Program: DocumentaryLanguage: English
DIRECTOR: JT Haines, Tommy Haines, Andrew Sherburne

In the 500 years since the arrival of the conquistadors, gold has remained an obsession, a symbol of wealth and power. Imagine endless fields of gold, just waiting to be taken from the ground. Now imagine that the ground is in a remote Guatemalan village, whose inhabitants do not want their home to be leveled so foreign companies can reap the benefits.
As prices for gold are driven up by fearful investors, Goldcorp's Marlin Mine in the Guatemalan highlands posts record profits. When prices reach highs on Wall Street, the community of San Miguel Ixtahuacán find themselves in the crosshairs of a gold mining operation with an insatiable hunger. For locals of the divided community, though, gold frenzy can mean intimidation, pollution, even murder. Diodora, Gregoria, and Crisanta courageously stand with their community to defend their ancestral lands, whatever the consequences.
Directors JT Haines, Tommy Haines, and Andrew Sherburne document the tragic and inspiring story. Their hard-hitting film includes commentators Noam Chomsky, Magali Rey Rosa, and John Perkins, who explore the exploitative impacts of transnational mining and the global economy by asking, "[W]hat is the value of the one place we have to live?"

An elderly Medford man who died from hypothermia was found lying in his front yard at 9 a.m. Tuesday, the Jackson County Sheriff's Department reported.
A passer-by saw Harry Henderson, 86, unresponsive in his front yard in the 1900 block of South Stage Road in Medford, the door to his home open behind him.
An investigation revealed Henderson apparently had died from hypothermia.
He had power to his home, but his heat had been turned off, and temperatures inside were colder than they were outside, sheriff's spokeswoman Andrea Carlson said.
"He had space heaters in the home, but they weren't turned on," Carlson said.
Sheriff's investigators said bottles of liquid inside the home were frozen solid, Carlson said.
"The house might have had structural damage that allowed the cold air in," she said.
It is not known why Henderson did not turn on his heat, Carlson said.
It is common for hypothermia victims to shed clothes prior to death, Carlson said.
"We did not find clothing outside the home," Carlson said. "We don't know why he left the home without his clothes."
Investigators do not suspect foul play in Henderson's death.
"The house was very clean inside, but freezing," Carlson said. "It's very sad."
The National Weather Service reported an overnight low temperature of 21 degrees for Monday into early Tuesday morning.

my gosh don't apologize for being yourself. Science can be ass and its OK to be upset by it, especially if you're able to put it in perspective so quickly. I think it great that you let us know how its going. Especially because when we're in the same boat and feel like it doesn't happen to anyone else, we can see we're not alone.

Don't be silly! That's what blogs are for. And think of the support and praise you'll get from us when you get everything to work -- we'll know what an achievement it was because we'll know how difficult it was. :)

I know I am just paraphrasing what everyone else has already said but your post yesterday made me feel normal :)
Science is bullshit and we don't always know why we love it but we just do. When things are really bad, it makes the good stuff even better. Go home and throw the ball for your dog....and smile. Do it now. Are you smiling yet? :)

Thanks everyone for being so understanding. At times I think that I'm the only one who gets so frustrated and upset when their research goes poorly.
Things are going much better now in the lab. Today I'm starting to get results. So, you all are right :-)

While parents were out finishing their Christmas shopping, children from St. James were enjoying a Christmas celebration at St. Paul's Lutheran Church Saturday, Dec. 15.
The members of St. Paul's evangelism committee made homemade gloves and hats to give to those children who were interested in some stylish ways to stay warm. Other members purchased the same items and donated them to the church to give to the children. On a day that was a bit dreary, a comfortable and warm stocking cap was appreciated.
The children started their day by decorating a paper bag. They were able to store all of their crafts from throughout the day in the paper bag and bring it home to show their family and friends what they created.
Children also sang Christmas carols and were given the story of Jesus in the chapel of St. Paul's Lutheran Church.
Other activities included a movie and hot dog lunch.
The St. Paul's evangelism committee kid's Christmas celebration is an event that has taken place for some time at St. Paul's Lutheran Church. Kids from the community are given the opportunity to receive warm clothes for the summer and make some crafts while parents run errands in the morning.

