Crystal Palace setback as Aitor Karanka looks set for Middlesbrough
Crystal Palace managerial target Aitor Karanka today looked set to join Middlesbrough as the Championship club prepared to appoint Jose Mourinho's former assistant.
Palace had looked at Karanka, who worked with Mourinho at Real Madrid, but Standard Sport understands that he is likely to move to the north-east today.
Should Karanka join Boro, it would leave Palace still searching for a manager 20 days after Ian Holloway left Selhurst Park.
Tony Pulis was the early front-runner for the post but Palace failed to convince him to take the position following his departure from Stoke at the end of last season.
Palace had hoped to bring in Holloway's successor during the two-week break for international football. Since Holloway left, Keith Millen has been in temporary charge but the Eagles have collected only four points from their opening 11 matches and are already six points adrift of safety.
Iain Moody, who left Cardiff earlier this season, has joined the club as sporting director and will have a role in the recruitment of the new manager.
Palace might now turn
to former Manchester United coach Rene Meulensteen as they seek to have a
permanent leader ahead of their next league fixture at Hull on November 23.

Dual Channel Memory Roundup - Part 2 - Overclocking Results Continued
It's time for Part 2 of our Dual Channel Memory roundup series where this time we check out new modules from Kingmax, Corsair, Geil, OCZ, Transcend and Crucial - 8 different types of modules all up over a massive 33 pages!Overclocking Results Continued
- Corsair PC4000
Hitting speeds of 250MHz is already an accomplishment and a lot of people are going to be very happy with these speeds. Having a play around with the voltages we were able to achieve a max overclock of 258MHz overclock. The timings on the Corsair PC4000 are already quite relaxed so we didn't think there would be too much head room for the Corsair PC4000 to overclock.
Corsair didn't do too bad a job in the overclocking department it was just a bit disappointing that we were unable to get an overclock out of the PC3500 memory.
- Crucial PC3200
Crucial being made of higher quality chips like the Kingmax, we knew it would love the extra voltage.
Being able to achieve a maximum stable overclock 234MHz @ 3.2 Volt is excellent for memory that is only rated at PC3200 and CAS 3. While it is one of the lower overclocks out of all the memory, we will see if it can still keep up with the rest.
- Transcend PC3200
Thanks to the Samsung chips we were hoping to get a slightly better then average overclock and we were able to get all the way to 248MHz. While the memory is only 2MHz slower then the Kingmax and up to 12MHz with the fastest memory module, we will see how it goes when comparing to the others as the Transcend modules seemed to lag behind in all other tests when running at DDR400 speeds.
OCZ have come quite far in the past 12 months and there is no doubt in our mind that since the release of the Intel Canterwood and Springdale chipsets, OCZ has had a real chance to shine. Talking to OCZ they let us know that we should be right to hit up to 3.2V without causing any troubles. We don't recommend using this high on a 24/7 basis but if you're simply doing it for testing, make sure you have some extra cooling on the memory.
Moving up to 3.2V we were able to achieve a maximum overclock of 260MHz and we are pondering that the processor may be our limitation. We have all intentions of looking into these modules further when we have a processor capable of a FSB up to and over 280MHz. We are sure there is still a bit of headroom on the modules.

Description: Political intrigue and romantic gamesmanship send an already torrid Caribbean community to the boiling point in this drama. Maxwell Fleury (James Mason) and David Boyeur (Harry Belafonte) are two men running for political office in a British-controlled island in the West Indies. Maxwell is the son of a wealthy and socially prominent white family, while David is a black labor leader with a groundswell of popular support but little money. A scandal erupts in the press alleging that Maxwell is of mixed racial ancestry, but Maxwell is actually pleased about the news, thinking that it may endear him to black voters. Maxwell is not pleased, however, when he hears that his wife Sylvia (Patricia Owens) has been having an affair with the urbane but rootless Carson (Michael Rennie), taking the matter seriously enough to murder Carson himself. Maxwell's younger sister Jocelyn (Joan Collins) is also in hot water, romantically speaking; she has set her sights on Eun Templeton (Stephen Boyd), the son of the Island's governor, and she hopes to snare him into marriage by allowing him to get her pregnant. Elsewhere on the island, David is secretly having an affair with a white woman, Mavis Norman (Joan Fontaine), while David's former girlfriend, Margot Seaton (Dorothy Dandridge), has become involved with a white man, Denis Archer (John Justin). Based on the novel by Alex Waugh, Island in the Sun also features songs from Harry Belafonte, including Lead Man Holler and the title tune.~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

November 16, 2014 - love the little bottle, would love it more if it came in red :-) works well, no bad taste even after it sat overnight in the car in the heat (Live in Florida). Would also love it in a larger size, or with insulation outside. Love the site also.
October 15, 2014 - Very nice. Will use when I work in classroom.
January 7, 2014 - Love this water bottle and all stuff from this website,love to help when i can for a great cause!!
