What is your take on the communities in Murrieta?

Asked by Demy, Temecula, CA Sun May 11, 2008

I'm looking for a home in either Temecula or Murrieta, I've started focusing more on an area in Murrieta. I saw that there are alot of really nice homes in the Murietta area west of French Valley airport , south of Winchester Rd along Murrieta Hot Springs (until it ends) on the right and left sides of the road. What is an acceptable price for a home in these areas. Do they offer amenities, expensive HOA dues? High taxes? Is this considered a good area? Would it be better to lie here on in Temecula?

Help the community by answering this question:

I lived in Crowne Hill in Temecula, which is a lovely area, but after Pechanga expanded and 79S was expanded to fit all of the new shopping areas, the exit became too congested. I moved to Corona for two years, but it was too hot and smoggy. I moved to Murrieta in 2005 and love my area. I live off Clinton Keith in Paseo Verde. My house backs to the Santa Rosa Plateau and it is cool and breazy. Regading the traffic, the 215/French Valley has much more congestion than the West side. We drive the streets to get to the mall or wineries when there is traffic on 15. If you take the back route, it is usually smooth sailing. I agree that Winchester is a scary exit and never use it. My tax base is 1.1 with no HOA. I paid 600K for my house, but most of the sales are priced in the low 400s and almost all are banked owned. The area is beautiful and well maintained all around the Bear Creek area. Good luck.

HOA depends on the neighborhood you chose. The new one's typically will have one. Currently I live in Temecula and about 2 days out of the week, the offramp to get on the 1-15 S on Winchester can take about 5 minutes especially around 8 o'clock in the morning. If you get there earlier, it is fairly easy to get on.

As for the price of the home, it depends on what you are looking for. One of the downsides of alot of the homes built is that while the master bedrooms are spacious, the extra rooms are tiny that are made to fit a crib or a twin bed and nothing else.

Personally, in the French Valley area, it's like a no-man's land in terms of whether it is Temecula or Murrieta. I think technically it is Murrieta but if you check the school boundries, you will see that some homes are considered to be in the Temecula school district.

Taxes. Once again, it depends on where you live. Where we live, we pay 1.5 but a 3 minute drive up the street, it can be 1.9 or if you go the other way, it's 1.1% .

Do you have a particular development in mind? I might be able to help you out as we just purchased a home here.

I'm located just 1 offramp north of Murrieta in a quaint city called Menifee. I lived in Murrieta several years until I moved to Menifee. If you are looking for a home, prices start in the mid 100s (some great investment and first time buyer opportunities) to about $350K-400K. You can find a beautiful newer home with 4+ bedrooms and 2+ baths in a nice area for around $250K. We have an abundance of both Bank Owned homes and short sales. If you are interested in exploring the growing community of Menifee, please give me a call. I can certainly help with this area or Murrieta.

Hi Demy,

I love Murrieta and own property in LaCresta. It is a community off of Clinton Keith and about 10 miles West. There are many nice homes in Murrieta and many nice amenities that are being built all over! New shopping centers, new restaurants etc.

As far as the taxes, and HOA fees, it all depends on the area. The taxes in LaCresta are very high, but I feel worth it for the area. The HOA fees are low about 75.00 a month, not too bad. There are many areas that do not even have HOA dues. And there are many communities that have great amenities as well, such as Bear Creek.

Temecula is wonderful as well. There are lovely homes all over that area. Like Murrieta, Temecula has many rural areas as well that do contain livestock. So, what I would do, is drive the areas and pick neighborhoods you feel you really like. I would talk to neighbors and ask them how they like living in that particular neighborhood. They certainly will tell you! That is the best way to know if you like an area.
Drive it at different times of the day and night, call the police departments too and find out about crime etc just to be safe.

If I can help you in any way, please let me know. Good luck to you!

Kind regards,

I live off of Winchester Road in the French Valley area. It is not as developed as Murrieta or Temecula. So you will see large land parcels with horses, cows and even llamas. The schools are a part of the Temecula Valley Unified School District and most of them are fairley new and they are slated to build more in the future. Actually most of the homes in the area are less than 10 years old. The French Valley Airport, seems more like a place for people who bought their own planes and love to fly. It is not a commercial airport and I see the planes more than I hear them. They are building the French Valley interchange so it is a little conjested right and we do not have a lot of shops in the area. There seems to be a lot of houses on decent parcels of land and so you do not feel like you can spit on your neighbors house if you happen to spit out of your window, I see a lot of that in California and in Murrieta as well. Some people like the more developed areas, but I tend to like this area. It is slower and not as crowded and the good thing is that I can drive in less than 30 minutes to any place I need to go. They are building more stores in the area so in about 10 years it will resemble Temecula and Murrieta. If you are thinking about the Temecula area, keep in mind that Pechanga was given a nice chunk of land recently, so just make sure the lots you are looking at do not fall under there newly aquired land.

