Nike launched the Nike SB line in March of 2002 at the start of the rise of the Skateboarding trend. For years in California, the skate culture was very popular and skateboarding shoes and clothes were worn more as casual wear than by actual skateboarders. Nike saw the potential to tapping into this market and thus launched the Nike Skateboarding line.Nike launched their skateboarding lines on the back of the Nike Dunks SB. The Nike Skateboarding Dunks were the same shape and fit as the Nike Dunks, but with several performance changes.First of all, Nike knew that with the wear and tear of the foot, a good cushioning system was needed. Since skateboarding shoes need to have a low center of gravity, the Nike Dunks SBs had Zoom Air insoles.

Festus the Fetus pics8:47 AM Edit This 2 Comments »
Here are the ultrasound pics! There was a heartbeat at 171 bpm and this little booger was doing a dance. Shaking its shoulders and then its hips, over and over. Lo kept saying "he's dancing all over!" Very cute... and quite possibly the reason I've been so sick. Maybe if he/she held still for a while, I'd feel better. But I am not in charge right now, so whatever. I've long since given up hope of control during the next 6 1/2 months. I have my first doc appointment tomorrow, they'll go over the ultrasound with me, but pretty sure all is well. The ultrasound techs guess at a due date is October 6-13th. I figured October 10, so somewhere in there. I'll get a more "solid" date after tomorrow.

Library and Archives Canada has announced major reductions in hours of service at it's main building at 395 Wellington Street in Ottawa as of 1 September. The announcement came as a surprise; as far as I can determine there was no client consultation and the change is announced at a time when many regular patrons are away with their attentions elsewhere.
30% reduction
According to a post on the LAC web site, weekday full service hours will be 10 am to 4 pm, that's 30 hours a week. These are the hours during which LAC professional staff can be consulted and materials ordered. At present these services are provided from 8:30 am to 5 pm on weekdays, that's 42.5 hours a week. The reduction in service hours is nearly 30%.
23% reduction
Hours when pre-ordered and self-service materials can be examined are also being reduced. On weekdays the building will be opening at 8:30 am and closing at 8 pm. At present the weekday hours for much of this material is 8 am to 11 pm. The reduction in hours is 23%.
60% reduction
The cuts are even more drastic on weekends. The present availability of pre-ordered and self-service materials from 8 am to 11 pm is being reduced to noon to 6pm, a 60% reduction.
The announcement gives the following rationale:
Library and Archives Canada is committed to providing quality services to all Canadians, wherever they live. To honour this commitment, we are adjusting our hours of operation, in keeping with the anticipated needs of clients and evolving information technologies. We are steadily adding documentary heritage material to our website, thereby increasing access to the collection for Canadians both in the National Capital Region and across the country.
I shall be writing directly to Antonio Lachasseur, Director, Client Services Division, with the following comments:
1. The changes were announced without opportunity for meaningful client consultation. A widely advertised consultation session should be conducted at 395 Wellington early in September, with any change in hours deferred until client's feedback can be taken into consideration.
2. The 30% reduction in full service hours, to 30 hours per week, is an appalling standard of service for an organization like LAC. It puts LAC right at the bottom of the league table, and trailing badly, when benchmarking against comparable organizations. The weekly core service hours at the (US) National Archives in Washington are 40; the UK National Archives (Kew) 48.5; the Archives of Ontario 44; Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec in Montreal 54.
3. The reduction in weekday full-service hours in the mornings, and elimination of all weekend morning service, will be keenly felt.
4. No reductions should be implemented in the time available to access the already frustratingly cumbersome and delay-ridden process for ordering and obtaining delivery of materials.
5. The reduced hours will be a particular inconvenience to those from outside Ottawa visiting LAC on research trips who expect to work long hours and over weekends to justify the trip expenses.
6. It is paradoxical that LAC having recently gone to considerable expense to create a physical Canadian Genealogy Centre these reductions now make the facility less accessible.
7. There are still major records not online, most notably census images from 1861 to 1891. While technology has evolved to the point where this can be done LAC has not yet chosen to make such key records available online. Until such common records are online it is premature to make major reductions in physical access.
The LAC announcement includes "Should you have comments or questions, you may wish to contact Antonio Lechasseur, Director, Client Services Division at firstname.lastname@example.com or 613-996-5115 or 1-866-578-7777 (toll-free in Canada and the United States); TTY: 613-992-6969 or 1-866-299-1699 (toll-free in Canada)."
I encourage all to express their views to Mr Lachasseur.

