Return of the Princess
Wenn, Carl Court/ WPA Pool/ Getty
As announced yesterday, Catherine Cambridge returned to public duty today in London as she joined Prince William for the President of Singapore's state visit. She wore grey, Alexander McQueen. And eyeliner. We now know that it's still pretty early in her pregnancy with Clarence House's announcement that the baby is due in April. Full Story
The return of Katy Cambridge
It's been six weeks since it was announced Catherine Cambridge's second pregnancy. She hasn't been seen since summer. Today, they confirmed when she's due. Kensington Palace released a statement today as follows: "Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are delighted to confirm they are expecting a baby in April 2015. Full Story

Catherine Cambridge is pregnant for Prince William again. She was expected to join him for an appearance at Oxford today but is dealing with the same morning sickness situation that she had the first time around with Big G. Which is probably why Kensington Palace made the announcement this morning. Full Story
The poppies at the Tower
Wenn, Neil P. Mockford/ WPA Pool/ Getty
Yesterday marked the 100th anniversary of the start of the Great War. There were commemorative events all around the world. Britain observed an hour of darkness in honour of those who lost their lives. Prince William, Catherine, and Prince Harry were in Belgium to attend a dedication. Today, the three were back in London, at the Tower of London, touring through the Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red installation that, by November 11, on Armistice Day, will represent the 888,246 fallen soldiers from the UK, Australia, and the Commonwealth, each life remembered with a poppy.

Prince Harry is also at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow with his brother and sister-in-law. You remember when his grandmother the Queen photobombed a few young students last week? Harry did the same thing to some people from Massey University. In case you missed it: here's our very own Gary Hermansson getting photo bombed by Prince Harry at #Glasgow2014 Full Story

The Cambridges have been in Glasgow the last few days for the Commonwealth Games. Yesterday they were at the swimming centre (she wore a sleeveless shirt under a blazer and pants) and today they were spectators at the athletics competition (in a blue dress). Something happens to Will and Kate when they're at sporting events. Full Story
Dear Gossips,
It's Big G's first birthday! His parents have urged the public to refrain from sending gifts, not only because that child has everything he could possible want, but also because that child only wants things he can crush. Like butterflies.
More images have been released from Big G's visit to the butterfly exhibit, his parents gifting us with two more shots of the Bruiser Prince. As you can see, he's fascinated by them, and at one point, reaches out to touch one on his father's hand. That poor butterfly must have been like F-ck Me, how did I get chosen to hang out with the Gregor Clegane of the Windsor line?
And then there's Blake Lively who launched Preserve late yesterday, reportedly two days ahead of schedule, clearly not intimidated by the royal milestone. Read Full Intro
Big G on his feet
JOHN STILLWELL/ Getty
Big Prince G turns 1 tomorrow and to commemorate the milestone, his parents have released a photo of him for the first time on his feet, all by himself. It was taken a couple of weeks ago at the National History Museum in London where they were visiting the Sensational Butterflies exhibition. Um. Full Story
Uncle for the second time?
Mike Marsland/ Getty
Prince Hot Harry on a Horse was on his horse this weekend at a polo match. I do like a ginger in red. Uncle Ginger might be an uncle again…that is if you believe Jessica Hay. Hay claims to be an old friend of Katy Cambridge. When Katy was pregnant with Big G, it was Hay who told the media that she was expecting (November 2012) and that she'd be making an announcement the following month. Full Story
Dear Gossips,
Prince Big G turns a year old on July 22. So Vanity Fair is celebrating him by putting him the cover. I don't understand why none of them, especially him, the star of the show, are looking directly AT the camera. Perhaps it's meant to convey how connected they all are as a family. But this kid, he's given us some good face. Some really good crabby, I WANT I WANT I WANT face. And if you're going to do this, if you're going to make a baby your cover star, you might as well go all the way with it.
As for the article, it's boring. He was colicky and hungry. He wasn't a great sleeper. Something about a nanny. Something about renovations. Jesus, is this gossip now? That an infant cries a lot and needs to eat and can't keep a sleep schedule?
Tell me about the time he uttered his first word: MINE. Read Full Intro
Sporty royal weekend
Chris Jackson /Getty Images, Splash News
The Cambridges and Hot Harry were on hand to celebrate the first stage of the Tour de France this weekend. Kate wore green and I wonder if she was too hot. She laughed and touched her stomach and everyone else is wondering if she's expecting another baby. They're waiting for the spare. They can't wait for the spare. Full Story
Will, Kate, and Genie
Karwai Tang/ Getty
Genie Bouchard! Canada's golden girl won her quarterfinal match today at Wimbledon, advancing to the semifinals…which will be her THIRD grand slam semi this year. Wimbledon. They call it the "cathedral of tennis". And Genie calls herself a princess, sometimes. Well, there was a princess in the cathedral today. Full Story
Kate & Pippa open July
Stuart C. Wilson /Getty Images
Princess Catherine visited with students and staff at M-PACT Plus Counselling today in London while her sister was broadcast on US morning television as part 2 of her interview with Matt Lauer aired on The Today Show. Anything good? No. Boring. How boring? Pippa Middleton managed to make even Big G sound boring. Full Story
A loving royal gaze
WPA Pool/ Chris Jackson/ Getty
The Order of the Garter service happened yesterday in London where both Prince Charles and Prince William were in attendance. Princess Catherine was there to support her father-in-law and husband. Camilla couldn't come because she's sick. She's done this before, Katy Cambridge, but if it were me and Jacek, we would not be able to keep a straight face looking at all those feathers. Full Story

CANTON The Development Authority of the North Country will be the recipient of a $250,000 award from Empire State Development to further its installation of broadband projects in underserved parts of the region.
As part of Gov. Andrew M. Cuomos Regional Economic Development initiative, DANC will receive the funding toward its design and installation of six miles of internet fiber cable in Canton and the village of Rensselaer Falls. The project was initiated to provide telecommunication diversity to the Canton Corning plant but will also generally expand broadband connectivity.
The main purpose was to get service to Corning, said David M. Wolf, DANC telecommunication division manager. As long as we were going up to Corning, we thought wed continue up to Rensselaer Falls.
Corning is served by Verizon but wanted a backup as assurance it could communicate with its headquarters and exchange data, Mr. Wolf said.
The fiber line will connect in Rensselaer Falls to a system operated by Slic Network Connections.
Slic may provide the last mile service to residents in the area who live along the DANC line, Slic President and General Manager Phillip J. Wagschal said.
Most the work to install the line has already been completed, Mr. Wolf said.