HOUSTON -- Warriors point guard Stephen Curry wasn't too familiar with the team when he was drafted in 2009. But he knew he was in for a reclamation project judging by the number of times people told him to get out of Golden State.
"Too many to count," said Curry, who didn't even work out for the Warriors. "But for every three times I heard that, I had someone tell me I could be a part of something special and change things around."
Curry, like most everyone else in the organization, is stopping well short of announcing the Warriors have arrived. Especially after the team limped into the All-Star break with a five-game losing streak.
But as the Warriors enter into the league's annual showcase, it's hard to argue they've at least made the transition from ridiculed to relevant.
Four representatives in this weekend's showcase -- forward David Lee in the All-Star game, Curry in the 3-Point Shootout, and Klay Thompson and Harrison Barnes in the Rising Stars game -- provides a rare opportunity for Warriors fans to experience the pride of their beloved squad on the big stage. It is a toast to the reality that Golden State is an improved franchise.
"It is important that we are respected," Warriors co-owner Joe Lacob said. "I do put credence into that, that people in the basketball world are talking about us in a positive way. Is that what we set out to do? No. Our goal is to win championships. But it does show how we're headed in the right direction."
After the Warriors' disconcerting home loss to Houston on Tuesday, the locker room was as depressing as a Coldplay ballad. In the team's worst stretch of the season, grappling for answers and facing a weeklong break to marinate on it, Warriors coach Mark Jackson interrupted with some perspective.
He wrote "30-22" on the white board and told his players how no one thought they'd be eight games over .500 headed into the break, especially not after injuries took swingman Brandon Rush and center Andrew Bogut out of the lineup.
Jackson explained to them how they'd pulled off quite a feat in building up such a cushion that they can weather a five-game skid. He reminded them that 16 of the final 22 games are at home, and they're still in position to achieve their playoff goal.
"Like I told my guys," Jackson said, "do not let anyone fool you into believing we should be walking around with our heads down. Because there are teams in the Western Conference that would do anything to be sitting where we are sitting."
The winning record, which Bogut said has made the Warriors the hunted, and the heavy presence at All-Star weekend aren't the only evidence of the Warriors' relevance.
Comcast SportsNet Bay Area announced ratings for Golden State games are up 49 percent this season. The Warriors are one of seven NBA teams with a season ticket-holder base of at least 13,000, and they've sold out 15 straight games for first time in 15 years.
Curry's not being selected to the All-Star game caused an uproar among some. Dallas Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle is among those dubbing Jackson coach of the year. And if the election took place now, general manager Bob Myers might be voted Mayor of Oakland by virtue of write-ins.
Wasn't it just under a year ago that Lacob was getting booed at Chris Mullin's jersey retirement? Talk about redemption.
"I believed we could turn this franchise around," said Lacob, who flew his All-Star weekend participants to Houston on his personal jet. "Did I know? I can't say I knew when it would happen or how it would happen. I just believed we could do it. And it's happening. We've got a lot of work to do still, but we're making progress."
Curry doesn't get warnings to get out of Golden State anymore. Instead, he gets congratulated.
Perhaps few on the roster can appreciate the Warriors' rise to relevance more than Curry. He was a rookie when they hit what he called "rock bottom," when the season highlight was coach Don Nelson breaking the career wins record.
Now, when Curry walks around All-Star weekend, he isn't the unlucky young talent who just missed out on playing for a real team. Now he's the respected catalyst for a franchise many think is on to something.
"I knew we could eventually get here, and I just wanted to do my part in turning this around," said Curry. "It feels good."

Foundations That Hold Up in the Heat
ABOUT THE SUIT He could've gone bright, boldanything but plain. His simple pick shows that he's a traditionalist at heart.
ABOUT THE SUITOR He'll be reliable and loyal as your main man, so going on real dates will be the status quo, not worthy of a status update. But he's not very spontaneous, so your time with him could get routine.
ABOUT THE SUIT Pura vida, baby. As his island suit shows, he keeps the carefree vibes (and probably the tequila) a-flowin'.
ABOUT THE SUITOR He'll bring a relaxed "whatever, man" outlook to your relationship. But he could be too perma vacay and not really worth your salt in the long run. Better save it for your margarita glass!

