TCOM Scholarships & Awards
Weldon Eugene Bond, Jr. D.O. Memorial Scholarship: Weldon Eugene Bond, Jr. D.O. was proud to be the first graduate to walk the stage in the first class of Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine in 1974. Accomplishments included being a multi board certified family and hospital physician for over 30 years, proud to be on the Clinical Faculty of The University of North Texas Health Science Center-Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine in Fort Worth, Texas as both Associate and Assistant Clinical Professor in the Department of Family Medicine as well as serving on the Admissions/Interview Committee for prospective medical students. He was past President of the Alumni Association of the medical school at UNTHSC/TCOM at Fort Worth. This scholarship is to honor the memory of Dr. Bond and to assist in supporting an upper classman interested in pursuing Family Practice.
A.E. Brooks Scholarship: The M.S. Doss Foundation established the A.E. Brooks Endowed Scholarship to perpetuate and advance the osteopathic philosophy and practice of health care in the State of Texas, especially in the focus of rural medicine. This scholarship is a tribute to Mr. A.E. Brooks for his many years as a friend, confidant, and legal advisor to Mr. and Mrs. Doss. For their dedication, this scholarship will assist 1st or 2nd year TCOM students
The Larry L. Bunnell, D.O. Scholarship: Dr. Bunnell was the first full time chair of the Department of Family Practice at TCOM. He establishes this scholarship as a way of paying back TCOM and the Osteopathic Profession for honors, a career, and the opportunities that have been provided him and his family. This scholarship supports 4th year TCOM students with an interest in a career in Family Medicine and Osteopathic Concepts, Practice, and Manual Skills.
Dr. Bunnell shared, "I was the first full time chair of the Department of Family Practice at the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine. Prior to moving to Texas I had been chair of the Dept. of Family Medicine at Michigan State University, College of Osteopathic Medicine and prior to that I was in private practice in Ohio. I was at TCOM for 13 years. When I left the Department, they established the Larry L. Bunnell, D.O. award to the outstanding student in Family Practice in the graduating class. At first Pfizer Pharmaceutical Company funded it and later either the Department or I have funded the award. I am trying to give sufficient funds so as the interest or earnings can fund this award on annual basis.
Next, I am establishing a fund on my demise that could create a fund again on interest and earnings to give a scholarship to a deserving student in year two or three. The scholarship criteria would be established by the Department of Family Practice. I would want this scholarship in memory of my family. My wife passed away on Dec. 1, 2006. My son is a graduate of TCOM and practices in Arlington, Texas and my daughter is a professor at University of Central Florida in the Finance Department. The years in Texas were memorable for our family and this scholarship would continue emphasis on Family Practice in memory of our Family. Funding these two projects is my way of paying back TCOM and the Osteopathic Profession for honors, a career, and opportunities afforded my son and me by giving those who follow a needed incentive to complete their training.
The MaKasha Colonvega Memorial Scholarship: Representatives from the TCOM Class of 2009 established this scholarship to honor and celebrate the life of beloved classmate, MaKasha (Kasha) Colonvega. They shared, "We all strive to find those things in life that empower us to reach our goals. MaKasha (Kasha) Colonvega found her empowerment through education. Dr. Colonvega lost her life tragically on December 7, 2009, just one semester short of graduating from the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine. The MaKasha Colonvega Memorial Scholarship was created to celebrate her memory and her spirit.
Kasha was born in Arkansas and lived there until the age of six when she moved with her mother to Seattle, Washington. Kasha graduated from high school in Seattle and went on to achieve her Bachelors of Science Degree from the University of Alaska-Anchorage. Her insatiable hunger for more lead her to the Parker College of Chiropractic in Dallas where she completed her chiropractic curriculum and became a doctor of chiropractic in 2004.
Yearning for more, Kasha continued to work as a research professor at Parker College, becoming well-published in both Chiropractic and Osteopathy and the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics. On top of this, Kasha raised her twins while her husband was serving on active duty in the military. Still not satisfied, Kasha made the decision to attend the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine at the University of North Texas Health Science Center to pursue her doctor of osteopathic medicine degree. As a participant in the military's Health Professions Scholarship Program, Kasha also served as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army throughout her enrollment in medical school. Kasha excelled in her studies and her home life despite her husband once again being called to active duty in the Army while she was in medical school.
Kasha was an extraordinary person. What you or I may only dream of achieving became reality for Kasha in the thirty-four short years that she was on this earth. Those who knew Kasha admired her vivacious spirit and humble attitude towards others. Despite the many tasks her daily schedule entailed, Kasha would never turn away a fellow colleague in need. While Kasha excelled throughout the first two years of didactics and secured a spot in the top 5% of her class, she always made time for other people. In the last stretch of clinical rotations, Kasha continued to shine by participating in research work in dermatology at the Brooke Army Medical Center, where she hoped to become a resident in training. That research work was ultimately accepted for publication in late 2008. Kasha did all of this—helping others, furthering her education and career, and continuing to be the primary caregiver for her children—while still advocating for her patients.
To her classmates, Kasha will always be remembered as someone who embodied the virtues of service to others, perseverance and hard work, humility, and infectious curiosity. To her family, Kasha was the epitome of unconditional love. Kasha leaves behind her two children and her mother, stepfather and sister as well as many friends and colleagues who love and admire her. She also leaves behind a legacy of dedication to education and a spirit that reminds us that anything is possible."
D.O. /Ph.D. Student scholarship: The DO/PhD Medical Scientist Training Program is offered in conjunction with UNT Health Science Center's Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences. Students may choose to conduct research in a wide range of basic science disciplines to complement their medical interests, including cell biology and genetics, biochemistry and molecular biology, microbiology and immunology, pharmacology and neuroscience, and physiology.
Dallas Southwest Osteopathic Physicians, Inc. Joseph L. LaManna D.O. Scholarship: This scholarship was established by the Dallas Southwest Osteopathic Physicians, Inc. to honor Dr. Joseph L. LaManna, D.O. and to support TCOM students who have demonstrated personal integrity, leadership potential, and their dedication and commitment to community service. Dr. LaManna received a Bachelor of Science Degree with majors in Biology and Chemistry from St. Peter's College in Jersey City in 1943. From 1943 to 1946, he served in the Army Special Training Program. In 1950, he graduated from Des Moines College of Osteopathic Medicine and interned at lakeside Hospital in Kansas City. In 1951, he opened his office in Dallas. Dr. LaManna began family practice in the Oak Cliff section of Dallas the very first day he arrived in 1951 and in January 2001, he announced his retirement after fifty years of service. During those years he touched thousands of lives, including the hundreds of young physicians he mentored and counseled. The Board of the Trustees of Dallas Southwest Osteopathic Physicians, Inc. describes him as "an exemplary to all who serve the community and a paragon to all osteopathic physicians."
The Dunlap Family Scholarship: Donald C. Dunlap, D.O., chose to dedicate his life's work to osteopathic medicine because it combines creativity, inventiveness, and the art of health. He has written numerous letters of recommendations for students and graduates of the UNT Health Science Center. To demonstrate his pride and support for the unique position of the Health Science Center in the community and as the pinnacle of training in the osteopathic profession, he established this scholarship fund. The Dunlap Family Scholarship will support and provide assistant to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd year TCOM students who have demonstrated their dedication and commitment to community service.
John F. Gaugl Memorial Fund: Dr. John F. Gaugl founded the TCOM's Department of Integrative Physiology and Anatomy in 1971. In his final lecture to medical students before his passing, he revealed that he had seen many doctors and specialists who misdiagnosed his illness. With amazing insight, he shared this story. "If you close your eyes and listen, you will hear a horse running across a field. You know the sound of a horse. You hear it run, trot, and then gallop. You feel confident it is a horse. However, in some cases when you open your eyes, you realize it is a zebra. As a physician, you will see general signs and symptoms all seeming to point to a specific disease. Sometimes, however, these generalizations are inaccurate. We must open our eyes to each and every possibility because there are times we will hear a horse coming, yet if we open our eyes and look a little closer, we might see a zebra instead." Dr. Gaugl's poignant story about his breast cancer provides an invaluable reminder. We need to keep our eyes and ears open to "the presence of zebras" as we diagnose and treat our patients. Our failure to do so can literally be a matter of life and death. John Gaugl, Ph.D. 1937-1997
