Has anyone read this?? I am very interested in reading it. Would love any feedback.
LOVED IT! One of my favorites :-) It's a great story. Very human, sad and quite scary. It's basically a reporter interviewing survivors of the great war. Like the above post, Brad Pitt is supposed to play the reporter in the upcoming film. And hey...if you are into Zombies..check this out coming this October (bad video, leaked): The Walking Dead Season 1 Trailer - MovieWeb.com
But back to the topic. I am currently reading "Helmet for my Pillow" by Robert Leckie and finished "With the Old Breed" by E.B. Sledge
I also read World War Z and Loved IT! :D It's a great satire that works largely because it's well written and told in a matter of fact like style.

Perl Threads
I'm new to threading in perl and I need some advice/help/sample code.
I basically want to loop for a while and spawn say 5 threads each doing something. As a thread ends I want to check it's exit status and spawn the thread again. Now I want to exit the loop after a period of time but I also want the threads to finish completely before exiting the loop. I've looked into some thread pool and queue stuff but I'm still unsure as to what will suit my needs in this case. Anybody got any ideas? - Cristov |

Hotel del Lago is situated right near the oil filled lake of Maracaibo that will provide you with wonderful views of the giant lake or the sprawling city. Take advantage of the wonderful buffet breakfast they serve every morning. I recommend the arepas con todo (arepas with everything)!

Pyotr Shirshov
Pyotr Petrovich Shirshov (Russian: Пётр Петрович Ширшов) (December 25 (O.S. December 12), 1905, Ekaterinoslav (today Dnipropetrovsk, Ukraine) - February 17, 1953, Moscow) was a Russian Soviet oceanographer, hydrobiologist, polar explorer, statesman, academician (1939), and Hero of the Soviet Union (1938).
Pyotr Shirshov graduated from the Odessa Public Education Institute in 1929. In 1929-1932, he was a researcher at the Botanical Garden of the Soviet Academy of Sciences. In 1932-1936, Pyotr Shirshov was employed as a researcher at the All-Union Arctic Institute. He participated in numerous Arctic expeditions, including the ones on icebreakers Sibiryakov (1932) and Chelyuskin and a drifting ice station North Pole-1 (1937-1938).1 In 1942-1948, Pyotr Shirshov was People's Commissar (later Minister) of the Soviet Maritime Fleet. In 1946-1953, he headed the Institute of Oceanology of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, which he had established himself. In 1946-1950, Pyotr Shirshov chaired the Pacific Ocean Science Committee.
Pyotr Shirshov authored numerous works dealing with his research on plankton in polar regions. He is known to have proven the fallacy of the hypothesis that there is no life in high latitudes of the Arctic Ocean. Pyotr Shirshov was awarded three Orders of Lenin, four other orders, and several medals. A bay in the Franz Josef Land, an underwater range in the Bering Sea, and Shirshov Institute of Oceanology bear Pyotr Shirshov's name.

