Firefox: We're not trying to replace Android or iOS
BARCELONA, Spain--While Mozilla's Mitchell Baker blasted the dominating platforms--Google's (NASDAQ:GOOG) Android and Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) iOS--earlier this week during an evening keynote, the company has stated it isn't trying to replace them.
In a presentation here at Mobile World Congress, Mozilla's Christian Heilmann stated, "We're not trying to replace Android or iOS." Instead, Heilmann explained that Firefox OS serves more as a replacement for the OS running on old Nokia phones, etc. Millions of people want to get phones and to get on the Web, he said.
In this vein, he echoed the sentiments of Mozilla CEO Gary Kovacs at an earlier panel this week titled, "Reaching the Next Billion," which explored increasing mobile broadband access in developing nations.
"The next two billion are coming online in the next five plus years," said Kovacs, adding that "these next two billion are not going to be anything like the first two."
For one, many of these new mobile adopters could be experiencing the Internet for the first time via mobile rather than via the desktop. Secondly, if Firefox and other HTML5-based operating systems catch on, more developers may be working with HTML5 rather than coding native apps.
Heilmann said, "As a developer I hate writing code for each platform out there." Interestingly, Heilmann noted "a lot of apps in App Store and Google Play are [built with] HTML5; they've just been converted with PhoneGap [an open source mobile development framework]."
Heilmann did not have any information on when any Firefox devices would be coming out.
"The good thing about HTML5 is that our end-users are consuming it in the same thing our developers are developing in," said Heilmann.

Hadleigh & GG 2012
Final Final
door Erin Burrough Photography
I am a photographer that has become a book making mad scientist. Since I was very young I have always known I would be a photographer. And with that I took photos ALL the time. Back in the day, the prints were inserted into an "Album", which I have 40 of just my teenage years. I was always obsessed with how each photo was placed in the album, time line and photo flow. Hence, now as a photographer, have used that obsession to design, create and tell a story with photography and text. Whether it be my photography or your words and photos, I can help you tell your story. If you only have prints, I can help. If you only have files, I can help. If you only have a vision, I can help. Cheers to you and to books that will always be there to tell a story.

In my early days of traveling for work, I'd often find myself at some crappy bar and grill (one of many chains that all serve the same terrible food) debating between ordering wings or ribs… about a year ago I came across an idea in the comment section of a web blog. In fact, it was this blog post… one of the BEST Blog posts of all time! The idea was to take chicken skin, wrap it around a rib, fry it, and toss in buffalo sauce.

The Sauce:
8oz Red Bull
1-2 Habenero Pepper
2 TBLSPN Butter
1 TBLSPN Chili-Garlic Sauce.
Cut small slits into the Habenero pepper and put in a small pot with Red Bull. Bring it to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Bring the liquid back to a boil until it reduces to 1/3 the original volume. Add the chili-garlic sauce and butter, wisk and dress the wings while they're still hot.

Verdigre Clerk Agrees to Civil Fine
VERDIGRE (AP) - A former Verdigre village clerk has been fined $6,000 by the Nebraska Accountability & Disclosure Commission for abusing her position as a public officer. The commission found Alisha Bartling made a housing loan to herself and her husband. It also found she had made loans to her husband's business and brother-in-law and failed to keep accurate records of the loans or enforced timely payments on them. The commission voted unanimously Friday to impose the $6,000 fine. Bartling, who was named the 2011 Outstanding Clerk of the Year, agreed to the fine. The commission's finding and fine are separate from three criminal charges of theft that Bartling faces.

Dickson City civic center director suspended without pay
DICKSON CITY — Borough council suspended without pay Tuesday the civic center director accused of taking almost $20,000 from the center over four years.
Rebecca Flannery's reinstatement is pending the outcome of the charges, council President Barbara Mecca said.
Council scheduled a Loudermill hearing for Mrs. Flannery two weeks ago, but she did not attend, Ms. Mecca said. The suspension passed council unanimously.
A Loudermill hearing is an opportunity for an employer and a public employee to sit down and ask questions on any particular matter. The hearing is part of the due-process requirement that must be provided to a government employee before his or her employment status changes.
Mrs. Flannery, 51, 100 Huntington Drive, turned herself in on Aug. 6 on charges of access device fraud, receiving stolen property and several counts of theft. She has served as director at the center for about 10 years and had been on medical leave since April.
Meanwhile, another special meeting followed to discuss the preliminary police budget.
Chief William Bilinski told council the possible budget includes line items for the purchase of two additional police vehicles, totaling around $80,000, and new bulletproof vests, estimated to cost $10,000. The borough currently has eight police vehicles; the department's vests expire at the end of the year.
Council Vice President Jeffrey Kovaleski questioned Chief Bilinski about the possibility of leasing new vehicles. The chief said he would look into it.

