Give Social Security a RAISE!
Republicans and their Wall Street cronies can no longer claim that Social Security expansion is a fringe issue. With Democratic leadership behind this bill, it is clear that YOU are making YOUR VOICE heard in Washington!
The RAISE Act would:
To: All members of the U.S. Senate
The Retirement and Income Security Enhancement Act of 2014, or RAISE Act, introduced by Senators Begich (D-AK) and Murray (D-WA), increase benefits for many widows, widowers and divorced spouses; and extend benefits to children of retired, deceased and disabled workers and pay for it by having millionaires and billionaires pay the same rate as the rest of us.
I urge you to become a co-sponsor of the RAISE Act today and help pass the first piece of Social Security expansion legislation in the U.S. Senate.

This is a letter that was sent to Leader Pelosi expressing the Alliance's opposition to a provision in the proposed House rules that would prohibit reallocation between the Social Security trust funds. This is a direct attack on the Social Security beneficiaries. Republicans are including this provision, as well as the following harmful provisions in their proposed House Rules for the 114th Congress: Read Letter
Dynamic Scoring – direct the Congressional Budget Office and the Joint Committee on Tax to use this method of scoring. This method is a way to cook the books and make tax cuts appear attractive. In essence, it could make tax cuts appear to grow the economy and therefore not increase deficits. For more on dynamic scoring visit: http://www.cbpp.org/cms/?fa=view&id=3598
Social Security Fairness – Repeal the GPO/WEP
This is a vital issue. Laws prevented you from earning Social Security benefits while you were working as a public servant, and when you retired, other laws prevented you from collecting the benefits you had paid for in other work or had earned as a dependent. This is SO wrong. Tell them your story. As they look at Social Security this year, the offsets must be repealed.

Social Security Works for Rhode Island
"We can never insure one-hundred percent of the population against one-hundred percent of the hazards and vicissitudes of life. But we have tried to frame a law which will give some measure of protection to the average citizen and to his family against the loss of a job and against poverty-ridden old age. This law, too, represents a cornerstone in a structure which is being built but is by no means complete. It is a structure intended to lessen the force of possible future depressions. It will act as a protection to future Administrations against the necessity of going deeply into debt to furnish relief to the needy. The law will flatten out the peaks and valleys of deflation and of inflation. It is, in short, a law that will take care of human needs and at the same time provide for the United States an economic structure of vastly greater soundness."
—Franklin D. Roosevelt, August 14, 1935

The owners of the Zzest restaurants in Rochester are planning two new restaurants and bars in the old Chicago Great Western railroad depot, on the Zumbro River just across from downtown.
The historic depot most recently was occupied by El Loro, a Mexican restaurant, which closed last winter. The 115-year-old building at 20 Fourth St. SE was bought by Med City Restaurant Group in January for $800,000. Among its attractions: the wrap-around deck for outdoor seating, with one of the best views in town.
LeeAnn Zubay, owner of Zzest Cafe & Bar on 16th Street Southwest and the Zzest Lunch Counter and Market in the First Avenue Food Court downtown, says on her website that the family-owned company will lease the depot and open two new businesses there. In October or November, the plan is to open Porch, a restaurant featuring "urban farm fare," on the main level. In early winter, they'll open Cellar on the lower level, featuring craft cocktails, "dynamic, chef-driven" food and a "gentleman's club" vibe.
The restaurants will be led by Jason Zubay, Lindsay Zubay and chef Justin Schoville.
Also on Zzest's to-do list: moving the lunch counter and market from its current space to the former Dunn Brothers Coffee and Hot Pot spaces near the front of the Food Court. The owners of Dunn Brothers and Hot Pot told the Post-Bulletin's Answer Man last week that they decided not to renew their lease and are looking for a new spot downtown.

So check it out... been re-watching S4 and have some new thoughts
Not like this is really a secret, but something I noticed and nobody has discussed recently
We see in 2 different S4 episodes where Miles was able to "read the mind" of living people, same way he does with the dead.
Most people remember the dead part, but do you guys remember this:
- S4x08 Meet Kevin Johnson... Michael/Kevin meets Miles, who said he "knew" Kevin was not his real name. Miles laughed at Michael's shock and said not to worry, as 80 percent of the people on the boat were lying about something.
- S4x13 No Place Like Home (pt.3) ... Miles tells Charlotte he is surprised that she wants to leave the Island, after all that time she spent "trying to get back" to it. Charlotte asks what he means, but Miles is evasive.
I've seen the question asked why did the freighter mission need to have a ghost whisperer ... Well now I think it's pretty clear... There are more to his powers than reading dead people. He can also read the minds of the Living ! ! ! ... Maybe like a "Nemesis Detector" ?? ? ? ?
Like I said, not a great revelation if you pay attention, but it's so easy to forget stuff with this show over the years

Attention Baby Boomers: The faster you walk, the longer you might live, according to new research that has confirmed a link between faster walking speeds and longer life expectancy. Talk about an easy natural health solution! It turns out the pace of your gait is a good indicator of overall health if you're 65 or older.
"A new analysis of walking speed studies shows that—down to the tenth of a meter per second—an older person's pace, along with their age and gender, can predict their life expectancy just as well as the complex battery of other health indicators." (source: ScientificAmerican.com)
Imagine—your doctor could simply time you on a treadmill for a few seconds and give you an accurate prediction of how many more years you have left. This new research confirms that such an easy test could be a legitimate clinical tool—one that is easy, cheap and painless.
Along with simply providing an indication of one's overall health and vitality, the walking pace test could also be useful in determining whether or not a person is a candidate for follow-up tests and more invasive screenings for things like cancer or heart disease.
"The new analysis, published online January 4 in JAMA, The Journal of the American Medical Association, found that walking speed turned out to be a consistent predictor of survival length across age, race and height categories, but it was especially useful in zeroing in on life expectancy for those who still live and get around independently and for those older than 75."
Don't think you can just head out to your sidewalk and time yourself for half a block. While the test itself is simple enough, it does need to be conducted in a controlled environment by a professional. And researchers noted that to make the most out of this new test, walking pace over time should be recorded to give one's doctor a better overview of any significant change in pace that might trigger further tests.
The researchers were also quick to point out that purposely increasing your walking speed may not do any good. After all, walking is actually quite a complex action biologically speaking. Your personal pace is self-selected and it intricately pieces together all the necessary systems and functions that are needed to successfully place one foot in front of the other.
So while consciously speeding up may not have a positive effect down the line in these biological systems (more research is needed), walking has proven to be a very beneficial exercise for maintaining best natural health and overall longevity...which is what this is all about anyway, right?
Enjoy your walk!