Elizabeth Reeves Henning Scholarship: This scholarship is made possible by a trust fund in honor of Elizabeth Reeves Henning and established from an estate fund designed to assist a 3rd or 4th year TCOM student.
The Frederick L. Hill Scholarship for Excellence in Primary Care in Texas: This scholarship was established by the generosity of Dr. Rick Hill and his wife Cindy.
Published in the UNTHSC magazine:
A Full Ride:
Dr. Rick and Cindy Hill Rick Hill, DO ('78), will be sending future generations of Texas family physicians to medical school. And he's getting them there with some really fast cars.
The cars are part of a $2.1 million estate gift to the Health Science Center, its largest individual philanthropic gift to date. But the vehicles represent more than pistons and gasoline – they include a bit of Hill himself.
Calling him a "car guy" is an understatement. Hill is a racecar driver, a mechanic, a collector and a lifelong appreciator of the automobile. He likes cars with "soul" – the kind that he couldn't afford when he was younger. His garage holds more than a dozen unique cars – from a 1931 Ford Model A to a 2005 Ford GT, also known as the GT40 – and just as many motorcycles.
But he didn't always have that many keys on his ring. He set aside his passion for cars and motorcycle racing when he was accepted to the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine (TCOM) in 1974 – back when the old bowling alley on Camp Bowie Boulevard served as a classroom and a mobile home served as the student center. For Hill, going to TCOM was the opportunity of a lifetime, but it was also a huge financial challenge. He put his heart and soul into medical school, and he got some help along the way. "During my second year, the school became state supported and the costs came way down so a guy like me could afford to go, and that was huge," Hill said. "And if it hadn't been for the student loan program, I wouldn't be here doing this now."
Since his graduation in 1978, he's made a habit of giving back. For the past 30 years he has served the community of Humble, Texas, as a family physician. He's treated generations of families – sometimes even if they couldn't pay for his services – and they have repaid him with their loyalty. "We went through the early '80s when oil busted in Houston, "Hill said. "People lost their insurance and didn't have anything. But, we made it work. All those people kept coming even when times improved, and now I've got more work than I can do."
Through the decades he has learned first-hand what a family doctor means to a community. Now he wants to help supply communities across Texas with good family doctors, so he's giving the ultimate gift to make that happen: he's donating assets including his beloved car collection. Hill and his wife, Cindy, are giving this largest-ever single gift to provide scholarships for TCOM students studying to be primary care physicians in Texas. When the donation is fully endowed, it will support TCOM students for years to come, but the Hills are not waiting – they will also make a donation to award the first scholarship this year. With this and other annual gifts, Hill will honor those who helped him along the way. The first scholarship will honor TCOM's first dean, the late Henry Hardt, who was instrumental in Hill's acceptance to medical school.
It's the gift of a lifetime, but Hill said the decision was easy. "If we fund education for family doctors, they will be able to serve a community in Texas," he said. "There will be a benefit to a great number of people. I want to give something back to the people of Texas. I want to give them family doctors.
Drs. W.R. & Constance Jenkins Scholarship: W.R. & Constance Jenkins are both osteopathic physicians who graduated from Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine in the early 1950's. Dr. W.R. Jenkins began his career with TCOM in 1971 as an instructor in the Department of Surgery. In 1978, he was appointed Chair of the Department of Surgery and became a full time faculty member. He served as Associate Dean for graduate medical education and continuing medical education from 1987 until 1991. Dr. Jenkins was awarded the rank of Professor Emeritus upon his retirement. Dr. Constance Jenkins joined TCOM in 1978 as an Associate Professor and Director of TCOM's Central Family Practice Clinic. Dr. Jenkins not only served as President of the Texas Society of the American College of General Practitioners in Osteopathic Medicine and Surgery but also was named "General Practitioner of the Year" in 1992. After retirement in 1991, they received the TCOM Founder's Medal. This scholarship was established to assist TCOM 3rd year students who desire to pursue a career in primary care.
Elizabeth Pelsma Levy, DO Awards: This fund was established in 1985 by Dr. Elizabeth P. Levy, DO and provides two awards. The first award is for a graduating senior who plans to practice osteopathic medicine in rural areas. The second award is for a TCOM graduate who has met specific criteria for clinical rotation, training, and has 1 year of practice in a rural community.
Jeremiah G. Mills 1st, 2nd, and 3rd year Rural Medicine Scholarships: The Jeremiah G. Mills Memorial Scholarship fund, through private donations of family and friends, honors the memory of Jeremiah Garrett Mills who courageously fought Ewing's Sarcoma for seven years. Jeremiah lost his battle on October 25, 2001 at the young age of 21 years. He was the son of Dr. John G. Mills, Associate Professor in the Surgery Department at UNTHSC and stepson of Kaylene Mills. The purpose of this scholarship fund is to support and provide scholarships for TCOM students who have demonstrated their interest in rural medicine as a field of specialization and who meet the scholastic and special criteria of the scholarship.
MSGA Above and Beyond Scholarship: The Medical Student Government Association is establishing the "MSGA Above and Beyond Scholarship" to honor students who work hard in the classroom while maintaining a strong record of service. MSGA leadership recognizes the time-commitment and diligence required to succeed academically in medical school. It also recognizes that despite this load TCOM is filled with students who commit additional time to serve their peers and neighbors within the community. These driven individuals embody a passion for service which inspires those around them and their sacrifices have helped the University of North Texas-Health Science Center grow from a place of higher education into a pillar of the surrounding community. The intent of the "MSGA Above and Beyond Scholarship" is to recognize and encourage these outstanding students for a job well done. It is the vision of the MSGA that honoring these scholars for their contributions will reaffirm their commitment to service and support their efforts to make this university, and the surrounding community, better places to work and live. The scholarship's initial donations were from proceeds of the 2013 "Tee-off FORE TCOM" golf tournament.
D.M. Richards Endowed Scholarship: The Medical Student Government Association (MSGA) of TCOM created this scholarship to honor David M. Richards, D.O. upon his retirement for his extraordinary legacy of service. Dr. Richards became TCOM's Associate Dean for Academic Affairs in 1981 and was named president of the University of North Texas Health Science Center when the Texas Legislature established it in 1993. Under his watch, he helped to establish the Academic Health Science Center, the Public Health, and Physician Assistant Program. The Health Science Center established affiliations with hospitals around the state through Dr. Richards' vision and initiative, as TCOM took the lead in breaking down both real and perceived barriers between the D.O. and M.D. professions. This scholarship provides for 2nd TCOM students who have demonstrated personal integrity, leadership potential, and their dedication to community service and to their medical school.
James O. Royder, D.O. FAAO Scholarship: James O Royder, D.O, FAAO, established this scholarship in honor and support of advancing the osteopathic philosophy and practice of health care in the state of Texas for deserving students at TCOM. Dr. Royder began his distinguished career after graduating from the Kansas City College of Osteopathic Medicine. In 1966, he opened an obstetrics/gynecology practice. Dr. Royder's compassion and understanding of pain grew following a serious plane crash while on a medical mission's trip to Mexico. He decided to change from OB/GYN to general practice and taught manipulative medicine for 5 years at TCOM. In 1981, after he had served with the Naval Reserves for several years, Dr. Royder enlisted for active duty and served 11 years in the Navy. He established the Navy's first comprehensive pain treatment center in the Philippines during his service, was a regimented surgeon with the Marines, then worked in a navy fleet hospital in the Persian Gulf War. This scholarship supports 2nd year osteopathic medical students who have exhibited the basis of awareness and understanding of professional and social roles of osteopathic medicine in American Health Care.
Dr. C.W. & J. Spellman Endowed Scholarship: Craig Spellman, Ph.D., D.O. is a 1991 TCOM graduate and was the first UNT Health Science Center graduate to establish a student scholarship fund in tribute to a spouse. His wife of 25 years, Joanie Spellman, was a senior scientist and head technical writer for Alcon laboratories until she passed away in December 2000. Dr. Spellman shared, "Education was high on Joanie's list. Her education. My education. Our sons' education. Our students' education. Rewarding and encouraging those who love learning is a perfect way to honor her memory." This scholarship will provide support a 2nd year TCOM student with a dedication to Osteopathic practices.
Wayne & Norma Lee Stockseth Scholarship: Wayne Stockseth, President of Parts Distributing Company, is an entrepreneur and investor. He and his wife, Norma Lee, became involved in propagating the field of osteopathic medicine when an osteopathic physician living in their neighborhood asked for support in the creation of an osteopathic medical school.

