Hi Fi
I wore this helmet all last season and it got its job done really well. I needed a good protection helmet to keep myself from getting concussions while getting inverted. The 180 airpad system is so sweet it really makes a difference in saving your noggin and also makes for a sort of custom fit helmet. The only thing i dont like about it is that it looks really big. i would recommend this helmet to anyone that wants a lightweight and very durable protecting helmet.
This is the first helmet I've used. I used it for about 1 1/2 seasons and like it a lot. It did seem a little bulky but nothing too serious. My goggles fit on well, but they wont stay if you push em up onto your forehead (if that makes sense). It's real comfortable and warm - had to add a layer underneath on some subzero days but a great helmet overall.
This helmet is super light weight. If you take the pads from the inside out, you can wear a beanie under it. You can put headphones in the ear flap things but I never did. I fell a few times and this helmet did its job well. Looks pretty sick since mine is covered in stickers. Overall, a decent helmet for the dough.
This helmet is rad it is light ,comfortable and looks great. It also fits well with so many goggles including oakley anons dragons and electrics! It does dint fairly easily but is great if you look after it well.
its very light, comfortable, and fit is great. there's even a reebok pump action for a better custom fit. is easy to disassemble the lining and earpads for hot days. the earpads is one piece with a neck protector which i stuffed my bluetooth headphones in and works great. on hot days, it def. can use better vents. and it looks bulky compare to other helmets i was interested in, but picked this one for its fit.
I found the sizing chart to be spot on with this helmet and it is extremely comfortable and insanely lightweight that you hardly notice it. It said an xl suits a head measurement of 61-63cm and I measured 62cm which was perfect. The ventilation system seems ok but not perfect. You can't adjust the openings to suit like you can on other models. On hot days I often spend time riding without it [unless I'm in the park] but I know no helmet is perfect for all temperatures. I have not purchased the red phones so I can't speak for them but overall this is the best helmet I have ridin' in. Well done RED
Switched from wearing a beanie to this recently and I barely noticed the difference. Keeps me warm, safe and fits well with my a-frame goggles
I totally expected more from this helmet. It seemed to be the one to get. After using it a few times, I found the ear cups to fit more narrow on the head and they put a lot of pressure on the ears. The best way to relieve the pressure was to remove the padding from the cups. Also, the air system in the back never worked. Needless to say, I was a tad disappointed
I prefer red helmets cuz they fit my head really well. I've tried their mutiny and trace series and like this one much more (way lighter than either of those). Its so light that I don't notice it at all through out the day. As far as fit goes, I don't notice any difference when I use the air pump thing on it but it fits my head perfectly without it so no big deal. Haven't hit my head with this current helmet but I have with other Red helmets with a headache and nothing else so I'm assuming this is just as sturdy as their others.
like this helmet. it does its job. i like the how you have different lengths when you clip it on. the ear pads are removable for those hotter days on the mountains.
Awesome helmet. Keeps my head safe and sound and also is very warm. I like the design on the back too, good little bonus. I had to get this cause I was hitting my head a lot in the park and I didn't want to do any permanent head damage. I haven't had and more hard hits because this helmet protects me. I definitely recommend it for and rider
This helmet has a very good fit and is comfortable. It has already saved me once...I would definitely recommend. I wear a 7 1/2 hat and a large in this helmet.
I like this helmet in terms of fit and style, but it's not the most solid helmet around. It ended up cracking on a fall onto moderately hard snow and burton's warranty does not actually cover damage due to falls. Considering generally the only time a helmet is broken is on a fall, this makes it worthless. They'll give you a discount on a new helmet, but this discount isn't much better than buying.
Great helmet. It fits great and light weight. It doesn't bother me at all when I ride. Great protection also, saved my head more then once.