Hi Suzan,
I have not seen a study linking flaxseed to reduced thyroid function. Flaxseed contains fatty acids that are beneficial to glandular health. There is concern with soy products interfering with thyroid function. However, never hurts to discuss with your physician to see if he/she knows of a connection.
All the best,

AZ Governor Jan Brewer Signs Booze-Friendly Bills Into Law
With a few strokes of a pen, it became official: On a 115-degree day, partygoers in Arizona parks can exchange a refreshing cold beer for a steaming plastic cup of merlot.
Governor Jan Brewer Friday signed House Bill 2441, which clarifies crucial language in a statute that affects office party-planning committees across the state.
Current law states that during events where groups have recieved a permit to drink alcohol in public places like parks or fairgrounds, they can only drink beer -- but wine is not specifically included in the permit language.
Well, things have gone in favor of the grape and wine is now a mentioned in the new language as a right of permitted public partiers from Tucson to Flagstaff.

Glendale City Councilwoman Yvonne Knaack, who brought the problem to the attention of the state Legislature back in February, told members of the House Commerce Committee that excluding wine from parties hurt fundraising efforts of charities she works with.
"Well, as you all know, times have changed," she told the committee, "wine is popular."
Indeed, wine is popular. So popular, in fact, that since February, the Legislature had to discuss this bogus bill five times before sending it to the governor.
As if to keep the party rolling, Governor Jan and the Brew Crew also signed Senate Bill 1266, which makes it illegal for employers to withhold workers compensation money for employees hurt on the job while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
So here's how it breaks down: As of Friday, it's legal to go to one of Yvonne Knaack's ragers in the park, fill up on a warm box of Chiraz, then go to work, fall down a flight of stairs, and collect government-mandated payments from your boss for your broken ankle and time off.

My Indy 500 Wedding Cake
I married this past May 15 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. This was my "race themed" cake. Inside the cake was dark chocolate and vanilla checkerboard with raspberry filling. It had to be transported from Nashville, TN to Indianapolis. It is a miraculous act of God that this cake ever got finished. Note to self: NEVER do your own wedding cake. The orchids were used to represent the winner's wreath. It was a lovely wedding in a private suite at the track.

Unfortunately, OHWTO didn't have Spellbound Woods stocked in oil form, so I got the solid scent – which may not actually be a bad thing, mind you. I've never used a solid scent before!
Of course I'm going to start with Spellbound Woods! I've heard so many great things about Angela's version (which is discontinued), that I just have to try! The notes are listed as: A blend of Vanilla, Sandalwood, Amber, Cedarwood and the barest hint of a light Floral on the dry down. This is a solid scent in an oval tube and it raises and lowers just like chapstick. The formula is creamy, soft and silky. It rubs in nicely and leaves just this wonderful soft scent in its wake! Amazing! I put it on my pulse point on the inside of my wrists, then rubbed them together. Seriously, this scent is super swoon-worthy! It's soft, slightly sweet, with a wonderful woody base to it. The florals add to some of the sweetness and lift it up a touch, but it's all about that vanilla, amber, and wood! Truly beautiful! I get the hype now – and I need more!
The Doctor Who fan in me wouldn't let me pass up the scent Time Lord (notes: Aged Cedar and Sandalwood, Spiced Vanilla, Teak, Petitgrain, and Cardamom, with whispers of Rose, Oud, and Ginger.) This smells like the 11th doctor to me. Though I know very little of old Who (I know bad me!), so I could be wrong. This is … well … timeless. It's old, very old, like 900 years old. It has an antique smell to it. But not that dusty attic antique, but one that has been polished and loved and displayed through the ages. This does lean masculine in my opinion. The spices in this are soft and not overpowering. This scent is very, very well blended and really awesome in that it captures the timelessness of Time Lords.
And because I've been on a violet kick lately, I picked up a dram of Violette with notes of: Wood Violets, Leather, and Honeycomb. Hmm in the dram I get that new leather smell and I don't usually dig new leather. Whew! On my skin it goes to a softer, more supple leather scent. The violets are soft, silky, and on the edge of being powdery. The honeycomb isn't extremely noticeable. I was hoping more for a beeswax, dusty type scent out of it, but it doesn't detract. It might be adding a touch of sweetness to the mix. It's a very nice scent, and I never would've thought to put violets and leather together, however I don't believe this one is for me.
Lastly, I received two samples of solid scents. One is Mermaid (Salt water, linden blossoms, muguet, carnation, white musk, with a base of driftwood and oakmoss) and the other is Beach Bum (Salt air, tuberose blooms, coconut, sweetgrass, tanning lotion, sand, sea, and sun).
Mermaid is up first and initial sniff gives a sweet blast of linden blossoms and white musk. Very clean and bright! On my skin the salt water comes out as does the muguet. It honestly smells like there is a citrus note, like a bright yellow lemon, but that could be something else. This is bright and clean and fresh smelling!
Beach Bum is different, still clean but the tuberrose is prominent on first sniff. That tanning lotion … LOL! It's so true to life. Hawaiian Life that is! The coconut isn't very strong, more like it's in your drink next to you instead of on your skin. This is bright, yet lazy. Perfect for lounging on the sand and soaking up the sun!

