Helping troops combat plaque

UK researcher working with
Army to create combat gum

By Shannon Mason
m: kzurucxv mm

Dr. Patrick DeLuca is taking the oral health of
the US. Army into his own hands A by giving sol-

diers something to chew on.

DeLuca, a drug product developer at UK. is
working with the Army to develop a combat chew-
ing gum for soldiers out in the field who don't have
time to brush their teeth. The project is currently in

its second year of development.

DeLuca said the Army contacted him because it
wanted something to improve the oral healthcare of

soldiers.

“They were interested in having a gum or device
to help keep soldiers teeth and gums clean out in
the field," DeLuca said.

“They wanted a sus‘
tained-release antibacteri-
al agent that would keep
the oral cavity free of
plaque and bacteria."

He said in wars of the
past 30 years. about 14 to

gum would be ideal in sit-

when regular

brushing was not possible.
“There‘s no substitute

for brushing," he said.

“Brushing is the best way."

DeLuca said all chewing gums do not contain
antibacterial agents. and some of the brands that
do have been shown to cause staining of the teeth.
DeLuca said he’s working with a new antibacterial
agent — a form of a peptide —— without the staining
problem as some of the current agents on the mar-

ket.

The new agent also has other benefits. he said.
“It is destroyed if swallowed, it‘s not unpleasant
and it is less objectionable from a standpoint of

taste,” DeLuca said.

DeLuca said he expects the product to eventual-

ly be made available to the public.

“If it’s used in the Army, it will end up in pub-

lic,” he said. “It’s highly desirable and attractive."
The Wm. Wrigley Jr. Co. has shown interest in
eventually producing the gum, DeLuca said.

Pharmacy professor Dr. Patrick DeLuca is developing a chewing gum that will allow soldiers in the
field to keep their teeth clean without having to carry extra weight of dental care products or worry
about their oral health if they don't have the chance to brush their teeth often.

David Halberstam, a Pulitzer Prize-win-
ning author. will speak tonight at Memorial
Hall at 7. kicking off the start of the Distin-
guished Author Lectures presented by UK
Libraries.

Halberstam has written 14 bestsellers,
ranging from his coverage in Vietnam, for
which he won the Pulitzer

FEMA to stop paying evacuees’

By Peter G. Gosselin
LOS moms TIMES

WASHINGTON _ Federal
officials said yesterday that the
government would stop paying
the hotel bills on Dec. 1 for as
many as 150,000 evacuees from
hurricanes Katrina and Rita as
they push storm victims to find
more stable, and less expensive.
housing.

Officials at the Federal
Emergency Management
Agency acknowledged that evac-
uees living in storm-damaged
Mississippi and Louisiana may
have trouble finding alternate
housing. But about the best
FEMA could offer was the possi-
bility of two-week extensions of
the deadline for residents of
those two states.

There is a sufficient supply
of apartments elsewhere in the
nation to house the evacuees,

the officials said. But they were
u n c l e a r
how. or
w h e t h e r.
the govern-
ment might
help in find-
ing and
paying for
accommo-
dations.

“There
are still too
many peo-
ple living in
hotel rooms, and we want to
help them get into longer-term
homes before the holidays,”
FEMA acting director R. David
Paulison said in a statement.
“Across the country, there are
readily available, longer-term
housing solutions.“

FEMA's action is almost cer-
tain to sow consternation both

storms and among officials in
the areas that have taken them
in.

In a memo sent Monday to
FEMA officials. David Garratt,
the agency’s acting director of
recovery. said that starting Dec.
1 FEMA would no longer reim-
burse states for new leases to
house storm victims. Next
March 1, FEMA will stop paying
for existing leases that many
states co—signed with evacuees.
even though many run for a
year or more.

The cutoff would hit espe-
cially hard in states with the
largest numbers of evacuees.
such as Texas and Georgia.