Q: i had my first acupuncture session and the therapist put the needles through my clothes is this the proper practice? The needles went into my buttock and leg.
A: The short answer is 'no'.
This question was raised a very long time ago when a member queried whether it was acceptable to needle through by thin fabric when treating patients whose religious or ciltural sensitivities made it impossible for them to uncover areas of the body which the practitioner felt needed to be needled. The categorical advice was not to do this. Either the practitioner must find other ways of treating the problems through the use of available points, which can often be done, or the patient must be referred on to a practitioner in front of whom the removal of some clothing is acceptable.
The possibilities for infection or the accidental contamination of the puncture site with foreign bodies are so obvious that the prohibition is self-evident, i.e. one would never expect to have to gather evidence to support it.
If your practitioner has done this with you it is fair to assume that this is a standard practice, and it is important that they cease and desist immediately. If he or she belongs to a professional association, it would be a good idea to approach them with this information. Even if you chose not to make a formal complaint we are confident that they would instruct the member not to do this again on pain of removal from the Register if they failed to comply. If this person is a BAcC member, you need to contact our Ethics Secretary on 0208 735 1205 for further advice. If the practitioner does not appear to belong to a professional body then a word with the Local Authority Environmental Health Department is merited.
We should reassure you by saying that the chances of an infection are remote, but even though they are remote, the treatment is nowhere near as safe as that undertaken with proper preparation and precautions.
Q: I've suffered from an accident a couple of months ago. I broke a couple of ribs, they've all healed except one. I'm in a lot of pain and unable to sleep properly and sit still for long. Can acupuncture help? What does it involve?
A: Two months is certainly a long time to be suffering the after effects of a broken rib. As we are sure you know already, the management of broken ribs is very conservative, mainly involving a routine of pain relief and avoidance of binding or exercising, and the fractures heal within two to four weeks. If the pain continues, you will almost certainly be prescribed, or advised to use, more painkillers in the expectation that the pain will eventually resolve.
From a Chinese medicine point of view, the use of acupuncture for pain relief is well-documented and probably the first major use which people started to investigate as acupuncture treatment became more prevalent in the 1970s. Theories like the 'Pain Gate' Theory, where it was assumed that the needles over-rode pain signals in the brain, were very popular, and even westerm medicine took on board the fact that endorphin and enkephalin levels (the body's own painkillers) appeared to rise after treatment. However, from our perspective we are looking more at the flow of energy, called 'qi' in Chinese thought, which is disturbed by injury and can sometimes remain disturbed after the physical injury appears to have healed.
Re-instating the flow can often involve needles applied locally to the problem in conjunction with needles some distance away, and the practitioner will always be looking at the overall picture to see if there is any underlying reason why the energy has not successfully been restored in the affected area. If someone is quite depleted, for example, a small blockage may persist because the system is too weak to cope with proper recovery.
Naturally, when treatment is administered on the thorax near the ribs, the needles are inserted to a very superficial depth and always obliquely to avoid going anywhere near the lungs. Pneumothoraxes are rare, and a well-trained and qualified practitioner will always make sure that they take no risks. Needles are usually left in for a short time and often manipulated gently to encourage the flow to re-commence.
The best advice we can give is to visit a BAcC member local to you for a face to face assessment of whether they think that acupuncture treatment may be of benefit. We are also aware that many osteopaths who use cranial osteopathy have a basis for understanding the same phenomenon, the continuation of pain after the physica injury has healed, and this may be another option to consider. There are a number of other therapies - cranio-sacral therapy, zero balancing - which also have ways of dealing with post-traumatic pain, but we aren;t really in a position to recommend anything specific because the evidence base is not that well-established.
For acupuncture treatment, however, there is a very considerable evidence base in both eastern and western versions of acupuncture that acupuncture treatment can offer pain relief, and the major issue is how much relief and how sustainable. Clearly if something offers only a day or so of relief on each occasion and then the condition reverts, it may be worth drawing a line in the sand and trying something different. Change should be sustainable and incremental, unless the pain is so severe that any relief is welcome. The only issue here is a financial one, and we have known patients with large resources to continue to have treatment with short-lived benefits because the financial element is not an issue. For most of us, though, it is, and that has to be taken into account.
Hopefully, however, the treatment you choose to have will accelerate your recovery and sidestep some of these concerns.
We drew up a review paper some years ago
which summarises the use of acupuncture treatment for a number of substance abuse problems, and as you can see in the paper, the evidence for the use of acupuncture is relatively positive, although the trials undertaken are often methodologically flawed and rather small to be used as a basis for definitive statements. The most recent systematic review in 2009 reached this conclusion, and nothing significant has been published more recently to change this view.
However, although mainstream acupuncture treatment is used to deal with the problems of alcoholism, there are a great many projects which use a more limited form of acupuncture, ear acupuncture or auricular acupuncture as it is often known. There are two very large national groups, NADA-UK ( http://www.nadauk.com/) and SMART-UK (http://www.smart-uk.com/) whose members offer the five-point protocol and other formula treatments for helping people to deal with the problems of alcohol, and details of where practitioners can be found are on both websites. A great deal of their work is done in drop-in facilities, and some provide additional support and counselling as a part of the service.
There are also a substantial number of practitioners who belong to the Microsystems Acupuncture Regulatory Working Group which is registered with the PSA-accredited Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council. This group includes a number of organisations whose members offer more sophisticated auricular treatment than simple protocols, and their details can be found here (http://www.macrwg.org/).
This does not mean that the ordinary BAcC member does not treat people with alcohol problems, and many do to great effect. Our experience, however, is that the group setting of the detox projects often adds considerable value to the treatment through the peer pressure and encouragement which abounds. It may still be worthwhile seeking the advice of a local BAcC member, however. There are huge variations in the experience of alcoholism, from falling down drunk to a simple realisation that the end of work day drink is becoming a necessity rather than a treat, and our members may well be able to provide exactly what someone needs.
Q: Please could you tell me what the qualification "MAcS" stands for and what standing it has in Britain?
A: As far as we are aware, the designatory letters 'MAcS' are used by only one UK acupuncture body, the Acupuncture Society. Details of the different varieties of membership of this body can be found here:
As far as standing is concerned, there is no statutory regulation of acupuncture in the UK, so all designatory letters serve only to identify that a practitioner belongs to a professional body to which they are accountable for their professional conduct and safe practice. These also generally offer a guarantee of professional indemnity insurance cover, either through the association or as a condition of continuing membership.
The only scheme which kitemarks standards for voluntary registers is the Professional Standards Authority's Assured Voluntary Register scheme. The BAcC was one of the first professional bodies to meet their exacting requirements and members of the BAcC are allowed to use the PSA's kitemark on their promotional material.
Q: I am writing with a query regarding my husband. He had a vasectomy in August and unfortunately, due to complications during the procedure, has suffered a trapped nerve on one side which is still painful at certain times. He has been referred to a consultant and been told there is no corrective procedure for this and he would just have to make use of long term pain relief, but he does not want to take long term medication. We are wondering if acupuncture would be able to relieve the pain from this trapped nerve and, if so, what would be involved?
Treatment would involve either needles and moxibustion, the use of a burning Chinese herb, and your husband can rest assured that needles do not have to ber applied locally to achieve an effect, or no-one would ever seek help with haemorrhoids ever again. The majority of points used in early sessions lie on the lower arm and lower leg, with a number of more powerful ones on the trunk and back.
shows. Indeed, much of the early research into acupuncture in the West was focused on this area after seeing some of the film of operations in the East performed under acupuncture and demonstrations of dramatic reductions in pain that people appeared to experience from a few needles. Of course, the main western preoccupation was to make sense of this in terms of neurotransmitter chemicals or natural painkillers like endorphins and enkephalins, rather than understanding it as a reinstatement of the proper flow of energy, or 'qi' in an area, but we were grateful anyway to see acupuncture being taken more seriously.
A great deal depends on how your husband's nerve is trapped. If there is impingement of the nerve a great deal depends on whether there is post-operative inflammation in the surrounding tissue which treatment may be able to help to reduce, thus breaking the cycle of pain, or whether the operation has simply caused the nerve to be jammed between physical structures where change is less likely. There is no doubt that acupuncture treatment may well be able to achieve some pain relief, and the main issue is usually how much and how sustainable that change is.
Usually there is no way of predicting how someone will respond in circumstances like this, and most practitioners will probably say that the best way is to have a couple of sessions to allow them to assess the viability of treatment, based both on feedback from the patient and from signs and symptoms which they themselves interpret. In any event there should be some reaction within three to four sessions, and a responsible practitioner will draw a line in the sand then if the patient is not making progress, however pleasant the actual experience of treatment may be.
The best advice we can give is that you visit a BAcC member local to you and seek a face to face assessment of whether they think acupuncture treatment may be beneficial. There are a number of ways in which they cam make this assessment and we are confident that they will give you an honest view.

