The only extant records for Alabama of the almost-destroyed 1890 census are portions of Perryville (Beat No. 11) and Severe (Beat No. 8) of Perry County.
Territorial and State
A state census was taken in 1820, although records exist for only eight counties. These counties are Baldwin, Conecuh, Dallas, Franklin, Limestone, St. Clair, Shelby, and Wilcox. These records have been published and indexed.
You can find an online database available at Ancestry.com that includes state censuses from 1820, 1850, 1855, and 1866. Subscribers can access it here at Alabama State Census, 1820-1866. This collection was indexed by Ancestry.com World Archives Project contributors.
Ancestry.com also has another Alabama census collection that was indexed by Accelerated Indexing in 1999. It contains the following indexes: 1810 Census Index; 1810-1819 Tax Lists Index; 1820 Federal Census Index; 1830 Federal Census Index; 1830-1839 Early Records; 1840 Federal Census Index; 1840 Pensioners Index; 1850 Federal Census Index; 1855 State Census Index; 1860 Federal Census Index; 1860 Mortality Schedules; 1860 Slave Schedules; 1870 Federal Census Index; 1890 Pensioners Index; Alabama Early Census, Vol. 1 and Vol. 2. Subscribers can access this collection at Alabama Census, 1810-90.
Alabama's early census records are scant when compared with other states of the same age. Elizabeth Shown Mills cites twelve groups of census or census substitute materials for 1706 through 1816'19, all with enumerations compiled before statehood, in her essay 'Alabama' in Genealogical Research: Methods and Sources, vol. 2, rev. ed. (Washington, D.C.: American Society of Genealogists, 1983). Sources for locating the census and substitutes are cited as well.
State censuses were taken sporadically. A sizable but incomplete collection exists, including one for 1855, which is indexed. The 1850 and 1866 censuses survive and are widely available on microfilm, but are not indexed. Information on them includes only the head of household and demographic enumeration for the household. The 1866 census adds information about household members killed, wounded or missing in the Civil War. The originals are housed in the Alabama Department of Archives and History. Microfilmed copies may be purchased from them (see Archives, Libraries, and Societies for address). Enumerations of Native American Alabama inhabitants were made before cession of their lands. Other significant sources for Alabama's Native Americans are cited in National Archives and Records Service, American Indians: A Select Catalog of National Archives Microfilm Publications (Washington, D.C.: NARA, 1984) (see page 15). The enumerations include these works:
- Crumpton, Barbara J. 1884 Hester Roll of the Eastern Cherokee. Duncan, Okla.: Creative Copies, 1986 (NARA M685, reel 12).
- Felldin, Jeanne Roby, and Charlotte Magee Tucker. 1832 Census of Creek Indians Taken By Parsons and Abbott (With an Added Full Names Index of 'White' Names). Tomball, Tex.: Genealogical Publications, 1978 (NARA T275, 1 reel).

In 1907 a census was taken of Alabama's Confederate veterans. County tax assessors canvassed all persons who were receiving a pension for Confederate service. Information enumerated includes name, place of residence, date and place of birth, enlistment and discharge or parole, rank, and name of military unit. Originals are housed in the Alabama Department of Archives and History and are now available from them on microfilm. From 1958 through 1982, the Alabama Genealogical Society, Inc., Magazine published Alabama Confederate pensioners lists from several counties.
Another census was taken in 1921 of Confederate pensioners in Alabama. This census was taken by mail with each pensioner being asked to complete and return the form to the state. The original forms may be examined at the Alabama Department of Archives and History and are widely available on microfilm, as is the 1927 census of widow pensioners.

Everyone wants their kid to do well.
I get it.
This is probably an instinct that goes all the way back to cavemen. I can just imagine how proud the cave parents must have been when little cavekid, jr. came back from a hunt where he had captured the biggest rabbit.
So proud.
Parents live for their children's successes.
Now, instead of rabbits, it's games. The more the better.
Travel this. Club that. All Stars. Select teams.
The farther away a team is the better it must be. Bonus points if your child plays out-of-state.
Double-bonus points if they play with older kids.
I think this is great, but we have forgotten half of the process.
Parents should also live for their child's failures.
This may sound terrible, but it's true.
Our children have to learn not to touch a hot stove. Sometimes they learn this lesson best immediately after they touch a hot stove.
There are lessons to be learned in striking out, making an error, fumbling, hitting a ball out-of-bounds, and losing.
Failing has gotten a bad rap.
Our society wants to take it completely out of the equation. We seem to have a need to protect our kids from the awful feeling of finishing second.
We might do this because we no longer have to protect our children from wild animals or any of the other unspeakable dangers cave people experienced.
We seem to believe if our kids always succeed, they will always succeed.
The truth is, if we want our children to be successful, they have to know how to fail and how to respond to failure.
Everyone is going to get knocked down sooner or later. My fear is too many of today's kids won't know how to get up.
I continually see parents who are willing to do anything to make sure their child doesn't fail.
They will spend any amount of money. Put them on any team. Drive them any distance.
Yell at any adult who doesn't put their child on a pedestal and give them a trophy.
Make untold sacrifices just so their son or daughter can experience success.
And the truth is the best way for them to experience this elusive feeling of success is not more, it's less.
Let them fail. They will live.
Now, they won't thank us for this. In fact, as parents we may have to be the bad guy.
At least for awhile.
But one day, they will be happy their parents let them fail.
Just not today.

10 Incredible Hands Off routines
The one condition I set myself in developing these routines is that effects would not be diluted just because they were 'Hands Off' - in fact, if anything, they would become stronger. Well they did become stronger, much stronger! A couple of these routines have been published before however they have now been fully updated to become totally 'Hands Off'. For instance my 'Echo' routine is fully described with complete patter and a new finish. There are also lots of new routines that are all extremely commercial.

These fantastic screw in pegs are much better than ordinary tent pegs. Each peg has an inbuilt handle making them very easy to screw into the ground. They stay in better than traditional tent pegs and are also quicker and easier to remove because you can simply unscrew them.
The pegs come in a pack of 12 with a drill adapter for even quicker screwing in and unscrewing. To make sure you don't lose the adapter, it simply twists into place in your Eglu's run mesh as shown. These pegs are super strong and long lasting too, and they come in the iconic Omlet green!
You can use them for:
- Securing an Eglu to the ground
- Securing a tent or awning to the ground
- Securing guy ropes to the ground
If your ground is just a bit uneven, you can ensure the Eglu run is firmly secured with these excellent pegs.

