Weddings & Celebrations: A Bengals & Browns match, hookah tables, and a traditional Sikh ceremony
Friendship + Tradition = Match made at the Savannah Center
Just Married: Ajaydeep & Deepjyot Kaur Sidhu
When: May 25, 2013
Wedding/Reception: Savannah Center, West Chester
Deepjyot Kaur Singh, daughter of Daljeet and Jagdish Singh of Springfield, was married on Saturday, May 25 to Ajaydeep Sidhu, son of Baljit and Jatinder Sidhu of Chester, Va.
The bride, 25, is a high school English teacher. Her father is a doctor and her mother is a homemaker, volunteer and active community member.
The groom, 26, is a doctor. Both of his parents are doctors as well.
The couple met at a wedding in Cleveland in the summer of 2007.
Their own wedding was a three-day traditional Indian Sikh affair, with the ceremony and reception held at the Savannah Center in West Chester. The room was filled with color and traditional décor, and the bride and groom were overwhelmed by the outpour of love and enthusiasm from their 500 guests.
The pair says that it is their friendship and ability to grow together, whether near or apart, that makes their love so special. The bride and groom reside in Miami Beach.

Just Married: Nazar (Nick) & Jennifer Sweis
When: June 9, 2013
Wedding/Reception: Glendale Village Square, Glendale
Maid/Matron of Honor: Lindsey Huhn, best friend of the bride
Best Man: Basim Sweis, brother of the groom
Jennifer Sparks, daughter of Gary and Deborah Sparks of Cincinnati, was married on Sunday, June 9 to Nazer (Nick) Sweis, son of Shaker and Ektimal Sweis of Al Fuheis, Jordan.
The bride is a middle school teacher. Her father is a CPA and President/COO at Progress Supply. Her mother is also a CPA and is the owner of Huntington Learning Center in Amelia.
The groom is self employed. His father and mother are both retired.
The couple met in 2009 while the bride was working at a bank. They were friends for years before seeing each other romantically.
Despite rain the evening before making seating for guests impossible, love ruled the event, and sunshine made an appearance as the pair walked down the aisle. The aisle and bridal party adorned bright, yellow flowers. Ralph Hoop, Mayor of Glendale, officiated the ceremony.
As the couple was officially announced as husband and wife at the reception, a rainbow popped through the sky, shining on the couple's special day. Guests danced to a mixture of American and Arabic music, and hookah tables were placed outside of the tent.The bride and groom were overjoyed to have so many loved ones present for the occasion and say that although the night seemed to fly by, they enjoyed each and every moment of it.
The couple says they are excited to start a family together and plan to stay in the Cincinnati area.
Romance Rewind: Love Touchdown! Bengals vs. Browns
While most of our weddings happened in the last three to four months, we will occasionally take a walk down memory lane for a good love story.
The couple: Kyle & Kristin Decker
When: May 26, 2012
Wedding/Reception: Hilton Netherland Plaza, Cincinnati
Maid/Matron of Honor: Jessa Matt, college friend & roommate of the bride
Best Man: Michael Decker, brother of the groom
Kristin Riley, daughter of Todd and Beth Riley of Loveland, was married on Saturday, May 26, 2012 to Kyle Decker, son of Mike & Karen Decker of Granville, Oh.
The bride, 26, works as an event planner. The bride's father is a business owner and her mother is a stay-at-home mom.
The groom, 26, is a CEO of sales. The groom's father is also in sales and his mother is a nurse.
The pair met in 2007 while attending Miami University. They were introduced at a local bar by the bride's friend.
Football being a shared love between the couple, (the bride favors the Cincinnati Bengals while the groom cheers for the Cleveland Browns), it was inevitable that football would be the theme of the wedding. The ring bearer's pillow was replaced with a football.

