My mom and my wife, Deanne, call me Richard, but everyone else calls me Rich. You can see me during the 5, 6, 10, and 11 p.m. newscasts, Monday through Friday.
I'm originally from Pittsburgh and graduated in 1988 from Penn State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in meteorology. I was commissioned a second lieutenant through the U.S. Air Force ROTC and served four-and-a-half years on active duty as a weather officer. I was stationed at Griffiss Air Force Base in Rome, New York, from 1989 to 1993. For six months in 1991, I was a weather detachment commander in Southwest Asia during Operation Desert Storm. While I was in the service, I earned a master's degree in business administration from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
When I left the Air Force, I took a job at WKTV in Utica, New York, where I was chief meteorologist for four years. I obtained the American Meteorological Society (AMS) Seal of Approval in 1994. In 1997, I left central New York to make Detroit my home as the weekend meteorologist here at Fox 2.
My wife and I, along with our twin daughters, love Southeast Michigan, where we enjoy all the great things there are to do. We especially like camping with our pop-up camper. We spend a lot of time in our backyard and often fire up the barbecue. When the house is quiet, I like to read. But since joining Fox 2, I have really enjoyed sharing my knowledge and experiences with young students who are interested in weather.

It's hard for me to pass by the deli section of the grocery store without stopping to take in the delicious smell of the rotisserie chickens. They smell so good! And did you know that buying one cooked chicken will typically only set you back $5-7, which is less than buying the same thing raw or frozen? And the work is already done! Inspired by eRecipeCards shares a year's worth of weekly meal and recipe ideas to use a rotisserie chicken that you won't want to miss. Think of all the money you'll save!

Narrow your search
Yelp is worth downloading for its massive database of reviews that help you decide if that hole-in-the-wall joint or five-star hotel is worth it.

Even with its slow performance and lack of search filters, Yelp's incredible database of business listings and user-submitted data make it a must-have app for every mobile user.

A Richmond, Calif., restaurant is so fed up with what it calls Yelp's "blackmailing" tactics, that it wants to become the very worst on the site.
With the iOS app, users can now add 12-second videos to their posts that show the atmosphere or layout of businesses.
Everyone's favorite purveyor of parodies, Weird Al Yankovic, debuts eight videos in eight days to promote his new album "Mandatory Fun." They live up to the name.
NY's Department of Health and Mental Hygiene uses software to look for words like "sick" and "vomit" in Yelp reviews.
The social network beefs up its foodie-friendly features by letting restaurants upload their menus.
The reviews site rolls out a new tool that lets customers book restaurant reservations directly from its website on mobile or desktop.
Shoppers can check into the reviews site to see whether restaurants, shops, museums, and other establishments accept digital currency payments.

Anthony Logistics for Men Customer ReviewsGreat eye product - 4/21/2014 7:51:44 PM It keeps your eye area moisturizer without being greasy at all. I've been using it for years; I'm 49 and most people guess I am around 40.Great product - 4/1/2014 2:07:17 AM Best facial cleanser! Great price! I ordered it in the morning and received it the next afternoon! Best prices anywhere and excellent customer service. You would be a fool to shop anywhere else!!Great For Everyday Use - 11/30/2013 6:56:35 AM I use this every morning, shaving or not. It really helps to clear the junk off that may'be the soap before couldn't get. It smells really awesome, if you don't like juicy orange citrus then this may not be for you. After applying, skin feels fresh, looks even and oil free. I use cotton pads, so I wish it wasn't a spray bottle. And that's really the only knock against it that I have.Great product! - 2/19/2013 6:58:11 AM My husband's face looks so much better, more hydrated and feels much better. He is a construction worker and out in the elements a lot and his face looks so much better (he says it feels better, too!)The pump has issues - 2/18/2013 8:47:05 AM I like the product itself, but the non-pump does not work the way a conventional (with a tube) pump works. You have to bang the bottom of the container on a hard surface to supposedly get the air out. Then you have to "pump vigorously" several times to get the product out which is sporadic at best. Sometimes you get very little, sometimes a lot more than what you need. You will probably wind up wasting a lot over the long run.Pretty Awesome - 12/14/2012 3:40:30 AM I've had this bar for months, use it every night and it seems to last FOREVER! I get some lather going, rub it on my face/neck and wash it off. The soap leaves my face shiny clean, not dried out and the fragrance is a pleasant mint.WORKS WELL, APPLIES EASILY - 11/18/2012 5:24:41 PM Simply apply a small amount over a clean shaved face. "Squirt," a little into your hand and work into facial area or your troubled areas. It dries fast and leaves your skin filling silky smooth. Helps keeping skin from drying out and leaving dried flaky skin behind that "blocks," the facial hair from growing out. After it has dried then apply your favorite calogne, the ladies won't be able to keep their hands off your face.disappointing - 8/27/2012 1:24:04 AM Had high expectations when ordering this item, but it was a total disappointment. Smells really bad. The substance is too liquid and does not glide well with use of a razor blade. Would not recommend this product at all.Great for sensitive skin - 6/29/2012 3:17:26 AM I generally don't like Anthony products, but this is one exception. Great cleanser for normal to dry, sensitive skin. Not at all harsh, has a gel consistency, and not overdrying. Highly recommend. And the bluish color makes it much more exciting to use than many other clear, plain, boring cleansers, though not necessarily more effective. But for my skin, this stuff is excellent.Broad Spectrum - 6/17/2012 12:22:44 PM Here's the thing that bugs me. The Skin Store promo description says this product is has "broad spectrum" sunscreen protection but the bottle and the box the bottle comes in does NOT state that it is that full level of sun protection. I am not sure to believe. It probably isn't broad spectrum.

Red Hat CEO: Open Source is Not Just About Cost
Red Hat is a company that generates over $1 billion a year in revenues from open source software. It should come as no surprise then, that the CEO of Red Hat sees being open as the key to innovation.
In the beginning of the open source era, however, incremental innovation was the norm. For example, many initially viewed Linux as a better implementation of Unix and MySQL, as an incremental innovation of a database.
With the emergence of cloud, Whitehurst argued that all of the core innovations are coming from open source, except for one.
"Name an innovation that isn't happening in open source - other than Azure," Whitehurst said.