Latest Product Reviews For Omlet Screw Pegs - 12 Pack
Strong secure ground fixings for run - Diana, West midlands,
A good way to secure your runs. I like these because they are easy to screw out and easily visible when I need to move my run around the lawn,
Ok - Jayne,
The screw pegs are are fine for the flat fox proof wire at base of wire housing and screwing them into grass makes them secure as not easily lifted out.
The Omlet Screw Pegs are excellent - Ruth, Taunton,
These pegs are very easy to use. They are of good quality; sturdy, strong and work so much better than tent pegs which I was using before. They hold down the anti fox skirt very firmly, so my chooks are completely safe.
excellent - Chris,
Just what is needed to keep the skirting tight to the ground on an uneven surface - one of the pegs snapped but if treated carefully and once they are in the ground they clamp onto the wire and hold very well. Clever how they screw into / out of the ground - I don't think Mr / Mrs Fox can do that !
- Jill,
Really pleased with my purchase, took my son-in-law and myself 1 1/2 hours approx. to assembly. Coco and Biscuit love going outside, they are Ragdoll crosses and as I live on a busy road I know they are safe. (and so are the birds!!!)

Newspaper article St Louis Post-Dispatch (MO)
NHL, Union Will Resume Talks Today; Weekend Progress Leads to Optimism about Deal
Article excerpt
NEW YORK * The NHL and the players' association stuck to their word and made quick plans to get back to the bargaining table.
After all-day negotiations Saturday, the sides agreed Monday to resume talks today in New York. Both sides said the discussions over the weekend were good, creating some optimism that perhaps a deal could soon be reached to save the already truncated hockey season.
The NHL and union hadn't met since Oct. 18, when each side turned down offers. NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly and players' association special counsel Steve Fehr got together by themselves Saturday in an undisclosed location and held productive talks.
"We had a series of meetings over the course of the day and had a good, frank discussion on the most important issues separating us," Daly said Sunday.
He and Fehr talked on the phone several times during the week and reached enough common ground to make face-to-face meetings possible.
Fehr echoed Daly's encouraging remarks after Saturday's get- together, which lasted well into the night.
"Hopefully we can continue the dialogue, expand the group, and make steady progress," Fehr said.
It wasn't immediately determined Monday whether today's bargaining session would be conducted by just Daly and Fehr or if a larger group perhaps including NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman and NHLPA executive director Donald Fehr would also take part.
The lockout entered its 51st day Monday. So far, 327 games including the outdoor Winter Classic have been called off, and the NHL says a full season won't be played.
No new formal proposals were made Saturday, but it is believed the issue of payments of existing player contracts was a big part of the discussions.
"I'm not in a position to talk substance about agenda or expectations," Daly wrote in an email to The Associated Press.
A major point of contention between the NHL and the players' association has been the "make whole" provision, which will ensure that all current player contracts will be paid out regardless of any changes made to the split of hockey-related revenue or contract language. …

In the summer of 1944, the Red Army entered Eastern Europe in its westward push towards Berlin. The Soviets liberated these territories from the Nazi occupation, but did not leave them. Instead, with the help of local communists, they implemented the communist system patterned on the Soviet model. By the late 1970s, the Soviet model began to break apart, only to collapse in the late 1980s. Why did the communist system, which seemed politically and militarily strong, suddenly collapse? Why did it find so few defenders in the late 1980s even among its own ruling elites? By focusing on the countries of the former Soviet Bloc (Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, East Germany, Bulgaria, Romania, Albania), this seminar will address the long- and short-term causes of the decline of communism. Special attention will be paid to the relationship between state and society, and between everyday life and geopolitical issues.

MGT433: Securing The Human: How to Build, Maintain and Measure a High-Impact Awareness Program
Sun, September 20 - Mon, September 21, 2015
This course has content every employee can use. Whether from a large company or small. It has sound starting point everyone can use.
I'm running a global program as a team of one. The networking is invaluable.
Organizations have invested a tremendous amount of money and resources into securing technology, but little if anything into securing their employees and staff. As a result, people, not technology, have become their weakest link in cybersecurity. The most effective way to secure the human element is to establish a high-impact security awareness program that goes beyond just compliance and changes behaviors. This intense two-day course will teach you the key concepts and skills needed to build, maintain and measure just such a program. All course content is based on lessons learned from hundreds of security awareness programs from around the world. You will learn not only from your instructor, but from extensive interaction with your peers, as well. Please bring example materials from your security awareness program that you can show and share with other students during the course.
Finally, through a series of labs and exercises, you will develop your own custom security awareness plan that you can implement as soon as you return to your organization.
You Will Learn:
- The Security Awareness Maturity Model and how to use it as the roadmap for your awareness program.
- How to effectively engage and communicate within your organization.
- How to identify and mitigate the top human risks to your organization.
- How to sustain your security awareness program over the long term, including updating content and communication methods and, ultimately, changing your organization's culture.
- How to measure the impact of your awareness program, track reduction in human risk, and communicate the value of such a program to management.

Press & Reviews
"The' Who' and 'What' of training and awareness is just what I needed to take back home." - David Nix, Department of Energy
"Soup to nuts, this class covers the entire designing, building, deploying and measuring of an effective security awareness program." - Chris Sorensen - GE Capital
"MGT433 gives great view on how to build a full security program." - Eman Al Awadhi, TRA
Author Statement
Having been actively involved in information security for more than 15 years, I have seen one constant factor: people are the weakest link. What amazes me is that so many security professionals agree on this point, but so few do anything about it. I am determined to change that. I am extremely excited about MGT433, as we provide organizations with the skills and resources they need to build a high-impact security awareness program that will not only change behaviors, but also measure that change.

