|California gets back to basics before Big Game
|Written by Admin
|Wednesday, 28 November 2007 00:24
So in a week previously reserved for holiday relaxation and resting up for Saturday's 110th Big Game against Stanford, Tedford put the Golden Bears through remedial classes in Football 101.
``It's almost like training camp again,'' safety Thomas DeCoud said. ``It's back to the start, to Square One, and we'll go from there.''
The simple drills are Tedford's last-ditch attempt to restore the vigor to a Cal (6-5, 3-5 Pac-10) squad that has plummeted from the heights of the national polls to the lowest abyss of his coaching staff's six seasons in Berkeley.
While their fellow Cal students made plans to get away last week, the Bears were hard at work in quiet Strawberry Canyon on salvaging what's left of their season. Cal still could finish with a rivalry victory, a minor bowl appearance and a measure of pride - but there's still no guarantee they'll leave the 2007 season with any of the three.
Cal is likely to land in San Francisco's Emerald Bowl with a sixth straight win over the Cardinal (3-8, 2-6), but an upset loss might even push the Bears out of the bowl picture altogether.
Tailback Justin Forsett, the Pac-10's leading rusher and one of the Bears' few bright spots, would prefer to avoid any uncertainty about Cal's fifth straight postseason appearance.
``We've been struggling, but this team always has heart,'' said Forsett, who leads the conference with 13 rushing touchdowns and 119.1 yards per game. ``It doesn't matter what game it is, or what we're playing for. We come out and play like we're undefeated.''
Forsett's faith in his teammates is admirable, but it hasn't been rewarded in recent weeks. Cal's six-game skid includes only a three-point win over Washington State surrounded by five losses of varying embarrassment value.
Tedford said he was proud of his players after a narrow defeat against USC, but the coach had lost that loving feeling by the time Cal was embarrassed by the Huskies in Seattle. The calm, cerebral Cal mastermind could be heard yelling at his team through the doors of the visitors' locker room in Husky Stadium in an outburst that surprised even his seniors.
``We knew what he was saying was the truth,'' Forsett said. ``He doesn't really show too much emotion most times. He's not really a yell-in-your-face type of guy. Nobody likes to hear that, but we needed to talk about it. Then we came back to work at home, and we went back to the little things that got away from us.''
The Bears are back at work this week on a game plan to beat the Cardinal, who also have lost five of six since their astonishing win over USC. Cal should have major advantages at most positions, but after the tribulations of the season's second half, Tedford isn't taking anything for granted.
``I can guarantee you it's not from a lack of effort,'' Tedford said. ``I have a lot of respect for our players, and it hurts me for the players more than anything. They're the guys who have lifted all the weights and done all the running. It's our job to put them in a place to be successful. Hopefully, we're doing that this week.''

