Your blog is terrific and just what I need most days.<br /><br />It is chilling to know that sex trafficking still exists and is rather high up there in the list of "world crimes". I follow up on it regularly; just the other day I came across a news article from close to where I live (about an hour or so away) where girls were being tricked into taking topless pictures for a "modeling scout". There is legally nothing these girls can do to get these pictures back or press charges against this man :( It is heart-breaking. This is one of the things that really gets me going.....~*~MizTink~*~https://www.blogger.com/profile/17957216906644474890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8941009800749960495.post-59831111002703969622012-07-20T16:35:19.907-07:002012-07-20T16:35:19.907-07:00MizTink, apologies for taking so long to get a cha...MizTink, apologies for taking so long to get a chance to visit your blog and say a huge thank you for the awards. It seems that my computer hates me and had chosen to show it's disdain by not working.<br /><br />Again sorry and a massive thank you!<br />Loving the blog by the way. Your post about the fact that sex trafficking still exists, was quite chilling.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06418601369080683210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8941009800749960495.post-20930794273647701922012-07-17T22:03:46.039-07:002012-07-17T22:03:46.039-07:00That's what I thought too!! I mean, what's...That's what I thought too!! I mean, what's the point if the chance of still passing it on, because your test came back negative when it shouldn't have, is still blatantly there. Most people who get negative results--especially if that's what they are expecting to get--are not going to "follow up" with more testing....~*~MizTink~*~https://www.blogger.com/profile/17957216906644474890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8941009800749960495.post-65037815824338979292012-07-17T17:50:26.094-07:002012-07-17T17:50:26.094-07:00I would rather a one-in-twelve chance of a false p...I would rather a one-in-twelve chance of a false positive and a one-in-five-thousand chance of a false negative. Because then at least you're likely to get a quick scare, but all you need to do is retest yourself once or twice and the problem's gone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8941009800749960495.post-44710118905032692042012-07-17T11:43:07.709-07:002012-07-17T11:43:07.709-07:00Having it done at the yearly exam is a great idea!...Having it done at the yearly exam is a great idea!!