a) well-documented and oft-lauded tour highlights (Hampton, Dayton, Auburn Hills, etc)
b) a terrible looking second set
is doing themselves a SERIOUS disservice.
The Ghost opener is 17 minutes of ferocious full-band communicado: Trey explores his wah pedal with comp-type chording for the first half of the jam, no direction given, no direction taken. It's REALLY relaxed, and the crowd erupts 12 minutes in for no apparent reason other than to say, "as an opener, this will do just fine." When Trey finally does solo proper, its in the hallmark '97 style, all serial-abduction Stevie Ray Vaugn riffs over a bed of chirping alien birds courtesy of the delay loop.
A pair of funk tunes to showcase the new direction, a short breather, and then a crazed Runaway Jim: around 8 min in, things get so heavy that I was convinced this was some sort of mountain-pass test, we were all climbing into thin air and only with some serious skill and a little (ok a LOT) trepidation would we make it down the other side. Ay 10:00, we clear the last pitch, and Trey quiets things down to begin a descent with eerie nimbled ease. The drone still pulses, we're not sure if the mountain has broken free from the glacier or not, it's ALMOST an actual segue into My Friend, Fish is playing a swing beat for chrissakes, down and down and then....
Then the segue to the first and only My Friend, My Friend of the tour! The first on US soil in a year! Not sure why these guys were able to get SO DARK during this tour, but man, this thing is spooky! Trey's laughing at the slowness of this version, but it loses none of its strange medieval-cum-heavy metal charm.
Fans of Limb by Limb should give this a spin, it's equally dark as the Jim and just as celebratory in it's resolution. During this tour (and a few others during the peak years) it seemed as though every song was an opportunity to make a grand musical statement. Whether the thing stated made any sense or was successful wasn't really the point, as we'd soon find out a few songs later. It really felt like the whole band was soloing in unison, drawing on a jazz heritage that often gets lost in the wake of recent shows.
Now, the second set. Stash as an opener was strange to me, even if it had been done once already on this tour. But as it unfolded, and I found a new spot illuminated atop the upper section stairway platform, I made the connection that this song (perhaps more than any other in the catalog) is the perfect synthesis of the phish sound: polyrhythmic, tension-filled, plumbing, a vehicle for top-flight improv. And so it was.
With Bouncing, then Julius, I began to worry about the quality of the song selection for what could have otherwise been a really strong show. Ah, but the band had other ideas for Julius on this frigid December night. Of all the songs that received a "treatment" in 1997, this was the one I would've never foreseen. And for good reason: it hadn't been hinted at before this show and it hasn't happened since. It's trite to say "best Julius ever", not because there are better performances but because fearless exploration and wide-ranging improvisation isn't everyone's cup of tea. Some will say it seems forced, that the gospel blues of Julius doesn't really lend itself to funk, or jazz, or reggae. But to iterate: this was a different time, when no song was sacred, when no basic building block of music couldn't be deconstructed or subverted in some way.
Julius proper ends some 7 min into the 18 minutes that make up this monster. Fish has been yelling his approval for the entire coda, and it's no wonder: he leads the band into a rag-time version of the song first, as an entry point into what becomes a multi-genre affair. A quick jump back to double time, a wall of noise, and a standard Trey eruption, the thing could end here and it would still be talked about in the various Phish nerd web forums. But it doesn't end. Trey picks it up with a staccato strumming, steps on the wah, and perhaps because Mike never strays from the walking bass line of Julius, this doesn't just become another in a litany of funk jams. Instead, it's a strange hybridized thing, with a reggae beat emerging 14 minutes in! Trey cuts everything out for some "Bring the Dude" action, Fish belts out his dancehall reggae yell, and things just get weirder. Scofield-esque blues, strange Page tones, another beat change, and they somehow bring things to a close with Slave.
It's worth noting that this Slave is also FAR from typical. Maybe because of the huge leap of faith everyone just took, this Slave is so patient, so far back in the pocket. Both its reggae rhythms and its bleak, technophobic breakdowns never sounded so raw. Trey really pushes his hollow-body, and these little mini-scapes are just hints of things to come. Once the jam rises up to its typical majestic conclusion, Page instigates a tidal wave of sound that really seemed like it was going to wash us all away. The truest incarnation of Trey's "My Bloody Valentine / Sonic Youth meets Brian Eno" influence, I didn't hear this kind of pure NOISE again until 12/30/98 (out of Coil, no less). The closest sonic analogy would be a shuttle lift-off.
So yeah, it's easy to forget this seemingly de rigueur show. It's far from conventional, and the only thing typical about it is that, like it's Fall '97 brethen, it's typically brilliant.

