GOODYEAR, Ariz. (AP) — Carlos Santana hit a two-run home run off Tyson Ross, enhancing his chance of opening the season as the Indians' starting third baseman and helping Cleveland beat the San Diego Padres 12-7 Wednesday.
Santana is moving from catcher to third base where he is competing with Lonnie Chisenhall for the starting spot. He robbed Chris Denorfia of an extra-base hit with a leaping stab behind the base.
Chisenhall singled and doubled in four trips as the designated hitter to help himself in the competition. He homered on Tuesday against Arizona.
"We want to see the best out of everybody. That's the goal," Francona said. "I wouldn't pull for anybody not to do good so we can have an easier decision."

AbbVie CEO pads $16 M paycheck with $500M in jet travel
Missing Medical History: The story of Brittany Maynard recently made news as she moved to Oregon and took her own life because of terminal brain cancer.

Not laughing ... QI host Stephen Fry has been caught up in the controversy.
Stephen Fry has dropped plans to film in Japan for a new BBC series following a furore caused by his panel show QI.
Fry was due to visit the country for his forthcoming series Planet Word about language.
But the backlash created by a light-hearted discussion of the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki - which led to a BBC apology - has meant the planned trip has now been shelved.
The BBC said "the strength of feeling" in the country led to the change of plan.
The controversy originated from an edition of the Fry-hosted QI in which panellists discussed the case of Tsutomu Yamaguchi, who survived both of the bombs which were dropped three days apart in 1945.
Fry said: "Well, this man is either the unluckiest or the luckiest depending on which way you look at it."
Comedian Alan Davies quipped: "Bomb landed on him and bounced off?"
He later added: "He never got the train again, I tell you."
Fellow comedian Rob Brydon also chipped in: "Is the glass half empty, is it half full? Either way it's radioactive. So don't drink it."
But it led to a complaint from the Japanese embassy in London, accusing the program of making light of the tragedies. The daughter of Yamaguchi - who was 93 when he died last year - also spoke out.
Fry had made it known he wished to clear the air during his visit.
In a message on Twitter in January, he said: "I'm coming to Japan the week after next as it happens, and I'll certainly let my regret known [if they let me in]."
Fry is in Singapore as work on the project continues.
A BBC spokeswoman said on Thursday: "Due to the strength of feeling in Japan at this time, we have decided to alter the filming schedule and itinerary of Planet Word."
Roland Kelts, a half-Japanese author who had been due to work on the parts of the production due to be filmed in the country, suggested the reaction to the QI comments had been over the top.
"In video footage, one can easily see, if one speaks and understands English fluently, that the hosts are tiptoeing around the obvious offence, trying to strike a balance between humour and respect."
He added: "In this age of instantaneous visual language, all subtlety was lost, especially on reactionary right-wing Japanese folks keen to kick up a fight."
The spokesman added later: "Fry's Planet Word was due to film a segment about Asian language in Japan. At the time the program was due to film, because of the strength of feeling in the country, the schedule and itinerary altered slightly."

The Chicago Board of Trade was the world's first futures and options exchange, trading various kinds of commodities (I think mostly agricultural, but I'm not sure). When it first opened in 1848, what commodities were traded there? Any data on commodities (particularly with volumes traded and/or prices) would be very useful.
This website: "The History of the Chicago Board of Trade" has a chronology based on what the Chicago Board of Trade traded with some statistics and descriptions. There is also this online reference to a 1917 text: "History of the Board of Trade" about the Board of Trade's early history.
It appears that the initial trade to go through the Board were "to arrive" or forward deliveries of flour, timothy seed, hay and corn. By 1859, a charter was established to standardise quality and product uniformity, as well as providing results from routine grain inspections.
Of course, there is the Wikipedia page with external links.

