All in the families
Two new police sgts. carry on dads' legacies
Henrico County Division of Police has long been distinguished by a number of husband-wife and sibling relationships among its officers.
But the July 31 promotional ceremony may well have been one-of a kind, with not one but two father-son pairs of officers in attendance. Of the four police officers being promoted to sergeant, half had fathers that have served as Henrico police supervisors.
Held at the Henrico County Training Center, the ceremony marked Jeffrey S. Quesinberry's promotion from detective to sergeant, and Keith T. deShazo promotion from officer to sergeant.
Between the two new sergeants and their fathers, Retired Command Sergeant Raleigh C. deShazo and Lieutenant Stephen E. Quesinberry, the men share 113 years of police experience between them.
"That makes me really proud," said Steve Quesinberry as the four gathered to reflect on their careers prior to the ceremony. The senior Quesinberry's own father is a retired captain with the Norfolk Police Department, making his son a third generation police supervisor.
"I have two uncles who are also cops, in North Carolina," remarked Steve Quesinberry. "Somewhere I even have a picture of one uncle busting up a still," he added with a laugh.
It's an attitude
While they may have flirted with other careers at some point, all four Quesinberrys and deShazos expressed feelings of having been born to – or at least destined to – pursue police work.
Raleigh deShazo, who hired on with Henrico in 1962, was only the 56th member to join the Division since it had been organized. When he applied, he was working long hours for a soft drink company, and his wife encouraged him to seek police work.
"She's from England, and growing up, she always wanted to be a bobbie," said Raleigh deShazo of his wife.
After unsuccessfully trying out for the Richmond Police Department, and falling an inch short of its height requirement, deShazo went with Henrico.
"That was work," he now says of his former job with the soft drink company. "Then I went to the police department and had fun!"
Five years later, son Keith was born.
Of his early memories of his father's career, the younger deShazo recalls only that "I liked it and respected it. I met a lot of people he worked with, and they seemed to have a bond.
"I liked hanging around dad. At home he was just a normal dad – not a police officer."
Although his growing-up experiences probably predisposed him toward a police career, Keith deShazo said that he spent his last two years of college in a sales job and might easily have continued in that direction.
The idea of applying to the Henrico police force instead, he said, was really a matter of timing: the division announced an upcoming police academy, after going years without one due to hiring freezes.
Trying out for the academy also appealed to him as a challenge, said deShazo. "I had been working since I was 14," he said. "I'd always had a job, and I knew I could get a sales job."
With the police, on the other hand, "I knew I couldn't just walk in the door and get a job," he said.
There's a certain mindset, deShazo went on, that's essential to succeeding in police work. "If you don't want this career, you're not going to make it. Anyone with the police knows that in this profession you're going to make it on your own."
His father nodded his head in agreement. "You have to have an attitude," he said.
'All I've ever wanted to do'
To hear Steve Quesinberry tell it, he could not have avoided a police career if he had tried.
"Police work is all I've ever wanted to do," he said, noting that he grew up hearing his policeman father's stories every day at dinner and breakfast. "Dad would always talk about what happened last night; he always had a story bigger than TV."
On the other hand, said Quesinberry, he didn't want to work in the same place as his father. For the first five years of his career he was a paramedic in Norfolk. Then he came to Richmond to finish his degree at Virginia Commonwealth University, (VCU) with the intention of continuing into the FBI.
"But once I anchored here, I stayed," he said with a smile. "I'm glad this worked out," he said of his years with Henrico County, "because I don't know what else I would've done!"
His son Jeff feels the same way about his career with the police.
"I don't know any other lifestyle," he said. From the time he was seven and his father was running a training academy in the basement of Dabbs House, Jeff Quesinberry said he has felt at home around his dad's colleagues.
"Sometimes my mom would bring my sister and me [to Dabbs House] and we would goof off in the gym; we had a blast running around," he said.
Even the memories from his later, teen-age years didn't dissuade him from the idea of someday entering the police force.
"This was before the days of pagers and cell phones," he said of those years, "and the phone would always ring for my father in the middle of the night. I'd be trying to sleep, and I'd hear this 'thud, thud, thud' as he got up [and went to work]."
But while attending Benedictine High School, Jeff Quesinberry began considering a military career. A visit with a recruiter – who told him that his asthma would keep him out of the service – convinced him that he should stick with his police aspirations. He applied to Henrico County Division of Police before he had even reached the minimum age of 21, and while he was still taking coursework at VCU. But he was hired, the youngest recruit in his academy class by far.
"I didn't think I'd get picked up," he admitted, "because I was so young and hadn't finished my degree."
Shoulder to shoulder
Both younger sergeants agree that their fathers' presence in the division never made any difference in the way they were treated. "No one one ever cut me any slack," said Jeff Quesinberry. "You either cut the mustard [here] or you don't."
In fact, all four fathers and sons say that they have rarely crossed paths at work, either due to working different shifts or different ends of the county.
Steve Quesinberry can recall just one real encounter, when he was called to help break up a large party of about a thousand people that had gotten out of control.
"There were about 40 officers shoulder to shoulder," he said, "and as we lined up I realized that my son was to my right. Well, you don't know what a big crowd like that is going to do. So I told Jeff's mother later that I had my eye on him the whole time.
"Well, my wife said that Jeff said the same thing to her," he said. "'He had his eye on you the whole time!'"
The Deshazos also could recall only a handful of times they interacted at work. But as Keith was working a midnight shift some years ago, he had to arrest a young woman who had gotten too wild at a party. "She was not a big fan of me at all," he said, "and [as we headed to jail] she kept saying, 'I've had enough of you!'
"At the jail, I opened the door, and my dad was standing there. Well, she looked at my name tag, and she looked at his name tag," Keith deShazo said with a chuckle, "and she said, 'I've really had it now! I can't believe there's two of y'all!'"
All four men stressed that, in their line of work, support from spouses and family members is more important than in most jobs. Fortunately, said Keith deShazo, "My mom loves [the police]. I don't know anyone who loves it more than her."
"You've got to have the support of your spouse in this work," agreed his father, "because if you have children, [spouses] bring them up. When I started, we worked 60-hour weeks, including evenings and midnights. You were gone."
Jeff Quesinberry said his mother often jokes about the family choice of career, but she is proud just the same. "She gives Dad a hard time all the time," he said with a laugh. "She thinks I went in [the force] because of all his war stories." As for fatherly pride, just ask Steve Quesinberry what he thinks about his son's success and recent promotion.
"To look at Jeff – and I know Raleigh feels the same way about Keith -- it's like we're on the same baseball team," said Quesinberry. "He plays good, I play good.
"And now it's like he just hit one out of the park, and I'm going to go sit on the bench a few minutes and just watch him play. "
Also recognized at the July 31 ceremony were Anthony T. Dowdy, promoted to lieutenant; Animal Protection Officer Brandon N. Bohr, promoted to Animal Protection sergeant; and Detective Charles E. Hanna, promoted to sergeant.

