Met-Ed paid one of its customers to withdraw a complaint filed with state regulators after Hurricane Sandy.
Sound like a pay-off? Well, not exactly.
There are two types of complaints you can file: an informal complaint and a formal complaint.
When an informal complaint is filed through the Bureau of Consumer Services, an investigator works to facilitate discussion between the parties to resolve it, according to the PUC.
The formal complaint process is different because it involves a legal proceeding before a commission administrative law judge, who would hold a hearing in Harrisburg to gather evidence and then render a decision. This means that you and the utility must present facts on issues raised in your complaint.
Individuals or companies may file formal complaints. Individuals do not need a lawyer; however, companies must be represented by an attorney. The five PUC commissioners may then rule on the decisions at a public meeting.
A formal complaint form can be downloaded from the PUC's website or with this story at poconorecord.com. The formal complaint form is six pages of questions that require you detail the circumstances surrounding your complaint. It also asks you to explain what you want the PUC to order the utility to do.
However, any order will not include compensation, since the PUC cannot direct that damages be awarded to a consumer.
Complaints can be filed against any publicly regulated utility, including electric, gas, water, steam heat, waste water and sewer services, telephone and telecommunications and certain classes of motor carriers.
All formal complaints go through the process outlined, regardless of the damage or loss the consumer claims.
The PUC received 1,918,000 formal complaints in 2012. About 75 percent of them were closed, either because they were fully adjudicated, settled between the utility and customer or withdrawn. The balance are still ongoing cases.
The Public Utility Commission, the state agency that regulates the power industry and other utilities, received 14 formal complaints statewide over Met-Ed's performance during Hurricane Sandy, according to PUC spokesman Jennifer Kocher.
Another 38 informal complaints were filed after the storm, according to Met-Ed spokesman Scott Surgeoner. Some local customers were without power for 10 days.
Formal complaints entitle consumers to an administrative judicial process with the PUC. But the agency can only issue fines or directives against the utility. If a customer wants compensation, it must negotiate with the utility. And statistics show that doesn't happen very often.
Of course, a customer can always sue its power provider.
The PUC doesn't have the authority to award damages, according to Kocher, but it can fine the utility or order corrective actions, like fixes to lines.
Yet despite the 14 formal complaints, Met-Ed only entered into settlement talks with three of its customers. One resulted in a payment of $300 to withdraw the complaint, and one was resolved with an explanation that satisfied the customer, Surgeoner said. Both settlements were in Monroe County. The third is still in settlement talks.
A complaint can also be closed if the complainant fails to respond to subsequent PUC correspondence.
"We will look at a customer's complaints. We will work with our customers. We want happy customers. If we can come to a resolution that's acceptable to them and the company, all parties are better off," Surgeoner said.
Before it decides how to proceed, Met-Ed first determines its role in the complaint and whether it was negligent in the outage.
"Any time we can work with a customer and address their concerns, it just makes things better for both us and the customer," Surgeoner said.
There's certainly a good reason for the parties to settle. The process can be draining.
"We see settlements quite frequently in consumer complaints and we encourage them," Kocher said.
PPL hasn't made any payments to customers, according to spokesman Michael Wood. The company received 15 formal complaints from customers after Hurricane Sandy in Pennsylvania, according to Kocher. All but three have been closed, Wood said.
"Generally we would only settle if there was something we did wrong — if a customer's outage outlasted many others, for a particular reason."
PPL had a number of informal complaints to the PUC about extended outages, spoiled food seeking reimbursement.
"In most cases, we contacted the customer to personally explain our policies with regard to storms, reviewed our customer outreach during Sandy," Wood said.
After Sandy, Middle Smithfield Township, which suffered heavy storm damage and extended outages, encouraged residents to file formal complaints with the PUC, said Middle Smithfield Township Supervisor Annette Atkinson.
"It turns out Met-Ed is purchasing complaints," Atkinson said. "They're calling it settlements. Normally if you have an issue and it's settled, the complaint still remains on the record. But what Met-Ed was doing is paying people for withdrawing their complaint as if it never happened."
That's not exactly correct.
The PUC still uses those complaints to evaluate utility responses and formulate action plans if necessary.
"The consumer proceedings or withdrawals do not in any way affect our ongoing review of the storm response," Kocher said.
The PUC hasn't completed its report on the utilities' responses to Sandy.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Wanting a program that looked like it was bordered in gold, I called WPD and a staffer went through all the designs and sent me many samples to choose from. I ended up selecting a color that was not on the custom color card, but was used in one of their designs. It come out exactly how I wanted it to. Design wise, a staffer took the time to take this design and give me other design choices- one of which I loved. I made numerous changes along the way and he responded immediately. Couldn't have had a better experience."
"We love these programs! They are absolutely beautiful! I would suggest you go with the pearl paper. It's what make the entire design come together."
"I took advantage of having a designer review the card for free for anything I didn't catch. However after getting the program in the mail I noticed a word was spelled wrong. I don't believe the designer review is nothing more than clicking that option to feel assured."
"These ceremony programs are beautifully elegant; just the way I imagined and wanted them. The designer was so patient in fixing all of my wishes and the finished product is PERFECT! I'm so happy! I will definitely use and recommend Wedding Paper Divas in the future!"
"I ordered this program along with the Rustic Wreaths menu, place card and thank you note, all in the color Almond. Since I ordered the other ones as plain signature matte, I thought I'd try this one with the Pearl White Shimmer. It's absolutely gorgeous! It adds something special to this design, just lovely. I'm going to order this suite for my wedding day, and in all pearl shimmer. The paper quality is nice and thick and the design is perfect for our day.. rustic and to me feels a little bit French. Very happy with this product :)"

