"I Feel a Lump. Now What?"
Our step-by-step guide to what to do next if you suspect breast cancer.
Step 1: See Your Doctor
Your suspicious finding needs to be thoroughly checked out, so make an appointment with your doctor. What's reassuring is that 90% of women under age 55 who detect a lump turn out not to have cancer. Here's what to expect checkup day:
- Clinical breast exam. Your doctor, using his fingers, locates your lump and also feels for certain clues. If the mass is soft, movable, and has a smooth oval or round circumference, it's more likely to be a cyst—a harmless, fluid-filled sac. If it's firm and fixed with irregular borders, it's more worrisome. Either way, your doctor needs to confirm what was felt. So, usually within the next week, you'll be scheduled for one or all of the following tests.
- Diagnostic mammogram. Unlike a routine screening mammogram—which takes less than 15 minutes, involves just two views of breast tissue, and should be a yearly ritual for all women over age 40—a diagnostic mammogram takes about twice as long. Because your lump needs to be looked at from lots of different angles, your breast is compressed between two plastic plates in additional uncomfortable ways during the exam. The squeeze will feel less severe if you take an over-the-counter pain medicine, such as ibuprofen, at least 30 minutes beforehand.
- Ultrasound. Women under age 50 tend to have dense breast tissue that doesn't always show up well on mammograms, so if you're premenopausal, chances are you'll need an ultrasound. The exam uses high-frequency sound waves to create images and typically takes less than 30 minutes. "It's especially good at distinguishing a benign, fluid-filled cyst from a solid mass," says Katherine B. Lee, M.D., a breast specialist at the Cleveland Clinic Breast Center. After squirting gel on your breast the technician presses a wand all around the tissue, which is pretty painless.
- MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). If neither the mammogram nor the ultrasound yields clear results, you may need an MRI, which provides a 3-D view of your breast. You receive an injection of dye that helps highlight abnormalities. Then you lie on your stomach inside a tube-like "capsule" for 20 minutes. You may be able to listen to music. If you're prone to claustrophobia, ask for anti-anxiety medicine.
"I kept thinking I was too young."
Five years ago Becky Cwiek, a 43-year-old mother of two from Brighton, Michigan, felt a grape-size lump in her breast after taking a shower. "I wasn't too worried. I told myself it must just be a cyst." Instead, it was an aggressive form of cancer that was caught early enough to treat successfully—all because Becky didn't blow off her discovery. "On the one hand, I was so sure it was nothing, but on the other, I did make an appointment to have it checked out right away."
Step 2: Get Ready for a Biopsy
Reality check: Just because your doctor wants a tissue sample doesn't mean you have cancer. As many as 77% of the 1 million breast biopsies performed each year in the U.S. turn out to be benign, according to a recent study. But if the images of your lump leave doubts about a diagnosis, a biopsy is the only way to be certain. Depending on how big your lump is, where it's located, and how suspicious it seems, you'll need at least one of these three procedures:
- Fine needle aspiration. This quick test, which can be performed in a doctor's office, is often done if your mass looks like a fluid-filled cyst. A superfine needle is inserted into the lump. If it's clearly a cyst, the fluid removed is non-bloody and easily drained. When there's any doubt, the removed tissues or cells are checked for cancer. If there's a pathologist on the premises to analyze the sample, you can have an answer in as little as 10 minutes (otherwise, you'll have to wait overnight). Expect to feel a prick and some pressure while the needle is inserted and the growth is located.
- Core needle biopsy. If the lump looks solid, you'll go straight to this test, which takes up to 45 minutes and is done in a hospital on an outpatient basis. First, your skin is numbed with an injection, then a surgeon inserts a special-tipped, hollow-core needle into your lump and surrounding area at least three times to remove small cylinders of tissue. In some cases the surgeon uses ultrasound to guide the needle, in others X-rays are used—either way, you'll have some temporary bruising and soreness and possibly a little permanent scarring at the needle entry points.
- Excisional biopsy. This is just what it sounds like: a cut in the skin in order to remove the entire lump and surrounding tissue so they can be looked at under a microscope. It's usually same-day surgery done with local anesthesia, but most experts view it as the last resort since it causes soreness and scarring, and doesn't always spare you from another surgery if cancer is found. "It's warranted only in rare cases, such as when a core biopsy is inconclusive," says Nora Hansen, M.D., director of the Lynn Sage Comprehensive Breast Center at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
"It didn't hurt at all."
Forty-four-year-old Belinda Smith had an X-ray-guided core needle biopsy last year. The mother of two, who lives in Orlando, lay facedown on a table with her breast placed in an opening; the table then rose so the radiologist could work underneath her. "It was like a mechanic working on a car," she says. A mammography unit compressed her breast while computer images helped pinpoint the area to be biopsied. "It was so cutting edge," says Belinda, who admits the process left her "worn out and achy the next day." Her biopsy revealed a small, early-stage cancer that was treated with a breast-sparing lumpectomy and a brief course of radiation.
Step 3: Understand Your Lab Results
Biopsy results usually arrive in dribs and drabs over the course of days or even weeks. Together, they make up your pathology report—a document that can seem like it's written in a foreign language. But if you do have cancer, you'll want to make sense of it, since it's key for deciding what treatments will be best. A "translation" of important answers your report contains:
- What type of cancer do I have? You'll probably find it described in one of the following ways:DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ): About 20% of new cancer cases are this noninvasive type, which arises in the ducts or tubes that carry the milk to the nipple and hasn't traveled to other parts of the body. Nearly all women diagnosed with DCIS can be cured. IDC (invasive ductal carcinoma): The most common kind of breast cancer, it starts in the ducts, invades fatty tissue of the breast, and can spread to other parts of the body. Still, more than 97% of women with early-stage IDC overcome it. ILC (invasive lobular carcinoma): About 10% of invasive breast cancers start in the glands (lobules) that produce milk. ILC is often found at a later stage than IDC because the milk glands are deeper in the breast tissue than the ducts, which makes ILC harder to detect by touch and mammogram.
- How aggressively is it growing? You can tell by your cancer's "grade," which is on a scale of I to III. A "I" has the slowest-growing, least aggressive cells; III spreads the fastest.
- What's the hormone receptor status? Some breast cancer cells have hormone receptors—molecules that allow estrogen or progesterone (or both) to activate the cells. The good news is that several new therapies block the hormones from reaching the receptors.
- Does the cancer contain the HER2 gene? Tumors that are HER2-positive tend to grow rather fast, spread quite quickly, and may need more aggressive, specialized treatment.
- What stage is the cancer? To describe how big the cancer is and how much it has spread, doctors use a scale of 0 to IV. The lower the number, the less extensive the cancer. More tissue may need to be removed (and lymph nodes tested) before you learn your cancer's stage.
The Fine Print on a Benign Biopsy
Don't breathe a sigh of relief: Some types of noncancerous lumps increase your chances of breast cancer in the future. In a study of 9,000 women, those whose benign biopsies revealed excessive or atypical cell growth were four times as likely to develop cancer in the next 15 years as those whose biopsies showed no abnormalities. "'Negative' is not a complete answer," says Stuart Schnitt, M.D., director of anatomic pathology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. "Ask for details and find out if you should have more frequent examinations and mammograms or consider preventive drug therapy."
Step 4: Explore Your Treatment Options
You may be anxious to "get the cancer out," but it's important to obtain a second opinion. "It could make a big difference in your chances of a cure," says Michael Sabel, M.D., an author of a University of Michigan study that found that 52% of women who sought additional input received new advice. Ask your local hospital for the names of breast cancer specialists. Once you have a second opinion you can choose your treatment, which typically will include some of the following elements:
- Surgery. Depending on the size and extent of your lump, your doctor may suggest breast-conserving therapy, in which your cancer is removed but most of your breast tissue is saved. If mastectomy (removal of your whole breast) is recommended, having a procedure to reconstruct your breast at the same time can ensure the best cosmetic results—and potentially spare you a second surgery. But only 24% of breast surgeons refer their patients to plastic surgeons to discuss options, according to a University of Michigan Medical Center study. "By federal law, breast reconstruction is a medical benefit that must be covered," says lead study author Amy Alderman, M.D. "So speak up and ask your doctor to refer you to a plastic surgeon."
- Radiation. Typically it's administered for six or seven weeks via an X-ray machine, but there's a newer one-week treatment that delivers radiation directly to the site of the tumor. Called partial breast irradiation, a widely used form is MammoSite. Apart from fatigue, there are few side effects associated with either type of radiation.
- Chemotherapy. Even women with early stage breast cancer benefit from chemo—they live longer, according to a recent study. Treatments, via an intravenous drip, typically are every two to three weeks for three to six months. Thanks to new drugs, nausea can be avoided. Hair loss and fatigue, however, are common side effects. So is "chemo brain"—memory and attention losses that may last 10 years afterward.
- Drug therapy. If your cancer is hormone-receptor-positive, you may benefit from tamoxifen, raloxifene, letrozole, or anastrozole, meds that help reduce the chance of a cancer comeback by 50%. Women with early-stage HER2-positive cancers can halve their recurrence risk with trastuzumab, a drug that's administered intravenously once every three weeks for a year.
Chemo Jitters, Conquered
Before leaving for her first chemo treatment early in 2006, Lisa Vitantonio, a 48-year-old retired nurse from Chagrin Falls, Ohio, began furiously cleaning her house. "My husband begged me to stop since we were late," she recalls. "I kept delaying. I was scared." But it turned out she was so well cared for she sometimes mused that her chemo appointments were her "spa" days. "I would lie on a comfortable lounger in a pleasant room for five to nine hours. Staff would come in to make sure everything was fine and to see if I needed anything," she recalls. "I read, slept, journaled, and watched movies."