Uselessd: A Stripped Down Version Of Systemd
The boycotting of systemd has led to the creation of uselessd, a new init daemon based off systemd that tries to strip out the "unnecessary" features. Uselessd in its early stages of development is systemd reduced to being a basic init daemon process with "the superfluous stuff cut out". Among the items removed are removing of journald, libudev, udevd, and superfluous unit types.
Open source is not dead
I don't think you can compare Red Hat to other Linux distributions because we are not a distribution company. We have a business model on Enterprise Linux. But I would compare the other distributions to Fedora because it's a community-driven distribution. The commercially-driven distribution for Red Hat which is Enterprise Linux has paid staff behind it and unlike Microsoft we have a Security Response Team. So for example, even if we have the smallest security issue, we have a guaranteed resolution pattern which nobody else can give because everybody has volunteers, which is fine. I am not saying that the volunteers are not good people, they are often the best people in the industry but they have no hard commitments to fixing certain things within certain timeframes. They will fix it when they can. Most of those people are committed and will immediately get onto it. But as a company that uses open source you have no guarantee about the resolution time. So in terms of this, it is much better using Red Hat in that sense. It's really what our business model is designed around; to give securities and certainties to the customers who want to use open source.
10 Reasons to use open source software defined networking
Software-defined networking (SDN) is emerging as one of the fastest growing segments of open source software (OSS), which in itself is now firmly entrenched in the enterprise IT world. SDN simplifies IT network configuration and management by decoupling control from the physical network infrastructure.

On Jan. 6, 1994, in an incident that shook the world of figure skating, Nancy Kerrigan was clubbed on the leg by an assailant at Detroit's Cobo Arena.
Former Fox 2 investigative reporter Scott Lewis was at home when he heard about it and immediately thought this was a fascinating story.
In 1994, Lewis worked for WJBK TV2 Eyewitness News. He was the first to report the news that attack on Kerrigan may have been perpetrated by people in rival skater Tonya Harding's camp. Turns out he was right.
On Monday, I spoke to Lewis over the phone to get his thoughts on the 20th Anniversary of the attack.
LEWIS: "There was so much speculation that the attack was random, maybe by a crazed fan or a stalking kind of thing."
(Play the video to see Jimmy Roberts report the day of the attack, including reaction from Kerrigan as she lay on the ground crying and wondering why she was attacked.)
Lewis worked as an award-winning investigative reporter in Detroit for more than 30-years, most of them with WJBK TV and the last couple of years with WXYZ TV, Channel 7 in Detroit.
Lewis had inside contacts who told him the attack was anything but random.
LEWIS: "A very reliable source told me the FBI was investigating Tonya Harding and people in her camp. I needed to verify so I went to Cobo Hall and started talking to people."
On Monday, following a weekend competition, Lewis headed to a hotel at Detroit's Renaissance Center where most of the skaters were getting ready to leave. A number of people said they saw Harding talking to FBI agents, adding more verification that an investigation was underway.
Lewis knew what to do next.
LEWIS: "I called Harding's room. She answered, but said she was busy. I called again a few minutes later, this time letting her know that I had information that the FBI was investigating her and her possible involvement in the Kerrigan arrack. She hung up on me."
Lewis later found out the FBI was in her room when he called her.
After obtaining three solid sources, Lewis reported the news on WJBK TV Eyewitness News that Harding and the people in her camp may be responsible for the attack on Kerrigan.
LEWIS: "We broke it on the 10 O'Clock News."
I asked him if he was nervous being the first to report this story.
LEWIS: "Yes. I called my then wife Cindy and told her this could go worldwide."
He knew the story could make or break him. The night he reported the news, only NBC National News picked it up. No other media outlets carried the story either locally or nationally. Being out a limb is not easy for any reporter and it didn't help that Lewis received a call from what he thinks was a TV Guide reporter.
LEWIS: "A guy from TV Guide attacked me, questioning my journalistic integrity. I told him I stand by my story. I think they were going to publish a story attacking me."
TV Guide never printed anything about Lewis. The day after breaking the news, he continued working the story and offered an update after he talked to the president of Tanya Harding's fan club in Oregon. The Harding fan painted her as 'rough around the edges' and described some of the people in her camp as 'questionable.'
Two days after the Lewis reported Harding as a suspect, The Oregonian Newspaper broke the story wide open, naming bodyguard Shawn Eckhart and Harding's ex-husband Jeff Gillolly as orchestrator's of the attack.
Lewis flew to Oregon to follow the story, but came back to Detroit after the worldwide media turned the events into a circus.
Eckhart later confessed to the FBI that he, Gilloly and Shane Stant organized the 'hit.' Stant was the person who swung the police baton.
LEWIS: These guys were a bunch of bungling idiots who left an easy trail of bread crumbs to follow. They registered rooms in their own name, frequently called each other on the phone, used a credit card for transactions and of course they left the police baton used in the attack in a garbage bin at Cobo Hall."
Lewis knows a thing or two about criminal investigations as a long-time investigative reporter who now has his own private investigation business. GO TO: http://scottlewispi.com/
I asked him where this story ranks for him.
LEWIS: It's definitely one of the biggest stories I've covered in terms of exposure, but I am most proud of the investigative pieces I've done where it makes a difference. Exposing someone like Lonnie Bates (former Detroit City Councilman who was corrupt and ripping off the people) and he ends in jail as a result of my report. Or convincing the Detroit Police that there was a serial killer on the east side of Detroit, killing prostitutes near Mack Avenue, then that person gets convicted and sent to prison, that means a lot more to me."
In the summer of 1994, Stant and Eckardt are sentenced to 18 months in prison. Gillooly is sentenced to two years in jail and fined $100,000 for racketeering. Harding gets probation and is stripped of her 1994 national figure skating title and banned for life from the U.S. Figure Skating Association.
Of course most of us remember the Winter Olympics in 1994, where Kerrigan won silver and Harding's skate laces came untied, literally, and she finished 8th. There's Karma for you. Olympic television ratings soared that year.

