Wonderful people to do business with. I ordered last minute. The order was scheduled for a week later, but I contacted them and they got it too me in time for Valentines. I ordered matching ring, pendant and ear rings. I ordered the ring too small. Not their fault. Sent it back for resizing and they turned it around in just a couple days. I couldn't be happier with the service.

I bought a ruby ring in December for our 40th anniversary. I wish I could remember who I chatted with during the buying process but I can't. Anyway, our anniversary was yesterday and my wife said "It (the ring) couldn't be more perfect." So I am just on here to thank whoever I chatted with and your company. It really was a good experience and we are both very happy!

Just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for your excellent service with my last order. I ordered a ring in size 6 which fits my wifes left hand, but she will wear this ring on her right hand which is a size 6 1/2. We returned the ring for resizing and it was returned to us in a week with a perfect fit.

Amazing ! The stone is a little larger than expected, and also a little darker - but when it catches the light it has so much depth and sparkle. So many compliments already and it was great value for money - looks much more expensive than it really was. It is hands down the most beautiful ring I've seen and exactly what we wanted for my engagement ring. Perfect.

I recently placed an order for a Celtic Trinity Ring. My order shipped quickly and I was very impressed with the quality of the ring. One thing I have noticed about pictures of jewelry in general is that pictures tend to make the items look better than they really are. Not the case here though. What Ive noticed about jewelsforme.com is that not only are the pictures great on the website, but the actual product even looks better! I will definitely be ordering again! Thank You!

Tamron SP 24-70mm F2.8 Di VC USD Canon
Further readings for the Tamron SP 24-70mm F2.8 Di VC USD Canon
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
We've tested 130 lenses on the recently-introduced full-frame 30-Mpix Canon EOS 5D Mk IV, covering focal lengths ranging from an ultra-wide angle 11mm to 600mm super-telephoto.
A well-priced, fast-aperture standard zoom for Canon full-frame DSLRs with image quality on par with the pricier competition.
Our technicians have tested no fewer than 130 lenses on Canon's 50.6Mp EOS 5DS R Digital SLR. With the results for both prime and zoom lenses covering a diverse range of focal lengths, we've got all the data you need for picking out the right lens. In Part 1 of our three-part review, we bring you the analyzed and verified scores for standard zoom lenses as well as 35mm, 50mm and 85mm primes on the Canon EOS 5DS R.
With a full-frame 18-Mpix CMOS sensor and twin Digic 5+ processers that's capable of continuous bursts of up 12 fps – the fastest of any professional DSLR currently - the Canon EOS-1 Dx is the firm's flagship press camera. We've assessed it with over 100 EF mount lenses, to see how well they perform. Read on to find out which models are the best optically and which, if any, you should avoid.
At less than half the price of the marginally wider, slightly faster Zeiss 24-70mm f4, this in-house Sony model looks like a tempting alternative, but can it meet the demands of the high-resolution sensor in the A7R? Read on to find out.
As a more modestly priced alternative to the EF 24-70mm f2.8L II USM and with a longer reach than the newer stabilized EF 24-70mm f4L IS USM, the similarly stabilized EF 24-105mm f4L IS USM remains a popular model for Canon users.
As a new addition to the Art-series, the Sigma 24-105mm f4 DG OS HAS looks promising, but can the firm replicate the image quality of their recent 35mm f1.4 and 18-35mm f1.8 models? Read on to find out.
Introduced in July this year, the EOS 70D at first sight seems like a regular update to the maker's mid-range EOS 60D model. It shares a number of features with the firm's existing SLR range including a 19-point cross-type phase detection AF system, a 3-inch (1.040M dot) articulated touchscreen and built-in WiFi connectivity with remote viewing and image transfer. The camera can also shoot at up to 7fps and has 1080/30p video recording with stereo sound using an optional external microphone.
After the runaway success of the full-frame 35mm f/1.4, Sigma is taking the initiative with this new ultra-high speed, pro-level standard zoom designed for APS-C format cameras. The specification is particularly promising, but does it mean the end of fixed focal lenses for APS-C? Read on to see how well this cutting-edge model performs in our labs.
After comparing the imaging chain of the full-frame Canon EOS 5D Mk III across a raft of lenses, we've now turned our attention to the APS-C format EOS 700D / REBEL T5i / Kiss X7i. The 18.1-Mpix 'Hybrid CMOS' sensor in this camera is similar to those of the same size and pixel count used in the firm's other models, including the semi-pro EOS 7D, so it may still be of interest even if you don't own a EOS 700D / REBEL T5i / Kiss X7i.
DPReview: Tamron SP 24-70mm F/2.8 Di VC USD review
To website
The Tamron SP 24-70mm F/2.8 Di VC USD is distinguished by being the first fast standard zoom for full frame cameras to include optical image stabilization. The fact that it does so in a design that includes a ring-type ultrasonic motor for fast, silent autofocus and a degree of weathersealing (Tamron uses the term 'drip-proof'), all at a significantly lower price than Canon's non-stabilized EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM that was announced around the same time, might lead you to think suspect must be some serious compromise involved in its design. But there isn't.Read the article

