So my cupcakes were a little uglier than usual, big deal, right? So I had to stab my can of pumpkin open with a knife instead of a nice, safe can opener (I wouldn't recommend doing that.) When I finally finished the cupcakes (and trust me, it took forever. At one point I was joined in the kitchen by a guy cooking a wee... |
This is chocolate. Chocolate does not taste like sweat. |
They tasted like pumpkin curry cake with chocolate ganache, nommmm. Don't knock the curry til you try it, it adds a great warmth to the flavor. Now if you'll excuse me, I have some leftover frosting that's just begging to be eaten ^_^ |

1. The combination of curry and pumpkin sounds wonderful here! I definitely will need to try. Regarding the heat-I often wonder if I was cheated on my oven and someone cut a corner by not insulating it properly. My surrounding cabinets get too warm. |
Bayern Munich Seals Position in DFB-Pokal Quarterfinals |
Bayern Munich Seals Position in DFB-Pokal Quarterfinals |
Bayern Munich is considered as the most successful football club in the Deutscher Fussball-Bund (DFB)-Pokal German Cup. |
With 18 titles, the Bundesliga team has dominated the other 63 in the yearly contest by the German Football Association. |
This Saturday, the team will clash against Schalke at the Allianz Arena in Munich. Team manager Niko Kovac is looking forward to another victory following Wednesday’s auspicious match. |
Bayern Munich successfully defeated Hertha Berlin with the final score of 3-2 at the Olympiastadion Berlin. |
During the match’s 98th minute, forward Kingsley Coman took the honor of striking his first goal since December, heading in from close range. |
Coman made it possible for the Bundesliga team to make it to the quarter-finals of the annual DFB-Pokal. |
Bayern Munich’s extra-time winner feat was also engineered by Serge Gnabry who is, what most sports analysts reckon, deserving of the “Man of the Match” recognition. |
The Bayern Munich winger struck two goals during their game against Hertha Berlin. His first powerful goal successfully surpassed the bottom-left corner of the net guarded by Hertha Berlin goalkeeper Rune Jarstein. |
Gnabry’s second goal came shortly following half-time, giving Hertha Berlin difficulties in overcoming the German Cup quarterfinal qualifier. |
Kovac is pleased with his team’s performance against Hertha Berlin. However, he cautioned about errors like what Mats Hummels committed during the game. |
The Bayern Munich central defender apparently lost his focus, making it easy for Pál Dárdai’s team to achieve an equalizer on the 67th minute with just its second shot on the goal. |
Hummels did not notice that Davie Selke was furtively moving behind him. |
Hence, he inadvertently made it effortless for the Hertha Berlin striker to collect the ball and kick it under Sven Ulreich’s net, tying the match to 2-2. |
Bayern Munich has struggled to dominate weaker competitors lately, with football analysts considering the defending Bundesliga champions’ current performance as lackluster. |
Kovac’s team, apparently, has to exert more effort and maintain their concentration on their upcoming games in order for Bayern Munich to retain their winning streaks. |

Love makes people do dumb stuff. But there are practical, easy steps we can take to maintain our privacy during romantic relationships, and changing one simple behavior now could keep us safe later on if the relationship ends badly. |
While plenty of the tens of thousands of hackers who descend on Las Vegas every year for the security conference DEF CON are there to break shit, lots of them are there to play defense, too. Lauren Rucker, a risk analyst who has consulted for NASA, coached attendees on maintaining their privacy rights during relationsh... |
“If you’re living with someone or in a relationship or a marriage with someone, you are giving up a lot of your privacy rights because you’re sharing a lot with that person anyway,” Rucker said. |
Rucker recommends several basic steps for cyber hygiene while dating: |
1. Don’t share your passwords or devices. |
Staying safe in relationships requires setting new norms of behavior before the relationship turns sour, Rucker says. Many people share their Netflix or Amazon passwords with their partners, but doing so can cause legal entanglements later. |
Sharing devices can also weaken your privacy rights if you end up in court. “You don’t necessarily know how things will end and how they might go bad,” Rucker said. Password-protect your laptop and encrypt your hard drive to make sure your data is safe. If you want to allow your partner to use your laptop, set up a sep... |
2. Set up a Google Voice number to use for first dates. |
3. Use a VPN on shared Wi-Fi networks, including your home network. |
Abusive spouses have been known to surveil their partners’ online activity. While spouseware–malware that sneakily harvests geolocation, texts, calls, and other information—is an issue, Rucker notes that abusive partners might also track what their significant other is doing on a shared home Wi-Fi network. Using a VPN ... |
4. If you’re going to make a sex tape, do it consensually and privately. |
We’ve all heard stories of bitter exes leaking nude photos to get revenge on a partner. But that won’t necessarily discourage people from taking nudes. Still, couples can make decisions that will help them preserve their privacy rights down the road, Rucker explained. |
She cites the example of a 2006 divorce case, in which a woman secretly filmed her husband in their home office. A New Jersey court found that the man did not have a reasonable expectation of privacy in the home office because the space was shared with the family. However, other courts have said that couples have a rea... |
Zeaxanthin (pronounced zee-uh-zan’-thin) is one of the most common naturally-occurring carotenoids and antioxidants found in nature. Numerous studies have found this antioxidant to be beneficial in eye health helping to prevent and treat a variety of eye diseases such as macular degeneration. Zeaxanthin is the dominant... |
The origin of Zeaxanthin comes from marigold Flowers (Tagetes erecta L) and has a recommended dosage of a minimum of 2 mg per day. |
The benefits include protecting cell damage from free radicals, and cardiovascular health. It also helps eye health including, age related macular degeneration, protects eye from sun damage. |