SAN FRANCISCO -- President Barack Obama is in the Bay Area today for two Democratic fundraisers.
He arrived at San Francisco International Airport Tuesday at 9:18 p.m., a little more than six hours after he landed in Seattle for fundraisers at the homes of Democratic donors Bruce and Ann Blume and Costco CEO Jim Sinegal.
The president, who was accompanied by his senior adviser Valerie Jarrett, stood briefly at the plane's exit and waved to the media before he stepped into a waiting limousine. He was whisked away to the his San Francisco hotel, where he spent the night.
This morning the president attended an event to raise money for the House Majority PAC, a Democratic super PAC, at the Four Seasons Hotel in San Francisco. He then attended a Democratic fundraising luncheon at real estate developer George Marcus' Los Altos Hills home, where the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee raised money for campaigns across the country.
Tickets for the event started at $10,000, for a photo opportunity and lunch, and ran up to $32,400 for a VIP photo opportunity and lunch. In attendance were House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-San Francisco; DCCC Chairman Rep. Steve Israel; and Rep. Anna Eshoo, D-Palo Alto. According to the National Institute on Money in State Politics, Marcus over the years himself has contributed more than $1.5 million to various political causes, mostly Democratic.
Big crowds assembled on the Foothill College campus -- where Obama's helicopter landed -- to watch the motorcade take off for the Marcus home.
It was a sunny, breezy day in Los Altos Hills as Marine One touched down at 11:10 am. There to greet the president were Rep. Mike Honda, D-San Jose, and officials from the Foothill-DeAnza College District.
"We Love Obama," one sign said as the presidential motorcade made its way through Los Altos Hills. There was also a crowd of "net neutrality" protesters greeting the motorcade, two dozen with signs such as "Don't Kill the Internet."
Then farther on came another crowd of protesters, several dozen of varying concerns: "Immigration Not Deportation," "Migrant Lives Matter," "Stop Bombing Gaza" and "Stop US aide to Israel."
Shortly before noon, guests gathered at tables under a tent next to a tennis court in Marcus' sumptuous backyard. The president strode into the tent at 11:59 a.m. and was briefly introduced by Marcus.
Obama said there are two reasons he's here: the fine weather and the connection he made with George and Judy Marcus' infant granddaughter.
"I may take her with me," Obama said, lauding the real estate mogul as someone who has lived the American dream, remembers it and wants to give back. He praised Pelosi, who was seated in the middle of the crowd, saying he needs her back as speaker. He also recognized Eshoo as well as Democratic congressional candidates Michael Eggman and Amanda Renteria. Also in the audience were Pelosi's daughters Christina and Alexandra, and her son Paul Jr.
"One of my main functions here is to just say thank you" for all the support in years past, the president said.
"When we came into office, we were going through the worst economy since the Great Depression," he said, but the record of the past five years is "some pretty remarkable progress" with the economy improved by almost every measure. Also, millions more Americans have health care, he noted, while high school dropouts have decreased and college enrollments have increased.
Silicon Valley represents the spirit of dynamism that typifies the American economy, he said, yet there's still a lot of anxiety as profits have accrued almost only to those at the very top while the middle class "is stuck; they feel like they're treading water."
"It feels as if Washington doesn't work" and ignores those in need, he said.
Investing in things like early childhood education will bring massive returns, Obama said, and 28 million would benefit from raising the federal minimum wage. Helping working families with child care would relieve a great burden, and ensuring equal pay for women who do equal work would help support families, he said.
"We have some big technical issues -- what's the next big energy breakthrough that's going to help us fully contain the impacts of climate change," he said -- and economic issues, too.
"But if we just took some common-sense steps, this country would grow faster... and families would be better off," he said.
The reason things aren't working is that one party is interested only in proving that government doesn't work, and saying no to those kinds of steps, Obama said.
"I hope that the reason you're here today is that you want to get something done. ... We have to break this cycle of gridlock and cynicism," he said, adding that both parties can and should work to advance the common good. "I'd love nothing more than a loyal and rational opposition, but that's not what we have right now."
Democrats must overcome their "congenital defect" of not voting in mid-term elections, he said, and get as fired up about November as they did about his own campaigns in 2008 and 2012. "I need partners, I need help."
The president concluded his remarks at 12:13 and the press was ushered out before he began taking questions. He did acknowledge his admiration of one reporter's fedora as the press departed.
Obama will fly to Los Angeles this afternoon to attend another fundraiser and then speak to community college students Thursday. He will return to Washington, D.C., on Friday for meetings with the presidents of Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador to discuss illegal immigration from Central America.
Republicans have criticized Obama for not canceling the long-planned fundraising trip.
"With all that's happening in our country and around the world -- wildfires, droughts and international crises, I think everyone can agree the last thing the president should be doing right now is raising money for Democrats," said Republican National Committee spokesman Michael Short.
White House officials, however, say Obama is able to carry out both his presidential duties and attend to crises while traveling.
"In terms of fundraising, it's a responsibility that presidents in both parties for generations have been responsible for," White House spokesman Josh Earnest said Tuesday. "And the president, like his predecessors, is interested in supporting members of his party who are on the ballot in 2014 -- and that's part of what he'll be doing over the course of this week."
Obama was expected to take off for Los Angeles about 1:20 p.m. from SFO.

A bill to lower the legal blood alcohol level to operate a vehicle is headed for debate in the state Senate. By lowering the legal blood alcohol level it would take fewer drinks before a driver in Michigan is guilty of operating under the influence.
Currently in Michigan the law says your considered drunk with a blood alcohol level of 0.10 and 0.08 is considered impaired driving. If the bill passes then the 0.08 levels would be considered drunk driving.
Thirty-four states already have a legal limit of 0.08 for drunk driving.
Local law enforcement say that by lowering these levels it would help them do their job better. Federal government is pressuring Michigan to change the limit.
If Michigan does not pass the drunk driving standard by October 1, 2003, then the state will loose $9.5 million in federal highway funding.
More important than funding doctors and law enforcement says by lowering the legal blood alcohol limit it would make Michigan roadways safer.
Doctors say that the difference between a blood alcohol level of 0.10 and 0.08 works out to be one drink an hour.

