Catholic Church on Homosexual Scout Leaders
In July of 2015, National BSA headquarters and related BSA governing bodies have resolved to allow Homosexual Leaders in the Boy Scout program. The ruling, however, allows and supports religious organizations that charter Scout units to establish their own membership policies with regard to this issue so as not to violate their religious beliefs. ALL Catholic sponsored Scout units in the Diocese of Arlington - as directed by the Bishop - must have their direct contact leaders (leaders who are in direct contact with youth) agree in writing that they will comply with Catholic Canon Law with respect to homosexuality and the Scout program. As a general rule, all matters of sexuality - of any variety - are considered by Pack 1385 to be personal and sacramental family matters which are not appropriate to be discussed or displayed in the Scouting venue - without exception. Please see the message below from Father Kevin, pastor of St. Francis of Assisi Church, for further Catholic guidance on this matter as it will be applied within the Parish of St. Francis.
St. Francis Position on Changes to BSA Membership
From the Pastor's Desk:
On May 23, 2013 the National Council of Boy Scouts of America's approved a resolution stating that "No youth may be denied membership in the Boy Scouts of America on the basis of sexual orientation or preference alone." In light of this decision by the Boy Scouts to end their ban on openly gay youth from participating in its activities some people in the parish have asked me if this decision by the Scouts will affect our sponsorship of the Girl and Boy Scout Troops we have in the parish. My answer is absolutely not!!
To my way of thinking why should this decision affect our support of scouting? The Catechism of the Catholic Church makes it very clear in paragraph 2358 that "the number of men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies is not negligible. They must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity.. Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided. These persons are called to fulfill God's will in their lives and, if they are Christians, to unite to the sacrifice of the Lord's Cross the difficulties they may encounter from their condition." In my opinion we would be discriminating if we did not allow young people who are homosexual to be a Scout and that would be wrong according to our Catholic Catechism.
Bishop Robert Guglielmone of Charleston, the episcopal liaison of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops to the National Catholic Committee on Scouting, responding to The Boy Scouts of America's approved resolution gave this statement: "I kind of expected that this is the way the vote would go. I'm not particularly encouraged by it, but I knew it would happen eventually. As the policy change is right now promoted, we can live with it. Unfortunately, there are many people who are interpreting this policy to go much further than it actually does, particularly in the secular press. Church teaching is very clear that the homosexual inclination is not sinful and that same-sex attraction is not immoral. But that what we're dealing with here is the distinction between the inclination and the conduct. The standards remain the same as they always have for Scouts. Homosexual activity will not be condoned."
When I was young (a long time ago) I was a boy scout and it had a positive effect on my life. It provided me with great values, an appreciation for this great country we live in, and a love for the outdoors and camping. I would hate to see any young person being denied what scouting has to offer just because of their sexual orientation which they have no control over. To discriminate is wrong and it will not be tolerated here at St. Francis.

