ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — Hundreds of candidates this fall are running in 213 state legislative districts carefully redrawn to protect Senate and Assembly majorities and reduce the influence of voters despite written promises to end the use of redistricting as a traditional tool of power in Albany.
About 130 incumbents who broke their pledge are counting on the historical, cynical view that voters wont remember or will ignore the fact that those in power drew their own districts to stay in power. Since 1970, just over 40 incumbent legislators have lost their jobs out of more than 4,000 races.
Former New York City Mayor Ed Koch led the effort to overhaul New Yorks once-a-decade redistricting process with his New York Uprising group, getting 300 incumbents and challengers to sign a pledge to create an independent body to draw nonpartisan election districts based on Census data, not political needs.
The big hammer, Koch said then, was that as a candidate, Gov. Andrew Cuomo had promised to veto the lines if the Senate and Assembly majorities continued to wield redistricting as a way to protect majority control.
Everyone signed it cynically, said Bill Samuels, founder the New Roosevelt good-government group and EffectiveNY.org think tank. We had a governor who not only didnt hold them to the pledge, but winked.
Cuomo leveraged the key issue of new district lines to earn several of his own early political victories, before ultimately agreeing to the lines drawn by Republicans in the Senate and Democrats in the Assembly.
Until we as voters let the governor and let the two legislative leaders know we are not happy about this, Samuels said, we have no one to blame but ourselves for not speaking up.
Sen. Michael Gianaris, a Democrat from Queens, introduced a bill for independent redistricting more than two years ago and it seemed to have a mighty patron in the governor.
This legislation, coupled with the recent effort by citizens groups led by former Mayor Ed Koch illustrates that the time is ripe for action, Cuomo stated in his campaign book in 2010.
Senate Republican leader Dean Skelos, through a spokesman, said two months before the 2010 elections: Our commitment is real. Its genuine. Republicans were seeking to regain the majority then, and criticized Democrats for being slow to make the pledge.
Democratic Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver never signed the pledge, as a matter of personal policy, but in May 2010 he committed to change the process to make races more competitive. He did not support creating an independent commission.
In the end, the Senate and Assembly leaders approved the new districts lines and made another promise: to pursue a constitutional amendment to create an independent process in 10 years.
Cuomo insists the long-term fix of an amendment effective in 2022 would be a permanent solution and better than vetoing the Senate and Assembly plans this year. Cuomo and legislative leaders negotiated a proposed constitutional amendment to create independent redistricting. If the Legislature fails to send a constitutional amendment to voters, a state law would kick in that forces a more independent process.
The redistricting processes are specifically provided in the New York State constitution and they will be changed by the people of the state in a referendum next November, if the people so decide, and that is how our democracy was designed to work, said Cuomo spokesman Rich Bamberger.
Koch called the lawmakers dishonorable and enemies of reform, even chiding them with, Liar, liar pants on fire.
They failed in their obligations to their constituents, Koch said Friday. Regrettably, they wont suffer any penalty for their chicanery.
The effect of the new district lines on this years legislative races is immeasurable, according to Steven Greenberg of the Siena College poll.
This is a state that is virtually 2-to-1 Democratic, Greenberg said. The only way the Republicans can continue to control the majority in the Senate is to draw the lines to their best advantage. Theyve done that.
A month before the elections, Senate Republicans have five times more campaign cash than their rivals and are confident they will maintain their 33-29 majority, or even add a seat or two. Republicans also added a 63rd seat in their redistricting plan. It encompasses the district of popular Republican Assemblyman George Amedore, who was selected to pursue the seat this fall.
These are fair lines that were upheld by the courts, said Scott Reif, spokesman for the Senates Republican majority.
Republicans are quick to note that when the Democrats were in the Senate majority for one chaotic term from 2008 to 2010, they promised to enact independent redistricting that would level the field with Republicans, but never did.
The Republican plan includes a redrawn 60th District in Erie County, held by Republican Mark Grisanti, who narrowly won it. His district no longer includes most of its minority neighborhoods when it was represented by a black Democrat, Antoine Thompson.
Republicans have thumbed their noses at the people of the state and manipulated the power for their own means, said Gianaris, head of the Senate Democratic campaign committee.
