NIH to Examine Ethics Policies
Recently, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has come under scrutiny for how the agency manages its ethics program. Specifically, the House Committee on Energy and Commerce questioned how NIH interprets federal regulations that permit federal employees to participate in outside activities and receive compensation and the statutes that define what a conflict of interest is. In response to these concerns, NIH Director Dr. Elias Zerhouni has developed a strategy - reviewed and approved by institutes' deputy ethics coordinators - that calls for the review of outside activities dating back five years. Dr. Zerhouni has stated that "all employees at NIH have the obligation to disclose these arrangements. To the best of our knowledge, they have done so." NIH's plan also calls for the establishment of a new NIH ethics advisory committee, the appointment of a blue-ribbon panel to examine NIH ethics policies and practices, and a review of financial disclosure requirements for NIH personnel. As a component of NIH, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) recognizes the importance of having a strong ethics program and looks to benefit from NIH's efforts. Read more
Pancreatic Cancer Research: New Tools Will Aid Larger Efforts
Last month brought new hope to the research community in the form of two studies focused on genetically engineered mouse models of pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is among the most lethal human malignancies, with a median survival time of 6 months; only 5 percent of patients achieve five years of survival. This dismal prognosis is thought to be related to the absence of early detection methods. Characterization of early-stage disease has been limited by a lack of appropriate models for research.
In the first study, a team of researchers from the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute reported that they had developed a bioengineered mouse model that contains two "signature mutations" seen in the human form of pancreatic cancer. Just as they do in humans, the mutated genes in the mouse model work together to allow the development of premalignant lesions, which in turn lead to full-blown disease. Read more

As a component of NIH, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) recognizes the importance of having a strong ethics program and looks to benefit from NIH's efforts.
The National Cancer Act of 1971 set out to assist NCI in becoming more effective in the fight against cancer. In establishing the National Cancer Program, the National Cancer Act instructed NCI to "encourage and coordinate cancer research by industrial concerns" and to "establish or support the large-scale production or distribution of specialized biological materials and other therapeutic substances." Over the past three decades, this authorizing language has allowed NCI to collaborate with private industry, jump-start research initiatives, develop innovative therapies, and fill gaps in research that industry has not pursued. Likewise, Dr. Zerhouni has stated that "collaborations between public and private scientists and institutions are essential to translating our discoveries into effective treatments and in attracting and retaining outstanding scientists to government service."
"Without question, the ability to collaborate with private industry and develop new therapies is the source of countless advances in biomedical research and has improved the quality of health care available today," said Dr. Andrew C. von Eschenbach, NCI director. "NCI must maintain the highest ethical standards in its collaborations with private industry so the public's trust is never misplaced."
NCI has always valued the public trust bestowed upon the institute and has continually sought to protect it through the institute's ethics program. NCI has a long-standing comprehensive ethics program in place that strictly adheres to the federal regulations and statutes that set the standard for ethical conduct in government. All Cooperative Research and Development Agreements (CRADAs), sponsored travel, and outside activities, along with confidential and public financial disclosure reports, are reviewed by NCI's Ethics Office. CRADAs are reviewed to ensure fair access and that no conflict of interest exists for NCI employees involved with the project. Outside activities, such as consultancies, are scrutinized by the Ethics Office to identify real and apparent conflicts of interest and for ways in which the activity could impact the employee's official duties and workload with NCI. All identified real or apparent conflicts of interest are addressed by the institute on a case by case basis. Additionally, official duty activities with outside organizations are examined to ensure consistency with the NCI mission as well as all laws and regulations. These efforts are only one part of how the NCI ethics program works to protect the public trust.
NIH has an ethics training and outreach program. New employees are required to complete training on the rules of ethics for public service and are instructed on how to contact the NIH Ethics Office when questions arise; the NCI Ethics office serves as the primary resource for NCI. As part of an ongoing review of all approved outside activities, the NCI Ethics Office works to keep division directors informed of their employees' related activities.
NCI will work with the rest of the NIH to uphold the highest standards for patient safety, ethical practices, and scientific excellence.