Both areas are nice. However, for me, both have way too much in-city traffic. Seriously, I kick myself anytime "I have to go there". Temecula has the added problem that it really has only 3 off-ramps to the 15 freeway. This means that there are seriously backed up off ramps during peak times, really dangerously at times. Winchester, in particular, backs up over a mile down the freeway at times.

Everything is relative however, if you come from an even busier place, then Temecula could almost seem rural. The area, as a whole, does have every amenity you could need.

Which way are you traveling? North or south? If your commute heads north out of the area also consider Wildomar or even Lake Elsinore. Both areas are not as "nice" as Temecula/Murrietta but congestion is much less, and large lots (1/4 acre +) are common if that's a consideration for you.

If you commute south towards Escondido/San Diego I can't comment as I only rarely travel that way.

Hi there Demy, You have many great questions. Both area's attract a lot of people for different reasons. The acceotable price depends on the house. With regards to the Amenities , Taxes, HOA's etc. I would be happy to review these in person with you and review the Bedt Buys in these areas. I work with many clients in both areas.

Kind Regards

Patterson's Ex-Girlfriend Recants Domestic Violence Allegations on Facebook

Posted By on Mon, Mar 26, 2012 at 9:39 AM

After accusing state Rep. Daniel Patterson of domestic violence, Georgette Escobar has now recanted the charges via Facebook:

Statement of Georgette Escobar about Daniel Patterson

I had a breakdown recently. I’m now stabilized and working on getting better.

Daniel Patterson never hit or committed domestic violence against me. I never needed an order of protection against him. I’m sorry.

I disagree with the ethics complaint, investigation and charges against him. He should be found innocent.

Georgette Escobar

Escobar was arrested on charges of meth possession in La Paz County after making the allegations against Patterson. She recently announced, via Facebook, that she was now embracing the Republican Party and has claimed Ronald Reagan as an "inspirational figure."

State Rep. Ted Vogt, the Republican chairman of the House Ethics Committee, tells TW contributor Hank Stephenson that the ethics investigation into Patterson is continuing and that the investigators who are looking into the allegations have asked for more time.

More background on this story here and here.

This summer, Positive Women’s Network–USA (PWN-USA) helped lead national efforts to save the Affordable Care Act (ACA, or Obamacare) from repeal. Although the group succeeded, the fight isn’t over.

All members of Congress are home for the August recess, but when they return to Washington, DC, in September, they’ll be voting on a number of pieces of legislation, as well as the federal budget, which includes funding for HIV and hepatitis programs as well as Medicaid and food stamps.

That’s why PWN-USA has released a Recess Resistance Toolkit and is asking everyone to take a pledge to “be active during #ResistanceRecess to #ProtectOurCare and the #HIVBudget.”

You can take the pledge here and view the entire tool kit here. Below are a few suggestions, taken from the tool kit, on ways you can take action during the recess and where you can find the needed resources.

Find local events

Many members of Congress use recess as an opportunity to connect with and hear from folks at home. Check this list for upcoming events in your area:

  • Families USA events calendar and tool kit with lots of great info for talking about health care

  • MoveOn’s Resistance Recess page has lots of upcoming events

  • Town Hall Project events calendar

  • If you’re on Facebook, be sure to join or follow local political groups ,such as the local Democratic and Republican party, as well as organizing groups like Indivisible, Rise Up or MoveOn. That way, you will see when they post events. Pretty much all protests, town halls and other events are publicized on Facebook.

If your Senator is holding a town hall or making a public appearance at an event, plan to show up and “bird-dog” them.
What is bird-dogging? Basically, the goal of bird-dogging is to compel your elected officials (in this case, senators) to answer questions publicly in front of their constituents, voters and the media. Bird-dogging is fun and easy! Just show up at local events and make sure you are ready to ask them tough questions on the issues that matter most to you.

Set up a meeting with your member of Congress’s office.

Your senators work for you. They are obligated to try and meet with constituents when requests are made. However, they are very busy (especially right now), and their calendars get full quickly. Since they will be home next week, this is the perfect time to reach out and set up a meeting.

For more tips, details and comprehensive resources, check out the recess tool kit and sign up for the PWN-USA newsletter. If you’re active on social media, use the hashtags #ResistanceRecess and #HIVResists when you post.

People who are overweight or obese are at higher risk for at least 13 different types of cancer, which together make up about 40 percent of all cancer diagnoses in the United States, according to the latest Vital Signs report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Only smoking is a bigger cancer risk factor.

