We realized on our way out of town our brake lights weren't working. The store manager grabbed out key, changed the lights and sent us down the road in less than 10 minutes. Seriously? Go by this place. They are off the chain.
Yes, they will do the same thing to everybody that they think they can get away with. They are snake oil salesmen.

Let's face it, buying a car is usually the same type of experience as going to the dentist -- not fun. Our overall experience at Champion was a good one though. We shopped around a lot and got the best price, which Champion beat and gave us free oil changes to boot. Our salesperson was great …

All it takes is a little preparation to get your car winter-ready and to keep from getting into an icy situation.
It's time to bring long sleeves and long pants out of storage, prep your home and car, and contact the cool weather home/yard contractors.
I did a fair amount of research before deciding to take my BMW to Active Motorwerks. I have been in the Automobile business for twenty five years, and I know all most all of the tricks, and the ins and outs. My experience started with a pleasant telephone call, resulting in an appointment. Already impressed with the efficiency of the outfit, I took my car down there for what I hoped to be a routine procedure. Mario and his crew did everything they agreed to do , and a whole lot more. The trouble with the 540i was much greater than expected, but with the aid of the computer readout, Mario took me through all of the scenarios, explaining my options at every juncture. Although, I didn't want to spend the money, the empirical evidence on the computer screen was backed up with straight talk and common sense. I thoroughly recommend Active Autowerks to anyone with a BMW. I drove down from Salado, TX, and it was well worth it. It is refreshing to work with straight talking honest people who have the technical know how and demonstrate evidence to support their diagnoses. By the way, their labour rate , at $100.00/hr, is less than most domestics, who range from $112.50 to $120.00 . I'm not saying they should raise it, but it does underscore the value of a facility which specialises in jobs other people don't have the expertise to touch. Great job, guys. I will not bring my cars anywhere else.
I broke my rack and pinion steering somehow. Luckily I didn't get into a wreck. Anyway, the tow driver recommended Galaxy and I figured that it was close so it was worth having them take a look. The manager/proprietor put my car on the lift and showed me that the entire assembly was broken. This is not a small problem. He quoted me just under 800 dollars, which I barely had. Agreed to have the repair done. Proprietor was nice enough to give me a ride back to my apartment. Took the bus for a few days and had to take a few cabs :( Called the shop and proprietor said I also need an alignment for extra dough (maybe even something else). I was making the call from the bus on my way to work and this was pretty disturbing news. I just levelled with him and said, "I don't have that much. I have only as much as we agreed on... barely." Proprietor said that will be OK. I think he probably did the alignment and just didn't charge me. I think they did a great job and the price was fair (maybe even low). I will take my car there again for my next maintenance or repair.
They like to save you money through smart preventive care. Respectful. Honest. Edin and Amela are so passionate about automotive work, they'll educate you on paper (draw a diagram, write a list of the parts in question on a legal pad) and then point out the actual parts in your car, show you an old part and a new one, explain how the pieces work or why the fluid needs to be replaced and in what time frame. They even helped me get compensation from a different auto repair place that had used an incorrect bolt on one of my struts. They stand behind their work with old-fashioned ethics & integrity. You'll feel like you have dear friends or family members working on your car, who really care. They work on transmissions and did my 100K mile tuneup. They also do jobs as small as an oil change, but it's the kind of oil change where they check your alignment & tire pressure & fluid levels and inform you if anything needs attention. They're kind & humane. They'll offer help with logistics, like taking you to work or driving your second vehicle to wherever you need it.
When my Audi A6 started slamming hard between 1st and 2nd I was pretty nervous about what was happening to my car. I have had it for a few years now without any issues at all, and although it has quite a bit of miles the car always drove great. Anyways, I did some research online and saw that Reliable has a north shop but just opened this shop which is closer to where I live. I liked that they had free towing because I stopped driving it after the harsh shifts. I didn't want to cause anymore damage then what was already done. So the towing was free and the inspection was free, everything was starting out on the right foot. David gave me a call with what they found, and the parts that he told me were damaged were consistent to the research I had done online myself. His prices were reasonable and payment plans worked well for me. As a young professional who just graduated, this repair really didn't have the best timing. But anyways, just everything from start to finish went smooth and pain free. David is great, he made this experience not so bad after all.
Both my daughters have taken lessons from D'Ette and Co. They have been taught by Ms. D'Ette, Ms. Karen, and Ms. Jade, all of whom know their material and work very well with children. The control they maintain over their classes is something to behold; even the three-year-olds pay perfect attention. (They are learning manners as well as ballet.) The music, dances, and costumes are always age appropriate and fun for the children. There is a formal recital every other year, with informal recitals in the other years, and there is a production of The Nutcracker each year for dancers in first grade and beyond. D'Ette and her staff always go above and beyond the call of duty to make sure the children have the best possible experience in classes and at performances. I am truly amazed at the work they do. Whether you are considering dance lessons for a younger child, an older child, or even yourself, I would suggest you visit D'Ette and Co. You will not find a better environment for your children than the one Ms. D'Ette and her staff have created.
I took my 1998 Dodge Dakota in to Japanese Auto Tech / Alltech Automotive yesterday for a check engine light. I had already been to another shop that I will not mention and they were going to try to rip me off. I dealt with David and Claudia at Japanese Auto Tech and they were very professional and very nice. They gave me a ride back to my house so I could be comfortable waiting for my car to be done. I had taken it in that morning and by lunch they had a diganosis for me. The repairs I needed on my truck were half the price of the other shop and they had done a free 31 point inspection and gave me a list of things that I would need to watch out for but that everything on the list could wait. I have never had a more pleasant experience at an automotive repair shop as I did at Japanese Auto Tech. I will never go any where else for anything on my vehicle. If there is something that cant be done there they are willing to take it wherever it needs to go to get your vehicle repaired properly.
I had gotten several estimates to tix the hood and light of my car after I had a little accident. Every body shop I went to insisted minimum $1500 estimate. Obviously they all wanted to replace and paint the hood and replace the light. I was looking for a more functional repair. I went to the guys at Grand Central Auto. Will and his team advised me that they could pound out the wrinkle, install a new hood latch since the old one was ruined and straighten out the light. I found the latch on line and brought it to them. Gotthe car back the same day for around $200. They even managed to save the light and repoint it even with the other since it was pointing straight up since the accident. Granted my repairs were small. Im not saying you can get any repair for under $200, but these guys really do listen to you and try to find solutions. I trust them and will be back for any auto related needs. They do mechanical repairs as well as body shop stuff.
I just read the review before mine and it astounds me when people think they are entitled. ALL human life is valuable! Even pregnant women have to suffer inconveniences in life. I was also pregnant twice and didn't ask or expect special treatment. The guy was hurt and you were annoyed because your boo bear had to get a ride. That's life my dear. As for the guys at Kwik Lube, I've taken my car there for 7years and it's always run smoothly. They never try to gouge me with additional services. If some maintenance is legitimately due, they give me a discount. Once I had a light come on my panel. They ran a free diagnostic and found out it was something simple (a cap was loose). They didn't charge me. The last time I was in, I left a bag with expensive cell phone equipment in it. They called and let me know they had it. I was so grateful for their honesty. I have also never had to wait more than half an hour since I've been going there.
