They need to break up mustard into fake yellow American mustard-like paste and actual mustard

Drug overdoses in the United States, by county 1999 v 2014.
Maybe you can see the fine details better on Photobucket.

flamed up. but still the same places.

The Mountain West is higher than I expected, especially New Mexico.
The map could use a more extended color scale, when so much of the US is in the highest category.

How do overdose deaths compare to HIV and other infections from drug use?

 

[Paul in Saudi]

HIV deaths are way down. AIDS is now a chronic disease that can be managed with drugs.

 

[hobbsyoyo]

And according to an endless stream of sensational articles, nearly cured and/or preventable via vaccine. Even though the reports tend to overstate the situation, there really has been a lot of remarkable progress on the disease. Finally

Note that dutchfire never talked about deaths from HIV.

Oh, before 2016 there are fluctuations, and then every graph magically becomes a straight line for the next 23 years.
Call me a cynic, but I find graphs like this mostly useless and totally annoying.

If you're comparing grid power to home solar panels which cut out the grid, it's already cheaper over any remotely reasonable lifetime. This appears to be the costs for grid-connected larger scale solar generation, which competes within the wholesale market and obviously doesn't skip grid costs like a home kit.

A map like this made me realize something a couple years ago: I was very very close to visiting two antipodes on this planet on my visits to Peru and Cambodia. And if I ever go to Spain, that will be the second set of antipodes.

 

[Arwon]

Ooh I've been to Wellington and to Leon, very close to its antipode.

 

[JohannaK]

Certainly! Anybody been to Hawai'i and Botswana?

 

[Kyriakos]

Is it an actual map of antipodes, then?

If so, France seems to only have an antipode in the Pays de la Bete, or how that is spelled. Aliens
