MUMBAI: Big 92.7 FM Hyderabad today announced the inception of the 'Big ugadi music awards' acknowledging excellence in Tollywood music.
Starting this year, the 'Big ugadi music awards' will be given on 27 March and would be given every year on Ugadi day.
Apart from using radio as a medium to campaign for the awards, Big 92.7 FM has also planned for an on-ground initiative starting next week.
A Big 92.7 FM bus having an electronic voting machine will be touted all over Hyderabad. Listeners will be encouraged to vote for their favourite musicians through this initiative. They can also vote for their choice by sending SMS.
According to Big 92.7 FM, since it's a listener's choice awards, the award ceremony will not be a grand gala happening. Instead, two lucky listeners along with a celebrity and an RJ would go to each winner's place in a Mercedes and the red carpet will be rolled there. There are 12 awards in total, with 6 being for music directors and 6 for singers.
Zee Telugu, the radio's station broadcast partner, will telecast the music awards on Ugadi.

Eotaxin and eosinophil recruitment: implications for human disease
Trends in Molecular Medicine, Volume 6, Issue 1, 1 January 2000, Pages 20-27
Sara M. Rankin, Dolores M. Conroy and Timothy J. Williams
AbstractEosinophils have been implicated in a broad range of diseases, notably allergic conditions (for example, asthma, rhinitis and atopic dermatitis) and other inflammatory disorders (for example, inflammatory bowel disease, eosinophilic gastroenteritis and pneumonia). These disease states are characterized by an accumulation of eosinophils in tissues. Severe tissue damage ensues as eosinophils release their highly cytotoxic granular proteins. Defining the mechanisms that control recruitment of eosinophils to tissues is fundamental to understanding these disease processes and provides targets for novel drug therapy. An important discovery in this context was the identification of an eosinophil-specific chemoattractant, eotaxin. Over the past six years there has been intensive investigation into the biological effects of eotaxin and its role in specific disease processes and this is the subject of this review.

Paul S Foster, Simon P Hogan, Ming Yang, Joerg Mattes, Ian G Young, Klaus I Matthaei, Rakesh K Kumar, Surendran Mahalingam and Dianne C Webb
AbstractExtensive clinical investigations have implicated eosinophils in the pathogenesis of asthma. In a recent clinical trial, humanized monoclonal antibody to interleukin (IL)-5 significantly limited eosinophil migration to the lung. However, treatment did not affect the development of the late-phase response or airways hyperresponsiveness in experimental asthma. Although IL-5 is a key regulator of eosinophilia and attenuation of its actions without signs of clinical improvement raises questions about the contribution of these cells to disease, further studies are warranted to define the effects of anti-IL-5 in the processes that lead to chronic asthma. Furthermore, eosinophil accumulation into allergic tissues should not be viewed as a process that is exclusively regulated by IL-5 but one in which IL-5 greatly contributes. Indeed, data on anti-IL-5 treatments (human and animal models) are confounded by the failure of this approach to completely resolve tissue eosinophilia and the belief that IL-5 alone is the critical molecular switch for eosinophil development and migration. The contribution of these IL-5-independent pathways should be considered when assessing the role of eosinophils in disease processes.

Eosinophils and allergic airway disease: there is more to the story
Trends in Immunology, Volume 31, Issue 1, 1 January 2010, Pages 39-44
Elizabeth R. Walsh and Avery August
AbstractThe eosinophil has been perceived as a terminal effector cell in allergic airway diseases. However, recent work has shown that this multifunctional cell could be more involved in the initial stages of allergic disease development than was previously thought, particularly with regard to the ability of the eosinophil to modulate T-cell responses. In this review, we discuss recent advances that suggest that eosinophils can present antigen to naïve as well as to antigen-experienced T cells, induce T helper 2 cell development, cytokine production or both, and affect T-cell migration to sites of inflammation. These findings are changing the way that eosinophil function in disease is perceived, and represent a shift in the dogma of allergic disease development.

The OXE receptor: a new therapeutic approach for asthma?
The eicosanoid 5-oxo-6E,8Z,11Z,14Z-eicosatetraenoic acid (5-oxo-ETE) has recently been identified as the ligand for the oxoeicosanoid (OXE) receptor. In vitro and in vivo studies have suggested that 5-oxo-ETE has a role in the asthmatic inflammatory response and it has been shown to stimulate eosinophil migration to the airways. New data suggest that eosinophils have an important role in the pathogenesis of asthma, being required for mucus accumulation, airway hyperresponsiveness and remodelling of the airways. However, there are several mediators that can stimulate the recruitment of eosinophils to the airways and the development of antagonists against the OXE receptor is required to evaluate the potential of the OXE receptor as a new therapeutic approach for asthma.

