Public fury mounts as toll from Turkish mine rises

SOMA, TURKEY—Women sang songs about departed miners Thursday over the graves of relatives killed in Turkey's worst mining accident, even as more hearses pulled up and backhoes dug more graves around them.
Rescue teams recovered eight more victims, raising the death toll to 282, with 142 people still unaccounted for. The disaster Tuesday has set off protests around Turkey and thrown Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's presidential ambitions off stride. Blackening his reputation further, one of Erdogan's aides was accused of attacking a protester on the ground.
In the western town of Soma, where coal mining has been the main industry for decades, women wailed and sang songs about their relatives as bodies were taken from coffins and lowered into their graves. Pictures of the lost relatives were pinned onto their clothing.
No miner has been brought out alive since dawn Wednesday from the coal mine where the explosion and fire took place. Many mourners said they spent their whole lives fearing something like this.
"The wives of the miners kiss their husbands in the morning. When they come back, even if they are five minutes late, everyone starts calling. You never know what is going to happen," said Gulizar Donmez, 45, the daughter and wife of a miner and neighbour of one of the victims.
Erdogan, who is expected to soon announce his candidacy for Turkey's presidential election in August, was not welcome and was forced to take refuge at a supermarket during his visit to the area Wednesday after angry crowds called him a murderer and thief and clashed with police.
Turkish newspapers Cumhuriyet, Milliyet and others on Thursday printed photographs they said were of an Erdogan aide kicking a protester who was on the ground and being held by special forces police during the scuffles. The papers identified the aide as Yusuf Yerkel.
Erdogan had earlier downplayed the disaster, calling mining accidents "ordinary things" that also occur in many other countries, after giving examples of 19th-century mine accidents in Britain.
With hopes for the missing miners fading, Energy Minister Taner Yildiz told reporters that rescue efforts were focusing on two areas inside the mine.
Rescue operations have been suspended several times as burning coal inside created toxic fumes and too-risky conditions for the rescue teams.
"We believe that we still have brothers in two areas that we still have not been able to reach," Yildiz said. He did not say whether authorities believed they were dead.
The government has said 787 people were inside the coal mine at the time of Tuesday's explosion. Scores of those rescued suffered injuries.
The death toll has topped a 1992 gas explosion that killed 263 workers near Turkey's Black Sea port of Zonguldak.
Authorities said this week's disaster followed an explosion and fire at a power distribution unit, and most deaths were caused by carbon monoxide poisoning.

Wounded Palestinian Kidnapped In Bethlehem
Undercover forces of the Israeli military kidnapped, on Thursday at night, a young Palestinian man, after shooting him in the Aida refugee camp, north of the West Bank city of Bethlehem.
Local sources said undercover soldiers of the Israeli military infiltrated into the camp using a vehicle carrying Palestinian license plates, and shot Arafa Abu Srour, age 25, in his leg before kidnapping him.

http://www.fourseasons.com/boston/ for more information on our Four Seasons Boston location. Chef Robert at Four Seasons Boston is here to discuss a very serious matter with us: desserts. He's going to be creating his perfect chocolate cake recipe served with homemade vanilla ice cream, a sure-fire crowd pleaser for any event. But there's one thing this chocolate cake recipe can claim that no others can—it's healthy! Chef Robert recommends buying organic, whole wheat cake mix and follow the instructions but also add chopped oatmeal and flax seeds. Chef Robert recommends for his Chocolate Cake recipe to use chocolate pudding made with low fat milk instead of icing for the filling in between layers chocolate Cool Whip instead of a traditional buttercream icing. Chef Robert also recommends putting a layer of fruit along with the pudding in between each layer of your cake for a really healthy snack. To make vanilla ice cream a healthy snack, use low fat milk and Greek yogurt instead of heavy cream. Stay tuned to our YouTube channel for more healthy snack recipes from the lovely staff at Four Seasons Boston.

