'The Real Housewives of Miami' finale: 90 minutes of 'oh, no you didn't'
You may have noticed that we've pretty much ignored "The Real Housewives of Miami" in its inaugural season. We know. That's not like us. We're usually all over the "Real Housewives" franchise. The thing is we have been watching, but there's so little to say about them.
These housewives have very few redeeming qualities. They don't come off smart, cultured or very complicated. And after watching the season, especially the finale, they don't seem to like each other much either. So, we don't feel so bad about how we feel.
So, how did the gals fare this season in our opinion? Let's go down the list.
Lea Black: She at least brought some drama to the group. She reminds us of New York's Ramona Singer in the way she has no filter between her brain and her mouth. And in the ongoing argument over invoicing Cristy for the charity, we side with Lea.
Marysol Patton: She could use a reality check now and then. Remember when she claimed in the premiere that she didn't get plastic surgery? In the finale, it was crazy that after all the preparation she put into the table for her cooking lesson with the ladies that they would end up making it an infomercial for her new husband's fancy astronaut food. Hello, Bravo cameras!
We have to give her props for bringing her mother, the witchy Elsa, into our lives. We're going to get months of traction out of "Marysol, I'm a woman of this century. I'm not a Victorian lady."
Adriana DeMoura-Sidi: This poor attention-starved thing. That pretty much sums up our feelings on her.
Alexia Echevaria: She seems pretty well-adjusted and doesn't mind that her sons will probably still be living with her when they're 35. We were a bit shocked that she runs a magazine and the model agent she brought her son to had no idea who she was. And now she wants to take the magazine national? She might want to deliver a stack downtown first.
Cristy Rice: Have you seen a more out of touch, delusional person in your life? Of course, you have. You watch "Real Housewives." We should rephrase that. Cristy is wildly self-important and honestly we couldn't stand a moment she was on-screen. She's just a nasty person to everyone. And when it comes to the charity tickets? She had no intention of donating anything to that charity and she's on-camera saying just that. And even if she didn't sit down and have dinner, she brought friends and should have felt like giving something, anything. Better yet, she should have just stayed home.
Larsa Pippen: How great was watching Marysol's mom read/ pick on her? The thing is she is immature, but people with money can be. But even more than that, there's not a deep thought that crosses her mind ever. And actually, that's what we thought Elsa really meant when she called her immature. She probably meant shallow.
What were your thoughts on the finale? Should the women come back for second season?

The mission of the TSPWG is to fully implement the SAFETEA-LU and MAP-21 safety planning factor and coordinate activities with the implementation and evaluation of Strategic Highway Safety Plans from a multimodal perspective on transportation safety planning.
Since the 1950s transportation professionals have been able to quantitatively assess project alternatives based on mobility, and more recently in terms of environmental impact. Limited means have existed to assess the safety performance of different design alternatives. To help address that gap, the Highway Safety Manual (HSM) was published by the American Association of State Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO), culminating ten years of research and development by an international team of safety experts, academics, and practitioners.
The HSM provides information and tools to support a science-based approach to quantifying safety, and is intended for use by state departments of transportation (DOT), counties, metropolitan and regional planning organizations, and cities across the Nation. By enabling transportation professionals to quantify the safety implications of decisions during the transportation project development process, the HSM allows for the explicit consideration of safety in transportation planning, design, operations, and maintenance.
As transportation planning legislation increasingly emphasizes the importance of safety in transportation planning, the HSM provides several tools to integrate safety into the planning process both at the system and project levels. At the system level, planners can use the HSM network screening methods to identify locations on the network likely to benefit from safety improvements or behavioral crash types that are overrepresented. The HSM also provides tools to diagnose the crash frequency and severity at these locations and to select appropriate countermeasures or safety improvements. Finally, the HSM provides methods for prioritizing expenditures to ensure the highest number of crash reductions from implementing safety improvements throughout the system.
Similarly, at the project level, the HSM provides tools for diagnosing crash frequency and severity, selecting countermeasures, and conducting an economic evaluation. In terms of corridor-specific plans, the HSM provides methods to estimate the change in safety performance across different concepts and approaches considered for a corridor. For example, the HSM can be used to assess the influence of the type and frequency of intersections, driveways, parking, or median types on crash frequency for an urban or suburban arterial.
A number of analysis tools and supporting documentation are available to support the use of HSM transportation planning. For further information on the HSM and related materials visit:
Statewide, regional, and local safety and transportation planners have joined forces to take a corridor approach to reducing fatalities and serious injuries. The Maryland State Highway Administration (SHA) recently updated the State's Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP). The Plan identifies six emphasis areas with one focused on highway infrastructure.
Source: Cambridge Systematics, Inc.
Mary Deitz, Chief of Regional and Intermodal Planning Division at SHA, and Bala Akundi from the Baltimore Metropolitan Council (BMC), co-lead the infrastructure emphasis area. One of the key infrastructure strategies for reducing fatalities and serious injuries is the development of a corridor program targeting safety improvements in priority corridors. The improvements address all roadway users, including pedestrians, bicycles, and motorists. Potential issues and solutions are first identified through a comprehensive roadway safety audit, and then addressed by a team, including a cross section of traffic safety, planning, highway design, education, and enforcement professionals. While safety is always being evaluated and enhanced on Maryland roadways, the corridor concept develops a multidisciplinary approach that facilitates a number of engineering teams and funding areas working together simultaneously.
Maryland is currently conducting a pilot test of the concept along MD 26, which links to a local roadway within the City of Baltimore. As part of the pilot, a corridor task force is meeting monthly to discuss key issues, relevant data, and appropriate infrastructure, education, and enforcement countermeasures for the corridor.
One of the first major tasks is to evaluate bus stop locations, pedestrian crossing patterns, and the needed infrastructure to safely support transit and pedestrian access. The process involves several public meetings, in which the community will be encouraged to provide input and comments.
Through this approach, stakeholders from SHA, BMC, and the local jurisdictions are all working together to identify the most effective safety solutions. Additionally, a corridor approach provides the opportunity to address roadway, pedestrian, bicycle, and transit safety concurrently. If effective, this approach will be used to develop a tool kit to address other priority corridors around the State and complement the many other Maryland safety efforts underway. The lessons learned collectively through addressing the identified corridors will become best practices and incorporated into SHA projects moving forward. For more information, contact Mary Deitz at firstname.lastname@example.com or Bala Akundi at email@example.com.