The flower girl, traditionally known to quietly place petals on the floor for the bride, instead replaced her petals with a bell and ran down the aisle yelling, "The bride is coming! The bride is coming!" The ceremony was officiated by a long-time family friend of the bride who is also a co-worker of the groom. He entertained guests with a short story about the pair's engagement while confidently stating that a proposal is the only time someone in a Browns jersey would ever "take a knee" on the 50-yard line of Paul Brown Stadium.
The bride and groom entered their reception officially as husband and wife to Miami's fight song. The pair was met at the bottom of the stairs by the entire bridal party who made an arch for them out of footballs. The guests enjoyed a groom's cake in the shape of a Miami University "M", and the bride's cousin sang a special song for the couple.
When it came time to toss the bouquet, single ladies lined up for a three bouquet toss in lieu of one large one: each bouquet carried a special message inside; such as, "You will soon marry the love of your life."
The lucky bouquets actually led to two of the recipients becoming engaged within two months of the wedding. When it came time for the garter toss, the groom slid onto the dance floor "Risky Business" style, decked out in boxers and knee socks, and tossed a Cincinnati Bengals garter to all the single male guests while rocking out to Bob Seger's, "Old Time Rock and Roll."
The couple plan to stay in Cincinnati and currently reside in the Montgomery area.

Awake TV Pilot 1.01 Review "I have no desire to *ever* make progress."
It's interesting that NBC would first release the pilot for their quasi genre series Awake online in advance of the airdate. And as genre, this is part of the latest trend of men having dead relatives haunt their lives (see A Gifted Man to get the idea.) Now, I wasn't sure about this series, as the idea smacked of self indulgence similar to the aforementioned similarly themed series. To recap the plot. Police Detective (because just about everything drama related these days has to be at least part police procedural) Michael Britten (played by British actor Jason Isaacs) �has lost his wife in a car crash in one reality but goes to sleep and wakes up in a different reality where his son survived. We are treated by dueling psychologists and confused partners in both worlds. Does it work, though?
*spoilers warning*
The show opens with a slowmo scene of the Britten family car crash. And then we move into a grief session with red reality (where his wife is alive) psychologist played by BD Wong (Law and Order:SVU). It's cut off for one of the ep's two 5 minute mysteries. Yeah, they are about that. Basically we see the crime scene, Detective Britten spots a couple of details and the suspect is identified and ultimately shot to death by our hero's partner. That's the police part of the show.
Cherry Jones (24) plays the psychologist in the green reality (where his son is alive) and she argues with BD's assumptions that hers is the dream reality. Why red and green? Mike wears different colored live strong rubber bands in each reality. This is important (at least in the show). At one point he wakes up and freaks out when he finds he isn't wearing a band and cuts his hand to try to prove he is actually awake. Beyond the theme of dealing with grief, the script doesn't concern itself seriously with anything else. When faced with people questioning his 'fantasies' Mike makes no effort to investigate, or even, say be clear if he is reliving the same day, or say living every other day in each reality. He doesn't seem to have even asked his wife or son what happened on the night of the crash (he apparently has no memory of it.) I assume at this point that the procedural part of the show is to offer some cheap and familiar thrills. Because it offers nothing else.
And at the end of the hour we are treated to Mike's mission statement (which he relates to the somewhat belligerent Wong)
"The thing is Doctor, yes, I still see my wife and my son, and I've also seen both of them lowered into the ground. And when you see a loved one buried you have one thought over and over again and that is you would do anything anything to get them back. So if your telling me that the price of seeing them, feeling them, of having them in my life *is my sanity*, it's a price I will happily pay."
Wow, I'm not sure if this beats the wish fulfillment fantasy of Kiefer Sutherland's Touch, but it does come close. There are also echoes of the kind of escapism that was explored in the UK version of Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes series and the Robert Lepage 2000 Sci-fi movie Possible Worlds. We'll see which way this one goes (possibly into a full psychotic break, who knows.)
On the whole the production values are fine, the acting is fine. I think the sci-fi series Charlie Jade did a much better job of using color to�delineate�multiple realities much better. I really didn't see much of difference here. I'm not sure what kind of legs this show will have unless it gets a lot more interesting and a lot less self indulgent/self-absorbed. We'll see in March. I'm guessing no, but I've been wrong before.
Rating: 3 out of 5
One Response to "Awake TV Pilot 1.01 Review "I have no desire to *ever* make progress.""
I�m sorry to see you didn�t care for Awake that much. I actually liked it quite a bit, and it worries me that it won�t capture large enough of an audience and get cancelled. Not that I helped its ratings either though. I forgot to set my DVR and would have missed it entirely if not for the free streaming site set-up by my employer, DISH, called dishonline(dot)com. I actually watched it on there twice to make sure I�d caught all the subtle intricacies. If you decide to give that first episode a second try you can check it out there as well. A lot of the shows (Awake included) is available to DISH customers and non-customers alike, no log-in or anything required.

