Welch: Veterans need better health recordsBy WILSON RING
The Associated Press | July 23,2013
Stefan Hard / Staff Photo Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt., center, announces Monday the introduction of a bill in Congress that would mandate swift implementation of veterans' medical records exchange between the Department of Defense and the Veterans Administration. Welch, speaking at VFW Post 792 in Montpelier, is flanked by Richard Reed of the State of Vermont Office of Veterans Affairs, left, and Bob Nicodemus of the Department of Veterans Affairs.MONTPELIER U.S. Rep. Peter Welch said Monday he is co-sponsoring a bill that would require the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Defense Department to find a better way to share information so veterans can have better access to their military health records.
Delays in accessing the records can cause delays in getting VA benefits, said Welch, a Vermont Democrat.
This bill would put into legislation what the Department of Defense and Department of Veterans Affairs have agreed to do and have been trying to do for 15 years, Welch said. And that is, make a seamless, one-stop-shopping medical record for all of our veterans.
He announced his support for the 21st Century Health Care for Heroes Act at a Montpelier news conference.
Under the current system, active duty military personnel get a medical record, Welch said. When they leave the service, the Veterans Administration has a difficult time getting the records needed to provide vets their benefits.
The notion that you dont have a seamless medical record is really a head scratcher for people across this country, Welch said.
He said the Health Care for Heroes Act has dozens of sponsors from both political parties.
The main sponsor is U.S. Rep. Chris Gibson, R-N.Y., a 24-year military veteran.
In a letter to House colleagues seeking support for the legislation, Gibson said the Defense Department and VA had been working since 1998 to exchange patient health information electronically. But in February the two departments announced they would focus on integrating their existing systems by next year. He said legislation is needed to require the two groups to achieve that goal.
I have seen far too often veterans in my district facing unacceptable wait times for their VA claims, Gibson said in a statement Monday. We have been promised an integrated system for far too long, and this legislation supported by a bipartisan group of members, including other veterans and doctors is commonsense.
Enabling the two departments to work together will lead to doctors and patients being able to access the information anytime and from anywhere, acting Undersecretary of Defense Jessica Wright and Assistant Secretary of Defense Jonathan Woodson said in a joint statement to two House committees this month.
Our service members, veterans, retirees, and eligible family members deserve nothing less than the best possible care and service our two departments can provide. Successfully achieving the goals articulated by Congress and the president is fundamental to delivering on our promise to them and we are fully committed to doing so, they said.
Welch was joined Monday by advocates for Vermont veterans. Richard Reed, director of the Vermont office of Veterans Affairs, said his office had seen a number of cases of veterans discharged in the last decade having their benefits delayed because of problems in getting access to records.
Reed said claims stemming from combat wounds are rarely delayed because theyre obvious.
Whats more common is the soldier has injured their knees. In Afghanistan the soil is awful, its rocky theyre carrying heavy weights on their backs, they wear their knees out, they hurt their backs, Reed said. Hidden injuries are much harder to adjudicate without those records.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Lawmakers complained to the states top health care reform official Thursday they...

Four people have been arrested and several bogs of tobacco, cell phones, phone chargers and other suspected contraband were seized after Rankin County Sheriff's Deputies apparently foiled a plan to toss the items over a fence at the Central Mississippi Correctional Facility Wednesday night.
A citizen's call to the Sheriff's Office around 10:30 p.m. sent deputies to the 3700 block of Mississippi 468, near the prison in Pearl, where the four were stopped. The caller had reported seeing two males getting out a vehicle and carrying several bags.
Twenty-three year old Nikita Davis, 19-year-old Antonio Conner, 18-year-old Jeremy Nelson and 22-year-old Yakeyla Rogers are in the Rankin County Jail, charged with conspiracy to introduce contraband into a correctional facility. They had bond hearings Friday morning, and are scheduled for preliminary hearing Tuesday.
Davis is currently under the supervision of the Mississippi Department of Corrections in Clarke County for non-residential burglary. Convicted on Nov. 6, 2013, he was sentenced to four years' probation.
"For months now, we have been dealing with individuals throwing items over the fence at CMCF as well as at other prisons," Epps said. "There have been several arrests aside from these."
MDOC is installing about a mile of netting around CMCF at a cost of more than $200,000 to prevent items from being thrown over the fence.
The items seized Wednesday night include: Ten 16-ounce bags of tobacco, six 12-ounce bags of tobacco, 13 cell phones with phone chargers, three packs of Tops rolling paper, a wave cap, four Bic lighters, 1 Gerber tool knife, two screwdrivers, one set of dice, three 1.5 liter plastic bottles containing a clear liquid substance, plastic sandwich bags and 2.95 ounces of a green leafy substance.
The intended recipient of the items is under investigation, and once determined, the appropriate charges will be filed, MDOC investigators said.
Introduction of contraband into a correctional facility is punishable by three to 15 years in prison, a maximum $25,000 fine, or both. Conspiracy to introduce contraband carries up to a $5,000 fine, five years imprisonment, or both.