The changes were announced without opportunity for meaningful client consultation.
In other words... they were done in the way LAC always does things: shoot first, consult later - maybe.
It is pathetic how much contempt that institution has for the people who justify its existence.
- 10 September, 2007 11:57
I cannot understand these changes. When I go to the archives it is to work ALL day and into the evening, and I live in the area. Imagine people from out of town/country! I see no reason why at least the Reading Rooms cannot be kept open from 7AM to 11PM. The guards who think you are going to steal everything not nailed down might have to stay AWAKE!

text: Tonight I Pray that the Holy Spirit gives you get a real hunger for His Word so that you can grow strong as a believer in Jesus Christ. That you will realize that following Jesus is more than just saying a prayer or being born into a Christian family. A Christian is a person who has, by faith, received and fully trusted in Jesus Christ as the only Savior. I pray that you realize this is not our home we are only here temporarily and that the glitz and the glitter of this world are only temporal and will never last. The world will always leave you wanting more never satisfied and always thirsting for more… Jesus always satisfies our thirst and when we walk in the Light of HIS Presence, we become a beacon of light so that others may be drawn to Him. His Light is brilliant and everlasting!!! I pray that you stay close to Him in these last days. In Jesus name I pray, Amen and Amen… I Love you All… God bless you!!!! ♥♥♥

School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences
Neuroscience (B.S.)
Neuroscience is the multidisciplinary study of brain function that draws on recent advances in cell and molecular biology, biochemistry, biophysics, and computer and behavioral and cognitive sciences. It examines the brain's global and nanoscale biochemistry, its complex and extensively networked anatomical structure, and its remarkably adaptive physiology. The field considers neuronal development from early embryology through advanced senescence, and examines the brain's plasticity from the level of single proteins, of individual neurons, up through the level of networks or systems of cells, on up to complete behaving organisms. It studies the regulation and expression of behavior, the impact of that behavior on the brain, and the complex interactions of multiple neuronal systems that underlie the emergence of cognitive function. The Neuroscience program at UT Dallas provides students with the opportunity to focus on the brain from a systems-level perspective, drawing on behavioral and cognitive expertise combined with cellular and molecular analyses. It allows undergraduates extensive interactions with working neuroscientists who use the latest experimental techniques.
The Neuroscience program is designed to prepare students for admission to graduate, medical, or dental school, or for careers in related biomedical research, industry, and allied health science fields. Required courses and guided electives can include the approved pre-medical curriculum and offer an alternative to other traditional pre-health majors. Students who wish to continue their education in the fields of medicine, dentistry or allied professional areas should register with the Health Professions Advisory Committee during their first semester. Students are encouraged to design a personalized degree plan of guided electives with their advisor that combines courses from the neurosciences and related disciplines of mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, computer science, psychology, and speech pathology and audiology in a way that will suit their individual interests and goals. Students are also strongly encouraged to gain research experience as part of their undergraduate training in Neuroscience.

Exemption of bifacial cell technology from Section 201 measures to accelerate switch from mono to bifacial cell lines outside of China and drive demand in the United StatesJune 17, 2019On 13 June 2019, United States Federal trade authorities ruled that bifacial solar modules will be exempt from Section 201 tariffs, as outlined in a notice from the Office of the United States Trade Representative. The ruling will dramatically increase demand for bifacial solar modules in the United States due to the opportunity of avoiding tariff rates of 15% to 25% through February 2022, in addition to the benefits of higher efficiencies and energy yields associated with such products. IHS Markit expects that demand for bifacial modules in the United States will be primarily served by manufacturing lines across Southeast Asia, as products shipped from China will still face antidumping and Section 301 tariffs that will make them less competitive.Subscribers Only

Declining PPA prices under the shadow of the Section 201 Trade Case in the United StatesJanuary 22, 2018In the second half of 2017, a number of utility-scale PV solar projects were awarded contracts with record low PPA prices for the US market. The decline of PPA prices has been primarily driven by continued technology and manufacturing innovation across the value chain. What is striking about the announced prices for these utility-scale plants is the timeline in which these deals have been made. Despite the strategies developers may have for their projects, success may ultimately depend on how stringent the remedies for the trade case will be.Subscribers Only
Despite uncertainty generated by domestic policy reform, the United States will remain a top 3 global market for PVJanuary 16, 2018IHS Markit recently cut its PV installation forecast for the United States by over 6 GW from 2018 to 2021, primarily due to a weakened environment for utility-scale PV as new import tariffs threaten to negatively impact the economics of such projects. Provided new tariffs are eventually imposed at or around the 30% level proposed by the United States International Trade Commission (US ITC), IHS Markit forecasts the United States will remain a top 3 global market for PV, along with China and India, installing a total of 57 GW from 2018 to 2021.