Big Batch Small Beer
We really went big with the final beer for the upcoming wedding in a month. Not big in aroma, body, color or taste, but really big in size. A brewing record for me was made last Friday with a 13 gallon batch of small beer. This sort of volume, in a light style, will quench the thirst of their guests, while the two bigger beers will provide distinctive flavors and much more alcohol.
Just a few days before brewing, an edition of Zymurgy came to the door with articles all about brewing a small/mild beer as a big batch. This influential zymurgical coincidence happened right before brewing my first Tripel. Each time, the mag enhanced my recipe and approach for brewday.
For this batch, 15 gallons passed through a mash with only 14.3 pounds of grain. Borrowing some equipment from Felipe's new all-grain setup made this much easier. The mashtun was luckily filled to the very brim with mash-out water. It's cool to note that the volume lowers about a half gallon after absorption during the mash. After 4 gallons drained, Ryan and I proceeded to fly-sparge with an additional 8 gallons on the stove.
Knowing the final wort would get really thin, I made sure the acidity of the 168°F sparge water was around 5.3pH to prevent any tannin extraction (or so they say that's what happens). Never before running this much water through a mash, I was very curious to see how low the gravity would get as we sparged. It was cool to see the final reading at 1.007. See all the readings below.
This small beer was originally much lighter in color, but was deepened with some darker crystal malts to create a distinctive visual appeal among the other two beers being served. Guests will clearly see a difference in there cup, as the Tripel is straw-like golden, the Porter is ruby-black, and this one has a sunset amber hue to it. The deeper color will also give an illusion of being a bigger beer than it really is.
Two kegs of this ale will be served. One straight. The other will get an infusion of fresh lemon basil from the bride and groom's very own urban garden.

I have a few million rows in my database already. I didn't know about the PostgreSQL UUID data type when I designed my schema.
One of the tables has 16M rows (about 3.5M to 4 M records per shard), growing at about 500K records per day. I still have the luxury of taking the production system down for a few hours if required. I won't have this luxury in one or two weeks.

