Striking Results Achieved in Lymph System Imaging Using MRI and Nano-Scale Contrast Agent
Determining whether breast cancer has spread to the lymph nodes may become easier to do as well as easier on the patient, based on the results of important new research presented this week at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) annual meeting.
Dr. Hisataka Kobayashi, a staff scientist in the National Cancer Institute's (NCI's) Molecular Imaging Program, reported on the development of a new nano-scale contrast agent for use in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that provides clear visualization of drainage from a breast tumor to nearby lymph nodes. Use of this new agent, dubbed G6, in two mouse models of breast cancer also allowed Dr. Kobayashi and colleagues from NCI and Johns Hopkins University to clearly visualize whether there were metastases in sentinel lymph nodes - that is, the first lymph nodes to which metastases are most likely to infiltrate - and axillary nodes. The study was conducted at the Metabolism Branch of the NCI Center for Cancer Research.Read more
Enabling Technologies Will Help Pave Way to 2015
Since the NCI announced its challenge goal to eliminate the suffering and death due to cancer by 2015, I have been asked on numerous occasions, "How are we going to do it?" The answer is as simple as it is complex. The simple answer is that we will harness the tremendous intellectual resources within the cancer community that have been producing the remarkable advances we have made in our understanding of the cancer process, and we will accelerate further progress by integrating a plethora of new enabling technologies.
The complexity of the answer comes in how we orchestrate this process: ensuring that we set up systems and processes which allow us to take full advantage of the tools and resources available to us and that we work together as a community, not in silos that foster redundancy and inefficiency and, as a result, hamper progress. I believe the research community is ready for such coordination, as evidenced by the emergence of team science and the enthusiasm of our cancer center directors for the cancer Biomedical Informatics Grid, or caBIG.Read more
Striking Results Achieved in Lymph System Imaging Using MRI and Nano-Scale Contrast Agent
Determining whether breast cancer has spread to the lymph nodes may become easier to do as well as easier on the patient, based on the results of important new research presented this week at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) annual meeting.
Dr. Hisataka Kobayashi, a staff scientist in the National Cancer Institute's (NCI's) Molecular Imaging Program, reported on the development of a new nano-scale contrast agent for use in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that provides clear visualization of drainage from a breast tumor to nearby lymph nodes. Use of this new agent, dubbed G6, in two mouse models of breast cancer also allowed Dr. Kobayashi and colleagues from NCI and Johns Hopkins University to clearly visualize whether there were metastases in sentinel lymph nodes - that is, the first lymph nodes to which metastases are most likely to infiltrate - and axillary nodes. The study was conducted at the Metabolism Branch of the NCI Center for Cancer Research.
The finding could be significant because sentinel node biopsy has shown to be just as effective in determining the extent of any metastasis as the more invasive and potentially more damaging option of removing most of the lymph nodes. [Whether sentinel node biopsy increases overall survival compared to full-armpit node dissection has not been shown. Two NCI-sponsored studies, however, are being conducted to answer that very question.]
"With the knowledge of the exact location and extent of tumor infiltration into the lymphatic system, the surgeon can minimize the incision," Dr. Kobayashi explained. If metastasis appears to be contained within the sentinel node, this not only could improve quality of life but also negate the need for further chemotherapy, he added.
In the study, MRI with the G6 contrast agent was compared with MRI using standard contrast agents in normal, transgenic, and xenograft mouse models. MRI using the G6 agent was able to visualize draining lymphatic vessels and sentinel lymph nodes - something that MRI using standard agents did not achieve. In addition, MRI with G6 was able to easily detect a one-millimeter tumor in three-millimeter lymph nodes, a level of precision 100-fold beyond what is possible using conventional imaging methods with other modalities. Finally, MRI with G6 provided images that could allow for differentiation between lymph ducts and nodes and for detection of lymph nodes completely infiltrated by cancerous cells - neither of which is possible using standard agents or other conventional imaging methods.
MRI with the G6 agent works so well, Dr. Kobayashi explained, precisely because of its nano-size, which, at 9 nanometers, is actually more than 10 times larger in diameter than most standard contrast agents. G6 is small enough to quickly get into the lymphatic ducts but still has sufficient stature to ensure that it doesn't leach from the ducts into the capillary vessels.
"This method can tell both the location of true sentinel lymph nodes and the presence or absence of metastatic cancer in those nodes within an hour by a single MRI study," Dr. Kobayashi said. "We validated the performance of this agent on the clinical machinery in the mouse model, and we expect the drug to perform as well in humans."
Enabling Technologies Will Help Pave Way to 2015
Since the NCI announced its challenge goal to eliminate the suffering and death due to cancer by 2015, I have been asked on numerous occasions, "How are we going to do it?" The answer is as simple as it is complex. The simple answer is that we will harness the tremendous intellectual resources within the cancer community that have been producing the remarkable advances we have made in our understanding of the cancer process, and we will accelerate further progress by integrating a plethora of new enabling technologies.
The complexity of the answer comes in how we orchestrate this process: ensuring that we set up systems and processes which allow us to take full advantage of the tools and resources available to us and that we work together as a community, not in silos that foster redundancy and inefficiency and, as a result, hamper progress. I believe the research community is ready for such coordination, as evidenced by the emergence of team science and the enthusiasm of our cancer center directors for the cancer Biomedical Informatics Grid, or caBIG.
But an integrated and synchronized research community still will need extraordinary tools. Therefore, we must also develop and apply enabling technologies - technologies that not only give us the ability to do things we couldn't do before but that also allow us to conduct research and discover, develop, and deliver new tests and treatments more swiftly and efficiently.
Gatherings like the AACR annual meeting held this week in Orlando provide an important pathway to foster discovery and to educate the cancer community about important advances, including those that take advantage of new technology. The work presented by Dr. Hisataka Kobayashi, discussed in the lead story for this week's NCI Cancer Bulletin is a perfect example. His work takes advantage of two important technological advances, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and nanotechnology, that may allow us to better visualize whether there has been metastasis to the lymph nodes in breast cancer patients.
NCI must lead an effort to develop and embrace the sophisticated technologies that are critical to accelerate our work to reach the 2015 goal. We are committed to working with the entire community in this effort and providing the necessary resources. This commitment is embodied in an important new NCI initiative, the National Advanced Technologies Initiative for Cancer.
This initiative is not about reinventing the wheel. Quite the contrary. It is about a bold vision to coordinate and foster technology-related initiatives and create a coordinated national infrastructure using a "hub" and "nodes" strategy. The hubs will be scientific centers of excellence attached, albeit it virtually, to nodes that are strategically developed to optimize availability and access to key technologies. In recent weeks, readers of the Bulletin have learned more about some of the NCI efforts that will play a role in this new initiative, including caBIG and nanotechnology. There are many others, such as integrative systems biology, advanced imaging technologies, and molecular epidemiology.
When you consider the tremendous potential to accelerate the pace of progress by the integration of these tools and resources into a national, coordinated effort to engineer a biomedical technology initiative, I can't help but be filled with optimism that we can achieve the 2015 goal. It is clear to me: If the NCI does what it is supposed to do as a leader in supporting basic, clinical, and population research, as well as guiding the research enterprise and providing important new enabling technologies, and if all of the dedicated researchers, clinicians, advocates, and others in the community continue to do the excellent work that holds so much promise - and we join together to keep things moving forward - how can we possibly fail?

