M-3 Information entered the smart phone application environment by offering the M-3 Checklist, a scientifically validated screen for depression and anxiety disorders, at the iTunes store on Friday, April 30, 2010. Adapted from M-3 Information's existing mymoodmonitor.com Web site, this mobile version, called mym3, provides the same validated mental health questionnaire optimized for smart phones. A first in iPhone applications, mym3 is designed to create a bridge between user responses and recommendations set forth in the content-rich M3 Web site application.

For users in distress and at risk of suicide, mym3 provides a direct, one-button link to call a national suicide hotline.

Interactive applications of this sort, offering users validated medical assessment and feedback in real-time, has the potential to greatly improve the dynamics of healthcare delivery for individuals who might otherwise suffer in silence. The value of this technology to college and military populations, among others, is considerable.

The "mym3 app" is available to iPhone (telephone and data) and iTouch (data only) users through the Apple iTunes applications store, where it is for sale for $2.99. M-3 Information contributes a portion of the proceeds to Mental Health America. Applications for the Droid and Blackberry operating systems are currently under review.

About the M-3 Checklist:

Since the publication of the validation article in March, 2010 the M-3 Checklist has been taken by people in over 120 countries and all 50 states. The M-3 Checklist was validated in a study performed at the University of North Carolina and reported in the March 2010 issue of the Annals of Family Medicine. The study was based on the responses of 647 patients at the University of North Carolina Family Practice Medicine Clinic. Patients can track their M3 score on Microsoft HealthVault via mymoodmonitor.com .

About M-3 Information, LLC:

The M3 was developed by a team of mental health, strategic communications, and information management experts, including Robert M. Post, MD, head of the Bipolar Collaborative Network; Bernard M. Snyder, MD, assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at Georgetown University and a cognitive behavioral therapist; Michael L. Byer, director of M-3 Information; Larry Culpepper, MD, family practice program at Boston University; Gerald Hurowitz, MD, assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at Columbia University and a clinical psychopharmacologist.

New Kodiak Cola Offers Premium Taste at a Kodiak-Sized Value

Author: Multi-Flow Industries
Dateline: Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania (HUNTINGDON VALLEY, Pa.)  | Tue, 04 May 2010

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “HUNTINGDON VALLEY, Pa. -- Multi-Flow Industries, a Beverage Processor near Philadelphia, PA, has proudly produced value-priced cola concentrates for 75 years. CEO Mark Stephens, however, said, 'Kola with a K is out of production. And Multi-Flow is incredibly proud to introduce our new premium cola that beats both national brands in blind taste tests, delivers an impactful brand message, and best of all, offers a true value to foodservice operators as a lower-priced alternative to both Coke and Pepsi.'”



A R T I C L E:

Multi-Flow Industries (www.multiflow.net), a Beverage Processor near Philadelphia, PA, has proudly produced value-priced cola concentrates for 75 years. CEO Mark Stephens, however, said, "Kola with a 'K' is out of production. And Multi-Flow is incredibly proud to introduce our new premium cola that beats both national brands in blind taste tests, delivers an impactful brand message, and best of all, offers a true value to foodservice operators as a lower-priced alternative to both Coke and Pepsi."

The new cola brand introduced recently in Multi-Flow's headquarters is being marketed as "Kodiak Cola." The journey, according to Stephens, was based upon employee input, customer feedback, and several branding contests that "all led us to one conclusion: Kodiak Cola is poised to be a national player in the cola wars."

The first challenge, according to Product Development Director Owen Rothstein, was to create a cola beverage that would stand up to the national brands in blind taste tests. "We tested dozens, if not hundreds, of recipes using various blends and mixtures of cola flavoring, including vanilla, cinnamon, and citrus. Then we pounded away at different blends of sweeteners to ensure we outscored the national brands in sensory attribute tests." The results, according to Rothstein, prove that the new cola outscores the current national brands by as much as a 2-to-1 ratio. And best of all, operators can save as much as $30 per Bag-in-Box by converting from Coke/Pepsi to Kodiak Cola. "That could equate to thousands of dollars a year," Rothstein said.

