"But, it was NOT gun registration and therefore the Democrats refused to adopt this common sense proposal."
Wrong. The Democratic bill Hatch and Lee just filibustered would impose a 15 year felony jail sentence on people who make a gun registry. Just like Obama said, you side is content to lie about it.
"The bill would have done nothing to stop the Newtown tragedy and wouldn't do anything to prevent criminals from getting guns."
Absolutely it would make it harder for criminals to get guns. Think about it this way, you support 21 as the age to buy alcohol right? You know some people are going to obtain alcohol anyway, but doesn't that limit on purchasing make it harder for underage drinkers to get alcohol? The expanded background checks aren't going to completely prevent criminals from getting guns, but the idea that it won't reduce the number that get guns flies in the face of logic.
Oh and... stop blaming Democrats for the bill being watered down. It was your side that weakened the bill to the point it wouldn't have done too much.

It is shameful that these 2 "men" kow-towed to the extremist gun lobby
($$$) and voted against principle: common sense background checks. Just because
a loud, well-financed minority told them to.
Rex Lee is rolling in his grave...

Let both sides now work together on solutions that will
1) Not violate the rights of peaceful law abiding people.
2) Actually will help solve the problem of violence in our society.
May I make a few suggestions to kick off the discussion.
Teach morality in the schools.
Encourage young women to not try to have it all, teach them if they are going to have children, they need to raise them correctly. To stay home in their childrens formative years, and provide them with a basis of emotional stability, and teach their kids right from wrong. As a society we made a conscious decision to encourage women to enter the work force and send their kids to day care, therefore we can reverse this if we choose to.
As a society we need to recognise that not just the body can have medical problems but the brain can too. We need to commit to providing adequate mental health care to all who need it.
We need to look at our immigration, and if there are countries whose immigrants are sufficiently more violent than average, we should not allow immigration from these countries.

@Fitness Freak and others,
Explain to me how background checks "penalize" law-abiding citizens?? I would also like to know just how that national gun confiscation program would work...i.e. federal agents showing up at the door of every single gun owner in America? Really??
If you are that paranoid, you should not have a weapon of any kind.

Stop and think - the Boston Bombing killed three people. It is against federal law to possess any form of a bomb. The Sandy Hook School shooting killed 26 people, and you can buy the weapon used in this shooting on the internet without a background check. I would like to ask our Senators if this makes sense to them. Both Senator Hatch and Senator Lee should be ashamed of themselves. They have blocked a reasonable law that could saved some lives. I would love to hear their reasoned explanation for this nonsense. I'm a life long republican and I will not vote for Lee in the future. I hope Senator Hatch sticks to his word, this time, and doesn't run.

Hands up: How many of you received at least 3 robo-calls from the NRA in the
last few months leading up to the vote of this bill? How many received flyers in
the mail soliciting money? Everyone I know has been deluged by the
well-financed and loud machine of the NRA. They have been filling the airwaves
and using the panic-driven talk shows of Rush, Hannity, etc. to get all of us
deathly afraid of ANY restrictions on our guns. They pestered our Senators and
made them all quake in their boots at the thought of going against them.
You know this is why this bill was defeated. It has NOTHING to do with the Constitution!!

All the reasons that are given for universal 'this' or 'that' are the very reasons for getting back to constitutional principles, i.e. States Rights. There is not one federal law that couldn't be adjudicated better at the state level, including so called gun registration laws. But, let there be no mistake about all this. The more government action, the less dependence on God (or if the left doesn't like that, then use 'self'). This is all about government control and removing God from a 'right'. If you can remove God from those 'rights', then you have given control over to Government, and Liberty dies along with all other freedoms. That is why those who sacrifice the most are the last to surrender. Believe in God and believe in America.

While most Americans may support background checks, this bill was flawed in the way it mandated implementation. Personally, I would support a background check performed in conjuntion with getting my driver's license. Just like my motorcycle endorsement, I pay $10, they run the check, my license has a "gun purchaser" endorsement on it. I violate the law so that I am no longer qualified, they confiscate that license and issue one without the endorsement. Does it solve everything? No. Is it a good first step? Yes. Private sales could be validated by simply asking to see my endorsement. You don't want it, you don't have to pay for it. This bill didn't close an "internet loophole." I've bought and sold guns over the internet. EVERY one of those transactions had to go through an FFL. High capacity magazines? In NY, my grandfather's Ruger .22 pistol bought in 1963 is "high capacity" with nine shots and they've never made another size magazine. You can't present something unworkable and then cry "foul" when it doesn't fly. Make a workable proposal, and it will pass.

