Here are some very common mistakes that first timers make. I made some myself. The best way to avoid these is to learn from other people's mistakes.
Not Consulting Multiple Doctors
Different doctors will have different opinions. You want to make sure all of them say it is safe and ok for you to proceed before you do it. Listen carefully to how each doctor explains his method and what they recommend. You're looking for a general consensus among the majority of the doctors you consult.
You're playing with your body here and the results are permanent. I can't stress this enough. Don't fuck around. Don't go for the cheapest. Go for the best YOU CAN AFFORD. If that shady $500 doctor from Indonesia with no real track record (no offense) is the best you can afford, then my advice is DON'T DO IT. Go for a surgeon who has performed this surgery successfully multiple times. You can check out Dr Shens from Shens Clinic – Korea Trained Plastic Surgery. Not only is he experienced, he's also charging the lowest for this surgery in Singapore for now. Prices might go up soon but it's now only $2600 or so. He has done many ops before and my friends and I all had our stuff done with him without any problems.
Once again, this relates to cost. I personally will choose to do most operations in Singapore if I can find a qualified surgeon here. It's harder to find very experienced rhinoplasty or jaw implant surgeons here, but we have quite a few experienced double-eyelids surgeons here. The main reason for this is post-op checks and reviews. One of my friends had her double-eyelid surgery in Thailand botched. She couldn't find the doctor when she went back and has to walk around looking like a goldfish until she can do a surgery to fix it. Another friend did her epicantoplasty in Korea and when she came back, she kept feeling like her left eye vision was a bit blur. She wasn't sure if it's a natural result of the surgery and she couldn't go back to check. In the end, she had to pay extra to have it checked by a local surgeon. I've also encountered post-surgery issues twice. You won't understand HOW GLAD YOU WILL BE that your doctor is just a call away and you can meet him on the same day. When something looks wrong with your face and you're very worried, the LAST thing you want to do is to plan your leave and a trip to another country. The stress involved just isn't worth it. Trust me on this.
You know how you can tell with one look that certain girls did plastic surgery? They're still beautiful, no doubt. And if that floats your boat, please go ahead. But if you're like me, and want to look beautiful AND natural, then listen to your doctor's advice. Certain features and traits are not natural in Singaporeans. Unless you are mixed blood or something, if you have those traits, people can tell with 1 look you're plastic. One example is the Asian eyelid fold vs the Caucasian eyelid fold. Though, that said, at the end of the day, your happiness is what counts.

