Rocksteady's gorgeous-looking third Arkham game refines its open-world format a bit and lets you drive a whole hell of a lot of Batmobile.
It's squid kids and ink blasting abound in Nintendo's exceptionally fun new online shooter.
Mortal Kombat X moves forward with a snappier version of the previous game's fighting and some cool new characters, but the story and other features around the edges feel a bit rough in spots.

Released Feb 27, 2001
Cartoon characters are personas from cartoons, which are animated moving sequences that are usually drawn but can be "computer animated" and can come from television, movies, the web, or stated in the game. They can be humans, animals, or even things usually not thought as living.
This concept is for games where the main playable character is female.
These games are based off of an established license, such as a movie or comic. Examples are the James Bond and Spider-Man franchises.
A superhero is a fictional character of unprecedented physical prowess dedicated to acts of derring-do in the public interest.
Videogames that, for better or for worse, are based on an existing non-videogame franchise. Usually drawn from movies, tie-in games have also been made about TV shows, novels, and even one-hit wonder pop bands.
Some television shows are ripe for interactive adaptations. Like Grey's Anatomy, or The Young Ones.

Carmelo Anthony was on fire Tuesday night as he scored 50 points in stylish fashion, while leading the Knicks to their 9th win in a row a 102-90 past the Heat. As LeBron James didn't play due to a strained right hamstring, I'm sure many will question how much stock this performance holds when talking about this match-ups come playoff time. Either way it was fun to watch. -18/26 from the field - LeBron James & Dwayne Wade out with injuries - 27 points in the opening half - 7/10 3 Pt Article found on: Next Impulse Sports

Chase Budinger SF MIN 2 months ago
Budinger has exercised his player option for the 2015-2016 season to remain with the Timberwolves, Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports reports.
Budinger will earn $5MM to remain a member of the Timberwolves for at least one more season. The volume of injuries across Minnesota's roster late in the season allowed Budinger to fill a bigger role off the bench in the last two months of the season. He averaged 12.3 points over the last 21 games of the season.
Chase Budinger SF MIN 2 months ago
Budinger finished the 2014-15 season with averages of 6.8 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.0 assist in 19.2 minutes per game (67 games).
In his third year with the Timberwolves, Budinger was in and out of the rotation for the first few months of the season. His role seemed to change on a night-to-night basis, which likely impacted his ability to find a rhythm. His chance finally came late in the season when the Wolves encountered a number of key injuries. After seeing just 6.0 minutes per game in February, Budinger's workload jumped to 27.0 minutes in March and 33.9 in April. His numbers were impressive over that time, as he put up 12.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.5 assists while shooting just under 50 percent from the floor over the final 20 games of the season. Budinger's future with the Wolves is up in the air at this point, and he'll have a decision to make this summer facing a $5 million player option for the 2015-16 campaign.