ERROR: DXO Mark for Tamron 24-70mm F/2.8 on 5D Mark III
How can the Tamron 24-70mm F/2.8 have a DXO Mark Score of 24 on the Canon 5D Mark II, but be significantly lower on the Canon 5D Mark III? It seems the data is incorrect. Please look into this.

Re: ERROR: DXO Mark for Tamron 24-70mm F/2.8 on 5D Mark III
Hi Dave,
Thanks for your interest in DxOMark and for your feedback. However, we maintain that scores are actually higher with the Canon EOS 5D Mark III.

2.8 transmission?
how is it possible that a f2.8 lense has a t-stop of 2.8? and why only on canon (for ex. 5d3) and on nikon (for ex. d800) it is 3.2?
thank you!

Tamron vs Nikon lens comparison
Cameralabs in review of nikon 24-85 vr mentioned that it compares well with Tamron. I hope your test of nikon 24-85 vr on D3X or D600 coming soon.

Re: Tamron vs Nikon lens comparison
After holiday sales, I got D600 with 24-85mm VR lens and very happy with my choice of full frame DSLR and quality of the lens. Since than I am checking daily your website with hope to get DXOmark scores on that lens on D600 or D3X. There are a lot of those lens used and tested already with conflicting reports from different testing websites on quality of that lens. My friend bought 5D Mark III with 24-70mm 2.8L lens and we went to photo trip together. When we compared and discussed photos from that trip we agreed that overall quality of the equilalent photos is very close. Being an engineer I am waiting for numerical confirmation. I am pretty sure that the scores will be high. I generally agree with your testing results and your test data are are helping me in my future lens selection.

I am expecting 24-85mm VR test on D600 to come out this week as you promised in last post. A lot of people would like to see new 18-35mm 3.5-4.5 G ED tested too. I trust DXO labs tests for my lens selection, because I need to make decisions in few days. Thank you.

Re: Tamron vs Nikon lens comparison
Still waiting for 24-85 3.5-4.5 VR and new 18-35mm f3.5-4.5 results. Cameralabs demonstrated that 24-85 3.5-4.5 VR has better resolution than Tamron 24-70 2.8 at infinity. My new 18-35 f3.5-4.5 way better than 24-85 3.5-4.5 VR even without VR. Contradictory to your conclusion that 5D mark III is almost a match to D800 in image quality, I think it's probably will be a numbers match to D600 with consumer zooms :D.

Just a bit confused
Emilie, says "The reason is that the Sony Carl Zeiss 24-70mm looses some sharpness in the field, where it is outperformed by the other ones."
Something is being lost in translation. In what field ??? How can a lens that is rated sharp loose sharpness when you take it outside into a field ??? Please clarify.

