[author: Donald Zuhn]
In a Citizen Petition filed with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration on April 2, Abbott Laboratories requested that the FDA refrain from accepting biosimilar applications under the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act (BPCIA) that cite reference products (biologics) for which a biologics license application (BLA) was submitted to the FDA prior to March 23, 2010. The BPCIA, which provides an approval pathway for biosimilar biological products and constitutes a portion of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act that was signed into law on March 23, 2010, allows the FDA to accept biosimilar applications four years after a reference product has been licensed and to approve such applications twelve years after the reference product has been licensed.
In its Petition, Abbott specifically asks the FDA to:
[C]onfirm that it will not accept for filing, file, approve, or discuss with any company, or otherwise take any action indicating that the agency will consider, any application or any investigational new drug application (IND) for a biosimilar that cites, as its reference product, BLA 125057 for Humira® (adalimumab) or any other product for which the biologics license application (BLA) was submitted to FDA prior to March 23, 2010, the date on which the BPCIA was signed into law.
Abbott explains that the FDA should refuse biosimilar applications for all pre-enactment reference products, including its own biologic Humira®, because to approve such applications would constitute a taking under the Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which requires just compensation.
Noting that "the reference product sponsor has invested massive amounts of capital . . . and has taken great risk to develop, test, and seek a license to market the reference product," Abbott argues that "[a]n innovator's resulting license application typically reflects more than a decade of research and contains analytical, preclinical, and clinical data, as well as detailed manufacturing information, most of which qualifies as trade secrets," and contends that "[t]hese trade secrets are the private property of the reference product sponsor and are therefore protected by the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution." According to Abbott's Petition, "[w]hen FDA approves a biosimilar biological product on the grounds that the reference product has been shown safe, pure, and potent, it uses these trade secrets."
Abbott also notes that when it submitted its BLA for Humira® in 2002, the company "had no notice, or reasonable expectation, that the agency would use its trade secrets to approve another company's product," and in fact, had "developed and submitted those trade secrets in reasonable reliance on FDA's lack of legal authority to approve biosimilars, confirmed by years of agency statements that it lacked such authority." The Petition suggests that other innovators who submitted pre-enactment BLAs also "reasonably expected -- on the basis of applicable law and agency statements -- that the trade secrets contained in their applications would not be used to benefit a competitor." Abbott argues that "[u]nder well-established Supreme Court jurisprudence, FDA's use of the trade secrets in pre-enactment sponsors' BLAs to support approval of competitor products would frustrate these sponsors' investment-backed expectation regarding their property and would constitute a taking under the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution that requires just compensation."
With regard to whether the information in a BLA constitutes a trade secret, the Petition explains that the Uniform Trade Secrets Act (UTSA), which has been adopted (with minor variations) in 45 states and the District of Columbia, defines a trade secret as constituting information that (a) derives independent economic value from not being generally known to, or readily ascertainable using proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use, and (b) is the subject of reasonable efforts to maintain its secrecy. With respect to the first prong, Abbott states that "maintaining the secrecy of the data and information in a license application gives the submitter an economic advantage, because the license holder's competitors cannot obtain approval of a competing similar product without undertaking an investment of similar magnitude or compensating the innovator for a right to reference that information and data." As to the second prong, Abbott notes that "biologics innovators go to great lengths to ensure that the data and other information submitted in their applications are not publicly released, whether inadvertently or purposefully, or otherwise accessible to potential competitors." Abbott, therefore, contends that the information submitted to FDA -- including analytical, preclinical, and clinical data to support a marketing application -- constitute trade secrets.