The American Public Transportation Association (APTA) has published a new Recommended Practice (RP) for designing on-street bus stops and light rail stations, entitled Design of On-street Transit Stops and Access from Surrounding Areas. Developed through its Standards Development Program, the RP uses a formal, consensus-based process for writing and issuing standards for the public transportation industry. It is intended to support transit agencies and stakeholders in the pursuit of safe and efficient on-street access to transit, for both current and potential customers.
Transit agencies can use the document to assess existing or new on-street transit stops and to provide input to local jurisdictions and developers on pedestrian improvements. It can also be used by local jurisdictions and the general public to facilitate discussions about planning, design, and investment decisions made by public agencies and elected officials. Developers, planners, and architects can also benefit when making design decisions on the interface between private development and public services where transit is present or planned. For more information, visit American Public Transportation Association Standards Development Program or contact Michael Smith at email@example.com.

A new guidebook from the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) provides information to transit agencies on the most promising ways to prevent public transportation crashes by integrating safety into all aspects of transit activities including planning, design, construction, operations, and maintenance. The publication focuses on Safety Management Systems which recognizes there will always be hazards and risks in public transportation, but a systematic and proactive management approach can identify and control those risks. The Safety Performance Measurement Systems, a component of safety management, brings clarity to vague concepts, helps transit agencies identify gaps in safety performance, and helps management and government boards take action to improve performance. To view a copy of the report, go to Transit Safety Management and Performance Measurement.
The Mineta Transportation Institute at San Jose State University has released two reports targeting bicycle and pedestrian safety. Because many planners are involved in efforts to improve pedestrian and bicycle safety, particularly at the local and regional level, these reports can provide valuable information on the most effective approaches. The first report identifies the risks associated with cycling and presents information on the engineering and education aspects that can improve safety. The report goes on to discuss other countermeasures including enforcement and the need for more information on what type of enforcement programs are effective. For more information, go to Promoting Bicycle Commuter Safety.

A second publication, "Integration of Bicycling and Walking Facilities into the Infrastructure of Urban Communities," highlights best practices and program characteristics that promote a high level of bicycle and pedestrian travel. To view a copy of the report, go to Integration of Bicycling and Walking Facilities into the Infrastructure of Urban Communities.
A guidance memo from the FHWA Office of Safety highlights when and where certain processes, design techniques, and safety countermeasures, like the Nine Proven Countermeasures, should be used. The guidance is based on effectiveness data for various crash types and reflects the circumstances and situations where FHWA is confident the use of such measures will yield high pay-offs and be cost effective. When planners recommend investment decisions for safety projects, reviewing the Nine Proven Countermeasures can serve as a starting point. The Agency is requesting partners to apply the guidance as they make investment decisions and develop projects, and to address the need for high-quality safety data to foster better decision-making. To view a copy of the memo, go to Guidance Memorandum on Consideration and Implementation of Proven Safety Countermeasures.
To help promote the use of proven safety countermeasures, FHWA has a new web site that includes detailed descriptions, research studies, and evaluations of nine research-proven countermeasures that focus on intersections, pedestrians, and roadway departure. To visit the web site, go to the Office of Safety Proven Safety Countermeasures.
While distracted driving is a problem for all drivers and all vehicle types, the nature of operating a commercial truck or motor coach may involve additional distractions such as weigh-in-motion systems. A study, Distracted Driving Countermeasures for Commercial Vehicles, conducted by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) examined the literature particularly focusing on countermeasures for driver distraction; results from a survey and in-depth interviews with motor carrier fleet managers; potential tactics and training methodologies to aid motor carriers and drivers in avoiding crashes; and the identification of gaps in knowledge and research needs. Distracted driving is gaining considerable attention from elected officials and the public. As individuals that are often called upon to provide answers to highway safety questions, planners should have as much information as possible when it comes to discussing the complex issue of distracted driving. To view a copy of the study, go to Distracted Driving Countermeasures for Commercial Vehicles.
The FHWA Resource Center has a number of resources available to help transportation planners. The Resource Center Planning Team provides training and technical assistance on the metropolitan and statewide planning process, programs and products, as well as a number of planning specialty areas. To learn more about the FHWA Resource Center Planning Team, go to the FHWA Resource Center Planning Team.
The Bureau of Transportation Statistics now provides state-by-state transportation facts, comparisons, and rankings on topics, including infrastructure, fatalities, and injuries; distracted driving and safety equipment; freight volumes and values; passenger travel; economy and finance; and energy and environment. The interactive web site provides information such as the number of public road miles, the laws on distracted driving, the number of licensed drivers and registered vehicles, and the value of freight shipments. To visit the web site, go to United States Transportation Facts and Figures.
Preliminary data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) shows traffic fatalities are still declining. A statistic projection of traffic fatalities for the first nine months of 2011 shows an estimated 24,050 people died in motor vehicle traffic crashes, which represents a decline of approximately 1.6 percent compared to the first nine months in 2010. According to FHWA, vehicle miles traveled also decreased by about 1.3 percent during the first nine months of 2011.

