Should the old City Kinsmen Swimming Pool be destroyed or converted into a senior citizen's activity centre?
As president of the Battlefords Heritage Society, I would be remiss if I did not comment on the City's intent to destroy the old North Battleford and Kinsmen Swimming Pool (Kinsmen Aquatic Centre), the proposed construction of a seniors' apartment complex on the site by a Saskatoon Company, the potential to save the basically sound old swimming pool and use it for an important community purpose, and attendant issues.
The old City Kinsmen Swimming Pool qualifies as a historic building A structure has to be old enough, but it doesn't have to be a 100 years old to be historic. A half-century can be old enough if other essential factors are present. 1950s diners are considered historic buildings, for example.
First, the style of the old pool is unique to the decade in which it was constructed. The building has a distinctive 1960s arched (semicircular) roof line – a Quonset style of architecture, and a unique '60s dark brown exterior brick facade. Only one other building in North Battleford was built in this style, as far as I know – the old Safeway building on 101st Street, across from City Hall - now covered by dark brown metal cladding.
Second, the significance of the building to the community must also be considered. The old Kinsmen swimming pool was an important social, recreational, cultural and athletic centre since 1966. Citizens of every age – from young tots with their mothers to senior citizens, and scuba divers in training and aqua fitness classes regularly used the pool. Generation after generation of children from the Battlefords and surrounding communities were bussed from their schools to the pool for swimming lessons. In the early days, I remember my younger brother being bussed from Martin Gran School in Meadow Lake for swimming lessons at the Kinsmen pool. As a physical education teacher at Cairns Junior High School in the early '70s, I accompanied many hundreds of students to the pool for swimming lessons. There can be no doubt the old pool was extraordinarily important to the citizens of North Battleford, Battleford and surrounding communities for many decades.
Finally, the building must be of sufficient quality to qualify as a historic building. The old Kinsmen swimming pool is solid. Its exterior walls are straight and true; its roof should do for another 20 years or so. The interior walls and ceiling appear to be in relatively good shape as well. Rooms constructed of cinderblock tend to age well. The outstanding feature of the pool is its full-span arched fir rafters and tongue and groove cedar roof – unique in the Battlefords.
However, if the old pool is to be saved, renovated and used, any who would take on this project should know the heating system is problematic and needs to be replaced. I've heard reports it will take millions of dollars to restore the old swimming pool, and that replacing the heating system alone would cost about $1,000,000. Frankly, I can't see that. I used to own the Battlefords Athletic Club (the city's first gym – a health and fitness club) – now Alumni Glass by John Bridges Pontiac – for the better part of the decade of the '80s. The building was new then. We had two roof-mounted furnaces to heat and air-condition a 5,000 square-foot building. A great deal of expense was saved on duct work. The furnaces are still there, and in use.
Rather than fill in the pool, which would require removing a section of exterior wall, trucking in many tons of fill, then pouring a concrete floor that would be expensive, it would make sense to run centre posts and 2 x 12 joists perpendicular to the length of the pool, glue and screw down a plywood floor and install a finished floor over that. In order to save a great deal of initial expense, it would also be expedient to close off the bottom level (to consider for later use) and develop the ground level – about 6,000 square feet.
Despite my optimism, I know that renovating the interior would not be inexpensive. The question is whether the cost would be justified in terms of saving a historic building and pragmatically using a basically sound structure for an important community purpose. I think it would, but a careful assessment by locally qualified people would be necessary to determine this.
The imperative of a seniors' residential centre would likely trump the cultural and historical value of the old swimming pool if there was no where else to build it other than directly on site of the old pool. But why this location? Is this where seniors want it? Did someone ask them? This location has some attractive features to be sure. But there is also an 800 student high school immediately to the east, school buses and high school congested traffic in the mornings before classes commence to the south, at noon and after school, soccer games to the west, a baseball park close by, congested parking lots and bumper to bumper traffic at North Stars Hockey games and crowds at events at the track.
What's the draw for this location? Horseshoes? Horseshoe pits are relatively easy and inexpensive to construct anywhere. It's a different story for tennis courts, which would have to be relocated. Even so, if seniors want a facility at this location, then we should support it, although I think we could still save the pool and use it to our seniors' advantage. Our seniors are a large demographic in North Battleford. They built this city and sustained it for many decades. They deserve our admiration, respect and support. We should all be behind the Battlefords' Enhanced Living Centre Inc. in its quest to build the Snowy Owl Manor, for example. Our seniors also deserve a state of the art senior citizens activity centre.
To be continued ...

Nanoemulsions have the potential to be inherently antimicrobial, according to Susan Ciotti, PhD, and David Peralta of Nanobio Corporation, a company founded on a nanoemulsion technology with antibacterial benefits. While most emulsions employ an oil phase, a water phase and a surfactant, the company's nanoemulsion includes a second surfactant and a solvent. In addition, the process to create the nanoemulsion is proprietary and involves a few steps not seen in traditional emulsion making.
