PlayStation Home, a community based service created by Sony Computer Entertainment's London and Cambridge studios, launched to the public in the fall of 2008. Since its inception, it has received a massive amount of new spaces, updates, and features. One of the most robust spaces, EA's Sports Complex, has attracted many Home users in part because of the assortment of mini games and free content that they offer. Today I am glad to announce that I have the Lead Producer of the EA Sports Complex with us to answer some of our questions.
I would first like to introduce you to Rob Burnett, Senior Producer of EA Sports and Lead Producer of EA Sports content in Home. Rob Burnett was nice enough to take some time out of his busy schedule to answer our questions.
Now let's get to the interview shall we?
TheGamerAccess.com: I think the EA space is by far the best, what other things do you have planned for the complex and is there anything soon that you can reveal?
Rob Burnett: On July 30, we had another update and we have a few new features. The poker community has grown so fast on Home we want a way to allow people to play and get recognized at their level of play. We launched the black high roller table upstairs in the EA SPORTS Golf Complex. This table pays out a whopping 100,000 points for the winner of an 8 player game (this is ten times the previous maximum payout.) If we ran a single leader board the top 10 would be filled exclusively with black table players. So to make sure players at the beginner and intermediate levels also have the ability to compete we are creating three separate rankings; one for green, red, and black. The season for each of these rankings systems can also be set separately for each level of play. The green tables will see the boards get reset every 2 weeks, while the black tables score boards will run for months.
TheGamerAccess.com: Do you plan on making an EA apartment that users can purchase? Maybe multiple apartments geared towards specific games?
Rob Burnett: I think a personal space with a sports theme or even a skybox would be a great idea! The first step in this process actually happened on July 30 when we launch the EA SPORTS Pro Shop on the first floor of the EA SPORTS Racing Complex. You can now visit our space and pickup a complete boxing outfit for you avatar to celebrate the launch of FIGHT NIGHT Round 4. In the future we plan to launch new content including personal spaces.
TheGamerAccess.com: Your mini games have been really fun; do you plan on making spaces for Madden and NBA Live?
Rob Burnett: We do .. but we will need to make sure we have time to do them right!
TheGamerAccess.com: How do you feel about game launching in Home? Do you plan on supporting this feature with future EA titles?
Rob Burnett: We are looking into this now. Turns out this is much harder than it looks for our sports titles since they offer so many options and requires a large amount of assets and resources to do it properly.
TheGamerAccess.com: If you guys ever do utilize game launching, can we ever expect to see tournaments held through Home for games like Fight Night, Madden, NBA Live, etc…?
Rob Burnett: We are actually doing early development work on a tournament system for Home now. This system will be implemented around the Poker game in Home so we can flush out all the details and user flows.
TheGamerAccess.com: Do you feel that Home is living up to its initial expectations? Do you think that can or will change?
Rob Burnett: Our participation in Home has exceeded many of our expectations. The poker game in particular has garnered a very loyal following and has generated much more traffic than initially expected. It is because of this that we have continually engaged the community to find out how to make the experience better. It is great to be able to work in a living environment like Home and not be restricted by annual publishing windows for updating the experience. Our development team for Home spends a much great percentage of their time focused on game play and game tuning, and we are afforded the luxury of handing off environment, rendering, sound, and avatar animation to the Sony Home team.
Home will also continue to evolve. The platform is extremely powerful and we are learning new tricks every day to improve the experience in our spaces. The most important aspect of Home is we are learning about how our community wants to interact with each other in this space. As Sony has said Home is a 3D social community and this is very true in relation to our games as well. Our poker game would be a very different experience if bystanders didn't exist. The community that exists around the tables can be even more fun that playing the game on the tables. I visited the space a couple days ago and the players on the red table were actually using the chat system to play 'Name that tune' with the bystanders around the game. It was hilarious!
TheGamerAccess.com: How has Sony helped with the development of the EA Home space?
Rob Burnett: Sony has been very supportive of our work in Home. They have done a great job creating development tools, and iterating on them to improve functionality and stability. The Sony Home teams in North America and Europe have both made themselves available to help develop launch and maintain the Home content. Another important task which Sony takes very seriously is moderation of the space. Sony does a great job responding to issues. It can be very tough to manage a virtual community with such a diverse audience. Not only is running in Asia, North America, and Europe but Home also appeals to a very broad demographic reach. Young students, 'work at home' mom's, professionals and hard-core gamers are all getting sucked into this beast.
TheGamerAccess.com: If you could change one thing about Home, what would it be?
Rob Burnett: I would add more muscles to my avatar, my guy is way too skinny!
TheGamerAccess.com: Have you guys at EA ever thought about integrating your games with Home in ways such as winning so many online games in Madden may unlock a football jersey/uniform?
Rob Burnett: We have a number ideas being both floated and developed internally, … but nothing I can talk about yet.
TheGamerAccess.com: Have you ever thought about using the EA Home space as a hub for other games that may receive their own space?
Rob Burnett: If I understand the question we have actually started doing that already. The vision for EA SPORTS in Home really has 2 development phases. The first phase focused on the creation of a general space which could be used to support all products in our catalog. The second phase is to start creating title specific spaces. The first of these spaces is the Club Fight Night arena. This space was built using assets taken directly from the PS3 hit game. We have even worked with the Fight Night team to include 6 music tracks form the game in the space. The interior of the club is split into 2 zones; the left half features 3 tracks from the game, and the right half features 3 different tracks from the game.
In the future we are looking to build out additional spaces that focus specifically on individual titles. These areas will all include a combination of mini-game interaction and game information. These spaces will be a great place to go to find other sports fans with similar interests.

