Republican leaders defend Medicaid stance
Straining to be overheard above the chants of a protest group, Gov. Rick Perry, Texas Senators Ted Cruz and John Cornyn, along with other key state officials, Monday morning gave a full-throated defense of the state's rejection of Medicaid expansion as outlined in the federal Affordable Care Act. Mostly repeating earlier statements decrying Medicaid as […] [Read More]
State pays fewer Women's Health Program claims so far
The state has paid fewer January claims for low-income women to receive services through a high-profile health-care program so far this year than it had at the same point in 2012, according to figures Monday from the Texas Health and Human Services Commission. The information is incomplete because Women's Health Program providers have six months […] [Read More]
Perry suggests Republicans should nominate 'conservatives' for president
Sounding very much like a presidential candidate, Gov. Rick Perry told the Conservative Political Action Conference meeting in Washington Thursday that the Obama Administration was engaging in "bribery" by offering states substantial sums to expand Medicaid to low-income adults. At the same time, he called for the administration to give Texas "flexibility" to design a […] [Read More]
CPRIT recruitment grants given tacit go-ahead by Senate budget-writers
Senate Finance Committee members gave tacit approval Wednesday for the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas to proceed with recruitment scholar grants despite a moratorium on overall awards. Finance Committee Chairman Tommy Williams, R-The Woodlands, didn't ask for a formal vote but asked members to give a sense of how they would like the […] [Read More]
Analysis: Medicaid expansion would free state money for other things
Expanding Medicaid could make available $900 million in state general revenue funds that otherwise would be slated for health care as lawmakers work to pay for state priorities, according to a report released Tuesday. The analysis was prepared by Billy Hamilton Consulting for Texas Impact and Methodist Healthcare Ministries of South Texas, Inc, which support […] [Read More]
Bill could be health-care vehicle
State Rep. John Zerwas, a Simonton Republican who oversees human services on the House Appropriations Committee, is helping to keep open Texas' options for coming up with a way to draw down billions of federal dollars for health care for the poor. Zerwas on Friday filed House Bill 3791, which could serve as the vehicle […] [Read More]

Texas House GOP Caucus says 'no' to Medicaid expansion — under current rules
The state House Republican Caucus, meeting behind closed doors, voted overwhelmingly to oppose Medicaid expansion in Texas under the federal health law in its current form, said Rep. Brandon Creighton, a Conroe Republican who heads the caucus. GOP lawmakers said, however, that vigorous conversation is continuing on how to craft a solution that would make […] [Read More]
Medicaid in focus as HHSC officials vetted
The Health and Human Services Commission's top official, executive commissioner Kyle Janek, and the agency's inspector general answered questions on the future of Medicaid Monday at a Senate nominations committee hearing Monday. Janek, a Republican and former state representative and senator, was appointed last September by Gov. Rick Perry. At the hearing, the first step […] [Read More]
Senate budget-writers OK increase in women's health funding (UPDATE)
The Senate Finance Committee agreed Thursday to add $100 million to women's health services, including family planning. Health and Human Services Committee Chair Jane Nelson, a Flower Mound Republican who serves on Finance, said it was important for lawmakers to unite behind initiatives to protect women's health. The GOP-dominated Legislature cut family planning two years […] [Read More]

Eddie Johnson, a familiar name in high school, college and professional basketball lore in Illinois, has tossed his hat into the ring for the newly vacated head coaching position at the University
Chicagoans who are looking forward to seeing Simeon's Jabari Parker participate in the annual McDonald's All-America basketball game in 2013 will be disappointed.
Everybody is asking the same question: Can anyone derail Simeon's bid for a third Class 4A championship in a row and fifth state title in the last eight years?
Not likely.
How good is Jabari Parker?
Better than his father?
Better than Derrick Rose?
Good enough to rank among the top five players in Public League history?
If ESPN or CBS or NBC or ABC were telecasting the finals of the Illinois high school basketball tournament, they would jump at a chance to pit top-rated Simeon against second-rated Proviso East in

