Erie, Pennsylvania – The award-winning team at Lyons Den Productions are excited to announce their next feature film will be “Unearth”, a uniquely American horror story about the terrifying repercussions sown by shortsighted decisions, and what our children reap from our actions. This announcement comes with the launch of a Kickstarter campaign tomorrow, Tuesday October 6^th, to raise the necessary funding for the project expected to go into production next year in northwestern Pennsylvania. 

Equal parts docu-drama and eco-horror, “Unearth” was inspired by increasing environmental concerns ripped from today’s headlines. The film’s writer and director, John C. Lyons, said of the project “In light of new evidence uncovered by journalists like Public Herald regarding years of cover-up by state regulators regarding water contamination caused by the Marcellus shale industry, I think now more than ever it is time for a film like “Unearth”.

Jennifer Hooper, star of feature films “Schism” and “There Are No Goodbyes”, and an award-winning filmmaker herself, has snagged one of the film’s lead roles as has Ruth Thoma Andrews, a stage and screen veteran who’s appeared in over 50 plays in the past 30 years. Several lead roles have yet to be cast. Scripts are being sent to actors and agents and the filmmakers hope to hold auditions, both locally and online.  

“Monster” Mark Kosobucki, a graduate of the Douglas Education Center for Special Makeup FX and Sculpting will serve as the film’s Special FX Coordinator and Graphic Designer. Andy Flatley, who has scored each of Lyons Den Productions’ films, will return to paint music to image.

Horror film fanatics and eco-conscious citizens alike can help make the film a reality by contributing to the project’s Kickstarter campaign. The campaign, which rewards backers with everything from DVDs and original Artwork to a chance to be cast in the film and attend it’s premiere. Lyons Den Productions has been working closely with Mercyhurst University’s Quickstarter program to develop and build the campaign. Unearth’s Kickstarter campaign launches Tuesday October 6^th at 10:00 a.m.

Kikerpill Leger knows that in order for there to be a change, more individuals must get involved.

Sandy Kikerpill Leger is one of the co-founders of the Abolish Slavery Coalition. In starting this organization, she established the standard for helping others by being a humanitarian through providing resources for those victims of slavery that the Abolish Slavery Coalition saved. She has helped countless individuals rehabilitate their lives after they endured the grips of human trafficking domestically and overseas in places like Cambodia. For years she brought aid to survivors such as nourishment, water, medical aid, education, and vocational training. Devoted to her work, she even personally provided these resources to the survivors that required them. She also brought essential resources to internally displaced peoples in Burma, Laos, and Thailand.

In an interview with the Abolish Slavery Coalition, she clarifies common misconceptions about modern day human trafficking. She also explains the need for awareness of this problem. The reality is that human trafficking is still alive and prevalent, though it is not visible in the United States. Just because it is so unknown in the United States does not mean that we as humans should be apathetic to the plight of the victims of human trafficking. Kikerpill Leger knows that in order for there to be a change, more individuals must get involved and take a stand against such unethical practices such as slavery.

Even with Kikerpill Leger’s busy life that usually involves real estate and financial advisement, Kikerpill Leger has still found time to devote to helping others. By creating the Abolish Slavery Coalition, she has created a forum for the discussion, awareness, and forward-moving action against human trafficking and slavery. This disgusting practice is still happening in the modern world and Kikerpill Leger is a trustworthy individual that has spent years of her life dedicated to putting an end to it.

Kikerpill Leger was a supporter of Proposition 35, a proposition in which more harsh laws against human traffickers are put into place and individuals who are caught participating in enforcing sexual slavery and convicted must register as sex offenders. This proposition is in the state of California, and shows that due to Kikerpill Leger’s awareness of this global problem, individuals are beginning to take action. It is called the Californians Against Sexual Exploitation Act, or CASE, and is the most recent piece of legislation against sexual slavery brought to the forefront. 

Kikerpill Leger knows that the change in these human rights issues needs to begin in schools. In her interview with the Abolish Slavery Coalition, she speaks about educating individuals as early as junior high about the reality of sex, rather than allowing them to be distracted by the glamorization of the sex industry as they age. Kikerpill Leger knows that the change must start with each individual, and with all of humanity binding together, individuals have the power to end such atrocities.