Letters seized from Maoist 'commander' Ghasi alias Chenda Bhushanam, who was arrested in April 2011, indicate that Maoists were in touch with at least an MLA and MP of the Biju Janata Dal and the Pottangi Congress MLA.
The letters were seized from Ghasi and produced in the trial court as part of the seizure list. A top 'commander' of the Andhra Orissa Border Special Zonal Committee, who carried a reward of Rs 10 lakh on his head, the 46-year-old Ghasi has over 100 cases against his name.
Two letters in Oriya seized from him, copies of which are with The Indian Express, indicate that Maoists were in touch with Koraput MP Jayram Pangi and Koraput MLA Raghuram Padal apart from Congress MLA Ramachandra Kadam. This is the first documentary evidence of correspondence between Maoists and elected Orissa leaders.
In the letter written in February 2011, on a CPI (Maoist) letterhead, Daya, secretary of the Koraput-Srikakulam Divisional Committee of the Maoists, asked MP Pangi, MLA Padal, Laxmipur MLA Jhina Hikaka and a BJD leader from Pottangi, Prafulla Pangi, to attend their meeting in the Narayanpatna block. Since 2009, the block, which sits at the tri-junction of Orissa, Andhra Pradesh and Chhattisgarh, has been a Maoist stronghold, with rebels crossing over to bordering states after ambushing police.
"You BJD people have to attend the meeting. Please go and listen to what people are saying about the government. If you think us as your people, then please come or else don't. The district administration and politicians should think of land problems, Dalits and tribals lodged in jail and difficulties faced by villagers in areas around police camps. Please go, see, listen and understand and try to solve the problem after discussions with local people. If you go to Narayanpatna, your future would be bright," said the letter sent by Daya.

The starting lineup is essentially a traditional 5-2 look, which really shouldn't be much of a surprise since FSU will play in a two-linebacker set most of the year (which is why Jimbo Fisher mentioned earlier in the preseason that the Mike and Will linebackers are basically "interchangeable" in this defense). Those ostensible position changes are more surprising, however.
Surprising, that is, until one looks a little closer. To my eye, this defensive depth chart looks very much like a "best eleven." That is, these are the best eleven defensive players from camp, and Pruitt has simply chosen the lineup (and "positions") to put his best players on the field.
As we have already discussed this preseason, Pruitt's defense in many respects eliminates the idea of "positions" and thinks more in terms of players and roles. So if Dan Hicks is one of your eleven best in a base 4-3/3-4/5-2 look but you have other defensive linemen you also want on the field, you put him at the Sam linebacker spot that in most alignments is essentially a hybrid end/linebacker anyway. (That's not to discount Hicks' movement skills, as Jimbo Fisher reminded reporters after practice that Hicks had been a very good hurdler in high school.)
In "under" 4-3 fronts, the Sam lines up on the line of scrimmage anyway, as he does in many 3-4 and all 5-2 alignments. In that position, Hicks' responsibilities are basically the same as what they would be as a defensive end—which might drop into coverage in Pruitt's zone-blitz scheme anyway.
Likewise Goldman and McAllister being listed at end, each of whom will spend a good bit of time at the 2/3 techniques and the 5 technique throughout the year, depending on the front. Again, it's about roles and techniques rather than positions in Pruitt's defense, which will use multiple fronts and alignments to create confusion and maximize matchups for the defense.
So this depth chart is not exactly meaningless, but it does little more than communicate who Pruitt feels are his eleven best players. I'm sure that right now this would be the opening a base defense against traditional 21 (two backs and a tight end) personnel. But you can bet there are numerous other internal depth charts depending on other personnel groupings, with as many as seven defensive backs and as few as two defensive linemen on the field at once.
If an opposing offense goes to 11 personnel (three wide), expect one or two of those defensive linemen (still including Hicks as a defensive lineman) to head to the sideline, with a coverage player taking over at the "Star" (Sam) role and perhaps another defensive back stepping into the "Money" (Will) spot, with Christian Jones sliding down to one of the defensive ends.
The possibilities are almost limitless with FSU's personnel, but you can be certain that Karlos Williams (a backup in this depth chart) will see lots of time at the Money spot, that Christian Jones will have a pass rush role on passing downs, and that Lamarcus Joyner will likely log more time in the Star role than he will as an outside corner.
What then can we take away from this depth chart? First of all, it gives a good sense of which players the coaching staff believes performed best in camp. Based on the depth chart, it looks like P.J. Williams, Eddie Goldman, Hicks, Nile Lawrence-Stample, and true freshman Jalen Ramsey had especially good camps.
Williams and Ramsey have protypical size for outside corners in Pruitt's scheme and apparently performed well enough to be in the starting rotation (Ramsey appears to be a co-starter in the Nickel or Dime role). This confirms what Williams showed in the spring game, when he was FSU's best cover corner, displaying what I believe to be potential first-round skills.
Hicks was good enough to make room for himself even if that involves a so-called position change (while the young linebackers were simply not as impressive). The light obviously has gone on for Goldman, who made room for himself at a position most had penciled Hicks into—ahead of redshirt senior Demonte McAllister, who was terrific last year and in the spring.
In terms of how this will shake out on Saturdays, I expect those players listed at LE, DT, and NG to rotate quite a bit, with a good bit of movement between the three spots. "Linebackers" Hicks and Jones will put their hand on the ground to rush the passer in certain situations. And we're going to see a lot of defensive backs on the field at once, with Pruitt favoring the bigger corners on the outside.
Either way, expect a lot of variety from FSU in terms of fronts, something we'll cover in our next article on the defense.

