Highly Favorable Settlement for Lorandos Joshi' Client in a High-Profile Trade Secret Dispute
Lorandos Joshi recently settled a transnational trade secret case on highly favorable terms for its client, an Indian corporation with subsidiaries in the U.S. and the U.K. client sued a well known U.S. corporation with subsidiaries in several countries and its top management in a federal district court in the United States. Lorandos Joshi's client alleged that the defendants poached key employees from its India office and stole trade secrets and other proprietary information. The defendant multinational and its top executives retained a well known East coast law firm.
Over the course of this litigation, attorneys gave the powerhouse East coast firm a run for its money and engaged in a knock-down, drag-out fight over depositions in the U.S. and in New Delhi, India, motion practice, electronic discovery, and forensic analysis of computers and servers situated in a foreign jurisdiction. With law enforcement agencies and media in the U.S. and in India watching closely over this litigation, the defendants settled. Although the terms of the settlement are confidential, it is fair to say that the offer was too good for our client to pass up.
Local attorneys stated they had never seen a similar case won in more than 30 years of practice in the area.
The case involved charges of healthcare fraud and sexual misconduct leveled against a Muslim dentist in a conservative Midwestern state. But aggressive tactics beat the odds. Click here to learn more.

The Power & Danger of Iconography
Religion & Politics « General Discussion
Originally posted by Plasuma!!!
You're either confusing yourself or my wording was awkward... more than likely the latter.
The issues of health care, marriage, and taxes are big nothings. That is to say: the taxes, health care, and marriages themselves are still quite important. The issues surrounding them are not.
If everyone could debate logically and think objectively, we wouldn't have these issues in the first place. They may surface, but would be quickly resolved. There's no point in dwelling on the situations when a compromise can be made - some people don't want compromises because they are uneducated. They believe the compromise could be detrimental to their survival, and indeed it may because they don't understand the situation. They just want it to stay the way it is, they don't have the resources or knowledge to observe the situation from another's perspective and so a debate with them is impossible.
The nature of competitive parties: if one party is at a disadvantage, the other will dominate. If both parties are on equal grounds, they will call a truce and make agreements. Debates are based on how much you know about yourself, your issues, and your opponent's issues (which means at least one other point of view is required).
Debates are great, I didn't say we shouldn't have them. I said we need to spread the ability to debate logically. Meaning objectively. If we did debate logically, we wouldn't have these silly issues.
I think I get what you are saying now. At first i though you were meant that those issues themselves were not important. I don't get what you mean by "resources" when talking about debating.
Just because a compromised is meet between 2 or more parties does not mean anything was solved. With a proper debate i don't think a compromise would ever come. To win a debate their would be no compromise, 1 groups point would be proven false or invalid. A compromise in politics is a easy means to the finish line without a true debate on the issue at hand. Just because you don't want compromise on some things does not mean you are uneducated. The whole idea of debating is to give someone another perspective while proving theirs wrong. You can debate with just about anyone on anything, weather they are high school drop outs or hold a PHD. The point of the debate is to gain knowledge from others and on issues, to hear both sides while trying to prove the others invalid. That's just what i think a debate is all about, doesn't matter if you are educated or uneducated you can still have a debate. But yes sometimes you find people that its just impossible to debate anything with because they are that ignorant to different ideas. But as long as someone is willing to debate then they are open to new ideas and trying to expand their knowledge.
knowledge gives rises to a belief in tolerance

How is health care, sanctity of marriage, and taxes big nothings? You education and that is important, education gives rise to a belief in tolerance. You said " if everyone had the ability to think got themselves and debate logically" and that to get their we need education. But if someone gets educated and you remove the debates how will we learn anything? Without debating we will never learn anything no matter how much education you have. If i am misunderstanding what you meant please give me more insight.

The icon themselves are not a bad thing. The bad thing comes to what is associated with the icon and how the icon is used. You're branding all ideology as bad. Ideology is not it self but, but the type of ideology could be. It is all based on how stuff it used. Like the Swastika, it has a long history. To most in western cultures it is associated with Nazi's. but to other cultures it has a wide range of meanings. Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Chinese, and Ancient Greek all used a icon that looks very similar. But they all have different meanings. So its not the icon that is dangerous, it what the icon represents and how it is used. The icon is just something that people can use to bind them together, in some common goal. Hopefully the goal is something good and not evil. But who determines if something is good or evil is another topic.

Barack Obama ran an unprecedented Presidential campaign - utilizing the power of design to help secure the seat of the President of the United States of America. However, his iconic emblem, the ever present "O", holds more power than even Obama knows. Bill Whittle points out the dangers of branding an ideology with an icon and how, perhaps, the powerful symbol will be used against the very man it built up
I've never though much about the power icons can hold until now. I do find it disturbing how the Obama logo is everywhere .
UPS VS FedEx
Religion & Politics « General Discussion
UPS and FedEx are currently in a political battle over what labor laws are classified under. UPS is classified under National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). UPS is classified under NLRA because they do the majority of their shipping by truck. NLRA allows unionization at the local level for any national company, making it very easy to form labor unions. Because of this UPS is one of the most unionized companies around. On the other hand FedEx is classified under Railroad Labor Act (RLA). FedEx is classified under RLA because they do the majority of their shipping by air. Under RLA you need the majority of the whole company to agree to unionize, making it much harder. Because of this only a small part of FedEx is unionized, the ground shipping part. UPS tried once to get reclassified under the RLA, but the request was denied. So UPS is trying to level the playing field by getting FedEx classified under NLRA now. UPS is doing this because their labor costs are around twice as much as FedEx. This move by UPS is unethical and horrible. But the real monster here is the federal government, they hold the power to crush any business they wish to overnight.
Using Unions As Weapons
By: Veronique de Rugy

