- Healthcare Changes and the Affordable Care Act: A Physician Call to Action provides guidance, examples, and information on processes and timelines for physicians based on the implementation of The Affordable Care Act (ACA) that was established in 2010. This volume focuses on how geriatricians and other healthcare professionals can be engaged in responding to the roll-out of the ACA in their communities, and through this engagement assume leadership roles in local hospitals, healthcare organizations, and medical societies to advance quality improvement and new models of care for older adults. In-depth chapters provide an update on quality improvement efforts at the state level as well as changes in Medicaid financing and the significant impact this will have for older adults, particularly dual-eligibles. Many elements of the ACA are yet to be rolled out and many healthcare decisions are yet to be made. Healthcare Changes and the Affordable Care Act: A Physician Call to Action will guide healthcare decision makers and help them to play a leadership role in advancing quality care for older adults in our changing healthcare environment.

- Longevity and frailty 2005Springer
- Longevity genes a blueprint for aging 2015SpringerThe release of the complete version of the human genome sequence in 2003 has paved the way for defining gene function and genetic background for phenotypic variation in humans and allowed us to study the aging process in a new light. This new volume results from that research and focuses on the genetic and epigenetic process of aging. While the interpretation of the genome data is still in its initial stages, this new volume looks at the evolving understanding of molecular mechanisms involved in cellular processes, gene function associated with complex traits, epigenetic components involve in gene control and the creation of hypothesis-free genome-wide approaches. Longevity Genes: A Blueprint for Aging explores the genetic and genomic elements that can maintain a long life such as DNA damage mechanisms, epigenetics and the way we can use this knowledge to generate customized treatments. It touches on some of the multidisciplinary approaches as well as genomic-wide association technology used to analyze complex traits. This book describes the hunt for genes affecting complex traits using a high throughput technology, with adequate consideration for the selection of an appropriate population, applications of statistical genetics and computational biology, and most importantly, considering phenotype-genotype association studies. Longevity Genes provides coverage of not only established aspects of genetics and aging, but also new approaches and perceptions in this important area of research.

- Meeting the needs of older adults with serious illness challenges and opportunities in the age of health care reform 2014SpringerMeeting the Needs of Older Adults with Serious Illness: Challenges and Opportunities in the Age of Health Care Reform provides an introduction to the principles of palliative care, describes current models of delivering palliative care across care settings, and examines opportunities in the setting of healthcare policy reform for palliative care to improve outcomes for patients, families and healthcare institutions. The United States is currently facing a crisis in health care marked by unsustainable spending and quality that is poor relative to international benchmarks. Yet this is also a critical time of opportunity. Because of its focus on quality of care, the Affordable Care Act is poised to expand access to palliative care services for the sickest, most vulnerable, and therefore most costly, 5% of patients- a small group who nonetheless drive about 50% of all healthcare spending. Palliative care is specialized medical care for people with serious illnesses. It focuses on providing patients with relief from the symptoms, pain, and stress of a serious illness, whatever the diagnosis or stage of illness. The goal is to improve quality of life for both the patient and the family. Research has demonstrated palliative care?s positive impact on health care value. Patients (and family caregivers) receiving palliative care experience improved quality of life, better symptom management, lower rates of depression and anxiety, and improved survival. Because patient and family needs are met, crises are prevented, thereby directly reducing need for emergency department and hospital use and their associated costs. An epiphenomenon of better quality of care, the lower costs associated with palliative care have been observed in multiple studies. Meeting the Needs of Older Adults with Serious Illness: Challenges and Opportunities in the Age of Health Care Reform, a roadmap for effective policy and program design, brings together expert clinicians, researchers and policy leaders, who tackle key areas where real-world policy options to improve access to quality palliative care could have a substantial role in improving value.

In addition, this book promotes the concept of using biomarkers representative of oxidative stress reactions and free-radical damage, as well as describing the effects of antioxidants in treating disease in clinical trials. This content is invaluable to both researchers studying the development of and clinicians treating patients with a diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease.
- The gradual increase in longevity in the United States and elsewhere has already brought about a slow-motion revolution in nearly every sector of society, from health care to housing to employment. But if radical life extension moves from the realm of fantasy to reality, that revolution will pick up considerable speed. Extending human life spans beyond those of even the oldest of our ancestors would raise a host of new social, political, economic, environmental, moral and other questions. Religious organizations have traditionally played an important role in helping people think through end-of-life matters and respond to significant social changes. But since life extension has not made the journey from fantasy to fact, there has been little official or even quasi-official guidance in this area from churches and other religious groups.

