N.Z. Dollar Falls as Bernanke Comments Prompt Flight to Safety
Joseph CiolliThe New Zealand dollar fell to its lowest level in almost eight weeks after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke defended the U.S. central bank's asset purchases, decreasing demand for risk assets.
The so-called kiwi declined versus all 16 of its most-traded peers after Bernanke said the Fed's unprecedented stimulus actions are supporting economic expansion with little risk of inflation or asset-price bubbles. Australia's dollar also fell against most major counterparts following Bernanke's comments, erasing an earlier advance that came amid increasing metal prices.
"The New Zealand dollar is badly underperforming," Adam Button, a currency analyst at Forexlive.com in Montreal, said in a telephone interview. "We saw a knee-jerk reaction to buy U.S. dollars and sell commodity currencies after Bernanke's comments."
New Zealand's dollar depreciated 0.9 percent to 82.63 U.S. cents at 2:31 p.m. in New York after falling earlier to 82.24, its lowest level since Jan. 4. The kiwi fell 0.7 percent to 75.93 yen after reaching 75.18, its weakest since Jan. 28.
The Australian dollar decreased 0.1 percent to $1.0243 after declining to $1.0201, its lowest since Oct. 10. The so-called Aussie was little changed at 94.21 yen.
The MSCI Asia Pacific Index declined 0.6 percent. The Standard & Poor's GSCI Index of raw materials fell 0.8 percent.
New Zealand's dollar has strengthened 2.2 percent this year, the third-biggest increase among the 10 developed-nation currencies monitored by the Bloomberg Correlation-Weighted Indexes. The Aussie has gained 0.7 percent, and the U.S. dollar has increased 2.5 percent.

Town Square
Thank you, John!
Original post made by Hal Bailey, another community, on Jan 30, 2008
It is time to thank John Edwards for his impact on the perspective of the Presidential campaigns. His commentary has impacted both party's candidates and established the voice of USAmericans in the contents of the campaigns. Without John's commentary, "Change" would only have meant a change of face in the White House and more at-odds relationships with our nation's people.
Change now means a global viewpoint on economy, community and humanity that starts with service to the needs, interests and advisory of USAmericans. John McCain must now move from his "more of the same in a violent world." Barak Obama must move away from Oprah's SPIN on USAmerican interests. Mitt Romney must move to a moderate center that serves USAmerica's majority. Hillary Clinton must be straight-forwardly intelligent in her views expressed to USAmericans.
We likely are losing our best qualified candidate, but John leaves his mark on the 2008 campaigns.
Thank you, John,
Hal Bailey

Shilpa Shetty in Temple trouble
Indian actress and reality television star Shilpa Shetty reacted furiously to allegations she was involved in a film shoot that breached protocol at a Hindu temple.
Authorities at the Sakhigopal temple in Puri last week lodged a police complaint about the Bollywood star and her crew filming inside the sacred building, press reports said.
But Shetty, who shot to fame over a race row on the British television show Celebrity Big Brother in 2007, dismissed the charges as "preposterous."
"We didn't even shoot in the temple, and the channel obviously took permission to shoot at the footsteps without which we couldn't have proceeded," she wrote on her blog on Saturday.
"I still don't know why the FIR (first information report) is in my name because I was there hired as an actor to perform for the channel."
She described the dispute as a waste of time when India had "a huge backlog of more important judiciary matters" and said she had been brought up to behave properly in and around temples.

I don't know how I missed this piece http://www.thepostgame.com/features/201102/nolan-smith-bringing-showtime-duke [1] on Nolan Smith and the Duke program, but it is a really good insight into how the Duke program has changed over the past few years (for the better), how Coach K continues to adapt to the times, and most specifically, the journey of Nolan Smith as a player and person at Duke.

Comments: I received this ring for my 25th wedding anniversary and was absolutely blown away. It is breath-taking. The stones are beautiful. The setting is PERFECTLY rendered. The prongs don't catch on material OR my hair. It is well balanced and doesn't roll around on my finger. I absolutely love this ring and don't want to take it off!! It would make a perfect engagement ring. This will definitely NOT be my only purchase from this company!
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Treasury Prices Recover From Earlier Losses
From Standard & Poor's Equity Research
MARKETSCOPE : Treasury prices recovered from initial losses Thursday, as investors watched economic indicators and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke's testimony.
The 10-year Treasury notes were yielding 5.02% at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time from 5.07% at 9:00 a.m. and 5.05% at Wednesday's close. The 30 year bonds were yielding 5.07% from 5.12% at 4:00 p.m. and 5.10% Wednesday. Yields move inversely to prices.
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke testified on Thursday to the House committee, but would not be pinned down on the question of whether rates will rise when the Federal Open Market Committee meets Aug. 8. Wednesday he told the Senate committee that rates will ease as the economy moderates.
The Philadelphia Fed business index fell to a lower than expected 6.0 level in July from 13.1 in June. The index is now at its lowest level since January.
News hit earlier Thursday that Initial Jobless Claims fell 30,000 to 304,000 in the week ended July 15 from a revised 334,000 the week before.
The Conference Board reported that its Index of Leading Economic Indicators rose 0.1% after falling 0.6% in May, marking the first rise in three months.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics said the median weekly earnings of the nation's 105.9 million full-time wage and salary workers rose 2.5% to $659 in the second quarter, which is less than the 4.0% increase in inflation as measured by the CPI for All Urban Consumers. Women who usually worked full time had median earnings of $593 per week, or 81.1% of the $731 median for men.

Walczak's new TV ad highlights his anti-casino stance
Do you want a casino, along with the problems they create?
That question is posed at the start of a new televised ad by mayoral candidate Bill Walczak, who is hoping to draw a sharp distinction between himself and the other candidates over a proposed Boston casino.
The ad—Walczak's third of the campaign—will begin airing at 6 p.m. today on cable and local stations in Greater Boston, including on NECN during the first and only televised mayoral debate. The event is sponsored by the Boston Herald, Suffolk University, and NECN. All 12 candidates are expected to attend.
The ad opens with showing an animation of a spinning slot machine. After the narrator poses the question, the slot machine stops showing images of six candidates who support a Boston casino—John Barros, former executive director of the Dudley Street Neighborhood Initiative; former state representative Charlotte Golar Richie; state Representative Martin J. Walsh; and city councilors Felix Arroyo, Mike Ross and Rob Consalvo.
The machine rolls again showing a question mark and images of Daniel Conley, the Suffolk district attorney, and John Connolly, another councilor.
"These two candidates can't make up their minds,'' the announcer says.
The next image shown is of Walczak, who the announcer says is the only mayoral contender who has said he will stop the casinos.
"This ad is simple and draws a sharp contrast between candidates in this race," Darek Barcikowski, Walczak's campaign manager, said in a statement. "There is no other issue in this race that is as divisive as the casino issue – and we want to make it clear Bill is the only candidate opposed to a casino in Boston."