Pancreatic Cancer Research: New Tools Will Aid Larger Efforts
Last month brought new hope to the research community in the form of two studies focused on genetically engineered mouse models of pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is among the most lethal human malignancies, with a median survival time of 6 months; only 5 percent of patients achieve five years of survival. This dismal prognosis is thought to be related to the absence of early detection methods. Characterization of early-stage disease has been limited by a lack of appropriate models for research.
In the first study, a team of researchers from the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute reported that they had developed a bioengineered mouse model that contains two "signature mutations" seen in the human form of pancreatic cancer. Just as they do in humans, the mutated genes in the mouse model work together to allow the development of premalignant lesions, which in turn lead to full-blown disease.
In the second study, a research team from the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania developed a pancreatic cancer mouse model that, again, leads to the development of premalignant lesions in the same fashion as occurs in humans. The research team also found there is a proteomic marker for the presence of the precancerous lesion.
These new mouse models offer hope of more novel discoveries. For example, one of the models with premalignant lesions that have an identifiable proteomic signature shows us that we now may be able to identify early markers in the blood of patients with early pancreatic cancer. The other model allows us to better understand the interaction of genetic mutations that promote the development of malignant lesions, which may help us develop new therapies that can inhibit malignant tumor growth.
In addition to this promising research, NCI has been pursuing more rigorous national efforts to reduce the suffering and death due to pancreatic cancer. Since 1997, NCI has increased funding for pancreatic cancer research more than threefold, from $10.2 million to $33.1 million in 2003.
Of course, ensuring sufficient resources is only part of the challenge. We are also committed to providing strong leadership that is fueled by diverse expertise from across the cancer research community. In response to recommendations from the Pancreatic Cancer Progress Review Group, a panel of prominent scientists and advocates, NCI developed a strategic plan focusing on six key areas: improvements in the health of the pancreatic cancer research field; understanding of tumor biology; risk, prevention, screening, and diagnosis; therapy; communications and health care delivery; and resource priorities.
This strategic plan is guiding NCI's efforts in the discovery, development, and delivery of more effective pancreatic disease interventions. In basic research, for instance, researchers funded by NCI are investigating a relationship among aberrant DNA methylation, abnormal gene transcription, and clinicopathological features of pancreatic cancers.
On the development front, researchers at NCI's Center for Cancer Research are leading a phase I clinical trial to evaluate the effect of a novel class of agents that target the chaperone molecule of many signaling molecules involved in malignancies, including pancreatic cancer.
NCI also supports delivery in the form of advanced clinical trials. For example, NCI's Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program is sponsoring phase II and III trials comparing new and existing therapies. In 2003, the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group launched a phase III trial to evaluate the synergistic effects of oxaliplatin, a chemotherapeutic agent that is effective in treating metastatic colorectal cancer, when combined with standard gemcitabine therapy. In addition, phase III trials set to launch this year will evaluate new agents, the monoclonal antibodies cetuximab and bevacizumab, in combination with gemcitabine. The trial to evaluate bevacizumab grew out of NCI's continuing collaboration with Genentech, Inc. NCI and Genentech also are working together to develop new phase II trials combining bevacizumab with other targeted drugs for patients with pancreatic cancer.
Other important efforts include the recent formation of the Gastrointestinal Malignancy Faculty. This faculty has recruited multidisciplinary clinicians and is early in the process of developing a clinic for patients with malignant and benign pancreatic tumors. All aspects of treatment, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, will be available. The faculty is in the early stages of its work and I am confident that its members will make valuable advances in the area of pancreatic disease.
One notable feature of all these efforts is the highly focused collaboration of basic and clinical researchers, of scientific, financial, and policy planners, and of intramural and extramural NCI researchers. In addition we have benefited from the valuable input from pancreatic cancer survivor groups. I commend each of them for their hard work and dedication. I look forward to the day when our patients no longer suffer and die from pancreatic cancer.

