How Can Provider-Sponsored Health Plans Compete?
Provider organizations that take the leap to develop their own health plans compete in a highly competitive healthcare environment with established national, regional and local plans, and in some markets, new non-traditional entrants in the health plan space. Provider-sponsored health plans (PSPs) are not new; PSPs were formed in a wave during the 1980s and 90s. And while notable successes such as Geisinger, SelectHealth, UPMC, HAP, and Denver Health Medical Plan exist, many of the PSPs that were formed during the 1980s and 90s are no longer around. Reasons for failure were many. They ranged from misaligned incentives between providers and the PSP to launching a plan in already saturated and price competitive markets. Not being able to manage out-of-control utilization and associated financial risks were also a leading cause for failure.
PSPs that form now will likely not have the scale advantage of their traditional health plan competitors. In addition, they will need to build or acquire new competencies to operate a health plan—something that health plans already have. PSPs need to have a full suite of health plan capabilities that include sales, marketing, product development, enrollment, billing, claims, care management, and servicing. PSPs need to learn from the past. Managing financial risk will continue to be a critical determinant of success or failure – these are table stakes for a provider organization that wants to launch a PSP. Yet PSPs have many advantages and can compete head-to-head against large health plans – and beat them at their own game.
We suggest two ways that PSPs can differentiate themselves in the market. PSPs can separate themselves in their local markets by focusing on a specific line of business like Medicare Advantage or managed Medicaid. Being focused enables PSPs to optimize operations around a market segment which enables them to compete with traditional plans. We also look at the competitive advantage that PSPs can create with the depth and breadth of their clinical data assets.
One way that PSPs can beat the big boys is by focusing on one or a few market segments. Start-up companies can't be all things to all people. Amazon began with books, Google started with search, Microsoft with operating systems, and Starbucks focused on coffee when they launched. Many traditional health plans support multiple lines of business – commercial, exchange, Medicare Advantage, and managed Medicaid.
To create scale and achieve greater membership, PSPs might be tempted to launch multiple lines of business. However, operating complexity and costs increase when servicing multiple lines of business. As an analogy, think about Southwest Airline's operating model. They fly one type of airplane, the Boeing 737. Pilots, mechanics, and other employees only need to be knowledgeable on a single type of equipment. This limits variability in operations which reduces costs. Now, apply this concept to health plans. Medicaid benefits and plan designs are quite different from other products. Every different product requires additional training or dedicated staff to a product line. This reduces the scale benefit that large plans like to leverage.
Segment focus allows you to keep your health plan operations more simple as you don't need to account for line of business (LOB) variability across operations. This idea of segment focus was examined in a recent study by Deloitte. They found that tenure in the marketplace and scale were important factors in financial performance. That's not surprising as experience and size do matter. As important, they also found that higher market share in a single segment correlated with better financial performance. In other words, you're probably better off trying to get 100,000 members in a single segment than 25,000 members in each of four segments.
Is there still room out there for a PSP? Any decision on market segment needs to be a function of supply and demand. If Medicaid is expanding in your state, that may be an opportunity. Large plans have not universally pursued the managed Medicaid market, as the top ten plans represent only 53% of the market. Conversely, the top ten Medicare Advantage plans account for nearly 70% of the market. Does that mean you shouldn't consider Medicare Advantage? Here again, focus might be the answer. Rather than focusing on a broad Medicare Advantage product, there may be a sub-segment of the market to serve. If there is a large but underserved dual eligible population, a special needs program (D-SNP) might be the place to start. This population is traditionally high utilizing and has multiple chronic conditions. A plan focused on this population serves an important need in most communities. In conclusion, the answer of where to focus is not universal and is a large function of the local markets.
PSPs with integrated delivery systems should have a big advantage over traditional health plans since they face fewer barriers to accessing their members' clinical data. However, to benefit from this, plan and provider leadership at a provider-sponsored health plan should foster a culture of collaboration and shared accountability.
As previously mentioned, a key operational challenge for provider-sponsored health plans will be the development of health plan capabilities. While the plan's initial focus will be to devote attention and resources towards the creation of the organizations, people, systems, and processes to develop these new plan capabilities, it's important not to lose focus on its strategic collaborative relationship with its provider network. This may include the sharing of knowledge and insights, but also tangible assets such as data, reporting, and staff. When there is a close partnership between the plan and provider, they can collaborate on programs that provide significant benefits for both plan and provider with results such as engaged members, better health outcomes, and improved customer satisfaction. But this requires agreement by plan and provider on what the member needs, data and systems integration, analytics to inform the collaboration and measure the results, and partnership on the back end to share critical feedback to support ongoing improvements in the program.
Designing meaningful, effective programs requires thoughtful consideration of the customer experience. PSPs will need to view their enrollees as consumers with broader service needs, and not just as patients. To this end, PSPs will need to give thought to how they will collect and analyze consumer data and services they will provide. This involves mining traditional data sources including call center, IVR, customer services, and web usage data in addition to its claims and outcomes data. Smaller plans may need to partner with analytic solution providers such as those which can provide expertise in data collection, patient and risk stratification, member outreach, care coordination, and reporting.
As healthcare evolves, PSPs will need to consider how to use data that can be collected through emerging channels such social media and mobile platforms, video platforms, and biometric devices. These platforms enable organizations to gather critical personalized information on consumer sentiment, attitudes, behavior, as well as some health information which are difficult to collect otherwise. Many of these platforms provide unstructured data, and will present new challenges for data management, reporting, and analysis. The emergence of these new platforms significantly raises the technical bar and adds additional uncertainty for health plans from a strategic planning perspective. This also provides additional entry opportunities for new, more technically savvy competitors in the health plan space such as Oscar Health and Clover Health.
To effectively integrate its systems and leverage data, a PSP will need to first develop its business strategy and value proposition relative to its competition. And in doing so, it will need to determine how it will work with both other health plans and other providers, who will become both competitors and partners, to provide its value proposition. How it answers these big questions will be critical inputs which will inform its systems integration strategy and roadmap.
Starting a PSP is not a small endeavor and should be approached after due consideration. While examining the local and national competition, provider organizations should think through the areas of differentiation that can pave the road to success. A strong integrated delivery system with a local presence and brand should be able to compete in their market. Focusing on a specific, sizeable market segment increases the likelihood of success. Doing so can help simplify aspects of plan operations, reduce administrative costs, and meet a true need in the marketplace. Finally, provider systems should be able to leverage their data advantage by mining their data to better understand their customers' needs and provide a consumer experience which meets a broader set of their needs as consumers. Leveraging their data to better manage utilization and risk is critical to the PSP's long-term financial success. Provider organizations that can create a compelling value proposition, differentiate themselves in the market, manage risk, and deliver effective service can greatly increase their chance of success.

