Nordion Inc. (NDZ: Quote,NDN.TO: Quote) released an update to the ongoing arbitration process with Atomic Energy of Canada Limited or AECL relating to the Maple facilities.
The MAPLE facilities are the nuclear reactors and processing facility that were being constructed to serve as the Company's source of long-term medical isotope supply.
Nordion said it has been informed by the arbitration tribunal that, subject to agreement by Nordion and AECL, the tribunal proposes to render a decision in September 2012.
Nordion stated that it will provide an update as to the specific date of the decision as soon as it is confirmed.
Nordion said it served AECL with a notice of arbitration proceedings on July 8, 2008, after AECL and the Government of Canada unilaterally announced their intent to discontinue development work on the Maple facilities.
Nordion added that the arbitration seeks to compel AECL to fulfil its contractual obligations to Nordion to complete the Maple facilities and, in the alternative and in addition to such order, to pay significant monetary damages. Hearings in the arbitration were completed at the end of May 2012.

When the clock struck 7 p.m. there was an air of urgency as election workers shouted out the door that the polls were now closed.
The polling stations were rearranged and set on tables and quickly set to printing out the ballot summaries.
As election superintendent Orma Luckey began writing the results on a dry erase board 45 minutes later, the small crowd that had gathered fell silent. And when at last she revealed the results there was a moment of shock as newcomer Clay Kissner began to smile.
Kissner received 403 votes, 72.6 percent, while Judd Burkhart reined in just 152, 27.4 percent. Approximately 555 votes were tallied among absentee, early voting and Election Day. There are 4,675 registered voters in the city. Turnout for the city election was relatively small at 11.8 percent.
Kissner did a considerable amount of handshaking after learning he had won the election, but the first hand he shook was his opponent Burkhart. When asked how he felt about the win, Kissner quickly replied that he was, "excited and humbled."
"I am ready to get to work," Kissner said.

