Energy News Roundup: Fatal Oil Sands Bear Attack, US Ethane to Europe & Obama Energy-related Announcements TodayBy Jared Anderson
The idea that global oil production was nearing its peak, only to plateau and then decline was a common view in the energy world for many years. The geophysicist M. King Hubbert predicted in the 1950's that US oil production would peak in the 1970's, a forecast that held true until technology allowed companies to… Keep reading →
Russian gas independent Novatek and Gazprom oil-producing arm Gazpromneft have agreed to a $2.94bln deal to buy Italian Eni's stake in SeverEnergia, which is expected to produce 36 billion cubic meters of gas and liquids by 2017, equivalent to two-thirds of Novatek's production, according to Reuters. A joint venture of Eni and Italian Enel has a 49% stake in SeverEnergia, of which Eni controls 60%. Investment… Keep reading →
A disrupted planting schedule and unusually wet weather has increased demand for propane used to dry corn, creating shortages exacerbated by transportation bottlnecks. "A lot of guys are being rationed at 300 to 500 gallons a day, and it's just not enough," said John Plathe, 49, a corn farmer in west-central Minnesota. "If this were… Keep reading →
The EIA's latest Short-Term Energy and Winter Fuels Outlook finds US households heated with natural gas, propane and electricity face higher heating bills this winter. Homes in the northeast that use heating oil will pay slightly less for the fuel than last year. These price movements are primarily due to changes in underlying commodity prices,… Keep reading →
Addressing the natural gas flaring issue in North Dakota's portion of the Bakken Shale formation is not as simple as just connecting new wells to pipeline infrastructure. Sometimes new, high-pressure wells can overwhelm existing infrastructure and without additional compression, more frequent maintenance or expanding the system, extinguishing the flares is not feasible. The latest report… Keep reading →
As US natural gas production swelled in recent years – largely a result of shale gas development – and prices fell amid burgeoning supply, producers moved rigs to economically greener pastures. In a world of comparatively high oil prices, this meant more liquids rich natural gas resources that produced ethane, butane, propane and pentanes, known… Keep reading →
The Three Forks formation in North Dakota, South Dakota and Montana could hold more undiscovered, technically recoverable oil than the Bakken Shale that lies above it, according to the United States Geological Survey's (USGS) latest assessment.
The mean of the estimate for the two formations' combined undiscovered, technically recoverable oil is 7.38 billion barrels, effectively doubling the 2008 estimate for the Bakken shale alone. The mean estimate for Bakken oil, at 3.65 bn bbls – the same as in 2008 – is just shy of the Three Forks' 3.73 bn bbl estimate. Keep reading →
Range Resources' position in the Marcellus, and the market access it offers, gives the a leg up over condensate producers in other parts of the country, according to the company's Senior Vice-President Rodney Waller.
Range holds a million acres in the Pennsylvania portion of the Marcellus shale some in dry gas areas, and some in wet gas or "super rich," where the production stream yields liquids, such as condensate and NGLs. Range Chief Executive Jeff Ventura noted earlier this year that in 2012, the company's Marcellus wet gas acreage was producing 49% liquids, compared to 57% in the super rich area. Keep reading →
While LNG exports from the US are hotly debated, major shale gas player Range Resources was recently excited to proclaim it will be the first company to export natural gas liquids via ship from the US. Range has an agreement in place to begin ethane shipments to a petrochemical concern in Norway beginning in 2015.
We have a sales VP in Europe now – they [NGL sales team] got a call from China and there's interest in Pittsburgh," Rodney Waller, Range Senior Vice President said at the Independent Petroleum Association of America's Oil & Gas Investment Symposium held last week in New York. Keep reading →

Harmon Kardon's SoundStick speaker system drew headlines when it first appeared many years ago. And it continues to be the point of focus, at least in the New York City Museum of Modern Art, where it has become a "permanent fixture" – in what capacity we don't know. The first iteration of the forward looking speaker system was of the wired ilk, and rightfully so as when it first arrived Airplay didn't exist, and the iPhone was simply an idea. Fast forward 12 years (yes, the first ones launched at Apple's WWDC in July 2000) and today we're happy to introduce the arrival of the wireless version.
Harmon Kardon's original design was clearly complementary to the Apple's of a generation before, and like all good roots they haven't completely abandoned their heritage. Nevertheless, this speaker system has been updated with wireless functionality. In addition to offering Bluetooth connectivity for streaming tunes directly from any compatible device, the satellite speakers, which are replete with 4 drivers each, are also of the wireless ilk and can be placed through out a room free of the confines of wires, with the exception of a power cord. The same will apply for the subwoofer, which sports a 6-inch downward firing woofer, which we can only assume is in addition to the SoundSticks satellite speaker's 40-watts of juice. If you prefer to go old school there is a 3.5mm AUX input for those with dumb phones or older generation iPods, as well as independent touch controls for changing volume.
You can pick up the Harmon Kardoun SoundSticks Wireless speakers direct for a now discounted $229.
Update: the satellite speakers each have 10 watts of power, while the sub produces 20w.

Split Pea Soup
Tracy Keenan freezes leftover ham bones to flavor this split pea soup. If you don't have a ham bone in your freezer, buy a ham hock from the meat counter; the meat on the bone makes a nice addition to the soup. This soup is great the day after you make it; thin with water as you reheat, if desired.
Yield: Makes 8 cups; 4 to 6 servings

The lies and the cover-up of Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Susan Rice, Jay Carney, Stephanie Cutter and the rest of the Barack Obama Administration liars. Here is a timeline of the situation in Benghazi and the Terrorist attacks on the United States Embassy and the deaths of Christopher Stevens and three others. http://thpatriots.blogspot.com/2012/10/benghazi-embassy-attack-obama-cover-up_12.html
On Sept. 11, scores of men with automatic weapons and RPGs launched a night assault on the U.S. compound in Benghazi, killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and set the building ablaze. Using mortars, they launched a collateral attack on a safe house, killing two more Americans, as other U.S. agents fled to the airport.
On Sept. 14, White House press secretary Jay Carney said the attack came out of a spontaneous protest caused by an anti-Muslim video on YouTube.
On Sept. 16, U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice told the entire nation the attack had not been premeditated or preplanned but emanated from a...