text: Homeopathic Materia Medica by FarringtonHALOGENS( )Today we begin the study of the chemical elements termed halogens ; Iodine, Bromine, Fluorine and Chlorine are the elements in this group. As a group, the halogens may be remembered by this great characteristic symptom, they all act upon the larynx and bronchial tubes, and in fact upon mucous membranes generally. They are decidedly irritating to the mucous membranes, producing violent inflammation, rawness and excoriation, as anybody can testify who has once inhaled the fumes of Chlorine, Iodine or Bromine. They all produce spasm of the glottis and this is most marked, has proved most characteristic in Chlorine, although they all have it. They all tend to produce pseudomembranous formations on the mucous membranes. All excepting Chlorine, tend to produce croupous membranes; Chlorine tends more to diphtheritic membrane than pure croupous. All of the halogens act upon the glandular system producing enlargement, induration and even abscess in glands. Thus we find them all useful in scrofulosis, especially Iodine, which leads the list. Cyanogen also belongs to this group chemically, although it is properly considered as belonging to organic chemistry. It has many similarities to these drugs, and, like Chlorine, is useful in diphtheritic deposits. Thus we use Hydrocyanic acid and Amygdala persica (which contains hydrocyanic acid) for diphtheritic sore-throat, and we may use the Cyanide of Mercury for some of the worst forms of diphtheria. The same is true to a less degree with Cyanide of Potassium. These general characteristics of the halogens lead you at times to say, "This patient needs one of the halogens, which shall it be?" To answer that question we must study these four elements separately and by comparison.I will first call your attention to BROMINE. Bromine produces a rather peculiar effect on the mind, causing a sort of vertigo, which is worse from running water. Moving rapidly by the patient produces this vertigo. It is associated with a peculiar anxious state of the mind. Now this anxiety belongs to all of the halogens. It hardly originates in the mind, probably coming from some defect in the body itself. It is a common symptom in heart and lung affections, and it is probably thence that the symptom springs. This anxiety is expressed in this way: The patients expect to see objects jump around them or they think that somebody is about them, and they turn around to see if such is the case. This is an effect of Bromine, and those of you who are familiar with Bromide of Potassium will recognize whence it gets its anxiety. The vertigo is relieved by nose-bleed, showing at once that it is congestive in character. Another symptom showing you that there is congestion under Bromine is this: After dinner, there is a sensation deep in the brain as though a fit of apoplexy were impending. The patient feels as if he would lose his senses. The Iodine mental condition is more marked than that of Bromine. It is a decided erethism, during which the patient is very excitable, and restless, moving about from place to place, now sitting here, now sitting there, he fears that every little occurrence will end seriously. In his anxiety, he shuns everyone, even his doctor. He has a great dread of people. At times, he becomes quite excited and delirious, with vertigo, red face and anxiety. Next the lymphatic system. Like all the other members of this group, Bromine attacks the glands, and causes enlargement and induration of the glands. Hence it is called for in scrofulosis. It is particularly suited to scrofulous patients, children usually, when the parotid gland or glands are indurated, when there is a tendency to suppuration with excoriating discharge, and persistent hardness of the gland around the opening, and undue amount of warmth or heat in the gland. I have merely mentioned the parotid gland for purpose of illustration. Bromine also affects the mammary gland, for cancer of which it has been a very useful remedy. You may perhaps remember that I told you the other day, that it was similar to CARBO ANIMALIS. Like Carbo animalis, it has induration of the glands in the axilla with burning pains. But Bromine also has cutting pains. The breast is hard and on palpation, a dull subdued sort of throbbing may be felt in it. Sometimes, the drawing or cutting is so marked that it feels as if a string were pulling from the gland into the axilla. The testicles are acted upon by Bromine. We find them swollen, hard and perfectly smooth. The pain is worse from jarring. The glands are unduly warm and hot. You will find that glandular affections yield to Bromine especially in persons of light complexion, with fair skin and light blue eyes. I mention this symptom here to make use of it in a few moments as a symptom of comparative value. I do not mean to say that every scrofulous child with blue eyes must have Bromine, but I do mean that this symptom is of use to enable us to distinguish Bromine from the other halogens. The tonsils, too, are affected in Bromine. Thus we find them deep red and swollen and covered with a network of dilated bloodvessels. They are worse when swallowing and are accompanied usually with swelling of the glands externally. There is a feeling of rawness in the throat with this tonsillitis. This, too, as you know, is common enough in scrofulous children. There is a strong temptation to excise the tonsils, but this is not good practice, for you can often cure this trouble by internal medication. In some cases, this enlargement of the tonsils may be looked upon as a forerunner of tuberculosis. We find Bromine indicated in enlargement of another gland, namely the thyroid gland, and curing what has been termed bronchocele or goitre. We next have to speak of Bromine in its action on mucous membranes. Beginning with the nose, we find that it is useful in coryza or in nasal catarrh, when the discharge is profuse, watery, and excoriating. The nostrils, alternately, seem to be stopped up. There is a peculiar headache associated with this coryza, a heavy pressure in the forehead which seems to be pushing the brain down and out at the root of the nose. The nose is very sore inside and also around the alae. This is a decidedly smarting soreness just such as you would expect the fumes of ' Bromine to make. Later, ulcers form in the nose, with the escape of crusts or scabs which are blown out and which are always bloody. Every attempt to wipe the nose is followed by a discharge of crusts and blood. This you know is common enough with scrofulous children. Coming now to the throat and lungs, we find Bromine indicated in spasm of the glottis, sometimes called laryngismus stridulus. This is a very difficult disease to cure. It is often central in its origin. It commences by sudden closure of the glottis. The child turns blue in the face, and its body becomes convulsed. One spell ceases only to be followed by another. In the second stage, general convulsions appear, followed by emaciation. The trouble may be reflex from dentition, or from indigestion or from enlargement of the thymus gland. If it can be found to be the result of enlargement of the thymus gland, evidently then IODINE would be indicated. When it has been caused by retarded dentition, I think that CALCAREA PHOSPHORICA promises better than anything else. Dr. Dunham records a case that had been given up by an allopathic physician, but knowing the symptoms of Chlorine, which above all other remedies will produce this spasm of the glottis, he generated some Chlorine and allowed the child to inhale the fumes, with almost instantaneous relief and final cure. All the halogens are useful in this condition, but Chlorine is here the best of them all. Their symptoms differ but little so far as the local symptoms are concerned. We may also think of SAMBUCUS, ANTIMONIUM TARTARICUM, BELLADONNA, LACHESIS, ARSENICUM,, and in some