St. Petersburg, Florida -- Detectives are investigating a case of a missing St. Petersburg man whose truck was found 6 days after he didn't show up for work with evidence of foul play.
Co-workers at Point Brittany Condos first became suspicious of Kevin Lawya's whereabouts after he didn't show up for work which they said was unusual.
After calls to his phone went unanswered, a co-worker drove to his home in the 2500 block of 15th Avenue North and saw his truck was not there.
The employee called police who investigated the home and spoke with neighbors. Police reported the home showed no signs of forced entry or indications of foul play. Neighbors said there was activity at the home the night before and that his truck was parked out front.
On Monday, July 2, Lawya did not show up to work again and the same co-worker, using a key, went into the home and saw his dog was still there.
The employee contacted police again and they issued a BOLO for Lawya and his truck. His truck was found on the afternoon of July 4 abandoned in the 800 block of Union Street South.
St. Pete Police say they found evidence of foul play in the truck and a forsenic team is investigating.
Investigators are asking anyone with information about Kevin Lawya to call the St. Petersburg Police Department's Communication Center at 727-893-7780. Anonymous tipsters can use the Tip Line at 727-892-5000 or Text a Tip at 727-420-8911.

Miami is self-imposing a postseason ban for the second straight year in response to a lengthy and ongoing NCAA investigation into the school's compliance practices.
University officials announced the decision Monday morning, shortly before the Hurricanes (6-5) started practice for what now is their season-finale at Duke this weekend.
By self-imposing another ban, Miami is hoping to lessen the hit of any looming sanctions that could be handed down by the NCAA. It's surely a disappointment for the Hurricanes, since Miami still had a chance to win the Atlantic Coast Conference championship.
Miami's decision effectively ends the ACC's Coastal Division race; Georgia Tech will play Florida State for the ACC crown and an Orange Bowl berth.
The Hurricanes (7-4) could have clinched the Coastal Division title with a victory over Duke, which would leave both Miami and the Yellow Jackets with 5-3 conference records. The Hurricanes were positioned to win the tiebreaker since they defeated Georgia Tech in overtime.
Now, it doesn't matter. By self-imposing a postseason ban, Miami is ineligible to play in the Dec. 1 title game at Charlotte, N.C.

(Feb 06, 2014) On February 4, 2014, Israel's High Court of Justice, in an extended bench decision of eight to one, issued an interim injunction prohibiting the state from transferring financial stipends to haredi (Jewish ultra-orthodox) yeshiva students born between 1994 and mid-1996. Yeshivas are institutions of Jewish religious studies. The state will accordingly stop providing funding to such students in the absence of a legal framework for distribution of the funds, following the expiration of the "Tal Law" at the end of July 2012. (Jeremy Sharon, Haredi Draft: Anger Erupts as High Court Puts a Hold on Payments for Thousands of Yeshiva Students, THE JERUSALEM POST (Feb. 4, 2014); Gil Cohen et al., The High Court of Justice: The State Will Cease to Fund Yeshiva Students Who Will Not Be Drafted [in Hebrew], HAARETZ (Feb. 4, 2014).)
The "Tal Law" refers to the Deferment of Military Draft for Yeshiva Students Whose Occupation Is the Study of Torah Law 5762-2002 (SEFER HAHUKIM [Official Gazette] No. 5762 p. 521; for information on the Tal Law and its expiration, see Ruth Levush, Israel: Supreme Court Decision Invalidating the Law on Haredi Military Draft Postponement, Law Library of Congress website (Mar. 2012).)
The Court's decision prohibits continuation of governmental funding to yeshiva students who previously were given mass deferrals from the military draft and national service by the Minister of Justice. The decision relies on the Knesset's (Israel's parliament) failure to complete legislation that would define the haredis' military or service obligations. The Court reportedly ordered the state to provide an update on such legislative efforts by March 31, 2014. (Sharon, supra, & Cohen et al., supra.)