Busy Media Day
Busy media day today, which is Day 2.
ESPN TV's Baseball Tonight Grapefruit ExpressTour show is live from Bright House Field today at 3 p.m. Karl Ravech, John Kruk and Bobby Valentine are here and will be on a set located in the main concourse behind third base. Chase, Cole and Brad are among the interviews.
Following today's workout, Halladay will hold a briefing with the media. It has brought more national media into camp as well as Toronto media from the Blue Jays camp in nearby Dunedin.
Pitchers and catchers did much of the same as Day 1 with groups 3-4 getting in their 15-minute throwing sessions. The schedule includes PFP. What is PFP? I'll get into that tomorrow.
The position players who are in camp took batting practice at Bright House Field while the pitchers and catchers did their thing at Carpenter Complex.
Kruk, Dave Hollins and Milt Thompson hooked up in conversations behind the batting cage. Could have taken a mini-1993 team photo.
Alumni Memories
A daily feature is spring training memories by Phillies Alumni, who were asked three questions: (1) Memories of their very first spring training; (2) What they liked the most about spring training, and (3) What did they like the least.
Darold Knowles (LHP, 1966; CH, 1989-90)
"I was in Thomasville, GA, with the Orioles in 1961. We lived in a dormitory so I had plenty of roommates. I remember I was scared to death that first day. Earl Weaver was a minor league manager with us. I loved the city, the pine trees and southern beauty of Thomasville. I had never been out of my home state of Missouri until then. I had a desire to make it but was uncertain. It seemed like there was a lot of weight on my shoulders."
Next post: Saturday.

World History
Far from being the saviors of society, the new breed of anti-market conservatives are merely the newest iteration of the long line of anti-social apologists for state domination.
There's nothing necessarily wrong with social shunning and ostracization used against those who seek to destroy others through lies and media manipulation.
Bernie Sanders's proposed "House Fixing tax" would not only hurt flippers and their homebuying customers but also some landlords and tenants as well.
History of the Austrian School of Economics
Mises did not just proclaim to the masses that civilization was in danger. Rather, Mises dedicated his entire life to educating his fellow man about sound economics and its importance to freedom and liberalism.
Media and CultureSocialism
Libertarian Christians should be aware that they are not compromising their beliefs or somehow acting in a way divorced from Christian history and orthodoxy when they do not join illiberal Christians in their quest for power and control over non-believers.
Media and Culture
Conservatives appear to be increasingly in favor of using the power of the state to force their agenda. But what happens when the state they favor is turned against them?
Many cultural conservatives increasingly succumb to the temptation to call on the state to solve our problems, and to punish our leftist adversaries. But they're making a big mistake.
War and Foreign Policy
One of the world's most militaristic Islamic dictatorships — Saudi Arabia — lobbies heavily in Washington to increase US military spending — and the Saudis are rewarded handsomely for their efforts.

SayIDOnate necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 119 diseños de 21 diseñadores freelance.
Say I DOnate
Say I DOnate is a social business enterprise dedicated to eliminating the environmental waste created by wrapping gifts purchased via wedding registries and raising donations in lieu of wrapping for Say I DOnate's affiliated charitable organizations.
Couples registering for weddings
Retailers that have a wedding registry business
Charities that would be interested in partnering with us
Say I DOnate's name is a combination of Say I DO and Say I DOnate. The idea is to get couples to bypass gift wrapping for their wedding presents when they register with affiliated retaliers. In lieu of wrapping, a small donation will be made to an affiliate charity of their choice. This will benefit both the environment -- wrapping presents is a huge waste of paper and other materials -- and the charities that receive donations as a result.
The logo should clearly read both: Say I DO and Say I DOnate. Please include "I DO" (Say I DOnate) in capital letters as shown, unless you come up with a groundbreaking idea that blows that out of the water.
I would like the logo to look very classy and upscale. We will be pitching our idea to high-end retailers and highly educated consumers.
Suggestions for graphics include -- a package, ribbon, wrapping paper - to suggest that wrapping is unecessary. Could also include a wedding theme. Logo should get across our main point -- wrapping wedding gifts is both uncessary and an environmental waste. We would like to eliminate that wasted and raise donations for worthy causes in it's place. Please take these suggestions and be very creative.
Suggested colors colors include -- yellow, light pink, purple, white, pale green

Yong Tau Foo or Stuffed Fish Paste it's one of popular Malaysia Hakka hawker food.These days we can just buy the ready made fish paste from any fish monger if you're not choosy about the taste and quality.I know some people like my mom who still prefer to make her own fish paste from scratch.To be honest,her own make fish paste taste better and the texture is very bouncy without using any food chemical.So beggar like me who do not live in Asia or Malaysia can't be choosy,right? haha!! Anyway,my own make creation of Yong Tau Foo is still not bad since I mixed with some chicken meat with the fish paste together..like yin and yan!!

200 gm minced chicken
1 tbsp ground white pepper
1 tsp salt
1 stalk cilantro, chopped
1 red pepper,discard seeds and chopped
8 sweet pepper,cut 1/2 ,discard seeds
2 large bean curd sheet,cut square