Members of the Transportation Planning Working Group (TSPWG) presented the findings of the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) 08-76, Institutionalizing Safety in Transportation Planning Processes: Techniques, Tactics, and Strategies. Research shows that states are focusing more attention on safety because SHSPs became a requirement under the last reauthorization. However, the results also show safety is not being systematically integrated into metropolitan and statewide transportation plans to the degree expected roughly 15 years after legislation mandated safety as a decision factor in the transportation planning process. The project developed a solution in the form of a framework to walk state DOTs and metropolitan planning organizations (MPO) through a process to achieve safety integration.
The next question is where to go from here. The AASHTO Standing Committee on Research (SCOR) approved funding for a project to pilot test and demonstrate the framework developed by Cambridge Systematics for the NCHRP project. This creates an opportunity to provide technical assistance for some DOTs and MPOs willing to take bold steps toward a more comprehensive and explicit consideration of safety in the transportation planning processes.
The continued focus is necessary given the price tag of traffic crashes which cost this nation approximately $230 billion per year. When that number is multiplied over 10 years – the costs become staggering. Safety considerations in the planning process continue to hold promise for a significant contribution to crash reduction. The safety and planning communities should review their processes and procedures with a sharp eye and use transportation plans as a tool to achieve zero deaths – a goal many states are adopting. Future articles in this newsletter will detail both the findings and framework from the NCHRP project, as well as plans for the pilot projects.
In January, the Transportation Safety Planning (TSP) subcommittee met during the Transportation Research Board Annual Conference and discussed future research needs. The chair of the subcommittee, Ed Stollof, charged the group with identifying and submitting a minimum of three research needs statements in 2012. The groups identified four potential needs:

In May, the TRB Statewide Multimodal Transportation Planning Committee and the Transportation Programming, Planning, and Systems Evaluation Committee jointly hosted the conference, Making Progress: Transportation Planners and Programmers Turn Ideas into Reality. On the agenda was a half-day Safety Boot Camp. This interactive workshop provided the framework and tools for addressing safety in the long-range planning process and other planning documents. Participants left with concrete steps for turning their safety visions into reality and safety plans into programs. The event was held at the Grand Hyatt Denver on Wednesday, May 23rd.

FHWA and TSPWG will be hosting a Safety Leadership Roundtable in December 2012. To effectively direct safety funding towards the most critical needs throughout the state, it is important to align the safety priorities and programs in the statewide and MPO Long-Range Transportation Plans and the SHSP. This roundtable is expected to provide an opportunity for state, regional, and local transportation safety planners to discuss the opportunities and barriers for coordinating the different transportation safety planning processes.

Mesa marketing itself to cold weather cities
PHOENIX -- With MLB spring training right around the corner, one Valley city is marketing itself to people who are dealing with the cold, snow and ice back east.
There are great deals for people who are coming from out of town to visit Mesa, Ariz. Starting Feb. 25, Southwest Airlines will offer a special deal -- one which is being advertised in cold weather cities and features special offers in the east Valley city.
The package deal offers discounts on Mesa hotel rates. The amount that travelers can save depends on which hotel they decide to stay in.
"The deal is targeted to Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Louis and Minneapolis," said Michelle Streeter, a spokeswoman for the group Visit Mesa. "Those are all of our growth markets."
Similar discounts were offered through Allegiant Airlines and US Airways last month. Streeter said they were a huge success.
"Our room rate production was up over 153 percent over last year at this time," she said.
Meanwhile, Mesa has a digital marketing campaign that is targeting six states and Canada. Streeter said the city is aggressively getting out the message that people can trade their coats and snow shovels back home for plenty of sunshine and desert warmth in Mesa.
Visit Mesa isn't the only Arizona group to recently kick off a campaign to draw visitors from out of state. In January, the Arizona Office of Tourism installed a large billboard -- with gigantic flip flops smashing in two prop vehicles -- in Chicago as part of its "Warm Up in AZ" campaign.

Boy, Trumka's sure bringing some fire back to the labor movement.
Richard Trumka, the president of the AFL-CIO, got himself arrested along with dozens of workers boycotting the Hilton San Francisco. The union hotel employees of UNITE HERE Local 2 have had a series of walkouts, boycotts, and rolling strikes since their contract expired in August. Today Trumka traveled to the Hilton for a huge rally and boycott, and engaged in civil disobedience with the workers. From the SF Chronicle:
Unionized hotel workers began a boycott of the Hilton San Francisco Tuesday with an 800-person march and a 160-person sit-in blocking the hotel lobby, which resulted in dozens of arrests, including AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka.
Members of the hotel workers union Local 2 have staged a series of walkouts and boycotts since their contract expired in August. The union has sought to retain health care coverage with low co-payments, while management has insisted that the San Francisco workers pay more of the ever-rising costs.
Management representatives have said the boycotts and disruptions hurt San Francisco's tourist industry. Union officials say profitable corporate hotel chains can afford to maintain the benefits.
The AFL-CIO has more on Local 2's struggle for the last several months to negotiate contracts for their workers, with details on the companies and players involved. Photo via Steve Rhodes on Flickr, with hopefully more coming soon.