A fun, fuzzy ride
'Muppets Most Wanted' worthy of its franchise
Do Muppets sleep? It's hard to say.
They don't really eat (or breathe, as far as anyone can tell). And only occasionally do they have visible, functioning legs.
As far as anyone knows, sleeping might be off the table. And that makes it very hard to accuse the Muppets of sleepwalking through their latest feature, Muppets Most Wanted – even if that's exactly what's going on.
Jim Henson's beloved creations were back in a big way after 2011's The Muppets, with fame and fortune and even an Oscar, a first for the group ("Rainbow Connection" was nominated, yet somehow failed to collect at the '79 ceremony). > Read more.

234 Wickenden St, Providence, RI | Directions 0290341.819657 -71.397446
Mon. - Fri., Sun. 7am - 3pm;Sat. 8am - 3pm
Neighborhoods: Fox Point
Good breakfast, good coffee, OK service and atmosphere – Great breakfast (my favorite is the chicken and avacado omelet - I forget what they call it) with a good variety of choices and very unique blend of ingredients. Good coffee, decent atmosphere, decent service. We had one bad experience when the waitress threw out our leftovers and made a rude comment that we should not have left it on the table, but we have seen gone back and enjoyed breakfast there again. Definitely worth trying.
This is good hangover food. Meet your friends there for brunch. Worth a 30 minute wait in line. – The menu is fantastic! There are all the right kind of simple and tasty combinations you could ask for in a selection of egg/omelet dishes. You'll have a hard time choosing what you want because you will want to eat all of it. I recommended Sunday brunch, but that's a busy time. If they say your wait time is over 40min I would move on. If 40min or less I would say it's worth the wait!
A MUST WHEN VISITING PROVIDENCE. – This is the second best breakfast spot I have ever been to... the coffee here was so good, they refer to it as "new england" coffee and the waitress insisted i try it. i had the black bean omelet (mexican style) and it was delcious.
Also, I love the atmosphere here, it is a cute little shack with colored walls and paintings, it has so much character. Very reasonably priced.
A great little place! – I went with my parents mid morning on a Sunday and it was packed. We had to wait about 20 minutes but it was well worth it! The prices are right and the food delicious. The service was also very good.
The perfect place to wake up, this bright, funky eatery serves breakfast all day. – The Scene
It might be the ceiling fans whirring softly overhead. Or maybe it's the retro, chrome diner tables, mismatched chairs and slightly chipped Fiestaware. Whatever makes it feel like home, the transition into morning will be gentle here. Located on a street known for its art scene, this restaurant is so relaxed that no one will give you a second glance if you show up in your pajamas.
The Food
Brickway's menu has a creative edge, especially when it comes to omelets. How about that three-egg Narragansett made with grilled chicken, avocado, tomato and bleu cheese? Traditionalists take heart: There are plenty of classic offerings to go around. Brickway's huge buttermilk pancakes, served in a stack of three with a sprinkling of powdered sugar, cover the plate.
The bestest – I've been to Brickway on Wickenden twice and will definately be going again and again. It is the best breakfast place I have been to in the Providence area. An eclectic interior offers the best pancakes I have ever had outside of my own kitchen. The homefries are terrific and not to greasy and the eggs are perfectly cooked to order. Nice wait staff and a relaxed atmosphere. Get there when it opens. Its a popular place and gets crowded by mid-morning.
Cute, cozy comfort! – Whether you are looking for a sunny place to brighten your morning or a good place to meet people for brunch, Brickway on Wickenden has it all. The food is fantastic, the prices are low, the ambience is warming, and the service is great. This place has it all!
cool place – Great service.. staff is attentive. The omelets are ont of this world with every combination you could think of.
The food is fresh and served hot and to order.
Great atmosphere, very layed back artsy crowd.
Good place to bring the entire family. Enjoy!
Love the Brickway – The Brickway is a great breakfast place. The food is really good and it is pretty inexpensive. The place does get crowded, so you might have to wait for a table.
Best breakfast in Providence! – For my money, there's no better breakfast house in Providence! We're not talking gourmet eats here, but great food at a great price that can't be beat.
The atmosphere is very RISD inspired with most of the furnishings (tables, chairs, utensils, etc.) culled from, what appear to be, a variety of yard sales. For the most part, nothing matches and nothing is supposed to. And that's the fun of it!
Check out the variety of pancake dishes served in generous portions! Top notch!

