Maryland Health Benefit Exchange Fires IT Contractor
Updated: Tuesday, February 25 2014, 03:58 PM EST
The Board of the Maryland Health Benefit Exchange voted to end the role of Noridian Healthcare Solutions as the prime IT contractor for the Exchange. Optum/QSSI has been named as the prime IT contractor on an interim basis.
"This transition will support the Exchange's goal of enrolling as many Marylanders as possible in quality, affordable health coverage by the close of open enrollment on March 31," chair of the Board Dr. Joshua M. Sharfstein said. "The company will bring additional IT expertise to the project, and will contract with key existing subcontractors to improve and maintain the current technology underlying Maryland Health Connection in the short term. These steps will support a smooth transition."
Optum/QSSI is based in Columbia, MD and was hired by the government in October to fix the federal health insurance marketplace.
"Secretary FitzGerald is leading a review of options for the Maryland Health Benefit Exchange's IT system after open enrollment ends, and today's announcement does not affect that review," Sharfstein said. "The Exchange is preserving all rights to seek damages against Noridian and its subcontractors for problems with the IT system. "

Ugol by Yaroslav Misonzhnikov
Saint Petersburg designer Yaroslav Misonzhnikov has designed a table lamp named Ugol.
From the designer
Plain form and performance is combined with unique mode of setting it up on a table, by the way already received a patent. All you need is a table angle and board of a standard thickness. A normal working table is usually from 1 to 2,5 cm thick. The lamp is putting on the angle and rests inclined by it's weight, then the angle between lamp and the table depends on the thickness of the table itself. Ugol means "corner" In Russian language. The object is projected for recently founded by the designer himself Saint-Petersburg producer Imenno-design. The lamp will be realized in a limited edition and released in Saint-Petersburg and Moscow boutiques and also on-line in Imenno-design brand shop in the web.

Beautiful piece, simple and elegant and a good deterrent for unwanted disturbances or presence. How can I purchase a piece of this art work
Justin P on 01 May 2013 at 7:59 pm #
Really nice design, though it might be nice to have an option for adjustment on both the hanger and the light shaft, rotation or otherwise. I seems like it could be implemented while still retaining the purity of the piece.
Either way, excellent work.
Ralph Zoontjens on 05 May 2013 at 2:45 am #
It's lovely, the plain, honest workerman's stick with the sophistication of LED's. Most tables I know have the legs all the way on the outside of the corner though, so it wouldn't work. And too bad for the powercord and cheap switch, it takes away a lot of the clean and simple aesthetics. Maybe a better choice to put some batteries in the stick? Will also add to the weight, making it feel like an old shovel.
David Allen on 08 May 2013 at 5:27 am #
Overall, a nice simple idea. Honestly, I really like the power cord and I think the switch is quite appropriate for the design of the lamp. A cordless unit would be preferable from a practical standpoint. I understand the aesthetic of simplicity, but I wish the intersections would have had a little more care and detail. The mitered joints seem a little "hobby craftsman" to me, compared to a rounded off finger joint or tenon.

How has this all gone wrong? We've got a third-generation performer – Joe Hennig, son of Curt Hennig and grandson of Larry Hennig. Surely, his forefather's charisma and ring work would find their way to young Joe, right? Oh, if only…
Joe Hennig came to the WWE in late 2007 under his own name and things seemed to be going par for the course – winning titles both tag team and eventually the FCW Heavyweight title while there. Then, the roof fell in.
He surfaced on the newly-christened "NXT" on Sci-Fi as…wait for it…Michael McGillicutty (!?!?!?!) Really? REALLY? Whoever came up with the name should be forced to legally change their own name to it and keep it for life. Both Husky Harris (?!?! again) and Hennig ended up in "The Nexus". He couldn't get over and, after some time, he was ultimately sent back to developmental to be repackaged.
Earlier this year, Paul Heyman told us on "Raw" that he had a brand new "Paul Heyman Guy" and it turned out to be Mr. Hennig – this time renamed Curtis Axel. This is far less awful of a name so we could be thankful for that. I saw him and thought, "Michael McGillicutty…great" but I was willing to give it a chance to work. Clearly, Vince and Triple H felt similarly as Triple H himself even showed up to get him over. After this, he started winning matches. Sin Cara and even John Cena were fed to him in an effort to get him over. Did it work? No, not even a little.
So what's the deal? Why is Axel not over despite everything? For one thing, any time he is asked to talk, he's a total bore – unable to put across the simplest talking point with any organic conviction. Of course, the "talking" thing isn't a big deal. He has Paul Heyman and he can do all the talking. Sadly, that's not all that's wrong. On top of his talking issues, he also completely lacks charisma. Put simply, no one cares about him. He gets almost no reaction coming to the ring and his ring work doesn't get much reaction either. During his feud with CM Punk, only Punk & Heyman mattered. Of course, this is mostly by design but one would imagine Axel would get some kind of rub from this…and he did; he just had no clue what to do with it. Noticing the issue, they get the equally-uninteresting Ryback involved and the result is the same. The audience only cares about Punk & Heyman. Heyman's feud with Punk was blown off at the "Hell In A Cell" pay-per-view and Ryback is reduced to ashes on the following "Raw". As for Axel? A hip injury on the previous "Raw" takes him out of the aforementioned pay-per-view and no one yet knows how all of this will play out.
So where to now? Well, Axel has been an absolute and complete failure; there can be no question of this. I am not as high up on his ring work as many are. WWE has far better workers (Bryan, Orton, Ziggler, Ambrose, Reigns, Rollins, Goldust, Cody Rhodes and others) an all of the workers I've mentioned have more charisma in their eyelashes than Axel has in his entire body. Only time will tell if Mr. Hennig will be able to get it together. I do not wish failure upon him but, at this point, it just isn't looking good. If Triple H, Paul Heyman and CM Punk can't get you over, something is seriously wrong. Even strapped as the WWE Intercontinental Champion, he simply doesn't matter.

