Skip to comments.Romney quiet on health care because his plan is a dismal failure
Posted on 02/05/2008 10:03:19 AM PST by Antoninus
As he campaigns across the country this week in anticipation of the Super Tuesday primaries, Mitt Romney probably won't say much about the storied health-care plan he signed into law as governor of Massachusetts.
For one thing, it is hard to portray yourself as the ideological heir to Ronald Reagan when your health-care plan is virtually indistinguishable from the one proposed by Hillary Clinton. But another reason Romney may not want to talk about his plan is that it has been a dismal failure.
The Massachusetts plan was supposed to achieve universal health coverage while controlling costs. As Romney wrote in The Wall Street Journal, "Every uninsured citizen in Massachusetts will soon have affordable health insurance and the costs of health care will be reduced."
Or not.
Before RomneyCare was enacted, the number of uninsured Massachusetts residents was estimated at 618,000. Under the new program, about 300,000 previously uninsured residents have signed up for insurance. But of these, 169,000 are receiving subsidized coverage, proving once again that people are all too happy to accept something someone else is paying for. Another 70,000 people have also been enrolled in Medicaid, meaning a total of 239,000 people are receiving taxpayer-funded health insurance. Of those who have signed up for insurance since the plan was implemented, slightly more than half have received totally ''free'' coverage. Only 60,000 unsubsidized residents have bought insurance in order to comply with the mandate.
And though the subsidies have increased the number of Massachusetts citizens with insurance, as many as 300,000 Massachusetts residents have failed to buy the required insurance. Thus, half of those who were uninsured before the plan was implemented remain so.
The Massachusetts plan might not have achieved universal coverage, but it has cost taxpayers a great deal of money. It was originally projected to cost $1.8 billion in 2008, but it is now expected to exceed those estimates by $150 million to $400 million. Over the next decade, projections suggest that RomneyCare will cost $2-$4 billion more than was budgeted. Given that Massachusetts is already facing a projected budget deficit this year, the pressure to raise taxes, cut reimbursements to health-care providers, or cap insurance premiums will likely be intense.
The cost of the Massachusetts plan is also likely to continue rising, because it has failed to hold down the cost of health care. When Gov. Romney signed the bill, he claimed "a key objective is to lower the cost of health insurance for all our citizens and allow our citizens to buy the insurance plan that fits their needs." In actuality, insurance premiums in the state are expected to rise 10-12 percent this year - twice the national average.
A major cause is that the new bureaucracy the legislation created - the "Connector" - is not allowing Massachusetts citizens to buy insurance that "fits their needs." For example, the Connector's governing board decrees that by January 2009, no one will be allowed to have insurance with a deductible higher than $2,000 or total out-of-pocket costs of more than $5,000.
In addition, every policy will be required to provide prescription drug coverage, a move that could add 5-15 percent to the cost of insurance plans. A proposal to require dental coverage failed narrowly, but the dentists - and several other provider groups - have not given up the effort to force its inclusion. This comes on top of the 40 mandated benefits the state had previously required, ranging from in vitro fertilization to chiropractic services.
Romney now says that he cannot be held responsible for the actions of the Connector board, because it's "an independent body separate from the governor's office." But many critics of the Massachusetts plan warned him precisely against the dangers of giving regulatory authority to a bureaucracy that would last long beyond his adminis- tration.
Executives often blame others for the failures of their own policies, but that's not a tendency one looks for in a candidate. Romney claims he is a "true conservative" with the business expertise to "get things done." Judging by his experience with health-care reform, far from it.

