Libertarians Pursue New Goal: State of Their Own
By PAM BELLUCK
Published: October 27, 2003
KEENE, N.H. — A few things stand out about this unprepossessing city. It just broke its own Guinness Book world record for the most lighted jack-o'-lanterns with 28,952. It claims to have the world's widest Main Street.
And recently, Keene became the home of Justin Somma, a 26-year-old freelance copywriter from Suffern, N.Y., and a foot soldier in an upstart political movement. That movement, the Free State Project, aims to make all of New Hampshire a laboratory for libertarian politics by recruiting libertarian-leaning people from across the country to move to New Hampshire and throw their collective weight around. Leaders of the project figure 20,000 people would do the trick, and so far 4,960 have pledged to make the move.
The idea is to concentrate enough fellow travelers in a single state to jump-start political change. Members, most of whom have met only over the Internet, chose New Hampshire over nine other states in a heated contest that lasted months.
(The other contenders were Alaska, Delaware, Idaho, Maine, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Vermont and Wyoming. One frequently asked question on the project's Web site was "Can't you make a warmer state an option?")
Once here, they plan to field candidates in elections and become active in schools and community groups, doing all they can to sow the libertarian ideals of curbing taxes, minimizing regulation of guns and drugs, privatizing schools and reducing government programs.
"We want to make New Hampshire our home, and we want to make it a better place for everybody," said Elizabeth McKinstry, a project spokeswoman. "Many times government gets in the way."
One appeal of New Hampshire is the state's reputation for flinty individualism (although it has only about 400 dues-paying Libertarian Party members). The 150 Free Staters already living here lobbied hard for the state, and Gov. Craig Benson, a Republican, met with visiting members and told them to "come on up, we'd love to have you."
If the idea catches on, the movement may benefit from the unusually high political profile New Hampshire has because of its early presidential primary.
Some Free Staters plan to move when the project attracts 20,000 participants, which it hopes to do by 2006. But many intend to move sooner, and a few have already arrived.
"Having so many people move into a state means we can really raise issues," Mr. Somma said. "Once we start to elect people to the Statehouse, I think the low-hanging fruit will be issues like educational reform and medical marijuana."
Keene, a college town of 24,000, is not the only Free Stater destination in New Hampshire. Indeed, as many members acknowledge, one quandary for a movement of individualistic people is that it can be hard to get everyone on the same page.
Devera Morgan and her husband, Bruce, a computer consultant, plan to move soon from Royse City, Tex., possibly to far-north Coos County or the White Mountain town of North Conway. "I didn't think I would ever leave Texas; that's how much I believe in this project," said Ms. Morgan, 34, who wants to lift restrictions on home schooling and says she may run for office in New Hampshire.
Although Jackie Casey had voted for Wyoming, she just moved from Portland, Ore., to Merrimack, between Nashua and Manchester, renting a basement apartment with her cat, Soopa Doopa Hoopa, and her two 9-millimeter handguns. (She wants a machine gun "or at least a rifle" for Christmas.) She has already hung one wall and her bathroom with framed posters of Frank Zappa, who was a libertarian himself.
"I don't like to go places that don't let me have my gun," said Ms. Casey, 33, who sells memberships to a Las Vegas survivalist training institute and models for comic books (her likeness has graced the cover of one called Reload). Her New Hampshire plans include starting eight businesses "because nine out of every 10 fail, and I've already started two, so I need to do eight more."
"I want to be a billionaire in my lifetime," she added, "and I don't want to live among people who think that's bad."
One project member chose the tiny town of Freedom. Also planning to move to New Hampshire are two candidates for the 2004 presidential nomination of the Libertarian Party.
Some project members favor zeroing in on one county or town to maximize their influence, and are scouting out about 30 communities light on property taxes and strictures like building codes. "We completely support and respect that," Ms. McKinstry said. "We just would never dictate to people."
The Free State has its opponents here, and shoulder shruggers too.
"If you've got people saying we just want to mind our own business, keep government out of our lives, hey, we all feel that way," said Kathy Sullivan, chairwoman of the state Democratic Party. "But if they want to have a radical change in our form of government, no, you're not welcome here."
Michael Blastos, Keene's Democratic mayor, said he was not concerned because Keene had too little housing to accommodate many newcomers, and "anything at all that would stimulate the voters and get them stirred up is a good thing."

The customer experience for a retail banking or credit card consumer may have never been as bad as it now. The government did what it could to help an industry that basically imploded, intervening particularly on behalf of consumers to protect their rights. But by the time the dust settled, people's faith in their banks, credit card companies, and lenders had been severely –and in many cases, irreparably– damaged. This unfortunately comes at a time when people need more help than ever with managing their finances and staying out of debt.
This situation poses a big challenge for how companies can make meaningful connections with their customers – particularly when those customers are virtual. Smart Design's Interaction Design Director Ted Booth will share his team's internal research on human relationships, and the ways in which companies can build better connections with retail consumers. Ted will cite the advent of several innovative, nimble online finance companies who are building relationships with customers in new ways that defy traditional marketing models, and will explain how we as user experience practitioners can apply these insights to the art of building transparent, trust-building, and positive customer experiences online.
Ted designs technology products and services but cares more about people than technology in the end. He is the Interaction Design Director in Smart's New York office, leading the design of new experiences for a wide range of consumer electronics, mobile devices and networked services. Prior to joining Smart, Ted led interaction design at Motorola Enterprise Mobility for rugged mobile computers, RFID devices, and mobile applications. He was also the Interaction Design Director at Method, a brand experience firm specializing in identity, web design, and product user interface. He began his design career as an interaction designer at MetaDesign in San Francisco. He holds a Masters of Design from Illinois Institute of Technology. His clients include: Bell Canada, Groupe SEB, HP, Microsoft, Motorola, Toshiba, World Kitchen, Autodesk, Gucci, Johnson & Johnson, and Palm.
LBi is a new breed of agency with the strategic, creative, media and technology chops to make brands desirable wherever, whenever and however people choose to engage with them. We base our full-service claim on our heritage, which lies in the early pioneering years of digital communications.

