More than rhetoric needed to solve VA's problems
From all the indignant rhetoric and finger-pointing in Washington these days, you would think the current Department of Veterans Affairs scandal erupted overnight.
Understandably, recent allegations that delayed medical care led to as many as 40 patient deaths at the Phoenix VA hospital are extremely troubling.
Equally unsettling are new reports that patient appointment schedules at several facilities nationwide were manipulated to meet VA guidelines and earn employees bonuses for on-time performance.
But the bureaucratic mess that has rocked the overburdened veterans' health care system and led to VA Secretary Eric Shinseki's resignation isn't new. Some of the issues that led to the current uproar the VA's massive backlog of claims and long waits for patient appointments have been the subject of several congressional hearings in the past decade.
Against the backdrop of the latest shocking revelations, two of our area's Washington lawmakers acknowledged they were informed of significant problems at Temple's VA hospital more than two years ago.
Both U.S. Rep. John Carter, R-Round Rock, and U.S. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, confirmed they received a January 2012 report from the inspector general of the Department of Veterans Affairs that outlined several problems with the Olin E. Teague Veterans Medical Center in Temple.
The two-year-old report cited issues with inappropriate scheduling procedures for patients, as well as prolonged wait times leading to delays in cancer diagnostic tests and unclean medical equipment. A Temple VA spokeswoman claims the problems there were addressed quickly.
For his part, Carter claims it was his inquiry to the VA that led to the generation of the 2012 report, noting constituents brought several issues to his attention. However, his office never produced a news release on the matter, ostensibly because the constituents didn't authorize sharing of their information. Since the inspector general's report is a public document, available on the VA website, the privacy argument seems to be a bit of a stretch.
Cornyn's office claims to have contacted the Department of Veterans Affairs repeatedly after the report was released in an attempt to get more information on the backlogs but didn't elaborate.
Even more puzzling than the lawmakers' silence on the 2012 report is the fact that the Temple facility received recognition from the VA both before and after the report was issued. The 2012 award packet noted the issue of incorrectly reported desired appointments was corrected through training of "front line employees" in October 2011.
The fact that the inspector general found serious flaws in the Temple VA's operations while at the same time the department cited the hospital for excellence may illustrate the magnitude of the massive bureaucracy's oversight issues.
Also, the question remains as to whether the scheduling issue was resolved.
A representative from a Fort Hood federal employees union said Friday a delegation that included several Temple VA workers traveled to Washington in February of 2012, 2013 and again this year to complain that the manipulation of patient scheduling was still going on at the hospital. Each time they visited, they met with Carter's deputy chief of staff, he said.
These claims must be investigated thoroughly. If Carter was shown documented evidence that the scheduling problem in Temple persists, it is disingenuous for him to allege a cover-up by the administration on the current VA scandal.
Obviously, lawmakers of both parties have every reason to be outraged at the latest revelations. But they should be driven by concern for our nation's veterans, not by the desire to score political points.
Moving forward, the administration, Congress and interim VA secretary must resolve to do what it takes to streamline the VA's bureaucracy, remove ineffective administrators and provide the necessary resources to bring timely, high-quality care to our nation's deserving veterans.
It's time to move past the rhetoric and get something done.
Longview News-Journal. June 8, 2014.
Slow down, look at facts in EPA's pollution rules
Much of the official Texas response to new regulations that aim to reduce carbon pollution from power plants falls firmly into the category of "knee jerk."
As might be expected, the issue has become election-year fodder and the shrill sounds of politicians can be heard across the state. It isn't a pleasant noise.
In fact, so little were they concerned with what the regulations actually say that 29 members of the Texas congressional delegation fired off a letter to the White House in protest before the final plan was even issued.
We would like to encourage a more reasonable and thoughtful approach, though that has somewhat gone out of style these days. An objective look at how Texas and the nation will be affected by the guidelines issued this past week will get us a lot further than the predictable histrionics.
The proposed Environmental Protection Agency regulations aim to cut emissions from coal-fired installations that help fuel climate change. The goal is a 30 percent reduction nationally from 2005 carbon-discharge levels by 2030.
Because Texas is by far the nation's leading bulk producer of carbon pollution, we have more cleaning up to do. Here, the target would be a 39 percent cut by 2030. But the plan leaves plenty of time to accomplish that, and Texas power producers already have been moving to clean up their acts.
The plan also leaves plenty of room to accomplish the goals through free-market approaches. Among the ways states and power generators might comply are improving energy efficiency, increasing use of natural gas, using more renewable energy and plant improvements.
As we look at the costs and benefits of President Obama's plan, several questions come to us as important in determining its viability.
How much is this going to cost us? It's the question everyone will ask first and we understand that. If it requires upgrading plants and building new ones, the costs will be directly passed to power users. Residential users will pay the biggest percentage increase and not just from rates alone. The costs of goods could also go up as companies pass along increased expenses to consumers.
How much is this going to save us? It's a question some may overlook but it certainly is valid. As we reduce pollution, the rates of several medical conditions will also fall, especially COPD, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which is common in East Texas, particularly among older adults. It will be more difficult to accurately compute the savings but they do exist.
What will be the impact on employment? If coal-fired plants have to close, jobs will be lost. But they would probably be offset by the number of construction jobs created by building other plants, most likely fired by natural gas, which is much cleaner. Gas plants do employ somewhat fewer employees than coal plants.
What will be the impact on the oil and gas industry? Coal is important in Texas, but not nearly as important as oil and natural gas. A switch to natural gas would obviously be beneficial not only in jobs created but also on demand for and the price of natural gas, which is low enough now to depress exploration. That extra wealth would certainly be spread throughout the East Texas economy.
We don't have definitive answers for these questions or many others regarding the regulations, but an objective look suggests positive possibilities exist.
It should tell us something that while politicians were screaming bloody murder this past week, officials of state agencies impacted by the rules were saying they'd need time to study them.
That's the right approach.