Time to unleash your brilliant, authentic best ...
You know what happens when you've had the stuffing knocked out of you for so long that it feels normal? You become lost. You stop expressing yourself. In life and at work, you stop being you.
I help people find a new normal, and businesses find a place where their people are set free.
It's a place where you don't have to make the compromises that keep the real you subdued. Where instead of postponing and self-sabotaging, you feel able to confront your fear and express yourself. It's a place where you create flow – that energising sweet spot where you can't help but let your brilliance loose.

I hope this message finds you doing very well. I am having issues with the replica watches sale - my last order (14326930)... The watch looks fantastic but it keeps coming apart. The day I received the replica watches sale, a pin fell out of it and I paid a watch repair shop $20.00 to put a new pin in. Then, a week later another piece came off of the bracelet. Again, I like the way it looks but it keeps falling apart. I will gladly return the replica watches sale for another one. Please let me know the procedure for this... Just so you know, the Patek Philippe is working excellent!!
Have watched video. The clasp on the replica watches sale supplied does not operate by the same method. I have managed to open the clasp with great difficulty and considerable force is needed to close it. This would make the fake watches sale un-usable. I am happy with the quality of the fake watches sale but the bracelet is of poor quality. The cost of returning the watch to the ROC is too much, so I am going to have to purchase a new fake watches sale bracelet in US. Overall, I am disappointed with this transaction.
I bought a replica Rolex watch order no 1648. It was shipped out the 6th oct I came to the US on holiday on the 18th oct. The watch had not arrived at my house.It is now the 14th of December my son as been to my house four times and the replica watches sale as still not been deliverd I have texed you four times. There as to be a problem with the people delivering in the US. Could you please check into this and send me a reply.

Safety checks at eleven Queensland aerodromes
Special flight path safety checks are being carried out at eleven Queensland aerodromes in August 2015.
The checks are being conducted by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority to make sure instrument procedure flight paths at the aerodromes continue to be safe.
Queensland aerodromes being checked between 6 and 15 August 2015 are:
- Barcaldine
- Bowen
- Burketown
- Camooweal
- Charleville
- Cooktown
- Georgetown
- Hughendon
- Longreach
- Mornington Island
- Winton
A twin-engine Cessna Conquest aircraft will be used to carry out the safety checks within an area up to 35 kilometres from the aerodromes.
Low-level flying is an essential part of the safety exercise, with the aircraft down as low as several hundred feet at times.
Local residents may notice an uncommon flying pattern, but this is to make sure obstacles are accurately marked on charts and no new obstacles exist. Obstacles can be towers, trees, masts or buildings that can be a danger to aircraft.
The Civil Aviation Safety Authority requires aerodrome flight path safety checks to be carried out every three years to maintain a high level of air safety at all aerodromes.
If poor weather or other factors do not allow the safety checks to go ahead on the planned days they will be carried out as soon as possible.
CASA has contracted the operation of the special check flights out to Corporate Air, one of Australia's largest and longest established aviation services providers.

