• Stossel: Health care is a Ponz

  • From: rbb50
  • Description:

    Jenny Hoff
    AUSTIN (KXAN) - Two years after he rallied at the Texas Capitol for a school voucher system, journalist-turned-activist John Stossel speaks out against President Obama's plan for health care reform.

    "It's a Ponzi scheme," said Stossel. "We lock Bernie Madoff up for much less than what the government is doing."

    Stossel, best known for this Gimme a Break segments on ABC's 20/20, is a self-acknowledged libertarian who focused much of his reporting on opinion pieces on his perceptions of government waste. He recently announced he was departing ABC to create a new show for the FOX Business channel.

    In an event sponsored by the fiscally conservative think tank, the Texas Public Policy Foundation , Stossel pushed for a plan that encourages more individual responsibility and less government intervention.

    "The European systems are working OK only because they freeload off American innovation," Stossel said. "Most of the innovation comes from our system because pursuit of profit works."

    Stossel cited the rapid developments in Lasik eye surgery. That happened because it's a procedure individuals pay for rather than insurance companies, Stossel said. He said competition in the free market has led to surgery getting better and the procedure getting cheaper.

    "Insurance is the worst form of capitalism," Stossel said. "Third parties do not spend your money as carefully as you will."

    Stossel is pushing for a plan popular among the conservative base. It would involve a health savings account, where people could part of their pay away tax-free to pay for health care and insurance only for catastrophic medical emergencies.

    During an answer and question session, Stossel intertwined health care with why he left ABC to start a new show with the FOX Business Channel.

    "While health care was going on, we were doing stories on the Jackson family week after week," he said. "I had to get out."

    My comments:

    In the mean time the ponzi schemes called Social Security and Medicare along with welfare are still run today ripping people off for billions of dollars and no one has gone to jail for that yet either.

    A new story from New Jersey of which no one will ever hear about in the drive by medias show grade school kids being forced to sing Barrack Hussein Obama songs all in favor of all of his dictatorship like policies which reminded me of something that happen to me when I was in the 2nd grade.

    When JFK was elected I was telling everyone in school the only reason he would get elected was on appearance alone which of course is exactly how Hussein got elected with no substance what so ever and only on appearance alone.

    Later we were having discussions in class and everyone seemed to tend to try to influence others into thinking JFK was the greatest thing since the wheel

    When my turn came I explained how I knew him as a bold face liar and a drug user and how a whole bunch of people are fooled by con artist just like him everyday only by the way they look and speak and nothing more going on to say how those people will be the ones most likely to get ripped off later in life by those same kind of con artist only because they are stupid of all facts.

    I was sent to the principals office which of course proved to me how the school I was in was just a propaganda center and had nothing to do with learning the truth or anything about real education what so ever

    Well the principal made the mistake of calling my dad and explaining my actions to him asking permission to give me a paddling there

    I could hear all the way across the room as my dad was screaming at him in the phone and stuff like law suits, stupidity, *%^(*&%^%( and many other words.

    After the principal hung up he of course told me to go back to class and give the teacher a note he wrote so I did

    Once I gave her the note she had to leave for a while then came back apologizing to me and anyone else in the class that may have been offended by her actions that day.

    Some how I do not think those students in that New Jersey class will have the same options today but just the teachers actions in the classroom teaching them to sing songs praising Obama should be called into question quick.

    If it was one of my kids in that class that was forced to sing songs like that I would get her fired or that school district would be facing a giant lawsuit in short sending a message to that school district that teaching liberal nazi type propaganda in a classroom is not an option at all.

    I guess I was lucking in that my dad told me the whole truth and nothing but the truth about the Nazis and also had pictures of Jews and others that had been massacred by machine guns in a box car with all of the blood and guts showing along with the machine gun holes in the walls behind where they had fallen

    With other pictures of how they were piled up in front of the incinerator chambers when he was one that had freed a prisoner of war camp and took those pictures showing what they looked like before they were shot only because they were to weak sick and skinney to do any work anymore

    Hey if you want I still have those pictures and I can sure post them here but I do not think the drive by medias would like that much since they do show the whole truth about what happens when someone gets elected on looks and how they speak only without regard to what their real agendas are.

