Ridgely Fisk Green,Office of Public Health Genomics, Centers For Disease Control and Prevention
"I met three different women who had been tested [genetic testing for mutations in the BReast CAncer susceptibility (BRCA) genes] early on, in 1996, when the BRCA test first came out. They told me their family history story of mothers, aunts, uncles, and a dad who suffered from breast or ovarian or related cancers, and it was heartbreaking. But then the story changed with them. They were diagnosed with cancer, they got testing, and they shared this information with their family members. So they had stories of children and grandchildren—one woman even had great grandchildren—who were old enough to decide whether or not they wanted to be counseled and some decided to get testing. Many did not carry any of the mutations in the family, and others did. And those who found out that they were a mutation carrier, they had actual things to do. And none of them—none of those family members as we cascade down—have died of cancer." Summer Lee Cox, Oregon Public Health Division

Question & Answers
Collecting Gems
Is there anyway to get all the colored gems besides fighting people for them? When I go through the quests the only ones that I get are the red and orange. Plus, I feel like I have plateaued in the game. I am at level 45 in Houston and don't seem to be getting any stronger. I have yet to pay any REAL money towards this game.
Answer from: UR WRST NGHTMR!
There are lots of gems on quests. If your stuck on something usually if you keep on doing one quest youll get gems. Ive no lie completed one gem set (poker chips) without battling, so its possible to complete gem sets on quests. It would be cool if you could get gems you need in the daily chest instead of the so called "Good cards" in the chest. Plus DO NOT spend money on this game. Unless u get like the 1010 bucks thing. Trust me on that one. The reason i say that is because if you want good cards dont keep your hopes up.

Tonight I was going through these pictures and thinking about this kiddo and how much I love him. How much I wish I could remember every single thing he said this week that made me die laughing or every little thing he did that made me teary and proud of him. And to be totally and completely honest, I was really just thinking...he is so freaking cute and I want to eat his face! How is my kid so cute? I don't feel like that's braggy because I know everyone has those moments. Earlier today I was talking to one of my best friends from college who is at a totally different stage of life- she is at school, dating someone and close to getting engaged. We were talking about marriage and kids and the future and how to plan for it and kind of how to decide what is right when. When I was going through my blogging hiatus a few months ago I had this about 12-hour horrible experience that started when we were driving in the car to somewhere far away- and I realized I didn't finish school. Obviously I knew that. But I really realized it. My younger cousin was about to graduate, and I think that's what really started the tailspin- but then I realized that all my best friends had or were and I was like wait, what?! I didn't finish? why??? WHY. And do you know what, I know the exact moment that I was done. I was sitting on my bed, several months pregnant with Jax with a migraine, trying not to puke for probably the 8th time and trying to write an essay. I was sobbing on my bed and McKay came in and I just said, I can't do this. I have to be done. I have to finish later. And then Jax was born and McKay graduated and we moved to a place where he could