Monday Marks Hottest Day Of The Year In Minnesota…So Far
Health officials are urging Minnesotans to take precautions in dealing with high temperatures and humidity. The National Weather Service says the humidity will make temperatures feel like 100 to 110 degrees Monday across much of Minnesota.
Good Question: Why Do We Only See The Flu In The Winter?
Minnesota's official influenza season started in October and will last through April. It's the same for much of the northern hemisphere. In the southern hemisphere, the months are reversed. Flu season down happens during their winter – from May through September.
Hot Spell Pushes Xcel To Near Record Power Use
Buzzing cicadas signal yet another hot August day. But it's the scorched lawn and grinding of an air conditioner that are Brett Severson's clue. "My A/C is running all the time — I'd guess my bill is about $400 a month," Severson said.
Heat Wave Closes Dozens Of Mpls. Schools For Rest Of The Week
Classes are canceled for the rest of the week at 27 schools in Minneapolis. High humidity and sweltering temps, combined with some buildings lacking air conditioning has canceled class on Thursday and Friday at more than two dozen schools, which will then resume class on Tuesday, Sept. 3. Students will not need to make up the canceled days.
Fairgoers Cope With Record-Setting Heat
Extreme heat is the most dangerous type of weather, causing more fatalities than flooding, lightning, hurricanes and tornadoes combined. Appropriately, fairgoers are taking Monday's temperatures seriously while still having fun. On a second day of record-breaking heat and oppressive humidity, fairgoers arrived with water in hand and armed with a plan to stay cool. For members of the Jefferson High School marching band, beating the heat began days in advance when musicians began getting used to consuming lots of water.
Summer Heat Returns After Taking The Month Off
You can't call it the calm before the storm because there's no sign of severe weather – just a whole lot of heat and humidity. Summer, in the scorching sense, hasn't made an appearance in quite a while. Recently it's felt almost like fall. But like a carefree kid getting ready to head back to school, a reality check is also on the way in the form of 90-degree weather.
Good Question: Where Do Mosquitoes Hide In The Day?
After a long Fourth of July weekend at the cabin, many Minnesotans return home scratching the dozens of mosquito bites all over their bodies. We've all noticed that it seems like they're worst at night, so Cory in Faribault wanted to know: Where do mosquitoes hide in the day? According to Kirk Johnson, an ecologist with the Minnesota Mosquito Control District, it starts 20 minutes before sunset and lasts for about 2.5 hours.
Good Question: What's The Difference Between Dew Point And Humidity?
It's not too hard to find the words to describe the Twin Cities' weather over the past few days. "Sticky," said one person. "Hot and steamy," said another. "Clammy," another said.
Parades, Festivities Go On Despite 101 Degree Heat
Richfield's parade carried its typical patriotic tones, but with some major warmth added in.
Xcel Energy Is Ready For The Heat
The heat is putting stress on the power grid, but Xcel Energy says it's ready.
Climatologist: Minn. Is Getting Hotter & More Humid
Trends in climate data show much of Minnesota is getting hotter and more humid with each year. Pete Boulay with the State Climatology Office explains what it means when you hear the term "dew points."
Heat Advisory Kicks Off Hot Holiday Week
Your forecast today: hot. Your forecast tomorrow: still pretty hot. Your forecast for the remainder of the holiday week: potentially firecracker hot.
Weather Blog: Summer Heat
Monday was the comfortable one with low humidity and temperatures peaking below average in the 70s. Tuesday will be the average one with highs climbing into the low 80s with a southeast wind blowing 10-15 mph.
Get Ready For More Heat & Humidity
After near-record breaking heat on Saturday, Sunday will take the cake in terms of both heat and humidity. According to WCCO meteorologist Lauren Casey, we were 15 degrees above average on Saturday. The high of 92 degrees was just three degrees shy of the record, set in 1976.
Weather Blog: Stormy Start To August
We started the month with damaging winds, flooding rain and a muggy day as well.

The Smoking Gun has dug up some entertaining testimony from the trial of
David Kernell, the 22 year-old hacker convicted of breaking in to then
vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin's email in 2008.
Specifically, it's the testimony of Christopher 'Moot' Poole, founder
and administrator of 4Chan, the image board on which Palin's password
was posted.
Moot was called in to testify about 4Chan and the data he turned over to
investigators. But, for some reason, both the prosecution and defense
felt the need to question him about 4Chan slang. Nothing in the rest of
the testimony makes it clear why these questions needed to be asked, but
they're a lot of fun:

Other sources of data for health analysis |
2013-11-14 18:53:26
A variety of data sources can be used to generate health analysis and evidence for public health purpose. Data sources vary from country to country, depending on the level of development of health services and other institutions and availability of human, economic and other resources. In general, data on the demographic characteristics of the population can be obtained from the census or the National Vital Statistics Institutes. Regarding health data, usable sources of data potentially include the surveillance systems for mandatory diseases, hospital discharges, routine registry reports or special surveys. Despite the fact that most morbidity data available in the countries would not be representative of the whole population, this information has the potential to produce evidence for health policies.