In the memo, Garratt said
victims may still be eligible for
individual assistance. some of
which could be used for rent.
But it was unclear whether
those now in hotels would be
provided with individual aid as

hotel bills

part of the effort to move them
elsewhere. In a hastily called
telephone press conference yes-
terday, FEMA officials said only
that they would work to notify
victims of “all available op-
tions.“

Under federal law, FEMA
can provide disaster-stricken
families with up to $26,200 in
aid. and the agency recently an-
nounced that it would pay out
the full sum to about 60,000
households in the worst-hit ar-
eas of Mississippi and
Louisiana. But it has approved
only about $4.500 in aid pay-
ments to an additional 450,000
displaced families. The second
of those payments. part of a
three-month apartment assis-
tance program, is set to expire
Dec. 23.

In all, FEMA said it has
doled out $1.2 billion in transi-
tional housing assistance.

 

Senate: Iraqis

Resolution urges
Bush administration to
give power back to Iraq

By Maura Reynolds and Mark Mazzetti
10s incurs rmcs

WASHINGTON A— The Sen-
ate took a step yesterday toward
tightening the reins on the war
in Iraq, adopting a resolution
that calls for the Bush adminis
tration to turn over to Iraqis
more control of their country to
hasten the eventual withdrawal
of US. troops.

The measure comes as con-
cern over the war’s course is ris-
ing even among Republican law
makers and President Bush’ 3 ap
proval ratings have sank to the
lowest of his presidency.

The resolution. which passed
with broad bipartisan support,

 

7919, calls for 2006 to be “a peri-
od of significant transition to full
Iraqi sovereignty." which would
create conditions for “the phased
redeployment of United States
forces from lraq."

It also would require the ad-
ministration to report to Con‘
gress every three months on the
status of the conflict in Iraq.

The measure passed afier the
Senate rejected, 58-40, a Democ-
rat-sponsored amendment to re-
quire Bush to prepare an esti-
mated timetable for the with-
drawal of US. troops from lraq
—— a proposal strongly opposed by
the administration. The vote on
this amendment largely followed
party lines.

The provision that passed is
part of the annual defense spend.
ing bill, which this year has
spurred the Senate's first signifi-
cant debate of the administra-
tion‘s conduct of the war since

mmmwmam

Congress voted more than three
years ago to authorize the inva-
sion.

“We want accountability
from this president." said Sen.
Richard Durbin. D-lll.. the Sen-
ate‘s No. 2 Democrat. “It's not
good enough for the president to
make speeches about staying the
course when the course has led
to so many lives being lost. so
many dollars being spent.”

The Senate version of the de-
fense legislation , . which is tra-
ditionally a “must pass" bill ~
includes two other provisions
aimed at changing administra-
tion practices related to the war.

One is an amendment ap
proved earlier this month that
bans all agencies of the US. gov-
ernment from engaging in “cru-
el, inhumane and degrading
treatment." including torture.
Another. passed yesterday, Would

should have greater control of their country

grant foreign detainees held by
the US. in Guantanamo Bay,
Cuba. limited rights to appeal
their incarceration or convic-
tions to a federal court.

The House version of the bill
does not contain any of these
provisions. so whether they re-
main in the legislation‘s final
form remains uncertain.

Backing the resolution on
Iraq were 41 Republicans. 37 De-
mocrats and the Senate‘s lone in-
dependent. Opposing it were 13
Republicans and six Democrats.

A CNN/Gallup/USA Today
poll released yesterday found
that 60 percent of respondents
disapproved of Bush‘s perfor-
mance as president. while 37 per-
cent said they approved the
president‘s poorest showing in
the survey. which has a margin
of error of three percentage
points.

UK police
make third
theft arrest

Police say no connection to two
employees arrested last week

By Megan Boehnke
m: xsurucrv mm

UK police arrested a man Friday in con-
nection with a series of petty thefts on cam-
pus over the last several weeks, acting UK
Police Chief Kevin Franklin said yesterday.

Undercover officers part of the investi-
gation into the thefts stopped John F. Lewis,
45. in the Fine Arts Guignol Building. The
officers asked why Lewis, who matched the
description given by witnesses, was in the
building. since he did not appear to be a
student, faculty or staff, said Lt. Greg Hall.
who is working on the case.

