Wenceslas Square Sausage Stands
Following in the footsteps of the klobása king, Brewsta casts a critical eye over Václavské náměstí's altars of indigestion
It's rarely mentioned in any books, but St. Wenceslas is also known as the Sausage King. He is the patron saint of the klobása.
In his honor, every day and night, there is a sausage fest on Wenceslas Square. Top to bottom, on every corner, you will find crowds of people gathering around sausage stands and paying homage at these altars of indigestion.
I, myself, have made the pilgrimage many times. And I'd say some of the sausages are pretty good. That's not to say they are good for you. But, given the right circumstances, the right amount of hunger, and perhaps a little impaired judgment, they are a great, quick bite.
I much prefer the two stands at the very bottom of the square, the one on the corner Vodičkova or the one on the corner of Štěpánská. This is mainly because they are a relatively new design, with stainless steel exteriors, the larges variety of sausages, and easily viewable work and grilling areas.
One stand has a sign on it that says "Euro Food," but other than that, they don't really have names or identifying signs. They are apparently all run by a company called DMJ. It has a small website with a limited look at the menus and some pictures of the stands.
There's just one small table nearby, where you can stand while you eat, if you don't want to take it on the run. You'll probably have to share it with a horde of hungry tourists during the day.
For a long time, I favored the German sausages in a bun (Německé klobásky v housce) for 40 CZK. They put five of these little links in the bread. I get it with mustard (hořčice) and fried onion (cibule).
Not long ago, this item cost 30 CZK. Talk about inflation.
I was pretty disappointed with these sausages after a recent visit. They had been sitting on the grill for far too long, and a lot of the fat in them had been cooked off. They were dried out and almost hard.
This is the one of the problems with these places. They don't pay much attention to the cooking. The sausages might be overcooked. Or they might be undercooked. It partly depends on the ebb and flow of customers. The people who cook and serve the stuff don't seem to watch the grill too carefully. So, on another visit, I decided to be different and get the Prague sausage (Pražská klobása). This special one is a little pricer than the rest and goes for 50 CZK.
It is redder in color than any of the others and has a bit of a spicy kick.
It has a thick casing and a nice snap when you bite it.
After I took my first bite, I thought I saw big chunks of fat. But when I looked more carefully, I saw what appeared to be pieces of garlic in it. I didn't really get much garlic flavor from them, but I was happy it wasn't fat.
I'd say this was my favorite sausage of all, and I'll probably get it again.
I also liked the Bavarian sausage on a roll (Bavorská klobása v rohlíku) for 40 CZK. I got it with mustard and asked for sauerkraut. There is a jar of cold kraut next to where you order. The first time I asked for it, the lady put it on for me. The second time, a different lady just handed me some tongs.
It was well cooked, not too fatty, and had a nice pork flavor.
One problem with all these sausages is the bread. First of all, they are not of great quality to begin with. But the main problem is that they keep them all in a warming tray, I suppose, to keep them from going stale. However, they end up turning into rubbery, chewy things instead.
For the final experiment upon my stomach, I tried Wenceslas' sausage on a roll (Václavská klobása v rohlíku) for 40 CZK. This was my least favorite, mainly because it was the most greasy and fatty. It was big, but tasted more like a hot dog than a sausage.
I did not get a chance to eat the Moravian sausage. And I must confess I have not tried any of their other offerings, such as the fried chicken cutlet (smažený kuřecí řízek) or the fried cheese (smažený sýr).
I know people who swear by the fried cheese as the perfect stomach-lining snack when you are on a bender. That may be. It's just not my thing.
One more thing -- a couple of people on Prague discussion boards complained about being short-changed. It's never happened to me at one of these places, but it does seem there has been something of a short-change epidemic in the country. It's happened to me three times this year at places like gas stations and Christmas markets. Always count your change.
I leave you with the words of Good King Wenceslas -- who, unlike me, really loved all sausages equally and enjoyed nothing more than sharing a big spicy one with his queen:
Bring me flesh, and bring me wine, bring me pine logs hither
Thou and I will see him dine, when we bear them thither

WILLIE WEAVER,PLAINTIFF,v. DEUEL VOCATIONAL INSTITUTION, DEFENDANT.
Plaintiff, a prisoner proceeding pro se, brings this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
The PLRA's "three strikes" provision, found at 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g), provides as follows:
In no event shall a prisoner bring a civil action . . . under this section if the prisoner has, on three or more prior occasions, while incarcerated or detained . . ., brought an action . . . in a court of the United States that was dismissed on the ground that it is frivolous, malicious, or fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, unless the prisoner is under imminent danger of serious physical injury. Id.
Thus, when a prisoner plaintiff has had three or more prior actions dismissed for one of the reasons set forth in the statute, such "strikes" preclude the prisoner from proceeding in forma pauperis unless the imminent danger exception applies. Dismissed habeas petitions do not count as "strikes" under § 1915(g). See Andrews v. King, 398 F.3d 1113, 1122 (9th Cir. 2005). Where, however, a dismissed habeas action was merely a disguised civil rights action, the district court may conclude that it counts as a "strike." See id. at n.12.
A review of the court's records reflects that plaintiff has had three
or more cases dismissed as "strikes" under § 1915(g).*fn1
Three such cases are: Weaver v. Tehachapi Confinement SHU,
1:06-CV-0341-AWI-LJO-P; Weaver v. California Correctional Institution,
1:06-CV-0863-OWW-SMS-P; and Weaver v. California Correctional
Institution, 1:06-CV-1205-AWI-SMS-P. Because plaintiff has had three
or more cases dismissed as "strikes," and because a review of the
complaint does not suggest the applicability of an exception, he
cannot proceed without pre-payment of the statutory filing fees.