There was less tension in the Democrat-led Assembly where Democrats have a much wider gap over their majority. Republican Assembly members squawked less, although some districts were clearly contorted to include some Democratic enclaves in Republican upstate areas, Samuels said.
In fact, 23 Republicans voted for the Democrats plan in the Assembly in a 98-44 while the Senate vote was along party lines.

The voting was quite close among those three players, with Green actually receiving more first-place votes than Leonard, but the reigning NBA Finals MVP won the award by 16 voting points.
The selection of Leonard isn't shocking because he was undeserving; it's more surprising because of how unlikely it was that he would win based on past voting trends and the perception of his candidacy. According to the ESPN Forecast panel, which has been pretty accurate with award predictions the past couple of years, Leonard was given only a 1 percent chance of winning the award.
As others have noted, the evaluation of defense has improved considerably in recent years. Instead of focusing almost exclusively on traditional defensive stats like blocks and rebounds (which would heavily favor Jordan this year), more in-depth measures are being considered.
These include:
• How specific opponents perform vs. the player in question, using manual video tracking like Synergy or automated player tracking like SportVU.
• How a team's defense performs with a player on vs. off the court, using play-by-play data.
• More sophisticated, statistically based measures like defensive real plus-minus (RPM), which looks at on-off court stats and adjusts for teammates and opposition, among other things.
In the case of this year's race, Synergy notes that Leonard allowed the fewest points per play when defending pick-and-roll ball handlers among the 71 players who faced at least 200 such plays this season. That speaks to how well he performs in his defensive role, going beyond the basics (like Leonard leading the league with 2.3 steals per game).
On-off data also supports Leonard's candidacy, as the Spurs' defense was about five points per 100 possessions better with him on the court than off -- and that difference took them from about average without him on the floor to elite when he was playing. The difference was similar for the Warriors' defense with and without Green, but the Clippers' defense was actually slightly better with Jordan off the court.
Specific to the case of Jordan, back in March Tom Haberstroh did a great job of explaining why the Clippers center shouldn't have been a DPOY candidate. That article got a lot of attention, in large part because Doc Rivers blasted it -- while admitting he hadn't read it. Perhaps that influenced voters to look beyond the basics that would traditionally favor the big man's candidacy over the others.
Finally, the defensive RPM numbers are very high on Leonard, saying that his defensive impact is worth nearly five points per 100 possessions to the Spurs, controlling for who he plays with and against, among other things. Green's impact is of a similar magnitude, while Jordan is much further back.
Evaluating defense in basketball is quite difficult for many reasons, but vast improvements have been made to NBA defensive metrics over the last few years. Leonard winning the Defensive Player of the Year award may be kind of shocking in terms of historical precedent, but it shows that a sizable portion of the media is beginning to pay attention to those better methods of evaluation and making smarter choices as a result.

ATLANTA -- "16-2," DeMarre Carroll said.
The Atlanta starters had waxed the reserves in the intrasquad scrimmage during practice on Friday, which wouldn't be a revelation, except that it's far less common than you'd think. As he made note of the margin, Carroll pointed to the scoreboard in the Hawks' practice gym.
"The bench usually takes care of us in practice," Carroll said. "Ask Elton [Brand] about it. He pushes them -- and he always brags about it. But today the energy [among the starters] was so high. It was amazing."
To a man, each Hawk who spoke on Friday emphasized the intensity level during the workout. The declarations weren't statements of pride -- players 1 through 5 should beat players 6 through 10 -- so much as acknowledgements that it felt good to ready themselves for some games with serious table stakes. For the better part of a month, the Hawks have been locked into the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference. Though they'd never insult fans who paid their hard-earned shekels to watch professional basketball, getting through the back end of their schedule was an exercise in mild indifference, especially coming down off the adrenaline of an improbable midseason run, a winner's remix of the Nuggets' "1-2-3 ... six weeks!"
"It does feel like we have not played a meaningful game in a long time," Kyle Korver said. "It feels that way. But we had a great practice today. Guys had super-high energy. We're ready to go."