According to the Petition, as of February 2012, the FDA had received 35 requests for pre-IND meetings for proposed biosimilar products for eleven different reference products, had held 21 pre-IND sponsor meetings, and had received nine INDs. Indicating that it "believe[s] that some (if not all) proposed biosimilar product applications that have been or will be the subject of such meetings will reference innovator biologic products that were approved via BLAs submitted prior to March 23, 2010," Abbott argues that the constitutional issue raised in its petition is "both timely and urgent." Abbott also expresses a belief "that at least three companies have begun preclinical and/or clinical testing of biosimilar adalimumab," but notes that it "does not know whether FDA is advising any companies about the contents of a biosimilar application citing approval of Humira[®]."
Abbott asserts that even if the biosimilar applicant receives no information from the FDA regarding the contents of an innovator's BLA, the approval of a biosimilar application based on the approved biologic results in a taking. In particular, Abbott contends that:
Any FDA approval of a biosimilar application necessarily uses the trade secrets that were submitted in support of the BLA that the biosimilar is referencing. Such a use occurs even though the BPCIA directs FDA to base approval of the biosimilar product only on information in the biosimilar application and directs the biosimilar applicant to include in its application only publicly available information regarding FDA's prior finding of safety, purity, and potency for the reference product. The approval of a biosimilar necessarily relies on and uses the trade secrets that the innovator sponsor submitted in support of the BLA. Were it not for those trade secrets -- generated at great effort and expense by the sponsor -- there would be no pioneer biologic for the biosimilar sponsor to reference.
The Petition further argues that:
FDA's reliance on its earlier finding that the reference product is safe, pure, and potent -- to grant another company a license to market a competing biosimilar product -- diminishes the economic value of the reference product sponsor's trade secrets that made the finding possible. The trade secrets generated at great risk and expense by the first entrant lose value and provide a diminished competitive advantage if the government can simply proceed with approving competitor products on the basis of subsequent applications that omit trade secrets comparable to those required of the reference product sponsor.
Abbott notes that "[w]ithout the [innovator] company's efforts to create the trade secrets in the BLA, the license 'simply would not exist,'" and "FDA's reliance on the finding accompanying the license is therefore reliance on the underlying trade secrets." Abbott argues that "FDA may not, in other words, separate the 'public finding' [of a biologic's approval] from the underlying data."
Citing Ruckelshaus v. Monsanto Co., 467 U.S. 986 (1984) -- which involved Monsanto's submission of trade secret data to the EPA in support of its application to register a pesticide -- Abbott argues that:
[W]hen an applicant submits trade secret data as part of a license application, at a time when the government has provided assurances through law, regulation, and/or agency guidance that the data will not be used by the agency to benefit a competitor of that applicant, later "consider[ation of] those data [by the agency] in evaluating the application of a subsequent applicant" would frustrate the applicant's "reasonable investment-backed expectation" that the data would, instead, remain inviolate.
Abbott notes that in Monsanto, the Supreme Court "first acknowledged that trade secrets are property protected by the Fifth Amendment's prohibition on taking private property for public use without just compensation," and determined that Monsanto had a reasonable, investment-backed expectation that the EPA would not use data submitted to it between 1972 and 1978 (when the statutory scheme prohibited the EPA from publicly disclosing an applicant's trade secret data) for the benefit of a competitor.
Abbott contends that "approving biosimilars of pre-enactment reference products would take the trade secret property of an identifiable class (i.e., pre-enactment reference product sponsors) and impose a very large financial liability on the United States," adding that "retrospective application of the BPCIA would call the statute's constitutionality into question." Abbott suggests that the FDA should therefore "apply the BPCIA prospectively only." The Petition concludes by requesting that the FDA "interpret the BPCIA as applying only to post-enactment reference products, thereby avoiding both significant constitutional questions and significant governmental liability."

