Health insurance markets open; site slow to respond

More than 70,000 unique visitors made their way to the Get Covered Illinois online marketplace Tuesday to find out about new options for health insurance in the state, but many had trouble actually viewing how much these insurance rates would cost.
It was the first date Illinoisans — and millions of other Americans — could peruse online health care marketplaces at the core of President Barack Obama's health care reforms.
Get Covered Illnois is the gateway website that was supposed to be the place where the uninsured could see if they qualified for Medicaid or one of the new options for health insurance in the online marketplace. It was also the first date they could enroll for a new plan that wasn't previously available.
Both the expansion of Medicaid and the creation of online marketplace, starting Oct. 1, were two pieces of the Affordable Care Act – more informally known as 'Obamacare' – that are supposed to greatly diminish the number of uninsured Americans.
The shutdown of the federal government will have no immediate effect on the insurance marketplaces that are the backbone of the law, because they operate with money that isn't subject to the annual budget wrangling in Washington.
The Obama administration hopes to sign up 7 million people during the first year and aims to eventually sign up at least half of the nearly 50 million uninsured Americans through an expansion of Medicaid or government-subsidized plans.
In Illinois, 1.6 million people are uninsured.
But efforts early Tuesday to access the online marketplace in Illinois prompted a message saying traffic to the site was heavy. The website churned slowly to the login page, but eventually got there.
Still, the Sun-Times and many consumers weren't able to view a full list of the 165 plans that was supposed to be made available for Illinois on the online marketplace. The Sun-Times obtained more examples of the Illinois health plans from the U.S. Deparment of Health and Human Services, at www.healthcare.gov/health-plan-information.
The state government said the landing website, www.getcoveredillinois.gov — the first stop before the site redirects visitors to the Medicaid website or a federal website where visitors can find information about their homestate's marketplace — had few problems and got 65,043 unique visitors at www.getcoveredillinois.gov.
And 6,157 people as of 9:30 a.m. actually went through the process of answering questions such as how much they made a month, so the website could determine whether they should be directed to Medicaid website or go the federal website with the online marketplace.
But the federal website with the online marketplaces for Illinois and other states prompted a message saying traffic to the site was too heavy to access, as of early Tuesday evening.
Many states reported similar problems.
Federal officials told the Associated Press they were working to address the website problems as quickly as possible. People contacting the federal call center also reported long wait times.
Those who were sent to the Medicaid website, though, did not have significant issues. The state received more than 4,000 online applications submitted there.
Gov. Pat Quinn made a speech earlier in the day, saying Tuesday was a big day for the uninsured.
"Today we are launching a new state of health care for more than one million of our uninsured relatives, loved ones, friends and neighbors," Quinn said. "While there may be bumps along the way, this is a turning point in our nation and the state as we strive to provide decent health care to all."
Many have noted that Oct. 1 is just the start date and that use of the website in Illinois and other states will likely build over time.
"You don't walk into a car lot and buy the first car that you see," said Jim Duffett, Executive Director of Campaign for Better Health Care. "So even for more important purchases like health insurance, we definitely expect people to take some time and think carefully and weigh their option."
For that reason, the fact that few so-called navigators were actually out Tuesday to help the public enroll the first day did not appear to be a big deal, the Sun-Times found. The trained navigators or "in-person counselors" are available to walk the uninsured through the process.
To find out more, state officials recommended that people interested in getting some help with the marketplace call ahead to their local community organization designated as a Get Covered Illinois partner and schedule in advance an appointment with a navigator. Illinois residents can find a list of partner organizations by visiting www.getcoveredillinois.gov, the state said.
Consumers have until March 31, 2014 to enroll on the marketplace, though they must enroll by Dec. 15 to get service to start on Jan. 1, 2014. People applying for Medicaid can enroll any time.
Those interested in learning more can call the Help Desk to get information at (866) 311-1119, a toll-free number, if they have any questions. The call center will be open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., the state government said.
The federal government also has a call center at (800) 318-2596 and a website at healthcare.gov.
Beginning January 1, 2014, all Americans will be required to get health insurance or pay a fine. Anyone who doesn't buy insurance will face a $95 penalty when they file their tax returns in 2015. The penalty will continue to increase each year according to cost-of-living increases.

