Parents and teachers filled every seat at the Wilson County School Board meeting to hear more about a controversial proposal to move middle school students into a vacant former high school building.
The old Lebanon High School was closed because it was leaky, moldy and bug-infested.
The director of schools said turning it into a middle school is a win-win because it has computer and science labs plus more room for the arts and athletics.
"Plus the fact that we are currently spending $15,000 per month for utilities in a building we're not using," said Mike Davis, Wilson County Director of Schools.
The plan would transfer all students in grades six through eight out of three existing schools: Carroll Oakland, Tuckers Crossroads and Southside Elementary.
They would attend the old Lebanon High in the fall of 2013, although the building would not be renovated, according to several county commissioners who toured the school and were surprised the school board would consider moving students back in.
Some parents weren't happy about the idea of their children being moved to the old school.
"I feel if they didn't feel it was the best for the children a year ago, whenever they built the new Lebanon High school, so I don't know why they feel it's ok to move sixth, seventh and eighth graders back in there," said Raenn Perry, a Wilson County mother.
Other parents said it's time to act to address the issue of overcrowded schools.
"Our students need space. Our teachers need space. We need it now," said Elizabeth Dyal, a Wilson County parent.
The school board was surprised so many turned out when they heard about the new plan and voted unanimously to defer discussion until January.

Thunderbolt for Windows Performance Preview - ASUS P8Z77-V Premium
Subject: General Tech, Motherboards, Storage | May 21, 2012 - 03:57 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: Z77, thunderbolt, p8z77-v premium, msi, asus
We have really been waiting for this since we first saw the release of Thunderbolt on the Apple MacBooks last year, but we finally have it: Thunderbolt support for PC users! Both MSI and ASUS today announced availability of motherboards with integrated Thunderbolt connectivity: the ASUS P8Z77-V Premium and the MSI Z77A-GD80 will both get you a single integrated Thunderbolt port.
You can see MSI's full press release right here.
We can't find the ASUS press release anywhere Here is the ASUS press release as well, but here are a few selections:
"Intel and ASUS have worked closely on the implementation of Thunderbolt technology onto Asus motherboards", said Jason Ziller, Intel's Director of Thunderbolt Marketing. "The P8Z77-V PREMIUM is the first Thunderbolt certified motherboard in the industry, a testament to its solid design and compatibility."
With its long history of working with high tech vendors, ASUS is able to show its strength and commitment to innovation with a close relationship to three of the leading brands currently producing products with Thunderbolt technology, Elgato, LaCie, and PROMISE.
Thunderbolt is a new, high-speed I/O technology designed for performance, simplicity and flexibility, with lightning fast transfer speeds that are twice that of USB 3.0 and up to 20 times faster than USB 2.0. It offers simultaneous bi-directional 10Gbps transfer speeds over a single cable, with the flexibility to daisy-chain up to six Thunderbolt-ready devices with a single connection as well as offering full display port support for a 7th Thunderbolt or display port equipped monitor. This allows for a clutter-free computing experience while offering unprecedented levels of performance. Users can connect multiple Thunderbolt-enabled external storage drives to a Thunderbolt-enabled display and transfer files while watching HD movies, all without experiencing any lag. In addition for content professional this connection has been designed form the ground up for multimedia offering low latency with highly accurate time synchronization for professional audio and video applications. PC enthusiast and gamers can take immediate advantage combining Thunderbolt and on-board Lucid Virtu MVP to enjoy top-notch graphics performance.
Even better, we have some in-action video of the new ASUS Thunderbolt-implementation including performance!
This video was recorded well before today's launch during our Z77 Live Review and clearly shows some of the benefits of Thunderbolt, as well as some of the limitations, you'll find if you pick up the ASUS P8ZZ77-V Premium motherboard!
New mLink PCI-E to Thunderbolt Enclosure Shown Off at NAB 2012
Subject: General Tech, Mobile | April 24, 2012 - 10:37 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: thunderbolt, PCIe SSD, pcie, mlink, apple
California based company mLogic LLC debuted a new "mLink" Thunderbolt enclosure at the NAB 2012 show that will allow users to connect PCI-E based cards to computers using Thunderbolt connections. Unfortunately, enthusiasts wishing to slap a graphics card into the enclosure are out of luck. The incompatibility is due to graphics cards not having Thunderbolt aware drivers and may be something that is rectified in the future but currently not an option.
Right now, there are only a few storage devices and networking NICs that are compatible with the mLink enclosure including Apricorn and OWC PCI-E SSDs, Atto Technology's Fiber Channel network cards, and Atto Technology's SAS RAID controller cards. (The full list of compatible devices is located here.) Not terribly exciting, but some users will find it very useful. The design is very streamlined and sleek, though its worth mentioning that it comes at a cost of $400 USD.
Enthusiasts wanting to add more graphics horsepower to their notebooks will have to look elsewhere, but for users that need super fast storage in a sleek industrial design enclosure it is an interesting option. The price will be something that turns many people off of it, however. It is slated to release in June with pre-orders being accepted now. More information along with photos of the device is available here.
It sure looks nice, but is this something people will actually use? Let us know in the comments!
LaCie's Little Big Disk now comes in Thunderbolt
Subject: Storage | January 20, 2012 - 10:50 AM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: thunderbolt, LaCie, Little Big Disk, ssd, external drive
Thunderbolts and lightning have been gracing the front page of PC Perspective for a while now, the new external interfaces are well described but there is a lack of products on the market to review. Hopefully that will change soon as there is little point of having an interface with nothing to plug into it. LaCie is one of the few to have actually managed to get a product to market, a Thunderbolt connected external 240GB SSD version of their Little Big Disk. It was certainly fast in the testing that TechReviewSource performed but it does leave one with a question, who needs to back up 200GB in a big hurry and is willing to spend over $900 for the ability to do so?
"The LaCie Little Big Disk Thunderbolt (240GB SSD) is currently the least expensive way to obtain Thunderbolt speeds for your late-model Mac. It's half the price of the Promise Pegasus R6, the only other Thunderbolt drive on the market, but that doesn't mean it's cheap."

