Changes to Tennessee Medicare Advantage and part D | Tennessee Medicare Supplement
Medicare changes upcoming for next year's Medicare plans.
Open Enrollment Period Cancelled
In the past there were two enrollment periods, Annual Election Period was Nov 15-Dec 31, and Open Enrollment Period was Jan 1-March 31. During the Nov 15 to Dec 31 period, you could make as many changes as you wanted, and during the Jan 1 to March 31 period you could make one change and after that you were locked into whatever plan you had chosen. This year the Open Enrollment Period has been done away with, and after Dec 31, the only change you can make during the new Annual Disenrollment Period from Jan 1 to March 31 is to disenroll from your Medicare Advantage plan and return to original Medicare with a part D.
Plan Cancellations
A large number of Medicare Advantage plans and Medicare part D plans have been cancelled this year. If your plan was cancelled, a notice letter will be mailed out from your carrier on October 1 to notify you of the cancellation. If your plan was cancelled, you will be allowed a special election period on January 1st that lasts 63 days in which you will be allowed to choose a new plan because of your involuntary disenrollment. If your Medicare Advantage plan was cancelled, you do not have to remain with the same company or take the alternative plan they offer, and can move to any company: You cannot be declined coverage for any reason. If your part D plan was cancelled, you can move to any part D carrier you want, but do not gain a guaranteed issue period for a Medicare Supplement.
Tennessee Part D
Last year there were 46 different Part D plans available in Tennessee. Center for Medicare Services requested that the carriers reduce the number of plans they were offering, and this year there are 30. There have also been very significant changes as to how Medicare part D works. Most plans now offer coverage inside the coverage gap, or doughnut hole. Several plans have had rate changes and formulary changes. If your plan was cancelled and you do not enroll into a new coverage before the end of your election period, you will be subject to the 1% fine per month that is added to your part D or Medicare Advantage premiums permanently for not enrolling.
Tennessee Medicare Advantage
This year many of the Medicare plans that were known as PFFS or Private Fee For Service plans have been eliminated. Only a very few zip codes in Tennessee still have plans of that nature, and most have been replaced by PPO plans. The big difference in a PFFS plan and PPO plan is that a PPO plan has a network, you are not required to use the network but if you want to use out of network doctors they can choose to refuse the insurance and will charge a higher copayment amount. Any doctor can choose to refuse to accept a PFFS style plan at any time, so this is arguably a positive change overall.

Hi Parakoos - great work !
I've tried 100s of plugins over these past 18 months, but rarely have I seen perfect results immediately, without spending an hour or more tweaking the css !
It really is a case of creating a new page with the shortcode and that's it - images are pulled in, scaled and fitted to the page, with a nice black border and rounded corners - it looks absolutely great !
This plugin really does deserve a wider audience - I just stumbled across it by chance - I'll certainly be telling a few friends. Parakoos - maybe you can submit this to some blogs to reach more people, eg: 'Manage WP', WPMU, problogger, etc.
Best of luck with this plugin, your blog, and all future endeavours. :)

"Liberec" Top 5 Page for this destination Liberec by peter_dimov
Liberec Travel Guide: 78 reviews and 146 photos
Liberec (pop 100 000, Northern CZ) is a quite pleasant city in a hilly area. It can be described as a very "green" city. In and around Liberec there are many things to see. The city is being visited for its remarkable architecture and nearby mountains, also the famous zoo. There are also some museums that collect things about the history of whole Northern CZ. It is much quieter city than Prague but there arent only a few sights.
The city is also known about having the oldest zoo in Czech Republic and also with its large botanical garden. Both are rebuilt and modernized nowadays, which makes them even more attractive.
This is a small nearby peak who gives some ideas for skiing and one-day hiking trips. Good and easy one if you prefer walking uphill.
Up in the tower there are a restaurant and a snackbar, and you can hire a room - still
- Pros:Great city atmosphere - also the air is quite clean =D
- Cons:Too big to walk around!