Gambit (US - DVD R1 | BD RA)
The Coen Brothers scripted comedy thriller is coming to Blu and DVD soon...
Starring: Colin Firth
Released: 27th May 2014
Further Details:
Sony Picture Home Entertainment sent over info today on their Blu-ray and DVD release of director Michael Hoffman's
Gambit. Neither the press release or official press site have any technical specs, which leads me to believe both will be barebones affairs.
Quote: Curator Harry Deane is an expert in fine art, but he spends most of his days taking abuse from his boss. That's about to change. Pushed to the brink, Deane decides to show his employer, England's richest man,that his real expertise is in the art of revenge. The plan – trick the avid art collector into buying a fake Monet painting with the help of an eccentric Texas rodeo queen. The risks are huge, but so is the payback…though a finely-crafted con is only as believable as its artist.

Protect Your Medicare Part D
Medicare Part D, an important source of prescription drug coverage for over 31 million Medicare beneficiaries, is the rare government program that is costing less than projected and exceeding expectations. Thanks to Part D, beneficiaries have more choices and increased access to the medicines they need.
Medicare Part D is working. The use of medicines made available through Part D has proven to keep older Americans healthier. Research shows that Part D beneficiaries are overwhelmingly satisfied with the program. Three out of five Part D beneficiaries say they would not be able to fill all of their prescriptions without Part D.
Part D is saving the entire Medicare system billions of dollars each year. As a result of Part D prescription drug coverage, millions of older Americans are able to afford and have access to the medications they need. This avoids unnecessary complications or costly hospitalizations, creating savings for the system. Further, independent studies confirm that the Part D program promotes competition in the health care marketplace and costs significantly less than originally estimated.
Right now, however, Congress and the White House are considering proposals that would change Medicare, including some that would drastically alter Part D.
One proposal could increase Part D premiums for older Americans by as much as 40 percent, and threatens to make Part D look more like Medicaid. This could result in barriers to access for patients, which is often the case for those who receive drug coverage under Medicaid.
In a nutshell, this change could mean higher out-of-pocket costs for older Americans and could reduce the choices of medicines available to them.
You can help save Medicare Part D by explaining why the program is important to you and your family. Tell us your story. Sign our petition to tell Congress not to change your Medicare Part D.
Medicare Part D is a program that works. Tell Congress to leave Part D alone!
The Details
Part D is working so well because competition is keeping costs down for beneficiaries. Some elected officials have proposed forcing drug manufacturers to pay new taxes or "rebates" on prescription drugs sold in Medicare Part D. This change could reduce the level of discounts already offered by drug manufacturers and would likely make medicines much more expensive for all Medicare beneficiaries.
The current system works. Competitive negotiations between Medicare insurers and drug manufactures have proven to control drug costs in Part D. According to a 2013 analysis by the bipartisan Congressional Budget Office (which serves as the government's official accountant), Medicare Part D has cost $346 billion (45 percent) less than originally estimated. A government-mandated tax or "rebate" like those in Medicaid would eliminate the competition-based structure that is helping to keep costs down for seniors.
Why Should You Oppose Part D "Rebates"?
In 2013, the average Medicare Part D premium is expected to stay near $30 per month - half the original estimate of the monthly premium. However, experts say that if mandated taxes or "rebates" are applied, Part D premiums are likely to increase for all Medicare beneficiaries by as much as 40 percent - an estimated increase in out-of-pocket costs for all Medicare beneficiaries of $1.5 billion - $3.7 billion.
With other potential cuts to Medicare and Social Security under consideration, older Americans simply cannot afford to pay more. We should not put the burden of balancing the federal budget on those who have already paid their share and can least afford it.
Large increases in Part D premiums are not just bad for those who depend on Medicare; they also negatively affect the "sandwich generation"-- those Americans supporting their own children while caring for their aged parents. This generation of Americans cannot afford yet another financial burden while caring for their parents.
Applying these new taxes or "rebates" to Medicare threatens to turn Part D into a Medicaid-style program. In many states, policies meant to reduce the cost or use of medicines in Medicaid often result in barriers to access for patients, and have been shown to be associated with poor health outcomes for beneficiaries.
Medicare Part D gives older American access to prescription drugs at an affordable cost -- and people like it. The most recent study by Medicare Today shows that 90 percent of Americans enrolled in Part D are satisfied with their coverage.
Medicare Part D provides the access to affordable medicines older Americans need and keeps them healthier - which directly reduces costs to the Medicare system. The Journal of the American Medical Association found that improved access and adherence to medicines through Part D saves Medicare about $1,200 in hospital, nursing home, and other costs each year for every Medicare beneficiary. That adds up to about $13 billion in total savings each year.

