Home prices rose in nearly all major U.S. cities in April from March, according to the latest S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices report.
"It has been a long time since we enjoyed such broad-based gains," David Blitzer, chairman of S&P Indices' index committee, says in that report. "While one month does not make a trend ... [the news] is a good sign."
According to the data:
-- Detroit was the only one of 20 major metropolitan areas to see home prices fall in April. They dropped 3.6 percent in the Motor City from the month before.
-- The largest increase for the month was San Francisco's 3.4 percent.
-- In Phoenix, where the housing sector was hit particularly hard when the real estate bubble burst, prices were up 8.6 percent from April 2011.
-- The indices' 10-city and 20-city composite indexes were both up 1.3 percent in April from March. But, both of those broad measures were still down from a year earlier — the 10-city composite by 2.2 percent and the 20-city composite by 1.9 percent. Bloomberg News notes, however, that the 20-city index's decline from a year earlier is the smallest such year-over-year drop since November 2010.
Reuters points out that the month-to-month increase in the broader measures of home prices is the third such gain in a row, "suggesting the recovery in the housing market is gaining traction."

According to Women'sEyeHealth.org, ⅔ of blindness and visual impairment occurs in women. Additionally, an estimated 75% of visual impairment is preventable or correctable with proper education and care. With the increased risks for women it's critical for women to know about the risks and prevention to effectively protect their eyes and vision.
There are a number of specific eye diseases, many of which cause vision impairment, that are more prevalent in women. Part of the reason for this is that women tend to live longer than men. These risks are exacerbated by often avoidable behavioral and environmental conditions such as smoking, poor diet and nutrition, a sedentary lifestyle and sun exposure to name a few.
Research shows that some of the statistics showing that women are at a higher risk of certain vision-threatening conditions depend on the living conditions and access to health care of the population being studied. Nevertheless, other eye conditions such as dry eye syndrome, autoimmune diseases related to the eyes (such as rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's Syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, and multiple sclerosis) and cataracts are inherently more prevalent in women than men. Furthermore, women are more at risk for diseases associated with age, such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), since they statistically live a few years longer than men.
Here are some facts about a few of the common eye diseases that women in particular should be aware of.
- Cataracts.
Cataracts are when the lens of the eye becomes clouded causing vision loss and eventually blindness if not treated. Nevertheless, treatment for the condition, which is usually a minor surgery, is very common and highly successful. An age-related condition, more than half of North Americans age 65 and older have at least one cataract. While longer life expectancy is a factor, women also have been found to be intrinsically more at risk for developing cataracts.
While it is likely that most people that live long enough will eventually develop a cataract, there are a few things that can increase your chances such as smoking, and possibly diet and sun exposure. If you have diabetes, maintaining proper blood sugar levels might play a role in prevention. Scheduling a yearly, comprehensive eye exam is the best way to catch and treat cataracts early to prevent vision loss.
- Dry Eye Disease
Dry eye disease is a condition in which the eye does not create enough lubricating tear film to keep the surface moist and comfortable. While it doesn't lead to blindness, dry eye can cause severe suffering and affect quality of life. It can also increase the chances of infection and impair visual acuity leading to decreased ability to read and drive, particularly at night. The condition is most common in middle aged and older adults, particularly women and is one of the leading causes of visits to the eye doctor.
Severe dry eye is sometimes caused by Sjögren's syndrome, which is a chronic, multi-organ autoimmune disorder that also results in dry mouth and often arthritis, which is much more common in women.
Dry eye disease is intrinsically 2-3 times more common in women than in men, which may be may be because of hormonal differences, and the use of birth control can result in increased dry eye as well.
There are a number of treatments available for dry eyes, including artificial tear solutions, ointments, anti-inflammatories and sometimes inserting tear duct plugs.
- Age-related Macular Degeneration and Glaucoma
For both of these vision threatening diseases, age is the greatest risk factor, making the risk higher for women who statistically live longer. Women are twice as likely to develop AMD as men. African Americans are at higher risk for glaucoma, making black women over the age of 60, one of the highest risk groups for the disease. Family history is also a strong risk factor.
The best way for women to keep their eyes and vision intact is to have a comprehensive eye exam every year and to take care of themselves by not smoking, wearing UV protective eyewear, maintaining proper nutrition and exercise. Because many of these diseases don't show symptoms until it is too late, early detection is essential to eye health.
Bonus Info: Pregnancy and Eyesight
Pregnancy can affect a woman's vision, though the changes are often temporary. Although it's definitely recommended for women with gestational diabetes to have diabetic retinopathy screenings, and it is generally safe to have a routine eye exam while you're expecting, you should know that your prescription may not be "guaranteed" as it is subject to change until about 6 weeks after the yet-to-be-born baby stops nursing.
Many women complain that their contact lenses feel uncomfortable during pregnancy. The eye contours can shift due to hormones and swelling, so the lens might not fit the same way. You may want to try a different type of contact, or switch to glasses for a few months.

Picture this: Your spouse or child has collapsed and isn't breathing. You call 911, and the paramedics rush in and take charge. But you are banished to another room while the medical people try to bring your loved one back to life.
It's about the most stressful scene imaginable. And it's what usually happens.
But now comes the most rigorous study so far on allowing family members to witness CPR — its impact on them, on the medical team, on the CPR itself. The study, in this week's New England Journal of Medicine, was done by a French group, but a U.S. collaborator thinks it sheds light on the long-running debate here.
The study, involving about 500 relatives of patients who got CPR, contains some surprises. Foremost is that watching the resuscitation attempt doesn't have lingering bad effects on relatives who choose to do it — it's actually beneficial for them.
Family members who did not witness CPR were 60 percent more likely to have symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder later. They also had more anxiety and depression.