Discover Ministry Briefing! --> The Best Way To Keep "In The Know"!
What the heck is an evangelical? It seems that everyone has put a different meaning on the word… and now no one is quite sure what it means…
Matt Steen and I talk about this from an article by Terry Mattingly:
List America's prominent evangelicals and the Rev. Rick Warren remains near the top, right up there with the Rev. Brian McLaren, Bishop T.D. Jakes, Jim Wallis, the Rev. Tim Keller and others.
Evangelicals, of course, have been known to argue about who belongs on that list. In recent years, it has become increasingly obvious that the experts are struggling to decide who is and who is not an evangelical in the first place.
"I know what the word 'evangelical' is supposed to mean," said Warren, 58, leader of the 20,000-member Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, Calif., with its many branches and ministries. "I mean, I know what the word 'evangelical' used to mean."
The problem, he said, is that many Americans no longer link "evangelical" with a set of traditional doctrines, such as evangelizing the lost, defending biblical authority, helping the needy and proclaiming that salvation is found through faith in Jesus Christ alone.

What do YOU think? Leave a text or video comment here…
I like the word Evangelical. I think its traditional meaning still holds up: someone who is living a lifestyle of evangelism based off of the traditional protestant worldview.
Words get polluted when they are misused especially in the church. Everyone who attends church thinks they are a Christian. Everyone who does something "good" thinks they are being missional. We need to define our terms so our people don't allow them to lose their distinctions.
I wish that Todd would not limit his repertoire of Evangelicals to his favorites. Then maybe we could get a clearer perspective of the definition. Where is the Jesuit or Lutheran Evangelical in his portfolio of Religious giants? My father came from Pomerania, he was an evangelical, but his beliefs and church's action don't come into Todd's radar.
You know what they say about those Pomeranians, gotta train 'em when they are young or they'll never stop barking.
Evangelical has a biblical root…preaching, witnessing to and living the good news. It has historical roots in Reformation, Lutheran, Zwinglian,and Calvinist. It found vibrant Expression in the Great Awakening in America and in Wesleyan movement. Much of current evangelicalism was defined but early 20th century fundamentalism, end time views and now the political religious right. Every generation needs to express evangelically in word and deed the good news of Gods love, mercy and grace. That will not best be done in rigid doctrinal battles or political gamesmanship.
Maybe the world has trouble understanding who we are (and we have trouble knowing who we are) because we spend our time debating terminology instead of living the love that Jesus said would define us…John 13:35. Just a thought…
If Tim Keller and Brian McLauren are both evangelicals, then theologically the word has no meaning.

It was a Sunday evening when I got a panicked call from Elisabeth. She was very upset and told me that her computer had a virus and broke down. "What can I do?" "Don't panic," I said. "Just reset it and re-install it from your backup." "Backup?" she said. "What is backup?" I explained it, told her how important it was to always backup the computer, and then I helped her get rid of the virus and warned her to always back up her files.
Two months later, another panicked call from Elisabeth. A power outbreak had destroyed her computer and… you guessed it… she didn't have a backup and this time that was really bad news for her.

