Almost?1.2 million Americans living in the United States are HIV positive,? but about 240,000 (or 1 in 5), don't know they are infected.?That's because they have not been tested. Today is the?18th? National HIV Testing Day , where?the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is recommending everyone between the ages 13?and 64 get an AIDS test.? The CDC says: "An HIV test is recommended once a year for people at increased risk ? such as gay and bisexual men, injection drug users, or people with multiple sex partners. Sexually active gay and bisexual men may benefit from more frequent testing (e.g., every 3 to 6 months)." Founded in 1995 by the National Association of People With AIDS , the annual?testing day is an effort to spread the word about the importance of knowing your HIV status.?Frank Oldham, NAPWA's president and CEO, says so many people were lost in the early years of the epidemic that knowing your HIV status is the first step toward controlling the disease. ?We understood that getting tested for HIV makes a huge difference in fighting HIV, treating it early, preventing spread of the disease and reducing stigma,? said Oldham.? He says the fact that more than 20% of people who are HIV positive don't know it, "underscores the urgent need for increased testing and immediate connection to care for those who test HIV-positive. Now in our 19th year of NHTD, we recognize that barriers to HIV testing, treatment and prevention persist but we remain committed to overcoming them through empowerment and education in communities across America.? In May a Food and Drug Administration advisory committee voted unanimously in favor of the first ever over-the-counter HIV rapid test kit. The OraQuick In-Home HIV Test is an oral test that provides results in 20 minutes and is more than 99% accurate.?It is still pending FDA approval and could be on store shelves within months. There are approximately 50,000 new HIV infections in the United States each year.? Three years ago the Obama Administration launched a national campaign called Act Against AIDS .?The goal was to raise awareness, increase testing, and reduce infections in the hardest hit population like gays and African-Americans. ? On this National HIV Testing Day the CDC is calling on individuals, health care providers and state and local health departments to get involved to help reduce transmission of the virus and promote testing.

Early human ancestor chewed bark

27 June 2012 Last updated at 13:03 ET By Helen Briggs BBC News

An early relative of humans chewed on bark and leaves, according to fossil evidence.

Analysis of food trapped in the teeth of the two-million-year-old "southern ape" suggests it existed on a unique diet of forest fruits and other woodland plants.

The study, in Nature, gives an insight into the evolution of what could have been a direct human ancestor.

Other early African contemporaries had a diet suggesting a grassland habitat.

The first fossils of Australopithecus sediba, discovered in South Africa in 2008, were hailed as a remarkable discovery.

Teeth from two individuals were analysed in the latest research, focussing on patterns of dental wear, carbon isotope data and plant fragments from dental tartar.

The evidence suggests the ape-like creature ate leaves, fruit, bark, wood and other forest vegetation.

Dr Amanda Henry of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, led the research.

"We've for the first time been able to put together three quite different methods for reconstructing diet and gotten one cohesive picture of the diet of this ancient species and that picture is really quite different from what we've seen in other hominins (human ancestors)," she said.

"That's exciting, we're seeing a lot more variation among these species than we'd expected."

Human milestone

Human ancestors from around this time period were probably exploring a wide variety of habitats.

Each species was finding its ecological niche a few hundred thousand years before the evolution of Homo erectus, which spread out of Africa into many different habitats around the world, heralding a milestone in human evolution.

Dr Henry said Australopithecus sediba walked on two legs but probably also spent time foraging in the trees.

"It was still quite primitive; it had a very small brain; it was quite short and it had fairly long arms but it was definitely related to us," she said.

Dr Louise Humphrey of the palaeontology department at London's Natural History Museum said there was debate about the position of Australopithecus sediba in the human lineage.

"The question is, is this a great great granddad or grandma or is it a cousin?

"They were eating bark and woody substances, which is quite a unique dietary mechanism; it hasn't been reported for any other human relative before."

The animal may have eaten fruit and young leaves when food was plentiful, but turned to less nutritious food like bark when times were hard.