Barrel horse for sale
Kate is a unregistered QH mare that is a decent barrel horse. When I went away to college two years ago, I quit running her as my interest in dressage increased. I have recently decided to sell her to a good home only for $1500 so she can do what she loves. She averaged between a 16 and 18 barrel run and a 21 or 22 second poles pattern. She is also a awesome trail horse. She is blind in one eye but it does not affect her running at all. Here are some body shots.

Fibre should be an important part of any balanced, healthy diet, but many of us don't eat anywhere near enough of it.
Fibre is so important to us as it can help manage our appetite by keeping us feeling full, while it is also useful for our digestive system. Indeed, those of us who eat plenty of fibre will see a reduction in our chances of developing bowel cancer.1 There are many reasons why we don't eat enough fibre, although a key issue is the high level of industrial processing that carbohydrate foods are subjected to.
Fibre is an indigestible carbohydrate found in plant-based foods, and as our bodies don't absorb it, it can help us to stay feeling satisfied for a long period of time after eating.
How fibre works
As fibre passes with other food through our bodies, it will largely be unchanged by the time it arrives in our large intestine.
There are two different forms of fibre, and while both are good for the body, both have different uses.
Soluble fibre helps move waste through the body, and at the same time it can help reduce the cholesterol in our blood stream. It can also slow down the speed of our digestion and the release of blood sugar into our bloodstream, which can help boost our energy levels.
Great sources of soluble fibre include oats, barley, beans, lentils, peas, strawberries and other berries, okra, aubergines, citrus fruits such as oranges and grapefruits, pears, apples, plums and cruciferous vegetables such as Brussels sprouts and turnips.
Insoluble fibre on the other hand helps to produce healthy bacteria in our bodies, which softens our waste and increases the bulk of it, which makes it easier for it to pass through our intestines. This reduces the risk of constipation, and can also help avoid IBS and even bowel cancer.
Common foods high in insoluble fibre include unrefined whole grains (especially wholegrain bread and cereals and wholemeal pasta and rice), fruit and vegetable skins, (think apples, grapes, plums, cucumbers, peas, beans, corn etc) and vegetables such as cabbage, lettuce, onions and bell peppers.
Tips for increasing the fibre in your diet
One of the best things you can do to eat more fibre is to keep your cupboards stocked up with wholegrain products, especially pasta, brown rice, wholewheat crackers and seeded bread. You should plan your meals in advance if you can, starting with a high-fibre cereal such as muesli, which offers a combination of soluble and insoluble fibre. Porridge is a good option too, and if you add fruit to the top of either of them, your fibre intake will increase even further.
Ensuring you get your five-a-day will also help. Fruit and vegetables contain most fibre before they have been cooked, so eating some of them raw will be even more beneficial. If you fancy a snack, try eating dried nuts, raisins, or wholemeal biscuits.
You can also use lentils, barley and brown rice when making stew, casseroles and soups, while adding mixed beans to a salad will also provide a big fibre boost. When increasing your fibre intake, you should look to do so gradually to ensure you don't suffer from bloating or stomach cramps. You'll also help your digestion if you drink six to eight glasses of water a day.

|Release PaxExam Karaf Testframework 0.3 .0
|Fri, 21 Oct 2011 06:24:15 GMT
Hey Guys, I've finished the third feature release of the Pax Exam Karaf Testframework today and pushed it to maven central (should be there within the next hours). You might want to give it shot if you need to do integration tests on Karaf base. It is as simple as adding the following to your pom... <dependency> <groupId>org.openengsb.labs.paxexam.karaf</groupId> <artifactId>paxexam-karaf-container</artifactId> <version>0.3.0</version> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.ops4j.pax.exam</groupId> <artifactId>pax-exam-junit4</artifactId> <version>2.3.0.M1</version> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> ... reference your karaf based distribution ... <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.karaf</groupId> <artifactId>apache-karaf</artifactId> <version>2.2.4</version> <type>zip</type> <scope>test</scope> <exclusions> <exclusion> <groupId>org.apache.karaf.shell</groupId> <artifactId>org.apache.karaf.shell.dev</artifactId> </exclusion> </exclusions> </dependency> ... and the following configuration section ... @Configuration public Option[] config() { return new Option[]{ karafDistributionConfiguration().frameworkUrl( maven().groupId("org.apache.karaf").artifactId("apache-karaf").type("zip").versionAsInProject()) }; } ... and your integration tests will run on the framework you've just configured. The full documentation could be found here [1]. The changeset of the new feature release could be found here [2]. Have fun and don't hesitate to report any problems you encounter at this list or here [3]. Btw, all sources are under Apache 2 License here [4] and will be included in the karaf 3 release. It's just out of the ASF repos right now so that it can be developed/released in faster cycles. BTW, hopefully this is the last release outside the ASF. I'll start to replace our current integration tests at Karaf and merge the source into the trunk by next week... Special thanks go to Andreas Kuhtz for all his feature requests and bug reports. Thanks Andreas!