Two U.S. Beach Teams Unbeaten in Mexico
Kristina Harter, Communications Intern, Phone: (719) 228-6800, Email: email@example.com
USAV Facebook - @USA_Volleyball - @USAV Beach
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (June 8, 2013) – Two U.S. beach volleyball teams finished the first day of pool play undefeated at the fourth leg of the NORCECA Beach Volleyball Circuit on Friday in Toluca, Mexico.
On the women's side in Pool A, the United States A team of Summer Ross (San Diego, Calif.) and Heather Hughes (Fallbrook, Calif.) did not drop a set in the first day of pool play defeating Mexico's B team of Vanessa Virgen and Stephanie Burnside (21-12, 21-14) and later breezing by Nicaragua's Elia Torrez and Swan Mendoza (21-8, 21-9).
For the men, Brad Keenan (Westminster, Calif.) and John Mayer (Thousand Oaks, Calif.) came back from a first-set loss to defeat Canada B's team of Simon Fecteau-Boutin and Ryan DeBruyn in three sets (20-22, 21-19, 15-12). The team cleaned up play when they swept Costa Rica's Esteban Escobar and Jonathan Guevara (21-12, 21-14).
The women's USA B team of Emily Day (Torrance, Calif.) and Whitney Pavlik (Laguna Beach, Calif.) fell to Mexico's A team of Martha Revuelta and Bibiana Candelas in two sets (21-19, 21-14). They did grab a win against Costa Rica's Ingrid Morales and Natalia Alfaro for a 1-1 pool-play record.
The U.S. men's B team of Stafford Slick (Andover, Minn.) and Casey Jennings (Las Vegas, Nev.) also finished the day with a 1-1 record after a two-set loss (25-23, 21-18) to Grant O'Gorman and Samuel Pedlow of Canada's A team. Slick and Jennings later cruised by Costa Rica's Esteban Escobar and Jonathan Guevara (21-21, 21-14).
Pool play will continue on Saturday and the top two from each pool will advance to single elimination. The top four will compete in the semifinals and finals scheduled for Sunday.

First published: 2nd June 2000
"Professional Apache" by Peter Wainwright is one of the many books in Wrox
Press Ltd's "Programmer to Programmer" series, aimed at experienced Apache
users and web server administrators who are using Apache for the first
time. It does not attempt to teach beginners the basics of web servers and
With only 11 chapters and 10 appendices, this book has the least chapters
compared with other Apache books. They are organised based on tasks with
the exception of the first chapter which provides a brief overview on
Apache, networking, and HTTP for the benefit of those new to Apache and web
servers. The book is very comprehensive and packed full of information with
emphasis on performance, security, and some popular third party modules
such as FastCGI, PHP3, ApacheJServ, mod_perl, and mod_ssl (including
The book is written in a continuous narrative style with sufficient
examples and tables which make it easy to follow. The task-based
organisation of the chapters make it structured and relatively easy to
search for information, but it lacks eye-catching sections for notes, tips,
and warnings so does not encourage browsing. The chapters are organised in
a smooth and logical manner which starts with a short introduction to
Apache, whilst chapters two to four detail different methods of
installation, building Apache with various configuration parameters,
structure of configuration file, and some basic configuration directives.
More advanced topics include delivering customised and dynamic content, and
more heavy duty tasks such as fine-tuning performance, monitoring and
analysing log files with third party programs, and securing Apache with
mod_ssl. The final chapter provides detailed instructions on how to install
and use mod_perl, PHP3, and Apache Jserv.
Professional Apache does not list all the Apache directives one by one with
syntax and explanation, except for those directives provided by mod_jserv.
Instead the directives are introduced gradually through examples and
according to the tasks that they perform, exposing the reader to real-world
usage of these directives, leaving the lists of all the directives sorted
by module and name as appendices. This table of directives would be more
useful if it had an additional column referring to the page where a
particular directive appeared in the main text. Other appendices provide a
list of additional third party modules (commercial and non-commercial),
some commercial Apache variants, and a guick guide to regular expressions
used by Apache.
For those intending to set up a secure Apache server, extensive and
detailed information provides step-by-step details for building,
installing, and configuring the OpenSSL and mod_ssl libraries. Users are
shown how to install a private key, generate a certificate request and
temporary certificate, and apply for a signed certificate although it
doesn't cover setting up one's own private Certificate Authority.
The book doesn't go without some complaints. Some in the office complained
that the font of the main text was difficult to read after a long day's
VDU-gazing. More importantly, some explanations are not expressed clearly
enough to allow the meaning to sink in without the occasional paragraph
re-read, and some sections could benefit from diagrams to illustrate the
The best way to make use of Professional Apache is to skim through it page
by page to get a general idea of where things are. Experienced Apache users
can then home in on the sections they are interested in, but first time
users are better off reading the first few chapters thoroughly. Once you
are familiar with the book's contents, it will make a fine reference guide.
If you attempt to read it for the first time at the same time whilst
installing, building, and configuring your first Apache web server, you may
find it takes longer compared with reading it first before using it for
Although the book seems to be targeted mainly for those administering
Apache under UNIX, other platforms such as Windows 95 and Windows NT crop
up in sections comparing Apache on UNIX with its Windows cousin, explaining
controlling Apache processes on Windows, and installing and testing PHP or
Apache JServe on Windows. Users interested specifically in using Apache on
Windows will have to decide for themselves whether these few sections are
enough to justify the £35.99 price tag.

