Here's another


President Obama had been claiming till as recently as last year that his law would force no one to give up coverage. “If you like your plan, you can keep it.” But the administration’s own internal communication shows that it knew back in 2010 that 12 to 93 million policy holders might well lose their policies.

My last pay check was 9500 dolr working 12 hours a week online. My sisters friend has been averaging 15k for months now and she works about 20 hours a week. I can't believe how easy it was once I tried it out,Ugg Stiefel Gunstig. This is what I do--

When Jeff Zients gives his rah-rah speech on November 30, can he personally guarantee the site users' security? (Will anyone ask?) That seems to me like one of the upcoming nightmares for the Odministration. There's an easy lawsuit there, an easy injunction to shut the website down until it satisfies federal privacy and security regulations.

Or those one dudes visit a hospital and record EVPs saying things like "Get Obamacare", or the bigfoot hunters find a libertarian living in a secluded cabin with drugs and a nuclear warhead lololz, the unpossibilities are endless!



The exchange initially wouldn’t let people even window shop without first submitting their income information so that it could offer them subsidized quotes and prevent them from walking away in sticker shock. But when this crashed the website, the administration switched tactics.

OT: I have a great idea for a means to integrate pro-Obamacare propaganda into a popular ongoing television series.

The exchange lumped all shoppers into two groups—those under 49 and those over 50. The first group got quotes based on what a healthy 27-year-old would pay and the older group what a 50-year-old pay. The actual prices for specific policies obtained from the websites of insurance companies were much higher, prompting an expert interviewed by CBS, which broke the story, to call this feature “incredibly misleading.”

Sebelius has admitted that Healthcare.gov—the federal online shopping exchange that is the lynchpin of the program—required one year of successful testing before launch. Instead it got two weeks of failed testing. If an automaker had knowingly put a vehicle on the road without appropriate crash tests, this administration, the self-appointed guardian of consumers, would have taken it to the mat.

But the administration’s lies don’t end there.

The security thing.

The participating companies will then face this choice: Stay in the exchange and risk extinction or quit. Either way, exchange patients will have fewer choices and pricier plans compared to non-exchange patients—defeating the whole purpose of Obamacare.

"Obamacare’s defective exchange is not just a nuisance;" It's also a dessert topping!



That’s when Sebelius issued regulations grandfathering policies so long as they didn’t change. If insurers so much as inflation-adjusted premiums, they lost their protected status, becoming subject to Obamacare’s mandates requiring them to cover everything from maternity services for elderly couples to drug rehab for teetotalers.

You know all those ghost shows ("A Haunting", etc.) with terrified families and determined investigators? Well, maybe it's time for voices beyond the grave to correct our libertarian ways. A family moves into a new house, and everything is hunky-dory until the little girl sees the Republican boogeyman living under the stairs! He told her she would never get government abortions,Gefakte Ugg Boots, and that she'd probably be a slut at a liberal college! Fortunately, the demon is exercised by logging onto the obamacare website and obtaining free super-groovy happy panda healthcare.

But the administration has engaged in similar subterfuge, showing that the profit motive is not the only corrupter in human affairs. Partisanship, ideology and—above all—a president’s need to leave a legacy are even more so.

After reading the headline, did anyone else picture a honey badger with Obama's face, kind of like those Nicolas Cage cats?

All the Republican boogeyman needs to do is tell women it's risky to get drunk and that they should pay for their own birth control. We know how horrible such anti-women statements are.

Kinda goes against the whole "informed public expresses will through democracy to achieve greater good" fairytale, but, go figure.

How about the other big lie that everyone is forgetting: that everyone's health insurance premiums will drop? I am still waiting for that to happen.

Well, since they lied to everyone to get their support, does it really count? Is the law still valid? Even though it's all based on fraud?

Or a new type of Republican poltergeist that beats up women,Ugg Boots Billig Bestellen, waging a war--from the grave!, because they so hated women in life, just like the leftoids on tv said!

Most of Lord O's senior team would be up on charges if the rule of law applied in the US,Ugg Boots Aus Amerika Bestellen.



All of this prompted even Washington Post’s “fact” checkers this week to give Obama Four Pinocchios.

What will make this story last is that Obama can likely be pushed into having a 'hell, yes, I ordered the code red' moment in an interview, particularly an ostensibly friendly one. They love the President but love themselves as super-journalists more.







