text: In the history of rock and roll, there are those moments when all the pieces fall together perfectly: the artist, the songwriter, the producer, the record company. When the combination was the Supremes, Holland, Dozier & Holland, and Motown's Barry Gordy, Jr., the result was musical history. The emergence of the Supremes provided the perfect American counterpoint to the British Invasion of the 1960s. From mid-1964 to mid-1965 alone, the Supremes had no less than five consecutive #1 pop hits. Transcending racial and musical boundaries, they created timeless, soulful pop music, that defied imitation. Diana Ross, Florence Ballard, and Mary Wilson were the jewels in the Motown crown.

I knew I had a bladder infection. I knew it because I'd worked as a nurse practitioner for twenty years and had heard the symptoms described hundreds of times. But I wasn't in practice now, and I couldn't verify my own diagnosis or ask a colleague to prescribe antibiotic treatment. Nor had I found another source of primary care for myself.What to do? I remembered that a nurse practitioner I knew slightly had opened a practice within a mile of my house. Perfect. I grabbed the first appointment I could get.
In her office, I filled out a comprehensive health history, deposited a urine sample in a cup, and waited for what I hoped would be a swift and straightforward consultation. But no, my nurse practitioner wanted to talk about my health in general.
"When was your last mammogram?"she asked, scanning the form I'd filled out.
"Two years ago, I think. But I've decided not to do them anymore."
"I don't believe they save lives," I added defensively.
Her eyes dropped from my face to my family health history, then moved back up to me.
"Ah, I understand," she said compassionately. "Your sister died of breast cancer and you're still dealing with that." She went on for a while, using words like anger and fear.
"No," I resisted. "I don't believe early detection guarantees successful treatment or extends life."
"I understand," she consoled me. "You're not ready. But you really need to start getting your mammograms again. Your sister's cancer puts you at higher risk."
I left the office with the prescription I needed and recovered quickly from the bladder infection, but I couldn't put the encounter out of my mind. I thought of all the things I wished I'd been able to say to my colleague. Maybe this: You're wrong about the anger and fear. My sister's cancer, discovered in her early forties during the course of a routine physical exam, sent me deep into the medical literature with an insatiable hunger for information. It's this search for answers and twenty years of experience caring for women—many of whom bore physical or emotional scars acquired in the aftermath of suspicious or inconclusive mammograms—that led me to decide that I could no longer endorse the tests as routine screening measures for me or any other woman.
[Do you still get mammograms? Join the debate or ask the author a question here.]
Slipping Confidence In Screening
At age fifty-six, as I stood in the small room at the breast center, my left breast sandwiched between two metal plates for my yearly mammogram, I didn't realize it would be my last screening. In fact, I can't remember just when my confidence in screening mammograms started to slip. Maybe it was after reading an early edition of Dr. Susan Love's Breast Book, which I'd bought with the intention of passing it on to my sister the year she had her mastectomy.
I was impressed by how plainly and intelligently Love, a breast surgeon, presented the research findings about mammography. Her discussion of both the pros and cons of routine screening seemed more reasoned than what I was reading in the clinical literature and hearing at conferences. If my physician or nurse practitioner colleagues had reservations about the screening protocols we advocated, they weren't voicing them. Mammograms were, after all, standard practice.
I began to plow through research studies online and in the medical library. I studied the wordings of my patients' and my own mammogram results. They were almost never reported as normal, but as "benign findings" or "no evidence of malignancy at this time." Keep coming back, they seemed to predict, and we'll find it. I observed how the need for a repeated image, a call back, or the mere mention of words like lump, mass, referral—even watch—culled a woman from the world of the carefree well forever.
In my practice and personal life, I saw how women embraced the well-intentioned but relentless messages from medical, workplace, and women's groups to "take the test, not the chance." Mammograms save lives, we were reminded. You owe it to yourself and your family. Be responsible.
Campaigns were mounted against insurers that didn't cover yearly mammograms. Free testing for poor or uninsured women became a cause to be championed. It did no good to remind women that heart disease and lung cancer take more women's lives than breast cancer. They knew that breast cancer strikes younger and harder. And there's no practical way to prevent it.
There were feature stories about celebrity survivors as well as "everyday" women whose breast cancer, thanks to a routine mammogram, was found early and treated fast. Breast cancer gave new meaning to the now-annual race, the color pink, the month of October (which has become Breast Cancer Awareness Month). Industries from T-shirt manufacturers to radiology departments geared up to support this new movement.
Then research reports began to filter into the media from unfamiliar, foreign-sounding organizations like the Nordic Cochrane Centre. (The Nordic Cochrane Centre describes itself as "an independent research and information centre that is part of The Cochrane Collaboration, an international network of individuals and institutions committed to preparing, maintaining, and disseminating systematic reviews of the effects of health care"; its Web site is http://www.cochrane.dk/.) The reports verified the benefit of mammography screening—for a few women, at a significant cost in unnecessary follow-up and treatment for hundreds of others. But minds that were made up didn't open to take in this new information. The whole engine of breast cancer awareness was—and still is—simply too big, too powerful, and too well funded to gear down.
Compelling Data
I continue to shock friends when the subject of their latest date with the mammographer comes up, and I admit that I'm no longer a member of the club. I can't bring myself to smile at the cartoons, laugh at the jokes, forward the e-mails with the funny stories, or wear the pink ribbon. Nor do I, unless asked, elaborate on the compelling data that have informed my own decision.
I discovered early on that facts alone would sway no one. So I simply listen respectfully to other women, many of them close friends. They tell me that, thanks to early detection and surgery—often followed by grueling courses of chemo and radiation—they or their best friend, sister, or mother are here today as survivors with many healthy years ahead of them.
They do not question their logic. That is, they don't consider whether the outcome would have been any different without early detection or extensive treatment. And if the many healthy years do not materialize, it is seldom remarked on. The sad truth is that, despite excruciatingly slow advances in treatment, there is still no way of knowing with certainty whether the surgery, chemo, or radiation "got it all."