FTX Launching Gaming Division To Take Advantage Of Growth Of NFTs And Play-To-Earn In Sector
by Chris Katje, Benzinga Staff Writer
February 22, 2022 11:04 AM | 2 min read
Zinger Key Points
FTX announced the launch of FTX Gaming, a unit that will provide "complete solutions" for companies and projects seeking to grow in web3.
Growth of NFTs in the gaming sector has boomed with play-to-earn among the most popular topics for NFTs over the last few months.
A leading cryptocurrency exchange and NFT marketplace is launching a gaming division that could see growth because the sector is recognizing the monetization efforts of non-fungible tokens and web3.
What Happened: FTX announced the launch of FTX Gaming, a unit that will provide "complete solutions" for companies and projects seeking to grow in web3.
"There's a future where two billion gamers get to own what they earn and we want to help build it," FTX said in a tweet.
The new segment will offer Faas, or FTX-as-a-service, according to Amy Wu, the head of FTX Ventures and Gaming.
"We believe the future of web3 games," Wu tweeted. "We offer an end-to-end solution of our core product to launch NFTs and tokens: a custodial wallet with non-custodial integrations, primary and secondary trading, compliance and licensing, and more, all white labeled and in-house."
Brett Harrison, head of FTX US, said the company is providing the crossover between crypto and gaming.
"As game studios seek ways to bring ownership, transferability and price discovery to their in-game economics, we intend to partner with them to provide backend exchange technology," Harrison said.

Why It's Important: Growth of NFTs in the gaming sector has boomed with play-to-earn among the most popular topics for NFTs over the last few months.
"There are gamers who don't believe in NFTs in games, but there were also naysayers about free-to-play and mobile gaming," Wu said.
Harrison said games need to be fun for every user, whether or not they're experienced with crypto or NFTs. FTX is seeking to bridge the gap and provide education and technology to allow every user to own their in-game content.
"We also believe that the power of blockchain technology can enable users to invest in their games in ways that carry over to worlds outside of in-game economies, including potential transferability of these involvements to other games," Harrison said.
Harrison said blockchain gaming can help take features that exist in games such as avatars, skins and rewards and make it possible for players to own these items and trade them inside and outside of the game.
FTX is seeking to find software engineers with experience in programming and also those familiar with the Unity game engine from Unity Software Inc U. Unity is a leading partner for game developers.
FTX launched a $100 million blockchain gaming fund in November with partners Solana Ventures and Lightspeed Venture Partners. The fund will invest in startups in the blockchain gaming space.
FTX was valued at $32 billion in January in a new $400 million funding round.

Are these critics' concerns valid about the dangers of expanding the SDF's role in Japanese defense? Japan's defense legislation is relatively limited in scope, and avoids implementing major constitutional revisions. One of the two most controversial bills, the international peacekeeping assistance bill, allows Japanese "Blue Helmets" (soldiers fighting in UN battalions) to aid other peacekeepers and engage enemy combatants, using deadly force if necessary. Before introducing the international peacekeeping bill, the Japanese largely provided non-combat support units (such as engineers, medics, etc.) to assist in operations. However, their constitution legally barred them from reinforcing or assisting other UN units engaged in firefights. Practically speaking, the SDF will not likely engage militants in South Sudan – Japan's largest operation with the UN peacekeepers – until it can deploy combat regiments to the region. But deploying military forces will put Japan at risk of combat fatalities. Combat fatalities could have serious political ramifications for Japanese domestic politics given that Japanese public approval of SDF deployments relies significantly on low casualties and the humanitarian nature of the operations.
The second bill allows Japan to militarily aid of its allies engaged in the region – namely the United States and South Korea. This bill follows a revision of U.S-Japanese defense strategy for the Senkaku/Diaoyo island chain. This new defense strategy depends on maritime assistance from U.S forces to block Chinese naval ships from breaking into the high Pacific before U.S reinforcements can arrive. Without this legislative permission, the SDF cannot reinforce American forces in the region, which could allow Chinese ships to dominate the islands and associated waterways and to gain a significant strategic advantage over Japan in any potential conflict. Naturally, given the recent aggressive Chinese and Japanese rhetoric over the ownership of islands in the South China Sea, this move will not only increase the operational flexibility of the Japanese military, but will also reaffirm Japan's willingness and capability to defend its claims of sovereignty in the South China sea in the face of potential Chinese aggression.
Western audiences will likely view these changes as long overdue. However, Japan's hesitation and political controversy make sense in the context of changes in Japan's cultural and political psyche following its defeat in World War II. Practically, Japan needs these changes to normalize its military capabilities, which will demonstrate to its allies that it is taking an active and expanded role in its own defense and will allow for greater cooperation on international operations.
The Japanese constitution still bans wars of offensive aggression and any conflicts outside international peacekeeping or defense of allies, so Japan should not take more aggressive stances militarily and should not engage in overseas military action. Japan's Self Defense Force is directly accountable to the civilian government of Japan, so the Japanese people still have democratic controls over potential military engagements and could use democratic means to check any aggressive military actions or further legislative attempts to broaden Japanese defense capabilities.
Fears from critics are largely overblown, but they will likely persist. Japan has benefitted from a constrained defense budget, kept low by constitutional mandate, which has allowed it to use potential defense funds elsewhere (education, welfare, etc.). Because Japan, through its post-war history and engrained in its institutions, has been conditioned to abstain from war and to minimize defense budgets, it must now normalize and socialize its defense politics and embrace its role as a healthy liberal and modern democracy. The process may be long and difficult, but in the end it will allow Japan to contribute to a pacific alliance with the United States not just as a dependent, but also as a partner, and set a course for Japan to emerge from its post-WWII defense restrictions to gain the normalcy and defense self-determination of a strong and healthy nation-state.

Nocturnal critter enjoying a meal?
Start of the fourth qtr.


I don't know about you, but I tend to overreach and try to do too much all at once.
Then… crash and burn. Better luck next year.
Well, let's make it short and simple this year so that you can start creating positive change in your relationship right now!
If your goal is to have a healthier marriage, here are three simple habits you can develop to help you make it happen.
Ditch the electronics during your alone time.
Are you glued to the computer or TV when your spouse is trying to talk to you?
When you spend time with your spouse does the phone keep beeping with that "important" text?
I know that our phones are our lifeline and it's hard to part ways even for an hour, but the lifeline for your marriage is uninterrupted quality time.
When you let these devices take center stage, it can damage the intimate connection you know you want to have.
Instead, try to schedule uninterrupted alone time with your spouse on a regular basis. Make a habit of shutting out the world for a brief time each day to reconnect with the one you love.
There's nothing more annoying than having your spouse tell you what you're thinking. It's bound to cause some friction.
But there's an easy cure. It just takes tweaking your message a little and using more "I" statements.
For example, you emphatically proclaiming to your spouse: "You never liked my mother!" (This is headed for WW 3).
Same content - much better presentation.
This doesn't apply to the leaky faucet or the broken tail pipe. Fix away.
I'm referring to the times you try to fix your partner's problems and you miss the all important job of simply listening.
So when your spouse is sharing something difficult, get into the habit of taking the time to really listen.
It takes a little extra effort, but it's so worth it. Trust me, if your spouse wants your advice, you'll know it!.
Besides, it's so much easier to listen rather than having to come up with all those fancy solutions all the time. What a relief!
And listening is almost always what your spouse actually needs from you. Don't underestimate the power of your focused attention. It's invaluable.
Just changing a few habits here and there can make a big difference in your relationship and it might even make this new year the best ever!