Cancer Hallmarks Analytics Tool help
The Cancer Hallmarks Analytics Tool (CHAT) allows users to quickly and easily analyze the strength of association between terms of interest and the hallmarks of cancer (Hanahan and Weinberg 2011; PubMed, PDF) in the literature based on a text-mining analysis of 26 million PubMed abstracts.
To analyze the association of any term with the hallmarks of cancer, simply enter the term into the "Query" text box on the CHAT homepage and press "Submit".
The resulting screen will show a chart summarising the association of the query term (below "p53") with the various hallmarks of cancer.
To compare the strength of association between two terms with the hallmarks of cancer, click on the "Compare" tab on the CHAT homepage, enter the two terms in the "Query" text boxes and press "Submit".
CHAT will then show a chart comparing the strength of association of the two terms (below "Mdm2" and "mTOR") with the hallmarks of cancer.
CHAT supports the following metrics for assessing the strength of association between a hallmark (h) and a query (q):
- count: co-occurrence count c(h,q), i.e. the number of contexts where both h and q occur
- cprob: conditional probability of h given q: p(h|q) = p(h,q)/p(q)
- pmi: pointwise mutual information of h and q: pmi (h,q) = log2 (p(h,q)/(p(h)p(q)))
- npmi: normalized pointwise mutual information of h and q: npmi (h,q) = pmi (h,q)/-log2 p(h,q)
To change the metric to apply, use the Metric selector found in both the Search and Compare tabs as well as on the top of their respective result pages. For interpretation of the metrics, see the following sections.
The value c(h,q) of the count metric for a hallmark h and a query q is simply the number of contexts where both h and q occur. While the count metric is easy to understand, direct comparisons of count values can be misleading because raw co-occurrence counts do not normalize over the number of times that h and q occur overall.
For example, if hallmark h1 is discussed in the literature more often than h2 (e.g. Invasion and metastasis compared to Replicative immortality), then a query q may be more strongly (statistically) associated with h2 than h1 even if c(h1,q) is greater than c(h2,q): the larger co-occurrence count may simply reflect h1 being more frequent.
Similarly, for two queries q1 and q2, if q1 occurs more frequently in the literature than q2 (e.g. "TP53" vs. "BRCA2"), c(h,q1) > c(h,q2) does not necessarily indicate a stronger association of hallmark h with q1 than with q2.
Conditional probability
The conditional probability p(h|q) of a hallmark h occurring in a context where a query term q has occurred is defined as the co-occurrence count c(h,q) divided by the overall count of the query term c(q).
Unlike count (see above), the cprob metric takes into account the overall frequency of the query term, normalizing by this value. This allows more meaningful comparison of cprob values across queries where the terms are not discussed in the literature with similar frequency.
For example, this comparison shows that "autotaxin" has a much higher cprob value with Invasion and metastasis than "Akt" does, despite the latter much more common term having a higher co-occurrence count with this hallmark (see here)
Pointwise mutual information
Pointwise mutual information pmi (h,q) is an information-theoretic metric of association strength that measures how often a hallmark h and a query q occur together compared to how often they would be expected to co-occur if their occurrences were independent (i.e. if they only co-occurred at random).
pmi (h,q) is defined as base-2 logarithm (measuring information in bits) of of the probability of co-occurrence p(h,q) divided by the product of the occurrence probabilities p(h)p(q). These probabilities are derived directly from the counts (see above).
pmi accounts for the overall frequency of both the query and the hallmark and its values are interpretable in that pmi (h,q) = 0 when p and q are independent, > 0 when they co-occur more often than expected from random co-occurrence, and < 0 when less often (negative association).
Normalized pointwise mutual information
While a pmi value of zero indicates no association (see above), values of the metric for positive associations can be difficult to interpret and compare as the maximum pmi (h,q) value increases when the query terms q and hallmarks h become less common (see e.g. Manning and Schütze 1999, Sec 5.4).
The npmi metric normalizes pmi by dividing by the negative log probability of co-occurrence -log2 p(h,q), which constrains its values to the range [-1, 1].
npmi maintains the benefits of pmi but is also more easily interpreted and compared. Regardless of the overall frequency of h and q, a npmi (h,q) value of -1 indicates no co-occurrence, 0 a frequency of co-occurrence matching random (no association, as for pmi) and 1 complete co-occurrence (perfect association).
Chart types
CHAT supports a variety of chart types for visualizing results, including bar, polar and radar charts. To change the chart type, use the Chart selector found in the Search tab and its result page. (For comparisons, only column charts are supported.)
Hallmark hierarchy
CHAT organizes cancer-related concepts using a taxonomy based on the hallmarks of cancer (Hanahan and Weinberg 2000; 2011) and supports two different granularities of analysis:
- top: the ten top-level classes of the taxonomy, corresponding to the ten hallmarks of Hanahan and Weinberg (2011)
- full: the full taxonomy of 37 classes (see hallmarks)
The full hallmarks provide finer granularity while the top hallmarks feature greater reliability to their higher frequency.
To change the granularity, use the Hallmarks selector found in the Search and Compare tabs and on the result pages.
Documents and annotations
To "drill down" from a chart view to the documents and annotations serving as its source data, click on the relevant part of the chart.
For example, after querying for "p53", clicking on the segment of the chart denoting "resisting cell death" shows summaries of PubMed documents relating to the association of p53 with resisting cell death.
Clicking further on any of the titles gives a visualization of all hallmark annotations for that PubMed document.

