April 1 - The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Commodity Credit Corporation has announced interest rates for April 2013. The CCC borrowing rate-based charge for April 2013 is 0.125 percent, unchanged from 0.125 in March 2013. For 1996 and subsequent crop year commodity and marketing assistance loans, the interest rate for loans disbursed during April 2013 is 1.125 percent, unchanged from 1.125 in March 2013.
Interest rates for Farm Storage Facility Loans approved for April 2013 are as follows, 1.375 percent with seven-year loan terms, unchanged from 1.375 in March 2013; 2 percent with 10-year loan terms, unchanged from 2.000 in March 2013 and; 2.250 percent with 12-year loan terms, unchanged from 2.250 percent in March 2013. The interest rate for Sugar Storage Facility Loans for April 2013 is 2.500 percent, unchanged from 2.500 in March 2013.
The maximum discount rate applicable for April 2013 for the Tobacco Transition Payment Program is 5 percent, unchanged from March 2013. This is based on the 3.250 percent prime rate plus 2 percent, rounded to the nearest whole number.
Past monthly releases announcing interest rates charged by CCC on commodity and marketing assistance loans disbursed for that particular month reflect the interest rate the U.S. Treasury charged CCC for that month. This was the interest rate specified by CCC since Jan. 1, 1982, but the process of establishing the interest rate was changed by a provision of the Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act of 1996, enacted on April 4, 1996.
Section 163 of the Act requires that monthly interest rates applicable to commodity and marketing assistance loans are to be 100 basis points or 1 percent greater than the rate determined under the applicable interest rate formula in effect on Oct. 1, 1995. This formula resulted in a rate equivalent to the amount the U.S. Treasury charged CCC for borrowing, for the month.

By The Economist Intelligence Unit, an Energy Realities Partner
For how many more years can the Arctic fend off a resource-hungry world?
When the first wintertime shipment of liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Norway to Japan gingerly crept through the icy Arctic waters this past November, many proclaimed that a new era had begun for the region which surrounds the North Pole. Long thought to contain a sizable chunk of the world's untapped natural resources, the brutal environment north of 66 degrees latitude has filled dreams for many decades. The crossing was a novel triumph for Gazprom Gazprom, a Russian gas company, which aims to broaden its exposure to the fast-growing Asian LNG market. But the Arctic was not ready to yield so easily and would soon bite back at any attempt to exploit its riches. As Shell, an Anglo-Dutch oil and gas company, would discover while attempting to drill for new oil off the north coast of Alaska, the most advanced technology the world can afford is no match for the wild forces of Arctic weather. One of Shell's large rigs broke free from a tow ship and eventually ran aground. The experience led Shell to suspend Arctic exploration, and the story has reverberated loudly through the oil and gas industry. So while the Arctic is slowly opening up for transport, it may take longer before actual resource extraction occurs on any broad scale.
Laurence C Smith and Scott R Stephenson, two geographers at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA), have gained attention for their work studying the pace at which the receding Arctic ice will increasingly open up the region. Their recently published paper, "New Trans-Arctic shipping routes navigable by midcentury", shows that the existing Northern Sea Route is set to greatly expand and that the Northwest Passage—which traverses the North American segment of the Arctic—will become viable. So much so that, by mid-century, trans-Arctic shipping will appear more common across the polar region. For the next few decades, according to Stephenson, "there will be uncertainty throughout the century. We do not even forecast, for example, the region to be totally ice-free at mid-century. But we have very high confidence Polar Class ships [ships to which an ice class has been assigned] can transit by mid-century."
Melting models
Change is already in motion, which will affect shipping well before mid-century. Aggregating seven different climate-forecasting models, Smith and Stephenson also suggest that in the nearer term the Northern Sea Route (NSR)—the pathway that hugs the coasts of Norway, Russia and onward through the isthmus between Alaska and western Russia—will broaden during the northern hemisphere summer. The opportunity for non-ice-strengthened, open-water ships to transit the NSR will increase therefore as the seasonal window, which currently runs from July to October, opens further.
