What GAO Found
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) established federal minimum medical loss ratio (MLR) standards for the percentage of premiums private insurers must spend on their enrollees' medical care claims and activities to improve health care quality, as opposed to what they spend on administrative ("non-claims") costs. Insurers report to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) annually on their PPACA MLRs. More than three quarters of insurers met or exceeded the standards in 2011 and in 2012, and the median MLRs among all insurers were 88 percent. Insurers' MLRs and their spending on claims and non-claims costs varied across different insurance markets. Specifically, insurers in the large group market had higher median MLRs and spent a higher share of their premiums on enrollees' claims and less on non-claims costs, compared to insurers in the individual and small group markets.
Insurers that did not meet or exceed the PPACA MLR standards in 2011 and 2012 paid rebates in the amounts of $1.1 billion and $520 million (respectively) back to enrollees and policyholders who paid premiums in those years. These amounts would have decreased by about 75 percent had the commissions and fees insurers paid to agents and brokers been excluded from the MLRs. Agents and brokers sell insurance products and provide various services to consumers and groups related to their insurance needs and the commissions and fees charged for these services are included in the MLRs. Insurers in the large group market paid the highest rebate amount ($405 million) across insurance markets in 2011 and insurers in the small group market paid the highest amount ($207 million) in 2012. Insurers in the individual market were more likely to pay rebates than insurers in the small and large group markets. GAO found that rebates would have fallen from $1.1 billion to $272 million in 2011 if the commissions and fees insurers paid to agents and brokers had been excluded from the MLRs, and rebates would have similarly fallen from $520 million to $135 million in 2012. GAO's calculations assumed that insurers did not make other changes in their business practices in response to a different method for calculating MLRs.
GAO found that most of the eight insurers it interviewed reported that factors other than the PPACA MLR requirements affected their business practices since 2011. All eight insurers reported that they increased their premium rates since 2011 and that they based these decisions on a variety of factors, such as trends in medical care claims, competition with other insurers, and other requirements. Three of the eight insurers stated that the MLR requirements were one among several factors that influenced their decisions about premium rates. Four of the eight insurers stated they had recently made changes to their payments to agents and brokers, and one reported the MLR requirements were a primary driver behind its business decision. All eight insurers GAO interviewed stated that the MLR requirements did not affect their decisions to stop offering health plans in certain markets and have had no effect or a very limited effect on their spending on quality improvement activities.
GAO provided a draft of this product to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) for comment. HHS responded that it had no general or technical comments.
Why GAO Did This Study
Private insurers are required to meet minimum PPACA MLR standards— expressed as the percent of premium dollars spent on patient care and related activities—and beginning in 2011 they must pay rebates back to enrollees and policyholders who paid premiums if they do not meet these standards. GAO was asked to review the effects of the PPACA MLR requirements on insurers and enrollees and how rebates would change if agent and broker payments were excluded from the MLR formula. This report examines (1) the extent to which insurers met the PPACA MLR standards, and how much they spent on the MLR components of claims, quality improvement activities, and non-claims costs; (2) the amount of rebates insurers paid and how this amount would have changed with agents' and brokers' commissions and fees excluded from the MLR; and (3) the perspectives of insurers on the effects of the MLR requirements on their business practices.
To do this work, GAO analyzed the MLR data that insurers reported to CMS for 2011 and 2012 (the most recent data available) at the national level for each insurance market—large group, small group, and individual. GAO also interviewed eight insurers, selected based on variation in their size, concentration of business in the individual market, geography, whether they paid rebates, and profit status. In 2012 the number of enrollees covered by these insurers ranged from about 70,000 to 7 million. GAO's finding on insurers' perspectives is limited to those insurers interviewed and is not representative of the perspectives across all insurers reporting MLR data.

A cheeky salute one of Japan's biggest taboos:The gangster-turned-ink artist trying to change country's attitude to body art
The tattoos he creates are a far cry from the Asian symbols and tribal designs that have become popular in the west.