Journal Highlights 40th Anniversary of Surgeon General's Report
A special report in the January 15, 2004, New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) titled "Tobacco Control in the Wake of the 1998 Master Settlement Agreement" marks the 40th anniversary of the first Surgeon General's report, Smoking and Health. The 1964 Surgeon General's report was America's first widely publicized official recognition that cigarette smoking is a cause of cancer and other serious diseases.
In this NEJM report, Dr. Steven Schroeder, past president of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and current director and chair of the board of directors of the American Legacy Foundation, reviews and evaluates the 1998 Master Settlement Agreement (MSA) and summarizes the effectiveness of current tobacco control policies, including cigarette taxation, clean-indoor-air initiatives, smoking cessation programs, and international trade policies. The special report demonstrates that while the MSA was a landmark event for tobacco control, it was far from a panacea.
In 1998, the attorneys general of 46 states and five U.S. territories reached an agreement with four tobacco companies to recover the costs of the states' Medicaid programs for treating tobacco-related illnesses and to settle other types of lawsuits, such as consumer protection and antitrust litigation. The MSA awarded the states $206 billion, to be paid over 25 years. The MSA also required the elimination of youth-targeted advertising and increased the public disclosure of internal industry documents, among other provisions.
In general, the MSA did not specify how states must spend their funds. Schroeder explores how states have chosen to use their funds - most of which have not gone toward tobacco control-related programs. The only MSA funds specifically earmarked were for the creation of the American Legacy Foundation, to develop national programs that address the health effects of tobacco use. Legacy is responsible for the "truth" campaign, which Schroeder calls "the most important national counter-marketing effort in 30 years."
It now has been 40 years since the first Surgeon General's report on smoking and health and over five years since the MSA. Although much progress has been made, there are still 46 million current smokers in the United States, and 440,000 of them die each year from smoking, making it the single largest preventable cause of death. Another 8.6 million people suffer from tobacco-related diseases such as emphysema and heart disease. Smoking is currently the leading cause of cancers of the lung, bladder, larynx, esophagus, and mouth and is highly associated with the development of cancers of the pancreas, cervix, and kidney. And smoking is increasingly concentrated in populations with low incomes and relatively little education, further increasing the health disparities gap that NCI - and the Department of Health and Human Services as a whole - seek to eliminate.
"While overall U.S. smoking-rates have slightly declined in recent years, substantial work remains in order to reach the department's health goals for the nation," said Dr. Cathy Backinger, acting branch chief of NCI's Tobacco Control Research Branch (TCRB).

Mouse Models Closely Mimic Human Pancreatic Cancer
NCI's Mouse Models of Human Cancers Consortium (MMHCC) has provided support for the following studies of mouse models that may provide insight into pancreatic cancer in humans. (See this week's Director's Update for more information on pancreatic cancer research.)
In the December 17, 2003, Genes & Development, scientists led by Dr. Ronald DePinho at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, reported that they had developed a bioengineered mouse model containing two "signature mutations": an activated form of the Kras gene and a deletion of the Ink4a tumor suppressor gene. The resulting mice develop very aggressive PDA that is lethal in about three months. Because the two genetic changes are so common in human PDA, these researchers are now using the mice to try combinations of available therapies and to identify and test novel interventions.
Meanwhile, in the December 2003 Cancer Cell, researchers led by Dr. David Tuveson, from the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania, describe a mouse model they developed by engineering a mutation in the Kras gene. This mutation "recapitulates the cardinal features" of PDA, the scientists report. These researchers have already examined blood serum from the mice with initial stages of PDA for reproducible patterns of protein changes that may herald the presence of very early disease. Studies are under way to identify the proteins and determine if they are informative for detection of human PDA, said Dr. Cheryl Marks, NCI program director for the MMHCC.
Study Examines Breast Cancer Screening Techniques
NCI's Clinical Genetics Branch is conducting the Breast Imaging Study, which evaluates the use of several new and promising breast cancer screening techniques in women at high genetic risk of breast cancer. The study is critical to improve screening for breast cancer among women who have mutations in breast cancer susceptibility gene BRCA1 or BRCA2. New techniques being evaluated include breast scanning using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and breast ductal lavage. Women who carry BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations are eligible to join the study, as well as women who have a first- or second-degree relative with breast or ovarian cancer related to BRCA mutations. More information can be found at http://breastimaging.cancer.gov.