Şahan Gökbakar
|Şahan Gökbakar
22 October 1980
İzmir, Turkey
|Actor, Comedian
Şahan Gökbakar (born 22 October 1980 in İzmir, Turkey) is a Turkish comedian and film actor.
Early career[edit]
Gökbakar grew up in Turkey's capital, Ankara, attending the primary school and high school attached to the Middle East Technical University (ODTÜ). After completing high school in 1997, he went on to study music and visual arts at Bilkent University's Faculty of Fine Arts in Ankara. He graduated in 2002, with a GPA that ranked him fourth out of a total class of 350. Gökbakar's early life was overshadowed by the death of his father in a traffic accident when he was eight years old.
After university, Gökbakar tried his luck in some promo elections and as a result was given the opportunity to make his own program on TV8, a Turkish satellite TV channel. His first show was called "Zibin" (a Turkish word for "very soft undershirt for a baby"). The show received good ratings and was followed by another called "Zoka" ("trap" or "bait") and finally a show called "Dikkat Şahan çıkabilir" ("Watch out: Şahan May Appear") which established him in a long line of nationally famous burlesque comedians stretching back to the 19th century. But Şahan Gökbakar's humor is focused mainly on 21st century societal conventions governing Turkey's leisure and consumerist classes, and the ways in which they conflict with the views of the uneducated outsider who is often unaware of such conventions.
Recep İvedik[edit]
Recep İvedik, the eponymous protagonist of the popular film series, had according to Hürriyet Daily News reviewer Emrah Güler, enjoyed some moderate fame as the anti-hero in comedian Şahan Gökbakar's sketch shows, generating a modest fan group on YouTube. Gökbakar teamed up with his younger brother Togan Gökbakar, who first made his name as a director with some short films and had always showed an interest in working with his older brother, to turn the character into a cash cow with a series of films, which proved to be the highest grossing movies in the respective years of their release and at the same time the most loathed films to come to screens in the minds of critics and intellectuals.[1][2]
Used to getting his way everywhere by shouting, raging, and threats of physical violence, İvedik is the ultimate embodiment of incivility in a consumerist age, unable to operate a hotel door key or use its bathroom, but with an underlying desire to conform to his own naive and outdated conceptions of moral and social rules. İvedik could possibly be taken as emblematic of the traditionalist forces making inroads into the lives of Turkey's westernized middle classes, but Gökbakar only hints at this possible interpretation. (Another interpretation would be that the main traits of İvedik are derived from those of characters in Turkey's traditional Karagöz shadow puppet plays). This film, like Turkish burlesque film comedy extracts draws its fun (and it is extremely funny for most viewers) from representing a collision between conventional stock-in-trade figures and an outsider who undermines them, rather than from satire: in other words it does not have a social message, beyond showing that attempts to lead a conventional life are more fragile than they seem and easily upset by the arrival of an uncivil intruder. İvedik despite his black beard and eastern clothes (at one point in the film he makes his bathroom towel into a turban) is more urban than rural, has an email address, and speaks at least a few words of international English. Much of his humour arises from his lack of self-awareness and inability to perceive the reactions of others to him. He contrasts strongly with Turkish burlesque protagonists in earlier generations of films who tended to be deferential, physically slight, and to wriggle their way out of difficult situations and who operated against a backdrop of a much less economically advanced society. There are other indicators of social change. "Recep İvedik" has much noise, angry shouting, appalling behaviour, and abusive swear-words which were never heard in public in Turkey before. Though the plot is flimsy, Gökbakar's acting brings İvedik side-splittingly to life and one has little or no sense of the actor creating him.
We are uneasy that our district is being mentioned by a character like İvedik, proclaimed Abdullah Yılmaz, president of the Youth Council for Güngören District, the district of Istanbul where Recep İvedik is portrayed as residing, Güngören is a district where educated and intellectual people live. It is not right to associate Güngören with an impolite character who does not know any manners, he continued before stating that the council would take action to prevent the district from being mentioned in future films in the series.[3]

I see that the author is so proud of his work that the coward wouldn't even
put his name on this crap. My guess is that calling successful
multi-national companies "Satan" works well to wind up those who already
drank the kool-aid but it doesn't do much to convert normal people who don't
take such radical positions.

With a little over a month left in the 2011 MLB regular season, it is safe to say that the Chicago Cubs are going nowhere. This discombobulated franchise is 17 games under .500 and get this, below the Pirates in the NL Central. Albeit, the Pirates are playing great baseball considering their recent history.
Cubs fans have little to enjoy and look forward to this season. Washed up and overpaid veterans do not appeal to the common fan and trust me, the Cubs have plenty of them. What the Cubs also have, however, is a handful of young and promising talent. Seeing the nifty Tony Campana rake an inside-the-park homer the other day gave Cubs fans a feel-good moment they deserved.
The young Campana is only one of the young players who have emerged into the Cubs system this year. All-Star Starlin Castro leads the way for these rising stars. These two will have big roles in the years to come if the Cubs ever decide to get serious and buckle down.
Now, let's take a look at some more "kids" the Cubs have.