Re: Just a bit confused
I am sorry, I indeed lost myself in translation :)
I meant that the Sony Carl Zeiss 24-70mm tends to be less sharp in the center of the (visual) field; it's its great weakness comparing to the other lenses.
I hope it is clearer!

24-70 comparison
Just having difficulty figuring out how the Sony CZ 24-70 scores low compared to these 3? Sharpness is higher than all 3, transmission is in line with both Canon and Nikon, distortion is at the top level along with the Tamron, vignetting it beats all 3, and CA is the same as the Canon (right between the other two). This should put is slightly in front of the pack, but then read about the 'blue bar range' for different FL - ok so here it seems about on par or maybe a little better than the Tamron and Nikon, but not as good as the Canon.
So how does it score a 21 when it exceeds certainly at the very least the Nikon (where it equals or beats it in all metrics) and the Nikon gets a 24 overall score? I know these are tested on different cameras, but how does that effect the weightings?

Blue Ribbon smiles at Nuckols Farm
By Patty Kruszewski, Citizen Managing Editor 10/07/12
Henrico's Nuckols Farm Elementary School celebrated its new National Blue Ribbon School status Sept. 20 with a student body assembly, music, and visits from Henrico County Public Schools (HCPS) leaders as well as representatives from Senator Mark Warner's office and the U.S. Dept. of Education.
Showing off the Blue Ribbon certificate at a reception following the ceremony [above] were Dr. Patrick Russo, HCPS superintendent; Deborah Delisle, assistant secretary, U.S. Dept. of Education; and Mary Cox, NFES principal.
Among the fifth-graders participating in the ceremony were David Lim, Kayla Walters, and Emma Connelly, who performed introductions, made remarks and led the Pledge of Allegiance. The fifth grade chorus also performed the song "Agents of Change" [inset].
The Blue Ribbon Schools Program honors public and private K-12 schools that are either academically superior or that demonstrate dramatic gains in student achievement. The U.S. Department of Education will honor all of the nation's 2012 National Blue Ribbon Schools during a conference and awards ceremony Nov. 12-13 in Washington, DC.

Harvick Wins Richmond On Dramatic Restartby Press Release April 28, 2013 0 comments
RICHMOND, Va. — Kevin Harvick sped away on fresh tires to win Saturday night's Toyota Owners 400 in a green-white-checkered finish at Richmond International Raceway, leaving a group of drivers with widely divergent emotions in his wake.
Harvick beat Clint Bowyer to the finish line by .343 seconds to win his first NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race of the season, his third at Richmond and the 20th of his career.
Joey Logano ran third, Juan Pablo Montoya came home fourth after leading until the final caution and Jeff Burton finished fifth after staying out on old tires for the final two-lap run that took the event six laps beyond its posted distance.
Harvick came to pit road for tires on Lap 396, after Brian Vickers slapped the wall in Turn 3 to cause the 11th caution of the race. Harvick's No. 29 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet made short work of the three drivers who had stayed out after the race restarted on Lap 405.
Though Montoya lost the chance to break a 94-race drought since his Cup victory at Watkins Glen in August 2010, Montoya was elated just to get a top-five finish after struggling mightily for more than a year.
Not so elated were Kurt Busch and Tony Stewart, who repeatedly swapped shots with their Chevrolets on the cool-down lap. Stewart was fifth on the final restart but dropped to 18th at the finish after Busch rubbed him out of the racing groove during a two-lap free-for-all that saw prolific contact throughout the field.
Harvick, however, was all smiles when he climbed out of his car in Victory Lane.
"My car launched, and I was able to drive it in the first corner and hope for the best down there," said Harvick, who surged into the lead through Turns 3 and 4 after establishing his position in the first corner on the final restart. "I figured four, eight, 12 … (however) many tires that were on the outside of me would be better than none. It all worked out, and here we are."
The decision to come to pit road for tires under the final caution was a no-brainer, as Harvick and crew chief Gil Martin saw it.
"When the tires fall off almost two seconds, you've got to come in and get tires," he said. "There's not very many guys that stayed out. It all worked out tonight. We've been on the other side of it this year, so to be in Victory Lane is great."
Bowyer led 113 laps but didn't have a car that could stay with Harvick at the end.
"We had a good car — we just didn't have a great car," Bowyer said. "It seemed like we were just too tight on the throttle. … It really got wild there at the end. I was just lucky enough to be on the bottom (for the final restart).
"They started making holes up there in front of me, and the seas parted, and I just followed suit behind Harvick. It was a good run."
What was a two-man battle for more than half the race evolved into an unpredictable nexus of varying strategy and unexpected attrition.