Japanese artist Horiyoshi III creates the startling full-body 'suit' tattoos that are synonymous with the country's criminal underworld.
The mastermind was himself a member of the notorious yakuza before swapping a life of crime for a career with behind needle - but Horiyoshi III is trying to break the connection between body art and the mafia and end the widescale discrimination of tattooed people in Japan.
A group of men show their tattoos created by artist Horiyoshii III
Japanese tattooist Horiyoshii III tattoos a flower on the back of a female customer
Tattooed people are barred entry
from scores of venues in Japan, from hot springs to fitness centres,
while the mayor of Osaka recently forced city employees to fill out a
survey revealing whether or not they have a tattoo.
discrimination is tied to a seemingly unbreakable association with the
yakuza, whose members' distinctive tattoos denote their association to
crime families, such as the Yamaguchi-gumi.
crime clan is believed to have about 50,000 members, who have a
reputation for engaging in everything from gambling, drugs and
prostitution to white-collar crime and loan-sharking.
Horiyoshi said: 'Tattoos have a bad image everywhere, but particularly in Japan they are associated with violence and yakuza, even if that is a simplistic view.'
'This image is still stuck in peoples' minds: tattoo equals criminal, criminal equals yakuza. People are now scared of tattoos.'
For tattoo artist Horiyoshi III, the skin into which he sinks his ink-infused needle is a living canvas for the myths and legends of Japan, where body art is indelibly linked to the violent gangsters of the criminal underworld
For Horiyoshi III, the skin into which he sinks his ink-infused needle is a canvas for the myths and legends of Japan .
The artist, who uses the modern metal variation of a bamboo stick still favoured by some traditionalists, says his biggest inspiration is Hokusai, an artist famed for woodblock prints of a tsunami against Mount Fuji.
'But I am also influenced by other Japanese artists,' he said at an exhibition of his work -- with all live subjects -- last month in Tokyo, citing Utagawa Kuniyoshi, known for his landscapes, mystical animals and depictions of samurai swordfights.
Bare art: Two women show off tattoos that cover their entire backs
Horiyoshi's German-born apprentice Alexander Reinke, insists tattoos in Japan differ greatly from those found in Europe and the U.S.
He explained: 'The biggest difference is that tattoos in the West are created to underline a person's individuality.
'They want to make a statement or remember something they are a really big fan of.
'But in Japan some groups get tattoos not to underline their individuality because individuality is not so important in Japan, it's the group that is important," Reinke added.
That mentality often translates into tattoo clubs where members meet and show off their designs, just regular people with "normal jobs" who have a passion for body art, he said.
'Usually, a group that is tattooed by the same master kind of forms a little club by themselves, like here today where everybody who is meeting has been tattooed by Mr Horiyoshi and is just having a good time.'

If you answered "no" to these questions, you're probably somewhat normal, but you may not be meeting your RDA of neurological gratification. Just to warn you, your ganglia are unlikely to pulse with lascivious synapses at The Five Senses either. Despite its promising title, this new film from Canadian director Jeremy Podeswa (Eclipse) isn't much of a candidate for the midnight circuit, as it's less about sensual excitement than about people simply coping with boring routines. True, their senses (and instincts) ultimately lift them out of their ruts, but the catalysts are mostly contrived. Hearing is represented by classical music. Taste by cake. Touch by massage. Passion by Italians. And so on. It's all good, as they say, but don't expect to be wowed by a vast spectrum of delicacies, as the buffet here is composed of entirely obvious ingredients.
Of course, that also seems to be the point Podeswa wants to make: that we humans are capable of experiencing much more of our immediate environments, relishing even the simple stuff, and being the more whole for our efforts. Set over three tense days in Toronto, the movie follows the interweaving paths of several distraught characters, each of whom has a lesson to learn from--naturally--their senses. Rona (Mary-Louise Parker) is a baker, but her beautifully crafted cakes are purely cosmetic creations, not very much fun to eat, representing (bingo!) her life. Against the advice of her effeminate, lovelorn friend Robert (Daniel MacIvor), she invites a fling from Italy to come live with her. The (yawn) delightfully exotic Roberto (Marco Leonardi) is everything Rona's confections are not, and he quickly sets about teaching her the meaning of taste.