Faces & Voices of Recovery is organizing recovery and treatment advocates to ask their U.S. Representatives in Congress to join an addiction caucus focused on substance use disorders treatment and recovery, according to a Feb. 7 e-newsletter and action alert.
Founded in 2004, the Congressional Addiction, Treatment and Recovery Caucus is designed to educate members of Congress about addiction, recovery, and related public policy issues.
The bi-partisan caucus helps members of the House of Representatives and their staffs work to expand access to care and end what Faces & Voices called "discriminatory policies."
In the new Congress, the caucus will be co-chaired by Congressman John Sullivan (R-Okla.) and Congressman Tim Ryan (D-Ohio). Congresswoman Mary Bono Mack (R-Calif.) and Congressman Paul Tonko (D-N.Y.) will serve as vice-chairs, according to a Jan. 24 press release (PDF).
"I hope that the efforts of this caucus will play a significant role in all aspects of the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation process," Ryan said.
This year, Faces & Voices of Recovery wants one-third of the members of the House of Representatives to join the caucus. Faces & Voices is calling on advocates to help them reach that goal.

A test of the fittest by Steve from Puyallup, Washington on 05/05/2014. Trim: 2014 Nissan LEAF SL, Owned 1 year.
Pros: I must agree its not the prettiest car on the planet, however driving it justifies my other car (2010 750i) and I penciled it out and driving the Leaf has actually made me 700.00 including the payment, based on fuel savings..... HMMMMM free car and when I need a little testostrone boost I drive the Beemer......
Cons: Looks, you really have to look to find some "sexy" in the body style. I asked the salesman when we were buying the car "how does a guy keep his ego from damage? His reply was "tint the windows" so he included it in the deal...... Ones gotta protect his manhood. Range if it were 200 miles ILO 100 I think more people would be interested...... We would likely drive it more, with more range
Overall review: I think its a great commuter car, my wife likes it, absolutely no maintenence, and we've had ours right at a year now, tough to beat a free vehicle to keep my baby in the garage during inclimate weather.. and save a little money while we're at it.....

Drowsy Driving Crashes: Prevalent and Preventable
November 8, 2010
National Sleep Foundation Releases Safety Guidelines for Drowsy Driving Prevention Week®
Today kicks off Drowsy Driving Prevention Week®, a National Sleep Foundation public awareness campaign to educate drivers about sleep safety. The AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety released a new study showing that the tragedy of drowsy driving is more pervasive than shown in previous estimates. Their study shows that drowsy driving involves about one in six deadly crashes; one in eight crashes resulting in occupant hospitalization, and one in fourteen crashes in which a vehicle was towed. These percentages are substantially higher than most previous estimates, suggesting that the contribution of drowsy driving to motor vehicle crashes, injuries, and deaths has not been fully appreciated.
"This should be a wake up call to our legislators and our elected representatives," says David Cloud, CEO of the National Sleep Foundation. "Driving while drowsy seriously affects our safety on the road. More action and education are needed to combat this problem."
According to the Foundation's 2009 Sleep in America poll, about one-third (28%) of Americans admitted that they have fallen asleep behind the wheel within the past year, and more than half (54%) said they have driven while drowsy. The AAA Foundation study shows that more than a quarter of surveyed adults admitted they drove despite being so tired that they had difficulty keeping their eyes open in the previous month.
"It is shocking that so many people admit that they frequently drive in an incapacitated state," says Cloud. "The good news is that fatigue related crashes are preventable. The bad news is that there is a knowledge and awareness gap about the danger of driving when you're too sleepy. Many people think they can will themselves to stay awake no matter how tired they are, but science shows us that simply isn't true."
Sleepiness can impair drivers by causing slower reaction times, vision impairment, lapses in judgment and delays in processing information. In fact, studies show that being awake for more than 20 hours results in an impairment equal to a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08%, the legal limit in all states. It is also possible to fall into a 3-4 second microsleep without realizing it.
"Drowsy driving is a major traffic safety problem that, unfortunately, is largely unrecognized," said AAA Foundation President and CEO Peter Kissinger. "We need to change the culture so that drivers recognize the dangers, appreciate the consequences and most importantly, stop driving while sleepy."
Feeling sleepy? Stop driving if you exhibit these warning signs.
The following warning signs indicate that it's time to stop driving and find a safe place to pull over and address your condition:
- Difficulty focusing, frequent blinking and/or heavy eyelids
- Difficulty keeping reveries or daydreams at bay
- Trouble keeping your head up
- Drifting from your lane, swerving, tailgating and/or hitting rumble strips
- Inability to clearly remember the last few miles driven
- Missing exits or traffic signs
- Yawning repeatedly
- Feeling restless, irritable, or aggressive.
Here's what you can do to prevent a fall-asleep crash:
- Get a good night's sleep before you hit the road. You'll want to be alert for the drive, so be sure to get adequate sleep (seven to nine hours) the night before you go.
- Don't be too rushed to arrive at your destination. Many drivers try to maximize the holiday weekend by driving at night or without stopping for breaks. It's better to allow the time to drive alert and arrive alive.
- Use the buddy system. Just as you should not swim alone, avoid driving alone for long distances. A buddy who remains awake for the journey can take a turn behind the wheel and help identify the warning signs of fatigue. Take a break every 100 miles or 2 hours. Do something to refresh yourself like getting a snack, switching drivers, or going for a run.
- Take a nap—find a safe place to take a 15 to 20-minute nap, if you think you might fall asleep. Be cautious about excessive drowsiness after waking up.
- Avoid alcohol and medications that cause drowsiness as a side-effect.
- Avoid driving at times when you would normally be asleep.
- Consume caffeine. The equivalent of two cups of coffee can increase alertness for several hours.