Trans-HHS Cancer Health Disparities Progress Review Group Announces Action Plan
The Trans-HHS Cancer Health Disparities Progress Review Group (PRG) recently announced its 14-point priority action plan for combating the mounting disparities in the delivery of cancer prevention and treatment in the United States. The announcement was made at the March 25 town hall meeting of the Intercultural Cancer Council (ICC). In their report, the PRG panel calls on the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to implement overarching planning and coordination actions and to focus research discovery, program development, and service delivery activities on developing and applying evidence-based approaches tested at the community level. Their recommendations call for HHS to establish a Federal Leadership Council to mobilize resources across the federal government, form partnerships for "community-based networks for participatory research," and designate high disparity geographic areas as "Communities Empowered to Eliminate Disparities."
With the help of NCI and its director, Dr. Andrew C. von Eschenbach, working with a Federal Steering Committee comprising representatives from agencies across HHS, this PRG was appointed last summer by HHS Secretary Tommy G. Thompson and includes prominent scientific, medical, public health, and advocacy community members.
"While this progress review group focuses on cancer, it could lead to a process that will help us eliminate not only cancer disparities but all health disparities," Dr. von Eschenbach stated. "These efforts are a critical part of our mission both at NCI and across the department." NCI has regularly used the PRG approach to identify gaps in knowledge about specific cancers and groups of cancers, including lung, breast, prostate, colorectal, and pancreatic cancers, brain tumors, and leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma.
The ICC also announced a 12-step action plan at their symposium last week that lists the full implementation and funding of the Trans-HHS Cancer Health Disparities PRGs recommendations as its number one priority.
"Clearly, enough information now exists to address this problem head on - through policies that will provide ethnic minorities and the medically underserved with greater access to services and programs that are designed to prevent, detect, and treat cancer at its earliest stages while supporting these individuals through and beyond treatment," said ICC Chair Alexine Clement Jackson.

The goal of this Program Announcement with set-aside funds (PAS) is to promote studies that 1) identify the causes of brain tumor cells dispersal, 2) determine the interactions of migrating tumor cells with normal brain elements, and 3) develop interventions that target invading tumor cells. Interdisciplinary studies that apply new concepts and methodologies from developmental neuroscience, genomics, precursor cell biology, and other related fields to the analysis of tumor spread are particularly encouraged.
This PAS will use the NIH research project grant (R01) and exploratory/developmental grant (R21) award mechanisms.

