Texas cancer trial network shuts down

AUSTIN (AP) ? A fledgling Texas cancer trials network announced Tuesday that it had shut down after auditors found more than $300,000 in expenses deemed inappropriate in the latest blow to the state's troubled $3 billion cancer-fighting agency.

The Clinical Trials Network of Texas received a $25 million grant from the state in 2010, though it had only received about $7 million in taxpayer dollars before running out of money last month. State officials began halting payments after auditors raised questions that included how the network even won funding in the first place.

The clinical trial network, or CTNeT, obtained the largest grant ever awarded by the embattled Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas, which now adds this failure to a litany of woes. Those include an ongoing criminal investigation, mass resignations and rebuke from lawmakers and scientists over controversial awards and accusations of political meddling.

A scathing report of the institute released by state auditors this week revealed that Patricia Winger, the chief operations officer of CTNeT, was paid $160,000 in bonuses on top of her base salary. CTNeT also spent more than $116,000 for interior decorations and furniture, which auditors said are expenses "unallowable or questionable" for a research grant under state agency rules.

Dr. Charles Geyer, chief medical officer of CTNetT, told The Associated Press the nonprofit needed to set up offices for its 36 employees. He said he wasn't involved in the decisions surrounding Winger's bonuses but defended her role, saying she used her own money to help get the effort off the ground.

Attempts to reach Winger through CTNeT and others affiliated with the network were not immediately successful Tuesday.

"I understand the appearance. But I know Ms. Winger, and she did a lot," Geyer said. "She worked basically for three months before she got her first paycheck. ...She made a lot of sacrifices because she was committed to this."

Geyer said he did not know Winger's salary. Thirty employees with CTNet have been laid off, and Geyer said the remaining six are working at minimum wage to finish winding down the initiative.

Geyer said the trial network is folding just as progress was finally being made. Just a week ago, Geyer said, the network was on the verge of enrolling patients in its first clinical trial.

"The real irony is that we were really on the cusp of launching the thing in a very serious way," Geyer said.

Bill Gimson, the former executive director of cancer institute who resigned last month as problems with the state agency mounted, said in an email to the AP that the intent of the network was to provide more opportunities for Texas cancer patients to enroll in clinical trials. Only 3 percent of Texans with cancer are in clinical trials, Gimson said.

"CTNeT was created for Texas to help cancer patients in the State access a higher level of care," GImson said. "It is groundbreaking, imaginative and revolutionary and does not fit the mold of, nor can be judged as, a typical state-funded effort."

The cancer institute was a darling of the scientific community and some of the nation's biggest advocacy groups, including the American Cancer Society, after launching in 2009 as an unprecedented cancer-fighting effort on the state level. The agency oversees the nation's second-largest pot of cancer research dollars, next to only the federal National Institutes of Health.

That money is now frozen, with the institute under a moratorium until confidence in the agency is restored. Prior to CTNeT shutting down, most troublesome to the state agency was awarding $11 million to a private biotech firm in Dallas despite never reviewing the company's proposal.

That led to public corruption officers in Travis County and the Texas attorney general's office launched separate investigations. No one has been accused of wrongdoing.

Yemen seizes ship carrying weapons

SANAA, Yemen (AP) ? Yemeni authorities have seized a ship in the nation's territorial waters carrying explosives and weapons, including anti-aircraft missiles, the state news agency reported Tuesday.

The report said Yemen's coast guard intercepted the ship last week in an operation coordinated with the U.S. Navy. It did not say why news of the interception was not announced earlier.

The report said the vessel's eight crew members were Yemenis and that its destination and source of the weapons were under investigation.

Yemen has recently witnessed several cases of illegal arms shipments through its porous shores on the Red and Arabian seas.

Yemen is home to an active branch of al-Qaida, which staged several failed or foiled attacks on U.S. territory over the past several years.

On Tuesday, officials said attacks by Yemen's air force killed at least 16 al-Qaida militants and wounded dozens of others. The officials said the air force launched several air attacks in central Yemen, where the militants have bases.