September 6, 2013 - These are really cute and very well made. Love the artwork on them.
September 17, 2012 - My water bottles sweat and do not keep water cold. The ice melts quickly. The drinking top is hard to use as the covers do not want to stay shut on the sippy part. The screw on top also does not help to keep the water cold. I'll keep them because it's for a good cause but will not buy them again.

4 Things to Consider When Buying Chandelier Earrings
You're wearing your favorite 1960s-inspired dress and a pair of cute wedge sandals, but something is missing. Add just the right amount of color and shine with a shimmery new pair of chandelier earrings. Chandelier earrings get their name from their design, which mimics elaborate chandelier light fixtures. They may have tiers of sparkling, swinging gemstones or they may have layers of hammered gold medallions. Each chandelier earring style is unique and offers a bold splash of style. They go great with dresses but can also be worn with jeans and suits. To choose the perfect pair of chandelier earrings, consider these important features.
Best Chandeliers for Your Home
Whether you like antique or contemporary styles, chandeliers can dress up many different rooms. It's easy to update your bedroom with a striking pendant chandelier, or add a crystal chandelier to the dining room for extra sparkle. You may have a few questions about choosing chandelier lighting that works with your style, however. Read on for tips on finding the best chandeliers for your home.
Best Light Fixtures for Making a Statement
Light fixtures can produce big design statements in a room. If something feels incomplete, even after you've decorated, chances are your lighting situation is to blame. Replacing a standard frosted glass pendant light or a boring brass chandelier with something unique and tailored for your style will pull together all the elements of a room and highlight the architecture of a home.
FAQs about Chandeliers and Pendants
Chandeliers and pendants have always been popular lighting options because they can highlight spaces and bring some pizzazz and sparkle to a room. The popularity of chandeliers and pendants has made Overstock.com's wide selection even wider and has probably left you with several questions about how to choose, hang and care for the right chandeliers and pendants. Read on to find the answers to these frequently asked questions.
Top 5 Chandelier Styles
Whether you are building your dream house or just sprucing up your current home, a chandelier is a great way to add ambiance and decoration to a room. Chandeliers and pendants aren't just for formal dining rooms. The right chandelier can look great in any room. Although chandeliers come in a wide variety of styles, let's start with the top five.
How to Select Kitchen Lighting
If your kitchen looks tired, why not update it with brand-new kitchen lighting? New kitchen pendant lights or a unique chandelier could be just what your space needs for a fresh makeover. In fact, the right kitchen light fixtures add that extra touch that makes a kitchen shine. Whether you want to install recessed kitchen lighting in your home or just want to update a few existing light fixtures, the following tips can help you find lighting that will last for years and keep your kitchen looking great. Read on to learn about selecting kitchen lighting for your home.
How to Clean a Chandelier
Chandeliers can be the stunning focal point of your room, but these dramatic light fixtures are also great at collecting dust and cobwebs. You can keep your chandelier sparkling by dusting it regularly and cleaning it thoroughly twice a year. To learn how to clean your chandelier using both the wet and dry methods, keep reading.
Chandelier Trends
Looking for a way to simultaneously brighten and dress up your home? Chandeliers are the perfect solution. Chandeliers are available with many arms, multiple tiers, and shades as well as with more simple designs and streamlined structures. Look for a chandelier light with a large presence for a big room and one with a smaller profile to use in a diminutive room; the size of your chandelier doesn't matter, only its size in comparison to the rest of your home decor.
Best Reasons to Buy Gold Earrings
Gold jewelry has been coveted since the precious metal was first discovered. Ancient cultures all around the world have incorporated gold into their fashion trends, religious ceremonies and burial supplies. Gold jewelry has remained popular into modern times for many reasons, and gold earrings are one of the best ways to wear the shimmery substance. Gold earrings come in many different styles, from gold hoops and dangling chandelier earrings to pretty studs and elegant teardrop earrings. You can wear yellow gold earrings with your favorite black dress or choose white gold earrings for a casual workday. If you still need to be convinced, check out our reasons for buying gold earrings and then test some gold jewelry for yourself.
Best Youthful Pendant Necklaces
Young people know how to accessorize an outfit. Whether you are young yourself or just young at heart, hip pendant necklaces will quickly update a basic pair of jeans or workday ensemble. Hang one of these pendants on a long necklace chain and you'll have a piece of jewelry that will stylishly take you through the day and into the evening. Youthful pendant necklaces may be made of sterling silver, gold or platinum. Necklace pendants are frequently embellished with diamonds and gemstones, and youthful pendant jewelry is no exception. Add some of these necklace pendants to your necklace collection and you'll always have stylish jewelry to wear.