September 17, 2013
Odontologia, or toothache, is one of the most common types of pain experienced by adults and children. The pain is often severe, leading to disruption of daily activities, including missed school and work, sleep loss, problems eating, and mood alterations.
But help is on the way. With a $150,000 grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Jennifer L. Gibbs, an assistant professor of endodontics at the College of Dentistry, will investigate the neurobiology of one of the most striking causes of odontologia—pulpitis, or inflammation of the dental pulp, the densely nerve-filled soft tissue contained within the tooth. Pulpitis is commonly diagnosed when a cold stimulus on the tooth causes an exaggerated or prolonged painful response relative to healthy control teeth. Treatment of pulpitis currently involves an irreversible, invasive, and costly clinical procedure, such as root canal treatment or tooth extraction. Understanding the neurobiology of the dental pulp will ultimately help to identify novel tooth pain management strategies.

BioShock Infinite developer Irrational Games has confirmed that a round of layoffs has hit the studio. Kotaku reports that around eight employees were laid off this week.
"In an effort to streamline our processes I am sad to confirm that we let go a total of eight employees today," a representative told Kotaku. "Any studio's greatest asset is the group of people that make up the whole, and as such it was extremely hard to make this decision and there is never a good time for this to happen. As co-workers and friends, we wish them the very best."
Irrational is currently working on the two-part Burial at Sea DLC add-on, which takes protagonists Booker and Elizabeth to the underwater setting of Rapture, which was where the first game took place. The first add-on, Clash in the Clouds, was released in July.
Irrational said that this round of layoffs will have no affect on the development of the DLC in any way. The company did not disclose if those affected by the layoffs were full-time employees or contract help brought in to work on Infinite or the various DLC projects.

Marshall County officials on Tuesday honored longtime county sheriff Robert "Bob" Lightner, who died last week.
Commissioners presented a proclamation in honor of Lightner, who served for 16 years as sheriff, from 1977-84 then again from 1989-96. He was remembered as a veteran, magistrate, city councilman, member of the state Democrat Executive Committee and, most of all, a family man.
Marshall County Chief Deputy Kevin Cecil said the Marshall County Sheriff's Department paid its respects to Lightner over the weekend, posting an honor guard during viewings on Saturday and Sunday and providing a 10-cruiser escort for the funeral procession to Mount Rose Cemetery in Moundsville.
"It was an extremely nice representation and our privilege to do that for him," said Cecil. "He was part of this agency for a long time."
Commissioner Don Mason served as acting president for Tuesday's meeting because commission President Jason "Jake" Padlow was unable to attend.
Moundsville Councilman David Wood thanked the commission for its assistance in the "Unifying Moundsville" comprehensive project.
"We were able to meet our goal thanks to what you did," said Wood. The "Unifying Moundsville" project is a community visioning and planning project meant to shape the city's comprehensive plan.
The comprehensive plan will be a document to guide all city policies and programs.
When asked, Wood also said that the construction of a new Sleep Inn in Moundsville is going well.
Craig White also appeared before the commission to promote events set to happen in October at Grand Vue Park. White is the general manager of the park, and had taken the commissioners on a tour of the park after the previous week's meeting.
Commissioner Brian Schambach asked White if the new zipline at Grand Vue Park has lived up to expectations since being installed over the summer.
White said that the zipline did well over the summer, though the change of season has drastically cut the number of people riding it.
"People all over the country are seeing it now," said White. "We're really poised to take off with it next year."
Rich Lucas spoke briefly to the commission on behalf of the Marshall County Health Department, explaining the requirements and presenting the guidelines for vehicle parks in Marshall County, on which campers can reside.
Lucas said that before any camp site is set up, the plans for it are supposed to be submitted to the health department before breaking ground. According to Lucas, there are currently 38 campsites in Marshall County.
Lucas said each camper must have its own 1,000 gallon holding system for sewage, and $1,000 must be submitted to the state for a permit just to get started.