'Basketball Wives' Meeka Claxton Talks Business, Independence & Reality TV Drama
How do you balance marriage, motherhood, business and your new-found celebrity?
The only way I know is prioritizing what's most important, and that's my family, so nothing was going to come before them. Luckily my husband scouts for the Golden State [Warriors] and his work didn't start until June, so I was lucky that filming fell between the time that he was home and not doing anything so he could help me out a lot. He was there for me and he wanted to show a real family doing big things, I guess. If it wasn't for him, I couldn't have done it. We're so close-knit. We're not really about the nannies and all of that, but we do have family who can help, and we fly in my mom and dad from time to time. His parents are here in Long Island, so we have family help, but we don't let them stay 24/7 to do that. That's not their job. My priorities are my family first, my business and then everything else.
I must say in person you come off a lot more positive than you seem to be on the show.
That's me. Being a basketball wife we have a community called "Behind The Bench." That's a community of the wives, girlfriends, the sisters of current and retired players. We're all about supporting each other, building each other up and just making sure that we have each other's back—like if you need to call someone, we have a binder of everyone's phone number and address. So if you need to call them to support your event or something, you can do it. That's what I know a "basketball wife" to be. It's a special bond, it's a unique bond. I've always been positive. I've never been a Negative Nancy, so this is new to me….
Given your experience and how you were portrayed on the show, do you think you'll be returning next season?
Anything can happen… I mean, it did leave a sour taste in my mouth, but anything can happen. I would never say "never."
Are you agonizing over the decision now or what?
Truth be told, I'm under a contractual obligation not to answer that question.
Oh OK, that's understandable. Now about the situation with Tami Roman, is your lawsuit against her still pending?
Yeah, the lawsuit is actually still pending. I did an interview and they asked me, "if she does want to talk to you and has learned her lesson, would you drop the suit?" I mean, that's all I really want. I don't need any money, I just really wanted her to know that you can't [resort to violence] as a grown woman. I mean, I just turned 32. I was 31 when we were filming and she was 41. It's like I'm a kid to you, so I felt like if I know better you should definitely know better. It was more like I said, a lesson you can't just go around putting your hands on people because you don't like something or you don't like them. You have to learn to verbally express yourself no matter how hard that is. The lines of communication are open on my end so let's see [what happens].
So you're willing to drop the suit if you feel like she's learned her lesson?
Yeah, I hate to say "lesson" because she is a grown woman, but it's more like if she realizes what she did was wrong. That's the way I want to say it I don't want to say "learned her lesson." If she honestly has some kind of remorse and can work on that then yeah, I'm grown and I have no problem talking to her.
How do you feel about how you were portrayed on the show?
What I had to remember after the first episode is that this is TV, and even though it's reality [TV] and I say the things I say, I am not a troublemaker. I am a reactor. Also, I have learned that TV's for entertainment. We filmed for hours on end, I'm tellin' you. We filmed for three months and I was only home for less than 30 hours a week, a little over a day a week just to see my kids. I made sure of that. So can you imagine filming that much and you're only seeing two minutes a week of me or maybe five minutes? That's really what, 50 minutes over the whole 10 weeks? You really don't get to see anything. I was saying to my husband after the first episode: "I'm good and I know me and I know all of me, so if they're only showing a certain percentage…" We had a lot of good things and positive things filmed, but it is entertainment and things are going to be highlighted for TV. I signed up to do . Although I wanted to show one thing, I can't be mad at it that that didn't happen. I have opportunities when I'm doing charity work and interviews to show who I [really] am so it is what it is. People see me on the street and they even think I don't think I look like what I look like on TV. Again I was in a hundred degree of heat for 13 hours a day, and I definitely didn't look like what I normally look like. I laugh because my business picture's been on line for years [laughs]. You can Google me and see what I look like.
What other ventures of yours should we be looking for?
I'm writing a book with my business partner. She and I are all about empowering women and we've been coining the term "Million Dollar Girls." We're going write a book with that title that's an investment guide for women and start and investment club for women. And on the other side of things, I'm about to launch MC Beauty, a cosmetics line for women of color who have trouble finding make up to match their skin tones.
Thanks for talking to us.
Thank you.