It's been a long journey for South African architect Lance Herbst, the man behind New Zealand's Home of the Year.
There's a scene in the classic Coen Brothers' film The Big Lebowski when Walter Sobchak spits out that: "life does not stop and start at your own convenience". Architect Lance Herbst can relate to this line from his favourite movie. Herbst Architects has just been named winner in NZ Home magazine's 2012 Home of the Year awards. But architecture was not a calling.
Herbst may be at the top of his game now but he cannot recount stories of drawing buildings as a youngster or rearranging the spaces of his childhood home in the Constantia Valley, Cape Town.
"At school, I took an aptitude test and they said I should be a lawyer."
But he left South African College School determined not to be a lawyer, and with very few plans in mind. Herbst was lucky, then, to have a number of good friends who lived in houses that captured his imagination. Built in the 70s, they were examples of LA-style modernism, all low-slung and white.
When he was invited to architect Ernest Ford's home, he was captivated and found his path. Herbst now calls that house: "a rigorous experiment in concentric circles", but in his youth, he probably called it "cool".
He decided to study architecture and his parents breathed a sigh of relief.
On completion of his degree, he was offered a partnership at Ernest Ford and thrown full tilt into the deep end of his profession. "I was not well enough equipped for it. I had yet to find my own strength."
The first house he designed was on a steep hillside and echoed the idea of those circles within circles he'd been so taken with. It was a complicated project complete with attendant complications. "I think it's still standing," Herbst jokes. "Looking back, I can see my intention with that house but the way it was resolved was, well ..."
These days, with the constant sounding board of his architect wife, Nicky, he's more centred and assured. "It has taken me 20 years to learn how to make a building properly. I liken it to playing an instrument; it's only when you are a very fluent musician that you can start to think more emotionally about the process."
It's this layer of emotion that elevates the designer's art and the Piha holiday home that is the Home of the Year is a sublime example. The site, blanketed in mature pohutukawa, was certainly special but lesser architects would have run a mile from the red tape and vocal community.
"The pohutukawa is not only protected but much-loved. The section also occupied a space on the beach where there was a continuous swathe of these trees," Herbst explains.
Disturbing the environment as little as possible became the number one criterion. The result is a house that gets in among it so stealthily that it becomes almost imperceptible. Built under the tall canopy, on light legs that will not damage the tree roots, it emerges at night as a subtle glow from the forest.
The basic layout is of two bedroom towers joined by a central living zone.
Here, geometric tree-like supports hold up the roof which is partially glazed to let in the view from above. "It's an ambiguous space," says Herbst. "You feel you are neither inside nor out."
Metaphorical references don't end there. Irregular black-stained battens form the "skin" of the towers and allude to the rough bark of a tree. Inside these structures, the walls and ceiling are clad in light ply to emulate the pale innards of a stump.
Herbst is a master of the detail in design, somehow combining mathematical precision with an over-arching organic influence.
"We constantly refer to the genesis of modernist thinking - to people like Le Corbusier and Alvar Aalto who had a very sensual way of working with form and materials," he says.
Away from the drawing board, he likes spend time at the couple's bach on Great Barrier Island, to surf as much as possible and play guitar "extremely badly". He seems less comfortable talking about these subjects and inevitably, the conversation swings back to design.
After reeling off a list of his favourite indie bands - Destroyer, Villagers and the Pains of Being Pure at Heart - he recounts a lovely story fellow architect Ken Crosson told him that involved architecture and music.
"It was about a house Ken designed for a classical musician that was clad in 'irregular' battens that actually represented notes. The owner could read the facade of her house and play a concerto from it," he says gleefully.
When he finds time, movies are a happy distraction. "I'm a big Coen Brothers' fan and must have watched the Big Lebowski 10 times. Lars von Trier's The 5 Obstructions is a brilliant piece that keeps my friend, Kevin, and me in conversation, and I thought Baz Luhrmann's Romeo and Juliet very strong."
Until recently, as seems to be de rigueur in the architectural fraternity, he owned a classic European car. The Peugeot 504 convertible he brought with him from South Africa has since been sold. "It was a beautiful design, a cross between European and American styling, like a small flat slab," he says. But his workload became such that the car needed more TLC than he could offer. He surrendered it to a more attentive owner. He drives a silver Audi now, but when asked which vehicle he'd never own, this ecologically sensitive architect's answer is obvious. "I wouldn't be seen dead in a Hummer."
Keen to evolve his art and his business sense, Herbst reads widely. He's just finished Steve Jobs' biography and is now immersed in a book by Japanese architect Kengo Kumo. Tokyo-based Kumo advocates architecture that "disappears" rather than that which is self aggrandising. Kumo calls this approach "anti-object".
Herbst needs little prompting to explore this philosophy but he is able to contextualise the argument. "In some instances, architecture has to be about 'object'. If a building is going to displace space, which it will, you may as well make it a noble quest."
He singles out Frank Gehry's work as a soaring example of this. "And we wouldn't have the Sydney Opera House without this approach. It's a confident piece of sculpture."
Herbst knows he's come some distance from those naive concentric circles of his early designs. He does not veer wildly away from the self-taught lessons he's absorbed along the way. "Part of me says you should be taking quantum leaps into new things all the time but, as one gets older, you realise the value of moving forward in small steps."

Crowd-sourcing Massachusetts's Milestones
Forty milestones erected by 1767 on the route between Boston and Springfield (with, it appears, a few on the road from Boston to Cambridge) were entered on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971. Their Wikipedia entry offers photographs of many and geographic locations for all. That page automatically pumps out a Google Map of those locations.
Another resource, which I learned about from the City Record and Boston News-Letter blog, is this Historic American Buildings Survey publication completed in 1935-36. It includes drawings and maps of the stones then known.
The Stones Structures website catalogues several milestones that didn't make Wikipedia, and invites folks to send in more photographs. Waymarking offers photos of more in central Massachusetts in its "Milestones" grouping. In addition, the Jamaica Plain Historical Society offers a couple of newspaper articles about the milestones in that area.
According to Boston.com, the state transportation department has catalogued 47 early milestones. How does its list match up with those on these websites? Are there more out there, perhaps removed from busy roads?
Is anyone up for creating a comprehensive map and catalogue of all the markers that exist in Massachusetts or New England today? Perhaps that could be a class project, or a collaboration among schools. It might even preserve the memory of some now-vanished stones known to have stood in 1909 when this Brookline Historical Society paper was written. Anyone?


text: While virtually unknown in the U.S., pop singer Jennifer Rush achieved superstar status as an expatriate in Europe, selling millions of records and releasing a string of hit singles notable for their booming, dance-rock arrangements and Rush's powerful voice. Born Heidi Stern in New York City, Rush's father was an opera singer and her mother was a pianist. At the age of nine, she moved to Germany with her family, returning in her teens to the States. In 1982, she returned to Germany with her father to pursue a singing career, signing a deal with CBS/Columbia. Changing her name to Jennifer Rush, she released a series of songs that made her a star in Europe, including "Into My Dreams," "Come Give Me Your Hand," "25 Lovers," and "Ring of Ice." In 1985, Rush scored a massive European hit with "The Power of Love," which became one of the longest-running chart-toppers in U.K. history. The song, which she also co-wrote, was packaged with several of her other European hits for her U.S. debut Jennifer Rush. Released as a single, "The Power of Love" failed to duplicate its success upon its stateside release, only reaching number 57. Instead, versions of the song by Laura Branigan and Celine Dion hit the American Top 40 (the latter hitting number one for a month in 1994). It wasn't until her third U.S. release, Heart Over Mind, that Rush reached the Top 40 as an artist with her duet with Elton John, "Flames of Paradise," reaching number 37 in 1987. She continued to retain a large European following throughout the rest of the '80s and '90s, collaborating with writers such as Desmond Child and Diane Warren and performing with high-profile acts like Michael Bolton and Placido Domingo. Despite selling millions of albums abroad, most of her albums have not been released in the U.S. ~ Tom Demalon

