Wikileaks — short on intelligence
Maybe Wikileaks has come to the cynical conclusion that in the contemporary media environment the headline is more important than the story.
CIA Red Cell Memorandum on United States "exporting terrorism"
That sounds like damning material. Plans to insert US-trained terrorists into Iran or Venezuela perhaps? Is Wikileaks exposing yet more dirty secrets from the CIA's ugly history?
Indeed, if we are to define a leak as the revelation of confidential information in which the public has a compelling interest — information that must be published as a matter of conscience — then the latest offering from Wikileaks hardly qualifies being described as a leak. Indeed, the US intelligence community may actually regard the release of such a report as something that overall enhances their public image.
This Red Cell report has a couple of interesting details — confirmation that there are those in the US government who understand that Jewish terrorism has played a significant role in triggering Palestinian terrorism, and (reading between the lines) that CIA officers engaged in kidnapping can be perceived as American terrorists — but the overarching topic here is not a secret acknowledgment that the US government has been involved in promoting and exporting terrorism.
If Wikileaks wants to provide the best public service it is capable of, it needs to focus attention on improving its image. It has made the medium more important than the message as though we should be more interested in Wikileaks than the leaks. Instead of the brand "Wikileaks" signalling the release of important information, it now signals a theatrical drama in which Julian Assange demands a spotlight while he is supposedly jousting with the dark forces of government. Is that what he and his cohorts want to be known as? A band of attention seekers?

Re: Wikileaks — short on intelligence
People are passing judgement too quickly on Wikileaks. There are still thousands of documents yet to be released, and the 70,000 that are already available for perusal haven't yet been fully evaluated. There may be some merit in Joe Blow's jealousy theory. It seems to me that some alternative news outlets are jilted by the attention Wikileaks is getting from the mainstream, but paranoia could just as easily create the same impression.
I'm ambivalent about Assange and Wikileaks, but there's no doubt that the Collateral Murder footage was a major embarrassment to the Obama administration and not a good look for the U.S. war effort in the Middle East. Any reasonable warm-blooded observer should be as outraged as I was to see it, even if it isn't surprising. But Wikileaks detractors will say that was just the bait, a limited hangout operation to establish credibility. Maybe, maybe not.
The real issue here is the whistleblower issue. Regardless of the quality of the information, the importance of this lies in how it all plays out for Assange, Wikileaks and his sources. If Assange is jailed for example, or scared into revealing his sources under threat of imprisonment, it'll send a strong, unambiguous message to other potential whistleblowers to shut the fuck up. If it plays out that way there'll be one more reason to suspect that Wikileaks was a counter-intelligence operation. But if it doesn't play out that way, it will embolden other insiders and people of conscience to come out with what they know, which is clearly in our interests.
So far half of the blogosphere and the anti-war scene at large is playing accomplice to the vilification of Wikileaks in the public consciousness, which is disappointing. In the absense of any solid evidence that Wikileaks is not what it seems, surely it's better to simply watch quietly and wait to see what unfolds, rather than bitch about the unremarkable nature of the information, which can only be as sensitive as the security clearance of its source. It shouldn't be a surprise that most of these documents are pretty ho-hum. They're over there fighting the people of Iraq and Afghanistan and chasing terrorists that don't actually exist, and the average squad commander is hardly likely to report accurately on how many unarmed civilians his unit has murdered that day. Reports of that nature that actually make it back to the Pentagon are likely to be even lower.
One undeniable effect Wikileaks has had is to steal the spotlight from the struggling, credibility-deficient mainstream media. If I were the enemy I'd try to restore confidence in the establishment media, not expedite its demise. And there's nothing suspicious about Assange giving the MSM first dibs on the documents; anyone in his position would do the same thing, for obvious reasons. So while Wikileaks does arguably fit the profile of a COINTEL operation, there are inconvenient factors that disqualify it from being a textbook example.
And the idea that Wikileaks can somehow "focus attention on improving its image" is asinine, especially coming from someone who is clearly trying to tarnish it. Whatever 'image' Wikileaks has is the product of the media and analysts like Paul Woodward, not Julian Assange. Noteworthy is the odd enthusiasm of some like Aletho News, who seize the opportunity to post whatever they can find that's critical of Wikileaks -- even if it tells us nothing at all.

Re: Wikileaks — short on intelligence
The stupidest commentary on Wikileaks I've seen was written by Gordon Duff: Wikileaks is Israel, Like We All Didn't Know. Well erm, I didn't know, and so far no-one has been able to tell me why that is apparently so obvious.
Of course there's nothing in the documents about Israel. As Duff himself has acknowledged, Jews started the Iraq war -- they're not fighting it.

