NCFM National Board of Directors

2012 ncfm board groupupdated 6/15/2016

ncfm

BACKGROUND: Each NCFM chapter, if they chose too, has no less than one seat on our national board. Voting members have been NCFM members for at least two years and are from full-fledged chapters. The Board may and does occasionally choose a Member at Large who is a voting member. Non-Voting Members are representatives from provisional chapters and/or who have not been NCFM members for at least two years. This arrangement allows NCFM to have a broad spectrum of backgrounds and interests from around the country represented on our Board.

    Prostate cancer screening and early detection does NOT saves men’s lives. Let’s do the math. Per the USPSTF (a US government health agency): “A small benefit and known harms from prostate cancer screening” and “Only one man in 1,000 could possibly have a life saving benefit from screening”. However about 1.3 to 3.5 deaths per 1,000 from prostate blind biopsies. Also 5 men in 1000 died and 20.4% had one or more complications within 30 days of a prostatectomy. This does not include deaths and injuries from other procedures, medical mistakes, increased suicide rate, ADT therapy complications, heart attracts, etc, caused by screening and treatments. Detection and overtreatment for prostate cancer has killed or destroyed millions of men’s lives worldwide from understated and multiple undisclosed side effects. The doctor that invented the PSA test, Dr. Richard Ablin now calls it: “The Great Prostate Mistake”, “Hoax” and “A Profit Driven Public Health Disaster”.

    Hello:

    My spouse worked for a State University in NY. He came on board with them and was subject to 6 years of a female older coworker telling lies about him, putting facebook posts saying lies about him and basically trying to get him fired. He contacted the HR Department, his supervisor, his supervisors supervisor about this harassment from this woman. The only action they took was to speak to her about it. It never stopped. he was an employee there for 6 years. when he was up for his permanent appointment, he was told he has a year to find a new job. His co-worker who harrassed was put in a safe spot. She was there longer and has seniority. Timing was strange as she had just filed a “discrimination” suit in Federal court against the university as she said my spouse was “less qualified and less experienced” The lawsuit was for 10 million dollars. My spouse testified in court, and the case was thrown out. After he testified less than a year later he was given his termination. I have pages and pages of documentation emails where he asked for help from the HR department, in addition to all of his reaching out to his superiors for help. Is there an agency such as yours in NY? Hoping to get recommendations for law firms, help groups etc. thank you.

      We have members in NY but no legal help. However, if you have really good documentation you might consider two things: (1) interview three or four really good labor law attorneys. If you have a solid case they may take it on contingency. (2) if you think the termination has to do with gender, sex, race or another protected class under Title IX you can file a complaint with the Federal Department of Education Office of Civil Rights. You should be able to file it without an attorney although seeking legal advice is advisable. Starting with your zip code Google something like “DOE OCR complaint process” or “DOE OCR complaint form,” something like that. You can do the same re the attorney, after your zip code type something like “labor law employment attorney.” Also, zip code then “DOE OCR attorney” or “OCR civil rights attorney.” We hope that helps.

    My basic concern is about the present climate showing men as idiots and incompetents on TV commercials..A good example is the change in roles of the man helping the woman fix her tire, and the switch we see now where the woman takes charge.
    I believe men must recover from the feminist onslaught. The Family is the most important unit in our culture, and when that disappears, America is doomed.
    I have written screenplays and novels. However, I have no experience in documentalries or teleplays. I can furnish a concept treatment for a documentary that will expose the inequities shown on TV commercials. If I can find someone to work with who can help turn out a documetary, I can offer my services.
    In the meantime can you put me in touch with someone in Utah who is interested in furthering your goals.
    Thank you,
    Loy Ray Clemons