When in forma pauperis status is denied, revoked, or otherwise unavailable under § 1915(g), the proper course of action is to dismiss the action without prejudice to re-filing the action upon pre-payment of fees at the time the action is re-filed. In Tierney v. Kupers, the Ninth Circuit reviewed a district court's screening stage dismissal of a prisoner civil rights action after finding under § 1915(g) that the plaintiff was not entitled to proceed in forma pauperis. See 128 F.3d 1310 (9th Cir. 1998). Notably, the district court dismissed the entire action rather than simply providing the plaintiff an opportunity to pay the filing fee. The Ninth Circuit held that the plaintiff's case was "properly dismissed." Id. at 1311. Similarly, in Rodriguez v. Cook, the Ninth Circuit dismissed an inmate's appeal in a prisoner civil rights action because it concluded that he was not entitled to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal pursuant to the "three strikes" provision. See 169 F.3d 1176 (9th Cir. 1999). Again, rather than providing the inmate appellant an opportunity to pay the filing fee, the court dismissed the appeal without prejudice and stated that the appellant "may resume this appeal upon prepaying the filing fee."
This conclusion is consistent with the conclusions reached in at least three other circuits. In Dupree v. Palmer, the Eleventh Circuit held that denial of in forma pauperis status under § 1915(g) mandated dismissal. See 284 F.3d 1234 (11th Cir. 2002). The court specifically held that "the prisoner cannot simply pay the filing fee after being denied IFP status" because "[h]e must pay the filing fee at the time he initiates the suit." Id. at 1236 (emphasis in original). The Fifth and Sixth Circuits follow the same rule. See Adepegba v. Hammons, 103 F.3d 383 (5th Cir. 1996); In re Alea, 86 F.3d 378 (6th Cir. 2002).
Based on the foregoing, the undersigned recommends that this action be dismissed without prejudice to re-filing upon pre-payment of the filing fees.
These findings and recommendations are submitted to the United States District Judge assigned to the case, pursuant to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l). Within 14 days after being served with these findings and recommendations, any party may file written objections with the court. Responses to objections shall be filed within 14 days after service of objections. Failure to file objections within the specified time may waive the right to appeal. See Martinez v. Ylst, 951 F.2d 1153 (9th Cir. 1991).

They notice the details of children's activities to learn more about what might be on children's minds. Reflective teachers see themselves as researchers of the teaching and learning process. They work side by side with children in deepening understandings. Reflective Teachers Are Eager to Gain More Perspectives Reflective teachers also seek out many perspectives to enhance their under- standings of their work. They are eager to interact and share stories of children with coworkers and the children's families. They spend time studying theories about children and child development to consider how theory connects to their daily practices with children. Reflective Teachers Look for Details Observing children closely and noticing the details of how they engage with materials and each other are critical practices for reflective teaching. The details of what is unfolding with children become the data that reflective teachers use to study the teaching and learning process. Reflective Teachers Examine the Environment Reflective teachers understand that the environment and materials play a power- ful role in enhancing the teaching and learning process, so they continually assess and consider the impact of the environment and adapt and change it to enhance children's experiences. Reflective Teachers Are Fully Engaged in Their Work For reflective teachers, working with children is a journey filled with joys and struggles that lead to an engaged and nourishing professional life. Most of all, reflective teachers delight in children and the amazing learning and develop- ment unfolding around all of them, both teachers and children. COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL

I am a professional photographer and use the Nikon D90 and the Canon EOS system for my shoots. Frankly, the point and shoot cameras never interested me much due to their small sensor ( 1/2.3 inches) since resolution and detail is missing for my work.
However, its difficult to carry a DSLR with different lenses around all the time and one needs a small pocketable camera which can fit in and take casual shots when required.
Checked offerings from Canon, Nikon and Sony. Not Fuji or Pana, with my priorities - Pocket able, sharp focus, less shutter lag, sharp images, even in low light and good video
Canon - problem,since auto focus is slow in almost all their models in their lower range. Fast, snappy shooting is not possible. By the time you compose and lock focus the subject has moved. Not acceptable.
Nikon - Major quirks in the point and shoot. Not really happy with the cameras I have seen.
Sony - Introduced three cameras - the DSC w90, DSC wx50 and DSC WX 150 together.
DSC W90 - Not happy with the image quality. Focus issues, so ruled out.
DSC wx 150 and 50 - Checked both, settled for the wx50 basis the following
Sony G lens vs Carl Zeiss Vario Tessar Lens in the WX50 -
Although the Sony Gold series Lens are really good, Carl Zeiss is used on all their premium selected cameras. Check out the lenses on Sony DSC HX100v or the Sony DSC HX200V their high end bridge cameras which use Carl Zeiss Vario Sonnar Lenses or their latest Sony RX100, one of their premium offerings again with a Carl Zeiss Lens.
The Sony G series (gold series) although amongst the best in the industry also has some plastic elements in the construction in some assemblies. Not for me. I want glass in the various lens elements, all the way.
18.2 Megapixels vs 16.2 Megapixels in DSC wx50 - Sony had to ramp up the MP count to ensure a higher pixel density to compensate for longer zoom and lower aperture, but that came with more noise, both Luma and Chroma, so they used an extremely strong noise reduction algorithm to suppress noise! Found the pictures flat, more painting like.
