Keith Shamburger was not to be denied on Saturday night for Hawaii.
The Rainbow Warriors point guard nailed an improbable, banked 3-pointer from beyond the top of the arc over 7-foot-6 UC Irvine center Mamadou Ndiaye to send the game into overtime, then hit the clinching free throws in the extra period to seal a 90-86 victory for UH, which swept its two-game road trip.
Shamburger finished with 17 points and 11 assists a day after attending his aunt's funeral in Los Angeles. He had the last word on a game that swung wildly, with UH up double figures in the first half and down by double figures in the second before a sold-out crowd at the 5,000-seat Bren Events Center.
UH improved to 14-5 overall and 3-2 in the Big West while dealing the Anteaters (13-8, 4-1) their first loss of league play. For the second straight road game, the entire UH starting five scored in double figures. This time, the first five accounted for all 90 points for the 'Bows, which was narrowly enough to outdo six Anteaters in double-figure scoring.
Sophomore forward Isaac Fotu scored a career-high 30 points in the victory on 13-for-16 shooting. He got the extra period started with a baseline jumper, then converted a three-point play on a lob over Ndiaye for an 83-82 lead.
UCI, which entered the game on a six-game winning streak, scored the next four points on consecutive baskets, but Christian Standhardinger (14 points) fouled out Ndiaye on a take to the basket and made both foul shots to cut UCI's lead to 86-85.
Garrett Nevels (19 points) hit a floater for an 87-86 lead with a minute left in OT and UH got a key stop on a missed drive by Alex Young coming out of an Anteaters timeout.
UCI took a foul on Shamburger on the inbounds pass. He missed the first free throw and made the second with 22.4 seconds left for a two-point lead. UCI dribbled up and called its final timeout with 12.8 seconds left, and it went for the win. UCI's 3-point look rimmed out and the ball went out of bounds to UH.
Shamburger was fouled again and calmly drained two for the final margin, as UCI's desperation fullcourt heave was well off the mark and wouldn't have made a difference.
The Rainbow Warriors opened the game making their first eight shots for a 10-point lead, but UCI caught up by the end of the half, by going to a 2-3 zone defense the 'Bows struggled to solve during a 15-2 UCI run to close the period.
Young capped the frenzy with a 40-foot running, banked 3-pointer at the halftime buzzer for a 43-38 Irvine lead at the break.
UH went the final 5:26 of the period without a field goal, while UCI wound up shooting 56 percent in the period after its slow start.
Fotu converted a three-point play to make it 61-58 at the midpoint of the second half. He then converted a layup on a fullcourt pass to cap a 9-0 run and force a UCI timeout.
Ndiaye throw down a dunk to end the run, but that's when UH went to a little Hack-a-Mamadou to close the gap a bit.
Standhardinger converted two free throws to make it 68-64 UCI with 6:07 to play. Brandon Spearman (10 points) made one of two free throws to cut the deficit to three, and Fotu scored on a lob from Shamburger to make it a 70-69 game with 4:30 to play, but Ndiaye threw down a putback dunk to extend the lead back to four.
UH cut it to three and got the ball back, but a 3-pointer to tie by Nevels was swatted out of bounds, setting up Shamburger's wild look coming out of a timeout.

Well, as all we of rational mind and realistic philosophies figured, yesterday came and went and there was no great cataclysm - although my leaving a small battalion of six green and frosted bottled troops in the car overnight was a bit of a disaster as temperatures dealt to them.
The only other disaster of note which some may have encountered would be that of realising that, while time may have run out for the misguided Mayans 1000 years ago, it is also about to run out for themselves in terms of sorting out who's getting what on Christmas Day.
In three days, it is upon us.
Kind of like the heat of the past week.
"This is what it used to be like in the old days," a bloke I know remarked as we chatted in the street last Thursday - as the sun blazed down and the heat shimmered off the steel furnaces better known as car roofs.
Later in the day, I heard what sounded like Nordic accents as a group of young people, oddly pale and clearly feeling the heat, wandered by.
They had turned their backpacks on a white Christmas and headed to the South Pacific.
They were admiring the sparkling decorations throughout the main street and would have smiled at the one shop window done up as if frosted by snow.
The Christmas thing has certainly been in the air, and well within eyesight, as we discovered the other evening while driving home along Kennedy Rd.
A couple of houses had more flickering little lights than there are deep in the caves of Waitomo.
Of course, it could be easy to start becoming a little suspect of the commercialism of it all but one thing which sparked my Christmas spirit this year was seeing how the Bay community got in behind the annual Christmas Cheer Appeal.
It's been running for nearly 30 years now, and there was some trepidation that the response would not be so spirited this year, given that times were pretty tough and money is tight.
But the community responded just brilliantly. Businesses and individuals. Children, teenagers, adults ... every day people were popping in and dropping things off at the collection points.
With grants and cash collections, about $25,000 was raised, and the value of the many hundreds of gift items which were gathered probably added another $10,000 to that.
It was heartening ... and it dissolved any cynicism I may have harboured at the end of a tough day. There's a lot of very good people out there in the community.
Hawke's Bay, good on you. You have helped create a Christmas for many who would otherwise have missed out.