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A Louisiana-shot film that took top honors at this year's Sundance Film Festival returned to the state where it was made for a Hollywood-style, red-carpet premiere Monday night before opening in select theaters nationwide this summer.
The makers and stars of "Beasts of the Southern Wild" — all newcomers to the big screen — walked a red carpet at the Joy Theater on streetcar-lined Canal Street, hailing the New Orleans premiere as a long-awaited homecoming after media screenings across the country and at the Cannes Film Festival in France in May.

Just wondering if anyone else has an item of clothing they love that their significant other or friends hate.
I have this pink Nike hoody that I bought in New York about 6 or 7 years ago. I fell in love with it immediately, the Nike logo is even in a girly script, and I can't really explain but I just love it even now.
My husband absolutely loathes it though! I think it's cos it's pink and during my heavier times it probably wasn't exactly flattering. It's also had every kind of food stain on it over the years! On our honeymoon in Thailand just over a year ago he tried to persuade me to throw it away - we were travelling around the country and trying to keep luggage light. I reminded him though that I'd need it when we landed back at Manchester in December!
To be honest it's starting to fall apart at the seams and it's no longer as warm and snuggly as it once was so I've told my husband it's on its last legs so it should have a stay of execution! As soon as it falls apart it'll get chucked but until then I'll wear it and wear it.
As I'm in the middle of losing weight again it fits better than it has in years so to my husband's chagrin I'm wearing it a lot at the moment, mwuhaha.

We introduce a new technique (SIEBIMM) for high-throughput measurements
of the mechanical properties of thin polymeric films. This technique
relies upon a highly periodic strain-induced buckling instability that
arises from a mismatch of the moduli of a relatively stiff polymer coating
on a soft silicone sheet. The modulus-dependent buckling wavelength,
typically (1 to 10) microns for 100 nm thick glassy films, is measured
rapidly by conventional light scattering. The SIEBIMM-measured modulus
is shown to agree with that measured by conventional Instron-like techniques.
We show directly that the buckling instability is highly sinusoidal for
low strains thereby insuring the suitability of simple mechanical analysis.
Utilizing our expertise in preparing thickness gradients by flow coating,
we demonstrate that the flexural rigidities of thin films having a wide
range of thicknesses can be measured in minutes. By measuring the
temporal decay of strain-induced diffraction peaks for plasticized coatings,
we show that this technique can evaluate viscoelastic properties, such
as creep. We also show that a large amount of strain induces cracking in
films, resulting in an optical signature where the scattering intensity
decays smoothly with wavenumber. We demonstrate SIEBIMM€s capability
with several academic and industrially-relevant polymeric systems, including
polystyrene loaded with a wide range of plasticizer, a blend of block copolymers
with polystyrene and polyisoprene blocks, and a thiolene-based ultraviolet
curing adhesive.