I know ideal would be to have matching underwear but I'm in college so I can't afford any fancy stuff and when you're my size you kinda take what you can get.
The thing is that my panty size is extra small which not all stores have. Sometimes I can wear small but often it's just too lose. For bras I would need 30D or 32D which is really hard to get too. I sometimes take 34D or even 36D Because they are easier to get but they don't fit well and if they come in a set with panties they are usually in medium or large.
So is not having really cute, matching underwear a turn off?
Guys do you care much for a girl's underwear?
I know ideal would be to have matching underwear but I'm in college so I can't afford any fancy stuff and when you're my size you kinda take what you can get.
Have an opinion?

Doesn't matter really. Yeah, it's hot when the clothes come off and she's wearing cute panties or sexy lingerie. But, for me at least, it's an area where things can only become more positive, not negative...the exception being maybe it they're old, stained, torn, etc...that is a little gross.10|12|0
Doesn't matter to men...it's about getting them off that matters. It's more about how YOU feel in what you buy. That's what makes you sexy32|12|0
OK who's the a**hole who went and downvoted everybody...just for that I'm going to upvote everybody that I can

Why do you speak for men, instead of just for yourself. In my experience most men do care about a girl's underwear. Everyone is different, there is no single answer for what men like.
Tell that to the 3 people who uppied me
not a turn off. I do like matching sets. I more like colors that are bright and what they are made outta. I enjoy silk and satin more.10|11|0
Not at all. Panties are panties. We are happy just to see you in them. Panties are simply hot regardless if matching or not. Hope this helped.00|00|0
I would love for a girl to wear a bra!00|00|0
I love bras so I would love for a girl to have some! But don't spend too much00|00|0
Well if a guys looking at it I'm imagining its nots gonna stay on too long.. So I doubt any guy would care;P10|11|0
I like thongs or boy shorts.00|01|0
What Girls Said 3
I wouldn't think it would matter, as they just want them to come off! However you might be wearing the wrong bra size. If you are 30d, then you can wear 32c or 34b, which is a common size and very easy to find. You should not be wearing 34-36d as those are much too big (unless your original bra size is also wrong). I used to work at lasenza and its pretty easy to find cheap underwear in xs. A good way to get a " matching" set is to go for. Solid color, like black on bottom, and then you can fin lots of bras with details like black bows etc. that way you can mix and match to get a bunch of sets10|10|1
No I need a D cup, 34C or 32 is a bit too wide around my back but my boobs not really fit into the cups. As I said, in some stores 32C is fine but in most it's not. I haven't really tried 34b but even by just looking at them I'd say they're much too small.
I had my size measured professionally, so I hope it's correct
- Show AllShow Less
Well I don't know online calculators give me very different results too but those are ridcoulous.. They say I should wear a 32H or 32J.
My frame measurment is 29 and my bust measurment would be 38, if that is any help.
I thought the way it goes that the 30 or 32 relates the circumference under your boobs and the cup size to size of your boobs. How can 30D and 32C be the same then?
The actual cup of a 30d is the same as a 32c. So with an adjustable bra you can make the 32 tighter around to fit more like a 30d, as the cups are the same
I agree with the other girl. You bra sizes are all messed up. Are you sure they're correct? There's no way they fit nicely21|10|0
I had them measured professionally and if I can get a bra in 30 or 32D they fit great. I go with that measurment but with most online calculators I get way different results thoughlike 32H or 32J. My frame measurements are 29 inch and my bust measures 38inch
I can never find matching sets to fit, and no guy seems to mind to be honest.. One even found it amusing how un-matching some combinations were! He liked to hurry up and take clothes off so he could see what they were that time!... Then again, he was odd :p
Still, don't worry about it..

Mesopotamia in 36 Hours
Uruk to Sippar on a budget!
Hammurabi's Bablyon http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Hammurabi%27s_Ba...
Mesopotamia is known as the cradle of civilization. For the extreme traveler who wants to contemplate "where it all began", Mesopotamia is an ideal vacation spot. This 36 hour experience will take you from Ancient Ur north to Sippar. You'll experience a well developed craft beer culture, a strong luxury good trade and plenty of time for experiencing the cities of ancient Mesopotamia from the extensive river system of the Tigris and Euphrates!
4 p.m.
1. Ziggurat of Ur.
Ur, near today's Tell el-Muqayyar, Iraq was once located on the Euphrates River. One of the largest cities of the ancient world, Ur boasted a population of nearly 65,000 in the 2nd millennium BCE. Start your weekend off right by paying homage to the local goddess Nanna. Errected under the leadership of King Ur-Namu, the Ziggurat of Ur is the center of the bustling city. You can find here priests and oracles paying homage to the Mesopotamian gods, and, if one of those gods gets angry, the Ziggurat will be your best place to find relief from the rising flood waters of the erratic Euphrates river.
6 p.m.
2. Craft brewing, Mesopotamian style
After paying your respects to Nanna, you'll want to connect with three other goddess that protect and encourage the ancient peoples of Mesopotamia - Ninkasi, the goddess of brewing, Siris who who gave beer its name, and Siduri, who ensures that those who imbibed had a good time. Don't be surprised that the Mesopotamians, who had a well developed beer culture, but less access to filtering equipment, enjoy their beer through a straw.

