PA Physician General, Medical Professionals Discuss COVID-19 Treatment Options Available for Pennsylvanians
Denise A. Johnson, M.D., Physician General (Credit: Commonwealth Media Services)
HARRISBURG, PA — Pennsylvania Department of Health Physician General Dr. Denise Johnson led a discussion on Tuesday about the COVID-19 treatment options available for Pennsylvanians. This panel discussion was part of Pennsylvania's ongoing fight against COVID-19 and educated residents with relevant and accurate information about COVID-19 and addressing the questions of concerned community members.
"New treatment options are now available in our toolkit to help in the fight against COVID-19," Dr. Johnson said. "There are two types of products that can be used for treatment – monoclonal antibodies and oral antivirals. Monoclonal antibodies are authorized treatment of early disease as well as for pre- and post-exposure treatments, while the oral antivirals are only authorized for individuals who test positive for COVID-19."
Dr. Johnson was joined by additional medical professionals versed in COVID-19 treatments:
Dr. Ryan Bariola, M.D., FIDSA, FACP, Clinical Associate Professor of Medicine in the Division of Infectious Diseases at the University of Pittsburgh and the Medical Director of Antimicrobial Stewardship at UPMC; and
Dr. Pablo Tebas, M.D., Professor of Medicine and the director and the PI of the AIDS clinical trial unit of the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Tebas is an Infectious Diseases physician at the hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.

"COVID-19 remains with us and will continue to be with us for the foreseeable future", Dr. Bariola said. "After vaccination and other preventative measures, early treatment with proven and effective therapies is critical for improving outcomes in those who do become infected with COVID-19. With treatment, earlier is better, so patients should seek care and testing as soon as they feel ill. It is likewise critical that providers remain up to date regarding proven treatment options and know how to get these treatments for patients as quickly as possible."
"COVID-19 continues to challenge this nation and the world both at the individual patient level and at the population level," Dr. Tebas said. "We have learnt a lot since the beginning of this pandemic and have developed effective diagnostic, supportive, preventive and therapeutic tools to fight this terrible infection. As the virus does, we need to be able to adapt to the current pandemic situation to offer our patients the best therapeutic options at any given time in the course of their disease and to decrease the strain in our health systems so we can continue to provide the best possible supportive care both to people with COVID 19 and those without it."

With the spike of COVID-19 cases and emerging variants, there may be logistical or supply constraints that make it impossible to offer the available therapy to all eligible individuals. Therefore, treatments are being given to individuals that need it the most right now. If you are not sure if you qualify for treatment, speak with your healthcare provider. To find locations to receive these treatments, visit health.pa.gov.
The best way to fight COVID-19 remains getting vaccinated and receiving a booster shot. If you or your loved ones are not yet vaccinated, now is the time to get fully vaccinated, get boosted, and get children ages 5 – 18 vaccinated. Visit vaccines.gov to find a vaccine provider near you to schedule your vaccine appointment.

Hello, Traveling Marla readers! Marla asked her guest posters to take over her blog and make it ours. But truthfully, if I had control over Marla's blog, I wouldn't change a thing. Let's be honest here: really only Marla can write her blog, because it is such a lovely reflection of the unique person she is. Also, I am just not brave enough to go work out on Muscle Beach, though I love reading about it when Marla does.
So instead I picked the most Marla-ish post from my own blog to share, which is still really not very Marla-ish at all. Most notably, there are no pictures of me with very interesting expressions on my face. But it is a post about writing. And obsession. That might be as close as I can come. Hope you enjoy, poor substitute for Marla that it is!
I'm a sociologist, stepmother, reader, cooker, baker, and grower of things who lives in a 170 year old house in Madison, Indiana with a husband, 11 year old stepdaughter, and two badly behaved cats. I recently finished my first novel, The Carthage Speaker's Bureau, about two teenagers in a small, Indiana town who discover the power of the stories everyone has to tell. Currently, I'm working on a revised edition of my textbook, Questioning Gender: A Sociological Exploration. I speak across the country about the importance of creating and preserving places from a sociological perspective. You can read the text of the speech I gave at the National Main Street Conference here.

Invasive alien species are plants, animals and microbes that are introduced into countries, and then out-compete the indigenous species.Invasive alien species are causing billions of rands of damage to South Africa's economy every year, and are the single biggest threat to the country's biological biodiversity.
The fight against invasive alien plants is spearheaded by the Working for Water (WfW) programme, launched in 1995 and administered previously through the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry and now the Department of Environmental Affairs. This programme works in partnership with local communities, to whom it provides jobs, and also with Government departments including the Departments of Environmental Affairs and Tourism, Agriculture, and Trade and Industry, provincial departments of agriculture, conservation and environment, research foundations and private companies.
Since its inception in 1995, the programme has cleared more than one million hectares of invasive alien plants providing jobs and training to approximately 20 000 people from among the most marginalized sectors of society per annum. Of these, 52% are women.
Mechanical methods - felling, removing or burning invading alien plants.
Chemical methods - using environmentally safe herbicides.
Biological control - using species-specific insects and diseases from the alien plant's country of origin. To date 76 bio-control agents have been released in South Africa against 40 weed species.
Integrated control - combinations of the above three approaches. Often an integrated approach is required in order to prevent enormous impacts.
The programme is globally recognised as one of the most outstanding environmental conservation initiatives on the continent. It enjoys sustained political support for its job creation efforts and the fight against poverty.
WfW considers the development of people as an essential element of environmental conservation. Short-term contracts jobs created through the clearing activities are undertaken, with the emphasis on endeavouring to recruit women (the target is 60%), youth (20%) and disabled (5%). Creating an enabling environment for skills training, it is investing in the development of communities wherever it works. Implementing HIV and Aids projects and other socio- development initiatives are important objectives.
To reduce the density of established, terrestrial, invasive alien plants, through labour intensive, mechanical and chemical control, by 22% per annum.
The implementation of an appropriate data management system for new emerging species.
The quantification of the extent of invasive alien plant survey.
Biological control is an attempt to introduce the plant's natural enemies to its new habitat, with the assumption that these natural enemies will remove the plant's competitive advantage until its vigour is reduced to a level comparable to that of the natural vegetation. Natural enemies that are used for biological control are called biocontrol agents. In the control of invasive plants, the biocontrol agents used most frequently are insects, mites and pathogens (disease-causing organisms such as fungi). Biocontrol agents target specific plant organs, such as the vegetative parts of the plant (its leaves, stems or roots) or the reproductive parts (flowers, fruits or seeds).
Social development is an integral part of Working for Water, affecting all operations of the programme. The Social Development thrust is aimed principally at poverty relief, but it also seeks to optimise benefits in general.
Working for Water has embarked on a programme to contribute to the sustainable management and control of invasive species, and to add value to the clearing operations. A programme promoting the utilization of biomass from clearing operations was researched since 1998, 1st at a very limited scale but since 2002 the programme was expanded substantially.
The Working for Water Programme (WfW) initiated the first National Teachers Conference (now known as the National Environmental Education Teachers' Conference) 2009. The success of the teacher's conference led to embarking on a Partnership Project with the Department of Education provincially as well as nationally. The Lead Teacher Project is one of the "Spin Offs" of the National Teachers' Conference of 2009.
The projects include national priority wetlands (including existing and proposed Ramsar Wetlands of International Importance). The employment created from implementing these projects ranged over 2000 people during the 2000/01 financial year. Most of these projects since 2000/1were considered to be highly successful, judging by the immediate response of the wetlands and the amount of sediment trapped by erosion control structures within only a few months after construction.
In finding ways of reaching these communities the WfW entered into discussions with Cape Nature who runs an "Outdoor Learning Centre" at its Witfontein Nature Reserve outside George in the Western Cape. The reserve has been running "outdoor environmental classes" for a while but with limited resources.
The South African WeedBuster Week represents the annual culmination and highlight of the ongoing campaign aimed at the management and containment of invasive alien plants. The campaign is an initiative led by the Department of Environmental Affairs through the Environmental Programmes branch, and supported by various partners and stakeholders.