Nathaniel Simms testified for second day in South Capitol Street slayings
A contrite defendant in the South Capitol Street murder trial in D.C. Superior court took the stand for a second day Thursday.
Self-confessed Nathaniel Simms testified against his former friends and described what led up to the March 30, 2010 massacre on South Capitol Street. The slayings, which took place over about a week, left five people dead.
There are now five defendants on trial for the slayings.
Simms testified that after the defendants and siblings Orlando and Sanquan Carter allegedly murdered Jordan Howe, 20, while shooting into a crowd over a missing bracelet, within hours police arrested Sanquan Carter.
But brother Orlando Carter was back at their street hangout at 6th and Chesapeake SE.
According to Simms testimony, one of Howe's associates came upon Orlando Carter as he stood in front of this barber shop trying to shoot him in the head. Twice the gun misfired, but the third time it discharged.
One bullet grazed Orlando Carter's head, another hit him in the shoulder. He survived. Simms testified Orlando Carter said to him: "Them (obscenity) tried to do me. It's all good because we going to (obscenity) that funeral up."
Simms said the alleged plotters who lived or sold drugs in this southeast neighborhood and busied themselves massing weapons, ammo, preparing to shoot at random mourners leaving Jordan Howe's funeral at St. Augustine's Catholic church in northwest. But Simms said everyone's credit was so bad, they couldn't rent a get-away van.
Howe's father called that divine intervention:
When they managed to get a van later that day, authorities say the defendants targeted a group of Howe's friends who'd come back to the SE neighborhood. Four were killed that night and six wounded.