Gathering suggests dispersal
Three years ago, I wrote a post called "Gathering suggests dispersal." In this post (as well as a few others that I've written through the years) I'm connecting gathering with other believers to our mandate to go out into the world. We need to gather together, but gathering is not our mission. Our mission is "out there."
As most of us – and most followers of Christ – know, the word translated "church" in our English New Testaments is the Greek noun εκκλησία (ekklÄ"sia). Some continue to make a big deal of the etymology of the word and suggest that εκκλησία (ekklÄ"sia) means "called out ones". In fact, the word simply refers to an assembly or a gathering.
When used to refer to the εκκλησία (ekklÄ"sia) of God, it would thus mean the assembled or gathered people of God. The discussion continues as to whether this is a fixed, continuous assembly or an assembly that may be in flux. Regardless, the phrase points to a group of God's people as they are gathered together.
As you probably know if you read my blog regularly, I am very interested in the meeting of the church – that is, the who, what, when, where, why, and how of the people of God when they assemble. Primarily, I am studying the purpose for the meeting of the church. I believe that purpose is edification or building up the people of God toward maturity in Christ.
However, as I was thinking about εκκλησία (ekklÄ"sia) a few days ago, I realized that a gathering or an assembly, by its nature, suggests a dispersal. The people of God gather because, in general, they are not assembled – they are dispersed. Whether we meet weekly, bi-weekly, semi-weekly, or even daily, we still spend most of our time dispersed – separated from one another.
This is where we find our mission – while we are dispersed. Our mission – task, if you will – is not to assemble, but to be ambassadors of God to those who are not part of his family. If we find our time consumed with gathering – assembling – meeting – then we have missed our most important duty of being salt and light to the world – of taking the gospel to those outside the church – of speaking God's grace and truth into lives who are far from God.
Gathering is important. It is very important. But, it is not everything. In fact, gathering suggests dispersal. God gathers us together with his family by his Spirit, because we are not normally gathered; we are normally dispersed. But, if we find ourselves spending all of our time and effort and resources gathering, then I think we are missing something important – very important.
Yes, gather together with brothers and sisters in Christ. Build up one another using the gifts that God provides, and thereby bring glory to God. But, also, don't forget to disperse in order to take the gospel to your family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, even strangers that God brings into your life.

text: United Security Bancshares, Inc. (Nasdaq: USBI) today reported net income attributable to USBI of $1.4 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012, compared with net income attributable to USBI of $904,000, or $0.15 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2011. "We are pleased that our second quarter's net income of $1.4 million was the highest level of earnings in two years," stated James F. House, President and CEO of United Security Bancshares, Inc. "Our improved earnings resulted from reduced levels of charges related to non-performing loans, including our provision for loan losses, loss on sale of other real estate owned (OREO), and impairment of OREO." "We have made solid progress in improving our asset quality since last year. OREO declined $10.3 million from the second quarter of 2011, and $1.8 million from December 31, 2011. Non-accrual loans declined 39% to $17.5 million since the second quarter of last year, and loans 90 days or more past due were down 51% to $1.7 million compared with the prior year. Our management team continues to focus on identifying problem loans in our portfolio and providing reserves against these loans for potential losses. We still have a higher-than-normal level of classified loans and OREO in our portfolio and will continue to address problem assets as the key to improving our future earnings performance." "We are fortunate that our strong capital base continues to attract new deposits. Although we have made solid progress, our near-term outlook remains cautious since new loan demand is weak and the economy remains soft in our market area," continued Mr. House. Second Quarter Results Net interest income was $8.6 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared with $8.8 million in the second quarter of 2011. Net interest margin was 6.16% in the second quarter of 2012, compared with 6.17% in the second quarter of 2011.

I have client who cannot see any activty on her general ledger accounts from the general journal screen or from financial statements. She is on 2007 Premium. Anyone have any ideas?
Gary L. Roberson, CPA
Does she have the same problem in the sample company? If there are other users, do they have the same problem? Any error messages?
The client had the same problem wiht the sample data as well. I uninstalled and reinstalled, cured the problem. She told me they had an IT guy take Peachtree off the server and load onto her single user PC when they moved their office. I believe I know the cause of the problem.
Thanks for responding.

How to increase the width of a drop down field?Asked by prowrestlingtees on May 04, 2016 at 06:41 PM
How can I increase the size of my first drop down menu so it fits the last selection completely?
JotForm Support
You should be able to increase the size of the first drop down by injecting this CSS code:
#input_7 {
width : 298px !important;
max-width : none;
The form currently has the property max-width with a value already set, so the field can not have more than the specified value, this is why I suggest to add a value of none to the max-width property, as shown in the above code.
Also, if you want to apply this code to other drop downs in your form then you will need to get the ID of the field that you want to affect, the guide below will help you to get the ID of the field:
The guide below will help you to inject the code to your form:
Hope this helps.

MALICOUS apps targeting Android smartphones have exploded in number this year, a report shows.
More malicious apps were discovered in the first six months of 2013 than in the three years prior, according to software security firm Trend Micro.
The number of apps containing malware reached 718,000 by July, up from 350,000 at the end of 2012.
A majority of the malicious apps sign users up to expensive premium services, charging huge amounts to send or receive text messages, for example.
But recently there has been a big surge in "genuine malware", said Jonathan Oliver, Trend Micro's software architecture director for Australia and New Zealand.
The malicious software exploits Android vulnerabilities to steal sensitive information.
One example called FAKEBANK, spotted in the past couple of months, imitates legitimate banking apps and can steal usernames and passwords.
Cybercriminals generally take genuine apps, insert the malicious software, and sell them on the app store for free or at a discount.
They still perform the original function, but secretly sabotage the phones at the same time.
Android phones are more susceptible than iPhones because their app stores are more open, Oliver said. Apple has more say in what gets on its app store, but it means developers have to share their profits.
Users in poorer countries are particularly vulnerable because their app stores are less regulated and they are drawn to cheaper versions of apps.
But Australians remain a "big target" for cybercriminals, particularly those targeting online banking, because of high mobile internet uptake, Oliver said.

