Many Latinos in Baltimore lack medical coverage, which contributes to problems such as fewer mothers getting prenatal care, according to a new report that takes the first comprehensive look at the group's health.
The report, released Thursday by the city Health Department, compiled data from the U.S. Census, state health records and a survey of Latino residents to assess the needs of a rapidly growing group that is often left out of the health system.
The study found Latinos, with limited access to medical care, often rely on community clinics. The Highlandtown Community Health Center, for example, provides preventive care and treatment to the growing Latino community in Southeast Baltimore, and offers a bilingual staff and reduced rates.
Still, the report shows that more must be done, as Latinos were twice as likely as other city residents to say they were in poor or fair health.
Health officials and advocacy groups hope that identifying the health issues will lead to better care for Latinos and can be used to secure additional funding to create programs to help them. Health problems in one segment of the city can put pressure on the health system, raising the cost of care for everyone, officials said.
"By improving the health of various communities, we hope to improve the overall health and vitality of the city," said Baltimore's health commissioner, Dr. Oxiris Barbot.
Latinos are the fastest-growing ethnicity or race in the city, surging by more than 50 percent from 1990 to 2008, while Baltimore's population as a whole declined 13 percent. Census data show about 17,000 Latinos in the city in 2008, or 3 percent of the population.
Officials say the number could be closer to 25,000 or 35,000, as Latinos often go uncounted because of language barriers and immigration fears.
Hispanic enclaves can be found mostly in Southeast Baltimore — in Fells Point, Highlandtown, Patterson Park and Canton. The Hispanic residents hail from countries that include Mexico, Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic and other parts of Central and South America. They are recent arrivals without deep roots in the community.
Angelo Solera, a longtime community advocate, said the Health Department report is long overdue — and is a first step toward closing the gap in health disparities affecting Latinos.
"I don't think it is going to fix all the ills of our society, but it is a good step for moving forward," said Solera, president of Latino Providers Network, which works with groups that offer services to Latinos. "The community is growing. It can't be ignored."
Language and cultural barriers have played a role in limiting access to health care for Baltimore Latinos, the study found. But cost is the main reason that many, who often live in poverty, do not have health insurance. In 2007, the median income for Baltimore residents was $36,949; it was $33,890 for Hispanics.
Nearly three-quarters of the survey respondents said they did not have Medicare, Medicaid or private health coverage during the past 12 months, and 46 percent said the costs are too high.
About 43 percent feared asking for coverage because of their immigration status, while others said they couldn't find providers who spoke Spanish. Latinos in Baltimore were more likely than Latinos in the rest of the nation to be born in another country and speak mostly Spanish. About 84 percent speak only or mostly Spanish.
Community health clinics are filling some of the need. About 40 percent of the patients seen at the Highlandtown Community Health Center are Latinos. The center, part of a network of six clinics owned by Baltimore Medical System, has found much of its Latino clientele through word of mouth.
The Highlandtown facility is able to offer care at lower cost because it is a designated center that receives federal money, and bigger Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements because it serves disadvantaged communities.
Jay Wolvovsky, president and CEO of Baltimore Medical System, said he hoped the city's report would help his company create programs and serve as a tool to win additional funding.
"It gives us a better target to shoot for in terms of developing our programs," he said.
The city has also responded with bilingual brochures and staff at its clinics. But health officials say more could be done.
Some Latinos are skipping care and pushing through illnesses on their own. The report found that among Latinos living in Southeast Baltimore, 20 percent did not get the care they needed. Nearly three-quarters said they had not talked to a doctor, nurse or pharmacist in two years.
Many of the study results mirrored national trends among Latinos.
Barbot said she would like to see further study on some topics. For instance, accidents and unintentional injuries were the third-leading causing of death among Latinos from 2005 to 2007, and the fifth-leading cause among all Baltimore residents. Barbot said data should be collected to see what kinds of accidents were killing people.
In Southeast Baltimore, more than 40 percent of Latino men reported binge drinking, having five or more drinks in one sitting in the past 30 days.
Latina mothers were less likely to receive prenatal care in the first trimester than other mothers in Baltimore. Some did not receive prenatal care, which helps prevents birth defects, during their pregnancy.
Still, Latina mothers had lower rates of low birthweight and preterm babies than other mothers in the city, though the study noted it was still a problem.
Latinos in Baltimore
•Accidents accounted for 11 percent of deaths compared with 2 percent for all residents in 2006.
•40 percent of Latino men in Southeast Baltimore reported binge drinking.
•67 percent of Latina mothers got first trimester prenatal care compared with 74 percent of other mothers.
•The Latino poverty rate was 17 percent compared with 20 percent of all city residents.
•Three-quarters of Latinos in Southeast Baltimore did not have health coverage in the past 12 months.
•20 percent of Southeast Baltimore Latinos said they didn't receive the care they needed.
•16 percent of Southeast Baltimore residents said they smoked.

