As a member of the Norse swim team from 1989 to 1993 David Poetker set school records in the 500-yard freestyle, the 1,000-yard freestyle and the 1,650-yard freestyle. He was honored as a member Luther's Athletic Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility 10 years after graduation… But it is Dr. Poetker's notable work in medical science since graduating with majors in biology and Spanish that has placed him in the spotlight.
After Luther, David earned a master's degree in biology from Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa. There he was involved in teaching and doing research at the Human Gene Therapy Research Institute. David assisted in the establishment of an FDA-approved facility for the production of materials for human gene therapy clinical trials and helped establish a stem cell laboratory for autologous bone marrow transplants.
David went on to earn a medical doctorate from the University of Iowa College of Medicine in 2001. At Iowa, he was a member of the Smile Program, organizing and funding trips to third world countries to perform surgeries on children with cleft palates. David also helped organized medical outreach programs in the local community as a Student Ambassador.
Following medical school, David completed a residency in Otolaryngology or Ear, Nose, and Throat at the Medical College of Wisconsin, in Milwaukee. While in residency, David was awarded an American Academy of Otolaryngology research grant to conduct research on a vaccine for Papillomavirus, a virus often associated with certain cancers. In 2004, David received another research grant to study the safety of "bionic ears", known as cochlear implants. David was honored with Luther's very first Young Alumni Award in 2004.
David completed a fellowship in rhinology and sinus surgery at Oregon Health and Sciences University, and rejoined the staff at The Medical College of Wisconsin in 2007. He is the director of the otolaryngology student clerkships and the director of the otolaryngology residency program. He was named the Outstanding Medical Student Educator in 2008, and he continues to share his knowledge with medical students and resident physicians, in the clinics, the operating rooms, and the classrooms.
David and his wife Rebecca live in Milwaukee with their two daughters, Barrett, age 15, and Aidan, age 5.

You might not know that there are several versions of DiSC out there. I prefer the one that gives you more business-focused reports. So you can get an Everything DiSC Workplace profile or an Everything DiSC Work of Leaders profile. Choosing to run those profiles for a team and getting a group report and comparison reports would address your concern, Scott.

The Presbyterian moderator has said people will thank him for "speaking the truth" after he branded bonfires a health hazard and a barrier to a more inclusive society.
In a speech at the University of Ulster on Thursday night, Dr Frank Sellar said: "They are not bonfires fuelled by inclusiveness, respect and healing, but a means by which we pass on to succeeding generations the sins of our fathers."
During the lecture, entitled 'A City of Hope, Leadership & Compassion,' Dr Sellar added: "Dotted over this city at certain times of year in both communities are Bonfires, which give off the toxic fumes of heat rather than light.
"Given our history and fortress mind-sets, while celebrating and commemorating the past divisively, they are also a danger to the environment, property and human well-being."
Clarifying his remarks on the Nolan radio show on Friday morning, the moderator said it was important his comments were take in context.
"I am not against bonfires," he said.
"But we all know there are different ways of doing things. There is the possibility of inclusiveness and respect and healing.
"I want to pass on to my children a better way, a more positive way, a shared future. I want respectfulness and I want inclusively for the next generation."