Imagine two competing pizza delivery companies that are identical in every way except their delivery methods. Pizza Company A delivers its pizza by car and Pizza Company B delivers its pizza by bike.
Now imagine that the government has completely different labor laws for pizza parlors with cars and pizza parlors with bicycles. The result is much larger labor costs for Company B than Company A. Is that fair? Should the government care?
A similar situation underlies a vicious fight between United Parcel Service (UPS) and its main private competitor in the delivery business, FedEx, over archaic labor rules that classify the companies based on their favored forms of transportation. Because 85 percent of FedEx deliveries go by air and 85 percent of UPS deliveries go by truck, the two companies are obliged to obey different labor laws.
FedEx Express, the company's air delivery service, operates under the Railway Labor Act (RLA), instituted in 1926 to arbitrate labor disputes in industries (including, by 1936, airlines) that are deemed vital to interstate commerce. Under this law, in order to be recognized, a union must receive a majority of votes from all a company's employees, rather than merely a majority of those who choose to vote. That makes it much more difficult for labor to organize. As a result, FedEx Express, and therefore FedEx, have been mostly union-free for decades.
UPS, by contrast, operates under the 1935 National Labor Relations Act (NLRA, commonly known as the Wagner Act). This Depression-era law allows unionization at each individualoffice of a national company, thereby significantly lowering the barriers to labor organizing. As a result, UPS is one of the largest unionized companies in the country. (Like UPS, the FedEx Ground and FedEx Freight divisions of FedEx are covered by the NLRA.)
This legal distinction has had a significant impact on the two competitors' labor costs. Average compensation and benefit cost per employee at UPS is more than double that at FedEx—$74,413 vs. $29,310. (See table.)
By now, UPS has had enough of the extra costs labor unions impose on its business. To tackle the problem, Big Brown teamed up with the very people responsible for the costs: the Teamsters. Working together, they've lobbied the Democratic majority in Congress to transfer approximately 100,000 of FedEx's employees—basically the ground pickup and delivery operations of FedEx Express—to fall under the Wagner Act. The change would make it easier for these employees to unionize, which would raise FedEx's labor costs.
House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman Jim Oberstar (D-Minn.) inserted language changing FedEx's labor status into a reauthorization bill for the Federal Aviation Administration. The legislation passed the House by a vote of 277 to 136 in May, over FedEx's objections. The measure is now awaiting passage in the Senate.
Committee members who supported the amendment claimed they wanted to create a level playing field between the two companies. "It's an issue of fundamental fairness," Rep. Candice Miller (R-Mich.) told Roll Call. "The workers, and most importantly consumers, would be better served."
It's interesting that these lawmakers think leveling the playing field needs to take the form of giving more, not less, power to unions. Where were they back when UPS was trying to be reclassified under the Railway Labor Act?
In 1993 UPS argued to the NRL Board that all of its activities, "including ground operations," should be subject to the RLA "because the ground operations are part of the air service." Whatever you think of the Railway Labor Act, the law was intended to protect the arteries of commerce and to ensure that any bargaining agreement for employees be the same throughout the entire company, so that no local unit could paralyze the entire company. It was designed for companies that primarily use rail and air in conducting or facilitating interstate commerce. In that sense, FedEx, with its integrated system, probably has a stronger claim to be an RLA company than UPS does. Yet according to Washington Post columnist George Will, "FedEx supported UPS's efforts, even though the vast majority of UPS parcels never go on an airplane, whereas FedEx's trucking operations exist to feed its air fleet and distribute what it carries." UPS's demand was denied, opening the path to today's battle.
Rather than continue pushing for reclassification, or just competing fair and square under current law, UPS is using the federal government to inflict damage on its competition. While this maneuver is hardly commendable, it is predictable. In their 2004 book Saving Capitalism From the Capitalists, economists Raghuram G. Rajan and Luigi Zingales of the Chicago Booth School of Business brilliantly describe this Washingtoncentric way of competing. "Capitalism's biggest political enemies are not the firebrand trade unionists spewing vitriol against the system," they warn, "but the executives in pin-striped suits extolling the virtues of competitive markets with every breath while attempting to extinguish them with every action."
Yet unions do play an important part in this comedy. Teamsters gave $2.4 million to Democrats during the 2008 federal election season and are now collecting the rewards. While it's tempting to see this as the last gasp of sputtering private-sector unionism—whose share of the U.S. private work force, according the Bureau of Labor Statistics, has plummeted from 36 percent in 1953 to 7 percent today—that would, alas, be incorrect.
For the first time in well over a decade, unions have both a strong ally in the White House and a Democrat-controlled Congress. At press time, members of Congress were negotiating a version of the misleadingly named Employee Free Choice Act, which would impose compulsory arbitration on private companies that can't reach agreement with their unions. Meanwhile, the Obama administration is eliminating reporting requirements that forced some transparency on unions—notably the LM-30 Rule, which required union officials to report conflicts of interest, and the LM-2 rule, which required disclosure of financial information and information about labor leaders' compensation. And the president has pushed through labor-friendly takeovers of Michigan's auto industry.
Unions represent an Industrial Revolution–era understanding of labor relations. The modern American movement grew out of an assembly line culture where every product was identical and workers were viewed in a similar way. As that mode of production has declined, so have unions' relevance and power.
But in an increasingly mixed economy with government exerting outright or implicit control over large swaths of domestic output, private-sector unions may experience a comeback. That's especially true if the president delivers on his campaign promises. If that happens, we can expect businesses to be treated equally poorly by the government. To come back to our pizza delivery example, it won't matter how the companies get their product to your door; both will face high costs. And that means you will too.