I had a flat on Lamar and tried to drive on in and bent my rim pretty bad. I ended up in the parking lot next door to this tire shop and one of the workers there came outside to help. Jacked my car up in the neighboring parking lot, removed my tire and tried to put another one on but found out the rim was no good after driving on it. So they luckily had some stock rims and gave me a rim and tire for $80! Hubcap annie wanted $92 for my rim alone with no tire. YIKES! Not to mention my car is pulling to the right really bad after I drove it. I called them back and asked maybe if it was the tire, and I brought it back and they said it needed alignment cause of the curb I hit when I had a flat. So I will be bringing it back next week for alignment. Since I bought my tire there, they are giving me a discount on the alignment! Ask for David or Richard. They both helped me and were more than informative, they made me feel at home.
Kevin Casey and his shop have been working on our family cars since 1990. He has consistently gone out of his way to provide conscientious and thorough work. He communicates fully our options and possible courses of action before proceeding. He is ALWAYS thinking of how to take better care of his customers. We have been saved many $1000's of dollars over the years by his shopping around for equivalent but less expensive parts (which he always clears with us). The way Kevin's team work on our vehicles is the way I would do it if I could run my own personal family shop. We had a car that was being serviced for free from the dealer. WHAT A BOTHER! I was constantly being disappointed by poor communication, long waits, just bad service experience. Once that arrangement expired, we were back home to Kevin. I have recommended Hondacure to many friends (with many makes of cars) and will continue to do so.
There are more than 700,000 auto service technicians and mechanics in the U.S. Finding the right one to repair a dent in your car door or fix an engine that won't start can be overwhelming, especially when it's an emergency. Review a few important facts about auto repair professionals and what you can do to get the best possible mechanic working on your vehicle's issues for a fair price.
Looking For Reliability
Unlike home repair services that evaluate a property, meet with homeowners and have time to prepare before their physical work begins, auto repair businesses are often asked to make fixes on the spot. If you come into a garage with a tire issue, the expectation is the mechanic will know how to correct that problem quickly.
That is why reliability is so vital when searching for a trusted auto repair shop. It may take going to several different mechanics before you find one you are truly comfortable with. Pose questions to this professional to find out what approach they will take to repair your car or what alternatives are available. Shopping around also gives you the best opportunity to find the cheapest rate or the fastest service, as some garages may be backed up with other vehicles that need repair first.
A recommended way to locate a trustworthy auto repair professional is to seek out customer reviews. Online sites offer honest opinions from real customers who have used a business. Read through this feedback to learn how a business operates and what you can expect if you were to take your vehicle there. Look for reviews about how quick maintenance was completed and if prices were fair. By learning what other people have said about a garage, you can gain a better idea if it's the right place to go when you have a car problem in need of fixing.
It can be difficult to know which automotive problems are serious enough to require expert assistance. A ripped seat cushion or broken radio don't involve safety and will not warrant enough of a problem that going into a garage is required. However, setbacks with brakes, lights and other parts that are vital to the safety of your car's driver and passengers, as well as others on the road, necessitate quick fixes. Many modern automobiles will notify drivers of an issue, in the form of a signal on the dashboard or a noise within the vehicle.
In the event of an accident, even if your vehicle does not appear to have any damage on the outside, it is generally recommended that you see a trusted auto repair professional. Internal damage may have occurred, or an important part may have been knocked out of place. Fixing these issues before driving much further can prevent further vehicle breakdowns in the future. In the case of a serious accident, a body shop can assess the problems and determine the best course of action for repairs, as well as evaluate how much they will cost.
Beyond that, regular checkups are recommended. Tires must be rotated, fluids needs to be replaced and the engine must be evaluated. After driving 25,000 miles, most auto dealers suggest having the vehicle checked out to ensure everything is running smoothly. Taking the car into the auto repair professional you trust will protect you from further problems down the road.
Not every type of auto repair work needs to be done by a certified mechanic. You can fix some of a vehicle's issues just by paying attention to how the automobile is running and having a basic understanding of auto repair. Look over the ways weather may impact your car and what preventative measures you can take to avoid having to take it into the shop. At the same time, be aware of mechanic scams that can impact your experience.
Preventing Trips To The Professional
Some fixes to your car can be done without paying a specialist. Issues like replacing oil and air filters are relatively simple, with instructions provided in the owner's manual on how to make these changes. The same goes for replacing broken windshield wipers or burnt-out headlights. Such issues should be repaired quickly to guarantee safety, but don't require a visit to a garage. By handling these types of tasks on your own, you'll gain a better understanding for how your car operates and save time and money.
Along with understanding how to fix manageable vehicle issues that may arise, taking preventative measures to avoid future problems is a valuable time saver. Many problem-solving best practices are related to the seasons. Your vehicle will be in different conditions in the winter than in the summer, meaning it requires a different type of preparation.
In the spring and summer, you want to be sure your air conditioner and cooling systems work correctly. Given the high temperatures the vehicle will be exposed to, overheating is a common problem. Look over the system by ensuring there is enough coolant available. If it needs to be refilled, it is best to open the hood and add more to the car before it gets too warm out. Also, clean out fan ducts and other ventilation sources necessary for summertime driving.
For winter driving, features such as the defroster, heater and exhaust system are paramount. Look in your owner's manual for specific directions on how features should be checked and repaired. Many newer cars have a cabin air filter that can be replaced when needed, allowing warm air to continue to flow in. Also, check your tires before winter driving, as they need to be at the proper pressure to perform well on snow and ice.
Avoiding Scams
There is a common worry among many people that auto repair professionals take advantage of the general public. Because so many people are unaware of how to fix the problems in their vehicle, they are nervous of being overcharged by mechanics or worried that the improper work is being done.
While the great majority of professionals in the industry are honest, hard-working people, a few bad apples can ruin everything. You should be extra careful when first visiting a mechanic to guarantee that the price you're charged and maintenance the vehicle receives are fair.
Among the common scams pulled are needless repairs, where a garage charges you for work that isn't necessary. Another popular one is attracting customers through a cheap oil change or tire pressure check. Then, when you are in the shop and your car is being repaired, they give you a long list of other corrections they'd like to make, therefore boosting the total cost of your bill.
The best way to combat these types of problems is getting a written estimate before work is done. That way, you can see how much repairs are expected to cost. If the final bill is higher than the estimate projected, ask to specifically see the work. Make sure information is put in writing as well. If a problem remains, you can have proof that work was not done to your satisfaction.
By working closely with an auto repair professional and doing some of the tune-up work on your own, you will be less likely to fall for these scams. At the same time, you'll be able to drive out with a clean and healthy vehicle, thanks to the repairs made by a trained professional.