Are any of you actually saving $$ with CD's? I thought I was all set with my pockets until DS became a tummy sleeper, then I needed to get some fitteds and covers, then some wool, then some more aplix for daycare and another wet bag, then a really cute new print came out, then I needed to try one of the new Fuzzibunz, and on and on.
DH is very supportive, especially for the environmental reasons, but he really questions if we are saving any money. DS is only 8 months old, so we are maybe breaking even about now and will start saving until he's potty trained...except I can't stop buying!!
It's possible to go either way. I've spent MAYBE $500 on my stash (I'm definitely rounding up); that's all accessories, selling and rebuying what I actually ended up liking, a splurge here and there. DD is already showing interest in the potty and all of her dipes are in awesome shape. I aimed to buy gender neutral dipes but of course got some girlier ones that I can sell to buy some more boyish prints if we have a boy next time. So I'll diaper at least 2 children for that cost and in the end be able to sell my stash and recoup some cost back from that.
Basically if cost savings was a huge aspect for somebody they could most definitely achieve it. I agree though, it's hard not to go crazy and buy up all the cute fluff you see.
Gismo123:Yup! I have so many diapers, 160 lol, they will have awesome re sell value since it's a big rotation. I have also aquired a lot of collectable prints and discontinued diapers that will go for good money.
holy moly. Post on here when you're ready to sell!
yes, we used prefolds exclusively from birth to 6 months, and then moved to some prefolds, GMD workhorse and SBish at night. I always look at new diapers, but honestly haven't bought any for 6 months. I love our stash as is and it is GN...so $600 on diapering DS has been cheap.
i may buy some more night time diapers soon, as they seem to take a while to line dry...but it's not really a need, we're doing fine with what we've got.
We have definitely saved a huge amount! I have crazy-nice in-laws who bought a big amount of our stash and my own parents bought us a bunch as well (M was a very anticipated new addition!) I have definitely spent a few hundred myself, but WAY LESS than if we were buying sposies. We used up gifted wipes and went right to cloth wipes. I have an 8 week old and have never purchased a sposie in my life! That in itself feels good.
We've saved money and our minds by not being desperate for a sposie at 3am and needing to drive frantically to the store
I haven't bought any diapers in many, many months and have saved hundreds if not thousands of dollars. Plus it's time to break out the newborn diapers for the next baby!
I don't really care about diapers as collectables and have no interest in the expense and hassle of fitteds and wool.
For my family, we are saving a bundle!
I purchased 25 Kawaii P&N's, 8 ONHW's, and a pack of additional inserts during the valued customer sale on the theluvyourbaby.com a few months back for $160. When Cotton Babies was selling the Flip covers for 2 for $20, we stocked up on those, plus I purchased 2 packages of prefolds (not on sale, but I purchase them a little at a time, so they are on hand when we're ready to use them). I waited for Earth Day to purchase wet bags & got 3 for $50.
I think if you look for sales & buy when they are at a good price, you can really save.
Another plus for my family is we live in an apartment that pays for gas, which includes hot water & running our washer. That is just a plus, but I know those extra couple of loads of laundry wouldn't make that big of a difference!
I did the math. On average, including washing/drying/accessories, etc. we spent about 230 on our stash to last through the newborn stage into the smallest stage - some of the items included in this will last the entire time like snappis, diaper pail liners, wet bags, etc. For the first three months I have estimated that we would probably spend about $240 on sposies (not using 7th gen, just normal ones) assuming that our son is a "normal" pooper and not a super pooper. We haven't started yet, but by my hopeful estimations we'll save at least 25% on diapers barring any need for more supplies in the first 4-6 months compared to disposables.
Just a general rule of thumb I've found in research, the cheapest sposies cost about 24-25 cents per diapers while your average cloth is about 17 cents per diaper. Over the course of 30 months (roughly the time a kid needs diapers) that adds up a lot.
I suspect it depends on type of cloth you use and how much you control how many you get. We use prefolds and covers, and we definitely saved money. We also don't pay utilities (live in a house provided by my husband's job and they pay utilities) so that makes it even more savings for us.
Now that we're expecting LO #2 and will be using the same diapers (buying just a few more covers) the savings is going to be even WAY more.
I just ran some numbers and at 17 weeks, I've already saved about $90. These numbers are all ran off of what I assume we would have chosen for diapers and wipes, which was Costco and at the cheaper end of the sposie spectrum.
My stash is 36 OS prefolds, 13 covers (9 OS and 4 size 1), 4 hemp inserts, 3 snappis, 3 small wet bags, and 2 xl wet bags and it all cost $210.20 (including shipping). DD wets a lot and I calculated how much we would have spent on disposable diapers and wipes. I didn't figure for wipes in my stash cost since it was all leftover flannel fabric from the crib sheets I made.
Maybe as DD gets bigger, we might expand the stash a little bit (after she starts daycare possibly). The prefolds work great for us so far and I have no complaints.
Yes, we're saving money. I've been very, very disciplined about adding to our stash, buying gender neutral colors, buying new covers only as DS has outgrown the smaller sizes, and then buying a couple of pocket diapers for nighttime. I'm sure if we have a girl next time I'll buy a couple of feminine covers/diapers for her, but I am really serious about wanting to save money by cloth diapering. My estimate is that the value of our stash plus accessories is around $500 or so, maybe $600 (and quite a bit of that were gifts, so not out of our pocket).
I do think that the cost estimates of disposables are inflated on some comparison sites. I found that Pampers were $0.25/each - but store brands are cheaper, and of course baby starts going through fewer per day after a few months. If you're spending $20-25+/cloth diaper and have 50+ in your stash, I question how much you'll actually end up saving over store brand disposables, especially when you factor in the other costs associated with cloth, including water, electricity, and gas. If saving money isn't a priority in cloth diapering, then have at it - but for us it was, and I think we've done reasonably well at it.
Angela814:I think we'll end up breaking even and only make back when I start to sell. I also think the annual cost of disposables is completely over inflated on most comparison sites. I started doing the math on what we would spend using Pampers/Luvs purchased at Sam's Club. It's around 500/year. I've spent about 900 so far.