Restaurant Guide: Cathedral Hill & Grand Avenue
Updated 8/17/2012
What is "civilization"? Is it dozens of European beers on draft? Espresso and cappuccino? World-class clad cookware? Great local cheese? Thanks to eateries like the Happy Gnome and Cafe Latté and shops like the Cooks of Crocus Hill and Golden Fig, the Cathedral Hill/Grand Avenue/Summit area of St. Paul charts highly on the gastronomic evolution meter. The opening this year of a new Brasa outpost on Grand heralds good things. The layout of the area is conducive to walking, biking and general exploration, making it a perfect place for tourists to explore -- and for locals to cruise in search of good eats. And for those who care about local beer, it's worth knowing that a little brewery named Summit makes its home in this general neck of the woods.
- James Norton
Cafe Latté
- Cuisine: American casual, bakery, coffee.
- Price range: $$.
The popular upscale cafeteria, a Grand Avenue landmark for more than 20 years, is noted for its decadent chocolate layer cakes and other sweets. On the savory side, the large-scale sandwiches are made to order with house-baked breads, soups and salads. Pizza and bruschetta are the focus of the wine bar menu. An afternoon tea, served daily from noon to 5 p.m., is a pleasant respite, with a pot of tea, little cucumber-cream cheese sandwiches, scones, shortbread cookies and one of the bakery counter's desserts. --Rick Nelson
Moscow on the Hill
- Cuisine: European, Russian.
- Price range: $$.
Hearty, well-made Russian fare (blinis, pierogis, borscht, pelmeni, smoked fish and other standards) is on the menu at this Cathedral Hill sweetie, which also boasts what has to be the Twin Cities' largest selection of vodkas. Na zdorovye! --Rick Nelson
User picks
The Happy Gnome
- Cuisine: American casual.
- Price range: $$.
The Happy Gnome is a cozy restaurant that combines a worthy lineup of draft beers with high-end dining-worthy gourmet food. I went there on Sunday morning to try their brunch. We settled in at the bar, and got a couple Surly Coffee Benders -- the perfect way to start a Sunday: rich, dark ale brewed with enough coffee that you can justify having one before noon. I ordered the build-your-own grilled cheese sandwich, with asparagus, caramelized onions, and tomato. We also got the veggie omelet, which was bursting with flavorful vegetables and herbed cream cheese. This is not your average bar food.--momoperry
The Muddy Pig
- Cuisine: American casual.
- Price range: $$.
This is shiznit for beer and ale in the Twin Cities metro area, period (no apologies to Bulldog, Williams, Happy Gnome, etc.). The bar fare is solid -- a rockin' Cubano! The single malt selection is better than most, too.--twisspat
La Grolla
- Cuisine: Italian.
- Price range: $$.
I have never been disappointed at La Grolla. I love the little cozy atmosphere and the way I am always treated as a friend, not just a customer. All of the food is good, including the simple stuff (puttanesca, penne alla vodka, fettuccine alfredo) and the specialty stuff (an amazing veal pasta dish never goes wrong). The bread that comes before the meal is crusty and delicious, and the olive oil and balsamic vinegar dipping are excellent. --raerae17

I believe so. If I disable a modem for whatever reason, phone line problems, testing, etc... it sure would be nice if faxstat told me that it modem can't send or receive.

ISM Services Chair: 'It's Ugly Out There'
The Institute for Supply Management's service-sector index tumbled 7.1 points to 37.3, a new low for the 11-year-old index. The most troubling signal came in a sub-index for employment, which plummeted to 31.3 from 41.5. (Index readings below 50 indicate contraction from the prior month, based on a survey of supply executives.)
The employment figure comes on top of worrisome numbers from ADP, Challenger and the Labor Department's jobless claims reports. Some analysts said the ISM figure correlates to payroll declines of more than 500,000 in the government's November employment report on Friday, well above most economists' forecasts that top 300,000.
Anthony Nieves, chair of the ISM's nonmanufacturing survey committee, in an interview called the overall report "dismal" and could find little positive to say about the employment picture.
"In previous months, we had talked about companies culling the workforce," Mr. Nieves, who is also senior vice president for supply management at Hilton Hotels Corp. "Now this is cutting, period. It's ugly out there. It's not about doing away with the activities that were nice to have. This is, how do we limp along until things get better?"
"It looks like everyone is looking at all of 2009 as being this type of dismal economy," Mr. Nieves said. "So that's what they're gearing up for."
The only sector with month-over-month employment growth: information. That may be a function of companies looking for other ways to cut costs, beyond cutting labor. "I get asked all the time, 'How do we get more efficient? How do we do the same with less?'" Mr. Nieves said. "People are looking to leverage technology."
Health care and social assistance was the only individual sector showing growth as measured by its overall composite index; at 51.5, however, it was only a small gain from the prior month. The worst off: transportation and warehousing (22.5); arts, entertainment and recreation (24.9); and real estate, rental and leasing (25.0).
Can it get much worse? "Everyone's hoping that we're seeing the bottom here," Mr. Nieves said. "We're really down there" –Sudeep Reddy