SOME hype. The swine flu pandemic of 2009 was derided as fiction by some, who alleged that it was less deadly than normal flu. In fact, it probably killed 284,400 people - 15 times the number officially reported - within the first year of its world tour.
Because few cases are tested, we know the official numbers were an underestimate. Fatimah Dawood of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, Georgia, and colleagues around the world made the best global estimate so far, by combining confirmed measurements of rates of infection at 17 places in 13 countries, poor and rich, together with known variations in death rates between countries.
Uncertainties in the data mean deaths may have been as high as 575,400. Normally, seasonal flu takes 250,000 to 500,000 lives a year globally.
Crucially, 87 per cent of those killed in the pandemic were younger than 65. In ordinary winters, 90 per cent of those who die of flu are over 65. That means 9.7 million years of life were lost to the pandemic - 3.4 times as many as during a regular flu season (The Lancet Infectious Diseases, DOI: 10.1016/S1473-3099(12)70121-4).
Five million of those lost years were in Africa and south-east Asia, due to higher death rates from respiratory infections. Dawood's team says this shows how much more flu vaccine and antiviral drugs are needed in those regions. Supplies are currently low to non-existent in both places.

Fazielah Williams has lived in and loved her Mother City since birth. Having lived all over the Peninsula during her childhood, she now calls the picturesque City Bowl home and likes nothing more than watching the sun set over Table Bay from the window of her apartment.
A lover of the arts and proud Cape Town fanatic, Fazielah began her writing career by spending many hours as a child conjuring fantastical stories that featured independent heroines from faraway lands who saved the Prince instead. This Capetonian princess has enjoyed stints as a magical arts PRO and TV publicist before finding her calling as a travel writer.
When not waxing lyrical about the Fairest Cape's most loved attractions and activities and embarking on unexpected adventures, Fazielah can usually be found taking in a show at one of the City's fabulous theatres.
To truly experience the culture and people of a city one needs to indulge in local cuisine.
While most of the Mother City's culinary offerings are steeped in Dutch and Malaysian culture – legendary curries, bobotie, koeksisters, milk tarts and samoosas – Capetonians also draw inspiration from the cookery of Greece, Morocco, Nigeria and America.
The best way of taking home a taste of Cape Town is by learning to cook one of our irresistible meals.
Come to Cape Town for a cooking course and leave with a secret recipe...

Taggers Vandalize Several Properties
This past holiday week-end left several property owners in La Crosse with unexpected gifts. Graffiti vandals struck several homes over the week-end. Walls mostly in the area just south of UWL got tagged. Most messages said, simply "MWA." Others, "Bumps" or "Bumer," depending on how you read it, apparently. Police have no suspects.

Proposed evolutionary history of RedCAP, LHC and LHC-like genes. RedCAPs evolved in red algae after primary endocytobiosis and their genes can be found in the nuclear genome of almost all red algae investigated so far. During secondary endocytobiosis, when a red alga was taken up by another eukaryotic host, the RedCAP gene was transferred to the nucleus of the host cell and was lost from the nuclear genome of the former endosymbiont. Similarly, different nuclear encoded LHC variants evolved in organisms with primary plastids and were transferred to the nucleus of the secondary host during the evolution of secondary plastids. Interestingly, in diatoms, HLIP/OHP1-like genes (plastid encoded in red algae) as well as OHP2 genes (nucleus encoded in red algae) have been transferred to the nucleus of the secondary host cell. This is in contrast to the situation in the cryptophyte Guillardia theta, in which HLIP/OHP1-like is plastid encoded, and OHP2 is nucleomorph encoded. Table S2 (see Additional file 7) contains detailed genome/gene information.