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West: Moving in Together!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
Wow. Looks like things really are serious between Kim Kardashian and Kanye West.
On the heels of the exciting Kim Kardashian baby news, insiders tell TMZ that Kimye (NOTE: We need a new nickname here…) has purchased an $11 million mansion in a gated community in Bel Air.
Kardashian and West purchased the property a few weeks ago and have already gutted most of the previous residence.
In its place, the twosome is reportedly building a 14,000 square foot dream house that will include a gym, movie theater, salon, bowling alley and two pools.
Included among Kimye's new neighbors will be Jennifer Aniston, Chris Paul and Joe Francis.
As for a wedding date or wedding plans? No news on that front.
It might help if Kim were to first divorce Kris Humphries.
thesetwo narcistic assholes dserve eachother!
Kim's going to need that gym once that baby is born. She's already twice her normal size.
Not that I'm rooting for her (or 'Ye for choosing her...), but I really hope her estranged husband doesn't find a way to use all of this against her in court. If it's possible, that is. Other than that, here's hoping all this shacking up and getting together doesn't blow up along the way. I've always felt like after Kanye's mother died, he became a different person....negatively.
i like Kimye! what is wrong with that nickname?
There goes the neighborhood!
How about calling them the tribe call Kwest. Seriously why bother coming out with a new nickname... but if you had to the tribe called Kwest would be hilarious

Check these out, too...Turn your leftover candy into a healthier treat5 best foods for gorgeous hair 5 food myths to keep in mind this ThanksgivingHere's why diet soda sucksWhat your food cravings are really trying to telling youI drink coffee almost every morning. Is it true that it can stunt or slow down my growth? Should I stop drinking it?
Check these out, too...
Nope, coffee doesn't stunt your growth. That's just a myth.
One cup of coffee (or another caffeinated drink like soda) a day probably won't do you any harm, but if you're drinking more than that, it might be a good idea to cut back a little, because too much caffeine can cause anxiety and interfere with your sleep. Generally, any drink high in caffeine is not going to hydrate you very much, and in order to stay at maximum energy to enjoy all of your activities, you should stick to drinks like water and juice, that are going to give you that necessary hydration.
If you have trouble getting yourself going in the morning without a shot of caffeine, make sure you're getting enough sleep at night, exercising regularly and drinking enough water. If you're searching for a morning beverage to replace your coffee, try herbal tea or green tea, which still has some caffeine, but less than coffee.