In another operation, the Yemen military freed 13 soldiers captured by al-Qaida Monday night. The soldiers were on their way to transport troops and a military ambulance when they lost their way, straying into al-Qaida-held territory, where they were captured.

The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to brief reporters.

Flipping burgers sets example for team - Business Management Daily

There?s no single method to motivate entry-level employees. You need a range of communication tools to ignite their on-the-job passion.

Rich Snyder ran In-N-Out Burger from 1976 until 1993, when he died in a plane crash. The popular West Coast burger chain grew steadily under Snyder?s leadership, hiring rapidly to fill positions in newly opened restaurants. Snyder knew he needed to create mechanisms to motivate newcomers.

A dyslexic, Snyder preferred verbal and visual communication. He liked to mingle with restaurant crews and praise their performance, but he also developed what he called ?Burger Television? to reach more people at once. Employees throughout the company could watch videos on topics ranging from safety tips to new restaurant openings.

Snyder often appeared on air as a kind of genial talk-show host, interviewing employees about their friendly attitude and superior performance.

In addition to televising news and information about the company to boost morale, Snyder understood the role of status as a motivator. Because the company?s success hinged on its core product?burgers?Snyder abandoned conventional wisdom: Instead of assigning low-paid employees to flip the meat, he insisted that only store managers could work the grill.

Every burger was made to order, so Snyder wanted to emphasize to his work??force that only the most skilled, experienced individuals could develop the speed and coordination to handle such a critical job. As a result, em??ployees worked hard to earn the right to grill burgers?a task that competing chains viewed as monotonous.

FBI: We Need Wiretap-Rready Web sites - Now - Care2 News Network

Friday January 25, 2013, 7:08 pm

CNET learns the FBI is quietly pushing its plan to force surveillance backdoors on social networks, VoIP, and Web e-mail providers, and that the bureau is asking Internet companies not to oppose a law making those backdoors mandatory.

The FBI is asking Internet companies not to oppose a controversial proposal that would require firms, including Microsoft, Facebook, Yahoo, and Google, to build in backdoors for government surveillance.

In meetings with industry representatives, the White House, and U.S. senators, senior FBI officials argue the dramatic shift in communication from the telephone system to the Internet has made it far more difficult for agents to wiretap Americans suspected of illegal activities, CNET has learned.

The FBI general counsel's office has drafted a proposed law that the bureau claims is the best solution: requiring that social-networking Web sites and providers of VoIP, instant messaging, and Web e-mail alter their code to ensure their products are wiretap-friendly.

"If you create a service, product, or app that allows a user to communicate, you get the privilege of adding that extra coding," an industry representative who has reviewed the FBI's draft legislation told CNET. The requirements apply only if a threshold of a certain number of users is exceeded, according to a second industry representative briefed on it.

The FBI's proposal would amend a 1994 law, called the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act, or CALEA, that currently applies only to telecommunications providers, not Web companies. The Federal Communications Commission extended CALEA in 2004 to apply to broadband networks

FBI Director Robert Mueller is not asking companies to support the bureau's CALEA expansion, but instead is "asking what can go in it to minimize impacts," one participant in the discussions says. That included a scheduled trip this month to the West Coast -- which was subsequently postponed -- to meet with Internet companies' CEOs and top lawyers.

A further expansion of CALEA is unlikely to be applauded by tech companies, their customers, or privacy groups. Apple (which distributes iChat and FaceTime) is currently lobbying on the topic, according to disclosure documents filed with Congress two weeks ago. Microsoft (which owns Skype and Hotmail) says its lobbyists are following the topic because it's "an area of ongoing interest to us." Google, Yahoo, and Facebook declined to comment.

In February 2011, CNET was the first to report that then-FBI general counsel Valerie Caproni was planning to warn Congress of what the bureau calls its "Going Dark" problem, meaning that its surveillance capabilities may diminish as technology advances. Caproni singled out "Web-based e-mail, social-networking sites, and peer-to-peer communications" as problems that have left the FBI "increasingly unable" to conduct the same kind of wiretapping it could in the past.