When will we learn?February 16,2013
When will we learn?
More and more voices are warning us that big wind is not the way to go. Its becoming a strong chorus that includes state senators, knowledgeable thinkers who understand the technical, environmental, financial and political details, Jeff Danziger, a woman whos an off-the-grid farmer, and even a fourth-grade boy representing a generation whose future is at stake.
And still there are others, some prominent, some ordinary citizens like myself, who warn against the destructive impact of industrial wind plants. Its not just the ugliness of it, but also the fact that,like so many past destructive undertakings, desecrating the natural beauty of our mountains would be futile as well, because, as is being patiently explained by expert after expert, it stands to benefit only the wind industry.
Theres deep wisdom in a moratorium on building further greed-inspired monstrosities. It would give us no choice but to be more frugal (or rather, less wasteful) with the energy we are getting now. We might find out we dont need more energy, we dont need to use more and more energy-gobbling stuff more and more of the time, we dont need lights on where theyre not in use, and instead we may be surprised by how well supplied we are if we just conserve.
Dam-crippled rivers, mountain removal for coal, fracking-poisoned land and water, the curses of tarsands, oil spills and nuclear accidents when will we ever learn? How many more outrageous storms and power outages do we need before we finally realize were devouring the very Mother thats nurturing us body and soul?

If you haven't experienced Fulda Gap in the past - DO NOT MISS 2015's game. We are DIFFERENT from the rest. Our field is in the foothills of North Carolina - just outside of Hickory in the humble limits of Taylorsville. We PRIDE ourselves on making this game ABOUT THE PLAYER. We love our teams, and sure - celebrity appearances are great - but what we like most is people coming together to share in an incredible weekend of the sport. Parents can feel COMFORTABLE introducing their teens to a big scenario event at our game. We invite vendors who SUPPORT THE PLAYER. We invite up and coming vendors with new product to introduce to THE PLAYER. We will always be a primitive field, with few bells and whistles, to keep the costs TO THE PLAYER reasonable, and affordable.

- Head count
- Turnover
- Cost per employee
Keep in mind that "measuring" and "tracking" are two differentthings, and that measuring isn't very useful until you start tracking and making comparisons. Single-point measurement, in and of itself, is of limitedusefulness. However, the regular measurement of key pieces of information overtime and the correlation between various measurements--including correlationwith non-HR data--can be extremely valuable.
Head count
The first thing to track is head count. Track your head count not only by thetotal organization once a year, but also cost center by cost center, departmentby department, and job type by job type. Do it every month. Make a line graph toshow changes over time. Add another line to the chart, such as revenue orproduction volume. How closely does one line lead or lag the other? Trackinghead count in combination with non-HR data demonstrates relationships between HRfunctions/activities and the rest of the organization's operations. When youcan see trends and relationships, you can begin to plan and project.
Something as basic as head count can have meaning even to shareholders if youlook at it according to the focus of the organization. At the World Bank'sInternational Finance Corporation (IFC), where Joe Fucello is the HR programofficer, it is important that the approximately 2,000 employees berepresentative of the countries where the World Bank makes its investments.Fucello monitors head count by nationality.
Tracking turnover can be extremely valuable, especially if you can go beyondthe basics of turnover for the organization as a whole. Turnover that ismeasured department by department or branch by branch, and measured every month,begins to reveal patterns. Turnover that is measured according to race, gender,or age group begins to reveal even more interesting patterns that might suggestpoor management techniques, or a supervisor who is not skilled in avoidingdiscrimination.
Measuring turnover according to the hiring source--your various recruiters orrecruiting agencies--can help to determine whether you're getting your money'sworth from each source. Fucello is concerned about retaining his organization'svery best performers, so he tracks turnover by job type and by length ofservice. He's starting to see patterns after about a year of doingmeasurements, and now he is beginning to explore the reasons behind thepatterns.
Jeff Cottle, senior vice president of human resources and organizationalstrategy at SCT, a global information technology company focused on educationalinstitutions, also tracks turnover by employee type. He's interested incontrollable voluntary turnover (to help focus the efforts of his employeerelations staff) and the reasons behind involuntary turnover. He measures "newhire" turnover (employees who left before 18 months) and "tenured"turnover. He closely monitors turnover among the professional services groupbecause those employees are billable consultants who produce revenue for SCT.
All this measurement takes a lot of time, but it's well worth the effort, inCottle's mind: "Our perspective on the use of metrics . . . is based on ourbelief that human-capital metrics have a direct correlation to financialmetrics."
Cost per employee
Cost per employee helps you examine the value of every aspect of humanresources management: compensation programs, incentive and bonus plans, employeebenefits, training, staffing levels, and more. Again, correlation is the key.The salary or training costs per employee for Department ABC may be the highestin the company, but if the revenue from Department ABC is also the highest,perhaps those costs are justified. On the other hand, if revenue from DepartmentABC is not the highest in the company, you need to ask questions.
If the training cost per employee for Course #1 is consistently high, thatmay also be acceptable if productivity consistently improves among the employeeswho take the course. If productivity does not improve, perhaps you're spendingtoo much to deliver Course #1.