Regular readers may know that I suffer from a sensitive, itchy, sometimes flaky scalp as well as knotty ends. This makes me quite fussy when it comes to hair products, more so with shampoo than conditioner because it's the 'poo that's going to either soothe or leave me walking around like a Curious George (you know, the monkey, whose always touching his head…anyway…).
Launched in January 2012, Aveda's Invati hair range is designed for thinning hair, to thicken the look of the hair and reduce hair loss due to breakage by 33%. In contains a mixture of Ayurvedic herbs including ginseng and turmeric, which helps revitalise the scalp.
I have been told that my hair is fine but I have lots of it so it looks thick. However, towards the end of my pregnancy I noticed more hair falling out and I have previously had a lot of hair loss that led to small bald patches – whilst not visible to anyone else they were quite scary to have.
The range – very grown up looking!
I have a massive soft spot of Aveda hair products, everything I've tried from their ranges are brilliant although the prices are a bit steep.
I have been using the Invati range for some time now and so far, so good.
The shampoo and conditioner both smell quite herbally, and the turmeric especially comes through. I find this a lot with Aveda products anyway, no doubt because they do tend to contain more herbal extracts than other brands. It's not horrible at all, I quite like it although you may want to sniff before you buy if you are sensitive to certain scents.
Both of the products are a light brown caramel shade. The shampoo has a really runny texture which is a surprise! Be careful not to use too much as it comes out quickly! The conditioner is thicker,as conditioners tend to be.
The shampoo lathers nicely despite being runny. The product:
The shampoo really addressed a lot of my hair concerns – it didn't irritate my already delicate scalp and I noticed less flaking (even though this is not it's main selling point!). It left my scalp feeling really clean but not dry – I do get a dry scalp from some shampoos and this inevitably leads to itching, which leads to scratching, which makes my roots oily, and then I am washing it every day which dries out the ends.
With this shampoo it was nicely clean so I can wait 3 days (or 2 and a half!) before washing again. This is impressive for someone who religiously usually washes every day!
In terms of hair loss – I have noticed much less breakage and general falling out than usual. I say this in a very unscientific way – basically there's usually a cluster in the plug hole and with these products, I see maybe 1-3 strands!? Yeah, that's it!
The conditioner I have applied to my scalp, seeing as it's full of the good stuff I figured it's not just for the ends! It's a decent conditioner, makes my scalp feel quite good and with a quick comb I can get through the knots.
All in all I am really happy with his hair care range – and I am quite hard to please when it comes to shampoo and conditioner and I like how calm it makes my head feel afterwards. I would definitely recommend it to people with fussy scalps and also thinning hair.
The 3-Step Daily Routine:
Exfoliating Shampoo – £17.80 for 200ml
Thickening Conditioner – £21.50 for 200ml
Scalp Revitalizer (yet to test!) – £41 for 150ml
Aveda Salons are also offering a Invati Scalp Detox Treatment (£60 for 60 minutes) –
A new signature in-salon treatment that utilises the power of Invati to help detoxify and refresh the scalp – bespoke massage techniques, combined with Wintergreen-derived salicylic acid gently exfoliate the scalp and remove build-up that can affect the health of the scalp.
God I would love this! The last time someone gave me a good head massage I was dribbling it was so good.
Do you have any hair woes?

Bronzed NJ mom: 6-year-old's burns not from salon
(CBS/AP) NEWARK, N.J. - A woman pleaded not guilty in court to a charge of child endangerment following an accusation that she took her 6-year-old daughter into a tanning booth in violation of state law, burning the girl's skin.
Through her attorney, Patricia Krentcil, 44, of Nutley, entered her plea in Superior Court Wednesday. New Jersey law bars anyone under 14 from using a tanning salon.
As reported by CBS Station WCBS New York, Krentcil -- whose skin is bronze-colored from regular trips to a tanning salon -- did not speak during her court appearance, other than to say "Thank you, your honor, have a nice day."
Krentcil said outside of court : "Look at my daughter's picture, she's as pale as a ghost, she has red hair. I'm a great mother, I'm a wonderful mother. I would die right now for her."
WCBS: Nutley Mom Accused Of Putting 6-Year-Old Daughter In Tanning Bed Pleads Not Guilty
Watch: Mother accused of letting daughter, 6, use tanning bed
Her attorney, John Caruso, said outside court that Krentcil will be exonerated, because the evidence will show the child never entered the booth.
"Forget about the presumption of innocence; my client is 150 percent innocent," Caruso said. "She loves that child more than her whole life. She would never, ever allow her child to go inside a tanning bed."
Prior to the hearing, Krentcil called the accusation a lie.
"It's all made up," she said.
She told The Associated Press her daughter got sunburned by being outside on a recent warm day. She said her daughter, however, had mentioned to school officials when she complained of itching that she had been to a tanning salon with her mother.
Krentcil had told various TV stations her daughter was in the room at the salon but not in the stand-up tanning booth.
The child is still living at home with her mother, Caruso told Municipal Court Judge Roslyn Holmes-Grant, though he said the state's child welfare agency is monitoring the family.
Krentcil said she loves tanning and has visited salons for many years but would not do anything to jeopardize her daughter's health.
"Never in my life would I endanger my child by putting her in a tanning booth. I'm not dumb," she said before her scheduled hearing.
Police in Nutley told The Nutley Sun newspaper they were called to the child's school April 24 because the kindergartner was in pain from a "pretty severe sunburn."