Health insurance is one of the most important kinds of insurance for a person to have, as it covers part of his health care costs, from office visits to surgeries. Coverage varies depending on what type of health insurance the person has, and he will either receive reimbursement from his insurance provider after paying for expenses out of pocket, or the healthcare company will bill his provider. The best way to choose a health insurance plan in Coleman Falls, VA is by comparing different options, and Wirefly makes it easy to do that and get a free online quote.
Residents of Coleman Falls, VA can usually get their health insurance through their employers or private insurance. There are less expensive options available than private insurance through Medicare for senior citizens and Medicaid for people below the low-income threshold.
Each type of insurance also has different coverage levels, with the cost rising depending on how extensive the coverage is. Higher cost plans will typically provide full coverage, while inexpensive health insurance could cover just emergency healthcare. To find the right plan, everyone must figure out their own healthcare needs.
Since it is difficult to know exactly what medical costs will be incurred throughout the year, it can be tricky to determine the amount of health coverage you need. Using an indicator to estimate upcoming costs can assist you in making an educated guess regarding future medical expenses. For instance, if you are generally healthy and only visit your physician on an infrequent basis, a low-cost plan may provide sufficient coverage for your situation. Alternatively, if you have been diagnosed with a chronic disease that requires frequent doctor's visits, you may want to consider a higher cost plan that includes a wider range of coverage.
Catastrophic-only insurance offers one of the lowest-priced options for health insurance coverage in Coleman Falls, VA. This is ideal for individuals who rarely visit the doctor or only wish to be covered in the event of a significant emergency. Alternatively, if you travel often or participate in dangerous activities, it may be wise to have a plan that covers visits to the ER or regular visits to a physician.
Plans that offer more coverage usually come with a more costly monthly premium. Essentially, this means that a higher monthly premium will equate to lower health care costs in the event of a claim. For this reason, it is essential to evaluate your health history and lifestyle to determine the most economical option based on your specific needs. Be sure to cover the basics and increase your coverage as needed or as your budget allows.
When individuals shop for health insurance coverage in Coleman Falls, VA, they have many options. Some of the types of plans include PPO, HMO, POS, HSA, HRA, FSA, and a MSA. People need to find the right one that is best for them. These plans each differ in what they will offer. The terms and flexibility will vary. Selecting an insurance plan can seem complex; therefore, it is important that people understand each type of plan, so they will know what to expect from each one.
A Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) is a plan in which people usually have less out-of-pocket expenses, but they will also have fewer choices in the doctor's they can see. Normally, with an HMO, people will have coverage for most preventative medical procedures. One of the best things about HMOs is that people will not be required to pay a deductible. Most of the time, the co-payment will be small. Individuals must choose a physician inside the network with proper authorization from the primary doctor, so sometimes the options are limited. This type of coverage is good for people who prefer lower premiums, and want certain preventative coverages for regular check-ups.
A Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) is a plan that offers a larger network of providers. These doctors are contracted to offer services to members at a lower or discounted price. The insured is not required to choose a primary care doctor, but has the option to see a choice of physicians within the network. Individuals normally have a yearly deductible that they must pay before coverage can begin. Many of the services require a copayment that the insured needs to pay. With this option, there are also limits on how much a person can spend annually. If a person chooses a doctor out of the network, the out-of-pocket expenses will be higher. No referral is needed for a PPO. This type of coverage is good for people who like flexibility and the freedom to choose their doctor and do not mind the higher premiums.
A Point of Service (POS) plan is a combination of an HMO and PPO. The insured will choose a primary care doctor in Coleman Falls, VA from the network of providers. Co-payments are minimal, and no deductible is needed. If a person goes to see a doctor out of the network, the prices are much higher. This is good for individuals who prefer flexibility when choosing doctors and enjoy the balance of more choices as opposed to lower premiums.
In Coleman Falls, VA, there are some unconventional options to health insurance. A Health Savings Account (HSA), a Health Reimbursement Account (HRA), a Health Flexible Spending Arrangement (FSA), and a Medical Savings Account (MSA) are options for health insurance in Coleman Falls, VA. With these choices, individuals will set up a tax-exempt savings account and put money aside to pay for anything that people need for medical care. This can include prescriptions, routine doctor's visits, and surgeries. In some cases, the money can even be used for over the counter medications. This option has lots of flexibility when it comes to how the money is distributed, and any extra funds can be applied to the next year.
The amount of money payable each month for health insurance coverage is known as a premium. Irrespective of whether you use your insurance or not, you will never be reimbursed what you paid as premium. Deductibles are not the same as out of pocket expenses. A deductible refers to the amount of money the insured needs to pay a healthcare provider before the insurer begins paying a claim. On the other hand, out of pocket refers to the amount the insured needs to spend before the insurer pays the entire bill.
Although out of pocket costs and deductibles often start over with every year, the expenses of the previous year usually impact these two payments moving forward. Assume the insured has a deductible of $4,000, spent $2,500 out of pocket in the past year, and keeps the same plan when the insurance renews. In this case, the out of pocket expenses will be reset to zero and the $2,500 spent the past year will not roll over. However, some of the health insurance plans in Coleman Falls, VA are exempted from this rule, allowing the insured to roll over the amount of deductible paid from the previous coverage year to the deductible for the coming year's first quarter.
Also known as coinsurance, co-payment refers to the financial responsibility of the insured for medical services. If the co-payment to see a primary health care provider is $20, then the insured pays $20 every time he/she sees that health care provider. The insurer will then cover the balance if your plan includes the services rendered. However, a co-payment does not apply to a deductible.
The insurer could also give the insured a maximum lifetime benefit, which is the maximum amount the insurer will pay for your health care in total. The insurance provider will not pay any medical claims once the payments already made add up to this maximum.
Employment status also impacts the health insurance plans available to a person. If you are an employee of a large organization, you might get on the company's group health insurance plan, which is much more affordable than personal healthcare. However, participation in group health insurance plans is not required by law.
You can purchase private, individual health insurance in Coleman Falls, VA if you are either unemployed or self-employed. Senior citizens who don't work can receive financial assistance from the government through Medicare. People with low-income can also apply for financial support from the government through Medicaid.
Check with your doctors to find out which of the health insurance plans offered in Coleman Falls, VA is acceptable to them, especially if you intend to keep seeing your current physicians. If your insurance plan changes, make sure you inform your doctor. Also, check with your insurer about any specific question that pertains to your coverage.
Since it's impossible to predict what will happen from one day to the next, having health insurance is definitely a great decision that will benefit both you and your family. While it can sometimes be very difficult to ascertain which health insurance plan is the best, Wirefly can make the search very simple and hassle-free. Just by entering a ZIP code, you will receive a health insurance quote detailing the available plans in Coleman Falls, VA.
When deciding on a plan, make sure not to skimp on your specific health care needs. Though it's certainly possible to save some money if certain coverage types are excluded, it's essential that you don't eliminate coverage types that you'll actually need in the future. While the premiums for insurance plans aren't exactly affordable, the out-of-pocket expenses associated with medical care when not insured can be far higher. By using Wirefly, you can find the best insurance plan for your needs, which can save you a lot of time and money. Just enter your ZIP code for a free quote today.
Wirefly offers great deals on a large selection of smartphones, cell phones, tablets, mobile hotspots, and other wireless devices for the nation's most popular carriers.