Budinger (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game.
Budinger rolled his ankle Monday, and it sounds like there was never much of a chance that he'd play in the season finale.
Chase Budinger SF MIN 2 months ago
Budinger (ankle) is doubtful to play Wednesday.
Budinger was initially listed as questionable, but he's been downgraded to doubtful, and it seems quite unlikely that he takes the court after spraining his ankle Monday.
Chase Budinger SF MIN 2 months ago
Budinger (ankle) is officially questionable for Wednesday's regular season finale against the Raptors.
Budinger sprained his ankle in Monday's game, but still managed to log 30 minutes in the contest. Given the large number of injuries the team is currently dealing with, he may be pushed into action if at all possible.
Chase Budinger SF MIN 3 months ago
Budinger sprained his ankle in Monday's game against the Pelicans.
Budinger managed to play for 30 minutes in Monday's game but should be considered day-to-day moving forward. Minnesota lost their opportunity to play in the playoffs a while back so it would be surprising if Budinger risks further injury to play in the season finale against the Thunder on Wednesday.
Chase Budinger SF MIN 3 months ago
Budinger posted 23 points and four rebounds in 29 minutes of action Friday against the Rockets.
Budinger is averaging 16.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 1.4 steals over the last five games. He's made the most of Kevin Martin (hamstring) sitting, but it's hard to imagine him playing this well when Martin returns. Still, he's worth an add in 14-man leagues.
Chase Budinger SF MIN 3 months ago
Budinger posted 22 points, six rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one block in 40 minutes of action Wednesday against the Lakers.
Budinger made the most of Kevin Martin (hamstring) sitting, and was able to post a spectacular line. Still, he's not going to see 40 minutes a night moving forward, and his value is limited to 14-man leagues or deeper.
Chase Budinger SF MIN 3 months ago
Budinger scored 15 points (4-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT) with five assists, three rebounds and two steals in 39 minutes off the bench Monday.
The banged up 'Wolves have little choice but to give Budinger big minutes right now, and as a result he's managed to score in double digits in six straight games, averaging 13.7 points, 4.7 boards, 1.5 threes and 1.3 steals over that stretch. Until the team around him gets healthier, he'll have some value in the short term.
Chase Budinger SF MIN 3 months ago
Budinger scored 18 points with four rebounds in 26 minutes in Monday's loss to the Nets.
Budinger is getting significant minutes off the bench with five players sitting out with injuries or illness. He's played 19 or more minutes in three of the last four games. Budinger will likely head back to the bench when several players return, but he'll likely get significant minutes in the meantime.

ATLANTA -- He has the size and he has the arm and the athleticism, tools that had Logan Thomas billed as Virginia Tech's next great quarterback when he arrived in Blacksburg in 2009. The reality has been a career where 'potential' continues to be his most defining characteristic. While he's left his mark on the school record books and the NFL scouts still love him, Thomas' has been, more often than not, maddeningly frustrating for Hokies fans. But if there's a time when Thomas seems to live up to it all, it's against Georgia Tech. He and the Hokies beat the ACC Coastal Division rival for the third straight time 17-10 Thursday night to improve to 4-1 and 1-0 in league play. "I thought he was excellent ... his leadership, his throwing, his decision-making, being in control," said Hokies coach Frank Beamer. Thomas, a redshirt senior, came into Bobby Dodd Stadium completing 48.5 percent of his passes and had thrown two more interceptions (six) than touchdowns (four). His pass eff...

Sylvan Learning CtrRead MoreUnderstanding that each child learns differently, the staff members of Sylvan Learning Centers' numerous study centers design custom lesson programs. Based on the results of standardized testing, diagnostic tools, and one-on-one interviews, the staff works with students to help them firmly grasp basic skills such as reading, writing, math, and how to remember facts without tattooing them to their chests. Programs target students in kindergarten through grade 12 and mold to various learning styles, helping kids to feel more comfortable in the classroom. Afterschool or summer classes can ready high-school students for the rigors of the ACT or the SAT, or they can help students to wow college admissions officers with their superior writing skills, exemplary test scores, and willingness to arm-wrestle the school mascot.1496 Klondike Rd SWConyers, GA US

Great location, difficult parkingPosted Jun 30, 2015
There was not enough parking for all guests, but parking fee was reimbursed when we had to find street parking

great place with a wonderful, relaxed feelPosted May 5, 2015
Pros: Location, grounds and style
Cons: the tile in the bathroom on the floor looks to need some fixing and it had some wear in the overall appearance of the room.
Location: Great town and this hotel is right in the heart of it. I liked that it is off the beaten path just enough to be quiet and relaxing-
We had a wonderful evening at the hotel - great breakfast and a very quiet room. We loved the decor and the grounds of the inn. It was a nice place to stay and a great value for the caliber of room we selected.

Loved this HotelPosted Apr 13, 2015
Pros: Everything!
Location: Centrally located and within walking distance of all the stores and restaurants in Sausalito.
We stayed in Room 206 which has a magnificent view of San Francisco and the Bay. Gorgeous and very romantic at night. The accommodations were perfect. The staff were friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was wonderful and the evening wine and cheese spread was just right. The hotel is close (walking distance) to everything you want to do in Sausalito and the hotel provides parking (which is must in this area) for $20 a day.