15 National Championships
They've got a name for the winners of the world, and i want a name when i lose, They call Alabama the Crimson Tide, call me Deacon Blue.( Steely Dan 1978 )
Alabama picked by 4 out of 7 in the title game.
Not only does Vandy get to a bowl game BUT is picked to win by everyone on that panel!
The shocker to me is Dennis Dodd actually picking us to beat the spread.
I'll always look back as I walk away
This memory will last for eternity
And all of our tears will be lost in the rain
Til I find my way back to your arms again
Only a few people in the world have the ability to remember everything. I'm one of them. Pick any day of my life, and I can tell you what I saw or heard.
The best example of "hands off" parenting was Darth Vader.
Can't believe people are taking Northwestern over Mississippi State. Am I missing something or was Northwestern that good this year?
They beat Vandy... And that's it.

Ole Miss is favored . One guy picks Pitt to win but Ole Miss versus the spread. He can't win them both.
I'm so happy so many of the sportswriters are giving ND so much love - no was we come into this game anything but fired up.
DISCLAIMER: I hereby reserve the right to discuss any game on the Alabama schedule I wish, at any time during the season, as I am not a part of the Crimson Tide football program. I am simply a fan who has no impact outside of the money I provide the athletic department via ticket and memorabilia purchases and the energy I can provide when I attend the games. ©2009-2016, crimsonaudio
Sure looks strange Texas not favored in their game . Going to get bit to death by Beavers .