Its pretty much knowledge now that Romney's health care plan in MA has been seriously compromised by the liberal governor now running the state.
Which is why electing a liberal like Juan McAztlan means we will get screwier programs than we had under Jorge Boosh
What is Juan McAztlan's health care plan? Free health care for illegals? Wait we already have that....how about more free health care for illegals?
And McCain is not lying? Or maybe Juan McCain really is Ronald Reagan reincarnate.
Enough fall guy politics; Mitt started the process, knowing full well that it would be corrupted by the state legislature and by succeeding office holders. For a 'business' guy, he's either an idiot or thinks we are.
I can pretend to hold out hope for some brokered convention where a real conservative is given the nomination, but that's just not going to happen. Even if it went to an open convention, our RINO leaders will choose whomever got the most popular votes or some other inane manner of pushing forward their big government supporters.
Yeah, Mitt's plan to pay for abortions (after a $50 co pay) was a real conservative one.
I was surprised he talked about it so much, so the idea that he doesn't talk about it is wrong.
Romney's mistake was to take so much credit for the final product, given how badly the democrats damaged it. Frankly, I don't think he understood exactly how badly they screwed it up, but he does now.
Fortunately, he's clearly said that isn't his plan for President. His plan as President is a good one, which will allow states to experiment and screw themselves over if they like, and the nation will benefit from testing different theories to see what works before we adopt some disastrous Hillary plan.
I beg to differ:
Romney's Massachusetts plan is not a "complete disaster" because the damage it has done and is doing is limited to one state, a state whose citizens have shown themselves time after time to be very tolerant of the most colossal government screw ups.
"Disaster" would be to have attempted to implement this plan or one like it on a national scale, as Shrillary wants.
The opportunity here, for Gov. Romney, is to come out and say, "OK, we screwed up! It was a bad idea, here's why, and we won't make a mistake like that again!"
But can you see him doing it?
No, Romney's healthcare plan was "seriously compromised" by the fact it was a stupid idea to begin with.
The sooner Mitt admits that, and says so publicly, the sooner we can move on to more pressing matters - like getting him nominated instead of Juan McInsane!
Whoever is elected President will have a democrat congress. They will pass a health care bill and you are kidding yourself if you think McVain will not compromise and ultimately enact some form of Romney health care package. McVain is more a lover than a fighter when he is dealing with his democrat chums in the Senate.
Well if it is identical to Hillarycare then he has no weakness as far as campaigning goes. If the media make healthcare an issue, he can say he has experience in implementing what Hillary merely proposes and has no experience with. And if the media want to say his program sucks, well then that doesn't really help Hillary's campaign for health care if it's the same program.
The fact that, just a couple weeks ago, McLame said words to the effect that "I don't really understand economics."?
You want an "economic plan" from a guy like that?
That's what we have now, and I can't help but think we can do better.
No doubt you're right.
If Romney couldn't see that this was inevitable he's too stupid to be President.
Government managed markets have never worked. They are not working, now. And, they won't work under plans such as these.
The government needs to get the hell out of healthcare, completely. The dramatic increases in health care costs didn't start until the feds got involved back in the late 1950's and 1960's.
Time for a return to constitutional mandates...
If that's true, then this is an unmitigated disaster but not unexpected with socialized medicine. I wonder where the author got that figure from?
MA was supposed to be the perfect storm for universal care; a small population overall and a very small uninsured population, a high percentage of government employees already receiving coverage, liberal voters ....
In short, a mini-Canada.
If it doesn't work here, how in the hell will it work in California?
If this Liberal is around in July, he will be yelling from the high heavens that he is the NEW REAGAN.
The Gov. Mitt Romeny Abortion costs $50.00.
What is the cost of an abortion in Mass now under that liberal governor?
Having said that, strategically, it is better if he knocks off McCain in CA--it's all very confusing...
Romney can keep his communist, liberal Hildabeast care. The only one we sadly have left to vote for is *gulp* Huckabee, but he's a dang sight better than the other two. I will never vote for Romney. At least Huckabee has never been pro-abortion, Myth Romney's plan even PAID for abortions.
I can pretend to hold out hope for some brokered convention where a real conservative is given the nomination, but thats just not going to happen. Even if it went to an open convention, our RINO leaders will choose whomever got the most popular votes or some other inane manner of pushing forward their big government supporters.
Given Romney's decision to contest the southern states instead of leaving them to Huckabee/McCain contests, I think you are right. The best hope we have is a few "favorite sons" arising in later contests to win the delegates for thier states to an uncommitted status . . . and who could then act as kingmakers at the convention.
The problem is that any flavor of government health care we get will latter be expanded and end up costing us much more than originally promised.
Come on, the RomenyCare Co-Pay for an Abortion is a whopping Fifty Bucks!
..we're on the same page--again ;- )
And yet Romney is looking good next to McCain and the Huckster. That's how bad the GOP is now.
That plus free citizenship!
Don't forget his assertions that the pharmaceutical companies are all corrupt and need much more stringent regulation.
McCain is a populist, which is another way of saying he believe in big government regulation. However, he has also argued for extending entitlement benefits to illegal aliens, so saying he only supports more regulation might be selling his liberalism short.
He does argue for spending cuts. I just don't see where he would cut since he seems to support so many social programs.
Surprisingly enough the one thing he didn't fight was the Clinton administration gutting our military.
Just look at how low we've sunk. We are now reduced to arguing over which one is less awful -- and getting angry with each other about it!
This is bad.
Bears Repeating...
"Dismal Failure"
Some of us think the border and free speech are big issues. We're not enthused about Romney, but do not want the party destroyed by a crazy old man who hates conservatives and conservatism.
This conservative is. You McCain apologists need a dose of history as to why we won't ever support McCain and would rather hold our nose for Romney:

Border with Myanmar to be secure by 2018: BSF

Security till the last mile along the porous Myanmar border will only be a reality by 2018, according to a time frame set by the Border Security Force for itself after it gets the Cabinet nod to replace Assam Rifles next month.
The Assam Rifles, whose operational control is under the Indian Army, is currently positioned around 70-80 kilometres within the Myanmar border, which leaves many patches unmanned.
Since Myanmar is a friendly country, armed forces cannot be deployed right along the border, prompting the government to replace it with the BSF, which is a police force, and currently guards the eastern and western border fronts.
Due to the rough terrain, the BSF says most border outposts will be air-maintained. For this they are already in the process of acquiring eight Mi-17 helicopters. "The new fleet of Mi-17 choppers that we are procuring will be used in this part of the border. We expect to get the choppers by the end of 2014," said Subhash Joshi, Director General, BSF.
India and Myanmar share 1,643 km of unfenced border and permit free movement up to 16 km across the border, making it extremely porous. The border runs along hilly terrain which grossly lacks basic infrastructure and provides cover to activities of various Indian insurgent groups.
Officials said the BSF was giving final touches to the blueprint detailing the infrastructure and human resources required to be present at the border.
"The Ministry of Home Affairs has asked us to prepare a draft detailing our requirements. A team had gone there to assess the situation... we will take a fortnight or so to submit the report after which the Cabinet will take up the matter," said Joshi.
The officer said they had projected a requirement of 41 battalions (around 41,000 men) to guard this border. Presently around 46,000 Assam Rifle personnel are posted there.

There are at least two bands named Waxwing.Read More...
1. In 1996, Rocky Votolato (singer/guitarist), along with friends Rudy Gajadhar (drums) and Andrew Hartley (bass), started playing under the name Waxwing. Rocky's younger brother Cody (The Blood Brothers) soon joined the band on second guitar, and the band recorded their debut 7" for Henry's Finest Recordings. In 1999, Second Nature Recordings released their first full-length, entitled 'For Madmen Only'. Blending straight-up rock with elements of post-hardcore, and Cody's metal reminiscent guitaring, Waxwing soon established a strong local following. It was a feat built upon with their two succeeding albums 'One For the Ride' (2000) and 'Nobody Can Take What Everybody Owns' (2002).
2. Waxwing was a heavy metal band that released an EP called "Appetizer" in 1988. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.

