ACTIVITY AT CRBCM

WE HAVE NOW APPLIED FOR PROJECTS WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
ON RESEARCH ON TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY; OF COURSE, CHANCES OF SUCCESS APPEAR SLIM TO NONE.  MOTHER OF ALL POLITICS THERE.  BUT IT IS AN EXERCISE PREPARING US FOR BETTER.

WE HAVE NOW INITIATED EFFECTIVE CONTACT WITH OUR LOCAL UNIVERSITY - UTEP. WILL MEET DR RENATO J. AGUILERA ON MONDAY FOR CONSULTATION AND HAVE SUBMITTED FOR EXERCISE PURPOSE 2 LETTERS OF INTENT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE RESEARCH ACTIVITIES OF THE "BORDER BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH CENTER (BBRC)"- EXPECTATION AGAIN LOW.  WE WILL LEARN FROM WHAT THEIR CRITICISM WILL BE.

PLAN 2 GRANTS APPLICATIONS AT NIH AND 2 FOR ASCO THIS YEAR.
IF YOU THINK CPRIT IS A POLITICAL FARCE AND GIMMICK, THINK AGAIN WHEN YOU REACH ASCO AND THE OTHER REAL DEALS.

THE POINT IS THAT WE CANNOT BE FAULTED FOR TRYING.   WE ARE NOT THE MD ANDERSON WITH 42% SUCCESS RATE AT CPRIT, BETTER THAN MOST TARGET THERAPY RESULTS!   THE JOKE IS ON US WHO INNOCENTLY APPLIED BELIEVING IN A POTENTIAL FAIR SYSTEM THAT WAS A JOKE UNDER THE OLD LEADERSHIP AT CPRIT.  WE ARE EAGER TO SEE WHAT COMES OUT OF THE REFORMED CPRIT, IF ANY!  EVERY SESSION WAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO FUNNEL MORE MONEY TO MD ANDERSON AND BAYLOR, NO WONDER THE ENTIRE CPRIT SHIP WENT DOWN LIKE THE TITANIC, HOUSTON IS NOT TEXAS PEOPLE, WAKE UP!

HERE HOWEVER, THE NEED OF US IN THE MARKET IS PROPULSING US TO STAY ALIVE.  EL PASO IS AN UNDERSERVED AREA.  WE ARE NEEDED, SO DOORS ARE OPENING DESPITE NORMAL RESISTANCE...SO CRBCM IS ADVANCING EVEN IN TROUBLED WATERS...WE WILL BE HERE UNTIL WE ARE HEARD.   THE IRS WAS A SURPRISE OPPONENT, YOU WOULD THINK THAT THE GOVERNMENT WOULD BE THERE TO HELP SMALL BUSINESSES AND NON PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS.  NO, THEY ARE SITTING ON OUR FILE.  WE JUST LOST 60,000 DOLLARS THAT COULD HAVE HELPED THE PEOPLE OF EL PASO THROUGH OUR PROGRAM BECAUSE OF FAILURE OF IRS TO GRANT US THE NON PROFIT STATUS.  A COALITION IS NON PROFIT PAR-EXCELLENCE PEOPLE! WAKE UP.  EVEN THE IRS COMMISSIONER IS OUT TO LUNCH.  WE WROTE TO HIM.  NO RESPONSE.  HE SEEMS MORE BUSY WORKING TO STAY IN POWER TO DO NOTHING!  SOUNDS FAMILIAR.  PEOPLE WHO INDULGE IN POLITICS SOMETIME WORK SO HARD POLITICKING THAT THEY FORGET THEIR PRIMARY JOB!

WELL, WE ARE NOT DEAD YET; THE CRBCM WILL KEEP UP THE FIGHT!
LET'S GET READY, RACE FOR THE CURE IS COMING UP ON FEBRUARY 17TH.
GET THOSE SNEAKERS AND RUNNERS OUT AND GET INTO YOUR BEST SHAPE EVER!
