Bush is proposing a pretty radical business structure for these discount cards. I hate to say so, but it’s kinda Clintonesque. If the plan succeeds, it could be used not only for drug benefits but for other privatized Medicare services, too. For now, the administration will tout these cards only to seniors–more than 10 million of them–who have poor or no insurance coverage for prescription drugs. They could be in your hands by next Jan....
No one bore the weight more than Alex Ovechkin. All the goals in the world — and the star forward is at over 600 and counting now — couldn’t take the sting away from the endless cycle of postseason runs that ended far too soon. “It’s so hard to move forward some time,” Washington coach Barry Trotz said. “It’s always thrown in your face everywhere you turn. I know it’s thrown in Ovi’s face everywhere he turns and he’s a great player in this league....
The remark overshadowed Dean’s otherwise thoughtful foreign-policy speech this week and became a lightning rod for other Democrats–and eventually Republicans–if he becomes the nominee. What happens in the next few months could prove Dean prescient if the insurgency in Iraq continues to take American lives, but for now it has refocused the Democratic presidential race on Dean’s meager foreign-policy credentials and his tendency to say impolitic things. Saddam’s capture boosted President George W....
First, a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage will never get through Congress. Even if it does, it will die in the states. There aren’t 38 legislatures ready to turn back the clock on the evolving gay-rights movement. Coming out in favor of the amendment is Bush’s way of reassuring evangelicals he’s one of them. Think of it as the political equivalent of Mel Gibson’s passion play. It rouses the true believers....
“Doug Jensen became a victim of numerous conspiracy theories that were being fed to him over the internet by a number of very clever people, who were uniquely equipped with slight, if any, moral or social consciousness,” Christopher M. Davis, Jensen’s lawyer said, according to court documents filed on Monday and obtained by Newsweek. In January, Jensen was arrested and later charged with obstructing a law officer during a civil disorder; assaulting, resisting or impeding a federal law enforcement officer; entering and remaining; disorderly and disruptive conduct inside a capitol building; violent entry and disorderly conduct; and parading, demonstrating and picketing in a capitol building....
Learn about the role of losing sleep and the subsequent development of visual hallucinations. Find out when they occur, how long it takes for hallucinations to develop, and how to reverse the effects. What Are Hallucinations? A hallucination is the perception of something that is not actually present in the environment. It differs from an illusion, which is the misinterpretation of something that is present.

First some explanation. DARPA, the DoD agency known for developing cutting-edge technology for the military that often benefits all of us (best example: the Internet), jumped into the post-9/11 effort to prevent terrorism with a plan that would, in part, “mine” massive amounts of records, including personal transactions of U.S. citizens. The Orwellian implications proved fatal, and Congress closed down that project (while DARPA itself continues). Still, the project’s supporters have always had some good points to make....
Kuala Lumpur - International Cricket Council’s (ICC) newly appointed chief executive David Richardson on Thursday defended the board’s decision on the controversial Decision Review System (DRS), saying India cannot be forced into accepting the appeals technology. The ICC Board had rejected its chief executives committee (CEC) recommendation of making the DRS mandatory in Tests and ODIs. The powerful Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has been opposing the DRS, saying it is not 100 percent foolproof but the claim has been contradicted by the CEC....

But the fragility of their batting line-up was well-read by the opposition. Then came a shameful defeat in the 2nd Test at Lord’s when the team lost by an innings and 159 runs. When winning the series seemed like a daunting task, India somehow managed to keep the series by registering a 203 runs victory in the third Test at Trent Bridge. India displayed a clinical performance after bidding adieu to Murali Vijay and Kuldeep Yadav....
Whether United can continue to do so as it struggles to emerge from Chapter 11 is less clear. Chairman Glenn Tilton insists that the airline will continue to fly, and there’s no question that keeping service disruption to a minimum is in the best interest of both the carrier and its creditors. “United is clearly going to continue operations–at least in the short term. The last thing United would want to do is alienate its passengers,” says Daniel Kasper, a managing director at the economic consulting firm LECG and author of two books on aviation....

The purpose of the exercise is to identify people who might be carrying the new coronavirus as evidence suggesting losing the sense of smell is a common symptom of the disease. “At Gate 4 Camp Walker today, we conducted random smell testing on personnel coming onto the installation using a new method of delivering—cotton swabs that are handed to each individual and immediately disposed of after testing,” U.S.A.G. Daego announced on the Garrison’s Facebook page....

I am looking for an app or a way to set this up on an Android phone so I could operate that the same way. Any help with this is very much appreciated....
How Are Netflix Accounts Hacked? There are a number of ways through which a cybercriminal can easily access your Netflix account. One of the most popular methods out there is phishing. You’ve probably heard of phishing before, as it’s a worryingly widespread scam that involves the theft of victims’ sensitive data via phony emails and websites. If a scammer were trying to get their hands on your Netflix login information via a phishing scam, they could first send you an email from what seems to be Netflix, asking you to do something associated with your account....
The 2013 Canadian GP saw the end of a dream run for McLaren, with the team failing to score a point for the first time in 64 races since the 2009 Abu Dhabi GP. They are currently placed 6th in the Constructor’s championship with 37 points. The McLaren’s had a poor qualifying session at Montreal, with both the drivers failing to reach Q3. The MP4-28 clearly lacked the fire-power to push it to the final qualifying session....

Switzerland’s Fabian Cancellara of RadioShack won the prestigious Paris-Roubaix Spring Classic for the third time on Sunday. The winner from 2006 and 2010 took the gruelling 254km “Queen of the Classics” race in a sprint climax ahead of Belgian Sep Vanmarcke. “At the end it was like roulette,” reflected Cancellara on the dash for the line which he claimed by the length of a bike. The 32-year-old justified his status among the favourites for this 111th edition....
Also, unlike normal cells that remain in the region where they began, cancer cells have the ability to both invade nearby tissues and spread to distant regions of the body. This article explains how cancer cells develop, some of the ways in which cancer cells differ from normal cells, and why the body may not recognize cancer cells and destroy them as it does other “foreign” cells. Types There are as many types of cancer cells as there are types of cancer....