These days, on the rare occasions when someone really wants to know why I don't get mammograms, I'm glad to be able to share the information from a useful little pamphlet published online in eleven languages in 2008 by that remote-sounding Nordic Cochrane Centre. It's located, as it happens, in Denmark:
"If 2,000 women are screened regularly for ten years, one will benefit from the screening, as she will avoid dying from breast cancer. At the same time, ten healthy women will…become cancer patients and will be treated unnecessarily. These women will have either a part of their breast or the whole breast removed, and they will often receive radiotherapy, and sometimes chemotherapy. Furthermore, about 200 healthy women will experience a false alarm. The psychological strain until one knows whether or not it was cancer, and even afterward, can be severe."
Another important fact from my friends at the Nordic Cochrane Centre: It has not been shown that women who undergo regular screening live longer than those who don't. This information is available elsewhere in different forms, but I like the clarity and concision of the Nordic Cochrane Centre pamphlet—as well as its list of solid scientific references.
Although I'm fully persuaded, I'm not naïve. I know it will take more than this information for many of my friends to shift their thinking. The "routine" mammogram has become part of the cycle of their year. They get prodding and support from their family, social networks, and doctors who must adhere to community standards of practice. Doctors and other providers, meanwhile, have to reckon with the knowledge that preventive health screening statistics might be collected from patients' charts by review boards, insurers, or plaintiffs' attorneys.
Discord In The Ranks
The Washington Post headline late in 2009, "Fierce Debate Raging over New Cancer Test Guidelines," came as no surprise to me. The US Preventive Services Task Force had recommended that women age fifty or younger, as well as those over seventy-five, talk to their doctor about how often they should be screened, rather than automatically opting for an annual mammogram. What's more, the task force recommended a screening mammogram every two years for women ages 50–74. The task force is an independent panel of private-sector experts in prevention and primary care; it is currently composed of ten physicians, one nurse, and a Ph.D. in health management and policy. The members had relied on the available evidence, statistical models, and their own professional judgment to reach their conclusions. (If you want to find out more about the basis on which the task force made its recommendation, read "Screening for Breast Cancer: U.S. Preventive Services Task Force Recommendation Statement" in the November 17, 2009, issue of the Annals of Internal Medicine.) After the recommendations were released and a heated debate began, the disappointing news that government officials were quick to backpedal from the task force's recommendations didn't surprise me, either.
What? No more yearly mammograms? No routine screening for most women below fifty? The media were quick to highlight the discord among medical professionals who responded publicly to the recommendations.
Some activists suggested that the recommendations were a political move aimed at cutting costs, and that the government and private insurers would soon limit the number of mammograms they would pay for. Those breast cancer awareness advocates who believe that catching cancer early is a matter of life and death cried foul.
Breast care centers with enormous investments in mammography machines and technicians continued to promote the benefits of annual screening. The general public, including most health professionals, clung to the belief that early detection saves lives. They are heavily influenced by vociferous groups and experts with a stake in perpetuating the status quo.
If you are the one in two thousand whose life is extended, that's all that counts.
If you are somehow harmed as a result of annual mammograms, that's the price you pay for access to a test that is considered the "gold standard" in breast cancer detection.
My Perspective
Because I understand that the clinical debate about screening mammograms is far from settled, I'd like to share my own perspective and action plan in the hope that, over time, a new consensus will be reached.
Metastatic breast cancer is terrible, no question. But I agree with the writers of the commentary in the January 13, 2010, issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association that breast cancer is just as treatable and just as deadly regardless of screening. I've opted out of routine screening.
I might accept the statistical evidence that because I have a first-degree relative who had breast cancer, my own risk is increased, perhaps even doubled. But that fact doesn't make screening any more valuable to me than it would be to another woman—unless I believe that early detection will guarantee a better outcome for me. I don't.
I've made sure that my primary care physician accepts my reasoning and supports me in my choice, although I welcome information from him about new findings that might affect my decision.
I don't do breast self-exams. There's no evidence to support their effectiveness. But that's not to say I don't pay attention to my body. If I should happen to discover a lump in my breast, I'll have it evaluated. I'm not opposed to having a diagnostic mammogram.
If I'm told a lump is cancerous, I'll seek other opinions. The interpretation of cell changes can be subjective. I want two—or three—expert pathologists to concur on any changes in mine. In July 2010, a New York Times article titled "Prone to Error: Earliest Steps to Find Cancer" reported that there is often "outright error" in diagnosing breast cancer in its earliest stages, leading to unnecessary surgery, radiation, and drug treatment—as well as fear—for some women.
I won't rush into treatment because I know that cancers don't develop or spread overnight. Any cancerous lump I find has probably been growing for years. Of course I understand that there are exceptions.
If there are research breakthroughs that dramatically increase the value of early detection, I'll rejoice and change my attitude toward screening accordingly. I accept that sooner or later, I'll die of something. It could be breast cancer. It's also possible that I'll die with cancerous changes in my breast (or some other location) that never progressed enough to cause harm.
I won't think less of any woman who continues to get screening mammograms. The weight of public and professional opinion is still on her side.
It's been ten years since my last mammogram. I don't have to wonder whether this will be the year for a false alarm, false reassurance, or discovery of a cancer that might or might not require treatment. I accept the fact that life is uncertain.
I'm grateful for the gift of good health, recognizing that that's what it is: a gift. I will always mourn my sister's untimely death, which took place three years after her diagnosis despite state-of-the-art treatment. If it were in my power, I'd honor her by redirecting the $5 billion this country spends each year on screening mammography to other purposes. I'd direct those sums instead to the study of how breast cancer starts, and what we can do to treat it more effectively.

