I am a career educator who has lived in Chattanooga most of my life. I have always been fortunate to have good medical insurance as a teacher and now I benefit from Medicare coverage with a part B supplement as a retired teacher.
That being said, there are many people in my circle of friends and extended family who cannot afford health care coverage. My niece, Becca who has returned to school in order to better her work situation, my best friend, Lindsay who is a choreographer and teaches on the adjunct faculty at Chattanooga State and a public middle/high school in addition to working with our local community theater group and teaching children and adult classes there. Neither of them can afford health care, nor can my manicurist, Nikki.
What happens when they need to access health care? They must go to an emergency room or a doc in the box for treatment. Obama care could help all three.
I think every man, woman and child in America should have health care coverage. We are cheating the very people who are the backbone of our country.
Obamacare can make health care work better for all. It prioritizes the health our families and ensure access to free preventive care and protect us from abuses by insurance companies. It will give families the security they deserve and provide more freedom and control over their health care choices and quality of care.
* * *
I read with great interest you selling of Obamacare....but I have a question...you seem to think that everyone is entitled to healthcare even if they can not pay...so that means that you believe that the Docs/nurses/techs have to provide their time, education and experience without being paid.
I wonder if you can explain that if Obamacare is so great, why are there so many exemptions, including Congress.
Roy L. Ellis
Mr. Ellis,
Are you saying that those who cannot afford health insurance should not be entitled to basic healthcare? Children? The elderly? I really hope I misunderstood your statement, but I'm sure I didn't. We are not talking about people being "entitled" to a new car or a steak dinner here, and your callous response is exactly why something has to be done.
Do I feel that the President's health plan is the answer? Maybe, maybe not. But I don't see you offering any solutions. Just sarcasm and disregard. The only thing missing from your letter is the quote "let them eat cake."
I'm ashamed for you.

It is common to compute background-error variances from an ensemble of forecasts, in order to calculate either climatological or flow-dependent estimates. However, the finite size of the ensemble induces a sampling noise, which degrades the accuracy of the variance estimation. An idealized 1D framework is firstly considered, to show that the spatial structure of sampling noise is relatively small-scale, and is closely related to the background-error correlations.
This motivates investigations on local spatial averaging, which is here applied to ensemble-based variance fields in this 1D context. It is shown that a spatial averaging, manually optimized, helps to significantly reduce the sampling noise. This provides estimates which are as accurate as those derived from a much bigger ensemble. The dependencies of this optimization on the error correlation length-scale and on the heterogeneity of the variance and length-scale fields are also illustrated. These results are next confirmed in a more realistic 2D problem, by considering the current operational version of the Arpège background-error covariance matrix.
Finally, the possibility to objectively and automatically optimize the filtering is explored. The idea is to apply the usual linear estimation theory and to use signal/noise ratios in order to calculate an optimal filter. The efficiency of this objective filtering is illustrated in the idealized 1D framework. Copyright © 2008 Royal Meteorological Society

GP surgery safe despite doctor's swine flu
Saturday 06 June 2009
A GP's surgery was declared safe today despite one if its partners contracting swine flu.
More than 21 close contacts of Dr Eleanor Mair Williams of the Skewen Surgery near Neath, south Wales, are said to be well.
They have all been offered antiviral medicine to prevent them getting the flu.
Dr Williams started felling ill at work on Monday after a holiday to America. Two days later she was confirmed as being only the second person to have caught swine flu in Wales.
The National Public Health Service (NPHS) for Wales said they were taking the unusual step of identifying Dr Williams, with her full consent, because "of concerns that patients may not visit their GP if they fell ill for fear of catching the infection".
Dr Jorg Hoffmann, consultant in communicable disease control for the NPHS, said: "All necessary action has been taken to make sure it is safe to visit the Skewen Surgery without risk of catching swine flu.
"Dr Williams and other staff at the practice have worked closely with us after she was tested positive and I am grateful for their support in identifying the patients she had seen on Monday."
The 21 close contacts include 14 adults and seven children and are made up of surgery visitors, colleagues and social contacts.
Dr Williams said: "I am reassured that public health action has been taken to ensure the safety of my patients. I am recovering from a mild bout of flu and will only return to work when I am completely well and have completed the five days of treatment."
In the meantime, the Skewen Surgery remains open for business as usual.
Dr Hoffman added: "We continue to advise that anyone who has flu-like symptoms and has travelled to one of the affected areas should stay at home and phone their GP or NHS Direct Wales on 0845 46 47.
"People should not go to accident and emergency departments or to their GP surgery without ringing first, as this may risk spreading the infection. It also places undue pressure on the emergency services."