Back in July, pictures emerged of the cast of David O. Russell's 1970s tale of sleaze and corruption, American Hustle, in which Christian Bale and Bradley Cooper, two very good looking men, appear to have undergone some kind of colossal enfrumpification process.

Of course, it's a true story, concerning the FBI's Abscam sting, and that's what the people involved really looked like. But surely there's a special award at the Oscars for actors who are willing to take their art to these extremes? And if there isn't, there should be.

HDS and Verizon pair up to take on Rackspace, Amazon in the clouds
Verizon's public cloud, which we've already heard is to use Oracle's Database, is going to offer a storage service based on HDS's Content Platform. The two suppliers have announced an agreement to develop a software-defined storage solution using HCP and HCP Anywhere. Verizon is huge, with, for example, 100 million retail …
Is it the same craptastic Verizon Terremark that was unable to keep healthcare.gov online?
You know, the one that was just terminated for being unable to fulfill its contractual obligation and kicked out, only to be replaced by HP's public cloud?
Not only that but considering Verizon's disgusting play with FIOS and especially that they just KILLED NET NEUTRALITY in the court I say to hell with ANYTHING that even remotely involves Verizon.
still it's an interesting partnership
see how it goes.
Verizon ? that'll be US based , right ?
Will they be investigating the same (type of) initiative in the UK ? you'd have thought so.
What about the others Chris... care to elab on those, for context ? EMC / IBM / HP .. et all.
ELreg always needs a bit of context , saves the stories looking too much like press releases without the names of the spokesperson(s).
HDS offers a cloud solution today using our HCP technology
Great article, Chris. And, through Hitachi Cloud Services, HDS already offers a cloud solution that showcases our HCP technology. http://www.hds.com/services/managed/hitachi-cloud-services.html?WT.ac=us_mg_ser_cloudsrvc