ZF-3108: make Zend_Log classes iterable + other improvements
Hi, I found some improvements to add to different Zend_Log files.
First, the $event treated in Zend_Log_Writer_Abstract and all its children should be casted to Array in the function definitions ( for safety ).
Second, I think that Zend_Log should be iterable to give back the Writers it has been provided, and additionaly all the writers should be "toStringable" to reflect the name of their own class
Same for Zend_Log_Writer_Mock : it should be recursive Iterable so that a simple foreach loop on it would give back all the messages it's been containing.
All those patches are ready in my local copy and waiting for approvement.
I can as well take care of the other improvements asked for that component, such as ZF-2618 that could lead to a warning show if default timezone has not been set in PHP, ZF-2428 as well....
Let me know.
Hi Julien, I'm reviewing improvements to Zend_Log for 1.8 now. I'll get back to you on the separate suggestions soon, but please remember to create one issue for each feature request in the future. It will make it much easier for us to handle them separately.
Bulk change of all issues last updated before 1st January 2010 as "Won't Fix".
Feel free to re-open and provide a patch if you want to fix this issue.

"I think by law I'm allowed to retain it, but I don't think that that will be prudent," Robinson said. "If I'm elected, then, I think, that at some point after the election I would like to resign from the council. Whether that will be at the first of the year, or soon after, I haven't gotten that far."
Robinson said the workload for both positions is such that he wouldn't like to be doing both for an extended period of time.
Summit County Clerk Kent Jones confirmed that Robinson could legally maintain both his House and Council seats, but added that it could create a conflict of interest.
"It would be his choice to resign the council," Jones said. "I think he would have conflicts if he remains. For example, there may be issues in the legislature that directly relate to the county. He would be looking at it from too many angles."
Because Robinson will have less than two years left on the County Council if he wins the House seat, the county's Democratic party will be responsible for appointing a replacement to the seat.
"The Democratic Party has certain bylaws, and the bylaws say that we either have an election held by the central committee or by the county delegates," Summit County Democratic Chair Glenn Wright said. "The central committee is kind of an obscure body that involves the precinct officers.
A name would more likely be chosen by the 100 or so Summit County Democratic delegates, Wright said. Once the party receives notice that there is a vacancy, they have 30 days to submit a nominee to the County Council.
"The County Council isn't required to accept the nomination, but in a way they are," Wright said. "The state Legislature has made it so the County Council almost can't turn down that person. If the County Council turns down that person, the same name is sent to the governor who appoints the interim person."
State law used to require the party to provide three names and the council was able to choose among them. But in 2011, the Legislature changed the law so that only one name can be provided.
If Robinson resigns from the council, the newly appointed council member will hold the position for Robinson's remaining term of nearly two years.

Vaccines are used to improve your immune system and prevent serious, life-threatening diseases.
Vaccines "teach" your body how to defend itself when germs, such as viruses or bacteria, invade it:
Four types of vaccines are currently available:
For a few weeks after they are born, babies have some protection from germs that cause diseases. This protection is passed from their mother through the placenta before birth. After a short period, this natural protection goes away.
Vaccines help protect against many diseases that used to be much more common. Examples include tetanus, diphtheria, mumps, measles, pertussis (whooping cough), meningitis, and polio. Many of these infections can cause serious or life-threatening illnesses and may lead to lifelong disabilities. Because of vaccines, many of these illnesses are now rare.
Some people worry that vaccines are not safe and may be harmful, especially for children. They may ask their health care provider to wait or even choose not to have the vaccine. But the benefits of vaccines far outweigh their risks.
Scientific studies have shown that vaccines and their components, such as the preservative thimerosal, do not cause autism or ADHD. Based on these studies, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as well as the Institute of Medicine conclude that the benefits of vaccines outweigh their risks.
Other information about risks:
The recommended vaccination (immunization) schedule is updated every 12 months by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Talk to your health care provider about specific immunizations for you or your child. Current recommendations are available at the CDC website: http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/schedules.
The CDC website (http://www.cdc.gov/travel/page/vaccinations.htm) has detailed information on immunizations and other precautions for travelers to other countries. Many immunizations should be received at least one month before travel.
Bring your immunization records with you when you travel internationally. Some countries require this documentation.