For the first time in the last decade, the rate of private health insurance coverage for all Americans did not decrease.
New U.S. Census data released this week showed that the number of people with health coverage increased from 256.6 million in 2010 to 260.2 million in 2011.
In Connecticut, the number of unisured residents dropped to 303,000 in 2011 from 397,000 in 2010, according to CTNewsJunkie.com.
This means that 91.4 percent of state residents are covered, while 8.6 percent are not.
Citing figures from HealthCare.gov, the news website noted that the drop in uninisured residents can be attributed largely to the federal Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare as it's known among the public.
In Connecticut, 23,000 young adults under the age of 26 were allowed to remain on their parents' insurance plans, the federal government reported.
But, as CTNewsJunkie also reported, it's unclear whether the 2011 figures are stastically significant because Connecticut enacted in 2008 its own legislation allowing residents under the age of 26 to remain on their parents' plans.
Read more about the U.S. Census figures here.
Here are some other highlights the federal government provided on the national Census data:
- The percentage of people with health insurance nationally rose from 83.7 percent in 2010 to 84.3 percent in 2011.
- The percentage covered by employment-based health insurance in 2011 was not statistically different from 2010, at 55.1 percent.
- The percentage of people covered by government health insurance increased from 31.2 percent to 32.2 percent. The percentage covered by Medicaid increased from 15.8 percent in 2010 to 16.5 percent in 2011. The percentage covered by Medicare also rose over the period, from 14.6 percent to 15.2 percent. The percentage covered by Medicaid in 2011 was higher than the percentage covered by Medicare.
- In 2011, 9.7 percent of children under 19 (7.6 million) were without health insurance. Neither estimate is significantly different from the corresponding 2010 estimate. The uninsured rate also remained statistically unchanged for those age 26 to 34 and people age 45 to 64. It declined, however, for people age 19 to 25, age 35 to 44 and those age 65 and older.
- The uninsured rate for children in poverty (13.8 percent) was higher than the rate for all children (9.4 percent).
- In 2011, the uninsured rates decreased as household income increased from 25.4 percent for those in households with annual income less than $25,000 to 7.8 percent in households with income of $75,000 or more.

While I did not read the book first, a lengthy one, I thought I would be able to keep up with the story line. Without the schema from the book, the supporting characters lacked a level of development in their respectives roles. Perhaps reading the book would have been a good idea and the story would have played out better. Perhaps. The effects, especially lighting was impressive, as was Spielberg's cinematography and ability to capture Lincoln's wit. Overall, I give the movie a 5/6 out of 10.

Steven Spielberg's Lincoln is truly a move for our times, which is to say a movie that informs a by-and-large ill-informed populace. Apart from those who value history and biography, most Americans see Lincoln as the other half of an amalgamated Presidents' Day. The film succeeds in touching on the profound sense of isolation and quiet desperation that marked the President's tormented life and on his equally profound inclination to rationality and instinct. Where it fails is in nearly every other respect, posterizing and nearly caricaturing virtually everyone else around him. The parade of a who's who of career character actors interspersed with a few stars who overact and over-dramatize detracts from Daniel Day Lewis' fine performance. Sally Field's fine portrayal of Mary Lincoln captures her fragility and hysteria but probably overstates her strong political savvy and will. In the end, we are better off imagining great figures from history through thoughtful history and biography and their own words rather than seeing them realized on the screen. But, then, most Americans wouldn't have much if any sense of who these figures were, and in the end, Spielberg and screenwriter Tony Kushner were counting on that.
— Tom, Philadelphia
December 18th, 201212:14 am
It's too bad, in discussing Kushner's writing of Lincoln's dialogue, that Mr Scott failed to recognize the large number of Shakespeare quotations interspersed throughout. We know that Lincoln knew his Shakespeare well, and that his interlocutors (or at least some of them) would have recognized his references. It is also fun to think about the playwright Kushner employing his knowledge of Shakespeare for the screen.
It's also a little disappointing that Scott doesn't see in Kushner's screenplay the carefully laid analogies to contemporary political issues, and the dramatic (and ironic) effect of reminding us, through an embedded liberal reading of history, of both the distance and nearness to us of the Lincoln narrative. No depiction of history can be apolitical, and the critic who ignores the artist's political take on past events is only doing a part of his job.

A film about our greatest president and the most courageous by two Jews, one of them gay, presented to our half white and half black president in the Oval Office. If there were an after-life Lincoln would be looking down, smiling.

A cinematic masterpiece in every respect. It restored my confidence in a violence-driven Hollywood, revealing that it is still capable of producing such inspired cinema--one that dramatizes Lincoln's determination to ensure that slavery would forever be outlawed. And it also ennobled a Republican Party that has since suffered an appalling decline in morality and mission.

Spielberg did so much better with "Empire of the Sun" and "Schindler's List." He can make a really good film from a historical record, but he didn't this time. Anyone who has watched C-SPAN knows how boring a floor vote is. Why have such an expanded roll call vote in the middle of a feature film?
I prefer Scorsese's concept when it comes to making books into films... the viewer is supposed to experience the essence of the book through the medium of film. It's not supposed to be the book made into a film verbatim, because films are not books.
There wasn't much action in Lincoln, just a bunch of people talking to one another. I snoozed through the bit between Abe and the telegraph clerks discussing theology. The Confederates weren't very interesting either. They'd fought for three and a half years but had nothing interesting to say.
None of the females were sexy. I nearly panicked when they showed Sally Fields in loose-fitting bedclothes. Thankfully, her arms stopped moving and the terror that she might remove that last layer of clothing subsided. Even Schindler's List had some decent looking women in it.
We really don't need more good quality films about Lincoln because a big budget must target a big audience, and a big audience can only be presented with re-stylings of known history, not expansions upon it. If we had a dozen historically accurate and theatrically interesting films on Lincoln then the public might be ready for a repackaged, re-affirmation of his place in dry history.