I'll look forward to seeing them.
I was thinking of getting the X100 but based on price and the zoom lens I very recently went for the X10. I think I've made the right choice for my purposes but I'm still interested in peoples opinion of the X100.
Posted 06 May 2012 - 12:38 AM
I purchased an X100 in February and found it has the best IQ or any pocket camera. Easily better than some DSLR's. It is especially good with its flash as well and the viewfinder is really quite astonishing. It is also quite "fiddly", even quirky to use. I loved it but returned it. The real reason in the end being that I found I could not get along without a zoom of some kind on it but that's just me. I replaced it with a Canon S100 which is much easier to use and also very good. But not quite as good as the X100 in terms of picture quality. I miss the X100 badly but feel the XPro1 that would have addressed the lack of zoom with interchangeable lenses, etc. is simply silly money so I will be content with the Canon in my pocket. Its particular strengths seem to be macro and night work (very good in-camera processing of high ISO shots). I shall continue to miss the X100 and likely should have considered the X10 at the time.
Posted 26 June 2012 - 08:39 PM
Well, the photos are impressive. And for a camera as compact as that, it's really good enough. I bet you'd be able to do a lot with that.
Posted 17 July 2012 - 08:17 AM
I was out with the Fuji this weekend and a guy approached me asking me if that was indeed the X100 I had strapped around my neck. I told him Yes it is! and he continued on to say how Leica is now in trouble as the M9 will drop in sales. He asked Who would buy and M9 for $7000 when you can get an X100 for $1200″? I then went on to explain that the X100 is NOT a rangefinder camera, using manual focus with it (the x100) is slow, cumbersome, and unpleasant nothing like an M. I also pointed out that it has a different, smaller sensor size, and a fixed lens. Its also not built as well as the M9 nor does it give the total image quality of an M9. He thought for some reason that the X100 was a rangefinder! Made me wonder how many others out there thought the same thing?