Good but not as great as my 10 year old version of this
I failed to figure out from the online description that this item no longer has a zipper to close the entire travel wallet. For about 10 years, I have had a Bosca item very, very similar to this. I have loved it. It has traveled over a million miles with me to about 35 different countries. I have relied on it and often praised its virtues to others. It was extremely durable but has finally failed. I was delighted to buy a replacement. Unfortunately, the new one does not zip shut. This puts the items in the flight attendant wallet at risk of falling out. This is a problem for me--especially during international travel as I can no longer consider it secure. I suppose it was cheaper to make the new item this way compared to the old way. I will try to find a comparable items from some other manufacturer. That is too bad as the new item is otherwise wonderful.

Starting to see some chatter about a nice storm coming through Thursday. What's the scoop from the real weathermen/women/its here?
Exaggeration is a BILLION times worse than understating.

Its don't like being called its.
That's the day I'm moving out of my apartment and relocating for the summer. So a good storm should be fun.
Capped Wednesday, but should break it Thursday. Broad scale setup looks favorable for strong/severe storms with the possibility for all severe modes Thursday pm.
But can't really get into much detail past that especially since it's four days out.
Here's the SPC's thoughts. http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/exper/day4-8/

It's sunny outside now, so I don't see how it could possibly storm two days from now.
I am waiting for Brian Williams to tell me how many millions of people will be impacted/slightly inconvenienced/or knows someone who might have been before I get too concerned. But once that happens, look the **** out because its every man for himself.
So what's the scoop on today?

Running in the rain is the best! In college when it would rain our easy runs became race-pace and it was epic. Nothing better.

News: CGVD2013 is now available!
Natural Resources Canada has released the Canadian Geodetic Vertical Datum of 2013 (CGVD2013), which is now the new reference standard for heights across Canada. This new height reference system is replacing the Canadian Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1928 (CGVD28), which was adopted officially by an Order in Council in 1935. Read more
Geodetic reference systems stem from the need to provide a consistent and integrated reference surface for data analysis. Applications include surveying, mapping, navigation, remote sensing and mineral exploration amongst others. At the national level, NRCan maintains the Canadian Spatial Reference System (CSRS), through the use of the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83CSRS), which is the adopted standard in Canada.
This site provides end-users with the geodetic data and tools they need for a range of commercial and private uses. One of the most popular services is the online CSRS-PPP service, which provides centimetre-accuracy positioning in either NAD83(CSRS) or ITRF using GNSS technologies.