While new cancer diagnoses have decreased overall since the 1990s, increases in obesity-related cancers are likely slowing this progress, according to the CDC. About two thirds of U.S. adults and nearly a third of children are considered to be either overweight (body mass index, or BMI, of 25.0 to 29.9) or obese (BMI of 30.0 or higher).

“A majority of American adults weigh more than recommended—and being overweight or obese puts people at higher risk for a number of cancers—so these findings are a cause for concern,” CDC director Brenda Fitzgerald, MD, said in a CDC press release. “By getting to and keeping a healthy weight, we all can play a role in cancer prevention.”

The Vital Signs report is based on an analysis by CDC and National Cancer Institute researchers of 2014 data from the United States Cancer Statistics database. The study, recently published in the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, focused on 13 cancers that the International Agency for Research on Cancer has linked to being overweight or obese:

  • Breast cancer in postmenopausal women
  • Colon and rectal cancer
  • Esophagus cancer (adenocarcinoma)
  • Gallbladder cancer
  • Kidney Cancer
  • Liver cancer
  • Meningioma (cancer of the membranes covering the brain)
  • Multiple myeloma
  • Ovarian cancer
  • Pancreas cancer
  • Stomach cancer
  • Thyroid cancer
  • Uterine cancer

More than 631,000 people in the United States were diagnosed with obesity-related cancers in 2014, according to the report. Together, these cancer types account for about 40 percent of the nearly 1.6 million cancers diagnosed annually—55 percent of all cancers diagnosed in women and 24 percent of those diagnosed in men.

Two thirds of obesity-related cancer cases occur in people between ages 50 and 74. Women have about twice the rate of obesity-related cancer as men (218 versus 115 per 100,000 people), largely attributable to breast, ovarian and endometrial uterine cancer. Cancers common in men, including lung and prostate cancer, do not appear to be obesity-related.

Obesity-related cancers, excluding colorectal cancer, increased by 7 percent between 2004 and 2015 (from 123 to 132 cases per 100,000 people), even as other types of cancer fell by 13 percent (from 306 to 267 cases per 100,000). Colon cancer, however, declined by 23 percent (from 50 to 38 cases per 100,000) during this period. Colon cancer was considered separately because precancerous changes can be detected with regular screenings and treated before they become cancerous.

Studies show that obese people are about 30 percent more likely to develop colorectal cancer than people with a healthy weight, and overweight or obese women are two to four times more likely to develop endometrial cancer than women with a healthy weight, according to the study authors. Even an 11-pound weight gain since early adulthood is associated with increased risk for obesity-related cancers.

These findings add to the growing body of evidence showing that a balanced diet, exercise and maintaining a healthy weight can help prevent cancer. An overall healthy diet is more beneficial than eating or avoiding specific foods. The link between cancer and obesity is not fully understood, but chronic inflammation and altered hormone levels appear to play a role.

“As an oncologist, when people ask me if there’s a cure for cancer, I say, ‘Yes, good health is the best prescription for preventing chronic diseases, including cancer,’” said Lisa Richardson, MD, director of the CDC’s Division of Cancer Prevention and Control.

The Vital Signs report and a related commentary in the Journal of the American Medical Association discuss some steps that individuals, health care providers and communities can take to promote healthy weight and reduce the risk of obesity-related cancers.

  • Individuals can follow healthy diet guidelines and do at least 150 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity each week.
  • Health care providers can measure patients’ weight and BMI, counsel them about maintaining a healthy weight and refer obese patients to programs to help them lose weight.
  • Communities can make it easier for residents to choose healthy food options (for example by increasing access to farmers’ markets) and make it safer to be physically active (for example by creating walking trails and bike lanes).
  • Schools can offer healthy food options, support quality physical education and encourage students to walk or bike to school.
  • Workplaces can offer health food in cafeterias and vending machines and encourage physical activity.
  • Families can participate in physical activities together and limit screen time in front of TVs and computers.

“Achieving sustainable weight loss requires comprehensive strategies that support patients’ efforts to make significant lifestyle changes,” Greta Massetti, PhD, of the CDC’s Division of Cancer Prevention and Control and coauthors wrote in their JAMA commentary. “Linking community obesity prevention, weight management and physical activity programs with clinical services can connect people to valuable prevention and intervention resources in the communities where they live, work and play. Such linkages can give individuals the encouragement they need for the lifestyle changes that maintain or improve their health.”