Canon PowerShot SX50 HS Digital Camera Review
Canon reaches the 50x mark, making few sacrifices to image quality along the way
Super-zoom cameras have long been the butt of jokes here at the office, as the market continues to demand ever-longer zoom ratios, and manufacturers are forced to respond. The results are long-zoom cameras with magnification capabilities that were already silly a year ago, and have since passed full ridiculousness.
The reason why we smirk at these cameras is because when zoom ratio goes up, image quality has a tendency to take a nosedive. That's not always the case, Panasonic's FZ series is immune, and so is today's review: the PowerShot SX50 HS. This camera is far more than its 50x gimmick, it tested very well, and the shooting experience is a lot of fun.
The SX50 is available in black for $479.99.

Although America entered the Vietnam War with some of the world's most sophisticated combat aircraft, the majority of their missions involved conventional bombing and fighter engagements that employed quite similar tactics to those previously used in the Korean War and World War 2. The real step change in aerial fighting came with the use of air-to-air and ground-to-air missiles. Developing methods of defeating the latter involved the rapid evolution of technology and tactics which, over twenty years later, would enable the USA to win the air war over Iraq in Operation Desert Storm in a matter of hours.
During the Vietnam War, the appearance of Russian SA-2 missiles around Hanoi in 1965 alarmed US officials. Initially reluctant to attack the missile sites, the increasing toll of US aircraft and the ways in which the SA-2s inhibited bombing tactics meant that new methods of dealing with the sites had to be developed quickly. Electronic reconnaissance aircraft had some success with jamming of the missiles' guidance systems at long range, but the real solution lay with an aircraft that could detect the radars at closer range, offer itself as a target to the missile sites and attack them before missiles could be launched at US bombers.
F-105Fs equipped with new technology quickly became an essential addition to all USAF strike missions over North Vietnam. Using new Shrike and Standard ARM anti-radiation missiles and radar detection equipment developed by the US Navy, the F-105F and its more sophisticated successor, the F-105G, continued their hair-raising battles with North Vietnamese missile batteries throughout the rest of the Vietnam War.
Here, author Peter Davies recounts the dramatic contests between these newly outfitted F-105s and the missile sites in Vietnam in a highly illustrated account, drawing on first-hand pilot experiences and technical manuals to present a full history of the technologies and tactics of both sides.

Published: March 18, 2014 - 06:40 PM
WASHINGTON: Cheaper energy kept consumer prices in check in February, despite a big rise in the cost of food, the latest sign that inflation is tame.
The consumer price index rose 0.1 percent in February, matching January's increase, the Labor Department said Tuesday.
In the past 12 months, prices have risen just 1.1 percent, down from 1.6 percent in January and the smallest yearly gain in five months.
Excluding the volatile food and energy categories, core prices rose 0.1 percent last month and 1.6 percent in the past year.
"There isn't much in this report to suggest inflation is about to make a move to the upside or downside," said Michael Feroli, an economist at JPMorgan Chase. He added that the measure called core inflation has been below the Federal Reserve's 2 percent target for the past year.
Energy prices fell 0.5 percent because lower gasoline and electricity costs offset higher prices for natural gas and heating oil. Clothes and used cars were also cheaper last month.
Still, consumers took a hit at the grocery store as food costs rose 0.4 percent, the most in nearly 2½ years.
Beef prices jumped 4 percent in February, the most in more than 10 years, as recent droughts have pushed up cattle feed prices. Milk, cheese and other dairy prices also rose.
The drop in the annual inflation rate to 1.1 percent was announced Tuesday as the Federal Reserve began a two-day policy meeting, its first under new leader Janet Yellen.

