NASHVILLE -- Tennesseans will be able to legally buy limited amounts of wine from out-of-state wineries for shipment here under a bill that won final legislative approval Thursday.
Efforts to pass similar legislation failed for several years in Tennessee, but the direct-shipping wine bill now on its way to Gov. Phil Bredesen is the first major crack in a statutory wall of protection built around Tennessee's liquor wholesalers and retailers decades ago.
A three-year-old legislative effort to legalize wine sales in grocery stores was killed for this year's legislative session last month by the heavy lobbying opposition of liquor retailers and wholesalers.
The governor is expected to sign the direct-shipping bill into law. If he does, it goes into effect July 1.
The bill permits out-of-state wineries to register with the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission for a $300 initial application fee and a $150 annual license and, if approved, sell and ship wine directly to Tennessee residents.
But the bill, in a compromise from an earlier version, limits shipments from any one winery to any one Tennessee resident to 9 liters, or one case of 12 standard 750-milliliter bottles, per calendar month and no more than 27 liters, or three cases, per calendar year.
The permit fees and limits on purchases will keep some wineries from registering and shipping directly to Tennessee consumers, said Hunter Limbaugh, state relations liaison for nine Southeastern states for the Wine Institute, an industry association.
Only one or two states have lower limits on the amount of wine that can be shipped to their residents, he said; states that allow direct shipping typically permit up to 12 cases from any one winery to any individual per year. The original bill, sponsored by Sen. Paul Stanley, R-Germantown, contained the 12-case limit but was amended down to three as a compromise.
"From our perception, it's not a perfect bill," Limbaugh said. "There will be wineries that it won't make sense economically to participate in Tennessee's program. But I feel sure there will be wineries that do."
Stanley said he believes it's still "a good bill for consumers. It's a limited-quantity, direct wine shipment. It gives people the option to order directly."
"I still maintain that if people know that their retail establishments carry what they want, they'll go there and get it," Stanley said. "It's mainly for people that have visited (out of state wineries) and have discovered things they like or who can't get certain wines at the retail level here and they just want to get access to it."
Contact Nashville Bureau chief Richard Locker at (615) 255-4923.
Direct wine shipments
Tennessee is one of 15 states -- including Arkansas and Mississippi -- that do not currently allow direct shipment of wine to their residents. A bill approved by the state legislature Thursday would allow:
Up to 9 liters of wine per month from a registered winery to a Tennessee resident at least 21 years old, and up to 27 liters per calendar year.
Carriers must deliver wine face-to-face to a person with identification showing they are at least 21.
No shipments into a city or county that does not permit the sale of wine and spirits.
Wineries must collect and send to the state all sales taxes.

Sometimes it's better to be safe than sorry, and we've spent a lot of time with this system. Here's a list of things you might see while editing in RedDot and you should ask us for help fixing before you spend too much time trying to figure it out on your own.
- I want to add a new page to my site – Depending on where this new page goes, you should talk to us about it. It might be a section, like your News section or a list of Faculty profiles, where you are able to add pages easily. It might be a section where Web Design & Support needs to add it for you. Talk to us and we'll help get it set up.
- I don't know why "X" isn't working anymore – With a system as complex as RedDot…and the simple fact that it has to do with computers at all…there are bound to be bugs and issues come up that throw you for a loop from time to time. Before you spend too much time trying to figure out what's wrong, don't hesitate to give us a call and ask us. It might be something we've seen before and can help you work out. It might also be a new bug we need to pass on to the system's developers. In either case, the sooner that you talk to us the more likely it is that we can help save you some time and get your problem fixed quickly.
- An image won't show up even after I have added it – Sometimes editors will add an image and forget to add the alternate text that accompanies it. If the alternate text is missing, the image will not show up on some pages. To learn more about adding an image and alternate text, check out our add image tutorial.
- The page looks weird. All the colors are off and the fonts are wrong – Occasionally there will be a bug in the way a page publishes and it will publish without its associated styles that define things like font size and color. If this happens, let us know and we will fix it for you.
- There's a page with a really weird name (like GUID13541…) in my workflow – This happens whenever an editor creates a page and then does not assign it a headline. You can give it a headline by clicking on its name in your drafts folder. You will then be taken to the page with the headline red dot and you can edit it there.
If you created the page by accident you can change the headline to "Delete this" and submit it through workflow. Web Design & Support will delete it for you.