Magnum Workshop: Brighton
Oct 30 - Nov 4 2012
Magnum Workshop Brighton
30th October – 4th November 2012
Magnum Photos is delighted to announce the Magnum Workshop Brighton, a unique photography experience held in the infamous seaside town of Brighton, United Kingdom.
As part of the Brighton Photo Biennial 2012, Magnum Photos will host an intensive, practice oriented five-day photography workshop. Three internationally acclaimed photographers, Moises Saman, Mikhael Subotzky and Alessandra Sanguinetti will lead intimate groups of twelve individuals in an intensive program of photographic development. Participants will work in a combination of shooting and presenting their work in a series of tutorials on a daily basis. Tuition will focus on participant approaches to chosen projects, including advice on technical skills, aesthetics and editing process. The workshop will provide photographers with an opportunity to develop their personal vision and the skills required to compete in a hugely competitive marketplace.
Following the 2010 Biennial curated by Martin Parr, which saw over 60,000 visitors, the 2012 edition is curated and produced by Photoworks, the UK's leading visual arts agency for photography. The workshop is hosted by the University of Brighton, Faculty of Arts, Grand Parade, conveniently placed in the centre of Brighton enabling participants to actively engage in festival activities throughout the week.
The Workshop
Magnum's development courses are aimed at photographers who wish to push their personal boundaries and challenge their visual understanding. Participants will spend time alongside their Magnum tutor attending daily reviews, group critiques, mentoring and editing sessions whilst also working on a self- directed practical project. Through this process, candidates will further develop their visual language, photographic identity, practical, technical and conceptual skills and the expertise required to compete in a changing marketplace.
Participants will have the opportunity to create new bodies of work, or develop existing projects within the cultural hub of Brighton and the surrounding area. The workshop will culminate in a projection of participant work at the Sallis Benney Theatre, Brighton on the 4th November, as part of the official festival programme. Through the generous support of Magnum's educational partners Blurb, workshop participants will also have the opportunity to further their editing experience through the production of 8"x10" group Blurb book.
Participants are encouraged to attend optional (but highly recommended) lectures provided by the acclaimed University of Brighton photographic department, exclusively available to Magnum workshop photographers. The presentations, delivered by professors, lecturers and working photographers, will provide further theoretical depth to the course.
Candidates are actively encouraged to participate in the diverse schedule of the festival events. For information about the activities during BPB, visit