TCOM Memorial Scholarship: The TCOM Memorial Scholarship Fund, created in 1982, originated as a reward for information about the death of TCOM Student Doctor Kathryn Munroe, age 23. In 1986, the fund converted to a scholarship in memory of all former TCOM students who have passed away. The fund has since grown by external donations. In April 2007, a DNA match by a Fort Worth Police Detective in the Cold Case Unit linked a prison inmate in Florida to the death of Kathryn Munroe.

Dr. Gil B. Scarnati Memorial Scholarship: On osteopathic medicine and the practice he had to give up: "Osteopathic medicine is an approach and philosophy of medicine which involves both the art and science of medicine. Yet further, it emphasizes treating the patient as a whole, entire human being, rather than a case, disorder or disease. It emphasizes the importance of the interaction and relationship of all aspects of the person as patient, body, mind and spirit. "It is an endeavor in wholeness, of completeness, and one that places just as great an emphasis upon medical expertise as it does upon understanding, empathy and the humane. "I loved teaching my patients and answering their questions. Patients came in sick and anxious, and often I was able to allay their fears and anxieties, and to provide comfort, simply by listening and truly communicating with them. Although many physicians believe this humanistic way of medical practice has become impracticable and unrealistic, it is amazing how significant and productive a 15-minute patient visit can be. "In retrospect, I think that which amazed me the most was the impact one can have on someone else's life." ~Gil Scarnati, DO