Release Date:
August 4
Inhabiting the same building as Rona are Richard (Philippe Volter), an eye doctor who has just discovered that he is going deaf, and Ruth (Gabrielle Rose), a massage therapist who couldn't be more out of touch with her teenage daughter, Rachel (Nadia Litz). While Richard attempts to catalog memories of sounds in his mind, Rachel takes two-year-old Amy Lee (Elize Frances Stolk), daughter of her mother's client, Anna (Molly Parker), on a trip to the park. Setting the wheels of conflict and universal interconnectedness in motion, the adolescent takes her eyes off her charge to scrutinize a couple making love in the foliage. The child disappears, the mothers lose their balance, and a complex drama of self-discovery unfolds.
While the stimuli of The Five Senses may be a bit rote, and the pacing offers yards of slack, the performances are uniformly energetic, and Podeswa has a gift for orchestrating moving moments in deceptively simple circumstances. For example, when Richard gets down on himself about his hearing loss and hires former flame Gail (Pascale Bussieres) to raise his spirits, she decides to accompany him on his quest for auditory pleasure, and prostitution soon turns to poetry. Less convincing is the silly transformation of Rachel's randy friend Rupert (Brendan Fletcher), but their experiences along the way feel like genuine teenage oats. The most memorable sequences probably come from Robert, as the house-cleaner desperately reconnects with his exes, hoping to detect upon one of them the undeniable stench of love.
This screenplay wouldn't get past the greenest of Hollywood readers (its structure is all over the place, and it wraps up so abruptly, the credits will startle you), but the dialogue and individual scenes are thoughtful and well-crafted. When Ruth attempts to cover for her daughter's calamitous carelessness, Anna's reply rings out with painful clarity: "You don't want to help me...you want me to forgive you." On the lighter end, when Robert harangues Rona, then inquires about their own failed relationship, she swiftly reminds him: "We broke up because you're always on my tits!" The movie doesn't want for candor.
Veterans of emotionally volatile material, Rose (The Sweet Hereafter) and Volter (The Double Life of Veronique) do much to maintain a sense of gravity among these scattershot stories. It also helps that Podeswa has developed the lost child to represent a symbol of the other characters' quests for true feeling. The Five Senses probably won't satisfy your own five senses, but it may at least remind you to go outside, taste a friend, sniff the ice-cream truck, and listen to a flower.

Keywords: New Year, Happy New Year, New Years Eve, conversion, born again, reborn, Deacon Keith Fournier
CHESAPEAKE, Va. (Catholic Online) - It began on Monday when a friend from Japan E mailed to wish me a Happy New Year. With the differing time zones, the celebrations are staggered around the globe as we welcome the end of one calendar year and the beginning of a new one. The manner of celebrating may differ, but we all have a common hope, the desire to start over, to begin again.
Every New Year I read articles about the efficacy of New Year's Resolutions. However, the fact remains, we all make them. The experience is universal. The question is why? I suggest that they reveal something of our deepest longing.
Nations use different calendars, but the passing of one year to the next is universally marked by a deliberate period of reflection concerning the year that passed and a pledge to begin anew, to change, in the year to come. This is because we all hunger to be made new!
GK Chesterton wrote: "The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year. It is that we should have a new soul and a new nose; new feet, a new backbone, new ears, and new eyes. Unless a particular man made New Year resolutions, he would make no resolutions."
"Unless a man starts afresh about things, he will certainly do nothing effective. Unless a man starts on the strange assumption that he has never existed before, it is quite certain that he will never exist afterwards. Unless a man be born again, he shall by no means enter into the Kingdom of Heaven."
