Friend of Doug digs deep against SoccerCity
Mission Valley developers pour cash into San Diego State measure
Matt Potter 6 p.m., Nov. 21
(Page 2 of 16)
Q: How long have you lived away from home?
C: I've been staying here with Dan for the last two weeks.
Q: So technically you're not living together?
C: Well, I'm always here. I'm barely ever home.
Q: Sounds as if you have an uneasy truce.
D: An uneasy truce is a good description. They don't know everything about her day-to-day life. They realize she's an adult, so she's got her own space. She does go back home several times a week. But her mom hasn't been too nosy.
Q: Is she Filipino?
D: She's half French, half Filipino.
Q: Do they have a different attitude toward this kind of thing?
C: Filipinos are very strict. They want couples to stay within their culture and age [group].
D: So there's two barriers. But culturally speaking, she's an average person. I mean, she was born here and she doesn't really have to abide by the Filipino rules.
Q: How did your friends react, Chris?
C: They were, like, "You like the guy, go for it."
Q: And yours, Dan?
D: The guys are pretty casual about it, but the girls are kind of shocked. Everybody's nice enough, because Chris is so sweet, but my ex-wife looked at me and her exact words were that I was a pedophile. Chris does look like she's 15 or 16, but she's not [that young] mentally. She's got a lot of life experience for someone in their twenties. I could never look at a child and have the feelings that I have for her. I was a perfect gentleman, and we discussed things. It's not like I approached some kid in a schoolyard, which is what went through my head when [my ex-wife] called me a pedophile -- that really hurt.
Q: Have strangers said, "You have a lovely daughter," or asked, "Is that your daughter?"
D: Yes, my boss. He came into the office one day, and I had her picture up on the desk, and he said, "Oh, is that your daughter?" We get interesting reactions. When we started being close in public, we were more comfortable with her holding my arm rather than holding my hand.
C: One time someone said, "Gee, he's holding his daughter's hand."
D: There's been other times where they'll give me a dirty look. We were at the Padres game, and she was sitting on my lap some of the time. There were two couples on either side of us. One couple's reaction was not so good, but with the other couple, the girl was kind of smiling at me. After the game was over, I leaned over and said, "Age is nothing but a number." And she said, "My boyfriend is much older than me." She was smiling because she understood. She was looking and appreciating the relationship rather than judging.
Q: Are there any differences having to do with age that are particularly noticeable?
C: Now you're going to make me think. [Laughs.] I can't think of any.
D: Really, we don't have a lot. I stay pretty current on music and movies and such. I mean, I don't try and walk and talk like I'm 20. That's ridiculous. But I do connect on a much younger level. Chris is only 21, so there are some things she hasn't experienced yet. But that's not a bad thing. It's more of an openness to learn new things, an innocence. Actually, it's quite attractive.
Q: So what is it about people your age that makes them unsuitable as romantic partners?
C: They act too immature. I don't need that in my life. And they're all into drama.
Q: Have you played "When I'm x-age, you'll be y"?
D: Of course. I was graduating San Diego State with my first degree when she was born. So, yes, we've played that game.
Q: What do you take from those conversations? Live for today? Don't think about it? Men age better than women?
D: I've been the one to say things like, "I'm going to be having arthritis by the time you're getting to the peak of your youthfulness." And she says, "Oh, come on, it's not going to be like that. You're too young and vital." So I just tell myself, to hell with it, I'll live for the moment. I think about it more than she does, but as long as I'm enjoying myself now and we're having a nice relationship and she's sweet to me, what more do I need? If one day she decides that she wants a younger man, I'll deal with it then. For now, I'm happy. I'm not sweating it too much.
Q: That leads to my next question. Does the age difference spice up your physical relationship?
D: Yes.
Q: The taboo --
D: Absolutely. And she reminds me of when I was younger and more into the fun, devil-may-care kind of naughtiness. So yes, it is attractive to me, absolutely.
Q: And you, Chris?
C: I don't know. Not so much for me.
D: You don't see it as a taboo kind of thing?
C: No, just as a relationship.
Q: Would you do it again?
D: It's an individual case. It's not about repeating a pattern or anything like that. I love her. The person could be older than me, or they could be younger than me. Would I make the effort if I thought that I felt something for someone who was much younger? Certainly. I wouldn't turn away from it just because of age. [Chris and I] just happen to connect. Had we not made that effort to be friends, I probably would never have considered [starting] a relationship with her.
Q: Is it harder than you thought it was going to be?
D: Sometimes. For instance, we went to Mother's Day with my family yesterday, and for a while there I was uncomfortable, and I know Chris was [too].
C: Oh, yes.
D: She was having a good time, but I could tell when she looked at me sometimes that she was uncomfortable. Part of that had to do with the fact that my soon-to-be ex-wife is so close to my family. And her best friend in the world is my sister-in-law, who was hosting the party. So, there are times when it is very difficult. But the times that it's not outweigh those.