Aspirin Protective Against Prostate Cancer, Study Suggests
Daily use of at least one aspirin may reduce the risk of prostate cancer by 15 percent, according to the results of a prospective study released at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) annual meeting this week in Orlando, Fla. The results are consistent with findings from a recent meta-analysis of observational studies on aspirin use and prostate cancer, said the study's lead author, Lori Sakoda, an epidemiologist in NCI's Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics.
In the study, Ms. Sakoda and colleagues examined the relationship between use of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) aspirin and ibuprofen and prostate cancer risk in more than 29,000 men enrolled in the screening arm of the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovarian (PLCO) Cancer Screening Trial. The PLCO trial - a massive clinical trial with more than 154,000 participants - was launched in 1992 to determine whether certain screening tests can reduce deaths from these four cancers. In addition, PLCO substudies are assessing additional epidemiologic factors that affect the risk of these and other cancers.
This investigation involved men in the trial who had undergone a digital rectal examination and prostate-specific antigen testing between November 1993 and September 2001. At entry into the trial, all men completed a self-administered questionnaire on NSAID use in the previous 12 months; they were then followed for the remainder of the study period. Overall, approximately 31 percent of participants reported daily aspirin use, while only 7.5 percent reported daily ibuprofen use.
In the study cohort, there were 1,338 cases of prostate cancer. Compared with men who took 0 to 3 aspirins per month, the relative risk of prostate cancer was reduced by 14 percent in men who reported taking a single aspirin daily and 21 percent in men who took two or more daily.
Despite the study's findings, "There are not sufficient data to recommend daily use of aspirin solely to prevent prostate cancer," Ms. Sakoda said. "We still lack data on important considerations, such as the optimal dose, duration, and timing of aspirin use."
High Levels of Vitamin E in the Blood Are Linked to a Lower Risk of Prostate Cancer
Men with higher levels of vitamin E in their blood were found to have a lower risk of developing prostate cancer, according to Drs. Stephanie J. Weinstein and Demetrius Albanes, researchers from NCI's Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, who reported their study results at the annual meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research in Orlando, Fla.
The study involved 300 men between the ages of 50 and 69 who were part of a larger prevention trial examining the effect of beta-carotene and vitamin E on lung and other cancer risk. During recruitment for the Alpha-Tocopherol, Beta-Carotene Cancer Prevention (ATBC) trial, which took place between 1985 and 1988, serum samples from each of nearly 30,000 Finnish participants, all of whom were smokers, were frozen and stored.
For the current report, the investigators defrosted serum samples from 100 men who developed prostate cancer over the course of the original trial. They then defrosted serum samples from 200 matched control men who did not develop prostate cancer. The scientists measured the two principal forms of vitamin E in the blood, alpha-tocopherol and gamma- tocopherol. Men with the highest serum levels of alpha-tocopherol had a 53 percent reduction in risk and those with the highest levels of gamma-tocopherol had a 39 percent lower risk.
The impetus for the current study grew out of an unexpected finding from the larger trial, in which men who took vitamin E supplements had a 32 percent lower incidence of prostate cancer (JNCI, 1998; 90:440). The investigators wanted to see if the amount of vitamin E in the serum before the men were given vitamin E pills was also related to their chance of getting prostate cancer.
This finding needs to be verified in other studies, Dr. Weinstein said, including other ethnic groups and nonsmokers. The SELECT prevention trial, which is expected to end in 2013, is investigating the effect of selenium and vitamin E supplements on prostate cancer risk and includes minorities and nonsmokers.
Pregnancies Ending in Abortion or Miscarriage Do Not Increase Risk of Developing Breast Cancer, Study Shows
Pregnancies that end in miscarriages or abortions do not increase a woman's risk of developing breast cancer, according to a study published in the March 27 issue of The Lancet. The study, conducted by members of the Collaborative Group on Hormonal Factors in Breast Cancer, analyzed data from 53 prospective and retrospective epidemiological studies performed in 16 countries.
Researchers analyzed prospective data from 44,000 women with breast cancer. This group of women had participated in studies where they reported their history of abortion or miscarriage before they were diagnosed with breast cancer.
Results were expressed as the "relative risk" of breast cancer, which compares the chances of developing breast cancer in women with, and without, some such record of abortion. A relative risk of 1.0 or less indicates no adverse effect on the subsequent risk of breast cancer. In the prospective studies, the average relative risk of breast cancer was 0.98 for women who had a pregnancy that ended as a miscarriage and 0.93 for women who had a pregnancy that ended as an abortion, indicating no increased risk of breast cancer after miscarriage or abortion.
The retrospective data included information from 39,000 women who were asked about their history of abortions or miscarriages after they were diagnosed with breast cancer. Researchers noted that these studies are potentially less reliable than the prospective studies and can give misleading results. In interviews, Dr. Richard Peto, one of the study authors, said, "Studies can give misleading results if women are asked about previous abortions only after they are diagnosed with breast cancer. This may well be because, on average, women with breast cancer are more likely than other women to disclose any prior induced abortions."
"The totality of the worldwide epidemiological evidence indicates that pregnancies ended by induced abortion do not have adverse effects on women's subsequent risk of developing breast cancer," commented Dr. Valerie Beral, another of the study authors.
Editor's Note: These results add further weight to the conclusions from NCI's Early Reproductive Events and Breast Cancer Workshop in February 2003. Workshop participants concluded that having an abortion or miscarriage does not increase a woman's subsequent risk of developing breast cancer. A summary of their findings, titled Summary Report: Early Reproductive Events and Breast Cancer Workshop, can be found at http://cancer.gov/cancertopics/ere-workshop-report.
High-Dose Chemo Plus Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation Boosts Event-Free Survival in Some Patients with Aggressive NHL
The GOELAMS research group has completed a clinical trial demonstrating that a high-dose multidrug chemotherapeutic regimen, when combined with autologous stem-cell support, may prove superior to standard chemotherapy in some adults newly diagnosed with aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). A four-drug regimen of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) has long been considered the standard of care for these patients. But several recent clinical trials have shown that a high-dose multidrug regimen known as CEER, which is similar but not identical to CHOP, can have promising results in patients with aggressive lymphoma when followed by autologous stem cell transplantation.
This randomized, controlled clinical trial, described in the March 25th issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, is the first to directly compare this newer form of multimodality therapy with CHOP in adult NHL patients with aggressive, disseminated disease. Patients were randomly assigned to two arms, with one receiving CHOP and the second CEER, followed by stem cell transplantation. Each arm was stratified into three subgroups according to whether patients had a low, low-intermediate, or high-intermediate risk of death. The event-free survival rate at five years was found to be significantly higher in the multimodality groups than in the CHOP groups: 55 percent compared with 37 percent, respectively. Among patients with a high-intermediate risk of death, the improvement in event-free five-year survival rates was more striking: 74 percent versus 44 percent, respectively. No improvement in overall survival rates after five years, however, was observed after CEER/transplant treatment. Further, no significant differences in either event-free or overall five-year survival were observed in any patients with a low or low-intermediate risk of death.
This study adds to the growing body of evidence supporting the principle that to be optimally effective, the choice among treatment options should be individually tailored to patients' precise prognostic profiles. The authors urge caution in assessing the significance of this study and discuss several of the study's limitations.
In an accompanying editorial, Dr. T. Andrew Lister concurs with the authors' assessment of the study's limitations. Nonetheless, he acknowledges that the study's findings "constitute a modest advance," concluding that "[i]t is incumbent on us to build on this information . . . so that we can continue to make incremental improvements in care."
Combining Cancer Vaccines with Conventional Therapies
Speaking at a special forum on cancer vaccines at the annual AACR meeting, Dr. Jeffrey Schlom, chief of NCI's Laboratory of Tumor Immunology and Biology (LTIB), discussed preclinical and clinical results from his laboratory's work using cancer vaccines in conjunction with conventional cancer therapies.
Cancer vaccine targets are typically overexpressed in tumors as opposed to normal tissue, which greatly reduces the risk of autoimmunity - the chance of the body mounting an immune response against normal tissue. The targets, called tumor associated antigens, only trigger a weak immune response or none at all, unless strategies are undertaken to make them more immunogenic. One of the main targets that Dr. Schlom's laboratory has identified is the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), which is normally only expressed in the fetal gut and is present in very low levels in the normal adult colon. "CEA is a particularly attractive target," commented Dr. Schlom, "because it is overexpressed in the vast majority of a wide-range of carcinomas including colorectal, pancreatic, and breast."
Dr. Schlom also discussed his work to increase the natural amount of T-cell activation by the cancer vaccines, thereby making them much more effective tumor killers. His group has been looking into varying the type of viral vector used and the fashion in which the vectors are administered. Previously, they identified that the greatest efficacy results from a protocol that involves an initial vaccination using a vaccinia vector followed by subsequent vaccinations using an avipox vector.
Trial of Four Schedules of Adjuvant Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer

Principal Investigators
Why Is This Trial Important?
This trial compares the effectiveness of four different treatment schedules using the drugs doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and paclitaxel in treating patients who have undergone surgery for stage I, II, or III breast cancer. "Preclinical studies have suggested that a 'metronomic' chemotherapy regimen - the administration of moderate doses more frequently - may optimize the antiangiogenic effects of chemotherapies," said Dr. Budd. "Furthermore, this type of regimen may serve as a ready platform upon which to add future antiangiogenic agents as they become available."

President's Cancer Panel Urges Increased Services for Native Americans
Native American cancer incidence and mortality rates have been on the rise over the past 30 years, with American Indian and Alaska Native cancer survival rates among the lowest of any U.S. ethnic group. As a result, the President's Cancer Panel has issued a report, Facing Cancer in Indian Country: The Yakama Nation and Pacific Northwest Tribes, calling for increased access to cancer screening and treatment for Native Americans, a segment of the population in which cancer appears to occur less frequently but most often is fatal.
"We must not shirk the responsibility of our Government to provide necessary cancer and other health care to the first Americans," remarked former panel chairman Dr. Harold P. Freeman. Unfortunately, as the report notes, "For many American Indians and Alaska Natives in the Pacific Northwest region of our Nation, lack of cancer screening and treatment - or dangerously delayed care - is the norm, not the exception." Identified barriers to cancer care for Native Americans include inadequate health services funding, gaps in the health care infrastructure, cultural issues, information and training needs, and geographic obstacles.
The panel also offered recommendations to address these barriers, such as increased funding for the Indian Health Service, better coordination among the HHS agencies that pay for or deliver health care to Native Americans, "patient navigator" programs to help Native American cancer patients access cancer treatment and supportive services, improved efforts to gather data on the cancer burden for all Native Americans, and research into the possible relationship between radioactive and chemical contaminants and cancer - a particular concern to the tribes in the area of the Hanford nuclear site in southeastern Washington state and the surrounding Columbia River Basin.
BIO President Discusses Partnership Between Industry and NCI
Scientists Highlight Insights from Chemical Approaches to Biology and Genomics
In his opening address, NIH Director Dr. Elias Zerhouni underscored the importance of having new ways to teach chemistry and apply it to biological problems. He delivered a quote by Nobel Laureate in Chemistry Dr. John Fenn: "The way we teach chemistry today is not designed to ignite the young mind, but to cremate it." Participants in the symposium shared a common vision of bringing chemistry and genomics together in innovative ways to make fundamentally new discoveries in biology and medicine.
Topics of special interest to the cancer research community included the work of Dr. Carolyn Bertozzi of Berkeley in targeting sugars and proteins on tumor cells for in vivo imaging, Dr. Steven Fesik of Abbott Laboratories on development of small molecule drugs as inhibitors of tumor growth and metastasis, and Dr. Baldomero Olivera of the University of Utah in developing a natural product inhibitor that could be used as a painkiller for cancer patients and those with chronic pain. The full agenda and Web cast of the symposium is available at http://genome.gov/11008534.

CEDATBURG, WI (WTAQ) - Recovery crews pulled the body of a missing Cedarburg man from a creek Friday.Twenty-four year old Robert Steinbrecker was last seen running on the ice of the creek two days after Christmas.
Somebody called the Ozaukee County Sheriff's Department to report a hat floating in Cedar Creek.
Witnesses reporting his disappearance said he was wearing a green-and-goal Green Bay Packers hat and a heavy, dark green parka, a blue T-shirt, brown pants and black tennis shoes when they last saw time.
The hat seen in the water matched the description of the one Steinbrecker was wearing.
His body was pulled out of the creek Friday.

Christmas is coming early in the city of Norcross on Wednesday. The downtown area has been turned into a winter wonderland for a scene in the movie, A Friggin' Christmas Miracle.The film stars Robin Williams, Joel McHale and Candice Bergen. It's about a dysfunctional family trying to get through the holidays. About 140 people, many of them local residents, will be used as extras as they line up at the Norcross Station Café to see Santa Claus.
Cafe owner Ken Weatherford says it's great for the city.
"I think it brings a lot of recognition to the town, sheds a light. People don't know we're here, really. I've had my restaurant here for nearly 20 years and people still say, where is downtown Norcross," said Weatherford.
The project will being in plenty of money for the local economy. Kristen McGary lives in Atlanta, and she was hired as the set decorator.
"Every single thing that you see that we have to buy or rent we have many, many, many vendors and they're all, you know...everybody is profiting from this kind really fun thing to do," said McGary.
She says she didn't have to think about accepting the job.
"You get hired by a film company, and they say would you like to set decorate a Christmas movie with Robin Williams and you say absolutely, yes," McGary said.Officials say shops and restaurants in the area will remain open, but advise those coming they could be in the background of some of the shots in the film. Off duty officers will be in the area to help with traffic and parking.Shooting is expected to last all day. The film is scheduled to be released later this year.