Moreover, the resuscitation teams say they didn't experience more stress when relatives were present because relatives didn't interfere with the process. And their presence didn't affect things like the duration of CPR or survival rates. None of them sued, either — a prominent worry in the U.S.
Stephen Borron, a professor of emergency medicine at Texas Tech University and the sole American among the study's authors, thinks it will "raise the level of the conversation" in the U.S. on allowing family members to witness CPR. "It's an issue that's kind of simmered in the background for a long time," Borron tells Shots.
The idea was first proposed back in 1987 — although that proposal was about allowing relatives to watch in-hospital CPR, while the French study involved out-of-hospital resuscitation, usually in patients' homes.
Back in 2002, NEJM published another commentary that advocated giving family members the choice to be present.
Ellen Tsai, a Canadian pediatrician and bioethicist who wrote that piece, recounted a trial of such a policy in a Michigan hospital. Of those who watched, 94 percent later said they would want to do it again. She wrote:
"These procedures are not pleasant to watch. No matter how often people see blood, fluid, needles, defibrillation, intubation, endless alarms, frantic activity, and anxious physicians and nurses on television, watching the procedures on television is not the same as seeing them in person, especially when a loved one is at the center of the activity. Nevertheless, many family members have found that the benefits of being present outweigh the harm."
Borron strongly agrees. When relatives are excluded, they can be left with doubts. "Anytime you close the door on someone and say, 'Just trust me,' there's going to be some suspicion," Borron says.
Some of the benefit to family witnesses, he thinks, may come from a sense of closure.
"My gestalt," Borron says, "is that in a lot of situations where patients have cardiac arrest at home, family members feel they didn't do something they should have — didn't call quick enough or get them to the hospital quick enough, didn't give them their morning meds. There are a million things that go through people's minds."
Witnessing the CPR attempt, he adds, "gives them a sense that they've done their part and that nothing more might have been done to save their loved one."
Borron says he was "a little surprised" by the study's finding that caregivers' stress levels were not increased by having family members witness CPR. One reason might be that French medical personnel are less afraid of being sued.
"It's a sea change to open up resuscitations to patients' families," the Texas specialist says. "I don't think you can necessarily transfer this French study to the American situation. Some additional studies need to be done."
And in any case, Borron thinks there will be pushback from U.S. medical personnel. And that will take some time to sort out.
But some hospitals are moving in that direction. For the past year, the Mid America Heart Institute in Kansas City has been offering patients' relatives the option of being present during in-hospital CPR attempts.
"It gives them comfort and solace to know that their doctor spent 30 minutes trying to do everything they could to save their loved one," Paul Chan, a staff cardiologist there, tells Shots.

Junior Seau's family sues NFL
The family of Junior Seau has sued the NFL, claiming the former linebacker's suicide was the result of brain disease caused by violent hits he sustained while playing football.
The wrongful death lawsuit, filed Wednesday in California Superior Court in San Diego, blames the NFL for its ''acts or omissions'' that hid the dangers of repetitive blows to the head. It says Seau developed chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) from those hits, and accuses the NFL of deliberately ignoring and concealing evidence of the risks associated with traumatic brain injuries.
Seau died at age 43 of a self-inflicted gunshot in May. He was diagnosed with CTE, based on posthumous tests, earlier this month.
An Associated Press review in November found that more than 3,800 players have sued the NFL over head injuries in at least 175 cases as the concussion issue has gained attention in recent years. More than 100 of the concussion lawsuits have been brought together before US District Judge Anita B. Brody in Philadelphia.
''Our attorneys will review it and respond to the claims appropriately through the court,'' the NFL said in a statement Wednesday.
Helmet manufacturer Riddell Inc., also is being sued by the Seaus, who say Riddell was ''negligent in their design, testing, assembly, manufacture, marketing, and engineering of the helmets'' used by NFL players. The suit says the helmets were unreasonably dangerous and unsafe.
Seau was one of the best linebackers during his 20 seasons in the NFL. He retired in 2009.
''We were saddened to learn that Junior, a loving father and teammate, suffered from CTE,'' the family said in a statement released to the AP. ''While Junior always expected to have aches and pains from his playing days, none of us ever fathomed that he would suffer a debilitating brain disease that would cause him to leave us too soon.
''We know this lawsuit will not bring back Junior. But it will send a message that the NFL needs to care for its former players, acknowledge its decades of deception on the issue of head injuries and player safety, and make the game safer for future generations.''
Plaintiffs are listed as Gina Seau, Junior's ex-wife; Junior's children Tyler, Sydney, Jake and Hunter, and Bette Hoffman, trustee of Seau's estate.
The lawsuit accuses the league of glorifying the violence in pro football, and creating the impression that delivering big hits ''is a badge of courage which does not seriously threaten one's health.''
It singles out NFL Films and some of its videos for promoting the brutality of the game.
''In 1993's 'NFL Rocks,' Junior Seau offered his opinion on the measure of a punishing hit: `If I can feel some dizziness, I know that guy is feeling double (that),' " the suit says.
The NFL consistently has denied allegations similar to those in the lawsuit.
''The NFL, both directly and in partnership with the NIH, Centers for Disease Control and other leading organizations, is committed to supporting a wide range of independent medical and scientific research that will both address CTE and promote the long-term health and safety of athletes at all levels,'' the league told the AP after it was revealed Seau had CTE.
The lawsuit claims money was behind the NFL's actions.
''The NFL knew or suspected that any rule changes that sought to recognize that link (to brain disease) and the health risk to NFL players would impose an economic cost that would significantly and adversely change the profit margins enjoyed by the NFL and its teams,'' the Seaus said in the suit.
The National Institutes of Health, based in Bethesda, Md., studied three unidentified brains, one of which was Seau's, and said the findings on Seau were similar to autopsies of people ''with exposure to repetitive head injuries.''
