Independent Label Reports Loving iTunes Music Store, Ready To Sign
Independent Label Reports Loving iTunes Music Store, Ready To Sign
by , 3:00 PM EDT, June 6th, 2003
CD Baby has publicly said that it's ready to sign with Apple to be a part of the iTunes Music Store (iMS). CD Baby is technically a record store, but it deals with independent musicians, effectively making it a sort of label. The company provides an avenue for independent musicians who do their own pressings to be able to commercially sell their music, and the company purports to have an artist-friendly business model.
Apple offered a presentation to independent labels on the iMS yesterday in Cupertino, suggesting the company wished to expand the iMS to offer independent music, instead of just offering music from the Big Five major labels. At least one such source of independent music is ready to go. From a note posted by CD Baby:
Went to a private briefing at Apple's office yesterday about how the Apple iTunes Music Store will be able to work with independent labels.
It's perfect. It's amazing. It's a winner. And I'm totally behind it.
They'll be sending a contract with more details, but I just wanted to give the sneak preview that everything I saw is VERY artist-friendly.
I'll update this page, to let everyone know more when I can. Keep this page bookmarked for future news on this subject.
And yes, sorry, there used to be more details here. I didn't realize yesterday's presentation was supposed to be confidential. When I found out, I pulled the details. Honest mistake.
As of press time, TMO was unable to reach anyone at CD Baby. You can find more information about the company, its history, and its business at CD Baby's Web site.
The Mac Observer Spin:The good news just keeps pouring in regarding the iMS. With CD Baby's business model, the company could effectively act as a clearing house for independent musicians to get on the iMS. See our extended commentary on the long-term importance and value of independent labels and musicians to the iMS for more information. We frankly expect the majority of independent labels to be excited about the iMS, and more news of this nature should will hopefully be forthcoming.

Mystery as college graduate, 24, working as a singer aboard luxury cruise ship is found dead in her cabin in Australia
- Jackie Kastrinelis was discovered dead in her cabin on Sunday morning after docking in Darwin Harbour
- Kastrinelis was the lead singer aboard Regent Cruise Lines' Seven Seas voyager
- Cause of death not determined while single report of possible head injury night before
- Remembered as a 'ray of sunshine, a life force and a beautiful person'
An investigation is underway today into the death of a 24-year-old college graduate working as a lead singer aboard a luxury cruise ship after her body was found in Australia.
Authorities say Jackie Kastrinelis of Groveland, Massachusetts was found dead in her cabin aboard Regent Cruise Lines' Seven Seas voyager after the ship docked in Darwin Harbour on Sunday morning.
The cabin was originally being treated as a crime scene but her death is no longer deemed suspicious, according to police while the cause of her death remains unknown.

Jackie Kastrinelis, a 24-year-old lead singer aboard a cruise ship was found dead on Sunday in her cabin after docking in Australia
Accident: The 2010 graduate of the University of Hartford's Hartt School, seen performing on the ship, is said by one source to have hit her head during a rehearsal before found in her room
An unidentified source claims that the 2010 University of Hartford graduate suffered a head injury during a rehearsal the night before and was possibly given medication by a ship doctor, Cruise Law News reports.
An autopsy is currently underway while Australian authorities say it could take weeks to months for the toxicology test results to return.
Her family, left without answers, were releasing no comment on Monday pending further information, her brother Andrew Kastrinelis told the Hartford Courant.
They have since flown to Australia to meet her body.
Miss Kastrinelis was the lead singer aboard the cruise liner since 2011, according to Jean Ann Ryan Productions who's responsible for her hire.
Jean Ann Ryan described the young singer as a 'ray of sunshine, a life force and a beautiful person,' according to Boston.com.'...she loved performing, she was a great singer.'
Mystery: An autopsy is currently underway in finding the woman's cause of death that is said to no longer to be suspicious by police who have released no further information
Loss: The lead singer aboard the Seven Seas Voyager, pictured, was mourned by Regent Cruise Lines who released a statement calling Miss Kastrinelis one of their own
Mutually affected by her abrupt loss was Lori Verderame who said she knew and worked with Miss Kastrinelis aboard the Voyager where they discussed their future lives and the unexpected paths life will take them.
Rising star: The 24-year-old remembered as a ray of sunshine was the lead singer aboard the cruise liner since 2011
'She made a very big impression on everyone,' Verderame, who lectured aboard Regent ships as an art appraiser told the Courant. 'She won't be forgotten.'
Before her work as a cruise singer, Miss Kastrinelis graduated from Hartford's Hartt School of performing arts with a bachelor of fine arts degree.
'She was a really bright personality, very engaging, warm-hearted,' University spokesman David Isgur told the Courant.
During her time in the Hartt School
she additionally worked as a news reporter for student-run new station
STN2 who expressed their own grief over news of the young star's death
on Monday.
'It is with
great sadness that STN2 is able to confirm that former anchor and
reporter Jackie Kastrinelis, a member of the Hartt [School at University
of Hartford] Class of 2010 died over the weekend,' they wrote.
'Kastrinelis was a popular and talented Hartt performer, and personality at CHANNEL 2.'
A statement released by Regent Seven Seas Cruises said they were mutually 'deeply saddened by the loss of one of our own,' adding, 'our hearts and prayers go out to the family and loved ones.'

