The last Plains Indian war chief still fights for his home, his people and their way of life
Many of the Crow tribe saw the preservation of their way of life as a battle and they were honored to have a legitimate war chief, a man proven on the battlefield, as the leader of this fight.
Medicine Crow, having grown up with one foot on the reservation and one foot in the white man's world, and having succeeded there, was uniquely positioned to help his people move forward, says Herman Viola, curator emeritus at the Smithsonian, who has worked closely with Medicine Crow preserving Crow history. "Many Crow Indians didn't want their children to be educated because they were afraid they would lose their traditional Crow values. Much of what Medicine Crow did for his people was just being a good role model."
As tribal spokesman he gave hundreds of speeches and lectures — some of them to U.S. government officials championing the needs of his people. Other speeches were to his own people describing to them their glorious past as something to be proud of.
Medicine Crow was the Crow tribal historian for more than 50 years, writing what Viola calls "some of the most influential works about Indian history and culture. He realized early on he needed to preserve and pass on this information." He has written six books documenting, and preserving, a large section of Crow history.
He has also gathered numerous oral histories from older generations, single handedly preserving a large section of Crow history and stories that otherwise would have been lost forever.
Later in his life, Medicine Crow began being officially recognized for his many life contributions. President Barack Obama awarded Medicine Crow the Presidential Medal of Freedom — America's highest civilian award — for his contributions as historian, author, anthropologist, veteran and the last living Plains Indian war chief. He also was awarded the Bronze Star for his acts of heroism on the battlefield during World War II. In 2008, France awarded him the Legion d'honneur, in recognition of the time he traversed the mine field while under enemy fire to retrieve the explosives needed to blow up the German bunkers on the Siegfried Line.
Throughout his long, illustrious life, Medicine Crow has taken many forays into the white man's world, but he has always returned to his home at the heart of the Crow Reservation in Lodge Grass, where, like the soldier and war chief that he is, he continues his fight to protect his home, his people and their way of life.

The Potter Violin Company
For the past couple of years, my son has been renting a cello from this violin shop in Bethesda, Maryland. There's a wonderfully ramshackle, Old World feel to the place, and when we were given a Knight training assignment to create an audio slide show, Potter's seemed like just the spot. Thanks to proprietor Dalton Potter and his staff for letting me look and listen behind the scenes. (Note: an earlier iteration of this slideshow, sans audio, and with a few different pictures, can be seen here.)

Recent changes to support-requestshttps://sourceforge.net/p/openmodeller/support-requests/2010-07-30T22:40:40Zenvironmental distance- ascii to grid2010-07-30T22:40:40Z2010-07-30T22:40:40ZVirginiahttps://sourceforge.net/u/vircap/https://sourceforge.net096fd23fb6899ee4112ebb52037fcb2c2edd6812

I am using the environmental distance model and I have imported the ascii grid file into arcinfo. After that, since I needed to see the attribute table, I exported the ascii grid to a grid format. Now, when I open the attribute table, I can see a column with the presence probability and another one with the number of cells that have that probability... but I don´t have a row per cell... i would like to have individual rows, one for each cell with the corresponding probability...since I want to select individual cells and do some math with them after that...
 is there a way to achieve that?

thanks in advance!

temporal specific layer files 2008-11-13T22:04:54Z2008-11-13T22:04:54ZJennifer McKinneyhttps://sourceforge.net/u/jennifershark/https://sourceforge.nete3c4749d3d86002ceb9044388e5e573f02ce9634

1. Is there a way to add different environmental layer files, by season for example, that correlate with the occurrence data at a specified time? Is there a way for the program to incorporate all the occurrence data with its specific environmental parameters for each point? Meaning we would have different SST & chlorophyll layers for each month, for example.
 2. Does openModeller have predictive capabilities? After we create the model, can we import new environmental files and have an output of predicted presence according to the variables in the layer?

Layer file formats2008-11-10T15:40:32Z2008-11-10T15:40:32ZJennifer McKinneyhttps://sourceforge.net/u/jennifershark/https://sourceforge.net833e0974e0acdca8e21bb70df3938d6c8ab4fe8e

I would like to download daily, or weekly composite remote sense images for SST, SSH & Chl-a to use for analysis. How would I need to transform and export these images to make them applicable in open modeller?

