Let me try to understand this: The key incentive for small businesses to support Obamacare was that they would be able to shop for the best deals in health care super-stores—called exchanges. The Administration has had 3 years to set up these exchanges. It has failed to do so. This is a really bad sign. There will be those who argue that it’s not the Administration’s fault. It’s the fault of the 33 [...] From Debt Reckoning: With tighter gun laws on the horizon, the days of applying for a concealed-carry permit and freely carrying a gun on our person may be coming to an end. For some, depending on their location, or their personal preferences, carrying a gun is not feasible. Either way, it is important to consider a few alternative products for self defense. All of the items listed below may be found online [...] GFS Develops it into the mother of winter storms. ECMWF keeps it over land.

Perhaps those same PhDs will also be surprised to note that, based on the 44 month average length ‘out of recession’, that the next recession (as proffered by the NBER) is due to begin March 2013 (though of course, the resolution of [...] Is your TV watching you? Latest models raise concerns Samsung’s 2012 top-of-the-line plasmas and LED HDTVs offer new features never before available within a television including a built-in, internally wired HD camera, twin microphones, face tracking and speech recognition.

The highly anticipated gadget –which sold five million units worldwide during the first weekend of its release on September 21 – has a new charging connector which is 80 per cent smaller than previous models. The change means millions who rushed to buy the new phone at prices of up to [...] Among other things, one of the iPhone’s competitive advantages is the unparalleled ecosystem of – no, not apps – accessories. But the iPhone 5’s new Lighting connector threatens to destroy that advantage. There are only a relatively small number of iPhone models with tens of millions of sales each, and they’ve all shared a common connector since their introduction five years ago. This situation has made easy and lucrative for enterprising [...] Auckland volcano danger drowned out Aucklanders may get only a day or two warning of a volcanic eruption and will only know hours before where it will explode on the surface, a scientific paper says.

German Deputy Foreign Minister Michael Link, speaking to reporters in Luxembourg, said the proposals tilt “toward various models for mutualizing debt” but “come up short” in terms of improved budgetary controls, Bloomberg reported.

Last night, I attended a models and bottles party at Hudson Terrace on the west side of the city, in the shadow of the Intrepid and under a shroud of rain and fog. But inside the place was jumpin’ – the DJ played while gorgeous [...] From The Big Picture: Followers of my various writings know that I have been wildly bullish on stocks for 2012, making the case that we could see a 2003/2009-like move as the reflation trade takes hold. Problem affects ‘wi fi only’ models Apple is quietly replacing units of the new iPad affected by slow, unreliable wi-fi. The company’s Applecare support service has been told to replace affected units, according to a leaked internal memo seen by 9to5Mac. The memo says that Applecare is ‘actively investigating’ problems including an inability to connect to nearby networks and slow speeds. The new [...] Hundreds of complaints on official forums Apple’s new iPad might have a state-of-the-art HD screen but the tech giant seems to have forgotten something – the web connection. Users on Apple’s forums have reported that the new gadget has trouble picking up and holding on to wi-fi signals. A thread on Apple’s official forums has [...] From Forbes: … Of the 10 models that comprise our final list of 10 Worst-Built Cars for 2012, all but two of them, the Smart ForTwo and Toyota FJ Cruiser, come from domestic-brand automakers, specifically Chrysler LLC and General Motors. While those automakers have been making great strides in recent years with new and recently redesigned models, they’re still recovering from their near-death experiences in 2008-2009 and the laggards in their respective lines awaiting [...] An aspiring teenage model fell into the clutches of a ‘Christian’ agent who duped her into living with him and turned into a ‘sexual predator’, according to a lawsuit. Hayden Holt, who is originally from Pennsylvania, claims Aristeo Tengco spotted her at a modelling competition and convinced her to stay in his New York City apartment, which he had turned into a boarding house for models. The 19-year-old said her parents allowed [...] We thought we had seen it all. It turns out we hadn’t.