A $212 million project to add a fourth milk drier to the
plant is scheduled to be finished on September 1 and will
leave the plant capable of processing 15 million litres of
milk a day.
Project manager Dean Shilvock said the new drier could
produce 27 tonnes of milk powder an hour, or 150,000 tonnes a
season, and would work alongside three smaller driers at the
site, one handling seven tonnes an hour and two 14 tonnes an
Next season, the new drier was expected to process 620
million litres of milk into regular UHT and instant whole
milk powder.
Mr Shilvock said Edendale's extra capacity was needed to
handle projected milk growth in the South Island by 2012-13,
but in the meantime it would process surplus milk from the
company's Clandeboye plant near Timaru.
It also took milk from Clandeboye last season.
Between 400 and 450 contractors from throughout New Zealand
have been building the new drier, as well as a new boiler, a
120m by 60m new dry store and upgrading the wastewater
Mr Shilvock said the first drier was built at Edendale in
1994, the second in 2002 and the third in 2003.
Casein plants were built in 1996 and 1998.
When the fourth drier was completed, an extra 30 to 40 people
would be employed, taking the site workforce, including
tanker drivers, to about 390.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Lawmakers want to spend $3 billion to make sure millions of Americans won't wake up to blank TV screens when the country makes the switch to all-digital broadcasts.
The subsidy was approved Thursday by the Senate Commerce Committee as part of legislation that would set April 7, 2009, as the firm date for television broadcasters to end their traditional analog transmissions and send their broadcasts via digital signals.
Digital television promises sharper pictures and better sound than analog TV. But millions of Americans with older TV sets rely solely on free, over the-air-television, and they'll need some type of a converter box to keep receiving their television service. Cable and satellite customers won't be affected.
Committee Chairman Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, said Congress needs to do something to help consumers with the older analog sets, an estimated 21 million households. "If we're mandating this (digital) conversion, we cannot leave people behind because they can't afford" digital television sets, he said.
The draft of a House bill would end analog transmissions on Dec. 31, 2008. It does not mention a subsidy for set-top converter boxes. So, lawmakers will likely have to work out differences between the two bills, though Stevens said he did not anticipate a big fight with the House over the deadline or the subsidy.
The subsidy program would be paid for by money raised from the auction of the analog spectrum the broadcasters are vacating. The subsidy would be available for all those households with older televisions, and it would pay for converter boxes for all the TVs in a particular household, regardless of financial status.
Stevens estimates that the converter boxes would cost about $50. His plan would call for the government to pay roughly $40, and the consumer would make a co-payment of $10.
Some fellow Republicans have questioned whether the $3 billion is too high, given other spending priorities such as Hurricane Katrina recovery.
The move to all-digital broadcasts will free valuable radio spectrum, some of which will be allocated to improve radio communications among fire and police departments and other first responders.
Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., a member of the committee, tried to move up the hard date up by two years to April 7, 2007. But other senators said a sale in 2007, unlike one in 2009, wouldn't raise as much money for the converter boxes and for reducing the federal debt.
McCain said first responders can't wait four years for the analog spectrum. "There's only one thing more important than money -- and that's lives," he told the committee before his amendment to speed up the conversion was defeated.
The sale of the analog spectrum is expected to raise at least $10 billion. Besides the $3 billion for converter boxes, the Senate bill proposes reserving $1 billion for public safety to buy new radio communications equipment and $250 million for a national alert system. Another $5 billion would be set aside for debt reduction.
The seemingly random date of April 7, 2009, isn't all that random. Stevens wanted to make sure that any digital switch wouldn't come in the middle of popular programming during the holidays, football bowl games, and the March Madness college basketball playoffs.

Nice, clean appartment near busstation and U- und S-bahn. Also shops for grocery en restaurants nearby.
The owner is very quick in responding to questions.
Only problem we had was with the water, the washinhmachine couldn't be used because of a problem with the drain, and hot water under the shower was a bit of a challenge, but I'm sure Benjamin will fix that for the next guest.
Benjamin is really kind, great host and I'm happy to be there. Appartment is nice, area is very good and dinamic.
Very nice place with high ceilings and cozy decor. We had a great time in the flat. And Banjamin is a very nice guy, concerned with our well-being :) We can only recommend to stay at his place! Location is a bit on the outskirts, but we knew that. And the connection via S-bahn from Beusselstrasse works well.
very comfortable, clean apartment, very close to transport. the flat has everything you need to feel like your home. and the owner is welcoming and for the check in and check out we have no problem. when we come back to berlin we certainly stay at Benjamin's house. thank you very much
Benjamin is a wonderful host. He made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed, including purchasing dog bowls for our pup! As he lives very near to the flat, he was able to pop over with additional towels and a second set of keys to make our stay as enjoyable as possible.
The flat itself is not luxurious, but is certainly adequate. It's clear that Benjamin has put a lot of thought into the furnishings and accessories, which made it feel quite comfortable. The vintage radio was a favourite touch!
The wifi was fast and reliable and the kitchen was equipped with the basics.
The location is close to shops and restaurants and within a 15 minute walk from many transit option (S-/U-Bahn stations and buses).
It was very nice to stay at Benjamins flat. It is a cosy place, with everything you need to make some dinner after a day of sightseeing. It is close to the S-Bahn, so it is easy to get to Mitte. Benjamin was very nice, and flexibel with the check-in and check-out.
Benjamin was very helpful and accomodating. The flat is charming and located near u-bahn and s-train and buses. We would love to go back!