What are the formatting requirements for layer files that can be used in openModeller?

Hi Tim,
 1.-
 Thanks a lot for your answer.
 2.-
 Does om_console_debug.exe have the same problem:
 "This is a known issue with the 1.0.5 release - it will be fixed in 1.0.6 (it doesnt relate to file permissions)."?
 3.-
 In fact we are installing a GIS soft here, but until learn how to use it:
 Have you any set of *.asc masks for
 3.1.- North America
 3.2.- South America
 3.3.- Africa
 3.4.- Europe
 3.5.- Asia?
 Thanks a lot again for your help.

Eire we go, at last! The BBC reports that the Republic of Ireland will now permit same-sex couples to wed.
It is not yet known when and where the first same-sex wedding will be held.
But the first people to be affected are same-sex couples who have already wed legally abroad. Their marriages are now automatically recognised by the state.
They include Orla Howard and her wife Dr Grainne Courtney, who were married in the United States in May 2013.
The new rules follow a referendum in May in which Irish voters overwhelmingly supported the change.
Ireland was late to the gay rights party, only decriminalizing homosexual acts in 1993. But now it is the first country to legalize same-sex marriage by popular vote.
Ireland hasn't just said "Yes"... Ireland has said: "F❤CK YEAAHHHH"— Aodhán Ó Ríordáin TD (@AodhanORiordain) May 23, 2015
This leaves Northern Ireland as the last holdout in the Atlantic Archipelagos1; though about 70% of locals support same-sex marriage, conservative protestants in government have apparently used procedural measures to prevent the law being voted upon.

Aodhán Ó Ríordáin the Irish Minister of State for New Communities, Culture and Equality, announced that his government is opening safe injection sites, will introduce a new Misuse of Drugs Bill bill in early 2016 that will decrminalise possession of "small amounts" of drugs including heroin, cocaine, and marijuana, and "as far as possible drug addiction should be removed from the criminal justice system."

In conservative Ireland, homosexuality remained illegal until 1993. Even divorce only became an option in 1997. But times have changed. The first major international plebiscite on gay marriage is poised to deliver an overwhelming vote in favor of extending the institution to same-sex couples.
"If the Irish can vote "Yes," the thought goes, anyone can," writes Amy Davidson in The New Yorker. "If they can see how a conservative belief in the institution of marriage and in the unity of families, and an atavistic desire to be present at the wedding of one's own children, translate into support for same-sex marriage so can, say, Mississippians."
The campaigns, for and against, served to illustrate the broader divisions in Irish society. The No campaign, in particular, made sharp use of fear as a motif, identifying wholesome Catholics as the real victims of intolerance. But the church has paid a high price for its longtime abuses: polls have support for gay marriage at about 70%, though there is some question about the accuracy of polling.
Even if it's close, the pace of change in Ireland has been remarkable. A 2013 International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association map of local support for same-sex relationships put Ireland at only 36%, though it took into account factors other than public opinion.
Here's a "Yes campaign" video:

Update: Irish TD Stephen Donnelly namechecked this post in the Irish Parliament. Go, Stephen!
Ireland leads the EU in Freedom of Information fees, and they're the only EU nation that charges anything for an introductory query. Now they're raising those fees, potentially to infinity, through a law that charges you €15 per "unit" of government work necessary to answer your query. "Unit" isn't defined (government agencies get to make it up as they go along) and you have no way of predicting in advance how many units of work will go into your query.
This is actually a worsening of the already terrible FOI bill, which allowed Irish bureaucrats to determine reasonableness of queries based on how hard they'd be to answer if concerned records kept on paper -- even if those records were, actually, in a database that could be queried with a few keypresses.
Irish politicians have taken extraordinary measures to protect the state from the people finding out what it's up to. This is alarming on its face, and would be bad news even if Ireland was a paragon of good governance, and not a nation in economic meltdown that is subjecting its people to brutal austerity after being one of the centres of a corrupt investment bubble. Read the rest
When the Irish government updated its Freedom of Information law, it promised something fit for the computer era. To say it did not deliver is rather an understatement.
The new bill (PDF) says: "the FOI body shall take reasonable steps to search for and extract the records to which the request relates, having due regard to the steps that would be considered reasonable if the records were held in paper format."
Get that? The standard for whether a FOI request is reasonable is whether it would be easy to get if the records were on paper and in a filing cabinet. If the records can be retrieved from a database with one click, but would take a hundred years with a filing cabinet, then the records can remain secret forever, because clicking once is deemed unreasonable.