Garden Grocer provided an excellent service to me and my family on our Disney vacation. The customer service and communication were top notch. I would definitely recommend them to anyone visiting the Orlando area!
In June of 2015 we stayed a week at the Sarotaga Springs Resort at Disney World. Our travel agent recommended Garden Grocer from personal experience. The order process was smooth and simple. The selection was more than adequate. My only concern was the request for gratuity prior to delivery. I never like tipping before a service is rendered as that obviously negates the point of tipping. With that said, the groceries were delivered on time and the delivery person called to let me know the groceries had arrived at bell services. All in all, we had no complaints and would definitely use their services again if we are in the Orlando area.
What a treat to arrive at our hotel (all 14 of us)with our order waiting for us and brought to our room with our luggage. Not a single mistake! I think we may have paid a little more but it was certainly worth it. Thank you Garden Grocer

Seemed to be the section less crowded. But disliked all the souvenier sellers at the entrance to the lift.
Facing the wall from the south, go left and keep climbing past the incline of many steps, past the extent of the wall's restoration, and keep going along the wild part. That is the best!
thrilling place to walk on even in the coldest of winter, fun to ride the chair lift up and then tobagoon down
Visiting in winter has the advantage it's not so crowded. Visibility was not soo good when i was there.If you don't like souvernir shiops the walk from de entrance to the parking lot is a challenge...
It was not crowded when we were there and we can walk and rest at our own pace. It has a very nice view too. The steps are steeper as compared to Badaling but we enjoyed this great exercise. :)

Gunfire in Price prompts college dorm lockdown
PRICE — A man fired multiple rounds from a shotgun in a residential area Tuesday night, prompting a lockdown of the dormitories at Utah State University Eastern.
Ralph Schade had been "experiencing some personal issues" recently and "decided to take out his frustrations" by stepping out of his home at 660 N. 200 East about 6:30 p.m. armed with a shotgun, said Price Police Capt. Ben Barnes. Schade then fired as many as four rounds from the weapon, according to witnesses.
"There was no indication that he was aiming at someone else or trying to harm himself," Barnes said.
Police from throughout Carbon County set up a perimeter around the house and tried to make contact with Schade. An hour and a half later they learned Schade had left the home after firing the shots, but before police arrived.
An officer located Schade at a relative's home in nearby Wellington and cited him for discharging a firearm within city limits, a class B misdemeanor. Prosecutors could file additional charges, Barnes said.
Drug and alcohol use do not appear to be factors in what happened Tuesday night, the captain said.
The incident happened less than two blocks from the dormitories at Utah State University Eastern. All students living in the dorms were kept inside and the buildings were secured as a safety precaution, said Brad King, the school's vice chancellor for administration and advancement.
The dormitory lockdown was lifted once police determined a threat to public safety no longer existed, King said.