Want to know the last time the best team in any given sport came from Cleveland? 1948. The '48 Indians were clearly the best team in baseball and proved it throughout the regular season, the one-game playoff against the Red Sox and the World Series against the Boston Braves.
Since then? Nada. The 1975-76 Cavaliers might have been the best team in the NBA, but they had only the third-best record and never got a chance to compete for the Championship at full strength. The 1980 Browns were a one-year wonder with a bad defense. The '86 and '87 Browns might have been better than the Denver teams that conquered them in the AFC title games- but they weren't as good as the top NFC teams of the era. The Lenny Wilkins-era Cavaliers were Chicago's bridesmaid. The 1995 Indians were too young, too inexperienced and didn't have the frontline pitching to match up with the Braves. The '97 Tribe didn't have the closer to finish the deal. The '07 Tribe was inferior to the Red Sox. And last year's Cavaliers, despite their 66-16 record, were only the third-best team in the NBA, behind Los Angeles and Orlando.
Not even the 1964 Browns, our last Champion, were the best team in the NFL. They were simply the best on the one day they had to be.
But here in 2010, our day has arrived. The Cleveland Cavaliers are the best team in the NBA- period. They have the best player in the game, a veteran-tough supporting cast and a deep bench. They are healthy at the right time and have home-court advantage throughout the Playoffs. This is, quite simply, the best chance this town has had since '64 to cop a Championship. And if we don't get it done this year, well… we may never get it done.
Let the NBA Playoffs, this two-month journey, commence. And we'll get it started with a preview of all eight first-round series, East and West.
#1 Cleveland Cavaliers (61-21)
#8 Chicago Bulls (41-41)
Season Series: Tied, 2-2
Memorable Past Series- 1992 Eastern Conference Finals: The local truism is that the Lenny Wilkins-era Cavaliers were really better than Chicago- the Bulls just had Michael Jordan. That might have been true in 1988 and '89. It was a dead letter by 1992, though, when the teams met for the right to go to the NBA Finals. By then Chicago was better, and they showed it in a brawny six-game conquest of the Cavaliers. Cleveland got in a couple of shots, though: a stunning 107-81 Chicago Stadium rout in Game 2, and a Game 4 win punctuated by Danny Ferry throwing a wild haymaker at His Airness Himself.
Capsule: First things first- the Bulls are not the demoralized Pistons team that Cleveland took to the woodshed in last season's first round. Chicago comes into this series on a roll, winners of ten of its last fourteen games. It's a young team built around the star power and Derrick Rose and the grit of Joakim Noah- and they don't particularly care for the Cavaliers. The Bulls will play this series with a great deal of energy and passion.
Now here's the cold water for Chicago. The Bulls have a hard time scoring, averaging just 97.5 points per game during the regular season. There is very little in the way of a consistent outside shooting or low-post threat. Other than Flip Murray and Brad Miller there is sparse depth off the bench. With Ben Gordon in Detroit and John Salmons in Milwaukee this is a less explosive, less versatile Bulls team than the one we saw take Boston to a seventh game last season.
Cleveland's biggest problem in this series may be conditioning. The team's stars didn't played much over the last week of the season- Shaquille O'Neal didn't play at all after late February- while the Bulls have been essentially playing Playoff basketball for the last month. Don't be surprised to see the Cavaliers jump out to a big lead with lots of energy in Game One- then crash. Actually, I think the first game is going to be very, very tough. But if Cleveland wins that one, the skids will be greased. Chicago will be game, but Michael and Scottie can't help them now.
Prediction: Cavaliers in five.
#4 Boston Celtics (50-32)
#5 Miami Heat (47-35)
Season Series:
Memorable Past Series- First meeting in the Playoffs
Capsule: Miami blazed to a 23-8 finish in the regular season while Boston went a supremely mediocre 27-27 since Christmas. The Celtics look old, tired and vulnerable against just about everyone, but Miami remains a bit of a mystery- can anyone other than Dwayne Wade do anything in this series? Michael Beasley needs to score the basketball for the Heat to beat Boston, but he only has three 20-plus point games since February 20th. There's still enough gas in the Celtics jalopy to cough them through this round. But they're in major trouble in Round Two.
Prediction: Celtics in six.
#2 Orlando Magic (59-23)
#7 Charlotte Bobcats (44-38)
Season Series: Magic lead, 3-1
Memorable Past Series- 2002 Eastern Conference First Round: The last postseason run for the old Charlotte Hornets began with first-round match-up against Orlando. The Magicians had the home-court advantage, but they also had Tracy McGrady as their go-to guy- and Charlotte had Baron Davis. Series over. Baron was baronial indeed, averaging 25.0 points, 9.3 assists and 9.0 rebounds in the four-game series and rolling up back-to-back triple-doubles as the Hornets closed it out in Charlotte. The Hornets then lost to New Jersey in the second round and fled to New Orleans that summer.
Capsule: Charlotte is an awfully interesting seventh seed. Despite their expansion pedigree and postseason debut the Bobcats are a veteran team. Larry Brown coached his first NBA Playoff game on April 20, 1977; Stephen Jackson won a ring in San Antonio and was a huge player in Golden State's 2007 upset of Dallas; Theo Ratliff and Boris Diaw are seasoned performers (Ratliff is more "petrified" than "seasoned") and even young star Gerald Wallace was in the NBA two years before LeBron. At 93.8 points allowed they are the stingiest defensive team in the Association, and they play a deliberate pace that is ideal for spring basketball.
They'll need all of that defense and experience against an Orlando team that has been white-hot since the third week of January. The Magicians are 33-8 in the second half of the season, sixteen of those wins by 15 points or more, and if anything they've looked even better than the team that went to the NBA Finals last season.
Other than the fact that they can't handle Dewey Howard (admittedly, a big "other") Charlotte actually does match up relatively well with Orlando. The Bobcats have a lot of size and range on the perimeter; Matt Barnes is an excellent defender but he can't check Gerald Wallace and Captain Jack at once, and the Bobcats also can make life difficult for Orlando's squadron of big shooters. In the last meeting between the teams on March 14th, the Bobcats handed the Magicians the only loss in their last 13 home games. Charlotte probably doesn't score enough to win this series. But they're perfectly capable of making it very interesting.