According to Ciotti, the surface chemistry is also different than conventional nanoemulsions. "The combination of surfactants at the interface of the nanoemulsion droplets and the way [the nanoemulsion] is manufactured causes the particles to have high energy, and they tend to fuse with viruses and bacteria to destroy them," Ciotti explained. "It is a novel way of getting something to attack a microbial particle." And although the droplets are high in energy, they retain a GMP stability of 3 years or more, and a longer non-GMP stability, according to Peralta.
Ciotti emphasized it is the nanoemulsion itself that is the antiviral agent and not an ingredient encapsulated within it. "Usually in the emulsion literature or products out [on the market], an active drug is encapsulated or combined with the emulsion and that is what gives the product its efficacy, not the emulsion itself," Peralta concurred. "Our nanoemulsion droplet is what is doing the killing and creating the effect we desire. Even though the ingredients in the nanoemulsion individually are not antimicrobial, when added together and emulsified via a proprietary process, they become antimicrobial in vivo due to the high energy state and the surface activity of the emulsion."
Treatment for Cold Sores
The technology has been investigated for a number of applications. "It can be used topically against any envelope virus, fungi, bacteria or protozoan spore," noted Peralta. However, the company initially targeted Herpes labialis, or the herpes infection of the lip. Through a partnership with GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), that target may soon become a reality.
Nearly five years ago, the company conducted a study to determine the efficacy of the nanoemulsion on inhibiting the Herpes labialis virus from forming cold sores. "We tested topical doses of the nanoemulsion up to 0.1%, and although we saw efficacy, we did not feel that we plateaued," noted Peralta. A few years later, a second study with 0.3% of the nanoemulsion showed greater efficacy and proved to be the optimal dose, which generated interest from GSK.

My sister gave me this fabric and I just love it. This pattern is very easy with only 3 pieces. I thought it was a little plain so I added removable handmade circle flowers with covered buttons in the center to match skirt. This is my favorite outfit that I have sewn for my daughter so far. The smile on her face when she saw it let me know that she loves it too!

In occupied Palestine, events were held to mark Prisoners' Day. 1,200 Palestinian detainees in Israeli prisons began an open-ended hunger strike in protest of their mistreatment and ongoing detention. Participants in the event demanded the release of the prisoners. During the Prisoners' Day rally, speaker of the Palestinian Legislative Council, Ahmed Bahar called for escalating the armed resistance to liberate the prisoners. For his part, former Minister of Prisoners' Affairs Hisham Abdul Raziq highly praised the detainees' hunger strike and denounced the international community's silence on the occupation's practices. He called for showing solidarity with the prisoners in order to end their suffering.
Reporter, Male #2
From across the Gaza Strip, tens of thousands of Palestinians flowed into the streets to take part in the events marking Palestinian Prisoners' Day. Thousands of Palestinian and Arab prisoners are still subjected to the most horrific practices by the Israeli prison administration. Participants called on the factions of the resistance to kidnap Israeli soldiers to force the Israeli occupation to release all the prisoners.
Guest, Female #1 (Samr Sabih, Freed Prisoner)
Today, we are here in Gaza and the squares of Gaza. All of us came out. We tell the Palestinian prisoners, "We are with you until you triumph over the will of the Zionist wardens." Specifically, I say the only policy of dealing with the occupation is resistance, and kidnapping the soldiers so they can be traded for prisoners from the occupation's jails.
Reporter, Male #2
Over 800,000 Palestinians have spent various periods of time in Israeli prisons. Tens of thousands of Palestinians came out today in solidarity with the thousands of remaining prisoners. Participants condemned Israel's violations of the prisoners' rights and its repressive practices against them.
Guest, Male #3 (Dr. Yousef al-Sharafi, Hamas Legislative Council Member)
We send all our greetings to the Arab and Islamic nations, and we want massive demonstrations to affirm their real solidarity with the heroic prisoners.
Reporter, Male #2
Leaders from every faction and civil society organization called for unifying the Palestinian front to achieve the goal of liberating the prisoners and attaining the remaining legitimate national rights of the Palestinian people. They vowed to continue all forms of struggle until they fully attain their rights.
Guest, Male #4 (Khader Habib, Leader in the Islamic Jihad Movement)
All Palestinian people are behind you. We, along with you, are engaging in one battle in facing the Zionist enemy and confronting the world's arrogant policy. So, God willing, we will be with you and behind you, and support you with all our means, God willing, and that includes kidnapping Zionist soldiers in order to trade them for your freedom, God willing.
Reporter, Male #2
All Palestinian communities renewed their commitment to all forms of struggle and resistance until the prisoners are freed from Israeli jails. They demanded the international community and human rights organizations put an end to the Israeli violations and prosecute those who committed war crimes. Mustafa Abdul Hadi, Al-Alam, Gaza, Palestine.
Presenter, Male #1
In the West Bank, Palestinians headed to Ofer Prison for a sit-in to condemn the Israeli practices against the Palestinian prisoners. The Palestinians clashed with the occupation soldiers who dispersed the protestors by force and kicked them out of areas near the detention house. A variety of events were held to mark the Palestinian Prisoners' Day in the city of Ramallah. Participants called for unity and an end to the division, and denounced the policy of administrative detention adopted by the occupation authorities. In addition, they called on political parties, all Palestinian factions, associations, and labor unions to support the resistance until victory is attained.