Marching Mustangs compete at Urbandale
by Dylan Sanders
The PCM Marching Mustangs traveled to Urbandale for their second competition of the year. They placed third in the class 2A competition. Only West Marshall and Eddyville-Blakesburg-Fremont placed ahead of them with scores of 74.40 and 75.60 out of 100. This was the Mustangs' last competition before state.
The band earned a score of 67.60 out of 100.
Band director Mr. Dupuis said, " I think color guard and pit were kind of the heroes of the show. Their hard work and extra time they had been putting into the show really showed off on Saturday. Some things that we need to work on as a band are our marching fundamentals, hitting with our heel, stepping off together. We need to work on our horizontal marching and our sound during movement. This week we are going to try and lock in on the beginning of part one, and we are just going to continue tweaking the show and trying to maintain the tempo throughout the song. "
Once the band was done marching they were treated to a trip to the Jordan Creek Mall. The band also stayed to watch all of the 4A schools. The band performs next for homecoming tomorrow, Oct. 5 during halftime and for the State marching band contest in Pella on Saturday, Oct. 14.

Do I need to load this into a UITableView then somehow remove the background of the table, so it appears as just text, or is there a different method I can use to get this list as just text?
Thanks.

A: I think you need to better define what "as a list" means to you. You could construct a multiline string containing those values and disposing in a UILabel or UITextField but I can't tell if that would make sense for your data and your desired UI.
How many scores do you have? Will they all fit on the screen at one? Do you need to be able to scroll the list? Do you want to be able to tap on the scores? Copy them? Format them differently?
You certainly could also create a table view with a tranparent background on the table and it's cells. Just be aware that transparent cells are more expensive to render and will not scroll as smoothly as opaque cells.

MCM Comicon News and Anime Review Roundup

Birmingham MCM Comicon (or is it Expo?) News
Conventions already? This weekend saw the annual anime convention juggernaut begin to pick up speed with Birmingham first on the itinerary. It was only Manga Entertainment who had a panel for announcements at this time (You can see the previous week's Review Roundups for MVM's big news of the spring), and everyone was glued to the Anime UK News Twitter feed for info. So it's cut, paste and comment time...
The biggest surprise and quite big news too was that Manga have the One Piece movies. They're bringing out Strong World on DVD and Blu-ray this June, which is less of a surprise. What is a shock is that they have movies 1-9 as well. So far, Funimation only have movie 8, and consequently that is the only film that will get a dub and sub release in the UK. Movies 1-7 and 9 will be released as subtitle only, and all nine movies on DVD only. Still, the One Piece movies ahead of the US is something to crow about.
Less of a surprise but good news nevertheless is the announcement of the most recent Ghost in the Shell feature series, Ghost in the Shell Arise. To date, Funimation have only released the first two movies as Japanese subtitle only imports. They are yet to create a dub for the US domestic release, so you can guess that Manga's release won't be for quite a while yet.
They are also releasing the original Ghost in the Shell movie on Blu-ray, steelbook version. This isn't the Ghost in the Shell 2.0 Lucased version which Manga released on Blu-ray previously, and hopefully it's based on the more recent Japanese Blu-ray release, not the interlaced horrid version of the original movie that was added as a bonus on 2.0. The original movie really does need some HD love.
There was clarification on the Attack on Titan release (now not a steelbook) which actually muddies matters a little more.
Attack on Titan Part 1 will be coming to DVD, Blu-ray and as a Blu-ray Deluxe Collector's Edition package on 15th September. Part 1 will include episodes 1-12 of the series.
The Blu-ray Deluxe Collector's Edition version will have:
-Episodes 1-12 over 2 Blu-ray discs.
-A bonus DVD disc containing over 100 minutes of bonus material.
- A 24-page booklet.
- A box cover that will be able to house both Part 1 and Part 2 when released.
Surely the Blu-ray will have extras, especially if you're using the US masters which at this time are listed as Region AB. So what's going to be on the bonus DVD? Or are you stripping the extras from the Blu-rays, mastering your own, and then sticking the extras on the DVD? Fans are confused...
Another Shinichiro Watanabe and Yoko Kanno collaboration is imminent
Shinichiro Watanabe's presence in the West has exploded in recent years, after a somewhat lengthy gap following Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo. He returned with Yoko Kanno on soundtrack duties with the sublime Kids on the Slope, and right now you can watch the epic Space Dandy series being simulcast online (Incidentally, Season 2 of Space Dandy has just been confirmed for UK streaming by Anime Limited and Wakanim this July) . Coming this July, and once again reuniting Watanabe with Yoko Kanno is Zankyo no Terror, or Resonance of Terror, although the English name on the advertising materials is Terror in Tokyo. I'm so excited I can't even elaborate beyond that, except to say that I've already started putting money aside for the Blu-rays. Here's the news from Anime News Network.
Just the one anime review for you this week, but it's a big one, the UK Blu-ray debut of Durarara!!, which also happens to the UK debut of its dub. It's a fantastic show which I have waxed lyrical about before. It's from the creative mind behind Baccano!, a gripping story set in modern day Ikebukuro, with a similar approach to narrative, and a very engaging, character focused story. It's also got a motorbike courier who's looking for her missing head. Click on the review to read more, as a Review Roundup is too small a platform to do its wild story justice.
All the Anime release Durarara!! on Blu-ray today. They'll be releasing a DVD version of it, also with the dub in May.