Katy Perry + John Mayer Are Keeping Her Neighbors 'Wide Awake'
Katy Perry, who turns 28 today (Oct. 25), and her on-again, off-again beau John Mayer are reportedly keeping her neighbors 'Wide Awake,' like her song of the same name.
Not because they are collaborating or are literally making beautiful music together, but because they seem to be having some loud sex late at night. Additionally, the duo keeps late hours and plays music… loudly. Uh oh. That's not very neighborly behavior.
Star reports that Perry's West Hollywood neighbors are fed up with the pop duo's antics and do not seem impressed by either artist's fame. They "have very loud sex, keep very late hours and like to turn up the tunes" (quotes courtesy of Hollywood Life). They are famous and have crazy schedules, and probably don't realize that the people who surround them don't.
While it must suck to be Perry's neighbor to have to listen to all that noise, all of the time, at least the singer has found some romantic happiness almost a year after splitting with comedian hubby Russell Brand. We weren't sure that she and Mayer would last, given his serial dating history (and his tendency to blab about his romances in the press) and hers.
Hopefully they can reach a compromise with the neighbors and tone it and turn it down!

According to Smith County Adult Probation officers, Kelly Gage, 50, of Gun Barrel City was arrested for violations of his bond. Gage was on pre-trial bond supervision.
According to police documents, Gage was charged on October 11, 2012, with public intoxication and assault. Gun Barrel City police located and arrested him on Oct. 12, and alerted Smith County probation officers of the arrest.
Smith County adult probation notified Judge Kerry Russell of the bond violation, which led Russell to issue a warrant for Gage's arrest. Gage was arrested by Smith County Probation officers on October 25, and remains in Smith County jail.
Gage was arrested in 2011 for allegedly assaulting his wife, Patti McHugh Gage, on Thanksgiving, causing severe head trauma. His wife later died at a Tyler hospital.
He was later released on his own recognizance after there was not enough proof to show that Gage caused the blunt force trauma that ultimately led to his wife's death.
However, on Tuesday, District Attorney Matt Bingham told us that there is new evidence that makes him "feel much more confident about the case."

I have an '02 Chevy Trailblazer and need a set of crossbars to carry two canoes/kayaks. It has a standard roof rack on it. What accessories do I need to attach the round bars to the existing roof rack?
Wayne Christoffersen
Member since
That's a bit of an open ended question and would take a lot for a full answer here in the community. If you give us a call then one of our reps can go through all the details with you and we can narrow down exactly what you are going to need.
Otherwise if you click on the Yakima Car Rack Configurator banner on this page it will pull you over to the Yakima site and with your vehicle specs imputed it you can select everything you need and then they will transpose those parts into your backcountry.com cart.
Built to last!
Thomas Briley

These bars are definitely built to last. They fit perfectly on my 2012 Subaru Impreza without sticking out too much. Now I don't feel like my car is handicapped anymore!

Member since
I have a 2009 Scion XB that has no type of factory rails on the roof, nothing. I am getting into kayaking and want to be able to transport using this vehicle. How do I mount these and what do I need to order so I can use them, or should I order something else?
Angus Bohanon
Member since
You'll need what are called "towers," and they vary vehicle to vehicle. Luckily, both Backcountry and Yakima have web apps that'll walk you through exactly what will fit your specific car. Go here (http://yakima.com/fit/partner/?partnerId=10&showWhispbar=true&location=http://www.backcountry.com/Store/catalog/search.jsp?q=yakima&s=u) to figure it out.

Great rack, great bars!
Made in the USA
Johnathan Rambo
Member since
I think these are the strongest crossbars on the market. Much more durable than manufacturer cross bars and a much more universal design than Thule and some other companies out there. Need I also say Yakima made in the USA which is another bonus. Thule is swedish and are there really any other companies than that.
Yakima RoundBar
Peter Gram
Member since
I installed the 58" bar on my Subaru Outback. The length sticks out a few inches past the side of the car, but never seems to get in the way. The extra length was perfect for carrying two touring kayaks side by side.
The old standard
Member since
Not sure how to review a roof rack bar but these are great. I have had every length of these made on all sorts of vehicles. They have held bikes, kayaks, mattresses, mother in laws and everything else in between.
If you need a bar, this will work.

is the diameter of these bars 1 1/2'' or 1 1/8'' like the yakima website says?
Phil Maher

They're 1 1/8" diameter.
Yakima - 58" Round Bar
Member since
I have a Mazda 3 and decided to go with the 58" which is a bit longer than the recommended. You can fit two racks on there easily only problem is you have to worry about getting out of the car and hitting your head.
Member since
These bars are very solid, I'm sure they will last. Holds 2 highrollers nicely and could probably fit 2 smaller bike racks. Fits just a skybox 21, and fits just the FatCat 6.

David Wheeler
Member since
Can these bars be trimmed to fit ? Say i want 52"
Jason Livingston
Member since
Absolutely. I would measure twice and cut once though:). I believe it's always better to get longer bars just in case. Once you have them on your car, you can determine if they are too long. The only recommendation from Yakima is that the weight limit of your rack system hasn't been exceeded. You can have as long a bar as you want. Obviously if the bar is too long, it may cause people exiting the vehicle to hit their heads.
Donald Schmit
Member since
Also, the other thing to watch out for is that you do want some extra on each side of the towers. I don't remember if it said 1 inch or 2 but when I installed my rack it did say to ensure there was a certain amount of extra on each side.