Bill would prevent transportation of hazardous materials down Apple Street
May 06, 2013 at 9:02 am | Mobile Reader | Print
SB217, authored by Gary Smith (D–Norco), passed the Senate in a unanimous 32-0 vote and will now be taken up in the house by Rep. Greg Miller (R–Norco).
The Apple Street corridor between River Road and Airline Highway has long been utilized as a transportation route for semis carrying hazardous materials to and from local plants.
Norco Civic Association President Sal Digirolamo said he has worked on getting the legislation passed for seven years.
"Apple Street is mostly residential, a lot of the homes are close to the road and some are five or ten feet from the street. If we had any kind of accident just imagine what happened if one of these gas trucks came by," he said. "You can imagine what will happen with the houses as close as they are."
Due to a low lying pipeline on River Road near the Valero refinery that did not provide enough clearance, trucks did not have the ability to take an alternate route.
"(Digirolamo) brought it too my attention that he has tried to work on that for numerous years," Rochelle Touchard, communications manager at Motiva, said.
Motiva and Valero came together last year and invested $500K each to raise the pipeline.
Miller said he does not expect any opposition in the House as Smith has already put the pieces in place for the bill to be successful.
"Sen. Smith did all of the groundwork to make sure all of the industry was on board. In fact, that was what we were waiting for. The pipeline crossing at Valero had to be raised first before this could pass," he said.
If the bill passes, all trucks carrying hazardous material will instead be routed to Prospect Avenue.
"There are only a few houses there and they arent as close to the street," Digirolamo said.
Miller said some exceptions were made for businesses on Apple Street who must receive shipments of hazardous materials.
"There has been an exception to that put in case there are any hazardous materials, such as propane, that have to be delivered to businesses located on Apple Street," he said.
Touchard said Motiva was happy to do their part in helping the community.
"Safety is paramount, whether that be a hazardous load or non-hazardous," Touchard said. "I just think traffic going through a residential area is unnecessary unless something is being delivered down Apple to a business that helps them."

