To mark the occasion, I'd like us to remember the first Thanksgiving. More than 50 years before those newcomers up in Plymouth, Capt.

On June 30, 1564 he wrote "On this celebration, we sang a psalm of Thanksgiving unto God, beseeching Him that it would please His Grace to continue His accustomed goodness toward us.”

Barbara Neff of Santa Monica is one of the roughly 1 million Californians who recently got word that their health insurance coverage would be expiring soon.
The canceled plans sparked a political firestorm as people realized President Obama's promise — "If you like your plan, you can keep it" — didn't apply to everyone.
But Neff, a 46-year-old self-employed writer, isn't outraged. She's relieved. Even though she makes too much money to receive a subsidy to buy insurance under the Affordable Care Act, the policy cancellation was good news for her.
She's not the only one. Other Californians are also finding that having their plans canceled allows them to sign up for better coverage.
Neff says she's been stuck in a bad plan because treatment for a back problem years ago red-flagged her with a pre-existing condition.
"The deductible has ranged anywhere from $3,000 to as high as $5,000, which means I have to spend that much each year before the insurance even kicks in," she says. "I was rejected [from a more affordable policy] because I'd had a bout of sciatica five years previously that has never returned."
On Jan. 1, the federal health law prohibits insurers from denying coverage or charging more for such pre-existing problems. That's opened an array of options for Neff, who has enrolled in a new plan through California's state-run insurance marketplace, Covered California. On Thursday, the state health exchange board voted unanimously that it would not extend canceled policies, rejecting the president's proposed fix for the problem.
Neff's new policy has a $2,000 deductible and her premium will go up by $24 a month. Under the federal law, she'll no longer have to pay for preventive care, and she figures that alone will more than make up for the additional premium costs.
"I've been paying for my mammograms out of pocket, and that's $400 to $450 per year," Neff says. "That type of care is 100 percent covered under this new policy."
Huge deductibles have been the norm for Tim Wilsbach, a 40-year-old TV editor who lives in Culver City with his family. Like Neff, Wilsbach also makes too much to qualify for federal subsidies, so when he received his cancellation notice a few weeks ago, he was worried his premium would go up.
Wilsbach has two plans for his family. The one being cancelled is a bare-bones policy with an $11,000 deductible that he has for himself and his 4-year-old son.
"It was not a great policy," he says, "which is essentially why we had a second plan for my wife, which we paid a little more for."
Wilsbach and his wife are planning to have a second baby, so they bought a policy for her with better coverage and a $5,000 deductible.
After getting the cancellation notice, Wilsbach checked out plans on the Covered California website and he was pleasantly surprised. He found a plan for the whole family that offers broader coverage, a much lower $4,000 deductible and a more affordable monthly premium.
"Our premium went down not quite 100 bucks, and just looking through what the plan covers versus what used to be covered. Yeah, I'm quite happy about it," Wilsbach says.
Jane Bradford, 52, is a stay-at-home mom in Pasadena. She's losing the HMO insurance she has for herself and her three kids, who are 16, 21 and 23. Her policy offers low copays for doctor visits and a relatively low $3,000 family deductible, but she'll shed no tears to see it go. Bradford says that's because she's found several plans that will cost hundreds less in monthly premiums — even though her husband's income is too high for the family to qualify for a federal subsidy.
"Saving possibly $400 or more a month is awesome, so I'm not sad at all," Bradford says.
None of this comes as a surprise to Micah Weinberg, a senior researcher at the Bay Area Council Economic Institute in San Francisco. "A lot of the anecdotes about people having policies cancelled and gigantic increases are real — but not representative of what's happening more broadly in the marketplace," he says.
Weinberg predicts many people who are losing their policies will come out ahead — even if their premiums go up — because of lower deductibles, full coverage of preventive care and no penalties for pre-existing conditions. What's more, he says, health insurance will almost certainly be cheaper for those who qualify for subsidies. In California, that's an estimated 2.5 million people.

New circle buddies - I like to see something if I look art your profile. Some posts and maybe a little info. I don't have to find the posts to my liking though. I'll even circle back some obvious spammer types if they post something in the mix other than the spam. I'll follow some business pages and if you don't post primarily in English, that's okay too.
I don't generally follow kids, porn or techies. I love all those things but prefer not to see them unexpectedly.
Old circle buddies - I've changed my policy on tolerance. I don't like the feeling when I uncircle old friends. I've begin a circle called STFU (my circle of poopy heads) and it's growing fairly large. I keep the volume turned down but I can still stop by and see you from time to time.
What I'd like to ask of you is just this - if you feel the need to drop me, please leave me a note. I used to do this myself but nobody ever seemed to care so I quit. I do care though. Your presence in my virtual life is valuable to me. Thanks bunches.

PINAC needs to raise $2,000 in 24 hours to hire a very reputable Boston attorney to represent us during Thursday's hearing where Boston police will try to convince a magistrate judge that they have enough probable cause to proceed with felony indictments against us that can possibly land us in prison.
All because we tried to hold an abusive cop accountable.
I've set up an Indiegogo campaign. I will write a blog post to explain more.

In the past few weeks I've uncircled quite a few peeps. Not just the spammers and such but good peeps. I always feel funny afterwards. Like I should have said good bye or something. I used to keep a circle with the volume turned off and visit every week or so but always seemed to bounce them back and finally just gave up and went straight to the circle tool.
Do you ever feel "sellers remorse" ? What does it take for you to dump someone ?
-oh and if you're reading this and I haven't interacted with you lately, it's probably just because I've been really busy. If you go look and see that I dumped you (and care) -
I'm sorry I thought you were a poopy head. PM me and maybe we could talk...

Some time ago a friend and I had a very unpleasant discussion with a man about animal's mourning a death of a loved one. She and I both attempted to show that depresssion, in an animal, is possible. Having worked with animals all my life I fully believe they have that capacity. Here is an article that further affirms my own theories.
