World Long Drive Champ Ryan Winther and Max Muscle's Mark Sarale Talk Sports Marketing
Sports marketing is huge. But getting it right is no layup.
On this week's edition of Monday Morning Radio, we go behind the story of one successful sports marketing partnership, between 2012 RE/MAX World Long Drive Champion Ryan Winther and his earliest and most ardent sponsor, Mark Sarale, a regional director at Max Muscle Sports Nutrition in Northern California.
Early on, Sarale and Max Muscle generously supplied their sports nutrition expertise and powerful proven supplements to Winther, who with their backing rose rapidly to the top of his sport. "That moment changed my life," Winther says of the first time he walked into one of Sarale's Max Muscle Sports Nutrition Store located in Sacremento.
Three months later, Winther, who once aspired to a career as a professional baseball player, broke the golf ball speed record with a swing that sent the ball rocketing 402 years at 237 miles per hour.
Winther talks about how the lessons of golf success can be applied to the business world. And, importantly, what other business owners should know before they hook up with an athlete in pursuit of a marketing championship.
Monday Morning Radio is hosted by Wizard Academy faculty member and graduate Dean Rotbart and by David Biondo, a veteran financial planner and successful entrepreneur. Rotbart and Biondo produce Monday Morning Radio in cooperation with their weekly radio newsmagazine, Business Unconventional, which airs each Sunday morning at 8:05 a.m. (Mountain) on 710 KNUS AM in Denver.

Michael Milken Says the 21st Century Favors East Asia and Latin America – So Get Prepared
Renowned financier, philanthropist, and medical innovator Michael R. Milken is the featured guest on this week's special edition of Monday Morning Radio.
Milken spoke earlier this month in Colorado before a distinguished audience of business and political leaders, outlining for them his thoughts on the rapid and significant changes that legal immigration have brought to America and how the "changing face" of our nation will have enormous impact on business and government policy in the very near future.
Milken notes that worldwide population growth and education patterns make it clear that China, India, and Latin America will be among the key global economic powers for the rest of this century. If America is to remain competitive, it must invest far more in educating our young people and re-opening our boarders to legal immigrants.
Wizard Academy faculty member Dean Rotbart attended Milken's speech and had the opportunity to meet privately with the billionaire for 40 minutes following his remarks.
What Milken has to say – about the forces that are changing the world as we know it – is priceless business intelligence.
As Rotbart notes at the opening of this week's audio, portions of Milken's remarks are difficult to hear. Rotbart recommends using earphones to capture the clearest possible audio.
Those Monday Morning Radio listeners interested in hearing more of Milken's insights and influences can also visit www.Chavura.com - a weekly broadcast radio program aimed at the Jewish community – where Rotbart and his son, Maxwell, in an exclusive interview, discuss with Milken how his Jewish roots have influenced his business and philanthropic thinking.
Rotbart and David Biondo, a veteran financial planner and successful entrepreneur, produce Monday Morning Radio in cooperation with their weekly radio newsmagazine, Business Unconventional, which airs each Sunday morning at 8:05 a.m. (Mountain) on 710 KNUS AM in Denver.

'Creative' Accounting Transforms Boring Bookkeeping into Profitable Business Intelligence
Wizard Academy helps business owners and entrepreneurs discover the science in every art. In its unconventional classes, which draw creative men and women from around the world, the goal is to demonstrate step-by-step how to do consciously what gifted people do instinctively.
In the generally unglamorous world of bookkeeping and accounting, Jeff and Jake Wilson are two such gifted visionaries. The Wilsons, a father-son duo, look at the same tedious numbers that other bookkeepers and accountants crunch, only the Wilsons spot opportunities for profits and positive change that typically go undetected.
The Wilsons, cofounders of LoomView.com, are this week's guests on Monday Morning Radio, produced in cooperation with 710 KNUS AM's Business Unconventional, the weekly radio newsmagazine airing each Sunday at 8:00 a.m. in Denver and is streamed simultaneously around the world at www.710KNUS.com.
While Jeff, a Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, is a nationally recognized business coach, son Jake comes to the task as someone trained in an entirely unrelated field – architectural design.
Building a successful business is similar to building a great structure, Jake explains. "If you don't know where the beams are, if you don't know what the foundation is made of, and if it's not constructed properly, it will not be able to hold up and perform."
The Wilsons are interviewed by Wizard Academy faculty member and graduate Dean Rotbart. Rotbart, along with David Biondo, serve as cohosts of Business Unconventional. Jeff Wilson is a regular contributor to the broadcast radio program.