Complete Release in PDF Format
LOS ANGELES - The top-ranked UCLA women's water polo team (17-0, 3-0 MPSF) hits the road to play at No. 17 UC Santa Barbara (4-8, 0-2) on Saturday, March 1. Game time is set for 12 p.m. at the Gauchos' Campus Pool. Saturday's match marks the Bruins' only contest this week. The following weekend, UCLA returns home to host No. 2 Stanford and No. 7 San Jose State.
BRUINS SWEEP INVITE: UCLA won the UC Irvine Invitational just two weeks after sweeping the Stanford Invitational. In Orange County last weekend, the Bruins registered convincing victories over Cal State Northridge and Loyola Marymount, before defeating California in the semifinals. The Bruins captured an 8-7 win against second-ranked Stanford in sudden-victory overtime Sunday evening. In the title match, senior Gabrielle Domanic registered the game-winning goal with just seven seconds to play in the sudden-victory period.
WEEKLY DEAL: UCLA has garnered four MPSF Player of the Week selections in five weeks. Junior Katie Rulon has twice earned the weekly honor. Senior Jillian Kraus was named MPSF Co-Player of the Week on Feb. 18, and junior Brittany Fullen was honored as Player of the Week on Feb. 25. Last weekend, Fullen recorded 40 saves in four matches at the UC Irvine Invitational, registering a career-best 15 saves in the Bruins' 8-7 win over Stanford.
BEST START SINCE: Having won the first 17 games of the season, UCLA has registered its best start since 2005, when the Bruins posted a perfect 33-0 record en route to winning the first of three consecutive NCAA Championships.
PERFECT MPSF START: Two weeks ago, the Bruins opened MPSF play with three road wins - at UC Irvine, Cal State Northridge, and Long Beach State. The Bruins cruised to a 13-3 victory over UC Irvine on Friday, as three players each scored three goals. In the win at Cal State Northridge, junior Katie Rulon tallied three goals. Senior Jillian Kraus added four goals in UCLA's 19-7 win at Long Beach State.
BALANCED ATTACK: The well-balanced Bruin offense features five players who have scored 20 or more goals and seven players with 10 or more goals. Katie Rulon leads the way with 36 goals. Jillian Kraus (35), Brittany Rowe (28) and Tanya Gandy (27) round out the team's top four scorers after 17 games.
IN THE CAGE: Junior Brittany Fullen has logged a 5.18 goals against average in 17 matches. Fullen has registered 134 saves in the cage, having played all 68 quarters this season. Fullen tallied a career-high 15 saves against Stanford on Feb. 24, leading UCLA to the UC Irvine Invitational title.
TITLE DEFENSE: The Bruins have won each of the last three NCAA Championships and claimed the MPSF Tournament title last spring. Last season's NCAA title marked UCLA's 100th NCAA team championship, making UCLA the first school to accomplish that feat. Since the sport's inception in 1995, the Bruins have captured nine national championships, six of which are NCAA championships (first NCAA in 2001).
TOP RANKED: UCLA has maintained the No. 1 ranking all season. Conference foes USC, Stanford, Hawaii and California rounded out the preseason top five slots. The Golden Bears are followed by San Diego State, San Jose State, UC Davis, UC Irvine and Hartwick. The Bruins were a unanimous No. 1 selection, garnering all 100 points (preseason).
WHO'S BACK: Entering 2008, the Bruins returned 11 letterwinners and welcomed 12 newcomers. UCLA's five seniors have been a part of the program's last three NCAA Championships. Four juniors have helped UCLA win each of the past two NCAA titles. UCLA also returns one sophomore.
HOME SWEET HOME: UCLA has eight home matches remaining this season at Sunset Canyon Recreation Center. The Bruins will not return home until the weekend of March 8-9, when they will face Stanford and San Jose State on back-to-back afternoons. One month later, UCLA will host six games in a 12-day span.
OFFENSIVE DEPTH: UCLA welcomes back five of six top returning scorers from last season's team. Senior Jillian Kraus (54) and junior Katie Rulon (52) finished the 2007 season as the Bruins' second and third-leading scorers. Junior Tanya Gandy (38) and seniors Brittany Rowe (34) and Gabrielle Domanic (32) rounded out the Bruins' top six scorers.
AT THE HELM: In his 10th season as head coach of the women's water polo team, Adam Krikorian has tallied an impressive 245-38 career record. Krikorian has guided the women's water polo program to six national titles (five NCAA). He also serves as the UCLA men's water polo head coach, having led that program to three NCAA championships in nine years. Krikorian played water polo at UCLA, helping lead the 1995 men's water polo team to its first NCAA title since 1972.