The Catholic Church threatened to excommunicate Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny if he held a scheduled vote on Ireland's new abortion law. He responded:
Everybody's entitled to their opinion here but as explained to the Cardinal and members of the church my book is the constitution and the constitution is determined by the people. That's the people's book. We live in a Republic and I have a duty and responsibility as head of Government to legislate in respect of what the people's wishes are.

Google have recently released this feature for Chrome, however there are currently several bugs associated with it, especially on Linux. This feature will come, but may take time (anything from days to months, though Chrome is usually quite good at fixing such problems).
Alternatively you could use the official Docs PDF/PowerPoint Viewer to automatically view PDF files in Google Documents.

Although the Rena oil spill stopped Mike Antrobus fishing for
several months last year, damage from the disaster couldn't
compare to the disappearance of his 10.4m gill-netting vessel
Star Trek from its moorings in Mt Maunganui's Pilot Bay this
He had been in the process of gaining a safe ship management
certificate and insuring the boat. Its loss could cost him as
much as $65,000.
One of a handful of private commercial fishermen operating
from Tauranga, Mr Antrobus has worked the locally well-known
vessel for almost a decade.
He bought it two years ago and was still paying it off when a
local noticed it gone early on Tuesday morning.
Tauranga police have since received a report of the
Carey-style, turquoise-coloured vessel leaving Tauranga
Harbour the following day.
While his vessel and many others in the bay have been
targeted by thieves, he knew of none that had been taken.
"And certainly not a commercial boat. You just don't steal
them. I've talked to quite a few of the boat owners here and
they're all saying it's quite a concern."
Whoever took the boat would probably have gained entry by
smashing a window - and would have had the boating knowledge
to operate it. The Star Trek had enough fuel to go about 500
nautical miles, and Mr Antrobus has notified fishing
companies and marinas across the coast.
There are about 3500 inshore commercial fishing vessels
nationwide, meaning they are at less risk of being stolen.
"They're relatively distinctive and hard to conceal - it's
not as though they're like your Toyotas and Holdens that
blend in," said Senior Sergeant Martin Paget of the police
maritime unit.
Smaller craft were most commonly targeted and some larger
boats such as launches and yachts been taken for sale in
other countries, but commercial boats were seldom among them,
he said.
In other cases vessels were simply stripped of electronic
"It might have been taken because there was something of
value on there someone wanted, but until we find it, I could
speculate as much as anyone else could."

The diabetes drug metformin encourages new neuron growth in the brain and enhances memory in mice, according to a new study by University of Toronto investigators and their collaborators (Wang J et al. Cell Stem Cell. 2012;11[1]:23-35).
The diabetes drug metformin promotes neurogenesis and enhances memory in mice.
The group's previous work revealed that the atypical protein kinase C–CBP pathway directs neural stem cells to differentiate into mature neurons. Others had found that the same pathway is important in liver cells for the metabolic effects of the drug metformin.

I took a 320 gig hard drive, shrunk the partition for Windows to 40 gigabytes, and cloned the partition. I'm trying to restore onto a 250 gig drive. I keep getting either a failed partition table, or clonezilla asking if the disk is too small. I've disabled size checking and anything to do with partitioning. I've tried everything and I still can't figure this out. Even tried DD, but when creating the initial partition, gparted fails with "Not a block device, refusing to create...."
Any thoughts? I have yet to find an issue like this since my partition is shrunken.