I agree with the reviewer below. This product provides great coverage at a decent price and the squeeze tube lasts awhile. I really liked this TM in the winter, it made my skin glowy and dewey. However, now that it is getting warmer out I find that I feel and look like an oil slick by the end of the day. So I will be continuing my search for my HG TM.
This product definitely has both good and bad qualities!
- great coverage! (i have no complaints on this..i LOVE how it covers my redness)
-not a bad price
- lasts a long time
- shiny (I love that in winter, in summer not a big fan)
- SMELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (horrible sunscreen smell)
- smudges (my boyfriend had to change two white t-shirts within 30 minutes!)
NONETHELess, I wore this product A LOT since I purchased it. It kept me satisfied Im not going to lie...i got used to the smell, waited until it completely tried before I hugged my boyfriend (lol) and I've always been a big fan of a dewy look, so the shininess didn't bother me TOO much. However, I believe I can find a TM that does not have the negatives that this one does. WOuld not repurchase...im once on the quest for the perfect TM...got i've tried soooo many already.
This is so incredibly awful, I wish I could give it negative lippies. Luckily, I didn't actually buy this crap! Sephora screwed up yet another order (is anyone else having this problem?), and this was included in the package instead of something else. In theory, the shade they sent should be my color, but it's SO dark and orange-looking (this is the lightest shade, and I'm really fair). Gee, thanks, Sephora, for letting me keep your screw-up. Probably it's because you can't even GIVE this stuff away! Greasy, thick, obvious, ugly color. Bleh. Just don't.
I got this recently because I was finding my BE to be too dry during the winter. It's my first TM and I find it to be worth the price $30CND at Sephora. I'm sure it's not the best TM out there, it takes awhile to settle into the skin, but a little bit goes a long way. It has decent coverage but isn't really going to hide anything major. I needed to put my regular moisturizer on before I applied this because my skin is dry in the winter and balmshelter doesn't provide enough moisture. I like it because it's fast to apply, just dab and blend well.
Oh boy. I couldn't even give this a decent test-run because it was just too orange on me. It looks orange coming out of the tube and, well-blended into my light, yellow-toned skin, looks peach. Are there really folks out there that have apricot undertones? I just don't understand. The texture, etc. seemed OK, but again--the color put me off so much that I couldn't give it even a day of wear. Maybe if I swing by another Sephora I'll check out the Light color. But they really need to expand their color range. Anyway, since I don't fancy the idea of a peachy face and yellowy neck, I will stick to my Laura Mercier Nude.
I bought time Balm in Light and Balm Shelter in Light based on the reviews here. Both are going back. Have to say I am quite surprised at how much everyone really likes both. The Balm Shelter has a chemical smell, but does go away within minutes, I assume its the sunscreen. It goes on well and seems to blend into my very fair skin. The first day I tried, one of my boys asked me if I put a fake tanner on my face. I only had this on for a bit, and became quite aware of slight orange it gave me. Washed off and tried next day with a lighter hand. Looked good for first few hours, got some shine so powdered over it some, but seemed to have an orange glow again. I even asked people I worked with and everyone says what I was doing before looked better. Wanted to try one more time, so this morning around 8am put some on, blush, eyeliner and mascara. Its 11am and just caught a glance in mirror, oily and orange! Ive also noticed a few pimples, like the oily ones that pop up right under thin skin layer in last couple days. Im going to wash my face off now and pack this up for return. Im really glad it has worked for others so well. I have combination skin and almost always where the 2nd lightest foundation color or light when only a few available. So far, mixing my own minerals have worked best for me for color and sometimes mix with serums. Until the next try. . .

Meh.. This stuff looked ok at first, but it oxidizes and turns orange and oily after a while. It looked very unnatural, orange and shiny on my face. This went back to Sephora.
I like Tarte's smooth operator much better than this.

Wow!!! Inexpensive per ounce. This is the perfect product to add moisture and erase the white cast left by many sunscreens. This does not look fake. It makes your skin look better but doesn't look like you put makeup on!
UPDATE: This stuff is fantastic. Totally removes the white cast left by sunscreen but doesn't look like makeup. Just looks like good skin.

Limited colour choice, but I think it's still fairly alright, as long as you're not very pale or very dark. Anyway, I'm glad for all the people for whom this worked because if it looks as good on their faces as this did on my hand when I tested it out, then it's definitely HG material. But when I actually bought it and tried wearing it, it didn't give me any of the promised polish or glow, and instead, it just never sank into my skin. Just sat there and made me look oily. I've tried several different ways to make it work, with primers, powders, anything to help it settle and to mattify my skin without killing the dewy look that I was going for, but to no avail. I'll use up the tube just because I waited ages to get this, but definitely not a repurchase.
Excellent TM for my combo skin. Gives good coverage with no shine. Lasts all day. Leaves skin looking even, yet natural. Definitely highly recommend!