The present invention relates generally to electrophoresis and particularly to a container for storing and protecting an electrophoretic support medium contained therein.
It is known that an analysis of ionizable compounds, such as proteins, can be made by subjecting a sample, of for example blood, to an electrical potential as taught in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,407,133 (Oliva et al.) and 3,479,265 (Elevitch).
The sample to be analyzed by electrophoresis is placed on a suitable support medium, such as a gel, of the types disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,725,004 (Johnson et al.). Such support medium may include, for example; (1) aqueous solutions of agar or agarose as disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,281,409 (Blethen), 3,335,127 (Polson), 3,362,884 (Morse) and 3,766,047 (Elevitch); (2) synthetic polymeric gelling agents as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,046,201 (White et al.); and (3) cellulose and cellulose acetate as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,360,440 (Haab et al.). However, such support mediums are prone to dehydration, thus, requiring air tight enclosure by containers to completely prevent evaporation of the water from the support medium as disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,875,045 (Bergrahm et al.) and 4,314,897 (Monte et al.). This has been accomplished by providing adhesive sealing strips to the containers, or the use of moistened pads within the containers as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,856,656 (Brink). Also, such containers have been completely enclosed within air tight bags. Dehydration is undesirable because it affects the shelf life of the support medium and causes variations in the migration of the ionizable compounds during use. In addition to requiring air tight enclosure, such containers have required secure retention of the support medium within the container to prevent the support medium from coming in contact with any part of the container to prevent flaws, such as marks or cracks in the support medium. Such flaws are aggravated by shrinkage of the support medium caused by dehydration as disclosed, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 4,314,897 (Monte et al.).
In contrast to the prior art containers for storing and protecting an electrophoretic support medium from dehydration and physical damage acknowledged above, the container of the present invention provides a means for securely retaining the support medium within the container by the use of a liquid located between the support medium and the container. In addition, because retention is accomplished by a liquid, moisture is provided within the interior of the container.
The container for an electrophoretic support medium of the present invention includes a top portion and a bottom portion, which when closed sealingly engage with one another. The support medium has a base sheet with at least two opposed major surfaces and a layer of an electrophoretic gel adhered to one of the major surfaces of the base sheet. The bottom portion of the container has a recess formed therein for accommodating the support medium and at least a portion of the recess is a substantially smooth planar surface. A liquid is disposed between the planar surface of the recess of the bottom portion and the other surface of the base sheet. The liquid is in surface contact with the other surface of the base sheet and the planar surface of the recess, whereby the support medium is retained in the recess as a result of the contact adhesion between the liquid and the contacting surfaces.
The various features, benefits, and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent by reading the following detailed description in conjunction with the drawings where like reference numerals identify corresponding components:
FIG. 1 is a plan view of the container of the present invention, with the container in any opened position and with the electrophoretic support medium retained in the bottom portion thereof;
FIG. 2 is a plan view of the electrophoretic support medium with a layer of an electrophoretic gel adhered to a base sheet;
FIG. 3 is a fragmentary cross-sectional view of the electrophoretic support medium illustrating the details of the layer of electrophoretic gel and base sheet taken in the direction of arrows 3--3 of FIG. 2;
FIG. 4 is an enlarged front cross-sectional view of the container, with the container in a closed position, illustrating retention of the electrophoretic support medium thereby by a liquid placed between the support medium and the container; and
FIG. 5 is an enlarged side fragmentary view of the container, partly in section, with the container in a closed upside down position, illustrating retention of the electrophoretic support medium therein by a liquid placed between the support medium and the container.
Referring to FIG. 1 of the drawings, the container of the present invention, generally designated 10, for protecting and enclosing an electrophoretic support medium 12 is illustrated. The container 10 includes a top portion 14 and a bottom portion 16, which when closed sealingly engage with one another. The top portion 14 and the bottom portion 16 are hingedly connected at their edges 18 to permit ease of opening and closing.
As illustrated in FIG. 2 and in greater detail in FIG. 3, the electrophoretic support medium includes a base sheet 20 which has at least two opposed major surfaces 22 and 24. A layer 26 of an electrophoretic gel is adhered to one of the major surfaces 22 of the base sheet. The particular gel is not essential to the present invention and may include any of the mediums of the prior art mentioned hereinabove. However, agarose has been successfully utilized.
When the container 10 is closed by bending the container along edge 18, a cavity 30 is formed within the container by the top portion 14 and the bottom portion 16, as illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5. The bottom portion 16 includes a recess 32 dimensioned such as to fully contain the support medium 12 therein. Along the edge 34 of the recess is a continuous sealing surface 36. To ensure that the top portion 14 does not come in contact with the gel layer 26, an additional recess 40 is formed in the top portion 14, and a continuous rim 42 protrudes from the top portion 14 into the cavity 30 to further define the recess 40. The rim 42 also includes a continuous sealing surface 44 which contacts the continuous sealing surface 36 of the recess 32 to provide a substantial air-tight cavity when the container is closed. In addition, the rim 42 is spaced apart from the support medium and does not come in contact with the base sheet 20 or the gel layer 26 of the support medium 12.
As illustrated in FIGS. 1, 4 and 5, at least a portion of the recess 32 of the bottom portion 16 includes a substantially smooth planar surface 50. The surface should be substantially smooth to maximize contact between the other or exposed surface 24 of the base sheet 20 and the planar surface 50 of the recess 32. Thus, at least one drop of liquid placed between the planar surface and the base sheet is sufficient to securely retain the support medium 12 within the recess and to prevent it, specifically the gel layer 26, from coming in contact with any part of the container during, for example, shipping and storage. The molecular attraction exerted between the exposed surface 24 of the base sheet 20 and the liquid 52, and the molecular attraction exerted between the planar surface 50 of the recess 32 and the liquid 52 provides the necessary contact adhesion. It is essential that the contact adhesion be sufficient to securely retain the support medium within the recess 32. It has been found that the molecular attraction between the base sheet and the bottom portion is insufficient by itself to securely retain the support medium 12.
Similarly, if the contact adhesion between the liquid molecules an the material of the contacting surfaces is insufficient, a surfacant may be added to the liquid 52 to increase its wetting ability. However, it has been found that when polymeric materials, such as styrene for the container and Mylar for the base sheet ("MYLAR" is a trademark of E. I. DuPont de Nemours & Company of Wilmington, Del.), are utilized contact adhesion is sufficient when a liquid 52, such as water, is placed between them. In addition, the water ensures that sufficient moisture is present within the cavity 30 of the container 10 to limit the rate of dehydration of the gel layer 26. This prolongs its shelf life. Normally, the manufacturers of this product will select the best commercially available material based upon price application and manufacturing process. Also, buffers, preservatives and stabilizers may be added to the liquid separately or in combination for their various purposes. By way of example, AMP or barbital may be utilized as buffers, and sodium azide or thimerosal as preservatives.
As illustrated in FIG. 1, a pair of intersecting valleys 60 are provided in recess 32 to separate the planar surface 50 into four flat plateau portions 62. This substantially reduces air spaces and the like between the contacting surfaces to increase the retention of the support medium 12 within the recess 32.
Further, an additional recess 64 is provided in the recess 32 beneath t he plane of the planar surface 50 so that a person may place his or her finger beneath the base sheet 20 to remove the support medium 12 from the container 10. Such force is sufficient to overcome the contact adhesion present as a result of the liquid. Also, two members 66 protrude from the plane of the planar surface 50 into the recess 32 of the bottom portion 16 for locating the support medium 12 within the recess. Lastly, as illustrated in FIG. 5, a member 68 protrudes from the plane of the recess 40 of the top portion 14, and when the container 10 is closed, the member 68 is accommodated by and comes in contact with the recess 64 to limit the engageability of the top portion 14 and the bottom portion 16 to ensure that the top portion is spaced apart from the support medium 12.
As illustrated in FIGS. 1, to facilitate opening of the container 10, the bottom portion 16 includes a pair of tabs 70 and 72, and the top portion 14 includes a single tab 74. Thus, a person may grasp either of the tabs 70 or 72 of the top portion with one hand, and the tab 74 of the bottom portion 16 with the other hand, and by pulling easily open the container to expose the support medium retained therein.
There are several ways to produce the container 10 of the present invention which are known to those skilled in the art, such as vacuum forming. The particular manufacturing process is not essential to the present invention, and is a matter of choice based upon economics and availability.
While the preferred embodiment of the present invention has been described so as to enable one skilled in the art to practice the techniques of the present invention, the proceeding description is intended to be exemplary and should not be used to limit the scope of the invention. The scope of the invention should be determined only by reference to the following claims.