A Lincoln with a high, almost feminine voice from the UK?
Underdeveloped characters from an essayist who thinks he's a playwright?
Who does Spielberg think he's kidding? The majority, apparently.

I liked the movie as history, even when that history is murky. I believe no movie can realistically portray slavery, but the political debate over the humanity of slaves was realistic enough in the stricken faces of the quasi-liberated servants to foretell the horrors of Jim Crow's next one-hundred years. Daniel-Day-Lewis response to adoration told us of Lincoln's awareness of his own cultural feet-of-clay. The movie made clear that most politicians are insulated from the direct consequences of their deliberations and that many of those decisions are more self-serving than moral. To the younger movie goer, a reminder that we are still facing inequities that began with slavery, and many of our citizens still act on beliefs of racial superiority. That people stood and voted to abolish slavery was good, that they couldn't agree to provide universal civil rights describes much of the modern world. Thank you Steven Spielberg for the baby steps.

Good movie, well done; has a believable look and feel (the participants, mostly men, didn't look shiny and clean like most actors in historical movies usually do). But it suffers from Standard Spiefberg Nonsense in which you are bludgeoned over the head with unnecessary scenes, usually at the beginning and end (but this time just at the end) in which, in case you didn't "get it", Mr. Spielberg explains it to you with a cudgel. Were the 2 extremely obvious scenes at the end (Thaddeus Stevens and his "housekeeper" and the theater scene) really necessary? Wasn't there a more subtle way to show us these things which would NOT have made us feel like schoolchildren missing the point? Wasn't the very last scene of the speech misplaced? Typical Spielberg nonsense - someone should take away his director's chair before the completion of any film. Do you remember how he ruined "Saving Private Ryan"? Were the flashbacks at the beginning and end really necessary? I was there 100% for Lincoln until the end and then, to my dismay, he did exactly what I expected him to do.

Saw it last night and was mesmerized by it (full disclosure: I am not an American but am interested in history and political sciences). Superb acting all around, great story.
Just one comment on the review above: Gone with the wind, when it shows romantic old South that is because it is based on the book by the same name and has portrayed what is shown in the book. Not sure why the reviewer is so naive about that!

I've read a lot of people saying "too much talking, not enough action". But it didn't bother me for one reason: nearly EVERY scene, EVERY line of dialogue in this film is part of a fight. It's a battle, and it's not a pithy battle over status: it's a battle over a war killing scores of people, and a change to the identity of the country. And every scene until the war is over (Is that a spoiler?) is a scene of conflict that is about driving action. This is an INCREDIBLE film about learning how to use persuasion, intimidation, peer pressure, the wielding of influence to get big things done. It's about brokering power. And if you just see it as talking, you're missing what's being done. This is an action movie in the case of HUGE acts being accomplished, with huge consequences. Give me this any day over an action movie where two guys shoot at each other. Sure, there's more violence, but a hell of a lot less actually "happens".

"I will say, then, that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races." -Abraham Lincoln
Abolishing slavery was a political move for Lincoln not one of moral conviction.

It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. (Last passage of the Address Delivered at the Dedication of the Cemetery at Gettysburg,
Abraham Lincoln
November 19, 1863.)
Opening shot: the American Civil War, the first person we see and hear is a black man, soldier during 10 long years, the second we hear is Lincoln -whom we don't see yet, we will see him very soon from the back, the same position as the audience's- asking him about his situation, the third that speaks is another black soldier . They are paid less than whites. But in a hundred years, they will vote. The soldier has vision and recites words of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address of 1863, the most quoted words in American political history. Lincoln asks and listens to the Other: "Abraham Africanus the 1rst", as his detractors called him.
The movie shows Lincoln's distinctive command of language, his good sense of humor, his ability to tell stories and to make the political issue personal to others by narrating an anecdote or a parable. Also his capacity for argumentation, guided by a clear vision. For example, his knowledge of Euclid's self-evident principles gives him visionary imagination. Mathematics and logic as well as ethics have to do with the imagination, with seeing the consequences of the premises, and seeing the consequences of one's actions.

My wife and I attended a weekday matinee showing of this film and both of us were greatly impressed. The characterization as usual in a Spielberg fill was superb. Kerns Goodwin is a political figure that both of us know well and her contribution was very evident. Day-Lewis did a wonderful job of conveying the scope and depth of Lincoln's character in the most turbulent times our nation ever faced. His recognition and acclaim for his tremendous acting skill is well deserved. The list of supporting actors in this film immediately recognized to all of us was very impressive. Casting was excellent and the story, so important in U. S. history - kept rapt attention throughout. What a film !

Why do they call Kushner's screenplay an adapted screenplay when there are maybe four pages about the 13th amendment in Team of Rivals? Kushner deserves an Oscar, just not this one. So does the guy who played the main character. So does the director.

There is no doubt in my mind that Spielberg is one of the few masters of American cinema, a grand master in fact, but this film is, (if viewed dispassionately) just pedestrian. The outstanding element is Janusz Kaminski's cinematography wherein every frame appears like an oil painting.
Maybe if Lincoln himself was commenting on this movie, he would have some pithy line, maybe something drenched in "important rhetoric" to describe it, just as he does over and over and over in this film about other matters. Maybe he would say, "Important historical subject matter does not automatically equate to an important film."
Chest bursting American patriotism is such a soft and easy target for self-righteous importance by association.. Here's the formula...
Let's all raise some money, and let us make a film about the anthem "The Star Spangled Banner." Some renowned actor will read the words, voice faltering, sick and in bed, (best if an impersonation, a caricature of a famous person), surrounded by a gaggle of bearded, bedraggled supporters, all solemn, one crying, as the music swells triumphantly, there will be desaturated cutaways of smoke-filled rain-drenched hazy fields, the red glare of rockets, a slow crane past battered but proud men into a close-up of a battered but proud flag... still there... and Oscars will just drop out of the sky down upon us, raining Oscars into our shirts that we hold out to catch them. Because our film and the Star Spangled Banner through metamorphosis will have become ONE. We WILL be that anthem and everything emotional and historical associated with it.
Why? Because Lincoln himself in this film says something along the lines of, "Things that are equal to the same thing, are equal to each-other."
And that very much is the mantra of 'Lincoln' the film, which wants to con everyone to believe it's as important as the abolition of slavery.