I heard at Bowiezone people pay other people to shit in their mouths and then if you refuse to shit in someone's mouth they hold you down and punch you and then take turns shitting in your mouth.C'est magnifique, mais ce n'est pas la guerre
Is it true that the posters at Bowiezone once raped a gorilla? All at them at the same time? Because that's kind of disgusting.http://bizarrewebcomic.com
I once met someone from Bowiezone in person. At least, I assumed he was from Bowiezone. I was only judging by how viciously he was raping me.
I'm disappointed by the reaction on this thread. TW's old news now, and BowieZone's where it's at: *Intelligent, witty discussion. (The key insight on the Libya thread: 'I watched Gaddafi on television last night and today. The man is insane and the situation very scary!!!')*The finest Bowie commentators. (A board that's home to both Claude and Dogz.)*A registration system that actually works. (Although history proves that simply signing up at BZ is itself a bannable offence.)I don't know if they're still producing the annual BowieZone calendar but, really, when has TW shown that kind of class?Rather than words comes the thought of high windows
Cum with me to BOWIEZONE! ;)-----------------------------------------------------Claude

As if "Star Wars" geeks haven't already had enough excitement recently, Zack Snyder is developing his own "Star Wars" film, apart from anything Disney has planned with its purchase of Lucasfilm. Disney has already announced plans to reboot the series.
The Los Angeles Times reported in November that Snyder, who directed "Man of Steel" and "300," had no interest in directing the hotly anticipated seventh film in the "Star War" series. But according to Vulture.com, the statement was a bit of misdirection: Snyder is in fact developing a separate Star Wars project for Lucasfilm.
A well-played bit of misdirection, Mr. Snyder. Well played, indeed.
Reports say Snyder's film will be an as-yet-untitled Jedi epic loosely based on Akira Kurosawa's 1954 classic "Seven Samurai," with the ronin and katana being replaced by the Force-wielding knights and their iconic lightsabers.
Some of us who are old enough can remember that one of the first 1970s "Star Wars" comic books was based on the same idea. You're not fooling us, Mr. Snyder.
It's not clear where Snyder's untitled Jedi film would fall within the Star Wars chronology, but one insider said it won't be considered part of the "numbered" episodes, but rather a stand-alone film set sometime post—Episode VI events, meaning the next phase of the franchise development is much broader than previously thought.
This might be too much for the geeks to handle. Even I'm starting to get faint chest pains.
Kurosawa's influential "Seven Samurai" ("The Magnificent Seven" was the American remake) concerns a small agrarian town in 16th-century Japan that's routinely pillaged by bandits. Fed up with the annual shakedown, its farmers retain the services of seven masterless samurai to defend their harvest.
One of the film's stars, Toshiro Mifune, was initially offered the role of Obi-Wan Kenobi, reports say. George Lucas has cited the classic as one of his favorites, telling U.K. paper Telegraph in 2005 that "it's a brilliant, brilliant film, and every time I see it I can't believe the magic mixture of a great story and great acting and humor and action and suspense -- wonderful cinema. The art of moving pictures is on every frame of this movie."
In October, Disney CEO Bob Iger announced the acquisition of Lucasfilm. He said that after Episode VII, "our long-term plan is to release a new Star Wars feature film every two to three years." Disney has not found a director yet for "Episode VII."
Vulture reported that Snyder would start production after Disney begins its planned 2015 release of "Star Wars: Episode VII." Disney has not commented on Snyder's plans.

Behind the scenes


text: About six years ago, we did a major addition to our house in Florida resulting in needing to add another septic. Neighbor behind us had a well on her property too close to where our second septic was being put. We asked neighbor if she would consider moving her existing well a little further away on her property if we paid for a new pump and drilling of a new well and allow her to select the company to do the work. She obliged. I believe she selected the company her did her initial well. Her lot is probably between 1/4 to 1/3 acre, to give you size of area, and the distance from her old well to where she drilled her new well is probably 50-70 ft. away. We had city waters and assumed most others around did as well, but found out in the middle of the renovation she did not. Anyway, flash forward now. About four months ago (remember the new well was done in 2008), she informed my husband that her water has a rotten egg smell that comes and goes, and all she knows is she never had it with her old well. She didn't specify to my husband if the smell started immediately after she got the new well or exactly when it started. My husband was so taken aback to just be hearing about this years later, so he didn't think to ask if her if she did things like contact the company that did the new well, or verify exactly when the smell started. Personally, I would have to believe she would have called them if it was anytime in the months after getting the new well, but regardless, here we are, hearing about this from an elderly lady who is wishing she never moved her well for the couple behind her doing a renovation, even if her old well could have started having the same problem. Guess that's my reason for this post. Could this have happened in her old pump, too, meaning, could she just out of the blue, started having a rotten egg smell? Additionally, regardless of that answer, what is some advice I can offer to her to help get rid of this smell. I'm trying to be sympathetic. Thanks. For what it's worth, I lived in a house located about three blocks from hers/mine growing up, and we had a well, and it had a little smell to the water (some friends said smelled like rotten eggs). Plus, a house a mile from here that we rented while renovating our house had so much iron in the water, it would turn my hair. Just saying, the water around here has some strong minerals in it, for sure, but apparently her old well water 70 ft away didn't bother her and she wishes for that again!