If you are you like us Halloween is a great and exciting time in the year where we get together with our children and their friends and have a great big Halloween Party! What is a Halloween party if you don't have the best Halloween Kids Games going? Kids like parties, but they'd rather go trick or treating. I don't really like the idea of having my kid run around house to house and get candy from strangers. It doesn't seem safe… have you seriously looked at the Sexual Predator list for your area? It seems like they are everywhere. Some don't even have to check in anymore, so you never know. My solution is clearly to take it up a notch and provide AAA Content for the kids. You just need to have the best halloween kids games around or they won't want to come back every year.
The way we handle that is to throw a giant party. We give away more candy than kids can carry, and the key here is the fun. We like to start off with a variation from the Martha Stewart Game "Pop Goes The Pumpkin". It is similar, but different. We call ours Pumpkin Pop Secret and it goes like this:
You make a giant pumpkin out of balloons that you have prefilled with pieces of a secret clue and some small candy that will help the kids get 1 step closer to finding the stash of candy and prizes at the end of the night. You number the balloons 1 through 35 and the kids roll a pair of dice to pop the first 12 balloons. (Re-roll if the number has already been popped).
That's phase 1. They take their candy that fell, and find their clue. They have to hold on to their clues because at the end of the game they piece them all together to read the entire thing, only then will it make sense enough for them to get to the next game!)
Phase 2 is why this is one of the Best Halloween Kids Games – it changes things up! This part of the game starts with blindfolding each kid one after another (pin the tail on the donkey style). Spin them around and turn them toward the wall with the balloons. Let them walk over and touch a balloon and (depending on their age, you pop it, or they do). When all the balloons are gone you go to phase 3 which is assembling the master clue! Once they figure out where they have to go to get closer to the sack of candy and prizes that the ghost stashed somewhere in your home!
[list type="check"]
[li]A Few Pins[/li]
[li]35 Balloons (Get a few extra you never know)[/li]
[li]A Piece of paper that you printed a long master clue on and then cut up into 35 pieces (number them for the small kids and let the big kids figure out the order)[/li]
[li]Halloween Candy!![/li]
[li]Scotch Tape[/li]
[li]A blind fold[/li]
[li]A set of dice (regular 6 sided dice)[/li]
[li]Sack of Candy and Prizes stash it away where the clue leads or wait for the next several games we will post every few days and give it away at the end![/li]
Take 35 balloons (any will do, the bigger they are the more fun the kids have)
Next make up a paragraph or two that clues the kids in on where the secret stash of Secret Halloween Candy the ghost in the (basement or attic or some other scary place around your house) buried!
Cut that paragraph up into 35 sections and number them 1 through 35 (or not depending on how old the kids are, teenagers love this game if you don't number it and the prizes involve something better than candy).
Now put the 35 clues into the 35 balloons along with a piece of candy and blow them up. (So you literally stretch the mouth of the balloon and tuck the clue inside it before you blow it up; it's easy if you got the bigger balloons!)
Tape the balloons on the wall in the shape of a giant pumpkin. If you are worried about your wall getting poked or scratched put something behind it and tape the balloons on to that. Their just pins, and if you have kids your walls are probably a little marked up from time to time anyway. The Mr. Clean Magic Eraser works wonders so let your hair down and "fahget about it". (Besides isn't that what husbands are for?)
Have the kids roll the dice for the first 12 balloons and then do a pin the tail on the donkey round for the rest.
See if the kids find the stash (if you are only doing the one game) or see if they can figure out where they need to go to play the next game (it's all up to you).
Have fun and make sure you have the BEST HALLOWEEN KIDS GAMES this year!

Safe stolen from Maine historic site found on riverbank 10 miles away by 9-year-old boy
WESTPORT ISLAND, Maine (AP) � A safe stolen from the Colonial Pemaquid historic site in Bristol has been found about 10 miles away by a 9-year-old boy playing on a riverbank.
The safe was stolen Aug. 18 or 19.
It was found last weekend in a cove on the Sheepscot River on Westport Island by Garrett Pinkham.
Garrett's mother, Alice Cromwell, tells The Times Record (http://bit.ly/17r1Eg6) the safe contained cash, a few rare coins, bank notes and 2014 state park passes.
John Bott, spokesman for the state Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Fishery, said Wednesday the safe had been used to store cash transactions.
Just how the safe made it so far remains a mystery. It's 10 miles as the crow flies, but a nearly 30-mile drive.
The burglary remains under investigation.

The other goodbye is to our church friends, The Foys!
Jay, Julie and Lincoln are moving to Houston, so we got together for a little shin dig on Friday night. I am happy for them, but sad for us.
And in other news:
I had my 24 week appointment today. Baby Katie looked great and weighs 1 pound 9 oz. She was moving around like an acrobat and was extra cute. I have been feeling great and eating like a champ. Thankfully I still have only gained 1 pound. To me this is proof that God loves me!

Open source telephony new star at TV producer
- 26 June, 2008 14:00
When TV production company FremantleMedia Australia had an opportunity to move to IP telephony during an office refurbishment, the open source Asterisk proved itself to offer everything required and more for the 150-plus handset deployment.
The company used a Samsung PABX for about four years and a replacement was driven by a merger, the refurbishment of an existing building, and a need for more handsets.
FremantleMedia's IT manager Alan Fear, said with IP telephony being "the buzzword", the team decided to evaluate the options.
"I knew about Asterisk and it seemed like an attractive proposition, but to give the organization a feeling of comfort we needed to get commercial support, especially as it is open source software," Fear said.
After searching the Internet Fear found local Asterisk integrator Digital Armour Corporation, which helped set up a 50-handset pilot.
"It was a little bit rocky to start with as it was a hardware issue," Fear said. "We were using a Digium card and the firmware was a bit funny, but once we got on top of that it was all okay."
When the refurbishment was complete, the Asterisk system was moved to the main office in an "easy migration" and now more than 150 extensions are available for the 120 staff.
The IP desk phones are mostly Linksys SPA942 four-line phones. During the testing phase FremantleMedia looked at units from Snom, Polycom and Cisco, and while "they all worked" Linksys was chosen as it was "good looking, functional, and easy to use".
"The previous system being proprietary gave us no scope to do anything other than what Samsung provided us so there was a distinct limitation," Fear said. "One of the biggest advantages of Asterisk is we can customize it to our needs with scripting on the server or by rethinking how you use the system. Take the integration of faxes, for example. You can do this with any PABX, but you need to bolt on another server. With Asterisk we can use 10 in-dial lines to deliver faxes electronically. That saved us about 30K by using Hylafax as our fax server."
Another in-house application of Asterisk is speed dialing to and from the security company, which Fear said was an easy way ensure direct communication.
"We now have an operator console on reception, that is a big plus for the receptionist," Fear said. "It's extremely reliable and a very good system."
Regarding cost, Fear said Asterisk cost about 50 percent of an equivalent system. The company looked at Mytel, and upgrading Samsung to IP and even with buying all new handsets it was still cheaper.
"On running costs we have saved money as we previously used an external conferencing company, but now use Asterisk's conferencing facility," he said.
The conference service was costing upwards of $1000 per month.
With voice and data on separate LANs, FremantleMedia has not had to purchase anything proprietary as the system comprises a HP DL380 box with 2GB of RAM, SAS disks running the Trixbox 2.2 distribution with FreePBX, and Linksys 24-port PoE switches.
"This means we can easily replicate our environment," Fear said.
The company bought 10 G.729 licences, but it is not using it as calls are not being placed over the Internet. External calls are serviced with Optus over the PSTN.
Asterisk also delivers voice messages to e-mail and redirects support calls to the OTRS helpdesk application.
"With the old PABX we were under maintenance and at the beck and call of Samsung, now we have absolute control over the same thing," Fear said.
Digital Armour CEO Maria Padisetti said FremantleMedia is a perfect example of how any business, big or small, can benefit from open source technology.
"FremantleMedia is a highly efficiency-driven business and if it can use Asterisk to its advantage with a proven time record of system performance, maybe it's time more companies evaluate this alternative for their businesses as well," Padisetti said.