Published by Houghton Miflin Harcourt
360p, color, hardcover, 7"x9.5"
This series needs to be put to bed-or maybe it's just putting me to sleep. Year after year. it's like trying to use the Billboard Top 40 to get excited about music: even if all the components are great, stringing them all together into this of "Best American Comics" sampler makes them all seem incredibly tired and stale. Françoise Mouly doesn't take many risks this installment: mostly excerpted from widely available graphic novels by tried-and-true names, this volume (like the volumes before it) reads like an unsatisfying book trailer rather than placing exciting work in a delighting context. It does however include one of Gary Panter's $15.00 eight-page minicomics, which makes up for over half of the cover price and I'm sure there's an extra ten bux worth of goodness in here as well. -EF

LA health groups sue Insurance Commissioner over Hurricane Isaac action
Shreveport Times / Associated Press, September 19, 2012
Two healthcare groups have filed a lawsuit against Insurance Commissioner Jim Donelon, over an insurance coverage change he made after Hurricane Isaac. The lawsuit by the Louisiana State Medical Society and the Louisiana Hospital Association was filed in Baton Rouge district court late Monday, challenging an emergency rule Donelon issued on Sept. 4. The emergency rule affected health insurance policies in 23 parishes. It required that emergency out-of-network medical care be treated like an in-network claim, a move that eliminates higher charges for patients and sidesteps existing contracts between health providers and insurers.

Quite good for a sister-act that started out in a family band that included their parents, Mum on lead vocals and Dad on bass, naturally.After the girls finished school, they re-grouped, excluding the parents (although they've been seen on stage with them later on) and released their first EP. Brimming full with their signature mix of Fleetwood Mac sounds and SoCal breeziness, with a dash of R&B thrown in for good measure, the perfect summer soundtrack.

If you are a single person under the age of 35 your Housing Benefit will be restricted to the average rent value of a single room with shared use of kitchen, bathroom and living room. Therefore if Housing Benefit does not cover your full rental charge you must make arrangements with your landlord to ensure any rent shortfall is paid.
This single room restriction will not apply if you fall into one of the following groups:
- Your landlord is a Housing Association - however your rent could still be restricted if it is unreasonably high
- You have a child
- You have a non-dependant in your household
- You are aged under 22 and were formally in care or in accommodation provided by Social Services under The Children's Act 1989
- You are disabled (qualifying for the severe disability premium)
- You live in a hostel
More information regarding these rules and the changes that came into effect from 1 January 2012 can be found in our Changes for people aged under 35 leaflet