House Passes $1 Trillion Measure to Overhaul U.S. Health Care

I'm not trying to call anyone out, that would be counter productive and make me a hypocrite. Just a general rule, let the other guy get mad and start calling people names. At that point they invalidate there argument and you have won. Because they can no longer debate with you on even terms they have to resort to attacks.
Just trying to help people get better at debating. If people are good at debating its a lot funner to read the topic.

House Passes $1 Trillion Measure to Overhaul U.S. Health Care
Religion & Politics « General Discussion
Nov. 7 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. House passed legislation with the most far-reaching changes to the nation's health-care system in four decades, requiring all Americans to get coverage, and subjecting insurers to new restrictions and competition from a government program.
The House voted 220-215 today to approve the measure, which would cost more than $1 trillion over 10 years. Just one Republican, Representative Joseph Cao of Louisiana, backed the plan, and 39 Democrats broke ranks to oppose it.
Lawmakers hailed the step as a historic follow-on to the 1965 creation of the Medicare program for the elderly and disabled. They said the bill would cover 36 million uninsured Americans and curb costs. New rules would prevent insurers from denying coverage to people with preexisting conditions, and seniors would get help obtaining preventive care and medicine.
"This bill is change that the American people urgently need," President Barack Obama said earlier in the day after meeting with Democrats on Capitol Hill.
With the House vote, Congress moved closer than ever to a goal of universal access to health care. Former President Bill Clinton and first lady Hillary Clinton, now secretary of state, never got past committee work in the early 1990s.
Spotlight on Senate
The spotlight now moves to the Senate, where Majority Leader Harry Reid is struggling to get the votes to even begin debate on his version. Once the Senate passes a bill, lawmakers from each chamber would work together on a compromise for a new round of votes, a process likely to take months.
Reid this week wouldn't commit to meeting Obama's goal of signing a health-care bill into law by the end of the year. Already, that would have represented a five-month gap between the votes of four of the five congressional committees assigned to work on health care and a White House signing ceremony.
The House vote came after a daylong session, in which a battle over funding for abortion threatened to derail the bill's chances, and disputes over everything from illegal immigrants to the cost of the legislation peeled away enough Democrats to make the balloting close. Republican John Boehner called it a "big government takeover of health care."
The margin was narrow enough to prompt last-minute lobbying from Obama, who pressed lawmakers to "rise to this moment, answer the call of history" and pass his signature initiative.
Dingell's Gavel
The day began with a raucous debate over the ground rules for considering the legislation. Michigan Representative John Dingell, 83, presided over the proceedings, wielding the same gavel he used during the debate that led to the creation of Medicare to calm down lawmakers shouting over each other.
After more than 5 1/2 hours of general debate, the lawmakers turned to an amendment from Michigan Democrat Bart Stupak that would have further limited the use of federal dollars for abortions. It passed on a 240-194 vote.
They then rejected a Republican alternative bill by a 258- 176 vote.
For most of the year, the biggest fight has been over the creation of a government-run insurance program, the so-called public option, to compete with private insurers such as Hartford, Connecticut-based Aetna Inc.
Public Option
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a California Democrat, had to scale back her original proposal for the public option. Lacking votes for tying the program's reimbursements to doctors to the lower rates paid by Medicare, she settled on a plan that would instead negotiate rates with providers, as private insurers do.
The Senate version calls for a similar program that would allow states to opt out. Still, Reid faces opposition from Connecticut Senator Joe Lieberman, an independent aligned with the Democrats, and Snowe, the only Republican to vote for any proposal so far. At least four Senate Democrats have also been critical of the idea.
Reid needs all 60 votes controlled by the Democratic caucus to even begin debate, and it's not certain he has them. He would then need 60 votes again to cut off debate and take a vote, amid battles over the public option and new taxes to pay for the expanded insurance coverage for Americans.
"We're going to do this legislation as expeditiously as we can, but we're going to do it as fairly as we can also," Reid told reporters on Nov. 3.
Both the House and Senate bills require Americans to get insurance, add new restrictions on insurers and encourage greater use of preventive medicine, electronic records and research on the effectiveness of treatments.
2010 Provisions
Many of the House provisions take effect in 2010. The elderly would face no co-payments for preventive care and get help paying for drugs. The uninsured would get temporary aid until new purchasing exchanges are created, and young adults could stay on their parents' plans until they turn 27.
House leaders also included an expansion of the government Medicaid program for the poor, which may cost the federal government less than providing subsidies to help people buy insurance. The plan would expand eligibility to people whose incomes are 150 percent of the official poverty level.
To finance their bill, House Democrats opted for a surtax on couples who make more than $1 million a year. They would also impose a 2.5 percent excise tax on medical devices that the congressional Joint Committee on Taxation estimates would raise $20 billion over 10 years.
The House bill also requires that employers offer insurance or pay a penalty, with exemptions for businesses with payrolls of less than $500,000. That is a subject of debate in the Senate, where the chamber's health committee included a mandate and the finance panel rejected it.