When a patient has a disease or injury in the eyeball itself, an ophthalmologist can look at the cornea and the lens, or into the eye at the retina and see an abnormality inside the eye, but if the problem is behind the eye in the optic nerve or in some of the visual pathways in the brain - it is harder to be sure what is going on. So the general health of the whole person needs to be considered.
At the UIHC these patients are sent to the neuro-ophthalmologists, so they can use some of their special tests and special skills. A neuro-ophthalmologist can be an ophthalmologist or a neurologist by training. After taking a residency and becoming Board Certified in one of these two specialty areas, they take a fellowship in Neuro-ophthalmology (1 or 2 years) before starting to practice neuro-ophthalmology.

A Quote by "Mahatma" Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi on religion, politics, truth, and love
To see the universal and all-pervading Spirit of Truth face to face, one must be able to love the meanest of creation as oneself. And a man who aspires after that cannot afford to keep out of any field of life. That is why my devotion to Truth has drawn me into the field of politics; and I can say without the slightest hesitation, and yet in all humility, that those who say that religion has nothing to do with politics do not know what religion means.

When was the first Traffic Jam?
Traffic Jams: we've all experienced them and all hate them. But when did this expression come into use? The first traffic jams probably occurred in the earliest civilizations when farmers carried their produce on carts to sell at the city markets and found themselves all trying to squeeze through the small city gates under the watchful eyes of the guards on duty. But what about the use of the words in print?
The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) states that both Traffic, meaning the passing of vehicles along the road, and Jam or Jammed, meaning things packed together unable to move, originate from early 19th century. But as to when the two words are put together, the earliest mention in print that I can find is from New York's, The Sun newspaper, March 17, 1888, in the headline Traffic Jammed Streets. The article then goes on to use the words traffic and jammed, but not together.
Traffic Jammed Streets
There isn't quite enough room enough to get around in yet
Source: Chronicling America: Historic American Newspapers
The San Francisco Call of October 20, 1904, is the first reference that I can find to Traffic Jam in the body of the article.
It was in a traffic jam on lower Third street that Moses Isaacstein's head was smitten with a whip in the hand of John Leonardino. Mr Isaacstein was diving a horse and wagon and when he "turned out" to permit the passage of a southbound car chockful of passengers his vehicle collided with a heavy dray hauled by two horses steered by Mr. Leonardino.
Source: Chronicling America: Historic American Newspapers
The next references appear in newspaper headlines.
Fog ties up traffic, Jam at Grand Central – January 1905, New York Tribune; and, Traffic Jammed February 1906, The Sun (New York).
There quickly follows use of Traffic Jam in the body of the article in many newspapers across the US, with journalists obviously catching onto its use.
There may be earlier references and as online archives are opened up then I am sure these will be found.

Thanks, AF. I love word history articles like this (I even have my own website for it at firstmention.com). The NY Times archives have a 'traffic jam' headline that dates back to 1901, and probably belongs in between your mentions of the references in The Sun, and The Call. The same article also uses the phrase 'rush hours' (with quotes in the original), which may also be a very early use of this phrase.
Interestingly, the traffic jam appeared to occur on the Brooklyn Bridge, though the bridge itself isn't called by that name, but is only referenced as 'the bridge', along with mentioned of hundreds of Brooklynites inconvenienced by the traffic jam.
O'Henry wrote a short story about a traffic jam in NYC, obviously before he died in 1910.
A shy young man is taking his girlfriend to the station or ship in a cab, and they get locked in a traffic jam for so long that he finally proposes – successfully.
The last paragraph is his father's settling with a man who organized the traffic jam: so much for draymen, etc., more for the couple of cops.

I have been to pfr five times and every time I go with friends we either catch nothing or baby fish. Just went 5/31/11 and the guy told me they stocked catfish corner twice recently and only managed a 1lb channel with using four poles and various baits. Recasting every 20 min and changing baits. Using Minnows, worms, and liver tight lined and bobbered., Tried multiple spots. Later on caught some baby bass and bluegills. Thats the best I have done there.
I never see any decent size fish swimming when the water is clear. There is a lot weeds already so forget about lures unless your on a boat. I always keep an eye out for anyone else catching anything and the biggest fish i seen caught was a 5lb carp. So if i can see 20 people fishing from my spot and they have two rods each thats 40 rods that are not getting any bites. The road you drive on is pretty bad. Has a lot of big pot holes. Would not take long to fill in those with some rocks maybe a half a day for a couple guys. . It seems like they don't want you to catch fish. They open at 7 which is kind of late for fisherman. And the boats have a loud chained anchor that scares away the fish. Weeds everywhere.
The place is pretty clean and is good to bring the family and barbeque but I would not recommend the place for just fishing. Unless bluegills keeps you happy. This place is either very hard to fish or they stock it regularly with baby fish.