The NFL Draft is less than two months away, which means there is plenty of debate regarding who the best NFL prospects are and where they should be drafted. The debate is particularly interesting this year, as the 2013 draft class is deep, but there aren't too many players who have clearly separated themselves as the top of the class.
Here we have my rankings for the quarterbacks who are eligible for the 2013 NFL Draft. I can't say I love any of these guys on tape, but each of them do have certain impressive qualities that could get NFL scouts excited.
1. Geno Smith (West Virginia): Smith is topping most analysts' quarterback rankings these days, so this should come as no surprise. He has a strong, accurate arm and can extend the play with good pocket presence and mobility. He is able to effectively throw on the run. His draft stock dropped due to a 2012 midseason slump - I think he sometimes tries to do too much when his team is losing, trying to cut the deficit on one single play. There's not much to dislike about Smith, but I have to say that he didn't truly blow me away like some of the other top quarterback prospects of the past few years.
2. Matt Barkley (USC): There is a lot of concern over Barkley's arm strength, but I still think he could be a great fit in the right system. Barkley is exceptionally accurate and makes quick, smart decisions with the football. He can make up for his weak arm by looking off coverage and throwing his receivers open. I think his 15 interceptions in 2012 were in large part due to a poor offensive line. Barkley could excel in the NFL as a game manager who is not asked to lead his team to victory by himself. Think of Alex Smith and his 104.1 quarterback rating with the 49ers in 2012 - I'm not saying Barkley will definitely put up numbers like that, but that is the type of quarterback he could be.
3. EJ Manuel (Florida State): When I started watching tape of this kid, I couldn't believe that I hadn't been hearing more about him. He's got Cam Newton type size at 6'5'' 237 (Newton is 6'5'' 248, and you can expect Manuel to get bigger as a pro), and great athleticism (ran a 4.65 forty-yard dash at the combine). He displayed great accuracy in 2012 with a clean, quick throwing motion. He can put delicate touch on his passes or zip the ball into a tight window. He can extend the play by eluding defenders or bouncing off tackles. Ten years from now, I think there's a chance that we're saying Manuel was the best quarterback in this draft.
4. Tyler Wilson (Arkansas): Ranking Wilson was tough, because terrible offensive line play kept him from showcasing his elite arm. He also didn't have much in the way of receiving weapons outside of Cobi Hamilton. Even so, Wilson managed to put up solid numbers, and displayed impressive poise when defenders got in his grill immediately after taking the snap. He has proven that he is not afraid to step into his throws, even if that means taking a big hit. He has also developed some solid escape skills thanks to the constant pressure he faced. And once again, he has an elite arm.
5. Ryan Nassib (Syracuse): Here we've got another gunslinger type in Nassib. He's the type that can make any throw, but leave you scratching your head as to why he just sailed an easy one. Part of that may be due to his insistence on always rocketing his passes - he'll need to learn when to use some touch as a pro. He's composed in the pocket and has deceptive athleticism. He also has more experience taking snaps from under center than most of the other quarterback prospects.
6. Landry Jones (Oklahoma): The best traits for Jones are his size and his arm. At 6'4'' with a high release point, Jones can see down the field and get his throws over the hands of defensive linemen. He can make impressive throws into tight windows, but sometimes tries to get throws into too tight of windows. His decision making is the biggest area of concern, as he'll give you a "what were you thinking?" moment every now and then. His mobility is also a concern. He is no threat to take off and run (slowest forty time of all quarterbacks at the combine), but can sometimes make subtle moves in the pocket to buy time. As far as how "NFL-ready" these quarterbacks are, there's a big drop off between Nassib and Jones.
7. Zac Dysert (Miami (Ohio)): I know a lot of us are sick of the word "potential," but that's exactly why I ranked Dysert here. I've seen him make some incredible throws - perfectly accurate passes with high velocity thrown off-balance while being hit. I've also seen him throw some easy short yardage passes completely off target. What Dysert obviously needs to do is get more consistent, but if he can do that, he'll have a great shot at being a very effective pro. My favorite trait of Dysert is his ability to extend the play by scrambling and shaking defenders, then slinging the ball while on the run.
8. Mike Glennon (NC State): Glennon is very high on some people's lists because of his strong arm that is capable of making all sorts of throws. I agree that Glennon's arm is impressive on tape, but his arm has nothing to do with why I have him ranked this low. Glennon displays some of the qualities that have caused Blaine Gabbert to struggle as a pro. He's not willing to step up into the pocket to make throws, and he often throws off his back foot to avoid a hit, which then leads to an inaccurate pass. He has slow feet and struggles to extend the play. When the pass rush comes consistently, he gets flustered and makes bad decisions. At the next level, NFL defenses will send heavy pressure at Glennon and force him to step up and make throws, but I'm not so sure he can do that. Combine that with the fact that his arm didn't stand out at the combine, and I say he's overrated.
9. Matt Scott (Arizona): Sorry, folks, but this is another player whose ranking is based on potential. Scott only had one full season as the starter for Arizona, and he put up some pretty solid numbers. He can really "wow" you with some of the throws that he makes, displaying a lot of velocity and accuracy. He is also a fantastic athlete who can buy himself time to throw and gash a defense on the ground. He finished top five among quarterbacks in every drill at the combine. While he's shown plenty of talent, he's also been very inconsistent with his accuracy and decision making. He's clearly a developmental prospect who is currently far below his very high ceiling. Comparisons to Colin Kaepernick are likely to get a team to reach for him.
10. Tyler Bray (Tennessee): Bray has a strong arm that can be quite accurate at times, but that's just about all there is to like about him. He has an elongated, Byron Leftwich type throwing motion. He frequently fades away from his throws to avoid a hit, and even does it sometimes when there is no pressure. He also gets very flustered when facing pressure, which forces him to make bad decisions. He certainly has an NFL-caliber arm, so he should get drafted in hopes that he can improve his footwork and decision making.