get a good job. But in the car that day, I thought about the example I was setting for my future girls. Some trend I was starting for future generations. How my kids would view at me. And dozens of other things which I don't remember because it only lasted several hours and then it was done. Hallelujah! But it was just horrible. My worth as a mom and as a woman just tanked for a few hours. But today as we talked I told my friend that whenever she planned (or didn't plan) to have a baby and it happened, that it would be right. It would feel like a piece of your family was there that you didn't realize had been missing.
Sometimes when I give advice like that, I wonder what people really think. Like if they're picturing this person in grey sweats with raggedy hair and snot on her shoulder and a kid on her hip (probably true 80% of the time) proclaiming these things that just sound not up to parr with the world. I kind of think that there's this responsibility we feel sometimes to make a difference- and if not that, at the very least, prove that whatever we are doing, we are doing good. But that's hard, because sometimes we're just not. My mom didn't finish college either. She met my dad and they got married and then she got pregnant with me. As I've grown up, she's done lots of things- hobbies and a couple jobs, but to me, she's always just been my mom. She made the best beds on the couch when I was sick and she packed my lunch from first grade to my senior year. She feeds my babies so I can eat whenever we go there for dinner. She washed and folded all my laundry when we moved. She helped me paint my kitchen cabinets. She taught me how to nurse my kids. She talks me through all my mom worried and guilts. She made me want to be a mom because I saw how much she loved it every day. To me, nothing else ever seemed even close to as fun, or as fulfilling and especially as important as being a mom. It would be awesome to have a degree. I would love that! I would be proud and happy and grateful for it. But it wouldn't come close to the gratitude I feel for that kiddo who's going to sleep in my bed right now. The same bed I sat on crying with my last college essay.
I used to be really worried about my kids growing up. I wrote about it and thought about it and sometimes panicked because I was worrying about it so much, I felt like I wasn't enjoying the present. Like I was missing it. I've realized lately that the future doesn't make me sad if I know- like really know my kids every second it takes to get there. Like get on the floor with them and play for a whole afternoon. Or sit them on my lap and talk. Listen to what they say before bed. Stop rushing. Stop cleaning or cooking or editing pictures or whatever. Just know my kids, that day, everything about them, who they are, what they like, what they think, that day. Then I go to bed without the feeling that I missed something because I made sure that I didn't.
A lot of the time I feel like I need to prove something or make a difference in the world. But I'm making two differences- Jax and Jonah. I'll feed them and dress them and wipe their bums and their snot and peanut butter off their faces. And I'll teach them to mix cookies and color inside the lines and to cross monkey bars. They'll learn to share and notice others and make their beds. And I'll teach them why they're here and why they're important and why they're needed. And when they get older I hope they don't care that I didn't get my degree. I hope they know that I just couldn't wait to be their mom. And I hope they realize that the very best thing I knew to do for the world was to raise them.