Although the rate at which late summer ice has collapsed since 2006 has shocked environmentalists and climate scientists, Stephenson points out that "the possible advancement in the starting date of navigation has more to do with the overall negative trend in ice extent—which is robust, with satellite data back to 1979—and less to do with the more rapid decline observed in the last decade."
Transit to Asia
It is probably no accident that Gazprom's experimental, wintertime LNG shipment targeted Japan. The Asian market for LNG is soaring. China's recent imports have risen to the highest levels ever and Japan, which lost more than 25% of its electricity inputs from nuclear in the post-Fukushima environment, has also recently called on massive increases in coal, LNG and oil imports to make up the difference.
It would not be surprising, therefore, if global LNG shipments began to increasingly transit the Arctic during the expanding summer window of lower ice levels. Japan routinely pays some of the highest world prices for imported LNG and recently paid over US$19 per million BTU, according to Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) data, which is an even higher price on a BTU basis than oil. Asian buyers of LNG, as price-takers, will surely seek ways to create pricing competition. China, Japan and other Asian countries could possibly optimize for max-loading shipments of summertime LNG, by expanding their domestic storage networks.
Extreme resources
Since the start of the millennium the world has increasingly turned to energy resources at the extreme end of the recovery spectrum. Projects of the kind seen over the last decade at Sakhalin, a Russian island, for example, have served as a test case showing how ice floes, permafrost and volatile weather can rapidly balloon into massive cost overruns and delay. And Sakhalin itself, for all its difficulty, is actually located just south of the Arctic circle.
At these new frontiers of resource extraction, companies are often starting from scratch. This is why the advent of more habitual transport will almost certainly precede any resource extraction in the Arctic. If transport routes open up even more quickly than anticipated, the development cycle in the Arctic could also proceed at a faster pace.
Emergence of the Northern Rim
Laurence Smith is also the author of The World In 2050: Four Forces Shaping Civilization's Northern Future, a meditation on the enormous changes starting to bear down on people of the Northern Rim Countries (Canada, Russia, the northern United States, Scandinavia, Iceland, Greenland). In his final chapter, entitled "Good-bye Harpoon, Hello Briefcase", Smith reminisces that he had been tightly focused on the subject of climate change but had come to realize that "Everything is linked. Shrinking ice, natural resource demand, and political power were all tugging on each other." And further: "The people I've met are not hoping that outside task forces will be dispatched to save them from climate change. They want the power—and yes, the resource revenues—to save themselves."
Indeed, it seems inevitable now that as the Arctic ice recedes further north, cultures and communities will migrate north as well. Previously extreme resources will become less extreme. And humans will increasingly leave their mark on the landscape of the Arctic.

After the disappointment that was Australia, Kamui Kobayashi is determined to bounce back at Caterham's home race in Malaysia.
Despite a solid pre-season, Caterham were hit with numerous problems at the season-opening grand prix in Australia.
Only managing to put in laps in the final practice, the team went into qualifying under prepared but that didn't stop Kamui Kobayashi from finishing in 15th place.
With a penalty to a driver ahead of him on the grid, the Japanese driver started P14 but didn't make it past the first corner as his brakes failed and he crashed out, taking Felipe Massa with him.
His team-mate Marcus Ericsson also failed to finish as his parked his CT05 on lap 27.
But while the start of the season may have been a disappointing one, Kobayashi is confident Caterham can bounce back next weekend at their home race, the Malaysian GP.
"The second race of the year is Malaysia and it's our team's first home race of the year, so it's going to be a good week!" he said.
"I've obviously raced there a few times before, and finished in the points in 2011, and this year it would be great if we were able to fight for a point, but we'll have to make sure we have a better Friday than we did in Australia if we're going to have a stronger weekend at Sepang.
"The way we bounced back in qualifying in Melbourne showed a little bit of what we can do, but without any real laps in FP1 or FP2 we only had a very small chance to fight.
"With a proper Friday and Saturday program we can give ourselves the opportunity to show the true pace of the car, and prepare much more for the race.
