5 years of tort reform: Lone Star success story
■ Since Texas voters approved a liability cap, specialists have been setting up practices in the state, boosting access to care.
Posted Sept. 15, 2008.
The doomsday scenario for Texas was bleak: It was increasingly clear that without tort reforms, physicians would not be able to afford medical liability premiums, specialists would shun the state and many patients would struggle to find care.
Lone Star voters took notice and, in 2003, applied their good judgment to the problem. They approved a state constitutional amendment limiting noneconomic damages in medical liability cases to $250,000 for physicians. Five years later, the cap is being credited for slashing liability insurance premiums, boosting the ranks of doctors in the state, and improving medical access to patients.
While a comprehensive national solution has long been a goal of tort reformers -- and long blocked in the U.S. Senate -- Texas serves as a fresh example of the progress that can be achieved at the state level, first demonstrated by California's landmark Medical Injury Compensation Reform Act of 1975.
Texas physicians have witnessed a 25% overall drop in liability rates since 2003, the state insurance department says. For the first time, the state's largest medical liability carrier, Texas Medical Liability Trust, saw a 50% reduction in lawsuit filings, this from 2003 to 2008. Texas went from four insurers to more than 30 during that period.
According to the Texas Medical Board, medical license applications have soared from 2,561 to 4,041 -- a 58% jump. At the same time, the number of neurosurgeons has climbed 12%, while the supply of orthopedic surgeons has risen 9%.
The results seen in Texas, with lowered liability insurance premiums, are repeated in experiences from other states that have enacted caps of varying degrees. In February, the AMA released an analysis of independent research that showed caps on noneconomic damages are effective and have lowered premiums at least 17%, with some specialties seeing even greater drops.
Texas also is a timely example of the unfortunate reality that even carefully crafted reforms will be attacked.
The state constitutional amendment route -- as opposed to solely legislated reforms -- is seen as providing enhanced protection from challenges within the state. But like black-hat gunslingers looking for a showdown, tort reform opponents are staging a legal challenge. They say the cap won't pass U.S. constitutional muster. That case is pending in a federal court.
There have been challenges to caps in other states, including Illinois and Georgia. In both cases, lower state courts voided noneconomic damages caps enacted in the respective statehouses, setting the stage for state supreme court fights. The Litigation Center of the American Medical Association and State Medical Societies is working with those states to prove the caps are constitutional.
In fact, the AMA continues to work with many states to enact and defend liability reforms, providing everything from grants to research. These and other efforts are in keeping with the AMA's leading role as a tort reform advocate in the state and national arenas.
And there is positive news as well. This year, Colorado physicians fought off efforts to raise the state's $300,000 cap. Nancy H. Nielsen, MD, PhD, who was then AMA president-elect, spoke on the issue in the state, and the AMA gave state medical leaders important research to help their fight.
Enacting -- and defending -- state measures will be a long, tough fight. That's been the history of medical tort reform efforts in every venue, hardly surprising given the power of a well-funded and well-connected trial lawyer community. But each state victory -- and every contrast to states yet to reform -- helps make the case to bring tort reform to more places.

