CannonToday, the Obama administration issued new health insurance regulations as part of its effort to implement ObamaCare.  According to The New York Times: the rules appear to fall short of the sweeping commitments President Obama made while trying to reassure the public in the fight over health legislation. One of those commitments was that people who are satisfied with their health insurance will be able to keep their existing health plans. Of course, there is a tension between that goal and ObamaCare’s goal of requiring every American to purchase a minimum amount of health insurance coverage. The new regulations explain how the government will interpret ObamaCare’s “grandfather” clause, which allows some health plans to continue as they exist tod...

My Grandfather had a massive stroke this morning.  He’s in surgery right now to drain the clot.  I have been told that he can no longer speak, but is in very good spirits and still has a sense of humor (which of course causes me to have visions of a mime performing his best to a crowd of ER onlookers.  And then of course causes me to look up for the strike of lightening that is inevitably shooting down towards me.) I’m at a loss here.  This is brand new territory for me.  All of my Grandparents are still alive.  I saw 3 of them - including the mime - on Sunday.  I am not sure what I should do.  Do I go down there?  Do I wait for an update?  The surgery is suppose to take several hours.  My Mom told me to wait.  ...

Perhaps you have tributes to grandparents you’d like to share in the comments.  Some of you may be caring for grandparents with Alzheimer’s.  However, even so, they have passed along to you memories, values, and talents. At Quilting and Patchwork, where I also blog, I wrote a tribute to my grandmother for my quilting heritage and for introducing me to this art. Over at One Book Two Book, another of my blogs, I reminisce about the reading heritage from my ...

The “whirldwind of options” on a computer were too much for Zachary who “threw the mouse in frustration.” From today’s ABC News: The Zac Browser greatly simplifies the experience of using a computer. It seals off most Web sites from view, to block violent, sexual or otherwise adult-themed material. Instead it presents a hand-picked slate of choices from free, public Web sites, with an emphasis on educational games, music, videos and visually entertaining images, like a virtual aquarium. Other programs for children already offer that “walled garden” approach to the Web. But LeSieur’s browser aims to go further: It ...