Idolatry is forbidden, but the power of the ukulele almost drove me to it
Pound for pound, the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain is the best musical entertainment in the country
Queued the other night to see the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain at the 100 Club in Oxford Street. Not something I normally do, queue. But I make an exception for the ukulele. I'd have queued for George Formby, though the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain makes a point of not associating itself with him. Nothing prudish, I think. Not everyone enjoys songs such as "With My Little Ukulele in My Hand", which had to be withdrawn from sale in 1933 in deference to public decency, but the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain doesn't strike you as censorious.
Queued the other night to see the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain at the 100 Club in Oxford Street. Not something I normally do, queue. But I make an exception for the ukulele. I'd have queued for George Formby, though the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain makes a point of not associating itself with him. Nothing prudish, I think. Not everyone enjoys songs such as "With My Little Ukulele in My Hand", which had to be withdrawn from sale in 1933 in deference to public decency, but the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain doesn't strike you as censorious.
Its argument with George Formby is aesthetic, not moral. It seeks to demonstrate the virtuosity and grandeur of the little instrument, whereas I suppose you'd have to say that George Formby sought to make it smaller and samier even than it already was. Both acts of irony, but to different ends. And you probably have to come from Lancashire to see that there's irony in George Formby at all.
There I was, anyway, waiting on Oxford Street for the doors to open, which is something else I don't normally do. If they want you there they should let you in, is my motto. Detecting my impatience, a facetiously chthonic person in the sort of bird's nest beard and seaman's pigtail you don't expect to encounter outside of a jazz festival in Wales assured me the wait would be worth it. I thanked him. He told me he liked the cut of my jib, sir. I told him I was much indebted to him, squire. He replied that he was pleased to wait upon my pleasure, captain. Shame they finally let us in. What fun we could have had, cross-bantering the night away.
I didn't need his assurances as to the band. Pound for pound, and you can quote me on this, the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain is the best musical entertainment in the country. That I don't know what else is out there I freely admit, but what's that got to do with anything? Critics routinely declare something or other the best play or novel ever written, without their having seen or read - how could they? - all the others. Indeed, my lukewarmness in the matter of most contemporary musical outfits - excluding the Dresden Staatskapelle and the like - is itself proof of the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain's genius: they wouldn't otherwise have caught my ear.
There are five men and two women in the orchestra. One of the women is slinky, within the parameters of the ukulele, the other alternative. They are both sardonic in a way I can only describe as exciting. The men are all versions of my ideal self. One puckishly bohemian, one very tall, laconic and deep voiced, one hard yet still avuncular, one seemingly withdrawn until he unleashes a demoniacal parody of Otis Redding - "'cause mama I'm so hard to handle now" - worth travelling a thousand miles to hear, and one sublimely sleepy-eyed, with an air of debauch which I put the best years of my life into trying, unsuccessfully, to acquire. I don't know any of their names. I don't have any of their photographs above my bed. I am an admirer not a fan. I don't do fan. It is forbidden by my religion.
I try explaining this to a couple I meet at the bar in the interval. It's the same with queuing, I tell them. Being a fan and queuing are both species of idolatry. The only person you should ever queue to see is God. For a moment it looks as though the woman, who is very drunk, is going to ask me where God is next appearing. A reasonable enough question, and one she is by no means the first person to have been troubled by. But her boyfriend, who is also very drunk, gets in before her. "So what is your religion?" he wants to know. "Presbyterian?"
What I can't decide, when the second half of the programme begins, is whether idolatry is the problem after all. It seemed like idolatry in the queue. And it seems like idolatry when the whooping starts. No one whoops at the Dresden Staatskapelle. Or no one "should" whoop at the Dresden Staatskapelle. In fact I'm told that that's exactly what promenaders did do when the Dresden Staatskapelle performed Bruckner's Seventh Symphony at the Albert Hall this summer, but that just underlines what I'm concerned about - the democratisation of performance.
Can you have democratic idolatry? Something of that sort seems to be afoot tonight, anyway, the audience loving itself in the Ukulele Orchestra, clapping and cheering every song as though they have never heard music in their lives before, but at the same time extravagantly celebrating their own familiarity with it.
Is this the Mamma Mia! syndrome? You go to hear what you already know and to be delighted with yourself for knowing it. That what you're singing along to is unadulterated mush is part of the pleasure. It compounds knowingness with knowingness. I think about having a quiet word with the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain. I want to put it to them that they must watch the insidious onward creep of the demos, that they are there to enthral us with their musicianship, and not just to rework for our indulgence, however brilliantly, that which is canonical. It is without doubt an awesome musical spectacle, punk pounded out on ukuleles. But so was Bach the last time I heard them. And there is no Bach tonight. Are they, God forbid, becoming a little too popular? It's an elitist joke, after all, the ukulele. It's not for everybody.
A "disgusting little ditty" was how Lord Reith described George Formby's "When I'm Cleaning Windows", before banning it from the airwaves. This should remind us that the ukulele has a proud, subversive, even underground tradition. The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain deserves its success - knighthoods at the very least for what they do with "Wuthering Heights" alone - but, intellectually, I still feel I shouldn't have to queue to hear them.

Anthony Stokes' hat-trick gave Celtic a 3-0 home win over St Johnstone as they moved 21 points clear at the Scottish Premiership summit.
The former Hibernian striker was the star of the show as he put the visitors to the sword on Sunday, opening the scoring after 15 minutes before two goals in three second-half minutes completed Neil Lennon's 150th victory as Celtic manager.
St Johnstone failed to register a single shot on target as Celtic goalkeeper Fraser Forster recorded his 12th consecutive league clean sheet, equalling a 43-year-old Scottish top-flight record.
Stokes got the first when he latched onto Leigh Griffiths' flick and fired home from the edge of the box.
St Johnstone could not get a foothold in the game and it was no surprise when the Republic of Ireland international put the hosts 2-0 up after 64 minutes, controlling Scott Brown's scooped cross and rifling past Alan Mannus from eight yards out.
And Stokes completed the third hat-trick of his Celtic career two minutes later he as he cut in from the left and hit a right-footed effort that beat Mannus at his near post.
The result sees Celtic extend their seemingly unassailable lead over Aberdeen at the top of the table, while St Johnstone remain in sixth, one point ahead of Hibernian.