Indigenous people can call on prophecies to deal with climate change
Civilizations worldwide have collapsed as a direct or indirect result of climate change. And indigenous people can look to their ancestors' stories and prophecies to help guide survival through the current weather fluctuations.
That was a message John Mohawk delivered as the opening speaker at the Ancient Voices -- Contemporary Contexts Forum at Bemidji State University on Friday.
Co-sponsored by the Traditional Circle of Indian Elders and Youth and the American Indian Institute of Bozeman, Mont, the forum brought together Indians and non-Indians from around the country to discuss situations during changing times.
Lee Cook, American Indian Resource Center director, said he began organizing the forum for about one year. With Bemidji geographically central to easterners, such as the Seneca and Onondaga, and westerners, such as the Hopi, with BSU's resources, he said the site is a good fit. The format for the conference, which will continue through Sunday, features keynote speakers alternated with small-group discussions.
Keynote speaker today will be Oren Lyons, Onondaga Faithkeeper and respected voice for the Iroquois Confederacy and on Sunday, Wilma Mankiller, former Cherokee chief.
Mohawk, a Seneca author and professor, cited the crimes by Europeans settlers against Indians as the greatest of crimes against humanity. He took his audience back through history to the Papal decree during the early years of world exploration allowing Christians to enslave non-Christians.
"These are people they didn't even know about yet," he said.
He reviewed the horrific details of the Spanish conquest of the New World and the historical references to climate change in the past causing pestilence and famine and, sometimes, causing the dissolution of civilizations on the American and Old World continents.
"Terrorists have never brought a civilization down," Mohawk said. "Climate change has brought it down lots of times. This has happened before."
In the way, Mohawk touched on the way racism is a rationalization for maltreating people -- the conquerors are superior, so it's OK to treat them badly. He also cited major differences in world view between the Europeans and Indians.
"The Indians are celebrating nature, but the Christians are afraid of nature," Mohawk said. "We happen to live on a planet that's just warm enough and filled with all sorts of wonderful things. It was very hard to make them materialistic because of that."
He noted that the Europeans also arrived in the New World during a few centuries of "the nicest weather."
Because the Indians weren't going to give up their religion and outlook on life voluntarily, he said the Europeans coerced them into converting by force and by destroying their self-sufficiency.
Mohawk said technology can't turn around the climate change. Phenomena such as rising water causing people to evacuate low-lying areas and melting of ice in northern regions are facts.
"When something happens for the first time in recorded history, it's the beginning of a trend," he said. "When it happens again, it is a trend. What's going to happen is already happening."
But people can improve their lot during hard times by returning to cultivating crops that are not owned by big corporations. Supporting community sustainable agriculture and diversity of crops in efficient small farms would be a buffer against what "are likely to go very wrong in the next generation," Mohawk said.
"On the Indian side, there has to be a revitalization of that," he said. "We're already having it, but we need to step it up a little bit."

Now Reading
Mark CohonCFL.caThanks to you, our fans, our league is having a great year.
And now that we've reached the midway point of this season, I wanted to share with you a bit of a half-time report on the 2010 season.
Our attendance is strong, at an average of 28,322 per game. We're basically even with last year at this point and Scotiabank Labour Day Weekend featured tremendous crowds.
The television ratings for the CFL on TSN and RDS continue to soar. They're up 9 per cent over last year. On average, more than 910,000 Canadians watch each regular season game, and we've had several games with audiences exceeding one million viewers. In fact, overnight ratings for last weekend indicate an average of 1.1 million Canadians watched the four Scotiabank Labour Day Weekend games.
On the football side, the game has been exciting, with almost half of our games (44.4 per cent) decided in the final three minutes. (By that, I mean that either the winning points were scored in the final three minutes or the winning team had less than a seven point lead and stopped the other team's final drive.)
The big kick return has made a comeback this season. We're on pace to have the highest frequency of kick returns for TDs ever in the CFL – one every three games.
Overall, scoring is up five per cent over last year, at 53.9 points per game. It's up 15 per cent, by the way, from 2006.
The passing game is having a banner year: our quarterbacks have completed an amazing 62.9 per cent of their passes. That's on pace to surpass the record for the highest completion percentage in a season, 62.7 per cent set in 2008.
The rushing stats are fascinating. While we're seeing the second fewest number of rushes per game ever, at 38.3 rushing plays a game, the average gain per carry is an astounding 6.1 yards, the highest ever.
So you can't help but wonder if teams will run the ball more in the second half of the season, as they adjust and counter adjust as we progress towards the playoffs and the Grey Cup.
Speaking of Grey Cup, we're all gearing up for Edmonton this November, excited by the fact that the 2010 Grey Game sold out last June – one week after tickets went on sale to the general public and five and a half months before the game.
We're also looking forward to Grey Cup 2011 in Vancouver. And work has already started on an event for the ages – the One Hundredth Grey Cup in 2012. Toronto will host that game and festival, but we also plan to take the spirit of the Grey Cup, and the trophy itself, across the country in a truly national celebration of our game and our country and what they mean to each other.
In the meantime, we're just a few weeks away now from Scotiabank Touchdown Atlantic in Moncton – the first ever regular season CFL game in Atlantic Canada, featuring the Edmonton Eskimos and Toronto Argonauts on Sunday, September 26th.
That game also sold out with incredible speed and we're hoping thousands more join us for an uniquely Atlantic Canadian celebration – a sort of mini-Grey Cup festival — that will fill that entire weekend with fun events.
Many of you have asked me about adding a permanent CFL team in Atlantic Canada. We know this game is going to be a great success, and there is talk about it becoming an annual event. But a lot has to happen before we can seriously talk about expansion to Atlantic Canada, including development of a proper stadium and the emergence of the right owners. The best way I can put it is the tremendous enthusiasm of fans out east has transformed this idea from a dream to a possibility – not a probability and far from a certainty, but a possibility.
Of course, we're already on the road to expansion in Ontario, with Ottawa set to join the league in 2013. City Council there has approved a beautiful redevelopment of Lansdowne Park, including a refurbished Frank Clair Stadium. And our football operations people are already discussing possible expansion draft rules with our teams.
There are also exciting stadium projects that are either underway or have been recently completed in Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Winnipeg, and Montreal.
I know there is concern across the league about the future of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, one of our oldest and proudest franchises. The stadium discussion in Hamilton has been a very challenging political situation, and it's going to take time to work out. I'm hopeful a solution can be found that is in the best interests of the team and our fans in that region. And I and my team are working very closely with the Tiger-Cats towards that goal.
The important thing to note is Bob Young remains on a mission to not only sustain the team, but to actually save it for the long run by ensuring it is financially viable, while he is owner, and long after he is owner. That is why he has been working towards a proper stadium in a location that's right for the community and makes business sense for the Tiger-Cats. All of us who love this league owe him a debt of gratitude for his passion and perseverance. He is typical of our owners and Governors: they really see themselves as stewards of something that is very special and uniquely Canadian, and they often fulfill that responsibility by investing their money as well as their time and dedication.
I'm sure while some of you are celebrating your favourite team's promising first-half performance, others are concerned about a team that's struggling. Well, there is a lot of football to be played. It has long been said that in the CFL our second season really starts on Labour Day, so we'll see how things work out for all of our teams. The beauty of our format is everyone is still in the hunt.
What I can tell you, for sure, that our league is in good shape. All leagues, all businesses, face challenges, and we are no exception. But overall, the CFL is in a strong position. The credit for that goes to players and coaches that put a great product on the field, a Board of Governors that provide us all with principled and dedicated leadership, our partners who are so essential to our success, and most importantly, you, our fans. When we say This is Our League, we really mean that it belongs to you, and your fellow Canadians who love it and support it. And you're doing a great job of supporting the CFL again in 2010.
Thank you for being such a fan, enjoy the upcoming run to the playoffs, and I hope to see you on the road to the Grey Cup.

