Pablo Neruda
Clenched Soul - Poem by Pablo Neruda
We have lost even this twilight.
No one saw us this evening hand in hand
while the blue night dropped on the world.
I have seen from my window
the fiesta of sunset in the distant mountain tops.
Sometimes a piece of sun
burned like a coin in my hand.
I remembered you with my soul clenched
in that sadness of mine that you know.
Where were you then?
Who else was there?
Saying what?
Why will the whole of love come on me suddenly
when I am sad and feel you are far away?
The book fell that always closed at twilight
and my blue sweater rolled like a hurt dog at my feet.
Always, always you recede through the evenings
toward the twilight erasing statues.

'I remembered you with my soul clenched in that sadness of mine that you know.' That's my favorite line. Such intimacy of emotion is reflected in those words. Also, an intense rawness and pain are beautifully portrayed with your words throughout the poem. I enjoyed this very much. Thanks for sharing. (Report) Reply

Mixing the plain with the fanciful this poem paints the truth. Seemingly personal, yet it widely applies to all that sit alone at their windows. (Report) Reply

I miss you and it hurts would suffice. But Neruda's soul is special, and he HAS TO tell the world. (Report) Reply

Unique piece from Neruda. Thousand times it will vibrate again...We have lost even this twilight. Drumming, Drumming the beat loud through the conscious of 21st also.....Sometimes a piece of sun / burned like a coin in my hand....Lost the hands, lost the believe, lost the togetherness........Magnificently Neruda overwhelmed the reader at the point of the crossroad where day diminishes and stepping night closely. Twilight complex..... Literally, living time of the man metaphorically the day-time and night signals the finishing journey of a life. Naturally man bends to find out other existence of another super-entity whom we do try to explain as Almighty..... Simply the common thought after reading the piece may be considered as lost love. Partially it is truth and much global idea of acceptance. But according to poem, generally when the feeling of pain appears just at the definite point of time, twilight, we have to throw light on the universal cry of human soul. Longing for eternity....Smart expression of thirst and non-satiety as fits with the style of legendary Neruda....Nice put again by PH.....................Lastly yet utter once again.......always you recede through the evenings / toward the twilight erasing statues.