Top 5 Ways to Wear Citrine Chandelier Earrings
If you love to dress in dark, neutral colors year-round, then add some citrine chandelier earrings to your wardrobe. Citrine earrings will add bright, glowing light to any simple outfit without diluting the edginess you desire in your look. Like the sparkling yellow eyes of a beautiful owl in the night, citrine jewelry accents an outfit with rich yellow hues. Keep several pairs of lovely chandelier earrings handy, and it will be easy to accessorize jeans, dresses and skirts with this extravagant gemstone jewelry.
How to Choose a Chandelier
Chandeliers are more than just a way to illuminate a room. They add style and become part of the home decor. Like any decorative piece, the right chandelier can make a big difference in the look and feel of a room. A large or ornate chandelier will overwhelm a small living space, and a small, simple one will not look right in a formal dining room. Here's how to choose the best lighting for your home.
Tips on Storing Pendants
A collection of pendants is at the heart of most women's jewelry collections. A diamond-covered kitten pendant, a heart-shaped gold locket and a birthstone solitaire necklace shouldn't be strewn across your dresser with your sterling silver rings and beaded earrings. Storing your pendants properly is the best way to make sure that you'll wear them, getting the most out of your jewelry investment. Use these jewelry storage tips to keep your pendants and necklaces organized.
FAQs about Sterling Silver
You probably come across sterling silver in your everyday life more often than you think. Sterling silver jewelry is especially popular, and the metal is made into a wide variety of rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, watches, charms, and pendants. It's also used to produce and embellish serving dishes, sculptures, frames, and many other household items. The use of sterling silver was first popularized in the 1800s, and today, sterling silver gifts and jewelry are widely available, as these items are often preferred as a less expensive alternative to gold and other precious metals.
Buying Chandelier Lighting for Your Dining Room
Chandeliers are the ultimate statement piece in a house. From giant crystal chandeliers that hang from high ceilings to simple styles that reside over a family dining table, lighting fixtures have the ability to make a room glow. A chandelier that is not right for your space can seem weighed down and heavy. The wrong chandelier can also lack drama that helps make a room fabulous. If your chandelier is looking old and outdated, it might be time to update with a new style.
Best Places to Hang Mini Chandeliers
A glistening chandelier can add that little extra something to your home decor, but you don't need to go big to make a huge style statement. Mini chandeliers, sometimes called chandelettes, work well in a variety of settings and are a popular alternative to large, traditional chandeliers. Think of a mini chandelier as piece of jewelry for your home -- a little can go a long way. If you're not sure where you would use one, try hanging a mini chandelier in one of these places.
Why You Need Chandelier Earrings
If you adore fancy decor, then you will love chandelier earrings. When you enter a fancy ballroom, the first thing you see is the stunning chandelier glistening above your head. Chandelier earrings have the same effect on a smaller scale. Your eyes will automatically be drawn to the sparkling, dancing gems and shiny metal. If you're looking to expand your jewelry collection, consider earrings that look like miniature chandeliers. Many styles are available to bring color and shine to your earring assortment.
How to Wear Gold Pendants

(By Balaseshan) AVEO Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: AVEO) and Astellas Pharma Inc. say the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted of the New Drug Application (NDA) filing for tivozanib to treat advanced renal cell carcinoma.
Tivozanib is an investigational medicine and is not currently approved in any country. According to the timelines established by the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA), the review of the NDA is expected to be complete by July 28, 2013.
The FDA's acceptance of the NDA triggers a $15 million milestone payment to AVEO under its development and commercialization agreement with Astellas.
[Related -AVEO: FDA Panel Votes Against Recommending Approval For Kidney Cancer Treatment]
The proposed brand name for tivozanib is Tivopath, which is a trademark of AVEO Pharma. This name has received conditional acceptance from the FDA and the European Medicines Agency (EMA), but final approval by the FDA and EMA is pending. Tivozanib is an investigational compound. Its safety and efficacy have not yet been fully established.
Advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC), or kidney cancer, is the ninth most commonly diagnosed cancer in men and women in the U.S. Worldwide it is estimated that more than 250,000 people are diagnosed and more than 100,000 people die from the disease each year. RCC accounts for more than 90% of all kidney cancers.
The NDA includes results of the global Phase 3 TIVO-1 (TIvozanib Versus SOrafenib in 1st line Advanced RCC) trial, a randomized superiority-designed pivotal trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of tivozanib compared to sorafenib, an approved targeted agent, in 517 patients with advanced RCC, as well as data from 16 additional AVEO-sponsored studies involving over 1,000 subjects who received tivozanib.
[Related -Why Aveo's Tivozanib Should Win FDA Approval]
Results of TIVO-1 were presented at the 2012 Annual Meeting of the American Society for Clinical Oncology (ASCO). Tivozanib is also under evaluation across a broad range of solid tumors, including metastatic colorectal cancer and metastatic breast cancer.
AVEO closed Tuesday's regular session up 0.14% at $7.11. The stock has been trading between $5.80 and $17.65 for the past 52 weeks.