1 Hour (Or Pretty Darn Close) Inside the Mind of Rieva Lesonsky - Small Business Legend
This week on Monday Morning Radio, an exclusive, extended interview with Rieva Lesonsky, a pioneering journalist who spent almost 25 years as the editorial director at Entrepreneur magazine. When Rieva began, in the early 1980s, few news organizations paid any attention to small business owners. And most business reporters didn't even know the meaning of the word "entrepreneur."
Rieva has helped many thousands of people start and grow their own businesses. Now, as the head of her own company, GrowBiz Media, Rieva continues to write about small businesses and is a much-in-demand public speaker and consultant.
This week's audio was recorded simultaneously with the taping of Business Unconventional, the weekly one-hour radio newsmagazine that is broadcast each week on 710 KNUS AM and around the world at www.710KNUS.com.
B. Unconventional is hosted by Wizard Academy faculty member and graduate Dean Rotbart and by David Biondo, a veteran financial planner and successful entrepreneur. Also joining the conversation in the second half of this week's audio is Jeff Wilson a small business expert with ActionCoach - Team Empowerment. Wilson is a regular contributor to B. Unconventional.

Q: Links to custom content type in Magnolia CMS I created a custom content type for events and I can list the active events in a page with their summary.
I want to create a details page for every event, currently the generated link for every event points to the event name as if it is a separate page. How can I have a page called view-event that will capture the event name and display its content

    [#assign events = cmsfn.contentByPath("/", "events") ]
    [#list cmsfn.children(events, "ev:event") as event ]
        [#assign active = event.isActive!false]
            [#if active]

${event.name} - details

            [/#if]
    [/#list]

A: I don't think it works that way. If you want to link to a page showing the event, you have to have create such page. You can then pass the event that page should show via either selector or as virtual subpage or via request parameter. See for example how in travel demo tours or destinations are shown. It's the same concept.
In Travel demo, content lives in custom type (tour or destination respectively). However if you open pages app, you will see that under /travel website, there's one page for tours (/travel/tour) and one for destinations (/travel/destination). In the demo, selectors are used to pass info about what tour or destination you want to display. You can see that by observing the top level navigation and see that it points to /travel/tour~active~.html, where the part between ~ is the selector that page template of tour page then uses to resolve concrete piece of content to show.
You could build the same using virtual subpages and virtual uri mapping, but in the end there needs to be a page template and associated page that understands the info you are passing in and how to render the custom content type. Passing just link to the custom content type item will not render the page.
Alternatively, if you develop SPA, you can also request custom content type over delivery endpoint and get it in form of JSON, but then it's your SPA that is responsible for rendering that JSON as html for the browser to present to the user.
In the element that you have pasted in your question, you can list all the events and their details directly. But if you want to point to the details of the event via hyperlink as you are trying to do and have that page to show the content you need to create the page and the template. For example, create page called /view-event in your website tree. Create template called view-event and assign it to the page. Then change the snippet above in your event-overview page to link to the view-event to look like details. That way you get event name (or id or what you need) passed to the view-event page and be able to retrieve it there via state.selector and with that have view-event page render what is needed. More on that in Magnolia Documentation