Agilex co-founder and Vice Chairman Jay Nussbaum (left) welcomes Roger Baker aboard as chief strategy officer. (Photo courtesy of Agilex)
Former Department of Veterans Affairs CIO Roger Baker, who left the agency in March after four years of service, has taken his IT talents to the private sector.
On April 1, Baker stepped into the newly created position of chief strategy officer at Agilex, a Virginia-based provider of mobility, analytics and other technology solutions to the federal government. His hiring signals the six-year-old company's intent to build its brand from a modestly sized 500-person company into a $1 billion organization over the next decade, according to Agilex co-founder and Vice Chairman Jay Nussbaum.
"As one of the most respected and transformative CIOs in government history, Roger redefined technology's role in the federal sector," Nussbaum said. "He will build upon his numerous accomplishments while advancing Agilex' position as our clients' most trusted and valuable partner. With his appointment, it should be clear that we are fully committed to our clients' long-term and enduring success."
Washington Technology: VA's Roger Baker picks Agilex for next career chapter
As CSO, Baker will work to improve solutions with existing Agilex customers -- including members of the intelligence community, and the departments of Defense, Homeland Security and Health and Human Services -- and look to help expand the company's brand to other federal sector clients. Under the Obama administration's ethics guidelines, Baker cannot deal directly with VA for at least two years.
While Baker's public- and private-sector experience and extensive file of federal IT contacts held obvious appeal for Agilex, he said he chose the customer-centric company from a long list of potential suitors because both parties share a vision for a better government.
Agilex, he said, puts the long-term results of its federal customers before short-term profits with the expectation that profits will follow results -- a business model that he feels will not only survive, but also thrive in a sector stressed by sequestration and budget woes.
"The beauty of where I'm at at this point is that you get to be selective about who you work for. This opportunity came along faster than I thought, but I'm pretty excited about getting going," Baker told FCW in an April 2 interview. "I want to continue to help change government, this time from outside government - that is the passion. We as taxpayers deserve and demand better investment, and that's in large part why I took a job inside government. I'm taking this job with the idea that you can have the same kind of influence from the outside, and drive a different model."
Baker first worked with Agilex when it provided technical leadership in the development of the Veterans Benefits Administration's Chapter 33 Long-Term Solution, which delivers education benefits to veterans, and said the collaboration on that project was uniquely positive. After he announced his decision in February to leave VA, Baker said a contact told him Agilex might be interested, and after a first meeting with the company, he was interested, too.
Nussbaum said Baker has a history of delivering results, making hard decisions and using innovative approaches.
At VA, Baker oversaw the federal government's second largest IT department, including a $3.3 billion budget and 7,500 IT professionals. He helped lead the agency in adopting mobile technology to improve healthcare, and pushed for standards-based systems and open-source software. Baker has repeatedly been recognized in the federal IT community for his efforts, and was most recently honored as a 2013 Federal 100 winner.
Outside VA, Baker served three years as the Department of Commerce's CIO (1998-2001), as president and CEO of Dataline LLC, CIO for General Dynamics Information Technology, and general manager for the Telecommunications and Information Assurance business group at CACI International. In his early career, Baker was COO for BlueGill Technologies, and vice president of Engineering and Operations at VISA International. And the hands-on leader is no stranger to hard labor, having grown up on a dairy farm in rural Bancroft, Mich.
Agilex, meanwhile, is the third company founded by Bob LaRose, a serial entrepreneur who died unexpectedly in 2010. LaRose founded his first company, Advanced Technology Inc., in 1976, and sold it in 1988 for $140 million. He then launched Integic Corp., which focused on the federal health care market, and built that company into a $180 million a year enterprise before selling it to Northrop Grumman Corp. for more than $300 million in 2005.
"Roger is going to help shape the second phase of Agilex," Nussbaum told FCW. "He's going to shape our strategy, and looking out over the next 24 months, how many small companies are looking out that far? This is the hardest time government and companies will ever see. We need Roger to help us be paranoid and see what we don't see, go where we wouldn't go, and give us credibility of how to wrap it up and do it."

As experts warned of the "dire" threats posed by outdated federal technology, lawmakers grilled top feds, debated workforce issues and inched closer to backing a $3.1 billion fix-it fund.
The agency is making strides in developing and deploying border technologies but still has some weaknesses.
Agencies have spent almost $23 billion on legacy IT over the past three years, according to reports to Congress. Is a revolving fund the answer?
The United Kingdom will go live with its governmentwide digital identity platform, GOV.UK Verify, in the coming days. The U.S. government will need a little more time.
What contracting officer representatives really think is needed to fix contract management.
Baker wasn't responsible for Flite, but he did kill it, the horrible VBA backlog (which is also about process change which was slow to come) nor Scheduling Redesign (not on his watch either). VISTA is being moved to Open Source, and don't blame the VA for the DOD being recalcitrant about change. They aren't famous for that in the health care world!
While I think Roger Baker did a wonderful job establishing his vision and socializing it within VA and with the industry press, he didn't do a very good job actually implementing it. The Baker years are largely a series of VA IT failures: VistA stagnation, the joint VA-DoD iEHR collapse, Scheduling Redesign, FLITE and the horrible VBA backlog. He is a good man, a hard worker and I wish him well, but he really doesn't leave the organization any better than he found it.
Agilex has seen senior talent pass through -- almost like a parking lot for folks between career moves, and not as a career move itself. Having said that, I hope Roger stays and makes a difference. I highly respect him as an individual, and for his public service in challenging assignments.