DISTANT: We incorporated many of the features that customers have come to like about our other VISION3 films into this new low speed, daylight balanced offering. The result is a film that renders images with similar color and contrast, providing more detail in the extreme bright areas and at the finest grain available. Improvement in the signal to noise (S/N) response over the entire exposure scale results in more usable detail at the extremes of exposure, a benefit in digital postproduction applications.
What is the emulsion science behind these improvements?DISTANT: Similarly to the other VISION3 films, we integrated advanced dye layering technology into the green sensitive layer, and the deployment of highly efficient, sub-micron silver halide (AgX) crystals in the low sensitivity sub records of all three color records. The sub-micron silver halide crystals enable detailed, discriminating capture of high exposure information and has made it possible to effectively increase the overexposure latitude of the VISION3 films by two stops while simultaneously improving the S/N in the high exposure areas. This new film also features segregation of each color record into multiple zones of light sensitivity – three zones of sensitivity for the cyan and magenta layers, and two zones for the yellow layer. This allows for increased control over color and tone reproduction and facilitates the creation of a more linear sensitometric response as a function of exposure. This film also incorporates all the VISION3 technologies that enhance image acquisition during chromogenic development such as the high performance coupler technology and the new Advanced Development Accelerators.
What do these breakthroughs mean for the cinematographer?DISTANT: These breakthrough technologies have increased the utility and flexibility of the VISION3 films as an imaging device by extending the S/N response over a broader exposure range - both in areas of low as well as high light intensity. This offers cinematographers more creative flexibility and increased efficiency in real world shooting situations as they can take a bolder approach to lighting and the film's speed rating without the fear of compromising image quality. The additional highlight latitude in this new VISION3 50D will be very beneficial for cinematographers as they are routinely faced with bright exterior conditions and their ability to capture details in extreme highlights are greatly enhanced.
Are there other benefits that will help cinematographers on the set? DISTANT: Compared to our previous 50D film, this new VISION3 film will match the other members of the VISION3 family of films in terms of color and contrast. That 'intercuttability,' if you will, helps cinematographers lend a consistent look to a movie in a wide variety of shooting situations and exposure conditions.
How will these new films work with the latest scanners, and other digital postproduction technology? DISTANT: By designing additional, information rich latitude into VISION3 films, the ability to enjoy predictable response as a function of exposure has greatly facilitated postproduction image manipulation in digital intermediate workflows and telecine applications. This enables digital dodging and burning in post to bring out highlight detail and the extraction of additional information from the shadows without the risk of introducing image artifacts.
How will this film perform as a digital recording element? DISTANT: Traditionally, low speed, daylight balanced films have been the color negative film of choice for non-laser based digital film recorders. The new VISION3 50D with its linear sensitometric response and color consistency across a wider range of exposures not only makes it an excellent camera origination film but also an ideal color negative film for use in digital film recorders. In addition, the VISION3 50D also features extremely fine grain, high resolution, low level of unwarranted crosstalk between the color channels and excellent latent image keeping performance, all qualities that lend itself to the film to performing well in digital film recorders.
What's your take on the future of film technology?DISTANT: The ongoing innovation behind the VISION3 films proves that Kodak believes in the continued viability of silver halide imaging. These films continue to raise the bar as far as image capture and provide increased efficiencies to our customers. Investments in film technology are ongoing and our research scientists are continuing to innovate and provide features that will be beneficial to both filmmakers and postproduction professionals.

Six fiber artists and a potter just completed a five week show today. In MN, in 2008, it was voted that we increase the sales tax to include funding for arts and heritage. The show was sponsored by The Crossing Arts Alliance which promotes the arts in our geographical area and by a grant from the MN arts and heritage fund. The gallery is one that the Crossing Arts Alliance maintains. They take a 25% commission on sales. We took turns staffing the gallery so that visitors could speak with an artist. This was our second show. The attendance was great. If anyone is interested in the gallery set up or our art, go to Joey Halvorson's Facebook photo gallery "Conversations with Cloth" to see 116 photos. The event kicked off with an opening artists reception. On day two, one artist did a two hour demonstration at the arts center. I made books which showed step-by-step photos of process followed by a fabric sample. The following were included: deconstructed screen printing; thermo-fax printing; discharge by different agents; shibori; paper lamination; flour paste resist; low immersion dyeing; addition of color using inks, paints, water soluble crayons and pencils, and Shiva paintstiks; and painting Phil Beaver style. All the art was original. People were amazed at what can be done in the fiber arts arena. A third show is being planned. Shows keep us motivated to continue growing as artists and to create art from the fabric we make. This show definitely had an educational element. We had to justify receiving a grant! The Crossing Arts Alliance had a closing celebration last evening because the organization received a large grant. A state legislator was present so we had a chance to say thank you to someone who is on the committee that chooses where money will go in the state.