FCA recalls 67,000 Jeep Cherokees for transmission issue
Byron Hurd
FCA announced early Wednesday that it is recalling 67,248 Jeep Cherokee SUVs sold in the United States to address a transmission issue that can potentially result in a loss of power or roll-away situation.
"A review of customer data prompted an FCA investigation that discovered a driveline connection may, in certain circumstances, slip. Should this occur, it may lead to loss of propulsion and prevent the transmission from engaging PARK when the vehicle is stationary," FCA's statement said.
FCA says its Jeep service departments will install updated software that will alert the driver to the malfunction when it occurs. If the vehicle is in motion, the computer will automatically shunt power to the rear wheels to maintain propulsion, FCA says. If a malfunction is detected while attempting to shift into park, the system will also apply the parking brake automatically to prevent roll-away.
The recall applies only to all-wheel-drive models of the 2014-2017 Jeep Cherokee with a two-speed Power Transfer Unit, which simulates the sort of two-speed transfer case found in many part-time four-wheel-drive trucks and SUVs. Jeep brands these systems as "Active Drive II" or "Active Drive Lock." The former was optional on multiple trims; the latter was standard on all Trailhawk models.
Vehicles with the more common "Active Drive I" all-wheel drive system, which does not have a low-speed mode, are not included in the recall.
FCA says one accident has been attributed to this issue, but no injuries were associated. Notices will begin going out to owners of the recalled models next month.

Q: How do I know the working directory of my apache web service? I have a python client (ubuntu) which calls the following web service:
    http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8774/v2/8d118e773c6a44c88f64960c1177ede6/getNodes'
Both client and server are located on the same machine.
How can I find to which working directory this web service (which my client is calling) is pointing to?
(I don't know the source of the web Service. All I know that it is running on the same box and its url. How do I get to the source with these two clues?)

A: Since it is Ubuntu, you can find all the configured Apache hosts in /etc/apache/sites-enabled. One of the files in there will be your web service, and will specify its directory.

Turning workers into 'super workers' with robotic suits.
If you have watched the Iron Man film franchise, you will know that a powered suit gives inventor Tony Stark superhuman strength to fight the bad guys. But away from the fictional world of blockbusting movies, robotic exoskeletons offer more prosaic and useful help for humans.
The military has been in on the act for years, using them to help soldiers carry more weight for longer periods of time. Meanwhile, manufacturers have been busy creating robotic suits to give mobility to people with disabilities.
But now exoskeletons are becoming a key part of the scene in more conventional workplaces, mainly because of their unique offering. "Exoskeletons act as a bridge between fully-manual labour and robotic systems.
You get the brains of people in the body of a robot," says Dan Kara, research director at ABI Research. "But there's more to it than that. You can tie the use of exoskeletons to business benefits that are very easy to quantify.
The main one is a reduction in work-related injuries, and we know that outside the common cold, back injury is the main reason people are off work." The motor industry has used robots for many years. But robots can't do everything, points out technical expert Marty Smets, of Ford's human systems and virtual manufacturing unit.
"In our plants, we see a need for both people and robots," he says. Some Ford assembly line workers lift their arms up to 4,600 times a day – that's about a million times a year.
That sort of repetition leaves many suffering from back-ache and neck pain. Now, though, the firm has equipped staff at two US assembly plants with a device called the EksoVest, from California-based Ekso Bionics.
It helps take the strain by giving workers an extra 5-15lb (2.2-6.8kg) of lift per arm. "Incredible is the only word to describe the vest," said Paul Collins, an assembly line worker at Ford Michigan assembly plant.
"It has made my job significantly easier and has given me more energy throughout the day." The company says it is already seeing a dramatic decline in work-related injuries and is now planning to introduce the exoskeletons at facilities in Europe and South America.
Currently, the industrial use of exoskeletons is relatively small – this year only a few thousand have been sold, says ABI's Kara. But, he says, the potential market could be in the millions.
The types of exoskeleton used for rehabilitation can cost more than $100,000 (Sh needing, as they usually do, to replace a user's muscles altogether. However, industrial versions can be far cheaper, at around $5,000.