cases, PHOSPHORUS. LACHESIS is particularly indicated when the patient awakens from sleep with it. IGNATIA, whenever a cross word or correcting the child brings on the spasm. Another remedy is CUPRUM, especially when the spasms are general and the child clenches its thumbs. IPECACUANHA may be of some use in some cases, but I have no confidence in it. Nor have I in SAMBUCUS, because under Sambucus, I think the trouble is more in the chest, whereas with Cuprum, the halogens, Calcarea phos., Lachesis and Belladonna, the trouble is in the larynx itself. This spasm of the glottis often comes in the course of croup, in which disease Bromine may be the remedy when inspiration seems to be exceedingly difficult; the child is suddenly aroused from sleep as if choking. These symptoms are at least relieved by a drink of water, which seems to quiet the spasmodic condition. In membranous croup Bromine is indicated by the following symptoms in addition to the spasm already referred to: The child has at first a deep, rough voice, which, in the evening, amounts almost to aphonia. The child cries with a hoarse, husky voice. The membrane seems to come up from the larynx into the throat. Every inspiration seems to provoke cough, especially every deep inspiration. Breathing is hoarse, rasping and whistling, as though the child were breathing through a sponge or through some loose metallic substance which is vibrating. This is caused by the vibration of membrane as it is deposited more or less uniformly over the interior of the larynx. Later, there is rattling in the larynx. When the child coughs it seems as if the larynx were full of loose mucus. ANTIMONIUM TARTARICUM is very similar to Bromine, in croup. It has rattling and wheezing extending down the trachea as well as in the larynx. Now I wish to say a few words about other remedies in connection with croup, especially concerning ACONITE, HEPAR, SPONGIA and KAOLIN. KAOLIN is a kind of porcelain-clay, a combination of lime and silica, and has proved very useful in membranous croup. The relation which these remedies hold is this : ACONITE is useful in the beginning of croup, whether spasmodic, catarrhal or membranous. It is indicated by the child suddenly arousing from sleep as if it were smothering. There is great restlessness. The skin is hot. There must be some anxiety present. Breathing is dry. There is no sound of mucus. Pretty soon the child seems better and falls asleep and then will be aroused again. Aconite is especially indicated in these cases if these symptoms have followed exposure to dry, cold winds. Do not stop your remedy too soon. If you do, while the child will be better in the morning the symptoms will return with renewed violence the next night, and before you know it the mucous membrane of the larynx and trachea will take on fibrinous exudation and you lose your patient. You will need to change to SPONGIA when you have these symptoms present: Breathing during inspiration is hard and harsh, as though the child was breathing through a sponge. The cough has a decidedly hard barking, ringing, sound. The sputum is scanty as yet. Spongia follows Aconite, especially after exposure to dry, cold winds, and in light-complexioned children with blue eyes. The symptoms are usually worse before midnight. Suppose this fails you, then you may have recourse to HEPAR SULPHURIS CALCAREA. HEPAR usually has its symptoms worse after midnight and towards morning. The cough has the same harsh, croupy sound, but there is a great deal of moisture with it. That is the indication for Hepar. It, too, is worse from exposure to dry, cold winds. Sometimes all these drugs fail and we have to resort to the halogens, especially to Bromine and Iodine. I have already given you the symptoms of Bromine; let me tell you how to distinguish it from Iodine. IODINE is particularly indicated after the failure of Hepar, when the membrane has formed ; inspiration is exceedingly difficult, both from spasm of the throat and occlusion of the lumen of the larynx by the membranous formation. Inspiration is wave-like, or in jerks. The cough is moist but harsh, just as you found under Hepar. The voice ig almost extinct from the hoarseness. The. child grasps its throat to relieve the pressure, throws its head far back so as to straighten the route from the mouth to the lungs and favor the passage of air. It is particularly worse in the morning. Iodine is especially adapted to dark-complexioned children with dark hair and eyes. This in itself is a great distinction between Iodine and Bromine. That is why I spoke of the use of Bromine in light-complexioned children, because this fact has been proven to be a good distinction between these two drugs, and hence, as a comparative symptom, is one of great value to you. Iodine is particularly adapted to cases that come from damp weather. Long-continued damp cold weather will produce just such a cough as Iodine will cure. Do not change your remedy in these cases too often. Do not change your remedy on account of alarming symptoms that spring up, UNLESS YOU ARE CERTAIN THAT THEY INDICATE A CHANGE. KAOLIN has been used successfully for membranous croup even when the membrane dips down deep into the trachea. There is extreme soreness of the chest. The patient does not want anything to touch him. He will not permit you to use steam or hot cloths, because the chest is so sore. Returning to the study of Bromine we find it useful in affections of the lungs. It is indicated in asthma, when the patient feels as if he could not get air enough into his lungs, consequently he breathes very deeply. The explanation of this lies not only in the lungs, but also in the constriction of the glottis. Although the patient expands his chest well, air does not go in on account of the narrowness of the opening in the larynx. It is especially indicated in asthma coming on, at or near the seashore. We also find Bromine useful in pneumonia, particularly when it affects the lower lobe of the right lung, hence lobar pneumonia. We often find nose-bleed as a concomitant symptom when Bromine is indicated in these cases. The patient also has the symptom just mentioned under asthma, "seems as if he could not get enough air into the chest;" while there seems to be plenty of mucus, the patient does not appear to be able to expectorate it. We also find Bromine indicated in tuberculosis of the lungs, particularly when the tubercular deposit is more manifest in the right lung. The patient suffers frequently from congestion of the head and chest, which is relieved by nose-bleed. Notice how often that symptom occurs under Bromine. There is also pain in tha mammary region going up into the axilla. The eyes seem to be affected along with the chest symptoms giving rise to a chronic conjunctivitis. Bromine produces a very characteristic picture of uncomplicated hypertrophy of the heart, by which I mean, muscular enlargement without valvular lesion. The patient finds it difficult to exert himself on account of the oppression about the heart. He has palpitation when he begins to move and when he gets up from a sitting to a standing posture. The pulse is full, hard and rather slow, which is just the character that belongs to an over-active enlarged heart. It has cured many cases of this hypertrophy of the heart. I think it was Dr. Thayer, of Boston, who cured many cases of this trouble with Bromine. It may also be used in cardiac asthma, especially when the asthmatic paroxysms are better at sea than on land. (Note: here Professor Farrington refers on the previous page to the asthma of Bromine, as coming on at or near the seashore, and here he speaks of cardiac asthma better on sea than on land. Both may be right, for being AT SEA differs from being AT THE SEASHORE, where you may have land breezes.) You here find Bromine similar to ACONITE, but it lacks the anxiety of that remedy. Both remedies are suited to uncomplicated