On 22nd May 2012 the world celebrated the International Day for Biological Diversity. This yearly event focuses on one area of biodiversity in the hopes of raising awareness and increasing practical action in local communities. This year's focus was 'Marine Biodiversity' which created a perfect opportunity for GVI Seychelles to join forces with local projects and organisations. Together they created a community event to help educate local children and celebrate the abundance of marine biodiversity, which can be found around the many islands of the Seychelles.
During the day the local students were given the opportunity to have a one on one guided snorkel with a GVI volunteer around the marine park, where they were taught to identify different fish and corals found in the shallow waters on the coral reef. Other activities involved mangrove safaris and a chance to try out scuba diving equipment.

The bloodied passengers of Asiana flight 214, which crash landed in San Francisco on Saturday, waited a full 90 seconds for the order to evacuate the wreckage, it has emerged.
According to safety reports, pilots initially decided to keep all passengers inside the jet after it skidded to halt - an order that was reversed after a flight attendant spotted a fire outside the craft.
As a result, the grinding stop of the craft and the opening of the first cabin door was separated by a minute and half of wasted time, according to the safety board's timeline.
Investigators added that it was a further 90 seconds before emergency crews begin filling the plane with fire-retardant spray to stem the fire that would eventually rip through the cabin.
Government officials and safety experts have said the blaze did not add to list of fatalities because it did not reach the fuselage until most passengers had successfully escaped the area.
The crash itself reportedly killed two Chinese teenagers, Ye Mengyuan and Wang Linjia, who had been sitting in the rear of the plane, where many of the most seriously injured passengers were seated.
But police are now investigating whether one of the pair survived being thrown from the plane on impact and died only after being run over by a responding emergency vehicle.
Speaking yesterday, a senior safety official described the confusion on the ground after the Boeing 777 struck a sea wall and lost its tall on its descent into the airport.
"It seems a little unusual that the crew would not announce an order to evacuate after a plane crash," National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Chairman Deborah Hersman said. "We don't know what the pilots were thinking."
Ms Hersman also confirmed evacuation slides injured a flight attendant and hindered escape after inflating inside the aircraft as it bounced along the ground in a 360 degree spin.
She added that the pilot, who was landing a 777 at San Francisco for the first time, claims he was blinded by a light at about 500ft (150m) - about 34 seconds before impact and the point when the Boeing began to slow down.
The possibility that the flash was caused by a laser was not being ruled out, Ms Hersman added.
US investigators are continuing to review flight data and video footage, and have interviewed all four pilots and those flight attendants that are no longer in hospital.

Finally, Debian chose* systemd as default init systemd, bye bye upstart
systemd already has a wide adoption withing the GNU/Linux distribution with all major distros including openSUSE, Fedora, Arch Linux, etc using it as their default init system. Upstart was either way not getting much support from the free software community due to the restrictive CLAs Canonical requires which is often criticized by the community. With Debian going* for systemd, it will get even more developer power whereas Canonical will be left alone to deal with Upstart along with many more project that it's trying to do on its own – including the recently discussed File Manager which may replace Nautilus (Files).