Hong Kong Judge Won't Halt Tiger Asia's Trading; SFC to Appeal
July 15 (Bloomberg) -- Hong Kong's securities regulator failed to obtain a trading ban against New York-based hedge fund Tiger Asia Management LLC based on insider trading allegations.
Judge Jonathan Harris of Hong Kong's High Court ruled yesterday the court couldn't make the order to ban Tiger Asia and its employees from trading in securities or derivatives in the city before the Securities and Futures Commission proves its insider trading case in a tribunal or criminal court.
Harris last month refused to freeze HK$38.5 million ($4.9 million) of assets held by Tiger Asia, the hedge-fund firm led by Bill Hwang, or to rule on the SFC's insider trading allegations, saying the court lacked the power to do so. The SFC, as the regulator is called, argued at a hearing on July 11 that the trading ban should be considered separately.
The regulator will appeal both decisions, it said in a statement yesterday. The SFC said on June 21 that starting civil proceedings before the market misconduct tribunal would immunize Tiger Asia and its officers from criminal prosecution.
Tiger Asia, which has specialized in trading equities in China, Japan and South Korea since its inception, doesn't have an office in Hong Kong, and all of its employees are based in New York, according to the regulator. Tiger Asia isn't licensed by the SFC.
Tiger Asia disclosed in October it had also received a subpoena from the U.S. regulator.

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Greg GelpiClayton County's new superintendent's "restructuring" has prompted an ethics complaint. John Trotter said he filed an ethics complaint against Clayton County schools Superintendent Barbara Pulliam. Trotter is the chairman and chief executive officer of the Metro Association of Classroom Educators, a union of metro Atlanta educators. According to a complaint prepared by Trotter, Pulliam breached the Code of Ethics for Educators by hiring three senior administrators Monday and denying former interim Deputy Superintendent Bill Horton an opportunity to complain in accordance with grievance laws. Horton filed a grievance with Pulliam after she transferred him from being interim deputy superintendent to being principal of East Clayton Elementary School. Horton alleged that he never received an increase in pay from principal to deputy superintendent during the 13 months he served the system in that capacity. He asked for the difference in pay, about $6,600. A letter sent to Horton from school system attorney Gary Sams on behalf of Pulliam denied Horton's complaint, saying it wasn't grievable. Despite this, senior administrators urged the school board in a recent executive session to pay Horton and settle the grievance. At the Feb. 20, 2003, school board meeting, the board approved rescinding Horton's resignation and make him interim deputy superintendent. At the same meeting, the board approved raising interim Superintendent William Chavis' salary to $118,000 while he served as interim superintendent. No change in salary was voted on for Horton. Horton said he agreed not to accept a pay increase until the new fiscal year, but there was no increase in the new fiscal year. Sams denied Horton's ability to grieve in a letter, adding that the laws cited in his grievance apply to the Georgia General Assembly, not to school boards, and that his contract is between himself and the board and not himself and Pulliam. "Hence, your complaint is rejected and will not be considered in the grievance process," Sams stated to Horton. Trotter, though, wrote in his complaint that the offense is grievable and can't be dismissed without following procedures set forth by the state for grievances. Trotter, who is in law school, is representing Horton as a friend in the grievance proceedings. Anyone can serve as a representative in a grievance complaint. "The attorney cannot arrogate himself to the position of a judge and then make a ruling on the pleading," Trotter said in the complaint. "The statute does not provide for this. To the contrary, the statute does state that ?the complainant shall be entitled to an opportunity to be heard, to present relevant evidence and to examine witnesses at each level.'" Trotter also said Pulliam's naming of three senior administrators at Monday's meeting violated the Code of Ethics for Educators. "The superintendent is not above the law," Trotter said. "She must follow Georgia law." Pulliam "restructured" the school system and hired three senior administrators Monday without advertising the positions. The administrative rule for personnel hiring was changed March 1. The amended administrative rule allows for "direct appointment" by the superintendent. "The posting of non-school administrative vacancies and the committee's review/interview may be waived by the Superintendent when the Superintendent determines that circumstances warrant the direct appointment of a candidate known by the Superintendent to possess the required training, experience and ability," the rule states. "The Superintendent will recommend to the Board the person to be appointed to the position and the circumstances for the direct appointment." Although Pulliam didn't explain the appointments during Monday's meeting, she did issue a press release on the matter Tuesday. "The focus of our district is placed clearly on improving student success," Pulliam said in a press release of her personnel changes. "These changes in organizational structure will help me to best focus the energy of district administrators in a way that will provide the greatest benefit to schools." She outlined her plans for the coming months and developed six initial goals for the school system. One of those is to "align human and financial resources with instructional goals." As of Wednesday, the Georgia Professional Standards Commission had not received a complaint, John Grant, the commission's chief investigator, said.