And Paula wants to extend his legacy by providing a scholarship for students entering the new UNT System College of Pharmacy set to open in 2013. "This is the perfect way to honor him," Perrone said. "He was thankful to be alive, and he didn't renege on his promise. He did more than fill people's prescriptions – he would talk to them. He had the gift of being able to relate to and comfort people." And he had a zest for life. He supported himself while attending pharmacy school through competitive bull riding, and he loved practical jokes. "Dad never stood still," Perrone said. "He believed that scholastics do matter, and he never stopped learning. He believed that learning is a continuum of life." ~excerpt from the 2012 North Texas Health & Science magazine

When it comes to Docea Power, there's no scoop. There's no news at all. Except of course that they've been bought by Intel, which in itself is pretty big news for any company. Except apparently Docea. There was/is no press release and was/is no access to details on the deal. Nothing.
There is proof, however, that the acquisition took place. Right on the front of the Docea website. But that's it.
Having interviewed the brothers who founded Docea, Ghislain and Sylvain Kaiser, multiple times over the years – at DATE in Europe and at various conferences here in the U.S. — I certainly hoped to know more, and I tried. But their people — the ones who reached out to journalists in June asking for meetings with the company at DAC, back when Docea still existed — were candid: "There is no press release available. And there will be no talk with Docea founders"
And that's it. Except for this …
Lucky Intel!

Robin and all other Kaspersky users I would be grateful for help and or suggestions as very little is forthcoming from Kaspersky themselves.
Had successfully been Kaspersky Personal Pro (KPP) 4.5 and decided to upgrade to KPP 5 . I stupidly installed on top of 4.5 and the install failed. Next problem couldn't get rid of the files - wouldn't iuninstall either using Windows add/remove or KPP unistall - manually removed everything that I could find on drives and in registry..........Now can't reinstall KPP4.5 it simply produces a report folder and nothing else. KPP 5 keeps telling me that it has discivered another version of KPP and as the two cannot run together the install of KPP 5 cancels.
I have fired emals at Kaspersky without success thus far and I am led to believe that Tech Support can provide a utility that will rip out KPP...........without their help I don't have any real AV protection.
I have as a temporary measure downloaded and installed the trial version F-Prot - fully working 30 day trial.
Upshot - I would be grateful for ideas to solve KPP problem and equally a bit of guidance, if anyone knows there is a specific setup required within Poco to ensure that F-Prot to scans email.