No deadly secrets: We should know where our state is spending tax dollars used to buy death-row drugs
Attorney General Greg Abbott may be a partisan figure, but he boasts two habits that earn him respect across the board: sticking to his word and supporting transparency in government. So Texans of all stripes should be particularly distressed by his office's recent rejection of an open records request concerning the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.
With an increasing number of pharmacies unwilling to provide the drugs necessary for lethal injections, states have had to look elsewhere for the darkly ironic combination of something that is both deadly and safe. Executions cannot be cruel nor unusual a difficult standard to meet.
Yet recent open records requests for information on the deadly cocktails that Texas plans to use on death row have hit a brick wall at Abbott's office. With this decision to shut the doors to open government, Abbott flip-flops on his proud record of rejecting government secrecy.
Only four years ago, the Attorney General's office held that the TDCJ was not immune from public records requests about the source of lethal injection drugs.
A year later, his office found again that the TDCJ would have a difficult time proving that disclosure of key execution information would result in a substantial threat of physical harm to anyone a potential justification for secrecy. In a decision last October, his office reiterated that point.
This time around, something has changed. Ignoring its own track record, the Attorney General's office held last week that the TDCJ could keep information secret to protect pharmacies from possible threats. This decision was in spite of a report by the Associated Press, which found "scant evidence" of threats to execution drugmakers.
So why did Abbott flip-flop?
Perhaps politics sullied his ideals. The government watchdog group Texans for Public Justice has pointed out that the Abbott campaign recently received more than $350,000 in donations from J. Richard Ray, the owner of a Conroe-area compounding pharmacy. This correlation between campaign donations and changing attitudes should raise some eyebrows. But no matter your position on the death penalty, Texans should know where our government is spending taxpayer dollars especially those used to buy deadly drugs.
Executions in Texas seem to teeter on the edge of constitutionality. Our state has seen innocent men like Anthony Graves sit on death row, coming too close to execution before being exonerated. Likely innocent men like Cameron Todd Willingham have actually been killed in the misapplied name of justice.
Now, Texas' planned execution of Robert Campbell is being brought into question after the Supreme Court recently reaffirmed that the Constitution does not tolerate applying the death penalty to the mentally disabled.
After last month's botched lethal injection in Oklahoma, all Texans should be skeptical of a state government that won't answer questions about the death penalty process. Instead of erecting a wall, Abbott has the opportunity to build a bridge between the bluer shades of Texas and small government advocates by allowing total transparency.
To do this, Abbott wouldn't have to change his mind he would just have to stick to his word.
El Paso Times. June 9, 2014.
More answers needed in Bergdahl case
The release of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl by the Taliban, in exchange for five Taliban leaders held at Guantanamo Bay, raises a number of issues that should be addressed separately.
First, it is a good thing that an American soldier who has been held by enemy forces for nearly five years is free. Regardless of the circumstances of his capture, our nation must always work diligently and faithfully to secure the return of an imprisoned soldier.