Symi - an encore
... island was occupied during the Second World War and on leaving in 1945 the original houses were bombed. Many have now been restored whilst the visual treat of neoclassical houses heaped up the hill are a newer build (mostly 1970's). The whole town is subject to a heritage conservation order and every new house must be built in the same style adding to it's charm.

One challenge more and more enterprises are grappling with as they plan to adopt the cloud is data residency & sovereignty. They are finding that if they want to use a cloud service hosted outside of their borders, life can become quite complex. Perhaps it is a result of the often discussed "Snowden Effect," but no one can deny that countries and regions are putting some strict guidelines in place to ensure privacy of sensitive data that is moving outside of their borders. These three examples are indicative of what I foresee we will be seeing much more of:
Australia: The Privacy Amendment Act
The Privacy Amendment Act introduced many changes to the original Privacy Act and just recently went into effect. The Act includes a set of new privacy principles that cover the processing of personal information by government agencies and businesses. The new principles are called jointly called the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).
In the context of cloud adoption, agencies and businesses that deal with personal information are subject to APP8 (cross-border disclosure of personal information) which regulates the disclosure/transfer of personal information by an agency or business to a different entity (including a parent company) offshore. Before moving this type of data offshore, the Australian agency/business (Australian sender) must take reasonable steps to ensure the overseas recipient will comply with / not breach the APPs. The Australian Sender will remain liable for the overseas recipient's acts associated with any transferred personal information and, where relevant, be in breach of the APPs due to the overseas recipient's acts or omissions. In addition, APP11.1 (security of personal information) requires that an organization must "take reasonable steps to protect the personal information it holds from misuse".
Germany: The Federal Data Protection Act
Germany's Federal Data Protection Act is known as Bundesdatenschutzgesetz or BDSG, and these laws were reformed to cover a range of data protection-related issues. The key principles of the law state that organizations cannot collect any personally identifiable information without express permission from an individual (this includes obvious things like name and date of birth, as well as less obvious things like phone number, address and computer IP address). The permission that an individual grants must specify how, where, how long and for what purposes the data may be used and the individual can revoke the permission at any time.
Organizations must have policies, procedures and controls in place to protect all data types and categories that fall under the BDSG umbrella. Further, Germany does not recognize Safe Harbor regulations in the same way as other EU states (note - other EU states are re-examining this issue). It requires all parties involved in data transfer to assure that Safe Harbor requirements are met in a more formalized and structured manner.
In addition to the Federal Data Protection Act, components of the German criminal code regulate personal data protection, particularly for telecommunications, healthcare, and insurance companies. And all of the 16 German states have their own specific data protection laws pertaining to these areas.
United Kingdom: The UK Data Protection Act
The UK Data Protection Act is the UK's legislation covering the processing of data on people and is the main piece of legislation that governs the protection of personal data in the UK. The Act places clear demands upon those holding personal data in terms of the security that must be applied to protect it and it is necessary to apply a wide range of security measures to meet these standards:
- Data must be processed fairly and lawfully
- Data must be processed in accordance with the rights and freedoms of data subjects
- Data must be protected against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage
- Data must not be transferred to a country or territory outside the European Economic Area unless that country or territory protects the rights and freedoms of the data subjects.
The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) is the UK's independent authority set up to uphold information rights in the public interest. They recently provided guidance around the use of cloud computing reiterating that the responsibility for data protection remains with the data controller (the enterprise). And particular consideration should be given to mitigating the security risks relating to personal data since foreign law enforcement agencies may have the power to demand access to personal data stored in a foreign data center. Failing to protect private data can result in ICO-levied fines.
What is an organization to do? Look exclusively at cloud solutions that are based wholly in the country where they operate? Avoid cloud services altogether? Both of these approaches are impractical. Enterprises need to adopt cloud-based solutions, the best ones available irrespective of location, in order to drive their businesses and remain competitive. So what to do? Technology in the form of Cloud Data Control Gateways (CDCGs) using a technique called tokenization can help.
CDCGs are increasingly being used by global organizations to meet data residency requirements. Using tokenization, where clear text data is replaced by a surrogate token (check out a cool infographic describing the technique here), sensitive data can remain physically onsite while only surrogate replacement tokens go to the cloud for processing and storage. This solution enables enterprises to use public cloud applications no matter where they are located because actual data never needs to leave their in-country data center where the tokenization process occurs. It is a simple and straightforward way to adhere to complex data residency/sovereignty requirements. For those concerned about the "Snowden Effect," the reality is that any requests for information through one of their US-based cloud providers cannot result in compromising customer or corporate data without the enterprise being part of the conversation.
Of course, not all tokenization technologies are created equal. This solution only works when it is designed and deployed properly so as to fulfill all data obfuscation goals and objectives. Most important, it needs to be part of a gateway approach that ensures that the functionality of the cloud application is not disrupted for cloud end users. For example, users need to be able to use the cloud as if the gateway was not in the middle of the equation at all (e.g., they need to be able to Search or Sort on data that has been tokenized).
Please check out our website, which offers more insights on data sovereignty and tokenization with specific pages addressing laws in a number of countries as well as sector-based requirements for verticals like Banking and Healthcare. We also provide various reference pieces, including a broader whitepaper, International Privacy Laws.

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things. The difference ...

don't like something? fix it. stop complaining about it.
I don't think its a glitch, seeing as how its lasted for three generations.