08 Oct, 2015 – After helping 100s of British buyers purchase holiday homes in one of the most popular holiday destinations in the world, Go Investment have extended the help to buy scheme until December 2015.

Go Investments help-to-buy scheme was only temporarily to give first time buyers a chance to purchase a dream holiday home in the all year sunshine giving anybody a help to get on the overseas property ladder.

The scheme, which was launched by the Go Investment late 2014, allows future homebuyers with deposits from just £2,316 of a property’s price to buy a new-build apartment with sea views with the help of an interest free developers guaranteed payment plan.

“But while 100s of first-time buyers have benefited,” said Ben Radcliffe, sales advisor at Go Investment, “the impact on the prices in the development will rise very soon.”

“We wanted to give everybody a great opportunity to buy a holiday home as most people can’t afford the luxury or get mortgages, even better it’s in a country 360 days a year sunshine in a fantastic holiday resort whether your single on low income or a family with a lot of outgoings,” he said.

However, he said most owners will only be using their apartments two to twelve weeks a year due to work commitments in the UK but can easily rent them out the rest of the year giving them an extra income.

“The advantages of taking this chance is not only getting on the property ladder but the weather in Egypt is all year round sunshine to get away from the terrible weather here in the UK and have the sun on tap whenever you want it plus the no stamp duty tax in Egypt under £50,000 when the average price of apartments is only £25,000 has made a big impact in sales for investors,” he said.

Furthermore, Hurghada now named ‘Queen and pearl of tourist cities’ This is now named by the Arab Center for Media tourism, having won Best Arab tourist destination for 2015, according to a poll conducted by the Center among a number of other tourist cities.

Radcliffe added “Due to the tourism now in Hurghada hitting 97% occupancies in hotels during the school holidays, not only are our clients purchasing as a little getaway holiday home but a fantastic investment opportunity due to the amount of potential rental income and capital growth in the area.”

UK master agents Go Investment are now taking reservations on the Help-to-buy scheme until December 2015.

The helpful tips that Leger teaches doctors can turn any failing practice into a money-making practice.

These remedies for pain are better and less risky than the narcotic solutions that most doctors use in response to chronic pain. The problem with using narcotics for pain is that it often leads to dependence, which leads to tolerance and, at last, addiction among other side effects. The non-narcotic solutions for pain that Leger proposes are safer, and can be used long-term.

Leger also specializes in revenue enhancement for doctors. He does this by displaying to them how to bring their revenue up using easy to understand products and strategies. He also knows how to increase a practice’s income. The helpful tips that Leger teaches doctors can turn any failing practice into a money-making practice.

Leger is knowledgeable when it comes to products that benefit doctors’ practices. Whether it is going to benefit their patients in the long-run, or make their practice thrive financially, Leger is trustworthy and possesses a conservative view. Based in Orange County, CA, Leger has been in this business for over a year and already has a good reputation following him for his work with Products For Doctors.

Leger’s involvement with Products For Doctors has improved patient’s care and helped doctors be able to increase their revenue while doing so. With these couple of factors, doctors know that they can trust Leger to help them create more money for their business, while providing high quality services for their patients.

Some of the products that Leger supports that is offered by Products For Doctors is P-Stim and ANSiscope. The ANSiscope allows doctors to determine the amount of pain their patient is in, according to the ratio of their Sympathetic Nervous System and Parasympathetic Nervous System. The P-Stim is a device in which the Vagus nerve is stimulated in order regulate the functioning of the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic systems. The benefit of this treatment is that it does not have the negative side effects that NSAIDs and opiates do.

These are just two of the products that Leger supports that are from Products For Doctors. What is apparent is that the patient’s health is kept in mind during the utilization of these products because using them eliminates so much of the risk that is usually associated with pain management. Leger knows that a patient’s health is a doctor’s top priority, and with this in mind, any doctor should feel comfortable trusting Leger.