A federal judge will not speed up the briefing schedule in the American Civil Liberties Union request that she lift a stay on gay marriages in Wisconsin.
U.S. District Judge Barbara Crabb on Wednesday said she would stick to the current schedule, which gives Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen until Thursday to file an appeal to the request that the stay be lifted.
The ACLU argued the stay should be lifted because Van Hollen is delaying filing an appeal to her original June 6 ruling declaring the gay marriage ban unconstitutional.
Van Hollen has until July 21 to appeal Crabb's ruling striking down the law, something his spokeswoman has said will be done by the deadline.

Categories Comments Food and Dining Their food is pretty good! There's an ice cream station and I really enjoyed that!
Dorm Life When I visited the dorms over the summer the smells were vile. However, when I slept in the dorms for the encounter the smell wasn't there. I liked the big living room area on each floor. The beds were pretty uncomfortable though.
Academic Rigor I haven't started college yet so I don't know.
Tips for prospective students Always introduce yourself and make an impression, it's a small campus so you'll be remembered or at least recognized.

Clubs and Activities The community is very lively with plenty of activities to get involved in.
Bang for the buck All and all a great atmosphere, Christian faith is empowering and I've already started using my knowledge I've obtained from the university.
Food and Dining The food is average, the cafeteria Is huge with plenty of access to all you can eat ice cream.
Dorm Life There's always a smile on everyone's faces, the dorms are comfortable and welcoming.
Academic Rigor professors expect students to be involved in their studies. I spent many nights studying for hours the material is all need to know basis.
Tips for prospective students Create a relationship with your professor they will be more helpful then you think.
In three sentences A beautiful Christian community with nothing but nice genuine people, professors at the top of their academic game, and a relaxed campus a home away from home.

Categories Comments Campus Safety There is a campus safety patrol car surrounding the campus everyday, as well as safety on campus. There are emergency telephones every half mile out in every direction. At night all the gates are closed, this campus is very safe and you feel safe as soon as you set foot on the campus.
Clubs and Activities There are many clubs and activities, although there are no sororities there are countess clubs! Latina Club, Star Wars Club, Asian Flavor, Mathletes, etc. There are so many clubs the list can go on, you will find the club that is right for you at this University.
Great for these types of students This school is great for outgoing students who love class and love working hard. This school is also great for shy students because this school can get you out of your shell! Fresno Pacific is a great school for any and all students.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Every year Fresno Pacific takes school trips to the beach, Disneyland, and many other places for discount prices of what it would regularly be. They also do an open act where the top three placers win scholarship money. All of these are very fun and help explore the rest of California not just Fresno, CA.
Bang for the buck Fresno Pacific is expensive but I would say it's worth the price. This college will look great on your resume for any job you are applying for. The school itself may be small but the quality of learning you are getting equals it all out.
What to do for fun Fresno Pacific's campus has a lot of green grass and trees! There is a huge patch of grass in the middle of campus and sometimes they set up a big screen and show a movie on the green. They also do a lot of intramurals such as: powder-puff, boxing cardio, yoga, frisbee, and many other things. The school has many events and clubs. Every day there is something to do. If you just want to do something alone there are many places on campus where it is quiet and peaceful.
Food and Dining Fresno Pacific's cafeteria is open to students on campus as well as commuters. The cafeteria is set up like a buffet, and it is all you can eat! Every day the cook tries new things and the students are allowed to give feedback on weather they enjoyed the food or not. They even serve ice cream and desserts. There is a sandwich bar where you can make your own sandwich, kind of like subway. There is always a salad bar for those salad lovers, and last but not least there is always pizza and pasta! The entrée of the day is the only thing that changes daily. The cafeteria is Fresno Pacific's best quality, well at least to me.
Dorm Life The dorms are five stories high and the girls are on the left while the boys are on the right. The dorms are a great way to make new friends. They also have competitions every month to keep the living space exciting. The people you room with will become like family to you. This is probably one of the best experiences at Fresno Pacific University.
Academic Rigor It would be a very bad idea to skip lectures because Fresno Pacific teachers are there to teach you. The lectures are long and detailed so if you miss one you miss a big chunk of things you would need to know. Fresno Pacific's academics are no game, you attend this school to learn.
Tips for prospective students If I had any tips I would say don't skip out on class. I would also recommend living on campus at least for your first year. My last tip would be not to be afraid of people, everyone at Fresno Pacific is there to better themselves and the others around them.
In three sentences Fresno Pacific wasn't my first choice because I knew I wouldn't be able to afford it, but they were generous enough to loan me a scholarship to help pay for my tuition. This University has a positive outlook on everything, and the teachers are equals to students. It is small, parking is great, and everyone is friendly.