Prediction: Magic in six.
#3 Atlanta Hawks (53-29)
#6 Milwaukee Bucks (46-36)
Season Series: Atlanta leads, 2-1.
Memorable Past Series- 1989 Eastern Conference First Round: Despite a galaxy of stars in the lineup and a 52-30 record, the 1988-89 Hawks were considered underachievers. They had a chance at partial redemption in the first round against an aging and beat-up Bucks team- and they flubbed it. On the same afternoon Michael Jordan hit the Shot in Richfield, shorthanded Milwaukee walked into the Omni for the deciding Game Five and stole the victory to send enigmatic Atlanta home for the summer.
Capsule- Milwaukee was the chic pick to steal a series out of the bottom half of the East bracket- until Andrew Bogut's gruesome arm injury two weeks ago. Now, without their charismatic big man, the Bucks are, well… there's an adjective that rhymes with "Buck" and includes an "ed." Atlanta ran to its best overall record since 1996-97 and at third in the East enjoys its highest Playoff seed since 1994. The Hawks still don't have a true center and their crunch-time offense tends to break down into one-on-one vignettes, but they'll still have enough to overcome the crippled Bucks with relative ease.
Prediction: Hawks in five.
#1 Los Angeles Lakers (57-25)
#8 Oklahoma City Thunder (50-32)
Season Series: Lakers lead, 3-1.
Memorable Past Series- First meeting (I'm not counting the Thunder as being the same franchise as the Sonics. The Sonics are in Seattle.)
Capsule: This is perhaps the most intriguing match-up in the Playoffs from a contrast standpoint: the veteran, Championship-pedigreed Lakers from America's most glamorous city versus the youthful Thunder from the hinterlands of the State Formerly Known as Indian Territory. The Lake Show have all the advantages that are supposed to mean something in the spring- the experience, the defending Championship, the coach who was compiling World Title hardware back when Oklahoma City Coach Scott Brooks was waving a towel at the end of the Houston bench. Oklahoma has the youngest scoring champion in NBA history, a huge match-up edge over L.A. in Russell Westbrook, and a Ford Center crowd that will be in full throat for Games Three and Four. It won't matter. The Thunder has a future as bright as the unforgiving sun on the dry grasses of Oklahoma. But it isn't their time yet.
Prediction: Lakers in five.
#4 Denver Nuggets (53-29)
#5 Utah Jazz (53-29)
Season Series: Denver leads, 3-1.
Memorable Past Series- 1985 Western Conference Semifinals: Led by high-scoring forwards Darrell Griffith and Adrian Dantley the Jazz went only 41-41 in the regular season but surprised Hakeem Olajuwon and Houston In the first round, grabbing the Game Five clincher in the Summit. But Dr. Dunkenstein and A.D. weren't nearly enough against high-octane Denver in the second round. Averaging 125 points per game, Doug Moe's Nuggets blew away their Rocky Mountain rivals in five quick games.
Capsule: Jerry Sloan's Jazz shrugged off a mediocre start to post a 34-12 record since January 8th. But with Carlos Boozer out of the lineup they flubbed their chance at home-court advantage, dropping the season finale at home to the Suns. That's bad news against the Nuggets, the only West Playoff team without a winning road record. Utah is especially reliant on its rabid home crowds, but the Jazz will have to play the first two games of the series on the road against a Denver team that, while in a funk ever since George Karl began undergoing cancer treatments, still displayed a marked superiority in the season series between the teams.
Prediction: Nuggets in six.
#2 Dallas Mavericks (55-27)
#7 San Antonio Spurs (50-32)
Season Series: Mavericks lead, 3-1.
Memorable Past Series- 2003 Western Conference Finals: The upstart Mavericks stole home-court with a Game One victory in San Antonio, but the veteran Spurs struck back with three straight wins to take a commanding 3-1 series lead. Dallas won again in San Antonio to cut the deficit to 3-2 and seemed well on the way to tying the series as they led Game Six by 13 in the fourth quarter. The Spurs then ripped off a 23-0 run and coasted home with a 90-78 victory and the conference title. San Antonio won all three games in Dallas during the series.
Capsule: This is a tough one to call. On one hand Dallas has dominated the head-to-head series with San Antonio of late, overpowering the Spurs in five in last season's first round and winning three of four this season. The Mavericks are 23-6 since mid-February and own the second best record in the West despite having the worst point differential of the conference Playoff qualifiers (which is why John Hollinger, who loves point differential, is down on them.) The Spurs, behind the brilliant play of Manu Ginobili, are 18-8 since late February and with Tony Parker back in the lineup are relatively healthy for the first time in a long time. Dallas seems to match up very well with San Antonio, and the Mavericks are probably the deepest team overall in the West, so they get the nod here. But this series should be an absolute barnburner.
Prediction: Mavericks in seven.
#3 Phoenix Suns (54-28)
#6 Portland Trail Blazers (50-32)
Season Series: Trail Blazers lead, 2-1
Memorable Past Series- 1990 Western Conference Finals: It was the first West final since 1981 that did not feature the Los Angeles Lakers, but the talented Blazers and youthful Suns made viewers forget all about the boys from Inglewood. The teams held serve at home for the first five games, than Portland came from behind late in the fourth quarter to eliminate the Suns in Game Six, 112-109 at Phoenix.
Capsule: "White-hot" probably doesn't do justice to how Phoenix has played for nearly the last three months. Since falling to 26-21 after an overtime loss to Charlotte on January 26th the Suns are 28-7. Amare Stoudamire has flashed MVP form down the home stretch, while Steve Nash has enjoyed his best season since the back-to-back MVP runs in the middle of the last decade. The Blazers, meanwhile, are now without the services of Brandon Roy, who took his place on Portland's ever-lengthening injury list last week. I'm not sold on Phoenix as a title contender- they're without Robin Lopez and really aren't good enough defensively to get out of the West- but it would be very difficult for the Suns to lose this series. Portland probably just wants to get this snake-bitten season over with before someone else gets hurt.
Prediction: Suns in five.