Never has the nation been more in need of leaders like Warren Rudman, the former New Hampshire senator who died on Monday night at age 82. A principled conservative who nonetheless understood that his own goals were often best served by compromise, Rudman's legacy ought to weigh heavily on congressional leaders as they seek to hammer out a deal to avoid the so-called "fiscal cliff."
In his two terms in the Senate, Rudman symbolized a familiar New England-style fiscal conservatism. But he understood that an uncompromising attitude would do nothing to bring down the deficits he abhorred. Instead, Rudman worked out legislation in the mid-'80s with fellow Republican Phil Gramm and Democrat Ernest Hollings to tame the deficit. Those efforts did not end deficit spending, but they forced Congress to grapple with budgetary restraint amid the profligacy of the Reagan years. Later, they helped to bring about the breakthrough budget act of 1990, a package of tax hikes and spending restraints that helped unleash the prosperity and balanced budgets of the '90s.

Returning a missed call from an unknown number might be tempting, but it could cost you.Officials are saying there is a new scam that is affecting cell phone users in East Texas and all across the country.When you hear a cell phone ring, do you get that urge to scramble to the phone, not to miss the call? Madison Payne used to be the same way, but now, she's more careful."Something as simple as a nudge or hitting the answer button when you don't mean to could initially cost you," she said.Her entire family has received calls from the same out-of country-number."It's not local, it's not Texas, it's not even the United States," she explained.The phone will ring once or twice, but upon answering the caller is gone."What they're trying to do is get the recipient to be curious about who might have called and then the recipient calls that number back," Mechele Mills, with The Better Business Bureau of Tyler, said.But, when you call that number back, the BBB says you'll be instantly charged a fee on your monthly statement."And what happens is they charge a $19.95 premium service fee plus the international call charges for as long as they're on the phone," Mill explained.It's called "The One Ring Scam" because scammers have programmed computers to send out thousands of calls to cell phones, ring once, then disconnect before you can answer. They are preying on the victim's curiosity.""Don't answer numbers that you don't know. It's not worth it," Payne said, "If they leave a message, it's important; if not, don't answer."As hard as that is, especially for those, like Madison, who are used to seeing different area codes on their screen."And if I get a call like that I think it has something to do with me, so yeah, I'm worried, for sure," Payne said.And if you don't know anyone in another country, don't call that number back, no matter how curious you may be.The Federal Communications Commission, or FCC, has received thousands of complaints about The One Ring Scam. The caller makes money through racking up a charge on your phone bill, then intercepting that money for themselves. If you get one of those calls, you are asked to report the problem to your local better business bureau and cell phone provider.Copyright 2014 KLTV. All rights reserved.

A win over the defending Super Bowl Champions will go a long way to build a team's collective confidence. Eric Wood and Marcell Dareus get game balls for work in the trenches, while old offense and new defense make the difference. It's tape time, with All-22.
Defense Dominates
The story of the day for the Bills is probably the five interceptions of Super Bowl MVP Joe Flacco. Mike Pettine's varied looks confused Flacco frequently, and put Bills players in positions to make plays. We'll take a look at both of Aaron Williams interceptions, and then focus on Kiko Alonso and Marcell Dareus in the run game. While Alonso had a pair of picks, I think the All-22 can sometimes be better used to show you things you may not get to see on regular broadcast TV. Without further ado...let's look at the D.
Aaron Williams is turning into a nice player. Williams, drafted as a corner was moved to safety by the Bills because it appeared that he couldn't hack it at CB. Now it looks like the Bills have a solid player at both positions, and Mike Pettine is getting an awful lot out of Williams when he's in dire need of play makers in the secondary.
On the first of Williams two interceptions, he lines up in what appears to be man coverage.
As Joe Flacco steps back with the football, he sees both Bills DBs in man coverage, and believes he has a throw to the sideline available.
But the trap is set. Williams is not going to follow his man, but rather immediately turn and drop back into a zone look. (I can't tell you if this is necessarily the plan or just a clairvoyant-caliber move from Williams but it's safe to bet it's the plan).
Williams after just a few strides turns around to sit down while passing his man off to Jim Leonard. His head is around before Flacco's arm is moving. He waits. As Flacco's target comes open, he's running right to Williams.
Williams, ready. Flacco, no clue.
The trap is sprung and the Bills get the turnover.
Williams' second interception is a great example of a blitz that's not, by the numbers, a blitz. Immediately after the play I gave Mike Pettine credit for sending a blitz at exactly the right time. Thing of it is...he only sent four rushers, but it likely felt like it was a jailbreak.
Jerry Hughes races from the middle of the line, around the right side, while Nickell Roby comes from wide left. The result is two defenders free-running at Flacco.
The LBs drop into coverage while Flacco is immediately pressured into making a throw. The DC dials up pressure, but Williams has to make a great play to make this happen. Flacco has his receiver singled up against Aaron Williams who was in press coverage.
Williams attempts a bit of a jam, but doesn't get much. He's in coverage by himself.
Williams stays with Torrey Smith into the endzone.
A perfect throw might win this matchup...
As we know, it wasn't a perfect throw. Credit the pressure, the player with the pick, and the man making the call. They lean on their coverage here, and in this case it's Williams that makes a great play.
Kookoo for Kiko
Kiko Alonso's two interceptions and Marcell Dareus' two sacks are the statistical highlights of their respective days. However, they led a Bills run defense to a shutdown performance, allowing 24 yards total to Baltimore. The longest run of the day was 7 yards, and it's in large part because of these two.
Watch Kiko's swim move to stop Ray Rice...
There are more plays to show with both Alonso and Dareus picking up the run nicely. Alonso on a few occasions danced back into a cutback lane with his eyes in the backfield. He's a heck of a player, and when you add in the ball-hawking that we've seen through four weeks, there's reason to be very excited about what he brings to the club.
Marcell Dareus has been a bit of a mystery for Bills fans. He plays a non-glamor position so maybe we just don't see how good he is week in and week out. Week 4's matchup with the Baltimore offensive line brought out his best. When over the center he was consistently overpowering lineman, and releasing to make tackles.
The big man looked plenty mobile in stuffing the run.
Traditional Offense
Running the football has been hit and miss for Nathaniel Hackett's offense through four weeks. The difference in the Baltimore game, was consistent use of I-formation, or other traditional sets. The read option was used, but not exclusively.
Right from the start the Bills show they're willing to go more traditional. On the first play of the game CJ Spiller picks up 10 yards.
If you watch this play carefully, EJ freezes the linebacker (Red Circle) by standing and bluffing a quick throw. That half-step the LB doesn't get allows Spiller to find some room into the second level.
Fullback Frank Summers has a clean shot at the LB in the hole, and wipes him out...While Kraig Urbik is able to get to the Red Circle, and free Spiller up for a nice gain. Traditional run formation, and great success right from the start.
On Fred Jackson's TD run, Eric Wood clears the way.
It's another run out of the I-formation where Frank Summers leads the way. Wood chips the nose tackle, and then moves on to find a linebacker.
He finds Daryl Smith, and might as well put the Ravens LB on a dolly, because he rides him right out of the play.
Jackson makes his cut on the safety, and Wood just keeps going.
Arms up. Touchdown.
The success in the run game set up more playaction as well. Leading late in the game, OC Nathaniel Hackett dials up a deep ball that very well could have been the nail in Baltimore's coffin. Here's a look at the vine.
Notice that OLB Courtney Upshaw goes all in on the handoff to Jackson. Manuel keeps the ball, slides in the pocket and sets to deliver the deep ball to Robert Woods. Woods has again slipped behind coverage and is a sure thing for a deep touchdown. I chose the VINE here because you can't see that EJ doesn't get a chance to put everything into this throw from still shots. Manuel hops to set quickly, and under throws the ball for an interception.
This would count as "points left on the field" which the Bills have talked about since the end of the game. Fortunately, it didn't cost them.
One more thing that I'll leave you with as food for thought. Are the Bills babying EJ Manuel? No. I don't think that they're doing anything that isn't normally done with a young quarterback. On 3rd and goal of their first possession the Bills fail to score on a play where EJ ultimately takes a sack. There's not necessarily anything wrong with it, but be on the lookout for plays like this.
It's a half-field read.
As Manuel drops and looks to his right, all three of his targets are very close together. The Bills are looking for a quick throw, but no one flashes open.
MAYBE Stevie Johnson is available here for a back-shoulder throw? Maybe?
Manuel tucks and scrambles for a loss. The Bills settle for a field goal.
Great performances from Kiko Alonso, Marcell Dareus and Aaron Williams led the defense to a great day against the Ravens. Defensive Coordinator Mike Pettine continues to find ways to fool accomplished quarterbacks (what happened against Geno Smith I have no idea).
Offensively I think you should expect to see more traditional run formations mixed in with some read-option. EJ found running room a few times and there is more to be had in that department.
Other questions I received, and the answers I gleaned from the tape:
Yes, Stevie Johnson was often open. He didn't have his best day (1 catch for -1 yds) but accurate throws get him a touchdown and some big gainers. Nothing shocking there. He can be better, and so can his QB.
Robert Woods is getting open quite a lot too.
Kiko's first interception was another example of confusing the QB. You can see Alonso and Manny Lawson communicating during the play and passing the WRs off to one another on their crossing routes. In this process Flacco just loses Alonso.
Cleveland next...off to watch their tape.
Thanks for reading!