If you read this little blog you'll know towards the end of last year I started practising fashion illustration and drawing pretty girls as a change from animals.. plus I have more time to experiment now I'm a graduate. So here's a few flicks of work in progress. Started drawing Rihanna this week, she's unfinished but I've found myself hardly ever completely finishing these illustrations - I think I'm scared I'll ruin them! I kinda like the unfinished feel anyway... Happy with riri but there's something not quite right.. not sure if it's her eyes! Also been trying out new blending techniques and I don't think I've got them down to a t either.. but practice makes perfect! Anyway I'm going to scan her in and play around on photoshop, I'll blog with the finished illustration when I'm done.

Whether it's rational or not, there's something very satisfying when your pharmacist acknowledges you personally—it makes you feel like this expert you're placing such trust in takes the job, and you, seriously.

Paul Nussbaum, a clinical neuropsychologist who founded the Brain Health Center, Inc. that will open near Pittsburgh, Penn., this fall, has lectured on brain health around the United States and in other countries for 15 years.
Nussbaum advocates a holistic approach to brain fitness that includes nutrition, socialization, mental stimulation, physical activity and spirituality.

"When you put your brain in a new and difficult situation, it likes that," Nussbaum said, referring to "brain resilience" that forms when the mind is actively engaged. "It's not a cure, not even a prevention — but it provides a natural defense that can delay the onset of Alzheimer's."
Nussbaum figures that the Holladay bridge players are reaping rewards well beyond the nickels and quarters they toss in the kitty.
"Bridge is complex, so they're having to think in new ways," Nussbaum said. "They're sharing stories and having fun, so they're reducing stress. Maybe they can do a little walking and eat some fish — within a few hours they've been given all the elements that promote the health of the brain."
To this female gang of eight, they've found few things better than sharing life together over a fistful of cards.
"I think it helps keep the mind sharp. They say it does," Hilton said. "It gives me something to look forward to, that's for sure."

5 Fracking Consequences You've Never Heard About
Lisa Garber, Natural Society
Waking Times
We know fracking isn't exactly the safest of practices. We've heard of its propensity to pollute our air and drinking water and thereby raise human health concerns. The media, however, isn't talking about the massive sinkholes pockmarking the nation, the radiation leaks, and other lesser known but no less earth-shattering effects of fracking.
Here are 5 other consequences of fracking you may not have heard of until now.
1. Methane-Spewing Geysers
Fracking is the act of pumping water and chemicals underground in order to facilitate the flow of oil or gas.
It's not terribly hard for a giant corporation like Shell or Chesapeake Energy Corporation to start fracking wherever the company pleases (check out the next factoid for more on that). Regulators don't even require drilling companies to search the area for abandoned wells. This is why unplugged, forgotten wells—like Butters well in Pennsylvania's Tioga County, drilled in 1932 —literally burst with gas when drilling displaces underground pockets of methane. As it turns out, Shell knew about Butters well—just not if it was plugged.
Abandoned wells aren't the only ways disrupted gas escapes. Cracks in the ground can also emit this highly flammable gas.
2. Your Land is my Land
One Chesapeake employee was recorded saying, "If properties don't want to sign, if we have 90 percent secured of the well that we need, we have the power to put these people in the lease without their permission. … We can do whatever we want."
Chesapeake and other drilling corporations are eager to spend billions to snag drilling rights. They do the math and it's no wonder states follow suit.
"In its petition, Chesapeake told regulators its proposed drilling unit could produce 4.5 million barrels of oil and 3.5 billion cubic feet and natural gas—if the plots of the 49 land owners who didn't lease their property to Chesapeake were included. If not, Chesapeake said, the unit would be 75 percent less productive and would miss out on an additional $71 million in revenue, according to its application. That math carried the day."
3. Milk Production Dips
If water is contaminated, so too will be crops…and livestock. Despite the compensation given to farmers for leasing their land to fracking companies, dairy farmers may be doing themselves a considerable disfavor. According to university researchers, milk production decreased by 19 percent in Pennsylvania's counties with 150 or more Marcellus Shale wells compared to a 1.2 percent decrease in counties with no wells.

