It's been so many times I've visited this restaurant and every time I go there I notice a better and better customer service and food. People are very friendly and you can feel they all enjoy working there. I was there last night with some of my friends and as always enjoyed it. I loved the early Valentine's day gift, a red rose for every one. You can only get this kind of customer service at Alexander's on the Bay.
I highly recommend this place
Went to Alexanders on a recent Saturday night. The weather was very nice so we ate on the patio. The bay is less the 50 yards away, so you have a nice view of the water. The staff was very pleasant, and service was excellent. They had a large number of specials,(lobster, crab, fish,lamb) and a nice selection from the menu. The salads were fresh, excellent crab soup and the Mahi was delicious. The desserts are homemade. All in all a very nice meal.
One of my all time favorite fine dining experiences. Always fresh, always attentive service and by far the most beautiful view you will experience while dining....
Great service on a busy Saturday night. Wait staff were very pleasant, food was over the top great, and a view that will excite the romantic in anyone. Try one of there many specials (I had the red snapper, excellent!). Made reservations for another visit next week. Can wait!
The veiw of the Chesapeake Bay and Bay Bridge is only a part of this "hidden treasure", The locals have been keeping this to themselves for years. I brought three of my girlfriends to dinner here a couple weeks ago and it was fantastic! We started with the Oysters Rockafeller and Calamari, with Cosmos! Awesome! Each of us ordered something different, Filet Mignon, Seafood Madagascar, Parmesean Crab encrusted Tuna, Broiled Flounder. The service was impecable, and we really did not want to leave.
You really need to take an evening and sit back enjoy and be pampered!
Beautiful scenery and the waitress was wonderful. We were happy that they did not rush us on with our dinner..it was very relaxing. My daughter's salmon was delicious, the crab soup was very good and their house salad with walnuts and balsamic vinegar was amazing!
We used our GroupOn coupon at Alexender's with some trepidation. Several previous reviews panned the food, the service and the attitude of the hostess. We were pleasantly surprised by our visit. We called the restaurant to request a reservation, they called us back promptly. We were about 10 minutes late for our reservation due to traffic, but the hostess was very welcoming and pleasant. The waitress was well-trained and, although she spit out the specials (5 or 6 of them) very rapidly, she graciously went back and repeated each. When I ordered the crab cakes, which were not on special, she was enthusiastic about them. My husband ordered the lamb chops, always a trick decision at a sea food house. I also ordered a drink and an appetizer. Both were served promptly, along with excellent rolls and butter. The entrees came promptly after that and were well-prepared and well-presented. Should have resisted dessert, but tried the white chocolate cheesecake with raspberry sauce. It was an expensive night out, but well worth it. We will go back.
Went here for my Fiancees birthday. The food was absolutely incredible, he had the filet mignon and I had one of the specials--salmon stuffed with crab in a lobster cream sauce. My mouth is watering just thinking about it! Service was great, and the view is incredible. We were there around sunset, which is just awesome.
The service for my wedding at Alexander's on the Bay last weekend was OUTSTANDING! My guests raved about the great food, the calming ambience, and of course the beautiful scenery. The owner made every accommodation possible to make my family and friends feel at home, as well as any little task that I needed to have done in preparation for the ceremony. Don't make your final decision based off of the previous reviews. Go and see it for yourself. I am truly delighted and thankful!
Located right on the beach at the Chesapeake Bay near the Bay Bridge. Nearly every table has a good view. Nice place, recently rebuilt and ready to please. Good food with a seafood emphasis, and server was pleasant and helpful.

Austin City Limits: Decisions, decisions…
ACL guide for Aggies adventuring to Austin
Published: Sunday, September 11, 2011
Updated: Wednesday, July 25, 2012 19:07
Dedicated to discussing and promoting both local and regional musicians, venues, and festivals, this culture blog is updated every Monday. Readers can look forward to music reviews, concert updates, and commentary on the best in the music world.
For Aggies, September tends to be a month full of chaos and commotion as the semester begins; classes fill up and the search for that obscure textbook required for your hip-hop philosophy elective becomes more and more hopeless. Admittedly, it's even harder to transition back into the college lifestyle after a summer of non-stop partying (or in my case, a summer of slumber).
For Aggies who happen to be music lovers, September is a month full of anticipation. Just this past weekend, two great music festivals, Ziegfest, which took place here in College Station, and Wild Frontier Fest, in Austin, have come and gone featuring some of the coolest up-and-coming bands in the country. If you missed out on all of the fun this last weekend, fear not! It's not too late to get your festival fix.
Celebrating its 10 anniversary on the fast approaching weekend of September 16th, the three day long musical ruckus, Austin City Limits has become one of the largest and most popular music festivals in Texas. Every year, dedicated music lovers from all over the world trek to the now famous festival grounds at Zilker Park to see their favorite bands perform for the dangerously rambunctious Texas crowd.
Tickets for the festival went on sale long ago, but if you are willing to pay a little extra, it is still possible to barter with one of the countless scalpers that prowl the streets of Austin this time of year. If that route doesn't appeal to you, Sunday passes are still available on the ACL website (but they will not be available for much longer, so jump on it). If you are a member of the proactive lot who actually purchased a ticket on time, I applaud you. I myself have never been able to buy tickets on time, for whatever reason (laziness). Right now, I'm frantically trying to scour up enough cash for a golden ACL ticket. Regardless of the manner in which you got your ticket this year, believe me when I say that you are in for quite an experience. Never failing to impress, the hard working bunch over at ACL have put together a lineup that is simply amazing. Obviously I can't go over all of the artists, but here is a little preview of which ones I am looking forward to.
Make your own ACL schedule!
Friday: Most likely playing to a crowd that has just gotten out of bed, Cults will be kicking off ACL with their own adorable brand of indie-pop. Their self-titled debut is full of infectious sunny day sing-alongs that are sure to make for a great live show.
After Cults, be sure to then check out Reptar. (Awesome name, right?!) I have no doubt that these guys are going to get more than a few people moving with their psychedelic dance tunes that remind me a little of Prince mixed with Portugal, The Man and MGMT. After the dance party, definitely check out Delta Spirit. Their high-energy songs have a unifying quality to them that will have the crowd locking arms and screaming for more.
The act that I am most excited to see, however, is the magnificent Kurt Vile. I've been listening to his album "Childish Prodigy" on repeat for a week now, and I simply can't get enough of his harsh, yet ambient Animal Collective-ish sound. He has an interesting approach, mainly utilizing drum loops and an acoustic guitar, so I am excited to see how this translates to his live shows. Kurt does have a backing band, The Violators, who will definitely help to make the droning, subdued tunes more exciting for the crowd.
Newcomers, Foster The People, are definitely going to be drawing a massive amount of people over to their stage thanks to the massive success of their hit song, "Pumped Up Kicks," so if you can get anywhere near the stage, I congratulate you on your dedication and persistence. Lastly, in what is going to be the most difficult dilemma that some people have ever faced, attendees are going to have to make a choice between seeing Coldplay or Kanye. No one can make this decision for you, but if worst comes to worst, you can always flip a coin. I'm going with Coldplay.
Saturday: With the crowd slightly more, shall we say "drowsy" (hung-over), than the morning before, ACL won't be packed until around 12:30 p.m. This will give you a chance to get a good spot for one of my favorite acts right now — Twin Shadow. The name of the group is actually the stage name for front man and songwriter George Lewis Junior, but once you see these guys live it becomes clear that Twin Shadow is meant to be a band, not just a solo act.
Their sound can best be described as woozy 80's nostalgia pop similar to the likes of Beach House. Fans ofdance bands like Chromeo will also get a kick out of these guys so be sure to park yourself front and center. I mean it!
Iron & Wine are sure to put on a peaceful set.. It will also most likely be the "it's so hot I have to take a nap immediately" performance of the day, so be sure to head their way for a relaxing set of hippie lullabies mixed with louder rock tunes. Afterwards, with the crowd now refreshed and the sun slowly setting, it will be time for dance freaks, Cut Copy, to take the stage. I saw these guys at this year's Free Press Summer Fest in Houston and they had the entire crowd moving and grooving by the first song. If you haven't let your freak flag fly by this time in the festival, prepare to fly it high. The end of the night presents yet another tough choice between My Morning Jacket and Stevie Wonder. This is an easy one for me though because it's freakin' Stevie Wonder.