We all want to be better, to live our lives more fully and to love one another more selflessly. As we end one year and look to a new one, we pause to take inventory. In a rare moment of reflection and honest self assessment, we admit our failures. We pledge to learn from them and move toward a better future.
In Little Gidding written by T.S. Eliott we find these often quoted words: "For last year's words belong to last year's language and next year's words await another voice. What we call the beginning is often the end. And to make an end is to make a beginning."
Over the years I have realized that every end truly can become a beginning, for the man or woman who has faith in a living God who invites us to begin again, again and again. He alone makes it possible by sharing His very Life with us. This gift is called grace and through receiving it we become what the Apostle Peter called "Partakers of the Divine Nature".(2 Peter 1:4)
As we repent for the failures of the past year, reflect on the gifts it brought and resolve to do better in the coming year, we are facing the reality of our human condition and our fractured freedom. We know that our resolutions to change often end in failure. We are prone to making wrong choices in daily life. Classical theology speaks of this inclination as "concupiscence".
The Apostle Paul wrote about this experience to the early Christians in Rome in the seventh chapter of his letter: "For I do not do the good I want, but I do the evil I do not want. Now if (I) do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me... Miserable one that I am! Who will deliver me from this mortal body Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord."
Our freedom is a reflection of the Image of God within us. Our ability to choose correctly was fractured by the effects of the first sin. In the words of Blessed John Paul II ("The Splendor of Truth") "freedom itself needs to be set free." Through the Incarnation, the saving Life, Death and Resurrection of Jesus, we are capacitated to live our lives differently. Freedom can be set free. Jesus can make all things new within us and continue His work of making all things new through us.
On the first day of the New Year Catholics celebrate the Feast of the Mother of God. This is no liturgical accident. She who beheld the face of the Savior invites us to hear the words of Jesus Christ, "Behold I make all things new!" (Rev. 21:5) He alone can fulfill the desire at the heart of the new Years celebration. She is the Mother of the New Creation because the One whom she held in her womb is the only One who can make all things new!
I am more grateful every year for the opportunity to attend Holy Mass on New Year's Day and celebrate the Feast of the Mother of God. Mary is the first disciple, the prototype, the symbol of the whole Church. We who are members of the Church are invited to emulate her "Yes" to the invitation of God and make it our own. We are to make a place for Him within us and become bearers of Christ to the world. He alone can make us new.
Millions will utter words on New Years Eve and Day promising to do better. Lists will be compiled - and promises made - to oneself, to others and to God. Sadly, many will not be kept. These words attributed to Mark Twain too often ring true "New Year's Day - now is the accepted time to make your regular annual good resolutions. Next week you can begin paving hell with them as usual."
When I was a young man, I would write my New Years goal list first and then, in a fit of self generated enthusiasm, ask the Lord to bless it! I know better now. I need the light of the Holy Spirit to even comprehend what is needed if I ever hope to change. I now pray first and then, my list has become increasingly simple. Mary's Fiat has become my prayer, "be it done unto me according to your word."
I pray that in the Year of Our Lord, 2013, we may all find the fullness of grace which comes through a living relationship with the One who makes all things new (Rev 21:5), Jesus Christ. There is a universal longing in every human heart to be made new, to begin again, because the Holy Spirit prompts it in every human heart.
In and through Jesus Christ, there is a path to truly being made new. That promise is at the heart of the Gospel, the Good News! St. Paul reminded the Christians in the City of Corinth - and reminds every one of us- "whoever is in Christ is a new creation: the old things have passed away; behold, new things have come." (2 Cor. 5:17)
New Years Eve is a global existential moment, ripe with anticipation and expectations. It invites a spiritually cathartic time of reflection, offers us hope for change and invites us to make choices. In reality, our choices will make us. Let us choose in 2013 to live our lives in, with and for Jesus Christ. That is the waywe can turn resolutions into reality.