Food Artisans: Cutie Pies
A different New York artisan every week.
"I enjoy the sculptural qualities of pie," says Alice Cronin of Cutie Pies. "Pie dough feels more like Play-Doh to me." As opposed to elaborately decorated cakes which, she says, "start looking like something else, even a fancy pie still looks like a pie."
Fancy pies have to taste good though, which Cronin manages handily. Her coconut cream pie, which she calls her "sentimental favorite," won first prize at last year's Led Zeppelin pie contest at City Reliquary. Her maple butter tarts, which are based on her French-Canadian mother-in-law's recipe, are three bites of flaky pastry with a sweet, gooey filling: almost like a pecan pie without the nuts.
She does offer a popular pecan pie too. "People gravitate to the bourbon pecan pie. Certain flavors are just triggers for people," she explains, like strawberry-rhubarb and key lime.
But while Cronin offers a range of traditional pies, she's also at work on more unusual flavors. "I'm starting to experiment with herbal flavors and vegetables," she says, using tomatoes in place of strawberries in sweet pies or incorporating a vegan cucumber-lime gelée made with agar agar. While most of her products are not normally vegan, she's happy to tailor her goods for people who have dietary restrictions. "Vegan and gluten free are the most requested options," she says, adding that since she has some food allergies herself, she's very sympathetic to others who do.
You can find Cutie Pies every Saturday at Smorgasburg and every Sunday at the Brooklyn Flea, or place an order through her site.

"Valle-Inclán had the sensitivity to capture the essential quality of life in my unhappy, comic, and beautiful country, and his Tyrant Banderas remains one of the most moving books about Mexico."
—Diego Rivera
"An erotic, anarchic and Galician poet of the grotesque."—Michael Billington, Guardian
"Because dictators have been a staple of Latin history, they're a staple of the Latin novel. Spaniard Ramon del Valle-Inclán broke ground in 1926 with Tirano Banderas."—The Miami Herald
"The radical innovation in the theater that came after World War I is known here mainly through the plays of Brecht. In Spain, the prophet of this new movement was Ramón del Valle-Inclán. . . Written in 1920, Divinas Palabras actually precedes Brecht's agitprop dramas." —The New York Times
"It is a dark, violent, gorey work whose unbridled lyricism cannot mask its many horrors. . . . Tirano Banderas, which Valle-Inclán wrote in his 20s, is Cubist in that its writing is highly fragmented, while its range of deep, intense colours is reminiscent of Goya. But its main characteristic is esperpento, a genre created by Ville-Inclán himself. Esperpento is a mixture of terror and comedy, in which a character from tragedy is reduced to the dimensions of a fairground huckster. Tirano Banderas is a farce written with a poisoned pen." —Manchester Guardian Weekly
"Tirano Banderas was the first novel to describe a South American dictator. It was written before other authors, such as Asturias and Garcia Marquez. . . . All the horrible things describe in the novel are still a very real threat in present day Latin America." —Lautaro Murua, Argentinian actor