10CC: Sadly, the senate doesn't have to do this. The courts have already upheld a candidates right to lie about their voting record. They have upheld the right of companies to lie about qualities of their product so long as it does not specifically violate FDA restrictions. They have upheld the rights of individuals to lie about their military service, decorations and valor so long as it is not done for the express purpose of defrauding or obtaining monetary benefits directly from charities or support organizations. Freedom of speech has been twisted to cover burning flags, flipping off a police officer, picketing a grieving familie's funeral and pornography. Forgive, or at least understand those who try to keep similar abominable mutations from being inflicted on the 2nd ammendment. That is not to say we can't have background checks - even universal background checks. But it should be implemented in a relatively painless and transparent manner, not through heavy-handed policies. Presently the government does not pursue charges against even 0.1% of those attempting to pass a background check illegally. Fix that first.

So, the response to a serious epidemic of gun violence in our nation, is to do .
. . nothing? It's not just voting against the current bill. There is a
complete lack of solution from individuals like Hatch and Lee. Gun control is a
small aspect of this issue, but it is still a real aspect. Cowering behind
flawed interpretation of the 2nd amendment is not a solution. That is harping
on a single point ad nauseum until you get your way.
The current gun control laws in place can't be enforced because contradictory laws and regulations have been put in place by members of congress (with direct and indirect ties to the gun lobby) to prevent the ATF and states from properly enforcing and implementing the original laws. Then the cry from the 2nd amendment crowd is "enforce the current regs"! The fix is in because the price is right. Lee and Hatch are just more obstructionists from the party of "no".

Events of this week should have made it clear that what we have is a people
problem, not a gun problem, not even a pressure cooker problem, but a people
Were we to take away all pressure cookers, or all baseball bats, or all cars, or all guns, or all knives, bad or mentally ill people will simply choose to make use of different tool to do what it is that they do. Eliminating any one tool will not solve the problem and we can't eliminate all possible tools.
Given this let us work together to solve this problem keeping this in mind. If we don't characterise a problem properly, it is not possible to successfully solve the problem.

Aceroinox asserted "...Without universal gun registration, there is no way
to discover non-compliance, and hence no way to enforce a universal background
check law. In other words, if the government doesn't know where the guns
are, how can they track sales transactions?"
Not only is it possible to perform background checks without a gun registry, but the bill would have made it a felony to create a registry.
Its a shame that this bill died on the back of ignorance (as seen here) and lies (such as the NRA's distortions about the impact on family sales).
Utah was failed by its two Senators, which is all the more unsettling as they are smart enough to know better. They played into the paranoid fantasies rather than the facts.
Google the bill and read it
Sad, sad, sad. And sadder still that gun owners will not benefit from the protections built into the bill, such as the right to carry types of guns through states whose laws would otherwise forbid.

Please reread Senator Lee's quote at the beginning of the article. That is how I feel on this issue. The Newtown Shooting would not have been avoided by any of these legislative actions. The Boston Marathon tragedy shows that legislation against guns does not reduce the potential for violent acts of large proportions. We must deal with people to mitigate (it's a really important word look it up) the risk of them happening. All in all we have already done a great job of mitigating the risk of violence in this country.