The Bowes Museum has the richest and most extensive collections of fine and decorative arts in the north of England. Not every object in The Bowes Museum is a masterpiece, but every object is intriguing and interesting, either by virtue of its quality or history, which can often be traced in the archive. John and Joséphine collected extensively and wisely in the 19th century; the later additions in the 20th and 21st centuries saw the same interest and knowledge applied to a wider range of collections, which have considerably enriched John and Joséphine's choice into the fields of English decorative arts, local history and archaeology. There is thus always something more to be said or researched about its existing collections; in addition, the museum occasionally adds to its collections if finances and quality allow. In recent years, we have looked closely at our paintings by Goya and Canaletto; considered John and Joséphine's purchases of modern art in Second Empire Paris and set them against cutting edge modern British art with our own exhibition programme; and instigated programmes of conservation and research on our silver swan, and the recent gifts of the Lady Ludlow collection of porcelain and The Blackborne Collection of lace. 'Director's choice' may therefore not be the 'best' or most valuable objects in the collection, so much as items that are significant within our own collections, and in turn throw light on the wider world beyond.

Oil on panel, 1973.103.43-46
Reginald Grenville Eves was born in 1876, the son of William Henry Eves, a London Justice of the Peace. He spent his early years in London and Sussex and was educated at University College School and later at Slade School of Fine Art where he studied under Alphonse Legros, Frederick Brown and Henry Tonks.
After leaving home as a young man he spent a number of years living in a cottage known as Allan's Hill at Holwick, near Middleton-in-Teesdale and developed a great affection for the area, returning frequently throughout his life for holidays. Eves went on to become one of Britain's leading portrait painters during the first and second world wars. He was elected as an Associate of the Royal Academy in 1933 and a Royal Academician in 1939. Although already in his 60s he was commissioned as an official war artist in 1940, sadly dying just a year later in 1941.

What's New
Swanson Font Family by Wiescher Design
"Swanson" is the son of the swan.
This doesn't make a lot of sense to non-typedesigners so I need to explain. The late, great italian typedesigner Aldo Novarese designed around 1950 a typeface for Nebiolo that he called "Cigno" which means Swan. Cigno was one of Aldo's rare ventures into the design of a script. When I designed Swanson I had Cigno in my mind. But it turned out a much different typeface. I designed Swanson twins. Swanson One beeing the light elegantly floating Swan and Swanson Two the more accentuated heavier brother typeface. I like them both and since they are twins I did not want to split them up, I only sell the pair for a fair price.
Yours sincerly Gert Wiescher