Question: I have an unusual spider in my front yard. Can you tell me what it is?
Photographer: John Broomfield, Source: Museum Victoria
Answer: This spider is one of the species that are commonly called Golden Orb-weavers. They are so named because if you look at their webs in the right light, they have a distinct golden colour and so do their egg sacs. These beautiful spiders are native to Australia and belong to the genus Nephila which is represented in Australia by five species.
Given that your spider has been collected in Melbourne, it is most likely to be Nephila edulis. Despite the size of this spider, few bites have been recorded. The Golden Orb-weaver is not considered dangerous. Symptoms include localised mild pain and swelling, nausea and dizziness.
Golden Orb-weaving Spiders are not aggressive and their first response to a threat is usually to run. In fact the museum has been contacted by one enquirer who was so taken by his Golden Orb-weaver that he used to stroke her. You should of course do this at your own risk; a spider is quite likely to misread a friendly pat and bite in response to being touched.
Golden Orb-weaving Spider, Nephila edulisPhotographer: Alan Henderson, Source: Museum Victoria
While the female Nephila edulis is a large and impressive spider measuring up to 23 mm in length, the male of the species is only about 6 mm long. Males can usually be found at the edges of a female's web. The female has distinctive black brushes on 6 of her 8 legs.
A female Golden Orb-weaving Spider constructs a beautiful golden silk egg sac during early winter which is usually left in the tree that she constructed her web on. Golden Orb-weavers can be locally common, for example in the Darling Downs in Queensland a single dead tree can have as many as 30 individual golden orb weaver webs.
Hi Tamzin, Golden Orbweavers generally live for one year to 18 months, depending on the environmental conditions. For most of this time they are small and not particularly noticeable - it's only as they mature in mid to late summer that they become more obvious. The eggs will remain dormant throughout winter and hatch in early spring.
Hi Ingrid,
Golden Orb-weaving Spiders live on average for about twelve months.
Hello Marie, Thank you for deciding to use the discovery Centre for your enquiry regarding when the eggs of the golden orb spider hatch. We cannot provide exact information for every species, but generally it appears that the spider lays its eggs in late summer to autumn. During autumn, when the spiderlings emerge, they disperse by ballooning.
Hi Kim, we have asked the Live Exhibits Team and they have advised that although the Golden Orb Weaver is a large spider, they are reluctant to bite! The bite, when it does occur, is usually more of a nip than a bite. If your children are happy to watch the spider, and not touch, they should be fine!
Hi Nicholas, Golden Orbweavers are generally considered harmless and there's not usually any need to remove them. In addition, this time of year they are slowly dying out and will disappear completely when the seriously cold weather hits. This species usually lives in northern Victoria and they are not accustomed to the southern Victorian winters.
If you do need to move the spider, it can be placed in a jar by holding the jar over the spider at the front of the web, and using the jar lid to trap the spider from the back of the web. The silk is very strong and may need to be torn by hand. The spider can then be taken to a suitable location and the jar opened and tipped onto the bark of a large tree. Once settled in, the spider will find a good insect-catching location and spin a new web between two trees.
However, the spider may take some time to find a good location and, given the lateness of the season, may not survive long enough to set up a new home.
Hi Marilyn,
Please refer to our response on the 27th of March, as it is all explained there. Hope this helps!
Hi Teresa, thanks for the great feedback. And no, your Golden Orb Weaver does not have OCD! This is one of the characteristics of the Golden Orb Weaver. Check out images on the internet and you will see that this is not unusual.
Thanks for your email. The second webbing of the leaves is probably also an egg sac, as they sometimes lay more than one.
The spider has most likely died by now, as they tend to die off at the end of autumn. In some areas the spiders may survive into winter if the local conditions are warm enough, but in most areas they die off as soon as it gets cold.
The good news is that the spider has left behind a legacy in her egg sacs, which should hatch in a couple of months. The spiders will grow throughout late winter and spring, and start becoming visible in their webs towards the end of the year.
Aaron, thanks for the feedback. The abundance of these is likely to be seasonal and linked to the wet summer we have recently experienced, which may have triggered an abundance of food resources. Unfortunately, if it is weather linked, the abundance can't be readily predicted (no more than the weather can, at least)