Re: Wikileaks — short on intelligence
Shall we wait with rapt attention for Wikileaks to expose that there is no Al-Qaida operation in Afghanistan?
Wikileaks doesn't need to -- the CIA has already admitted it.
Do you suppose that their selected "intelligence" will reveal that the US/Mossad have been conducting false flag terror ops within Pakistan?
That's pretty sensitive "intelligence", man. I mean, really. How many people do you imagine are privy to that kind of information? It would be on a need to know basis, so only the perpetrators, I would think. A Pentagon desk clerk is hardly going to have access to it.
Be critical. Think for yourself. And always be suspicious of MSM creations.
I'm suspending judgement, watching with interest, keeping an open mind and playing devil's advocate for Wikileaks on this thread in the context of its conclusive dismissal by people like yourself, who, you'll have to admit, have no evidence for statements like this:
The snuff show was candy for the supremacists.
I say maybe, maybe not. You say definitely, even in the absense of evidence. Who is being more rational?
I'm not cheerleading for Wikileaks. You won't see anything on my blog about Wikileaks, one way or the other. You, on the other hand, have decided you already know all you need to know. That's not critical thinking -- it's a leap of logic and textbook conspiracy theory.

Re: Wikileaks — short on intelligence
Wikileaks DID release warmongering propaganda aimed at expanding the wars to Pakistan and Iran.
Can you give me a link for that? Particularly on Iran.
It won't surprise me to see reports from the military saying that resistance is particularly strong across the Pakistani border. That's probably true, even if a lot of it has been manufactured. The Taliban has already told us directly that it's not responsible for attacks in civilian areas and that foreign intelligence agencies are behind those, but there does exist a legitimate armed resistance in Afghanistan and the tribal areas of Pakistan. Do you deny that? People don't just sit there passively when you bomb and occupy their countries. So U.S. reports about suicide bombers over the border, submitted by military personnel that don't know what is manufactured terror and what isn't, will not mean much to me.
Wikileaks DID release warmongering propaganda aimed at expanding the wars to Pakistan and Iran.
That's not my opinion. That is simply the content of what Wikileaks delivered to the NYT and the Guardian.
What's done is done. Wikileaks stands guilty as charged. No question about it.
You say Wikileaks is "guilty as charged", but there are three possible scenarios:
1. Wikileaks is a counter-intelligence operation and Assange is a CIA asset.
2. Wikileaks is not a counter-intelligence operation, but Assange is being spoon-fed watered-down and/or falsified documents from CIA or Pentagon sources that are designed to facilitate and legitimise the Middle East war agenda (includes the possibility that the Collateral Murder source may have been legit, and the COINTEL source with 90,000 'bombshell' documents may have taken the stage shortly thereafter).
3. Wikileaks is not a COINTEL operation and Assange's sources are legitimate whistleblowers with no evil agenda.
You need to prove to me that scenario #1 is true and that scenario #2 is false, but I'd be happy enough if you could convince me that it's not #3. What I require is evidence for your assertions (and so should you). I have no emotional stake in any of these scenarios, and since I haven't come out for or against Wikileaks, I have no dog in the race, unlike yourself. All I'm interested in is the truth, so don't misconstrue my interest in evidence as support for Wikileaks.
The absense of sensitive documents about false flag operations and Mossad meddling in Iraq and Afghanistan is not evidence. Just because something is classified it doesn't mean it will be a revelation, and it doesn't mean it won't be boring. Military personnel are just as clueless and even more indoctrinated than the public at large (according to a documentary I saw yesterday, 70% of troops believed Saddam was involved in 9/11 at the beginning of the 2003 war), so a certain degree of correlation with media propaganda is to be expected. Surely you know that 99.99% of the troops over there sincerely believe they're fighting a "war on terror" against dangerous, freedom-hating ragheads.
I'm not just prattling away for the sake of it, and hopefully I'm not entirely stupid. Blow me away with compelling evidence, even if it's circumstantial, and I'll thank you for it.

Re: Wikileaks — short on intelligence
I found this WSJ piece through your website --
Wikileaks Afghan War Reports Bolster Suspicion of Iranian Ties to Extremists
-- which is the kind of circumstantial evidence I'm interested in. The article doesn't link to the reports, and the various claims are easily debunked.