Advice for Passport Applicants
Guidance on travel documents for children born as a result of surrogacy arrangements entered into outside the State
The Passport Office, which is part of the Department of Foreign
Affairs, issues passports to Irish citizens.
All Irish citizens are entitled to apply for an Irish passport. Services are provided by the Passport Offices in Dublin and Cork and by Irish Diplomatic and Consular Missions overseas.
Passports are required for travel to all countries except the United Kingdom. (However, you should note that some airlines now require photo-ID for flights to the UK). With the exception of travel to the U.K., Irish citizens require a valid passport for travel to all other destinations in the E.U.
All EU citizens have the right to enter and reside in the territory of any other Member State of the Union for a period of up to three months simply by presenting a valid passport or national identity card: no other formality is required. Member States cannot set additional conditions concerning the minimum validity of duration of the identity card or passport.
Irish citizens travelling to destinations outside the EU are subject to the specific requirements of those countries for the entry of non-nationals into their territory and they should contact the relevant Embassy of those countries before they travel for the most up-to-date information on these requirements.
Validity of Passports
Infants (up to age 3) are issued with a 3 year
Children aged 3-17 are issued with a 5 year passport.
Persons aged 18 and over are issued with a 10 year passport.
In certain cases (e.g. where a previous passport has been lost or stolen), the Passport Office may restrict the validity of a replacement passport.
If you have a query regarding passport services which is not answered in the following sections you should contact the Passport Office or your nearest Embassy or Consulate.

All week long, the Washington Redskins were being very hush about who would get the nod as starter against the Browns. Turns out that even after saying he was okay and getting a promise from his father that he'd start, Robert Griffin III will not start against Cleveland and Kirk Cousins will instead be the quarterback foe Washington.
The move doesn't come as too big of a surprise, as Griffin III didn't take any first team reps all week in practice. He did participate, which gave some Redskins fans hope, but the decision was ultimately to start Cousins instead.
It's also not like Cousins is playing Brady Quinn in starting. He came in for the injured RGIII last week and not only lead the Redskins to overtime against the Ravens, he helped them win the game and keep Washington alive in the NFC playoff picture.
And it's not as though the Redskins are gearing up for a battle with the Patriots either, it's the Cleveland Browns who are a trap game at the very best.
There is no guarantee that Cousins will blow things up for the Redskins, but there is also no evidence that he'll ruin their playoff chances either. At the very worst, Cousins is mediocre and the Redskins eek out a win. There is really not a whole lot of ways Sunday can go bad for the Redskins, and starting an injured RGIII was one of them.
With that bad decision out of the way, Redskins fans are in a win-win. Either Kirk Cousins proves Washington has two capable quarterbacks in town, or the fact that RGIII will be healthy for next week will calm the crowds.

