This review is from: SAMSUNG S27C750P High Glossy Black / Metalic Silver Stand 27" 5ms HDMI Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 DCR Mega (3000:1)
Pros: Bright screen
Great color reproduction
Fantastic viewing angles
Super stable base
Very thin bezel and screen thickness
Cons: Not VESA mount compatible
Only HDMI and VGA inputs
1080P at 27" is pushing the pixel density, I would have preferred to have more, but hard to count as a con considering the price
Other Thoughts: This really is a great monitor, I use it for gaming, and my card tops out the 60 FPS that it is capable of for nice smooth gaming. 1080P is a little on the low-end for a monitor of this size, but it's kind of a non-issue at this point
More related to NewEgg customer service:
The first of these monitors that I ordered was stolen, or lost in shipping. NewEgg sent me a new one in amazingly quick and helpful fashion. Great job NewEgg, this is one of the many reasons that I come here first when shopping for computer components!
This review is from: NZXT SWITCH 810 Matte Black CA-SW810-M1 Steel / Plastic ATX HYBRID Full Tower Gaming Computer Case
Pros: Plenty of space for custom liquid loop
Great modular drive setup
Clean lines/design
Room on top of case under removable cover for fans= more room for rads
Fantastic cable management
Cons: Door for USB and SD access a bit odd to open...
Other Thoughts: Overall, this is a fantastic case, but only buy it unless you need all of the room, or you want some options for case mods, which I have many plannedREAD FULL REVIEW

This paper focuses on the interpretation of the Italian approximative adverb quasi 'almost' by primarily looking at cases in which it modifies temporal connectives, a domain which, to our knowledge, has been largely unexplored thus far. Consideration of this domain supports the need for a scalar account of the semantics of quasi (close in spirit to Hitzeman's semantic analysis of almost, in: Canakis et al. (eds) Papers from the 28th regional meeting of the Chicago Linguistic Society, 1992). When paired with suitable analyses of temporal connectives, such an account can provide a simple explanation of the patterns of implication that are observed when quasi modifies locational (e.g. quando 'when'), directional (e.g. fino 'until' and da 'since'), and event-sequencing temporal connectives (e.g. prima 'before' and dopo 'after'). A challenging empirical phenomenon that is observed is a contrast between the modification of fino and da by quasi, on the one hand, and the modification of prima and dopo by the same adverb, on the other. While quasi fino and quasi da behave symmetrically, a puzzling asymmetry is observed between quasi prima and quasi dopo. To explain the asymmetry, we propose an analysis of prima and dopo on which the former has the meaning of the temporal comparative più presto 'earlier', while the latter is seen as an atomic predicate denoting temporal succession between events (Del Prete, Nat Lang Semantics 16:157–203, 2008). We show that the same pattern of implication observed for quasi prima is attested when quasi modifies overt comparatives, and propose a pragmatic analysis of this pattern that uniformly applies to both cases, thus providing new evidence for the claim that prima is underlyingly a comparative. A major point of this paper is a discussion of the notion of scale which is relevant for the semantics of quasi; in particular, we show that the notion of Horn (entailment-based) scale is not well-suited for handling modification of temporal connectives, and that a more general notion of scale is required in order to provide a uniform analysis of quasi as a cross-categorial modifier.

Open wide the doors for Christ
Pope Benedict XVI, speaking at the Basilica of San Lorenzo in Rome, which was badly damaged by Allied bombing in July 1943, again praised Pius XII, a pope seen by Jewish leaders and other critics as having turned a blind eye to the Holocaust, and who is nonetheless on his way towards beatification, a step towards sainthood. The Vatican contends that Pius XII worked behind the scenes to help many escape the Holocaust, although many Catholics question the beatification.
The Paulists
150 years ago, Father Isaac Thomas Hecker, a Catholic priest looking for a way to convert more North Americans, founded the Paulist Fathers. From the start, they took a mass communications approach to proselytizing, from the magazine the Catholic World in 1865 to the website Busted Halo. At the same time, they are also decidedly ecumenical and have a history of disagreeing with Rome, sometimes to the ire of other Catholics.

I'm looking for some ideas/suggestions for solutions for my client's site that I built in WordPress last year. It is a university fitness program and they are looking for a way to extend the site for users of their program.
They would like a message board/forum for their marathon training program, and I know there are quite a few plugins that would allow me to do this. The other thing they'd like to do though, is provide a place for users to log into their account and log their workouts. So - what I am looking for is a way for logged in users to enter data into some kind of form and then be able to view this data, view a list of entries, etc. It would be fairly basic data - workout time, pace, notes. I'm just not sure of a way to do achieve this in the front end, for WordPress users (not admins using the Dashboard). Anything out there that might work?

Temperature drops at the interfaces between thermoelectric materials and the heat source and sink reduce the overall efficiency of thermoelectric systems. Nanostructured interfaces based on vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) promise the combination of mechanical compliance and high thermal conductance required for thermoelectric modules, which are subjected to severe thermomechanical stresses. This work discusses the property require- ments for thermoelectric interface materials, reviews relevant data available in the literature for CNT films, and characterizes the thermal properties of vertically aligned multiwalled CNTs grown on a candidate thermoelectric material. Nanosecond thermoreflectance thermometry provides thermal property data for 1.5-μm-thick CNT films on SiGe. The thermal interface resistances between the CNT film and surrounding materials are the dominant barriers to thermal transport, ranging from 1.4 m2 K MW−1 to 4.3 m2 K MW−1. The volumetric heat capacity of the CNT film is estimated to be 87 kJ m−3 K−1, which corresponds to a volumetric fill fraction of 9%. The effect of 100 thermal cycles from 30°C to 200°C is also studied. These data provide the groundwork for future studies of thermoelectric materials in contact with CNT films serving as both a thermal and electrical interface.

I have been experimenting with NextGen lately and like it a lot. I do have a question though I have not been able to find an answer for online so far.
Suppose I have a gallery with 3 pages with 12 thumbnails on each page. When I open a picture on the first pages it opens the Shutter box and below the picture is picture x of 12.
Would it be possible to have the Shutter browse all images of the entire gallery and not just the thumbnail page you opened it from? So it would read picture x of 36?