Senior IDF officer suspended for hitting Danish activist in face with M16
IBA, Israel
A senior IDF officer named Shalom Eisner has been suspended after being caught on camera using his M16 rifle to assault an unarmed 20-year-old Danish activist in the face on Saturday. As the news broke, officials condemned the behavior, and the IDF has launched a probe into the incident.
'Flytilla' activists barred from entering Israel
IBA, Israel
As for the foreign pro-Palestinian "flytilla" campaign, after much media hype, most protestors were never allowed to leave Europe. Those arriving in Israel were detained and deported. In the end, only a handful of activists reached Bethlehem as planned. Most of the foreign activists detained were French citizens.
Amnesty International criticizes Bahrain over ongoing human rights crisis
BBC Arabic, UK
Presenter, Female #1
The European Union's High Representative for Foreign Affairs Catherine Ashton called on Bahrain today to save the life of jailed activist on hunger strike, Abdulhadi al-Khawaja. She said his health is now a "matter of the utmost urgency." Amnesty International said human rights violations are continuing in Bahrain, even though the Bahraini government accepted the international fact-finding committee's recommendations. According to a new report released by the organization, al-Manama failed to achieve justice for the protestors. It described the reforms in Bahrain as flawed and unable to provide justice for the victims of the violations.
Reporter, Male #2
More than a year has passed since protests erupted in Bahrain. The past year witnessed casualties within the ranks of those who came out to condemn the government's policies. Demonstrators gradually raised the ceiling of their demands, eventually calling for the downfall of the regime. Al-Manama responded to international criticism by forming a fact-finding committee that recommended at the end of its mission the political reform of the regime and its judiciary and security systems. But Bahraini opposition forces believe the government did not commit to the committee's suggestions. Instead, they believe the government outmaneuvered the recommendations and implemented only parts of them. Amnesty International adopted this position in its latest report on the Bahraini crisis. The report said government reforms are flawed, and have failed to provide justice for the victims of human rights violations in Bahrain.
Guest, Female #1 (Suzanne Nossel, Executive Director of Amnesty International)
It continues to hold large numbers of people in detention; it has imposed very harsh sentences on people without fair trials. There are 14 opposition leaders that remain in custody; there has been no high level accountability for those abuses. So we see window dressing in the form of independent investigation that gave an aura of seriousness on the part of the government in terms of living up to their human rights responsibilities, but very little in the way of follow-through.
Reporter, Male #2
In its report, the organization criticized what it viewed as the Bahraini government's attempts to convince the international community that the country is taking the path of reform, while its security institutions continue to practice torture and use excessive force against the protestors.
Guest, Female #1
So they've, you know, done the typical thing, in a sense, by going after those low-level people who were on the front lines but were really just following orders. So we've been really dissatisfied in terms of any seriousness about holding accountable those who are making the decisions, issuing the orders, and were really masterminding this crackdown.
Reporter, Male #2
At the end of its report, Amnesty International called on the Bahraini government to turn its words into actions, release all prisoners of conscience, and hold the perpetrators of torture and those who killed protestors accountable.
Ahmadinejad warns the West against attacking Iran
Al Jazeera, Qatar
Presenter, Female #1
Gulf Cooperation Council foreign ministers denounced the last visit of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmedinejad to Abu Mousa Island. They described it as a provocative act that contradicts good neighbourly policies. At the end of their exceptional meeting in Doha, the Cooperation Council's foreign ministers demanded their Iranian counterparts end the occupation of islands that belong to the Emirates, and comply with Abu Dhabi's call to find a fair and peaceful solution through bilateral negotiations, or referral to the International Court of Justice. The ministers announced their solidarity with the Emirates, and their support of all the measures the country is taking to retrieve its rights and sovereignty over its islands. In Iran, President Mahmoud Ahmedinejad said the security of the Gulf is based on mutual security between all the states of the area. In a military show celebrating Iran's Army Day, Ahmedinejad called on Gulf countries to work together to ensure the stability of the region.
Reporter, Male #1
Militarily, there's nothing new on Iran's Army Day; the same weapons crossing the same road. However, the speech is different this time, and a calm tone distinguishes the statements of Iranian officials. Iran seems unaffected by an escalation with the West following the latest talks in Istanbul, which were described as positive. President Ahmedinejad preferred directing his speech to those who criticized his last visit to the Abu Mousa Island in the Gulf. The president's words carried an invitation to his Arab neighbors.
Guest, Male #2 (Mahmoud Ahmedinejad, Iranian President)
Security in the Persian Gulf is based on mutual security that needs the contribution of the region's states and people. The presence of foreign troops there undermines security. Iran is ready to secure the stability of this region in cooperation with the rest of the countries.
Reporter, Male #1
This Iranian invitation is not new, but important in a phase during which the area of disagreement between Tehran and its southern neighbors is widening. Iran seems as if it does not sense any danger these days. The agreement with the West on nuclear affairs and other issues may have calmed its tone. Tehran says the main danger has been lessened, though slightly. What remains is what is described here as a push and pull strategy with neighboring Arab countries, even if it appears as an escalation. Since the beginning, Tehran firmly dealt with the Abu Mousa issue. Abu Mousa, according to Iran, is absolutely part of the Iranian territory. With that, Iran prefers to engage in a dialogue with the Gulf countries, including the Emirates.