A police officer who spotted something unusual in Gresham Thursday night was given a warning not to get any closer.
"The goat will charge you," he was told.
That goat was on the roof of a house.
Officers out on patrol spotted the goat on the 300 block of Southeast 172nd Avenue at 7:30 p.m. Thursday.
When they inquired if everything was OK, seeing as how goats aren't found on rooftops every day, they were told this farm animal was not the friendly type.
In fact, they were told "that goat only respects one man," according to Gresham police. That man is the owner of the goat, who arrived at the house and got the 2-year-old animal weighing in at 35 pounds off the roof without further incident.
Officers suspect the goat used a ramp near the home to climb his way up to the top of the house.

Overall experience, very impressed and happy with Dr. Kohn. He is very sweet and calm. Made me feel very comfortable the whole time. Answered all my questions and calmed my concerns. I now feel confident that I can get pregnant with such an amazing doctor. 100% recommend him as an obgyn!

I am so greatful I was referred to Dr. Kohn. Throughout all my visits with him he was knowledgeable, caring and very attentive. He was never in a rush and ensured all my questions were answered. My husband and I trusted him completely. The office staff is friendly and well organized, I never had to wait more than 5 minutes to be seen and they always followed up promptly with test results.

Dr.Kohn is absolutely the best doctor!! He was my wife's doctor all through-out her pregnancy and he delivered our baby girl. Each and every visit he was always professional, listen to all of concerns, addressed all of our concerns and was such a pleasure to have as our doctor. As a man I never felt uncomfortable that Dr.Kohn was my wife's doctor. I really trusted his judgements and his expertise. He really is not only an amazing doctor, but as a very compassionate human being. He will definitely be the doctor for our next pregnancy!

Dr. Kohn has the best bedside manners. He is smart, calm, and quick to make decisions. We didn't have insurance at the time, he was always fair with the cost and tried to help us go to the least expensive labs. I wish we lived in CA so I could see him for my current pregnancy.

I love Dr. Khon. He has been my Dr. for 19 years now and he is truly the best! I suffered from Hyperemesis with all my pregnancies (3), and he was very caring and did everything he could to make me better. I work in a University at the School of Medicine for the ObGyn dept. and although I am surrounded by ObGyns, I could never replace him. I highly recommend him, he is wonderful!

Dr Kohn is such an amazing doctor. He delivered my daughter almost 2yrs ago and my husband and I couldn't be more happy. I suffer from hyperemesis (severe nausea & vomiting) during my pregnancies and he knew exactly what to do to help me.My first OB just used me as her guinea pig. I highly recommend Dr Kohn. He is very caring & helpful.

Dr. Kohn gave me back the confidence in doctors. After having terrible experiences with other so called "OBGYN's" I had the good fortune to find a true Doctor who listens, spends time with his patients and has the integrity to let you know when something is beyond his specialty instead of "experimenting" with his patients. This man is an example to other practitioners. My respects to you Dr. Kohn :)

Dr. Kohn is a true angel and I believe he was sent to me by God. He is amazing in the way he handles issues, and the way he makes you feel so comfortable even in the hardest times! I am so happy to have found him, and cannot wait for him to deliver my baby!! I feel in the safest of hands with him!

Love, love, love Dr. Kohn. It is such a blessing to be able to find a doctor that seems to be in it for the care and concern of his patients. I have been through many doctors and I cant say enought about the respect and trust I have in Dr. Kohn.

PENNSYLVANIA—A tragic plane crash and a dramatic mine rescue, a shocking schoolhouse massacre and a breathtaking juvenile justice scandal - not to mention a historic presidential election.
The headlines of the past 10 years were frightening, uplifting and life-changing as Pennsylvanians witnessed lost children found, a landmark evolution debate, and the ka-ching of slot machines throughout the state.
The decade started with the national spotlight on Philadelphia as George W. Bush accepted the presidential nomination at the Republican National Convention. A year later, he was thrown into the greatest crisis of his term when terrorists attacked the U.S. on Sept. 11, 2001.
One hijacked plane, United Flight 93, crashed into a field near Shanksville, Pa., after passengers revolted against their captors. Bush later tapped Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge as the first U.S. secretary of homeland security.
Western Pennsylvania again riveted the nation's attention in 2002 as rescuers frantically worked to save nine men trapped in the flooded Quecreek coal mine. After 77 hours, all were hoisted to safety.
The cameras returned to focus on the most private of communities in 2006 after a disturbed milk-truck driver burst into an Amish schoolhouse in Nickel Mines and shot 10 girls, five fatally. Charles Carl Roberts IV then killed himself.
A year earlier, a courtroom in Harrisburg hosted one of the biggest clashes between faith and evolution since the Scopes Monkey Trial decades earlier.
This time, evolution won. A federal judge barred the Dover public schools from teaching "intelligent design" in biology class, saying the concept is creationism in disguise.
And in a still-unfolding scandal in Luzerne County, two judges were charged in a cash-for-kids scam in which authorities say they took kickbacks to place teens in juvenile facilities.
The state's economy was forever changed in 2004 after the Legislature approved slot-machine casinos. The first opened near Wilkes-Barre two years later; lawmakers are now considering adding table games.
Gov. Ed Rendell and a 2005 legislative pay-raise debacle shaped politics in Pennsylvania like nothing else during the decade.
Rendell became the first Philadelphian to win the governorship in 88 years in a campaign in which he shattered state fundraising records. Two years later, the Legislature's clandestine vote to fatten their salaries became the catalyst for the ouster of two dozen incumbents and an ongoing corruption probe that has resulted in the arrests of 25 people connected to the House of Representatives.
Pennsylvanians supported the election of Barack Obama, the nation's first black president, in 2008. The commonwealth went Democratic in all three presidential elections this decade, possibly ending its "swing state" status.
Thousands of Pennsylvania troops shipped off to Iraq and Afghanistan in the "war against terror" and al-Qaida. Longtime Democratic Rep. John Murtha, a Vietnam veteran from Johnstown, made waves by calling for soldiers to come home from Iraq in 2005.
In 2006, Hazleton Mayor Lou Barletta led a crackdown on illegal immigrants and those who house and employ them. The town's ordinances were later struck down, but Barletta is now making his third bid for Congress.
Pittsburgh hosted the Group of 20 international economic summit in 2009, highlighting its rebound from a struggling former steel city to an incubator for "green" businesses.