There is seldom an excess of good news coming out of Afghanistan, but until the triumphant success of the presidential election on Saturday 5 April, optimism was in notably short supply among the Kabul-based foreign press corps. There were good reasons for this. As the election drew closer and the number of attacks by the Taliban increased, Kabul was particularly badly hit and institutions associated with foreigners or the

Three Visio Tips: Special Deliverables
No column on information architecture deliverables would be complete without at least some mention of tools. Dan Brown offers three tips on using Visio, Microsoft's diagramming application, that should make your life easier and more efficient.

Spend any time with Visio and you'll find yourself wondering how glue works. In the real world, it's pretty straightforward: put glue between two things and they'll stick. Although glue is used for sticking shapes together in Visio, the metaphor ends there.

Visio Power Tips #11: Rotate, Change & Flip Text
How to add, change, flip and control the text in your diagrams. For example, if you have a lot of shapes in the same flowchart – and need to add text instructions – it can be hard for the reader to see the text clearly. This makes your diagram looks crowded and hard for business analysts to understand the process flow or use case.

Well, it's that time again and I didn't see the Pantry/Freezer Challenge thread, so I'm starting it.
I've been fairly good this year, and still noticed that I have some venison sausage and venison round steaks in the freezer that someone had given me. Also would like to use up some of my spices so that I can replace them with organic or Penzey's.
Over this past week I used up some venison summer sausage by subbing it for kielbasa in a chicken/sausage gumbo. Worked great. Also tried Italian Beef Stew (CL) using up some rather tough sirloin my DH had bought. Used the crock pot instead of the dutch oven and it turned out great. DH loved it.
Since he travels a lot for his job, I tend to focus on soups or casseroles, so I can make ahead, and then reheat when he is home.
I'm going to be working on special recipes to use up some of my spices, like the last of a big, big Costco container of cinnamon, a jar of pumpkin pie spice, some allspice, and a lot of dried parsley, to name a few.
Anyone else up for the Challenge this year?

As the Vista operating is new and the users are having many minute problems regarding different matters with respect to it. A problem that is very common now days and a lot of people are facing it. The New Contact Group button is not been shown not shown into Vista Contacts folder.
Do have noticed how the button is completely missing from the toolbar.
To change the folder and eliminate the problem so that Windows Vista realizes that it is a contacts folder not something else, just do a right-click anywhere in the folder, and then choose the option Customize This Folder from the menu.
Now when the customize tab opens then change the option "Use this folder type as a template" to Contacts instead of the previous one "Pictures", or whatever it was set to previously.
Now when you will look at your Contacts folder, you will see the New Contact Group button as well as the other relevant buttons in the window.
According to me there should really be some better way to define the folder type instead of this.
When you open the Windows Contacts folder, there is a possibility of following buttons to be missing from the Command Bar:
Missing Buttons:New ContactNew Contact GroupImportExport
This problem happens if the folder type template for the Contacts folder is incorrectly defined. You can follow these steps to fix the problem easily and the right way:Open the contact folder
Right-click an empty area in the folder, and choose the option Customize This Folder…In the option of folder type drop down box, then select Contacts
Then Click OK to proceed
The missing buttons will be restored Command bar and here you are done. Your problem is solved.