SilverStone RAVEN SST-RV01B-W Full Tower Case

Thinking outside the box while designing the inside of one leads to a new "twist" in case design with SilverStone's stealth inspired RAVEN chassis.
By: Chad Sebring | Full-Tower Cases in Cases, Cooling & PSU | Posted: Apr 7, 2009 5:30 am
TweakTown Rating: 92%Manufacturer: SilverStone

SilverStone RAVEN SST-RV01B-W Full Tower Case

In my short time with PC's I have always looked to see what other people were using to house their hardware in. Some of the cleanest and sexiest PC builds were done in a couple of cases that caught my eye. These are the FT01 and the TJ09 cases from SilverStone. The only issue was that I always tended to opt to buy a cheaper case and spread my dollars elsewhere in the build. Nothing against SilverStone, I just couldn't afford that kind of luxury at the time.

SilverStone has now released a new revolution to the ATX community by designing a chassis that allows the heat to naturally rise through the case by orienting the motherboard tray 90° to the right. This essentially lays the board on its side and then has the CPU fan and video cards exhausting out the top of the case. This concept seems so obvious now, but it took SilverStone to throw all their eggs in a new basket and run with it to actually bring this to the market. And still, this isn't all of it! - SilverStone took another step outside the box of the "average" case and created stealth inspired panels and covers to make the RAVEN RV01 shaped like no other.

Looking at the outside of the box and reading over the features and what is inside, I have to say it looks like SilverStone has thought of everything. Matte black Exterior and odd angled trimmings makes this case a "love it or hate it" type of design. Myself, I'm still not sure on the outside looks, but just from looking at the box, I am impressed with what is done inside. I think it is about time we open the SST-RV01B-W and see if SilverStone has thought of all the angles, not just the ones on the outside of the case.

DVD Release Party Round Up

We have been getting in all kinds of reports from release around the country.  From Forks to Puerto Rico people lined up to meet actors or just to be the first in line to get Twilight on DVD.

The Daily Penninsula reports that in Forks nearly 600 people turned out to celebrate teh DVD release.  People came from as far away as Maryland. The Quileute Dancers shared parts of their history, including parts of their sacred wolf dance.

Here are some photos from the Kitson DVD Party.  Thanks to Vescara for sending in the pics.

Even “Pocket Edward” ventured out to a midnight release party in hopes of meeting Ashely Greene.  You can check out his adventures here.

And finally we have a report from Puerto Rico.  Thanks Iva for the report and pictures.

Puerto Rico also had its own Midnight DVD release party at the Borders located in Plaza Las Américas, the island’s largest shopping mall. While it was a small affair in comparison with other ones held at the larger cities, those of us who attended had huge amounts of fun. My friend Marta and I got there early in the evening to indulge in some Twilight related fun and excitement.

The Borders staff was amazing and planned a night full of Twilight inspired ideas, such as very hard trivia questions, a rock band that played very cool music,  the Twilight Movie Awards, and a lookalike contest. One of the best moments came when the staff played the message from the cast. The screaming was so loud that they very graciously played it at least four times so that we could all scream at the appropriate moments. I was very impressed with their dedication and enthusiasm!

I am sending you guys some pics of our adventures waiting to get our hands on our exclusive Borders Twilight DVD. Needless to say, we went straight to Marta’s home to see it IMMEDIATELY.

  1. 1st one to comment!! anyway i am from puerto rico!!

  2. 08ertwilighter says:

    good pictures from the kitson event! i noticed the sign for a 76 gas station in the background – i haven’t seen one of those in about 10 years! anyway, isn’t this ‘edward’ a wanna-be? i clicked the link, figuring it was the “lauren’s bite” ‘edward’ adventures, but it wasn’t… oh well, still not that bad.

  3. Julie M. says:

    Are you talking about the guy next to Rachelle? That’s Kellan, who plays Emmett.

  4. Jasper37 says:

    Great Pictures!

  5. Nice to hear about the Puerto Rican release party. I live on the island, but was too sick to go, sadly.

    Thanks for sharing the coverage, Lexicon. Really appreciate it!

  6. Ahhh, my man Kellan is looking hot 😉

  7. Mahriah Schmidt says:

    The Hot Topic party I attended was soooo lame & i’m angry. First after waiting in line, at 10 o’clock, they let groups of 20 in the store to shop & take pictures with the Edward stand, then put u back in line till Midnight.. Everyone pu thenames into the ding for thutographed Talorposter & other pzes, but they not giveay prie way at lla

  8. Mahriah I’m sorry that the Hot Topic event was such a disaster but, your post really made me laugh! What happened at the end of your post…? You just gave up writing. Anyways, Kellan looks cute holding those pink flowers!

  9. Mahriah Schmidt says:

    Sue…ha ha, sorry. I’m on my cell & if I type something really long, it won’t let me see what i’m typing anymore, so it gets all screwed up. Basically, Hot Topic didn’t give away any prizes.