If Cary-Grove athletics had its own Mt. Rushmore, the sculptor would be sharpening his chisel and studying a photo of Zach Marszal's face right about now.
Several premier athletes have passed through Cary-Grove, particularly in the past 15 years as the football program developed into a state power. Names like Kevin Kaplan, Brian Mitz, Alex Kube, Andrew Lorman, Eric Chandler, Alex Hembrey, Chad McCarron and Kyle Norberg are forever emblazoned in the memories of Trojan fans and foes alike.
While each of those special athletes added to the Cary-Grove athletic legacy in his own way, none was more respected within the building on Three Oaks Rd. itself than Marszal, a 6-foot, 182-pound recent graduate named Cary-Grove Male Athlete of the Year for a second straight year.
"That's never happened here before and we've had some good ones," Cary-Grove director of athletics Jim Altendorf said this week. "That tells you something about the caliber of athlete Zach is."
Marszal played football and baseball and excelled at both. Few locals have played high school football at the level Marszal achieved last fall, when he helped lead the Trojans to a state runner-up finish in Class 6A. The youngest of Steve and Annette Marszal's four children bucked a program trend by becoming the only full-time, two-way player in coach Brad Seaburg's mostly two-platoon system.
Playing the difficult position of strong safety in defensive coordinator Don Sutherland's 3-3-5 scheme, Marszal brought a level of physicality and tenacity to the game for three varsity seasons. He finished his successful senior campaign with 42.5 tackles (3.5 for loss), 2 sacks and 3 interceptions.
"We do not like to play players two ways in football, but the reality of it was we could not avoid playing Zach both ways," Sutherland said. "He was just so good defensively."
Offensively, Marszal brought his physical brand of football to the split end position. His outstanding downfield blocking helped pave the way for an offense that gained 4.936 yards in 13 games. For good measure, he made 13 catches for 231 yards and 4 touchdowns, a veritable receiving frenzy considering the Cary-Grove option offense's run-first, run-almost-always history. He also rushed for 162 yards and 3 touchdowns.
Marszal was recently named to the Daily Herald All-Area baseball team for the second straight season after he led the 19-win Trojans with a .400 batting average (38-for-95). His production increased to a .463 clip with runners in scoring position. He stole an area-best 15 bases, hit 9 doubles, 3 triples (tied for the area lead), 2 home runs and drove in 28 runs.
For his accomplishments during the 2012-13 school year, Zach Marszal has been named Daily Herald Male Athlete of the Year in the Fox Valley.
"I'm kind of stunned," he said upon receiving the news Friday. "It's a great accomplishment, but this isn't just for me. This is for all the coaches that helped me throughout my career and all the players I've played with. It's an accomplishment, I think, for all of us."
Such a statement is typical of Marszal's humble, giving nature. Though he plays football and baseball with a ferocity forged from competitiveness, the affable 17-year-old Cary resident is also the first to shake the hand of an opponent who played well, and he goes out of his way to credit others.
He'd be a great fit for C-G's figurative Mt. Rushmore for another reason: Marszal never shied away from being the face of the program.
"I love the spotlight," he said. "I always want to be up in the big moment, whether it was on the football field or on the baseball diamond. I always wanted to be the one to make the play and give that boost to our team so we could go on to win any game."
Of all the performances turned in by area athletes this season, perhaps none stood out more than Marszal's in Cary-Grove's 41-14 dismantling of upstart Huntley on Saturday, Oct. 6.
Assigned to cover Huntley 6-foot-4 receiver Bryce Beschorner, who led receivers areawide last fall with 44 catches for 818 yards and 11 touchdowns, Marszal intercepted 2 passes and returned one for a 32-yard touchdown. He demonstrated his all-around athletic prowess in that contest by also scoring on a 63-yard reverse and a 42-yard reception.
"I wasn't expecting anything like that," He said. "It just happened."
"That game stands out the most," Seaburg said. "Zach was a great one. He had a combination of athleticism, strength and speed that allowed him to play both ways at two pretty tough positions. For him to play that physically and never leave the field was outstanding.
"Another thing about Zach is he came in as a fullback as a freshman. We were so fortunate this year to have a split end with the mentality of a fullback who could go up and catch a ball and was a great blocker. We put him in the flexible alignment where he was playing like a tight end almost."
Though he'll always appreciate the Huntley game, Marszal recalls another moment from the 2012 football season as his favorite.
"Right after we beat Lake Forest, just realizing we were going to state and how excited everybody was," he said of the Class 6A semifinal. "The last two minutes of the game on the sideline, everyone was hugging each other and jumping around. It didn't feel real. It all felt just like a dream, but it was really cool to be a part of."
Marszal took approximately one week off after football ended in late November. He was back in the gym preparing for baseball, his preferred sport, in early December. He continued to train with the juniors on the football team out of habit, doing agility drills and lifting weights. That was followed by an hour in the batting cage.
The highlight of his spring season came on April 26 in a home victory against eventual sectional champion Jacobs. Cary-Grove led 5-1 until Jacobs slugger Connor Conzelman blasted a grand slam to key a 5-run seventh inning that turned the game around.
The Trojans rallied in their half, scoring once to tie the game 6-6. Marszal then stepped into the box and hit a changeup for an opposite-field, walk-off single.
"There' a reason he was a two-time all-area and all-conference player and batted in the three-spot," said Sutherland, also Cary-Grove's baseball coach for the last 27 seasons. "And being a two-time athlete of the year at our school is pretty special."
Seaburg said Marszal most certainly could have found a college football program that would have welcomed him, but the player's passion is baseball. After graduating with a 3.7 grade-point average, Marszal will continue his baseball career at McHenry County College with the intention of eventually transferring to a four-year program.
"That's the idea," he said. "We'll see where it takes me."
If he plays with the same relentlessness he demonstrated in high school, expect Marszal to carve out quite a future for himself.

TLC warned against chasing waterfalls back in the day, but in this case, we need to make an exception! The waterfall braid is a super-pretty, totally festival appropriate hairstyle that's way easier to create than you'd think. The final product is a romantic, flowing look that keeps your hair out of your face and wraps around your head for 360 degrees of awesome.