4. Contaminated Wine
Fracking-derived groundwater pollution doesn't just mean contaminated drinking water (although that's a concern enough that the EPA has finally admitted it). Dirty water means dirty crops, and even dirty wine.
Simon Salinas, a member of Monterey County's Board of Supervisors, says in response to Venoco's prospective drilling in the vineyard-rich county, "Anything that can taint our water and food supply could be devastating to our economy." It doesn't help that Monterey already competes with Napa and Sonoma wine, and proximity to fracking activity would do nothing for the region's marketability.
One winery in Brooklyn, NY, even hosted an anti-fracking benefit. "Many of our wine bar's seasonal menu items include ingredients grown on upstate farms," the winery's web site read.
5. Contaminated Food, Stillborn Calves and Poisoned Animals
Not even the all-American burger (grassfed or not) is sacred from the dangers of fracking. Fracking fluid consumption killed 16 cows in Louisiana, and hundreds of others raised near fracking sites are being reported affected. When 28 beef cattle in Pennsylvania were exposed to fracking fluid recently, 8 of 11 calves birthed thereafter were stillborn.
Many doctors are protesting fracking, and direct contamination via the air and water mustn't be the only considered contributors to fracking-related cancers. We are what we eat, after all, and fracking as of yet seems to be little more than just another inventive way to slowly poison the earth and ourselves. The greater problem lying in energy consumption, however, will make resolution difficult.
Where do you stand?

I give up, I throw my hands up. I'm 100% convinced that man's greed for money and power is going to be the death of every human, including those money hungry corporate types, on this planet. As one astronaut so eloquently said while in space, looking at that big, beautiful, blue ball, floating in space and seems so peaceful, when in actuality, planet earth is a very violent place. It is sad how people have let greed consume their lives and spirituality. The crimes happening every day are consuming the news and our lives. It is sad that humans don't appreciate being able to share this beautiful planet and thank God for the time they have on it. Instead, humans are destroying the planet through wars, pollution, drillings, fracking, etc. It really saddens me and people may think I'm silly, but I apologize to the planet for the destruction man is doing to it, but it will be here long after every human is gone. In reality, humans are destroying themselves, the earth will survive until it's time to die. In a way, by destroying themselves, humans are doing the earth a favor.
Human Beings are the only species on the planet, that should they all disappear tomorrow, the planet would be better off.
Every time I hear the word fracking I get h0rny. It make me think about the neighbor lady and how I'd love to frack her.
You're not silly, I feel EXACTLY the same way. I live on 11 beautiful acres of wood up in the mountains and I love the abundant, diverse wildlife here. I find myself apologizing frequently for all the destruction humanity has created. I'm watching our beloved woods die, more rapidly as time goes on. What I've come to realize is that the only truly important thing is love – that we love and are loved back. I hang onto that everyday and treasure my family and friends as much as I can. I hope you can find some peace in the midst of the maelstrom and keep hope alive. Blessings on you and yours.

Subaru of America, Inc. Ranks Amongst the Highest in Residual Value
Nov 20 , 2008 [USA]
Subaru Forester Wins Top Award in the Compact Utility Vehicle Category and the Subaru Brand Ranks Second-Highest in Residual Value
CHERRY HILL, N.J., November 20, 2008 Subaru of America, Inc. today announced that it has received Residual Value Awards from Automotive Lease Guide (ALG). The 2009 Subaru Forester won the top award in the Compact Utility Vehicle category, while the Subaru brand collected an award as the second-highest brand for residual value.
ALGs 10th annual Residual Value Awards, for the 2009 model year, honored the vehicles in each industry segment that ALG predicts will retain the highest percentage of their original price after a conventional three-year lease term.
ALG determines the award winners after carefully studying the competition in each segment, historical vehicle performance and industry trends. Vehicle quality, production levels relative to demand, and pricing strategies are among the key factors that affect ALGs residual value forecasts. The complete list of this years awards can be found on www.alg.com.
"This is exciting news for Subaru of America," said Tomohiko Ikeda, chairman, president and CEO for Subaru of America, Inc. "Winning second across the industry in terms of ALG predicted value reinforces the attributes of the Subaru brand - durability, reliability and safety - all at a great value."
"The secret about Subaru is getting out - thanks to a streak of wins anchored by the Motor Trend Sport/Utility of the Year Award for the 2009 Forester and Kelley Blue Book naming Subaru as one of the top Resale Value Brands of 2009, said Tom Doll, executive vice president for Subaru of America, Inc. Subaru sales being up in a down market underscores the fact that the news is getting to customers about our vehicles.
We believe Residual Value remains the best metric for evaluating the overall strength of an automotive brand, and we congratulate Subaru for the proven success, said John Blair, Chief Executive Officer of Automotive Lease Guide.