NRG's VP Kevin Howell mysteriously dumped
almost 25,000 company shares last week, selling them of at $43 per
after a failed attempt to buy back $4.7 billion of senior debt. Two
days later the executive VP followed suit with 6,500 shares in the same
pay range. Still, the new nuclear-plant owner and prospective operator
of twin
newbie nukes at South Texas Nuclear Project has some more than the sale
to explain away, as we write in our Queque this week. The U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission is asking
plant operators to elaborate on their security policies, with
a special focus on sleeping guards, I'm told.
"Several of our licensees have had instances of inattentive security officers," said Roy Zimmerman, director of the Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response. "While multiple layers of defense at each site maintained its security, the NRC is concerned that, collectively, these incidents are a sign that some licensees are not giving appropriate attention to the effectiveness of this portion of their security programs."
For San Antonio's 40-percent power solution, South Texas Nuclear Project, there will likely be detailed references regarding why one-third of private security contractor Wackenhut's guards have repeatedly stated that they knew of fellow officers who had been harassed by management for raising potential security concerns at the plant.
Now such harassment isn't new in the nuke world. It was endemic during the construction of both STNP and North Texas' Comanche Peak. Dated but thoroughly fascinating reading on the history of both Texas plants til about 2003 can be found at Texas Radiation Online.
In 2002, the NRC signaled out three Wackenhut-guarded nuclear power plants for in-depth review due to the high number of security-related employee allegations, according to the Service Employees International Union.

For conservative talkmeister Rush Limbaugh, the superior medical care he received at Hawaii's Queen's Medical Center served as vindication of his well-known view that the American health care system is just perfect and needs no fixing.
At a news conference following his release last week, Limbaugh declared, "Based on what happened here to me, I don't think there's one thing wrong with the American health care system. It is working just fine, just dandy."
Based on what happened to him? Limbaugh's use of his own circumstances to justify his ongoing tirade against the health care overhaul would be comic if he didn't have so much influence on the body politic.
Suffice it say that the vast majority of Americans don't have Limbaugh's money. His net worth has been variously estimated at anywhere from $685 million to more than $1 billion.
That sort of wealth buys excellent insurance and the cash to cover those pesky out-of-pocket costs that accompany most hospital stays. Limbaugh could pay the exorbitant prices that an insurer might charge for a pre-existing condition — such as health problems that might follow prescription drug abuse — or simply pay his medical bills from cash if he needed to.
(And, despite his insistence that he received "no special treatment," celebrities usually do. This is no slap at Queen's Medical Center, but I suspect doctors and nurses there were paying extra attention to Limbaugh, given his stature.)
The health care legislation under consideration by Congress wouldn't give the rest of us access to the sort of premium care that Limbaugh can afford. But it would help more than 30 million Americans who don't have insurance afford to purchase it. That means hard-working housepainters, store clerks, warehouse workers and hospital orderlies can finally get the decent medical care they need.
If responses from my readers are any indication, critics hold a lot of misconceptions about the proposals before Congress. Some readers believe that the health care overhaul would reward the stereotypical welfare recipient. Not so.
The poorest Americans are already covered by Medicaid, just as older Americans are covered by Medicare (both of which are much closer to socialized medicine than anything in the bills recently passed by the House and the Senate.) But there are millions of Americans who work hard everyday, earning too much for Medicaid, but not enough to afford health insurance premiums.
And it isn't just the cost of the premiums. Insurers set up a byzantine system specifically designed to weed out consumers who actually get sick and eat into the profit margins. Most insurers limit their coverage of patients who already have a treatable illness — a "pre-existing condition." Some insurance companies resort to obscure rules to find reasons not to pay for a patient's medical care, instead ending their coverage. They call that "rescission." Health care reform aims to curb those practices.
Republicans in Congress — the vast majority of whom, listening to Limbaugh, have opposed the health care legislation — are beginning to concede they are unlikely to stop Democrats from passing a historic health care bill; but the GOP hasn't given up its hopes of blocking reform. Among other tactics, some conservatives are talking up the idea of a legal challenge to the "mandate" — the requirement that all Americans have health insurance.
Hawaii, though, where Limbaugh received such excellent health care, passed a mandate that employers provide generous health care benefits back in 1974. Perhaps as a result, Hawaii residents have longer life spans than most Americans, according to The New York Times. They also have lower insurance premiums.
So I think I've found something on which Limbaugh and I agree: Hawaii offers good health care. Congress should make sure the rest of the country gets something similar.

Those of us that strongly oppose the so called health care reform aren't against it because someone further down the economic chain might benefit. It's the reality that the poor health care that Medicaid recipients currently receive is what we will be what we're forced to accept when it all shakes out a few years from now. If I'm paying for it ( and likely yours as well), I'd rather that mine be as high in quality as possible.

Thank you Cynthia for pointing out what everyone should know if they actually took time to read the news articles and Internet reports that aren't skewed politically. Rather than being lazy and letting talk show entertainers fill their ears with, um, well, entertaining perspectives, concerned citizens should take time to actually read. What you wrote is exactly what I understand the new health care bill to be. It will help people like me- middle age, middle class, hard working, earning $50K a year who suffered a Workforce Reduction and was out of work for six months and just now is getting back on top of paying the bills. My mom was a Medicare recipient for 8 years before she died. I've had to accept unemployment insurance when I was in-between jobs. These "socialized" programs provided basic assistance at a time when it was needed most. I believe I'm as American as they come, and proud too, but when I need it most, I'm humbly grateful for the help our government provides. I support this health care bill, yes I do! Hannity and Limbaugh…you do not speak for me!