"Obviously, I'd like to also make sure I don't have the same brake problems that caused the accident in turn one in Australia - without that I think we'd have had a strong race and we'll work as hard as we can to give ourselves the chance to really perform."

We all know research goes on in areas such as psychology and biology, but in mathematics? The answer is yes! Math is actually a field where very close collaboration is crucial among those doing research. Dr. Gary Kennedy, Professor of Mathematics, has been doing research for the past 30 years. He has conducted research with other OSU-Mansfield faculty such as Dr. Mirel Caibar and Dr. Lee McEwan.
His research specialization is in algebraic geometry. He describes this as a subject that "sits at the center of the Math world and interacts with lots of other subjects." Dr. Kennedy will take a whole system of equations and understand where the set points are. "You're very constrained by the rules," he says. "Yet, what you want to do is discover something new and creative that satisfies those rules."
Dr. Kennedy believes that collaboration is more important in mathematical research than individual work. "Everyone can tell you how something can be improved and how it should be looked at from a different point of view," he says. During these sessions, math researchers share a whiteboard by taking turns to write equations and discuss their relationships among other mathematical theories.
Sometimes the goal is to discover new ways to think about equations, given some existing theories. Among his many publications, Dr. Kennedy's biggest research achievement was made using quantum cohomology. He recalled, "My colleague and I came up with answers to 100 year old equations that had never been given before." A list of Dr. Kennedy's publications can be found here.
Students interested in majoring in mathematics can take some coursework at OSU-Mansfield and finish on Columbus campus. Research opportunities with OSU-Mansfield math faculty could be possible with the completion of these upper-level courses.

Going Undercover at the GOP's Voter Vigilante Project to Disrupt the Nov. Election
I was nervous getting onto the flight to Denver. Since 2004, I have been a national radio producer, investigative reporter, author and consultant—writing about how elections are won, lost, bungled and improved, with a big focus on voter registration. But I had never snuck into a meeting of right-wing voting vigilantes who are the frontline of a national voter suppression strategy, and where the main speaker was a man whose new book I'd aggressively debunked days before, in an AlterNet article lauded by a leading election law blog and Washington Post. The meeting was a state summit organized by a group called True The Vote. The author was John Fund, who absurdly claims that more than 1,000 felons voted illegally in Minnesota in 2008, sending Democrat Al Franken to the U.S. Senate, where he was the final vote that passed Obama's health care reform.
I didn't want to be outed or bullied. I support citizen activism and was intrigued, even if I knew I was heading into the heart of the GOP election fraud brigade at the Colorado summit. On the plane, I wondered why many of the right-wing activists I hoped to meet in Denver believe as they do—eyeing almost all phases of the voting process with suspicion and mistaking errors as political conspiracies. The group's Web site was very thin, but as knowledgeable people told me, they had big money behind them and were organizing on a scale that recalled the early days of the Christian Coalition.
The next day, Saturday, August 18, I got up early, ate quickly and took my props—a copy of Fund's 2004 book, Stealing Elections, one of the first Republican tirades to make outsized and false claims that Democrats were involved in vast conspiracies to illegally vote, and a blog post saying the summit was open to walk-ins. I looked like I was going golfing and headed for the Sheraton conference center. A few minutes before 9, I got in line behind a manicured middle-aged man wearing an Americans for Prosperity T-shirt, the group founded and still funded by the Koch Brothers, and a few retirees, all white, and asked if they any room left. They nodded. When time came for pay, a perky woman at the welcome desk asked my name for a badge. Next to her sat Fund, selling and signing his book . I quickly replied, "Steve Rose," what my friends call me. No one blinked. Then I bought the book for $20. He signed, "Keep Fighting. John Fund."
Once inside, the meeting began with the Pledge of Allegiance, a prayer "for truth in America" in Jesus' name, and then some of the most incredible tirades against liberals I'd ever heard, including Fund's messianic exhortation to work against all those who "bear false witness," which, ironically, is exactly what he and True the Vote does.