(2010; 81 pages) [Spanish]
Access to medicines is a core element of any pharmaceutical policy and one of the main priorities of public health policy. There are a number of challenges that we face in ensuring access to medicines including artificially low target levels of coverage, financially-strapped health care systems, limitations associated with medicine supply networks, and problems relating to access to health care services for a significant portion of the population. The situation is worse in the case of high-cost medicines, principally because of additional complexities associated with ensuring access to products that retain market exclusivity guaranteed under the patent system and granted as a means to stimulate pharmaceutical research and development. The Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS Agreement) provides a set of flexibilities to assist governments to improve access to innovative therapies. Innovation for purposes of developing new health care technologies must be part of a broader framework within intersectoral efforts to improve health and development.1 A key component of access to medicines is affordability. The price of a medicine should not account for such a high percentage of income that consumers are either unable to afford the medicine or they are forced to sacrifice other basic needs to acquire them. In the case of medicines covered by social security systems which are either free or subsidized for users, cost is still relevant as it poses a threat to the financial sustainability of the health care system as a whole.
Asymmetries in information combined with the absence of market transparency represent other major obstacles to ensuring access. These problems must be addressed if we are to create the necessary conditions to improve access to new technologies within national health care systems in a manner that is rational, consistent with the evidence-based needs of health care.
In view of the above, it is now more critical than ever that countries in the Region of the Americas understand the need to implement coherent pharmaceutical policies. Moreover, policy implementation should be accompanied with impact assessments to ensure effective performance, bearing in mind key aspects such as innovation and management of intellectual property rights. The use of the evidence-based approach constitutes an important element for the formulation of sustainable public policies. Some of the new challenges discussed in this document have long been the focus of discussions at the international level; for example, the evaluation of health technologies and price regulation. It is now the time to review lessons learned with a view to implementing effective pharmaceutical policies in the countries of the Region, taking into consideration the recent Report of the Commission on Intellectual Property Rights, Innovation and Public Health of the World Health Organization (WHO). This document includes four chapters and two annexes. Chapter 1 provides information on background to the publication and its objectives. Chapter 2 discusses the issue of access to highcost, limited-source medicines from the public health perspective and within the framework of some WHO/PAHO initiatives. Chapter 3 describes the challenges that high-cost medicines pose for the Region, while Chapter 4 puts forward a series of strategies to help improve access to these medicines. With regard to the annexes included in this publication, Annex I provides background information on the First International Meeting on Access to High-Cost and Limited-Source Medicines, while Annex II summarizes some of the presentations given at that event...

In his latest for the New York Times, Paul Krugman weighs in on whether Cyprus would be better off without the euro.
Krugman says he's been challenged by someone he respects to take a position on the issue.
Thus, he writes:
So here it is: yes, Cyprus should leave the euro. Now.
The reason is straightforward: staying in the euro means an incredibly severe depression, which will last for many years while Cyprus tries to build a new export sector. Leaving the euro, and letting the new currency fall sharply, would greatly accelerate that rebuilding.
If you look at Cyprus's trade profile, you see just how much damage the country is about to sustain. This is a highly open economy with just two major exports, banking services and tourism — and one of them just disappeared. This would lead to a severe slump on its own. On top of that, the troika is demanding major new austerity, even though the country supposedly has rough primary (non-interest) budget balance. I wouldn't be surprised to see a 20 percent fall in real GDP.
Krugman's argument is similar to that made by Moody's on Sunday night, when the credit rating agency said Cyprus was still at risk of defaulting on its public debt and leaving the common currency.
The chart below from Moody's shows just how integral to Cypriot economic growth the banking sector there has become.
Krugman points out that since capital controls are already in place in Cyprus – as the country braces to re-open its banks and commence a run on deposits – there's not much left to lose on that front.
"So if I were dictator, I'd just extend the bank holiday long enough to prepare for the new currency," says Krugman.

Standing amid Pankratz Memorial Prairie it's easy to imagine what early pioneers saw as they made their way west. Acre upon acre of tallgrass prairie spreads out on the vista, which once was the beachfront of ancient Lake Agassiz. Herds of buffalo roamed this sandy soil, polishing smooth a large glacial boulder with the weight of their bodies. This boulder stands as a testament to pre-settlement times.
This land now is part of an expansive effort to connect Pankratz with the 1,624-acre Chicog State Wildlife Management Area, thereby creating more habitat for plants and animals to thrive. The Nature Conservancy, together with Trust for Public Land, the US Fish & Wildlife Service and the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources recently preserved a high quality 2,800-acre tallgrass prairie, called Thorson Prairie.
Pankratz is made of two tracts of land - a 468-acre north unit and a 452-acre south unit. It is five miles from the Conservancy's largest prairie-wetland restoration project in U.S. history - Glacial Ridge.
To visit the north unit: From Crookston, drive east on U.S. Highway 2 for six miles to the intersection with County Road 46. Turn south and travel one-and-a-half miles to reach the west corner of the unit. To park, turn east onto the gravel road by the preserve sign. Please do not block the township road. The boulder rubbed smooth by buffalo is located here, near the center.
To visit the south unit: Drive south from the preserve sign for one-and-a-half miles and turn east. Travel a one-half mile to the west side of this part of the preserve.
920 acres
Among the plants inhabiting the preserve are tall blazing star, poison hemlock, prairie gentian and the rare small white lady's slipper. Two rare sedges also are found on the site: Hall's sedge and Canadian single-spike sedge.
More than 100 bird species have been identified on the preserve. In addition to the greater prairie chicken, some of the most unique are Wilson's phalarope, upland sandpiper, marbled godwit, sharp-tailed sparrow, yellow rail and red-tailed hawk. Several mammals live on or visit the preserve, including white-tailed deer and moose.
Why the Conservancy Selected This Site
Pankratz Memorial Prairie - one of the largest fens in the area -features a unique assemblage of plant communities. Dry prairie knolls containing dryland porcupine grass are found only yards away from low prairie swales, dominated by sedges and prairie cordgrass. This mosaic allows diverse plant and animal families to thrive.
The Conservancy chose this site because of its location within one of the main cores of the larger Agassiz Beach Ridges landscape. Its proximity to other private and public prairies makes it a viable and diverse site, where many of Minnesota's rarest plants and animals are found.
What the Conservancy Has Done/Is Doing
Open prairies are essential for grassland birds to thrive. Therefore, it's important for the Conservancy to open up the prairie landscape. Periodic, prescribed fire, aspen girdling and brush mowing are some of the tools used to manage this land, making it a better habitat for these imperiled birds.
Native plant communities throughout the world are threatened by invasive species. Leafy spurge, an invasive plant found on this preserve, is extremely difficult to control. Its large root system burrows 20 feet down, making it resilient to spraying, and seeds can spring up 15 feet from the mother plant. The plant also contains a milky latex than can produce blisters and inflammation in humans, cattle and horses and may cause permanent blindness if rubbed into the eye.
To control it, land managers use fire - which plays a natural role in prairies, clearing brush and encouraging the growth of native plants - and special root-boring flea beetles.
An old gravel pit located on a newly acquired piece of land was reshaped and reseeded with native prairie seeds that were collected onsite. By restoring this area, grassland birds have more habitat, and invasive species will have a harder time getting a foothold.