  10. Thank you guys for publishing my update!

    I forgot to mention that one of the store employees mentioned that the Twilight Saga has been selling constantly for the past year and that it doesn’t seem like it will die down anytime soon. This is quite an impressive fact and just proves that the series keeps reaching new readers all the time 🙂

  11. Oh, and Kellan and Rachelle look amazing!

  12. Pocket Edward is absolutely hilarious.

    Would have been good to see Ashley’s response up close and personal with him… it’s just gold.

    I look very much forward to Pocket Edward’s adventures…

  13. Pinkramirolg says:

    OMG!!!! I didn’t know that Borders was having a release party in Puerto Rico. Im sad that I didn’t went!!!

  14. Hey! 😀 I wanted to see if someone from P.R. had posted anything related to the release party and I found this 🙂 I was actually there too! (Plaza Las Americas) I even saw you taking the picture of the 2 girls in uniform :O I absolutely loved the enthusiasm that floated around :DD I even tried that beverage called “Bellas Blood”
    Im so glad my friend invited me.
    Anyways, les envio saludos desde Hatillo, Puerto Rico!

  15. Oh and who is Pocket Edward?? D:

  16. LOL i like how there’s a huge edward face on the last picture

  17. Hey Vivian,
    It was a pretty cool event! I had a lot of fun. I tried Bella’s Blood as well but didn’t like it. Bella’s Blood is just too sweet for me! I’m glad you enjoyed the pictures!
    ¡Saludos desde Bayamón!

  18. Pocket Edward is an Edward doll that has…adventures…with his ‘owners’…who take photos of him in weird, random places, and even has his own blog.

    Pocket Edward is hilarious!

  19. Hi Iva :] I too agree on the Bella’s Blood thing…it nearly gave me a stomach ache xD
    But since I paid for it…lol I saw a video of pocket Edward: funny!

With main contractors pushing for rapid completion times and the lowest tender prices many companies are looking for the competitive edge. Many are taking the time to review their access equipment supplier.

Am I getting the best value?

If a company is to compete in a difficult construction market, they need to be sure of the best rates from their suppliers. Hire a scaffold tower from Lakeside-hire and save 52% on your hire rates*. For example in the past many of our existing customers have paid £55 a week for a podium step. Now they pay £25 per week for a better product from Lakeside-hire.

When can I get delivery?

If you order a scaffold tower or podium steps for a site, delivery time is key. Many hours are lost on site through delays in the delivery chain. Time is money; the lost labour cost alone could be £100s an hour. Lakeside-hire guarantees a morning delivery. Recent performance levels have been 100% delivery before 12 noon, 80% of these completed before 10am.

What is the standard of the scaffold tower supplied?

A companys Health and safety record can be a contributing factor in whether a contract is won or lost. After winning a contract some companies have been removed from site for breaching working at height regulations. The equipment used and the standards that it is maintained to, is a significant reflection on the contactor. Every item of scaffold tower, podium steps, ladders and access equipment is inspected, maintained and thoroughly steam cleaned before it's sent to site. You would think this to be the industry norm, but all too often you see examples of poorly maintained/unsafe equipment on site.

The ethos of Lakeside hire is based on giving you the best advantage. The best rates to secure contracts. The earliest delivery times to get started on time. The best scaffold tower and podium steps to for early contract completion. The industries most secure site boxes to protect your tools, fixings and materials. Maybe it's time to look at your access equipment supplier. Maybe it's time to try Lakeside-hire.

Building a Bridge

In his new role, Blake Meyers will be collaborating on plant science research with colleagues both at MU and the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center. Image courtesy of EurekAlert.

It began with an article in the Chicago Tribune. As a sophomore studying biology at the University of Chicago in the spring of 1990, Blake Meyers read about how several Midwestern farmers were coming up with innovations in agriculture. The story highlighted an organic farmer in rural Missouri who was growing high-quality vegetables as well as fresh-cut flowers for the Kansas City restaurant market.

“At that point I knew I was interested in plants and so I wanted to get connected to agriculture,” Meyers said.

Meyers called up the farmer, Mark Marino, out of the blue. Meyers asked Marino if he needed help around his farm near Stover, Missouri, during that upcoming summer. He did. A short time later, Meyers found himself about 70 miles southwest of Columbia, helping grow more than 150 varieties of vegetables and flowers.

State determines individual ins. premiums

March 28, 2013 at 12:09 AM
share with facebook
share with twitter

SCHAUMBURG, Ill., March 27 (UPI) -- The premiums of U.S. workers who buy their own health insurance will either go up or down depending on the state in which they live, actuaries estimate.