There were random noodles UNDER my GF ginger chicken. Great.
Good service, aware of celiac, consistent good food typical of the chain.
high occurrence of cross contamination.
Food is always great. Menu has a decent amount of options. Staff is always incredibly helpful and understanding. Unfortunately the food costs a lot of money if you want to try a few different dishes, but are good nonetheless.
Fried rice and Mongolian beef were delicious! Portions are huge, had leftovers even after splitting it with my husband. Flourless chocolate cake was an extra treat!
have a dedicated GF menu along side regular menu. even has a couple desert choices. good eats. riendly, GF aware staff. reasonable prices.
If you are dairy free too then don't bother. The only thing they would serve me was steamed veggies, brown rice, egg drop soup or. A salad. Boring! They marinade their meat in milk apparently.
Very gf friendly!
Always good food. Confident in eating there. Love that they have separate plates so you know it is a gluten-free meal you are getting.
Fair amount of options and even the server (who was new) seemed to have a decent amount of knowledge about gluten free foods. The food was good. I'll likely go back.
I trust PFChangs GF foods. That is always a place I know I can eat GF. Went there while on vacation. Portions are large. Many options are available. Something for everyone.
They have wonderful gluten food,even have fried options. They are also meticulously careful about gluten free,I have never had a problem at any pf changs.
Although PF Chang's is a chain, they do a very good job with gluten free. They seem to have more and more options every time I go there. One thing I wish they had more of was gluten free vegetarian options. There is really only one gf vegetarian entree option and some sides. Love their chicken lettuce wraps and Mongolian beef entree. So nice to have a soup option too!
17455 Biscayne Boulevard, North Miami Beach, FL 33160
Love the food. Lettuce wraps and pork fried rice are my favorites! Wish they had entire menu gluten free!
7894 N Blackstone Ave., Fresno, CA 93720
We either eat here or get takeout several times a month. It's the safest restaurant we've found for my celiac disease in the area. The staff has always been super courteous and even anxious to make sure there's zero cross contamination for me. The food is always great too!
2420 West Happy Valley Road, Phoenix, AZ 85085
Still the best and safest gf restaurant around
2626 Miamisburg-Centerville Rd., Dayton, OH 45459
It's my birthday. My husband wanted to take me out. We researched and he called the manager before making reservations...and we went to PF Changs. I ordered the shrimp in lobster sauce....the waitress is super attentive and sweet. I'm approximately three bites away from finishing my plate when the head chef and the waitress come out and tell me the new cook used the water to wash the regular noodles in the sauce to make my dish. Our entire meal was free, they profusely apologized, the waitress cried, the manager gave me a free gluten free dessert to take home, and gave me her card to tell me they were reporting the incident and to call if I got sick. 30 minutes later and I'm incapacitated with stomach cramps and anxiety. I look like I'm 9 months pregnant even though I'm a size 6. I am I AM IN SO MUCH PAIN. I took my glutenade before eating and my digestive enzymes immediately afterwards to no avail. I did everything I was supposed to do and someone's carelessness is destroying my health. THEY NEED TO LEARN THIS IS NOT AN ALLERGY!!! This is an autoimmune disease!!
201 San Jacinto Boulevard, Austin, TX 78701
It is consistent and generally safe. Everything you would expect from a chain.
5488 South Padre Island Drive #5001, Corpus Christi, TX 78411
They go out of their way to make sure us gf folks are taken care of. Everything from appetizers to dessert!
3667 South Las Vegas Boulevard, Las Vegas, NV 89109
This was one of the best places to eat here in Vegas, especially if you have celiacs! They have special plates for the gluten free food and have a separate spot for the kitchen! It was such a great experience because the water was so knowledgable and the food was delicious!
1190 Farrow Parkway, Myrtle Beach, SC 29577
Great food and attentive staff.
6801 Fayetteville Street, Durham, NC 27713
Fantastic menu and great food. Celiac safe!
3405 Nicholasville Road, Lexington, KY 40503
A bit pricey but oh so worth it!!! Delicious!!!
1201 Lake Woodlands Dr #301, The Woodlands, TX 77380
Server and restaurant were excellent with celiac. They use a special wok for all GF meals. They use special plates to indicate the different meals. No problems with getting gluten by mistake. However, a non GF meal was also sereved on a GF plate. Not all restaurant staff is aware.
6000 North Terminal Parkway, Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), College Park, GA 30337
Has several gf entrees. My entree was huge and delicious. It's located inside the airport and was a nice place to rest between flights.
910 Highland Colony Parkway, Ridgeland, MS 39157
Friendly manager. They even use different shaped plates for gluten free orders! the gluten free menu is so good my family usually orders off it and we share family style.
9435 Civic Center Blvd. Streets of Westchester Bldg. 1, West Chester, OH 45069
This PF Chang's is amazing. I eat here often and I love that everyone has knowledge of the gluten free menu. I always know I'm safe when I eat here!
910 Highland Colony Parkway, Ridgeland, MS 39157
Never had a reaction here, great food! Staff brings gf food out on specially marked plate
910 Highland Colony Parkway, Ridgeland, MS 39157
My wife has Celiac and we've eaten here on a regular basis (twice per month, both done-in & take-out) without her getting sick. They have a solid selection of GF menu options, and several are very tasty. Our favorite is the Chang's spicy chicken with GF egg-drop soup. Staff knowledge of GF/Celiac can be spotty, but if you ask the right questions & emphasize the importance, they get it right.
10309 Destiny USA Dr, Syracuse, NY 13204
Never had an issue here and they now have a gf dessert! They have a separate prep area in the kitchen. Nice to be able to eat Chinese food again.
110 South Jordan Creek Parkway, West Des Moines, IA 50266
Excellent variety of delicious fresh Asian inspired dishes. I love the Mongolian Beef and Shanghai Cucumbers. Gluten Free options are on main menu. Make sure you ASK for the items gluten free as they have the same items on regular entrees.
12090 Jefferson Ave, Newport News, VA 23606
Love that I've finally found GF Chinese food!!! In complete heaven!
7135 East Camelback Road #101, Scottsdale, AZ 85251
We just had an excellent meal. I had the spicy chicken and my husband had Mongolian beef. He ordered from the gluten free menu so we could share. The waitress was great and the staff knowledgeable. We'll be back again.
2801 Pacific Avenue, Atlantic City, NJ 08401
Traveling for work: food was great! Wait staff was very educated on a gluten-free allergy. They also have a lot of options.
Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW), Worldgateway Place, Romulus, MI 48242
Had a great experience here. I'm celiac and did not get sick. A bit pricey, but hey, you're in an airport. Great to have a safe place at Detroit airport.
3667 South Las Vegas Boulevard, Las Vegas, NV 89109
Very very good. I have celiac and no reaction. They have a gluten free section in the menu. Service was slow, but food was really good.
9435 Civic Center Blvd. Streets of Westchester Bldg. 1, West Chester, OH 45069