Hyggelig atmosfære, roligt miljø - vin og ost/frugt om eftermiddagen ved pejsen forstærker stemningen. Morgenmad i den hyggelige stue er et skønt skue med farverige friske frugter. Vi har været her før - og kommer tilbage til "vort rum" med udsigt over bugten til SF - betagende dag som nat (for ikke at tale om solopgang fra vort vindue".

Nice hotel with many nice featuresPosted Mar 26, 2015
Room was nice. Bathroom was a bit dated and fixtures a bit challenging. Great location. Best feature was the wine and cheese in the evening. Worst was the noisiness of the room. I would stay again but in a room not in the main part of the hotel.

Nice location and boutique spacePosted Mar 10, 2015
Pros: attentiveness to guests and friendly staff
Cons: Internet service
Location: Location was the best thing, just in the prime shopping and ferry area.
Everything was very good with the visit overall. The staff and everyone was very helpful with directions and just nice conversation. Nice wine and cheese in the evening!! Nice setting. My room was on the lower floor and there is a fair amount of noise from the stairs above. Also, did not have consistent internet and phone service from my room.

Not that exciting. So-so body. There are far better male models out there that could do the underwear justice.
I think it's a great body. I'd rather cuddle up to that than a guy with 5% body fat…
He is a very sexy young man…
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee.
Not ugly, but not overwhelmingly attractive.
Eh. My guess is not enough photoshop to make him look drop-dead-gorgeous like most models.
whatever you all think his level of attractiveness is…….you know he'd be a good time…..
There's nothing about (or in) those drawers that stands out. Did he just go for an ice cold swim?
This just proves how awfully fake the American and British music scenes have become in 2013. One minute you're purporting to be a singer, the next you're advertising underwear.
How do you spell "celebrities in search of money-making opportunities"?
It's a clearly a low budget photo shoot. I clicked over to the link that has some more photos. He's sitting with his left arm up and his hand on his forehead in all but one photo. Clearly not a high budget photographer here! I'm sure he'd be just as attractive as any model out there if there was more production in the photos.
Not a flawless body, and not the most "beautiful" man I've seen, but he is sex on a stick so more power to him, and them.
This is perfection.
Is he suppose to look red necky hanging out in his underwear on his indoor/outdoor furniture. They should have him getting pulled over naked by fake police in his next photo shoot. Bad boy bad boy whatcha gonna do whatcha gonna do when they come for you.
I feel sorry for some of you sad ba$tards who have to have a man with a perfect body and a perfect face to have a good time in the sack.
That underwear looks gross!!
@DRJWL: If you put yourself out there as an underwear model, you open yourself up to criticism.
LOL, he doesn't even lift.
Seems pretty pedestrian to me.
I'd think the Honey BooBoo family could come up with something better than "Hey, let's put this chair in the backyard."
So is the gig with The Wanted not doing so well, that he needs extra income? lol I kinda love that The Wanted, this guy specifically, tries to drum up headlines by feuding with One Direction – it's probably the only way they get noticed.
I agree with you BRIAN.
I think he's hot. Not pretentiously buff, not necessarily well-endowed. Just an average guy. I'll take him.
There you go. Use the better looking guys from Lock-Up to sell underwear.
harsh comments from losers behind their keyboards, what else is new? truth is, he's far more attractive and successful than any of you.
Kinda soft for an underwear model. Great face, he should have dieted. Meanwhile, I'm eating an apple turnover right now, it's great!
Why all the hate? He's a nice-looking young man. Furthermore, The Wanted is one of the boy bands that has spoken out loudly and publicly in support of gay rights and gay marriage. More power and good luck to all of them!
most "gay,fancy" underwear in underwearable! I'll keep my Hanes, but I's share a pair with him!
I think it is great to see a more realistic normal type of body in an underwear add then what is normally shown. I find this to be much more attractive. we all have types that we find desireable but there really isn't any need to put someone down if you are not attracted to their body type. can we just be a bit kinder to each other, even on the web.
My body is way much than poor George! But i give him respect 4 trying.

