proud of the excellent work being done by the CAVS Extension team," said David Shaw, Mississippi State's vice president for research and economic development. "Working to meet the needs of business and industry is a clearly-defined priority of the university. Our researchers and resources have vital roles to play as the state's economy grows and diversifies."
In addition to Walden and Dennis, Research and Technology Corporation Director Marc McGee and Associate Vice President for Economic Development Melvin Ray represented Mississippi State at UEDA's Higher Education Institutions as Catalysts for Economic Development summit.

'Medicare for all' will mean misery for most
The Affordable Care Act is imploding, and the latest replacement failed. So Bernie Sanders and a few of his U.S. Senate colleagues have suggested that "Medicare for all" is the solution.
Is there any substance to the Sanders single-payer model?
I decided to review his website to determine the salient features, positions and claims he makes about the benefits of a single-payer system and analyze the merits of such. His first claim is: "That health care must be recognized as a right and not a privilege."
Let's compare the right of health care with gun rights. Let's look at the "rights" we have in the Constitution. The Bill of Rights has quite a list. The Bill of Rights exists to protect the people from the government, which might try to take away such rights. Thomas Jefferson said it best when he said, "When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny."
Nowhere in the Constitution does it suggest that the federal government must pay for you to enjoy such a right. As I've written before, imagine that I wanted to purchase a revolver that costs $1,200. I reach into my pockets and I am shy by $1,100. Should I go to Congress and demand that it pay for the revolver?
As with gun ownership, affordability is a different concept from the right itself. Sanders has confused the "right" with "entitlement" of payment to enjoy such a right.
Sanders then suggests that "the only long-term solution to America's health care crisis is a single-payer national health care program."
Really? True believers in socialism have a view that only the government can solve problems of the citizens (and in Sanders' case, even noncitizens) they govern. Thus, if you like the efficiency of the U.S. Postal Service, the compassion of the IRS and the prices paid by the Pentagon, you're going to love government-controlled health care.
Let's consider the impact of a single-payer system. If we were to award only one private insurance company to control all insurance in the United States, wouldn't that create a monopoly or at least a monopsony? (a market in which there is only one buyer.)
The difference between a monopoly or monopsony is the former is a single seller and the latter is a single purchaser. Regardless, concentration is funneled into one private company. I suspect that most Americans would be quite vocal against granting such colossal market power to one private company.
So why is it different when the single source of power is the federal government?
Whether we consolidate power to a single private firm or a single government agency, it is still a consolidation of power and thus zero competition is involved. Granted, an iron-fisted monopoly could certainly command cheaper prices from doctors, hospitals and pharmaceutical companies. However, how many doctors, hospitals and pharmaceutical companies will agree to see such patients? And how long can those providers that do agree offer a plethora of services before they go broke with such a reduction of price controls and mandates?
Consider Medicaid and the current ACA dilemma. There is a reason why so many insurance companies are not offering services under the ACA. They are tired of losing money. Likewise, physicians accepting Medicaid have a difficult time making money, given the low reimbursement rates. So many doctors do not accept Medicaid.
Another element of the Sanders plan is to "eliminate waste." This claim is difficult to take seriously, given that Medicare, through fraud and abuse, wastes $60 billion a year, according to news reports. Expanding a program that cannot control fraud and abuse is likely to increase waste, not eliminate it. If Sanders is so interested in reducing waste, why doesn't he propose a plan to accomplish this now, or for that matter, 10 years ago?
He has no plan or clue how to accomplish such.
Sanders suggests that a typical family would save $5,000 per year in premium costs. That is an astonishing claim given that President Barack Obama made a similar claim about the ACA. Obama suggested a savings of $2,500 per family.
How well did that work out? It didn't. Health care premiums increased and they continue to increase, which is why more and more Americans are opting to pay the penalty, to the tune of $31 billion in the aggregate, in 2016. Paying a penalty is evidence that millions of Americans do not have insurance under Obamacare, yet for some reason, we never hear about the millions of Americans who have been effectively shut out from buying health insurance due to the high cost and low availability of health plans and doctors.
Welcome to government-run health care.
The inherent challenge with socialized health care — or any product, for that matter — is that it creates major disruptions in the private sector, reduces innovation, reduces access, creates waiting lines and seldom, if ever, accomplishes the stated objective. The evidence is all around us. Venezuela is a great example of socialism gone amok.
Let's take a look at cancer survival rates in the United States vs. England. The U.S. usually ranks first in the survival rate of cancer. Prostate cancer, as an example, has a 97.2 percent chance of the five-year survival rate in the U.S. compared to England, where it is about 83 percent.
Part of the difference is due to the waiting lines that socialistic health care inevitability creates. What is the advantage of having free care if you can't access it when you need it?
The cost of health care is one issue. However, quick access to quality providers is more important, particularly if you desire early detection, treatment and great outcomes. One of the impacts of socialism is that it always creates scarcity, reduces competition, stifles innovation and creates waiting lines.
I certainly understand that when people think their health care will be cheaper if it is government-run, this can be an appealing proposition. The reality throughout the world, however, tells a very different story in those single-payer systems.
Do you still want Medicare for all?

In 1987, Applause created a set of 3 wooden "Action Picture Frames". Each frame featured a "spinning" character cut-out on one side and space for a picture on the other side. The three characters offered were Big Bird, Cookie Monster, and Grover in a plane.
They have also released other small picture frames in various materials.