Wide Strong Private RFID Identification Based on Zero-Knowledge
Download Now
Date Added: Aug 2012
Format: PDF
The authors present the first wide-strong RFID identification protocol that is based on zero-knowledge. Until now this notion has only been achieved by schemes based on INDCCA2 encryption. Rigorous proofs in the standard model are provided for the security and privacy properties of their protocol. Furthermore their protocol is the most efficient solution presented in the literature. Using only Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), the required circuit area can be minimized such that their protocol even fits on small RFID tags. Concerning computation on the tag, they only require two scalar-EC point multiplications.

How can you get a Quick Hearing for Social Security Disability ?
This is the second of three questions that I've come across recently (in the forum I mentioned in the prior post). Can you get a quick hearing for social security disability?
Well, the social security administration has implemented something called QDD, which stands for quick disability decisions, and this calls for state disability processing agencies (the agencies that render medical disability determinations for the social security administration) to identify (using a predictive model) and separately process disability claims that have a high probability of approval. Originally, QDD was confined to the SSA boston region, i.e. the new england states, but has been extended by the SSA commissioner to all states. And, according to statistics revealed by the social security administration, QDD can move cases through the system faster.
However, to make an overly long post shorter, claimants have no absolutely no input into whether or not their case will be designated for QDD processing and, more importantly, QDD has nothing to do with disability hearings. Now, if a case is selected for QDD and ends up being denied, this may shave some time off the total processing time for claimants who are forced to go through the disability appeal system and appear at a disability hearing.
More to the point, how can you get a hearing more quickly scheduled? Several years ago, it was "relatively" easier. If you had a dire need situation (including imminent foreclosure or eviction), you could submit, or have your disability attorney submit for you, a request for an expedited hearing based on dire need. This type of letter would have been sent to the hearing office director for whichever hearing office had your claim. Of course, you can still do this.
However, now, hearing backlogs have become monstrously larger than they were then, hearing offices are not particularly well-staffed, and more claimants are making dire need requests. So, in all likelihood, no matter where you live, its probably harder to get a hearing expedited based on dire need.
However, if you'd like to make the attempt, what should accompany your dire need letter is documentation. In other words, if you are being threatened with eviction or foreclosure, attach copies of these notices with your request for an expedited hearing.
Also, though many people will pan the idea of calling a congressman or senator to request a congressional inquiry (probably for good reason: at the initial claim and reconsideration levels, calling a congressman or senator is practically a waste of time), at the hearing level doing this can sometimes successfully bump a case further up in line.