Hope that is of some help
Hi Chris, at this time of year, female Golden Orbweavers produce eggs and then die off as the cold weather approaches. You were right to observe that she decreased in size considerably as she offloaded her batch of eggs (which may have been her first or even second batch). One or two batches will be hidden somewhere in foliage at the edge of what was her web. The eggs will hatch in the next few weeks and the spiderlings will disperse to grow throughout spring and summer.
The males of this species are very small and not often seen, and die off much earlier in the year than the females. Some females are still around, but most have died off and the rest will disappear in the next couple of weeks.
Hi Catherine, We have checked this out with the entomologist and she cannot be sure one way or the other. She has advised that they may be her babies, although because the weather has cooled down considerably, it would be normal for the egg sac to wait until Spring to hatch.
Hi Corey, the spiders are not known to dismantle their webs, and can sometimes be seen hanging in a complete web just after death. In northern Victoria earlier this year, at the end of summer when most big females died of old age, dozens could be seen dangling from perfect webs throughout the bush.
Spiders spend a lot of time tending to their web, and following a spider's death the web deteriorates surprisingly rapidly. This is because holes caused by leaves or twigs or flying insects are quickly repaired by the living spider, and smaller ongoing repairs also mitigate the effects of the elements (particularly wind) on the web. Once the spider is gone, the web starts to fall apart.
A second possible cause is that flying creatures with good eyesight, such as small birds, would avoid flying into a web if a spider as large as a Golden Orbweaver were present, but wouldn't be able to spot the web as easily without the spider present. In the case where the spider is attacked by a bird, either the spider survives with a damaged or destroyed web, then soon repairs it, or the spider dies and the web disappears along with the spider.
In either case, those are the only two options. Our best guess is that the eggs have been sheltered from sun through the current summer and it's taken a while for enough heat to accumulate within the egg sac.
In hot climates where water is available all year round, the spiders are likely to continue to breed throughout the year but still have a period of peak breeding during summer. It's not surprising then, that you're seeing the spiders increase and decrease in size as they produce batches of eggs.
Hi Steven - we checked with our Live Exhibits experts about this, and they have responded as follows:
Nephila edulis tend to produce only one egg sac per season, which explains why her abdomen inflated and deflated, but not why it did so repeatedly. A single egg sac may hold more than 380 eggs, so there will be plenty of offspring to carry on her legacy. Golden Orbweavers have a highly distensible abdomen which allows them to ingest large quantities of food when available and then digest it over several days. This may explain why she appeared tight and full, and then skinny and sagging, although it would be unusual for a spider to have access to very large meals at such regular intervals.
Hi Bron,
We don't know what type of wasps were present but at this time of year they are most likely to be Flower Wasps (Scolia soror) which feed on vines but not spiders. If wasps killed the spider, it would have been eaten or removed to be fed to wasp larvae in a nest. This time of year Golden Orbweavers also tend to die of old age as winter approaches, and the behaviour you described confims this as the most likely possibility.
Hi Chris - we checked with our Live Exhibits crew about this, and they've replied as follows:
Orbweaver spiderlings tend to balloon away on their silk threads as soon as they are born, and there are no other creatures that would use the same threads. A number of species of caterpillars (usually moths) also use silken threads, so what you describe is most likely one of these.
Hi Megan,Golden Orbweavers (Nephila species) are at their biggest during summer and this is the time females produce their golden egg sacs. They also tend to die off during autumn, leaving the egg sac to overwinter and hatch in early spring. Because they are larger at this time than the rest of the year, they are more easily spotted by birds and other predators, for which they (unfortunately for those that appreciate them) make a tasty meal. The bad news is that your spider was most likely taken by a bird or died of old age. The good news is that she probably secreted an egg sac somewhere nearby which will hatch later in the year and produce the next generation of orbweavers.
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.