Love this place! First time having Chinese since diagnosed gluten intolerant. Delicious!
820 Eastview Mall, Victor, NY 14564
Not Autoimmune Paleo allergy friendly at all. Their only real solution was a steamed vegetable plate. No meats available a la Carte without allergens already added.
101 South Green Valley Parkway, Henderson, NV 89052
Always a safe and delicious place to eat. Distinct gluten free menu.
1400 Glades Road, Boca Raton, FL 33431
For some reason I always have a reaction when I eat here. My reactions range in severity from minor inflammation to painful headache. I can't say for certain whether gluten is the issue, but it seems there are definitely some inflammatory ingredient included in the dishes - perhaps peanut oil or unknown preservatives.
10114 Jollyville Rd., Austin, TX 78759
Good was great and so was the service.
1245 Worcester Street #4008, Natick, MA 01760
I have eaten here numerous times and never got sick although you have to be vigilant. They did once serve me a gluten version of what I ordered but I was aware of the fact the gluten free food is served on different plates. The food is very good, a little on the pricey side for the serving size.
4200 Conroy Road, Orlando, FL 32839
Very good the gf pork fried rice and Mongolian beef are excellent! The gf steak and broccoli lacked in flavor. Service was mediocre and atmosphere was nothing to write home about. Second visit we got the Mongolian beef and pork fried rice to go and the rice had a little less flavor but still yummy! I have celiacs and did not have a reaction on either visit and they even packed gluten free soy sauce with my to go order!
476 Smith Haven Mall, Lake Grove, NY 11755
Gluten free menu/options. Very good.
2065 Apple Orchard Avenue, Grand Rapids, MI 49525
Very accomodating, they can print you a menu based on your allergies and make sure to the best of their abilities that you are safe from allergens.
1200 Del Monte Center, Monterey, CA 93940
Love it every time! Very comforting to have your meal served and know they remembered to make it gluten free because of the different plate.
26001 Chagrin Blvd., Beachwood, OH 44122
I got glutened at this P.F. Chang's. I had full blown celiac disease symptoms within 2 hours of eating at the P.F. Chang's in Beachwood, Ohio area on Chagrin Blvd.
326 Wilshire Blvd., Santa Monica, CA 90401
Very strict celiac. Get sick very quickly with the smallest contamination. Don't trust the other review, I eat here regularly with zero contamination. They take a lot of precautions. Mention you are celiac and they take care of the rest.
2237 Deming Way, Middleton, WI 53562
Our son has celiac. They were wonderful! The host and server were very reassuring and helpful when they explained the process they use to avoid cross contamination. They have separate areas and utensils/pans for food prep to avoid cross contamination. Our server was very careful when he brought out our food. The restaurant uses special plates for gluten free food. They have gluten free soy sauce available upon request. Our son had no reaction after eating there. We will return with no reservations.
Periferico Sur 4132 Piso 1 Local 14, Álvaro Obregón, Jardines del Pedregal, 01900 Ciudad de México, D.F., Mexico 01900
it looks delicious but i can not eat
10300 Little Patuxent Parkway #3020, Columbia, MD 21044
Always had a good and safe experience here. Had a waitress who was very familiar with celiac and made sure my food was safe. When the wrong lettuce wraps came out she sent them back before even coming to our table. I really appreciated it.
2801 W Big Beaver Rd, Troy, MI 48084
Wonderful gluten free menu but have tried twice and been sick twice. 😞
1 Galleria Drive, Buffalo, NY 14225
I've eaten here 10-12 times the past 10 years. Never had any problem and I'm sensitive celiac. I would know if gluttened within first half hour, usually just a few minutes. The food choices are varied and delicious. My wife who is Not gf prefers the gf lettuce wraps compared to those off the regular menu. I've also ordered take out several times to eat back home in Jamestown NY. It has been tasty and just as safe.
110 South Jordan Creek Parkway, West Des Moines, IA 50266
awesome food, great staff
6741 Kingston Pike, Knoxville, TN 37919
Great GF menu and they have GF soy sauce which is a plus
8108 West Gage Boulevard, Kennewick, WA 99336
Our waiter was very helpful and took my concerns seriously. Food was hot and tasted great. I have celiac and am very cautious when I eat out.
820 Eastview Mall, Victor, NY 14564
they offer a variety on their gluten free menu. it's quite a drive for us but worth it! GF soy sauce and even gf dessert.
326 Wilshire Blvd., Santa Monica, CA 90401
hat einige gluten free speisen. vorspeise war super, hauptgang (nudeln) okay. das essen stand in 10min nach der bestellung auf dem tisch, alles zusammen...leider.
10300 Little Patuxent Parkway #3020, Columbia, MD 21044
I love P.F. Chang's BEFORE I went gluten-free and AFTER I became gluten-free. One of my friends and I went to P.F.Chang's this past weekend and my experience was wonderful. I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease over a year ago which has made dining out challenging. I was well taken care of by Salam (server), Christine (bartender) and the manager. When I spoke to Salam about my dining needs, she took it seriously and elevated it to the manager. The manager came and spoke with me and was very kind. I was able to order for the gluten-free menu and all the food was great. Additionally, I wanted to engage in the spirits and was able to do so. The bartender, Christine was knowledgeable about what drinks did or did not have gluten. She made two different drinks for me and they were great!!!! I cannot say how happy I was about my dining experience. I did not get sick at all while I was there or 24 hours later. This is why they got 5 stars from me.
3545 U.S. 1, Princeton, NJ 08540
yes they have a gf section on their menu so 2 stars for that but out of 5 times eating there and ordering the same gf Cantonese Lemon Chicken I think 1 time it didn't feel like I was ripping apart dried out and hard crusted pieces of chicken. I had to leave half the crust on the plate because I couldn't chew it. The lettuce wraps are generally good though I didn't order that tonight. I sent food back for being so died out in the past but we have so little choice in the area for gf Chinese food ave I was starving. I hoped for the best and was so disappointed again.
14135 South La Grange Road, Orland Park, IL 60462
Great food and desserts! So I have changed my rating from a 5 to a 1. Order came out wrong. No manager ever came over. I'm so done with eating out!!
1978 East 21st Street, Tulsa, OK 74114
We were so happy to find another restaurant that serves great gf food. We've eaten here 2 times with no issues after. Staff is very helpful with special diet needs.
5488 South Padre Island Drive #5001, Corpus Christi, TX 78411
I used to eat here a lot with no problems, they're supposed to have a dedicated kitchen space and be celiac friendly. Recently I ate here and had the WORST reaction I've had in.. Forever, after eating the fried rice. My food came out a little too quickly (usually gfree stuff takes longer in order to prepare it safely) with my non-gfree friends order. My reaction was so bad that it started a few hours after I left. I was extremely disappointed, so I don't think I'll be returning at least for a long time. I made sure to email them and let them know, hopefully they fix things! Just be aware and emphasize you need a safe meal! This place does have a lot of great options, maybe I just had one bad experience.