Standing up for freedom at UNESCO
Monday, February 25, 2013 | 8:02 PM
Labels: France, Free Expression, Internet Governance
The Internet is the world's biggest economic and social success story of the past three decades, fueling free expression on an unprecedented scale. Built from the bottom-up, powered by the people, private business, technical experts, civil society groups and governments all have joined together to write an amazing narrative. Yet this construction is now under threat. Many governments want to impose government control over the Net, and many are attempting to use the United Nations to achieve this goal.
Fortunately, many parts of the UN are pushing back, and standing up for freedom. The UN's Internet Government Forum brings together the various Internet actors and represents arguably, the key part of the Internet's bottom-up structure. Another key UN ally is the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, which from February 25-27 is holding an important conference in Paris called World Summit on the Information Society +10.
Up to 800 representatives from governments, civil society and private business are attending UNESCO's conference, which will review the state of Internet freedom in advance of a head-of-state event scheduled for 2015. Hundreds of others will participate from remote locations, thanks to Internet connections. Google is supporting the conference and will be participating in the various panels and debates.
Each session will produce a set of recommendations. A drafting group will distill the main points from the recommendations. Crucially, the final document will not be negotiated by governments but developed through an open-ended multi-stakeholder conference.
UNESCO itself has proved a steadfast ally in the battle to keep the Internet free and open. Each year, it sponsors the World Press Freedom Award. Last year, Google supported the event which took place in post-revolution Tunisia. Within the UN system, UNESCO supports the multi-stakeholder system, insisting that non-governmental organizations be consulted and engaged in Internet decision-making. We look forward to the debates this week in Paris and hope the results bolster the free and open Internet.

Robert Alvarez, a nuclear waste expert and former senior adviser to the Secretary of Energy during the Clinton administration, has crunched the numbers pertaining to the spent fuel pool threat based on information he obtained from sources such as Tepco, the U.S. Department of Energy, Japanese academic presentations and the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO), the U.S. organization created by the nuclear power industry in the wake of the 1979 Three Mile Island accident.
What he found, which has been corroborated by other experts interviewed by AlterNet, is an astounding amount of vulnerably stored spent fuel, also known as irradiated fuel, at the Fukushima Daiichi site. His immediate focus is on the fuel stored in the damaged unit 4's pool, which contains the single largest inventory of highly radioactive spent fuel of any of the pools in the damaged reactors.

"All of this in my opinion is a sign of a desperate struggle going on involving the NRC," said Robert Alvarez, a nuclear expert at the Institute for Policy Studies. "The majority of commissioners were put there largely with the blessing of the nuclear industry, and are now pushing back over potentially expensive upgrades to the reactor fleet after Fukushima."

"They love the false dichotomy of prohibition and drug war versus total anarchy and selling heroin in candy machines to children," Tree said. "The goal, in my opinion, should be to begin a multi-year discussion about what a post-prohibition regulatory environment would mean to the region and the world."

Project On Government OversightVisit the publisher's website
We should note that these reports aren't the end all be all of government oversight—according to POGO Senior Investigator Peter Stockton and Institute for Policy Studies Senior Scholar Bob Alvarez, they are largely based on contractor self-reporting, and therefore aren't exactly the most hard-hitting evaluations under the sun.

"Spent reactor fuel cannot be simply lifted into the air by a crane as if it were routine cargo. In order to prevent severe radiation exposures, fires and possible explosions, it must be transferred at all times in water and heavily shielded structures into dry casks," Alvarez told Matsumura.