The other day I had to listen to a highly annoying round of WAZZZZUUUUP!!!! by a handful of players until I finally just turned off voice chat in disgust. A player once spent the whole DM talking about how high he was and giggling into the mic. A player once chewed out a guy at length in Team DM for friendly fire, before realizing he was on the wrong team and it wasn't a teammate. Players take it upon themselves to bark orders at the team, as if anyone cared or as if they even knew what they were doing to begin with. If they'd shut up and do their thing, maybe they'd score a point or two instead of being at the bottom of the list. To say the large part of the community that talk both have no manners and no sportsmanship is an understatement. I wanted to see voice chat built into UT, but now that it's here I question that choice. I've yet to see it put to any good use, I've only had one or two good laughs from it, and mainly I've just have been annoyed by it every day. The chatters can go to IRC, the talkers can get a freaking cellphone and call their friends so I don't have to hear it. In short, anyone who'd actually use a mic is probably the sort you wouldn't want to. |

Offence taken X-play....
I agree with the comment on not needing any other shooter.... ever.
As for the comment on the online behaviour of the Unreal community the writer has illustrated their abject ignorance by doing what ignorant people do which is generalise or "paint all with the same brush" (paraphrased). Having spent some time in forums and a lot of time online (in my various "disguise" handles) I can say that you will get some behaviour which is silly (that is acceptable as far as people having fun goes) and rarely is there any need to take offence. Forums illustrate that there are a lot of articulate, serious people out there that are gamers who are capable of serious and intelligent comment (but who also like to have fun) which totally belies the comments of the quoted writer. The writer seems to have completly overlooked the fact that online anonymity also provides the anonymity of age as well. Possibly some of the gamers he came up against have not got the life experience to act differently. (Or perhaps he got fragged by a ten-year-old who is better than her/she is by a quantum factor). As for me there is a phrase that paints this writer with a certain brush: "TARGET PRACTICE". I'll be seeing you on the net; any time, any server.....

I've heard plenty of foolishness, but I've also been part of games where people were using the VOIP very very well. I just hate that we all get that same moniker in his eyes. It's great to be known as the "childish" community.

the statement has some truth to it, but its with all online FPS games really. the fact that these games are virtual representations of u running around killing ppl brings out the worst in some. the amount of immaturity is very large. however i also make the distinction of someone whos trying to have fun and being semi-annoying (hey thats life, gotta deal with it) and those who purposefully "play" the game in such a way that theyre only in it to be a nuisance to others. one of the reasons i really like xfire is that u start playing with the same ppl over and over, and sorta get to know them. its def a lot more fun that way

Apparently the reviewer has neither turned off the "public" voice channel nor even played much CS.
Lately when I go on the ONS servers, the people who do use VOIP are actually using it for "teamwork". When this game first came out, there were people who you couldn't even hear, but now I think they figured out how to speak clearly (plus cranking the voice chat volume on my end really helps). Only once did I come across an annoying kid, but I think he'll go back to playing Pokemon for now on. BTW, the review of the game on the X Play show is much better and more concise. Not to mention how neat that Morgan Web is a Unreal fangrrl... |

Drew Peterson let out of jail briefly to see mother in funeral home
BY DAN ROZEK Staff email@example.com October 11, 2012 10:08AM
Drew Peterson leaves the Will County Courthouse in Joliet, Ill., after his 2009 arraignment . File Photo. (AP Photo/M. Spencer Green, File)

Updated: November 13, 2012 6:24AM
As attorneys battled over who's representing him, convicted killer Drew Peterson was briefly whisked Thursday out of the Will County Jail to pay a final visit to his deceased mother.
Peterson was quietly escorted by "a bunch" of sheriff's deputies from Joliet to a Darien funeral home to say goodbye to his mother, 84-year-old Betty Morphey, defense attorney Joel Brodsky said.
"It's sad this had to happen," said Brodsky, estimating Peterson was given nearly 30 minutes to see his mother, who died Monday.
Except for Peterson's block-long trips to the courthouse for legal proceedings, the journey marks the first time he has left the jail since his May 2009 arrest on murder charges. Counting his travel time, Peterson was outside the jail for about an hour, a source said.
Will County's top prosecutor James Glasgow said he had no advanced knowledge about the trip.
"If I had been asked for my advice, I would have advised strongly against it because of the obvious risks involved. However, the sheriff has custody of Mr. Peterson," he said.
The surprise trip came as Brodsky and Naperville attorney John Paul Carroll clashed over who's going to represent the 58-year-old former cop convicted last month of drowning his third wife, Kathleen Savio in 2004.
Carroll wasn't involved in Peterson's grinding five-week trial, but he abruptly filed a motion earlier this week contending Peterson's conviction should be overturned because his legal team--led by Brodsky--botched his defense.
Carroll claims Peterson--whom he and co-counsel Michelle Gonzalez met with in the jail Thursday morning--wants him to step in to replace Brodsky.
"He gave me the go-ahead to represent him," Carroll said, adding Peterson also approved filing a request to toss out his conviction because his lawyers were ineffective and made critical errors during the trial.
"He said, 'go ahead,'" Carroll contended.
Brodsky--who has represented Peterson for nearly five years--disputed that.
Peterson confirmed in a phone call Thursday afternoon that he doesn't want to change attorneys, Brodsky said.
"He trusts me, he knows I'm only looking out for his best interests," said Brodsky, claiming Carroll offered Peterson only "crazy advice" during two jailhouse meetings.
"I straightened him out. Drew knows I'm not going to lie to him," said Brodsky, who filed his own motion Thursday seeking to boot Carroll off the case.
He also wants them held in contempt for filing a "totally and completely unauthorized" request to overturn Peterson's conviction.
Carroll and Gonzalez were supposed to meet with Peterson only to discuss legal issues pertaining to his police pension, Brodsky said.
Brodsky contended Peterson may not have been thinking clearly during his discussions with Carroll--particularly on Thursday--because he was upset about his mother's death.
"I'm sorry Drew had to endure the haranguing of a snake oil salesman on the day he had to go visit his mother," Brodsky said.
For his part, Carroll acknowledged urging Peterson to dump Brodsky as his attorney.
"I said to him, 'you're drowning and you're holding a stone. I said, 'let go of the stone and I'll save you.'" Carroll recounted.
A Friday hearing before Judge Edward Burmila could determine who's going to be Peterson's lawyer.
"I think there's a possibility the judge will tell Mr. Brodsky he's out," Carroll said. Brodsky ridiculed that claim, saying he's confident Peterson will stick with him.
"If the client tells the judge he's not interested, that's it," Brodsky said.