Recombinant Cancer Vaccines Offering Promise
Although currently there are no approved therapeutic cancer vaccines, the success of ongoing research in this area could very well change that within the next decade. One area of research that is proving particularly fruitful is the development of recombinant vaccines for use either alone or as an adjunct to existing cancer therapy. These vaccines have had promising results in early clinical studies, explained Dr. Jeffrey Schlom, chief of the Laboratory of Tumor Immunology and Biology, NCI Center for Cancer Research (CCR), during the first CCR Grand Rounds of 2004.
Much of the work to date on recombinant vaccines has focused on targeting several different tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), Dr. Schlom said. One specific TAA, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), has been used as a prototype for vaccine design and development because it is overexpressed in the vast majority of colorectal, pancreatic, and nonsmall cell lung cancers, as well as other carcinomas such as breast cancer.
Of the strategies that have been tested in early clinical trials to date, five have proven effective at boosting the body's immune response, Dr. Schlom said. Included among these strategies is the use of two types of poxvirus as vectors to deliver the CEA vaccine to the tumor site and injecting granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) at the vaccination site as an adjuvant, to heighten the immune response to the CEA vaccine.
In a small, randomized clinical trial, researchers found that a "booster" approach - administering one CEA vaccine followed later by a second, different CEA vaccine - more effectively induced a CEA-specific T-cell response than use of either vaccine alone. "There was also a statistical correlation between the induction of these T-cell responses and prolonged survival," Dr. Schlom noted.
Following the positive results from early trials, recombinant vaccines were constructed containing both CEA genes and three costimulatory molecules, or TRICOM, and tested in preclinical trials.
"Compared to the vaccines devoid of costimulation or containing one or two costimulatory molecules, these vaccines were far superior in terms of antitumor effects and T-cell activation," Dr. Schlom said. Also, the cytokine, GM-CSF, he added, appeared to play a particularly important role in improving the strategy's efficacy. Researchers at NCI and major cancer centers across the country have continued to further enhance vaccines. For example, an agonist epitope has been added to CEA and CEATRICOM vaccines after it proved to further boost T-cell response compared to a CEA vaccine that relies on a native CEA epitope.
Clinical trials testing these various vaccine strategies are ongoing, Dr. Schlom said. In a collaborative clinical trial that has recently completed recruitment at Georgetown University, the CEA-TRICOM vaccines induced stable disease in 40 percent of advanced cancer patients four months after treatment. Increased survival was again seen in those patients who received a combination vaccine regimen along with a GM-CSF adjuvant. Meanwhile, several clinical trials using recombinant prostate-specific antigen (PSA)-based vaccines are ongoing in patients with various stages of prostate cancer, for instance, and a phase I trial has been launched using PSA-TRICOM vaccines.
These recombinant vaccines also are being tested in combination with other therapeutic regimens. In one preclinical model, Dr. Schlom said, the combined use of a TRICOM vaccine and local radiation demonstrated dramatic antitumor effects.
Looking forward to a time when therapeutic vaccines make their way into clinicians' armamentarium for cancer treatment, Dr. Schlom stressed that there indeed may be "fundamental differences" between the vaccines and conventional therapies.
"The immune response to a vaccine may indeed be a dynamic process that may or may not lead to the eradication of tumor," he said, "but may be sufficient to arrest tumor growth and induce a stable disease state leading to increased survival."
Depsipeptide Trial for T-Cell Lymphoma
Phase II Study of FR901228 (Depsipeptide) in Patients With Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma, Relapsed Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma, or Other Mature T-Cell Lymphoma (NCI-01-C-0049). See the protocol summary at http://cancer.gov/clinicaltrials/NCI-01-C-0049.
Principal Investigators
Why Is This Trial Important?
This trial is trying to find out if depsipeptide can help bring about remission in patients with T-cell lymphoma. Depsipeptide is a new type of anticancer agent derived from bacteria. Preliminary results from this trial are encouraging, and the study is now seeking additional patients.