Over the past five years, I've had an appendectomy, surgery for a deviated septum and a detached retina. My insurer – Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Georgia paid the claims. They still insure me and the premium increases have been reasonable. My wife has had ongoing treatment for a chronic nerve condition that causes debilitating spasms in her middle back. She gave birth to our second son three years ago. Our children have been in and out of doctors offices for the usual childhood ailments. We're still with the same insurer. This is not a plug for Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Georgia. I would like to see Ms. Tucker provide some specific examples instead of the cynical allegory that passes for editorial content.
If you are so compassionate, you could start an insurance company that will accept people with preexisting conditions. However, you won't last very long. I agree that we as a nation do need to do something about the Medicare/Medicaid programs. Adding a new layer that will bankrupt the country and resign us to economic sclerosis is not the answer.

As someone who lives in Hawaii, I can tell you that our healthcare system is excellent. But lets be clear, we pay a price. A big price. We have the highest tax rate in the nation. We also have one of the worst job markets in the nation (pay scale is about 20-30% less then our mainland counterparts). We have one of the highest costs of living in the nation.
The Democrats have had a iron-vise lock on political power here for over 50 years, controlling all branches of government for that long with only the most recent 8 years seeing a liberal RINO governor as the sole non-Democrat.
And the result of the loony left in power here in Hawaii is repeated like in other states where the left rules (see Detroit, Chicago, San Francisco, to name a few): Our schools are the worst, our infrastructure is crumbling, we've got homeless sleeping on the streets, the middle class is disappearing, housing is insanely expensive (median home price is about $600,000!).
Oh yeah, we're broke.
So yes, we've got great healthcare. Lots of wonderful welfare programs. Too bad only the rich or the poor have it good here. The rest of us are slaves to government.
You too will have what we have here in the Birthplace-of-Obama-the-Anointed-One.

To achieve health care reform, "I'm going to have all the negotiations around a big table. We'll have doctors and nurses and hospital administrators. Insurance companies, drug companies — they'll get a seat at the table, they just won't be able to buy every chair. But what we will do is, we'll have the negotiations televised on C-SPAN, so that people can see who is making arguments on behalf of their constituents, and who are making arguments on behalf of the drug companies or the insurance companies. And so, that approach, I think is what is going to allow people to stay involved in this process."

Myth –"But it would help more than 30 million Americans who don't have insurance afford to purchase it. "
Reality — The number of uninsured was originally touted as 46 or 47 million (depending upon who you asked). Most media rounded up the figure to an even 50 million. In reality, the number is closer to 16 million that are truly "uninsured" and can't get insurance. The other roughly 30 million is made up of (1) people that qualify for some sort of government program, but for whatever reason don't sign up, (2) families that make over $75,000 a year that choose to self-insure, (3) college kids who have come off their parents policies and are awaiting coverage, as well as (4) other people who are in the waiting period at their employers. Lastly, the millions of undocumented workers are counted in this category as well.

Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, St. Paul , Minnesota , points out some interesting facts concerning last November's Presidential election:
Number of States won by: Democrats: 19 Republicans: 29
Square miles of land won by: Democrats: 580,000 Republicans: 2,427,000
Population of counties won by: Democrats: 127 million Republicans: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Democrats: 13.2 Republicans: 2.1
Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Republicans won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country.
Democrat territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in low income tenements and living off various forms of government welfare…"
Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.

By forcing insurance companies to keep high risk patients, the plan will raise health costs for everyone. And that seems to be part of the plan, since anyone with half a clue knows that will be the result. When it happens, the Democrats can claim that they tried to avoid a public option but the evil insurance industry made things worse, and they hope to ride that momentum into pushing across a government-run plan. Pretty clever, I must admit. Bottom line, though, is that I don't want to pay for someone else's health care, any more than I should buy food, shelter or clothing for them. Tax dollars should support publicly-shared needs: Police, fire, roads, parks, public buildings, things we all use. Health care, like other personal needs, does not fit that description because some will need more doctoring than others. If I make good health decisions in my life, why should I shell out more tax dollars so some lazy, fat, chain-smoking alcoholic can have medical care on our dime? If such a plan ever passes, I may just start eating butter by the spoonful, knowing that Uncle Sam and his 300 million benefactors will help defray the negative consequences.

Home School DropOut,
According to the House bill, at least the most likely, your friend has a Cadillac insurance policy – and will be taxed heavily for it.
Cynthia, With his wealth, why would Rush want to buy health insurance, his wealth means he is self insured – as are most very wealthy folks. Do you think Bill Gates worries about health care? Under this administration, they will be "fined" for not buying health care insurance, that is a tax on success.

There is a certain amount of money to go around. When the law of supply and demand is tossed aside, the only result is that supply will keep up with demand as long as the supply is cheapened with inferior products. I don't mind inferior widgets but I really don't think any of us want inferior health care. When the price of health care is controlled and lowered artificially so that everyone has access to it it simply means that everyone will have access to artificially lowered quality.

Doug I'm fine with 49 states as long as we don't have to support Hawaii as a territory. Your state is a mess – imagine it as a Chinese owned country. At least you wouldn't have freedom or liberty to kick around anymore.