Top IMDb Reviews (Caution: May contain spoliers)
Possibly the funniest most fun filled animated movie ever made. (by aymanrizk)
I really did not like the original that much; I thought it was about 20 minutes too long and a bit disgusting for the intended audience. But the sequel was brilliant, very funny and just a pure pleasure to watch.The DVD Canadian version if it is different was also well made and had a number of decent extra features. Even the starting menu is funny and a good introduction to the laughter that follows.The songs chosen for the different scenes matched the purpose and the flow of the scene and tremendously enhanced the viewer's experience. And the animation was very realistic. Well done <more>
DreamWorks. Note: do not turn the DVD off as the credits start rolling. Wait for an appearance of one of the characters from the original movie.
<less>
Good Movie (by jts0405)
I thought this movie would be worse than the first Shrek but it actually turned out to be really good. This is a tale of love and comedy. Mike Myers and Eddie Murphy star in this sequel. John Cleese and Julie Andrews are the parents of princess Fiona in this movie and I have to say they play that part well. They are perfect for each other. If you see Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, and John Cleese were all raw comedians before and now they are in children movies and John Cleese works for the humor department on TBS. This movie is worth the money and worth your time if you are a Shrek fan or a Eddie <more>
Murphy fan this movie if for you.
Are you serious? I thought Shrek 2 was so much better than the first! (by Smells_Like_Cheese)
As much as I enjoyed the first Shrek, I honestly almost died laughing and loving Shrek 2. The first Shrek was sweet and innocent, but the second took us to a different edge with terrific animation and just drop on the floor laughable jokes. Antonio Bandares as the cat was just such a great addition to the cast, he just killed me! I don't understand why Shrek 2 wasn't on the top 250, how could someone not enjoy this Shrek? Shrek and Fiona are now married and happy ogres, that is until Fiona's parents wish to see her and her new hubby. Fiona was supposed to marry Prince Charming, <more>
which ruined her fairy godmother and dad's plans, so her dad hires a hit-cat to slay Shrek, but fails, but since Shrek spars his life, the cat stays with Donkey and Shrek. Shrek wants so badly for Fiona to live happily ever after, so he and Donkey take a potion from the fairy godmother and have little time to make sure it stays permanent.Like I said, the Cat was my favorite character, especially when he and Donkey since Livin' La Vida Loca, I thought that it was so cute. Also when he stops the guards in the palace and gives them the cute kitty look. I just don't understand why no one got into the sequel as much as I did, otherwise this would be higher on the rating, and probably above the first Shrek.10/10
Why I Liked 'Shrek 2' Better (by ccthemovieman-1)
I much preferred this sequel, even though I also liked the original, too, as millions of other viewers - kids and adults - did. This second edition, to me, was better than the first one for the following reasons:1 - A faster-paced story; 2 - Better colors, just gorgeous with a 3-D effect in spots; 3 - another great combination of humor, adventure and romance; 4 - no one segment of the story overstayed its welcome; 5 - Eddie Murphy's character wasn't played up as much, meaning less abrasive shouting in this film; 6 - a genuine touching ending which left the viewer very satisfied.Some <more>
of these qualities were all there in abundance in first Shrek, too, but the package was more complete here. It was softer, kindler, gentler Shrek film than the first. Murphy is a funny guy but his incessant talking can get on anyone's nerves, but with less to say, that didn't happen in this sequel.
More Shrekervescence! (by dfranzen70)
I know what you're expecting me to say. "If you liked Shrek ..." And it's so true. Fans of the first will be ga-ga over the second. The gang at Dreamworks was smart enough not to monkey around with a winning formula, so you have all the wit and charm of Shrek Mike Myers , Fiona Cameron Diaz , Donkey Eddie Murphy , and all the fantastic fairy-tale creatures.At the beginning of 2, Shrek and Fiona have been invited by Fiona's parents John Cleese and Julie Andrews to the family castle. Imagine their surprise when the honeymooning ogres show up! Seems the king and queen <more>
haven't heard that a Fiona's an ogre and b that her husband is one, too. Naturally, this doesn't sit particularly well with the king, and soon he's hired a hit man - Puss in Boots, no less, voiced by Antonio Banderas - to bump off his new son in law. Meanwhile, a Fairy Godmother Jennifer Saunders offers help to Fiona. And quickly, the main question of the film - conveniently, it was the main question of the first film - is whether love conquers all. Oh, perhaps it's a bit more complex than that - perhaps it's whether Fiona would love Shrek, no matter what he looked like. Come to think of it, that was the theme of the first one as well. Shrek and Fiona journey to the land of Far, Far Away, where the stuffy king and the queen mum live. Far, Far Away is a clear knockoff of Hollywood itself complete with the sign on the mountain , and the journey includes a pass through what looks like Beverly Hills. The attention to detail is marvelous, as always.As with 1, 2 drops all sorts of Disney references, most resulting in full-out belly laughter. I was in stitches, although perhaps - just perhaps - some of the humor will zoom over your tiny tot's tiny head.Shrek 2 is a beautifully done movie, perhaps even more entertaining than the original. Sure, at the end you know your emotions have been manipulated somewhat, but in the end you really don't care. Outstanding voice performances, flawless animation, and a crisp, moderately adult but not mature, definitely not mature script reign supreme.
This second movie is very GOOD (by Lady_Targaryen)
I imagined this film to be a crap, because it is almost a rule with few exceptions,that second movies are always terrible in comparison with the first ones. But not this one. I cannot say that I liked Shrek2 more then the first, but the second one is very good too: New characters as the Fairy Godmother,Prince Charming,Puss In Boots and Fiona's parents are introduced to us, and a new reality comes, with Shrek and Fiona's relationship going to a deeper step,and new confusions because of their wedding.One of the good surprises, was that neither Shrek or Fiona changed to the human form;I <more>
was almost sure that they would,but I think that the movie would loose its magic. By the way: The voice of the new characters really rules! But Julie Andrews, John Cleese and Rupert Everett only could do a great job.: I liked Antonio Bandeiras as Puss In Boots as well! He really surprised me! Usually, I hate his strong accent
Wonderful solid fun (by jomipira)
Ok, I have to admit that the surprise is gone. The original Shrek was irreverent and made fun of all the children stories known to man... The second one is on the same line but by now you expect it. Still it's been a long time since I've seen an entire theater laugh from the start till the end of a movie. Wonderful new characters you have to love the pussy in boots , superb animation and a all-round well made movie for everyone to enjoy. But please, whatever you do DO NOT read any comments like this one before you go see the movie, it can ruin it for you... And watch the credits <more>
until the end, there are surprises... Enough said, just enjoy the film, it's guaranteed to make any blues just fade away!
Transcending the Genre (by rserrano)
In many ways, Shrek 2 is to fairy tales, what Kill Bill:Vol.2 is to the Kung Fu genre. Although these are very different movies, both spoof all previous movies of their type and are loaded with insider allusions just look at the length of the IMDb trivia sections for each! . Both use latest technology to create a hyper-real quality which goes beyond their forerunners to create a feel that the viewer is seeing something that has not been seen before. But each also stays true to their genres' formula conventions of character and plot that, though seemingly worn out, we still love. As a <more>
result these movies are satisfying, meeting some deep rooted needs but in novel and refreshing ways.2004 may signal a trend in this kind of treatment of well treaded genres, with Westerns and Film Noir as two other potential future candidates.
worst animated film ever made (by stickman-0)
this is by far the most f'ed up movie i've ever seen... what entertainment can you get from: hey! it's the godmothers factory! why don't we go in for a spell? what kind of a joke is that whoever watches this movie has problems... I loved Shrek 1 and i'm sure everyone did... this movie is a disgrace to humanity and mike myers. whoever made this movie is someone that is a shoo-in for pictures to go on my dartboard 2/10 2 for the animation being good and whoever that hates the movie had better have msn... this movie sucks... even if they DID take 4 years to make the damn <more>
thing it still sucks. the jokes are mediocre, animation is OKAY. when they said it was the best movie of the year I took my entire family 7 people to go see it. it cost $126.37 and I had to pay for it. It wasn't worth a damn crumb of popcorn to watch this movie. I would'nt watch it for 1 million dollars. I hate this movie! don't see it!