It is a traffic nightmare near the village.
If you get off at clifton or library (last stops) you are like 20 feet
Mr. Destructicity #
We had a brief discussion about this last year, too.
Mikhail #
Mikhail #
This is very true. I live near.
Steven #
The above is for heading west on the trail, toward Coraopolis. If you're heading east on the trail toward Clairton (where the trail has more on-road sections), just go to Library station and head east on Brownsville to Stewart Road. That section of Brownsville is part of one of the Montour's current on-road detours, as shown on their web site.
Mikhail #
I would not even bother to get on the trail. Just stay on Brownsville for 400 yards and it becomes Piney Fork Rd and then it becomes Peters Creek Rd. Piney Fork is pretty low traffic road. WPW South group uses it for rides all the time.
Steven #
The trail lets you avoid a hill on Piney Fork Road just east of Triphammer Road, and is also particularly beautiful in that area, running right alongside a stream. So it depends what you prefer.
As an alternative way to get from the T to the trail, you could get off at Lytle Station, ride east down Lytle to Library Road, go one block south on busy Library Road and into South Park, where you can take the bike lane all the way to the new connector to the Montour Trail that begins at Sesqui Drive. (I haven't ridden that part yet, but I hear it opened last year.) It's not as direct, and the connector is hillier than the trail proper, but the park's full of interesting sights.
Steven #
And if a bus instead of the T is OK, there are more options to reach the Montour. The newly restored 55 Glassport serves the Clairton end of the trail (and follows the route of the Clairton Connector that links to the GAP). The Y46 Elizabeth crosses the trail at around MP 44. The 29 Robinson goes right by the trail at MP 5.8, and 21 Coraopolis goes a mile from MP 0 (but note that the Coraopolis end of the trail will be closed this summer). You could also take the 29 Robinson, 28X Airport Flyer, or 24 West Park to Robinson Town Centre and ride down Park Manor Blvd to the trail at MP 4, though climbing up there is not so easy.

Although, thanks to the work of ACTA and Ikea, that section of road will be sharrow'ed in the next 2 months! Progress.

I was trying to secure my web site on the top line of the information I added http://.
initially just the name of the site was there example: messed up.com and I can no longer get into my admin page.
I am also locked out of my admin page and have tried both recommended solutions in the FAQ reset the plug-in section and it is still not working! Help!
Hi Donald,
I managed to fix the issue. Try this:
1. Clear your cache on all of the browsers you use, so that maybe internet explorer, mozilla and google chrome
2. Now, find the php file 'wordpress-https.php'. This should be on your host directory with the path: /wp-content/plugins/wordpress-https/
3. If you find this, then find the line:
//define('WPHTTPS_RESET', true);
If you find this, delete the // to make it:
define('WPHTTPS_RESET', true);
Save this change, and then do as the blog said and try and access some of the other pages, while doing this, have a look at the urls of the pages you are now hitting, do they say http://... or https://
As a clue, with the force ssl working they should all be saying https. (meaning they are now secure encrypted pages)
4. So, when you are hitting pages now you should be seeing them all with http:// as we have not recommented the change yet.
5. Try to log in to the admin panel now (remember we still have not recommented out the change yet)
6. If you can log in now, this is good as it means the force ssl has not permanently changed your wp admin settings
7. Go back to 'wordpress-https.php' and put the two // back into so it is again commented out and save.
8. Clear the cache, clear recent browser history, close the browser altogether.
9. Re open the browser, and try to login to the admin panel. If you can now log in, GREAT, check links on the site, they should all be https meaning your https plugin is working.
Let me know if this works. Good luck
Great job!
I must admit I did find a solution today.
I called Go Daddy and paid them to restore the database to the previous day before I messed up.
One lesson I did learn is to backup your database.