Washington state officials say crews have recovered two bodies and believe they have located another eight in the debris of a massive landslide, bringing the likely death toll to 24 amid diminishing hope of finding survivors as the search enters its fifth day.
Two more fatalities were recovered Tuesday and another eight found but not yet recovered, in addition to the 14 deaths already reported, according to Snohomish County Fire District 21 Chief Travis Hots.
The mudslide, which struck the town of Oso on Saturday morning, also resulted in as many as 176 missing person reports, but officials said they could not tell how many were duplicates. Authorities are keeping the official toll at 16 until the eight other bodies are recovered.
Hots said earlier authorities offer their "deepest sympathies and condolences to the families affected by this disaster."
About 200 responders using everything from heavy equipment and search dogs to their bare hands were working through the debris field Tuesday in rainy, wet conditions.
"We didn't locate anybody alive," Hots said. "We haven't lost hope that there's a possibility that we can find somebody alive in some pocket area."
That number of people unaccounted for is expected to change because the power to the nearby logging town of Darrington was restored and more people have called in. An updated number would be available Wednesday, Snohomish County Emergency Department director John Pennington said.
"We're all still hoping for that miracle but we are preparing for the other possibility," Washington State Patrol spokesman Bob Calkins said Tuesday afternoon.
A volunteer was injured Tuesday when he was struck by debris blown by a helicopter's rotor. The man was transported to a hospital for evaluation, but the injuries appear minor, Snohomish County sheriff's spokeswoman Shari Ireton said in a statement.
The 1-square-mile mudslide struck Saturday morning. Authorities have described the search for additional survivors to be "grim" as crews battle uneven ground and rising waters. Monday's search included specially trained dogs, firefighters, law enforcement, aircraft and search-and-rescue teams. Heavy equipment from the Washington State Department of Transportation helped to move trees, boulders and earth.
Authorities believe that the mudslide destroyed 35 homes, as well as 13 manufactured homes, including RVs, and at least one cabin. Part of the difficulty in determining the exact number of missing people comes from authorities not knowing how many of the homes, some of which are kept for vacationing visitors, were occupied at the time of the slide. Authorities also believe some nonresidents may have been working in the area, while some victims may have been passing through in their cars on nearby State Highway 530.
Another obstacle has been the chaotic nature of the debris field itself. In some places, the ground is covered by 15 feet of rubble.
"It's muddy in areas, it's like quicksand," said Hots. "One of the folks out there told me, 'Chief, sometimes it takes five minutes to walk 40 or 50 feet.'" Searchers are also running into gasoline and septic discharge and dealing with ground that geologists warn remains unstable. Authorities believe the slide was caused by ground made unstable by recent heavy rainfall.
Ed Hrivnak, who was co-piloting an aircraft that was first to arrive at the scene Saturday, said a lot of the houses weren't buried. When they got hit, "the houses exploded." He said cars were crushed into little pieces, their tires the only signs that they had been vehicles.
He said he saw people so thoroughly covered in mud that searchers could only spot them by the whites of their waving palms. His helicopter rescued eight people, including a 4-year-old boy, who was up to his knees in concrete-like compressed mud.
The mud was so sticky, the rescuers were worried about getting stuck so the helicopter hovered about a foot away and the crew chief tried to pull him out. "He was suctioned in that mud so much that his pants came off," Hrivnak said.
The boy was taken to a hospital and was reunited with his mom. Hrivnak said the boy's father and three siblings are still missing.
A 22-week-old baby injured in the mudslide remained in critical condition Tuesday, Seattle's Harborview Medical Center said. His mother was also among the injured.
President Obama Tuesday asked Americans to send their thoughts and prayers to Washington state as search operations continue. He said first responders have acted bravely and people have come forward to help fellow citizens.
Obama said he spoke with Washington Gov. Jay Inslee and signed an emergency declaration for the state, adding that his administration is in ongoing contact with state officials.
Evacuation shelters were set up at Post Middle School in Arlington and the Darrington Community Center.

Florida's Environment Series Much of north central Florida (Fig. 1 ) consists of upland ridges, highlands, and hammocks interspersed with interior flatwoods and coastal lowlands. Conservation lands constitute about 20 percent of the north central region of Florida (Table 1). Many temperate species of the southern hardwood forest ecosystem extend into this region and some of the largest hardwood hammocks in the state occur in this area. High pine communities dominated by longleaf pine and scrub habitats also exist. This area supports a high diversity of wildlife, including large numbers of migratory birds that travel along the Gulf coast. This area is characterized by many rivers, which cross the north central region on their way from large swamps in the northern highlands south to the Gulf of Mexico, emptying into the area known as the Big Bend (Fig. 2). Many springs fueled by the Floridan aquifer occur in the region and because of the porous limestone (karst) geology, many rivers disappear below ground only to emerge again some distance away. The Santa Fe, Steinhatchee, St. Marks, and Aucilla rivers all flow underground during part of their journey to the Gulf. North central Florida region with counties.