The Pitch Doctor Will See You Now
After 26 Years in the Minors, Pitching Coach Rick Knapp Turns Around the Tigers
With his retro-style glasses, unfashionable gray crew cut and a gut that has stomached too many greasy dinners in two-stoplight towns, pitching coach Rick Knapp doesn't look like anyone's sexy offseason acquisition. But to the Detroit Tigers, that's exactly what he's turning out to be.
With two months and 56 games to go in the season, the Tigers are sitting atop the American League's Central Division, on pace to win 11 more games than last year. That's when the team ranked in the bottom third of Major League Baseball in three important pitching categories — earned run average (27th), opponent's batting average (23rd) and runs allowed (27th). So far this season, the Tigers have moved up at least 13 spots in each of those categories.
The pitching staff's ace, Justin Verlander, is currently 12-5 after going 11-17 last year. Veteran Edwin Jackson, who arrived from Tampa Bay, has cut his ERA by 40% heading into Wednesday's game. And in his rookie year, 20-year-old flamethrower Rick Porcello looks well worth the record contract the Tigers gave him out of high school in 2007.
Much of the credit, if not all of it, belongs to Mr. Knapp, who before this season was one of baseball's invisible men. For 26 long years, he toiled in the game's backwaters as a classic baseball lifer, waiting for a call-up to the Major Leagues. Now, at age 47, he is finally here.
"There were times I thought about doing something else," Mr. Knapp said as he sat on the dugout bench at the largely empty Comerica Park this week, four hours before the Tigers took on the Baltimore Orioles, "but then I could never figure out what that might be."
For decades, a leading qualification among major league-pitching coaches was that they were the longtime drinking buddies of their managers. (Think Art Fowler and Billy Martin). Little known even to avid baseball fans, Mr. Knapp served as the minor-league pitching coordinator the past dozen years for the Twins, a team that operates on a shoestring budget but year after year produced efficient and effective pitching staffs the only way it could afford to —through its farm system.
In an era when middling starters cost $10 million a year, a pitching coach like Mr. Knapp, with a knack for developing young talent, is a symbol, even a necessity, of his time.
A successful pitching coach today is part scout, part teacher, and part sports psychologist. He has to be enough of an organizational strategist to set the franchise's course for the development of pitchers—the most in-demand and expensive commodity in the game—but flexible enough to understand each pitcher's unique needs, talents, and tendencies.
"The best guys are able to use their methodology around different styles," said Ron Darling, the broadcaster and former standout pitcher. "You don't have everyone try to do the same thing. When I see that, I know a guy is bad."
Bob Apodaca, the veteran pitching coach for the Colorado Rockies, said his job is to digest all the data, from the computer analysis of arm motions to what happens when his pitchers throw first-pitch curveballs with runners in scoring position, and come up with the simplest possible plan for success.
"When I first get a pitcher I don't touch him," Mr. Apodaca said. "I just watch him and then I see what he likes to do and what he has trouble with. Then I ask him questions. What's your stronger side? What's your best pitch? Do you always throw it well? Why only sometimes? When you miss, where do you miss? I get him talking."
Jim Rantz, the director of the Twins' minor-league operations, said Mr. Knapp made an immediate impression on him in 1997, his first season as the club's minor-league pitching coordinator, when he produced a computerized log of every pitch by every pitcher in the organization—this at a time when baseball was resisting statistical analysis.
"He did all this profiling and had all these records," said Mr. Rantz. "I knew he was a guy who'd be at the major-league level one day."
Just when that day might come was unclear. Despite his success with the Twins, Mr. Knapp has been somewhat out of step with recent conventional wisdom. While baseball executives everywhere were falling in love with hulking, power-pitching prospects who could throw the ball through the door of a bank vault, Mr. Knapp preached control, first-pitch strikes and the ability to change speeds.
Roger Clemens, Curt Schilling and John Smoltz crafted Hall of Fame-caliber careers with the assistance of split-fingered fastballs. Mr. Knapp frowned on it, viewing the splitter as a "trick pitch" that harmed young arms more than it helped them.
"If you spread your first two fingers out and extend your arm as you throw the ball as hard as you can, that doesn't feel real good," he says.
After years of seeing Mr. Knapp develop pitchers for a division rival in Minnesota, Tigers' manager Jim Leyland finally gave him a promotion to the big leagues in October, hiring the coach to oversee a staff filled with talented young arms in need of development and fine-tuning. The old school Mr. Leyland, who keeps a pack of Marlboro Reds on his desk, usually withholds compliments about his coaches. But he couldn't help himself with Mr. Knapp, with whom he clearly shares a kinship since Mr. Leyland himself spent almost two decades in the minors.
"I just let Rick Knapp do his job, and he's doing a hell of a job," Mr. Leyland says.
That job can be vastly different depending on the pitcher. Ask Mr. Jackson, now in his seventh year in the big leagues, what he likes about Mr. Knapp, and he says it's the way Mr. Knapp lets "us find ourselves."
" 'Stay smooth,' that's what he keeps telling me," Mr. Jackson said. "Really simple. Everything in one motion, just stay smooth."
But at a locker 20 feet away, rookie Fu-te Ni from Taiwan, describes a completely different pitching coach.
"He tells me what pitch to throw in every situation," Mr. Ni said. "He's very hands-on."
For Mr. Porcello, the young sensation with the blazing fastball but a jerky delivery, Mr. Knapp has set two goals that have little to do with blowing hitters away—learn to repeat his delivery on each pitch so he can fall back on this motion when he gets into trouble, and throw a more-effective curveball to mix up his speeds.
"The elements of success don't have anything to do with velocity," Mr. Knapp said. "Velocity is just one element of domination."
Mr. Knapp's transition from career minor leaguer to the big-league dugout has had its bumps. Tigers veteran pitcher Bobby Seay said early in the season Mr. Knapp tried to get his pitchers to show up to the ballpark early and stretch as a group.
"He learned pretty quick that sort of thing wasn't going to fly with major leaguers," Mr. Seay says.
Still, Mr. Knapp's handiwork was evident Monday night, when the Orioles shelled Mr. Verlander for five first-inning runs. After designated hitter Luke Scott crushed a two-run double, Mr. Knapp trotted out to the mound with a simple message. "Just make a good pitch and we're going to get out of this mess," he told Mr. Verlander. "It starts with one good pitch."
For Mr. Knapp, the trip to the mound was more a stall tactic than a pep talk, since he was merely trying to get Mr. Verlander to do something they have been talking about and working on since the spring—slow down.
Two batters later, Mr. Verlander was out of the jam. He then pitched seven scoreless innings, allowing the Tigers to win on Clete Thomas's walk-off home run in the bottom of ninth.
In the locker room after the game, Mr. Verlander said he was as proud of his performance as any in his career, and while he didn't mention Mr. Knapp by name, he might as well have.
"When I was younger, if I did bad in the first inning I would never make it out of the fourth," he said. "This is the first one like this for me. The whole time I just tried to slow it down, slow it down, that's the key for me because usually it's been about speed it up, speed it up. Instead I just slowed it down."