Pacific Free PressVisit the publisher's website
In recent times, more information about the spent fuel situation at the Fukushima-Dai-Ichi site has become known. It is my understanding that of the 1,532 spent fuel assemblies in reactor No. 304 assemblies are fresh and unirradiated. This then leaves 1,231 irradiated spent fuel rods in pool No. 4, which contain roughly 37 million curies (~1.4E+18 Becquerel) of long-lived radioactivity. The No. 4 pool is about 100 feet above ground, is structurally damaged and is exposed to the open elements. If an earthquake or other event were to cause this pool to drain this could result in a catastrophic radiological fire involving nearly 10 times the amount of Cs-137 released by the Chernobyl accident.
The infrastructure to safely remove this material was destroyed as it was at the other three reactors. Spent reactor fuel cannot be simply lifted into the air by a crane as if it were routine cargo. In order to prevent severe radiation exposures, fires and possible explosions, it must be transferred at all times in water and heavily shielded structures into dry casks.. As this has never been done before, the removal of the spent fuel from the pools at the damaged Fukushima-Dai-Ichi reactors will require a major and time-consuming re-construction effort and will be charting in unknown waters. Despite the enormous destruction cased at the Da–Ichi site, dry casks holding a smaller amount of spent fuel appear to be unscathed.
Based on U.S. Energy Department data, assuming a total of 11,138 spent fuel assemblies are being stored at the Dai-Ichi site, nearly all, which is in pools. They contain roughly 336 million curies (~1.2 E+19 Bq) of long-lived radioactivity. About 134 million curies is Cesium-137 —roughly 85 times the amount of Cs-137 released at the Chernobyl accident as estimated by the U.S. National Council on Radiation Protection (NCRP). The total spent reactor fuel inventory at the Fukushima-Daichi site contains nearly half of the total amount of Cs-137 estimated by the NCRP to have been released by all atmospheric nuclear weapons testing, Chernobyl, and world-wide reprocessing plants (~270 million curies or ~9.9 E+18 Becquerel).
It is important for the public to understand that reactors that have been operating for decades, such as those at the Fukushima-Dai-Ichi site have generated some of the largest concentrations of radioactivity on the planet.

Dissident VoiceVisit the publisher's website
US nuclear expert Robert Alvarez notes that if water drains from the unit four "pool resulting from another quake [it] could trigger a catastrophic radiological fire involving about eight times more radioactive cesium than was released at Chernobyl."

The New York Times Green BlogVisit the publisher's website
The amount of plutonium in the waste tanks is uncertain. Savannah River was built to make plutonium, and the material in the tanks is what was left over after the material was produced in reactors and scavenged in chemical plants. But a fair amount ended up in the waste tanks, according to Robert Alvarez, an outside expert who formerly worked for the Department of Energy.
- March 20, 2012
EnformableVisit the publisher's website
"On average, spent fuel ponds hold five to 10 times more long-lived radioactivity than a reactor core," Alvarez wrote in his report.
"Particularly worrisome is the large amount of cesium 137 in fuel ponds, which contain anywhere from 20 to 50 million curies of this dangerous isotope. With a half-life of 30 years, cesium 137 gives off highly penetrating radiation and is absorbed in the food chain as if it were potassium. According to the NRC, as much as 100 percent of a pool's cesium 137 would be released into the environment in a fire," Alvarez wrote.

Austin >Restaurants > Halcyon Coffee House Bar & Lng
218 W Fourth St, Austin, TX | Directions 7870130.266841 -97.745753
Neighborhoods: Downtown
Halcyon cycles through various hot chocolate offerings, but if you happen to arrive while the (spiked) Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate is on the menu -- ORDER IT. It's naughtier than the boys stumbling out of Rain across the street, and laced with a coat-your-mouth macadamia nut liqueur.
Part coffee house, part tobacco store, and part bar!
Chill beats with Rev. Kathy Russell and free Tequila Sunrises and Bloody Ritas every Sunday 12-4pm
an enjoyable place to chill – small and mostly quite with soothing funky music playing from the vaulted ceilings comfy couches and pillows with brightly colored pictures hanging on the walls. You can have a varity of coffees/ teas or a glass of wine to compliment
wraps and deserts or just a good book. it also has a full bar in a coffehouse setting. very cool and taste full!
Citysearch Editorial Review – Situated on the bustling corner of 4th street and Lavaca, Halcyon has been a key favorite for those living and working nearby. The airy interior provides a suitable setting for typing away on one's laptop, studying, or socializing while enjoying a varied menu with fellow lunch breakers. Aside from the traditional coffee drinks, Halcyon offers a selection of teas, ice cream cocktails and a full bar. The ambiance shifts in the evening as candles are lit and Halcyon Coffee House turns into Halcyon Bar & Lounge. Popular amongst patrons are the do-it-yourself s'mores available for two and four people.
Good, BUT... – I work in this area and go often because it is close. The service here is awful. Slow, and then you usualyy don't even get what you ordered. The product is great, it is only lacking a competent staff.
It looks great, but....... – While this place has a great location and a beautiful remodel, I cannot get past the inept and inconsiderate service that I have received by the staff on several occasions. The staff seem disinterested in serving their customers and I've seen people stand at the register waiting to be served as several staff members just casually pass by without even an acknowledgement or a greeting. On my last visit, the cashier who was taking my order was conversing with another staff member as I was telling him my order. Of course he didn't get my order and I had to repeat it. As he asked me to repeat, he loudly stated, "I'm sorry, I have two conversations going on at the same time!" I'm guessing that the Austin hip crowd is only concerned with aesthetics because that's the only thing this place has going for it.
FABULOUS! – The service was indifferent, but the drinks were tasty. Atmosphere was funky and open. Fun (and old) hip-hop playing was a nice change as background noise for my computer work. Hooray for high-speed & free wi-fi! Just watch the time, or the parking nazis will be quick to ticket your car. Parking nearby is free after 5:30pm, tho!
lame – Halcyon, before it?s new face-lift, was a cool place to grab a coffee or a drink. The new and ?improved? version lacks any character with the one redeeming quality being the S?mores. The service is pretty bad ? long wait to get a drink when not that busy. The people behind the bar are not friendly and act like you are putting them out by asking for a drink. This place could be a nice location to grab a coffee. Not sure what happened.
Good for everything eccept eating. – Halcyon is good for smokes coffee and booze, has a relaxed atmosphere and is good for winding down with some friends. Not so great for pick-ups or dancing (they are a coffee shop). They do make some good coffee drinks but their bar is limited. They just had a face lift, so their sevice is a little slow. I liked the old Halcyon. I would have given the old Halcyon five stars.
awesome atmosphere – This coffee shop is by far one of the best in Austin. There are comfortable couches and wireless internet access. I tried their cappuccino and was blown away! Great choice.
I've tried twice... Maybe I have to be a hippie to get good service??? – Ok.. I eat and drink everywhere downtown... but I've tried this place twice and both times the servers / cashiers were rude to me and my girlfriend. I give up. I like the fact it's not a Starbucks, but the servers need to act like they like their jobs!!