Thoracic surgeons lead the initiative. You establish best practices and protocols, based on data and experience. The patient stays within your care and within your control.
Scenario 1: Administration leads the initiative. They interpret ERAS and institute mandatory processes and protocols for patients recovering after thoracic surgery.
Scenario 2: Nurses lead the initiative. They determine how your patients will recover (and what kinds of outcomes they'll have) and create guidelines for the rest of the care team.
Scenario 3: Thoracic surgeons lead the initiative. You establish best practices and protocols, based on data and experience. The patient stays within your care and within your control.
New protocols are creating change in thoracic surgery, which could dramatically impact your institution. In your efforts to support the best health for your patients and your practice, your best strategy is Scenario3. By leading the initiative, you have the most control over how care is delivered and how your patients recover.
Inclusion of a perioperative care program as part of an overall surgical program provides the best possible outcomes for patients.
1. Use one chest drain (not two).
While this has not been shown to impact drainage or length of stay, using one chest drain enables earlier mobilization and reduces postoperative pain.3 Make this part of your protocol now to help you stay ahead of the curve.
2. Make 450 mL/day the threshold for removal.
3. Use a portable drainage system to support early patient mobilization.
ERAS protocols have been shown to reduce complications and Increase early discharge rates.
Reduce complication rates (6.6% vs 35%).
Mobilizing patients sooner helps prevent many issues and streamlines recovery. Exploring strategies that promote mobilization, such as choosing drains that are portable, lightweight, and/or rechargeable, can be a key step.
4. Use a digital drain system.
The standard practice of "eyeballing the drainage canister" isn't accurate enough for new ERAS protocols.4 Specific drainage thresholds require precise measurements.
Choosing a drain that uses a digital drain system like Thopaz+ will make it easier on your team and improve accuracy. A digital system can also improve tracking, monitoring during rehabilitation, and overall adherence.
Successful surgery starts with successful preparation. The same principle applies to managing guidelines for enhanced recovery after surgery.
Now is the time to manage your institution's approach to new protocols by making sure that patient recovery stays in the hands of the thoracic surgeon.

Roaring Readers started in 2009 with Katzy and CJ Nager coming to Kinard Elementary. They wanted to start a literacy program for our young students and we planned a book presentation program for our second graders with the Lions Club. That comprised about 60 students and the books were given to the students three times a year. The kids loved the books and having the Lions visit became a celebration!
Since its inception, the Lions Club Roaring Readers now serves five grade levels and over 350 children here at Kinard. Each year the Lions have generously supported the growing need for funding and more books;. With Katzy's financial wizardry, she has been able to purchase over 4,000 books for Kinard students through 2016.
This year the program was expanded to another Clover elementary school, Bethany Elementary, and they too have started with the second graders there. One of the side benefits of having the River Hills/Lake Wylie Lions Club is the Lions' participation in other aspects of the children's education. We have guest readers, lunch buddies and mentors who come to Kinard from the Lions and they are truly welcome celebrities each time they show up. We would love to have even more!


New Orleans Saints defensive tackle David Onyemata was recently cited for possession of marijuana, according to The New Orleans Advocate's Nick Underhill and Ramon Antonio Vargas.
Per the report, Jefferson Parish (La.) prosecutors are unsure if they will formally charge Onyemata, a fourth round pick of the Saints back in 2016 out of the University of Manitoba.
The Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office began investigating a package that was seized by United States Customs & Border Protection personnel up in Buffalo, New York, back on January 28th, and ultimately obtained a search warrant for Onyemata's apartment on the following day, January 29th.
Deputies reportedly seized three ounces of marijuana, cannabis oil, marijuana edibles, and hemp powder from the search.
Onyemata is entering the final year of his rookie contract and this could seriously impede his negotiations with the Saints on a new deal.
Dez Bryants Season Could be Over!
In April of 2010, the Dallas Cowboys held the 24th overall pick in the first round of the NFL Draft drafted Dez Bryant from Oklahoma State University.
For the next seven seasons, he would be the key player at wide receiver for both Tony Romo and Dak Prescott.
On April 13, 2018, almost to the day of him being drafted was cut by the Dallas Cowboys. He is now a free agent player. Fast forward seven months and on November 7, 2018, Bryant and the New Orleans Saints reached an agreement for the next year.
In his second practice with the Saints, the talented receiver was turning on a route and possibly suffered a severe injury that could place him on IR for the remainder of the 2018 season.
Dez Bryant is expected to get multiple tests today according to NFL Network sources.

Laois Transition Year entrepreneur Ellen McWey a national finalist
Lynda Kiernan
lynda.kiernan@leinsterexpress.ie
Ellen McWey from Heywood CS, finalist in the Richard Burke TY Personified Awards.
A student who excelled in her Transition Year in Laois was nationally honoured by being chosen as a finalist in a prestigious competition recently.
Ellen McWey is a 5th year student at Heywood Community School.
She was stunned to hear she was selected as one of just eight national finalists.
"I still don't even know who nominated me. I was shocked, I couldn't believe it," she said.
The new The Richard Burke TY Personified Award 2017 is named after the founder of the Transition Year programme, to honour students who best represent its mission, and proactively fulfilled their own potential.
"The fact that a student from our school was considered one of the best out of thousands of Transition Year students is a huge honour," said principal Philip Bowe.
Ellen had thrown herself enthusiatically and skillfully into the TY curriculum.
She was managing director and sales and marketing manager of her TY Mini-Company, SenseAbility Sensory Blankets, with her team selected to represent Laois at the Young Entrepreneur Awards, and their product now on general sale.
She also participated in Young Social Innovators with 'Nascadh le Cheile', developed with her class, and joined the school bank and the debating team.
Ellen advised students to embrace Transition Year.
"Get involved as much as possible, be it in a school musical, a new sport, Junk Kouture, science fairs, Gaisce, YSI or the Student Enterprise Awards. The year really is what you make it because you are given such independence," she said.
The awards were organised by QQI with Transition Year Ireland. The 2017 final was held at the TYI Expo in Punchestown in September.

