Using the candidate gene approach, Blanco and his team were able to identify a tiny gene variant related to the risk of cardiotoxicity.
"We pinpointed the genetic difference or polymorphism that makes an enzyme work faster or slower in patients," said Blanco, "slower is better."
They zeroed-in on carbonyl reductases (CBR1 and CBR3) -- two enzymes that break down anthracyclines into cardiotoxic alcohol metabolites. Blanco notes that in mouse models, higher levels of CBRs or faster enzymes dictate higher levels of these metabolites -- and more cardio toxicity.
The research showed that the risk of cardiomyopathy was significantly increased among individuals with two copies of the "G" version of the CBR3 polymorphism when exposed to low-to-moderate doses of anthracycline.
Blanco says that while the results of the study validated the findings of an earlier study in a totally independent cohort of cancer survivors, further study is required.
"We have to be careful," says Blanco. "So far, we are showing an association, not yet causation. Our next step will be to conduct a prospective study -- where we don't study individuals who were exposed to anthracyclines in the past but follow them in real time as they are receiving the drug and after."
What does this mean for children who are taking or have taken anthracyclines?
"If we stop using anthracyclines we will not be able to cure up to 90 percent of the children who suffer from acute lymphoblastic leukemia." Blanco says. "Parents must continue to have their children's health monitored long after the cancer is cured to identify cardiac problems if they develop."

What is liberalism? It is the philosophical lie that keeps America going, rendering life meaningless by a (false) pluralism. Let me explain.
By Brian Hanson
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
3/18/2014 (1 year ago)
Published in Blog
Keywords: Liberalism, Meaning of Life, Relativism, marriage, gay marriage, freedom, USA, March for Life
WASHINGTON, DC - The (so-called) freedom we enjoy here in the USA - a freedom whereby ultimate and absolute claims about the meaning of life are purposefully left undefined in order to leave people 'free' to "choose" their own meaning for their life - is what gives birth to pluralism.
How wonderful it must be, we think, to be able to live peaceably side-by-side with so many varied groups of persons with their differing (ultimate and absolute) views on life's meaning. Our country purports to not embrace one vision of human life in order to secure this (false) freedom that allows for plurality.
Oh really? It is an illusion to think that this is actually the case.
To not embrace an ultimate and absolute vision about the meaning of life is to actually have an ultimate and absolute vision. It is saying that the human being in his essence is a chooser for himself; the meaning of life is to be able to choose any meaning. It is a subtle point of clarification, but a crucial one.
Life is precious...save one now
To embrace that the meaning of life is to choose a meaning for oneself is essentially to say that life is inherently meaningless until one chooses a meaning. Such a choice can only be arbitrary, for all choices are in this view (supposedly) equal, and therefore are equally meaningless.
This is what allows for a March for Life to take place on the National Mall in Washington, DC each January, where thousands are invited to participate - and then on any other given day, a rally for promoting 'gay marriage' is also allowed to take place. From the standpoint of the 'freedom' in our country, both the March for Life and a rally for 'gay marriage' are 'equal' as 'choices,' which essentially renders them both meaningless. The (hidden) ultimate and absolute view of the meaning of life in this so-called 'freedom' allows for persons or groups - even very large groups - to gather in order to inspire others, but they are not viewed as having any actual claim on reality. Tacitly (and subtly), the only allowed forum for life's meaning is to be able to 'choose' a meaning, not that a meaning actually exists prior to any 'choice'.
In the end, the plethora of 'choices' is disseminated into society as a rather shallow pluralism. In the meantime, there is a dictatorship in our so-called 'free country' by way of presuming to not define the meaning of life - by actually defining it in the same instance.
At bottom, it is a false humility, an inability for truly receiving reality, the meaning of life. Such a dictatorship renders life meaningless by incapacitating itself for receiving the revelation of Jesus Christ who, as the Second Vatican Council taught, fully reveals the meaning of human life.
Philosopher John Milbank notes how our country allows for total diversity of choices without actually allowing for any choice to be completely effective. People are allowed to inspire people in society, but not to concretely form it.
Another name of this perverse notion of pluralism and (false) freedom is what Pope Benedict XVI called the dictatorship of relativism (which I alluded to above). 'It is a political and practical lie,' he famously (and rightly) said.
This is also known as liberalism.

We've got five pairs of tickets to give away to the Globe Theatre's screening of their production of "The Comedy of Errors" on Thursday, June 25 at 7PM at the Guild 45th. Enter to win today!
We're thrilled that the Globe Theatre will be bringing their stage production of The Comedy of Errors to the screen at the Guild 45th Theatre on Thursday, June 25 at 7PM. We've got 5 pairs of tickets to give away.
Enter to win today. Contest ends at midnight on June 21, 2015.
