AssUme...
A New Jersey dentist has been fined $1.1 million by the federal government for assuming the identity of a dead colleague and submitting fraudulent Medicaid bills after losing his license.
NJ.com reports that 58-year-old Roben Brookhim also accepted a 50-year exclusion from participating in any federal health care programs for masterminding the long billing scheme. Brookhim started billing the government under the name of deceased dentist John Kirkland Jr. after his own license was revoked in 2004.
He was convicted of falsifying health care records and spent nine months in prison in 2014.
Brookhim's exclusion was one of the longest ever imposed by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Free money it is... Just a thought.

Hope Hicks...
She's a spokeswoman who rarely speaks. A political novice helping run one of the most rambunctious, unpredictable presidential campaigns in history. A former model who is almost never
in front of a camera. In any other election year a 27-year-old who hadn't so much as volunteered on a political campaign would not be controlling communications in a presidential contest. But this isn't any other year.
Meet Hope Hicks, one of the unlikeliest breakout stars of the 2016 campaign. If proximity is power—and in presidential politics it is—Hicks is one of the most powerful people in America. When Donald Trump is on his luxury airplane, she's the one sitting next to him.
An inspirational poster hangs above the Trump Tower desk of Hope Hicks, the 27-year-old press secretary for Donald J. Trump’s presidential campaign, squeezed in among the framed Time magazine covers of Mr. Trump and exuberant thank-you notes written in his inimitable scrawl (“Hopie — You’re the greatest!”).

Failed Idiology...*
Donald Trump is a menace to American conservatism who would take the work of generations and trample it underfoot in behalf of a populism as heedless and crude as the Donald himself,” National Review’s cover story out Friday reads.
RNC spokesperson Sean Spicer confirmed that National Review will no longer be participating in next month's GOP debate.
Trump says that the GOP is beginning to accept him. "I have received so many phone calls from people that you would call 'establishment,' from people generally speaking, conservative Republicans that want to come in our team,” Trump added.
And he may be right, as National Review publisher Jack Fowler wrote Thursday that his publication was being stripped of its hosting duties for a GOP debate with CNN in late February.
I think the National Review is staying in the Ideologies of the previous election. The 2016 election time, the Republicans want a different type of Leadership that can "Make America Great Again."
Citizens want a change.? Just a thought. [Posted on 1/23/2016]

Silent...?*
One in every four adults have high blood pressure. But many people are unaware that they have the condition. Untreated hypertension increases the risk of heart disease and stroke. These are the first and third commonest causes of death in the USA.
Hypertension can also damage the kidneys and increase the risk of blindness and dementia. That is why hypertension is referred to as a "silent killer."
High blood pressure interacts with other major risk factors such as diabetes and high levels of cholesterol to amplify the risk of heart attack and stroke. Changes in lifestyle can therefore help us achieve blood pressure goals.

- Several factors may play a role in its development, including:
- Too much salt in the diet
- Smoking
- Being overweight or obese
- Lack of physical activity
- Too much alcohol consumption (more than 1 to 2 drinks per day)
- Stress
- Genetics
- Family history of high blood pressure
- Chronic kidney Disease.
So avoid a long life of sickness.
Reckless...?*
Snowboarder Christian Mares survived what few ski resort guests ever imagine having to face, when he was nearly swallowed up by tons of fast moving snow. Now he's facing an avalanche of criticism and potential prosecution for what officials are calling his "reckless decision."
Mares triggered the avalanche at a popular ski destination just northwest of Lake Tahoe.
Resort officials say Mares was riding in a closed area of the mountain that was off limits, and the avalanche put other skiers at risk. "Those closed signs are there for a reason."
The resort had the disappearance of 23-year-old ski instructor Carson May a week earlier. Rescue crews were unable to locate May at the time.
There are no official charges against Mares and the investigation is now in the hands of the Placer County Sheriff's Department for trespassing into a closed area of a ski resort.