Their opponents are the 38-44 Brooklyn Nets, at least to most. To the Hawks, they're the gift that keeps on giving. On July 2, 2012, one week into general manager Danny Ferry's tenure, the Hawks traded Joe Johnson and the nearly $90 million remaining on his contract to Brooklyn for a trove of expiring contracts, a first-round pick, a second-round pick and the right to swap picks in 2014 and 2015. The deal created a trade exception for Atlanta, as well. John Hollinger broke down the trade the morning after, and had this to say:
"With two landmark moves in a period of hours Monday that wiped nearly $90 million off the payroll, the Hawks went from a franchise that considered losing in the second round of the playoffs to be the pinnacle of human achievement to being one that could matter -- I mean really, truly matter -- for the first time since Dominique Wilkins was making nightly highlight films."
The Hawks now really, truly matter and the foundation of that relevance is the dividends of the Johnson trade. The Hawks used that exception to acquire Korver from Chicago. The payroll flexibility created by the deal enabled the Hawks to sign Paul Millsap, to retain Korver when his contract expired the following summer, to make a reasonable offer to Jeff Teague that wouldn't cramp their style and to bolster the roster with a nice complement of reserves.
The Nets can't begrudge the Hawks that, but having to fork over their draft pick this summer to a flourishing team while they creep closer to old age can't be an affirming experience. The Hawks, meanwhile, have the pleasure of enjoying their best season in franchise history and still picking in the top half of the draft.
The Hawks are the anti-Nets, a franchise that values long-range planning and constructing a roster with purpose. Korver and Carroll might not be complete players, but they're so perfectly suited to the system in Atlanta that you can imagine the "Korver-Carroll" wing tandem becoming a league model: Throw an elite defender who can shoot a little bit and an elite shooter who can defend a little bit out at the 2 and the 3, and you're set. They're also considerably cheaper than Johnson, a prolific isolation threat who nevertheless constricts an offense. The Nets didn't care. For them, building a team comes from the accumulation of individual talent. For the Hawks, it comes from the adoption of collective principles.
All that sounds precious, but the Hawks rode that ethic to 60 wins. For nearly six months, they've been the NBA's fair-haired child, one who defied 100-1 preseason title odds and the September dust-ups with owner Bruce Levenson and Ferry to close up the top seed in late March. But the moment they take the court at Philips Arena late on Sunday afternoon, the Hawks officially calibrate their expectations. Their regular season was a real achievement, and there probably hasn't been a full appreciation. But a Southeast Division Champs banner is still a lousy return on 60 wins, even if it looks pretty in contrast to the woeful fortunes of the Nets.

Las Vegas Sands Corp.: Betting on Growth
Jeroen Van Den Berg; Frederik Pretorius
In May 2004, Las Vegas Sands Corp. became the first to open a Western-style casino in the Chinese enclave of Macau. Run and owned in majority by Sheldon Adelson, Nevada-based Las Vegas Sands Corp. had pioneered the convention-driven business model in the Las Vegas gaming industry. As one of three new gaming license holders in Macau, Adelson was set to replicate the model in Macau and break the monopoly held by Stanley Ho's Sociedade de Turismo e Diversoes de Macau (STDM) for more than 40 years. By May 2005, Macau was experiencing construction frenzy. Billions of dollars worth of casinos, convention venues, and hotels were under development. Las Vegas Sands Corp. was one of the main instigators, with a US$1.8 billion casino resort under construction, as well as an interest in six hotel casino complexes. The company was also expanding its Las Vegas business with a US$1.6 billion casino resort next to its existing Las Vegas Venetian development.
Learning objective:
To step into the shoes of an analyst and prepare a valuation of Las Vegas Sands Corp. However, unlike a more traditional valuation of a company operating in an established industry, a valuation of Las Vegas Sands Corp. cannot be based on its historical performance. Instead, students have to work with estimated future revenue streams of Las Vegas Sands' properties, many of which are still under construction.

25 February 2013 14:56 [Source: ICIS news]
By Joseph Chang
NEW YORK (ICIS)--Just how far up the global ethylene cost curve will Middle East crackers go? One Wall Street analyst sees dramatic cost escalation for producers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Iran as ethane supplies dry up and feedstock costs rise, especially for mixed feed crackers that use ethane as well as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) – propane and butane.
It's certainly worth watching as US producers move down the cost curve on the shale gas boom and resulting low ethane prices. All the new crackers being built in the US are based on ethane, while Middle East projects are largely mixed feed.