In addition to the FBI's legislative proposal, there are indications that the Federal Communications Commission is considering reinterpreting CALEA to demand that products that allow video or voice chat over the Internet -- from Skype to Google Hangouts to Xbox Live -- include surveillance backdoors to help the FBI with its "Going Dark" program. CALEA applies to technologies that are a "substantial replacement" for the telephone system.

"We have noticed a massive uptick in the amount of FCC CALEA inquiries and enforcement proceedings within the last year, most of which are intended to address 'Going Dark' issues," says Christopher Canter, lead compliance counsel at the Marashlian and Donahue law firm, which specializes in CALEA. "This generally means that the FCC is laying the groundwork for regulatory action."

Subsentio, a Colorado-based company that sells CALEA compliance products and worked with the Justice Department when it asked the FCC to extend CALEA seven years ago, says the FBI's draft legislation was prepared with the compliance costs of Internet companies in mind.

In a statement to CNET, Subsentio President Steve Bock said that the measure provides a "safe harbor" for Internet companies as long as the interception techniques are "'good enough' solutions approved by the attorney general."

Another option that would be permitted, Bock said, is if companies "supply the government with proprietary information to decode information" obtained through a wiretap or other type of lawful interception, rather than "provide a complex system for converting the information into an industry standard format."

A representative for the FBI told CNET today that: "(There are) significant challenges posed to the FBI in the accomplishment of our diverse mission. These include those that result from the advent of rapidly changing technology. A growing gap exists between the statutory authority of law enforcement to intercept electronic communications pursuant to court order and our practical ability to intercept those communications. The FBI believes that if this gap continues to grow, there is a very real risk of the government 'going dark,' resulting in an increased risk to national security and public safety."

Next steps
The FBI's legislation, which has been approved by the Department of Justice, is one component of what the bureau has internally called the "National Electronic Surveillance Strategy." Documents obtained by the Electronic Frontier Foundation show that since 2006, Going Dark has been a worry inside the bureau, which employed 107 full-time equivalent people on the project as of 2009, commissioned a RAND study, and sought extensive technical input from the bureau's secretive Operational Technology Division in Quantico, Va. The division boasts of developing the "latest and greatest investigative technologies to catch terrorists and criminals."

But the White House, perhaps less inclined than the bureau to initiate what would likely be a bruising privacy battle, has not sent the FBI's CALEA amendments to Capitol Hill, even though they were expected last year. (A representative for Sen. Patrick Leahy, head of the Judiciary committee and original author of CALEA, said today that "we have not seen any proposals from the administration.")

Mueller said in December that the CALEA amendments will be "coordinated through the interagency process," meaning they would need to receive administration-wide approval.

Stewart Baker, a partner at Steptoe and Johnson who is the former assistant secretary for policy at Homeland Security, said the FBI has "faced difficulty getting its legislative proposals through an administration staffed in large part by people who lived through the CALEA and crypto fights of the Clinton administration, and who are jaundiced about law enforcement regulation of technology -- overly jaundiced, in my view."

On the other hand, as a senator in the 1990s, Vice President Joe Biden introduced a bill at the FBI's behest that echoes the bureau's proposal today. Biden's bill said companies should "ensure that communications systems permit the government to obtain the plain text contents of voice, data, and other communications when appropriately authorized by law." (Biden's legislation spurred the public release of PGP, one of the first easy-to-use encryption utilities.)

The Justice Department did not respond to a request for comment. An FCC representative referred questions to the Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau, which declined to comment.

From the FBI's perspective, expanding CALEA to cover VoIP, Web e-mail, and social networks isn't expanding wiretapping law: If a court order is required today, one will be required tomorrow as well. Rather, it's making sure that a wiretap is guaranteed to produce results.