The U.S. Department of Education announced today (Oct. 5) the awarding of $38.8 million in grants to 11 states from a new Safe and Supportive School program. The timing comes just days after a media blitz about the suicides of five teenagers, at least four of whom were bullied for being gay or being perceived as gay. But anybody who knows Washington knows Tuesday's grants weren't made in reaction to the recent news.
"It would be inaccurate to say we're doing this as a response to recent events," said Kevin Jennings, Assistant Deputy Secretary for the Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools (OSDFS) at the U.S. Department of Education.
Jennings, the nation's top official for promoting safe schools, said the latest string of teen suicides driven by anti-gay bullying is, sadly, not a new trend.
"The problem of greater rates of suicide among LGBT youth being linked to school bullying is something that has been documented and known for a very long time," said Jennings.
Jennings has some experience in the matter. As a teenager, he himself attempted suicide and had been the subject of relentless bullying in middle school and early high school. He founded the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) in 1990 to help promote safe and respectful climates for LGBT youth in schools. And the week in April 2009 when the Obama administration offered him the position as head of OSDFS, news broke about the bullying-related suicide of 11-year-old Carl Joseph Walker-Hoover of Springfield, Massachusetts, who had been the subject of anti-gay taunts. That news, he said, inspired him to take the job.
Jennings, in an interview, said Education Secretary Arne Duncan has also been long aware that "bullying and harassment are first and foremost an education issue," because he understands kids will not want to be in school if they are bullied and harassed.
Jennings points to Duncan's hiring of him for the safe schools position as proof of the Secretary's commitment, and notes that Duncan met with GLSEN student leaders even before that.
Duncan also released a statement October 1 in response to the news of the recent suicides. But Jennings notes that he and Duncan have been prioritizing efforts to prevent bullying since they each took office.
The Safe and Supportive Schools grants announced this week are to "measure school safety" and "to help intervene in those schools with the greatest safety needs." The eleven states chosen to receive this initial round of grants are: Arizona, California, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, South Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.
The grants require the selected states to implement in-depth surveys of students, family, and staff about school safety issues and "direct grant monies to the schools that the students say have the biggest problems," and to the problems the students identify as the largest, said Jennings. Directing funds based on student feedback, he noted, is a new approach to school safety, of which bullying is a subset.
"This is a major step forward," said Jennings, " . . . because the only people who really know what's going on in the schools are the kids."
The program requires a four-year commitment by the states to survey schools, direct money to solving the problems, resurvey, and make the survey results public.
For fiscal year 2011, OSDFS has asked for $165 million in order to expand the program to additional states.
Last August, OSDFS convened the department's first-ever Bullying Prevention Summit, with government leaders from several departments, including Secretary Duncan, who gave the keynote. Also attending were Surgeon General Regina Benjamin and 150 community leaders from around the country. Jennings said that, while many people and organizations have been working on bullying for years, "Never had they all been in the same room before."
"We brought together everybody—from GLSEN to the Christian Educators Association," said Jennings.
During his keynote, Secretary Duncan said it was "an absolute travesty of our educational system" when students worry about being bullied at school "or suffer discrimination and taunts because of their ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, disability, or a host of other reasons."
Summit attendees heard "incredibly disturbing reports" about the bullying of Muslim students and students with disabilities, among other things, said Jennings.
The next step will be to develop a plan based on the issues raised at the Summit. A federal task force, with representatives from multiple offices within the Departments of Justice, Health and Human Services (HHS), Agriculture, Defense, and Interior is meeting every two weeks. A larger group, including non-governmental leaders, meets once a month.
Jennings would not give a date for when a plan will be ready. He said he wants to make sure it is "very detailed and very specific" and that "everybody's on board." And he said the department would hold a second summit next year.
"We are committed to a multi-year effort on this."
One near-term action will come from the Education Department's Office of Civil Rights (OCR). Secretary Duncan explained in his keynote that OCR would be "issuing policy guidance to schools" to explain that bullying can include racial, sexual, or disability harassment that is prohibited by civil rights laws. It would also outline the legal responsibilities schools have "to protect students from discriminatory harassment."
Russlyn Ali, Assistant Secretary for OCR, noted in her speech at the Summit that this includes sexual harassment "when students don't conform to traditional gender roles."
A spokesperson for the department said they hope to issue the guidance "in the next few months."
The approach is similar to that taken by the U.S. Justice Department, which intervened in January in the case of a New York teen who was bullied and physically hurt for being effeminate. Justice Department lawyers argued that Title IX, which prohibits gender-based discrimination, also applied to gender expression. In an out-of-court settlement, the school district agreed to pay the boy $50,000, legal fees, and the cost of therapy.
Jennings said the OSDFS has also pulled together the many disparate resources the government has on bullying into a new consolidated Web site, Bullyinginfo.org, which the office launched in August.
It has also worked with the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), part of HHS, on a Stop Bullying Now campaign initially aimed at middle school students. The Education Department provided additional funding to expand the campaign to elementary schools. (The "What Adults Can Do" section of the site—stopbullyingnow.hrsa.gov—includes a page on anti-gay bullying.)
Jennings notes, however, that there is no federal law on bullying and "no specific protections for students based on sexual orientation and gender identity." As part of the executive branch, he says, "we are given authority to address issues by Congress, so at this point, we're trying to find, in the absence of a national bullying law, what constructive steps we can take."
There are bills in Congress, however, that would provide such laws. The Student Nondiscrimination Act (SNDA) would prohibit discrimination—including harassment—on the basis of real or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity in any program or activity receiving federal funds. The Safe Schools Improvement Act (SSIA) would require schools that receive federal funds to implement and report on anti-bullying programs that include bullying based on a student' actual or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity, among other attributes. Versions of both bills are still pending committee action in the House and Senate. They would need to be reintroduced if they are not passed before the end of the current session of Congress.
Federal departments and their employees are prohibited by law from lobbying Congress about specific legislation, however, so the Department of Education cannot move the legislation forward.
On the state and local levels, Jennings said, the department can provide "guidance and resources," such as the Summit and the Safe and Supportive Schools grants. But state and local entities, he said, are "the guiding force in American education," because "ninety-two cents of every dollar spent on K through 12 education in America comes from state and local taxes."
The department is "trying to provide some leadership," Jennings said, but adds, "Anybody who thinks the U.S. Department of Education singlehandedly is going to end the bullying crisis is deeply misguided. We have a very important role to play, but we cannot do this without state and local departments of education, without community-based organizations, without the clergy, without individual citizens, without parents, without kids themselves, also stepping up and showing leadership."