Voting Vigilante
True the Vote is a voting vigilante group that never should have grown past its Texas cowboy-meets-Tea Party justice roots. Its top leaders have a jaunty, string 'em up, guilty-until-proven-innocent mindset. They represent the most extreme views on the Right when it comes to voting—that the process is filled with corruption that is bound to be exploited by local political bosses and machines, which, of course, are Democratic. Where liberals see that a third of all eligible voters in America do not vote and want to make the process more accessible, the Right believes to do so would mean the end of America as they know it. They think it's patriotic to be self-appointed judges, juries and if necessary, citizen police, to stop what they believe is rampant illegal voting. This purview goes far beyond today's fights over voter ID .

Portland Design Works King of Ding Brass Bell $0.00
Be heard to be seen
Like the sound of a playing card in the spokes, some sounds simply sing the songs of cycling nostalgia. Remember, long before we were so serious as to call riding a bike 'cycling,' our bells were the language in which the roaming 'peloton' of banana-seats and streamer'ed-stallions communicated. In those princely days on your block, the bell chimed just to chime, but now as an adult, the Portland Design Works King of Ding Brass Bell is a safety necessity for your urban empire.
Whether you're keeping a car in check, or trying to surpass a jogger, the King of Ding will herald the message loud and clear. It features a solid brass construction, a brass striker, and an alloy mounting bracket. The striking note is sonorous and distinct, and the bracket fits both 22.2 and 25.4mm handlebars.
The Portland Design Works King of Ding Brass Bell comes with a shim for 22.2mm handlebars and is available in the color of natural brass.

Poorly designed
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I was excited to purchase what appeared to be a simply made brass bell. What could go wrong? I was disappointed to find that the spring that releases the "striker" does not have enough oompf to provide a clean toll becuase the striker is between the bell and handlebars. It's just a poor design. And, when you are lucky enough to get a crisp ring it sounds nice but, in spite of the write up here, not loud enough to keep a car at bay. If I had saved my receipt and packaging I would have returned it for a refund. Don't waste your money.
captain jean luc picard
this bells suit would be made of tweed.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
so this bell isnt the loudest ive heard, but thats fine. it has a crisp, clear and classic "ting!" with a good sustain. when other bells are perhaps along the tones of - "Get out of the way!" or "Hey! Look Here!", this bell is more of a civilized "Ahem, excuse me please." it probably is a little hard to hear above traffic noise, but if you are fitting it on a leisure bike meant for rides on the parkway with the lady, or taking the dog on a neighborhood run, it works great.
Mr. Rowe
Looks nice, but that is about it.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I love the way this looks on my bike, but for being a brass bell that is call the "King of Ding" I'd say it fails miserably. It's really not that loud at all. I love how it looks, so I wonder if a stronger spring would help. This spring seems pretty flimsy, enough so that sometimes if I hit a bump in the road, it will end up slapping the bell. The spontaneous ding as I hit a bump makes me feel like I am in a live-action video game.
Rocky Thompson
Not a fan
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This bell looks cool. Or, as cool as a bike bell can possibly look. It's rather small and unobtrusive. The design is clean and simple. But it doesn't work all that well. Sure, if I want to ride home at night, dinging a bell over and over just to hear it, it's fine. But if you live in a city where cars like to use bike lanes for auxiliary parking, and they often begin merging into you without looking, this bell will not get their attention. It dings once each time you ping it, and it's not that loud. Also, the simple nature of its design doesn't leave much clearance for the piece that strikes the bell, so it doesn't work very well if you have brakes or grips on your handlebars.
You nailed it. This is exactly the problem: "Also, the simple nature of its design doesn't leave much clearance for the piece that strikes the bell, so it doesn't work very well if you have brakes or grips on your handlebars."

Schools Focus: How you can make schools safer for all!