St Josemaria Escriva wrote: "For a son of God each day should be an opportunity for renewal, knowing for sure that with the help of grace he will reach the end of the road, which is Love. That is why if you begin and begin again, you are doing well. If you have a will to win, if you struggle, then with God's help you will conquer. There will be no difficulty you cannot overcome.' (St. Jose Maria Escriva, The Forge, 344)

Nice one
you did really good on this. It was well worth the effort.
Wow ha i loved it!
A big congrats goes to all of the animators involved in this wonderful collaboration. This is another one of these great colabs that just wont stop coming into the portal, but them constantly being submitted is a good thing.
The graphics really had its moments and in some clips were really impressive. In others some better drawings and perhaps a little more detail could be used. It seems some fairly new artists put something into this and thats great to see. Collabs are always fun to watch as they have so many different animating styles. Thats alos why i give collabs great style points. This particular one would earn high style points from me anyways because i loved the feel and choice of song. I love that song by the way, its simple awesome to see collabs with songs i absolutley love.There was a solid bit of humour in this as well. Thanks for the smiles!
Anyways since there were some great clips i cant give you guys anything lower than a 4, and i cant give a 5 because some clips needed improvement. The final product was awesome though, best of luck of future submissions! 4/5
still a good song
first time i heard this song was from the movie thers something bout mary
aight i give you no shit
9.0 im ganna give this flash. i didnt really like the song as much as the actual flash i like how the ppls lips moved well with the words and the graphics were tight. i wish you would make another music video with a better song but keep up the creativity and graphics peace
i luv it

Yesterday, I wrote about how a company called Plan B. found out that 71 percent fewer fans showed up on discounted beer night. This surprised me a little bit, but not some readers. From Larry Rascak:Personally I would avoid discount beer night like the plague, simply because I would not want to be at a ballgame (or in the parking lot, or driving home) with the sort of people who would go to a game just to drink a lot of cheap beer. Is this really that big a surprise?

The entire cost of the tie will be donated to the Rally Foundation, which raises awareness and funds for childhood cancer research.

One of the most surprising things about being here in Beijing is the absence of Yao Ming. I thought he'd be everywhere. Sure, he made his name in Shanghai, but I thought he was the pride of China.

Imagine being dominant for 300 years! Anyway, I've come all this way so that I can bring you all the important business stories of the '08 games on the year-out anniversary on Wednesday, August 8 and actually throughout next week on CNBC.
As many of you know, yesterday I called for Nike to dump Michael Vick. They sort of did that minutes ago, when they suspended his contract. My prediction? They'll never reactivate it. It's a really good move. They were never going to use Vick again, so there was no reason to stand by him. I'm not ignorant enough to think that they my writing did anything.
I wandered on to NFLShop.com to do my daily check on everything Michael Vick and I noticed something strange. I couldn't find Michael Vick No. 7 jerseys anywhere. So I called the NFL and asked them why they had made this decision. "We have suspended sales of Vick-related merchandise on our official league e-commerce site, NFLShop.com," said NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy. "This includes Vick jerseys and collectible items such as autographed balls and other memorabilia."
At the end of June, I announced my worst athlete ad contest. I received many entries of athletes in all sorts of ads from my readers, but I really didn't have any trouble picking a winner. Congratulations to reader Joe Gudema who sent me Red Sox closer Jonathan Papelbon doing ads for 125 Auto. Thankfully, it's on YouTube for your viewing pleasure.
When activist organizations ask for a shoe and apparel company to drop athletes before the legal process has seen them through, I usually don't agree. The main reason I stand up for these companies is that it's good for business to ride it out. People forget and if you have an athlete who is acquitted of charges who is a big star, they will prove they can sell again.
As many of you know, I started boycotting my watching of the Tour de France this year because of all the drug scandals. Of course, the scandals have continued. German cyclist Patrik Sinkewitz tested positive for testosterone and was suspended, Alexandre Vinokourov and his team withdrew after he tested positive for blood doping and we're waiting for the suspension one more rider that tested positive.
NBA commissioner David Stern addressed the media today to discuss what the league knows about former NBA referee Tim Donaghy betting on games. This is my live commentary as it happened.