Hemochromatosis Gene Test (HFE Test)
Hemochromatosis Gene Test (HFE Test)
Test Overview
Hemochromatosis gene (HFE) testing is a blood test used to check for hereditary hemochromatosis, an inherited disorder that causes the body to absorb too much iron. The iron then builds up in the blood, liver, heart, pancreas, joints, skin, and other organs.
In its early stages, hemochromatosis can cause joint and belly pain, weakness, lack of energy, and weight loss. It can also cause scarring of the liver ( cirrhosis ), darkening of the skin, diabetes , infertility , heart failure , irregular heartbeats (arrhythmia), and arthritis . But many people do not have symptoms in the early stages.
In men, hereditary hemochromatosis is usually found at ages 40 to 60. In women, it is not usually found until after menopause because, until that time, women regularly lose blood and iron during their monthly periods.
Why It Is Done
HFE testing is used to find out if a person has an increased chance of having hemochromatosis. It is often recommended for people who have a close family member—parent, brother, sister, or child—with this disease.
This test might be done if you have high iron levels in your blood. This test helps to find out if you have hemochromatosis.
HFE testing locates and identifies mutations in the HFE genes. These gene mutations are called C282Y and H63D.
How To Prepare
Generally, no special preparation is required before having a hemochromatosis gene test.
Genetic test results often have ethical, legal, or social implications. You may want to talk to a genetic counsellor before making a decision about testing. Genetic counsellors are trained to explain the test and its results clearly. A genetic counsellor can help you make well-informed decisions.
Talk to your doctor about any concerns you have regarding the need for the test, its risks, how it will be done, or what the results will mean. To help you understand the importance of this test, fill out the medical test information form (What is a PDF document?) .
How It Is Done
You might have a cheek test or a blood test.
For a cheek test, a health professional will gently swab or scrape the inside of your cheek to get a sample of cells.
For a blood test, the health professional taking a sample of your blood will:
- Wrap an elastic band around your upper arm to stop the flow of blood. This makes the veins below the band larger so it is easier to put a needle into the vein.
- Clean the needle site with alcohol.
- Put the needle into the vein. More than one needle stick may be needed.
- Attach a tube to the needle to fill it with blood.
- Remove the band from your arm when enough blood is collected.
- Put a gauze pad or cotton ball over the needle site as the needle is removed.
- Put pressure on the site and then put on a bandage.
How It Feels
The blood sample is taken from a vein in your arm. An elastic band is wrapped around your upper arm. It may feel tight. You may feel nothing at all from the needle, or you may feel a quick sting or pinch.
If you get a cheek test, you will feel gentle pressure on the inside of your cheek from the swab.
You may worry or feel nervous before you have the test or while you are waiting for the results.
There is very little chance of a problem from having a cheek test or from having a blood sample taken from a vein. If you have a blood test:
- You may get a small bruise at the site. You can lower the chance of bruising by keeping pressure on the site for several minutes.
- In rare cases, the vein may become swollen after the blood sample is taken. This problem is called phlebitis. A warm compress can be used several times a day to treat this.
- Ongoing bleeding can be a problem for people with bleeding disorders. Aspirin, warfarin (Coumadin), and other blood-thinning medicines can make bleeding more likely. If you have bleeding or clotting problems, or if you take blood-thinning medicine, tell your doctor before your blood sample is taken.
Hemochromatosis gene (HFE) testing is a blood test used to check for hereditary hemochromatosis, a disorder that is passed from a parent to a child (inherited) and causes the body to absorb too much iron. This HFE gene test is usually not used to check for other, less common causes of inherited hemochromatosis.
Mutations (C282Y or H63D) are not found in the HFE gene. Normal results are called negative.
Mutations (C282Y or H63D) are found in the HFE gene test. Abnormal results are called positive.
An abnormal test result does not mean that you have hemochromatosis or that you will have hemochromatosis. It means that you have a mutation in the HFE gene. Ask your doctor or a genetic counsellor to help you understand your test results.
What Affects the Test
There is a very small chance that the results of a hemochromatosis gene test may not be accurate if you have had a blood transfusion done within a week of the test.
What To Think About
- If you are thinking about having genetic testing, talk with your doctor about the benefits as well as the possibility of insurance, employment, or other discrimination based on test results. An HFE test result is private information.
- The information obtained from an HFE test can have a big impact on your life. Genetic counsellors are trained to help you understand your chance for having a child with an inherited (genetic) disease. A genetic counsellor can help you make well-informed decisions. Ask to have genetic counselling before making a decision about HFE testing.
- HFE testing is not able to predict whether you will have hemochromatosis. Although the test locates the most common HFE mutations, there may be other HFE mutations that the test does not find. You may have HFE mutations and not have the diseases or you may have symptoms of the disease but gene testing is does not find any mutations.
- HFE gene testing may identify the cause of high iron levels and eliminate the need for other tests, such as a liver biopsy .
- Iron and ferritin levels may also be checked at the same time as a hemochromatosis gene test.