Drug testing inmates ?
Posted in the Mount Sterling Forum
#1 Jul 5, 2012
Do they drug test all jail inmates comming in??
#2 Jul 5, 2012
#3 Jul 5, 2012
yes they do and you have to pay for the test.
United States
#4 Jul 5, 2012
They need to drug test them when their in jail also. The drugs get in the jail also. They need to search their body better.
#5 Jul 5, 2012
test um coming in and going out!
#6 Jul 5, 2012
yes they do test everyone who comes in. if you were arrested for something other than drugs or dui etc it doesn't matter it is just for a survey for the state.
#7 Jul 5, 2012
If they test positive, do they get charged for being under the influence too?
#8 Jul 5, 2012
good question!
#9 Jul 5, 2012
survey for the state?
#10 Jul 6, 2012
Just a thought....if you are arrested and found to have illegal drugs in your system you should be charged...also if you are dependant on the government for your living, your check stops here! Same goes for the ones arrested for selling if convicted....and use their check and pay for their jail and rehab....just a thought
#11 Jul 6, 2012
yea, if i used on the job i would be fired and lose my check!!!
United States
#12 Jul 6, 2012
I know when they go to prison they loose check, but if in jail and they draw food stamps they still get them, and when they get out they have stamps saved up but some still sell them while in jail an have the person who sell them put money in their jail account. The system should have a better tracking system. They can create more jobs to have people monitor who in jail an make sure they loose their ben
#13 Jul 13, 2012
Not everyone that goes in the jail are druggies, some people have legit medical condition that require narcotic. First tell me how a deputy is qualified to gather a sample and the proper procedures to follow. How do they even know the sample you renderer is from the person giving the sample. Drug test are to be administered by qualified professional not the jail staff. The text they have there are just cheap tests to check for trace amout and that test is usually only about 8-10 percent effective. It's actually a violation of an incarcerated inmate to be tested without a court order. And the booking fee, that's another one, once and inmate has been released per the judge they can not still detain you for not paying the booking fee. That is unconstitutional and false imprisonment on the jails behalf. It will take some time but in due time it will come out in the wash and it won't be good for MCRJ. That place is filthy and inhumane in all sence of the word. If enough people band together they could put a stop to it. There's more criminals behind the badge that make the shit going on in the street and the people doing it look like alter boys!

#15 Jul 14, 2012
If a person is prescribed a narcotic and the jailed person has the correct amount in their system...no problem...Seems you know alot about the law or breaking the law....sorry the jail dosent meet your requirments...my advice...STAY OUT OF JAIL...ITS JAIL DUDE NOT A HOTEL....GET A REAL LIFE BROTHER....
United States
#16 Jul 14, 2012
It's not suppose to be a place you want to revisit! I think they need to make it worse! Then maybe the one's that break the law will think before they do it again. DUH!
United States
#17 Jul 14, 2012
@ notallthesame, I think that was well said! I have not been to jail but I agree that it is unconstitutional, where does it stop! I mean look at Myers, he stole the money from the drug test who is to say he couldn't fix the results too! I think the judges need a drug test, we would have less judges, let's just say that!
#18 Jul 14, 2012
I think our judicial system should be no different than any other system...random drug test them all...especially our judges...no one is above the law...who knows we may be supprised or not....
#19 Jul 14, 2012
@comeon , I would say we won't be very surprised! I know for sure of one judge here, who has and continues to do drugs! It is ridiculous that we all look the other way when it comes to them but love to jump on all the little people! Some things are just common sense, drug test everyone who works at the courthouse, jail etc. and see what the results are, I would say there would be a lot of job openings!
#20 Jul 18, 2012
U r so right, evem Mr.Jones he is not doing ne better than Dewayne, in fact at least Dewayne would allow u to call ur family if u had no money and also he has no ideal what due process of the law means and has not a clue about inmates rigjts, yes they didn't get there by been good but they still have rights after all this is America, the inmates r having to take showers with torn up sheets, now Jones where is all that money ur saving going?

This photo has an absolutely perfect balance of sharpness and softness. The movement of the clouds and water if very soft and calming (as it should be) but the dock is very sharp, and shows a lot of detail, which I personally tend to lose when shooting long exposures so congratulations on achieving that! Love all the colors, and the lighting is fabulous Very nice photo.
So beautiful xx
Beautiful shot. Great colors. I suggest trying the same exact thing, but with a slightly longer exposure, just to get that frothy look of the water longer exposures impart.
Stunning shot! this is beautiful.
yes. u r amazing
why did you watermark it drew nelson, and then say it's copyrighted to drew hopper...?
Stunning shot anyhow :]
Stunning shot anyhow :]
My middle name is Nelson so I use that in my watermarks, I will change the copyright to match it, thanks
Man, you've been doing some different things lately. I'm likin' it. Sticking with the cool waterscapes, but introducing new and colorful elements into the mix. I really like how the railing is lit up and the clouds and the water are this beautiful blue pastel color.
Beautiful colors!
Wow, this is an awesome shot!

I just did my hospital tour yesterday, which really got me thinking more about labor and actually picturing the whole process.Ā I've been taking a Bradley class, but actually seeing the rooms where I'll deliver really put things in perspective.Ā I can't believe how close it's getting!
Anyway, I've been thinking about what positions I might want to use during labor, and I really think I would like squatting.Ā I've learned it opens you up more and makes it easier for the baby to get through without as much risk of tearing.Ā I have pretty strong legs and I do squats everyday, but just from watching videos of moms who delivered this way, it does look very tiring!
Does anyone have experience with squatting during delivery?Ā Or any other positions?Ā What did you like/didn't like?