INDUSTRIAL peace at Curtis Island near Gladstone has been won with huge pay rises for the workforce.
Tradesmen's wages have jumped about $40,000 to about $200,000 a year.
Workers have also won a promise that construction company Bechtel will eventually give the fly-in, fly-out workers their own room at the camp and bring an end to the hated practice of "motelling'' in which workers get a different room every time they return to the island.
The vote by the 8000-person workforce is expected to bring an end to the strike action initiated by about 150 CFMEU members that meant at one point 2000 workers were either not working or unproductive.
The vote on Bechtel's third offer was finalised yesterday and endorsed by just 54 per cent of those who voted.
It came as the Australian Bureau of Statistics released average weekly adult full-time wages had risen 2.5 per cent in the past year to $75,600.
The acceptance of the deal may mean significant pay increases but will also mean the CFMEU's push to reduce the fly-in, fly-out roster from four weeks to three has been defeated.
It will also be a significant blow to union control of workers on the island but also mean the project's timetable to deliver its first export shipment later this year should be met.
Bechtel has also promised it will remove any warnings issued to workers who took part in unprotected industrial action.
The project — construction of three LNG plants to export gas worth about $60 billion — was hit by a wave of industrial action which was found to be unlawful and ended with Federal Court orders to return to work.
Bechtel general manager for Gladstone Kevin Berg said: "… the industrial action had some impact … the projects but we will continue to work to bring these LNG plants online."
"There is no doubt the actions of the CFMEU and others over the past week have caused some disruptions for our employees coming to and from work, some interruptions to work on the projects and concern and frustration in the community,'' Mr Berg said
"But our employees have had their say.
"As promised, after Fair Work approval is obtained for the agreement, our employees will receive their back pay to 1 May and the additional benefits will be introduced. with this now behind us, we can all move on with the task at hand.
"Obviously the industrial action had some impact to work on the projects but we will continue to work hard to bring these LNG plants online towards first LNG production."
The pay increases will come in the form of productivity payments and increases to other There will also be improved return home travel arrangements for FIFO employees.

I've been trying different styles of steel targets, and this is my latest addition. I can't wait to get it out and see how well it works. The photo is pretty self-explanatory, but what you can't see are two heavy duty springs between the base and the target that allow it to swing. So you hear the clang and see the swing with every hit.
Shooting steel is also a lot more fun than shooting paper (after you've sighted in, of course). You don't have to keep walking up and down the range to change targets. Set them up once and blast away.
It's rated for both handguns and centerfire rifles. It's recommended for 10 yards minimum distance for handguns and 100 yards for rifles. The target is made from ar500 steel, which is nearly indestructible, even with high-power rifles and full-metal jacket bullets. If it starts getting pitted, you can turn it around.
I bought this one primarily for the height because nothing is more frustrating than setting up your reactive target and having it obscured by grass. The base of the bullseye is at least a foot off the ground with the stake pounded all the way in.
Hunting season is getting close, and I am looking forward to getting out and practicing with my rifles. After they're sighted in, I like to take shots that simulate actually hunting conditions while sitting, kneeling, rested on a backpack, etc. I might even run a little or do jumping jacks to get my heart rate up. You learn pretty fast which shots you can make and which ones require more practice.
The cost was $100 on sale, and $129 regular price, not including shipping, which was about $16.
Here are the vitals:
Height: 20 inches (not including base)
Diameter of bullseye: 8 inches.
Weight: 13 pounds.

The Classic Player Jaguar Special takes everything that made the Jaguar such a revolutionary instrument in the 1960s and adds some modern player-requested touches. The alder body is loaded with new pickups that provide fatter tone and hotter output. Another interesting enhanced feature is the neck pocket is cut differently for better pitch. The trem plate has been moved to increase the break angle and improve sustain. The Classic Player Jaguar Special also sports an Adjusto-Matic bridge for great intonation. The Classic Player Jaguar Special merges the past and the present!
There are a variety of new features on the Classic Player Jaguar Special that set it apart from its vintage-styled siblings. New pickups provide fatter tone and more output and an Adjusto-Matic bridge keeps intonation in check. Medium jumbo frets make bends easier and a new neck pocket cut provides better pitch and a comfy feel. Another cool modification from the original, the trem plate has migrated closer to bridge to increase break angle and sustain and a screw-in tremolo arm is also a stark improvement over the original. Black plastic knobs and switches round out the features.