| Posted over 5 years ago Affordable health insurance? There is no such thing. Are you in school? Sometimes the schools will offer insurance for students. It is rather inexpensive but not good for much unless it is a big health catastrophe. Big deductibles and covers no yearly check ups or anything like that. No prescription coverage, It is better than nothing. |

| Posted over 5 years ago I have insurance for the last 12 years. There was a time when I didnt have insurance. My ex-husband got out of the military and they offered us insurance at a Corba rate. HOLY COW! that was so expensive. The rate was $750 a month for the family. We tried to pay is very month but evently we just couldnt afford it, since I was the only one working and we needed to pay rent and eat. But our son was really sick since birth and we needed insurance so I had to go to the state for insurance for our children. That was not my finest moment. But witout insurance his medical care was outrageous. I then land a job that was paying great and had insurance. I called the state and let them know that I no longer needed it. The was a good day. I hope that I never have to do that agian. |

| Posted over 5 years ago I've always had insurance and hopefully will. I am going to be changing jobs next month and continue my current insurance through cobra. For me and my daughter they told me it will be 625.36. I thought that was unbelieveable. I call BCBS about a private policy and can get a policy for me and my daughter for 469.99. That's $155. cheaper and the coverage is really a little better with exception of the deductable. When my son became unemployeed last October, I took out a private policy on him, b/c I just couldnt let him go without insurance. I honestly don't see how be can manage without medical insurance. |

I don't go see Drs but it is nice to know we have it when needed. Please don't pay any attention to my misspelled words or typos. Sorry I'll try harder next time. |

| Posted over 5 years ago The insurance plan I have now, is restricted. When I say restricted, I mean, I can only use it a one heathcare facility. I have to pay a 30 dollar co-payment with each visit, which only covers me in a event of urgent care, but doesn't cover my medications, ER care, are outpatient, the only services that are covered a hundred percent covered without a co-payment is my OB_GYN visits, thats it, everthing that is outpatient, I will have to pay out of pocket. So I am most definetally, looking for better healthcare, or free healthcare, without any restrictions. I am a proud mother of three beautiful daughter. I currently live in Los Angeles California. I've worked as a heathcare provider for almost 10 years. I am curently in school to pursue my MSN in nursing, and wants to work as a pediactric nurse, in public health. |

| Posted over 5 years ago I have been without insurance when I worked this temp job from 1995 to 1999. But there was a time when my son was 3 yrs old and he didnt have any insurance and when I finally did find him some it was so expensive I kept lapsing on it. Thank goodness he is very healthy and only had to go to the doctor for well baby check ups and for shots I took him to the local clinic for $10. |

| Posted over 5 years ago SInce being gainfully employed for the last 14 years, I've not been without insurance. I too was a recipient of government provided health insurance while in school, but only because I had my son. He was healthy for the most part (chronic ear infections resulting in tubes), thank goodness, but I can't imagine if I'd had nothing at all. Believe you me, I walked out of the medicaid application office in tears. Growing up on that kind of program made it most difficult for me to swallow my pride and ask for help. The case worker I got make me feel like absolute dirt because she rolled her eyes and kind of huffed when I told her that I was only applying for the time it took me to get through nursing school...I suppose she thought that I'd be a lifer on the system...now I can understand why though. The good thing is, if I lost my job for any reason, my husband can also carry the insurance...I consider myself very fortunate as I know that there are a number of people out there who don't have such a luxury. Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, worn out and screaming "Woo-hoo"!!! |