Cramming so much MP into a small sensor is not a good idea. Amused to see reviews talking about high MP.
f3.3 vs f2.6 in DSC WX 50 -
The DSC WX is brighter at wide angle. More light, lower ISO, better low light, low noise, sharper images. Much better. Period.
10x zoom vs 5x zoom in the WX50 - Frankly speaking, 5x optical zoom with 10x interpolated zoom is more than enough.
10x optical zoom - a little bit of shake and blurry images at extreme telephoto. Forget 20x interpolated digital zoom.
And 10x is neither here, nor there. You want a decent zoom? Buy a bridge camera with 35x plus optical zoom and 70x plus digital zoom, not on this small camera.
Sony had to use a G series lens here because a Zeiss lens would have to be a Vario Sonnar,used for longer zoom (30x plus) not Tessar lens,(used for maller zoom) thus jacking up the price. To compensate - Higher MP crammed into a small sensor, higher noise suppression. The compromise? Image quality. Not acceptable.
Autofocus - No complaints!!
Burst shooting - 10fps on both - excellent, although I would suggest using a class 10 UHS card since the buffer gets filled very quickly.
Video - Full HD at 1080i on both - Sony should have included 1080p instead of 1080i (progressive instead of interlaced since interlaced is jerky in comparison) but I guess the price would have gone up again. As it is very good video quality on both and perfectly acceptable.
Sony claims faster autofocus on the wx150 and no shutter lag, compared to wx50, but I found wx 50 perfectly acceptable.
Final verdict? All other things being equal, the WX 50 has 5x less optical zoom and a different level of autofocus and shutter lag than the WX150.
Advantages? Higher image quality, thanks to Carl Zeiss lens, brighter aperture, lesser optical zoom, and lesser megapixels!(yup!)
For me, choosing the WX50 between the two was a no brainer. Thanks for reading this, hope you got some useful data to choose a camera.
Its really awesome and fully packed with features, full on direct editing on the camera and and latest, liked the 3D stills and 3D panorama and sweep panorama feature, The best feature is drop protection which protects the lens i.e. it automatically senses the drop and closes the lenses if the setting of drop protection is ok.
It also features blur background feature like the DSLRs.
Overall is worth and highly recommended.
this camera is a gem when compared to other cameras in the same price segment. the CMOS sensor detects color when the naked eyes can not even detect anything in the dark condition. the picture quality along with the DSLR like functions are absolutely professional like at this price point which keeps this camera ahead of anything available in the market to capture images. the carl ziess lens does its job very well and is better than the normal Sony lenses available in the market. the camera records blu ray quality video in AVCHD format with stereo depth sound powered by DOBLBY DIGITAL SOUND SORROUND. features like pop color, background defocus, optical image stabilization, etc add to the value of this camera. also the size of the camera is very small unlike it seems to be in the picture which makes it handy and very useful while travelling and taking instant snaps. the camera takes around 2 seconds to start so that you don't miss any instantaneous moment. you also get a 4 gb free memory card with 16 mbps fast speed for HD recording, a battery, charger, a usb cable, a HDMI cable, a strap and a cover. this camera covers 3 year official Sony warranty so no worry after you buy this camera; any problem, sony will handle it. flipkart is selling it at the cheapest price than any online store. it just needs to improve its delivery time, as it took more than a week to deliver this product in the NCR. i am pretty much satisfied with my sony dsc wx50 and i will certainly recommend this to anyone seeking a powerful camera in a small size.
Frankly, in this price range you can't get anything better than this (as of this writing anyway!)
Excellent images
Exceptional low light performance (this is simply jaw dropping! Even in very very dark settings, the camera manages to make the most out of the available light, when you plan to use the flash, that too is excellent.. )
Very compact size (some people like the small size, some don't. I personally take it out on family trips and treks, for this alone, it is perfect!)
Wide array of features like background defocus (which give you that nice blurry background, SLR style!)
Superb videos in HD, perfect for youtube, facebook and the likes.. it also shoots in AVCHD and has a mini HDMI out for all your HD needs)
Battery life ain't the best.. about 200 shots in one charge, then again.. the full charge only takes about 1.5 hours..
When I bought this camera I had in front of me Canon powershot series A3300 IS and few other power/cybershot models. At more than 10X zoom the sharpness of DSC-WX50 was clearly better than thee rest(16 MP all).Image stabilization is good and pictures are noise free even in low light..
*Good flash.Decent illumination till 10 m
*comparitively less noise in low light (as against powershot model)
*Wide angle shots
*background brurr and 3d panorama
*full HD videos
*no motion blurr due to shaky hands
*clear shots in macro mode
*heat sensor automatically shuts down the camera under extreme temperature conditions.
*battery backup not up to the mark(200 pics is not above avg.)
*not very handy due to small size
*to select the modes you need to browse through menu
*small aperture ..(but this doesn't come as a surprise for this range)
Pros :
- lightweight, compact
- HDR feature (called Painting effect in the UI) is useful for dramatic landscapes with clouds etc. eg. during monsoon
- low light images are brighter and more colourful than my previous camera (admittedly several years older)
- weird noise processing artifacts that look like "oil painting" like effects if you zoom in. Images tend to look good on the camera display, not so great when you get home and look at them on a computer screen.
- 720p HD video is 25fps because this is a PAL region only product (and there is no option to select 30fps). Killer, as my other videocams are 30fps, so cannot edit a mix of the two without artifacts. Dumb.
- poor battery life
- face recognition features don't work, may be not tuned for Indian faces :-) . Gimmicky, but still, why put it in if it doesn't work
I was a big fan of Sony products earlier, but this is the second Sony product I have purchased this year (other was a nettop PC, with poor quality display) that I wished I'd had the option to try before buying online.