These are the same people who say that elections matter, and that they won, so deal with it.

Six weeks after the troubled rollout of the Michigan Health Insurance Marketplace, the Obama administration may be facing a new challenge: consumer anger at high deductibles in plans that were

Deductibles in Michigan most likely will follow a national trend. A HealthPocket analysis in seven other states found that deductibles in bronze policies are, on average, 26% higher than those of current policies. The question is whether consumers will dig deeper and shop wisely, or whether they�ll simply choose a plan based on a low premium.

While some call the high deductibles sticker shock, James Ralph, another Southfield insurance broker, said it�s a reality check.

Kev Coleman, head of research and data for the consumer website HealthPocket, agreed.

Bronze plans on the marketplaceMonthly premiums vary by consumers� age, where they live and whether they are single or part of a family, but deductibles generally stay the same. Here are bronze plans and deductibles offered on the Michigan Health Insurance Marketplace.

�Most people for years didn�t know how much health insurance costs,� he said.

Dr. Jeffrey B. Klein is a longtime podiatrist who said his premium to insure himself and his 18-year-old son increases from $460 to $760 a month. What aggravates him even more is that his $2,500 maximum out-of-pocket costs jump to $10,200.

Free Press Apps for iPhone, Android now available.

In southeast Michigan, deductibles in most of the 14 bronze plans listed on the marketplace � those with lower premiums � top $5,000 for a single person and $10,000-$12,Ugg Boots Deutschland,000 for a family. Insurance won�t kick in until those out-of-pocket costs are met.

By moving the attorney to a Medicare policy and his wife and employee to separate plans on the state marketplace, Ralph said, the attorney will save about $700 a month, allowing the employee to purchase insurance for a grown child, as well.

Not everyone is finding bad news on the marketplace.

To mitigate risk as much as possible in the individual market, Zuppke and Ralph said they and other brokers are writing separate policies for family members. That way, if one person gets sick, the deductible remains at $6,350.

President Barack Obama announced Thursday that insurers can extend policies on the individual market for another year after millions of Americans, including at least 146,000 in Michigan, received notices that insurers were canceling their policies because they didn�t meet the minimum standards of the health care law.

Former Detroit Police Officer Alfred Goode is among those who had hoped to have purchased a policy by now. Instead, he said, he�s at a loss as to what to do.

And those without employer coverage purchased plans on the individual market that seemed reasonably priced, in part,Ugg Hausschuhe Hamburg, because they didn�t cover things such as prescription drugs or maternity care, he said.

Navigating health care reform: A guide to the Affordable Care Act

Policies sold on the marketplaces generally fit into four tiers, ranging from platinum to bronze. The bronze plans are considered entry-level plans for which consumers pick up a bigger share of medical costs � about 40%. The platinum plans cost more in monthly premiums,Ugg Boots Reduziert, but consumers pick up only 10% of medical costs.

It�s not clear yet how the decision will play out. Michigan�s largest insurers said they�re waiting for guidance from Michigan Insurance Commissioner Ann Flood, who must decide whether to allow the change.

Out-of-the-box thinking

�I think they hear �pre-existing condition� and �affordable rates� � only, Ralph said. �It takes an understanding of more than that.�

Six weeks after the troubled rollout of the Michigan Health Insurance Marketplace, the Obama administration may be facing a new challenge: consumer anger at high deductibles in plans that were supposed to be the most affordable.

Related: Some Michigan health care consumers skeptical they can get canceled policies back now

Ralph recently broke apart an attorney�s $1,800-per-month, small-group plan that covered the attorney, his wife and a single employee.

As it stands now, those high deductibles in the new policies being offered on the marketplace might provide a reason for the low enrollment numbers announced last week by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Just more than 1,300 Michiganders had purchased insurance through the federally run www.healthcare.gov website, Michiganders� portal to insurance under the Affordable Care Act. The site has been plagued by technical glitches that have led to error messages and frozen screens.

Plus, the law now caps maximum out-of-pocket costs at $6,350 for an individual and $12,700 for a family, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius noted last week at a Detroit community health center.

For many Michiganders, existing health conditions made insurance impossible because the policies were exorbitant. Under the law, a person can�t be turned down because of their health status.