What Do Hackers Do With Stolen Passwords?
Add them to dictionaries, trade them on the black market, and use them for "spear phishing."
The news on Wednesday sounded like the setup for a lame Silicon Valley joke. Russian hackers stole 6 million passwords from LinkedIn. Did they mistranslate "world's largest professional network" as "professional network that people actually use"? Where will they strike next, Google+? What are they going to do now that they've hacked all of those accounts, sell a bunch of résumés on the black market? Use your contact list to spam you with even more LinkedIn email invitations than you already get?
Amid the yawns and derision, one small group of people took the LinkedIn breach very seriously: security experts.
The answers to the facetious questions above are, in all probability, no, no, yes, and yes. No, the Russian hackers aren't stupid, and they don't care whether you actually use LinkedIn or not. No, they did not strike next at Google—too secure—but at the massively popular dating site eHarmony. Yes, stealing résumés and other personal information is almost certainly part of the plan, and a potential gold mine at that. And yes, sending you bogus emails that appear to be from people you know is one of the main ways they'll hook you. It's a lot more effective than sending emails from someone posing as a Nigerian prince.
The full dimensions of the breach are not yet clear. LinkedIn and eHarmony have not been particularly forthcoming about when and how it happened, perhaps because even they don't know all the details yet. But computer security types are becoming increasingly convinced that the attack was more complex and sinister than the companies initially made it seem.
The bottom line: If you have a LinkedIn or eHarmony account, you should be concerned. And if you use the same password for other sites—particularly sensitive ones such as PayPal or Facebook—you should be very concerned. If you fall into either of those categories, you should go change your passwords immediately. (Well, you should finish reading this article first. But then go change those passwords!)
The first reports about the breach indicated that some 6.5 million LinkedIn user passwords had been published online, but without the email addresses needed to tie them to individual accounts. That sounded reassuring but raised a bunch of questions: Why would hackers post people's passwords on an Internet forum for all to see? How could those passwords be used once they became public? And if your password wasn't among those "cracked and leaked," did that mean you were safe?
Security experts have arrived at a surprising hypothesis: The hackers may have posted the passwords online because they needed the public's help cracking some of them. If yours isn't among those publicized, it may mean you're not safe at all—it's possible the hackers already figured out your password on their own. If that theory is true, that might also explain why no emails or other personal information was posted. Not because they don't have it but because they're keeping it to themselves, possibly with the intent of selling it to criminal hackers on the black market.
The majority of systematic security breaches, according to Symantec's Marian Merritt, are orchestrated by criminal gangs with a profit motive. A smaller number are the work of "hacktivist" groups such as Anonymous or LulzSec whose main goal is to embarrass, expose, thwart, or intimidate their targets, often large corporations that run afoul of the hackers' ideology. The LinkedIn breach bore a passing resemblance to past LulzSec hacks, including one that compromised the personal information of 1 million Sony users last summer. But no hacktivists have claimed responsibility, and the fact that the data were first posted on a Russian forum dedicated to password decryption suggests that publicity was a by-product of this attack, not its main intent.
So how exactly do cyber-crooks use these passwords once they have them? There are multiple potential uses, explains Chester Wisniewski, senior security adviser for data security firm Sophos. For hackers around the world, the huge trove of new leaked passwords is an opportunity to update their "rainbow tables"—vast databases that serve as a digital key for cracking encrypted passwords, called "hashes." The most-secure websites use an extra layer of password encryption, called "salting," so that two users with the same password—say, "123456"—will have different hashes. But LinkedIn didn't do that, so the same key will unlock the accounts of every user who has that password, not only on LinkedIn but on any other site that uses the same hashing algorithm. (eHarmony apparently used an even weaker algorithm, also sans salt.)
If the hackers have people's email addresses as well as their passwords—and most security analysts suspect they do—the information can also be used to target LinkedIn and eHarmony users directly. One of the first things crooks will do is run software that will try out the same email/password combinations on other sites, to see if they can get into people's financial or social media accounts.