We revisit the research and development (R&D) pipeline quite a bit, because it is a crucially important aspect of modern medicine. Having recently released our Medicines in Development report on the 180 medicines in the pipeline to treat diabetes and related conditions, it is important to recognize the steps that fuel innovation and medical advances.
The Catalyst
By 2020, nearly half of all Americans will have at least one chronic condition. As more and more people are afflicted by chronic disease, it is increasingly important to develop new ways to prevent, manage, and treat these life-altering conditions.
The existing model of bringing new medicines to patients is a costly, exhaustive, and thorough process. In fact, to develop a new medicine under the federal process takes about $1 billion and 10 years — with a failure rate of roughly 99 percent.
Developing new medicines is a lengthy and complex process, relying heavily on volunteer participation to evaluate potential therapies for safety and effectiveness in clinical trials. Without the patients who volunteer to participate in clinical research, the development of new treatments would not be possible.
Challenges in Patient Recruitment
Today, I had the opportunity to offer PhRMA's perspective on inadequate intellectual property (IP) rights and other major trade barriers around the world during the U.S.
Despite the inevitable hurdles and roadblocks that arise throughout the R&D process, this past week we highlighted the medical breakthroughs aimed to improve the lives of patients around the world.
CMS recently released a proposed rule that would significantly change Part D, the prescription drug program in Medicare, potentially jeopardizing coverage, choice, access and affordability for beneficiaries. In a Feb.
A new book, the Cure in the Code: How 20th Century Law is Undermining 21st Century Medicine, provides a fascinating overview of advances in biomedical science with the potential to revolutionize how diseases are treated by providing patients with more targeted therapies.
At the International Trade Commission (ITC) hearing on the investigation into India's trade policies, Rod Hunter, PhRMA's Senior Vice President for International Affairs, highlighted the industry's concerns and hopes surrounding India's pol
Only by working together can we produce results that will have a very real impact on the lives of patients and families
Many biopharmaceutical companies are actively engaged in the research and development of therapies to treat rare disease, despite challenges such as much smaller patient populations than more common diseases. Companies seek opportunities to partner with patient advocacy organizations, academia and the government in order to make even greater progress against rare disease, which collectively affect 1 in 10 Americans.
There's been a lot of discussion lately about the need to control rising health care costs, and the role of new medicines and medical technology. Nowhere has this discussion been sharper than in the area of oncology. At PhRMA, we've been joining in many of these discussions, working with other stakeholders to identify solutions to sustain continued progress and support efficient delivery of optimal patient care.
Within the medical community there is so much truth to the saying, "knowledge is power." Whether it's sharing information about a new medicine in development that could save a patient's life, or sharing resources and ideas to change a patient's life, it is essential that patients, doctors, and other members of the health care ecosystem stay well informed and disseminate their knowledge.
It's no coincidence that February is American Heart Month and host to Valentine's Day, and as a result, there is no better time to focus on your heart.
In last week's #RarePOV tweetchat, leading rare disease advocacy organizations and individual patient advocates came together to share resources and plans for the upcoming international Rare Disease Day.
With the tragic news of Philip Seymour Hoffman's death, the national conversation around addiction has gained a new focal point. Though Hoffman died from a heroin overdose, his death has intensified an ongoing discussion about the abuse and misuse of painkillers and other medicines.
The importance of protecting intellectual property cannot be overstated. For the biopharmaceutical industry, ensuring our ability to innovate is essential for continued R&D to help patients live longer, healthier lives.
Every day there is a war to wage against the world's most devastating diseases. It is a fight we must win to make the world a safer, healthier place for our patients, and this week we discussed some of the battles currently underway.
Genetic Alliance Launches First Pilot Program to Gather Perspectives on Benefit-Risk Assessment in Development of New Treatment
As highlighted in an earlier Catalyst post, PhRMA is partnering with Genetic Alliance on an exciting project to enhance patient engagement in the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Patient-Focused Drug Development initiative. Genetic Alliance recently launched the first pilot program, partnering with four trusted organizati
A new study examines the economic impact of India's current approach to intellectual property rights as it affects pharmaceutical products and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI).

Today, on World Cancer Day, we celebrate the remarkable progress that's been made in the fight against a devastating disease that has touched all of us.

