Last week, the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development (CSDD) at Tufts University released a report showing that the pharmaceutical industry has dramatically shifted its focus from a historical concentration on small molecule drugs to include an increasing number of biotechnology drugs. In a press release announcing the release of the Tufts CSDD Impact Report, the independent, academic, non-profit research group noted that biotech products, which in 2001 accounted for 7% of the revenue top 10 selling biopharm products worldwide, accounted for 71% of the top 10 selling products in 2012. Tufts CSDD Director Dr. Kenneth Kaitin explained that "[t]he transformation of Big Pharma has been driven as much by new technologies that have enabled development of new products that improve disease outcomes and command high prices, as by the expiring patents on many top-selling small molecule drugs."
The transformation of the pharma pipeline can be seen in the number of commercially available biotech drugs, which the report indicates rose from only 13 in 1989 to 210 by 2012, with worldwide sales growing by 353% from $36 billion in 2001 to $163 billion in 2012. The industry's R&D focus also shows evidence of the shift, with clinical trials of biotech products rising 155% from 355 in 2001 to 907 in 2012. The report indicates that in 2012, the 21 largest pharmaceutical companies had 429 biotech drugs in clinical development, and that 58% of these products were monoclonal antibodies. The report also notes that Big Pharma was involved in nearly 40% of biotech drug clinical development in 2012.
Biotech financing also showed a significant increase between 2001 and 2012, increasing from $10.5 billion to $103 billion over this period. Finally, the report compares biotech company acquisitions by Big Pharma in the 1998-2002 and 2008-2012 time frames, and notes that such acquisitions increased five-fold from 15 in the earlier time frame to 75 in the later time frame.
In view of the report's findings, Dr. Kaitin concluded that "[t]he notion that large pharmaceutical companies primarily develop small molecule drugs no longer holds."

After wowing on London's West End, and winning an Olivier to add to her Academy Award for playing Queen Elizabeth II, Helen Mirren dons the crown once again to bring The Audience to Broadway. Directed by Stephen Daldry and written by Peter Morgan, this luminous play imagines the private weekly meetings held between Her Majesty and the Prime Minister of the day, leading to some very interesting observations!
From 20 Oct 2015
Al Pacino makes his long-awaited return to Broadway in a brand-new play especially written for him by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright David Mamet. A frequent collaborator with Mamet, the two-time Tony-winning Pacino will originate the role of a semi-retired multi-millionaire, who has just bought an airplane for his much-younger fiancee. Just as he is about to leave the office one last time, his assistant (Fran Kranz) patches through a call. What transpires next will test the mettle of any person on the cusp of a life-changing event.

I've been thinking a lot lately about children.
On Faceook I've been reading about your children, your grandchildren, what life is like with them and how they changed your lives. It is amazing, isn't it, what the laughter of a child can do for your spirit? I look back at the pictures of my two sons when they were knee high to anybodies idea of a grasshopper, and I can't help but smile.
Sure, there were times when I didn't think I was going to survive their childhood … the broken bones, the not knowing where they were — and believe me, that five minutes was the longest five minutes in my life, Michael. I remember the things they got up to that made me want to pound my head against the wall one minute and hug the bugs out of them the next.
But you see, what brought me to this was something Arianna, my granddaughter, said to me the other day. She saw "the Purple People Eater" in the China closet and asked who had made it, her daddy or her Uncle Wallace. I remembered that it was her Uncle Wallace (her Daddy's brother) because one day he had remarked that I had his ugly little sculpture piece in with the "good stuff."
He didn't realize that what he called ugly I found wonderful, and it was as good as any "good" piece in the collection of "good stuff". At first glance it could look like an elephant, but on second glance the horns coming out of the top of the piece and the swirls of color on the squat square little body identify it for what it is. It's a Flying Purple People Eater. With one big eye. I have hand prints in the shape of turkeys from both the boys and shelves they made in the third and fourth grades. I have the homemade Christmas cards they made in Sunday School, the Mother's Day cards and the papers they wrote. Because they are precious to me. These were the things they did for us as they grew into themselves.
My sister Toni was telling me about a poem her son Alex had written her and put into a card he had made. She said he kept saying it wasn't good enough but since he had no money, it was the best he could do. Here is the poem written by Alex Bush to his mother. It's beautiful.
"A Time to Remember"
The first steps,
the teething
The years went by,
Like breathing,
The lessons went on,
Sown together, like weaving,
One day, I'll
Get up and go,
But never really leaving …
When I first read it, it brought tears to my eyes and a smile to my heart. But then I laughed and told Toni that he gets this talent from his Aunt Sandi. I'm only half joking. It makes me so proud to see the young people in our family use their God given talent to make the ones who love them, and whom they love, happy.
So, I urge you to keep that one chest available for the gifts from your children. They will mean even more to you when they're grown and on their own. You may have no idea what joy these little things can bring you years after the event. Just wait. The best is yet to come.