OVER a period of 10 days five of 28 children in one unit of the Children's Hospital became acutely ill with fever and severe diarrhea. This unit consisted of six small wards, of four and five cubicles each. These five children had been admitted to the hospital 8, 8, 9, 30 and 135 days previously because of some other condition not referable to the gastrointestinal tract. The five patients were in four wards of four cubicles each. Two patients were in the first and third cubicles in one ward; the three other patients were in three separate wards. According to the order in which intestinal symptoms developed in these patients, they had been in the hospital 30, 8, 135, 8 and 9 days.
Cultures taken of stools at the onset of symptoms were positive for Shigella sonnei. Each patient was isolated as soon as the result of the stool cultures

Quarterly Report
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements
The Company has included in this Quarterly Report certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 concerning the Company's business, operations and financial condition. "Forward-looking statements" consist of all non-historical information, and the analysis of historical information, including the references in this Quarterly Report to future revenues, collaborative agreements, future expense growth, future credit exposure, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, future profitability, anticipated cash resources, anticipated capital expenditures, capital requirements, and the Company's plans for future periods. In addition, the words "could", "expects", "anticipates", "objective", "plan", "may affect", "may depend", "believes", "estimates", "projects" and similar words and phrases are also intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Such factors include the risk factors included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2011 and other factors discussed in connection with any forward-looking statement.
Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the Company's forward-looking statements due to numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including, among other things, the Company's ability to raise capital unanticipated technological difficulties, the length, scope and outcome of our clinical trial, costs related to intellectual property, cost of manufacturing and higher consulting costs, product demand, changes in domestic and foreign economic, market and regulatory conditions, the inherent uncertainty of financial estimates and projections, the uncertainties involved in certain legal proceedings, instabilities arising from terrorist actions and responses thereto, and other considerations described as "Risk Factors" in other filings by the Company with the SEC. Such factors may also cause substantial volatility in the market price of the Company's Common Stock. All such forward-looking statements are current only as of the date on which such statements were made. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which any such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Our common stock trades on the Over-the-Counter Marketplace under the ticker symbol ADXS.OB.
We are a development stage biotechnology company with the intent to develop safe and effective cancer vaccines that utilize multiple mechanisms of immunity. We are developing a live Listeria vaccine technology under license from the University of Pennsylvania ("Penn") which secretes a protein sequence containing a tumor-specific antigen. We believe this vaccine technology is capable of stimulating the body's immune system to process and recognize the antigen as if it were foreign, generating an immune response able to attack the cancer. We believe this to be a broadly enabling platform technology that can be applied to the treatment of many types of cancers, infectious diseases and auto-immune disorders. In addition, this technology supports among other things the immune response by altering tumors to make them more susceptible to immune attack stimulating the development of specific blood cells that underlie a strong therapeutic immune response.
We have no customers. Since our inception in 2002, we have focused our development efforts upon understanding our technology and establishing a product development pipeline that incorporates this technology in the therapeutic cancer vaccines area targeting cervical, head and neck, prostate, breast, and a pre-cancerous indication of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, which we refer to as CIN. Although no products have been commercialized to date, research and development and investment continues to be placed behind the pipeline and the advancement of this technology. Pipeline development and the further exploration of the technology for advancement entail risk and expense. We anticipate that our ongoing operational costs will increase significantly as we continue our four Phase II clinical trials that started this fiscal year.
We did not record any revenue for the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses increased by approximately $225,000 or 11% to approximately $2,213,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2012 as compared with approximately $1,988,000 for the same period a year ago principally attributable to clinical trial expenses increasing significantly resulting from the continuation of our clinical trials in the United States and India as well as expenses related to the initiation of clinical trial studies related to cervical and prostate cancer. In addition, overall compensation expense was higher in the current period resulting from additional employees, increased stock-based compensation and increases in salaries.
We anticipate continued increases in R&D expenses as a result of expanded development efforts primarily related to clinical trials and product development. In addition, expenses will be incurred in the development of strategic and other relationships required to license, manufacture and distribute our product candidates.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $49,000 or 5%, to approximately $1,031,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2012 as compared with approximately $982,000 for the same period a year ago. This was the result of higher overall compensation expense resulting from increased stock-based compensation, severance paid to a former employee and higher office and related expenses in the current period resulting from the relocation of the Company's operations to Princeton, NJ in April 2011. These increases were offset by a decrease in noncash warrant expense in the current period when compared with the same period a year ago.
Interest Expense
For the three months ended January 31, 2012, interest expense increased to approximately $1,617,000 from approximately $532,000 primarily due to the sale of convertible promissory notes in May, October and December 2011. Additionally, the debt discounts related to the original fair values of both warrants and embedded derivatives are amortized to interest expense over the life of these convertible promissory notes.
Interest Income was $0 as compared with approximately $54,000 in the same period a year ago. We record all interest earned on Optimus promissory notes to equity in accordance with ASC 505 10-45. The Optimus promissory notes are classified in the equity section of the balance sheet as a promissory note receivable.
Other income was approximately $7,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2012 as compared with other expenses of approximately $17,000 in the same period a year ago as a result of favorable changes in foreign exchange rates relating to transactions with certain vendors.
Gain on Note Retirement
For the three months ended January 31, 2012, we recorded non-cash expense of approximately $697,000 mainly resulting from the conversion of some convertible promissory notes by investors, into shares of our common stock in addition to the exchange by an investor of 2007 warrants that contained anti-dilution provisions, for a larger number of warrants with no anti-dilution provisions in addition to the conversion of some bridge notes into shares of the Company's common stock
Changes in Fair Values
For the three months ended January 31, 2012, the Company recorded income from changes in the fair value of the warrant liability and embedded derivative liability of approximately $840,000 compared with income of approximately $3.8 million in same period a year ago. In the current period, the increase in income of approximately $840,000 resulted from a decrease in the Black-Scholes value of each liability warrant due to a smaller range of share prices used in the calculation of the BSM Model volatility input somewhat offset by a slight increase in our share price over the three months ended January 31, 2012.
For the three months ended January 31, 2011, the Company recorded income resulting from a decrease in the Black-Scholes value of each liability warrant due to a smaller range of share prices used in the calculation of the BSM Model volatility input in addition to a slight decrease in our share price for the three months ended January 31, 2011.
Potential future increases or decreases in our stock price will result in increased or decreased warrant and embedded derivative liabilities, respectively, on our balance sheet and therefore increased or decreased expenses being recognized in our statement of operations in future periods.
Income Tax Benefit