AMD Lightning Bolt Strikes At Intel's Thunderbolt
Subject: General Tech | January 13, 2012 - 06:40 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: thunderbolt, miniDP, lightning bolt, cable
We saw AMD at CES, and they showed off some hardware; however, it seems they forgot to mention something. Anand managed to get a sneak peek at a certain Thunderbolt competitor that AMD is calling "Lightning Bolt." At first resembling a cable with mini-Display Port connectors, the AMD technology is able pass Display Port video, power, and USB 3.0 over a single cable.
Image the Lightning Bolt cable looking like this miniDP to miniDP cable.
The company is currently working to integrate the Lightning Bolt technology into laptops and ultrathins as a cheap, single cable dock connection. The current implementation involves using a muxer to combine the USB, Display Port output, and power from the PSU electrical signals and pass it over a single miniDP cable. This miniDP cable will resemble current cables but will be electrically different by having two pins on the connectors altered. The dock that the Lightning Bolt cable connects to then splits out or demuxes the signals into a MiniDP connection and a USB 3.0 port(s). AMD is planning for the Lightning Bolt docks to cost about as much as current USB 3.0 hubs, which run about $40 USD at the time of writing. Unfortunately, there are some caveats to the technology including (possibly) limited power delivery and limits on the USB 3.0 connection. The company stated that Lightning Bolt transfers between the computer and USB 3.0 devices would be faster than USB 2.0 speeds, the connection would not support the full 5 Gbits maximum speed.
More information can be found here. Personally, I'm happy that AMD is stepping in despite the tacky name. At the very least, I can see Lightning Bolt connectors being features on AMD notebooks and providing useful competition to bring down the cost of Intel's Thunderbolt cables and hardware. It may also cause Intel to reduce any licensing fees that may be involved with OEMs building Thunderbolt into computers. Although the AMD technology is all electrical (no fancy optics), and thus inherently slower than Intel's theoretical maximum speeds, the cheaper hardware means OEMs will be more likely to integrate it into computers and consumers will be more likely to buy into it. Assuming, of course, that they can pull it off, "Lightning Bolt" sounds like a connection technology that is "fast enough" at a price I wouldn't mind paying a bit extra for in a laptop.
Apart from the name, which is a bit... let's say unoriginal, what do you think of the AMD tech?