I agree with this. Unless you do only prefolds.
JmeJme:Even using target brand, I figured it out to about 1000 dollars a year. I spent about 600 on my NB and OS stash..
Same here.
Plus I live in a very HCOL area. Even on sale Pampers/Huggies/Luvs are around 35 cents apiece. We do not have Sam's Club and our Costco is such a zoo that I refuse to even have a membership since I can't stand shopping there.
So yeah, given the realities of buying sposies where I live, I'm saving a ton of money.
Okay so for giggles, I just went to cotton babies and "built" in my checkout box what I would consider to be an awesome stash. It included 14 BG 4.0s, 8 BG Freetimes, 6 thirsties covers, 2 FLIP Hybrids, 6 Inserts and 2 Boxes of disposible inserts. A sprayer, 2 wetbags, and 7 BG NB diapers. Add the cost of that cart to the cost of purchased 20 GMD workhorse fitteds, you're at about $700. Between the fitteds, covers and NB AIOs that is an entire NB Stash. The rest speaks for itself, only I would add fitteds in larger sizes, but not add to the cost because I would sell my NB fitteds to do it and I would add less of them.
So lets just say that $700-800 could get me all the cloth diapers I WANT and need, because these are the diapers I'd want, I really would be saving money over the course of three years. A lot of money.
It is silly to lowball the annual cost of sposies. You may end up with a kid who can't wear target brand, costco, LUVS. My kid cost a bundle because we had to wear Pampers sensitive and when he outgrew those, 7th generation...otherwise diaper rashes that would bleed. We also had to change him more often. I had intended on using less expensive diapers. And look what happened anyway, we still had to switch him over to cloth around two, so then there was that investment.
If I go based on my own history, there is no way I won't save CDing over sposie. No way.

Man to test 'bionic' leg by climbing one of world's tallest buildings
31-year-old Zac Vawter lost his leg in a motorcycle accident back in 2009 and wasn't quite satisfied with the responsiveness of his prosthetic (he refers to it as his "dumb" leg). So Vawter, a software engineer from Washington state, signed up to be a research subject for a promising new leg that is controlled by thought.
The Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago's Center for Bionic Medicine is behind this exciting concept (and the team has helped develop thought-controlled prosthetic arms, too). And Vawter has agreed to debut it in a very unique way — by climbing 103 flights of stairs to the top of Chicago's Willis Tower.
2,700 people are expected to participate alongside Vawter this Sunday as part of the event, dubbed "SkyRise Chicago". It will help raise money for the rehabilitation institute and Vawter has spent hours in training. The research team recently placed 11 electrodes on his thigh so that information could be sent to the microcomputer on the prosthetic leg. Now Vawter can think, "Climb stairs," and, incredibly, his body and the leg work fluidly together to do what is needed.
Hopefully, the $8 million project, funded by the U.S. Department of Defense along with Vanderbilt University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Rhode Island and the University of New Brunswick will help make thought-controlled prosthetic legs widely available in the future.
Don't miss the gallery below of Vawter in Chicago getting fitted with the prosthetic and walking around the Willis Tower getting ready for the November 4th event.

Cyber Privateers
John Arquilla, a professor at the Naval Postgraduate School, has been thinking about the implications of the Internet on national security for some time. He is perhaps best known for advocating the military strategy of "Netwar" against terrorist groups, which he says can be waged in cyberspace and on real-world battlefields.
At the core of the "Netwar" concept lies the oft-cited idea that "it takes a network to fight a network." In other words: The U.S. military should adopt some of the characteristics of what Arquilla calls "dark networks," particularly with respect to organization, and beat al Qaeda et al on their own turf.
In a new report sponsored by the Pentagon, Arquilla lays out a few recommendations for how defense officials should wage "Netwar" in the virtual domain.
One idea is for the government to mobilize "cyber militias," he writes.
This action would consist perhaps of setting up Web sites from which interested "netizens" could download search and other sorts of tools that they could then employ against targets that had been illuminated by the cyber command. This could be done by either overt or covert means and, given the usual sensitivities of senior American political leaders, would take a very steely resolve to pursue as a viable option.
A variant of this approach could be to recruit a smaller number of "master hackers" who would use their skills to track the activities of terrorists in cyberspace, Arquilla writes.
The basic design of this strategy would be very much like earlier efforts in history to use privateers to strike enemies at sea, sometimes even to hit them from the sea, as Queen Elizabeth I had Sir Francis Drake and other "sea dogs" do in the 16th century. The institutional basis of this approach is the "letter of marque" providing authorization for such action and distinguishing it from common piracy.
Arquilla also would like to see an intelligence and technology hub emerge akin to the World War II "Bletchley Park" in England. Analysts at ueber-secret facility developed code-breaking capabilities for the Allies that led to a series of decisive wins over Nazi Germany.
Meanwhile, defense officials continue to wrestle with some fundamental questions relating to war in cyberspace. For example, the question of how to practice deterrence in the virtual domain has been simmering in defense circles for some time. We had the chance to ask Rear Adm. Dan Davenport of U.S. Joint Forces Command recently whether a key command-sponsored war game staged in early summer brought participants any closer to an answer.
"Not really," he replied.

((hugs)) Maureen! Heartache is a tough road to navigate. I've definitely been in your shoes (being in a blended family now, myself). I wish you much peace, joy, and love along your journey.ReplyDelete
Love is the most complicated and most simple thing ever, I swear. (((Hugs))) to you. Thank you for sharing your vulnerability; there is strength in your words even if it doesn't feel like that to you right now.ReplyDelete
Hang in there...this too shall pass. Is it possible a friendship has developed in this man. One that will transend time and distance? Or is this a all or nothing ending? Yes, very sad and I think we all need time to "mourn" lost loves but please remember the longer you wallow in self pity the harder it will be to return. I think now would be a good time to go and buy brand new matching undies. Matching undiues always make me feel lovely even if noone sees them but me.