In the three months ended January 31, 2012, the income tax benefit was approximately $347,000 due to the receipt of a NOL tax credit from the State of New Jersey tax program compared to approximately $379,000 in NOL tax credits received from the State of New Jersey tax program in the three months ended January 31, 2011.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since our inception through January 31, 2012, the Company has reported accumulated net losses of approximately $39.9 million and recurring negative cash flows from operations. We anticipate that we will continue to generate significant losses from operations for the foreseeable future.
Cash used in operating activities, for the three months ending January 31, 2012,
was approximately $2.1 million, primarily as a result of the following:
increased R&D spending on clinical trials and higher general and administrative spending.
Cash used in investing activities, for the three months ended January 31, 2012, was approximately $126,000 resulting from spending in support of our intangible assets (patents) and costs paid to the University of Pennsylvania for patents.
Cash provided by financing activities, for the three months ended January 31, 2012, was approximately $1.7 million, resulting from net proceeds received from the sale of convertible promissory notes ($1.3 million) and the exercise of warrants (approximately $412,000).
The Company issued convertible promissory notes (December 2011 Offering) in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $1.2 million (net cash received of approximately $1 million) during the three months ended January 31, 2012. During the three months ended January 31, 2012, the Company paid approximately $53,000 in principal value on its Bridge Notes. (See Note #6)
During the three months ended January 31, 2012, the Company repaid $35,000 in principal on a convertible secured debenture from an Officer of the Company.
Our limited capital resources and operations to date have been funded primarily with the proceeds from public and private equity and debt financings, NOL tax sales and income earned on investments and grants. We have sustained losses from operations in each fiscal year since our inception, and we expect losses to continue for the indefinite future, due to the substantial investment in research and development. As of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, we had an accumulated deficit of $39,897,284 and $35,531,740, respectively and shareholders' deficiency of $11,058,318 and $12,279,713, respectively.
During the three months ended January 31, 2012, the Company sold $1.2 million of Convertible promissory notes for a net purchase price of $1.0 million and received cash from warrant exercises in the amount of approximately $412,000. The cash was used to reduce overdue payables and finance day to day operations.
Based on our available cash, we do not have adequate cash on hand to cover our anticipated expenses for the next 12 months. If we fail to raise a significant amount of capital, we may need to significantly curtail operations in the near future. These conditions raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Consequently, the audit report prepared by our independent public accounting firm relating to our financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2011 included a going concern explanatory paragraph.
Our business will require substantial additional investment that we have not yet secured, and our failure to raise capital and/or pursue partnering opportunities will materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We expect to spend substantial additional sums beyond our recent capital raises on the continued administration and research and development of proprietary products and technologies, including conducting clinical trials for our product candidates, with no certainty that our products will become commercially viable or profitable as a result of these expenditures. Further, we will not have sufficient resources to develop fully any new products or technologies unless we are able to raise substantial additional financing on acceptable terms or secure funds from new partners. We cannot be assured that additional financing will be available at all. Any additional investments or resources required would be approached, to the extent appropriate in the circumstances, in an incremental fashion to attempt to cause minimal disruption or dilution. Any additional capital raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our existing stockholders. However, no assurances can be given, however, that we will be able to achieve these goals or that we will be able to continue as a going concern
We are pursuing additional investments, grants, partnerships as well as collaborations and exploring other financing options, with the objective of minimizing dilution and disruption.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of January 31, 2012, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting and New Accounting Pronouncements
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures in the financial statements. Management considers an accounting estimate to be critical if:
� It requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the
estimate was made, and
� Changes in the estimate of difference estimates that could have been selected could have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.
Actual results could differ from those estimates and the differences could be material. The most significant estimates impact the following transactions or account balances: stock compensation, liabilities, warrant valuation, impairment of intangibles and fixed assets and projected operating results.
Share-Based Payments - We record compensation expense associated with stock options in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 718, Stock Compensation (formerly, FASB Statement 123R). We adopted the modified prospective transition method provided under SFAS No. 123R. Under this transition method, compensation expense associated with stock options recognized in the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, and in subsequent quarters, includes expense related to the remaining unvested portion of all stock option awards granted prior to April 1, 2006, the estimated fair value of each option award granted was determined on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123.
We estimate the value of stock options awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model. The determination of the fair value of the share-based payment awards on the date of grant is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, expected term, risk-free interest rate, expected dividends and expected forfeiture rates. The forfeiture rate is estimated using historical option cancellation information, adjusted for anticipated changes in expected exercise and employment termination behavior. Our outstanding awards do not contain market or performance conditions; therefore we have elected to recognize share based employee compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
If factors change and we employ different assumptions in the application of ASC 718 in future periods, the compensation expense that we record under ASC 718 relative to new grants may differ significantly from what we have recorded in the current period. There is a high degree of subjectivity involved when using option-pricing models to estimate share-based compensation under ASC 718. Consequently, there is a risk that our estimates of the fair values of our share-based compensation awards on the grant dates may bear little resemblance to the actual values realized upon the exercise, expiration, early termination or forfeiture of those share-based payments in the future. Employee stock options may expire worthless or otherwise result in zero intrinsic value as compared to the fair values originally estimated on the grant date and reported in our financial statements. Alternatively, value may be realized from these instruments that are significantly in excess of the fair values originally estimated on the grant date and reported in our financial statements.
Warrants were issued in connection with the equity financings completed in October 2007, the preferred equity financing with Optimus, our Bridge Notes issued from June 2009 through May 2011 and convertible promissory notes issued in the May, October and December 2011 offerings. At issuance, we estimate the fair value of these instruments using the Black-Scholes model, which takes into account a variety of factors, including historical stock price volatility, risk-free interest rates, remaining term and the closing price of our common stock. For those warrants classified as liabilities on the balance sheet, we estimate their fair value at each subsequent balance sheet date. Changes in assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these derivative instruments could result in a material change in the fair value of the instruments. We believe the assumptions used to estimate the fair values of the warrants are reasonable.
As of January 31, 2012, we had outstanding warrants (including 25,560,000 warrants owned by Optimus as part of the Series B purchase agreement) to purchase 140,976,812 shares of our common stock (adjusted for anti-dilution provisions to-date). Approximately 102.6 million of these warrants (including Optimus) are classified as liabilities on the balance sheet. Approximately 38.3 million of these warrants are classified as equity on the balance sheet. Substantially all warrants have an exercise price of $0.15 per share.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