On Friday, January 29, the UM-Flint Video Gamers' Club of UM-Flint will be hosting its first event of the Winter 2010 semester on the University of Michigan-Flint campus on the 3rd floor of the University Center. As always, the event will be open to both U of M students and non-students, and there will be no admission fee. Perhaps more importantly: there will be free pizza and refreshments for everyone in attendance - for free! The event will begin at 5:00pm, and will continue until 10:00pm.
Although there will not be a particular game title focus or sponsored tournament for this event, gamers are encouraged to bring consoles, games, controllers and televisions so that as many people can be included in the gaming as possible.
At the Video Gamers' Club meeting there will also be a contest for PC/Linux/Mac gamers; Jason Sharp, the UM-Flint Campus Representative, will be giving away beta keys for the not-yet-released computer game, Heroes of Newerth. While specific details concerning the nature of the contest have not yet been announced, it will undoubtedly have something to do with video games, and potentially just being awesome in general. Jason Sharp, for further promotional events and details, can be contacted at email@example.com.
To close, the motto of the Video Gamers' Club: Homework can wait until the weekend; it's time to get your game on!

On October 5th, 2009 The Mars Volta came to town and they brought intensity. And by intensity, I mean people's ears are still ringing. They decided not to have an opener on the tour. Instead they presented the audience with a sonic assault for approximately two hours.The Mars Volta were intense because of their relentlessly impressive delivery of super-human jazz fusion. The intensity of the band just oozed out of each member.
The singer, Cedric Bixler Zavala, slid across the stage like a snake in a trance, yelling into the microphone. Omar Rodriguez (guitar) seemed totally lost in the music, swinging his guitar and sliding up and down its neck without any care for conventional musical structure, and it sounded great! Issiah Owens (keyboards) was literally jumping in his seat, hammering his keyboards. Juan Aldrete (bass) played the entire show with his finger-picking hand in a cast but this didn't stop him from keeping up with the rest of the band. Thomas Pidgen, who was a drumming child prodigy (and youngest musician to be endorsed by the company Zildgian) played the entire show with the combined energy of Mike Portnoy (Dream Theatre) and Danny Carey (Tool).
However, during the quieter times of the show, the band acted accordingly, immersing themselves in the music. They would be playing high energy songs like "Drunkship of Lanterns" one second, and the next they would be slowing down to a minimal tempo just to progress into another song.
There was lots of musical improvisation, including an exceptionally jaw dropping bass solo that seemed to last a lifetime which seethed into the next song, "The Widow". The show started with "Son et Lumiere" and "Inertiatic ESP", the two opening tracks of their debut album "De-Loused in the Comatorium", before sliding into their song "Goliath". Cedric sang his best, proving that he sounds just as good in concert as he does on recording.
The backdrop behind the band reflected different colors, depending on the mood of what song they were playing, evoking a great atmosphere to the music. Rarely did Cedric talk to the audience, but when he did, it was to thank everyone for coming out, and how happy the band is doing what they're doing now (a shot at Cedric's former band At The Drive In?)
The band finished the set with "Wax Simulacra", retiring backstage. There was no encore much to the dismay of the chanting, stomping fans, still hungry for more magic. The Mars Volta definitely left the audience with ringing ears and begging for more.