This swamp serves as an important filtration system for the Suwannee River and provides important habitat for wildlife. There is a 32,000-acre conservation easement over the swamp, one of the largest conservation easements in Florida. The Suwannee River Water Management District holds the easement, which permanently restricts development and limits timber harvesting to sustainable practices.

For example, archeological sites have been found along the Steinhatchee, Econfina, Wakulla, Sopchoppy, St. Marks, Wacissa, and Aucilla rivers. The Lake Jackson Mounds State Archeological Site has yielded some of the most significant archeological discoveries in Florida. The site was once a large ceremonial and trading center dating back to the Fort Walton period of Florida's history (1000-1450 A.D.). At least three mission settlements were built near the Santa Fe river before the end of the 17th century. Spaniards built the Fort San Marcos De Apalache in 1679 at the confluence of the St. Marks and Wakulla rivers. This same fort was later rebuilt and used by the Spanish, British, and later the Confederate Army during the Civil War. The Spanish operated a mission along the Suwannee River known as San Juan de Guacara, which may be the origin of the contemporary name for the Suwannee (San Juanee) River. The Suwannee and lower Santa Fe rivers, served as main transportation routes for goods and people between the interior of north central Florida and the Gulf of Mexico. Some rivers were modified to improve transportation, such as construction of the Slave Canal during the 1830s, which connected the Wacissa and Aucilla Rivers and provided a means to easily transport cotton from Jefferson County to the Gulf of Mexico. Much of the timber cut in north Florida and south Georgia during the late 19th and early 20th century was floated to Cedar Key and other coastal towns of the Big Bend that served as major shipping ports. Springs were important locations for early inhabitants. White Sulphur Springs was regarded by Native Americans as sacred ground for its curative powers. During the early 1900s the spring was promoted as a health resort and the spring water advertised as a cure for almost any ailment. By 1906, the spring had been converted into a bustling resort complete with shops and clinical examination rooms. Today, visitors can view a reconstructed springhouse at the Stephen Foster State Park.

Most of the park's alpine areas lie over the Southern Alps. Glacier and high alpine adventures are popular but suitable only for experienced trampers/mountaineers with the appropriate equipment. Mountaineering, ski touring, ice climbing, rock climbing and abseiling are possible within the area.
Brown and rainbow trout are found in the Matukituki and Makarora area's rivers.
There are limited opportunities for trout fishing in the mid Rees, and in some tributaries and parts of the Dart River. There is a limited open season from 1 November to 31 May with a bag limit of one fish.
Fishing licences can be obtained from Fish & Game NZ.
Short walks abound and are usually concentrated at the access roadends at the Matukituki Valley and Glenorchy. Short walks along the Haast Pass highway on SH6 have the easiest access to the flora and fauna in the park. The Routeburn is one of many excellent tramping tracks.
The Rees-Dart river circuit, Gillespie Pass Circuit, Greenstone and Caples tracks and the Wilkin Valley are wonderful valley walks, with options to continue over higher passes and into alpine areas. In summer these tracks are suitable for people of average fitness and experience. The West Matukituki Valley hosts a choice of huts with exceptional views.
In winter many tracks are impassable or require alpine skills. It is possible to take a guided walk on the Gillespie Pass, Routeburn and Greenstone Tracks.
Jetboat trips can be enjoyed on a number of the park's larger rivers such as the Dart and the Wilkin.
Aerial sightseeing by helicopter or fixed-wing plane is available from Haast, Makarora, Wanaka, Queenstown and Glenorchy.
Mt Aspiring National Park straddles the southern end of the Southern Alps. The closest towns are Wanaka, Queenstown, Glenorchy and Te Anau. It is one of New Zealand's larger parks at 355,543 ha and it lies alongside the largest, Fiordland National Park.
In the northwest the park is traversed by SH6. Good tramping tracks and short walks can be accessed from the small settlement of Makarora between Haast and Wanaka.
Roads also lead to main access points from Wanaka, Queenstown/Glenorchy and Te Anau. Local transport services run to most of these access points, including a boat service from Glenorchy to the Greenstone Valley, and the following services from Wanaka:
Alpine ConneXionsPhone +64 3 443 7966Daily scheduled shuttle services to tracks within the Mount Aspiring National Park and Lake Wanaka region.
Wanaka River JourneysPhone +64 3 443 4416Jet boat transport to Rob Roy Glacier and Mount Aspiring National Park walks from Wanaka.
Bus services to Queenstown, Wanaka and Te Anau are frequent. Queenstown has an airport with regular services and Wanaka airport services domestic flights.
If you use the track system in the park for overnight trips, make sure you are properly equipped and well prepared.
Make sure your group has a capable leader and that everyone is carrying a sleeping bag, cooking utensils, sufficient high energy food (with some extra for emergencies), a waterproof raincoat and overtrousers, gloves, a hat, and several layers of warm (wool or fleece) clothing.
There is avalanche danger during winter and spring (June-November) on the Rob Roy Track, Cascade Saddle Route and Pearl Flat to the head of the valley.
Check in at any of the local DOC offices for the latest information on weather and track conditions.
Follow the outdoor safety code.
Before you go into the outdoors, tell someone your plans and leave a date to raise the alarm if you haven't returned. To do this, use the New Zealand Outdoors Intentions process on the AdventureSmart website. It is endorsed by New Zealand's search and rescue agencies and provides three simple options to tell someone you trust the details about your trip.