Thursday, January 26
Are you a youth or adult interested in making a difference in the schools in your community? Come to this day-long institute to learn about the current state of LGBT issues in schools across the country and what you can do to make a difference. Whether you interact daily with a school community or are an interested bystander who wants to get involved, we'll share tools for you to advocate for and implement effective evidence-based interventions at the state and local level both personally and by providing information and resources to others. Appropriate for any who are interested in safer schools – whether you've been doing the work already for years or are just preparing to dive in. (If you're more experienced, please be prepared to share some of your best practices in discussion sessions.) Organized and presented by GLSEN, the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network.
The Task Force Lobby Day
Thursday, January 26
The Task Force Lobby Day will be an incredible way to participate in the political process and to make our voices heard by congressional members. This will give grassroots and community activists a stimulating opportunity to help create change at the federal level.
We will explain why workplace fairness, safe schools and anti-violence services are tremendous concerns for LGBT people. The "How to Effectively Lobby Your Member of Congress" portion of the day will include message training on the legislation and role-play visits to give participants a chance to practice messages. Thousands of everyday people will share their stories to persuade their Members of Congress to support and co-sponsor inclusive-and-focused LGBT legislation. We encourage individuals of all experience levels to sign up for Lobby Day. First-time citizen lobbyists are welcome and encouraged! We will board buses from Baltimore and have lunch on the road to Washington, DC.
Federal Efforts to Achieve Safer Schools
Saturday, January 28 – 6:30 – 7:30 pm
This workshop will examine current federal efforts around safe schools legislation, specifically related to anti-bullying and anti-harassment legislation. The importance of such legislation will be discussed, as well as current status, likely legislative vehicles, and the role participants can play in advocating for legislation to create safe schools.
2-4-6-8 Get Ready to Evaluate!: Practical Program Evaluation for the LGBT Activist
Saturday, January 28 - 10:45 am - 12:15 pm
This workshop will introduce common evaluation concepts, provide strategies to help you assess your work, and explore how sharing your evaluation findings can help further the LGBTQ movement. Participants will gain practice using evaluation tools and explore cost-effective, feasible ways to evaluate your activities.
Day of Silence Session
Saturday, January 28 - 10:45 am - 12:15 pm
Calling all K-12 student organizers and adult allies! Come learn about and prepare for the National Day of Silence, the largest annual LGBT-student action in the country, designed to bring attention to and action against anti-LGBT bias, bullying and harassment in K-12 schools! Participants will leave the workshop with a thorough understanding of the action and how to successfully implement it in their school and/or community.
My name is Carly, I'm a student ambassador for GLSEN, and an 8th grader in Arizona.
Since my mom is an ally, I've been an ally for basically as long as I can remember. In fact, I don't think I could imagine that not being a part of my life. And for as long as I've been an ally, the question I've been asked the most has always been "Why?" "Why do you care so much about gay people if you're straight yourself?"
Well, there are several answers to that question. First of all, I believe a lack of acceptance and an attitude of intolerance is one of the biggest issues our society faces, and one that has been the root cause of some of the most tragic events in history. In this case, anti-LGBT bullying, homophobia, and heterosexism in schools have caused tragedies. It has caused the tragedy of talented, bright kids not achieving the success they could be in school or even dropping out because they are too afraid of being harassed to focus on academic success. It has caused hundreds of teens to suffer from anxiety or depression every year. In short, anti-LGBT bullying is a common and extremely serious problem. And I don't want to just sit by and watch it wreck a ton of amazing young people's lives. That's probably the biggest part of why I'm an ally—I think it's just the right thing to do.
Besides that, I strongly believe that anti-LGBT bullying does not only negatively impact the LGBT community, but also an environment in which no once can feel comfortable being who they are and expressing themselves, for fear of being judged, labeled, bullied, or harassed. These kind of hostile surroundings, where everyone is more worried about not becoming a victim then they are about doing well in school or life, is not conducive to a healthy learning environment or a healthy person. As an ally, it is my hope that one day, everyone will be able to go to school and just be themselves and focus on being the best they can be. I want to wake up in a world where people are free from gender stereotypes that stifle their ability to lead the life they want to.