| Posted over 5 years ago I grew up on state insurance because my mom was a single parent and her job did not allow her to be able to afford coverage for me and my brother. While it was better then no insurance it was not a very good thing in retrospect. It did allow us to get care when we needed it, however there were certain things it lacked on, such as using lower quality supplies (esp.dental). While my children were growing up I also had state insurance for them. I had a piece of mind that I could take them to a doctor anytime they needed one. Now I have insurance through my work.... I am having a wake up call. Now there are co-pays for everything and heaven forbid I should need a new pair of glasses or any tests run before the insurance company deems it necesary......... If I drop down to part time I will lose my insurance all together unless I pay big bucks myself for it. I also have Aflac coverage to help with any big costs should anything major go wrong and I am not able to work for an extended time. I had a co=worker who this happened to and she lost nearly everything she owned just to get her health back..... You know life sure is GOOD in this here place called USA......... |

| Posted over 5 years ago DaMomb_ being a single parent of 3 small kids, I too was on government aided health insurance while I attended nursing school. When I graduated and found my first job as a nurse, I was terrified that I wouldn't be able to afford the same kind of insurance for my kids. I work part-time now but get my insurance through my husband's employment. My oldest son presently does not have insurance. It's scarey! |

| Posted over 5 years ago I had health insurance prior to going to nursing school. Once in school I did not work enough hours to keep it going. I got some insurance through the school which was 450$ a semester and was not good. So someone here told me to go to the national student nurses association because they offer discounts to the nursing students that join the association. I now have better insurance than what the school could offer and it is reasonable. But it has a huge deductible. Hopefully I wont need to use it much until I am done with school in another year! I know people who do not have insurance and will not go to the doctor even when something is wrong. And also someone who did not have insurance and was injured with hip/leg injuries while helping a neighbor cut down a tree. He had declare bankruptcy because he could not afford the hospital bills. He had complications and was in the hospital for 3 weeks. So not having insurance is financially devistating. |

| Posted over 5 years ago Since I still live at home and still go to school, my dad's job insures me. He has Aetna and let me tell you it's like PREHISTORIC Health Insurance. For a family of 4, he pays over $600 a month and the coverage is crap! To have 100% coverage you need to first meet a $10,000 deductible. This worked out real well last summer when I was in the hospital for almost 30 days with my DVT and PE. My parents had to put out $10,000 and then the rest of my medical bills were paid at 100%. My total hospital bills were over $450,000. Insane! I hope that once I graduate and get employed, I'll get some good insurance of my own. My dad is currently looking for a new job just because these benefits suck. What a shame that this is happening in America....where foreigners and others get healthcare for FREE! |

| Posted over 5 years ago My parents were paying $600 a month for my mom's insurance that covered nothing. She ended up paying out of their pocket for preventative care. Awful, something does need to be done but the thought of our government being involved scares me greatly. Please don't pay any attention to my misspelled words or typos. Sorry I'll try harder next time. |

| Posted over 5 years ago Hey you know I watched a movie about our health care versus care in places like Canada and England and France. It is called Sicko by Micheal Moore. No, I am not really a great fan of his work however it does really get you to thinking. His work is subject of some debates, however once you take into consideration that he is showing the extreme cases and put that into perspective you can make your own judgement about what he is trying to bring to light. |

| Posted over 5 years ago I too am not a FAN of Michael Moore but I would love to see Sicko and hear his reports. American health insurance is very sad. He can take his "Farienheight 911" and stick it where the moon doesn't shine. |

| Posted over 5 years ago cdnurse says ... Yes this show does bring to light what we as nurses already are tooo very familiar with. People who are not around the healthcare field everyday will probably have a hard time really believing it. I should try to watch 911 again and look at in a different perspective. talk to poeple in that field about it and see if what he is trying to bring to light really is true...... Sometimes the truth is just to shocking for poeple to accept...... another lesson to be learned.... right cdnurse..... |

| Posted over 5 years ago My husband and I currently do not have health insurance... we make too much money to qualify for government assistance, but not enough to pay expenses out of pocket. I'm terrified that one of us will hurt ourselves badly or come down with an illness; and at this point, if we ever got pregnant, we would not be able to keep it in good conscience. It weighs a lot on my mind. |

| Posted over 5 years ago I don't have health insurance. I have also suffered serious financial setbacks because of it. I hate insurance companies...still don't trust the gov't though. I trust the admited greed of an insurance company over the supposed altruism of the political elite any day. At least the insurance company is honest that they don't care about whats best for you. |