SAN FRANCISCO Chipmaker Intel Corp (INTC.O) said on Monday it was adjusting its financial reporting structure to better reflect its focus on two key areas: mobile and the growing field of linking up electronic devices.
Beginning with its first-quarter report, due on April 15, Intel said it will provide revenues from its recently created Internet of Things Group, which focuses on the emerging trend of connecting everything from bathroom scales to skyscraper ventilation systems via the Internet, and a new Mobile and Communications segment.
Revenue from Intel's phone and tablet chip businesses was previously included under the Other Intel Architecture segment.
In addition, results from the gateway and set-top box business will be included as part of the PC Client Group instead of Other Intel Architecture, Intel said in a statement. The Data Center segment will include communications infrastructure results, which also previously were included under Other Intel Architecture.
The Internet of Things Group, created late last year, combined Intel's business focused on chips for commercial and industrial devices with its Wind River subsidiary, which sells software for commercial and industrial devices.
The PC Client Group, which accounts for the biggest chunk of Intel's revenue, will now include results from the gateway and set-top box business.
Intel's first-quarter report next week will include retrospective results for the updated business segments.

"As has been reported, Jason Kilar has been a focus of the Yahoo CEO search committee. He has graciously declined to be considered," a Hulu spokesperson tells THR.
No further comment was provided.
Earlier, AllThingsD reported that the web giant's quest for a new leader was entering its final stages, with Hulu CEO Kilar and and Yahoo interim CEO Ross Levinsohn having emerged as the top two candidates, AllThingsD reported.
Several other unnamed candidates also were being considered for the job, but no further details were immediately available, it said.
Hulu CEO Jason Kilar Promises Original Programming
The top job appeared Levinsohn's to lose, given that he has been at Yahoo for several years and has a reputation as a media-savvy leader, AllThingsD said.
He is a former News Corp. top executive and also used to work at HBO.
Kilar is credited with building Hulu into a popular video destination. Last year, the conglomerate owners of Hulu -- News Corp., Disney and NBCUniversal -- decided to hold on to the site rather than sell it.
Kilar, a former Amazon and Disney executive, famously ruffled some feathers of his conglomerate bosses a couple of years ago when he publicly raised questions about the current TV business and its viability.
Yahoo's board seemed to be weighing whether Levinsohn's media and advertising focus or Kilar's product development and technology credentials are best for Yahoo's future.
A Yahoo spokeswoman declined to comment, AllThingsD said.
Hedge Fund Demands Yahoo CEO Scott Thompson Fired Over Resume Inaccuracies
Yahoo's CEO post has seen a lot of turnover. Most recent CEO Scott Thompson had to resign in May after less than half a year in the post amid a controversy over misstated education credentials.