Ultimately, I believe the quote that "If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor" is true, and I don't want to take the side of bullying. Allies are in a position to "be the change," as GLSEN says. They have the opportunity to break down the walls between LGBT students and their straight peers that often lead to a feeling of isolation for the LGBT students. To be a voice for people who are in the closet and can't speak up for themselves, be a supporter for people who are coming out or need somebody to talk to, and fight along side all the wonderful LGBT youth who have worked to achieve safer and more inclusive schools.
Being an ally is something I would encourage everyone to do, because although you may face some challenges, I have had so many great experiences and met so many amazing people because of being an ally. And at the end of the day, I feel really proud to be a part of a movement that involves people of all different sexual orientations and gender identities, joined together for a great cause.

Two things I've learned over the years that I've worked with LGBT students at the American Civil Liberties Union are that many school administrators and teachers don't have the slightest clue about what their students' legal rights are, and that a lot of the ones who do know go right ahead and violate students' rights anyway because they think they can get away with it.
The only way to be sure that your school will respect and uphold your legal rights is for YOU to educate yourself about what your rights are and hold your school to its responsibility to protect and enforce them.
That's never more true than during the Day of Silence, an annual event designed to bring attention to the bullying, harassment, and name-calling LGBT students often experience in school. Here are four things you need to know about your rights as you mark Day of Silence this year on Friday, April 15.
1. You DO have a right to participate in Day of Silence and other expressions of your opinion at a public school during non-instructional time: the breaks between classes, before and after the school day, lunchtime, and any other free times during your day. If your principal or a teacher tells you otherwise, you should contact our office or the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network.
2. You do NOT have a right to remain silent during class time if a teacher asks you to speak. If you want to stay quiet during class on Day of Silence, we recommend that you talk with your teachers ahead of time, tell them that you plan to participate in Day of Silence and why it's important to you, and ask them if it would be okay for you to communicate in class on that day in writing. Most teachers will probably say yes.
3. Your school is NOT required to "sponsor" Day of Silence. But Day of Silence is rarely a school-sponsored activity to begin with – it's almost always an activity led by students. So don't be confused - just because your school isn't officially sponsoring or participating in Day of Silence doesn't mean that you can't participate.
4. Students who oppose Day of Silence DO have the right to express their views, too. Like you, they must do so in a civil, peaceful way and they only have a right to do so during non-instructional time. For example, they don't have a right to skip school on Day of Silence without any consequences, just as you don't have a right to skip school just because you don't like what they think or say.
If you're concerned that your school might forbid you from participating in Day of Silence, you might want to print out the ACLU's "Letter to Educators about the Day of Silence" (2-page PDF) and give it to your school administrators. Tell them they should show the letter to the school's lawyer. The letter explains what schools' responsibilities are regarding Day of Silence.
And for more information on your rights in public schools, check out the youth and schools section of the ACLU's website.

Whatever you do, be respectful, especially of others who are observing the Day of Silence, but bring attention to the issues of anti-LGBT name-calling, bullying and harrasment in schools.
>Every year after the Day of Silence we tally up the numbers of participants and supporters to share with our donors and to highlight the importance of the work that GLSEN does. Don't you want to be counted?
Students (middle, high school and college) register here.
Adults - Support our students by signing the pledge.
Help us prove that people care about ending anti-LGBT bullying.
>As the Day of Silence approaches we've been getting lots of questions and comments along two similar but distinct threads on our various websites and in our email.
1) Do I need to be silent all day? Can I communicate at all? Can I blog/tweet/facebook?
2) Being silent doesn't help and only perpetuates the problem. We should be speaking out.
The answer to both of these is similar: being silent has been and continues to be a very powerful way to create positive dialogue around the problem of anti-LGBT bullying for many students across the country. However, each person who participates in the Day of Silence has a different way of participating.
For some, the best way to participate is by being completely silent, including not participating in online communication. For others, the best way to participate is by spending the day speaking out about the issues of LGBT bullying. Some who participate get limited approval from their schools for their participation and so can only be silent during breaks between classes. There are many ways of participation ranging from complete silence to no silence.