Quite possibly the quintessential cinematic personification of the sexually repressed high school gym teacher, Nancy Parsons had a curiously interesting and diverse catalog of film roles, though that of fearsome phys ed nightmare Beulah Balbricker in Porky's and its sequels will likely live eternally in the hearts of teen sex-comedy aficionados as her defining role.
A native of Lake Minnetonka, MN, Parsons' passion for Shakespeare led her to California at the age of 16, where she studied acting at the Pasadena Playhouse. Though she found work in the L.A. theater scene early on, Parsons soon turned away from acting in favor of marriage and family life. Her marital bliss short-lived, Parsons returned to her passion after her divorce, finding small roles in such films as I Never Promised You a Rose Garden (1977). Though her comic abilities were hinted at in the 1980 Bill Murray comedy Where the Buffalo Roam, that same year yielded her breakout role in the horror-spoof Motel Hell, playing opposite Jimmie Dean wannabe Rory Calhoun in the gruesomely humorous tale of a farmer with questionable practices in sausage manufacturing. Following the next year with Pennies From Heaven and Porky's, Parsons' fate was sealed as a talented and versatile actress with a good sense of humor.
The following years brought Parsons a number of comedic roles, always shifting effortlessly between the dramatic and comedic with roles in such polar opposites as Porky's Revenge (1985) and Steel Magnolias (1989). Parsons also appeared frequently on television, in roles ranging from Charlie's Angels to Star Trek: The Next Generation (on the set of which she frequently traded Shakespearian dialogue with fellow Bard-fan Patrick Stewart). Continuing her television work through the '90s with recurring roles in Days of our Lives, one of Parsons' fondest memories of that decade's film appearances was her role in The Doctor (1991). A fan of actor William Hurt, Parsons cherished the opportunity to appear with Hurt on film. Though ailing in health in the later '90s, Parsons continued to appear on television in L.A. Law and The Pretender, before her death in early 2001 after an extended battle with diabetes.

Epilepsy Treatments: Keeping Seizures Under Control
Epilepsy Treatment: Finding the Right Medication
Taking epilepsy drugs has always been a fact of life for most people living with epilepsy. And until the 1990s, choosing an epilepsy drug was comparatively simple: only a handful were available.
In the past 15 years, epilepsy treatment for controlling seizures has come a long way. The number of available epilepsy drugs has more than doubled -- improving treatment, but making decisions more complex. Finding the best epilepsy drug for you, experts tell WebMD, involves equal parts art and science -- and a bit of chance.
Recommended Related to Epilepsy
One possible option for some children with epilepsy is surgery. You may be frightened by the idea of your child having brain surgery, a treatment reserved for a select few, but improvements have made these operations much safer and more effective. "In the old days, doctors would wait 20 years before trying surgery in a person with epilepsy who didn't respond to medication," says William R. Turk, MD, chief of the Neurology Division at the Nemours Children's Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. "That...
Read the Childhood Epilepsy Treatments article > >
"It's not guesswork, but there is definitely an element of trial and error," says Steven Schachter, MD, professor of neurology at Harvard Medical School. "Knowing ahead of time which drug or combination will be best for a particular person with epilepsy -- we're just not there yet."
That's not for lack of trying. Doctors consider a raft of information about you when recommending an initial epilepsy drug: your seizure type, age, sex, medical conditions, and other drugs you're taking. In the end, though, choosing an epilepsy drug is an educated leap of faith.
"We don't have any reliable way of telling if someone will respond to a particular medicine, or the degree of side effects they'll experience," says Schachter. "It's not like choosing an antibiotic, where a culture in the lab can tell us which drug will work."
Though inexact, the process usually works. Half of people with a new diagnosis of seizure are seizure-free with the first epilepsy drug they try. Whenever possible, a single seizure medication should be used to control seizures; however, many people require combination therapy to achieve this goal. Complete seizure control with minimal side effects occurs with a single drug in 70%-80% of patients with partial and generalized seizures; with combination therapy, this is attained in an additional 10%-15% of patients.
That same success rate raises the stakes in choosing a medicine, experts say. "Most people stick with what works," says Orrin Devinsky, MD, director of New York University Comprehensive Epilepsy Center. "So if someone's going to be on that medicine for 10, 20, 30 years, it should have the fewest side effects possible."