Task Force Releases Recommendations To Address Sea-Level Rise
Yesterday, the Miami-Dade Sea Level Rise Task Force released a report detailing six recommendations to the county.
The main recommendation calls on county officials to consult experts to create an infrastructure that can adapt to rising sea levels.
Jim Murley is the executive director of the South Florida Regional Planning Council, and was the vice-chairperson of the task force.
"I think it's important that the county work with the region and speak with one voice on these issue in Tallahassee and Washington D.C.," he says, "so that our specific needs are well understood in the state capital and in the national capital and when funds are available there, we get our fair share."
The task force also asks the county to address insurance concerns. Arsenio Milian owns a civil and environmental engineering firm and served on the task force.
"The insurance companies have made it clear that if this is something that is going to be happening more frequently that they will not be able to insure as we understand it to be today," he explains.
The county commission will review the recommendations.

Here are my two models I completed this year. I started getting back into this hobby in October and havent built anything since I was little. They are not perfect but I thought id share. Fujimi Porsche 930 Turbo ( a hard model to start out )and a Tamiya Ferrari Testarossa. I had some problems with the Ferrari getting the body to fit flush as you can see by the picture. But I enjoyed building both.

The use of celebrity endorsers such as Jarvik and football great Joe Montana, who was a pitchman for Lotrel, a drug to reduce high blood pressure, has also come under scrutiny for its potential to mislead viewers.
"But what is the evidence that [the celebrities] actually tried other medicines for treating the same problem at appropriate doses?" asked Dr. Sidney Wolf, the head of the health research group at Public Citizen. "My guess is no. For the average viewer, they would be able to get another drug that is equally effective, and equally safe, at a much lower price."
A spokesman for Pfizer issued a statement: "Pfizer takes its responsibility with regard to direct-to-consumer (DTC) advertising very seriously. Our foremost concern is that the tone and content are appropriate for the intended audiences, and that it will ultimately result in encouraging valuable patient/physician dialogue, that can lead to appropriate treatment.
"Pfizer recognizes the important role physicians play in helping patients better manage their health. Dr. Jarvik is a respected health care professional and heart expert. Dr. Jarvik, inventor of the Jarvik artificial heart, knows how imperative it is for patients to do everything they can to keep their heart working well. Furthermore, the advertising advises consumers to speak to their physicians about their heart health."

On three different nights, neighbors have been awaked by smoke and flames as old wooden apartment buildings were engulfed. Susan Sharon reports a pair of arrests after the first two fires has done nothing to ease people's fears.

Second, the committee recommends that the BLM study the adequacy of the Bush Dome reservoir as the reserves are depleted. Specific study tasks that should be considered include the following:
Determine the optimal size of a federal stockpile of crude helium.
Develop models of gas extraction at the Bush Dome reservoir to predict the helium content of future extracted gas.
Determine whether the quantity of gas that remains in the Bush Dome reservoir will be adequate to meet future federal needs in the event of a temporary drop in private production.
Reassess the pricing structure for the storage of helium at the Cliffside facility so that it more accurately reflects the value of the facility.
Finally, the committee recommends that the Department of the Interior conduct research and development to ensure the continued supply of helium into the future. Goals should include (1) new geological models and exploration technologies, (2) improved helium storage systems, and (3) enhanced technologies to conserve, recycle, and eventually replace helium. The following specific tasks should be considered:
Determine the geological characteristics and processes that permit the formation of helium-rich gas fields and develop methodologies and databases to assist in the discovery of these fields.
Identify potential sites for natural storage facilities to permit the establishment of new facilities near future major helium producers and to allow an increase in the storage and conservation capabilities of helium users.
Develop economic models for the extraction and storage of joint-product, nonrenewable resources the production of one of which is dominated by supply and demand for the other.
Incrementally improve the efficiency of technologies that currently depend on helium and develop alternative technologies that do not require helium