Re: Wikileaks — short on intelligence
"U.S. reports about suicide bombers over the border, submitted by military personnel that don't know what is manufactured terror and what isn't, will not mean much to me."
Yes, and Judith Miller's annonymous pentagon sourced revelations about Iraq's WMDs didn't mean much to me either. Your point being?
If false flag terror is being carried out in Pakistan to justify cross-border raids and drone attacks, and leaked military reports document those terror attacks as the work of "al Qaeda" or the Taliban, that will not constitute evidence that the reports have been fabricated. That was my point.
COZ, your third possible scenario "Wikileaks is not a COINTEL operation and Assange's sources are legitimate whistleblowers with no evil agenda" makes no sense at all.
Why would someone without a warmongering agenda cherry pick intelligence reports and select pieces that provide a casus belli against Pakistan and Iran to the NYT?
There are 92,000 documents -- how many of them deal with Pakistan and Iran? That's not a rhetorical question; I haven't spent much time looking into Wikileaks so I don't know. But for the 'cherry-picking' claim to have any substance you'd have to show that information in the leaked documents that benefits the war agenda is disproportionate to the information which harms it. In any case, I definitely agree that Wikileaks should have vetted the documents to ensure that it didn't release anything the media hawks could use to justify expanding the war into Pakistan and Iran.
The worst report was actually in the Guardian not the WSJ. Just as in 2003, they chose the most liberal venue (at that time the NYT) to release the most serious claims.
Are you talking about this? You'd save me a lot of time if you'd just show me what you mean, and it'd be cool if you'd answer my questions unselectively like I answer yours.
I see Obama is starting to use Wikileaks to his political advantage, which fits well with the COINTEL theory.

Re: Wikileaks — short on intelligence
Pretty damning stuff. Desire to engage in devil's advocacy waning rapidly. Your last paragraph, which I hadn't considered as a good reason to keep the documents out of the hands of the MSM, is pretty strong evidence for scenario #1. Either that, or conclusive evidence that Assange fucked up bigstyle, or is just plain dumb.

Deal could save Long Island College Hospital from closure
A deal could be in the works to save parts of Long Island College Hospital from shutting down, the Daily News reports.
State officials are negotiating a deal with unions and doctors that would make a complete closure of the hospital "less likely," a source told the News.
If an agreement is reached, SUNY Downstate Medical Center would withdraw its plans to close the hospital with the Department of Health. Officials would then work on a financial restructuring plan that includes the fate of Long Island College Hospital. Downstate is required to consider the input of labor unions and community representatives in creating the plan.
The unions and doctors would then drop the lawsuit against SUNY that has halted the closure plans.
The SUNY trustees first voted to close the hospital in February because of financial troubles. Opponents of the plan say the closure would be devastating for local residents who need emergency care.

Take a look at his last 3 seasons, both in receptions and yards.
2009:44 catches, 612 yards
2010:37 catches, 578 yards
2011:4 catches, 74 yards
You can take out 2011 if you want, since he spent most of the season injured. But, in 2008, Evans had 1,017 yards, so if you factor that number into the mix, it's clear that his numbers have been on the decline for some time.
Also, you have to think about the team that he was cut from. The Jaguars aren't exactly an offensive juggernaut. They are grooming a young quarterback, Blaine Gabbert, to be their franchise quarterback. Wouldn't a veteran receiver be a good idea to help a young quarterback along?
Yet, Lee Evans couldn't make that team, and that has to make you wonder why.
Is Lee Evans a decent player? Yes. But I wouldn't offer the ranch to get this guy, and his career has been a bit inconsistent, and in recent years he has been on the decline.

Categories > Original > Horror > Laughing Jack
Lousy Day at School0 Reviews
I can't pay attention in class, the mark on my chest must really be working hard to keep me focused not on work, but on thinking about Laughing Jack.
Smiling nervously, I glanced around. I could have sworn I saw a silhouette of Laughing Jack watching from in the forest that surrounds our school. I stared at the figure until Autumn poked me. "Hey! You awake?" I quickly jerked and focused my attention to my friend. "Um, yeah, but I can't... I mean, I don't want to tell you, sorry," I stammered, receiving a confused expression from my friend. I turned my head back to the woods and saw the figure walking back into the woods. I saw the shoulder collars. That had to be Jack. We then heard the bell ring and went to class.
During reading time, I was staring out the window, focusing on the woods, curious if Jack would come out again. Suddenly, his figure stood in front of the woods. He gave me a wave and just stood there.
I jumped, turning my head, only to see it was the substitute teacher, Mrs. Packer. "Oh, you scared me," I giggled nervously. "Are you okay? You seem really distracted by something. Would you tell me?" I turned my head back to the woods, and I could faintly see the silhouette of Laughing Jack, one hand on his hip, the other one shaking his pointer finger. I shivered and turned to Mrs. Packer, shaking my head as a look of sadness dawned over my blue eyes. "Why not?" she asked, bending over to be face to face with me, reminding me of when Jack was walking me home, when he bent over to be face to face with me. The thought made me shiver. "I just can't."
After lunch, Mrs. Packer had Michael Lavalee walk me to the school therapist. I don't know much about Michael except that he is really good with computers. "You haven't seemed happy lately, like, kinda paranoid. Is something going on?" he looked at me with a face full of kindness, a worried frown. "Yes... But if I tell you, horrible things will happen to me!" I broke down in tears. "Hey, hey, calm down!" he reacted, wrapping an arm around me. "If you ever want to tell me what's going on, feel free. I'm here for you." We then arrived at the therapist. After talking to the therapist, I didn't feel any better. School went on, and I was paranoid for the whole time. When the bus dropped me off at home, I told mom I was going to go sit in the backyard. I hung my bag on the chair and walked slowly to my backyard.
I was sitting on the dock by the lake when I heard footsteps. I turned around to see Jack standing at the start of the dock. Rubbing my eyes, I looked back and saw nothing. "I'm friggin going insane!" I yelled, holding the sides of my head.
"No, I'm here."
I turned around to see Jack standing on the dock now, walking closer to me. I just sat, facing the water. Laughing Jack bent over and pet my dirty blond hair, leaning in towards my ear. He then whispered something in a way that made me shiver. "Remember, if you tell the secret, horrible things will happen dear. Only pure insanity hiding in the devil's rotten mind could think of these things. Such horrible things." I then heard his footsteps walking away, and when I turned around, he wasn't there.

