Lines already are drawn on what New Hampshire should do.
Gov. Maggie Hassan said the state stands to lose about $1 million in federal funds per day for every day past Jan. 1, 2014, that Medicaid expansion is delayed."Accepting the $2.5 billion in federal funds available for Medicaid expansion is critical for boosting our economy, transforming our health-care system and providing needed health coverage for tens of thousands of New Hampshire working families," Hassan said.Hassan wants the Legislature to hold a special session to vote on the commission's recommendations.
The commission members are:
• Rep. Neal Kurk of Weare, the ranking Republican on the House Finance Committee who sits on the division that oversees appropriations to the Department of Health and Human Services.
• Sen. Andy Sanborn, a Bedford Republican and chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee.
• Sen. Nancy Stiles, a Hampton Republican and chairwoman of the Senate Health, Education and Human Services Committee.
• Sen. Peggy Gilmour, a Hollis Democrat and member of the Senate Health, Education and Human Services Committee.
• Dr. Travis Harker, president of the New Hampshire Medical Society.

MARIETTA, Ohio (WSAZ) --The case against a man accused of running a prostitution ring has been sent to a grand jury following a preliminary hearing Monday.
A Washington County, Ohio judge ruled probable cause was found on drug and prostitution charges against 37-year-old James Walker. Human trafficking charges against Walker were dropped.
Walker originally told police his name was Xavier Freeman when he was arrested two weeks ago near a Marietta motel.
Investigators say Walker was a pimp working in Ohio and West Virginia.
Prosecutors say he used force, fear and intimidation to force the women into prostitution.
"To keep an alias like that and to keep that sort of fake identity is because you know you're engaged in criminal activity," says Washington County Assistant Prosecutor Kevin Rings.
"The state did not produce sufficient evidence on any kind of compelling, having any of the prostitutes come in and testify or anything like that," says Ray Smith, Washington County Public Defender.
Following the hearing the judge set Walker's bond at $75,000.
The Washington Co. Sheriff's Office says they still haven't identified the man calling himself "Xavier Freeman."
Freeman is accused of forcing six women to sleep with men for money. Investigators say he got at least half of that money.
It all started when a confidential informant led police to a hotel on Pike Street in Marietta.
Investigators say when Freeman and seven women left the hotel in a car they were pulled over for a traffic violation.
They say during a search they found nearly $7,000 in cash and 181 Hydromorphone pills on Freeman.
They also say Freeman had a New York ID, but said he was from Bluefield, W.Va.
The Sheriff's Office says the women are from all over the U.S., and they say other places he has worked are Charleston, W.Va. and Roanoke, Virginia.
Investigators say Freeman has been in our area 11 or 12 days, moving from one hotel to the next on both sides of the river.
"Part of the problem is he is not cooperating with us. He gave us a social security number which belonged to a girl who is incarcerated in New Jersey. And he won't tell us where he was born or parents so it's hard to establish his identity," said Sheriff Larry Mincks.
Besides the human trafficking charge, he is charged with possession of a controlled substance, compelling prostitution and promoting prostitution.
Four of the women were also arrested.
They say Shaasia Jones was helping Freeman in the ring and she is charged with complicity.
Tamisha Lowe and Tiffany Pendergrass are charged with obstructing official business.
Reba Grahovac is charged with possession of drug abuse instruments.
Investigators say some of the women have drug dependency issues and relied on Freeman for pills so they wouldn't get sick.
"There's been some violence with firearms, beatings, we discovered in speaking with some of the individuals. So we believe that they're probably scared for their lives. Right now, basically the investigation has just started. There's a lot of work to be done to basically find more of the victims," says Det. Ryan Huffman, with the Marietta Police Department.
Police say they're working with federal human trafficking task force agents to make this a federal case.
Freeman is in the Washington Co. Jail.

Project created for Durobor, a Belgian firm that has produced glassware for almost a century.
One mould is used for three different glasses: small, medium, large.

Known for her unique approach to fashion photography, Viviane Sassen has taken yet another stylistic detour in her latest collection, which focuses on the inhabitants of a remote village on the Upper Suriname River. Largely shot in black and white, the informal photos explore Sassen's personal connection to the village, which is inhabited by the ancestors of former slaves who escaped Dutch rule. "This project is an exploration of the beauty of the everyday," writes Sassen in her introduction, "an investigation of the sculptural qualities of the ordinary."]]>
This book accompanies group exhibition, The Nakeds, which is devoted to drawings of the body exposed. The Nakeds takes as its starting point selected drawings of the single figure by Egon Schiele. From here it considers work by artists from the post-war period to the present day.
The naked body is frequently the physical terrain artists traverse in search of the inner self. How to represent love, shame, solitude and sexual yearning? Drawing from the self or life model, from reproduction or the imagination, has provided artists with the freedom to explore desires, fears and fantasies.
This catalogue includes , amongst others, work from highly acclaimed artists such as Joseph Beuys, Louise Bourgeois, Tracey Emin, Paul McCarthy, Chris Ofili, Egon Schiele, Nancy Spero, Andy Warhol and Franz West. Artist Nicola Tyson contributes Dear Egon Schiele, a new letter in her ongoing series of letters to dead male artists.
Additional texts include essays by exhibition co-curators, artist David Austen and art historian Dr Gemma Blackshaw, who will investigate Schiele's drawings of the single figure, the contested issue of art and pornography in Vienna around 1900, and Schiele as seen through the lens of contemporary female artists.]]>