Yes,I admit an immense out of this world,DDL,BUT,I can never get it out of my head that it was not Liam Neeson as Lincoln.
Neeson would have been immense and while he's not DDL (who is?)-this guy has legendary presence, sweep of speech (not quite on the scale of DDL but still epic) but especially a physique that's definitely more LINCON.

A good actor should be able to convey sorrow, happiness, anger, etc.,etc. When Lincoln mentions the loss of over 600,000 men he might as well been talking about an evening out with Molly, as much emotion as he showed. The choice of passing the 13th Amendment or ending the war with a cessation of further casualties was really not much of a choice, was it? After all, what's the loss of another 5,000 men, or 50,000, or even 500,000?

Having watched the second(!) inauguration of Barack Obama on last Monday and this night the movie telling the fight for and the passage of the 13th amendment 148 years earlier to the month - I'm moved by the plot, its relevance, importance, signification. And that is that. I saw consummate scill and craft, but less artistry. Regardless, watchable.

It's pretty obvious from some of these reviews that the South is still fighting this one. And they still don't like Lincoln even though they've adopted his party. How ironic! Jeff Davis must be spinning in his grave. BTW I thought Daniel Day Lewis gave a fine performance and showed Lincoln for the pragmatist he was.

There are just 22 days until the election and candidates in races across the country are making their final push to get votes, but a Lake Elmo woman is crying foul after she says the mayor removed a piece of campaign literature she left while door-knocking.
"I was visibly upset," said Lake Elmo City Councilwoman Anne Smith. "I've worked with the mayor for eight years. He was my friend, and to have him take my literature hurts."
Both Smith and Dean Johnston are up for election, but they're not running against each other. Johnston is seeking his third term as mayor, and Smith hopes to keep her spot on the City Council.
Smith claims that their campaigns collided on Saturday while canvassing a neighborhood after the mother of three accused Johnston of taking a brochure she had just left at a home.
"He rubber-banded his literature on the door handle. Then, he pulled -- because there was only a little corner sticking out -- he pulled my literature out of the door and didn't hide it. Simply walked over his scooter, lifted his seat and put it in his seat," she said.
Johnston calls the accusations "baseless." When FOX 9 News spoke with him by phone, he admitted to removing the brochure because he was curious to read it, but he says it never left the property.
Smith, however, said he only put it back after she confronted him and threatened to call police.
"We work hard. We work hard going to these doors to show people we care about our community and to have that one little bit of say," Smith said. "If they're not there, that's all they get -- is my little brochure."
The city administrator told FOX 9 News this campaign kerfuffle could be considered par for the course with candidates who are passionate about their city.
"Nothing surprises me in a political campaign," Dean Zuleger said. "Like I said, in Lake Elmo, folks are passionate. We're kind of known for a lot of intensity in local government."
Smith and Johnston have bumped heads on issues in the past, but while Johnston said he'd rather not be included in this story, he wanted to make it clear that this campaign kerfuffle was not about partisan politics.
Yet, some say they think the campaign literature lift could be because Smith is running on a slate with one of Johnston's opponents.
The Washington County Sheriff's Office did fill out a report, but no one has been cited so far. Officials say they are still looking into it.

Panel Calls for Increased Emphasis on Translational Research
The President's Cancer Panel (PCP) released a new report last week calling for some far-reaching changes aimed at improving the translation of cancer research findings into new interventions and the delivery of those interventions to health care providers and patients.
The report includes 20 recommendations and identifies groups and organizations that should be involved in their development and implementation. The recommendations call for new ways to address patent and intellectual property issues that often prevent research on promising compounds or combinations of licensed drugs, increased support for the dissemination of information about and adoption of new interventions, and increased funding for team science and systemic changes that promote careers in translational research.
The latter issue was raised "over and over again" during the four hearings the PCP held on translational research, said the Panel's chairman, Dr. LaSalle Leffall, Jr. These aren't empty sentiments, Dr. Leffall told attendees last week at a conference on translational research training programs jointly sponsored by NCI and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. "The team science concept is permeating many institutions," he added. Read more
A New Generation of Researchers for a New Kind of Research
Last week, while attending some events on the National Institutes of Health (NIH) campus, I saw the past, present, and future of cancer research. At the General Motors Cancer Research Annual Scientific Conference, I had the opportunity to hear talks by Nobel laureates and other icons of science about our remarkable progress against breast cancer and where research on prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of breast cancer is headed.
A short while later, I met with 250 National Cancer Institute (NCI) summer interns - some of the best, brightest, and most enthusiastic high school, college, and medical school students in the country. They can be the leaders, I told them, who will take us to an unbelievable destination.
And finally, I spoke at a meeting of leaders from academic medical centers, comprehensive cancer centers, and others who have established exciting programs aimed at turning out a new generation of translational cancer researchers - researchers who have a knowledge and expertise that spans from the bench to the bedside, and even to computational sciences, engineering, and mathematics.