"The model involved price, income levels and state underwriting regulations among other variables to try to determine who the new market for individual health insurance plans would be -- currently, nationwide, there are about 12 million workers who buy an individual health insurance plan because their employer doesn't not provide any health coverage," Kristi Bohn of the Society of Actuaries told United Press International.

"The model suggested the number of people who buy individual health insurance plans would increase to 25 million -- more than double, but we don't really know who these new people are."

The report, sponsored by the Society of Actuaries, estimated the premiums of those whose employers don't provide health insurance and buy an individual healthcare plan themselves could increase by 32 percent on average nationwide within the next three years, but the estimates did not reflect the federal subsidies available to some small businesses and to low-income individuals in the form of tax credits, Bohn said.

Each state has a different set of underwriting rules, different geographies and different levels of underwriting.

The Affordable Care Act's affect on premiums was not part of the model, but long-term relative claims cost were. Many aspects of the healthcare reform legislation will affect premiums, including changing benefit designs, new taxes and assessments, federal risk mitigation programs, minimum loss ratio rules -- the amount of overhead for insurance companies is restricted -- and premium subsidies by the government for those with low incomes.

"We were surprised by the amount of differences among the states, they were all very different and their past experiences, their underwriting rules, healthcare programs, Medicaid all affect the premiums of the individual health insurance plans," Bohn said. "For example, some states have complex applications for individual health insurance that might not allow a pre-existing condition so a person might have been turned down for a policy in the past but now that person will be allowed to enter the health insurance market because of the Affordable Care Act."

The more people within a state who had been shut out of the individual health insurance market before because of a pre-existing condition, or an illness, the more this pool of high-risk insurers will affect the individual plan's premium.

"For example, Vermont -- an early adopter of healthcare for all of its residents -- already experienced the pricing decisions, the changes in the market, the inclusion of the high-risk pool so in our study Vermont's premiums were estimated to decrease about 12.5 percent -- and healthier young people will be added to the pool lowering premiums," Bohn said.

After a period of studying the options and planning, in 2011, Vermont enacted a law establishing the first state-level single-payer healthcare system in the United States. New York is estimated to have its premiums lowered by about 14 percent and Massachusetts' premiums were estimated to drop about 12.8 percent, the report said.

However, the study estimated the individual premiums in both Wisconsin and Ohio would increase at the end of three years by 80 percent.

"Ohio is ending with increased premiums, but is starting from lower premiums and costs to begin with -- so despite the increase, the premium estimate is still lower than national average," Bohn said.

The model assumed all of the parts of the Affordable Care Act would be enacted, including expanded Medicaid, but many states have said they would not expand Medicaid, so that will have an impact on the individual premiums as well, Bohn said.

"Remember, this study has nothing to do with employer-provided health insurance plans, this report involved the individual plans, paid by the individuals and those who do not have health insurance currently," Bohn said.

The model was also limited in what it examined. Parts of the Affordable Care Act were not included such as programs that limit insurers' risk in taking on sicker people, improvements in care delivery which will lower costs and the effect of more competition among healthcare plans that should all lower the cost of coverage and lower the price of premiums.

The report, released Wednesday created a bit of a stir, because many mistakenly thought the increases in premiums involved those who currently get their health insurance as a benefit of their employment that is paid by the employer.

"The healthcare law will bring down costs and save money for young people and families," Kathleen Sebelius, secretary of the U.S. Health and Human Services, said in a statement. "It's misleading to look at only some of the provisions of the law because, taken together, the law will reduce costs."

Underwater search reveals details of 'Britain's Atlantis'

May 9, 2013 at 3:45 PM

SOUTHAMPTON, England, May 9 (UPI) -- A British researcher says he's conducted a detailed analysis of the archaeological remains of the lost medieval town of Dunwich, dubbed "Britain's Atlantis."

Using advanced underwater imaging techniques, the project led by Professor David Sear of the University of Southampton has produced the most accurate map to date of the town's streets, boundaries and major buildings and revealed new ruins on the seabed, a university release reported Thursday.

Present day Dunwich is a village 14 miles south of Lowestoft in Suffolk, but it was once a thriving port, similar in size to 14th Century London, until a huge storm in 1268 swept much of the settlement into the sea and silted up the Dunwich River.

More storms silted up the harbor, leading to the town's eventual demise as a major international port in the 15th Century.

It now lies collapsed and in ruins 10 to 30 feet below the surface of the sea just off the current coastline.

"The loss of most of the medieval town of Dunwich over the last few hundred years -- one of the most important English ports in the Middle Ages -- is part of a long process that is likely to result in more losses in the future," coastal survey expert Peter Murphy of English Heritage said. "Everyone was surprised, though, by how much of the eroded town still survives under the sea and is identifiable."