The minor league baseball independent Long Beach Armada is hosting "Michael Vick Animal Awareness Day" on Sunday. Any fan who trades in his or her Michael Vick T-shirt or jersey will get free admission to the game and a donation will be made in their name to a non-profit that helps "inspire a better understanding of dogs." Those shirts and jerseys will be destroyed in some manner, the team says. Fans can also bring their dogs to the game, will be provided a special entrance to the ballpark and sit in a special section of the ballpark.
After watching much of the media look at the wrong data when considering whether NBA referee Tim Donaghy bet on the games he officiated, I've decided to let the cat out of the bag. Folks, you're not going to get anywhere by looking at the point spreads.
Nike has a new statement out, which I have just received. They are suspending the release of the Vick V shoe, which was scheduled to be in stores on Aug. 23. Here is the text: "Nike is concerned by the serious and highly disturbing allegations made against Michael Vick and we consider any cruelty to animals inhumane and abhorrent. We do believe that Michael Vick should be afforded the same due process as any citizen; therefore, we have not terminated our relationship...."
Wherever Kobe Bryant is playing, he'll be wearing Nikes. Sources are telling CNBC that Nike has re-signed the guard to a multi-year extension. The exact length of the deal and the terms are unknown. It is also not clear whether Bryant's contract would vary depending on the market in which he is playing.
Those who know me or have followed my work in recent years know that, besides specializing in sports business, I know niche sports better than anyone in the country does. It started with my love of the competitive eating circuit and carried over to becoming the top handicapper in the country on the National Spelling Bee.Last year, while I was still at ESPN, I gave the betting public the top eight spellers. My No. 3 pick Katherine Close won it all and my other picks fared pretty well. So if you want to know who to root for this year, you have it all here for you.
After an endorsement relationship that lasted 18 months, Prince and American tennis star James Blake are parting ways in what will be a rare case of an athlete leaving a brand voluntarily in the midst of a deal.
Ford has signed Funkmaster Flex -- a popular hip-hop DJ and personality on New York City's Hot 97 radio station -- as a company pitchman for its Ford Flex Expedition, and as host of a new TV show where regular Joes compete in customizing one of the company's SUVs. This is a smart move by Ford for a couple reasons. First, Flex's popularity with younger car buyers can help the company gain some much needed buzz on the new Flex CUV. Second, it's another case of Ford trying to break out with a new approach.

Connecticut lawmakers discuss power plant oversight in wake of deadly explosion By sptest Published: Mar 4 2010 - 1:59pm Subtitle: Kleen Energy plant explosion sparks debate over regulating safety at state utilities Byline: By Edmund H. Mahony -- Mar. 3--HARTFORD -- Key legislators began talking about how to increase oversight of state power plants after learning from a panel of experts Tuesday that no government agency has authority to regulate safety issues at highly complex electricity generators like the Kleen Energy Systems plant in Middletown. Members of the legislature's energy and technology committee appeared stunned when state Sen. John W. Fonfara, D-Hartford, the panel's co-chairman, was met by silence after asking five experts to name the state agency or agencies responsible for enforcing safety measures during the construction and operation of power plants. Fonfara called the silence "deafening." "This is not a good thing to learn," he said. "Most people would believe that when we build a power plant that affects the whole state, one or more state agencies would have oversight. I guess we have some work to do." The energy committee's information meeting Tuesday morning was the legislature's first examination of power plant safety since the Feb. 7 natural gas explosion that killed six and injured 26 1/3 at the Kleen Energy plant in Middletown. By the time the meeting concluded, lawmakers were predicting more hearings and a close examination of safety codes. The Kleen plant was designed to be a highly efficient, $1 billion means of generating electricity through natural-gas and steam turbines. Its owners said it was more than 95 percent complete at the time