Experience the Messages from our Weekend Services and more
For Baptism Sunday, Pastor Brady continued the "We Believe In?" series by emphasizing the incredible significance of water baptism. We as believers are set apart and sanctified through the act of water baptism, by choosing to make this public declaration of surrender to Christ. This week, 108 people made that choice?80 of which were spontaneous. What a beautiful picture of people gathering together and living out their faith in community.

Michigan's men's soccer team has made the College Cup for the first time in program history and no one knows that history better than coach Steve Burns.
He played for the Wolverines club team while attending college there in the 1980s. He later coached the club team when his salary for an entire year probably didn't even cover his average expenses for a month.
He earned his "real" living coaching youth soccer and as a business entrepreneur with his wife, Judy.
"You have to give a lot of credit to spouses of coaches who prop you up when you're trying to make it in coaching," Burns said. "I had realized that soccer was that passionate thread in my life, and what I wanted to do."
And he knew where he wanted to do it, having moved to Michigan when he was 8 years old and grown up there. But it wasn't until 1999 that the school made the transition to having men's soccer as a varsity sport.
When that happened, Burns was right there to continue leading the program. You can imagine all of this raced through his mind Saturday when the No. 10-seed Wolverines upset No. 2-seed Maryland 3-2 in double overtime in College Park, Md., and reached the semifinals of the NCAA tournament -- Michigan's first College Cup berth in men's soccer.
The Wolverines (17-4-3), led by scoring stars Soony Saad and Justin Meram, have reached a pinnacle that at one point must have seemed a rather distant dream for Burns.
"I guess I would describe myself as that grinder kind of guy," Burns said. "Certainly, there were a lot of people involved who supported the program all along the way. We've got an athletic department that believed in it. The timing was great after Michigan had won a national championship in football in 1997. It was just a good time for athletics here.
"We had won a club championship in 1997 and backed it up in 1998. And that really did help us get a head start on the program becoming varsity."
The men's and women's teams at Michigan both have benefited from a soccer complex that opened in 2008 but was fully finished earlier this fall. The stadium part of it holds 2,200 fans and gives Michigan soccer its own mini "Big House."
The Michigan men's hockey team will face Michigan State at the real Big House in an outdoor game at Michigan Stadium on Saturday. Meanwhile, Burns and his players hope that their season will still be alive at that point in decidedly warmer Santa Barbara, Calif.
For that to be the case, Michigan will have to upset No. 3 seed Akron in Friday's semifinals, and in doing so totally reverse the outcome of the teams' meeting earlier this season.
On Oct. 19 at Akron, the Wolverines "got the snot kicked out of us," Burns said, almost cheerfully. There's a good reason why: He knows it was bad-tasting medicine that was good for his players.
In that 7-1 loss, Michigan was overwhelmed. But the Wolverines weren't demoralized by it. Just the opposite. They haven't lost since, a stretch of nine victories in a row.
"We were humbled," Burns said of facing the Zips. "It started in pregame with how great their crowd was, and Akron's a very, very good team. It was 3-1 and we had a great chance, but their keeper made a big save. Then it was 4-1, and then
"When you get humbled like that, you have to see what are you doing that needs to change. We looked at our team defense and individual defending, and they just weren't good enough. Since then we've been doing one exercise specifically to address that."
It's called the SOG (shot on goal) drill that puts players in uncomfortable positions defensively and then forces them to prevent a shot from happening. If they don't, they must leave the field.
"You have to get the right positioning and know how to break the guy down," Burns said. "And you have to be patient and know where your help is."
Patience, as mentioned, was something Burns had to have as he shepherded the program from club to varsity status. He had a degree in aerospace engineering at Michigan, but realized while in the process of earning it that his heart wasn't in engineering.
In the years after graduating, he and his wife had a couple of successful businesses, one of which involved work in Costa Rica. There, Burns saw an example of the global reverence for soccer, and he fully recognized that's the way he felt about the game, too. He went back to earn a master's degree at Michigan while he coached the club team and worked toward getting it varsity status.
"Coaching can be like that charge you get as an entrepreneur," he said. "You have an idea and something you want to build, and you go out and do it. Here, we are trying to build a championship soccer program, and every year we have faced a different challenge. That's one of the exciting things about coaching, though."
Freshman's big moment
Louisville forward Aaron Horton grew up near Columbus, Ohio, so he's played plenty of cold-weather soccer.
As the temperature dropped Saturday and frosty flakes fell in Louisville, site of the Cardinals' NCAA quarterfinal match with UCLA, Horton thought, "OK, this is good. I'm used to this. It's kind of fun to play in the snow."
Still he was just as glad not to play in it any longer than regulation. The top-seeded Cardinals avoided overtime thanks to Horton's goal in the final minute.
He weaved his way past multiple defenders, and like a running back who refuses to be stopped short of the end zone, finished the game and sent Louisville to a 5-4 victory and its first College Cup.
"The whole second half, I liked the way I was playing and kinda thought I was going to get a chance," Horton said. "As I cut through the middle, I saw a gap in the defense and just got through it as fast as possible. Then I was in front of the goalie, and I was able to flip it past him."
He acknowledged with at chuckle, "I've watched the replay a couple of times."
As well he should. It was his second goal of the season for the undefeated Cardinals, who will meet No. 4 seed North Carolina in the national semifinals on Friday.
"Coming in as a freshman, this season has gone smoothly because I knew my role," Horton said. "We have found ways to win games; we just know somebody will do something when we need it."
Which is exactly what he did against UCLA.
College Cup schedule
The semifinals at Meredith Field at Harder Stadium in Santa Barbara begin at 8:30 p.m. ET on Friday with the Louisville-UNC match, followed by Akron-Michigan at approximately 11 p.m. ESPNU will televise both games, and the latter will also be on ESPN2 and ESPN3.
Sunday's final is at 4 p.m. ET on ESPN2.