Afghan Commanders: Bin Laden Is Heading to Pakistan
Tribal fighters had taken the last Al-Qaeda positions in eastern Afghanistan, but their leader, Osama bin Laden, still eluded the US dragnet, anti-Taliban commanders said Sunday. "He has not yet been captured," declared Hazrat Ali, commander of Afghan forces advancing cave by cave against Al-Qaeda fighters burrowed into the Tora Bora mountain range.
Haji Zaman, top military commander in the eastern Jalalabad region, said: "This is the last day for al Qaeda in Afghanistan." "Osama bin Laden is not here," he stated, adding his men would "search the mountains meter by meter" for survivors of his network.
Hazrat Ali and Mohammed Haji Zaman think the fighters, and possibly Osama bin Laden himself, are heading over the mountains into Pakistan. Thousands of Pakistani troops have taken up positions along the Afghan-Pakistani border to prevent escape attempts by al Qaeda members. (Albawaba.com)

The training for these action movies, have you picked up a lot of tricks for your own training?
In the first Thor, I did your basic superset training with weights and then I would jump rope in-between sets to spike my heart rate. There's something to be said for just training old school. There's a reason people still do it—because it works. Now, because I have that knowledge, I've experimented with Pilates, swimming, a little bit of yoga to make sure I'm flexible… In the first movie I was 20 pounds heavier. I needed to lose a little bit of weight to fit into all the costumes. I was pretty new to fitness. Even though I wrestled in high school, there was a good block of years in my 20s where I just sat around and didn't do shit.
Where did you wrestle?
Grapevine, TX. It started out as a bet, but I stuck with it after I got the school board to approve it. I found out that a bunch of other schools in Texas had female wrestlers. And in other states it was big. So I thought it would be a cool way to learn self-defense. … There's a discipline it teaches you and it builds your confidence. That's why I think school sports are so important.
Did you wrestle only girls, or guys, too?
In the beginning I trained with the guys. We couldn't really do hands-on training because it was frowned upon at my school. I thought that was bullshit. Girls are playing football; they're not going to wait around for a whole female football team to show up. If they want to do something, let them do it. If a guy wants to join the dance team, then so be it. But I did wrestle some boys. It was frustrating because I would often have to wrestle up to someone 20 pounds heavier, or have someone wrestle up to me because I wrestled at 128 pounds and I was often forfeited against because there aren't many people at that weight… I got a scholarship offer to Iowa State, but I wound up going off to become an actress instead.
Have you maintained the weight loss from the first Thor?
I think I'm kind of dense, muscle-wise. Because it didn't change my size a whole lot. I was 150 pounds at 5'9", and for me that's really out of shape. As soon as I started doing stunt training, it started to come off. I didn't change much with my diet. I wasn't sitting around eating Oreos, but I didn't deprive myself of stuff. I was filming for eight hours a day and training for two; I couldn't keep the weight on. In the middle of the film, the director, Kenneth Branagh, came to me and said, "You've got to stop working out because you're getting too thin." My weight was fluctuating every week depending on water.
What would be your body-type preference in a guy? Schwarzenegger-sized? Thor-sized? Fitness-model sized?
You know, I like a man who's taller than I am. I'm 5'9" so in heels I can be quite a giant. Mainly it's for them because I find that men who are shorter than me get a complex because I'm quite confident in myself as well. I do want someone who looks after their health because it's important, not so much aesthetically, but for your heart and well-being. I want them to be around for a long time. I'd say smaller than Arnold and Chris, muscle-wise, because that's a hell of a lot of meat. Somebody that's healthy for their body shape. That's a wide range of people, I know.
What is the all-time dumbest thing a guy ever did to get your attention?
I had a guy spill a drink on me once. That was a real dick move, because if a girl's going to go out and get dressed up—and I usually just wear ripped up jeans and stuff—but that particularly evening I said, "I can be a little girly tonight," so I dressed up. So the guy spilled his drink on me and offered to pay for my dry cleaning. I guess he was thinking, "Oh, that way I can get her number and keep in contact with her." I was like, "You're a twat. I've got it. No problem." He was so obvious. He totally chucked his drink on me. He's lucky I didn't punch him.
What superhero characteristics are you looking for in a man?
I love humor, and I love the funny superheroes. Also, trying to do the right thing—that sort of moral compass in a superhero, standing up for the underdog. That's probably the biggest thing.
Anything else you want to share with the readers?
People always ask me, "What kind of inexpensive, portable thing can I use to take anywhere to work out with?" and I say the TRX is probably the best bet. I don't have any kind of endorsement deal with them, but I've been using it a lot and it really helped me recover from injury. You can take it anywhere and just throw it on a tree branch. I get asked so much, and that's the best thing. Get a TRX if you can.