House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) on Sunday would not rule out passage of bills without the support of a majority of the chamber's Republicans, saying only that Speaker BoehnerJohn BoehnerLobbying World Jordan won't run for Oversight gavel Oklahoma rep. launches long-shot bid for Oversight chair MORE (R-Ohio) was committed to finding GOP support for major legislation.
House GOP leadership has recently violated the "Hastert rule," named after former Republican Speaker Dennis Hastert (Ill.), which requires bills coming to the floor to have support from the majority of GOP members.
"The speaker says he wants to, if you listen to his press conference the other day, he will pass bills that the House passes," said McCarthy on CNN's "State of the Union." "He'll pass bills that the Republicans are moving forward."
The House in recent months broke the Hastert rule three times in passing bills to avoid the "fiscal cliff" by raising tax rates on some earners, Hurricane Sandy relief, and the Violence Against Women Act.
Boehner on Tuesday, though, said that he would not make a habit of passing bills lacking majority GOP support.
"It's not a practice I would expect to continue long-term," Boehner said.
McCarthy on Sunday cautioned against underestimating the ability of the House to move legislation on key issues forward.
"It is better if the House does their work. We should be sending bills to the Senate," McCarthy said.
Asked about immigration specifically, McCarthy touted the House's ability to move forward with its own plan, rather than waiting to take up a potential Senate-passed bill.
"I would not underestimate the House's ability to pass an immigration bill," he said. "I think we have plenty of ideas on that and I think that we can move the ball as well."
CNN host Candy Crowley said of her Hastert rule question: "I think I am not going to get a straight answer to that."
In a statement to The Hill, McCarthy spokesperson Mike Long said: "Whip McCarthy strongly supports returning to regular order to bring legislation to the floor that has the support of a majority of the majority. Insinuation to the contrary is completely false."
Boehner has never explicitly endorsed the Hastert rule, but has said he would only bring bills to the floor that were backed by a "majority of the majority.
The speaker has pledged to let the House "work its will," but has faced criticism from conservative members over House passage of Democratic-backed legislation.
This story was updated at 8:01 p.m. to include a response from Rep. McCarthy's office.

The company expects to retire approximately $3.0 billion of outstanding senior and subordinated bonds by utilizing a combination of preferred stock, debt and cash. "Today's announcement is another example of Allstate's proactive and disciplined capital management," said Thomas J. Wilson, chairman, president and chief executive officer.

"This comprehensive capital plan will retire outstanding debt primarily through issuing new securities," said Steve Shebik, chief financial officer. "The company will repay or pre-fund $1.2 billion of debt maturing in 2013 and 2014. In addition, we expect to purchase through tender offers, portions of $4.3 billion of Allstate's outstanding debt obligations at a premium, which would result in a charge to earnings in the second quarter of 2013. Funding will come from the issuance of perpetual preferred stock, subordinated 'hybrid' debt, senior debt and cash balances. There will be no impact on Allstate's current share repurchase programs."

The new peak value for DDoS attacks has changed yet again, with the new top value being 579 Gbps, recorded by Arbor Networks during the first half of the year.
The previous maximum value was 500 Gbps , detected at the end of 2015, the start of 2016, also by Arbor Networks a company that provides various security services, among which is DDoS mitigation.
Low-and-slow DDoS attacks account for 80 percent of all DDoS attacks
The company released today its report on the state of the DDoS landscape for the first half of the year. The report shows that despite a growth regarding the peak values which DDoS attacks can reach, the average value of an attack is only 986 Mbps, something that could very easily be deflected by a company that employs dedicated DDoS mitigation infrastructure.
Arbor says that around 80 percent of the entire DDoS attacks detected in the first six months of the year were small to middle size, and only 46 attacks went above 200 Gbps and 274 attacks over 100 Gbps.
Almost all metrics are up compared to the same period of 2015, Arbor says, and in most cases, crooks didn't need complicated amplification attacks to reach peak values, with many using botnets built on top of modifications of LizardStresser , a simple toolkit created and open-sourced by the infamous Lizard Squad hacking crew.
DDoS landscape grows in sophistication and size
In fact, in the past year, there have been many incidents that have contributed to the overall growth of the DDoS landscape.
This includes the emergence of a massive DDoS botnet of 25,000 bots comprised of hijacked CCTV systems, the proliferation of sophisticated and cheap DDoS stressers , and the discovery of new DDoS reflection attack vectors via the DNSSEC and TFTP protocols.
Arbor says that in terms of reflection attacks, DNS has surpassed NTP and SSDP, and has become the prevalent (abused) protocol in the first half of 2016.
Furthermore, multi-vector DDoS attacks have become the norm , with a nine-vector DDoS attack of 470 Gbps hitting a Chinese gambling company this June.

