A bit disappointed about that whole thing. But what about Uncle *June* shooting Tony! That was a shock.

gene markers

Hi I don't know where to post this. I have just spent several hours looking for web sites that list the many different tumor/gene/biomarkers for cancer screening, especially, but not limited to, breast cancer such as:


What are the 21 genes profiled on the Oncotype DX 21-gene panel?


What are the 76 genes profiled on the Mammaprint® 76-gene panel.


What are the 70 genes profiled on the Mammaprint® 70-gene panel?


I type for all cancer types and have found some helpful web sites explaining cancer screening and tumor markers but have not found any sites that simply just list them.


Thank you in advance for any suggestions.


Yes, the gene pool stops there.

and if you think about KISS Gene Simmons..SM

Kiss' lead singer Gene Simmons is about 67-68 and with that gross tongue......(have you seen him extend this tongue on any talk shows?)...and the fact they have to paint themselves in black and white and look utterly frightening........because they are virtually a no-talent hard-metal band and have to dress this way to sell any tickets so the public never *sees* just how old these dudes look!


GO MICK, forever young.....I thought he had the body (neck down) of a 30-year-old man last night.  Obviously, some don't REALLY check out BODY and BODY LANGUAGE.  And most people are not in as great a shape as MICK even 20+ years younger and then some.....or at his age of 62.


Today's 80 is yesterday's 60, today's 60 is yesterday's 40, today's 50 is yesterday's 30, and today's 40 is yesterday's 20+.....thank goodness I'm right in one of those categories and moving along with those new age values that have been online for over 10 years that I know of, with no plastic surgery because, you see, it's only and always been about attitude in this life.  Age is merely another number. 


Link for Oncotype gene panel
http://www.cap.org/apps/docs/cap_today/feature_stories/0204Gettingpersonal.html

Once you get there, click link for "21-gene panel," and you'll get a nice little table of all the genes! In case you can't get to that site, I'll e-mail the contents of the table to you.
WRONG! Gene Simmons was born in 1949. sm
And is way sexier than Mick ever thought about being.
yeah but just barely - sm
I used to do closer to 60K.

Lots of contributing factors to my declining earnings. VR and subsequent reduction in line rate for VR work, then there are also personal issues.

Time for me to get out.
Well I do. AHP barely scratches the
surface of what an MT needs to know, even to begin one specialty like radiology. I know because I took an AHP graduate on. She was an older lady with excellent English skills, but I was shocked at how little her schooling had covered of medical terminology. This was with me working in the same room. If she'd been trying to work from home, it would have been a huge waste of time for a QA department that couldn't give her the one-on-one attention she needed. I only needed temporary help, so I don't if she found employment after the 2 months or so she worked with me. MTs who didn't go to a good school and can succeed starting out these days are few and far between. Anybody trying it is asking for a long, unhappy road.
I worked as one, too. It paid my bills. Barely.
I hated that job because I could so totally empathize with the people I was collecting from. Plus, we had to be real hardnoses. The thing is that our "numbers" were tied to our bonuses. The more you collected, the more money you made. I lasted 9 months and received two raises and promotions to keep me there before finally finding another job. By that time, I had developed sleeping problems and an ulcer and started smoking again.
We never got short, barely was able to take 2 days off around Christmas.

I can barely type I'm laughing so hard
Yes, you are going to get slammed for saying some of that stuff, but it is Hilarry-ious!!! And, oh so true. Oh, my side hurts!
Barely working 20 hours a week...sm
I have worked for this company for over a year now.  I love the account.  I love the work.  I am used to it and don't want to think about going elsewhere but I am not making squat  I don't get paid by the hour I was just letting you know that is the amount of time I am getting to work due to the fact there is not enough work.  I have never been able to get full time work here but more that this.  I don't know whether to stick it out or look elsewhere.  I only have 1-1/2 years exp so I don't have a lot of options with less than 2 years exp.  I don't know what I should do.  I have asked about a secondary account, but they said they don't need help on any of their other accounts.  Anyone else in this boat?  What to do? 
Doctors patrolling themselves? What a joke! They barely have time to see ALL their patients....

Doctors today are totally incompetent for the most part.  YOU cannot worry about it when it comes to transcribing their gawd awful reports.  THAT is between the patient and the doc.  Just knock the report out as fast as you can and make sure it's accurate and then after that, forget about it. 