Two trapped in elevator after boat knocks out power
Published: Sunday, May 1, 2011 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, April 30, 2011 at 11:44 p.m.
HOUMA — Two people were trapped in a Houma hotel elevator for 45 minutes Saturday morning after a work boat struck a power line in the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, causing a power outage in the area.
The work boat, belonging to Otto Candies of Des Allemands, struck a power line near Sunset Avenue in Houma. The Houma Fire Department received a call just before 9 a.m. that two people were stuck in an elevator after power failed at the nearby Howard Johnson, 105 Lamar St., Houma, said Houma Fire District Chief Ernie Miller.
Firefighters pried open the doors and freed those trapped after about 45 minutes. No one was injured.
"They were a little shaken and annoyed, but no one was hurt," Miller said.
The boat clipped the power line with its antennae as it travelled the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway.
Power was cut out for about an hour to 50 percent of the City of Houma Power Plant's approximately 12,300 customers, mostly in Houma, while crews worked to remove the line off the boat, according to Tom Bourg, Terrebonne's utilities director.
A manager at the Howard Johnson refused to speak with a reporter about the power outage.
Staff Writer Nikki Buskey can be reached at 857-2205 or email@example.com.

A strange, pistonless engine in a strange-looking sports car proves to be an irresistible combination.
Ive always been attracted to engineering oddities. You know, things that get the job done in a different way than most. And Im especially partial to out-of- the-ordinary engines. So it just seems natural that sooner or later Id own a car with a rotary engine. And I do: a Mazda Cosmo Sport. A what? you say.
The two-seat Cosmo is a 60s-era small sports car powered by a 110-hp, two-rotor Wankel engine. The rotary was the brainchild of Felix Wankel, a self-taught German tinkerer who never went to college. He made the first rotary prototype in the late 50s for NSU, a German motorcycle and car manufacturer eventually bought out by Volkswagen. For a while in the 60s, it looked to some like the rotary would be the engine: light, small and only a handful of parts. Several carmakers paid Wankel for the rights to use the rotary. But they all ran into the same problem: The seals on the edges of the rotors didnt last. As the seals wore, power went down while fuel consumption and emissions went up.
Everyone but Mazda gave up trying to get the rotary to work in the real world. The company spent a great deal of money on the problem and, as the story goes, one engineer looked at the carbon at the end of his pencil and thought, Maybe carbon seals would work. Its an interesting comment on the culture of the company that the engineer who led the rotary team, Kenichi Yamamoto, would eventually rise to be its chairman. The rotary became reliable and a staple of Mazda products. The company is still developing the rotary and is even working on alternate-fuel versions.
But back in the 60s, the rotary was considered an automotive novelty. So was the Cosmo. Chances are youve never even seen one. Very few made it to the United States. For one thing, the Cosmo was built for the Japanese market--that means righthand drive. I saw my first Mazda Cosmo Sport 110S at an auto show. But it was overshadowed by the Toyota 2000 GT, which was featured in the 1967 James Bond movie You Only Live Twice--complete with a TV in the dashboard. So, at the car show, the poor little Mazda Cosmo sat alone in a corner, with its strange rotary engine and styling that was a mixture of American and Italian with a few Japanese elements thrown in. I was fascinated by it.
When Mazda came to the States, it was with little economy cars. Their ads said and Mazdas go hhhmmm. In the ads Japanese guys were dressed like the Beatles and Japanese girls wore go-go boots and they were playing wild music and jumping up and down.
With no pistons, crankshaft, camshaft or valvetrain, Wankels rotary engine seemed destined to be the internal-combustion engine of the future.
My Cosmo is a Series II that was once owned by an American U2 pilot living in Japan. It still has the pilots insignia and a window decal that says Japan Special Forces. He brought the car back to Florida. And I bought it from the guy who bought it from him. Restoring this car was a challenge. You cant get original Cosmo parts, at least not over here. Luckily, the car was in good shape, with all the trim. We changed as little as possible, including these two funky speakers in the back window. They look like accessory units that youd get in Circuit City or Radio Shack--sort of two black tissue boxes sitting on the back shelf. But I looked in the manual and theyre original.
The engine was completely shot. Since we dont have any experience with these at the Big Dog Garage, we figured wed consult the experts. So I called Dave Lemon at Mazdatrix in Signal Hill, Calif., whos been working on rotaries since 1982. We upgraded the Cosmos L10 engine to a 12A, with a custom intake manifold and a Weber side-draft carburetor. We updated the brakes and shocks and replaced the gearbox with one from an RX-7.
Amazingly, the Cosmo weighs only about 2200 pounds. So everything in it is exceptionally easy and light. The engine just keeps on revving. It has this motorboat-like wwwrrrwwwrrr at idle. When you put your foot in it, it makes you smile. It revs to 9500 rpm, easily. And the engine dates from the days when taking your MGB to 5200 rpm would cause rods to start popping through the valve covers.
The Cosmo is a uniquely styled Japanese interpretation of what a Western sports car should look like. Face it, its curious looking. But I like it. It doesnt really look like anything else.
And, it was ahead of its time. World War II was only 20 years behind us and the Japanese still had a reputation for making crappy products. What would you rather have? A Corvette? An XKE? Or a Japanese car with an engine that nobody ever heard of? And with a name like Cosmo?
So by the time production ended in 1972 the Cosmo Sport 110S had only had a run of about 1200 units. Mazda kept a Cosmo model in production for many years, but it was a less interesting car.
Mazdas were marketed as economy cars in the early 1970s, right in the midst of the first fuel crisis. But even at their best, rotaries were never noted for their fuel economy. Still, I have to hand it to Mazda. They eventually improved everything about the rotary engine. They were the first to make the rotary work. And theyre still selling them today.