cardiac hypertrophy, but Aconite has fear and anxiety. The patient fears that he will drop dead in the street. It is also similar to ARNICA and RHUS TOX., both of which remedies have uncomplicated hypertrophy of the heart from over-exertion. Now compare Iodine with Bromine in chest affections. Iodine is also indicated in pneumonia, more so perhaps than Bromine. It is especially useful when the disease localizes itself, that is when the plastic exudation commences. There is a decided cough with great dyspnoea, difficulty in breathing, as though the chest would not expand (and here the trouble is situated in the chest itself), and blood-streaked sputum. You will find some portions of the lungs beginning to solidify. You may also give it later in the disease, after the stage of hepatization, in the stage of resolution, when instead of absorption and expectoration of the exudate, slow suppuration appears with hectic fever and emaciation ; the patient feels better in the cool open air than he does in the warm room. Phthisis pulmonalis sometimes calls for Iodine. You here find it indicated in young persons who grow too rapidly, who are subject to frequent congestion of the chest, who are rather emaciated, and who suffer from dry cough, which seems to be excited by tickling all over the chest. The patient cannot bear the warm room. Expectoration is tough and blood-streaked. There is a well-marked feeling of weakness in the chest, particularly on going up stairs. The patient has a very good appetite, and is relieved by eating. The nearest remedy to Iodine here is PHOSPHORUS, which is also well adapted to phthisis in the rapidly-growing young. Iodine is also indicated in enlargement of the heart, whether or not accompanied by disease of the valvular structures. There is palpitation of the heart, particularly after any manual labor. It is suited especially to dark-complexioned persons, with dark hair, etc. The heart feels as if it were being squeezed by a firm hand. At other times, there is excessive weakness in the chest, with "goneness" or exhausted feeling. The patient can scarcely talk or breathe, so weak does he feel. This shows that Iodine acts on the connective tissue. In valvular affections, there is a purring feeling over the heart, just such a sensation as you get when stroking a cat. SPIGELIA has that same purring, vibrating feeling over the region of the heart. Now let me give you the difference between Iodine and Bromine in scrofulous affections. Iodine causes induration of the glands more marked than does Bromine. They are hard, large and usually painless. There is a characteristic of Iodine which is universal, and that characteristic is torpidity and sluggishness. The very indolence of the disease is suggestive of Iodine. It also produces atrophy of the glands. The mammae waste away and the testicles dwindle. We find it indicated in scrofulosis of children, when they emaciate rapidly despite a ravenous appetite. They are hungry all the time. They cry for their dinner, they feel better while eating, and yet they do not gain any flesh. They are always better in the open air and worse from any confinement in the warm room. The mesenteric glands are enlarged and you have what is known as tabes mesenterica. This indicates Iodine, particularly when you have these other symptoms present together with excessive mental irritability. We find Iodine causing a rather singular diarrhoea. In such cases the spleen is enlarged, quite hard, and very sensitive to the touch. The liver, too, must be affected, because the stools are whitish; sometimes they are wheylike. This last symptom you will often find connected with obscure disease of the pancreas. Iodine has such an affinity for glandular structures that it, no doubt, attacks the pancreas as well as other glands. We also find Iodine affecting the ovaries. It is indicated in ovarian dropsy. In such cases as this, the single fact that Iodine has helped in ovarian dropsy, must not lead you to give Iodine in every case of that trouble. Other remedies have proved themselves useful. APIS, COLOCYNTH and other drugs, have cured cases, and they have sometimes failed. If the whole picture of the patient calls for Iodine it is your duty to give that drug, but not unless such is the case. It must be given for weeks or months before it will bring about absorption of the tumor. We also find Iodine indicated in cancer of the uterus, particularly with profuse haemorrhages. The leucorrhoea is characteristic, being yellowish and very corrosive. This, in conjunction with the other Iodine symptoms, sallow, tawny skin, ravenous appetite, etc., makes Iodine the remedy which will relieve many cases and cure some. In this connection we have other remedies to remember, and notably among these, HYDRASTIS, which has cured epithelioma, and may be a remedy for uterine cancer. I have, however, had no personal success with it. It has been used both externally and internally, when indicated by symptoms which have already been given you in another lecture; especially has it marked goneness at the epigastrium, and palpitation after every motion. There is a substance, or remedy, known as LAPIS ALBUS. It is one of Grauvogl's remedies. He, at one time, went to a certain spring, the waters of which, it was claimed, would cure tuberculosis, scrofulosis, and even cancer. On examining the spring Grauvogl noticed that the water had gradually worn a crevice in the rocks. He took away a piece of this rock over which the water was falling, and made triturations of it. With this he cured several cases of goitre, and also several cases of scirrhus. This rock has been analyzed, but the analyses differ so that I hardly know which one to, recommend. Both Iodine and Bromine are of some use in ulcers. Iodine, for instance, is useful in ulcers rather of a scrofulous form, with spongy edges, and discharges of a bloody, ichorous, or even purulent character. Now, Bromine is somewhat similar. It is useful in ulcers which have a carrionlike odor, with threatening gangrene. The surrounding skin has a greenish-yellow hue. That is the form of ulcer to which Bromine is especially adapted. When Iodine has been abused, and has produced symptoms, Hepar is the proper antidote. Now, a few words about CHLORINE. I do not know much about it as a medicine. It may be given in a crude form by allowing the gas to be absorbed by ice-cold water, and thus it may be prepared for the cases to be enumerated. Chlorine, and in fact all its combinations, seem to have a special affinity for mucous membranes. Hence we find it indicated in catarrhs. Chlorine produces a watery discharge from the nose, with thin, excoriating coryza, making the nose, both inside and about the aláe, sore. On examining the mouth, you find it, too, affected with a low grade of inflammation. Chlorine here produces small, putrid-smelling ulcers. These are aphthous in character. You find the mouth filled with yellowish-white aphthae. Chlorine is indicated in scorbutic states of the blood; and so are all the chlorides. We find under Natrum mur. and Kali chloricum the same kind of stomacace, with excessive fïetor of the breath. We find Chlorine also acting on the nervous system, probably through the blood. It is indicated in typhoid conditions; the patient has a fear of becoming crazy, or that he will lose his senses. He is very forgetful; he cannot remember names, etc. There is a constant fear of some impending disease. There is also, under Chlorine, a peculiar painful sensation in the vertex; this sensation passing down the left side of the body. This is a precursor of typhoid fever. It is worse after eating. In such cases, Chlorine will often modify the fever. Chlorine is also indicated in impotence. When this impotence has been produced by inhalations of the fumes of Chlorine, Lycopodium is the proper antidote. Of the use of Chlorine in spasm of the glottis, I have already spoken.