The Royal National Police (Arabic: الشرطة الوطنية الملكية, French: Gendarmerie royale nationale, Turkish: Kraliyet Ulusal Polis) or the RNP in short, is North Syria's national law enforcement group. The RNP provides the Kingdom with most of its law enforcement, with a branch operating in every city and governorate.
The RNP also controls, endorses and oversees local law enforcement groups, as required by the Peaceful Citizens Act, in which forbids independent local law enforcement groups without government or RNP-approval which can be counted as militancy.
The RNP is currently lead by Crown Prince Bilal bin Khaled Abdul-Issam, King Fahad's younger brother. He and the King often share control of the RNP. Organizations running within the RNP include the Center for Criminal Investigation, Firearms and Projectiles Department and the Public Violence Prevention Center.
he RNP "officially" started as the National Bureau of North Syria's Homeland Defenses and Security, or the NSHDS leaving the "NB" for "National Bureau" to lessen the difficulty. Fahad Abdul-Issam had already pre-planned the creation of a national police force prior to North Syria's independence from the Syrian Arab Republic in 2011. He also planned to place is younger brother, Bilal was the leader.
During North Syria's independence war against the Syrian Arab Republic, King Fahad divided his the North Syrian Coalition into two main groups. The first group, known as the North Syrian Free Army carried out operations, offensives and battles. The other group, the North Syrian Patrol Group, lived up to its name. Members of that group stayed in towns, cities and communities as an armed patrol militia. They carried out police-like tasks, fought criminals, guarded schools and even gave citizens of their communities numbers that they could call. They also handled suspicious activity towards anybody that could be collaborating with the Syrian government. This group is what eventually would become the Royal National Police.
When the Kingdom of North Syria gained independence from the Syrian Arab Republic, King Fahad took the remaining active personnel of the North Syrian Free Army, turning it into the North Syrian Armed Forces and of the patrol militia to become part of a national police force. Abdul-Issam eventually named it the National Bureau of North Syria's Homeland Defenses and Security.
Afterwards, a Center for Criminal Investigation was created for members of the patrol militia with investigative skills.
After the Peaceful Citizens Act was passed, the NSHDS received training from members of the U.S. Army, as part of their training. That led to the creation of the Firearms and Projectiles Department.

Title: Time and A Place
Author: fickledame
Rating: PG
Word count: 1543
Summary: Yes, it's another fic after 2.20. I haven't written anything for awhile, and I didn't know what to write, and it was suggested I give this a try, so I did. Because I'm a lemming. Veronica waits to be called in at Aaron's trial.
Spoilers: 2.20.
Thanks: Thank you very much to veniveniveni for all her help and for the beta. She rocks, muchly.
Veronica had never been so aware of noises before. Every time someone cleared their throat or coughed it felt like fingernails on a chalkboard, grating on her very last nerve. She narrowed her eyes at a man in a blue suit, deciding he should have given up smoking a good few years ago if his annoying chest rattle was anything to go by. She had just begun to debate the merits of tasering him, when a door opened, and he was ushered into a room further down the hallway, much to Veronica's relief.
The hallway once again fell into silence, the remaining few people obviously lost in the thoughts swirling around in their heads. Veronica sighed, smoothing down the edge of her crisp shirt. Her dad had been in the room for over half an hour now, and the prosecution attorney had warned over that the cross-examination could take hours. There was a good chance she wouldn't even be called to testify that day, but she had to sit outside anyway, her stomach twisting painfully and a knot in her throat.
Veronica heard the footsteps before she saw him and she just knew who would appear around from around the corner. He was dressed casually, in jeans and an olive t-shirt, but his hair was gelled neatly, unlike the last time she had seen it, tousled and fresh from a romp in the hay with Kendall. His stride didn't slow down as her icy gaze flickered to him briefly, before she looked away in controlled disinterest. She felt a glimmer of anger at his presumptuousness and confidence when he planted himself in the seat next to her and held out one of the paper cups he had in his hand.
"Hot chocolate," he announced. "Extra cream and I added some sugar. Just how you like."
Veronica had to fight herself from licking her dry lips at his words, and keep her eyes trained on the floor. She saw his arm falter, before he leaned forward and placed the cup on the ground next to her. He popped the lid from his drink and the bitter smell of coffee was released into the air as her nostrils flared at the strong scent.
"I don't think you'll be called in today," he said quietly. "I listened in through the backdoor and they were still talking about the tapes."
Her annoyance rose from angry to livid in three seconds flat, but she took a calming breath before she said coldly, "Ah yes, the tapes. Whatever could have happened to them, Logan? I mean, we wouldn't be spending hours hashing out their contents if they hadn't mysteriously disappeared."
Logan swallowed heavily and had the decency to look ashamed. She knew she was just picking an argument with him for the sake of it. But at least it gave her a cause to direct the heated emotions swirling inside of her.