With more forward thinking individuals who are trying to make a difference in the world, the world would be a safer, more harmonious place.

As executive director and co-founder of the Abolish Slavery Coalition, Richard Leger worked as a humanitarian for the freedom of enslaved individuals across the world. Being a human rights activist is something he is passionate about and is most important to Leger. Feeling vehemently about liberating enslaved people, and doing work toward abolishing sexual slavery, Leger started the Abolish Slavery Coalition in 2009. This remarkable nonprofit organization has since helped countless individuals rehabilitate their lives after years of being enslaved by human traffickers.

For most individuals, it comes as a surprise that there is even a need for others in the world like Leger. Most individuals believe that slavery ended with the civil war; however, it is Leger’s hope that his work with the Abolish Slavery Coalition will bring to light the reality that slavery is a very real issue that is still alive in the modern world. Slavery is not only existing in just third-world countries; but there is also slavery in places as close to home as North America.

The need for individuals like Leger becomes apparent when one does some research into slavery in the modern world. With more forward thinking individuals who are trying to make a difference in the world, the world would be a safer, more harmonious place. In order for a change to been seen in the world, we all must follow Leger’s example and take a stand against a wrongdoing that is happening.

Slavery does not just exist in small pockets of the world; it is actually on the rise. Human trafficking is crossing borders from Tijuana, Mexico and into California. The need for organizations like the Abolish Slavery Coalition is becoming increasingly prevalent. With the increase in human trafficking in the southern area of California, more people being aware of this issue is required. Leger knows this, and created the Abolish Slavery Coalition to bring to light, and aid in helping to change the lives of those who are victims of slavery.

Leger co-founded the Abolish Slavery Coalition and since then, it has made strides in helping to establish awareness and renew the lives of those affected by human trafficking. The city of Chico’s mayor even recognized the organization, and on December 30^th, 2001 President Obama declared January to be “National Slavery and Human Trafficking Month.” With all the awareness Leger accomplished spreading, it is apparent he is making his effect on the world.

12 Oct, 2015 – Hanan Polansky and Adrian Javaherian from The Center for the Biology of Chronic Disease (CBCD) published a new paper in the peer reviewed medical journal, Frontiers in Cellular and Infection in Microbiology. The journal has a high impact factor of 4. The paper can be found Pubmed.com

The Polansky and Javaherian paper comments on another article, which deals with breast cancer and a loss of function in a specific gene. The authors of the other article wrote that “A significant event leading to the development of breast cancer is loss of BRCA1 function.” (1) Polansky and Javaherian proposed a second biological mechanism through which stress and the presence of latent viruses cause a deficiency in the GABP transcription factor and breast cancer. This second mechanism is based on the theory of “Microcompetition.” (1) The paper was published on September 24, 2015.

Microcompetition was first proposed in Dr. Hanan Polansky’s highly acclaimed “Purple” book, entitled Microcompetition with Foreign DNA and the Origin of Chronic Disease. In this book, he explains how foreign DNA fragments can cause many major diseases. The book has been read by more than 5,000 scientists around the world, and has been reviewed in more than 20 leading scientific journals.

Those who wish to read Dr. Polansky’s book can do so by downloading it for free here:

http://www.cbcd.net/Book.php

How do latent viruses cause microcompetition and breast cancer?

According to Dr. Hanan Polansky’s theory, these viruses are genetic parasites. In high concentrations, they microcompete with the human genes, “starve” these genes, and force them to behave as if they’ve been mutated, that is, to behave as if they are broken.

The Theory of Microcompetition is far-reaching. It applies to many viruses, many genes, and many diseases. For example, the authors of the commentary wrote that “The term “Microcompetition” describes the relationship between viral and cellular regulatory elements. It is interesting that many common viruses, which establish a latent infection, have a strong N-box in their promoters/enhancers. These viruses include the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV), Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV), Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), and the Human Papillomavirus (HPV). In fact, the CMV has the strongest promoter/enhancer known to science.” (1)

Importantly, the authors stressed that “Most individuals harbor a latent viral infection exposing them to transcription factor deficiency. Therefore, these individuals are at risk of diseases that can be triggered by such deficiency, including cancer.” (1)

Entrepreneurs and their startups are what keep the world’s economy ticking and the markets innovating, but who’s leading the entrepreneurial race in 2015 and what does the future look like? A new infographic from Coupofy.com crunches the data with some very interesting results.