- Radio in DP
- Week Days in DP
- Fame Checker in DP
- Dive in DP (Fog Clear sux)
I agree with all of those Maxim, except getting Dive. I HATED the HUGE amount of water in RSE. Drove me crazy.
don't like something? fix it. stop complaining about it.
* DP continuing the ability to re-battle Gym Leaders, like in Emerald
* I agree with Maxim about the Fame Checker
* Box's features being in Colosseum and/or XD
* Speaking of Colosseum/XD, I think Genius Sonority should've cancelled Colosseum and put everything from that game in XD instead.
* The Battle Frontier included in FR/LG instead of Emerald; that way the Anime's decision to have the BF in Kanto would've made more sense.
* The max effort point total being higher, or at least evenly divisible by 4. The latter also applies to the EP cap for each individual stat.
* The badges appearing in color in the GBA versions
* A Tauros/Miltank prevo. I'm surprised we didn't get one this generation, with all the other gender-specific evolutions we got.
* Empoleon able to learn Luster Cannon without a TM

The amount of water in RSE made me want to kill myself as well, Paperfairy. It was way to much! It was like, everywhere!!
- more new pokes for D/P
- for XD and Colleseum, more of a handheld game storyline, rather then the storyline with the snagging crap
Here's one thing:
Probably more of the sort of unfixed glitch because it *hasn't* been dealt with earlier (the "If it worked in the past..." sort of mentality, probably on top of "who cares"). Then again, when Nido anything is used at all, it's usually males so...
Regardless, it's inconsistant considering everything else says they should.
*HMs as extra moves. Or good moves. Not crappy moves that eat space and forces you to lug HM Slaves around.
*No exclusive TMs. Argh. Die.
*See above, just with move tutors. Let us get those moves on multiple pokemon without having to buy two carts and/or resetting the game multiple times, dammit.
*Easier ways of reaching level 100. There's no reason why your last opponent in the game shouldn't have a full team of 6 level 100 pokemon.
*Easier ways of getting the promotional pokemon. They're wisening up now, letting us download them off other games, using scannable cards and such, but please, no more "be at real world area x at time period y or you'll never ever get this pokemon" crap.
*Less ridiculous and complicated ways to manipulate stats. You KNOW people will crack the system within weeks anyway, so give people a chance to compete with others without having to spend ages on this IV/EV crap. Egg moves? Sure. Natures? Yay. Having to fight 100 Diglett in a row before levelling up a pokemon for real? NO.
Plushies are good friends.
They don't yell or argue.
They're always well behaved.
They're cuddly.
And if you're angry, you can whack 'em around like nuts!

I was surprised they didn't do that in DP. I suppose with Route 216, 217, and Snowpoint, they kinda have it... might've been planned but never implemented. Who knows?
one sentence porn meme!
pokemon anon kink meme! careful it's rated 'r' for 'really sexy'
- More new pokemon in DP, instead of lazy developers just sticking a bunch of evolutions and pre-evos in there, so they didn't have to fill as much space
-Move tutors that teach useful moves that level 9 pikachu learn (thunder wave anyone?)