Out of these I was most impressed by mintInstall and mintMenu . Everyone who has every used Linux Mint knows that these two applications are worth the switch to Linux Mint over Ubuntu. Obviously Mint also has other things to keep you occupied.
So I have finally discovered a way to get the goodness of Mint on your Ubuntu.
I am honestly loving the mintMenu, it is 100 times better than the default Ubuntu menu launcher. mintMenu has these following features which make it standout fromt the other launchers:
2. Filter: This is the killer feature. It gives you an Vista like search box, by which you can search your needed applications quickly.
I only have to type, 'fir ' before mintMenu filters out all other applications. This is an welcome relief from Ubuntu menu, where I have to be careful in selecting out Firefox from the other 50 programs sharing common space under the sub genre 'internet'.
3. Favorites: Favorites is an easy way to keep all your selected apps together.
4. Easier Navigation: mintMenu's 3 pane approach makes you more productive.
Now about the mintInstall:
Most Linux users do know that Synaptic is a delight for newbies. Synaptic allows you to install Softwares without touching the terminal. It makes software installation a one click process. However Synaptic has its own limitations.
Synaptic is a desktop based app, so it has to keep downloading updates to make sure its library of software is complete and up to date. Unfortunately this process isn't so simple. It requires the user to regularly hit the 'Reload' button in order to update it.
This update isn't incremental. Synaptic will redownload the entire file structure for updating itself
There are no user reviews to help user take a decision.
To install mintinstall on your system do this:
1. Go to http://packages.linuxmint.com/ an download the mintsystem ,mintinstall and mintMenu files, pickup the mintDesktop file if you want to. All of them are extremely small in size.
Install them by double clicking on the files. Make sure you install mintSystem first.
2. To get the mintMenu:
Inorder to use the mintMenu, right click on the panel you use and selecet "Add to Panel". Now scroll down until you can see mintMenu. Double click it and enjoy the benefits of mintMenu. You will gat a beautiful "Elyssa Menu". Remove the older Ubuntu launcher by right clicking on it and select "Remove From Panel".
3. Now for the mintInstall: Click on the Elyssa Menu. Now go to Administration > mintInstall. You will get an box like this:
Now search for any application. I am looking Banshee music player.
Now mintInstall will open an webpage, taking you to the appropriate webpage for banshee. If you are using it for the first time, remember it will take some time. The next time mintInstall will work instantaneously.
Now you can read the reviews and download the application by hitting the big "Install Now" button. You will have to download a small .mint file, the size will be in kbs. It is these tiny .mint files which do all the trick!
File System > usr > bin, now scroll down to mintInstall. Thats it!
To browse Linux Mint's extensive list of software to this site: http://www.linuxmint.com/software/ You can install software from this site with a single click. Select Elyssa if you are on Hardy Heron.
If you have any question, post a comment.

Burden of Illness and Treatment Patterns for Patients with Fibromyalgia
– Source: Pain Medicine, Oct 2012
By Rebecca L Robinson, et al.
Objective: This study was designed to describe burden of illness and treatment patterns, and to examine the patient, physician, and care factors associated with the treatment choices of individuals receiving new prescriptions for fibromyalgia (FM).
Design: This is a baseline assessment of the Real-World Examination of Fibromyalgia: Longitudinal Evaluation of Costs and Treatments (REFLECTIONS), a prospective observational study.
Baseline data (including a physician survey, a patient visit form, and computer-assisted telephone interviews) were collected from July 2008 through May 2010 in 58 care settings in the United States, including Puerto Rico.
Patients (N = 1,700) were mostly female (94.6%) and white (82.9%).
Mean age was 50.4 years and mean duration of illness was 5.6 years.
Mean Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire total score was 54.4 (range 0–80), and Brief Pain Inventory average pain severity level was 5.5 (range 0–10).
Patients reported high annual health care use and numerous work limitations related to FM.
Patients were taking 182 unique types of medications prescribed for FM, including:
• Duloxetine [Cymbalta] (26.8%),
Subscribe to the World's Most Popular Fibromyalgia Newsletter (it's free!)
• Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (26.6%),
• Pregabalin [Lyrica] (24.5%),
• Opioids (24.2%),
• Tramadol (15.3%),
• Benzodiazepines (15.2%),
• Cyclobenzaprine (12.9%),
• Milnacipran [Savella] (8.9%), and others.
Most patients took more than one medication concurrently (77.8%).
Type of current medications used was most strongly associated with medication history and physician specialty.
Burden of illness was high for patients with FM, and treatment patterns were highly variable.
Importantly, the treatments with the most evidence to support their use were not always the most frequently chosen.

Update: China's 2014 Solar Target Falls Short, Shares Slump
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
The world's largest solar market China announced that it will maintain its solar power target this year, planning to install 10GW again. China had a record year in 2013, installing 12GW, reportsBloomberg.
The street consensus has been 12GW.
Chinese solar stocks are disappointed today. Shares of Trina Solar (TSL) slumped 7.6%. Yingli Green Energy (YGE) lost 7.2%, Jinko Solar (JKS) dropped 9.7%. ReneSola (SOL) retreated 5.6%, JA Solar (JASO) lost 5.5%.
This is solar bear Raymond James I-told-you-so moment:
Also recall, last week Chinese state TV suggested that the 2014 solar target could be upsized to 14 GW, which no longer appears to be the case.
The lack of visibility on Chinese solar project economics (e.g., module pricing) inherently adds to the uncertainty in quarterly financials.
Bloomberg in-house industry analyst tells us to discount this number though, saying the actual target will be higher:
"The National Energy Administration has mentioned a 14 gigawatt target, and actually sent out a letter to provincial authorities with a 12 gigawatt target broken out by province," said Jenny Chase, lead solar analyst for Bloomberg New Energy Finance. "I don't think this is exactly a done deal yet. China is playing fast and loose with solar targets at the moment."
Update: I received reader comments pointing out that my link to the Bloomberg story was bad. You are right. I copied and pasted a wrong URL. I am sorry.
Here is the Bloomberg story:
I also checked Bloomberg's source. Here is the official document from the National Energy Administration, posted on their website on January 20, saying the solar target is 10GW:
Here is an excerpt from the document. Unfortunately it is in Chinese but you can try Google translate it:
坚 持集中式与分布式并重、集中送出与就地消纳结合,稳步推进水电、风电、太阳能、生物质能、地热能等可再生能源发展,安全高效发展核电。2014年,新核准 水电装机2000万千瓦,新增风电装机1800万千瓦,新增光伏发电装机1000万千瓦(其中分布式占60%),新增核电装机864万千瓦。
I trust my readers' market information. Please let me know if you have more updated information on the solar targets - from reliable government sources - and I am happy to write a new post. You can always reach me at firstname.lastname@example.com, or post comments below the blogs. I read every one of them.
Thank you for catching my error and thank you for your readership!