But that nuanced argument could prove radioactive among an Internet community already skeptical of government efforts in the wake of protests over the Stop Online Piracy Act, or SOPA, in January, and the CISPA data-sharing bill last month. And even if startups or hobbyist projects are exempted if they stay below the user threshold, it's hardly clear how open-source or free software projects such as Linphone, KPhone, and Zfone -- or Nicholas Merrill's proposal for a privacy-protective Internet provider -- will comply.

The FBI's CALEA amendments could be particularly troublesome for Zfone. Phil Zimmermann, the creator of PGP who became a privacy icon two decades ago after being threatened with criminal prosecution, announced Zfone in 2005 as a way to protect the privacy of VoIP users. Zfone scrambles the entire conversation from end to end.

"I worry about the government mandating backdoors into these kinds of communications," says Jennifer Lynch, an attorney at the San Francisco-based Electronic Frontier Foundation, which has obtained documents from the FBI relating to its proposed expansion of CALEA.

As CNET was the first to report in 2003, representatives of the FBI's Electronic Surveillance Technology Section in Chantilly, Va., began quietly lobbying the FCC to force broadband providers to provide more-efficient, standardized surveillance facilities. The FCC approved that requirement a year later, sweeping in Internet phone companies that tie into the existing telecommunications system. It was upheld in 2006 by a federal appeals court.

But the FCC never granted the FBI's request to rewrite CALEA to cover instant messaging and VoIP programs that are not "managed"--meaning peer-to-peer programs like Apple's Facetime, iChat/AIM, Gmail's video chat, and Xbox Live's in-game chat that do not use the public telephone network.

If there is going to be a CALEA rewrite, "industry would like to see any new legislation include some protections against disclosure of any trade secrets or other confidential information that might be shared with law enforcement, so that they are not released, for example, during open court proceedings," says Roszel Thomsen, a partner at Thomsen and Burke who represents technology companies and is a member of an FBI study group. He suggests that such language would make it "somewhat easier" for both industry and the police to respond to new technologies.

But industry groups aren't necessarily going to roll over without a fight. TechAmerica, a trade association that includes representatives of HP, eBay, IBM, Qualcomm, and other tech companies on its board of directors, has been lobbying against a CALEA expansion. Such a law would "represent a sea change in government surveillance law, imposing significant compliance costs on both traditional (think local exchange carriers) and nontraditional (think social media) communications companies," TechAmerica said in e-mail today.

Ross Schulman, public policy and regulatory counsel at the Computer and Communications Industry Association, adds: "New methods of communication should not be subject to a government green light before they can be used."