''It was important to us to get to the bottom of this, the truth,'' Gina Seau told the AP then. ''And now that it has been conclusively determined from every expert that he had obviously had CTE, we just hope it is taken more seriously. You can't deny it exists, and it is hard to deny there is a link between head trauma and CTE. There's such strong evidence correlating head trauma and collisions and CTE.''
In the final years of his life, Seau went through wild behavior swings, according to Gina and to 23-year-old son, Tyler. There also were signs of irrationality, forgetfulness, insomnia and depression.
''He emotionally detached himself and would kind of 'go away' for a little bit,'' Tyler Seau said. ''And then the depression and things like that. It started to progressively get worse.''

Sunday's attack on a Sikh temple in Wisconsin, which left six people and the gunman dead, has for many of us opened a window on a religion, a culture and a people we know little about.
One thing we're learning is how remarkably kind and patient many faithful Sikhs seem to be. As Milwaukee's Journal Sentinel writes today, for Sikhs "anger is not just futile, it's a sin."
On Morning Edition, one long-time member of the Sikh community in Oak Creek, Wis., where Sunday's attack happened, spoke in ways that underscore that belief. Swaranjit Arora expressed sorrow, to be sure, but no bitterness toward the country he now calls home or its people.
And at the end of his conversation with NPR's Steve Inskeep, Arora's thoughts turned to one of Sunday's heroes — Oak Creek Police Department Lt. Brian Murphy. It was Murphy who was the first officer on the scene. It was Murphy who police say was shot eight to nine times by Wade Michael Page, the man who has been identified as the gunman.
The officer is fighting for his life at a Milwaukee hospital. In speaking about the lieutenant, Arora's voice seemed to crack with emotion:
"Our heart goes out to Brian Murphy ... who really came and put his own life on the spot and helped our community. If he ... was not there we ... could have 30 dead."
There's more about Murphy in today's Journal Sentinel. According to Oak Creek Police Chief John Edwards, when he visited Murphy on Monday night the lieutenant tried to mouth one word: "Sorry."
Also today, Milwaukee's TMJ4-TV reports about the one woman who was killed Sunday, 41-year-old Paramjit Kaur. According to her son, Kamal Saini, "she was shot in the back. ... She didn't have a chance. They said she was dead on the spot."
And CNN has posted its video report on what friends and relatives of those killed are saying about their loved ones.
Meanwhile, The Associated Press says that:
"Page's [ex-]girlfriend, 31-year-old nursing student Misty Cook, faces legal trouble herself. She was arrested on a tentative charge of being a felon in possession of a firearm, South Milwaukee police said Tuesday. There was no immediate indication that her arrest was linked to Sunday's shooting, and police refused to release additional information."

Battle of the Sexes: The 'Male Penalty' in Car Insurance
Sugar and spice and the price is nice! Women pay less, on average, for car insurance than men, but by how much?
In all but six states nationwide, it is legal to incorporate gender into automotive insurance rate pricing. Defenders of these policies will argue that this is for good reason. According to the Facts and Statistics: Highway Safety report by the Insurance Information Institute, male drivers are involved in fatal accidents at a rate that is 1.5 times the national average and nearly 3 times the rate of women. However, detractors will argue that these risks are not individualized, but drawn from generalizations, which renders them unfair.
Regardless of the fairness of this policy, men pay more than women for car insurance in nearly all states in the country. To find the best car insurance so that this penalty doesn't break the bank, here is the status of gendered pricing across the nation according to Insurify.
How Much More Do Men Pay?
As a result of this increased risk in insuring male drivers, providers charge men rates that are an average of 13 percent more expensive than policies that are for otherwise identical female drivers. However, with certain providers, the figure can average as high as 63 percent. Quote discrepancies that extreme quickly amount to a substantial financial burden on male drivers, which is why regular auto insurance quotes comparison is vital in helping drivers save money on coverage.
States Without a "Blue" Tax
Fairness in individual quote pricing across men and women isn't solely a grassroots cause. In fact, six state legislatures—those in California, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Montana, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania—outlawed the use of gender as a factor in determining auto insurance rates. While insurers in these states can no longer assume that male drivers will be costlier to insure, they are still covering the same statewide risk pool as before. As a result, while men in these states saw their costs go down, women—especially young women—received an increase in the price of their insurance.
State by State: How Much More do Men Pay than Women on Average?
While American men pay an average of 13 percent more than women for premiums, there is a wide range in this gender gap between states.
The states on the low end of the spectrum—Michigan, Florida, and West Virginia—have close to no gender gap whatsoever across insurance companies' rates. That being said, despite its status as already having the smallest gender gap nationwide, the state government just banned the use of non-driving factors in determining Michigan car insurance prices in a bipartisan reform deal. Once the changes go into effect in July 2020, the Great Lake State will join the six others that currently disallow gendered quoting.
On the high end of the spectrum, male drivers in South Carolina can expect to pay an average of 19 percent more than otherwise identical female motorists, though this disparity can be as high as 33 percent for some insurers.
How do the Major Players Stack Up?
Interestingly, all but one of the five largest insurance providers exceeds the national average in terms of gendered pricing gaps. State Farm Insurance, the only company with a smaller-than-average male penalty, is also the cheapest of the major insurers in 28 states—more than the next two largest providers combined. However, a male driver with both a clean record and a premium from Progressive Insurance or Allstate Insurance could opt for user-based insurance to avoid some or all of this gender gap. By agreeing to install a telematics system in their car to monitor day-to-day driving patterns including the time the vehicle is in use, speed, and driving behavior, motorists can have the cost of their premium based on their personal driving risk and not on their gender.
Which Insurers Practice Equality of the Sexes?
All hope is not lost for male drivers looking for non-gendered car insurance premiums. At the moment, 32 separate auto insurers impose no penalty on men in comparison to women with the same driving record. Many are state-based as opposed to nationwide, but with 32 of them, there is a decent chance that at least one will write policies in most parts of the country.