It's the five year anniversary of a disappearance investigators say is shrouded in mystery.
45 year old Surrey family man Yashpal Mehay left to attend a gas station he owned in Clinton in July 2009, and hasn't been heard from since.
Sgt. Dale Carr is pleading to the public to come forward with any information, as police have no clue what happened.
"No criminal affiliations or criminal record for that matter. There is really no evidence to suggest that he was met with foul play. This one year is one of those that are a true mystery as to where he has gone."
Mehay was last seen was at Staples Office Supply in Chilliwack around 3 p.m. on July 14, 2009.
Full bulletin from Surrey RCMP :
Title: Five year anniversary of missing person Yashpal MEHAY
It has been five years since a 45 year old Surrey family man went missing after leaving his home to attend to his business in the South Cariboo area of British Columbia.
Yashpal MEHAY was reported missing by his family on July 15, 2009 after leaving Surrey the previous day and failing to arrive in Clinton, BC where he operated a Petro Canada gas station with his brother-in-law.
MEHAY was a religious man, a husband and father.
He had no health problems, addiction issues or marital problems.
MEHAY had no criminal affiliations or criminal record and there is no evidence to suggest that he met with foul play.
MEHAY drove alone from Surrey to Clinton on an every-other-week basis as he had done for the previous three years.
MEHAY was driving his grey 2004 Mazda MPV with BC licence 494KVK at the time.
Over the following days, weeks and months RCMP in Surrey, with the assistance of Abbotsford Police, Chilliwack RCMP, Hope RCMP, Boston Bar RCMP, Clinton RCMP and RCMP Air Services launched an extensive investigation by land and air in efforts to locate MEHAY and his vehicle.
The investigation confirmed that the last known place MEHAY was seen was at Staples Office Supply in Chilliwack around 3:00 PM on July 14, 2009.
At that time he appeared (on video surveillance) alone and not in any type of distress.
An extensive ground search along the route MEHAY would normally take to Clinton was also undertaken by family members, all to no avail.
It is believed MEHAY would have traveled from Chilliwack to Clinton via Highway 1 to Cache Creek, then north on Highway 97 to Clinton.
This route was searched extensively by air and ground by both police and family members, all without success.
Police are considering all options and have conducted air searches of alternate routes of Highway 12 between Lytton and Lillooet and Highway 99 between Lillooet and the junction with Highway 97.
Yashpal Mehay is described as a forty five old South Asian male, approximately 5'7″, 185 lbs, with short black hair, brown eyes, and a black moustache. He was last known to be wearing a striped green and white long-sleeved American Eagle shirt and khaki pants.
The MEHAY family and the police are asking that anyone with information regarding the disappearance of Yashpal MEHAY, no matter how seemingly insignificant, to come forward.
Anyone with more information is asked to please contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 and reference Surrey RCMP file number 2009-86044. If you wish to remain anonymous, you can contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS or go to www.solvecrime.ca.