But are eyeglasses sold online up to par with those sold at a storefront optician? And how do these online sites compare in quality of merchandise, range of selection, price, shopping guidance, and shipping and return policies? Experts at the Good Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI) set out to answer these questions.
How We Tested Eyewear Sites
We scoured the Web and found 19 sites that sell prescription glasses or just reading glasses. We looked at how many eyeglass styles each site sold, the attractiveness of the styles sold, their return policy — and narrowed our list to nine that looked most promising. We then asked consumer testers to go online, order glasses and assess their shopping experience and the eyewear bought. We also consulted Ethan Brown, ABO, FNAO, an optician and fellow of the National Academy of Opticianry in New York City, to evaluate the lenses to ensure the accuracy of prescription strength and pupillary distance. Here are our eye-opening findings:
Budget Buy Eyewear Sites
We evaluated three websites that offer glasses at extremely affordable prices: Glassesshop.com, Eyebuydirect.com, and Globaleyeglasses.com. The eyewear from these sites cost our testers, on average, $68 per pair of single vision frames and $143 per pair of progressives.
Best Option: GlassesShop.com Testers found that being able to upload photos of their faces in order to see how different pairs of glasses look on them was very helpful. In fact, in general, this website outstripped its budget-minded competitors across the board. None of the eyeglasses bought from this site had prescription errors and all testers thought the actual frames closely resembled what they had seen in the pictures. Good Housekeeping's Fashion Director Jasmine Chang rated GlassesShop's eyewear the most stylish offered in the Budget Buy category. With more than 500 styles available on the site, just about anyone should be able to find a pair they like. On average, our testers spent $47 per pair of spectacles, again ranking best in the category. Orders arrived the fastest — in eight days. Glasses, moreover, can be refunded for 50% of the purchase price if they prove defective within 90 days. The website also offers a slender money-back guarantee window, open for five days from the time you receive your glasses.
EyeBuyDirect.com Half of the glasses purchased from this site had prescription problems. One pair had an uncalled for "prism," a correction for double vision that the consumer tester did not need; another had an unwanted "retroscopic tilt," with the lenses angling away from the face. Testers who received glasses with the correct prescription were very satisfied with their purchases. And users found the website a breeze to navigate, minus an occasional snag at checkout. True to the website's promise of delivery within 14 days, glasses arrived in two weeks. They can be returned within 30 days for any reason and are protected by a generous one-year warranty.
GlobalEyeglasses.com Spectacles ordered from this site tended to fit poorly. One tester ordered glasses with a cylinder correction that counteracts astigmatism, and Brown noted that it was missing from the lenses. Glasses came in flimsy cases. More so than any other site in this category, GlobalEyeglasses.com dispensed glasses that looked like they did online. They were slow to arrive, taking on average nearly 16 days. Unhappy customers must replace their frames within 30 days, for there is no warranty after the initial money back period.
Fashion Forward Eyewear Sites
Glasses ordered from sites offering more upscale-looking designs — WarbyParker.com, Mezzmer.com, and BonLook.com — pleased our testers more than the Budget Buys. Most testers found the frames from these websites and the eyeglass styles to be aesthetically pleasing.
Best Option: WarbyParker.com "For the first time, I feel confident in my glasses. Confident enough that I actually wore them to work and on a date," a tester who ordered from this site remarked. This site with stylist spectacles carrying names like "Huxley," "Chandler," or "Roosevelt," edged out Mezzmer.com by a nose when it came to being a top pick in this category. The difference was mostly in small details. Warby Parker's came in a spacious suede case, a luxury you'd expect from glasses far more expensive. Live chat and phone support are available for easy shopping. Warby Parker will call your optician if you don't know your prescription. Glasses arrived, on average, six days after being ordered and can be returned within 30 days for any reason. Within one year, they will be replaced for free if scratched.

Mezzmer.com This website and its glasses earned praise from testers, making it a close second to WarberParker.com. There was one set of spectacles that was off in pupillary distance by 4 millimeters — an error that only had a subtle effect, given the tester's mild prescription. Glasses looked upon arrival precisely as shown on the site, which was easy to navigate and offers clear sizing info and a refreshingly useful FAQ section. Glasses are priced at $99 a pair. Mezzmer.com and WarbyParker.com both earned top marks for customer service.