However, syrup beneath the bark may have provided a sugary treat.

Dr Henry said: "A lot of people have turned their nose at the idea of eating bark but I always think that what they're eating is probably not the coarse outer bark but potentially the softer inner bark where the sap is.

"And so if you think of maple syrup - it's the sap of maple trees - then it could have been quite a tasty substance."

Housing prices rise in warm weather states

By Bill Briggs

For the third straight month in April, American home prices twitched a tinge higher?as values in the ?sand states? further firmed while listings in some key northern cities continued to chill, a heavily monitored survey reported Tuesday.

The Standard & Poor's/Case Shiller composite index of 20 metropolitan areas showed a year-over-year decrease of 1.9 percent?but?a 0.7 percent national bump?from March to April on a seasonally adjusted basis (1.3 percent non-seasonally adjusted), led by ongoing price rallies in a clump of warm-weather markets thumped by the slump, including Miami, Tampa, Las Vegas and Phoenix.

?I?ve seen (listings here) jumping just like they did back in the day when the banks were approving everything,? said Michelle Tremblay, a Realtor with West USA Realty in Phoenix.

Since last October, home values in Phoenix have inched 12 percent higher, gaining ground during each of the past six months, according to the Case Shiller index.

From Tremblay?s vantage point, however, those loftier home values are akin to steroid-swelled athletes: synthetically pumped prices caused by banks stockpiling foreclosed properties and purposely keeping them off the market until area prices truly soar. Then those same financial institutions can cash in by selling those properties at fatter profits.

?We can see on the street what?s vacant and what?s not. We?re watching these (foreclosed and non-listed) houses just sit and rot,? Tremblay said. ?The banks are letting these houses just deteriorate.

?They?re holding them and releasing them slowly to drive the value up.?

Some Realtors in another so-called ?sand state,? California, recently have joined that chorus, offering similar, albeit unproven, theories about banks hoarding foreclosures and thus shrinking inventory in most markets.

In three California cities on the Case Shiller index -? Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco -? home prices have increased during February, March and April.

Fellow ?sand state? cities Miami and Tampa each have posted five straight months of home-value gains. Las Vegas, the largest metro area in Nevada ? the fourth ?sand state? ? in April notched its third month in a row of heightened property prices, according to Case Shiller?s survey.

?Realtors across the country are all talking about the same stuff: the banks are the ones in control right now and they know it and they?re going to make the money again ? and again and again,? Tremblay said. Not long ago, distressed homes ?were selling, I think, too cheaply. And the banks weren?t making the money that they wanted to. So they tightened their inventory.?

In response, Wells Fargo senior economist Mark Vitner said?large banks are not colluding to hoard distressed properties until better days so as to squeeze more out of the values of those homes.?

"I don't think there's any concerted effort to hold properties back from the market," Vitner said. "The process to (work through and re-sell) foreclosure inventory is lengthy and there just seems to be a lot of hurdles out there to getting these properties to market. A lot of the best properties have been in foreclosure and have already sold."

But, Vitner acknowledged that some "small community banks are holding onto properties because the value that they could realize from selling the properties is so much more than what their books currently show, (meaning that listing those distressed homes) could have an inverse impact on their balance sheets."?

Robert J. Shiller, one of the two developers of the monthly index, agreed that ?it is an artificial market in that there is a lot of inventory held off.?

But Shiller, an Arthur M. Okun Professor of Economics at Yale University, sees still another hidden reservoir of prospective properties for sale ? ?a shadow inventory held off by homeowners who might sell if home prices come back up enough.?

Two weeks ago, market analytics service CoreLogic reported that the "residential shadow inventory" - which includes?bank-owned homes - had declined to 1.5 million units in April, representing a four-month supply as well as a 14.8 percent drop from the same month one year earlier. In April 2011, the?shadow inventory held a six-month supply of homes - roughly the same level as October 2008 when the housing crash began. Those CoreLogic figures seemed to bolster the view offered by Wells Fargo's Vitner that big banks are not holding back distressed properties, especially in markets where lenders have revved the pace of foreclosures.