    I was always lucky in that aspect that I had a dad that would tell the truth and had the pictures to back up everything he ever said

    Other kids now days are the ones I talked about in the second grade who have parents that are easy marks for a con artist only because of lack of education or pure stupidity of which the Liberal Democrat party depends on for votes during every election

    The teacher in New Jersey needs to be fired and that district sued is the only thing I see there and if not it just goes to show what I always say about the government run public indoctrination centers

    Pull your kids out now and home school them or they will end up just as stupid as the parents that are allowing stuff like that to happen without ever questioning it at all.

• Twitter Scams

  • From: rbb50
  • Description:

    New scam ongoing on Twitter where thieves sit around and read peoples tweets and just as soon as they find a victim saying they are leaving town or going to the lake for the weekend they know the house they live in is ripe for the pickings.

    Has a lot to do with people putting too much information in there I would surmise such as addresses and phone numbers of which thieves can use to find out where they live

    In some cases I’m sure they even know the person reading the stuff they put in there then once they put up that post about leaving town the crooked friend then knows they are not home at that time

    I do not use Twitter as it seems kind of like it would be a really lame thing to be on a website telling people every thing I do every minute of the day

    I’m sure some people go in there and post a bunch of that information on purpose and then send out those post saying they are leaving town just as a way to make thieves thinks they are gone and that they can go ahead and break into their houses

    Once they break in they are blown in half by a shotgun only to find out the person that posted those blogs only as a way to trap a thief and kill them

    Actually they might consider that illegal for some reason I could never figure out but as it is I’m sure it will happen soon the way things are going now days.

    As it is the thief that gets blown in half by that 12 gauge shotgun with 00 buck shot in it would not be thinking much about it as he was laid out on a morgue table but the person doing that should pretty much explain that yes he was going out of town but had a change of plans at the last minute then found the home invasion crook breaking in and threatening his life.

    Saying you posted stuff like that then laid in wait for that crook might get you in a lot more trouble

    As for me I do not have to worry about it because I do not even use Twitter and I do not need a 12 gauge with 00 buck to take care of any home invasions I might have

    I sure hope people using Twitter will take care and think twice about what they post on there in any case about when they will be home or not or a bunch of their personal information.

    As it is people are alreay getting their houses broken into when they post they are leaving town on Twitter so if you have a bunch of your own personal information on there the only suggestion I can give you is that's not a real good ideal there.

• NEW WIRELESS HEARTPUMP

  • From: CRYSTALCHRIS
  • Description:

    WELLINGTON (AFP) – New Zealand scientists have developed the technology for a wireless heart pump they say could save thousands of lives and offer an alternative to heart transplants.

    University of Auckland scientists said Wednesday their technology uses magnetic fields to transfer power to heart pumps through a person's skin rather than using wire cables, which often cause serious infections.

    "We would very much like for it to be the preferred choice for patients to be able to choose this type of pump over a heart transplant, said David Budgett of the university's bioengineering institute.

    The university has licenced the technology to US medical company MicroMed, which will integrate the wireless technology with its own heart pumps, Budgett told Radio New Zealand.

    The technology uses a coil outside the patient's body, which can be placed in a pocket, and another inside the body near the collarbone to pick up the magnetic field and produce the power for the pump, the university said.

    A battery inside the body can also store enough power to operate the pump for about an hour.

    Heart pumps are used to keep patients alive while they await heart surgery but the wire cable which goes through their stomachs and chests cause serious -- sometimes fatal -- infections in about 40 percent of patients.

    The wires can also break and restrict a patient's movement.

    Budgett said it was hoped the wireless pump could eventually replace transplants, which involve traumatic surgery and require large amounts of drugs to avoid rejection.

    He added about a million people died of heart failure worldwide each year while there were only about 3,000 heart transplants carried out.

    Simon Malpas, the chief executive of TETCor, the university company set up to market the technology, said it was hoped to start patient trials within two years.

    "These wireless heart pumps could be implanted in about 50,000 people each year around the world within 10 years," Malpas said.

    "It's probably the most extreme implantable medical device you can get. If these pumps stop, you only have about one minute to live."

    Previous attempts at making wireless heart pumps produced too much heat and would have resulted in "cooking a person from the inside", Malpas said.

    The new technology was able to deliver exactly the right amount of power, eliminating the heating problem, he said.