I am amused by all of these comments on Hawaiian health care by those that have no idea how it works. Employer sponsored health care is mandated by law in Hawaii for employees working more than about 30 hours per week and has been for a long time. The same category of people who predict doom and gloom from our new health care reform said that small business could not survive in Hawaii with mandatory health care. They predicted all the fast food jobs, small business jobs, etc. would disappear. It never happened. They predicted outrageous premiums for the average worker. Wrong. Hawaii also has SHIP (state health insurance plan) for those not eligible at work ie. part-timers. This helps to eliminate the uninsured and the associated costs of treating them at others expense when they show up at hospital emergency rooms. The system is far from perfect. Major insurance companies like HMSA, Straub and Kaiser have a stranglehold on the business, but despite this lack of competition the costs compared to other Hawaiian expenses are lower. This is the most remote island chain in the world. Expenses are high, not just because of the current leadership, but mostly from logistics and lack of competition in things like shipping and the cost of land due to scarcity. The Hawaiian who complained about high taxes needs to check facts. I compare my tax bills to several relatives on the mainland. My sister pays 3 times what I pay in property taxes for her house of 1/3 the value. Queens is indeed a leader in health care and is also unionized. So much for the rabid anti-union people too. Health care can be more affordable if we all participate. What value do health insurance companies add for their added costs? A commenter said health care is not a right. What is more basic than the right to life? Whether a person lives or dies should not be subject to an executive's bonus plan.

Reality — The number of uninsured was originally touted as 46 or 47 million (depending upon who you asked). Most media rounded up the figure to an even 50 million. In reality, the number is closer to 16 million that are truly "uninsured" and can't get insurance. The other roughly 30 million is made up of (1) people that qualify for some sort of government program, but for whatever reason don't sign up, (2) families that make over $75,000 a year that choose to self-insure, (3) college kids who have come off their parents policies and are awaiting coverage, as well as (4) other people who are in the waiting period at their employers. Lastly, the millions of undocumented workers are counted in this category as well.
Actually Reality, you are missing a category and maybe others. I don't fit into your categories above. My job was outsourced and I have not been able to find another. At this time my premiums have increased to $769 per month with a $3000 deductible. If they increaase further, I will drop the coverage. There are plenty out there who have dropped their coverage due to this. We want to pay for our insurance but cannot afford to. We make just enough to not qualify for free coverage. Stop trying to fit everyone into your fancy equations,. The truth of the matter is, health care is broken and it may not be for you but if you live long enough, you will find out.

Thank God the government is going to do something about refusing insurance for pre-existing conditions. Now I'll be able to stop paying the $250 a month I pay for long-term care insurance and just wait until I develop Alzheimer's to buy insurance. And I can drop all of my life insurance and just let my family buy it after I die. Right?

Seems like the single largest item everyone agrees about is pre-existing conditions. So why do we need a 2,700 page bill to eliminate pre-existing conditions? Had the Democrats taken this issue on with small bites, one at a time, they would have had at least 2-3 of their individual healthcare "pieces" passed and signed. But instead, they went "all in" with an overloaded, bribery-filled, bloated Pelosi/Reid monster that doesn't deliver benefits for 3-4 years, but delivers higher taxes immediately. Great move!

The dregs of society complain because their own decisions have lead to a lack of success in almost all phases of life. Politicans buy their vote, with our money, and GIVE the failures what others earn for themselves. A catastrophe occurs, such as the hurricane Katrina, and what does one observe. The dregs sitting on their rearends, hands out, saying, "gimme…"(New Orleans), the typical citizen looking, evaluating, and then commencing to clean up after the storm and rebuild their lives(Mississippi coast residents), and then the dregs demonstrate why they are dregs by complaining of not receiving the identical treatment as others. Incidentally, the dregs caused millions in damage to facilities provided and complained bitterly when placed else where so most people could continue to rebuild.

Who in their right mind would pass a 2,000 page bill without reading it first? oops sorry Liberals. Why not fix the problems with our health care system first and then work on a health care bill, what scares most Americans is the fear of our Govt. screwing it up.
Obama wants a legacy to his time in office regardless of the cost. When he and all politicans go under the same plan as me then I will support it.

Oh Cindy, you're at it again ….
In the USA we still have some, and I sincerely wish we had more, freedom to do with our money what we wish. If we wish to purchase health insurance we can, if we wish to purchase a television we can, … you get the idea (I hope).
The new healthcare destruction act, billed by fools and liars like you, is not about assuring "hard-working housepainters, store clerks, warehouse workers and hospital orderlies can finally get the decent medical care they need." Frankly, they already have that option and service available. At present, the CAN get the medical care they need AND want.
If the new legislation goes into effect, that very medical care will be diminished – or eliminated – because of three simple interrelated factors: 1. supply of medical care is limited, there are only so many doctors, etc.; 2. "giving" free or lower direct-personal cost access (i.e., take my money to pay for your healthcare) increases demand; and 3. lower quality and rationing begins when demand exceeds supply without incentives (i.e., higher rewards) for suppliers. That three-part mix is precisely what the legislation you so loudly praise includes.
To borrow a few of your words … "If responses from my readers are any indication,…." very few people want any part of this deplorable legislation. It is flawed and borders on criminal.
"Some readers believe that the health care overhaul would reward the stereotypical welfare recipient. Not so." This is a partially true statement. The facts are, this legislation will not only reward the stereotypical welfare recipient, it will actually create many more stereotypical welfare recipients as well as move many to become welfare-like recipients in behavior and treatment.
"The poorest Americans are already covered by Medicaid, just as older Americans are covered by Medicare (both of which are much closer to socialized medicine than anything in the bills recently passed by the House and the Senate.)" And, both provide a vivid picture of how messed up the healthcare system will be if this legislation is passed.
Finally, if you want to see the ultmate "byzantine system specifically designed to weed out consumers who actually get sick and eat into the profit margins," go sit at a VA facility for a day, or look at the inner workings of the proposed legislation.
You are little more than a hand-puppet for the current Democrats who seek only to take from the real producers and give to the illegals and low/non-producers.
Try reporting or offering opinions based on fact – without attempting to destroy or throw editorial stones at another person. My guess is the lower the fact quotient the higher the call names and attack people quotient.
As I have said before, if nothing else, you are consistent – wrong and among the more biased spinners in the business.