The bill would make large businesses that self-insure their employees pay $2 billion in fees over the next decade. And it adopts a Senate proposal to set a $2,500 limit beginning in 2011 on contributions to tax-advantaged Flexible Spending Accounts used to pay out-of-pocket medical costs.
To address rising costs, the bill calls for the independent Institute of Medicine to make recommendations on how to fix the Medicare payment system and calls for Medicare to negotiate prices for drugs, potentially driving down prices.
Drugmakers managed to keep the negotiation provision out of the legislation that created the Medicare prescription drug program in 2003 and have fought it this year. The industry reached an agreement, now under fire, with Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus and the White House to pledge $80 billion to the overhaul effort and avert further contributions.
Fed Pledges to Keep Rates Low for 'Extended Period'

Amendment X: The power not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
So Congress is prohibited by the Constitution to use anything other then Gold or Silver to be legal tender and that is what the US Treasury does. The FED is a private cartel of banks that has been given a charter by government to operate. The FED has the power to print money, but its is the job of the US Treasury to control the value of the dollar. The irony in that. The FED is the third Central Bank in Americas history. The First and Second Central Banks closed down because the charter were allowed to expire. Since the creation of the FED in 1913, inflation has hit around 2080%, what use to cost $20 in 1913 now costs around $430. To make it easier its lost about 95% of its value. The FED has caused great periods in economic instability since its creation. The FED markets itself as being able to control inflation and market stability. We have seen the stock market crashes of 1919, 1929,1930, 1937, 1973, 1987, 2000, and 2007. Compared to only 2 major market crashed since before the creation of the FED, 1901 and 1906.
So its not only is congress not allowed create a fiat currency (paper money) since its unconstitutional, the practicing of a fiat currency created many period of instability. So the FED has been failing at its job since its creation and been proving that Keynesian Economics does not work.
Remember, remember the 5th of November...