We can do nothing, including taking risks, if fear is our overriding emotion. Fear is paralyzing and certainly, there are many of us who write that feel fear around the edges of our egos and emotions as we put pen to paper, share our work with others, send a letter to an agent, speak with a publisher or, even vaguely consider self-publishing our own work.
Moving through our fears is the only way to the other side where we can step fully forward making choices true to who we are.
Many years ago, on Sunday afternoons when living in Maryland, I would pack up my two young daughters and, along with my guitar, we would visit with the very elderly in a nearby long-term care facility. Although these senior folks could no longer carry on conversations regarding the present, they could remember the words to the old hymns, singing along as I strummed my guitar and my small girls dispensed hugs all around.
I continued these weekly visits over several years becoming familiar with the relatives of these precious people and much about the lives they had lived. I became especially close to a woman of 80 years named Calle. Fragile of body, but sharp of mind, displaying a caustic wit and a no-nonsense approach to all of life, she was the last person whom we visited on those Sundays. Calle was not especially social and did not attend the hymn singing as she was still living in the present and very conversive. All her friends had passed on and her two sons lived quite a distance away, seldom visiting their mother. We became fast friends.
She was never afraid to pursue excellence, never afraid to take risks.
Calle thought me a fine young woman but extremely meek. She persisted in challenging me to think about my own future. What were my dreams and aspirations in addition to being a mother? I told her I loved playing music, writing songs, poetry, and stories. And that because I stuttered, I wanted to someday go to college and become a Speech-Language Pathologist. She told me that "someday was here" and I was to plot a plan for how my future dreams were to be accomplished. I told her I was afraid. Afraid my husband would object to my going to university, afraid I would be seen as a negligent mother, afraid I wasn't intelligent enough, afraid my music and writing would be found wanting by everyone – especially me. With a great sigh, Calle asked me what I was NOT afraid of and I should start there.
Can you identify your fears related to your writing?
Where, as a writer, does your confidence lie?
Do you aspire to self-publish your stories, poems, novel, memoir, non-fiction – whatever you are wanting to publish?
It is important first to recognize all your strengths and make them work for you.
If you have entertained the thought that you might want to self-publish, I am here to tell you it is not rocket science (although I'm sure you could do that as well). If you have done all the hard work of research, writing, and editing and are ready to send your work out into the world, then you can certainly self-publish. Especially if you have attempted over some time to find an agent and/or publisher and there has been no forward movement. Or if you have spoken with other self-published writers, some of whom were published with a publishing house and later decided to self-publish, or if you feel strongly that you want to retain control of and manage your work from the beginning and thinking self-publishing is best for your vision.
So, if you are considering the option of self-publishing your work, walk through the fear because, truly, it is not the difficult, frightening process some would lead writers to believe. The next article in this series will look at where to begin and how to proceed when you decide to publish your own work. Remember, "keep falling in love with the potential of what you are doing" and move you and your work forward without fear.

While Nepal is not part of India, their food has many Indian influences. So my friends and I often crave for some good Indian food here in sg. Recently, we've been frequenting Brinda's at bukit merah (because it's near our workplace) , a no frills Indian fast food place. They categorize dishes like roti prata, chapati and thosai under fast food. While they are passable, they are not exactly fantastic and would start tasting less palatable as they cooled.
Instead of all these, I recommend you to step deeper into the place, and go into the mini restaurant space at the back which serves a different menu.
Unfortunately when we went yesterday, the mini restaurant space was being booked for a party, so we had to have no frills dining outside. Luckily, we could still order from the restaurant menu but they didn't serve us complimentary papadum or have waiters helping us.
This vegetable curry contained green peas and button mushrooms. One of my friends does not like frozen peas so she carefully spat every single one of them out while eating the curry. Talk about picky 😛 The curry is sweeter, probably because of the vegetables and less spicy as compared to the former.
I'll be going hong kong next week for a short hiatus. Does anyone have any good local eats to recommend?

What we learned from the Hall of Fame Game
Published: Aug 04, 2013 at 04:19 PM
CANTON, Ohio -- It feels like a very long time ago I was walking out of the Superdome in a Ravens-induced haze. Six months and one day later, football began anew in Ohio Sunday night.
The Hall of Fame Game is the anti-Super Bowl: Quaint and sleepy. It's a bite-sized appetizer for a starving populace. The atmosphere before the game is pure football, reminiscent of a massive high school matchup. The game never lives up to the excitement, but we can draw a few takeaways from the Dallas Cowboys' 24-20 win over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday night.
Miami's left tackle concerns only grew during the game. Starting left tackle Jonathan Martin, who has struggled throughout camp, gave up pressure during his brief stint on the field. It was impossible to evaluate Ryan Tannehill because pressure came so quickly. (Perhaps he was too distracted by his No. 1 ranking in our "Making the Leap" series.)
Just after Martin and Tannehill came out of the game in the first quarter, Martin's replacement, Dallas Thomas, whiffed on a block. Backup quarterback Matt Moore promptly was hammered. Thomas proceeded to get dominated all night by Cowboys backup George Selvie. Thomas is a guard trying to play tackle. This is a story to keep an eye on.
No. 3 overall pick Dion Jordan didn't play much off the bench, primarily lining up in third-down situations for the Dolphins. He did pick up a quick quarterback pressure and a couple of tackles in limited work. The Dolphins are bringing Jordan along slowly.
The Cowboys' defense often was out of position. This isn't a surprise; it was their first game under new defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin.
Dallas' no-name running back depth had a great night. Cowboys third-string running back Phillip Tanner, who has looked good in the preseason before, was sensational breaking tackles on the way to 59 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries. The Cowboys like his downhill running. No. 2 running back Lance Dunbar also looked good early in spot duty. Rookie Joseph Randle, drafted in the fifth round, is fourth on the depth chart and also played well in the second half.
This remains an open competition, and an important one considering DeMarco Murray's history. They should all make the team.
Lamar Miller fumbled on an exchange with Tannehill on the Dolphins' first offensive snap. (The fumble oddly was charged to Tannehill.) Before his hype train was derailed, Miller quickly made amends with great burst on his next two runs for 21 yards.

Most printers cannot use zero margins.
4 How Can I Get to the Blank Fax Coversheet Within Microsoft Word?
When you think of margins, it might bring to mind how a business document is laid out in your word processor; but margins are also important when you send a fax to a colleague or client. Properly set, margins prevent clipping by page borders, ensuring that the recipient will be able to read your faxed content. Microsoft Fax doesn't have controls for adjusting margins, but you can use tables and text boxes in Microsoft Word to quickly create them. An added benefit of using one of these tools to add margins is that you can also create attractive borders for your faxed content.
Create a new Word document. Then, click the "Table" button on the Insert tab. Click the top left square to insert a single-cell table into the document. Copy the content you want to fax from the application in which it currently resides and paste it into the cell in Word.
Click and drag the cell's left and right borders to adjust the margins for the fax.
Click the "Borders" button on the Design tab to display the Border and Shading dialog box. Click the "Borders" tab to see options for outlining the table. Click the "None" button under the Setting heading if you don't want a line separating your margins from the content of the fax. Click "Box" to surround all four sides with a border.
Click the "Down Arrow" on the Width control, and then click the width you want for the border. Click "OK" to finalize the table cell's border.
Click the "Select" button on the Layout tab, then click the "Select Table" command. Copy this selection to the clipboard.
Create a new fax in Microsoft Fax and paste the clipboard contents into the fax. The table cell's borders form the margins of your fax.
Create a new Word document and paste your fax content into it. Press "Ctrl-A" to select the content, then click the "Text Box" button from the Insert tab. Click the "Draw Text Box" command to create a text box that surrounds your content.
Right-click the text box, then click "Format" to display controls for formatting the text box. Click the "Line Style" category; then click the arrow controls on the Width control until the border of the text box is the desired thickness.
Click the "Text Box" category and enter values in the "Left" and "Right" controls under the Internal Margins heading. This action sets the margins for the text box.
Close the Format dialog box, and then copy the text box to the clipboard. Create a new fax in Microsoft Fax. Paste your clipboard contents into the fax.
Information in this article applies to Microsoft Fax 6.1 and Microsoft Word 2010. It may vary slightly or significantly with other versions or products.