This is the best camera, with price little bit high as compare to nikon s6300 as both have same future, though nikon s6300 has 10x optical zoom where sony cyber shot dsc wx50 ha 5x optical zoom.
But brand wise sony is winner. It has all advanced features like slr. picture quality is excellent. even in low light. dont wait just grab it...........
The camera purchased was delivered in good quality, it was well packed and delivered on time.
For light moment or day to day fun pfotography this camera is the perfect one to go for.
Sony as we know is well known for its good quality pictures, this camera lives up to its expectations. In fact its very good.
With only 3D extra which we might seldom use without a 3D TV, this doesn't look like a real upgrade over the previous model which is the WX7...WX7 is also a lot cheaper...
I think it is wise to wait for the WX150 which will be released in few days time...With 10x optical zoom in the same thin body of WX7/WX50, that might really be the one to look out for upgrade...Waiting for it anxiously...
I have compared this camera vs the sony wx150 and finally bought the WX150. The WX50 is quite small and you would think that's good, right ? May be not...I felt it was somewhat of a drawback since you might not find it snugly fitting in your hands while shooting. Also the WX150 has better optical zoom (10X) which is quite worth the money. Other than the size and zoom, I found both cameras have exactly same menu and button arrangements. Of course the lens types are different, but for a casual user who is just looking for simple point & shoot, you don't actually have to scratch your head choosing b/w the 2. I tried both cameras and found image quality to be more or less same and is top class..In terms of image size (MP) both have good enough 16 & 18 MP and works just fine. If you are willing to spend a couple of thousand, I would recommend WX150 over this WX50..for extra zoom and perfect size to fit into your pocket & palm !!

Native American's With Alcoholism And Diabetes
The health situation with regard to Native Americans is shown in numerous studies to be seriously below the standard and average of other groups in the country. This fact is underscored and emphasized in research studies such as Richardson's, The Need to Empower Indian Tribes, in which he states that,
As the nation reviews its health needs, it can look to American Indians as the ethnic group in the poorest health, with the highest rates of diabetes and tuberculosis. Recently, the Indian Health Service reported that tuberculosis rates among Native Americans exceeded all other ethnic classifications by 400%. Indians die younger than other groups, from a variety of illnesses. A 1992 report from the University of Minnesota noted that the suicide rate of Indian teens is four times greater than any other ethnic group. The accidental death rate of American Indians is 295% greater than that for the rest of the U.S. population.
(Richardson, 1994. p. 54)
The above quotation paints a general picture of the health and welfare situation of Native Americans, which is reiterated from differing perspectives in numerous other studies. One aspect that is clearly referred to in these studies is that the different health and welfare issues that affect native Americas are complex and related to other social, historical and political elements. These issues have a direct impact on the high rate of diabetes, alcohol abuse and alcoholism among Native Americans. In this regard many studies attest to the historical and cultural antecedents of these health problems.
Centuries ago, explorers introduced disease and ecological changes that took a heavy toll on the native population. Today even as tribal councils are gaining strength and taking over more government functions, poor nutrition, unsafe water supplies, inadequate waste disposal facilities, and the twin plagues of alcohol and drug addiction damage the health of many people of the Indian nations.
(Guiden & Johnson, 2000, p. 36)
Commentators and researcher point out that there is a strong correlation between health and disease issues among Native Americans and social aspects such as poverty and the access to health services. Another aspect that is mentioned is the ' cultural dislocation' of native Americans, as well as the fact that "High rates of unemployment, discrimination and cultural differences all contribute to unhealthy lifestyles and disparities in access to health care for many Indian people" (ELIMINATING HEALTH DISPARITIES IN THE AMERICAN INDIAN AND ALASKA NATIVE COMMUNITY. 2003)
These aspects are also borne out by current statistics. Among these figures are the following:
American Indians and Alaska Natives die at higher rates than other Americans from alcoholism (770%), tuberculosis (750%), diabetes (420%), accidents (280%), homicide (210%) and suicide (190%).
American Indians and Alaska Natives born today have a life expectancy that is almost 6 years less than the U.S. population (70.6 years to 76.5 years).
Infants in American Indian and Alaska Native communities die at a rate of 8 per every 1,000 live births, as compared to 7.2 per 1,000 for the U.S. population
Native American Indians also suffer from a poor health care in many communities. This is exacerbated by the fact that, while this group is most at risk for various diseases such as diabetes, they are also among the poorest in the country who cannot afford health insurance. Furthermore, they are often denied health care " ... simply because the appropriate medical services are out of geographic reach." (Rolo, 1999, p. 44)
This paper will attempt to provide an overview of the health situation with regard to diabetes and alcoholism and will also reflect on the concomitant and linked effects and problems associated with these central health issues. Remedies and proposed solutions to the problems that are encountered by Native Americans will also be explored.
2. Alcohol abuse
Statistics with regard to rates of alcoholism and alcohol related deaths are worryingly high for Native Americans. " ... age-adjusted alcoholism death rates for Indians are 440% higher than that for the general population."