"The team science concept is permeating many institutions," he added.
Changes such as revamping the reward systems at academic medical centers, allowances by funding agencies for co-principal investigators, and allocating more resources to translational research all could make the research climate more amenable to team science, Dr. Leffall said.
NCI Director Dr. Andrew C. von Eschenbach noted that NCI has been working with NIH leadership to establish a co-principal investigator mechanism. "It's a work in progress," he said.
More than 80 people - clinical investigators, advocates, health insurance representatives, and many other stakeholders - testified during the PCP hearings. The testimony was the basis for the PCP's report, Translating Research into Care: Delivering on the Promise. Other recommendations from the report include:
The latter recommendation is aimed at kick-starting what has been a significant lag in the development and approval of new cancer drugs. Under the Orphan Drug Act, drugs for diseases that have fewer than 200,000 cases - which would include many cancer drugs - can be given an "orphan" designation, which provides additional benefits to the drugs' manufacturers, such as an extended period of exclusive marketing rights, tax credits, and grants to defray clinical trial costs.
The PCP called for an evaluation in 5 years of how effective programs and initiatives have been at accelerating "the translation of basic science discoveries into improved cancer prevention and care."

A New Generation of Researchers for a New Kind of Research

This particular meeting, sponsored by NCI and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI), sparked important discussions about the need for and how best to develop a robust cadre of translational researchers. Dr. Philip Pizzo, dean of the Stanford University School of Medicine, talked about the intriguing approach his institution is taking. Stanford, in fact, has retooled its program, embracing the importance of translational medicine by intertwining clinical medicine and basic science. HHMI's Dr. William Galey told attendees about a new training program called the Interfaces Initiative, a partnership between HHMI and the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering that marries biomedical sciences with the physical sciences, as well as the computational, engineering, and mathematical disciplines.
NCI has a firm commitment to translational research. Thanks to the work of the NCI-FDA Task Force, for example, earlier this year the NCI-FDA Research and Regulatory Review Fellowship program was established. This program will train researchers to master the drug development process - from scientific discovery to regulatory review - and shepherd new interventions to market. Other programs, such as the NCI Paul Calabresi Award for Clinical Oncology, are supporting institutions' efforts to build vital new bridges between clinical and basic researchers.
At the recent National Cancer Advisory Board meeting, I announced the formation of the Translational Research Working Group (TRWG). Following the excellent example set by the Clinical Trials Working Group, the TRWG will review NCI's translational research portfolio and provide a blueprint for how best to harness our resources and advance translational research as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Dr. Ernie Hawk, who will chair the TRWG, reminded attendees at the NCI/HHMI meeting of a quote from Louis Pasteur: "There are not two sciences. There is science and the application of science, and these two are linked as the fruit is to the tree."
The way we conduct research is changing rapidly. Delivery, which is the ultimate translation of discoveries made in the lab, is fast becoming an important discovery platform. With that in mind, Pasteur's quote reinforces for all of us that our research is incomplete if we fail to apply what we learn and that, in applying what we learn, we inform discovery anew.

