Online privacy lessons from the recent Instagram debacle - John Sileo
Whenever you buy a car or a house, there's always fine print ? tiny lettering that people rarely read but causes many a headache. After all, the devil is in the details.
It's the buyers' responsibility to read the fine print and the terms and conditions, and make sure they are not being taken advantage of. It's okay to ask for help if the language is confusing. Most legal documents and service agreements use phrasing that would tie the average person's tongue in knots. So, seeking advice is actually ? well, advisable.
The same applies to users of social media platforms. Take a look at the recent debacle with Instagram. The company that developed the popular photo-sharing service purchased by Facebook earlier this year ? for a paltry $1 billion ? recently rolled out a revised set of terms and conditions. The wording was so confusing that many legal experts cited by the tech media had difficulty sifting through it all, let alone the average user.
At several points throughout the document, it appeared that Instagram was saying it had ownership rights over your photos and that it could and would sell them for advertising purposes at will. Following the near instantaneous backlash that swung like a pendulum over the Web, Instagram has since clarified its position in an official blog post.
Company co-founder Kevin Systrom apologized for the confusion and said that some parts of the new conditions would be completely removed while others would be clarified to show that users own their own photos and Instagram will not sell them.
However, the lesson to be learned here is that social media sites amend their terms and conditions all the time. And users, often unknowingly, approve those revisions just by logging back into the social media site. People rarely read the updated terms, as they can be long, confusing documents that are easily ignored, leading to far worse privacy exposure than what Instagram is now apologizing for.
These days, online privacy only exists for those who proactively look to safeguard it. Your property, your reputation, your entire life can be made vulnerable if you don't take online privacy protection seriously.

ATLANTA (AP) ? Christmas shoppers thronged malls and pounced on discounts but apparently spent less this year, their spirits dampened by concerns about the economy and the aftermath of shootings and storms.
Talk about more than just the usual job worries to cloud the mood: Confidence among U.S. consumers dipped to its lowest point in December since July amid rising economic worries, according to a monthly index released Friday.
Marshal Cohen, chief research analyst at NPD Inc., a market research firm with a network of analysts at shopping centers nationwide, estimates customer traffic over the weekend was in line with the same time a year ago, but that shoppers seem to be spending less.
"There was this absence of joy for the holiday," Cohen said. "There was no Christmas spirit. There have been just too many distractions."
Shoppers are increasingly worried about the "fiscal cliff" deadline ? the possibility that a stalemate between Congress and the White House over the U.S. budget could trigger a series of tax increases and spending cuts starting Jan. 1
The recent Newtown, Conn., school shooting also dampened shoppers' spirits atop the fall's retail woes after Superstorm Sandy's passage up the East Coast.
The Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, which account for 24 percent of retail sales nationwide, were tripped up by Sandy when the enormous storm clobbered the region in late October, disrupting businesses and households for weeks.
All that spelled glum news for retailers, which can make up to 40 percent of annual sales during November and December. They were counting on the last weekend before Christmas to make up for lost dollars earlier in the season.
The Saturday before Christmas was expected to be the second biggest sales day behind the Friday after Thanksgiving.
After a strong Black Friday weekend, the four-day weekend that starts on Thanksgiving, when sales rose 2.7 percent, the lull that usually follows has been even more pronounced. Sales fell 4.3 percent for the week ended Dec. 15, according to the latest figures from ShopperTrak, which counts foot traffic and its own proprietary sales numbers from 40,000 retail outlets across the country. On Wednesday, ShopperTrak cut its forecast for holiday spending down to 2.5 percent growth to $257.7 billion, from prior expectations of a 3.3 percent rise.
Online, sales rose just 8.4 percent to $48 billion from Oct. 28 through Saturday, according to a measure by MasterCard Advisors' SpendingPulse. That is below the online sales growth of between 15 to 17 percent seen in the prior 18-month period, according to the data service, which tracks all spending across all forms of payment, including cash.
At the malls, overall promotions were up 2 to 3 percent from last year heading into the pre-Christmas weekend, after being down 5 percent earlier in the season, according to BMO Capital Markets sales rack index, which tracks the depth and breadth of discounts.
Attempting to drum up enthusiasm, retailers have expanded hours and stepped up discounts.
At The Garden State Plaza, teen retailer Aeropostale discounted all clothing and accessories by 60 percent. Charles David, Cachet and AnnTaylor had cut prices by 50 percent of all merchandise. At AnnTaylor, racks of discounted clothes had been marked down by an additional 25 percent. One dress, originally priced at $118, was marked down to $49 but with the additional 25 percent, it cost $21.30.
But the deals at the mall failed to impress Wendy McCloskey, 35, of Lebanon, Ind., who started her holiday shopping Sunday at the Castleton Square Mall in Indianapolis. A snow storm that blustered through the Midwest this week delayed her shopping plans, and a busy schedule with her children also got in the way.
"I was so surprised. I figured they'd have better deals," she said.
And at The Garden State Plaza in Paramus, N.J., Linda Fitzgerald said she didn't feel like shopping this season, facing a sister's cancer diagnosis atop worries about the economy and the Connecticut shooting.
"It's so hard to put yourself in the mood," said Linda Fitzgerald, a 51-year-old nurse from Yonkers who went out weekend shopping with her 17-month-old granddaughter in tow.