A driving restriction is a limitation of your driving privileges that may have been imposed for various reasons. The MVA may restrict your driving privileges as a result of a judge's decision in a court or administrative hearing case in which you are involved, because of an alcohol or drug related incident, or for medical or other reasons.
What kinds of driving restrictions may be imposed?
Depending upon your situation, one of the following types of restrictions may be placed on your driving record:
- Work or education restriction
You may be limited to driving only to and from work or school and during the course of your employment. In some instances, your employer may be asked to verify your employment in writing.
- Medical restriction You may be required to use special equipment when driving, or your driving times and/or driving area may be limited. The types of medical restrictions that may be imposed include:
- Corrective lenses required
- Adaptive equipment required
- Hand control
- Spinner knob
- Left foot accelerator
- Outside mirrors required on both sides of the vehicle
- Prosthetic aid required
- Automatic transmission required
- Daylight driving only permitted
- Driving limited to a certain geographical area
- No driving on expressways, beltways, or interstate highways
- Alcohol/drug restriction
You are prohibited from driving or attempting to drive a motor vehicle after consuming alcohol, or any other mood altering substance, in any amount. Furthermore, if you receive two alcohol related convictions within a 2-year period you will be subject to a 3-year alcohol restriction. If you are under 21 years of age you are restricted from driving or attempting to drive a motor vehicle while having a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level between .02 grams/100ml and .08 grams/100 ml.
- Ignition interlock device restriction
You are required to install and maintain an Alcohol Breath-Analyzed Ignition Interlock Device in your vehicle. You must breathe into this device every time you start your vehicle so that it can test for the presence of alcohol in your system. See Ignition Interlock Program for more information about this process, or contact an ignition interlock service provider.
What happens when a decision is made to impose a driving restriction?
Once it is determined that your driving privilege must be restricted, you will receive a letter that explains the type of restriction and how you can obtain a new, restricted driver's license at any MVA branch office. The restriction will be marked on the front of your driver's license.
If you do not comply with the restriction rules, your driver's license will be suspended, or other actions may be taken to further limit your driving privileges.
- There is a fee for a new driver's license. If the restriction is imposed because of your physical impairment, or if you are required to add adaptive equipment to your vehicle, the MVA will issue you a new, restricted license at no cost to you. However, if you are eligible to have your driver's license renewed when the restriction is applied (6 months or less prior to the expiration of your driver's license), you will be requested to pay the standard license renewal fee.
- There are fees associated with the installation of an Ignition Interlock Device.

Yellow-rumped Warbler
Dendroica coronata
About This Animal
SIZE: 5.5 inches
RANGE: Widespread over Canada and the United States during the summer, and into Mexico during the winter
HABITAT: Forests and woodlands
DIET: Feeds on insects, invertebrates, berries, and grass seed; Feeds mostly on ground, or flutters in the air to catch insects
ON EXHIBIT: Cove Forest in River Journey
These birds are one of the first migrant birds to return North during the spring. They are able to digest waxes found in wax myrtles and bayberries which gives it a broader range, with sightings as far north as Canada.
Their population may be slightly increasing, as this bird is very widespread. The biggest threat for these birds is flying into man-made obstacles such as buildings, windows, radio towers, etc. In order to help prevent these things, lights on buildings, reflective tape or stickers on windows, and lights on radio towers can give the birds more warning.

Danny Popp Goes for a Spin
In this sequence of photos, Danny Popp is showing off major car control during the 2014 Real Street Eliminator held at National Trial Raceway in Hebron, Ohio, on July 15. One component of the competition is the stop box, an eighth-mile run from a standing start to a 40 ft. box demarcated with traffic cones. The object of the game is to accelerate as fast as possible, and come to a stop within the box.
The ultra-excited guy with the flag is Jeff Smith. His job is to flag the tower in the event of a cone violation, a job he takes seriously. Even through Danny was sideways at freeway speed in front of him, Jeff never took his eye off the cones and put the flag up for a successful run. Danny went on to win the RSE with the fastest average in the stop box, on the autocross, and on the drag strip where he averaged in the mid-11s. Danny and his 1972 Corvette are something to see.
Danny's car is powered by a Lingenfelter Performance Engineering 388-inch LS engine with LS7 heads prepped by The School of Automotive Machinists and a Lunati rotator. It makes about 550hp and weighs 3,050 pounds.
The St. Paul version of the RSE happens this weekend at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds. Sign up and play or just watch the action starting this Friday, July 18, 2014.

