When the time rolls around for Kelly Bleyer's annual mammogram, she hears two voices in her head: her gynecologist, who says she absolutely must have a mammogram every single year, and her father-in-law, who urges her to get a mammogram every other year instead.
While most women would listen to their gynecologist, Kelly's father-in-law isn't just anyone: He's the co-author of a new mammography study in the New England Journal of Medicine, and he says he believes passionately that mammograms might be making women sick -- maybe even killing them.
"I really don't know what to do," says Bleyer, 50, an anchor and health reporter at KBND radio in Bend, Oregon. "I feel so conflicted."
'Mammography is not perfect'
Dr. Archie Bleyer knows his advice to his daughter-in-law is controversial, even heretical in a society where pink ribbons on everything from billboards to yogurt containers remind women to get their annual mammograms.
Here's his reasoning: His study suggests that nearly one out of every three women diagnosed with breast cancer has a tumor that is so tiny and growing so slowly it would never cause any problems even if it weren't treated.
The problem is doctors can't tell in advance whether a tumor will be harmless or deadly, so they have to treat them all, and some of those treatments, such as chemothreapy, can increase a woman's risk for leukemia and other diseases.
"We're mortals, and we're still trying to figure this out," says Bleyer, clinical research professor at the department of radiation medicine at the Knight Cancer Institute at Oregon Health and Science University.
The new study also finds that mammograms aren't catching some truly dangerous tumors that later turn out to become advanced cancer.
Mammograms are supposed to catch breast cancer early, but after 30 years of aggressive mammography, advanced breast cancer rates haven't gone down at all, according to Bleyer's study.
"This study brings to light what we've already known for some time, which is that mammography is not perfect," says Chandini Portteus, vice president of research, evaluation and scientific programs at Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
Study: More than 1 million women 'overdiagnosed'
Bleyer's study, written with Dr. Gilbert Welch at the Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice, examined national data on mammograms from 1976 to 2008.
They found that during this time, twice as many cases of early-stage breast cancer were caught -- but they estimate that 31% of those cancers were slow-growing and never would have made the woman sick.
Breast cancer was "overdiagnosed" in 1.3 million women over the past 30 years -- 70,000 women in 2008 alone, according to the study.
"That's a lot of women, and that's a problem," Bleyer says.
The study also found that as mammograms grew in popularity, the death rate from breast cancer went down 28% in women over age 40, but the study authors said that was largely due to better treatment, not mammograms.
The study has already caused controversy. The American College of Radiology issued a statement saying the report was "deeply flawed and misleading" -- a claim the study authors refute.
Dr. Len Lichtenfeld, deputy chief medical officer of the American Cancer Society, said while "overdiagnosis is a matter deserving of attention," the study's conclusions "must be viewed with caution."
What's a woman to do?
Given all this, should women have mammograms every year after age 40, as currently recommended by most health organizations, or start having them every other year?
Kelly Bleyer said after much thought, she's decided to follow the advice of her gynecologist and not her father-in-law.
"I'll keep having a mammogram every year -- my insurance covers it, and I know how my doctor feels about it," she says. "But I'm open to hearing more about what the science says. I think I could live with having it every other year."
Here are some tips for making your own decision about how often to have mammograms:
1. Learn the mammogram guidelines

"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."- Bl.

"Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded— here and there, now and then— are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty. This is known as 'bad luck.'"- Robert A.

Classic Car News
Porsche parade planned
Image: Brian Snelson, 2009
The celebrations of the Porsche 911's 50th anniversary, to be held this year, vary in size and significance, although each is important to fans of this illustrious range of German sports cars.
Over in the UK, one of the biggest events is set to take place at the iconic Silverstone race track, where a parade filled with classic 911s, from Porsche Carrera models to convertibles and rare racers, is set to take place this July.
Organisers are planning to get a total of 911 Porsches involved in the parade, which is an entirely appropriate number, given the occasion and should make it an impressive sight to behold.
As well as the Porsche Carrera variants, you can expect to see the RS, GT, Tagra and Turbo all represented in this motley crew of classics.
Given that over three quarters of a million 911s have been made over the past five decades, it should not be too difficult to scrape together 911 examples for the parade.
The Silverstone track will also play host to the brand new 911 GT3 which is debuting at various motor shows around the world, ahead of its 2014 release. American fans will have to pay a little over $130,000 for this cutting edge model, although there are plenty of affordable classic examples.