While Middle East ethane crackers still enjoy the lowest costs in the world with a 46% cost advantage relative to US ethane crackers, Middle East mixed feed crackers have a 24% cost disadvantage to US ethane crackers, according to Hassan Ahmed, analyst at Alembic Global Advisors.
"NGL [natural gas liquids] production in Saudi Arabia has remained relatively flat over the last few years while ethylene capacity has increased considerably," said Ahmed. "Saudi Arabia has been running short of NGLs since 2009 and not surprisingly is considering heavier feeds like naphtha for further chemical expansions."
The analyst added that state oil and gas company Saudi Aramco has not made any new ethane allocations to the chemical sector in Saudi Arabia since 2006 because it is likely that it foresaw ethane shortages.
Saudi Aramco's $20bn (€15bn) Sadara joint venture with US-based Dow Chemical in Al-Jubail will be based on 70% naphtha feedstock, with ethane, propane and butane comprising the rest.
The second phase of Saudi Aramco and Japan-based Sumitomo Chemical's Petro Rabigh project will involve additional ethane but also use 3m tonnes/year of naphtha as feedstock.

In Qatar, in early 2005, the government placed a 5-year moratorium on additional development projects in its offshore North Field, the largest non-associated gas field in the world, noted Ahmed. And then in December 2009, an official at state-owned Qatar Petroleum said a decision on new North Field developments would not be taken until 2014, essentially extending the moratorium.
"This has clear ramifications on petrochemical supply in Qatar. Even if the very day the moratorium were lifted, the decision to add a new cracker was announced, it would still take four years to bring it on stream," said the analyst.
Analysing raw material cost data from the state fertilizer company QAFCO from 2004 up until 2009 when it stopped releasing certain details from its financial statements, Ahmed concludes that natural gas prices charged to the chemical industry in Qatar may have risen from $1.25/MMBtu in 2004, to around $3.00/MMBtu in 2009.
In Iran, aside from the global trade sanctions led by the US, which is severely limiting its petrochemical and derivative exports, a plan approved by the Iranian parliament in October 2009 and started in December 2010 will eventually set natural gas prices to market prices, noted the analyst.
"Industrial projects, including the petrochemical projects, now have to pay around $2/MMBtu for natural gas for the first year of the reform plan, which is considerably higher than the past price of $0.53/MMbtu in early 2010," said Ahmed.
Looking ahead, Iran plans to increase gas prices to 65% of the average export gas price within 10 years, suggesting gas prices of $5.20-6.50/MMBtu, the analyst added.
Ultimately, all these changing cost factors are worth another look when considering the Middle East's position on the global ethylene cost curve.
For US producers, Ahmed sees a peak in the commodity chemical cycle by 2015-2016, and one higher and longer drawn out than in past cycles.
"Our view of an imminent peak in the commodity chemical cycle is primarily predicated on what we consider to be a capacity vacuum arising between 2012 and 2017 as Middle Eastern producers exit the capacity game and US capacity additions are still years out," he said.
The amplitude of the peak will be higher for US producers, as they are further down the cost curve. Plus, the cost curve has become steeper than in previous years, he added.

Stocks gain for fifth day; builds on record highsAP Photo
Maureen Smaldone, a trader for Brendan E. Cryan and Company, monitors trading activity from her workstation at the New York Stock Exchange.NEW YORK The Dow pushed further into record territory Thursday, having surpassed its previous all-time high two days ago. The catalyst was the latest evidence that hiring is picking up.
Stocks started higher after the Labor Department reported that the number of Americans seeking unemployment aid fell by 7,000 last week, driving the four-week average to its lowest in five years. The drop is a positive sign ahead of Fridays employment report.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose 33 points to 14,329 by the closing bell.
The Dow barreled through a record high Tuesday and has since added to its gains.
Investors have been buying stocks on optimism that employers are slowly starting to hire again and that the housing market is recovering. Growing company earnings are also encouraging investors to get into the market. The Dow is 9.3 percent higher this year and the broader S&P 500 is up 8.2 percent.
If you have a multi-year time horizon, equities are an attractive asset, but dont be surprised to see some volatility, especially after the big run weve had, said Michael Sheldon, chief market strategist at RDM Financial Group.