Going Green Owner Tips
At Wyndham we are committed to minimizing our environmental impact through conservation, education, innovation and programs in our local communities. Last year, WorldMark by Wyndham celebrated the 20th Anniversary of Earth Day with a request for owner tips on going green and we were overwhelmed with your positive and creative responses. To celebrate this environmental holiday again, we invited you to email us your best personal tips for going green. Needless to say we were once again amazed by the imaginative responses! See what owners have been doing to be Green!
Owner Tips on Going Green
Our family saves water in rain barrels (makeshift trash cans) which we have adapted to our gutter system at different locations around the house. We have many fruit trees and use this water for them. This last storm we saved over 200 gallons of water. We hope to better our system so we can store more water.
Sandra and Gabriel Zacatelco, Santa Ana, Calif.
I replaced my old steel front door with a fiberglass front door and replaced all of my old windows with triple paned glass windows to save energy. I have saved more than 40% in energy since I made the change! Next I am planning to upgrade my older appliances for more energy conservation and to help the planet.
Victoria Keisner, Mount Vernon, Wash.
We routinely recycle our food garbage into our recycling bin (which is almost as big as our garbage can) and then into our "red worm" bin. The red worms eat it readily and produce what Oregonians call "black gold" for composting onto your flower pots tops, your garden and anything you are growing. It is wonderful, because every time we pour the compost out onto a board, we collect the worms, split up our tightly bound up worm ball and then put the compost onto the garden. The red worms LOVE freshly cut grass, weeds, large stalks of tomato plants, etc. Good green way to do things!
Jane Spence, Tillamook, Ore.
I recycle with a local company and slowly I have gotten my neighbors to start too. I take them a bag and pick it up every other week. I have to drive 42 miles to take in the stuff, but I do it on the way to work. My neighbors have chickens so I have one bucket on my counter for scraps for them and one for compost. Also, this past month I have exchanged my toilet for water conservation version. I do many more things just to get by. I save on heating bills by burning wood, and insulating one thing a year - that is a tax credit! We all need to work together just to save a little at a time goes a long way.
Kathy Fink, Colorado City, Colo.
In the process of building a new house, we currently live in my mother-in-laws basement. Living with her two teenage children has been a struggle as they are not nearly as 'conscious' about discarding things like we are. We convinced them to participate in the city's voluntary recycling program and have been able to go from using two large city trash bins per week to recycling over 75% of our household items used and only throwing out one-two garbage bags per week. We have also worked at reducing the amount of power used in the last year by about 50%. Now if we could get the two high school kids to start car pooling.
Mitch & Rosa Sherman, Pocatello, Idaho
We bought a paper shredder and ALL of our paper that doesn't go in our compost bucket, except colored items, goes through the shredder. Then it goes on our compost. It's amazing how much less we put out in the garbage.
Kathy Harris, Wenatchee, Wash.
My family has cut out using paper towels for everything, since we have to wash anyway. I now use dish towels in the kitchen instead of a paper towel for everything. Napkins will be our next change - instead of paper napkins at the table, cloth will be nice. We also take the water that would be going down the drain while waiting for the shower to heat up and place a bucket under the faucet to use for watering the plants and yard. And, I have started taking my refill cup with me when I go to Starbucks, it's a nice change and I feel like I am helping in my small way.
Yvonne Oberlender, Cedar Park, Texas
Turn off computer monitors when leaving at the end of each work day – even "hibernating" uses energy. Use re-usable plates, bowls, cups – wash with biodegradable detergent at work. If you have to use plastic bottles of water – re-fill them for at least a week before trashing them. This one everyone knows – slit or cut plastic drink holders from six-packs so there are no complete circles. Recycle! If you can't afford to pay the fees charged by your city, find someone who uses the service and ask if you can put your cardboard, etc. in their recycle bin.
Shawna Wiberg, Roy, Utah
I have two rain barrels for collecting rain water which I use to water my plants. Also a worm bin where I get rid of almost all of my garbage. Then use the worm castings and the worm juice as fertilizer. You would be surprised at how much the RED SQUIGLELY WORMS eat and how fast they reproduce. I've eliminated all the grass in the front and replaced it with drought-tolerant plants, saving on water, fertilizer and upkeep of a lawn. Also, our car is never washed in the driveway. The soap just drains into our lakes, streams and eventually to the Puget Sound. If you want to wash your own vehicles at home do it on the lawn.
Dianne Boerger, Auburn, Wash.
When I change my cat's water bowl each day I water my plants with it instead of just letting it go down the drain.
Elizabeth Egan, San Clemente, Calif.
Everything in our home is used over and over until it is not useable any longer then it is recycled or composted. Examples are Ziploc bags, plastic containers, glass jars, cloth bags, etc. Shopping trips always include cloth bags. Very little goes into the garbage can each week.
Cindy Ward, Stockton, Calif.
I do not put my garbage container out every week for pickup because I do not have very much. Sometimes I can go a month without putting it out. My reasoning is that less fuel is used by the truck if it doesn't have to stop at each house.
Joanne Campbell, Boise, Idaho
Our family bought plain old buckets from the cleaning supply section and used them to collect water in the shower while waiting for it to get warm. We use it wash the tub, sink and flush the toilet! It saved us a lot of money! We relocated to California. and had to pay an average rate for our sewer last year. This year, we are in the lowest rate bracket! ka- ching! We also have three kids who end up wearing out socks regularly. I usually notice these when I am folding the laundry and this goes for the long lost pair that never pairs up. Instead of throwing those away immediately, I put them in a pile (behind the hamper) and use it to clean the blinds with. It fits right into my hands and I am giving one more use before I toss them into the garbage. No paper towels needed!
Nicole Barto, Windsor, Calif.
I have two buckets in my shower and use them to save the cold water while warming up the water before I shower. I use them to water my plants, clean my bathroom and even flush the toilet.
Mimi Jimenez, San Diego, Calif.