However, I really despise and oppose discrimination against body modification. As long as my tattoos are not obscene, why should it matter if I have them? I would like to get some ink on my ?ditch? a.k.a the inside of my elbow, but am wary because of the profession I?ll be in eventually. I?m not worried about my piercings, I can take them out whenever it is appropriate. Please tell me I won?t actually be turned down for some art on my body? All I can ever find on Google is hearsay from people who seem to be about 13 years old. Does anyone have some concrete advice to ease my conservatism with tattoos?</p> <!-- div.question-body --> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> <h2><span id="flr-response-count">29</span> Answer<span id="flr-response-count-pluralize">s</span></h2> <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <img alt="Imadethisupwithnoforethought's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/Imadethisupwithnoforethought/raylon_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>I reported to a VP, and knew several persons at my level who had tattoos. No big deal to have them, it was always considered good judgment to have them in places that were concealable if a client were to be present. It is not that the firm cares, they just get nervous about putting you in front of a stuffy client if you can?t easily conceal it.</p> <img alt="anartist's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/anartist/andy125_thumb.png" width="40" /> <p>Probably depends on the job setting. Web design firms, internet start-ups, television, the entertainment fields probably more so than banks, law firms or real estate offices. Just as the racial and gender make-up of organizations seems to reflect the period in which the industry started and developed. More modern businesses from television to internet seem to have more diversity and more younger people.</p> <p>And, @desiree333, just as you can remove piercing jewelery, you can wear long-sleeved clothing if you feel it necessary to conceal them.</p> <p>On another note about going into a therapy field, ethically, if a practitioner cannot relate to a patient [such as someone who could not deal with aspects of your appearance] it is common that they will recommend them to someone else and choose to work with persons with which they can build a therapeutic rapport.</p> <p>When I was hospitalized recently for COPD, I did notice several nurses and technicians with tattoos and piercings. I would not have been surprised to see same on a young doctor.</p> <img alt="bookish1's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/bookish1/brianmolko_bw_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>Discrimination of this sort sucks and is pointless, but it?s still a reality we have to deal with. There?s no laws protecting against body art discrimination, so I think you would do best to assume it will be considered unprofessional <em>until</em> you get that job.</p> <p>I?m on the academic track, and I am already prepared to cover up my tattoos (forearm and bicep) whenever necessary. I have the suspicion that visible tattoos for women are slightly more commonly acceptable than for men, but this might just be from my very strange vantage point within the humanities.</p> <img alt="desiree333's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/desiree333/new_profile_hollister_010_thumb.JPG" width="40" /> <p>@anartist Yes, long-sleeved clothing is an option. I would actually be surprised if a patient chose to end sessions with me because of tattoos. That would be unfortunate. Either way, I will never be heavily modified on my arms/chest/neck. The majority of my tattoos will be on my legs/feet anyways.</p> <p>@bookish1 Wow! I did not know that there?s no law protecting people from that? How ridiculous. I would definitely cover-up during an interview and the first few months. I guess if I decided to expose them after awhile my employer wouldn?t really do anything about it?</p> <img alt="zenvelo's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/zenvelo/poke_thumb.JPG" width="40" /> <p>Yes, up to a point. In a lot of older line businesses, customer-facing positions don?t do well with visible tats or more than a modicum of ear piercings.</p> <p>It?s your choice to make permanent changes to your body, but expecting everyone else in the world to accept your decision is pretty dogmatic. Brandings okay? extreme body mods? genital bisection? One could argue well that such mods are not healthy and are done by people with way too many self loathing issues. And if I were a business owner, I should be able to not allow such statements be publicly nade by an employee representing my company.</p> <img alt="rojo's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/z20159213_l_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>I believe they are much more acceptable today than they were 20 years ago but most people, at least in the professional world, prefer them to be concealable in a business setting.<br />Chances are that if you have a Maori Facial Tattoo and are not living in New Zealand, you will face some descrimination when you apply for a professional position.</p> <p>Sorry,</p> <img alt="desiree333's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/desiree333/new_profile_hollister_010_thumb.JPG" width="40" /> <p>@zenvelo Ouch. Basing your discrimination on other people?s appearance does not sit well with me. What if someone you were interviewing had obvious breast augmentation? Would that be ?healthy? enough to represent your company?</p> <p>You don?t know a person just by looking at them. Their piercings and tattoos could have religious significance. Unless a body modification is obscene or offensive you shouldn?t be so quick to pass judgement.</p> <p>People don?t realize how expensive and time-consuming it is to design and get tattoos. The people that you look at and decide are ?self-loathing? or criminals are actually very intelligent human beings with thousands upon thousands of dollars invested on their body in the form of beautiful art.</p> <img alt="WestRiverrat's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/WestRiverrat/mekong_pit_viper_small_thumb.JPG" width="40" /> <p>I think it really depends on the job. I normally don?t have a problem, but when my waitress had an infected tongue piercing and was leaking puss that she wiped with her bare hand, I left the restaurant mid order and never went back.