Sewage released into Port Washington Narrows
BREMERTON — A spill of raw sewage mixed with stormwater Wednesday has triggered a three-day no-contact advisory for Bremerton's Port Washington Narrows.
Heavy rains overwhelmed the stormwater system, leading to the release of about 1,500 gallons of combined sewage from an outfall at the end of High Street in Bremerton, according to Shawn Ultican of Kitsap Public Health District. The spill occurred about 3 a.m. Wednesday.
Health officials will post public beaches in the area with signs warning people not to swim or wade or to gather shellfish.

Papua New Guinea - Sigri Estate Peaberry 2/13/2013
Posted By:
Christian Ott
It's been a long wait – finally, we have a new Southeast Asian coffee available at Stone Creek Coffee! I'm excited to tell you a bit about the Papua New Guinea Sigri Estate Peaberry that launches today on our website and retail locations!
Papua New Guinea is an independent country located east of Indonesia and North of Australia on the island of New Guinea, which is the second largest island in the world. Our coffee, the Sigri Estate Peaberry, comes from the Eastern Highland's region in an area known as the Wahgi Valley.
(Map courtesy of dmaps.com)
The Sigri Estate has been around since the 1950's. (An estate grown coffee means that all of the coffee comes from one farm, or estate. We could The primary varietals planted on this farm are Typica and Arusha (a varietal that originated in Tanzania). This coffee is also a peaberry – a naturally occurring unique bean that grows 1 per cherry (typical coffee cherries grow in sets of two) – it's thought that peaberries often have a more concentrated flavor than other coffees. Coffee is selectively handpicked and pulped within the same day. However, a unique fermentation goes on with the coffee – typically, when you "wash" a coffee, fermentation occurs for around a day. However, this coffee is tank fermented for three days. It is also 100% sun dried, meaning that coffee is placed onto drying patios and allowed to dry from the heat of the day. It typically remains on the patio for a few days until the moisture of the coffee is 10-12%. In addition, this coffee is shade grown, which helps control pests and allows for better stability of erosion.
If you have had an East African coffee before, you know that they are typically heavy in body, but sometimes a bit plain in terms of character (earthy/mossy/low fruit). What really stood out to me on the cupping table was the Sigri's unique character while still having the typical mouth feel of a Sumatra or Java. You will taste many unique notes – a very dominant blackberry in the middle of your tongue, a crisp apple sensation on the outside of your tongue, thick honey like body on your tongue, and a finish that is reminiscent of baker's chocolate.
Finally, we wanted to capture part of the unique culture of Papua New Guinea. Our label shows an example of the colorful and equisite traditional tribal cermonial makeup. While improvements in transportation and technology has better connected the country, PNG still has one of the largest tribal cultures in the world - a culture that is just as unique as the coffee that come from there!
I'm excited for you to try this coffee! It is a one of a kind cup! Moreover, we'll only have it around for a few months, so don't wait too long!
Thanks and Sip Slowly!