Boeing led the Dow higher Wednesday, advancing $1.85 to $80.91 following reports that U.S. regulators were poised to approve a plan within days to allow the plane maker to begin test flights of its 787 Dreamliner. The 787 fleet has been grounded since Jan. 16 because of safety concerns about the planes batteries. Twenty one stocks in the 30-member index advanced.
The Federal Reserve will release the results of its annual stress test for banks after the market closes Thursday. Financial stocks advanced amid speculation that banks will have amassed enough capital to be able to return more cash to shareholders. Bank of America was the second biggest gainer in the Dow, rising 25 cents to $12.16, with JPMorgan Chase in third spot, gaining 46 cents to $50.54.
Any decline in stocks may be short-lived, as investors who have missed out on the rally since the start of the year jump into the market, says Jeffery Saut, chief investment strategist at Raymond James.
The rally is going to go higher than most people think, says Saut. This thing has caught most money managers flat-footed.
The stock markets rally this year has been helped in no small part by continuing economic stimulus from the Federal Reserve.
The U.S. central bank began buying bonds in January 2009 and is still purchasing $85 billion each month in Treasury bonds and mortgage-backed securities.
That has kept interest rates near historic lows, reducing borrowing costs and encouraging investors to move money out of conservative investments like bonds and into stocks.
The Nasdaq composite advanced six points, 0.2 percent, to 3,228.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury note, which moves inversely to its price, rose to 1.99 percent from 1.94 percent.MORE IN World/National BusinessWASHINGTON The Obama administrations far-reaching plan to address climate change would cause...

You have to love the people who denigrate others based on something irrelevant, like choice of words, instead of coming up with an articulate counter-point. Seriously, if you disagree with another person's comments, try stating some reason, substantiate your belief system with empirical evidence, use some fact. Otherwise, your attempt to marginalize another because they don't have what you deem to be a sufficient vocabulary is obtuse at best.
Our house will always be in disrepair. I just wish we could decide what America's economic policy should be and stick with it. Are we Capitalist, Communist, Facists, or the rich uncle who gives out free cars. This indecisiveness over where our money should go is strangling middle america. We cannot be all of the above.
In this bill I learned there is a ban on small arms which leaves the general public defenseless and enforcement would be enforced by UN troops, commits us to annual taxation of 7% of US gross national product. Many other items within this bill will be terrible for the average American and the American economy. I do not believe the average American knows Obama does not fly our American Flag. The middle American can barely feed his own, how does anyone in there right mind think they can feed a starving world? Are Americans being sold out?
You are wrong here. Please read the bill carefully and do not disseminate false or misleading information. The bill is good for America because it helps reduce extreme poverty in the developing world which lifts all boats, economically speaking. Your 7% figure is grossly exaggerated. The actually figure is .7 percent of the GNP which is a figure that the United States and the rest of the developed world pledged to provide in Official Development Assistance over 30 years ago, and we have never even approached aid at those levels. We are far behind most other developed countries in helping other less advantaged people around the world. Most of our so-called foreign aid goes for military aid for just two countries: Israel and Egypt. In absolute numbers our humanitarian aid seems generous, but in percentage of GNP it is far below what smaller developed countries like Norway and Sweden and Denmark provide. We give less in humanitarian aid because our defense budget requires so much, trillions and trillions of dollars. Now we have to protect the rest of the world that has cut their military exprenditures in favor of domestic spending on such necessities as universal health care coverage and good schools. We have lousy schools and a lousy health insurance coverage.
Lets downsize military expenditures and use the money for national health care and better schools.
The Clinton's did this for their entire presidency and look where it got us. 9/11. Say what you will, but a large portion of the world would like nothing but to see the demise of the United States of America. The one sure way to ensure our survival is reliance on our own military.
They are jealous of what our forefathers have built for us to enjoy.
What I find unbelievable is that we now have this worldwide raving majority saying we are evil. Come the first tsunami or earthquake or flood or refugee movement and they are looking to us for food and water.
What happened after Katrina? Where was Denmark, Norway and Sweden? Ii did not see their helicopters flying over New Orleans. I did not see their Navy supplying humanitarian aid just off our coast. Do you know why? BECAUSE WE ARE THE ONES WHO FILL THIS ROLE! EVERYWHERE!