Our Dirty Love Affair with Trash
Edward Humes - Author
A Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist takes readers on a surprising tour of the world of garbage. Take a journey inside the secret world of our biggest export, our most prodigious product, and our greatest legacy: our trash. It's the biggest thing we make: The average American is on track to produce a whopping 102 tons of garbage across a lifetime, $50 billion in squandered riches rolled to the curb each year, more than that produced by any other people in the world. But that trash doesn't just magically disappear; our bins are merely the starting point for a strange, impressive, mysterious, and costly journey that may also represent the greatest untapped opportunity of the century. In Garbology, Pulitzer Prize–winning author Edward Humes investigates the trail of that 102 tons of trash—what's in it; how much we pay for it; how we manage to create so much of it; and how some families, communities, and even nations are finding a way back from waste to discover a new kind of prosperity. Along the way , he introduces a collection of garbage denizens unlike anyone you've ever met: the trash-tracking detectives of MIT, the bulldozer-driving sanitation workers building Los Angeles' immense Garbage Mountain landfill, the artists in residence at San Francisco's dump, and the family whose annual trash output fills not a dumpster or a trash can, but a single mason jar. Garbology digs through our epic piles of trash to reveal not just what we throw away, but who we are and where our society is headed. Are we destined to remain the country whose number-one export is scrap—America as China's trash compactor—or will the country that invented the disposable economy pioneer a new and less wasteful path? The real secret at the heart of Garbology may well be the potential for a happy ending buried in our landfill. Waste, Humes writes, is the one environmental and economic harm that ordinary working Americans have the power to change—and prosper in the process. "Humes's argument isn't a castigation of litterbugs. It's a persuasive and sometimes astonishing indictment of an economy that's become inextricably linked to the increasing consumption of cheap, disposable stuff – ultimately to our own economic, political, and yes, environmental peril….his arguments for the rank inefficiency of our trash-happy, terminally obsolescent economy are spot on." –Bookforum "Humes offers plenty of surprising, even shocking, statistics…An important addition to the environmentalist bookshelf." – Kirkus Reviews "Unlike most dirty books, this one is novel and fresh on every page. You'll be amazed." –Bill McKibben, author of Earth "Edward Humes takes us on a real romp through the waste stream. Garbology is an illuminating, entertaining read that ultimately provides hope and tips for a less wasteful future. This book will make you want to burn, or at least recycle, your trash can!" –Jonathan Bloom, author of American Wasteland "In this well-written and fast-paced book, Ed Humes delves into the underbelly of a consumer society—its trash. What he finds is so startling and infuriating, you will never think about 'waste' in the same way again." –Samuel Fromartz, author of Organic, Inc. and Editor-in-Chief of the Food & Environment Reporting Network Why did you decide to write about garbage? Everybody knows waste is a problem. But did you know trash is now America's biggest export? That one of the tallest structures in Los Angeles is a mountain of garbage? That the average American is on track to make 102 tons of trash in a lifetime, twice what we were rolling to the curb in 1960? Garbology began with a simple question: Is there a way back from our disposable economy, this addiction to waste? The short answer is: yes. I found a growing number of families, communities, and businesses doing just that -- cutting waste and prospering in the process. Garbology is their story. What was the most surprising thing you discovered during your research? The most surprising part of the story is just how wasteful we are without really knowing it -- the true numbers are much worse than the official line. Almost as surprising: Being less wasteful is liberating, timesaving, and wealth-creating. Waste is one of the few big societal, economic and environmental problems ordinary people can fix. Did researching garbage make you more aware of your own trash habits? Do you throw out more or less now? Absolutely. My family has made a real effort to cut down on waste by refusing the trashiest stuff (plastic shopping bags, excessive packaging, non-recyclable products, disposables) and repurposing or recycling the rest. It's a start. Is there a viable solution for getting rid of our trash, other than landfills? Sure. Landfills are glorified town dumps, a low-tech solution as old as ancient Greece. Landfilling rather than repurposing trash wastes billions of dollars -- burying treasure while creating environmental havoc. Other countries with vibrant economies send almost nothing to landfills. They use clean power plants to make heat and electricity from trash. They recycle more. They reject disposable, high-waste products. What do you think of reality shows like Hoarders that showcase our garbage? They lead us to believe that those men and women with trash-filled homes are aberrations. But the amount of waste hoarders accumulate is completely normal. It's just that the rest of us hide it in landfills, deceived by the illusion that our waste can be rolled to the curb then magically disappear. But it doesn't disappear. It drags down our economy, our environment and our future, because waste is another word for money squandered. Hoarders understand this better than most. Who is more wasteful? Business and industry, or individual Americans? Who needs to reform their ways more? Both need to rethink the disposable economy (and many companies already are). In terms of volume, business and industry make the most waste. But because that trash is created to provide goods and services, consumers are ultimately responsible for embracing -- or rejecting -- the disposable economy by "voting with their wallets." The thing to remember is that waste costs money, which means wasting less saves money. And that's a truism on Wall Street, Main Street and everywhere in between. What are the unexpected consequences of the amount of trash we produce?
What can we learn about ourselves from our trash? If you could sit down with a year in the life of your waste bins dumped on your front lawn, you'd be shocked by the size of the mound: 1.3 tons, on average. That's 50% more waste than your Danish counterpart makes. Twice as much as the average Japanese citizen. And you'd see that much of what you buy ends up in the trash within a year. What at waste! Is it truly possible to live waste-free? The process of living makes waste -- there will always be some. But can we lower our individual waste footprints? Yes, anyone can. Most families could cut their trash 30 to 50 percent without breaking a sweat, and save money doing it. What are five things anyone could do to put their 102-ton legacy on a diet?