Granger on Movies: 'Million Dollar Arm'
Following is Fairfield Citizen film critic Susan Granger's review of the new movie, "Million Dollar Arm:"
Over the years, if you've enjoyed Disney underdog sports diversions like "The Mighty Ducks," "The Big Green" and "Cool Runnings," this heartwarming story -- based on actual events -- is for you.
When fast-talking Los Angeles sports agent J.B. Bernstein (Jon Hamm from "Mad Men") loses a major football client (Rey Maualuga), he and his fledgling partner, Aash Vasudevan (Assif Mandvi), are in desperate straits. One night, as he flips channels between a cricket game and Susan Boyle's "Britain's Got Talent" audition, Bernstein comes up with a crazy idea to travel to India and hold a talent contest to find cricket players who can throw a baseball.
Depending on a retired, narcoleptic baseball scout, cranky Ray Pointevint (Alan Arkin), Bernstein goes on a chaotic, three-month search, departing from Mumbai and encompassing picturesque Jaipur, Agra, Calcutta, Bangalore and New Dehli, along with an enthusiastic Hindi interpreter Amit (Bollywood star Pitobash). Backed by a wealthy investor Mr. Chang (Tzi Ma), he brings back two pitching prospects: Rinku Singh (Suraj Sharma from "Life of Pi") and Dinesh Patel (Madhur Mittel from "Slumdog Millionaire").
Baffled by American technology and ensnared in culture shock, the lonely, disoriented boys barely speak English and wind up living with Bernstein, where they're befriended by the compassionate medical student, Brenda Fenwick (Lake Bell), who rents his guest bungalow, as they train with visionary USC pitching coach Tom House (Bill Paxton) and prepare for their Major League tryouts.
Scripted by Tom McCarthy ("Meet the Parents") and directed by Craig Gillespie ("Lars and the Real Girl"), it could have been "Jerry Maguire Goes to India," if not for the innate emotional honesty, poignancy and ingratiating charm of Jon Hamm and the vulnerable, young Indian actors, along with a delightful score by Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman. While rambling, it's sincere, as opposed to schmaltzy.
On the Granger Movie Gauge of 1 to 10, "Million Dollar Arm" slides in with an uplifting 7, this week's feel-good family film.

Thunder only happens when it's raining, and Stevie Nicks is only playing a guest role on "American Horror Story: Coven." But for fans of either the FX series or Fleetwood Mac's resident sorceress, it's still exciting news.
Executive producer Ryan Murphy tweeted Tuesday: "Guess who's visiting the Coven? The legendary Stevie Nicks!"
A spokesman for FX confirmed that the pop singer will do a guest spot on the show. Some reports suggested Nicks would play herself, but the spokesman said he had no details about what role she might play.
But one clue: the "Coven" character of Misty Day (Lily Rabe) worships Nicks, so there's an obvious tie-in right there. Nicks has denied for years that she is a follower of Wicca but stories still linger. In fact, Nicks' Wikipedia page includes a section titled: "Rumors of Witchcraft."
"AHS" would count as a rare scripted-TV appearance for the 65-year-old Nicks, the scarf-clad songwriter behind "Dreams," "Edge of Seventeen" and other hits. But she has appeared in guest or mentoring roles on music shows such as "American Idol" and "The X Factor."
"Coven," which stars Jessica Lange and is scheduled to conclude in January, is the third season in the "American Horror Story" franchise. It's averaging 4.3 million total viewers per episode, according to Nielsen.
What do you think of Nicks and her upcoming "AHS" part?

In designing the Propeller series, Eero Koivisto has renewed the existing typology of the functional T, 3-leg and 4-leg tables and modernized their appearance. Using modern technology, the base has been slimmed down and lowered to increase legroom and sitting comfort. The slender lines of the legs are reminiscent of industrial fans and aircraft propellers, thus giving the series its name. Propeller is a wide range of tables offering extensive variation. Propeller has a slender shape, whereby the form of the table-top and legs run along a single line, finally diverting at the base. The slight taper at the very end of the base keeps the legs sturdy despite their relatively slim construction. "There is great demand for this type of table. The drawback of existing models on the market is that the cast base is high and awkward – I'm sure we've all sat at conference tables and been obstructed by the table legs. I thought about ways of reducing the height to make the tables more comfortable and modern. Using modern technology to laser-cut the steel rather than casting it, we've managed to produce a thinner, slim lined base," says designer Eero Koivisto. "The advantages of using laser technology to create table bases go beyond the purely visual. We use technical reports to make maximum use of the steel. We can also re-use the material, making the product more economical and environmentally friendly," says Kurt Tingdal, CEO of Offecct. Propeller is available in several versions. Table-tops are available in sizes from 60x60 to 240x110 cm. The tabletop is available in white compact or white pigmented oak laminate. Optional cable recess. The frames available in three designs and three heights in chrome or white lacquer.
OFFECCT believes in combining genuine Swedish craftsmanship with qualitative, innovative and sustainable design.

