    NSString *sectionTitle = [self tableView:tableView titleForHeaderInSection:section];

    // Create label with section title
    UILabel *label = [[[UILabel alloc] init] autorelease];
    label.frame = CGRectMake(20, 6, 300, 30);
    label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
    label.textColor = [UIColor colorWithHue:(136.0/360.0)  // Slightly bluish green