Jeff VanderMeer has reported that Tamar Yellin is the first recipient of the $100,000 Jewish Book Council Award for her first novel, The Genizah at the House Of Shepher. This is excellent news, indeed, and I thought I would take the opportunity to reprint here a review of the book that I wrote for the Summer 2005 print edition of Rain Taxi:
Now that we live in an age when all codes decipher to Da Vinci, it is difficult to approach a novel like The Genizah at the House of Shepher on its own terms, because here we have a story of religious scholars and lost Bibles and intrigues of mysticism, the bare plot of which might suggest the author was gunning for bestseller lists and Hollywood. But Tamar Yellin's first novel is not a thriller, nor will it appeal to anyone looking for grand conspiracy theories. It is, instead, a family memoir wrought in fiction, a contemplation of history and fate, a mishmash amalgam of memories and myths.
"Genizah" is the Yiddish word for a place where manuscripts (generally defective or damaged) are stored. Shepher is the name of the family whose history is chronicled by Shulamit, great-granddaughter of Shalom Shepher, the greatest corrector of scrolls in Lithuania and a man who may have made contact with one of the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel. Shulamit, a British biblical scholar, returns to her family's home in Israel to learn about the codex that has been discovered in the attic of the house, a codex that may be the most perfect extant text of the Hebrew bible, or it may be a fake. She lays out the family history in glimpses and puzzle pieces, paralleling the story of her visit to Jerusalem with shards from the Shepher past.
Early in the novel, Shulamit says, "The line of tension between choice and chance is the thread by which the miracle of existence hangs," and this idea becomes the foundation of each of the novel's short chapters, as Shulamit explores not only her family's history, but her own relationship to it. She is a curiously hollow person, someone who has fought against the emotions of her life by drowning herself in the minutia of scholarship, afraid of her sense of dislocation and longing, unsure of her own motivations and desires. It is only toward the end of the book that Shulamit's own personal history is revealed in any detail, though by then it is too late, because having been merely a conduit for her family's story up to that point, it is difficult for her to attract much attention, and so she dissolves into the haze of the book's last pages.
The Genizah at the House of Shepher is a magnificently crafted novel, with each paragraph seemingly placed with tremendous care, each sentence polished to a metallic shine. It is not a difficult book to admire, but the hollowness at Shulamit's core prevents much emotional connection to her or the story, and so the reader is placed in Shulamit's own position, left to analyze and weigh the evidence presented, to sift the stories and weed through the myths with even more objectivity than Shulamit herself possesses (being, as she is, a part of the tale). Unlike a mystery story where the resolution provides the most pleasure, here we have a story where few mysteries are definitively resolved, little is truly in jeopardy, and the pleasure comes not from the cessation of suspense, but from the intellectual journey offered.

I know them's fightin' words, but you gotta trust me on this one. Or, better, take our poll below and see if you can guess what makes Speed Racer better than the flashy trilogy that pitted latex-clad hackers against machines who enslave humans in a VR world so they can use our body heat as energy. Honestly, how could a movie be better than that? Take our poll, and I'll tell you Thursday if you got it right.