The docs make the big bucks - you don't!  Let THEM worry about things that will eventually catch up with them, one of which is called the Karma bug, and that little bug ALWAYS bites those who don't deal fairly right in the butt!  And big time, too!  


If you can show proof you did this work for them, they then have to show they paid it in order

I have IE set to display text size as largest, yet this font is so tiny I can barely see it.

love, love, love the show. hate american idol. this show is for real.
the only reason i entertained watching it was because of mark burnett and as usual he has such genious casting and editing. btw, don't know who anything about "metal" music but these performers make me like it. love marty and jd as performers. HATE JESSICA. susie is so nice and so emotional. it seems they all support each other and enjoy each others skills. regarding ty and bob marley, ty was excellent but he also lucked out on the song! bob marley was genious too and his music is very easy to listen to. i don't like 3/4 of what the others are given to sing but their performances make me love the music. dave navarro shines on this show, very gracious for the most part and letting the contestants down easy when they have to leave. he was great last night with brandon (?). sweet, sweet show. i am so impressed with everyone involved.
I think this goes to show you that SM

when a person goes to another place with the proper attitude (respecting the culture already there, appreciating it and being open to new experiences) you can have a wonderful time.


I think sometimes we in the U.S. have such a need to fashion everything into OUR way of doing things it ruins our ability to appreciate different countries/cultures.


show
I love the show. I think the people learning to dance are very brave. I love George H. too! Looks like a lot of hard work and that it is definitely outside their comfort zone. Good for them!
This just goes to show you that when the
first letters are right and the last couple are right, the mistake is easily missed. No spelling police here, right!?!
It won't show up. it says
1. How much money did you make?
2. Send it to us.


Yes, I know how to show myself as
offline on instant messenger. Sorry, I misunderstood the post. That doesn't make someone stupid because they don't know how to, though. I had never even used instant messenger until about 3-4 months ago. It is a learning process and no one should ever be called stupid because they have not yet learned something.
New to the show
Only recently started watching this show. What is wrong with his leg and why does he pop all those pills?
was that the show with the...
Dumb guy and his *polyfidelity* mumbojumbo??? I just saw bits and pieces of it, but boy if that was my husband...well let's just say he wouldn't be my husband...or anyone's husband...for long! Whatta jerk!
What a show!
That guy was the biggest peice of trash I ever saw. Sometimes it just blows my mind why people as stupid as him want to come on national TV. Does he not realize he is a complete and utter fool? His wife is not much better either. UGH - She is only staying for the children and that is a shame. Honestly, I didn't really see any love between them.
About the show
I think personally that Paula is a little flaky, nevertheless, I can say I didn't notice anything different from her last night. As stated below, Carrie started the show. It was just a regular show I thought. No exciting moments, other than that nasty Brenna going home. She was pouring that "get money" thing on really thick. Kinda came off pathetic IMO. Can't wait until next time!!
There are also MTs that don't have anything to show - sm
that feel they must tear down those that do, whether they ever show it off or not. Like people that feel they must scratch or ding new cars they encounter because they themselves don't have the money to buy such.

There are bad apples on either side of the coin. But regardless of whether we have reason to brag or not, it is best we conduct ourselves so that we care about others in the process.

It should show up now, sorry.
One can never have too many friends.........

:)
She is, it is her show, and...
it is meant to attract viewers.  Which is obviously does.  My son was on her show and she was VERY fair in her decision.  We were all very happy with the outcome, not because he won but because justice was served!! and on a TV show no less!!
She will just show up at the ER and noone will

Just goes to show you, all the

high-falootin' education in the world doesn't give you class.  LOL


This is my new favorite show...
.
LOVE THAT SHOW
I can't wait to see it every week, big fan of INXS, and the reason why the performances are so good is because these singers were professionals to start with, what a great change from the Teeny Boppers of American Idol.  Love Mig and JD.  The show is like watching a mini concenrt and when Jordis sang that Bowie song last week, I watched it at least 10 times more on line.  Glad to see someone else loves the show.  Sadly it has not gotten good ratings, so much for class acts getting their just deserves in this fickle society we live in.
Not in my office, but just goes to show you that nothing is

especially when there's only bad stuff to show
I noticed that Shepard Smith on Fox (not considered a liberal news outlet) was not especially impressed with the government response to the disaster. He was desperately begging for help for people stranded for days on a bridge.
His policies seem to show that,

Great show!

Jerry Rice is good but cannot match Drew.  What's up with the gangsta rapper?  He should have gone first. He doesn't really care.  I think he should have gone first.