I've read through a bunch of experiences and it helped me get more informed about a chin implant procedure. It was super helpful so here are some details on my experience with a chin implant procedure and recovery.
My chin is on the smallish side, and I've always been a bit self-conscience about it. I would wear my hair down more often instead of back in a bun or ponytail to conceal my chin. Sometimes, l would even stick out my jaw, like around an attractive guy or something. That's really silly when I think about it. When looking at pictures of my profile or from a side angle, I did not like what I saw. During the winter-time, I liked wearing turtlenecks because I felt it made my chin look better.
When I felt I had the extra funds, I decided to go ahead with the procedure. I went to three doctors. Quotes ranged from $2.400 to $4,300. I chose the middle-of-the-road doctor because had the most thorough consultation, only does facial plastic surgery, board certified, and has been doing it for 20 years.
Although he only quoted iv sedation, I emailed his office and asked if was possible to do it under local. He agreed and it was a cost savings of $750. In retrospect, I'm not sure if I would make that choice again.
Medium size implant placed under the chin.
The procedure:
I'm going to go into a bit of detail here because I wasn't able to find this information when searching online, and I hope others will find it helpful.
Local and valium only for a chin implant surgery is what I chose. I had watched youtube videos of the surgery and felt I knew what to expect. I think I'm pretty tough and not a complainer. I had my wisdom teeth extracted and a cervical surgery done under just local. I think I have a high pain tolerance.
I arrived at the office and was given valium. It helped me be slightly less anxious and a bit sleepy, but I felt very much sober and aware. Honestly, I don't think it had much of an effect. I was taken to the room and sat down in a chair. I kept on all my clothes and shoes. (I thought I might need to get undressed, but that wasn't the case.) The nurse draped some blue cloths over my chest and head, cleaned the chin area, then the doctor came in, measured my chin and drew a line down the middle, and gave me about 10 shots to numb the area. Ten more minutes or so passed for the numbing to take effect, then it was time.
The chair was positioned back and light turned on. At this point, I closed my eyes and did not open them again until I was stitched up. Everything was numb. There was no real pain throughout, but I was very much aware of what was happening.
I felt the incision and pressure from opening the incision. There was a burnt smell and electrical shocks from the cauterization. The electrical shocks kinda hurt. Then there was scraping against to the bone to create a pocket. I did not realize how aggressive and loud this part was going to be. I was as still as I could be but the scraping kept pushing my head a bit to the side. The nurse held my head, and I tried to keep my bottom jaw as stiff as possible so the doctor could get could traction. The bone-scraping sound and vibration were the worse part and trying to keep my jaw still. At this point, I wondered to myself, "what was I thinking?"
Finally, the pockets were created (I say it took about 5 min) one side of the implant was pushed in and then the other side, I could feel the implant being inserted, especially at the edges of the implant where it was less numb. Once again, no real pain, but freaky feeling.
The doctor used his hand to mold the implant in place then began sticking me up. Finally! I felt much better, relaxed, and opened my eyes while he was stitching. They sat me up, put on a bandage, and had me sit for a few minutes. I felt so relieved it was over and ready to get off the chair!
Now, I want to say this was say this is just my experience, not everyone will have the same. There was no real pain throughout, but lots of pressure, movement, and sound. I'm glad I saved the money but not so sure I would do it again. (In a month from now, I will probably say the opposite, but right now it's fresh in my mind.) I also wish I had known more of what to expect before hand - especially the bone scraping part.
Later that day:
It took about 3 hours after surgery before the pharmacy had the pain pills ready, so I was feeling intense pain after the numbness wore off. Finally, the pharmacy called, and I took the pain pills. I felt better and slept for the night.
1st day after surgery:
I feel sore and tight, but not too bad. My chin is completely numb and bottom lip slightly numb. Can't open my mouth too wide. Eating soft foods. Feel well enough that I took off the bandages briefly and went to the grocery store for a few things. I like what I see in my profile. I'm taking antibiotics, pain pills, and arnica montana (prescribed by the dr) along with vitamin C (studies show it helps wound healing and dr ok'd me taking it.) I'm also icing regularly. I have an extra-wide headband that I place over the chin wrap and slip the ice bags in there, so I don't have to hold them against my face. An extra chin wrap would also work (so for those getting the surgery, maybe ask for an extra wrap.)
2nd day:
Swelling is worse. I have chipmunk cheeks now. Chin still completely numb. Pain is tolerable. Eating soft foods, and sleeping on my back on 3 pillows. Feeling okay and went to Target. Brushing my teeth is a bit difficult because I can't open my mouth fully.
3rd day:
Took a bath for the first time since surgery. Still very sore and swollen. Chin is numb. I'm slightly concerned about the numbness and hope to have some sensation coming back soon. First "social" day when I went to my sister's house and talked and smiled more in two hours than I have in the last 3 days. All the talking and smiling has made me sore. Back to being a hermit for another day.
4th day:
Swelling and pain is improving. Chin still numb. I return to work tomorrow and a bit nervous about that. I only told my direct supervisor what I was doing. I hope no one notices and asks about it. I do not want to lie. My plan is to wear glasses (I wear contacts 95% of the time) so hopefully the glasses will distract. Also, because my chin and bottom lip are numb, I talk a little funny and have to concentrate on articulating my words. I will not be wearing any bandages, but put them on when I get home. I plan to lay low at work.
Will update and post more pictures after the swelling goes down
1 week:
No one noticed at work, whew! Or at least, if they did notice, they were polite enough not didn't say anything. Stitches removed today. Swelling improved (but still slightly swollen) and did get some yellowish bruising under my chin around day 5 which continues today. Chin still very numb.
11 days
Here are some updated pictures. Smiling in the pictures so my chin seems to pop a bit more. When not smiling, it's smaller. At times I wonder if I should have gone with a large instead of medium implant. I'm pleasantly surprised how my chin is slightly longer from the front. I think it balances my face better. My mouth looks a bit smaller than before. I'm okay with that. Swelling is mostly gone but still so numb! I'm tell myself to be patient and the numbness will eventually go away.

Has the numbness gone away?

Yeah, the bone scraping was too much. I remember thinking, if this keeps going on like this, bone fragments are going to fly up and ping on my face. ugh. Looking back, it's funny but at the time, not so much.

Seems like you and I are some of the few who took this route. Scary feeling for sure. It makes you understand why the recovery time is needed and swelling happen though.

Nice results! I can't believe you did it under local anesthesia. I would freak out! I was under "Twlight sedation" and I was knocked out in 1 minute...I did not hear or feel anything going on..such a bizarre feeling. Because they say "twlight" you are slightly aware----well I was not Lol. I woke up and didn't even know what happend. I don't even remember getting dressed afterwards or leaving. So weird! Those drugs are intense. (I was so worried about having those drugs but everything went fine). I am day 1 after my surgery and I do notice some swelling around my cheeks/jawline now which was not present yesterday. Mine still feels tight and stiff as well. I try to smile but it looks weird since it is stiff. It's a weird feeling having numbness in your chin. I hope this goes away soon. I want to eat normally. I have been eating mash potatoes and spaghettios. I'm craving a burger or a steak but can't open my mouth that wide or chew much =/ My procedure costed $2,500 for the surgeon fee and then the surgery center operating fee was $799 and $250 for anesthesia which was total $1,049. I hope these next few days go by quickly so my face feels back to normal.