What is Anxiety?Anxiety can be described as a painful uneasiness of mind, usually over an anticipated ill. An abnormal apprehension and fear often accompanied by physiological signs such as sweating and increased pulse, by doubt about the nature and reality of the 'threat' itself and by self-doubt. Most everyone will experience feelings of anxiety at some point in their life. Whether it's the birth of your first child, sudden loss of a job, or in preparation for a major medical procedure, most of us will experience occasions where our stress level becomes overwhelming. A close relative of excitement, anxiety can be best described in terms of worry, a general troubled or uneasy feeling of apprehension. The worry associated with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is chronic, persistent and habitual, often initiated by unrealistic situations or thoughts. In addition, this worry is seemingly uncontrollable and often interferes with our ability to concentrate or otherwise function comfortably and normally. For DSM IV classification of GAD, excessive, uncontrollable worry and anxiety should be present for more than half the days in a six-month period. The symptoms of anxiety will also cause 'clinically important distress or impair work, social or personal functioning,' distress not brought on by a general medical condition or substance abuse. Individuals suffering from anxiety often experience a host of physical symptoms including: inner nervousness, diarrhea, heightened blood pressure, shortness of breath, headaches, irritability, fatigue, sweating, muscle tension and shakiness. Generalized anxiety disorder can coexist with other ailments including panic disorder, depression, and alcoholism. Much is often made about the difference between a panic attack and an anxiety attack; but both have their origins in the physiological response associated with the 'fight or flight' response. The 'fight or flight' response is the body's fundamental, innate defense-response designed to ensure our survival. When we perceive excessive stress or imminent danger, the area of the brain called the hypothalamus triggers the release of naturally occurring biochemicals such as adrenaline, cortisol, sodium lactate and more. Simplified, these internally generated chemicals GREATLY increase our pain threshold; give us a powerful boost of energy, sharpens our senses, and increases our blood and oxygen supply to vital organs and muscles. This physiological response provides the body with the physical and mental "fuel" necessary to 'fight' or 'flee' the perceived threat. This stress response was of great benefit to our ancestors warding off an attack by an enemy tribe, or fleeing the jaws of a hungry saber-toothed tiger. But these types of real, imminent physical threats to our survival are really more the exception rather than the rule in our society. More often than not, it's not the ringing of your smoke alarm at 2am that triggers the release of these stress hormones. Today, it's more likely the person who cut you off on the busy freeway on your way to work, or the verbal exchange you had with your spouse. So instead of burning off this excess energy for the fuel it was meant to provide us (by actually running or fighting), these stress hormones are left to breakdown in the body. This is extremely taxing on our overall mental and physical health.
So while getting back to the difference between and an anxiety attack and a panic attack it's best to compare the two in terms of severity. An anxiety attack includes all the body symptoms associated with HIGH anxiety: inner nervousness, increased pulse, shakiness, etc. But this anxiety is long lasting and doesn't appear "out of the blue." A panic attack on the other hand strikes abruptly, is marked by intense fear and discomfort, and takes about 20 minutes to fully build, peak and ebb. One is left with continued anxiety but not panic.
|Michelle's case history serves as a good example of the typical GAD sufferer's experience."Ever since I was a small child; I have always had this fear which I described to my doctor as "a funny feeling" in my stomach. Needless to say, no one understood what this small child meant and I had no other way to express what I was feeling. School was especially difficult for me. I would have these 'nervous attacks' in class and I knew everyone was looking at me as I sat there, perspiring. I just kind of held on to my desk, praying the bell would ring so I could get out and get some air. I felt this same way anytime I had to talk in front people, eat out at a restaurant with my family or travel to some place new.Things really got bad for me when I entered college. My grades were good enough that I received a partial scholarship to a prominent nursing school. But, the more I learned about the various medical maladies and procedures, the more I began to worry that I might be suffering from a serious medical problem myself. I obsessed that I had a heart condition, a brain tumor, leukemia -whatever we were studying, I developed the symptoms. I saw our family physician on a regular basis, to no avail. Test after test confirmed that physically, I was perfectly fine. I didn't believe it. I thought he just had to be missing something. I was always nervous and jittery. My heart would always be racing. I had strange aches and numbness in my arms and legs. My doctor suggested that it was likely just stress, and prescribed some (prescription drug brand). The pills did help me relax, but I felt like a zombie and only took them if things got really bad. I believed I was alone, totally different from everyone else and quite possibly, 'losing my mind.'"

I must say our journey is thrilled with excitement and surprises as we are amazed to see its beautiful interior, lavish dining hall, salon, bedrooms, bar and every other single thing about this royal train. It is beautifully coroneted and it feels like we are in some house, it's not wrong if we can say that we are experiencing our house on wheels. Wow!!!!

The 2012 GC Compensation Survey
Top lawyer pay craters. Is this a short setbackor the start of a trend?
|0 Comments
What a difference a year makes. This time last year, Charles Kalil was in the number 12 spot on our annual list of the highest-paid Fortune 500 general counsel. In last year's report, the GC of The Dow Chemical Company enjoyed a hefty $1.8 million bonus and earned $2.67 million in total cash compensation. But Kalil needed fewer wheelbarrows to cart his money to the bank in 2011. His earnings took a nosedive to $1.56 million, the direct result of a precipitous $1 million drop in his bonus.
Why? The chemical giant linked its executives' bonuses to meeting critical annual company goals in 2011. And since Dow's top brass didn't meet projected profit and cost management targets, Kalil's base performance award was just half of what it could have been.
2012 GC Compensation Survey:
Kalil's slide was one of the year's steeper drops; he landed at number 39 on this year's list. But Corporate Counsel 's latest GC Compensation Survey shows that he wasn't alone. It was a year of declinessome in the double digitsfor every component of GC pay that we measure. A number of reasons are to blamethe economy, poor share performance, and last but decidedly not least, shareholder scrutiny. Say-on-pay resolutions are taking their toll on executive pay, and GCs aren't immune.
As bad as they look, this year's results go down better with a spoonful of historical context. The drops come on the heels of double-digit gains across most categories in last year's survey. And those results in turn followed a year of plunging take-home cash, particularly in the area of bonuses.
So what's the bottom line? "After three very volatile years, what we're seeing is a return to normalcy," says Aaron Boyd, head of research at executive compensation analysts Equilar Inc. in San Francisco.
Let's examine the components of GC compensation individually. Base pay took the softest blow in this year's survey, dropping only 1.8 percent, to $611,411. That wasn't surprising, because salary tends to be the most static element of the executive total pay packet. That's unlike stock awards and bonuses, which tend to fluctuate dramatically, a trend exacerbated over the last five years. Salary averages, on the other hand, have fluctuated just 2.6 percent per year. From 2009 to 2010, GCs saw their base pay inch up 0.6 percent. (For an explanation of how we conduct the survey, see our Methodology page.)
The highest-salaried GC on this year's list was Philip Morris International Inc.'s David Bernick. After just two years with Philip Morris, the GC abruptly resigned his post in February. But before he left, the tobacco company's top lawyer was earning an annual salary of $1.6 million. If he sticks to the terms of his noncompete agreement, Bernick stands to collect an additional $1.6 million next February. Not too shabby for not working against the company for a year, right?
After a 28.7 percent surge the previous year, bonuses did an about-face in our most recent survey. Traditional bonuses and nonequity incentive pay (which basically are bonuses tied to meeting certain targets) were down a combined 7.7 percent, to an average of $1,125,458. That's not to say that there weren't GCs who were handsomely rewarded for a job well done. Thirty-nine lawyers crossed the million-dollar bonus marktwo fewer than last year. The biggest bonus check was made out to Louis Briskman, CBS Corporation's general counsel. He took home $5.2 million in bonus and nonequity incentive compensation, a package that hoisted him to the top of this year's survey.
Briskman's cash compensation totaled $6.5 millionwhich incidentally was about the same amount earned by last year's highest-paid GC. But overall, chief legal officers from the nation's largest companies took a hit in total cash compensation. The average salary-plus-bonus combo weighed in at $1,736,869, down 5.7 percent from the year before.
Cash compensation is only part of a chief legal officer's pay packet. Stock awards (either options or grants) are a big part of the lure of working in-house, and here again, there's another contrast to the relatively stable base salary picture. (We feature stock awards in our survey, since they're such a large part of the total compensation package, but our rankings are based on cash compensation only.)
Now for the punch line: GCs had a collective case of the incredibly shrinking equity award last year. The average stock award fell 10.8 percent, to $1,426,325, in this year's survey. And of the 70 lawyers who received once-lucrative (but still coveted) option awards, the average award fell a shocking 18.7 percent, to $732,453. To be sure, not everyone saw his or her stock portfolio wind up underwater: Google Inc.'s David Drummond, for example, received an $8.4 million stock grant and an option award of $6.2 million.