Almost five years after first offering the strategy to investors, Lumina Fund Management has launched its flagship as a hedge fund.
The firm unveiled Lumina Partners this month with $25.3 million in initial assets, HFMWeek reports. Lumina has run the equity long/short strategy as a separately managed account product since 2007.
The strategy relies on fundamental, quantitative and behavioral bases to invest both in liquid stocks and equity derivatives. It returned 5.3% last year, 11.4% in 2010 and 35.6% in 2009.
The initial capital for the fund came from both outside investors and New York-based Lumina itself. The strategy will remain available as a managed account.
Lumina Partners has a $1 billion capacity and a $1 million minimum investment requirement. It charges 2% for management and 20% for performance, with no lockup and quarterly liquidity.

A:The pants have an internal draw cord, which would allow you to adjust the waist. This might make you want to pay attention more to length when choosing your size.Answered on 1/17/2013 by Community Answer from None
A:You may be OK with the XL. The waistband is elastic with a drawstring, so you should still be able to get a comfortable fit even with the XL.Answered on 1/18/2013 by Ryan from Holabird Sports

text: I was agonizing over whether to order an 18 or 20. I got the 18. It fits perfectly and it looks great. I would love it in another color. I am 51 and wanted something that looks good on a heavy woman but doesn't look matronly. I feel light as air and I look put together--not naked and not squished. I wouldn't be embarrassed standing next to someone more fit. Thank you.

Quite simply, the most sophisticated and pound for pound most dangerous vehicle in the skies of the Cosmic Era
The second of three star fighters launched by the Oraki immediately after the war with the Word of Creation, the Wasp is a short-flight, non atmospheric fighter designed for heavy firepower and survivability.
The first of the space superiority vehicles to be launched by the newly independant Oraki after the war with the Word of Creation, the Spinner is an inexpensive vehicle, designed for high mobility and simple maintaince. Meanwhile, a single idea drives the entirety of it's armarment; that the only difference between a rocket and a particle beam is the opening.
The Baleful Eyes hang in the space lanes near the Sanctuary of the Oraki, standing ever-watchful vigil in the name of their safety. The first to sense, the first to see, they are a lynchpin of the world's defense.
"Space farming ain't like jumping through hyperspace boy! You got have patience, lots of water and thousands of kilometers of tubing."
A 100-word piece of Sci-fi minutia
Some stories call it the first real warship, others just Typhoon. But they all agree on one thing, the ship is one of the most elite in the galaxy.
She was our first warship. By god we weren't going to roll over and show those damned arrogant space bastards our bellies.
Arthur Eastmorland, retired Welder
Perhaps the rarest combat vessels in known space, the Crystalline Altercation Tools are the Thoron's approach to war, on the unlikely occasion that they can be roused to it.
The smallest of the Kel'Regar combat vessels, the Parasite-Fighter is an impossibly agile and quick fighter craft, though it lacks the damage output and staying power of more conventional vessels.
This tremendous colony ship is the largest ship of the Kel'Regar, grown and built in stages, birthed within the great 'dry' dock of Regar-kel-Osh. Fully organic, this ship is the ultimate expression of the Kel'Regar's power.
In a binary star system circled by four dead, scared planets, a shell of asteroids, and one of the largest intrastellar dust clouds on this side of the quadrant the Silvers are one of the strangest and most enigmatic groups not quite known. Their two giant, red, dying suns leave the system cold and foreboding. They accept no strangers, much to the chastisement of those miners lusting after the rich deposits that span the system. Those few who ignore the shrieking klaxons of the warning beacons meet sleek, silver ships, and then; Oblivion.
Of the little known about this reclusive group a few details are assured, they were founded by some insanely rich (and perhaps insane) personage in ages long past, their ships are feared and envied by nearly every spacer alive, and they are the best mercenaries money can buy, provided you can actually afford them.
The largest warship of the Terran Hegemony capable of landing on Earth and launching again into orbit.
The first power cores
Ships, that have character, are the best means to get to the stars.
An old, misanthropic and paranoid man feels his time is coming. There are sons to leave his fortune to, but they are not worth it, not a dime do they deserve! And he doesn't really trust anyone else. And so he has made a decision: as a part of his last will, his henchmen are instructed to burn and destroy all his holdings, buildings as harvest. The lands shall be auctioned off, the proceeds used to pay the servants. Nothing shall stay behind. Nothing.
Depending on the status of the grumpy old man, this weird occurrence may be only a family drama, or it may end up bringing an entire region into chaos. Or the son(s) have found what should happen, and want to prevent it before their sick father dies.