Houston Chronicle NFL reporter John McClain is reporting that former Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel will not put his throwing arm on display for NFL scouts at the Texas A&M pro day event on March 5, and will instead throw for scouts at an on-campus workout three weeks later.
It's not uncommon for college quarterbacks to hold on-campus, private workouts for NFL scouts.
Johnny is out in San Diego training for the NFL Scouting Combine with quarterback coach George Whitfield Jr.
Quarterbacks are scheduled to work out on Sunday, Feb. 23, less than two weeks before Texas A&M's Pro Day on March 5th.
Two other quarterbacks who have been invited to the combine, Alabama's AJ McCarron and Fresno State's Derek Carr, have not decided whether or not they will throw at the event.

This was a great read, although a sad one. It's about a nine-year-old German boy named Bruno, who is unaware of everything going on in his country during World War II, and the Holocaust. His father gets a new job and they move to another part of Germany to a place he pronounces as Out-With, although the reader knows it as Auschwitz, the concentration camp, where millions of Jews were murdered. He sees the people in striped pajamas outside of his bedroom window, and wonders why they are there. He eventually meets a Jewish boy on the other side of the fence named Schmuel, and they become the best of friends. I know this story is a work of historical fiction, but I don't know if it is believable that a nine-year-old boy would be so naive as to not know what is going on outside of his window.
Some books classified as children's literature or YA fiction transcend the label, and are as enjoyable or interesting for adults as for younger readers. A larger number of children's books, however, are most suitable for children. That does not make them inferior literature, it just means they do what it says on the tin.
The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, in my opinion, belongs to the latter category. It's not bad, but I have trouble understanding the fuss over this book. I would probably have liked it, perhaps even loved it, if I had read it 15-20 years ago. Now, whilst I did not dislike it, I found the style rather unengaging, and the story a bit too weak and predictable.
Bruno, the son of a Nazi officer, moves from Berlin with his family to the country. He becomes friendly with a boy in striped pajamas who lives behind a wire fence. They develop a friendship. This book does a great job of explaining the holocaust through the eyes of a 9 year old.
Wow! Such a beautiful and simplistic narrative, with stunning parallels. This book really took me by surprise.
This story depicted two young boys during the holocaust. One was a Jewish boy in a concentration camp, and another was the son of a head Nazi under Hitler's command. it is and emotional story of how the boys become friends with the fence between them. It has a tragic ending and a message for the reader that people judge each other for all the wrong reasons. The boy did not realize or care that the other was Jewish, but wanted to be his friend because he was kind.
This was a very emotional book to read. I ended up crying in the end. I did not connect to it personally, but to think about how this kind of situation, at one point, was very real, hit me hard.
This book is good for middle school students. It can help students learn about the history of the holocaust and friendship.
"Powerful and unsettling.......As memorable an introduction to the subject as The Diary of Anne Frank."
"Deeply affecting......Beautiful and sparely written"
Aunque el uso habitual de un texto como éste es describir las características de la obra, por una vez nos tomaremos la libertad de hacer una excepción a la norma establecida. No sólo porque el libro que tienes en tus manos es muy difícil de definir, sino porque estamos convencidos de que explicar su contenido estropearía la experiencia de la lectura. Creemos que es importante empezar esta novela sin saber de qué trata. No obstante, si decides embarcarte en la aventura, debes saber que acompañarás a Bruno, un niño de nueve años, cuando se muda con su familia a una casa junto a una cerca. Cercas como ésa existen en muchos sitios del mundo, sólo deseamos que no te encuentres nunca con una. Por último, cabe aclarar que este libro no es sólo para adultos; también lo pueden leer, y sería recomendable que lo hicieran, niños a partir de los trece años de edad.
Escolhi ler este livro porque consegue abordar a época Nazi de uma forma simples, não deixando, no entanto, de ser cruel e realista. Foca a inocência de duas crianças, que apesar de pertencerem a culturas diferentes, conseguem viver uma amizade inocente num mundo ignorante. Recomendo-o pois ele consegue transmitir que somos todos seres humanos e que devemos ser respeitados independentemente dos nossos ideias, costumes e cultura, porque se não o fizermos podemos magoar quem realmente amamos.

This work was set in Berlin, 1942. When Bruno returns home from school one day, he discovers that his belongings are being packed in crates. His father has received a promotion and the family must move from their home to a new house far far away, where there is no one to play with and nothing to do. A tall fence running alongside stretches as far as the eye can see and cuts him off from the strange people he can see in the distance. But, Bruno longs to be an explorer and decides that there must be more to this desolate new place than what meets the eye. While exploring his new environment, he meets another boy whose life and circumstances are very different to his own, and their meeting results in a friendship that has devastating consequences. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.The Boy in the Striped Pajamas is now a major motion picture (releasing in November 2008).