She wrote, "A (sic) eagle attacked my 2 chi's today, my girl pup is at the vet, my boy is missing, between my cat and my pups, I'm about to fckn (f**king) kill things... I am so incredibly sad."
Moakler later told website HollyScoop.com, "I live in a neighbourhood where coyotes and hawks are prevalent. We took the dogs outside to go to the bathroom and they were attacked by a hawk. My one puppy may have lost an eye; we won't know for a couple weeks and the bird flew off with my other puppy. It was like out of a movie."
It's not the first time Moakler has lost a pet to local predators: "I have lost two animals in a month from coyotes and hawks. I even installed coyote fences."
And now she's warning her neighbours to be on the look out for predators: "I just hope people with small dogs will start taking precautions with their pets outside and try to protect them from predators. I hope people just remember not to take things for granted as you never know when they can be gone, both people and fur babies."

Vietnam says China's plan to move its first deep-water drilling rig into the disputed South China Sea, one of Asia's most volatile hotspots, is illegal and has called for the rig to be removed from what it says is Vietnam's territorial waters.
The $1 billion offshore oil rig called Haiyang Shiyou 981 owned by the China's state-run CNOOC oil company has been drilling south of Hong Kong.
Maritime Safety Administration of China (MSAC) on Saturday published an announcement on its website saying it prohibits all marine vessels entering into a one mile radius of the Haiyang Shiyou 981's South China Sea drilling work.
Vietnam's Foreign Ministry spokesman on Sunday objected to the move, saying the oil rig coordinates were within Vietnam's exclusive economic zone and continental shelf, about 120 nautical miles off its coast.
"All activities of foreign countries in Vietnam's waters without Vietnam's permission are illegal and worthless, Vietnam resolutely opposed," spokesman Le Hai Binh said in a statement.
Vietnam's state Oil and Gas Group PetroVietnam sent a letter to CNOOC on Sunday saying it strongly objected to China's action and "insisted CNOOC stop immediately the illegal activities and pull out Haiyang Shiyou 981 of Vietnam's waters".
Despite Hanoi's objection, MSAC on Monday expanded the prohibited area around its oil rig to a three miles radius.
CNOOC, China's top offshore oil producer, in 2012 invited foreign companies to jointly develop nine blocks in the western part of the South China Sea, a move Vietnam said was illegal because the blocks overlap its territorial waters.
China and the 10 countries of the Association of South East Asian Nations, which will hold an ASEAN summit in Myanmar on May 10-11, are trying to negotiating a code of conduct to ease tensions in the South China Sea.

A response was sent telling me you would do everything possible for it to arrive before Christmas. Today, Dec. 23rd, 2014 the ornament arrived in the mail! I cannot thank everyone enough for trying so hard just for one customer. My mom will think this is the greatest gift she's ever received and I can not thank you enough.