" Brand: Chanel / Type: Lipstick / Suitable for: Lip / What it does: Hydrates, "
* Prices may differ from that shown
I have only ever bough cheap lipsticks (e.g. Boots 17). I have alays been reasonable happy with them, but as I suffer from dry lips I can't seem to wear them to often. I decided to treat myself to a more expensive one, in the hope that it would make my lips look more moist and that I could therefore wear it more of the time. I was going abroad to a wedding, so this seemed like an ideal treat. It was expensive at £22 from my local department store, Fenwicks, but I hoped it would be well worth it. I bought it in a light pink shade as I hoped it would be generic and long lasting so it could almost be seen as in investment.
The lipstick comes in very classy packaging. The tube it is in is a gloss black, very plain and like a square with rounded off corners. It has the famous chanel label on the lid. The lid lifts off to give a metal twist type dispenser with is nice and lose and moves easily up and down. The lipstick itself is a lovely colour and has no real scent, it is fairly neutral, so it wont irritate you when it is on your lips.
The lipstick feels quite moist and is therefore easy to apply as it just slides on. It doesn't get caught on, and therefore exagerate any dry patches. It acts only to enhance your lips rather than highlight the bad bits! It looks gorgeous on, has a shimmer to it and doesnt appear to be block colour, so looks more natural and less dramatic than full coverage, which is ideal for me and the circumstances I wanted this lipstick for. The finish was shiney, but not 100% complete sheen like I had mirrors stuck to my lips!
The lipstick was incredibly long lasting and looked beautiful on. It didnt plump my lips or make them appear fuller, but to be hones I wasn't after that. I really like this lipstick and for once I might use one to the end and actually finish it!!
I first experienced Chanel lipstick when I was trying out makeup for my wedding. I went to the Chanel counter as their makeup had been recommended to me by a friend who said that it will last a long time during the day.
The assistant at the counter tried a few lipsticks with me after I told her that I wanted a natural look that would last a long time during my Wedding. I eventually chose a light brown lipstick and liner with a clear gloss to go over the top. As this was a natural look choice for my Wedding day, I also chose a browny red shade for nights out!
I have tried many different brands of lipstick and Chanel is really one of my favourites. It is a luxury item though which I splurged on before my Wedding but it has lasted a long time. I can rely on the lipstick not to wear off quickly or spread everywhere after kissing or eating. It also seems to moisturise my lips rather than drying them out as other brands have done.
Throughout my Wedding Day I only had to reapply twice until the end of the evening. I loved the natural look that the lipstick gave for my Wedding Day and I also love the look that my other Chanel lipstick gives me for evenings out - which is more dramatic and very glam.
I also love the classy look of chanel products that will look great in your makeup bag! The lipsticks have a black casing with a gold letter C on the top. You really feel special when wearing it.
In Summary:
If you really want to spoil yourself on an item that you can rely on, then this is the one.
Essential lipstick! This product comes in an array of colours but I only use the darkest reds so demand good colour destiny and coverage which this product certainly delivers. Finding that exact shade of red is never easy and Chanel delivers in droves with this lipstick. Once in place it stays, is durable and does not leave that awful lipstick mark on a glass, cigarette or your boyfriend's collar. I use a lipstick brush for this lipstick as it is so good that to apply direct is overkill but doing that means it lasts longer.
Packaged in classic Chanel black, these look so good when you take them out to touch up.
Chanel also do a range of excellent lip liners which create a perfect compliment to these brilliant lipsticks but not essential as this product is simply the best of its kind, classic brilliance in product and packaging. Highly recommended.
If you like rich and creamy lipsticks but don't mind paying extra for them then head down to your local Chanel counter.
The Chanel Hydrabase lipstick is an astounding product that has classy and sophisticated packaging with a product inside that does not fail to impress. The packaging is designed well in order for comfortable application.
The lipstick itself has a moisturising formula with a deep satin effect coverage. Due to the fact that it is enhanced with Vitamin E & Camomile, the lipstick has a soft, creamy and therapeutic feel.
The shade that I use is 'Aura'. I find that it is a very subtle and sophisticated every day shade which gives me long lasting and equal coverage.
The lipstick comes in a wide range of colours and is a necessity for the make up bag.
This is a good product which will last a long time and is worth those extra pennies.
I've got a great deal of time for Chanel makeup. Sure, it's expensive, but it's so full of pigment that you'll find it lasts much longer than a lot of other brands, even the high end ones. If you're susceptible to dry or bitty lips, then the Hydrabase range is for you. The lipstick really does moisturise, smooth out and plump up your lips, which is something I've not found with many brands. The colours are wonderful, too; the nice thing about Chanel is that they get the sought-after, fashionable colours in months before many of the other companies do. Remember Uma Thurman in Pulp Fiction? That was Chanel's Rouge Noir, which was so popular it remained almost impossible to buy for about a year after the film came out. There are loads of different finishes too; metallic, creamy, sheer...you'll have to check them out. At the last count I had an embarrassing 12 different colours of Hydrabase. It's the only lipstick I use these days. It's long lasting, (almost as good as those painfully drying cheaper ones which claim to be kissproof, although it makes no claims to be), has a gorgeous texture, leaves your lips soft, comes in colours that will suit everyone, and, last but not least, smells really nice too. I've an enduring love for the Chanel sales staff. They're not pushy, they're incredibly helpful, and they don't push stuff you don't want on you. The bullets the stuff comes in are typically stylish; black with the interlocking Cs and a gold band. It makes you feel rather swish when you're doing up your make up in public, if you're as shallow as I seem to be. Buy one and see what you think.
Moisturizing formula; imparts broad range of fashion-forward colours with a long-lasting satiny finish and medium coverage