| Posted over 5 years ago I am getting ready to take on some PRN jobs (pay is so much better) however, I will lose my insurance. I am uninsurable by individual insurance since I was treated for depression at one time. I am going to end up just taking my chances until one of the PRN positions could turn into a full time. Luckily, my husband is covered under Medicare or else I would not be able to leave a beginning to become intolerable job. I contacted a company that has a program for unisurables but my gosh, $500 per month and a $5000 deductible (your meds go toward the deductible) seems a little steep. It seems to me that with as many nurses that are uninsured, there should be a way that someone could get a pool of nurses and get a group rate just for them and their families. Maybe that is something I could do in my free time. Oh, I forgot, I don't have any free time. |

| Posted over 5 years ago I've always carried health care insurance....over the last 25 years since I was 18. The best was military tri-care, I had a fall with a broken arm, and no deductable, and no co-pay. The worst was an HMO in NC. I paid $400 for the birth of my son, that was a precipitous unattended delivery, the hospital bill was $1600 and my insurance had an agreement with the hospital to pay $2500 per delivery, but through some loophole, I had to pay 25% of the bill...since that was my co-pay for hospitalization. I even appealed it, and had to pay, so the hospital was paid almost $3000 for a deliveryt that only cost $1600...I honestly don't even know how that is legal. But I was told that my part of the HMO 'contract' made me responsible for 25% of the bill. In one place in NC, my husband's employer wanted $220 a week for family health insurance...that's about $900 a month. Needless to say we did something else. Now, that I'm employed by a large hospital, I have fairly resonable healthcare, at about $350 a month for the family, with decent deductables. I had a pt last month that was in an accident. She was a Canadian. She was amazed at how much we pay in this country. She said for elective procedures there is a wait. But otherwise for emergency care, or ugent care the system works good. She said that she was glad that she was a Canadian, and wouldn't want to be a U.S. Citizen. |

| Posted over 5 years ago Isn't it amazing that we as health care professionals working in hospital settings and such and we have no health care?????? Crazy........ Here we are taking care of sick people, getting sick sometimes ourselves as a result and we have no recourse to take........ I just find this situation to sickening to fathom............. I guess I am one of the few who should count my blessings that where I work I have the insurance I do..... Of course if I get hurt outside of this area I basically have no coverage......... |

| Posted over 5 years ago My husband and I got married beginning of august, the end of august found out he got a blood clot behind his right knee. He had thought the pain was from a weight training injury for 3 whole weeks prior untill he woke up one morning and was in so much pain he couldnt walk on it. Thank God we went to the ED and they knew what it was! Anyway he lost his job in November and was out of work until Feb. During this time we could not afford to get cobra to pick up his old insurance and my employer would not offer to put him on mine. His doctor kept him on warfin and required him to come in for his blood tests every 2 weeks and then once a month. Of course we got bills. THis was such a hard time but things are better. I am very thankful that we now have insurance through my wonderful employer! Losing insurance is such a scary thing to go through. Until you really need to use you never know how important it is. My husbands blood clot is finally gone after 12months. He is no longer on warfin. yay! |

| Posted over 5 years ago When I was in college I went for a little bit without health insurance. I finally got some through North Texas, however it wasn't the best program and wanted you to see on campus doctors..I wasn't all about that. I am lucky to say that my husband is Military so I won't lose my insurance anytime soon.... Speaking from a benefits person at my employer, COBRA is some serious money....sometimes it is better to be a self pay patient and pay your bills then to go on COBRA...unless our plan just sucks! |

During the year we tasted hundreds of wines priced below $12, and here are the best. The further you go down the list, the more bang for the buck. Grab the current release, if you can't locate the vintage listed...because these are from steady, reliable producers.
1. It's interesting that some of the best types of wine are not on the list, because all those we could recommend cost more than $12. Missing are Viognier, Pinot Noir and Port wines, among others. Also, while they came close, no Chilean or Australian bottles made the cut, as their prices slide upward. A few years ago, Australia did very well as it was breaking into the U.S.A. market with low prices. 2. Going down the list the first eight were from California. But, of the last nine, five were from outside the state, one from France, two from Argentina and two from Washington State. 3. Our Best-Buy Winery of 2001? Beringer won two spots. But the owner of Montevina also owns Trinity Oaks and Sutter Home... hence, boasting four top bottles, our winning budget-saving winegrower is the Trinchero family!