Laboratory target reflectance measurements for coherent laser radar applications
Applied Optics, Vol. 23, Issue 15, pp. 2559-2564 (1984)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (661 KB)
Signature characteristics of several materials under CO2 laser illumination are measured using a laboratory reflectometer. The reflectometer is a monostatic direct-detection system. Measured quantities include sample correlation, statistical signal distribution and its mean and standard deviations, and reflectivity of diffuse materials. Measured density distribution and number of speckle cells are compared with theoretical predictions. The measurements show that the flame-sprayed aluminum is well suited as a high-reflectivity diffuse standard, while sandpapers in general exhibit specular characteristics at near-normal incidence to the sample surface.

Here another distorted picture with the Employer provided health care insurance.
a). Companies are in business to produce product as services - they are not in HC business. Employee time spent in the company is valuable - where CEO's time is most costly to the company. Time which he / she spend reviewing HC policies, is time he spend NOT planning the companies financial interest.
Also, through their co-pay to the HC policy, it divert their financial resources from developing in products on on R&D and quality control
b) Today there are millions of very talented employees whom are forced to stay in their job, because they are afraid of loosing their present generous HC coverage for their family. Most often they pay for it with lost opportunity to find a job with better pay and career advancement.
c) Having a universal HC with single payer, all these problems are eliminated.
Employers spend more time to develop better products, cheaper and more competitive. at the same time, employees are not warried of losing HC coverage to t heir loved one when they get laid off, or move elsewhere.
Having lived in US for few decades, It gave me a quite perspective about what is right and what is wrong with some of policies in US, compared to other industrialized nations.
For the good of me, I can not understand, nor fathom, why so many low wage, and salaried workers, view their government as "the enemy", "the dictator", and the one who sole mission is to "tell them what to eat and what to do". It is the gun mentality in US which still keeps US stuck in the days of the Wild West and cowboys.
I mean!, where else in any industrialized countries, with robust democracy and powerful legal system as in US, do you see people walk the streets with colt .45 hanging on the sides. These gun touting Americans look like a caricatures in any comic book.
After all, these idiots are the most vulnerable citizens in the country. Being ignorant, most of these Joe Six-packs, are the most susceptible to predatory practices from the mortgage, credits card, and HC insurance companies. YET, these idiots are the first in line to defend these companies - all under the mantra, "freedom", "Liberty", "choice", and all the belihood "individual responsibility".
They have no clue, nor the inclination to ask the basic question to which we all ask - "How this affects mine and my family's lives", the Affordable Health care Law, was enacted to them avoid losing everything they had worked for (their homes, & saving accounts), and be thrown in the street, in case on only one catastrophic illness.
The sad part is. In addition to the damage to which they cause for themselves, and their loved ones - the worse part is when they go out and convince others in their ill infomed ideology.
You got that absolutely right! The dumbing down of America is complete. These delusional "rich-wannabees" are their own worst enemies. Pathetic..
Why on earth should it be O.K for the states to force their inhabitants to buy health insurance if the federal government is forbidden to? One sees echoes of the debate over compulsory fluoridation of water supplies where payment for the fluoride additive would be forcibly extracted from citizens, many of whom believed it was not benign and who did not want to be so medicated. We are all unfortunately, at the mercy of bureaucrats certain that they know what is best for us. "You will all be better off with compulsorily medical insurance!" Perhaps, perhaps. Some of us would simply like to be able to tell them all to go and get F....d.
"Why on earth should it be O.K for the states to force their inhabitants to buy health insurance if the federal government is forbidden to?"
Ever heard of the Constitution?
This case may illustrate one issue I have with American democracy (but which does not seem to bother Americans all that much): Their constitution is so hard to change that Americans are in effect living by the dictate of long gone generations. That does not fit well with the idea that the earth belongs to the living. Isn't it a little problematic that individuals, however admirable, that lived about 200 years ago, are still afforded the final say in what is best for 21st century Americans? I think the United States could use a new Constitutional Convention.
The value of Constitutions is that they aere not easily changed. Thats becu\ause they dont reflect whims, tastes, and self-delusions that administrative adjustments satify. Constitutions ( or at least ours) prescribe rules derived rom general principle that have the ring of self-evience. An example is the limitation on cenyral, especially Federal, government power. The wisdom here is that all governments become corrupt and abuse their power. Providing competiton among authorities and ensuring that institutional self -interest interfers with the accretion of power is the value of this.
A Constituional Convention might abolish the Senate as not representative of individuals ( only States themselves) but a coompanion reform might be removing the power of the Legislature to regulate interstate commerce unless all exercise over indivdual persons ( not organizations) is forbidden.
Not everyone would like this combination.

I wonder if President Obama how looks back on his humiliating castisement of Justice Roberts during one of his state of the union speeches and thinks "I should not of done that"?
The comments of Lexington are here as always interesting. But presuppositions are at work which weaken his reasoning.