San Francisco Premiere. In Person: Justin Krumb, Director; Jonny Vasic, Producer; Kyle Thiermann, Surfer and 2011 Brower Youth Award Winner
5 years in the making, this beautiful documentary chronicles professional surfer Dave "Rasta" Rastovich's path to protect dolphins, whales and their ocean environment. Rasta's latest campaign to increase ocean awareness – a 660km, 36-day sailing expedition coinciding with a humpback whale migration along Australia's Gold Coast – provides the backdrop for his 5-year exploration "that unexpectedly blossomed into a movement."
Inspired by interactions with dolphins while surfing, Rasta's international quest to gather support from fellow professional surfers including Andy Irons and Kelly Slater, seek guidance in the Galapagos and Chile from eco-warrior Paul Watson of Sea Shepherd, and visit with California's first coastal population, the Chumash Indians, eventually leads to a showdown in the dolphin-killing waters of Taiji, Japan, made notorious in the Academy Award-winning documentary The Cove.
With special appearances by Ric O'Barry, Hayden Panettiere, Joel Parkinson, Louie Psihoyos, and featuring music by the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Jack Johnson, Minds in the Water showcases one of surfing's great talents on a single-minded mission to answer the call to protect the ocean and its inhabitants. - Pamela Campbell

Common Functional Principal Components
AbstractFunctional principal component analysis (FPCA) based on the Karhunen-Lo`eve decomposition has been successfully applied in many applications, mainly for one sample problems. In this paper we consider common functional principal components for two sample problems. Our research is motivated not only by the theoretical challenge of this data situation but also by the actual question of dynamics of implied volatility (IV) functions. For different maturities the logreturns of IVs are samples of (smooth) random functions and the methods proposed here study the similarities of their stochastic behavior. Firstly we present a new method for estimation of functional principal components from discrete noisy data. Next we present the two sample inference for FPCA and develop two sample theory. We propose bootstrap tests for testing the equality of eigenvalues, eigenfunctions, and mean functions of two functional samples, illustrate the test-properties by simulation study and apply the method to the IV analysis.