Supporters of the Jesus Video Project continue to raise money to send the Jesus Video out to area homes. Organizers said in September they had hoped to send the movie to 99,000 households in the Panhandle. Although organizers said funding has been "difficult," videos are set to be delivered to 1,300 households in the 79101 ZIP code area in mid-November.
The Globe-News asked five clergymen to view the film and give their opinions. Results were mixed.
Scott L. Raef, director of the Catholic Student Center at West Texas A&M University, said he thought the movie gives viewers "one gospel's version of the setting and context of the miracles, teachings and events of Jesus' ministry."
Raef said he understood the producers' dilemma as they were not able to include all the stories and miracles in Luke's gospel.
"After all, to include everything would have been a daunting, if not impossible, task," he said. Raef commended the effort to tell the story of Christ in "different, new and various ways" and said the video might inspire and elicit a greater interest in Jesus and his story.
"Perhaps those who have already heard the story may hear it again in a new way," he said. "My only hope is that the 'Jesus Video' project would include the efforts of all who bear the name of Christ so that the fullness of the Christian heritage will not be as limited to one depiction as is the video itself."
Scott Green, youth pastor of Valleyview Church of the Nazarene, said he thinks the "Jesus" film has been a great tool for global evangelism, calling it "the most accurate portrayal of Jesus Christ that is currently on film."
He said the Nazarene Church has been sponsoring the worldwide viewing of the Jesus film for several years now and it has reached many people. This film has been one of the strongest evangelistic tools ever used in today's church.
Jeff Raines, associate pastor of First Baptist Church, said he thinks the Jesus video faces the same problem as any movie adaptation because the video doesn't have as much texture and detail as the book.
"Given that shortcoming, however, I think the Jesus video is very faithful to the gospel accounts. The acting and production are very good. The setting is realistic. Many American-made movies about Jesus mistakenly cast him as a Caucasian, but the actors in the Jesus Video look Middle-Eastern," Raines said.
"I certainly don't believe that a video medium will ever replace Scripture," Raines said. "But the Jesus video project can play a vital role in the church's efforts to spread the good news about Christ."
Photius Bouton, priest at St. John Prodromos Greek Orthodox Church, dismissed the movie on many levels, criticizing the acting, character development, dialogue and lack of depth of the story of Gospel of St. Luke. He said the movie presents Christ's life in a "dull and boring way," leaves out some of Christ's major teachings and is scripturally inaccurate.
Bouton said the film "actually takes away any sense of reverence and leads one to feel they are watching a totally fictionalized tale, which to be blunt, due to leaving out major portions of the life and teaching of Jesus as depicted in the Gospel of St. Luke, lacks a point."
David Lough, minister of University Church of Christ in Canyon, said he thought the movie was incoherent and, like Bouton, criticized it in many areas. Lough said it is "a bad made-for-television movie" that lacks drama and texture and sends confusing messages about Christ.
"As one of my university students said about it a couple of years ago, " 'Jesus' is just flat, like a 3-day-old Coke," he said.
"The movie never really answers the question, 'Why should I care whether or not I know about this Jesus?' That is the dramatic failure of the entire production," Lough said.
Lough said he didn't think the filmmakers thought of the film as an evangelism tool, though.
"Nevertheless, what comes out of the movie is a Jesus who is more magician and wonder-worker than Son of God," he said. "The evangelistic message that is imprinted on the viewer is that 'just a little talk with Jesus makes it right.' The powerful message that Luke attempts to deliver, that of repenance and obedience to the Son of God, is completely lost."

Vt. home destroyed after 2 fires
ESSEX Investigators say problems with a chimney pipe and with a heating system caused two separate fires to the same house in Essex.
The first fire happened Monday. The fire department was able to quickly put out the fire. The family that lived in the house was able to escape without injury.
A larger fire involving the entire house happened Tuesday afternoon. The structure could not be saved and firefighters estimated the damage was well over $200,000.
Investigators determined the first fire was caused by an issue with the chimney pipe. The second fire happened at the opposite end of the house and was most likely the result of an issue with a separate heating system. Neither fire was considered suspicious.MORE IN This Just InCASTLETON Rutland Post 31 pitcher Andy Kenosh called it mojo.

You left out a lot of good stuff, like woman finishes her mission and leaves for home with engagement ring, and a clear statement that the wedding not only happened 7 days after man returned from his mission but without them ever having gone on an actual date (maybe they exaggerate, and those P-day activities really were different then, as Grandma claims)]]>
Yeah that could make for some uncomfortable breakfast moments. So how did you sleep? Uh fine???]]>
Lamonte, I did not know about that part of the story but it further illustrates what a remarkable week it was.]]>
I wanted to add one additional detail however – just two days before Isabel hit, Man's family filled their two 25 gallons water tanks with fresh water. For a family with a weak preparedness record this proved to be monumental. When power was knocked out at the two county pumping stations, we woke-up to no water in a house with 16 people! Eek! But the water in the tanks was used primarily for flushing toilets (very important) until the country water return later that afternoon. The neighbors were impressed.
Happy Anniversary!]]>
Another September 17 wedding story.
Man serves in US army for three years, arriving home in July 1946. In September begins freshman year at Caltech.
Summer 1947. Interviews for mission. Withdraws from Caltech, which will grant only one-year leave.
Travels to SLC for general authority interview, required then for all missionaries. Meets with Elder Benson. He knew the man's father, a stake president. "Where would you like to serve your mission?" "England. Ancestral home, etc." "There's a group at the Mission Home right now, if you want to join them it could be arranged." "Well, I'd like to have a chance to see my parents before I leave." "How about Canada, then? You could visit your folks and come back in time." "Ok."
A few weeks later, letter from 47 East South Temple, calling to Canadian Mission.
Sometime after arriving in Canada. Meets Sister Hughes, from Los Angeles.
Sometime in 1948. Sister Hughes completes mission and returns home.
Early 1949. Sister Hughes makes the trip to the man's Arizona hometown, meets his parents.
March 1949. The man's mother passes away.
September 10, 1949. The man returns from his mission.
September 17, 1949. Friday. The Arizona Temple is closed, but the temple president, friends of the groom's family, opens it for that one day for one wedding.
Later that month, readmitted to Caltech.
1956. Leaves Caltech with BS, PhD, and three children.
Happy 59th, Mom and Dad!
(You're in great company, CJ! Good things happen on September 17.)]]>

State income tax
Tax cut, anyone? Well, not anyone, but most people would apparently get one under this plan backed by William Gates Sr.
Tim Eyman is for lower taxes. Wonder if he'll sign the petition?
"It is the Holy Grail of the progressive movement," Eyman said of the income tax. "I really think they probably should have had it [the news conference] in church because it requires so much faith in something. But I believe it's fundamentally a Pandora's box."
Hmm .. sounds ilke a "no."