Whether or not an achievement of an American President is "crowning" or not is not imprtant in the issue of its Constitutionality: Lexington seems to think that legitimacy is uniquely determined by a minimum number or supporting votes and approvals by some of the politicians represnting citizens.
Lexington is mistaken.
I am not an expert on healthcare. But, I have a few small comments.
1) I have relatives that live in Canada that live opposite Buffalo, New York (Niagara Falls). They tend to drive into the United States to get much of their healthcare. In Canada it would be "free", so why come here?
(2) How can any Legislative Body pass a Bill that is 2700+ pages and neither have read it or understand it?
(3) In the long term, What would be the effect of the expansion of the Commerce Clause on the power of the States and the Federal Government (the law of unintended Consequences scare me to be honest). What would Congress through the Commerce Clause grab next?
This is a no-brainer. If you are complaining about having to pay for the sick now, I wonder if you would raise any alarm when the time comes for your turn to need medical treatment. And as to the assertion that the mandate will effectively annihilate your individual liberty, that is based on fallacious underpinnings. Making you contribute towards your healthcare needs is no different from making you pay taxes.

These States, had joined the lawsuit against new HC law.
Virginia, Florida, South Carolina, Nebraska, Texas, Utah, Louisiana, Alabama, Michigan , Colorado, Pennsylvania, Washington, Idaho, South Dakota, North Dakota, Arizona, Georgia, Alaska, Nevada, Indiana, Mississippi, Wisconsin, Oklahoma, Wyoming, Ohio, Kansas, Maine
Looks like it wasn't the states that actually filed the suits. Their names may be on it, but it has "corporate master monopoly" written all over it.
Yet the insurance companies benefit from mandatory health insurance.
So, what is your point, Levy?
Kamwick seem s to believe that these monopolistic insurance companies would act against their self-interest. That is difficult to swallow.
The point is. Despite the bellicose of "free market", "competition", and "choices". In reality, Americans are subjected to, and live in a HC system which offers the exact opposite to these assertions.
The fact is, there is nothing wrong with HC delivery & technology in US. It is rather, due to the cost of administration of the HC syatem. It is the massive & insidious stranglehold which the HC insurance companies have on US citizens.
They take $0.40 to $0.45 cent of every dollar paid by their insured, and spend it on areas (fat salaries, excessive bonuses, and dividend to shareholders who don't need them to live, etc.), which have nothing to do with HC delivery.
What needed in US to lower the massive overrun of cost of HC delivery here, is cut the fat, lower the cost of administration - not deny hard working American the type of services, which the rest of the civilized world have recognized a long time ago, as moral obligation - not just Dollars & cents.
You keep making up factoids to support your beliefs, Levy. First it was the insurance companies who were promoting the lawsuit against ObamaCare. Now you abandon that fiction and create some absurd numbers - 40-45% overhead and profits.
Why not stick to reality?
I didn't say "Insurance companies were promoting the lawsuit". where did you get the idea?. All I posted was,
In 26 states, one Insurance company controls 50% or more of the market share. 11 of those states have joined the lawsuit to repeal the ACA law.
So. please read the posts carefully, then comments on them.
As for the 40-45% overhead.
I am all for free market - as long as is done with better services, at lower cost. Just compare the increase in premiums in Medicare, to that of the private insurance market. The rise in Medicare cost is due to older people have more chronic deceases, and require expensive treatment.
With all its fault, as single payer, Medicare system spends only 3-4% of its budget on HC administration. The rest goes to pay to HC providers - notwithstanding fraud in the sytem. Insurance companies spend only 55-60%. That translates to about $700B a year, of YOURS, HIS, HER AND MY PREMIUMS, to which these companies are keeping.
Imaging $500B of that would be paid to your Primary doctor, your hospital. It would translate to better HC delivery and lower your premium.
Every rational citizen will tell you that, saving human life, and provision of basic HC to every citizen comes ahead of HC insurance profit, who's role is merely manage payments to the providers. A role which any NGO / Non-profit company would do much cheaper, and no less efficient than what we have today.
HC system in US is broken and needed to be fixed - that is what Obama did.
You are correct. I mixed your comments up with somebody who was talking about the legal issues. Your post about the domination of insurance offerings in 26 states had absolutely no relevance to the legal issues whatsoever.
Restating the FALSEHOOD that insurance companies only spend 55-60% of their premiums on medical payments does not make it any truer, Levy. Those are numbers that you made up, or read from somebody who made them up. Posting that kind of BS only makes your arguments look silly to every rational person.
Here is a discussion of health care insurance costs that provide more realistic numbers. Note that even the strongest critics come up with overhead costs far below your numbers.
Instead of deriving your sources from a newspaper in state of FL (with political agenda), I would suggest you to search OECD, McKenzie's own studies, and Prof. Uwe Reinhard from Princeton University had made an extensive (and unbiased) research on this topic.