LRH creates $19 million in economic impact
Lakes Regional Healthcare (LRH) generated 452 jobs that add more than $19 million to Dickinson County's economy, according to the latest study by the Iowa Hospital Association. "Given our mission of improving the health and well-being of the Iowa Great Lakes, we often think about that only in terms of the care we provide and not economic impact," LRH President and CEO Jason Harrington said. "However, being a large employer, we also impact the economic well-being of the area and in many communities, health care makes up the largest sector of employment." (Dickinson County News)
Broadlawns Medical Center opens $22 million addition
Many patients at Polk County's public hospital will start seeing doctors, dentists and counselors in a new building next week, partly thanks to Obamacare. Leaders of Broadlawns Medical Center celebrated the new, four-story addition Thursday. It will house an expanded dental clinic, outpatient mental-health services, addiction treatment, a pain-treatment clinic and a family-practice clinic whose goals will include training young doctors. Part of the reason for the hospital's success has been that many Iowans who used to lack health insurance now have coverage due to the Affordable Care Act. (Des Moines Register)
More cancer projected in Iowa this year
Researchers project 17,400 new cancer diagnoses in Iowa this year — up from an estimated 16,600 last year, according to a new State Health Registry of Iowa report released Wednesday. The number of Iowans expected to die from cancer this year, however, is projected to dip from the 2016 projection of 6,400 to 6,200 this year, according to the registry, located at the University of Iowa in the College of Public Health's Department of Epidemiology. Cancer and heart disease persist in killing the most Iowans annually. The 6,200 deaths expected in 2017 is 18 times the number of auto fatalities, according to the report. (Cedar Rapids Gazette)

House sets risky health care vote after trump demands it
In a gamble with monumental political stakes, Republicans set course for a climactic House vote on their health care overhaul after President Donald Trump claimed he was finished negotiating with GOP holdouts and determined to pursue the rest of his agenda, win or lose. House Speaker Paul Ryan set the showdown for Friday, following a nighttime Capitol meeting at which top White House officials told GOP lawmakers that Trump had decided the time for talk was over. In an embarrassing and stinging setback hours earlier, leaders abruptly postponed the vote because a rebellion by conservatives and moderates would have doomed the measure. (Associated Press)
Late move to dump 'essential' benefits could stand chronically ill
A last-minute attempt by conservative Republicans to dump standards for health benefits in plans sold to individuals would probably lower the average consumer's upfront insurance costs, such as premiums and deductibles, said experts on both sides of the debate to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. But, they add, it will likely also induce insurers to offer much skimpier plans, potentially excluding the gravely ill, and putting consumers at greater financial risk if they need care. What might be desirable for business would leave patients vulnerable. (Kaiser Health News)
CBO says revised GOP health care bill still leaves 24 million uninsured
In the second round of bad news for the revised GOP health care bill, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) reported Thursday that the faltering legislation would still leave 14 million people without health insurance next year and 24 million without coverage in 2026 – the same as the original bill. While the legislation wouldn't reduce the federal deficit as much as the original bill – $150 billion over the next ten years compared with $337 billion – the identical coverage estimates are yet another blow to GOP leaders whose hopes for the bill's House passage fizzled Thursday amid stubborn opposition from House conservatives led by the Freedom Caucus. (Miami Herald)
Cost of KanCare expansion debated ahead of key vote
A dispute about the cost and potential benefits of expanding Medicaid eligibility is heating up ahead of a Kansas Senate committee vote on a bill. In testimony Monday to the Senate Public Health and Welfare Committee, supporters of expanding eligibility for KanCare, the state's privatized Medicaid program, said expansion would more than pay for itself. An estimated 300,000 Kansans would qualify for coverage under expansion, though only about half that number would enroll in the first year, according to estimates. (KCUR)
Recent events hearten advocates of Georgia's rural hospitals
This week, the fortunes of rural hospitals in Georgia took a turn for the better. Voters in Monroe and Jefferson counties approved tax increases to help preserve their rural hospitals, which are in financial danger. And a proposed tax credit upgrade for donors to rural hospitals, an idea that had appeared dead in this year's Georgia General Assembly session, is alive again less than two weeks before the legislators are expected to adjourn. Rural health care in Georgia has been financially endangered for several years. Five rural hospitals have closed in the state since the beginning of 2013, and many others are cash-strapped and looking for help. (Georgia Health News)