Categories Comments Campus Safety The campus is surrounded with gates. Codes are given to students for driving gates and walking gates. Also, there are several cameras on campus to watch activity and anything that appears suspicious. The main doors to the dorms are locked on weekends with the dorms to enter the different floors of the dorms locked as well. The Campus Safety Staff ensure that the students are safe. If called, they will walk you back to the campus from your car or to your car from campus. Additionally, if you would like to run on the track, you can inform them that you will be there so they are able to keep an eye out if you feel the need to do so. The campus is an all around safe place to be due to the care given to the students by the professors and other staff.
Clubs and Activities There is a club or activity for every student to join. From the Moving Arts club to the intramural sports, every type of student is represented. There are academic, cultural, performing arts, and athletic clubs for any student to join.
Bang for the buck Since FPU is a private Christian University, the cost of tuition is high. However, the input is worthwhile for the return. Many students are able to find internships, jobs, and volunteering opportunities due to the university and the networking abilities of its faculty.
What to do for fun FPU has several events. There are different events for commuters and students living on campus. For example, there is the Encounter (high school students come stay the night in the dorms with current students), Mountain Top Worship (a band performs while students are able to worship with Christian music), Costume Contests (and various other contests during Halloween), Decoration contests (for Holiday decor), Twas' the Night Before Finals (various games, pancakes served with other free food, and free scantrons/goodie bags handed out to students), and various other events. Also, there are several athletic events during the week to go and support student athletes.
Food and Dining At FPU, the cafeteria always has at least one thing for you to eat. The many different buffet selections include: burritos, deli, rotisserie, ice cream, buffet bar, fruit and salad bar, soda machine, chocolate and regular milk, hot chocolate, coffee, and various breads and bagels. Meals are served three times a day, giving students the opportunity to grab a bite between classes quickly, or slowly if they have a nice break between classes.
Dorm Life The dorms connect the students to the campus. There are several events scheduled for students living on campus. These events bring students together and enrich their college experience. The dorms give students closer relationships to students because they are living together. Study groups tend to be easier to make because the dorms are only a couple steps away from all of the studying opportunities on campus.
Academic Rigor The classes are able to be handled well. They are college level courses, but are easily handled with the help offered on campus. If you stay on task, then the academics will be pretty simple. Their are many opportunities on campus to form study groups and meet with professors. Also, there is an Academic Support Center (ASC) which allows students to come and receive help from other students for different subjects such as writing, math, history, and science. The computer lab, STEM computer lab, and library are open late hours to give students the capability to study for their needed times.
Tips for prospective students Living on campus should be highly considered. Opportunities to see how wonderful this experience will be can be seen through the university's Encounter and Accepted Day. The experience enriches your college experience and allows you to connect better with more students. also, becoming involved with several clubs and programs gives students the opportunity to network which will aid with their present and future job searches. Lastly, go to class and meet with your professors. Each professor will have office hours set up because they want to see you in their office so that you are able to pass their class with understanding of the criteria.
In three sentences Fresno Pacific is a community in itself. Each professor gives their students equal opportunity to succeed in their classes. The social and academic aspects of this university intertwine, giving students the ability to balance their education and future lives.

Great for these types of students religious and teaching majors/social workers
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The forest is the best place on campus. especially, if you love being outdoors. there are also pretty fountains all over the campus, do an explore and find how many there really are.

What to do for fun there are formals and different sport events to attend.
Food and Dining the food from the café is good.
Academic Rigor Most classes are intense but you learn so much from all of them.
Tips for prospective students Take advantage of travel, learn about the professors and where they have been.
In three sentences It is a great and beautiful place. Fresno Pacific gives great opportunities to travel with the study abroad programs it has. The professors I have had up until now have been amazingly helpful.

Clubs and Activities There is a wide range of sports and activities on main campus for students to get involved in.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus They have multiple campuses. There is the main Fresno campus as well as four satellite campuses in Visalia, Bakersfield, Merced, and North Fresno.
What to do for fun There is not much to do on the Merced campus that we can do for fun.
Food and Dining We supply our own food for classes either before, after, or during classes.
Dorm Life I live off campus.
Academic Rigor Classes are amazing. All the teachers are helpful when needing help on homework or anything else. The teachers are all available outside of class when having any questions or complications.
Tips for prospective students I recommend that everyone who thought they never would or never could go back to school. Fresno Pacific is the school for you.
In three sentences It is fun and amazing. The satellite campus in Merced is so easy to find and the staff their is amazing and helpful. I would recommend this school to anyone and everyone who is interested in transferring or going back to school.

What to do for fun Take a blanket and lay out in the quad area and just take in the beautiful surroundings the campus offers.
Tips for prospective students Take the classes seriously and dedicate at least four days a week to reading, homework, and online posts. If you're not careful the classes will get away from you.
In three sentences The teachers go above and beyond to meet with students in helping us understand the coursework. The staff in the front office make you feel at home. The coursework was never an information overload.

Categories Comments Campus Safety All thought the area in where the campus is located it not the safest place in Fresno I feel very safe with how the campus is secured.
Greek Life The campus does not have fraternities nor sororities.
Clubs and Activities The clubs and activities that are held on campus are amazing because they are always giving out food and shirts for FREE. When they do field trips they keep the cost at the most minimal.
Great for these types of students The students who are willing to succeed and ready to gain their faith in GOD. Faith in GOD gives them the faith to believe that they will succeed in college.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus There is a commuter lounge for all the commuters and residents are welcomed. The seminary and the chapel are quiet places for when you need a moment of peace. You'll find peace in happiness all over the campus. We are one of the 3 places in the world who have the pendulum. If anything happens to your family that you need financial help the campus has a fund specifically for those situations.
Bang for the buck Although the tuition is over 12,000 per academic semester, the amount of education and experience makes your moneys worth. All the activities are cheap and there is always FREE things which makes you save money.
What to do for fun You find the FUN at Fresno Pacific. When you study you make it fun. I personally like the campus because the activities they do are not a lot to the extreme that they will distract you from your school responsibilities.
Food and Dining As a commuter you have to buy your lunches or a meal plan. I have become more responsible about my self. I remember every morning to make food for myself. Not only does it make me more responsible but it provides me the chance to meet different people.
Dorm Life I am commuter, but it is like I were to live in the dorms. I have created friendships that have me in there dorms most of the time I am on campus.
Academic Rigor Before I came here I thought the material was going to be difficult indeed the study time is consuming but it is easy material if you know how to study. Create study methods and you will succeed and will enjoy your college experience.
Tips for prospective students Do not judge the school by what it appears to be, give it a chance by going to the encounters and other activities. Come here make friends who will not distract you from being successful. In a University it is okay to be selfish.
In three sentences Fresno Pacific is not what it looks from the outside. I used to think everyone who attended the University were snobby kids but in reality they are talented smart scholars. The staff care about your performance in the class that acknowledge you outside of class.

Greek Life Pretty non-existent. We have both an Alpha Chi and Phi Alpha Theta chapter on campus, however as a dry campus the usual party-style Greek-Life is not allowed.
Clubs and Activities There are numerous clubs an causes on campus to help you get involved, learn, and make a difference.
Great for these types of students -Prospective Liberal Arts students -Prospective Ministry Students -Prospective Musical Students -Students who wish to go to a religion-based school
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Ring before spring... ;)
Bang for the buck Like I said before, it can seem a bit pricey but the quality education you will receive will pay for itself in the end.
What to do for fun We have sports teams, clubs, and mission trips that you can get involved in. In addition, we are fairly close to Yosemite if nature is more your style.
Food and Dining The food can be a hit or miss in the cafeteria. But right across the street we have a Spanish grocery store, a Japanese restaurant, and a Grecian Deli. Going hungry is never a real concern around here.
Dorm Life The only complaint that I've heard about the dorms is that there is sometimes a lack of things to do. But hey, you have plenty of time to study and if you really have fun you can always find something to do! ;)
Academic Rigor As a private university, FPU has very high academic standards and is considered to be much more rigorous than many other schools.
Tips for prospective students Come try out the college on one of our Encounter nights. For a small fee, you will be able to spend the night in the dorms, sit in on classes, and eat with current students in the cafeteria. If you like it--maybe FPU is the place for you, if not then we are happy that you came to spend a fun night with us.
In three sentences Fresno Pacific University is a great choice if you: a) live in the Fresno area, b) are interested in obtaining your degree or credentials in the liberal arts, c) are at all interested in religion or ministry, d) just want to attend school in a small community -based environment. Tuition is a bit pricey but totally worth it. The class sizes are much smaller than State schools and the professors here are very personal and approachable.

