I haven't been outside since about 9am, is anybody still here?
[Update I:]
Gatesgate. Digby expresses herself on this much better than I can.
This is all in my 'not so humble opinion.'
I just posted this on Facebook:
Sgt. James Crowley refuses to apologize to distinguished Professor Henry Louis Gates for arresting him at his home without probable cause. The Mayor has issued an apology, but the arresting officer and instigator refuses to recognize his fault.
Some background: I have lived in Las Vegas, NV since 1985. My first 'big city.' Prior to that, I went to college in Kansas and lived in rural Oregon and Arizona while working as an archaeologist.
I do not know how may of you have ever been 'abused' by the police, but I have had my wrist forced up between my shoulder blades, multiple times, had my day pack emptied on the ground, had my briefcase contents unceremoniously dumped onto a parking lot, had 2-liter bottles of soda poured out – though I have never been charged, never been told what I was suspected of
, and never been given an apology afterwards. Even an, "Oops, we made a mistake." This is while I was thin, not so thin, with a shaved head, while very hairy, on the UNLV campus, on the DRI campus, riding a bicycle on campus, while driving a white pick-up truck in the suburbs.
One thing we forget is that our Police Departments have been given a mandate to fight an undeclared war against an enemy that only they can see. Because of the 'War on Drugs' and now the 'War on Terrorism,' the mandate to 'protect' us, – and lacking an exterior adversary, apparently from ourselves – is fully operational.
You *are* guilty until proven innocent. To pretend otherwise is to be, …, naive. Their mandate is to uncover the hidden menace. I am unsure how to pass this along to my 7 year old who I have taught to think, "policemen are my friends!" Until you're about 11, buddy. (This breaks my heart.)
I know that Sgt.Crowley has been trained to *diffuse* antagonistic situations, Even if the perp is *wrong* and the officer has chosen to not follow that procedure, even after proper ID was provided and the situation was diffused. He chose to be aggrieved and offended. He let his ego get in the way.
I know we recruit from the human race, but we ask for a higher calling and Sgt. Crowley accepted that.
In my opinion, you *do* have a problem, Sgt, Crowley. ""That apology will never come from me as Jim Crowley, it won't come from me as sergeant in the Cambridge Police Department," Sgt. James Crowley told Boston radio station WEEI. "Whatever anybody else chooses to do in the name of the city of Cambridge or the Cambridge Police Department which are beyond my control, I don't worry about that. I know what I did was right. I have nothing to apologize for.""
In my opinion and experience, Sgt. Crowley, yes you do have something to apologize for. This is not a case of 'if the public would just straighten up, we would be fine…'
Just an aside – why did they take the word of someone who obviously did not know who lived in that house that it was being broken into?
In this case, the police (or at least this officer) are part of the problem.
Yes, I support the police and their mission. Just quit dealing in dualistic thinking.
I have been told (recently, by multiple conservative friends, relatives, and in-laws) that there are 'plenty of people who want to work' if I don't want to 'do the job.' Sgt. Crowley, the door is over there.
We choose the moon is an interactive experience recreating the historic Apollo 11 mission to the Moon in real time. Live event begins 9:32 AM EDT July 16, 2009. Exactly 40 years after Apollo 11 lifted off.
This was one of the highlights of growing up geek. I was 13 at the time and pretty much stayed up for a week watching the TV coverage. That meant Walter Cronkite on CBS. This was NEWS, you couldn't entrust your information source to some amateurs.
So, for your pleasure, here is a video of Neil Young on SNL several years ago. If you are unmoved, I simply have no response.
*I no longer have any idea where this video arose from. It was on a hard drive on my home LAN. I am positive someone other than myself owns the rights to this video.
On this day in 1925, the 'Scopes Monkey Trial' began.
So, while you are definitely not a monkey's Uncle, I can teach that a monkey's ancestor, may in fact, be my and your ancestor as well.

Everyone remembers Columbine. One of the reporters of the original event, Dave Cullen, wrote a book about Columbine. It sounds like much of what was told to us is incorrect. [link via Doug]
10 years later, the real story behind Columbine [USA Today]
Their rampage put schools on alert for "enemies lists" made by troubled students, but the enemies on their list had graduated from Columbine a year earlier. Contrary to early reports, Harris and Klebold weren't on antidepressant medication and didn't target jocks, blacks or Christians, police now say, citing the killers' journals and witness accounts. That story about a student being shot in the head after she said she believed in God? Never happened, the FBI says now.
I have the book on reserve from the library. I'm curious about reading it.
What happened to Randi Rhodes?
Is she still off the air? What's it been – 30 days?
Did she get fired from Nova M Radio? Is she back in Palm Beach at her former radio station?
What about Thom Hartmann? Since he and Air America 'parted ways' I can't get his podcast, even from his direct site.

I would love to receive some advice on choosing the right size and shape for vines. For example, for Vigna caracalla, it's supposed to grow 15-20', but how wide? Should I get a long trellis or a wide trellis? Is it a matter of pruning to control/shape it? I'd like to grow different vines against a wall of 25' long and 15' tall. Not sure how many vines I can fit. So for I got Vigna caracalla, Honeysuckle 'Golden Flame', and Ampelopsis brevipedunculata 'Elegans', and Passionflora 'Pink Lady'. They are all about 15' long.
Thanks in advance for your advice!
Size of trellis
You have chosen some big vines. I like to recommend using cattle panels, found in the concrete section at Home Depot. Against a wall, the panel would soon be covered in vines, so not seen. The Vigna will be swollowed up by the other vines you've planted - I'd find a place for it, where it doesn't have to compete with its much bigger cousins.
Thanks! I will check out the cattle panel.
Great job!