'Repeal and replace' easier said than done
Republicans have kept the Affordable Care Act in their crosshairs ever since then-President Obama and the Democratic majority in Congress pushed it through, over GOP objections, seven years ago. Donald Trump and most every Republican railed against Obamacare during last year's campaign, vowing to "repeal and replace" it. And so, after Republicans won the White House and majorities in both chambers of Congress, they set about to make good on that campaign pledge. No one should be surprised by that. What might be surprising, at least to those politicians now in power, is that their "repeal-and-replace" promise is easier said than done. (Dubuque Telegraph Herald)
Dubuque ACA supporters rally in final hours before GOP health care vote
In the final hours before a crucial House vote on healthcare, white bags littered Dubuque's Washington Park, Wednesday evening. All of them filled with a candle. Dozens of Affordable Care Act (ACA) supporters placed the 450 luminaries there, each represented 100 people expected to lose coverage in Iowa's First District if the ACA is dropped. "Obviously, that's too many," said Helen Varner, an organizer of the rally. But that reality now seems less likely to this group as more and more Republicans have jumped ship, coming out against the Affordable Healthcare Act. (KCRG)
King lone 'yes' vote on health care bill among Iowa's House members
With a key vote looming Thursday, Iowa's entire congressional delegation has staked out positions on the Republican health care proposal aimed at repealing and replacing Obamacare. Three Iowa members, U.S. Representatives David Young, Rod Blum and Dave Loebsack — two Republicans and a Democrat — have announced they oppose the measure and will vote "no" on Thursday. The delegation's other Republican, U.S. Representative Steve King, says he will support the bill. The ardent conservative from the state's most conservative district was "undecided" and "leaning no" on the bill as recently as Wednesday morning. (Des Moines Register)
Another Iowa hospital closes psychiatric unit
Oskaloosa's hospital has shuttered its inpatient psychiatric unit, compounding a chronic shortage of options for southeast Iowans suffering mental-health crises. The Mahaska Health Partnership hospital discharged its last psychiatric inpatient Monday, CEO Jay Christensen said Wednesday. The Oskaloosa hospital is the latest in a string of Iowa hospitals that have closed or trimmed their psychiatric units over the past several years, citing financial losses. Patient advocates say southeast Iowa is particularly short of such facilities, especially since the state closed its Mount Pleasant mental hospital in 2015. (Des Moines Register)

Little agreement among GOP on health care bill next steps
House Republicans had hoped to vote on a bill to partially repeal and replace the landmark 2010 health care law on Thursday, seven years to the day after President Barack Obama signed it. Instead, they find themselves without the votes to do so and little agreement on their next move. The House GOP Conference's regular Thursday weekly planning meeting, where lawmakers might have decided on next steps, was canceled Thursday morning. Progress on the bill may not be made until midday Thursday or later. (Roll Call)
High drama for Obamacare vote
President Trump and GOP leaders are pulling out all the stops to win over House conservatives to their ObamaCare replacement bill ahead of a crucial up-or-down vote scheduled for today. Recent developments suggested a deal that could win over House Freedom Caucus members was possible. Trump promised a group of 18 GOP lawmakers that he would support an amendment in the Senate that would repeal ObamaCare's essential health benefits. That pledge, which also included a commitment from Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), lawmakers said, was enough to bring on board a key conservative, Representative Steve King (R-Iowa). (The Hill)
Obamacare repeal threatens a quiet revolution in how US cities care for poor
Over the last four years, Denver, Colorado has quietly transformed how it cares for its poorest residents. Republican legislation to roll back Obamacare threatens to not only strip Medicaid coverage from millions of poor Americans, but also to take away the funding that has allowed communities like Denver to build better systems to care for them. That is fueling rising alarm in cities such as Los Angeles, Cincinnati and Boston, where safety net hospitals have also used Obamacare's insurance expansion to take on underlying challenges that make lower-income Americans sick, including unsafe housing, poor diet and untreated mental illness. (Los Angeles Times)
GOP lawmakers slammed Obamacare for Medicare cuts. Trumpcare doesn't undo them
In letter after letter, Republican lawmakers have reminded their constituents: Obamacare cut Medicare. Implied, and sometimes stated outright, was that the GOP's own plan should instead bolster the program. "Any reforms must protect Medicare," Congressman Ted Poe, a Texas Republican, wrote in a letter last month to one of his constituents about the Affordable Care Act's failures and his party's own plans. But the bill now working its way through Congress does not reverse those cuts. Instead, Republicans for now appear committed to keeping this reviled part of the law. (Stat)
Virginians with disabilities and mental illness raise concerns over GOP health care bill
Governor Terry McAuliffe and advocates for Virginians with disabilities and mental illness have raised concerns about how the Republicans' proposed health care bill would impact the state. The bill's latest iteration could reduce Virginia's Medicaid funding by $708 million over the next decade, Joe Flores, deputy secretary of Health and Human Resources, said late Wednesday afternoon. More than 11,200 people are on a waiting list for disability services funded through Medicaid as of this week, officials with the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services said. People diagnosed with serious mental illness stand to lose access to doctors if the bill is approved. (Richmond Times-Dispatch)