The following joint -statement was released today by the Treatment Action Campaign and the TB/HIV Care Association. A copy of the statement was handed over to Dr. Joey Cupido who received the memo on behalf of the National Department of Health following a march to Parliament.
24 March, 2009
Work in partnership to save lives: Increase access to TB prevention, diagnosis, treatment and adherence support
We, as nongovernmental organisations, health workers and community care givers working to prevent and treat TB in our communities, are here today to show our commitment to increase our efforts and build partnerhips to end the TB and HIV coepidemics. We realise that we cannot overcome this immense public health challenge alone and that commitment is needed from every individual, organisation and sector. As civil society, we will continue to mobilise communities and collaborate with government to increase access to TB/HIV services. In turn, we call on government to commit to invest more financial and human resources to address the dual TB and HIV epidemics in South Africa in partnership with civil society.
TB is the leading cause of natural death in South Africa. The number of new cases is extremely high. Co-infection with HIV is at more than 50 %, and as high as 75 % in some areas. South Africa has the 4th highest number of TB cases in the world according to the World Health Organisation (WHO). The annual number of cases notified has tripled between 1996 and 2006 from 109,346 (269 cases per 100,000 population) to 342,315 (722 cases per 100,000). WHO estimated that the true incidence of TB in South Africa was 940 cases per 100,000 in 2006. The successful treatment rate for patients registered in 2005 was 69.4%, well below the target of 85%. As a result of poor TB treatment outcomes, there is also a growing number of people with multi-drug resistant TB.
Despite increased focus on TB by government in recent years, drug stock outs still occur, policies are not finalised, TB contacts are not traced, community health care workers' stipends are not standardised and measures to address TB in HIV positive people are neglected. Today we say enough. Through partnerships, these problems can be solved and TB can be cured.
As civil society, the organisations below commit to addressing TB through evidence-based actions along side government and call for the following :
We must all prevent and treat TB every day. This means that all government departments must come together, with civil society, to address the coepidemics of TB and HIV. Civil society must be able to participate meaningfully in addressing TB, including assisting government in drafting plans and policies and in being part of the decision-making processes of government.
Community care givers play a critical role and must be recognised and appreciated for the major contribution which they are making. They assist with education, screening, referral, contact tracing and provision of adherence support for TB. In most parts of South Africa, community care givers who provide directly observed TB treatment are either unpaid or receive a small stipend. There should be a standardised stipend for all community care givers and they should be trained to provide support for both TB treatment and antiretroviral treatment.
At all levels of the health system, the TB and HIV programmes need to become integrated in their approach. This must occur in the National Department of Health's TB and HIV programmes, provincial programmes, district offices, health care facilities and communities. Policies and plans of the Department of Health should specify what will be done to integrate TB and HIV services. In facilities, patients should be able to be screened, tested and treated for TB and HIV in one facility. All health facilities that provide antiretroviral treatment should also provide TB treatment. Where this is not possible, measures should be put into place to ensure efficient referral systems between TB and HIV services.
The National Department of Health should design and implement a standardised HIV patient record and HIV care registers which include information on TB screening and treatment to ensure that health care workers have complete patient information to treat TB and HIV effectively. If there is a patient with TB who is also on antiretroviral treatment, the same community care giver should support the patient rather than 2 different community workers.
The National Department of Health must increase its efforts to decrease the burden of TB in people living with HIV through adoption and implementation of interventions promoted by WHO as the 3 I's - intensified TB case finding, infection control and isoniazid preventive therapy.