Academic Rigor So far this university has met all my expectations. They have offered many resources, such as writing tutors and workshops, for their students and I have taken advantage of many of them. This university is well worth the price.
Tips for prospective students Don't wait until the last minute to transfer. Give it at least a couple of months for the enrollment process. The staff have been so nice in rushing everything for me and I am truly grateful.
In three sentences Fresno Pacific University is a very professional college. The staff made the enrollment process easy and fast. I am really glad I made the decision to transfer to this college.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Campus safety is so-so. Campus is in a very bad part of Fresno.
Clubs and Activities Choir is fun and you can get a scholarship for participating.
Great for these types of students Liberal studies and Psychology I believe are the main majors here. This is a private school founded by Mennonites, so it has christian based morals here.
Bang for the buck Very expensive school.
What to do for fun Fresno has a lot of things to do such as clubs, the grizzlies games, concerts, etc. On campus not a lot of fun things except for the game room and the coffee shop that has a starbucks in it. I like to go to the Sports teams games on the weekends.
Food and Dining I decided to make my own food because I did not like the cafeteria when I had a meal plan.
Dorm Life The campus houses are very old and not that nice. The Modules and dorms on the campus are very nice but also very expensive.
Academic Rigor Some classes are difficult some are not depends on the teacher.
Tips for prospective students This school is expensive try to get a lot of scholarships from doing sports, clubs, or music.
In three sentences This school has a really beautiful campus. The teachers I have had take the time to help you. I think having small class sizes is really great.

Categories Comments Bang for the buck FPU is a great school! FPU provides financial aid which makes attending FPU affordable. Scholarship opportunities are always available.
What to do for fun Fresno Pacific provides an hour dedicated for activities. Activity hour is a great timet to hang out with friends or grab a bite to eat. There are always activities people can participate in, for example, bowling night.
Food and Dining Everyone has access to the prepared food that the Fresno Pacific cafeteria provides for a low cost. Home-cooked meals are prepared daily. Once you purchase your meal ticket, you can get food as much as you want!
Dorm Life I do not live in the dorms.
Academic Rigor There is a lot of material being covered so it is important to stay on track. Reading over class notes really helps you do well on quizzes and exams. Read the textbooks that are assigned for the classroom beore your classroom meets, it helps you learn the material better.
Tips for prospective students Speak with your advisers, they are helpful. Get to know your teachers, they care and want you to succeed. Take courses that interest you so you are more engaged and interested in school.
In three sentences Fresno Pacific's teachers are very caring and helpful! The campus at Fresno Pacific is peaceful. Classroom sizes at Fresno Pacific are small enough so the teachers can get to know the students well.

Categories Comments Food and Dining Sadly, the dining choices in the hall are very slim. There is a pizza bar, salad bar, sandwich counter and a burrito bar, along with a hot line at every meal. This may sound like a lot, but trust me. It gets old fast. The food is just mediocre.
Dorm Life Dorm life is amazing! I can't say enough about how amazing living on campus is. Of course, campus living is NOT for everyone, but if you are community-oriented and love being around people, dorm life is the best!
Academic Rigor The rigor here is just right for me! It is not too easy, but not too hard. For some, it may be too easy but if you are looking for an easy way to get quality education, FPU is the right place for you!
Tips for prospective students Apply early! Get a letter of recommendation from your pastor.
In three sentences Fresno Pacific is a top-notch Christian university. Everyone I've come in contact with is caring and loving, including the professors, students and staff. I am so glad that I chose FPU.

Categories Comments Campus Safety They have a round the clock security. It shouldn't be ignored that FPU is located in one of the worst parts of fresno but that has nothing to do with the campus community.
Great for these types of students Students who don't want to be in a class of a 100+ people.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus College hour is an experience that enlightens students whether they are christain or not.
Bang for the buck The school is expensive though for a private school it is a little on the low side - but if you compare it to a CSU or UC the sticker price is high but the school has so many scholarship opprotunities especially for students with high GPAs and test scores. They also have institutional aid that is specific for transfer students based on their academic performance.
Food and Dining The food is so good! They have a great variety! There is even food for the health nuts out there.
Dorm Life Most modules are three to a room. The atmosphere and community you get from living on campus I think is a huge part of the college exxperience.
Academic Rigor The classes that I sat in on seemed to have very informed profeesors who paid attention to each students as a whole. The class sizes are small which means that you have more time to communicate with the professor than you might at a large public school.
Tips for prospective students Visit the campus! There is an event called The Encounter that happens 3 times a year in Oct, Nov and Feb where you can stay on campus for two days sleep in the modules (that's what they call dorms), met professors firsthand sit in on classes, eat in the cafeteria, meet your admissions counselor.
In three sentences The atmosphere at this school is so welcoming. The admissions counselors and everyone on campus is so friendly. It is small (extremely small almost the size of a high school but that just makes it more personable and easy to get around in) and close knit community.

Categories Comments Food and Dining The food was awesome. It was like the cafeteria at UCLA on a smaller scale, but just as delicious.
Dorm Life I only stayed in the dorm for one night, but it was really fun. The people are really nice (again, I can't really attest to every single dorm atmosphere, but mine was great). Also, the activities like Mod Feuds for Freshman were super exciting and a fun way to get to know the other students.
Academic Rigor I believe the classes are pretty challenging, I have a sister who goes there and I do know the teaching program is awesome. A lot of local teachers totally love having FPU grads for student teachers as opposed to ones from the local CSU.
Tips for prospective students Visit before you submit your application, it'll help you decide if you even like the place, which is great. FPU is nice because The Encounter is a super fun reason to go, and it's only $25 and waives our application fee.
In three sentences After visiting FPU at The Encounter, I would love to go here! The atmosphere is awesome, the food is great, the class sizes are small, and the activities are really fun as well.