SOURCE: Natella, Arthur A., Jr. "Saint Theresa and Unamuno's San Manuel Bueno, mártir." Papers on Language and Literature 5, no. 4 (fall 1969): 458-64.
In the following essay, Natella finds parallels between St. Theresa and the character of Angela in Saint Emmanuel the Good, Martyr.
Miguel de Unamuno's last novel, San Manuel Bueno, mártir is a pessimistic and provocative tale of the conflict between faith and reason in an unbelieving priest who despite his own doubt attempts to maintain spiritual values in the lives of his flock. Don Manuel is a martyr who expends his energy in giving spiritual comfort to the humble peasants of the Spanish village of Valverde de Lucerna while he himself suffers in the mortal struggle between his inability to believe and his deep dedication to this evangelical work.
Various symbolic and analogical references are skillfully interwoven...

We investigate here the spectrum of gravitational collapse endstates when arbitrarily small perfect fluid pressures are introduced in the classic black hole formation scenario as described by Oppenheimer, Snyder and Datt (OSD) (Oppenheimer and Snyder in Phys Rev 56:455, 1939; Datt in Zs f Phys 108:314, 1938). This extends a previous result on tangential pressures (Joshi and Malafarina Phys Rev D 83:024009, 2011) to the physically more realistic scenario of perfect fluid collapse. The existence of classes of pressure perturbations is shown explicitly, which has the property that injecting any smallest pressure changes the final fate of the dynamical collapse from a black hole to a naked singularity. It is therefore seen that any smallest neighborhood of the OSD model, in the space of initial data, contains collapse evolutions that go to a naked singularity outcome. This gives an intriguing insight on the nature of naked singularity formation in gravitational collapse.

20 Dates
- Studio: Fox Searchlight Pictures

Critic Reviews
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
It doesn't take a foolish romantic to hope that Myles and Elisabeth live happily ever after. The world just isn't ready for 20 More Dates.
In 20 Dates Myles Berkowitz strings together one embarrassing moment after another and triumphs in a culture characterized by actorly artifice.
The picture is intriguing and obnoxious in equal measure; even Berkowitz gets tired of the game before it's over, but there are some laughs and surprises along the way.
Provides some great laughs, but founders when it tries to tackle more serious issues. Entitled "10 Dates," it might have been a much better film.
Raging ego aside, the penny-ante hucksterism of his I'm-going-on-dates-to-get-famous-making-a-movie-about-dates approach is too cloying and opportunistic to bear.