Botswana has some of Africa's most remote protected land. How can we protect the iconic animals that live there?
Have a question?
How would you prefer us to contact you?
By EmailBy Phone
In the world's largest multicountry protected area, help save some of Africa's most iconic species.
Visit a place where lions still stalk the grasslands, wild dogs roam in packs, and cheetahs fearlessly chase their prey. This is the Kavango–Zambezi Transboundary Protected Area (KAZA), a massive swath of protected land that stretches over five countries and is Africa's best hope for keeping its wilderness alive.
But even in northern Botswana, home to some of the KAZA's most remote wilderness, lion and African wild dog populations are declining, following the sad trends observed in more populated areas. And scientists don't have enough information on cheetahs, leopards, many small carnivores, and the prey species on which these carnivores depend to know how they are faring. This information is critical if we hope to understand the threats to the African savanna.
Join a team that will collect this vital information. Help capture lions, leopards, and other predators, then fit them with tracking collars and take samples for genetic analysis. Traverse the near-pristine landscapes to monitor camera traps and survey vegetation. Observe animals by spotlight at night and near waterholes by day. And as you work to protect it, get closer to wild Africa than any safari will take you.
Lions and leopards have begun to disappear from their habitats. Cheetah and African wild dog populations have dwindled alarmingly.
The vast protected savanna of the KAZA could be one of the few places left where threatened species can thrive.
The KAZA is a special place. For one thing, it hosts populations of predators and prey that haven't been fragmented by urban development or other human activity, which is increasingly difficult to find in modern Africa. And this community of creatures lives in a vast expanse of nearly untouched savanna—a rarity on the continent, and in the world.
Cheetahs display their speed.
So this is the perfect area in which to research the health of and threats to the animals that depend on this fragile ecosystem. Lions, for example, have disappeared from many regions they inhabited less than two decades ago. By studying them here in the KAZA, we can learn about factors that have likely contributed to their decline—population dynamics, disease susceptibility, genetics—in the absence of interference from human activities like trophy hunting and urbanization.
Botswana, too, is a special place for conservation research. Its policymakers have a strong commitment to protecting their wilderness, which means that the results of this research have a receptive audience. You won't just help broaden the knowledge about these fragile species; the data you collect will translate into action.
Botswana, one of the most sparsely populated countries on the planet, has some of the richest concentrations of wildlife in Africa. The country is also known for its friendly people and stable government (and to fans of novelist Alexander McCall Smith as the setting for his delightful First Ladies Detective Agency series). Botswana draws its diverse cultural heritage from the Tswana, Griqua, and Bantu people. Because it was once a colony of Great Britain, its official language is English.
The KAZA is a few hours from the town of Kasana, near the convergence of four international borders (Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe, and Zambia). Kasane hosts many international visitors because of its proximity to Chobe National Park, a popular safari destination, and the Zambezi River, home to the famed Victoria Falls.
This is a summary:
After waking up to the sunrise over the savanna, you'll have breakfast and begin the day's research tasks. You'll get to try all activities, working in small groups and rotating throughout the expedition. The groups will generally work on one task in the morning, then break for lunch either in the field or back at camp, then work on another task. So, for example, you might spend the morning collecting vegetation samples or animal feces (scat) out in the wild, then return to the laboratory tent during the hottest part of the day to sort and analyze the data you've brought home. After a leisurely dinner, the team may spend more time with the data or head back into the wilderness with a spotlight to observe nocturnal animals. Throughout the expedition, you'll also have time to relax and enjoy your surroundings.
Capturing lions, cheetahs, and other carnivores is unpredictable, so when the opportunity arises, the team will stop regularly scheduled activities to work with the captured animals. Researchers will immobilize the animal and fit it with a tracking collar, then draw blood and take tissue samples for health and genetic analysis. This may be the closest you'll ever get to a wild African carnivore.
Note: Field conditions and research needs can lead to changes in the itinerary and activities. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding.

Dr. Anthony J. Giordano is among the first researchers to investigate the population and status of ocelots in Trinidad. He aims to increase awareness of this species in order to protect them from conflict with people, and use them as conservation planning tools for Trinidad's landscapes.
Volunteers will stay in a comfortable tented safari camp near the research site. You'll get to truly immerse yourself in the quiet and simplicity of wilderness life. While in the field you'll enjoy traditional southern African cuisine, which includes lots of grains, fish, and meat. You'll also have plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. Regional dishes you might get to try include boerewors (spiced beef sausage), samp (chopped dried corn kernels), and vetkoek (deep-fried pastry filled with ground beef, honey, or jam).