Tips for prospective students Give it a shot!

Categories Comments Campus Safety Honestly, this is a school you can leave your laptop to go to the restroom without worrying about theft. My friend left her laptop in the Cafeteria and it was there the next morning. The school also has cameras around campus and is gated.
Greek Life There are no sororities or fraternities.
Clubs and Activities There are several clubs where you can join and meet new people. There is always free food.
Great for these types of students Students who want to become teachers or anyone interested in biblical seminaries. There is also a really good business program. If you want to go to private Christian school or graduate in four years with a Bachelors, Fresno Pacific is perfect. You can take on about 17 units a semester and graduate in that time. Classes are smaller and very nice.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus We have a College Hour which is kind of like a mini worship service on Wednesdays and Fridays. Our university Pastor and the worship bands are great. We have guest speakers and you just learn a lot because everyone is so inspiring.
Bang for the buck The school's tuition is around $25,000 - $26,000 a year but there are scholarships almost every students gets that helps. With financial aid and my scholarship from school, 20/25 of my tuition is covered yearly. That is because I actually have the lower scholarship from FPU because I didn't do so well in high school. Most people who have a a 3.6 gpa in high school will get a better scholarship which can help cover all of their tuition. FPU has the best financial aid.
What to do for fun The Commuter House for Commuters is really great. Students who commute to school can just go there and relax. You can cook food there, use the computer, watch television, and even nap. If you're a student who lives on campus, clubs are a great thing as well. The school's coffee shop / starbucks is always open during school as well.
Food and Dining If you live on campus you will have a meal plan. If you're a commuter student, you're out of luck because lunch is $7. The food is fair. You have salad, pasta, the basics, subs, ice cream, and then the meal which changes.
Dorm Life I do not live on campus but most of my friends do and like any dorm you want to have a roommate that you are comfortable with.
Academic Rigor Some classes are tough, but teachers are great. Many classes require essays and reading which you should not procrastinate on.
Tips for prospective students There are opportunities for jobs on campus and they are really great. There is a 4 year graduation guarantee that you should sign up for. The library is a great place to study, but there are multiple places to study as well like lounges and even outdoors. There are also opportunities to study abroad as well that I hear are life-changing.
In three sentences It's a beautiful small campus with the most wonderful community and it is definitely not your average private Christian University. The staff and faculty are very interesting and friendly. FPU emphasizes on community development and building leaders tremendously.

Academic Rigor High rigor, whichs means an excellent education. There is sufficient support. Professors love to help.
Tips for prospective students *take advantage of the easy acces to professors *Join a club

The welcoming atmosphere, sense of belonging and variety of activities and opportunities enrich students' spiritual, intellectual, emotional and physical lives.
Academic Rigor Fresno Pacific University might be a smaller school that the UC's but it matches up and goes beyond that of many when it comes to academic opportunities. Fresno Pacific offers 27 majors in more than 60 areas of study. Fresno Pacific also has 4 campus locations in the Valley.
Tips for prospective students Get involved in as many activities and events as you can. That's the best way to meet new people and to make new friends.

Categories Comments Campus Safety There is a 24/7 hotline and Campus safty is always available and have a fast responsive time.
Great for these types of students Students who have a christian faith can find that here. There are nights when the students come together over in worship. Sometimes students gather outside and sometimes in the Auditorium.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus There is an event called That Thing at FPU there are skits performed by students for students and it is all around good time to see your Friends acting goofy.
What to do for fun Fresno Pacific offers plenty to do off and on campus. There is midnight bowling at discounted prices and there is ice skating days as well. Fresno is also a big city with the fair grounds 15 minutes away and the mall even closer.
Food and Dining There is an Iceream bar, Burrito bar, Sandwhich Bar and a Pizza Bar, what more can I say. There is also a Hot Plate line that has a daily theme like meals like Italian, American and Chinese. I gave four stars because there are a few bad days in the kitchen with flavorless food.
Dorm Life Living in East Hall was a great experience and with a diversity of people it made it more interesting. The rooms are larger than a other college dorm rooms I have visited which is a plus. I also like that there is a common living area for each floor and extra security where I lived.
Academic Rigor Although it may be a small university, however what it lacks in size it makes up for in academics. We as students are encourage to think at a critical level and engage in discussion in often creative ways which makes it more enjoyable.
Tips for prospective students I would say that it is worth the money to live on campus at least for a semester or even a school year.
In three sentences Fresno Pacific University is a one-of-a-kind experience with a close nit community that anyone and everyone can enjoy. Not only do professors know you by name, they want you to succeed. Because it is also founded on Christ, one can find an atmosphere of peace, even if your not religious.

Categories Comments Campus Safety I always receive updates if there is a power issue or traffic construction nearby. There is always a security guard on campus and I have always felt safe. The parking lot is well lit and the guards will assist you to your car if you feel it is necessary.
Great for these types of students ANY!!! The degree completion program is especially amazing for returning students and students who work.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Fresno Pacific has class locations in Fresno, Lemoore, Bakersfield, Hanford, and Visalia. I was more academically focused but the school is a Christian college. You are required to take 3 Biblical studies courses. I loved them. They are taught on a historical context and they made every history class I ever had make since.
Bang for the buck Fresno Pacific is not outrageously priced. In fact, after I calculated gas, books, and down time spent, I would have paid more to attend our local UC. The books are included in the program and we only had to meet once a week. I was more academically focused but the school is a Christian college. You are required to take 3 Biblical studies courses. I loved them. They are taught on a historical context and they made every history class I ever had make since. Not to mention, the cohort classes I was enrolled in gave me the support and motivation I needed to succeed. We just pushed each other through and it went so fast. I loved it!!!
What to do for fun Fresno has several local entertainment options, including dancing, dinners, and shows. I attended the cohort program and we had fun in our groups. We took turns bringing dinner and spent plenty of time talking, sharing, and laughing throughout the learning process.
Food and Dining Unknown on campus but we all share meals during our cohort and we are able to find local food nearby. Our classes have all included time where we can eat!!! I love that!
Dorm Life Unknown
Academic Rigor They push you but not more than you are capable. They also provide so much support that there is no possible way of failing. If you just take one assignment at a time, it is completely do-able. Most of my cohort worked while attending the program and they preformed amazingly.
Tips for prospective students Apply early and don't be afraid to call or email your support staff for assistance. The school also has a program where you can send in pieces of your assignments for help with writing, if you need it. The school has so much support and guidance, there is no excuse to not attend. Call one of the centers or attend an informational meeting to gain more insight. Furthermore, the staff are willing to meet you to discuss your options and help you apply. Finally, FILL OUT YOUR FAFSA!!! Watch for deadlines and use resources like Capex and Fastweb to help find additional funding if necessary. Remember, after college, you have a greater earning potential so just go for it! The confidence you gain is priceless!
In three sentences This school provides amazing support and fellowship! Beyond the hands on learning, personal growth and understanding, and community awareness, you will find self-actualization and increased confidence. Attending Fresno Pacific was the BEST decision I ever made!!!