Health Situation Analysis |
2013-10-24 14:00:39
A major part of the Health Information and Analysis unit's work is the production of evidence to support institutional decisions on a wide scope of health issues, orient technical cooperation to countries, and document the health situation in the Region. The unit also provides cooperation to member states in strengthening their analytical capacity, by developing and providing methodological and technological instruments to support Health Situation Analysis. For further information about PAHO's activities in health situation analysis, please contact email@example.com Generating evidence in health is a process that involves the collection of morbidity and mortality data, the analysis of those data, and the dissemination of the information generated through the analysis. This is a useful input for decision-making in health. In many cases, the evidence originates in the results of research based on different types of designs used in the health field, including population studies. The Health Information and Analysis unit is in charge of the development and maintenance of information systems for mortality and core health data for countries of the Americas. The mortality database maintained by PAHO, known as the Regional Mortality Information System, is a major source of data for analysis of mortality situation and trends.
Additional documents: Non Communicable Diseases in the Americas, Basic Indicators 2011 (PAHO) For further information about PAHO's activities in health situation analysis, please contact email@example.com The need for training health personnel in epidemiology and health situation analysis is a constant in the Region of the Americas. To respond to this need, PAHO develops methods and guidelines for health situation analysis and offers training opportunities. Jointly with PAHO country Representations, the Health Information and Analysis Unit offers a workshop on basic epidemiology for personnel at the local level in Spanish, Portuguese, and French (MOPECE). An online certificate program in Spanish is also available through PAHO and the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health. :: Training modules and courses

In agreement with PAHO/WHO's Member States, 9 targets and 26 indicators were chosen that reflect the different strategic dimensions of PAHO's work and are organized along the three axes of the 2014-2019 strategic plan.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
i felt silly when asked to ID this, but it just doesn't match up to very much as far as i've found. The hook on the J could be custom, but the whole logo/type is handled so generically that i didn't believe that.
Name: "Jiffi Stop"
-hook on the uppercase J (maybe custom)
-short tops on the lowercase f
-inside of uppercase O not perfectly circular
-uppercase T elements totally vertical (before skew/ital)
any ideas? (Thanks in advance!)
(this just smacks of something pretty obvious to you pros, but im in the dark :\)
there are a handful of "similar, but not it" fonts on myfonts.com
beton - http://new.myfonts.com/fonts/efscangraphic/beton-sh/xbold/
hunter - http://new.myfonts.com/fonts/aboutype/hunter/black/
I'm thinking it's probably a font, rather than a completely custom job. A custom job would never have passed up on the opportunity for an FFI ligature! It is likely, however, that the letters got a few tweaks along the logo design path.
Beton is very close. Geometric Slabserif 712 from Bitstream is another close one, but I have yet to find an oblique.
If you'll indulge the diversion, here are a few products that didn't pass up the chance to class up their act by sneaking in a 3-letter ligature.

This relates, I believe, to CCW for defense.
Does anyone remember seeing a post (here or any gun related forum) showing 2 apartment doors, 1 with a "No guns zone" (gun in red circle struck out with a diagonal) the other with a IDPA or IPSC target with many rounds in head and heart areas? I hate to ask, but I really would like to find it again.

.- The Bishops' Conference of Mexico said this week educational reform must not be politicized and must have as one of its primary goals the promotion of the best teachers possible.
In a statement signed by conference secretary, Bishop Jose Leopoldo Gonzalez, the bishops recognized the invaluable contribution of teachers "to the formation of the future generations, and consequently, to the progress of our country." Children and young people learn "to socialize and develop their abilities" at school, they said.
The bishops also pointed to the failures in Mexican education, such as the high drop-out rates and the lack of quality teaching. "The quality of education is perhaps the most serious problem we face. Just as going to school and learning are not synonymous, neither are having a degree and being professional competent," they said.
Therefore, the bishops continued, in response to proposed educational reform, "The Church believes that what is most important is that all voices be heard, but most especially those of teachers."
They went on emphasize the training of teachers as an important factor in "overcoming the problems of education in Mexico," thus ensuring that Mexican schools are always staffed by the best teachers.