The Second Amendment Foundation, which has become a legal gun rights powerhouse, was back in court today, this time seeking an injunction in U.S. District Court in Massachusetts against the Attorney General's enforcement of regulations that prevent the sale of certain semiautomatic pistols in the Bay State.
The lawsuit, if successful, would be something of a victory for people wanting to purchase new model Glock handguns. SAF is joined in the action by Commonwealth Second Amendment, Inc., two commercial dealers and six private citizens. Those citizens want to buy Glock pistols, and those dealers want to sell them.
At issue, according to SAF, is the way the regulations requiring a loaded-chamber indicator (LCI) on semi-auto handguns are being enforced. The lawsuit contends that the regulation is "unconstitutionally vague and ambiguous" because it does not clearly define what this device is, or what it is intended to do.
On some handguns, an LCI might be a small pin that rises on the slide just above and behind the ejection port. On other models, it could be a red mark on the extractor that appears only when a live round is in the chamber. Some pistols feature a tiny U-shaped notch cut in the top of the barrel breech through which the cartridge case head can be spotted if a round is in the chamber.
Currently, the regulation, as it is being enforced by Attorney General Martha Coakley has "no real foundation," according to SAF General Counsel Miko Tempski, "because there are no specifics about the device in the regulation. Essentially, it appears the enforcement is pretty much on a whim."
"We're asking the court to put a stop to what we believe is arbitrary enforcement of the regulation, because it deems third and fourth generation Glock pistols lack an 'effective load indicator' device," said SAF Founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb in a press release. "How can anyone design something when there is no description, or explanation of exactly what such a device is supposed to do and how it is supposed to do it?"
According to the lawsuit, third-and fourth-generation Glock pistols have an extractor-based load indicator that tells at a glance whether there is a round in the chamber. This setup is virtually identical to extractor-based load indicators on competing pistols from other manufacturers, all of which are legal in Massachusetts.
Gottlieb may have a point, and he's hoping a federal judge in one of the most gun-restrictive states in the country agrees. It's part of his on-going strategy of litigation to correct or undo onerous gun regulations, or at least the way they are enforced, because all they do is discourage firearms ownership, which is a constitutionally-protected individual civil right.
SAF, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year – Gottlieb launched the foundation in 1974 when he was in his mid-20s – has adopted the motto "Winning Firearms Freedom, One Lawsuit at a Time." Over the past few years, the Bellevue-based group has racked up an impressive scorecard, including the 2010 Supreme Court victory in McDonald v. City of Chicago.
That case doomed the long-standing handgun ban in the Windy City, and incorporated the Second Amendment to the states, via the 14th Amendment. Still, many federal judges are reluctant, if not resistant, to changing long-standing attitudes about gun rights. Cases challenging arbitrary carry laws in Maryland, New Jersey and New York have not fared well, and the high court has so far declined to take a case that could overturn those laws.

A new study indicates that when people in hospitals practice "fist-bumping' when greeting one another instead of shaking hands, it spreads fewer germs. In a statement released by the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, which published the study, fist-bumping "still [addresses] the cultural expectation of hand-to-hand contact" between patients and their doctors and nurses without exposing them to possible germs.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there were more than 721,000 healthcare-associated infections in 2011. Of particular concern are antibiotic-resistant infections such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, which are more difficult to treat.
In the current study, researchers tested alternative greetings such as fist-bumping to see if they would spread fewer germs than a traditional handshake. In the experiments, a "greeter" immersed a sterile gloved hand into a container of germs. Once the glove was dry, the greeter shook the hand of someone wearing a sterile glove; the greeter also exchanged a fist-bump and high-five with a recipient wearing a sterile glove. The types of exchanges differed in length of time and the amount of contact.
After the exchanges were done, the gloves worn by the receivers were placed in a solution to count the number of germs that were transferred during contact. Almost twice as many germs were transferred during a handshake as during the high-five; substantially lower numbers of germs were transferred during a fist bump as during a high-five. The longer the person with the contaminated glove had contact with and the stronger their grip was with the person receiving the hand shake, high-five, or fist-bump, the more germs were spread.
"Adoption of the fist bump as a greeting could substantially reduce the transmission of infectious diseases between individuals," said study author, David Whitworth, PhD, of the Institute of Biological, Environmental, and Rural Sciences, Aberystwyth University, Ceredigion, United Kingdom. "It is unlikely that a no-contact greeting could supplant the handshake; however, for the sake of improving public health we encourage further adoption of the fist bump as a simple, free, and more hygienic alternative to the handshake."