After many successful years as event designers on the Manhattan scene, married couple Anthony Brown and Sora Lee decided to bring their special brand of elegance and expertise to Bergen, establishing Visions in the spring of 2012.
In a business where romantic settings are of paramount importance, these two design professionals have created a series of vignettes for (201) that will set the fires of passion ablaze this Valentine's Day. Organic materials are combined with modern and sophisticated elements to create charming and inspiring aesthetics.
"I fell in love with his flowers before I fell in love with the man with the talent," Lee says. "Our paths crossed professionally, and we quickly realized that there was an enormous chemistry."
Brown agrees emphatically.
"Sora and I," he says, "when we first met there was an energy, an understanding and an appreciation for design and that's what brought us together – the love of design and beauty. That was the nucleus, and from there we fell in love."
Lee and Brown collaborated so successfully on projects that it brought them together personally. They believe the diversity of their cultural and professional backgrounds is what makes their work stand apart. The veritable yin and yang of event design, the couple combines their individual strengths with their combined passion.
Lee is more the front person in the business – clients express their ideas and dreams to her. Brown is the person who executes those visions and makes clients' dreams come true.
Brown says one key to their business's success is the personal relationships they forge with clients.
"You really have to embrace the client, their life and desires and what they want us to present," he says. "You really have to get deep with the client to make that all possible."
Lee says Visions is more than an event service – it is a lifestyle boutique.
"Visions has expanded its services," she says, "renting out their showroom for bridal showers, birthday and anniversary parties. They have also established a floral concierge service where customers can register favorite flowers and special dates – a truly happy arrangement."
Brown sums up the passion he and Lee share for their work.
"The love of design and of each other is what inspires us to create," he says. "That's what we're proud of and that's what drives our business and our life together."

The market is currently down, with the Nasdaq decreasing 0.5%, the S&P 500 falling 0.2% and the Dow declining 0.2%. The utilities sector is a category of stocks for utilities such as gas and power. It contains companies such as electric, gas and water firms and integrated providers. Because utilities require significant infrastructure, these firms often carry large amounts of debt. With a high debt load, utilities companies become sensitive to changes in the interest rate. As interest rates rise or drop, the debt payments will increase or decrease. The utilities sector performs best when interest rates are falling or remain low.
The Utilities sector (XLU) is up 0.6% on a bad day for the market overall. The biggest movers in the sector are currently:

CHICAGO (AP) -- The sponsor of a bill that would add five new casinos in Illinois and allow slot machines at both major Chicago airports plans to revive talks on the measure when the Legislature meets next week.
State Rep. Robert Rita, a Blue Island Democrat, wants to open discussion on several issues that prevented a House vote on the bill during the spring session.
A hearing is scheduled Wednesday in Springfield, though it's unlikely a vote would occur this fall.
The measure would add casinos in Chicago, Rockford, Danville, Chicago's south suburbs and Lake County.
Rita opted not to call the legislation in May, saying he needed time to address concerns.
Among them was criticism from the chairman of the Illinois Gaming Board that there wasn't enough oversight of a Chicago casino.

Castle Rising, village ("parish"), King's Lynn and West Norfolk borough, administrative and historic county of Norfolk, England. A great Norman castle with a massive square keep stands within a 12-acre (5-hectare) enclosure formed by artificial ramparts of earth and a ditch, which is crossed by an ancient bridge. The incorporated town that grew in its shelter in the Middle Ages, with important fairs and markets, later decayed and was disfranchised in 1832; it is now a mere village with a late Norman church.