Download Issues
I bought The Last Of Us on PSN, late at night on Friday. I downloaded it up to around 70% and I got a message saying I could play the game, because the rest of the content could be downloaded in the background. Obviously I wanted to play it immediately, thinking it would only take maybe 30 minutes for it to download the rest. But now, the day after, I've been having issues where I'd play for 5-30 minutes, and suddenly the game would stop and download more content. It wouldn't give me a specific message, just give me a percentage, (usually starting from 15-25%) and then I'd have to wait one or two hours before playing another 5-30 minutes of the game.
I'd love to get some help on this, seeing as I'm excited to know what happens next,
thanks in advance,
Re: Download Issues
What does it say at the installer when you just load the game? Figured it would help to just let that thing download completely.

Rachel Jones purchased this cottage in 2007
Why Rachel Jones chose Perigord Pourpre
We considered a number of regions before choosing the Dordogne. It was the pretty towns and villages, undulating landscape, pace of life, climate and the ease of access from the UK that attracted us.
What makes this cottage unique
One of our favourite things is the Sunday lunchtime market at Soumensac which is just 2kms from our property (held in July and August). You pitch up and enjoy delicious, freshly prepared food and wine from local producers. The tables and chairs are positioned in the shade of chestnut trees and to take advantage of the stunning panoramic view. Such a relaxing way to spend a Sunday afternoon!

Our stay at "Le Pige" will go down as one of the most joyous holidays that our family have ever had. Rachel and Chris are the most perfect hosts, never intrusive they just seem to know when they might just be needed and along with the delightful little Ellie they made our stay a perfect one. Set in a beautiful area of the Dordogne, it was a joy to drive to some of the neighbouring towns through the gently rolling countryside decorated with stunning sunflower fields and lush green vinyards. Our children loved the pool area and would have been more than happy to have spent the whole of our stay swimming in the pool and playing monopoly on the patio area. If "Le Pige" has a problem with it, that is it. You just don't want to leave it.
Needless to say we'll be coming back.

Absolute Paradise!
We booked Le Pigeonnier (Le Pige) for the first week in August hoping for a relaxing time in a great property in a beautiful location. We weren't disappointed - in fact Le Pige exceeded our hopes and we had an absolutely fantastic week. We have visited the Dordogne a number of times and usually dash around to see the many beautiful sights, but Le Peynau is so lovely we just wanted to stay in the gite and chill by the great pool. That said, Eymet and Duras were easy to get to and well worth visiting. Rachel, Chris and little Ellie were great hosts and gave us some excellent recommendations for local places to see. Le Pige was very well equipped and beautifully presented and the four of us were very comfortable. The setting was absolutely stunning, with views over fields of sunflowers to the woods beyond. We were blessed with superb weather, but understand from Rachel and Chris that we had typically warm weather with endless blue skies.
Needless to say, we would highly recommend Le Pige and Le Peynau and will definitely be returning.
Delightful Cottage in a peaceful location
One of the best equipped and well maintained cottages which we have stayed at. It is located in a picturesque rural setting overlooking fields and vineyards, yet is close to the historic market town of Eymet where a good range of shops and markets can be found. A large garden area provides privacy and the pool is an added bonus.
The hosts Chris and Rachel could not have been more helpful. We certainly enjoyed our stay and would like to return. The only regret was that the time went too quickly.
Sunday lunch in the next village is a treat not to be missed!
Beautiful, stunning, tranquil!
We had the loviest stay at Le Pigeonnier, looked after superbly by Chris, Rachel & Ellie. The website is great, but nothing compared to the real thing. Everything you need is provided. My children (boy 7 & girl 5) had a wonderful time, playing in the pool, treehouse, boules and table tennis. Amazing surroundings, so much space and beautiful settings! Highly recommended!
Perfect holiday destination!
Le Pige, as it is affectionately known, is an absolute delight. We stayed last year as well and, returning this year, did not disappoint. Le Pige has everything you need for an extremely comfortable stay with everything you need. The swimming pool is gorgeous and there's plenty of land to roam around in. A great place for adults and children alike with no shortage of games available to play such as badminton, table tennis and boules. I cannot speak highly enough of the owners, Rachel, Chris and not forgetting their delightful 3 year old daughter , Ellie. They are very kind, helpful and friendly. We love it so much, we definitely hope to return in 2016!
A lovely relaxing stay.
Le Pigeonnier is a pretty and very well maintained holiday destination perfect for a couple or a family. Our hosts were most helpful, always at hand when needed but discrete. The attractive local town of Eymet provides plenty of interest with local markets and places to eat. The surrounding countryside was beautiful for wildlife, walks and cycling. The pool was well maintained and there was plenty of room for two families to use.