Heads Up: Lanvin Is On the Outnet Today
As of this morning, Theoutnet.com is flooded with Lanvin pieces marked as much as 70 percent off. We expect the stock to dry up soon, though—Lanvin's cutomers may be ladylike, but they aren't timid about snatching up those drapey silk dresses and sparkly cocktail rings. If this were an in-person sample sale, French manicured fists would be flying.
This stuff will be gone quickly even by TheOutnet.com's standards; while the metallic sandals and tweed skirts aren't exactly cheap, there are some very impressive deals. (Considering that you could carry it for a lifetime, $600 doesn't sound like too, too much to pay for one of the brand's classic handbags, does it?)

Globalstar Supports FCC Efforts to Relieve "Wi-Fi Traffic Jam"
COVINGTON, La., Jan 21, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE via COMTEX) -- Globalstar, Inc. (OTCBB:GSAT), today expressed its support for Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Genachowski's recent call to boost Wi-Fi Speed and Reduce Wi-Fi Congestion in order to spur further wireless innovation for an ever increasing mobile world. "As consumer adoption of wireless devices continues to soar, Wi-Fi congestion is becoming a critical problem for consumers and innovators," Chairman Genachowski said.
As announced in November, Globalstar has petitioned the FCC to obtain the regulatory flexibility necessary to use its licensed MSS spectrum terrestrially to support mobile broadband applications throughout the United States, including Wi-Fi. Globalstar's petition for rulemaking has received public comments, to which the company will officially respond on January 29.
"Wi-Fi availability should never be the problem, but rather should be the solution to ensuring that consumers can stay connected and have a positive experience regardless of their increasingly crowded surroundings," said Jay Monroe, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Globalstar. "Participation and support from the wireless industry is needed to ensure that this Terrestrial Low Power Service is implemented successfully." Globalstar's Terrestrial Low Power Service ("TLPS") would maximize the wireless capacity available within the 2.4 GHz Industrial Scientific and Medical ("ISM") band where most Wi-Fi use currently exists, while causing no detrimental impact on other existing or future unlicensed uses in that band, including existing and future Wi-Fi use in Channel 11 and existing and future Bluetooth use throughout the 2.4 GHz ISM band. TLPS represents an opportunity for the manufacture and deployment of additional carrier-grade access points that will help eliminate the "critical problem" that Chairman Genachowski has identified.
FierceWireless Webinar. L. Barbee Ponder of Globalstar and John Dooley of Jarvinian will discuss the company's TLPS proposal in FierceWireless' Tuesday, January 22, 2013 webinar, "Globalstar's New Wi-Fi Super Highway" at 11:00 EST. The Company will address the technical aspects of the proposed TLPS deployment, expected consumer benefits, business opportunities and the outlook for near-term relief from the FCC.