Super Foods for Sinusitis Relief | Natural Holistic Health Blog
Including certain super foods in your diet can help prevent and treat sinusitis
Sinusitis simply means inflammation or swelling of the sinuses, but this gives little indication of the misery and pain this condition can cause.
Ongoing sinusitis, sinusitis that continues for at least 3 weeks, impacts an estimated 32 million individuals in the United States alone.
As further evidence that sinusitis is a prevalent and expensive health condition, it is a staggering fact that people in the US shell out millions of dollars each year for medicines which claim to offer relief from their sinusitis symptoms.
What are the Symptoms of Sinusitis?
Signs and symptoms of sinusitis may include a fever, weakness and fatigue, a cough which may be more extreme at night, and a runny, drippy nose or nasal blockage.
In addition, drainage of mucus from the sinuses down the back of the throat (postnasal drip) can trigger a sore throat.
And yet, by including a few of the super foods from various vitamin groups, we can reduce our odds of becoming stricken with this painful and aggravating malady.
Super Foods for Sinusitis
Citrus fruits, tomatoes, cauliflower, red berries,? potatoes, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, red and green bell peppers, cabbage, and spinach are all high quality dietary sources of vitamin C, which can help promote a healthier and stronger immune system.
The B-complex vitamins are in fact a group of eight vitamins which include thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3) and folic acid (B9), and are key for a well-balanced nervous system which functions properly, processing carbs for energy, and the production of red blood cells.
Organ meats, whole grain cereals, beans, oatmeal, potatoes, bananas, salmon,? and spinach are only a very few of the numerous food members of the vitamin B group with higher than average levels of this group of nutrients.
Vegetable oils, green leafy vegetables, nuts, and fortified cereals are standard food sources of vitamin E, an antioxidant which serves to safeguard your cells from the effects of free radicals. Free radicals are potentially harmful by-products of energy metabolism.
Free radicals can harm cells and may contribute to the development of both cardiovascular disease and cancer. Vitamin E has also been discovered to play a favorable part in immune function.
What Else Can You Do to Help Prevent & Treat Sinusitis?
Breathing in the steam from a vaporizer or a hot cup of water can soothe swollen and irritated sinus cavities. Using essential oils in the steam treatment including Eucalyptus, Lavender, Thyme, Rosemary or Ravensara can add to the positive benefit of this therapy.
An additional therapy is the use of a saline nasal spray, which can be bought at your local pharmacy and in many grocery stores. A hot water bottle; hot, wet compresses; or an electric heating pad applied over the painful sinus area also can be soothing.
An individual vulnerable to sinus problems, particularly one who also suffers from allergies, should stay away from cigarette or cigar smoke and other air pollutants. Inflammatory reaction in the nose caused by allergies predisposes a person to a powerful reaction to all irritants. Consuming alcohol also results in swelling of the nasal-sinus membranes. Try also to avoid dairy products, as they encourage your body to create more mucus.
Sinus Soothe is a safe, non-addictive, FDA-registered natural remedy containing 100% homeopathic ingredients selected to relieve sinusitis symptoms, including sinus congestion, inflammation and pain. Sinus Soothe may be taken at the first sign of sinusitis, as it works quickly to reduce sinus pressure, excess mucus and open nasal passages, as well as relieve sinus pressure headaches.
This remedy contains a selection of homeopathic ingredients known to support overall sinus health, without side effects. Sinus Soothe is taken internally and presented in a convenient, concentrated tincture formula. It is easy to ingest and hassle?free with no artificial colors or preservatives. It is safe for all ages, including pregnant women or those who may be breastfeeding.