The next challenge was to create a brand that delivered a premium message. "We held several internal contests with our employees to develop and then choose a brand image that represented the 3 attributes we wanted to deliver: Big, Bold, and Pure," Stephens said. "After several inter-company polls, we were convinced that 'Kodiak Cola' was the brand image that represented everything we were trying to convey."

The imagery of a Kodiak Bear representing the new cola was developed by District Service Manager Randy Christopher. "When I first tasted the new cola," said Randy, "I just kept thinking about a gigantic grizzly bear, roaring, a huge and natural creature that's not afraid of anything. For years, we've sold a generic cola, but now, we have a beverage that's not afraid to go toe-to-toe with the national brands."

Next job for the Product Development Team was to develop the logo that would accompany the new cola into a widely-anticipated product launch. Instead of developing logo concepts with their Graphic Designer, the Multi-Flow team posted a "Logo Contest" on logomyway.com, hoping that several different designers would offer up many different artistic approaches to convey the "Kodiak" message. The results, according to Business Development Manager Brett Rosenbloom, were incredible. "We received over 175 different logo concepts from graphic designers all over the world." And the winning concept was, once again, put to a company-wide vote.

"The end result," according to Stephens, "is a cola brand that is being universally applauded throughout the Multi-Flow Family." Kodiak will be branded under the "Micro-Brewed by Multi-Flow" logo, and is available in Regular Cola as well as Diet Cola. Rothstein said, "Diet Kodiak Cola was put through the same scrutiny as the Regular version. And we're proud to announce that Diet Kodiak Cola demands the same attention as the regular recipe: Big, Bold, and Pure."

Kodiak Cola and Diet Kodiak Cola join the rest of the "Micro-Brewed by Multi-Flow" lineup as premium fountain soft drinks offered at a value price versus national brands. All are available for immediate national distribution to restaurants, foodservice, and all other locations that serve fountain-dispensed soft drinks.

More information is available at Multi-Flow Industries' company Web site, www.multiflow.net .

New DVD Warns Parents of Criminal and Legal Consequences of Bullying

Author: Omni Publishing Company
Dateline: Wareham, Massachusetts (WAREHAM, Mass.)  | Tue, 04 May 2010

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “WAREHAM, Mass. -- Omni Publishing Co. today announced the May 15 release of a DVD aimed at helping parents understand the criminal and legal consequences of bullying. The DVD, 'Bullying, Hazing and Parents - A Guide for Parents of Middle and High School Students,' warns parents that they must be aware of and accountable for their children's behavior.”



A R T I C L E:

Omni Publishing Co. today announced the May 15 release of a DVD aimed at helping parents understand the criminal and legal consequences of bullying. The DVD, "Bullying, Hazing and Parents - A Guide for Parents of Middle and High School Students," warns parents that they must be aware of and accountable for their children's behavior.

Publisher Henry M. Quinlan, Esq., a leading expert in the area of school law and issues involving violence in schools, says the tragic suicide of Phoebe Prince in January has set off a series of consequences taking effect throughout the country. The indictment of six students from South Hadley High School, in Massachusetts, has set an example of using criminal law in situations previously viewed as "school discipline" issues.

New laws are being passed calling for criminal investigations and prosecutions when harassment, bullying and cyber-bullying activities are deemed to be criminal in nature. Victims and their parents are seeking civil damages as the result of these activities - and the judicial system is upholding these rights.

"Parents need to know that if their child is bullying someone, he or she could become involved in criminal activities and or incur civil liability as the result of their behavior. Parents could incur enormous legal expenses, and in some cases incur civil liability themselves," said Quinlan.

Key highlights from the DVD include:

What parents should do if they discover their child is being bullied.
What parents should do if they discover their child is a bully.
Why parents need to know what their kids are doing online.
What is the parent's responsibility?
What is the school's responsibility?
How to avoid criminal consequences.
How to avoid civil consequences.

Del Mar DataTrac®, Inc. (DMD), the leading provider of affordable end-to-end mortgage lending automation solutions, and an industry pioneer in business intelligence, document imaging and management, and loan process workflow tools, has added four new DataTrac ExTrac options. These ExTracs facilitate the extraction, quality control and exchange of mortgage loan data between mortgage bankers and warehouse lenders or servicing vendors.