Don't Forget to Compare!
It is important to keep in mind that the statistics relayed in this report are based upon sample profiles and that quoting may vary for certain individuals. Not only that, but the company with the smallest gender gap still may not be the most affordable option for male drivers. The only way to truly find the best deal is to compare car insurance quotes across multiple providers. Luckily, there are many auto insurance comparison services that will do the work of researching them on shoppers' behalf.
To determine which auto insurance companies are the most affordable deal for car owners, the data science team at Insurify explored quoting information from their database of over 1.6 million auto insurance applications as well as from public filings. The quotes displayed here are based on aggregations of sample rates for four driver profiles that included varied gender, age, driving history, credit, marital status, prior insurance, higher education, employment, and military service.

Meanwhile, yesterday skinhead clothiers Fred Perry announced a "collabo" with the Tour de France leader (or at least he was the Tour de France leader as of yesterday, I'm not saying whether or not he's still leading it today since that would be a spoiler):
Sure, Bradley Wiggins may have hair (and pretty funny-looking hair at that), but he does like to overturn tables and say "cunt" a lot, and this new venture is sure to put the "labia" in "collaboration:"
We're excited to announce that the first pieces from the Bradley Wiggins X Fred Perry Collaboration are available online and in selected Authentic shops as of today. The launch marks the start of a 6 season collaboration with the Olympic cyclist and mod enthusiast, who also happens to be the current Tour de France leader - go Wiggo!
I was particularly intrigued by the "Bradley stripe:"
The unique slim fit cotton pique shirt is finished with 'GB tape' around the neckline, retro metal zips, single zipped pocket to the rear hem and an especially designed 'Bradley stripe' around the tip of the sleeves.
Boldly, Wiggins seems to have taken credit for designing the UCI World Champion stripes and then renamed them after himself, which is just the sort of audacity you need to become a Tour de France winner-cum-fashion designer. (Assuming Bradley Wiggins hasn't crashed out of the Tour de France after colliding with a spectator dressed as a gigantic vagina, I'm not saying whether he did or he didn't, because that would be a spoiler.) Anyway, just to recap, here are the new terms for the sporting insignias and accolades Bradley Wiggins has retroactively designed:
Mostly because there's a tangential mention of bicycles and Portland:
The beat-up Raleigh, with derailleurs missing teeth, causes me to lurch when I pedal, but it is the best way to find courts. I typically put my sneakers, ball and water bottle into a backpack, strap on a helmet and head in a general direction.
Biking in New York is an adjustment from Portland, Ore., where I went to college. In Portland, bike lanes are plentiful and drivers almost always expect bicyclists to be nearby. In New York, there are more obstacles on the streets than in a game of Mario Kart. I've had to dodge opening car doors, gushing fire hydrants, texting pedestrians and bikers going the wrong way on one-way streets like vehicular spawning salmon.
Before you even make it to the courts, it's as if you have been fouled a thousand times.
I actually enjoyed the article, partially because I know nothing about basketball and it was an interesting perspective, and partially because as someone who knows nothing about basketball the associated jargon sounds incredibly dirty to me:
In Brooklyn, I check a map, look for green spots, and within half an hour I am sweaty and shooting.
My street vernacular is a little rusty, but as far as I can tell this means he was looking for places to buy marijuana and ended up engaged in anonymous sex. And I'm not even going to touch this one:
I channeled my inner Kevin Garnett and got right up into Butters with my body.
I'm sure if you're a basketball fan that doesn't even register, but after reading that I felt like taking a shower. It's almost as bad as this:
A reader sent me this because there's a picture of
From what I can tell, "Hunter's Plan" sounds like it might involve some city-slickers going on a rafting trip and then having a graphic encounter with some hillbillies.
And now, I'm pleased to present you with a quiz. As always, study the item, think, and click on your answer. If you're right you'll be spoiled in a good way, and if you're wrong you may or may not see a spoiler.
Thanks very much for reading, ride safe, and if your ride makes you burn and drool, you should probably put a saddle on your bike.

Mitt Romney may have given his campaign something of a reset with his performance in the first debate against President Obama.
He appeared more comfortable on stage than the incumbent, and was able at least to lay the groundwork for a message of bipartisanship that could appeal to remaining undecided voters.
Of course, it's not clear yet whether the debate will create enough momentum to offer Romney an advantage heading into the next debate, let alone through Election Day. Perhaps some of the inevitable post-debate fact checking will challenge Romney's credence on certain points.
But it's notable that Obama failed to do much of that himself, launching far fewer attacks during the debate than his aggressive campaign advertising strategy suggested he might.
Here's a quick review of five takeaways from the first debate in Denver:
Obama Looked Tired And Sounded Defensive
Obama's advisers noted before the debate that the president was having a hard time finding much unbroken debate practice time, and much of what he did have was devoted to boiling down his positions to fit the time limits. All of this showed.
Romney looked straight at his opponent, often wearing a confident Mona Lisa grin. Obama looked down at his notes or over at the moderator, Jim Lehrer of PBS, only occasionally looking directly into the camera.
Aside from his body language, some of Obama's answers came across as wonky. Both men offered laundry lists of their ideas, but Obama failed to craft a compelling case for his own record or second-term agenda, instead repeating complaints that he had inherited a mess.
What's more, he failed to go after Romney aggressively. There was no mention of Bain Capital or Romney's dismissive videotaped comments about the "47 percent" of Americans who are dependent on government.
Only in the last 20 minutes of the 90-minute debate did Obama land much of a blow, complaining that Romney was keeping the specifics about his tax plans and his approaches to health care and banking regulation too much a secret.