Background and Purpose of the Syracuse Community Treatment Court (SCTC)
The SCTC is a special part of the Syracuse City Court intended to integrate chemical dependency treatment and the criminal justice system. The rationale for the SCTC and other drug courts around the country is that the delivery of comprehensive treatment services under judicial supervision and a system graduated sanctions will reduce drug dependency and recidivism in the nonviolent offender and return him/her to the community as a productive citizen.
The SCTC is based upon the premise that the treatment effectiveness requires attentiveness to the needs of the whole person, not only his/her addiction. The SCTC consists of a comprehensive plan that includes treatment, assistance with education, vocational training, housing, employment and counseling. The model requires cooperation among the prosecution, defense, treatment and community resource agencies.
Program Description
Eligible defendants who choose to participate in this program are required to appear regularly before the SCTC judge who has the sole authority to confer awards for progress and impose penalties for noncompliance. The judge takes an active interest in all aspects of participants' lives and supervise their treatment for substance abuse as well as their receipt of support services. Treatment for substance abuse consists of inpatient (if needed), intensive outpatient services, and aftercare and housing when required.
SCTC Program Components
The contract between the SCTC and the defendant will include but not be limited to:
- compliance with court ordered and supervised treatment and participation in other rehabilitation activities such as education or job training.
- acceptance and fulfillment of any sanctions imposed by the SCTC judge
- compliance with the law and compliance with other mandates of the SCTC including community sJanuary 23, 2014 to appear regularly before the SCTC for judicial supervision, on average every three to four weeks. This schedule of court appearances can be abbreviated, if needed, and emergency hearings for non compliant participants and those in danger of relapse will be handled on a case by case basis. Treatment and community resource agencies will report to the SCTC judge each time a defendant appears in court.
Eligibility Requirements
Defendants must:
- Be charged with a nonviolent felony or misdemeanor in the County of Onondaga.
- Be determined by the SCTC to be in need of treatment for a substance abuse problem.
- Have no prior convictions for violent felony offenses.

Peyton Manning spoils us into worrying about Broncos' win over Raiders for eighth straight
Yeah, I know: It's ridiculous. We ought to be celebrating the Broncos' 26-13 victory over the Raiders in Oakland last night. After all, it's Denver's eighth straight win, and it keeps alive the chance that the team could move up in playoffs seeding. But damn it if Peyton Manning's transformation of this squad hasn't spoiled us into wondering, even as we enjoy each successive W, why the Broncos aren't even better....Videos below.
As we pointed out yesterday in the introduction to our gallery of Raiders suck memes, the once fearsome Black and Silver has been tarnished so greatly that it's hard to get worked up about what was once among the NFL's most passionate rivalries.
Granted, QB Carson Palmer had some good moments in the Black Hole last night, including a first-half touchdown drive executed with the sort of precision the Raiders have seldom demonstrated in recent years. But he still makes the sort of mistakes that have prevented him from attaining elite status (one of them wound up in Champ Bailey's arms), and his supporting cast isn't nearly good enough to make up for his shortcomings. Even Darren McFadden, who's scorched the Broncos D in the past, looked like a mere mortal -- a tribute to Von Miller and company, sure, but also an indication that the injury bug that's held him down since hitting the league may have left him permanently diminished.Wikipedia Mitch Unrein.
Given these factors, the Broncos should have won the game in a rout, and during the first quarter, they appeared to be well on their way to doing so. The first drive almost ended in a three and out, but a blatant defensive holding penalty kept the offense on the field, allowing Manning to work his magic -- a spell that ended with a six yarder to Joel Dreessen for touchdown. But while the next drive seemed guaranteed to end in the same result, it sputtered instead, with Manning taking a huge sack -- one of a surprising three in the first half.
The result was a Matt Prater field goal try, and the ball sailed right through without the sort of slicing or fading that's made his kicking so nerve-racking of late. But while it's good to think he's gotten over his case of the yips, fans would rather see him booting extra points than three-pointers -- and over the course of the game, he only got to smash two of the former, as opposed to four of the latter. Even worse, one of his field goals came after Denver failed to convert a first and goal from the Raiders' one-yard line after Demaryius Thomas (who was dinged up during the game) drew an interference flag in the end zone.
As for the defense, Miller and Elvis Dumervil had a surprisingly difficult time reaching Palmer during the first part of the game. But by limiting McFadden, the Denver defenders were able to keep Oakland from doing much damage. Then, in the third quarter, Miller finally got to Carson, knocking the ball in the direction of Mitch Unrein, who's becoming a fan favorite -- he had a play or two on offense again this week, after catching a touchdown pass this past Sunday against Tampa Bay. And this time, the offense cashed in with a touchdown drive -- one two yards long.
Continue for more of our post about the Broncos' win over the Raiders, including two videos.