text: Greece has made many contributions to our life today. Without the Greeks we probably wouldn't have many things. One thing we got from the Greeks is our form of government. Democracy was formed in Athens. Although similar, our Democracy is different than the Greeks though, because all the people in our government have the right to vote and in Greece, only the citizens had the right to vote. Another important contribution is our written language. It is based on the Greek form of writing called Linear B. It had less than 30 symbols and was easier to remember and write with. The Olympic games are based on an ancient Greek ceremonies. This includes racing, the discuss throw, the javelin throw, boxing, and wrestling. Now, people from over 100 countries compete in the Olympics. Many of the events that were held in Greece are still held today. Today we have philosophers who are people we look for for answers and knowledge. The Greeks had philosophers also. Philosopher means lover of knowledge. Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle are examples of ancient philosophers. Another lasting achievement of the Greeks comes from the father of medicine named Hippocrates. Today all doctors have to take the Hippocratic oath which makes doctors pledge to act ethically and morally. Another area that ancient Greeks have influenced our lives today is Science. For example, Archimedes discovered a very important law of physics while he was in the bath tub: a body displaces it's own weight in water. The beginning of modern theater can be traced to ancient Greece. Greek theater began with songs and dances performed in the marketplace by a group of men called a chorus. Eventually huge open-air theaters were opened all over Greece. The Greeks created three architectural styles that you can still see today. The Doric style is simple with thick sturdy columns and plain tops. The Ionic style had thinner columns and at it's tops had two swirls. The Corinthian style has elaborate tops decorated with leaves. Corinthian columns were not commonly used by the Greeks, but were popular in Roman times. It is amazing that over thousands of years Greek culture has survived.

I realize I'm a little behind on the times by making a wool coat just in time for Spring, ha but I live in Utah so it's pretty much Winter all year round anyways.
I made it using the coat pattern from the BurdaStyle sewing handbook and just de-poofed the sleeves a little bit and made it 4 inches shorter.

WHAT IS IT with the U-Pass? Since its inception in September 2010, it has endured an impressive amount of complaints from students and OC Transpo staff alike.
First it was the pricing, then the lack of an opt-out option, and now the $70 price increase. Is it time to rethink the program altogether, or do we just need something to complain about?
For such a young program, the U-Pass is not that bad. Even with the recently proposed price hike, the U-Pass saves students money. Students with cars have the chance to help the environment by taking the bus, while those who bike or walk don't have to freeze in the winter.
The problem is that issues other than pricing are not being addressed. The only proposed change to the program is the $70 increase, which ignores other concerns students have with the U-Pass. For example, college and part-time students are still excluded from the program, limiting accessibility and ridership. It's also extremely hard for students currently enrolled in the program to opt-out if they can't or don't use the bus.
Both Carleton and University of Ottawa students will vote in a referendum this spring on whether to continue their enrolment in the U-Pass program. I will check off "no" on my ballot. The U-Pass program isn't bad, but it needs to be more inclusive and versatile. If students are to put hard-earned money into the U-Pass annually, it has to attend to the concerns of students.
Only 64 per cent of U of O voters were in favour of the U-Pass in the original referendum in spring 2009, but with the recently proposed changes, some are unsure whether the program has enough appeal for students. If the city really wants to improve the U-Pass, they should do a call for suggestions, organize discussion, and rethink what this project is meant to do for both the city and the students in it. Providing affordable and environmentally friendly transportation is important, but so is accommodating its users.