Saturday, November 10th (All times eastern)
Phoenix Suns (3-3) at Utah Jazz (2-4), 9 p.m.
(Sports Network) - The Phoenix Suns didn't hit the 100-point mark in any of their first four games, but have done so in back-to-back wins.
The Suns will try to make it three straight victories Saturday against the Utah Jazz in Salt Lake City.
Phoenix posted a 117-110 triumph Wednesday at Charlotte in the finale of a three-game road trip (1-2), then handed the Cleveland Cavaliers a 107-105 setback Friday in the desert. Goran Dragic scored a game-high 26 points and Shannon Brown added 12 of his 22 points in the fourth quarter for the Suns, who made 46.9 percent of their shots and converted 21 Cleveland turnovers into 26 points.
"I mean obviously it was a much needed win. I just thought our guys hung in there. They're a really good team. That young backcourt, like I said earlier, I think they are as good as any backcourt in the NBA. You see what (Dion) Waiters can do and the way Kyrie (Irving) controls the game," Suns coach Alvin Gentry said.
Sebastian Telfair chipped in 13 points in a reserve role, as the Suns battled back from a 26-point deficit with a 14-4 run late in the game.
Utah will try to improve to 3-0 as the host this season, but has dropped four of five games since opening the campaign with a win.
The Jazz, who are 0-4 on the road this season, lost a 104-84 decision at Denver on Friday. Gordon Hayward netted 15 points to lead the Jazz, who made only 36.8 percent from the floor and sank just 4-of-23 3-point tries. The Nuggets scored 23 points off 18 Utah turnovers and had a 21-point lead in the third quarter.
"A very disappointing effort. We just didn't execute," Jazz head coach Tyrone Corbin said.
Randy Foye and Enes Kanter scored 13 points apiece off the bench in defeat. Al Jefferson was held to just four points in less than 23 minutes and Mo Williams ended with two points and four assists. According to Corbin, Williams strained his right abductor muscle during the third quarter and is questionable.
The Jazz opened 5-0 at home in 2011-12 and will begin a four-game road trip on the East Coast Monday against Toronto, Boston, Philadelphia and Washington.
Utah lost two of three meetings with the Suns a season ago and has dropped nine of the previous 13 matchups in this series.

Originally written on NFL Trade Rumors | Last updated 10/30/12
Texans head coach Gary Kubiak has been frustrated with running back Ben Tate as he hasn't been able to stay healthy this season. "My biggest level of concern with Tate is just keeping him on the field," Kubiak said, per Tania Ganguli of the Houston Chronicle. "It seems like it's been one thing after another. If it's not the toe, the hamstring. This has been going on for a few years. We need him." Tate has been bothered all season long by toe and hamstring injuries, which has limited him to just 43 carries in just six games. It's looking more and more likely that Tate will be out for this Sunday's game as the the Texans host the Bills. Justin Forsett would replace Tate as Arian Foster's backup.

Employee Benefits
How can you attract and retain top talent without paying top dollar?
To compete for the best employees, you need to offer incentives. McGrath Insurance Group can help you get the greatest value out of your benefits budget.
Dental Insurance
Good dental health will keep your employees smiling. Dental coverage is an affordable add-on and is especially appreciated at a time when employees are paying more toward the cost of their healthcare coverage. ^top
Disability Income Insurance
Both short-term and long-term disability coverage are available. Coverage is especially important for professionals, self-employed individuals and those in occupations where being out of work would create financial difficulties. Insurance provides an income while the disabled individual recovers from sickness or injury that is not work-related. ^top
Health Insurance/Medical Insurance
Today, health insurance is the top insurance concern of any business and of self-employed individuals. Prices have been increasing at double-digit rates for years, so all employers need help managing healthcare costs.
We can help you control costs through –
- Competitive pricing. When carriers compete for your business, we can negotiate the best rates. As an independent agency, working with many top carriers, we can help you find health insurance that meets the needs of your employees without breaking your budget.
- Creative planning. To control the cost of your health insurance, you need to create an incentive for your employees to control the cost of their healthcare. Attractive options McGrath Insurance Group offers include prepaid plans, such as Healthcare Reimbursement Accounts (HRAs) and high-deductible health insurance plans.
- Related benefits. Because the cost of health insurance is so high, employers are increasingly asking employees to share the costs. Employees will feel better about sharing the cost of health insurance if other benefits are made available to them. McGrath Insurance Group offers a variety of voluntary benefits and group benefits, such as dental, disability, life and long-term care insurance. McGrath Insurance can help you develop a long-term cost strategy for your benefits program.
We represent all of the healthcare carriers in the markets we serve. Our objective is to develop a plan that offers you the best coverage, with excellent claim service, at a competitive price. ^top
Life Insurance
Life insurance is among the most basic and most important employee benefits. Group life can be used to offer employees at all levels an opportunity to protect their families and provide them with a source of income in case of an untimely death.
It is especially important to have accidental death and dismemberment coverage in occupations where the employee is exposed to potential dangers, such as in a construction or manufacturing environment.
Life insurance may also be used to fund benefits for key executives. Split-dollar plans and executive bonus plans, for example, can provide retirement income in addition to a death benefit.
Additional information about life insurance is available here. ^top
Section 125 Plans
All Massachusetts employers with 11 or more full-time employees are required by law to offer their employees a Section 125 "cafeteria" plan, which gives employees an opportunity to choose from a selection of benefits.
McGrath Insurance Group has designed cafeteria plans for employers of all sizes. We can develop a plan for your business that not only meets the requirements of the law, but helps you attract and retain employees by providing them with the benefits they want most.
Using our online platform for employee benefits, your employees can choose the benefits they want, when they want – and it's all automated, so there is little administrative burden for you.
It doesn't have to cost you a great deal of money, either. You can, for example, offer your employees a selection of voluntary benefits, which they can purchase at group rates through payroll deductions using pre-tax dollars, which save them money – and cost you very little.
Today's workforce is made up of many different kinds of people, and different people have different needs. With a Section 125 "cafeteria" plan, you can help your employees and their families get the benefits they want and the coverage they need. ^top
Travel Accident Insurance
Travel accident insurance is especially useful for executives, sales staff and others who travel frequently. You never know when insurance will be needed – and you don't want to run the risk of having an accident when you are far away from home. ^top
Voluntary Programs
What if you could offer your employees valuable benefits without paying for them?
Employee benefits can help you attract and retain talented employees. Even if you already offer attractive benefits, adding on voluntary benefits – which cost you nothing – can show your employees that you value them.
Voluntary benefits are a convenient way to provide your employees with the protection they need. By making coverage available through payroll deductions, you can help employees and their families get the coverage they need. Voluntary benefits McGrath Insurance Group offers include:
- Life Insurance for employees, their spouses and dependents
- Dental Insurance
- Disability Income Protection
- Accident Insurance
- Cancer Insurance
- Critical Illness Insurance
- Long-Term Care Insurance, with executive carve-out options ^top