The second buttress West of Wendell Spire holds three routes. Pit Viper runs up the middle. (N.B.: perhaps Tom Hanson can clarify. Sidewinder and Pit Viper names seem switched to me. Thus the description for Sidewinder may be the correct one for this route.) Thin moves, long reaches through alligator skin characterize the climbing. For CWC, the rock on Pit Viper is pretty darn good and the climbing is challenging enough to keep one's attention right to the anchor. Regardless of the naming, this line offers no opportunity to stem off the crux.
Half a dozen draws and a rope.
Re-running this route on 1/5/02 confirmed the solid 11c rating. The technical stuff entails one big move to huge incuts on the alligator skin.

About the Author
Born in Oak Park, Illinois, in 1899, Ernest Hemingway served in the Red Cross during World War I as an ambulance driver and was severely wounded in Italy. He moved to Paris in 1921, devoted himself to writing fiction, and soon became part of the expatriate community, along with Gertrude Stein, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ezra Pound, and Ford Madox Ford. He revolutionized American writing with his short, declarative sentences and terse prose. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954, and his classic novella The Old Man and the Sea won the Pulitzer Prize in 1953. Known for his larger-than-life personality and his passions for bullfighting, fishing, and big-game hunting, he died in Ketchum, Idaho, on July 2, 1961.
I wish Amazon would incorporate 1/2 stars but I guess that would make things even more complicated. This is one of my favorite Hemingway books and one of the few published posthumously that lives up to his legacy.
The book, broken into three distinct sections, recounts chapters in the life of Thomas Hudson, a somewhat thinly veiled version of Hemingway. That's not to say that this is a story about Hemingway himself, but its pretty clear there is a lot of Hemingway in Hudson.
The first section, considered hearted and somewhat breezy, the tone of the Cuba section has changed dramatically. Hudson is now a depressed individual having lost a son in an accident. He has a reunion with his first wife, but even though she is the love of his life, he knows it won't end happily. The third part, "At Sea," recounts Hudson's efforts as a Nazi sub hunter.
Hemingway is at his best throughout much of the book, his men are all striving to prove that they are, well, men, or at least the ideal of what a man should be in Hemingway's eyes. And naturally enough, no Hemingway man, in this case Hudson, would be complete without a little tragedy in his life. "At Sea," while powerfully told, seems somehow incomplete, which may well be the case since I do not think Hemingway completed the book before his death. In fact, the ending seemed extremely abrupt and left me wondering, did Hudson survive his wounds?
Still, this is some of Hemingway's best work. A must read. The only reason I did not give it five stars is because of the abrupt ending and a few other brief passages in the book that seem somehow incomplete and unfinished.
Of the Hemingway books I've read or tried to read, Islands in the Stream is my favorite thus far. All the great and not-so-great elements of his legendary style are here, from the deadpan prose to the men who try too hard to be men, but they all fit together very well in this case. The exotic island setting is perfect for Hemingway's trademark everyday-life-is-an-adventure motif, which for once is wholly convincing.
Thomas Hudson, a hard drinking, twice divorced, expatriate American artist, is an all too obvious self-portrait. But his low-key reactions to most of life's ups and downs, the inner demons he mostly keeps a lid on, and his begrudging love of life in spite of it all can surely appeal to the romantic adventurer in all of us. The three sections of the novel, bound only loosely together, follow Thomas from an average day in paradise to a tragicomic reunion with the lost love of his life to a Nazi-hunting adventure off the coast of Cuba. Along the way, there are tragic twists delivered without any sappiness whatsoever, as only Hemingway could do, not to mention a life-or-death fishing scene that rivals "The Old Man and the Sea."
I can't imagine why this is being marketed as a love story, as that aspect of the novel is probably its weakest point, although his (very few) women characters are at least marginally more developed and convincing than usual. It's really more a story of escape and coping with the lack of love, and it's one of the best I've ever read of that subgenre. Yes, as others have pointed out, it's a bit uneven and the first section holds up better than the other two; and yes, the editing is imperfect and surely not exactly the way Hemingway would have wanted it. But the whole book is worth reading all the same. Given Hemingway's condition toward the end of his life, we're lucky to have it.
This is an uneven book. The first part, set in Bimini in the 1930's, and the third part, which describes the hunt for a U-Boat crew off the coast of Cuba, are quite good and contain many passages in the best Hemingway style. The middle section is too long and contains too many digressions in the bad Hemingway style. With all its faults, Islands in the Stream carries a powerful emotional charge. The reader feels that Thomas Hudson is the older Hemingway and that the book is a key to his inner preoccupations. As always, Hemingway excels in descriptions of the physical life. Small boat owners will appreciate his evocation of the glamour and perils of life at sea.