Outsourcing the IT operations, support and associated infrastructure maintenance has been the norm for large enterprises over the last decade. Typically the multi-year IT outsourcing contracts cover the following aspects:
- Application Development Services: These will be the set of resources and other costs, like environment, required to perform the custom development of various applications and sometimes customization and configuration of COTS products.
- Application Testing Services: Even though testing is covered as part of development, to make this step more independent most enterprises outsource testing activities as a separate entity.
- Application Sustain Services: This normally constitutes a biggest portion of outsourcing contracts, such that the applications are running without disruption to businesses and any incidents are handled within the defined SLA Levels. Also Sustain Services are governed by the well-established process of ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library).
- Infrastructure Management Services: These will cover the hosting, operations and support of servers and storage, network infrastructure systems. Sometimes they may be hosted in the data centers of the enterprise or hosted with external service providers.
Multi-Year IT Contracts in the Cloud Era
Over the last two years, most enterprises reinvented themselves with the Hybrid Delivery model, whereby the business processes have been realized with a combination of the traditional data center, private clouds and public clouds. Also SaaS (Software as a Service) has become a major force in supporting enterprise business capability needs.
CIOs need to re-assess the cost and delivery models of most multi-year IT contracts due to the following reasons.
- Unlike standard sizing techniques like Function Point Analysis that are meant for large-scale development projects, there is no universally accepted estimation and sizing techniques available for these large outsourcing deals. Most of the time vendor organizations adopt a combination of multiple legacy techniques to come together with a final pricing model. Most of the time factors like the number of FTEs incumbent vendors already deployed, ticket volume and similar factors play a major role.
- The estimation techniques adopted a couple of years of ago, before SaaS and Cloud become mainstream, have become largely irrelevant in now. As most of the business processes that have been served in-house have now been brokered by the enterprises and hence the supporting needs will vary drastically.
- Enterprises have to shift their custom development budgets towards SaaS evaulation or cloud-based integration (CBI) techniques.
- Budget allocations have to accommodate for proof of concept and innovation enabled by areas like Big Data and real-time analytics
From the above points it is a priority for CIOs to evaluate the multi-year IT contracts and shift the priorities from certain areas and move them to other areas so that the capability of IT to serve the business is adapted to the new realities.
Areas Affected by the Hybrid Cloud Delivery Model
The following are the typical line items in a multi-year IT contract that needs to be revisited so that their allocations are fully justified.
- Problem Management: In the past much of the time has been spent on fixing the production ABENDs of various custom development code. However, with SaaS and cloud usage these are expected to be reduced a lot. Also in a SaaS delivery model IT service personnel from the enterprises will not be responsible to fix the issues, rather direct them to the SaaS vendors.
- Production Job Management: Maintaining production jobs, scheduling them, monitoring them and restarting them have been the core activities of many production support staff in custom application management. However with automation being the key of most cloud IaaS providers or private cloud platforms, much of these tasks have been simplified and can be revisited.
- Preventive & Adaptive Maintenance: Earlier application support staff needs to work with multiple third-party vendors to ensure that proper versions of the operating systems and patches are maintained, so that the applications don't break in the future. However, with the adoption of PaaS (Platform as a Service) and SaaS (Software as a Service) much of the effort spent on this can be shifted to the cloud providers.
- Service Continuity Management: Setting up the recovery tests and testing for disaster recovery have been a daunting task in the past. In fact due to the complexities of this operation we have seen some enterprises don't even have proper disaster recovery sites. However cloud has simplified the creation of disaster recovery sites in different geographies and provisioning them has become much easier.
- License Management: The enterprise licensing model in the COTS and Custom applications era is much different that the pricing models adopted by SaaS applications and hence there requires a revised planning on this front.
- Application Development Services: In the past enterprises used to give Service Requests for custom development of various applications and a fixed pool of resources are typically allocated for the development, however the adoption of SaaS, PaaS and Cloud Based Integration will certainly alter the allocation of resources towards this. Also much of the budget allocations for new large scale custom development efforts can be revisited if the enterprises decided to utilize SaaS as a service delivery model.
An exhaustive list of services that are part of the multi-year IT contracts may vary from enterprise to enterprise; however, one of the important priorities for CIOs is to revisit them and allocate their resources appropriately towards business capabilities and innovation which is one of the major enablers of the hybrid delivery model.