This post really really hit me square in the face because my marriage ended and I have yet to date since we separated and divorced and so much of what you said rang true for me. I am a 31 year old single mother of 3 and you DO feel unloveable and a failure at love and like this is it for you. You feel that there's no one who can heft that baggage of a broken heart, someone else's 3 kids, and a failed marriage and help you carry all that down the road. And for lack of a better term.....it SUCKS. It does help me to hear you share that in this space so I don't feel like the only 30-something with children and a broken heart/marriage trying to figure out where I went wrong.ReplyDelete
Wow! What timing! I just posted on my blog about loss and roller coaster emotional rides as well. In my family we have a silly saying that sometimes rings true: "Ain't mama happy, ain't nobody happy!" - Wishing you healing, hope, and joy.ReplyDelete
I lost my mama to suicide last July. That was an enormous blow to my self esteem. I'm still healing of course but I felt almost the same way. It's a different kind of heartache but still hurts like crazy.ReplyDeleteReplies
it's NOT you. It's NEVER you. It's despite you, if anything. Other than knowing this, I won't even pretend I could ever comprehend how you feel or what you are going through, Rachel.Delete
Oh lovely ladies...thank you for sharing your own stories of loss and heartache. Yes, sometimes it doesn't matter what we've lost...the pain truly is all the same in the end, (and it is just that...PAIN!!) And thank you for the love...I know my heartache will ease...every day that passes it feels a bit better...but, then again, these things tend to come in waves and wash over us when we least expect it. I'm willing to give myself time to let this wound heal, and to grow strong so I can love again with all my heart!ReplyDelete
Rachel...I am so so sorry to hear about your mother...I just can't imagine the emotions a suicide would bring up...I send you my LOVE.
xo and LOVE to you all! maureenReplies
I've come to think that it doesn't really matter who receives your love as long as it is received with heartfelt gratefulness.Delete
The love I feel for various people and animals isn't asking for much (not even trying to say it's asking for nothing as love that is not acknowledged will wither) and just knowing that being loved makes a difference to somebody (human or otherwise) is immensely gratifying.
To honour your honesty, I will be really honest myself- I have difficulties showing my love. I am not warm, lovy, cuddly, approachable and embracing. I appear to be businesslike, efficient, smooth (in a way that you just can't get a grip emotionally) and often superficial. But I love fiercely, with no restraints, and quite possibly forever, just as much as I hate in the same way.
What you went through will shape you in some way or another. But even in your darkest moments do not EVER think that you are not loved, or deserve love, or are loved. Sometimes we get hurt by people who love us the most, and it looks like you were woman enough NOT to build thick brick walls around you.
Keep it that way.
If an arrow can't puncture your armour, how is a feather supposed to tickle you?
Suffer through it, and remember why you do. Because you are strong enough NOT to call in the cavalry, you can do this all by yourself. Sure hurts like heck, but if it didn't, you might as well call it a day.
We ((LOVE)) your comments!!! Thank you with all our hearts for visiting us here at Twig and Toadstool. xo

Find a Honda specialist and get the fuel pressure checked.
Also, FYI, if you put the gas pedal down to the floor when starting, it cuts off the fuel as a 'flooding' clearing feature, so don't use much pedal (if any - shouldn't need to, it's automatically controlled) when starting.
Here's a directory link for you:

Thank you, I will have them checked the fuel pressure as adviced.

John Curley supports idea to fund education of illegal immigrantson August 24, 2012 @ 8:06 am (Updated: 11:17 am - 10/3/12 )
"Would you rather have an illegal immigrant come to this country, have a kid in this country and then not have the kid get educated? I mean, how does that help anybody, that's just silly."
The poll by the public education advocacy group Phi Delta Kappa International (PDK) shows that four in 10 Americans now favor "providing free public education, school lunches and other benefits" to children whose parents are in the USA illegally.
But Curley points out a vast majority still oppose the benefits and he calls that misguided. The number of illegal immigrants coming into our country continues to decline, in large part because of a lack of jobs and other economic opportunities.
"Most of what I see, anybody that's coming to this country is not coming for the free stuff but to work," Curley says.
He points to the regular gathering of day laborers outside his neighborhood Home Depot.
"I'm going to guess a lot of them are illegal because if they weren't illegal, they'd have a social security number and be able to pick up work somewhere else."
Curley, a Republican Sammamish City Councilmember, is in the minority within his own party. The survey finds just 21% of Republicans favored funding for illegal students. In contrast, 65% of Democrats favor such funding.
Meantime, a small private liberal arts college in western Massachusetts has announced the establishment of a scholarship fund dedicated to helping illegal immigrants get degrees.
The scholarship will provide more than $25,000 each year to help an illegal immigrant pay for the $43,000-plus tuition at Hampshire College in Amherst. At current funding levels, the endowment will help support one student's studies at the college every four years, said college spokeswoman Elaine Thomas.
Curley supports the move, especially since it doesn't involve public funding.
Hampshire alumni, graduating students, parents and other donors have given more than $300,000 since the spring to fund the scholarship and an endowment to sustain it.

FORT WORTH – Jason Verrett and Blaire Pickens have been named TCU's Athletes of the Week for helping their teams earn victories over the past week.Verrett, a cornerback on the Horned Frogs football team, was a key component of the TCU defense that shut down No. 18 Texas on Thanksgiving night in Austin. Verrett was second on the Frogs with seven tackles, posted an interception to end Texas' opening drive of the game and recorded a pass breakup in TCU's 20-13 victory. The junior has been one of the nation's top cover corners, ranking in the top five nationally in interceptions (six) and passes defended (19).Pickens, a freshman right side from Anaheim Hills, Calif., finished the season with a couple of the best performances of her young career. In TCU's midweek match at Oklahoma, Pickens posted a career-high 10 kills and led the team with a .409 hitting percentage on the evening. She was one of the stars of the Frogs' season-finale victory over West Virginia Saturday, recording seven kills on only 11 attempts with a hitting percentage of .636. Pickens averaged 2.57 points per set on the week.Verrett and the Horned Frogs football squad wrap up the regular season at home Saturday against No. 11 Oklahoma. Kickoff is slated for 11 a.m.

A woman woke up one morning, turned to her husband and said, "Honey, I just had a dream that you bought me a new gold necklace. What do you think it means?"
"You'll know on Valentines' Day," he replied.
The morning of Valentine's Day, she again woke up telling him about her dream: "This time I dreamed that you brought me a diamond necklace. What do you think it means?"
"Honey, be patient," he said. "You'll know tonight."
That evening, the husband came home with a package and gave it to his wife. Delighted, she opened it--and found a book titled The Meaning of Dreams.

Google remembers pretty much everything we do online and we are all more or less freaked out about it. But if Google remembers, if Google has a memory, why aren't we benefitting more from it? Re-finding is defined as the activity to find previously viewed search results and has been estimated to constitute as much as 40% of all online searches.
Search engines are designed first and for-most to help us find new information but they offer a couple features that aid re-finding. Perhaps the most helpful is the color change of previously clicked hyperlinks. The history function is arguably the most useless. Even though many people are aware of it, most people will rather use the normal search function instead of pouring over a chronological list of links. "I remember a rather nice article I happened upon a couple of weeks ago. Now, lets see. It must have been on Tuesday the 14th at 3.28PM." Not many people's minds operate in this way, mine certainly doesn't.
We are already starting to treat the web as an extension of our memory and this tendency is likely to increase as we develop and define cloud computing. Our demands and expectations on search engine capabilities are going to grow. Can we look to our own memory structures for inspiration to improve re-finding (i.e our online memory)? What can we learn from our Long-Term-Memory, Short-Term-Memory, and our episodic memory to create a better experience? A few short design exercises will follow where I explore some of these possibilities.