I feel like all I've been doing the past few weeks is packing. Then…moving, unpacking, now packing again—-only to arrive in Argentina, unpack, pack for weekend trips during my study abroad program, then pack for home, unpack…..then pack AGAIN to move back to Austin (only to unpack once more).
That is a lot of packing, moving and unpacking. People have to move around sometimes, especially when they're in college or still young. I've found that along with all of the material possessions that people pack, they also pack up relationships, emotions and routine. Every new place you go you have to acquire a new set of things, only to bring them along with you the next place you go. Then, sometimes, you go back somewhere familiar—and certain things can come out of the boxes and have more value to you than you ever remembered. Whether it be as special and real as a good, well-worn friendship or as random as a free plastic drinking cup you got from a restaurant where good memories were made—unpacking can bring up a wealth of emotions. Furthermore, sifting through the boxes it seems that one finds things to hold onto and things to throw away—which is not always the easiest decision in the world.
I love change, but I don't like not having a little stability in my life. While I have phenomenal friends and a supportive family, my foundation is not set in them. It's times like these where I think about my nomadic existence on this Earth and know that my Creator and Sustainer is unchanging. He is the same yesterday, today and forever (Hebrews 13:8). Whether I'm at home in Dallas sitting on my bed typing blog posts, in Austin studying for a test, visiting my sister in London or studying abroad in Argentina—the Author of my heart is unshakeable and will be with me wherever I go. His love for me and His love for His children is imminent and amidst this world. The fact that He allows us to experience tiny glimpses of His glory here is enough of a reminder that God is living and present and active. He protects me daily and blesses me immensely with fantastic experiences here.
The other night I was praying about Argentina (I get little spurts of nervousness here and there), and God just quieted my heart with the Spirit's whispers of His Sovereignty. No matter where I am, He is there and in control. Whatever happens to me, it does not surprise Him—He continues holding tightly to me. After receiving divine and affectionate peace from my Father, I wrote this in my journal: God-permitting, I vow to travel this world that He has made.
I truly believe that making my way around this world that God designed and getting to see His creation—not only geographic, natural creation but cultural creation and societal creation…and on the smaller level, getting to experience people that He created and learning to love them in the way that He loves them. I would hate to "settle down" forever in a town that I know too well—because that's exactly what it is…SETTLING. I know that He may call me to have a "home base" if you will, should I be blessed with a husband and a family, but I vow to go with my husband and take our children to experience His creation together as a family. We might have a house in a city but we will not be stuck there year-round—we will journey and take in all that He has fashioned in this world for us to enjoy and see reflections of Him within it.
As Christians, we are nomads. We wander here on Earth until He brings us Home. Our True Home. Maybe we don't realize it, but so many of us Christian nomads forget to live like nomads. We weren't designed for this world, but we try to "settle" (there's that word again…) in somewhere and wait for Him to return. Why wait when He'll allow us to roam in order to glorify and serve Him (and His people) AND in turn teach us more about Himself?
Learn from Matthew 7:24, make sure you're building your foundation on the Rock that is Christ as you wander from place to place so that when the torrential rains of difficulty come in your life, it doesn't wash away like sand. He will not quiver in the slightest when hardship blasts its way into your life.
24"Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. 26And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. 27And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it."
And also from Psalm 104:10-24, God has made SO much and we ought to travel so that we can write beautiful psalms that praise the work of God's hand as David does. Go see the mountains and the springs and the plants and the birds and the different foods and the wild goats and the rock badgers and the creeping beasts—-God made them with wisdom (said at the end of the passage). I am especially interested in the rock badgers…if they're anything like the honey badgers then I'm sold. But really…read this.
10You make springs gush forth in the valleys;
they flow between the hills;
11they give drink to every beast of the field;
the wild donkeys quench their thirst.
12Beside them the birds of the heavens dwell;
they sing among the branches.
13From your lofty abode you water the mountains;
the earth is satisfied with the fruit of your work.
14You cause the grass to grow for the livestock
and plants for man to cultivate,
that he may bring forth food from the earth
15and wine to gladden the heart of man,
oil to make his face shine
and bread to strengthen man's heart.
16The trees of the LORD are watered abundantly,
the cedars of Lebanon that he planted.
17In them the birds build their nests;
the stork has her home in the fir trees.
18The high mountains are for the wild goats;
the rocks are a refuge for the rock badgers.
19He made the moon to mark the seasons;
the sun knows its time for setting.
20 You make darkness, and it is night,
when all the beasts of the forest creep about.
21 The young lions roar for their prey,
seeking their food from God.
22When the sun rises, they steal away
and lie down in their dens.
23 Man goes out to his work
and to his labor until the evening.
24O LORD, how manifold are your works!
In wisdom have you made them all;
Since God made so many things, and all the things He made are good and reflect His glory—why wouldn't we live a nomadic existence?
Think about it…if being a nomad brings us closer to Him in ways that intrigue your heart more than you think settling down in the suburbs will—pack your bags.