Romney Grasped The Mantle Of Bipartisanship
Romney said he didn't want to lay out anything other than broad principles during the campaign, because he found out as Massachusetts governor that a "my way or the highway" approach doesn't win over legislators.
Even before Lehrer had made "partisan gridlock" the subject of his final question, Romney stressed the importance of bipartisanship. He said that something as important as the federal health care law should have been passed on a bipartisan basis (it received essentially no GOP support) and paid homage to the working relationship of Republican President Ronald Reagan and Democratic House Speaker Tip O'Neill in the 1980s.
"I had the great experience — it didn't seem like it at the time — of being elected in a state where my legislature was 87 percent Democrat," Romney said, "and that meant I figured out from day one I had to get along and I had to work across the aisle to get anything done."
Given consistent Republican opposition to Obama in Congress — some have called it obstructionism — no doubt Democrats will question the sincerity of Romney's embrace of bipartisanship. But it's a message that could be welcomed by voters, particularly centrist independents.
You're A Drinking Game Winner If You're Middle Class
Both candidates were at pains to pay tribute to members of the middle class, again and again. Each referred to specific members of the middle class they had met along the campaign trail, who had gone back to school or were now out of work. Each insisted his plan would do more to help such people out and create middle-class jobs.
Obama argued that Romney's plans to cut taxes and increase military spending would necessarily cause the deficit to balloon or "burden" the middle class, because there would not be sufficient savings available to offset their cost by ending deductions or closing loopholes.
Romney insisted that his tax-cut plan would impose no such hardship. "I will not, under any circumstances, raise taxes on middle-income families," he said.
When Candidates Have The Microphone, They'll Keep Talking
Romney sought to refute a study Obama had cited to show his tax package would hurt the middle class was wrong: "There are six other studies that looked at the study you describe and say it's completely wrong," Romney said.
Many of the candidate's responses were like that: Sometimes arcane, often straying from the original question that Lehrer had asked. At one point, Romney used an education question to repeat a charge that Obama had squandered billions on unsuccessful green-energy programs.
Nearly all politicians use debate questions merely as jumping-off points, concerning themselves with highlighting policies they deem most important. Both men did that Wednesday, ignoring Lehrer's frequent invitations to confront or question their opponent directly, in favor of rattling off other arguments of their own.
Partly as a result, the debate's intended format, of 15-minute segments each covering six different topics, was broken almost immediately, leaving only three minutes for the final segment.
Lehrer struggled unsuccessfully to cut off the two candidates and redirect them to the supposed topic at hand. A stammering Twitter handle called @SilentJimLehrer went up during the debate, quickly attracting thousands of followers.
Democrats Will Want To Retool For Future Debates
For all his oratorical gifts, Obama has sometimes struggled in debates. He was often out-mastered during the long series of debates during the Democratic primary season in 2008 and hasn't had much practice since then — except for his debates against Sen. John McCain in 2008.
Republicans, meanwhile, have been nearly salivating for months at the prospect of the vice presidential debate, which takes place on Oct. 11. They believe Romney's running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, has the intellectual and rhetorical firepower to wipe the floor with Vice President Joe Biden.
That may prove to be wishful thinking. Ryan has put many of his own ideas on ice while serving as the loyal No. 2, while Biden is deeply versed in both domestic and foreign policy.
But Obama's lackluster performance — coupled with Biden's remark Tuesday that "the middle class ...has been buried the last four years" — will leave GOP partisans giddy with anticipation of next Thursday's debate.

GHS is a new global classification system for chemicals. It is used to communicate hazards on product labels and safety data sheets (SDS, formerly known in some countries/regions as the material safety data sheet [MSDS]). It has been developed through the United Nations, and applies to products used in many countries and industries.
Is this only an Ecolab initiative?
No. Many countries around the world are incorporating GHS into their national regulations; therefore, making implementation required for the chemical industry. The timelines for GHS implementation are generally dictated by individual countries as they adopt GHS. Ecolab will be rolling out the scheme across the world as each country finalizes their regulatory guidelines. While the many changes may be confusing initially, this will result in the same pictograms, labels and SDSs formats being used globally, facilitating trade as well as protecting chemical users and the environment.
What do the pictograms mean?
Pictograms are graphical representations of the type of hazard that a chemical product is classified as. There are a total of 9 pictograms prescribed by GHS.
What is a Signal Word?
There are two signal words in the GHS system – Danger and Warning. Signal words are used to communicate the level of hazard on both the label and SDS. If the hazard of the product is relatively low, then no signal word is used.
What are Hazard Statements and Precautionary Statements?
GHS classifications have specific hazard and precautionary statements associated with them that can be found on both the label and SDS. There is a single harmonized hazard statement that describes each hazard associated with a product (e.g., Causes eye irritation.). Each hazard also has precautionary statements which supplement hazard information (e.g., Store in a well-vented place).
Does this mean Ecolab products are changing?
No. The products are NOT changing. Only the hazard classification system has changed, hence all products will be assessed to the new criteria and hazard classes, resulting in updated SDS and labels.
What has Ecolab done to prepare for GHS?
Ecolab has taken several steps to be proactive as GHS is adopted by countries around the world. These steps range from monitoring adoption specifics and timelines as countries implement GHS, thoroughly evaluating our product portfolio in light of GHS, to ensuring the right people and systems are in place to meet these challenges. All these efforts translate into Ecolab continuing to deliver first class products and services to our customers in the new regulatory world of GHS.

Views in PostgreSQL are implemented using the rule system. In fact, there is essentially no difference between:
CREATE VIEW myview AS SELECT * FROM mytab;
compared against the two commands:
CREATE TABLE myview (same column list as mytab
CREATE RULE "_RETURN" AS ON SELECT TO myview DO INSTEAD
SELECT * FROM mytab;
because this is exactly what the CREATE VIEW
command does internally. This has some side effects. One of them is that the information about a view in the PostgreSQL system catalogs is exactly the same as it is for a table. So for the parser, there is absolutely no difference between a table and a view. They are the same thing: relations.