Superstar Type And Fashion Pattern Coverage
Aug 13, 2021 coverage, fashion, pattern, superstar
Jennifer Lopez, above, bared her well-known curves in a customized Atelier Versace illusion gown. And Kim Kardashian West nearly seemed modest in comparison in her sheer Roberto Cavalli gown, as a result of no one's getting bare with out KKW becoming a member of in. Some share of that price drop could be attributed to a gradual enhance within the supply of lower-quality secondhand clothing, as charities race to process more clothes quicker. "The used-clothing industry is going via a particularly difficult period each here in the U.K. and globally," Alan Wheeler, director of the Textile Recycling Association in the U.K., told Sourcing Journal in April. But what everybody agrees on is that Africans purchase cast-off clothes from the us as a end result of they see it as top quality and good value.
Overall, clothes have been getting cheaper for many years, ever since apparel manufacturing started transferring to creating countries, where production prices are considerably lower. In the U.S., the world's largest apparel market, 97.5 percent of clothes purchased is now imported, in accordance with the American Apparel & Footwear Association. As a outcome, employment of fashion designers within the attire manufacturing industry is anticipated to decline over the projections decade. Throughout the design process, fashion designers should be capable of communicate successfully. For example, they could have to instruct sewers about garment building. Clothing designers create and assist produce men's, women's, and children's attire, together with informal wear, suits, sportswear, evening put on, outerwear, maternity clothing, and intimate apparel.
Historical Past And Etymology For Fashion
Although the fashion business developed first in Europe and America, as of 2017, it is a global and extremely globalized industry, with clothes often designed in one country, manufactured in one other, and bought worldwide. For example, an American fashion company would possibly supply fabric in China and have the garments manufactured in Vietnam, finished in Italy, and shipped to a warehouse in the United States for distribution to stores internationally.

Do You Really Know Your Eye Care Provider?
Do you really know your eye care provider? A survey was done recently among Americans and the results were astonishing. Most people think that all eye care providers need to have a medical degree. In fact, this is not true. The eye care profession only needs to be board certified. But once again it is not mandatory for the profession to be board certified. However, the eye care doctors, themselves, are trying to lobby for a regulation of some kind that will regulate the eye care industry.
Most Americans do not realize that there are different types of eye care providers and they perform different services. Some are qualified to do certain procedures and prescribe medication and some are not. To help the patients of eye care providers better understand what services the different doctors provide, a web site has been set up so that people can learn about each member of an eye care provider�s team and understand which functions each member is qualified to perform and what training they should have.
There are several different types of eye care providers and not every type of eye care doctor can give the same type of care. Opticians specifically perform the function of fitting people for contact lenses and eyeglasses. They do not have a medical degree and can not perform surgeries or prescribe medication. Optometrists can look at the eye to determine weather there are problems with vision or abnormalities in the eye. They can actually write the prescriptions for reading glasses and contact lenses, as well as prescribe some medications.
The best eye care provider to have would be an ophthalmologist. This type of eye care provider has a medical degree and can perform all duties related to eye care including eye exams, eye surgeries, and prescribing medications. As you can see it is important to do some research to find out exactly the kind of training that your eye care provider has and whether or not he or she can perform all medical duties. The knowledge of the total eye care professional could make the difference between treating an infection or losing your vision.
It is amazing to realize that the many people who wear contact lenses and glasses today are so ill-informed about eye care providers. Hopefully, consumers will educate themselves by using the tools and web sites that have been made available for them to find the eye care provider that is right for them.


I just read about the idea that Josh from Molli Sparkles has come up with to help comfort those affected by the tragedy in Sydney, (which occurred near where he works). He's inviting the online community to come together to donate their time, money, or quilt blocks so that he and his fellow Glitterati in Australia can make at least 6 quilts for family members consisting of about 1080 blocks plus materials for batting, backing and quilting.
I made a small paypal donation to help defray the cost of materials; then I got to thinking – how could I contribute more?
So I decided to make you guys this offer: from now through Sunday, December 21st, I'll donate 50% of the sales of all my PDF patterns to the cause. (Of course, you are also welcome to donate directly or help out in the other ways stated on Josh's blog).
I currently only have 5 patterns for sale, so it may not make a big dent, but every little bit helps, right?
It sickens me when I hear of such tragedies in the world, but it does give me comfort when I see quilters band together to offer love and support where they can.
Sorry, it posted before I was done. I was shocked and horrified that something like this would happen in our peaceful little city. I've seen very little in the way of initiatives to help the victims and their families. Everyone is just posting pictures from their Martin Place office windows. I'd love to get involved, and will definitely look in to this.
Thank you so much. Being an Aussie it is comforting to know that the quilting community is so generous. It isn't just the money or quilt blocks donated to a cause, any cause, but the fact people care & are so willing to offer support.
I agree! I feel exactly the same way. It's heart-warming to know that people care.
Thank you, Christa, for letting us know about this effort. Your big heart will help bring comfort to those family members after this devastating tragedy.
Thank you, Christa, for spreading the word about what they are doing. I was just sick when I heard about the Sydney shootings. I know there were six children left behind by the two who died, and that others were injured, and I'm so glad we can help them, as they have so often helped us.

Inside the Emirates Suite at the US Open
Luxury suites inside Arthur Ashe Stadium on the grounds of the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Flushing, New York, are sold on a session-by-session basis and can cost anywhere from $15,000 to $120,000. Located at center court, the Emirates suite provides one of the most coveted views.
Upon entrance, guests are welcomed by a pair of Cabin Crew members as if they were boarding an Emirates flight. While entrants aren't departing JFK or LaGuardia airports for Dubai, they are taken on a journey similar to that of an Emirates passenger.
Entrants to the invite-only hospitality suite are offered cold towels and panama hats to combat the sun's rays while watching some of tennis's top players take the main court of the annual two-week Grand Slam event. From there, the suite offers a comforting and luxurious space overlooking center court.
The Emirates suite spans suites 133-136 inside Arthur Ashe Stadium
"As Emirates Cabin Crew members, we make sure to bring the premium and hospitable product and service that we're known for on board to the US Open grounds and here in the Emirates suite," Cabin Crew member Dalia Fawzy says. "I can say with confidence that the suite captures the details and elements that we're known for."
The Emirates suite, which holds up to 80 people, underwent a redesign and renovation in 2015 which helped open up the space. Premium food and beverage are on offer to guests with a gourmet buffet including tuna tartare, seared salmon and an assortment of fresh salads. The Emirates suite is also the only space to have a private sushi chef throughout the entire US Open. Tasty treats including red velvet cake, peach cobbler and macarons are offered for dessert. In celebration of its continued relationship with Moët Hennessy, Emirates also features private champagne tastings paired with canapes.
Guests can remain inside the air-conditioned suite to watch the action while avoiding the heat or enjoy the match in the open air on plush seats with prime central views. No need to strain your neck turning your head side to side during volleys from this vantage point.
View from the Emirates suite seats
Not only are guests treated to high-end hospitality and VIP views, they can also enjoy celebrity sightings, including Joe Jonas, Priyanka Chopra, Aziz Ansari, Sophie Turner, Pierce Brosnan and more.
Watching the US Open from the Emirates suite is a one-of-a-kind experience. Some lucky fans at the 2018 tournament even had their seats upgraded so they could live the suite life.
"Each of us are so lucky to be here. We consider ourselves a big part of the overall Emirates experience, so being able to represent such a well-known and respected brand in the United States is a huge honor and one that we will absolutely never forget," Fawzy says. "The US Open is also one of the biggest sporting events that draws in and connects people from all over the world – that's something that, as crew, we can really relate to."