Employer-Based Health Insurance Is Afflicting Americans In This Way
NEW YORK ( MainStreet) Nearly half (47%) of Americans with employer-based health insurance say more money is being taken out of their paychecks each month for health insurance than a year ago, according to a new Bankrate.com report.
The survey also revealed that upper middle-income Americans with employer-based health insurance (annual household incomes between $50,000 and $74,999) are the most likely to report that more money is being taken from their paychecks and higher out-of-pocket expenses. Overall, respondents in this group feel the hardest hit by Obamacare. Out of all income levels, 47% reported that the law has had a negative effect on their health insurance.
"Since so much of the Obamacare conversation has focused on uninsured Americans and the government-run exchanges, it's easy to forget most Americans about 150 million get their health insurance from an employer," said Bankrate.com insurance analyst Doug Whiteman. "People covered under these plans should watch for changes and discuss with their employers how Obamacare may affect their coverage and costs."
Some 44% of the respondents said they are experiencing higher out-of-pocket expenses, including deductibles and co-payments, compared to one year ago.
One positive note is that while many people feared losing family coverage as a result of the Affordable Care Act, very few employers have taken this step. Less than one in ten Americans with employer-based health insurance lost coverage for a spouse or child this year.
Only two in ten Americans with employer-based health insurance now have fewer doctors included in their plans.
Consumers need to be aware of the rising costs of health insurance, especially since employers have been passing along more of the costs for several years now, he said.
Employees should analyze their options and take a closer look at all the options for their health insurance offered at work or a private health exchange, Whiteman said.
"In some cases, getting insurance through the health exchanges could be more costeffective, so it is important to research all possibilities," he said. "Some people might find something less expensive through the exchanges and should switch."
The survey also found that 52% of females with employer-based coverage report higher out-of-pocket expenses, compared to only 35% of males.
The number of Americans who dislike Obamacare is rising slightly 48% of Americans want to repeal Obamacare and only 38% want to keep it. When Bankrate.com asked this question in late September, 46% of Americans wanted to repeal Obamacare and 46% wanted to keep it.
Americans who feel more negative about the law currently outnumber those feeling more positive by a two-to-one margin (31% to 15%).
"Perhaps more than ever, people now need to fully understand not only their healthcare options, but the associated costs," said Gail Cunningham, vice president of membership and public relations for the National Foundation for Credit Counseling. "Many who have employer provided health insurance have put it on auto-pilot, blindly accepting incremental cost increases as a fact of life."

For Instructors
The Please Stop List
03/15/2011 7:16 am
The funny thing about this post is that I?m most likely writing to people who do not follow (and participate in) this part of the site. That?s OK; maybe I?m discussing some things you find frustrating also. If I am, let me know. This is a list of classroom activities I?d like to place under the heading of Please Stop. 1: Please stop encouraging students to perform Standing Flats with only their fingertips on the handlebars. It doesn?t demonstrate proper balance; it?s potentially dangerous and inaccurate as an assessment. 2: Please stop equating overly high cadence and low resistance with Sprints on a Flat. Sprints are always performed with strong resistance loads for periods of time less than thirty seconds. 3: Please stop instructing students to set their handlebars lower in the belief that it will help strengthen their core. It contributes to poor form and overly stresses the muscles of the lower back. 4: Please stop demonstrating and coaching isolations during Standing Flats. They have no purpose and are much more likely to contribute to both knee and lower back stress than to any meaningful muscular intensity gains.Share