pmt&Motimm muß Salish-Kootenäi CoTiinimity College ISSN:05î*B 1802 Box 1020 - Ronan, MT 59864 OF THE FLATHEAD INDIAN RESERVATION, WESTERN MONTANA VOLUME 11 NUMBER 16 NEW MOON OF THE WANDERING JANUARY 1,I983 Historic luncheon brings note of peace, optimism PABLO - Representatives from five jurisdictions met last month in Poison at a meeting they later described as historic and astonishing. The occasion was a luncheon December 13 hosted by the Tribes to mark the end of a ten-year struggle over lakeshore rights. The Tribes won the court battle, known as the Namen case, on November 2, when the U.S. Supreme Court declined to review the case. The decision affirmed once and for all that the Tribes does have regulatory authority over land below the high-water mark of the south half of Flathead Lake, according to treaty provisions. The ruling also helped disprove the theory that Congress intended to disestablish the Flathead Reservation when it opened the area up to non-Indian homesteading in the early 1900s. Representing the state of Montana was Governor Ted Schwinden, who braved a winter storm to drive over from Quarterly is next week The year's first quarterly meeting will be January 7, in the Council chambers in Pablo. The meeting will begin around 9 a.nx, and lunch will be served. Helena, and Senator Jean Turnage. Six Tribal councilmen, including Chairman Tom Pablo, and numerous employees from county and city offices rounded out the audience. Poison Mayor John Dowdall called the meeting "an astonishing thing". Others expressed the hope that it would open an era of better communications between all of the governments involved with the Reservation ~ Tribal, state, county, city, and federal (BIA). "The time has really come for common sense to prevail," Shoreline Protection Board member Gem Mercer said. The board will be implementing the Tribes' Shoreline Protection Ordinance 64A. Jim Steele, Tribal councilman, expressed optimism for the future, saying he felt the current Tribal Council was "a progressive one". Steele recently resigned from the board to serve as temporary coordinator of the implementation process. Tribal attorney Evelyn Stevenson summed things up saying, "We're all looking to save Flathead Lake." She said she hoped meetings such as this one would "help overcome the element of fear" that has characterized Tribal-non-Tribal relations in the past The luncheon, prepared by the Flathead Lake Senior Citizens, ended on a touching note (you should pardon the pun) when Executive Tribal Secretary Fred Houle, Jr., (Concludes on the next page) Wallet-sized reference: 1983 calendar and Tribal phone directory Centerfold

Of 10 major demonstration projects aimed at enhancing the quality of health care and improving the efficiency of health care delivery in Medicare's fee-for-service program, most do not reduce Medicare spending, says a new report by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO).
CBO evaluated the outcomes of 10 demonstration projects that focused on disease management and care coordination or value-based payment. In nearly every program involving disease management and care coordination, spending was either unchanged or increased relative to the spending that would have occurred in the absence of the program, when the fees paid to the participating organizations were considered.
Results from demonstrations of value-based payment systems were mixed. In 1 of the 4 demonstrations examined, Medicare made bundled payments that covered all hospital and physician services for heart bypass surgeries. Medicare's spending for those services was reduced by about 10% under the demonstration. Other demonstrations of value-based payment appear to have produced little or no savings for Medicare.
The report also provides several lessons learned. Programs that collected timely data on when their patients' health problems developed or became exacerbated and where they were treated seemed better able to coordinate and manage their patients' care. Furthermore, programs that smoothed transitions (for example, by providing additional education and support to patients moving from a hospital to a nursing facility or between a primary care provider and a specialist) tended to have fewer hospital admissions.
Substantial changes to payment and health care delivery systems will probably be necessary for programs involving disease management and care coordination or value-based payment to significantly reduce spending and either maintain or improve the quality of care provided to patients, CBO says.

Memphis Grizzlies 2014-2015 News and Updates
5/1/15 - The good news for the Memphis Grizzlies is that they have secured a spot in the conference semifinals, and they played exceptionally well in the first round to boot. Unfortunately, their opponent in the second round is going to be the Golden State Warriors, who are the leading team in the entire league. The Memphis Grizzlies only took one loss, on April 27th, so it seems they are at the top of their game, but the Warriors are going to be their biggest challenge yet. We will get a feel for how the second round will play out on May 3rd at the first match. The Grizzlies are also playing at a court disadvantage, so they certainly have their work cut out for them if they want to advance to the conference finals.
4/20/15 - Continuing their domination of the Portland Trail Blazers that stretches back to their 4-0 regular season series sweep, the Memphis Grizzlies took the first game of their opening round playoff matchup, 100-86. The Blazers couldn't get a foothold early against the Grizzlies' aggressive defense, posting only 39 points in the first half compared with 58 for Memphis. Backup point guard Beno Udrih showed the playoff mettle he developed during his days in San Antonio, coming off the bench to pour in 20 points in just 24 minutes of play. Zach Randolph added 16 and 11 rebounds, and Marc Gasol chipped in 15 and 11 as the Grizz dominated the paint en route to the Game One win. Game Two is Wednesday night at the FedEx Forum and tickets are on sale now!
… more
4/13/15 - Down to the final night of an 82-game season, the Memphis Grizzlies know they will be in the playoffs, and they know they'll be starting out on the road. Depending on the outcome of the Rockets' and Grizzlies' final games, Memphis can finish either fifth of sixth place in the West, potentially placing them in a matchup with either the L.A. Clippers or Portland Trail Blazers. On the outside, they could possibly even see San Antonio in the first round, but one thing is for sure—their twin towers in Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph will be ready for the challenge regardless of the opposition. Playoff tickets are on sale now! Postseason action begins on Saturday, April 18th. Get your seats at the FedEx Forum starting at $38!
4/8/15 - The Memphis Grizzlies, currently holding down second place in the Southwest Division and third place in the conference, are a game behind resurgent Houston with five games left to play. Both the Grizz and Houston have similar finishes to their schedule – three games against .500 or better opponents, and four against other Western Conference teams.
3/25/15 - This week, the Memphis Grizzlies officially joined golden State as playoff qualifiers in the NBA's Western Conference. The Grizzlies, winners of their last three, still have yet to clinch the Southwest Division, however, with Houston still a very close 2 ½ games behind.
3/17/15 - The Memphis Grizzlies are aiming to secure a three-game winning streak when they face the Pistons on Tuesday, March 17. The last time the two teams met was in November, where the Grizzlies defeated the Pistons 95-88. With the Grizzlies coming off of a 96-83 victory over the Bucks on March 14, and a 92-81 defeat of the Nuggets on the 16, they look good to secure the win, especially as Detroit is currently in a 10-game losing streak. However, the Pistons will be looking for revenge, especially as their earlier loss to the Grizzlies started another double-digit losing streak. The Grizzlies will also be looking to maintain their position as top in the Southwest Division, with a current season record of 47-20. Tickets to the game against the Pistons are still available, starting at $2.
3/11/15 - With the end of the season in sight, the Memphis Grizzlies are well placed for a deep run in the postseason this season. Currently second in the overall Western Conference, and leading the meat-grinder that is the Southwest Division – where every team is over .500 – by two games over Houston, the Grizzlies have to avoid getting complacent down the stretch.
3/4/15 - The Memphis Grizzlies have been unable to make up any conference ground on West leading Golden State recently. The Grizzlies, who dropped their last outing, remain 4 ½ games behind the Warriors, but a game and a half ahead of Southwest Division second place club Houston.