BonLook.com This is the only website in this category to offer progressives. It was also the only website that gave our testers problems. The progressives felt off to testers, as did single-vision glasses: one pair came with too-large frames, another with too-strong lenses. Testers found the digital try-on feature helpful in choosing frames. BonLook.com's single-vision glasses are priced at $99 a pair and took just over seven days to reach testers. The website will replace glasses that prove defective within a 30-day period.
Reading Glasses Sites
In many ways, ordering readers is much simpler and more certain to please than ordering more complex prescriptions from online eyewear sites. Most consumer testers were satisfied with the reading glasses they bought online and our optician expert concurred that the magnifications were all accurate.
Top pick: PeeperSpecs.com With an ideal combination of low prices (average price for glasses we bought on this site was $21), a selection of 500 styles, and quality frames, this site emerged as the top website for buying readers. One tester noted: "I didn't know it could be so easy to order readers on the web and quickly get back a pair that looks good for less than I'd have paid at the drugstore!" The website also made for a painless shopping experience. The site helps you match your eyeglass lens shape to face type and skin complexion to frame color. Glasses took, on average, just three days to get to consumers. The site offers a full refund within 30 days for any reason.
Eyebobs.com The super stylish readers on this site all cost $75 per pair and are perfect if you have a funky aesthetic. You have a choice of cases in many colors, including one "vegan" case. Glasses arrived in one week. A limited warranty covers the glasses for one year, but they can be returned within 30 days for any reason.
ReadingGlasses.com With a staggeringly vast selection of almost 2,000 pairs of readers, this site may be worthwhile for you to check out. Just be forewarned, this site frustrated testers because it didn't offer readers much help in selecting the right glasses from the many available. Glasses reached testers quickly — usually in about four to five days. Returns can be made for any reason within 30 days. A one-year warranty protects glasses against any manufacturing-related defects.

Talking Economics: Eurozone forecasts on track
Eurozone forecast: small upgrades
We have nudged up our growth estimates for the eurozone, but mostly due to base effects and better-than-expected recent data.
We expect growth to rise from 0.9% in 2014 to 1.4% in 2015 (previously 1.3%), and then increase further to 1.6% in 2016 (unchanged).
In terms of inflation, less deflation in the first quarter helped lift the annual average, while a slightly faster-than-anticipated rise in global energy prices will also help.
We expect 2015 inflation of 0.2% (from 0.1% previously), with the 2016 forecast unchanged at 1.2%.
In terms of monetary policy, we continue to expect the European Central Bank to buy €60 billion of assets per month until September 2016, with interest rates kept on hold.
UK forecast: rate hike delayed
The UK growth forecast has been downgraded for 2015 from 2.6% to 2.2%, partly due to the much weaker-than-expected outturn in the first quarter, but also due to negative base effects caused by an upward revision to 2014.
We have lowered our inflation expectations from 0.6% to 0.4% for 2015 due to weaker core inflation (which is partly as a result of the strength of the pound versus the euro helping to lower import price inflation).
The Bank of England (BoE) will not be able to raise interest rates while inflation is still below 1% ( the BoE's lower bound of its target).
So we have pushed out our expectations for the first rate hike from November 2015 to February 2016. We forecast the BoE to then hike each quarter by 0.25%, taking the policy rate to 1.50% by the end of 2016.

You wouldn't know it to look at me, but I am a believer in life-long learning despite some who have suggested that my own personal learning stopped somewhere around age 9.
Whether you prefer indoors or outdoors, or some combination of both, there are ample opportunities all month to broaden your horizons if -- perhaps that should be capitalized, IF -- we are willing to do so.
We are a little more than halfway through a calendar of events that The Last Green Valley calls Walktober 2013. It's more than just hiking and exploring unfamiliar places and spaces. It's proof positive that real education is often what you learn after you know it all.
As someone who holds himself in ridiculously high regard, I have been humbled repeatedly in the last couple of weeks by what I've learned about right here where I live.
On a visit to the Yantic Cemetery last Saturday, highlighting the Civil War Memorials there, I discovered that there's a former Vice President of the United States interred right here in Norwich.
You have to stop
I've mentioned before that I do a lot of walking, and that particular cemetery is one I've walked by frequently in the last 20-plus years.
But last Saturday, in addition to seeing the restored Sarah Larned grave marker, it was inspirational to make the acquaintance of Lafayette S. Foster, the President of the Senate when Andrew Johnson succeeded the assassinated Abraham Lincoln in 1865, and thus became next in the line of the Constitutional succession.
Elsewhere, it was a something to see the final resting place of two Navy admirals, who were also father and son-in law, but who never met. Truly amazing stuff.
Nearly every Walktober event, and we have a ton across the city, is held twice so despite the month being half over, you haven't missed anything. For instance, the Yantic Cemetery tour I just summarized, will take place again this Saturday at 11 a.m.
I've also very much enjoyed The Legend of Uncas Leap and it will be reprised Sunday afternoon at 1.
Take your best friend
There's something for everyone during Walktober, include four-legged friends. Earlier on Sunday, "A Dawgs Day in the City" kicks off -- or is that barks off -- at 9:30 a.m. at the Estelle Cohn Memorial Dog Park.
How about a hike along the "Norwich Millionaires Mile" on Broadway and Washington Street a week from Sunday, or a visit to The Golden Clock Tower that is our City Hall on Monday, Oct. 28?
These walks are part of many other chances to better appreciate the everyday surroundings we pass through on our way to other places.
Of course, one of those places should be the Otis Library, and especially as The Friends of Otis Library are staging their annual Fall Book Fair Friday through Sunday.
It gives us all a reason to stop and read up on so many of the moments of history that we have here in our own backyard -- seen only when/if we learn to look.