| 10.2°C Belfast
Michael Laudrup has blasted the manner of his sacking by Swansea and has said he is taking legal advice over the dismissal.
The Dane was sacked on Tuesday following a poor run of form by Swansea, 12 months after leading the club to the first major trophy in their history.
The League Managers Association (LMA) is now writing to the club to ask for the reasons for his sacking.
On the day his temporary replacement, club stalwart Garry Monk, held his first press conference, Laudrup released a statement which read: "I am deeply disappointed to have been dismissed as manager of Swansea City.
"In particular, the manner in which it happened and the actions the club has taken since notifying me in the briefest of letters which gave no reasons why such hasty and final action was deemed necessary.
"I am, of course taking legal advice and the LMA have already written to the club asking for a proper explanation as to why I was summarily dismissed."
Laudrup also revealed his upset at being denied the chance to thank the players in person for their efforts under him.
He added: "The club has informed me that I cannot visit the training ground to say my farewells to the players so I do that now through this statement.
"The players have been fantastic and their contribution under the very professional guidance of my coaching staff has been absolutely fundamental to the club's recent successes. Three members of my staff have also been dismissed.
"Whilst league results have been disappointing of late, we are still 12th in the table and it is there for all to see the fine margins in the league this season in terms of points that separate 11 clubs.
"Although we have been unfortunate with injuries, I believe our league form would have improved and that we would have benefited from the forthcoming Europa League and FA Cup matches."
Swansea have picked up just six points from their last 10 matches and are two points above the relegation zone heading into this weekend's derby showdown with Cardiff.
The Swans, however, are through to the fifth round of the FA Cup, where they face Everton, and are also in the last 32 of the Europa League, with Italian side Napoli their next opponents.
Monk held his first training session on Wednesday and did his best to fend off some awkward questions from the press 24 hours later.
One of those related to defender Chico Flores, who was involved in a training ground bust-up with Monk last month.
The club have played down some of the more colourful accounts of the incident and Monk, a Swansea captain in all four divisions, insisted it would have no effect on his team selection.
"Chico will be involved in the squad, zero problems whatsoever," said Monk.
"We had a talk today. Things have been blown up and we have had a laugh about it. He is a good man."
The 34-year-old also attempted to play down the upheaval Laudrup's exit would have on the club between now and the end of the season.
"We're all aware of what has happened this week. It has been a busy period," said Monk.
"I know the club and the players, nothing here is new to me. We've lost players and managers in the past and we've dealt with that.
"That's industry we are in. We're used to those experiences.
"I was just told 'Can you be ready to prepare the team'. I don't know what happened with manager and chairman. This is my club and that's what I'll do."
Monk admitted the full-time job would be a dream role for him, even if it meant the end of his playing days.
"My ultimate aim would be to manage the club, (but) I am not a player-manager. If I am in. I might not be seeing things elsewhere.
"If I have played my last game as a player it would mean I have done well."
Former England manager Glenn Hoddle has been linked with Swansea since Laudrup's departure, however it has emerged he has no interest in joining the club.
According to zapsportz.com, the website founded by Hoddle last year, the 56-year-old "has neither sought nor applied for the Swansea post. And he has not been interviewed nor has he any plans to be interviewed for the job".
Hoddle has been out of football management since leaving Wolves in 2006, having previously held club positions at Swindon, Chelsea, Southampton and Tottenham.

Then put fins on and did 1000 of various drills, bursts, and fun things
Shoulder bugs me without even doing anything. Hand numb and aches, etc. Many appointments and bs to go before anything gets done. Neck injections appointment was cancelled (likely because my ins company decided to change my ID# for 2018). The appt was the 15th and they waited to mssg me this 10 minutes prior to closing today. All they needed was my new ins #. So I left them plenty of messages. Shoulder doc was waiting for neck shots results before doing anything. Stuff gets on hold, but at least I was able to swim, and had fun doing so
Had my first GI screening done on Wed - next appt in 10 yrs so that is good news.
Did about 90 minutes of wine yoga last night. Can,t recall exactly was was accomplished