The Century Project is an expansion project at Enloe Medical Center that began in 2007. It encompasses a new patient tower, called the Magnolia Tower, a new and expanded Emergency Department, a parking structure and a park. All major building is now complete; and we will begin work on the park west of the hospital. Find out more about features, amenities and medical advancements within our new facilities on the FAQs page.
A park is part of the Enloe Century Project. A playground is already in place, and we plan on expanding the park area to provide a pleasant space for patients, visitors, staff and neighbors and to provide a buffer between the neighborhood and the hospital grounds. The park will include a plaza featuring customized bricks from our donors, beautiful annual flowers, walking paths and quiet, contemplative sitting areas with low-water-use and native plants. See a rendering of the park from West 6th Ave.
The second and final phase of Enloe Medical Center's Emergency Department expansion was completed in Tuesday, June 9, 2015 at 7 a.m. This followed the addition of a new one-story Emergency Department building on Monday, Aug. 25, 2014, making for a grand total of 25,000 square feet of space for emergency care. This milestone represents the completion of the major building construction for the Enloe Century Project that began in 2006.
Enloe Medical Center proudly opened the doors and began providing care in the new Magnolia Tower on Thursday, Nov. 15, 2012 at 5:30 a.m. The 191,000 square-foot addition doubles the size of the medical center. It has five stories providing patient care as well as a basement with equipment, and it includes a new Surgery Center. This is the first expansion of the medical center since 1980. Learn more and see photos on the FAQ page.
The four-level, three-story parking structure opened in August 2008. It was the first phase of the Enloe Century Project and provides 742 parking spaces, much needed space for everyone coming to the medical center.

Huevos Rancheros at Florida Cookery.
Previously flying under our brunch radar, Florida Cookery's downstairs terrace brunch is now served in a charming redesigned patio area. Despite the sweltering summer sun, guests are sheltered by their choice of umbrella or covered dining area, accompanied by a number of fans.
Chef Kris Wessel's midday menu is an ode to our state's blended cuisines, with whimsical add-ons and re-imagined classics, of course. Those looking for a light brunch can try the Hot Miami Housewife Salad, a mix of spicy fish tips, fennel, leek, mixed cress, and lemon quinoa. Other standouts include the Cookery Egg Sliders with tomato fondue, cheddar, barbecue-glazed pork belly, and guanabana dipping sauce, and our favorite, the Huevos Rancheros, layered with eggs, black beans, cheese, chorizo, tomato sofrito, and hollandaise. Don't forget to order a side of calabaza hash or grits.
Cookery also offers a weekly all-you-can eat special, which during a recent visit featured slow-cooked pork. For dessert, feast on house-made pastries, cookies, and cinnamon buns.

Three Famines: Starvation and Politics by Thomas Keneally – review. Witnessing famine comes as a visceral shock – the slow and silent evisceration of society, family and the human body itself.
The Russian sociologist Pitrim Sorokin, survivor of the famine of the early 1920s in his home country, wrote in Man and Society in Calamity (1946) of starvation reducing man to "a naked animal upon the naked earth". His experience was of a communist famine, in which professors starved alongside peasants. More common is famine that singles out the poor. The economist and philosopher Amartya Sen, who lived through the 1943 Bengal famine as a young member of a prominent family that fed the destitute, opened his seminal book Poverty and Famines (1981) with the observation that famine is the phenomenon of some people not having enough food to eat, not of there not being enough food to eat.

Samoan Nuts For Making Opponent A Little "Testy"
Rugby is a rough sport, there's no doubt about it. You get stepped on, pushed, tackled, shoved and sometimes what appears to be a prostate exam.
South African has long been thought to have one of the best Rugby teams in the world. The Samoan's are aslo pretty good. This match seemed out of hand as South Africa had Samoa doubled up 32-16.
That's usually when things get a little "chippy". There was a pile up when Samoa's James So'oialo decides to violate a man so big he has no neck. Adriaan Strauss in a hooker on the South African team and he's a large man, so when So'oialo decides to give him the old reach around, he's not amused. It IS amusing listening to the commentators.

Struggling with cats death
I had a 20 year old cat who had to be put down this afternoon. I am concerned, did we do the right thing ? He was getting very old, and losing weight and yesterday afternoon was having difficulty breathing. It continued till this afternoon, when we brought him to the vet. But, what went wrong? Was it heart failure? I mean, he was still eating and drinking. But could barely walk a few steps without flopping over, gasping for air.
Also, when we went to take him to the vet, my mother picked him up and he actually peed on her! He has never done this before. Was he just scared? I am hoping we made the right decision in putting him down. Any ideas?
Thank you.

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
I apologize that no one has answered your question, and I offer my deepest sympathy on your loss. From what you've said, you made the right decision. Your baby was in great distress. The vet may have been able to treat and/or medicate him to keep him alive for a small while, but it would have been no quality of life for him and prolonging the inevitable. As humans who love our animals, we are blessed to have the ability to end their suffering when they have no quality of life. This is the kindest thing we can do for them. This is our way of saying "thanks" for years of companionship, loyalty and love. To prolong their lives when they are suffering, to keep them in our world when they are ready for the next is not fair to them. I believe in the Rainbow Bridge and that the much beloved animals I've sent there wait for me to join them. One day in the future, your dear kitty may tap another kitty on the head and tell them it's time for them to join your family. We send purrs and hugs!