Rock on Drew.


If you saw the first show, it was sorta sad...
she was talking about how she's tired of men just looking at her like a hunk of meat, and that she may have actually let herself "go" so that people might look at her as something more than a body.  She says at 45 she only wants to be at a more healthy weight.  She was actually really sweet.
Not lame. It's a fun show. nm

Some people just can't help but try to show - sm
off their "intelligence" whenever they get the chance!
Will show you my 1099's

I do make this much.  Even when married I always made more than my husband at a "real job" as he called it.  I did a little more myself this year to pay off those divorce legal bills but I did it.  On account I average 12,000 to 13,000 gross lines per month, another is 15,000 to 17,000 then I have two little accounts and one psych that I subcontract out which between them average another 8,000 lines.   The accounts that I personally type do take me about 22 to 24 hours per week and I put in 15 to 18 hours at a clinic doing EMR's as an employee.  I have a lot of write-off's and pay minimal taxes.l contributing about $700 - 850 a month to my retirement.  I have been doing these docs for 6 years.  Two are surgical oncologists and so I have a lot of consults/letters templates.   If a hernia patient came in I think I could do the consult just by looking at the chart.   I charge 11 cpl gross lines and have not raised my prices in two years but thinking about it.    I do put in 4 long days, 10 hours and then Friday is short  4 hours and Sunday is about 2.   But I have no problem showing my 1099's, it can be done you just have to find your niche.  And I know I am different than working for a national but 20 years ago I took the initiative to develop my own business, took a lot of blood, sweat and tears but the past 10 years I cannot complain.   My docs do treat me well as I have often stated.  But I just don't want anyone to think I have not paid my dues as I have and am truly honest in reporting my figures.  


Yea, I can't remember the show that I used
to see him on, he would get a copy of the newspaper a day in advance so he was able to prevent tragedies.  I thought he was hot then, but in this role he played a different character and I thought he was pretty hot too.  I'm sorry that they only gave him a cameo appearance. 
Good for you! Would she show up at
Some people just do not understand that every minute you are away from your desk is $ lost. I think the email idea was a good one. You did the right thing about your friend. You wouldn't have showed up at her job with your child begging for a babysitter, that would look ridiculous! Maybe she will see that in time!
Oh yes. This show is great.
I love Cesar.  He trips me out w/ all that dog stuff.  I even attempted some w/ our dog, though it didn't turn out to well, but then again Cesar was not here to show me correctly.  It is a good show.
I love that show! nm

He's still on here in NY, but his show is on FitTV. nm

IIt's a fun show. I printed out the
recipe for the Chipotle pasta that the judges wanted seconds on. I'll make it this weekend.
My dh lives for this show!!...sm
Coffee thing was very cool.  Had cylinder type holder for separate filters.  He explained it like a gun cylinder that holds individual bullets.  Anyway, he put filters in each separate cylinder and could make individual cups of coffee, soup, tea, etc. by rotating to the right cylinder and adding water. 
I would show them the basics...
as far as headings, which abbreviations not to use, bold or no bold, caps or no caps, etc., and I might as go as far as making a list of the account specifics or print up 1 report outlining the headings, caps, bold, etc. and basically, I would have them transcribe what they hear and set up by following the account specifics and make their own templates. I wouldn't have it to where they could get on the computer and copy and paste a template. I would print one report on paper and save all my files in a folder and set a password so no one can open it. Sounds mean... not really to them maybe..., but you had to start from scratch so that is the only way to learn is to start from scratch and there are no free rides anymore. So they could either start from scratch following the account specifics and transcribe their own templates like you did or they can just get over it!! :)
Love the show too..
Dennie is sooo cute and sweet with Izzie....can't imagine how she is going to get out of this one though.....  What a mess!   I also love Survivor and was bouncing back and forth between the 2. 
I LOVE that show!

I also like Desperate Housewives and was only able to catch the last 10 minutes of it last night.  So I went to ABC's website and was able to watch the whole episode for free.  I wish they would do that for Grey's Anatomy, too.... and Boston Legal.......LOL.


Wild horses (or cowboys) ain't gonna keep me from Grey's tonight, though.


I don't watch the show, but I saw it on CNN
Sometimes I "watch" TV while I work (sound down). I happened to glance at the TV when they were replaying that clip. That kid's expression was totally awesome... better than Christmas morning!
Tonight show
I think Taylor is going to be on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno tonight.  I just LOVE him!