Epilepsy Health Center
Death Rate High Among People With Persistent Seizures
Dec. 22, 2010 -- Researchers who followed 245 children with epilepsy into adulthood found that 24% died over a 40-year period, a rate that was three times higher than expected in the general population.
More than half (55%) of these deaths were related to epilepsy, says researcher Shlomo Shinnar, MD, PhD, director of the comprehensive epilepsy management center at Children's Hospital at Montefiore Medical Center in New York City.
The increased risk of death was limited to people who had not been seizure-free for at least five years and those who had another neurologic condition, particularly severe cognitive impairment, he tells WebMD.
The good news: About half of the children outgrew their seizures and their risk of dying was no higher than expected, Shinnar says.
"The findings reinforce the importance of patients and doctors taking epilepsy very seriously and doing their best not only to control seizures, but to achieve seizure freedom," Shinnar says.
"It's complete remission that eliminates the higher risk of death -- not [having] fewer seizures," he says.
The new study appears in the Dec. 23 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.
Persistent Seizures Major Risk Factor for Dying
The study involved children who were living in Finland in 1964 and who had epilepsy, defined as having had at least two unprovoked seizures.
Over the next 40 years, 60 of them died, 33 due to epilepsy-related causes, typically seizures or suspected seizures.
People whose seizures persisted into adulthood were at the highest risk of dying:
- Only four deaths occurred among 103 participants who hadn't had a seizure in the past five years and who were not taking medication at the time of death, an annual rate of 1.5 deaths per 1,000 person-years.
- There were five deaths among 35 people who were in remission and who were taking medication, a rate of 11.8 deaths per 1,000 person-years.
- There were 51 deaths among 107 people who had not been seizure-free for at least five years, a rate of 15.9 deaths per 1,000 person-years.
Achieving Seizure Freedom
Shinnar stresses that parents of children with epilepsy should not "freak out and think their child is going to die.

I installed the Ajax Event Calendar (great plugin by the way) the other day. I just got around to starting to use it and I noticed that trying to rename existing categories or adding new ones leads me to a blank white screen when I try to submit. If I back out, nothing has changed - no new categories.
Also, I've seen in the instructions that it mentions being able to use a color picker to change the category color, but it doesn't show up.
I'm on the latest version of WordPress, I'm on the latest version of the Event Calendar plugin. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the plugin numerous times since I ran in to this issue.
Any ideas?

Arts Things I Saw at Bumbershoot Yesterday
In about eight hours, I managed to squeeze in the following delights:
â¢Twenty minutes of Jeremy Enigk.
â¢Twenty minutes of Mike Daisey.
â¢Twenty minutes of Mates of State.
The rest of the time was spent in line, squeezing through the fellow crowd members, and browsing the trinkets. It would've been nice to see more. I also ate a hot dog and a third of a funnel cake (those things SUCK).
I could be wrong, but it seems like the elimination of Friday made the audience denser and more desperate to cram it all in. I'm not complaining; Bumbershoot is a cool event, with lots of good features that attract a more diverse audience than would normally attend any of these events if they were held independently (there were probably more African Americans, for example, at the two indie rock show fragments I saw than at all the I.R. shows I've seen this year combined). Not that diversity alone is its own reward, but there's something to be said for art that can withstand being performed in front of people who aren't already in its cheering section. There's a strong sense of being out among people who only leave their houses once a year. I think it's great that Bumbershoot gets them out of their Kirklands and into the world. And I think it's great that standard-issue city folk are forced to be shoulder-to-shoulder with them. It can make for an uncomfortable mash-up of Seattles: old and new, suburban and urban, pre-fashionable and effortlessly chic. And every possible thing in-between (faux-hawks included). Though my heart was screaming to leave, my brain felt like this had to be a positive jamto be taken out of your zone of comfort and forced to be cheek-by-tie-dyed-fanny-pack with the same people you scream at on the freeway (or who scream at you on the street even as they try to run your bikes over): surely, that is city life. At least in this city.

Comfort Inn, TF Green Airport, Warwick
The Comfort Inn is an older hotel, but conveniently located right next to Providence's airport, called TF Green, and very close to several restaurants including Bertucci's and Legal Seafood. In fact it is so close to the airport, you can very easily walk to the hotel, as two in our group did one morning. They also offer complimentary shuttle service to and from the airport 24/7, via a shuttle that is shared with the Sheraton next door.
The hotel has a pub--called the Flight Deck--plenty of free parking, free wireless high-speed internet access, free breakfast with hot waffles starting at 4:30 a.m., coffee in the rooms, and a fitness center. They even have a Tombstone Pizza vending machine near the lobby. They also offer small conference/meeting facilities.
The 201 guest rooms leave a bit to be desired. Of our three rooms, one had a broken A/C unit and in another, the key failed to work after the first time in the room. The rooms were definitely good enough for the price. They do allow pets, if you pay $50 extra per room.
We paid around $105 a night to stay here, about half the price of the nicer hotels in downtown Providence just 6 miles away.