I am sorry to hear this that your cat is no more. You did the right thing which you could at that time. I think it happen just because of his age. You don't went wrong. So you don't need to worry.
Member 1155186 answered on 10/6/13. Helpful? / 0
I am truly heartfelt for your loss. You did the right thing. There are so many "what ifs?" when it comes down to it, but you had an amazing 20 year relationship with a wonderful pet who knows you love him enough not to see him suffer. Yes, I use the present tense. He is still with you and will be looking over you and missing you until you can meet again. We lost our senior kitty of 18 years almost a year ago; I definitely know what you are going through. It is hard to watch their decline from a robust cat to a shell of what they once were. It seems that when a cat is ready to show an illness, a lot of times it is too late; they are master magicians at hiding what is really going on. My prayers are with you and your family. I watched my friend's health decline for over two weeks and was with him when he passed. If I had it to do over again, I think I would have him put down after the first week; he tried so hard! Sending hugs your way!!!

Mania is the "up" side of severe mood swings characteristic of manic depression. It can be an extremely elevated mood or a time of very high energy. A woman may feel on top of the world or out-of-control. Frustration with such out-of-control feelings may also lead to rage episodes or aggressive outbursts. Whether the woman's manic experience feels wonderful or scary, the episode ultimately ends in burnout or a swing to an extreme state of depression.

Date of Stay: August, 2009
We just got home after 3 great nights here. Yes: I thought the nightly rate was a little high until I got there. It's been about 8 months since I was there last and they've made alot of improvements. Our site was level and the power pedestals made everything so neat and easy to hook up. The off-leash dog area was great too. I do wish people would pick up after their dogs, especially when they 'deposit' right in front of the dog area gate and there are bags less than 3 ft away. This is definitely one of the nicest parks we've been to. The owners totally know how to make a park super RV'er friendly. Our only complaint: Wi-Fi was very slow in my trailer, but I came here for a short vacation so, oh well.
Date of Stay: June, 2009
This is the nicest RV park we've been to yet. There was nothing left to be desired. It's not too far from the strip but in a area that's not very busy. Security did their rounds and I felt at ease while my daughter rode her bike. Everyone was really nice. Spaces were great, even the standard spaces seemed pretty good. Definitely big rig friendly. They also have a RV detailing business on site, which was great. We can't wait to go back.
Date of Stay: June, 2009
We are here as we speak. It is a beautiful RV park. Prossibly one of the nicest I've been to. Pool is nice, restrooms are great and everyone is so friendly. They escort you to your spot and procede to help you park and hook up everything. That was a first. Could have a 10 except fot the problem that was noted last year about the BUGS. I asked about that and the office girl said that was from the previous owners. Well, maybe it comes with the territory but once the sun went down, out they came. Huge spiders and big water like roaches. Absolutely disgusting. I'm sure they can't help it, but we're leaving only after one night because I'm scared of taking some home with us. If they could fix that problem it'd totally be a 10. But until then, I think I'm even being generous.
Date of Stay: June, 2008
I chose this place for the halfway point location and the fact it had a pool. I was very pleased with everything. The office closed early since it's the off season but clear instruction were given at the door. There were plenty to chose from and the site very level. Very level and everything was very well kept. A few full timers here that were very friendly. It is in the desert but the surroundings are pretty and boy was it quiet even though right of the highway. We will definitely be back during the "on" season. Nicest park I've been to.
Date of Stay: June, 2008
Park is beautiful and rustic. It was our first time here and almost didn't stay because of ants, but they didn't seem to be more than a small problem. Liked the idea of showing me spots and letting me decide, but was a little put off seeing that my 6 yr old and I had to sit on the back of the golfcart because the passenger seat was taken by a dog. That was a little tacky, and I am pet owner and would have never thought to do that to someone. Overall a very nice rustic place. We would come here again and probably stay in one of the cabins. Be advised that the park is well shaded and that means lots of low tree limbs. Wasn't a big problem for us, but could be for a larger RV or fifth wheel.