Moving Health Records into the Electronic Age
"We need to know the true toxicity of the treatments we're delivering if we want to do a better job of controlling it," says Dr. Lawrence Shulman, the cancer center's chief medical officer.
Dana-Farber is just one of many large health care systems that have developed their own EMR systems and are finding innovative uses for them. Now the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is trying to make sure that all Americans have their own electronic health records by 2015.
HHS Secretary Michael Leavitt announced the effort earlier this month. Much like an ATM card can be used at nearly any ATM machine across the country, the EMRs would be accessible, with the appropriate security measures, at any medical facility. Their development will be driven by a national public-private sector collaboration that establishes essential items such as data standards, IT structure, and privacy and security policies, Sec. Leavitt said.
While the data on the potential impact of EMRs are limited, many health care experts believe their widespread use can improve care and save money. The latter is no trivial matter. Current estimates put the annual U.S. health care costs at approximately $1.8 trillion, more than 15 percent of the nation's gross domestic product.
The EMR used at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, dubbed ClinicStation, was launched in 2001, primarily to provide the cancer center's clinicians with easy access to the millions of clinical images produced during the standard course of care and research. Over time, though, it has morphed into an internally developed EMR to address the complexity of research-driven patient care.
"All clinical data are now reviewed through ClinicStation," explains Dr. Kevin W. McEnery, associate division head for Informatics at M.D. Anderson. "There is no paper chart. If somebody wants to review a patient's clinical data or clinical notes, they review it through ClinicStation."
The system is available on more than 7,000 desktops at the institution, and about 6,500 caregivers use ClinicStation. In May, there were almost 60 million transactions on the system. More than 1 million imaging studies and 100 million individual images dating back to November 2000 can be instantly accessed through the system.
Although no formal study has been done, officials at M.D. Anderson estimate ClinicStation will save the institution anywhere from $8 million to $30 million by the end of the decade. They also believe the system has improved the quality of care.
"Patients at M.D. Anderson all receive multidisciplinary care, where routinely several physicians are involved in the management of a patient's care plan at the same time," Dr. McEnery says. "With ClinicStation, these physicians can efficiently collaborate in a patient's care because they have simultaneous access to the same information."
Dana-Farber shares its EMR with its seven sister institutions, including Brigham and Women's Hospital and Partners HealthCare system. In addition to information including patients' laboratory data, pathology and radiology results, medications used, and office notes, the EMR also includes oncology-specific modules, such as infusion flow sheets for chemotherapy and blood products.
"Every bit of data on a patient in any of our institutions is collated in reverse chronological order," Dr. Shulman says. "For us, it's very important, because many patients often go back and forth between the different institutions."
As the Dana-Farber toxicity study illustrates, EMRs have potentially broad research applications. The NCI-funded Cancer Research Network (CRN), a coalition of 11 managed care systems that collectively has more than 10 million enrollees, is already using EMRs to perform several studies.
CRN investigators recently used EMRs to examine the relationship between screening practices and late-stage diagnoses of breast and cervical cancers in CRN systems. More than half of late-stage cervical cancer diagnoses, they found, were attributable to failure to undergo screening in the 3 years before diagnosis. Women in specific subgroups had a greater likelihood of falling into this category. The participating managed care systems are now designing interventions to increase screening among plan members from those subgroups, explained Dr. Edward Wagner of the Center for Health Studies at the Group Health Cooperative in Seattle during a recent presentation on the CRN to NCI's National Cancer Advisory Board. In another CRN study, EMRs are being used to provide individualized feedback to primary care physicians on their provision of smoking cessation services.
If the goal of a secure but easily accessible EMR for every American can be achieved, that will mean big things for cancer research and care, according to Dr. McEnery.
Among other things, when patients travel to a tertiary care center, it would eliminate the hours spent reviewing outside paper records for information. In addition, he adds, because everything about patients' treatment at the cancer center would be captured in their records, "patients will experience more efficient care in their own hometown from their own provider."
By Carmen Phillips
At the General Motors Cancer Research Foundation 2005 Annual Scientific Conference at NIH last week, keynote speaker Dr. Larry Norton of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center framed breast cancer as a puzzle and told participants that "we're beginning to assemble the pieces of that puzzle in molecular terms into a picture that can guide clinicians." Conference sessions illustrated his metaphor.
One puzzle piece has to do with the different ways in which cancer cells operate. Sessions on how BRCA2 suppresses cell growth and how CHK2 mutations impede DNA repair illustrated the contributions of genetics and cell biology.
A second puzzle piece looks at how mammary epithelial cells interact in a particular biological microenvironment. The extracellular matrix can destabilize the genome, cause local tissue changes, and alter gene expression, cell growth and death, and drug resistance.
The third puzzle piece involves tumor behavior. Oncogenes provide only part of the answer, with a number of other regulatory molecules now under study. Tissue-specific cancer stem cells, for example, may drive a central aspect of tumor growth.
Puzzle piece four is cancer at the patient and population levels. While crucial, the genomic mechanisms of breast cancer do not capture the profound influences of the environment, nor do they reflect the experience over the life spans of women facing cancer.
Effective treatments provide the final piece of the puzzle model of clinical oncology. Herceptin (trastuzumab) shows how years of work at the molecular and genetic levels built a successful targeted therapy for a specific population. Gene expression profiling and similar approaches also allow phased treatment strategies to track progress and improve prognosis.
Gefitinib Use Restricted by New Label
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved new labeling for gefitinib (Iressa) that will restrict use to lung cancer patients who are currently taking the tablets or who have previously benefited from the treatment in the judgments of their doctors.
New patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) will not receive the drug unless they are participants in clinical trials that were approved by an Institutional Review Board prior to June 17, 2005, the day the FDA and the drug's manufacturer, AstraZeneca PLC, announced the label change.
The FDA's decision was based on a review of data from two trials in which gefitinib did not help lung cancer patients live longer. The agency noted that patients with NSCLC have other treatment options. Even before the announcement, many doctors were prescribing erlotinib (Tarceva) for patients with NSCLC.
Gefitinib was approved for use in NSCLC in May 2003 through the agency's early approval mechanism. The approval was based on the drug's ability to shrink tumors in about 10 percent of patients and was contingent on follow-up studies.
One of the follow-up trials, which included nearly 1,700 patients who had failed one or two previous treatment regimens, found no significant survival benefit in the overall study population. Nor did patients with high levels of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), the protein targeted by gefitinib, benefit significantly.
As of September 15, 2005, patients will receive gefitinib through a single mail-order pharmacy. Approximately 4,000 patients are currently taking gefitinib in the United States. The FDA is not considering withdrawing gefitinib from the market at this time.
Colorectal Cancer Risk Increased by Red and Processed Meat Diet
High levels of consumption of red and processed meat are associated with an increased risk of colorectal cancer, while high levels of fish consumption are associated with a decreased risk of the disease, according to a new European study published in the June 15 Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
Drs. Elio Riboli and Teresa Norat of the International Agency for Research on Cancer in Lyon, France, and their colleagues used data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC), a cohort of 478,000 Western Europeans enrolled between 1992 and 1998.
At a mean follow-up of 4.8 years, 1,329 cases of colorectal cancer were diagnosed. Within the EPIC population, the risk of developing colorectal cancer over a 10-year period was 1.71 percent for subjects in the highest category of red and processed meat consumption (more than 160 grams daily) compared with 1.28 percent for those in the lowest category (less than 20 grams daily).
Among subjects in the highest category of fish consumption (more than 80 grams daily), the risk of developing colorectal cancer over a 10-year period was 1.28 percent compared with 1.86 percent among those in the lowest category (less than 20 grams daily). The researchers found no association between poultry consumption and colorectal cancer risk.
Although the findings confirm previous studies, "the results reported here are from one of the largest cohorts of men and women that has been developed specifically to examine the relationship between diet and cancer," the researchers note.
Thyroid Cancer Risk Related to Radiotherapy for Childhood Cancer
Radiotherapy used to treat childhood cancers may contribute to survivors developing subsequent thyroid cancer, say researchers from NCI's Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG) in the June 11 Lancet. Chemotherapy given for the original cancer had no impact on later thyroid cancer risk, nor did it modify the risk found from radiotherapy.
The Childhood Cancer Survivor Study is a cohort of more than 14,000 individuals who were diagnosed with cancer between 1970 and 1986 and survived at least 5 years following diagnosis.
By correlating the dose of cumulative radiation received with the occurrence of secondary thyroid cancer, the researchers found evidence for decline in risk at high doses that earlier studies could not. The risk varies with the radiation that the researchers calculated was absorbed by the patient's thyroid gland at the time of original treatment. From 1 Gy up to 20 Gy, the risk increases, peaking between 20 and 29 Gy. Above 30 Gy and up to 50 Gy the risk decreases, "consistent with a cell-killing effect at high doses," said the authors. The study results do not have implications for clinical treatment decisions with regard to childhood cancers because other serious late effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy do show increasing risk with increasing doses.
"Childhood cancer survivors with a history of radiation exposure to the chest, neck, or head should be considered at risk for thyroid cancer and these patients should have yearly thyroid and neck examinations," the authors said.
This nested case-control study, led by Dr. Alice J. Sigurdson from the Radiation Epidemiology Branch of DCEG, identified 72 children who were under 21 years of age when they were diagnosed with a childhood cancer, had survived more than 5 years, and later developed thyroid cancer. For each patient, a set of four controls with healthy, intact thyroid glands were matched by gender, approximate age of first cancer diagnosis, and follow-up interval.
In an editorial, Dr. Judith Kingston of the Royal London Hospital said the study clearly showed "that the thyroid gland in younger children is more susceptible to the oncogenic effects of radiation than in older children."
Erlotinib Effective Against Some Brain Tumors
A report in the June 15 Journal of the National Cancer Institute provides the first hints of how to identify brain tumor patients who will respond to the drug erlotinib (Tarceva), originally developed for lung cancer.
In lung cancer, researchers are finding that patients who respond to the drug have a specific molecular signature. The current study examined similar signatures in glioblastomas.
Drs. Daphne A. Haas-Kogan and David Stokoe of the University of California, San Francisco, and colleagues studied tissue samples from 41 participants in a phase I trial of erlotinib for glioblastoma. They wanted to know if levels of the protein biomarker, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), could predict which patients would respond. Erlotinib is a small molecule that targets that specific protein.
Eight of the 41 glioma patients responded to erlotinib treatment. The researchers report that response was predicted by high levels of EGFR and low levels of a related enzyme, PKB/Akt. None of the 22 patients whose tumors had high levels of phosphorylated PKB/Akt responded to erlotinib, whereas 8 of the 18 patients with low levels of phosphorylated PKB/Akt did respond. The researchers plan to use these results in the design of a phase II trial.
"Future trials of EGFR inhibitors should build on our current findings and, with prospective molecular profiling, should establish the most appropriate agent(s) for each individual patient. Clearly, in clinical trials testing signaling inhibitors, selection of patients with appropriate molecular characteristics will not only help to assess the true efficacy of specific novel agents but will also maximize benefits to individual patients," the authors wrote.
Vaccine to Prevent Cervical Cancer
Name of the Trial
Principal Investigators
Why Is This Trial Important?
Some types of HPV are associated with cervical cancer more often than others; for example, HPV-Type 16 (HPV-16) is found in half of cervical cancers worldwide. However, the vast majority of women infected with HPV-16 will never develop cervical cancer and will clear their infections spontaneously because of immune responses to the virus. Nonetheless, developing therapeutic interventions for viral infections associated with low-grade cellular changes may allow us to block the effects of HPV long before a precancerous change or a malignancy develops.
In this study, researchers are testing a vaccine in women infected with HPV-16 who have LSIL or ASCUS Pap test results. The goal is to determine whether women who receive the study vaccine clear their infections and resolve their low-grade Pap test abnormalities more often than women who receive placebo (sterile water).
"Some women with HPV infections develop cancer because they don't seem to develop an appropriate immune response to the cancer-causing components of HPV," said Dr. Wiley. "We hope that this vaccine will help women develop that immune response."