2/25/15 - Winners of their last two, on the road against Portland and the L.A. Clippers, the Memphis Grizzlies continue to put pressure on Western Conference leader Golden State in the race for the conference's top seed. The Grizz are just 3 ½ games behind Golden State in the overall conference standings.
2/19/15 - Starting the two-month homestretch to the playoffs, the Memphis Grizzlies take to the road and a date this weekend in Portland. The Grizzlies are still the top team in the Southwest Division, and in the larger conference picture, are three games ahead of the Trail Blazers and four behind top seed Golden State.
2/4/15 - With a seven game win streak going, the Memphis Grizzlies are the hottest team in the Western Conference at the moment. The Grizzlies lead the Southwest Division by three games over Houston, and are second overall in the West, just 2 ½ games behind Golden State.
1/28/15 - Winners of eight of their last nine games, the Memphis Grizzlies have put a small cushion between themselves and their nearest competitor. The Grizzlies, winners of their last three as well, have opened a game and a half lead on Houston and are 2 ½ games up on Dallas.
1/21/15 - Even though they lost their last game, the Memphis Grizzlies are back atop the Southwest Division. The Grizz have company at the top, though; they're a half game in front of both Houston and Dallas (all three teams have 29 wins), and three games ahead of fourth place San Antonio.
1/14/15 - After spending much of the season as the top team in the Southwest Division, the Memphis Grizzlies were finally surpassed. Now second in the division to Houston, the Grizz also have to look over their shoulders as well, as Dallas is in a virtual tie with them as well.
1/7/15 - While the Memphis Grizzlies have blazed a hot streak through the league out of the gate, they still have the third best record in the conference. The Grizz, at 25-9, trail Golden State (27-5) and Portland (27-8) in the race for best record in the conference.
12/23/14 - The Memphis Grizzlies have hit a tough spot in their schedule. Having dropped three straight after a six game winning streak, the Grizzlies will be looking to gain some ground the day after Christmas with a game against second-place Houston.
12/17/14 - Was it a statement win? The Memphis Grizzlies took care of business Tuesday night, handing visiting Golden State just their third loss. The Grizzlies relied on a deep bench to take over the game in the second quarter and hold on for a 105-98 win.
12/10/14 - The Memphis Grizzlies continue to be one of the hottest teams in the NBA. At 17-4, they stand atop the Southwest Division, a half game in front of Houston and two games ahead of San Antonio and Dallas; along with Portland from the Northwest Division, they also have the second-best record in the league.
12/3/14 - The Memphis Grizzlies continue to be one of the hottest teams in the NBA, even in a division where four of the five teams are playing over-.700 ball. The Grizzlies' five game winning streak, however, is second in length to San Antonio's eight game streak.
11/19/14 - It's no surprise that the Memphis Grizzlies are the first NBA squad to 10 wins this season. The Grizz, who have only lost once this season, are just a single game ahead of Houston and two ahead of Dallas in the Southwest Division.
11/12/14 - How are the 7-1 Memphis Grizzlies getting it done this season? Look at the defense. The Grizz are tops in the Association at the moment in team defense, allowing just 89.1 points per game on average.
10/29/14 - The Memphis Grizzlies won their first season opener in thirteen years, hosting the Minnesota Timberwolves at the FedEx Forum. The 105-101 score marked and end to the opening night drought that the Grizzlies have had since October of 2000 and relocating from Seattle. Marc Gasol got a career best of 32 points, leading the team to victory by shooting 12-of-17 shots and assisting with nine rebounds in his 37 minutes of game play. Other high scorers of the game included Zach Randolph and Mike Conley who scored 25 and 16 points, respectively. Memphis had 43-of-82 with Gasol and Randolph having a combined 24-of-33 of that. Upcoming games promise to be just as exciting as the Grizzlies face off against other amazing teams with tickets selling for as little as $8.
8/26/14 – The 2014-2015 Memphis Grizzlies schedule recently released, and it's filled with must-watch matches from start to finish! The Grizz will tip-off their season at home, against Minnesota on Oct. 29. Memphis plays five of their first seven games on the road, before returning to FedEx Forum for a long homestand that features Kobe Bryant and the Lakers (Nov. 11), Dwight Howard and the Rockets (Nov. 17) and Blake Griffin and the Clippers (Nov. 23). See the Memphis-Oklahoma City rivalry renewed when Kevin Durant and the Thunder visit on Jan. 31 and Apr. 3. Score your Memphis Grizzlies tickets today and see if this squad can take it to the top of the West!
The Memphis Grizzlies proved that they are among the best in the West, when their squad is healthy. With the injury to Marc Gasol, the Grizzlies struggled on the year and slipped into the postseason—the franchise's fourth straight appearance—in the eleventh hour. Memphis was unfavorably pitted against OKC, and although they pushed the Thunder to seven games, the Grizzlies ultimately exited in the first round. Can Memphis score a return trip to the Western Conference Finals in 2015? The franchise made a few roster moves that will certainly further the Grizz's chances this year.
Memphis has kept their core in tact by securing Zach Randoph and Beno Udrih for more years to come. They added talent in the draft with Jordan Adams and Jarnell Stokes, but no acquisition for this small-market franchise is as big as scoring Vince Carter in free agency. This will make the Grizzlies as formidable as ever heading in to the highly anticipated 2014-2015 season. Don't miss the return of a super-talented Grizzlies squad who added veteran Carter and drafted young talent to provide instant offense off the bench! Take in the action at FedEx Forum with Memphis Grizzlies tickets today.
2013-2014 Season
5/2/14 - If the Memphis Grizzlies advance to the second round of the playoffs over Oklahoma City, they will do it without a key player. The league announced that Grizz forward Zach Randolph will be suspended for Game 7, after Randolph elbowed, then hit Thunder center Steven Adams in the fourth quarter of their 104-84 loss to OKC. The loss of Randolph takes a key weapon away from the Grizzlies at a critical point, as he had been averaging a team high 18.2 points per game in the series; in Game 6, he accounted for 16 points (one of just four Grizzlies who scored in double figures), eight rebounds, an assist and a steal. Marc Gasol led the Grizzlies' scoring effort in the loss with 17 points.
4/18/14 - In a final game of the season battle for seeding, the Memphis Grizzlies edged Dallas by one, 106-105 in an overtime battle at FedEx Forum, thereby setting up a matchup with Oklahoma City and sending Dallas to meet the West's top seed in San Antonio. Zach Randolph had a strong outing, recording a double-double of team highs in points (27) and rebounds (14); Mike Conley was not far behind statistically, adding 22 points, five assists, four rebounds, and a pair of steals. Marc Gasol nearly had a triple-double, scoring 19 points, nine rebounds and nine assists, with a pair of steals and a blocked shot; Tony Allen was the top reserve for the Grizzlies, chipping in with 13 points, seven boards, a pair of assists and a steal. The Grizzlies held advantages in rebounding (48-39) and points in the paint (58-42) over Dallas.