Finding the right spot to take that special someone out for a first, or fifty-first date, can be a challenge. Luckily, there's the Skylon Tower in Niagara Falls.
Aside from the Falls themselves, the Skylon Tower is the most iconic landmark in Niagara. Situated in the heart of the Fallsview Entertainment District of Niagara Falls, the Skylon Tower is the tallest building in the area, offering a completely uninhibited view of the Falls and the surrounding region. Talk about unforgettable.
Few things says you're interested, or still interested, like a well-planned date. Start with a walk to the brink of the Falls, only a short walk from the Skylon Tower, where you will find ample parking. Enjoy this close-up view of the Falls where you can admire its scale and power, listen to its roar, and feel the mist settle all around you. Take a stroll up Clifton Hill, where you'll find numerous attractions. More adventurous couples should consider a boat or helicopter tour of the Falls and River. If you're more in the mood for quality time, then head into the Skylon Tower to watch a 3D/4D movie or shop at the indoor mall.
The Skylon Tower's central location makes it easy to find your way back for dinner no matter where the day takes you. Choose from either the famous Revolving Dining Room, or the Summit Suite Buffet. Both are home to award-winning, world-class cuisine crafted by expert chefs and feature a view like no other.
The Summit Suite Buffet is a great option for a first date. With a double-sided buffet full of delicious dinner and dessert options, there is something for everyone.
Home to fine but casual dining, the Revolving Dining Room is one of Skylon Tower's most popular attractions. Relax and enjoy your meal as you take in the view in the Revolving Dining Room, as it revolves at a leisurely pace of one full rotation per hour, creating a spectacular panorama dining experience.
Enjoy buttery lobster, steak grilled to your taste, hot and cold appetizers, famous cheesecake, and much more from our menu full of hand-picked, local, and fresh ingredients.
Pair your meal with a wine from our expansive collection. Niagara is Canada's premier winemaking region and home to award winning Rieslings, Cabernets, and Merlots, as well as world-famous icewines that are almost as sweet as this date you planned.
After your meal, enjoy a free ride to the Skylon's Indoor/Outdoor Observation Deck. During the day you'll see a full view of the Niagara wine region – even as far as Toronto and Buffalo. At 775 feet above the Falls, our Observations Deck provides the perfect backdrop for photos and first (or fifty-first) kisses. Can you think of a more romantic way to end your date? Me neither.