Topic - Dorking and climbing?
AJM - on 13 Nov 2012
So, obviously it's in the south east so it isn't exactly going to be great. but I might have to spend a few months there for work.
Walls nearby? I'm guessing either Guildford (Craggy) or perhaps heading back into London? Craggy 2, if I've found it right, isn't too far away on the train? Is getting back into London for stuff like the biscuit factory feasible?
Outside? Google maps looks like its under an hour to Stone Farm and about an hour to Harrisons. Is that fantasy fairyland if you were leaving work at 6 say to expect to get a couple of hours of bouldering in, or is it more like 2 hours in typical evening traffic?
And which of the sandstone outcrops are best for bouldering on the west side of the area - is stone farm say any good for bouldering say V4-7 range? I have spent a bit of time further east at Harrison's mainly, but usually roped rather than bouldering.

Budgeting your finances is one of the most annoying yet important tasks for a college student. Keeping track of all your receipts manually and putting them all in a piece of paper or even an excel spreadsheet isn't our favorite thing to do, even for the "organized types" amongst us. Here's where Mint.com comes in, a site and associated mobile apps that helps you manage your finances while helping you prioritize and cut back on your expenses.
Signing up for Mint is easy and free. Once you have signed up you can connect all your accounts: savings, checking, credit card and for different types of loans to Mint using their respective passwords. Don't worry about the security of your account, Mint connects over APIs offered by the banks and financial institutions and doesn't actually see your password. Moreover, it's owned by Intuit, the same people that own Quickbooks and Turbotax, so they are reputable.
Once Mint collects all your financial information, it automatically categorizes your expenses. If you are a visual type like me, the various graphs and pie charts are very useful in understanding the various facets of your finances. For instance, there's a very handy pie chart that shows you where you are spending your money. You can view a wide range of graphs and charts by selecting your time frame and the type of graph or chart you'd like to see.
Mint also lets you create budgets based on which it alerts you if you have exceeded the budget for a particular category during a month. One nifty little add-on is the ability to compare your spending to the US average, which tells you where exactly do you fit in within the 99% (or the 1%, what do I know?). Another feature Mint offers is goals, which might be something you'll use more once you have graduated. There are several preset goals like Pay Off Credit Card Debt, Take a Trip, or Pay Off College. You can also create a customized goal with an end date or a monthly amount. Mint will help you track and accomplish your goal.
So what are you waiting for? Go ahead and sign up for mint and start budgeting. And once you have done that download their apps for iPhone, iPad, Android and Android tablets. If you are looking more choice, Pageonce (https://www.pageonce.com/) is another option to look at.

Got a Sleepless Baby? You'll Love This
Restless babies love iPhones.
You use your iPhone to surf the 'Net, listen to tunes, even watch movies. But a new iPhone application can give you -- and your baby -- a good night's sleep.
It's called Sleepy Baby and it's designed to help your little one ease into a peaceful slumber. Experts say babies sleep better when lulled by repetitive, monotonous sounds like a whirring fan, bubbling fish tank, ticking clock, or vacuum cleaner. That's because these noises remind infants of the peaceful womb when the sound of the mother's blood steam and heart rate created constant rhythmic beats.
This neat iPhone application is only 99 cents and comes equipped with five sounds: Heartbeat, fan, vacuum cleaner, white noise, and "Shhhh!"
No, it won't breastfeed or potty train your little one, but here's to a good night's sleep!
Good info! Enjoyable reading. I just have a small point to submit about funny shirts.
my baby is over 6months,doesnt sleep at all,taking naps thrue the day for 20 min and go to bed affter bathtime thats about 8 o'clock.then after 30 min hes awake till 11/12 o'clock