San Francisco Giants frontrunners for Giancarlo Stanton?

The San Francisco Giants appear to be the leader in the derby to acquire Miami Marlins star Giancarlo Stanton.

Stanton's representatives were given permission to meet with the Giants on Thursday night in Los Angeles, according to multiple reports. The Marlins approved the meeting so Major League Baseball tampering rules were satisfied as the Giants try to determine whether or not Stanton would agree to a trade.

Miami is looking to slash payroll and Stanton is owed $295 million over the next 10 seasons as part of his 13-year, $325 million contract. The slugger has a no-trade clause in the deal and must approve any transaction.

The Giants have reportedly offered second baseman Joe Panik, two promising minor leaguers (right-hander Tyler Beede and first baseman Chris Shaw) and two first-round draft choices for Stanton, who won National League MVP honors while smacking 59 homers with 132 RBIs last season.

The Marlins are reportedly only willing to pick up $45 million of Stanton's contract to make the deal work. New ownership, including former New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter, is intent on deeply cutting the team's payroll.

The St. Louis Cardinals are considered as the other leading contender for Stanton with the Los Angeles Dodgers and Boston Red Sox also rating as possibilities.

Stanton, a four-time All-Star, has launched 267 homers in eight seasons with the Marlins. He also was MVP runner-up in 2014 when he led the NL with 37 homers while compiling 105 RBIs.

Panik batted .288 with 10 homers and 53 RBIs last season in his fourth big league campaign. He was a National League All-Star in 2015 when he batted a career-high .312.

Beede, considered one of San Francisco's top prospects, went 6-7 with a 4.79 ERA in 109 innings at Triple-A Sacramento in 2017. Shaw split time between the Double-A and Triple-A levels and batted .292 with 24 homers and 79 RBIs.

Nov. 23 (UPI) -- The San Francisco 49ers have claimed defensive lineman Cassius Marsh off waivers from the New England Patriots.

San Francisco announced the move on Wednesday.

Marsh, 25, was a former fourth round pick by the Seattle Seahawks in the 2014 NFL Draft. The UCLA product had 40 tackles, three sacks, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in three seasons with the Seahawks. The 6 foot 4, 245 pound defender was traded to New England on Sept. 2. Marsh had 16 tackles, a sack, a forced fumble and blocked a field goal for the Patriots in nine games. He started once this season before being waived on Tuesday.

Marsh had 155 tackles, 25.5 tackles for a loss, 16 sacks, five fumble recoveries and two forced fumbles in 50 collegiate contests for the Bruins.

He could fit in at linebacker or defensive end for the 49ers. San Francisco also claimed defensive tackle Sheldon Day off waivers on Monday from the Jacksonville Jaguars. They cut defensive end Datone Jones on Tuesday.

New England filled Marsh's roster spot with defensive end Eric Lee, who was added from the Buffalo Bills' practice squad.

San Francisco has Leger Douzable, Solomon Thomas, Elvis Dumervil, Aaron Lynch and Ronald Blair III listed at defensive end. The 49ers have Eli Harold, Reuben Foster, Brock Coyle, Dekoda Watson, Elijah Lee, Ray-Ray Armstrong, Pita Taumoepenu and Mark Nzeocha listed at linebacker on their unofficial depth chart.

On World Childrens' Day, UNICEF cites 'forgotten minority'

Nov. 20 (UPI) -- UNICEF said on World Childrens' Day Monday that 180 million more children live in violence or extreme poverty than 20 years ago.

The figure refers to 37 countries in which the children are likely to live in poverty, be without a school or die by violence. One in 12 children worldwide live in conditions offering prospects more limited than those of their parents, according to the report.

It cited 21 countries in which primary school enrollment has declined because of rapid population growth and the impact of military conflicts, and seven war-torn countries in which violent deaths of people under 19 have increased. The share of those living on $1.90 per day, because of unrest or poor government policies, has increased in 14 countries.

"While the last generation has seen vast, unprecedented gains in living standards for most of the world's children, the fact that a forgotten minority of children have been excluded from this, through no fault of their own or those of their families, is a travesty," said Laurence Chandy, UNICEF director of Data, Research and Policy.

The World Childrens' Day celebration began at the U.N.offices in Geneva, Switzerland, on Monday. They will continue later Monday at its New York City headquarters.and are expected to include UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador David Beckham, Chilean President Michelle Bachelet, singer and UNICEF Ambassador Pink, Stranger Things actress Millie Bobby Brown, cricket star Sachin Tendulkar and other celebrities.