Liquipel makes your existing phone waterproof for $59
One of the coolest things being showcased at this year's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona is definitely Liquipel. In short, Liquipel makes your phone (or iPod shuffle) waterproof. The tech can be contracted by phone makers to deploy on a massive scale, but at the same time it's also a consumer service. It is, in fact, the only waterproofing tech available direct to consumers.
The magic happens thanks to nanotechnology that bonds a waterproof coating to the surface (and innards) of your device – at the molecular level. The process only takes around 30 minutes, and it's going to last forever, Liquipel reps have told me. Prices start at $59.
So what do you need to do? Send your device to Liquipel, wait a few days, then get it back. And it's now waterproof.
There are three plans. The basic one costs $59, as mentioned, and will take 1-2 days (plus shipping, of course). For $10 more you can have the Priority service, which ensures that the company will waterproof your device within 2 hours of receiving it (so you'll get it back faster). Finally, $79 buys you a protective film applied to your gadget in addition to the Liquipel treatment. The whole thing takes 1-3 days from when your gadget arrives at the Liquipel lab.
Shipping your phone back to you costs $10 and up (all the way to $58 for next day air shipping). There is a caveat here, though. Actually two. First of all, right now only a limited number of phones are supported (though don't worry, the newest iPhones are a go). The list is sure to expand in the future, so if your particular handset isn't listed on the Liquipel website, do check back in a few weeks – maybe you'll get lucky.
The other, much more painful caveat is that the Liquipel service is only available in the US for now. Yes, like (almost) all cool things, the Americans get this first. A Liquipel rep has however told me that they are planning on expanding globally, but no time frame for that was given.
Still, if you're in the US and would like to stop caring about whether your phone will survive an encounter of any kind with water – do this now. I can't wait for it to be out in Europe.
Here's a short promo video showing Liquipel 'in action':

Environmental Engineering is a multi-disciplinary branch of engineering, concerned with devising, implementing and managing solutions to protect and restore the environment, within an overall framework of sustainable development. It is a discipline that encompasses how we manage resources such as water, materials, land, air and energy. Environmental engineers solve the issues of providing clean water supplies, preventing pollution, recycling and safely disposing of waste, and use engineering to make our world healthier and safer.
The history of making people's lives better through environmental engineering is a rich and exciting one, especially here in London. One of our founding figures in the department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering is Edwin Chadwick, who worked in the 19th century with Charles Dickens to campaign for greater sanitation and to improve the health of the public, arguing that disease arises from correctable environmental causes. Action on this idea has led to saving millions of lives. There is a rich tradition within our Department of investigating engineering solutions in the context of social problems. Please follow the links to discover the exciting projects currently being conducted by our researchers.