To understand why public em- ployees in Ohio don't want you, the private sector taxpayers, to know how much they're receiving or will receive in retirement payments, consider these eye-popping facts: Last year, about 1,100 State Teachers Retirement System members received on average $67,000 in pension pay while returning to work and earning $70,000 to $100,000 in their post-retirement jobs at school districts; about 32,000 state and local employees collected more than $1 billion in pension payouts last year in addition to the money they're earning as double-dippers; the pension cost to local governments in the state is $4.1 billion a year, and the number will grow by $604 million to $768 million over the next five years.
Who are the beneficiaries of this largess? State law prohibits Ohio's five public pension systems from disclosing pertinent details about individual retirees. How much did the worker contribute toward his or her pension and how much did the taxpayers shell out? It's a secret. How many years did a public employee work before being able to draw a pension? It's a secret. Indeed, who is getting the pension benefit? That, too, is secret.
In Ohio, nearly 400,000 public retirees receive benefits from the five systems, and Ohioans now pay more than $4 billion a year toward those benefits. To be sure, public employees also contribute, but it's the non-public taxpayers' dollars that are prompting complaints about the secrecy.
If we're paying toward public employees' pensions, we have a right to know everything about their benefits. Pension records of public employees should not be shrouded from public view.
On Jan. 3, the Ohio Newspaper Organization made up of eight papers, including The Vindicator, reported the results of a statewide survey of Ohio's pension funds in several news stories. That package was followed last Sunday by stories about the widely used "retire, rehire" provision in the law that has enabled thousands of public employees to work in public positions and collect pensions at the same time.
Common thread
The entire investigative package had a common thread running through it: A significant number of public employees in the state of Ohio are looking forward to annual pensions higher than what most working Ohioans earn and full medical coverage.
But here's a reality check for the hundreds of thousands of current and prospective pensioners who are worried about the financial stability of the pension plans: The taxpayers of Ohio will not agree to $325 million more in public dollars being used to shore up the various systems.
State legislators who also are eligible for public pensions should quickly disabuse themselves of the notion that public employees have a right to expect their retirement benefits to be guaranteed when Social Security, which most taxpayers depend on, faces insolvency.
If Ohio's five pension funds are facing future challenges, let the beneficiaries pay to ensure stability.
As for lifting the veil of secrecy, the lobbying power of public employees and the legislators' own self interest make that a long shot.
I have never been a fan of double-dipping, nor the retire/rehire system in place. It leads to nepotism. Frequently, lack of qualified candidates is cited as a response to questioning the practice. How are candidates supposed to become qualified if the door never opens to them?
I do not agree, however, that the practice is totally secretive. People attending a board of education meeting can garner this information. A simple review of board minutes compared with staff lists can shed light on who receives this benefit.
I do take issue with the Vindicator expressing that public employees don't have a right to their retirement simply because Social Security will likely become insolvent. Two wrongs do not make a right. If someone breaks into your neighbor's house and robs them, you should not simply expect them to do so to your house or accept it when it happens. The failure of the federal government and its elected officials over decades to fix social security is NOT the responsibility of the public employees who pay into their own retirement funds alongside the taxpayer. Please don't forget that this cost is shared.
....and many of these evil public employees pay a whole lot more into retirement than people think.
How about an example?
All of the contracts that we have seen from Boardman Township employees show that all contributions toward retirement are paid by the township. Very little toward the Health care, we have also seen comments where the copay's are reimbursed in another give back
How about the accumulated vacation and sick days at retirement? What a windfall the taxpayer has to shell over to just get the dead weight from the payroll.
Anybody have any others. I am sure there is more.
Rokscout don't try and make this into we all see you public troughers as evil. We only see an increasing tax grab to cover the largess given away in so called contract negotiations, yeah Huh that is a stretch calling them negotiations.
Some organizations have an arrangement to reduce salary by the employee's pension contribution amount, which is then paid directly to the retirement system. As "pre-tax dollars", they will be taxed at a lower rate when actually withdrawn. It gives the appearance that the employee contribution is actually paid by the employer.
This is only a disguise to the fact that they were supposedly not getting any raises, when the raises were not a good political idea at the time and the fact that the taxpaying public would not stand for.
Then only getting the raises, and signing bonuses and retroactive contracts later.
These things along with a myriad of other complicated job reclassification's and other smoke and mirror tricks. Like letting the arbitrator make the decisions for the politicians and Unions so nobody could point the finger at either? All to keep the taxpayer out of the loop, and ignorant to the facts.
Just like the veil of secrecy described above.
Sweeeeet!! Deal Huh?
So what you are telling me is Boardman Township employees don't contribute to their pensions then? Is this fact?
Don't group all Public Workers together, each is backed by a different management group. Some workers have NOT received a raise in I don't know how long. They contribute a lot of money into their funds and they pay for their medical.
Great point Cbf
"We only see an increasing tax grab to cover the largess given away in so called contract negotiations, yeah Huh that is a stretch calling them negotiations."
You have no idea what concessions have been made within those contracts. True, raises may be given, but employee contributions to health care coverage may have gone up. Benefits may have been slashed. There's a larger picture that the public misses because they aren't at the table.
If you are unhappy with the deals garnered by your elected officials, replace them. Run yourself if you have all the answers.
"How about the accumulated vacation and sick days at retirement? What a windfall the taxpayer has to shell over to just get the dead weight from the payroll."
So I guess what you are saying is that workers should go ahead and take all those days instead of coming in to work.
ok...So a comment is made "many of these evil public employees pay a whole lot more into retirement than people think that the do." ....Why am I paying for any of a state employees retirment fund...that's BS. If I have to save into my 401k & Roth IRA's...then heck all of you should be responsible for paying your own way...and not on my dime. I bet these are the same individuals who complain about this socialist society...I say everyone should pay there own way. That is what is wrong w/ society now to many hands out and not enough people taking on there own responsibility. Don't get me started!
Well babs, based on your comment, I guess the civil service exam was just out of reach. If you work for an employer that matches your 401k contributions, and then covers that cost by increasing the price of whatever service or product you are offering, then someone out there is paying for...gasp...YOUR retirement too. On the other hand, if you work for an employer who offers no benefits such as fund matching or contributing, then I guess that is your poor choice and you are just going to have to iron out these jealousy issues somewhere else.
babs... If you pay into PERS for your whole career you do not qualify for SS. You have to work in the private sector after you retire to collect it. Who do you think is paying for everyone on SSI and welfare. We ALL are. Don't you dare use a Employer matched 401K or Employer medical coverage they get tax deductions and that is coming out of my pocket.
I call only speak for Teachers. we are required to pay 10% of our pay to our retirement and like in the private sector our employeer matches that much. So, babs68 , we pay for our own. The law also allows us to contribute to 403bs. We as teachers in the state of Ohio CANNOT, I REPEAT CANNOT collect SS unless we work in the private sector for the required period of time. However, our SS would be cut becuase of our pension.
Upon retirement, we have to pay some where between $1000 to $2500 a month for healthcare. its not part of a package