I have a small floating weed in my pond. I think it is duckweed, how do I know and how do I treat it?
Jason – Raleigh, NC
Duckweed can be a real nuisance if not identified and treated correctly. As it is a prolific grower it can quickly make your pond or lake look more like a golf course in a relatively short period of time. Duckweed is a small floating weed with a single root hair extending from the bottom of each individual leaf. Each green leaflet is about 1/8" of an inch in size and you should be able to fit about 5 to 10 on the tip of your finger. Duckweed can sometimes be confused with watermeal which is also a small green floating weed. Watermeal differs from duckweed in that it is much smaller and has a grainy or almost sandy feel to it if you hold it in your hands.
You can treat duckweed with two different methods. The first method is by spraying contact herbicide like Ultra PondWeed Defense® & Treatment Booster™ PLUS directly onto the floating masses with a pond sprayer. This method typically yields fast results but tends to be a quick fix that ends up resulting in new growth reforming over just a few weeks. If you need to whip your pond into shape for a planned day or two event, then spraying your pond with a contact herbicide may be an appropriate treatment for you.
For longer lasting control of duckweed you can treat the pond with Sonar™ A.S. aquatic herbicide. This product works by inhibiting the plants ability to produce carotene and as a result chlorophyll is degraded by the sunlight and the weed dies. There are however a few things you will need to check before adding it to your pond to ensure a successful treatment. Most importantly, Sonar™ A.S has a 30 day irrigation restriction meaning that if you water your plants or grass with your pond water you will not be able to do so for at least 30 days. Secondly, Sonar™ A.S needs to maintain a high concentration in the pond for up to 90 days. If your pond is prone to overflow or has an inlet/outlet chances are that the Sonar™ A.S will rinse out of your pond to quickly making the treatment less effective. A good way to visually check your water loss is to color the water body with pond dye. Dye will typically remain in your pond for 2-4 weeks in normal conditions. If your pond looses color sooner then it is a great indicator that too much water is exiting the pond. As Sonar™ A.S is degraded by sunlight it is important that you dye your pond while you are chemically treating the water body. When applying Sonar™ A.S use a pressurized tank sprayer and submerge the spray nozzle to apply the herbicide beneath the surface of the pond where it is safe from evaporation and sun exposure.
The best time to use Sonar™ A.S is early in the spring a couple of weeks before you normally see duckweed forming in your pond. This will give the herbicide a chance to establish itself in the pond and discourage plant growth before it gets out of control.

|Boston Acoustics CS 226 loudspeakers & 10Wi Subwoofer Review
|Tuesday, 10 August 2010
Page 1 of 2
There are certain names in the speaker business that it seems like everyone knows. Boston Acoustics is one such name. The company has been building speakers since 1979 but hasn't forgotten its two-channel "stereo" roots. But even a dedicated two-channel guy like myself has come to appreciate the home theater experience, so I split the difference for this review and asked Boston Acoustics for a traditional pair of floorstanding loudspeakers along with a subwoofer. I received a pair of BA's CS (Classic Series) 226 floorstanders ($229.99/each) in tandem with the company's 10Wi wireless-ready subwoofer ($499.99) I've found that nearly every loudspeaker benefits from having a bass-focused brother on the floor, and this 2.1 setup was no exception.
My setup with the 226s and 10Wi is probably unusual compared to how most consumers would use the three speakers, but it worked well for me. I connected the trio to a two-channel integrated amplifier (Pathos Logos, a review of which will be forthcoming here). The 226s went to the standard right/left channel, while I hooked the sub to the amp's pre-out. The Logos is an A/B design that produces 110 watts into 8 ohms. What I found is that the amp could easily drive the speakers to listenable levels at very low volumes, yet hold nothing back in a recording. This speaks surely to the amp's own abilities but also tells me that the 226s can shine brightly given enough juice. This 89Db speaker operated like a speaker with greater sensitivity. That's good news if you struggle to listen in an apartment or other setting where keeping the neighbors happy is a must.