A garden has many purposes. It's a place to grow delicious tomatoes and mouthwatering fruit picked ripe off the tree. It's a place to read your favorite book on a comfy chair in the shade. It's a place to watch birds and butterflies when they visit the flowers you've planted just for them. It's a place to go when you need to get away from all the hustle and bustle of daily life. And it's a place of healing.
I recently lost my little cat, Jasmine. I forgive her for the occasional bird she caught. She really wasn't a hunter. Mostly, she liked to just lay around in the shade.
There is so much life in a garden. For now, mine will be a healing garden, making me feel calm and comfortable and less stressed.
With our lovely summer weather, our gardens truly become another room.
We all recognize a well-designed garden when we see it. All the individual parts make sense together. They feel right. That's why some gardens not only look better, but feel better than others.
There are several design principles you should use to get your garden to look its best. Once you have them down, a garden practically designs itself.
First, you want to create unity within your garden. Plants and other hardscape elements in a garden — decks, paths, even rocks — have visual weight and need to be balanced so everything appears in proportion. A tall tree and low mounded shrubs growing across from a group of airy perennials around a fountain looks natural and random but balanced. Think of a mimosa tree underplanted with Gulf Stream nandina opposite a group of monkey flowers.
Your garden should include a variety of textures, seasonal interest and color, to hold your attention and create excitement. Things should stand out from each other. Choose one or two contrasting elements — such as the small green leaves of loropetalum against broad, variegated hostas, or a tall, vertical Emerald Green thuja against low, mounding Kaleidoscope abelia — so your garden doesn't turn into a jumble.
A garden needs at least one object or area that is noticed first and most often. Your focal point could be a red Japanese maple rising above a low, wild ginger groundcover or a water fountain that instantly gets attention. The sound of water is soothing, and it's fun to see all the birds and butterflies that come to visit.
Because our area is nested among trees and other wild areas, I think an informal, naturalistic garden looks more like it belongs here. Curved paths and planting beds move the eye slowly through the landscape and invite visitors to explore every corner and curve. Stillness and reflection result when gently rhythmic, repeating groups of plants curve toward a tall garden arbor, for instance. Create smooth transitions from one area of the landscape to another.
Repeating forms, textures, colors and sizes makes a garden easier to look at. Repetition sets the rhythm for the eye to move around the garden. Evenly spaced plants produce a predictable, well-controlled, peaceful feeling. A staggered, uneven repetition will have a bouncy, energetic effect.
All these elements combine to make a good garden, but you make it your own.

The Rise of 'Zero TV' Homes Has Broadcasters Nervous
The rise of so-called 'zero TV' households--those that don't pay for cable or satellite services and instead watch shows via the Internet--has broadcasters nervous.
The rise of so-called 'zero TV' households--those that don't pay for cable or satellite services and instead watch shows via the Internet--has broadcasters nervous.
Cablevision has accused Viacom in an antitrust lawsuit of forcing it to pay for more than a dozen low-rated cable networks in order to get access to Viacom's more popular channels such as Nickelodeon, MTV and Comedy Central, the latest flare up between distributors and program makers.
As cable companies and satellite TV providers made their latest quarterly reports, one thing became clear: Americans are fed up with their bills for premium TV. The cable and satellite TV industries ended the period with 292,000 fewer customers than they started with.
Starting Thursday, Boxee TV will be sold exclusively at 3,000 U.S. Walmart stores. The $98 device features a built-in antenna to grab free over-the-air broadcast TV, and it also tethers to the Internet to stream YouTube, Netflix, and Pandora. Is this a way for you to ditch your cable bill for good?
Dish Network needed this week's deal that will allow it to continue broadcasting local television channels in some of Gannett's markets, but it's just one less problem that the company has to tackle.
The Walt Disney Co. said Wednesday that it reached a long-term agreement with the nation's largest TV signal provider, Comcast Corp., that extends their partnership into the next decade. The deal covers major pay channels ESPN, Disney Channel and ABC Family and the retransmission of free ABC broadcast network programs through seven ABC TV stations. It allows Comcast subscribers to gain greater access to shows on demand over the Internet on multiple devices.
Apple could be about to make TV buffs very happy. 2012's Apple TV launch may be accompanied by an Internet-based TV service for which viewers will finally be able to choose which channels they want without having to pay for hundreds they don't.
Don't look now, but the cord-cutting trend continues for Comcast. Though the country's largest cable provider tried to mask its woes with upbeat spin in its quarterly report, Comcast is serving 577,000 fewer households than it was a year ago.
Poor customer service is one of the primary reasons people tend to shun certain companies and even whole industries. 24/7 Wall St. identified the U.S. industries with the most complaints, as well as the troubles people have with them. If customer service is important to success, those we identified could be in trouble.
The U.S. economy is still sputtering, and household budgets are still under pressure. So where are we cutting: Fancy coffee? Check. Eating out? You bet. But there are a few things that once would have been considered luxuries the recent poll shows Americans just aren't willing to do without.
Glenn Beck's show still has higher ratings than all of its 5 p.m. cable competitors put together, but it has been losing viewers at an alarming rate. And it's got fewer -- and less prestigious -- advertisers than "The Situation Room" or "Hardball with Chris Matthews." Will Fox pull the plug?
In a Q&A, Wolfe (pictured, left) recounts how he came to be the creator and star of The History Channel show, and he provides some behind-the-scenes glimpses into the life of a collector always hunting the next big discovery. Also, he recalls finding his "holy grail" in a barn near Philadelphia.
Hulu reached an agreement with Viacom that will once again allow the video site to air episodes of Jon Stewart's "The Daily Show" and Stephen Colbert's "The Colbert Report," 11 months after the shows were pulled from the site.
Don't bet on it. While media chatter has it that the conservatives at Comcast are going to overhaul MSNBC's lineup, the problems with Olbermann were more managerial than political. The channel's demographics are actually quite favorable, and other shows' ratings are strong.