Law enforcement are learning some alternatives for handling people experiencing substance abuse or mental health issues. Right now these people will go to jail or to the hospital, but that may not be the right place for them to go. "Whenever you train officers to be able to identify mental crises and de-escalate them without force everybody wins," said Captain Mark Bullock with the University of Iowa Police Department. Johnson County's Crisis Intervention Training is more about deescalating situations before they get out of hand. Officers said having better communication skills means they won't have to use force, which means fewer situations ending with a trip to the emergency room. (KCRG)
SMCH contributes more than $19.79 million to Calhoun County economy
A recent study by the Iowa Hospital Association has revealed that the 404 jobs at Stewart Memorial Community Hospital (SMCH) in Lake City generate more than $19.78 million for the Calhoun County economy. The report also indicated that employees spend more than $2.4 million in retail sales and contribute more than $145,000 in state sales tax revenue. In total, Iowa's health care sector contributes $16.6 billion into the state economy and provide just short of 325,000 jobs, or about one-fifth of the state's non-farm employment. (KCIM)
Representative Blum opposes GOP health care plan
Iowa Republican Representative Rod Blum said Tuesday he will not support the House GOP's health care plan in its current form. The 1st District congressman tweeted that the American Health Care Act "doesn't do enough to lower premiums for hardworking Americans." The repeal and replacement of much of Obamacare is supposed to get a vote on the House floor on Thursday. Dozens of Republican House members oppose the bill or have expressed major concerns.

GOP health care bill would kill 1.8 million jobs in 2022, says new analysis
The US economy would produce 1.8 million fewer jobs in 2022 if the Republican legislation to repeal the Affordable Care Act became law, according to a new analysis by the Center for American Progress. Two provisions in the legislation accounted for most of the projected job losses: repealing expanded eligibility for Medicaid coverage and cutting federal financial assistance for marketplace health coverage. Both measures were expected to eliminate 2.2 million jobs in 2022, according to the study by the left-leaning think tank. (McClatchy)
Gripes about Obamacare aside, health insurers are in a profit spiral
Over the last few years, big managed care companies like UnitedHealth Group have contributed to the furor over the fate of the Affordable Care Act by saying that important parts of it are fundamentally flawed. But overall it has been something of a blessing. The underlying businesses of the big managed care companies have actually done extremely well under Obamacare. They have run into some problems but are hardly in need of a rescue. The companies have notched profits — from expansion of Medicaid, for example, and from services aimed at cutting medical costs — while learning how to insulate themselves from parts of the law that have crimped their income.

House health care bill teetering on the brink of failing
The GOP health care bill appears poised for failure with at least 19 Republicans committed to voting "no," absent additional substantial changes, and several more likely to join them in opposition. CQ Roll Call has confirmed in interviews and review of public statements that at least 19 Republicans will not vote for the GOP health care bill Thursday. Another handful said they were either undecided or were leaning toward opposing the bill, with most of those members still looking for changes. If the number of "no" votes surpasses 21, that's enough to sink the bill. (Roll Call)
Trump warns House Republicans: Repeal health law or lose your seats
President Trump on Tuesday turned up the pressure on recalcitrant Republicans to support a sweeping bill to overhaul the health care system, threatening wavering lawmakers in his party with political payback if they failed to get behind a measure that has become an early test of his negotiating power. At a private meeting with House Republicans at the Capitol, the president also delivered a blunt warning that many of those present would lose their seats in next year's midterm congressional elections if the effort failed.

Tapping telehealth for complex cases
For more than a decade, some hospitals and health systems have turned to telehealth to reach patients in areas squeezed by physician shortages. More recently, providers answered patients' calls for convenience by offering on-demand video visits for routine health problems. Now the leading health systems are harnessing telehealth to treat patients with more complex conditions in ways that lower costs by preventing complications, reducing lengths of stay and, when used in home or post-acute settings, reducing readmissions.

Hospitals across Iowa facing nursing shortages
Hospitals across the state are scrambling to fill nursing positions, with hundreds of openings in the Des Moines area alone. "Just seeing what nurses do, it's miraculous," said Deb Moyer, chief nurse executive at Unity Point Health in Des Moines. What is not miraculous is just how few of them there are in the state. Unity Point in Des Moines currently has around 170 nursing positions open, St. Luke's Hospital in Cedar Rapids has 71, Broadlawns has 15 vacancies and Boone County Hospital has eight. Nurses say they need the profession to grow quickly the shortage will not be over any time soon. (WHO)
Limits on medical malpractice lawsuits passes Iowa Senate
Legislation aimed at limiting medical malpractice lawsuits won approval in the Senate Monday after a heated debate over the rights of patients hurt by negligent health care against the need to help Iowa attract more physicians. The bill includes provisions governing doctor-patient communications after adverse medical incidents; capping limits on non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering, at $250,000; requiring a "certificate of merit" to screen out frivolous litigation and establishing standards for expert witnesses. The bill's supporters include the Iowa Hospital Association, Iowa Health Care Association, Iowa Medical Society and other medical organizations. (Des Moines Register)
Des Moines Register to help Iowans follow health care debate
Health care is personal. Health care is also big business. With so much at stake it's no wonder Congress can find little common ground on health care policy. Actions at the state and federal levels in coming months could affect the quality and cost of health care available for years to come. And across the country, hospitals could struggle financially depending on what Congress ultimately decides. The Des Moines Register's health care reporter, Tony Leys, will spend much of his time in coming months reporting on how federal health law changes will affect Iowans. (Des Moines Register)

Already in peril, rural hospitals unsure on health care bill
Rural hospitals have long struggled, with patients who are older, suffer from chronic illnesses and face few insurance options, if they're insured at all. Most rural hospitals have a higher-than-normal percentage of Medicaid patients; expected cuts to the federal program for low-income residents will affect facilities everywhere, but experts and administrators are particularly worried about rural areas. And for many rural health care workers, the GOP's new plan isn't calming nerves. When rural hospitals are forced to close, the effects reverberate, a 2016 Kaiser Family Foundation study shows.