Matthew Bourne, one of the most well-known figures of the ballet world, is bringing his unique vision to a new stage version of The Red Shoes.
The famed choreographer will base his new version of the story on the Academy Award-winning 1948 film, which starred Moira Shearer as a ballerina forced to choose between her career and love. It was inspired by the original Hans Christian Andersen tale, a suitably dark fable about a vain child whose red shoes never stop dancing, causing her misery and pain throughout her life. The story fared less well as a stage show in 1993, losing $8 million and closing after five days.
"Everything is a risk, who knows what is successful these days," said Bourne. "The risk of this is that it is not so well known… audiences want something they know a bit. It is our job now to introduce people to the world of the film, the story and the music. The film's genius is to make that theatrical world at times surreal, larger than life and highly cinematic. My challenge will be to capture some of that surreal, sensuous quality within the more natural theatre setting."
Following the success of his 2013 all-male production of Swan Lake, Bourne's career has continued to go from strength to strength, with his most recent show, Sleeping Beauty, selling out.
'The Red Shoes' will open in Plymouth in November before moving on to Salford and later London's Sadler's Wells in time for Christmas.

Fellow FreeSoundists,
This is a wonderful community with people that have a knack for sounds.
I thought some of you might be interested in submitting some of your more bizarre sounds, or music if you got it, to our soon-to-be opening community.
Please read below for more details.
Sorry if this is too off topic or disturbs the community here in anyway.
Thanks for your time.
We want your strangest, weirdest, craziest music and/or sounds!
This is a call for submissions
*Have you ever recorded some tracks that sound so strange that you don't know what to do with them?
*Do you enjoy creating very odd music and/or sounds?
*Do you have field-recordings of alien sounds that are impossible to figure out?
*Have you ever secretly recorded crazy music from unsuspecting lunatics?
*Have you never made any recordings but are intrigued by the idea of intentionally recording weird music/sounds?
*Are you a professional musician who sometimes gets tired of pleasing people with proper music that you wish you could sometimes just go crazy and twist the spectrum of aural possibilities?
*Do you make music you feel is normal but when heard by others they laugh uncontrollably and yell out, "WTF?!"?
Well people, we are here for you!
We are in the process of creating a community known as WTFMusic.
What is it?
It deals with music that wobbles on the fringe, music that works with twisted creative ideas that sets it apart from other sounds in the world, music that makes you ask, "WTF?!"
Submitted material will be added to the WTFMusic Radio. We will also have an open blog for an ever growing library where anyone can freely post their WTFMusic to share. The blog will also be used for the discussion of related topics, collaboration projects, WTF ratings, promotion for related artists, notice of related events from around the world and more. And most important, to listen to what others have contributed. It is basically a place that encourages and promotes the strange and bizarre corners of the creative psych - a place where those interested can drop off their most bizarre creations.

Rumors are rampant that Dawson's Creek babe Katie Holmes is in talks to appear in four episodes of Friends later this season playing a youngster with a connection to Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) who ends up falling for Ross (David Schwimmer). But the actress shouldn't bid Dawson and Pacey adieu just yet...
"That's news to me," responds an NBC spokesperson. "But maybe Warner Bros. would know and they just haven't shared yet." Actually, a rep for the studio behind the sitcom also was in the dark about any such development. "I have not heard that at all," she says.
Holmes's publicist, Leslie Sloane, was equally unaware of such negotiations. "If anything, Katie's got a movie in the works, so that doesn't make sense," says Sloane, referring to the Edward Zwick-directed Abandoned, in which the actress will play a college student beset by visions of an old boyfriend.
Sloane points out, however, that Holmes whose roles in such teen-oriented fright flicks as Teaching Mrs. Tingle and Disturbing Behavior have led some to label her the new "Scream Queen" is tackling weightier material with Abandoned. "It's not a horror movie, it's a dramatic thriller," she insists. "Yes, there's death, but it's definitely not 'Scream Queen-esque.'"

Poniendo a la pobreza de ingresos y a la desigualdad en el mapa de México
AThis paper presents income poverty and inequality estimates at the State and Municipal levels for Mexico. Our estimates allow for the mapping of poverty and inequality in the country, as well as for determining the specific contribution of each geographic unit to overall poverty. Additionally, it allows to measure inequality in disaggregated geographic spaces, and to decompose inequality in terms of the proportion due to within and between States and Municipalities. Our estimates are based on robust household income measures, generated with methodologies that allow for solving the common dilemma in welfare measurement, namely that there is either information with low quality measurement but high possibilities of disaggregation, or information with high quality measurement but representative only at aggregated levels.

wikiHow to Choose a Camping Backpack
Selecting the right camping backpack can lead you to many successful adventures, whether for a few-hour hike, a day trip, or an overnight camping excursion. With so many products on the market, knowing how to choose a camping backpack that meets your specific needs requires a little knowledge of features available in this essential piece of camping gear.
1Take stock of the camping gear that you already have, as well as the type of gear you will need to bring along on specific trips.
- If you have older, bulkier camping items, you will need to look for a larger camping backpack with greater storage capacity. Newer camping gear is much lighter and more compact than the older models. If your camping gear is fairly new, you will be able to take a more manageable-sized pack.
- If you intend to go on trips where bears are present, make sure extraneous bulky items such as a bear canister to protect your food will fit into your pack while leaving room for your other supplies.
2Consider the types of trips you are likely to take with your camping backpack.
- If you plan to take shorter trips lasting one to three nights, you can get by with a smaller camping backpack than if you were to take a longer trip. Backpacking manufacturers call smaller packs Multi-day or Weekend Trip packs. They generally hold between 40 and 75 liters, with women's packs generally having a maximum capacity of 65 liters (17.2 US gal).
- If longer trips of 5 or more days are in your future, a pack classified as an Extended Trip pack will be necessary to accommodate all of your gear, as they generally hold over 65 liters (17.2 US gal) of content. Furthermore, this type of pack is appropriate if you will be traveling with children and carrying their gear, or if you are camping in cold weather months for more than one night. This type of pack can carry extra supplies required for extremely cold temperatures.
- If you plan to take some shorter trips and some longer trips, but only want to buy one backpack, your best choice is to select the larger pack designed for extended trips. That way, no matter what length trip you are going on, you will have enough space for your survival essentials and can avoid strapping things to the outside of your pack. Gear on the outside of your pack may snag on branches along the hiking path.
3Decide on a price range that you can afford before you begin shopping. This will help you and the salesperson narrow in on an appropriate pack more quickly.
- Researching camping backpacks by price and size ahead of time will help you know brand names, price ranges and other factors that would help you make your decision when it comes to exactly what you can afford in a backpack.
4Bring your largest camping items to the store with you, such as your tent, sleeping bag, and sleeping pad.
- Try fitting these items into the various camping backpacks available in the store to get an idea for how large of a bag you will need. Make sure there is enough room left for your other camping essentials, such as food, cooking and eating supplies, and clothing.
5Decide what is more important to you: a backpack that is lightweight or a backpack that will be heavier, but that provides maximize comfort, space, and convenience.
- Camping backpacks range from ultra lightweight, which trade convenience to minimize weight, up to deluxe, which adds in comfort and space but that will be heavier. Lightweight backpacks fall somewhere in the middle and are a popular choice.
6Try on the backpacks that you have selected based on your camping needs, and make sure to choose one that fits.
- You should base fit off of whether it is appropriate for your torso length rather than overall height, and whether it fits snugly around your hips. Ask a salesperson to help you determine your torso length and hip size, then look at backpack specs to find one appropriate for your size.