Fed Pledges to Keep Rates Low for 'Extended Period'
Religion & Politics « General Discussion
The FED plans on keeping interest rates between 0 and .25% for a extended period of time. As long as inflation is stable and unemployment fails to decline. Capital comes from savings, the more savings we have the more capital we have and the lower the interest rates will be. Vice versa the less savings you have the less capital you have and the higher the interest rates will be. This is very important to the market. When interest rates are low it tells investors that there is capital and they should invest. But in reality there is very little real capital in America. So when we have artificially low interest rates it gives investors the wrong impression and they are willing to make more risky investments then they normal world if real capital was low. But you can't just lower interest rates on the whim. In order to low them you need a increase in savings, but since savings are low the only way to do it is to print the money, or in the modern age enter a number in a computer. So in order for the FED to low the interest rates so low and keep them low they have to keep increasing the money supply so they can loan it to people. This creates the problem of inflation. The more money you print the less purchasing power all the existing money has. Inflation is a hidden tax on everyone.
What are you're thought on this?
Nov. 4 (Bloomberg) -- The Federal Reserve repeated it will keep interest rates near zero for "an extended period" and specified for the first time that policy will stay unchanged as long as inflation expectations are stable and unemployment fails to decline.
"Businesses are still cutting back on fixed investment and staffing, though at a slower pace," the Federal Open Market Committee said in a statement today. "Household spending appears to be expanding, but remains constrained by ongoing job losses, sluggish income growth, lower housing wealth and tight credit," the FOMC said after meeting in Washington.
Chairman Ben S. Bernanke is trying to determine when the recovery is strong enough to withdraw the $1 trillion the Fed injected to avert a depression. The dollar declined as the Fed's statement, which followed a report last week showing the economy expanded last quarter for the first time in more than a year, signaled growth alone won't be enough to warrant tighter policy.
Officials kept their benchmark overnight lending rate at between zero and 0.25 percent, where it has been since December. The conditions they cited to keep it there are "low rates of resource utilization, subdued inflation trends, and stable inflation expectations."
"What they're saying is the economy is improving, but it's still entirely dependent on stimulus," said Chris Low, chief economist at FTN Financial in New York, who doesn't expect an interest-rate increase until next September. Fed officials are signaling that "The test for when rates have to go up, or stimulus has to be removed, ought to be inflation."
Dollar Slides
The dollar slid as much as 1.2 percent, the biggest intraday decline since Sept. 8, before trading at $1.4876 per euro at 4:09 p.m. in New York, compared with $1.4724 yesterday. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index was up 0.1 percent at 1,046.50 after rising as much as 1.5 percent.
Discussing inflation, the central bank said: "With substantial resource slack likely to continue to dampen cost pressures and with longer term inflation expectations stable, the Committee expects that inflation will remain subdued for some time."
Prices rose 1.3 percent for the 12-month period ending September, as measured by the personal consumption expenditures price index, minus food and energy, the Fed's preferred gauge. Fed officials cited a 1.7 to 2 percent long-run goal for the overall index in June.
Core Inflation
"The Fed is focused on a very low core inflation number and is assuming that it is only going to get lower," said Stephen Stanley, chief economist at RBS Securities Inc. "They are pretty worried about the low level of inflation and think they are on hold for a very long time."
The difference in yield between 10-year inflation-protected Treasury notes and nominal Treasury notes is 212 basis points, indicating that investors see consumer prices rising by 2.12 percent per year over that time. In October, consumers anticipated inflation of 2.9 percent over the next five years, up from 2.8 percent in September, according to the University of Michigan's consumer sentiment survey, released Oct. 30.
The Fed completed its $300 billion program of purchasing Treasuries last month. Today's statement said the central bank will purchase a total of $1.25 trillion of agency mortgage- backed securities and "about $175 billion of agency debt" through the first quarter of next year.
"The amount of agency debt purchases, while somewhat less than the previously announced maximum of $200 billion is consistent with the recent path of purchases and reflects the limited availability of agency debt," the statement said.
Australia, Israel
The ebb of the global crisis that caused $1.7 trillion in credit losses and writedowns has already helped spur central banks from Australia to Norway to start increasing borrowing costs. Today's unanimous statement indicates the Fed isn't yet ready to follow some of their counterparts abroad.
"We are nowhere near there," Michael Holland, chairman of New York-based Holland & Co., which oversees more than $4 billion in assets, said on Bloomberg Television. "We don't have anything approaching the position where they can start unwinding."
Record-low interest rates and Fed purchases of Treasuries and mortgage debt, combined with the Obama administration's $787 billion fiscal stimulus, helped boost gross domestic product 3.5 percent from July to September. Without the auto industry, which benefited from the government's "cash for clunkers" program, growth would have been 1.9 percent.
Commodities Rally
Stocks and commodities have rallied as a stronger global economy encourages investors to take greater risks. The Standard and Poor's 500 Index is up about 17 percent this year and crude oil prices are 80 percent higher. Gold has advanced 23 percent and touched a record of $1,096.20 an ounce in New York today.
Policy makers are "trying to add some sort of conditionality to their ability to include or exclude the 'extended period' language," said Alan Ruskin, head of currency strategy at RBS Securities Inc. in Stamford, Connecticut.
While the return to growth has aided companies including Ford Motor Co., it has yet to pay off in jobs, with employers squeezing higher output from a smaller labor pool.
Ford, the only major U.S. automaker to avoid bankruptcy, beat forecasts and posted third-quarter net income of $997 million Nov. 2, its first operating profit since early 2008 on smaller discounts and higher sales.
Job Cuts
New Brunswick, New Jersey-based Johnson & Johnson said Nov. 3 it will shrink its 117,000-member workforce by 6 percent to 7 percent as it tries to cut costs and invest in more profitable areas of its business. Jabil Circuit Inc., a Florida-based electronics manufacturer whose customers include Nokia Oyj, said Sept. 29 it plans to cut an additional 1,500 positions.
"If employment losses don't get down to a small level, we won't have income growth to support consumer spending," Kurt Karl, chief U.S. economist at Swiss RE Financial Products in New York, said before today's Fed announcement.
The Labor Department on Nov. 6 will report that the unemployment rate rose to 9.9 percent in October, from 9.8 percent the previous month, as companies cut another 175,000 jobs, according to the median forecasts in Bloomberg News surveys of economists. More Americans filed bankruptcy in October than any month since changes to bankruptcy laws in 2005.
Will Preventive Care Control Costs?