Even as I write this I can recall the opening scene, which when I first saw it had my heart skip a beat. The deserted graveyard by the bleak marshland was atmospheric, fitting well with the menace of the escaped convict chillingly exuded by Finlay Currie. Never had the cinematic potential of Charles Dickens' classic 1861 novel, so justly adapted for film as this one. There is a 1917 silent version and a host of others, which if now seen at all owe to the name of Charles Dickens than on their own merits.
The 1946 version directed by David Lean, in 1999, came fifth in a BFI poll of the top 100 British films. The film stars John Mills, Valerie Hobson, Finlay Currie, Martita Hunt, and Alec Guinness. It was the first of two films Lean directed based on Dickens' novels, the other being his 1948 adaptation of Oliver Twist.
The script was written by Anthony Havelock-Allan, David Lean, Cecil McGivern, Ronald Neame and Kay Walsh, and the film was produced by Ronald Neame and photographed by Guy Green.
An orphan, Phillip "Pip" Pirrip (Anthony Wager), lives with his harried older sister (Freda Jackson) and her kindhearted blacksmith husband, Joe Gargery (Bernard Miles). One day, Pip runs into an escaped convict, Abel Magwitch (Finlay Currie) who by his sheer size and menacing aspects make the boy fetch him some food and a file for his chains. However, the man is soon caught and forgotten.
Later, Miss Havisham (Martita Hunt), a rich, very odd spinster, arranges to have the boy come to her mansion regularly. She is in her wedding dress surrounded by dust, cobwebs in a house going to ruin. The lad is to provide her company and to play with a cruel but beautiful teenage girl, Estella (Jean Simmons), who mocks his coarse manners at every opportunity. Pip quickly falls in love with her. There he also meets one of Miss Havisham's relations, Herbert Pocket (John Forrest), a boy about his age. Another person whom he encounters there is Mr. Jaggers (Francis L. Sullivan), Miss Havisham's lawyer. The visits come to an end when Pip turns 14 and begins his apprenticeship as a blacksmith. Estella is leaving also, to learn to become a lady.
Six years later, Mr. Jaggers shows up and tells him that a mysterious benefactor has offered to turn Pip (played as an adult by John Mills) into a gentleman, one with "great expectations". Pip naturally assumes that it is Miss Havisham. He is taken to London where Mr. Jaggers arranges for Pip to stay with Herbert Pocket (Alec Guinness), now grown up and he will teach him how to behave like a gentleman. From Herbert, Pip learns the sad story of the queer spinster: Miss Havisham has been ditched at the altar. Her embittered mind since then has chosen Estella as her instrument of vengeance, a heartless creation to break men's hearts. Pip refuses to believe it.
After Pip turns 21, a visit from Joe Gargery proves the man with great expectation is nothing more than a snob. Joe brings a request from Miss Havisham to see her. There he is delighted to be reunited with Estella (played now by Valerie Hobson), though she warns him point-blank, "You must know, Pip, I have no heart". She is about to enter London society. Estella flirts with many men, especially the wealthy and well-born Bentley Drummle (Torin Thatcher), much to Pip's disgust.
Pip receives another visitor from the past. Magwich the escaped convict. Pip now understands Magwitch is his patron, not Miss Havisham. Mr. Jaggers confirms the news, if indirectly, inasmuch as Magwitch has apparently been transported to Australia (where he made the fortune that has paid for Pip's refinement) and will be hanged if found in England. From Jagger's assistant, Mr. Wemmick (Ivor Barnard), Pip hears that there was another (who had escaped along with Magwich shown at the beginning of the film) who has come to know that Magwitch is in London. Pip makes preparations to smuggle the old man onto a packet boat and accompany him to the Continent.
He goes to bid farewell to Estella and finds her with Miss Havisham. When pressed, she tells Pip that she is going to marry Drummle. Pip affirms to Miss Havisham that she has gotten her revenge, at least on him; he loves Estella without hope. For the first time, Miss Havisham regrets her actions. After he leaves, accidentally her wedding dress catches fire and when Pip hastens to her side it is too late.
Pip, Herbert and Magwitch row out to the packet boat and they are intercepted by the waiting police, tipped off by Magwitch's great enemy. Magwitch grapples with his nemesis, who is killed when he is struck by the vessel. Magwitch is seriously injured. The old man had previously spoken to Pip of his lost daughter. Pip's suspicions are aroused and then confirmed by Mr. Jaggers: she is Estella. Pip visits the dying Magwitch and tells him of her fate, and that he, Pip, is in love with her. Magwitch passes away, a contented man.
Stricken by illness and with his expectations gone, Pip is taken home and nursed back to health by Joe Gargery. When he recovers, he revisits Miss Havisham's deserted house. There he finds Estella. (When Mr. Jaggers told Drummle of her true parentage, he breaks off the engagement and she returns to the house she had inherited from Miss Havisham.) Learning that Estella plans to live in seclusion just like her mentor, the alarmed Pip tears down the curtains and forces open the boarded-up windows; for the first time in years, sunlight blazes into the room, revealing the crumbling wedding cake surrounded by cobwebs and dust. Pip forces Estella to look, and tells her that he has never stopped loving her. After hesitating, she embraces him and they leave the house, taking one last look back when they reach the gate.
The happy ending differs greatly from both the published and unpublished conclusions to Dickens' novel.
Great Expectations won Academy Awards for Best Art Direction-Set Decoration, Black-and-White and Best Cinematography, Black-and-White, and was nominated for Best Director, Best Picture and Best Writing, Screenplay.