Four Men's Soccer Players Named PBC All-Conference
AUGUSTA, GA – The Peach Belt Conference has announced the 2010 men's soccer All-Conference team at a banquet in Augusta, Ga., and four North Georgia players were selected for the team.
For the third straight season Ben Chedgy has been named First-Team All-Conference, while Rade Tanaskovic was also tabbed All-Conference for the second straight, this year earning First-Team honors. Juan Hurtado and Gray Phelps were also recognized as Second-Team participants.
Defender Ben Chedgy has played and started in 17 games for the Saints in 2010. He has logged a team-high 1668 minutes, while anchoring the North Georgia defense, a squad that ranks fourth in the PBC in shutouts and fourth in goals allowed. Chedgy has a career-high four goals in a single season with one game-winning goal coming against Belmont Abbey on September 4. The senior was a Pre-Season All-Conference pick and was named Peach Belt Defender of the Week during the week of September 7.
A Peach Belt Preseason All-Conference pick, Rade Tanaskovic has played and started in 14 games for the Saints while logging 1311 minutes of action. He ranks sixth in the conference with 49 saves and seventh in the league in saves per game with 3.50. Tanaskovic has recorded six wins, while the Serbia native has also notched six shutouts to place him fourth in the Peach Belt in shutouts this season. A defending All-Conference selection and All-Region member, Tanaskovic has allowed 16 goals, giving him a 1.10 goals against average, good four fourth in the league.
Junior Gray Phelps has seen action in 17 games this season, starting in 15 contests and logging 983 minutes of action. The South Carolina native has scored five goals with three game-winning goals, two of which were against conference opponents. Phelps is tied for ninth in the league with five goals and sits third in the Peach Belt in game-winning goals with three.
Sophomore Juan Hurtado has played in all 18 games for the Saints and started 17 contests in 2010. He has logged 1374 minutes of action, while scoring two goals and adding one assist. Hurtado has 40 total shots and recorded a shot percentage of .050, while both of his scores were game-winners.
For the second time in the last four years, Clayton State swept all three major awards as Ryan Pugh was named the Player of the Year, Arturo Cruz the Freshman of the Year and Pete Petersen the Coach of the Year. In all, 24 players were named to the first and second teams, the number expanded by two due to ties.
Sitting seventh in the latest NCAA Division II Southeast Region Poll, the Saints are holding out on an outside chance to qualify for the program's first-ever NCAA National Tournament. The Live selection show will take place on Monday evening on NCAA.com

I got a new machine with i7 4770k and gefore gtx660. I installed windows and then installed Ubuntu 13.04. In the installation everything went well, after the installation I again boot from the USB and choose try ubuntu, and installed boot-repair because windows automatically boot with no option for ubuntu.
After I repaired the boot, I restarted and got into grub, when I chose Ubuntu I got message saying I'm running on low graphics mode and when I pressed ok the screen turned off. I couldn't do anything so I restarted and after reading this post: My computer boots to a black screen, what options do I have to fix it?
I got into recovery, selected dpkg and repaired packages. Then I rebooted, and tried to press 'e' and change
quiet splash to
no splash and
nomodeset but unfortunately both of them didn't work, and not the screen didn't get turned off, but I just saw a blank screen.
So I rebooted again, entered the recovery, and this time I went to the root shell, and tried to install nvidia drivers from this guide here: http://www.howopensource.com/2012/10/install-nvidia-geforce-driver-in-ubuntu-12-10-12-04-using-ppa/
I rebooted and got the same black screen again (the screen didn't go off, just saw a blank screen).
In the grub I see that the kernel is 3.8.0-25.
I also checked that the usb files are not corrupted using the check CD from the ubuntu installation screen.
I'm really frustrated, I don't know what else can I do.
(If someone also knows how can I connect to wifi using the root shell it will be very appreciated, because when I choose the 'enable networking' it again booting me to a black screen.
After digging more, I again boot with
nomodeset and saw where is it failing, this is the lines I saw:
* Starting Reload cups, upon starting avahi-daemon to make sure remote queues are populated [OK]
* Starting Reload cups, upon starting avahi-daemon to make sure remote queues are populated [fail]
I searched for it in google and this is the closest result I got: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2144261
i didn't find any way to solve it in the internet, from what I understand this is a problem with 13.04. If someone knows how to fix it I will be very grateful.
Edit 2 - 23.6.13
As Mitch suggested, I disabled the avahi-daemon, and when I boot in
nomodeset I get the following error:
What else can be the problem?

Microsoft introduced the .docx file format in its new Office and Word applications and wants it to replace the commonly used doc format. The problem with the change from doc to docx is that many users are still working with prior versions of Word or no Microsoft product at all and face the problem that they can't load the docx file because it is not supported in their application. To make matters even worse, the trial version of Word 2007 will only save in the new docx format and has the 'Copy' and 'Paste' functions disabled. Anyone who created documents in the new Word 2007 trial edition were forced to save in the new format with no chance to transfer their own information to another application. Once the trial expired, you had two choices – buy Word 2007 in order to retrieve your information or re-enter all that information once again in another application.

N.O.R.E. – War Song Lyrics
[Verse 1: Noreaga]
Lollipop hoes, sucker shit
Lefrack shooter squad
My murder unit, niggas running through your rod
I could occupy Wall Street
But I'd rather occupy where the halls be
They say morning sex is the best breakfast
If her head right, she might get a necklace
It ain't tricking if you got it
You on top of the world, baby, that's my dick
Militainment, for the princess
Got weight on her chest -- bench press
Yeah, I'm about to let my shooters go
Green light on you, I let my shooters know
Assassinate you
Cut your dick off, fucking castrate you
[Hook: Noreaga]
Yeah, this ain't nothing but a war song
That's right, this ain't nothing but a war song
This ain't nothing but a war song
That's right, this ain't nothing but a war song
They want beef, then we go to they crib
They want drama, then we go where they live
They want beef, then we go to they crib
Shit stinks and you know what it is
[Verse 2: Glacierz]
Fuck bitches, lick blood from a tampon
I'm the reason you wake up to your mans gone
Dead hoes, the Marilyn Monroes
Now tell me who the best, I'm all ears -- Dumbo
I stay on top of niggas, y'all giving top to niggas
I'm like them yellow cabs, bitch, you don't stop for niggas
Dudes thirsty but I'm too laid back
And keep the fools needing water like a Kool Aid pack
Damn nice, damn right from Van Dyke
Buffalo these broads like the bottom of Air Nikes
Got em like, "Why they give her the damn mic?"
The way I eat bitches, niggas think I'm a damn dyke
Step in Guiseppes, niggas respect g
N.O.R.E. are together like testes, see
So you might want to bang yourself
My pussy juice is on your nooses -- bitch, hang yourself