Hall said he arrested Lewis in 2003 for
“writing forged checks stolen from purses
here on campus."

“I had told him not to come back (on
campus)." he said.

After speaking with Hall. the undercov-
er officers arrested Lewis on charges of
criminal trespassing. Lewis declined to be
interviewed by police, Hall said.

The thefts have occurred mostly at cam-
pus locations including the Student Center.
Erickson Hall and the Fine Arts Building.

During the investigation, officers arrest-
ed two employees a week before Lewis. Po-
lice officers. who were searching for the
Lewis out of uniform, witnessed Karen
Taylor, 21. and Taleka Lewis. 38. take a
purse from the lobby of Patterson Office
Tower.

One of those arrested pleaded guilty to
an amended charge, while the other is fac-
ing felony charges, Hall said. Franklin
added that he did not believe Lewis was
working with the women. and he is not re-
lated to Taleka Lewis.

Hall is now taking photo line-ups to vic-
tims who may have seen someone take their
property or seen someone acting suspicious

Gum

Continued from page 1

DeLuca said he and some of his
staff members have tried the proto-
types of the gum.

“We have tested the (guni‘s) stabil-
ity in our own mouths." he said.

A machine chews the gum proto-
types and allows DeLuca to track the
release of the antibacterial agents
and test the gum.

“We haven't really tested on real
teeth." he said. “But we have tested
the peptide 0n simulated tooth-like
substances."

DeLuca said he hopes to have sev‘
eral prototypes of the gum in the
clinical-trial stage within the next
year. He said the clinical trials will
most likely be conducted on soldiers
in the field.

 Pentagon delays Interrogation manual's release

Dylomm
Minimum

WASHINGTON _ The
Pentagon is delaying the
planned release this week of
the Army's new interroga-
tion manual, which calls for
humane treatment of prison-
ers and specifically prohibits
the kind of harsh tactics that
came to light after the Abu
Ghraib scandal, officials said
yesterday

Two defense officials said
that White House aides be
lieve the manual. which was
scheduled to be released to
morrow, is too vague about
the precise interrogation
techniques that may be used.

The manual, largely com-
pleted last spring, is designed
to replace the current ver-
sion. now 13 years old. The
new instructions specifically

bar such tactics as sleep de-
privation. stripping prisoners
and the use of dogs. It insists
on humane treatment in ac-
cordance with the Geneva
Conventions and with
treaties on humane treat-
ment.

Its release was to be ac
companied by a classified cir-
cular. which would outline
types of interrogations proce
dures that are allowed.

Led by Vice President
Dick Cheney, the White
House has been locked in a
fierce struggle for weeks with
Congress and the Pentagon
over whether more harsh in-
terrogation techniques can be
used. The administration is
trying to prevent passage of a
measure by Sen. John Mc~
Cain, R-Ariz.. that would out-
law abuse of any terror sus-
pect held in US. custody.

Release of the Army's
new manual. which had been
scheduled for today at a Pen-
tagon event featuring a num-
ber of Army and Defense De-
partment officials, might
have been used by McCain
and his allies as fresh ammu-
nition against Cheney and
the administration in the de-
bate over treatment of pris-
oners.

instead, the staffs of se-
nior US. military comman-
ders around the world have
been ordered to review the
manual. and the delay in its
release is "open-ended.“ one
official said.

"The White House is buy-
ing more time." said one Pen-
tagon official of the delay

McCain‘s legislation
would make the Army manu-
al the standard interrogation
blueprint for the US. govern-

ment and would bar all US.
government agencies from
“.cruel inhuman or degrad-
ing treatment" of prisoners.
The McCain amendment
passed the Senate overwhelm-
ingly and is now being con
sidered by a House- Senate
conference committee.
Pentagon spokesman
Bryan Whitman said he was
not aware of any White
House concern about the tim-
ing of the release of the man-
ual

Whitman said the deci-
sion to postpone release of
the manual was made by "the
people who were working on
it" within the Pentagon. He
added that Defense Secretary
Donald H. Rumsfeld was not
involved in the decision and
declined to predict exactly
when the manual would be
released.