Director: Harry S Morgan
Company: Eurotique Entertainment
Cast: Renee (I), Maria (I), Cassandra (I), Andrea (I), Carmen (I), Barbara (I), Julia (I), Claudia (I)
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Gonzo
The locations may not be as exotic and the music not quite as interesting as in Vestal Virgins 3, but fortunately, director Harry S. Morgan still has an eye for beautiful, mostly-East European babes - and they've got enough moves to keep this tape very interesting.
We still wish we understood German, as Harry seems to be an engaging guy, often taking part in the foreplay before each scene heats up. For instance, Harry takes a shaving brush and lathers tattooed brunette Cassandra's entire torso, giving the impression that someone is going to shave her. Alas, no such luck - but it is nice to see the creamy soap being rubbed off by some excellent horsey and cowgirl action.
Another segment has Harry encouraging blond Claudia to dress up in a red lace and vinyl outfit. Maybe that's what inspires the amazing amount of energy she puts into her gyrations as she's muff-dived and plowed missionary and doggie style on her bed.
If it's aural you're after, wait for paralegal Carmen in the finale. After a photo session on a pool table, a stud enters her pussy from the front and back, eliciting throaty pleasure sounds from the busty brunette.
With not a loser segment in the bunch, and Morgan's playful interaction with the girls, your customers will surely want to check out this Euro-treasure.

