	Superman Super Site - Jerry Siegel
		Siegel and Shuster created Superman, inspired by Edgar Rice Burroughs's Tarzan and John Carter of Mars, Fleischer Studio's Popeye cartoons, the pulp magazine hero Doc Savage, and Philip Wylie's 1930 novel Gladiator (that last, according to Siegel, much less an inspiration than the fan press often asserts).
		In 1986, Siegel was invited by DC Comics' editor Julius Schwartz to write an "imaginary" final story for Superman, following the pivotal Crisis on Infinite Earths storyline and the miniseries The Man of Steel, which reintroduced Superman.
		Siegel declined, and the story was instead given to writer Alan Moore, and published in September 1986 in two parts (Superman #423 and Action Comics #583).

	Superman History
		Siegel first used the name in 1933 for a science fiction story, "The Reign of Superman," illustrated by Joe Shuster.
		It was early in 1938 that Siegel and Shuster sold the rights to Superman to DC for a reported $130, along with a contract to supply material to the publisher.
		Although Siegel and Shuster had been well compensated for their work, they were unhappy that they didn't own their own creation.

	Jerry Siegel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tragically, Mitchell Siegel was shot and killed in his store by a thief when Jerry Siegel was still in junior high school.
		Siegel went on to become comics art director for publisher Ziff-Davis in the early 1950s, and later returned to DC to write uncredited Superman stories in 1959.
		The Siegels argue that the character of "Superboy" was an independent contractor at the time of the original Superboy pitch, and DC wasn't interested.

	Narcolepsy may be Due to Loss of Brain Cells (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		The study, led by Jerome Siegel, Ph.D., a neurobiology researcher at the VA Medical Center in Sepulveda, Calif., and professor of psychiatry at UCLA, found that narcolepticsâ brains had up to 95 percent fewer hypocretin neurons than found in normal brains.
		Dr. Siegel believes the loss of hypocretin neurons may stem from an autoimmune attack by the body, or a sensitivity of the cells to certain environmental or biological toxins.
		Siegelâs work confirms the potential for new therapies aimed at restoring the hypocretin messaging system in the brain.

	The Comics Journal: Newswatch
		In April, Jerry Siegel's widow Joanne and daughter Laura filed a termination of copyright transfer which is intended to return the Superman copyright to the heirs of the character's co-creator.
		The Siegels served DC notice of their intent in April 1997 and followed through in April of this year, which may explain why DC decided to keep a low profile for Superman's 60th birthday.
		Siegel's surviving son Michael, who would account for the remaining percentage of Siegel's ownership, is apparently not a participant in the copyright termination.

	TIME.com: Up, Up and Awaaay!!! -- Mar. 14, 1988 -- Page 1
		Siegel, a scrawny, bespectacled teenager who was then drifting through Cleveland's Glenville High School, worked as a delivery boy for $4 a week, gave part of the money to help support his impoverished family and invested much of the rest in the adventures of Tarzan, Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon.
		It was a heroic scenario: the explosion of the doomed planet Krypton, the miraculous escape of the infant son of a Kryptonian scientist, the discovery of the baby's spaceship by an elderly couple near the Midwestern town of Smallville.
		Siegel went running to the house of his classmate and neighbor, Joe Shuster, the equally penniless son of a tailor from Toronto, and the two of them worked all day -- Siegel writing and Shuster drawing -- until they had finished no fewer than twelve newspaper strips.

	Inside the Superboy Copyright Decision - 4/11/2006 - Publishers Weekly
		That same year, Siegel created a pitch for a new strip, entitled "Superboy." In this proposal, new elements of the Superman legend were created, including details of his childhood and adolescence and such supporting characters as Pete Ross and Lana Lang.
		Toberoff said the Siegel decision could be significant—with more creations coming up for copyright renewal, publishers may try to sweeten the pot to keep authors or their heirs from filing.
		DC had argued in the past that because the Siegels did not own more than 50% of Superman, the termination was not valid, but it is speculated that this is the subject of ongoing negotiations.

	Brain Research Institute
		Siegel, a pioneer in translating animal sleep research into treating sleep problems in humans, wrote the analysis as part of a special section on sleep studies in the journal Nature.
		Marine mammals, such as whales and dolphins, sleep with just half of their brains, and since they're constantly at some stage of alert that allows them to keep swimming and coming to the surface to breathe, they too experience little or no REM sleep.
		Siegel speculates that humans have evolved to have more waking hours in order to "better compete with other humans." Studies have shown that people deprived of REM sleep due to certain psychoactive drugs or brain lesions don't seem to suffer any physical or cognitive consequences when they're awake.

	Mom was wrong, UCLA/VA researcher concludes sleep not essential for learning
		Following popular advice to sleep rather than study is unlikely to help a student ace the big exam, according to conclusions in a new review of REM sleep studies.
		However, it does not appear that sleep is required for memory formation,” said Siegel, professor of psychiatry at UCLA and chief of neurobiology research at the VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System Sepulveda in North Hills, Calif.
		Siegel reviewed the scientific community’s evidence on this hypothesis and found that depriving animals and humans of REM sleep by awakening them or by drug treatments does not impair their ability to form long-term memories.

	'Dissecting sleep' by studying the strange phenomenon of cataplexy
		Measuring brain cell activity in dogs with a genetic form of narcolepsy, neurobiologists Jerome Siegel and his colleagues have presented evidence that wakefulness is maintained by the activity of neurons triggered by the neurotransmitter histamine.
		Humans with narcolepsy have reduced numbers of neurons that release small proteins called hypocretins, and it is the effect of these proteins on histamine cells that govern wakefulness.

	Brain, heal thyself
		But research has found that when a rat is sleep-deprived the level of SOD in its brain drops, suggesting that sleep may be crucial for minimizing the brain cell damage caused by oxidative stress, says study author Jerome Siegel, PhD, a psychologist at the University of California, Los Angeles.
		At the end of the sleep deprivation period, they found that the level of SOD activity had decreased in the rats' hippocampus and brainstem.
		On the other hand, he points out, the cells in his study were damaged but not dead–so some of the damage might be reversible with sleep.

	No shut-eye for newborn dolphins, orcas
		"Somehow these seafaring mammals have found a way to cope with sleep deprivation, facilitating rather than hindering a crucial phase of development for their offspring," Jerome Siegel, a neuroscientist at the University of California - Los Angeles, said in a statement.
		As the calves grew, their sleep levels gradually reached adult levels of resting five to eight hours per day floating at the surface or lying on the bottom of the pool, rising occasionally for air.
		The results run contrary to previous research on rats and flies that suggests forced sleep deprivation for two to three weeks can be lethal.