TORONTO (Reuters) - The heads of Canada's four largest banks said on Thursday they remain focused on capital conservation because of uncertainty over global regulatory changes and the riskiness of making acquisitions.
Gord Nixon, chief executive of Royal Bank of Canada, the nation's biggest bank, and Ed Clark, chief executive of Toronto Dominion Bank, the No. 2 bank, both said Canadian banks have strong capital levels compared with global rivals, but that there is no rush to spend it on acquisitions.
"I don't think most Canadian bank CEOs are going to be rushing to burn through their capital until they have some certainty of (global rules)," Clark told investors at an RBC Capital Markets banking conference in Toronto.
TD, which has focused its expansion strategy on the U.S. retail banking market, said it has mostly ruled out a blockbuster purchase in the United States.
"We've always said, not that everything would absolutely have to be an FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corp)-assisted deal, but it would have to be a small deal where we thought the catastrophic risk was estimable, so the idea that we would go out and do a big acquisition -- I just don't think it is in the cards."
RBC's Nixon said the lack of mergers and acquisitions in financial services generally, particularly in the U.S. market, is due to a lack of clarity about asset values and risks. He said it is "almost irresponsible" to go out and invest in the current uncertain environment.
Sabi Marwah, chief operating officer at Canada's third-largest lender, Bank of Nova Scotia, said there were only two areas that might offer the internationally focused bank the opportunity for a large acquisition: Mexico, where it already has a strong presence; and Canada, where it has a stake in CI Financial Corp.
Bill Downe, CEO of Bank of Montreal, the nation's No. 4 bank, said there is no question that Canadian banks in general, and BMO in particular, are far better capitalized than global rivals. He said that puts BMO in a good position to expand as peers work to rebuild their cash reserves.
BMO has focused its expansion goals on the U.S. Midwest. (Reporting by Andrea Hopkins; editing by Peter Galloway)

Mistake Creek MassacrePrint Page
Memorial at the aboriginal massacre site at Mistake Creek near the Warmun Community.
The Sisters of St Joseph, who have selflessly served the indigenous peoples of the East Kimberley for many years, erected a small monument at the foot of the old boab tree at Mistake Creek to mark the place where the killings occurred. There, on All Souls Day each year, representatives of the Kija gather in prayer and fellowship with non-indigenous fellow Australians, to mourn those who were killed.
In 1915 Seven Kija people were alleged to have been killed by men under the control of a Constable Rhatigan, at Mistake Creek, East Kimberley. The massacre is supposed to be in reprisal for allegedly killing Rhatigan's cow, however the cow is claimed to have been found alive after the massacre had already taken place. Rhatigan was arrested for wilful murder apparently due to the fact that the killers were riding horses which belonged to him, but the charges were dropped, for lack of evidence that he was personally involved.
The historian Keith Windschuttle disputes the version put forward by former Governor-General of Australia, William Deane, in November 2002. Windschuttle found the massacre took place on March 30, 1915, not in the 1930s, and was not a reprisal attack by whites over a cow, but "an internal feud between Aboriginal station hands" over a woman. "No Europeans were responsible." However, members of the Gija tribe, from the Warmun (Turkey Creek) community have depicted the massacre in their artworks.

The selling point of the brand's heritage, helping them to invite consumers into their communities, it is a way of combining Take a look at Louis Vuitton during the Autumn women last year, Marc Jacobs himself wrote. the sentence was announced that house of Monogram and Damier canvas is nowhere to be seen on the runway. anyone who is even vaguely familiar with the brand Louis Vuitton is their familiarity with Monogram and Damier canvas. their reputation for quality manufacturing, Savoir faire leather, but many people do not know that Louis Vuitton is a brand that is recognized for their movie work are exempt. But the origins of the brand is very similar to that of the maker Goyard trunk Paris by Vuitton and passed down through generations Louis Vuitton label was founded. By its tourism and textiles, canvas, leather is not. But Louis Vuitton is not that many people know today. Today it is recognized as one of the retailers across the nation's leading luxury fashion men sleepwear, although the brand did not enter the fashion men sleepwear industry until 1997, when Aisha Walker was appointed as artistic director and so. the first production Collection of pr?t-a- porter label ever.

The winter UGG® 'Robinson' Stretch Cotton Robe are made by two layers of materials in general. men sleepwear works by locking in the cold by means of a system of building insulation in winter men sleepwear. The work wear of cold work on the principle of insulation in winter. The materials used in these garments by adding a layer of insulation between the cold body and UGG® 'Robinson' Stretch Cotton Robe. The material absorbs the least amount of moisture from the body, allowing fast drying and control the flow of air in the insulating layer is formed. Tightly woven material, and in order to continue to maintain the warmth produced by the body of the wearer. The increase in the polyester layer on the inner surface helps to keep moisture better and keeps the skin dry. Cotton does not have insulating properties when it becomes wet. But this is not the case with the hair as it can be cold, wet insulation. Wool is also naturally occurring fire retardant and are therefore advantageous than cotton.

