I’d like to know what you did with my old yahoo 360 profile, I do not like or appreciate it that you changed?

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

I had a yahoo 360 profile that had my story and good info on it. It also had my poems that I’ve written on there and photos. Where the heck did it go and why do you automatically think that everyone wants you to take matters into your own hands and change people’s profiles, especially without letting them know your messing with them. Also I’ve been getting alot of emails lately that say they saw my "profile" I’ve been married for 3 years, have survived breast cancer which I talked to ladies about through my old 360 profile, and I work with the American Cancer society as a mentor to other cancer patients. Lets face it this yahoo crap is not working so you can cancel everything that is under the Cheryl Conour Hancock or Cheryl Conour or cnconour names permanently,ok? You need to GROW UP and STOP selling profiles, stop changing profiles and be more intune with what your individual profilers actually want.

Usually, only other Yahoo! users like you respond here with advice, not Yahoo! staff. This is not the site for technical support, where any actions can be taken on your account.

The shutdown of Yahoo! 360 beta (http://360.yahoo.com ) had been in the works for at least two years. It was basically announced in the Yahoo! 360 Product Blog in October 2007. A link to that blog was in the upper right corner of your former 360 space (i.e. "Yahoo! 360 News"). The exact close date was announced in May 2009. E-mails were sent to members via the Yahoo! Mail service (http://mail.yahoo.com ) and the impending change was stated via other Yahoo! service areas as well (sometimes in relation to discussion regarding the Yahoo! Profile). Basic instructions regarding transitioning to the Yahoo! Profile (described below) and other services were provided as well.

Yahoo has developed a "universal profile" for users, making a "social-networking" connection via many of its services (not just focused through one service like with Yahoo! 360). The Yahoo! Profile (http://profiles.yahoo.com ) is a centralized hub, but it is not the "new 360". This may be the "profile" that people are mentioning. The Yahoo! Profile is really an upgraded version of the old Yahoo! Members Profile that was always a part of your account. Some features from Yahoo! 360 won’t be included; some may be expanded; and some are totally different. See http://ycorpblog.com/2008/10/16/your-social-control-panel and http://developer.yahoo.net/blog/archives/2008/04/introducing_the_1.html for more information.

Anything that you’ve uploaded to Yahoo! 360 has been erased from the web (besides temporary cached versions of your 360 space that you may be able to find through search engines) as of basically July 13, 2009. Besides closing your Yahoo! account completely (which would include losing all services & content accessed by that Yahoo ID - see http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/edit/changing_users/edit-23.html for details), you can choose from options listed below:

1) Transfer 360 blogs to the Yahoo! Profile

Go to http://download.360.yahoo.com to initiate the transfer process using the left side of the top box. This is assuming that you’ve set up your Y!Profile already. See http://help.yahoo.com/tutorials/prof/index.html for instructions, if you haven’t.

Make sure to adjust your blog permissions by clicking the "Settings" link in the upper right corner of your Y!Profile after your blogs have been transferred. Note that only blogs that weren’t designated as "mature content" at any point in time will be automatically transferred to the Y!Profile.

2) Move to other blog or social-networking services

SOCIAL-NETWORKING SERVICES (has similar features to Yahoo! 360):
MySpace (http://myspace.yahoo.com ), Facebook (http://facebook.com ), Multiply (http://multiply.com ), Xanga (http://xanga.com ), Windows Live Spaces (http://spaces.live.com/ ), Ning (http://ning.com )

You also may want to check out http://social-networking-websites-review.toptenreviews.com/ , which provides a listing of some social-networking services and their features.

BLOG SERVICES:
Blogger/Blogspot (http://blogger.com ), Wordpress, Livejournal (http://livejournal.com ), Vox (http://vox.com ), Typepad (http://typepad.com ), Travelpod (http://www.travelpod.com/ ), Tumblr (http://www.tumblr.com/ )

You also may want to check out http://blog-services-review.toptenreviews.com/ , which provides a listing of top blogging services and their features (excluding Yahoo! 360, of course).

Whatever service you choose, you can download a zip file of all your Yahoo! 360 blogs by using the box at the bottom of http://download.360.yahoo.com before August 19, 2009. You can extract from the zip file a text file of all your blogs (HTML version, including comments) and a folder of uploaded blog images.

You may need to use a service’s import tool (like in the case of Multiply), utilize a workaround like with Blogger (http://www.webdevelopersnotes.com/articles/blog-converter-blogspot.php ), or copy and paste content from the zip file’s text file into the HTML view of a blog entry & re-add images. The zip file will work directly with blog services that have a Movable Type platform.

3) Move to blogs to your own web site domain
Same deal as with #2, you would have to use the zip file of your blog contents.

Where can I buy different Flat Irons?