Tasuke I hobbyists aim to develop next generation cycles
By Rick Martin
May 27, 2010
Continuing our reports from Tokyo Make Meeting 2010, here's a fascinating group of bicycle hobbyists who brought some very creative bike designs to the show. The Tasuke I group were set up in the far corner of the exhibition hall, where they happily brought interested onlookers out the back exit for demonstrations.
The recumbent tricycle featured what was described as a luggage area on the back, useful for anyone who hoping to carry a larger-than-average load by bike. It is also equipped with a smaller basket underneath the seat for smaller items.
With pedals leading out above the front wheel and steering bars protruding upwards around the seat area, this tricycle seems perfect for a lazy Sunday morning grocery trip.
If this big yellow laid-back tricycle was a comfortable ride, the other bike that the group was showing off was anything but. This bicycle challenges the rider to lie down on top with his head leading out front, Superman style. Many thanks to Kanda-san (tech journalist of KNN fame) for kindly allowing me to film while he gave these bikes a shot. Check out the video footage of both bikes in action below.
The Tasuke I group is based in Chiba, and their group includes professors, engineers, IT professionals, and a wide range of other vocations. Members not only exchange information and design ideas with each other, but they also share tools as well for the benefit of the whole group.
Uh, hardly the cycles of tomorrow. There are far more advanced recumbent trikes around and have been for years, including two Australian manufacturere, LoGo and Greenspeed. And the other one is a safety hazard (running into stuff headfirst is not your best approach), and has been since the first version of that bike was developed during the 1930s. It\'s obvious that whoever designed those bikes didn\'t bother to check the current state of the art or prior art before starting.George Van Wagner
On the recumbent trike...He\'s obviously never ridden this thing up any steep hills. With the front wheel being the driving wheel and all that weight over the back axle, this think will get NO traction and may even flip over backwards...Yay! Fun!
On the lie down one...I guess the guy never rode the thing over any rough patches on the road. Imagine what it must feel like getting pummeled in the chest repeatedly for 30 minutes at a time while trying to go for a relaxing bicycle ride!...Yay! More Fun!Ed
The lie down bike puts your head at the level of most vehicle bumper. In the event of head-on collision the bicycle helmet will not save the rider. City riding puts you too low on the ground and drivers of buses, trucks and SUVs may not be able to see you. Besides you will be breathing in all the exhaust fumes at that level. I don\'t think the rider will be smiling if he has to ride this thing in wet weather, all the grit and dirt thrown up by the tyres hits him right in the face.TiBikeGuy
Stupid and useless design, It will stress neck and back mussels to keep your head up.Vladimir Popov
Oh dear, lots of haters here. Not that I would want a prone, but come on. Nobody bikes in heavy traffic between cars and trucks if they can help it, low or high seat height, prone or recumbent.
And the cargo recumbent weight distribution: Ed, did you actually look at the image video, or did you just fire off when you realised it was a FWD? The way that cargo bike is made, almost all of the rider\'s weight will be concentrated right down through the front fork. It might even have a tendency to tip over the front wheel when breaking, until you put some load in that cargo box. Traction problem? I don\'t think so...zix
The trike needs a larger diameter front wheel with a 10spd internal gear hub and disc brake and a windscreen. The prone bike is neither safe or efficient on the street. The rider can\'t turn their head easily side to side or see the eyes of a car driver. The rider has little to oppose the force the body exerts against the pedals. My choice for riding in traffic is an upright with a 3spd hub, a mirror, and a fairing.Grant-53
I have a canny knack of being able to pick colored contact lenses and dental inserts etc.. like a mile off.
Did anyone ever notice that the doing the face first bike riding looks like he has had the front four teeth knocked out and is wearing a dental bridge?
He is a fun looking guy tho\'.Mr Stiffy
Zix, we are not haters, we have some been there done that experience and are merely having a well deserved laugh at a contraption well deserving it. Its like how you can spot a yard done by a \"landscape architect\" from 100 yards off....the utter stupidity of some elements and placements. And stupidity is the kind term here. An, alas, so many other common items have been put through the designer process and weve seen enough here to get the gist of it...green kids of the postmodern persuasion should be sentenced to use the sstuff they playfull design. Use it ubtil they repent their ways and get real. That would put some \'educational value\' in their school experiences. Or better yet, let them do a few class sessions in the gymnasticly perverse poses they propose.
Bikes are used wherever one needs to go. The better route is not always there. Perhaps the cargo delivery is on that lousy for a biker thoroughfare. Wrecks everywhere because of laughter.....and no zix the riders weight is not \"concentrated down through the front fork. Its \"concentrated\" (sic) directly under his center of mass as it always is, be he on a bike, in the bed, setting in a chair or car, walking, swiming.... And that is where the pedals should be if he is to stand and deliver his utmost horsepowerfull yet sustainable strokes. Basic mechanical physics and basic ergonomics. Two concepts it seems most designers never came across.
Haters? no... Realists !waltinseattle