Confirmed: Geoff Johns Is the New President of DC Entertainment
Comic Books, Film, TV
The Marvel Experience, the $30 million high-tech traveling theme park, has abruptly come to the end of the road.
The Associated Press reports the "hyper-reality" show announced Sunday that Philadelphia, intended as the kickoff of its summer tour, will be its only stop. Planned multi-day runs in New York, Chicago and St. Louis have been canceled, but no reason has been given. Refunds will be available.
Fun Home, the musical based on Alison Bechdel's acclaimed 2006 graphic memoir, this morning scored 12 Tony Award nominations, including Best Musical, tying with An American in Paris to lead the field.
Adapted by Lisa Kron and Jeanine Tesori, the stage production, like the graphic novel, is an account of Bechdel's childhood with a closeted gay father, his apparent suicide and her own coming out as a lesbian.
Outside of, say, Fun Home, Annie, Lil Abner and You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, American comics don't have a great history of stage adaptations (let's not even mention Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark). However, it's another matter entirely in Japan, where plays based on popular manga are fairly common.
It should come as no surprise then that Naruto, one of the bestselling series in history, has debuted as a musical. Appropriately titled Live Spectacle Naruto, the production has released a new 30-second promo spot, featuring the song "Hikari Oikakete" ("Chasing the Light") by Flow. It certainly appears faithful to Masashi Kishimoto's manga and the subsequent anime; it actually looks fun.
No sooner will a stage adaptation of Stan Sakai's Usagi Yojimbo close in London than another play based on another comic will open in Bristol.
On Jan. 7, the Bristol Old Vic Young Company will debut its production of The Gigantic Beard That Was Evil, Stephen Collins' acclaimed 2013 graphic novel about a man with a boring job who suddenly begins to grow a beard quickly becomes so massive and uncontrollable that it upends the staid order of the island.
Southwark Playhouse in London has released a trailer for its Christmas show, a stage production of Stan Sakai's long-running historical fantasy Usagi Yojimbo.
Adapted by Stewart Melton for ages 7 and up, the play opened Nov. 28 to positive reviews, with particular attention given to its production design and original live music (you get a little taste of both in the trailer). It closes Jan. 4.
While Usagi Yojimbo may not be what comes to mind when you think "Christmas show," in previous years Southwark Playhouse has staged Howl's Moving Castle and Anansi: An African Fairy Tale for the holidays. So, more kids' fare than Christmas fare.
All 13 characters have been revealed for The Marvel Experience interactive tour, and at least a couple may surprise you.
As depicted in the above image, debuted by Yahoo, the usual suspects — Spider-Man, Iron Man, Captain America, Thor and the Incredible Hulk — will be joined by Wolverine, Black Widow, Nick Fury, Maria Hill, The Vision, She-Hulk, Iron Fist and Black Panther.
"This is the only place you'll see them together, and we're proud of that," Rick Licht, CEO of tour producer Hero Ventures, is quoted as saying. That's in part because the film rights to Wolverine and Spider-Man are held by Fox and Sony, respectively.
The first cities and dates have been revealed for The Marvel Experience, billed as "a first-of-its-kind, hyper-reality attraction."
At a press conference held today at the Marvel booth at New York Comic Con, producer Hero Ventures announced the tour will hold previews Dec. 12-Jan. 2 in Phoenix before staging its world premiere Jan. 9 in Dallas. From there, it will head to San Diego and San Francisco before moving to the East Coast. Additional stops will be announced later; the tour will remain in each city for about three weeks.
The husband-and-wife team of Fred Van Lente and Crystal Skillman have launched a Kickstarter campaign to help fund King Kirby, a play about the life of legendary comics creator Jack Kirby. Characterized as "a real-life Adventures of Kavalier & Klay," the production is set to be staged at Brooklyn's Brick Theater as part of the Comic Book Theater Festival on June 20, the day the campaign ends.
"King Kirby has been a long-term passion project of mine," Van Lente, known for his work on such comics as Action Philosophers, Archer & Armstrong and The Incredible Hercules, said in a statement. "With Crystal's help, it's down on paper. Now, with your help, we'll bring this crucial piece of comics history to life on stage."
Feld Entertainment has released a new look behind the scenes of Marvel Universe Live!, complete with explosions, flipping S.H.I.E.L.D. vehicles, dirtbikes, a skateboarder, Captain America's flying shield … and a cameo by Marvel Chief Creative Officer Joe Quesada.
Employing a combination of state-of-the-art special effects, pyrotechnics and aerial stunts, the multimillion-dollar arena tour show centers on the Cosmic Cube, which has been split into pieces by Thor to keep the device out of the wrong hands. But when Loki hatches a plan to clone the item's powers, the Marvel superheroes must unite for a globe-spanning mission to secure all of the pieces before the villains can.
In the wake of the uproar in South Carolina over her graphic memoir Fun Home, cartoonist Alison Bechdel has joined with the producers and cast of the musical adaptation to bring the acclaimed off-Broadway show to the College of Charleston.
The Post and Courier reports tickets went on sale Tuesday for two concert-version performances to be held April 21 at Memminger Auditorium; about 750 were sold within the first 24 hours. The show, which premiered in September, was announced this week as finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
USA Today has confirmed story details for Marvel Universe Live!, the upcoming arena tour show from Marvel and Feld Entertainment.
Employing a combination of state-of-the-art special effects, pyrotechnics and aerial stunts, the production centers on the Cosmic Cube, which has been split into pieces by Thor to keep the device out of the wrong hands. But when Loki hatches a plan to clone the item's powers, the Marvel superheroes must unite for a globe-spanning mission to secure all of the pieces before the villains can. Early teasers for Marvel Universe Live! had hinted at the Cosmic Cube as a plot element.
Hero Ventures has unveiled concept art of the 2-acre domed complex for The Marvel Experience, its $30 million interactive tour set to launch in the spring.
Announced in August, the traveling attraction is characterized as a "first-person superhero adventure," with audiences becoming part of the action through state-of-the-art multimedia technology, including a 4D motion ride and 3D-animated features.
The Marvel Experience is designed to resemble a S.H.I.E.L.D. mobile command center, with the Dome reach more than six stories in height. Inside, there will be a maze of connected domes that lead guests through interactive games and original animated short films that lead to the centerpiece, the motion ride.
In an ending that The New York Times could only describe as "fitting," the $75 million musical Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark closed its tumultuous Broadway run on Saturday with a technical glitch — one that required a crew member to run on stage during the performance to deal with a door that didn't shut properly.
But in the grand scheme of the show's three-year run — 1,268 performances in all — marked by cast injuries, a ballooning budget, early scathing reviews and the unceremonious firing of director and co-creator Julie Taymor, the snafu was minor. Still, "fitting" is the perfect word for it.
Producers announced in November (nearly three years after previews began) they would close the show Jan. 4, with plans to reopen in 2015 in Las Vegas, where they hope the most expensive production in Broadway history will be able to turn a profit.
We've seen the Avengers, Spider-Man and his rogues, a cadre of villains and a quartet of superheroines, and now Marvel and Feld Entertainment have debuted the first look at the X-Men from the upcoming arena show tour Marvel Universe Live!
CraveOnline has character designs for Cyclops and Wolverine, while the Marvel Universe Live! Facebook page debuts Storm.
"Storm's look has evolved in many directions," costume designer Cynthia Nordstorm explained. "I mixed her flair with hints of Egyptian royalty. Pairing leather and boots really sets her up to 'rock' alongside her fellow X-Men."
Launching in July, Marvel Universe Live! will bring Marvel's most iconic heroes and villains to 85 cities across North America in the show's first two years. The live-action production will integrate a character-driven storyline with state-of-the-art special effects, pyrotechnics, aerial stunts and martial arts for what producers say will "redefine the live show experience."