McCallum Foote '14 threw five touchdown passes and ran for another and Middlebury College defeated Hamilton College 50-21 in a NESCAC game at Hamilton's windy and cold Steuben Field on Nov. 3.
The showdown between the two programs was the 33rd playing of the "Old Rocking Chair Classic," which Middlebury won for the 17th straight year. The Panthers lead the Classic, 25-8, and own a 40-15 advantage in the all-time series. The 50 points are the most by Middlebury since the Panthers routed Hamilton 55-31 at home in 2003.
Foote set NESCAC and school records with his 27 touchdown passes this season. Donald McKillop held the old school record of 22 touchdown passes in 2009. Foote finished the day 40 of 58 for 456 yards with five touchdowns and no interceptions. He has thrown five touchdown passes in a game four times this year.
Zach Driscoll '13 made his mark on the Middlebury record book as well after his 14-catch, 177-yard performance. Driscoll is the school's all-time single-season leader with 73 receptions, surpassing James Millard and his 64 catches in 2009. Driscoll also owns the single-season yardage mark with 1,010, moving past Tom Cleaver's 943 yards in 2004. Driscoll's career yardage record is now 2,133 yards. Cleaver had 1,974 yards from 2001 to 2003. Driscoll already has the career receptions record (162) and touchdown mark with 27.
Matthew Minno '16, who entered the afternoon with one reception for the Panthers this season, caught eight passes for 106 yards with three touchdowns. Billy Chapman '13 caught eight passes for 94 yards with a touchdown, and Matt Rea '14 led the ground game with 58 yards and a touchdown on a dozen carries. Jake Feury '16 made a 25-yard field goal and was 5-for-7 on extra-point attempts.
Tim Patricia '16 paced the Middlebury defense with a game-high 12 tackles, followed by Matthew Benedict '15 and Bryant Adams '14 with eight apiece. Matt Crimmins '14 forced two fumbles, Daniel Kenerson '13 had an interception and Zachary Faber '15 recorded the game's lone sack.
James Stanell '14 ran for a game-high 129 yards with a touchdown on 24 carries for the Continentals. Stanell moved into fifth place on the program's all-time list with 1,486 career rushing yards. He finished the day with 269 all-purpose yards.
Jordan Eck '13 was 16 of 31 for 151 yards with one touchdown and one interception. Eck also ran for 36 yards and a score. Hamilton gained 202 yards on the ground as a team. Joe Jensen '15 led the receiving corps with six catches for 70 yards. Jensen caught a touchdown pass for the fourth straight game and has five total this year. Simon Jia '16 added five catches for 42 yards. Garrett Hoy '13 made all three of his PATs.
Mike MacDonald '13 was credited with a team-high 10 tackles and blocked an extra point. Jared Kochenash '13 chipped in nine tackles and Austin Fisher '15 had his first interception.
The Panthers (6-1 overall, 6-1 NESCAC) went three-and-out on their first drive, but Driscoll pinned the Continentals at their own 1-yard line with a 40-yard punt. Hamilton moved the ball just four yards and Hoy's 31-yard punt was fair caught by Driscoll at the Hamilton 34. On the next play, Foote found Chapman wide open at around the 20 in the middle of the field, and Chapman bowled over a couple of tacklers near the goal line before he fell into the end zone with 11:16 left in the first quarter.
The Continentals (1-6, 1-6) answered late in the first. On third-and-2 at the Hamilton 44, Stanell ran straight ahead into the pile, made it through the line of scrimmage and outraced the Middlebury defenders for a 56-yard touchdown that tied the score with 1:55 remaining. Hamilton had the ball for 11 minutes in the first quarter.
The Panthers put the game out of reach with 30 unanswered points that spanned the second and early part of the third quarter. Minno started the run with 8:46 left in the half when he caught a 19-yard pass from Foote on a fade route to the right side of the end zone. Minno scored again on a 24-yard pass-and-catch with 5:24 remaining. He cut towards the middle of the field and caught the ball at the 5, juked a defender near the goal line and spun into the end zone. Feury capped an 11-play, 72-yard march with his 25-yard field goal with 46.8 seconds left. Middlebury led 24-7 at the break.
The Panthers also scored on their first two possessions of the third quarter. Foote dropped back to pass and scrambled 4 yards up the middle into the end zone with 12:28 remaining. Minno hauled in his third touchdown catch on a 16-yard play with 9:17 left. Foote found Minno on the right side and he toe-tapped in the end zone before he was pushed out-of-bounds for a 37-7 advantage. At that point, Middlebury had scored on five possessions in a row.
The Continentals attempted to answer the offensive barrage with a pair of quick touchdowns. Eck found Jensen in the front-right corner of the end zone for a 19-yard score with 4:44 remaining in the third. On Hamilton's next drive, Eck faked a roll out, and ran up the middle 11 yards into the end zone untouched to pull the Continentals within 37-21 with 1:11 left.
The Panthers countered with touchdowns on their next two drives to round out the scoring. Driscoll caught a 7-yard scoring toss from Foote with 13:18 remaining in the fourth quarter. Rea scored his touchdown from 20 yards out with 8:15 left when he scampered around right end and dove across the goal line just inside the pylon.
Middlebury racked up 28 first downs and 530 yards of total offense. The Panthers were 6 of 14 on third down and 2-for-2 on fourth down conversions. Hamilton honored its 11 seniors prior to the game, the team's last home contest this year.
The Continentals wrap up 2012 at Bates College on Saturday, Nov. 10. Middlebury attempts to go 7-1 as the Panthers host winless Tufts University on Saturday.

The Voice of Afghan Women
Almost a year ago, the Grand Council in Afghanistan, or the Loya Jirga, ratified a new constitution. The equality of men and women and the freedom of the press are guaranteed in the constitution.
But implementing these promises is a long and difficult process, as journalist Jamila Mujahed has reported time and again in "Malalai," the only women's magazine in Afghanistan. She has written about women's participation in voting and about the growing problems with drugs, for example.
"Malalai," however, also prints articles about very different things: make-up tips or fitness studios are discussed here too. The name of the magazine is not a generic woman's name: Malalai was an Afghan folk hero who became famous for resisting the British colonial powers and has been an important figure in the Afghan women's movement.
Media with means
After the defeat of the radical Islamic regime in Kabul at the end of 2001, Mujahed founded the magazine "Malalai" in February, 2002 with funding from UNESCO and the Heinrich Böll Stiftung.
Initially Mujahed and her assistants were able to publish their unique forum for women regularly in both the Dari and Paschtu languages. But since funding from the Böll Stiftung ran out in January, 2004, she and her editorial team have been struggling with financing problems.
The magazine has unfortunately not found enough financial support within Afghanistan. Advertisers, for example, have shown little interest: "Afghan businesses have not yet realized that they can reach a target group in our women's magazine. A media culture has yet to be established in this country, where we have had 25 years of war and suffering," she explains.
As winner of the Johann Philipp Palm prize for freedom of the press and freedom of speech, awarded every two years in Schorndorf near Stuttgart, the magazine will receive 10,000 euros—a much-needed boost.
The organization's board of trustees, in cooperation with Reporters without Borders, honored the "Malalai" magazine for "serving as a courageous example in the fight for freedom of the press and freedom of speech and in efforts to strengthen democracy and human rights, and for promoting the rights of women in Afghanistan."
A forum for the women's movement
For five years Mujahed, now 42, was not able to practice her profession under the Taliban regime; she was banished to living behind the burka. Mujahed secretly taught girls during this period.
Mujahed no longer wears the burka, at least not in the capital city, Kabul. "We have been able to secure some gains for Afghan women. Since the ratification of Afghanistan's constitution we have been able to make a large contribution by informing Afghan women about their rights as equal citizens in our country," Mujahed says looking back at the past two years of her work.
Resistance from conservatives
But her work still meets with resistance from Islamic and other political forces. There are also male readers of the magazine, says Mujahed, "but some men have always been against us. They try to hinder our work through fundamentalist, Islamic means."
This journalist and mother of five children doesn't elaborate, however, on the means with which her work has been hindered. "It is thanks to the new government that we have been able to do our work in these past three years, and we are certain that we will reach our goal. But only slowly."
The goal: Reaching disadvantaged women
The problems of women who live in rural areas and under completely different circumstances than urban women also receive copious attention in "Malalei."
In many remote areas of the country, traditional clan structures are still very dominant. Most women in rural areas still wear the burka, health care is abysmal, life expectancy is 44 years, and the death rates are very high for women and children. Every tenth woman dies during a pregnancy. Most women are illiterate.
Mujahed tries to reach these women, too. "Because we know that many people cannot read or write, the magazine has lots of pictures and illustrations. We hope that this helps them understand and sparks their interest."
Because the illiteracy rate is so high, the radio is also a popular medium in Afghanistan. The sole radio program for women, "Voice of Afghan Women," which Mujahed organizes with five other journalists, also helps her to reach more women for four hours each day.
Important steps for women's futures
Many steps are still necessary in order to "reach the goal of equality between men and women in the way we intend," Mujahed believes.
"The first thing is disarmament, so that security can be achieved across the country. Secondly, the entire population must become literate, especially those living in rural areas. Thirdly, women's financial independence must be secured."
The latest cover of the magazine offers what is still a rather new image of women for the Afghan public: a modern, self-assured woman in makeup and without a headscarf. Next to her the headline reads: "Women's equality: A tough goal—but do-able."