The Comedy of Errors
Take one pair of estranged twin brothers both called Antipholus (Matthew Needham and Simon Harrison), and one pair of estranged twin servants both called Dromio (Jamie Wilkes and Brodie Ross), keep them in ignorance of each other and throw them into a city with a reputation for sorcery, and you have all the ingredients for theatrical chaos. One Antipholus is astonished by his foreign hospitality; the other enraged by the hostility of his home town. The Dromios, caught between the two, are soundly beaten for obeying all the wrong orders. Basing his plot on a farce by Plautus, Shakespeare caps the mayhem of his Roman original to build up a hectic tale of violent cross-purposes, furious slapstick and social nightmare. The final Globe On Screen film for 2015, recorded earlier in the year, brings the perfect light relief to close an epic season of war and tragedy. This sell-out production employed authentic Renaissance costumes and staging and will have cinema audiences roaring with laughter.

US: PepsiCo board backs CEO, rejects Trian split call
By Katy Askew | 28 February 2014
Board backs Nooyi in Trian spat
PepsiCo's board of directors has thrown its weight behind CEO Indra Nooyi and once again rejected calls from Trian Partners to split into two companies.
In a letter to Nelson Peltz, the activist investor behind Trian, PepsiCo director Ian Cook said the board has revisited the suggestion but again concluded it was not the most appropriate course for PepsiCo or its investors. Cook said what he called the "financial engineering" of a break-up would erode value for shareholders, not create it.
"PepsiCo's value is maximised as an integrated food and beverage company," Cook insisted. "The board and management have concluded that the financial engineering you propose erodes value for shareholders rather than creates value."
Peltz first called for a split of PepsiCo into a fast-growth snacks business and a slow-growth beverages unit last year. He suggested the snacks arm should be merged with Mondelez International. He dropped the call for a merger with Mondelez in January when the Cadbury maker offered him a board seat.
However, Trian has continued to push for PepsiCo to be broken up. Earlier this month, Peltz said he would take his arguments to shareholders in a bid to gain support.
Peltz believes PepsiCo's low-growth drinks and high-growth snacks businesses are fundamentally different models and would operate better independently. PepsiCo management has repeatedly rebuffed this suggestion.
Earlier this month, Nooyi announced the completion of a strategic review that would see PepsiCo retain its drinks business. At the time, the company also unveiled an increase in annual profits, a share buyback plan and the extension of its cost-cutting initiative to 2019.
Speaking at the Consumer Analyst Group of New York conference last week, management detailed how it is leveraging the benefits of holding mega brands in both the drinks and snacks categories.

Tiger Woods shoots 70 in final round at PGA Championship
More Golf: Leaderboard | Rankings | Schedule | Expert Picks | Equipment | FedEx Cup
The streaks continue!
Tiger Woods has now gone eight straight rounds at Oak Hill without breaking par. He shot a 70 on Sunday (32 on the back nine) to finish at 4 over for the tournament. In fact, in two appearances at this course (2003 and 2013) he's a combined 16 over.
Despite that, Woods said after his round he still loves the course:
He's also now 28 over in his weekend rounds in the last eight majors. I don't know if you're aware but that's not going to get it done.
He also hasn't broken 70 on the weekend in a major in his last nine tries -- it hasn't happened since his fourth round at the Masters in 2011 when he shot 67.
The Woods narrative of late has been his poor weekend putting at the majors but this week it was his driver that failed him. He hit zero of nine fairways on Saturday and Sunday with his driver. That's cringe-worthy.
Here's a look at his Sunday card:
The scary part if you're a Woods fan is how pedestrian he looked this week. Not only did he never show any signs of life, he wasn't even close.
It got to the point by the end of the week that you expected him to miss greens and make bogeys, and if you didn't, you probably should have.
So for the fifth straight full PGA Tour season Woods will go winless at major championships. He hasn't won one since he turned 33.
And as Justin Ray of ESPN points out, this goes beyond a 2013 whiff. Only one man has ever won five or more majors after the age of 38, the same age Woods will be when the Masters gets going in April 2014. And as you well know by now Woods needs five to pass Jack Nicklaus for the all time record.
Every year we hear (we buy into) the "this is the year Tiger gets back on track at the majors."
I'm starting to think "that year" might never come.

Spies for Hire: The Secret World of Intelligence Outsourcingby Tim Shorrock
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In Spies for Hire, investigative reporter Tim Shorrock lifts the veil off a major story the government doesn't want us to know about — the massive outsourcing of top secret intelligence activities to private-sector contractors.
Running spy networks overseas. Tracking down terrorists in the Middle East. Interrogating enemy prisoners. Analyzing data from spy satellites and intercepted phone calls. All of these are vital intelligence tasks that traditionally have been performed by government officials accountable to Congress and the American people. But that is no longer the case.