That Which is Unsustainable Will Go Away: Medicare
Medicare is an example of an unsustainable system that will go away in the decade ahead.
Here are the sobering facts about the number of workers and those drawing Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid entitlements in the U.S. While the government claims to have a "trust fund" to pay for Social Security and Medicare, this is illusory propaganda. There are no funds set aside to pay these entitlements--they are "pay as you go" programs funded by current tax revenues. If the tax revenues don't cover the programs' expenses, the Treasury sells bonds, i.e. issues debt to pay the entitlements.
Social Security (SSA) has 61 million beneficiaries as of March 2012.
Medicare has 49 million beneficiaries as of November 2011.
Medicaid has over 50 million beneficiaries; another source puts the current number at 58 million.
Kaiser Family Foundation says roughly 7 million "dual-eligibles" who receive both Medicaid and Medicare, so let's use the data point of 50 million Medicaid-only recipients.
We can assume that most people drawing Medicare benefits also draw Social Security, while the 8+ million drawing disability from Social Security are also covered by Medicaid.
However you slice it, there are roughly 60 million people drawing Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid and another 50 million Medicaid recipients for a total of 110 million people drawing significant entitlements.
As I have noted here many times, there are only 115 million full-time jobs in the U.S.
That means the ratio of workers to recipients of significant "pay as you go" entitlements is roughly 1-to-1: 115 million full-time workers and 110 million people drawing Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid.
These programs consume the majority of the Federal budget. The Federal government spends around $3.7 trillion and collects around $2.6 trillion in taxes, so the basic deficit is $1.1 trillion. Off-balance sheet "supplemental appropriations" mean the real deficit is actually considerably higher.
Social Security costs $817 billion, Medicare and Medicaid costs total about $800 billion annually, and program outlays rise every year. The Pentagon/National Security budget is around $690 billion.
As I detailed in The Fraud at the Heart of Social Security (January 17, 2011), the program paid out $707 billion in 2010 and collected $631 billion in taxes, a $76 billion shortfall for 2010. The current program (2012) cost is $817 billion, a leap of $100 billion in a few short years as Baby Boomers flood into the program.
Of the roughly 150 million workers in the U.S., 38 million earn less than $10,000 per year, 50 million earn less that $15,000 a year and 61 million earn less than $20,000 annually. All these numbers are drawn directly from Social Security Administration payroll data.
100 million wage earners, or 2/3 the entire workforce, earn less than $40,000 per year.
Median pay in the U.S. is about $26,360 annually, while the average pay is about $40,000. Since the average American household takes in $63,091 per year, it seems the typical wage is roughly $30,000 a year.
The Medicare tax is 2.9% of wages, 1.45% each for employer and employee. If the typical worker makes $30,000 a year for 35 years, then lifetime earnings are about $1 million. If we take the $40,000/year average, then that rises to around $1.4 million in lifetime earnings. The 2.9% Medicare tax thus totals about $30,000 to $40,000 in lifetime contributions for the average worker.
The average benefits extracted from the system run from $393,000 to $525,000 (due to the benefits extended to non-working spouses, benefits for never-married people may be somewhat lower). Average annual costs per beneficiary run as high as $18,000, though expenses typically rise significantly in the last year of life.
As I have reported here earlier, a friend's father was in the hospital a few years ago for less than a week for "observation" and a non-invasive gall-stone procedure. Medicare was billed $120,000, or roughly the lifetime contributions of three workers for this modest procedure and a few days in a hospital. My Mom had an office procedure performed on one of her toes and Medicare was billed $12,000. An office procedure (not in surgery) that took a few minutes absorbed 1/3 of my entire lifetime contributions to Medicare.
What we have is a system where the full-time worker to beneficiary is already 1-to-1 and the system pays out 10 times more per person than it collects in taxes. The Medicare system would need about 10 workers for every beneficiary to be sustainable. Right now the ratio is just above 2-to-1. That simply is not sustainable.
Tweaking the payouts doesn't change the basic math: "pay as you go" entitlements are not sustainable when the number of recipients equals the number of full-time workers. Programs that pay out $400,000 per person (many of whom did not work a lifetime) and collect $40,000 per lifetime of full-time work are not sustainable.
Wishing the math were different does not make it different.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. - After one of the most sucessful seasons in program history, the Santa Clara University men's tennis squad has finished as the country's No. 33-ranked team in the Intercollegiate Tennis Assosciation's (ITA) final rankings.
From the beginning of the fall season in October, through the NCAA tournament in May, the 2011-12 Broncos achieved unprecedented success. SCU garnered team-bests, all-time highs and personal accolades, and the year was capped by the team's first NCAA tournament birth.
Before the season even started, Santa Clara added a first in school history. Seniors Nicolas Vinel and Kyle Dandan became the highest Bronco doubles team to be in the opening ITA fall rankings. The two seniors started the fall as the No. 37-ranked doubles pairing. Although it was a great honor, the team's depth allowed Dandan and Vinel to play with other partners throughout the 2011-12 season.
Santa Clara competed in two tournaments during the fall, the ITA regional held in Seattle, Wash. and the Gael Classic in Moraga, Calif. All the Broncos who participated gained valuable experiences, which helped them in preparing for the spring season. The fall season was highlighted by two Broncos making the Round of 16 at the ITA Regional and Vinel making the semis at the Gael Classic.
Retrospectively, sophomore John Lamble's surge into the Round of 16 at the ITA Regional displayed why he would have such a successful 2011-12 campaign. Dandan also played his way into the Round of 16. At the Gael Classic, Vinel upset the No. 1 seed in the quarters on his way to a semifinal appearance.
Opening the spring, Santa Clara owned a No. 50 national ranking and after picking up two opening-week victories traveled to Palo Alto, Calif. for the ITA Kickoff Weekend event.
At the ITA Kickoff Weekend, held at Stanford on Jan. 27 and 28, Santa Clara got its first test against a ranked opponent. The Broncos showed their promise by beating then-No. 48 Boise State in a decisive 5-2 win.
After dropping two matches to Stanford and Fresno State, Santa Clara surged through its next opponents. From Feb. 10 through 24 Santa Clara was on a road-swing, including a two-match trip to Texas. In the Lonestar State, Santa Clara blasted SMU and picked up its second win against a ranked opponent by beating then-No. 44 TCU.