TL;DR – At times hilarious, at times incredible farcical, and at times a deeply moving look at the trials of friendship.
For a long time, there has been this growing bubble of particular dry absurdist comedy coming out of New Zealand. You see it in the work of Taika Waititi, Jemaine Clement, Bret McKenzie, Rhys Darby, Rachel House, and also some of Peter Jackson's early films. These are films that mix comedy and emotional understanding in equal measures. Whenever one of these movies like Hunt for the Wilderpeople (see review) or Hibiscus & Ruthless (see review) make it across the ditch I always really look forward to seeing it. Well, today we get the chance to look at a new entry into this wonderful genre The Breaker Upperers, from the comedic team of Madeleine Sami and Jackie van Beek.

But now the tree is gone.
that weighed more than all its years.
and now you are far away.
to remind me of you.
Then she played Maud Gonne.
the next person for her to be.
crouch behind the shield of a laugh.
that left nothing else inside her.
and no identification papers in her pockets.
Not at this stage of life.
"Hello," she said to a stranger's answering machine.
"This is ______. I'll take the part."
trying to make a go of it.
And her life came to me.
from the spotlights of a prison camp.
after the cigarette was gone.
We lived on the same floor.
And then, there was nothing more to say.
and you don't talk to strangers.
Still, I got to know her well.
Of course, there wasn't much to go on.
And then, one day, I heard the yelling.
crawl out from beneath the injustice.
it didn't need to be.
it seems she'd finally got a job.
so that children wouldn't fall out.
from looking like a prison.
And then came the song: her final friend.
The last chapter in our story.
You got to do what you should…"
the volume suddenly turned up.
It felt like she was calling out to me.
But, of course, she wasn't.
She was calling out to God.
become a satellite of her drama.
to come to me through the wall.
finally have a happy ending?
Other times, it didn't look good.
But then you make me crawl…"
No, not good at all.
When all you got is hurt…"
I couldn't even handle mine.
And so I just kept listening.
to give away their meaning.
to lay beside the wall.
The song hadn't been enough.
She couldn't pay the rent.
who could put them back together.
No more possibility of a happy ending.
And I wonder about her, now.
that is trying to hide her life.
by flying through the air.
by swimming through the water.
by running across the land.
by crawling through the mud.
you end up losing your own way.
who does not accept it.
corpses through the holy gates.
Everywhere he has given you signs.
and the eyes of orphans.
but not everything in them is equal.
to take the rocks, instead.
the people had not yet reached Him.
after the walls fell down.
dig his way through the earth?
rained down upon the earth.
than the way to Him.
"I will not love you unless…"
Let them take their own road.
I couldn't get the horses.
the wings we needed to fly away.
before they got to me.
The ones who had their own horses.
to ride away on them.
and carrying us on the backs of their escape.
a whole world will end.
searching for a memory to feed them.
And I was all alone.
saying things which everybody overhears.
saying, "Hurry! Hurry! Before it's too late!"
And I ran, bursting from my desperation.
turned against their own hearts.
But I didn't have the strength.
I just stayed there on the ground.
laying just beyond me in the night.
the pursuit was too fast.
against the soldiers, on horseback.
And I thought, again, of the beautiful horse herd.
though it never stood a chance.
And then I stopped forever.
"Please, save my people," was my last prayer.
I only move in dreams.
and part of it you got wrong.
and that is what matters.
that the ghosts can live in.
Brothers - get the horses!
His voice comes from me!
It is not too late, even now!
but today I see that it is not.
or says Yes to a fool.
in this world you've made?
But it is not the past.
Trying to be great again.
but who he could not find.
Please let love come first.
not by wiping the slate clean.
so that they may become my friends.
by blowing down the walls.
just to "get your man."
What kind of birth was that?
But I do have some questions.
and steps back from the "place of death"?
for the rest of her life?
too early in the game?
will you be there to pull her out from the disaster?
will you be there to pick her out from the waters?
in the blackness of blame.
are dying all around you?
Where are your hymns, now, and your Bibles?
Where are your picket lines?
hoisted above the death to be.
filled with millions who want to live?
And I want to make you see that.
yourself from killing, from hating, and forgetting?
and weapons pointing at each other's hearts?
Is it too late to go back?
that say they never met?
instead of killed each other?
about a drop of poison.
and you would listen to me.
wouldn't it all seem foolish?
Let it seem foolish today.
Every life is holy ground.
Every soul's a burning bush.
And I don't have to get up.
And I don't have to sit down.
or stay on the ground.
not me trying to be you.
Love me, and you'll see.
foolishness, and let me look in.
And then, I'll laugh, too.
you almost made me be.
towards the thought of the sea.
think you can begin to hear the waves.
no, there it is again!

Hans Christopher Georg Friederich Hedemann (1792-1859) fue un oficial danés que se convirtió en teniente general del ejército danés.

Biografía
Hedemann ingresó en el Cuerpo de Cadetes danés antes de 1803. En 1808 alcanzó el servicio sénior como enseña, en 1809 pasó a ser teniente y teniente primero, y en 1819 Jefe de Estado Mayor. En 1811 se unió al 1º Regimiento de Infantería de Jutlandia, donde fue nombrado capitán en 1820. En 1832 alcanzó la antigüedad de mayor y finalmente fue promovido a mayor en 1836. Durante la reorganización del ejército en 1842 se convirtió en teniente coronel y comandante del 10º batallón, en 1846 comandante del 1º Cuerpo de Cazadores y comandante del Castillo de Copenhague. En el nuevo año de 1847 se le dio el carácter de coronel.