Former Gator star and New York Jets quarterback Tim Tebow is only three years into his professional football career, but he already has thought about his second life after football is over: politics.
In the latest issue of Vogue, he addressed whether he would consider a career in politics, and the answer was a definite probably. He has mostly focused his off-field exploits in building his charitable foundation, but a political future is on his mind.
"You can get looked at in a certain light, or people think, This is this type of person, he wouldn't do this," Tebow explained to Vogue. "There are a lot of goals and ambitions that I have in life, things I want to accomplish. Who knows? I mean—it could be politics one day. I want to have a life that can help people."
Through his charitable work, Tebow is helping to build a hospital in the Philippines, where he was born while his parents were on a Christian mission. He has also visited the country to volunteer at health clinics, somewhat famously assisting a doctor performing circumcisions a few summers ago while he was on summer break at UF.
Most notable from a political standpoint was the antiabortion commercial featuring Tebow and his mother that ran during the 2010 Super Bowl. The ad was produced by Focus on the Family, a Christian nonprofit organization.
Earlier this month, Tebow told ESPN.com, "I haven't ruled out anything like that. It won't be anytime soon in my future, but it'll be something I'll at least look at and consider one day."
If he does test his hand at politics, it seems unlikely he would do so in his current home, New York. Besides the fact that a socially-conservative person like Tebow would have trouble getting elected in the Big Apple, Tebow himself does not seem terribly comfortable in the city, preferring to spend time with his family playing board games instead.
"The city itself is a little overwhelming," he said. "It's going to take a while before I actually build up the courage to drive in."
But Tebow, who grew up in the Jacksonville area, could be the kind of telegenic devout Christian who succeeds in Florida politics. He would not be the first ex-football player to succeed in politics, either. Jack Kemp, the former Buffalo Bills quarterback, served nine terms in Congress before being Bob Dole's running mate in the 1996 presidential election. Former Nebraska football coach Tom Osborne served three terms in Congress as well.

Perry vs. Romney: Now it's personal
LAS VEGAS – After months of diversions — sideshow candidates, Hamlet acts and straw polls — Tuesday night's sizzling Republican presidential showdown boiled the nomination fight down to its essentials: a deeply personal, ideological and smashmouth contest between two rivals with almost nothing in common.
It was clear from the clash here between Rick Perry and Mitt Romney, and the comments of the candidates' top surrogates afterward, that the race had passed into a new phase, stripped of any remaining niceties. Romney may well be the GOP standard-bearer next year, but Perry and the conservative wing will be damned if it's going to let him coast to coronation in Tampa.
Story Continued Below
While he wasn't the only one of the six candidates on stage to take aim at Romney, it was the Texas governor who personalized the fight. The intensely competitive Perry, frustrated with his decline in the polls, sought to mount a comeback the only way he knows: by punching harder. He was jarringly more alive than in his recent debate performances, and his criticism of Romney's record became an attack on his rival's character. With a point-blank attack on Romney's "hypocrisy" for hiring illegal immigrants, the Texan sent an unmistakable message that he won't go away with a whimper.
The usually polished and suave Romney, confronted in the most direct manner to date, was red-faced and animated, so flustered and angered by the attack that he fired back with a taunt: Perry, jabbed Romney, has had a "tough couple of debates."
The visual dimension to the confrontation highlighted the animosity. Perry repeatedly interrupted Romney, Romney put his hand on Perry's shoulder and Perry shot Romney a ferocious glare. It was as intense and intimate a moment as there has been in the campaign so far.
"He's extremely thin-skinned," said chief Perry strategist Dave Carney of Romney after the forum. "He got very rattled, and I think that's something we hadn't seen before."
Stuart Stevens, Carney's counterpart with the Romney campaign, was equally pointed.
"People are looking for a lot of qualities in the next president, and someone who responds to losing debates with anger is not a quality that they particularly like," Stevens said, deeming Perry a desperate hothead. "It's like in a football game, when somebody's losing and they start shoving."

Who runs UK? 'Tories, Lib Dems and Google' says Labour
Harman: Number 10 can't stand up to web giant
Labour's deputy leader Harriet Harman has slammed Google's extraordinary influence over the UK's ruling Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition government.
The Shadow Deputy Prime Minister said "there are three parties in the Coalition: the Tories, the Lib Dems, and Google".
It's the strongest attack yet on the Google-Tory relationship from Labour, which first questioned its political arch-rival's close ties to the web giant in February.
Google's huge lobbying influence over UK policy makers has been criticised by Conservative Party backer and entrepreneur Luke Johnson, who described the online superpower as a parasite, compared it to Rockefeller's Standard Oil, and suggested it should be broken up.
Google paid for Tory Prime Minister David Cameron and his team to fly around the US in 2005 - before he took power at the last election - and leading party figures have close personal ties to the company's executives.
Harman pointed to the Coalition's industrial policy - particularly its assault on the successful UK creative industries - as an example of the Coalition following a Google-friendly but ultimately harmful strategy.
"No 10 can't stand up to Google - and Jeremy Hunt [the minister for culture and media] can't stand up to No 10," she said.
Harman also called for tax breaks for creative industries, and for a revised Intellectual Property Office with a mandate to enforce breaches of intellectual property law - much like the Environment Agency can sue companies for polluting the environment.
A "diversified" UK economy needs more creativity and less reliance on finance, said Harman, who was speaking at the BPI's AGM in London. ®