Sportsman's inn: Hostel or Hostile?
The Sportsman's Inn is a dodgy looking place. I ended up there because the price of rooms in Downtown Providence had skyrocketed over May '05 graduation weekend. At check-in I noticed the owner(? )opening xxx dvd's and putting them into a sorter! There is even an exotic dance club located on the ground floor of the hotel (NOT topless). The rooms vary in size and the front desk will show you options. The rooms definitely have that Hunter Thompson-has-just-left-the-building atmosphere. The rugs are very worn and the cabinets and shelves are very battered. Definitely B.Y.O.hangers (and cell phone)!! A pair of rubber slippers is also recommended for walking around your room and bathroom. They are strict about having you get out by 11 a.m. (funny for such a place that looks like its tenants need to rest-in to salvage their hangovers). A strong rap-rap-rap on the door is your walk-up call to reality. On the plus side, the staff keeps a pretty good eye on who walks in and out. You cannot beat the location which is convenient to everywhere worth walking to. John was especially helpful in orienting me. For $40 to $60 a night this is a good option for independent male travelers (not females!) who don't mind a Y.M.C.A. hostel-like experience.
Great location. Cheap rooms. In house entertainment.

Sportsman Inn: I've never been here ( I swear)
This place is very unique. It's a strip club with a hotel upstairs. It also tries to appeal to the business traveler.
This place isn't for families, so leave little Johnny and Kelly at home.
it advertises " clean rooms" But I can't get past the location.

When you have to be away from home, especially on someone else's dime.... this place will make you feel like you're at home, except that somebody keeps making my bed!!
This is NOT a photo of Residence Inn, but rather a unique German style building I found.

The Providence Marriott is a...
The Providence Marriott is a nice moderately priced hotel. The hotel is clean and maintained. While the Bluefin restaurant in the hotel serves good food, they are pricy for what they do serve - don't expect to be able to pick-up a breakfast for less than $10 US.
The hotel's location is a bright and a sore spot for me. While it was very close to downtown (within a 15 minute to downtown and the state capitol building), nothing else was really close by - no small restaurants, no convience stores, no strip malls.
My stay at the Marroitt was $159 US per night. I'm not sure about the average price in the area but it was a little higher than the Sheraton in Burlington, Vermont.

Motel 6 PROVIDENCE - SEEKONK: Cheap motel
A typical Motel 6. No breakfast but free coffee in the morning. Clean rooms.
Prices starting at $49.99 per person for one night, which is a little more than for the usual Motel 6.

Fishing has apparently been good along the Cape Cod Canal.
I bike along the canal on the Bourne side every so often and have noticed it is a popular place with retirees and older couples, some who have second homes in the area.
The men fish alot, and this afternoon, as I rode, I passed one striped bass after another that had been caught and placed on the grass or in a bike basket for the trip home. Many of the men arrive by bikes, equipped to carry their fishing gear and catch.

I want to set up a cron job which will execute a command every hour. However, I want that this command should be started at 10 A.M and should run every hour till 4 P.M. This job is to run daily between these times. The command is nothing but a call to a Perl script. Following crontab entry runs fine and invokes the script every hour

Is there a way to limit the timings of this cron job so that it runs only between 10 A.M and 4 P.M ?