The stylists at Reema Salon cut and color their clients' tresses using gleaming scissors and brushes coated with color glazes. In addition to making hair look good on the outside, they fortify strands with traditional and Moroccan deep-conditioning treatments.
At Boston Cosmetic and Laser Center, clients can literally change before their own eyes. Here, a staff of professional beauty experts perform services designed to enhance appearances without invasive surgery. Many treatments focus on reversing signs of aging?injections of Botox, for example, relax wrinkle-causing muscles, while Ultherapy tones the face and neck with ultrasound energy and microscopic barbells. Other options, including laser hair removal and VelaShape body-contouring, focus on fine-tuning torsos and limbs.
The warm and serene Winchester day spa specializes in customized skin treatments, and its highly experienced staff will lavish your mug with a rejuvenating personal pore pampering that leaves you looking as radiant as the smug neighborhood glowworm. The 60-minute facial is customized to meet the specific needs and wants of your skin, and is complemented by a gentle microdermabrasion treatment to buff and exfoliate away dead dermal cells and Hollywood "old person" makeup—revealing the fresher, younger underlayer of skin lurking under the surface like a sexy shark. Along the way, moisturizing and hydrating masks will keep your skin at its freshest, despite any wilting glares from the jealously inflamed summer sun outside. Extractions will also be performed as needed until your face is state-dinner ready.
The staff at Pigmenta Permanent Cosmetics believes that beauty should be effortless, which is why they've curated a selection of services designed to minimize time in front of the makeup mirror. Permanent makeup artist Julia enhances eyes and lips with hypoallergenic ion-oxide pigments custom-matched to the client's skin-tone and cosmetic preference. Instead of relying on a machine or stencils, Julia performs the tattoo-like procedure by hand, allowing her to impart a soft, natural look and even mimic the look of individual eyebrow hairs. Meanwhile, lash specialists enhance flutterers with everything from semi-permanent extensions to lash dipping—a process that allows clients to ditch their mascara for up to six weeks. Pigmenta's staff also invites customers to stop in for quick threading sessions, where sturdy lengths of thread allow aestheticians to swiftly remove excess hair from the face and brows or quickly sew it back on if the client changes their mind.
Over the course of her two-decade career, makeup artist and aesthetician Robin Erb has dolled up brides for more than 150 weddings and helped her studio win praise on CBS Boston's list of "Best Places for Eyelash Extensions." Using unique methods she learned throughout the years, she flatters clients' facial features with expertly applied makeup and skin-rejuvenating treatments. Instead of blowing really hard on strands until they fall out, she swiftly removes unwanted hair from the premises using soy-based wax, which is easy on sensitive skin. Even the wildest brows leave Robin Erb Skin Care domesticated and well-behaved after an eyebrow maintenance session, which factors in the client's face shape and features.
As a creative force we inspire our stylists and clients by defining the cutting edge of the industry. We're a nurturing, vibrant, creative community whose unique talent and expertise defines trends and creates new standards in the beauty world.

NEW YORK – Honeywell International Inc. said it plans to more than double spending on acquisitions over the next five years, to $10 billion or more, as the manufacturer seeks to speed sales growth.
Making those deals by 2018 may add $8 billion to revenue, pushing the total to $59 billion from 2013's $39.1 billion, Morris Township, N.J.-based Honeywell said Wednesday. Purchases in the past five years totaled about $4.7 billion, data compiled by Bloomberg show.
"We have a great pipeline of potential targets," Chief Executive Dave Cote said in an investor meeting Wednesday. "I'd like to be able to spend $10 billion on M&A; I can promise you I'm only going to do it if it's smart."
Honeywell's product line ranges from car coolants to fighter-jet parts to thermostats, giving the company access to consumer and industrial markets. Profit margins will expand by as much as about 3.7 percentage points to 20 percent by 2018, according to Honeywell.
"Our expansion in key high-growth regions and ability to localize our capabilities is another great example of how we'll drive accelerated growth over the next five years," Cote said.
Cote said last year he was evaluating about 100 companies as potential acquisition targets, with a focus on deals of less than $1 billion because they are easier to assimilate.
The company's finances and increased management experience on buying companies would allow it to "easily accommodate" an acquisition of up to $4 billion, he said Wednesday.

Accident leaves 4,800 without power
Published: Wednesday, September 8, 2010 at 8:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, September 9, 2010 at 7:40 a.m.
OCALA -- A falling tree cut power lines that left close to 5,000 Ocala city residents without power Wednesday afternoon, according to city officials.
By 7:30 p.m., power had been restored for all but 200 or so customers. As of 5:09 a.m. Thursday, Ocala Electric Utilities reported that power was fully restored.
Mike Poucher, supervisor of engineer and system's control for OEU, told the Star-Banner that a tree crashed into two power lines – transmission and distribution – on Southwest Third Street, near the Ocala Police Department.
Poucher said the transmission line feeds into a downtown substation, which in turn is connected to customers.
As a result of the fallen tree, 4,800 customers in downtown Ocala -- including the Historic District -- were affected by outage.
Poucher said crews were diligently working to restore power to everyone, and as of 7:30 p.m. only around 200 customers near the site of the downed power lines were still without electricity.