*AP Poll as of 9/7/14
AUDIBLES with CBS Sports' Lead College Football
Analyst Gary Danielson
(On South Carolina Quarterback Dylan Thompson and Georgia Quarterback Hutson Mason):
These two quarterbacks are very similar. They both waited five years for this opportunity. They both played behind really durable, great leaders at quarterback. Now that they have their chance after a five-year wait, not a one-year offseason, the pressure of this game is magnified. That fully adds to the intrigue of this match-up.
(On teams' seasons so far):
There could not have been a bigger contrast between these two teams in their opening game. Georgia captured the nation with how powerful they looked against Clemson. Many people raised them up to say they are a legitimate contender for the Final Four. South Carolina dropped as many places as Georgia rose. These teams are at two ends of a spectrum for what an opening game can do to your season.
(On keys to the game):
South Carolina must be able to run the ball. With Connor Shaw, South Carolina's offense had two ways to run the ball – Mike Davis with draws and Shaw with scrambles and draws. Because Dylan Thompson isn't as adept at running as Shaw, more of the load falls on their tailback. Georgia can line up with anyone. They are balanced. They are dynamic. They have one of the premiere running backs in the county with Todd Gurley. They are deep at wide receiver. Their offensive line and system can hide their problems occasionally by being able to play-action protect.

'True Blood' recap, 'You're No Good'
We're almost a third of the way through Season 6 (which at 10 episodes will be "True Blood's" shortest season yet) and after last night's episode, I'm finally getting a clear idea of where this season is headed. While You're No Good was uneven and occasionally overwrought, the episode remained largely focused on our key characters and storylines.

Of this week's Class AA games, one way, way down the road might be biggest.
It's in Quitman, 13 miles from the Florida line, where No. 2 Brooks County hosts No. 8 Early County in a Region 1-AA matchup. You know, about 32 miles south of Moultrie, where AAAAAA's eighth-ranked Colquitt County hosts No. 4 Lowndes in 1-AAAAAA in another of only four games between ranked opponents in all classifications, in an otherwise calm week around the state.
Early-Brooks should pack excitement, considering the host Trojans (4-0) are one of only five 4-0 teams in AA, and the Bobcats (3-1) have just one loss. In a series that dates back to Brooks' 21-9 win in 1970, Early holds the lead, 19-13-1. Yet the Trojans have won the teams' last four meetings, including 25-8 last year at Early.
Here are other games to watch:
– Bleckley County (2-1) at Putnam County (2-2): This would have been both teams' region 4-AA opener, had not Putnam faced Crawford in a region Game 2 because of a scheduling quirk. Nonetheless, much is at stake in this one, as the Royals could not only win consecutive games for the first time this season, but jump into region championship contention by doing so. Importantly, this game is among 13 streamed live on GHSA Network, www.ghsa.tv. Putnam began its season 2-0, but has struggled with consecutive losses to Morgan County and Jones County. Bleckley is coming off a 15-8 win over Dodge County in which Tavon Ross threw touchdown passes to Derrick Farrow and Dre Pitts, according to the Bleckley Progress.
– Calhoun (4-0, No. 1 in AA) at Coosa (0-4): Here's potentially another tune-up for the defending state champion Yellow Jackets, who are Region 7-AA's only team with more than one win and another of the class' five 4-0 team. Calhoun comes in led by Taylor Lamb, the state's second-leading passer in all classifications with 1,252 yards and 11 TDs. He was 17-of-25 for 262 yards and three scores in last week's 50-14 victory over Dade County. The still winless Eagles have struggled this season and against Calhoun, having lost seven straight to the Jackets.
– Washington Wilkes (4-0, No. 6 in AA) at Union County (3-0): Somebody will suffer its initial loss in this 8-AA affair. Interestingly, however, the teams have met only once, in 1966, when the Tigers prevailed 54-14. The Tigers' start is their best since beginning 14-0 and losing the state championship game in 2000. The Panthers, who potentially are candidates to be ranked if they win, are a victory from matching their 4-0 start of 2008.
– Fort Payne, Ala. (4-0) at Lovett (2-2, No. 7 in AA): Lovett has its work cut out in its first meeting against its Alabama opponent. A win would be key for the Lions, who began 2-0 but have lost consecutive games. Lovett rushed for just 13 yards in being shut out 24-0 by St. Pius last week.