The London Olympics has led to a re-examination of the role of sport in the British schools system. Some, like London Mayor ( and future Prime Minister) Boris Johnson have called for 2 hours of sports in state schools.
Current Prime Minister David Cameron has stepped into the debate, apparently hoping to quash the dissent from Johnson (Cameron's government had scrapped a modest target for 2 hours of sport a week earlier this year).
However, he may have bitten off more than he can chew with comments on British television today:
"I see it with my own children... because you know, the two hours that is laid down is often met through sort of Indian dancing classes. Now, I've got nothing against Indian dancing classes but that's not really sport."
"The trouble we have had with targets up to now, which was two hours a week, is that a lot of schools were meeting that by doing things like Indian dance or whatever, that you and I probably wouldn't think of as sport, so there's a danger of thinking all you need is money and a target. If that was the solution we would have solved the problem by now."
Cameron's comments about "Indian dance or whatever" have, of course, been picked up in the Indian press. NDTV reports that Cameron seems to be referring to Bollywood style dancing, and his criticisms miss the mark:
Besides its cultural value, 'Bollywood dance' is also seen as an exercise, but contrary to Cameron's remark, there have been few instances of it being taught or performed regularly in schools.
Jennie Jethwani, managing director and co-founder of Bollywood Dance London, has also challenged Cameron to take part in an "Indian Dance" class, the Telegraph reports.

TAMPA, Fla. - Police in Tampa stopped a dozen anti-war protesters from entering an event attended by former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice after the group said it intended to arrest her for war crimes.
The protesters from Code Pink carried handcuffs Tuesday and tried to enter a performing arts center. Rice was attending an event in conjunction with the Republican National Convention. They said they wanted to make a citizen's arrest of Rice, who was Secretary of State when the Iraq War started.
[WATCH: RNC livestream | Tony Pipitone's report | PICS: Local 6 at RNC ]
The officers told the protesters to leave because they were on private property. They went back to the sidewalk and several lay down under sheets made to look like they were blood-splattered.
The group says it will try to arrest other members of the George W. Bush administration.
Meanwhile, Mitt Romney officially clinched the GOP presidential nomination on Tuesday to move a step closer in his five-year quest for the White House.
[DID YOU SEE THESE? Mug shot hall of shame | Fashionable felons | Time machine: Prom photos ]
With Hurricane Isaac churning toward landfall in Louisiana, Republican officials appeared determined to stick to a tightened three-day schedule that kicked into full gear on Tuesday with official business and speeches accusing Obama of failed leadership and undermining the American dream.

Not only did the Steelers lose in shameful fashion yesterday, they also apparently lost another offensive lineman.
According to Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the expectation is that left guard Willie Colon is lost for the season with a left knee injury.
He had missed the previous two games before returning yesterday, but he couldn't finish. When Colon left yesterday's game, he was replaced by Pro Bowl center Maurkice Pouncey, with Doug Legursky coming in to play center.
"It's terrible for him, man," Pouncey said. "For him to be dealing with that for the last couple of years, and now we don't know how this thing is going to turn out, . . . I feel terrible for him."
If he goes on IR, it would be the third straight year he failed to complete. He tore his triceps in the 2011 opener, and an offseason Achilles tear in 2010 ended his season before it began.
Keeping a stable line in front of any of their quarterbacks has been tough, and without Colon, trying to fix a run game or keep Ben Roethlisberger healthy keeps getting tougher.

Rose Hill Cemetery Visit November 2008
After dealing with the consequences of a cemetery on lockdown, it was interesting to visit a relatively rural cemetery that suffered egregiously from years of being unguarded. According to literature from the park service that now owns the land on which the cemetery is located (East Bay Regional Park District) the cemetery was decimated by vandalism from the 1950's through the 1970's. Trucks were driven around the cemetery and smashed into gravestones, and headstones were even stolen. As a result, only about 64 headstones remain in the cemetery, out of hundreds of burials. The cemetery now looks in better shape, as it is under the care of the EBRPD, but there are still aching reminders of what is missing in the many, many jagged headstone fragments left on their bases:
To make matters more complicated, The Black Diamond Mining Company kept their records, which included burial records for the cemetery, at their offices in San Francisco, and those records were apparently destroyed in the fires after the Great Earthquake. I ran across some great articles (like this one and this one) detailing the work of one woman who is working to restore the cemetery and re-establish a listing of all burials within it. I hope to track her down and talk to her about the cemetery more in-depth.
The area in which the cemetery is located is beautiful, and typical of the landscape around here. The hills are a lovely dry golden color throughout most of the year. They take on a greenish hue towards late spring, at least in years when we've had enough rain (which hasn't been any year of late!).
Here's a shot of the cemetery from the trail. As you can see, the cypress trees make it stand out, otherwise it is a lonely little perch on the side of the hill:
For more perspective, here's a longer shot:
From within the cemetery, here are some shots looking back to where the above photos were taken:
I spent about an hour or so photographing all of the remaining headstones, and placed those photos online here.
Some of my favorite headstones:
All in all, a small cemetery, but an historic one. Again, to see photos of all of the surviving headstones, visit the Rose Hill Cemetery page on my website.