The following is a guest post by Sebastian Brown. If you would like to guest post for this blog, please visit the Write For Us page to view the guidelines.
With unemployment rates reaching an all time high and many workers finding their old jobs obsolete, the need for a position in a recession proof industry is critical. When the economy is bad, even jobs that were lucrative at one point can become negatively impacted when consumers spend less money. However, there are several industries which are not effected by a downturn in the economy because the services that they provide are always needed.
Even in a bad economy, people will still become sick or injured and require care, which makes the medical industry virtually unaffected by a recession. While it is common knowledge that doctors and nurses make a steady income, many fail to realize there are many other positions available within the medical community that don't require years of schooling. Obtaining a position as a medical billing specialist is one easy way to make good money in a bad economy as there is a high demand for these types of jobs.
Why Medical Billing is a Good Job for a Bad Economy
There are several good reasons to get into the medical billing field when the economy is bad. For one, it is an easy way to work in the medical field without having to go to medical school to become a doctor or nurse. While a career in medicine can be lucrative, it will take years of study and thousands of dollars in tuition. Instead, working in medical billing will require only an MBA, which is easy and affordable to obtain. You can sign up for distance learning programs and obtain your MBA online in the comfort of your own home.
Obtaining a Certificate of Completion in Medical Billing and Coding will help you to better comprehend the medical terms that doctors and nurses use so that you can relay this information to patients in a way that is easy to understand. In addition, you will learn valuable computer skills as understanding the latest billing technology is crucial to keeping up with an ever-changing work environment.
Working for Yourself
Medical billing experts can also forgo working in an office altogether and can choose to perform freelance services for a variety of clients. This makes it an ideal career choice for stay at home parents or individuals who prefer to be their own boss. As a freelance medical billing expert, you are the owner of your own small business, which can give you a new-found sense of independence. You get to set your own schedule and pick which clients you wish to work with. Freelance services can also be performed as a side job to supplement your existing income which is always helpful in a bad economy.
However, if you'd rather work in an office, medical billing is a flexible career path which gives you several options. You can work at a private practice or a hospital if you prefer to work in a smaller office that is closer to the medical field. Insurance companies also hire medical billing experts and are a good choice for people who prefer a larger office setting. You can expect to work either part-time or full-time in these types of office settings, with the opportunity for overtime by working nights and weekends.
As the medical industry continues to grow and reach new innovations, the demand for medical billing specialists will continue to rise, making it a good job choice for a bad economy. There is an unlimited amount of opportunity in medical billing with a variety of jobs to suit your economic needs and your personal working habits. Best of all, the career path is easy to get started with, and obtaining your certification will take a short time. Until doctors find a way to make it so patients no longer become sick or injured, there will always be a surplus of medical billing positions available.
About the Author: Sebastian Brown helps run and maintain Medicalbillingandcoding.org. Medical Billing is a quickly growing home-based career that offers stability and a lucrative income.