The Patriot League football season was certainly interesting and entertaining this fall. There were plenty of surprises, including the team holding the trophy when the dust settled. Lafayette's run was impressive and unexpected. Today, the league honored the best players from the season. Among them, several Leopards. On the first team honorees included wide receiver Mark Ross who had another standout season for the Leopards including a big touchdown grab Saturday at Lehigh. Matt Smalley is also on the first team, twice. Smalley was honored as a defensive back and kick returner. Lehigh's honorees included playmakers Keith Sherman, who finished with some huge games late in the season at tailback, and Lee Kurfis, who broke Lehigh's single season receptions record in his breakout season. Here's the entire list of first team honorees for both teams. Lafayette has five on the first team, as do the Mountain Hawks. Congrats to all the players that made the teams, but one guy that didn' make the teams is stealing some of the headlines today. Drew Reed, Lafayette's freshman quarterback, was snubbed. Reed took over for Lafayette under center and played most of the snaps in league play. He led Lafayette to the league title and was a real difference maker for Lafayette. Yet, he's nowhere to be found on the All -League teams or as the rookie of the year, and there are many that would argue he should be one of the first guys on those lists. Reed leads Lafayette into New Hampshire and the playoffs on Saturday.

Short Cuts
Death: ~262
Marinus, a Roman army officer of Caesarea, Palestine (near Hadera, Israel), was to be raised to the rank of centurion when a rival intervened. The latter disclosed that Marinus was a Christian, unwilling to offer sacrifice to the emperor, and thus unsuited to promotion. The revelation led to Marinus being summoned before the governor. Upon hearing Marinus profess his Christian faith, the governor sent him away with a three-hour deadline to reconsider his religious profession or face the consequences. As Marinus went out, he met the bishop Theotecnus, who took him to a nearby church. Bringing Marinus near the altar, Theotecnus pointed to the officer's sword, and then to the Gospel book, instructing him to choose between the two. Immediately Marinus reached for the Gospels. The bishop declared, "Hold fast then to God, that, strengthened by him, you may obtain what you have chosen. Go in peace." Marinus was soon beheaded. Upon witnessing Marinus' martyrdom, Astyrius, a Roman senator, took off his own cloak to wrap Marinus' body, and carried it on his shoulders to bury it honorably. For this act of charity, Astyrius was also executed.

On The Fly: Midday Wrap
Stocks on Wall Street were higher at midday, pushing the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average toward new milestone levels. The market began the session just slightly below the flat-line, but within minutes had moved into positive territory where it has remained all morning. The averages have moved in a very narrow range, but the slow drift higher has the Dow within striking distance of 17,000 and the S&P edging closer to 2,000. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., no significant economic data was reported. In Asia, data released over the weekend showed that China's trade surplus widened in May to $35.92B, as the nation's exports accelerated more than forecast and imports fell more than expected. COMPANY NEWS: Shares of several companies that have developed hepatitis C, or HCV, treatments were active after one such company, Idenix (IDIX), agreed to be acquired by pharmaceutical giant Merck (MRK) for $24.50 per share in cash. The purchase price is more than triple the company's closing price on Friday and Idenix shares rose more than 230% to trade near $24.09 after the announcement. Shares of Achillion Pharmaceuticals (ACHN), which has developed its own HCV drugs, were up 40% as investors speculate it could be the next takeover target in the space, while shares of Gilead (GILD) fell about 4% after an analyst wrote that Merck bought Idenix partly to strengthen its hand in patent litigation against Gilead... Food processor and distributor Hillshire Brands (HSH) advanced another 5% after Tyson Foods (TSN) increased its offer to acquire the company to $63 per share, prompting rival Pilgrim's Pride (PPC) to withdraw its own takeover proposal. However, Tyson's new offer is still subject to Hillshire being released from its existing agreement to acquire Pinnacle Foods (PF) and Hillshire said it does not have the right to break its merger pact with Pinnacle on the basis of the Tyson offer or enter into an agreement with Tyson prior to the termination. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers was Family Dollar (FDO), which climbed 14% after well-known activist investor Carl Icahn disclosed that he had obtained a significant stake in the company. Also higher were shares of peer Dollar General (DG), which gained nearly 10% after Icahn reportedly told Fox Business that he may push for a merger between the two dollar store operators. Among the noteworthy losers was Neustar (NSR), which dropped 7.5% after acknowledging a copy of a confidential email was posted in the FCC docket and made available to the public. Deutsche Bank noted that shares of NeuStar traded down just before the close on Friday after the posting, which suggested the North American Numbering Council has recommended selecting iConectiv, the Telcordia unit of Ericsson (ERIC), as the vendor for the Number Portability Administration Center in place of incumbent Neustar. INDEXES: Near midday, the Dow was up 31.57, or 0.19%, to 16,955.85, the Nasdaq was up 22.30, or 0.52%, to 4,343.70, and the S&P 500 was up 3.92, or 0.2%, to 1,953.36.