Rules WorkRules ON SELECT
are applied to all queries as the last step, even if the command given is an INSERT
or DELETE
. And they have different semantics from rules on the other command types in that they modify the query tree in place instead of creating a new one. So SELECT
rules are described first.
Currently, there can be only one action in an ON SELECT
rule, and it must be an unconditional SELECT
action that is INSTEAD
. This restriction was required to make rules safe enough to open them for ordinary users, and it restricts ON SELECT
rules to act like views.
The examples for this chapter are two join views that do some calculations and some more views using them in turn. One of the two first views is customized later by adding rules for INSERT
, and DELETE
operations so that the final result will be a view that behaves like a real table with some magic functionality. This is not such a simple example to start from and this makes things harder to get into. But it's better to have one example that covers all the points discussed step by step rather than having many different ones that might mix up in mind.
The real tables we need in the first two rule system descriptions are these:
CREATE TABLE shoe_data ( shoename text, -- primary key sh_avail integer, -- available number of pairs slcolor text, -- preferred shoelace color slminlen real, -- minimum shoelace length slmaxlen real, -- maximum shoelace length slunit text -- length unit ); CREATE TABLE shoelace_data ( sl_name text, -- primary key sl_avail integer, -- available number of pairs sl_color text, -- shoelace color sl_len real, -- shoelace length sl_unit text -- length unit ); CREATE TABLE unit ( un_name text, -- primary key un_fact real -- factor to transform to cm );
As you can see, they represent shoe-store data.
The views are created as:
CREATE VIEW shoe AS SELECT sh.shoename, sh.sh_avail, sh.slcolor, sh.slminlen, sh.slminlen * un.un_fact AS slminlen_cm, sh.slmaxlen, sh.slmaxlen * un.un_fact AS slmaxlen_cm, sh.slunit FROM shoe_data sh, unit un WHERE sh.slunit = un.un_name; CREATE VIEW shoelace AS SELECT s.sl_name, s.sl_avail, s.sl_color, s.sl_len, s.sl_unit, s.sl_len * u.un_fact AS sl_len_cm FROM shoelace_data s, unit u WHERE s.sl_unit = u.un_name; CREATE VIEW shoe_ready AS SELECT rsh.shoename, rsh.sh_avail, rsl.sl_name, rsl.sl_avail, least(rsh.sh_avail, rsl.sl_avail) AS total_avail FROM shoe rsh, shoelace rsl WHERE rsl.sl_color = rsh.slcolor AND rsl.sl_len_cm >= rsh.slminlen_cm AND rsl.sl_len_cm <= rsh.slmaxlen_cm;
The CREATE VIEW
command for the shoelace
view (which is the simplest one we have) will create a relation shoelace
and an entry in pg_rewrite
that tells that there is a rewrite rule that must be applied whenever the relation shoelace
is referenced in a query's range table. The rule has no rule qualification (discussed later, with the non-SELECT
rules, since SELECT
rules currently cannot have them) and it is INSTEAD
. Note that rule qualifications are not the same as query qualifications. The action of our rule has a query qualification. The action of the rule is one query tree that is a copy of the SELECT
statement in the view creation command.
The two extra range table entries for NEW
and OLD
that you can see in the pg_rewrite
entry aren't of interest for SELECT
Now we populate unit
, shoe_data
and shoelace_data
and run a simple query on a view:
INSERT INTO unit VALUES ('cm', 1.0); INSERT INTO unit VALUES ('m', 100.0); INSERT INTO unit VALUES ('inch', 2.54); INSERT INTO shoe_data VALUES ('sh1', 2, 'black', 70.0, 90.0, 'cm'); INSERT INTO shoe_data VALUES ('sh2', 0, 'black', 30.0, 40.0, 'inch'); INSERT INTO shoe_data VALUES ('sh3', 4, 'brown', 50.0, 65.0, 'cm'); INSERT INTO shoe_data VALUES ('sh4', 3, 'brown', 40.0, 50.0, 'inch'); INSERT INTO shoelace_data VALUES ('sl1', 5, 'black', 80.0, 'cm'); INSERT INTO shoelace_data VALUES ('sl2', 6, 'black', 100.0, 'cm'); INSERT INTO shoelace_data VALUES ('sl3', 0, 'black', 35.0 , 'inch'); INSERT INTO shoelace_data VALUES ('sl4', 8, 'black', 40.0 , 'inch'); INSERT INTO shoelace_data VALUES ('sl5', 4, 'brown', 1.0 , 'm'); INSERT INTO shoelace_data VALUES ('sl6', 0, 'brown', 0.9 , 'm'); INSERT INTO shoelace_data VALUES ('sl7', 7, 'brown', 60 , 'cm'); INSERT INTO shoelace_data VALUES ('sl8', 1, 'brown', 40 , 'inch'); SELECT * FROM shoelace; sl_name | sl_avail | sl_color | sl_len | sl_unit | sl_len_cm -----------+----------+----------+--------+---------+----------- sl1 | 5 | black | 80 | cm | 80 sl2 | 6 | black | 100 | cm | 100 sl7 | 7 | brown | 60 | cm | 60 sl3 | 0 | black | 35 | inch | 88.9 sl4 | 8 | black | 40 | inch | 101.6 sl8 | 1 | brown | 40 | inch | 101.6 sl5 | 4 | brown | 1 | m | 100 sl6 | 0 | brown | 0.9 | m | 90 (8 rows)
This is the simplest SELECT
you can do on our views, so we take this opportunity to explain the basics of view rules. The SELECT * FROM shoelace
was interpreted by the parser and produced the query tree:
SELECT shoelace.sl_name, shoelace.sl_avail, shoelace.sl_color, shoelace.sl_len, shoelace.sl_unit, shoelace.sl_len_cm FROM shoelace shoelace;
and this is given to the rule system. The rule system walks through the range table and checks if there are rules for any relation. When processing the range table entry for shoelace
(the only one up to now) it finds the _RETURN
rule with the query tree:
SELECT s.sl_name, s.sl_avail, s.sl_color, s.sl_len, s.sl_unit, s.sl_len * u.un_fact AS sl_len_cm FROM shoelace old, shoelace new, shoelace_data s, unit u WHERE s.sl_unit = u.un_name;
To expand the view, the rewriter simply creates a subquery range-table entry containing the rule's action query tree, and substitutes this range table entry for the original one that referenced the view. The resulting rewritten query tree is almost the same as if you had typed:
SELECT shoelace.sl_name, shoelace.sl_avail, shoelace.sl_color, shoelace.sl_len, shoelace.sl_unit, shoelace.sl_len_cm FROM (SELECT s.sl_name, s.sl_avail, s.sl_color, s.sl_len, s.sl_unit, s.sl_len * u.un_fact AS sl_len_cm FROM shoelace_data s, unit u WHERE s.sl_unit = u.un_name) shoelace;
There is one difference however: the subquery's range table has two extra entries shoelace old
and shoelace new
. These entries don't participate directly in the query, since they aren't referenced by the subquery's join tree or target list. The rewriter uses them to store the access privilege check information that was originally present in the range-table entry that referenced the view. In this way, the executor will still check that the user has proper privileges to access the view, even though there's no direct use of the view in the rewritten query.