Guiden & Johnson, 2000, p. 36) Another statistics is that "Rates of substance dependence and abuse among persons age 12 and older is highest among American Indians and Alaska Natives (14.1%). Rates of illicit drug use (10.1%), alcohol (44.7%) and binge alcohol use (27.9%) are among the highest in the nation. (ELIMINATING HEALTH DISPARITIES ... 2003)
This serious problem has it roots in social, historical and environmental factors. This aspect is borne out by the plethora of studies and research surveys on the subject. Data provided by the National Household Survey on Drug Abuse shows that while 50% of all adolescents in America have used alcohol, the comparable figures for Native American youths is approximately 80%. (Gale, Nancy. 1991)
This figure is also indicative of another alarming fact; namely the high incidence of alcohol abuse among younger people. This aspect is called a "tragedy" by many commentators. "The devastating effects of alcoholism have found their mark on Indian Country's youth as well. A Native teen's chance of dying from alcoholism is seventeen times higher than a teen from another race." (Rolo, 1999, p. 44)
As mentioned, the reason for this serious situation among Native Americans is partly due to historical causes. It is also related to issues of self-esteem and self -worth in the context of the larger society. Native American youths therefore face additional cultural and social pressure in addition to the normal pressures of adolescence -- which in turn often leads to the use of alcohol as a psychological 'crutch.'
The reason for alcohol abuse is deeply rooted in the psychological and social problems that are endemic to the Native American population - which also have its origins in historical circumstances.
Living up to worthy expectations can be difficult for anyone, especially in the contemporary world, where most youth are challenged to experiment with alcohol and drugs. Many Native youth, however, face additional hazards that increase their risk for alcohol and substance abuse, ... cultural conflict, post-traumatic stress, and low self-esteem.
(Gale, Nancy. 1991)
Adding to this problem is the 'cultural clash' between the norms and values of traditional cultures and the expectations and mores of modern cotemporary life. In this cultural clash native American youths are often" ... caught in a no-man's land of confusion and fuzzy self-image. Besides coping with the normal challenges of adolescence, Native youth must also deal with their identity as Indians. "(Gale, Nancy. 1991)
This aspect is also related to the history of Indian oppression and can add to feelings of inadequacy and frustration
Further research findings also shed more light on this subject. For example, it has been found that Alcoholism is multi-generational.; which means that it affects succeeding generations. Secondly it " ... often co-exists in Indian communities with certain specific other problems like depression, self-hate, cultural shame, and stress-related acting out." (Gale, Nancy. 1991) There is also evidence to suggest an important linkage between child abuse and displacement from family or home and alcohol abuse in later life. (Abused Native Americans Twice as Likely to Drink)
In summary alcohol abuse remains a very serious problem. Recent surveys of tribes in Wisconsin, Oklahoma, Oregon, Maine and Arizona reveal that "30% of the men and 18% of the women were diagnosed with some form of alcohol dependence. More than half said that they had at least one parent with alcohol problems." (Abused Native Americans Twice as Likely to Drink)
3. Diabetes and Native Americans
Diseases such as diabetes and particularly type 2 diabetes are also severe problems in Native American communities. An alarming fact is that American Indians and Alaska Natives have the highest prevalence of type 2 diabetes in the world. (ELIMINATING HEALTH DISPARITIES)
Further studies indicate that the prevalence of type 2 diabetes is rapidly increasing among American Indians and Alaska Native children and young adults when compared to other ethnic population; and is presently 2.6 times the national average. (ELIMINATING HEALTH DISPARITIES) Statistics also indicate that "... more than 107,000 Native Americans and Alaska Natives, or 14.5% of the population, receiving care from Indian Health Services (IHS) have diabetes. " (Diabetes Statistics for Native Americans)
Diabetes is the fifth deadliest disease in the Unite States with an annual cost to the country estimated to be $132 billion. (Diabetes Statistics for Native Americans) This disease can cause heart attacks and strokes as well as kidney complications and blindness. Native Americans more than any other groups are " ... 2.2 times more likely to have diagnosed diabetes as non-Hispanic whites of similar age." (Diabetes Statistics for Native Americans) This prevalence is underscored by the fact that a tribe of Native Americans situated in Arizona has the highest rate of diabetes in the world, with about 50% adults between the ages of 30 and 64 with diabetes. "Today, diabetes has reached epidemic proportions among Native Americans. Complications from diabetes are major causes of death and health problems in most Native American populations." (Diabetes Statistics for Native Americans)
There are numerous other statistics that add to…[continue]

As the text by Griner & Smith (2006) asserts, "There is a pressing need to enhance the availability and quality of mental health services provided to persons from historically disadvantaged racial and ethnic groups. Many previous authors have advocated that traditional mental health treatments be modified to better match clients' cultural contexts." (Griner & Smith, p. 531) Where Native Americans are concerned, this denotes the need for an outreach campaign
As to the availability of safe and clean water supplies, and safe waste disposal facilities, Native Peoples are again on the short end of the stick. About twelve percent of Native People do not have adequate supplies of fresh drinking water and dependable waste facilities while only one percent of the general American population do not have those needed facilities (Indian Health Services). The U.S. Commission on Civil rights reports that
Diabetes Among Middle Age Males: One of the major public health issues among middle age males is diabetes since they are twice as likely to suffer from the disease as compared to their female counterparts. Generally, the rate of diabetes has increased in the recent past to an extent that 8% of the American population have the disease, especially children and adults. The main reason for the increase of the rate
Reducing obesity is seen as the primary goal of these efforts, but part of combating obesity is engaging in more active lifestyles and thus the educational efforts Oklahoma is planning will address both identified risk factors for diabetes. Strategies outlined that will assist in achieving the objective of reduced obesity other than through an increase in the availability and effectiveness of education include working for better policy development and
exist between alcoholism as a learned behavior (rather than as a condition arising from any genetic predisposition) and self-esteem. This research is based upon the assumption that there is a direct connection between self-esteem and learned behaviors: While a person's self-esteem may of course be affected by inherited conditions (such as a birth defect) it is much more likely to be affected by conditions that the person believes that
On the other hand, many Alaskan natives have deep anger toward the whites. The civil rights leaders are attempting to improve the situation in Alaska, but it will take time. In 2001, three white teenagers driving around Anchorage shot frozen paintballs at Alaska Natives. The incident was another indication of racial intolerance toward Alaska's first people. Many Alaska Natives and other minorities feel that the subject of discrimination has

Then Home Again, Home Again…
We are back in Texas, having survived FreedomFest 2016 in Las Vegas. The overall experience was good and the best of it was wonderful. The best of the best was a speech by Andrew Napolitano. His presentation alone was worth the price of admission. Next best was a speech by Yaron Brook. No surprise there as we have heard Dr. Brook before and he is always right on.