"This trial is very exciting because it involves a new class of anticancer drugs that can change the way cells grow," said Dr. Bates. "Whereas many chemotherapy drugs work by causing damage to cells, depsipeptide turns on genes in cancer cells that inhibit cell growth and eventually cause the cancer cells to die."
Who Can Join This Trial?
Where Is This Trial Taking Place?
Who to Contact
NCI's Planning Document for FY05 Available
NCI's Plan and Budget Proposal for Fiscal Year 2005, The Nation's Investment in Cancer Research, outlines an action plan and related resource requirements to maximize progress in the upcoming fiscal year as the institute reaches toward the goal of eliminating the suffering and death due to cancer.
Each year, NCI prepares a plan for building on research successes, supporting the cancer research workforce with the technologies and resources it needs, and ensuring that research discoveries are applied to improve human health. This annual plan is provided directly to the President of the United States for formulating the budget request to Congress. This document is made available to NCI staff; the research community; professional organizations; advisory groups; cancer information, education, and advocacy organizations; and public and private policymakers.
The FY05 plan includes continued investment in nine research priorities in core scientific and public health areas. It can be viewed online at http://cancer.gov/pdf/nci_2005_plan or can be ordered as hard copy through the NCI Publications Locator at www.cancer.gov/publications.
Dr. K. "Vish" Viswanath, acting associate director, Behavioral Research Program (BRP), Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences, left NCI on January 3, 2004, to continue his professional and academic interests at the Harvard School of Public Health and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
To fill this leadership role, Dr. Scott Leischow, chief of the Tobacco Control Research Branch (TCRB) since 2000, has been named the new acting associate director of BRP. Prior to joining NCI, Dr. Leischow was an associate professor of public health at the University of Arizona and the director of the Arizona Program for Nicotine and Tobacco Research. He earned M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in health education from the University of Maryland at College Park and then completed a postdoctoral fellowship in behavioral pharmacology at the Johns Hopkins University, Department of Psychiatry.
Dr. Cathy Backinger has been named as the TCRB acting branch chief, a role familiar to her, as she held the position for a year prior to Dr. Leischow's arrival. Since coming to TCRB in 1998, Dr. Backinger has been responsible for the development and implementation of extramural research programs in smokeless tobacco and youth tobacco prevention and cessation. Dr. Backinger joined NCI from the Food and Drug Administration's Center for Devices and Radiological Health. She earned an M.P.H. degree from the University of Michigan and a Ph.D. degree in health policy from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County.

Chicken Thief Grabs 75 Birds
A man hired to watch over chickens at a farm on Old Highway 141 in Fenton, stole 75 of the birds instead, according to police.
The theft occurred on Oct. 30 and followed a dispute between the property owner and the man who was to watch over the chickens, police said.
Meat is His Undoing
A University City man faces criminal charges after police said he tried to steal porterhouse steaks from a grocery store. The man put two packages of porterhouse steaks down his pants. He recently had been released from jail after serving a one-year sentence for stealing meat.
Family Fingered Following Funeral
Almost $7,000 was reported stolen after a Barnhart woman invited family members over to her house after her husband's funeral on Nov. 10. The victim told officers with the Jefferson County Sheriff's Department that she noticed several items missing after family members left her home. Among the items missing were $600 in cash and several pieces of jewelry, including a man's gold wedding band.
Moving Violation
A man who enlisted help in moving into a new residence Oct. 22 on River Road, Fenton, ended up as the victim of a theft as one of his helpers drove off in his car with numerous of his personal items. After loading up his personal items and arriving at the new residence, a woman helper drove off in the man's car that was filled with his personal items, valued at $1,339. The man was able to reach the woman by phone, asking her to return with his vehicle and the items. She reportedly returned some of the belongings and the car but left again and would not answer any subsequent phone calls. Police located the woman and she was subsequently arrested on charges unrelated to the "moving day" incident.