text: The 2012 Red Storm Tip-Off launched a new season of St. John's basketball at the Queens, NY, campus on October 12 as 3,158 fans cheered the University's men's and women's teams in Carnesecca Arena. For the second straight year, ESPN3 aired the Tip-Off nationally via St. John's Television Network Productions. ESPN personality John Anderson hosted the event, which featured performances by Chiddy Bang and music from DJ Zeke. The evening included a men's scrimmage, a men's and women's mixed-team shooting contest, a slam-dunk competition and a $30,000 half-court shot challenge. Announcer Ralph Bednarczyk hosted the ESPN3 broadcast. Joining him courtside were former St. John's standout Tarik Turner and Dartmouth star Samantha Berdinka. "The Coach" Tim O'Toole conducted sideline interviews throughout the event.After the players and coaching staffs were introduced, the women's team took to the court with a specially choreographed dance. The men's scrimmage followed. Freshman JaKarr Sampson cruised to victory in the slam-dunk contest, with an artful assist by Orlando Sanchez. "The players' energy was an uplifting experience — it reminds you of the joy that team sports can bring," said Steve Lavin, head men's basketball coach. "You're in that hallway, in the underbelly of Carnesecca Arena, seeing those kids and how hyped they are, and the energy is palpable. There can be plenty of hardship throughout a season, but tonight was about joy and celebration to tip-off our season." The Red Storm's returning core includes BIG EAST All-Rookie selection D'Angelo Harrison, combo guard Phil Greene, swingmen Sir'Dominic Pointer and Amir Garrett, along with big-man God'sgift Achiuwa. Lavin's nationally ranked No. 8 recruiting class comprises West African guard Felix Balamou; French shooter Marc-Antoine Bourgault; Texas A&M transfer Jamal Branch; Harvard transfer Max Hooper; power forward Christian Jones; Top-20 Nigerian center Chris Obekpa; 2011–12 New England Preparatory School Athletic Council AAA Player of the Year JaKarr Sampson; and Dominican-born JUCO All-American Orlando Sanchez. "This was the best turnout we've ever had at this event, which is a testament to our fans and their support," said Joe Tartamella '04MBA, head women's basketball coach. Commenting on the team's recent achievements, he added, "Tonight is a celebration. It's about these young ladies and what they've accomplished by bringing the program to new heights and going to the Sweet 16. We look to continue that and bring an NCAA Tournament game to Queens this year." Under new-hired Coach Tartamella's direction, the 2012–13 Red Storm squad returns four starters, eight letterwinners and 79 percent of its scoring from a 2011–12 team that advanced to its first-ever NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 and finished second in the BIG EAST. The team earned a 13-3 conference record to go with a 24-10 overall mark and were picked to finish fourth in the BIG EAST Preseason Coaches Poll — the highest preseason ranking since the records were kept in 2000. Led by senior WBCA All-Region standouts Nadirah McKenith and Shenneika Smith — along with Eugeneia McPherson and BIG EAST All-Rookie selection Amber Thompson, St. John's was ranked No. 10 in the ESPN list of 25 teams to watch this season.

WHat happened to the Brown
You used to carry this in brown. Bring back the brown!
Favorite Coat
I've had this coat in Camel for many, many years but now it's beginning to look "old". I wanted to get a new one but my size is gone. I'll keep checking back. I get more compliments when I wear this coat than any other, much more expensive coasts.
Budd Lake, NJ
Colors are much different
I purchased both coats in a size up; The pink coat is like a soft English Rose and the blue coat is more soft Mint. I should have order my regular size but I am keeping them because they are sweet and my Irish sweaters will fit with plenty of room!
Washingtonville, NY
So many compliments
I had have this coat in black/white for several years and I still get so many compliments on it. It fits perfect and keep a trendy look. It dry cleans and holds up really well after all the wear. I love it! I am glad to see Chadwicks still carries it so I can buy another when I need it.

timeless coat
I ordered this coat in black a couple of years ago at regular price. This is great coat it is timesless. it looks good with jeans, pants, skirts, and dresses. This is great coat to have for many years. I cant wait to get it in pink color.
decatur, ga
Very light coat, will be good for where I live in the Spring or early Fall. But enough room if I want to wear layers underneath for winter. I'm 5'4" 125lbs and wear small in most women size tops and size 5 dress. This coat in a 4 fits just right and on sale!! I got the pink and the color is muted. Almost looks like it has gray undertones, it looks vintage. I plan on changing out the buttons for more sparkly vintage type buttons to jazz it up. Great light coat, pretty pink, vintage styling & great price, 5 stars.
Love These Coats
I just love these coats and have been wearing them for years. I have it in Winter White, Brown, Camel, Rich Red and Black. I just had to order a new black one because the one I've had for years is beginning to show it. The moon pockets, vent in back and classic collar are so stylish. I get compliments all the time when wearing these coats. Thanks Chadwicks for keeping it in stock.
"Happy Customer"