Hi all, I am wondering if anybody knows about hardware compatibility with the Geforce 8600 go and the intel PRO wireless 4965 a/g/n, particularly in this laptop: http://www.xoticpc.com/product_info.php?wconfigure=yes&products_id=1983 It is a Compal with the newfangled Santa Rosa CPUs. Please tell if the fact that it is a laptop matters or not in general. I am confident sabayon will make it work, even if I need to use ndiswrapper for the wireless, but I want to make sure.
Thank you,
PS: Could anybody tell me what kind of virtualization is available in Sabayon? I need to run windows 2000 for small things (Chips challenge, Visualboy advance, etcetera,) until I find all the Linux equivalents I need.

Because I have two and I don't think you can get a Growlithe Vulpix or Eevee.
No, those three are the only ones. However, when you get the national dex, you may be able to obain them and use the stone then, such as Eevee, as Swampert explains. Once you get the national dex, pal park opens, allowing you to migrate and obtain those pokemon through other games.
You can get an Eevee from Bebe in Hearthome City and you can evolve that into Flareon.

Dave Wood's Book Report, Dec. 24, 2008
Merry Christmas! James Merrill (1926-95) grew up in the lap of luxury, the son of Charles Merrill, the founder of Merrill, Lynch.By: Dave Wood,
Merry Christmas!
James Merrill (1926-95) grew up in the lap of luxury, the son of Charles Merrill, the founder of Merrill, Lynch.
He went to all the right schools and taught at others, including the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
And he grew to become one of the most respected poets of the last half of the 20th century, complex, sometimes formalist, sometimes not, a seer and a realist.
He died of AIDS in 1995 and now Knopf is out with a hefty and handsome paperback edition of his greatest work.
"James Merrill: Selected Poems," edited by J.D. McClatchey and Stephen Yenser (Knopf, $16 paper) illustrates the infinite variety of Merrill's work, much of which is too long to quote in a newspaper. Here's a short, tight poem, however, that illustrates Merrill's artistry -- and his interest in music:
Bix to Buxtehud to Boulez
The little white dog on the Victor label
Listens long and hard as he is able.
It's all in a day's work, whatever plays.
From judgment, it wold seem, he has refrained.
He even listens earnestly to Bloch,
Then builds a church on our acid rock.
He's man's – no -- he's the Lierman's best friend.
Or would be if hearing and listening were the same.
Does he hear? I fancy he rather smells
Those lemon-gold arpeggios in Ravel's
"Les jets d'eau du palais deceux qui s'aiment."
He ponders the Schumann Concerto's tall willow hit
By lightning, and stays put. When he surmises
Through one of Bach's eternal boxwood mazes
The oboe pungent as a bitch in heat.
Or when the calypso decants its raw bay rum
Or the moon in Wozzeck reddens ripe for murder,
He doesn't sneeze or howl, just listens harder.
Adamant needles bear down on him from
Whirling of outer space, too black, too near—
But he was taught as a puppy not to flinch,
Much less to imitate is bete noire Blanche
Who barked, fat foolish creature, in King Lear.
Still others fought in the road's filth over Jezebel.
Slavered on hearths of horned and pelted barons.
His forebears lacked, to say the least, forbearance.
Can nature change in him. Nothing's impossible.
The last chord fades. The night is cold and fine.
His master's voice rasps through the grooves' bare groves/
Obediently, in silence like the grave's
He sleeps there on the still-warm gramophone.
Only to dream he is at the premier of a Handel
Opera long thought lost -- Il Cane Minore.
Its allegorical subject in his story!
A little dog revolving round a spindle.
Gives rise to harmonies beyond belief,