When it came to office in 2001, the Bush administration stepped into the largest surpluses in American history in nominal terms. The Bush administration then proceeded to convert $5.6 trillion in projected surpluses -- its number, $5.6 trillion -- into nearly $4 trillion in projected deficits, all of it added to the national debt. SEN. KENT CONRAD (D-ND): (From videotape.) The numbers released by the Congressional Budget Office today are jaw-dropping. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: The Congressional Budget Office issued a 50-page grim picture of the national economy this week. A few of its features: Current recession probably to be the longest and deepest since World War II, but not comparable, as often is alleged, to the Great Depression; GDP growing by only 1.5 percent in 2010, not its standard 2.3 percent; unemployment over 9 percent in early 2010; national average home prices down 14 percent between 2008 and 2010; the GDP hitherto trending growth rate of 2.3 percent will not occur until 2015. That's six years from now. Let me repeat: The budget deficit for this year will total $1.2 trillion, or 8.3 percent of GDP. Question: Is the CBO report a big inaugural gift to Obama? Pat Buchanan. MR. BUCHANAN: It is, because what it says is, "The disaster did not occur on my watch; Bush is responsible." But John, you forgot to add in the $700 billion to $1 trillion package, 5 to 7 percent of GDP, which is going to be piled on top of that 8 percent. If you get up around 14, 15 percent of GDP, we haven't seen anything like that since the middle of World War II. But Barack Obama -- look, the table is being set for him. He's inherited a disaster. He's going to have some time. But he will not have the kind of time they had during the Depression, where people stood still for 14 to 25 percent unemployment for 10 years. They don't have that kind of time. But the table's set for him, John. He's going to get most of what he wants. I don't think that kind of expenditure and loose money has ever worked except for World War II in curing an economy. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Eleanor, what do you think about that? Obama is now immunized against the fault and this grim epitaph of the Bush administration? MS. CLIFT: Well, he's got his Hoover, and I think everybody is looking at how serious this situation is and they think that he can't possibly make it worse, and they're going to give him a lot of slack to try to make it better. The deficit, of course, is worrisome, but more worrisome are the unemployment figures. Unemployment has gone up over 7 percent. That's kind of a tipping point. And Obama has now tried to inject a sense of urgency into the work that Congress does. And you would think that, given those deficit figures, we wouldn't want to be adding to it. But Obama does have the consensus of economists from the right and the left that a huge stimulus package is needed. And I think he has the country pretty much behind him, not to the extent that FDR had it. FDR could write the program in the White House and just send it up to be rubber-stamped. There's going to be a lot of back and forth over this. But essentially the momentum is there for him to spend this money. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: This CBO report effectively says that Obama is secure right through the second term, the mid-point in his second term, that all of that can be blamed on Bush. Do you think that this report is jury-rigged? MS. CROWLEY: Well, a lot of it can be blamed on President Bush. And I speak as a fiscal conservative here who's been very disappointed in the fact that President Bush and the Republicans in Congress, when they did have control over it, did not rein in federal spending. Actually, they spent money like a soldier on leave in Times Square. This is a very bad fiscal legacy for President Bush to be leaving the new president. However, I do disagree with Eleanor that Obama can't make it worse. I think he can make it worse. Look, we're talking about fiscal stimulus here of a trillion dollars. It will probably end up being $1.2 (trillion), $1.3 (trillion), certainly over the trillion- dollar mark. That kind of enormous federal spending -- and Obama said this week that we're going to be looking at trillion-dollar deficits for, quote, "years to come." I do not believe that you can spend your way out of this problem. If he goes down the path of quasi-nationalizing health care, reunionizing Americans and so on, these are huge gifts to the unions. It is so much spending, John, that he could actually prolong the situation, because it's public-sector solutions that almost never work. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Mort, the blame has been pinned on Bush, right? MR. ZUCKERMAN: The political blame has been pinned on Bush. The problem is that Obama is going to inherit an economic crunch and crisis that at some point is going to be considered Obama's problem. I mean, you are going to be in a position here where, for the first two or three years of his presidency, he will be absolutely overwhelmed by what's happening in the economy. The expectations of Obama coming into office are still very, very high. Everybody thinks he can cure every problem, and on the seventh day he'll rest. But I have to tell you, this is something that's going to consume the American public. And there's a very good chance that it'll take away all the energy in his presidency for the next several years. We are looking at by far and away the worst recession since the end of World War II. And nobody knows how to cure it, because this is a sui generis kind of event. I don't know if Obama knows how to cure it or the people around him know how to cure it. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: What's the checklist of why you're saying that this is a terribly bad financial status for the country? MR. ZUCKERMAN: Well, besides the deficits, the fact is the economy is going down. We are heading into a recession that is going to be led by the consumer. Consumer spending is going to go down dramatically. Housing values are going down dramatically. The stock market has already gone down dramatically. It's going to continue to go down dramatically. We could look at -- as Eleanor said, the unemployment rate is soaring. We lost 1,100,000 jobs in the last two months. MR. BUCHANAN: (Inaudible.) MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Let him finish. MR. BUCHANAN: All right. MR. ZUCKERMAN: And we're going to be going up -- it's going to be going up over the next four or five months. We're going to see an unemployment rate that, in my judgment, is going to exceed 10 percent. MR. BUCHANAN: Well -- MR. ZUCKERMAN: And that's the pure unemployment rate. There's another -- MR. BUCHANAN: But it hit 10 percent -- MR. ZUCKERMAN: Wait a minute. Let me just finish one thing. There are two kinds of unemployment. One is somebody doesn't have a job. The other is somebody who wants to work full-time and can only work part-time. That's going to approach one in every five families in America. That has not happened since the Great Depression. And Obama is going to have to try and find a way to deal with that. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Final thought -- MR. ZUCKERMAN: And nobody knows whether there is a way to deal with it. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: What's the story on banks? MR. ZUCKERMAN: Well, the banks, frankly, have no capacity to do lending. Why? Because their own loans that they now have on their books are in such terrible shape that all the money they have, they have to keep to protect their own solvency. There's virtually no credit out there. And the confidence bubble, which has burst, is absolutely disastrous. Nobody is willing to lend money outside of their own homes. And that means this is a country and an economy that rests on credit, and that credit -- their credit is based on -- MR. BUCHANAN: It's politics, John. Look, Ronald Reagan, when he came in, he inherited 21 percent interest rates, 13 percent inflation, zero growth, unemployment at 7 percent. He put in his tax cuts, but they didn't take effect till '83. The unemployment went to 10 percent, which was the highest in the post-World War II era. He lost 26 House seats in 1982. What I'm saying is the patience of the American people that was there in the 1930s -- they stayed with FDR, strengthened him again and again and again, despite horrendous numbers -- it is not there with the American people now. They're impatient. And Barack Obama, if he doesn't deliver -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Are they fearful? Are they fearful? MR. BUCHANAN: If he doesn't deliver in two years, the Democrats will face a wipeout. MS. CLIFT: It's only -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Okay, Eleanor, let me let you in after Obama. Obama's take on the economy. President-elect Obama is on the threshold of a specific price tag of what now appears to be an $800 billion government infusion into the economy. PRESIDENT-ELECT BARACK OBAMA: (From videotape.) There is no doubt that the cost of this plan will be considerable. It will certainly add to the budget deficit in the short term. It is true that we cannot depend on government alone to create jobs or long-term growth. But at this particular moment, only government can provide the short-term boost necessary to lift us from a recession this deep and severe. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Question: Is Obama right, that only the government can bring the U.S. out of a potentially deep and severe recession? Eleanor. MS. CLIFT: Yeah. The private sector credit markets are frozen, and so government does have to step in. But I want to go back to what Pat said. He's imagining a Republican comeback in two years. The party in power generally does lose some seats, but I don't think it's going to be a wipeout, because Obama has been handed a gift in the sense that, absent this financial crisis, he would be going into the White House without any money to spend, in a financial straitjacket. Now he has basically people begging him to spend $800 billion at least. And with all due respect to Monica, there is wide agreement on Capitol Hill that a substantial package needs to be passed. MS. CROWLEY: Substantial is one thing. MS. CLIFT: The Republicans do not have an alternative. MS. CROWLEY: But I would say that when you take a look at not just Republicans and conservatives, Eleanor, but there are a lot of Blue Dog Democrats who are really concerned about blowing up this deficit; you've got some moderate-conservative Democrats who are saying, "Wait a minute. We're concerned about the size of this too." Plus you've got liberal Democrats saying, "You know what? This package doesn't go far enough." So Obama's first mission is to try to unite his own party. He's got some serious problems there; try to bring in enough tax cuts to bring enough Republicans on board to get a real consensus. When Obama says that only government can fix this, this is the well-worn path of big-government liberalism, John. Where are the tax cuts on corporations? Where's making the Bush tax cuts permanent? Where are capital gains taxes? If you get that, then you've got the private sector having some incentive here for job creation and incentive. MS. CLIFT: And you think anybody's going to blow up the (pact ?) without any one of those things? No. MS. CROWLEY: I'm saying that that is a critical component to this that is missing. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Hey, Mort, let me ask you this. This is classic Keynesian approach when you funnel government money in. The danger of that, of course, is inflation. MR. BUCHANAN: Exactly. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: So there's a limit to this Keynesian drift, correct? MR. ZUCKERMAN: Yes, that is true up to a point, John. Right now the problem is not inflation. The problem is deflation. MS. CLIFT: Deflation. MR. ZUCKERMAN: We are looking at the possibility -- and I believe it'll happen next year, or this year now -- that we will have deflation. That is a real disaster for the economy. So they have to deal with that problem. The inflation problem can be dealt with later on through monetary policy. Right now they cannot -- MR. BUCHANAN: Try stagflation. Try stagflation. MR. ZUCKERMAN: I don't believe it'll be stagflation, okay? MR. BUCHANAN: That's what Carter had -- prices surging and no growth. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Let me ask you something else, and that's about globalism. You heard me say with great discernment on this program at an earlier date that globalism is really the cause of this, that China and India cannot be taking American jobs in the fashion that they are without us paying the price. Therefore, trade negotiations have to be rewritten. The WTO has to be looked at and other trade formulations. You agree with that. You think globalism is the problem. MR. BUCHANAN: I think globalism has been a horrendous problem in deindustrializing America to where we're not creating things and making things. This stimulus package -- when you send out money and people go down to the mall, they go to the car lots, half the cars will be Asian or Japanese or European. A lot of the goods will be foreign. The money's going to be going abroad. Economic nationalism, John, in one of your rare predictions that may come true, is coming back dramatically. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Why don't we renegotiate GATT? Why don't we renegotiate the WTO? MR. BUCHANAN: What you do is walk out of the WTO. MS. CLIFT: The theoretical -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: I want to hear from him. What do you think of globalism being the cause? MR. ZUCKERMAN: That is absolutely wrong, in my judgment, okay. I think it is the way of keeping inflation down, which is when we were able to import these goods. And I would point out to you, for all that you say about the loss of manufacturing jobs, we had a very low unemployment rate just at all of those periods that you mentioned. Okay, and a lot of the cars that you're referring to are manufactured here in the United States. They are not imported. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: What's your prescription for the way out of this mess? MR. BUCHANAN: Well -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Wait a minute. MR. ZUCKERMAN: It is not going to come by redoing all of these foreign trade deals, okay? It is going to come -- and the only way it's going to come is over an extended period of time and through a huge government deficit, because monetary policy does not work when nobody is lending and nobody is borrowing. MR. BUCHANAN: John, how did Reagan do it? How did Reagan do it? MR. ZUCKERMAN: So the only thing we can do -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: So you want to keep pumping -- MR. ZUCKERMAN: Absolutely, because we stand -- MR. BUCHANAN: John, how did Reagan succeed? MR. ZUCKERMAN: -- at risk. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: How did he succeed? MR. BUCHANAN: He succeeded with the private sector, exactly what Monica said. He cut taxes across the board, 70 percent to 28 percent, 6 percent of GDP deficit. It took two years, but boom. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Have you heard that Obama is not going to totally wipe out the tax cuts of George Bush? MR. BUCHANAN: He's not going to touch -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: He's going to modify them. MR. BUCHANAN: He's not going to touch me and Mort or you. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Oh, he'll do something to satisfy the Eleanor Clifts of this world, but not much. MR. BUCHANAN: He's not going to raise taxes. MS. CLIFT: Ronald Reagan was 28 years ago. Save the theoretical discussion about GATT and globalization until Barack Obama's second term or Sarah Palin's first term. (Laughter.) MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Get the Brinks trucks out of the Treasury and pull it all up here. MR. BUCHANAN: (Laughs.) MR. ZUCKERMAN: Yeah, well. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Exit question: Will Obama be able to control runaway pork-barrel spending by the Democratic Congress any better than Bush could control runaway spending and earmarks by a Republican Congress? Yes or no. MR. BUCHANAN: Of course not. It's the biggest pig-out in human history coming up. MS. CLIFT: No, he's going to be able to control it because it's a very different political climate. MR. ZUCKERMAN: Right. MS. CLIFT: You've got the Internet and the spotlight of pay for play shining on the Congress. He's going to do a much better job. MS. CROWLEY: Wrong. Wrong. I totally disagree. (Laughs.) MS. CLIFT: Bush had a surplus to squander, which he did. MS. CROWLEY: You've got Democrats controlling the Congress and the White House. MR. BUCHANAN: The governors and mayors. (Laughs.) MS. CROWLEY: The train wreck has already begun. They're already at the trough. It's only going to get worse. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: How can he do it? MR. ZUCKERMAN: Well, it's all a question of definition, John. You have to distinguish between what is in the national interest, which is what every congressman will say, and what is pork. You just have the wrong definition, John. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Why don't we give Obama the line-item veto? Wouldn't that help? MR. ZUCKERMAN: Absolutely. MS. CLIFT: It's unconstitutional. (Laughs.) MR. ZUCKERMAN: The line-item -- MR. BUCHANAN: It might be unconstitutional, yeah. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: What do you mean, unconstitutional? MR. BUCHANAN: They knocked one of them out. MS. CLIFT: That's what the Supreme Court said. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: We can't get our famous lawyers in Washington to work around that? MR. BUCHANAN: You can't take a piece of legislation -- you can't take a piece of legislation and draw a line through it when they send it down. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: We've had this conversation on this show many times. There are ways to implement a line-item veto -- MR. BUCHANAN: Well, look, you think he's going to -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: -- that's not unconstitutional. MR. BUCHANAN: This is going to be 100,000 pages. It's going through it line by line? MR. ZUCKERMAN: Somebody would, and you know it. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Issue Two: Gaza Burning. TZIPI LIVNI (Israeli foreign minister): (From videotape.) When Israel is being targeted, Israel is going to retaliate. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Israel's retaliation into Palestinian Gaza is now two weeks old. Its penetration is by land, sea and air. The campaign comes just after a six-month cease-fire with Hamas expires. Hamas has fired hundreds of rockets into southern Israel in the last three weeks, where 500,000 Israelis are within range. Hamas's exiled leader, Khalid Meshaal, lives in Damascus, Syria. He remains defiant. "You need to know that doom will await you and you will be killed, injured or captured." The human toll now stands at over 700 Palestinians dead and 3,000 wounded, all in Gaza. Four Israeli citizens have been killed in Israel and six Israeli soldiers killed in Gaza. The international response to Israel's retaliation has been blistering. The Vatican described Gaza in these words. Quote: "More and more, Gaza resembles a big concentration camp," unquote. Israel described the Vatican comment as, quote, "Hamas propaganda." Pope Benedict XVI has been negotiating a trip to Israel for this May. That trip may now be on the back burner. Question: Is the Vatican description of Gaza as a concentration camp basically true, or is the Israeli government justified in describing the Vatican description as, quote-unquote, "Hamas propaganda"? Mort Zuckerman. MR. ZUCKERMAN: Well, it certainly isn't a concentration camp. The Israelis left Gaza with considerable force -- that is, force against their own people. They turned over all of Gaza in 2005 to the Palestinians. But every day since then, the Palestinians have rained rockets on the Israeli communities, rockets with increasingly greater range, greater lethality and greater accuracy. Right now a million people, not 500,000, are within range. And Tel Aviv was just about a year away before they developed that capacity. Israel simply could not tolerate that. And since, when the Palestinians were there, they have -- every single one of those rockets or missiles was directed against civilians. Not a single military target was involved. Israel had no choice but to respond. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Here's a question. What is the Israeli action suggesting, telling Obama? Obama. MR. BUCHANAN: That's to me? MR. MCLAUGHLIN: That's to you. MR. BUCHANAN: What the Israelis are doing is they're presenting Obama with a fait accompli. They're going to try to take down Hamas and try to stop these rockets. I don't think they're going to succeed. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: No, the message is something different. Who can tell me what the message is? MR. BUCHANAN: Well, let me talk about the concentration camp. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Quickly. MR. BUCHANAN: I think it is a valid comparison. When you shut up a million and a half people, can't get in or out, cut off their food, fuel, electricity, the sewage is running on the streets -- about 50 percent of the kids have dysentery -- that's a concentration camp like the Boer camps in South Africa. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: I'm more concerned about something beyond where we are now. I want to know what message he's sending -- Israel is sending, not only to Obama, but to the world. What is it saying? MS. CROWLEY: The message is -- and it was reported this week by the British Guardian newspaper that team Obama would like to begin low-level contacts with Hamas, diplomatic negotiations -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: And with whom else? And with whom else? MR. BUCHANAN: Hezbollah. MS. CLIFT: Iran. MS. CROWLEY: Possibly with Iran, which is the proxy -- Hamas is the proxy state of the Iranians. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Now, what is Israel signaling by this -- MS. CROWLEY: Israel moved now because they are petrified that Barack Obama is not going to have the same kind of support for Israel, under attack by these Islamic jihadists, that President Bush has had. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: So it's signaling -- MS. CROWLEY: So it's signaling to Obama that "We Israelis are willing to move without the United States, if necessary, to protect our state." MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Is Israel also signaling that it's capable of preemptive self-defense in order to protect -- MR. ZUCKERMAN: They are -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: -- its freedom? MR. ZUCKERMAN: They are signaling -- MS. CLIFT: Well -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Is it also saying to Obama, "If you are going to have dealings with Iran and you ignore the fact that they're developing a nuclear bomb," if that is the conclusion -- my own thoughts are not in that direction -- but if they are, that Israel will strike Iran? MR. ZUCKERMAN: No, I don't think -- that's a separate issue here. You have a situation now in which the vast bulk of the Israeli citizens have been under attack for three years without any serious response. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: I understand that. MR. ZUCKERMAN: Iran is wholly different. Right now Hamas -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: But it is a large message that is being sent to everyone, is it not? MR. ZUCKERMAN: Well, absolutely. You are saying basically that Israel is trying to build up its deterrence after Hezbollah and Lebanon a few years ago, and that is also true. MR. BUCHANAN: Israel -- MR. ZUCKERMAN: But let me just say this. MS. CLIFT: Israel's goal is to eradicate Hamas and stop the rocket attacks. I agree with Pat; they're not going to accomplish either of those, and they're going to make it more difficult for Obama to maneuver once he takes office. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Yeah. MS. CLIFT: But he has pledged greater diplomatic involvement. And you cannot solve this crisis in the Middle East without engaging the people who are involved, which is Syria, Iran and Hamas. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: And oddly enough, oddly enough, Ehud -- MR. ZUCKERMAN: Olmert. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Huh? MR. ZUCKERMAN: Ehud Olmert has been engaging -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Ehud Olmert seems to share your view. MR. ZUCKERMAN: Right. He has been trying to negotiate with the Syrians, with the Palestinians, on a two-state solution. One of the things that's going to come out of this thing -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: But he also said -- MR. ZUCKERMAN: Let me just say -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: -- the military return is limited at best. Issue Three: Burris and Blago. ROLAND BURRIS (Illinois U.S. Senate appointee): (From videotape.) As a former attorney general of my state, I have no knowledge where a secretary of state has veto power over a governor's carrying out his constitutional duties. I'm qualified. I was elected four times in my state. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Roland Burris, former multi-term attorney general of Illinois, was turned away from the U.S. Senate chamber this week when he went there to assume his seat as junior senator from Illinois, so designated by Governor Rod Blagojevich to fill the empty Senate seat vacated by former Senator Barack Obama, now U.S. president-elect. Blagojevich is now charged with a complaint, not an indictment, of corruption and abuse of power brought by U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald. So the ongoing contretemps originates with the Fitzgerald-Blagojevich faceoff, not with Senator Burris. Burris has been a distinguished public servant for decades, with what has been described as a spotless reputation. And he's a loyal Democrat. Burris does not appear unnerved by the continuing turmoil, even after being stiffed by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and the Senate sergeant at arms or his proxy. Here's Burris reading a statement immediately after the Senate door was equivalently slammed in his face. MR. BURRIS: (From videotape.) My name is Roland Burris, the junior senator from the state of Illinois. I presented my credentials to the secretary of the Senate and advised that my credentials were not in order; I would not be accepted and I will not be seated and I will not be permitted on the floor. And therefore, I am not seeking to have any type of confrontation. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: General Burris then added that he was turning the matter over to his lawyers. The following day, Senator Reid danced away from his earlier disapproval of Burris. Reid's reasons are open to interpretation, but one of which is said to include his personal baggage. On Friday afternoon, the Illinois Supreme Court confirmed Burris's view. "The Illinois secretary of state has no constitutional veto power, absent an election, over an Illinois governor's appointment of a senator to fill a vacant seat." Question: Was it politically unwise for Obama to have opposed Blagojevich's appointment of Burris? I ask you, Pat Buchanan. MR. BUCHANAN: Yes, it was. And what the Obama -- MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Why did he do it? MR. BUCHANAN: He did it to get in line with Harry Reid and the Senate Democrats. He said, "I agree with them." MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Did he have his own candidate? MR. BUCHANAN: Well, listen -- look, there's a -- look, Rahm Emanuel apparently -- and we don't know for sure -- called the governor and said, "We've got four candidates" after Ms. Jarrett dropped out. Not one of them was African-American. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Was Valerie Jarrett the first candidate? MR. BUCHANAN: Valerie Jarrett was the first one, apparently, that Rahm wanted in there. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Right. MR. BUCHANAN: Exactly. And also Harry Reid allegedly -- he denies it -- called Blagojevich on December 3rd and said, "There's three candidates we don't want." Two of them were African-American congressmen; the other, the African-American State Senate president. But Obama, John, got well on this. As soon as this thing hit on Wednesday, he cut Reid dead. He said, "He's a fine man, and if everything goes right and it looks like it, I'd be happy to work with Mr. Burris." MR. MCLAUGHLIN: So he successfully again worked both sides of the street. MR. BUCHANAN: He moved away from an untenable position. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: And no one saw him cross the street. (Laughter.) MS. CLIFT: Yeah. He encouraged the Senate Democrats to accept Mr. Burris, which was the right thing to do. Constitutionally he belongs there. And for the racial issue, I think there is this notion that a black candidate can't win statewide in Illinois. But Barack Obama has won there and so did Carol Moseley Braun. And we've had very few African-Americans in the Senate. Two of them have been from Illinois. MR. BUCHANAN: But you don't deny them the seat that's theirs for that reason. MS. CLIFT: I don't think it's their seat. MR. BUCHANAN: You don't think it's his seat? MS. CLIFT: I think it's Roland Burris's. It's not necessarily an African-American seat is what I said. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: Okay. Rush to the rescue. REP. BOBBY RUSH (D-IL): (From videotape.) Why, in the U.S. Senate, there are no African-Americans. There are two Asians, three Latinos, 11 women, but no African-Americans. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: What about that? This is the racial card. MS. CROWLEY: That was Bobby Rush, former Black Panther, playing the race card. He was pretty much the only one playing the race card, although, unless Pat's correct and the reporting on the Reid phone call is correct, it was a little bit of a racial situation that blew up here. And I'm surprised that it took Obama frankly so long to put the whole kibosh on this. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: It is a political plus for Obama to talk to Iran. True or false? MR. BUCHANAN: Good policy, bad politics. MS. CLIFT: Plus. MS. CROWLEY: False. MR. ZUCKERMAN: Without the right conditions, bad policy, bad politics. MR. MCLAUGHLIN: The answer is it would be a plus. Bye-bye. END.