Back in July, Donna Price ( Regional Sales Manager Sports and Groups for Accent Inns) and a few friends had a special opportunity to visit the SOS Children's Village, Ennerdale just outside of Johannesburg. This is a look at their trip and experiences….
It was a beautifully kept place for almost 200 children who come from different circumstances (orphaned or lack of family care). They integrate the children in the community in Schooling, projects and prepare the kids to be self sufficient once they leave the village. The children were well taken care of in a home-style setting. In addition to the children, they also have small homes for the retired house mothers or "aunties". We met a couple of them – one 62 years and one 86 years old. (more…)

May 8, 2013
TUCSON, Ariz. – Arizona rising junior Ronni Lewis (San Jose, Calif.) was one of 48 athletes selected to participate in this summer's U.S. Women's National A2 Team Program, USA Volleyball announced on Tuesday.
The U.S. Women's National Volleyball Senior A2 program is available to athletes with collegiate eligibility remaining for the 2013 season. This program is scheduled to take place in Dallas from June 25 to July 4 in conjunction with the USA Volleyball Girls' Junior National Championships. The roster contains 48 athletes from 29 different universities.
The A2 program coaching staff will include Andy Banachowski, Mike Hebert, Ruth Nelson and Bill Neville who will serve as team head coaches. Assistant coaches with the A2 program are Ashley Allen, Terry Condon, Linda Hampton and Marci Sanders. Technical coordinators/assistant coaches for the A2 program are Kevin Hitt, Nicki Holmes, Eugene Tichenor and Jay Van Vark.
During the six-day training period from June 25-30, the 48 athletes will be divided into four equal teams that will compete in pool play against the other A2 program teams and the top four Premier Volleyball League (PVL) teams. After pool play, the four A2 program teams and PVL teams will split into their own divisions to determine the medalist teams in the competition.
The athletes were selected via the U.S. Women's National Volleyball Team Open Tryouts held Feb. 22-24 at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo. The tryout attracted a record 240 participants, 33 more than the previous best mark set in 2012. Athletes selected to both the A2 program and the U.S. Women's Junior National Volleyball Team (WJNT) could only participate in the WJNT program with the 2013 FIVB Volleyball Women's Junior World Championship as the priority event.
Lewis had a breakout sophomore season for the Wildcats last year as she was just one of three Wildcats to play in every set during the 2012 season. She started the season as a defensive specialist but played much of the latter part of the year at libero as she finished the season with 313 digs, 40 assists and 17 service aces. Lewis had 13 matches with double-figure digs including four matches with 20 or more digs. She earned her first start of the season at libero against No. 5 UCLA (11/2) and helped the Wildcats to a sweep of the Bruins with a match-high 20 digs. The San Jose, Calif. native led the way in Arizona's thrilling comeback victory at Oregon State (11/9) with 21 digs. She also had 21 digs in a victory over Colorado (11/16) and recorded a career-high 23 digs in the season finale at Arizona State (11/23).
Lewis marks the fourth Wildcat to be named to the U.S. A2 Team since its existence. She joins Whitney Dosty, Paige Weber and Madi Kingdon, who were all multiple year members of the squad.

