HMO versus PPO

The battle of the century is staged.  Now the presidental candidates has brought healthcare to the forefront, with their proposals for Universal Healthcare.  But before we put our little two cents in on that, we came across another battle raging between manage care to who really is the best.  HMO versus PPO.  And the winner is.... Let's remember the HMO has a gatekeeper.  The doctor, the hospital, and the insurance company are connected together on a HMO plan.  It looks like that could be a 3 to 1 advantage.  And yes, there are some real saints out there, giving of themselves unselfishly.  But they still have to fight with the insurance company over what they agree to pay for or not pay for.   That in itself has cost a lot doctors a lot of money.  Ask some doctors how they have faired with manage care themselves. Let's say this the PPO ain't perfect, but it definately ain't a HMO either.

How to turn D's to B's and F's to A's

     If you are making D's and F's, are you happy with your grades or do you feel you can do better?  It is all up to you if you want to change, nobody can make you study or do your work for you. You have to be willing to do it. But the question is, Are you goofing off? or Are you doing the best you possibly can? Because if you know that you are doing the best that you can you should be happy with whatever grade's you get. But if you know that you can do better, you need to sit down and really think, what kind of future can you have without good grades.

      First of all, you wouldn't be able to pass the graduation test because you wouldn't know any of the questions that they are asking you. Then, you will not be able to get in a good college, if you do happen to graduate from highschool, because they won't accept you because of your grades. Therefore, you can't get a good job because you will not understand the criteria that it takes to do the job, at the best of your ability. So if you are really concerned about your future, you need to think can I get anywhere with bad grades?

Review of Happy to be Me, by Destiny Brown

I think that you should be happy to be you because God made you very special. And he loves you and it would be a very very bad thing if you let him down.

Review of Bratty Brothers and Selfish Sisters by Destiny Brown

I thought that if you have a little brother or sister you should be nice to them. Because when they get something that you want or to just borrow they will say no. But if you beg them they will give it to you just to get you to shutup. And it is not nice it is selfish.