I also noticed a new small bruise on the left side possibly where the wing of the implant is which is normal for the first couple days. I see my surgeon tomorrow to take off the bandage and then I will see what it fully looks like.

I had a steak on day 3 but don't think I could have opened wide enough for a burger.

I read through your postings and saw you just got it done. Great improvement! I think a large was best for you. I know what you mean about the double-chin when looking down. I always hated that, too. Last night, while laying in bed, I turned on my laptop and caught my reflection in the monitor and no double-chin! That was cool.

Yeah sucks! I have yet to eat a steak or burger. Maybe this weekend since all my stiffness is almost gone :)

Thimbers- Thank you! It is cool finally seeing a nice defined chin. Every time I pass a mirror I glance at my chin now haha :)

Good details thanks for sharing keep posting pics :) did you have noticible bruising

Slight yellowish bruising under my chin around day 5, but can't really see it unless I left up my head.

Great review! i love the details! thanks for telling your story, from your photos u look great! are u happy? I also try and stick out my chin around pretty lady's. Kind regards David

I'm happy I did it, wish I had done it sooner when I was in my 20's, have some slight critiques but will hold off judgement until the swelling goes down.
- Reply
I think looking at your photos, your chin/face seems more balance if i was you i would be over the moon with the results, not had it done but you must be proud of yourself going through that road of surgery and the outcome. Have you notice your is confidence higher? Kind regards David

Very nice review. I looked crazy swollen on day 3 as well. I have a dimple in my chin and I swear it looked like an ass on my face. Lol. Much better now that its day 7. I did it the same as you (minus the valium). The bone scraping is very intense and made me think I had goofed as well. If I were to do it again Id still do it that way. Pain wasn't bad at all but the scraping is very intense.

Sounds intense! I'm glad I didn't know anything going on in my procedure.

The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals' ruling Friday that Obamacare's individual mandate is unconstitutional is only part of the story. The rest of the story, with maybe the biggest impact, is that the court would let the rest of the law stand without the mandate.
And allowing that to happen could bankrupt the private health insurance industry — and put on the track to full-blown socialized medicine — even faster than an intact Obamacare threatens to do.
Everyone, from the Obama administration to the 26 states, including Georgia, that brought this lawsuit, agrees that the individual mandate is the key to the law because it is the mechanism for making people buy insurance before they become sick. The administration argues this is a reason for keeping the entire law intact; the states argue this is a reason for throwing out the entire law.
But unlike District Judge Roger Vinson, the appellate court decided that Congress didn't have to include a "severability clause" for the law to survive even if one of its components were struck down:
Supreme Court precedent confirms that the "ultimate determination of severability will rarely turn on the presence or absence of such a clause." … Rather, "Congress' silence is just that — silence — and does not raise a presumption against severability."
The court did examine two particular reforms to see if they should go out along with the mandate — noting that, without the mandate, the "guaranteed issue" and the ban on denials based on pre-existing conditions could "have significant negative effects on the business costs of insurers." But it deferred to Congress nevertheless:
Just because the invalidation of the individual mandate may render these provisions less desirable, it does not ineluctably follow that Congress would find the two reforms so undesirable without the mandate as to prefer not enacting them at all. The fact that one provision may have an impact on another provision is not enough to warrant the inference that the provisions are inseverable. (italics original)
That may well be the right judicial decision. But it's a policy disaster in the making.
At The Atlantic, Megan McArdle puts it this way:
Presumably, the insurance market across the United States [would end] up looking a lot like New York's market, where during the debate over health care reform it was reported that the cost of the average family policy in the individual market was over $4,000 a month. That's because New York has the other features of Obamacare — community rating and guaranteed issue — without the mandate. The result was that all the healthy people dropped out of the pool, leaving a few very sick people to buy insurance.
There's a slight difference though: the government is going to subsidize individuals in the private market. If the subsidies keep pace with the cost, Obamacare's nominal deficit reduction is going to turn into a gaping hole in the federal budget.
As she goes on to argue, Congress may not have the will to take away the other reforms piecemeal once they've come on line, even if they become financial drains.
All of which is why Republicans in Congress should continue pushing to repeal the entire law and replace it with market-oriented reforms, rather than counting on the courts to set things right.

One more time you are on the wrong side of history. There is no fundamental reason to have private health insurance industry. If the result is, as you predict, their demise, so be it. But you use the usual demagoguery about "socialized medicine." The medical providers would still remain mostly private even if we got a single payer system.

So Kyle I guess the 30 millions people including women and children should wait another 100 years before someone stands up and face this problem. How many Rep President tried reform and put people first?
Thanks President Obama for puting yourself one the line for the under dogs who can not fight big insurance and doctors who care less if you live or die.