In Q1 2010, the DataTrac ExTrac was developed by DMD to streamline the funding process with Comerica, Texas Capital Bank and FiservWireXchange; and to support the servicing process with Dovenmuehle Mortgage Inc. The funding ExTracs are designed to send data from the DataTrac central database to the warehouse lenders before funds can be disbursed. For servicing, ExTracs are designed to transfer loan data to a servicing system used to manage the servicing of loans.

DataTrac ExTracs perform many functions: capture required DataTrac data; perform a quality control check against defined vendor requirements; and translate the data in a required format to the other system. This results in a seamless transfer of information eliminating data integrity issues.

"Avoiding data errors is the single most important component to the risk management strategy for a mortgage banker," said DMD vice president for client services Sue Sroka. "DMD always strives to share information with other services to eliminate rekeying of data and streamline the process."

Epeius Biotechnologies Reports Major Clinical Advances: Noteworthy Clinical Case Studies in Cancer Gene Therapy

Author: Epeius Biotechnologies Corporation
Dateline: San Marino, California (SAN MARINO, Calif.)  | Tue, 04 May 2010

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “SAN MARINO, Calif. -- Epeius Biotechnologies Corporation, a leader in the field of targeted genetic medicine, reports the publication of three major publications in the field. The first article entitled 'Rexin-G, A Targeted Genetic Medicine for Metastatic Cancer' (Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, May, 2010) documents the development of Rexin-G: a tumor-targeted retrovector bearing a cytocidal cyclin G1 construct; the first targeted gene therapy vector to gain FDA Fast Track designation and Orphan Drug priorities for multiple cancer indications in the USA.”



A R T I C L E:

Epeius Biotechnologies Corporation, a leader in the field of targeted genetic medicine, reports the publication of three major publications in the field. The first article entitled "Rexin-G, A Targeted Genetic Medicine for Metastatic Cancer" (Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, May, 2010) documents the development of Rexin-G: a tumor-targeted retrovector bearing a cytocidal cyclin G1 construct; the first targeted gene therapy vector to gain FDA Fast Track designation and Orphan Drug priorities for multiple cancer indications in the USA. What the reader will gain: In recording the development of Rexin-G as a novel targeted biological therapy, this review also highlights important aspects of vector engineering which served to overcome the physiological barriers to gene delivery as it addresses the key regulatory issues involved in the development of a targeted gene therapy product. Take home message: Progressive clinical development of Rexin-G demonstrates the potential safety and efficacy of targeted genetic medicine in otherwise intractable cancers, while validating the design engineering of the molecular biotechnology platform.

The second article, entitled "Noteworthy Clinical Case Studies in Cancer Gene Therapy" (Intl. J. Oncology, April, 2010) highlights important aspects of Rexin-G bio-pharmacology, as this tumor-targeted vector advances as an efficacious anti-cancer agent. What the reader will gain: These remarkable case studies, in and of themselves, reveal important aspects of the molecular pharmacology, advanced clinical protocols, refinement of patient monitoring, expanding treatment options, and strategic medical approaches to patient care that exemplify and thereby extend the established principles of pathotropic targeting and cancer gene therapy to a new generation of clinical practitioners. Take home message: Each case study, in an otherwise intractable cancer, "teaches" a vital lesson in the emerging praxis of cancer control.

Finally, the third article comes in the form of a Mini review entitled "Nanoparticles and the Immune System" (Endocrinology, Feb, 2010) co-authored by members of the FDA Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, Office of Pharmaceutical Science, and the Nanotechnology Characterization Laboratory of the National Cancer Institute. What the reader will gain: This astute review of medical nanotechnology aptly describes the concept of targeted delivery of Rexin-G followed by Reximmune-C as a two-tier complementary approach aimed at both tumor eradication and personalized cancer vaccination. That is, the first step involves the use of Rexin-G to target and control the progression of metastatic cancer, whereas the second step employs Reximmune-C to induce a localized cancer immunization. Take home message: This is a commendable and timely review of these first-in-class, best-in-class tumor-targeted anti-cancer agents, which may supersede more cumbersome approaches to personalized cancer vaccinations.