Glove Box Liner Flocked Black 1964-1966 is rated out of 5 by 4.
Rated 3 out of 5 by Elissa75 from Difficult to fit Does the job but was very hard to fit, the screw holes didn't match correctly I even had to add one on the bottom left as there was not one there. Also had to cut out a piece to make it fit. All up though a good product for the price and better than the one that was in it when we bought the car.

Product Questions
The web install instructions apply to a liner for a 67-68 mustang, a completely different shaped liner. No way you can insert this liner through the glove box door unless I'm a complete idiot. It's way too big. So what's the right way - remove heater box?
You do not need to remove the heater box. Just fold the glove box in the middle of each side towards center to slide it through opening. Then release the folds and it'll expand to fill your glove box area.

Democrats have always been strangers to the truth and huge fans of revisionist history. And nothing states that more clearly than the intellectually deficient calls for a return to the "Clinton Tax Rates" to bring prosperity back to the country.
And of course, the de facto leader of the intellectually deficient is Barack Obama who used this false argument during his campaign and managed to fool more than half of the voters who actually believed his speeches.
According to the Iowa City Patch, back in August 2012 (and many more times) Obama said he wants:
"anyone making more than $250,000 a year to go back to the tax rates of the Bill Clinton era.
During that time, 23 million jobs were created, Obama told the crowd at the Herman Park Pavilion in Boone on Monday.
"And, we had the biggest budget surplus in history and the millionaires did pretty good, too,".
So, Obama and other Democrats would have you believe that because Clinton raised taxes, we had a wonderful economy and even balanced the budget and had a surplus.
Here are some facts about the tax increase.
Clinton signed his tax hike into law in September 1993, the same year he took office. It included an increase of the top marginal tax rate from 31 percent to 39.6 percent; repeal of the cap on the 2.9 percent Medicare tax, applying it to every dollar of income instead of capping it to levels of income like the Social Security tax; a 4.3 cent increase in the gas tax; an increase in the taxable portion of Social Security benefits; and a hike of the corporate income tax rate from 34 percent to 35 percent, among other tax increases.. (Source: US. Department of the Treasury, Office of Tax Analysis, "Revenue Effects of Major Tax Bills," September 2006)
Clinton even admitted he raised taxes too much saying "Probably there are people in this room still mad at me at that budget because you think I raised your taxes too much. It might surprise you to know that I think I raised them too much, too."
Oops. That runs counter to those calling for a return to the Clinton tax rates as a solution for the Obama stagnation.
Two years later, with reelection on the horizon and freshly stinging from the 1996 mid term trouncing by Republicans in the House and Senate, Clinton reversed course and lowered taxes, reformed welfare (that Obama has now gutted) and actually became a fiscal conservative. More or less.
Now Republicans, also wanting to take credit for the boom remind people that the economy had been expanding for almost two years when Clinton walked into office and the rate of expansion slowed after the tax increases. And that it was the fiscal restraint that actually led to a balanced budget and even a surplus.
And that much is true enough.
- The economy was slowed by Clinton's tax increase.
- After a tax reduction, the economy accelerated and we had a boom.
Democrats have revised history to ignore the Clinton tax reductions that helped get him elected to a second term and were one major factor in the economic boom. And Republicans have a right to claim credit for forcing the tax reductions from Clinton.
This chart tells the story:
As you can see, the economy grew far more consistently after the tax cuts. As soon as Clinton took office, the country took a nose dive. Clint0n's "tax the rich" promises took a toll on the economy just as soon as he took office. The economy gradually began to recover, but as the tax increases took hold, we saw another crash in economic activity. As soon as Clinton signaled that he raised taxes too much late in 1995, the promise of lower taxes alone made a positive impact.
But the one thing that people forget is that in the last couple of years of the 1990's, the Year 2000 "bug" saw a massive increase in economic activity as nearly every company, not to mention consumers, bought new computers and replaced their technology at unprecedented rates.
And the chart below shows the economic cliff that occurred in 2000 as 9/11 and the end of the Y2K buying spree combined to give the economy a one – two punch that had us in a major economic collapse.
The Bush tax cuts in 2001 and round 2 of the tax cuts in 2003 stopped the decline and the economy. Not to the Y2K levels, but to a more normal economic cycle.
So for those on the left that want to discount the effects of tax cuts on economic growth, the statistics simply do not back you up. Tax cuts – not increases – caused the Clinton boom. And under Bush, the tax cuts reversed the recession.
And for those now screaming that Republicans need to "reach across the aisle" keep in mind that the tax cuts that reversed the Recession of 2000 – 2001 came with the support of only 7 House Democrats and 2 Senate Democrats. Bipartisanship? Hardly!
But there is one trend during the Clinton years that might be worth considering today. While Clinton was under investigation and impeachment proceedings the economy flourished.
Just sayin'.