So, lets see if I get this: the Bills Individual Mandate clause is being challenged on the premise its unconstitutional to require individuals to pay, yet this is identical in nature to requiring auto insurance,
so, as usual the politicians have no consistency to their logic, and grasp whatever is handy to ramrod rules through, or shoot them down depending – I say abolish auto insurance – we can then turn back the clock to a "simpler time"
August 12th, 2011
6:07 pm
Gm – Of what 30 millions people do you refer? Who has waited 100 years for someone to face what problem? Not trying to be funny, just trying to understand where you're coming from and where you're going with your argument.
Esperenza- This is NOT identical in nature to requiring auto insurance. Millions of people do not own a car, do not drive, and therefore are not required to purchase auto insurance.
August 12th, 2011
6:14 pm
I repeat what I said earlier on the last column.
Note: The Constitution says what the Supreme Court says it says, nothing more and nothing less.
If the Supreme Court says "No Mandate", then that is what the Constitution says.
To date the cases in all Circuit Courts have revolved around the Commerce Clause. And to date one Circuit Court says mandate is OK, another says "no mandate" and the third has yet to rule.
The Roberts court is a big supporter of an expanded Commerce Clause. So one would not be surprised if they said OK to the expanded Commerce Clause "mandate".
But this is also a big "political case" and the Court is not immune to politics.
The 26 states appealed based on the Commerce Clause. Any other arguments are beside the point until the Supreme Court rules. And the Supreme Court can use any argument it chooses, just so there are 5 votes.
Obamacare may be the worst disaster to hit the USA in over 200 years. But if it is Constitutional, per the Supreme Court, then it is Constitutional.
Then you look to Congress to rescind it.
And if Congress can rescind Obamacare and the Prescription Drug mess, that is over $40 trillion in spending cuts.
August 12th, 2011
6:15 pm
So, let's pass a new law: Hospitals and doctors do not have to treat you if you cannot pay. Then watch everyone buy insurance. It's harsh, but it would work. Right now hospitals are required to treat anyone who walks in their door. This is a huge factor in the increase of medical costs for all of us.
August 12th, 2011
6:19 pm
Tman @6:07 pm: "Millions of people do not own a car, do not drive, and therefore are not required to purchase auto insurance."
True. And people who are dead or have not been born would not be required to buy health isurance.

If the courts can't straighten out this mess, then it is time to start over.
This is just one more thing that people want for FREE. Only it is is not free. Every taxpayer in America will be paying for it while the government is already trillions in debt. Just add a couple of more trillions and give everybody FREE healthcare.
When Americans forgot independence and went for DEPENDENCE, then the USA went into debt. The government has become the citizen babysitter. Only we cannot pay for it.
There are hospitals and clinics all over this country for the poor. Drug companies offer help in getting meds. The few who can't get help will always need help. They usually do not take advantage of what is offered.
I hope the court throws out this entire mess called ObamaCare. It will help no one but will be detrimental moneywise to almost everyone. No one will be healthy if we incur any more debt which is now rising in unprecented quantities. It's got to stop.

Re: All of which is why Republicans in Congress should continue pushing to repeal the entire law and replace it with market-oriented reforms, rather than counting on the courts to set things right.
Unfortunately any so call market-oriented reforms Republicans offer will be maliciously and intentionally designed to benefit the insurance companies and enhance their profits at the financial expense and the lives of their customers.
August 12th, 2011

Tman @6:26 pm:
The fallacy of your car insurance argument is that it tries to show the car insurance payment as a fee for owning or driving a car. It is not, it is a compulsory insurance in case of an accident, to make sure that the damage is paid. Thus the equivalent of driving a car is living. The purpose of the health insurance is to make sure that the medical bills are paid. Unless you want to commit suicide you do not have a choice to live without a danger of accident or injury.

David Green,
Republicans do not maliciously and intentionally design to benefit insurance companies. Insurance companies must make a profit like any other business that survives but to call that malicious covers more than Republicans.
Your slanted opinion is what ruins any discussion. ObamaCare has too many fallacies in it. It is not greed by Republicans but the presence of a flawed policy that should trouble everyone.
August 12th, 2011

Oh happy day!!! Finally, despite the devastating economic effect of policy that financially forces Americans to use the E.R. for primary healthcare, a precedent has been set that possibly paves the way to freedom from the shackles of homeowners insurance and car insurance! YES!!!!!

Oh, man. If we have to depend on Congress to fix a bad situation, we are really screwed.

Here is what will happen if the individual mandate is repealed: things will hum along fine for a few years at first, and the system will seem to be working okay.
At some point there will be some shock that causes insurance prices to rise (ie. the baby boomers get to the point where they require a large amount of expensive healthcare). Insurance prices start going up, and healthy people decide stop buying insurance, driving up prices further.
To offset these costs a new class of business will form where, for a flat rate, they will buy insurance for you when you are sick, and cancel it when you are not sick. As people abandon the insurance companies for these intermediaries, health insurance costs spiral upwards until they cost as much as a sick person's medical bills. The intermediaries in turn raise their rates until they cost as much as the insurance companies used to, and we end up back where we started.
August 12th, 2011
7:08 pm
People are again rejected for preexisting conditions, only it's legal because it's the intermediaries are doing the rejecting. Sure you can go to an insurance company and they can't reject you, but since they now cost as much as your medical bills it hardly matters.
August 12th, 2011
7:08 pm
Of course none of this has to happen as long as we keep the individual mandate requiring everyone to have health insurance. I suspect that all of the rabble rousing about the individual mandate is just a sneaky way of rendering the health care bill irrelevant.
August 12th, 2011
7:10 pm
The notion of, regardless of how long we have been doing business a certain way, of "brokering" healthcare as insurance companies do simply sickens me. Do away with the entire insurance industry! Individuals set up accounts with the hospital of choice, family physician of choice, and simply pay them directly, a set fee each month . You get sick, the doc is already paid for. Need surgery, monies paid go to the procedure needed, and perhaps on very expensive surgery's an additional fee is required, . There are MASSIVE amounts of money spent that result in no, none, nada, zilch, improvement of healthcare rendered, and I would contend America's healthcare for Americans is far worse off.