Will Preventive Care Control Costs?
Off-Topic Discussion « General Discussion
What are you're thoughts on preventive care control the costs of health care with/without government health care?
While preventive care is normally less expensive then what the outcome could be without it. But who will be able to judge when the cost of the preventive care is more cost effective then not getting it? In the end it should be let up to the individual and doctors to determine if the financial cost, time, and overall improvement to health is worth it. If government gets involved in subsidizing preventive care it will increase the demand for it. With increased demand there will a increase in prices, with the increase in prices there will be even more need for the government to subsidize more cost of preventive care. So any subsidize in government health care will just make the costs greater and greater.
In an attempt to control the aggregate healthcare costs that will be shouldered by taxpayers under his proposed system, President Obama has pushed increased reliance onpreventive care for all eligible Americans. His argument is that, because preventive care is normally much less expensive than later surgeries, increased use of these earlier, preemptive treatments will entail radical cost savings. As with many of the president's healthcare promises, this argument falls apart under rigorous examination.
The logic behind increased preventive care is simple; if an individual knows he will be afflicted with some serious and expensive malady, say a heart attack, it is typically much less expensive for him to undergo preventive procedures, in this case the insertion of vascular stents. In such a case, not only is the patient likely to save money and possibly prolong his life, but he also removes the anxiety of knowing he is at high risk for heart failure.
Preventive treatment, then, will only be purchased when it removes serious anticipated future risks, either of higher treatment costs or of serious pain or death. Any surgery requires the curtailment of other forms of consumption, so consumers will prefer to abstain from preventive care unless they know they are at high risk of high future financial or physical costs. The unregulated consumer, in an extreme example, would never purchase a surgery to prevent the prospect of future ingrown hairs.
For every disease or affliction, there is an interval of risk over which preventive care justifies its price and thus will likely be purchased. Consumers who expect that they are at extremely low risk for heart failure will almost certainly not purchase vascular stents because they believe their risk of dying of heart failure is so low that the value of preventing it is practically worthless to them.
On the other hand, there are those individuals — for example, the morbidly obese and those who have already suffered multiple heart attacks — who are almost certain to die of a heart attack. For these unfortunate consumers, the risk of death is already so certain that preventive surgery may be worthless.
There are some methods of preventive care which can almost certainly avert the risk of dying of an affliction, and for these procedures, even those extremely high-risk patients will likely decide the surgery is worth its price. The "risk threshold" for preventive care is decided on by individuals and their doctors, but like all economic decisions is influenced by price; more expensive treatments are less likely to be purchased by marginally risky consumers.
If the president's plan were applied only to cholesterol-clogged patients, it is quite clear that the preventive care would save money and lead to a positive health outcome. However, this is not a victory for Mr. Obama's plan. Patients such as these are likely to pay for preventive care with or without a government mandate or subsidy. No "cost savings" occur by compelling a group of high-risk patients to do what they already would have. In fact, any subsidies to such a group actually increase taxpayers' health burden.
It is absolutely paramount to remember in our analysis that American patients are not homogeneous mannequins smoothly distributed over one or two physical variables along a bell curve or any other type of graph. Each individual consumer is an acting, reasoning human being with a unique set of uncertain health risks and, more importantly, unique desires and risk tolerances.
The reality is that many people are at no price-justifying risk for dying early of any disease. This, for the a priori economic thinker, explains what the president believes is Americans' underutilization of preventive care: if more people had reason to believe that preventive care is worth its price, they would of course already be purchasing it. Rather, for the majority of Americans, vascular stents and other preventive treatments are simply not worth the requisite time, money, and physical invasion.
Mandating or even subsidizing preventive care for these individuals does not eliminate very many expensive late-term surgeries in the future, and thus would clearly not result in any such cost savings for the taxpayer. In fact, it is easy to see that subsidizing new preventive surgeries will result in increased costs to taxpayers.
Worse still, providing subsidies for these new and unmerited preventive surgeries not only costs tax dollars, but also comes at a cost to what mainstream economists refer to as "social welfare," because increased vascular stent consumption necessarily entails decreased consumption of another good or service.
Furthermore, the market for preventive care is also far from homogeneous. For many diseases or maladies, there are multiple methods of prevention, which each hold different potential costs and benefits for each patient. Some methods of preventive care, such as our example of vascular stents, entail a decision on the quantity of the procedure — how many blood vessels will be stented — with a diminishing marginal benefit to each additional unit of care. To expect Obama's proposed healthcare bureaucracies to calculate the cost-cutting level of subsidy for each individual method of preventive care is absurd. Instead, preventive decisions should be left to specialized doctors and their patients.
Even if we grant that Obama's health bureaucracies will somehow be able to effectively target individual patients along the "risk thresholds" for subsidized preventive treatments, it is still unclear that this will decrease aggregate financial costs. For any net cost savings to occur, we must also assume that these consumers sometimes forgo preventive care, even though it would ultimately be more cost-effective for every individual lumped into that class to pursue the preventive treatments in question. Only under these conditions would Obama's proposal serve its purpose.
However, this simple pursuit of lower aggregate spending over time is a weak justification for suppressing individual choice. Acting Man does not consume in the interests of possibly minimizing the total costs of some abstract statistical class in which he's included by regulators.
In reality, an individual health consumer chooses to consume or abstain from preventive care according to his subjective appraisal of the value of the possible extra length or quality of life he may receive as a result of the preventive care against the value of the consumption made possible by abstaining from the preventive care.
He makes this decision while taking into consideration his medically determined risk of harm from the malady and his personal tolerance for that risk. Such an intimate decision, which weighs the value of extra months or years of life and the quality of life gained or sacrificed, all while accounting for risk tolerance, literally cannot be made by budget-balancing government employees.
Obama's proposal for subsidized prevention would not only increase aggregate healthcare spending by funding unmerited preventive treatments, but would also increase the per-unit prices of those treatments. The economics here are simple subsidy economics; a subsidy for any service will decrease the effective price of that service to the consumer, increasing demand for that service along any market price. Holding supply constant, this increased demand will increase the market price for that service.
For the Obama cost plan, this is a second Achilles' heel; the greater the subsidy granted, the greater the increase in market price will be, because consumers will face a smaller and smaller portion of any treatment's real price. They will thus choose to consume more and more unmerited preventive procedures, increasing the prices of those frivolous treatments. As the price of general preventive care rises, the public will of course expect greater and greater subsidies for their treatments.
The tragic end result of this experiment will be the political need for the health bureaucracy to subsidize a higher portion of the soaring prices of a greater number of preventive treatments. To argue that this represents lower aggregate costs is pure nonsense and should be dismissed as such.
$7 $5
While increasing preventive care to cut long-term costs may seem logical at first, it is clear to see that government-mandated treatment cannot possibly lead to a more cost-effective balance between preventive treatment and future treatment.
Furthermore, we can see that any subsidy for preventive care will massively increase costs for the individual and, under Obama's plan, for the taxpayer. From these conclusions, it is obvious that only individual patients armed with the advice of their doctors can be trusted to make cost-effective decisions regarding their preferred method of care.