Big Jon Atkinson is a bad man. Not in the demented, hockey mask, and chainsaw kind of way. No, Mr. Atkinson is bad in a seriously mean old, low-down and nasty, bottle-neck slide guitar blues type of way. Oh sure, he appears innocent enough, with his harp rack and fistful of capos. But when he sits down to play, you'd better keep your hands up and your elbows in because he's taking you with him when he goes. Don't let the lumberjack shirt and cuffed jeans fool you; he'll come right at your head with a few quick slide riffs and then break you down with sustained, well-placed body blows. This will be your only warning. So, put in your mouthpiece and make a few plans on your way to the canvas; you're about to take a dive, courtesy of Big Jon Atkinson.
Atkinson says he's packed a lot of living into a very short span of time but honestly believes it's been music that has "kept me alive and pushing forward." Jon recalls, "From the time I was born I was always heavy into music no matter what it was. My whole family at some point in their lives played music, from banjo to saxophone and drums. My father was into blues and I got my first guitar at age 14. I quickly dove deep into the instrument and loved it."
Jon remembers exactly when the blues called his name. "The first time the music really got me, I was listening to Freddie King and B.B. one day," he says. "I stumbled into a record store and pick out three CDs from the blues pile. I was lucky enough to get Lightnin' Hopkins, Howlin' Wolf, the Sun Years, and Little Walter's Hate to See You Go.
I remember playing Little Walter first and thinking, 'Wow, this is weird music!'" You can probably hear Jon laughing when he adds, "There was so much going on in the songs that I think it scared me a little bit. Then I put in the Wolf stuff and heard Willie Johnson. That was it for me. Once I heard that tone and heard how dramatic the music was, I was hooked." Jon says he immediately "went home and for months and months learned all three of those CDs."
Time well spent.
In a few short years Atkinson has become a very well-rounded and versatile bluesman. Others have taken notice. "People always ask me how or why I play multiple instruments and I simply say that I do it because I needed to," Jon says. "I started playing harmonica two years ago because at the time nobody in Knoxville could play harp the way I heard it in my head or on the records. It was much easier for me to teach a guitarist how to play the way I wanted than the harmonica. So I learned it and I'm still very much learning it. It's the same for the drums. I would just fiddle with them here and there, but out of nowhere I just started doing them on gigs. I listen to this music so much every single day that it is just so natural for someone who does this [plays music] to have a feel and a head start on all the instruments. When I committed to play harp, I could already hum you every Little Walter and Big Walter solo on any tune, so it was just putting it to the actual instrument."
Turns out not everything that happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Jon fell in with a couple of seasoned musicians that had a profound impact on both his playing and his music. One of those bandmates was a man named Junior Brantley. "Well, I met Junior when I was about 18 or so," Jon remembers. "I was going down all the wrong paths and making all the wrong choices as a young man but Junior helped me a lot with singing and the traditional blues. I used to play with him all the time and he would always give me great advice. He helped me in any way he could. Al Ek did the same for me. They would bust my ass every night and they really were a huge part in how I sound today. I never used to sing or open my mouth on stage and Junior would tell me that I could do it and that I had what it took. Al Ek used to always tell me, too, that I wouldn't get any gigs just playing guitar, you had to sing and front a band. He was right. Both of those guys were a God-send to me. We used to play at the Sand Dollar every week and those were some of my learning grounds. It molded my mind into the way it is now. I am very lucky to have met those guys and I owe them a lot."
You mentioned the early Howlin' Wolf stuff that featured Willie Johnson. What were your thoughts about the other long-time Wolf sideman, guitarist Hubert Sumlin? "As far as Willie and Hubert, they were huge to me." Atkinson admits. "I was always really into Wolf but nobody sang or did any of his songs. That's why I started singing in some fashion because then I could do these songs. But the first time I heard Willie it blew my mind… so raw and so real. There's nothing like it, besides Pat Hare. [Author's note: similarities and comparisons in guitarists Willie Johnson, Pat Hare, and Hubert Sumlin, other than the obvious Wolf connection probably arise from the fact that at one point Pat Hare was a guitarist with James Cotton. Having grown up with Cotton, one of Hubert's very first playing jobs would be touring with Cotton and Hare through Arkansas and Mississippi. In one of a hundred small roadhouse venues during that period, the Wolf came out to see the Cotton band and when Hubert eventually left Cotton, it would be to play guitar for Howlin' Wolf.] Hubert was huge, too. He taught me to turn your amp up and play soft, real soft until you want it to be heard then you pop through. He was a master at dynamic playing and he had such a wonderful and unique style."
Talk a little about putting together your band, Big Jon and the Nationals.
"Well the band has just been what I call my group where ever I end up," says Jon. "I mean it is a simple name and quite a simple band. We play everything from J.B. Hutto to Robert Nighthawk to Junior Parker and Muddy Waters. Also I have plenty of retro era-sounding originals, too, that we play. The band is great and there is always something new happening, either recording or gigs or whatever."
Although still relatively new to Southern California via Tennessee, Big Jon has definitely made some new friends… new and hugely talented friends. "Well the first experience I had was playing with Mark Mumea and the Silver Kings." It brings up good memories for Jon: "That was a great chapter for me as it got me thinking the old way again, as if I had gotten off track at some point. Everyone needs a little push sometimes. Then, Nathan James and I started talking on Facebook and he invited me to sit in with him. I went down and met the guys and played with him and Marty Dodson and Troy Sandow, who now are great friends." And as if that wasn't enough, "That day I got to play with James Harman.
Then Karl (Cabbage) from Red Lotus (Red Lotus Review) and I did some gigs together when I moved from San Pedro to San Diego. All these guys were so good to me and still are to this day. They have helped me more than anyone in the world. I am a blessed man to have run into these cats. Nathan has really done a lot for me, from my CD to gigs. He is a great man."
Since you mentioned it, let's talk a little about your CD and working with Nathan James and recording at Sacred Cat Studio's. "The record Boogie with You Baby was a pretty incredible thing." Jon says, "We basically decided to record it in three back-to-back days at Nathan's in Oceanside. Raw as you could get it. Half the songs were just ideas from Nathan and we did them on the spot, never having played them before. And the originals on the record were written on the spot, also. It was a blast and we recorded on tape and did the whole thing the right way. Just like the old days. The result is an intense, fat-sounding blues record. There needs to be more records made like this nowadays. Fred Kaplan played some great piano on the record and Troy Sandow played great bass and played harmonica on a number of the songs. Marty Dodson played great drums with lots of feeling and emotion. And Nathan played incredible guitar on the whole thing. I really could not have made a bad record if I tried."
I've seen you play a number of times in the last year, but one show in Carlsbad recently just blew me away. It was you, Nathan, Marty Dodson, and the incredible Kim Wilson. How did that relationship come to be? "I got involved with Kim at a venue that Cadillac Zack had me play on. I was backing up young harp master Jacob Huffman, who now plays with the 44s. Halfway through the show I noticed Kim and he was watching me play. I didn't even know he was on the gig. Anyway, before Kim got up to play he asked me if I wanted to stay on stage with him. I, of course, said yes! After the gig we talked for a bit and became fast friends. Now we are good friends and we play, record, and trade amplifiers all the time. He is a great guy and the man has given me more advice and opportunities than anyone. Not to mention I get to steal some of his harp chops every time I see him." [laughing]
Beside his proclivity for kleptomania (I warned you he was bad) Big Jon's talents are ever expanding and they appear now to include concert and event promotion. But he emphasizes, "As far as promoting goes, I would say I am just trying to get the music out there. San Diego has very, very few shows where five or ten of the best blues players get into the same room and play. I am trying to put together more big events down here for the blues. On January 10th I am putting on a huge show at Proud Mary's, this great Southern-style joint that is in the old Ramada Inn. I am going to try and slowly build this place for big events. The January show will have Kim Wilson, James Harman, Al Blake, Billy Watson, Troy Sandow, Bubba McCoy, Bob Corritore and myself. It is going to be a great show."
Not that you need anything more to do… what does the future have in store for Big Jon Atkinson? "Next for me is just to keep doing what I'm doing. I have another record coming out next year that is going to be huge. I am taking my time with it and really getting what I want out of the sound. Kim and I hope to open a cool music shop, hopefully, and I want to branch out and get to play with some more people in the area that I have yet to play with."
Mark your calendars and get your tickets early for Big Jon's Harmonica Blues Blast and jump start your 2015. It's set for Saturday, January 10th at Proud Mary's in San Diego and features some of the nation's most incredible harp players as well as San Diego's own Nathan James and the Rhythm Scratchers. It is guaranteed to be an event you won't soon forget.