of the explosion. Preliminary investigation and accounts by witnesses suggest that the explosion occurred when one of several possible ignition sources ignited a cloud of natural gas vented during efforts to purge, or clean, gas lines. Although the Kleen plant explosion was the reason for Tuesday's hearing, Fonfara, the Senate's deputy majority leader, restricted discussion to plant safety in general because the blast continues to be the subject of a criminal investigation by local, state and federal law enforcement agencies. Under questioning by lawmakers, administrators from the state public safety and homeland security departments, the Connecticut Siting Council, the state Department of Public Utility Control and the federal Chemical Safety Board created a regulatory picture that showed a variety of agencies with only peripheral authority over non-nuclear-powered, state electricity generators. Utility regulators said they are responsible for setting consumer electric rates and the inspection of natural gas transmission lines up to the point where they connect with power plants. The state siting council is authorized to consider environmental and quality-of-life issues when locating power plants. Homeland security and emergency services respond to plant disasters. U.S. Chemical Safety Board officers investigate explosions and issue non-binding safety recommendations. State police Col. Thomas Davoren said power plant design and construction is reviewed primarily by local building and fire inspectors from towns where plants are located. Davoren said that the state fire marshal and building inspector can be consulted by local authorities on power plant construction, but that the state police and public safety department have no jurisdiction over power plant operations. 2/3 "I guess the take-away today is not that there is frankly a lack of oversight, but there is a very extensive amount of local, state and federal entities that all have a piece," Kevin M. DelGobbo, chairman of the Department of Public Utility Control, told the lawmakers. The assertion did little to reassure legislators, who seemed shocked by what they suggested was a regulatory vacuum regarding safety issues during power plant construction and operation. State Rep. Matthew Lesser, D-Middletown, said he was "amazed." State Rep. Elizabeth Esty, D-Cheshire, called the level of state regulatory authority "rather breathtaking." Fonfara called Tuesday's energy committee meeting the first step in a safety review that will likely involve the legislature's public safety committee. "We will answer these questions and we will work on this," Fonfara said. Source: The Hartford Courant, Conn.

Sane aims to be fast, small, and reliable file system watcher.
I've been driven to insanity by node filesystem watcher wrappers. Sane aims to be fast, small, and reliable file system watcher. It does that by:
- By default stays away from fs polling because it's very slow and cpu intensive
- Uses
fs.watchby default and sensibly works around the various issues
- Maintains a consistent API across different platforms
- Where
fs.watchis not reliable you have the choice of using the following alternatives:
- the facebook watchman library
- polling
$ npm install sane
How to choose a mode
Don't worry too much about choosing the correct mode upfront because sane maintains the same API across all modes and will be easy to switch.
- If you're only supporting Linux and OS X,
watchmanwould be the most reliable mode
- If you're using node > v0.10.0 use the default mode
- If you're running OS X and you're watching a lot of directories and you're running into https://github.com/joyent/node/issues/5463, use
- If you're in an environment where native file system events aren't available (like Vagrant), you should use polling
- Otherwise, the default mode should work well for you
sane(dir, options)
Watches a directory and all it's descendant directories for changes, deletions, and additions on files and directories.
var watcher = sane'path/to/dir' glob: '**/*.js' '**/*.css';watcheron'ready' console.log'ready' ;watcheron'change' console.log'file changed' filepath; ;watcheron'add' console.log'file added' filepath; ;watcheron'delete' console.log'file deleted' filepath; ;// close watcherclose;
glob: a single string glob pattern or an array of them.
poll: puts the watcher in polling mode. Under the hood that means
watchman: makes the watcher use watchman
dot: enables watching files/directories that start with a dot.
For the glob pattern documentation, see minimatch.