• NEW RAIN RESEARCH

  • From: zackshields
  • Description:
    I came across an article about how raindrops fall faster and may have led to overestimating rainfall. Here are the details on the research.

    Raindrops just broke their own speed record: they can drop faster than anyone thought possible.

    Larger drops are speedier than smaller ones because they are heavier and so can more easily overcome air resistance. But there's a limit to how fast a drop can go, a "terminal velocity" achieved when the downward force of gravity equals the upward drag of the air. Thus, whenever smaller drops are detected apparently beating larger ones in the race to the ground, atmospheric scientists interpret the observations as errors by recording instruments.

    But Guillermo Montero-Martínez and Fernando García-García of the National Autonomous University of Mexico in Mexico City and colleagues audaciously propose that the scientists, and not the instruments, have been wrong. After measuring the speed and size of 65,000 raindrops, they concluded that half of all drops break their supposed speed limit.

    The explanation: when a large drop falling at full speed breaks up - either because it becomes unstable or collides with another drop - the resulting droplets continue at the same speed, too fast for their diminutive size. After a few milliseconds, air resistance slows each drop to its own expected terminal velocity.

    The transgression, however short-lived, is noteworthy. By interpreting small, fast drops as larger ones, meteorologists relying on specialized rain gauges or Doppler radar over the years might have been overestimating the amount of rainfall by as much as 20 percent.

    The research was detailed in the journal Geophysical Research Letters.

• Driver hides with monkey masks

  • From: CRYSTALCHRIS
  • Description:

    PHOENIX – A driver has racked up dozens of speeding tickets in photo-radar zones on Phoenix-area freeways while sporting monkey and giraffe masks, and is fighting every one by claiming the costumes make it impossible for authorities to prove he was behind the wheel.

    "You've got to identify the driver, and if you can't it's not a valid ticket," said Dave VonTesmar, a 47-year-old flight attendant said.

    It took Arizona state police months to realize the same driver was involved and was refusing to pay the fines. By the time they did, more than 50 of the tickets had become invalid because the deadline for prosecution had passed.

    Authorities have since stepped up their efforts to ensure that VonTesmar pays his $6,700 in fines.

    On Aug. 19, the Arizona Department of Public Safety served VonTesmar in person with 37 tickets, mostly between 11 and 15 mph over the speed limit. The pictures accompanying the tickets show a driver wearing either a monkey or giraffe masks in VonTesmar's white Subaru, which has black-and-white checkered racing stickers on its sides and a sticker on the windshield that reads "Bucktooth Racin'."

    Agency spokesman Bart Graves also said authorities have surveillance photos of VonTesmar putting on masks before driving and believes that they will convince justice court judges in three area cities that he was the one behind the wheel and must pay his tickets.

    "We have pretty strong evidence against him," Graves said. "We're just asking for his fines to be paid."

    Graves said VonTesmar has repeatedly endangered public safety and that the agency is taking his case very seriously.

    VonTesmar, who said he simply drives with the flow of traffic, said if the Department of Public Safety does have surveillance photos of him on the road, it proves he's not a danger to other drivers. If he were, officers would have pulled him over, he said.

    Arizona began deploying the stationary and mobile cameras on state highways a year ago, and through Sept. 4 had issued more than 497,000 tickets. Of those, about 132,000 recipients had paid the fine of $165 plus a 10 percent penalty, netting the state more than $23 million. Arizona is the first to deploy such technology on highways statewide.

    Many of the remaining tickets are either new, being appealed or have just been ignored. The state didn't have figures immediately available on the breakdown.

    The backlash against the cameras has been fairly constant, however. Arizonans have used sticky notes, Silly String and even a pickax to sabotage the cameras.

    Many believe the shooting death of speed-enforcement van operator Doug Georgianni on April 19 on a Phoenix freeway was a result of anger over the cameras, although authorities haven't made that direct allegation.

    Three separate citizens groups are targeting the cameras in initiatives for the 2010 ballot.

    Shawn Dow, chairman of the Arizona Citizens Against Photo Radar, said he's not sure whether VonTesmar has affected their cause.

    "It is very funny," he said. "In one sense it shows how silly this whole thing is, so you know I'm glad he's using a sense of humor. The fact that he did it 90 times, I don't want to drive around the guy."