Pastor Jamal Harrison-Bryant Discusses The Black Vote and Obama's Gay Support [VIDEO]
Pastor Riva Tims Withdraws New Destiny Lawsuit, But God Has Not Withdrawn His Plan
Although, Riva Tims has withdrawn her lawsuit against the board members of New Destiny Christian Center, God has not withdrawn his plan for this ministry and it is not over. God is not happy with the outcome of the late Dr. Zachery Tims church, because that is His House, it does not belong to Paula White or the board of NDCC. New Destiny was designed by the late Dr. Zachery and Co-Founder, Pastor Riva Tims and this should be always remembered as such, not just an applause for Zachery Tims as his photo is shown on the screen every Sunday.
Now, that Pastor Riva Tims is moving on with her church, Majestic Life Ministries she founded since her divorce, God will reveal himself. And after it is really all over, the members whom still support New Destiny Christian Center will have no choice but to join Majestic Life Ministries or move on to another church. Why? Because God does not and will not ever ordain a ministry of how it was left by the late Dr. Zachery Tims and then ignore the previous expectations by the board: to either choose Pastor Riva Tims…Read full article, here.

Are We In A Worst Nightmare After The Death of Zachery Tims, Witnessing His Church In Leadership Of Paula White?
Saints of God, are you reading this right now? Because if you are, it is seems as though we are living in a worst nightmare after the death of Zachery Tims and we cannot wake up. Is this real? Have we just witnessed Paula White taking the position as pastor over Zachery Tims church, after he was allegedly discovered dead in New York? Is this suppose to be God's people still in that church supporting this transition of leadership, after the death of their dead pastor? What is God saying about all of this? Do they even care how God feels about all of this? That's what hurts so bad.
Zachery Tims' Mother, Madeline Allegedly Hiding Autopsy and Toxicology Results Is Nothing New
Now, one of our main journalists mentioned in a previous article that it is nothing new, regarding the black church covering up the death of ministers who died of horrible causes, such as AIDS or drug overdose. Allegedly, it has happened in various situations. One of the most popular cases was in the prior death results involving the King of Gospel, Rev. James Cleveland. Death results revealed the late Rev. James Cleveland either died of a heart attack or respiratory failure, allegedly. When the late Rev. Cleveland's adopted son came out to the press and confessed a sexual affair since a young teen Christopher Harris Cleveland also mentioned James Cleveland died of AIDS, according to article, 'And The Choir Sings On'. His foster son also admitted he himself was HIV positive at the time of his confession to the media. Therefore, AToast2Wealth.com was very accurate when they mentioned the black church has been covering up for many years now, since the birth of AIDS. However, one of the main reasons why the double lifestyles of preachers are covered up in most, is simply because of their mothers. In the black culture, black men are overprotected by their mothers many times and in this case of Zachery Tims, it reveals that his mother Madeline is covering up his death results, because that is the nature of many black mothers.
Did Bishop Eddie Long Learn Anything From The Tragedy of Zachery Tims?
We ask you this very serious question, because every since the death of Zachery Tims, we see nothing has changed in the church services at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church. Did Bishop Eddie Long learn anything from Zachery Tims death? No, God did not cause Zachery Tims to die, but he allowed his death to get the attention of these crooked ministers, just like many others who were killed in various tragedies many years ago.
Evangelist Shane Perry First Guest Speaker to Preach at Zachery Tims Church Since Paula White
Evangelist Perry who is national evangelist ordained by the Church of God in Christ will be speaking next Sunday at the late Dr. Zachery Tims' church, New Destiny Christian Center in Orlando, Florida. We do not know much about Evangelist Perry, except what we have seen on his website. He is a native of Birmingham, Alabama and was called into the ministry at 19 years old. He claims he was homeless and moved into a 1.5 million home in one year and mentions it on this following video. He seems to have the same preaching style as Paula White, shouting and getting a tune to gain popularity among black followers that freely give tithes and offerings. However, he must be known among many congregations to be invited to speak at the late Dr. Zachery Tims' church.
Alleged Satanic Illuminati Ministers Could Never Help Dr. Zachery Tims, If His Soul Was Possibly a Blood Sacrifice
Note: We are not saying that any of these ministers were connected to this possible blood sacrifice, but possibly someone who knew Pastor Tims, very well. Our blog network has already informed you about the Satanic Illuminati, the secret society who has membership of very important people and many church people refuse to believe the truth, but allegedly, many of these ministers who are famous and very wealthy are a part of the Satanic Illuminati. It is not something that is just talk, but it is real.
Zachery Tims Funeral, A Special Day For Deliverance
Today, thousands of people are paying their last respect to Dr. Zachery Tims. He was a loving, kind and considerate man of God, but allegedly and according to his past testimony, he had a drug addiction and people seem to want to not give him the credit he deserves because of it. It does not matter what was discovered on this man of God's body. He was honest while he was alive. He never lied about his past and was always out to win souls for the Kingdom, this is not something we can say about a lot of pastors who stand up and preach out of God's Word. Indeed, Zachery Tims will always be respected for not being shy and ashamed about his past to testify.
Hundreds of Mourners Line Up for Zachery Tims' Public Wake Service
Hundreds of Mourners Line Up for Zachery Tims' Public Wake Service
Hundreds of people showed up to mourn the death of New Destiny Christian Center Pastor Zachery Tims, Friday evening in Apopka. Some people waited in line for nearly one hour to get inside the church for the public viewing, reported WFTV in Orlando.
Hundreds, if not thousands, of church members and pastors from across the country were expected to fill New Destiny Christian Center to pay their final respects to Tims.
"Everyone is coming to remember him, and give honor where honor is due for this man of God who went on to be with the Lord," said church member T.J. Bristol.
Thousands to Pay Last Respects to Zachery Tims Today
Mourners from around the world will pay their last respects this weekend to Dr. Zachery Tims, Jr., the founder and senior pastor of one of Florida's most largest churches. Today is the wake for the life of the late Dr. Tims, a man who cared about people. Tims was found dead at the upscale W hotel in New York city in the area of Times Square. Hotel faculty discovered the late minister's body, after he failed to answer the door. When they entered the suite, Tims body was lying face up on the floor. Police arrived and discovered a white powdery substance in his pocket. However, so far, they have not ruled his death as a homicide, but investigators are not finished with their investigation of doing further autopsy reports and searching cell phone records to find out why he died.