While the capitalist empire of the United States still fosters the highest number of startups in the world (4.8 million), emerging economies are seeing huge growth with the likes of India (2.0 M) and Brazil (584,000) building a foundation that will last for decades to come.

Some countries you might assume are at the top of the pack, like tech savvy Japan, are actually lagging behind their neighbours Thailand and Vietnam when you factor in the number of startups per capita. And some of the strongest economies in Europe seem to have left the innovation behind, as there are as many startups in Nigeria as in Germany, and Indonesia has twice the amount as Italy.

East African nation Uganda, which has a long history of war and corruption, has managed to turn the corner to become the most entrepreneurial country per capita in the world. Everyone seems to be starting a business there.

Where the US continues to dominate is with the internet and apps. Remember when Facebook acquired WhatsApp for $19 billion?

7 of the top 10 current highest valued startup companies having been hatched on US soil, including Uber, Snapchat and Dropbox. Out of the three Uber has perhaps changed the game the most, allowing virtually anybody with a vehicle to become an efficient taxi service.

Yet if you thought Uber was innovative, what about “Rent The Chicken” that delivers a coop of chickens to your house so you can enjoy fresh eggs for as long as you choose? Sometimes it’s the wacky ideas that have the most success. Other times it’s simply about practicality and solving a problem. Some of the Angel List trending startups for September 2015 include DoorDash (an on-demand local delivery service), BuildZoom (a local online market place for construction contractors), and Kinetic (maker of wearable devices that help keep industrial workers safe).

For more interesting data about the growth in startups, who is investing in them, and how they are innovating, check out the 27 Striking Facts Most People Don’t Know About Startups- infographic by Coupofy.

NEW YORK, NY – 12 Oct, 2015 – The ExoGlove provides Patients requiring physical or occupational hand rehabilitation a wearable solution that can help with daily activities without constraining the natural movements of joints.

“The soft actuators embedded onto the ExoGlove provide a very natural, assisted hand movement,” says Dr. Raye Yeow, who co-created the ExoGlove at the National University of Singapore with Mr. Yap Hongkai. “It provides potentially safer human-robot interactions, as compared to traditional ‘hard’ actuators.”

For many years, patients suffering from neurodegenerative diseases have had secondary hand impairments as a result of their disease. These diseases range from Parkinson’s disease, Muscular Dystrophy, to those who have suffered from a stroke or traumatic brain injury. While there are several other gloves on the market, the ExoGlove is completely unique and sets itself apart.

The flexible, compliant, and lightweight ExoGlove is made entirely of soft fabric and elastomeric materials, thereby providing a compatible robotic device that can be used under fMRI to study the effect of robot-assisted therapy on brain stimulation. The glove’s overall structure consists of Velcro hook straps. It also contains four, soft actuators that include attached Velcro loop straps that correspond to the index, middle, ring, and small fingers. The actuators can be easily attached to the glove via the Velcro straps.

The ExoGlove works by being connected to a control system that is comprised of a miniature diaphragm pump, solenoid valves, and a battery, which modulates the pneumatic pressure input into the soft actuators. The glove’s soft actuators are able to generate well-distributed pressure on the fingers, which minimize the localized pressure points that could otherwise cause joint hyperextension and subluxation.

Dr. Yeow says, “We are now opening the ExoGlove to clinical trials and hope therapists will consider utilizing our product. Our hope is that this glove will change lives and make living with neurodegenerative disorders easier, safer, and less stressful for patients all over the world.”

MESA, AZ – 12 Oct, 2015 – Boat Angel Family Films is proud to announce the completion of Jake and the Giants, a musical, animated film for all ages.

“We are so excited that Jake and the Giants is complete and is being shopped worldwide to theatrical distributors,” says Executive Producer Richard Lewis (Hannah-Barbera). “I am really proud of the cast and crew and truly believe families across the world will be enthralled with this story and the theme of You are Never Too Small.”