    Dow said he finds it interesting that DPS conducted surveillance on VonTesmar.

    "They're out staking out a guy with a monkey mask?" he said. "They watched him break the law and didn't do anything about it? If they had pulled him over, they could have pulled the mask off. It just proves photo radar is not about safety, it's about money."

    Officials say the photo-enforcement program is designed to slow drivers down and keep the roads safer.

    But VonTesmar sees it a different way.

    "It's a peaceful act of resistance — that's what this country was founded on," VonTesmar said. "I'm not thumbing my nose at DPS, but photo radar is not a DPS officer protecting public safety. It's nothing but a speed tax."

• Troops run for 9/11 familys

  • From: CRYSTALCHRIS
  • Description:

    BAGRAM AIR FIELD, Afghanistan – U.S. troops in Afghanistan donned shorts and laced up sneakers Friday to run in memory of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks, as they fight a war that was born of that day but which has seen waning public support.

    More than 1,000 service members ran 9.11 kilometers (about 5 1/2 miles) at the main U.S. base to commemorate the anniversary and remember troops who have died in nearly eight-years of fighting.

    The U.S. and allies first invaded the country in October 2001 to oust the Taliban regime for sheltering al-Qaida leaders who planned the attacks. The Taliban were quickly routed, but the militants regrouped and have mounted an increasingly strong insurgency over the past three years.

    Organizers of Friday's race suggested it is an act of defiance against insurgents who have killed more American troops this year than in any other since the beginning of the conflict. August was the deadliest month for U.S. troops so far, with 51 killed.

    "Our soldiers are running in the heart of Taliban territory, where the attacks on America were planned," according to a military statement on the run, which was held at at least two other bases as well. A run in the Kansas City was planned for the same time, with runners starting simultaneously at 8:45 p.m. local time in Olathe, Kan., to show their support for the troops.

    Soldiers participating in the early morning run at Bagram said their mission has grown much beyond those autumn days of 2001 when priority number one was to get Osama Bin Laden.

    "It's more about establishing Afghanistan's government and the freedom of the Afghan people," said Army Capt. Jeremy McHugh, 38, of Petersham, Massachusetts. He says he's still fighting terrorism, just very indirectly.

    The attacks of eight years ago have faded into the background with U.S. forces here. It's unclear if Osama Bin Laden is even in Afghanistan, and few say they'll be ready to declare "mission accomplished" if he's caught.

    Some of it is the military mentality that you sign up to do a job and don't talk about the reasons behind it, but some of it is also a sign that U.S. forces are nation-building in Afghanistan, even if they do it in the name of preventing terrorism.

    As soldiers stretched for the race around base and snacked on oranges and sports drinks afterward they talked about getting medical supplies out to nearby villages, or training Afghan counterparts or improving the government.

    But the memory of the attacks is there, and on a very personal level. For many on base, the Sept. 11 attacks prompted them to sign up for the military, or to re-enlist. The years since then have been a mixture of the frustration of back-to-back tours and pride in serving.

    Sgt. Joshua Applegate was in high school when the planes hit those towers, and said he wanted to sign up right away. When he finally enlisted two years later, it was with that day in mind.

    "I like my country too much not to," said Applegate, who arrived in Afghanistan in April. He facilitates transport and other logistics on base.

    A memorial service was also planned at Bagram later in the day, timed to coincide with the moment when the first plane hit the World Trade Center in New York.

    President Barack Obama ordered a surge in troops to Afghanistan this year as he shifted focus away from Iraq to a conflict that worsened while money and troops focused elsewhere. But as violence and deaths continue and officials suggest more troops may be needed, public opinion polls in the United States suggest Americans may be tiring of a conflict that now seems far removed from the effort to find Osama Bin Laden and which some analysts say may be unwinnable.

    In mid-July an AP poll indicated that 53 percent of Americans were opposed to the Afghanistan war and 44 percent supported it. In August, an ABC News-Washington Post poll found 51 percent who said the war was not worth fighting, while 47 percent said it was worth it.

    Among the soldiers though, it's hard to find people who say they feel that draining of support. Their family members just want to know that they're safe. The public opinion polls are something they hear about on the news. Following orders in Afghanistan is their daily reality, with just a small break on a day like this one to remember how they ended up here.