If the system is in such crisis now, why won't most of the 'benefits' kick in until 2013? More to the point, watch for court challenges to legislation that forces citizens to buy anything. That's unprecedented and may not be constitutional (as if that stops anybody anymore)

The only people who comment on editorials are people that are incapable of forming their own opinions. This person's entire job is to be "controversial" so you people will read her column and argue and fight. This so called "journalist" doesn't care if you agree or disagree. She only cares that you read her column so she can keep her job. You people are really a very sad group.
And to clarify, I am commenting on the pathetic losers that comment on editorials, not the editorial itself. There is a difference.

Most of the Right's blindness is a pre-existing condition and would not be covered under any Rx plan available, not even in Cuba, or Britain, or France. I would suggest a guide dog, maybe Ann Coulter. She'll get the GOP through all the logic mountains in the flat earth they live in. She'll guide them through the birth canal of Born Again land. She is a seeing eye K-9. And she's got a nose for news. Whatever conservatives do, they should get a yellow journalism test kit, and not ingest yellow journalism. (or yellow snow, especially with Ann Coulter, the seeing eye dog, around.)
Is that like a Catch 22?

The failed Detroit BVD bomber had this to say about the way his burns were treated after his capture: "Based on what happened here to me, I don't think there's one thing wrong with the American health care system. It is working just fine, just dandy."
He went on to say that the chicken dinner on the flight was "Tough and Stringy".

I wonder what the final cost of his hospital bill will be. If he didn't get any special treatment, that amount is what a poor family would have to pay for the same treatment.
The most common reason for bankruptcy is an unexpected medical bill.

Equating longevity to health care is misleading. Don't you think it would have more to do with the native population's genes and more healthy lifestyles?
Anyone that showed up at the emergency room would have gotten the initial care Rush received.
The health care reform being considered does do a few good things, but overall it's bad legislation. It will not cover everyone and is going to make it more expensive, not less. And only Congress could come up with something so complicated. The maze gets even more confusing.
What's wrong with "socialized medicine?" It's good enough for our poor, our elderly, our military personnel and our veterans. Why shouldn't minimum wage workers and small business people have access to the care they're providing to retirees?
Cynthia, it's a matter of priorities. Many people that "can't afford" health insurance smoke and drink excessively, drive new cars and vacation annually.

January 31, 1996: Corel buys WordPerfect
1996 - Corel not only gets WordPerfect form Novell, but also Quattro Pro for $180 million in stock and cash. Michael Cowpland (Founder of Corel) called WordPerfect the "Pepsi to Microsoft's Coke". I guess that was not the case as OpenOffice (RC maybe?) surpassed WordPerfect users.WordPerfect and Corel have been in flux since 2006, when Vector Capital purchased 72% of the company. Just this last year, they bought up the remaining stock and became privately held once again.

Sitting here, just wondering.
What did I do wrong?
Do you prefer the attention from others?
Did you not love me, all along?
You said how deeply you felt for me.
Was that truly all a lie?
I tried to shed my tears today,
But over you, enough I've cried.
My heart can't take much of anymore pain.
For you, I thank you much.
You knew in the past, I went through hell.
With that, you gained my trust.
Now that's lost and someone else
may want to gain it, from me.
But that poor fellow will go through hell,
because my heart's a stone, you see.
You broke down my wall and now it's back.
Stronger than ever before.
The love I had for you still remains..
But now my heart is a barred up door.

For the first time in what seems like a decade, the Sharks faced a statement game (as the underdog) Monday night in San Jose.
Over recent years, most NHL clubs would use their games against the Sharks as benchmarks to where they stand in the league. However, as the Sharks entered play on Monday they were just 8-5-2 through their first 15 games, good enough for third place in the Pacific division and 10th in the Western Conference.
While teams still respect the Sharks as a perennial playoff contender, there has been some significant chinks in the teal armor thus far this season. That said, Monday's game against the Los Angeles Kings–which wrapped up a five-game home-stand–was a legitimate benchmark game for the Sharks.
The Kings, winners of six in a row coming in the game, are first in the Pacific division and first in the Western Conference. At 12-3-0 prior to facing the Sharks, it was clear before puck drop that the Kings were the squad being measured up and not the other way around.
And in their first statement game as a team significantly behind in the standings, the Sharks didn't disappoint. All four lines chipped in goals as San Jose finished off their home-stand in impressive fashion by beating the Kings, 6-3.
All in all, 13 Sharks found themselves on the score-sheet and the top two lines each produced two goals in what was by far the most impressive performance of the season. Arguably the most significant factoid of San Jose's convincing win over the Kings was that all-star center and captain Joe Thornton wasn't amongst the 13 who picked up a point.
Perhaps not a popular occurrence for fantasy owners, but the fact San Jose was able to spread out the scoring against one of top teams in all of the NHL was absolutely critical.
Considering the Sharks had been snake-bit early on in the home-stand against the Ducks and Islanders, getting improved secondary scoring would be crucial to taking down a higher quality opponent like the Kings. Moreover, with top-pair defenseman Douglas Murray out for the first time all season with a lower-body injury, it was all the more important for the Sharks to crank up the offense.
With San Jose's defense short-handed, it was highly likely that the offense would have to come up big and they did exactly that. Six goals in all matched San Jose's highest out-put of the season (previously reached just once previously back against Edmonton on Oct. 23) and the top two lines each scored even strength for the first time all season.
Ryane Clowe, Logan Couture and Joe Pavelski, the newly put together second line, picked up all three points on Clowe's first period goal that tied the score at one a piece on Monday night and Pavelski added a goal on the power-play in the third. Dating back to their first game as a line (Thursday against the Islanders), the trio has now combined for 14 points in three games. Torrey Mitchell, Scott Nichol, Patrick Marleau, and Dany Heatley picked up the other four goals, as six different skaters lit the lamp against the division leaders. Marleau's tally also came on the power-play which went 2-for-3 on the night and for the first time in a half dozen games did not allow a odd man rush against.
With San Jose getting offense both five on five and on the power-play, Sharks netminder Antero Niittymaki was finally given some breathing room. The Sharks' No. 1 netminder turned away 32 of 35 shots in the victory but in his previous two starts had been given just three goals of support. The same offensive support he received against Anaheim and New York simply wouldn't have been enough to beat the high-powered Kings.
But when it came down to the biggest test of the season for the Sharks, the offense came through the way they needed to, capping off the home-stand with nine out of a possible 10 points.
Now they just have to find a way to score on the road…

Fibromyalgia life-saver!