My grandmother had a favorite critical category: "fine, but not for me." That's where I'd slotted "Switched at Birth," a teen-centric drama that looked commercial and cookie-cutter, judging from quick glances at promos. It took some persuading to get me to take a second look, but I'm glad I did.
Much of my distrust came from the fact that the show airs on ABC Family, a cable channel co-owned by Disney. Networks, like people, have personalities. FX, for example, is a smart jerk with annoyingly excellent taste. Showtime is a brilliant basket case who overdoes it at parties. USA is a suit who is surprisingly good in bed; Bravo is Andy Cohen; PBS doesn't own a TV. Among this crowd, ABC Family had always struck me as a conventional teen-age girl, all white teeth and scrunchies. The channel's flagship series is "The Secret Life of the American Teenager," the follow-up by the writer of the Christian soap opera "7th Heaven." At once prurient and prudish, "Secret Life" is a skillfully made series, but it's a toxic product, glamorizing teen-age pregnancy more than "Teen Mom" ever has.
Yet, more recently, and with little fanfare, ABC Family has taken to green-lighting series by female showrunners with idiosyncratic visions. Two years ago, the channel launched—and then cancelled after only ten episodes—my single favorite show of 2010: "Huge," a series about a fat camp, created by Savannah Dooley (the daughter of Winnie Holzman, the creator of "My So-Called Life"). This year, ABC Family débuted Amy Sherman-Palladino's oddball "Bunheads," about small-town ballerinas. "Switched at Birth" is the work of Lizzy Weiss, the screenwriter behind the awesome girl-surf movie "Blue Crush," but the show is rarely discussed among the TV digerati, possibly because many people assume from the title that it's an exploitative reality show. It isn't—it's fiction—but the premise is just what it sounds like: two teen-age girls discover that, as babies, they were switched in a Kansas City hospital, probably by a nurse. The situation becomes a local scandal. Yet the show doesn't approach that splashy premise as camp, but mines it instead for sly existential insights.
The central figures are the two girls, who are both sixteen: Bay Kennish (Vanessa Marano), who was raised in a prosperous family, with a jock dad, a perky stay-at-home mom, and a dissolute brother; and Daphne Vasquez (Katie Leclerc), the only child of a Latino single mom, Regina (Constance Marie), a recovering alcoholic who works as a hairdresser. A moody, underachieving artist in a family of just-do-it types, Bay was alienated from her family even before the revelation. The scandal lets her shed her skin: among other things, she can identify as a Latina from the wrong side of the tracks, instead of as a private-school-educated white girl. Jumping into boundary-crossing relationships and Banksy-type street art, she readily identifies with her new mother's more "exotic" emotional style.
In contrast, the athletic Daphne is deeply bonded with the woman who raised her; the revelation that Regina is not her biological mother is a threat to their tight unit. (As episodes pass, she gets further shocks: her mother, it turns out, knew about the switch much earlier. Her reasons for not telling the authorities have much to do with Regina's awareness of how society perceives her as compared with the stable, wealthy, white Kennishes.) Daphne is also deaf, having lost her hearing at the age of three, after a bout of meningitis, and her family is immersed in deaf culture. Although Daphne is drawn to the Kennishes, their entitlement puts her off. (Their first impulse is to buy her a car.) The girls become friends, although they get off to a shaky start, since Bay quickly recognizes that Daphne is the daughter her parents might have preferred.
Daphne's deafness was not part of the show's original concept: when Weiss pitched the show to ABC Family, the network suggested a plotline about disability. It was the rare network note to make a show more radical, aesthetically as well as thematically. Within its varied deaf ensemble, no one perspective dominates. There's Daphne, who lip-reads and speaks, and longs to succeed in the mainstream. There's her closest friend, Emmett (the outstanding Sean Berdy), who has a sardonic attitude toward hearing culture. (The two collaborate on a zombie film called "Dawn of the Deaf.") There's Emmett's mother (Marlee Matlin) and his feckless father (Anthony Natale), both deaf, who are divorcing, as well as Travis (Ryan Lane), a rancorous teen-ager who is willing to exploit his own "victim" status. The show finds tensions within intra-deaf relationships as well as hearing-deaf ones, including a lively romance between Bay and Emmett.
But perhaps most striking is the show's approach to the aesthetics of deafness. Conversations among deaf characters are silent, with signing and subtitles. While series like "The West Wing" and "The L Word," which also included deaf actors (well, Marlee Matlin), contrived ways to have hearing characters translate each scene, in "Switched at Birth" there is often no one to do the translation. Some characters refuse to speak; hearing characters are often bad at signing. During signed dialogue we hear nothing but a trickling fountain in the background, or the sounds of distant crowds. The result is a show that can't be skimmed: in extended scenes among deaf characters, whole minutes elapse, submerging the audience in a world that feels intimate and alive, rich with grimaces, grins, and other physical nuances we'd usually ignore.