Families overpaying by €2,000 when they renew health cover
FAMILIES are being warned they could end up overpaying by up to €2,000 for their health insurance unless they closely examine their policies and renewal costs.
Around half a million people are due to renew their policies in January alone. But the cost of policies has shot up due to price rises imposed by health insurers and because of severe cuts to tax reliefs in the Budget.
The hikes could see families being asked to shell out an extra €2,000 to insure two adults and two children, Dermot Goode of Healthinsurancesavings.ie said.
Mr Goode did an analysis of existing plans and found that by moving between plans, and staying with the same insurer, it is possible to save between a third and a half of the prices now being quoted to renew a family policy.
"These savings ranged from between €1,595 and €2,360 based on a family of two adults and two children who are insured on some of the older level two hospital plans.
"Given that there will shortly be close to 300 plans on the market, it should be possible in many cases to either maintain or even reduce your healthcare costs," he said.
He cautioned families to avoid "sleep-walking" into paying too much when renewal notices go out to 500,000 people in the coming weeks.
"This month will see thousands of households across the country receive their health insurance renewal notice. This gives people the entire month of December to review their health insurance cover and make savings," Mr Goode said.
Mr Goode said a family on VHI's Healthplus Extra plan could save €1,595 by opting for VHI's Teachers' Plan.
The downside is that there are 22 procedures, such as hip replacements and cataract treatments, where the family has to cover 20pc of the cost if carried out in a private hospital.
And a family on Aviva's Level Two Complete Health could save €2,360 by choosing Aviva's Nurses' and Teachers' Choice plan.
There are 10 procedures that a payment of €2,000 would have to be made by the family if done in a private hospital. And the Beacon private hospital in Dublin is not covered.
Consumers can switch providers with no loss of cover if they are opting for a plan with similar benefits.
There are 250 different plans in the market -- but this is set to jump to 300 with the VHI and Laya Healthcare expected to launch new policies this month.
But Mr Goode said there was a huge risk people would forget about the urgency of sorting out their health insurance renewal because of the mayhem of Christmas preparations.
The health insurance expert said those renewing on January 1 only have a matter of days -- otherwise they may find themselves stuck in a contract and end up paying higher premiums than they need to for another 12 months.
This year health insurance has been hit hard by reduced tax relief, higher levies and a spate of premium increases.
"Having spent the previous month trying to control their pre-Christmas spending, many people inadvertently accept year-on-year increases of up to 20pc on their health insurances costs," he said.
All four insurers -- Laya Healthcare, Vhi Healthcare, GloHealth and Aviva Health -- have new 12-month contracts which mean there is only a short window over the Christmas period to look for special offers available.

UF president Bernie Machen says the proposed cuts will be made public in mid-March.
University of Florida President Bernie Machen delivered somber news Thursday: budget cuts will only grow more dramatic next year.
Machen told the Faculty Senate to prepare for cuts between $72 million and $75 million - roughly 10 percent of UF's total budget - in the fiscal year starting July 1.
By comparison, the budget cut for UF during this current fiscal year was $47 million, and that led to more than 70 layoffs - most of which were non-faculty positions - and the merger of some academic departments.
UF spokeswoman Janine Sikes said it's too early to determine if UF will go through more layoffs because of the budget slashing.
While the expected cut is no doubt a large amount, the news was not unexpected. A few months back, Gov. Charlie Crist told state agencies to prepare for 10 percent cuts, and Machen based his estimate Thursday on that.
Machen told the Senate that the money lost would probably be gone for good and "significantly alter" university operations. How remains to be seen.
Machen said he wants faculty input on recommended reductions and "better transparency" than there was leading up to the current year's budget cuts. He said the university would make the planned cuts public in mid-March "for everyone to see and everyone to discuss."
The final decision on cuts, he noted, would lie with the board of trustees.
To help make up part of the shortfall, Machen said next year the university planned to seek the full 15 percent tuition increase Crist approved for state universities last November.