Since my previous Fintech Four (when Bitcoin was a lowly $200), it's been an interesting few weeks. Here are the standouts last week:
One: Coin is an overnight YouTube sensation
Who would have guessed a $50 payment gadget could be a viral hit? In the week since it was announced, the 105-second demo video (made Sandwich Video) has racked up more than 6 million views, 26,000 likes, and almost 9,000 comments. The company said it's original $50,000 crowdfunding goal was hit in 47 minutes, they have not said how many have been sold since. According to a button on its site, the pre-order period will last 30 days.
Many of speculated about why this happened, but the most concise summary is on Quora written by Brian Roemmele. He lists five reasons:
1. The product solves a real problem, too many cards in the wallet
2. Coin implies there is a limited supply
3. It was selling at for a limited time at 50% off
4. It appealed to early adopters with a blend of "old" meets "new"
5. $5 referral credit (against the $50 cost) with a built-in sharing button at the end of the purchase process.
Two: The latest fintech prize winners
Fintech startups have been taking home awards at various fall tech events this fall. Here are six winners in from the past 10 days:
1. FinovateAsia Best of Show winners from Singapore (post):
- BehavioSec biometric authentication
- IND Group Essence mobile banking app
- Kofax loan underwriting solution
- Yodlee Tandem financial collaboration app
2. Innotribe Disrupt winner at NextBank LatinAmerica (Bogota, Columbia)
- Intoo, a 6-person Brazilian small business financing portal, won the Latin American round of the year-long Innotribe contest
3. Get In the Ring winner at this Dutch startup competition (Rotterdam)
- EyeVerify (FinovateSpring 13) took home $11,000 in cash, plus a potential million euro investment, for its eyeprint authentication technology (post)
Three: Finovera launches "PFM for your bills"
Finovera (FinovateSpring 13), officially launched its billing/PFM portal and landed a favorable TechCrunch post. The service competes in the PFM space, but is more focused on the billing and payments side (along with Manilla and doxo). Unlike analyzing/charting spending, the process of organizing, paying, and archiving bills is a near-universal need. So, it's an area that retail banks should pay close attention to (note 1).
Four: Virtual currencies gain more real-world backing
U.S. regulators didn't exactly endorse Bitcoin and other virtual currencies, but they didn't condemn it either (Financial Times article). That was enough to send prices through the roof, touching $900 by some reports, a nice 50x gain since Jan 1. Most assets that appreciate so rapidly fall back to earth, but no one knows for sure if Bitcoin isn't than 1-in-a-million item that defies common sense.
But this is not JUST a Bitcoin story, it's about the "Internet of money." And it could be the biggest financial innovation since the credit card. However, it's still boggles my mind that regulators who are having a hard time letting normal people invest in privately held companies, are not clamping down on unregulated virtual currency trading. This story is far from finished.

Everyone wants to know more about this mysterious new girl of his. However, since she isn't real, he can tell them whatever he wants, and still be correct. See first line of this verse.
He keeps impressing this girl, and even her parents like him. This is because she likes whatever he like, cause he made her up for himself.
He also doesn't have to worry about angering her imaginary "dad".
Since he invented the perfect girl for himself, she loves everything he does.
When people ask about his new girlfriend, he can tell them whatever he wants. He made her up, so he can describe her however he wants, and still be correct.
Everything is alright, because he doesn't have any girls to worry about. Sounds similar to No Woman No Cry by Bob Marley.
When he pictured her beautiful face while daydreaming, he finally realized how stupid girls are, so he decided to make up his own perfect girl. She is literally the one of his dreams.

Sharon Shier Releases THE WISDOM OF THE TREES

Her experience with the trees during this tapping was so mind-boggling to her and she wanted to share it with children while they are young enough to incorporate a deeper appreciation of nature and it provides.

By Carol Ann Adamcik
I wanted to take a few minutes to share with you some changes in how we're providing legal services in our Joint Field Offices.
As Administrator Craig Fugate likes to say, FEMA is an expeditionary agency. That means we deliver our programs at or near the sites of disasters and away from permanent FEMA offices.
So, if you're working in a Joint Field Office this year, then you're likely to be working with one of our Deployable Field Counsel or "DFC." Our DFC team consists of 12 full-time, FEMA Qualification System qualified legal professionals who:
• Deploy on demand—they're our "first in line" JFO deployed
• Maintain a persistent presence in the field; and
• Concentrate on operationally-focused solutions to JFO legal and ethics issues
Members of OCC's Deployable Field Counsel team took advantage of a rare in-person reunion during field counsel training last month in the Washington, D.C., area to pose for a group photo. Seated in the front Row are DFC Supervisor Carol Ann Adamcik, Mike Hill, Rita Sislen, and Charlotte Stewart. Standing in the back are Rosa Rios DFC coordinator, Chuttie Senn, Pat Hogan, Elizabeth Blair, Emery Haskell, Keith Weiner and Jose Morales.
The DFC Program is a significant change to the Office of Chief Counsel's business model, which used to rely almost exclusively on reservists to provide legal support to our JFOs. We will continue to maintain and deploy a small, very experienced cadre of FQS qualified reservists, particularly for longer-term recovery operations.
So, if you're in a JFO this year, please seek out and use your DFC, and, if your JFO doesn't have an attorney on site, then please call or email Carol Ann Adamcik, our DFC supervisor, Rosa Rios, our DFC coordinator, or your servicing Regional Counsel—there's no wrong door in OCC: just call us.
Last, but not least, please don't forget about the recently published Disaster Operations Legal Reference or "DOLR"—that's our authoritative legal reference book for disaster operations—edited and maintained by the DFC. You can request t hard copies of the DOLR, while they last, by calling the warehouse at 1-800-480-2520. While I hope you need and use the DOLR, the DOLR needs YOU!! Please submit suggestions, examples, experiences, questions, and corrections to the DOLR Team anytime.
So, please use your DFC and your DOLR, and, don't hesitate to call Carol Ann Adamcik, Rosa Rios, or your servicing Regional Counsel—please let up help you on the front end to avoid those needless messes on the back end. See you in the field!
NOTE: We posted a video of this message on FEMA.gov.