Far from Home (Magill Book Reviews)
Ron Powers, former television on-air columnist for "CBS Sunday Morning," winner of a 1973 Pulitzer Prize for criticism, continues in FAR FROM HOME an interest in small-town America revealed earlier in his WHITE TOWN DROWSING. In FAR FROM HOME, Powers examines analytically and in elegant prose the decline of Cairo, Illinois, downriver from his native Hannibal, Missouri, after race riots in the 1960's led to a wrenching industrial retrenchment and of Kent, Connecticut, whose bucolic way of life fell victim to the inroads real estate developers and weekend refugees from Manhattan made on it.
In examining two towns, one a town in the Midwest bordered by the Mississippi and Ohio rivers, the other a quiet haven in southern New England, Powers makes trenchant statements about the quality of life in the United States and about the implications all U.S. citizens might draw from the disintegration of their nation's small towns. The move from an agricultural/industrial economy to one concerned largely with information has resulted in the growth of twelve large population centers across the United States that, by the year 2000, will contain seventy percent of the country's population.
Although one of the two towns Powers examines has been destroyed by poverty, the other by an encroaching affluence, the outcomes are similar: Both towns have ceased to exist as they were. Kent is no longer Kent, Cairo no longer Cairo. Both towns are victims,...

Far from Home (Magill's Literary Annual 1991-2005)
Cairo (pronounced "Kayrow") is located on a small wedge of land at the confluence of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers; Kentucky lies to its east, Missouri to its west. Despite Illinois' allegiance to the Union during the Civil War, Cairo is as Deep South as many small towns in Alabama or Mississippi.
Cairo was a dangerous place from the time of its birth in 1818, when virulent diseases crept out of moist lowlands around it, lands that Charles Dickens, who passed by on a trip down the Mississippi, called "a breeding place of fever, ague, and death." Typhoid and cholera claimed the lives of countless early citizens, as the older cemeteries around the town attest. Political corruption and the repression of black citizens were virulent diseases of a different sort. They also exacted a terrible toll in the town, which was socially dysfunctional almost from its inception.
Twelve hundred miles to Cairo's northeast is Kent, Connecticut, an affluent village close enough to Manhattan to be a favorite weekend haunt of city-dwellers in quest of the bucolic. Once a sleepy hamlet, Kent has become a trendy retreat for rich New Yorkers; the influx has permitted some of Kent's older citizens to sell their $20,000 houses for ten times the original purchase price, their acreage at such outrageous prices that it boggles local minds.
Kent has exchanged the simple for the sophisticated, a comfortable, natural rustication for the calculated,...