Hello! I'm Jolane Abrams, energy healer with Healing in America, the US affiliate of The Healing Trust (formerly the National Federation of Spiritual Healers) and apprentice of Don Juan Tangoa Paima in Iquitos, Peru. Welcome!
I provide Amazonian-style shamanism to my clients. This involves using sacred songs to call the spirits (of plants, animals, angels, saints, God, etc.) to unblock energy and remove spiritual obstacles. I also do energy healing (either hands-on or hands-off) according to Healing in America guidelines.
I've been interested in health issues as long as I can remember. When I was a child, my whole family was chronically ill. My mother had an underactive thyroid, multiple sclerosis, gallstones and other health problems. Her sister had lupus. Their father (my grandfather) had insulin-dependent diabetes and its assorted complications including heart disease and, eventually, gangrene. My father's parents had breast cancer (Grandma) and heart disease (Grandpa).
I grew up thinking life was just one long series of pills and doctor appointments. I initially wanted to be a medical doctor, but I knew I didn't have the physical stamina to make it through the training so I went into scientific research as a more manageable option.
In 2005, I was sick and tired of being sick and tired. I had a very underactive thyroid and weighed more than 225 pounds (103 kg). I also had post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and was having trouble walking even short distances. I had to quit doing research for a PhD in neuroscience because I was too sick to continue. My doctor put me on thyroid medication, and I went home to wait for it to work.
I waited about 6 months, and still felt no better. I knew I had to do something drastic, or there was no point in going on. So, like any reasonable person, I booked a trip to South America, planning to drink ayahuasca in the Peruvian jungle for a week.
My first three ceremonies (in 2005) were so powerful that I felt like I'd had major surgery afterwards. It was almost a year before I was ready to do it again. I went back to Peru for 6 weeks in 2006, to the healer who is now my teacher, and again in 2007, for 6 months. That was when I dropped 70 pounds. (When I returned from that trip, my then-husband didn't recognize me right away!).
I went from about 225 lb (16 st/ 103 kg) at my biggest (around 2001) to something like 150 lb (10 st 10/ 68 kg) now, but that's not all down to the ayahuasca. It has inspired me to change my lifestyle quite radically, from that of a couch potato who used junk food as her drug of choice into an active human being who eats good, healthy food (avoiding flour, dairy, sugar, fat, and processed stuff) only when hungry. I've got energy and stamina for the first time in my life. I no longer need to down a handful of prescription medication every morning with breakfast, and I'm no longer allergic to anything in my immediate environment. I used to have a really weak immune system, catching every bug that came along – I'd often get bronchitis twice a year. Now I only slow down a bit, and a day or two of rest is all I need to bounce back. It's amazing!
Sounds like an exaggeration, doesn't it? That's why I've added the pictures:
For more details, check out the video below.
I was so impressed that I wanted to learn how to do this kind of healing work. I started studying with my teacher in 2007. Since then, I've spent anywhere from 6 weeks to 5 months a year in Peru with my teacher, learning more all the time. It's a continuous process – I could spend the rest of my life there and not know everything – but I've reached the point where I do healings on my own.
I've had clients with problems ranging from autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis to more emotional/spiritual issues such as traumatic stress and addictions.
You tell me what you want to work on, I do an energy scan of your body to interpret information carried in your energy field, and then call the spirits via sacred songs to do your healing. There are often plant remedies and/or spiritual practices recommended to support your progress.
I offer individual sessions in my Santa Cruz mountain location; see my schedule and pricing to make an appointment. I also work remotely; please contact me to inquire about arranging a session.
While Malabar can refer to many things, to me it's short for Malabar Jones: an anagram of my first and last names, (and possibly Indiana Jones's distant relation).
I've documented my first 14 ceremonies in Iquitos, Peru. Subsequent ceremonies with my teacher in the Amazon and items of related interest can be found in my blog.
Healing Without the Hot Air
When it comes to Wellness, being involved in complementary therapies can be tricky. I want to help people but I encourage them to get appropriate medical treatment when needed, since I'm not a medical doctor and the healing I offer cannot and should not substitute for treatment by qualified medical professionals (see disclaimer). I feel Wellness conveys the concern but avoids stepping on medical toes.
As a former neuroscientist, I have little patience for nonsense. If something works, I use it; if not, I throw it in the bin. The point of healing should be to equip us better for life. It's good to have an open mind, but not an empty head.
If I'm unsure either way, I keep it in a "maybe" file, to be accepted or discarded when I get new data. That makes me extremely practical. I need to get on with the ordinary business of living, like 99.99% of everyone else.
Malabar Wellness welcomes everyone and is LGBT-friendly. Nobody who's looking for healing should have to worry about being hassled or made uncomfortable on grounds of race, religion, disability, or sexual orientation. If you feel any of these things in a session with me, please let me know straight away so I can do something about it. Currently the healing space is at street level and is wheelchair-accessible (though a bit rugged!). Please contact me if accessibility is an issue or you have other special concerns.

Ashton Kutcher Talks Social Media
Ashton Kutcher, star of television and Twitter, ended the Mixx conference by talking about his social-media venture Katalyst.
He showed two of Katalyst's recent projects: a user-contributed video for Kellogg that focuses on the cereal company's philanthropic work (directed by his wife, Demi Moore) and an episode of KatalystHQ, an in-house series advertising Nestle's Hot Pockets.
Mr. Kutcher said he got interested in production work while he was on "That '70s Show." "I wanted to get the job of the guy who was paying my check," he said.
Katalyst had greater opportunities, however, working in social media, though he shied away from calling it a marketing company. "We're really a studio," he said. "I think we're additive. I don't think that we're replacing ad agencies."
"Punk'd," the MTV series Mr. Kutcher started several years ago, naturally led to working on the Web, which he said shares the show's short attention span and improvised approach. And he said that the public life of a celebrity is increasingly one that others live too.
"The consumers are living in public. People are at home with the camera on," he said. "Brands have to do the same thing…you don't wear makeup on the Web."
Mr. Kutcher's interviewer, IAB CEO Randall Rothenberg, asked him what he says when people ask him what the next Twitter will be. "They can hire Katalyst, and I'll let you know," Mr. Kutcher said.