Beyond Mammography
Researchers say advances in breast cancer screening will need 'personalized touch' (Apr. 4)
Researchers at the Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, Fla., predict that advances in breast cancer screening will need a personalized touch because mammography is not a "one strategy fits all" technology. Their report appears in the American Journal of Medicine.
"Although mammography remains the gold standard for breast cancer screening, there is increasing awareness that there are subpopulations of women for whom mammography is limited because of its reduced sensitivity based on an individual's breast density and other factors," said lead author Jennifer S. Druktenis, MD.
The new study refers to a controversial disagreement on mammography screening issues. In 2009, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force — a panel of health care professionals charged with reviewing published research and with making health care policy recommendations — issued guidelines that women should receive mammograms every 2 years starting at age 50. They recommended against screening before age 50. Their recommendation generated controversy because of a well-established convention, which recommends that mammography screening begin at age 40 and that, for those with a first-degree relative with breast cancer, screening should start a decade before that relative's age at diagnosis.
As effective as mammography has been, the authors consider it an imperfect screening tool. The effectiveness for women with fatty breast tissue is as high as 98%, but the effectiveness for women with dense breasts can be as low as 36%. Women who undergo annual mammography may still present with cancers found only on physical examination, according to the authors. Moreover, some studies suggest that radiation exposure may contribute to an increase in breast cancer incidence in high-risk populations.
The authors suggested that optimal patient care will require a new screening paradigm with patient-specific strategies tailored to risk based on family history, age, genetic profile, and breast density.
"The sensitivity of mammography is inversely proportional to breast density," explained Mooney. "Owing to decreased sensitivity in women with dense breast tissue, but with attention to radiation concerns and a high rate of false positives, breast imagers are adapting with new technologies."
According to the authors, those new technologies include low-dose mammography; contrast-enhanced mammography (which evaluates blood flow in the breast); automated whole-breast ultrasound; molecular imaging; magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); and tomosynthesis (multiple mammographic "slices" through the breast, similar to a CT scan).
"Given the heterogeneity of the human population, a perfect imaging technology for breast cancer screening will likely never be found. In fact, because of this heterogeneity, the very concept of 'one strategy fits all' may be outmoded," Druktenis said.
The authors agree that new technologies will be increasingly personalized, integrating patient-specific and age-dependent factors of cancer risk "with selective application of specific screening technologies best suited to the woman's age, risk, and breast density."

Can You Spot the Fake CMJ Panels?
There's a lot to be learned at the many CMJ 2013 panels. "How to Survive as a Musician in 2013," for instance, will teach you everything there is to know about surviving as a musician in the year 2013, all of which can be learned in around an hour. Similarly, the panel discussion called "Jam Packed: The Explosion of Music Festivals" is guaranteed* to make you an expert** about the explosion of music festivals next time that particular topic is brought up in casual conversation***. (* not really guaranteed; ** "expert" used loosely; *** almost never). But, like any speaker program with lots of holes to fill, some of the panels seem to be reaching a bit--like a few haphazard ideas were tossed out over lunch and a couple of people decided "It'll do. Put it on the schedule." Is "It's going to be a lot harder for you than it was for me, kid" a real CMJ 2013? No. We made that one up. But it is the overarching theme to most panels. We've made up a few more panels below, and mixed them in with some honest to goodness real ones. Can you spot the fakes?
Full list of conference panels here.