General Sullivan went on to say, "Deputy Undersecretary Rooney rightly points out the vast difference between jobs in the civilian sector and the military profession."
General Sullivan noted that "military retirement benefits are not gifts; they have been earned through blood, sweat, repeated deployments, missed birthdays and anniversaries, and the risk of injury or loss of life. These benefits are designed to provide a powerful incentive for top-quality people to serve full careers despite the hardships of such service on those troops and on their families."
Further, "long-term military service requires extraordinary sacrifice by those serving and their families over two to three decades – in essence, service members write a blank check to the United States for an amount up to and including their life. Our government imposes no limits on the sacrifices of those who serve a career in uniform - less than one-percent of our population - and in turn must provide a substantial and predictable compensation package."
General Sullivan and AUSA are vocal and adamant that military benefits must not be sacrificed on the altar of deficit reduction if we as a nation are truly committed to those who are willing to carry our colors into battle.

'Trophy Wife' - 'Cold File' Review
10/2/2013 3:04pm EDT
ABC's "Trophy Wife" debuted with one of the funniest comedy pilots of the season and looked to be a promising series. Its second episode, "Cold File" takes a bit of a step back and falls into the formula of standard family sitcom fodder that is so familiar to TV viewers. Some of the subversive tone of the initial episode has gone and replaced with straightforward comedy, which isn't horrible, but it would be nice to see the show straddle the line more often than not. The episode is amusing enough but the clichéd and familiar B-story was so uninspired that it soured the entire half hour. Do we really need another sitcom scenario in which the reckless kids spill something on the couch? The storyline played out predictably and therefore wasn't all that funny. Marcia Gay Harden did pull off the almost creepily sociopathic mother role rather well and found some comedy in the tired material, but the kids' performances were borderline cheesy (though I will not fault them because the main issue is the actual writing). Still, every time the show cut to the two kids and their salsa paranoia, my interest diminished significantly.
The show is at its strongest when it focuses on Malin Akerman's character, Kate, and her attempts to immerse herself into her husband's domestic life. She is by far the best thing the show has going for it. Admittedly, putting a kid to sleep isn't exactly the freshest plotline introduced in a sitcom; the writing was strong enough to support it. Albert Tsai who plays Bert is a good performer (probably the best out of the three kids) and was given a lot of wacky to do and he played it wonderfully. I mean, "I'm the sun, I'm the moon, I'm Christmas!" come on, that was funny. Him and Malin Akerman worked well together and their scenes together elicited quite a few chuckles. Bradley Whitford is good as the supporting dad/husband straight man with occasional goofy bits here and there. His chemistry with Ackerman is pleasant and believable, they seem at ease with each other which totally sells the relationship.
I missed Natalie Morales, who played Kate's best friend in the pilot episode. Her scenes in the pilot were very funny, which coincidentally involved Bert (that kid is good), but I can see how difficult it could be to justify her presence each week. Especially if the writers want to concentrate on Kate's home and family life. I'd still like to see more of her though.
"Trophy Wife" has emerged as one of the best new comedies this season and hopefully audiences will give it the opportunity to grow and improve because it definitely has a lot of potential.

|UN News Service, Côte d'Ivoire: UN mission satisfied with pace of arms collection, 16 March 2012, available at: http://www.refworld.org/docid/4f6878d92.html [accessed 31 May 2016]
|This is not a UNHCR publication. UNHCR is not responsible for, nor does it necessarily endorse, its content. Any views expressed are solely those of the author or publisher and do not necessarily reflect those of UNHCR, the United Nations or its Member States.
"To date 2,000 ex-combatants have voluntarily handed in 1,300 weapons and some 50,000 pieces of ammunition," Hamadoun Touré, spokesperson for the UN Operation in Côte d'Ivoire (UNOCI), told reporters at the mission's weekly briefing in Abidjan yesterday.
The arms collection operations are supervised by the mission's Disarmament, Demobilization and Reintegration (DDR) division in cooperation with the Ivorian National Commission on Small Arms.
In an effort to ensure the safety of the country's population, UNOCI's bomb disposal squad is also continuing its activities throughout the country, Mr. Touré said.
"We intend to set up a hotline for the population in the very near future which they can contact to alert us on any unexploded ordnance such as those which recently injured some children who were playing with them," he said.
On human rights, Mr. Touré said that UNOCI is following up on the cases of people arrested on suspicion of carrying out activities that allegedly endangered the security of the State.
The suspects are being detained in such places as the criminal police headquarters and Côte d'Ivoire's Directorate of Territorial Surveillance to which human rights officers have no access.
He said cases of female genital mutilation had been reported among girls aged between 7 and 25 in several areas across country. UNOCI's Human Rights Division is organizing several public awareness activities to sensitize communities about the harmful effects of this practice.
