What is the average cost of living in Topeka Kansas?
This is from the chamber of commerce. Topeka is a very affordable place to live, especially when compared to Lawrence and KC. Topeka participates in the ACCRA Cost of Living Index study which measures differences between areas in the cost of consumer goods and services, excluding taxes and non-consumer expenditures, for professional and managerial households in the top income quintile. For the second quarter 2008, Topeka ranked 89.1 overall with the average for 318 urban areas participating being 100. The study is based on more than 60 items, for which prices are collected quarterly by the Chamber of Commerce or similar organization in each participating urban area. The composite index is based on six components--housing, utilities, grocery items, transportation, health care, and miscellaneous goods and services. Small differences should not be interpreted as showing any measurable difference, according to ACCRA. Topeka ranked 92 in grocery items, 77 in housing, 93.3 in utilities, 96.3 in transportation, 93.6 in health care, and 94.6 in miscellaneous goods and services. "Our cost of living is attractive when compared to communities on the east and west coasts, as well as cities in the Midwest," says Marsha Sheahan, Chamber vice president public relations. "We are pleased to see Topeka/Shawnee County getting recognition as a great place to live and work that is cost-pleasing to the family budget.Our housing costs continue to be very affordable and we're pleased this study confirms our belief that Topeka offers a quality living experience at a below average cost."
Who was the founder of Philadelphia?
In 1682, William Penn was granted by King Charles II a charter (possibly as part repayment of a debt), to the territory. Previously, the area had had various European invaders (and different names) who did not necessarily get on well with the Native Americans.
He named the area Philadelphia from philos = love and delphia = brother; literally 'brotherly love'. He was a Quaker and treated the native Americans somewhat better than his predecessors, and enjoyed good relations with them.

Hyperelastic skin is skin that can be stretched beyond what is considered normal, and then returns to normal.
Alternative NamesIndia rubber skin
ConsiderationsHyperelasticity occurs when there is a problem with the production of collagen fibers. Collagen is a type of protein that makes up much of the body's tissue.
Common CausesHyperelastic skin is most often seen in the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. People with this disorder are sometimes referred to as rubber men or women because of the increased elasticity of their skin and joints that can be bent more than is normally possible.
Other diseases that may cause easily stretchable skin include:
- Marfan syndrome
- Osteogenesis imperfecta
- Pseudoxanthoma elasticum
- Subcutaneous T-cell lymphoma
- Sun-related changes of older skin
People with hyperelastic skin are more likely than others to have damage to the skin (cuts, scrapes, scarring). The skin may be more delicate than normal skin. Extra care must be taken to avoid damage to the skin, and the skin should be examined frequently for problems. Consult your health care provider for specific recommendations.
Call your health care provider ifCall your health care provider if:
- The skin appears to be very stretchy
- Your child appears to have delicate skin
Your doctor will perform a physical examination.
Your doctor may ask questions about your symptoms, such as:
- Did the skin appear abnormal at or near the time of birth, or did this develop over time?
- Is there a history of the skin becoming damaged easily, or being slow to heal?
- Was Ehlers-Danlos syndrome suspected or confirmed as a diagnosis for you or any member of your family?
- What other symptoms are also present?
The physical examination may include detailed skin, skeleton, and muscle examination. The joints may be moved in several directions to assess the distance and direction of movement in each joint.

Where was the worst fire in the West Philadelphia area?
The worst fire in Philadelphia history was the 1963 Fretz Building fire, a 12 alarm blaze, that happened in 1963 at 10th & Diamond Streets. Though I am not exactly sure if that is West Philadelphia. The fire burned so hot that it actually started igniting fires around it due to heat alone. I am a survivor of that fire which was located in North Phila. at 10th & Diamond Sts. It was on Jan 1st, new years eve. This fire destroyed "3" blocks of homes, melted cars, blew up the corner bar at the end of my street which was separated from the building by a very small alley. I still keep in touch with some others who lived there also. The Osage ave. fire that happened some years later in Phila. was not the largest.. the Fretz building was to this date! Most of us were routed from our homes late that evening and I was just a small boy that was playing with my Christmas toys. My understanding to this date is that there were no fire company ladders that reached the top of the "10" story brick and wood building that burned and I have never known the cause of the fire!