UAW Region 2-B has a long-standing and proud tradition of awarding scholarships each year to (11) eleven high school seniors from participating Local UAW families in Indiana and Ohio. The affiliated Local Union Presidents voted this year to raise the scholarships to twelve (12) 10,000 scholarships beginning in 2016.
The program was established to honor the memory of former Region 2-B Director and International Vice-President, Richard T. Gosser. Initially, in 1962, a single, $2000 scholarship was awarded. A foundation was established, and through contributions, the award dollar amount and number of recipients grew over the years.
As a means to keep the foundation strong and the scholarships growing even larger, Retired Regional Director, Lloyd Mahaffey, in 2004, established the first annual Richard T. Gosser Golf Outing. Local Unions, units and employers from around the state of Ohio and Indiana field teams. All proceeds go directly to the foundation and (12) twelve, $10,000 Scholarships are awarded each year.
Including the 2014-2015 winners, 308 students have received Gosser scholarships.
Region 2-B UAW Retirees also award (6) six $1000 scholarship awards to the finalists, investing in the future of an additional 107 students. In 2016, the Region 2-B Retirees are raising the (6) six scholarships to $1500.
In all the Gosser awards and the Retiree awards total over $2 million in scholarships awarded over the last 52 years.
The Scholarship Program is open to any Region 2-B Local Union, simply by making a one-time contribution of sixty (0.60) cents per member into the fund. The Local Union must have been a participating member prior to the application deadline before Scholarship applications will be accepted from their Local Union.
Parents can obtain the application forms for their graduating senior from their Local Union President or Chairperson. The application deadline each year is October 15. This is a firm date and there is never an exception made.
Awards are made based on ACT scores, class rank, extra-curricular activites, letters of recommendation, personality traits and leadership abilities. Applications are assessed by a seven member team of prominent community leaders and educators, who then select the winners.

Renee is a mother of three young children who was blindsided by cancer. She was rejected from her husband's health insurance, and several other private plans, because of a pre-existing condition -- leaving her stuck with a plan that had a yearly limit and additional stress that the care she needed might not be covered.
Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, Renee now has the coverage she needs.
You have to hear Renee tell her story -- then, pass it on to show others exactly why health care reform matters.

Take 6 minutes and check out this video highlighting both the inequality and the difference between our perception of inequality and the actual numbers. The reality is often not what we think it is.
So-called right to work laws are wrong for working and middle class families. These laws make paying union dues optional - even though unions are required by law to represent all workers under their agreements. In other words, the laws give people the right to shirk - since all the benefits of a union contract still cover everyone, regardless if they pay dues or not. As a result, unions will have trouble representing members and negotiating contracts because bargaining power will be lost.
The effort to pass a right to shirk law is currently under way in Ohio. Recently these laws were passed in Indiana and Michigan. In Ohio, the same people who wanted to take away our collective bargaing rights with Senate Bill 5 are behind the right to shirk. It's crucial that we educate ourselves and our co-workers, families, neighbors and friends about the truth behind this deceitful effort. When was the last time billionaires spent millions of dollars to give more rights and freedom in the workplace?Read more >>>

Originally published in Russian during the final years of the Soviet Union, this volume examines the influences of foreign literary movements, specifically Romanticism and Realism, on the three authors examined within. By viewing Gibran and Rihani's works in the light of English poets such as Wordsworth, Byron, and Shelley and American writers such as Emerson and Whitmanand by exploring Naimy through the lens of the Russian Realist tradition, drawing parallels specifically with the work of Belinsky, Tolstoy, Turgenev, and the Chekhovian traditionthis work provides an unusual window into the Arab world's cultural interaction with Europe, America, and Russia in the early 20th century. At the same time, it reaches beyond its academic scope and reveals universal elements that speak to all people and go beyond cultural frameworks altogether.less