Clauser Named Outcomes Research Chief
Nanoparticles Transport Drug to Tumor Cells in Mice
Immunology Conference Set for September
Dr. Larry Norton is deputy physician-in-chief for Breast Cancer Programs at Memorial Hospital and medical director of the Evelyn H. Lauder Breast Center at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. He delivered the keynote address at the General Motors Cancer Research Foundation 2005 Annual Scientific Conference at NIH June 13-14. Co-author of the Norton-Simon Model, Dr. Norton's ideas have helped to shape the field of medical oncology.
Where did the Norton-Simon model come from?
In a nutshell, we recognized the importance of what others had already noted: that cancers follow Gompertzian growth curves, meaning that "small things change in size relatively faster." About 1976 we saw this relationship applied not only to unimpeded tumor growth, but also to regression in response to treatment. To my knowledge no clinical exception has been found in the almost 30 years since.
How has this idea influenced cancer research and treatment?
Where does fractal geometry come in?
We have traditionally thought that cancers metastasize because they grow large and thereby generate distant-seeding mutants. But perhaps cancers are large because they self-seed, and self-seeding is a step toward distant seeding. By identifying the genes responsible for this process we hope to improve prognostication and therapy.

I'm fascinated by paranoia.
to make fun of the subject TOO much, though -- in all honesty, I think
it's important not to trust everything that's presented to you. What's
the old slogan? "Paranoia: You Only Have To Be Right Once For It All To
Be Worthwhile"??? I believe I saw that on a t-shirt...or maybe it was a
coffee mug or something. Either way, wise words indeed.
Anyway, the long and short of it is that I find the subject of paranoia to be interesting on several levels. And it's related to the more broad issue of mental illness, which I also find interesting. Total insanity is especially fascinating, and offers limitless possibilities. How does one know when he or she is really just nuts? Movies that tread into this arena are often engaging (as in, say, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest), and I especially like them when the viewer isn't told until close to the end whether or not the main character's struggles really are all the result of madness, like A Beautiful Mind. Scariest movie I ever saw, man.
So, here's a capsule review for a little film called Civic Duty, which explores such issues against the backdrop of Post-911 mass hysteria (or, WAS IT?). I think it was originally made for some cable network, but I found it to be of high quality, anyway.
Civic Duty (2006)
Netflix description:
"Recently fired from his job, accountant Terry Allen spends his days glued to the television, transfixed by 24-hour news coverage that obsesses over the threat of terrorism. When a quiet Islamic student moves in next door, Terry assumes the worst and takes it upon himself to quell the perceived threat. This suspenseful thriller examines the American psyche in a post-Sept. 11 world."
A surprisingly good film that manages to maintain a suspenseful edge and keep us guessing right up until the end. In the tense atmosphere of 9/11's immediate aftermath, an unemployed accountant grows increasingly suspicious of his Middle Eastern neighbor.
Excellent acting (I especially liked Richard Schiff as
the jaded FBI agent), and skilled direction make what could easily have
been a ho-hum experience worth watching. It's a simple, yet well-made,
little movie. The ending, which is open to several interpretations, is
great, too. I say give it a look.
3 out of 5.