VIA Labs USB 3.0 Active Optical Cable Solution Demonstrated at CES 2012
Subject: General Tech | January 13, 2012 - 08:37 AM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: CES, VIA, usb 3.0, thunderbolt
VIA Labs have teamed up with Fiber Optic Communications Inc., PCL Technologies Inc., OpTarget Solutions Co., Ltd. and Universal Microelectronics Co,. Ltd. to create a transceiver for use with USB 3.0 Active Optical Cables. This USB 3.0 AOC seems to be what LightPeak, aka Thunderbolt was originally supposed to be. Thunderbolt did arrive, it showed up quite a bit at CES 2012, but as a copper interconnect as opposed to the multiple wavelength fibre optics we were originally promised. If the 5 gigabit portion of the name is truly indicative of transfer speeds then this type of USB connection will run about 7 times faster than the Thunderbolt devices that were shown at CES. As well, the cables can be run for over 100 metres, so you might just be able to wire your house for USB after all.
Taipei, Taiwan, January 13, 2012 - VIA Labs, Inc., a leading supplier of USB 3.0 integrated chip controllers, today announced the VIA Labs VO510 5-Gigabit Optical Transceiver which is being showcased at CES 2012. The VIA Labs V0510 Optical Transceiver is used in USB 3.0 Active Optical Cables (AOC) which enables rapid data transfers and high-definition multimedia across distances of over 100 meters. Developed in collaboration with FOCI, PCL, OpTarget and UMEC, USB 3.0 AOC solutions offer exciting new possibilities in the use of USB 3.0 technology.
"This USB 3.0 AOC was designed to be fully compliant with SuperSpeed USB electrical specifications," said Dr. Janpu Hou, Vice President of FOCI. "We are very pleased to be a partner on this collaboration team. This partnership will accelerate the deployment of breakthrough USB 3.0 technologies and enable new applications for all USB 3.0 developers." As a partner of FOCI, Dr. Thomas Liu, President of PCL said "As the world leading optical transceiver ODM/CM company,PCL Technologies is excited to build and demonstrate the optical USB 3.0 cable in collaboration with VIA Labs and Foci. With the USB 3.0 AOCs providing higher data rates across much longer distances, we will enable usage scenarios in Digital Signage, Surveillance, and Zero Client applications."
"OpTarget works with leading system integrators, distributors, and OEMs in the development and delivery of Smart Digital Signage and Zero Client solutions for commercial, education, and industrial customers. With the ultra-thin profile and long reach of the new USB 3.0 AOC powered by VIA Labs' Optical Transceiver, we can now offer effective and low-cost solutions based on existing USB devices while providing an improved user experience, increased functionality, and greater system flexibility" said Mu Chen, President of OpTarget.
"The UMEC Thumb ONE USB 3.0 AOC can extend gigabit-speed USB 3.0 transmission distance up to 100m (330ft) with optical fibers. Since optical fibers carry light instead of electric impulses, they are highly resistant to electromagnetic interference and they do not radiate any of their own, making the USB 3.0 AOC an excellent solution for applications in Medical Imaging Equipment, Broadcast TV, and others where high-tolerance to interference is desirable" said K.T. Chao, Vice President of UMEC.
"We are very grateful to our partners, who worked closely with VIA Labs to bring the USB 3.0 AOC from concept to reality," said Jiin Lai, Chief Technical Officer, VIA Labs, Inc. "With the VO510 and our partner's AOC products at mass production readiness, we are looking to expand our coverage of other interconnects such as PCI Express."

CES 2012: MSI GUS II External Thunderbolt Graphics Upgrade System
Subject: Graphics Cards, Mobile, Shows and Expos | January 10, 2012 - 04:41 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: CES, thunderbolt, msi, gus ii, gus, external graphics
While wandering around the MSI suite at The Venetian today I came across a very interesting new device. The GUS II is an external discrete graphics card dock that connects to a notebook PC (or small-form factor, etc) via a Thunderbolt connection.
Thunderbolt is a somewhat new interface that extends the PCI Express bus outside of the machine allowing for performance as high as 10 Gb/s per channel in its full implementation. Current Intel implementations that ship with the Macbook Air and likely included in the first batch of Thunderbolt-capable Ultrabooks are built around Eagle Ridge that offers two bi-directional channels. Still, even with a 10 Gb/s rating, we are seeing more than enough bandwidth for a discrete graphics card.
You can see that device obviously won't fit your new Radeon HD 7970 3GB in there but the GUS II will support cards with as much as 150 watts of power consumption via the included external power brick. 75 watts of power is supplied by the internal PEG slot while the internal 6-pin ATX power connector supplies another 75 watts.
MSI was running an HD 5770 inside the GUS II on a MacBook Pro running Windows 7. Unigine Heaven was playing on the graphics card outputs and it was definitely running at speeds and quality settings that the GPU in the Macbook would not have been able to.
MSI mentioned they were hopeful the price would be in the $150 range which is actually quite a good surprise considering they are going to be including the Thunderbolt cable in the box - an accessory that is notoriously expensive today.
All that is holding up the GUS II from release at this point is compatibility and driver support from AMD and NVIDIA. Because you are essentially adding in another PCI Express graphics card to system that might only have been prepared and QA'd for a single one, there are some issues to work out. Even with the hardware in a basically complete state, there is no time table for release though hopefully we can get this pushed into the mainstream soon.
Thunderbolt might finally bring us the dockable and upgradeable graphics we have always envisioned for notebooks.