South African, b. 1981
Mikhael Subotzky was born in 1981 in Cape Town, South Africa, and is currently based in Johannesburg.

He is concerned with the structures of narrative and representation, as well as the relationship between social storytelling and the formal poetics of image making. Over the past eight years, his work has focused on the inside and outside of South Africa's notorious prisons, the small town of Beaufort West, and Ponte City, a single iconic building in Johannesburg
Subotzky's work has been exhibited widely in major galleries and museums, and his prints are in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, the South African National Gallery, Cape Town, and the Johannesburg Art Gallery. Recent awards and grants include the 2011 Discovery Award at Rencontres de la Photographie Arles, the 2009 Oskar Barnack Award, the 2008 W. Eugene Smith Memorial Grant, and the 2007 KLM Paul Huf Award.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Freshman Justin Wallace's (Palatine, Ill.) career night running the ball against Nichols College on Saturday has earned him New England Football Conference Offensive Player of the Week honors the league announced today. He is the first MIT player to earn Player of the Week honors this season.
Wallace ran for a career-high 190 yards, tied the Institute record for carries in a game with 41, and scored three times to lead MIT to a 23-0 win over Nichols as the Engineers snapped a six-game winless streak. After MIT had picked up an early field goal, Wallace took care of the rest of the scoring for the Engineers. He got things started with a 20-yard scamper in the first quarter and then put the game away for MIT with scoring runs of four and nine yards in the third and fourth quarters respectively.
Wallace has now rushed for 892 yards and seven TDs this season, with his rushing total currently the fifth best in a single season in the MIT record book.

Walls close in on DesJarlais
The news just keeps getting worse for embattled Tennessee GOP Rep. Scott DesJarlais, who is caught up in a messy scandal surrounding his personal life.
Opponents are already beginning to line up for 2014. The congressman was notably missing Saturday from a list of prominent state Republicans supporting Sen. Lamar Alexander's re-election campaign – he was the only member of the Tennessee congressional delegation not asked to be a co-chair for Alexander's bid.
Now, some of the health industry political action committees that have generously supported the former physician's bids for Congress say they won't contribute to his campaign anymore.
From a Chattanooga Times Free Press report:
[A]t least six PACs that gave to DesJarlais' 2012 campaign, including local insurance giants BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee and Unum, said they won't give again in 2014.
"Anytime you support someone, you have an association with them," BlueCross spokesman Roy Vaughn said. "That becomes difficult if their behavior is something that doesn't reflect well on your organization."
Another half-dozen PACs representing health professionals, hospitals, nursing homes and health insurance companies said they haven't decided on DesJarlais. The remaining 15 that donated to the physician-turned-congressman did not respond to a Chattanooga Times Free Press inquiry.
An abortion opponent, DesJarlais managed to win re-election in 2012 despite damaging revelations late in the campaign that he pressured a woman with whom he had an affair to get an abortion.
Not long after Election Day, the release of a transcript from his divorce proceedings compounded his problems: it was revealed that his ex-wife had two abortions and DesJarlais had sexual relationships with two patients and three co-workers while he was chief of staff at Grandview Medical Center.
The congressman, who has denied intentionally misleading voters about his past, has said he won't resign and plans to run again in two years.
But there isn't much of a future for a member who's alienated his base, whose colleagues are keeping him at arm's length, whose contributions are drying up and who has serious primary and general election foes waiting in the wings.