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

Please tell me which store to find CHI Flat Irons, the Instyler (if its in stores), and the ISO Beauty Turbo Pro. For the ISO Beauty Turbo Pro, which should I have my eyes on? If you know any other good flat irons, please tell me. I want it to be able to straighten in just one stroke and not to damage my hair. I have thick, dark hair two inches below my shoulders. Please help me!!! Do they still sell the CHI Breast Cancer Awareness Flat Iron thing in stores? It’s pink and has little breast cancer symbols all over it. Is the CHI worth the money? P.S Does the Conair Professional Ultra Slim Instant Heat Straightener with Ceramic-coated Plates work well? Hers the link to it:

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=9906764

thanks so,so,so much! i hope i get more than one answer… Remember to tell me some other good flat irons that worked for you! but make sure they aren’t too pricey- my mom would throw a fit!!!

Try ulta. They have good irons for all price ranges. Don’t buy a chi they don’t work that great and they burn hair very easily and are overpriced. But if you did want one i beleive they sell them at target. Try the T3 brand some of them are pricy but they work really well.

My friend had breast cancer it has spread to the liver, the doctors say it is at stage 4.?

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

My friend is in and out of consciousness in the hospital. The doctors are actually working on fluids on her lungs. However, the cancer is not being treated. Why is that? What are the survival chances? Is there hope for them to leave the hospital,go home and get home care? Will they walk around normaly again. The mass is huge….what does this all mean?

Stage 4 breast cancer is not curable, but it is often managed well and women can survive with it for 10 years or more. You are not giving any information needed to assess the situation, but if she is in and out of consciousness with liver and possible lung mets it is very possible additional treatment will not help and it has been decided to treat her palliatively.

Why the Jeans You Wear Can Make a Difference

Saturday, August 22nd, 2009

October 2006 (Medialink) - In 2006, of the 212,920 women in the U.S. diagnosed with breast cancer, approximately 25% will have tumors that carry the HER2 gene. This gene causes a more aggressive form of breast cancer, greater likelihood of recurrence, poorer prognosis and decreased survival - compared to women with other forms of breast cancer. The results of a HER2 test can give a woman insight into her breast cancer and help her and her physician make more informed decisions about appropriate treatment options. Women should ask if a HER2 test has been done on their breast cancer and discuss the test results with their physician.

To help empower women everywhere to ask their doctors for a HER2 test, fashion designer Daniella Clarke of Frankie B. is announcing a national public awareness campaign called “HER2 Genes.” This campaign is designed to raise awareness among women about HER2-positive breast cancer and the importance of HER2 testing through a new and unique avenue: fashion.

By purchasing a pair of “HER2 Genes” online from now until November, Frankie B. will donate all of the proceeds to Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization, whose mission is to raise awareness and help women today who can’t wait for tomorrow’s cure. Daniella hopes the “Genes” will become a symbol of empowerment for the thousands of women who will be diagnosed with HER2-positive disease each year. For more information about the HER2 Genes campaign, visit www.her2genes.com or www.y-me.org.

Emory Winship Patient Story: Living Strong with Stage IV Cancer

Saturday, August 22nd, 2009

Emory Winship Cancer Institute patient Jessica Lucas, co-owner of Intown Pilates Atlanta and an actress, was diagnosed with breast cancer at 33. When doctors found it had spread to her liver, she went from early to late stage cancer in the blink of an eye. But over the past seven years—despite several surgeries, many rounds of chemo, and more than a hundred infusions—she has lived a vibrant, active life, defying the stereotype of chronically ill cancer patients. This is Jessicas story, with images by Emory photographer Kay Hinton, as told in her own words.

Sonocine - Ultrasound For Breast Cancer Detection

Saturday, August 22nd, 2009

SonoCiné utilizes the most advanced medical imaging scanners, including the Siemens Acuson Sequoia™ and the Philips HDI 5000™, to generate image sequences. These sequences are then reconstructed by SonoCiné’s viewing system into both 2D and 3D interactive ciné loops.

Kevin M. Kelly, MD, the inventor of SonoCiné, credits Firehand Technologies Corporation and its founder Matthew W. Smith for the computer technology that enabled his invention.

At present, the most important investigational use of SonoCiné is computer-guided ultrasound whole-breast cancer detection. The SonoCiné breast cancer detection process collects 2,000 to 5,000 permanent ultrasound images from throughout both breasts and optimally presents these images for later radiologist review on a high-resolution monitor. Although SonoCiné is still undergoing clinical evaluation, data to date suggest that when used with mammography, SonoCiné whole-breast ultrasound may reduce the chance of undetected breast cancer and the necessity of radical or invasive treatment through early detection.

SonoCiné, Inc. anticipates that upon FDA approval, there will be significant demand for its products and services, especially for SonoCiné whole-breast ultrasound because breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death and illness in women worldwide.