"I know you won't understand…" Logan began.
"Don't patronise me," she snapped. "I know why you did it, it just would have been nice not to go through a life and death situation for nothing."
"It wasn't for nothing," Logan protested. "We both saw what was on the tapes; we can tell them what we saw…"
"What did we see?" Veronica interrupted in a barely controlled whisper. Her eyes darted around cautiously; making sure no one could hear them. "We can't prove they were having sex, and without the visual evidence, the whole thing is pretty much useless." There was a heavy pause before Veronica added, "Why did you watch them anyway, you masochistic bastard?" Logan winced and Veronica gritted her teeth as she forced herself not to feel a shred of remorse at her words. Her eyes flickered shut for the briefest of seconds, the image of Kendall slipping her arms around his waist as she stared at them in disbelief and devastation. Her eyes snapped open. This was why she knew she looked like a wreck, with dark rings under her eyes. She hadn't been sleeping. Every time she closed her eyes the image seemed to be burned into the back
"I had to see," Logan replied hoarsely. He turned to look at her, catching her eyes before she could look away. "I'm sorry," he said simply, his voice breaking slightly at the words.
"Well, it's too late to be sorry about the tapes now, isn't it?" Veronica pointed out, looking down and studying her unvarnished nails.
"Not the tapes… well, yes, those too, but for getting drunk, for forgetting… For Kendall." His voice raised an octave in desperation as he hurried to get his words out, to sound sincere, to show he really meant it. Veronica shrugged, an image of nonchalance as Logan ran his hand through his hair. "I can't justify it, any of it. I don't know why I got so drunk, I don't know what I said to you… I don't know if I called Kendall, or if she just showed up. I can't even tell you if I slept with her or not."
"You don't need to tell me this, Logan. I don't care who you're sleeping with. Although fucking Liam Fitzpatrick's partner in crime probably adds to that little death wish you have," Veronica told him sharply.
"She's…" Logan began in surprise, before he stopped and shook his head. "Never mind. I'm just trying to explain how sorry I am."
"Well if you're just looking for me to tell you it doesn't matter, I'm not going to."
"I'm not, I'm not," Logan quickly protested, holding his hands up. "I just wanted you to know how much I regret it. If I could do it over…"
"Yeah, whatever." Her tone was final and unforgiving. "I've heard it all before. I was just stupid enough to bel- " This time her voice broke, and she leaned forward, putting her head on her hands.
His hand slipped on to her back, warm and steady. She flinched, but didn't move.
"I don't know what I can say to make this better," Logan admitted after they were both silent for a few minutes.
"It doesn't matter anyway. We're graduating in two weeks, and it will all be over."
"Don't say that," Logan whispered. "You said… You said you wanted to still see me after graduation. I know I royally fucked up, but we still could."
"I don't think so."
"I know I'm a bastard for what happened, but we could still try, just hang out a few times?"
Veronica shook her head. "I don't think it's a good idea."
"Just drop it, Logan," Veronica interjected tiredly.
"Look, Veronica, I know I messed up okay, but…"
"Just shut up, Logan," she practically shouted. "Why did you say all that if it meant nothing to you what-so-ever? Just the drink talking, right? Was it just a laugh?"
"No it wasn't a laugh," Logan bit back.
"How do you know? It's not like you remember."
"Maybe if you hadn't left, as usual…"
"I explained why I left," Veronica spat. "I needed space."
"It seems I'm not entirely to blame though," Logan pointed out. "I probably said whatever, you ran out on me and I probably thought that was it."
"So you called her. I mean, god, of all people."
"She means nothing," Logan insisted. "You run off when you can't deal. I... I call Kendall and don't deal."
They sat in tense silence, both breathing heavily. Veronica slowly scrapped away the varnish coating the arm of the wooden chair she was sitting on. Sitting outside a court room waiting for twelve people to decide the fate of the man who murdered her best friend was hardly the time to be discussing relationship issues, Veronica realised.
"D-do you think the case is entirely useless without the tapes?" Logan finally asked hesitantly, obviously having come to the same conclusion about there being a time and a place for these things – and his father's trial wasn't one of them.
"Not entirely, no," Veronica replied, her voice gentler that it was before. "They have us, my dad, the guy he knocked out, not to mention testimonies from Mrs Navarro and other members of staff that came forward."
"And what if it is all useless? What if he gets away with it?" His tone was sad, desperate and Veronica looked up, noting how much he looked like a lost little boy with his sleeve wrapped around the hand that wasn't still on her back.
"If he does, you'll be okay, Logan. You're eighteen and emancipated. You can leave town, travel the world. You have enough money to escape, get away from him." She leant forward and picked up the hot chocolate, to try and hide the tear that escaped and rolled down her cheek.
Logan slowly reached over and placed his fingers on top of her hand. "I wouldn't do that to you," he replied adamantly. "You're strong, but I'd never let you face him by yourself again."
Veronica took a deep breath as she leaned back against the wooden bench, her hand twisting under his until they were palm to palm, before she clasped her fingers in-between his.
Feedback very, very appreciated. Thanks!