Crumbs director Miguel Llansó on the "other Spanish cinema" and what's next for him.
In the second part of our two-part interview with Crumbs director Miguel Llansó - which played at the East End Film Festival this week - we talk to him about the creation of a new type of cinema and new ways of making films, plus his own plans for the future. Read what he said about his Ethiopian-set science fiction film in part 1.
MLI'm exactly the same - I don't know whether there has been a resurgence or whether they've always been there and it's simply that now that we're within it, it seems important... I don't know. For example, I have only known about Spanish independent filmmakers very recently. I lived in Ethiopia and before that I didn't know about it. It has been through international film festivals - for example, I met Ion de Sosa (director of Androids Dream) in Locarno, Luis (López Carrasco - director of El Futuro) I knew in Madrid, and I met a lot of people in Rotterdam.
So there is a series of Spanish filmmakers who - more than being on the margins of the industry - I think are trying to create a different kind of industry, perhaps very small at the start, and it has to be a worldwide industry. It's connected to identification, where do we know each other from, or with music as well. I believe that globalisation has permitted many people, from many parts of the world, to get in contact with each other through common interests.
RN: Social media as well.
ML: Exactly. I mean, I hate Facebook, but thanks to that you can stay in contact with various parts of the world and at least have small conversations with, for example, programmers in Brazil who have the same interests as you. "Let's talk for ten minutes" - you chat for ten minutes and that creates a sense of community. And I think that's what is happening, that the Spanish filmmakers who, at best, are a bit lost putting on their films in Madrid, they are starting to find related spaces with [other] filmmakers and lovers of cinema from across the whole world. They can show their work to the world and create a community.
RN: I've realised that if I want to see these types of Spanish films then I need to go to film festivals and last year I saw a range of Spanish titles like El Futuro, Coast Of Death, Falling Star, The Creator Of The Jungle and others at UK festivals. Why do you think these films are having so much success at festivals, particularly those outside of Spain? I don't know whether there's a sense of being undervalued in your own country - which seems to be a normal attitude at a national level, certainly in the UK we're quite critical of British filmmakers - or is it that if you find success elsewhere, you can then return home with more attention paid to you?
ML: I think that the industry in Spain - and when I say industry, I'm talking about production, the press - the big industry is behind the times, which is normal as it has its own dynamics that have been established over the past 20 years and that are difficult to change. A film for them is a film made industrially with 40 or 50 people - and the institutions are still like that as well. The majority of those of us who have applied for grants from the institutions are never considered. Because there's still a tendency to consider cinema as something made industrially in order to be shown on television, for example, with actors from the television.
So what the best of the international film festivals have allowed to happen is still delayed in Spain... people are slow to change their ways of writing for the magazines. For example, with Crumbs, there was an article in The Hollywood Reporter and Variety, but here the biggest magazines - in my own country - not one. There was something in The Guardian not long ago... I mean there are pieces in smaller magazines here that specialise in auteur cinema, of course, but the big media remains [oblivious]. And I think that it's a dynamic that comes from the past. So leaving allows you to develop recognition and a series of relations that sooner or later reach Spain. But cinema is changing its course - there's another type of cinema, there's another way of doing things, with much smaller crews.
RN: So, what you were saying about actors from television - and this need in the eyes of the Spanish industry to have recognisable names - does that not matter so much elsewhere, because if they're not aware of what's going on in Spain (and who's who) then it's all equal?
ML: Totally. In fact, if you think about what happened this year at Cannes, Rotterdam, or Berlin - the biggest festivals that there are - our presence [i.e. the likes of Crumbs and Androids Dream] is greater than that of the Spanish industry productions because those films are made to satisfy the television audience much of the time and the general Spanish audience.
So they're not made as works of art but as consumer products, and they can be well made, I'm not saying that they're not, but they are consumer products. I think that what we're trying to do with our cinema is go beyond entertainment, and to try to think about society, to create aesthetic values... and a lot of the time this is hard, and the spectator has to have the will to understand what you're saying. A lot of the time, the big Spanish industry is trying to create for many people, and those people don't have the time to dedicate themselves to our cinema because their job is hard work, the economic crisis - if you come out of eight hours of work, and take yourself to see Coast Of Death... what a nightmare! People are tired, so if there's not that will on the part of the spectator to ask, "Hey, what does this want to say to me? What values is it trying to transmit? Where are we going?" then it's not going to work. This cinema won't work. The big industry aims to make commercial productions and we - as artists - have a different responsibility, one that is small individually but big collectively.
ML: Do you have other projects lined up, or stories that you'd like to make?
Yes. I'd like to make a film about the 1960s in Ethiopia because I think that the Sixties in Ethiopia were the moment when, above all, Addis Ababa was somewhere very cosmopolitan and very in tune with other places in the world. The students took references from the Black Panthers, from the Parisian students and revolution from 1968, there was a spirit of rebellion, social changes. I would like to make this spirit, not transmitting historical veracity because I don't want to talk about history but the spirit, and mix it with science fiction. So a retro-futuristic film about the cultural revolution. But I don't have the money!
In the first part of our interview, we talk to Llansó about making an anti-Cinderella.

I was a young, impressionable Aboriginal Australian when I first saw her; she was stating her view on television, cleverly honing her point with flashing white teeth which contrasted against her dark skin. What a wit! It was May 1964, the era of black and white television: The Beatles, Twiggy, a mini-skirted "Shrimp", assassinations, Viet Nam and a new generation of Aboriginal Australians who voiced their concerns with such articulate ferocity they forced the world to listen. "Kath Walker — Activist" the superimposed caption read at the bottom of the frame of the television screen; and her teeth flashed and her cutting wit entered our living rooms. She said her first book We Are Going allowed white "ostriches" to see the Aboriginal point of view.

Q: Retrieving user data from Parse "_User" class using "ObjectId" i am trying to retrive a user's data to get the user info from the _User class using the object id. i used this :
var data:NSMutableArray = NSMutableArray()
func loadData() {
    data.removeAllObjects()

    var profileQuery:PFQuery = PFUser.query()!
        profileQuery.getObjectInBackgroundWithId(userId, block: { (objects, error) -> Void in
            if error == nil {
                self.data.addObject(objects!)
            }
        })
    println(userId) // this is the userId as String.
    println(self.data)  ********* // empty array.
}

i am getting an empty array data here.. I've tried this also but same thing's happening here too. :
 var profileQuery:PFQuery = PFUser.query()!
        profileQuery.whereKey("objectId", equalTo: userId)
        profileQuery.findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock { (objects, error) -> Void in
            if let objects = objects {
                for object in objects {
                    self.data.addObject(object)
                }
            }
        }

A: Remember that "findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock" happens async! You need to put any logic pertaining to the data inside of the block.
var profileQuery:PFQuery = PFUser.query()!
profileQuery.getObjectInBackgroundWithId(userId, block: { (objects, error) -> Void in
    if error == nil {
        self.data.addObject(objects!)
        println(self.data) //shouldn't be empty.
    }
})

A: Putting aside why you're using an NSMutableArray for a singular PFUser object—you're basically expecting to see self.data populated in the wrong location. The user would be added to it (assuming a successful retrieval), inside the closure. So do something like:
var data:NSMutableArray = NSMutableArray()
func loadData() {
    data.removeAllObjects()

    var profileQuery:PFQuery = PFUser.query()!
    profileQuery.getObjectInBackgroundWithId(userId, block: { (objects, error) -> Void in
        if error == nil {
            self.data.addObject(objects!)
            println(self.data)  //...shouldn't be empty here
        } else {
            println("Error retrieving user: \(error.description")
        }
    })
}


KURMAN, R.J.; MAZUR, M.; MURDOCK, T.; VERAS, E.
The 3rd edition of this text entails a comprehensive review of endometrial pathophysiology, including the recognition of physiologic conditions (i.e. normal phases and pregnancy), as well as the accurate interpretation of pathologic entities (i.e. polyps, endometritis, gestational trophoblastic diseases, endometrial hyperplasia, carcinoma, etc). The book will maintain a compact size with numerous illustrations and tables. Although, in its essence, the table of contents remains unaltered from the previous edition, we intend to incorporate significant updates related to the expansion of our knowledge of old and newer entities, use of immunohistochemical and molecular ancillary techniques to assist in the correct diagnosis, as well as two new chapters - one with recommendations/suggestions of appropriate terminology for a pathology report (sign out templates) and another one focusing on specific pitfalls/mimickers/confounding factors in the diagnosis of endometrial samples (surface metaplasias, cytoplasmic changes, endocervical contaminants). The complicated subject of hyperplasia and cancer precursors will include expanded commentary on the application of endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN) and how it relates to the traditional classification of endometrial hyperplasia. Additionally, a substantial number of new, all color images, some of which will be available in electronic format, will aid readers to fully understand and confidently classify such complex specimens.
This text will continue to serve as a useful resource not only for pathologists in training and practicing pathologists, but also to experienced physicians, other health care providers and researchers dealing with, and interested in endometrial pathology. At the end of each chapter, a comprehensive summary - tables with key diagnostic bullets - will provide an additional tool for the readers interested in a quick review of the chapter's information. This text will remain concise yet a comprehensive reference that will help pathologists use the most updated terminology, recognize potential pitfalls in the diagnosis of endometrial biopsies/curettages, as well as apply the most current tools in immunohistochemistry and molecular ancillary techniques available in the field at the moment.