Previous to my discovery of the wonder that is Public Radio I had the misfortune of thinking KSL was my only choice for news. KSL runs the Sean Hannity show and oh the months I listened to that idiot, thinking his skewed and dishonest version of the daily news was the only option I had. If I ever hear another one of his listeners call him a "Great American"... *shudder*
But life is better now.
On to the real reason I'm making this post. Back in mid-September Doug Fabrizio ran a piece called Nuture Shock about misconceptions about parenthood and discipline, lying, etc. During one of the bumpers he had this awesome synthpop sounding piece of music. Being the huge slave I am to synthpop I HAD to find out what he used.
I hopped over to the KUER website and looked for a forum discussing the Radio West pieces but didn't find any. I found a contact us link and fired off an e-mail listing the name of the piece and the exact time stamp it started, hoping that would help whomever received my random e-mail. A month passed and I figured they were probably too busy actually running a radio show to respond to a silly question like mine.
Well this afternoon Elaine Clark, senior producer for Radio West e-mails me back apologizing that it took so long to respond. She even went as far to check on the site they pulled it from, the audio section of Newgrounds (which I didn't even know existed, I thought it was all games) and found it wasn't there anymore. She gave me the name of the artists and the title of the song and I was quickly able to find their homepage and the song.
Thank you Elaine, for going above and beyond for a listener. I love public radio.
Here's You Make Me by Blarsa.

Beach Themed Placecard Holder Style 25029NA
This item is available online only. *
Thinking of a beach wedding then consider this whimsical little keepsake, which does double duty both as a placecard holder and fun photo frame. The gently crashing surf is mirrored by the curved, sloping design of the 3.5" x 2.75" poly resin frame, which also features realistically colored starfish and seashells. The soft felt on the back is against a delightfully authentic, sandy finish on the front that just begs to be touched. Catch the wave!

Your wrong..it clearly has a mini sim slot on the side, if it was the "new verizon iphone" wouldnt it use cdma or whatever?? Verizon doesnt use sim cards....nice journalism though...
Wow makes sense little death grip improvements, but just like 3G and 3GS they'll probably increase the RAM of the 5th generation iPhone, but keep the same look. I wish they would make iPhone 5h generation slimmer Apple should look up Google at some prototypes people have on there.
So does that mean that if it's a legit part of the iPhone5, the video chat is going to be gone? Since the camera hole is missing!
Regardless, in smartphones you'll always have complaints on battery drainage. Slimmer iPhone i would love to see and own one especially some of the proto's I saw on Google, if it has battery life of 3GS or 4G i'd be fine with that.
And the SIM slot looks the same size to me ...
who cares. we'll all get the iphone 5 when it comes out regardless lol. actually i'll wait to get one until the JB comes out for it so I don't have to wait a painful 3 months of apple jail time lol.
I hope verizon does get the iphone so I can finally make a freakin phone call on at&t's pathetic excuse for network coverage. who knows maybe i'll actually have service at my own house for once too! that would be amazing!
I would vote almost certainly the CDMA version of the iPhone 4. Too early for a production version of the next gen iPhone IMO.
I bet these steel bands are the prototypes for the current iPhone we have now. Seems daft that given the public outcry about the signal issue, apple would stick to a design that looks like it will probably suffer from again!
I hope they keep a similar design to now but get rid off those horrible eyesore black antenna strips, man. I think the overall design is beautiful APART from those strips.
I don't even see a difference between this and the iPhone 4
I think they have resolved the signal issue since they are not giving away free cases and i just got an iphone 4 for christmas and have noticed no problems with signal in fact its actually better than my old iphone 3g's signal but these are probably minor improvments to make sure that the "antennagate" problem wont happen with early models of this iphone either. I think the next iphone might have a better facetime cam, more ram (if it really necessary?), maybe some graphics improvements, 4G support, and iOS 5 will take care of the rest.
I agree. I'm thinking 1 gig of ram as opposed to the 512 MB that's in the iPhone 4 plus a few other tweaks.
Maybe this will simply be a REVISION of the iPhone 4 so people that are too lazy to get a case (or dont want to spend money on a case) will stop complaining about the antenna issue? The frame looks extremely similar, except for the metal band that runs around the phone. Did anyone ever think that THAT could be a possibility?!