South Carolina
Focus on Payer
When analyzing the quality of care patients receive in the hospital, it can be important to consider the expected payer of those services. This section includes data on hospital care measures that refer to inpatient mortality and potentially avoidable complications by expected primary payer (privately insured, Medicare, Medicaid, and the uninsured). A comparison of Medicare, Medicaid, and the uninsured to the privately insured is also featured.
Take a closer look at the quality of hospital care by each payer in South Carolina:
Many factors might influence the disparities within this State, including the context of its environment. To learn about the contextual factors that might have a cause, effect, or other indirect association with the results shown in the performance meters, select this link or Contextual Factors.
Total Hospitalizations by Expected Primary Payer in South Carolina
The pie chart shows the distribution of all hospitalizations by expected primary payer in South Carolina and serves as contextual information when reviewing how each insurance type performs on different measures of hospital care.
In 2007, in South Carolina the expected primary payer for hospitalizations is: Medicare 38%, Medicaid 20%, privately insured 31%, uninsured 6%, and all other insurers 5%.

Womb cancer deaths have risen by a fifth over the past decade, according to Cancer Research UK. The rise has received high-profile news coverage, with newspapers and television news highlighting that the number of deaths is rising as more women are being diagnosed with the disease.
The news is based on new data on trends in womb cancer diagnosis, survival and death. These data reveal that the number of diagnoses remained static for many years, but has increased by 43% since the 1990s. As the number of womb cancer cases has increased over the past decade, so has the number of womb cancer deaths. However, survival has also improved during that period, with 77% of women who are diagnosed with womb cancer now surviving for five years or more.
Although it is often not given the same attention as other female cancers, such as breast cancer, womb cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women, and the ninth most common cause of cancer death in women in the UK. The cancer is most common in post-menopausal women, with cases peaking in women between the ages of 60 and 79 years.
News stories have generally said that the increase in cases of womb cancer (also known as uterine cancer) is due to an increase in obesity. However, it should be noted that while obesity is thought to be a contributing factor, the exact causes of the rise are not yet clear.
How have womb cancer rates changed?
According to Cancer Research UK's figures, the number of womb cancers diagnosed each year had remained fairly stable for approximately 20 years, but since the mid-1990s the number of cases appears to have increased sharply.
To put this into context, in 1997-1998 there were 13.7 womb cancer cases per 100,000 women, but by 2010 the number of cases had increased to 19.6 per 100,000 women. This equates to a 43% rise in diagnoses in little more than a decade. While such an increase is obviously worrying, it should be noted that a 43% increase is a relative figure, and that, in absolute terms, this amounts to an additional 60 cases diagnosed per 1 million women each year. In the same period cases of many other cancers have fallen.
How have death rates changed?