"Nothing to see here..." The great & mighty Oz has spoken !...aka Steve Wexler
It's such a joke. These news actors pretend they care about our community and are responsible journalists and then leave as soon as possible using us as a stepping stone to use their story about an innocent child killed in a drive-by as their promotion to bigger markets. Journalism is dying and JS's branches are included as proven by WTMJ.
Some of the personnel changes at WTMJ may have to do with working for Steve Smith. Since JCI stock went public, Smith hasn't been able to stop its slide in stock value. Some of the slide can be attributed to advertising/revenue issues for the newspaper business (i.e. Journal-Sentinel) but some of it can be attributed to Smith himself and his questionable leadership/management skills.
While I didn't care for his selling off my employer several years ago, which destroyed the company and its culture, in some ways I'm glad not to be under the Journal umbrella. And I'm not the one current and former Journal employee who feels the same way.
maybe they looked in a mirror and saw themselves as looking like you and me and thus realized that they were not living in the real world.
Never understood how anyone's family life could survive the ridiculous hours these people work. No wonder they've become brain-addled closet liberals. Good luck to them all.
Seriously?!? Let's see...give people helpful tips to save money and be better consumers or give them another hour of the Republican mascot (Jeff Wagner)? I don't care if they are adding two extra hours of Clark, I'm not listening to the radio from 11pm-2am. I am removing AM620 from my auto-programming on every radio I own. I guess having the "biggest stick in the state" proves that size doesn't matter...
as long as they hang on to Diane Pathieu, they'll be just fine...
As shown during Mick Trevey's coverage of the budget debate coverage, Mike is an intelligent, insightful and hard working guy. His new employer is getting a gem of an employee. We who watch WTMJ news will miss him. People move on and have the right to decide their own lives for many reasons, so we viewers have no claim on their services. We just should appreciate the good guys like Mike when they are on our TVs. PS, I will miss Lauran's pretty face.
Given the overall talent level has been declining for 15 years, and
the news broadcasts skew decidedly fluffy and liberal, there's no
surprise channel 4 is struggling.
Word of advice--when you hire new people train them how to
pronounce local communities' names. There's no faster way to lose
all likability if an anchor shows they cannot even plan ahead and
learn how to say Menomonee Falls or Oconomowoc properly.
It would be a lot more productive if TMJ4 (and other stations, too) would simply have far few hours of local news. Thirty minutes in the morning, thirty minutes at noon, thirty minutes at 6 p.m., and thirty minutes at 10 p.m. would be more than sufficient.