Atlanta's Healthiest Employers
Time: 7:30 am - 9:30 am
Place: Georgia Aquarium
Study: Hospitals put $40B into state economy
Send this to a friend
- Dave Williams
- Staff Writer- Atlanta Business Chronicle
Georgia hospitals pumped nearly $40 billion into the state's economy in 2012, according to a new study released by the Georgia Hospital Association.
The state's hospitals employed more than 126,000 full- and part-time workers that year and indirectly were responsible for more than 287,000 other full-time jobs across Georgia, the report found.
"Georgia hospitals do much more than provide life-saving health care services," GHA President and CEO Earl Rogers said in a news release. "They are a major part of the economic vitality of the communities they serve."
Despite those economic contributions, the study also revealed financial strains affecting Georgia hospitals, largely driven by the growth in uncompensated care. In 2012, the state's hospitals provided more than $1.6 billion in unpaid care, an increase of about $60 million from 2011.
"Very few businesses can operate long term when nearly 20 percent of their customers cannot pay," Rogers said.
The GHA and other Georgia health-care organizations have urged Republican Gov. Nathan Deal and GOP legislative leaders to address the uncompensated care issue by expanding Medicaid eligibility through the Affordable Care Act.
However, the governor has declined to do so, citing concerns the state would be forced to absorb some of the costs of expanded Medicaid coverage starting in the fourth year of the program. The law provides that the federal government pick up the full cost during the first three years.

Journeyman QB gets two-year deal in Cleveland. Terry McCormick
The Cleveland Browns wanted to provide themselves with a fallback option and perhaps some competition for Brandon Weeden at quarterback, and may have done just that by signing veteran Jason Campbell.
Campbell, who spent last season with the Chicago Bears, is a former starter for both the Washington Redskins and Oakland Raiders during his eight-year NFL career.
"Jason is an established leader who has started a number of games in this league and has had success," said Browns coach Rob Chudzinski. "He brings us a veteran presence and a good set of physical tools. He played in a similar system when he was in Oakland and that will help in his transition."
At the very least, it provides the Browns another quarterback to push Weeden, last year's first-round pick, and Colt McCoy, who had started before Weeden was given the job last year.

TEHRAN- Iran raised the prospect on Tuesday of sending military ships close to the United States' Atlantic coast, in what would be a major escalation of tensions between the long-standing adversaries.
"Like the arrogant powers that are present near our marine borders, we will also have a powerful presence close to American marine borders," the head of the Navy, Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari said, according to the official IRNA news agency.
Speaking at a ceremony marking the 31st anniversary of the start of the 1980-1988 war with Iraq, Sayyari gave no details of when such a deployment could happen or the number or type of vessels to be used.
The declaration comes just weeks after Turkey said it would host a NATO early warning radar system which will help spot missile threats from outside Europe, including potentially from Iran . The decision has angered Tehran which had enjoyed close relations with Ankara.
And it comes a few months after Iran sent warships through the Suez canal, after the fall of former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, the first time the Islamic Republic had deployed navy vessels in the Mediterranean.
The United States and Israel have not ruled out military action against Iran if diplomacy fails to stop it getting nuclear weapons. Tehran denies it is developing nuclear arms saying its atomic programme is for purely peaceful purposes.
Iran has dismissed the threats, warning that it will respond by hitting U.S. interests in the Gulf and Israel if any such attack happened.
Analysts say Tehran could retaliate by launching hit-and-run strikes in the Gulf and by closing the Strait of Hormuz, the waterway where about 40 percent of all traded oil passes.
The Islamic state often launches military drills in the country to display its military capabilities amid persistent speculation about a possible U.S. or Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear facilities.