My very experienced fibro doctor recommended using Mg-malate to help reduce muscle pain. It has been a life-saver for me, and does a lot to reduce muscle soreness and cramping. These Source Natural capsules are a great size, allowing me to spread my dose over the day. They're not full of unnecessary fillers, which makes them much easier on the stomach than most others. I'm approaching the decade mark on living with fibro, and I highly recommend these.

*This* form of magnesium is much easier on my stomach. Other forms also help with pain and cramping (muscles, menstrual, etc.) as well as magnesium malate, but for me the others came at a cost that I hated to pay--bathroom emergencies. Magnesium malate helps with sleep, relaxation, fibromyalgic pain. Take it apart from your calcium supplements--they compete for the same receptor sites in the body. This is a great brand and a great price.

Some thoughts from the Georgia Tech loss to Miami Tuesday night.
1. Offense is really, really struggling right now. Effective ball movement isn't there, and the guards are having trouble creating off the dribble, which means not a lot of easy shots. As I wrote in the game story, Tech's rate of assisted baskets (if that is the correct term) is lowest in the ACC at 46.4 percent.
"Our margin of error is so small," coach Brian Gregory said. "You have to make all your free throws. Every shot around the basket, you can't come away empty. You need to finish all those and then on the other end, you've got to get one or two more stops."
2. Not a great home-court environment, not too surprising given the game time (9 p.m.) and opponent. The announced crowd was 5,009, which wasn't very reflective of who was actually in the building. Further, Tech wasn't playing well, so fans were either quiet or getting on Tech players, some of them rather pointedly. At one point, Miami coach Jim Larranaga yelled at one of the officials to complain about the fact that his team had yet to shoot a free throw 27 minutes into the game, and it seemed like the whole arena could hear him.
3. A couple positives from Tuesday: Tech out-rebounded Miami and turned the ball over eight times after a 22-turnover game against Clemson. Forward Julian Royal had 11 points (on 5-for-7 shooting) with five rebounds. Gregory noted his improvement and his soft shooting touch from the perimeter. He should get some more shots on pick-and-pop plays.
"Our guards are going to have to be able to look for and him on some of that stuff because he's proven he can make those shots now," Gregory said.
4. Tech has lost four in a row and it's not exactly a leap of faith to say it could run to six. The Jackets' next two are at No. 7 North Carolina and at No. 23 Florida State. However, the schedule softens considerably in the second half, starting with a home game with Boston College Feb. 4, an eminently winnable game. Of the final eight games, there's only one game against a team with a winning ACC record (N.C. State).
This isn't exactly a bold prediction, but I think it'll go better than this first stretch has so long as the team doesn't falter. The Jackets are playing hard and for the most part defending well, which will keep them in most games. At some point, that will coincide with better shooting games.
"You've just got to keep doing things like [rebounding well] and eventually more good things will happen," Gregory said.

GT basketball will significantly improve if CBG is strongly supported for 4-5 years. Here is why:
1. He knows how to coach and recruit.
2. Atlanta is an attractive place to go to school for African-American men.
3. The new basketball complex will make all the difference in the world for effort and energy level. Emotion makes a real difference in basketball, especially on defense. No crowd support last night.
4. This year's team does not have the talent or depth to win in the ACC. Too many guys have to do things of which they are not capable:
– Ufofia is a 2-guard, not a point.
– Rice is an "instant offense" 6th man, not a "star player."
– Holsey is not big enough to play power forward.
– Miller is ACC calibre on defense, especially away from the basket. Below average offensively.
– Royal will be ACC calibre starter as a 3-4 man, NEXT year.
– Morris has athletic ability but seems to be having a crisis in confidence.
– Reed, Hicks, Jordan do not have ACC levil ability; would be practice players on other ACC teams.
GT will be a veteran team with an infusion of good young talent playing in a brand new facility next year. They should be competitive and could be good if Udofia and Rice accept their roles as senior leaders. The only negative is that there is no true point guard in sight.

good things happen when you attack the basket, coach. No inside game at all and no one is driving to the goal. Offense is pitiful.

January 25th, 2012

William, your assessment looks pretty accurate there. I think Tech will rebound, but it's not going to happen against NC or FSU anytime soon, but I'll watch and root them on. The only thing that bothers me is Udofia's erractic play at times. Don't get me wrong, he has good pontential, but sometimes on the fast break you sould pull up before making a boneheaded decision and a following offensive foul. Rice needs to practice free throw shooting, that has cost us in several games and hopefully is only a follow over from the Hewitt days where Tech never shot free throws, ever. Tech will get better.
I really like Daniel Miller's play. He plays with good consistency and seems to be the rock that Tech needs on the inside.
January 25th, 2012

These are Hewitt's recruits. I didn't expect much this year. Apparently, their being able to shoot the ball through the hoop was not a prereq for Hewitt recruiting them. CPG will get recruits that can score. Bank on it. PS: we did score 22 in the 1st half . . . up from the 18 or 19 we typically score lol.
January 25th, 2012
12:02 pm
Thanks for your hard work Ken. Sitting through last night should draw hazard pay.
I would not say any game is eminently winnable at this point. Maybe we should at least be competitive against BC. But hell, we should have been competitive against Miami. I think the atmosphere makes it really tough, but the guys and CBG have to fight through that.
I know CBG has some decent recruits coming in but in college ball, and really in all bball, without a good PG and guys that can shoot the outside J, your offense is going to struggle. Are any of the new recruits PGs?
We haven't had a decent PG since J.Jack left.