Intensified TB case finding refers to screening HIV-positive clients for TB at every clinical visit. In 2006, less than 25% of people who tested HIV-positive were screened for TB. In the same year, only 32% of TB patients in South Africa were tested for HIV. HIV testing should be provided to all TB patients and all HIV-positive clients should be screened for TB. The Department of Health should provide educational materials encouraging people to know their HIV status and be screened for TB.
We call for intensified TB case finding to be scaled up from less than 25% to at least 80% of people who test HIV-positive. Additionally, the Department of Health should ensure that known HIV-positive clients get screened for TB whenever they access HIV clinical care. Clear and simple screening protocols need to be developed to assist health care workers in diagnosing TB in HIV positive patients. Health care workers need training in screening for TB, particularly extrapulmonary and smear negative TB.
The spread of TB can be easily prevented. This will decrease the burden of disease in years to come, allowing for the health system to better treat current patients and improve the quality of life of patients. We are failing at preventing TB in our communities. The TB Infection Control policy has been in draft format since 2007. This needs to be finalised urgently and should include guidance on cough hygiene, patient separation and triage (administrative controls), ventilation measures and other environmental controls, and mask supply (personal protection). Infection control should be practiced universally in clinics and in community settings. In clinics, N95 respirators should be made available to all clinic staff and masks should be provided to all coughing patients. We call on the Department of Health to show commitment to reducing the spread of TB infection by implementing infection control plans and developing and distributing educational materials. These should include information about the importance of covering your mouth when you cough (with your hand, a tissue or, in a clinic, with a mask) and of keeping windows open in crowded places such as taxis and clinics.
The efficacy of IPT for preventing latent TB from developing into active TB among people living with HIV (PLHIV) is well established. IPT decreases the risk of TB by 64% and is one of the only effective interventions available for PLHIV before they are eligible for antiretroviral therapy. Despite the existence of a national policy for IPT since 2002, less than 1% of PLHIV receive IPT in South Africa. IPT must be scaled up immediately in all facilities in all provinces. A circular should be sent to all health workers reminding them of the national policy and encouraging them to implement it. Any revision of the national policy should not be used as an excuse for delaying implementation of the existing policy.
Drug-resistant (DR) TB needs to be diagnosed as soon as possible in a patient to ensure access to treatment. Our diagnosis of DR TB is alarmingly slow. The current protocol for sending in culture samples allow for patients with DR TB to go undiagnosed for many months. Drug susceptibility testing (DST) protocols and diagnostics should be made available to all facilities. We need more labs that can conduct culture and DST and provide results as rapidly as possible.
TB is curable whether or not a person is HIV-positive provided patients complete their treatment. Once people are diagnosed with TB, they need to be provided with patient-centred community-based adherence support to ensure that they complete their treatment. This will result in better treatment outcomes and will help to prevent multi-drug resistant TB.
TB can be prevented and is entirely curable. We demand vision, commitment,
partnerships, funding, action and activism on TB/HIV and the crisis in public
health now!
Today a memorandum of understanding (MOU), was signed between the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria and the Stop TB Partnership to increase cooperation, improve resource allocation, and bring support to TB-affected communities of great need. Marking a major step in the fight against TB, the MOU, an agreement for two years, will engage partners through the Stop TB Partnership to provide technical assistance from Stop TB Partners for proposal preparation, implementation, and monitoring at country level following international standards. These include DOTS expansion, TB/HIV co-infection, and multi-drug resistant tuberculosis.
Thanks for the explanation there, wish the best for you
TB is a hell of a worst disease and it needs a very long therapy , so its important for physician to insist not to discontinue the therapy in few days . U2 tour tickets|| Dry tortugas