CES 2012: OCZ Shows Lightfoot, Thunderbolt External SATA Drive
Subject: Storage, Shows and Expos | January 8, 2012 - 12:01 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: thunderbolt, ssd, ocz, lightfoot, CES
Today at the Storage Visions conference before the start of CES 2012, OCZ was on hand to show off a few new items they have planned for the year. First up is the Lightfoot, a successor to the OCZ Enyo external USB 3.0 SSD that we reviewed and really enjoyed our time with.
As you can see it looks quite a bit bigger than the original Enyo and that is on account of the increased storage capacity. You can expect to see sizes as high as 1TB and it will also be available in 128GB, 256GB and 512GB.
Here is the Thunderbolt connector that many a Mac user and, hopefully soon, PC users will be able to take advantage of for improved throughput with transfer rates as high as 750 MB/s quoted by OCZ.
OCZ claims that the one of the benefits of moving to the Thunderbolt interconnect is improved latency and highly accurate time synchronization that will allow for professional audio and video work to be done directly on the drive. We are pretty eager to see if this is the case...
The time frame for this device is still unknown but we'll see if we can get more information this week by asking the right people.
UPDATE: OCZ is telling us that Lightfoot will cost about $2/GB, so that 1TB model will run around $2000. For those a bit more frugal, you can get the 128GB option for something like $250.

April Thunderbolts. Do they bring May flowers?
Subject: General Tech | December 27, 2011 - 12:49 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: thunderbolt
A little standard known as Thunderbolt has made its way around the industry for its high bandwidths and promise of transporting data optically rather than electrically. Intel, the creator, eventually needed to drop optical communication from the spec with a return loosely planned but firmly believed. For the last year, Apple was the only source for Thunderbolt-capable computers; starting in April, several PC manufacturers are expected to participate in adopting Intel's technology.
Apple blossoms
Intel weighed in on the adoption of the standard in a statement to their partners.
To speed up the standardization of Thunderbolt, Intel is cooperating with Apple and Apple is the sole vendor currently to have PC products featuring Thunderbolt technology. As demand for the technology has seen obvious growth, Intel is ready to release the technology for public use.
While I am not too fond of the more proprietary platforms, several technologies await better external busses: high-speed storage and dockable processing accelerators such as external video cards are two very good examples. We will also at some point need to break free from electron transistor-based computing methods; optical integrated circuits based on photonic crystals appear to be a logical albeit distant next step. Advancements in optical bus technology for Thunderbolt, now, would be applicable for the advancement of that technology when it becomes ready, much later.
What would you do with a faster external bus? The crazier the prediction, the better.