When business profits, it invests. This generally creates more opportunity and more jobs. You need some rich people to take the risk that they do or there would be no private jobs to support the government, and it's dependants. Any of you who are not public sector union employess would be jobless without some rich person or group of persons taking a risk with their own money. Why does everyone comment on this topic without having the slightest clue? Right now, businesses (rich people) are not investing due to a guaranteed loss and certain increase in government regulation, therefore no additional opportunity, and no additional jobs. Please educate yourselves on both sides before commenting (liberals). Maybe you should thank your rich boss for the job instead of complaining about him/her, and his/her investment in you.

Your comparison is worse than between that of apple and orange.
Auto insurance is required because one mustdrive on roads that are owned by the state. That is a matter of securing public safety which is NOT the same as assuring payment of a private debt acquired for medical expenses.
Furthermore, States have the Right to issue driver's licenses, which means the State not the individual, makes all the rules, sets all the terms and conditions in order for the individual to enjoy the privilege NOT THE INDIVIDUAL RIGHT to operate a motor vehicle on any and all roads within the States' jurisdiction. The Right to Live is an endowment bestowed upon all individuals by their creator which is not a conditional privilege grant to them by a State government.
This liberal argument using auto insurance to merit State compulsory healthcare insurance is one of the lamest of incoherent analogizes ever used.

You know time was when only one opinion mattered on things like this, at least until we had a revolution. Those 9 people are probably very well aware of that fact and usually keep all of our opinions in their mind when making their official legal opinions known.
Then again, if enough contrary opinions are strongly held to point of amending the Constitution even those 9 opinions really don't make a shid!
August 12th, 2011

Yes they do Dusty and any claim to the contrary is a lie. For years now I've watched how republicans talk conservative to get elected into office then turn their backs on these who voted them into office to serve the interests of big business in order to pay them back for donating to their campaign fund. World Com – Dick Cheney's connection to Haliburton – the resultant fraud of contractors who did shoddy work in Iraq – the failure of the Bush admin. to properly regulate the banks and wall street that led to the economic collapse in 2008 – tainted food that killed many of our fellow American's because Bush hobbled those responsible for ensuring the safety of the common food supply. All these and more come to mind. The simple fact is that republicans have dirty hands and those conservatives who ignore the many sins of the politicians they support either with their words or votes are just as dirty and morally accountable.
August 12th, 2011

Actually GM capitalists aren't investing in the US as a tried and true means to force Obama to fail and convince the American people to vote him out of office. In other words they are committing Economic Treason against the people of the United States.

Esperanza, you don't get this.
Auto insurance is mandated (however wrongly) because you use the government-provided road system they built. And arguably, there is a public safety component to driving which could come under the control of government.
Health care is not provided by the government, but rather by a private provider, therefore a mandate is un-Constitutional in that regard.
I'm glad I could clear that up for you.
August 12th, 2011

I'd argue the point against assumed wrong in the auto insurance mandate Dave R., otherwise we agree.
August 12th, 2011
8:55 pm
First off Michael the state does not own the roads. The real owners are the citizens who live within that state who have entrusted the state to maintain the roads and to regulate them. Just as our Creator has endowed us with the right to life so has he endowed us with the right to move about freely which the state can not impede without becoming tyrannical. Mandatory Auto insurance was not created by the state to protect the citizens involved in an accident – for that was merely the excuse and the justification to seize a portion of the financial assets of those who need to drive a vehicle in order to take advantage of their natural right to move about freely and redistribute those financial assets into the bank accounts of the insurance companies. In other words the Auto Insurance companies and state politicians have willfully conspired to commit theft. Just as the heath insurance companies in the past have conspired to rob those who bought their policies while healthy only to be denied coverage and/or have their rates raised so high that they couldn't afford to pay it after becoming afflicted with an illness.
August 12th, 2011

"First off Michael the state does not own the roads."
Oh yeah? Try dismantling the road outside your house someday. You'll find out very quickly who owns them.
August 12th, 2011
9:08 pm
First off david green, we citizens are the "real state" so YES "THE STATE" owns the roads. "Freedom of movement" is not solely dependent upon traveling on STATE OWNED ROADS, bad point and poor logic on your part. Argue your point all you want about those greedy insurance companies in cahoots with the pols before the courts see where it gets you, and let me know when you plan to hold that circus – I'll buy a ticket! Maybe two.
And you don't have to buy health insurance at gun point, so how do you think "they" (the insurance companies) are robbing you?
Furthmore, Bush was a liberal.
August 12th, 2011

The reason I'd argue about whether they have the right to do so is through the public safety clause they rely on. I understand it; I just don't necessarily buy into it.

