States stop circumcisions funds amid budget crisis
DENVER - A nationwide debate about circumcisions for newborn boys, combined with cash-strapped public health budgets, has Colorado taking sides with 17 other states that no longer fund Medicaid coverage of the once widely accepted procedure.
For years, Colorado lawmakers considered doing away with funding for circumcisions under Medicaid - a move that would save the state $186,500 a year. The change will take effect July 1.
South Carolina is one of the most recent states to eliminate Medicaid payments for circumcisions amid budget concerns. The change, which went into effect in February, was expected to save the state almost $114,800 a year. States that also no longer fund circumcisions through Medicaid include Arizona, California, Florida, Maine and Louisiana.
More than 5M on Medicare use free preventive care
WASHINGTON - The Obama administration says more than 5 million seniors have taken advantage of one or more preventive services that Medicare started covering free of charge this year because of the new health care law.
The new benefits include annual check-up, as well as specific tests for such conditions as osteoporosis, different kinds of cancer that affect men and women, and heart problems. Counseling for smokers who want to quit is also covered.
Study: Docs overtesting for cervical cancer virus
WASHINGTON - Too many doctors are testing the wrong women, or using the wrong test, for a virus that causes cervical cancer.
The days of one-size-fits-all screening for cervical cancer are long gone. How often to get a Pap smear - and whether to be tested for the cancer-causing HPV virus at the same time - now depend on your age and other circumstances.
But a government study reports that a surprising number of doctors and clinics aren't following guidelines from major medical groups on how to perform HPV checks, suggesting a lot of women are getting unnecessary tests.
That wastes money and could harm women who wind up getting extra medical care they didn't need, says Dr. Mona Saraiya of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, who led the research.

The Narrative of John Smith was written when Conan Doyle was 23, and just a few years before the author published his first Sherlock Holmes story, A Study in Scarlet. It tells the story of a 50-year-old "opinionated Everyman" confined to his room by
He takes in Dr Watson as his flat mate at 221b Baker Street 'to go halves with him in some nice rooms which were too much for his purse', so says A Study in Scarlet, the tale that introduces Holmes to readers for the first time.
This comes as 32 people - 20 males and 12 females aged from one to 18 years old - were recorded having scarlet fever in the past 24 hours, taking the total to 526. Gene-typing tests on bacterium from the seven-year-old girl who died on May 29 show the

Better Holmes & Gardens: Sherlock Holmes on Screen: “A Study in ...
Cushing’s version of STUD , which starred Nigel Stock (who had played opposite Douglas Wilmer) as Dr. Watson, is not a perfect, line-for-line adaptation either (for example, Holmes and Watson are already comfortably ensconced as flatmates at the beginning), but there are details that are thoughtfully and carefully rendered, which show respect for a legacy in its entirety—a consideration for package, rather than just pieces. Starring Sherlock Holmes: A Century of the Master Detective on Screen , “…Cushing’s portrayal of Holmes was praised, and indeed his devotion to the character and attention to detail were invaluable…” (91). For example, upon arriving at Lauriston Gardens, Cushing’s Holmes examines a corpse without thought for propriety or squeamishness, manipulating the body, and bending close to the dead man’s mouth for the tell-tale smell of poison.