A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid. 15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Okay, after several letters to email@example.com I have decided to start posting some best of segmenents from the Errorfm show weekly from 1-4 pm PST. This week there were two very distracting news articles that got my attention. One was pronunciation and the other was a pronouncement that may end up with Vladimir Putin going under the scalpel in a very personal place. It will be rare that Circumcision talk will ever tickle you as much as it will in this episode. Find out what a football field and your sons' donated foreskins can achieve? Yep its in here

Due to "irreconcilable differences" Trish Cyrus has filed for divorce from "Achy Breaky Heart" Billy Ray Cyrus. Trish is seeking full custody of their only minor child, Noah Cyrus, 13. With Trish having full custody Billy Ray will not have physical custody; only allowing for visitation rights. Trish is also asking that Billy Ray pays all of her attorney fees and she is seeking spousal support.
"This is a personal matter and we are working to find a resolution that is in the best interest of our family. We ask that you respect our privacy at this time," Trish tells TMZ.
Three years ago Billy Ray filed for divorce due to speculation Trish was having an affair with rocker Bret Michaels. Billy Ray later dropped the divorce in order to work things out for his family. The couple has been married for 19 years and they have 5 children.
Sadly, not many of the most famous of marriages make it 19 years; so congratulations to them for trying. Hopefully the pair can move on from this heartache in time.
How do you feel about the divorce of Billy Ray and Trish Cyrus?

9 Preparing Survey Data for Analysis
Survey answers usually are transformed into data files for computer analysis. This chapter describes options and good practice for data formats, code development, coding procedures and management, data entry, and data checking procedures. Once data have been collected by a survey, no matter what the methods, they almost invariably must be translated into a form appropriate for analysis by computer. This chapter is about the process of taking completed questionnaires and survey interviews and putting them into a form that can be read and processed by a computer. The process of coding or data reduction involves five separate phases: deciding on a format (the way the data will be organized in a file) designing the code (the rules by which a respondent's answers will be assigned values that can be processed by machine) coding (the process of turning responses into standard categories) data entry (putting the data into computer readable ...

In-stent restenosis
Previous intravascular ultrasound studies have shown that echolucent neointimal hyperplasia occasionally appears after bare-metal stent (BMS) or sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) implantation. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) studies have also demonstrated that paclitaxel-eluting stent (PES) restenosis exhibited similar images showing low signal intensity areas (LSIA) surrounding stent struts and three-layer appearance (TLA). The aim of the present study was to investigate the clinical significance of LSIA on OCT images in various types of stents. Fifty nine consecutive patients who underwent scheduled follow-up coronary angiography and OCT were enrolled. There was no significant difference in the prevalence of LSIA among the 3 stent groups (BMS 30%, SES 19%, PES 28%, P = 0.70). LSIA thickness was larger in the PES group than in the other stent groups (BMS 0.51 ± 0.21 mm, SES 0.35 ± 0.06 mm, PES 0.87 ± 0.19 mm, P < 0.01). The ratio of LSIA thickness to the neointimal thickness was also larger in PES compared with other stents (BMS 53 ± 9 %, SES 57 ± 8 %, PES 77 ± 5 %, P < 0.01). Also, LSIA thickness in patients with in-stent restenosis (ISR) was significantly larger than in those without ISR (0.37 ± 0.37 mm versus 0.12 ± 0.26 mm, P = 0.048). Our results suggest that LSIA might be involved in excessive neointimal formation, and that the healing response after PES implantation might be different from BMS or SES.