Christ the King students learn service of givingBy Josh OGorman
STAFF WRITER | January 31,2014Albert J. Marro / Staff Photo
Turner Ramsey, left, watches over Peyton Rider who was busy working Thursday on a community service project at Christ the King School in Rutland as part of Catholic Schools Week.Its all about faith, knowledge and service. These are the three themes being explored during Catholic Schools Week at Mount St. Joseph Academy and Christ the King School, where students in preschool through eighth grade tied together these concepts during a community-service project Thursday.
We always try to incorporate a service project into Catholic Schools Week, said third-grade teacher Christine Cirelli. As a school, we want to promote service, and that is always ongoing, but this week, its in the forefront.
For their project, students used fleece to make blankets and scarves to be donated to the Rutland County Womens Network & Shelter and two assisted-living facilities: the Loretto Home and the St. Joseph Kervick Residence, both in Rutland.
The students raised the money themselves at a pair of fundraisers during which the students paid $1 each to be able to wear jeans to school. With that money, they were able to buy enough material to make approximately 25 blankets and 50 scarves.
Its a good, refreshing service project, instead of just sending the kids into their mothers cupboards for a canned food drive, said Principal Mary Guggenberger. She said the gifts will be appreciated by the assisted-living residents.
Its always good for the elderly to get communications from young people, Guggenberger said. We want to help not just the hungry and the homeless, but the lonely.
Service projects such as these are nothing new for Christ the King students, who, even at a young age, understand what theyre doing and why theyre doing it.
Were helping people who need help, said third-grader Emma Hoover, 9, as she took a break from tying together edges of fleece to make a blanket.
The project also brought together some of the schools oldest and youngest students. While some students worked on blankets and scarves, seventh-graders were guiding the 4- and 5-year-old students as they made cards to accompany the gifts, reminding the receiver Were thinking of you and You are in our thoughts and prayers.
It brings back a lot of memories for them, said Deborah Serafino, who teaches grades six through eight. A lot of the seventh graders were here doing this when they were 4 or 5 years old.
One of those seventh graders was 12-year-old Angelina Tommola.
Its important for us when we do this to be good role models, because (the younger students) look up to us, Tommola said.

My visit went well. She is a great doctor and everyone at the office was nice and respectful. My visit was very informative which made me very pleased with my decision. Thanks doctor Hammerel and everyone at the office. Please continue the good work.
I visited with the nurse practitioner as Dr Hammerel had to perform surgery, but the NP was absolutely amazing! She was sweet and made sure I knew exactly what she was doing and it really helped eliminate the first visit awkwardness. Definitely would recommend this office and NP.
Dr. Hammerel spent a quality amount of time speaking with me which I really appreciated. I did not feel like she rushed through the exam and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a new doctor.
I always feel comfortable during my visits and would recommend the office to anyone.
This was my second annual visit and I really like Dr Hammerel. She is very thorough and easy to talk to and has excellent bedside manner.
Dr. Hammerel was great, although a bit condescending at times.
I enjoyed my consultation with Dr. Hammerel. I felt that she was listening to all of my questions and addressed all of my concerns. And not only that, she also asked a checking question! "What other questions or concerns do you have that we have not addressed yet?" Talk about awesome "customer relationship management" skills! I felt she really took her time and was not rushing through the appointment. She made me feel comfortable and the rest of the office staff was also friendly.
Staff and doctor were great.....very friendly and great bedside manner
I like her a lot. She spent a lot of time with me. I didn't feel rushed.
Dr. Hammerel exercised a wonderful bedside manner, very kind and provided a lot of education and support during my visit. She followed up promptly with my test results and offered me options as soon as she had them available. I will continue to see her as my primary OB-GYN physician.
Courtney Hammerel was very professional and informative.
I felt that she was very thorough and nonjudgemental. I will come back and see her again and I plan on having my daughter make an appointment.
She is very down to earth. She makes you feel very at ease.
Very professional and easy to talk to.
The doctor was great. The online system needs improvement. No option for 1st pregnancy visit.
Courtney and the staff at Main Line Health Center were professional and kind. Courtney took the time to sit and talk for a few minutes and didn't seem rushed. I didn't have to wait too long which is always nice.
She is always timely, respectful and not rushed when it comes to my needs and questions.
Professional and knowledgeable. Can feel free to ask any question you may have. Highly recommend!!
I came in a couple hours early, and she could see me almost right away
The office staff and Dr. Hammerel were very professional and pleasant.

Crossover's got game, not to mention the best of intentions. But it's too clunky by half, with characters who bounce way too quickly from one emotion to the next, dialogue that must have looked better on the page than it sounds coming out of the actors' mouths, and a desperate need to show off its street cred that sometimes threatens to make the film a parody of itself.
Anthony Mackie (She Hate Me) and Wesley Jonathan (TV's What I Like About You) are Tech and Cruise, best buds who have become stars on the Detroit basketball scene. Cruise has parlayed his skills on the court into a basketball scholarship at UCLA, where he plans on going pre-med and becoming a doctor, while Tech is struggling to get his GED and finally get some direction in his life.