A government market

Still, with about 90 percent of American mortgages held by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the Federal Housing Authority, ?it?s really a government market now," Shiller said. "So anyone contemplating speculating in housing has to think about what the government is likely to do. And we?re in limbo right now.

?We have a presidential election coming up. We haven?t resolved what were going to do with Fannie and Freddie ? presumably something will be done with them afterward.?

The latest S&P Case-Shiller results show on average home prices increased 1.3% in April, with David Blitzer, S&P 500 Index committee chairman.

In February 2011, the Obama administration issued a white paper that examined possible remedies for those two sputtering behemoths of housing finance. The report gave Congress options to mull. Banking giants backed the notion of axing Fannie and Freddie which, combined, ate up about $150 billion in bailout money. Groups representing consumers and the real estate industry have argued against scuttling Fannie and Freddie.

?Between all that ? and the mortgage-tax interest deduction that also has been questioned in this time of deficit cutting ? these things are on everyone?s mind,? Shiller said. ?But there?s not a way to forecast. I think forecasting political science is even more tenuous than forecasting economics.?

Projecting the direction of home prices in several vital northern cities has grown more challenging the past year. In Boston, home prices have dipped during six of the past eight months, according to Case Shiller. In New York, property values have declined for seven consecutive months. Chicago, up a tick in April, has nonetheless posted seven price drops in nine months, the index shows.

?Is any of that political and financial uncertainty perhaps fueling some fall-off in home prices those metro areas??

?I guess it is. People are holding off ... People are hoping for prices to go back up (in those cities),? Shiller said. ?And we?ll see the shadow inventory converted into real inventory if people start to see the prices go back up.?

But in Chicago, where home prices are off 7.2 percent since last August, the Case Shiller index reports, some Realtors are blaming another segment of the home-financing equation.

?The appraisers are keeping the prices low,? said Patrick Hawkins, a broker with Dream Town Realty in Chicago.

The last time Chicago property values were this depleted on the Case Shiller index: November 2000.

?Buyers are willing to spend a little more money right now. Inventory is low. But the appraisers just are reticent to come in with a strong enough number,? Hawkins said. ??What I?m assuming an appraiser would say is: It?s the market conditions, it?s people not having enough jobs, it?s the economy.

?Appraisers ? they?re killing the market. The prices have been driven down, beaten to a pulp.?

Tommy Thompson, Wisconsin GOP Senate Candidate, Mistakenly Refers To Sept. 11 As Sept. 18

WASHINGTON -- Tommy Thompson, the former Wisconsin governor who is now vying for the state's open U.S. Senate seat, appears to have misspoken at a recent campaign event, telling voters that the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks occurred on Sept. 18.

Thompson made his comments during a June 4 speech to the Lake Country Area Defenders of Liberty in Oconomowoc, Wis., in which he argued that his time as President George W. Bush's Health and Human Services Secretary, a position he held from 2001-2005, prepared him to hit the ground running in Washington if elected to the U.S. Senate.

"[A]nd you want a United States senator that is not going to have to go there and find out where the bathrooms are and learn on the job," he said. "I've been there, I ran one of the largest departments in the federal government."

To underscore his experience, he talked about what he did after the al Qaeda attacks on the United States in 2001.

"And then after 9/18, I was responsible for the public health of all Americans, responsible for preventing any attack using weaponized medicines like the plague, like smallpox, like anthrax, like tellurium," Thompson said. "And I was responsible for all that. So there's hardly anybody that has the knowledge or the base of knowledge that I do."

The comments were first highlighted by the site Blogging Blue, and the video was provided to The Huffington Post by a Democratic source in Wisconsin.

HuffPost contacted the Thompson campaign to ask if the former governor had misspoken or if Sept. 18, 2001 was in fact a significant date.