A number of teams "� the Knicks and Raptors foremost among them "� are looking to deal for a point guard. Memphis' Damon Stoudamire, Seattle's Luke Ridnour and Miami's Jason Williams are three top candidates to be moved. Free agent Gary Payton is rumored to be on the radar of his hometown Warriors as well.
After getting off to a rocky start this season, Jason Kidd put up a stretch last week of three straight games with a triple-double. That gives him 97 for his career, soon to join Oscar Robertson and Magic Johnson as the only players to have more than 100 career triple-doubles.
Toronto forward Chris Bosh has no chance of surpassing Kevin Garnett or LeBron James in All-Star voting, but that shouldn't stop you from checking out his hilarious used-car salesman routine on YouTube asking for your vote. You can also see it on chris-bosh.com
Someone tell Isiah Thomas to stop reminding everyone he's staying on as both president and head coach of the Knicks. That's like Britney Spears continuing to tell everyone she doesn't need psychiatric help. Maybe instead of visiting Brit, Dr. Phil should make a trip to Madison Square Garden.
The rumors coming out of South Beach "� Riley stepping down as coach, Shaq being traded and Dwyane Wade leaving town once his deal expires in 2010 "� are almost as bad as the way the Heat have played this season. Don't worry, D-Wade; you're heading for a top lottery pick this June!
Now that he's back to his Sixth Man role, Ben Gordon has averaged 27 points and shot 50 percent during the last seven games. Unfortunately, the Bulls are 3-4 during that stretch.
Having lost two of their last three games, the Boston Celtics are officially in their first slump of the season. And it couldn't have come at a better time.
While that may sound like crazy talk, perhaps losing two of three after coming out of the gate at 29-3 isn't the worst thing in the world.
"We've just got to learn from our mistakes," Paul Pierce told reporters. "We're not going to win every game. We definitely know we can play better basketball than we did (Saturday). They key about winning, the key about losing is learning from mistakes and building on them."
The lessons learned from losing can't be learned unless games are lost, but one would think that the Celtics are actually quite adept at those matters, considering how woeful Boston was last season as well as the squads from which Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett came.
"Any time you lose, man, it's not a good feeling," Garnett told the media. "I have yet to find any pluses in losses, or any kind of sympathy in losses."
But no NBA team can know its true makeup solely from winning games, it's the tests that come up when a team is struggling that proves whether the chemistry and the cohesion are really there.
"The season is still going great," Allen said to reporters. "I'm not going to judge what we've done thus far by (Saturday night's) loss or a couple of nights ago. It's just disappointing."
And in true championship teams, that disappointment leaves a bitter taste that can only be washed away by the rinse-and-spit of another victory. So far, the Celtics have taken big gulps from their giant bottle of Listerine, going 4-0 in games following a loss and winning by a margin of 25.5 points. Responding from Saturday night's loss should need no extra motivation, as across the court will be the same team that destroyed them on the boards, 49-30, on Saturday night. The Washington Wizards aren't supposed to be a major threat to the Celtics with star Gilbert Arenas out of the lineup, but Saturday fit every definition of a "trap game."
Just don't expect the Celtics to fall into that trap twice.
For all the problems that were supposed to do in the NBA over the past few seasons — player dress codes, basketbrawls and referee betting scandals — nothing is as embarrassing as the biggest problem of the last few weeks: paperwork.
First, the league announced that the Atlanta Hawks and Miami Heat must replay the final 51.9 seconds of their game from Dec. 19, when the official scorer incorrectly ruled that Shaquille O'Neal had fouled out. Atlanta was also fouled $50,000 for their second scoring mistake in as many seasons.
Then, on Tuesday, the New York Knicks submitted an incorrect 12-man active list for their game against Chicago, listing Renaldo Balkman twice and omitting Quentin Richardson's name. However, game officials ruled Richardson could play, because he wasn't on the three-man inactive list.
Only later did it come to light that according to the NBA's Case Book, "Only players on the active list are allowed to be in uniform on the court and/or the bench." So not being on the inactive list wasn't enough; Richardson clearly had to be on the active list and therefore should not have been allowed in the game.
According to reports, there's a possibility of a fine coming down on the Knicks for letting him play.
Chicago rookie Joakim Noah was benched for one game by his team after a confrontation with assistant coach Ron Adams in practice, but then he was benched for another by his teammates.
Tired of some of his antics — which include showing up late and not doing what he's asked to do — Noah's fellow Bulls tacked on the extra game because they felt one game was not enough.
"They just told me what I did was unacceptable, and I'm just going to move on from here," Noah told reporters. "I've just got to accept it. What do you want me to say? I've just got to move on. There's nothing I can do about it."
Noah also said that while he doesn't agree with the decision, he does respect his teammates.
With the trade deadline coming up next month, there are a number of big-time players rumored to be on the trading block. Sam Cassell, Pau Gasol and Zach Randolph are just some of the names being bandied about, but all eyes are on Houston as the deadline nears.
Word is, Chicago is interested in acquiring oft-injured Rockets star Tracy McGrady. Houston has gone 7-3 with McGrady sitting out with a knee injury, leading some to speculate that he's expendable, especially if he can bring in Ben Wallace, who if rejuvenated, could give the Rockets the most potent big-man duo in the league.
One things is for certain — whether T-Mac finishes the season in Houston, Chicago or elsewhere, he is coming to Camp Chen-A-Wanda this summer (search for it on YouTube to see possible the worst ad-lib job in pro sports history).