Very fast, next day delivery.
The bracelet is very nice although after seeing the photo on here, was disappointed with the size of it.
Very pertite and looks more like for a child or teenager. The length is not very long and the hearts are also small but suit the size of the chain.

wikiHow to Fake a Blue Screen of Death
Two Methods:Background image settingUsing Run and NotepadCommunity Q&A
Have you ever wanted to prank someone on the computer, but don't want it to be too complicated? This article will show you how to fool someone into thinking your computer crashed, offering several methods.
Background image setting
1Find a picture of a Blue Screen of Death. These are relatively easy to find on search engines such as Google or Ask, and with others such as Yahoo! and GoodSearch, you can select from a variety of sizes, including wallpaper.
2Set it as your background picture. Just right-click on the image and select, Set as Background.
3Get rid of any icons. You can do this by right clicking on your desktop and clicking on Arrange Icons by moving your mouse down to show desktop icons and clicking on it to uncheck it.(do opposite to fix)
4Use Ctr+Alt+Delete (or your preferred method to run the task manager) and stop the process called explore.exe. This will take away the start bar at the bottom of the screen and make it look as if there really is a blue screen of death on your machine. You can reverse this by using Ctrl+Alt+Delete and click File->Run and type explore.exe to restart the process.
5Get your victim. Have someone come back to glance at their computer, making them think they have a BSOD.
Using Run and Notepad
1Go to Notepad by typing it in Run. The Run keyboard shortcut is Windows Key+R.
2Type in @echo off in the first line to begin.
3Type echo, pause, or dir/s. Type echo to make a sentence or line. Pause makes it say "Press any key to continue".Dir/s makes it scan files to make it look as they are getting deleted. To make a sentence or line you do echo(space)(any text).Simply put just pause to have that. Put dir/s the same way as pause. Each thing must be on a different line. Always end in pause.
4Go to File >> Save As >>. Then change .txt to anything you want then add .bat at the end. On the side of the window click "Desktop". It should have a computer icon. Then click Save.
5Right click it on your desktop and click "Properties". Go to options and make it full screen. Then go to Colors and click the blue. Then select text color on the top corner. Make that bright white.
6Click the icon on your desktop that should have an icon with gears and a paper. Make sure its the same one you edited in properties.
7Done! Now just set it up on the computer and wait for someone to use it.

"Left Behind," the apocalyptic thriller reboot about a biblical event known as "the rapture," is heading to the big screen Oct. 3, helping round off a year packed with films touting Christian and Bible-based themes.
The movie, which is based on the popular book and DVD series by the same name, stars Nicolas Cage as pilot Rayford Steele and Chad Michael Murray as journalist Buck Williams.
TheBlaze recently sat down with Paul Lalonde, the film's producer and writer, to learn more about the its focus on end-times theology and its reemergence in popular culture.
While the people behind the new film were largely responsible for creating the original "Left Behind" movies a decade ago, Lalonde has repeatedly said that audiences can expect a very different finished product from the past.
"The reason to bring 'Left Behind' back is [two-fold]: one is to make it bigger and better, so that we can have a broader reach and a shot at a broader audience," he said. "The first time we did it it was a straight to DVD production."
That in mind, Lalonde said he wanted a bigger movie with a better-known cast, a feat his team was able to accomplish in the new iteration.
"The second reason is that the first movie was based on the entire first book in the series, so a book this fat turned into a screen play with 57 plot points and no real time to get to know the characters," Lalonde continued. "And the quintessential event that triggers all of Bible prophecy is the rapture — and that got like three minutes of screen time in the first movie."
The focus of the new "Left Behind" is exactly that — one that is wholly on the rapture, a theoretical theological event during which Christians will be taken up to heaven by God before the Earth's destruction.
Lalonde believes that this well-known theme has been ignored for far too long.
"If the rapture was a Mayan prophecy there would be 20 Hollywood movies by now for $100 million each," Lalonde said. "But because it's Bible prophecy, it hasn't been touched it hasn't been done and I've always wanted to see it on the big screen."
And now he's preparing to do just that.
The filmmaker believes viewers will be pleasantly surprised by the production value and the movie's feel, which he said doesn't look and feel like many other films in the religious genre.
"I think a lot of the core Christian audience, I think they're going to be surprised at the clarity with which we presented the rapture," he said. "I think people are expecting it to be completely buried and barely mentioned."
When asked how he will explain "Left Behind" to journalists and reporters who might not fully understand end-times theology and the rapture, Lalonde boiled down the film and its central premise in simple terms.
"This is not very complicated. It really isn't," he said. "It's prophesied in the Bible and the Bible says that before the beginning of the tribulation which will be in the end times, which I have no doubt we are living in the end times so therefore it could happen tomorrow that the church is going to be called home and caught up in the air and taken to heaven and that's what this movie's about."
Lalonde said his team had big offers from major studios, but that keeping control over the project was a central goal. Rather than sell out to Hollywood, Lalonde said he made the tough call to raise $16 million independently — a monumental task that allowed him to keep control over the project.
"People are afraid to invest in movies because most people who invest in movies lose their money," he explained. "Especially in the faith-based world, it's called a donation, not an investment."
Once the hard part was over, Lalonde said filming went smoothly and that the cast and crew were delightful. Lalonde quipped that there was a "no egotist policy" on set and said that he and his team worked hard to ensure that positivity trailed throughout the film's production process.
As far as the actors went, Lalonde had nothing but praise for Cage, whom he said brought his "A game," and he also showered accolades upon actress Cassi Thomson, who plays Chloe Steele, Rayford's daughter.
"Cassie was a gamble. Cassie hadn't done a movie before or at least a significant movie if she's done any," Lalonde said.
But she left him utterly impressed.
"Everything about Cassie was perfect. It was a fabulous performance," he added. "She's very athletic and whatever the word is for tomboy, she can climb a tree and not look out of place. So she was just wonderful. She's got a great range. She's going to be a big star."

Hiring a telemarketer to cold-call for me?
14 RepliesJump to last post
I'm just getting started with my financial planning practice, and I was wondering if any of you have hired employees to come in and cold call for you? if so, did they have a securities license? Did you have any success with having an employee cold-call for you?
Thanks for any feedback
Just a thought but it seems your hiring someone to do the hard work you don't want to do. No? Why not do it yourself. They also don't need to be licensed, they only need to be licensed to discuss individual securities and give advice.
Theres a company in my area that does this for insurance and financial service businesses in the area. Im the new guy at my office so I have to make my own cold calls, but I dont see why it would be a bad idea to have someone call for you. I know they have their own leads and im not sure what the costs are associted.