But while being happy for his safe return, two other major questions need answering. Did the Obama administration act prudently and wisely in striking the deal for Bergdahl's release? And how should Bergdahl be treated upon his return to the United States?
On the first question, the administration certainly has yet to make the case that the release of five Taliban prisoners among the most hardened of the Guantanamo inmates in exchange for Bergdahl was in the nation's best interests.
News reports indicate that the Taliban provided a video of Bergdahl earlier this year that showed him in poor health. It is understandable that the nation's commander in chief and his national security team would be concerned about a captured American soldier possibly dying in Taliban custody.
But it's difficult to understand how releasing the five Taliban detainees enhances our national security, which is the commander in chief's ultimate responsibility.
Various media have reported that the Obama administration in prior years has discussed such a trade with congressional leaders, and both Democrats and Republicans expressed deep reservations.
Many of those congressional leaders, from both parties, expressed anger that the Obama administration executed the deal without complying with a law that required that Congress be given 30 days' notice of the transfer of any Guantanamo detainees.
Under the Constitution, the president's broad powers as commander-in-chief likely allow him wide latitude to free prisoners of war (even if they lack such official status) and strike deals to free captured American soldiers. Still, the president and his national security team could have laid a better groundwork with congressional leadership.
As for Bergdahl's fate, there has been a rush to condemn him as a deserter. But he deserves the same presumption of innocence due all Americans.
If it is shown that Bergdahl was guilty of being absent without leave or, more seriously, desertion, then he should face appropriate military punishment.
Five years of Taliban captivity has already been harsh punishment. It's hard to imagine any benefit from further imprisonment.
But if he was guilty of being AWOL or deserting, he should at a minimum face discharge under less than honorable circumstances. The American people deserve a full accounting of the circumstances of Bergdahl's capture. And the Obama administration owes us a complete explanation of the deal for his release.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram. June 2, 2014.
Open-carry backers must follow the law
The Texas state Republican convention could generate conflict between property rights and gun rights if those seeking more expansive open-carry legislation cross the threshold of the downtown Fort Worth Convention Center with their long guns.
City and state officials are reminding open-carry proponents that the public display of such guns is allowed by law, but not at businesses licensed to serve alcohol.
And because a local catering company is permitted to serve alcohol at the city-owned facility, the convention center qualifies as one of those businesses. Anyone caught possessing an unlicensed weapon on the premises could be cited for trespassing.
But the business could also face sanctions, like loss of its Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission permit.
The dueling priorities set up an interesting tension between two values equally dear to many Republicans: individual property rights and Second Amendment rights.
Fortunately, Chairman of the Texas GOP Steve Munisteri told Star-Telegram reporter Anna Tinsley that the party will abide by the state law on open-carry in the convention center. According to Facebook posts, he urged those in attendance not to take long guns into the convention hall.
Given the escalating debate over Open Carry's tactics, we can't be sure his words will resonate.
But even Kori Watkins of Open Carry Texas' local chapter said he and other open-carry supporters will respect private-property rights and abide by the law.
They should.