Truth, Racial Healing and Transformation - A virtual convening
A fireside dialogue with Dr. Gail Christopher
Thursday, 9 July • 11:00 AM –12:30 PM ET
Synergos has launched a series of discussions on dismantling systemic racism, from inner work to concrete action.
Our series began with Dr. Gail Christopher in conversation with Synergos Advisory Director Swati Chaudhary, tackling the big questions such as how do we create and sustain the changes that are necessary for racial healing to achieve racial justice? What is this moment calling us to do? How do we achieve not reconciliation, but transformation?
Participants were invited to gain an understanding of racial healing concepts and tools, and how individuals and institutions can, and must, take action to uproot racism and transform systems.

Hosta est une commune française, située dans le département des Pyrénées-Atlantiques en région Nouvelle-Aquitaine.

Le gentilé est Hoztar.

Géographie

Localisation

La commune d'Hosta se trouve dans le département des Pyrénées-Atlantiques, en région Nouvelle-Aquitaine.

Elle se situe à  par la route de Pau, préfecture du département, à  de Bayonne, sous-préfecture, et à  de Saint-Palais, bureau centralisateur du canton du Pays de Bidache, Amikuze et Ostibarre dont dépend la commune depuis 2015 pour les élections départementales.
La commune fait en outre partie du bassin de vie de Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port.

Les communes les plus proches sont :
Béhorléguy (), Mendive (), Ibarrolle (), Saint-Just-Ibarre (), Lecumberry (), Bunus (), Ahaxe-Alciette-Bascassan (), Gamarthe ().

Sur le plan historique et culturel, Hosta fait partie de la province de la Basse-Navarre, un des sept territoires composant le Pays basque. La Basse-Navarre en est la province la plus variée en ce qui concerne son patrimoine, mais aussi la plus complexe du fait de son morcellement géographique. Depuis 1999, l'Académie de la langue basque ou Euskalzaindia divise la Basse-Navarre en six zones. La commune est dans le pays d'Ostabarret (Oztibarre), à l'est de ce territoire.

Géologie, sismicité
La région, constituée par des marnes dans les zones de faible altitude, s'adosse au massif des Arbailles daté du mésozoïque et comprenant des crêtes aigües formées par des lapiaz de l'urgonien. L'anticlinal constitue un karst très propice à la captation d'eau. Ainsi les sources Zahagui et Hastokia alimentent le syndicat d'adduction d'eau potable (SIVU) de l'Ostabarret.

La région est située en zone sismique 4 correspondant à un risque moyen. Parmi les très nombreux évènements récents (depuis 1980) les plus importants se sont produit en 2008 et 2010. Situés à 5 km de profondeur, leur magnitude était ML=2,6, donc trop faibles pour être ressentis.

Hydrographie

La commune est drainée par l'Hosta ur Handia, affluent de la Bidouze à Bunus, avec ses propres tributaires Behorteko erreka et Lamissoneko erreka et divers petits cours d'eau, constituant un réseau hydrographique de  de longueur totale.

Climat
Le climat qui caractérise la commune est qualifié, en 2010, de « climat océanique franc », selon la typologie des climats de la France qui compte alors huit grands types de climats en métropole. En 2020, la commune ressort du type « climat océanique » dans la classification établie par Météo-France, qui ne compte désormais, en première approche, que cinq grands types de climats en métropole. Ce type de climat se traduit par des températures douces et une pluviométrie relativement abondante (en liaison avec les perturbations venant de l'Atlantique), répartie tout au long de l'année avec un léger maximum d'octobre à février.

Les paramètres climatiques qui ont permis d'établir la typologie de 2010 comportent six variables pour les températures et huit pour les précipitations, dont les valeurs correspondent à la normale 1971-2000. Les sept principales variables caractérisant la commune sont présentées dans l'encadré ci-après.

Avec le changement climatique, ces variables ont évolué. Une étude réalisée en 2014 par la Direction générale de l'Énergie et du Climat complétée par des études régionales prévoit en effet que la  température moyenne devrait croître et la pluviométrie moyenne baisser, avec toutefois de fortes variations régionales. Ces changements peuvent être constatés sur la station météorologique de Météo-France la plus proche, « Irouleguy », sur la commune d'Irouléguy, mise en service en 1963 et qui se trouve à  à vol d'oiseau, où la température moyenne annuelle est de  et la hauteur de précipitations de  pour la période 1981-2010.
Sur la station météorologique historique la plus proche, « Biarritz-Pays-Basque », sur la commune d'Anglet, mise en service en 1956 et à , la température moyenne annuelle évolue de  pour la période 1971-2000, à  pour 1981-2010, puis à  pour 1991-2020.

Milieux naturels et biodiversité

Réseau Natura 2000
Le réseau Natura 2000 est un réseau écologique européen de sites naturels d'intérêt écologique élaboré à partir des Directives « Habitats » et « Oiseaux », constitué de zones spéciales de conservation (ZSC) et de zones de protection spéciale (ZPS).
Un site Natura 2000 a été défini sur la commune au titre de la « directive Habitats » :
 le « massif des Arbailles », d'une superficie de , présentant une flore très diversifiée marquée par une nette influence atlantique et montagnarde. Cependant, les versants exposés au Sud Sud-Est et Est abritent une flore thermophile remarquable et une au titre de la « directive Oiseaux » :
 la « Haute Soule : forêt des Arbailles », d'une superficie de , présentant une grande diversité de milieux à des altitudes moyennes fournissant gîte et couvert pour la faune ornithologique pyrénéenne.

Zones naturelles d'intérêt écologique, faunistique et floristique
L'inventaire des zones naturelles d'intérêt écologique, faunistique et floristique (ZNIEFF) a pour objectif de réaliser une couverture des zones les plus intéressantes sur le plan écologique, essentiellement dans la perspective d'améliorer la connaissance du patrimoine naturel national et de fournir aux différents décideurs un outil d'aide à la prise en compte de l'environnement dans l'aménagement du territoire.
Une ZNIEFF de  est recensée sur la commune :
la « forêt des Arbailles » (), couvrant  du département et deux ZNIEFF de  :
 les « landes, bois et prairies du bassin de la Bidouze » (), couvrant  du département ;
 le « massif des Arbailles » (), couvrant  du département.

Urbanisme

Typologie
Hosta est une commune rurale, car elle fait partie des communes peu ou très peu denses, au sens de la grille communale de densité de l'Insee.
La commune est en outre hors attraction des villes.

Occupation des sols

L'occupation des sols de la commune, telle qu'elle ressort de la base de données européenne d'occupation biophysique des sols Corine Land Cover (CLC), est marquée par l'importance des forêts et milieux semi-naturels (78 % en 2018), néanmoins en diminution par rapport à 1990 (81,4 %). La répartition détaillée en 2018 est la suivante :
forêts (40,2 %), milieux à végétation arbustive et/ou herbacée (36,3 %), zones agricoles hétérogènes (15,4 %), prairies (6,6 %), espaces ouverts, sans ou avec peu de végétation (1,5 %).

L'IGN met par ailleurs à disposition un outil en ligne permettant de comparer l'évolution dans le temps de l'occupation des sols de la commune (ou de territoires à des échelles différentes). Plusieurs époques sont accessibles sous forme de cartes ou photos aériennes : la carte de Cassini (), la carte d'état-major (1820-1866) et la période actuelle (1950 à aujourd'hui).