�I�m not a poor man, but I can�t afford this,� said Goode, who is losing his retiree insurance in Detroit�s bankruptcy. �That�s like another house note and a car note.�

That might help them move past a bronze plan to be able to afford a silver plan that might have a slightly higher monthly premium, but lower deductibles.

Under the health care law, all plans must carry essential benefits. That�s going to raise the cost for some, but it also means better coverage. Certain visits and preventive-care services are free under the law, and consumers who make less than 400% of the federal poverty level � about $45,960 for an individual or $94,200 for a family of four � are eligible for tax credits that can be used immediately to reduce the cost of premiums.

However, many consumers might not get past the sticker shock.

The Horn Point Hatchery is run by the University of Maryland Center for the Environment. The lab works with the Department of Natural Resources and the Chesapeake Bay Foundation, among others. The Oyster Recovery Partnership provides and cleans the shells the hatchery uses.

Only one oyster needs to spawn in order to create a successful batch, as other male oysters will release their sperm once they detect foreign sperm in the water, Meritt said. Within 12 to 24 hours, larvae develop shells and the ability to swim around rivers, a state which they remain in for two to four weeks. During this stage, larvae are carried by river currents, making them extremely susceptible to water quality changes.

Once the oysters are a couple of weeks old,sudaderas franklin marshall, they get too big and swimming becomes difficult, so they grow an appendage similar to a foot and use it to look for a suitable shell. This is a crucial period,franklin and marshall barato, because they only have a few days to find a habitat before they die.

�Oysters get one shot to determine where they�re going to live for the rest of their lives,� Meritt said. Availability of material suitable to settle down on, good water quality and healthy larvae at the right stage are all factors that have to align for success.

In the winter, oysters enter a dormancy-like period where they don�t feed, grow, filter or reproduce. Once the water warms, typically after early June in Maryland, oysters begin spawning � releasing eggs and sperm, throughout a period that lasts about 20 to 25 weeks.

Once they set, the foot uses an adhesive to attach, which allows the larvae to avoid being eaten and transform into an adult oyster.

�At this stage, they�re no bigger than a grain of sand,� Meritt said, explaining the complex operation. In the hatchery, the process is artificially conducted by placing larvae in tanks,ropa franklin marshall barata, where they can settle on clean shells. Once the larvae have successfully attached to shells and transformed into oysters, the Oyster Recovery Partnership plants them in the bay,franklin marshall españa tiendas, Meritt said.

The hatchery goes through about 65,000 bushels of shells per year. Most shells come from shucking houses, but about 15,catalogo ropa franklin marshall,000 bushels come from the oyster shell recovery program. which collects shells from restaurants and consumers.

This intensive process may create a perfect growth environment for oysters, but that means the conditions are ideal for other species to develop, as well. The lab uses filter tanks to remove any species that may compete with the oyster�s growth, but this process also removes the oysters� food source, so food must be artificially produced.

The Horn Point Hatchery, one of the largest oyster hatcheries on the East Coast, wrapped up its most successful season yet, producing a record number of oyster larvae that have successfully set into a shell.

CAMBRIDGE One Maryland lab is using science to artificially create, feed and grow oyster larvae � no bigger than a grain of sand � in order to help restore the Chesapeake Bay.

( 2 of 3)

According to Meritt,ropa franklin marshall online barata, oysters begin to reproduce at approximately 3 years old, and draw on hints from their environment to begin the process. The hatchery carefully simulates these environmental factors, including proper water temperature and salinity levels, in order to �trick� the oysters into producing sperm or eggs at any time during the lab�s growing season.

Despite the complexity of the program and the time and money demands it requires, Meritt believes the lab�s efforts are paying off: �Last year we produced a record,� of larvae that had successfully attached to shells � 1.25 billion,franklin marshall sudaderas hombre precios, he said.

Oysters are broadcast spawners, meaning they expel eggs into the water and fertilization occurs outside the animal�s body.

The hatchery operates year-round, but only grows new oyster spat during the summer months. Once the spawning process begins, it operates 24/7, until the water becomes economically unfeasible to heat. The lab finished growing its last batch of oysters in September.

Oysters feed on algae, but on different types and densities throughout their growth stages. The lab produces four different mixtures of algae. Computer monitoring systems automatically feed the correct percentage of algae concoction about six times a day into their tanks.

The scientist now oversees the program � and its oyster repopulation strategies � with ease and excitement.