I love my Yakima 58" crossbars. They are mounted on my 2007 Toyota Tacoma tie down cleats via L2S Sport Rack Brackets. Fits all my gear leaving room for whatever else I may need. Great combo!!
Great platform for any system
Jean-Yves Couput

Do the job! Very solid bars and heavy as well... Put some glue on the bar ends (just a little) because they fit large

Member since
Write your question here...Anyone know what size I need to outfit a Rav 4?
Member since
The recommended size for a Rav4 (06, base model, you'd want to check on your exact car on yakima.com) needs a 58" bar. However, this is really just a "minimum size". If you go with this, you probably won't be able to fit any attachments to the outer part of your bars. My car (Outback) also says to go with the 58", but I have 66" bars. They allow for me to mount bike trays on the outer part of the rack. On a taller car like yours, you probably don't have to worry about passengers running in to longer bars, so I'd say go longer... get out the tape measure and see how much overlap you'd have with different size bars, and figure out what you want to carry, and order accordingly!
Member since
Super solid and tough cross bar. I dig the round Yakima over the Square Thule... not sure why, Just seems more sturdy, more aerodynamic, more compatible and IMO better looking.
The 58" size is perfect on my 04' Honda Pilot... The 66" would have turned it into a boeing 737...
It's a bar...
Joseph Smith
Member since
It is round, it is long, it is sturdy, and it is solid. I most definitely trust my bike on these bars. Installed on a 07 GMC Envoy. But kind of dumb end caps are not included. Is it that hard to include 50 cents worth of round plastic?
Good solid set-up
Member since
Used Low Riders from a 2004 Grand Cherokee, but had to purchase longer bars (58" vice the 48" I had) in order to accommodate the wider roof-line of the 2008 Liberty (so much for the definition of "grand"???) Anyway, old end-caps and Low Riders transferred w/o problem and BackCountry's order was fulfilled rapidly and price was right. A good solid set up...and roof-line will fit two kayaks w/o problem.
View all contributions... Be patient, it might take a while.

It's funny how different my body knows the minute it's out of alignment. Once the chiropractor whips you into shape you realize how you're supposed to feel so when you get out of shape you can tell right away. This is a good thing. Because you feel that something is wrong right away you can get into the chiropractor right away to get it fixed and you adjust pretty easily. If you let things go too long the adjustment can be more difficult and you may have to go in for a couple of adjustments close together to try to get back on track.
I've been seeing Dr. Kevin at Draeger Chiropractic and Laser Center in Weston for regular maintenance so I am now on a schedule of about every 6 weeks. Though I know that if I start feeling discomfort any time before that 6 weeks is up I just need to give the office a call and I can come in sooner. Better to do that than wait until the scheduled appointment.
There are lots of different reasons my back could be out of alignment. It could be because of some unusual activity I did over the weekend, some sort of accident, or maybe just sleeping wrong. No matter what caused it it's nice to know that Draeger Chiropractic and Laser Center is only a phone call away.

Have you ever seen a pure albino animal or bird? I did once. Several years ago during winter, I looked out across the back yard at a flock of juncos (that's the little black and white birds we have here in winter I grew up calling "snow birds") and one of them was snow white.
That was before I owned a decent camera and my attempt at a photo revealed little more than a white speck among the black and white birds.

Long before the warm-up, Minnesotans were dreaming about summer life in the land of 10,000 lakes, but Mother Nature seems keen to keep boaters guessing when those lakes will be ready.
"Boat sales per se have been good through the last month. Getting people to take delivery of their boat is a different story," said Matt Mueller, at Minnesota Inboard.
The average ice-out date for Lake Minnetonka is April 15, but open water arrived on March 21 last year. Boaters and businesses are still waiting to see when the ice will disappear this spring.
"Well, I looked at the lake coming down to pick up the boat and it still looks like a 7-Eleven slushie," said Jay Cerny. "It's getting close -- maybe by this weekend."
The ice is far from thawed in the middle of Lake Minnetonka -- and far from thin. So, the crew from Tonka Bay Marina decided to lend a helping hand to hurry up the process by launching ice breakers.
"I've been here 45 years. I've never seen it this late," Gabriel Jabbour told FOX 9 News.
According to the Fresh Water Society, the latest ice-out on record at Lake Minnetonka was set on May 8, 1856. With ice on the lake ranging from 6 to 18 inches thick as of Monday, a new record could be on the way.
Many business-owners say they are behind schedule on what they had planned, and they expect a mad dash to get boats and docks in the water.
"Thirty years I've been doing this and we've never had it this late. We've always been running by April 20th," Dave Lawrance, of Paradise Charter Cruises. "This year, it's a lot of curve balls."
Lawrance's 70-foot Paradise Destiny 2 is still sitting in dry dock, and he's had to reschedule a couple of cruises to another boat on the Mississippi. By this time last year, he'd already run a dozen cruises on the lake -- and he hopes summer will show up soon now that spring has sprung.

By Taryn AsherFox 2 NewsDETROIT (WJBK) -- It was all smiles and kisses as a Detroit man and his best friend are reunited at Detroit's Sixth Precinct.Kenny Shannon admits he didn't think he was going to get his beloved Yorkie back after thieves busted into his double barred house Sunday night and stole his valuables and his eight-year-old dog. But then Fox 2 aired his story.This is how it all unfolded. Shannon came home to find a note taped to his door that basically said I saw the story last night and I know where you dog is right at this moment. Shannon called the number on the note and soon found out if he wanted his dog back, he was going to have to pay up."Some lady answered the phone. She said that she had bought my dog from a 'crackhead' for $750 and that I could get the dog back if I wanted it."Shannon asked for a picture to confirm it was in fact his pint-sized pup. When he didn't hear back, he called again."A gentleman answered the phone and he said that the girl didn't know what she was talking about, but he knew where I could find my dog but he wanted $1,500.""They kind of infuriated me. Not only [do] you have the audacity to try to sell me back my property, but you want $1,500 for it?"Shannon hung up and called Detroit Police, who told him to call back and tell them he would pay the money. Two undercover officers from the breaking and entry task force showed up and waited."The cops wanted me to make sure that they had my dog. So the guy actually got out of the car with my dog in his hand, and he's like, 'Where's the money?' And I'm like, 'Hold on. I'll get it for you.'"Shannon pressed send on his cell phone to alert the officers."When I saw them get back in the car, I was just praying that the cops could catch them before they got away and, in fact, they did. So I was really appreciative for that. So the cops did an excellent job.""I appreciate Fox 2 for putting it on the air and helping me get my dog back because without Fox 2, the word wouldn't have got out and I'm pretty sure they never would've called me."Police believe the same guys that are in custody are also responsible for stealing all of Shannon's stuff and his dog. They plan to run the fingerprints to see if there is a match.