Guest, Male #3 (Mohamed Reda Amini, Journalist)
The case of these islands is old; focusing on it is not in the interest of these countries. I think that adopting a policy of confrontation is a wrong and unhelpful decision because of the region's distinct circumstances.
Reporter, Male #1
Iranians rule out the outbreak of an escalated crisis with neighboring Gulf countries. However, they are warning some in the region, and even some outside of it, from fishing in murky waters. Abdel Khader Fayez, Al Jazeera, Tehran.
Syrian troops bombard Homs and other rebel areas
Future TV, Lebanon
Presenter, Male #1
In Syria, dozens of people were killed by the gunfire of al-Assad's brigades. Most of the victims were killed in Idlib Province, where its town of Ariha is enduring heavy and indiscriminate shelling, similar to the shelling of Homs' neighborhoods and other towns in the Daraa province. Meanwhile, the head of the international observers' team said their mission is "not easy," and requires the coordination of all Syrian sides.
Reporter, Female #1
Five days have passed since the "cooling-off period" was announced. Meanwhile, the Syrian regime continues to violate the ceasefire, ignoring its commitment to the joint UN-Arab envoy to Syria, Kofi Annan. Even with the presence of international observers on the ground, al-Assad's brigades launched a new round of heavy shelling targeting Homs' neighborhoods, especially al-Bayada and al-Khalidiya where mortar shells fell on residential homes.
Reporter, Female #1
The situation was not much different in Homs' Jawbar and al-Sultaniya neighborhoods, which are witnessing heavy and indiscriminate shelling, amid a dire humanitarian crisis caused by the absence of food and medical supplies. This has led to additional problems, especially for the injured and the sick. A number of ceasefire violations were also reported in Idlib, where dozens of residents were killed and dozens of others were wounded. This comes as Syrian security forces continue to carry out fierce military operations across various villages in the eastern region of Jabal al-Zawiya. The army deployed dozens of armored vehicles and tanks, amid heavy mortar and artillery shelling. The operation was concentrated in the towns of Ariha, Saja, Bathabur, and Kifar Lata. The latter was stormed by al-Assad's brigades, deploying helicopters and opening heavy fire.
Reporter, Female #1
The Syrian Revolution's General Commission said that several people were executed by the shabiha in the city of Idlib. In Daraa, several residents were killed or injured due to the regime forces' artillery and rocket shelling that targeted Basr al-Harir in their attempt to take control of that village. In addition, the area of Lija in Daraa witnessed heavy gunfire and artillery shelling, amid sounds of powerful explosions. Lija, which is a steep rocky area, is home to a large number of defectors from the regime's army. In Hama, snipers were heavily deployed on school rooftops in the area of Qilaat al-Madiq. Armored vehicles were also entrenched in al-Qisour neighborhood, amid heavy gunfire.
Reporter, Female #1
Meanwhile, al-Assad's brigades stormed the town of Lahaya in the countryside of Hama, and carried out indiscriminate home raids and arrests. In the countryside of Damascus, particularly in Thaqba, the army continues to display a military presence and has set up barriers on the city's streets, as helicopters flew overhead in a blatant violation of the truce. Amid the fragile ceasefire, the international observers continued their mission in Syria by touring areas outside the capital Damascus. On their first day, the observers held intensive talks for hours at the Syrian Foreign Ministry's headquarters. The head of the international observers' team in Syria, Colonel Ahmed Himmiche, said their mission is "not easy."
Egypt panel rejects barred candidates' appeals
Press TV, Iran
Egypt's electoral body has rejected appeals filed by candidates disqualified from running for the May presidential election. The electoral bodies disqualified ten of the twenty plea-registered candidates. Three main disqualified candidates are Egypt's former main intelligence chief Omar Suleiman, Khairat al-Shater from the Muslim Brotherhood, and the ultra-conservative Salafist, Hazem Abu Ismail. The electoral commission argues that its decision is based on legal grounds.
Women, children slam Shia massacre in Pakistan
Press TV, Iran
Women and children have taken to the streets in Pakistan's southwestern city of Quetta to condemn the recent targeted killings of Shia Muslims in the Hazara community. Protestors shouted slogans against the government and law enforcement for their failure to curb the killings in the provincial capital Balochistan. A strike was also held on Sunday against the sectarian violence. Balochistan's chief minister has warned of the possibility of civil war in the province if the targeted killings continue.
Divided Malians await election after coup
Press TV, Iran
The military coup in Mali has divided the West African country between the central and northern parts, the latter being a stronghold of local fighters. There is a mixed reaction as the citizens wait for the interim government to resolve the country's instability.
South Sudan: Why is Israel building a foothold in Africa?