The company is announcing plans to expand its footprint with both existing and new franchisees.Franchising executives will host a Franchising Open House on Tuesday, Feb. 25 from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. This is a fantastic chance for anyone who has ever thought about owning his or her own ice cream shop to learn about the great business opportunity Baskin- Robbins can offer. The event will provide details about franchising opportunities and current development incentives and is being held at San Diego's newest Baskin- Robbins location at 5575 Balboa Avenue, Suite 300. This Baskin- Robbins shop on Balboa Avenue is newly constructed, from floor to ceiling, in the brand's new store image, which incorporates modern visual elements that celebrate the brand's nearly 70-year heritage. Interested franchising candidates who attend this open house can get a first-hand look at how the store design focuses on all of the fun, fresh ways Baskin- Robbins brings its flavors to life for guests. "I am excited to open my doors to potential Baskin- Robbins franchisees in the San Diego area," said Sharan Kooner, Baskin- Robbins franchisee at 5575 Balboa Avenue, San Diego, Calif. "I encourage entrepreneurs to come by and view our new store and learn more about how to become a part of this growing brand." To register for the seminar, visit http://franchisingevents.dunkinbrands.com, or for additional information, contact Julie Price at email@example.com. "Baskin- Robbins has six decades of experience refining its business system to offer a fun, rewarding new business opportunity to new franchise candidates," said Grant Benson, CFE, vice president of global franchising and business development, Dunkin' Brands. "As our brand continues to develop across California, we're looking for entrepreneurs in San Diego with strong financial backgrounds and a passion for their local communities to own their very own ice cream shop." As part of the company's growth plans, new franchisees who sign a development agreement in 2014 and timely open their shops can take advantage of significant offers, including 50% off of the 20-year initial franchise fee -- a $12,500 value – and reduced royalties for the first five years, including the first year at 0% -- a substantial savings from the standard royalty rate of 5.9%.* Furthermore, if the new franchisee signs a multi-unit agreement in 2014, he or she can receive the same incentives for each additional unit that timely opens. Baskin- Robbins is also helping make business ownership a reality for U.S. military servicemen and women. For honorably discharged military veterans who sign an agreement in 2014 and timely develop their shops before the end of 2015, Baskin- Robbins will waive the 20-year initial franchisee fee (a $25,000 value) for their first restaurant and offer a 0% royalty rate for the first two years and a reduced royalty rate for years three through five. If a military veteran signs a multi-unit agreement, he or she will be extended a 20% discount on the 20-year initial franchise fee for up to four additional shops that are timely opened, as well as a 10-year payment plan.* Franchisees enjoy convenient hours of operation, minimal equipment and little product waste. They also benefit from award-winning training programs and comprehensive operating systems designed to help build business.