Valle Nuevo, Dominican Republic – For their inaugural service project, Roger Williams University's Engineers Without Borders student club traveled deep into the mountains of northern Dominican Republic last week to provide a design solution for a serious public health issue.
Their task was to replace open-fire cooking – which has been causing chronic respiratory illness in women and children in Valle Nuevo – with an inexpensive, efficient method that channeled smoke outdoors. It was an effort that kicked off last fall via the Foundation for International Medical Relief of Children (FIMRC), which matched the club's expertise to a community need at one of the nonprofit's project sites around the globe.
BRISTOL, R.I. – On the heels of Roger Williams University announcing the launch of a student-led Conservation Corps to address climate change through reforestation, the University will continue building on sustained efforts with a day full of environmental-education activities at the annual Earth Fest on Wednesday and then join Rhode Island leaders a week later for a tree planting ceremony to celebrate 25 years of the Rhode Island Tree Council.
The University celebrates Earth Day each year as Earth Fest, which will be held on Wednesday, April 20, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the D'Angelo Common. Get your hands dirty at a tree planting demonstration by Zip Car and Bon Appétit, shop eco-friendly jewelry and canned goods made by students and staff, and sample the oyster bar, local honey and other goodies while listening to tunes from the RWU Musicians Guild or checking out the Engineering Club Student Art Dancers.

: MA and MAPD: What is the difference between a Medicare Advantage MA and a Medicare Advantage MAPD?
: In general, a Medicare Advantage plan is a health plan option approved by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and operated by private company. A Medicare Advantage plan may also be called a Medicare Part C. plan or a Medicare Health Plan. Medicare Advantage Plans provide a combination of your Medicare Part A (hospital coverage) and Medicare Part B (out-patient or medical coverage) and may also include other service such as vision coverage, dental coverage, and recreational coverage (such as a "Silver Sneakers" membership).
If the Medicare Advantage plan also includes Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage, then the Medicare Advantage plan is know as an
If the Medicare Advantage plan does not includes Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage, then the Medicare Advantage plan is know as an

plan (without prescription drug coverage), you may not be allowed to also add a stand-alone Medicare Part D prescription drug plan. If you want prescription drug coverage and want to join a Medicare Advantage plan, then you probably should choose an
. You can read more here: "
Can I enroll in an HMO and then add prescription drug coverage through a stand-alone Medicare Part D plan?
Most MAs and MAPD have healthcare networks and you may need to visit doctors (or other healthcare providers) who are part of the Medicare Advantage plan network - or be prepared to pay a higher coverage cost.
Types of Medicare Advantage Plans (MA and MAPD)
You can use our
Medicare Advantage Plan Finder
to browse through the
Medicare Advantage plans
. As you review plan in your ZIP Code region, you might notice some common types of Medicare Advantage plans .
- Health Maintenance Organizations: HMOs are wellness based Medicare Advantage plans and usually have the most-restrictive healthcare provider network, meaning that your healthcare costs may be considerably higher if you go outside of your plan's established network. Also, depending on your HMO plan, you may only be allowed outside of your plan network with a referral from your doctor. Local HMOs are often very affordable compared to other Medicare Advantage plans because the restrictive network and focus on wellness helps to control healthcare costs. The majority of Medicare Advantage plans will be HMOs (Health Maintenance Organizations).
- Health Maintenance Organizations Point-of-Service: These Medicare Advantage HMO's have a more flexible healthcare network allowing you to seek care outside of your plan's network by paying a higher cost-sharing rate. This type of HMO is chosen often for people who travel part of the year, but still return home for the majority of their healthcare needs. For instance, you may have a $30 co-payment when you visit a healthcare provider in-network (at home) and pay $60 when you visit a provider outside of the plan's network (while traveling).
Sometimes an HMO POS plans will convert to HMOs (without the POS option) in the following year. Please note, depending on your HMO POS, you may find that out-of-network costs do not apply to your plan's that your Maximum Out of Pocket (MOOP) limit - check with your plan's Member Services for more details.
- Preferred Provider Organization: Medicare Advantage PPOs have a less-restrictive provider network, but again, you probably will pay a higher cost-sharing rate when you visit a healthcare provider outside of your plan's network.
- Private Fee for Service plans: Although popular several years ago, fewer Medicare Advantage PFFS plans are now available (for instance, only 57 PFFS plans were available in 2016). PFFS plans have the most flexible network, meaning that you can go to any health care provider as long as they accept Medicare and the terms and conditions of your PFFS plan. As noted, PFFS plans are becoming rare, but some people still find PFFS plans as a flexible and economic alternative to other Medicare Advantage plans.
- Special Needs Plans: SNPs are Medicare Advantage plans designed for a people with specific conditions or financial needs. Certain SNPs are available only to diabetics, people with chronic cardiac conditions, nursing home residents, or people eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid (D-SNPs). If you do not have the plan's "special need", you will not be allowed to join (or stay in) the SNP.
- Medical Savings Accounts: MSAs are like Health Savings Accounts (or HSAs) or a high-deductible health plan combined with a spending account that you can use to pay for your health care costs. MSAs do not provide prescription drug coverage and you would need to join a separate Medicare Part D plan for your prescription needs. Unfortunately, few MSAs are available.
- Medicare-Medicaid Plans: MMP plans were introduced in 2014 and are only offered in a few locations across the country. As noted by CMS: "A Medicare-Medicaid Plan (MMP) [like a D-SNP] is a private health plan that has been competitively selected and approved to provide integrated care to eligible full-benefit Medicare-Medicaid enrollees under the CMS Financial Alignment Demonstration." (CMS, "Financial Alignment Initiative," (www.cms.gov/Medicare-Medicaid-Coordination/Medicare-and-Medicaid-Coordination/Medicare-Medicaid-Coordination-Office/FinancialModelstoSupportStatesEffortsinCareCoordination.html.)
MMPs only serve full benefit dual (Medicare/Medicaid) eligible beneficiaries and some additional limitations may apply.