Glendale police made two recent arrests for prostitution at hotels on Port Washington Road after going online to set up the meetings.
According to the police report:
A 43-year-old woman, possibly from Texas, was arrested for prostitution, possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia after police investigated a website and set up "a date" at the Baymont Inn, 5485 N. Port Washington Road, at 10:40 p.m. June 10.
The woman had 4 grams of marijuana, pipes with residue and $695 cash. The woman said she was in the area working for a traveling sales group and her co-workers left but she stayed and has done "exceptionally well as a prostitute in Glendale with about 15 customers a day."
In the second incident, a 20-year-old Milwaukee woman was arrested for prostitution after police investigated a website and set up "a date" with her at the Radisson Hotel, 7065 N. Port Washington Road, at 9:30 p.m. June 6.
The woman arrived in a red Jaguar and later told police she wasn't going "to do anything for money" and was "confused why she was arrested."
The woman, who had condoms issued from a Florida women's shelter, had other prostitution arrests, some in Florida.

The Wolf Girls is the exciting and moving story about a group of unforgettably unique sisters. Born human but raised deep in the woods by feral wolves, a pack of wild girls are thrust into a strict Catholic boarding school in order to be assimilated into "human society." During their time at school they must learn to walk and talk like "proper ladies," avoid eating school pets and (perhaps most difficult) learn to deal with each other. As the day of graduation draws near, the girls must ask themselves: Who will be permitted to join society and who will be cast back into the woods? And which one is really the better choice?

Spiral Cellars is the established expert in wine storage for the home, specialising in unique premium wine cellars and bespoke wine rooms. With a range of outstanding options for its discerning clients across the UK, Ireland and further afield Spiral Cellars has, for more than 30 years, been leading the way in offering luxurious large-scale wine storage that fulfils not only a highly functional need, but also looks stunning.
The increased interest in creating homes of distinction has resulted in wine storage receiving a face lift, no longer sitting hidden behind cabinets, in the basement or under the stairs. Whether an extension of the kitchen,
a statement piece of the entrance hallway or the focal point of the entertaining space, when designed and finished to the highest standards wine storage can become a spectacular feature that sits at the centre of the interior design scheme.
Aside from offering the ideal conditions, wine cellars and wine rooms in the home also enable the owner to grow their collection over many years. With more capacity it allows freedom to explore new grape varieties, regions and winemakers, and easy access to monitor the ageing process.
We always think it's a good idea to think ahead with building projects - afterall, they don't happen over night. So here's our advice for those planning for 2015: get in early and book a meeting for this year with us at your home so that you can secure one of our spring installation slots. It's the busiest time of year for us!

Thank you for the opportunity to further clarify the intent of the County Council for regulating commercial truck parking in unincorporated Pierce County as expressed in Ordinance 2014-49s.
Several constituents, aggravated by insensitive truck drivers, had contacted my office over the past year citing concerns about traffic safety, noise and declining property values due to semi trucks parking in the right-of-way and in front of their homes day after day. (It is always a good time to remind ourselves that there are no laws against peace, patience or goodness.)
In an effort to be sensitive to the needs of businesses and fair to the residents and neighborhoods affected by truck parking, Councilman Rick Talbert and I worked to formulate a plan that would be a win/win solution. Not wanting to implement an all-out 24-hour ban, as has been done in other cities and counties, the solution we developed restricts the parking of large commercial trucks and trailers along the side of public roads in the public right-of-way, between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., in certain areas of the county. The restriction does not apply to private property and does not change any rules related to the parking of commercial trucks on a person's own land.
The portion of the county that is subject to the restriction is primarily the urban growth area located north of 208th Street East, and is about 9 percent of the total unincorporated area, excluding federal lands. The restriction does not apply in cities or towns, as these jurisdictions establish their own rules, nor does it apply to the majority of the rural area.
In closing, I want to reiterate that the restriction is an effort to balance the needs of residents and neighborhoods with the needs of truck drivers. I believe that the restriction adopted by the council struck the right balance. Councilman Talbert and I do, however, intend to monitor the effects of the restriction over the next 24 months and are willing to look at additional options in the future that may aid the trucking industry in addressing their parking needs.
Jim McCune is a Pierce County Council member. The district he represents includes Graham, Eatonville, Frederickson, Ashford, Spanaway and Elbe.