After returning home at the end of February, the Broncos dropped a close match to Arkansas. However, the following day, a win over Pacific started an eight-match winning streak, including topping then-No. 38 BYU in their West Coast Conference opener. The streak lifted Santa Clara to an all-time school best ranking by the ITA, jumping to No. 29 nationally.
Sitting at 15-3 and 2-0 in the WCC, Santa Clara began April against the highest-ranked opponent on its schedule, then-No. 7 Pepperdine. Ranked No. 31 at the time, the Broncos fell to the Waves, but recovered by blasting San Francisco to sit at 16-3 and 2-1 in conference play.
Santa Clara surged through its next matches and had an all-important bout with then-No. 19 San Diego. In an exciting match, Santa Clara bested its WCC foe 4-3 to add another marquee win.
During the final week of WCC play, the Broncos sat at No. 30 in the country and had the opportunity to pick up another program record. Santa Clara, at 19-4 overall, was two wins away from breaking the school record for victories in a season. With two WCC wins against Portland and Gonzaga in the final week, the Broncos surpassed the 20-win mark, establishing a new SCU win's record of 21.
The Broncos clinched a second-place finish in the WCC and were awarded the No. 2 seed in the conference tournament. In the semis, Santa Clara could not overcome the host Toreros of San Diego.
With a 21-5 regular season mark, the Broncos awaited word from the NCAA on its postseason fate. During the live selection show, the men's tennis squad and the coaches, along with a number of supporters, waited anxiously in the Leavey Center suite until their at-large bid was announced. For the first time ever, Santa Clara men's tennis would be playing in the NCAA tournament.
The first match of the NCAA's was no easy task; the Broncos' first opponent was No. 19 Texas, who would be making their 30th appearance in the tournament. In one of the most exciting tennis matches of the year, Santa Clara battled to win an all-important doubles point. Up 1-0, Santa Clara tabbed three more wins including a tie-breaking, comeback victory from the WCC Freshman of the Year, Ilya Osintsev, that ended the match. In their first ever appearance, Santa Clara had won its first ever NCAA Tournament match and did it in front of a large crowd of Bronco fans that made the short trip to Palo Alto.
Following the win over No. 19 Texas, Santa Clara fought valiantly against No. 11 Stanford but could not overcome the Cardinal, who was serving as a regional host.
In a year of firsts, Santa Clara achieved many, including the ultimate team honor, making the NCAA tournament.
Kyle Dandan
In his final season as a Bronco, Dandan capped off a phenomenal career by picking up First Team All-WCC singles honors and a Honorable Mention in doubles. Santa Clara's No. 1 singles player was ranked as high as No. 78 by the ITA, the highest-ever individual ranking for a Santa Clara player. Dandan played as the Broncos No. 1 singles player all season and picked up huge wins for Santa Clara. The senior continually saw opponents' best players, playing nine ranked opponents during the 2011-12 season. One of his best wins was against Cal Poly's Andre Dome, who was ranked No. 20 at the time. On the season Dandan was 18-10 as a singles player. In doubles, Dandan appeared most frequently with junior Tom Pham as the No. 2 tandem. Dandan was also First Team All-WCC last year. He is the first player since Lars Nelson in 1999-2000 to be named All-WCC First Team in back-to-back seasons (only two players in school history). Dandan was Honorable Mention his sophomore year.
Nico Vinel
Vinel had another impressive season for the Broncos. As the No. 3 singles player, Vinel ended his Santa Clara career with a 20-11 record during the 2011-12 campaign. Vinel was instrumental in the Broncos' first win against a ranked opponent, Boise State, when he defeated Garrett Patton in straight sets. In doubles, Vinel worked with several Broncos on the No. 3 doubles team.
Eugene Muchynski
Muchynski was one of the Broncos most improved players in 2011-12. The Bay Area native amassed a 13-2 record during the months of March and April to help solidify the Broncos hold on second place in the WCC. Click here for a feature article written on Muchynski.
Kyohhei Kamono
In limited action this season, Kamono was a key facet of the Broncos depth. Kamono garnered an Honorable Mention nod from the WCC on the All-Academic list. Kamono, a sophomore engineering major who sports a 3.841 grade point average, was a vital change-of-pace player for Santa Clara. During the spring, he posted a 4-1 singles record. His biggest win came against then-No. 57 UNLV when he spelled a sick Ilya Osinstev en route to a 7-0 Santa Clara victory. As a doubles player, Kamono partnered with three different teammates and accrued a 6-2 record during doubles play.
John Lamble
During his sophomore year, Lamble cemented himself as one of the Broncos' top players. Playing behind Dandan, Lamble was a mainstay as the No. 2 singles player. Lamble ended the season with a team-best 25 wins. The sophomore from Saratoga, Calif. jumped into the ITA's latest singles ranking at No. 123. Lamble strung together six consecutive wins during the month of April. For his outstanding play as the Broncos' No. 2 singles player, Lamble garnered Second Team All-WCC singles accolades. As a doubles player, Lamble and Osintsev gave the Broncos a youthful No. 1 team that was ranked for a majority of the season. They received Second Team-All WCC honors and were named the WCC Doubles Players of the Month during March.
Ilya Osintsev
Osintsev immediately made a splash on the Mission Campus. Osintsev decided to make the move from Russia to Santa Clara late and was added to the roster just prior to the school year. He made an impact right away as the No. 5 singles player. After losing against Boise State, the freshman blazed through his next 14 opponents. For his regular-season play, Osintsev was named the 2012 WCC Freshman of the Year. He was just the second Bronco to receive the honor. He finished the season 20-3, winning arguably SCU's biggest single match of the year. In the NCAA tournament's first round, Osintsev was up a set and had the chance to end the dual match against Texas. Despite falling behind 4-0 in the second set, Osintsev roared back. He used an ace that wowed the crowd to give him some breathing room in the tiebreaker, and eventually held off his opponent 7-6 (3), 7-6 (5). In doubles, Osintsev teamed up with Lamble to be a formidable No. 1 duo. They received Second Team-All WCC honors and were named the WCC Doubles Players of the Month during March.
Maxime Armengaud
Having missed a good portion of the year due to injury, the senior continued to be a strong player and motivator for Santa Clara. Armengaud played just three singles matches before getting hurt. Before his injury, he teamed with Vinel to give the Broncos a very good No. 3 doubles team. During his injury, Armengaud was the ultimate team player and his constant support paid off when he was able to return from injury to play with Vinel in the NCAA tournament matches against Texas and Stanford.
Tom Pham
Pham started the season on fire for the Broncos. The junior played as the No. 4 singles player all year. At one point he won 16-straight matches and finished second on the team in overall wins (23). Pham picked up All-WCC Honorable Mention honors in both singles and doubles. As a doubles player, Pham and Dandan turned into a formidable No. 2 tandem that helped the Broncos routinely secure the doubles point during dual matches.
Program Bests
Congratulations to the Broncos on an outstanding 2011-12 season!