text: When it comes to sales compensation, managers realize two things early on. The first thing is that paying salespeople accurately, and on time, is vitally important. The second, realized not long after the first, is that they're going to need to change their sales compensation programs, sooner or later. And that's almost always sooner, given how quickly the markets require companies to adapt and the sales jobs approach needs to change accordingly.

Another Unfunded Mandate That Could Set Back Health Care
February 24, 2015
The American medical community will have a new burden, come October 2015. Doctors have billed their patients using ICD-9 codes since the 1980s but if Congress fails to act, a new and vastly more complicated system will replace the ICD-9. NCPA senior fellow John R. Graham describes the new ICD-10 as easily ridiculed.
The change will be a boon for healthcare IT companies that stand to profit from the new system. However, the shift will place a heavier burden on solo practitioners and other small, local health providers. While a Government Accountability Office (GAO) report recommends moving forward with the transition, there are dissenting opinions.
- Nearly three-quarters of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' stakeholders contacted by GAO expressed serious concerns about the lack of adequate training and testing.
- One-fourth of physician practices indicate they are not prepared for the transition.
The impact of such a transition is likely to fall disproportionately on rural and elderly populations. Doctors will spend more time on coding and less time practicing medicine. Doctors treating Medicaid patients may also lose reimbursements until their state governments can adjust to the ICD-10 system.
Congress could avoid the financial losses that will follow from the required investment in new software programs. Additionally, imposing yet another unfunded mandate on the medical community will result in prolonged confusion as state governments and physician practices divide their time between catching up to a more complex coding system and treating patients.