It's a plan that builds on an older plan. Last year, LB 800 was signed into law. That enacted sweeping reforms in truancy prevention and juvenile justice – if a child was truant for more than 20 days of the school year, the county attorney would get involved, and the parents and children might find themselves in court or facing fines. That led to an influx of truancy cases that county attorneys...

Have you ever stopped to think about how the breakup of AT&T revolutionized the information and communications technology market? Most people probably haven't, but in 1984, the end of the regulated monopoly ushered in an era of unprecedented competition and innovation.
For those not familiar with the story, AT&T broke up in 1984 after it decided to end a long, drawn-out lawsuit brought on by the U.S. Department of Justice because AT&T was too much of a monopoly. AT&T had to either spin off its 22 local operating companies into seven Bell holding companies while keeping control of its equipment manufacturing and research and development operations, or relinquish control of equipment manufacturing and R&D while retaining control of its local operations. AT&T officials chose the former, but they never seemed to shake off their reputation as a monopoly even though the government made the company split off its assets.
Still think "revolutionized" is too strong a characterization? Google the AT&T breakup on your iPad or use your mobile phone to ask a friend, and in the process you will use three products whose existence is largely part a direct result of that divestiture.
While the information and communications technology market flourishes, the same cannot be said for the financial services system. In the aftermath of the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, it is credit-delivery products and innovation that will stimulate economic growth. However, marketplace advances aren't keeping pace with innovation.
This isn't about products like the subprime mortgages; those will forever provide cautionary tales about greed.
In fairness, the overwhelming majority of Americans had nothing to do with that fiasco, but nonetheless continue to pay an enormous price. In a recent speech on the nation's slow recovery, John Williams, president and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, cited tight credit as a byproduct of the housing bust and emphasized what we all know, that for many, credit is more difficult to find. Moreover, Mr. Williams said, "Tight credit is among the factors that work to reduce desired spending by household, businesses and government below the level consistent with full employment."
To better understand this stagnation, consider how banks constitute the foundation of the financial regulatory system dating back to the National Bank Act of 1864. In 1861, when a national banking system was in the works, Treasury Secretary Salmon Chase recommended that the banking system be chartered by the federal government. The 1864 law took Chase's model and established a federal-state "dual banking system" that outlasted the Civil War and survives to this day.
The language of this act created a federal office in the Treasury Department called the Comptroller of the Currency. The comptroller required each newly chartered national bank to give government bonds to the Treasury "in an amount equal to $30,000 or one-third of its capital, whichever was greater." However, after this requirement was revoked in 1913, the role of federally chartered national banks administered by the Office of the Comptroller has continued to be significant in the national economy. The act spurred the creation of powerful nationwide banks such as Citibank, the Bank of America and thousands of local banks.
Because the language of this act has remained largely unchanged, banks continue to dominate - if not monopolize - the market nearly 150 years later. It is because of this act that the federal government spent $200 billion bailing out Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citigroup and other nationwide banks in 2008.
Given their prevailing 20th-century mentality and saddled with new and burdensome regulations, banks have little incentive to develop affordable credit options to serve the needs of millions of American consumers. I'm not talking about the Warren Buffetts of the world; I'm talking about people who wake up every day worried about the future - which unfortunately accounts for most of us. A report released by the Corporation for Enterprise Development found that 127.5 million people are liquid-asset poor, meaning that a sudden loss in household income would leave them below the poverty line in just three months.
Real progress lies in old-fashioned entrepreneurship; this is the same kind of innovation that took us from a rotary-dial land line to a cellphone and from analog television to digital cable. Emerging technology in the non-bank financial space is a natural progression from a bank-centered economic system.
Yet qualified trendsetters are stymied by a regulatory environment resistant to business models other than traditional banks. Marketplace innovations are unduly restricted by an antiquated financial system that has failed to keep up with the changing demands of consumers. The government needs to realize that, like AT&T, national banking giants eventually need to be broken up and weaned off heavy government subsidies.
That way, other competitors in the marketplace can spur innovation in consumer finance without having to worry about too much government regulation.

Love this bra!