What's the Buzz
Bare-handed, David Barnes lifted off the top of a wooden beehive and eased out one of half-a-dozen frames loaded with honey bees as several dozen people edged in closer around him Friday during the first day of the University of Florida's Bee College.
He didn't warn them not to try this at home. After all, the purpose of Bee College is to get more beekeepers. He did caution them to remember how they'd feel if someone came along and took the roof off their house.
The beekeepers in training smiled at the notion, but got the point.
About half of them were wearing white beekeeper overalls, hats and veils. Barnes, a state bee inspector with the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, wore a hat and veil, but was casual about the rest of the gear. He'd already used a smoker on the bees to cause disorient and temporarily confuse the colony so they're easier to work with.
"Bees are gentle ... most often they won't get upset," Barnes said, cautioning the beekeepers to be deliberate and calm in their motions when dealing with bees. But, he warned, there are exceptions.
The crowd listened intently, even the ones who have been in the beekeeping business awhile.
As Barnes explained at the start, there are always new things to learn.
Agriculture experts are hoping lots of people learn about honey bees and start keeping bees.
"Never before has there been such a need for more beekeepers," said Dr. Jamie Ellis, Florida's apiary extension expert and the founder of Bee College.
There's a corresponding need for honey bees. In the 1940s there were approximately 5 million colonies, now the estimate is 2.4 million. One study estimates since 1990 about one quarter (almost one million) of all managed honey bee colonies have been lost.
Possible reasons for the loss include mites, pesticides and something known as Colony Collapse Disorder, where bees basically disappear from their colony.
Why the need for honey bees?
It's not about the honey they produce, said Dr. Jamie Ellis, Florida's apiary extension expert and the founder of Bee College. It's about food.
Approximately one-third of the world's food production is dependent on the pollination efforts of honey bees.
"Honey production is, pardon the pun, a drop in the bucket compared to what bees actually do for us," Ellis said. "It's the pollination industry that really is what commercial beekeeping is about."
The pollination industry is people who keep hundreds maybe thousands of colonies that they load in trucks and haul to where growers and farmers need them.
Ellis describes them as "colonies for hire." An almond grower may rent the colonies while almonds are in bloom in that area, then blueberry growers in Michigan want them, then they go to North Dakota for clover and then Florida for melons.
Ellis estimates about two/thirds or 70 percent of pollination is done by commercial beekeepers.
UF's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences aids both hobbyist and commercial beekeepers. By getting people interested in bee raising as a hobby, it's hoped some will then go into the commercial business.
Bee College gets newcomers started as well as providing advanced programs for those in the commercial end. When Ellis began the program last year, about 170 people turned out. This year there are between 220-230 in the program at UF's Whitney Labs across from Marineland.
But Bee College is no easy A.
Beginners find themselves doing hands-on work with bees in addition to learning the basics of beekeeping. Learning varies from spot the queen to artificial insemination of queens. Lab work includes nosema and tracheal mite dissections. Honey extraction, candle making and even Welsh honey judge training are among courses offered over the two days.
David Hall came from Tallahassee to take the course. He and his wife got interested after noticing their small vegetable garden no longer had bees and plants were suffering. Local vineyards said they were having problems with grapes. The more people he talked to about gardening, the more he found people had noticed the lack of beekeepers.
"So my wife and I decided to step in and attack the problem ourselves. I've got so much to learn, but this is pretty good," Hall said, as he headed over to get on of the beekeeper hats and learn first-hand how to set up a beehive.
Virginia and Carl Webb,.on the other hand, qualify as experts. Both are speaking at the Bee College.
In 2005 their honey was awarded the "best in the world" designation at the 2005 Apimondia World Congress. Virginia Webb wears the medal they won for the designation from honey made from sourwood trees.
Carl Webb is an advocate and breeder of Russian bees and thinks they will help increase the genetic pool for queens. The Russian bee is a variation of the European honey bee and was introduced to a section of Russia 150 years ago. It has shown a resistance to mites
After retiring from the Forestry Service, Webb turned the hobby he'd pursued into a full-time business. The couple own about 400 colonies and live in Clarksville, Ga.
If you've ever eaten the honey at the Dillard House in Georgia, you've tasted their product.
"We sell them tons and tons of honey, and they ship it all over the country," Webb said.
And, yes, he does get stung. About 20 times a day.
"Usually I hardly notice it," Webb said.
The Queen - The main bee. The honeybee colony life revolves around the queen. She has her own court that circles around her, grooming and feeding, as she lays eggs. As an egg producer, she's no slouch. In a single day she can lay 1,500 eggs.
The Worker - A female, she is the laborer. It's up to workers to gather the nectar and pollen, feed young larvae, warm and protect eggs, larvae and pupae, supply water, secrete beeswax, build combs. Now you know why it's a compliment to be called a "worker bee."
The Drone - The male honey bee. This is the member of the colony that's most expendable except for mating. Come winter time they are driven out to perish from cold and starvation.
Beekeeping is the oldest agricultural endeavor in the world.
A colony the height of a grown man probably contains 50,000-60,000 honeybees including one all-important queen.
Honey bees are not native to the U.S. They were brought over from Europe beginning in the 1600s.
SOURCE: University of Florida, Dadant and Sons
A disease that makes bees disappear has put the spotlight on the honey bee.
Colonies affected by Colony Collapse Disorder have adult bees disappearing from the colonies.
They leave behind a box full of honey, pollen, capped brood, queen and maybe a few worker bees, according to a University of Florida web site.
The dead bees aren't found in the hive or on the ground, but simply disappear.
There are a number of hypotheses as to what causes CCD including traditional bee pests and diseases, queen source, bee management, mites and pathogens, nutritional fitness, undiscovered or new pets and diseases, chemical toxins in the environment and nutritional fitness.
UF has recently joined international research being done on the problem.
Dr. Jamie Ellis with UF says one hypothesis not being looked at is the idea that cell phones are to blame.
Honey bees may not be native to the United States, but it's another -- and aggressive -- non-native bee people would like to see leave.
The Africanized Honey Bee first was spotted in Texas in the 1990s. A more aggressive bee, the AHB "defends its nests more aggressively, in greater numbers and for further distances," according to a University of Florida report.
It also has people worried because of reports of violent stinging incidents. There are concerns it could affect tourism and recreation in Florida.
There are also concerns the more aggressive bee will push out honey bees and hurt pollination of crops.
At Bee College, first responders and pest control workers are among those taking courses on the Africanized bee and how to respond to it.