Of all the athletes crowned as world champions in Seville these past 10 days, none will carry a greater burden away from Andalucia than the Australian winner of the women's 400m. Freeman needed no reminder of that as she sat by the banks of the Rio Guadalquivir on Friday morning. She got one anyway, though. "The Sydney Olympics are only 13 months away now..." her first questioner began. Freeman winced and rolled her eyes skyward.
If she had worn a vacant expression the night before, after resisting the late challenge of Anja Rucker to become the first woman successfully to defend the world 400m title, it was entirely understandable. Freeman has been in Seville only in body this week. In spirit she has been miles away - some 10,000 miles away. As she put it: "This is all a dress rehearsal for Sydney."
When Freeman returns to Australia, after her last race of the season in Rieti a week today, she will do so as the golden girl under pressure to come up with another golden run on home soil in the Olympics. Racing her rivals will be only half the battle. And coping with the weight of public expectation could be the more difficult half.
"I realise that the pressure is going to be tenfold in Sydney," Freeman said. "It's going to be much, much crazier. I knew if I couldn't deal with all the pressure here I certainly wouldn't be able to deal with it next year. That's why I was just really relieved last night. I was just glad that the whole thing was over.
"This is the first time I've gone into a championship at world level as the favourite and I've been torturing myself with worry. I ran really, really scared. I've never run that scared before, not even when I was running as a child with my brothers. Like I said, I know it's going to be 10 times this next year. I just hope I can handle the off-the-track stuff."
And Freeman is sure to have a lot to handle. At 26 she has been a national icon for five years now - since she won the 200m and 400m at the Commonwealth Games in Victoria, becoming the first Aborigine athlete to win a major track and field title. The girl from a broken home in an impoverished Murri community in Mackay, north Queensland, was Australian of the Year in 1998, an honour bestowed upon her by the Prime Minister, John Howard, at the annual Australia Day ceremony. She will be carrying the hopes of the host nation on her well-defined shoulders when the Sydney Olympics open on 14 September 2000.
"The demands on Cathy next year will be huge," Brian Roe, the Australian team's media manager, said. "She's big news in Australia at all times anyway. She can't walk in the street without being stopped by everyone."
She can, though, in Hampton Hill. And it is in the Thames-side hamlet that Freeman is likely to be found in the summer build-up to Sydney 2000. Last year she bought a house in the London suburb and she intends to make use of it to escape what she calls "the pressure pot of my own country."
That pressure pot will hardly have been eased by Freeman's success in Seville. As she dug deep in the home straight, holding on grimly after pulling clear in that delightful skipping style of hers, she became the first Australian to win two world titles. Rob de Castella, winner of the marathon in Helsinki in 1983, is the only other Aussie athlete who has been on top of the World Championship podium.
On Friday morning the victory that brought the broadest smile to Freeman's face was not her own but that of her people. Her success in Seville just happened to coincide with a formal apology in the Australian Parliament in Canberra for 200 years of injustice suffered by the country's indigenous population. "I'm so happy," Freeman said. "It's such a significant moment for the indigenous community of Australia and for all Australians. It really means a lot."
Freeman's mother, Cecilia, was one of Australia's "stolen generation", as the Aborigine children separated from their families by government policy became known. It is little wonder Freeman flouted team regulations by taking an Aborigine flag on her victory laps at the 1994 Commonwealth Games and 1997 World Championships. She had no need to in Seville because the colours of the flag - "black for the people, red for the land and yellow for the sun" - are now displayed on her specially designed running shoes.
She also has a tattoo on her right arm bearing the legend "Cos I'm Free." A Freeman and a free woman she may well be, but Australia's golden girl has 13 months of imprisonment by public expectation ahead of her.Reuse content

Luis Suarez AGAIN talks up Real Madrid switch from Liverpool
LIVERPOOL star Luis Suarez has yet again used his time on international duty with Uruguay to put his name forward to play for Real Madrid.
Suarez is desperate to push through a move to the Spanish capital this summer, which Liverpool are insistent will not occur for less than £40million.
And while the 26-year-old admitted he currently has no agreement with the La Liga giants, he again showered praise on the club during an interview with Madrid-based newspaper La Pais.
Are you afraid of the chance to play for Real Madrid?
No, I have never felt pressure, but obviously that doesn't mean I'm going. I am a Liverpool player.
Every player would love to get to the absolute top and Real Madrid is it
What would a player like you give to a team like Real Madrid?
I'd give my soul in every match as I do every time I set foot on the pitch, be that for Uruguay, Ajax or Liverpool. I never hold anything back.
Do you have an agreement with Real Madrid?
No, I have a contract with Liverpool.
Would you like to have an agreement with Real Madrid?
A player always aspires to the top, and Madrid are always one of the highest ambitions for any footballer. Every player would love to get to the absolute top and Real Madrid is it. But, do you know what it is like to represent Liverpool?
Fernando Torres said that you have to set foot on the Anfield turf to understand.
It makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck to think about it. It is a big club on a global level, but we didn't qualify for the Champions League nor did we fight for the Premier League, which is where the club has to be. And the club knows that I have suffered and struggled with what I have had in the Press.