Cancer Health Center
Testicular Cancer Survivors Still at Risk
New Cancer Risk May Be Lower Today
It was not clear from the study how big a role treatment played in emergence of these other cancers. Although radiation treatment doses have been decreased, bladder, stomach, and pancreatic cancers have been associated with radiation treatment in past studies.
The authors say given the modification in treatment that results in lower radiation doses these solid tumors will probably have less of an impact on the lives of testicular cancer survivors. Careful follow-up is needed in these men to quantify long-term risk. Researchers say that treatment probably explains most of the increased secondary cancer risk.
"It appears that the risks are somewhat lower with the treatments we are giving today than they were with conventional therapies from a few decades ago," study co-author Charles F. Lynch, MD, PhD, tells WebMD.
Lynch is a professor of epidemiology at the University of Iowa College of Public Health.
"We don't have the long-term follow-up to know for sure. We probably need to wait for some more time to pass to understand the risks associated with the newer treatments."
That means testicular cancer survivors must be followed carefully for the rest of their lives, says Herman Kattlove, MD, of the American Cancer Society.
He says many young cancer survivors don't know they are at increased risk or ignore the risk after cancer treatment.
"They go off to school, or they get married, or move somewhere and they forget about it," he tells WebMD. "They need to be made aware that even though their testicular cancer is gone, and they are almost certainly cured, they still need to be careful in terms of lifestyle and they need to see their doctors regularly."

Business; To Learn What People Want, Trade 'Idea Stocks'
By BARNABY J. FEDER
Published: February 10, 2002
SOUTH POMFRET, Vt.— BUSINESS students from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology participating in a mock stock exchange at a vacation lodge here last month received instant feedback. As the 30 or so traders pecked away tensely on their network of laptop computers, sighs and nervous giggles signaled the gyrating value of their portfolios.
Except for its unusually informal setting, the exercise resembled the kind of simulated trading of stocks or bonds that is routine in the finance curriculum at many business schools.
But this was a marketing class conducted by Ely Dahan, a professor at M.I.T.'s Sloan School of Business. The students were not trading securities but the traits of various goods and services, like automobiles and ski resorts. The exercise was part of an effort by Professor Dahan and colleagues at M.I.T. to prove that simulated trading could answer that most basic of all product development questions: What do consumers want?
One session here traded ''stocks'' representing the Pontiac Aztek, Acura MDX and other rivals in the new market segment that melds sport utility vehicles, minivans and cars. The students also traded the characteristics of ski resorts -- whether skiers could drive to the resort or had to fly to it, for example, and whether it had crowded slopes. Other sessions focused on designs for laptop-computer carrying cases and variations on hand-held digital assistants.
In as little as 20 minutes, the students arrived at fairly stable rankings of the relative worth of what they were trading. More intriguingly, as was driven home by interviews with skiers nearby at Mount Killington, the relative values arrived at through the trading closely paralleled consumer preferences divined much more laboriously through traditional field research.
''It's amazing that you can get effective results in areas where people don't know that much,'' said Jay Livens, an M.I.T. student, after Professor Dahan showed the outcomes of their vehicle trading.
The closing prices were generally consistent both with consumer sentiments culled from more traditional market research and with previous trading experiments at M.I.T. In just minutes, for example, the trading echoed the disappointment with the Aztek and enthusiasm for the MDX demonstrated by car buyers over the last year. ''General Motors might have been able to save itself a lot of pain if it had run trading like this a couple of years ago,'' Professor Dahan said.
To participants, market research had never seemed so cool.
''I feel like we are at the genesis of a potentially great idea,'' said Kristina Larson, a first-year student.
IN real markets, the value that buyers place on goods -- reflected in prices -- is established as a byproduct of the exchange of goods. In Professor Dahan's markets, buyers' opinions are the whole point of the exercise. If the operations of regular markets are like fishing for food, then Professor Dahan's work is like fishing to gather data about pollution levels in the ocean.
Professor Dahan's research was inspired by the successes of several Internet-based trading exchanges that have been called ''decision markets'' by Robin Hanson, an economics professor at George Mason University. The most renowned one, the Iowa Electronic Markets, has often outperformed pollsters in predicting election results. The market, operated by the Henry B. Tippie College of Business at the University of Iowa, permits investors to buy and sell shares in a candidate, based either on how much of the vote they expect the candidate to receive or simply on whether the candidate will win or lose. Participants can invest up to $500 under a special clearance from the Securities and Exchange Commission that protects the market from being charged with illegal sponsorship of gambling.
Another virtual market, the Hollywood Stock Exchange (www.hsx.com), has become one of the movie industry's most trusted predictors of how new films will perform at the box office. The exchange has more than 850,000 registered members. After completing the free registration form, traders get two million ''Hollywood dollars'' to play with. Movies are listed as soon as the exchange hears of plans to make them, and investors project how well they expect them to perform in their first four weeks at the box office. Each Hollywood dollar equals $1 million of film revenue.
If a film is trading based on expectations that it will gross $80 million in its first four weeks, investors who think it will reach $100 million buy shares. Those who anticipate weaker results sell.
The Hollywood Stock Exchange, owned by a British subsidiary of Cantor Fitzgerald, the Wall Street firm, sells data about the trading to entertainment companies.
Several companies have experimented internally with similar trading programs. The most successful experiment, Professor Hanson said, was at Hewlett-Packard in 1997. Predictions of Unix workstation sales, derived from trading shares in different projections by Hewlett-Packard sales managers, repeatedly proved more accurate than official estimates by the unit's marketing group. The trading apparently filtered out the tendency of sales executives to be optimistic in their projections to superiors.