As well, he represents that our future is changing before our eyes; in other words, this is a time of transformation traversing new spheres of understanding, expecting the unexpected, balancing everyday reality with spiritual purpose.
I too have felt the healing energy through your hands, but it appears (given both of Sean's experiences with it), that it is definitely pulsating much stronger. In "light"
of that, you may be interested in checking out Renaissance's post under Divination entitled "The Power of the Human Mind" and view the youtube clip about DJ. If indeed, as Cher suggested, your energy work/path is coming through your hands, then learning to balance it for the situation is important.
I also can't help but smile in speculating that your parallel dimensional lives are merging. I am, of course, referring to Miya in your book, and the work she was doing in The Lobe! I just feel this is all part of the inner ascension process of 2012 and it is so exciting to me! So, you go girl.
Am so pleased Sean's surgery was so successful, that Carroll is doing well, and ever appreciative of all our friends here who have been continuously supporting us in their energy work and prayers. Thank you all.
Love .Peg
Yes, yes and yes to all that you have suggested. So much to absorb at this time and so much to move forward in. Lovely, lovely, lovely. So grateful for all and to all who are participating in mine and Sean's lives. So feel the love from you all and so send it back to all of you a hundred fold.

The biggest post-election policy shift we've seen so far, from the Associated Press:
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida Gov. Rick Scott, one of the most vocal critics of the federal health care overhaul, is dropping his staunch opposition to the law.
Scott said in an interview Tuesday that he now wants to negotiate with the federal government. He said it's time for Republicans to offer solutions to help families after they lost their bid to defeat President Barack Obama.
"The election is over and President Obama won," Scott said. "I'm responsible for the families of Florida … If I can get to yes, I want to get to yes."
Scott had previously stated that he would not go along with any parts of the health care overhaul that the state controls.
States have until Friday to notify federal authorities whether they plan to set up health insurance exchanges, a marketplace where individuals and smalls businesses can shop for the most affordable coverage and where many will get help from the government to pay their premiums.
Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal is expected to reject state participation.
Meanwhile, two experts are quoted today as saying they doubt the federal government will be able to meet the October deadline for the establishment of health care exchanges at the core of the Affordable Health Care Act.
Over at the Gainesville Times, Jeff Gill spoke with UGA health policy expert Phaedra Corso, who said:
"My guess is that one of the things (Congress) is going to have to do is to extend that deadline on when those exchanges need to be operational, either June 2014 … or maybe 2015."
Corso added, "So here's the domino (effect): If the exchanges aren't in place, the individual mandate won't be in place."
And from today's Washington Post:
With a growing number of state leaders saying they will leave it to the federal government to handle a crucial element of President Obama's health-care law, even supporters of the statute are wondering if the administration is up to the job….
Joel Ario, who until a year ago was the federal official overseeing development of the exchanges, said that while he is optimistic, he isn't certain that the federal government will be ready by October.
"Anybody who tells you for sure . . . is ill-informed, because this is still a work in progress," said Ario, who is now a health-care consultant.
Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey is giving early warning to those in the wake of Hurricane Sandy that they're likely to see higher property taxes to pay for reconstruction. From NBC 4 in New York:
"It's got to be paid for," Christie said at a post-storm briefing Tuesday. "No one's ever happy with higher taxes. But the fact is, what annoys people more than anything else is waste. As long as they know that their money's being spent in a way that's helping bring the town back to life, I think people will understand."
James Earl Carter IV is at it yet again. The man who helped bring Mitt Romney's "47 percent" video to light has unearthed a 30-year-old recording of an interview with legendary political strategist Lee Atwater, whose bare-knuckled but cagey tactics helped win the South for Republicans.
Read the entire account – and listen to the entire reclaimed audio — here at The Nation. But this is the most inflammatory portion from Atwater, as he explained how messaging to white Southerners shifted to coded "abstractions." Said Atwater:
"You start out in 1954 by saying, 'N—–, n—–, n—–.' By 1968 you can't say 'n—–'—that hurts you, backfires. So you say stuff like, uh, forced busing, states' rights, and all that stuff, and you're getting so abstract. Now, you're talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you're talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is, blacks get hurt worse than whites.… 'We want to cut this,' is much more abstract than even the busing thing, uh, and a hell of a lot more abstract than 'N—-, n——.'"
The above quote was part of an interview of Atwater by political scientist Alexander P. Lamis, who used it without attribution in his book, "The Two-Party South."
After Atwater's early death in 1991, Lamis disclosed the identity of the man behind the quote.
Maybe you missed it, but my AJC colleague Katie Leslie had a conversation Tuesday with Danny Dukes, the Canton-area consultant who lost a Republican primary race for chairman of the Cherokee County Board of Education in July.
Dukes admitted being one of those thousands of people who signed a petition on a White House website, advocating Georgia's secession from the Union. It was a protest rather than a policy position, he said:
"It's like the Boston Tea Party sending a message saying, 'We're fed up with the way things are.' We want progress and direction and leadership and don't agree with the route things are taking," he said.
"The racial issue has been checked at the doorstep for a long time," he said. "In my mind, it's not an issue."
But even in Cherokee County, that's the kind of protest that could circumscribe one's political ambitions.