4/14/14 - Go figure. After falling to San Antonio on April 6, 112-92, the Memphis Grizzlies bounced back in a major way to squeeze past Miami, 107-102, on April 9 at the FedEx Forum. The Grizz got a trio of 20 point performances in this key win, which kept them one game back of Dallas for the final Western Conference playoff slot. Mike Conley was the leading scorer for the Grizzlies with 26 points, while Zach Randolph's 25 (combined with 11 rebounds) was not far behind. Marc Gasol was the third Grizzly with 20 points, scoring that amount exactly while pulling down 14 boards for his own double-double. Courtney Lee was the other Memphis player to break into double digit scoring, adding 18 points.
4/7/14 - With just seven games remaining, and in eighth position in the Western Conference overall standings (tied with Dallas but owning the tiebreaker with the Mavericks), the Memphis Grizzlies can ill afford to lose games to teams under them in the standings. Yet, that's what happened on April 2, when the Grizzlies traveled up to Minneapolis to take on the Minnesota Timberwolves, and lost 102-88. It was a lackluster performance statistically for the Grizz, as only one player – center Marc Gasol, with 18 – exceeded the 15 point mark for Memphis; just two other players, Courtney Lee with 14 and Ed Davis with 10 in a reserve role, rose into the double digits in scoring. High rebounder was Gasol, who pulled down eight boards; while guard Mike Conley dished out eight assists for the Grizzlies.
3/28/14 - Livin' on the edge, these Memphis Grizzlies. Clinging precariously to a playoff spot with just 11 games left (seventh place in the West, half a game up on Phoenix and a full game up on Dallas), the Grizz have won their last three in a row, including a 91-87 victory on the road over Utah. Zach Randolph was the BMOC (big man on court) for the Grizzlies, combining 22 points and 13 boards, while Mike Conley combined 19 points and six assists, and Marc Gasol added 18 points, seven rebounds, four assists and a pair of steals. Another difference maker: The Grizzlies were nearly perfect from the free throw line, making 15 of 16 for the night.
3/21/14 - A pair of 20-and-10 double-doubles – 21 points and 11 rebounds from Zach Randolph, with 20 points and 10 rebounds from Marc Gasol – sparked the Memphis Grizzlies to a 96-86 victory over Utah earlier in the week, giving the team their eighth straight win at the FedEx Forum. Gasol also swatted away four shots, while Mike Conley contributed 18 points, seven assists, and three steals to help keep the Grizz in the mix for one of the Western Conference's final two playoff slots. The Grizzlies are currently in seventh place, just .003 ahead of division mates Dallas in the playoff race.
3/14/14 - Leaving the comforts of FedEx Forum, where they have won seven straight, the Memphis Grizzlies took on Southwest Division mates New Orleans on March 12, and needed a last second basket from Mike Conley to emerge with a 90-88 win over the Pelicans, and remain in contention for a Western Conference playoff spot. Conley led the Grizz with 16 points for the evening, while center Marc Gasol put up 15 points, nine rebounds and four assists. Also with nine rebounds, to go along with 13 points, was Zach Randolph, while Tony Allen also scored 13 coming off the bench.
3/10/14 - The Memphis Grizzlies just cannot pick up any ground on the top eight teams in the West, and with just over 20 games to go, the Grizzlies have very little margin for error if they expect to be in the Western Conference mix come playoff time. Case in point: dropping their last game 103-94 to Brooklyn, allowing the Nets to move one game over .500. Among their starters against the Nets, only center Marc Gasol was able to break through into double figures, with 18 points to go along with seven rebounds. The bulk of the Grizzlies' scoring came off the bench, with five reserves in double digits, led by Jon Leuer's 19.
3/3/14 - The Gasol brothers faced off once again on February 26, with the Memphis Gasol (Marc) victorious over his brother (Pau), 108-103 at the FedEx Forum near the banks of the Mississippi River. Marc (14 points, 12 rebounds, five assists, two blocks) was outscored by Pau (17 points, along with 10 boards) for the game, while Grizzlies guard Courtney Lee led the Grizzlies in scoring with 18 points. Tony Allen chipped in 17 points off the bench in the winning effort.
2/21/14 - Despite sitting just a game outside the playoff contenders, the Memphis Grizzlies ultimately stood pat at the league trading deadline on February 20. A deadline deal with the Minnesota Timberwolves fell through, which would have involved Grizzlies Tayshaun Prince and Tony Allen; and T'wolves Chase Budinger and J.J. Barea. Memphis came out of the break on a good note, holding New York's Carmelo Anthony to just 22 points in a 98-93 defeat of the Knicks. Former Ohio State Buckeye Mike Conley led the Grizz with 22 points of his own in the win.
2/11/14 - History of sorts was made by the Memphis Grizzlies last Saturday, as the Grizz attempted just one free throw in the entire game, a 79-96 defensive struggle against Atlanta. The lone attempt was by Courtney Lee, who sank it as part of his total of 14 for the game. Zach Randolph led the Grizzlies in scoring with 20 points, while Marc Gasol cleared a total of eight boards and also dished out seven assists. Memphis remains just three games out of the playoff picture in the West.
2/4/14 - Since December 21, the Memphis Grizzlies were the proud owners of the NBA's best record…then they headed into Oklahoma City on February 3 to take on white-hot Kevin Durant and the Thunder, and came up on the short end of a 86-77 loss to OKC. A contributing factor may have been the missing presence of point guard Mike Conley. The Ohio State product has been sidelined with a sprained right ankle and is being listed as day to day by the Grizz.
So far this season, the Grizz have picked up a win-one-lose-one pattern game in and game out. Last week Memphis fell to the Pacers (95-70) on the road, lengthening Indiana's undefeated start, and the week before they had a convincing victory over the Warriors (108-90). Tomorrow they have a chance to snap out of the hot and cold play, in one of the most anticipated games for Grizzlies fans this year. A potential win over the Toronto Raptors comes Nov 13, when forward Rudy Gay returns to "The Grindhouse" for the first time since being traded to Toronto. Gay was such an integral member of the team, fans may be conflicted whether to cheer or jeer upon his return—get in for as low as $1 to be there—unbeatable!
The Memphis Grizzlies ended the 2013 NBA Playoffs with a
Western Conference Finals
appearance; it was their best season ever. Returning players on the Grizzlies roster include Defensive Player of the Year Marc Gasol, Tony Allen, Mike Conley, and Zach Randolph. The four will be joined by Mike Miller from the Miami Heat who was the biggest signing for the Grizzlies this offseason. Memphis Grizzlies vs. Miami Heat tickets in early April are the most expensive this season at FedEx Forum, averaging $204. A Western Conference Semifinals rematch against the OKC Thunder mid-January is the second most expensive game at $184.