Greek Life Non existent
Clubs and Activities We just entered the NCAA II for athletics and have recently been growing our cheerleading squad. We have intramural, geared toward the less competitive athletes. We have academic clubs, such as the mathletes and the classics, and the free-time clubs, such as Fuego, a Latin American dancing club.
Great for these types of students Fresno Pacific is great for all students. Whether you are a Christian or not, Fresno Pacific welcomes you. We are one of the most diverse private universities, with a total of 33 countries represented on campus. We have a total of 27 majors and over 60 areas of study.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus There is a fountain near the music faculty office and for years, any man who became engaged was picked up and dropped into the fountain. My freshman year of college, they removed the water to fix the piping. One day, a man in concert choir proposed to his long-term girlfriend in class. All the men proceeded to lift him up, carry him outside and then threw him into the empty fountain and emptied bottles of water on him.
Bang for the buck Although Fresno Pacific is a private university, They provide a lot of financial aid. My financial aid packet was almost three times the size it was for state schools. 98% of the students who apply will receive some form of financial aid.
What to do for fun There are always events on campus. Our school puts on bowling nights with themed costumes and beauty pageants for men to participate and women to laugh. They take trips to Disneyland, costing a total of $40 for the charter bus ride down and the ticket into the park. There is always something to do and people to see.
Food and Dining The cafeteria caters to students of all tastes. They do well at feeding multitudes. Although nothing compares to a home-cooked meal, they come very close. I love the cafeteria and coffee shop
Dorm Life Living on campus has created an atmosphere for life long friendships. The girls I lived with my freshman year are the same girls I am living with this coming senior year. They are my best and closest friends and I have on campus housing to thank for that.
Academic Rigor I was faced with some of the hardest courses I have ever taken in my life at Fresno pacific. Professors see past students who skate by. They expect more and challenge you further.
Tips for prospective students Do not lose focus. Academics are priority. Extracurricular is fun but academics prepare you for the future and will get you farther.
In three sentences Fresno Pacific is a Spirit-filled campus seeking to further knowledge and relationships, stretching students beyond their norm and comfort and aiding students in their hunger for higher education. Fresno Pacific University is a life changing campus, always encouraging students in success and goals. One of the best decisions I have ever made was to attend Fresno Pacific University.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The MCC sale occurs every April and it is currently one of the biggest in the state. Students, staff members and members of the community come together to put on a a huge sale lasting several days that attracts people from all over including other states. Mock Rock is a night where students can perform lip syncs and dances for prizes. The end of the year BBQ wraps things up with good food and fun games. The Green is a huge grassy area on campus where people lay out, play games and hang out.
Bang for the buck It is private so it is expected to be expensive but if a small intimate class setting is what you want, it is worth it. You get smaller class sizes, teachers who actually know you and interact with you and you're basically guaranteed the classes you need.
In three sentences Small and peacefully intimate learning experience. Tight-knit community-style campus. Founded on Christ.

Categories Comments Bang for the buck Yes, it's expensive. As a private university, the state doesn't pitch in to cover some of the cost like with state colleges. However, a degree from FPU is known to carry a bit more weight than one from other schools. The education and great experiences you'll get from FPU are worth the money.
Food and Dining FPU food is great. Our cafeteria food is made by a team of people who run a catering business. We eat better than a lot of other college students. Of course nothing beats mom's or grandma's cooking, but the food at FPU comes pretty close.
Dorm Life Live on campus! There are tons of local students as well as a big number of international students. Stay on campus over the weekend (freshmen, you can handle not going home every week) and meet students from other countries.
Academic Rigor The small number of undergrad students on campus means small class sizes and professore that actually pay attention to your work. You definitely won't be able to coast through under the radar. The professors care about your success and will challenge you through homework, papers, and tests.
Tips for prospective students Be prepared to get involved! There are only about 2,500 undergrads on campus, so it's easy to build relationships with other students and faculty through intramurals, college hour, and encounter nights. It'll really help you later when you need letters of recommendation from professors!
In three sentences FPU is the perfect school for students looking for a college that places equal importance on academics and building relationships. The school's motto is Founded on Christ and it is lived out everyday on campus by students, teachers, and faculty alike. If you want to get a world class education while meeting incredible mentors and amazing friends that you will keep for life, Fresno Pacific is the university for you.

Great for these types of students Students with diversity
Bang for the buck It's an expensive school, but most likely the cheapest private school in California by far.
What to do for fun They have intramurals for students who are not in sports.
Food and Dining I don't eat much on campus, but when I do they have somewhat of a variety to choose from.
Dorm Life I don't live on campus so I can't really say, some dorm buildings are pretty old though.
Academic Rigor Excellent, some classes may be tough, but nobody said college was going to be an easy road!
Tips for prospective students Take a tour of the campus if you are still skeptical! It has a nice small setting to it and the teachers are wonderful.
In three sentences Good school located in the heart of Fresno, CA. Great atmosphere filled with intelligent students and faculty. It is affiliated with Mennonite Brethren, (a Christian denomination).