Gov Scott is a realist. Gov Deal"s head is in the sand. How could the state health exchange NOT help people get more affordable, better detailed, health insurance from PRIVATE companies?
To secessionists: the state does not want to secede from the Union. If you don't like it, leave. Just remember Canada has the dreaded "socialist" healthcare! I hear Somalia is beautiful this time of year! Grow up!

This language is reported to be the response of Justice Scalia in a letter to a professor who espoused the right of secession. The Justice writes:
"I am afraid I cannot be of much help with your problem, principally because I cannot imagine that such a question could ever reach the Supreme Court. To begin with, the answer is clear. If there was any constitutional issue resolved by the Civil War, it is that there is no right to secede. (Hence, in the Pledge of Allegiance, "one Nation, indivisible.") Secondly, I find it difficult to envision who the parties to this lawsuit might be. Is the State suing the United States for a declaratory judgment? But the United States cannot be sued without its consent, and it has not consented to this sort of suit."

Thank you Jimmy IV The Party of NO has a lot to pray about.

A secessionist petition would be like the colonies "asking" for permission from Great Britiain to become their own country. It didn't work then, and won't work now.

Florida Gov. Rick Scott:
"He said it's time for Republicans to offer solutions to help families after they lost their bid to defeat President Barack Obama."
Is he saying it took the election of Obama for Republicans to offer solutions for families?
I guess Romney's 47% remark must be indicative of the overall Republican philosophy.

You give my fellow Cherokee Countians too much credit. This is the home of Chip Rogers, the leading U.N. conspiracy theorist under the gold dome. This is the home to a Tea Party founder who claims the GOP had a poor national showing because it was too moderate. Don't be surprised if the north Georgia exurban and mountain counties move to secede from Georgia for being too liberal.

Peaceful secession will not be granted any state, but IF it were . . .
I would use the words uttered by Davy Crockett after being defeated in his reelection bid to Congress in 1835 by pro-Jackson forces, "You can go to hell. I'm going to Texas."

I liked the petition I saw yesterday that called for anyone who signed a petition for their state to secede to be deported…

I am very happy for the people of Florida.
Now, why cannot our idiot republican Governor do the same? Why are the Georgia politicans (republicans) so hard-headed and dead set to make the State of Georgia miserable?
No doctor in their right mind would even think of living in Georgia! Our State is making it so that doctors cannot get paid for their services (or at least making it very difficult to get paid). If you think we already have a doctor shortage in Georgia now – just wait!
The idiots in Georgia continue to elect idiot republican politicans that are diving our State, not into a ditch, but into a black hole from which there is no return. This doesn't just include healthcare, but also education and every other aspect.
I think that the US would actually be smart to pay money for Georgia to leave the union!

An appropriate quote:
"Do not blame Caesar, blame the people of Rome who have so enthusiastically acclaimed and adored him and rejoiced in their loss of freedom and danced in his path and gave him triumphal processions…Blame the people who hail him when he speaks in the Forum of the 'new, wonderful good society' which shall now be Rome, interpreted to mean 'more money, more ease, more security, more living fatly at the expense of the industrious.'"
~Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 B.C.)

Obamacare was never supposed to be the end all. It was supposed to be tweeked. Only problem was the repubs knew it was a good idea but didn't want Obama to get the credit. Just tweek the thing until common ground is met and keep things going. We have bigger fish to fry.