I know they have their own leads and im not sure what the costs are associted.
If they have the leads how do you know they're only selling for you? To maximize profits I'm thinking they're calling the same people for diff Advisors.
Yeah they probably are. But their name is pretty well known so they may be doing some kind of decent business. If they arent producing quality prospects I think they would be figured out and people wouldnt use them. I dont use them, nor would I at this point, but they do exist.
I dont think it hurts to hire a college intern to maximize your call contacts..just make the intern generates a possible lead try to get him to qualify, send some info and just make sure your the one following up.
I've used callers off and on throughout my career. The payoff is leverage. However, to get there is work. The callers have to be trained and have to be supervised.
My best success using callers is hiring temps to call seminar invitees. Either mail call mail or, call mail call works here.
The firms that will allow callers or temps have strict policies in place regading their use. Pay attention, not a good place to cut corners!
Here are some things to consider before you hire anyone: As you already know, there are a lot of headaches anytime you have to hire anyone period. But in your case, the biggest things I see are training and getting them to do it like you would. Then, there's the situation of them knowing how to think on their feet if someone throws them a curve ball that they can't answer on the phone but you could. And the final thing to consider is paying them. With all the crazy new laws, there's no telling what you would have to pay in terms of insurance . . . etc I would say keep that money in your pocket.
If they aren't in your office; how are they communicating with you? Email? Will your compliance team be in a snit if they see lead information being generated outside of their control?
How does their caller ID show up to the prospective client or suspect? If it's THEIR ID - how will they call YOU back? How will their calls back be handled? Who is managing the scripting? Who is doing the followup contact work (emails, mailing, calls, setting appointments, doing confirms, etc.) How is THAT being communicated to you. Are they identifying as calling for you - as someone pointed out, or selling appointments to multiple advisors? Are they breaking DNC laws and is your name in the mix? What if they call on your firm's clients; firm DNC lists, or one of your colleagues accounts and your name is in the mix? You ready for that battle? I'd like to be in the front row to watch that play out. These are some of the things you'd better know and think about up front.
Based on the responses, this looks like a hot topic. And, there are some very good points made. I have had good results using someone to make calls. Even from offshore sources. However, the targets had to be well defined, no DNC, no accents, and scripted. The key is to remember that the point of Lead Generation is to generate a lead. That's it. Seems simple, but many try to take it further than that and that's when things go south. The rest is up to the professional.
WOW, this thread started a year ago, but I thought I would chime in. To those that ranted that the advisor's job is cold calling, wrong. The advisors' true job is conveying the credibility and trust desperately needed in a relative short amount of time (half hour meeting) to take over the management of the clients finances. When the advisor is making the calls, this erodes the credibility and trust right out of the chute. ANNNND, NO, the kid/college student you hire to make those initial cold calls do not need to be licensed...unless they are giving any advise or guidance. I do not believe in scripts, but the 'call template' they are abiding by should only convey the advisors' accolades and reason why the person being called would benefit from an initial meeting. I do agree with MRKEVINP, strategic targeting, NO accents, But NOT SOUNDING SCRIPTED. This is the key. And this is where you have to hire the right person. Not to rant further, but this person probably shouldn't be hired based on typical hiring practices. I don't care about their grades, their financial experience, or even where they worked prior. I am the target prospect. Am I moved enough that they can get me to leave my home during my free time to come in and talk to a person that I know will try to sell me something?
I came here to help and to make alliances with people I can stand OUTSIDE of my pond. I'm not going to pull punches when hear the spoutings coming from those that sound like some firm's SALES MANAGER. I have yet to meet one sales manager that has a freakn clue. That goes for compliance too. I'm independent because I finally realized I was independent anyway, and my affiliation with a firm was only hamstringing me. I have never had to be bailed out by a crap bank, for stupidity and misdeeds for example.
ProGun1. I think you are a little off here when you say that cold calling erodes the trust and credibility of the advisor. I think advisor's believe this story the tell themselves because it gives them an excuse not to call. Every advisor has to prospect and to just sit back and get referrals or hiring someone else to do it for you because it's so difficult is kind of a cop out in my opinion. To say that the advisor is to too busy to do so is also another cop out. Every advisor can at least carve two hours out of their day to make a few dials. Once in the morning and once in the afternoon. The hard part is picking up the phone it's that simple. If you want to hire someone then hire a junior advisor who can help you get in front of someone. If you just hire a cold caller they'll burn out in a few months and you'll get nothing from it. Cold calling is a long term commitment and it takes at least six months to land 1 client from it if you are targeting the right people.