Categories Comments Campus Safety Considering that the campus is located in one of the worst parts of town the security for the campus is pretty good. Granted there have been a few things happen, but its the same everywhere. We have campus security who students can call from their cell if something needs to be handled, and they are available round the clock.
Clubs and Activities There are a different array of things to be involved in, whether that's student activities, student leadership, part of the student body council, sport teams, or just part of a living module. There are also a variety of different music programs that range from choir to pep band.
Great for these types of students FPU is great for all types of students whether you're studious or more of a social person. With classes that suit your major and activities to part-take in everyone is able to find something to do.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Fresno Pacific University is home to what is known as the MCC sale here in Fresno, CA. It's a giant Mennonite gathering in which there are multiple arrays of food, entertainment and auctions of hand made quilts and blankets. At the main campus there is something that the students refer to as the forest which is a section of all trees and small tables in which students can go to talk, study, do homework, or at night just enjoy the quietness of the campus.
Bang for the buck The cost is kind of expensive, but one must have to remind themselves that it is a private Christian university, and Fresno Pacific usually provides multiple scholarships to its students. I would say a good portion of the students at this school have a scholarship from the school, if not multiple. However one downfall would be the cost of room and board and the meal plan. It was a bit expensive, and it seemed that if I was going to pay that much money there should be better quality of food more often than not.
What to do for fun There are various inter-mural sports that students can partake of. These include: flag football (boys), powderpuff football (girls), indoor soccer, volleyball, basketball, and ultimate Frisbee. There are also different clubs. What I like to do is hang out with my module and just have fun with friends. There is a game room on campus with a big screen tv a ping pong table, a foosball table, and a big pool table, however it sometimes gets a little crowded there. On nice days most of the students go out onto what we call the green, which is a long stretch of grass in front of the cafeteria, and either complete homework or just lay out there tanning and talking to friends. There's also a small cafe students sometimes hang out in.
Food and Dining I won't lie, the cafeteria food wasn't all that great, but there were some days where they had some good choices. It was a buffet style where students would be to pick certain options. There were also multiple stations such as a place where someone would make you a sandwich, a burrito bar, and a chef's corner where a different item was each day.
Dorm Life My dorm experience was amazing. The Freshman girls are all put together in a giant building and the sense of community among each other is great. The dorms are definitely some of the nicer ones among colleges. Living with 25 other people does take some getting used to but it's definitely worth it.
Academic Rigor Overall this school had good courses and great professors with knowledge of their specific fields. I however didn't find the classes I needed. Since I am a Criminal Justice major finding criminal classes at a private Christian university was fairly difficult, but if you're a liberal arts major or psychology major than you're good to go.
Tips for prospective students My first and most important tip would be for incoming freshman, even transfer student, would be to live on campus. It's such a different experience if you're living on campus that if you're commuting. You get to meet new friends and just be more involved. Also, take the time to get the help you need. Ask questions. The classes are small enough so that you have time to get the assistance you need. Also, be involved!
In three sentences Fresno Pacific is a small, friendly, and overall good school. The size allows students to become familiar with not only their classmates but also with the faculty as well, and the ratio for professors to students is ideal for good learning. Overall I loved this school and the spiritual aspect definitely helped me during my college years.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students There are literally all kinds of people here. This is a Christian school, but I know non-Christians who love it here. While there seem to be a lot of students from California here, especially from Fresno, there are also a lot of out of state and international students.
Tips for prospective students Get good grades and you'll get great financial aid! Also, auditioning for a music ensemble can get you even more financial aid, even if you don't think you can make it (like me). Go to the Encounter!!! You can visit classes, hang out with current students, spend the night, eat in the cafeteria (ice cream!), participate in module feuds, audition for music groups, and get your application fee waived. Do not pass this up just because of the price or location. Apply, see the financial aid, go to the encounter. You have to see it to believe it.
Bang for the buck The financial aid is great. The cost looks high upon first glance, but it's about right for a good four-year, private, Christian university. After financial aid, the value is just that more amazing.
Am enjoying being here The environment here is totally amazing. The campus is nice and there are tons of awesome people here. When they tell you that FPU is all about community, believe them. It's awesome.
Am learning a lot This is definitely true. It's a bit tricky to compare to other colleges here, though, since I've never been to any others. The professors here are very enthusiastic about helping students to learn their subject matter.

Tips for prospective students Get to know your professors! The egalitarian ethos of Mennonism makes student-professor interactions more personal, and small class-sizes allow professors to get to know students better. The professors and the community are two of the best parts about FPU. Also, get involved on campus; there are always fun activities going on. If you are struggling in school, go to the Academic Support Center: it provides tutoring, academic coaching and disabilities services, not to mention free coffee, snacks and computers for printing.
Bang for the buck I love it here, but it is rather expensive. It is, after all, a private university.
Am enjoying being here YES. I've met amazing people, had wonderful professors, and thoroughly enjoyed my major (history).
Am learning a lot I'm learning a lot, but I'm not sure that the standards are up to par with some other institutions. One of my friends is looking into grad schools, and he said, for example, that two semesters of a language course here are about equivalent to one at most other colleges. Of course, it all depends upon what your major is; the liberal arts, music and (I think) math and science majors are excellent. The history department is great, but perhaps a little understaffed. Like most universities, how much you get out of your education at FPU depends upon how much effort you put into it.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Christians. People who like getting to know others. People who like being able to get to know thier teachers on a one on one basis.
Tips for prospective students VISIT THE CAMPUS!!! Take a tour or meet with an admissions counselor.
Bang for the buck Our senior president of this past year had said that you will never be in a place as special as Fresno Pacific. He continued on to explain what he meant and I could not have explained it better myself. He meant that never again will we be able to be in such a close community of people. FPU is a place of fellowship and community. The students, staff, faculty, and even the surrounding community of Fresno attribute to the uniquness.
Am enjoying being here I am very involved on campus. From being a commuter to living on campus FPU makes sure you have the best experience. As part of a member of student activities, the commuter council and working as an intern at the front desk of the undergraduate office I can say that FPU strives to make students have a great college experience. Commuter council is always doing activies for commuters to get more involved on campus.
Am learning a lot The biology program is challenging. No prehealth student ever has free time because they are always studying to get a good grade.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Not every student attending FPU is a Christian so if you aren't or you aren't sure but this school still sounds like the one, then go for it. Students who are open minded, community centered and willing to help others are going to fit right in.
Tips for prospective students Don't be intimidated by the price tag, FPU offers many scholarship opportunities and even a work study program. Do your research, just because it sounds nice doesn't mean its the school for you. Living on campus is a great way to meet new people, become more involved with you school programs and to grow as an individual.
Bang for the buck If you are willing to pay for the private college experience Fresno pacific is worth it. you will find yourself immersed in a Christian environment in which you can grow spiritually and academically.
Will enjoy being here The students and staff are all friendly and offer you a warm, welcoming environment.
Will learn a lot The student there seem to really love it, the campus is beautiful and the classes are small enough for one on one learning so you don't feel left behind. The school offers many various programs all with an underlying message of faith and God.