Originally published on Thu July 5, 2012 9:25 pm
There's so much water in, around and underneath New Orleans, that the dead spend eternity in tombs above ground.
Most of the tombs now have a similar design: On top, there's space for a wooden coffin or two, and at the bottom lies a potpourri of decanted family remains. Sooner or later, whoever is up high must vacate and settle lower, making room for the newly dead. That's how families stay together — in a desiccated jumble of grandpas, grandmas, siblings and cousins.
In a stretch of sandy wasteland, Hisham Sadowi, 12, smacks a tee shot across a makeshift golf course in Benghazi, Libya.
On this course with no grass, local rules allowed him to place the ball on a little square of artificial turf he carries around.
Hisham dreams of becoming a professional golfer, and he stops briefly to speak to us. We asked him who his favorite golfer is.
"Tiger Woods," he exclaims.
New Orleans now has the highest per capita murder rate in the country. Most of the killings are concentrated in the city's poorest neighborhoods — places like Central City, just a few blocks north of the stately mansions that line St. Charles Avenue.
The city's mayor is launching a new program aimed at cracking what he describes as a deeply rooted culture of violence. But victims complain that a failed criminal justice system has left the streets to vigilante justice, with innocent residents caught in the crossfire.
A Wounded Neighborhood
In 1835, Washington, D.C., was a city in transition: Newly freed African-Americans were coming north and for the first time beginning to outnumber the city's slaves. That demographic shift led to a violent upheaval — all but forgotten today.
Few of the city's buildings from that time remain, but you can still sense what it was like, if you sit in a park by the White House, as NPR's Steve Inskeep did with writer Jefferson Morley.
Sometimes history is made in the most unlikely of places.
This summer, the community of Idlewild, Mich., once known as America's "Black Eden," is celebrating its centennial — and its place in American history.
Located about 30 miles east of the larger resort city of Ludington, tucked away in the woods of the Huron-Manistee National Forests, the town was once a go-to spot for summer vacations. It was a resort unlike any other in the United States, however, and was, in essence, the town that segregation built.

Posted 11/12/2009 By Levy Joffrion Americans Win Awards In WorldSkills ContestASA members who actively support SkillsUSA can be proud of the fact two Americans took home awards in the 40th international competition held recently in Calgary, Canada. Jack Frederick, a student at Pittsburg State University, Pittsburgh, Kan., took second place in the automobile technology competition. He was given a silver medal and recognized as one of the best in the world after competing against contestants from 27 different countries. Ben Janke of Marshall, Wis., a graduate of Madison Area Technical College, took home the Medallion of Excellence Award in the car painting competition. Frederick and Janke earned the right to be a member of the United States "World Team" by winning local, district and national contests under the SkillsUSA program. In addition to the many ASA members who actively support SkillsUSA, Bill Haas, ASA's vice president for education and training, is a member of SkillsUSA's collision repair technology committee. WIN Schedules 2010 Conference
The Women's Industry Network (WIN) will hold its 2010 conference at the Peabody Hotel in Orlando, Fla. It will be the fourth annual conference for the not-for-profit organization dedicated to encouraging, developing and cultivating opportunities to attract women to collision repair. Denise Caspersen, manager of the Automotive Service Association's Collision Division, is a member of WIN's board of directors. Geralynn Kottschade, AAM, is the immediate past chairwoman of the organization. She is co-owner of Jerry's Body Shop in Mankato, Minn. In 2004, she was named the first female chairman of ASA and has served as chairman of NACE two years. Mitchell Offers I-CAR CoursesMitchell International has teamed with the Inter-Industry Conference on Auto Collision Repair (I-CAR) in offering a series of I-CAR collision repair training courses at its San Diego headquarters. The courses will be open to both employees of Mitchell and the general public. Wayne Krause, manager of labor and specialty databases for Mitchell and an I-CAR instructor, said: "Given the fact that part of Mitchell's labor time development involves the utilization of I-CAR best practices, it was felt [the courses were] a way to extend that knowledge to the rest of the industry."