Development of a Low-Flutter Measurement Tape
Flutter measurement tapes sold to the professional community may contain residual levels of time-base errors that are too high to permit accurate measurements. This study presents a technique for recording tapes with very low residual flutter. A recorder with atransport xervo system was used to make high-speed recordings for measurements as standard speeds. The recorder has low inherent flutter, exceeding the manufacturer's specifications. The high-speed technique reveals that a significant improvement in the recording of flutter measurement tapes is possible, especially when the method is compared to the common procedure of recording at the playback velocity.

Patient Comments: Head Injury (Brain Injury) - Symptoms
What were the symptoms associated with a head injury in you or someone you know?
Comment from: Ric, 65-74 Male (Patient) Published: March 26
While I was in the Navy, I was hit in the head with a very large, heavy object. It required 5 stitches. To this day I have headaches that will last only about 5 to 10 seconds, but they almost knock me to my knees. After they are gone I am so weak I can hardly stand it. No one can tell me what kind of headaches I have.
Comment from: Deanie, 35-44 Male (Caregiver) Published: August 21
My son fell and hit his forehead on the edge of our concrete step 4 days ago. It caused a two inch laceration that required about ten stitches. His forehead swelled up and he looked similar to the cartoon character Beavis and Butthead with a protruding forehead. The emergency room (ER) doctor said he fractured his skull and right eye socket. The laceration was sort of in the middle of his forehead. The next day his right eye swelled shut and now is better and he says his vision is fine but he has two black eyes and underneath them there is a lot of red coloring as well as black and bluish coloring. I have never seen black eyes look like that and I'm a little concerned. The ER did not do a CT scan or MRI on him. They x-rayed his face but that is all. He has some memory loss and for a couple of days, did not remember the fall at all. He says his head doesn't hurt that much now but he is epileptic and I wonder why a CT scan or MRI wasn't done in the first place. I wonder if his neurologist should be contacted and told of this fall to see if more tests are needed. I'm really concerned that he might be bleeding in his brain.
Comment from: Patty, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: February 28
I missed a short step and fell against a cement wall, hitting my left forehead and back top, about one quarter of my head. This was yesterday. I had no immediate symptoms, but a large dent in my head and the pain from the blow. I have been icing it and taking Advil. At present my head is somewhat swollen and sore but I have no other symptoms.
Comment from: Wanda, 25-34 Female (Patient) Published: October 15
I received blunt force trauma to the back of my head. I did not lose consciousness. Five days later I started to sway all over the place, which never stopped till this day. I had a CT scan done but my MRI was clear. By day ten I suffered a migraine that presented itself like a stroke. For 3 months I vomited 10 times daily, went weak and numb throughout the body, had rapid heart rate and trouble breathing. I had extreme sweating sensations of water pouring all through my brain. I deteriorated 5 days later had a CT scan done.
Comment from: Dianer, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: October 23
A bin of clothes fell on my head top two hours ago. I put an ice pack on my head. I have a little headache but took Tylenol, I have ITP (idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura) and wondering if I should be concerned. The bin weighed about five to ten pounds.
Comment from: lori, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: July 11
I felt that my brain was rolling around in a sea of liquid after being struck forcibly on the side of the head.
Comment from: warbama24, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: April 17
I fractured my skull from a hard impact, I was unconscious, and when I became conscious I told my friends I was fine but I started talking out of my head so they called an ambulance. I know I was feeling sick, they strapped me down and I remember asking them to get me off my back because it was causing me to spin and I felt sick. That happened in 2006. I just left the hospital telling my friends I was fine, in reality I wasn"t, this happened out of town. I still have issues, I couldn"t lay down flat for 3 years after my accident, and till today I suffer from vertigo, eye issue, and fatigue. I just try and manage day to day, and I get different diagnoses from doctors, I have just given up.