Stocks end week lower as biotechs sink, Volkswagen crashes
Stocks ended the week lower after concerns about drug prices were reignited, sinking biotech stocks, an emissions scandal engulfed Volkswagen (VLKAY), dragging down shares of automakers and their suppliers, and Caterpillar (CAT) announced that it may eliminate as many as 10,000 jobs in the next three years as commodity prices continue to slump. MACRO NEWS: Following the Federal Reserve's decision last week to wait before raising rates, the central bank made a concerted effort to give the market more clarity this week. Over last weekend, three Federal Reserve officials - San Francisco Fed President John Williams, St. Louis Fed President James Bullard and Richmond Fed President Jeffrey Lacker - all argued that an interest-rate increase is still warranted this year. Then, on Thursday night, Fed Chair Janet Yellen said during a speech at UMass Amherst that the central bank remains inclined to hike rates this year. Yellen's remarks were incrementally hawkish, but welcomed by the market, since they helped clarify the message the Fed delivered a week ago... In the U.S., Markit's flash manufacturing purchasing manager's index was flat at 53.0 in September, which was slightly better than the expectation for it to dip to 52.8. Durable goods orders for August declined 2.0%, versus expectations for a drop of 2.3%. When transportation items were removed, the core reading was breakeven, versus expectations for a rise of 0.1%. The third estimate of second quarter GDP showed the economy grew 3.9% quarter-over-quarter, versus expectations for the GDP growth estimate to stay at 3.7%. Personal consumption in Q2 is now believed to have grown 3.6%, up from the prior estimate of 3.1%. The final University of Michigan consumer sentiment reading for September came in at 87.2, which was down from August's 91.9 but above the expected 86.2 reading... The Asian Development Bank cut its growth forecast for the region, citing a weaker outlook for China and India and a delayed recovery in the world's advanced economies. The bank now sees the Chinese economy growing 6.8% this year and 6.7% next year, down from its previous forecasts of 7.2% and 7%, respectively. Markit's flash manufacturing PMI for China fell to 47.0 in September from 47.3 last month. Meanwhile, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe unveiled new economic targets, including a goal for a 20% increase in the target size of the Japanese economy to 600T yen, though he gave no timeframe for achieving this aspiration... In Europe, Markit's composite PMI for the eurozone came in at 53.9 in the first look for September, down from 54.3 in August and below expectations for a reading of 54.1. COMPANY NEWS: Biotech stocks declined after privately-held Turing Pharmaceuticals made headlines by enacting a 5,000% price increase on its treatment for toxoplasmosis, reigniting a debate around drug prices that previously embroiled costly Hepatitis C drugs including AbbVie's (ABBV) Viekira Pak and Gilead's (GILD) Sovaldi and Harvoni. Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton sent the debate to center stage by criticizing the "outrageous" prices of specialty drugs and laying out a plan to tackle "price gouging" in the specialty drug market. The NASDAQ Biotechnology index fell roughly xxx% for the week amid the attention paid to Turing's drug and Clinton's response... Volkswagen (VLKAY) shares trading in New York fell sharply to begin the week and ended the week far from where they'd been last Friday before the EPA said it found manipulations that violate U.S. environmental standards while testing certain of the automaker's diesel cars. The EPA said Volkswagen may face civil penalties of $37,500 for each vehicle not in compliance with federal clean air rules, which could total as much as $18B, according to Reuters. In the wake of the scandal, Chief Executive Officer Martin Winterkorn resigned, with the company's supervisory board subsequently praising the decision and selecting Matthias Mueller, the former head of Porsche (POAHY), as Winterkorn's successor as the company's new CEO... Caterpillar (CAT) shares dropped after the heavy machinery maker announced plans for job cuts and lowered its revenue guidance for this year and next. Caterpillar said that it would lay off 4,000-5,000 of its employees between now and the end of 2016 and could lay off up to 10,000 employees by 2018. Caterpillar cut its fiscal year 2015 revenue forecast by $1B and said its sees its fiscal year 2016 revenue to be 5% below this year, adding that it expects revenue declines in all three large segments next year... Online and mobile deal provider Groupon (GRPN) said it plans to cut 1,100 jobs relating primarily to the company's international operations... Nike jumped after the athletic gear giant reported better than expected earnings and futures orders, prompting numerous price target hikes and at least one upgrade at Street research firms. Among other companies reporting earnings this week, BlackBerry (BBRY), ConAgra (CAG), Carnival (CCL), and CarMax (KMX) fell immediately following their quarterly reports... Apple (AAPL), which has previously been reported to be working on an electric car via its "Project Titan," is speeding up those efforts and setting 2019 as a target to ship its first vehicle, according to The Wall Street Journal... Against the backdrop of China's President Xi Jinping visiting the U.S., Boeing (BA) announced deals to sell 300 planes to three Chinese companies and set up an aircraft factory in in the Asian nation, while Cisco (CSCO) announced a partnership with Chinese server maker Inspur Group... Lloyd Blankfein, Goldman Sachs (GS) Chairman and CEO, disclosed that he was diagnosed with lymphoma. "Fortunately, my form of lymphoma is highly curable and my doctors' and my own expectation is that I will be cured," Blankfein stated in an open letter that was shared by the bank... GoPro (GPRO) finished the week about xxx% lower after Barron's contended in a feature article last weekend that the company's stock could plunge another 30% to $25 as Apple, Sony (SNE) and others pressure the company's "one-hit wonder" products... On the M&A front, Atmel (ATML) agreed to be acquired by German chipmaker Dialog Semiconductor in a deal valued at roughly $4.6B and Starwood Waypoint (SWAY) announced a stock-for-stock merger agreement with Colony American Homes. INDEXES: The Dow lost about 0.43% to close at 16,314.67, the S&P 500 fell about 1.35% to close at 1,931.34, and the Nasdaq declined about 2.89% to close at 4,686.50.
Merck volatility elevated as shares trend lower
Merck October weekly call option implied volatility is at 39, October is at 34, November is a 29; compared to its 52-week range of 15 to 34, suggesting large price movement after presidential candidate Hilary Clinton announced plans early this week to cap prescription drug prices.