Breast Cancer Health Center
Breast Cancer Screening Modalities
A critical factor determining mammographic sensitivity is the radiologist's interpretation. Studies have shown substantial variability in interpretation and reading accuracy among radiologists.[14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23] Some evidence suggests that using physician interpretation of actual mammograms influences sensitivity, specificity, or both, and a learning curve has been noted during the first few months of experience interpreting mammography examinations.[17,18,24,25] Whether this results from different overall accuracy or a shift in the trade-off between sensitivity and specificity, however, is not certain. The clinical significance of variability in radiologists' interpretations is not clear.[26] Identifying a radiologist who is more accurate than another is difficult.
High breast density is associated with low sensitivity. At all ages, regardless of hormone therapy (HT), high breast density is associated with 10% to 29% lower sensitivity.[7] HT, which increases breast density, is associated with both lower sensitivity and an increased rate of interval cancers.[27] High breast density is an inherent trait, which can be familial [28,29] but also may be affected by age, endogenous [30] and exogenous [31,32] hormones,[33] selective estrogen receptor modulators such as tamoxifen,[34] and diet.[35] Strategies have been proposed to improve mammographic sensitivity by altering diet, by timing mammograms with menstrual cycles, by interrupting HT use before the examination, or by using digital mammography machines.[36]
The specificity of mammography is the likelihood of the test being normal when cancer is absent, whereas the false-positive rate is the likelihood of the test being abnormal when cancer is absent. If specificity is low, many false-positive examinations result in unnecessary follow-up examinations and procedures. (Refer to the Harms of Screening section of this summary for more information.) An improvement in reporting mammography results has been the adoption of Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) categories, which standardize the terminology used in assessing the significance of the findings and recommending future action. A study correlating needle localization biopsies with BI-RADS categories showed that categories 0 and 2 yielded benign tissue in 87% and 100%, respectively, of 65 cases. Category 3 (probably benign) yielded benign tissue in 98% of 141 cases, category 4 (suspicious) yielded benign tissue in 70% of 936 cases, and category 5 (highly suspicious) yielded benign tissue in only 3% of 170 cases.[37] Studies have shown relatively little impact of false-positive test results on the use of subsequent mammography screening behavior, but false-positive test results may have long-term consequences, such as anxiety about breast cancer.[38]
International comparisons of screening mammography have found that specificity is greater in countries with more highly centralized screening systems and national quality assurance programs.[39,40] For example, one study reported that the recall rate is twice as high in the United States as it is in the United Kingdom, with no difference in the rate of cancers detected.[39] Such comparisons may be confounded, however, by other social, cultural, or economic factors that can influence the performance of mammography screening. No improvement in cancer detection was noted in these studies despite the higher recall rate.

Can You Hang?1 of 9
By Sara Tan
Displaying artwork in your home is an art itself. We spoke with HGTV star and artist David Bromstad about the eight simple rules for deciding just where to hang your photos and paintings and then putting them up like a pro.
On the Level2 of 9
A tape measure and a level are the most important tools you need when it comes to hanging art anywhere in your home. Bromstad suggests using a laser level. It will make the tricky task of getting frames even with the simple push of a button.
Nail It3 of 9
Hooks, nails or French cleats? It all depends on what you're hanging. If it's light (less than three pounds), a hook or nail should be strong enough to hold your piece on the wall. If it's on the heavier side, Bromstad suggests using French cleats, which are two metal pieces or two wooden pieces that wedge on top of one another. It's a heavy-duty solution that will ensure that your artwork stays put.
Mantle Piece4 of 9
When it comes to choosing that all-important piece to go over your mantle, make sure that it isn't wider than the mantle itself. "Otherwise, the piece will look top heavy," says Bromstad. After you've decided on the right piece, center and hang it so the bottom of the artwork sits three inches above the top of the mantle.
The Right Height5 of 9
Although sofas come in all different shapes and sizes, the center of the art should always be hung slightly above eye level (around 5-feet 8-inches to 5-feet10-inches for most). As with art above the mantle, art should also be centered above the sofa, regardless of any windows or doors that may take up space on the same wall.
Wall-to-Wall6 of 9
Clustering artwork on a single wall is trendy right now. To get it right, heed Bromstad's advice: "You want to make sure you have a plan. Take all your pictures, objects, whatever you're clustering, lay them on the ground and play with placement." The more pieces you have, the closer you should cluster them together. If you're clustering just a few pieces, leave more space between each piece to keep everything balanced.
Picture Perfect7 of 9
While you should avoid placing fine art in the bathroom (humidity levels can damage the piece), there are still plenty of options for toilet-friendly pictures and paintings. Try to find something that's both water resistant and small. Bromstad suggests going quirky, bizarre or cute. "Go with something unexpected," he says.
Power Prints8 of 9
Sun-filled rooms give you the opportunity to go bold with your artwork. Bromstad's suggestion? Look for images with a little metallic in them. "It's going to reflect the light and be really dynamic in the room," says Bromstad. If you are already set on a particular piece for a bright room, make sure that it has a UV coating to protect it from fading from the sun or add a piece of UV protective glass to the piece, available at specialty framing shops.
Smooth Things Over9 of 9
Despite following all the rules, even professionals still make a mistake (or two). If you've accidentally made a hole where you don't need one, pick up non-shrink joint compound and a putty knife online or from the hardware store. Fill-in the hole (or holes), let it dry and sand it. Repeat the process. When the wall is flush, prime and paint it. For more design tips you can follow Bromstad at @bromco.

If the Packers take away Brandon Marshall as effectively as they did in their September matchup, and the Bears stay true to character, there is no chance the Bears will score enough points to win Sunday.
That is the reality of their offense.
So when Marshall begs Packers defensive coordinator Dom Capers for single coverage, what he's really begging for is a chance for the Bears to win the game.