Natural gas: Ready for prime time? Part 1
Natural gas as a fuel for internal combustion engines isn't a new idea. What is new is how fast it's penetrating new applications, including the heavy-duty truck market, in the wake of rising diesel prices.
Interest in natural gas as a viable Class 8 fuel skyrocketed during the unprecedented 2007-08 fuel price spike. That brief affair ended as prices dropped when the subsequent recession hit.
Today, interest is returning. The industry realizes that yesterday's lower fuel prices truly are a thing of the past, says Robert Carrick, vocational sales manager of natural gas for Freightliner. "Every time the prices retreat, they'll stay at a higher level instead of dropping all the way back down," Carrick says.
Even if the natural gas infrastructure is lagging, competition is driving the heavy-duty truck marketplace, says Jonathan Burke, vice president of global market development for Westport.
"We're seeing all of the major truck manufacturers step up and invest significant amounts of capital in making a huge range of new factory-built vehicles," Burke says. This is borne out by recent announcements from Volvo, Mack, Peterbilt, Kenworth, Navistar and Freightliner. All of these companies are investing heavily in natural gas technology and products. Freightliner recently completed a high-profile drive from San Diego to North Carolina in natural gas trucks fueled only at publicly available natural gas fueling stations.
New engines are on rapid development tracks throughout the industry, but pull open the hood on a natural gas truck today, and odds are there's a red block sitting there. Cummins, through its Cummins-Westport joint venture, is the largest provider of natural gas heavy-duty engines in North America with 8.9-liter and soon-to-be-released 12- and 15-liter offerings based on its own ISG diesel engine.
Natural gas trucks are expensive, though they have a fast return on investment due to the decidedly lower cost of natural gas. A new natural gas truck can cost as much as $40,000 in incremental upcharges over a conventional and comparable Class 8 diesel truck, says Greg Treinen, segment manager, distribution and services/alternative fuels, product marketing for Freightliner. These upcharges are not likely to go down eventually, as they are a result of higher-priced components such as highly specialized fuel systems and tanks that will not cost much less even if economies of scale come into play.
Despite its limitations of power density and range compared to diesel, natural gas appears to be working for those willing to accept those tradeoffs in return for lower fuel prices and the noble goals of running a greener operation and taking a small step to wean the United States off foreign oil.
"You have to run a lot of miles with the trucks if you're going to make this investment pay off," says Phil Crofts, director of marketing for Burr Ridge, Ill.-based Dillon Transport, which is testing a Peterbilt with a 12-liter LNG engine. "At first, we were unfamiliar with the new engine, the electronics and things like that," Crofts says. "But the fuel is performing almost as advertised."
Crofts says the truck isn't getting the utilization Dillon had hoped. "What we've learned is that if you're only going to run 100,000 miles a year, natural gas is probably not going to pay off," he says. "We run our trucks 250,000 to 300,000 miles in a year, and we're saving some sizable chunks of money with those mileage figures. But a lot of that goes out in increased maintenance and in other areas – spark plugs, oil changes and things like that."
Compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) behave the same once in the combustion chamber, but the manners in which they are delivered, stored, packaged on a vehicle and transported to the combustion chamber are radically different.
"Generally speaking, fleets operating on longer routes should ensure they are running on a defined natural gas corridor," says Steve Weiner, alternative fuels marketing manager for Peterbilt. "If the routes are stable, then you can put fuel where you need it. If the routes change frequently, then it can be challenging to ensure fuel availability."

burner size for a 20gallon pot
Hi Fellow brewers,
Question on burner to pot ratio.
I brewed a maiden brew in a 20g brewpot. 17 gallon of wort preboil. I used a turkey burner for this mission. It took forever to get up to boil. I know its alot of wort to boil. Also i did my mash in this pot, using the blichman false floor. had a burnt crust when i was in the middle of the pot under the false floor, 6 inches in diameter, sucked. I have created a toasted ale as a consequence. smells great but a slight taste of ummmm toastiness.
Now i am new to this and i apologize if this is a silly question. But would a bigger burner size help get to a boil quicker and would it have prevented the burn from the mash.(took me 2 hours to clean) I should have recirculated more at the beginning i realized. I feel like i know the answer is yes but i would like your expert opinions please. thank you so much for your help.
If by bigger burner you mean larger diameter, then that would help provide even heat to prevent scorching during the mash. You still want to heat a mash gently and recirculate.
More BTUs will help you boil faster. Consider this burner:
Its quite popular on these forums and has massive heat output.
thank you, that is the one i was looking at. I bought a 20g pot and used a burner for a turkey burner. Yes it did leave some burnt mash on the bottom of the pot, and took way to long to boil 16 gallons of wort. So im in the hunt for a new burner. By the way, that batch was dubbed smoked ale. You could taste the slight toasted mash from the burn. Not ideal but was drinkable for sure. Whats the difference with that classic burner and say these ones.
the second link looks like the same burner really.
The Blichmann name mostly - http://www.northernbrewer.com/shop/b...or-burner.html
Amazon runs on about 1% margins - http://www.northernbrewer.com/shop/b...and-stand.html
so the bayou shown on northern brewer is the same as the Bayou Classic KAB4 High Pressure Banjo Cooker on amazon if im reading you correct. Sounds like a good deal. Will be ordering one soon.
Get the blichmann if you can afford it. You will never have to buy another again. I love mine even though it is expensive.
both use same burner orifice so it becomes Iron or stainless. bling or no
2 Attachment(s)
you could always make a custom burner....Our brew club has a 100 gallon kettle we do group brews on...and one of our members built this awesome stand and custom burner for it....two propane tanks feed into this plus an air tank to feed it oxygen...it got 100 gallons boiling in 20 minutes....