EPICWe arrived there, four friends/ colleagues from Prague, Czech Republic and it was such a wonderful experience. Best concert of my life so far. Great atmosphere in a city where Achtung Baby was born. Returning there now after 9 years with big expectations.
11 June, 2010
Ich bin...Part 2On May 24th I appeared here as a nameless member, because I commented before completing my paid subscription. I just want to say again that this concert was an unforgettable experience. Now the new 360 DVD brings back all those joyous memories. Particularly "Moment Of Surrender" was such a soulful and moving finale. U2 dont have a choice but to lift me up! It was a beautiful night! And Bonos German was SWEET!
24 May, 2010
Ich bin ein BerlinerI´m very late to review this concert, but I registered as a new member yesterday. As an Austrian I was lucky to be able to see my favourite band in Berlin. Entering the stadium and seeing the gigantic "spaceship" for the first time was thrilling. U2 performed with great power from the very beginning and hearing the new material from NLOTH live was amazing. The band succeeded, as always, to connect their straightforward energy with a lot of atmosphere. There were many memorable highlights such as Larry´s drumming during "I´ll Go Crazy...". U2 really proved their good communication with their audience when some guys from the crowd were allowed to join them on stage during "Angel Of Harlem". When they played a very intimate version of "Stay" I could feel their strong connection to Berlin. Listening to "The Unforgettable Fire" and seeing all the shimmering lights created one of those moments that made me feel shivers. And I was also very moved by Bono´s performance of "Ultra Violet", he truly "sang his heart out". He also made an attempt to speak German and now I want to say something in official Latin: U2 MUSICA BONA EST!!! Thank you so much for all the beautiful moments your music has given me!!!
29 April, 2010
Better late than neverI've been meaning to review this gig for a while now and done nothing 'bout it 'til now. Firstly, those who have seen the pre show video footage, that was my 21y/o nephew - the tall Australian - talking about the gig - it is a big thanks from me to him that I was able to see this show. Secondly, it goes to show how far reaching U2 are - of the first 7 people to show up to camp out the night before where 2 Australians (myself and my nephew) to Canadians and 3 Dutch! Now I've seen U2 a few times in my life now and was fortunate to see them at Wembley Stadium the next month with my wife. Having said that, this gig is a stand-out of all the gigs I've been to, simply because of the whole experience. I was front row on Edge's B-Stage at the Vertigo gig in Brisbane in 2006, but that pales in comparison being front row in Berlin, the home of Achtung Baby, my favouraite (and now SPIN magazine's favourate) album of all time. The band was on fire, Edge is my hero and he played like I've never seen him play before, Bono's voice was true to form, Adam was always there and Larry was solid! I'm about to head back to Australia after living in the UK for 3 years and I'm hoping and praying that the decision to tour down-under gets the go-ahead for next year as I'd love to see this band perform again.
01 August, 2009
Thank youThank you for magnificent concert. We liked it so much that we decided to see you in Poland again. :-)We really look forward to it especially to "One". We hope we'll be able to see you in Praque one day. :-)
24 July, 2009
ThankyouThankyou for the great gig in Berlin last week. Unforgetable experience - I was the guy with the shades on in the inner circle :-) You 4 have played a massive part of my life for the past 25 years and have given me inspiration, love and many many smiles. True good freinds. Thankyou. Keep us rocking like you know how, Ian
24 July, 2009
Achtung Baby, Crazy, BerlinThanks U2!! This was my third concert, amazing. The Elevation and the Vertigo Tour were very special good but 360° thats crazy. The Show, the Stage, the light, the sound, the fans and specialy U2, Amazing. This was my best concert!!
24 July, 2009
StayI really believed that STAY would be played there because that song had to be played in the place it was born. For me it was an amazing experience to see you again in a concert. Great improvisation with the czech guys, great show from A to Z. I just realized 3 generations were gathered in the Stadium with grandparents, fathers and children enjoying your music. I found myself in a "beautiful day" enjoying an "unforgettable fire" of passion one day before "sunday bloody sunday"... Thanks U2 for that present...
23 July, 2009
Thanks U2!I traveled all the way from Denver, Colorado to catch this show in such a special city and it was worth every penny. Keep up the awesomeness lads!
22 July, 2009
Flew from Chicago to BerlinI have been a massive fan for 30 years or so, and i have never seen them in Europe, although I have seen U2 50 times or more...and I took my best friends sons, 16 years old, Alex and Lorenz, they have never seen U2....we ended up right behind the Czech boys who went up onstage...and we ALL three of us say exactly this....this was the greatest concert of all time...I could not have been more proud to 'show' U2 to these boys..and they could not have been in more aw, me too! And we 3 cannot wait to see U2 again and again! It was ALL perfect....thank you U2, we love you then, now and always! Jim-Chicago and Alex and Lorenz Linz, Austria
21 July, 2009
Best Show ever!!Thanks to Berlin and U2 for a perfect night, whet a show!! See you in London:) David Copenhagen, Denmark
21 July, 2009
UNBELIEVABLEThat's what Bono said 3 times before leaving the stage, I think he felt the special magic of this unbelievable night. I came from Rome for the concert and I was sure he was going to sing Stay and he did!!!!
21 July, 2009
FROM PORTUGAL TO BERLINMe and my friends Cristina e Fernando came from Portugal to see U2 at Berlin, and it was amazing, if I can I follow U2 to all countries. We hope that you go to Portugal in 2010. The concert was unforgettable, magnificent, take our breathe, we can not see the line on the horizon, our boots was so tight because we can not stop jump, it was a beautiful day in a city of blinding lights, and we move in a mysterious ways going crazy on a moment of surrender with or without you angel of harlem. THE ONLY ONE BEST BAND OF THE WORLD ARE U2. Paula Alves from Lisbon, Portugal
21 July, 2009
...Haha, thats me on the photo! Very funny ;)
20 July, 2009
CRAZY IN BERLINWHAT A EXPERIENCE ¡¡¡ Incredible Show, fantastic audience, unbeteable venue....¡¡¡ Spanish eyes in Berlin breathing deeply, enjoying every single moment of the best band ¡¡¡ Unforgettable ¡¡¡ Thanks for a wonderful night ¡¡¡ See you in Spain in 2010? I hope so. Potimarbella
20 July, 2009
AmazingThanks for the Berlin show! GREAT! PLEASE come to Germany again in 2010! The Crazy-Mix is WOW!!!!
20 July, 2009
U2 - Faraway, So CloseI've come from faraway (Australia, but I reside in London) to see the band, and I was so close. Thank you U2 for making it worth the effort of camping out for 30 hours. Higglight for me was Unforgettable Fire & COBL. Stay was beautiful, Edge has such a great touch on the acoustic guitar!
20 July, 2009
IN ! CRE ! DI ! BLE !!!Breathtaking Show that night on a monumental stage! Thanks so much for acoustic 'Stay' - it´s such a beautiful song. And for that great Party-Remix of 'I´ll go crazy', that really surprised me (and obviously the rest of the stadium, too). And, of course, 'Ultra Violet'! After 25 years of U2-records on my shelf and having seen every tour since 'The Joshua Tree' at least one time (most more often), I´d like to thank you for all those very special moments you gave to me throughout the years. As I do connect nearly all of your songs with special periods and moments, your music is for me the soundtrack of my life! Thx, and CU again, and again, and again...
20 July, 2009
Wunderbar !Another special concert in another special city ... I'm italian and I enjoy a lot of U2 live concerts around the world and everywhere the show was an unforgettable performance and a great soul experience. Oh Edge how many songs we wrote here ... see Larry Mullen right in front of you ... what's your name ? Thank you thank you (oh those 3 young chzech ...). I'll go crazy was a surprise, TUF a piece of history, Magnificent hit my soul. Wunderbar !
20 July, 2009
Please Stay!It's always a bit dangerous and unfair to anyone to expect the more-than-outstanding from a mere rock 'n' roll band, but you're not "a mere" band. If a stadium can have a heartbeat, though, the Olympic heartrate just zoomed away last Friday in passion and connectedness to your amazing presence on stage. I wasn't sure about the "Crazy" version you offered, and I felt a bit neglected in the area "behind" the stage, but I sure burnt alive in the Unforgettable Fire and absolutely want you, after periods in the preparation of the 360° tour when you hinted at the chance that you might not be going on the road for very much longer, to STAY (what a song, what electricity) on live stages almost forever!!
20 July, 2009
thank you so muchBerlin was amazing! What a night, I expected a lot but you gave me so much more. Thank you! Stay was a very special moment. The dance version of " Crazy tonight" was crazy again and lifted up the whole stadium, just amazing. I heared the song in Paris and there is was great, but in Berlin it was even better!! Looking forward to see you tonight and tomorrow in Amsterdam.
19 July, 2009
Stay in Berlin!Thanks U2 for a great night!!! it was absolutely spectacular! Waiting more than 12 hours and then getting into the first row were like magic! Love you! Andrea, Romania
19 July, 2009
can't wait for Zagrebit was amazing yesterday in Berlin...we really enjoyed being part of it! in the past we had always to travel to see Bono, Edge, Adam and Larry, but this year they are coming to our place directly...we are impatient to see them in Zagreb...hope it will be as good as yesterday...wow!!!
19 July, 2009
Angel Of Harlem - highlight of the showthis song was played so perfect because Czech u2 fans who played with U2 know the end of the song with snippets...(it is played a little different) so they cannot stop when Bono shows to stop... :)) so this was not only experiment as Bono said, this was a great moment of the show.
19 July, 2009
just unforgetableThank you guys for the fanstastic show yesterday in berlin. The last months wasn't really easy in my life but you give me yesterday a very special feeling. Thank you so much i will never forget and please please make soon a tour in Europe (maybe again in Zurich?) Kiss Lorena Lareo Zurich, Switzerland