Not only does Tori Spelling have a new baby on the way, she's also got a new tattoo -- and she's showing it off, along with her pregnant belly, in a brand new bikini photo!
Taken just yesterday, Tori was photographed sunning her bones at the Parker Hotel in Palm Springs -- where her baby bump was on full display as well as her new ink. Click the gallery below to Zoom In:
The tattoo, which are husband Dean McDermott's vows, reads "Journey with me my love and I promise you my heart and I promise you my soul for my bounty is as boundless as the sea, and my love as deep; the more I give to thee, the more I have, for both are infinite."
The second half of the quote is from "Romeo & Juliet."
Spelling, who is currently 4 months along, announced her pregnancy in April.
The couple, who wed in 2006, already have 4-year-old son Liam and daughter Stella, who turns 3 in June. Dean also has one son, 12-year-old Jack, from a previous marriage.

Hello. Can you add feature which justify text on Home page? Thanks.
Hey there! You can easily set the text alignment with CSS:
.featured-content .entry-summary {
text-align: justify;
Use a Custom CSS plugin to do that, such as Jetpack.
Hope that helps!
Yes, it's works. But only for one, mainly post. How I can do this for down (by Jetpack)?
I thought you said you wanted it for the text on your home page only? If you want it for the text on all the page, just use a different selector, for example:
body {
text-align: justify;
You can learn more about CSS and selectors right here: http://www.w3schools.com/css/

Is this "leaked" trailer for "Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice" the real thing? Absolutely not. Does that make it any less awesome? Nope.
Fans, of course, are dying for their first look at the joining of the Dark Knight and the Man of Steel on screen since it was announced at last year's San Diego Comic-Con. With this year's really big show fast approaching, rumors have been swirling that we'll once again get a look at the grudge match that's also sort of a team-up.
So with a "description" of the trailer tease surfacing last week, describing the exact same clip you see above, one could be forgiven from thinking this is the real deal, an advance preview of the surprise Warner Bros. may bring to Hall H during their Comic-Con panel.
Adding to the authenticity of the clip, it's filmed in blurry cell phone footage on an angle, the preferred medium of footage-leakers everywhere. Except, sorry folks, it's not real.
Our reasoning? First of all, there's the fact that Legendary Pictures is no longer involved with Warner Bros., so having them show up in the credits would be a wee bit weird. Beyond that? It's not Ben Affleck in the bat suit. Yes, seeding the idea that Batman was around and watching during the events of "Man Of Steel" is a very cool idea, and a neat teaser, but the suit has a longer nose and bigger ears than the revealed Batsuit in "Dawn Of Justice."
Also, we're pretty sure that's Christian Bale.
Oh, and if it was real, Warner Bros. would have obliterated that YouTube link off the face of the Earth three minutes after it was posted.
Anyway, even though the trailer isn't real, you will get to see something from the movie soon. Cinematographer Larry Fong tweeted the following photo:
BTS of photographer @ClayEnos at work pic.twitter.com/hgUHBreCCf
— Larry Fong (@larryfong) July 12, 2014
That's Clay Enos, who has taken the previous publicity shots of Batfleck and Supercavill. Is he snapping pics of Wonder Woman? Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman together at last? A unicorn???
All we know is that there's a good chance someone will leak a fake version of the Enos picture, and soon.

Yeah, they stick you there, can't reclaim ships you've bought if they weren't C-Store ships. Even ones you got back when they were free.
Made that mistake on my KDF toon a while back. Mostly, I needed them for storage space, as we're now up to like 20 different shield/engine/deflector sets you could have collected over the years, but storage growth hasn't kept up.
About to just start deleting tribbles, pets, and the anniversary toys, as they just refuse to make allowances for people that have been playing this for 3+ years now, and have all kinds of crap we can't really keep storing, and don't really want to throw away because you can no longer earn these items....
Perhaps, if I am very lucky, the feeble efforts of my lifetime will someday be noticed and maybe, in some small way, they will be acknowledged as the greatest works of genius ever created by man. ~Jack Handey