Oh my freakin' God!
Driving isn't a right. Do we get rid of cars and walk because it is how nature intended us to travel? And don't bother to use a horse, because that would be cheating, right?
Instead of mindless hyperbole, why don't you make the case that health care is a right (if you believe it to be), or suggest something different that might be helpful.
August 12th, 2011

So how much of a laughingstock will obozo become? Will he make Dhimmi Karter appear cerebral and as though he has a spine? Will he make Herbert Hoover look like the second coming of Milton Friedman?
After this tragedy/comedy finally plays out, will the nation have a new found respect for Andrew Jackson?
How much more must we endure?
August 12th, 2011
9:28 pm
Personally, I don't think we can do any worse than we're doing now. If the health insurance industry dies a quick death, good riddance. We pay roughly 50% more for health care than countries with "socialized" medicine, we don't cover everyone and we get poor results. I think it's funny that the GOP now has ideas on how to fix the problem. They'd be more believable if they'd come up with it when they had the power to implement it.
August 12th, 2011
9:29 pm
If I read the liberal arugment right. It's a version of damn the constitution, we want to do what we like. Where does that end? What power does not belong to the state. The liberal argument is that the problem confers power to the all important government.
Of course this is all sophmoric nonsense. The constitution is still the supreme authority AND it actually means something. It creates limits that we cannot pass when inconvient. You can't radically expand the power of the government to command citizens to buy a particular service for the rest of their lives without giving the state the power to end freedom of the press and freedom of speech in the same breath.

This is a very springy, light frosting that doesn't leave you in a sugar coma after eating it. My only suggestion is that you make sure you whip the cream to soft peaks, even leaning on the side of hard peaks. I thought I whipped it to soft peaks but then I added the sour cream and it came out very soupy. After chilling it for a few hours I managed to save it.

Gusty winds, hot temperatures and parched rangelands and forests combined to put much of Utah under a "Red Flag" warning through Friday night.
The National Weather Service noted that relative humidity had dipped into single digits in some locales. Northwestern Utah, as well as most of southwestern and southcentral regions of the state, were included within elevated wildfire danger areas.

However, a marked cooling trend — along with isolated rain showers and thunderstorms — could ease the fiery angst come Saturday.
The Wasatch Front, after Friday's forecast for highs in the lower-80s and breezes of 15-25 mph, looked for daytime temperatures in the upper-60s on Saturday. As cloud cover increases over northern Utah, so will chances for precipitation.
Unstable air flows were on tap for southern Utah, too, with steady winds of 20-30 mph and gusts up to 10 mph higher expected into the weekend. High temperatures were to range into the mid- to upper-90s with no rain on the horizon.
The Utah Division of Air Quality hoisted its "yellow," or compromised air quality banners for of the state going into the weekend, though Carbon, Tooele, Uintah and Cache counties earned "green," or healthy air quality ratings.
The Intermountain Allergy & Asthma website's pollen index on Friday was "high" only for grass; all other allergens were low.

For decades, trash was piled up and buried at the landfill off Avon Street just south of Charlottesville near where the jail and Interstate 64 now sit, and some of that trash has been falling into Moore's Creek. But now there are signs of progress, thanks to a new development going in.
The waste was released after water from the creek eroded its edges. Now crews associated with a new shopping center project are cleaning up what had become quite a mess.
Mike Meintzschel lives nearby and has been watching the creek and the dump for a long time and making sure the powers that be know about it. He even made a YouTube video to underline his worries about the trash. Now that work is underway to fix things and crews have pulled hundreds of pounds of refuse out of the water, he's feeling better about the situation.
"They've pulled out nearly 200 tires from the stream bed as well as other metallic objects - tanks, parts of cars - so those have been pulled out from the creek bed so it looks much nicer now," said Meintzschel said.
The company cleaning the creek is also planning to plant around 200 trees along the water to help keep the landfill from sliding into the river and hide it from view.
Meintzschel says he's told Friday is the last day crews will be working this year due to the holidays, but that they'll be back to work again in January.