SACRAMENTO -- For seven straight years since turning 40, Amy Colton religiously scheduled a mammogram. Every year, the test showed nothing.
Two years ago, however, the registered nurse was shocked to discover she was in the latter stages of breast cancer. Then she learned that her radiologist and primary-care physician knew she had a condition that blocks the detection of cancer cells in mammograms -- but they never told her.
Now she's even more shocked that California's powerful medical lobby is trying to block legislation that would require physicians to tell women if they have the condition, known as "extremely dense breast tissue."
"I'm the patient; it's my body. But I was never informed," said Colton, who lives in Soquel. "It just took my breath away."
Colton took her complaint to Sen. Joe Simitian, D-Palo Alto, who introduced SB 173, which would require doctors to tell women if they have the condition.
But the legislation has generated debate over whether too much medical information can cause unnecessary panic and force high costs on women, many of whom can't afford it.
The bill was held up last month in the Assembly Appropriations Committee and is on life support as legislators scramble to wrap up their final week of this year's legislative session by Friday.
Colton, 50, says the mammogram results that she received in the mail all those years didn't set off any alarms. Because dense tissue shows up light on the X-ray image in a mammogram, it washes over any tumors, which are also light on the screen.
If Simitian's bill passes, California would become the third state, after Connecticut and Texas, to require doctors to notify patients if they have the condition. But medical groups, led by the powerful California Medical Association, have successfully lobbied to keep the bill, already approved by the Senate, from making it to the floor of the Assembly. Simitian is trying to revive the legislation before the session runs out.
"To tell a patient she has no right to know information already held by the radiologist and physician is indefensible," Simitian said. "These are two sentences that can save thousands of lives. ... I don't think patients are well-served by keeping this information a mystery."
Doctors say they aren't averse to providing such information to women. They say they just want to limit it to women who are at high risk, such as those with a family history of breast cancer, or with a personal history of a prior precancerous change in a breast.
Most women in their 40s have dense breast tissue, but aren't necessarily at risk, said Dr. Ruth Haskins, chairwoman of the Council on Legislation for the California Medical Association.
Extreme breast density, however, is considered one of the strongest risk factors for cancer, according to the National Institutes of Health. A 2007 Canadian study by cancer centers in Toronto and Vancouver published in the New England Journal of Medicine, showed that women with such breast tissue were five times more likely to have breast cancer than women with low-density fatty tissues.
Haskins acknowledged that dense breast tissue is an independent risk factor for developing cancer, but said it must be considered in conjunction with other risk factors such as family history.
The immediate result of the bill would be that "doctors are all going to be overwhelmed by calls and many of them are not going to be necessary because of their low risk," Haskins said. "Any woman who's been told that cancer could have been missed by their mammogram because they have such dense breasts, they're going to want further testing."
That's where costs come into the debate. Ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging provide much clearer views of cancer cells in breast examinations, experts say. But they are more expensive. Ultrasounds cost $300 per screening; MRIs cost $1,700 per screening.
Every woman with dense breast tissue will want the most sophisticated screening available, but the difficulty in obtaining required "prior authorizations" from insurance companies to get that kind of screening may frustrate both patients and doctors, Haskins said.
Women without private insurance would face even higher hurdles, given the reluctance of physicians who will accept low Medi-Cal reimbursement rates to provide the expensive procedure, Haskins said.
"It'll be my job to say, 'I agree, you merit this test, but your insurance won't cover it,' or, 'I agree, but you've got Medi-Cal and I can't find a provider who'll do it for you,' " Haskins said. "Or I'll have to say, 'I just don't see any high-risk factors and you don't really need this follow up study.'
"The problem with this bill is that it gives a boatload of power to a lot of women who then become powerless to use that information."
Colton, two years into her recovery after receiving successful treatment for her breast cancer, says she feels "great." But, she said, she's heartsick that physicians continue to oppose the legislation.
Added Colton: "I feel sorry it has come to this -- that we have to even have legislation to get doctors to talk to their patients."

The Nokia press event is moments away. The company got stuck with a relatively small room, Ballroom A in the Venetian here in Las Vegas, but the line snaked through the hallways and the room is packed.
We've got some mellow Bjork playing to set the mood.
Earlier today, Nokia CEO Stephen Elop confirmed that AT&T will be offering Nokia's first 4G (LTE) Windows phone.
We'll see what they have to add this afternoon. I spotted a Microsoft spokesman out front, so we might get some additional color on the strategic alliance.
Elop takes the stage.
"The first part of our strategy was to grow efforts around the affordable mobile phone segment."
"To support this, we've been increasing R&D investments and now bringing new products and innovations to the market."
Second pillar was focused on smart phones. It's now a battle of ecosystems.
We decided to adopt the Windows platform. In October, we introduced the first real Windows Phones: The Lumia 800 and 710.
All the information you're interested in about the people you care about is brought right to the surface.
This week, we're very pleased to announce sales of the Lumia 710 here with T-Mobile.
Lumia is aimed at the heart of our new strategy and need to engage in the war of ecosystems.
We're starting to establish a set of beachheads.
"Today, I'm very pleased to announce the third device in the portfolio: Nokia Lumia 900."
Sexy video of the phone now on display.
It runs on AT&T's LTE network. Primary camera includes Carl Zeiss optics. The device also includes an additional front facing camera with a wide angle lens.
"It's the first real Windows phone designed and built for the North American market."

"We didn't sign a contract to work together until less than a year ago, and to go from concept and discussion to a real engineering partnership, to delivery, to the first round of Lumia devices shipping in Europe, I think is fantastic."

Now into Q&A. Don't see an official press release on the Lumia 900 yet. Not announcing pricing or timing, other than "in the months ahead."
That seems to be the news. Calling it quits to get in some charging before queuing up for the Ballmer keynote at 6:30.