Covered in mud...
4.10s vs 4.56s for street/strip car..
I have two pairs of axles, one of which I am going to use, the other I will be selling. Trying to decide which to use. One has 4.10s, one has 4.56s, both are 4 wheel discs, and strong enough for what I want to do.
For a street/strip vehicle, mostly street, do you think there's benefit to running the deeper gears for better off the line accelleration?
I expect to run it a couple times at the strip, to see what it does, but its mostly for just driving on the strip. Its a semi-sleeper vehicle, so I want it to surprise people how quick it is. With 4.56s, there's a good chance that I could max out 3rd gear before the end of a 1/4 mile track which would hurt times, but its more of a street vehicle.
Its light, and AWD. I see the Trailblazer SS guys talk about how 4.56s help them jump off the line. But those are 5000lb whales. TBSS's run 4.10s stock, and 30" tires. I also will run 29 or 30" tires.
Thinking about a ~3500 rpm stall.
Wondering if people out there who have experience with faster cars have thoughts on this. Wouldn't want to make the car slower in reality by over gearing it....

Chevy LS2, planning to do heads, cam, headers, etc, builds of this type are usually about 500-525 Crank HP, and maybe 475-500 torque.
full manual 700R4, thinking a yank ss3600 or similar style converter.
Hehehe, I think with 4.56s, it'd run nice on the sand on baby paddles, too...(no low range, but I have surveyed a lot of guys about what they run in sand, and the 4.56s + 3.06 first is right around the sweet spot for most people..)
But being honest, I get to the sand 1-2 times a year. And maybe run the strip 1-2 times a year. Mainly a street car. Its going to look like, well, a junky old Jeep. Want it to pretty much be able to take anything from 0-60 on a regular michigan street (i.e. crappy surface for a 2wd to hook on)... Which is the reason for AWD. Will have standard street tires in a 255-275 width, depending on my setup.
|March 28th, 2013, 01:14 PM
Covered in mud...
When I surveyed guys running fast trucks on the sand, it seemed like the 'money' gear was a combo that gave them around 130-166 rpm per mph. Guys running BIG power motors running high range were in the 130-140 rpm per mph range, guys running 400-600hp were in the 160-ish rpm per mph.
With 4.10s, I am at 146 rpm / mph, max trap speed in 3rd is about 130-135mph
With 4.56s, I am at 163 rpm / mph, max trap speed in 3rd about 115-120mph
Max trap speed depends on torque converter slip.
Never going to go 130mph in the quarter. But if I put in the numbers to racing calcs, its telling me something around 10.9-11.2 at 119-122mph. This jives with how fast TBSS's are going with similar mods and their race weights. I will be 1500lbs under a TBSS.

I loved my 4.56s, and 418ci 550hp, 4800 pound 4wd 04 ram for the 1/4 mile, but it was even more fun on the street with those gears, that was with a 5 speed auto and 30" tall tires
I trapped 110 mph @12.26
|March 28th, 2013, 02:19 PM
Covered in mud...
If I look at the standard racing calculators, then 110 mph @ 4800lbs (race weight with or without driver?), that says 525hp, 547hp if I add in a 200lb driver.
OK, now, in a 300lbs with 230lb driver, and 500hp, same calculator says 10.85 @ 123.5mph.
I'm wondering, with that much lower weight, if the lower gears help, or, with the 4.10s already being low, and the hit from the converter, is it better to go with the 4.10s, and stay in 1st gear longer.
The only other downside to the 4.56s, is the rear is too wide (Ford 9), I'd need to narrow it. Also, worried about the strength of that stock 3rd member. Don't think its a nodular case.

Do you have a complete dyno'd build you can compare to? Look at the real torque curve, the whole idea is to stay within the power band the entire time. Do the math and see where it will fall in each gear, from shift to shift with each ratio and see what works best.
My gut tells me that with no low range you'll end up wanting the 456 either way if you really want to play in the sand with a decent tire.
|March 28th, 2013, 02:58 PM
Covered in mud...
Its mainly a hot rod. *maybe* it would go to SL, but we go once a year right now, not thinking that a full set of paddles is cost effective for one trip...
I have all of the shift points mapped out. Those are determined by the transmission, so regardless of axle gear, I'll always fall back to the same RPM. It also is helped a little with the shift extension from the converter.