In both form and content, then, Genesis 1 reveals that its basic purposes are religious and theological, not scientific or historical.
Divine Hiddenness is the claim that our public evidence is strong enough to make Christian faith reasonable, but not strong enough to make it compelling.
We as Christians cannot claim that the world belongs to God and at the same time distrust the systematic study of it.
In the early 1700s, Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz famously disagreed about whether God periodically "corrected" the orbits of the planets. Why their disagreement matters for today's debates about God and evolution.
Because reliance upon experts cannot be eliminated, the central question for Christians today is not "should I believe scientific experts?" but "which scientific experts should I believe?"
I've always thought of the sense of smell as a more intimate sense than most other senses. For in smelling, the thing that we smell becomes almost a part of us.
Many of this week's science links happen at the wondrous intersection of mystery and discovery.
All creation is the doings of God's hands, no matter how he did it. When I look at a painting, I can connect somehow with the painter, and the same goes with the universe and God.
Pope Francis is reiterating a basic claim in Catholic Christianity: If one acknowledges that God creates by giving creatures not only their existence but also their natures, one can reconcile an evolutionary worldview with the Christian faith.
Science is an honest and noble pursuit, evidence of human intellect and curiosity, and to turn away from these is to deny a very important part of who God created us to be in the first place.
While reading about and studying the processes that gave rise to this astonishing world, please don't forget that it is beautiful. It is not merely mechanics, but poetry.
The former chair of the Harvard University physics department muses on how faith gives meaning to his scientific work.
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Here are some of the best responses from around the web to David's Barash's controversial editorial about God and Evolution in the New York Times.
If discussions of science and religion sometimes get bogged down in Genesis, perhaps that is because they have not made the preparatory journey through the rich material of the Wisdom books.
New BioLogos content editor Brad Kramer reviews Chapter 1 of "Surprised by Scripture" by NT Wright, and sees Wright's work as a signpost for the future of the science/faith debate.

With a name that translates to "a little of everything," it's no surprise that the seasonally changing menu of Cafe Mundial includes dishes such as steamed mussels with shallot cream sauce, duck confit, fresh pastas, and filet mignon with bordelaise sauce. In the kitchen, chefs add zesty wasabi vinaigrette to seared ahi-tuna appetizers and top personal pizzas with goat cheese, fresh basil, and monogrammed sun-dried tomatoes. The extensive wine list includes crisp California chardonnays, bold cabernets, and sparkling pours to pair with dinner entrees or new ties. Diners may opt to slide into a booth or jump onto stools at the full bar to watch sports or cheer on bartenders during martini preparation.
It didn't take long for Brian Kozak to discover his passion for food: at the age of three, after he first tried shrimp cocktail and crème brulee, he would spend hours leafing through cookbooks and family recipes in his parents' kitchen. His fascination with food led him to build an impressive culinary resume: after graduating from Le Cordon Bleu, Brian spent four years cooking for Bon Appetit, opened his own catering company, and learned how to fold a puff pastry according to army-bed making standards. Today, he demonstrates his culinary prowess as the resident Chef at Sage Restaurant and Lounge. Kozak's influences span the globe: try the Spanish saffron paella with chorizo and shrimp, or any of six 10-inch pizzas. The dining room also has global flair, from its Tuscan yellow walls to its terra cotta tile floors.
Silk Lounge mixes nature and culture with its sleek yet cozy ambience, spacious patio, carefully crafted libations, and nightly entertainment. Guests seeking solace may retreat to a private booth to puff on a fine cigar ($8+), and revelers seeking a pleasant campfire vibe without rubbing two guitars together until they burst into flames can enjoy company at the patio's fire pit. Meanwhile, more than 20 varieties of single-malt scotch rest on hand to warm bellies, including an Auchentoshan old enough to drink itself (premium drinks are $12). A range of unique Chinese and Japanese wines can greet the tongue ($9 per glass), and a cool beer ($5) crisply complements an appetizer of chicken wings or calamari ($12+).
With a name that salutes the community centers that filled Rio de Janeiro in the 19th century, Boteco beckons all walks of life to eat and drink at its contemporary wooden bartop and sleek, square tables. Historically, these centers incorporated the region's diverse array of northern European, Mediterranean, and Arabian cuisines, and Boteco continues this tradition.
In addition to crisping pizzas made from locally sourced ingredients, the chefs simmer pots of Portuguese stew with cod and potatoes, and arrange sizzling sirloin next to rice, black beans, Brazilian pico de gallo, and caramelized plantains. The chefs also use tiny kitchen tools to construct small bites of tapas and appetizers, all while bartenders whet whistles and other woodwind instruments with 50 domestic and imported craft beers alongside wines and mixed drinks.
The Granada LA is a party school. Part dance studio, part nightclub, it's a place where students can learn the steps of West Coast swing and merengue one night and put them into practice while enjoying bottle service and eats from the on-site restaurant the next. If they do venture out onto the dance floor of the 1930's Spanish Revival-style nightclub, they'll be treated to live music that leans heavily toward salsa. The nightclub, like whatever village The Village People were from, attracts a variety of people: casual dancers looking for zesty nightlife, and also students of the attached dance studio.
At Scarlet Tea Room and Fine Dining, the tea services represent both a treasured English tradition and a modern form of celebration. Here, groups gather beneath a chandelier flecked with vibrant red accents to indulge in five-course meals. Their loose-leaf steeped beverages—which range from a sweet and lemony French verveine to a smoky Chinese lapsang souchong—complement a selection of bite-size desserts and light sandwiches stuffed with savory fillings such as prosciutto, aged white cheddar, and sun-dried-tomato spread. The afternoon tea service also includes housemade scones and berries romanoff, a fruity dessert served in a dark-chocolate cup.
On Friday and Saturday evenings, the award-winning kitchen staff prepares small plates of shareable dinner fare such as grilled skirt steak with marinated mushrooms, sautéed gnocchi with walnut-arugula pesto, and Fijian kingfish crudo with grapefruit and green papaya. To celebrate special occasions, such as Valentine's Day or Father's Day, diners can order specialty cakes for pickup or visit the dining room for a romantic concert or saucy burlesque performance by Queen Elizabeth.