10 Cars That Were Ahead of Their Time
Among enthusiasts of any topic, picking a top-10 list is like picking a fight. Whether you're talking baseball, physics or cars, so many factors influence the finalists that consensus is hard to come by. The following list attempts to balance a number of characteristics. Foremost, we valued design, packaging and engineering innovations that would influence the automotive industry as a whole. Many significant cars, therefore, didn't make the list. For example, the 1957 to '59 Ford Skyliner was a forerunner to today's retractable hardtops. We didn't think that innovation was important for making the list, but it certainly deserves an honorable mention. Ditto for the first cars sold with airbags, various full-size 1973 Chevrolet and Oldsmobile models. Consider the following list a conversation starter to be used at your next BBQ. You have 125 years of cars to consider.

For years, the Knicks have lacked depth at the point guard position. Since the departure of Stephon Marbury in 2009, the Knicks haven't had a viable and productive option at point guard. That all changed last season in a 25 game stretch with the emergence of Jeremy Lin, a guard whom the Knicks claimed off-waivers from the Houston Rockets.
Now, in the summer of 2012, Lin is a free agent and has signed an offer sheet with the team whom waived him after training camp. The Knicks are expected to match any offer made toward Lin, and to validate Lin as their point guard of the future, the Knicks have gone after several experienced floor generals to help tutor Lin.
Knicks GM Glen Grunwald made several attempts at signing two-time MVP Steve Nash, but they were spurned by Nash when he signed with the Lakers.
Knicks forward Carmello Anthony was shocked when Nash decided to sign with the Lakers, but those sentiments about Nash were forgotten when Grunwald shocked the basketball world and announced the signing of legendary point guard and future Hall Of Famer Jason Kidd.
"I was shocked to hear Nash was going to the Lakers,'' Anthony said Friday after the U.S. Olympic Team opened training camp in Las Vegas. "I honestly really thought he'd be in New York. But it was definitely a shock. To hear the J-Kidd news kind of took that burden off a bit."
The Kidd and Lin tandem is going to help the Knicks on several fronts. The chemistry issue between Anthony and Amare Stoudemire will greatly benefit from the presence of Kidd. The addition of Jason Kidd provides the Knicks with a player who can defend on the perimeter, rebound the ball, and shoot the open three.
Even with being the second oldest player in the NBA, at age 39, Kidd is still a respected floor general who demands the most from his teammates.
"It really doesn't matter; Steve Nash, Jason Kidd. A point guard is a point guard,'' Anthony said. "Someone to run the team, get guys in their position, get everyone going. It takes a lot of pressure off me to try to do everything out there. I can pick my spots. With Jason, it's a point guard to bring the ball up the court and get everyone involved. I don't have to do much ball-handling. My mindset is working off the ball a lot; this helps me out to prepare for that".
Kidd is now reunited with former Dallas Maverick teammate Tyson Chandler. Chandler flourished under Kidd on the offensive end of the court due to Kidd's use of the pick and roll. With Kidd as his PG in Dallas, Chandler had one of the best scoring averages of his career – 10.11 points 9.35 rebounds, and 1.44 blocks per game.
"I talked to him all summer,'' Chandler said. "I honestly didn't think we had a good shot at him. I thought New York would be a great place for him. I expressed that to him. I was just as surprised as everyone else when he made the decision. I feel like he definitely has a lot left,'' Chandler said. "I'd throw his age out the window. He's definitely valued on the court, but he's more valued off the court. Whether in the locker room, film, in the huddle, he's unbelievable"
Kidd will be a valuable asset in helping the development of Lin. Yes, Lin did take the NBA by storm last season, but he only did it in 25 games playing against less than stellar teams. There are still too many questions about Lin's game. Can he defend on a consistent basis? Can he score on a consistent basis? Does he still have trouble going left? How can he get on the same page with the rest of his teammates?
When Anthony returned from injury during the height of "Linsanity," he struggled playing alongside Lin. It wasn't until after Lin went down with an injury and was ruled out for the remainder of the season, that Anthony found his stride and had the best stretch of his Knick career during Lin's absence during the month of April.
Kidd, in an interview on WFAN yesterday, said, "With the intention of signing Lin back, I saw that I can help. Hopefully, help them win and help Lin. He's a talented point guard, so at this stage I just felt I could help those guys. I think he's going to be a consistent player, then it's up to the media to label him great or good. But if you're consistent in the league, you'll win a lot of ballgames. So that's what I'm here to try to help him with.''
Kidd was rumored to sign with Brooklyn as a package deal alongside Deron Williams. That rumor seemed to gain steam when a picture of Williams and Kidd surfaced of the two of them playing golf together.
"I thought it was a good spot for him, a good situation for him,'' Williams said. "Number one, he can help that team out a lot; as far as distributing the ball, getting the ball in the right spots, taking the pressure off Carmelo to lead the team. He's definitely a veteran guy who knows how to play the game and will be a Hall of Famer. He doesn't have to do as much as he had to do with Dallas. At his age, it will help him out a lot. I thought he was going to Dallas. We didn't even talk about the Knicks. It kind of came out of nowhere.''
Kidd will make everyone on the Knicks better, and will help the long term development of Jeremy Lin. He will help mature this roster from immature players who fold even when some expectations are accepted from them, and finally he will bring this franchise something they haven't had since the days of Patrick Ewing – respectability.

Joseph Fusco sworn in as new mayor of Rome
ROME, N.Y. (WKTV) - Joseph Fusco became the city's 76th mayor Saturday afternoon shortly after noon. He was sworn in by Rome City Court Judge Dan Wilson.
Afterward, Fusco took time to thank the man he beat in November's election by just 81 votes, James Brown. Fusco said, "I would also like to thank Jim Brown and his administrative staff for eight years of public service and their strong committment to bettering our community. We acknowledge and appreciate your efforts. Thank you."
Several hundred people filled the historic Capitol Theatre, including Congressman Richard Hanna.
Hanna gave a brief statement on stage and told Fusco that it's a tough time to be a politician and said "this country has to learn to live within its means."
"So as the new year dawns, we must come together as a community and be ready, willing and able to make the necessary sacrifices and do whatever it takes to bring forth the change needed to create a brighter future for the city of Rome, both socially and economically," Fusco said.
Fusco said he asked that the seven members of Rome's City Council be sworn in on the same stage to show a sign of unity that all parties will work together for the betterment of Rome.
The very emotional day was topped off by the swearing in of Council member Anthony D'Arcangelo who is still recovering from a stroke a few months ago.