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
Ligand Pharmaceuticals is working with CURx Pharmaceuticals to develop and commercialize Ligand's Captisol-enabled™ Topiramate Injection for the treatment of partial onset or primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures in hospitalized epilepsy patients who are unable to take oral topiramate. Per the agreement, Ligand will be eligible to receive more than $21 million in potential net milestone payments and net royalties on future sales of 6.0–7.5%.
"In Phase I trials in healthy volunteers and patients at the University of Minnesota, the product demonstrated a faster onset of action than the orally administered drug," said Dinu Sen, CEO and founder of CURx.
Captisol® is a chemically modified cyclodextrin with a structure designed to optimize the solubility and stability of drugs. Topiramate is sold by Janssen Pharmaceuticals under the trade name Topamax® and is currently available only in oral formulations. The Captisol-enabled Topiramate Injection formulation, which was initially developed at and is exclusively licensed from the University of Minnesota, is designed to provide an intravenous or intramuscular option for hospitalized epilepsy patients. The FDA granted orphan-drug designation to Captisol-enabled Topiramate Injection in July 2013.
"This is another great deal for Ligand and our Captisol technology, pairing our proven formulation agent with an approved medicine to create a potentially novel, important, and highly differentiated drug," commented John Higgins, president and CEO of Ligand. "CURx is highly motivated to advance development with current plans calling for a Phase II trial to commence in 2014."
Ligand has been in the news a lot lately. In March, Spectrum Pharmaceuticals took over the effort to develop and commercialize Ligand's Captisol-enabled, propylene glycol-free melphalan as part of a potentially $53 million-plus global licensing deal. In addition, Ligand's selective estrogen receptor modulator lasofoxifene was the subject of two deals—one with Azure Biotech, the other with Ethicor Pharma—within the same week in July.

Town considers closing middle schoolJanuary 25,2013Guilford considers closing middle school
GUILFORD The Vermont town of Guilford is considering closing its middle school.
If that happens, seventh- and eighth-graders would attend Brattleboro Area Middle School.
The Brattleboro Reformer reports board members are expected to choose between those budgets at a special session scheduled for Sunday afternoon. But a final decision will made by voters at Town Meeting in March.
Supporters of sending the children to Brattleboro say they would have additional education and extracurricular opportunities. They also cite Guilfords declining enrollment.
But middle-school supporters have argued that Guilfords small school supports the local instruction.MORE IN This Just InNORTH BENNINGTON Two public meetings, in North Bennington and Shaftsbury, have been set for...

Agree Rambr0, too often we've gone 1 goal up then thrown it away - it was definitely a worrying pattern last season.
If Lennon can get his act together on the right flank (supported by either Corluka or Hutton, or even Naughton being given a run-out) then Cashley will hopefully have as torrid a time as Evra in the CC final last season :-)) And if he can get his crossing spot on then who knows? I'm pretty sure Defoe will cause them problems too.
No reason not to have Ledders playing - he'll be nicely rested from last weekend's game against Manure. I'm all for individual performances as long as they benefit the team as a whole.
I read that Anelka thinks Chelsea should respect us as an in-form team - at last somebody acknowledges what we're capable of. That said, I wouldn't want to see any complacency creep in to the squad - that can only spell disaster. If our mindset doesn't change and we approach the game in a positive frame of mind bolstered by 4 wins out of 5 then anything is possible.
3pts from the Bridge would be awesome, but agree I'd settle for 1pt as long as we put up a good fight.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

As KM rightly points out its the mindset of our players that will dictate this result. We are certainly capable of getting something from this game despite Chelsk being the in form team at the moment. A lot will depend on how our lads deal with last weeks reverse. If they still have the belief and come at Chelsea then anything can happen. If they dont...then it doesnt bare thinking about.
I'd take a point here thats for sure!

Unfortunately as most bookies have Chelski 1 to 2 on to win and Spurs 6 to 1 I think that says it all.
I wonder what the odds would have been if we had showed up and given Manure a proper game last week.
I do think we are better than 6 to 1 but even so that is a big gap given our great start to the season. Worth a little punt for me I think so I am off to the bookies and leaving them with £20 quid of the housekeeping!

This story was written by Staci D. Kramer.
Nothing says try new technology as much as a release of *Disney* classics in that format, and if anything will drive me to Blu-ray it well could be the original Fantasia. The animation-live-action mix is one of six animated films from the Disney (NYSE: DIS) vault picked to help sell Blu-ray players; the other "platinum" titles the NYT reports will be released over the next two years are Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Pinocchio, previously announced Sleeping Beauty and Fantasia 2000. The DVDs go a step further than the usual gimmicks by incorporating BD-Live, a technology we've written about before that meshes the disc and the internet. That equals interactivityor at least the potential for it. Examples include virtual viewing parties with laptop or mobile chat comments showing up on screen and global trivia contests. The NYT also mentions something Disney calls "movie mail" that allows user video to show up within the "context of the movie."
The goal is to move Blu-ray past the early adopters, Bob Chapek, president of Disney's home entertainment unit, told the Times: "BD-Live is not a niche product. ... We see mass adoption of the technology." It's the same philosophy Disney used to push adoption of the original DVDs by releasing Snow White; it's been off the list since 2001.
But BD-LIve isn't for the masses when it comes to cost; players require ethernet ports and are more expensive than straight Blu-ray.