Sep 12, 2012From major bullet points like the story to smaller details like the UI and inventory system, Borderlands 2 surpassed my expectations and stands as a prime example of how to knock a sequel out of the park. [Oct 2012, p.90]
Sep 20, 2012Borderlands 2 hits the market like a bullet in the brain, a syringe of adrenaline, a punch in the wall. You'll get caught and won't stop playing for a long time.
Sep 17, 2012The only trouble with Borderlands 2, on a critical level, is that it feels less like a true sequel than a Borderlands 1.5, a redux of the original title that lacks in completely new ideas but still clearly has all-around improvements.
Oct 10, 2012Borderlands 2 is smarter, sharper, bigger and funnier than the game it supersedes. Everything that made the 2009 title so memorable has been improved upon, designed for you to sink your life into. These coming months are going to be packed with excellent titles, but Borderlands 2 has enough potential and sheer stuff to keep you going well into 2013. You need this. [November 2012, p62]
Sep 17, 2012Where Borderlands was 'sent out to die', Borderlands 2 has been sent out to kill. And it does just that. It will easily be one of the best games released all year and the more we dream of that delicious four-player co-op, the more we think it's one of the top games this generation.
Sep 17, 2012As someone who went into Borderlands 2 with a sickness that I thought only more Borderlands could cure, I'm left feeling like I didn't receive a full dose this time around.

Sep 18, 2012borderlands 2 is published by 2k games and developed by gearbox. one thing im specially told about this game borderlands 2 is awesome.
borderlands 2 start with a great hand down cinematic story.Characters from the previous game initiate events that cause the planet to spit out precious minerals. Like any good story.The most significant change Borderlands 2 can boast over its predecessor is a cohesive plot that actually hangs together reasonably well and drives the story missions forward at a decent pace.The other big change in Borderlands 2 comes in the game's playable class structure. The melee-enhanced Berserker has been replaced this time around by a "Gunzerker" class that can briefly dual wield any two weapons, making for some enjoyably over the top combinations (I particularly enjoyed simultaneously using a shotgun in one hand and a rocket launcher in the other, which I can't recall ever doing in a first-person shooter). I also enjoyed the new Assassin class, which comes with the extremely useful ability to escape with the aid of a temporary decoy, and can use skill tree upgrades that make him a quality melee attacker.
noow the time to tell something about graphics last borderlands using cell shaded engine which mean everything like cartoonist now the game using unreal engine 3.every thing in the game is design very well and work on more then 60 frame per second on xbox 360,ps3 and normal pc.if u like the review plz comment about this review thanks.… Expand
Jan 17, 2013Borderlands 2 is a very interesting RPG. The guns had a major step up improvement, which pushed me to farm the same boss for hours, just to get the coolest guns imaginable. Borderlands 2 lived up to my expectations. If you are looking for a good RPG, and you love Call of Duty, then Borderlands 2 is the game for you.… Expand

May 19, 2013Positives: SOOOOO much variation in weapons, loot, mission quests, excellent dialogue with a good number of one-liners (or several..), simple jump-in/jump-out online play, with friends or worldwide connection, making it even more entertaining to play. A number of different classes also, with so much replayability, and the fact that you can create more than one character at a time is a big bonus for a game of this stature. Huge, open, semi-free roam world, some awesome rather tidy graphics, and very amusing in-game NPCs for more of the fun-factor.
Negatives: When playing with friends, loot drops aren't shared and only one player can pick up the loot-drops from enemies. Also, some people like him, some people don't, but ClapTrap (the robot) constantly talks rubbish and he does my nut in! Very annoying to listen to and unfortunately he can't be killed.
9/10 for a brilliant game with lots of different things to do, lots of equipment to use, and a joyful playing experience with the dialogue and the characters on show.… Expand
Oct 19, 2014Once again Bethesda strikes gold. I loved the first one. By loved I mean I played the campaign and DLC end to end with each player class, and was left wanting more. It took a while but they delivered and with a few improvements. While not perfect, it was definitely an improvement in game control, player optimization, and story. One of my favorite elements was the addition of better NPC's you get to love/hate in Jack(azz), Sir Hammerlock, a slightly more humorous Claptrap, and the unforgettable Tiny Tina. Who can't love a game that has you on a mission renaming enemies bonerballs. Main critique is that some missions require an annoying amount of foot travel and killing repawned(and boringly lower class)enemies, and that towards the end it starts to get kind of repetitive. If you like the RPG/FPS hybrid genre, or even just a dynamic open world FPS, then it is definitely for you.… Expand
May 31, 2013I really like RPG games like this, the game is awesome fun! That's until after you finish the game's campaign of course. After I finished the game (without co-op) I tried to find other games, unfortunately I found no one available, so I basically had nothing to do. Plus, I'm not looking forward to Borderlands 3, mainly 'cause I hate GB now, and the fact the game gets boring for a while, even with friends. But I (might) consider buying/renting the sequel to this game. Not like I'm going to keep it.… Expand
Dec 1, 2012Great game when it works, but what's the point when the game is so riddled with glitches, the game is unplayable? Unless you like to waste your time building characters only to have your hard work deleted, avoid this game. Gearbox Software is a joke. They have no idea how to fix the glitch and when you visit their forums, they greet you with a particularly offensive brand of Programmer's Superiority Complex. What do they care? They have our money. They shouldn't get yours. They won't get mine again.… Expand