Senator Rand Paul made a good speech of the sort that would have made his presidential candidacy much more viable than the teenage-like attempts at smart-mouth behavior he exhibited in the GOP debates. Ex Governors and Libertarian candidates Johnson and Weld made several appearances. While I support and will vote for Gov. Johnson, he comes off as way too laid back to attract the kind of attention needed to get his ball really rolling. And, were there ever a year and a circumstance for getting said ball rolling, this is the time and the situation.
As for Las Vegas itself, it is the most unnecessary creation of mankind that one could imagine. It is hotter than the gates of Hell, everything is grossly overpriced and the main attraction is the opportunity to give your hard earned money away playing "games" that are not even interesting. On the positive side, there is a lot of booby watching available (which I thoroughly enjoy despite being too old to remember why).

Critiquing Modern Feminism
I have frequently shared my favorable opinion of Camille Paglia, as my favorite feminist. I have just discovered a worthy competitor for that covetable title. She may not be quite as irreverently feisty; but Dr. Christina Hoff Sommers, is every bit as intelligent, outspoken, and critical of modern feminism and stultifying campus culture. She has the further advantages of being heterosexual and way easier on the eyes. 😉
If you appreciate strong intelligent women, take a break from politics and enjoy this conversation:
One need not agree with all they said, to enjoy the repartee; yet I am in substantial agreement with most of it. I was inspired to look Sommers up in the wiki. She has quite a CV. As an unapologetic male chauvinist, I can't help but find this sixty-five-year-old lady rather charming, and imagining what she must have looked like as a California girl / '60s flower child. 😉 ◄Dave►
Educated or Indoctrinated?
I am reading article after article making a fuss over the fact that Trump supporters tend to be 'less-educated,' and how 'college-educated' voters tend to support more moderate or progressive candidates. The tone of most of them clearly shows an elitist bias, against lesser unfortunates lacking a degree. Surely, had we gone to college, we wouldn't be so dumb as to support Trump.
To me, there is nothing remarkable at all about this statistic. Who do they think is doing the 'higher education?' Most college professors haven't a lick of common sense or real world experience, and are collectivist ideologues. What are the chances that very many of their graduates, manage to escape their corrosive environment as right thinking individualists?
I suspect that most of these articles are written by younger journalists, who haven't a clue that those of us who got our high school diplomas back in the '60s or earlier, acquired a far better education in 12 years, than now is achieved in 16. Then, we spent a lifetime learning even more, and accumulating wisdom. When reading such, the best way to contemplate their data, is to substitute the term 'indoctrinated' for every occurrence of the word 'educated.' 😉 ◄Dave►
Why Socioeconomic Systems Fail
Today, I venture to opine on a subject this has been over opined about by people far more qualified to offer opinions than yours truly.
Still, I will offer my own opinions with the hope that my use of simplification and common language might be more palatable than that typically used by the over educated.
In theory, a Free Market, operated in an environment of laissez-faire, is the best, most reliable and most equitable economic model available. So, how could such a system possibly fail? IMHO, partly due to its own accumulated success.
What could I possibly mean by such a silly statement? How can accumulated success lead to systematic failure? Simple, it does so when the economic model (the Free Market) attempts to operate in a vacuum. Said differently, when the economic model operates as if it alone is responsible for long term societal prosperity.
Secondly, this socioeconomic model fails when it is overburdened from without.
Thirdly, a state of "general prosperity" is anathema to those among us who, seemingly unable to control themselves, seek to control everyone else instead.
Still sounds a bit silly, does it not? Not to me.
In the case of the United States of America, a mostly free market economy (what I see as a "free enough" market economy) took a fledgling nation from a condition of national non-entity to super-power status so quickly that it gave us all a mild form of collective whiplash. It also gave us a level of general prosperity never before seen in the world and, by many, thought to be impossible to attain.
Then, almost suddenly, it all seems to be unraveling at the seams.
I have suggested 3 basic reasons for this:
→ Accumulated success
→ Overburdening from without
→ The desire to control acerbated by unbounded greed
Let us now discuss these individually, in simple terms and using common sense language:
Justice Judy
These college graduates walk among us…
A report that claims that there is a crisis in civic education in the United States says that nearly 10% of all college graduates think that TV's 'Judge Judy' is on the Supreme Court.
It was one of several alarming statistics from the report by the American Council of Trustees and Alumni.
It commissioned a survey this past summer of recent college graduates. High school civics curricula was used to form the questions.
Among the findings:
• Only 28% of college graduates could identify James Madison as the Father of the Constitution.
• More than half of college graduates didn't know how the Constitution is amended.
• Almost 40% of college graduates didn't know that Congress has the power to declare war.
• Almost half could not recognize that senators are elected to six year terms and representatives are elected to two-year terms.
