When and How Do I Sign Up in the Marketplace?Steve Levine
Deck 3 of the Texas Medical Association's "Hey Doc" campaign: When and How do I Sign Up in the Marketplace?
Physicians are Americans’ most trusted source for information on the Affordable Care Act (ACA), according to a new national poll; but people are not turning to their doctors to learn about it. The Texas Medical Association is about to change all of that.
TMA’s “Hey, Doc” education campaign will provide objective and nonpartisan answers to the most frequently asked questions about the new ACA health insurance marketplace. We want to make sure all Texans understand what the marketplace does and what steps they need to take.
This document summarizes the effects of the 2008-2009 drought in Texas on ranchers and farmers in Central Texas. It discusses how the drought led to higher feed and fertilizer costs for ranchers like Melvin Dube, who had to sell some of his cattle herd to afford the costs. The drought also reduced hay production and cattle prices. While rainfall in late 2009 provided some relief, the long-term impacts on ranching operations were significant due to damaged grasslands. The drought highlighted the financial precarity of agricultural businesses dependent on rainfall.

I don't understand my marketplace insuranceSteve Levine
Half a year after policies purchased via the Affordable Care Act (ACA) online marketplace exchanges first took effect, research studies and media reports show that many of these newly insured Americans don’t understand their insurance or how to use it.

Women are making gains in the workplace but still face discrimination. While more women now earn college degrees than men, they are paid less and face barriers to promotions. However, women are increasingly entering high-paying fields like healthcare, education and management. As these trends continue, households may come to rely less on male breadwinners and more on female income, shifting traditional workplace dynamics.
Martin Barrera is an architect based in Austin, Texas who offers a broad range of architectural services with a focus on sustainable design and urban redevelopment. His portfolio includes civic, commercial, educational, and residential projects. Notable projects include a childcare learning center, competition designs for a city park, and visitor centers for Texas state parks. Barrera's approach emphasizes balancing the needs of the site, client, and context through sustainable and vernacular-inspired solutions.
Gender inequality persists in the workplace as evidenced by unequal pay and barriers to promotions and career growth for women. Women face discrimination due to gender stereotypes that view men as superior workers. While more women are pursuing higher education and careers, they still earn only 77 cents for every dollar earned by men. Women also face discrimination related to pregnancy and family responsibilities. Efforts are needed to promote diversity and equality in the workplace.
Mark Sanders, a spokesperson for Republican gubernatorial candidate Carole Keeton Strayhorn, called the wife of Democratic candidate Chris Bell last week and suggested that Bell drop out of the governor's race and instead run for comptroller. Bell said he has no plans to drop out of the governor's race or run for comptroller. Longtime Democratic state Senator Ken Armbrister of Victoria announced he will not seek re-election after 38 years in public service, including nearly 24 years in the Texas Legislature. He was known as a leader on water issues who often broke with his party. Capital Metro will lower the starting wages for new bus drivers and maintenance workers in response to failed contract negotiations with unions last week

It also includes brief summaries of additional articles on the condo market in Austin being viewed as potentially oversupplied but developers remaining optimistic, a book revealing Mother Teresa's personal struggles with faith, and the Democratic National Committee threatening to bar Florida's delegates from its convention if the state holds its primary too early
The document discusses research at the University of Texas at Austin, highlighting several examples of UT's research centers and institutes collaborating with government agencies and private industry.

Pike Powers has played a key role in attracting and retaining several high-tech companies and research centers in Austin over the past few decades. These include the MCC computer research consortium in 1983, 3M research operations in 1984, Sematech chip research consortium in 1991, Applied Materials' largest chip equipment plant in 1996, Samsung's first computer chip plant in 1996, and Sematech rejecting a move to New York and keeping its main site in Austin in 2004. As an economic development leader in Central Texas for 24 years, Powers helped set up an important meeting between Gov. Perry and the head of the National Institute of Standards and Technology to discuss funding for nanotechnology research, which could help establish Texas as a leader

Louis Perez was convicted in 1999 of a 1998 triple murder in Austin's Barton Hills neighborhood. New DNA tests on evidence from the crime scene did not link the murders to Angel Maturino Resendiz, known as the "Railroad Killer", despite the family's hopes. One final DNA test on hairs found at the scene remains outstanding but preliminary results provide no evidence to contradict Perez's conviction. The family had hoped testing would show a link to Resendiz after he allegedly confessed to the killings from death row in 2002.