A cast of stars -- is there in Victor's heart
No honey for the vanquished? Art is art.
The life it asks of us is a dog's life.
If there's someone on your list who is still star-struck (and who doesn't)?
"Fred Astaire," by Joseph Epstein (Yale $22) might be just the ticket.
It's a slender volume, slender like Fred Astaire and elegant, too.
The most interesting part of the book is Astaire's humble beginnings, the son of an Omaha, Neb., salesman.
Normally we think of Astaire as a very cool dude who hung around with the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.
In reality, he was just Fred Austerlitz of Omaha, whose mother took him out of school and with his sister Adele moved to the East Coast to get him on stage.
Fred turns out to be a hard working perfectionist, who knew he wasn't too cute and knew he had to dance better than the rest to make it.
Probably more interesting is his dancing partner, Adele, who left the team early in its career to marry a wealthy alcoholic. Adele turns out to be a really fun character, who liked to embroider cushions with Victorian sayings on one side -- and obscenities on the other.

a threatening intruder was in the building and students were told to immediately take refuge in classrooms.Doors were locked and police, with dogs, moved in. Students stayed huddled in classrooms where they were told to stay away from the windows.
But what sounded like a frightening situation was just a search for narcotics. Drug-sniffing dogs combed the school while students stayed in locked classrooms, believing that an attacker was roaming the halls. http://www.courant.com/news/connecti...4150328.column do any of you out there have anything to say about the state off schools out there?

Ben Heck has outdone himself with the minimal clean design of his latest gaming mod- a PS3 Slim Laptop mod!
This laptop sees Sony's PS3 Slim stuffed into a monochromatic chassis with 17-inch Gateway 1775w LCD throwing a 1280 x 720 pixel resolution.
There's even space inside to tuck away the power cord when traveling.
The pinstriped result is nothing short of elegant, sporty even, especially when compared to his PS3 laptop from 2008.
Check out a video of it below!

When you are in the aisles of your local liquor haunt or grocery store, and you're on the hunt for some scotch, does it matter to you where it comes from?
If the assumption is that great Champagne comes from the Champagne region of France, than you must believe that great Scotch Whiskey comes from Scotland, right??
What if I were to tell you that there is a scotch, single malt, which beat all Scottish-made whiskeys in a blind tasting by a panel of British experts?
In this piece from the New York Times, we learn about American Malted Whiskeys, namely Balcones Texas Single Malt.
Balcones Distillery is based in Waco, Texas, and is the first American-made whiskey to win the competition in its five-year history.
This reminds me of the tale of the "Judgment of Paris" from back in 1976. Then, a panel of French wine judges conducted a blind tasting organized by British wine merchant Steven Spurrier, awarded its highest mark to a '73 Stags Leap Wine Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon.
Many in the wine industry regard this as the "tipping point" of how the California wine industry took the world by storm, opening the door to people understanding that great wine can be made in places outside of France.
The Times story discusses the state of the growing American malt whiskey industry. In Wisconsin, there are at least three distilleries which produce whiskey: Death's Door Spirits, Great Lakes Distillery and Yahara Bay Distillers.
If you're a fan of single malt scotch whiskey, give a local distiller a chance. It's the same way you'd want to buy local for this.