New TV, Lebanon
Presenter, Female #1
The Sudanese parliament declared it voted to brand the government of South Sudan an enemy of Khartoum. This comes after South Sudanese force occupied the oil-producing Sudanese area of Heglig. The announcement declaring South Sudan's government an enemy of Sudan added that Sudanese state institutions must deal with the south accordingly. The head of the parliament called for ousting the government of South Sudan. The following report explores the mysteries of the Sudanese crisis.
Reporter, Male #1
It is a coincidence that the land of the Sudanese Unity State is a post-secession battlefield between the north and the south. The disputed state is located in the south, and holds the Bentiu area that has one of the most important oil fields in Sudan: the Heglig field. And while oil continues to be a contentious issue between Sudan and the emerging South Sudanese state, Juba doesn't hesitate to provoke Khartoum and drag it into an armed conflict.
Reporter, Male #1
Juba is backed by Israel, and according to the Israel Today newspaper, the country is training and arming the South Sudanese army. The newspaper revealed that Israeli warplanes land daily in the Rubkona airport in South Sudan, and confirmed that planes unload missiles and arms, in addition to transporting African mercenaries ready to fight on the side of the South Sudanese army against Sudan.
Reporter, Male #1
The relationship between Israel and South Sudan is not new, but goes back to the early 1960s when the armed rebellion was first launched, and was known as the Anya Nya and led by Captain Joseph Lagu in Uganda. The support was not limited to weapons, but military camps led by Israeli officers were established in Uganda. In the 1980s, the second armed rebellion started with the Sudan People's Liberation Movement, led by John Garang. During this stage, Israel's arming and training of the movement grew. Following the secession of South Sudan, there was no longer a reason for secrecy and covertness, and the newly-established state's president, Salva Kiir, visited Israel after the two states started their official relationship on the basis of strategic cooperation. Kiir's famous statement was, "Had it not been for you, we would not have been able to exist. You fought with us for the establishment of South Sudan."
Reporter, Male #1
Israel's battle for the establishment of South Sudan wasn't fought with the southerners in mind, but it was part of an Israeli effort to create a non-Muslim Sub-Saharan African coalition led by Israel, with South Sudan at its forefront. The Israeli aspiration is not limited to the continent's oil, gold, and uranium resources, but extends to water, as Israel seeks to control the water springs that feed the Nile River. For this reason, it financed South Sudan's Nile water dam projects. And this will cause a conflict that neither Sudan nor Egypt are likely to idly stand by and watch.

Gammons quotes Rangers official: 'We got Upton'
MLB Network's Peter Gammons was present and recently tweeted about some of the "fun" surrounding the endless trade rumors about Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Justin Upton:
If you don't believe the multi-team Upton trade talk, Wednesday night a Rangers official called an Astros officisl and said, "we got Upton."
— Peter Gammons (@pgammo) December 7, 2012
Upton has been part of trade rumors for the last three offseasons, and his name has been one of the most talked about at this year's gathering.
Obviously nothing is official at this point and Gammons' tweet could indicate just how close the trade was to going down before the plug was pulled. It could also indicate that the deal is close to consummation.
Thursday, talk of complicated three and four-team deals surfaced with Upton being one of the centerpieces for potential swaps. Other teams that have been rumored in such deals are the Tampa Bay Rays, Cleveland Indians, and of course, the Texas Rangers.
Based on Gammons' tweet, Friday could be an interesting day on the Upton front.

It was a second straight win for Scotland who impressed in overcoming Italy in the second outing, having slipped to defeat to England in their first.
Scotland full-back Ruaridh Young, in the starting XV for Keith Buchan, opened the scoring, capitalising on Robbie Fergusson's fine grubber kick through before Allan added the extras for a 7-0 lead.
Tom Daly got the visitors up and running with a penalty but back came Scotland again and Hoyland intercepted and romped to the Ireland try-line from 50 metres out to put his side in command.
Allan again converted but that score stirred Ireland into life and the visitors mounted some concerted pressure of their own.
Finally it told as No.8 Ryan Murphy dived over for Ireland's first try of the night and David Panter then brought the visitors to within a point with his side's second score.
Ireland then found themselves 20-14 to the good and good value for the win after more sustained pressure in the Scotland 22 resulted in a penalty try, Daly converting from in front of the posts.
Scotland flanker Will Bordill had been sent to the sin bin and from the resulting scrum, Ireland made their possession count, leaving referee Ian Davies with little opportunity but to award the try.
But Scotland were not to be outdone and Allan superbly found Hoyland in space and the winger stormed over the line before Allan struck a sweet, curling effort to hand the hosts a 21-20 lead.
There were still five minutes remaining for Ireland to respond but try as they might, they couldn't force their way past a defiant Scotland defence, ensuring victory for Sean Lineen's men.

L13 — November 2012 — Genetic Testing for Breast Cancer
Intro: It could be your mom, sister, aunt or best friend. One out of eight women will get breast cancer in her lifetime. A small subset of the women who get diagnosed have inherited an abnormal copy of a gene that runs in families and can greatly increase their risk of certain cancers. One question these women and their families face is: should I get tested to find out if I have a genetic risk? The answer is always a very personal one.
She was just a very positive person. Particularly when she was fighting cancer she had nothing but hope.