Risques majeurs
Le territoire de la commune d'Hosta est vulnérable à différents aléas naturels : météorologiques (tempête, orage, neige, grand froid, canicule ou sécheresse), inondations, feux de forêts et séisme (sismicité moyenne). Il est également exposé à un risque particulier : le risque de radon. Un site publié par le BRGM permet d'évaluer simplement et rapidement les risques d'un bien localisé soit par son adresse soit par le numéro de sa parcelle.

Risques naturels
Certaines parties du territoire communal sont susceptibles d'être affectées par le risque d'inondation par une crue torrentielle ou à montée rapide de cours d'eau. La commune a été reconnue en état de catastrophe naturelle au titre des dommages causés par les inondations et coulées de boue survenues en 1982, 1983, 2009 et 2014.

Hosta est exposée au risque de feu de forêt. En 2020, le premier plan de protection des forêts contre les incendies (PDPFCI) a été adopté pour la période 2020-2030. La réglementation des usages du feu à l'air libre et les obligations légales de débroussaillement dans le département des Pyrénées-Atlantiques font l'objet d'une consultation de public ouverte du 16 septembre au 7 octobre 2022.

Le retrait-gonflement des sols argileux est susceptible d'engendrer des dommages importants aux bâtiments en cas d'alternance de périodes de sécheresse et de pluie. 30,7 % de la superficie communale est en aléa moyen ou fort (59 % au niveau départemental et 48,5 % au niveau national). Depuis le , en application de la loi ELAN, différentes contraintes s'imposent aux vendeurs, maîtres d'ouvrages ou constructeurs de biens situés dans une zone classée en aléa moyen ou fort.

Risque particulier
Dans plusieurs parties du territoire national, le radon, accumulé dans certains logements ou autres locaux, peut constituer une source significative d'exposition de la population aux rayonnements ionisants. Selon la classification de 2018, la commune d'Hosta est classée en zone 3, à savoir zone à potentiel radon significatif.

 Histoire

Une première délimitation du sud de la commune et donc de celle de l'Ostabarret en 1765 entraîne la création d'une région de quint : le Quinto d'Ostibar-Garaci, profond au maximum de un kilomètre. Il s'agit d'une zone de terres communes indivises. C'est une réminiscence des fasceries du Moyen Âge scellant les accords d'exploitation des régions entre deux vallées. La délimitation définitive aura lieu en 1830.

La Première Guerre mondiale entraîne une hécatombe d'hommes jeunes puisque 11 d'entre eux meurent. Cela représente environ un quart des hommes de la tranche 21-49 ans susceptibles de porter une arme.

It's wintertime even though this second week of warm and breezy weather might have me believing otherwise. But, it's definitely December and while eating seasonally in the Spring and Summer was easy peasy, and the Fall wasn't too bad either, learning how to cook (and eat) the leaves and roots of winter is not quite as joyful. At least not at first glance. What to do with all of the spinach, beets, carrots, parsnips, winter squash, potatoes, and sweet potatoes!
I have an extensive collection of cookbooks, but lately I've been relying on two in particular. The Winter Harvest Cookbook has shown me that the winter dinner table can still be diverse and satisfying--exciting even! Tonight we ate a traditional farmer's skillet supper of bacon, potatoes, and kale--we added eggs to the mix for a hearty, warm, and filling meal.
The recipe for Winter Squash Lasagna can be found online here. Gingered beets and brussels sprouts, cabbage with coconut, and chestnut risotto are just a few of the recipes that are going to save me this winter—i just know it!
The other book that I keep returning to is called Simply in Season. What I love most about this book is the way that it's organized. Corresponding to the four seasons, there are four sections and within each section is a list of the seasonal produce that you might expect to find at that time of year. Every page offers a new recipe and the seasonal ingredients used in each one are highlighted from the larger list found in the margin, which means you can search by ingredient with a quick flip through the pages. It has a great reference section in the front too. Root vegetable crumble (with cashews!), stuffed beets, and golden carrot salad are up next.
I also want to check out the kid version, Simply in Season for Children.
If you eat seasonally, how do you cope with the limitations of winter's bounty?
Fate! Once the squash is cooked you can also puree the squash (and all the gooey bits and butter left over) with some heavy cream for a twist on ye old mashed potatoes. It's another recipe of Ina's and it's perfection in the Fall and Winter.
What a great post for inspiration J! I haven't been very creative lately...mostly bean soups from Griff's beans he grew and dried. I usually end up relying on roasting or slow cooking these days because I need to be speedy! I have a really good recipe for a kale, bean and sausage soup that I love. I do love squash casseroles and soon I will be making collards for new years and this winter on occassion with leftover (frozen) smoked turkey from Thanksgiving. I need more people to feed to get me motivated ;) That chestnut rissoto sounds sooooo good.

2021 Solar Industry Trends
The solar industry is ever-growing with more and more patrons making the switch to solar energy. While 2020 had its downfalls, the solar industry was still booming and it's even projected to continue doing well throughout all of 2021. If you're relatively new to the solar industry or just wish to know what to look out for during this year, continue reading below. Solar Stack is deeply knowledgeable about the solar industry and call tell you which trends will be making their way into 2021.
Solar Industry Trends in 2021
While the future isn't predictable, there are quite a few trends theorized to occur in the 2021 solar industry. They include:
Increase Popularity in Solar Power, Despite The Pandemic
With the pandemic's introduction into 2020, property owners were challenged to find new ways to save money. The solar industry had its own challenges as well, with businesses utilizing strict safety protocols as well properly using digital business practices. Nevertheless, the solar industry thrived, and each month promised an upward trend of property owners ready to take control of their electricity.
Rise in Energy Storage Demands
Natural disasters are more often than not huge burdens to deal with. When one occurs, most property owners often wish there was a way to rely on stored energy for backup during an outage. And while generators do exist, there are more energy-efficient methods to depend on, such as solar panels.
With solar panels, homeowners can rely on a solar battery to be on their side when blackouts occur due to natural disasters or some other cause. In this day and age, especially for business owners, an outage can be one of the most burdening things to deal with. It's because of this that it's expected more and more property owners will recognize the capabilities that solar energy has and will resort to the installation of solar panels for energy efficiency and practicality.
Greater Rise in Solar Companies
Few power plants in America make up a fraction of the companies involved with solar power in the nation. Such large solar farms partner with utilities that have also helped pave the way for cheaper and cleaner renewable energy.
Although solar tax credits have encouraged homeowners to invest in panel installations, the Energy Department has made big deals with large corporations as well, one of which happens to be Apple.
Apple has become the leading installer of solar capacity among numerous other corporations in America, including Amazon, Target, Google, and much more.
Thanks to Apple becoming the #1 market cap of American in late 2019, it's believed that it will begin a trend for other companies to follow a path toward economic efficiency. Because of this, you'll soon be open to a wide variety of various models of solar panels, all of which will need to be properly mounted with Solar Stack's solar mounts.
Don't Miss Out on The Opportunity to Install Your New Solar Panels With Solar Stack's Mounts
When you've realized the potential the solar industry carries, don't hesitate at all to buy your models. And before they're installed, make sure they're installed properly with Solar Stack's solar panel mounts. Solar Stack's mounts will ensure that your panels are securely fitted to your roof, allowing zero roof penetrations while also allowing you to fully benefit from solar energy. For any inquiries regarding purchase and installation, you may contact Solar Stack at 877-SLR-Stack or visit our contact page.