The Texas Rangers weren't the busiest team at the trade deadline last week, but they made some beneficial moves. The club was able to ship off closer Joakim Soria for two highly touted pitching prospects and trade Jason Frasor for more starting pitching. Show More Summary
The Angels had the ideal hitter at the plate in the bottom of the 10th inning Saturday night when Howie Kendrick stepped in against Texas Rangers reliever Jason Frasor with the speedy Josh Hamilton at first base and no outs in a tie game.
KEY MOMENT: Josh Hamilton reached on an infield single to lead off the bottom of the 10th inning and took off for second on a full-count pitch to Howie Kendrick, who lined a run-scoring double to left-center field off Jason Frasor for his fifth career walk-off RBI.
The landscape of the Toronto Blue Jays has changed drastically since Alex Anthopoulos took over as general manager following the 2009 season. In fact, Casey Janssen, Jason Frasor, Ricky Romero, Adam Lind, Edwin Encarnacion and Jose Bautista are the only players from that year that are currently with the big club. Show More Summary

Update: TOR -- Toronto claims to be banking on young Sergio Santos as their 2012 closer, but that didn't stop them from re-acquiring one of their old closers yesterday. Jason Frasor returns from the White Sox to back up Santos in the 2012 Blue Jay bullpen. (1/2/2012)
The Toronto Blue Jays have made a lot of small moves over the past week to bolster their bullpen after an abysmal season in 2011.

All of a sudden, Chicago White Sox GM Kenny Williams picking up Jason Frasor's option begins to make some sense. In fact, it's given the White Sox further returns on a deal made this past July.

Jason Frasor played seven-plus seasons for the Toronto Blue Jays before he was traded to the Chicago White Sox as a part of the three-team trade that brought Colby Rasmus to Toronto. In his 17 innings with the White Sox, he allowed 31 base runners and ten runs. Show More Summary
The Chicago White Sox were presumably looking to pare down payroll this offseason. With that assumption in mind, yesterday's move by GM Kenny Williams becomes a bit of a head-scratcher. The White Sox picked up the $3.75 million option on reliever Jason Frasor for the 2012 season. Show More Summary

The Twelfth Girl
Published Feb. 25, 2014 in Grim
About the Story: "The Twelfth Girl" is my urban fantasy retelling of "The Twelve Dancing Princesses." Instead of being set in a fairy tale kingdom, my story takes place at a girls' school, where twelve girls who live together in one dorm go out every night through a secret passageway to dance at an exclusive city nightclub.
About the Anthology: Inspired by classic fairy tales, but with a dark and sinister twist, "Grim" contains short stories from some of the best voices in young adult literature today.

Ghost Town
Published June 18, 2013 in Defy the Dark
About the Story: "Ghost Town" is set in the fictional location of Pinnacle, Colorado, which is loosely based on where I grew up. And although this is only a short story and not a giant historical novel, it was inspired by The Night Watch by Sarah Waters, which takes place in reverse chronological order. Yep, I basically wanted to tell a story backwards. It was a fun challenge!
About the Anthology: The seventeen original stories in Defy the Dark, an eerie, mind-bending YA anthology, could only take place in darkness.
Open the pages and discover: A creepy guy who stares too long. The secrets of the core of the earth. Dreams of other people's lives. A girl who goes mad in the darkness. Monsters in Bavaria. A generational spaceship where night doesn't exist. And other mysteries and oddities.

About the Story: "One True Love" is a fairy tale-like story that begins with a prophecy and a stepmother, as many fairy tales do. It soon twists and turns into something else, and asks: What if the prophecy didn't mean what everyone thought it meant? And what if the stepmother fell in love with her stepdaughter? Read more about it here.

It's human nature to wonder about life's twists and turns. But is the future already written—or do you have the power to alter it?

Natural Selection
Published Sept. 3, 2013 as a digital exclusive novella. Part of the Adaptation series.
Before she met her girlfriend Reese, before she knew the role she would play in the fate of two worlds, Amber was a fifteen-year-old Imrian torn between two identities. Imrian by blood, Amber was forced to hide her true self to pass as human during the time she spent on earth. And even when she returns to Kurra, her human experiences, including first love and heartache, still separate her from her fellow Imrians. But when Amber undergoes kibila, a traditional Imrian coming-of-age ceremony during which Amber will choose her name and identity for the next fifteen years, she will be forced to either accept her role in both worlds or forge her own path.
Malinda Lo's digital exclusive novella companion to Adaptation and Inheritance takes readers on a journey through Amber's past, giving fans a glimpse into her life on Kurra and a deeper understanding of one of Adaptation's most compelling characters.

By 2015, sales of biosimilars in the United States are expected to reach as high as $2.6 billion. Recognizing this market opportunity, biotech companies of all sizes are devoting significant resources to developing these biologic products, which are novel yet dependent on currently approved biologic drug products (at least in part). Following the passage of the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act (BPCIA) on March 23, 2010, an entity seeking to bring a biosimilar product to market now has two pathways to consider for securing Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval. One pathway allows the biosimilar applicant (BA) to seek FDA approval of the product as a new biologic by filing a biologic license application (BLA) under § 351(a) of the Public Health Service Act (PHSA). Alternatively, the BA can follow the newly enacted abbreviated pathway under PHSA § 351(k), which created a new approval pathway for biologics that the FDA determines are "biosimilar" to a BLA-approved reference product (RP). This second option has been available since the passage of the BPCIA on March 23, 2010, yet the FDA still awaits the filing of the first § 351(k) application (referred to as abbreviated biologic license application – "ABLA").
The statutory language of the BPCIA outlines the structure of the pathway, but contains minimal guidance on the standards used by the FDA to determine biosimilarity as required for ABLA approval. Faced with this uncertainty, it comes as no surprise that BAs have been hesitant to test the ABLA approval pathway. In a first step toward addressing this uncertainty, on February 9, 2012, the FDA released three draft guidance documents on the development of biosimilar products. These guidance documents were published in the Federal Register on February 15, 2012, with a 60-day period for comment ending April 16, 2012. Commentary and reaction to these long-awaited guidances have been mostly negative, with common criticisms being that these supposed "guidances" provide only broad conceptual ideas, lacking any sufficient detail to set BA expectations, and do not resolve any uncertainty over the FDA's decision for awarding ABLA approval. Despite the lack of explicit guidance in the documents, the FDA does provide some clarity regarding the most pressing of issues facing BAs in the early stages of biosimilar development. Whether intentional or not, the FDA message that manifests from this clarity is that there is little to gain, but much to lose, by following the ABLA pathway.