This week Fight Colorectal Cancer is providing comments to the FDA as they consider two new screening technologies for colorectal cancer. Below are our opinions and recommendations presented to the Molecular and Clinical Genetics Panel as part of the Medical Devices Advisory Committee.
This week, the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) is hosting an advisory committee meeting with many stakeholders that have an interest in two new potential screening technologies, Epi proColon (by Epigenomics) and Cologuard (by Exact Sciences). Kim Ryan, our Director of Patient Information Services and advocate Marcia Mullins are attending to provide comments as the FDA considers these two new screening technologies.
About Epi proColon & Cologuard
Epi proColon is a blood-based screening test that looks at genetic material in your blood that may occur due to a colorectal cancer tumor. A positive result from this test would lead to a colonoscopy.
Cologuard is a stool-based screening test that looks for DNA and blood in the stool that may suggest something is amiss. A positive result from this test would also lead to a colonoscopy.
Data Shows – Screening Saves Lives
We know that screening saves lives by finding and removing pre-cancerous polyps, and by detecting cancer at an early state – when it's most curable. However, one in three Americans who should be screened for colorectal cancer are not up-to-date with their screenings even though a recent article identified colorectal and cervical cancer screenings as the most impactful cancer screenings[i].
New data released by the American Cancer Society[ii] shows that colorectal cancer incidence rates have dropped 30 percent in the U.S. in the last 10 years among adults 50 years of age and older due to the uptake of screening.
The study finds the largest decrease has occurred in people over age 65, in whom the rate of decline has surged, with the decline accelerating from 3.6 percent per year during years of 2001-2008, to 7.2 percent per year during years 2008-2010.
Because screening works, over 50 organizations have united in an effort to increase the nation's colorectal cancer screening rate to 80 percent by the year 2018[iii].
Our comments to the FDA:
A popular phrase in colorectal cancer screening is "The best test is the one that gets done."
We need good screening tests, and we also need tests and strategies that address patient-reported barriers to compliance, particularly among the 23 million Americans who should be screened, but have not undergone a test yet.
We will be asking the FDA to strongly consider the sensitivity and specificity data of both tests, along with the appropriate intervals of testing.
What are sensitivity and specificity?
The sensitivity of a test determines its ability to correctly identify positive results. For example, the sensitivity of a colonoscopy test is the percentage of patients who were determined by colonoscopy to have pre-cancerous polyps or cancer who had a prior positive test result.
The specificity of the test determines its ability to correctly identify negative results. For example, it's the percentage of patients who were determined by colonoscopy not to have pre-cancerous polyps or cancer who had a negative previous test result.
Why are sensitivity and specificity so important?
Sensitivity and specificity allows researchers to evaluate the accuracy and confidence in which we use screening tools. Ideally, a perfect test is never positive in a patient who doesn't have cancer or precancerous polyps, and is never negative in a patient who does in fact have cancer or precancerous polyps.
If a novel test could improve compliance in a non-compliant population, we would like them to consider whether a limited indication might help increase compliance to screening guidelines in a very targeted way.
We have to Adapt
As technologies enter the market, we have to adapt our screening procedures and models, involving not just the physician but the entire medical team when offering colorectal cancer screening to the patient.
This takes partnering with gastroenterologists to ensure rapid diagnostic colonoscopy in appropriate patients, and developing patient-centered educational materials.
The proposed DNA/stool-based tests are an excellent example of the type of change we can make to improve quality and reduce cost. To reach our goal of 80 percent screened by 2018, we hope to continue to see improvements and access to screening for patients who are looking for non-invasive, low-cost options.
In the end, we want to ensure that new tests have the impact that we are all looking for – fewer deaths due to colorectal cancer.
Disclaimer: Fight Colorectal Cancer believes in fully disclosing any conflicts of interest. We have worked with and received unrestricted funding from many companies who have an interest in existing and novel screening methods for colorectal cancer, including Quest Diagnostics, Exact Sciences, and Epigenomics. None of these companies, nor any of our other corporate supporters, have influenced our comments on this issue.

Seattle Plans Their One Year Anniversary
Category: Culture | Posted on Tue, December, 3rd 2013 by THCFinder
Washington is one of the two states where recreational use of marijuana is allowed. Seattle itself is quickly approaching the one year anniversary of when marijuana became legal within the city. Stoners are preparing to celebrate and activist Ben Livingston is at the head of the party planning committee. Livingston is a writer and activist as well as the Seattle based Center For Legal Cannabis.
Livingston believes that Seattle can be a huge 420 friendly travel destination, much like Amsterdam or Jamaica. Since Seattle is already a big spot for travel, it's suspected that there is some amount of travelers that would want to legally smoke cannabis on their trip. And with competition high with Portland and Denver, Seattle stands to make themselves the head of the legal cannabis attractions in the United States.
December 6th will mark the day that cannabis has been legal for those 21 and over for a year. Those of age can carry up to an ounce of weed on their person. Rules similar to tobacco apply. You can't be getting stoned while waiting for a table at your favorite restaurant and your landlord can even put "not pot friendly" in your lease before you sign it. Even so, Seattle seems like one happy place for stoners to be able to hang out and have fun.
It will take time to make Seattle rival the epic wonder of places like Amsterdam. People want cool places to go and smoke, not just toke up on a bench in the park. The formation of lounges and smoking bars will take a bit but is a very real possibility. In the meantime, if you're in the Seattle area on the 6th, you should be attending the events that will be going on that day! :)

Marijuana Use "Unacceptable" For Driving, Nation's Drug Cops Warn
Category: News | Posted on Tue, December, 3rd 2013 by THCFinder
Even a tiny bit stoned is too stoned to drive, according to President Barack Obama's drug czar, who is issuing a warning on the danger posed by marijuana-smoking drivers.
Smoking marijuana before getting behind the wheel is "quite dangerous," according to
White House Office of National Drug Control Policy director Gil Kerlikowske, whose message is that "even a little intoxicated on marijuana is unacceptable," according to the San Francisco Chronicle.
However, a set of conflicting studies appear to give evidence for both Kerlikowske's warnings as well as marijuana advocates who say law enforcement is stirring up baseless worry reminiscent of reefer madness, the newspaper noted.
In Colorado, traffic fatalities dipped 16 percent from 2006 to 2011 -- during which time the state's medical marijuana industry expanded greatly -- but fatalities involving marijuana expanded 114 percent, the newspaper reported.
There are other studies, like one conducted in 2012 at Dalhousie University Medical School in Canada, that says marijuana-impaired drivers are three times as likely to get into an accident -- and for every one like that, there are ones like the 2011 review that suggested marijuana users are substituting smoking for drinking alcohol and staying home rather than driving.