Cancer Research UK has also highlighted that the number of deaths due to womb cancer has similarly increased over the past decade. From the early 1970s to the late 1990s, annual deaths due to womb cancer had steadily fallen, from 4.7 womb cancer deaths per 100,000 women to 3.2 per 100,000. Since the early 2000s, however, the number of deaths each year began to climb, from 1,481 womb cancer deaths in 2000 (3.1 per 100,000) to 1,937 deaths in 2010 (3.7 per 100,000). This equates to a 17.9% increase in the number of deaths per year over the course of the decade. Again, it is important to remember that this is a relative figure. In absolute terms, this equates to an additional six deaths per 1 million women each year.
What has caused the rise?
Several media outlets have reported that obesity has caused the increase in uterine cancer deaths. This is an inappropriate interpretation of both the data and the Cancer Research UK press release. While Cancer Research UK reports that obesity has been shown to double the risk of developing womb cancer, it is not possible, based on the current data, to establish that obesity has caused the specific increase in womb cancer diagnoses and deaths seen in the UK. An increase in obesity could feasibly account for the rise, but this remains a theory without suitable evidence to support the claim.
Cancer Research UK does report that experts believe obesity could be a key factor in the increasing number of diagnoses, but also points out that "we don't yet fully understand what's driving up cases of womb cancer". In addition to obesity, there are several other risk factors for womb cancer, including not having children.
In short, the causes of the rise are not clearly known, and theories suggesting reasons currently appear to be unproven.
How have survival rates changed?
In the context of the increasing number of uterine cancer diagnoses and deaths, it is important to note that survival rates are actually increasing.
While that seems a contradiction, the data show that more women are successfully being treated for the condition, and that they are generally living longer after diagnosis. (Cancer survival is often quoted in how many years people live after their diagnosis, rather than whether they 'survive or not'.) In the early 1970s, 61% of women diagnosed with womb cancer lived for five years or more. Of women diagnosed in 2000 to 2001, 77% lived for five years or more. This is a 16% increase in survival over 30 years.
What are the signs of womb cancer?
The signs and symptoms of womb cancer include abnormal vaginal bleeding (including bleeding in post-menopausal women, unusually heavy bleeding, bleeding between periods and unusual vaginal discharge), lower abdomen pain and pain during sex. Cancer Research UK says that while these symptoms do not usually mean cancer, it is very important to have them checked by a doctor. The symptoms may be due to another more common condition, but if they are due to womb cancer, early diagnosis can improve the chances of successful treatment.
The vast majority of womb cancers are detected in women over the age of 50, although it can still occur in younger women.
How can I cut my cancer risk?
No one knows exactly what causes womb cancer, but there are several factors that increase a woman's risk of developing the disease. Overweight and obese women are significantly more likely to develop womb cancer than women who are at a healthy weight. Additionally, not having children and having a family history of the disease have been shown to significantly increase the risk of developing the disease. Cancer Research UK suggests that one of the best ways to reduce the risk of developing womb cancer is to maintain a healthy body weight.
As mentioned above, increasing age is an unavoidable risk factor for womb cancer, and most women diagnosed are over the age of 50. While there is nothing that can stop us aging, it is important that older women know the signs and keep an eye out for them.