That was the first rule applied. The rule system will continue checking the remaining range-table entries in the top query (in this example there are no more), and it will recursively check the range-table entries in the added subquery to see if any of them reference views. (But it won't expand old
or new
— otherwise we'd have infinite recursion!) In this example, there are no rewrite rules for shoelace_data
or unit
, so rewriting is complete and the above is the final result given to the planner.
Now we want to write a query that finds out for which shoes currently in the store we have the matching shoelaces (color and length) and where the total number of exactly matching pairs is greater than or equal to two.
SELECT * FROM shoe_ready WHERE total_avail >= 2; shoename | sh_avail | sl_name | sl_avail | total_avail ----------+----------+---------+----------+------------- sh1 | 2 | sl1 | 5 | 2 sh3 | 4 | sl7 | 7 | 4 (2 rows)
The output of the parser this time is the query tree:
SELECT shoe_ready.shoename, shoe_ready.sh_avail, shoe_ready.sl_name, shoe_ready.sl_avail, shoe_ready.total_avail FROM shoe_ready shoe_ready WHERE shoe_ready.total_avail >= 2;
The first rule applied will be the one for the shoe_ready
view and it results in the query tree:
SELECT shoe_ready.shoename, shoe_ready.sh_avail, shoe_ready.sl_name, shoe_ready.sl_avail, shoe_ready.total_avail FROM (SELECT rsh.shoename, rsh.sh_avail, rsl.sl_name, rsl.sl_avail, least(rsh.sh_avail, rsl.sl_avail) AS total_avail FROM shoe rsh, shoelace rsl WHERE rsl.sl_color = rsh.slcolor AND rsl.sl_len_cm >= rsh.slminlen_cm AND rsl.sl_len_cm <= rsh.slmaxlen_cm) shoe_ready WHERE shoe_ready.total_avail >= 2;
Similarly, the rules for shoe
and shoelace
are substituted into the range table of the subquery, leading to a three-level final query tree:
SELECT shoe_ready.shoename, shoe_ready.sh_avail, shoe_ready.sl_name, shoe_ready.sl_avail, shoe_ready.total_avail FROM (SELECT rsh.shoename, rsh.sh_avail, rsl.sl_name, rsl.sl_avail, least(rsh.sh_avail, rsl.sl_avail) AS total_avail FROM (SELECT sh.shoename, sh.sh_avail, sh.slcolor, sh.slminlen, sh.slminlen * un.un_fact AS slminlen_cm, sh.slmaxlen, sh.slmaxlen * un.un_fact AS slmaxlen_cm, sh.slunit FROM shoe_data sh, unit un WHERE sh.slunit = un.un_name) rsh, (SELECT s.sl_name, s.sl_avail, s.sl_color, s.sl_len, s.sl_unit, s.sl_len * u.un_fact AS sl_len_cm FROM shoelace_data s, unit u WHERE s.sl_unit = u.un_name) rsl WHERE rsl.sl_color = rsh.slcolor AND rsl.sl_len_cm >= rsh.slminlen_cm AND rsl.sl_len_cm <= rsh.slmaxlen_cm) shoe_ready WHERE shoe_ready.total_avail > 2;
This might look inefficient, but the planner will collapse this into a single-level query tree by "pulling up" the subqueries, and then it will plan the joins just as if we'd written them out manually. So collapsing the query tree is an optimization that the rewrite system doesn't have to concern itself with.
StatementsTwo details of the query tree aren't touched in the description of view rules above. These are the command type and the result relation. In fact, the command type is not needed by view rules, but the result relation may affect the way in which the query rewriter works, because special care needs to be taken if the result relation is a view.
There are only a few differences between a query tree for a SELECT
and one for any other command. Obviously, they have a different command type and for a command other than a SELECT
, the result relation points to the range-table entry where the result should go. Everything else is absolutely the same. So having two tables t1
and t2
with columns a
and b
, the query trees for the two statements:
SELECT t2.b FROM t1, t2 WHERE t1.a = t2.a; UPDATE t1 SET b = t2.b FROM t2 WHERE t1.a = t2.a;
are nearly identical. In particular:
The range tables contain entries for the tables t1
and t2
The target lists contain one variable that points to column b
of the range table entry for table t2
The qualification expressions compare the columns a
of both range-table entries for equality.