And even if the Packers again attack him with two-man (man-to-man coverage underneath with two safeties over the top) or with other coverages that put multiple defenders in his vicinity, the Bears still have to throw more balls to Marshall.
The Marshall show on the field must play on Sunday as well as it did Wednesday off the field.
In the first meeting, Jay Cutler threw to Marshall five times. He caught two passes. One was intercepted and two were incomplete.
That's all you really need to know about why the Packers won 23-10.
The Bears' dependence on Marshall is staggering. Historical, even.
Marshall has accounted for 48.6 percent of the Bears' receiving yards this year, according to STATS. No one else in the NFL has accounted for close to that amount. The closest is Calvin Johnson with 37 percent of the Lions' receiving yards.
The last time a player accounted for at least 48 percent of his team's receiving yards was 37 years ago, when Ken Burrough had 50.6 percent of the Oilers' yards in what was a very different NFL.
But with a career-high 1,342 yards, Marshall already has 279 more than Burrough had in that 14-game season.
Marshall has caught 41.2 percent of the Bears' receptions, again highest in the league by a wide margin over the Colts' Reggie Wayne (31.9).
No player has accounted for at least 40 percent of his team's receptions since Sonny Randle had 49.2 percent of the Chicago Cardinals catches in 1960.
To put the Bears' reliance on Marshall in perspective, consider that in 1942, the legendary Don Hutson had what is widely considered the greatest season by a wide receiver in NFL history. He accounted for 50.3 percent of the Packers' receiving yards and 43 percent of their receptions — which isn't too far from where Marshall is.
The Packers could not throw to Hutson too much that year. And the Bears can't throw to Marshall too much this year — because of how good he is and how much more reliable he is than the other options.
Has Cutler thrown some passes to Marshall he should have thrown to others? Absolutely. Are they more dependent on him than an offense ever should be on one receiver? No doubt.
But on many plays this year, the Bears have had a better chance by throwing to a covered Marshall than to another receiver who is open.
Marshall is a wellspring in a desert of a passing offense.
He has caught 64.3 percent of the passes thrown to him this season even though he gets thrown to while well covered a lot more than anyone else.
Devin Hester has caught 59 percent, Alshon Jeffery 57.6, Earl Bennett 53.5 and tight end Kellen Davis 41.5.

Valpo's Men's Basketball Schedule Highlighted by Games With Cincinnati, Duke
Friday, September 05, 2003A home game against Cincinnati on Dec. 2 and a road contest against Duke on Feb. 26 highlight Valparaiso University's 2003-04 Men's Basketball Schedule. The Crusaders, defending Mid-Continent Conference regular season champions, will play five consecutive non-conference home games against South Florida (Nov. 25), Cincinnati, Indiana State (Dec. 8), Wisconsin-Milwaukee (Dec. 10) and Loyola (Dec. 13).
The arrival of Cincinnati will mark the first home game at the ARC against a national power since Valpo hosted Purdue in the first game of the 2001-02 campaign. The game against three-time national champion Duke begins a three-game series over the next three years.
Valpo (20-11 in 2002-03) opens its regular season Nov. 21-22 at Final Four qualifier Marquette University's Pepsi Blue & Gold Classic. Following the five straight non-conference home games, the Crusaders travel to play in the Fiesta Bowl Classic at the University of Arizona on Dec. 28 & 30.

About two months ago I launched a customer relationship management (CRM) and email marketing system for an organization. The implementation utilizes Salesforce CRM, ExactTarget's email marketing platform, and Demand Tools for data cleansing and maintenance. For the most part, I'm very happy with the way everything turned out, but this type of project is not for the faint of heart. Implementing and maintaining a fully functional CRM is a big data management challenge, and it is a human challenge as well. A new CRM generally touches many departments and requires changes to business processes. Even in a small organization this is type of change is bound to encounter serious resistance. Luckily, in this case, we were only focused on... More >>
When theorizing about marketing campaigns there is often a tendancy to want to create very detailed segments and perfect messaging that speaks directly to the hopes and desires of various personality types and demographics. It's great in theory. The only problem is that hyper-targeting is very expensive to create and execute with any type of quality and creativity. Say you have 10 targets. This means that you have to create 10 separate creatives and manage all these additional creatives within your campaign. Then, if you are doing real marketing, you have to analyze the performance of the various creatives and campaigns designed for your targets and determine what, if anything, is actually working. I've found that it's smart to think carefully about whether targeting will have a real impact before pulling the trigger on a highly segementated campaign. Sometimes its best to simply do one thing really well. More >>
Breaking Bad has gotten somewhat moralistic this season, as Walter White's seamingly unstoppable streak came to an abrupt halt. The story of a smart loveable chemistry teacher with cancer, who uses his intelligence to intentionally/unintentionally establish a drug empire, has become a lesson in the fact that crime doesn't doesn't pay. This is interesting, because in past seasons it was not at all clear whether good or evil would eventually triumph and there was no seeming attempt to pass judgement through the plot or story telling. Judgement Day has now been set for Sunday, September 29, 2013. Things are clearly not going to end well, but it will be interesting to see how Walter White uses his smarts to finish things on his terms. Who knows? He might "win" even still. More >>
I pulled up Story Sync for Breaking Bad tonight, which is a second screen viewing experience for the show with polls, historical references, video clips, etc.. It was interesting also distracting and I preferred simply watching the show. The second screen experience is clearly best suited to sporting events, public debates, and other live programming where the additional information you are seeing gives you insight into what the eventual outcome will be. No information one could post about a pre-recorded drama will effect the outcome, so the second screen is much less interesting. I'll stick to using a second screen for live events where I really care about the outcome, in which case I might use 3-4 screens. More >>

I have a suggestion. Stop Looking at your analytics! Let me qualify that. Stop looking at your analytics for a few moments and focus on creating something great. Once you think you've got something, by all means jump back in an test it. However, don't go into work and obssess about whether you have 40,000 or 40,500 visitors on a given Sunday. At most stable companies these numbers are fairly consistant. Instead, think about what will double your audience and cusotmer base. It's very easy to slip from a healthy obsession with the numbers into general corporate naval gazing and chart polishing. Give your KPIs and ROIs a break today and see if you can come up with something completely new. Then test the heck out of it and subject your new product to intense analysis and iterative improvement. More >>
For all those NYC parents out there interested in tracking and ranking public school performance, here is the article and interactive data you've been waiting for.

I stumbled on this New York Times article that describes just how Manhattan centric the origins of the Manhattan Project actually were.
Manhattan was central... because it had everything: lots of military units, piers for the import of precious ores, top physicists who had fled Europe and ranks of workers eager to aid the war effort. It even had spies who managed to steal some of the project's top secrets... The borough had at least 10 sites, all but one still standing. They include warehouses that held uranium, laboratories that split the atom, and the project's first headquarters — a skyscraper hidden in plain sight right across from City Hall.