Mary Holm's sister Debbie lost her battle with breast cancer when she was just 30 years old. She was diagnosed at age 28.
She was five months pregnant with her third child and she noticed a lump in her chest.
Because Debbie was so young, Mary's family did a little research and found out some people on her dad's side of the family carried a breast cancer gene.
So we went ahead and got her tested and she was BRCA-1 positive. Then I was tested and I was the same.
There's a common myth out there that you can only get this from your mother's side of the family.
Singular Genetics counselor Maegan Roberts says that's not true. There are two known breast cancer genes that can run on either side of your family. And they increase a woman's risk of breast cancer by about 80-percent and your risk of ovarian cancer by about 40-percent. The question is, if it runs in your family, should you get tested?
I tend to think about it in terms of knowledge. Having the knowledge is power. Once you know that you have the mutation, and you know you have a certain risk, you can take steps proactively to find things quicker, at an earlier, more treatable stage. Or you can inform your family so they can take steps to protect themselves as well.
Dr. Stephanie Hines says if you have the gene you can increase surveillance with tests like self-breast exams, mammography and MRI, or you can take medication such as tamoxifen, or have a mastectomy to remove both breasts, or surgery to remove ovaries. Once Mary learned she carried the BRCA-1 gene, she chose surveillance. She recommends all women considering genetic testing know their options so they can make informed decisions.
Because you need to know what you're going to do with that information.
Information that will help keep Mary and her family cancer free.
For Mayo Clinic News Network, I'm Vivien Williams
Anchor tag:
Most women who get breast cancer do not carry either of the two known genes. But those who do, have a significantly increased risk of getting the disease.

I noticed there is a new watchdog process running to notify a user about the status of Method server side processing that might be taking a bit more time.
I can see it when one of my screen actions is generating a pdf report.
This is a nice addition since occasionally these pdf reports can take some time to generate, up to 1 minute or so, and it's nice to know that nothing's wrong. The watchdog message says that the process is "healthy".
I would think this is a really nice feature for folks supporting several users. They might not like to wait, but we have a way to tell them, nothing's really wrong, just be patient.
I think this is a clever way to help manage performance expectations.
Good job!
You can find more information on our release notes for the May version - this addition was the Long process health-check and kicks in after 15 seconds. There are some nice goodies (Gmail Gadget!) in this version.

And the company has begun to install more chemistry that will capture smog-forming nitrogen oxides before they billow out the smokestack as well—albeit at the cost of some additional carbon dioxide being added to the atmosphere.
In addition, burning the coal in the first place has become more expensive; the price of coal has been allowed to rise by the NDRC—particularly the higher-quality coal shipped by rail from Inner Mongolia. "That means our profit is coming down, indeed we are facing great cost pressure," Shi says. "We blend coals in order to optimize the cost. Our units are designed to burn coal from Inner Mongolia but we blend some brown coal and local coal into the mix."
But, regardless of China's national goals, the Dandong Power Plant will not get a chemistry set to control its greenhouse gas emissions anytime soon, although the Huaneng Group is responsible for China's only two existing carbon-capture demonstration projects. The technology is simply too expensive to add, in addition to requiring even more coal to be burned to provide the power to run that chemistry set in the first place. "It depends on the will of the [Huaneng] Group," Shi says, and whether the energy company is willing—or ordered—to install such greenhouse gas pollution controls in future.
And coal technologies that might make such carbon capture—and ultimately storage deep beneath the ground—feasible, such as turning the coal into a gas before burning it, are not favored by at least some of those in charge at the NDRC. "[Gasified coal's] cost is no cheaper than nuclear power," Zhang says. "Frankly speaking, personally, I do not quite support [this] technology."
New energy
In a bid to displace some of the hegemony of coal, the NDRC has mandated that companies like Huaneng generate at least 8 percent of their electricity from so-called "new energy"—such as wind turbines. A vast pool of money derived from a 0.04-renminbi (0.006-cent) fee charged for every kilowatt-hour of electricity sold in the country helps subsidize such efforts, leading to the addition of some 12 gigawatts worth of wind turbines in northeastern China alone, or roughly 5.5 percent of total power generation. "Areas without wind resources subsidize the areas with wind resources," explains Wang Gang, executive vice president of Northeast China Grid Co., Ltd., via a translator.
Households pay roughly 0.5 renminbi (0.075 cent) per kilowatt-hour of electricity. "That kind of subsidy doesn't come from the government's pocket; it comes from each Chinese consumer's pocket," explains public affairs director Thomas Yao of Goldwind Science and Technology, a wind turbine manufacturer.
But the wind is unreliable: In Liaoning Province, which encompasses Dandong, the winds are strongest in fall and winter and at night—exactly when coal-fired power plants are most needed for their other output: heat. In fact, the Dandong Power Plant is now completing a retrofit to provide local heat in order to replace some 132 smaller boilers in the port, part of more than 7,000 megawatts of such small, dirty units shut down nationwide since 2005 in a bid to reduce air pollution. "The coldest areas need heating from September to May," Wang says. "In winter, we cannot reduce the capacity or generation of thermal indefinitely; we need to keep a minimum in order to ensure heating."