Understanding cell organization to tackle cancer
Dec. 23, 2012 ? Scientists at The University of Manchester have identified how cells know which way up they need to be. The discovery could help in the fight against cancer because in the early stages of the disease the cells become disorganised.
Professor Charles Streuli and Dr Nasreen Akhtar of the Wellcome Trust Centre for Cell-Matrix Research have conducted new research that leads to a better understanding of cell polarity. Properly organised tissues are vital to maintaining functional organs and a healthy body. Part of being organised includes cells being in the correct position within the tissue and the right way up, because the top and bottom of cells have different functions.
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a layer of protein rich material that surrounds tissues and helps to design and shape all of our organs. Previous studies have demonstrated that the ECM sticks to the cells and guides them into the right position. What hadn't been identified is how the ECM communicates that message.
To understand this better Professor Streuli and Dr Akhtar looked at epithelial cells, which make up the majority of tissues within the body. They studied epithelial cells of the breast, which make milk. These cells also form the linings of mammary ducts to carry milk towards the nipple. It's vital that these cells are organised correctly in order to make milk accessible for the baby. One of the first signs of cancer is that the epithelial cells become disorganised.
Breast epithelial cells connect to the ECM through receptors called integrins. In experiments using mice Professor Streuli and Dr Akhtar removed one of the genes responsible for integrins. They found that without that gene, the cells were both the wrong way round and in the wrong place so the breast tissue became disorganised. They then tried removing integrins in cultured cells from the breast, which produced the same effect of disorder.
Further study revealed that within the cell the integrin receptors connect to the protein ILK. This protein then links to microtubules, a network that forms the transport machinery of the cell. Integrins and microtubules ensure that inside the cell the correct proteins are transported to the top and the bottom of the cell.
The findings have been published in the journal Nature Cell Biology. Commenting on the research Professor Streuli says: "What we identified is a vital interplay between the transport machinery and the integrin receptors which makes sure that proteins are transported to the correct area of the cell. Without this interplay the proteins end up in the wrong place, and this can lead to cells becoming disorganised."
He continues: "What's really interesting is that when we compared breast tissue from our experiments with tissues of patients with early forms of breast cancer, they looked very similar. The cells were upside down and disorganised so they couldn't carry out their functions. We hope that our work to better understand cell polarity could ultimately lead to better diagnosis for cancer patients."
Whilst Professor Streuli and Dr Akhtar only looked at epithelial cells within the breast, they are confident their findings will translate to other organs. The accuracy of their experiments was greatly increased through the use of special 3D cultures to grow the cells, where they form tiny organs that look remarkably similar to real breast tissue.
Dr Akhtar explains: "Growing the breast cells so that they can form 3D structures rather than on hard petri dishes means they develop in a way that is much more akin to how they grow in the body. We were one of the first groups in the UK to be using this technology and we've been really pleased with the results."
Dr Akhtar has been working on this research for five years. She says: "I've been touched by cancer in my own family so I'm really passionate about understanding this devastating disease better. Over 90% of cancers come from epithelial cells, which is why we chose to study them. It's fundamental to understand how healthy cells work properly in order to fully appreciate why they go wrong when cancer develops, and how best to combat the disease."
The next stage of the research will be to investigate the link between altered levels of integrin and cancer, to determine whether this causes the disorganised nature of cells seen in the early stages of the disease.

Careful, schmareful. A loss, coulda woulda shoulda, but who cares? It's what happens in the next couple-three weeks that will likely define this season.Missouri is really good where we are weak. Not unexpected. Now you have to see how we get off the mat.

Fought hard, but it was a mismatch up front. Good effort from Nnanna.Out-muscled and the shots weren't falling, but we still had a chance. Disappointing loss, but not entirely discouraging, either.

We were dominated on the glasscouldnt hit a 3
shot poorly from the field
they had a good game in those areas.
it couldn't of been a worse case scenario.
does every team in the country do PED's, except us?
If that's as bad as it gets... things are looking up
how were we even in this game.

We didn't shoot well against a good team, and we lost. Not much more to it than that. Apparently people are surprised that our bigs got worked over by bigger and stronger players.

They should count Pressey's misses as assists, I swear the Mizzou marching orders were just to put it up and let their bigs get the put backs.

Gotta work on rebounding.....A LOT. Egwu played his guts out tonight I think considering what he was up against. Not sure why we were doing so much hedging on the high picks though. It killed us against Pressey.. Paul needs to let the game come to him when he isnt hitting his shot and I thought Groce should of played some of our bench guys a bit more like Langford and Henry so they could bang some. The refs let them play and that was not in our favor. Mizzou got away with quite a few over the backs but our guys have got to learn how to box their man out instead of standing in their area trying to out jump someone....The crap doesnt work against a good rebounding team like Mizzou. On to Auburn..

That's right. I forgot about that
"Not even close"
OTOH. Someday, we'll have bigs too.
Combine what we have with some bigs who bite back and we're a top 5 team

Nice effort from Bertrand, maybe Egwu has finally figured out how to get a rebound. That would be a big help going forward. Needed more out of McLaurin. DJ isn't being consistent with his form on the jumper, needs to get that straightened out. We didn't play Pressey well at all, but he's a tough match for just about anybody. Missouri is a really good team.

He rolled an ankle in the first half and was fighting it the rest of the game. The announcers never once commented on it.

Hey, we shot the ball poorly. What else is there to say really? We are for real and were right there in that game even though we got killed on the glass and shot so poorly. We are competitive and the guys fight, regardless of the competition. If a loss can ever be encouraging, that was an encouraging loss.

Meh. Whatever. Go beat Auburn and Purdue and then get ready for OSU.The only concerning part is the rebounding margin, however, despite being killed on the boards, we had a chance to win the game at the end.
One more thing, OSU and MSU aren't top 10 teams and Michigan is as dependent on the 3 as we are. My point is the top of the conference isn't going to run away from this team. I'm going on record with an 11-7 and possibly 12-6 B1G campaign.

Pressey was 3-19 from the field with 11 assists, I'm betting they had put-back layups or dunks on at least 12 of those misses so as far as I'm concerned Pressey had 23 assists. We can't let that happen.