IF we were to start the season with the squad we've got now I'd be satisfied.
We've kept the players we wanted to keep, getting David Dunn and Jordan Rhodes to sign new contracts, brought three squad players in for competition, and got rid of some of the deadwood.
So if I was Gary Bowyer I'd be tempted to say, 'no, that's enough for now', and hang fire until January and see where we are then.
If he needs to dive back in the market then – and his budget allows him to do so – that will be the time to do it.
I know there is a suggestion that we still need a right back but I think we're pretty covered there now with Alex Baptiste coming in to rival Adam Henley and also having Jason Lowe to play there.
I think bringing Alex in is a good move and I think he will prove to be a canny signing.
I remember him best as a centre back for Blackpool but he can also play right back and, at a push, left back it seems too.
I see we're being linked with goalkeepers again but for me I think we've already got a good number one in Paul Robinson.
All right he's not getting any younger but he's got the experience and in what is still a youngish squad that could be invaluable.
I don't think the back-ups are too bad either and that's why I'd be tempted to stick with the three keepers we've got unless, of course, one of them wants to get out on loan after having a taste of first-team football last season while Robbo was injured.
One player who will definitely be starting the season for us is Jordan Rhodes.
I'm pleased to see he's signed a new contract because he has earned it. It may be costing Blackburn more in wages but it's better to have a player like Jordan on contract for as long as you possibly can because if someone does come in, they're going to have to pay big money.
You could argue that contracts don't mean a lot in football nowadays – if a player wants to go and kicks up a fuss, he'll probably go – but the longer a player is on contract the more protection that should give to a club.
I said when Jordan reached 50 goals for Blackburn last season that he could go on to break my goalscoring record for the club – and I still stand by that. If he does go on to better my tally of 194 goals then I would have to turn round, hold my hands up and say, 'well done', because not many players hang around at a club that long nowadays.
If Jordan goes on to break my record it'll mean he'll have stayed at the club for a long time.
Here's hoping that's what happens – and here's hoping he keeps banging the goals in.