"The Hobbit" had an up-and-down weekend. (Warner Bros. / December 17, 2012) |
After the coffee. Before hopping a flight back to Los Angeles.
The Skinny: I spent the weekend in New York City in an apartment with (gasp) no cable. So I won't know how absurd the season finale of "Homeland" was until later today when I get back home. Monday's stories include a look at how "The Hobbit" did in its opening weekend, some deep digs on the role of the media following the tragedy in Connecticut and a look at Quentin Tarantino's "Django Unchained."
Daily Dose: NBC has pulled some of the gun-themed programming from its NBC Sports Network outlet including the show "Guns & Gears" in the aftermath of the horrible school shooting in Newtown, Conn. In a statement, NBC said, "In light of the tragic events at Newtown, we have indefinitely pulled all gun advertising and programming that is not directly related to hunting. We do not feel it is appropriate during this time of national mourning."
An unexpected journey indeed. It's rare that a record-setting performance can also be a disappointment at the same time but that was the case for "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey." Even though it took in $84.8 million in its opening weekend, a record for December (factoring in inflation), that was a lot less than what the industry had expected. Last week, there were projections that "The Hobbit" would make more than $120 million. "The Hobbit" did have a big overseas performance so it will probably still be a Merry Christmas for Warner Bros., New Line and MGM, the companies behind the film. Box office recaps from the Los Angeles Times and Deadline Hollywood.
Fine line. The media descended on the small town of Newtown, Conn., after Friday's tragic elementary school shooting. This is not an easy assignment because television and print reporters have to find a way to tell stories that will honor the lives of those killed and shed light on what drove Adam Lanza to do what he did without turning it into a circus. There is a fine line between solid and reckless reporting (as witnessed by all the misinformation in the early hours after the massacre). The New York Times looks at the media's challenge while Variety critic Brian Lowry and Daily Beast correspondent Howard Kurtz offer their own assessments. Also a must-read from cartoonist Matt Bors on unintended (and sometimes intended) consequences of sloppy reporting and the misuse of social media.
Game plan. News Corp.'s Fox Sports, already a big player in sports, wants to launch a national sports cable channel (or perhaps two) in the coming year. The marketplace is already crowded. ESPN has several channels and NBC and CBS have their own as well. However, if there is one company unafraid to bet big, it's News Corp. The Wall Street Journal looks at what's motivating Fox Sports and the hurdles it will face. Of course, I don't need to tell you that more sports channels means slicing the sports pie thinner and charging consumers more for the same content. Merry Christmas!
Making history. "Survivor" producer Mark Burnett has never been one to shy away from big risks. Next up from Burnett is "The Bible," a 10-hour miniseries for the History Channel, which will premiere in March. Burnett's wife, actress Roma Downey ("Touched by an Angel") stars in the epic program. "This is not a TV show to us. It's images and sound and sacred text that people will still watch, way after our grandchildren are old people," Burnett tells USA Today.
Inside the Los Angeles Times: It's a cliche to say director Quentin Tarantino likes to push the envelope so we'll just say his latest movie "D'Jango Unchained" takes the cake.

Hm so the post-apocalypse sure is a lot like the pre-apocalypse.
Its like how 2000s was seen in 1970: hyper futuristic with flying cars and circular chairs.
You talking about egg chairs?
ya, but they used to have a different model, which was more spheric than egg. Also the over saturated red and orange... ugh...
Hah ha ha ha ha ha ha
I think the only place one of those has been used stylishly was the Incredibles... if anyone remembers that movie.

I never saw the movie but wasn't it also supposedly a big love letter to Objectivism?

School Health Policies and Practices Study (SHPPS)
The School Health Policies and Practices Study* (SHPPS) is a national survey periodically conducted to assess school health policies and practices at the state, district, school, and classroom levels. The next SHPPS is planned for 2012.
SHPPS was most recently conducted in 2006 to answer the following questions:
- What are the characteristics of each component of school health at the state, district, school, and classroom levels and across elementary, middle, and high schools?
- Are there persons responsible for coordinating and delivering each school health program component, and what are their qualifications and educational backgrounds?
- What collaboration occurs among staff from each school health program component and with staff from outside agencies and organizations?
- How have key policies and practices changed over time?