Data Mining a Breach’s Silver Lining: Analyze Breach Data to Improve Release of Information Performance in HIM |
By Elizabeth Delahoussaye, RHIA, CHPS |
Health information management (HIM) professionals can pull meaningful information from privacy and security breach data to evaluate release of information (ROI) processes, uncover workflow risks, and implement corrective measures. While large scale breaches impacting millions of patients make big news when they occur, ... |
While singular breaches don’t make headlines or get listed on the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office for Civil Rights’ “wall of shame,” they are prevalent—and if analyzed provide opportunities for HIM professionals and privacy officers to improve processes and better protect patients. This article exp... |
Insightful Analysis Begins with a Holistic Approach |
Using an enterprise-wide approach, health systems should take a look at their owned or affiliated practices to determine where and what types of incidents are occurring. Drill down by site area, looking at the possibility of improvement in clinics and physician practices where breaches could occur. For example, are mos... |
Failure to identify and address breaches at clinics and physician practices can severely affect quality of care and compliance—and cause reputational damage for the entire organization. As the number of breaches in clinics increases, including their data in breach reporting and analysis must be a top priority. |
Privacy officers working alongside HIM directors can help improve ROI by learning from breaches across the enterprise. A strong partnership between privacy and HIM departments is needed to ensure an ongoing reporting and assessment system that also includes office managers in clinics and physician groups. Privacy offic... |
Ask Why at Least Five Times |
Ideally, the privacy officer should meet with office managers at various sites to emphasize the importance of accurate, complete, and timely reporting. During these meetings, the privacy officer should clearly show why this matters and lay out a process. For example, the office manager could agree to notify the privacy... |
In the wake of a breach at one facility, privacy officers and HIM worked with operations to implement a simple yet successful strategy for analyzing targeted issues and improving ROI based on lessons learned. It involves asking “why” five times, or as many times as necessary to discover root causes.1 When a breach or p... |
• Why did this breach happen? |
• Employee sent the wrong record. Why? |
• Wrong records were scanned into the electronic health record (EHR) system. Why? |
• Had a backlog and hired temps to help with scanning. Why a backlog? |
• Did not budget appropriately for volume. Why? |
• Assumed staff could manage workflow of a new unit. Why was this assumed? |
This simple and straightforward inquiry points to two root issues. Prior to opening a new unit, the facility failed to budget for additional staff to manage the workflow—thus the backlog. Then, temporary staff were not properly trained to scan records and to understand the importance of accuracy. HIM and privacy office... |
• Conduct training specific to the cause—clearly identify and address core issues. |
• Practice the “why” routine with potential problem areas. |
• Collaborate with the information governance (IG) team to provide staff education on IG principles—particularly regarding proper levels of protection and availability.2 |
• Discuss future goals, including every hospital, practice, and clinic in planning for additional services, units, or physicians. |
• Evaluate volume and workflow to ensure preparation with properly trained staff in place. |
There’s no good argument against the old adage that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” It still holds true when applied consistently in any discipline. |
Cost of Breach Provides Incentive for Prevention |
While some internal incidents are the result of intentional misuse of information, privacy and security breach within healthcare organizations is more often due to human error. The employees responsible may lose their jobs—in fact, many have. But firing staff may not be the best strategy. The benefits of lessons learne... |
Realizing the cost of each breach is critical to conveying the importance of information integrity. Employees often don’t understand the economic impact of unauthorized disclosure. When you show an office manager and their employees the cost of an error and the principles that are compromised, they can exercise caution... |
From a provider perspective, it’s important to consider the actual cost of each breach—the cost of investigation by privacy, compliance, and HIM departments, and the cost of terminating versus educating an employee who was involved in the breach. Hiring and training a new employee can cost an estimated $4,000 or more.3... |