Selman Waksman Born Jul 22 1888 - Died Aug 16 1973 Streptomycin Patent Number(s) 2,443,485
Inducted 2005 Selman Waksman revolutionized medicine and saved the lives of countless tuberculosis patients with Streptomycin, a powerful antibiotic. As pioneer in microbiology, Waksman specialized in the study of microbes in soil. He recognized that microorganisms produced many organic substances with unknown properties and created a screening system to isolate and identify those substances with antibiotic properties. By examining thousands of soil samples, his lab identified a number of viable antibiotic drugs. The most important find, streptomycin, provided the first effective treatment for tuberculosis, a disease that had ravaged mankind. Previously, tuberculosis victims were kept in sanitaria where their main treatment was fresh air and a healthy diet. Waksman's success inspired others to research antibiotics. Royalties from patents generated enormous profits, enabling Waksman to establish and fund the Waksman Institute of Microbiology at Rutgers University and the Foundation for Microbiology, which now bears his name. Invention Impact Selman Waksman discovered several important antibiotics, including Streptomycin, the first effective treatment for tuberculosis. Waksman coined the term "antibiotic" and developed procedures for finding, isolating, and screening them. His work freed tuberculosis patients from confinement in sanitaria. Waksman won the 1952 Nobel Prize for the body of his work. Inventor Bio Born near Kiev, in the Ukraine, Waksman traveled to the U.S. to study at Rutgers, later receiving his Ph.D. for the University of California. The recipient of many honors, Waksman won the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1952 and is credited with coining the term "antibiotic."

Pushing Maesod Special Economic Zone Act so Hard
Pushing Maesod Special Economic Zone Act so Hard
Maybe to avoid confusion, there are three different proposals for Mae Sot.
- Mae Sot Province (จังหวัดแม่สอด), or also as มหานครแม่สอด (see e.g. Manager from 2006)
- Mae Sot special administrative area (องค์กรปกครองส่วนท้องถิ่นรูปแบบพิเศษแม่สอด, for short นครแม่สอด) - the two local government units Mae Sot city and Tha Sai Luat subdistrict municipality will be merged into this new unit, which will have a special local administration outside the Thesaban law, probably similar with the Pattaya law. The law to create this new entity has already been approved by cabinet.
- Mae Sot special Economic Zone (เขตเศรษฐกิจพิเศษแม่สอด), which is not a central or local government unit, but as far as I understand it only an area with special economic rules, i.e. different taxation.
Even though Buengkarn is not officially new province yet, there is a taalk by Highway Dept to construct the 5th Bridge across Mekhong at Bueng Karn - with the investment of 1.5 billion Baht and the total distance of 1500 meter - with 4 lane highway - 50% Thai investment, 25% lao investment and 25% Vietnamese investment ... it woudl be amisture of the bridge across Mekhong at Nakhon Phanom - Kham Muan [Tha Khaek] and Chiang Khong - Huay Sai
At 18:20 on January 26th, the 3rd reading of the Bueng Kan law was approved by parliament by 342:0 votes, thus now the only missing step is the signature of HM the King and the publication in the Royal Gazette, and then to wait for another 90 days until the legislation becomes effective.
Source: แนวหน้า
Now, the Senate approving Bueng Karn Province Act with the following vote on 31 Jan 2011 : 84 Yeah 5 Nay - ready for furhter amendament by the Senate - and the process will eb speed up to become effective by 18 Jan 2011 - the expiration date for the Senate to allow the general election for the Senate from Bueng Karn in April 2011.
The amendament is to make Bueng Karn Province Act a day after the publication in Royal Garzette instead of 90--day waiting period, ready for the election of the Senate in April 2011.
Last edited by Wisarut; 01-02-11 at 10:52 AM. Reason: Addendum
I'm a bit confused, does the end of the term of the appointed Senators and therefore the selection of 74 new ones mean that if the province is created in time there will only be 73 appointed ones, and an election for a single senator in Bueng Kan will be held then? How about the senator from Nong Khai, who was election by the people of Bueng Kan as well? If I understand the constitution right he will serve the whole six years, so in a way the people of Bueng Kan have two senators. The term of the new senator Bueng Kan will be six years, or only until the term of the previous elected senators end?
Yah, If Buengkarn Province Act has become effective before the expiration of the Senate in April 2011, the Senate has no choice but to have the election for the Senator in Bueng Karn province ... alogn with the other 76 provinces while the number of appointed senators has to be cut down to 73 ...
From the way how I understand the constitution, the election of a senator for Bueng Kan will be done in the next round of senator election, i.e. in three years. And if the new province becomes effective after the new appointed senators are selected (not sure exactly, the magic date may even be the end of term), then 74 senators will be appointed and then Bueng Kan has to wait a total of 9 years till it gets its own senator - first wait 6 years till the appointed senator term ends and then 73 senators get chosen, and then another 3 years till the next election to fill up the senate to 150 senators again. In that case, Bueng Kan and Nong Khai would have to elect a senator together once despite being separate provinces already.
Buengkarn people wish to see Bueng Karn Province Act of BE 2554 become effective before 18 Feb 2011 to allow them to allow them to elect the senator on their own.