What a beautiful, beautiful place. Your photographs have such a wistful, lonely but comforting look. You've done a great job on this post.

actually there are traces left of the communities of Summervile, lots of old crubled brick. As well, digouts where buildings used to be.
Rock on. Beautiful pics

I found this lovely cemetery in Feb. 1950; I was out riding my horse and stopped to rest awhile. The grave stones seemed to reveal a pretty sad time for a lot of families; most were young people- probably struggling mine workers. There are probably many stories of them that we can only suppose.
In 1973 I happened to attend a show of Ansel Adams photos. There in that group was the Cemetery and the cypress trees! I was delighted. Thanks for my trip to Rose Hill after such a long time. Samantha

According to a report from Reuters earlier today, residents within Texas will be forced to pay 6.25-percent sales tax on all Amazon purchases starting on July 1, 2012. An agreement was struck between Amazon management and Texas lawmakers after two years of discussion and legal debate on the matter. After Texas officials agreed to stop attempting to collect uncollected sales taxes between 2005 to 2009 that reached an astounding $269 million, Amazon agreed to start collecting sales tax in addition to bringing more jobs into the state. Specifically, Amazon will create a minimum of 2,500 jobs with fulfillment centers in addition to investing $200 million in capital investments over a period of four years.
Prior to the agreement, Amazon had shut down a distribution hub at the Dallas-Fort Worth airport after Texas State Comptroller Susan Combs sent Amazon the hefty bill for $269 million. This maneuver put 119 Texas residents out of work while Amazon continued to argue that the company didn't have a physical presence within the state.
Amazon attempted to use the same reasoning when battling with California lawmakers last year, but ended up relenting during late 2012. According to a new agreement between California legislators and Amazon officials, the online retailer will start collecting sales tax on September 2012 if Congress hasn't enacted federal legislation regarding a national sales tax for online stores.
Amazon also struck a sales tax deal with Nevada officials earlier this week, thus the retailer will start collecting 8.1 percent sales tax on Jan. 1, 2014. Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval expects to collect an additional $16 million in tax revenue during 2014 from Amazon sales within the state. As listed on Amazon, the online retailer already collects sales tax within Kansas, Kentucky, New York, North Dakota and Washington.
Many other states are in the midst of legal battles regarding the tax issue, some of which are becoming confusing for residents. For instance, Amazon was required by South Carolina lawmakers to reminder residents to report their online purchases during tax time. However, many residents ignored this warning and the state only collected approximately one percent of an estimated $112 million owed in taxes on online purchases.

Our Tick Testing Data
Each tick submitted for testing contributes to the research being conducted here at TickCheck. By keeping records of all the results generated, we have been able to gain valuable insights into disease prevalence and co-infection rates. The comprehensive testing panel has been especially helpful in contributing to this research by ensuring all diseases and coinfections are accounted for when examining a tick. Our current research shows that 69% of tick tested are infected with at least one disease causing organism, 43% are co-infected with two or more, 17% carry three or more, and 6% of the ticks tested carry four or more.

simplify the current subterm
Major Section: PROOF-CHECKER-COMMANDS
Examples: S -- simplify the current subterm (S :backchain-limit 2 :normalize t :expand (append x z)) -- simplify the current subterm, but during the rewriting process first ``normalize'' it by pushing IFs to the top-level, and also force the term (append x z) to be expanded during the rewriting processSimplify the current subterm according to the keyword parameters supplied. First if-normalization is applied (unless the
General Form: (s &key rewrite normalize backchain-limit repeat in-theory hands-off expand)
argument is
nil), i.e., each subterm of the form
(f ... (if test x y) ...) is replaced by the term
(if test (f ... x ...) (f ... y ...)) except, of course, when
f is
if and the indicated
if subterm is in the second or
third argument position. Then rewriting is applied (unless the
rewrite argument is
nil). Finally this pair of actions is
repeated -- until the rewriting step causes no change in the term.
A description of each parameter follows.
:rewrite -- default tWhen non-
nil, instructs the system to use ACL2's rewriter (or,
something close to it) during simplification.
:normalize -- default tWhen non-
nil, instructs the system to use if-normalization (as
described above) during simplification.
:backchain-limit -- default 0Sets the number of recursive calls to the rewriter that are allowed for backchaining. Even with the default of 0, some reasoning is allowed (technically speaking, type-set reasoning is allowed) in the relieving of hypotheses.
:repeat -- default 0Sets the number of times the current term is to be rewritten. If this value is
t, then the default is used (as specified by the
:in-theory, :hands-off, :expandThese have their usual meaning; see hints.
Note: if conditional rewrite rules are used that cause case splits
because of the use of
force, then appropriate new subgoals will be
created, i.e., with the same current subterm (and address) but with
each new (forced) hypothesis being negated and then used to create a
corresponding new subgoal. In that case, the current goal will have
all such new hypotheses added to the list of top-level hypotheses.