Jake and the Giants is about a young boy named Jake (Voiced by Debbi Derryberry of Castle in the Sky, Toy Story, and Peter Pan), his sister Joanie (Voiced by Katie Leigh of My Little Pony and The Adventures of Gummi Bears), and their dog Waldo, who are the only ones left in the village of Shiloh after a vicious attack by gold-thirsty giants and their monkey henchmen. The captured inhabitants are carried away by boat and taken to a mountain top gold mine to work as slaves. The adventure follows Jake, Joanie, and Waldo on their dangerous quest to rescue their family from the mine with the wisdom of Wisey the owl, the encouragement of Whitey the albatross, and a family of riverboat beavers who give them a rescue vessel. They discover that even if a task is difficult they can find success, especially in helping others.

“This film is a family-friendly feature, that is reminiscent of many of the timeless stories, including The Hobbit and Jack and the Beanstalk. The animation is very good for a small studio production and the music has fun, toe-tapping tracks that are fun to sing along with,” says Bob Pearyea, film reviewer.

Brian Stewart (Adventures of Donkey Ollie), the film’s author, stated, “With the great animations by Tom Pong, combined with the directorial vision of Kent Butterworth (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), this film will, without a doubt, impact viewers of all ages. We are hoping that parents and children will leave the theatre with some of the songs stuck in their head as well.”

The trailer for Jake and the Giants can be viewed Here.

SHERMAN OAKS, CA – 12 Oct, 2015 – On September 25, 2015, the Fraigun Law Group filed a lawsuit for VIOLATION OF CIVIL RIGHTS against the City of Calabasas, its City Manager, several employees and several of its board members: ANTHONY M. COROALLES; ROBIN PARKER; JOHN BINGHAM, FRED GAINES, MARY SUE MAURER, DAVID J. SHAPIRO, and  JAMES R. BOZAJIAN.

Initially, David beat Goliath when Jacobsen, represented by his-longtime friend and advocate non-attorney Gerri Cannon soundly beat the City of Calabasas and their lawyers at the Termination Appeal Hearing.  The Hearing officer found that:

“Based on the analysis, the City did not have good cause to terminate Jacobsen on the collective grounds set forth in the Notice of Intent to Discipline… it is the decision of this Hearing Officer that Jacobsen’s appeal of his termination must be granted, as the City has not sustained its burden of proof.  Jacobsen is entitled to reinstatement to his position as a Building Engineer with all former duties and responsibilities. Jacobsen shall be entitled to back pay and reinstatement of all benefits effective as of the date of termination, Friday, November 8, 2013.”

After the City of Calabasas lost their case and was ordered to reinstate Jacobsen and pay him back wages and benefits, the City surprisingly disclosed for the first time that while Mr. Jacobsen was in the middle of his appeal in Nov 2013, the City “eliminated” the position of Building Engineer, Mr. Jacobsen’s job, without notifying him.

To date, the city continues to refuse to pay Jacobsen his back wages except a meager six weeks.  They continue to refuse to reinstate his job. They continue to refuse to comply with the order of the Hearing Officer they themselves selected.

The City of Calabasas continues to act like a Giant despite the Hearing Officer’s order. In this new lawsuit, the Fraigun Law Group argues, in seven separate causes of action, that the City and its various representatives deprived Jacobsen of his property right, his job!

The Complaint seeks lost wages, reinstatement, attorneys’ fees, various Labor Code damages and penalties and punitive damages.

Additional information on this case will be available as the case proceeds and made available by press release. Attorney Marina Kats Fraigun representing Mr. James Jacobsen Petitioner are available for interviews by contacting MERG Digital.

Summary:

Marina Kats Fraigun, The Principal at the Fraigun Law Group in Sherman Oaks, CA stated, “What should have been the appropriate response by the City of Calabasas – to simply follow the hearing officer’s ruling has now taken a different path. The City continues to act like Goliath trying to crush David. In addition to substantial other damages, the City has now exposed its taxpayers and various individuals to liability for punitive damages, raising this case to a different level.  I am not going to let David get crushed!”.