In this paper, we examine Handgun Control Inc. and the National Rifle Association's contributions to mobilizations, for and against gun control. As with any social and political movement, we find these two opposing networks, the proponents of gun control and the anti-gun control groups, utilizing each other's frames, actions and policies as a way of countering the opposition and advancing their own agendas.

The research shows that vegetation height differentially affects surface temperature at the residential parcel-level. Vegetation of 5m-10m height is correlated to mitigation of extreme temperatures, lowering daytime surface temperatures and raising nighttime surface temperatures. Vegetation of 1.5m-5m height lowered daytime surface temperatures to a lesser magnitude than vegetation of taller height. Results imply that planners and landscape designers should consider strategically arranging buildings and vegetation to maximize shading and cooling benefit.

Ouidad Botanical Boost
Q: I know you're not supposed to shampoo daily but then how do you restyle your hair the next day with all the leftover product? Like when I use products to style it curly then the next day I want to style it curly again but it looks bad if I wash two days in a row?
Ouidad: First, you want to make sure your styling products are water-soluble, which allows you to be able to just wet and condition the next day. Also before re-doing your hair entirely, you can simply refresh your curls in the morning with a spray leave- in conditioner like Botanical Boost, which will revive your style.

By Kelli B. Grant
Viewers aren't lacking for options when it comes to ways to watch movies or TV online. There's Amazon, Netflix, Hulu and iTunes, just to name a few.
This week, M-Go joined the fray in beta tests, with 6,000 movies and TV shows streamable to Chrome and Safari browsers. It's available through an app to select Samsung tablets running Android, and soon, it'll be on a handful of app-enabled TVs from Vizio. Other partnerships are also in the works, says a spokesman. "It's hard to say what this could potentially turn into," says Dan Rayburn, principal analyst for Frost & Sullivan's digital media practice. "Is there enough room in the market for another player like Netflix? No." Consumers are looking for a wide variety of content and device accessibility, which right now, M-Go doesn't have. (In comparison, Amazon claims more than 33,000 streaming titles. Netflix doesn't release the number of streaming titles it offers, but tracking site InstantWatcher.com currently puts it at a little more than 14,000.)
But then, it all depends on what you want to watch. An M-Go spokesman says the company can compete with Netflix. It has partnerships with a number of big studios, including DreamWorks Animation, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, Twentieth Century Fox and Warner Bros. Titles are available the day they come out on DVD, whereas Netflix often has a several-week delay, he says. M-Go also has a unique feature the company hopes will make it consumers' first stop — if the site doesn't have the rights to stream a title, it will tell you where you can get it, negating the need to try site after site. "We really want to make it very easy to find content," he says.

The aging and fading comedian Jim Carrey apparently wants to act out in real life his role in "Dumb and Dumber," with recent tweets attacking gun ownership. Says a person who has armed bodyguards. You'd think these Hollywood-Washington liberals wouldn't be completely tone-deaf to hypocrisy.
But this only compounds Carrey's perfidy. His public opposition to childhood vaccination, along with other worthless celebrities like Robert F. Kennedy Jr (would anyone care what this lightweight said if his name was Robert F. Smith?), is probably responsible for the unnecessary death and maiming of more children than guns. Why isn't Carrey referred to as a "vaccination denier"?
Anyway, our pal Remy has released a video response to Carrey that nails it:

Johnson & Johnson's Prostate Drug Fails Clinical Trial
In order to succeed, the AA-302 trial had to increase progression-free survival (or PFS) and overall survival. Just one or the other wasn't enough.
Well, the drug certainly has a benefit for patients. But the AA-302 trial was a failure. Don't take my word for it. Look up the presentations on the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) website (you may have to pay) and listen to Dr. Susan Halabi's discussion of the data. She called it a failure, too.
In order to succeed, the AA-302 trial had to increase progression-free survival (or PFS) and overall survival. Just one or the other wasn't enough. Those increases had to be statistically significant. Johnson & Johnson and the press have focused on PFS, as that endpoint was positive.
Overall survival was not statistically significant (p=0.0097 versus required p=0.0008). I freely acknowledge this is splitting statistical hairs. But what the FDA's oncology division does best is split hairs. Provenge demonstrated a survival advantage in 2007 and an advisory panel said it should be approved. The FDA said the survival advantage wasn't the primary endpoint and turned it down. Roche-Genentech (RHHBY) provided great T-DM1 data in third-line breast cancer, but the FDA turned them down because the patients hadn't received a chemotherapy that nobody uses at that disease stage. Amgen (AMGN) had a PFS benefit in breast cancer, but the FDA turned them down because there was no survival advantage and there were side effects.
Splitting hairs is what the FDA does, and there are more hairs to split here then just the survival statistics. This AA-302 trial was downright strange.
Most patients were off drug by 13.8 months into the trial. Yet the survival curves don't separate until nearly 18 months into the trial. That's pretty much unprecedented in this disease stage. In the Provenge IMPACT trial, the curves separate after six months. Patients in the docetaxel chemotherapy trial (TAX-327) who had minimally symptomatic disease also saw their curves separate after about six months. The survival curves in the post-chemotherapy "AA-301" trial of Zytiga separated inside three months.
It takes 18 months for the Zytiga curves to separate. By that time, 20% of the men in the trial were dead. Translated, this means 20% of the men in the Zytiga trial were dead before the drug ever had a chance to improve their survival. Contrast this to about 5% of the men in the Provenge trial and 3-5% of the men in the docetaxel trial.
To be sure, Zytiga has some other benefits. It reduces PSA for most patients, helps with pain in some patients, and shrinks tumors in a minority of patients. But for this disease stage, the FDA's advisory panels have clearly said overall survival is necessary for approval.
Zytiga also isn't cheap. Most patients in the trial received 15 cycles of drug. At $5,495/cycle that's $82,425 (not including the cost of prednisone and all the testing necessary to avoid serious side effects). That $82,425 is spent and gone five months before you ever see any survival benefit and 20% of patients will spend that and see NO survival benefit.
When Johnson & Johnson unblinded the trial in March, it allowed patients on the control arm to receive Zytiga. This will make it more difficult to demonstrate a survival benefit. It won't be impossible, as Provenge proved with 65% of its control arm receiving a modestly active version of Provenge. But it is not a slam dunk. Dr. Halabi thinks the trial will still be statistically significant at the final analysis and, frankly, so do I.
But that still leaves this weird survival curve and the 18-month delay before any survival benefit is seen.
Notably, Johnson & Johnson plans to file for approval in the mCRPC, pre-chemo indication in the next couple of months. The FDA won't have final survival data when it is making its initial decision. The FDA will only have a failed trial with overall survival still not statistically significant.
I fully expect the FDA will ask an advisory panel for help. Key opinion leaders in the prostate cancer oncology space are clearly not happy with Johnson & Johnson for unblinding this trial early. As noted by Dr. Halabi in her presentation, Johnson & Johnson didn't really need to wait much longer and they would have had a statistically-significant survival advantage.
That FDA panel ought to be quite a show.

Got home from the summer Zombie/Slayer tour to a huge pile of mail, much of it for Neil.
I, of course, had very little time to blog in Europe and even less on the Canadian/US run.
it was a beautiful summer, full of festival dates & new people...
my wallet was full of many monies & Zombie guitar picks...
I flew into LAX from Brussels at 10 pm on Monday night and Tuesday morning had me in a car service to meet Neil back at LAX at 10 am. Not much decompression time. Neil was coming off his AMERICAN GODS tour and he was a sight for sore eyes. This boss of mine has been on a health kick and he looked amazing. We had only to remove the beard, and *wolf whistle...
The mails brought a Dr. Who gift from the BBC:
and this game from Eloy & Third Eye Games in Fla:
Valerie sent in her gorgeous FairyTaleTrilogy as a thank-you to Neil who twittered her New York Times piece:
this watercolor came from Kathryn in New Hampshire, a certain treasure:
Tony from the Southside Aces in Minn. sent in this jazz CD:
scary things also come out of these boxes...
Matt from Oakland parcelled off this "ravenous rabbit",
a member of the Gashly Crumb Tentacles Monster Adoption Society, you can find more about them HERE.
Neil's appearances in town included a turn on the Craig Ferguson show...
(they were adorable together...)
and Patton Oswalt and miss Zelda Williams welcomed him to the Saban Theatre:
the event was put on by Tyson and the Rare Bird Lit crew...
just look at these tickets!
Boss signed all these books and many more:
next morning found us over at the Nerdist podcast, where I had to drag him out of the almost-unbreakable bond that formed on air.
why did i drag him out? to get him to his NPR interview on time:
Neil draws on their hallowed walls:
then we went to tape his voice-over work for THE PRICE over at the luscious Green Street Studios run by cool cat Rob King.
Christopher finally meets Neil this LA visit...
For director Christopher Salmon's (way more complete) blog on it, click here.
meanwhile @ Neverwear, we got the Allan Amato posters in!!
a limited edition 18" x 24" poster of our Dream King, mister Neil Gaiman.
we only have 500 of these...
Photograph by ALLAN AMATO, premiere photographer to the stars, this is the very same photo that graces the slip cover of the new edition of AMERICAN GODS. I love this photo of Neil, looking straight out of Deadwood or some other antique past...he will watch me from my wall...
and perhaps murmur writing or cooking advice in my ear while I sleep...
each poster is hand-stamped with the official Neverwear seal.
It will arrive to your shipping address cloaked in magic and heavy on the intrigue.
People will want to talk to you.....
here's Drew rolling a batch of them to go out:
here is one way to get to the posters, scan it via bar-code reader.
that advanced techno-devil Neil dared me to get one
(ok, actually Husband got the bar-code generator, but my new phone can actually read!:

Microgrid deployments, which can alleviate strain on the power supply during disasters, are poised for growth, says report.
A smarter electric infrastructure is being imagined for the nation. One key technology supporting a smarter electric grid is the microgrid, which is a localized version of the electric grid which can detach from primary electric systems. Microgrids provide facilities with the ability to sustain energy independent of the larger electrical grid. According to the report "Power Systems of the Future: Making the Case for Energy Storage, Distributed Generation and Microgrids," microgrid deployments will grow in the next five years. The report discusses the benefits of microgrids, industries where deployments are poised for growth, as well as major factors that contribute to the development of a smart grid.
Conducted in November by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and research firm Zpryme, the study surveyed nearly 500 smart grid executives on energy storage, distributed generations and microgrids. The full report can be downloaded here (registration required). Here are some of the report's highlights.