As ACA repeal vote nears, Kansas debates on expanding Medicaid
Kansas lawmakers know they are late to the Medicaid expansion party, but they appear determined to show up anyway. "I feel like now is as good a time as any," says Anthony Hensley, the leader of the Democratic minority in the state Senate. Congress' bill replacing the Affordable Care Act (ACA) would not immediately close the expansion window for states that have not acted, says Tom Bell, president of the Kansas Hospital Association. An estimated 300,000 Kansans would qualify for coverage under expansion, though only about half that number are expected to initially enroll. (KCUR)
GOP's Medicaid cuts could affect thousands in SC
South Carolina's must vulnerable citizens could lose access to health care if massive Medicaid cuts proposed by congressional Republicans become law. The American Health Care Act – President Donald Trump and the GOP House leadership's plan to replace and repeal President Barack Obama's signature health care law – would make big changes to Medicaid, the federal health care program for the poor. "This is all about the federal government wanting to save a bunch of money and shifting the risk to the states, and South Carolina is one of the states that can least afford it," said Sue Berkowitz, director of the S.C. Appleseed Legal Justice Center. (Columbia State)
Trump to Capitol in last-ditch lobbying for health care bill
President Donald Trump is rallying support for the Republican health care overhaul by taking his case directly to GOP lawmakers at the Capitol, two days before the House plans a climactic vote that poses an important early test for his presidency. Top House Republicans unveiled revisions to their bill in hopes of nailing down support. Trump's closed-door meeting with House Republicans was coming as party leaders released 43 pages worth of changes to a bill whose prospects remain dicey. Their proposals were largely aimed at addressing dissent that their measure would leave many older people with higher costs. (Associated Press/ABC News)
CMS delays expansion of bundled payment programs
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has delayed the expansion of a major bundled payment pilot, Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement, and the implementation of its bundled payment initiatives for cardiac care from July 1 to October 1, 2017, according to an interim final rule. It also delayed several other payment programs. The Trump administration's move to delay mandatory initiatives raises questions about the future of government initiatives to usher health care out of fee-for-service operations and into a new age of value-based payment. Hospitals likely will feel varying degrees of the impact of the implementation delay. (Modern Healthcare)

Health group: Up to 250,000 Iowans at risk under GOP bill
The Iowa Hospital Association (IHA) estimates a Republican-backed plan to replace the Affordable Care Act could leave up to 250,000 Iowans without health insurance, and others speculate the change could destabilize the entire Medicaid system that serves poor and disabled people. Kirk Norris, president and CEO of IHA, said the bill would cause people to lose preventive care coverage, increasing emergency room visits and leading to more costs for hospitals. (Associated Press/Iowa City Press-Citizen)
Privatized Medicaid a disaster
Before state Medicaid was privatized in the fall of 2015, most of the services Hannah Soyer of Iowa City received were managed through the Department of Human Services (DHS), as was the case of other 600,000 disabled or poor Iowans. But the majority of those who had been managed by DHS are now managed by one of the three private managed care organizations. Soyer and others with disabilities have experienced several problems since then. Quality health care for people with disabilities can be hard to find when making sure these services are funded is a headache. It is time that the state Legislature recognize what privatized Medicaid in Iowa has become: a disaster. (Daily Iowan)
Despite crowd's hostility, Ernst gratified by town hall in Cedar Rapids
US Senator Joni Ernst welcomed input from a highly partisan, overflow crowd Friday at a town-hall meeting. If nothing else, the Iowa Republican said, the gathering demonstrated that "Iowans understand how politics works" and how to engage elected officials. And the crowd let her know that it doesn't think much of the proposed replacement to the Affordable Care Act, the president's "skinny budget" or much of anything they see coming out of the Trump administration and Congress.

AHA moves lobbying effort to stop ACA repeal to Senate
Feeling unheard in the House, the American Hospital Association (AHA) is turning to the Senate to stop the American Health Care Act from becoming law. AHA met and shared its concerns with House leadership about provisions of the law it feels will result in millions of people losing coverage, which could ultimately harm the financial stability of many hospitals when their uncompensated care costs soar. "We cannot support the bill in its present form," Rick Pollack, AHA CEO, said at a news conference Friday. "It doesn't appear as if they are making any major changes at this point that would accommodate the concerns that we have," Pollack said. (Modern Healthcare)
Illinois experts say Republican health care plan could cost state $40 billion
Illinois stands to lose an estimated $40 billion in federal money over the next decade under the Republican health care proposal being considered in Congress. The figure comes as state House Democrats sought to put a price tag on the potential impact of the plan on health care programs for the poor. Americans would lose coverage by 2026 under the Republican plan, David Gross, senior vice president of government relations for the Illinois Health and Hospital Association, told lawmakers. "This is at a time when the state is not well positioned to absorb the costs," Gross said. (Chicago Tribune)
Rural Wisconsin takes hit in GOP health plan after backing Donald Trump
No congressional district in Wisconsin delivered a bigger victory margin for Donald Trump last fall (20 points) than the rural northern one represented by Republican Sean Duffy. But by one key measure, no district in Wisconsin would lose more health care aid under the GOP plan to replace Obamacare. Wisconsin is part of a national pattern in which the Obamacare enrollees who appear to be hit the hardest by the Republican plan fit the demographic and geographic profile of Trump's political base which disproportionately live in rural areas. (Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel)
On Medicaid money, GOP has win-or-lose proposition for states
States' policies differ about who or what to cover in Medicaid and those decisions have led to historical variances in how much federal money they receive. House Republicans' effort to shrink federal Medicaid spending would lock in the differences in a way that favors those already spending high amounts per enrollee. GOP leaders want to give states a set amount of money each year based on a formula known as per-capita caps. But caps would shift costs and financial risks to the states and could force them to cut benefits or eligibility to manage their budgets. (Kaiser Health News)
New Baltimore wellness center works to reduce stigma of mental illness
Patients who receive mental health counseling at the new Simon Life and Wellness Center in Baltimore lie on white leather sofas with faux suede and fur pillows. It's not the typical decor, but the staff at Simon Life and Wellness in the Charles North neighborhood wants clients, many of them low-income, to see it as a cool and welcoming place. Simon Life and Wellness offers an art therapy room, music therapy and yoga classes. Owner Christopher A. Simon hopes to diminish the stigma that's often attached to mental illness and draw more people from some of Baltimore's most troubled neighborhoods into much-needed treatment. (Baltimore Sun)