Debt is the entire stock of direct government fixed-term contractual obligations to others outstanding on a particular date. It includes domestic and foreign liabilities such as currency and money deposits, securities other than shares, and loans. It is the gross amount of government liabilities reduced by the amount of equity and financial derivatives held by the government. Because debt is a stock rather than a flow, it is measured as of a given date, usually the last day of the fiscal year. |

Green Jobs: How To Communicate About Them and Get One Too
Green Jobs: How To Communicate About Them and Get One TooFraming green choices in terms of the things Americans care about is essential if we're going to get people on board with real change. Take green jobs. Lots of people want work that aligns with their values so they can feel good about being paid to make the world a better place. Green jobs can deliver on that promise. As I write in my latest article on Huffington Post ( How To Sell Green Jobs to America ), the green jobs are already here. We in the green community are just doing a lousy job of communicating about those jobs in ways that get people excited and generate broad-based support for creating more of them. I'm fortunate to have a green job. And I know that millions of others would like to have a green job too. It's why I dedicated the last chapter of The Lazy Environmentalist on a Budget to landing a green job. To me, it's obvious how intrinsically linked our lifestyles are to the work we do. Heck, the work we do takes up most of our waking hours, so clearly it has an impact on how we feel, how we live, where we live, and almost all the other choices we make. In many ways my TV show is very much about green jobs too. That's because in most episodes I'm working with professionals across numerous industries to see if I can green the way they run their business, or in other words, their job. If I can get these non-green folks to embrace greener practice... |

Dems Say Congress 'On the Door Step' of a Spending Deal as GOP Emphasizes Cuts
With just a week to go before the government runs out of money, Reid said lawmakers would only consider a short-term CR "if it's necessary to give us time to do paperwork." No buying time if there are genuine policy differences, in other words. It seems clear, though, that some of the riders must be adopted in order to strike a compromise, particularly if Speaker Boehner is to sell $33 billion in cuts as the best deal he and fellow Republicans could possibly get in a divided Congress.

As the skin ages, it regenerates more slowly due to a loss in collagen, elastin, and hydration. Constant exposure to harsh sun rays and environmental pollutants add to the damage. Incorporating a skin treatment into your daily hygiene routine can help to infuse fresh vitality into your countenance, allowing you to reclaim your skin's radiance and youthful appearance.
Many of the treatment formulas that are available today offer multiple benefits that work together to strengthen dermal vitality while rejuvenating your skin's supple nature and youthful appearance. Intensive concentrates have been formulated to address stretch marks and wrinkles, reducing their visibility with specialized complexes and peptide actives as they rebuild the skin and create renewed cell growth. Skin boosters offering topical solutions for the revitalization of dermal strength deliver powerful ingredients that improve the skin's texture and tone.
Fighting off the signs of aging created by tired-out cell growth, specialized serums containing essential oils, rich vitamins, and nutrients recreate the skin by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin in order to rebuild the skin's natural elasticity and ability to protect itself from harm. Natural treatments containing rich botanical ingredients minimize the signs of aging by firming the skin with renewed hydration and vitality.
We also carry a variety of treatments for other skin issues such as acne, redness and spider veins.

"PHA's research program has yielded an explosion of understanding about PH that was not known before."- John Newman, MD, Vanderbilt University Medical Center
PH Treatments: What's on the Horizon
Watch Dr. Michael McGoon's webinar presentation from April 2013
Twenty years ago there were no pulmonary hypertension treatments available. Through focused research there are now nine PH-specific treatments with more in development. But we know that your ultimate wish is for a cure, and that is why PHA will continue to support the work of researchers until the day when no one suffers from PH.
In just a little under a decade, PHA's Research Program has committed more than $12.5 million for PH research by leveraging partnerships with the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and the American Thoracic Society (ATS). We have supported over 49 promising researchers through four independently reviewed, cutting-edge research programs.