Panasonic Lumix DMC G5 review: New features and a new sensorThursday October 04 2012 Sensor Review
Panasonic is adding its ninth model to its growing Lumix G-series lineup. In July, the Japanese electronics giant announced the Lumix DMC G5 would replace the Lumix DMC G3. Like its predecessor, the G5 taps the increasingly popular mirrorless Micro Four Thirds technology that Panasonic co-developed back in 2008 with its cross-town Tokyo rival Olympus.
The Lumix DMC G5 makes no revolutionary change in sensor size; both it and the G3 sport a 16-megapixel sensor. However, Panasonic coins the G5's sensor as 'digital' Live MOS, and claims this new chip gives the camera an improved low light performance over its more dated sibling. This is illustrated with a new maximum ISO setting of 12,800 versus the G3's 6400.
However, during DxOMark testing, the G5 didn't live up to Panasonic's low light claims. But it did make big image quality gains in one important category.
Pros of the Panasonic Lumix DMC G5:
• Improved ergonomics
• Eye popping 920k touchscreen
• 6 frames-per-second shooting
• Good color depth
• Improved dynamic range
Cons of the Panasonic Lumix DMC G5:
• Underwhelming low light performance

Further readings for the Panasonic Lumix DMC G5 review: New features and a new sensor
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
Panasonic has added a new member to its highly esteemed Lumix G-line. The 16-megapixel Lumix DMC G5 adopts the Japanese brand's mirrorless and Micro Four Thirds technology, and it replaces the one-year-old G3. But did Panasonic's renovation of features and design for the G5 extend to the camera's image quality? DxOMark has some answers.
Added by speculatrix | August 20 , 2012
am eagerly awaiting this!
I am contemplating the G3 or G5 and whilst I think the latter is a worthwhile upgrade on features, there is quite a price premium, and I wouldn't want to pay it if the sensor wasn't a significant upgrade. thanks.

Affordable Care Act overview
The Affordable Care Act is the nation's health reform law enacted in March 2010. It contains numerous provisions designed to expand health coverage to 30 million Americans; increase benefits and lower costs for consumers; provide new funding for public health and prevention; bolster our health care and public health workforce and infrastructure; foster innovation and quality in our system, and more.
Many Americans have misgivings about the Affordable Care Act. A CNN/ORC poll conducted in September 2013 showed support for the law at 39 percent, down from 51 percent in January 2013. Opponents say the country can't afford the ACA. They say it won't cut the cost of health care, but will expand the deficit, weaken the economy and cause employers to cut jobs. The Republican-led House of Representatives has voted dozens of times to repeal all or part of the law, but those efforts have gone nowhere in the Senate, where Democrats have the majority. President Barack Obama has postponed implementation of the so-called employer mandate until 2015, but shows no indication he will back down on what many consider to be the signature accomplishment of his first term.
The law consists of two pieces of legislation: the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act (HCERA). Jointly they are referred to as the Affordable Care Act or ACA. The information below comes from the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
How the ACA may affect Virginia
Because of the Affordable Care Act, the 88 percent of Virginians who have insurance will have more coverage choices than before. And for the 12 percent of Virginians who don't have insurance, or Virginia families and small businesses that buy their coverage but aren't happy with it, change is coming.
Soon, the new online Health Insurance Marketplace will provide families and small businesses who currently don't have insurance, or are looking for a better deal, a new way to find health coverage that fits their needs and their budgets.
Open enrollment in the Marketplace starts Oct. 1, with coverage starting as soon as Jan. 1, 2014. But Virginia families and small businesses can visit HealthCare.gov right now to find the information they need to prepare for open enrollment.
The ACA provides Virginians:
Cheaper prescription drugs for people with Medicare
$33,963,871 in total savings for 57,610 seniors, averaging $589.55 in savings per person in 2011
Free preventive services
1,056,000 people and 424,007 seniors with Medicare get preventive services for free
No more lifetime limits on care
2,043,000 people no longer have a lifetime limit on their care
Health insurance on your parents' plan
32,189 more young adults under age 26 now have insurance on their parents' plan
New rules on how insurers spend premiums
1,553,000 people protected by the 80/20 rule that requires insurers to spend 80 percent of premiums on care and quality
Coverage through a pre-existing condition insurance plan
244 people who were uninsured because of a pre-existing condition now have coverage
Affordable Insurance Exchange
$31,317,000 to help states build new marketplaces where consumers will have the same kinds of choices as members of Congress
Money for public health
$17,700,000 in grants to improve public health
Community health centers
$8,800,000 to support and expand community health centers

In large part due to its warm, sunny climate and relatively low cost of living, Arizona has been a retirement mecca for generations. In fact, the very first age-restricted community--Sun City--was built here in the 1960s. That concept has most fully flowered on the other side of the country, in Florida; yet Arizona can lay first claim to the concept, and many people still prefer the dry climate of the desert state.
There are three major population centers in Arizona: Tucson in the south; the gigantic Phoenix metropolitan area in the south-central region; and Flagstaff in the north-central region. Arizona's far northern region is vast and largely empty, consisting of widely-separated small settlements and large tracts of national parks, monuments, and recreation areas. It is also home to some of the largest Indian reservations in the country.