next post: 4 Things to Consider When Buying Commercial Solar Panels


This month's theme is "Building" at my son's preschool. They are building with blocks, deciding what does and doesn't work as a building material, and creating "all sorts of buildings" according to Little Guy. I also have a project in the framing stage that just happens to be about a minute from the school. So, after I collect him from his day, we swing by the job site and, depending on what is going on, we stop by and check on things.
We proceeded to make our way in and around the newly framed walls that just barely define the different spaces on the first floor. I showed him the kitchen and explained where the sink would be. "This is where the oven goes. Over here will be the fridge." "That sure is a big kitchen, huh, Dad?" Down the hallway, into the bathroom where he asked where the sink would go and proceeded to "pssshhhhhhh, wash his hands." "What will this be? Is this a window? Do you have to jump out the front door? (the grade outside hasn't been finalized yet)." It was truly amazing and extremely fulfilling to answer his questions about what exactly was going on in the skeleton of space we made our way thru.
"I like it.", he let me know when we got back in the car, and I'm sure I smiled ear to ear. "Dad, where does everyone sleep?" We had not been able to visit the 3 bedrooms upstairs because…well, they didn't exist yet! He said he can't wait until the stairs get built.
It was, indeed, "just pretend" at one point. The design process does start with "just words" when the initial flood of ideas, the wants and needs of the client, all come out. There's budget and timing and there's sometimes things that people know they want, and know they can't afford. There's managing expectations, determining the level of my involvement in the process, and of course, making sure that the most important people (the ones paying for and living in the house, of course) remain connected and engaged during the process. And we haven't even started yet.
Little Guy and I review drawings together. We look at "pretend" spaces and attempt to identify them. "What kind of room might this be? It has a big table in it with lots of chairs. This is a door. This is a window." We test questions like "Why can't the cars park on the roof? Why should the playroom be on the opposite end of the house from Dad's office? (some answers are more obvious to me than they are to him…)" I like to think that he is absorbing all of this, and I'm sure he is, but at the moment, it's just us having fun talking about what I do; showing him how spaces can be designed beforehand, and aren't just the result of someone nailing a bunch of boards together.
This, of course, can apply to any number of things we encounter in our daily life. Things can be designed. We can design them. I hope to instill in him the idea that we don't have to just accept things for what they are. We can think about how we want things to be. . . and make it that way, or at least experiment a little bit and make stuff up for the fun of it. It's something that happens in the Architectural profession all of the time. We have ideas competitions, or hypothetical design solutions for non-existent projects. It sharpens the pencil, sharpens the mind, and maybe results in some ideas we may not have thought of otherwise. Sounds exactly like something we should be doing with our Children!
The LEGO Architecture book came out last year. It's a story and visual guide to the LEGO Architecture products that I've highlighted in the past. Another product that may be more for Dad than for Little Guy, but as he gets older. . . we'll see!
"I'm extremely frustrated." It's a short sentence that says a lot. I've been pursuing a few job leads that haven't amounted to anything yet and the jobs I am working on have seemed to become just a little more difficult. Except, it's not me that said that sentence.
Little Guy is making the rounds as a new three year old (always hold up 3 fingers when you tell people you are three because. . . then they will get it). He's exploring and explaining every single thing that's around him and it's all really amazing (and often a very amusing process) to be a part of. And of course, every once in a while, a toddler will get extremely frustrated. I'm just surprised that he could tell me that.
How did you know how to change the oil in the car? . . . . well. . . we'll get there. . .
There's an endless feed of information coming across his world view, and I'm pretty sure he's taking it all in and saving for later. If you press him a bit, you can get it out of him. "We sing that song in school", or "This is where we got coffee last time." But it doesn't matter how he knows those things, it matters that he knows them.
Sometimes I can get away with that during the day too. At Studio m Architecture + Design, I'm constantly reviewing projects for code, aesthetic, & overall thoroughness. How do I know how much clearance is needed in and around an ADA restroom? Because I do. I don't expect clients to "get into it" with me and start questioning why I know that or what events lead up to today so that I can solve the problem without looking in a code book (although I would be more than happy to do that). I make decisions because I'm a professional and I have years of experience and lots of opinions about how things should be.
So, somewhere along the way, we stop taking someone's word for it (and that's a good thing). How do you know that that block tower is going to stand? "Because I do." Hey, you're right! Good job.
How do you know that I can take this wall away and my building won't fall down? Well . . . . . It'll work, but we're going to have to consult a Structural Engineer and once we have his calculations, I'll design everything according to his recommendations (he's licensed too). Once we have everything coordinated, we'll size the final structural members that will replace the wall. All of the drawings will, of course, be signed and sealed and additional drawings will be included to detail how exactly everything will look when we're finished. Don't believe me? No worries. The drawings are then sent to the local jurisdiction for review and permitting. . . although some of those people use 3rd party specialized review services to ensure proper review of the design. THEN, you can get your wall removed. . . well. . . by someone who is licensed to do it, and after he's finished, we'll all go back and make sure it's right.
So, my advice to Little Guy? Keep reading. Keep learning. I'll take your word for it most of the time, but when you start to "know" things like that you can land in the pool by jumping off the roof. . . . don't be surprised if I start questioning your knowledge. It's nothing personal. I just know that you might need a little help along the way. . . because I do.
The Frank Lloyd Wright Trust has a store with lots of Wright inspired products. I'm coming full circle back to FLW. Every college architecture student gets flooded with "falling water" related material because he's basically the only Architect that most people have ever heard of. But there's a reason for that.
The Prairie House Blocks are really nice and capture the long, horizontal lines that define the style. These look a little smaller than typical blocks, so check to make sure they're not too small. This is one of those toys that could be for the budding designer. . . . or maybe for dad. . . .
So, I came back to take a look, dusted the cobwebs off a few posts, read some of my 'articles', and I quickly realized that I missed it! Why did I ever abandon Design-a-Dad?! I need to get back on this! I'm going to post something right. . . . (phone rings – detailed, hour long contractor question & answer seeking ensues. . . . ). Oh yeah.
I can't complain. . . or at least I shouldn't. My 'one man show', Studio m Architecture + Design, is doing well. At any given time (including right now) I have several things in the design stages and construction phase that I should be working on. When that's not happening, Little Guy is patiently waiting (or at least. . . waiting) to do lots of fun stuff with me, and is smart enough to say things like "you can work later" to lay the groundwork for a little guilt that I'm "on the 'puter".
So, that's it: I'm busy. That's my excuse for not posting. Welcome to parenthood, right? "You didn't come to the Halloween party last week" (I was trick or treating). "We need to grab a drink tomorrow night" (I was driving to a client meeting an hour away). "Come on, Dad, let's play 'Paw Patrol'" (OK!). As much as I love my job, and I love my Son. . . I am tuning into the fact that I need some little outlets here and there. I'm not talking about going on a week long self realization retreat in the desert. . . but maybe a little break now and then to do some of the things that I like to do.
And here we go . . you have to take a first step, and that's what this post is all about. Next up is the James Bond movie. . . and yes, I do want to grab that drink! Hopefully I can maintain a little time for me. We shall see (Now back to reviewing bids for our new home build in the Spring. . . . .I'm fulfilling the role of G.C. How much time could that require????).
This book was featured by the American Institute of Architects recently and, although I have not purchased it yet, I think it's going to be a hit with Little Guy. Let's face it though, it may be a little intricate for a 3 year old (unless it's appropriate to color everything one color in a circular pattern). I see something like this and I think of cool things I can do with it. It could be interesting to give him a page every 6 months and have him color it. Over time, I would have a progressive timeline of his coloring abilities. . . all on an architectural based graphic which might be cool in a series of frames for the office.
You will hear it again and again how incredible peoples' kids are. They are much more advanced than they should be for their age. It's unbelievable that they can already do this one thing that nobody else in the world could do at that age! And if, like mine, your facebook friends are an ever increasing pool of people who are contributing to the world's population, you have a front row seat to it all.
Little Guy is lucky enough to have been born with the power of mind control. I didn't realize it at first. I thought that maybe we were all just getting to know him better and anticipating his wants and needs. Not the case. At 13 months old, he can already direct me to do things he wants me to do without me even thinking about it. Just the other night – in a comatose state – I rose from my bed, changed his diaper, and returned to my resting position without even realizing what had happened.
Although he has not developed a British accent yet, Little Guy has already perfected the "don't bite your tongue" approach to judging food – in both presentation and in taste. Some reality TV cooking shows have taught us that sometimes, the brutal truth is what the aspiring chef needs to motivate them properly. In "spot on" impressions of Gordon Ramsay, plates are tossed across the dining area, food is spit out, and frustrated but determined cooks head back into the kitchen in an effort to continuously please.
I cannot complete a shopping trip without a slew of googly-eyed ladies swarming my son. I'm not kidding. Babies are cute, for sure, but I believe that Little Guy has been sneaking out at night to watch Jake Gyllenhaal movies while listening to Michael Buble – all the while studying their every move to assist with his own crooning efforts. We are in trouble. . . .
How do you wake up in the morning? Do you get up, get excited, and stand up in your bed jumping up and down in anticipation of the day? Do you laugh and smile when someone opens the bedroom door to take you from your cozy bed? Can you hardly wait to see what the day will bring? He does. Maybe we should too.
I've never seen anyone become enthralled with a credit card. Some of them are pretty cool, don't get me wrong. I customized mine with some of my photography, but they are still just mundane pieces of plastic – to me. After swiping my payment method the other day, a little, grasping, flexing hand reached over in a silent ask to inspect the item I was holding. It was either a credit card or a rare, newly discovered artifact that had only just now been experienced for the first time by humans. Amazing, indeed.
Like David Blaine, Little Guy leaves people standing there in awe asking, 'What just happened?', or 'Where did that go?!" With the quickest movement, something that was just in his hand one second ago is gone. Divert your eyes for an instant, and he's across the room. Amazing, scary, and absolutely keeps you on your toes. A true entertainer. Does anyone have a dollar bill or a cell phone I could borrow? Don't worry. . . . you'll get it back. . . .
There is a quality that James Bond, 007 has that shines when he is held captive. Despite the evil villain's best efforts to get him to break, the secret spy can endure hours of uncomfortable situations all while keeping his cool and still managing to deal out witty remarks. Likewise, my son can push the same button over and over and over again listening to the same sound or quirky song again and again and again. Sometimes he'll look me in the eyes and without flinching, just when I think it is over, he pushes it again.
Sometimes, despite my best efforts, there is nothing I can do to stop the drive and effort that this kid puts forth. He wants to go over there and he wants to go over there right now. Nothing will distract him. Nothing will divert his attention. There is one goal and one goal only. He will also enroll me in helping him get there. Nothing will stop him and you had better not try.
Not exactly "swim, bike, run", but more like "climb, climb, climb". Little Guy will crawl right over you if you're in the way. Up the stairs, thru the chairs, over the cushions. . . there's always a leg being thrown up in an attempt to rise above. Most of the obstacles are taller than he is – doesn't matter. I don't know how many things per day I attempt to get over that are as high as my shoulders. He attempts them all.
Sit him in the playpen for 2 seconds or take away the deadly weapon that he's chewing on and you will definitely get an earful from Little Guy. How COULD you!? But bygones are bygones, and as long as you are up for it, he'll gladly hang out and play some more once the worst part of the day is over. At the end of the day, all is right again.