Sukkur is the third largest city of Sindh province, situated on the west bank of
Indus River (Pakistan) in Sukkur District. Sukkur (read as Suck-khar, or
sometime Sukhar) is a local variant of Arabic word Saqar which means intense. In
the 10th century AD when Arabs invaded Sukkur (Sindh), they found extreme (hot
and cold) climate, and called it saqar. Sukkur is given a title of Darya Dino
(means the gift of river), as without the Indus this would be like Egypt
deprived of Nile. Sukkur is the central city of Sindh province in Pakistan.
Geography & climate
The district of Sukkur (whose name is derived from its head quarter Sukkur city)
covers an area of 5,165 square kilometers. Geographically it is spanned from
27°05' to 28°02' north latitudes and from 68°47' to 69°43' east longitudes. The
city of Sukkur is located at an altitude of 220 feet (67 m) from sea level,
having terrestrial coordinates 68°52' east and 27°42' north. It is also the
narrowest point of the lower Indus course.
Sukkur district shares northern border with Shikarpur and (recently constituted)
Kashmore districts. Ghokti is located on the north-eastern side while Khairpur
on the south. Sukkur also shares its border with India (Jaisalmir, Rajasthan).
Sukkur is also connected by road air with all major cities of Pakistan.
The climate of the Sukkur is characterized by hot and hazy weather during summer
days while dry and cold in winter. During January, temperature ranges from 7 to
22 °C (44 to 71 °F). The summer (month of June before monsoon) temperature
averages 35 °C (95 °F) though it often reaches up to 52°C (107 °F). Generally
the summer season commences in March - April and ends before October. The
average rainfall of the district is 88 mm, (ranges from 0.59 mm to 25.62 mm) per
Sukkur has been an important strategic centre and trading route from time
immemorial. Alor (present Aror, Sukkur) held the status of capital under the
reign of Musikanos, when Alexander invaded India in 326 BCE. The ruins of this
ancient town still exist, 8 km east of Rohri, in Sukkur district. In 711 CE,
Arab invaded Sindh, led by 17 years old Muhammad Bin Qasim, and Sukkur
(including whole Sindh and lower Punjab) became part of Umayyad Caliphate. Later
Mughals and many semi-autonomous tribes ruled over Sukkur. The city was ceded to
Mirs of Khairpur between 1809 and 1824. In 1833, Shah Shuja (a warlord of
Kandahar, Afghanistan) defeated the Talpurs near Sukkur and later made a solemn
treaty with the Talpur ruler, by which he relinquished all claims on Sindh. In
1843, the British (General Charles James Napier) defeated the Talpurs at the
battle of Miani and Dubbo near Hyderabad and ruled the Sukkur (including Sindh)
until independence of Pakistan. The (current) district of Sukkur was constituted
in 1901 out of part of Shikarpur District, the remainder of which was formed
into the Larkana District. Sukkur saw a significant socio-economic uplift after
1930s, when British Raj built the world largest barrage here on Indus River.
After independence of Pakistan, thousands of Muslim immigrants arrived in Sukkur
while a much larger number of Hindus left for India.
At the time of Pakistan's independence in 1947, Sukkur district comprised
approximately 200,000 habitants, mostly engaged in agricultural pursuits and
fishing industry. Over time, Sukkur has seen a moderate rise in population (2 to
2.5% per annum) as compared to Pakistan's, except in late 1960s and early 70s
when population growth rate reached 4.43% (1972 census) due to internal
migration and establishment of some large bridges on river Indus. According to
official census of 1998, Sukkur has 908370 habitants and density of 175.9
persons per square kilometre. The current estimate (on the basis of 2.88% annual
growth) shows that Sukkur population has surpassed 1 million.
Sukkur district is chiefly populated by Muslims, that constitute 96% of the total
population, of which, the Sunni form a clear majority, about (80%). It also has
a sizeable population of Shias (16%), Hindus (3.28%) and Christians(0.51%).
Hindus are mostly settled in urban areas and are engaged in the trade and
services sectors. Ethnically,Sindhis share the biggest segment of population in
Sukkur and Rohri city areas(70.50%), followed by Urdu (15.50%); Punjabi (7.50%);
Pashto (2.50%); Seraiki (1.00%); Baluchi (1.00)and others (2.00). Baloch tribes
include, Mirani Rind, Chandio, Gabol, Khoso and Leghari. Others include Indhar,
Ansaris, Mahers, Syed, Mughals, Soomro, Mangrio, chijjan, Phulpoto, Palh and
many more. There are Memon, Punjabi and Siraiki sections. Traditionally Memons
were associated with trade and retail business but during last two decades they
have ascended as an active social and economic front. Soomro are basically
associated with educational and social fields; for their development they
perform steps ahead day and night.Terhaily family are basically saraiki
speaking,and mostly are associated with profession of law, medical and