Anyone want to take a look at my website and let me know what you think?
Anyone want to take a look at my website and let me know what you think?
I like it! Very nice photos! I'm not a huge fan of the scrolling bar on the bottom and I thought the left sidebar looked too generic - not what you'd expect for the quality of photos! You have talent! But overall the links worked fine, the photos are fantastic, and it's definitely a good start. You have over 4,000 likes already! How'd you do that?
Thanks Tammie,
As for the horizontal scroll, I think that is just a photographers thing, cause I love it, and most photographers and art directors do too...but its a personal preference.
And the theme I built my theme off of had a sidebar that was incredible generic, so in order to make my site a little prettier, I thought the transparency and making it static helped to stand out a bit from the rest. There is not alot I can do on that front, or nothing I can think of atleast, to pretty it up.
And thanks for looking at my work, I'm glad you like it. I've been at it for a long time, and a bit of a wiz when it comes to marketing, so that is how I have been able to get so many Likes on FB.
Well if you have marketing pointers, I'm all ears! I agree about the horizontal scroll, I have seen it a lot on photography sites, like you mentioned. It's a great start! Especially with all those likes already - I'm jealous! hehe
I mean, for marketing, I'm a firm believe to promote yourself whenever possible, and post interesting content.
If I get a friend request from someone, I have a tendency to write on their wall, thanking them for the FR, and ask that they go look at my work and like my page if they like what they see.
It usually will get them to like it, and one or two of their FB friends as well. You gotta shamelessly self promote yourself from time to time :-)
Excellent site! I like the horizontal scrolling a lot. But yes, maybe the only thing up for a change is the menu. Other then that, very good work!
Very nice site. I like the horizontal scroll but to me, it is a bit slow. I think that there is a fine line between the right speed and so slow that people lose interest. I found it a bit too slow to want to wait. Since scrolling is controlled by the buttons, you might want to speed it up just a little. The visitor can always stop it where they want.
I visited your site before reading the above comments, and was sitting waiting for your pictures to slide automatically, then I clicked back and read the comments. I went back and saw the horizontal scroll bar. I don't know if others will find the problem, or maybe I am just daft. The site is lovely and your photos are gorgeous. Once I worked out how it works, I was impressed. It would be better if the scroll buttons weren't over your menu though? Overall great site!

I'm not looking for a windows explorer alternative. I like it, and it does its job well.
However, the one thing I'm missing from it, is the function to filter the filenames by a specified criteria. For example,
*visual*.pdf would show me all files which are of PDF kind, and have the "visual" in their filename.
Does anyone perhaps know of a plugin/extension ... for windows explorer which enables this kind of thing ?

Single-Dose Drug Decreases Bone Loss in Newly Treated HIV »
"Just one dose of zoledronic acid given at the start of antiretroviral therapy (ART) may prevent ART-associated bone loss during the first 48 weeks of therapy, according to a study published online May 18 in Clinical Infectious Diseases."...