Comments about Womens Moving Comfort Fiona Sports Bra:
I really love the Fiona bra. I have a couple of these bras now and they have been a life saver. I nursed my daughter for a year and suffered through terrible nursing bras that gave me no support. I had another child last year and was not looking forward to another year of terrible support. When I was ordering something else, I asked the road runner sports operator about nursing bras. She said they did not have any but that they had this bra with velcro and many women used it for nursing. THIS WAS GREAT ADVICE. I wear these bras constantly. I am ready for nursing but I am also ready for running down the road next to my daughter riding her bike or chasing my crawling son. I cannot stand to bounce and the Fiona bra takes care of that: no bouncing! I love this bra for regular working out and for nursing! Thank you road runner sports for suggesting this bra!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Best Sports Bra Ever

About Me Comfort-oriented, Conservative, Practical
Comments about Womens Moving Comfort Luna Sports Bra:
After trying several different sports bras I have finally found one that doesn't chaff, provides good support and coverage. I also like bras that have closures on the back and not a pull over. I use it for running 25-30 miles per week. I will be buying several more.

About Me Practical
Comments about Womens Champion Shape T-Back Sports Bra:
I have purchased over a dozen different sports bras and this bra is by far the best for runners with large breasts. I wear this under a sports tank top (with a shelf bra in it) and my breasts do not bounce at all. Make sure you do not dry in the dryer and this will last for a long time

- Capital controls;
- financial crisis;

We study the transitional dynamics of financial integration in emerging economies using a two-sector model with a collateral constraint on external debt and trading costs incurred by foreign investors. The probability of a financial crisis displays overshooting; it rises sharply initially and then falls sharply, but remains non-zero in the long run. While equity holdings fall permanently, bond holdings initially fall, but rise after the probability of a crisis peaks. Conversely, asset returns and asset prices first rise and then fall. These results are in line with the post-globalization dynamics observed in emerging markets, and the higher frequency of crises that they display.

St. John's Wort for Weight Control
Why Do Dieters Use It?*
Some dieters say that St. John's wort helps improve energy and alertness and relieves stress and anxiety.
What Do the Advocates Say?*
St. John's wort is well established as a remedy for mild to moderate depression. Since depression can lead to weight gain, and since medications with actions similar to that of St. John's wort have been used for weight loss, some people have proposed that St. John's wort can be useful for weight loss. However, no research at all has investigated whether St. John's wort has any value for this purpose.

The backend part of your company supports these profit centers.
In addition, many of the words used started to take on slightly different meanings, depending
on the context in which they are used. It's probably some mix of the two, so I
have to give him props for not going too far in either direction.

Publisher: Samhain Publishing
Business and pleasure don't mix…until emotion enters the scene.
Charlotte Richards didn't get to be one of Hollywood's top talent managers by dating her clients. When it comes to her career, her heart is not part of the contract—no matter how enticing the star.
From the moment she steps into Sean Maxwell's fabulous home, though, the cool, professional persona she's worked so hard to build threatens to melt in desire hotter than Sean's sexy R&B lyrics.
Sean's attraction to Charlotte is nothing new, at least not to him. He fell for her the moment he spotted her at a celebrity gala years ago. Now, with his old manager kicked to the curb, it's the perfect time to bring her into his life.
The sparks between them blow Sean's plan to take things slow right off the charts. And his determination to win her runs into overtime when the ghosts of his past threaten to destroy their one chance at love.
More information to come: www.sheliagoss.com.
Flames of Passion by Kayla Perrin
Their spark is burning hot
Betrayed by love in the past, Nya Lowe has vowed to steer clear of future heartbreak. But when she sees her deceitful ex at a party, she does something totally out of character and puts the moves on sexy San Diego firefighter Tyler Johansen. Her payback plan backfires when her counterfeit "boyfriend" starts breaking down her defenses
kiss by sizzling kiss.
Tyler risks his life every day, but he isn't ready to gamble with his heart again. Yet ever since the sultry photographer kissed him, all he wants is to keep Nya in his arms. As they stoke the flames of a dangerous desire, a suspicious fire and near-fatal collision raise the stakes for them. Will they both be burned again? Or can they trust each other enough to turn their pretend romance into a forever love?
The Way You Love Me by Donna Hill
Making a case for love…

The Betrayed by Heather Graham
Sleepy Hollow isn't so sleepy anymore…
One night, New York FBI agent Aiden Mahoney receives a visitor in a dream—an old friend named Richard Highsmith. The very next day he's sent to Sleepy Hollow because Richard's gone missing there.
Maureen—Mo—Deauville now lives in the historic town and works with her dog, Rollo, to search for missing people. She's actually the one to find Richard…or more precisely his head, stuck on a statue of the legendary Headless Horseman.
Mo and Aiden, a new member of the Krewe of Hunters, the FBI's unit of paranormal investigators, explore both past and present events to figure out who betrayed Richard, who killed him and now wants to kill them, too. As they work together, they discover that they share an unusual trait—the ability to communicate with the dead. They also share an attraction that's as intense as it is unexpected…if they live long enough to enjoy it!