Bonaire, am I impressed yet???
Trip Start
Mar 17, 2007
Trip End
AND: we are going to Singapore and Australia: Dr T booked!!! We leave Belgium the 17th of September.
Hans takes us to the airport. We have a birthday coming up, so we go to the post office at the airport. 'Express, please.' 'Cannot, my scanner is broken. But you can go to another post office.' Sure, we will take a taxi to the city, pretending we do not have a plane to catch.' Next on our to do list: go to the Air Jamaica headquarters. Very difficult to find! When we finally do: closed on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Of course, it is 1 of those days! We have to cancel 2 expensive flights. Let's go to Alke then, the airline we fly home within 3 weeks. We ARE booked but we have to drop by in one of their offices and present a credit card, at least 8 days before departure. No more Alke office at the airport. There USED to be one but ... .
Very unsuccessful so far! Check-in OK. We wait for our flight. And wait. It is past the departure time and the gate flick from 'on time' to 'departed'. Help! No, it did not leave yet, it is delayed with an hour. We wait. And wait. It is past the delayed departure time and the gate flicks from 'delayed till...' to 'departed'. No panic this time. We leave 1,5 hours late and 40 minutes later we land in Bonaire. What a cute airport, all pink!
Luggage is there too (always a win) and we take a taxi to our apartment. 10 bucks for 5 minutes rite!
At the reception, things are not that shiny either. They do not take credit cards because, euh because, she cannot really think of a reason, nor do we ask. Tony asks whether we can transfer the amount to her bank account in the Netherlands. Yes, if we pay 14 Euro extra. Why???? Because that is the costs she pays. Noooooooooooo. Nobody pays costs to receive money. And certainly not from a Dutch to a Dutch bank account. This is robbery: I am NOT paying the 14 Euro! Sigh... . Then, we need a car. For the whole stay because, you cannot even walk to an ATM or local store from the apartments. They start calling. Lots of stories and time later: we will have a car OR tonight or tomorrow morning at 9 OR here or at the airport. Tilly promises. Tilly is a fat Dutch woman in leggings and a short t-shirt, NOT a pretty combination. Tilly's boyfriend takes us shopping. He is chatting. Yes, they do have a small swimming pool but why lay at the pool if there are beaches everywhere? Because I like pools? He also claims that you can see as much snorkeling as diving but he never dove. How does he know then? I sit in the back, being grumpy.
We are back at the third world countries. Fruit and vegetables are crappy. No fresh meat or fish. We top op till tomorrow, since we have a car by then anyway. Me starting the food in my kitchen. See my mood? Poor Dr T! We eat our diner together and make it an early night.
Because of the early night, we are up very early. We wait for news from Tilly. We have not heard anything last night. 9 o'clock here or at the airport? Tony walks to the reception at 08h30, the first of many walks there. It is closed. And stays closed. At 10h30, he decides to go and sniffle in the neighborhood. And comes back with info. He found a hotel with dive shop and car rental place, they have one 'cheap' car left but only as from tomorrow morning.
We walk there. Look at our house and our terrace. We book the car. Now the diving. In Bonaire you go shore diving, just the 2 of you. It is very easy. Even inexperienced open water divers can do it. But I do not feel comfortable. You rent your gear for a week and off you go. I am concerned about the safety. What if something happens to Tony? I cannot find my way in a card board box, let alone in the sea. What if we get lost? Nobody knows where we are! We are very experienced and Dr T is good at finding his way 'down there' but still ... . Marjolein, the operations manager is very nice. We will come to the island briefing tomorrow morning. It is for free and gives you all info on diving on the island. Hubby is, once again, very patient with me. We will not do anything with which I am not confident. IF I still not feel like diving on our own, after the tomorrow's briefing, we won't. If I do not like it after the first dive, it is our last dive on our own. We book our car for tomorrow morning. We walk back home and Hubby does the dishes (is he perfect or what?) while I talk to my brother.
We call a taxi and ask for the price for a rite to Kralendijk, the capital of Bonaire. Seven $. Done! The taxi arrives within 5 minutes and arriving in Kralendijk, he charges us: 13 $. This island and me is NOT a good combination. Tony suggests to walk to the tourist information, which is ... closed in the weekend. High season, the whole island fully booked and they close their tourist information IN THE WEEKEND??? It is clear: we need BEER. We sit on the terrace and we talk about sailing. Correction: Tony talks about sailing. I do not know anything about it. I would like to take some courses. Maybe here.
We go for a walk. Look at the number plates of the cars look like here. The only number plates in the world, which mention diving, all of them! After some shopping, we go for a bite. The 'city' is cute, also pastel colors like Willemstad. Only: most of the restaurants are closed!!! Or empty.
Then we find a frituur. They have a picture of queen Beatrix having a frietje. Dr T says; 'what is good enough for the queen, is good enough for me' and sits down in the same chair as Beatrix to have his lunch. Very late lunch.
We take a taxi home and ... have a nap. Old people!
I get up and start writing to you. When Dr T gets up, he turns on the TV and a movie starts, which sounds pretty interesting to us. Does not happen every day. So: that is where we are, me talking to you and watching the movie. Since it is almost 21h, I should start the food.