Starting during the Clinton administration, when intelligence budgets were cut drastically and privatization of government services became national policy, and expanding dramatically in the wake of 9/11, when the CIA and other agencies were frantically looking to hire analysts and linguists, the Intelligence Community has been relying more and more on corporations to perform sensitive tasks heretofore considered to be exclusively the work of federal employees. This outsourcing of intelligence activities is now a $50 billion-a-year business that consumes up to 70 percent of the U.S. intelligence budget. And it's a business that the government has tried hard to keep under wraps.
Drawing on interviews with key players in the Intelligence-Industrial Complex, contractors' annual reports and public filings with the government, and on-the-spot reporting from intelligence industry conferences and investor briefings, Spies for Hire provides the first behind-the-scenes look at this new way of spying. Shorrock shows how corporations such as Booz Allen Hamilton, Lockheed Martin, SAIC, CACI International, and IBM have become full partners with the CIA, the National Security Agency, and the Pentagon in their most sensitive foreign and domestic operations. He explores how this partnership has led to wasteful spending and threatens to erode the privacy protections and congressional oversight so important to American democracy.
Shorrock exposes the kinds of spy work the private sector is doing, such as interrogating prisoners in Iraq, managing covert operations, and collaborating with the National Security Agency to eavesdrop on Americans' overseas phone calls and e-mails. And he casts light on a "shadow Intelligence Community" made up of former top intelligence officials who are now employed by companies that do this spy work, such as former CIA directors George Tenet and James Woolsey. Shorrock also traces the rise of Michael McConnell from his days as head of the NSA to being a top executive at Booz Allen Hamilton to returning to government as the nation's chief spymaster.
From CIA covert actions to NSA eavesdropping, from Abu Ghraib to Guantánamo, from the Pentagon's techno-driven war in Iraq to the coming global battles over information dominance and control of cyberspace, contractors are doing it all. Spies for Hire goes behind today's headlines to highlight how private corporations are aiding the growth of a new and frightening national surveillance state.
"Even James Bond is temping these days. According to investigative journalist Shorrock, the CIA and other intelligence agencies now have more contractors working for them than they do spies of their own. Often former staff hired back at double or triple their former government salaries, these private contractors do everything from fighting in Afghanistan to interrogating prisoners, aiming spy satellites and supervising secret agents. Shorrock gives a comprehensive — at times eye-glazing — rundown of the players in the industry, and his book is valuable for its detailed panorama of 21st-century intelligence work. He uncovers serious abuses — contractor CACI International figured prominently in the Abu Ghraib outrages — and nagging concerns about corrupt ties between intelligence officials and private corporations, industry lobbying for a national surveillance state, the withering of the intelligence agencies' in-house capacities and the displacement of an ethos of public service by a profit motive. However, the bulk of the outsourcing Shorrock unearths is rather pedestrian, involving the management of mundane IT systems and various administrative services, and this expos insinuates more skullduggery than it demonstrates." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
Not long ago I had lunch with a recently retired senior CIA officer who worked himself into an expletive-laced rage over private contractors who had taken up seats in the agency's sanctum sanctorum, the clandestine services where the spies roam. Many of them, he said, had spent only a few years working for the agency. Then they performed Washington's version of alchemy, turning their... Washington Post Book Review (read the entire Washington Post review) top-secret security clearances into gold-plated jobs with the new breed of Beltway bandits, the intelligence contractors, at twice their old pay. Unlike in decades past, when firms such as Boeing and Lockheed provided spy planes and satellites and other hardware that the CIA could not possibly build itself, the new breed of contractor offers the CIA guys in trench coats and black ops gear, ready to do the work the agency traditionally has done. My CIA acquaintance, who retired as chief of a large European station, groused that making money had replaced duty, honor, country in the spy ranks — and along with it, accountability. "If they make a mistake," he asked, "do you think their company is going to admit it, if it threatens their contract?" Late last year, CIA Director Michael V. Hayden finally jammed a crowbar into the revolving doors, barring ex-employees from returning to work on their old projects for 18 months. As investigative reporter Tim Shorrock notes in this valuable (and angry) book, contractors have long had the run of the Pentagon and CIA, working hand in hand on projects ranging from reconnaisance satellites to Predator drones. But Shorrock persuasively shows that the business has changed dramatically in recent years, beginning even before the Sept. 11 attacks set off a homeland security gold rush. Today, intelligence contracting is a $45 billion-a-year industry, he says, chewing up three-quarters of the estimated $60 billion intelligence budget. It is no longer limited mainly to providing hardware; its reach now extends from top to bottom, from data-mining contractors who sift the Internet