Cuando estalló la Primera Guerra de Schleswig en la primavera de 1848, el Ministro de Guerra Anton Frederik Tscherning nombró al relativamente joven coronel general y poco después mayor general. Se le dio el mando supremo del Ejército danés, con el General Frederik Læssøe sirviendo como jefe de estado mayor. Hedemann y Læssøe tenían una buena relación, aunque Hedemann a menudo tomaba decisiones en base a la situación y sin consultar ni a Læssøe ni a Tscherning. Este enfoque se demostró en las batallas de Bov y Schleswig el 9 y 23 de abril. La relación de Hedemann con el Ministro de Guerra Tscherning era problemática, ya que a este le resultó difícil darle a Hedemann un amplio margen para tomar decisiones.

Después de la batalla de Schleswig y de la derrota en la batalla en las cercanías de Oeversee, Tscherning envió al Coronel al Estado Mayor y más tarde el Ministro de Guerra Christian Frederik von Hansen al Alto Mando del Ejército, con la autoridad de intervenir hasta lo que fuera necesario si el mando del ejército no actuaba en la dirección marcada por Tscherning. Hansen inicialmente no vio razón para intervenir y subsiguientemente asumió el mando de la parte del Ejército danés que había regresado a Alsen. A Hedemann se le ordenó tomar el mando en Fionia y para hacerse cargo de las partes del ejército desembarcadas. Como estas partes del ejército eran mucho menores, Hedemann protestó contra esta regulación y amenazó con dimitir. En mayo el Alto Mando del Ejército y el Ministro de Guerra acordaron tomar la ofensiva de nuevo con las tropas de Als y atacar la península de Sundewitt, que estaba ocupada por los alemanes. Antes de eso, Tscherning envió a su ayudante Johannes Harbou al cuartel general del ejército, pero no intervino en los preparativos del ataque. Como resultado, las luchas de Nybøl el 28 de mayo y de Dybbøl el 5 de junio tuvieron éxito para los daneses.

Hedemann fue finalmente apartado del Alto Mando del Ejército el 16 de julio. No se sabe si esto se debió a la intervención de Harbou o al inicio del alto el fuego. Como resultado, Hedemann fue a Copenhague para asumir la presidencia de un comité asesor del Ministerio de Guerra. Al mismo tiempo fue de nuevo comandante de la ciudadela. Hedemann no superó esta degradación, aunque el rey lo nombró Chambelán y en 1853 Caballero de la Orden de Dannebrog.

El incremento en la debilidad de la vista causó que Hedemann solicitara su renuncia en 1854. Hedemann murió en Copenhague en 1859, fue enterrado en el cementerio de la guarnición, donde se ha conservado su tumba con su retrato en un medallón.

Familia
Hedemann fue el padre del posterior general danés Johan Hedemann (1825-1901), que ya había servido a las órdenes de su padre en las batallas en Nybøl y Dybbøl, y del posterior general y político Marius Hedemann (1836-1903).

Keith Pattison is a photographer based in Newcastle, working mainly for theatre companies including RSC, Almeida, Bill Kenwright and West Yorkshire Playhouse. Last year he published a book of photographs of the 1984-85 Miners' Strike (NO REDEMPTION) with the author David Peace, along with an exhibition which toured nationally. He is currently working on a project photographing the faces of post industrial communities.
In February this year, photographer Keith Pattison was invited by councillor Ann Schofield and the librarians at Cruddas Park library to take photographs of people visiting the library. Over the course of a week, he photographed a variety of library users demonstrating the many ways in which they use the service. Those photographed either held up the books they had borrowed or a card on which they had written the purpose of their visit. These photographs have now been published in faceBOOK, a collection celebrating the role of Cruddas Park library in the community.
We are very grateful to Keith for allowing us to reproduce a selection of the photographs here. You can view the complete book on Keith's website.

Purism Launches Librem 14 Security-Focused Linux Laptop
The 14-inch laptop runs PureOS, uses a 10th-gen Core i7, and can be pre-ordered for $1,199.

I've been working at PCMag since November 2016, covering all areas of technology and video game news. Before that I spent nearly 15 years working at Geek.com as a writer and editor. I also spent the first six years after leaving university as a professional game designer working with Disney, Games Workshop, 20th Century Fox, and Vivendi.

If you're not a fan of Windows 10 or Apple's decision to transition to ARM-based laptops has you less than excited, Purism has a laptop you may want to consider instead.
Purism is a company set up to produce "freedom respecting, privacy protecting, and security focused products," and its latest product(Opens in a new window) to deliver on that promise is the Librem 14(Opens in a new window) laptop. Launched this week, the Librem 14 builds on the previous success of the Librem 13 by using a 14-inch 1080p IPS panel, but managing to fit it into the same footprint of the Librem 13 chassis thanks to smaller bezels.
The Librem 14 base configuration includes a six-core (12 threads) Intel Core i7-10710U, 8GB of RAM, and a 250GB SATA M.2 SSD. It runs PureOS(Opens in a new window), a version of Linux focused on keeping you and your information secure via sandboxed apps, HTTPS everywhere, ad blocking and tracking protection by default, plus free and open-source software. In terms of connectivity, there are USB 3.1 Type A and USB 3.1 Type-C ports, HDMI, gigabit Ethernet, 3.5mm audio jack, and a memory card reader.
One of the major selling points of Purism laptops is its unique hardware kill switches, which physically disconnect the camera, mic, wireless, and Bluetooth connections when required. Even the BIOS is open source and the laptop uses PureBoot(Opens in a new window) to secure the boot process (no Secure Boot here) and allow a user to self-sign their own operating system. There's also support for the LibremKey(Opens in a new window), which is a USB security token offering encryption, key management, and easy tamper detection.

The base price is $1,119(Opens in a new window), but that includes an early bird discount of $300. It's possible to increase the RAM up to 32GB, add a second storage drive, and push the storage size up to a maximum of 4TB. You can also add a privacy screen for an extra $29. If you max out the specs, the price goes north of $3,000, but then you're getting quite the powerhouse in return. Pre-orders are expected to ship in Q4 2020.

I saw a surgeon in New York in reference to a bump that I have on both of my feet. He informed me that they are not bunions but they are right around my big toe joints. Is it still possible to have both of the bumps removed and have my insurance cover it?
It is possible to have a variety of bumps around the big toe joint that are confused with a bunion. A bunion, however, is a subluxation of the big toe joint and the most common reason for a bump at the big toe area. The second most common reason for a bump at the big toe joint is arthritis. Arthritic bone spurs can develop extremely large in this area and can be quite painful. The big toe joint can also become stiff, a condition called hallux limitus or hallux rigidus. Women who wear high heels find that these bumps can interfere with ability to get into heels altogether.
The surgery most commonly involved shaving the bone spurs (a procedure called Cheilectomy). This is an minor surgery, which I perform as same day ambulatory surgery here in New York. Patients are walking immediately after surgery. I find this particular surgery to be one of the more satisfying surgery I perform in my private practice as patients recovery extremely quick and the pain relief is usually dramatic. This type of surgery is commonly covered by most insurance plans.