Daddy Deal just doesn't love us. You would NEVER see him holding hands with our President to save us from drowning like Daddy Christie did in N.J. Dang…. when the currently-installed GOP Governor of Florida cares more about the common folk in that mosquito- and fungus-infested intellectual swamp than our Governor does…. just DANG.
Save the money you were going to spend buying Daddy a new tie for Christmas. It doesn't matter how you voted; he just does not love us, and he just never will.

People wake up. If you don't think this obamacare isn't going to cost us more, you're nuts. If you don't believe me, just wait, watch your paycheck and watch your take home pay decrease. Watch how your "choices" decrease. And then watch how employers start laying people off. Just wait and watch.

Where in the heck did you get the idea that you had choices? Under Obamacare, you only are allowed to go into the exchange if your employer did not offer a plan. If your employer offers a plan then you MUST accept it or pay a penalty.
November 14th, 2012
11:58 am
Let's face it, we will be better off with the a federally designed health care exchange system.
Governor Deal will one day account to his maker for all the lives that have and will be lost because he played politics to the bitter end.
November 14th, 2012
12:03 pm
I see you libs on this blog again do not have a clue at what is going to happen.
If the state does not set up and run an exchange then the Federal government will set up one and run it for the state. The good for the state is that we do not have the cost of building and maintaining this website.
This is part is not that big of a deal for the state. The bigger deal is that the state has the option (according to the decision of the SCOTUS) of expanding Medicaid. If we (and other states) do not expand this entitlement (which is already covering 20% of our population) then Obamacare does not have the financial means to cover everyone and it falls apart and must be taken back before the Congress for massive amounts of new money.

@td -
You are just too funny and too sad. Your facts are twisted and your logic is wrong. I guess you know more than the Republican Governor of Florida who now requests "obamacare" for his State?
November 14th, 2012
12:12 pm
"Actually CC, it's a minority of people – as was demonstrated most forcefully last week."
"Obviously the majority of Americans now back the President and his policys."
Being in the majority doesn't make you right. Doubt me? If you could ask the victim of a lynch mob whether the majority was correct in their thinking, I don't believe the answer you would get would be in the affirmative.
November 14th, 2012
12:14 pm
You may have a point. If Georgia does not get involved, then at least the idiot republican politicans cannot corrupt it and find ways to skim money off of it to line their pockets!
November 14th, 2012
12:16 pm
You always even twist your own words – just like a true conservative republican! YOU said that most poeple think that Obama and his supporters are the whiners. I pointed out that those people (the Obama supporters) are in the majority as demonstrated by the election. So, you are wrong.
So, rather than admitting that you are wrong, you now say something about "being in the majority doesn't make you right."
LOL!!!! You are just too funny.

I will say it again …We as citizens need to send a message to our Governor crooked DEAL (term loosely used).
Enough hiring unqualified family and cronies…And closed locked door pocket lining.
Health care will be like EDUCATION and the Stadium…sold to the lobbyist with the
Biggest roll of payola.
In the long run The Federal Government will do a better job of running health care than shady deal and his crony run ways..

veterans, teachers, police, mothers, everyone, talk to Mayor Reed, find out how to set up accounts , run for every race, school board, commisioner, gov. senators/rep. etc
educate your voters . Every democrat vote in every election like Michelle Obama told us.
You have conservative talk radio, Fox, crossroads /Karl Rove, American Prosperity doing research so it is better if you do not have anything they can use against you.
There is a difference between Republicans and democrats.
Republicans are for rich, check their laws/votes.
Scott is also talking about review of voter suppression, He and Repub. legislature were cause of it Google.
He is hoping that Florida voters will have short memory, he runs for re-election soon.
In case, he is defeated, he would want to set up healthcare so he can benefit. Remember medicare fraud/scott/google