I definitely like Irish Whiskey. It is pure. Triple distilled from barley, Irish Whiskey is gentle, refined, and yet still flavorful. The Knappogue Castle 14 Year Twinwood is a single malt Irish Whiskey. While most Irish Whiskey is blended, this one is not. The nose is clea, crisp, and has a light oak aroma. Eric found it to be medicinal with some herbaceous qualities. The barley is strong on the palate as some stone fruit comes through as well in a warming fashion. The whiskey finishes rather smooth with more fruit and hints of the sherry cask, the second of the twinwood aging process (with the first being used bourbon barrels). The final note reminded me of a caramel apple as it slid down my throat. The whiskey is not very complex, but it is smooth, pleasant, and well balanced. It is a definitely an Irish Whiskey worth enjoying.


This session instructs on how to handle multi-lingual, multi-locale and multi-charset issues with PHP. This means an introduction to Unicode and different character encodings; locale issues such as sorting order, comparing strings, date/time formats and converting to upper-/lowercase in different languages; the use of the iconv extension for converting between charactersets and automatic ways of converting to the correct output character set even if the internal character set is totally different, or even consists of different sets. Additionally the translit extension is explained to do conversions between different sets of scripts. With the increasing globalization in online commerce, those issues should be mastered by a PHP developer who wants to dominate the world.