Nutrition & Calorie Comments
Also another article says that low fat cheese is about 40 calories per ounce less than full fat... and one recipe for fat free paneer lists the calories at 158 for 100 grams |
Submitted by: MELISSABRILL (11/18/13) report inappropriate |
Since the Paneer is strained, and therefore the whey is taken out of it, doesn't that mean there would be a much lower amout of carbs? Isn't the whey in milk the sugars?? And if so, how would you factor that in to the calculations of the recipe? And by the way, this recipe looks VERY good! |
Submitted by: SEEWHATHAPPENS (7/23/12) report inappropriate |
Just curious, but how are the calories calculated for this recipe? I assume that you lose some of the calories in the straining process. Very clear instructions, however, I can't wait to try it! |
Submitted by: MEDHOPEFUL777 (4/20/12) report inappropriate |
This was simple, delicious, relatively inexpensive to make, and a life-saver for someone who craves Indian food but is on a diet. (YAY, fat-free!) Thank you so much. |

To get an idea of what's coming and when -- dates can change -- here is the current timeline for the various aspects of the law.
Oct. 1: Open enrollment starts for a new health insurance marketplace.Consumers and small businesses will be able to shop for health insurance policies here.
You'll be able to see what insurers are charging for different levels of coverage and sign up for plans that take effect on Jan. 1, 2014.
The marketplace -- to be run by states that chose to operate their own and by the federal government for everyone else -- opens the door to those who want to buy health insurance but aren't eligible through their employers, or are self-employed. (If you get health insurance through your employer, you don't need to buy coverage through the marketplace.) Small businesses, which won't be required to provide coverage for their employees until 2015, can also begin shopping for policies.
Jan. 1, 2014: This is a huge day for Obamacare. Many of the old rules of health insurance will go out the window and move sharply in favor of some consumers, particularly those most in need of health care.
The first policies issued by those who have shopped through the marketplace will start. In addition, a series of consumer protections will take effect. Insurers will not be allowed to refuse coverage to someone because of a pre-existing condition or charge more because of their health or gender.
In addition, caps on how much coverage someone can have in a given year will be dropped. Another change prevents an insurer for changing or eliminating coverage for anyone who chooses to participate in a clinical trial to treat a life-threatening disease, including cancer.
This is also the day that middle-income families become eligible for tax credits. Those who earn up to 400% of the poverty line (roughly $43,000 for an individual and $88,000 for a family of four) will be eligible. Because the tax credit can be applied in advance -- you don't have to wait until you file your taxes -- it can be applied to lower your monthly premiums.
Greater access to Medicaid is supposed to become available to those who earn less than 133% of the poverty level (about $29,000 for a family of four). However, this is a state-by-state decision and 21 states have indicated they are not going to comply with that provision. However, just about anyone who can afford health insurance will be required to buy at list minimal coverage or be assessed a penalty.
Jan. 1, 2015: Small businesses -- those with at least 50 employees who work more than 30 hours a week -- will be required to offer health insurance to its employees. The deadline is a year later than had initially been planned, but appeals to delay implementation as some of the complexities of the law are sorted out were heeded. Those businesses face a $3,000 per person penalty if they fail to provide coverage.

When the ibook hit the market it was an amazing looking product. An frankly speaking it still is. Apple, under the direction of John Ive, has produce trend setting computer system. First with the iMac, then with the Cube, and now with the iBook and Titanium. However much people love or hate the iMac for what it is, no one can deny the way in which Apple set a massive trend. The iBook was Apple's attempt at reaching the lower end of the portable market. The end that covers home users and students, not pro users.

Some products appeal to logic. Others, such as the Apple iBook, appeal to the senses. Sure, the iBook is a hefty notebook with a price tag to match. But it looks pretty darn cool, and that fact -- along with a few nice features -- helps explain why the iBook is one the most popular laptops sold in retail, especially among students. The iBook has a distinctive rounded clamshell case that measures 4.57 x 34.2 x 29.9 cms (HWD) with a sturdy handle. Apple says the iBook was designed specifically to stand up to life in a student's backpack. The lid snaps open and closed -- no latches required -- and the attractive, translucent case is coated with a tough ... Read the complete review