ROME (CNN) -- More than 140 Catholic cardinals met Monday at the Vatican, where the process of selecting a new pope edged toward beginning.
The cardinals met twice during the day, in the morning and in the evening. After the evening session, most left by car, though some departed on foot. Few spoke as they left the meeting.
After the morning session, a decision had not been made on when the conclave to select Pope Benedict XVI's successor would start, Vatican spokesman the Rev. Federico Lombardi told reporters.
"It's on the table, but no decision has been reached," Lombardi said.
The General Congregations meeting is a key step before the conclave, in which all cardinals younger than 80 are to meet in the Vatican to vote for the next pope.
Of the 142 cardinals who attended Monday morning's session, 103 were cardinal electors, Lombardi said. Another 12 cardinal electors were expected to arrive later Monday and Tuesday, he said.
During the afternoon meeting, four more cardinals joined those who had already been here; the group decided that congregations on Tuesday and Wednesday would take place in the morning only, he added.
And the Rev. Raniero Cantalamessa, preacher to the Pontifical Household, held the first meditation as outlined by the Apostolic Constitution, Lombardi said.
Benedict announced his intention to step down on February 11 and resigned Thursday, becoming the first pope to do so in 600 years. The transfer of papal power has almost always happened after the sitting pope has died.
Normally, the College of Cardinals is not allowed to select a new pontiff until 15 to 20 days after the office becomes vacant. However, Benedict amended the 500-year-old policy to get a successor into place more rapidly.
The cardinals may to be able to do so before March 15, Lombardi has said.
This would give the new pontiff more than a week to prepare for the March 24 Palm Sunday celebrations.
Some gambling houses are offering odds on who will next lead the Catholic Church.
Favorites include the archbishop of Milan, Italy, Cardinal Angelo Scola; Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone of Italy; Cardinal Peter Turkson of Ghana, who would become the first African pontiff since Pope Gelasius I died more than 1,500 years ago; and Cardinal Marc Ouellet of Canada, who would become the first North American pope.
One former cardinal who won't participate in the conclave is Keith O'Brien of Scotland, who resigned last month. O'Brien apologized Sunday for sexual impropriety, without specifying any incident. "To those I have offended, I apologize and ask forgiveness," he said in a statement.
The Vatican refused to answer questions on Monday about whether it will discipline O'Brien. In response to questions from British journalists, Vatican spokesman the Rev. Thomas Rosica read the statement that O'Brien released on Sunday.
"That is all we can say, is what's been said," Rosica said.
But others did comment. "It looks as if the incidence of abuse is practically zero right now as far as we can tell, but they are still the victims and the wound therefore is deep in their hearts and minds very often," Cardinal Francis George, archbishop of Chicago, told reporters in Rome. "As long as it's with them, it's with all of us and that will last for a long time, so the next pope has to be aware of this."
Philip Tartaglia, the archbishop of Glasgow and apostolic administrator of the Archdiocese of St. Andrews and Edinburgh, will administer O'Brien's archdiocese until a new appointment is made.
"The most stinging charge which has been leveled against us in this matter is hypocrisy, and for obvious reasons," Tartaglia said in prepared remarks slated for delivery Monday night in his sermon at St. Andrew's Cathedral in Glasgow. "I think there is little doubt that the credibility and moral authority of the Catholic Church in Scotland has been dealt a serious blow, and we will need to come to terms with that."
He added, "As for the Church's mission in our country, yes, our credibility and moral authority have been undermined. It will take time, perhaps a long time, to recover these intangible but important realities. But we cannot be defeatist. The answer to this sad episode is not to throw in the towel. We need, rather, to renew our faithfulness to Jesus Christ and to go about our business humbly."
While Benedict has no direct involvement in the selection of his successor, his influence will be felt: He appointed 67 of at least 115 cardinals set to make the decision.
Cardinals must vote in person, via paper ballot. Once the process begins, the cardinals aren't allowed to talk with anyone outside of the conclave. They cannot leave until white smoke emerges from the Vatican chimney -- the signal that a new leader has been picked.
Lombardi said Monday that 4,300 journalists have been accredited to cover the papal conclave.

PORTLAND -- President Obama's State of the Union speech was followed closely by many in the Northwest.
One of those key people had a seat right next to Michelle Obama. The President invited Oregon Governor John Kitzhaber to attend the State of the Union because of his work on health care reform.
"The President understands the value of partnering with states to drive innovation, and it's gratifying for our efforts here in Oregon to be recognized," Kitzhaber said in a statement released by his office Tuesday.
Portland State University geology professor Andrew Fountain hoped to hear a message that includes the environment.
"The glaciers have continued to retreat. They've been retreating since about 1900. And they've accelerated their retreat in just the last 10 years or so," he said.
He wants to see the president push government agencies to to focus on climate change.
"What I hope the president talks about is at least getting the federal agencies together to address these problems," Fountain said.
Oregon business leaders watched too.
"Provide us more certainty," said Rob Cornilles, spokesman for Esco Corp. The Portland-based company makes parts for heavy equipment used in mining and construction and elsewhere. It employs 1,000 workers in Portland and 3,500 around the world.
"I think Esco Corporation, like employers all over the state, are hoping that we have a real sense tonight that our President is going to lead us toward economic recovery with specifics that will motivate businesses to invest and get people to do what they do best, and that is produce," Cornilles said.

Frances Slocum, daughter of Quaker parents Jonathan and Ruth Tripp Slocum, was taken as a young child by Delaware Indians from her home near Wilkes-Barre, PA, in September 1778. At some point later in her life, she married a Miami Indian chief who was called Deaf Man, and they had 2 sons and 2 daughters. They lived near present-day Peru, IN. When her husband retired as chief, Francis Godfroy became the new chief.
On 6 Nov 1838, the government granted Frances' daughter Yellow Leaf (not Frances herself because she was not considered an Indian) a section of land on the Mississinewa River. Two years later, on 28 Nov 1840, "at the Forks of the Wabash, in the state of Indiana", another treaty gave the Miamis 5 years to remove to the Indian Territory (now Oklahoma). Frances' brothers (who had since found her) convinced her to appeal for an exemption and, on 17 Jan 1845, it was granted. Frances died there in 1847, long after her husband. In spite of her elderly brothers' pleadings, she would not return to white civilization - she did not speak English and remembered nothing of white man's ways.