The WPJA is proud to announce the results of the Trash The Dress (TTD) photography contest. Congratulations to all of the winners!
Gritty, romantic and uniquely sexy, TTD photo shoots challenge the photographers creativity, imagination and technical aptitude. Enjoyed by thousands of couples worldwide, these
on-location photo sessions commemorate the wedding and cherished gown within a glamorous, frivolous and often lively post-nuptial portfolio. TTD sessions meld formal wedding attire within
unconventional settings. For example, sessions are frequently held on sandy beaches, amidst crashing ocean waves, at rustic farms, on playgrounds or in urban settings.
To view the winning images, click on the contest thumbs on the WPJA home page.
WPJA award-winners Sol Tamargo and Matt
Adcock happen to be at the center of the Trash The Dress movement, and are among its foremost practitioners. As a married couple who often work together on TTD sessions, they have no
shortage of enthusiastic newlyweds anxious to experience this ritual, with the number of interested people growing by the week.
Its really getting popular, says Matt, who with Sol and their associate photographers at Del Sol Photography shoot more than 100 weddings each year. In 2007, we shot 22 TTD sessions,
and at this point now we have already shot 30 and change, and we will still do 8 to 10 more. We have had 89 inquiries for the month of July, and at least half of them are interested in TTD.
Drawing on this experience, Sol and Matt served as judges in the first-ever WPJA Trash the Dress contest.
We've recently published a
Trash The Dress WedPix article which covers
the following TTD topics:

Great night out. Everyone one was friendly and the host made sure you were having a good time. Food was good. Music was good. We danced a lot. One of the best nights we had there.
angel was the besttt.... love this.. if you go to cancun dont miss this experience!
It was a lot of fun. Great party and atmosphere.
My wife and I were both very happy in taking the Xoximilco cruise tour and highly recommend. We loved the music, food, and entertainment. This tour definitely depends on who you have on your boat and what level of energy you have that night. Be sure you're well rested and come there ready to dance and have fun! I wasn't a big fan of how they push you into purchasing all or none of the pictures. We will remember the experience forever!
Great nighttime experience in Cancun. It was fun to meet other people and the food was delicious as well!
We had a great time! Raul was great at getting everyone involved. The music was great, food was interesting and tasty and we had no complaints.
Mark and Doris
It was very fun. On time pick up. Lots of music and drinking. The food was not impressive but the whole mariachi and music was great. Over all it was a great time. Hotel delivery is past midnight. If you are going for the food not the tour for you
The tour was excellent! Jesus was wonderful on the bus very personable. The event was great fun. Our guide on the boat, Jordan, absolutely made the evening with his enthusiasm and sense of humor! I do think the food could have been better.
brandt44 USA
It's a fun evening, listening to Mexican music and eating Mexican food. Mucho cerveza and tequila
We got to sing, dance, and sway to the music. The employees are very amiable.
love it..

Poor Reneay Richardson. She has a birthday all by herself in May, while other members of her family get to celebrate theirs together in August.
Her 4-year-old daughter Mollee's birthday is Aug. 31. Her 6-year-old son Korbin's birthday is - Aug. 31. Her mother-in-law's birthday is - believe it or not - also on Aug. 31. And you can even throw in Reneay's husband's birthday, Aug. 30, to boot.
"Very expensive," is about all she can say about celebrating Aug. 31 every year.
Of course, it took several years for the extent of coincidences in the Richardson family to unfold.
"We were celebrating (husband) Keith's 28th birthday at (mother-in-law Susan Richardson's) house. And everything that happened when I went into labor with Korbin happened the exact same way when I went into labor with Mollee. The weather was the same, we had the exact same meal. Mexican food, because that's what she always makes for Keith on his birthday. We were timing the contractions to see if I was going into labor.
"When Korbin was born, my mother-in-law had said that that was her birthday wish - for him to be born on her birthday.
"We had no way of knowing that Mollee was going to be born on the same day. Korbin had been born two weeks late, but she was born two weeks early. The doctor had said there was no way she was going to be born on that day, that she would go full-term. But then, lo and behold, that's when she was born.
"I was thinking, 'This could not be happening. I can't have two kids on the same day. That just doesn't happen.' So I waited until the last minute to call the doctor, to make certain I was going into labor. He was mad I waited."
After such a peculiar string of events, you can't blame the Richardsons if they tend to see it all from a higher perspective.
"This sounds strange," Reneay Richardson said, "but my mother-in-law's sister passed away two months earlier (before Mollee's birth). We didn't know if it was going to be a boy or a girl, and she was in the waiting room. When she found out it was a girl, she was very excited. Afterward I said to her, 'Margaret sent you your birthday present.'
"We don't know if it has something more to it, but we always thought it might."
The kids, too, are starting to have to face the peculiarity that brought them into the world.
"Korbin is in the first grade," Reneay Richardson said. "He told his teacher that he had the same birthday as his sister, and she didn't believe him.
"Mollee doesn't realize the coincidence yet, that it's an extraordinary thing, that you don't find too many brothers and sisters with the same birthday - who aren't twins, at least."
Aside from all higher forces involved, Reneay and Keith Richardson have learned a few practical lessons, too. Although they don't plan to have any more children, she said, "We're just careful around Thanksgiving. That's when it seems to happen that I get pregnant.
"And we just pray that there's not anymore birthdays in August. If it happens, we pray that it's in February."

