Having a large number of moles is a known risk factor for melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer.

This is the conclusion of new research presented at the American Academy of Dermatology's 2015 Summer Academy Meeting in New York, NY.
Dr. Caroline C. Kim, a dermatologist from the Harvard Medical School in Boston, MA, explains that melanomas are not all the same genetically, and so there may be different pathways that drive melanoma in these two different patient groups.

Project Harpoon: The 'deplorable' site photoshopping larger women skinny A Facebook group that photoshops larger women to look skinny has been heavily criticised for promoting unhealthy body images and fat-shaming

‘Project Harpoon’ is a social media group that describes itself with the hashtags #InnerBeauty, #ThinnerBeauty and #SkinnyAcceptance.

Meet the new breed of celebrity: inside the YouTube convention In London last week, 10,000 teenagers turned out to take selfies with the most popular faces on the internet. Harry Wallop went in search of their appeal

Rarely have I felt so out of my depth. Hundreds of teenagers, mostly girls, some of them crying, are queuing to meet Dan and Phil. I have not heard of Dan & Phil, though the one with lank hair looks a bit familiar.

Bafflingly, many of the fans are wearing animal hats, with long dangly ears, which I discover later are llama hats. “Are you a Danosaur or a Philion?” explains Nate Jackson, 16. “Danasaurs wear llama hats, Philions wear lion hats.”

I fancy women and men: The old labels of sexuality failed me As half the young people in Britain say they are neither gay nor straight, married writer Anna Hart explains why being bisexual comes with its own special problems

I was 19 when I realised that my sexuality wasn’t as straightforward as I’d thought. It came out of the blue, one of those 'SURPRISE! You thought you knew yourself. Turns out you don’t, HA!’ moments that life throws at you, when I met a beautiful girl at a student party. She had red hair, sang in a band and had an encyclopaedic knowledge of John Waters movies, and we fell hard and fast for each other. My feelings were simple: she was amazing, I was lucky, we were in love. The complicated bit was deciding what to tell people about it.

Wireless Network: Router

Let’s start with your wireless network, as this is what ties everything together. There’s a good chance you’re still using the same basic Wi-Fi router that you got when you first signed up with your Internet service provider.

How to Find Physical Location of Hidden Wireless Router

I wandered into my work area where I worked as a System Admin and fired up Wi-Fi on my phone. To my surprise, a mystery SSID I knew nothing about appeared in the list of available Wi-Fi networks. The signal on this network was so strong that it had to be in the building. What was this network and where was it coming from?
I did some investigating and scanned each of our routers. What I discovered was that somebody had somehow attached a Linksys wireless router to a network outside our work network. This allowed employees to browse websites unfiltered and exposed.