This report critically analyses perceptions on the NDC implementation progress among national and sector experts involved in NDC processes in emerging and developing countries. Questions addressed in the report include: How confident are we on progress towards NDC implementation?, How easy is it to mobilise the actions needed to achieve the NDC target?, What does it take to make a convincing case for the actions needed to achieve NDC targets?, What has been happening this year to support NDC implementation? and, Where do we go from here?
This report is part of a series of biannual NDC Update Reports, published ahead of international climate change negotiations, presenting recent developments, analysis, opinion, and discussion pieces. Drawing on the Ambition to Action (A2A) project and insights from a wide range of climate change experts and practitioners, the reports aim to be a platform for learning, sharing insights, and discussing topics around the implementation of the Paris Agreement.
The NDC Update Reports focus on mitigation ambition and action in developing countries and emerging economies (with an occasional look at industrialised countries for contrast or comparison).
Alignment of policies and strategies: e.g. at national level 55% believe their country is making very good/ good progress in aligning sector development plans with NDC and 68% are very highly/ highly confident in achieving this alignment. At sector level, a majority identifies the alignment of policies and strategies as highly likely to become a major challenge to implement NDC/ raise ambition.
The proposed framework acknowledges general context features, but primarily revolves around the interplay of actors, policies and institutions as well as evidence and ideas for effective policy design and NDC implementation.
Some of the broad questions that we hope to unpack in regard to fitness are: How favourable is the general context? Are actors ready and able to change? Do the institutions and policies create a conducive environment? Are the ideas convincing and is the evidence compelling?
What does it take to make a convincing case for the actions needed to achieve NDC targets? An enhanced benefits approach!
There are significant synergies between low carbon pathways and broader development objectives. A better appreciation of these linkages can decisively shift the cost-benefit calculation for mitigation actions, and help build support among sector stakeholders.

Warner Bros. celebrates Blade Runner 35th anniversary with newly restored Blu-ray edition and Alamo event
Filed under: Movies, Retro Fix, Sci-Fi Café — Leave a comment
Yes, the celebration of the movies of 1982 just keeps getting better. As Blade Runner turns 35, Warner Bros. has partnered with Alamo Drafthouse theaters to present a new 4K restoration of Blade Runner: The Final Cut. You thought you saw the final version of Ridley Scott's original vision with the 2007 version? Well you did, primarily. Blade Runner: The Final Cut was in theaters only briefly then it was issued in several home variations. The Final Cut featured restored and re-mastered original elements, plus added and extended scenes, added dialogue, along with new and improved special effects. The version returning to theaters for the Alamo Drafthouse event updates the 2007 film version with 4K resolution, promising a more immersive theatrical experience than seen before.
All told, Blade Runner is one of the most modified and re-released films around. The Final Cut was the eighth edition of the loose adaptation of Philip K. Dick's sci-fi classic novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, and this new edition is basically the same as 2007 with a sound and picture upgrade. Does that make it the ninth version? That depends on who you ask. The biggest difference between the original and the earlier director's cut was the elimination of Harrison Ford's narration, Philip Marlowe style. If you're a fan of classic noir like we are, you really missed the narration in the later editions from the original theatrical release–that narration gave a nice retro feel in contrast to such a darkly futuristic film. Legal entanglements, cuts for TV and DVD, and more, and a resolution or two later and here we are with this new upgrade.
Leading up to the October 6 release of the long-awaited–unlikely–sequel, Blade Runner 2049, Warner Bros. is releasing a 35th anniversary edition home release of Blade Runner: The Final Cut, coming September 5, including director commentary. You can pre-order the Ultra HD Blu-ray Combo Pack and Digital here at Amazon now.

Brace for health insurance premium hikes
By Julie Rovner /Tribune News Service
Candidates are already honing talking points: Is the current dysfunction the result of the law or of GOP attempts to dismantle it?
As some insurers angle for hefty premium hikes and concerns grow that more Americans will wind up uninsured, the federal health law is likely — once again — to play big in both parties' strategies for the contentious 2018 election.
The impact of changes to the law made by Republicans over the past year — modifications short of the "repeal and replace" they promised — is becoming clear. Initial announcements show health insurers in several states are seeking big increases in premiums for next year for people who buy their own insurance. That is renewing concerns about the potential for "bare" counties that will have no insurer selling coverage and hints that the number of uninsured Americans could again be on the rise.
"It's sort of Insurance 101," said Sabrina Corlette, a research professor at Georgetown University's Health Policy Institute. Insurers "are facing a smaller and sicker risk pool as a result of both Trump administration and congressional action, and that means higher premiums," she said.
"A number of policy changes definitely impacted rates," said Jeanette Thornton, a senior vice president for the trade group America's Health Insurance Plans.
Among those changes are the elimination of the tax penalty for those who forgo insurance, included in December's tax overhaul, and President Donald Trump's cancellation of federal payments to insurers who provide discounts to some low-income customers.
Democrats say they will make sure voters know that Republicans deserve the blame.
"Senate Democrats will be on the floor of the U.S. Senate every week talking to the American public about these rate increases and make sure they know about this campaign of sabotage," said Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.).
Republicans, however, say Democrats are at fault for blocking bipartisan legislation, which might not even have had enough GOP votes to pass. The effort sought to stabilize the Affordable Care Act's marketplace through measures such as setting up reinsurance funding to help keep an individual insurer from facing devastating losses and guarantees for insurers to help pay their share of the out-of-pocket expenses for low-income customers.
"Democrats could have worked with us to lower premiums by as much as 40 percent but instead choose to cling to an unworkable law," Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.), chairman of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, said on the Senate floor Tuesday. "So if you have an insurance premium that is going up 40 percent next year, on top of an over 105 percent increase since 2013, you can thank a Democrat."
The heightened political rhetoric comes after the first two states unveiled insurance company premium requests for policies on the individual market for 2019.
These are not final rates, but they give an idea of what premiums for next year might be for people who don't get insurance through their job or the government and buy their own coverage on the individual market.