• ELEC. Demand way down

  • From: CRYSTALCHRIS
  • Description:

    COLUMBUS, Ohio – Consumers and businesses may finally be seeing some relief from rising utility bills, thanks to the biggest decline in U.S. electricity demand in decades.

    Prices on wholesale markets are expected to decline for the rest of 2009, according to the Energy Information Agency. While rates will probably begin edging up again in 2010, it will likely be less than half the 6.2 percent jump recorded last year.

    For decades as Americans bought more electronics, more appliances, air conditioners and other gizmos, energy demand has only moved in one direction and prices have followed suit.

    The decline in power usage over the past year is a rarity and also an indication of how badly the recession has jolted the economy and changed the way Americans spend.

    The shift began last year, when power consumption fell 1.6 percent. Government forecasters see consumption falling another 2.7 percent this year. That would mark the first time since 1949 that the nation has seen energy demand fall in consecutive years.

    Given the broad apprehension over the economy, any money consumers can keep in their pockets may help.

    "You might see a decrease in your bill or, at the very least, less of an increase. And these days that's not bad," said Charlie Acquard, executive director of the National Association of State Utility Consumer Advocates.

    You can trace the shift from major industrial power users all the way back to individual consumers to see what has happened.

    The number of unemployed Americans is nearing 15 million and prospects for the job market remain gloomy. Retailers just reported their 12th straight month of declining sales and many people are buying only what they must.

    Power consumption by the industrial and manufacturing companies that make everything from cars to cotton swabs has fallen faster than anywhere else — 10 percent this year by government estimates. Industrial consumption fell about 20 percent in parts of the Midwest, Carolinas and the South during the second quarter, utilities say.

    This pullback by some of the biggest energy users in the U.S. may provide a silver lining for millions of people and businesses in the form of declining or flattening utility bills.

    The recession has suppressed demand for coal, natural gas and oil. This has sent a ripple through wholesale electric markets, where fossil fuels are turned into energy.

    In the PJM wholesale market that coordinates prices in all or parts of 13 states in the eastern half of the country, prices are down about 40 percent from a year ago.

    The weather is helping as well. After a very mild summer in which it made more sense to open the windows of your home rather than crank up the air conditioning, most meteorologists see a relatively warm winter on the way.

    How much of a break you get in your bill, if any, and for how long comes down to where you live.

    If you reside in the Northeast, West or in a central state like Texas where rates are based on spot prices, you stand a good chance of getting some relief.

    Customers in more regulated markets or in spots where utilities calculate bills based on long-term contracts will not benefit so much. In those markets, rates tend to be more stable.

    In Texas, about 250,000 of the 2.2 million customers of TXU Energy saw monthly rates fall 15 percent in August. In the Washington, D.C. area, prices for Pepco's 750,000 customers are up this summer.

    The difference is that TXU buys power based off spot natural gas prices, down about 80 percent in the past year; Pepco buys power on wholesale markets with a three-year time horizon that is designed to eliminate roller-coaster like swings in prices.

    "Nobody wants that when you're budgeting energy for home or business," Pepco spokesman Clay Anderson said.

    He expects prices to begin dropping gradually.

    If you are getting a break from your power provider already, enjoy it while you can. There are many factors that affect your bill and most of them tend to drive it higher.

    A rebounding economy will certainly give energy prices a boost.

    What's more, the U.S. power infrastructure is aging and new plants and transmission lines must be built or replaced. That is going to cost businesses and consumers in the years ahead.

    The big wild card is the legislation pending in Congress that may require utilities to cut emissions of carbon dioxide to address global warming. Utilities, especially those that rely on coal, will spend tens of billions of dollars to come up with ways to remove carbon dioxide from emissions.

    They are going to want to recoup some of those costs. Customers will feel it in their wallets when they do.