Top six data breach trends for 2014
Experian Data Breach Resolution's Michael Bruemmer discusses what's in store for the year ahead
The massive data breach recently suffered by Target is a prime example of the consequences organizations face when confidential information is either lost or stolen. Not only did it impact sales during the crucial holiday shopping period, but it also shook the confidence of many of the retailer's loyal customers. The retail giant could also take a substantial financial hit. According to USA Today, multiple class-action lawsuits have already been filed against Target as a result of the breach and attorney generals in at least four states have asked the company for more information about the incident.
Of course, the theft of debit and credit card information from Target was just one of numerous data breaches that occurred last year. When it comes to 2014, however, the outlook for the impact and scope of data breaches appears to be mixed, according to a whitepaper published last month by Experian Data Breach Resolution. "In terms of this study, we felt we were in a good position to go ahead and provide some commentary on 2014 because we had another record year for number of incidents that we actually serviced," said Michael Bruemmer, the company's vice president.
Here are six data breach trends that Bruemmer and his team at Experian expect to see in 2014:
1. Data breach costs to decline.
Bruemmer said he believes that the costs of data breaches will continue to go down this year due to what he calls the three "I's": Increased awareness, increased preparedness and the influence of market demand.
"Recently we saw a study that was done by Dell SecureWorks where they found that in 2012, the cost of a full identity went down from about $40 to about $28," he explained. "On the black market, people that are able to buy and sell identities just aren't getting as much money as they were a year ago."
2. Will the combination of the cloud and big data result in more international data breaches?
Because of the expansiveness of big data around the world and more international operations by U.S. companies, Bruemmer believes that the industry will see an increase in international incidents.
"At the same time, you're also going to have the new regulations that the EU is working on… and there are two features that we're watching very closely," he said. "What's going to be the time for notification and is it going to be as short as five days as is what is being proposed to the data protection authority and to affected parties, and then also the impact if you get fined for not meeting those guidelines. The talk that it may be a fine of up to two to five percent of worldwide revenue for an international company, which is very significant, will get people's attention."
3. Potential floodgates open to healthcare breaches.
Given the amount of media coverage about the lack of safeguards surrounding the new online healthcare exchange that was created late last year as a result of the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, Bruemmer believes that this is an area that people should pay close attention to in 2014. One of the problems, according to Bruemmer, is the sheer number of people that will be putting their personal information into the website.
"There have been reports that the data is not as secure as what people had hoped and these are reports even from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services," he added.
Bruemmer said that between 45 and 50 percent of all incidents they service at Experian occur within the healthcare sector.
"The best advice that we give everybody is to have an incident response plan in place because it's really not a question of if you're going to have a data breach, but when will it occur," he said. "Where we've seen clients have an incident response plan in place or as required by HIPAA and HITECH… we've seen organizations are much better prepared to react to that incident and respond accordingly."
4. Surge in adoption of cyber insurance.

If you think your private information may have been compromised, there's an important step you need to take now to make sure you get your tax refund next year.
Tax expert, Dan Thomas, an Enrolled Agent with Jackson Hewitt says ID Theft victims need to be proactive.
"If anybody has had their identity compromised in the course of the past year, make sure and file the identity theft affidavit," said Thomas.
Check one of two boxes saying you're either a victim or "experienced an event involving personal information.
The government will assign you an IP PIN sent to you in the mail.
Now, it doesn't stop with filling out this form. You've got to do 2 more things. One, file a police report. The second is contact 2 of the 3 major credit reporting agencies:
Equifax: 800-525-6285, www.equifax.com
Experian: 888-397-3742, www.experian.com
TransUnion: 800-680-7289, www.transunion.com
Thomas says the problem is only getting worse.
"It's been increasing since 2009 to the current year, it's been astronomical, the IRS has designated 3000 IRS agents to solve the problem. This year until July the 30th they had 660,000 problems solved with still a caseload to go," he said.
ID theft victims might be caught unawares when information was hacked. But knowing now how to protect themselves gives them a chance to make sure it doesn't happen again.