For the "No Good Deed Goes Unpunished" File
A Valley Park woman who gave a ride to a couple, one of whom was walking with the aid of a walker, on a cold, windy day Nov. 11, had her car stolen and subsequently wrecked by the man she was trying to help. St. Louis County Police said the woman gave a ride to a 34-year-old man, who was using a broken walker, and his female companion.
The Good Samaritan woman offered to give them a ride and told them she had a walker at her home, which she no longer needed, and would give it to them. She drove the couple to her home and left her keys in the car with the motor running. St. Louis County Police said the man Null then jumped into the driver's seat and took the car. When the woman returned with the walker and two coats for the couple, her 2009 Ford Escape was gone.
No Return Policy
A thief made it easy for police to track him down after he broke into several cars in Oakville in November -- he dropped his ID card at the scene of one of the car break-ins. Police tracked him down and searched his room, where they found a variety of stolen items, including six GPS units, three iPods, a Dell laptop computer, a credit card and several other items. Police also found oxycodone pills. He was arrested.
A St. Charles man suspected a man he was selling marijuana to was an undercover police officer, and gave the buyer his money back. It turns out the buyer indeed was an undercover drug task force detective, and he didn't take refunds. Instead, the detective searched the man's premises a week later and found enough evidence to charge him with distribution of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.
When Poodles Attack
A man who was standing in his back yard on Melton Avenue in Arnold was attacked by his neighbor's poodle. The dog bit the man on the lower right leg causing a large laceration. Animal control responded and seized the dog and issued its owner a summons for a leash law violation.
Office Furniture Caper
A building superintendent and three accomplices are accused Nov. 15 of stealing $75,000 in office furniture from a company that was changing headquarters. Maryland Heights Police said they caught the four after the superintendent listed the furniture on Craigslist.
Stolen Buick Exchanged For Stolen Chevy
Five people who are accused of stealing cars from two St. Louis automobile dealerships, left one of the stolen vehicles behind at one of the dealerships. Eleven cars were stolen in all, most of which were subsequently parked in various location in the city and county. One of the cars stolen from the Lou Fusz Buick GMC dealership, however, was recovered at the Johnny Londoff Chevrolet dealership in Florissant.
Trashed Patron Trashes Can
An intoxicated man was refused entry in Ameristar Casino around 2:20 a.m. Nov. 17 and destroyed a trash can.
Chump Change
An unknown person entered victim's garage and took approximately $2 in various change from the vehicle. Nothing else was missing.
Lug Nut Thief
Thirty-two chrome lug nuts, valued at more than $300, were stolen off a vehicle Nov. 10 at Lakeside Plaza in Lake Saint Louis.
Movie Talker
One moviegoer punched another in the face Nov. 12 at the Great Escape Theater, in Fenton, for talking too much during the movie.

I just had to share the news, I am just totally elated! dh and I are going to start ttc once my iud is taken out on 6/23. I could've had it taken out tomorrow but I had too many other plans. I signed up on fertility friend last night and we're going to pick up the ovulation tests, a bbt thermometer, prenatals and extra folic acid this weekend!!! can you tell I'm excited.
I have no idea how many times I swore up and down that I'd never get pregnant again, that all that bedrest was just horrendous and I wasn't going to do it again. I have high hopes for the next pg because of Dr.E and now I have this great support network of friends near my home and everything is a completely different situation. I think everything is going to be just great![:D]
I've already lost the 10lbs requested by dr.E and that puts me at a grand total loss of 20lbs since April. I will continue working on it and exercising as long as I can through the pg[8D] My bp was doing wonderful down where he wanted it, the 100/60 range but in the past week it has been creeping back up into the 130-140's/90's again. I see him 2 days after the iud removal, maybe we will up one of my bp meds.
I can't wait to join the "newly pg" area[:D][:D][:D]

Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone, which regulates the way the body uses energy.
A low thyroid level can cause symptoms of fatigue, weakness, lethargy, weight gain, depression, memory problems, constipation, dry skin, intolerance to cold, coarse and thinning hair, brittle nails, or a yellowish tint to the skin.