America is not the only nation roiled by immigration debates. England, like many Western nations, is also in the midst of a heated one.
Douglas Murray, one of England's leading conservative intellectuals, has just made a major contribution to the discussion in his country.
In a thought-provoking speech, Murray argued that the people of England are "giving up our culture" and "giving up our identity" due to high levels of immigration. He warned that soon, we may unfortunately say that "the peoples of Britain and Europe have lost their place in the world."
The forum for Murray's speech was a debate in Oxford University in January. "It's going to require quite a lot of fairly clear, tough, frank thinking" for Britain to confront questions about immigration, Murray began. He pointed out that he is "not against immigration," but that the speed and rate of immigration have been far too high for far too long.
Past waves of immigrants came in the thousands, while the foreign-born population in England and Wales today numbers in the millions. Murray's point is illustrated by the chart below, showing that the foreign-born share of the U.K. population has doubled over the past few decades.
Source: The Migration Observatory, Oxford University. 17 Dec. 2013.
The point Murray makes is overlooked by pro-amnesty conservatives here in the states. As the graph below shows, in the American context, the foreign-born percentage of our population is approaching an unprecedented level.
Source: U.S. Census Bureau, "America's Foreign Born in the Last 50 Years," available online.
Taking aim at what has become a dogma among Western elites, Murray went on to reject the notion that England is "a nation of immigrants."
There is a motif that this country has always been a nation of immigrants. That is not true. It is not true. For most of this country's history, there was a very homogenous group of people on these islands. The idea that what is happening now is what has always happened is simply a fib.
While some of the U.K.'s immigration myths are similar to our own, unlike in the U.S., the major British parties have both spoken out against mass immigration.
"There is complete political unanimity" that levels of immigration are too high, observed Murray. To prove his point, Murray quoted the two highest-ranking members of the U.K.'s opposing political parties, along with another major liberal figure.
Ed Milliband, leader of the Labour Party and potential prime minister, says, "I do want to get low skill immigration down and therefore overall immigration down."
Current Prime Minister David Cameron last year said, "[U]nder the previous government immigration was far too high and badly out of control." "Net migration needs to come down radically...from hundreds of thousands a year to just tens of thousands," according to Britain's PM.
Murray also quoted former Labour Home Secretary Jack Straw, who called the rate of immigration during his tenure a "spectacular mistake."
"One spectacular mistake in which I participated (not alone) was in lifting the transitional restrictions on the Eastern European states like Poland and Hungary which joined the EU in mid-2004," Straw admits.
Politicians rightly take these positions, Murray argued, because the British public holds similar beliefs. A full 77% in a 2013 British Social Attitudes survey want immigration limited. Fifty-six percent want immigration reduced by "a lot."
Murray concluded with thought-provoking comments on what immigration has done to England's national identity and the very premise of "our values."
"When you have migration at the rate this country has had it in recent years, you have to expand and water down your definition of what you are because you have people coming in so fast that what would have been your definitions of yourself stop holding," he said.
If you asked them 50 years ago, most British people could have given a strong definition of Britain's national identity, Murray said. The Church of England, Parliament, trial by jury and the high courts, and the monarchy would have been at the top of the list.
Why is it now that we have this big endless debate, "Who are we, what are we"? It's because we want to welcome people but it's happened so fast we have to end up doing things like saying Britishness is about "fair play" or "being nice to people."
He warned that high levels of immigration undermine a sense of shared national identity, saying, "We water [national identity] down because it's what we think we have to do... it has become very difficult to say what Britishness is or can be or should be for people when immigration happens at this kind of rate."
Many Britons, "including first and second generation immigrants now say there is a problem with the speed of immigration because it changes the country."
It is all very well to say that we are open to people who share our values. But if our values are watered down and the people who come here come at the rate they have, it is not surprising that we will end up arguing for immigration as an economic thing because we will be giving up our culture, we will be giving up our identity, and we will be saying what some people now do say, which is that the peoples of Britain and Europe have lost their place in the world.
"I think it is right for people to have a place they call home, an identity that they are proud of. I think it for all people around the world, and I think it for the people of this country," Murray concluded, to rousing applause.