...as the saying goes, you can't make an omelette without breaking eggs, and boy oh boy, do we have broken eggs!! lots of upheaval while the cottage renovations and extension take place, and just to keep things interesting, the Council is sealing the car park! Thankfully there is a temporary car park created across the road.
One of the first positive things to come from the renovations is the relocation of the Potters wonderful wall mural from inside the Atrium to the external wall by the side entrance, the most often used entrance where it will be visible to everyone passing from the car park into the cottage or through to the Church next door. It looks terrific and was certainly the object of much admiration from some school kids and adults yesterday.
Created by the Pottery Group in 1984 and dedicated to Jeane Cameron it 'Depicts the joining together of the people of Craft Cottage in the love of their craft - the fellowship it creates - and the beautiful environment' - a lovely and so true sentiment!
The Quilts at Show and Tell were all so very lovely, firstly we had two charity quilts from Val made for 'Laurel House' an 'Angels' quilt in vibrant colours....
and a larger string pieced Q.A.Y.G.
Lorraine took over 9 months to get this one from idea to completion, she blames the colour selection!, made from scraps it was originally a 'Take Along' project for her quilting groups, Lorraine tells us that although the blocks were from scraps and therefore 'free' the borders and backing cost a bomb!
Helen also had two quilts to show us, both originated from the one idea in that she bought a lovely Layer Cake and proceeded with stitcheries in complimentary colours. However, once the stitcheries were completed the Layer Cake colours were far too heavy! which of course meant.............yeah, of course, more fabric had to be purchased...........now isn't that a sad story - not.
Helen's beautiful stitchery quilt, made just for herself, and inspired by a similar quilt made by Julie.
A closer view of some of the lovely stitcheries by Helen
The Layer Cake fabrics were much admired by Helen's Stepdaughter, so taking the 'Crossed Kayaks' pattern, Helen created this beautiful quilt for her.
It was day one of June teaching the 'Hidden Wells' quilt, all those doing the quilt bought along their fabric stacks for colour selection help from June - and of course all the other gals had a say as well, great fun was afoot in the front room colours discussed, patterns drafted, and a wee tad of homework to be done.
June also bought this wonderful African inspired quilt that she had made for her 16 yr old Grandson along to show us, all of his favourite earthy colours with animal prints.
June has appliqued tigers across the borders into the quilt body, a very effective and fave trick of hers.
Men at work.........well Men discussing work, 3 Builders/Tradies working out the best way to attack the next step.
and then there are the guys taking out the post and rails edging the car park in preparation for the next step.
You can see the stump from one of the many lovely big shade trees that have been removed in the foreground.
When I think of Buderim I think of lovely big shady Camphor Laurels and Poinciana trees along the streets, sadly these are being phased out, but that's a whole different story!

In language, a reflexive pronoun, sometimes simply called a reflexive, is a pronoun that is preceded or followed by the noun, adjective, adverb or pronoun to which it refers (its antecedent) within the same clause.
In English specifically, a reflexive pronoun is a pronoun that ends in self or selves, and is an object that refers to a previously named noun or pronoun. Reflexive pronouns take the same forms as intensive pronouns: myself, yourself, himself, ourselves, itself, themselves, yourselves
In generative grammar, a reflexive pronoun is an anaphor that must be bound by its antecedent (see binding). In a general sense, it is a noun phrase that obligatorily gets its meaning from another noun phrase in the sentence. Different languages have different binding domains for reflexive pronouns, according to their structure.
In Indo-European languages, the reflexive pronoun has its origins in Proto-Indo-European. In some languages, the distinction between the normal object and reflexive pronouns exists mainly in the third person: whether one says "I like me" or "I like myself", there is no question that the object is the same person as the subject; but, in "They like them(selves)", there can be uncertainty about the identity of the object unless a distinction exists between the reflexive and the nonreflexive. In some languages, this distinction includes genitive forms: see, for instance, the Danish examples below. In languages with a distinct reflexive pronoun form, it is often gender-neutral.
Light is electromagnetic radiation within a certain portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. The word usually refers to visible light, which is visible to the human eye and is responsible for the sense of sight. Visible light is usually defined as having wavelengths in the range of 400–700 nanometres (nm), or 4.00 × 10−7 to 7.00 × 10−7 m, between the infrared (with longer wavelengths) and the ultraviolet (with shorter wavelengths). This wavelength means a frequency range of roughly 430–750 terahertz (THz).
The main source of light on Earth is the Sun. Sunlight provides the energy that green plants use to create sugars mostly in the form of starches, which release energy into the living things that digest them. This process of photosynthesis provides virtually all the energy used by living things. Historically, another important source of light for humans has been fire, from ancient campfires to modern kerosene lamps. With the development of electric lights and power systems, electric lighting has effectively replaced firelight. Some species of animals generate their own light, a process called bioluminescence. For example, fireflies use light to locate mates, and vampire squids use it to hide themselves from prey.
Jiddu Krishnamurti (/ˈdʒɪduː ˌkrɪʃnəˈmɜːrti/; 11 May 1895 – 17 February 1986) was a speaker and writer on matters that concerned humankind. In his early life he was groomed to be the new World Teacher but later rejected this mantle and withdrew from the organisation behind it. His subject matter included psychological revolution, the nature of mind, meditation, inquiry, human relationships, and bringing about radical change in society. He constantly stressed the need for a revolution in the psyche of every human being and emphasised that such revolution cannot be brought about by any external entity, be it religious, political, or social.
Krishnamurti was born in British India and in early adolescence, he had a chance encounter with prominent occultist and theosophist Charles Webster Leadbeater in the grounds of the Theosophical Society headquarters at Adyar in Madras. He was subsequently raised under the tutelage of Annie Besant and Leadbeater, leaders of the Society at the time, who believed him to be a "vehicle" for an expected World Teacher. As a young man, he disavowed this idea and dissolved the Order of the Star in the East, an organisation that had been established to support it.