Letter to the House on Budget Process Bills
February 02, 2012
Dear Representative:
On behalf of the more than three million members of the National Education Association, we would like to urge your opposition to two budget process bills scheduled for floor debate this week. We believe these bills – H.R. 3578, the Baseline Reform Act, and H.R. 3582, the Pro-Growth Budgeting Act – are unnecessary and would actually undermine, rather than strengthen, fiscal discipline. Votes associated with these issues may be included in the NEA Legislative Report Card for the 112th Congress.
The Baseline Reform Act unnecessarily politicizes what is otherwise a fairly simple and straightforward method by which changes in spending policy can be accurately measured. The bill would require the Congressional Budget Office and the Office of Management and Budget to assume, in constructing budget "baselines" that project funding levels for future years, that annual appropriations will remain frozen indefinitely, with no adjustment for inflation. This would establish an unrealistic and misleading benchmark against which to measure changes in funding. According to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, removing inflation adjustments from budget projections for discretionary programs would make projections of deficits and debt look more favorable than they really are, by creating an unrealistic assumption that policymakers will cut funding for discretionary programs in real terms every year through a permanent, across-the-board funding freeze, irrespective of the level of inflation.
The Pro-Growth Budgeting Act would require the use of "dynamic scoring," or the consideration of "macroeconomic feedbacks"such as how a change in tax or spending policy would affect the overall economy in scoring estimates. Because estimates of macroeconomic feedbacks are so uncertain, including them in revenue estimates would be nothing more than a budget gimmick resulting in fuzzy math.
Both bills offer unnecessary changes to the budget process, designed to introduce politics and bias into an otherwise fairly straightforward process. We urge you to oppose both bills.

Director, Center for Advocacy

"Free Day" of JU basketball Tuesday
The JU women take the court at 5 followed by the men at 7:15 Tuesday night
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – After an 11-day hiatus for finals, the JU men's basketball team returns to the court Tuesday to host Wofford in the Veterans Memorial Arena at 7:15 p.m.
Admission is free as part of the Sixth annual "Free Night" sponsored by Sea Best Seafood. Fans can also watch the JU women take on Troy at 5 p.m. Parking is free for the doubleheader in Lot Z of the arena complex.
"We are excited to play again," JU head coach Cliff Warren said. "This break has helped us take care of our academics, heal and refocus for the final set of non-conference games. Wofford is a lot like us so they will be a challenge. I know our team will be ready for the task."
The Dolphins hit the court again following a 91-74 loss at South Carolina Dec. 7. The Gamecocks shot 71.9 percent (23-32) from the floor in the first half, including making 6 of 7 three-pointers, to snap a two-game skid.
Freshman Marcellous Bell scored 17 points off the bench to lead the Dolphins offense. Bell is the fifth different newcomer to lead JU in scoring in the last six games.
Freshman Jarvis Haywood added 13 points, while junior Keith McDougald scored 12. Haywood has scored in double-figures in the last five games he has played in to pace the JU offense at 11.1 points a contest. McDougald is second at 10 points a contest.
The Terriers (4-6) are back after their finals break following a 63-56 loss in the SoCon opener at Davidson Dec. 8. Taylor Wagener (14) and Indiana Faithfull (10) each scored double-digits off the bench to lead the Wofford offense.
Karl Cochran paces the Terriers' offense with a 15.6 scoring average. Lee Skinner is second at 11.4 points and first in rebounds with a 6.7 clip.
Wofford and JU have each won a game at home in the all-time series. The Terriers won last year's meeting at home, 63-57, while the Dolphins earned a 97-59 victory in the first contest in Jacksonville in 1982. All three games have occurred on Dec. 18 (1982, 2011, 2012).