We've seen plus-size women dance, shop for wedding dresses and go to boot camp, but reality television has never taken us into the world of plus-size fashion, a quietly booming industry far removed from the opulent world of Dior, Chanel and Louboutin. That's where TLC's new reality show Big Sexy comes in. The show, premiering Aug. 30 at 10 p.m., follows five beautiful, self-assured women trying to bring plus-size fashion into the mainstream. Refreshingly, Big Sexy isn't about changing bodies, but rather celebrating curves.
Before the premiere, MORE caught up with four of the show's stars—here, they offer tips for developing a confident personal style.
Tiffany Bank, 29 - Model
Dressing to Slim: You have to realize what body shape you have, first and foremost. I'm heavy in my stomach and I have a small waist, so I wear belts around my waist to give myself an hourglass figure. A lot of times, women buy stuff that just fits. I think women are kind of afraid to step outside the box and go outside their comfort zone. Don't just buy things that fit, buy things that are well put-together.
Trends to Embrace: I am very bohemian, so I like maxi dresses paired with a really hot fedora and lots of bangles and chunky jewelry. Plus-size women need to wear more colors. There's nothing more beautiful. Black is really sexy, but the more color the better. You just have to find clothing that flatters you and turn it up with some color.
Staying Confident: Most of the time, if you feel good, then you look good. It's really important to do things that make you happy—whether it's wearing really hot lipstick for no reason or having brunch with your girlfriends. If you walk into a room and tell yourself you're the most beautiful woman there, that confidence is contagious.
Look in the mirror. Pick out a few things that you really enjoy and think about those things on a daily basis. I say three things every single day: Just breathe, this too shall pass and just keep swimming. In a sea of 'No,' all you need is one 'Yes,' so just keep swimming.
Changing the Industry: We need to see more diverse models in the media and advertising. Why not use models and real women? I'm not talking about a real-woman campaign or a special shape issue of a magazine. I'm talking about a Gap ad. Use models that reflect your true customers.
Leslie Medlik, 34 - Stylist
Dieting: I spent a lot of my life going from one diet to the next. And they worked. Sometimes I lost ten pounds, sometimes I lost 50 pounds. But I was gaining the weight back, too. Last time I was on a diet, I was miserable. All I could focus on was what I was going to eat and when I was going to work out. I wasn't living my life anymore.
Dressing to Look Thinner: I don't encourage women to do that, ever. For me, it's not about trying to change the body you have. You should really focus on the body you have and what is great about it. You can still look beautiful and wear an amazing outfit without trying to look slimmer.
Bad Trends: I'm having a hard transition to the skinny belt. It's hard to pull that off because it's not always doing anything for you. We're adding belts just for the sake of adding belts.
Staying Confident: Before, when I would get ready for work, I would look in the mirror and find something about myself that I hated, whether it was my arms, my stomach or my face. I don't do that anymore. I look at myself everyday and tell myself that I do love myself and this is me. Throw away the nonsense that your body isn't good enough. Know that you are a person who is more than the way that you look. Your body is beautiful as it exists.
Audrey Curry, 24 – Makeup Artist, Aspiring Designer
Dressing to Slim: Always wear clothing that fits—never something that's too small because that's going to make you look larger. Loose clothing will make you look insecure. If you have a low cut neck, you can't have a short skirt. A lot of plus size women wear black—I'm one of those, because it's easy to accessorize it if you want to wear a funky hat or chunky jewelry. Tailoring always makes plus size women look better. Stay away from woven clothing and always go to knit clothing because it stretches. Shoulder pads are something plus size women are afraid of, but they can slim your body down by balancing out your body and hips.
Bad Trends: Stay away from white leggings or neon leggings of any kind. A lot of people also do the deconstructed, messy, shredded look wrong. They think if you throw on something messy and dirty you can make it work. You can't.
Staying Confident: I present myself in a confident way because I spend time getting ready and making myself look the best I can look. When I go out, I already feel good about myself. Don't walk into a room with your head down. Stand tall. I'm very positive and I always think about what I'm going to do that day and how it's going to go smoothly.
Nikki Gomez, 34 - Model
Changing the Industry: There are a lot of preconceived notions about plus-size women—that we're not active, that we don't take care of ourselves. Photographers will shoot skinny girls in a certain way, but they won't shoot plus-size girls that way. He doesn't think it's worth his time. You have to look for people that are a little more open minded to get the results that you want in this industry.
Dressing in a Flattering Way: It's important to know how to dress your body, no matter what size you are. If you have amazing legs, show off your legs. If you have a beautiful complexion, wear colors to enhance your features and you'll find the confidence.
Don't be afraid to wear color. This whole black-is-slimming thing is old news. Shapewear is important, even for thin women. Stay true to your style. I do love the new geeky chic kind of look, the big black-rimmed glasses. I'm a big fan of vintage clothing—I love feminine clothing and being really girly.
Bad Trends: For some reason, people don't get dressed anymore. People go out in their pajamas to run errands. It's important to take pride in yourself. Get dressed. There's something to be said about how you look and how you present yourself to the world.
Staying Confident: It's about learning to love yourself. When you dress yourself with confidence, it shows. You can walk into a bar with the most beautiful person next to you but if they're not confident and you are, you're going to get more attention.

Cool, sunny and windy Thursday in Volusia and Flagler
Published: Thursday, March 21, 2013 at 6:41 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, March 21, 2013 at 7:27 a.m.
A sunny and cool Thursday with high winds is expected in Volusia and Flagler counties.
Skies will be sunny but temperatures won't even reach 70 in much of the area. A northwest wind 10 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph will occur. Overnight, skies will be mostly clear while temperatures plunge into the mid-40s.
Expect more of the same Friday, with clear skies and temperatures reaching about 70. It should warm up more for the weekend, with temperatures climbing back into the low 80s, but the chance for rain will increase as well.
For Thursday, a small craft advisory is in effect for offshore waters through the morning and operators of small crafts are advised to exercise caution. Winds around 20 knots will produce choppy waves in the open Atlantic Ocean and seas will build up to 7 feet offshore before subsiding in the afternoon.
Humidity will fall below critical levels across the interior and coastal areas of Volusia and Flagler, heightening the danger of wildfires spreading.
Volusia County lifeguards report surf temperatures of 56 degrees with swells of less than a foot at more than 12-second intervals.
Roads patrolled by the Florida Highway Patrol were free of crashes, according to the agency's pre-dawn reports.