19 July, 2009

How to remove mildew, algae from fence
If mildew and algae are covering your wooden fence, use these tips to clean your fence by hand.
1. If you have any plants near the fence, make sure you cover them to protect them against the cleaning supplies.
2. Create a cleaning solution. One option is to mix one part bleach with two parts water. Add about a teaspoon of soap for each gallon of water used.
3. Using a scrub brush, wash the stained areas of the fence. When you're done, rinse off the fence with clean water.
4. To prevent algae and mildew in the future, consider repainting the fence with a paint that prevents them from growing.

Jochen Sprickerhof from the Knowledge-Based Systems Group of University of Osnabrück (Germany) visited Willow Garage this summer to do an internship on 3D registration and mapping.
Assembling massive datasets from a large number of individual point clouds is an important part of mobile robotics research. This allows robots to see beyond their immediate surroundings, localize in both 2D and 3D, and share large-scale maps built by other robots. One of the challenges here is how to efficiently estimate and correct the pose error in the trajectory of the robot, without sacrificing accuracy. For example, correcting high-dimensional registration data graphs that represent a large building or a city can take a very long time.
During his internship, Jochen ported his registration framework called ELCH (Explicit Loop Closing Heuristic) into the Point Cloud Library framework. ELCH tries to correct collected sensor data by finding loops in the robot trajectory, estimating the pose error the robot accumulated while driving along the loop, using point cloud registration, and distributing the error over the complete robot pathway. Our hope is that using techniques like ELCH, we will be able to scale the type of environments mobile robots can operate in.
For more details, see Jochen's presentation below (download PDF) as well as the corresponding publication (PDF).

Tartan sophomore Cali Pearcy (24) scores against North High junior Marit Larson (33) during home action last season. The Titans won 3-0 Jan. 20. Little did they know, they'd be joining forces next season as the two teams consolidate into one team. (Linda Baumeister file photo)
To some folks the "State of Hockey" in School District 622 is in trouble
In what one might well call a drastic move, Tartan and North high schools' girls hockey teams will combine as one for the 2015-16 season.
150 years is a long time.
The "committee" has been meeting and plans are well underway for a big celebration to commemorate the 150th year of the founding of the Hamm's Brewing Company.
It was back in 1865 that founder Theodore Hamm began producing beer, utilizing water from Phalen Creek, which flowed through his brewery property at Minnehaha and Payne avenues.
Sarah Hendrickson
An event the kids won't soon forget
She looks like an ordinary 20-year-old. But looks don't count when you clamp on a pair of skis at the top of a 90-meter ski jump.
Sarah Hendrickson recently graced the slopes of the storied, 130-year-old St. Paul Ski Club at its Nordic site near Carver Lake in south Maplewood.
She was in town to head up a three-day, June 26-28 training camp. Some 40 kids, ages 8 to 16 from the throughout the Central Division of the United States Ski Association, were on hand to glean the knowledge of the world champion and 2014 U.S. Olympian.
In the two years that Tartan girls hockey coach Nick Fuerst has been at the helm, the Titans have gone from mediocre to very good.

People still ask, 'Who is Ruth?'
For quite a while, I have ended my columns with "Hey Ruth, you hang in there!"
I don't intend to stop, but now an explanation is once again in order.
The "Ruth" in question was Ruth Goethel. She was the wife of Arno Goethel, the former executive sports editor of the St. Paul Dispatch and Pioneer Press.
Back in the days when most everyone who skated or played hockey, it was on an outdoor pond or lake. Getting ice depended on "Mother Nature" to supply cold enough weather to freeze water.
Then came the flooding of outdoor rinks. Suddenly ice sheets popped up on every local playground as well as in many back yards.
— The 622 EDUCATION FOUNDATION will hold a fundraising 5K Family Fun Run/Walk to benefit students of School District
Problems with the lighting system at North Stadium came to a head this autumn.
On one occasion—the Sept. 5 girls soccer game between Mahtomedi and North High—the overhead lights failed to function adequately, and the contest was discontinued after just one half of play.