Hypothyroidism usually develops slowly. It often results from a problem in which the body's own natural defense (immune) system attacks the thyroid gland (autoimmune thyroiditis or Hashimoto's thyroiditis). Hypothyroidism may also develop following radiation treatment or surgical removal of the thyroid.
Hypothyroidism is treated with medications to replace the thyroid hormone. Symptoms usually disappear within a few months after treatment begins, but most people need to continue taking thyroid hormones for life.

A Hawaii man was sentenced to a year of probation and a $200 fine for making his son walk one mile home from school as punishment. Robert Demond picked his 8 year old, and asked about a matter that had come to his attention and the son didn't respond. Demond stopped the car and told his son to walk the remaining mile to their house. Demon ended up being found guilty of a misdemeanor charge of second-degree endangering the welfare of a minor. Demond also has to take child parenting classes.
Do you agree with this punishment or should it have been something less?

There are so many things I have wanted to say about Man of Steel since seeing -- and really enjoying -- it on its opening night. Vacation and holidays have slowed me down but fear not, good citizen of Metropolis, I have not forgotten. I may yet get to all of them, but I want to make sure I share the most important.
One of the great complaints about previous Superman films, and even the entire DC universe, has been the "monochrome" appearance. Moreover, recent representations have not displayed the kind of diversity we see in our world. More succinctly, Superman's world has been almost all white when we all can plainly see that ours is not.
There have been salutary efforts. Any child of the 70s can remember the Superfriends cramming Black Vulcan, Samurai and [gag] El Dorado down our throats. Casting Sam Jones, III, as Pete Ross -- Clark Kent's boyhood best friend -- in Smallville with absolutely no explanation for the race change was a nice step forward. However, he still stuck out in the wheat fields of Kansas. More had to be done.
[Image: Man of Steel from Warner Bros. Pictures with DC Comics]
Man of Steel brought two major changes to character appearances. Oscar-nominated actor [What's Love Got to Do with It?] Laurence Fishburne was brought on to play Daily Planet Editor-in-Chief Perry White. Not only would he provide color to the newsroom but some heft to those scenes after performances in Apocalypse Now, The Color Purple, Boyz n the Hood, Othello, The Matrix and Mystic River. Fishburne told 60 Minutes that the late Ed Bradley was his inspiration for the role. Again, the shift comes with no warning nor explanation -- which is just fine with me -- and comes off fairly well.
More on that in a moment.
[Images: Buller's headshot at IMDb.com and Man of Steel from Warner Bros. Pictures with DC Comics]
The second change is significantly more nebulous. Rebecca Buller, a relatively little known actress, appears in the film for just a few scenes. The character is simply "Jenny" in the closing credits. There's a bit of putting two and two together here in noticing that there's no "Jimmy Olsen" in the picture but "Jenny" is a photographer. Though not explicitly expressed in this film, I infer that we will see more of this revamped "Jenny Olsen" in obviously intended sequels.
Aye, there's the rub...
Yes, the team of director Zack Snyder, producer Christopher Nolan and his story collaborator, screenwriter David S. Goyer, all did a laudable job in seamlessly, and rather quietly, making these updates to the tableau created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. The problem is that Fishburne and Buller are given virtually nothing to do. They are shown among the victims in the destruction of Metropolis during the final battle, perhaps to strengthen the emotional ties, but they are basically bystanders to the plot rather than components within it.
What good does it do to update these characters and then not have them do anything? I have never liked the "saga mentality" in this case -- it's why I have railed against The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King winning Best Picture because it was clearly given as an achievement for the trilogy, not the single film as it is meant to be. Disney and the Marvel Universe movies have certainly understood that. The film should be able to stand entirely alone. Maybe they will put these actors to work in future films and truly develop these cameos into characters.
I hope so.
Otherwise, if an updated character falls in Metropolis, and no one sees it, did it really happen?

Insurance Coverage for Psychological Services: Resources on the Mental Health Parity Law
A law passed in 2008, the Paul Wellstone and Pete Domenici Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (also known as the mental health parity law or federal parity law), requires coverage of services for mental health, behavioral health and substance-use disorders to be comparable to physical health coverage. Yet many people still aren't aware that the law exists or how it affects them. In fact, a 2014 APA survey found that more than 90 percent of Americans were unfamiliar with the mental health parity law.