Microsoft still struggling to kill off Win XP, IE6 and Office 2003
As the worldwide head of Microsoft's application compatibility program it's Chris Jackson's job to help migrate enterprise customers to the latest MS platforms while officially âretiringâ outdated software. This includes old favourites (and legacy enterprise touchstones) such as Windows XP Internet Explorer 6 and Office 2003. So if it's his job to kill off support could he rightly be considered the hitman for pre-loved Microsoft products?
âIt's funny" Chris says "because the word 'retire' was recently put in there [in Chris's bio] because it used to be 'kill' and then there was this notion that 'That's not politically correct… we might want to think of a different term'. So we actually have an initiative right now… It's not just saying the new product is so awesome but the old product is something that no longer is meeting the awesomeness requirements that you [as a customer] have.â
Microsoft's Chris Jackson.
Chris known within Microsoft as the âApp Compat Guyâ keeps a âsupport countdown gadgetâ on his desktop which tells him exactly how much longer legacy systems will be maintained. He didn't have it on him when we met at this year's Tech.Ed but off the top of his head… where does XP stand now? â900 and some odd days… [support will end] somewhere in mid 2014.â
For the kinds of large-scale enterprises that Chris helps with their migrations (pretty much the biggest entities you can imagine like the approx. 500000-seat strong US Air Force) it can be a pretty major task. So one thing organisations should strive for is not just being up to date but to consciously manage as much as possible their âtechnology agilityâ.
âThe reason why enterprises standardise is not because they are control freaks. [These days] everyone is so busy they're just like: 'Whatever I can do to make it possible to do my job and keep costs down I'll do it'. It's all about managing the risk. I don't want to have to be constantly testing and doing what I call running in place.â
âAt the same time one of [Microsoft's] goals is to help customers become more agile so that we don't have as many really deeply baked independencies that make it so that every transition is a large project. So [the question is] can you make yourself better able to make the next transition less expensive and less time-consuming by taking some pro-active actions now?â
The particular benefits of upgrading vary depending on the platforms organisations utilise and what they want to achieve but in terms of Microsoft's offerings — with its current promotion of Windows 7 IE 9 and Office 2010 — the common incentive Chris says is large-scale businesses will ultimately save money in the long term.
âIt depends upon the platform. Each platform has its own value proposition that comes up in terms of what sells it.â According to Chris the potential cost savings of deploying Win 7 can range widely. He gave examples citing the ease of implementing standard user accounts through to power savings made via the broad eradication of unnecessary screensavers.
âIn the IE[9] space [user] capabilities are what I see as being the big sell particularly when you look at what you can do with HTML5… With Office [2010] it's end user productivity.â He readily concedes deploying Office 2010 often requires staff training to overcome the likely post-adoption productivity dip but says afterwards productivity goes âway upâ.
âThe [common] thing is it's all about money right? … It costs you something to get there but the end result is you should [save] more and if you plan it correctly I can't think of a platform we're pushing right now where it doesn't come out that way.â

Feeling half asleep? Snooze like a dolphin!
It might sound like an impossible task, but dolphins keep half of their brain awake while the other half sleeps!
[Science Daily]
Source: www.sciencedaily.com
Imagine being able to sleep through the morning while part of your brain stayed conscious! Clever trick, eh?
For a dolphin, being able to detect sound for days on end might be very important to survive the dangers of the deep.
After 5 whole days of being able to hear and see, the dolphins' reactions were as fresh as when the experiment started!
The scientists, however, were very tired!!!
Luckily our sleep is mostly done in safe places, so we can let all of our brain rest at the same time - if we don't get enough sleep our reactions become slow and inaccurate.
How much sleep do you need? It depends on how old you are, but look here for a rough guide

A Maryland man who admitted participating in an illegal street race that killed eight people has been sentenced to 15 years in prison.
Before a Prince George's County judge imposed his sentence on Tuesday, 22-year-old Darren Bullock of Waldorf said he understands the pain the accident caused and accepts responsibility for his actions.
Prosecutors say Bullock was racing 20-year-old Tavon Taylor in February 2008 when Bullock slammed into a crowd in the road watching a different race, killing eight people. Bullock pleaded guilty in January to eight counts of vehicular manslaughter.
Taylor was convicted Monday of driving in an illegal street race and reckless driving, but the jury deadlocked on vehicular manslaughter charges. His retrial on those counts was scheduled on Tuesday for Oct. 18.

Having 2 TiVo HD's, 1 HDDVD, 1 PS3, 1 PS4, 1 HTPC -> AV Receiver w/ Audio Decode -> TV and only wanting Audio coming via my AV Receiver only to my HT Speaker system.
This means my AV receiver becomes my HDMI Switcher as well - I don't want everything always passed through my XB1 (assuming I get one next year) to be passed on to my TV.
It's theoretically possibly but then how do I pull out my XB1 audio? I suppose I could output optical out to the receiver.
My wife barely can get things turned on as it is with macro's on my remote - she'd be totally lost sticking the XB1 in the middle.
This works well for Joe Blow that just has a single Cable Box / other input and no AV Receiver Setup (i.e. using TV speakers) it doesn't work to well with a decent amount of equipment in a HT Setup.
That said it is probably a very large percentage of TVs w/ Game Consoles that do not have a HT setup.

Couldn't you just run one of the Tivos through the XBox before it goes to the receiver? You wouldn't have to run everything through it just the TV signal. Then you run the XBox to the receiver and you're good to go. Receiver still does your switching and the only macro you have to change is to add the XBox to your TV macro.
09-05-2013 #9
My TV has it, and that's how i get my audio from my TV apps out to the receiver. If you have ARC, your XB is hardwired through for passthrough, so, the XB1 will do ARC from it's own HDMI input and when it's off your XB1 will just passthrough physically.
09-05-2013 #10
That said if the XB1 is HW for passthrough when powered off, then I'm satisfied and would be willing to route one of my TiVo's through it.
If I route this TiVo HD -> XB1 -> AV Receiver -> TV there's no need for ARC and I'd just use one HDMI input to my AV Receiver. Given that XB1 when off would be passthrough and when on would be able to drive the HDMI on it's own or supplement w/ the TiVo HD's feed.
This is one thing that always irritates me about just about every electronics manufacture. They almost never include the fine details that I want and need up front and end up leaving more questions on the table than answers.

Johannesburg - A gay music teacher and organist fired by a Pretoria NG Church has found work again, with a different branch of the same church in the Eastern Cape, according to Sunday's Rapport.
Johan Strydom was approached by the NG Church in Kareedouw after its congregation and preacher, Dr Kobus Bohnen, learnt Strydom was living in Jeffreys Bay.
In September 2008 the Moreleta Park, Pretoria NG Church apologised to Strydom for unfairly discriminating against him by firing him when it learnt he was in a homosexual relationship. The high court in Pretoria also ordered the church to pay him R87 000 in damages.
Strydom told Rapport the money brought little comfort.
"It was rather the hand a small community like Kareedouw extended to me that rekindled my faith in the NG Church and in people."
The Moreleta Park church decided not to appeal the high court's ruling, including in its reasons that "the fundamental right of the church to freely believe in the Bible was not violated".