An interesting question kept popping up in the course of my recent (and continuing) Target: Tinos book tour. Twice I was asked at an event why it took me so long to "launch" my writing career, and the kind folks at my alma mater (Washington & Jefferson College), who have me considering the opportunity of teaching a course there, wondered why my college years focused on the sciences rather than English.
I had a very simple answer. It also had the convenience of being the truth wrapped in an interesting story with a moral. That's why I thought it might interest the readers of our PPP blog and decided to write about it this month. As I did, the keystrokes seemed all too familiar, which was when I realized I'd told the story before, two years ago to be precise on my Murder is Everywhere blog.
I thought to play with it stylistically but decided against it. Let's just say that the statute of limitations ran on the old one and leave it at that. 🙂 So here's why I didn't become a writer "back then."
Undiscouraged writers are all alike; but every writer was discouraged in his or her own way.
Apologies Leo, but you know that's true. Even you, the great Tolstoy admitted discouragement to your diary as you struggled through your first novel, Childhood: "Do I have talent, in comparison with the new Russian writers? Assuredly not."
I doubt there's a true writer out there who at some point early on didn't question his skills or wonder how she could contribute something that measured up to what's already out there, let alone offered more.
I'm not talking about the critical self-judgments writers impose upon their works in progress—that's a whole different subject. I'm talking experiences that flat out discourage you from thinking you're qualified to take pen to paper or put fingers to keyboard.
My initial discouragement—one of several to follow—occurred in my hometown of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. But that's also where many years later serendipitous encouragement brought me to my senses and led me to abandon my well paying career as a New York City lawyer for the vagaries of the writing life. Thank you, Pittsburgh.
A lot of fond memories in da 'burgh, but the discouraging one that has me smiling now occurred when I was a freshman in high school. Peabody High School was distinguished then as a school that gave opportunities to mill town children willing to learn, regardless of their circumstances or origins. This year it will close forever. Perhaps that's another reason I'm remembering the story.
My freshman English teacher, Mrs. Morrison, was a legendary disciplinarian who thrived on language as the source of all things. I was a kid from a neighborhood where all things revolved around sports, so what mattered most to me was playing high school football. Besides, "who needed English," only sissies read. But Mrs. Morrison knew that. She'd been teaching in this inner city school for years. She had a way of getting you to think you might actually be able to write something if you put your mind to it. She had me secretly believing I might be a writer. Then came that fateful day.
She told the class she wanted us to hear what someone who applied himself to writing could do. She introduced a senior to read his composition. I knew him; he came from an even worse neighborhood than mine. We'd been on the football team together and though he was a star he hadn't finished the season. We had a genuinely terrible team that year, and one afternoon after a particularly ignominious loss in which he'd taken quite a pounding, his mother stormed into the locker room and dragged him out of there in his football pants, t-shirt and cleats. She was screaming something along the lines of, "You've got a full college scholarship for basketball and I'm not going to have you ruin your future by getting hurt playing for this lousy team."
As I sat in that English class listening to someone only three years older than I read his work I thought, "Man, I could never write like that, and if a jock from that neighborhood can do that, just think how many others out there must be able to do better. I'll never make it as a writer."
Years later I realized his mother was right about his future and I was wrong to be discouraged. Today, my teammate counts among his honors, a Rhodes scholarship, the American Book Award for Fiction, a MacArthur Fellowship, and the Pen/Faulkner Award for Fiction (twice). He is one of America's greatest living writers, John Edgar Wideman. That's him in the photo at the top of this piece.
And then there's that kid who lived up behind my aunt's grocery store in Pittsburgh's Hill District. Not only was he younger than I, he never finished high school. Thankfully, I had no idea back then of the extraordinary writing talent that would later win him, Tony award winning playwright August Wilson, two Pulitzer Prizes. Otherwise, I might have thought writing genius was everywhere and been discouraged beyond hope. 🙂
Bottom line. Don't let discouragement get to you, especially if you're from Pittsburgh.

Athens, GA (AP) - Aaron Murray is determined to learn from his
four turnovers in Georgia's 34-31 overtime loss to Florida last
In the process, Georgia coaches are learning a little more about
the freshman quarterback. Coach Mark Richt and offensive
coordinator Mike Bobo say Murray is responding to the loss like a
Before last week, Murray had been the most consistent player on
Georgia's offense. He threw 12 touchdown passes with only three
interceptions in the Bulldogs' first eight games and was the bright
spot in a disappointing season.
Before switching his attention to Saturday's home game against
Idaho State, Murray studied film of the Florida game over and over.
He says he had to learn from his mistakes.

by Langston Hughes
Analysis: Calling Card
An Everyman's Poet
Langston Hughes didn't have it too easy in his day. Black intellectuals of his time often criticized our man for portraying black life in a less-than-flattering way, during a time when these same folks were looking to make their way in an already volatile American culture. So Hughes took a lot of heat from both the black community—which didn't feel well-served—and the white community—which was already skeptical to begin with.
But the fact remains that the everyday folks of his day, both black and white, praised Hughes for his way of capturing the frustrations and passions of black life in its stark reality. He wasn't interested in wearing rose-colored glasses in his writing. He told it like it was and wrote the world how he saw it as a person, not just as a "black person." Hughes often wrote about everyday people in big cities struggling with the same sort of up and down cycles of life that folks continue to experience today.
What's that? You demand other examples of Hughes's work? Well click no further than here and here.