</p> <p>IMO It is a good idea to get them where they can be covered if necessary.</p> <img alt="bookish1's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/bookish1/brianmolko_bw_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>@desiree333 : I think that instead of attacking you, @zenvelo was just being realistic. We all have to live in this world, which is full of people who are not-us.</p> <p>I show my tattoos when I?m hanging out with friends, or when I?m going to class or teaching my own students, but I?d never go to an interview or important meeting without covering them up. I like to dress pretty fruity when I have a choice in the matter, but I dress more conservatively for initial meetings or interviews, because there?s still a lot of homophobia and femmephobia out there, and I don?t want people judging me before they get to know me. Just because you believe that people shouldn?t make hasty judgments about you does not mean that they will not.</p> <img alt="desiree333's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/desiree333/new_profile_hollister_010_thumb.JPG" width="40" /> <p>@bookish1 I completely agree with you. Yes, people should be realistic and cover-up during interviews and professional settings. I just get a little riled up when people are discriminatory, especially in such a harsh tone.</p> <p>I just wanted to comment on the ?genital bisection? thing: That is clearly a personal choice and I see no reason why/how an employer would know about that? Unless some ethical boundaries are being crossed.</p> <img alt="rojo's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/z20159213_l_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>@desiree333, @bookish1 Just trying to think of the situation where this question comes up?? ? Reflecting upon your desire to become a teacher, have you, or are you, considering a genital bisection??<br />I do not believe I have ever been asked that question at a job interview!.</p> <p> <span class="flr-response-moderation-reason flr-unmoderation">Response moderated (Spam)</span> </p> <img alt="livelaughlove21's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/livelaughlove21/156595_3251595937305_545327228_n_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>As a clinical psychologist, you?ll be working independently, yes? If so, it probably wouldn?t be a huge problem. I work as a bank teller, and visible tattoos are big no-no?s. Why? Doesn?t really matter, it?s just how it is. The real world kind of sucks like that.</p> <p>Body modification is a choice. If you choose to dye your hair neon pink, you?re going to be judged and probably denied certain jobs because many people would not take you seriously in a professional setting. Sorry, but that?s just how it is. It?s just as easy to choose to not have tattoos (or have them in easily concealable locations) as it is to choose to have them. The repercussions of the latter are something you?ll have to accept.</p> <p>On a side note, I had no idea what genital bisection was until I saw it here and googled it. I understand most tattoos and piercings, but that?s just?WHY?!</p> <img alt="Yeahright's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/Yeahright/Flu_Rose_thumb.png" width="40" /> <p>@desiree333 I think @zenvelo is being very realistic and he didn?t make the rules. As @livelaughlove21 says, the real world is what it is. Answers contrary to your opinion are not insults, they are just different views from yours and by asking the question one would think you?d presumably wanted to hear those as well so that you can have a more realistic picture of the whole issue.</p> <p>@nofurbelowsbatgirl <small>I like KVD better w/o tats. I just like a clean canvas.</small></p> <p>@livelaughlove21 <small>I too had to look it up. I still haven?t recovered from what I found.</small></p> <img alt="Adirondackwannabe's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/Adirondackwannabe/CCF11162010_00000_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>Oh good God, who dreamed up genital bisection? That?s wrong on so many levels.</p> <img alt="PaulSadieMartin's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/f464895_e07fb46481_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>No, tattoos, piercings, and other body modifications aren?t accepted in a traditional, conservative professional setting. I?m not arguing whether this is fair or unfair; I?m just stating the reality.</p> <p>If you can keep your ?body art? hidden, it?s nobody?s business except your own. But, if you go to a job interview with visible tattoos, or if you don?t remove the jewelry from facial piercings, smart money?s betting that you won?t get the job.</p> <p>I?ve been on the other side of this fence; i.e. with professional firms interviewing job candidates. I once saw a young woman get rejected?mocked, actually, as soon as she?d left the office?for having worn an ankle bracelet. If she weren?t capable of dressing appropriately for her interview, she couldn?t be trusted to wear the right ?uniform? for client meetings and on-site assignments.</p> <p>Things may be very different in more relaxed fields, such as graphic arts, entertainment, and software design. But, if you hit the pavement with your MBA degree, hoping to land a more conventional business position, your visible body modifications will considerably hinder your efforts.</p> <img alt="Yetanotheruser's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/Yetanotheruser/Shaman_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>I once worked in the customer service department of a high-visibility company (you probably saw the ads and infomercials on TV). Although this was about 5 years ago, and the published dress code <em>required</em> that tattoos be covered. I found it interesting, because we had no visual contact with customers or the public in general.</p> <img alt="KNOWITALL's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/KNOWITALL/Aprilpic_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>@PaulSadieMartin I?ll have to agree with you on this one, in my area it wouldn?t be acceptable in business settings.