Resistance to activated protein C (APC), which results from various factors, including a mutation in the gene for coagulant factor V, has been associated with increased risk for venous thrombosis. However, its relation to arterial disease is still not well defined.
To investigate the association of both response to APC and the factor V Leiden mutation with arterial disease.
Population-based case–control study.
A district of Rotterdam, the Netherlands.
115 patients with a history of myocardial infarction; 112 patients with a history of stroke, transient ischemic attack, or both; and 222 age-matched controls without arterial disease chosen from among 7983 persons in the Rotterdam Study cohort. Patients using anticoagulant drugs were excluded.
Response to APC was determined in double-centrifuged platelet-poor plasma. Patients were genotyped for the Arg 506 to Gln mutation in the gene for coagulant factor V.
The prevalence of cerebrovascular disease increased gradually and corresponded to a decreasing response to APC (odds ratio per 1-unit decrease of response to APC, 1.43 [95% CI, 1.12 to 1.81], adjusted for age and sex). Adjustment for the factor V mutation did not change the findings. We found no association between response to APC and myocardial infarction or between factor V mutation and cerebrovascular disease or myocardial infarction.
Low response to APC is associated with an increased risk for cerebrovascular disease but not with an increased risk for myocardial infarction, independent of the factor V Leiden mutation. The association between the factor V Leiden mutation and cerebrovascular disease or myocardial infarction remains to be determined.

New Zealand has the world's fifth fastest rising house prices.
The Knight Frank Global House Price Index released today ranked the country only behind Hong Kong, Turkey, Estonia and Luxembourg for annual house price rises.
New Zealand house prices were listed as rising 10.9 per cent annually, well below Hong Kong's 20.7 per cent rise.
Countries with fast-paced residential price rises bucked international trends.
"Global house prices shifted marginally in the year to June 2015 rising by only 0.1%," Knight Frank said. "Lingering concerns over the Eurozone economy, jitters in global stock markets and discussions of when, not if, a US rate rise occurs is impinging on growth. New Zealand also ranked ahead of Hungary, Norway, Mexico, India, Indonesia, Germany, Denmark and South Africa where prices have also risen steeply lately.
The index tracked house price changes in 56 "mainstream residential markets" and said Hong Kong continued to defy policymakers' cooling measures due to its prices up 20.7 per cent year-on-year.

Westport Innovations cuts revenue guidance for 2014
Natural gas engine firm says market uncertainty in Europe, Russia and China have affected revenue.
VANCOUVER — Westport Innovations Inc. has cut its financial guidance due to uncertainty in its main markets, a change by its partners and worries about a customer's ability to meet its obligations.
The company reduced its 2014 revenue outlook to between $130 million and $140 million, down from a July estimate of between $175 million and $185 million.
Trading in Westport shares was halted pending the announcement by the company.
Westport said market uncertainty in its primary markets of Europe, Russia and China have affected revenue in its applied technologies business in the second half of this year.
As well, a change by its key development partners to move to a new high pressure direct injection system for its natural gas engines will defer related service revenue milestone payments in the near term.
Thirdly, a customer who placed a significant order for its LNG tank systems "has been unable to provide sufficient comfort to Westport that it will be able to meet its obligations and requirements in respect of such orders."
"As such Westport does not intend to ship product to this customer until such comfort has been received," the company said.
Westport also said it does not expect its combined three operating business units to report positive adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amoritization.
The company reiterated its goal of reporting consolidated positive adjusted EBITDA by the end of 2015.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.

Manga Movable Feast: The Takahashi pupu platter
By Jason S. Yadao
Voice actor Kappei Yamaguchi is visiting Hawaii this weekend.
I bring this up because, by coincidence, this week also marks the latest round of the Manga Movable Feast, that monthly delight where manga bloggers gather for a weeklong discussion of a particular series … or, in the case of this month's topic, multiple series by a single manga artist, Rumiko Takahashi. (Update 4/28: Here's a link to more links from this month's MMF, hosted by Rob McMonigal over at Panel Patter.) Yamaguchi was the anime voice of two of Takahashi's creations — Ranma in Ranma 1/2 and InuYasha in InuYasha.
So you can understand that tag-team partner in fandom Wilma J. and I have quite a bit on Takahashi on the mind this week. For Wilma, meeting Yamaguchi will very likely be one of the highlights, if not the highlight, of the convention. And for me, Yamaguchi's visit, combined with this month's MMF, reminds me just how much Takahashi's work has intertwined with our brand of anime/manga journalism here at the Star-Advertiser.
Back in the old days, when our paper was known as the Star-Bulletin and the Advertiser was our esteemed competition up South Street — more specifically, about a decade ago, when the Star-Bulletin editorial staff moved into its present offices at Waterfront Plaza — there was a column that ran on Sundays, "Drawn & Quartered," that focused on various comics. Several of Wilma's earliest contributions to that column focused on Takahashi works:
- Mermaid's Scar: http://archives.starbulletin.com/2001/05/27/features/jandoc.html
- Ranma 1/2: http://archives.starbulletin.com/2001/07/29/features/jandoc.html