2012-2013 Season
3/26/13 - Memphis is one of the hottest teams in the League right now. The Grizzlies recently clinched their third consecutive Playoff berth and have won 9 of their last 13. The team announced today that
NBA Playoff
tickets for Home Games 1 and 2 of the First Round will go on sale Saturday, April 6. Memphis Grizzlies Playoff tickets for Home Games 1 and 2 are currently averaging $186 and $160 (in that order), one of the cheapest in the NBA. In comparison tickets to see the
Los Angeles Clippers
at FedEx Forum will cost you $155 on average; with the 3-4-5 seeds up for grabs, the Grizzlies will likely be playing for home-court advantage in the first round of the Playoffs.
3/4/13 - Since leaving Vancouver after the end of the 2000-01 season, the Memphis Grizzlies have quietly built themselves into one of the better squads in the
. Although falling back a bit after winning their first postseason series in 2010-11, the Grizzlies are in the middle of the Western Conference pack, behind the surprising LA Clippers. Defense has become the Grizzlies hallmark; the team is first overall in the NBA in points allowed at 89.5 points per game. However, the team is towards the bottom of the league in team offense, averaging just a little over 93 points per game in scoring. Forward Zech Randolph is leading the squad in points per game, while point guard Mike Conley (an Ohio State product) has been quite effective in getting the ball to the frontline scorers. Defensively, the Grizzlies are led by center Marc Gasol (brother of Lakers star Pau), who is averaging 1.7 blocks per game and is second in rebounding. Additional contributions are coming from guard Tony Allen, as well as Tayshaun Prince and Jerryd Bayless. Coach Lionel Hollins has been effective at turning the Grizzlies into a top defensive squad; the
Fedex Forum
faithful have to be hoping for a deep run in this season's playoffs.
Leading up to the 2013 NBA Playoffs, Memphis Grizzlies tickets average $62 at FedEx Forum in Tennessee. Key upcoming games on the Grizzlies schedule include matchups with the
Oklahoma City Thunder
Boston Celtics
Houston Rockets
San Antonio Spurs
, and Los Angeles Clippers. Basketball fans in Memphis looking to score cheap Grizzlies tickets will find tickets under $5 in the upper level at many home games. On the road, the Grizzlies tickets average $94, $32 more per ticket than at home. That difference in Memphis Grizzlies tickets prices is largely due to upcoming road games in huge basketball markets like Los Angeles and New York.

Jason Plummer was a 2012 Republican candidate who sought election to the U.S. House representing the 12th Congressional District of Illinois. Plummer is a Republican leader and business executive, who was his party's nominee for Lieutenant Governor of Illinois in 2010. Previously, he served as the Chairman of the Madison County Republican Party. He is currently the Vice President for Corporate Development for R.P. Lumber, a family-owned company.
Plummer is a graduate of the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.[1] While a student, he started a wireless internet company, to provide broadband access to rural communities in downstate Illinois.
Plummer has interned for U.S. Senator Peter Fitzgerald and for the Heritage Foundation, in Washington, D.C., and is presently an Intelligence Officer in the U.S. Navy Reserves.[1] He is also currently the Vice President for Corporate Development for R.P. Lumber, a family-owned company.[1]
Campaign themes
On his campaign website Plummer had 10 leading issues that he was concerned about. They were: [2]
- Jobs: Excerpt: "We need elected officials who understand how the economy works and how public policy impacts businesses and workers. We must create an environment where job creators are willing to take risks, businesses want to expand, and hardworking people can find quality jobs."
- Taxes: "The last thing the U.S. economy can afford is an increase in tax rates to further limit economic growth, which in effect will further cripple our ability to create new jobs. We need comprehensive tax reform that eliminates deductions for special interests and big corporations while small businesses and working people carry the burden. Our tax code should be simple, transparent, and most of all – fair."
- Spending: Excerpt: "We need real cuts in government spending and that's why I support a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution. We need leaders in Washington to make the tough decisions we elect them to make if we are going to solve our financial crisis."
- ObamaCare: Excerpt: "We must repeal ObamaCare and find reforms that keep the decision-making power with families and doctors, while reinvesting in research and development so that we can continue to improve the quality of care we receive."
- Tort Reform: "One of the single most important things we can do to grow our economy is end frivolous lawsuits. Businesses, workers, and doctors are being devastated by predatory litigation that is hurting our ability to grow businesses and create jobs. In order to improve healthcare and make our businesses and workers more competitive we need tort reform. Our quality of life will improve when we have an environment in which doctors and businesses feel that they have a fair shake and that they operate in a region conducive to growth and opportunity."
- Energy and Agriculture: Excerpt: "I will work to help rebuild our energy and agriculture industries in southern Illinois. We must create more quality jobs and bring back the many jobs that have left the area. Working to make it easier for these industries to thrive in the 12th District will help provide for local families and make our nation stronger."
- Military: "I am proud to serve as an Intelligence Officer in the Navy Reserves. We have the greatest military in the world and the 12th District is home to one of the largest, most important military installations in the world, Scott Air Force Base. I serve at Scott Air Force Base and I know how critical it is to our nation's military and to our region, as an economic engine with a $3 Billion annual impact. I will work hard to make sure that Scott Air Force Base continues to grow and that it will always be a critical factor in both our national defense and the local economy."
- Labor: Excerpt: "We need leaders who will work to protect our jobs by creating an environment that is conducive to job creation and business expansion. We must foster opportunities for qualified workers to find stable jobs that allow them to provide for their families. Our double-digit unemployment rate is unacceptable and I will fight to make sure that every man and woman in the 12th District that wants a quality job can find a quality job."
- 2nd Amendment: Excerpt: "Our right to bear arms is a constitutionally guaranteed right and one that must be vigorously defended. There will be no stronger supporter in Congress when it comes to gun owners' rights. I will fight to protect citizens from government overreach and I will work to expand right-to-carry laws. I am proud to have been endorsed by the NRA and ISRA in 2010 and proud to be a member of the oldest continuously operating gun club in the United States."
- Culture: "As a Christian, I am disturbed by the way elected officials and courts often try to circumvent the majority and neglect the traditional values of our great nation. I am pro-life. I believe we should work to protect the most vulnerable in our society. I believe marriage should be between a man and a woman. I believe that our courts should not dictate public policy or pervert laws and legislation. I believe we need leaders of strong moral fiber to keep America the greatest nation on earth. I am proud to have been endorsed by Illinois Federation for Right to Life, Eagle Forum, and numerous other pro-family and traditional values organizations in 2010."
Plummer lost to Democrat William Enyart in the 2012 election for the U.S. House, representing Illinois' 12th District. [3] Plummer ran as a Republican. [4]