Spurred on by baseball fans upset that a carriage dispute has kept them from watching Padres games on
That's right. Coronado city officials are about to join the "Padres to the People" movement.
On the heels of the announcement that five members of the San Diego City Council will meet March 14 to discuss the TV impasse, Coronado City Manager Blair King announced Friday that he has invited local TV providers to the March 19 City Council meeting there "to give an update on the broadcasting of Padres games."
Representatives from AT&T U-Verse, one of Time Warner Cable's competitors, will attend the meeting, King said in a memo to Coronado's mayor and city council members. It's unclear if Time Warner will send a representative.
"The City wants to provide the information to residents, who have been contacting the City asking that they be informed on efforts to get the Padres on their local cable TV providers," King wrote.
Left unsaid by King was that Time Warner Cable is now the only one of five major TV providers that hasn't agreed to terms with
The March 19 Coronado City Council meeting starts at 3 p.m. at City Hall, 1825 Strand Way. That's a Tuesday.
What actual leverage city officials have in San Diego, Coronado or anywhere is unclear. A Time Warner Cable spokesman has characterized the dispute as a private negotiation between the two companies, but San Diego City Attorney Jan Goldsmith believes his city is not just an observer in these talks that stalled months ago.
In a Thursday letter Goldsmith sent to Time Warner Cable executive Melinda Wittmer, he referenced the deal that lets the company operate in San Diego until 2020 and wrote, "Please note that section 23 of your franchise agreement provides the City access to records concerning the operation, affairs and transactions of Time Warner."
A far from belligerent Goldsmith added: "Our request is being made in good faith without accusation or threat of any legal action. We simply believe San Diego residents are entitled to an explanation, particularly in light of federal policies."
I asked spokesmen for Goldsmith and for Time Warner Cable if the provision entitles the city to examine Time Warner Cable's financial records. Time Warner Cable didn't respond, and the city's initial response didn't clarify matters.
"Overall we feel it's not entirely a private matter as TWC asserts," Goldsmith spokesman Jonathan Heller emailed. "There is a public component to it and the franchise agreement clearly provides for a certain degree of transparency."
Heller responded to my request for clarification with this: "We're only asking for an explanation as described in the letter and memo. Reference to section 23 is to demonstrate that the franchise agreement envisions the City's access to information if relevant to delivery of service in San Diego."
In other words, it seems to me that the city could ask for unspecified records but isn't and probably won't. It seems the city could ask questions at this hearing, but do little more. Bottom line? The hearing is a chance for fans and city officials and also the TV officials to vent. And that's a good thing.
The San Diego City Council's rules committee will hold a public hearing on all this Thursday at 9 a.m. on the 12th floor of City Hall, 202 C St. Committee chairwoman Sherri Lightner has asked representatives from Time Warner Cable and Fox Sports San Diego to attend. I, of course, am inviting you to be there.
Time Warner Cable customers, email me. What do you plan to do?
And if you want to email the city's politicians, top execs at either Time Warner Cable or Fox Sports San Diego or the president of the Padres, here are all their emails.

The Benefits Of Having A Video Surveillance System In Lincoln Square
Lincoln Square can be a great place to live, study, and work in. Your home in the city can be your haven of peace. Your workplace can be your source of motivation enabling you to improve yourself. Your school can also be your source of learning preparing you for a better future.
However, like all places, Lincoln Square is not rid of crimes. Situations and things happen. We do not control the things and the people around us. Thus, it is a great time to start investing in a video surveillance system.
So, why do you need a video surveillance system in Lincoln Square anyway? Well having CCTV cameras in place can benefit both residential and business owners.
Benefits For Home Owners:
Do you really need to install a security camera in your home? Well, these benefits might help you make a decision.
- Reduces Premium On Insurance Plans
Certain insurance companies will reduce the premium on your insurance plan if you have a surveillance system at home. These companies are at ease that you are in a potentially safer environment reducing harm to yourself and your belongings. Thus, it gives them a higher level of comfort, a peace of mind that you (and your property) are safer to threats and are less likely to charge them.
- Provides A Safer Neighborhood
With security systems in place, the neighborhood has a higher probability of being safe. Thus, you are comfortable with your kids playing outdoors and meeting with their friends. Threats from outsiders are less likely to occur as having cameras in place will lead to them having second thoughts on committing a crime.
- Provides You With A Feeling Of Safety
Nothing beats having a peace of mind. When you know that crimes are less likely to occur inside your home, you are more likely to have a positive mindset. You have a sense of relief that everything in your household is running smoothly and nothing bad is going to happen.
Business Benefits Of Security Cameras:
If you think your business will waste money from having security systems in place then your head is on the losing team. The benefits of having them outweigh the drawbacks. Below are some of the reasons why you should invest in CCTV cameras.
- Enhances Worker Productivity
Enhanced productivity is not only achieved with the boss watching the employees' every move. With surveillance in place, various departments in a particular business can effectively communicate with each other which lead to enhanced work output.
- Allows For Conflict Resolution
Conflicts can arise from various factors and situations. It can be between customers and employees. It can also be between and among different employees. Because of video surveillance, Lincoln Square business owners can benefit from checking the video footage and learning which action to take on for a particular conflict.
- Allows You To Provide Your Customers With A Better Experience
Cameras go beyond what is recorded by the lens. With today's technology, commercial security solutions analyze the movement of people through and within stores. The analysis provides business owners with certain information such as attention-grabbing items and customer likes and dislikes. Through analysis of these data, businesses can conclude on what factors affect customer decisions thus providing their clients with a better experience.
- Minimizes Theft
Security cameras are a great way to prevent or even stop theft. Their presence allows prospective thieves to rethink their actions. With these in place, you can greatly reduce loss of items due to theft which leads to greater savings and/ or profit.
- Can Provide Useful Evidence
As we all know, crime cannot be prevented all the time. That's why we need a system for video surveillance. Lincoln Square is not an exception. When your business takes a hit, the CCTV footage can be useful in providing evidence for various crimes. These can be utilized to put the people responsible for the crime under the bars.
- Allows For Monitoring In Real-Time
While you are away from your place of business, you can monitor your establishment through your mobile phone or laptop in real-time. This is especially useful when you are on a vacation. You need not worry about what is happening while you are far from your business. With security cameras, you can see what is happening in real-time and make an important decision should an emergency arise.
- Enhances Safety
Employee safety is a very important factor when it comes to businesses. This is where CCTV cameras can be an advantage. Lone workers can be monitored real-time. When accidents happen, the person concerned can be helped out immediately. Surveillance systems are also necessary to comply with rules and regulations for safety.
- Allows You To Control Access To Your Premises
With a camera system in place, you are able to monitor which persons have access to your business establishment. Your place is secured knowing that you are able to identify those who are entering or exiting your premises. You can even deny access to those who are deemed suspicious thus ensuring the safety of your employees, your items and your business in general.
- Helps You Save More Money
Security cameras can actually save you more money than you think. Though the initial phase of installing a security system would mean shelling out money, you can save more through the reduction of theft and possible damage to your business (e.g. employees, items, and the establishment itself). In addition, improved productivity through monitoring can mean improved work output and profit. Plus, providing a great customer experience would mean increased likelihood of them spending their money on your business.
As you might realize, having video surveillance systems in place can be both beneficial to families and businesses. We can never know what will happen in the future. With CCTV cameras in place, you are given a higher chance of minimizing crimes and improving your quality of life at home and at work.