Disclaimer for Institutional Special Needs Plan (SNP): This plan is available to anyone with Medicare who meets the Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) level of care and resides in a nursing home.

Medicare MSA Plans combine a high deductible Medicare Advantage Plan and a trust or custodial savings account (as defined and/or approved by the IRS). The plan deposits money from Medicare into the account. You can use this money to pay for your health care costs, but only Medicare-covered expenses count toward your deductible. The amount deposited is usually less than your deductible amount, so you generally have to pay out-of-pocket before your coverage begins.
Medicare MSA Plans do not cover prescription drugs. If you join a Medicare MSA Plan, you can also join any separate (stand-alone) Medicare Part D prescription drug plan
There are additional restrictions to join an MSA plan, and enrollment is generally for a full calendar year unless you meet certain exceptions. Those who disenroll during the calendar year will owe a portion of the account deposit back to the plan. Contact the plan provider for additional information.

Update: Underwriti
[ Edited ]
ng!!!! Almost There!!!!
01-10-2013 08:59 AM - edited 01-21-2013 10:05 AM
Hello all! I know I have been gone for a while but I just wanted to share some updates.
1-Got preapproved by LO for $225k VAloan
2-went under contract for dream home $185k
3-completed loan apps
4-SILENCE from LO for two weeks
5-Realized that LO had no clue what he was doing
6-Found new AMAZING LO who informed us that due to the deductions on our taxes my income was not helpful for the loan and my husband only qualified for $135k
7-Deal fell through (and my baby broke his leg on the same exact day)
8-My amazing mother offered to gift us $40k
9-We considered purchasing a home for $175k but then decided to offer original sellers of our dream home $175k
10-They countered at $178k!!!!!!
So now we are back under contract for our dream home and for $8k less. Also we are financing $135k so our payments will be considerably less than we anticipated. The appraisal came in at $180 (which means that our original deal at $185k would have fallen through anyway). My husband just got an email from the underwriter with her requests for more paperwork. Our current LO is so awesome.....when my husband told him the quotes we got for HO Ins. he called his contact at state farm to get us a lower rate!!!! SO now that the loan is in my husbands name only and I worked all year to repair my credit, I am going to get myself a much needed NEW CAR (LO said it was fine). The only thing is that my husband has a $4k collection from when he cosigned on his exwifes car that she never paid off. LO said that we may have to pay it but we are PRAYING that the UW will take pity on us and spare us that expense. It is old but its there none the less. If all goes well, we will close on or before Jan 30th!!!
Current Scores:TU/681 EQ/637 EXP/613 11/2012 (lender pull)
Goal:700 across the board

I build my website in a wordpress folder. Now I wanted the site to be example.com instead of example.com/wordpress. Therefor, I followed the steps that were provided by WordPress (http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory). After I did this I was shocked to see that my whole site was ruined. The template isn't showing anymore. And I lost my admin login page! I tried the wp-admin with and without /wordpress but no luck.
Did I break my site or can I still save it?!