Are you stuck on using a 700? Just my opinion, but I'm no fan of them, especially for any kind of performance use.
The downside, is you're trying to get a balance for 2 totally different setups. Completely different trying to go fast on the sand, as it is trying to go fast on asphalt.
What axles are you going to use on the front to run AWD on the pavement? I'd be worried about that holding up.
I ran my Jeep a couple times on the asphalt, and my 4.88's were ok for 1/8 mile, but nowhere near useful in the 1/4 (not that I was running it out the back anyway). But, that was with a 3 speed auto. I would think you'd be more than fine with the 4 speed auto
Where are you figuring out rpm / mph?

Yeah, I know that 1-2 shift is wide. I have the trans, built by a buddy (KillerB) who builds them to sit behind big blocks, so I am hoping it will survive.
By far, the main thing, is a street car. I wanted to build a hot rod, but I live on crappy dirt roads, and I have this Jeep, which was just sitting there. Its paint job reminded me of old drag cars.
So, I started trying to think of doing something a little different, making a hot rod Jeep. But most of the hot rod Jeeps Ive seen are like a pro-street look with big fat tires in the back. Decided what about AWD for the street. No lift, maybe even lower than stock. I would love the look of narrow track axles, with tires tucked, lower than stock, with 17" steel rallies. But I probably will go with wider axles and a little taller stance, since I have those parts already.
So, decided on AWD, as a 0 to 70mph terror. So I want gears to launch like a missile, which means I really want overdrive, to live with whatever gears I pick. AWD cases, not many options for older 3 speeds. The Syclone and Typhoon cases hold the power level I am looking for, they need a 700R4/early 4L60e.

Ive taken some heat, for a couple builds that I started, but didn't finish. They all didn't get finished, because the amount of time to build an offroad Jeep that gets used 4 times a year just isn't worth it. I went into this saying: OK, what WOULD I use? Wife and I both have wanted a FAST convertable/hot rod for cruising for a while, and I'd use it all summer long, to drive to work. So this plan was hatched.
Right now I have:
CJ6 sitting on stretched TJ chassis
LS2 from a trailblazer
Built reverse manual 700R4
BW 4472 t-case
Dana 30 from a TJ with 4.10s
Ford 8.8 from explorer with 4.10s and disc
roll cage
STock TJ fuel tank to modify for new pump
Dash with full aftermarket gages
Full fuel system, minus fuel pump, for LSx engine
Full vehicle harness (aftermarket), already trimmed and taped for my Jeep.
E-fans and controller
aftermarket LS radiator
trans cooler
(A bunch of this came from my scrambler project)
I need to buy:
converter, wheels/tires, and exhaust, and whatever I add to the engine (cam, heads, etc)
I have the Ford 9" with 4.56s and a detroit tru trac, and a disassembled HP30 with 4.56 gears also.
Also was thinking, that I might not want that HP30 in the front, the low pinion TJ axle might help me clear long tube headers. Don't know of anyone that makes outside the frame headers for an LSx with 1.75 or 1.875 primaries and 3" collectors.
I am just planning standard Dana 30 front shafts, as those were used in AWD applications, although the grand cherokees, especially later ones, used CV-joint axleshafts, which are rumored to be stronger than u-joint style, and smoother for AWD use on pavement, so I might look for those...

It should go without saying that, in today's day and age, you need Texas health insurance. Going without is a serious risk that could come back and haunt you in a big way. However, that definitely doesn't mean it's easy to figure out what kind of coverage you need. With so many policies to choose from and so much to consider, it can be a lot of work. Fortunately, the below should serve to at least make your options clear.
Health Management Organizations
One popular form of Texas health insurance is health management organizations or, as they're better know, HMOs. The advantage to this form of coverage is that it's low cost. However, the flipside is that it's also low choice too. You choose your primary care physician who then organizes all of your healthcare needs. This means that, if you should need a specialist, you'd first go to this practitioner who would be in charge of assigning you a referral.
A big advantage with an HMO is you have one doctor essentially looking out for all your needs. So if you have serious medical issues or just a number of them, you'll know there's oversight in getting the help you need.
However, you have to stick within a certain network of doctors and if you wander outside of it, your HMO will no longer be of any use.
Preferred Provider Organization
With a Preferred Provider Organization, or a PPO, doctors and hospitals have agreed to offer discounted fees to your insurance company. In theory, then, these savings should get passed onto you. The healthcare providers benefit from this, though, as they are then given lots of business from the insurance company.
Unlike with an HMO, you have no practitioner in charge of your needs, so you're free to pick whomever you like as a doctor. You're also able to go outside the network if you like, although you won't have those discounts to rely on.
Point of Service Plan
A Point of Service Plan combines features from both of the above types of Texas health insurance. So, like an HMO, a POS means you pick a preferred practitioner who will then be in charge of assigning you to specialists in your network as necessary. So long as you stay within the network, you'll have a small co-payment but no deductible you need to meet.
However, should you choose to go outside of the network for treatment, this form of Texas health insurance will then act more like a PPO. That's because you can essentially self-refer once you meet a certain deductible. You'll probably end up with higher coinsurance though.
So while a POS offers you a strong incentive financially to stay within your network, you still have the option to go outside it if you like.
Those are the three main types of Texas health insurance you'll need to consider when shopping the market. Keep in mind that these different versions will differ from provider to provider, so don't be hasty in your decision.