Guardiola highlights Bayern's control in second leg against Arsenal
Mar 11, 2014, 8:06 PM EDT
On Monday, Bayern Munich head coach Pep Guardiola called for aggression while insisting his team would try to win Tuesday's UEFA Champions League match against Arsenal. The match at the Allianz, however, played out much differently.
Bayern, looking to become the first team in 23 years to repeat as European champions, were able to control the match from its opening moments, due in part to Arsenal's willingness to sit back and wait for opportunities to counter. Even after the game opened up, the Gunners never got within the two-goal deficit they were handed in London, with Bastian Schweinsteiger's second half opener temporarily putting Arsène Wenger's side down three.
Ultimately, after Lukas Podolski pulled his former teammate's goal back, Arsenal left the Allianz as they started: two worse than Bayern. In the process, we saw the degree to which Bayern can dictate a match when given no other task but hold on.
"Arsenal had no chances in the first half. They defended with many players and we controlled the match," Guadriola explained to Sky Sports Germany, "except for the goal we conceded and that could have been a foul."
"They were better for eight minutes in the first leg … For the rest of the time we were superior."
Bayern held 67 percent of the ball and limited Arsenal to three shots on target, half as many as the Bavarians put on Lukasz Fabianski. Over the course of two legs, Arsenal was outshot 41-15 and had only 27 percent of the ball.
"We played on a very high level, Guardiola explained, "and now we are in the quarterfinals."
There, Bayern will be heavy favorites to claim a sixth European title, but with no limits on which teams can be drawn together, there's no guarantee the quarterfinals will be as smooth as the Round of 16. With Real Madrid continuing to improve, there's at least one other team that can serve as this year's Borussia Dortmund and at least challenge the world's best team.

Looking to turn a new page in a new year.
I am very down to earth, easy going and I like to make people laugh. I come from a large family being the youngest of five, I love the outdoors, (camping, fishing) eating out, Sushi... taking road trips I will be honest, I am new to this whole "meeting on line" thing.