Thank you so much for your quick response back. As soon as I feel like I have mastered an area, I learn new techniques that can make it better. I will definitely be looking into that book you suggested! The job ahead of me is so important, it is well worth the time spent preparing and making it better each year!
Thanks, Nichole! The Cornerstone by Angela Powell is also a tremendous resource- I've only read some of it, though., Have a very good year, and I hope you find what you need over time. -Victoria

It's been a powerful week for visual history which got me thinking about the impact of images on the way we remember events, particularly tragedy. The old adage that pictures speak louder than words is never more true than images that capture loss and horror. They remind us of some of the worst events in our recent history and symbolise the darkest aspects of our humanity: politics, greed and power. It's impossible to forget them.
This picture has been everywhere this week as we remember the 23rd anniversary of Tiananmen Square, and it's certainly one of the most powerful images we can think of in the history of photojournalism. "Tank Man" is the name given to this photograph that was taken on 4 June 1989 by Jeff Widener, then Southeast Asia Picture Editor with Associated Press in Bangkok.

Irving Spitz presents an overview of some noteworthy museum exhibits of 2013.
HEROD'S RECONSTRUCTED mausoleum at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem
Photo: ELIE POSNER
Eight million people attended the major blockbuster art event of all time – the "Tutankhamun" exhibit at the at New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art, which premiered in 1976 and ran for 30 months. Civic authorities were quick to realize that with a smash hit of this nature, vast financial benefits could be accrued from visitors.
New museums designed by famous architects then began to sprout all over the world, like Frank Gehry's Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, which transformed a sleepy Basque town into a major tourist attraction.
It was also readily appreciated that impressive and thought-provoking exhibits could also boost museum attendance. Such unique events are so special that they warrant a dedicated trip to view them.
In that spirit, what follows is a summary of the most memorable 2013 artistic events I attended, led by the most outstanding – the Israel Museum's Herod exhibit.
Herod the Great: The King's Final Journey
This most impressive show deserved all accolades, for its content and extraordinary curatorship. It was the first-ever exhibit dedicated to Herod, the greatest builder in Jewish history. Indeed, Herod's main legacy lies in his massive building projects.
This ambitious exhibit was seen by over 450,000 visitors, an Israel Museum record.
In 2007, after a 40-year search, archeologist Prof. Ehud Netzer discovered Herod's tomb at Herodion, a palace fortress that the king had built on the edge of the Judean Desert. Herodion also included gardens, pools, decorated bathhouses and a theater.
After discovering the tomb, Netzer broached the idea of this exhibit with the Israel Museum.
Tragically, he died in 2010 after sustaining a fall at Herodion. Fittingly this milestone exhibit was dedicated to his memory.
The museum utilized computer-generated models of Herodian palaces in Jericho as well as his massive building projects in Caesarea, Massada and Herodion. Emphasis was also given to Herod's renovation and reconstruction of the Temple in Jerusalem, reputed to be the largest and most magnificent building of its kind in the Roman world.
The exhibit shed new light on the political and aesthetic influence of the controversial king. It emphasized the delicate relationship between Rome and Judea, attesting to Herod's political savvy. Originally a protégé of Mark Antony, Herod switched sides to Octavian (Augustus) when the latter defeated Antony. In the exhibit there were busts of Herod's Roman contemporaries, including Augustus and his wife Livia, his friend Marcus Agrippa as well as Mark Antony and Cleopatra.
On view were many reconstructed palace rooms decorated with stucco, restored frescoes and mosaics. In total, there were about 250 artifacts, many of which had never been previously exhibited. There were remarkable wall paintings, including a nautical scene with ships in battle.
There were also carved stone fragments from the Temple Mount, an imperial marble basin believed to be a gift from Augustus to Herod, and a huge stone bathtub which had been unearthed in Cypros, one of his palaces overlooking Jericho. In the display of amphorae, there were several with inscriptions indicating they had contained wine, fruit or fish sauce; many of these delicacies had been imported.
The centerpiece was a monumental, full-sized reconstruction of Herod's mausoleum.
It featured stone blocks excavated at the site with Ionic columns and intricate cornices. This edifice weighed some 30 tons, and the museum had to strengthen the gallery foundations to support this weight.
Three shattered limestone sarcophagi were found in the tomb's vicinity. The most elaborate was intricately carved from expensive reddish limestone. It had been deliberately and almost totally destroyed soon after its construction, but was painstakingly restored for the exhibit. This sarcophagus was placed inside the burial chamber and may possibly have held Herod's body.
The exhibit was accompanied by an outstanding scholarly catalogue, edited by Silvia Rozenberg and David Mevorah.