If you choose to use
watchman you'll have to install watchman yourself).
sane.NodeWatcher(dir, options)
The default watcher class. Uses
fs.watch under the hood, and takes the same options as
sane(options, dir).
sane.WatchmanWatcher(dir, options)
The watchman watcher class. Takes the same options as
sane(options, dir).
sane.PollWatcher(dir, options)
The polling watcher class. Takes the same options as
sane(options, dir) with the addition of:
- interval: indicates how often the files should be polled. (passed to fs.watchFile)
Stops watching.
sane.{Node|Watchman|Poll}Watcher events
Emits the following events:
All events are passed the file/dir path relative to the root directory
readywhen the program is ready to detect events in the directory
changewhen a file changes
addwhen a file or directory has been added
deletewhen a file or directory has been deleted

Is it just me, or has this winter been really bad on waistlines across New England? We've now had four weeks straight of massive once-a-week snow storms, and I know I'm not the only one who is ready to head south and never come back. Since that isn't exactly an option, and going outdoors when it's -10 and/or there are snow drifts up to my forehead isn't exactly appealing, that leaves few options for how to pass the time. Read, work, eat, watch TV, work, bake, eat, read more, eat more, watch a movie, work, bake, eat, repeat. Are you picking up what I'm putting down? SO MUCH FOOD. And lazyness. And couch time. And kitty cuddles (my personal favorite). (more…)
Last weekend was one of those times when nothing was going my way. I had a really fun couple of days planned and was super psyched come Friday evening, but by midday Sunday I found myself moping in bed with a great pout going. By no fault of mine, or anyone else's really, all of my carefully laid plans dissolved, and I ended up spending hours curled up in bed with my kitties and a new book. In many instances that'd have been a great use of a day, but last weekend it just felt like a waste. (more…)
The first pumpkin recipe of the season is always a big one for me. Embracing pumpkin means embracing fall wholeheartedly, bringing cold-weather clothes out of storage, wearing slippers around the house, and contemplating a switch back to hot coffee in the mornings (don't worry, that one still hasn't happened yet… Dunkin iced all the way!). But honestly, this pumpkin recipe made the transition a breeze — this is easily one of the best quick bread recipes I have ever made. I realize that as a baking blogger, I rarely post a recipe that I don't really enjoy, but this bread just takes things to a whole new level. It's truly fall magic. (more…)
I was recently told by someone that "pumpkin is acceptable [only] until December 1st" – which means I'm in trouble because December 1st has come and gone, and I still have some pumpkin recipes to share with you! The problem with getting so backed up with this blog is that I have an arsenal of recipes to share, but they are fast becoming irrelevant! I know the official pumpkin season has mostly passed, but I am still dying to share these last couple of recipes with you – so bear with me, please?! I promise, it'll be worth it. Plus – who of us doesn't still have a can or two of pumpkin laying around? (more…)
I'm back! It took me longer to get this post written and posted than I had hope, but here it is! I've spent countless hours this past week searching for a wedding venue, so baking and blogging has taken a back seat. Hopefully as wedding planning progresses, I can balance priorities better! At any rate, today's post is not one of my best – in fact, it's kind of a disaster! Read on (more…)
You read right… I have another Banana Bread recipe to share today. I know I've acknowledged my obsession before, and honestly… this probably won't be the last time. I just love banana bread, what can I say?! This post has been sitting in my drafts for ohhh, about 4 months. That is not a joke. Why? Because I figured you'd never come back here to read this blog if I shared yet ANOTHER banana bread recipe! But then I thought, what's one more? And I'm sure I'll use that same logic again the next time I try to share a banana bread recipe with you… (more…)
I know, I know, I told you I'm eating gluten again, yet I'm sharing another gluten-free recipe. This is a GOOD ONE though, too good to leave out of the blogosphere, so I'm sharing it with you today. I promise, gluten makes it's grand re-entrance soon!
In case you hadn't noticed, I really love banana bread. I've shared it plenty of times on the blog, and have had to stop myself from sharing it more. My banana bread obsession began back when I was a little girl. We always went to the same family friend's house on New Years day for a big party, and someone (who it was, I never found out) always brought the same banana bread. I was OBSESSED with it, so much so that I would linger by the table for much of the party, and take piece after piece until I couldn't eat anymore. Sometimes when you eat so much of something, you start to get sick of it, but banana bread and I will NEVER part. (more…)