Unlike most entry-level lights that're just bright enough to make the overly-cautious motorist aware of your presence, the Mako 200 light illuminates a visible path while adding to your safety.
Using a Cree LED bulb, the Mako 200 light broadcasts a wide, 200 lumen beam across the road so you can avoid hitting fallen branches at full speed. With two steady light settings and a strobe setting, it's a breeze to dial in the best output level for your ride. And since lateral visibility is just as important as frontal visibility, NiteRider installed 'gills' on both sides of the light body to emit red light on every setting. The Mako also comes equipped with a handlebar mount that can accommodate bars up to 31.8mm in diameter.
The NiteRider Mako 200 Light comes with two AA batteries and weighs approximately 165g.

Frequently Asked Questions / Cancer Resources / Genetics
Last Modified: June 10, 2009
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
FAP is very prevalent in our family. My son has had 3 genetic tests done in an effort to locate his mutation so that other family members could get blood tests to see if they have it, but they have not been able to locate the mutation in any of the affected family members. I have heard that it matters where the test is done- that different labs are better at detecting the gene abnormalities. Is this true?
Jill Stopfer, MS, CGC, Certified Genetic Counselor, responds:
It is not the hospital or lab that matters in the detection rate of genetic mutations in the APC gene, it is the technique used by that lab. So the question to ask is: was the person affected with FAP tested by sequencing, including testing for large genomic deletions and rearrangements? The genetic counselor / genetics professional who arranged the testing should be able to answer this question. It is absolutely true that depending on which lab was used, different techniques may have been used, which can affect the accuracy or "completeness" of the testing.

Denpasar Tourist Attractions
Top Tourist Attractions in Denpasar
Denpasar (Badung), or rather its airport at Ngurah Rai, is usually the point of arrival for visitors to Bali. Since the completion of the four-lane Jalan Bypass, however, they are likely to see little of the city itself as they head right away for one of the tourist resorts.
Rajas of Badung
The palace of the Rajas of Badung (Puri Pemecutan), now a pleasant small hotel, lies in the angle between Jalan Thamrin and Jalan Hassannudin. Behind a red brick wall are a number of charming buildings set in a luxuriant tropical garden. The contrast could hardly be starker: outside the palace are clamorous traffic and swarms of people, while inside its cocks in wicker baskets crow in peaceful rivalry with one another.The palace was almost completely burned down after the puputan on September 14th 1906, but a year later was rebuilt by the Dutch, though not on its original scale. Notable features are the richly decorated entrance gate and - the only relics of the original palace - a number of fine reliefs towards the rear of the palace precinct. In one building is a collection of lontar (palm-leaf) books which survived the fire, in another some old gamelan instruments.
Bali National Museum
The Bali National Museum is an architecturally significant complex, containing three separate buildings. Inside of each are an array of items and artifacts of national importance.
Pura Jagat Natha
Immediately to the right of the main exit from the National Museum is the Pura Jagat Natha (Temple of the Rulers of the Worlds), dedicated to Sangyang Widi, who to the Balinese Hindus is the incarnation of Vishnu, the supreme god, and thus the "god of gods". The symbols of divinities in the temple (Sangyang Widi represented as a gleaming gold figure seated on a seven-tiered throne of coralline limestone) are venerated not merely by particular groups of the population but by all Balinese Hindus.
St Joseph's Church
Some 550 m (600 yds) north-east of the National Museum can be found St Joseph's Church (R.C.), in which Christian beliefs are represented in characteristic Balinese style.
Pura Maospahit
This is one of the oldest and most important temples of Denpasar. It was founded by the Majapahit dynasty and dates to the 15th C.
Werdi Budaya Art Centre
Werdi Budaya Art Centre (Jalan Bayusuta) is worth visiting both for the permanent exhibition of Balinese paintings in the main building and for the exhibition of work by both young and established artists for sale.Behind the building is a luxuriant tropical garden with a number of small pools. There is also a large open-air theatre in which performances of Balinese dances are given during the annual Festival of Arts and occasionally at other times.In a small building on the street leading to the Art Centre is a display of work by the German painter Walter Spies.
Academy of Indonesian Dance
Near the Art Centre (Jalan Ratza) is the Academy of Indonesian Dance (Akademi Seni Tari Indonesia, ASTI), in which young Balinese are taught the high art of the traditional dances, the shadow play (wayang kulit) and the playing of the instruments of the gamelan orchestra. In the morning visitors can watch the pupils rehearsing, and in the evening there are performances in which they can demonstrate their skills. (For information about times of performances apply to the Bali Tourist Office in Denpasar.)
Pasar Badung
In the angle between Jalan Gajah Mada (one of Denpasar's main traffic arteries) and Jalan Sulawesi is the town's largest market, the Pasar Badung, housed in a three-story building. Fresh vegetables and fruit are sold in the basement, handicrafts, textiles, clothing, etc., on the upper floors. The Pasar Badung has its own domestic temple. Round the corner are the fishmongers - half concealed because the Balinese Hindus believe that the sea is inhabited by demons and evil spirits, as no doubt are the creatures that live in it.
Ngurah Rai Airport
Denpasar's Ngurah Rai Airport, named after an Indonesian freedom fighter, is situated 12 km (7.5 mi.) south of Denpasar and 3 km (2mi.) south of Kuta.The left-hand part of the air terminal building is the Domestic Airport for flights within Indonesia; the right-hand part is the International Airport. The central section is the arrivals area.In the arrivals hall are a hotel reservation desk which will also arrange transport to the hotel), telephones and several exchange offices. (Before changing any large sums of money, check the exchange rates offered.)