Directed by David Lean
Cinematography Guy Green
Running time 118 min.
Technical aspects: Camera work and settings
The film was shot in six weeks in Rochester, a town and a region with historic links to Dickens. Lean's interpretation demanded a particular kind of camera work, visual composition and set design. The director was inspired by the well lit close ups and well focused lenses of 1940s (11) American cinema, and in particular by the work of cinematographer Arthur Edeson, the director-of-photography on Casablanca. Edeson used long focuses, creating an emphatic sense of intimacy and keeping the faces sharp while softening the setting around them (12). Insisting on a corresponding visual style, Lean was forced to make changes in the crew. He replaced the camera operator Robert Krasker, who filmed Brief Encounter and later worked with Orson Welles on The Third Man, with his old collaborator, Guy Green. He wanted to substitute the 'polite' (13) look of his previous films with a more dynamic photography, long black shadows and great highlights, more appropriate for the Victorian era. He also advised Green to shoot the children using 24mm and 35mm lenses, the widest in those days, so the set would look big, and to use longer, 50mm and 75mm lenses, shooting the adults (14). The specific demands on camera work provided a difficult task for production designer, John Bryan. Bryan decided to bring the ceilings down and save the settings from disappearing in the soft focus. The forced perspective (characteristic of German silent cinema) created a sense of stylisation, contrasting the stark reality of Dickens's novel with the ominous exteriors and gothic interiors in which his characters are situated. As Lean later pointed out, Bryan "was not afraid to exaggerate, to depart from reality."( quoted from an essay of Boris Trbic http://www.sensesofcinema)

Memorable Quotes:
[welcoming Pip to her decaying mansion]
Miss Havisham: Come nearer. Let me look at you. Come close. Look at me. You aren't afraid of a woman who has never seen the sun since before you were born?
Pip: [narrating] I realized that in becoming a gentleman, I had only succeeded in becoming a snob.
Magwitch: Keep still, you young devil, or I'll slit your throat!
Joe Gargery: Pip! A young man of great expectations.
* Guy Green replaced Robert Krasker as cinematographer on this film. David Lean and Ronald Neame were not satisfied with Krasker's studio recreation of the marshes in the opening scenes.
* Alec Guinness was very nervous and self-conscious when he started filming, as he found his wig to be particularly uncomfortable.
* David Lean was not a particularly well-read man, and only became aware of the power of Charles Dickens' story when his wife Kay Walsh dragged him along to a theatrical production of "Great Expectations" in 1939. Incidentally, playing Herbert Pocket in this production, was a young Alec Guinness, whom Lean subsequently cast in the same role in the film version. Aside from bit parts, it was Guinness' first major screen role and was also the first of six films he made with Lean. Martita Hunt was also in the stage production, playing Miss Havisham, a role she reprised in the film.
* First movie speaking role for 'Alec Guiness' .
* David Lean wanted his film to have a feeling of heightened realism. Working closely in conjunction with art director John Bryan and cinematographer Guy Green, he employed several tricks, such as forced perspective, to achieve this effect. The famous opening shot in the graveyard, for instance, features a brooding church in the background which in reality was only 3 meters high.
• During one scene where she had to carry a candle while walking up the stairs, Jean Simmons' apron caught fire.

Are you a TV Fanatic?

I finally figured out who A is and I can bet it's her ...
Major clue Salt Meets Wound : Hanna thinks she figured out who A is , and sends texts to ONLY to the rest of the LIARS and noone else . And yet 5 minutes later she gets run down by a car , now HOW the heck did A come to know Hanna came to know who A was ... A is not FBI , and can't bug phones(it requires a lot of sophistication to bug them ) ... In fact what Hanna does not realize was that she told A that she knows who A is ....
A does not stand for Allison , A does not stand for Anonymous ,it stands for something more obvious .A stands for .......... Aria
I know that's a lot to digest and there are a lot of rebuttals coming my way.
Firstly she has an accomplice for sure...
And logically Aria does not think Hanna found out about her in Salt Meet Wounds , she thought Hanna found out about her accomplice .. The same accomplice who ran a car down Hanna on Aria's instructions .. Later when Hanna says A is Noel , Aria is relieved and sends another text to the girls and herself ofcourse :) .. ( Noel is not the accomplice )
The accomplice is a guy obviously , because pushing off Ian , fighting 4 girls requires strength ..
And it makes more sense , A does not start torturing again till Aria returns????
I agree If A wasn't Aria , it would have needed all 4 girls to be present , but I guess 3 isn't bad when you are really out of your mind . In short what I meant to say was , A happenings start again in Rosewood , not when another victim returns..... But when A herself returns :)
A isn't equipped with mobile bugs and extenndable ears and spy cams . Those require a lot of sophistication .. A is two steps ahead always , because A has the first hand knowledge about what the rest of the girls are doing ...
Remember the Chukie dolls task ???
A asks Spencer and Hanna to do , very very harsh tasks , and yet all Aria had to do was blackmail the ex-girlfriend of her boyfriend and make hers and Ezra's a bit life easier
A has always had a soft corner for Aria.,
Now in ep Where the Spencer and Emily pretend to fight , Aria knows about it and yet is dumb enough to send her accomplice ????
Well she sent the accomplice to give the girls another false clue , i.e the infamous mobile of A. Believe me the mobile phone videos are exactly the same thing as the videos of Ian ..,
The person who is going to get arrested in the season finale is one of the innocent guys in those videos , and the beloved character who is going to die , will be the only one who will figure out the truth of Aria and her accomplice but sadly , will not live to cry it out loud .
I have answers to all your questions but sadly can't make this article any longer ..,
And you guys can figure out the accomplice and PLL sounds a lot like scream 5 now .
I actually kinda agree, for a while now I've been thinking what if it's aria, i know it does seem kinda stupid but alot of that makes sense - and another thing, it's only little but i've always wandered about it, why on the theme does it zoom in on only aria going sshhh and none of the others? - the only things making me doubt this are the sabotage attempts on her like when a gives hanna the ticket to set up her and ezra - i mean she clda been testing hanna but why would she risk it!? she didnt know that caleb would step in.
I really don't think spencer, ian and toby are A-. I mean why would they do that scene in the church, spencer acusing Ian of being A if they both are A? Specially when no one was seeing them? Melissa + Ian is a possible theory. But definately not spencer. Alison (or her twin sister) will be present in 2x24. And then we get to know who is A. I don't think mona is A. I don't think she has the guts, at least not on the show, she was too involved with hanna and the girls.
I also think noel has something to do with A. He wrote ''I see you'' in the car when aria and ezria were kissing. Why would he do that? He didn't sign ''A-'' because he saw Hanna watching, and the ran her over. That's most logical explination for that moment. And no, unless the writers of the show want to make Aria look like a professional secret agent. Where did she get the time to organize the whole thing? Aria CAN'T be A.
I wonder if it is Spencer... If you look at the new promo, around second 14, Hannah is about to hit someone with her car. From what I can tell, Spencer is NOT in the car and the person running in front of the car is wearing a yellow dress almost EXACTLY like spencers..idk its a pretty strong coincidence.