Q: The following message pops up at random very frequently:
"Runtime Error, Windows\System32\spool\drivers\X64\3\E_YATIHWA.EXE. Application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly." I found and downloaded the 2008/2012 C++ libraries to no avail; downloaded the MS Fix-It files to fix RTEs, restored computer to earliest time allowed, all no help. Error msg Googles to Epson Status Monitor file. Probably started after installing new Epson printer. Have reloaded s/w from website two times no help.
– Robert W., Fort Walton Beach
A: Well Robert, the good news is that your research is correct. The program in question is related to the Epson Status Monitor 3, which, as you said, was installed along with your new Epson printer. The bad news is that you're doing what people often do in trying to solve a problem they don't understand, and you're doing unnecessary things to your computer which, in combination, can actually put it at risk. Case in point, the C++ libraries you installed were "to no avail" because they are not used by the software in question. The software needs the runtime library for which it was written, and nothing else. Unlike something like a virus scanner or security update, having the latest version will do you no good when it comes to a run-time library. The MS Fix-It was a good choice if it had worked. Obviously not all RTEs are created equal. I can't help but wonder what you undid on your computer by restoring it to the earliest time allowed. Whatever security patches or other updates were installed are probably now gone, and will need to be re-installed.
I don't have a definitive answer for you, but here are some things to try: You said you reloaded the software from the website twice. That's good, and I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt that you have the correct version for your operating system. But did you completely uninstall the old version before reloading? If not, go back and do that first. Double check to make sure you removed everything – some installers load multiple applications that require separate removal. Also, pay attention to the printer's instructions about when to plug the device in during installation. Plugging it in prematurely can activate Window's plug-and-play, and interfere with the manufacturer's installation process. Consider disabling your virus scanner while installing the new software, so critical parts of the installation don't get blocked. After all, a software installation looks suspiciously like a virus installation, and the scanner might not be able to tell the difference. Finally, make sure all your other system software is up to date. Perform a Windows update before you do anything else. Good luck!
Q: I keep getting two pop-ups I cannot get rid of. One is from Adobe FPS requesting 10 KB more storage space. The other is from FUNMOODSSrv.exe wanting me to download open.Icontent. I don't know what that means, but I have read to not download any exe 's. Any help?
– Bill R., Fort Walton Beach
A: On a modern computer 10 KB is a tiny amount of space, so I cannot imagine a program popping up a dialog to ask for that amount of storage. Are you sure it's not telling you that your connection is slow, and it needs 10 KB/S more network bandwidth? Please send me the complete error message. Your other problem is more straightforward – that one is malware. Specifically, it's Adware trying to get you to install more malware. You can remove Funmoods through the regular "Add/Remove Programs" function of Control Panel, but that won't repair the damage it has done to your browser configuration. I found a pretty good site online that will explain how you got it in the first place, and how to completely clean it off. Visit tinyurl.com/dy9royg for the details.

From Peter Abrahams
A chance juxtaposition of articles in your magazine may solve two problems in one go. If all the excess feathers mentioned in "Down, but not out" (25 December 2004, p 40) could be turned into a dried moss substitute, this could realise dreams of a green Christmas (p 59).
Chop the feathers up small and mix with a little natural green colouring, some glue made from the quills and a bit of ingenuity, and I am sure we could produce a soft, natural product that resembles dry moss. Thus the environment could be saved twice: once from drowning in feathers and once from losing all its natural moss.

In Australian medical device industry, while there are a few small high tech manufacturers, local production tends to concentrate on basic hospital supplies. The market is therefore predominantly supplied by imports. Imports are principally supplied by the USA, however, in August 2011, after months of negotiation, the Commonwealth Government signed an agreement with all States and Territories to formalise the National Health Reform plan. Designed to improve funding to hospitals and to reduce patient waiting times, the plan will see the Commonwealth Government invest at least A$16.4 billion (US$16.0 billion) in additional funding for public hospitals over the period 2014-15 to 2019-20. The CG will match 45% of efficient growth funding from July 2014, and 50% of efficient growth from July 2017.

2. Michael and Brian Laudrup
Although Michael is known as one of the greatest footballers in history, brother Brian is also exceptional. He was able to lead a largely unfavourable Denmark side to the 1992 European Championship title in the absence of his brother.
Both brothers have played for the biggest clubs in Europe such as Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich and AC Milan. In addition, the fact that both were included in Pele's top 100 list is a testament to their footballing talent.
Michael is continuing to enjoy success after managing Swansea to their first ever major trophy last season while playing an attractive brand of football.

Stonehenge seems okay on the outside, the apartments are spacious and in an alright location, but unless you enjoy rude/loud neighbors, loud rap music blaring outside all the time, people always taking the parking space you are paying for, and a cop who doesn't do anything about, don't live here. They also allow construction/maintenance men to just walk into your apartment where you keep all of your stuff any time of the day wether or not you are there. I came home one day and there was a man working on the front door who I just walked past, he didn't say a word to me, so really anyone at all could have just walked in and grabbed something and walked out. DO NOT LIVE HERE. Plus, the landlord won't work with you on anything they won't e-mail you back and they don't care how bad your living experience is, THEY ARE VERY UNPROFESSIONAL.