Eliza Hopkins is often confused in online trees with her sister—Elizabeth. Yes, it may be a little unusual for parents to name one daughter Elizabeth and another Eliza, but Stephen Hopkins and Rachel McFarland did that.
Eliza married and moved away from the family while Elizabeth, often called Betsey, did not marry and lived with her parents in Tennessee and Kentucky. Eliza was the mother of William Columbus and James Arton Hopkins. Betsey was the mother of Stephen Henry and George C. Hopkins.
Eliza was born on 22 Feb 1837 in Claiborne County, Tennessee. In 1844, the Mulberry Gap area where the Hopkins family lived became Hancock County. Eliza's two sons, whose paternity is in question, were born there. Family stories indicate Stephen Wolfenbarger was their father, and the rest of that story is already covered in this post about Jim.
Eliza and the boys moved to Harlan County, Kentucky with her parents and most of her siblings about 1864. She married Ephram Simpson in Harlan on 11 Oct 1866. They soon moved to Indiana leaving Eliza's young sons behind with her parents.
In 1870, Eliza and Ephram lived in Highland Township, Greene County, Indiana. Ephram worked as a farm laborer, and his 18-year-old brother, Hiram, lived with them. They were still in Greene County in 1880 but in Back Creek Township where Ephram was a farmer.
By 1900, Eliza and Ephram moved to Epps, Butler County, Missouri. Vannie Radsdale, a 17-year-old boy whose relationship was listed as adopted, lived with them at that time. He was born in Arkansas, and Vannie was a nickname for Van Buren.
Adopting a child seems like an odd action for a woman who left her own sons with her parents when they were both under 10 years old. Maybe she grew to regret that decision. Although his name was listed as Radsdale in the 1900 census, Van went by Simpson the rest of his life.
Eliza's son Jim told of visiting his mother in Indiana as a young man. He said that Ephram did not make him feel welcome so he returned to Harlan County. There is no evidence that her son Lum ever saw her again after she left Harlan when he was a child.
The portrait above of Eliza belonged to my grandfather (Jim's son). One of Lum's daughters had the photo on the right. It is unclear how either of them came to have these pictures. Eliza was in her late 20s/early 30s when she left Harlan County. It's possible the portrait was made before that but she appears older. The photo was definitely made much later in life, and the identities of the others in it are unknown.
Eliza died on 16 Jan 1912 in Epps. She was buried in Sparkman Cemetery without a marker. At some time after her death, Ephram returned to Kentucky. He died in Lincoln County on 30 Sep 1923 and was buried in Wilmoths Chapel Cemetery.
Eliza was my 2nd great-grandmother through her son, James Arton Hopkins.

I'm fostering a 2 year old female guinea pig for my local SPCA. Ginger was surrendered by her former owner. Unfortunately, she had an ear infection and head tilt when she arrived at the SPCA. The head tilt was so bad she couldn't blink and her eye became ulcerated. We've been fostering her for about 6 weeks to treat the ear infection and eye problem. The good news is her ear infection seems to be gone (she's still a bit tilty, though), and the ulceration and infection in her eye is cleared up. But she still can't blink her right eye, most likely due to nerve damage from the infections. That may clear up in time, or it may not. Ginger gets lubricating ointment put in her eye every 4-6 hours. Without the ointment the shelter vet fears her eye could become ulcerated again and might have to be removed.
Ginger needs a patient and gentle human who is willing to put ointment in her eye several times a day, possibly for the rest of Ginger's life. Her new family should have access to a guinea pig savvy vet and be ready (logistically, medically and financially) for the possibility of eye removal.
As a result of being picked up and medicated 4-6 times a day for the past 6 weeks, Ginger is pretty good about being picked up and held. She's still a young, squirmy piggy, but she has learned to sit in our laps. You can see a pic of her here.
Ginger is currently located in central NY state, in the Finger Lakes area, although transportation to the right new home could be arranged.

Paxo in second c-word shocker
Kills off crap email
Newsnight presenter Jeremy Paxman was in trouble for adding a consonant to "cuts" during Monday's show, now he's used another c-word to describe the programme's daily email.
With the subject line "This is an ex-email", Paxman said he was writing "positively the last Newsnight daily email. The time has come to put this exercise in fatuousness out of its misery."
Paxo continued: "The reason for killing it off is pretty straightforward. It's crap."
He explained the idea of the daily email came, "like so many other utterly brilliant initiatives (anyone recall the Newsnight podcast, for people who preferred their television without pictures?) – by visionary senior management at the BBC."
He noted that the mail often arrived after the show had been broadcast – a situation "those responsible are blaming on the tools of their trade. In this case they're right. The piece of kit (the "gizmo" to give its technical name) which sends out the email is completely useless and we can't afford to fix it."
We don't know how many subscribers the Newsnight email has, but we reckon the average Reg reader could knock together a "gizmo" out of an old desktop and some double-sided sticky tape.
Paxman, however, suggests anyone wishing to avoid pleasurable surprise when watching the show can always read the show's blog.
Or... "Alternatively, you could just switch on your television to BBC Two at 10.30pm." ®