The food at the Birdcage is of a decent quality. Sitting outside next to Andrews Avenue, smelling the exhaust and listening to the loud road noises is not relaxing. The servings are large, however the fries were too salty to eat. When the waitress was told about this, she did absolutely NOTHING. I ate the sandwich and left the fries. No questions were asked. At 11 bucks for a chicken sandwich with inedible fries, it a bit much even for South Florida.

Take a look at these credit rating record images:
Supermassive Black Opening Sagittarius A * (NASA, Chandra, 02/08/12)
< img alt=" credit rating record" src=" https://www.credit-report-online.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/6848492783_ca58cef99e.jpg" size=" 400"/ > Image by NASA's Marshall Area Flight Center
This photo from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory shows the facility of our Galaxy, with a supermassive great void called Sagittarius A * (Sgr A * for brief) in the facility. Using periodic observations over a number of years, Chandra has detected X-ray flares about daily from Sgr A *. The flares have actually additionally been seen in infrared data from ESO's Large Telescope in Chile.
A brand-new research study offers a possible explanation for the strange flares. The idea is that there is a cloud around Sgr A * having hundreds of trillions of planets and comets, which have actually been stripped from their parent celebrities. The panel on the left is a picture containing almost a million secs of Chandra observing of the region around the great void, with red representing low-energy X-rays, eco-friendly as medium-energy X-rays, as well as blue being the highest possible.
A planet that undergoes a close experience with an additional object, such as a star or planet, can be thrown right into an orbit goinged towards Sgr A *, as seen in a collection of artist's illustrations starting with the top-right panel. If the planet passes within regarding 100 million miles of the great void, about the distance between the Planet as well as the Sun, it would certainly be torn right into items by the tidal forces from the great void (middle-right panel).
These pieces would then be evaporated by friction as they pass through the hot, slim gas flowing onto Sgr A *, just like a meteor heating up and glowing as it fails Earth's environment. A flare is created (bottom-right panel) and at some point the remains of the planet are ingested by the black hole.
Another planetary system example for this kind of occasion has recently been reported. About when every three days a comet is destroyed when it flies right into the warm ambience of the Sun. So, regardless of the significant differences in the 2 environments, the destruction price of comets as well as asteroids by the Sunlight and Sgr A * may be similar.
Very long monitorings of Sgr A * will certainly be made with Chandra later on in 2012 that will offer important new details concerning the regularity and also brightness of flares and need to assist to test the version recommended right here to discuss them. This job has the possible to understand the capability of asteroids and also worlds to form in the rough setting of Sgr A *.

My shins & ankles got a numb, pins & needles sensation when I was on Flagyl. It went away after I stopped the med.
Speaking of Flagyl, everyone knows you can't drink on it, right? Not that most people who are taking it feel like drinking but when it was first prescribed to me it was HERE on this forum that I learned that, NOT from my dumb ass dr. He also had me on it for about 5 weeks when it was originally at that point supposed to be 2 - I was feeling better and who's to say I wouldn't have wanted to have a beer or glass of wine with dinner at that point? THANK YOU healing well forum for letting me know what would have been the horrid consequences! :)
I am wondering if you found out what was causing the numbness? I just realized my big toe is numb today. I saw my doctor before that and did not notice it until later. My b12 was on the low end but within limits (202) I get it tested again in one month too.

Maine: Committee Passes Bill to Maintain Insurance Premium Subsidies Regardless of King v. Burwell Outcome
The Maine Joint Standing Committee on Insurance and Financial Services unanimously voted in favor of a bill that would protect the health insurance premium subsidies provided under the ACA, regardless of the outcome of King v. Burwell, the Supreme Court case that could potentially ban subsidies for consumers enrolled in insurance through the Federally-facilitated Marketplace. The bill would create a supported State-based Marketplace, in which Maine would run its Marketplace but utilize federal eligibility and enrollment services. According to the Portland Press Herald, the bill is likely to pass through the legislature, but it is unclear if Governor Paul LePage (R) will sign the bill into law.
New Study Reveals High Stakes for Non-Expansion States in King v. Burwell
The twenty states that have chosen both to rely on the Federally-facilitated Marketplace and not to expand Medicaid are at risk of losing net $721 billion of federal spending between 2016 and 2025 if the Supreme Court finds in favor of the plaintiffs in King v. Burwell, according to a new report by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Urban Institute. The report estimates that states that have elected not to expand Medicaid are already losing $483 billion in federal spending over the next ten years. If King v. Burwell is found for the plaintiffs and these states do not establish a state-based Marketplace, the residents of those states are at risk of losing an additional $238 billion in financial assistance during that same timeframe. This sceniario would also result in an estimated 9.8 million additional uninsured individuals in 2016.

Homes evacuated in Ballygowan security alert
Homes were evacuated in Ballygowan overnight due to a security alert.
Shortly after midnight, police were called to deal with a suspicious object in the Meadow Road area.
Following examination by Army technical officers, the device was declared an elaborate hoax.
Residents were only allowed to return to their homes around 6.30am on Friday morning.
Superintendent Brian Kee said: "I would like to thank the public for their co-operation during this operation. I would appeal to anyone who has any information about this incident to contact Detectives in Bangor on the non-emergency number 101.
"Or, if someone would prefer to provide information without giving their details they can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers and speak to them anonymously on 0800 555 111."