(lamivudine) tablets & oral solution
What is the most important information I should know about EPIVIR?
EPIVIR can cause serious side effects, including:
- Build-up of an acid in your
blood (lactic acidosis). Lactic acidosis can happen in some people who take EPIVIR.
Lactic acidosis is a serious medical emergency that can cause death. Call
your healthcare provider right away if you get any of the following symptoms
that could be signs of lactic acidosis:
- feel very weak or tired
- feel cold, especially in your arms and legs
- unusual (not normal) muscle pain
- feel dizzy or light-headed
- trouble breathing
- have a fast or irregular heartbeat
- stomach pain with nausea and vomiting
- Serious liver problems can happen in people who take EPIVIR. In some cases these
serious liver problems can lead to death. Your liver may become large
(hepatomegaly) and you may develop fat in your liver (steatosis). Call your
healthcare provider right away if you get any of the following signs or
symptoms of liver problems:
- your skin or the white part of your eyes turns yellow (jaundice)
- loss of appetite for several days or longer
- nausea
- dark or "tea-colored" urine
- pain, aching, or tenderness on the right side of your stomach area
- light-colored stools (bowel movements)
You may be more likely to get lactic acidosis or serious liver problems if you are female, very overweight (obese), or have been taking nucleoside analog medicines for a long time.
- Worsening of hepatitis B
virus in people who have HIV-1 infection. If you have HIV-1 (Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1) and
hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, your HBV may get worse (flareup) if you stop
taking EPIVIR. A "flare-up" is when your HBV infection suddenly returns in a
worse way than before. Worsening liver disease can be serious and may lead to
- Do not run out of EPIVIR. Refill your prescription or talk to your healthcare provider before your EPIVIR is all gone.
- Do not stop EPIVIR without first talking to your healthcare provider.
- If you stop taking EPIVIR, your healthcare provider will need to check your health often and do blood tests regularly for several months to check your liver.
- Resistant Hepatitis B Virus (HBV). If you have HIV-1 and hepatitis B, the hepatitis B virus can change (mutate) during your treatment with EPIVIR and become harder to treat (resistant).
- Use with interferon and ribavirin-based regimens. Worsening of liver disease that has caused death has happened in people infected with both HIV-1 and hepatitis C virus who are taking antiretroviral medicines and are also being treated for hepatitis C with interferon with or without ribavirin. If you are taking EPIVIR and interferon with or without ribavirin, tell your healthcare provider if you have any new symptoms.
What is EPIVIR?
EPIVIR is a prescription HIV-1 medicine used with other antiretroviral medicines to treat HIV-1 infection. HIV-1 is the virus that causes Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS).
EPIVIR tablets and oral solution (used to treat HIV-1 infection) contain a higher dose of the same active ingredient (lamivudine) than is in the medicine EPIVIR-HBV tablets and oral solution (used to treat HBV). If you have both HIV-1 and HBV, you should not use EPIVIR-HBV to treat your infections.
The safety and effectiveness of EPIVIR have not been established in children under 3 months of age.
When used with other antiretroviral medicines to treat HIV-1 infection, EPIVIR may help:
- reduce the amount of HIV-1 in your blood. This is called "viral load".
- increase the number of CD4+ (T) cells in your blood, which help fight off other infections.
Reducing the amount of HIV-1 and increasing the CD4+ (T) cells in your blood may help improve your immune system. This may reduce your risk of death or getting infections that can happen when your immune system is weak (opportunistic infections).
EPIVIR does not cure HIV-1 infection or AIDS. You must keep taking HIV-1 medicines to control HIV-1 infection and decrease HIV-related illnesses.
Avoid doing things that can spread HIV-1 infection to others:
- Do not share or re-use needles or other injection equipment.
- Do not share personal items that can have blood or body fluids on them, like toothbrushes and razor blades.
- Do not have any kind of sex without protection. Always practice safer sex by using a latex or polyurethane condom to lower the chance of sexual contact with any body fluids such as semen, vaginal secretions, or blood.
Ask your healthcare provider if you have any questions about how to prevent passing HIV to other people.
Who should not take EPIVIR?
Do not take EPIVIR if you are allergic to lamivudine or any of the ingredients in EPIVIR. See the end of this Patient Information leaflet for a complete list of ingredients in EPIVIR.
What should I tell my healthcare provider before taking EPIVIR?
Before you take EPIVIR, tell your healthcare provider if you:
- have or have had liver problems, including hepatitis B or C virus infection.
- have kidney problems.
- have diabetes. Each 15-mL dose (150 mg) of EPIVIR oral solution contains 3 grams of sucrose.
- are pregnant or plan to become
pregnant. Taking EPIVIR during pregnancy has not been associated with an
increased risk of birth defects. Talk to your healthcare provider if you are
pregnant or plan to become pregnant.
Pregnancy Registry. There is a pregnancy registry for women who take antiretroviral medicines during pregnancy. The purpose of this registry is to collect information about the health of you and your baby. Talk to your healthcare provider about how you can take part in this registry.
- are breastfeeding or plan to
breastfeed. Do not breastfeed if you take EPIVIR.
- You should not breastfeed if you have HIV-1 because of the risk of passing HIV-1 to your baby.
Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over-thecounter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.
Some medications interact with EPIVIR. Keep a list of your medicines to show your healthcare provider and pharmacist. You can ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist for a list of medicines that interact with EPIVIR. Do not start taking a new medicine without telling your healthcare provider. Your healthcare provider can tell you if it is safe to take EPIVIR with other medicines.
You should not take EPIVIR if you also take:
- lamivudine (COMBIVIR®, DUTREBIS™, EPIVIR-HBV®, EPZICOM®, TRIUMEQ®, or TRIZIVIR®)
- emtricitabine (EMTRIVA®, ATRIPLA®, COMPLERA®, STRIBILD®, TRUVADA®)
Tell your health care provider if you take:
- any other medicine to treat HIV-1
- medicines to treat hepatitis viruses such as interferon or ribavirin
How should I take EPIVIR?
- Take EPIVIR exactly as your healthcare provider tells you.
- Do not change your dose or stop taking EPIVIR without talking with your healthcare provider. If you miss a dose of EPIVIR, take it as soon as you remember. Do not take 2 doses at the same time. If you are not sure about your dosing, call your healthcare provider.
- Stay under the care of a healthcare provider while taking EPIVIR.
- EPIVIR may be taken with or without food.
- For children 3 months and older, your healthcare provider will prescribe a dose of EPIVIR based on your child's body weight.
- Tell your healthcare provider if you or your child has trouble swallowing tablets. EPIVIR also comes as a liquid (oral solution).
- Do not run out of EPIVIR. The virus in your blood may increase and the virus may become harder to treat. When your supply starts to run low, get more from your healthcare provider or pharmacy.
- If you take too much EPIVIR, call your healthcare provider or go to the nearest hospital emergency room right away.
What are the possible side effects of EPIVIR?
- EPIVIR can cause serious side effects including:
- See "What is the most important information I should know about EPIVIR?"
- Risk of inflammation of the
pancreas (pancreatitis). Children may be at risk for developing pancreatitis during
treatment with EPIVIR if they:
- have a history of pancreatitis
- have taken nucleoside analogue medicines
- have other risk factors for pancreatitis in the past
Call your healthcare provider right away if your child develops signs and symptoms of pancreatitis including severe upper stomach-area pain, with or without nausea and vomiting. Your healthcare provider may tell you to stop giving EPIVIR to your child if their symptoms and blood test results show that your child may have pancreatitis.
- Changes in your immune system (Immune Reconstitution Syndrome) can happen when you start taking HIV-1 medicines. Your immune system may get stronger and begin to fight infections that have been hidden in your body for a long time. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you start having new symptoms after you start taking EPIVIR.
- Changes in body fat can happen in people who take HIV-1 medicines. These changes may include an increased amount of fat in the upper back and neck ("buffalo hump"), breast, and around the middle of your body (trunk). Loss of fat from the legs, arms, and face may also happen. The exact cause and long-term health effects of these conditions are not known.
The most common side effects of EPIVIR in adults include:
- headache
- nasal signs and symptoms
- nausea
- diarrhea
- generally not feeling well
- cough
- tiredness
The most common side effects of EPIVIR in children include fever and cough.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have any side effect that bothers you or that does not go away.
These are not all the possible side effects of EPIVIR. For more information, ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
How should I store EPIVIR?
- Store EPIVIR tablets and oral solution at room temperature between 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C).
- Keep bottles of EPIVIR oral solution tightly closed.
Keep EPIVIR and all medicines out of the reach of children.
General information about the safe and effective use of EPIVIR.
Medicines are sometimes prescribed for purposes other than those listed in a Patient Information leaflet.
Do not use EPIVIR for a condition for which it was not prescribed. Do not give EPIVIR to other people, even if they have the same symptoms that you have. It may harm them.
If you would like more information, talk with your healthcare provider. You can ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist for information about EPIVIR that is written for health professionals.
For more information, go to www.viivhealthcare.com or call 1-877-844-8872.