Barry Kusel
ILF farmer partner Barry Kusel farms in southwestern Carroll County and started using no-till in the early 1980s. He used fall strip-tillage in the early 1990s on corn acres. Kusel began no-tilling to reduce the erosion of their highly erodible loess soils as well as a reduction in their costs. The Kusels now use no-till on all of their acres and are experimenting with cover crops for further reduction of erosion.
Building a Culture of Conservation:
"We hope that our land will continue to be sustainable with the possibility of improvements to soil and water quality," says Barry. "Our no-till system use is not about us but rather we emphasize the systems that protect some of the most productive and valuable soils in the world for now and the future."
"If we continue to erode soil faster than nature can produce it, our legacy will be a sad one!"

The Indecision 11: Myq Kaplan
Welcome to The Indecision 11, our soft-hitting — caressing, really — politics questionnaire for smart, funny people. This week: comedian Myq Kaplan, whom you know from his stint on Last Comic Standing, his appearances on Conan and The Late Show with David Letterman, his Comedy Central Presents special and his regular guest spots on the Keith and the Girl comedy podcast. Would you like to buy his best-selling comedy album Vegan Mind Meld? (Hint: you do.) You also want to follow @myqkaplan.
What's your earliest political memory?
I didn't follow politics as a child much at all, other than class elections where I would write in votes for communism. When I got to college I got more engaged. I remember taking an ethics course where I read something that Reagan (or one of his speechwriters) had said about abortion, something to the effect of "If you don't know whether a body is alive or dead, you don't bury it." And it really made me think. I remember thinking that I agreed with the words, but there was more to the issue. Like, what if the body in question is a vampire? Is it alive or dead? Is it alive AND dead (Schrodinger's vampire)? Either way, the point is that you defend yourself against that vampire! (The other point is, I learned that I can make compelling yet distracting arguments about important issues as well. So elect me president against the vampires! As I understand it, presidents need to be vampire hunters these days anyhow.)

No Florence, Italy, trip for man who stole from Ralph Lauren PoloSeptember 14,2013Theft means no
Italy trip for man
BENNINGTON A man from Albany, N.Y., said he had lost a trip to Florence, Italy, as punishment for the activity leading to his charges of embezzlement and retail theft to which he pleaded guilty this week.
Neil Rosen, 20, pleaded guilty in Bennington criminal court to three misdemeanor charges, one count of embezzlement and two counts of retail theft.
The sentence for the charges was deferred for three years. If he avoids further legal troubles and follows the terms of his probation, Rosens criminal record will be expunged.
In an affidavit, Officer Christopher Mason of the Manchester Police Department said Rosen had been an employee at Ralph Lauren Polo over the summer. On July 12, Rosen admitted in a statement that he had stolen from the store on five occasions, taking $40 in cash and about $600 in merchandise.
The $40 was returned in July and restitution has been made to the store.
During Rosens court hearing Monday, Bennington County States Attorney Erica Marthage said one reason the state had reached a plea arrangement with Rosen was that his parents had taken the matter pretty seriously and imposed other consequences on their son, including canceling his planned trip to Florence.
David Silver, the attorney who represented Rosen, said Rosens parents were very distraught and disappointed in him and ashamed of his conduct and said Rosen felt the same way. Rosen added he was very ashamed.
Judge Nancy Corsones told Rosen he had lost something valuable when he lost the chance to travel abroad at a young age.