"Coach Pruitt, he's out there getting the right guys out there," Ramik Wilson said. "He's pushing everybody to be their best and he's going to play the best, and that's what we need - competition."
2. A lot of drills went along with the scrimmaging. Todd Gurley stood out to me in those drills. His lateral movement looks great, and he's looking far more comfortable than he has in the past few practices. He even broke off a run against the defense in a live drill which he took to the corner of the end zone for a diving touchdown. He didn't run like someone doubting their ankle.
3. Who else stood out on offense? Jonathon Rumph. Many have anticipated heavy production from the 6-foot-5 receiver, and it looks like he's starting to get the hang of everything. He matched up well during live drills, and showed he could really go up and get the ball. He was making the most of his size advantage over corners today.
4. Players say the energy we saw on the field today is nothing new. In fact, it's always that way, according to Amarlo Herrera.
"It's pretty much the same," Herrera said.
But the moves that led to such energetic and lengthy practice periods have undoubtedly stemmed from the mass defensive coaching changes Georgia made prior to Spring.
"Nobody is sitting around," Herrera said. "Everybody's just constantly moving."
5. Looking back on the young players who made up Georgia's defense last season, no one would argue that having a full Spring to get back to the basics would be a bad thing. While learning a new defensive playbook can often times be challenging for players, it's been a smooth process under Pruitt.
"He's been doing a great job of just like slowing down everything and really teaching us the basics of all the plays that we need to learn and what we're supposed to look at," Quincy Mauger said. "Coach Pruitt, he brings it to the field and sets a clean slate for everybody."
With everyone competing for a starting position under Pruitt, there's no room for complacency.
"It keeps you on your toes," Mauger said. "It keeps you ready to learn the playbook, and the next person up has got to be ready for it."

- Jews are a people. A group with an ethnic-cultural identity, not only a religion;
- Living exclusively as a minority among other nations is bad for both Jews and Judaism; Jews need to enjoy effective self-determination;
- Jews should strive to create a political community where they are a majority, and can enjoy some control over their political fate, physical safety as individuals and as a collective, and over their sustaining culture(s);
- Jews are as entitled to such self-determination as much as other peoples;
- The place where this effort should be conducted, and where political independence should be revived, is Zion, that is Eretz Yisrael.
I believe that all and only people who adhere to all these statements can be called Zionists. I will not here elaborate further what they mean and why they are justified. The establishment of Israel and the present realities mean that today the last tenet can no longer be contested. Being a Zionist today means that one believes that these statements are still true for the Jewish people, so that the struggle to secure the continuation of the availability of political independence for Jews who want it, in Israel or abroad, is still important and required.
- Jews may join the national home, and in it they can live whole lives, being Jews both in their homes and in their public life;
- A model society (hevrat mofet) is created, reviving the lofty ideals of Israel's prophets concerning social justice for all, as well as a society committed to knowledge and progress;
- The Jewish state should also be a model of acting in fairness and dignity toward all the inhabitants of the state, Jews and non-Jews alike;
- Jewish political independence will be achieved with peace and prosperity in the whole region; striving for peace should be a central pursuit of Zionism, but its absence should not undermine the Jewish national home;
- Cultural and religious pluralism within Judaism, as well as openness to other cultures, will be welcome and encouraged.
- Zionism does not mean, and should not mean, that only Jews should be allowed to live in the Jewish state as equal citizens;
- Zionism does not mean, and should not mean, that the political authority of the Jewish state should apply to the whole of Eretz Yisrael. A Jewish state will not be just or stable without a Jewish majority; Palestinians also have the right to self-determination in part of their homeland;
- Zionists do not have to come to live in Israel, or to stay in Israel;
- Zionism does not entail accepting without criticism or endorsing all the decisions and policies of Israel's elected government.
I thank the organizers for creating this opportunity. This is a conversation that must indeed be continued.

By Erica Brown
Jewish Family & Life (JFL Media), January 2002
The author discusses the definition of myth and its uses. She develops in greater detail Gillmanâ??s distinction among its uses. Although she acknowledges that it works for Gillman and others, she asserts that myth is not a comfortable word; it gnaws away at commitment and trivializes that which is most precious to us.

All reader reviews by Jas
I organised my corporate christmas event and what a fantastic choice. If the pre-booking service was anything to go by then I knew that the actual night itself would be expectional. From beginning to end, the service, attention to detail, the mouth-watering food, the Manager's superb selection of drinks and beverages was nothing short of 5 star. On top of which, the various entertainment ensured that our night was fabulous. Every member of the 60 strong guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves and I have never received some many congratulations and "hoow are you going to top this next year" type comments. Being the organiser, I must also congratulate the management and staff at Pasha as there was not one moment where I felt I had to interject, I myself had a very stress free evening and was able to enjoy the night as much as the others.Well done to Pasha.