Italian premier Matteo Renz has threatened to resign if his constitutional referendum to increase executive power fails.
The following article is translated from L'internazionalista (No. 1, September 2016), publication of the Nucleo Internazionalista d'Italia, section of the League for the Fourth International. The constitutional referendum is being held on December 4.
The rapacious EU bankers and IMF are demanding never ending lowering of living standards and the gutting of basic services and rights. Their demand for "governability" is a push to sharply curtail any semblance of democratic control in order to ram through brutal anti-working-class measures. This is at the heart of the referendum proposed by premier Matteo Renzi for this autumn, saying he would resign if it fails.
The Democratic Party government sponsored "constitutional reform" is part of the push towards institutional Bonapartism to avoid "bothersome" democratic controls. This proposed "reform" goes hand in hand with the government majority's complete takeover of RAI, Italy's public broadcasting network by appointing the majority of the directors; the education "reform" that centralizes the power over education and attacks trade union rights; and the Porcellum (now Italicum) electoral law which makes a mockery out of the right to vote.
It should not be forgotten that the last three premiers: Renzi 2015-2016, Giovanni Letta 2013-2014, and Mario Monti 2011-2012 were never elected. Now the Italicum gives a 53% majority of parliamentary seats to the first slate with the most votes, even if it wins only 25% or so of the votes on the first round. The fact that the Constitutional Court ruled the Porcellum electoral law unconstitutional because it "damages the right to vote", has had no practical consequences. The unconstitutionally elected parliamentarians carry on as before.
The "constitutional reform" would reduce the Senate from 315 members to 100 (of which five would be appointed by the president of the Republic) and stripped of most of its powers. The Camera would pass the national laws, vote confidence in the government and represent the nation while the Senate would represent the local and regional governments. The 95 Senators would no longer be voted for by the citizens, but picked by mayors and local politicians behind closed doors, giving the party bosses even more power.
Local governments would also be stripped of most of their powers, which would be transferred to the central government. Also local politicians could be removed from their posts if the local government has a large deficit. Since the national government drastically cuts these funds every year, this is almost a certainty. The proposed "reform" would also give the government the power to speed up the vote on its newly proposed laws simply by declaring them essential.

Historically, Trotskyists have favored a single chamber bourgeois parliament, as Senates usually have higher voting ages and less democratic methods of representation in order to exercise a conservative influence. But in Italy the voting system is so rigged that eliminating the Senate would be a step toward increasing institutional bonapartism. In fact one of the reasons for the "reform" is to eliminate the situation in the recent past where the PD had a majority in the Camera but not in the Senate.
While communists are not insensitive to bourgeois-democratic and working-class rights and we call for a "No" vote on this referendum, we know that the democratic trappings of the bourgeois state mask the role of capital, and under imperialism the dictatorship of finance capital. Mario Monti's unelected Banca d'Italia government was the norm, but perhaps too crude and obvious, so the rulers want to hide behind the facade of the PD. Thus in Italy the banks name the premier, while in Greece they have a referendum that says "No" and the government decrees "Yes" to austerity.