In Wednesday's editorial column, we quoted a lawyer for the American Civil Liberties Union, one Holly Dickson. It turns out we'd quoted her wrong--by 10 percent. We'd said she'd guesstimated that 90 percent of the ballots thrown out in Arkansas' last election because of the new voter ID law were cast by registered voters.
The correct percentage of those invalid ballots, according to Counselor Dickson, would be 100 percent.

text: [Rumor] LG Optimus G Nexus Arriving in November Along with some Major Changes to Nexus Program David Pena 3 October, 2012 7 Comments Time for another batch of rumors my Android friends. This one coming from a trusted source of the Android an Me guys. Seems that the LG Optimus G Nexus is set to arrive in November, and yes, it will be in fact called the LG Optimus G Nexus. I guess the whole flagship Nexus program is no more. OEM's will now be allowed to use their UI skins for the new Nexus phones, which I can already hear the moan and groans coming from the community. It is okay though, because there is a nice little twist that comes with that. Seems that OEM's must abide by certain strict guidelines to be in the Nexus Program. These new Nexus phones must use stock Android with 64 MB of secure memory for media streaming. The custom UI's that OEM's love to cover up that beautiful stock Android with, can be added through the new "customization center". So it sounds like if you want to use the OEM's UI skin you can, or you can just stick with stock Android which a lot of heavy users will probably do. Kind of cool if you ask me. As much as we have always hated the UI's that have covered that precious stock Android, each one has improved greatly with each version. Now we reported that Google planned on unveiling the new Nexus phone in the "next 30 days", which we figured would come with the new OS version, Android 4.2. Seems that Google and LG are planning an event where they will unveil the new phone and new OS. Want to get really excited? Another guideline these new Nexus phones must uphold, is their hardware must be able to support Android 5.0. That is correct. Looking even further ahead. Android 5.0 is rumored to be released in early 2013. Pretty exciting rumors if you ask me. The mention of not only Android 4.2, but also 5.0? That will give the fanboys a little tingle in their jingle. Okay, so we got Key lime Pie, so now Lemonhead? Licorice? Lollipop? The letter L has many possibilities, unlike that dreaded K letter that is coming up. Let us know what you guys think. You guys liking these rumored new Nexus program guidelines? Who plans on getting the LG Optimus Nexus? Source: Android an Me Kevin So does that mean in terms of software updates it'll be similar to the old nexus phones? ( like how the galaxy nesus, nexus s and all the others; were able to get jellybean and pretty much instant updates) Because i know for if its not like that, it'll be tougher to decide which nexus phone i would want. I'm stuck with a G2x with so much potential but because lack of support from LG its basically just trash. I wouldnt want LG producing my nexus phone, im scared it'll just be forgotten about. Seb chucas This sounds very promising now I'm very glad I kept my distance from the iPhone 5 Bill Surowiecki "Seems that OEM's must abide by certain strict guidelines to be in the Nexus Program. These new Nexus phones must use stock Android with 64 MB of secure memory for media streaming. The custom UI's that OEM's love to cover up that beautiful stock Android with, can be added through the new "customization center"." FUCKING BRILLIANT… I had stated some time ago that this is the way Google could fix a good deal of its problems with regard to updates. FILA So does it come out of the box with stock then you have the option for a UI later, or the other way around. Either way were see what KandyKane has to offer very soon! lol

The Republican party faces a dilemma. They claim to be kind and gentle, compassionate conservatives, while their behavior portrays the polar opposite. For example, Republicans are hell bent on condemning Obama for not using the word Islamic in conjunction with condemning terrorists. Could it be that they want to shift attention away from their own terrorist tactics?
Every other year since 2003, hundreds of Muslim Texans – families, young students, community leaders – caravan in from around the state to meet on the steps of the august Texas State Capitol building in Austin. They hope to meet lawmakers, advocate for issues important to them, and just learn about the American political process.
Previous gatherings have mostly gone without a hitch, organizers say. But on Thursday, during the seventh biennial Texas Muslim Capitol Day, the hundreds who gathered were met by a group of angry protesters, who heckled and jeered the crowd as they began – as Texas political events often do – with prayer and the singing of "The Star-Spangled Banner."
Emotions have run high as world events, including the rise of the Islamic State militant group and the terrorist massacre in Paris, have sparked pockets of anti-Muslim sentiment throughout the Western world. On Thursday, the protesters, about two dozen members of the Patriot Defense Foundation [Hate Delinked], shouted slogans such as "Mohammed is dead," "Go back to Baghdad," and "Remember 9/11." Some of the group's signs read "Save America, Stop Islam" and "Go Home and Take Obama with You."…
Inserted from <Christian Science Monitor>
It was actually far worse than the article lets on. Rachel Maddow covered this event in detail, and others, as part of her coverage of Obama's statement on bigotry.
The problem here is obvious. Obama seems right to us. We are not terrorists, and America is not at war with Islam. O'Lielly and his declaration of Holy War seem right to Republicans. The Republican Party are the terrorists, and they are at war with Islam. Sadly, we are confronted with terrorism on two fronts, one foreign and one domestic. The most dangerous terrorists of all are the elected kind.