FallLine was founded in 1981 in Huntington Beach, California. Its beginnings reach back to 1978, when our founder left his job at a polyurethane chemical manufacturing company to realize his dream of starting his own business. He had several years of experience in molding polyurethane and filling tires, which precipitated his interest in the molding business.
An avid interest in alpine skiing was the impetus for building a business wrapped around the sport he loved. The first products manufactured were recovered drive sprockets for snow groomers. Using expertise developed early in his career, he was able to extend the life of these sprockets more than 100%. This gave FallLine an immediate success on which to grow and open new doors.
One new product lead to another. Creative product ideas emerged from collaborating with customers who were frustrated with materials that would not stand up to harsh environments. Products used for ski area operations were developed and tested by customers who were excited about the success achieved through the use of polyurethane. In the mid 80's, patents were issued to FallLine for flexible grooming technology and a modular ski storage system.
In 1987 FallLine moved to Reno, Nevada. Reno provided a friendly business environment and closer proximity to customers in the Lake Tahoe area. An international distribution network was established to provide our products to ski areas worldwide.
In 1995 FallLine built a state of the art facility specifically designed to manufacture polyurethane products. The decision was made to expand the business into other markets and industries. FallLine took its urethane technology and applied it to manufacturing products for a wide variety of demanding applications.
Today we are recognized as leaders in manufacturing urethane products for the ski, snow removal, construction, and sports recreation markets. We also focus on manufacturing custom molded urethane products to meet the specific needs of diverse customers from array of other industries.
FallLine continues to be a family owned business with a second generation of leadership. All of our manufacturing operations are under one roof and operate five production lines that can produce single pours of over 100 lbs. From initial concept through the time the product leaves the shipping dock, each order is handled with priority. We take pride in our workmanship and realize that it is our customers who hold the key to our future.

By TARYN ASHERMyFox Detroit Reporter
DETROIT (MyFox Detroit) -- It has been nearly two months since a woman was carjacked in Detroit. Police were holding her car during their investigation, then she learned the impound lot wanted her to pay hundreds of dollars to get it back, that is until the Problem Solvers were called.
"That's all. I just want my car back so I can continue on with my life and go to school and go to work," said Meisha Davis.
On July 10, Davis and her boyfriend were carjacked at a Detroit gas station.
"Two guys ran up on my boyfriend. Both of them had guns. I ran the opposite way."
That was the last time the college freshman saw her 2007 Silver Chevy Cobalt. Then a little over a week later, police found the car abandoned, but unharmed on the city's west side. It was towed to Boulevard and Trumbull Towing in Detroit. Detroit Police held it there as evidence.
"We're trying to do investigation and do fingerprints and different things like that, so I'm like okay. I still constantly (called) him about my car because I didn't want the price to raise up even more if my car was off hold."
Her grandmother, who bought the car, was helping Davis to get it back.
"Running around, nobody (seems to want) to step up and do anything about it," said Mabell McCullough.
"They never called me. I called them," Davis said.
Six weeks later, Davis learned her car was ready, but when she went to pick it up, she found out it was going to cost her $723 to get it back. And get this, all that time her car was being held for evidence running up the tab, it appears investigators forgot one key piece -- the wallet of one of the alleged carjackers with his driver's license sitting in the front seat.
"That's one of the boys who did it. Now there (were) two guys. I called the detective today, like so you... had my car on hold for a whole month saying you (were) doing investigation, and the evidence was right here on the seat," Davis explained. "What do you want us to do with the wallet? He said bring it to my tomorrow."
Davis was able to see her car, but still couldn't afford to get it back until the Problem Solvers got involved.
The manager of B&T Towing showed us the paperwork. The car was ready to be released July 27, a month ago, and said if she was a victim of a violent crime, Detroit Police pay the impound fee, something the detective neglected to include on the property release form. However, now that they know, Davis will be able to get her car back for free.
We did ask Detroit Police about this. A spokeswoman told us that they plan to look into the matter and that someone from the Criminal Investigations Bureau will contact this victim on Wednesday.

The Global Studies BA major is rooted in political science, economics, sociology, geography and history. Students in this major integrate theory and research to examine critical cultural and geopolitical issues.
The Global Studies bachelor's degree program at Lesley University offers students the opportunity to study individuals, societies and systems globally. Based on a foundation in political science, economics, sociology, geography and history, students are able to integrate theory and research so as to understand the complex nature of political, cultural and economic global issues. Applying theory and practice serves as an integral component of the program: Students participate in at least two internships in varied settings - including government; advocacy organizations, and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) - addressing issues ranging from climate change to human rights to refugee crises.
Coursework will include a focus on the following areas of study:
The Global Studies major is well-suited to students wishing to pursue graduate studies, planning careers with an international and/or multicultural orientation, and for those interested in law, policy, and advocacy.
Given the importance of language mastery for those preparing to work internationally, all students majoring in Global Studies are strongly advised to take two semester courses in a foreign language as part of their program of study, and encouraged to participate in a Study Abroad program.
This course examines core concepts and issues comprising the emerging field of global studies, and addresses the challenges they pose to the global community and its citizens. Students will engage in researching select global issues and investigating prospective career options as they consider their personal and professional identity in the field of global studies.