Really explore what area you want to study and try to contact older students who will give you an honest answer. If you can get the contact information of student organization leaders that would be ideal. You can probably google a list of student organizations at smu. I also recommend learning as much information about your prospective area of study at smu and talking to older students (if you visit ask other students). If you do decide to attend SMU APPLY for scholarships. This school is also a party school, so if that's your main reason for attending college you should go here. The school is more so a party school for white students, in regards to minority partying and fun it's limited because this population is very small. Not saying you can't partake in the fun of others, but if you're looking for fun from minority greek life it lacks a strong presence on this campusRead More
1) Visit the campus. 2) Join an oganization. 3) Make homework a priority, even if you didn't have to in high school.Read More
-Become friends with everyone who works in the cafeterias! -Apply and enroll sooner rather than later! The earlier you're officially affiliated with the campus, the more opportunities you'll have. -Do your homework.

As a college student, you can skip class if you want to, but don't take advantage of that. You'll only end up falling behind in class and, at worst, failing. Take advantage of office hours (which are when the professors have the doors to their offices open to talk to students) and really try to get to know your professors. This isn't like high school. You kinda have to get along with your professors. Most importantly, do you homework. It's easy to fall behind, and once you do, you'll have to fight tooth and nail and claw your way back.Read More

While traditional laptop sales continued to struggle in 2012, the tablet gold rush continued with new players like Google and Microsoft trying to get a piece of the action. This is the year where we saw tremendous leaps forward in tablet hardware and software.
Sharper screens were a huge trend as we saw a number of tablets with higher-than-HD resolutions, including the new iPad and its Retina display. Quad-core tablets went mainstream and got a lot cheaper this year and, by the end of the year, you could get one for under $200. On the software side, we saw major operating system updates for Android and iOS while Microsoft changed its entire paradigm by putting a touch-based UI front and center in Windows 8. With so much innovation happening this year, it can be difficult to separate the wheat from the chaffe. Fortunately, we've taken the time to identify the top 10 tablets of 2012.
The world's leading tablet just keeps getting better. In 2012, Apple updated the iPad not once but twice, adding a 2048 x 1536 Retina display that just makes everything look gorgeous. With a snappy dual-core A6X CPU, 12 hours life and the industry's largest ecosystem, the iPad remains the tablet to beat.

FINALLY it's preseason preview time here at AppFan. We're calling it Over/Under 2011. Every few days we'll throw out our best guess estimate of a future stat, and you tell us why we're wrong.
Tomorrow is the big Fan Fest scrimmage. And, as scheduled, we're ready for our annual confliction.
But this year we may not be so conflicted. While everyone is hyped to see some DP-Quick goodness on the O, there will be plenty of attention given to the new look D.
3-4 is the new scheme. And, according to coach Moore, it fits like an Under Armour glove.
Moore said that the change to three down linemen and four linebackers fits his team's personnel, with enough size up front and a multitude of linebacker candidates.
"We haven't always had the depth that we have right now, but we've always had pretty good linebackers that can run," Moore said. "Then you take a Lanston Tanyi for instance (who has moved from defensive end to outside linebacker), he can play defensive end, but he can run like a linebacker."
"We think we're as good up front as we've ever been," Jones said. "We have depth there."
The WSJ article drops some names, including freshman Ronald Blair, who "has moved in front of redshirt freshman Will Corbin (6-6, 300) at weak-side defensive end in the three-man front."
The numbers sound good too. 6-4, 260. 6-1, 305. 6-6, 250. 6-5, 235. Looks like size and speed.
Over/Under – Yards allowed by the App State defense: 330.
The low-water mark for the defense the past four seasons is 318, which came during the 2009 year when the D looked lost early. (Remember McNeese State?)
The most porous season was 2007, when 380 yards were allowed per game. And still App State won a title.
Yet the past few seasons have seen much griping about the stopping of the ball, or lack there of. It's been awhile since App has pitched a shutout. And though the D often doesn't break but just bend, there's been a lot of bending. Uh-lot.
Maybe the new assignments and new schemes will instill some new urgency. Or in the least confuse some league foes.
For that reason we'll go under. We think the defense is hungry for some love.
Looking at the schedule, Va Tech will be formidable regardless of how the 11-man equation is stacked. But the following two weeks feature smaller, less heralded offenses before the point-happy Mocs come to town (31.5 pts a game last year)