David Lawrence Hlubek [pronounced LOO'-bek][needs IPA] was born on August 28, 1951. He is the lead guitarist and founding member of the Southern Rock band Molly Hatchet.
Dave was born a "Bacon boy" in Jacksonville, Florida.[1] At the age of 5 or 6, Dave and his family moved to the Naval base in Oahu, Hawaii where he attended Waikiki Elementary School. From there, Hlubek's father was transferred and the family moved to Sunnyvale, California, then to Mountain View, and finally settling in San Jose. There he attended the same Junior High School as Wayne Newton. It was the South Bay that Dave called home during the next few years, before moving back to Jacksonville, Florida around 1965. There he attended and graduated from Forrest High School along with other legends of Southern Rock.
Hlubek, along with Steve Holland, founded the band Molly Hatchet.[2] Vocalist Danny Joe Brown joined in 1974, Duane Roland, Banner Thomas, and Bruce Crump in 1975. Hlubek was the original vocalist when they started, as well as becoming the band's most prolific songwriter—writing or co-writing the majority of the group's songs, including their most famous, "Flirtin' with Disaster". When at last they got their recording contract with Epic Records they got some help and advice from Lynyrd Skynyrd vocalist Ronnie Van Zant, who was originally supposed to produce their first album, but was unable to, because of his demise in the tragic plane crash in '77. While most people tagged Molly Hatchet as "Southern Rock," Hlubek admits it was only because of the location. He considered Molly Hatchet, along with Blackfoot, to actually be metal bands from the South. In fact, he has also said that, although hard to talk about, it was the demise of Lynyrd Skynyrd—who were on top of the world at that time—that opened the door for Molly Hatchet.
In 1986, Hlubek left the band, to be replaced by lead guitarist Bobby Ingram.[2] In 1986 Hlubek—by his own admission being "unbearable," due to rock star excess and substance abuse—left the band. "I had a horrendous, horrendous cocaine problem".[3] Dave was replaced by lead guitarist Bobby Ingram. That same year, Dave found himself at rock bottom and unemployed. His close friend Mazz moved Hlubek out of Jacksonville to Port St. Lucie Florida and offered him moral support and many years of employment. Acting as Daves personal Manager, Mazz negotiated recording sessions, gigs, tape programs and created bands featuring Dave including Hlubek & Friends, Southern Jam Band and the Southern Rock Legends, which included former members of Lynyrd Skynyrd and Blackfoot. With his life back together, Dave also worked with other bands including the Dixie Allstars, renamed Southern Rock Allstars which he co-founded with Blackfoot drummer Jakson Spires. Dave also had a short stint with Skinny Molly with former Lynyrd Skynyrd guitarist Mike Estes and Pontus J. Back bass. In January 2005, Ingram invited Hlubek to rejoin Molly Hatchet where he remains today and in doing so became the only current member who was a part of the original band. Guitarist for Soul Window, Dony J Tusso was in attendance at "The Pineapple Festival" in Jensen Beach, FLA. This was one of the first live shows that Dave played with Hatchet since rejoining. Hlubek is to this date a solid, rotund, performing and recording guitarist in Molly Hatchet on their world tours and the only remaining original member of the band.
In addition to writing the early hits Molly Hatchet is known for, such as "Flirtin' with Disaster", "Gator Country", Whiskey Man" and "Fall of the Peacemakers" among others, Dave Hlubek is credited with major motion picture sound tracks, including the feature films such as Monster starring Charlize Theron, The Dukes of Hazzard, Suspect Zero and Delta Farce. His music also appears on television commercials, on Hulk Hogan's Celebrity Wrestling TV show, and on the soundtracks of the video games Rock Band, NASCAR 98 and others. As recent as January 2011, Flirtin With Disaster was the opening music on the pilot Super Natural.
According to TC PALM[4] On September 30, 2010,just like the opening lyrics of the Molly Hatchet hit, "Flirtin' With Disaster," Dave Hlubek was "traveling down the road" with his "pedal to the floor."Hlubek was booked into the St. Lucie County Jail shortly after 7 a.m. for driving under the influence. His blood-alcohol content results were .13 and .14, both above the state's legal limit of .08. Hlubek, who hit the charts 30 years ago with the Molly Hatchet album, "Taking No Prisoners," posted bail and was released. The evidence was dropped according to WPTV:[5] In an order filed May 9, County Judge Philip J. Yacucci ruled the deputy didn't have sufficient cause to pull over the co-author of the song "Whiskey Man" and threw out all the evidence obtained in the traffic stop, including blood-alcohol content results of 0.13 and 0.14, both above the state's legal limit of 0.08.
Dave Hlubek has seven gold and platinum selling album awards with sales totaling approximately 24 million in album sales.
A little known fact is that Dean Markley Magnum guitar strings featured Dave Hlubek's face, in cameo, on the packaging for years and can still be found to this day.