I did not derive my numbers out of the sleeves - rather after gleaning from credible sources.
Credible sources that you do not provide a link for. The newspaper provides detailed sources for their information, including Huffington and Barbara Boxer.
I am familiar with Reinhard's columns in the NYT (less biased than the Florida newspaper, or a more acceptable bias, Levy?). In looking at his columns devoted to administrative costs, I no mention of 50-55% overhead, so he apparently is not the source of your fictitious numbers. He refers to a MacKinsie report, so they apparently are not the source. Is it you, after all?
But perhaps after all of this harassment from me, you will finally produce a link that provides such numbers, and backs them up with data. No?
You write:
"In looking at his columns devoted to administrative costs, I no mention of 50-55% overhead, so he apparently is not the source of your fictitious numbers".
Off course these numbers are fiction, because you plug a number which I never said. Maybe you need to read other people comments a bit more carefully, then reply.
The bottom line is, 45% or 55% - It is still way too much money wasted on HC administration in this country.
that was the jest of my thesis.
The bottom line is there is no 45% or 55% overhead. You made up the numbers. Your post was based on BS.
The overhead is too high - as high as 30% for some segments of the market. But why not deal with facts, rather than posting falsehoods to support your argument?
"Even if it isn't true, it should be true. and that is close enough for me"
I stand by my comments - period
(30% overhead is still too high)
Everyone in the US essentially has major medical insurance since hospitals are required to treat regardless of the ability to pay. The difference is that some people pay for the coverage and some don't. Frankly, I don't see an issue with the mandate which is essentially the same as the requirement that all wage earners pay now for future health care (medicare) and which esentially requires that everyone pays for what everyone gets.
As far as the option for individual states to implement a comprehensive health care bill as Romney did in Mass., I think that there are few other options which would distrort economic avtivity and interstate commerce more. A state that implemented such a universal plan would see higher costs/taxes which could cause some employers to move to other states. If I buy a car made in Detroit, about $2K of the cost is for employee/retiree healtcare cost (a large part of this is due to the union but not all). Employers shouldn't need to consider health care costs when deciding where to setup shop.
As far as the broccoli argument, if eating broccoli was proven to cure cancer which would save the federal govt say $1 trillion/year in medcial costs for cancer tretment which taxpayers ultimately pay for then I would say that the feds were constitutionally authorized (interstate commerce) and obligated to require broccoli eating in the same way that carcinogens and vaccinations are regulated/required.
Given that US medical care costs $2t/year, how could they not impact interstate commerce?
No. Obligating a market behavior of citizens is simply not a power our system provides the Federal Government. This is the controversy. Liberty is essentially a wall between government and individuals: it prevents many things (even those in the "public interest" and many things in the "individual's interest") from being forced upon citizens.
In a population which has a government, there is not nor can there be a definition of liberty which requires a wall between the government and individuals. The citizens 'surrender' certain liberties to the government subject to constraints defined through democratic processes (see Locke). This is true at the local government level (fire/building codes) and more so at the national level. In terms of federal powers, is there a more extreme example of surrendering liberty to the central government than being subject to the draft during Nam as I was and yet even this is rightly viewed as a necessary surrender to achieve the values and goals of the population.
In terms of obligating market behavior, having the health care mandate is the flip side of the coin given the federal laws requiring hospitals to provide health care regardless of the ability to pay which cost shifts the unreimbursed costs to my health insurance premium.
In terms of federal government powers versus individual liberties, there are no absolutes nor black and white answers.
I replied to you but the text is not showing up.
Lockean theories notwithstanding, government, crafted by a set of individuals, is consistent with barrier(s) to power over those individuals. The claim that individuals in forming government trade some freedom for the benefits of having government is merely assertion. Another way of saying it is that its an axiom in some system. I don't hear any support for the uniqueness of this system. But I'm waiting.
There is no analogy between a government's requirement that hospitals serve all customers. Hospitals may simply cease business to avoid this exercise of power. A mandate for individuals to buy services they may never want to exercise ( e.g. Jehovas's Witnesses) or live to use cannot be avoided in an analogous manner.
I refer you to Quine, just for variety.
Ihere are some pretty black and white answers to the position of the individual and the state: the individual is principal and the state is the agent.
this is certainly an interesting time to be heading into med school...blind
Has anyone else noticed The Economist has lost its way with respect to the difference between a Liberal (US Left) and a liberal (the philosophy committed to the ideal of limited government, constitutionalism, rule of law, due process, and liberty of individuals including freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, and free markets.)?
This is truly frightening. Newspeak has indeed become the norm.
I for one am very happy the health care law is in trouble. It has many flaws, the first of which is the mandate. But it does nothing to move health care to a more consumer oriented service. It actually makes it worse. The biggest problem of health care is the cost and the law worsens the problem. People need to be better consumers of health care and the sooner we accept that health care is a service the better it will be for the solutions to come up. A better health reform would increase the only two known forces that can lower costs, competition and economies of scale. Moving the choices closer to the consumer and away from government and insurance companies is the only way of doing that. But this is not the law. I hope it gets tossed out.