But the lion's share of articles were produced under the banner of "Project T," a six-part "D&Q" miniseries published between November 2005 and March 2006. Looking back on it now, that was our best and most favorite "D&Q" collaborative project. Why did we call it "Project T"? We're also fans of Initial D, and this was around the time Initial D Fourth Stage was being released in Japan. So we took the name of the crew Ryosuke Takahashi assembled in that series — Project D — changed the "D" to a "T" and referred to the project by that name every time we discussed it internally. The name stuck.
And to think the idea for "Project T" was born out of these.
Meet the ubiquitous-for-the-mid-2000s "From the creator of InuYasha" sticker, plastered on the covers of every Takahashi volume coming out at the time. Ranma 1/2 reprints. Maison Ikkoku reprints. Mermaid Saga reprints. If Viz had decided to put "From the creator of … oh, you know, this series" on the cover of InuYasha itself, we wouldn't have been surprised. The stickers were appropriate, perhaps, because InuYasha was hyuuuuuuge at the time, but still … we wanted readers to know that the creator of InuYasha was so much more than, well, just the creator of InuYasha.
Plus those stickers really irritated us. Here, have a look at this One-Pound Gospel cover with one of them on it.
Bright yellow? Really? And may God help you if you ever wanted to cleanly remove the things to de-clutter your cover … you needed a jackhammer, a steamer and a whole lot of prayer, and even then it wouldn't guarantee that you'd get all the residue off. That's probably why the cover of Rin-ne looks like this…
… and probably also why we've never seen garish yellow stickers proclaiming "From the creator of Dragon Ball Z!" on Dr. Slump covers, or "From the creators of Death Note!" on Bakuman covers, or "From the creator of a hundred gazillion other series with huge, glittery-eyed characters!" on the covers of Arina Tanemura manga.
It's because of this sticker grudge and the fact that everyone knew about InuYasha at the time that the remains the only Takahashi series that we've never formally reviewed for the Star-Advertiser. Perhaps we will sometime down the line for the nostalgia value, but with 56 manga volumes and two rather lengthy anime series, it'll probably take us a while. But here's the complete "Project T" archive of what we did cover:
- Urusei Yatsura: http://archives.starbulletin.com/2005/10/09/features/story03.html
- Mermaid Saga: http://archives.starbulletin.com/2005/11/13/features/story03.html
- Maison Ikkoku: http://archives.starbulletin.com/2005/12/11/features/story04.html
- "Laughing Target," "Fire Tripper" and "Supergal/Maris the Chojo" (three stories from the Rumic World Trilogy): http://archives.starbulletin.com/2006/01/08/features/story03.html
- One-Pound Gospel: http://archives.starbulletin.com/2006/02/12/features/story05.html
- Rumiko Takahashi Anthology (a 13-episode series based on Takahashi's short stories): http://archives.starbulletin.com/2006/03/12/features/story04.html
Quite a bit has happened in the Takahashi universe since the last installment of Project T ran. One-Piece Gospel was finally completed, with its English-translated volume arriving in 2008. InuYasha did as well, its final translated volume landing on shelves earlier this year. As for Rin-ne, Takahashi's latest series and the last one we've written anything about to date (http://archives.starbulletin.com/content/20090609_Rin-ne_looks_like_another_hit_for_artist), if shelf space at local bookstores are any indication, it's a good series, but it doesn't look like it's selling anywhere near the numbers that InuYasha drew in its heyday.
But there's no denying this: Over the years, Rumiko Takahashi's works have had quite the impact for manga fans in the U.S. They've certainly made a difference in the lives of two otaku journalists on a small rock in the middle of the Pacific. that's for sure.
Update 5/1: Postscript: At Kappei Yamaguchi's Kawaii Kon panel on April 30, I asked him what it was like getting to meet Rumiko Takahashi during the recording for InuYasha (a meeting chronicled in The Art of InuYasha and reprinted on the Rumic World website) and how he felt about Takahashi enjoying his performances. I think something may have been lost in translation from English to Japanese back to English — no offense, and I don't know enough Japanese to be totally certain, but it seemed like the volunteer staffer doing the translating was a bit nervous and was missing quite a bit of the nuance of what Yamaguchi was saying. Because here's the translated answer:
He was happy and honored to play the lead role in both anime … those roles are very important to him.
Any of you out there want to take a stab at this? Here's the audio:

And yes, Wilma did got some of her Ranma 1/2 CD singles signed by Yamaguchi. She was thrilled. Pictures of that encounter to come.