Susan Richardson and her grandchildren Korbin, 6, and Mollee, 4, share the same birthdate of Aug. 31.

Every organization happily daydreams of the perfect Big Data analytics strategy, but the reality of messy IT environments typically renders the situation as more of a nightmare than fantasy. Time and time again, business teams fail to see proportional returns on their analytics investments, despite implementing best-of-breed tools and algorithms. Why? It's not necessarily the tools themselves; it's the data they're being fed.
The biggest perpetuator of data mismanagement is the ubiquitous data "silo." Harboring content in isolation, the prototypical data silo is established with the best of intentions – to solve a specific problem or increase control of a particular data type – but paradoxically makes data harder to globally access and govern over time. With different data types scattered amongst different locations being used for different purposes in different business units, there's no wonder that it's hard to take inventory of the entire enterprise data corpus… let alone leverage it proactively.
Big Data analytics demands a big-picture approach to information governance practices, and silos impede the way forward. Data manipulation is futile without the ongoing effort to cleanse, pool, and maintain resources over time; but silos, by nature, segregate and disperse material. No matter their original intention, a data silos is guilty of several "sins" that must be eliminated. In this slideshow, ZL Tech has identified five big problems with using the silo.

Why "You Look Like Your Mom" Is the Worst Thing to Say to a Teen Girl
It happens often. When I'm out with my daughter, someone invariably exclaims, "Well, aren't you just the spitting image of your mother?" Outwardly, my daughter smiles. To the stranger, she seems thrilled to be given the comparison. To this mother's eye, I notice a faint twitch beginning to form behind her grin. Or maybe it's just a bit of nausea coming on. Either way, she's clearly not pleased.
Personally, I think it's meant as a compliment. I don't have a third eye in the middle of my forehead. I have yet to grow moles with long black hairs curling from them. I have managed to maintain a slim physique, and have few noticeable wrinkles. So why is the comparison so fraught with angst?
Credit: irelynkiss.
To hear Mabel tell it, it means that the stranger is saying that she herself looks old, like a 47-year-old woman old. As if they think that her youthful 15-year-old face looks just like my aging, sagging one. I think she's missing the point, of course. Our features resemble one another at quick glance; the untrained eye sees the same shape face and same full lips. Upon further inspection, one might notice that I don't have a multitude of freckles dotting the bridge of my nose and cheeks and our eye shape is nothing alike. And though we both have dark hair, hers falls in beautiful waves down her back and mine can barely hold a curl. And the list goes on.
Perhaps my daughter is just frightened of not being her own self, or more accurately, of being just like me both in outward appearance and in personality. No teenage girl wants to be just like her mother in any way, shape or form. In fact, they do whatever is necessary to distance themselves from any possibility of comparison. So when the woman behind the counter at Lululemon, a woman who doesn't know us at all (but should because we frequent that store more than I'd like to admit) innocently remarks that "you look just like your mother," she has committed a sin of epic proportions: Thou Shalt Not Compare A Teenage Girl to Her Mother. Thou could lose thy sale if thou wasn't selling merchandise that teenager covets. Oops, Thou Shalt Not Covet. The sins are just piling up.
I guess when you are 15-years-old and your sense of self is so in flux and so dependent on what others think of you, it stands to reason that you want to be like the girl in your Chemistry class and not the girl who is your mother. You want to believe that you will always be fun and carefree. You'll always be the girl who flips her hair to and fro and takes pictures of herself at every waking moment. You'll never be serious and demanding and worry about silly things like college tuition and a clean house. Turn your head away from that woman so you can't possibly become her.
Until the day that you are her and you realize that it's not such a bad thing after all. You hear her words come out of your mouth and you see her hands in your own hands and it's all good. You no longer flinch when someone says, "you two could pass for twins." It's ironic really—in order to become a whole and unique woman, you first have to accept the part of you that is just like your mother. Because, child, you can run and run but you can't hide from your genes or your upbringing.
So, my dear Mabel, I will stick by you through the eye-rolling and sarcasm. I'll be here for you even when you do your best to avoid me. I love you, and I can't wait to see the woman you will become once you embrace the girl that you are.

NEWS: Berkeley Farmers' Markets First in Nation to Eliminate Plastic Bags
The Berkeley Farmers' Markets are "our" farmers' markets and we can tell you from first-hand experience — the vast majority of people (we're talking 95% here, at least) who shop these markets bring their own bags and avoid plastic produce bags at all cost. We're glad the Ecology Center is making it official though. It sends a nice message ... hopefully one other farmers' markets will pick up on. Do most people shop your farmers' markets with reusable bags? Or do you see a lot of plastic bag consumption? image via absentmindedprof; Flickr.com