Keep libraries free! So Say The Censors, So Say The Kids
Yesterday Indexed took a funny little look a library censorship.
paleofuture.com: The 1997 book Predicting the Future looked at past and contemporary predictions of the future and assessed their accuracy. A 1995 prediction by Bill Gates about "the internet as a self-publishing medium" was met with great skepticism due to the lack of editors and, believe it or not, a Dewey decimal system on the web. An excerpt from the book appears at paleofuture.com.
Money is scarce, but hopefully humor is in good supply.
When the well-heeled patrons of New York's venerable Morgan Library wander through its new exhibition of cartoons about money, there may be some hollow laughter as they ponder their own hard times.
The exhibit of 70 years of New Yorker magazine cartoons titled "On the Money" was planned over a year ago, before the full scale of the financial crisis that has plunged the United States and much of the world into recession became apparent.
Here's the story from Reuters with two cartoons included.
Some libraries are simply more progressive than merely checking out video games or ukuleles.
It's the question every parent dreads. "Mommy, what's a collateralized debt obligation?" Who wants to be outed as an ignoramus by a kid?

Porsha Williams says she learned that her husband Kordell Stewart filed for divorce this week when she read it on a website ... and says she's "disappointed" by his actions.
Porsha -- who stars on "Real Housewives of Atlanta" -- released a statement through her rep saying she is "disappointed about her husband's recent filing for divorce."
The rep says Porsha had held off on filing for divorce papers herself ... because she was committed to the marriage. She says Kordell had promised to work on the marriage with her.
Instead, Porsha's rep claims, "[Kordell] misled her and she found out about the filing in the media."
The rep says, "Mrs. Stewart hopes to resolve these personal issues privately with the support of her family, friends and strong faith."
As TMZ previously reported, Kordell filed for divorce in Georgia earlier this week. The couple married in 2011.
Now she can be gone with the wind fabulous too lolllll...ain't that a B....Porsha stuck her big ass foot in her mouth criticizing Kenya why she had no husband.
Porsha, really? Should have listened to Ms. Leeks and went to the strip club. Kordell is a control freak and plus, he wasnt all that great as a football player. Pack your bags take your **** and be gone,no kids involved. See ya bu bye!
Because he is gay thats why he filed he married her to play off all those rumors in the ATL lol
Aw that's sad I like porscha I hope she finds something bigger and better.
She's dumb as a stump, and he's a male chauvinist pig, stuck in another century.
There is more out in this world for porsha THEN him. I never really seen a love connection/connection between them two. It's sad and I wish her nothing but the best !!!
First of all, isn't he gay? I only ask because he has been arrested before, several times even, for soliciting sex with men....Helloooo???
She comes across dumber than a box of rocks.
Better off, that guy is a control freak.
That Kordell is one ugly brotha, but he did treat her like a brainless child. Maybe she'll find someone better.
Yaaaaaaay Porsha! He is giving you a free pass, take it! Your too good for his Ugly Controlling, looks like your Daddy, oh my bad, your Daddy probably looks younger and better than him anyways! You are Beautiful and can do so much better, in terms of looks and some one who will love you unconditionally with out everything having to be his way or no way! he will regret being a jerk off!
she should be glad she is rid of him. he treated her terrible. she seems to be a sweet person. he needs to get some gold digger, like alot athletes have. then maybe he would wish he had a nice lady, like her.
Porsha should consider herself lucky. She's young abd stunnigly beautiful He's clearly immature and not intelligent enough to appreciate what he has. Do you!
Kordell looks like the crack of my blanka de blank blank. he should know that if he did not have money. no woman would want to be with his ugly. ugly self
What a jerkoff! I watched one episode of this show and saw how he treated her. He was so sarcastic and mean. She cries to him about not being able to have a child (after she miscarried at 4 months) and he is just like "whatever". I want to punch him in the balls. She doesn't want to spend the rest of her life with someone like that. I'm glad he filed because she deserves 100x better than that dirtbag.

Bodily Expression and the Worship of God, Part 3
- Tuesday, January 21, 2003
No, expressiveness in worship is more than a cultural issue. Kneeling, lifting hands, shouting, dancing, standing, singing, bowing, and more are all appropriate ways to demonstrate our passion for God. But someone may ask how this gets worked out in a local church where people are at different places in their experience, maturity, and understanding. Excellent question. That will be our topic next time.