Buying health services is not like buying a toaster. How do you judge the quality of a health service? How do you know whether you're getting value for money? I suspect you've never had a complex health issue or managed the affairs of someone who does. The incredible range of choices you are faced with, the bills you receive, etc, makes it impossible to be a "good shopper". Given that most health expenses are limited to the sick or chronically ill, I see no way that an empowered medical consumer will make but the slightest dent on healthcare costs or quality. You're living in a dream world.
why is it not a service subject to shopper sensitivity? Sectors of health care that are not controlled by third party payer work under the same laws of supply and demand. The fact we do not have visibility into costs is one of the problems of the health care system. But one is not assigned whatever doctor the company chooses. The patient has a choice of doctors. One is expected to do their due diligence as for the quality of the doctor, is one not? As for the sick and chronically ill, that is the reason insurance exists. For regular care, preventive care, shopping is the solution.
Can the U.S. government make people buy medical insurance? Certainly it can. It already makes wage-earners buy Social Security, which is a form of insurance. It could even make them buy broccoli (the _reductio ad absurdam_ recently posited by Justice Scalia). If there were scientific evidence that broccoli prevented, e.g., cancer, it *would* make everyone consume broccoli -- and would be right to do so.
There's a precedent in the healthcare industry: In 1853 the Government made smallpox vaccinations compulsory (http://www.vaclib.org/basic/hadwen.htm). Vaccinations aren't free. QED.
Social Security is a tax. The tax pays for the social security benefits of those eligible for it. Perhaps one day when you are eligible, there will be some workers who will pay taxes to cover your benefits, don. Perhaps not.
National healthcare should be provided free of charge for all US citizens under the age of 18, after that you should be paying for it yourself. There is no reason tax dollars should be paying for overweight smokers who think McDonalds is a food group.
The Supreme Court could allow the individual mandate for catastrophic medical insurance but invalidate the mandate for basic insurance. Then they have to define catastrophic.
This would make it clear the government couldn't force you to buy broccoli.
That would be covered in the next law.
The court should strike down Obamacare, because they shouldn't interfere with the Invisible Hand that will fix the health system (among other things).
What "invisible hand" are you talking about? If you're talking about the health care market vs. the free market then you're talking about apple's and oranges. The invisible hand has its limits and one of those limits is the health care market which does not act like the free market. Because: A) You don't know when you're going to need a service B) The service is more expensive than most people can afford when they do need it and C) The demand curve does not behave in ways that are more practical like it does in the free market. Quotes are nice but rather than repeating the favored phrases of your heroes cough cough Milton Friedman, challenge them!
The health care industry doesn't act like a free market because it isn't. Can you shop across state lines for health care coverage? No. Is there an incentive once you're insured to find the best value? No. The primary forces that influene cos and price aren't really allowed to work under the current circumstance.
I think it's funny how people think that doing a few things like shopping across state lines is going to drive cost down. The reason the Health Care market does not act like the free market is because of complex reasons that I suggest you read about in a paper written in 1963 that won the Nobel prize in economics in the 70s on why the markets are not similar. You can look it up yourself.
Obviously the state lines retriction isn't the only factor influencing health care costs but it would indeed be funny for someone to make the claim that it does not factor into the market mechanisms affecting prices. The regulatory and licensing variances among the individual states do affect the market a great deal unintentionally. The complexity in and of itself acts as a barrier to free market principles. How best to remedy that is another discussion.
What free market principles? I don't see why people, liberals and conservatives, believe like religion that if their ideologies are embraced that the world will be a better place. I'm sure if you allowed people to shop across state lines all you would see is health care companies setting up in some back ass state like Kansas where they can deny coverage if you spell your name wrong or something. The driving cost of health care cost are A) unlimited coverage through medicare and B) Insurance companies. The free market does not work in all situations...or any situation purely anyway. It's more of a theory than an actual law.
thanks to the far right tendencies of The Economist, there are educated professionals who actually believe America is better of with a John Wayne healthcare system, than one more akin to a first world country where free healthcare is pretty much an assumption. You have to live in the US to witness the incompetence of hospitals, the massive bureaucracy of the health insurers, and general low quality of healthcare, and the trend toward third world status - at least in healthcare - that the country is suffering. Obamacare didn't go far enough. Yet it's in danger, thanks to a machine that spreads fear and ignorance - this conservative propaganda machine is endorsed and sponsored by The Economist.
There is no such thing as free healthcare. I would value foreign criticism of my government far more if it came from an educated point of view rather than one of ignorance.