sellswords mode - an entirely new game
|Dec 07, 2012
|Skyrim: Sellswords Mode by Alex Ducey This mod creates an entirely new game mode that is wholly separate from the Skyrim campaign, and in no way interferes with the Tamriel of Bethesda's creation. This mode is meant to simulate Mercenaries mode from Resident Evil, but knowledge of those games in no way helps with this one.

Skyrim - The Nudist Era of Tamriel
|Jun 19, 2012
|Ever get annoyed of npcs always spamming "Put some clothes on, aren't you embarassed?" Now, you can say it to them, anyone of them. All their armor is removed. This mod is compatible with any mod except: Mods that change the clothing of default clothes. Seeing how there are nude mods on this website, I think this should be fine when it doesn't make the game have nude characters. Just unequips every single npc's armor.

Now you can engage in a battle of the Thu'um with the deadliest dragons of Skyrim, and complete a quest to enchant a magic talisman that protects your companions from the harmful effects of your shouts.

After one year on the market, Gambrinus 11° Excelent is the most sold "eleven percent beer" on the Czech market, whether it be in bottles or on tap (Translation)
12 November 2009
Prague/Plzeň, November 11, 2009 - Today Gambrinus 11° Excelent celebrates the first anniversary of its introduction into the Czech market. In only one year of existence, it has become an important player in the Czech market of "eleven percent beers" and in the premium segment of 11° bottled beer or beer on tap, and it even received the best reviews. Gambrinus 11° Excelent contributes considerably to the rising trend and increased popularity of 11° beers in the Czech Republic, which already have an 11% share of the Czech beer market.
"The trend in consumption of 11° beers in the Czech Republic is on the rise, which can also be seen in the spectrum of products of this higher grade beer by numerous labels. Today, Gambrinus 11° Excelent already has a considerable share of the premium segment; we expect that its popularity will continue to rise," states Jiří Rákosník, brand manager of the Gambrinus brand.
The secret of Gambrinus 11° Excelent's success is its unique taste and its intensive aroma of hops, which comes from adding caramel malt and a unique dosage of hops. Thanks to these virtues, after only being on the market for a few months, Gambrinus 11° Excelent won a gold medal in the Selection of Suppliers competition - Best newcomer of 2009 in the beer category. Another important hurdle was getting approval to use the protected geographical label, Czech beer.
Gambrinus 11° Excelent
Type of fermentation - bottom fermentation
Taste - rich and full taste with a distinct aroma of hops
Grade - 11.3° (that is 11.3 % of fermented extract in the original wort)
Amount of alcohol - 4.7 % content
Packaging - 0.5 l bottles (cases and multipacks of 8 pieces), KEG barrels 50 and 30 l

CD/LP/Track Review
George Brooks: Spirit and Spice (2010)
Tenor saxophonist George Brooks equalizes the union of Indian classical music and jazz, abetted by an all-universe rhythm section and East Indian instrumentalists. With Spirit and Spice, Brooks projects a distinct voice as he poignantly merges the core attributes of both genres, and it's a happy marriage, indeed.
Brooks' authoritative presence looms on high-impact funk, and thrusting Indo-fusion pieces. On "Spirit," the saxophonist's yearning lines are designed with positive implications atop bassist Kai Eckhardt's resonating harmonics and pianist Frank Martin's supple voicings. Brooks quietly projects a memorable melody that he incorporates into a pungent bridge section, as drummer Steve Smith elevates the pitch with polyrhythmic pulses. Brooks' soul-drenched notes serve as the underlying context for Martin and guitarist Fareed Haque's darting solos, via a gradual shift of momentum back to the primary theme. "Spirit" is one of numerous highlights on this beguiling studio date.
Track Listing: Track #1; Track #2; Track #3.
Personnel: George Brooks: saxophones; Fareed Haque: guitar; Kai Eckhardt: bass; Steve Smith: drums, konnakol; Niladri Kumar: sitar; Frank Martin: piano; Swapan Chaudhuri: tabla; Kala Ramnath: violin.

Many families focus on one child as the troublemaker - the one who seems to be at the center of the family's problems. This is the child who acts up at home or in school for what seems to be no reason at all. Well, there is usually a reason.
Studies today generally agree that a child who is "acting out" is seeking some kind of help. Most parents' natural reaction, though, is to punish, which leads to more disruptive behavior. The end result is mutual frustration.
When parents cannot cope with the problem child -or the child with problems - the wisest course is to get professional assistance from a marriage and family counselor. Family therapy can help the child learn to express needs in a more direct manner and enable family members to be more responsive to each other's needs. Sometimes the family discovers that the "problem child" is just a scapegoat for other family problems that need to be addressed in a professional setting.
Contact a counselor of your choice should this be an area of concern with your family.