The museum staff toiled for over three years to bring this once-in-a-lifetime show to fruition. The results represent an artistic triumph for Israel in general, and the museum and its director, James Snyder, in particular.
Cleopatra, Rome and the Magic of Egypt
Rome's Chiostro del Bramante hosted this show, which ideally complemented that of Herod in Jerusalem. It analyzed Cleopatra's relationship with Rome and that city's fascination for Egypt.
The charismatic queen Cleopatra, a contemporary of Herod, was barely 20 when she seduced Julius Caesar and subsequently Mark Antony. Highly intelligent, she spoke at least seven languages, including Hebrew and Aramaic.
The 180 masterpieces on show include frescoes, mosaics, funerary urns, coins, sculptures and jewelry.
Leonardo da Vinci: The Universal Man
This show-stopper was featured in Venice's Gallerie dell'Accademia, and highlighted 52 of Leonardo's graphic works.
Because of their fragility and sensitivity to light, this was the first time since 1980 that the entire Accademia's collection was on display. There were also loans from other great museums.
Pride of place went to the renowned Vitruvian Man, a representation of the union of art and science, one of the greatest icons of Western art. In addition to studies of the human body, the exhibit also featured preparatory drawings for Leonardo's lost painting, The Battle of Anghiari, as well as sections on botany and weapons. The latter illustrated another facet of Leonardo's versatility, that of a designer of arms.
The Biblioteca Reale in Turin lent works to both the Leonardo show in Venice and New York's Morgan Library and Museum.
Prominently displayed in New York was Leonardo's Head of a Young Woman, acknowledged as one of the most beautiful drawings in the world as well as his Codex on the Flight of Birds.
Grand Hotel: Redesigning Modern Life
Another memorable show at Vancouver's Art Gallery, "Redesigning Modern Life," centered on themes of travel, design, culture and social interaction, by charting the evolution of the hotel from its origins to its establishment as a major cultural phenomenon.
The exhibit showed how the hotel had been a fertile environment for art, literature, music, film, poetry and science. Sigmund Freud and Richard Wagner worked in the café at Vienna's Hotel Imperial, while influential cultural figures gathered at New York's Algonquin and Chelsea Hotels.
This exhibit demonstrated that after World War II, the US government believed that American-style hotels could bolster economic and political stability in the face of Soviet expansionism. The US actually financed some of the Hilton hotel constructions in Cairo, Tehran, Istanbul and Tel Aviv through the Marshall Plan, the aid program which rescued European economies after the war.
Venice's 55th Biennale
This is arguably the most prestigious and influential international contemporary art event. This year, 88 countries participated.
It would have required many days to do justice to this massive show, but three pavilions were especially noteworthy.
Germany featured an installation by Ai Weiwei, the Chinese artist who because of his political views has had several run-ins with the Chinese authorities.
His intriguing exhibit, titled "Bang," comprised a forest of 886 threelegged wooden stools. Such stools have a typical local Chinese flavor, and have been used there for centuries.
Britain's contribution was designed by artist Jeremy Deller. It took subtle aim at England's social, political and economic society, stretching back to Palaeolithic times with a display of ancient hand axes. A contemporary painting featured a colossal figure of William Morris, the Victorian socialist and designer, hurtling Russian tycoon Roman Abramovich's yacht into the Venetian lagoon.
In the Russian pavilion, Vadim Zakharov also created an installation highlighting the political and social milieu of the new Russia. It was based on the Greek mythological story of Danae, who despite being imprisoned in a tower was still impregnated by Zeus, who appeared in the form of golden rain. Gold coins rained down from the ceiling on women visitors protected by umbrellas; men were barred from this area but could view the proceedings from a balcony. A rather grave unsmiling bureaucrat collected the coins with a bucket, placing them on a conveyor belt which transported them to the roof. The flow of cash began again…
The author, an emeritus professor of medicine, writes, reviews and lectures on medical topics, music, art, history and travel (www.irvingspitz.com); he was recently recognized with the Sidney H. Ingbar Distinguished Service Award by the Endocrine Society for his contributions to the field.

RIM offers sneak peek of BlackBerry OS 6.0
The demo video below shows some core features of the updated platform like the new multi-touch interface, WebKit powered browser, universal search, the latest BlackBerry Messenger client, an integrated RSS reader, and an enhanced media player interface. There's also a new Social Feeds app designed to make social networking easier by integrating information from different services into one coherent stream, and allowing you to update them simultaneously.
Overall, the user interface's graphical elements still look quite outdated compared to the competition, but in the features department the new OS looks promising -- BlackBerry users might finally get a decent browser out of the box. The updated software is expected to debut with the upcoming BlackBerry 9800 (Torch?) presumably by the end of September.