I couldn't believe the fantastic view of the Duomo from our window! Great location. Just wandering down the street in any direction brought lots of... options for food, shopping, and sights. 10 mins walk from the train station. Sharing a bathroom was no problem; there were 3 available, and always at least 2 free whenever I needed one. With the windows open, the room is quite noisy from the street traffic below, but the window panes are thick and insulated enough to block it all out when closed. The room is very spacious, and, as one reviewer mentioned, is indeed like staying in a decaying palazzio (partial frescoes on room ceiling and walls). A fine hotel for the low price and great location! by Roslyn from Kennewick on 07/20/13

This article is totally off base. I am glad that Memphis is getting these bottom-feeders from Knoxville off the schedule. With the uncertainty of the Big East, Memphis has to focus on putting together a good NATIONAL non-conference schedule and UT is not a part of that. There is no sense playing a worthless opponent like the Vols.
Haha, how cute. Bottom feeders from UT hu? I suppose I should refer to memphis football team as bottom feeders too. I guess that would actually be a compliment come to think of it considering memphis has won..what...a handful of games in the last 20 years?
You also say UT is a worthless opponent, but what is your record against the Vols in recent years? Last I checked, memphis wasn't winning any national championships of any sort. I suppose you could talk about the one they played in a choked away to kansas, but that probably would be a wast of time too since those wins were vacated due to cheating.
Go over to the Vols website and there is no talk about wanting to continue this series. memphis is a laughable basketball program, more so because they get mcdonalds all americans year in and year out and just can't win anything. I pray pasner is your coach for a long time. memphis will never be good anymore until they get a hack job like calapari cheating his way to victories.
Stings he won one at kentucky (SEC, not cusa school) in a year and couldn't win squat with local memphis talent doesn't it?

Dead Snow Review
Written by: DemonicBrilliance
Nazi zombies versus stupid college kids in the snowy wilderness makes for a great movie. As a huge zombie fan, I loved Dead Snow. I had a smile on my face the entire time watching it.
The acting wasn't the best but what it lacked in that area it made up for with hilarious scenes, unbelievable gore, sex in an outhouse, and one kick-ass gun wielding snowmobile. The Molotov cocktail scene was funny as hell. Not to mention the zombies themselves, the make-up was excellently done. These zombies were totally badass and not to be messed with.
Dead Snow is a great foreign film. Watch it and you won't be disappointed, it will have you disgusted yet laughing at the same time.

Dear Dave, I have some bad marks on my credit report. What's the best way to handle them? Patricia
Dear Patricia, There can be three types of nasty items on your credit report. There are errors, which shouldn't be there at all. There are old payments that you paid late, and really, these are just a report of history. Then there are debts that have gone bad. This means you didn't pay them. If these are the types of items you're talking about, you'll have to go back and clean them up. This will mean either making payment in full or settling them at a lower, agreed-upon amount. Probably the biggest headache will be finding exactly who to pay. There's a good chance some of them have been handed over to collection agencies. If this is the case, they'll try to charge collection fees, and in some cases even double the amount owed. You'll have to negotiate with them for a more reasonable settlement amount. So there's going to be more than just a financial hassle attached to this endeavor. But still, even if the debts have a date when they were supposed to "fall off" your credit report, I'd still pay them. Collectors will still chase you in an effort to collect even if they've fallen off your record. They aren't supposed to do that, but many do. And it can hit you at exactly the wrong time—like when you try to get a mortgage. I think this is a good idea, Patricia. Just expect a little work and a few headaches in the process. Getting this stuff out of the way will improve your quality of life, and besides, it's your debt. It's your responsibility to pay it, plus it's the honorable thing to do! —Dave
Dear Dave, I finally paid off my old car, and now I'm taking your advice and saving up to pay cash for a newer one in the future. Where should I put the money I plan on saving for the next five years? Would a mutual fund be a good idea? Kristi
Dear Kristi, I love that you're going to save up and pay cash for your next car. But the problem with mutual funds is they go up and down in value. I love mutual funds for long-term investing, and by this I mean a bare minimum of five years. Still, I wouldn't recommend them as a method of saving for a vehicle purchase. When it comes to saving up for a car, I'd suggest a simple savings or money market account. They both pay next to nothing in terms of interest right now, but at least you'll know your money is safe and not going down in value. You won't be worrying about the ups and downs of the stock market or whether or not you can actually get a better car just because some clown on Wall Street flipped a switch. Did you know that the average car payment in America right now is $487? Even if you hid that money in a cookie jar, you'd have nearly $5,000 in just 10 months. And despite what a lot of people say, you can still get a decent little used car for that kind of cash. It's like grandma always said, Kristi. "Save up and pay for it!" If you don't have the money to pay for something in full, then you can't really afford it. —Dave
