The approach is called a cancer vaccine, although it treats the disease rather than prevents it. At a cancer conference Sunday,researchers said one such vaccine kept a common form of lymphoma from worsening for more than a AP PHOTO year. That’s huge in this field, where progress is glacial and Dr.Patrick Hwu, left, talks with his cancer patient Hilde Stapleton during an success with a new treatment examination at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston is often measured in weeks or on May 27.

COMMENTARY PRO TENNIS Vols’ Kiffin on a boat of his own

ane Kiffin is not stupid. Sure, the new University of Tennessee LLcoach comes across as cocky, overconfident and someone who talks a big game with no credentials to back it up, but so what? Did you see the Volunteers play last year? There hasn’t been much to hype up in Knoxville for the last few years. So the 34-year-old Kiffin is creating some hot-air hoopla by blowing smoke. He has told everyone his team is going to beat Florida. He has called Urban Meyer a cheater. At times it appeared he didn’t know the rules of recruiting. And he AP PHOTO allegedly told a Spain's Rafael Nadal tries to get up after taking a tumble while playing against Sweden's Robin Soderling during their Adam recruit that chose fourth round match of the French Open tennis tournament at the Roland Garros stadium in Paris, Sunday another school over Krohn the Vols he’ll be “pumping gas for a living.” Now, is the most conventional way Nadal upset by Soderling to put your program on the map? No. Most coaches prefer to be humble and let their record speak for itself. But Kiffin has placed himself in a different boat. In his mind, he doesn’t have two 4-time defending French Open champ’s reign over or three years to wait for the Volunteers to post a Top 10 finish.