How To Buy Socks
There is no other part of the anatomy so crucial to athletic performance
than the human foot. As the base of our structural support system and home to
thousands of nerve endings and sweat glands, our feet play an important role in
our body's biomechanical efficiency and thermal regulation. It is estimated
that 3-out-of-4 Americans experience chronic foot pain. Even more experience
discomfort from blisters or cold feet.
If you've had consistent problems or
other discomforts in your feet, you'll need to answer a few questions before
you buy your next pair of socks.
Today many manufacturers use special moisture-wicking fibers as well as
unique construction techniques and patented anatomical designs to create
technical performance socks based on sports-specific use. Before you shop, it
pays to have an overview of the different materials:

Guess what, people! Tonight, the Real World reunion episode aired, and that means only one thing—you get a bonus "Ryan the Real World Homophobe" update! The show was drama-filled, obviously, and all the best Ryan-related moments are inside.
Right off the bat, McKenzie came out swinging, asking Ryan whether he was Bipolar or on drugs (because, to explain his behavior, one of the two had to be true). Immediately, Ryan went on the defensive-cum-offensive and hurled insults her way:
Then, host Marie Menounos asked the roommates whether Ryan was homophobic or "Preston-phobic." Jemmye chimed in right away with "Homosexual!" Obviously, Ryan did not like this:
Later, the Ryan/Preston drama was hashed out, and—while Preston came off as a mature man who learned from his mistakes and was willing to own up to them—Ryan once again reverted to petty, childish insults and defense mechanisms:
And finally, Menounos said something to Ryan that we've probably all thought the entire season, and he answered nonsensically, natch.
It's been real!

64% less sat fat • 50% less fat • 24% fewer calories than the original recipe—see the comparison. Mamma mia! Sick of the usual? Grill a tasty better-for-you pizza that's quick and easy, too. From eatbetteramerica.
Preparation & Directions
Heat gas or charcoal grill. Cut 18x12-inch sheet of heavy-duty foil; place on large cookie sheet. Spray foil with cooking spray; set aside.
Place pepper halves on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 3 to 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until crisp-tender. Remove from grill; cool. Cut into thin slices.
Unroll dough on sprayed foil. Starting at center, press out dough to form 13x9-inch rectangle. Brush top of dough with 1 teaspoon oil.
Invert foil, placing dough oil side down directly on grill rack; peel off foil and return to cookie sheet, sprayed side up. Cook uncovered 2 to 4 minutes or until bottom of dough is golden brown. (Watch carefully to prevent burning.) With wide metal pancake turner, turn crust over. Cook 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds longer or until bottom is set but not brown. Carefully remove crust from grill; place browned side up on foil on cookie sheet.
Top crust with pizza sauce, 1 cup of the cheese, the grilled pepper slices and sausage. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese and the oregano.
Slide pizza from foil onto grill. Cover grill; cook 3 to 5 minutes or until bottom crust is golden brown and cheese is melted.
What is "Healthified"?
We've replaced ingredients with great-tasting alternatives to create better-for-you recipes that are just as yummy as the original.
Don't want to grill? Make the pizza in the oven by following package directions that use a pre-bake time. You won't have a grilled pepper, so slice a fresh one and use it instead.
We like the Italian cheese blend, but reduced-fat mozzarella cheese could be used instead.
Success Hint
Have all toppings ready to go because the pizza cooks quickly. If the crust is cooking too fast, move the pizza to a cooler part of grill or reduce heat.
We recommend using organic ingredients where available. For more information see Why Organic?

MORAGA -- A third consecutive West Coast Conference crown for the Saint Mary's College men's basketball team is in serious jeopardy after the Gaels suffered a 77-60 loss to No. 5 Gonzaga on Thursday night.
The Gaels had their nine-game winning streak snapped and fell to 10-2 in conference play in front of a sellout crowd of 3,500 at McKeon Pavilion. Meanwhile the Bulldogs remain unbeaten against WCC foes.
Saint Mary's (21-5) will need Gonzaga (24-2, 11-0 WCC) to lose two of its remaining five conference games in order to have a shot at sharing the regular-season crown.
"We had a chance to control it tonight, and we missed on an opportunity," said Saint Mary's coach Randy Bennett. "(Gonzaga) took advantage of it."
Saint Mary's guard Stephen Holt said the Bulldogs, who had their streak of 11 straight conference titles snapped by the Gaels last season, were more physical and hungrier.
Bennett thought his team played well for much of the game. Rather, it was a five-minute lapse to start the second-half that proved to be the Gaels' undoing.
Gonzaga recovered from a halftime deficit by scoring seven quick points out of the break. The surge turned into a 20-4 run, and the Gaels couldn't make up the difference.
"They just came out with a lot more energy," Holt said of the big run. "We just weren't ready in the second half like we should have been. ... That one lapse against great teams, you're not going to beat them if you have those lapses."
Gary Bell Jr. paced Gonzaga with 20 points, connecting on all four of his 3-point attempts in the second half. Kevin Pangos added 18 points.
A hot-shooting first-half by Matthew Dellavedova wasn't enough for the Gaels. The reigning WCC Player of the Year scored 19 of his team-high 22 points in the opening period by connecting on 5 of 7 attempts from beyond the arc.
He hit back-to-back 3-pointers with under 1:30 to go in the half to tie the score at 30. Jordan Giusti, a walk-on redshirt freshman, then drilled a corner 3-pointer for the Gaels' first lead since the opening minute.
"If Matt doesn't hit some really tough shots in the first half, then we don't get back on top," Bennett said. "I thought he was exceptional. He had guys fouling him, pushing him. He fought through all that stuff and still was really good offensively."
Dellavedova's only basket of the second-half, a 3-pointer with 6:49 to go, pulled Saint Mary's as close as it would get after Gonzaga's run, at 56-52.
Holt finished with 17 points and picked up the scoring load when Dellavedova went quiet.
Kelly Olynyk scored Gonzaga's first six points and had 12 by halftime. The 7-foot forward finished with 17 points after scoring 31 in the teams' first meeting this year.
Olynyk also had seven rebounds as the Gaels were beaten on the boards -- a rare occurrence for the WCC's best rebounding team. Gonzaga finished with a 37-25 advantage.