I was thinking of surprising my husband with a garage organization system, since our kids toys have taken over his tools/workbench area. Any suggestions on who to contact for this in the NYC suburbs? Home Depot? TIA. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I'm sure taht you can find such organizers in any of the Big Box stores but Sears also has garage organizers which are quite nice. In line with that, I bought some shock absorbing floor mats at HD which are great for reducing leg fatigue. It comes on a roll and runs abut $4/ foot, IIRC. |

Street construction starts tomorrow on Valley Metro's $1.3 billion light-rail system. Supporters of light rail claim that the project will help ease congestion on the Valley's roads, citing the alleged success of light rail in other cities.
Proponents of light rail assert that similar systems have benefited cities such as Portland and San Diego. But careful analysis indicates that light rail systems have failed to yield even marginal returns on those cities' investments.
Despite supporters' high hopes and light rail's high cost, light rail systems have rarely removed more than one car out of 1,000 from area roads, doing little to ease area traffic congestion.
Although it bears a futuristic name, light rail is based on 19th-century systems that don't reflect the realities of modern life in Phoenix. And light rail comes with a heavy price tag: it'll take $1.50 to move one passenger just one mile, making light rail far more expensive than many other forms of transportation, as a Goldwater Institute study shows.
Officials would do well to increase the availability of other public transportation options, including buses, which are more flexible and cost-effective approaches to easing gridlock on the roads.

NEW YORK – HUD Regional Director Sean M. Moss was joined by Bronx Borough President Adolfo Carrion, Jr. and New York City Housing Preservation and Development Commissioner Shaun Donovan to announce $25 million in Federal funding to build three new senior developments in the Bronx to house the very low-income elderly. Of the eight new senior developments to be built in New York State funded through HUD's Section 202 program this year, five are in New York City, with three in the Bronx. The three new Bronx developments will produce a total of 173 new apartments for elderly persons. Nonprofits in Brooklyn and Staten Island were also awarded Section 202 funding. The announcement was made at Belmont Blvd. II Apartments, a recently completed senior development in the Belmont section of the Bronx. "Our senior citizens have given us so much of themselves, and have contributed mightily to make America what it is today," said Sean M. Moss, HUD Regional Director for New York and New Jersey. "They should never have to worry about being able to afford a decent place to live, and, as such, the grants we are announcing today will go a long way toward achieving that goal." The grants announced today are being awarded to:
Other attendees included Joe Cicciu, President of the Belmont Blvd. HDFC; William E. Rapfogel, CEO of the Metropolitan New York Coordinating Council; Joanne Hoffman, Director of Housing, UJA - Federation; and, Richard Izquierdo, Executive Director of the South Bronx Community Corporation.
"We all have elderly relatives and you would agree with me that they should live their golden years in a dignified, safe environment," said Bronx Borough President Adolfo Carrion, Jr.. "I am dedicated to everything facilitating and funding the development of housing for our borough's neediest seniors. I look forward to accompanying my elderly neighbors and friends in The Bronx every step of their journey to realizing a beautiful place to live. I thank HUD for recognizing our need and congratulate the sponsors of today's three announced projects."
HPD Commissioner Donovan said: "Today we celebrate three new housing developments for seniors being built in different corners of the Bronx. Two of the three are being built on land formerly owned by the City. HPD is delighted to be able to work with HUD and our community partners to put this land to great use, providing safe, secure and affordable housing for our seniors. Protecting and expanding Section 202 housing is a key part of Mayor Bloomberg's newly expanded New Housing Marketplace Plan to invest $7.5 billion over ten years to build and preserve 165,000 units of affordable housing."
Last month, Housing and Urban Development Secretary Alphonso Jackson in Washington, D.C. announced that more than $710 million in housing assistance grants was awarded to help the nation's very low-income elderly and people with disabilities.
Section 202 Grants (funding to assist very low-income elderly)
In addition to funding the construction and rehabilitation of projects to create apartments, HUD grants will subsidize rents for five years so that residents will pay only 30 percent of their adjusted incomes as rent.
To be eligible for the assistance a household must be classified as "very low- income," which means an income less than 50 percent of the area median. Nationally, based on 50 percent of the national median family income with an applicable adjustment for household size, a one-person household would need to have an income equal to or less than $22,000 a year.
HUD provides two forms of Section 202 funds to non-profit groups:

Who's At Risk?
About 150 million people worldwide have asthma. In the United States, it affects more than 20 million people, including 9 million children.
Certain people are at a greater risk for developing the disease:
- Those who live in the inner city. Overall, 8.8 percent of blacks have asthma, compared with about 7 percent of whites. But when they live in the inner city, African-Americans are twice as likely as whites to die from the disease and three times more likely to be hospitalized by it. Meanwhile, the nation's highest rate of asthma is among children of Puerto Rican descent living in New York City.
- Having a parent with asthma gives you a one in four chance of developing the disorder. If both your parents are affected, the odds are one in two that you'll also be asthmatic. You also can inherit atopy, a tendency to develop the allergies that underlie many cases of asthma in children. But this doesn't mean that you will be allergic to the same things as your parents. For example, if your mother has hay fever, you might be allergic to animal dander.
- Living with a smoker boosts your odds of being asthmatic. Between 20 and 25 percent of all cases of childhood asthma are linked to at least one parent who smokes. A child whose mother smokes at least a half-pack a day, is twice as likely to develop asthma as a child of a nonsmoker. Being born premature may result in lung damage that makes you more susceptible to developing asthma.
- Having allergies such as hay fever, food allergies or eczema at a very young age — typically before age 3 — is another risk factor. The same is true for children who have a severe viral infection during infancy such as bronchiolitis, an inflammation of the smallest airways that typically occurs in children younger than age 2.
Meanwhile, asthma causes approximately 4,200 deaths and 500,000 hospitalizations each year.
Factors that put you at risk of dying from asthma include living in the inner city; being hospitalized for emergency asthma treatment at least twice in the past year; having large, daily variations in peak-flow measurements prior to an attack; and having a history of psychiatric disease, depression, alcohol abuse, recent unemployment or extreme denial or anxiety following an attack.

Corn whiskey
This article needs additional citations for verification. (July 2012) |
Corn whiskey (sometimes Corn Liquor or "White Lightning") is an American liquor made from a mash made of at least 80 percent corn.[1] Distinct from the typical American moonshine, corn whiskey uses a traditional mash process[2] and is subject to the tax and identity laws for alcohol under CFR 27.[3] Several commercial distillers such as Heaven Hill and Buffalo Trace have started to produce corn whiskeys for retail sale. The whiskey is typically distilled at a high proof (up to 160 proof). The unaged corn whiskey is then diluted with water to at most 62.5 percent alcohol by volume, but usually 40 percent alcohol by volume, and bottled for retail.[4]
The whiskey can be aged in used or uncharred oak barrels,[5][6] though this practice strays from traditional moonshining. Aging usually is brief, six months or less, during which time the whiskey absorbs color and flavor from the barrel while the off-flavors and fusel alcohols are reduced. A variant called Straight Corn Whiskey is also produced, in which the whiskey is stored in used or uncharred new oak containers for 2 years or more. Whiskeys produced in this manner and aged for at least 4 years can be designated bottled in bond if they meet further requirements.

@feruze-- Are you using sun protection cream? You need to use face creams and body lotions with sun protection (minimum SPF 30) year around. When you go to the beach, don't go outside between 11am and 3pm. This is when the sun's rays are most powerful and don't sit in the sun. It's possible to tan in the shade as well. If you go in the water, you need to re-apply sun protection cream afterward.
Also, I suggest using aloe vera gel and vitamin C cream as dry skin remedies. Aloe vera is very hydrating and healing for dry, sun-burned skin. Vitamin C helps fade dark spots and will help with your hyper-pigmentation.