The Senate giving a nod on Bueng Karn Province Act of BE xxxx
Second reading: 52 Yeah 45 Nay
Third Reading: 70 Yeah 22 Nay
Nevertheless, the Appointed faction of the Senate (such as Senator Khamnoon) have given heavy criticism that the amendament to make Bueng Karn Province Act a day after the publication in Royal Garzette instead of 90-day waiting period is not a good thing as claimed by the elected faction of the Senate.
Senator Rattana Tohsittakul from BKK even says Nay to Bueng Karn Province Act by saying that this province should never be exist at the first place.
Now, PT men has asked Phuea phaendin to Obstruct Bueng Karn Province Act BE xxxx by asking Constitution Court whether Obstruct Bueng Karn Province Act BE xxxx is unconstitutional or otherwise since they know that PJT men are going to grab the PM position in this new province for sure as a grateful gesture even though Pheua Phaendin men are the one who initiate the plan to create Bueng Karn province.
The reason for the failture of Phra Narai province is due to the fact that those PT men refuse to use "Chaibadan Province" but coming up with the new name NOT correspondent to the name of the district and peoiple fel;t familar with Chaibadan more than Phra Narai ....

Looks like the attempt to speed up the act was not successful - it was not yet published in the Royal Gazette, and today is the magic date on which the term of the appointed senators end. And as it is a holiday, no announcements are published today. So it will now depend on either the interpretation of the constitution by the constitutional court, or a corresponding amendment of the constitution whether Bueng Kan will be able to elect a senator in 2014 when the term of elected senators end, or in 2020 as in 2014 only 76 senators can be elected - the 74 who will be appointed now will not end their term until 2017, and there are only 150 senators allowed by constitution.
Those PT men along with Phuea Phaendin men and even Senators soon to learn very hard the attempt to obstruct the bill to create Bueng karn province would become a big backlash on the upcoming election -
There is now the demonstration by 200 people of Buang Karn burning the effigies of PT men/Phua Phaendin men along with burnign down the salt and the chili while summons the curses and other damnations toward PT men/Phua Phaendin men who go against the public opinions by obstructing the bill to create Bueng karn province.
After demonstration, some out of 30 Sanators + 3 PT men who sign the petition to delay the creation of Buengkarn Province have no choice but to withdraw the signatures to invalidate the petition by not meetign the quorum ... so it is just a matter of time when HM has made the Royal assant on Royal Procliamation (Phra Boromraj-Ongkarn) to complete the process of creating Bueng Karn province.
Phuea Phaendin has quickly changed their plan before singing the pention - after watchign the demosntration from Buengkarn people ...

As the former head of the Democratic National Committee running in one of only two governors races this year, Virginia Democrat Terry McAuliffe has attracted a lot of outsized attention, with a million dollars supporting his candidacy from New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and scheduled campaign events with former President Bill Clinton.
A businessman and close friend and adviser of both Bill and Hillary Clinton, McAuliffe is currently leading his opponent, Republican state Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, by single digits, in the latest polls. The two will face off at the ballot in two weeks.
CNN has confirmed a new $1.1 million ad buy from the Independence USA PAC formed by Bloomberg, the multibillionaire who has spent millions of dollars supporting gun control throughout the country, via his political action committee and the group Mayors Against Illegal Guns.
"Ken Cuccinelli opposed closing the gun show loophole -- against comprehensive background checks at gun shows for criminals and the dangerously mentally ill. Siding with the NRA and undermining law enforcement," says the announcer in the new spot.
McAuliffe was aided on the campaign trail by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton this past Saturday. Starting Sunday, he will be joined by the former President at a series of five campaign events in Dale City, Richmond, Hampton, Norfolk and Blacksburg, Virginia.
The events with Bill Clinton will "discuss the importance of voting in this election and the clear choice facing Virginia voters between Terry McAuliffe's mainstream plan to create jobs and invest in education and Ken Cuccinelli's extreme ideological agenda," according to a statement from the McAuliffe campaign.
In an off-cycle election year, the only other state with a gubernatorial election is New Jersey, where Republican Gov. Chris Christie enjoys a wide margin in the polls. That puts the far-more competitive Virginia race in an outsized-light, drawing attention from Bloomberg and the Clintons for McAuliffe and Republicans such as former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, and Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, for Cuccinelli.
The heated race has seen Cuccinelli accusing McAuliffe of lacking the executive experience to lead a state while McAuliffe has hammered his opponent for right-wing views he's painted as too-extreme for swing state Virginia.
Cuccinelli has also attacked McAuliffe for the electric car company the Democrat co-founded that is now under federal investigation.
Key among Cuccinelli's attacks on McAuliffe are his political connections. In a blog post on his website, titled "Back to the Baggage," Cuccinelli's campaign promised to "explore McAuliffe's unique role at the intersection of big money and politics," for the Democrat's role in campaign contributors being granted a night in the Lincoln Bedroom of the White House during Clinton's presidency.
--CNN's Paul Steinhauser, Kevin Bohn and Bryan Koenig contributed to this report.