Student Activity
You have just received your high school diploma and are about to enter the real world. You and your partner(s) will have a minimum wage job. Your assignment is to create a realistic budget. An even bigger challenge is to live within that budget. If your expenses exceed your income, you will need to determine where to cut back your monthly expenses in order to "make ends meet." You will also encounter unexpected monthly expenses which will force you to adjust your monthly budget. Finally, you will write a report using Microsoft Word & create a Powerpoint, evaluating the activity.
A budget starts with knowing how much money you bring in each month. This is called your income. Expenses are the opposite of income. Money is spent on the things you need or want. Your expenses need to be less than your monthly income. If not you will need to change your spending habits. Also, if your savings is not at least 10% of your income, you will need to adjust your spending habits.
STEP 1 Open & Save Budget to Your F Drive
SOFTWARE: Microsoft Excel
STEP 2 Estimate Expenses
SOFTWARE: Internet Explorer, Microsoft Excel
WHAT TO DO: Consult the internet to get an idea of how much it costs to rent a house or an apartment in an area you would like to live. Type in the monthly rent (C10) and create a hyperlink in your spreadsheet (E10) to document your source.
Research three different vehicles (new or used) that you would consider owning using the Auto Loan Calculator. (Our zip code is 35023.) One of the options must be under $15,000. Configure your loan for 5 years (60 months) at 7.28% APR (interest). Anyone that owns a car must add an additional $125 per month to account for auto insurance, repairs, license, registration, taxes, gas and oil changes. After you research car buying, if you decide not to buy a car, you may pay $100 per month for use of public transportation.
Step 2 Part 1 Housing (www.apartmentfinder.com) (You will need to type out a memo to me informing me of your housing decision.)
Step 2 Part 2 Transportation (see above)
Step 2 Part 3 Health Insurance (www.ibcbsal.com) Type in your D.O.B and zip code. Choose just for me. You and your partner(s) need to choose either the 1500 plan deductible, 1000 plan deductible, 750 plan deductible, or the 500 plan deductible. Whatever plan you choose you will need to multiply the monthly cost of the plan times how many people you have in your group. For instance if you choose the 1500 plan deductible and you have 2 people in your group you will need to multiply $96.00 X 2 to get the cost of your health insurance. Remember, the deductible is the amount you have to pay out-of-pocket for expenses before the insurance company will begin to cover all or a portion of the remaining costs.
Step 2 Part 4 Phone, Cable, Clothing, Entertainment, Misc., Pet & Pet Supplies (www.att.com www.charter.com, etc. )
DON'T FORGET TO CONSIDER CHARITABLE GIVING (This includes places such as your church, non-profit organizations and education foundations. It does not include gifts for birthdays, Christmas, or other similar occasions.) (C8)
STEP 3 Create a Food Budget
SOFTWARE: Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word
WHAT TO DO: To determine your monthly food budget, open a Word document and choose Insert Table from the Table menu. Design a Weekly Menu table similar to the one in below.
Use this table to write down what you plan to eat and drink at each meal for one week. Be sure to include snacks. Now, figure out what you must buy at the grocery store to produce this menu. Complete your grocery list www.netgrocer.com and shop for the items you need for your weekly menu based on your grocery list . Click on buy to add these items to your shopping cart. When you are finished shopping you can print out the items in your shopping cart. Multiply by 4.5 the cost of the items in your shopping cart to get an estimate of your monthly food budget. Type this number into the food category (C14) of your monthly budget. Make sure you include restaurants and even that cup of coffee you bought this morning if you plan on eating out.
Step 3 Part 1: Create Weekly Menu
Step 3 Part 2: Complete Grocery List
Step 3 Part 3: Go to www.netgrocer.comand shop for the items on your grocery list. Add the items on your grocery list to your shopping cart. Make sure you the correct quantity. When you have finished shopping for your weekly menu get me to check your work. If you have completed this correctly you will then have my approval to print out your shopping cart. Then you will multiply the amount in your shopping cart by 4.5. This amount will go in C14 and represent your estimated monthly food budget.
STEP 4 Evaluate Your Budget
SOFTWARE: Microsoft Excel
WHAT TO DO: Once you have typed in all of your monthly expenses, your worksheet will show you whether or not you are "making ends meet." Do your expenses exceed your income? If so, you must decide where to cut back so that your expenses do not exceed your income. Now select one of the unexpected financial problems listed below. Click cell A8 and type Charitable Giving + Unexpected Expenses. Choose one of the unexpected financial problems below and add this amount to the amount you already have in C8.
(UFP 1) You forget to pay our phone bill and your phone service is shut off.
To turn it back on, the phone company wants $200.
(UFP 2) The lease on your apartment is up for renewal and the landlord
wants a 50% increase. How much will your increase be? How will
you adjust your budget to account for this increase?
(UFP 3) Your dog gets sick and the medicine costs $150.
(UFP 4) Your car gets a flat tire and it costs $175 to have it repaired.
(UFP 5) You get a speeding ticket for $200.00.
(UFP 6) Two of your relatives have to move in with you because they were laid-off from their jobs. This causes your food budget to increase by $130.00
Using Word, explain how you would adjust your budget to account for this unexpected expense. Explain your rationale. Then adjust your budget in your Microsoft Excel worksheet to account for this additional monthly expense. Also, explain in Word how your budget meets the Davey Ramsey guidelines below. Save the document as Evaluation of Budget on your F drive.
|Dave Ramsey
|Charitable Giving
|Debt Payments
|Misc. (Personal,Recreation,Life Ins.)
STEP 5 Written Report/PowerPoint Presentation
SOFTWARE: Microsoft Word/Microsoft PowerPoint

Perfect match for my white iPhone!I like all natural materials, they look very touchable. Moreover this case reminds me sea and wooden villas on the beach. Perfect match for my white iPhone!
Aesthetic & StrongThis case is divine, beautiful, aesthetic & strong. It reminds me old empire times. Deep sense is in this marble!
Looks even better in person!These cases are fantastic, great quality, and look even better in person! I'm a huge fan of the marble one especially and I've had lots of comments already from colleagues and friends.
Positive and InspiringWhat attracted me to this cover was the cheerful pink and the paisley design. I always like positive and inspiring things and that's exactly how this cover is.
Goes hand in hand with my DW watch...This Madotta case is pretty fine… I have been using it especially with my favorite Daniel Wellington watch. They pretty much go hand in hand because they have that sailor theme going on…
It's a work of art...It's not just a case; it's a work of art. The print quality is fantastic and stands out amongst the barrage of boring phone cases like a flamingo in a group of old pigeons. Needless to say, it also fits the phone perfectly.
Beautifully MadeI got the black and white Aztec pattern case and I love it! The design is super cute. I love the feel of it because it's sleek and simple to me. Overall, the case is beautifully made.
Looks exactly like the image!This case is really cool, I really like the pattern, it looks exactly like the image I saw on Internet, also the iPhone fits nicely so I'm very happy :)