2.13 The Abnormal Mammogram: What Happens Next?
Receiving a result of an abnormal mammogram or being called for further tests can be very worrying. In the majority of cases, a mammographic abnormality does not mean that cancer is present, but is an indicator that further investigations are required.
2.13.1 A Clinical Management Algorithm
The use of clinical algorithms or clinical pathways, sometimes called clinical 'trees' can be a way of explaining the next stages in the diagnostic process (Esserman et al. 2000).
2.13.2 Repeat Mammography (Recall)
An unsure diagnosis happens very rarely. When no definitive diagnosis can be made after assessment, women may be invited for early recall mammogram in 12 months or sooner. About 92% of screening mammograms do not require additional follow-up imaging.
Between 60% to 70% of women who go through a follow-up diagnostic mammogram or ultrasound and have imaging features abnormal enough to require a biopsy, will turn out to have benign breast conditions only.
2.13.3 Making the Tissue Diagnosis
For the patient with a suspicious mammographic abnormality or a palpable breast lump, the obligatory diagnostic next step is a biopsy or cytology sample to make a diagnosis of benign or malignant. This assessment will be done by the Pathologist who looks at sections of the breast tissue sample down the microscope.
The recommended method of tissue sampling is by palpation-guided or image-guided needle or 'core' biopsy. 'Surgical' biopsy should not be used diagnostically unless percutaneous biopsy is not feasible (Gutwein et al., 2011).
It is important that a pre-operative tissue diagnosis of invasive carcinoma is confirmed. The diagnosis allows the surgeon to plan the surgical procedure and to include biopsy of the sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy or a full axillary lymph node dissection as required.
Surgical excision of an extensive area of Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (DCIS) may be optimally planned, but only if the diagnosis has already been established by percutaneous core needle biopsy (CNB).
There are several techniques that are now used to make the tissue diagnosis:
i. Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) Cytology/Biopsy.
Fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy, percutaneous, palpation-guided is a well-established technique for assessing palpable breast lumps.
Figure 2.11 Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) and Cytology.
A. Sampling is done using a needle and syringe. B.
The appearance of the aspirated cells when stained
and viewed down the microscope, show benign
sheets of cells from a fibroadenoma.
FNA is performed with a 10 ml or 20 ml syringe and a 23 gauge to 27 gauge needle. The needle is passed through the skin and into a palpable lump or area of breast abnormality. The needle tip passed back and forth within the mass.
Negative pressure is applied while pulling the syringe plunger back and while rotating the wrist so that the needle is twisting.
The aspirated cytology specimen is expelled into a preservative, such as CytoLyte solution and sent to the Pathology laboratory. The aim is to have an adequate sample with enough cells for the Cytopathologist to examine.
These cells are spun down, smeared on a glass slide, fixed and stained with a visual histochemical stain and examined under a microscope.
FNA cytology has certain advantages:
- FNA can be done anywhere and with no special patient preparation.
- FNA is easy to perform and does not require specialist training.
- FNA is quick, takes only minutes to perform.
- The results of FNA cytology are quick, within a few hours if required.
- FNA cytology is inexpensive.
FNA cytology has some disadvantages:
- It is not possible to distinguish between in-situ and invasive cancer.
- There is a significant rate of non-diagnostic samples; between 5 % to 10 % for palpable lesions and as high as 30 % for non-palpable abnormalities.
- There is a significant rate of 'false negative' results in inexperienced hands.
- The rate of 'inadequate' or 'non-diagnostic' cytologic samples, taken from palpable breast abnormalities averages between 4% to 13%, but may be as high as 36 % for non-palpable abnormalities.
FNA is also used to diagnose simple breast cyst. The fluid within a simple cyst can be clear, yellow, grey, green, blue, milky, or bloody. Bloody fluid must be submitted for cytology as this indicates a lesion other than a simple cyst.
Ultrasound (US)-guided FNA of palpable lesions increases the degree of confidence that the needle has been placed accurately.
ii. Stereotactic Biopsy
Mammographic guidance on the stereotactic table increases the accuracy for core biopsy. Stereotactic biopsies are done with the patient prone or upright. For a prone stereotactic biopsy, the patient lies face-down on the table with her breast through an opening in the table.
Certain conditions are not amenable to stereotactic biopsy, including a small breast, lesions close to the chest wall or nipple and faint calcifications.
iii. Core Needle Biopsy (CNB)
At the present time, in most centers, stereotactic CNB has replaced wire localization and excision as the most common initial biopsy method for non-palpable mammographic abnormalities.
Core needle biopsy (CNB) has the following advantages:
- CNB offers a more definitive histologic diagnosis.
- CNB avoids inadequate samples.
- CNB may allow a distinction between invasive and in-situ carcinoma.
- CNB is safe.
- Fewer samples are needed to make a diagnosis.
Ultrasound-guided CNBs of non-palpable breast lesions is faster and better tolerated by some patients than the stereotactic technique.
The use of ultrasound requires that the lesion is well-visualized and confidence that the ultrasound finding and mammographic finding represent the same thing. If the lesion is better-visualized mammographically and is difficult to reproduce reliably on ultrasound, then stereotactic guidance is the preferred method.
Stereotactic-guided CNB is the standard approach for lesions with micro-calcifications, since these lesions cannot usually be visualized by ultrasound.
iv. Vacuum-assisted Core Needle Biopsy (VAB)
Vacuum-assisted CNB (VAB) was first described in 1995. It is a stereotactic technique that may remove mammographic abnormalities of up to 1 cm in diameter, by just using an 11-gauge needle. Up to 1 gm of tissue can be obtained in just four needle cores. The accuracy of VAB has been reported, with a false-negative rate as low as 3% (Kettritz et al., 2004)
v. Incisional Biopsy
If a core needle biopsy or skin punch biopsy is non-diagnostic, and the breast mass is too large to remove without a significant cosmetic compromise, incision biopsy can be performed to confirm the diagnosis.
vi. Excision Biopsy
If the core needle biopsy is non-diagnostic, and it is not concordant with imaging results, or if it yields any high-risk abnormality such as atypical hyperplasia, radial scar, papilloma or lobular carcinoma in-situ, excision of the entire lesion is advised.
In some cases, a patient will prefer an excision biopsy as they will prefer to have the mass excised, even if it is benign.
Excision biopsy of simple cysts, of clustered micro-cysts or cysts with thin septa, is not necessary.
Excision biopsies may generate scar tissue inside the breast that may prompt a diagnostic evaluation in the future if prior mammograms are not available for comparison.
However, surgical excision biopsy has a role and is advised in the following situations:
- Complex cysts referred to as a 'complex mass' in the BI-RADS classification, not amenable to core needle biopsy should have a needle-localized excisional biopsy for tissue diagnosis.
- Aspirated cysts that do not completely resolve should undergo evaluation using a core biopsy or a surgical excision.
- The increase in size or suspicious changes are seen on follow-up imaging after a previous core biopsy showed benign results.
- If pathology results from a core biopsy are discordant with imaging, or are atypical, indeterminate or reveal a malignancy.
A metallic marker placed at the time of the diagnostic core biopsy will aid in needle localization of the biopsy area at the time of surgery. An intraoperative specimen radiograph will confirm the removal of the entire wire and the metallic marker, providing assurance that adequate sampling was performed.