Snow comes to New Hampshire
Snow comes to New Hampshire
People were out taking advantage of the snow Saturday night at Mcintyre Ski Area. For many parents, the snow is a welcome sign during school vacation week.
The Brandt family from Henniker was also excited about taking advantage of the latest blast of winter blanketing the Granite State.
By late Saturday evening, the snow was coming down in Concord. Plows and salting trucks were out. Warm temperatures, however, managed to keep the snow from sticking to the roads.
Many snow-weary New Hampshire residents were looking forward to even warmer weather and hoped this is the last of the snow for this winter.

By Dr. Rebecca Weinshilboum
I am a pediatrician, which means that while I treat children's medical needs I spend a majority of my time talking with their parents -- that is until my patients become teenagers.
As my patients mature, their role in the discussions about their care increases. When they're infants, I can play peek-a-boo with them. My school-age patients compare notes with me on the latest toys and "in" activities. But with these age groups, the most detailed discussions happen between me and mom or dad. With my teenage patients, the dynamic often takes a dramatic shift. I still talk at length with their parents, but at this age the most important conversations take place between me and my patients.
I like keeping parents in the room as we tackle the tough topics of adolescence. I feel this facilitates discussions at home. But often, by the time patients turn 13, it's time to encourage their parents to leave the room so that I can examine and talk with my patients in private. I let my teenage patients decide whether or not they want that privacy. Whatever they decide, I want them to understand that there is a level of trust and responsibility that comes with their age, which is reflected in our patient-physician relationship.
Medical issues change rapidly with adolescence. Adolescents can often get rundown because they don't get enough sleep. Their skin breaks out. They suddenly need deodorant. And menstruation and poor eating habits put some adolescent girls at risk for anemia.
The toughest issues for pediatricians, parents and teenagers still boil down to sex, drugs and alcohol. Some parents resist these conversations, but if I don't talk with my patients they'll learn about sex and drugs from someone else. I can take better care of them when they get accurate information from me. And I encourage parents to have those conversations too. will always be a primary goal for me with all my patients.
On the other hand, I never expect honesty from my teenage patients. Teenagers lie for a number of reasons: to save face, out of fear or in defiance. That is normal. When I talk to teenagers, I say: "I'm not here to judge you. I'm here to educate you and give you information. I am a realist. I know at the end of the day you are going to be out there making your own decisions. I'm hoping you'll make the best decision for yourself and if you make a mistake, you will trust me enough to come in and let me help and take care of you."
I try to keep it real, using humor and plain language to build trust with my adolescent patients. I might ask a 12-year-old girl, "So, do you have questions about getting boobs, having a period, wearing bras, boys and girls, or growing hair and deodorant?" A few years later the questions get tougher. I'll ask her in front of her parent, "Are you sexually active?" If I think she's being less than honest, I'll walk with her to the bathroom. "Straight up," I say. "Tell the truth. I need to know or I can't take good care of you." I believe in empowering my adolescent patients because ultimately I believe they'll make better decisions.
Adolescence is a time to start talking about mental health issues. Teenagers all think the world revolves around them, their needs, wants, and problems. Again, this is normal. Adolescents often seem as though they're about to come unhinged at minor issues. So, how do we separate the normal teenage volatility from a mental illness? I tell the parents of my patients to pay attention to unusual behavior. Has your outgoing child turned into a loner? Has your son stopped sleeping? Or does your daughter suddenly sleep all day? Pay attention to dramatic weight loss or weight gain. These changes in behavior can be a sign of any number of serious psychiatric disorders that first appear in adolescence, including depression, schizophrenia and anorexia.
Adolescence is also . Teenagers often need boosters for vaccines against tetanus, diphtheria, whooping cough and meningitis. There's also a vaccine recommended for girls --and now boys -- that protects against Human Papillomavirus, a that causes cervical cancer. There is some controversy about this vaccine. But I recommend that all my adolescent patients get the HPV vaccine prior to becoming sexually active. For my female patients, the vaccine will protect them in adulthood against a deadly disease. For my male patients, the vaccine protects them against some forms of genital warts and also prevents them from spreading the disease.
I understand that even healthy teenagers are more stressed than they used to be. College-bound students feel the pressure to succeed. Others juggle responsibilities at home with school and maybe even a job. Social pressures weigh heavily on teenagers. Almost all my patients have a winter when they're sick all the time. They get rundown from lack of sleep and catch every bug around. "Remember, that at the end of the day, you are responsible for you," I tell them. "Take care of yourself. And if you have a problem, I hope you trust me enough to tell me so that I can take care of you."

A nice response to the ongoing fracas at the UCL student's union over the use of a Jesus and Mo cartoon in an atheist group's publicity. Read more about this at The New Humanist (Student atheist society in censorship row with student union over Muhammad cartoon)
The Atheist, Secularist and Humanist Society (ASHS) at University College London has become embroiled in a censorship row with the university's student union over the use of a Muhammad-related cartoon on a Facebook page advertising its weekly drinks social.
An interesting situation, particularly given UCL's origin as the first University in England to be established on an entirely secular basis. My irony meter is flickering in the red zone.

You can discuss the results of this online advising process with an academic advisor at any time. The Student Advice Centre also offers special presentations on choosing a course of study.

NC & Co: Learn to Estimate Your Chances of Admission
More and more courses of study are starting to have restricted admission; they have an "NC". When planning their studies, prospective students often ask "Will I be admitted?" It might make sense to have a "Plan B" ready when choosing a course of study. The Student Advice Centre supports you in realistically evaluation your chances of admission. However, please note that no one can predict how an "NC" will develop! During a personal advising appointment, an advisor can explain the admissions guidelines to you, and you can think about what application strategy makes sense for you. If you would like to find out, how university placements are allocated and how to apply, Presentations for Prospective Students has all the information you need.