6. The apparatus of claim 1 herein the heater control circuit comprises a balanced operational amplifier.
This invention relates to calorimetric analytical instruments, and more particularly to a heater control circuit for a differential scanning calorimeter.
Differential thermal techniques generally consist of applying heat simultaneously to a sample material and a reference material and measuring a parameter, such as differential power input, as the sample goes through a physical or chemical change. In differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), differential power between the sample and reference is measured. The differential power represents the difference in energy required to maintain the sample and reference in accord with a heating or cooling program.
In prior art DSC instruments, the heaters were driven in a time-division multiplexed mode. For approximately one-half of the time the heaters supplied average power in order to maintain the average temperature of the sample holders at the set-point temperature, while for the remainder of the time the heaters were driven in such a way as to provide differential power, in order to null the temperature difference between the sample holders. The multiplexing was done at a high enough frequency, typically 600 Hz, so that the AC components of the heater power were effectively eliminated by the thermal time constant of the sample holder.
The prior art arrangement had a number of disadvantages. A transformer coupling was required for the differential power control, and accurately matched power rectifiers were required for the average power control circuit. There was also the problem of AC coupling between the high-voltage heater wiring and the low-noise temperature-sensing circuit.
In addition, since the sensors are necessarily configured in an AC bridge circuit, which obviously must operate at a frequency different from the heater drive frequency, it was necessary to demodulate the two temperature error signals, provide low-pass filtering, and then modulate the error signals at the heater frequency.
An object of the invention is to overcome or reduce the disadvantages of the prior art instruments.
Another object of the invention is to generate sample heater voltage and reference heater voltage in a differential scanning calorimeter in such a way that average heater power and differential heater power are accurately and independently controlled.
The foregoing and other objects are achieved by the provision of a new and improved control circuit for a differential scanning calorimeter instrument which includes sample heater means, reference heater means, means for generating a sample heater DC voltage and means for generating a reference heater DC voltage. A balanced operational amplifier arrangement is provided which includes means for controlling differential heater voltage and means for independently controlling average heater voltage, whereby average heater power and differential heater power are independently controlled.
According to one aspect of the invention, means are provided for measuring differential power.
According to another aspect of the invention, means are provided for controlling minimum heater power.
This new and improved heater control circuit eliminates the prior art requirements for a transformer and matched rectifiers, and the requirement for modulation of the error signals at the heater frequency, and relaxes the specification for unwanted AC signal coupling between heater and sensor circuits.
There has thus been outlined rather broadly the more important features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are, of course, additional features of the invention that will be described more fully hereinafter. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception on which this disclosure is based may readily be utilized as the basis for the designing of other circuitry for carrying out the purposes of the invention. It is important, therefore, that this disclosure be regarded as including such equivalent circuitry as do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention.
Several embodiments of the invention have been chosen for purposes of illustration and description, and are shown in the accompanying drawings forming a part of the specification, wherein:
FIG. 1 is a simplified vertical sectional view of a portion of an analytical instrument incorporating the invention; and
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a circuit according to the invention.
FIG. 1 illustrates a portion 10 of a DSC, which can be used to implement the present invention. This instrument measures the differential power required to keep both sample and reference sensors 10, 12 at the same temperature throughout the DSC experiment. The apparatus, as illustrated, is described and explained in basic terms in E. S. Watson et al., "A Differential Scanning Calorimeter for Quantitative Differential Analysis", Anal. Chem. 36(7), 1233-1238 (1964), which is incorporated herein by reference.
In FIG. 1, reference and sample containers 14 and 16, respectively, are mounted on platforms 18 and 20. The reference generally is a standard (or simply the empty container) and the sample is a material having some characteristic parameter such as specific heat to be compared with that of the standard.
The reference 14 and the sample 16 are subjected to a programmed heating or cooling program, in accord with a prescribed function, through a process of programmed and balanced heating. The programmed heating or cooling run subjects the sample and reference to an externally applied disturbance such as heat which induces a change in temperature.