Did anyone forget that it was the U.S. that FREED DENMARK, SWEDEN AND NORWAY from the Nazis? How many US lives were lost fighting for THIER FREEDOM?
WELL? Anyone care to answer that? Learn your history BEFORE making assinine comments. -
If you like universal health care so much then let's do it.
I am all in favor of SHRINKING our average life expectancy. Making us go to doctors we do not care for. Waiting for elective surgeries because we cannot choose what we want done and when we want it done.
Sure, universal health care means that everyone is covered. What level are you willing to support it? Can YOU afford a whole new, non-deductible tax in your paycheck?
How do we pay for all of the nifty research that the OTHER DEVELOPED COUNTRIES DO NOT PAY FOR? When our "expensive" private health care system goes away, so goes the expensive medical and pharmaceutical research! Get a clue.
I need to feed and clothe my innocent children BEFORE I give a hand-out to another toxic, non-democratic regime in Africa. -
The article i just read on the french system was interesting. Their system is goverment run and guided. It says in the article that so long as we recognize the legitemate role of government in overseing the rules and the framework within which these actors operate.
In france the doctors earn 1/4 of that which they earn here. They strike because they are being treated unfairly by the government. There are striking disparities in the quality of healthcare in different regions. There are lists of hospitals delivering dangerous healthcare.
Do i know what the answer is no. But i know that i will never say that a freedom loving american can ever say that they recognize the legitemate role of government in overseeing anything. Our country is based on the individual and individual ownership, not in government control of private industry.
This country is falling to those who dont want to work and earn the money it takes to bring about change.Those so called educated elite who dont understand what it takes to create wealth, but still believe they understand how to spend it.
Lets (western nations)tie the price of food to the towelheads to the price of oil they sell us. It requires lots of energy to get the food to market so its fair.!! Next psunami? Let Allah help! Afterall, they hate us over there dont they? Africa? lets supply them with condoms and instruction at how to use them. In a few generations, the problems in Africa will wain Kosovo? Isn't that near Europe…Maybe Europe can help solve that! Defending the rest of the world Bring all our troops home and protect our borders! Try to take my gun?? I don't think that would be smart of you to try!! if the liberals want to give all their money to dirtbags around the world, let them give their money Not mine! Do I care if you think Im selfish or uncompassionate? No Friggn Way! Im just sick of all the crap. It's Time to take back the TV from Japan and Korea and time to start drivng Chevys again God Bless (help) America
"In absolute numbers our humanitarian aid seems generous, but in percentage of GNP it is far below what smaller developed countries like Norway and Sweden and Denmark provide."
Here, you are making a typical error, ignoring the "humanitarian" aid that comes from non-governmental sources, such as churches, privately-run missions, and individual donors, which is far better targeted and more effective than government aid. Individually, Americans are the most generous people on earth, sending millions in private donations annually to places most of us can't find on a map because there is a need.
If, in fact, we want to lift the Third World out of poverty, sending them a check is the wrong way. We should target our money to drilling wells to provide potable drinking water and water for irrigation, to educating their citizens on basic sanitation and sustainable agricultural practices, and to developing farm-to-market road systems that will encourage entrepreneurship.
Before you pontificate about poor countries, you should try living in one for a few years. Then, you would know that government dollars more often than not go to buy new Mercedes and villas for local bureaucrats.
Well its interesting that you skipped the small arms confiscation. Do you stand in a position superior to our founding fathers. They understood the insidiousness of tyrany. That our country must be prepared to defend itself from the very government that pretends to protect it. Do you live in an idealistic bubble. Do you think dictators tell the people the truth when they are spewing their toxic babble.
Its all for your good. Have you read the books animal farm and 1984. Do you live in a plastic bubble with dancing unicorns that you can ride at will. The patriarch kennedy in WWII gave away the farm to hitler and did it stop him no.
A global party where everyone is equal, wake up from your sixties flashback drug haze. Dictators and our race sad as it is only knows force. We are animals who believe we have the ability to self rule, but were bad at it. Look at history.
If you let them take away our weapons then soon theyll take away our private property. After that they start executing all that disagree with them.
The funny thing is they usually start executing the intellectuals like yourself first.Remember that reality the next time you take a ride on your unicorn.