Congratulations! You have made your fantasy football playoffs. Now is not the time to try something new. That being said, Thursday Night Football gives you the Philadelphia Eagles against the slipping Cincinnati Bengals. Do you have a play here?QuarterbacksOkay last week Nick Foles was the No. 2 fantasy quarterback. He threw for 381 yards with two passing touchdowns and one running touchdown.Steady big boy, those stats were against one of the weakest passing defenses in the league. Don't get me wrong, Foles looked good. But who are you going to sit? If you are in the playoffs, your quarterback got you there. If you have traveled to the playoffs on the back of Robert Griffin III, don't jump off now. Yes, he may be a little banged up. Yes, he screamed "like a man" when injured. But this is RGIII against the Cleveland Browns.His dad said he will play. Keep an eye on what Mike Shanahan says. If RGIII is playing you are playing him. Flirt all you want with Foles, you are taking RGIII to ...

Customer Reviews
A great photo editing app. my husband is a professional photographer. Like all of us he also has learned to love his iPhone. I would like more features. But it does many critical editing functions. Reduce noise, clear fog, tint, shadows and highlights are just a few. I love your effects as well. Not needing a monthly subscription has been crucial to my purchasing this app. My husband was a. Navy Photographer and while darkroom was his specialty the ongoing monthly subscription is just NOT in our budget. Thank you for making so many features available for a reasonable price.
Best photo app out there
I've tried May of the photo editing apps out there. This one is by far the best one for my needs. I mainly shoot professionally and edit on my computer, but sometimes I take phone photos and it's nice to have this app to do basic editing. The filters aren't too great, but that's not what Photoshop is about. One of the biggest pros to this app is the highlight/shadows control. It is fantastic and almost as good as the computer software! None of the other apps are even close to having the same quality for highlights/shadows.
Problem returning to app
This is one of my favorite apps, but this version has a bug. When I use the app, 'minimize' it so it's still running in the background, and then return to edit another photo, it will be frozen and unresposive. To get it to work, I've had to fully shut down the app and restart it. It's really annoying. The other annoying thing Adobe does is when you try to leave feedback directly with them instead of in the app store, they require you to create a login. I guess they don't really want feedback because I'm not creating a login just for that.

Carol Howard Merritt surveys the religious landscape
As progressive Christians become more relevant, can we learn from the religious right?
On many accounts, it would be good to learn from the religious right and their demise. What happened? Why did they fall into irrelevancy? Can we avoid the same problems? How?
A conversation with Diana on her new book
As we read about the rise of the spiritual but not religious, how do we respond? Do we think of it as a threat? A challenge? Or do we resonate with the category?
Why putting more financial burden on younger clergy is not the answer
As common sense dictates, an insurance company needs a good percentage of healthy people in order to do well. Why would our insurance plan give incentives to retirement-age clergy to work longer while making it cost more for clergy with dependents?
I've participated in a few writing projects that I need to let you know about.
What do you do to connect with the emotional life of the text?
How do we respond to our anxious culture during this election cycle?
The fear is palpable. The Obama supporters feel that a Romney presidency will completely erode our safety net, so that only the rich will survive. Women feel like any gains that they have eked out in society for the last few decades will be taken away completely. The Romney supporters think that we need to get someone in there who knows about business, or else our economy will collapse. They worry about the looming deficit and an oversized government, so they want Romney to make the tough decisions.
How can we idenitify jealousy and use it to recognize our calling?
I get jealous. I try not to, but I hope that I've also begun to recognize and constructively use the emotion. Here are some dos and don'ts that I practice to make sure that the little green monster doesn't take over my life.
When someone you distrust shows up at church
How do we respond when a good cause becomes a fad?
Social media can reduce activism to a fad—something that we take part in because a particular Twitter hashtag is trending, a video has become viral or a Facebook cause has become popular. It can ignore the hard work that has been taking place over decades and discount a long-term strategy that a community might have.
Does pointing out the needs of your family help or hurt the next generation?
I always feel like using the mom card highlights some sort of gender defect. My husband was a work-at-home dad for three years, and he has been just as involved in the diaper changing, sick days and parent/teacher meetings as I have. But I always have a feeling that when a guy uses the parent card, people think, What a great dad. But when women use it, people think, What an inept worker.

Reviewed By Ryan M (Gansevoort, NY) Reviewed for a 2010 Toyota Highlander —6/17/2015 7:42 AM
Pretty much what I expected for the price. Quality is better than what I was expecting and holds well to trunk carpeting with no slip. My dog loves the additional traction he gets with the rigid top. Top rivits aren't very deep, so I don't think it will hold liquids well but will certainly protect carpet from dirt/mud/elements. The only complaint I have is that the cut/size isn't the best. There are some very small gaps on the sides around the trunk. Overall happy with the purchase.

Closer Look: How Officials' Obsession with Statistics Drives Number Fudging
The falsification of statistics is not surprising news in China. In the most recent case of number fudging, statistics officials in Henglan County, Guangdong Province, vastly overstated local gross industrial output to an extent that was unusual even in a country where economic data is routinely massaged.
The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said on June 14 that statistics officials in Henglan inflated the industrial output of 71 companies to 8.5 billion yuan from the actual 2.2 billion yuan. They were also accused of falsifying business data without the companies' knowledge.