Just listened/watched the post game press conference. At least CBG isn't making any excuses or lamenting the lack of a home court environment.
But poor Glen Rice had to sit through the whole presser and then take a few obligatory questions. As I stated on the other blog, he looks like a guy wondering how/why he ended up in this place. It's nothing he's ever said, just my reading of his demeanor. I can't blame the guy because I'm sure it's not what he thought he was signing up for 3 years ago.
But hey, as WC stated, things will improve. Right? Hello? Anybody?

I'm sorry by Brian Gregory Hewitt is not a good coach! I am tired of watching the lack of post play from Daniel Miller and Kameon Holsey. The guard brings the ball into the front court and then passes to the center/forward at the top of the key. This play is run over and over and over again. Miller and Holsey need to be in the post and get position in the post. If necessary, please send me a 2 million dollar check and I will gladly teach this. Free throw shooting is abysmal as usual. I can go on and on. These players have talent! The coach is to blame. Brian Gregory SUCKS and GT baskeball looks like toast to me. 15 years to recover from what I see!

What's the deal with a 9:00 tipoff? Sorry folks, but you are not going to get anyone to drive downtown on a weeknight at that hour to watch a team struggle. I may sound like a fair-weather fan, but those are just the facts.
Everyone knew this would be a tough season in multiple respects. That is playing out. I am concerned about the coaching offensively – which was a stated concern when Gregory was hired. I do think he is doing his best with the cards he was dealt, but still not a lot of foundation to build on right now.

January 25th, 2012

I have to agree with William Casey. GT doesn't have the players – especially at guard
January 25th, 2012
2:13 pm
Unless the performance of this team changes dramatically, the new coach won't last past next year. Regardless of who did the recruiting, a coach should be able to convince Mr. Rice that it is a team game. A team game does not include uncontrolled plowing toward the basket. I watched Clemson and Miami play last week and thought they were so sloppy with ball handling that Tech could handle them easily. Boy, was I fooled. Tech is not disciplined in their approach to the game and that is coaching, not recruiting, or "new guy", etc.
January 25th, 2012
2:21 pm
William, you must work in the Tech athletic dept. You are so right on. Nothing for me to add except you have to teach Miller to go to his left under the basket with a little hook shot-i.e. Kareem a. Jabbar.
January 25th, 2012

Atlanta would be a good place for any players if they are good!!!
Can we score 50 in a game! Make free throws?
January 25th, 2012
3:51 pm
William Casey gives a good analysis above on the first post. The biggest threat at this point is that the team gives up. They just need to keep playing hard. The guy that worries me the most is Morris. He really looks down. I know he has talent but he just isn't playing well. I predict 12 wins. Next year 16 or 17 wins. After that, we'll see. Not having an experienced talented true point guard until 3 years from now is what will hold us back. Shumpert would have made all the difference.
January 25th, 2012
4:07 pm
Buzzoff be careful you are about to fall off the deep end.
This team has no "go to" guy. We are playing with a team full of role players and guys that wouldn't get minutes in normal circumstances. Rice is trying to carry the team, but he soesn't have the talent. At this time, he is the best we have. The great thing about basketball is that it only takes a couple of players to make a big difference. I know, I used to go to games before Price & Salley showed up. So, don't give me 15 years to recover. That's crazy.
As for CBG, I like what I see. He has the team playing hard and when you are overmatched, that is all you can ask. Coaches have little impact on free throw shooting. That is a player/talent thing. I coached for years, and you can practice for hours on eand without much improvement. As for recruiting, he seems to be having an immediate impact on the top players. I feel beter about him now, than when he was hired. I have a lot of respect for Jay Williams and he had good things to say about CBG and the future of the team and I agree. Everythings going to be alright.
January 25th, 2012
4:20 pm
@BUZZOFF: Sorry, I know that I shouldn't feed trolls who have nothing to offer, but I want SOLUTIONS rather than "these guys suck" commentry. Just out of curiosity, how many games have you been paid to coach? Your withering insights are astounding. You are wrong. GT will be NIT candidates next year and on the NCAA bubble in 2013-14. Basketball programs take some time to build (Coach K & Bobby Cremins in the 80's are examples.) It's especially difficult when the switch is from a "CEO" type coach (CPH) to a hands-on disciplinarian like CBG.
January 25th, 2012
4:22 pm
January 25th, 2012
5:09 pm
CBG knows how to coach? Are you kidding me? Have you actually seen Tech play this year? Our offense is terrible. CBG could let them play street ball and they'll score more than 20 points in a half. I do not care what players CBG has, they're Division 1 basketball players. I'm sorry but there is no reason why we should lose to Mercer and other Division III schools……NO REASON. CBG better get to it soon or he'll be on the next Greyhound out of Atlanta. A new stadium is not going to boost our level of play – that a fact!
January 25th, 2012

Go Jackets and don't give up! We were so close to beating Clemmons there at the end.