The point is that the DOS is a day to bring attention to the problem of anti-LGBT bullying and each person who participates must determine how they can best use, or not use, their voice to do that. If you feel you will have the deepest positive impact by remaining completely silent and have the appropriate approvals to do so then go for it. If you feel that in your situation, you can have a deeper positive impact by speaking out then that should be your way of observing. No one can make that determination but you.
Your voice, whether silent or loud, WILL make a difference this Friday and the Day of Silence will speak volumes.
>Still more stories being shared over at facebook - and I become more and more inspired by all those who are participating and supporting:
I actually did this last year before and it brought back some bad memories. For the simple fact that I wasn't speaking, people judged me, pushed me around. I didn't have a single defense for myself. My actions could not help when nobody was looking at me. To quote a book title, "I have no mouth and I must scream." It was how I felt that day. Now, I must put myself through it again to feel the pain that people go through every single day. I may be straight, but I love all people, no matter their race, gender, or sexuality. It's so sad that people treat others as if they are nothing. I hope we all can stand up with our arms braced and get through this.

'GMA' anchor Amy Robach diagnosed with breast cancer
"Good Morning America" anchor Amy Robach announced on the show on Monday morning that she has been diagnosed with breast cancer.
Robach's cancer was initially detected during an on-air mammogram she underwent on the show last month.
"A short time later, I was asked to come back for more scans," Robach said. "Then last week, a tornado of tests. Doctors move quickly when they're concerned. Finally, the diagnosis that's still hard for me to say out loud: I have breast cancer."
Robach said she had been putting off the mammogram for a year.
"I know I that I have a fight ahead of me, but I also know that I have a lot worth fighting for. And I'm so greatful that I got that mammogram that day at GMA," Robach said.

Bridgertons: Happily Ever AfterSum of All KissesJulia Quinn first introduced readers to the Bridgerton family in a light and humourous 8-book romance series. The books allowed readers to follow the tribulations of eight alphabetically named siblings (Anthony, Benedict, Colin, Daphne, Eloise, Francesca, Gregory, and Hyacinth), while enjoying the London background and a fairly substantial set of characters around whom the stories came to be told, including the formidable and forthright Lady Danbury, the definitely unmusical Smythe-Smith family, and the mysterious gossip columnist Lady Whistledown. All of these characters eventually take center stage in their own right in other books, and indeed the Smythe-Smith clan eventually does get their own series. This 'easter egg' (or crossover) effect allows readers to catch up with characters with whom they are familiar and have an affinity, while allowing new readers to start up a series. A prime example of this is the use of a particularly horrid romance novel that is either passed around or which all of the characters seem to end up reading and discussing.
This fall Ms. Quinn's two new books will present readers with either a visit back to not only all of the Bridgertons, but their mother, Violet, with an additional epilogue intended to answer potential questions or tie up any possible loose ends from each of the original eight books in The Bridgertons: Happily Ever After, and yet another unlikely couple will meet up at a Smyth-Smith wedding (one of the three from The Lady Most Willing), in The Sum of All Kisses, under the stern and amused eye of Lady Danbury. August is ReadaRomance month, and Julia Quinn's post will be added to the R-A-R site, which has posts by 93 contributing authors, on August 25th.
StormbreakerRussian RouletteYounger readers will be familiar with Anthony Horowitz as the author of the Alex Rider series. We first met Alex in Stormbreaker, when officers came to his school to tell him that his guardian and uncle, Ian, had been killed in an auto accident. Alex initial suspicions about his uncle's death will set him on a chilling and dangerous path as an MI6 operative and into a life of danger, one that eventually spanned nine books and four graphic novels, with Alex as a teenage secret agent dealing with spies and a life that seemed ever more out of his control.
This fall, Mr. Horowitz is set to release a prequel to the series called Russian Roulette: the story of an assassin, in which readers will get the backstory of Yassen Gregorowich, a boy who will grow up to be Alex's mirror image, and become the man who kills Alex's father.
Are there authors that you wish would revisit a character or a series that you really like, or that reintroduce moments from earlier efforts into their books in a particularly enjoyable way?