By Amy LangeFox 2 NewsDETROIT (WJBK) -- 30-year-old Tony Mitchell, a cherished son, autistic and trapped inside his burning home on Kentfield in the Brightmoor neighborhood on the city's west side. He had awakened his mother, Beatrice, around 2:30 Friday morning to tell her there was smoke in the house."She got up, tried to get them both out of the house, but he had to use the bathroom and somehow got caught in the bathroom," said Ronnie Griffin.He said his nephew saved his mother's life, but because of his special needs he could not save his own. His mother and neighbors sure tried.Neighbor Richard Bryant grabbed a shovel, ran across the street and started knocking out windows trying to get to Tony, but he just couldn't reach him.There were no fire trucks, at least not for a few minutes when every second counted, even though Engine 57 is just six blocks away, a two minute response time. It was closed for the day due to the city's financial problems. Instead Ladder 26 and Engine 54 had to come from two miles away still making it in an impressive four minutes, but it was too late. They tried to find Tony, but couldn't locate him until they put the fire out."Within a half a mile of the station, we have 2,000 students and three schools. We've got 28 churches," said Peter Lisiecki.He also explained that within a mile and a half of Engine 57 are 50,000 residents and 400 businesses.Lisiecki is with a coalition of community activists who met with the fire commissioner before the holidays to try to convince him to reopen Engine 57 full time. It's clearly a matter of life and death."This fatality shows about how urgent the matter is," Lisiecki said. "We can't afford to wait."We heard from the commissioner that the cause of the fire appears to be electrical.

A teenger is dead after two teens allegedly tried to rob a basketball coach outside Detroit's Martin Luther King High School. The coach was carrying a gun and he used it. Saturday night, a vigil was held for the teen.
Fox 2's Ronnie Dahl talked to his mother. Click on the video player to watch.
Priscilla Scott, family members and her son's friends, gathered in the snowy parking lot where it's believed her 16 year old son, Michael Scott was shot. Detroit police say Scott and his 16 year old friend were attempting to rob the 70 year old girl's assistant basketball coach Friday around 7:30pm. The lady Crusaders had just won another game. The coach was walking some of the students to their cars when he says Scott and his friend pulled a gun on them. Michael's family says that wasn't him."Did your son have a gun? My son don't have a gun, no, my son don't have no gun," his mother told Fox 2. (Did the other kid?) I don't know, not that I know."
The coach, a reserve police officer, was carrying his own gun, and he was licensed to do so. He fired at the two teenagers, hitting both if them. Michael Scott died."They weren't in danger of my son," Scott said. "I don't feel, not Michael, he is not like that, I don't believe it."
Michael's mother is remembering him as a son with dreams, a teen who loved basketball. The 11th grader was enrolled at MLK. She's urging his fellow classmates to finish school and graduate in honor of her son.

Beautiful fantasy scene, Marya! Neat idea on the multi-colored title.
You need to re-do the link under your photo... it leads to page 1 of this thread - not to the gallery where your photo is. Want everyone to be able to find easily so they can leave some love. Thanks for joining us this month.
Here is one from me. I used the font to date my photo ( hope thats enough - if not just let me know and I'll make another layout)
I used Keystone Scraps - Whiling away winter.
Kristy, can barely see the date or the font used... but that is okay. You did use the font somewhere on the layout. Maybe next month you can make the featured font larger so we can see it... like in the title or journaling large enough to read. Oh, what a cute photo!!! We have been doing that lately to keep the toes warm. Brrrr... winter weather has arrived so the fireplace is wonderful to help warm us up!!
Thanks for joining in this month. Think you and the others will like next month's font...

It should surprise no one that National Rifle Association chief executive Wayne LaPierre has vowed to fight President Obama's effort to require background checks on almost all would-be gun purchasers. Never mind that Americans overwhelmingly support that common-sense measure. Or that an estimated 25 to 35 percent of gun purchases currently go forward without such a check. Or that requiring nearly universal background checks could help keep guns out of the hands of terrorists, felons, and the mentally ill.
Hysteria and absolutism are, after all, LaPierre's trademark tools for rallying his troops.

(WMC-TV) – For the first time, Arkansas fisherman Robert Randleas shared his story of how he made the grim discovery of a body in his fishing spot.
The commercial fisherman told Action News 5 the day started out like many with him casting nets for fish. But today is a day he said he will not soon forget.
"It was sickening," Randleas said. "I called 911."
Randleas was out on the Mississippi River with his son about a mile and a half south of the bridge over the river that leads to Helena-West Helena.
"I was setting out nets," Randleas said. "My son said that's a deer daddy that's deer floating. I said that's not a deer. We eased up on it and found it was a body."
Randleas called 911. The Helena-West Helena Fire Department and other responders showed up and retrieved the body. Randleas said it is a white man who appeared to be in his 40's or 50's.
"He had tennis shoes and socks and no clothes," Randleas said of the body he discovered.
Sheriff Byrd said at this point investigators do not have an identity on the body.
"Right now the body is in the morgue at the Helena Regional Medical Center and it is going to the Arkansas State Crime lab," Phillips County Sheriff Neal Byrd said.
Randleas said it appeared to have been in the water for quite some time. He said the body was floating in a current.
"It was just a current," Randleas said. "It wasn't in the main channel of the river. It was a current."
Randleas said he has retrieved the bodies of friends who went missing but this was different.
"But like that just unexpected almost running over it," Randleas said. "It's just shocking. Pretty shocking."
The Phillips County Sheriff said the crime lab in Little Rock will start looking for clues to the identity of the body. That could include using DNA.