Halloween is near, and that means it's time for true ghost stories and all things spooky. Though Greenville isn't famously haunted like other cities in the South, it has its share of ghostly legends. With that in mind, here are five haunted places in the Greenville area. Pay them a visit…if you dare.
Veteran Harry Zaglin opened the Greenville Army-Navy store in 1946, and it is now one of the oldest businesses in Greenville. Zaglin died in 1995, and though Zaglin's son Jeff runs the store today, some believe Harry is still hanging around. In 2011, a paranormal investigation group exploring the store after hours heard a disembodied voice, believed to be Harry's, call "Get out! We're closed." and "Come back next week." According to local paranormal researcher Jason Profit, other eerie events in the store include flashing lights, boots that move on their own, and a drawer that refuses to stay put.
The Poinsett Hotel first opened its doors in 1925 and was a bustling business for many years. However, the good times didn't last, and the hotel closed for good in 1987. For 13 years the building sat vacant until a group of investors snagged the property and reopened the hotel as the Westin Poinsett in 2000. The hotel is now booming again, though some say it harbors a ghost or two.
In his book, Haunted Greenville, Jason Profit shares the story of a Poinsett guest who woke up at 2 a.m. after hearing loud noises in the bathroom. The noises stopped when he went to investigate, but soon started again, this time in the hallway. Thinking it was the cleaning crew, the irritated guest called the front desk only to learn there was no cleaning crew on duty and that he was alone on the floor. Other guests have spotted an old man in their room, only to see him disappear before their eyes.
Between 1930 and the early 1950s, the Hopewell Tuberculosis Sanatorium treated hundreds of patients suffering from tuberculosis. Many of the patients died. And though the hospital is long gone, legend has it that the deceased patients now haunt Herdklotz Park which stands where the old hospital once did.
In Haunted South Carolina, author Alan Brown reports that visitors hear a number of strange sounds on the playground, including banging, screaming, and the clanging of unseen bells. At night, people spot shadows flitting in the darkness. In fact, some people living near the park claim these shadowy beings occasionally enter their homes.
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Greenville's Springwood Cemetery is over 200 years old and home to more than 10,000 graves. The cemetery is the final resting place for Confederate soldiers, prominent politicians, and even a NASCAR driver, and like many historic graveyards is rumored to be haunted.
Several paranormal investigation groups have explored the sprawling cemetery, reporting everything from phantom knocks to full-body apparitions. According to Jason Profit, many children who enter the cemetery see spirits adults cannot. Other eerie reports from Springwood include disembodied voices, light anomalies, and blurred faces appearing in visitors' photos.
Built in 1820, Poinsett Bridge in Landrum, South Carolina is the oldest surviving bridge in the state and was once part of a road that connected Charleston and Columbia to the mountain communities of North Carolina. It's now rumored to be haunted.
Several legends surround Poinsett Bridge. One attributes the haunting to a lynched slave, while another claims the bridge sits atop an ancient Indian burial ground. A third legend claims a mason died during the span's construction and is now entombed inside.
Conflicting legends aside, many people are convinced something haunts the bridge. One paranormal investigation team noted unexplained red and white lights in the vicinity of the bridge, while a photo revealed a "mist of man-sized proportion." That same team recorded an EVP that sounded like a human heartbeat. Other creepy reported incidents include unexplained screams, eerie moans, and odd lights.