Translation of piffle in Spanish:
- [colloquial]estupideces (feminine plural) [colloquial]paparruchas (feminine) [colloquial]Example sentences
- But there's a daunting heap of whimsical fairy-land nonsense and idiotic eastern-flavoured piffle to struggle through before you get to the bits you're likely to remember.
- I read a lot of facts most of which seemed absolute piffle, but I do think I ended up thinking that perhaps a properly controlled hunt is the best way of getting rid of a pest.
- A few relics of the pre-video area still survive, however, and Metro Cinema is bringing in two of the best examples of the rockumentary and one entertaining piece of piffle from those bygone days for your delectation.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Mar 01st, 2006
Running Time: 101
Company: Totally Tasteless Video
Cast: Cherry Swells, Jason (I), John Javier, Jeff Golden, Zenova, Lisa Sparxx, Crystal Lynn, Sugar Kain
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Specialty
Not allowing a few extras pounds to scare them from fucking on camera, five overweight women have at it like their bone rack counter parts. The first three scenes involve a minimal story, while the last two jump head first into sex. Zenova opens the DVD with a little zip in the form of a few noisy, but rather cute, pussy farts.
Yes, the women could stand to lose a few pounds, but describing them as fat is misleading. The women do flaunt large tits with some extra padding in the ass, though. The first three scenes are good and lengthy. However, the last two do not quite fit within the DVD, with the fourth appearing to have been shot years ago. Overall, the sex is run of the mill, but the camera does find its way into the meaty lipped pussies.
Retailing: Point out to the chubby chasers.

During a road bicycle race, like Giro d'Italia or Tour de France, cyclists have to share the road with the support cars and often ride just behind them. Don't they mind the exhausts from the cars, or do the exhausts inconvenience them? Do the cars have any special equipment to reduce the harmfulness of their exhausts (or, at least, is there regulation requiring the cars to fulfill some stricter norms)?
Having ridden in traffic, on 6 lanes roads, even on highways (with shoulders) I can say the exhaust is a non-issue. Considering how few support cars there actually are, compared to a 6 lane road, I would say it is not even noticeable.

PI-Fish: A Novel approach for discovering druggable sites in cancer proteins

AbstractDESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Project Summary. In the predominant sequence-to-function paradigm, 3-D structure is an obligatory . prerequisite for protein function. This paradigm dominates thinking about drug discovery. Even though over 100 counter examples not following this paradigm are described in literature, the functions associated with these non-folded (disordered) protein has been mostly ignored. To the contrary, the analysis of oncogenic proteins reveals that they possess more functional intrinsic disorder than other protein types. In many cases, the interaction of an oncoprotein with one or more binding partners involves disorder-to-order transitions. Recently, small molecules have been developed that block protein-protein interactions involving at least one oncoprotein. The main goal of the project is to develop a set of computational and experimental methods, called Protein Interaction (Pl)-fish, that can be used to find druggable protein-protein interaction sites involving disorder-to-order transitions in cancer-related proteins. This will be done via the development of a ranked list of potential protein-protein interactions that show promise for drug targeting. The list will be populated using our proprietary software, predictor of alpha-helical molecular recognition elements (alpha- MoRE predictor). The usefulness of the resulting predictions will be validated by showing that the indicated alpha-MoRE peptides can be used to fish out their binding partners from cell extracts. Pi-fish will help in the identification of duggable interactions and thereby provide the starting point for the development of drug leads. Relevance. Finding molecules that modulate the signaling activities of proteins involved in the development of cancer represents an extremely attractive approach to drug discovery. This approach, however, has been mostly disappointing in practice. The application of Pi-fish tool is suggested to be likely to dramatically accelerate the early stages of drug discovery because it is based on new structural principles. The long- range goal will be to use these results to develop an entirely new class of anti-cancer drugs.

Well over a decade ago, while researching my first book on the Society of Jesus, I happened to be sitting in an office at Jesuit headquarters in Rome. The occupant of the office was visibly agitated. Malachi Martin's book about the Jesuits had just appeared, and alarms were sounding up and down the curia. "No one," I said airily, "believes that crap." The regional assistant was not reassured. At stake was the damage that such propaganda could do to the Society and its operations.
Over the years I've collected a small number of books in the Malachi Martin mode. The titles change (one favorite is a salacious gothic number from 1853, A Night with the Jesuits in Rome) but the story, of shadowy power and preternatural iniquity, stays the same. Now my coauthor Eugene Bianchi and I find ourselves slotted in pretty much the same sinister category by James Martin in his review of Passionate Uncertainty: Inside the American Jesuits ("Societies of Jesus," Commonweal, May 3). Our book turns out to be scientifically shoddy, tendentious, and poorly written to boot.
The deficiencies James Martin attributes to the book are nonissues. One primary concern of Martin-his claim that "snowball" sampling guarantees biased results-draws on a potted social science that's been outmoded for years. Random samples were infeasible for the population of former Jesuits, about whom virtually nothing is known. Consider trying to draw a...