@William Casey….continue smokin' your crack pipe if you want to…Brian Gregory Hewitt is a horrible coach and is way overpaid for his services…The offense is horrible, the defense is horrible, the team is the worst I have ever seen…we play with our bigs outside, the guards don't penetrate and kick it out and everything is a pick and roll (or stand and watch)..how hard is that to teach? This team will not win 10 games!!! How is that better than last year? There is absolutely no improvement in this team. None..Zilcho…Nada!!! A good coach gets his team to improve! This team gets worse and worse…GT will not win 10 games again next year or any year again with this garbage! GT SUCKS!!!!
January 25th, 2012
5:19 pm
@GT Girl – send some of your dresses and high heels to Coach Gregory-Hewitt….he is a better cheerleader than coach. GT has a pathetic excuse for a sports program!! Barely got beat by Clemson in basketball? Please get back to the laundry room!
January 25th, 2012
5:21 pm
1. Feed the POST!!!! Basketball should be played inside out and not outside in.
2. Have the 4-5 set slip screens for each other. Post players need to work the "inner triangle" (rotating from both blocks and free throw line while setting screens for team mate).
3. Practice free throw shooting. Better yet, practice shooting all together. Practice shooting from the elbows, short corner, 3 point line(top, wing and corner) and catch and shoot off of picks.
4. Work harder on defense to get turnovers and that will lead to easy layups. Or should I say, "should lead to easy layups"?
5. Work as a team. Tie them to a rope and get them to move as a unit.
January 25th, 2012
5:45 pm
I did not understand why the announcers kept saying rice should drive more to get to the foul line, and when they were calling for it he was1 for 5. I thought if the game got close, Miami would do a hack-a-shaq (insert rice here). We lost to Clemson by 2 and ice was 4 for ten.
As somebody earlier said, make free throws and quit launching NBA 3 pointers.
January 25th, 2012

@ROCHESTER JACKET: Thanks, you offer some solutions and that is refreshing. I suspect that some of them are being implemented, though there are only flashes of results. Bad basketball habits (i.e.- AAU basketball) are hard to break. Also, feeding the post requires a real point guard. They ARE trying. Miller gets LOTS more touches this year.
@BUZOFF: I ask again, how many games have you been paid to coach? All you do is rant.
January 26th, 2012
6:06 am
CPJ needs to get his big headed egotistical butt fired. After reading his latest story I'm fuming. No coaching changes, not even trying to recruit a kicker and last but not least his Godlike mentality. He might as well mimic that Little Rock,AR HS coach who own side kicks every time. With our putrid kicker your only talking about giving up 10 yds. Plus you might even recover a few,(doubtful beings he's over specail teams). Extra bonus keeping Groh's dismal defense off the field. If it fails least he has resume footage for his next coaching job in Pop Warner, (where his offense belongs).

January 26th, 2012

Gotta give CBG the benefit of a doubt at this point. Bu right now this team is absolutely awful on offense. Whatever Gregory is trying to teach on offense either the players aren't buying it, or it's the wrong thing.
January 26th, 2012
3:38 pm
Give me $500K/year and I'll turn the team around. Better yet, give me $250K/year and I'll have them running better offense than CBG. The offense is so bad they'll actually do better if they would play street ball. CBG, look on Youtube or google to see how an offense should be ran. Dribble drive penetration and then kick it out for a jump shot, maybe? How about looking at the more successful teams in the ACC and college basketball and mimic their offense? If you're not going to score, how about running the four corners and limit the opposing team touches? Use every second of the shot clock and I would love to see the defense show different looks throughout the game.

After Jeff Hardy was "written off" on last night's TNA iMPACT! Wrestling broadcast, there has been a lot of speculation that he may follow A.J. Styles, Hulk Hogan and others into free agency. Hardy is not leaving the company however; he was written out of TV because the next set of iMPACT! tapings will be overseas in 2014 and Hardy has work visa issues that prevent him going with them.
TNA released the following #IMPACT365 video following last night's iMPACT! broadcast:

High Country Baptist Church currently meets in the facilities of Colorado Springs Charter Academy.
HCBC exists for one major purpose: to honor Jesus Christ through knowing God and making Him known. In this mission, we are guided by two fundamental principles.
- Loving God with all of our heart, and
- Loving our neighbor as ourselves
As these principles are consistently lived out, we believe that we will see the following things happen in our community:
- True teaching from and about the Bible, the Word of God
- Genuine worship of the one true and living God who created all things
- A community of believers knit together with heart-level relationships, which is being changed to live like Jesus Christ
- Strong families with godly fathers who lead their families to love and serve the Lord in and through the church
- Lives transformed by the power of the good news of Jesus Christ
What is High Country Baptist Church Like?
When you visit HCBC, you can expect to find a small congregation of friendly folks who are striving to follow Jesus Christ. Because we have a high view of the holiness of God, our worship services are reverent but joyful. We sing great hymns, pray together, and read and preach God's Word, the Bible. We also share the Lord's Supper together each week, and we follow our morning meeting with a fellowship meal.
We have many young children, and we love to have them worship the Lord with us in our services. In today's "Christian culture" this has become known as "Family Integrated Church," however, we believe that since this is the way the Church originally met, we tend to shy away from labeling ourselves as a "Family Integrated Church." In fact, we tend to shy away from most "agenda-driven" labels because we want to be known as an assembly of believers who are striving to know God and serve Him rather than a company which is rallying around a particular movement. Movements come and go, but God and His Word will last forever.
But… What Do We Believe At High Country Baptist Church?
What a church believes and practices is of crucial importance, and we want you to know upfront what the beliefs and practices are at High Country Baptist Church.

Springfield – Ward 6 Alderman Cory Jobe is accused of battery.
Police reports show a neighbor confronted Jobe over a fence that was torn down. The argument got heated then the woman claims Jobe pushed her down.
Jobe, however, says it was a misunderstanding.
He says he was going to the alley to put out garbage and she was in the way of the fence, so he opened the gate and she fell down. Police say between the two addresses there have been 11 service calls in the past five years.
No charges were filed.
Evangelist Franklin Graham prayed on a sidewalk outside the Pentagon Thursday after his invitation to a prayer service inside was withdrawn because of comments that insulted people of other religions. More>>