Defending Mrs. BushDecember 13,2012
Defending Mrs. Bush
I was disappointed in your recent article about a personnel matter at Union Elementary School. What happened to innocent until proven guilty? Mrs. Bush has been teaching at Union School for many years. My child was in her class during the same year as one of the parents quoted in your article. I volunteered in the class frequently and did not find it chaotic. Nor did I find Mrs. Bush, a disaster. If you are going to print such comments, you should at least ask around to see if other parents might have a different view. I am not trying to belittle the parents concerns. Certainly, they should be addressed. Like all of us, Mrs. Bush is not perfect. But a teachers job is a hard one. And your article did a great disservice to someone who has worked hard and cared deeply for our kids.

AUGUSTA, Ga. -- The votes have been counted and the results are in for the new logo, seal and color scheme for Augusta's "New U."
Results were compiled through an online survey that was sent to Augusta State University and Georgia Health Sciences University alumni, faculty and students -- 3,183 votes total.
Of those who took the survey, 44 percent voted for the logo that was chosen, 39 percent for the seal and 55 percent for the color palette.
The current students were the only ones who did not agree with the seal that was chosen, while faculty and staff did not agree on the color palette.
The majority of people who took the survey were alumni, making up 36.2 percent, while 29.2 percent were students.
The chosen logo has the abbreviation "GRU," with Georgia Regents University written out below it and and then Augusta underneath that. One of the fonts used in the logo is from Augusta State University's logo.
The seal has the arsenal oak from the current ASU logo and the old MCG building from the GHSU logo. It also has a flame design based on an old Maori symbol meaning "eternal bond."
"We wanted to make it contemporary, but still simple and timeless," said Beverly Andersen, chief strategy officer for Trend Influence, the Atlanta-based company that designed the logos in a news release.
The color palette chosen consists of dark blue and silver gray. The blue is the same one used by Augusta State University.
Andersen says the blue symbolizes "trust, intelligence and authority" and the silver gray represents "security, reliability and maturity."

SANTA CLARA -- Tight end Vernon Davis practiced Thursday for the first time since sustaining a concussion in the 49ers' 42-13 loss Sunday at Seattle.
Davis participated in a limited, noncontact role and appears on course to play in his 91st consecutive game Sunday, when the 49ers (10-4-1) host the Arizona Cardinals (5-10).
"I'm managing, and I'm taking it one day at a time," said Davis, who sustained the first-quarter concussion on a sideline hit by safety Kam Chancellor to break up a potential reception at the Seahawks' 2-yard line.
Davis confirmed that he didn't sustain a whiplash effect. "Everyone thought he hit me in the chest, but he hit me in the helmet," Davis added. "It happened so fast."
Davis must pass an impact test to officially be cleared for Sunday's game.
"It's been a real positive for us," coach Jim Harbaugh said of the line's durability. "An offensive line that plays together, that has that cohesiveness, it's very important for that unit."
Left tackle Joe Staley and left guard Mike Iupati received Pro Bowl invitations Wednesday. Alternate status was given to Goodwin, right guard Alex Boone and right tackle Anthony Davis. The NFC team consists of no right tackles but rather two other left tackles in the Seahawks' Russell Okung and the Washington Redskins' Trent Williams.
Goodwin dressed for practice but left during the stretching period because of an illness. He has started every game at center since joining the 49ers last season. Offensive coordinator Greg Roman said the line's continuity has been "very helpful" in terms of communication and recognition before snaps.