Count on Disney to make just about anything feel good when it comes to the movies. "A spoonful of sugar" is always the primary ingredient in any recipe from the Mouse. One of my personal Christmas traditions is to catch a couple of films on December 25.
Prior to one of them, I saw this:
Imagine Slumdog Millionaire and Angels in the Outfield had a love child. I don't mean that in a good way. I am also unconvinced that Jon Hamm, despite his Mad Men success, can carry the lead in a motion picture. He is clearly there to draw in the female audience, curious to note as the gal next to me simply said "That looks terrible."
I guess we'll see how well Disney delivers this pitch next spring.

Hello to all,
We have talked quite a bit about siggies in the mod room and debated back and forth. The challenge is to not stifle creativity and fun, but at the same time prevent big siggies that take a lot of the page.
Your siggy has four lines. The intent is for:
1 Text Line
1 Pic Line
2 Ticker lines
A siggy may only have 1 pic line. The pic line can have multiple pics in it going across, but it should not exceed 320 pixels high. This means those of you that have pics on top of each other will need to change them.
Ticker lines may be substituted for Text. For example, you might have a name, DSO, and DD line and you might have a quote line.
The primary focus of these guidelines is to focus on the use of pictures. Pictures should be no more than 320 pixels high and no longer stacked on top of each other.
Please make the changes now, so that mods don't have to ask.

Angel Governing Aug 29th to Sept 2nd
Angel number 32 - ANGEL VASARIAH - Energy: CLEMENCY
(I pronounce the Angel's Name: VAW-SAW-REE-AH)
Qualities: Liberates from guilt - Honesty, kindness, magnanimity - Nobility - Elevated sense of justice - Judge, magistrate, lawyer - Ease of elocution - Modest and amiable - Positive memory, only remembers the good - Generous attitude - Naturally forgiving.
Distortions: bad manners - guilt, accusation, condemnation - flight from responsibilities - lazy to evolve - puritan, moralistic - disease likely to worsen - bad intentions - concentrate on bad memories - unjust, ignoble, bad upbringing - presumptuous - spiteful - haughty - materialistic.
I would like to share with you the following.
Standing, sitting or lying down, breathe in the name VASARIAH by inhaling through the nose, and hold your breath a few seconds. Then, exhale slowly and progressively through the nose. Repeat the exercise as long as needed to create a state of calm. Then you can continue by breathing freely while continuing to invoke VASARIAH keeping the eyes closed.
By invoking or repeating the Sacred Formula represented by the Angel's name, we create a passage between the conscious, the subconscious and the different layers of the unconscious, thus reprogramming the different Angelic states of consciousness within, and allowing ourselves to reconnect with our celestial origin. The objective of this work is to purify our soul and become totally conscious in order to rediscover the Knowledge that lies within.
VASARIAH is your Angel number 1 (Physical) if your Birthday is Aug 29th to Sept 2nd.
VASARIAH is your Angel number 2 (Emotional) if your Birthday is April 22nd, July 5th in the afternoon and July 6th, Sept 18th, Nov 30th, Feb 8th.
VASARIAH is your Angel number 3 (Intellectual) if you are born: 10h20 to 10:39 a.m.
In the picture of the Tree of Life, this Angel resides: HESED Specificity YESOD

Time to see if NCAA tourney really up for grabs
Brad Stevens is amused by all this talk of parity in the NCAA tournament.
The coach who guided little Butler to the national championship game two years in a row wonders why everyone seems to be saying all at once: Hey, there's some pretty good teams beyond the glamour conferences.
Stevens remembers his first basketball job, as Butler's director of basketball operations in 2001, when the Bulldogs easily won their first-round game as a No. 10 seed. They cruised past Wake Forest, an entry from the mighty Atlantic Coast Conference, after leading 43-10 at halftime. Yep, 43-10!Subscribe to Read!