for terrorist activity to spy handlers, regional intelligence analysts and ex-special operations troops who run paramilitary operations. Cold War-era hardware, such as the U-2 spy plane, unquestionably made us safer. Has outsourcing made us safer in an age of non-state terrorism? Shorrock does not think so. As the U.S. occupation of Iraq was tanking in 2006, he writes, intelligence contractors gathered "over sushi and Chinese hors d'oeuvres ... sipping cognac" at a conference at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Washington, where they gloated over their business fortunes. "The industry's on a roll," one investment adviser told him, even if "the war on terror" isn't. The new buzz phrase, according to Shorrock, is "net centric warfare," a contractor-supplied technology that pushes information out "to the soldier at the tip of the spear," allowing him "to download data, imagery, and intelligence from computer bases located in nearby command posts or from spy planes flying overhead." Net centric warfare "is right in the sweet spot we provide for our customers," Shorrock quotes Robert Coleman, president of ManTech International, a top intelligence contractor, telling investors at the Mandarin Oriental. The event's keynote speaker was former CIA Director George Tenet, who within three months of his speech "would join, either as a director or an adviser, four companies that were directly involved with the high-tech military strategies he was endorsing," Shorrock writes. This is a movie version of Washington, of course, with black-hat war profiteers right out of "Catch-22"'s M & M Enterprises. Beyond the caricatures is a world in which contractors necessarily fill gaps in U.S. intelligence capabilities and provide valuable new technology. Yes, they're turning a profit along the way, but is that inherently evil, as Shorrock suggests? His book would have benefited mightily from interviews with some of the officials he lampoons. But one-sided though it is, it contains some important, timely truths about the influx of private entrepreneurs into America's spy agencies. Shorrock — a frequent contributor to such liberal muckraking magazines as Mother Jones, the Nation and the Progressive — dates the beginning of the intelligence "outsourcing boom" to the Carter and Reagan years, when cutting the federal payroll became a Washington mantra. But it was during the Clinton administration that the privatization of intelligence went on steroids, abetted by industry-dominated study commissions championed by Vice President Al Gore and Defense Secretary William Cohen. Oh, the savings, purred the representatives of Boeing, Lockheed Martin, L-3 Communications and other contracting giants on the board of the National Defense Panel, which recommended a vast privatization of national security activities. More than 30,000 government jobs, it estimated, could be cut. "A revolution in business affairs," Gore and Cohen said in a joint statement. "A corporate vision for the Defense Department," said Cohen, more precisely. The revolution was accompanied by the collapse of the Soviet Union, which was to provide a "peace dividend" through reductions in national security spending. The soft part of the budget, as always, was personnel. R. James Woolsey, faced with cuts as Bill Clinton's CIA director in 1993, slashed the number of large CIA stations by more than 60 percent and of case officers working overseas by more than 30 percent, Shorrock reports. The spies were out in the cold. Yet Woolsey was "ferocious" in defending the intelligence community's technical budget, according to "Spies for Hire:" "He fought vigorously to increase spending on expensive high-technology programs — precisely the vehicles that were funding the great leaps being made at the time by Titan, Martin Marietta, and other companies he advised before going to the CIA." That's a nasty swipe. Is Shorrock suggesting that Woolsey fired spies to make a buck for his pals? Alas, Woolsey doesn't get space to defend himself. In any event, as has been fully reported elsewhere, the CIA was sadly lacking HUMINT — spy handlers collecting human intelligence — when al-Qaeda's storm hit landfall in New York and Washington. So the old boys who had been cut from the rolls, or had retired, saw an opportunity. One of them was Richard "Hollis" Helms, a 30-year CIA veteran who retired in 1999. "In the months after the 9/11 attacks, he began taking notice of the many retired intelligence officers who were being hired by defense contractors," Shorrock writes. He "seized the moment" and created Abraxas, which quickly grew into a company with $65 million in revenues and more than 200 former intelligence officers on its payroll, "the largest aggregate of analytical counter-terrorism capabilities outside of the U.S. government." Would the United States be better off if those operatives were working as CIA employees, reporting directly to agency supervisors rather than to private bosses whose loyalty to the company's bottom line may trump the nation's national security? After reading Shorrock's strenuous indictment, you will wonder. Jeff Stein is the national security editor and SpyTalk columnist for Congressional Quarterly.

While the nation's eyes are affixed firmly on the future tax implications of the fiscal cliff negotiations, few people realize that they stand to pay larger tax bills in 2012 courtesy of a little something Congress could have — and should have – taken care of long ago: the exemption to the alternative minimum tax (AMT). As a reminder, the AMT is a parallel tax system that was originally designed in 1969 to guarantee that 155 wealthy, enterprising taxpayers would pay some amount of federal income tax. But like the pet alligator that quickly outgrows the family stupid enough to own it, today the AMT threatens to devour us all.