While the world’s leaders remain baffled in their multitudinous attempts to solve the global problems of terrorism, air and water pollution, water shortage, daily gun shootings, rape, poverty, disease, etc. a spiritual master-cum-songwriter named Sankarshan Das from Austin, has emerged like a brilliant sunrise manifesting out of a pitch black night, releasing a song called “The Peace Formula,” which he predicts will solve all the problems of the world.

Das says, “This song is based on ancient wisdom from India from a time when there was perfect peace and harmony all over the world. When the world’s leaders wake up to the message of this song there will dawn a wonderful new era of global peace, happiness, and prosperity the like of which the earth planet has not experienced for thousands of years.”

The singer manifests an amazing enthusiasm and buoyancy, which is rarely seen nowadays. At one of his concerts at the University of Texas a female fan said, “That’s the happiest, most optimistic person I’ve ever heard.” A guy sitting besides her chipped in, “It sort of makes you feel real good.”

In a style compared by the press to early Bob Dylan minus the skepticism and cynicism, this transcendental troubadour marries the worlds of spiritual enlightenment and music by releasing a song that many will undoubtedly find to be naive and unreasonably hopeful. But we can honestly say that we would love for him to be right. The world now desperately needs a workable peace formula more than ever before. Will this song be that doable formula? Only time and Sankarshan Das will tell.

FRANKFURT, GERMANY – 13 Oct, 2015 – As the world’s authors and publishers convene in Frankfurt, Germany for the 2015 Frankfurt Book Fair, leading digital content provider OverDrive announced global expansion with institutional buyers now in more than 50 countries. To meet increasing global demand in libraries and schools, OverDrive, the leading supplier of eBooks and audiobooks to libraries and schools, announced that it has added 300,000 digital titles from more than 100 top publishers such as Faber & Faber, Simon & Schuster UK, Penguin Random House Spain, Planeta, Random House Germany, China International Book Trading Corporation, Bookwire, Litres Global Russia and W.W. Norton.

In addition, OverDrive has added popular genre publishers to its roster. With the popularity of comics-based TV shows and movies growing internationally, OverDrive’s global eBook catalog now also offers comics and graphic novels from IDW Publishing, Dark Horse Comics, BOOM! Studios, Titan Comics, Radical Publishing, Archie Comics and MediaDo. To learn more, OverDrive will be exhibiting at the Frankfurt Book Fair in Frankfurt, Germany October 14-18 in booth 6.2 D79.

“We are very bullish about the exploding new international market opportunities for publishers,” said Erica Lazzaro, OverDrive’s Director of Publisher Services. “OverDrive’s global market is now providing tremendous discovery opportunities for readers at libraries and schools around the world.”

Now offering content in 50 languages, OverDrive continues to grow its global footprint and expand and diversify its catalog of more than two million digital titles. More than 500 new international channel partners from 30 countries this year joined the 34,000 libraries and schools worldwide that use digital book services through OverDrive. New partners include libraries and schools in Japan, Denmark, South Korea, United Kingdom, Switzerland, South Africa, Ireland, Germany, Thailand, Sweden, Turkey, Luxembourg, Singapore, Malaysia, and Ireland. In support of these diverse communities, libraries and schools partnering with OverDrive are able to integrate a complete multilingual website interface available in 13 languages to search, browse and borrow titles.

This year, more people have visited their digital library, browsed and borrowed than ever before. Of the millions of active users, including 3 million first time users in this year alone, library patrons, students and teachers borrowed more than 120 million digital titles from January to September 2015, representing year-over-year growth of 20 percent.

To help meet the increased global demand, OverDrive has introduced several key features to its platform and apps, including OverDrive Read-Alongs (with audio synced to text using industry-standard EPUB3), OverDrive Listen (which allows users to “see audiobook, play audiobook” immediately in their browser), support for both double-byte language audiobooks and right-to-left reading (to enable readers to enjoy the original manga-style titles).