Imagine warehouses full of uranium in Manhattan today! It shows you just how different 1940's Manhattan was. Did you know that J. Robert Oppenheimer grew up on Riverside Drive and went to the Ethical Culture School? The Times also includes an interactive map showing some of the major sites of the Manhattan project.
I like to be a contrarian, so I thought I'd pen something about Nokia on the day of the iPhone debut. Personally think that Nokia and Microsoft are going to do quite well in the long run, if for no other reason than the fact that there are few other places Apple could go but down from where it is now. The first crack in Apple's cement started to show through today with the iPhone 5 map app fiasco, which Nokia cleverly responded to. The simple fact is that Apple is just not that good at making software. Anyone who has tried to be productive in iWork or manage their images in iPhoto should know this. Even the exulted iTunes is pretty clunky.
Apple's mediocre software chops have been masked by it's insanely great design and hardware capabilities and a series of smart partnerships like the original maps partnership with Google. Even the very intelligent choice to adopt a Linux based operating system shows that Apple doesn't really do software. It's just not their focus. Apple does the integration of software and hardware beautifully, but Microsoft and Google clearly beat Apple on the software side. Apple should remember that its many partnerships like Google Maps on the iPhone--despite the downsides--allow Apple to focus on what it does best, which is melding hardware with the software. No company or person can be a master of everything. It's a hard and important lesson--one that I'm still learning.. More >>
"When we meet Don Draper, he is sitting alone in an upholstered booth at a smoke-filled, Art Deco-appointed nightclub, sipping an old-fashioned from a rocks glass and scribbling ideas for the Lucky Strike cigarettes account on a cocktail napkin." -Mad Men's Manhattan: The Insider's Guide
The actual location is the Lenox Lounge, just up the street, which always seems to stay the same despite the fact that everything around it is changing at a furious pace -- just like most of Harlem these days.
Thanks for the intel Josh. I enjoyed our drink there last week. More >>

Djukic not counting chickens
Valladolid coach Miroslav Djukic is not taking anything for granted ahead of the home game with Zaragoza, despite a good first half to the season.
The Serbian's team sit in a comfortable tenth position with 25 points but Djukic is especially wary of Sunday`s opponents.
``Zaragoza are dangerous and away from home have won a lot of points. They are a fast side, solid in defence and counter-attacks well.
``We are deciding still who should play, I may rotate my side, there are players who are working well but not getting a chance``, he told local paper El Norte de Castillo.
Valladolid had a convincing 3-1 home win over Mallorca last Saturday, the first in five, but changes are expected.
Javier Baraja will come into midfield to cover the suspended Llums Sastre, while Djukic has been experimenting with a side that includes Carlos Gonzalez instead of Mikel Balenziaga at left-back and Javi Guerra in place of Daniel Larsson in the lone forward role.
Zaragoza's Portuguese forward Hector Postiga has underlined the importance of the game, telling the club's website: ``Winning games is the best vitamin a footballer can take, if we continue to win we won't feel tired, personally I feel good and want to score goals.''
Zaragoza sit three points behind their opponents in 13th place and will be without right-back Cristian Sapunaru who is suspended.
New signing Jose Manuel Fernandez from Cordoba who coach Manolo Jimenez has described as ``aggressive, fast with a good right foot'', should make his debut in place of the Romanian.

ALBUQUERQUE … Or "Burque", as the locals like to say … On the way down, Gregorio Oshá and I made a swing through New Mexico's biggest city (small chiles by Phoenix standards) to visit with Number One Son (and Gorio's older brother) – Rio Coyotl. And to see an old friend of Dolores LaChapelle – Mark Walsh. Mark led us on a lovely hike through the desert foothill spring flora of Sandia Peak, an oasis of wild above a basin filling in with development (if not on the scale of Arizona's hot spots). We feasted on barbequed salmon and had a bit of an adventure, coming back from a quick visit to Rio's bachelor pad and unable to get inside Mark's seemingly locked door (it wasn't) and not wanting to wake anyone up (they were waiting for us). We ended up sleeping on pads on the lovely back deck under windy skies – one of those traveling adventures that you'd never do on purpose, but look back on kind of fondly.
MCELMO CANYON … Part of our discomfort had been the royal digs we'd enjoyed the night before Burque, visiting my friend Susan Thomas in McElmo Canyon, where she's just build a most amazing home right across from Battle Rock and had a separate lock-off apartment under the main house that we stayed in – beds and breakfast and another lovely hike on a trail into the Canyon of the Ancients Monument – accessed through a gate along her back fence … Susan has a daughter, Francesca, who's Gorio's age, and who has horses – has had her own horse since she was born. It's been a while since I was around (barely) teen-age girls, so it was fun all telling stories and sharing tales.
SILVERTON … Getting back to Colorado was no relief from traveling. I made a blitzkrieg visit to the Silverton Caldera and the San Juan Hardrock Mining and Water Quality Conference sponsored by Mountain Studies Institute at the Kendall Mountain Recreation Center. Some 25 years after the Idarado Superfund Cleanup, I got an opportunity to explain what a unique and successful settlement it turned out to be. Having been on Gov. Romer's local committee that managed a win-win-win for Newmont Mining Company, Telluride/San Miguel County, and the environment … It's a good story, and folks there seemed to enjoy it … My buddy, Commissioner Pete McKay, who's also running for re-election this year, took me for a visit to LaChapelle Park that was created just north of town to honor its famous resident. It's a beautiful spot, with signs leading folks up to a bluff for a grand view of the town and a lovely stone circle, with pictures of Dolores, David and Ed tucked into a niche in the rock.
LEWIS-ARRIOLA … That's one of the stops between Cortez and Dove Creek and the middle school gym was where the Dolores Working Group has been trying to hammer out a collaborative alternative to Wild & Scenic designation for the Dolores River. It's a several-year process, but the group is close to making a recommendations, although there are still some boundary and fish issues to work out. It's been an amazing process. Peter Mueller gave an eloquent talk about collaboration, and it's amazing to see Repubs and Demcrats, conservatives and liberals, ranchers and enviros all working closely together – singing the praises of having everyone at the table. It makes you realize. Government may not work on the national or state levels, but locally and regionally we seem to do pretty good.
URANIUM DRIVE-IN … Suzan Beraza used Kickstarter to raise over $5,000 to start work on her Uranium Drive-In documentary. I was a proud contributor … West End folks are also trying to raise money to save their old Uranium Drive-In sign. It once stood on the road outside the drive-in itself – on the hill above Naturita. I remember watching a film at that drive-in when I came to the region 30 years ago. I may not be a fan of uranium mining or nuclear power, but I do love the history of a region – and the sign seemed to sum up a lot about the West End, where uranium mining was such an important historical boom (and bust). The sign itself is a classic drive-in come-on. It bounced around the region. Sat in front of a hilltop gas station in Nucla for a while. Now a Restoration Team has set up a site on Indiegogo and has raised over half their goal of $10,000 dollars to try and restore the sign and put it on public display. They only have a couple weeks left to meet their goal. I've donated to the cause. Check it out and send them a donation – www.indiegogo.com/Uranium-Drive-In-Sign-Restoration
Recombinant Physics
Let us not
the hope of wreckage, the
strength of shattering.
That which breaks
can mend with stronger bond.
re-arrange into new wholes
mosaic into patterns new.
Splinters sand to dovetail, dado,
and groove.
Unbonded elements regroup, reform, reforge.
But that which sits in
safe or wary neglect,
that which fades and crumbles
into dust,
can only blow away.