The biggest attraction for illegal workers is a job - and if it pays below the minimum, that's fine with them. They get by and support their families. But if they all become legal, then they will get minimum wages. Which of course means a new crop of illegal workers will flood the economy to take the jobs. And those new legal workers will go on welfare.
So how can a below wage job be a living wage for millions of illegals but not Americans? And why do people think that the government will ever succeed in controlling the free market forces?
What many fail to take into account are the work ethic and willingness to sacrifice that many illegal workers have. Like many parents they want the best for their kids. They will take any job. They will live a frugal life and save. And hard work does not phase them.
A sound off opinion stated that there are free and income based sliding fee clinics for eye care, including glasses, and dental. It would be a public service to those individuals who have neither eye care or dental care insurance coverage to know where these clinics are held. If the writer of the opinion could take the time to get these into the paper it would help children, adults and senior citizens.
While the state mandates eye exams for children in school, it is up to the parents to follow up. Not all children are covered by Husky nor are all adults covered by Medicaid. We have a problem in this country with uninsured, underinsured with dental and eye care two of the biggest areas lacking.
I would suggest to anyone who thinks we need to save all of the humans on the planet in another country that they volunteer in a local soup kitchen, shelter and see where the need is here in their own country. It is our responsibility as Americans to first help our fellow American before venturing out to save the world.
Today is Presidents' Day. Who do you think should be added to Mount Rushmore? Would you vote to have the first black president to be added to the national monument? Will President Barak Obama be the next installment to the faces of the Presidents?
What to do with the Sandy Hook Elementary School? What to do with the millions and millions of dollars of donations? It is my personal belief that the building should be made into a children's museum and the land turned into a playground and park. They could have one room used as a memorial for the shooting victims. The rest of the building should be used to bring joy and happiness to children. The only way to defeat evil is with love. Make this a place of love, education and most important hope. God Bless the fallen, the victims, the survivors, the families, the first responders the entire community of Newtown.
I would like to put this in Sound Off — that the street department of the city of Torrington did a hell of a good job on the streets during the 2013 blizzard. They worked 36 hours and they should get a double, triple star for making our roads safe. You should get a pat on your back and a reward for what you did. All the roads are safe for emergencies considering the equipment they had. Continued...
Isn't illegal immigration a crime in itself? By all means, let them all stay. I guess that's one more benefit the illegals enjoy.