Even with a bevy of surfers, skaters, and snowboarders as investors; awesome brewing talent lured from Left Coast Brewery and Maui Brewing Company; and a distribution plan that will help them reach many people very quickly; the buzz about newcomer Saint Archer Brewery (9550 Distribution Avenue, Mira Mesa) is more of a hum. Local craft beer fans recognize the name, but seem less enthused than might be expected about their beers—a blonde ale, pale ale, and India pale ale.
In this day and age of sour ales, triple IPAs, and barrel-aged everything, it's tough to get excited about a trio of offerings that, by standards in the ultra-craft hotbed of American brewing, is a bit pedestrian; the type of line-up one might have encountered at a brewpub back in the mid-nineties. I'll come right out and admit that no change of underpants was necessary for me when I encountered my first bottle of Saint Archer beer, but I was jazzed to get a taste as I believe that, with the personalities behind the business and the potential reach they provide the business, this operation has the chance to convert many a crap beer drinker into craft beer drinkers.
My first sip of the rookie brewery's wares was Saint Archer Blonde Ale. Blonde is a vague term where beer is concerned, so allow me to elaborate. This beer is a kölsch, a light-bodied, golden-hued German ale built to be easy drinking. That increased drinkability comes primarily from low levels of hopping. Some may read this and assume a lack of Lupulin translates to a lack of flavor, but they'd merely prove the assume adage right (minus the me part).
Saint Archer Blonde Ale pours crystal clear and has a nice, mild, and brilliantly balanced flavor. It rivals Ballast Point Pale Ale which, despite its misnomer moniker is a kölsch, as the best version of this style in San Diego County. Saint Archer's is livelier on the palate and edges out the beer formerly known as Yellowtail because of the brilliant, mildly bitter spike in its finish; a definitive kölsch characteristic that comes through perfectly with Saint Archer Blonde.
It's not like me to feel the need to write about such a simple beer, but brewers Rey Astamendi, Kim Lutz, and Cy Henley got this one right. It'll be nice to see what they do when they go beyond basic styles, but considering the company is built around mass production of beers like this, it's nice to see how well this one turned out.

"The High Road... not the Divide yet, many more miles to walk. But you got this far. You and that machine that shadows you."— Ulysses
The High Road entrance is a location in the Divide in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Lonesome Road.
The High Road entrance is composed almost entirely of a highway that once cut through the center of Hopeville. It is now a ruin, complete with fallen skyscrapers and abandoned vehicles. The highway is, for the most part, contiguous, with just a few deadly gaps.
A commissary terminal is on the back of the truck just past Beast's encampment.
Notable lootEdit
- Marked beast face helmet - a unique helmet found on Beast.
Related questsEdit
- Just after the commissary terminal near the High Road Entrance, there is a large hospital cross sign laying on the road. When approaching the sign, Ulysses can be seen in the large building to the right of the Crow's Nest. He walks into the open, standing briefly in front of the partially obscured Exit sign in the building, then walks out of sight. Firing at him draws no reaction.
- Upon arriving on the High Road entrance; Ulysses will speak to the courier through ED-E and depending upon the courier's responses, an additional flag may be completed for the Most Likely To... challenge:
- Selecting "What makes you think this leads home?" will trigger another completion flag.
The High Road entrance appears only in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Lonesome Road.
- Xbox 360 When fast traveling to any of the locations in the High Road section of the add-on, there is a small chance that a deathclaw will spawn. The deathclaw appears on the compass as a red blip, but is nowhere visible until the player character passes a certain area. The deathclaw seems to have increased damage, as it can easily kill a level 50 player character in one hit. Going through the collapsed overpass tunnel seems to solve the problem. Four deathclaws may spawn on the High Road upon entering the it. The one that is standing on top of the trailer will charge and attack when seen, but sometimes may just fall off the road and die. [verified]
- PC Playstation 3 If, upon first entering the High Road, the player manages to open their Pip-Boy menu before forcibly speaking with ED-E, once they exit their pip-boy the initial dialogue with Ulysses will never take place; ED-E will simply "say" "<happy beeping>".[verified]