</p> <img alt="PaulSadieMartin's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/f464895_e07fb46481_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>A few thoughts about tattoos (from an old fogey who detests tattoos):</p> <p>(1) Fads come and go, but a tattoo is permanent. Long after tattoos have ceased being cool and popular, you?ll still have the same designs inked onto your body. If you want to express your independence and rebel against social norms, load your iPod with some loud, obsenity-riddled hip hop music. Someday, you?ll erase the music; the same can?t be said for a tattoo.</p> <p>(2) You?re a changing, growing, ever-developing person?each of us is?but a tattoo is permanent. What seems clever and attractive today might seem very silly to you in a few years.</p> <p>(3) Your body is also constantly changing. If you?d like to get a tattoo on your torso, how will that artwork look after several pregnancies and births (ladies) or when your tight abs turn into middle-age spread (gentlemen)?</p> <p>(4) Tattoos seem to be addictive. After someone get?s his/her first tattoo, that person?s likely to go back for another tattoo. And another. And another. What started off as a small, subtle adornment grows into a mess of ink.</p> <p>(5) The generations ahead of you (before tattoos were cool) and behind you (when tattoos are passe) will think that you?re trashy. It won?t matter if you?re not the least bit trashy; you?ll look the part. I?m a baby boomer, and I grew up seeing plenty of WWII veterans who?d been tattooed during the war. Almost all of them regretted what they?d done (the deeds of drunken sailors on shore leave); all of them looked low-bred and ignorant.</p> <p>Yeah, I know that I won?t convince anyone who?s in the market for a tattoo. But, I?ve given it my best effort!</p> <img alt="KNOWITALL's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/KNOWITALL/Aprilpic_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>@PaulSadieMartin I have one little dot, I won?t say what it signifies, but some Americans may know, but it?s biker gang related from my angry teen period. What it signifies to me now breaks my heart every time I think about it, I was so misguided and angry. But it is a good reminder of how we?re always evolving for sure.</p> <img alt="PaulSadieMartin's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/f464895_e07fb46481_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>@KNOWITALL Many Coptic Christians have three tiny dots tattooed on the inner (palm) side of their wrists. The three dots represent a cross. The tattoos are so small and subtle, they?re not really noticeable.</p> <img alt="KNOWITALL's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/KNOWITALL/Aprilpic_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>@PaulSadieMartin Not mine, mine is horrible and embarassing and I wish I?d been smarter in my young foolish rebellion. Now I must bear the cross of knowing what it means and that it?s permanent. It?s a great reminder though. <strong>sigh</strong></p> <img alt="Yeahright's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/Yeahright/Flu_Rose_thumb.png" width="40" /> <p>@KNOWITALL You can have it removed if you feel that bad about it.</p> <img alt="KNOWITALL's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/KNOWITALL/Aprilpic_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>@Yeahright Nah, I need the reminder that I?m not always right. :) Maybe it will keep me humble?lol</p> <img alt="Earthgirl's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/Earthgirl/girl_with_whispery_eyelashes_thumb.jpg" width="40" /> <p>The only thing I know is that I had a teacher in the fashion field, which is pretty tolerant of self expression, and she had tattoos on her back and arms. She expressed regret that she had had them done. Not because she felt that it had hurt her professionally, but just that it was no longer what she wanted to project, imagewise. I would say she was in her 40?s.</p> <img alt="desiree333's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/desiree333/new_profile_hollister_010_thumb.JPG" width="40" /> <p>@Yeahright You are right. I asked this question with the expectation of getting a variety of opinions. I?m sorry to @zenvelo for reacting in such a abrasive manner? I initially felt like there was a condescending tone in the comment, like he/she also judges people with body modifications personally as well as professionally. I suppose that I need to respect your right of opinion, even if I do not agree or appreciate how you speak of people with mods.</p> <img alt="desiree333's avatar" class="avatar" height="40" src="http://dkg88rp4qbe6q.cloudfront.net/avatars/desiree333/new_profile_hollister_010_thumb.JPG" width="40" /> <p>@PaulSadieMartin Tattoos have existed for thousands of years. They have been discovered on mummies dating back to c. 2000 B.C. I would hardly call them a dying fad. They should be treated as a legitimate form of self-expression. Even if someone got a tattoo that no longer reflects who they are today; they will likely look back at it with fondness for their youth. I don?t think most people regret their tattoos.</p> <p>As for stretching; if you take care of your tattoo it shouldn?t become skewed at all. Touch-ups are still an option just in case. Either way everyone looks saggy as sh*t when they?re old anyways. I?ll just look more cool.</p> <p>I don?t know if you?ve taken the time to look at images of tattoos, but they can be absolutely beautiful. It?s literally art that you wear, and uses flesh as the medium. If some drunken idiot gets a ludicrous tattoo and regrets it; that?s their problem. People make mistakes with many things in life.</p> <p>Anyways, It doesn?t matter to me if people don?t like them, to each his own. But I severely hope you don?t judge people for the way they choose to adorn their <strong>own</strong> bodies.</p> <p>@KNOWITALL I suppose it can also remind you of how much you?ve grown as a person?</p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> <h2 class="respond">Answer this question <img alt="sending..." class="indicator" id="talk_ajax_loader" src="http://dks1gowyscdyo.cloudfront.net/images/v2/ajax-loader.gif" /></h2> <p>This question is in the General Section.