Veolia Water North America Celebrates Forty-Year Relationship With The City Of Burlingame
Veolia Water North America (Veolia) announced that today marks the 40 th anniversary of its partnership with the City of Burlingame, Calif., for management of the city's wastewater treatment facility. This milestone represents both the first and longest-running public-private partnership in the U.S. wastewater industry. During this time, the partnership has improved the city's services to residents, generated millions of dollars in savings, and garnered multiple awards for operational excellence and safety.
"It's been an honor to work closely with the City of Burlingame and its residents in this historic environmental partnership," said Bill Toci, Veolia project manager in Burlingame, who has managed operations at the plant since 2001. "Veolia has been here 40 years, and we're proud of our record. Beginning with our first assignment in 1972, the partnership has been successful because of our commitment to the community first and foremost, and to the mutual respect and collegial collaboration we share with the city. We look forward to being part of Burlingame for many years to come."
Forty years ago, the bayside city of Burlingame, a city of approximately 36,000 located south of San Francisco, suffered from a range of problems at its wastewater treatment plant. In response, city officials turned to a private-sector partner to help alleviate their issues, forging the first U.S. public-private partnership for the operation of a wastewater treatment facility and municipal wastewater services in the process. After assuming responsibility, Veolia worked closely with the city to implement focused operations, maintenance and management processes, and began to roll out programs to help solve the plant's problems.
As a result of these efforts, the facility has received numerous awards and recognition from leading industry groups. The partnership was granted the State of California Safety Award from the California Water Environment Association in the small plant category five times, and won the George Burke Safety award for best safety program in the State of California twice. Further, the facility has not had a single lost-time accident in the past 16 years and Veolia has been able to reduce energy costs by approximately $100,000 annually.

After the polar vortex releases its grip, you'll want to make sure you inspect a key area of your home.
Depending on where you live, you may have icicles hanging from your gutters. If you start seeing a significant build-up of ice and snow on your roof, that could be a warning sign that an ice dam has formed, preventing melting snow from draining off.
You'll want to make sure you remove snow from the roof by using a special tool called a roof rake. It will help push snow off the roof without causing damage to your shingles.
The experts at Angie's List recommend properly ventilating and insulating your attic to avoid ice dams on the roof. They also say never walk on a snow covered roof and do not use chemicals to melt snow off the roof.
If you're unsure of what to do, always call a professional. A good place to start is by calling a roof contractor.
Also, if you have an older home, try to keep the drains clear.

Storm forces Bruins game to be postponed
Updated On: Feb 09 2013 04:15:01 PM EST
The massive snowstorm that crippled the Northeast forced the NHL to postpone Saturday's game between the Boston Bruins and the Tampa Bay Lightning at the TD Garden.
Although Gov. Deval Patrick lifted the statewide driving ban by 4 p.m., the MBTA was to remain closed until further notice. NHL officials said travel conditions remained too hazardous for fans, security personnel and Garden staff to get to the arena.
A make-up date would be announced as soon as possible.

A little bit of history - bear with me......cutting quite a bit of history out here but you will get the point!
In the good old days (pre PC) there were mainframes, these mainly ran prorietory OS, you choose the manufacturer and the OS to suit your application.
It's where the saying "no one ever got sacked for buying IBM" came from, because you could choose a wacky OS... but the sensible Pre-Geeks bought IBM.
In the late 1970's the Digital Computer Company made Unix the front runner with its VAX/VMS Hardware/OS combination. This was further enhanced by the addition of Floating Point Accelerators (FPA).
Then came the PC, with Bill's hijacked OS, MS-DOS.....and the world went PC crazy.
Gradually over time PC's became the dominant partner, but reliability was crap.
MS-DOS was eventually reliable (and is still used in embedded products) but "Windows" - Bill's attempt at short circuiting Apple, was a nightmare.
Years and years of Windows were released until XP.....finally a reliable Windows....
...and guess what. XP is driven by the old VMS team - yes, its got a UNIX base - you won't get MS admitting it, but its true.
And now? Now we have Vista, built by the MS Alpha Team (not the XP guys)... and its not as good as XP? Possibly? But which team is writing Windows 7?
You guessed it.......and why is it being pushed forward by two years?
So, soon the argument is going to be pointless, the world is going to have a UNIX base, Linux/Windows you choose but underneath its UNIX.
More history....
OS-X is based on NextStep. A BSD Unix distribution based on a Mach microkernel. NextStep dates from around 1988, yes OS X is over 20 years old!
All versions of OS-X have been BSD Unix and AFAIK POSIX complient. With OS X 10.5 (Leopard) the OS was finally officially certified as a BSD Unix operating system.
I disagree. There is going to be a place for Windows for a long time yet, and even then the OS market is going to be unrecognisable in any case.
All true....but ultimately!
Its the smart young ladies and gentlemen in today's schools that will decide what and how "computers" are used....Windows on Linux, Linux on Windows?
It will be the processing power that makes it all happen.
And my money on the world in 10 years time will be.....opensource; and maybe not as we know it today. Something somewhere just now emerging is likely to be the winner, not what we have today.
I remember when IBM were so dominant that MS pales into insignificance by comparison...they made one wrong move and poof, ask any teenager if they have heard of IBM - they proved to me that it all moves so fast in computing you just cannot recapture what you lost.
Ten bob with anyone! (Thats 50p to most of you).
A lots got to happen for Windows to disappear. OpenOffice is making very strong in-roads. OS X is catching the publics imagination. And both KDE and Gnome are bring *nix to a point were it is a serious alternative on the Desktop.
But M$ have two very important markets sown up. The cooperate and the hard-core gamer. Linux and VMWare are starting to push M$ in the server room but not on the desktop. And M$ is fighting back hard with Hyper-V and unlimited VM's in Windows Datacenter.
If M$ or Sony can convince the hard core gamer to leave the PC and move to console land, if Apple can continue to convert the light home PC user (the word and internet only crowd), if OpenOffice can continue to improve M$ Office compatibility or Cloud computing can provide a viable web based alternative, then possibly Windows may become a fading memory.
I hope to $(deity) it's not KDE4... 4.1, perhaps, just not 4. *begs*
Heh... "I really like its flicky action"
It's all well and good showing mr and mrs average KDE4 and letting them believe its Win7. But when they get it home and can't install there printer, broadband or favourite game - the OP's mouse problem starts to pale into insignificance.
(I worked at Digital at the time on the first 11/780).
Windows is just a GUI after all, the kernal is the important part and that is the point I am trying to make. The success of NT changed the face of MS, successfully and for the better and became the basis of (at last) a stable MS product.
VMS undoubtably came from a UNIX(like) stable and so the genes can be traced right back. Irrespective of the name of the OS; most OS originally came from a strong core of programmers in the US and I might add the UK.
There is no accident in the MS team also including former Bell Labs employees (or did).
It's a tenuous link I admit but its there one I like to throw in whenever I hear arguments about Linux and MS. At the end of the day is end user usability, peer pressure and marketing that got us where we are today.
Strange thing is that there is a version of Linux working on an original 1979 Vax 11/780 right now.
And if you ever get the chance to work on Embedded XP you will immediately see how the structure of XP is similar to Unix and the methodology of 'C'.
I can also tell you that MS did make a foray into Linux would you believe? Why not, the core is free and anyone can use it - it made commercial sense apart from one thing, marketing. They then tried to get Linux blocked by throwing money at SCO - who claimed ownership of key parts (and still do).
Now the question is where are we going? It might finally be the credit crunch that starts the opensource wheel rolling properly.
And watch IBM.....there is life in the old blue yet! They have some old scores to settle......oh, and a big wallet and a relationship with Sun.
IBM - Collaboration solutions - United States
(No I don't work for IBM).