5760 Seminole Way, Fort Lauderdale, FL | Directions 3331426.050965 -80.209722
Fri-Sat: 11am-3am, Sun-Thu: 11am-11pm
We went to this place to try it out since we were by the Hard Rock Casino. The first problem was the air conditioning, or lack thereof. It was extremely hot in this place and I suppose to cut down on costs the restaurant decided to cut down on the AC on a 95 degree day.
The chips came out then which were not hot at all. When we asked the server about this he told us that they only make chips once a day, unlike La Bamba and real Mexican restaurants which make fresh chips all the time. In short these chips were El Stale!
Nonetheless, our meals came out then and the food was okay but nothing to write home about. This place certainly wasn't in the same league as La Bamba or even Chili's for that matter.
Finally the bill came out and to our surpise they whacked us with an 18% automatic gratuity. Are you kidding me, we had only five people in our party, normally at least 6 are required to get stuck with an automatic 18% gratuity. The waiter told us they put the automatic 18% gratuity for everyone, even single diners, as it is listed on their menu in legalese-super fine print. Sorry I just thought I was eating Mexican food, didn't realize I was signing a contract. In short, this place was awful. They are really stingy with their portions, A/C, and drinks, but don't mind sticking it to you on the bill and the automatic 18% gratuity. I am happy to say Adios to the Tequila Ranch...never again!
DISGUSTING!!!! – I did not think you could mess up Mexican food, Tequila Ranch has proved me wrong. The waitress was nice, but something is terribly, terribly wrong with the kitchen and the management. We ordered an appetizer based on our waitress' recommendation. Our food showed up and no appetizer ever arrived. We each ordered a burrito. My bf had a chicken burrito, and I had a fish burrito. Mine was ice cold, as if it had just been pulled out of the refrigerator. There was no cheese melted on top as I ordered. I think they forgot to even put it in the oven. I never send things back, first time for everything I guess. The burrito came back and it looked much better. So, I cut into it and took a bite...it was chicken. I'm allergic to chicken and really never eat it. I went looking for the manager. I asked two hostesses to see the manager, Carlos Garcia. My waitress came back and was apologetic. I asked her to speak to the manager as well. The manager did not come. She brought me a third burrito and we asked for the check then because we had to catch a show. This burrito was finally correct, but the food was not good. Barely mediocre. When I saw the check, I asked for the manager a fourth time. Honestly, we were there for so long, experienced so many problems, the whole meal should have been comped, or at least the burrito. Carlos Garcia, the manager, still did not come over when I requested him again. Ridiculous. The waitress ended up taking off the burrito after I kept asking for the manager. I got the feeling he was off somewhere else and they were covering for him or he doesn't exist. The whole experience was terrible. I've eaten at many of the other places at Hard Rock (the blue plate diner, council oak, tau, johnny rockets...) and all have been pleasant experiences. This place was gross!
Awful, Poor Customer service, and Rude Manager!!! – My experience was awful... I order the Chicken fajitas and taco bell was better. The chicken was tasteless and rubbery. My two girlfriends that was with me almost threw up the food they ate... The drinks are horrible and my water with ice was much better... I complain to the manager cause they charge an 18 percent for poor customer service and rude manager.. Please DO NOT go to this restaurant....
Don't bother to complain - Just don't go – Both the food and service are no better than a drive through. Ask our server Joe, they don't have the time to do what the customer asks. Write to Chef Carcia, but don't expect an answer !
With all the great eateries at this location this one is definitely one to bypass, unless you like Taco Bell!

"List price" is the suggested retail price provided to us by our vendors. We make no representation that a substantial number of these products have been sold or offered for sale at the list price. Actual retail prices in your area may be substantially different. Since we sell products on a national basis, it is not possible to know if our merchandise is sold at list price in any particular location or at any particular time. "You Save" reflects the difference between our price and the vendor provided list price shown on our sites. Since the list price may be different than the actual retail prices in your area, you may not actually realize a savings of this amount.
Manufacturers sometimes ask that retailers not display a price if it drops below a certain amount. The "Click here to see Lowest Price" message indicates that the price of the item is so low that the manufacturer requested that it not be advertised (that is, displayed). In a brick-and-mortar store, you would probably have to ask a salesperson what the price of the product is. At eCOST, by clicking on "Click here to see Lowest Price" you are essentially asking to see the price, at which point we show it to you.

Etching Ink
Etching inks have a particular stiffness and viscosity that suit them to printing in the intaglio process. An etching ink must impregnate the etched incisions on a copper or zinc plate and then hold tight while the surface ink is wiped away. Too stiff and tacky, and the ink cannot be wiped clean. Too loose, and the ink cannot hold detailed marks in the wiping process.
Whether you pick Gamblin Etching Inks or Charbonnel Etching Inks you will find a highly pigmented and professional grade etching ink. Gamblin offers one pound cans, the kind you would see lined up on a printshop shelf. We carry Charbonnel in a smaller 60ml tube.