Post subject: Getting off the breast
I have been breastfeeding my little one and now that he as turned 1 would really like to give up. I have tried giving him both formula and cows milk out of various bottles, beakers and cups but point blank refuses. It gets to the point where he's in such a state that i end up giving him. As anyone got some sound advice as would really like my body back

Post subject: Getting off the breast
Hi Claire, I have mixed fed my daughter since she was born so have had no problems with either but I do know people who have had a similar problems.
My advice is to
1) Go out and buy or borrow 1 of every kind of bottle there is (particularly NUK bottles and MAM bottles) and try your little one with each one, and
2) get in touch with your local breastfeeding counsellor and ask her to visit you.
Not sure if you have this in your area but I have access to a group of breastfeeding nurses who will visit you on request to help with breastfeeding problems. Try your local clinic if you are unsure or call the laleche league (details on www.laleche.org.uk) or try www.breastfeedingnetwork.org.uk which has loads of information that could be useful.
I hope you get it sorted, what you need to remember is that babies are very clever little souls and at the moment yours is getting his own way at the moment, you need to assert yourself to get your own way. There is a solution somewhere for you I'm sure!
Best wishes x

Caron Says Sorry For Bond Call … Again
Morgan Stanley's Jim Caron just can't get out from under it.
The head of global interest rate strategy at the venerable Wall Street firm has issued yet another apology for his errant call on the U.S. Treasurys market.
"We got our rates call wrong and missed a great opportunity to be long bonds this year," he writes Thursday.
Many of Wall Street's smartest market wizards have been hoodwinked by the rally in U.S. Treasury securities this year, but perhaps none more than Caron, the analyst who back in April thought Treasury prices would plummet, sending the yield on the government's 10-year note to 5.5%. (Yields move inversely to prices.)
Um, it's now 2.614%. The yield on the two-year Treasury note, meanwhile, stands at 0.496%, having hit a fresh all-time low of 0.475% during Friday's session.
In the spring, Morgan Stanley was the most adamant of U.S. Treasury dealers that Treasurys would tank this year. Their reason: The U.S. government was going to sell trillions of dollars in fresh debt to fund itself, and this explosion of supply had to make government securities less valuable. Morgan Stanley figured we'd see the highest 10-year yield since May 2001. Goldman Sachs, by contrast, saw the 10-year yield hitting 3.25%.
Coming into this year, many analysts also thought the U.S. economy's recovery would mean that the Fed would be raising interest rates pretty soon, a negative for bonds. Bonds would be out of fashion, and stocks, in.
Instead, doubts about the recovery have deepened and investors haven't really worried about heavy government borrowing in the U.S. They're giving Uncle Sam a pass for now. And so we have folks like Caron back-pedaling on their earlier forecasts.
"I never really thought about [our forecast] as being the outlier," Mr. Caron said back in April. "In our view, the consensus is wrong."
Fast forward to Thursday, when Mr. Caron felt the need to confess again: "The market is currently rife with tactical relative value opportunities and that's what we will focus on going forward. We're shifting gears and will become more tactical, playing for rate moves in either direction in shorter timeframes."
At least the man can admit when he's been wrong. That's not always the case on Wall Street.

People come up with all kinds of excuses to avoid getting the flu vaccine.
"I've had the flu and it's no big deal."
"The vaccine will give me the flu."
"There are toxic levels of mercury in the vaccine."
If you listen to these misconceptions and don't get your flu vaccine, you could catch the latest circulating influenza strain and spend a week or more sidelined from work and feeling miserable. Even worse, you could get really sick and wind up in the hospital.
Here are a few reasons why you absolutely need toget a flu vaccine this year:
- Influenza (the flu) circulates all over the world, and it can affect anyone, regardless of their age or health.
- The flu can lead to complications like pneumonia, ear infections, and sinus infections. It can also worsen existing conditions, like asthma or diabetes.
- Each year, thousands of people in the U.S. die from the flu and its complications.
Want to know the truth about the flu vaccine? Read through these common questions and answers to learn how it works, whether it's risky, and why you definitely need to get it.
Do I Really Need a Flu Vaccine?
If you're over 6 months old, the CDC says yes, you need to get a flu vaccination at the start of every flu season. Despite the fact that we tend to label any illness that makes us sneeze, shiver, or vomit as "the flu," true influenza isn't a trivial illness. It can do far worse than just keep you home from work or school for a few days.
"Hundreds of thousands of people each year are hospitalized with influenza. Between 3,000 and 40,000 people die during any influenza season, depending on the strain that's circulating," says Jeffrey Duchin, MD. He's chief of the Communicable Disease Epidemiology & Immunization Section at Seattle & King County Public Health, and an associate professor in medicine in the University of Washington Division of Infectious Diseases.
Although young infants, the elderly, pregnant women, and people with chronic conditions like asthma or heart disease are most susceptible to flu complications (including pneumonia), people of all ages die from the disease each year.
"It's a serious health problem for adults and children. And it's preventable," says Duchin, who is also a member of the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). "We have a way for people to avoid unnecessary doctor's visits, to avoid unnecessary antibiotics, and to avoid hospitalization."