Both the programmed heating and the balanced heating are performed through the reference heater 22 and the sample heater 24 in the reference and sample bases 18 and 20. The system of FIG. 1 is divided into two separate control loops, one loop for average temperature control and the other for differential temperature control. In the average temperature control loop, the programmer 26 provides a signal which is proportional to the desired temperature of the sample holder 16 and the reference holder 14. The programmer signal is compared in the average temperature comparator 30 with signals received from resistance thermometers 12 and 10. If the average temperature is greater than the temperature called for by the programmer 26, then the power supply to the sample and reference heaters 24, 22 is decreased, and vice versa if the average temperature is less than that called for by the programmer 26. This is effected through heater control circuit 42, which receives the average temperature error signal (TP-TAV) from the average temperature comparator 30 and provides driving signals to the sample and reference heaters 24, 22.
In the differential temperature control loop, temperature signals received from the resistance thermometers 10, 12 are relayed to the differential temperature amplifier 32. The differential temperature amplifier 32 responds to a disparity in the sample and reference temperature signals by adjusting the differential power increment fed to the sample and reference heaters 24,22 to correct the temperature difference. This is effected through heater control circuit 42, which receives the (dT) error signal (TS-TR) from the differential temperature amplifier 32 and provides driving signals to the sample and reference heaters 24, 22.
FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating circuitry 42 of the invention.
The (dT) error signal (TS-TR) from the differential temperature amplifier 32 is applied to the inverting input of a first or instrumentation amplifier 52, with the other input grounded. The output of the first amplifier 52 is inverted by a second amplifier 54 with a gain of -1, as determined by resistors 56 and 58, and the output of this second amplifier is amplified by a fourth amplifier 60 and power transistor 62 with a gain of -10, as determined by resistors 64 and 66. The power transistor 62 has a (+30 V) voltage input 63. The output voltage from this stage appears across the sample heater (RS) 24.
The output voltage from the second amplifier 54 is also applied through resistor 68 to a third or inverting amplifier 70, with a gain of -1, as determined by resistors 72 and 68, and the output of the third amplifier 70 is applied to an output stage comprising a fifth amplifier 73 and a second power transistor 74, with a gain of -10, which drives the reference heater (RR) 22. The second power transistor 74 has a (+30 V) voltage input 75. Thus, the sample heater voltage is (+10) times the output voltage of the first amplifier 52, while the reference heater voltage is (-10) times this voltage. The voltage gain from the (dT) input terminal 32 to the heaters 22 and 24 is determined by the overall negative feedback through resistors 76 and 78. As a result, if the input voltage is +1 V, the sample and reference heaters 24 and 22 are driven at -0.05 V and +0.05 V, respectively, with respect to their average voltage. It will be appreciated that the circuit as shown cannot supply negative voltages to the heaters. As will be discussed more fully hereinafter, the heaters are always driven at a positive average voltage, and the circuit described above provides a differential heater voltage, and thus generates differential heater power.
The average temperature error signal (TP-TAV), where (TP) is the preset temperature and (TAV) is the average temperature, from average temperature computer 30, is applied through resistors 80 and 82 to the second and third amplifiers 54 and 70. The gain of the second amplifier 54 is (-1), as determined by resistors 58 and 80, and thus the voltage gain from the input to the sample heater 24 is (+10).
The gain of the third amplifier 70 with respect to the input signal is (-2) as determined by resistors 72 and 82. However, the additional input to the third amplifier 70 from the second amplifier 54, via resistor 68, effectively cancels half of this gain, so that the outputs of the second and third amplifiers 54 and 70 are equal, and as a result the voltage gain to both heaters 24 and 22 is (+10).
An essential feature of the average heater control system is that there is a very small differential power component associated with the average power. In the circuit described herein, all the resistors have a tolerance of 0.1%, and therefore there could be a voltage gain mismatch of 0.8% in the worst case. However, the differential voltage control loop, with a loop gain of 2000, reduces the heater voltage mismatch to negligible proportions.
To determine the differential power (dW) generated in the heaters, a circuit 86 is provided to multiply the total heater current (IH) by the differential heater voltage (dV):
Resistor 84 is a one-ohm current-monitoring resistor, developing a voltage (VI) proportional to heater current. After amplification by a factor of 10, this voltage is converted to digital form, and multiplied in firmware by a voltage proportional to the differential temperature error signal, which in turn is proportional to differential heater voltage.
In prior art instruments, differential power control was completely independent of the average power control system. Thus, it was possible to disable the latter entirely, for instance by attempting to program the average temperature down at a rate greater than the natural cooling rate of the sample holders, without affecting the measurement of differential power.
According to the system of the present invention, without multiplexing, the heaters cannot be allowed to turn off, since this would disable the differential power control system. Therefore an auxiliary loop 88 is enabled whenever the heater current, as measured by (VI), decreases to a preset value (VP). This loop maintains this preset value of heater current until the average temperature falls below the set point temperature (TP) when the main loop is enabled again.
Although particular embodiments of the invention are herein disclosed for purposes of explanation, various modifications thereof, after study of this specification, will be apparent to those skilled in the art to which the invention pertains.