About Me
Originally from Ontario, Canada, my husband's job took us to live in Mexico for 6 years, and we recently moved to the United States. When people ask where we're from, we just say "North America"! I love anything Disney, and travelling all over the world, and I usually have several trips in various stages of planning on my calendar. I also love planning surprises for others - however, my family recently confessed to me that I have surprised them with Disney vacations so many times, they are not really surprised anymore - that won't stop me from trying though! I truly love introducing Disney to families who have yet to discover the joys of a Disney Parks Vacation.
About My Family
We are an adventurous family who laughs a lot and can find fun in just about any situation! With our kids off at college now, we value our travels as a time for our family to reconnect away from our busy lives. We are so proud of the fact that our children mastered the Spanish language during our time in Mexico. Living in a foreign country has definitely opened our eyes to new cultures, which has fueled our desire to see more of the world - Adventures by Disney has been a huge part of that, and we have visited South America, Europe, South Africa and North America with them....next up, Southeast Asia!
About My Disney Experience
My first visit to Walt Disney World was at age 2 1/2, five months after the Magic Kingdom opened! Disney vacations have always been an integral part of my life. We are definitely a "Disney Family." I've taken more than 50 trips to Walt Disney World, 5 to Disneyland, 8 Disney Cruises, 7 Adventures by Disney trips and we are Disney Vacation Club owners at Animal Kingdom Villas and Aulani. In our circle I am definitely known as the go-to girl for all things Disney; family, friends and my husband's co-workers have all come to me for advice and help to plan their Disney Parks Vacations. Living and travelling internationally has definitely given me extra knowledge, which I'm happy to share. Being chosen for the Moms Panel is a dream come true - I'll now have the opportunity to share my passion for Disney vacations with people around the world!

text: Telling the story of soul legend Etta James' turbulent life and features some of her most beloved songs including Tell Mama, Something's Got A Hold On Me, Sugar On The Floor, the heart rending I'd Rather Go Blind, her iconic signature song At Last and more. Vika puts her heart and soul into this unforgettable show and is joined on stage by some of Australia's finest and funkiest musicians. During a long and tumultuous career that saw her win six Grammy Awards and a star on The Hollywood Walk Of Fame, Etta James has influenced a vast array of artists from Diana Ross, Janis Joplin, Stevie Wonder, The Rolling Stones and Rod Stewart and is acknowledged as inspiring the careers of a new generation of singers from Christina Aguilera, Joss Stone, Adele and the late Amy Winehouse. Sadly, Etta's frantic recording and touring schedule coincided with her ever-growing addiction problems and over time she not only sang the blues...she lived the blues. Mercifully, her passion for life and strength of character saw her conquer her demons and she continued to record and perform into her seventies. With respect, this is her story.

OMAN. A powerful local food movement is growing; a movement that is connecting Omani consumers with how, where and by whom their food is grown.
It is forging new pathways to help rural families stay on their home farms and attracting new, young producers to farming and food-related businesses. It is also bringing about a new appreciation for rural production and entrepreneurship among Omani chefs, food companies and retailers large and small.
This exciting new local food movement is up for discussion at the next edition of Inside Stories scheduled for 7:00pm, Tuesday 12 December at the Public Authority for Civil Aviation Training Centre in Al Hail North.
"Decision makers around the world are increasingly recognizing the connections between food and agriculture and a set of broader outcomes, such as public health, the environment, civic engagement, economic opportunity. Job creation and increased levels of happiness," commented Taleb Al Makhmari, Ithraa's Marketing & Media Director General and organizer of the monthly Inside Stories initiative.
Proudly supported by the Public Authority for Civil Aviation and Al Mouj Muscat, panelists for Tuesday night's Inside Stories session include: Sheikh Saleh Al Shanfari, CEO, Oman Food Investment Holding Company; Mr. Robert MacLean, Principal, National Hospitality Institute; Mrs. Zainab Jones, micro-agriculturist; and Mr. James Paul, Managing Director, Al Arfan Farms.
Noting the soaring demand for produce and food grown and raised in Oman, Al Makhmari said: "Opportunities abound for small farms and local food entrepreneurs. But competition is fierce and a fantastic product is, sadly, not always enough these days. To harvest the possibilities of the growing interest in Omani produce, and particularly in healthy organic fruit, vegetables, grain and meat, local businesses need to be sure they know how to brand, package and market in ways that appeal to local consumers," remarked Al Makhmari.
In addition to marketing, packaging, food supply chains and organic produce the 12 December Inside Stories will also explore urban farming.
The UN FAO reports that 800 million people worldwide grow vegetables or fruits or raise animals in cities, producing 15 to 20% of the world's food and this percentage is expected to double in the next 20 years.
According to research from the US Community Food Security Coalition in a 130-day temperate growing season, a 10'x10' metre plot can provide most of a 4-person household's total yearly vegetable needs, including much of the household's nutritional requirements for vitamins A, C, B complex and iron. From an economic perspective, approximately every 400 baizas invested in a community garden plot yields RO2.200 worth of vegetables.
"The growth of urban agriculture is reviving and stimulating local economies like never before and it is creating local jobs," explained Al Makhmari. Ithraa's Director General added: "More economic transactions occurring within a community means more income and work for local businesses. Indeed, the growing demand for safe, locally grown food is leading to increased opportunity for Omani food start-ups, which is in turn fueling job creation."
Tuesday evening's Inside Stories event will also be serving locally grown organic food, supplied by Al Arfan Farms and carefully prepared by catering students from Oman's Tourism College.
Inside Stories is open to the public and free- of-charge to attend. To register, log on to: events.ithraa.om