Arkansas Children's House to Receive $1M from Heartland Bank, Terry and Walter Quinn
Posted 12/2/2013 09:10 am
Updated 1 year ago
Heartland Bank of Bryant announced Monday a $1 million cornerstone gift for the Arkansas Children's House facility at Arkansas Children's Hospital.
A $500,000 gift was made by the bank's Heartland Foundation, its newly created charitable arm, which was matched by Terry and Walter Quinn of Little Rock, the bank's majority shareholders and longtime supporters of the facility.
Arkansas Children's House provides a homelike atmosphere for children to receive comprehensive, forensic medical exams related to child maltreatment. The facility was created to provide comfortable settings to minimize trauma for children who must undergo examinations for abuse. Referrals to the facility are made by physicians, law enforcement or the state Department of Human Services.
The Heartland Foundation has planned more giving for December. Later this month, it will donate $10,000 for the Children's Center at Our House; $10,000 for the Forensic Interview Program at the Children's Protection Center; $3,750 for the Food for Kids Program at the Arkansas Rice Depot; $2,500 for the Teach Grant Program at Economic Arkansas; $2,500 to The Beyond Batten Disease Foundation; and $2,500 to the Arkansas Tech Foundation.
"Heartland Bank is a community bank," said Heartland Bank president and CEO Rick O'Brien. "We can think of no better way to serve our communities than to protect and nurture our children."

CINCINNATI (AP) — The Cincinnati surgeon who wrote the book on saving choking victims through his namesake Heimlich maneuver has now penned a new book: his memoir.
Dr. Henry Heimlich's views on how the maneuver should be used and on other innovations he has created or proposed have put him at odds with some in the health field. But he hopes his recently published memoir will preserve the technique that has cleared obstructions from windpipes of choking victims around the world for four decades and made his name a household word.
"I know the maneuver saves lives, and I want it to be used and remembered," the 94-year-old retired chest surgeon told The Associated Press this month. "I felt I had to have it down in print so the public will have the correct information."
Much of his autobiography — "Heimlich's Maneuvers: My Seventy Years of Lifesaving Innovation" — focuses on the maneuver, which involves thrusts to the abdomen that apply upward pressure on the diaphragm to create an air flow forcing food or other objects out of the windpipe.
Heimlich says thousands of deaths reported annually from choking prompted him in 1972 to seek a solution. Over the next two years, leading a team of researchers at Jewish Hospital in Cincinnati, he successfully tested the technique by putting a tube with a balloon at one end down an anesthetized dog's airway until it choked. He then used the maneuver to force the dog to expel the obstruction.
"By 1974, I knew I needed to get the maneuver to the public as soon as possible to save lives," he said.
He appeared on radio and television shows including "Good Morning America" and "Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson" and started hearing from people who had used the maneuver or been saved by it.
The maneuver made headlines again this month. Clint Eastwood was attending a golf event in Monterey, Calif., when the 83-year-old actor saw the tournament director choking on a piece of cheese and successfully performed the technique.
"The best thing about it is that it allows anyone to save a life," Heimlich said.
Anne Jutt of Mason, a Cincinnati suburb, said Heimlich will always be a hero to her family. She used the maneuver last spring when her 6-year-old son was choking on a cherry tomato.
"I was scared of hurting him, but he was starting to get limp," she said. "I put everything I had into it, and the tomato flew out like a bullet."
Heimlich says the maneuver is very effective when used correctly, but he does not approve of American Red Cross guidelines calling for back blows followed by abdominal thrusts in choking cases that don't involve infants or unconscious victims. Red Cross officials say evidence shows using multiple methods can be more effective, but Heimlich says blows can drive obstructions deeper into a windpipe. The American Heart Association backs abdominal thrusts.
Neither organization supports Heimlich's view that using the maneuver to remove water from the lungs could save drowning victims. They recommend CPR.
"There is no evidence that abdominal thrusts are effective for drowning victims," said Dr. Robert Neumar, chairman of the Emergency Cardiovascular Care Committee of the American Heart Association.
Heimlich points with pride to some of his other innovations, such as a chest drain valve credited by some with saving soldiers and civilians during the Vietnam War. But he has drawn sharp criticism for his theory that injecting patients with a curable form of malaria could trigger immunity in patients with the HIV virus that causes AIDS. Medical experts have said injecting patients with malaria would be dangerous and have criticized Heimlich for conducting studies involving malariotherapy on HIV patients in China.
Heimlich mostly brushes off criticism about his work.
"I'll be the first to admit that a number of my ideas are controversial and in some ways unorthodox," Heimlich said. "But I have enough guts to know that when I am right, it will come about as the thing to do, even if others do the wrong thing for a time."
Heimlich now lives in an assisted-living facility but responds to emails and letters about his work and makes guest appearances with the Heimlich Heroes program. The program designed to teach young people how to use the Heimlich maneuver allows him to still pursue his passion for saving lives.
"And I'm not done yet," he said with a grin.