Currently, more than 30,000 libraries and schools are participating in the world’s largest global eBook reading club. From October 7 to 21, Big Library Read (BLR: http://www.biglibraryread.com/ ), facilitated by OverDrive, connects millions of readers around the world simultaneously with an eBook. For the first time, two titles are available to borrow online 24/7 through participating libraries and schools: The Door in the Hedge by Robin McKinley (Open Road) and In the Shadow of Blackbirds by Cat Winters (Abrams). As with previous BLRs, the spotlighted titles are expected to generate significant awareness and engagement in the library and school channels, which will serve to increase sales for these titles and others for the authors.

13 Oct, 2015 – Wake Radiology, the Triangle’s leading provider of outpatient medical imaging, is making 3D mammography more convenient and accessible to women across the region. This groundbreaking cancer screening and diagnostic technology – hailed as the most significant advancement in breast cancer screening in the past 20 years – has been expanded to four Triangle locations since it was first introduced by Wake Radiology in 2013.

This week, Wake Radiology began offering 3D mammography in Garner. It is also available at imaging centers in Raleigh (North Hills Breast Center), Cary and Chapel Hill.

“We have a proud history of bringing new technologies to our patients, and we will continue to invest in advanced imaging technologies that can help save lives,” said Lyndon Jordan III, president of Wake Radiology. “We’re proud to offer more 3D mammography locations than any other outpatient imaging provider in the Triangle. While many practices are focusing on cutting costs, we will continue to invest in equipment that holds so much promise for our patients in the fight against breast cancer.”

3D mammograms provide more accurate imaging, particularly of dense breast tissue and can be performed with the ease of a conventional mammogram. Instead of capturing a flat, two-dimensional image of the breast, a 3D mammogram produces 15 angled views to provide a more detailed view of breast tissue. This creates a 3D image that can be analyzed in a series of 1mm layers – like viewing the pages of a book.

The clarity provided by 3D mammography improves detection of breast cancer by 27-50%. It also means fewer follow-up appointments – and less anxiety for patients – by reducing the need to call back patients for additional screening by 17-40%.

Mary Leigh Hunter is one patient who credits Wake Radiology’s 3D mammogram with saving her life. She didn’t have a family history of breast cancer, but she knew the statistics: One in eight women in America is diagnosed with breast cancer and it kills nearly 40,000 women a year.

She insisted on a 3D mammogram and says it’s the best decision of her life. Her radiologist spotted a questionable shadow and later determined she had breast cancer. Her primary physician was astonished the cancer was detected, saying a traditional mammogram would have never caught it. The cancer would have likely continued to grow for another year and required a much more aggressive treatment.

14 Oct, 2015 – CrowdANALYTIX today released conclusions of its analysis of the first Democrat debate on CNN. These conclusions are part of a series based on the analysis performed by a community of 9300 mathematical brains spread across over 50 countries. CrowdANALYTIX validates and triangulates multiple submissions before releasing these results. More details on the on-going analysis can be found here – “Predict Presidential Candidates for 2016”.

You can view our interactive “Who Said What” chart here.

CNN was expecting one more player for the debate, since they had a backup podium in case Joe Biden decided to show up at the last minute. ​And indeed he showed up, but not in the flesh. His presence on Twitter was greater than Chafee’s, Webb’s or O’Malley’s, which is shocking considering he wasn’t even on stage fighting for speaking time.

But the VP’s field may have narrowed after the debate. Clinton came out strong and her debating experience showed. On Twitter, the main points related to the Secretary revolved around #Benghazi, #equalpay, #woman, #uniteblue and #email, the last of which was shot down by Bernie Sanders in his usual grumpy way.

The real surprise apparently was the Vermont Senator himself. Topics around Sanders were dominated by #whoa (not an acronym, just an interjection). While a lot of viewers were talking about his comments on #revolution and #socialism, he was the clear winner of the debate on the social channel, garnering several #great, #won, #winner and #vote.

Surprisingly, there were no noteworthy mentions of other topics such as Planned Parenthood or they Keystone XL pipeline. Even less were the mentions about the other 3 hopeful candidates.