"There are two plausible explanations as to the recent 9/18 versus 9/11 reference made by Tommy Thompson at a recent event," said campaign spokesman Brian Nemoir. "First, the entire civilized world has the wrong date of this historic and tragic attack on our nation's soil; second, during a spirited campaign appearance Tommy Thompson misspoke regarding an horrific episode in our country?s history during which he played a key leadership role. The campaign is fully examining both scenarios."

He declined to answer a follow-up question on whether that meant Thompson misspoke.

Thompson is competing against state Assembly Speaker Jeff Fitzgerald, businessman Eric Hovde and former Rep. Mark Neumann for the GOP Senate nomination. The winner will face Rep. Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.) in November.

With high name recognition, Thompson is currently leading in the polls. A recent survey by Marquette Law School gave him an 8 point lead over Baldwin. In the primary, 34 percent of likely voters back Thompson, compared to 16 percent for Neumann, 14 percent for Hovde and 10 percent for Fitzgerald.

Transcript of Thompson's remarks:

And you want a United States senator that is not going to have to go there and find out where the bathrooms are and learn on the job. I've been there, I ran one of the largest departments in the federal government.

I'll give you how big my department was: We have all the children programs, all the elderly programs, all the welfare programs, all the social services programs, all the drug production programs, we run FDA which regulates 25 percent of the gross national product, run CDC which is the organization that determines what an infectious disease is, ran the National Institutes of Health which is the greatest research center in the world, responsible for all the Native Americans and Alaskan Natives' health, responsible for all the international health of anybody that's coming to the United States.

And then after 9/18, I was responsible for the public health of all Americans, responsible for preventing any attack using weaponized medicines like the plague, like smallpox, like anthrax, like tellurium. And I was responsible for all that. So there's hardly anybody that has the knowledge or the base of knowledge that I do. If you want a conservative that can change things around, that is going to make the tough decisions right now, you want me, and I make no bones about it.

A question some people ponder is how to find a good real estate agent. The best agent may not necessarily work at one of the most top ten companies in the area. The agent who will work best for you would be an experienced agent who will pay attention to your specifications, act in a professional and ethical manner and knows the market in your place.?one.)Word-of-Mouth or Referral?Most real estate professionals entice a sizable amount of business because of a content client who recommends them to a pal, family member or neighbour.

Efficient real estate agents strive to make customer satisfaction their number one priority and can do every thing they could to facilitate a superb experience for a client. Try and find an agent which has a proven track record and reputation for delivering good quality service, client satisfaction, and have experience in the neighbourhoods that you are seeking in.?2.) Do an Online Research For Canmore Real Estate Agents?There are many on-line resources out there when looking for a real estate agent referral, but this by no means ensures premium.

Agents who have knowledge in the field will tell you, but a newer agent will more than likely have the additional time to spend working with you.

Head over to Open Houses in the Area?You need to check out some area open houses where you can actually meet up with a potential agent in a non-threatening manner. Here you may see how they work, collect business cards, formulate an opinion and discuss with them on a personal basis. If you are considering about marketing a residence, pay close attention to how the agent offers the home. Make sure the agent is polite, informative, approachable and professional. Does the agent promote the residence by handing out expert looking feature sheets or other appropriate materials? May be the agent seeking to play up the amenities that make the home much more desirable? Or may be the agent in the corner, back turned and uninvolved in the entire scenario??4.) Pay Attention to Real Estate Signs?Cautiously monitor the real estate signs in your community. Be aware how long from the day they go up until the home is actually sold. An agent who features a best gross sales turnover could possibly be a superior choice than an agent who has lots of for sale signs but several sold signs. An agent who will get accomplishment is what you want.?five.) Why Agents Use Printed Advertising?You will discover a couple of primary reasons real estate agents use printed advertisement. First is to advertise and sell a certain piece of realty. Secondly, advertising is utilized to publicize the agent handling the transaction.