Brad Paisley Featuring LL Cool J "Accidental Racist"
Today country singer Brad Paisley released a new song called "Accidental Racist" where he attempts to explain that his "southern pride" should not be confused with bigotry and racism.
Somehow he convinced hip-hop ICON LL Cool J to join him down this path of struggle and despair with a verse that is sure to offend every African-American fiber of your being.
Without further ado, we present…"Accidental Racist"
What do you think of this pathetic, embarrassingly terrible, cringe-inducing song?

The State Board of Elections on Wednesday has a new policy that rejects any form of a photo ID that expired more than 12 months before Election Day. It approved the new provision Wednesday. Harrisonburg Republican State Senator Mark Obenshain says some Democrats, including Attorney General Mark Herring, want to undermine the photo ID law. Obenshain was a Wednesday guest on the Schilling Show. The Virginia ACLU has blasted the latest interpretation by the Board of Elections. An ACLU spokeswoman says her organization is getting calls from voters who complain the law is very confusing.

Rupiah rebounds as Indonesia formalises debt moratorium
Wednesday 28 January 1998
"What we have in mind is a temporary pause, so that we have time to reach an agreement between lenders and borrowers," said Radius Prawiro, a former cabinet minister appointed by President Suharto to help resolve the debt crisis. But he insisted Indonesia had no intention of seeking a national private debt moratorium.
Analysts said the announcement was vague, and made no mention of reform for Indonesia's unenforcable bankruptcy laws. A steering committee will be set up, including representatives of creditor banks, but there was no official word of how long the repayment freeze would remain in place.
But the uncertainty fostered by the moratorium was offset by the banking reforms, which will open Indonesian banks to foreign ownership and create a new body, the Indonesian Bank Restructuring Agency (IBRA), to take over and recover crippled banks.
Mari'e Muhammad, the finance minister, also announced government guarantees for depositors and creditors of commercial banks. Asia's markets are winding down for a long weekend due to the Chinese New Year and the Muslim holiday Eid al-Fitr, and the impact of the reforms on the markets will not be clear until next week.
The rupiah's plunge to a fifth of its value six months ago has made it impossibly expensive for companies to pay back dollar-denominated loans from foreign banks. Conservative estimates of private sector debt put it at $66bn (pounds 40bn), rendering most Indonesian companies technically insolvent.
Meanwhile Fitch IBCA, the credit rating agency, said Japanese banks faced "significant" risks as a result of the Asian crisis which, added to their other problems, could lead to downward rating adjustments.
Fitch IBCA estimated the extent of world-wide bank exposure to the south-east Asian region at more than $600bn.

Today's KNS has a guest editorial with the headline "Broader Medicare coverage would be good for Tennesseans."
We agree. Except the column is about expanding Medicaid, not Medicare. (We agree with expanding Medicaid, too.) The same error appears in the online edition headline. Also, this is a slightly edited version of the same column that ran in the Memphis Commercial Appeal on Dec. 9th. (They got the headline right.)
This seems like basic stuff that the major daily local paper should be able to get right. Do they even read what they publish?
I saw that headline this
I saw that headline this morning and got excited. Not that expanding Medicaid isn't exciting, I just have special interest in Medicare.
Oh com'on, Randy. Do you actually want them (KNS) to practice, you know, journalism?
STILL confused. From a Tom
STILL confused. From a Tom Humphrey piece today on the new Tennessee legislature: "The first bill pre-filed for the legislative session - by Sen. Brian Kelsy, R-Germantown - would block Haslam from implementing an expansion of Medicare coverage to more Tennesseans, as authorized but not required under the federal Affordable Care Act and U.S. Supreme Court ruling. Haslam is officially undecided on whether to seek an expansion, saying he sees the benefits but worries about the potential costs......"
[Boldface mine]
The next paragraphs talk about the Feds picking up the cost for the first 3 years and 90% of the cost thereafter and about how hopitals are lobbying for the expansion.
Srsly, even Tom Humphrey can't tell Medicare from Medicaid????