Continually provide both hot and cold gluten-free and allergen-free options in dining hall food lines. Allow students to pre-order allergen-free meals. Provide a dedicated space in the main dining hall to store and prepare gluten-free and allergen-free foods and to avoid cross-contamination.
Can you believe it? I've been writing this column about digital marketing in higher education for seven years.
When we entered college, the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 was already in place—guaranteeing access to K12 education regardless of race, ethnicity, or ability.
To avoid student loan pitfalls and misconceptions, NASFAA recommends administrators ensure students know:
Feedback from private student loan borrowers reveals they hold a host of common misconceptions about their loans.
Could the admission of Grand Canyon University (Ariz.) into the Western Athletic Conference help change the perception of for-profits among the higher education community?
As a consultant to schools on programming for students with autism, I'm used to proposing ideas and hearing, "Sounds great, but sorry, we can't do that." Good intentions sometimes can't overcome limitations in resources.
It's really no surprise that today's technology-savvy generation is challenging elements of the traditional college recruitment process.
While social media is a great way to share news with family and friends, students don't always realize the implications for their ability to secure jobs in the future.
Admissions counselors are busy folks with some pretty important decisions to make, so it's no wonder colleges and universities are looking for ways to make their lives a little more efficient.
The American Council on Education (ACE) has announced a research effort examining the academic potential of massive open online courses (MOOCs), in which it will evaluate select Coursera courses for college credit.
Any Texan will tell you that yes, size really does matter, especially in the expansive Lone Star State, where they tend to do most things big—and take pride in it.
Sometimes, though, that bigness causes problems.
Five years ago, Polk State College (Fla.) struggled to manually process 800 graduation applications each year. Students first completed a paper graduation application.
With the cost of a college education very much in the public eye, schools are taking great care to articulate the financial aid options they offer.

Last month I wrote about an article about the potential advance, or rather the lack of next-generation leaps in MMO gaming. After recently having the opportunity to sink some serious time into the Wii U I got to thinking. Why hasn't the PC taken any serious leaps outside of typical hardware? Sure we're used to seeing new processors and graphics cards released on a regular basis, each with more digits in the name than the last, and storage has become so cheap that everyone's boasting about the size of their package.
The console generations have taken massive leaps in recent years. The Wii introduced motion control into the average household and Microsoft and Sony followed up with Kinect and Move respectively. This generation we've seen Nintendo introduce a whole new depth of play with the Wii U controller and rumors regarding next-generation Kinect and Move also boast some rather impressive potential. Microsoft's Illumiroom could also help to reinvent the way we enjoy computer games, but this is still very much nothing more than a rumor for this generation.
But what about PC gamers? Sure we've got access to control pads and joysticks with more buttons than the cockpit of an F-15 Fighter Jet but when was the last time we got a real evolution in add-ons and peripherals? I'm not talking about glasses aimed at reducing eye fatigue and improving reaction speeds, but something truly next-generation.
I'm merely a writer so I wouldn't attempt to conjure ideas on exactly what they could do with the PC but I do find myself curious as to why they haven't done anything. Maybe it's because PC's have such a variety of hardware and software configurations, or maybe it's because they still see a PC as a tool over that of a gaming machine.
One things for sure, PC's are just as capable as consoles and they're popular in their own right. We've got a small ray of hope with touch-screens and whatnot but they haven't really been introduced into mainstream gaming. What kind of device or technology would you like to see enhance the next-generation of PC gaming?