width="300"/>Risk management. It?s a term that gets mentioned a lot here on YIQ. But what does it actually mean? Knowing what risk management is and how it works are two different things. There are a set of processes a risk management specialist must go through in order to establish the risk to a particular business. We?ll be outlining what risk management is and how risk is identified, for all those who?ve ever wondered: what is risk management?</p><h4><strong>Identification</strong></h4><p>One of the first things a risk management specialist does is to establish context. The risk for a construction site is going to be different than the risk in a classroom, for example. Once context is established the risk evaluation process can be planned and the types of risk inherent in the sector being evaluated can be narrowed down. Once context has been established, specific risks can then be identified. The risk specialist must identify where potential problems may begin. Once the source of a potential problem is know it can then be assessed and planned for.</p><h4><strong>Assessment</strong></h4><p>When risks have been established, each risk must be assessed based upon its likelihood and potential severity. Asset valuation is also an important part of the assessment process as it influences the priority of each risk. The probability of certain events can be difficult to measure, as can the exact value of assets. As a result, a lot of risk management is based on educated estimates and whatever statistics are available. At the end of the assessment process the priority and potential impact of each risk should be decided.</p><h4><strong>Plan </strong></h4><p>After the risks have been assessed and the possibility of them happening has been accepted, a plan must be made to avoid them. This may mean installing an extra fire extinguisher on every floor of a building or a company improving their anti-virus software. The risk management process won?t rid a business of all risk, but it well get it to a manageable level.</p><h4><strong>Management</strong></h4><p>Once risk has been established and a plan has been made, it must be managed. Risk for a business is constantly evolving so it needs to be monitored on a regular basis. A resolution cannot be applied and then forgotten about. New risks will emerge and they will require assessment and a prevention plan of their own.</p><p>Risk management is a circular process. Once risk has been identified, assessed and planned for, the process continues and begins over again. Being prepared for the hazards that can befall a business is of great importance. It would be a shame to put a lot of work into risk management for one year only to sit back and then watch it all fall apart in the next.</p><p><strong>Do you have a question about comprehensive risk insurance?