If only Americans understood what Universal Health Care is really about. For one thing, can you name anything that the government manages that is not a total screw-up. I have relatives in Canada and they can tell you what Universal Health Care is, and believe me it's not what I nor anyone I know want. Before Americans start screaming about what they don't have, they need to do a little research to see what the people in these "government run" countries really have. And another thing, government run health care IS NOT FREE, the premiums are deducted from your check just like Federal, FICA, etc. taxes before you see them.
Wake up people, if you want to live in a socialist or communist country, then MOVE…
Do you really think that taking a huge chunk of the little military budget would finance health care for 330 million people? And build schools? Do a quick comparison of the actual military budget and compare it to what we (already) spend on useless entitlement programs that reward the non-working class at the expense of the people that are willing to work. Every time I hear this argument, I have to think about all the people that espouse knowledge of economics, but really only repeat what their masters tell them.
Get a real education (your government will pay for it).
National health care money goes to lawyers and frivoulous law suites. People don't have insurance because they are lazy and won't get a job or they don't want to spend money on premiums.
The NEA is filled with jerk teachers who don't want to really work and teach radical liberalism and sex ed and not much more. They have screwed up this country with revised history and lousy classroom conduct. They all should be put on probation and fined for filling kids heads with crap.
People need to take responsibility for their decisions. Make a bad decision that ruins your life then it's your responsiblity to work to fix it – not the rest of the country. -

FORT MEADE, Md. - Army Cyber Command got a helping hand from 10 Soldiers from the Army's 518th Tactical Installation Networking Company from Fort Gordon, Ga. April 11 – 18 when they installed 1,200 feet of 600 pair cable and 400 feet of 300 pair cable to provide building 8605 with additional telephone capacity .
"This is an important mission," said Herman Wells, Army Cyber G-6, chief, plans and policy division. "It gives our command the capacity needed for telephone communications and provides a hands-on mission for the 518th."
Fort Meade, Md., elements of Army Cyber Command are currently split between multiple buildings on post. The assistance from the 518th aids those in various staff sections in accomplishing the Army Cyber mission by increasing building connectivity.
The cable was installed underground leading from a remote service center to the access area in Building 8605.
"Now that their work is complete, all that needs to happen is to connect the phones," said Wells.
Wells said the Army's Network Enterprise Center at Fort Meade performed a key role in helping prepare for this mission and assisting while the 518th was onsite.
" We provided support before the 518th arrived," said Larry Jones, Fort Meade Network Enterprise Center. " We received the actual cable from the supplier and delivered it to the work site. We also provided the equipment."
Jones said the 518th TIN team spliced the 300 pair cable to the 600 pair cable, and from there ran the 300 pair cable underground into Building 8605.
"This was one of the first opportunities for the 518th team to splice cable on the job, and we were able to help them," said Jones. "Once they performed the splicing on their own, they were able to finish the job."
Brad Bytmar, a cable technician assigned to GSTek Inc., Fort Meade's equivalent of the telephone company, said he was there to provide access to the manholes.
"We're responsible for maintaining the manholes, to make sure they don't fill up with storm water," said Bytmar.
Working inside a cramped manhole, Sgt. Barrett A. Christian, 518th TIN, cable systems installer, maintainer, tugged and pushed to thread the cable through an underground duct.
"We started to install the cable by hand, but it was very slow and laborious," said Christian. "Then we connected one end of the cable to a truck provided by the NEC, which then pulled the cable at a constant rate. This way the cable is less likely to get damaged or break."
Up above, Sgt. Alrice W. Barnes, also a cable systems installer, maintainer, guided the cable into the manhole.
Spc. Toby A. Skander, another 518th cable systems installer, maintainer, said the "518th is getting ready for a deployment to Afghanistan later this year. This is similar to the type of work the 518th might be called on to perform in Afghanistan. Right now we are doing less of our specialty work in garrison as we undergo more pre- mobilization training."
While the 518th's primary mission is to support Army networks worldwide, they can and do support emergency missions worldwide, as in Haiti during the aftermath of the earthquake that struck there Jan. 12, 2010.
The 518th is one of only two TINs in the Army, said Wells. The other is the 16th TIN, based at Fort Hood, Texas.
Army Cyber Command was activated Oct. 1, 2010. The headquarters is located at Fort Belvoir, Va. Staff elements are located at Fort Meade, Md.