Amazing Highlights by Emily!! – Great salon tucked away in the heart of Union Square. I had passed by this salon a couple of times since I worked in the neighborhood and picked up one of their fliers. I called to make an appointment and that is when I first met Emily. I had a couple of bad run ins previously and needed an overhaul on my highlights. I told Emily what I was looking for and was delighted when she finished and my highlights looked fabulous. If you are looking for excellent service and wonderful color, Emily is your girl. I highly recommend Stoll salon to anyone looking for a great salon experience.
Chick but not pretentious. – My search was over many years ago when I discovered Stoll Salon. What an excellent Salon, not because of the friendly, relaxed and professional atmosphere and superb artistry, but everyone there listen to what I want and add there expertise's with honesty and knowledge. I'm very picky about my highlights and cut, I have felt like a million backs each time I have left Stoll Salon. Rosemarie and Shifa are both fantastic!! I will never go anywhere else, I highly recommend Stoll Salon.
Have a seat, get your hair done, and BREATHE – Stoll Salone has been the only hair salon I have gone to for the past 9 years. I have never gotten a bad hair cut or color. Consistency is worth its weight in gold, particularly when it comes to your hair. Beyond a great cut and color, consider it an hour or two of therapy. Stephen Stoll, the owner, is one of the most upbeat, nicest, warmest, cuddliest people you will every meet. He makes you feel good about everything. And will listen to all the drama going on in your life without judgement but always with a smile. Su is my hair stylist and she is amazing. How many hair stylists have you been to that you can say they have never once given you a bad cut. And it grows out really really nicely. The entire team is amazing. The only sad part is when they're done washing your hair because the head massages feel so good! Stoll Salon is simply the best!
Consistently excellent – I've been getting my hair cut and styled by my stylist at Stoll for longer than I can remember. It's been at least 10 years. Although the salon has undergone a couple of ownership changes, the same outstanding, talented core group has remained.
The stylists and colorists know their stuff. Not only that, but they get to know you so they can give you a hairstyle that fits your personality and how much effort you want to put into maintaining it. It's also a friendly place, always welcoming -- and very reasonably priced considering the quality and service that's provided.
best cut I ever got!!11 – I have very curly hair and Jamie gave me a beautiful cut. most people think it's easy but one bad cut sent me running to a new salon, now I'm so happy with my hair no one else will ever touch it again!!!
The search is over... – As a designer/painter I'm very critical of my own work, so when it comes to finding a stylist to cut my hair just right you can say i've run through my share of so called 'stylists' in NY. Thankfully, with the help of all the feedback on Citysearch I've found a home at Rumor Salon. Su Kim's artistry and her staffs' hospitality + level of professionalism are second to none. Thank You!
Amazing Hair Artist, Never been disappointed – I have been getting hair cuts from Cristiano for 4 years, never been disappointed. Cristiano treated each hair cut as scapturing art. He took his time making sure the entire hair cut is perfect. His hair cuts always look stylish and nature. His hair cuts are also practical, very easy to maintain at home, I don't need to use any hair products to hold the shape. I always get great compliments for my hair cuts at work & sometimes on the streets. Cristiano's creativities seem unlimited, whenever I feel like to have a make over, I just need to tell him, he always came up with something amazing.
Best Highlights by Steven – Steven is a great professional. Fast and quality work. Very nice guy. The salon has reasonable prices for Manhattan. I paid $125 plus tip for half head highlights and lowlights together. Blowdry is free with any service. I tried many colorists and he is one of the best. Very recommended.
expensive but worth every penny!!! – rumor is by far one of the best salons in new york. you can have a very trendy white-blonde rocker cut or soft waves and long layers. shifa works with you peice by peice of hair, completely open to your thoughts. she cuts slowly and never too much. i have very thick hair, and ive never liked it down till she cut it. now, its light and flowing. Steven gave me the perfect hue of blonde and even suggested lightening my eyebrows(for free!). with there work i have never felt more beautiful. be warned: if you like you hair straight, brown, natural, or work-free, rumor is not your salon. these cuts and colors are for girls who want there hair to stand out and make a statement. its about experimentation and playfulness! yes, it is expensive, but everywhere in manhattan is! this is actually one of the better ones. but be prepared to drop $250-300 (tip included)for highlights and a cut. they do try and be nice to students. i was not given tip evelopes and i was given 20% off my color when i brought in a post card located outside the door on the street. so if your a first timer, you can save a bit if you bring one of those in!
Will be flying in from SF to see Su – I've been going to Su for 3 years and she is the best stylist I've ever had. Upon moving to NYC I went through many cheap & expensive bad haircuts until I found her. Now I've moved to SF. After getting a really bad cut from a "top" SF salon, I've just decided that I'll fly back every 6 months to see her.
Su has seen me through super short to shoulder length and back to short again. Even when I was growing my hair out, it didn't seem like it because she was able to give me style at every stage along the way. Su really pays attention to how your hair grows, cutting it so that cowlicks, etc., aren't an issue. And she also really shapes the cut to your features. Besides telling her what general length I'm going for, I let her do what she wants. I always come away w/ an edgy, modern, yet soft and pretty cut. (I know those may sound like contradicting descriptions, but she does it!) She is amazing and she is the thing I miss most about NYC!
Shifa is also great. She cut my hubby's hair for years and did my hair for our wedding. If a guy will pay $100 for a haircut, you know it's gotta be good! (Also, she gives free mid-cycle clean ups.)
Some may say Rumor is expensive, but at least you are getting what you paid for. I've been to Bumble+Bumble, Fekkai, etc., and paid a fortune for uninspired cuts. Su and Shifa both really take their time to make sure your hair will look great every day - not just the day you walk out of the salon.
You should give Su a try especially if you have short girl hair. I've had too many short hair cuts that make you look like a midwest housewife, a little girl, a mid-90's clud kid. Su will make you look grown up and fabulous!