Obama, Calderon Push For Immigration Law Changes
Obama, Calderon push for immigration law changes | Reuters
Excerpts: Obama said the Arizona law underscored the need for comprehensive immigration reform and reflects U.S. frustrations, which he shares, with current law.
"In the United States of America, no law-abiding person -- be they an American citizen, a legal immigrant, or a visitor or tourist from Mexico -- should ever be subject to suspicion simply because of what they look like," Obama said....The United States needs a new law that secures the border, targets businesses that hire illegal workers and punishes illegals, but gives them a path to citizenship, Obama said. He asked for support from opposition Republicans to pass one....
The two countries broadly agree on issues like the global economy and climate change, despite tensions over immigration, border security, drug violence and trade. Their trade surpasses $1 billion a day, and Mexico sends 80 percent of its exports to the United States....
The two presidents said they would cooperate to crush drug gangs. The joint statement said the United States would speed delivery of helicopters and other aircraft for the drug fight. The traffickers' turf wars and battles with federal forces in Mexico have killed 23,000 people since Calderon took office in December 2006 and launched an army-backed offensive....
The countries are more closely aligned on the issue than they have been in years, and Mexico is pleased Washington acknowledges that U.S.-made weapons and U.S. demand for drugs are big parts of the problem. Read more.

Yeh, the biggest people to benefit from "war on drugs" are the people who seek employment for the police force, lawyers, jails and courthouses, contractors who build jails and couthouses, automobile makers, gun manufactures, advertisers, newspapers and broadcasters, the pharma companies (the real drugs you should be worried about), and the man who marks up the profit on rolling papers.
But if we were to legalize it, then a great many many more would make money $$$. And I am speaking of marijuana, the rest of the drug use is found at minimal. Our jails are filled with minor abuse of a minor substance like mary jane. Legalizing it during these times of our economy would be no different than George washington telling us to plant a crop in our back yard for cash during upcoming bad times. And al these policemen can now switch jobs and work on the pot plantation. The law makers can help us think of scary advertisement that gets the buyer's attention. And the judges can judge which strains of hemp are best for making ropes, clothes, medicine, and recreational use (to replace beer. Meanwhile, us citizens will make a boat load of money. And the citizens would save boat loads of money from NOT spending on what seems psychotic, to try and stop something that has existed since the creation of man. to self medicate or seek distraction from ones misery from another.
The amount of money spent on the war on drugs, far exceeds the total street value of all illicit drugs in the world. You do the math, but by all means; smoke a joint or drink a beer while doing it.
Watch 'Mike Ruppert tears apart 9/11' on Youtube :
This is the first of 15 parts. Mike Ruppert is a former LAPD narcotics officer who got the goods on the CIA for drug trafficking and when they found he couldn't be corrupted they tried to assassinate him, twice, and have done their best to make his life a living hell. I knew quite a bit of this already, but what I didn't know helped the rest to fall into place.
No Amnesty for illegals, criminals.

Sports of the Times; Short Shots in Sundry Directions
By ARTHUR DALEY ();
June 17, 1948,
, Section SPORTS BUSINESS, Page 36, Column , words
EBBETS FIELD, where the Dodgers have been known to kick around a few balls themselves, will be the scene tomorrow night of an international soccer game between the Liverpool eleven of Britain and Djurgarden of Sweden. According to the historians, this will be the first fray on these shores between two top-flight foreign combinations and should furnish a brand of play considerably superior to that ever seen here before.