Two Groups Seek to Restore Federal Wolf Protections
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Two national groups have filed notice with the federal government that they intend to sue to restore wolves in the western Great Lakes region to the endangered list.
The Humane Society of the United States and The Fund for Animals filed the 60-day notice with the Fish and Wildlife Service Monday, as required under the Endangered Species Act. If the agency doesn't restore federal protections to wolves in Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan during that period, they'll ask a court to do it.
Monday marked the opening day of Wisconsin's first wolf hunting season since management of the region's wolf populations returned to the states. Minnesota's season is set to open Nov. 3.
The groups are asking the two states to postpone their wolf seasons until the federal case is resolved.

We're not even talking crapware here. These are apps that a tablet user would expect. Email, maps, music, weather apps etc.
Microsoft is getting sued for adding value to its tablet. They truly cannot win. Does he know that unlike IOS, pre-installed apps can be uninstalled?
I'm stoked that Mike featured my video here. Thanks a mil! I'm an avid reader although I don't comment much. I've learned a lot here. Reading this blog led me to James Boyle's book "The Public Domain." which inspired this.(You're absolutely right Mike, Chapter 6)
@eldavojohn, Point taken re: the editing. It's easy to get carried away with Sony Vegas' transition effects. The interview with Nile Rodgers was worth noting, as Mike correctly pointed out, he described his music as sacred when talking about how Rappers Delight sampled it without permission. Later he admits that he took lyrics almost verbatim from Milton Adger's song.
@Huph, I actually like Good Times better. (: Rapper's Delight also took lyrics from a widely known rapper (at the time) Grandmaster Caz. Copyright failed him in this instance.
@ltlw0lf, Thanks. I'm going to up my video editing skills for the next one.
Thanks again Mike!

I finished Owen's nursery before he was born but I didn't have time to write this post! So here are a whole bunch of pictures of his nursery taken before he was born. Now the room is a lot more lived in and a little messier but so far I think Owen loves it!
Here is a reminder of what it looked like right after we moved in:
Fairy stickers on the wall with green and purple paint. Awesome.
And here it is now! Dan was amazing and added the built in bookshelves as well as all the board and batten. I painted my blanket chest that I built in high school (Dan has one as well!).
My mom bought us the amazing glider and we love it. It is so so comfortable and I have already put it to good use in the past few weeks with Owen!
I made the artwork above the dresser myself. I copied some things I have seen online but I really love it.
I bought the dresser on KSL and re-finished it. My mother in law sewed the changing pad cover for us. We have since moved the blue laundry basket into the closet and added a diaper genie to the other side of the dresser.
The cute polka dot knobs are from Hobby Lobby and the silver pulls are from Lowes.
Here is the inside of his dresser with all his clothes ready for him! We have SO MANY clothes, I can't even believe it. I only put 0-6 months in the drawers and closet and they are totally full.
We are actually doing cloth diapers (I know, just when you thought I couldn't get any more granola…) and we started last week and so far it is going really well! I may do a post on that at some point. But we are still using disposable sometimes so they are ready to go in his dresser.
I love all the awesome books we have so far and I can't wait to read them to Owen! I hope he gets my love of books and not his Dad's…
I made the animal artwork with my Silhouette.
My mom and sister have bought a bunch of adorable wooden toys that I absolutely LOVE! My mom gave Owen a sweet wooden train set for Christmas that I didn't have on the bookshelves yet, but it's so cute!
The awesome quilt was made by Dan's cousin, Vienna and I absolutely adore it!
We love Owen's room and I'm so grateful that Dan put up with my crazy ideas and that he worked so hard to make it look awesome! Owen loves it too and he has been sleeping in his crib for about a week now and he has been doing great. We put a lot of work into this room and we love it!

In May of this year, New Jersey joined the growing number of states to enact paid sick leave laws. The New Jersey Paid Sick Leave Act is currently in effect and below you will find certain information that is important for all New Jersey employers to understand.
Who Does it Affect?
The Act applies to New Jersey employers of all sizes, including businesses that are based elsewhere but have employees located in New Jersey. While several New Jersey municipalities already had paid sick leave ordinances, this new state law preempts them, meaning they no longer apply and employers throughout the state are now subject to one consistent set of requirements.
The Act does not apply to a few narrow categories of employees: (1) construction industry employees working under collective bargaining agreements; (2) per diem health care employees; or (3) public employees who are already provided with sick leave with full pay pursuant to any other state law, rule, or regulation.

For the second installment of this PCstats guide, we're looking at something a little more permanent. We're going to take one of the most popular and easy to use free Linux distributions, SUSE Personal 9.1 and explore the process of installing Linux onto your hard drive as a full operating system. We'll look at how to configure your desktop using the KDE desktop manager, get a grasp on your personal files in the Linux file system and connect to the Internet for web browsing and email. We'll also teach you how to make Linux co-exist peacefully with your existing Windows installation, so you can use both. This particular version of Linux was chosen because its small footprint and easy to use configuration tools make it an excellent way to reduce the often-daunting learning curve that the Linux OS can present. We firmly believe that learning to use an operating system productively is the first and most important step in achieving full familiarity and expertise with that system.

