But with most types of health insurance, you can’t buy a policy whenever you want. This is true whether you’re trying to buy a health plan on the Affordable Care Act health insurance exchange in your state (or directly through the insurer, outside the exchange), enroll in the plan your employer offers, or even sign up for Medicare. Health plans limit enrollment to the open enrollment period in order to discourage adverse selection....
It was that way all week. As the GOP stage-managed the show, deftly combining large-screen video appearances with prescreened, carefully scripted, well-coiffed speakers, it drained all of the hot blood from the convention’s arteries. Before the opening gavel, I knew this convention would produce little unexpected news and that the backstage manipulation would be more ruthless than ever before. (This is a bipartisan problem: next week in Chicago, the Democrats will engage in the same micromanagement....

According to industry analyst Michael Inouye, “Although nearly 30 percent of the 1,007 respondents to the survey (which was conducted April 15-16, 2009 in the US) reported some initial difficulties in setting up their equipment, only 11 percent actually returned products as being “too hard” – a figure at the low end of the typical range of consumer electronics returns reported recently by the Wall Street Journal. Most of the problems occurred with wireless setup, suggesting that vendors have an opportunity to make wireless network setup and security a much easier process through software and hardware solutions....
Through Saturday’s games, the 2015 NCAA Tournament has averaged a combined 6.3 rating and 9.9 million viewers on CBS, TBS, TNT and TruTV. The rating is tied as the highest at this point of the tournament since 1994, matching 1996, 1997 and 1998, and viewership stands as the highest since 1993. Compared to last year, ratings and viewership are up a mere three and two percent, respectively. Though the growth has been minuscule, that is merely a reflection of just how well the tournament has been doing in recent years — the multi-year highs are not simply the result of ‘one good year’ but are building upon an existing trend....

Well currently, WiFi routers operate on either the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz bandwidths. However, as technology advances and the number of internet connected devices has skyrocketed, the strain on these bandwidths has increased dramatically. This is due to bandwidth congestion, which happens when too many devices in a small area are trying to send and receive signals operating on the same bandwidth. By opening up the 6 GHz band, the FCC is hoping that it can help to alleviate that problem by opening up 1200 MHz worth of space in the 6 GHz band....

Although Wildermyth has been in early access for quite some time, the full version 1.0 has only just recently launched. As with most early access games, this has caused a spike in the player base, so there are a lot of newer players trying to figure out how the game works. Healing is an important part of any RPG, so this is an understandable question. RELATED: Wildermyth: How Many Players Is It?...
The 24-year-old has bounced back from an early-season setback to lift Crystal Palace off the base of the English Premier League table. The Eagles are unbeaten in their last seven games and are now 14th in the top-flight log, with their star man contributing four goals. Wright said Roy Hodgson has his team set to play to the strength of the Cote d’Ivoire international, and he believes that Arsene Wenger’s side - not Tottenham who have been linked to the former Manchester United man - would be a good fit for his style....
On Thursday, the Senate, following the House, voted to create another open-ended middle-class entitlement. Congress is not inhibited by the Law of Holes, which is: When you are in a hole, quit digging. Although it is the elderly who are devouring the federal budget—and through it, a huge share of the economy’s future production—the State Children’s Health Insurance Program is (mostly) about children, at least ostensibly. But it also is about a deep divide between the parties....
Rodgers accelerated out of a sure sack and rolled out of the pocket under duress with six and a half minutes remaining in the second quarter. He unleashed a running rainbow leap throw down the right sideline. The pass floated to where only tight end Jimmy Graham could catch it. Graham did not catch it. Safety Jimmie Ward instead did enough to wrestle the ball away, and a special throw fell incomplete to prompt fourth down and a punt....