Tarporley, Cheshire (PRWEB UK) 15 November 2012
Discover Motorhome Hire has had a stunning first season. Business was so good that Managing Director Nick Edwards had to fly out with a team to Italy to pick up four new motorhomes straight off the factory production line to meet demand as there were no more vehicles available in the UK.
But the company's mission is to transform the UK motorhome hire industry. And so it has no intention of resting on its laurels. The team at Discover pride themselves on listening to the their customers and for 2013 have introduced 4 new models based on that feedback.
Nick Edwards describes the things that customers have asked for: "Storage space is always something people want more of. Lots of customers have expressed a preference for automatic transmission. Everyone wants flexibility in the number of berths, whilst keeping the overall size and weight of the vehicle to the minimum."
In order to provide new models to meet these requirements, the company has had to scour the market and to be innovative. After much research and negotiation, Discover has partnered with Italian manufacturer Rimor Motorhomes to provide a new range of 4 models tailor-made for UK customers. These models will be branded as "Discover" motorhomes:
Describing the deal, Nick Edwards comments: "We have found Rimor to be accommodating and efficient; delivering exactly what we wanted in the ideal rental motorhome for 2013, with modifications made to suit the UK market".
The new vehicles will be available to hire from March 2013.

December 15, 2005
Northbrook, Ill. — Teens will spend $159 billion this year according to The TRU Study, the nation's premier teen marketing and lifestyle survey published by Teenage Research Unlimited (TRU).
The figure represents a projection of total teen spending for 2005, including teens' own cash and others' money that they spend—typically their parents'.
Although teens' overall spending level registered a 6% decline from one year ago, most 12- to 19-year-olds reported spending just as much of their own money in 2005 as they did last year. In fact, nearly all of the decrease seems to stem from less access to other people's money.
According to TRU Vice President Michael Wood, teen consumers aren't seeing eye-to-eye with experts who claim the economy is healthy and growing.
"From a teen's point of view, these are times only an economist could love," Wood says. "Teen unemployment levels have been high for several years as underemployed older workers make do with the sort of entry-level service jobs teens once held. Parents are still skittish about unemployment, so they're not spreading the wealth around like they used to. And historically high gas prices mean that teens who drive are watching an unprecedented amount of their budget flowing directly into their gas tanks."
But if their current spending is down, their optimism in next year is up. Nearly half (47%) believe they'll spend more in 2006 than they did this year—that's a significant increase over the 34% who said the same last year. Only 17% of teens said they believe they'll spend less money next year than they did in 2005.
TRU polls more than 2,000 demographically representative teens to compile The TRU Study. The largest survey of its type, The TRU Study surveys a nationally representative sample of American teens twice yearly on trends, lifestyles, attitudes, and consumer behaviors. This year, TRU conducted more than 1,000 focus groups, in addition to many in-depth interviews and customized quantitative studies. In the past 23 years, TRU has interviewed nearly one million teenagers.

Sounds delicious but I'm not real fond of soy milk. May try almond milk.

M3 or M6/M2 decision depends on whether you would mainly use standard 50mm lens or 35mm lens. M3 doesn't have view frame line for 35mm lens. Though you can use 35mm lens with goggle, it's rather bulky. M6, M4p have also 28mm view frame line.
I mainly use 50mm lens and I love the finder of M3.

Jefferson Davis board puts off teacher cuts
The Jefferson Davis Parish School Board has tabled a measure to eliminate art and music teachers - except band - in elementary and high schools.
The American Press reports ( http://bit.ly/cseYHv) the measure would have also done away with elementary French teachers and selected Response to Intervention positions. And it would have allowed staff to eliminate additional teaching positions based on the parish staffing formula.
Superintendent David Clayton said the measure would have eliminated almost a dozen positions, saving nearly $800,000 a year.
Board member Jimmy Segura asked the board Thursday to postpone action so members could have more time to study the proposal.

Town's disabled access wins praise
Posted: November 09, 2012|
Disabled young people have praised Loughborough businesses for being easy to access and providing friendly staff.
Youngsters with learning, developmental and physical disabilities gave their verdict on the town at an event organised by Charnwood Youth Council.
They were asked to fill in a survey about access for disabled young people, with 100 per cent of respondents saying most shops are easy to access while 89 per cent found the majority of residents and shop keepers are friendly and helpful.
Luke St-Denis, leader of Charnwood youth council, said: "When it comes to access issues, it's important for us to ask young people with learning and developmental disabilities, as well as physically disabled young people, because the barriers for them can be less obvious.
"In general, they love Loughborough."
Councillor David Snartt, Charnwood borough council's cabinet member for neighbourhood services, said: "What a fabulous result for Loughborough. We can be really proud of our town.
"Well done, Charnwood Youth Council, for another creative way to ensure the voices of disadvantaged youngsters are heard."

I prepared this salad for a formal dinner serving 65 guests. I served it with a homemade balsamic vinagarette infused with cracked black pepper. The salad was beautiful & everyone enjoyed it. ...
This salad was a huge hit at our family barbeque. The blackberries were hard to toss so next time I will add them last.
This was an interesting dish and something nice to serve. My husband liked it very much. Used balsamic vinegar.