Gilead says CHMP adopts poistive opinion for single tablet regimen Genvoya
Gilead Sciences announced that the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use has adopted a positive opinion on the company's Marketing Authorization Application for the investigational, once-daily single tablet regimen Genvoya for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. The data submitted in the MAA support the use of the regimen among adult and adolescent treatment-naive individuals, virologically suppressed adults who switch regimens and adults with mild-to-moderate renal impairment. The CHMP's recommendation will now be reviewed by the European Commission, which has the authority to approve medicines for use in the 28 countries of the European Union. If authorized, Genvoya would be Gilead's first single tablet regimen to contain TAF. The MAA for Genvoya is supported by 48-week data from two pivotal Phase 3 studies in which the regimen met its primary objective of non-inferiority compared to Gilead's Stribild among treatment-naive adult patients. In the studies, Genvoya demonstrated improvement in surrogate laboratory markers of renal and bone safety as compared to Stribild. The MAA is also supported by data from additional Phase 3 studies evaluating the TAF-based regimen among adolescents, virologically suppressed adult patients who switched to Genvoya and adult patients with mild-to-moderate renal impairment.

Provectus Biopharmaceuticals (PVCT) announced it has completed development of the protocol for Phase1b/2 testing of its investigational cancer drug PV-10 in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with Stage IV melanoma. Pembrolizumab, also known as Keytruda, a product of Merck (MRK), is an immune checkpoint inhibitor approved for treatment of patients with advanced or unresectable melanoma. PV-10 is Provectus's novel investigational drug for cancer that is injected into solid tumors. It is currently undergoing Phase 3 clinical testing in patients with Stage III melanoma. Clinical testing under the new Phase 1b/2 protocol is expected to commence before the end of the year. The FDA granted accelerated approval to pembrolizumab in September 2014, making it the first FDA-approved anti-PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitor. Because pembrolizumab is already FDA-approved, Provectus can commence this study with or without assistance of a partner.