"It's a fun day with a serious point. A day for children by children to help save children's lives, fight for their rights and help them fulfill their potential," said Justin Forsyth, UNICEF deputy executive director.

Rohingya crisis: U.N. human rights chief calls for criminal investigation

By Sara Shayanian  |  Dec. 5, 2017 at 10:20 AM
share with facebook
share with twitter

Dec. 5 (UPI) -- The U.N. Human Rights Chief condemned attacks against the Rohingya in Myanmar on Tuesday and called for a criminal investigation into those involved in the violence.

Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein, the human rights chief, said a special session of the U.N. Human Rights Council was needed to discuss the "widespread, systematic and shockingly brutal" violence the Rohingya Muslim minority have endured in Rakhine State.

The high commissioner recommended the U.N. General Assembly establish an impartial and independent mechanism to assist in the individual criminal investigations of those responsible for the violence in the region.

"Ultimately, this is a legal determination only a competent court can make," Al Hussein said. "But the concerns are extremely serious, and clearly call for access to be immediately granted for further verification."

Al Hussein said his office has visited and interviewed Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh three times this year.

Witnesses in refugee camps reported a slew of crimes -- saying people have burned others to death, carried out murders, raped women and girls and burned homes, schools, markets and mosques.

Since August, an estimated 626,000 refugees -- or more than half the Rohingya population of Rakhine state -- have fled from Myanmar to Bangladesh. The predominantly Buddhist Myanmar government has long withheld citizenship from the Muslim minority group.

"The world cannot countenance a hasty window-dressing of these shocking atrocities, bundling people back to conditions of severe discrimination and latent violence which seem certain to lead in the future to further suffering, and more movements of people," Al Hussein said.

"How much do people have to endure before their suffering is acknowledged and their identity and rights are recognized, by their government and by the world?"

In November, U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said the violence against the Rohingya qualifies as ethnic cleansing.

Tillerson said the United States could "pursue accountability through U.S. law, including possible targeted sanctions."

How do I get a passport if I am deployed in Afghanistan?

by Dustin
(Kandahar, Afghanistan)

Question: I'm currently deployed to Afghanistan, my passport which was issued when I was still a minor is already expired. How can I apply for a new passport while I am deployed since I am planning to visit Germany during my R&R? Please help.

Answer: Although you could go to the embassy in Kabul to get a passport (the embassy compound is adjacent to ISAF HQ); passport applications from members of the military can be turned in to military passport acceptance agents. See your PAC or S1 shop, they should be able to help you process your application. Currently, there are military passport agents Kabul, Bagram (BAF), Kandahar (KAF), Phoenix and the Army Corps of Engineers.

The U.S. Embassy in Kabul does not return passports via APO. If you apply through a military acceptance agent, your new passport will be returned to you by the military acceptance agent.

U.S. soldiers can apply in person at the U.S. Passport Services of the Embassy in Kabul. The normal hours of operation are Sunday-Thursday, 8:00 am-4:00 pm; they are closed between 12:00-1:00 pm for lunch.

For routine questions regarding consular services including passports, reports of birth abroad, and other services please call 0700 10 8499.

Note, U.S. citizens arriving in the country via military air usually have considerable difficulties if they choose to depart Afghanistan on commercial air, because their passports are not stamped to show that they entered the country legally. Those coming on military air should move quickly after arrival to legalize their status if there is any chance they will depart the country on anything other than military air.

MYOfeedback based TELetreatment service (eTEN)

This project investigates the feasibility of the deployment of a prototype myofeedback teletreatment (i.e. MyoTel) service that enables subjects with neck shoulder complaints to receive personalised adjusted remotely supervised treatment during their daily activities.

The availability of ubiquitous (public) wireless network infrastructure creates the possibility to deploy new mobile health care (MHealth) services; e.g. tele-monitoring or tele-treatment services. For example, it is expected that tele-treatment services are more efficient as one therapist can treat several subjects simultaneously and intramural care can be replaced by less costly extramural care. These services are also hypothesised to be more effective because subjects train in their home or work environment and they are not bound to the available treatment hours of the therapist; subjects can train much more intense and the amount of training is a key factor in obtaining results.

This project addresses the phases necessary to investigate the market acceptability of this service in two different groups of patients; i.e. two different health care markets; patients with work related neck shoulder problems (occupational health care system) and patients with a chronic whiplash (rehabilitation care system) in different countries and particularly demonstrates the user acceptance and the effectiveness for all key actors in the value chain from a clinical and economic point of view. All actions are tailored to overcome the barriers for effective application of E-Health technology and take the main differences in the rehabilitation and occupational health care systems between countries into account.