He went to the Parkview Field hill Sunday afternoon as the hottest pitcher in the Midwest League, so it figured that it was a hot-button assignment that awaited Zach Eflin and his TinCaps teammates.
End not one, but two, four-game losing streaks.
One skid was the four straight losses overall the TinCaps were lugging around like a concrete block.
The other was the four straight losses to their opponent, the Dayton Dragons.
Three-plus hours and a walk-off 4-3 win later, both skids were a memory.
Two runs in the bottom of the ninth by a pair of pinch-hitters erased a 3-2 Dayton lead, and ended a back-and-forth game that saw the lead change twice in the last three innings.
Alberth Martinez's pinch-hit single between first and second drove in Tyler Stubblefield to tie it with one out in the ninth, and then Diego Goris' two-out, pinch-hit single to left brought home Martinez for the win in front of 7,902 fans.
They knew it was a do-or-die situation, TinCaps manager Jose Valentin said, 10 minutes or so after Martinez crossed the plate pumping his fist and was immediately mobbed by his teammates. This is it. You've gotta do it. My team's gonna lose, so I can't let my team down.
They went up there with a good plan, got pitches to hit, put the ball in play and came through with hits.
Eflin, meanwhile, did his bit, giving up four hits and one unearned run in 5 1/3 innings. But it was the bats that got it done this time for the TinCaps (61-57, 18-31 second half), who shook down three Dayton pitchers for 13 hits, led by Gabriel Quintana, who went 4 for 4 with two doubles. No. 1 draft pick Hunter Renfroe went 2 for 4 – he now has four hits in his first two games in Fort Wayne – and Tyler Stubblefield and Miguel Del Castillo each had two hits.
Renfroe's leadoff home run in the sixth set the TinCaps up with a 2-1 lead, but a two-run seventh for the Dragons (55-64, 27-23) erased it. Tanner Rahier's two-run, two-out single was the big blow after Sammy Diaz and Jeff Gelalich blistered one-out singles.
But the Dragons, who six times left baserunners hanging at third base, needed more than that on this day.
We had our chances earlier, Valentin said. We were lucky to have two pinch-hitters who came through in the right situation.
And when Goris drove the ball into left field with Martinez at second, there was no question about sending Martinez home.
In a situation like that, you cannot afford to be scared or be shy, Valentin said. You've got the game tied in that situation, you've got to put some pressure on the defense. The way we've been swinging right now, I can't afford to just stop (him).
You've just to keep putting pressure on the defense and if they execute, that's part of the job. But I've got to be aggressive.

He recaptured the belt the following year by beating Manny Siaca then made defenses against Siaca, in a rematch, and Julio César Green before losing a split decision in a unification bout to Sven Ottke in Germany, 2003.
Later in 2003, he lost to WBO title holder Joe Calzaghe by KO in the 2nd round. He became the first man to floor the Welshman but was then on the receiving end of 26 unanswered punches and was stopped.
Mitchell retired after the fight, then after more than four years away from the pro game returned to the ring in 2007.

Fore! Love! Strike! Home run! TKO!
Wii Sports Club feels like a new experience, with the addition of crisp high-definition graphics and Wii MotionPlus technology, as well as creative uses of the Wii U GamePad. For example, in Wii Sports Club - Baseball, the pitcher aims a fastball, change-up or curveball by moving the GamePad around in real space and pressing a button to throw. If the ball gets hit in the air, the player holds the GamePad to track and catch the fly ball - just like they would with a baseball glove! In Wii Sports Club - Golf, players place the GamePad on the floor. The ball will appear on the GamePad controller's screen and then "fly" to the TV screen when players take their golf swing using the Wii Remote Plus controller.
Using the game's new online multiplayer mode, players no longer have to wait for a reunion or holiday gathering to play with friends and family members who live far away. Gamers from all over the country who own the game and have a broadband Internet connection can play Wii Sports Club together. Players also can join a club to represent their regions and build online communities with fellow club members by sending tips, pep talks and other messages via Miiverse.
There are so many new features in Wii Sports Club that players will feel like they are playing the game for the first time. The added GamePad features elicit the same "You have to try this!" reactions generated after playing the original Wii Sports.