"A religious life implies being a light to yourself, which means no outside authority. We are talking about having no spiritual authority." Jiddu Krishnamurti Note: I don't own this video, just wanted to share too.

But I was never one to cry
Shattered, torn apart, forsaken
Felt more dead than alive
Embraced the pain, buried the hatchet
Learned to sleep with an opened eye
They can waste me, hate me, refuse to save me
But I'm not letting go
For I know
You have to be a light to yourself
Be a spark
In the dark
Shine and be a light to yourself
Watch me glow
I was madly in love with the devil
On those lonely winter nights
I would kiss the lips of an angel
No, I'm not letting go
For I know
You have to be a light to yourself
Be a spark
In the dark
Shine and be a light to yourself
Watch me glow
Watch me glow
No, I'm not letting go
For I know
You have to be a light to yourself
Be a spark
In the dark
Shine and be a light to yourself
Watch me glow
You have to be a light to yourself
Watch me glow
Shine and be a light to yourself
Watch me glow
Watch me glow

A lot of organizations use web services (WSDL) for system integration. Often those services are developed alongside the application that uses those services. Instead of waiting for those services to be developed, the application which consumes the web service can develop a mock implementation of the service to test against.Several strategies
There are several strategies for developing mock services from a WSDL. One of these strategies is using SoapUI. SoapUI is able to consume the WSDL and generate a mock service from it. After the mock service is created, the application in question can consume this mock service and start using it.The advantage of mocking this way, is that the application makes a full HTTP network round-trip when calling the respective service. All relevant components within the application (WSDL client, parsing the response message) are covered.
Instead of describing how to mock a web service using SoapUI, I created a small screencast demonstrating this. The screencast can be found here: Web service mocks with SoapUI
I think this screencast is more clear and easier to follow than written text. To be effective I keep my screencasts shorter than 5 minutes. Descriptive subtitles are also included. Please let me know if you like this format.

As we mentioned a few months ago, there's a growing cyber scam involving real estate agents' email accounts being hacked and their clients' email addresses stolen. Then, when email traffic indicates a closing is near, the hackers will contact the client(s) from an email address that is nearly identical to the actual agent's address and request the client wire funds to...

UK Dentistry Courses
Introduction to Dentistry
Dentistry courses in the UK generally last five years and are demanding at both an academic and technical level. Dentistry students will study the cause, prevention, management and treatment of oral and dental disease.
Dentistry is one of the most competitive courses in the UK to apply to and successful applicants will require strong academic grades, the commitment to complete a long degree and the practical and mental skills needed to concentrate over long periods of time. Dentistry graduates will complete their course with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) award.
SI-UK is here to help with your Dentistry application. Get started today and arrange your free consultation at an SI-UK office or via Skype and learn more about our Dentistry Application Service which can help you succeed.
The first year of study will concentrate on basic medical and clinical knowledge in the areas of anatomy, physiology, oral biology and biochemistry. These academic studies will continue throughout the degree, but practical work under supervision will begin to be carried out towards the end of the first year. State of the art simulation dummies are provided to practice practical work.
Careers in Dentistry
Dentistry graduates initially begin employment as trainees in the NHS or the private sector. Because of the highly specialised skill set Dentistry graduates hold, they can choose to specialise in a particular area early in their career, before making changes later in life.
Careers include dental nurses, dental hygienists, dental therapists, dental technicians and dental support, while becoming a Dental teacher is also hugely rewarding.
Dentistry Entry Requirements
- Typical International Baccalaureate requirements: 37 points.
- Typical A-levels requirements: AAA including Chemistry and Biology.
- Typical IELTS requirements: 7.0 overall, with no lower than 6.5 in any one component.
If you need to improve your IELTS score ahead of beginning a Dentistry degree, sign up for our flexible part-time IELTS classes in central London today.
Please note that entry requirements vary for each UK university.
UK Clinical Aptitude Test
The UK Clinical Aptitude Test (UKCAT) is part of the selection process of some UK medical and dental schools. It is an online test designed to test cognitive abilities, attitudes, critical thinking, and logical reasoning. There are four reasoning tests and a situational judgement test.
- Verbal reasoning. Assesses ability to think logically about written information and arrive at a reasoned conclusion: 21 minutes, with 11 passages to read and 44 questions.
- Quantitative reasoning. Assesses ability to solve numerical problems: 24 minutes, 9 tables, charts, graphs etc. as information and 36 questions.
- Abstract reasoning. Assesses ability to infer relationships from information by convergent and divergent thinking: 13 minutes and 55 questions.
- Decision analysis. Assesses ability to deal with various forms of information to infer relationships, make informed judgements, and decide on an appropriate response: 32 minutes, 1 scenario full of information and 28 questions (basic calculator provided)
- Situational judgement. Measures your responses in situations, and your grasp of medical ethics: 27 minutes and 67 questions on 20 scenarios.
The test is taken at your local test centre, with each subtest in a multiple choice format. Past papers are not available but there are specimen questions on the UKCAT website. The UKCAT can be taken by applicants at the following universities:
Please note that entry requirements vary for each UK university.