Some Reasons for Your Complexion Being Extra Sensitive
Pink is better for snuggling up with, but hardly the color from irritation that you want for your skin.
As one prone to allergies, my complexion can be extra sensitive at times. Sometimes, a new product can cause redness, itchy skin, bumps or tightness. Other times, products that you have used regularly can suddenly cause a reaction. Therefore, if you have been having trouble with an extra sensitive complexion lately, let me pass on some tips as to the reason and what to look for.
Consider your cleansing routine first. Maybe you started a new cleanser or soap that left your face feeling tight and itchy. The reason could be that the product has a harsh oil stripping agent like cocamidopropyl betaine, which is commonly found in foaming cleansers. This particular ingredient for some people can cause the tiniest cracks that are hardly visible on the skin to allow irritants and bacteria easy passage.
Another trigger can be antiaging products, scrubs or peels. Perhaps, you didn?t experience any initial burning, stinging, redness, tightness or itchy skin. As I mentioned, those symptoms can happen at any time regardless of how many times that you successfully used the same product. However, the real problem can be overuse of those products in your attempt to force results. Read product directions and give them time to do their job to avoid this kind of irritation.
Sometimes, I find rotating antiaging products with powerful i...

"We were happy there. We could be happy again."
That was the hopeful pitch beleaguered ad executive Don Draper made to his wife, Megan, during the Season 6 finale of "Mad Men" as he campaigned for a move from New York to Southern California.
Don (Jon Hamm) was pretty much residing at rock bottom by that point. His marriage had turned sour. He had been caught by his daughter in an affair. He was burning bridges at work and struggling mightily to give up booze.
A fresh start was in order, and Don wanted it to happen in the place where he and Megan (Jessica Paré) first ignited their romance.
But as "Mad Men" returns for its two-part final season with a marvelous opener titled "Time Zones," you have to wonder: Can Don Draper ever really be happy? Or is total reinvention and redemption, at this point, beyond his grasp?
Matthew Weiner, the show's notoriously tight-lipped creator, assures us that nothing will come easily.
"People's lives being good is never good drama," he teases during a conference call with reporters. "So we're always looking for more problems for these people."
He's speaking not just of Don but the whole intriguingly flawed gang — Peggy (Elisabeth Moss), Roger (John Slattery), Pete (Vincent Kartheiser), Joan (Christina Hendricks) and the others. Weiner now has 14 episodes — split between now and next year — to wrap up their stories in a satisfying fashion. The climactic season, he says, will be devoted to exploring "the consequences in life" and the things you can and can't undo.
When we last saw Don, he had reneged on his cross-country plan, and Megan headed off to sunny Los Angeles on her own with the couple promising to try and make a bicoastal relationship work. As things resume, our leading man is racking up the frequent flier miles.
"Don is a different kind of person when he's in California," Weiner says. "It started off being the place where he could be himself, actually. So for me, that's always been a story of moving westward."
There figures to be a distinct Golden State vibe during the final flight of this moody masterpiece, which always has been New York-centric. Weiner says the shift gives him and his writers new tools to play with and allows them to tell the story of the country's fixation on the West during the late 1960s and early '70s.
"I wanted to show the rise of California in the cultural landscape of the United States," he says. "San Francisco, and then Los Angeles, become the predominant focus of commerce and culture, good or bad."
True to form, Weiner sent TV critics a letter pleading for discretion as we write about the one and only episode that AMC made available for review. In listing several plot points to avoid, including Don's employment status, he insisted that "secrecy is the currency of our drama."
OK, we get that and certainly don't want to spoil anyone's fun. What we can say about the opener is that it focuses largely on Don and Megan but finds time to hint at the possibility of tantalizing new directions for most of our key characters. In the process, the show reflects some power shifts in personal and professional relationships and finds fresh ways to subvert our expectations.
Also, there are some new characters that, again, the miserly Weiner doesn't want us to mention. And there are lots of not-so-groovy new fashions and a new guy named Nixon in the White House.
At least one thing hasn't changed: "Mad Men" can still keep us spellbound.
LINCOLN'S ENDURING WORDS: Next week, Ken Burns delivers another American history lesson, but not in his traditional manner. "The Address" (9 p.m. Tuesday, PBS) is an inspiring new documentary that tells the story of a tiny school in Putney, Vt., where the students each year are encouraged to memorize, practice and recite the Gettysburg Address.
The kids at the Greenwood School — boys ages 11-17 — all are dealing with a range of learning disabilities that make the assignment a major challenge.
"It's a minefield of terrors and anxieties for those boys," says Burns, who describes the film as cinema verite.
But once they master the two-minute speech Lincoln delivered at the consecration of the Soldiers' National Cemetery in Gettysburg, Pa., on Nov. 19, 1863, they find healing power in the words.
"This is a story about an amazing school, and these boys, whom you will fall in love with," Burns says. "But it's also about our connection with our past. We don't memorize stuff anymore, and we should."