‘Govenator’ advocates piracy laws 1n China

By Mary McNamara
103 mass TIMES

Some people will travel
halfway around the globe to
be mobbed by fans. and early
this week, California Gov.
Arnold Schwarzenegger did
just that. When he arrived in
Beijing on Monday. he was
instantly engulfed by crowds
of adoring Chinese. Security
became an issue, and so did
irony.

Schwarzenegger is in
China to promote California
products and. as important.
to encourage a crackdown on
entertainment piracy. His
popularity makes him the
perfect spokesman. but there
is no denying that this popu-
larity is due, at least in part,
to piracy — according to in-
dustry estimates. at least 90
percent of DVDs sold in Chi-
na are pirated.

This doesn't mean “The
Terminator” has never been
seen in the country legally.
With their consistent lack of
overt political, sexual or reli-
gious content, Schwarzeneg-
ger films are almost tailor-
made to pass China’s State
Administration of Radio,
Film and TV’s stringent
guidelines. The governor’s

I (war II) Ir]

flmr; x" II I? (Irnr'

cinematic “Weltanschauung”
also fits right into the Chi-
nese predilection for action
films. with the added benefit
of having minimal dialogue
to translate. A grimace is a
grimace in any language.

“Action movies are the
ones that really perform in
Asia." said David Kosse.
president of international
marketing and distribution
for Universal Pictures. “And
although he hasn't made a
movie in a while. when
Arnold was in films. he
worked them very hard. He
did a lot of traveling and a
lot of publicity. So he is still
considered a big star over
there."

According to Kori
Bernards, a spokeswoman
for the Motion Picture Asso-
ciation of America.
Schwarzenegger has made
more appearances in Chi-
nese movie theaters than any
other actor in the last 10
years. Six of his films. in-
cluding “True Lies." “Eras-
er,” “Terminator 2" and most
recently “Terminator 3."
have been distributed the-
atrically. “True Lies“ made
102 million Chinese yuan
renminbi (or $12.6 million.

 

huge by Chinese standards).
while others have been 11-
censed to China Central Tele-
vision.

This gives him a large
presence in China’s limited
foreign film landscape: the
only person who comes close
is Keanu Reeves. who starred
in five theatrically distrib-
uted films. including the
“Matrix" trilogy. during the
same period.

“The governor is a wel-
come ally in our fight against
piracy in China." said
Bernards.

China‘s vast. largely un—
tapped film,and television
market has been eyed hun-
grily for years by Western
studios. Although it has al-
lowed Western films to be
distributed theatrically since
the days of “Snow White,"
the Chinese government im-
poses strict limitations on
how many and what sort of
films can be shown.

On television. no foreign
content is supposed to be
broadcast during prime time
on any of the country’s al-
most 2.000 stations. and only
25 percent of what airs
throughout the rest of the
day can be non-Chinese.

But no matter what the
medium —» theater. television
or pirated DVD ~ the action
movie remains the most pop-
ular. From more home- grown
varieties. such as Jackie
Chan and Jet Li. to
Schwarzenegger, Sylvester
Stallone and Reeves, action
heroes rule the Asian mar-
ket.

“You don‘t need to under-
stand American culture; the
narratives are drawn in cray-
on." said Marty Kaplan, asso
ciate dean of the University
of Southern California An-
nenberg School for Commu-
nication. “And in a strange
sort of time warp.
Schwarzenegger and Stal-
lone are still kings.“

The governor‘s enthusias-
tic reception highlights what
U.S. studio executives have
known for years: There is a
fortune waiting to be made
in the People’s Republic. Al-
though the Chinese media
and entertainment market
has grown rapidly in the last
five years. movie attendance
in China has suffered a drop-
off that makes this year’s
U.S. slump pale in compari-
son »—— from 29.3 billion in
1977 to 200 million in 2004.