Millet, the late comer: on the tracks of Panicum miliaceum in prehistoric Greece

* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
Archaebotanical evidence for Panicum miliaceum is reviewed for prehistoric Greece including published and unpublished recent finds, providing a basis for exploring the context of the appearance of millet in Greece, the timing of its introduction and cultivation, and its significance in terms of contacts, movement of people, and cultural identity as expressed through culinary practice and food consumption. To this end, the archaeobotanical record is examined together with human isotopic, archaeozoological, and artefactual evidence. Millet is introduced to the northern part of Greece sometime during the end of the 3rd millennium bc and established as a widely used crop during the Late Bronze Age. Isotopic evidence suggests that millet consumption during the Late Bronze Age was not widespread but confined to certain regions, settlements, or individuals. Millet is suggested to reach Greece from the north after its spread westwards from China through Central Asia and the steppes of Eurasia. The timing of the introduction of millet and the horse in northern Greece coincide; the possibility therefore that they are both introduced through contacts with horse breeding cultures cultivating millet in the north and/or northeast is raised. Intensified contact networks during the Bronze Age, linking prehistoric northern Greece to central Europe and the Pontic Steppes, would have opened the way to the introduction of millet, overland via river valleys leading to the Danube, or via maritime routes, linking the Black Sea to the north Aegean. Alternatively, millet could have been introduced by millet-consuming populations, moving southwards from the Eurasian steppes.

Prevention of HIV Transmission in Breast Feeding Populations

Research Institution:
AbstractDESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The broad long term goal of this project is to prevent mother to child transmission of HIV through breast feeding in resource poor countries. In the developing world, perinatal transmission is greatly reduced through relatively simple expedients such as dosing mother and child around the time of delivery with nevirapine. However breast feeding still accounts for approximately 315,000 cases annually of pediatric AIDS in sub- Saharan Africa. A Phase III trial is underway to study daily oral nevirapine to be given to infants in order to reduce this transmission. We have developed a platform technology for the sustained release of a broad range of drugs by subcutaneous / intramuscular injection that can potentially provide 6 weeks of protection from each injection. A program that incorporates these injections could piggyback onto existing accelerated immunization protocols. The specific aims of this Phase I proposal are to: 1, formulate sustained release suspensions for nevirapine; 2, test the in vitro release characteristics of these formulations into buffer; and 3, test the in vivo pharmacokinetics and the safety of the formulations in rats. The team of investigators is expert in polymer chemistry, pharmacokinetics and drug development. The Vitrasert(r) implant for the treatment of AIDS-related CMV retinitis was developed in the lab of the Principal Investigator of this proposal. The successful completion of this project will lead rapidly to the development of an injectable dosage form that could ideally deliver continuous antiviral blood levels. Completion of these aims will constitute a readily identifiable milestone that will continue in Phase 2, in which we will clarify the pharmacokinetics and safety of the formulation in animal models in order to submit an Investigational New Drug exemption to the FDA.

The Last Story trailer shows off English localisation
The Last Story – Mistwalker's much-requested, long-anticipated, fearfully-delayed and finally-localised Wii RPG – is due at the end of the month. Gaze upon this new English language trailer and be inspired to haul the WiiMotes out of the utility closet.
The Last Story arrives in Europe on February 24, more than a year after its Japanese release and a good two years after we started asking politely to pay money for it. It's the product of Hironobu Sakagushi, once known as the head honcho of Final Fantasy, before his departure from Square Enix in the wake of the the tenth game's release. A US releases is expected if Xenoblade Chronicles shifts enough units.

Hey there,
If you go onto my new website here: http://www.metalrecusants.com you can see that most of the home page turns black and you can't see the sidebar and other content while all other pages work correctly (if you click on interviews, galleries etc.).
I'm using Premium News Woo Theme and the newest version of WordPress... Anyone knows what should I do to make it work again?
Any help much appreciated.
Thank you very much.