I wear these mostly for ice climbing and winter hikes. When ice climbing I really appreciate the waterproofness of the material - it has to rain very heavily to make it wet. And on hikes the best characteristic of this material is breathability - well, you have to sweat very heavily to make it wet. :) These are great and yes, I would recommend them to a friend.
I got the guide pants shortly before a trip to Patagonia and wore them almost the whole time on top of a pair of Patagonia Capilene bottoms for both an alpine ascent and rock climbing. They were perfect. It takes a LOT of rain or snow to actually get these pants "wet." They are my go-to pants for ice climbing, although I recommend gaiters to make sure you don't rip the bottoms. There are lots of pockets conveniently located and secure with zippers. Totally worth the price!

Heinz, you have no argument. You're the one who's full of it. I went back and clarified exactly what I meant
three times
in a following post so there was no doubt what I was talking about.
And for chrissakes, this is an enthusiast forum. It should be a given around this place that any time we are talking about a processor's overall performance factor that we are taking into account how well it overclocks. I can't hold your hand and walk you through common sense things like this constantly. Use your brain and do some thinking for yourself, because this act of yours is really getting old.
Actually it was me who said in the origional post #1:
"I believe if the same chips are overclocked Intel is going to be way ahead
Yes, you did. And as you'll notice, I had no problem with it and said nothing about it. But then you came back with this in your next reply to me:
Originally Posted by
I believe your statement that Intel outperform the AMD by "significant margin" is little blind fanboyism.[/b]
--calling me a "fanboy," which I already told you is a derogatory term that you shouldn't just toss around casually, and also arguing against the Core2Duo being the faster performer by a significant margin. So, which statement should I take seriously from you, Heinz? Which one should I take as your opinion? Door #1 or Door #2? First you say that Intel would outperform the AMDs and be "way ahead" when overclocking, and then you have a problem with me saying they would outperform them by a "significant margin." So.. which is it? Do you believe the Core2Duos outperform the AMDs by a significant margin or not? This all seemed to stem from your belief that I was somehow referring to the benchmarks when I never was. I was talking about performance after overclocking, which I clarified on 3 separate occasions in my next post.
Do you see now why I replied back to you? If there's anyone who seems to be "arguing with [them]self", it is you.
Look, I'll try to reach a truce with you here. It's possible that both of us have misunderstood each other. So I apologize if this has turned into a flamefest because of that. That wasn't my intent. I was just trying to clarify the facts since you seemed to be contradicting yourself. My apologies to all.