• La Weight Loss Nu Lite Bars

  • From: Prkchop
  • Description:

    Great discounts on la weight loss bars are always to be had on Ebay I'm on Atkins and the Advantage bars are SO expensive. Sometimes more than $2 a bar! Doing a little digging on Ebay I can buy them for $1 or less a bar. Most times the bars are within the expiration date but even if they are (they are meal bars; they are shelf stable for LONG past their expiration stamp), and kinda melted (they are still tasty). Anyway, you can't beat savings like that. So, go ahead, check Ebay. Just recently I won over a 100 La Weight Loss bars in my favorite flavors on Ebay. I'm stocked up for months, lol! Remember that the councilors at La Weight Loss are commissioned sales persons. They will find a BS reason to convince you into getting your bars from La Weight Loss centers. Just let them know you bought the LA bars from a friend who didn't finish the program or some other story. They can't say much about it. I figured I would complete maintenance with bars bought off Ebay, but wasn't certain if they would let it count. But getting the bars doesn't break the agreement. The agreement only states you have to eat two a day, it doesn't require you buying them from a specific location. Take a look at your agreement to verify it though...but how about that....half price, that's a great deal! But unfortunately there are people out there that take things to the extreme and dieting is no exception. If you feel your dieting is getting out of control, inpatient eating disorder treatment may be for you. Inpatient eating disorder treatment is regularly avoided because people with eating disorders normally imagine that they are not deserving of help. If you imagine you are in need of help, you ought to discourse about this with your doctor. If your life is being disrupted by an eating disorder, you are without question in line for inpatient treatment. Having a wholesome or unhealthy body weight doesn't indicate an eating disorder. People pass away from eating disorder symptoms such as; binging and purging, taking laxatives, induced vomiting while still keeping a perfectly healthy body weight. You need help coping with your issues in a good fashion and inpatient eating disorder treatment can enlighten you. Ask your psychologist for a referral.

• COSTS CUT IN HEALTHCARE

  • From: CRYSTALCHRIS
  • Description:

    WASHINGTON – Bipartisan health care negotiators are aiming to cut the costs of their bill after getting an earful from voters, a participant in the closed-door talks said Friday.

    Sen. Olympia Snowe, R-Maine, a moderate whose support could be crucial if President Barack Obama is to realize his goal of a comprehensive health care overhaul, said contact with constituents "sharpened our focus on issues such as affordability and cost."

    "We keep reinventing the wheel in terms of our approach based on what we learn at home," Snowe told The Associated Press.

    Snowe is one of six senators — three Democrats and three Republicans — on the pivotal Senate Finance Committee who have been negotiating for months to come up with a health care bill that could garner bipartisan support.

    With raucous town halls dominating Congress' August recess and prospects for bipartisanship appearing to dim, Snowe said the outcome was uncertain.

    "People are confused, and rightfully so given how many issues and how many plans are out there," Snowe said. "Ours isn't, and so whether or not we can break through that chatter remains to be seen."

    Members of the so-called Gang of Six spoke on a conference call late Thursday, their first discussion since leaving Washington for recess.

    They discussed controlling costs on their bill while still extending affordable coverage to tens of millions of uninsured Americans. The final price tag will likely hover around $900 billion over 10 years.

    Snowe said keeping down costs means tinkering with the design of health care plans that would be offered through new purchasing exchanges. Another piece is the level of subsidies to be offered to help low-income people buy care, something that remains a matter of debate, Snowe said.

    In their reach for a bipartisan product, Finance Committee negotiators are looking at nonprofit co-ops instead of a new public insurance plan that has become a lightning rod in the debate.

    How that will turn out remains to be seen. Another Finance negotiator, Sen. Kent Conrad, D-N.D., has said there are not enough votes in the Senate to pass a health bill with a new public plan that would compete with private insurers.

    But House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said Thursday that the House couldn't pass a bill without one.

    House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer seemed to contradict Pelosi on Friday when asked about her comments.

    "I'm for a public option but I'm also for passing a bill," Hoyer, D-Md., told reporters. "We believe the public option is a necessary, useful and very important aspect of this, but you know, we'll have to see because there are many other important aspects of the bill as well."

    Obama and members of his administration this week indicated a public plan wasn't an essential piece of a final bill, drawing criticism from some Democrats.

    Before leaving town for a 10-day vacation, Obama met Friday with former Senate Democratic Leader Tom Daschle, an expert on health care policy and politics who was Obama's first choice for secretary of Health and Human Services before tax troubles derailed his nomination. A White House statement said the two "agreed that substantive reform that lowers costs, reforms the insurance industry, and expands coverage is too important to wait another year or another administration."