The join trees show a simple join between t1
and t2
The consequence is, that both query trees result in similar execution plans: They are both joins over the two tables. For the UPDATE
the missing columns from t1
are added to the target list by the planner and the final query tree will read as:
UPDATE t1 SET a = t1.a, b = t2.b FROM t2 WHERE t1.a = t2.a;
and thus the executor run over the join will produce exactly the same result set as:
SELECT t1.a, t2.b FROM t1, t2 WHERE t1.a = t2.a;
But there is a little problem in UPDATE
: the part of the executor plan that does the join does not care what the results from the join are meant for. It just produces a result set of rows. The fact that one is a SELECT
command and the other is an UPDATE
is handled higher up in the executor, where it knows that this is an UPDATE
, and it knows that this result should go into table t1
. But which of the rows that are there has to be replaced by the new row?
To resolve this problem, another entry is added to the target list in UPDATE
(and also in DELETE
) statements: the current tuple ID (CTID). This is a system column containing the file block number and position in the block for the row. Knowing the table, the CTID can be used to retrieve the original row of t1
to be updated. After adding the CTID to the target list, the query actually looks like:
SELECT t1.a, t2.b, t1.ctid FROM t1, t2 WHERE t1.a = t2.a;
Now another detail of PostgreSQL enters the stage. Old table rows aren't overwritten, and this is why ROLLBACK
is fast. In an UPDATE
, the new result row is inserted into the table (after stripping the CTID) and in the row header of the old row, which the CTID pointed to, the cmax
and xmax
entries are set to the current command counter and current transaction ID. Thus the old row is hidden, and after the transaction commits the vacuum cleaner can eventually remove the dead row.
Knowing all that, we can simply apply view rules in absolutely the same way to any command. There is no difference.
The above demonstrates how the rule system incorporates view definitions into the original query tree. In the second example, a simple SELECT
from one view created a final query tree that is a join of 4 tables (unit
was used twice with different names).
The benefit of implementing views with the rule system is that the planner has all the information about which tables have to be scanned plus the relationships between these tables plus the restrictive qualifications from the views plus the qualifications from the original query in one single query tree. And this is still the situation when the original query is already a join over views. The planner has to decide which is the best path to execute the query, and the more information the planner has, the better this decision can be. And the rule system as implemented in PostgreSQL ensures that this is all information available about the query up to that point.
What happens if a view is named as the target relation for an INSERT
, or DELETE
? Doing the substitutions described above would give a query tree in which the result relation points at a subquery range-table entry, which will not work. There are several ways in which PostgreSQL can support the appearance of updating a view, however.
If the subquery selects from a single base relation and is simple enough, the rewriter can automatically replace the subquery with the underlying base relation so that the INSERT
, or DELETE
is applied to the base relation in the appropriate way. Views that are "simple enough" for this are called automatically updatable. For detailed information on the kinds of view that can be automatically updated, see CREATE VIEW.
Alternatively, the operation may be handled by a user-provided INSTEAD OF
trigger on the view. Rewriting works slightly differently in this case. For INSERT
, the rewriter does nothing at all with the view, leaving it as the result relation for the query. For UPDATE
and DELETE
, it's still necessary to expand the view query to produce the "old" rows that the command will attempt to update or delete. So the view is expanded as normal, but another unexpanded range-table entry is added to the query to represent the view in its capacity as the result relation.
The problem that now arises is how to identify the rows to be updated in the view. Recall that when the result relation is a table, a special CTID entry is added to the target list to identify the physical locations of the rows to be updated. This does not work if the result relation is a view, because a view does not have any CTID, since its rows do not have actual physical locations. Instead, for an UPDATE
or DELETE
operation, a special wholerow
entry is added to the target list, which expands to include all columns from the view. The executor uses this value to supply the "old" row to the INSTEAD OF
trigger. It is up to the trigger to work out what to update based on the old and new row values.
Another possibility is for the user to define INSTEAD
rules that specify substitute actions for INSERT
, and DELETE
commands on a view. These rules will rewrite the command, typically into a command that updates one or more tables, rather than views. That is the topic of Section 40.4.
Note that rules are evaluated first, rewriting the original query before it is planned and executed. Therefore, if a view has INSTEAD OF
triggers as well as rules on INSERT
, or DELETE
, then the rules will be evaluated first, and depending on the result, the triggers may not be used at all.
Automatic rewriting of an INSERT
, or DELETE
query on a simple view is always tried last. Therefore, if a view has rules or triggers, they will override the default behavior of automatically updatable views.
If there are no INSTEAD
rules or INSTEAD OF
triggers for the view, and the rewriter cannot automatically rewrite the query as an update on the underlying base relation, an error will be thrown because the executor cannot update a view as such.

Dental Radiography
A radiograph (sometimes called an x-ray) is a type of photograph that reveals the body's bones and internal organs. The procedure for obtaining a radiograph is called radiography. Dental radiography involves obtaining x-ray images of the mouth, teeth, and jaws. Radiography is painless, safe, and completely noninvasive.

Glucocorticoids (primarily cortisol) and mineralocorticoids are two important types of hormones produced by the body's adrenal glands. Under normal conditions, the brain releases a hormone called adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) that stimulates the adrenal glands to release their hormones. Addison's disease occurs when either the brain doesn't release adequate amounts of ACTH, or the adrenal glands fail to release their hormones in response to ACTH. The medical term for Addison's disease is hypoadrenocorticism.

Dewclaws are the toes on the inner edge of your pet's paws. They look like thumbs because they are up higher than the other four toes and they don't touch the ground when your pet is walking. Some pets only have dewclaws on their front paws, whereas others have dewclaws on their front and rear paws. Some pets are born without any dewclaws, and others are born with extra ones.