BioWare On Why Making a Blockbuster Game Is a Poor Goal 192
from the do-as-we-say-not-as-we-do dept.
The term MMO doesn't just mean that it's multiplayer and there are lots of players, it also implies that there's a persistent world and players spend all their time in it. You can have that kind of game with as little as a few hundred players.
It doesn't "just" mean that it's Massively Multiplayer, but it does mean that it is. Massive. And if it's not Massive, then pick a different word to describe it, you or you might as well just start speaking in your own personal lexicon, you chuwero muptard.
No, more like 'Bioware doesn't aim to make a blockbuster game.. we've just been remaking KOTOR ever since we discovered it was a smash hit!'
I bet you are fun at parties.
ugh, replied to wrong post.

Estonian Air Earnings Trail Expectations, Minister Tells EPL
Aug. 9 (Bloomberg) -- AS Estonian Air's financial results are "clearly" weaker than expected, Economy Minister Juhan Parts told Eesti Paeevaleht in an interview, without disclosing details.
The government, which owns 90 percent of the national carrier, hasn't received requests for additional financing, the newspaper said. Estonian Air should consider releasing earnings reports on a quarterly basis or at least twice a year, rather than once a year, EPL cited Parts as saying.

Wiz Khalifa - Paperbond
Artist: Wiz Khalifa
Producer: I.D. Labs
Album: O.N.I.F.C
Avg Rating: 2.8 ( 11 votes )
Just how much weed does Wiz Khalifa possess? Imagine that iconic shot from Oliver Stone's Scarface, but instead of Colombian cocaine, Tony Montana's desk is piled high with OG kush. On Paperbond, the latest single off his second major-label LP, the rap heavyweight fills us in on how good it feels to have trees that he could smoke in multiple lifetimes, and more money than he could spend in a thousand years. Wiz' blunted braggadocio comes backed by the atmospheric synth boardwork of frequent collaborator I.D. Labs. Frank Palladino directs the joint's newly-released official visuals. Released in December of last year via Atlantic/Rostrum, O.N.I.F.C. is available now wherever fine music is sold.

Maryland provost to lead SDSU
Charles Toombs, president of campus faculty union and a professor of Africana studies, attended all three of the public sessions with the candidates.
"Of course all three were qualified and could lead SDSU," Toombs said. "I think Hirshman has a strong record on diversity and I think he seems a very rational, reasonable and thoughtful man. It's clear he has done a lot of research on CSU and San Diego State.
"I can tell from listening to him that he is going to be willing to listen to the various stakeholders at San Diego State University. I look forward to working with him."
Freeman A. Hrabowski III, Hirshman's current boss, seemingly cannot say enough good things about SDSU's next president.
"I am happy for him, but your gain is our loss," said Hrabowski, president of the Maryland campus. He's the best I've seen. There is no doubt that he was destined to be a president. His No. 1 strength is his authenticity ... No. 2, he is an excellent thinker, but he understands the importance of listening, weighing different points of view before making a decision."
Weber issued a prepared statement on the selection: "My thanks to Chancellor Reed and the search committee members for their good work. It is my privilege to pass on responsibility for serving a great university to President Hirshman. It will be Elliot's privilege to bring San Diego State to the next level of excellence."
Seth Mallios, chairman of the anthropology department, also attended all three public sessions.
"I'm excited," Mallios said. "He's one of the youngest presidents we've ever had — I'm trying to pin down the birth dates of all of them. You know, we've only had seven presidents in 114 years. The average tenure is over 16 years.
"I think his youth is a perfect fit for a university that expects steady, consistent long-term leadership."
Linda Lang — an SDSU graduate, a CSU trustee and chairwoman and CEO of Jack in the Box — also issued a statement: "Through its research, teaching and service mission, SDSU is deeply engaged in the San Diego community. I believe Elliot Hirshman is someone who can continue the considerable progress made by President Weber over the past 15 years."
Before assuming his current position in Maryland, Hirshman served as chief research officer at George Washington University from 2005 to 2008.
He has been chairman of the departments of psychology at George Washington and the University of Colorado Denver. He began his academic career at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill where he was a professor of psychology before going to Denver.
Hirshman's compensation will be set by the trustees at their July meeting. He declined to say whether he has some informal understanding of what his pay will be.
"I do think they'll be fair," he said.
Weber earns just under $300,000 annually and lives in university-provided housing.