This article describes an approach for creating live documentation for Java projects. One of the easiest way is to use a BDD framework - but which one? Hopefully this article will answer your questions...
Java is a minimalist language with deliberately less features than other languages, never the less it has edge cases which strange effects, and even some common cases with surprising effects to trip up the unwary.
I would have said "Test Driven Development" but I want to make it clear that what I'm talking about is writing test first, or at least simultaneous to writing the code. Not sometime after, even if that after is immediately after.
Technical logging is usually not tested.
A great development manager once said, "It's just software." That simple statement tells a much larger story. Software development for most companies is all about time and money. Most requests can be satisfied but developers have a tendency to rebut with "no" when they believe the work is too difficult, requires extensive time, or for a variety of other concerns.
When I first heard about unit testing using a framework like JUnit, I thought it was such a simple and powerful concept.
If you ever need to persuade management why it might be better to deploy a larger change in multiple stages and push it to customers gradually, read on.
This article is the third part of the Cloud Delivery Blueprints series. It discusses how to go from no cloud infrastructure and no continuous integration set up to having a functioning Deployment Pipeline in Amazon Web Services. It discusses high level topics while also providing a reference implementation so it's easy to follow along with
By applying a faulty implementation of the well-known Quicksort algorithm, we show how to find bugs faster. The method is based on reducing the input so that the smaller input still trigger the fault while even smaller doesn't.
In this post I want to go over Law of Demeter (LoD). I find this topic an extremely important for having the code clean, well-designed and maintainable.
I've been playing with the language a bit while tinkering with the Java 8 support under development by the Eclipse Java development tools (JDT) project.
I would recommend this book to system administrators and customers using Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012. Also it is a good investment for a technical consultant working with an AX partner.
I have created a small project to demonstrate some features of Ansible, the new DevOps hotness, including Vagrant VMs for running Ansible and for testing the configuration. Either go straight to
I will admit I have been a strong opponent of those listing roles and organizations as DevOps. Primarily because DevOps is a way to do something and creating a role DevOps Engineer is just putting lipstick on the pig for those looking to hire a Linux Sysadmin or infrastructure script coder. Likewise, the DevOps organization is a somewhat more likeable term, but still ambiguous at best.
It is hard to imagine life before self-service in grocery stores. For developers and young startups growing up with cloud solutions like Amazon Web Services, Heroku and Engine Yard, self-service is already becoming the norm. Some of these folks probably cannot even imagine a world before this.
This is part of a series of micro-blogs (somewhere between a tweet and a full on blog) on Clean Code. In this post, I'm going to focus on one big culprit in obfuscated, not clear clean code — Conditionals (i.e. if statements). Let's look at an example:
One of the asides I made in "Programmers without TDD will be unemployable" which caused a bit of outrage in the testing community was my comment "Manual testing is a sin." While I have been unfair to many testers, and somewhat simplistic, I still stand by the statement. Let me expand on why I still stand by the comment and why I am wrong.
Test-Driven Development with Mockito provides a general introduction to test-driven development (TDD) before looking at application of Mockito to implement test doubles as part of test-driven development.
When going for test-driven development, we all know that the unit test code becomes critical part of the code base. Is because of this that it is really important to have a solid unit test source code structure; flexible, intuitive and maintainable enough so that when the amount of unit tests grow, it does not become an uncontrollable mess.
It's not clear, actually, if this involves a TCP/IP "Mystery". What it may involve is a simple lack of ability to communicate. Or something.
Our skills and customs as programmers always tend to leak into our lives. If you haven't realized, you are probably trying to do everything an agile way. Aren't you? In this article, see one of these leaks in action: duplicating the bug.
The suspect's DNA had been found at 40 crime scenes, linking her to burglaries, narcotics and six murders. It turns out the infamous 'phantom' wasn't a murderer at all. Police were hunting an innocent factory worker who fatefully handled the same cotton swabs used to collect DNA samples from the crime scenes.
My preference is to simply remove the private modifier and make the method package private. Why is this a good idea? I will get to that after I discus the problems with the other methods.
The client sees the website in a different way, and if there is a problem, they will describe it to you with the words they know. Every developer has spent time talking or chatting or exchanging emails with a client who wants work done, but can't explain what they need in a way the developer can understand.
Sometimes you have to extend or maintain a legacy codebase that usually contains few cohesive classes. There often isn't time in this hectic agile world to make such classes easy to unit test the standard way. When you are trying to unit test such classes, you often realize that unusual mocking is needed.

Is It Normal For My Toddler Son To Be Obsessed With My Naked Body?!
I love my son. Truly adore him. However, I would be lying if I didn't freak out a little when finding out we'd have a son. That day we heard the sonogram tech's voice tell us our baby was a boy, my cooler-than-cool husband literally leaped with joy. He was so happy! I also have always wanted a son. My friends with boys talk about that insane love a boy has for their mother, and I wanted desperately to know how that love felt. But, seriously. No one ever told me how much love this kid would have for me!
Just like my first child, a girl, I breast fed my son for the first 15 months of life. He took to the breast like a champ, giving me not a single issue, unlike his older sister. When we finally weaned, his enthusiasms to be near my chest never diminished. As a soothing technique, he buries his face to my chest as though he is nursing, pursing his lips as if he were suckling. Since he only really does this when he's scared or tired, I let him. And honestly, I secretly love knowing that he remains connected to our breastfeeding days in a small way.
But, please do tell me if this is normal—why is my toddler son so obsessed with my naked body?! Do all moms to boys deal with this kind of, um, affection?
At not even 18 months of age, I can't shower around my son without his eyes popping out of his skull. As I'm getting dressed, he follows behind me and checks me out from all angles. As we're walking through the grocery store, he'll stuff his hands down my shirt…just to make sure the girls are still there?
I'm not a new mom, I know this is normal; if anything, I find humor in my boy's adoration for his mama's most natural state. I know this is just a phase of development for a…toddler? For some reason I thought I had a few years before his fascination with the woman form really took hold of his behaviors!
I love my boy to the moon and back, but I wouldn't mind if his obsession with my naked body waned. I can't be the only mom that feels this way!

I soon, as saw the Advert I knew I had to watch the movie straight away. It was different to how I pictured it, but it was still quite entertaining. The ending was just hilarious, mostly to the fact that it was a Teddy bear losing it's life.
So, how did you find it?