Laughable, cc td and voter with their dire predictions for the future of healthcare. I think their credibility as seers and prophets went down in flames Tuesday November 6, along with their rosy predictions of a romney landslide Even more risible is cc's attempt at playing resident historian, comparing secessionists to the Adamses, Patrick Henry, Jefferson, et al. The more proper analogy is not to compare the tea baggers and secessionists to these patriots, but to a screaming two year old who has just been told "no, you can't get that shiny new toy," who thinks that if they can scream loud enough and long enough, they will get it.
I would love to see Texas secede, then watch as the residents of Ok, La, NM, et all clamor forhelp in stemming the tide of illegal aliens, illegal aliens named bush, perry, jones, smith etc who are fleeing from the 'nation' that is about to be annexed to Mexico. I'm sure Mexico can claim 'maifest destiny" just as well as the USA, and they will likely decide they would like their Alamo back, if you please.
And being a good conservative, pox news loyalists, cc will of course freely take quotes out of context. To wit; 'new, wonderful good society' which shall now be Rome, interpreted to mean 'more money, more ease, more security, more living fatly at the expense of the industrious.'"
Cicero was referring to the Roman aristocracy living off the sweat and toil of common people, who would be forced to work their entire lives while the elite accrued the wealth from their labors, forcing them to work for wages that barely kept them alive, with no hope of upward mobility, healthcare, or a dignified old age, in short, Cicero was describing a republican/romney/ryan vision for America.

When states begin implementing expanded Medicaid and see health care costs balancing out because the uninsured are getting care, GA will look ignorant and it'll be too late. We're looking at a $4B in exchange for $35+B gift horse in the mouth. I guess those working poor won't need insurance.
What can harm GA by setting up an exchange? I just don't see it.

You people who want to secede are the minority like you were as Tea Party/right wingers/red necks, you need to buy yourself a ticket to Somalia, it is about only country without government.

Drug test this thief! Floridiots elected a grifter whose company paid the biggest fraud settlement ever for Medicaid fraud, and he pushed for drug testing everyone but Florida elected politicos, and screwed up the Florida election, big time. (He announced that he and his election lackey will investigate how they did that…)
Still, he's a grifter politician and he wants to stay in charge of the checkbooks, so he's blowing in the wind…blowing in favor of RomneyObamacare, after all.
Anything less, and he won't be re-elected. Still waiting for the perp walk for this grifter.

The Best thing for the good citizens of the State of Georgia is for Governor Deal and his cronies to keep their hands off Obama Care. I rather take my chances with the Feds oversight instead of one of the least citizen and consumer friendly states in this great Union, messing with my healthcare.
Somebody tell John McCain, Lindsey and Rudy that their team lost to President Obama for the second consecutive time in a row. Romesia has sat in again; Romney spends a billion dollars trying to buy the election, however he was out maneuvered by the power of the incumbency. His face saving tactics, should be reviewed by a NY food critic. He is cooking with bad grease.
Sarah Palin please help these repulicouldn'ts. Romney lost you are free to come back on the stage, please bring you own chair because the People of the United States allowed The President to keep the big one.
How about a petition for a 3rd term.

Resistance to reality from republican Governors around the country belies their allegiance to insurance companies.
Movement to full implementation of the Affordable Care Act will demonstrate the obvious need for nationwide, Federally Chartered healthcare coverage (at least until we all realize that Centralized, Single Payer Federal Health insurance financed through payroll deductions is the sane answer).
Governors who insist on fighting the tide (and costing their Citizens in the process) are only protecting the State Chartered insurance system which regularly lauds them with substantial campaign contributions. There is power in owning authority over insurance coverage and maintaining that power rather than attending to the need of the Citizens is what Governor deal has decided to do.
November 15th, 2012

Since Governor Deal wants the federal government to administer Georgia's health exchanges let's hope the federal government subtracts any payments it has to make from Georgia's share of federal dollars being received.
Perhaps Governor Deal would like the federal government to take over all state government responsibilities, as they did just after the War Between the States. Personal responsibility is not a GOP standard in Georgia.

"I wanted a full-bleed photo card to use as a thank you note and this was great. Instead of my kid's name, I was able to personalize the second line with 9 words. Tiny Prints makes it so easy to make it your own."
"I think this card fit exactly what I wanted. Nothing to flashy, but perfect to express our thanks to our family and friends for celebrating with us. Love the idea of it!"
"I absolutely love these cards--my very favorite thank you cards to use. The high paper quality, contemporary design, and accent color (I chose orange), along with my name (only placed my first name after the words "thank you" on the card) make it special. I love the self-addressed envelopes that match it (I think it's such a nice touch to have personalized envelopes as well). I ordered both the cards and envelopes a second time, and will continue to order more as I run out. Great value!"
"Overall I am happy with this card. I was happy to be able to customize it- I wanted to make more generalized cards that I could send out- not just thank you cards so I asked the designer in the live chat. I was able to change the wording on the card as well as the colors. The design turned out perfect. I wish the print quality of my picture was better- it doesn't list anywhere that the picture needed to be a certain resolution size or pixel."
"I used this card as a Thank you after my father passed away. I used a photo of him waving and smiling and wrote Thanks for your expression of Sympathy. I cannot tell you how many comments I got from the people I sent this thank you note to. They have never recieved this type of thank you from the passing of a loved one. Many said they would be saving this card because the photo was so great. It is hard to find a thank you sympathy card, and this was perfect. It was elegant and tasteful with the black boarder. Thank you for helping me find a product that I could use during the passing of a loved one."