Too much tryptophan from the holiday weekend making your writing muscles a little weak? Tighten them back up with this bank of prompts from Writer's Digest.
A sampling of the ones I like:
- A picture on your mantle unexpectedly falls and crashes to the floor. As you go to pick it up, you notice a note hidden behind the picture. The message is from the future—and written by you. It instructs you to do something important. What does it say?
- You had planned to attend a friend's birthday party and plugged her address into your GPS system, but the system guided you to somewhere else. Oddly enough, there was a man waiting for you at this mysterious place. "Sorry I had to rig your GPS, but this is urgent," said the person.
- You get into work and find that your boss has left a voicemail message on your phone. The message is urgent. Though, what's peculiar is that the message is not work related. Write this scene.

- About Deakin
The rapid growth in electronic resources in recent years, the introduction of new initiatives such as Worldwide Loans and Document Supply Service and BONUS+, the changing needs of library clients and the refurbishing of library spaces have all resulted in the need to undertake a systematic review of the print monograph collections. As part of the review, some materials will be identified for de-selection based on the defined criteria in these guidelines. Material will also be selectively targeted for ordering to ensure out-dated material is replaced and growing areas of interest are resourced.
The review project aims to ensure the collections: (1) remain current and relevant to the teaching, learning and research activities within the University (2) are responsive to changing client needs (3) best utilise library space and alternative storage/archiving arrangements.

Another quick post - some of my favourite things - stripes, roses and coral coloured nail varnish. More info on the blog.
I know I know more teal and orange. But I was happy with this ikat manicure. Polish details on my blog.
Trying out one of the new Barry M textured polishes - what do you think? My thoughts are on my blog.
Bit of a T-shirt and denim look maybe? Handpainted hibiscus flower, coral gradient, and A-England's lovely navy blue holo polish, Tristram. More details on my blog.
Vintage roses-style nails in a coral-based colourway. Find out which polishes I used on my blog.
Can you tell I bought some nail art supplies recently? These nails are done using gold and silver foils, which I bought from Born Pretty Store. I painted on my base colours (Urban Outfitters Cocktail and Crowded) and cut my foils (which come in little folded sheets and are very, very thin and light) into smaller squares. Then nail by nail I painted another coat and pressed the foil onto the nail varnish while it was still sticky. I used a wet cotton bud to smooth out the foil and then pulled off/trimmed the edges, before sealing with a topcoat. I think it looks pretty cool and I'll definitely try more colour and design combinations. I imagine nails that were completely foiled would look good as well!

[HELP] When I crossfade loop is the any way to keep the tempo of the sample the same even when its played at different pitches? (self.flstudio)
submitted 1 year ago by chimpastronaut
sorry for the noob question
[–]Izahead 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (0 children)
I'm not too sure what you mean by "crossfade loop", but as for keeping the tempo, that is possible. For the audio clip you'd like to manipulate, go into's settings, in the "SMP" tab, under Time Stretching, set it to pro transient. From there you can adjust the knobs to the left, which affect pitch, multiplier, and time.

Woodland Hills-based Health Net Inc., one of the largest health insurers in California, "set goals and paid bonuses" for employees "based in part on how many individual policyholders were dropped and how much money was saved." Between 2000 and 2006, the company "avoided paying $35.5 million in medical expenses by rescinding about 1,600 policies" while paying "its senior analyst in charge of cancellations more than $20,000 in bonuses based in part on her meeting or exceeding annual targets for revoking policies."
Health insurer rewards dropping sick policyholders.

Matthew Bowman teaches religion at Hampden-Sydney College and is the author of The Urban Pulpit: New York City and the Fate of Liberal Evangelicalism (Oxford, 2014).
Last week, evangelical congregations across America began screening a documentary called The Stranger: Immigration, Scripture and the American Dream, produced by a group called the Evangelical Immigration Table. Among EIT's advocates are a host of uncommon bedfellows: Mathew Staver of the Liberty University School of Law and Jim Wallis of Sojourners, Leith Anderson of the National Association of Evangelicals and Russell Moore of the Southern Baptist Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, and popular pastors Max Lucado and Wilfredo de Jesús.
Immigration reform has attracted such a spectrum of advocates that it shows how it is a fortuitous issue for American Protestants.

Their story is a beautiful awakening of male curiosity and experimentation, made hotter when Grant's wife is included in the two men's love play. The relationship between the three characters is real and tangible. The reader will be able to literally feel the love that they have for each other come through the page.
Married couple Grant and Vivi have been best friends with Cade forever. However, the relationship has been slowly changing when Vivi and Grant realize they are both attracted to their bisexual friend. The three decide it is time to act on their passion, but they are all looking for more than just a ménage. Cade, Vivi and Grant feel deep and abiding love for each other, but can they make their unusual arrangement work? (Carina Press, September 2010, dl $3.99).