vii. Wire Localization Biopsy
The use of metal clips to identify CNB sites is commonly used and can assist the radiologist and the surgeon. Placement of a clip following ultrasound-guided CNB is important for providing mammographic and sonographic correlation of lesion location.
When non-palpable micro-calcifications are found on mammography, wire localization and excision may be used. Wires may be placed mammographically to guide the surgeon to include the mammographic abnormality in the surgical excision. These wires are left in the excised specimen so that pathologist may sample the abnormal breast tissue and correlate the histology with the mammographic findings.
The goal of wire localization is to obtain a histologic diagnosis, or to perform complete excision of highly suspicious lesion, to excise CNB-proven tumors, or to remove residual suspicious calcifications following excision of malignant calcifications.
Wire localization performed using ultrasound guidance is more rapid and is better tolerated than mammographic localization.
US-guided wire localization can be accomplished if there is a residual lesion visualized sonographically, or if there is an accurately placed clip.
For patients found to have DCIS, complete excision of the entire breast lesion with appropriate margins is required for successful breast conservation therapy.
The achievement of excision margins that are negative for tumor involvement is a significant factor in the reduction of local tumor recurrence.
The use of stereotactic CNB prior to planned excision of malignant micro-calcifications has decreased the incidence of finding positive margins at the time of excision. But still, 20 % of cases still have a positive histologic margin of excision (Stomper, 2000).
viii. Excision Specimen Mammography
The use of localization wires can be inserted mammographically into the breast to mark the site of the radiologic abnormality.
When an excision of a non-palpable breast lesion is performed, with or without retention of a localization wire, a specimen mammogram and pathologic assessment of tumor margins are required.
Whole specimen mammography is obligatory for clinically occult lesions excised under mammographic localization and is recommended for palpable lesions that are associated with micro-calcifications.
All specimens should be oriented by the surgeon. Specimen radiography is done to confirm the accurate removal of the mammographic abnormality and to guide the pathologist to sample the most appropriate area for histology. Visualization of the clip and/or foreign body material accompanying the clip helps the pathologist and the surgeon identify the prior biopsy site.
Figure 2.12 Wire Localization Excision Specimen.
An excised breast specimen contains a wire, placed
with its tip at the site of the mammographic
breast abnormality. The surgeon removed the breast
tissue with the wire in place. The specimen X-ray
can be compared with the mammogram before
the Pathologist samples the tissue for histopathology.
Specimen radiography can also show whether the lesion has been transected or is in proximity to the edge of the specimen. In such cases, additional tissue may need to be removed to increase the likelihood of negative margins. The best opportunity to achieve clear margins is at the time of the original surgical excision.
Some centers and some breast surgeons use digital imaging in the operating room, such as Faxitrons, to provide an immediate image of the specimen and to improve the ability of the surgeon to see the lesion in relation to the excision margin.
2.13.4 Management of Concordant Findings
All benign histological diagnoses from core needle biopsies (CNB) or cytology following an abnormal mammogram, require concordant radiologic-pathologic correlation for lesions that will not be excised.
The National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines advise follow-up to include a physical examination and radiographic evaluation (mammogram and/or ultrasound) 6 to 12 months after CNB.
2.13.5 Management of Discordant Findings
Discordant findings of a histologically benign lesion that does not correlate with the mammographic abnormality requires further evaluation. Further investigations may involve another biopsy or MRI and will often require excisional biopsy.
2.13.6 Management of Atypical Lesions from Core Biopsy Results
If the core biopsy shows any abnormality, a wire localization breast biopsy is advised to confirm the diagnosis.
There are some benign entities that are often associated with a malignancy and excisional biopsy leads to a diagnosis of malignancy in up to 50 % of cases. The benign conditions that should be followed up include, sclerosing adenosis, radial scar (complex sclerosing lesion), atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH), atypical lobular hyperplasia (ALH) and lobular carcinoma in-situ (LCIS).
2.14 Mammographic Assessment of the Extent of Disease
Mammography can assess the extent of in-situ ductal carcinoma (DCIS) and early invasive carcinoma beginning with diagnostic mammography through to the biopsy, specimen management, and the post-excision mammogram.
2.14.1 Bilateral Mammography
Mammography of both breasts is done for the patient with in-situ ductal carcinoma (DCIS) or invasive cancer who is considering breast conservation.
Pre-operative diagnostic mammography is done to define the extent of disease as it may identify multi-focal or multi-centric cancer that could either indicate difficulty in achieving clear surgical margins or preclude breast conservation.
2.14.2 Multi-Focal, Multi-Centric and Synchronous Disease
Multi-focal breast disease involves several areas within the breast quadrant, and probably representing disease along an entire breast duct.
Multi-focal breast tumors are present in 10% to 12% of patients. These represent multiple tumor nodules or masses within the same breast. The sensitivity for detecting these tumors with mammography is between 15% to 45%; this can be improved with whole breast sonography.
In women with dense breast tissue, the sensitivity of mammography in detecting multi-focal breast tumors drops by about 10%.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most sensitive screening tool for multi-focal breast cancer, with a detection rate of around 81%.
Figure 2.13 Magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI) of the breast.
Shows multi-focal breast tumors with
extension in to breast ducts.
In contrast, 'multi-centric disease' involves multiple areas within different breast quadrants and probably represents malignant involvement of multiple ducts and lobules.
The extent of mammographic non-linear branching micro-calcifications often underestimates the tissue extent of the malignancy in the breast. In a study in 1990 by Holland and colleagues, it was found that the discrepancy was less than 2 cm in 80% to 85% of cases (Holland et al., 1990). A minimum of 2 cm surgical excision margin, beyond the mammographic area of abnormality is advised.
These studies support the observation that several clusters of micro-calcifications separated by normal-appearing breast tissue should not be interpreted as multi-focal or multi-centric disease. These 'clusters' may represent areas of a contiguous tumor that may be only partially calcified within a duct or lobule.
A 'synchronous' contralateral breast tumor (found within 3 to 12 months of the first tumor) is found by physical examination or mammography in approximately 2% of cases of breast cancer.
For women who present with unilateral breast cancer, a subsequent 'metachronous' contralateral cancer tends to develop at a rate of 0.5-1% per year, which represents a cumulative risk of 15%.
Contralateral mammography is a mandatory follow-up for all patients with breast cancer.
2.14.3 Extensive Intra-Duct Component (EIC)
The combination of a breast mass with micro-calcification often indicates the presence of an 'extensive intra-ductal component' (EIC).
EIC is defined histologically as DCIS which is found adjacent to an invasive carcinoma (IDC) and which accounts for more than 25 % of total the volume of disease in the breast.
EIC can be a predictor for more widespread residual tumor (usually DCIS) following excision of the main breast lesion.