A man arrested in an April methamphetamine bust was found guilty of five drug charges in a jury trial held in Cheboygan County 53rd Circuit Court. Meanwhile, a Cheboygan woman arrested during the same bust received a prison sentence for her actions involving drug charges. Sidney Edwards III, 34, was acquitted on seven charges of maintaining drug labs but found guilty on charges that he manufactured methamphetamine. The jury deliberated less than three hours before concluding its decision in the two-day trial. The Straits Area Narcotics Enforcement team, also known as SANE, arrested Edwards April 4 after executing search warrants at a home in Benton Township. SANE agents arrested Edwards after seizing components and chemicals used to manufacture methamphetamine, hazardous waste from manufacturing meth, drug paraphernalia and cash. Sarah Burnett was also living at the home and was arrested in Mackinac County the next day on charges related to the manufacturing of methamphetamine. Burnett has been sentenced to 5 months to 20 years in prison. Edwards will be sentenced on Aug. 27. In the other case, Burnett, 30, will spend from five months to 20 years with the Michigan Department of Corrections as ordered by Judge Scott Pavlich. Burnett also was sentenced to 11 months in jail on two other charges in the case that will be served concurrently with her prison term. She will receive credit for 116 days already served in the Cheboygan County Jail. Burnett earlier had pleaded guilty to one count of operating and maintaining a meth lab and delivery of fentanyl — each 20-year felonies — in addition to a 4-year felony charge of possession of heroin and maintaining a drug house, a 2-year misdemeanor. In exchange for Burnett's guilty plea, 12 other charges including a second-offense controlled substance possession charge and habitual offender status were dropped. Burnett was arrested in Mackinac County April 5 after agents of the Straits Area Narcotics Enforcement team, also known as SANE, executed search warrants at a city residence on Mackinaw Avenue and at a home in Benton Township and arrested Kristopher Ayotte and Edwards. Burnett admitted in court that she went to the Cheboygan Wal-Mart and purchased Sudafed for Ayotte and Edwards, who used it to manufacture methamphetamine. Ayotte pleaded guilty and is serving a sentence of 78 months to 40 years in prison.

Our team plays in honor of the late major leaguer- Cory Lidle. We are based out of the East San Gabriel Valley and compete at the Major 9U level. We are currently looking for the 'right' (2) players to have an immediate impact on our ball club. The positions that your son plays isn't as important as the caliber of player he is or his quality as a young man. We exemplify the tenacious spirit and competitiveness that helped Cory Lidle establish himself as a major league pitcher, and we have an utmost respect for the way the game should be played.
Our manager has D1 and professional baseball experience, and will get the absolute maximum development out of your son. We have a 'team first' mentality that rewards players for getting the runner to 3rd base with less than 2 outs... that knows the importance of executing a bunt... and is willing to sacrifice his individual accomplishments for team success. If you think your son could develop in such an environmnet and have an interest in us, please contact Coach Sarver to schedule a confidential, private workout.

Running Time: 68
Director: Rob Spallone
Cast: Trevor (I), Blake Palmer, Adam Wood, Jules (I), Ginger Boyd, Jack Hammer, Brianna (I), Tiana Rose
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Specialty
There?s no way the female talent here is as old as the box cover claims.
There's one scene in this eminently average tape that blows its doors off. Unlike many of the crones who haunt the "older women" genre, Tiana Rose is well-groomed, sexy, in good shape and absolutely beautiful. Think an older Halle Berry with big tits. Really impressive. Jack Hammer appears to appreciate her gifts, too, and turns in a first-rate fuck. Too bad the rest of the vid doesn't measure up.

The property tax levy for the Kirksville R-III School District will go down two cents with school officials saying district growth is slow but promising for next year.
The school board approved the property tax levy of $4.1228 per $100 of assessed valuation with $1.6519 for both the General Fund and the Teachers Fund and $0.819 for the Debt Service Fund. Overall, the levy is two cents lower than last year.
"We didn't have much growth but the area is increasing in its new construction and though we can't use that this year [for the tax levy] it is good for next year," Assistant Superintendent Jane Schaper told the board during a public hearing on the levy Wednesday.
No residents were present at the hearing.
The local property tax levy provides a significant portion of the district's budget, accounting for about a quarter of its annual revenue.
While the levy has decreased, new construction looks to boost next year's tax levy revenue, with about $5 million in new real property and personal property for 2012.
Overall, the district is expecting to increase from about $201.2 million assessed valuation for 2011 to $206.3 million for 2012.
"For several years there, people weren't buying new vehicles or new property," Schaper said. "It's good to see the economy growing again."
She told the board the area is experiencing an about 5 percent growth in its real and personal property value.
The proposed levy will be signed and delivered to the county clerk and then forwarded to the state auditor's office.

I know it's early and we should not be reactive or negative, but I need to
say this.
Sap needs to be the 6th man - or trade
Tinsley further down the bench - mins on the bench for PG & SG must go to Burks & Foye
Big AL - trade for assests - whatever the best deal is - Favors & Kanter must get mins to develop
Bell - Just cut
Watson - coaching staff
I would even start , Mo , Hayward, Marvin, Favors & Kanter - bench Burks, Foye, Evans/Caroll, Sap & Al
This current team as it is - is not a championship challenging team - We need to make changes to improve for the future and also to keep our good young players when there rookies contracts finishes.
My thoughts anyway - I just want the Jazz to improve and develop - With some of older players there it just will not happen.

Immature players equal loss on the road. they are not comfortable away from the security of their home, like little kids. Grow up men, the sooner the better. I have seen spurts of excellence, only to fall back to mediocrity. How about 5 hour energy.

As soon as the second team came in, it was all downhill from there. The teams the Jazz have played on this road trip played up in your face defense and our guys didn't know what to do. I am not sure I am a huge fan of this run-and-gun style offense. Yes, a guy will get hot, like Mo did a few times, but it hasn't worked well so far. I love the Jazz and have a lot of hope for them, but they need to figure something out soon!

Sen. Tim Johnson Declares, 'I Am Back'
Sen. Tim Johnson, the South Dakota Democrat who has been out of the public eye for eight months after a severe brain hemorrhage, appeared before a cheering crowd at the Sioux Falls Convention Center, declaring: I am back
He is expected to return to the Senate on a motorized scooter after Labor Day. He hasn't said whether he will run for re-election next year, but his address sounded like he will.
I believe I have been given a second chance at life, Johnson said, and as I stand here tonight, let me say this: I will take that second chance and work harder than ever to be the best I can be for each and every South Dakotan. Johnson spoke slowly and acknowledged his speech was not 100%, but his humor was intact. I will promise you that when my speech is back to normal, I will not act like a typical politician and overuse the gift," he said.