The average woman has a small chance of getting
breast cancer and an even smaller chance of getting
ovarian cancer.
But if someone in your family has had breast or ovarian cancer, your
chances of getting those cancers may be higher. And if you have 2 or 3 relatives who have had these cancers, your chances may be even higher.
If you have a
family history of breast or ovarian cancer, it may be important to you to find
out how high your risk is so that you can decide whether to do something to
lower that risk, like take medicine or have surgery.
The best way
to find out about your risk is to talk to your doctor. But you can get some
idea of how high your risk is by knowing your family history and understanding
how it relates to breast and ovarian cancers.
What is a family history?
Having a family history means that you
have one or more blood relatives with breast or ovarian cancer.
Some family histories are stronger than others. Here's what
determines whether your family history is strong:
In the tables below, the figures are only rough estimates
from research studies. Lifetime risk means the chance that you will get these
cancers sometime during your life. These numbers may not apply to you, but they
can give you an idea of how high your risk may be.
Average women
12 out of 100 women will get
breast cancer.1
1 first-degree relative with breast cancer
24 out of 100 women will get
breast cancer.2
2 first-degree relatives with breast cancer
36 out of 100 women will get
breast cancer.2
See a picture that may help you understand how much
having a family history can increase your risk for breast cancer.
1 out of 100 women will get
ovarian cancer.3
1 first-degree relative with ovarian cancer
5 out of 100 women will get
ovarian cancer.3
2 or more relatives with ovarian cancer
About 7 out of 100 women
will get ovarian cancer.3
See a picture that may help you understand how much
having a family history can increase your risk for ovarian cancer.
Your doctor
will ask about at least three generations of your family history and tell you
how much it affects your risk. Your doctor may also send you to a
genetic counselor, someone who is trained to help
people understand their risks for certain diseases.
What is a BRCA gene change?
Sometimes a very
strong family history is caused by a mutated
gene that runs in the family.
BRCA1 and
BRCA2 are genes that normally help control cell growth. But an inherited
change, called a mutation, in one of these genes makes you much more likely to
get breast and ovarian cancers. BRCA (say "BRAH-kuh") stands for BReast CAncer.
A BRCA gene test is a blood test that can tell you and your doctor whether you
have one of these changed genes.
Having a BRCA gene change is
pretty rare. Most women with a strong family history of breast or ovarian
cancer don't have a BRCA gene change.
Before you have a gene
test, you will need to see a genetic counselor. Counseling will help you make
an informed decision about whether to have a BRCA gene test. It is often
covered by insurance, but check with your insurance company to find out for
Ashkenazi Jews are more likely to have one of these BRCA
genes. Some experts recommend genetic counseling for Ashkenazi women if they
have one or both of the following:4
If you are not of Ashkenazi Jewish descent, some experts recommend genetic
counseling if you have one or more of the following:4
In the table below, the figures are only rough estimates from
research studies. Lifetime risk means the chance that you will get this cancer
sometime during your life. These numbers may not apply to you, but they can
give you an idea of how high your risk may be.
Breast cancer risk
Ovarian cancer risk
12 out of 100 women will get
breast cancer.
1 out of 100 women will get
ovarian cancer.
BRCA gene carriers
35 to 84 out of 100 will get
breast cancer.4
15 to 40 out of 100 will get
ovarian cancer.5
In the table above, the range for BRCA gene carriers is very
broad. That's because different studies have had different results. More study
is needed to get a better idea of just how high the risk is for these
Pictures may help you understand these numbers better. See
the following pictures to get a better idea of how much a BRCA gene change
increases your risk for:
If you are worried that you may have a BRCA gene change, talk
to your doctor.
How can you find out what effect your family history has on your risk?
The best way to find out is to
see your doctor. Your doctor will ask you for as much information about your
relatives as you can give (for example, what kind of cancer they had, if any;
how old they were when they were diagnosed; and, if they have died, how old
they were when they died).
People often don't have a lot of
information about all of their relatives. The more you can find out, the better
your doctor can help you figure out how strong your family history is.
Your doctor may send you to a genetic counselor, who can help you learn
how high your cancer risk is. After counseling, you may decide to have a BRCA
gene test.
Finding out how high your risk is can help you make
important decisions about your health. Some women decide to take extra steps to
prevent breast and ovarian cancer, such as having checkups more often, taking
anti-cancer medicine, or having surgery to remove the breasts, the ovaries, or