Trouble at the Erie Coke Corporation Plant
Last month, after news about possible environmental and public health threats posed by the Erie Coke Corporation plant, I requested that the Department of Health and Human Services' Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) conduct a public health assessment to determine if emissions from the Erie Coke Corp.'s coke-making facility has or will cause harm to the health of people living near the facility. Many Erie residents believe they have suffered a wide range of health problems, ranging from headaches to cancer, due to the plant's emissions.
Earlier this month, ATSDR notified me that it plans to work other agencies to determine what information and monitoring data exist about the type and concentration of air contaminants that may be released from the facility or present in the air of the surrounding community. ATSDR will use this information to determine if a public health assessment is feasible and, if so, what type of assessment would provide the community with the most accurate and timely information possible to respond to its concerns.
Protecting the health of those who work at the Erie Coke plant and those who reside near the plant is a top priority. I believe all citizens are entitled to a clean, healthy environment and that any serious threats to this entitlement must be addressed.

Preventing Child Abuse
Child abuse is an unspeakable tragedy whenever it occurs. I recently wrote an op-ed in the York Daily Record, in response to an editorial about the need for additional work to prevent child abuse and improve the lives of children in Pennsylvania.
Every community struggles with the scourge of child abuse, and in my op-ed I discussed several different angles from which we can tackle this problem, from actions I believe the Congress must take to programs in local communities across Pennsylvania that are actively working to prevent child abuse.
The editorial from the York Daily Record is available here and my op-ed in reply is available here.
There are many organizations working to prevent child abuse and protect our children. One example in Pennsylvania is the Pennsylvania Coalition Against Rape (PCAR) and their HERO Project – an innovative educational and motivational campaign featuring radio and television ads that ask adults to step up and be a "hero" for a child whom they suspect may be a victim of sexual abuse by calling a 24-hour hotline.
I encourage you to learn more about organizations like PCAR and what you can do in your community to prevent child abuse.
HealthCare.gov: Making Understanding Health Insurance Simpler
One consistent theme that I have heard from Pennsylvanians in our conversations about health insurance is how confusing it can be to find the right plan. It's challenging to understand what options are available, and it's even harder to determine how plans compare on benefits, price, and other important criteria.
The good news is, things may have just gotten a little simpler with the launch of a new website called HealthCare.gov. This website, which was created as a result of the new health care law – the Affordable Care Act – gives Pennsylvanians, and Americans across the country, more control over our health care by providing the information necessary to make the best choices for ourselves and our families.
On HealthCare.gov, you can learn about:
Health insurance options available to you and your family in your community. HealthCare.gov is the first website to provide consumers across the U.S. with both public and private health coverage options tailored specifically for their needs in a single, easy-to-use tool. By answering just a few simple questions, you can learn what health insurance options are available in your community, and how health plans compare on services, providers and drug benefits. Later this year, information on prices will be added – making this an even more powerful tool.
New rights and benefits provided to Americans under the new health care law, the Affordable Care Act. A timeline shows when new programs under the new law will become available between now and 2014, and information is available to help families, older adults, employers, health care providers and others understand how their health care will improve under the new law.
Information to help you and your family prevent health problems and lead a healthier, more active life – and to assess the quality of health care provided in your area.
The website will be updated regularly, as new information about plans, benefits and consumer protections become available.
I hope that this website will be a valuable resource for you and all Pennsylvanians. I would encourage you to share it with your coworkers, friends and family who you think might be interested in it.
Rally at the Rotunda
On Monday, I joined Governor Ed Rendell and representatives from the Pennsylvania School Funding Campaign for a rally on the steps of the State Capitol Building rotunda. At the Parents' Rally for Education, parents and students alike spoke of the importance of maintaining adequate funding levels for school districts throughout the state of Pennsylvania.
Following statements from citizens throughout the Commonwealth, I discussed how several important federal policies impact the state budget. The Keep Our Educators Working Act, which I am cosponsoring, is as straightforward as it gets when it comes to education: by creating a fund to provide education aid to the states, it would save between 12,000 and 15,000 teaching jobs throughout Pennsylvania. Equally important, however, are extensions for FMAP funding for Medicare, unemployment insurance, and COBRA. Extended FMAP funding is necessary to ensure that the state of Pennsylvania does not suffer a large budget gap, which could result in cuts in education. Unemployment and COBRA extensions are needed not only to protect vulnerable Pennsylvanian families, but also to prevent economic recovery from being stifled, which could hurt the state's ability to collect the revenue it needs for education and other programs. Without this funding, Pennsylvania could experience 20,000 layoffs and a threat can be posed to public safety and schools. Extending this funding has majority support in the Senate. And it has bipartisan support outside of Washington with 42 governors having signed a letter urging Congress to extend this funding, including 26 Democrats and 16 Republicans.
The message of the Parents' Rally for Education is an important one that I will carry with me to Washington DC. I will advocate tirelessly for the passage of the Keep Our Educators Working Act, and for extensions for FMAP funding, unemployment, and COBRA. These programs are important to the citizens of the Commonwealth and vital for assisting state budgets and ensuring economic recovery.
Federal Funding for Ninth and Berks Development
Yesterday, I announced $487,000 of federal funding I secured for a new mixed-use, transit-oriented development near the Temple University Rail Station. I was joined by Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter, and the two developers the City has chosen to partner with on this project, the Asociacíon Puertorriqueños en Marcha (APM) and Jonathan Rose Companies, as well as other community officials and representatives. The City will be working closely with its two development partners to construct a transit village that will strengthen the adjacent Ludlow/Temple University neighborhoods and serve as transit hub for eastern North Philadelphia.
The press conference was held on Ninth Street, between Berks and Norris Streets, next to the parking lot that will be the future home of the transit village. It will include 164 rental apartments, at least 44 of which will be affordable housing units, as well as community and retail space. It will also be sustainably designed with the goal of providing a healthy living environment that ensures improved indoor air quality and a reduction in water and energy use. Aside from its "green" design, it will also provide other environmental benefits, by encouraging the use of public transit that will reduce congestion on the road and dependence on cars.
The total cost of the project is just under $50 million, which represents a significant investment in the neighborhood, and it is expected to create 400 construction jobs and future permanent jobs. It was a pleasure to announce this project with Mayor Nutter as it furthers strong economic and environmental revitalization efforts in the City of Philadelphia.

I especially like how Pari's head looks like it's falling off. And how Kiyan is doing the "I totally know how to wear a jacket" zombie discombobulation.
Pari's got the zombie head tilt down to an art!
It's her Halloween costume purchased at Target a year or two ago. She wanted to be a princess zombie, who was I to argue?