PHA's Scientific Leadership Council's Education Committee has put together comprehensive factsheets on all the treatments available for pulmonary hypertension. Read more about current treatments

(National Pain Report) A new classification criterion for systemic sclerosis, a chronic autoimmune disease also known as scleroderma, could help physicians diagnose and begin treating patients sooner. The new criteria, developed by a joint committee formed by the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) and the European League Against Rheumatism, are published in the ACR journal, Arthritis & Rheumatism. They are the first changes in the criteria since 1980. Read article
Today the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the eleventh pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) treatment in the U.S., Actelion Pharmaceutical's macitentan (commercially known as Opsumit), an oral dual endothelin-receptor antagonist. This comes just ten days after the approval of riociguat (commercially known as Adempas) for the treatment of PAH and some cases of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). These two new drugs are the first in five years to be approved by FDA for treating PH. According to Healio, the phase 3 SERAPHIN drug trial for macitentan was the first to test a PAH drug for its effects on morbidity and mortality. Patients who took the drug showed lower rates of morbidity and mortality as compared to patients who received a placebo, showed improved six-minute walk tests and more showed improvement in their WHO functional class. Acknowledging the achievement of adding an eleventh drug to the choices for PAH patients in a rare disease state, PHA President Rino Aldrighetti said, "Of the 7,000 rare diseases, only three have as many or more treatments available. We are fortunate to have a strong and growing research community with great communication and cooperation. That has helped foster industry interest in exploring new options for patients."PHA itself has committed more than $12.5 million to support cutting-edge research focused on pulmonary hypertension. PHA has been able to leverage such substantial funding through partnerships with the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), American Thoracic Society (ATS), American Heart Association (AHA), and Pfizer. We know that your ultimate wish is for a cure, and that is why PHA will continue to support the work of researchers until the day when no one suffers from PH.Learn more: FDA press release | macitentan study findings | PH treatments in the U.S. | PH treatments worldwide | PHA Research Program
(Science Codex) Using mice, lab-grown cells and clues from a related disorder, Johns Hopkins researchers have greatly increased understanding of the causes of , showing that a critical culprit is a defect in the way certain cells communicate with their structural scaffolding. They say the new insights point the way toward potentially developing drugs for the disease, which affects approximately 100,000 people in the United States. Read article
On Tuesday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Bayer's riociguat pill for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Riociguat, commercially known as Adempas, will be used for CTEPH patients after pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE) surgery or if surgery is not possible. This will be the first drug available for CTEPH patients and tenth for PAH.
PHA President Rino Aldrighetti says, "Treatment opportunities for patients are growing rapidly. Eighteen years ago there were no treatments for pulmonary arterial hypertension. Twelve years ago there was one. Today there are ten, with a possible eleventh later this year (Actelion's macitentan). Of the 7,000 rare diseases, only three have as many or more treatments available. We are fortunate to have a strong and growing research community with great communication and cooperation. That has helped foster industry interest in exploring new options for patients."
Better Prognosis for PH Patients
The strong progress in the field of pulmonary hypertension over the past two decades has led to a better prognosis for PH patients. Whereas physicians treating PH once delivered terminal diagnoses, they now expect their patients to live with their condition. Many patients survive for years -- even 10-20 years or more -- with proper PH treatment.
Patients Not Receiving Treatments in a Timely Manner
"The problem we now face is getting these treatments to patients sooner. While we have made huge strides over the past 20 years, the time it takes to reach a correct PH diagnosis has not changed," explains PHA Vice President for Community Engagement Mollie Katz. "With missed or late diagnosis, the disease continues to get worse, affecting patients' survival and quality of life. Many patients will see three or more different physicians over a three year period before they are properly diagnosed with PH, and almost three-fourths have advanced PH by the time they are diagnosed. Because PHA sees early diagnosis as a huge priority, second only to a cure, we are working with medical professionals and patients to improve diagnosis through our early diagnosis campaign, Sometimes it's PH.
Not There Yet
While there are 10 treatments for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and now one for CTEPH, there are none approved for pediatric patients. PHA has launched the only pediatric PH research program in the United States, the Robyn Barst Pediatric Research and Mentoring Fund.
And, says Rino, "Ultimately, our goal is a cure. With increasing numbers of researchers engaged in more studies every year, we are hopeful and encouraged as we see that hope turning into action."

Bryan Adams welcomes a daughter
Adams and his wife, Alicia Grimaldi, also have a 2-year-old
UPDATED 1:04 AM EST Feb 18, 2013
Bryan Adams and Alicia Grimaldi are now the proud parents of two.

"Lula Rosylea decided to arrive at tea time," Adams said in a statement. "Rosylea is cockney-rhyming-slang in London for 'a cup of tea' and the name Lula comes from Gene Vincent's song 'Be-Bop-A-Lula.' "

"Thanks to everyone for the kind wishes," he tweeted on Friday. "Baby and mama are doing well."