100% agree there is no free healthcare. But we're asking employers to shoulder the burden, or leave it to employees. That's 3rd world thinking. A civilised country provides a platform for its citizens, employed or unemployed, on which they may choose to add. It's actually better for the economy when employers aren't saddled with this responsibility. It's not free - everyone pays for it whether they use it or not. That's what makes a 1st world nation. And the same goes with education.
At the very least a single payer system is " free" in that one doesn't have to depend on an employer to have it, and it's completely portable.
Private insurance to me simply seems like a completely unnecessary middleman, doing nothing but raising costs so someone can make a profit.
Fee for service is also another concept that increases costs. Seen a few of my docs call me back for completely unnecessary follow up visits simply because they were automatically covered by the insurance. There is plenty of evidence now regarding appropriate treatment for the majority of illness that could be means tested and cost controlled per diagnosis with some padding for unusual circumstances.
Another thought would be requiring everyone to provide copayment at point of service with reductions for folks who have good BMI, don't smoke or use drugs.
Can someone explain to me why the Dems didn't make the purchase of health insurance simply a tax write off instead of a mandate? It is totally within the powers of congress to do so and would make purchasing even basic insurance both economically viable and attractive to the public. It would have the added benefit of being a "cut" in taxes making it hard for the GOP to oppose. Perhaps even striking a balance and being considered "bipartisan" *shudder. It seems too simple a solution to be possible.
Ar far as why not a tax write off, perhaps because a high percentage of those without health insurance don't have any income to write the health care premiums off against. If you go to a refundable tax credit (Santorum has advocated this to a degree), then you are significantly increasing the costs to the federal budget which leaves you with the option to increase the budget deficit or offset with increased receipts (higher taxes, individual mandate, etc.).
Mark indirectly identifies the source of Obama's political blunder. He wanted to avoid the need for a tax increase to pay for the costs of the added coverage, so he came up with this scheme to rope in those who were not buying health insurance to provide the needed revenue. One problem identified is that the program is still underfunded and more money will have to be raised anyway. The other is that, as he was warned by many in his own party, this approach would not pass a constitutionality test.
Somewhere at some point is going to have to say 'NO!' to Americans insane demands that they have unfettered access to healthcare. We will get there by the end of the decade if no significant changes are made to Medicare.
It is either going to be the gov't or when risk is shifted back more towards the individual level & them purchasing healthcare.
I don't have a problem at all with the GOP finding insignificant shortfalls with the individual mandate or the overall lack of cost controls in Obamacare.
I do find it hilarious, ironic, and sad that a lot of the same GOP voters and reps who oppose it were for passing the biggest federal spending bill in American history in the past 50 years (MMA Act of 2003 to give drugs to seniors) and that they absolutely refuse to enact any kind of controls to limit Medicare spending for Boomers who are 55 and older.

The U.S. Army Cadet Corps is designed to give young people structure in a military environment. But what one family says happened at the summer camp in Millersburg, Ky., has them preparing for a legal fight.
A mother from Pendleton County told WLWT News 5's Brian Hamrick, "We felt like they were so close to us; we felt like they were family. We were just devastated and shell shocked." We are only identifying the mother of the alleged victims by her first name, Katrina. She is filing a lawsuit, saying that her then-16-year-old son was targeted by an instructor at the campus.
Katrina said the instructor "had my son alone and asked my son to do like the dirty dance."
She says the advances intensified. The lawsuit claims if the cadet complied he got special privileges and violations were ignored. If he did not, he was punished. Katrina says her son ultimately tried to commit suicide.
"He cut his arm pretty good. I think he said it was 11 stitches," Katrina said.
The U.S. Army Cadet Corps told WLWT News 5's Brian Hamrick it will not comment on pending litigation. But a statement from the group added its policies prohibits, "any adult from being unaccompanied with a child at any time."
But there's another allegation by the family. "My daughter was also sexually abused by another cadet," Katrina said.
Katrina claims that sexual misconduct came from another cadet when her daughter was 15 years old.
Eric Deters is the attorney for the family on both cases. He told Hamrick, "It's going to be one of those issues: What did they know? When did they know it? Should they have known? What kind of background information was known?"
A criminal investigation into the boy's allegations is going on now. The Bourbon County grand jury is expected to hear the case March 28.
The U.S. Army Cadet Corps is not affiliated with the United States Army.

2013 Chevrolet Spark Owner Reviews

Big step
I have owned a Silverado crew cab for 7 years and was ready to get better than 16 MPG. I looked at all brands 13 to be exact in the small car category but ALL were under 60 inches tall except the Spark, I am 6 foot and have a big belly. the only car I could get in without bending and hitting my head was this one. I was worried ********* size , but after my first tank of gas I was used to it. The only complaint it the placement of the drivers arm rest and controls are to low and my leg rests firmly against it is uncomfortable. But my first tank I averaged 40.1 MPG way over what the sticker said. this car is a BLAST to drive, I say don't knock it until you drive one!