Heart Center: Aortic Balloon Angioplasty
Coarctation of the aorta is a narrowing of the aorta, the blood vessel that carries blood to the body. It usually involves an isolated area of the aorta and occurs in five to 8 percent of all patients with congenital heart disease, or 0.04 percent of the general population. The severity is determined by the pressure difference, or gradient, measured between the aorta above and below the narrowing. The greater the pressure difference, the more severe the coarctation. If the pressure difference is greater than 20mmHg, if the patient has congestive heart failure, or if the patient has high blood pressure, intervention is necessary.
In the past, surgeons were asked to repair this defect by cutting out the narrow segment and sewing the aorta back together. Today a non-surgical technique called aortic balloon angioplasty can be used to correct the coarctation. During this procedure, a catheter with a balloon on the end is advanced under fluoroscopy (X-ray) across the narrowed area from an artery in the leg. Once the catheter is in place, the balloon is rapidly inflated and deflated to dilate, or open, the narrowed area. This technique can be performed successfully on patients who have, and patients who have not, had prior surgery, but it is most often performed on patients who have developed a recurrence of the coarctation. After the procedure, the patient is admitted to the hospital for overnight observation and released the next morning.
Results from a balloon angioplasty of a coarctation vary with age, severity of high blood pressure before the procedure, and type of coarctation (recurrent vs. coarctation that has never been repaired, or native). In general, the immediate success rate for native coarctations of all age groups is 81-91%, and the success rate for recurrent coarctations is 75-82 percent. Recurrences of the coarctation can occur after the angioplasty, but there is no significant difference in patients older than 1 year of age as compared to surgery. The risk for death is 1 percent or less with angioplasty and is usually related to other associated cardiac lesions, not the procedure itself.
A few complications can occur with this procedure: femoral artery damage, aortic aneurysm (bulging in a weak spot), bleeding, increased X-ray exposure time, and death. To combat these complications, the balloon size is carefully matched to the size of the aorta above and below the narrowing, and heparin, a blood thinner, is given to prevent blood clot formation. Blood is ordered and is available for immediate use in case of bleeding. A cardiac surgeon is available if a significant complication occurs during the procedure.

"I think that people are responding to someone standing up and saying this is what we want to do and let's not be afraid to go for it,'' Pollard said. "I think Iowa State has a very conservative, modest background. We never pound our chest and say `Let's do it.' It's OK to set a goal. You can't do it if you don't say what you want to do. You should be proud of it.''

Websites That Offer Free (or Dirt Cheap) Yoga Classes
Written on January 10, 2012 at 7:00 am , by fitsugar
Yoga may be blissful, but it isn't cheap! Depending on where you live, classes can run you an average of $15 to $20 a pop. Dropping $50 or more for yoga classes each week isn't an option for everyone, but we can all benefit from a regular practice. The internet is bursting with free full-length classes or shortened yoga routines. If you're willing to pay a little, you'll be able to view a greater variety of videos. Here are some sites to check out.
- Yoga Today: This site offers one free class each week, and if you're itching for more, download other classes for $3.99 each. If you're really into it, pay $89.95 for a yearly membership, which includes unlimited classes. Store them on your computer and follow along anywhere you happen to be.
- Yoga Journal: For beginners and advanced yogis, these videos, ranging in length from five to 35 minutes, are the high quality you'd expect from Yoga Journal. Some of my faves include hip opening sequence Bird by Bird and Heart Wide Open full of chest openers.
- My Yoga Online: These videos may not be free, but they're dirt cheap. Pay $9.95 per month or $69.95 for a year, for unlimited access to the entire library. The site also offers popular yoga DVDs such as Body by Bethany and Transform Yourself With Jivamukti. Another plus, you can sample a clip before you buy.
- My Free Yoga: Site members upload yoga videos, so the classes may not be the most cutting-edge, but they won't cost you a dime.
- Gaiam TV: Sign up for a free 10-day trial to stream actual yoga DVDs like Seane Corn's Vinyasa Flow Yoga or Rodney Yee's Advanced Arms directly to your computer, phone (there's a free Gaiam TV app), or iPad. If you like the service, it costs $9.95 a month.