• Less than half of college graduates knew that presidential impeachments are tried before the U.S. Senate.
The group says it found that less than 20% of liberal arts colleges and universities require students to take an American history or government course to graduate.
This isn't the first time the group has conducted a survey that shows a lack of knowledge of American history. A 2014 survey found that one-third of college graduates were unaware that FDR spearheaded the New Deal, and nearly half did not know that Teddy Roosevelt played a major role in constructing the Panama Canal.
The non-profit group is advocating required civics classes at U.S. colleges.

The People's Pottage
In the comment section of Robert Ringer's Post on Trump a couple days ago, one Charles Garret remarked:
You are right. This is going to be a wipe out with Trump. I am 85 and we understand Trump. We are fed up with what's been going on in our government for the last 50 to 60 years.
This elicited a curious reply from an anonymous 'Guest':
Based on your name and age I think you will enjoy (or know) Garet Garrett, The People's Pottage, available online to read for free.
Mildly intrigued, I did a search and found the book available as a free PDF download from one of my favorite sites, the Mises Institute. It was originally published back in 1953, and their blurb stated:
A time came when the only people who had ever been free began to ask: "What is freedom?"
Who wrote its articles — the strong or the weak? Was it an absolute good? Could there be such a thing as unconditional freedom, short of anarchy?
Given the answer to be "no," then was freedom an eternal truth or a political formula?
The three essays brought together in this book, entitled respectively, The Revolution Was, Ex America, and Rise of Empire, were first published as separate monographs by The Caxton Printers. They were written in that order, but at different times, as the eventful film unrolled itself. They are mainly descriptive. They purport to tell what it was happened and how it happened, from a point of view in which there is no sickly pretense of neutralism. Why it happened is a further study and belongs to the philosophy of history, if there is such a thing; else to some meaning of experience, dire or saving, that has not yet been revealed.
"What is Freedom? … Could there be such a thing as unconditional freedom, short of anarchy?" Is this in my current mental wheelhouse, or what? 🙂
The Education Handicap
I started to title this post "Polls on Trump"; but decided that meme needed a rest. 🙂
Besides, my interest in the fascinating LA Times piece entitled, "Polls may actually underestimate Trump's support, study finds" is to comment on the often mentioned polling difference, between those with and without a college degree. Researchers ran an interesting experiment, to study why Trump's poll numbers were always higher in online polling, than in traditional telephone surveys:
The most telling part of the experiment, however, was that not all types of people responded the same way. Among blue-collar Republicans, who have formed the core of Trump's support, the polls were about the same regardless of method. But among college-educated Republicans, a bigger difference appeared, with Trump scoring 9 points better in the online poll.
Social-desirability bias — the well-known tendency of people to hesitate to confess certain unpopular views to a pollster — provides the most likely explanation for that education gap, Dropp and his colleagues believe.
Blue-collar voters don't feel embarrassed about supporting Trump, who is very popular in their communities. But many college-educated Republicans hesitate to admit their attraction to the blustery New York billionaire, the experiment indicates.
That finding suggests that the online surveys, which show Trump with a larger lead, provide the more accurate measure of what people would do in the anonymity of a voting booth, Dropp said. That might not be as true, however, in a public setting such as the Iowa caucus, where people identify their candidate preference in front of friends and neighbors.
"It's our sense that a lot of polls are under-reporting Trump's overall support," he said.
In other words, college educated folks lie to protect their self-image as sophisticates, while truthful working class folks are not at all embarrassed by their judgements.

Introducing Objectivism
In political discussions, I generally identify myself as a small (el) libertarian, since it is too time consuming to explain what I mean, when I say I am an objectivist. There are, however, profound differences between some of the various schools of libertarianism, and the specific philosophy of Ayn Rand, which she named objectivism. This will serve as a succinct introduction to the subject, to which I can link in future discussions here and elsewhere.
The Ayn Rand Institute has some superb interactive online courses. They just added a short 15 minute introductory course on objectivism, narrated by Ayn Rand herself. It is very well done, and I highly recommend it. However, although it is free of charge, one must enroll in their online university to watch it. While safe and painless, few would probably bother to do so. Thus, the following is the transcript of Ayn Rand's voice-over, without the visuals:
At a sales conference at Random House, preceding the publication of Atlas Shrugged, one of the book salesmen asked me whether I could present the essence of my philosophy while standing on one foot. I did, as follows:
1. Metaphysics: Objective Reality
2. Epistemology: Reason
3. Ethics: Self-interest
4. Politics: Capitalism

They are now coming so 'fast and furious' that it is impossible to keep up with them in any depth anyway.
Yet, I find it impossible to just give up and let the
Pro Retrogressives win a total and final victory, which would bind our posterity in the ancient chains of serfdom, in the land our forefathers fought and died to keep free. I think we need a positive project to focus our energy on, which would at least attempt to save our country for our grandchildren.
It is they, the children, who are the future of America. Yet, presently they are ever increasingly and deliberately being dumbed down. They are indoctrinated in our public schools, to be ashamed of America's past, and view a Marxist utopia as its inevitable future. If we really want to save America, first and foremost this trend must be reversed. Read the rest of this entry »

Who Owns a Child?
I am very comfortable with my libertarian philosophy, which propounds individual sovereignty and Liberty for freemen and women, with the natural right to live their lives as they choose to live them, as long as they do not forcefully interfere with or violate the natural rights of others. I have carefully worked out in my head, how such free individuals can live at peace with their neighbors, meeting in the commons for commerce and fraternity, as free traders giving no more than they take, in entirely voluntary value for value exchanges, which enrich each other's lives.