@hefee, thanks for creating this ticket :)
#5 Updated by intrigeri about 1 year ago
Please add your comments and the start of the list of packages etc.
So I've read a private discussion from 1.5 year ago, extracted the relevant bits, and compiled the following list (on some of those I've changed my mind since ;)
What's I think is definitely in:
- Tools required for general use cases that we want to support (e.g. Browser, email client)
- Adapt Tails Installer or the Persistence assistant to a new version of GTK, iff. we have to (e.g. the old version of GTK is going away, or becomes poorly supported in current GNOME, or integrates poorly in current GNOME)
- Automatic upgrades, e.g.:
- Adapt Tails Upgrader to a change in underlying technology, iff. that change is being dictated to us (e.g. UDisks API change)
- Switch to a different upgrade system if/once there's a better realistic alternative to our in-house thing that only one person can touch
- Adapt WhisperBack to a change in Onion Services, because it's a tool that's beneficial for the project (and not only to our users): we need bug reports
- Adapt to a new KeePassX upstream version (or new upstream entirely)
- Avoid regressions in accessibility technologies and input methods
- Additional Software: we base more and more decisions on the fact we have this feature, and I think it's good
- XMPP+OTR, until we support other acceptable IM solutions that are compatible with the comms many more people use nowadays
- AppArmor for GUI apps, until we have better sandboxing
- Sandboxing of non-GUI key software such as tor
Unclear, needs some user research and/or strategic decisions:
- OpenPGP Applet and more generally, OpenPGP support apart of the basics (to be defined): see discussion on #8310
- VeraCrypt support (once it's fully upstreamed it'll be less maintenance work but what if it's never fully upstreamed? thankfully we'll soon have survey results that should help us assess how important this is in the end)
- Memory erasure on shutdown and on boot medium removal: it's one of our "signature" features but OTOH, we're not even sure it has made a practical difference in 1+ cases.
Not in:
- Electrum
- "Niche" utilities: MAT, Onion Circuits
- IRC support: mostly used by power-users who'll have no problem installing their preferred client themselves (which, incidentally, might not be Pidgin, and might run on a remote server)
- RSS/Atom feed support
Finally, wrt. whether brand new features developed outside of the FT become part of the core Tails system that the FT is supposed to maintain: in theory they do, but we need to take into account our skill set, and whenever the new thing is way outside of our comfort zone, either pick another technology (that we are in a position to maintain) or budget maintenance work by external contractors; better think about this before the feature is ready.

The next step is probably to connect these to our personas. I'm not sure how best to proceed.

sajolida's conclusion on #16709 is "we should […] consider the possibility of doing OpenPGP operations from the GUI a core feature of Tails".
#12 Updated by intrigeri 9 months ago
- Status changed from Confirmed to In Progress
- Target version changed from Tails_3.15 to Tails_3.16
Proposed a process: https://lists.autistici.org/message/20190706.142905.422d51c9.en.html. Next step for me happens early August.

Three years remaining on contract, 49ers extend Bowman
The San Francisco 49ers haven't had much to celebrate over the past couple of seasons, especially coming off a 5-11 2015 campaign.

I've been back to the torch. A little rusty with the stringer control, but this color combination just inspired me to keep going and going!
There are enough here to do a bracelet and earrings, maybe even a necklace, if there are plenty of "companion" beads added in.
I have some others in the kiln and am having trouble letting it cool completely. I'll post them later, or if I must, tomorrow.
The past couple of mornings, I've been getting up early, coming out to the shop and just "going to town". It's a good system for me and I need to keep at it. There is a "edge" involved in lampworking and too much time away from the torch will cause one to lose it.
