Wisconsin State Journal, 3/7/2018

Emergency room visits for suspected opioid overdoses increased 109 percent in Wisconsin from July 2016 to September 2017, the highest spike among 16 states closely tracked, federal health officials said Tuesday. 

The ER data show trends in the opioid abuse epidemic before deaths do, said Dr. Anne Schuchat, acting director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which conducted the study.

Scott Walker's toxic legacy: Pay to play the groundwater contamination way

Wisconsin Rapids Tribune, 11/7/2019

A company fighting for more than six years to build a mega-dairy near Wisconsin Rapids is in a new legal battle over nitrates that contaminated water supplies near another of its operations.  

[snip]

The Wysocki company has been battling Saratoga residents and town officials since announcing in June 2012 that it planned to build a concentrated animal feeding operation or CAFO, in Saratoga. The proposed Golden Sands Dairy, which would hold about 4,000 cows and have about 6,000 acres of crops where the company will spread the manure from the cows, has been the subject of controversy since it was proposed.

They also enriched Scott Walker's "campaign fund" by $31,126.86 over a period of 5+ years.

Headline from Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 1/11/2019)

It got worse during Walker's last two years in office.  

The $50.6 million spent on overtime last year at adult prisons is 17 percent higher than the $43.1 million spent in 2016, according to a Department of Corrections report to the Legislature's budget committee.

Starting wages for officers will increase from $16 an hour to $16.65 an hour this month — a 9.5 percent increase since 2016.  [Annual salary range:  $33,280-34,632]

'Games People Play' by Joe South debuts on the Billboard Hot 100 for the week ending January 11, 1969

A slow week.   Joe South makes his first of 8 appearance on the Hot 100 with "Games People Play", which spent 12 weeks on the chart and peaked at #12, a position he reached the following year with "Walk a Mile in My Shoes."   South made his first two appearance on the chart in 1958 and 1961.

The return of Joe South.  (Christian Science Monitor, 9/12/1990)

JOE SOUTH. You say the name doesn't quite ring a bell? Well, how about ``Games People Play''? That song was the anthem of 1969 - the double Grammy Award winner from South's groundbreaking album ``Introspect.'' With a guitar, a sympathetic band (The Believers), a great warm, rich voice, some memorable melodies, and lyrics that zeroed right in on every personal and universal foible you could think of, Joe South's music became a kind of mental blueprint for a lot of soul-searchers in the late '60s and early '70s. Then he virtually disappeared.

Samuel Snipes, 99, Dies; Lawyer for First Black Family in Levittown, Pa.  (The New York Times, 1/10/2019)

Mr. Snipes represented Daisy and Bill Myers when they and their three young children moved into Levittown in 1957. He handled the closing on the home purchase and informed the police that an African-American family would be moving into the development, knowing that controversy would follow, said David Kushner, the author of the 2009 book “Levittown,” which explored the family’s ordeal. 

“He felt they had every right to live there,” 

Mr. Kushner said. The Myers family’s arrival on Aug. 13, 1957, sparked weeks of unrest, harassment and cross burnings. Threats were made by phone, by mail and by screaming, spitting protesters outside the family’s home. At one point, Mr. Snipes held off a mob until the police arrived.

2018: Hottest year ever for Australian state of New South Wales

Heat records tumble across the Mid-Western Region.  (Mudgee Guardian, 1/11/2019)

2018 was the equal warmest on record for Mudgee for both mean temperature and mean maximum temperature with 16.4°C and 24.1°C respectively matching the highest set in 2017. 

While Gulgong’s annual mean daily maximum temperature of 25°C was a new record, eclipsing the old mark by 0.1 of a degree set in 2006.

2018 at the local sites were true of NSW as a whole, which was the warmest on record for the state. And it was Australia's third-warmest.

2018: Hottest year ever in California's Coachella Valley

Source:  Wikipedia (arrow added)

2018 was the hottest year ever in Coachella Valley.  (Desert Sun, 1/10/2019) 

The Coachella Valley's average annual temperature last year was 76.1 degrees, up from averages of 72 to 73 degrees in the 1950’s. July 23 and 24 were the steamiest days, with the thermometer hitting 122 degrees. Month to month, the area experienced its highest overall heat since 1950, when record-keeping began. 

While it can be tough for humans to notice a few degrees difference in temperature, signs of the trend are evident, said longtime Coachella Valley ecologist James Cornett, of JWC Consultants. Until the 1970’s, it was common for there to be snow downtown about once a decade. But the last time snowflakes accumulated on Palm Canyon Drive was in January 1979, he said.

U.S. Still Leans Conservative, but Liberals Keep Recent Gains.  (Gallup, 1/8/2019)

Since 1992, the percentage of Americans identifying as liberal has risen from 17% then to 26% today. This has been mostly offset by a shrinking percentage of moderates, from 43% to 35%. Meanwhile, from 1993 to 2016 the percentage conservative was consistently between 36% and 40%, before dipping to 35% in 2017 and holding at that level in 2018. 

These ideology figures are based on combined data from Gallup's monthly GPSS and other standalone surveys conducted each year. The 2018 aggregate includes 13 surveys totaling more than 13,000 national adults.

Hyundai promises walking, climbing 'car' concept for CES 2019.  (c|net, 1/2/2019)

Judging by the picture Hyundai sent with its release, the Elevate concept achieves this by adding a range of motion to the vehicle's "legs," on which rest its wheels. That should give it nigh unparalleled levels of articulation on rocky terrain. And, depending on how that motion looks to the human eye, it'll either look pretty awesome or super creepy (like oh so many Boston Dynamics robots).

Compared to its neighboring states, Wisconsin lags in percentage of women in state legislature

Why Wasn't 2018 A Big Election For Women In The Wisconsin Legislature?  (WisContext, 1/7/2019)

Over the past three decades in Wisconsin, the number of women in each legislative class has been on average about one-quarter overall. The sessions with the most women were 1989-1990 and 2003-2004, each reaching 28 percent. The state's incoming 2019-2020 class fell just short of reaching that mark, with 27 percent women, according to an analysis by the Wisconsin Women's Council. A state agency aimed to promote and enhance the well-being of women, the 15-member council is appointed by the governor and the Legislature's leadership, and consists of both public and legislative members.

Democrats lead the way in Wisconsin.