Thus, I regard one's home as his castle, and his real estate as his sovereign domain, where he gets to make the rules, which visitors are bound to abide. When he steps off his private property, however, he must abide by the standards, social customs, and rules of the community. If there were no social compact and universally accepted basic rules, to insure that any vehicle coming around the next bend would be on the other side of the road, it would be chaos. I am fine with that, and wouldn't have it any other way.
Where my philosophy falls completely apart, however, is when it comes to the welfare of children. Having discussed this issue with folks of all political persuasions, I can assure all that empathy for an innocent child is a sincerely held universal human trait, The question becomes, what are parental rights and responsibilities vs. any sort of societal rights and responsibilities vs. children's rights.
Best Advice Yet
I enjoyed reading an "Exclusive Interview With Diapason's Sean Corrigan" about the world economy, which I highly recommend for the insights provided. Then, near the end, his answer to the following question was so profound that I wanted to memorialize it here for future reference:
We here at Zero Hedge are labelled as fringe lunatics who thrive on bad news. We only take issue with this to the extent that the label allows "others" to dismiss us out of hand, while not debating us on the merits of our ideas and opinions. Central to our platform is the debunking of generally accepted conclusions of mainstream Wall Street Economist and Strategists. We do so, not only because it is sometimes fun, but because we want to encourage our readers and ourselves to think beyond what we are all being spoon fed. We are interested in what advice you would give a 25 year old graduating from University about the future. How should they think about money, how should they be investing, and what do you think their future will look like (10 year time horizon) in a developed nation? Would you give different advice to a 25 year old in an emerging nation?
WTP-02 Lucky Canada
I used to pity Canadian conservatives their plight, stuck living under the rule of a Progressive majority. It just occurred to me that we have now allowed the bastards to overwhelm us too, and the Canadians have it better than we do. More importantly, their prognosis for the future far exceeds ours. They are energy independent, better educated, and are starting to scale back on failed social programs. We have a long hard row to hoe, before we have experienced enough pain to catch up to their reality. Here is another view from the outside looking in, found in a WTP comment section of six-month-old article I stumbled across. Somebody should send it to the RNC:

Cleanup crews find surprises at Point
Crews doing cleanup work at the former Naval Air Station Alameda have found some surprises over the past few months. For one, they hit a 15'x15'x15′ mystery object lodged in the Seaplane Lagoon. Oh, and they also just happened to stumble across a previously undiscovered 50-square-foot-patch of radium-contaminated concrete.
The discoveries have led to fresh concerns about the thoroughness of the Navy's cleanup efforts on the contaminated base.
"If somebody hadn't happened to wander over there with their survey meter, (the radium) would still be out there," said George Humphreys, a member of the citizen board charged with overseeing the base cleanup.
The Navy has put together a preliminary plan for cleaning up the "riprap anomaly," which is what they're calling the radium find.
"It's in a small area. I don't think it will be a lot of work," said Pat Brooks, the Navy's cleanup coordinator. Brooks said that the rest of the western shoreline of the lagoon has been checked and that "nothing unusual" was found.
The Navy has no plans to move the mystery object out of the lagoon, Brooks said.
The unidentified sunken object was discovered by work crews cleaning up debris piles along the northern shore of the lagoon, who found it when their digging equipment scraped against it, Brooks said.
He said it could be a block of concrete. But Councilman Frank Matarrese, who also sits on the citizen oversight board, said the city's base cleanup consultant thinks it could be some kind of storage tank.
The radium contamination was discovered by work and radiological survey crews as they wandered the western shore of the lagoon, as part of their efforts to clean up contaminated storm drains. (Humphreys said the chalky residue looks like it came out of a paint bucket. "Apparently, it glows in the dark," he said.)
Humphreys and Matarrese both expressed concern about the discoveries, which come a dozen years after the base was closed. And they said they think the Navy needs to be more thorough in its cleanup efforts.
Humphreys wants the Navy to survey the whole base for contamination, starting with the northern shore of Seaplane Lagoon where the debris removal is being done. (The Navy has no plans to check for any further contamination in that area, according to a recent presentation to the citizen board.)
Matarrese – who said he thinks cleanup issues dwarf all other concerns about development of the base – wants the Navy to agree to clean up any contamination found after the base is transferred to a new owner. The city and SunCal, which is slated to redevelop the former base, are negotiating a new land transfer agreement with the Navy; the results of those negotiations are slated to come at the end of March.
"After 10 years of studying and sampling, they found something they didn't expect by happenstance," he said. "There are going to be difficulties that we're going to have to hold the Navy accountable for."

"Capital of Brazilian Reggae" Săo Luís by sanguin
Săo Luís Travel Guide: 41 reviews and 237 photos
If Săo Luís' old town is beautiful during the day, it is amazing at night. It doesn't matter where you go as long as you stay in the historic center. Have a pizza, have a caipirinha, dance some reggae, let the night flow....
Life is good!
If I could remember where exactly it's located, I'd save it as a tip. Anyway, the next morning, after a night of reggae and caipi, check out the French café. It's in the historic center, too, so someone sure can tell you the way. Good coffee and croissants, a quiet place and a nice view.

We verify experimentally, over a dynamic range of 55 dB in the probability distribution, that the amplified spontaneous emission noise of the 0's from an optically preamplified receiver is degenerate Bose–Einstein distributed. Using the noise parameters extracted from the experiment, we are able to predict the sensitivity of a 10-Gbit/s direct-detection receiver.
